my dictionary goes to 25
dlfox, there is a 11
is there only 3 ma8's?
phantom: machinist

owwww lovely ch8!
Hows the baby coming, sprite?
a day trying to interpret my boss's wishes about spreadsheets. its always impossible!

oh dear, Amiku, I soooo hope that is a figure of speech! *checks self intensively*

haha, we're having a baby together, remember?
hm.... fat belly.... but for longer than 9 months... it can't be...
LOL Amiku, now I remember! Your good looks and my devilish brain, right?
stuck at 166 -- calling it a night :) -- see you tomorrow
night nan!
night nan
yes ;)
has this really really got 304 words in??!!
so what's the baby's name? (This has vague memories of Bernard Shaw and Lady Astor)
we debated naming it after you, jilli :D
but it is a boy....
Night nan!
Ye Gods and little fishes!!!
so it will probably be Billyjus
Big fishes in this jilli
My second name is Leslie and when I went to the States they'd never heard my first name so I got assigned to the boys' gym class...
hate to leave this baby talk, but i've got to go!!! bbl, have fun all!
bye MVA, have a good one today :)
Why is this baby a boy?
Bye MVA

would you give permission for Billyjus, jilli?
oops -- my na4/5
is this a word (it's not in babble's dictionary)
orchestrina
it is
Yes, but -- do you know the Bernard Shaw/Lady Astor story?
oh, do you mean my cw or your orch...
I don't think so, jilli?
then: or11/104 !
fr 7 if not said earlier
It seems the lovely Lady Astor propositioned the brilliant GBS, suggesting their combination would produce a baby with her looks and his brains. He declisned, suggesting it might get his looks and her brains.
ah, LOL!
LOL
I guess he was right. Glad it turned out ok with Amiku and me.
fr7=fr5/25+ ** phone home

and plural
jilli, it is from the chat a few days ago. Amiku and I merged so well it bore fruit ;)
um is there fish here?
yes infernal - singular and plural - big fish come in cans
ARB: starts with a male and ends in form of to be.
is that the stinky one that couold be said that the brits like to put on sandwiches?
I love that fish
guess I missed it, but I'm sure you will raise him well -- um, why is he a him and not a her?
I'm allergic to that fish
Salmon isn't here LOL
that was a decision of the babble gods, I am afraid - we were not asked, jilli :)
I just heard haar too!
um is that the sar one?
the fish I found is known as the Chicken of the Sea
ty Sprite -- I got confused on the points and was looking for a second 2 point letter. Simple
phantom: nutria
I'm also allergic to the fish in the grid

hey ren
hi ren8
gm ren8
Hi ren
Good morning all - eek 304
Right this will have to wait till later, bye all and have a good day
gm ursh
hey ursh
ursh it took me 10 hours to do the last one
Oh well - will have a go - in and out - here and there
i had nothing else to do
wher s everyone?
babbling, probably :)
sorry, I'm not looking at the ch** log much looking for words.
um is that IST actually used in the end off any words?
Just popping in before the toddler gets up....
Hey monkey how goes the little snot beast :)
at least once, lady
good i thought it was there to drive me nuts
that too, of course :D
Well, he still had a fever in the middle of the night, but not high enough to warrant waking him up to stick a thermometer... umm, to temp him. I hope he's better today; I get a bad feeling about things that hang on and on, and he already had a day where he seemed fine and then it came back. Might have to go to the doctor tomorrow. I hope not.
how is FUNIST not a word???
Yeah, funist has been getting to me.
Oh poor little man, no offence to me calling him a snot beast its a term i use for sickies
I took no offense--it's a perfect description of him yesterday.
ewwww
how long has it been going on, Monkey?
oh THAR is such a word
Well, yeah, but it's not so bad if I just keep on him with the kleenex. How long? Not so long--he started with th efever (low grade) Thursday evening and that's been coming and going. But I have school Thursday so even though a week isn't such a long time for a flu I'll get him in tomorrow anyway to have some idea of how he'd be for daycare if he's feeling up to it.
poor little man
good call monkey there is nothing worse than sticking a sickie in day care, then the other beasties get it, i used to do childcare
I should mention he loves daycare and was upset not to go yesterday, but as long as he's acting sick I won't take him. If he gets all his energy back but still has a runny nose then he can go, but I'll want the doctoir to have told me that's OK in case they try to send him home just for that.
but if he is a little better and it is no longer contagious, daycare might be a nice distraction for him
oh, cuddles for the little guy -- when I was sick I used to want my mum to carry me.
true sprit i have issues with sickies and day care having been a working and having money time poor parents dumping sickies on me. at least Monkey with the DOctors Cert you are doing the right thing
So now I MUST go to bed. Night all -- *poof*
nite again Jilli
*hug* jilli, sleep well!
MY partner rocks
herinfernallady
all of you rock :-)
yes RX&
i'm in kuwait, the local time is now 1032, i am at work, last time i was on here babbling was last night at around 2300 hours
I love your *poof*s, jilli :D
i think you have a babbling addiction! :P
Carrying: Yup, cannot put him down. If I start trying to do dishes or something, he appeears, bright orange cast on his leg looking truly miserable, and holds his little arms out to me and says, "Up, Mama!" Who on earth could resist that? Daycare: things are extremely well-regulated here and they all have colds at the moment, so they won't blink an eye if he just has a runny nose, but this coming-and-going thing might mean more than a flu (ear infections aren't contagious, though) so I'll have him to the doctor if he's not a lot better today and tomorrow. He sure is sleeping in.
i like anyone that can be patient when i troll the supermarket for health snacky foods. I have found low fat cookies, snakata rice biscuits and choc desert all eatable and healthy. Monkey i couldnt resist that look either
I so remember those carrying days. My son often had those flus that upset stomachs and bowels... you don't want to know how many hours I spent with him, sitting in the bathroom, holding him and cleaning both of us all the time.
make that sakata rice biscuits
Thank goodness, although I do think he has some stomach upset, nothing is coming out either end unexpectedly...
thank God for small favours, lol
Today is supposed to be the playgroup day where I and the other mothers stay and play with them. He's gonna be pretty upset to miss it.
yeah, being ill sucks big time. But you are there for him and that's even more important, Monkey.
Yeah, poor little guy, he does need me right now and I'm glad I can be here. I really hope for BOTH our sakes he's better right away though--I can't afford to miss any more school! I have once-a-week full days, like 8 to 10 hour days, and this quarter I missed one due to being ill, one due to him being ill, and one when he broke the leg, so if I miss anymore we are talking serious make-up-work later! At least we're on trak with the group report now so I won't be letting the rest of my workgroup down...
Sorry for all the typos.
eh im the typo queen
((((Monkey))))) sometimes there should be 2 of you, just to get both priorities done
you seem to have very full plate
hiya all
hands Monkey and the little man one of my healthy choc chip cookies
I wish there were. Most people can at least pop the kid off toa favorite grandparent now and then (good for everyone sometimes) but they're all on the other side of the Atlantic. Plus we moved from one city to another 1 1/2 years ago so all my really good friends are still back in Amsterdam.

h cool, thanks for the cookie! I guess it's not too early...
are you in Holland, Monkey?
must go, Good luck Monkey, be assured Babblers do care and will be thinking of you
All the Dutch words in the puzzle.... not fair...
Iain, bye and thanks!
bye Lain
Yes, in Holland.
drags out the big plate of health cookies for everyone to share
:) fellow country mum
Where are you? I'm in Haarlem.
Koog aan de Zaan here, Haarlem is not that far :)
There was someone on here the other day in Heemstede...
I was born in Haarlem
A friend of mine, the one that made me a babble addict, lives there too
Neat! I really like it here. Amsterdamw as fun when I was 25 but now that I'm 38 and have a 2 1/2 year old I like it MUCH better here.
wow this is cool, too people here from the same area that didnt know each other to start with
oh yes! My husband is born and raised in A'dam and we lived there for a while, but when the first kid became a fact, we moved here. Much better.
What fun! So are you natively Dutch? We are naturalized except for our little one who was born after that and is a real native.
natively Dutch - as dutch as the come
darn, seems ch4 is no longer working for me...
damn im out of my choc smoothie
strange hiccup that was
fireworks, btw
yah sprite
As they come, eh? Then can you tell me what's supposed to be so new about some of the things in these Maggi ads (een beetje vleesvariatie...)? I would have thought ham rolled around ground beef logs was REALLY Dutch. Is it just that it's usually bacon? By the way that kid, the one who says "cookingvith zhe shtarsh", passed me on a bike the other day, so I guess he lives in Haarlem Cute kid.
sounds totally dutch to me, yes. Don't watch much television though.
how come i still have well over 200 words?
congrats. sprite
is there any UN words
have them or need them, lady?
oh hi hodog, I need well over 200 words and my health choc shake is all gone :(
hiya lady :)
un as in 'not' : a 6-7 combo and a 6 single one.
OK, should I let sleeping toddlers lie or go check on him? I know he's alive because he coughs now and then. He's been asleep now for 14 hours, though--a bit long even for when he's sick.
waves, i want anyother choc shake, can anyone tell me what 10 per cent of $5.50 is please?
thanks
o.55 herin
Monkey let him slep
mmm so i get about 55cents off?
I would let him sleep, as long as he is moving there is nothing wrong with sleeping.
Yeah, I should. I just get concerned, you know?
oh, I know, believe me. I think worrying about one's kids is inevitable.
is he running a fever monkey?
My partner reboots sometimes he goes dead for about 16plus hours then hes fine
thanks ursh
He's had a fever off and on, never above 38.4, which is, ummm, 101 F.
hi and goodnight all, be back tomorrow
bye flosey, sleep well
how can you un? something (when you cut a bush you t? it
sleeping that long is a sign of a high temp. he should have at least woke up to go to the bathroom,I would check it out.(I'm a over protective grandma at times) but i would be checking. LOL :)
good night flosey
nite flossy
Well, he's still in diapers, and I checked him all night. The fever hasn't been very high and he has been changing position all night. But I will go pretty soon because he should have fluids soon.
even if you give him a bottle of kids cow juice formular he should be right
and a bath also elps
no i dont have kids either its just things i have picked up over time
Oh, he drinks regular milk, and hasn't used a bottle since he was 6 weeks old (he had to be taken to the hospital shortly after he was born, so bottles were temperarily required). But what he really wants when he gets up is juice; I mix it very weak. We'll see what he wants--if he'll eat some orange pancakes I'll know he's OK. They're orange because I sneak baby food in--carrot in these, but this time also broccolli and turkey blend. He doesn't have fluid available all night because he unscrews the caps on his no-spill cups, rather defeating the purpose, but I do take stuff in throughout the night if he's unwell. Hmmm, he's still coughing... I think I'll just call and make a dr. appointment for today and tehn go check him.
I didn't know how old he is,don't give him milk if his tummy is icky .water and juice till the temp. is down,milk will curdle and come back up.
he he he. i like the sneaky food idea
oh der im a toss, milk bad when you are a snot beast just makes you more snotty, fish for me please
He's 2 1/2. I've been laying off teh milk anyway because of a chesty cough, but I do want him to have calcium for teh broken leg, thus the broccolli.
at least you are not trying to sneak brussels round things on hem
OK, don't know how long you folks'll be on here,but I'm off to call the doctor and check that boy. I'll be back on at his naptime unless he wants to be independent and just watch videos or something--we allow lots of TV when he's sick.
I really LIKE Brussels sporouts, myself!
bye monkey ,hope he feels better when he wakes up :)
OK, I now have a dr. appointment for him at 15:40, giving me the bulk of the day and his naptime to assess his condition. I can hear him coughing. I'm really off to get him now. Have fun, folks!
goodluck monkey
so happy the house is organised
now i need another 150 odd words and id e happier
Temporarily back. Little Walter is up and wants to watch his kitty-cat video. He's not hungry and he doesn't want to drink, but he's a good boy so when I tell him he has to have juice he drinks it for me. It's lemon-flavored pediatric rehydration fluid right now; I decided he needed that. This still seems like a flu, but of course they can go to pneumonia at this age at the drop of a hat so I feel good about having the dr. appointment. Well, back to him (he's sitting right here, though) an dthen maybe I can see about eating something myself.
site became totally inaccessible for me for quite a while, and the sudoku site went crazy too. Have to be off now, have a nice day!
Monkey, good luck with the little one, and try and take care of yourself as well *hug*
cye sprite
er...ummm...morning all....
Good morning Jade
How goes it today? Big grid...
*trying* to get some sleep....
As you say - big grid, I've just arrived.
ok, Babble has succeeeeeeded.....I am officially sleepy.
I shall return later. Luck to all...go get 'em.
Bye Jade.
bye haz...*poof*
hi babblers!
Good evening Fran!
hi haz!
I wasn't sure whether to be glad or sad when I saw the word total for today. We're getting our money's worth, anyway.
seems to be moving rather quickly, although i've barely started with 58 words so far.
My initial reaction was to doubt that you could get many words, but it's going better than expected.
helo again
i feel asleep
hi infernal!
hello fran
and haz
and jade
i think jade has left
opps i went to sleep for 40min
you must have needed the rest infernal
hello all again... keep entering 'wrist'... must be hurting
hi mrp!
Hi fran!! :)
its only 7pm here
hello mr pres
not asking for clues yet...but just when i think i know all the K wo**s, i realize i don't. :-)
hi infern!
this grid is tougher than I thought!
it is...and i just finished telling haz it was going quickly!
I am sure that fr7/56 was a cat food brand
thanks! actually the brand is fr***ie's
ah! sounded familiar
and if you havce pets dont get their flea powder as it can kill or make pets sick
oh that isn't good... I wash my pets every week instead of infesting them with chemicals
probably better for the kids too mrp.
www.tias.com/cards/ is a great site for vintage cards

how about a clue for the ca 7 36
not me?
if the sleeping tablets don't get ya!! did you hear the news on stilnox today?? I laughed myself silly!!
no what
what news was that mr pressie
people were not telling their doctors of the side effects and when they finally opened up a drug consumer hotline, people fessed up to the side effects of stilnox...
oh huh huh people are dumb
which were?
people were too embarassed to tell their GP that they were up all night and unaware of it... cooking, having raunchy times with their spouses, cleaning... etc etc
I say the spouses just wanted it to stay like it was!! and didn't tell the poor girls what was happening!
So stilnox did'nt make them sleep??
my husband told me what I did and I just nearly died of embarassement
hi kris morning
lol
im still looking to help you sith the ca
no ursh, stilnox made them into stepford wives!
Oh do tell mr p - what "did" you do?
hey lynn
well!! I cleaned the bathrooms, vacuumed the house, cooked two gourmet meals and seduced my husband!! all in 4 hours!!

Cool mrp - bet he is sorry if you stopped taking it

oh a 1950s valumn mum
math
woops
and I swear to god I had gone to sleep!
7:45 ?????????????????????????
ursh, he is slapping himself up the side of the head as we speak!
um csi miami - tidal wave or ncis??/
hmmmmm stilnox hey
ca 7 36 please and thankyou
csi live and tape ncis
OK, I'm back, little Walter is back down for his nap (I know, aleady, but he's tired and ill and it's half an hour later than he usually naps). I've written a case history for the doctor--my money's now on bad flu plus ear infection, but we'll see what the professional says.
i dont have a tape
G'd morning Babblers!
plus ncis has abbey
ursh, the answer to viagra and happy pills with a kick back of amnesia rolled into one
was very upset that it happened though... I had no idea!! and it happened a few times
um was that ca 7 that somone needed?
i think i would like to remember what i did!!
I gave 11 4 letter words. Go me!
not a good feeling when you have no control... I remembered nothing! I wish I did!
MP, is stilnox a sleeping aid like Luminor(sp) here? there have been cases of people waking up after they have been stopped for speeding, in the middle of the night, going on eating binges, etc.....
i have decided ncis as i love abbey
especially the raunchy bits!! bye all for now!!
pida, sounds like the same thing... but they have no memory of doing it
bye
bye all!

Guten Morgen, babbler buddies. 304 words!!! will take me all day. Diving in NOW
G'd morning inge
hello inge
clues for some of the 8's would be nice :) have the ca8
***sound of silence***
perie when my KITTIE (another name forit ) you give it breath mi? plural
Hi herin, got that one from your earlier clue, thanks
is there more than one ca8
oh woops deer
no
Nope. 1 ca 8
Darn it, I keep seeing hematite... but it's not really there!
there is a ch
under the ch 8 tree
I have a ch7/40 but not ch8
thanks herin, got it
ok cool i was about to saw my boobs live on my ch plus a type of cashew is a n?
:-)
There's an ma 8, plural of a large knife used to chop your way through the jungle
thanks Lori, easy to find when the clue is good :)
There's also an 8, a plural of a very 60's and 70's pass time, making owls and such with cord
how about the third ch 6/24, the co 6/36, an the cr 6/24. That's the last of the the c's
Does anything use the -ism?
thanks Lori
Plant hangers were popular too..... :)
one word uses the ism
Thanks. Ism is too cool to go useless, after all.
ur 7/36
what do all the cr 6/24 or co6/36 mean?
Well, I figured out the ur, but man, that's a WORD?
Looked it up. Still never heard it before.
wordwizard th cr means the fist two letters of the word the fist number indicates how many letters are in the word and the last number indicates how many points the word is worth.
Typo-ed the ma 7's, ma = to walk in protest, plural + 1st vowel, and 2nd vowel for the other 8
found 120, bbl
Some typos are handy! I knew my typing inability would come in handy someday....
Found another -ism!
Later peri
later perie i was busy terrifing my b/fs house mate
Darn it, there'd be another fish if there was another s up there!
and then my net crashed
TY monkey - found it too with your prompt
Monkey have you seen Lilo and Stich?
No... I try to avoid most modern Disney.
oh i was about to use a line for the fish in here
That's not a bad pun... I have found one fish, a usual eating fish and its plural. But there's be another one that hangs out on coral and cleans other fish if there was another s in the area.
I mean, obviously, there'd be.
God damn som of an itch ate my bread
if i run away its because the nets being dodgy
Are these still fish puns I'm not getting? Distracted by worrying about Walter, you understand.
in babble, when there is an easy word that we miss, we hit ourselves with a fish. by association, those words have become known as fishes.
Ah! Ok. But there really is a fish in this one.
there often is...
Hi Hursh. how did you go yesterday?
rte 7
yeah, lots of rituals and babble superstitions
little joke...
everything went well, thank you lynxxx, had two good interviews.
Not surprising. On alt.usage.english there's a lot about sheep, and badgers' dams...
Gotta go take the dog out before the kid wakes up. BAck in a few. Witha ny luck.
bye monkeygames
Later Monkey
in case it comes up in a later grid - eskimo doesn't count. proper i guess.
OK, she took care of business in short order. Her bed's in the sun so she was eager to get back to it.
siam also doesn't work.
well that is for sure proper.
i dunno why i was hoping eskimo wasn't ... just cause it would be cool to put in, i guess.
Yup. I was too lazy to read all the rules first--trying to unwind.
unwind? through babble? clearly you're new.
and im back
Let me rephrase. Got a really sick toddler with a broken leg here, getting ready for a move, etc. Wanted to distract myself while the little guy sleeps.
oh, sorry to here that. things always go wrong for me around moves, too. moving from w'town to here, my grandfather died, my car caught fire...
unrelated incidents.
monkey how is snot beast and the snoring dog
oh, some cool M words
Lat time we moved my grandmother died--while the phone company had messed us up and I couldn't talk to her.
what is it about moves???
Snot beast not well at all, I'm really glad I made taht appointment for this afternoon, but he is still asleep (nap time). I managed to get quite a bit of the rehydration fluid down him, though. Poor little guy. Dog's good, her usual passed-out self. She's a Great Dane, they sleep a lot.
yep they do
isnt tisket a word? I remember the nursery rhyme real well
good morning everyon
same as tisk
word
G'd morning Eva
I tried it too. Guess it's too nonsensical. I suppose that means if it ever turned up I couldn't use jabberwocky either. Sigh.
i think they just made up tisket and tasket to have a rhyme for basket
penalty box, inge! lol
gee, I said a ****, off to penalty box. Is it stocked??
oh poor kid though monkey has he had a bath and all that?
No bath yet--we just have a shower but it has a lip so I can fill it a bit, but he just wnated to be held and held, and it is a bit of a hassle right now to gat the water-guard onto the leg, so I thought we'd just wait until after the doctor for all that.
jeez inge, did you never leave?
Sorry for the typos. The cast comes off a week from tomorrow, by the way, so at least regarding the broken leg the end is in sight.
i feel for the little guy, i really do, im trying to stay healthy
I reccommend it.
nutty, you ate all the stuff, didn't you?
i'm trying to contract a fatal illness...
beg you pardon, hurshy?
what did i eat? monkey...poor kiddo! seems to be lots of little guys with broken legs just now.
i don't recommend them hurshy, they suck.
just... a silly ironic comment on herinfernallady's comment... don't mind me
now i want banana jello
Walter has a buddy with a broken leg too. Fell off a bus stop bench. His cast went to the hip; luckily Walter has been allowed to keep his knee all this time!
back into the grid, have to go halfway before I allow myself the list
this time MOnkey?
arsemonkeys are eating my bread NOT IMPRESSED
I've only used the list once so far. I already knew I didn't know a word starting hw. Lady, I meant all the time he's had this broken leg. This is his first break. Hopefully his last, but he's one active little daredevil so maybe that's too much to ask.
oh thats good then monkey, kids useually bounce
their tops are made out of rubber, their bottoms are made out of springs
And they're solid like potatoes.
MORNING BABBLERS
useually with hollow legs
hi rmb
clearly i have not met any normal children
im just hiding my bread from the b/fs housemate
hello?
hello
oh everyone ent away
prob just finding words
I didn't ent nowhere. Help me think up a good excuse for not getting any housework done while Walter's napping.
working actually, so sorry.
um the house really is clean
Are you BLIND?
yer thats my usual excuse, i have the art of ten menut cleaning down pat, im the cleaning tornado
ah poo! i got a big zit under my nose...dangit!
lol
halfway! Time for list!
How do I turn my screen into a mirror?
glue a mirror to it
Ooh, I see. Laptops don't like that. Oh well.
see i have this system, go to the loo then clean it, clean up as you go and after meals, clean bath/shower why that is soaking attach the lounge, throw random stuff in boxes, have shower whilst cleaning it then get dressed and have a coffee and attack the grid
oh also before shower i lob all the dirty clothes in the machine have a shower then i get out and turn the machine on
i have a method too:
ignore everything that is not a health hazard until it annoys hubster more than it annoys me.
also i have had a habit of defrosting food in the microwave (five min), dishes in sink, shower (under 5min) washing clothes, eat clean up relax
i like your motion evan, i have a habit of utalising every room i enter as i clean up
yes im a freak, my bedroom looks like a bombs hit, you cant see the floor ANYWERE
welp, i work, he doesn't, so he ought to anyway.
my method - have someone come in each Friday to clean !
Ah. On non-school-no-apprenticeship-job days I get up, take the dog out, prepare a toddler breakfast, have coffee if toddler still sleeping, get the toddler when he wakes up, have coffee if have not yet, feed him, take him and teh dog to the park, come back here, feed him a healthy snack by that time, load the crappy broken dishwasher (glass and ceramics only, everything else comes out evenly coated with soap), check my e-mail, get surfaces wiped, toddler off to nap time, breakfast for me, stuff like this grid or ideally homework, get toddler back up when he wakes up, do something constructive and fun with him, dog to park again (it's across the street), packing, homework, shopping if not already done, start work on dinner, husband gets home, dinner, storytime, bedtime for toddlers, THEN if I can muster the energy, more cleaning.
Oh, then there's his lunch in there somewhere, sometimes I get to shower, I do manage laundry sometimes, etc.
FMItch are you there? If we stand back to back, one bullet will do.
you are busy monkey, i used to work nights so it was hecktic
life's too short for so much cleaning.
i like to read the phone book for awhile first, personally. adams, bates, bennet, bowen...
LOL Haz!
It's shorter if the kitchen's as dangerous as mine was two days ago.... That's what I spent the bulk of my not-holding-sick-boy time doing yesterday.
thats why i just attack each room i go in, house is cleanish for wednesdat
hahaha Hursh !
Just got here Haz, right behind you
Okay, don't feel so alone any more.
Monkey you need a carrier thing for him
hello everyone....how do you make it fit three Haz !!!
I have no hair left
what'm i, chopped liver?
lost the tv bugger
Four Haz
I used one until he could walk and run on his own. Now he doesn't want it when he's sick--I have to sit on the couch or walk back and forth in the living room. Not allowed to DO anything.
ACK monkey, herin, that's MY hair to clean, you cleanin fools!
the mythbusters made a cannonball go through four pig carcasses easy as anything
Hi Karys and Frances
Okay - the Brits are doing what they always do in times of crisis. Form a queue.
i am lost
ROFL
An orderly queue Haz
LOL Haz
and i was enjoying my evening till my partners house mate came home
Don't make a fuss, dear.
hurshy, thats DEE sgusting!
figuring that all those extra vowels will confuse the crisis into going away?
Hi lyn
please Haz - stop it!
Well, at least we're laughing again, instead of sobbing uncontrollably and calling for the men in the white coats to take us away to the home for the bewildered.
Thought that was where I was Haz
it's nice to know I am not alone !
Ooh, where's the home for the bewildered? Sounds nice!
hey already lost and in a nut house, ok my b.fs house aint that bad but its getting there
*scratches head* is that where i am?
On the subject of housework - I find if I take my specs off the house always looks great! Hi everyone
hi JFB
sharpens pencil, dives right in
i know where i am but i much prefer the grid
Hi JFB
+For those of you who came lately, I have been here since 7:30, and have 156 words. Guten MOrgen all.
On the plus side I can still see Babble without glasses!!
how far are you moving Monkey? INge ive been at it for ages too
hi JFB and inge
huzzah, JFB!
Hi all, big one today!
morning... huh, 304 words and the biggest word is an 8?? nifty!
Luckily we're only moving about 3 km, or 1 1/2 miles.
Its not the easiest grid is it inge
i had to hid my yummy bread :(
thats ok Monkey
JFB - my arms aren't long enough for that
Guten Morgen, inge. I was here earlier and have got to 124 to go. But I may have to leave it until later to allow my nerves to steady themselves.
first 50 words are misleading, then it gets tough
i am at 159 if it makes you feel better Inge
aw haz, dinna gae, we'll steady ye
LOL...I have 167 to find and slowed a bit now
Hotts hurshy, there's a bit o the Scots aboot ye!
:)
But i really should go and get some lunch. I'll return, hopefully having braced myself again. Bye!
who wants to talk about the i?
See you later Haz
i have the beginning bit of music
bye Haz
ttfn haz
Bye Haz
in5.10 is all I have Hursh
hmmmm...
Must get something to eat - bbl
Why isn't intraset a word?
it used to be, but then nobody ever used it, it got huffy, took its toys and went home
how about E's, i have em4 and es6...
2 em 4's and a plural
If only I could use all these Dutch words.
em5 - off the em4 - otherwise only the same
bringing to your attention, giveawayoftheday is giving some useful software away today.
bother, how fishy
what software is it, nut?
TY Kateq
software to recover information from things you may have lost it from, like camera cards and stuff.
cool
it's normally 50, good deal
free is always a good deal
i should argue that
the ki-'s have me stumped. Only got one of 'em.
you mean because you don't always want the stuff? like dog food is useless if you have no dog?
it's still a good DEAL, though, i think. must look up technical def of deal.
ki6.33 is fate
yes, but you've done a nice job of it for me now, so my conscience is clear.
there are 2 ki4.8 which switch the last 2 letters around
ki6/33 = fate, destiny
ooooh, ki6/30 is a SCIENCE wo4!!! and i got it anyway!!!
Just got another ki word I'd been ignoring because it IS a Dutch word. Clearly also in use in English,go figure. And thanks, I think the switchy-ones are the ones I have now unless there are two sets.
and cut off end, and cut it off again, and i'm done with K's!
Destiny one, got it now, thanks. Searching for science word now!
where is atalante to pat one's head and be proud when one finds science wo4s???
almost tsunami
hursh in8/50 in + the curved structure over a door for example
poo! power flash, work lost, off to stomp and b*tch for a bit.
thanks frances!
You're welcome. You should get three others from that
i should? you mean if i didn't already have the a's?
Correct
ah.
i want FRUIT.
are there any WR's?
No wr's.
No hursh
otay

Yawning my head off, must be off to bed now. 10 left for the morning with list I think. Bye all - have fun!

that's still a loooong way to go
not but what i don't appreciate the cheering :)
well i have alot longer so to me that's almost done :)
yes but when you GET there, it WON'T feel like almost done anymore
if you wanted to get ANYwhere, you'd have to run three times faster than you DID
true, but look at what you have accomplished
First request of the day. ki5/18 please
is a pl
Thanks Hurshy
Whats the theme for today?
dunno
jeepers, i only have 2 8's ... in and ma
how many 8's are there
8
8! i only have two as well, the same two you have apparently
hehe
timetaco, mathmart... nothing works!
there is a second ma8 that i know of.
anyone have the at7?
a + th6
a + avert an evil plan
thanks lori and hurshy!
4 of the 8's are ma's
rward ones
Straight forward ones, I meant
hard ones?
ohhhh
really, ok
ma 8's, first 2 are plurals of a big knife for the jungle, 2nd is a crafting popular in the 70's, making plant hangers and such
i am confused
there are TWO pls for the knife?
The second 2 are plural of what walking protesters are called, with the last letter being 1st vowel, and second vowel, respectively
good morning e1
No hurshy, each of those 2 8's are plurals. 1 knife, 1 of the other (craft)
ahh. hmm, i have papier ma5... related?
thanks Lori
ah, no. got it.
thanks lori!
swell.!
I hurried too much. apologies
and for an amusing pause, my daughter is yelling at her music table because it keeps singing the numbers, not sure what she wants it to do, but as she yells she bangs on it, making it sing the song again. silly child
first ma 8 is a 7/8 combo, big knife in the jungle
np, i got 'em, so clearly twas fine
2nd ma 7/8 combo is the popular craft in the 70's
The other 2, are ma = what people do, when walking in protest, last letter is 2nd vowel change to 3rd vowel for the last ma 8
I incorrectly said 1st and 2nd vowel in my previous ramblings.... Sorry!
***and now, she will walk embarrassed to the back of the room***
*flops* back from lovely long walk
ata ata ata!!!!!!! i got a SCIENCE wo4 all by myself!!!
woooooooooooooot! was it 4 letters? *grins*

ummm... it is some kind of organic thingy...

greetings fellow nutty people 8-)
Second request! fu7/48 and fu8/65 pls
oooh got those!
Give please
usually you see it with bi-, i think it means divide and with bi- it is divide in two (ata, yes?)
I know it as an emzyme, wonder if we're thinking the same ki6
Greetings ladies. Thanks for the help! Can always depend on you.
OK, I'm back. For those of you following little Walter's saga, the doctor says it is just a "very heavy flu" and as long as I keep pushing fluids and making sure he gets a minimum of calories into him he'll be fine. I do hate seeing him so miserable, though.
monkey, i concur. this is a very heavy flu. now going on 8 days for me, sorry to say!
Be thankful for smart doctor. No antibiotics.
I had one a few weeks ago in which the strictly-in-bed time was ten days. Hang in there!
at least my in-bed time was about 3 days. i still feel droopy though but i'm vertical
ates
sorry
aw5/20?
aw = to win an aw***, maybe a trophy or money
prize knut
one huge duh for the knut, thanks lori and hoot!
Hootowl--tahnks. Doctors over here are much smarter about antibiotics, and I would have put my foot down anyway. They're useless with a virus.
Sorry for the tpyos.
Try to convince the people here! Tenn, and especially Memphis, are soooo far behind that a nurse I was rooming with when I got here was usung anti-bacterial everything! She, at least, should have known better!
there's not much you could call good science going on in the US, sorry to say. political comments withheld!
whats wrong with using anti-bacterials? I understand anti-biotics, but ...
Sheesh. Yeah, there's a woman on my online parenting group who just posted that now that they know that her toddler's diarrhea and mild fevers and runny nose have been caused by teething and not a cold maybe they'll stop the precautionary antibiotics she's been on for weeks! Aaaaargh! (There's the source of the diarrhea anyway!)
At least in NY they were putting the info out - here, it's never mentioned. Nuts, NY is never mentioned unless something really bad happens.
There's tremendous wisdom to the old adage "have your peck of dirt"
Nothing wrong with antibacterial soaps and things in moderation, but using them ALL the time on EVERYTHING reduces exposure and thus immunity while conditioning the germs to withstand them.
Where IS that poor misbegotten woman?
Immune systems cannot work, if they're not allowed to.
oh right, I see. yes, of course, I thought you meant all use of anti-bacterials was frowned on!
I'd rather give my counters a wash with a bleach solution that an anti anything which isn't really strong enough to do anything except grow stronger germs
anti-bacs are gooood things over here at the moment. better nurses wash their hands in those than not wash their hands at all
In NY it frowned apon. Hospitals are having big problems with reisitant bugs
That's where these resistant strains are coming from.
was that english???
urf so are we
english enough!
chat
chemist
bad science leads to bad policy!
NUTS!!!
Hello all - please clue the at7

I have 210 words and no -isms!
I am hunting for a co 6 --I have the beef person
annual... hmmm...
I'm the one who found the ism. Let's just say it's never a lie...
The word for a well flowing without help but w/e in front ?
but you said ANOTHER ism... i have that one...
The other ism is a really bizarre word I had never heard before. Should I say what it starts with?
I didn't ty
ism also goes with ur word
yes monkey, please
ur 7 is an ism
or French summers with James Bond's creator
The ur one is the weird word. The one I found is never a lie.
curaism
The other one, I mean.
thanks inge, lori, monkey, and hoot!
hurshy, I am now going to scrub the pan from Crazy cake. you didnt warn me of that
got it - fancy word for gay person
didn't you scrape up the nice moist bottom as you went along?
it's one of the yummiest bits!
great clue--tx kate!
if you let it soak for a while it should be np to get it off though
ate it too fast, no time to scrape
yw!
i just scrape up the bottom with my fingers... it comes off real easy when you've just taken the piece out, and it is deeee lish
belated thanks for summer clue. handy dictionary!
however, at this point, soak.
gorsh, 40 to go and feeling pretty stuck
OK, I have to go try to do something esponsible now. I'll be in and out, though.
bub bye monkey!

After a ridiculous amount of time backtracking a missing word, I now have me 304 words. Done!

No, not a troll. Almost worse because she 'plays' the game and talks nonsense for hours.
second tr 6/18 please
I've been on nearly all day, and the bit I miss obviously had all the interest!
Congrats Lori!!
do i get as annoying as that? cause sometimes i do talk rather a lot...
Oh, it wasn't interesting, Atalante - that's the problem. Trivial rubbish and twaddle.
LOL hurshy!!!
hurshy...you are fine !!
urf
how is this grid?
hurshy - your redeeming feature (you have more than one) is that you can spell.
afternoon babblers -- workin from home today!
Oh, I just clued in. Does it have to do with a house mate, death knells, that sort of thing....
This is a reasonably okay grid, TO.
Hi evan
A few weird ones, but mostly genteel.
this grid is ok, a little hardish maybe
skit
I havn't a clue Lori....I was quite lost !!!
The one. Lori. Peace had reigned for quite a while because their internet was down. It's back on....
crap, sorry
glad the k wasn't an h....
got to go - see you all happy babbling

The upside Haz, is during those times I tend to really, really, really, really focus on the grid...
Fireworks!!! and now for my nap time!
That's true, Lori, but I do resent the chat log being hijacked like that.
Thoy I live in c.. Rhondda!!
Congrats knut!!!!!

Congrats knutmeg
i knew there was a reason for those spelling bees in elementary school!

I hear ya' Haz
would anyone dare ? !!!
haz ALMOST did... :) if subtlety were understood...
congrata, knutmeg
Hobbit has a denta rask right now. so rask should be allowed!
I would!
Atalante - we've been too polite up until now. Do you remember when she was Shadow Wolf? She went away for a while but reinvented herself. Some day I will say something....
ok, last 3 words, can anyone help with the et7/28, the ki 6/33 and the me 7/40?
So what are you saying Hurshy? LOL j/k
if she had said "are you talking about me?" i was ready to go ahead and say "YES, you are insufferably dull"
yeah ... am just wondering whether its time for action LOL
she's so irritating
the BF is having some minor oral surgery today, so im at his place to play chauffer... heres hoping all goes well!
Haz I am wondering who that is
ki6/33...fate, destiny
et + Romans, Galatian, Eph*****s, Colossians
Good luck to the BF evan
you forgot corinthians and philippians...
Good luck evan. All the best to him
philippians 1 and 2
I didn't figure we needed the entire Testament.....
thanks lori and karys
thanks...hes not the best patient, so im not really looking forward to it...hehe
me7/40....me + pl letter + ar4/6
no, just one philippians. 2 corinthianses.
sorry can someone tell me how many words again?
3
well no but i mean i just know the order they go in
304
304
But be kind to him, evanadine in his hour of trouble and tooth torment.
304 words
near enough :P
304 words
ty
I used to know them by heart, but, use it or lose it I guess
we gotta hold on to what we got, it doesn't make a difference if we make it or not...
yeah that's like me with world capitals. i had them half memorized and then i quit...
me 7/40 --- add what is used ti stiffen the collar of a shirt, without the t
yes, hes gotta have 2 removed...but we arent sure if theyre taking out both today...
can anyone advise if there is controversy over the amount of words/points?
But they keep changing the names of countries - you're on the road to madness if you try to do that.
there are 304 words and 4442 points.
Ihave 304 words, with a pt total of 4442
i dunno if there is a controversy, but i am done and that is the correct total.
a qeustion to you small animal experts: our hamsters cage is covered with a sticky mess, yellow droplets on the cloth underneath. Is he trying to tell me something???
doesn't make a bunch of sense exert if it does not make a difference
any clues for ac7?
LOL inge
ty
ac plus a dried grape, minus a vowel
how quickly did this develop?
For ac7 that is.
ac + dried grapes are **i***s
thanks for the ac clues, got it
oh brabble, we don't listen to bon jovi for the rationality...
hursh, you asking me that? Happened in about 2 days
what kind of cage? is it the inside or outside that is covered?
Well, I'm officially hungry. Off I go, to eat something totally unhealthy, and preferably loaded with cholesterol.
like, my dad made cages of chicken wire for my hamsters, so it was mostly airy and open
Thanks all for your help, and have a great day!
a wire cage feels sticky to the touch. Have not checked inside yet. Sort of like someone covred it with sugar water or soemthing
Bye Lori
Bye Lori - see you again.
go for it lorip
maybe it isn't the hamster at all, is it near anything that could leave a sappy residue?
no kids in the house who might have done something
plants?
will check the plants around it. OUr house is stuffed with plants right now.
will report back later, since I still need 30 words, which is more important
i'd bet on a plant, if the ENTIRE cage is covered on the outside, i don't see how a hamster could do that.
if the hamster did do it, i'd say you are soon to have a dead hamster, cause that can't be good.
unless the hamster has been eating ice cream messily
lol
even then, it would probly kill the hamster...
not if he dropped 99% of the ice cream on the cage LOL
LOL Ata
hahahaha
clue for at7?
a + to foil a plan
I have a mental picture of a tiny hamster holding an ice cream cone bigger than he is.
at7 - if you have the th6/33 which wrecks plans, put a in front
Back shortly....
well folkses, spring break is over at last, and that means... dining hall for lunch! ttfn!
thanks for the at. have to go for a while. Hope to be back later.
LOL doxy ..I wonder if he had a choc flake in it

afternoon everybody! big grid ....
Hi, Charm... and delightfully challenging, too!
'delightfully challenging'. I think that means I should be running, screaming, into the hills.
And leave me on my own to wallow through this.... pleeeeaaassse don't go... LOL
since you insist. I've already found 2 of the m8's. so that's heartening. but I may need some soda and sugar to get me thru it!
hi everybody.. this grid is TUFF..
Hey, Aloy!
And if Aloy says it's tuff, sigh....
Hi, Alo... don't discourage Charm.. she just jumped in!
I have ma8/55, what is the other?
There are four ma8/55 words Esprit
I have ma7 meaning that stuff you knit and one meaning a long knife. ma8 is their pl.
well, I only have one
that's the 7 and 8 I have
Towering in gallant fame, Scotland, my mountain ****
The other ma8s are formed from the name of this month with monkeyed endings... royal heritage for example
'tisket' is not in the dictionary. Then what was she singing about all those years ago????
LOL, Charm
using my 1/4 rule... if i can get 3/4 of the words relatively quickly, it is an easy grid. I just got to 76 left, so its off to the list.. and it was NOT "relatively easy"... but, as always, the hunt is fun
thanks, Scarlet - got those.
ac7?
i totally agree, charm.. a tisket, a tasket.. tisket should be there
ok found another ma8/55
Yea Charm! Alo, I also have 76 left and it has taken me two and a half hours to get the 228. NO, not easy.
a green and yellow basket

Hi Lady
Inge, is the first 5 letters the central street in a city?
yw :-)
ma 8: rhythmic music + che*** (my favorite food)
no, they are the beginning of that knife for cutting sugar cane
In order to solve today's grid, I think that one must be a botanist, biologist, multi-lingualist AND have an extremely extensive vocabulary or some very helpful friends and a good list. Thank you friends and Lickety :)
Ok, thanks. Off to see what I can find
don't forget a moasochist ; D
we are indeed a multi multi group!! :-)
I think our resident frog just moved into the living room. Sounds like he is close by, too close
inge, you have a pet frog?
Inge, I dont understand your clue
Hi everyone.
I need two more 8s
Hi Scrabbler!
4 more 8's here to find
hi scrabs!
May I vent?
The greenhouse is too warm for him. Yes, we have a pet frog and pet toad. Well they just moved into the greenhouse two years ago
Did you guys see the 2 pound cane toad they found in Australia?
off to find the rymthmic music 8
Jean, which clue?
ca8/50, ch8/55, in8/50. ma 8/55, ma8/55. ma8/55 are the ones I have
Funny, Inge! Do they have na***?
ma 8 - the craft of twisting and knotting string/yarn to make useful objects, such as plant holders
You are lucky! I have a pond in the summer, but no frogs or toads
ma 7-8-8: beginning with the parade there is a string which includes italian male and female nobility
Hi Scrabbler - a problem?
HI, all. Scrabbler, vent away.
omh yes, lady!

No, we hardly ever see them. The frog likes to live inside the bromeliad cup
fu8/65 Jean
You and I have fish in the house, too, Inge
hey, has anyone got any clue for the ki words bigger than 4 letters?
must go and get the paintbrush out -- working on the trim this week. Back at the flip :)
that's the last one I need Une
got a clue?
A bad day at work for one of our little tykes--a 3 yr old that needs our prayers because his father decided to use him as a punching bag. Broken ribs, ruptured spleen..... I am so upset that a parent would do that to their own child.
fu 8: what dogs shed + feline + vowel
ki6/33 "fate"
Oh...
OMG!!! Thats horrible!
Scrabbler, I will keep him in my prayers
wee man, ki**** good luck, I think
got it thanks Inge
ohmygod scrabbler!
Three... there is a special place in Hell for men of that ilk...
Bye Cybernan
ki 4-5-6: like the gambling game but use 2 different vowels, then keep extending
I hope they put him under the jail
Cyber, you lost me on that one
hey everyone how is the grid today
that is the most sickening thing scrabbler
The mother noticed that the boy was grunting and had purple welts--she thought he was having an allergic reaction but actually the kid had bruises and was grunting from pain. The poor little kid could/would not say what was really going on.
I hope they give him the help he needs. assuming he's a vaguely reasonable person, and not just a completely amoral psychopathic guy
oh Scrabbler - that is so awful
hey wurdy!
the numbers game played in Vegas casinos? and roadside taverns?
hey une!
Hi Wurdy
tr 6/24: tr + Spanish for eight, change last vowel
Is he under arrest, Scrabbler? You have to report that in New York, don't you?
hey mom
keno?
Hi Folks...

Child abuse cases are very tough emotionally for everyone involved.
ki 4/8: relatives + vowel --- extend for the 5 and 6
yes wee man, with an i
I dont play gambling games, never heard of that one
hey smdnjv
Hopefully after they lock him up, the jailers will lose the key!
got it, Thanks!
Hi Wee_man..
Hi Smdnjv
yipee all k's are done
Many times the women hooked up to those brutes won't testify...
bye for now!
TY for listening.
When "I" rule the world, people who do those things to children will be tied to a post and have their skin peeled off inch by inch
Scrabs....so sorry abut the little fellow in your office today! He's in my prayers too.
No problem Scrabbler, we will keep him/her in our prayers
not that I've given this a lot of thought or anything
You have many burdens as a physician, Scrabbler... your heart must be so heavy at times. Hug.
yay, got the ki5 and ki6 :D thanks cybernan
Let me know when you are sworn in, Esprit, as I have some people for you to deal with.
I've no doubt
it's just beyond comprehension
An eight month old child close to here was beaten by his dad...little fella didnt make it. I cant help but sit and cry for these children.
hey a couple in Germany left their two girls (4 and 7) in the woods for not cleaning their room
what % of men like that are truly mentally ill and what % are just "evil"? scrabbler, do you have any idea?
These kids are picking up so much emotional baggage that will likely affect them forever, unless they get lots of love and nurturing.
dog is calling me. BBL
Bye Inge, thanks for the clues
how many words today?
sounds like hansel and gretel, inge
Then there is always the cycle of abuse which, in some cases, cannot be stopped, nor impeded.
for many it's a combo of drugs/alcohol, THEIR parents, poverty, etc.
I see a lot of what I would call "ordinary evil", at least with parents that I encounter in my career.
304 Chloe
thanks
It is a plague here in the South, too, Scrabs.
you're welcome
that's chilling, scrabbler
Some people just should not be parents
and lets not forget castration!
Absolutely, SMD!
I really do have sympathy for people who do such things associated with true mental illness. But *not* with those who are simply cruel
Cousin "earth"--are you on-line here? Your phone has been busy.
so often these men are both ill and cruel
Need to go. I hope to be back later. Bye for now.
im done at last
Bye, Mom
Congrats Oggy
Yay Oggy!
congrats, oggy!!
One of my son's and his wife traveled many miles, twice, to adopt their precious little children. They could not have "their own." Then there are worthless SOB's in this world that do not realize the gift they have been given when they have a child.

A very cute cow with a black, jewel-neck shirt. She has real personality

Josh thought maybe it was a turtle and you were creative with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turutle allusion.
Remind Josh who he's talking about. I barely know what mutant ninja turtles are. Are they nuts and caramel covered in dark chocolate?
hehehe... no, but those sound good! I want a Cat in the Hat one! I might have to use some of my mileage check and make it.
I definitely want the penguin, but I'm going to have to go soon to get it. C'mon up some Saturday (yeh, right at this time of year) and we'll go.

If you crash the party you will casue a fu***
"only meditation can calm the monkey mind..."
LOOOOVE chimps. that chimp in my icon is Alphie...i worked with him at a sanctuary in africa
got it ty
or what dogs shed + either/**
Inge i live down the street from anyas_wrath
ARE YOU SERIOUS???? I LOVE CHIMPS!!!! what sanctuary?
it's called Chimfunshi, in Zambia
her Dad just explained to me, you are Amara's friend
i got to literally hang with 2-3 year old chimps for like 5 hours a day, for a month
Not realy but im Lianas!
their families had all been killed by poachers
well, close
(anyone watching idol?)
tooknap, check out their website: www.chimfunshi.org.za
lol yeah
I want to go. . . website looks great . .
NO IDOL TALK FEATHER! not on in LA yet! :)
MonkeyMind, I think I saw a documentary on Animal Planet abut taht
sigh
oh yeah Inge..there was one. incredible.
a friend just went on a similar excursion but in the wild
i won't spoil anything....i just wanted to say i really like chris sligh's voice
Sadly, Alphie died a few years ago of a snakebite. he was my boy. :(
my husband is watching and will welcome your comments
any sign language there?
oh, the buddies!
Inge wats ur picture of???
Took...no, i did that up in Seattle though. At Central Washington University...did some volunteer work with those chimps up there that do sign language
tha'ts how i met the peeps I went to africa with
Took...Chimfunshi is totally in the wild. it's just an enclosed 500 acre area
That is a bromeliad, which anya's dad grows hundreds of
excellent. . . just watched the KOKO movie a while back ... maybe my friend went to chimfunshi. . . hmmmm
oh kool!!!!!!!
i wonder if your friend went here. wow. small world if so.
Koko's amazing. i'd love to meet her
i'm curious where your friend went...lemme know if/when you find out, ok?
yeah, I'll email her tonight!
But i don't think they're letting people actually out with the chimps anymore...they have too many now
too many people?
umm.............. im bored and can't get but 1 word!!!!!! =-(
Feather...I agree. Chris Sligh's voice is really sweet and sultry
to me he sounds like just an ordinary person singing
i'm not exaclty sure why they stopped. i went back in 1999 and i think they stopped in like 2001
i don't see what the appeal is at ALL
maybe liability? not sure
what kind of work do you do in the states?
toon, just look at the letters. there are lots of words that aren't hard to find.
melinda's my top hands down favorite though! love that girl
Toon, ac 4 : when your head hurts you have a head ****
me to feather! totally!
i like gina, but i don't think she's got what it takes to go all the way
O.K anya and i know Inge
Took...Jane Goodall speaks sometimes around Los Angeles...you should check her out. she's fascinating
the picknic pests are in the grid
ha6,33 after ha4,6 not easy
hursey..i think the appeal is that you just don't expect someone of his physical stature to have such a sweet voice.
I missed her a couple of months back, sadly
Hiya Feather!!!
hi lady
and Robin Hood shot with a bow and ar****
ugh, i have to suffer through another sanjaya song soon
she's really interesting. she doesn't seem to like people very much...but i can't really blame her. lol
lol feather
lol feather. i wonder if he'll ever be kicked off
god i hope so!
hurshy, that sticky stuff did indeed come from teh aphids in teh fig tree above the hamster cage
boy lakeesha and gina hit it good so far
there's a nice doc about her from about fifteen years ago. . .
Feather...don't you find him creepy?
am i doing ok with not spoiling the show for you monkey?
there is a lady on a hunger strike til he gets kicked lol
he reminds me of michael jackson, but without a good voice
yeah it's fine feather. i was just kidding
hurshy, did you hear me?
that's ok though, i can understand not wanting to have anything big spoiled! but it's hard not to say anything at all! ;)
lol i know
ha6,33 plz
sanjayas cool
Tooknap...she's truly one of my icons. so inspiring
but blake - oooft!
oh, right, blake! he's not been on yet
Jane Goodall, Joni Mitchell and Jeff Buckley :)

haley has definitely improved
she's not the best one but she's doing better
I have to do some translating, so I will leave for a while. Bye

It's a website where you say what you are doing in 140 characters or less...

he sounds very boy bandish
HE is a little flat
So it could be considered a lightweight blogging platform

Wasn't that a lovely doo, Douglas. Think how it will hurt when he yanks those rubber bands out.
i HOPE he didn't use rubber bands!
i don't want him on the show, but he's a nice kid, and that is PAINful
It looked like rubber bands. I wish he would get voted off.

Hi everybody. I just got here and decided not to even attempt this grid. I often don't finish; but this is just too many words in 1 grid tonight!
Hi Nef
That is Phil, Douglas
He's gonna get ripped by Simon, with the same criticicm he gave to the girl who sang True Colors...
Any clues for ca7 and ca8? I am stumped!
Oh, well

Oh, yes, of course, I never would have figured it out. Thanks, mom---
This is both a large and nasty grid...
You're welcome Sewwell, it was a clue given early this morning.
Gee wee man, that is pretty good.
what kind of word IS ca7? If that is acceptable; they should really take a lot more medical terms than they do here!
are there any words that end with the "ism"?
one that I know of, Monkeymind
k. thanks mom!
i know, but i eanna finish
tr 6/24
when i close my eyes i still see the grid :(
ah. got it mom, thanks!
lol wee man

fu 7: what the dog sheds + feline + vowel
American Idol Fans: if anyones wondering why Sanjaya is still there, see www.votefortheworst.com
what hair of animals + not dog + vowel then plural
Thanks!
my first grid (yesterday) was 246, and todays 304 - i mean jeez. i saw there was one there was only 35 words.
thanks for the clue, lbd!
the really short ones are very difficult as well
the grids fluctuate a lot wee man - you'll get a small one soon :) but the little ones can be harder :O
Firefly, our son told me about that site.
yw Pam
So, who do you think did the best tonight?
are they inge?
I liked Melinda the best
How about you, Douglas?
omg - i finally greyed the M in the bottom right corner
Blake and little 'Retha, the lady who did "Heaven Knows"
Congrats Firefly
I tried that site, they have so much traffic they told me to come back later
go firefly
wd firefly
That would be Melinda, Douglas
but i still have 123 words to get! sigh...
i have 6 greyed, but one was alreadt
178 left here
it's my 5th greyed, not including the given one
and i just saw i have NONE of the middle E
So should I, you know, vote for them?
sure, Douglas.
go for it Douglas! They're both good (it's not on here yet, so i haven't seen them tonight though)
Can I do it from the AI website?
I think Grammaterri said she voted to Blake five times
you have to call in Douglas
no, Douglas you have to call
oh! got those E's greyed now :)
good deal Firefly
yay firefly :)
I am giving up. Thanks for all the clues. Good luck Wee Man, I hope you make it to the fireworks. Good night everyone.

Can you cast a nega-vote? A vote for someone to be removed from the proceedings?
that is how it SHOULD go, until the top five, in my opinion
nope Douglas - just don't for them
Don't we wish, Douglas
but, if you can cast more than one, i guess you can effectively do it by voting for everyone but them.
Now I am gone. Good night all

first one is the thing we wear belts around, 2nd is the plural of the 3rd 4.8, 3rd, is plural of to expect something, the last is trash or rubbish
its my last w
body part around the middle, and time wa*** for no man
wa*** material, you put your wa*** in the trash or the toilet or whereever
i got those 3 wa5/18s, theres 4
:'(
this sucks :p
plural the 4th 4.8
