3:29 am

3:29 am

im just over half way

3:30 am

It's one where you can get lots of sequences going - and plurals galore.

3:30 am

there are so many words that I don't know which to enter next !

3:30 am

which is good for me! but having probs with some 4 ltr ones....oh well!

3:31 am

I know, Karys, you see them and think you've entered them..... that's Lickety's next project, mind reading.

3:31 am

3:35 am

Hello elmer - it's a nice grid.

3:35 am

hax is being modest again

3:35 am

hubby uses it sometimes to talk to his son in Aus.

3:36 am

there u go again haz...nobble? lol

3:36 am

granny haz had her pic up one day did you see it she got so many compliments she took it down

3:36 am

Nobble - a gentle form of sabotage.

3:36 am

yep i did...it was great but she prefers spangle

3:37 am

gotcha haz...learning so many "words" its mind boggling!

3:37 am

Spangle looks good all the time - it takes a bit more effort for me!

3:37 am

LOL

3:37 am

got to admit spangle one good looking dog

3:38 am

She is!

3:38 am

have to put an 's' on the end of everything, just in case !

3:39 am

hi herin

I just got in and hello

3:55 am

hello ata (:

3:55 am

cup ot tea time...back in a mo'

3:56 am

Good morning - I was just tackling the obesity problem in the grid.

3:56 am

cute huh?

How large ate spaniels meant to be (in weight) also are spaniels paws big? I saw a very old spainel and he was about 35kilo

3:57 am

It pulls no punches (fa4/7, fa5/16, fa7/40, fa6/27, fa6/27)

3:57 am

hobbit's about 22lb

3:58 am

fa7/40??

3:58 am

Another plural for the obese ones, add a vowel.

Thats about half of what the dog weighs

3:59 am

I mean 22kg *sigh*

3:59 am

ty haz

Thats ok AT and thanks has

4:00 am

how heavy is spangle, haz?

4:00 am

ty Haz

opps thanks Haz

4:00 am

I have precisely no idea, Atalante.

4:00 am

LOL

4:00 am

Dedicated owner, eh?

4:01 am

well go weigh her, herin wants to know :P

Im just curious as i had never seen a spaniel so well round. too cute though

4:01 am

She would give me 'the look'. 'Why should I stand on the scales? Don't you love me as I am?'

4:02 am

some spaniels are pretty heavy. Clumbers must weigh a *lot*

4:02 am

awwwwww

4:03 am

hobbit's back to the vet in an hour to see why she's limping

oh poor Hobit

4:03 am

I know ... poor babe

4:04 am

She's probably sprained something - Spangle specialises in being too enthusiastic for her own good. The circulating pre-walk would do me an injury as well if I tried it.

What did Hobit do?

4:05 am

yes, I think so. but she's been limping for about a month now, so I think its worth getting some x-rays done just to check her back leg / hip

owww poor puppy

4:06 am

we had a King Charles that used to jump as high as my shoulder for his pre walk

4:06 am

Yes, if it's been going on that long you need to investigate.

Thanks Haz for the FA clues

4:06 am

she had some painkillers last week and was fine on them. as soon as they stopped, she started limping again *sigh*

4:06 am

You're welcome - they're not particularly nice words, but hey, they give the points!

4:08 am

I hope she gets sorted out Atalante - and I'd better go get ready to go out. I'll be back later to finish. Bye for now.

4:08 am

byeee :)

4:08 am

hurry back..

4:08 am

7:10 am

<POM POM TOSS AND TWIRL> for haz!!!!

7:10 am

Well, that's good news Atalante - she may need to be on medication but if it keeps her comfortable, that's the main thing.

7:10 am

glucosamine chondroitin really does help, Atalante.. but I hope she doesnt have dysplasia..

Poor pupy ATA at least shell be ok

7:11 am

I hope not too, but at least we've caught whatever it is early. hip dysplasia or arthritis (the other possibility). and ther vet just laughed when I asked if she'd be ok. she'll be ok for a good few years before needing "proper" medication apparently

Do you have Sashas formular in England

phantom tease! gragh!

She'll be fine, Atalante.

Fiber art-shows up fine, cute too

10:21 am

Cracking toast, Fiber. Looks vaguely familiar, though.

10:22 am

I have no imagination! I thought of a martini glass--"toast on toast"

10:22 am

argh-too early for that kind of humor! lol

10:22 am

Or is that champagne?

10:23 am

you looking for the same one sherb?

ch6/24 to win underhandedly- switch middle vowels + 1st vowel

10:23 am

yep

10:24 am

no imagination??? that from the creator of such amazing works of art!

10:24 am

thanks silver! I'd never have found that!

10:25 am

i have to say, this game is helping my vocabulary... although i am not sure i will ever use some of these words in pleasant conversation.

10:29 am

Hi everyone. CLue for the last ch6 pls?

10:29 am

there are some mighty useless words every day

10:29 am

it's improved my word search abilities, no end. :)

10:30 am

I can honestly say this game has made no difference to my conversation... just taught me loads of words that occur nowhere other than in Babble...

10:30 am

10:34 am

sa5 = miserable + male pronoun...

10:35 am

heh. don't think I'd have tried that on my own....

10:35 am

sounds worrying carlee...

10:35 am

the first rule of babble is that enable rules. the second rule of babble is that all other rules are are subject to the whim and caprice of the individual user, and are subject to change without notice.

10:35 am

ty for the da6/7 carlee and sftami

10:36 am

Well stated Babble.

10:36 am

er, thanks for clearing that up BR...

10:36 am

10:37 am

Good morning, (nearly afternoon here) to all. How is everyone: Kat, FMitch, BabbleRabble-rouser, sherb, ConX, kc, Fiber, SgtA... and anyone I missed! Gorgeous here, and the gardens are looking wonderful due to hard work and great sunshine!

10:37 am

it's one of those Scots-sounding words...

10:37 am

Happy day Scarlet!!!

10:37 am

rework the ha4 that means to dislike intensely

10:37 am

raining here scarlet, am ok, bit tired and babbling when i shouldn't be....

10:37 am

--but there's no 'e' in sight--

10:37 am

hi there Scarlet... thought you were mrp to begin with... :)

10:38 am

Hi, Scarlet!

10:38 am

look the other way...

10:38 am

Hello all - back for 57 between making supper etc

10:38 am

oh yes there isd! lookin gthe wrong way. Thanks sherb

10:38 am

Oooh, ConX... I wish I could send some petunias and vincas your way to bring a smile to your rain-laden weather... and sherb, and Fiber!!

10:38 am

hi ursh

10:38 am

Hi, ursh and hetty!!

10:39 am

Our weather is great right now, but weeds rule

10:39 am

Good day, Scarlet. may today bring peace and all things good to you.

10:39 am

that's be nice scarlet! *received wish with smile*

10:39 am

Hi Scarlet! Top of the morning to you.

10:39 am

plural that one too hetty

10:39 am

I haven't changed the lime-cat icon since last week... the one in honor of mrP... too busy wrangling with roots and weeds and hardpan shale-packed soil...

10:39 am

And top of the day to you, hetty! :-)

10:40 am

thanks, sgt. Always get the plurals. I can do the simple things!

10:40 am

are you redoing garden because of the flood you had?

10:40 am

(that was for scarlet)

10:41 am

I've spen ages trying to upload piuctures ino flikr. I need someone who is not cybernetically challenged to show me how.

10:41 am

the plurals sometimes mess me up if the word can me made two different ways

10:41 am

down to 3

10:41 am

I hardly ever SEE the plurals!

10:41 am

So I'm staying with the present icon for a while yet

10:42 am

*Hugs to ConX.* Thank you, BR-r. The peace always comes from within, but good thoughts are well received. Fiber... We just moved here in Dec. of 2005, and my husband underwent some serious therapy (radiation treatments) for the first half of 2006... so, no gardening. I've been depressed and worried lately, so: voila! Gardening... and bowing to the will of nature instead of a downward spiral in my spirit!

10:42 am

It's a beautiful icon, hetty, leave it alone

10:42 am

Good wishes to you, Scarlet, and your husband, and the earth you are shaping

10:43 am

Hello, all.

10:43 am

*Wiping a little tear away*... Thank you, Fiber.

10:43 am

o scarlet! my thoughts are with you! nature has such a powerful way of recovering itself and with a little LTC will give you all you need.

10:43 am

I'm all for garden therapy

10:44 am

garden therapy is underrated -- it works

10:44 am

Thank you all... fellow humans with a kindred spirit...

10:44 am

Hi bookwoman

10:44 am

I find being outside and working with my hands helps depression

10:44 am

is your husband doing better?

10:44 am

You can really get lost just digging up weeds

10:45 am

Lost in a good way

10:45 am

Carlee, how are you? Hanging in there?

10:46 am

Exactly, SgtA... There is the fragrance of earth, little scurrying critters, the beauty of working a postage-stamp piece of the planet and putting in a bit of beauty... kiss the rest to God, and water faithfully... What else does a person need beyond the basics?

10:46 am

Scarlet, you are a brave and beautiful person. My prayers go gardening with you

10:46 am

I am deeply moved, hetty. Thank you very much.

10:47 am

*hugs scarlet and sends small private rain cloud with on/off switch to help in garden*

10:48 am

conx, do you have a supply of those clouds with switches??

10:48 am

fireworks (that is if I were upgradedto get fireworks lol)

10:48 am

I must tell you abot my dear husband though, who yesterday cleaned up our deck--potted plants and bugeoning seedlings all over--and threw out some seedlings I was carefully nuturing (they weren't showing any signs of greminating yet)

10:48 am

Yah, SgtAmi!!!

10:48 am

get upgraded, sgtAmi! And whopee anyway

10:49 am

*shakes Carlee's pompoms wildly for SgtAmi* YAYYAYYAY

10:49 am

lots of er and re and plurals today........yikes

10:49 am

Oh, those husbands. I won't let mine mow. Anything that sticks up from the ground gets leveled

10:49 am

hiya scarlet -- hope all is going well on your end...

10:50 am

can someone please clue the first ha 5? It's killing me

10:50 am

I had nursed them through their wetting and resting time in the frig so carefully--they were from New Zealand and I so wanted to see them row here, where the climate is so similar. . .

10:50 am

Hetty, you are making me cry

10:50 am

Hi everyone

10:50 am

so yes, those husbands it is

10:50 am

That is funny, hetty... husbands have a way of being "helpful" sometimes and sometimes, disaster follows. EvaNadine... just chatted about my gardening "therapy" for the depression, and I am renewed! Thank you for your concern. *hugs*

10:50 am

so when is his funeral Hetty?

10:50 am

Hi, peri

10:51 am

Hi, peri!

10:51 am

hi, periwinkle

10:51 am

Oh, hetty... is there any chance of recovery?

10:51 am

thefirst ha5 is an archaic way of saying "had you?"

10:52 am

think ha4/5 with an added "d"

10:52 am

speaking of gardening, I just bought a red begonia and yellow mum for containers on my balcony. They do brighten things up :)

10:52 am

hello all, just getting in this morning, hetty tell alan he has a black thumb! and Scarlet et al, my garden has probably literally saved my life. Though it never looks as good as I wish in its entirety, it always has "moments of perfection" that make it satisfying.

10:53 am

HI stidmama

10:53 am

sounds happy and bright, peri!

i cant wait- my fiance and i are moving soon to a place where i can have a garden

10:53 am

I always think the garden will look better next year. I'm usually wrong.

10:53 am

Hi silverdust

10:53 am

if they do well, I will buy more flowering plants. I have only grown herbs so far

10:53 am

And stidmama

10:53 am

I'd like to grow herbs, not enough sun

10:54 am

No Scarlett--every "spare " pot of soil was ruthlessly thrown around to further fee bushes etc. Unless there's a Jack in the Beanstalk sedquence, we'll never see those starry wild flowers from new Zealand --unless we go there again!

10:54 am

Ouch!

10:54 am

well congratulations on that silverdust! nothing like space for a garden to make one dream and plan (and eventually do)

10:54 am

Time to schedule a trip to New Zealand, clearly

10:54 am

I have basil and peppermin at the moment

10:54 am

*peppermint*

10:54 am

LOL Fiber! hetty only just got home from there!

10:55 am

Peri, do any herbs grow in the shade?

10:55 am

I can never seem to grow basil. Everything else does fine, but basil comes up, leafs out and croaks.

10:55 am

Yees Fiber--hence the seeds!

10:55 am

not sure Fiber, I will check, brb

10:55 am

The famous toad basil

hi book

sorry, distracted

10:56 am

That is sad beyond words, hetty... perhaps a greater plan at work here... peri, do you know, I cannot find peppermint here... even seeds. I grow a great deal from seeds, and have planted areas with the mammoth sunflowers and the Aztec mid-range ones, surrounded by variegated marigolds and vinca vines.... Hi, stid. My basil is thriving in this heat!

i have 17 to go!

10:56 am

my basil never grows cos i eat it too quicly....

10:56 am

Stid knows my history so well. And my husband too. I sometimes wonder whether we should swap (husbands, that is)

10:56 am

No problem. Pleased to see you back.

10:56 am

go silver, GO!!! *pompom shake*

10:56 am

It sounds like a good time for a swap

10:56 am

mint will grow in the shade, fiber -- any kind of mint. peppermint, chocolate mint, lemon balm (a type of mint)...

10:56 am

Go Silverdust!

10:57 am

Scarlt, a greater plan is forever at work

10:57 am

what's this ha7 word - the one before the hurry word...

10:57 am

Thanks, Stid--

10:57 am

LOL hetty -- maybe we should send our husbands to live together and you and I can grow our garden in peace!

10:57 am

i have a rather black thumb myself, but i always wished i were better with plants -- i ADORE looking at others gardens and landscaping...

10:57 am

Clue for 6,24?

10:57 am

Can you think of anything more beautiful than fresh mozzarella, fresh basil leaves, a lovely balsamic, virgin olive oil and Dijon vinaigrette with sliced Roma tomatoes...? Oh, My!!

10:57 am

OOOOO MY FAVORITE, Scarlet!!!!! :D

10:57 am

It's an extraordinary word--beginsd like "hurry" andends like veget***

10:58 am

hey EvaN! *wiping drool off keyboard after Scarlet's food talk* you just haven't found the right plants yet.

10:58 am

or fornic***

10:58 am

Fiber most herbs require full sun but some will tolerate partial shade like lemon balm

10:58 am

You can see where my mind is. All this talk of growing new life---

10:58 am

Fiber there are many websites about herbs, it wouldn't hurt to check them out

10:59 am

wow. that worked hetty, another word down!

ha+ one of the 50 american *****s

10:59 am

clue for ch6/24? You can't see where I'm looking, can you?

10:59 am

back...hey red

10:59 am

sounds scrumptious Scarlet

10:59 am

I guess I just assumed herbs need sun. I'll look into it.

10:59 am

Did you get the ha word, bookwoman?

10:59 am

yes.

10:59 am

It is from Mount Olympus, peri! :-)

book,which 6/24

10:59 am

thank you so much Silver!

10:59 am

ch6 - c + hurry

yw

11:00 am

speaking of herbs and mint, have you tried the Mohito's?

11:00 am

Hey carlee! did all go well??? *hands back much used pompoms*

11:00 am

ch6/26 looks as if you can't spell ch5/14, plus a first vowel

11:00 am

yea..its not as bd as I feared..thank god

11:00 am

what is Mohito's?

11:00 am

1st ch 6/24?

11:00 am

Hub is making hungry noises - better feed him or he will start cooking then takes me ages to clean kitchen - bbl to find last 30

11:01 am

Just don't let him near the garden, ursh

11:01 am

thank goodness for that! Sometimes our worry about the kids is more worrying than the worry itself...

11:01 am

childrens aid definitely involved...no police needed

11:01 am

bye ursh - go save that kitchen!

11:01 am

Hi, kat. What is wrong?

11:01 am

Are you ch**** or have you been?

11:01 am

CH6 = take word for playing a game unfairly -- swap the middle vowels around + add another vowel on the end

11:01 am

I can tell I missed something important this morning....

11:01 am

what happened carlee

11:01 am

my daughter did guide ( same as girl scouts ) camp this weekend

11:02 am

and she was put into a tent with a set of siblings

11:02 am

A Mohito is the "new" drink made with rum, club soda, a syrup and mint leaves - it's awesome. Could use one right now.

11:02 am

ty.

11:02 am

Yum--11 am, too early

11:02 am

Well, 50 yet to go and eucharist to attend. I'm off everyone--as stid says, "poof"

11:02 am

sounds good Mary

11:02 am

i thought mojitos had been around for quite a while...?

11:02 am

( I started the story yesterday stid..its still being revealed to me )

11:02 am

heh yeah mojitos are nothing new

11:02 am

see you later dear hetty!

11:03 am

hint for the fa 6/30???

11:03 am

the younger of the 2 siblings... i THINK is exhibiting early signs of manic depression... anyway..

11:03 am

bye hetty

11:03 am

FA6 = not mother

11:03 am

Was there an episode, kat?

11:03 am

Could be, but I just discovered them last year in Santa Fe, NM. Now they're serving them here in Chicago.

11:03 am

the younger ( this the first part ) during the night in a fit of tears and carrying on..asked my daughter to hang her

11:04 am

whoa -- how old is this girl??

11:04 am

oh man....

11:04 am

good evening all

11:04 am

now..my daughter took this as the kid was not serious... but when we put it all together with previous patterns...the pattern got....worse...

11:04 am

( the younger is 8 my daughter is 10 the older sibling is 11 )

11:04 am

oh jeez carlee, is your daughter ok?

11:04 am

hey sprite.... you're on late!

11:04 am

very scary carlee

11:04 am

Hey sprite!!!! NICE icon!

11:04 am

how awful, carlee

11:05 am

hi sprite

11:05 am

she is definitely adhd, ( yea she is... thank god )...the story goes on...

11:05 am

heeee ConX :) Thanks

11:05 am

that poor child, what is going on with her?

11:05 am

those poor kids.

11:05 am

thanks eva. Can't believe I missed that

11:05 am

so... the younger...has issues with authority

11:05 am

last ch5/14 please

11:05 am

Wow, carlee, how sad. Way too young for those kind of problems

wow carlee that's a lot to deal with

11:06 am

and she is her own worst enemy in that she is cuaght up in the whole self prophetized doom... "everyone hates me"

11:06 am

peri -- im not done yet, but the lost one i have is to play a game unfairly

11:06 am

so....

11:06 am

8 years old. What a pity

11:06 am

then was speaking to one of the other leaders ( and I am beating myself up as I am a leader..i just HATE camp..had I been there...she would have come to me )

11:06 am

thanks EvaN, have that one

11:07 am

peri... lets see... ch + 2nd vowel then immediately above and left

11:07 am

don't beat yourself up carlee, you can only do so much

11:07 am

This is a horrible situation, kat...

11:07 am

no blame on you carlee!!!!

11:07 am

it's kinda hard to clue

11:07 am

anyway..was speaking to another leader this am... and ( for those who do not wish to be offended.my language is goign to graphic..am quoting the 8 year old )

11:07 am

we can handle it

11:07 am

CH5 = CH + vowel + hook + cross

11:08 am

*deep breath* okay...

11:08 am

And...

11:08 am

nd it

11:08 am

*holds hands over ears*

11:08 am

this other daughter told her mom that the younger was dancing around the tent naked.. and told my daughter that she was going to shove my daughter head up her vagina

11:08 am

turns out..was NOt to my daughter...was to the older sister

11:08 am

last ch6/24 ?

11:08 am

this is at a camp where they are supposed to have fun?

11:08 am

There is some serious "stuff" going on in that family

11:08 am

oh NO!!!!

11:09 am

oh carlee.... very ungood

oh dear

11:09 am

I'm so sorry, carlee

11:09 am

hence... I do not need to call the police..as she did not touch my daughter..did not threaten my daughter directly and did not assult her in anyway

11:09 am

yes, there is definitely something wrong with that child.

11:09 am

sounds like you did the right thing this morning

11:09 am

Children are taught sexuality at that age... this is not stemming from the child... she sounds broken...

11:09 am

But she definitely needs help

11:09 am

thanks..it sok....when I went to lunch I was expecting that this kid did do this to my daughter...and that I would be calling the police

book- plural of to play a game unfairly

11:10 am

so am feeling a great deal of initial relief

11:10 am

help with the first ch 6/24??

11:10 am

ty.

11:10 am

yes, the child needs serious help, now. That is just too bizarre.

11:10 am

now..we need to deal with the other rot

11:10 am

I am so sorry that your daughter had to deal with that this weekend.

11:10 am

Oh, kat...your poor daughter. *Strong hugs and hand-butterfly kisses*

11:10 am

Still a shock for your daughter to be confronted with this kind of stuff! Lots of LTC for her - and you Carlee!

11:10 am

thanks all

11:11 am

KC -- take the word for playing a game unfairly, swap the center vowels around + add a vowel to the end

11:11 am

yea....I will pull her from school one afternoon this week and we will amke jam for her dad or something

11:11 am

*hugs* for you and all my best to your daughter... not an easy thing at all

to play a game unfairly- switch middle vowels, + 1st vowel

11:11 am

Your poor girl, though, to be exposed. I am glad she was able to go to you with what happened. It shows she trusts you and knows you love her.

11:11 am

thanks eva... never would have found that.. and *fireworks*!

11:11 am

I have to run now. Thanks, everyone.

11:11 am

11:14 am

indeed scarlet - nicely put.

11:14 am

bbl

11:14 am

11:14 am

11:21 am

okay, back again for a few while the oven heats up. bye carlee...

11:21 am

go silver gooo

11:22 am

hi stid

11:22 am

Hi, sprite! How are you feeling?

11:23 am

I got past halfway at the flip, then grabbed the list as soon as I got in this morning. down below 40... a good grid for today.

11:23 am

not too good actually... friend of mine all but dragged me to the doctor this morning because she saw how bad it went, and now I need to take antidepression medication, or whatever it is called... therapist was very happy with it. Guess I better give it a shot then ;)

11:23 am

hi again all

11:24 am

hi Ata

11:24 am

Hi, Atalante!! :-) How was your U.S.A. vacation?

11:24 am

Hi guys.

11:24 am

hey atalante!

11:24 am

hi Takumo

11:24 am

Anything is worth a try, sprite... especially when we are dragged into stasis... I feel for you. *Hugs*

11:25 am

great in some ways, not so great in others, but that's life. there are loads of pic on my flickr account a page or two back

11:25 am

oh sprite, so glad your friend did that! yes, DO give the medication a try, remember it can take about 4 weeks for some of them to really start working, so stick with it at least a month.

11:25 am

yeah, I was kind of glad my friend took control for a moment. I was so totally stuck I couldn't even think about any solutions anymore

11:25 am

I found that a quick diary each day helped me see the progress I was making...

11:26 am

hey takuma!

11:26 am

antideps can be the best things ever. what did they give you?

11:26 am

they've worked very well for me!

11:26 am

I was warned that at first the side effects would be much more noticeable than the good effects, and that it will take several weeks to get to a high enough level

11:27 am

Sometimes we have to allow ourselves to really listen to the wisdom of others... I sincerely hope the meds do a good job for you, sprite.

11:27 am

something new... let me see, not xeroxat or prozac anyway... si-something-paran

11:27 am

I'll check the name, hold on

11:27 am

yes, be patient with yourself for a few weeks (though I know that can be hard). Sprite, i have been there, too. Some days, I am still there... but it does get better.

11:28 am

Hi, Takuma!

11:28 am

it is citolapran

11:29 am

thanks for the support, guys, I d*mn sure need it atm :)

11:29 am

around here, it's called by the brand name "celexa"

11:29 am

oh celexa

11:30 am

Sprite, not all meds work for all people... your therapist may "shop" different medications for you until you hit the right one for your metabolism... don't be afraid to try things after you've given one a good trial run...

11:30 am

I have tried and had good results with others from that class. I hope it works well for you, too (for me the side effects were few besides drowsiness which wore off quickly)

11:30 am

Howdy! And now that I've made my greetings, it's time for me to get going for a bit. good luck, all!

11:30 am

doc said it worked better for most patients than xeroxat and prozac, was milder and had less side effects

11:30 am

later takuma, hope your day will be good!

11:30 am

bye Takuma

11:30 am

I've heard good things about it too

11:31 am

Have a wonderful day, Takuma! :-)

11:31 am

and I guess I could do with a bit drowsiness, if that helps me take things easier and slower for a bit... doc and therapist said today I am literally exhausted.

11:31 am

brb bread's ready for the oven!

11:31 am

seroxat isn't worth taking, I don't think, unless somehow you know you'll be the lucky one which it works wonderfully for

11:31 am

need one of the first ch 6/24 please, have the pure one

11:32 am

Somehow I have trouble feeling that myself... I always feel like if I really want to, I can do whatever has to be done. Not counting the costs, probably, to my health and energy... ah well, what do I know.

11:33 am

magzel - ch6.23 - sounds like a wild cat - change one of the vowels

11:33 am

any mail yet, Ata?

11:33 am

Hi, KnightTime!!

11:33 am

hi knight and magzel.

11:33 am

hello all

11:33 am

Hi, magzel!

11:33 am

sprite - could you manage to get rid of cancer if you really wanted to? pneumonia? kidney failure? then why depression?

11:33 am

nooooooo

11:34 am

hi scarlet

11:34 am

Well said, Ata.

11:34 am

hi stid and thanks knight, odd word

11:34 am

argh, stupid snailmail.... Yeah, I know you are right, it is just that... guess I am too used to just push myself and proof I am worth something

11:34 am

sprite, that is how I am... but I have learned to not push myself too far trying to get things done (hence my lackadaisical attitude toward housekeeping) -- I have some physical problems too, and when I overdo it physically or emotionally it makes my whole system shut down.

11:35 am

I can really relate to that, stid! That shutting down perfectly describes it.

11:35 am

same with me ... I've had to go through all of this. trying to accept one has bipolar and will be on mood stabilisers, antideps adn goodness knows what for ever more is hard work. but its just chemicals. like any other illness

11:36 am

and yes, no amount of hoping or denying helped... but a good diet, getting outside in my garden, and finding babble have really helped; and the medications got me to where I could do the other things that supported my health -- remember this is a chemical thing like hypothyroidism.

11:37 am

that's what my doc says... way too little serotonin makes that every decision I have to make takes tonnes of energy. Even picking what to eat for dinner or what to wear or even whether or not to get up in the morning.

11:37 am

thanks for sharing that, guys... that helps too.

11:37 am

exactly

11:38 am

{{{{{sprite}}}}} you are going to be okay. and we are here if you need us!

11:38 am

The inertia can be staggering, Sprite.... give the meds some time, and maybe you'll recognize the old "lady" who lives within... Here's hoping and praying that that is the case! *hugs*

11:38 am

:D Thanks! Your support means so much to me and really helps me stay grounded, if you know what I mean.

11:39 am

I have hit the magic "25" to go point!

11:39 am

Yes!

11:39 am

yes, just try and wait out the next few weeks. you'll feel like its not working for a while, I'm sure. Just stick in there

11:39 am

ah, that would be SO great!

11:39 am

:-)

11:39 am

yay stid, wtg

11:39 am

yes, sprite. grounded. with rich, loamy soil, ready to plant, ready for the dormant beauty within to shine forth. :-)

11:40 am

might even do something in my garden in a while then :)

11:40 am

Gardening has worked magic on my eroded soul these past few weeks...

11:41 am

oh here's a good example of how these things can work. I started taking lithium about 4 years ago. About 3 weeks later, I had such a strong urge to draw (for the first time since high school). and the rest is history. Meds can allow you to return.

11:41 am

personally, I highly recommend gardening for all sorts of things. Unless your sinuses are stuffy like mine are today... then bending and stooping is just agony. :-(

11:41 am

Atalante! that is a WAY COOL, wonderful thing!

11:41 am

ow WOW Ata, that is a wonderful example

11:41 am

bending and stooping is out of the question, but I could take a stool...

11:41 am

thought you'd like that :)

11:42 am

on the other hand, the medications did nothing about the "mommy body" I had acquired... LOL

11:42 am

but they do give you more energy to go for a walk, go for a swim ...

11:42 am

Sprite - I'm coming in on the tail end of the conversation but for my contribution, please take the meddication if it is offered. It may not have to be forever, it may be that a short course is all that is needed to make you see the world in colour again. I, too, speak from personal experience.

11:43 am

question - is there anyone here who *hasn't* been on antidepressants / similar things at one time?

11:43 am

yes, they do. And a stool for gardening is a great idea. Also planters... I have a number of things in pots and when my back is really bad Tom put them up on chairs so I can work.

11:43 am

ah, I can live with my mommy body, my husband thinks I am the sexiest thing that walked (or stamped) the earth and I like everything except my too big belly. Only if I had some energy... I love to hear you say the meds might give me some back.

11:43 am

Hello, Haz... it seems that many of us have had to admit our powerlessness and accept some hard realities...

11:44 am

Hello Scarlet - yes, I fought against it for some time, but a short course of medication made me see reality again.

11:44 am

you guys are the best, plain and simple. Thanks for being there, sharing and reaching out. I mean that. Hubby calls for dinner, have to be off now, back later.

11:44 am

fa 7/40 please

11:44 am

your energy will definitely return, sprite :-) you will find that you enjoy many things again that you had put aside, and it will be nice

11:44 am

*hugs hugs*

11:45 am

later sprite!

11:45 am

fa 7/40: plural the obese one

11:45 am

Later sprite. Taste your dinner tonight!!

11:45 am

fa7/40 - another way of calling the obese ones (add a vowel to the other plural)

11:47 am

thanks al, got it

11:47 am

hads

11:47 am

sorry

11:47 am

ha. got the dratted ts word by myself!

11:48 am

TEN left!

11:48 am

and now I need help... DA 5/16 please?

11:48 am

da5/16 - a Russian country house, I think. d plus a pain, last vowel changed.

11:49 am

thanks HAz!

11:49 am

and the second DA 6 then?

11:49 am

You're welcome - it's a variation on a theme, add another consonant to the house

11:49 am

isnert the cross letter stid

11:50 am

aha! tricky words! :-)

11:50 am

down to 6!

11:50 am

the FA 6/27 after the plural obese word?

11:51 am

Hello Babblers

11:51 am

hey nanette! :-)

11:51 am

Getting more obese by the minute, stid.

11:51 am

Hello, Nono!

11:52 am

good day all need a clue for the 1st ch 6/24 have the pure one

11:52 am

got a decent start on the grid this morning .... now to finsih it

11:52 am

I have that one, need the one next to it...

11:53 am

Both fa6/27 are about the obese, the other one is an insult to plural of them.

11:53 am

Stid do you have two pl obese ones?

11:53 am

first ch 6 is same first three letters, then put a vowel in and abbreviate british Thanks Alot!

11:53 am

Guten Tag, babblers. Have been following the chat and am fascinated. NO anti-depressasnts here but too many blood pressure meds I always that I will forget an important one, since I am not here in the evenings so often.

11:54 am

*facepalm* duh! thanks nanette and Haz!

11:54 am

12:18 pm

S'okay to ask for clues. We all do it. Mush brain strikes even the best babblers.

12:18 pm

Newbies have to ask questions, bwJ... it's the only way we can get our brains accustomed to Babble-Mania...LOL

12:18 pm

I try to give as many as I get--not always good clues.

12:19 pm

LOL, Judi... good description for hitting the wall...

Sweet, that's great you're trying, but remember that this is a game that adults work hard at - so don't expect everyone to just make it easy for you! If you're only nine, finding just a few words on your own is a great goal!

(unless it's a small grid) I'm usually writing during the day, so I take breaks by babbling

1:23 pm

ooooh then a beautiful name sorry kazbo i didnt know what that meant

1:26 pm

peri, saying little

1:27 pm

thanks Jen

1:27 pm

At least the gardens are a little greener now

1:27 pm

eh, Takuma! Am I lacking in ta4/5? I'm just feeling impatient with the attitude that it's other people's responsibility to make a game fun for someone!

1:27 pm

yw :o)

1:27 pm

I am with you, Vicuna

1:27 pm

Hi all

1:27 pm

hi Trident

I'd never accuse anyone of that, least of all you vic.

1:28 pm

(Phew. Glad to know I'm not going to stand out as the only grinch in the crowd! lol)

1:28 pm

Vicuna Im with you, had to similar this afternoon with one of the youngesters

oops. sorry. I'd never accuse anyone of th4/5

1:28 pm

True Kazbo but the weeds needing hitting into shape and potting on has to be done:)

1:28 pm

lol, you are very un-grinch-like!

1:28 pm

lol, Takuma! It's a tough grid for accidental use of words today!

1:28 pm

no peace for the wicked!!

1:29 pm

Not a grinch Vicuna!

1:29 pm

nm got both of them

th4/5's the problem with these big grids -- too easy to land yourself in the penalty box!

1:29 pm

but it is stuffed with great goodies, Takuma

1:29 pm

Ahhh... basking in the acceptance of my peers!

1:29 pm

taku..are u being bad again

1:29 pm

Vicuna .. and i haven't asked for a clue yet !! what's been going on ?

1:29 pm

1:34 pm

Hi atalante my dog used to love the beach but struggles these days just to walk round the block

1:34 pm

1:43 pm

I have 80 left and won't have time to finish -- thought I'd just drop in and show you my icon for today's theme, Images on Toast. I thought this one was interesting...

1:43 pm

1:43 pm

yours always are, jilli

1:44 pm

I still need 88 which surely can't be normal words, can they??

1:44 pm

ooohh good idea takuma

many of us are women, pan -- no asking that question!

1:44 pm

OOPS sorry Vicuna - hope they spelt out a word :)

1:44 pm

Old enough to know better, PAN. (Code yellow, everyone!)

I mean, I'm not, but I do try to be sensitive to the other half (which is a majority here) ;)

1:44 pm

you'll be surprised, kazbo, how many of them are :)

1:45 pm

yes, Vicuna!

tr5/10?

1:45 pm

I'll never be as old as I feel or look right now, that's for sure

1:45 pm

oooh code yellow ahhhhh

1:45 pm

1:45 pm

trick or tr5, Takuma?

1:46 pm

tr5/10 - I have a pl of tr4 that rhymes with dogs and parakeets

sorry to hear that, sprite! that'll change with time

1:46 pm

YAY ursh, hi again all

1:46 pm

hi stid

1:46 pm

vi - do you have the short/curt answer word?

1:47 pm

and Pan, many of us have our age in our profile :)

1:47 pm

and plural the birds, of course

1:47 pm

thank you ....

1:47 pm

and many of us lie about our age in our profile! (and our weight, and our shoe size as well)

oh, thanks sprite -- I didn't mean to ask for a clue, but it would take too long to explain. I forgot there was an actual tr5/10 in the grid ;)

1:47 pm

I do have the te5/10 meaning curt. Are you trying to hint to me that brevity is the soul of wit? lol

1:47 pm

I am an older lady !! :)

1:48 pm

lol Takuma

1:48 pm

*grin* take it as it pleases you, lady Vi!

hi everyone

1:49 pm

wat does curt mean?

1:49 pm

I really have to go now -- extra library shift, then helping a sight-impaired friend with email etc.

1:49 pm

oh well, maybe it'll help someone else

1:49 pm

hello helen

1:49 pm

Going to take a break. BBL.

1:49 pm

hi right back at you all :)

1:49 pm

abrupt

1:50 pm

wish I could, stid -- all indoor stuff to do!

1:50 pm

you can look that word up in the dictionary, pan, it means not wanting to say more than necessary

1:51 pm

later book!

1:51 pm

we all are te5 here. Never a word more than needed

1:51 pm

oh sprite, now that's just a FIB!

1:51 pm

hey, my words are counted... I stop at fireworks ;

1:52 pm

:-D

1:52 pm

Today, at 210 words, we are all less te5 than on a smaller grid day!

anyone have the first ch6/24 ?? (hi all)

1:52 pm

I am already trying to figure out supper tonight... it's going to be hot later. Might just want to have Tom grab something on the way home...

1:53 pm

true, 'tis a wordy grid, foresooth!

1:53 pm

stiddy, why are you in Brazil??!!

1:53 pm

ch 6/24: reverse the vowels in to win by subterfuge, and add a vowel at the end, Gwen

1:53 pm

that is an odd one, Gwen. To deceive at a game, switch vowels, add a vowel to the end. Sounds a bit like a hunting cat.

off for a bit. good luck, all!

1:53 pm

ch6/24 - what we do in this boc, with a vowel added before and another after that -t-

1:54 pm

oh, I got tired of the U.S.... LOL can't travel far in real life, have to take mental vacations instead!

1:54 pm

later takuma!

1:54 pm

Bye, Takuma.

aaaah, TY. i tried a lot of versions that sounded like decieve at a game, but of course not the *right* one!

1:54 pm

bye Takuma

1:54 pm

Actually, was trying to decide where to land next... Ireland sounds nice.

1:54 pm

verrrrry wet weather right now, I think, stid

Cs are done. only 33 more to go!!

2:18 pm

sprite, why do I think you live in a windmill?

heh, it'd take a *long* time for Dutch rain to get here, sprite - it'd have to go the long way 'round

2:19 pm

Do you mind if I ask for some short words I can't seem to find?

don't all Dutch people live in windmills?

2:19 pm

lollll stid... close to some, but not in... so probably because my mind is as twirly as one?

2:19 pm

go for it, bookwoman, maybe I can even clue them straight!

2:19 pm

not at all, bookwomanj, I am here to clue

I thought the only industries in the Netherlands were windmill operating, dike repair, tulip growing, and wooden shoe production

2:19 pm

Good evening one and all

2:20 pm

yea, and we all walk around with brollys and bowler hats :)

2:20 pm

we live in wooden shoes, Takuma, you should know that!

howdy ren

2:20 pm

from the top of the alphabet: at 4/4

evening ren

2:20 pm

*grin* maybe that's it, sprite. I have seen pictures and TV shows about people living in windmills. It looks like a fun and wonderful place to grow up.

2:20 pm

just has a quick look at the log - Stidmama !! you travel faster than the Starship enterprise :)

2:20 pm

plural of had for dinner, bookwomanj

2:20 pm

Ata, don't you dare go back into hiding!!

2:26 pm

ty sprite

2:26 pm

Have you heard about the new corduroy pillows?

2:26 pm

2:28 pm

I know I tried that. Silly Jane!

2:28 pm

thanks stid!

hi flask

2:29 pm

Er goldies oops sorry sweet you will just have to try and find some more 4 letter words by yourself or try again tomorrow

Missing the last W. Have we X 3 and wo4x2. What am I missing?

2:29 pm

hi flask1

2:29 pm

:-) don't forget its plural, too!

2:29 pm

Judi, a sorry excuse for a human being might be called this...

2:29 pm

I will stid

2:29 pm

I have stopped the experiment and hope to gather the remnants of my brains in due course

2:29 pm

a WR6, Judi

2:29 pm

stidmama use the google map satellite to see your chosen place!

2:29 pm

it's w + r5

2:29 pm

wr6/36

2:30 pm

hi Shoe and sweet92

2:30 pm

hello

2:30 pm

ty ty.

2:30 pm

good for you, BabbleRabble!

2:30 pm

good idea, bill! brb!

2:30 pm

wr6.26 = miserable person

2:30 pm

If i try to put in Ha*** - what eggs do I will SCREAM !!

2:31 pm

tried that at least 4 times, elder. No kidding.

2:31 pm

ooh! I see Canterbury, and Southend on Sea... wow. that delta is HUGE!

2:32 pm

ha4/8?

I've tried it twice, elder

2:32 pm

sprite, what does Haarlemmermeer mean? "that which is near to Harlem?

2:32 pm

Sprite thanks for you words of support - good to hear I am not the only one

surprisingly, the second time I fared no better!

2:33 pm

ha 4/8: the long pole attached to a spear or shovel

2:33 pm

Edinburgh is shown with high definition amazing

2:33 pm

Yeh right STidmama !!

2:33 pm

ty

and oddly, I tried 'catheter,' even after assuring myself it wasn't there

2:33 pm

no stid, a 'meer' is a lake, and Haarlemmermeer is a province that used to be water, near Haarlem, and now is land.

2:33 pm

Takuma yes as with you, i can confirm it does not work !!

2:34 pm

oh! that makes good sense. thanks sprite.

2:34 pm

I tried that one too

2:34 pm

worse is definitely a phantom.

2:34 pm

I have lived there most of my youth, stid :) In Hoofddorp, to be precise.

2:35 pm

and ether. I tried ether several times.

with all these 'S's, 'R's, and 'T's, this is a phantom playground

2:35 pm

Spooky!

2:35 pm

I kept trying "attack" but I am NOT feeling aggressive today...

2:35 pm

In view of the courageous , I bring out the old stand bys: Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle. ~ Plato Better to leit one small candle than to curse the darkness. ~ Chineses Proverb

2:35 pm

changing the last letter might help, stid ;)

2:36 pm

I like those, BabbleRabble.

do you know where in Plato that is, BR?

2:36 pm

and rehab is rehads Yikes !!

2:36 pm

ooh! I found hoofdorp!

2:37 pm

No ... maybe will do soome looking

2:37 pm

Better not step in it Stid. Sounds messy.

2:37 pm

YAY stid! That is where I grew up

I was just curious -- I've done some work on Plato. I'll take a look

2:38 pm

methinks it may have grown up a bit since then sprite? I looks like any U.S. suburb!

2:38 pm

but there are lots of lovely green fields nearby... :-)

2:39 pm

it goes the same way all dutch places go, stid... growing until they connect to another place, making one huge town. It used to be more green :)

2:40 pm

and Edinburgh is just plain HUGE! wow.

that's just what's happening to D.C. and Baltimore, sprite

2:40 pm

Same story all over unfortunately sprite

2:40 pm

yes, so it is in the United States also sprite. It makes me sad. All the lovely, fertile fields buried beneath things meant to last no more than a couple decades

which is a bit sad -- used to be lots of forests I liked there

2:40 pm

Copied the Plato into my quote collection, BR.

2:40 pm

it is really sad

ha 4, 8 please?

2:41 pm

ha 4/8: h + a 4 gives you the ha 5, then remove the last letter for the 4

we are losing all our lovely big victorian and edwardian houses round here. They are putting up these great big flats-apartments, lost forever

2:41 pm

that is why we have the garden, sprite. In my own subversive way, I am trying to make things more green and diverse...

2:42 pm

I like that thought, stid!

sneaky, stid ;)

2:42 pm

:-)

too sneaky!

2:44 pm

I am watching a garden show... they showcase gardens from all over the world. This one is in the bahamas... *sigh* it'll take a lot more global warming for those plants to grow here!

a guy just walked by with a shirt that said "I hear voices... they sound just like you," and he looked genuinely deranged

2:44 pm

what fish do you want next, bookwoman?

2:44 pm

oh takuma -- one of those philosophy types, no doubt...

2:44 pm

Oh, let's see . . .

2:44 pm

are you sure you weren't lookin in a mirror? *giggle*

2:45 pm

he 4/5?

some warming hypotheses have it getting colder in UK and northern Europe, since the flow of warm water from the south will be disrupted

2:45 pm

i understand bookwoman... utb alert?

5:18 pm

ur ok bookwoman, i hadn't read the other comment, thought what u said was for me!

5:19 pm

I don't know what utb is.

5:19 pm

the reason the puzzle is fun is because you are challenging yourself. if it is SO much of a challenge that you cannot do it and want people to help you with every word, then you would not find it very satisfying. you would just be bored and passing the time, whilst annoying other people. regardless of age.

troll in the house

5:19 pm

i don't know either bookwoman, but i think i can guess...lol

5:20 pm

Sweet does not understand when we try to help.

5:20 pm

It's structured the same way as a garment you wear with a tie, but not spelled the same..

6:33 pm

beaten*

6:34 pm

6:34 pm

6:35 pm

ah

6:35 pm

got it

6:35 pm

warmth, warmer, warmers, warms, southern expression for warms

6:35 pm

I've been giving this a shot about 3-4 times a week, and I just cant seem to break about 50%

6:35 pm

two more H's - i presume HA and not anything bizarro?

6:36 pm

ha and he

6:36 pm

be patient. and persistent.

6:36 pm

treefrog, do you have a strategy?

6:36 pm

i feel good when i get 50%

6:37 pm

and why the tree? aren't you proud to be one of the frogs in the glen?

6:37 pm

no, I just typically jump from letter to letter until I get frustrated

6:37 pm

I like treefrogs, the look wise to me

6:37 pm

you need a strategy - it keeps you on track when the words don't jump out.

6:37 pm

*bagpipes in the background*

6:38 pm

wrath, i feel bad if I don't get 100% everytime

6:38 pm

I don't have the mindset to pound away at a letter till I get every word associated with it

6:38 pm

find that too ... stressful

6:38 pm

that is one approach, but there are other ways to solve

6:39 pm

babble is... babble is... not stressful but... love is a battlefield... hurts so good... that sorta thing.

6:39 pm

use the lickety clues, and the math, i.e. let the point score be your guide especially for the 4 and 5 letter words

6:39 pm

I only have a few hours to throw away so i never finish un less it is a reall small one

go hurshy the poetry is flowing

6:40 pm

lol - but not original.

6:40 pm

how do you mean "point score" be my guide?

6:40 pm

sa 5/14 please

6:40 pm

hey knight... can you explain to me how the points work? because it's obviously not just straight addition for things longer than 5 letters... otherwise the ch6/24 would be a ch6/8

6:40 pm

sa5.14 = blue + male pronoun

6:41 pm

4's straight off tiles, 5's double, 6's triple, etc etc

6:41 pm

why ty kindly knight

6:41 pm

add the letter values then multiply. 4x1, 5x2, 6x3, 7x4...

6:42 pm

ah, that makes sense. thank you.

6:42 pm

so for example tree and jes, the ac4.5 tells you that the last 2 letters must be 1 point letters

6:43 pm

yeah, i just couldn't figure out why the longer words added up so fast :) i didn't know about the multiplying bit.

6:43 pm

the ca4.6 must have 2 2 point letters, the ca4.9 must include a 4 or 5 point letter, etc

6:44 pm

ahh

6:44 pm

then look at the letters available and do the math

6:44 pm

this eases the frustration and moves it from pounding the keys to thinking about the letters, much more fulfilling

6:45 pm

looks like babble is reeling in another addict

6:45 pm

that's what i meant by a strategy treefrog

6:45 pm

I used to play text twist on yahoo all the time, but this is much more ... in depth :)

okay down to ten all 4's and 5's clue for ta4/5? before the job one?

6:46 pm

ta + abbrev for 60 minutes

thanks

6:47 pm

go addict go

6:47 pm

argh what is the other ch6/24 with pure

6:48 pm

ah, but treefrog, the friendly folks here are what makes this so much better than text twist... even if you don't stress about finishing the grid, hang out and ch4/4 with people :)

6:48 pm

rhymes with a big cat hurshy - change one of the vowels

6:49 pm

hurshy, do you have the ch6/24 that means "creative interpretation of the rules"?

6:49 pm

I'm usually lurking about

6:49 pm

I just cant devote too much of my work day to finishing :)

6:50 pm

that's ok. nobody here thinks less of ya if you don't finish :)

6:51 pm

I'll get better in time, I'm sure everyone does

6:51 pm

st 6/21 please

6:52 pm

i've got 88 to go and i just got here only a little bit ago... it's a really easy grid

10:05 pm

JUL - did you use Lickety's list?

10:05 pm

What's Lickety's list?

10:05 pm

pretty good ADHD -- no big drama in my life lately, though I had a really odd occurence this weekend

oh boy...it just got over here, but thank goodness it's recorded whew

10:05 pm

scroll down a bit and you will see the friends of babble

10:06 pm

Open Lickety's in a separate window (it's easier)

10:06 pm

fa 7 hints?

tx for answering autumn. click on Angelsong's babble page. you'll learn all about this game

10:07 pm

Kirsten's stepdad is not doing well healthwise, so it was agreed by the family that I could borrow his Ford Explorer on an extended loan once Kirsten's mom got all the paperwork taken care of (just getting me added to their insurance)

you're not using babble expert autumn?

10:07 pm

not using what?

10:08 pm

140 without using the list?? I'm impressed!

are you using a PC or a mac

10:08 pm

Well, on Sat we drove over to drop the kids off with Gramma while we went to the movies (we saw Shrek the 3rd)

sorry to hear that woulf

10:08 pm

pc

lucky you woulf... i love shrek

10:08 pm

fa7 is plural of fa5/16, what an obese kid might get called

10:09 pm

When we got there, she told us that the paperwork was all resolved and that we could arrange to take the truck whenever we could arrange it

10:09 pm

the fates decided we need to take the truck then and there -- MY car

10:09 pm

oops

then email lickety moon... he'll send you the link f or the new babble browser... the list runs in the same window (if you want it to) and there are all sorts of fun additions. it's great

10:09 pm

MY car's starter died in the driveway, we had to take the truck so we could go to the movies!!!

10:09 pm

thx

good clue jane... that was me in high school...lol

10:10 pm

Do I have to do anything to the computer? It isn't mine and I have STRICT instructions not to add or download anything

i'm going to be buying a new truck... with a crew cab to hold the kids lol

10:11 pm

Thanks for the hint. I'll try it!

you have to download the babble expert and save it to the desktop. then just click on it to open it and play. close it when you're done. simple.

10:12 pm

buying at truck? Look at the GMC Canyon or Checv Colorado with the 5 cyl engine. Mine is great. Fuel consumption is almost as efficient as my 4cyl Hyundai was

whoa... i'd better get moving... i'm getting sleeeeepy, verrrrry verrrry sleeeeepy.

10:12 pm

I wish I could afford to buy a new anything -- I was looking forward to having the two vehicles, but I guess I am destined to have only one at a time -- the last time I had two cars, one of them cost me over a grand in repairs and then still died within two months of my getting it

i'm very interested in the Colorado w/the z71 package

do you have the chevy?

10:13 pm

i have the 2005 canyon. They're basically the same

the silverado is too big. we've go a 1995 silverado and it's not THAT big

the 2007 will come down in price in august... i want it then. i checked them out about a month ago. i really like the colorado.

10:14 pm

I have the extend cab - flip open side doors - instead of the crew cab. The only breathing thing that goes into the back is the furry child

10:14 pm

Is your Siverado a 6 cyl or 8 cyl

that sad woulf. my hubby bought his chevy from my son (who only put 34K miles on it) it's got almost 200K miles now and still going. we just put a new clutch in it.

i've got grown kids and 5 grandkids. my kids left at home are the furry kind. lol

10:15 pm

the Explorer is in great shape at least -- it is a 97 and only has 68000 miles on it

10:15 pm

does the very last fa6 build off the others?

wow... that's great!! i was looking to get one, but the silverado won't last much longer with his commute (an hour a day back roads), and I can't drive it anymore... bad joints

10:16 pm

the best part is that the car seats fit perfectly and I still have the room I need to carry stuff -- the Saturn is the most family unfriendly car I have ever encountered

he really wants a truck, so i'll drive it during the week (i don't work and put only 5K miles/year) and he'll have it when he wants a truck

i had to sell my saturn. which one did u have?

10:17 pm

the backseat was not designed with carseats in mind and the trunk doesn't have the right shape to fit anything unless you can drop the seats

it stunk for kids. i had an SL2

10:17 pm

It is a 95 SL1

i had a 96. i got 45 miles to the gal. on the highway. i MISS that

but u r so right... it stinks for car and booster seats

it was soooo easy to buy tho.

10:19 pm

*diving back into grid in hopes I might finish before bedtime*

me too... got 88 left to find. here i goooo

10:19 pm

The wildest part about the Saturn giving up the ghost is that the insurance expires in two weeks and the registration expires two weeks after that so the timing couldn't have been better

10:20 pm

I'll join you in the grid -- still have 62 at this point -- I only just opened Lickety's list

that's good. i ended up selling mine after i injured my ankle and couldn't drive a stick shift for 2 years.

okay then let's don our diving gear and jump in!!!

10:21 pm

I have a friend who may be interested in buying the Saturn so I will have to give him a call

10:21 pm

any help on the T 2nd row from the bottom?

10:21 pm

and hi all.

10:21 pm

*splash*

hi jbp

10:21 pm

hi jbp

not there yet... sry jb

10:22 pm

not that i don't love the saturn talk, since I have one, and it's my 2nd saturn of 2 cars ever ;-)

10:22 pm

and long may it drive

10:23 pm

how about the R next to the 2 in the middle of the 2nd from bottom row?

10:23 pm

the last fa6?

i'm going nuts trying to fine a stupid er4 (the middle one) i have no trouble with the big words... but the derned little ones are so elusive some times

10:24 pm

i only have dad and the pudgier one of the FA 6's

more hefty (bulky body) jane

10:24 pm

adhd - check the comparison (by the way, it's canadian funds and kilometres and litres) http://automotive.mytelus.com/automoti ve/tools/compare/compare.spy?CLS=Picku p&ID1=1072200106&Y2=2007&M2=Chevrolet& ID2=1071201510

10:24 pm

for that middle E... to make mistakes?

pudgier... that's a much better clue

10:24 pm

hee

10:25 pm

to er** is human?

tx autumn. i've been using carpointe, carefare and several others... i'll try that. brb gonna enter it

10:25 pm

to er.. are human you mean

10:25 pm

and homonym of to make money

10:25 pm

yeah, silly tense endings...

10:26 pm

jbp -- three of the T's are te4 -- homophone of to tu** around, te5 plural, then te4 - t + icky reaction + s

10:26 pm

I have 85 left and doubt I'll make it :(

i cannot copy that address in it's entirety moon. would you email me the link? word.lover@sbcglobal.net

10:27 pm

that's 3 of 4, thanks Grey

10:27 pm

oh, and to not be talkative is also a T off that one

10:27 pm

I would help with the 4th but can't figure out which one it is

10:28 pm

there you go!

10:28 pm

Does anyone have a clue for the st 6/21 word please?

tx for the er clue... i could use some help cleaning the fish guts off of me

11:32 pm

11:32 pm

Hi ADHD, Dispatch, rmcc & WOLFIE! (hugs Wolfie).

11:32 pm

evenin' all. down to 17... and having a horrid work night. pity me and give clues? *tries to look especially pitiable*

11:32 pm

silly me...i had them...just didn't enter them into lickety's list. oh my...

11:32 pm

the first e4 is making me crazy, help!

11:33 pm

jes - I'd ask why work's horrible but that would take up your last bit of grid time... so what clues do you need?

11:33 pm

not west, but ea**

11:33 pm

hi jes...i sympathize. i had a horrible work day too. i still have 16, but maybe they are different ones. what would you like to have a clue for first?

11:33 pm

Harp - the first e4 is a compass point.

11:33 pm

oops, i meant the firs er4

11:34 pm

jes -- you don't need to look pitiable -- we give clues freely

11:34 pm

ch6,24 after the silly voting things that cause Florida so much trouble

11:34 pm

i know, woulf. but i look pitiable in real life too, i'm sure.

11:34 pm

the second st6/18 anyone?

11:35 pm

and jac, you probably don't want to know... it definitely goes on the list of really gross things that most people never have to deal with, and nobody wants to.

11:35 pm

I'll read your journal blog sometime, jes.

11:35 pm

monkey united ******

11:35 pm

ch6/24 -- c + ha4 + first vowel

11:35 pm

jes, think of the the dishonest ch5 word. switch the 2 vowels, then add the first vowel to the end

11:36 pm

oh boy. how obvious was that. thanks rmcc1

11:36 pm

thank you dispatch :)

11:36 pm

passes fish to monkey

11:36 pm

any time

11:37 pm

Glad you answered that Dispatch because I had no idea if it was little men poking their noses over walls of worm bristles that cause voting problems in Florida!

11:38 pm

*or worm bristles. Quite changed the sentence that; me putting 'n' instead of 'r'. LOL.

11:38 pm

lol jac!!!

11:38 pm

the hanging ch4 was the butt of many jokes here in the states!

11:38 pm

hehe. well, now you know what that ch5/16 means to americans ;)

11:38 pm

Anyway - on with the clues! Not much time left before the flip.

11:39 pm

brb potty time

11:39 pm

rmcc - Get a commode. Very useful when you're Babbling! *grins*

11:40 pm

harp...smelly thing you might find in the undies drawer

11:40 pm

first ha5 -- plural the ha4

11:40 pm

or a catheter lol

11:40 pm

Harp sa6/24 & plural 7 - what shampoo comes in sometimes.

11:41 pm

harp, it's a small bag for carrying scented stuff in.

11:41 pm

thanks jes, just got it

11:41 pm

no, the ha5,14 before the ha4

11:41 pm

ha 5/14: past tense for has + abbr. for road

11:41 pm

lol very loudly, jes. that thought is mind-blowing. the mind pictures!!everyone sitting there and .......

11:42 pm

ha5/14 - the old form of 'had' - think Shakespeare.

11:42 pm

my bad -- sorry

11:42 pm

er... what mind pictures did i give, rmcc?

oh boy 7 left

11:42 pm

trets

11:42 pm

thanks, jac, dispatch :)

11:43 pm

y/w, jes.

cheez jes... we typed trets at exactly the same time.

11:43 pm

sorry jes, it was jacula. what can i say? i was laughing very hard.

only i'm using lickety's add so it won't show up in chat

11:44 pm

oh, the commode comment?

11:44 pm

Hope you didn't wet yourself, rmcc. LOL.

chat shows if you type more than one word. single words go to the grid add

11:44 pm

re8,50?

11:44 pm

yup, and that's started me off again.

11:44 pm

re8/50 - to put together again.

11:45 pm

jacula, stop it. fortunately i made it to the potty

11:45 pm

to reconnect a limb, jes
