Andy mostly. He's pretty good too. Kim hasn't shown any interrest. SHe plays spme other puzzles.
20 left and there's this giant wall in front of me....
wow the ip is weird!
Odd. It's mostly women in this group. We are definately in the minority.
well, there's still a few good men left ! lol
no, many more men (or blues) than usual at this time of night
definitely
border done

Besides, we like the company!

oh, sheesh, we're s'posed to be looking?
Actually, I just went to Who's Online. There are WAY more women on right now. The men are just the chatty ones right now. :-)
No clues yet for the 8's?

she is beautiful
babblers seem to be highly pet owning
bear? what kind is she?
nice people, nice game, nice pets
why won't it take moop -- singular of a trivial pursuit answer (according to george) on seinfeld!
bear is likely mixed with newfoundland, not sure what else

good eve all happy babbling
woo hoo muse!
i wonder if muse is even human
Hi, Kiwi!
hi kiwi
such claims
hi kiwi
holy mackerel, muse! I have 70 left -- but I've been wandering -- like your mind?
uhmmm, yeah I breathe, bleed, belch and bellow, I'm human
hi kiwi :)
lol, doc has inspired me!
hi kiwi
and justa
I have qu 4 x 2 and qu 8...anyone know the # of letters for the other 2
sorry i wasnt around last nite - didnt hve a very good day - eldest son (14) got beaten up at school yesterday and he has a broken nose some delayed concussion and bruising behind his left ar
qu5x2
oh my no kiwi, so sorry to hear that
ty muse
omg Kiwi that's awful
hi kiwi! sorry about that, hope he's okay.
eek, kiwi. hope he's better
is he home or in hospital?
ha -- got the pu8
hes home - but has to go back to hospital on thursday to the nose clinic to see if they will operate or not (after swelling goes down)
how are you doing? do you have good support?
wtg jilli
wtg jilli!
how did the school react to this incident?
im ok - just really pi$$ed at the school because noone officially has contacted us about the situation
oh -- kiwi -- your poor son!
hi flosey!
my heart goes out to him and to you, know you must have been heartbroken
so we are keeping kieran home from school until we get some action from the school and hubby and i will be there first thing monday morning demanding answers
how old is he kiwi?
Hi Fran, am just about to give up, need 2 more to be half way
hes such a quite boy and i think thats why the school bully has been pickign on him - hes 14
for sure Kiwi! they need to assure you that this won't happen again to anyone
maybe that isn't a bad thing... in our town, if a child is in a fight (regardless of whose fault), they are expelled. Did it happen on school property?
bullies whould be expelled
i'm pretty stalled with 36 left flosey, not finding the 8s.
and that boy's parents should also be called in
should, I mean
yes it happened at morning break - from what i hear the bully has been in trouble many times before for attacking other kids and they havent kicked him out yet
surprised everyone wasn't called in immediately
its a private catholic boys school too
someone really screwed up there then
when i got to school yesterday morning to pick him up and take him to the hospital he wasnt even in the medical room he was sitting in the corridor and noone was even watching him
I spent 9 years in catholic school. They need to send some tough Nuns after the bullies
the principal needs to deal with that boy's emotional/behavioral problems; bet his home is troubled
you'd think that wouldn't be tolerated in a private school.
poutine is not found in the dictionary -- don't tell the French Canadians (too bad montreal left)
unfortunately no nuns at this school
I agree fran and geek... wonder why he wasn't in med room, too.
the private schools back home would have just kicked that kid out for the public schools to deal with.
fran, lots of awful things are tolerated (or not noticed) in private schools. My son was among several abused by the choirmaster.
Geek, depends A LOT on the principal; they should have a no tolerance policy for hitting other
I remember they scared us enough to keep in line. I only hope they can do something to prevent things like this again.
opposite here, our public schools kick out kids and let our private schools handle them
well hubby and i will be there at 8.30am monday morning and will not leave until someone talks to us - then we are going to the police station to lay an assult charge against the other kids
groovy how are you and your hubby holding up?
kid sorry
that sounds like a good idea
That is awful Kiwi but I ahave tosay I don't think it matters if it is public or private.. It's the scholl administrators
I agree... In Vegas, there is a no bully policy. It just needs to be enforces and protect the kids that are just trying to go to school!
good for you, kiwi
im ok = just about calmed down now but it took a bit yesterday
my cat really needss to go on a diet http://tinyurl.com/3dyb5t
Good for you Kiwi! More parents should be like you
I can imagine! My blood pressure would have exploded by head.
ugh almost 230 night
i'm not looking forward to those types of issues when my son starts school next year.
night carra
G'night, carra
night carra!
I just went to my son's school today to confront his classmate about taking his sneakers....made him realize how much "trouble" my son would be in if his father found out
next thing is to find a good martial arts class in town and let him go to that- he needs it and wants to go too so will probably be a good thing
I've got 15 and 11 yr old boys. School is much different when I went. All we want to do is procect them or trust they are save when we are not there.
we'll see what happens; he is supposed to be replacing them
schools and teachers wonder why parents and kids don't respect them... well, they need to be responsible and authoritative to protect our kids
man, i have hit the proverbial wall, haven't found an word in 15 minutes
it was a tricky situation; tried not to embarass my son but wanted the kids involved to take personal responsibility for the disappearing new sneakers after he lent it to his buddy
same here KT, but I do get distracted
well ill sure be sending the school a bill for replacing his uniform which got all ripped - over $100 worth that i dont have the money to replace
I have cu 6; in 6; mo 6; pi 6; po 6; pu 6 x 2; ti 6 x 2; tr 6 x 3 any others?
I would too kiwi
the other parent should get that bill Kiwi
i only have 9 of the 6s dee, sorry
then maybe they'd do something about their son's behavior, unless they are problematic also
to6
I have 14 of them, i'll list
hi nrkii
hey nrk!
ty
hi muse
hey fran
Hi, nrkii
hello nrkii -- it's late for you!
yes, and I don't know why I'm still up
but it's such a small grid...
small can = nasty
nu6
hope you are able to get things sorted out Kiwi - and would be a good time to create a new set of behavioural rules within school
And I was going to whine about how late is on the west coast... I'll shutup
ty

Congrats Sprite !
Im not getting booted (this time) but this pc game i play has a design competition and it doesn't seem fair that the winner was a designer for another website. This person is great and i download their stuff all the time
can I clue anything before I leave?
not for me thanks Sprite
I'm ok, finished a bit ago myself sprite. I'm off to bed, nite all!!!
Yep 69 odd clues please :P Ta

night cat9x, sweet dreams! And bye all, lol, I'll leave you to it. Have fun :)
bye Sprite - have a great day
Have a good day sprte
Sprite
oh sprite!!
did I miss you?? nooooooooo!!
hi everyone!
Hi Fran, MRP
back for a few minutes, still need 15
hi fran :) hi lynx :)
Hello everyone - back for last 12
too bad i missed cat9
Hi Ursh
hi ursh :)
too bad I missed sprite... I needed her advice on music for babblebooks :(
hi ursh! hi mrp!
hi ursh! hi mrp!
hi lynxxx!
Have had busy few weeks - daughter spent 3 weeks in psych clinic dealing with depression and have had kids a lot - she is home and seems to be doing quite well - says she learnt a lot about dealing with personality issues and life in general
that's good she got help ursh, glad she's doing better.
It is a very worrying thing - this depression - tells me it is 2nd fastest growing disease world wide - i think aids number 1
That's must have been hard/awful for everyone Ursh, I hope that she will be OK from now on
quite a few babblers have talked about their own issues with it. i have two sisters that have gone through it themselves.
It's so hard when the disease isn't 'physical', sufferers don't get the same sympathy or understanding
ursh, i wonder if the increase is partly due to better recognition of the disease.
Ursh i am glad that your daughter got help. Be fudged if our government considers depression an illness when it comes to getting a pension
It has been tough - but she seems to look on the clinic time as a gift - which is true - most of us just live with our issues - she has had a chance to face them head on and deal with them
Ursh my mum knows somethings up but i dont bother her
Fran I think the illness is getting recognition - but i also think the world has become a tough place and kids have too easy a life and then struggle to cope when they go "on their own"
that's true too ursh.
herin - no government help here - this clinic cost an arm and a leg - fortunately her hub and his parents and us have agreed to take up the excess which will be left by health insurance (medical aid in SA)
grr my housemate is such a dickhead. I just told him that my boyfriend is asleep and he rings the person that is meant to be her and says 'where F are you, fine F you then more abuse at this guy'. That was so rude
Ursh that is sad. We are struggling with hospital places and care
haven't found a single word, so 15 left will have to wait until tomorrow and the list.
good day or night to everyone! ursh, best of luck to your daughter.
I think its hard too Fran (despite what Sprite said!) 33 still left
bye Fran - sleep well
babble on lynxxx. :-)
RUDE, House mate just got in and screams at someone then snaps at me ' are you watching this?' which i am arrrr. I think i have found the source of my problems
In SA you go private if you want to survive a hospital stay - govt hospitals horrendous
bye! *poof*
Night Fran and tx for listening
Ursh I hope your daughter finds the right path i really do.
nite fran
Tx herin - she seems to be motivated to move on in her life - she trained as nurse and is stopped 10yrs ago and has never been really satisfied with other jobs - so is keen to go back to nursing which is where her heart is
Nuff whingeing - back to grid - tx for support
Grid is annoying me house mate is annoying me and is being rude.
and my cat is licking her butt in my face
I might give this a miss for tonite and finish in the morning - nite all
nite lynxx
how many words are in the grid today please
102
102 cool girl
I am going to give this a miss too as im just sitting here whinging and bitching
thankyou ursh
pact
ok back to start the grid :) is it worth starting?

I still can't believe the most used noun today "blog" isn't in this dictionary
Yep Bichon i was thinking the same thing
ne8

Ne is alluding me still.
what happened to the 'wedding romance' ?
it was very very comfy, but i don't think there were sparks
that's her
she's amazing
thanks, gramma
and beautiful...
yw
and met the most charming version of me :)
but i don't think she was interested
ne + 2 pt vowel ....
well?? what you waiting for?? go for it.... comfortable leads to amazing!!
I kinda thought that's how it would start but what about the rest of it.?
Mr p, for some reason your flag isn't coming up on my screen, but when I mouse over it, Mauritius comes up -- but the box is blank. ?
next, add the prefix for three and then the opp of yes, gramma
yeah - i dunno... i don't think she was interested... so... on a less busy week i'll see if she wants to do something.
gramma, think of prefix for 3
oh tragic! make time darling!
her week is busy...lol... i love you for ignoring that i think she isn't interested
yes ch12, I wish I was there LOL!! I must go change it...
Got it.
she's got people in from puerto rico
good to know, mrp -- thought it was my system.
I am going to barbados next :)
i wanna go to barbados
oooh - i need to nap i think...

Merk's clues of the day: esp later in the alphabet there are lots of comparatives ending in 'ier' and there are quite a few -nch words as well. Take for what it's worth.
ty, merk!
phantom: outfit
mr. p, what's up?
my clue giving is unforgivable at times :)
how you going owl ??
s'ok....i am well!
oh wonderful! glad things are good for you *kisses*
we had needed rain overnight and sun is beginning to break through....aw, mrp! and i reverse cleaned my house!
owl sent me a lovely card! I have it next to my bed... thanks for your caring sweetie
how do you reverse clean a house?
I know how my kids reverse clean a house!
teehee
ah, i was hoping you would ask. that's when someone is coming over and you have to clean quickly, so you stuff things sway. then you take them out little by little and either file them , pay them, throw them out or give to charity. *blushes*
daniel always reverse cleans my house. now i need to forward clean.
i suddenly have a desire to be rid of things but i am destined to be a lady with a house full of string and newspaper...and 20 cats.
Hmmm... When I stuff things out of sight for guests they either get put away properly at the time... or they get lost forever.
oh owl! I do that all the time! (well, lickety does)
LOL owl!
hi feather!!
hi mrp and everyone!
ooh, my favorite particle is in the grid
hi feather.. little one feeling better, today, I hope?
my mom's coming up in about 10 minutes, so i won't be here long
hi feather! well i must sway, sun just came out and i want to go go go - must not waste burst of energy.
how you holding up darling?? baby sleeping well?
have a great day owl!!
for the most part, yes. except this morning he decided 4am was a good time to do bicycle exercises and grunt and squirm for an hour. (i think he needed to fill the diaper actually!)
bye, TO... and howdy Hurshy!

how have i lived this long without knowing nu5.16 refers to the nape of the neck? h'mmm

I would love your fireworks video input! all of you please! send me your favourite youtube video so we can include it soon
Yesterday's video was funny, but I didn't care for the two women's discussion the day before.
and, I have made babblebooks really easy to add to. do you guys listen to it??
name that proper noun! pioneering african-american actor
Babble books? How do you get to them?
good idea, mrp.. no, I confess i don't listen to the babblebooks.. right now is particularly busy time. Will keep in mind tho
yes merk, some people liked it, some didn't... all in fun and not to be taken seriously
Portier?
Potier
Poitiour?
Whatever!
poitier
I realize that and we have to have something for everyone. How have you been, by the way?
:)
No wonder I couldn't quite make it in the grid!
(in the game "name that proper noun!" the nouns can be found in the grid)
go to babblebooks.podbean.com you can listen to casts directly from the site! and if you wish to participate, there are a couple of good options I have included in the page "how to add a chapter". Please enjoy this site... it is for you all
and change the second vowel, turn down your mouth, and you have an actual word
But if said actor were sticking out his lower lipe in grouchiness, that word counts!

prezzieee babeeeee!
nuttie darling 11
there you are! thought i scared you off!
what the hick you doing up so early!!! ???
whatchoo talking about? its 10 am?
here is the joke!! After three weeks in the Garden of Eden, God came to visit Eve. 'So, how is everything going?' inquired God. 'It is all so beautiful, God,' she replied. 'The sunrises and sunsets are breathtaking, the smells, the sights, everything is wonderful, but I have just one problem. It's these breasts you have given me. The middle one pushes the other two out and I am constantly knocking them with my arms, catching them on branches and snagging them on bushes. They're a real pain,' reported Eve.
i know this one i know this one i know this one!!!
And Eve went on to tell God that since many other parts of her body came in pairs, such as her limbs, eyes, ears, etc..........she felt that having only two breasts might leave her body more 'symmetrically balanced'. 'That's a fair point,' replied God, 'but it was my first shot at this, you know. I gave the animals six breasts, so I figured that you needed only half of those, but I see that you are right. I will fix it up right away.' And God reached down, removed the middle breast and tossed it into the bushes.
HI evan
hey gbbbb
Three weeks passed and God once again visited Eve in the Garden of Eden. 'Well, Eve, how is my favorite creation?' 'Just fantastic,' she replied, 'But for one oversight. You see, all the animals are paired off. The ewe has a ram and the cow has her bull. All the animals have a mate except me. I feel so alone.'
God thought for a moment and said, 'you know, Eve, you are right. How could I have overlooked this? You do need a mate and I will immediately create a man from a part of you. Let's see..........where did I put that useless boob?'
Tee hee!
i luv it mrp! my morning's complete!
lol....Nice one MrP........!
glad you like it! :D :D
Good Afternoon All.....
hi flask! :)
you know I can swear [curse] just like the best of them......however, the word I hate most and would never say is in the grid today.....and I was cringing while typing it....<shudder>
it's just a word. words have only the power we give them.
well thats very true Hurshy, I was merely just saying how I feel..........and god afternoon, by the way!
sorry* good....
i know, i just, i want to empower women to not feel like such words have power over them. good afternoon to you. :)
I am pretty liberated, but that word is revolting!! ugghhh!
i'm not happy with today's grid, she said po4/6ing. my puter has blue screen of death and i don't have lickety's beta link on hubby's. :( gotta go e-mail licket again. wahhhhhhh! see y'all later kids.
ni 7 please
more neato
bye mom
bye mom :)
Hurshy who is that in your icon?
barack obama
and he is.......???
senator from illinois, 2008 democratic presidential candidate
i had intended on not making up my mind for several months yet, but then i couldn't help it.
ah I see.......and do you think he can go all the way?
could be. kinda early to tell.
off to look into babblecast ... see ya all and remember to check out the new cast in babblebooks.podbean.com
I'm with you, Hurshy, although I like Edwards also.
Oh MrP....I can seem to get into that properly
sorry MrP...I mean I can't!
barack is so eloquent. i think it's been too long since we've had eloquent statesmen, and i think eloquence in a president is underrated. we need it badly, to inspire us.
flask? why not? it is accessable via the site.... just don't add www at the front
Amen and amen! :-)
I agree, hurshy!
i was worried about the experience question, until he pointed out that cheney and rumsfeld and folks had tons of experience and look where that got us. that what matters more is good judgment.
experience according to dave barry: remember a group of highly experienced professionals built the titanic, but one amateur and his kids built the ark
Oh MrP...am a bit of an idiot when it comes doing things like that!
Barak was in KY a couple of weeks ago for a fund raiser adn I would have loved to have gone, but my schedule and lack of funds prevented me.
hhh
oh, too bad BGL
do they post campaign trip schedules on the web? maybe i should plan ahead if he comes here :)
wvteach....Hi, and I like your comparison!
I would think they would. I saw it in the newspaper the day it was happening... that was our problem.
Hello Everyone
Hiya Peri...how are you?
good morning afternnon evening babblers
Hi lore....
ooops afternoon hi flask
well you can register with your email and zip and they will email you when they are coming to your area.
good today Flask and you?
i love when i can pet all three of my cats at once!
Good day peri and all. I love it when I can greet all my babble friends at once! Beats cats.
:(
Clue for nu6/27, anyone?
hi hetty
latin pl of nu5
nu6/27 is like a Scotsman nuking something
Grant, got the NU 5 before it? Add a vowel
Hi everyone.
pa 5/16 please
but hursh's clue is much more erudite
Hursh--how is Cinder's bald spot?
jeans have a hole? put on a pa5.
i like yours hetty, very amusing
Hurshy's middle name is Erudite.
oh god.. oh did i miss that one
i think it is getting better sc
morning Scrabbler
no, my middle name is Catherine.
Great news, hursh. I could tell that you feared a long battle with fungi.
Oops, thanks for the Latin plural, one and all
hi Scrabbler and loredana
hello greenbay
Loredana--do you give your bunnies any "home-made" snacks or treats? I buy The Oxbow Hay Company Critter Berries, but they are so expensive.
thank you sc, you are so nice.
I am an animal-lover, as you are, Hursh.
i know, but you're still nice.
I try to be a nice and thoughful person, although some people challenge me in life.
no they get enough without them i did get some they were from holland very expensive and they didnt eat them..... people make comments about my hopping kids and what they get to eat
i want to be nice and thoughtful too but i fail rather miserably, i'm so absent-minded.
Scrabbler had the man to measure up for blinds on the quote he has written Animal House consists of rabbits cats birds elephants dragons horses wolves wombats tigers unicorns etc asked him why he put that he said to warn the fitters when they arrived lol
Well, Loredana, I guess I will have to witness my bunnies suffer withdrawal from their treats then.
WOw, loredana, you have dragons? Cool! No wonder you need new blinds, though.
Hmm, Loredana, you raise dragons too? The fire damage must be bad.
lol
are they norwegian ridgebacks? chinese fireballs? hungarian horntails?
critter berries? what are they Scrabbler
Or maybe just komodo. At least those don't burn the drapes.
Is one named Norberta? The females are more aggressive, you know.
Only when they're nesting, Scrabbler.
the rabbits have eaten the drapes and blinds
http://www.oxbowhay.com/Shop/showProdu ct.sp?PRODUCT_NO=78
The rabbit damage in my home is awful, but I tolerate it nevertheless.
the dragons sorry to disappoint everyone are ornamental chinese ones my birth year makes me a dragon.
What can anyone suggest about cu4/9?
cu4/9 - ends with word of possibility
i can suggest there are only 3 ways to achieve those points, and one is less weird than the others
so why do the kids have to have no treats now cant you afford them
Fireballs then, apparently.
Loredana, I order all of my bunny's food (pellets and hays) from Oxbow. Oxbow also makes a product called "Critical Care"--a powdered formaul that is mixed with water and then fed by syringe to sick bunnies. Critical Care saved my old bunny, Peter Rabbit, in 2000.
Vic, I can't follow that trail--there isn't any "po"ending
french animals in the grid today: sheep, flea
I cannot afford any extras for a while, Loredana, and I am looking for ways to cut my expenses.
cu + Not when or whether, but **.
Thanks, Scrab. Now I kniwwhat a word of possibility is.
scrabbler have you fixed up Oliver or is he still on the bench? I give them trees and bushes to chew on they get their dried grass hay and pellets plus their water with apple juice and their salads with vegs and fruit... they eat better than i do
Yes, my bunnies do eat better than I do. They get hays (Sebastian refuses to eat hay though), high-fiber pellets, twice daily salads, some fruits and carrots.
I shall bury Oliver in the pet cemetery today. He is still on the kitchen counter.
I am going to a wake at 2 PM, for a woman I was with at the cancer center on Wednesday, with her parents, when she died. It is so sad, but I feel honored that I was there when she passed on.
that site is very interesting scrabbler making me hungry the papaya and cranberry yummies
The bunnies just love those treats. I also give them the papaya-pineapple ones.
i give my kids a treat they love they get four sultanas a day and bananas once a week
Oxbow is a great company--they grow their own hays and make the pellets from their hay. I sent them a testimonial about saving Peter Rabbit and they published it.
could i get clues for re6 and ti 6/24?
What are sultanas?
raisins!
ti6/24 = give a grauity to a feline (You will like this one!)
dried grapes not currants not raisins but sultanas
lol, that is good word :) lol
*I meant gratuity, as you guessed
oh i found the re. all done.
not got there yet Hurshy......
well done!
ti6 please
I don't have re6. I have hit a wall with 34 to go, and no list yet.
Wow! Great work, Hursh!
ty. re6 alt sp of re5. re5 like soviet dictator.
congrats hurshy well done
ti6 more small
ti6 person who makes things out of a certain metal (Sn)
and the one sc just clued me.
I have 3 ti6's, Peri. #1=smaller, #2=person that makes metal cans, and #3=give a gratuity to a feline
TY for re6, Hursh
thanks hursh had that one
pu 8 please
Thanks Scrabbler, great clue and neat word
pu8 rhymes with mu8 armament (not in grid)
and has to do with retribution.
ty
i've heard of cow-tipping ... lol
I figured out pu8---TY!
Haha, Hursh
HArder to do with felines, since they always land on their feet.
Fireworks
OK, help with the Q's, please. I have to joke and to stop.
Yippeee Merk!
qu8 - stop paying lease
woopee merk
qu5/20 add what a kid says when something smells bad
i mean add a vowel and THEN add the other bit
TY for qu8 and qu5--weird ones!!
qu5 singular of an english game - i think lawn game
qu5 - an old game "The king and the queen were quirling at qu5's"
op is a fish
op 4 = op + vowel and cons
Vicuna, is your qu5 the same one the Hursh clued?
i clued two, the five 20 first, and then the same as vi
Yes, Scrabbler. We've clued the remaining 3 now.
ty and take courage, the last half of the alphabet was easier than the first half.
ah, tails.
I am always a brave little Babbler, Merk!
It ends with a gender neutral pronoun.
whereas i am often a babbler full of en5
OK, I figured out the other qu5--TY!
I just checked my ranking and wow ... one more grid and I'll hit a million on the village elders.
Congrats, Merk.
And TY for the en5 clue, Hursh
fireworks
It comes slowly for me because when I travel or am in China, there are many days I can't do a grid.
Maybe see you tomorrow.
Yahoooo Peri!
Bye, Merk.
tata
Bye, Merk.
thanks Scrabbler, need to change cat litter, see you all tomorrow
well done peri!!!
bye peri
peri needs a cat genie.
Peri needs a housecleaner, as do I.
cat genie better.
i <3 cat genie.
OK, I just read about the Cat Genie--quite a system!!
yes indeedy. i have had mine for about a year now.
Next, help with M's. I have mo4/6, mo5/18 and mo5/14.
i said there was french sheep in the grid
mo6/24 - French sheep
you must have missed it
Ooh, I monkeyed it, TY
mo4/6 a little pout, i think? sounding like a cat noise.
I never studied French. German x 7yrs, and Italian x 1.
oops i forgot po4 was also a word
too tired i am off to bed good night everyone see you all tomorrow... enjoy your day Scrabbler and take care bye
Bye, Loredana. It is always nice to see another Rabbit Lady.
I need help with my last M word. Are their 2 mo4/6's?
yes i just clued the...
oh you might have thought i meant the first one
Cat noise...help.
i meant the second one. you do it with your mouth only.
vowelly.
So, M + 3 vowels?
2nd mo4/6....take the cute little house pest and remove last consonant
yes
TY, wvteach. So, Hursh, is that the French flea?
no
pu4/7 flea
I watched "Night at the Museum" this AM. Not an outstanding movie, but cute and entertaining.
clues please for the 2 x mo5 words?
to climb a .....tain
I found pu4/7. Ty, Hursh.
hi Joanne!
ty joanne!
hi scrabs
yvw flask hi all
mo5 #2 = get on a horse, #1= rhymes with what a kangaroo has (po5)
sc didn't you read little prince to know sheep?
thanks Scrabbler!
I have never read most classics, sorry to say. Even in high school I read Monarch Notes (like Cliff Notes and Spark Notes). I have a math/science, concrete brain.
how many words are there today?
having hard time with pu8 please helppppppp
102 words
ty
cu6/24 please?
Soldiers use am******. Now replace the M with a P.
Puncta is not accepted---an anatomical term.
ty scrabs
Sorry, stupid clue---replace amm with P
cu6/24 is (literally) a fish, starts like "I have a ----ing plan" ends like comparative
comparative??
comparative. One thing is more so than another.

You're welcome.

gramma, I'm on am Mac and (unless it's changed in the past month or so) he isn't going to update the Mac versions that far.

At least I can hand-add with the bulk, so that's better than nothing.

ip7 - Latin name for moring glories, ip + mantra word + slew of vowels
Mary - can you clue me the ep word plz as I haven't got that one yet.
ep + to perforn in movies
thanks mary
ip sounds a bit like the song girl from ip - ip+Vowel +double hook letter +3 vowels
Hi all. 13 to go....this is a tricky grid. I need the other U. I have un4, meaning a group.
HI all
Scrabbler: to take the lid off
Hi Peri

bottle top and vowel
ca 4 0r 5 scrab
I found it! Latin word.
ca5/16 was my missing C. Ty for the nudge.
just stopped by to say hi, am taking my niece out for late lunch/early dinner. see you later or tomorrow
byeeee
I have 7 in's, 1 ip. Someone mentioned an it5 earlier but I didn't get the clue.
Bye Periwinkle, have fun.
no it's in this grid
no it, but 8 in's
I decided to lessen the misery for me and you, so I opened the list. I need in8.
Deeha - what do you mean by a double hook letter plz.
hi all
in + long ditch
in + a open ditch
Aha, TY!
Hi Doren!
r is hook letter, not j as yuo'd think
so what is a double hook letter?
en5 anyone please
I found an elusive Hawaiian goose, and it was right in front of me!!
double hook = two r's
en5, crippling sence of dispaire
en + **clear power + vowel
anyone have a clue for the ne6?
en + Greek letter after mu, + 3rd vowel ====stupid clue, but decipherable
oh I am soooo frustrated with that ip word. Just can't seem to get it. There aren't 2 r's in the grid.
sorry i meant ne8/45
ne6?
ah
ne8==subatomic particle
ty scrab
ne8, sub atomic particle
ip8= ip + a portent is an **en + 3 vowels in reverse alphabetical order
ty joso
Oh scrabbler I love you dearly. Ty.
ip7, ip + round vowel + larry curly and ***, + house frame vowel
how come they don't allow outie and innie, anyone with a belly button realizes that these are words
I love you too, Sandie.
Yes, Bubba, we all tried those words and got rejected.
nu 8 please
I think it's odd they don't recognize the internet
nu8, dietetions are concerned with the ********s in food
food that is good for you scrabbler...has plenty of nu******s
TY, joso and Doren!
Is pu 7 related to the pu6 before it?
Scrabbler, Augenmann's grandson iis suffreing a severe hearing loss (age 3), that is all I know. What are chances of a successful operation?
Aha, I monkeyed it.
except that ne8 sounds like an Italian ending
care to clue it?
If it is simply middle ear fluid then draining it out (with or without tube insertion) will solve it quickly.
pu7=comparative form of pu6 sort of
ty scrabs
So, Inge, the outcome depends upon the cause.
pu7, more pu3, like pu6 but double letter
pu5,14 please
must be more severe, he is going to a pediatric neurologist in two weeks
pu+ 2000 lbs
And Monkey came through again!!
pu + gret weight
pu5, don clothes, pu***

Yes, my monkey is performing well today. I must reward my monkey with chocolate later, LOL.
And uno for me....I cannot ask for a clue. tr6/21
and the monkey gets chocolate via you, right.
Yes, Joso!
nice system you have there
tr6/21 3 + 1, latin
Done---TY all for clues!
YAY scrabbler
Funny Aussie TV commercial is the video.
congrats Scrab
qu8 please
qu8 is to stop + lease
Compound word = stop paying monthly payment for one's aprtment
But Mary said it in a concise, intelligent manner.
Thanks, but that's not a real word!

hi babblers all ! - tough grid and 40 words to go...
in 5/10 means non-reactive or doesn't move (for the first one)

The ni 7/40 word is more neat and a ti5/12 is ti*man from Oz and a abbreciation for a New England state.
Nef.....am not geeting those at all!
sorry..;-(
in 5/10 is in + vowel plus hook letter plus cross letter
the in***ear is where fluid builds up!

Hello to my fellow babblers! How is everybody today?
By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! YAY!
enjoy your dinner Jell, see you later
hi min
never heard of it, mel. i think that is the dumbest one today. lol
Yes tim but I dont think a feline would be very happy if you did that to them, perhaps the term came from people trying to see if they would land on 4 legs? LOL
i heard they do that to cows !!?? what a stupid sport !
a game in which a short piece of wood, tapered at both ends, is struck lightly at one end with a bat, causing the wood to spring into the air so that it can be batted for a distance.
ni 7, plz? trying to watch the longhorns. don't want to monkey
sounds like a dangerous game to me!
more spiffier perhaps?
or one might say that is really ni** then more of that
The ni 7/40 word means to be more neat eieios.
thx, mel

Tim how are you have not seen you about for a while
is anyone here or do i smell
still here, just watching the game
I am here off and on now.I was just preparing a salad
i am alright herin i have been working alot and i haven't felt much like chatting
All I can smell is my hubby's cigarettes. I would much rather smell you herinfernallady!Anything but smoke!
ok
Eww yer my boy DOES NOT smoke in the house
nothing physically wrong just a bit down
hugs the tim
thanks herin:)
He does not smoke in the house either.It comes into the windows though and I hate it.Wish he would quit!
Sorry to hear you have been feeling down timhorton!
I had to ask as it seems that since i made mention of my potential new job (in the adult industry as a manager) people have been a tad indifferent
Babble always cheers me up whenever I'm feeling low.
MIn tell him to smoke down the back of the yard
thanks min I don't really have a good excuse for feeling that way so it is hard to discuss it feels like you are whinning
herin i hadn't heard that
Tim im getting fat from all the cheese im eating with my whine.
i think times are hard you have to take what you can herin as long as you are happy
I just dont see it as a big deal, its not like im doing anything illegal. Also you tell me how else am i going to get a start in the work place when i have a 2 year gap in my resume from being mental
no one has the right to judge you herin
Any hoot,everything at home is good, i have a wonderful new kitty to play with
till they walk a day in your shoes
i like ppl who are upfront and you seem to be herin
I am upfront. I don't lie about things. Really bad at lying
min i have been babbling when i get a chance just not chatting
it does help to take your mind off things
At least your here Tim i hadnt seen you for a bit
i just concentrated on the puzzle
wanted to say hello but didn't know what i's say after that
Yep Hello covers it
I have just been told to stop drooling on the TGI Friday American site as i cant have it
why can't you herin
Cause the Australian TGIs is different
:(
well they'll cath up i.m sure
Its a Franchise thing over here. Im trying madly to get them to serve plunger coffee for brunch on sundays
we don't have it here but it isn't far
One thing i do like that you guys dont have and that is chocolate turtle
we don't have it here but it is close
sorry
i thought that text didn't enter
Meh. The reason im looking at the american site is for ideas
i am such a stooge
Dont be too harsh on your self i have done that many times
I am trying (in vain) to find an Avon colour from America to aus
:)
i don't know much about avon anymore
i have dealt with professial makeup for about 25 yrs
I am starting not to like Avon as the Australian stuff is getting more about products than make up
one thing that impressed me about avon was they were one of the first companies to get on the breast cancer band wagon now they all are
I love Avon products but the Australian stuff is small in selection. That and they stopped making my face stuff
i used to uise skin so soft as a mosquito repellant low i have a product from gehwol
I have had to swap to an all natural aussie based product. I have gotten a huge rash from the other stuff i was using on my face
have you tried mineral based cosmetics?
i don\t know if they have sorme cosmetics there
most ppl are not sensitive to them
ti5 anyone
like ti***ure of iodine
Its not the cosmetics its the cleaner i was using. Avon cosmetics work.
thank you

ty!
how do know how many words there are to find
just started playing this game
it should say at the bottomm
or at least somwhere on the screen
all i see are minutes left, points, and # of words I have gotten
idk sorry
crpw48, goto angelsong's Babble page at the bottom to read the rules of babble.It is helpful to newcomers
thanks
Hello crpw48!How are you doing?Welcome to the grid
right under the word list should be your word stats that tells you how many words are left. to the left of that should tell you how many words total.. there are 102 today
Hi Misosoup! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
Hi TeaNCrackers! How are you? Welcome to the grid!

yeah i actually used too play a lot but i stopped for about a year
thanks for the welcome tho
hi, minver
Aloha Babblers!
hey frannie
yo TnC!
Hi FranMag! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
aloha fran, hi TNC, minver, etc. . .
hi min!
hi melon
hi melon!
melon, today's theme is surrealist paintings, are you going to play today?
i so dislike little ones
grids that is, they make me crazy
well, my little ones make me crazy to, but that's a whole 'nother story!
i find them more difficult than the 300 + ones, don't you TnC?
yes, ma'am
got the ip7 :) - good thing i read the Burpee's catalog
Hello melonheadjujube! How are you?Welcome to grid
i still cannot get that one - saw that clue at flip, too!
wow melon! even if i read the catalog i wouldn't have remembered that one. :-)
ip 7/36 is ip plus vowel plus double hump plus 3 vowels
TnC, ip + vowel + larry, curly and *** + vowel
holy cowmets! thanks!
it's the botanical family of morning glories, just in case you read the same catalog melon did. :-)
thanks!
Is there a rule that you do not ask for clues 'til after an hour after the flip?I thought I read that one time.
it really wasn't clued last night but there were some subtle hints.
fan, i can't remember my sibs 'phone numbers; give me a useless word, & it's like etched in stone :P
min, there is no "rule", but a lot of people like to play without clues in the beginning, so we try not to give spelled out clues until a little while has passed.
some people don't like clues that early, so the rest of us try to respect that
i know what you mean melon! when i was working in a used bookstore i could rattle off book titles and authors that i'd never read.
i would love hints for the qu8 & the ne8
qu8, stop and what you pay your landlord
ne8 is a sub-atomic particle
that's a dumb word ;)
ne8 sub atomic particle
tx :)
hi joso!
ne 8/45 is Jimmy Ne***on vowel plus opposite of "yes"
doctor doom makes his return. :-)
hey fran, flip lurking?
OK, halfway & all the 7s & 8s, mediocrity attined! back for the flip. in the meantime SNL - {temporary poof}
hopefully helping with last minute clues joso. :-)
how about the en 5?
later melon!
Doctor Doom always returns, part of his charm, hwaahahahahaha
TnC, french word, feeling of malaise or boredom
en 5/12 is e plus double consonant plus 2 vowels TeaN
thank you both - slaps self on forehead
oh, thought! can anyone recommend a good website for revivng my bridge skills? maybe one with nice chat? There was an article about bridge in this weeks New Yorker that reminded me of how much I like the game - but it's been years - maybe a decade or two.
Goodbye melonheadjujube!I'll see you soon @ the flip!
melon, you'll have to ask jilli and/or flosey, they're the bridge players.
tx - will do - back @ flip.
ok, in 6 and in 8? please

in6, in + fork prong
in8, to put yourself into a hole made for soldiers to fight from

I am doing well at the moment thank you just getting prepared for my Bible College exams on Tuesday Night
I am petrified

Yes, and I have been up since 6:00. I am VERY tired!
Exams can be nerve racking
18 . .
Min only 11 minutes left I have another 12 months to go yet nothing will happen but I dont want to muck this one up
go go T&C, down to the wire
oh min, that's crazy! (the 6:00 am thing, not the staying up thing)
need 1 more 8, have in, nu, pu, qu, what am I missing?
can I get a clue for both qu 5s? please
ne8 doxy, a sub-atomic particle
qu5, Sailors game played with rope rings of the same name
qu 5/20 - add vowel at end to to qu 4/8
TnC, for one of them, take the qu4/7 and stick an O right in the middle.
hi OHJ!
thank you both
Hi Fran
or all
doxy, ne8, ne**ral means neither positive nor negative + ****, nevada with a different middle vowel.
Hi oldhousejunky! How are you? Welcome to the grid!
how about re 5
Hi Min - usually around earlier in the day; however, not much chatting
re + ***e comes before ten
re 5/10 is re + single hump plus opposite of out TeaN.
re5 re + ***e, 9
double the middle consonant for the re6
thanks fran, got it
cool doxy!
I won't finish this one. still have 61 to go
doy, thank you! 11 left
I am NEVER up at 6:00 on Saturday.I was babysitting my niece and nephew and they had me up really early
