Jellen
hi sprite
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leet
no game is guilty of child neglect. People are.
you cannot blame a game for an idiot, that person had an addictive personality and the child would have suffered had it been drugs, gambling, alcohol, or whatever, The blame lies with the parents not a game
Thanks for the translation, Ornith
Hi sprite {poof}
rofl Dcs
I agree i was just pissed off that once again its ' the tv/the music or a pc' that was to blame

did you guys hear about this dutch lady who had not participated in the lottery with the rest of her street? And when her street was the winning one, she sued the lottery for not offering her the same as the participants got?
lady: a bit fluey, but otherwise reasonably ok.
What that is stupid
you have got to be kidding, LOL now that takes the cake and the ice cream too!
you mean you regret having enlisted our help, meliae??? :P
that is way beyond stupid. She lost, thank God.
never! I would never do that
I need to find a new word game to play
*hugs meliae* Just teasing, just teasing!
that's like the robber who got locked into the garage he was rifling and sued for mental anguish -- or something like that.
not that I would stop playing babble but one to play when I have finished here
exactly, lol, jilli. Those people are unbelievable.
or the lady who sued mcdonalds when she got burned by her coffee
meliae, have you tried QuotePuzzler?
If you saw a kid that looked like Maddy McKan (bad spelling sorry) wouldn't you say something to the person that had that kid?
no Ihave never heard of that one
www.quote-puzzler.com

ohhhhhh there it is. And I DID have the second part already
rolin... I am really really sorry... don't cry please... I promise I will never be so mean to you again!

yup, the laughing fence. After a long time of not popping up. Glad to see it back.
missing an H Rolin?
the laughing fence
it obviously means something in cat
perhaps it means "I am the real cat of glory"
Were you receiving feline assistance, Ata?
missing 3 lynxx..the first 4/8 would help...
I think it means: why are your fingers on this keyboard and not on me?
oh yes. my laptop is on her route between her basket and the sofa. it gets frequently used as a stepping stone
oooh..i know what you mean...i had never seen one til i came to this country..they are amazing

I will be happy to include your hubby in my prayers, sprite!
Of course! will he find out straight away Sprite? or are we all going to be in suspense for a week or so?
we are going to be in suspence, I fear. But they invited him for this interview the day after he emailed his application, so who knows...
got it all crossed sprite. How long is this interview gonna be, cos I dont want to uncross it all at the wrong moment... If more than half an hour Ill go pee and lay off the coffee
i shall say all my spells and incantations...
:D granadan! I think it won't take more than half an hour, 45 minutes tops.
Maybe they'll love him as much as you do Sprite (in a different way!) and snatch him up - here's hoping
Good luck to Sprite's hubby. I see my cat is in the grid SO4/6 !!
Hi Liz!
Hi, liz
they should, lynxxx! He is just perfect for the job, has all the papers AND the experience. He even cut off his long hair for the interview, poor dear.
well ppl..i have been invited to wii...so i shall.... ill see you all later...
ooo lets play guess the name of liz's cat!
hi liz, and thanks :)
bye Rolin
Bye, rolin
lol ata - its deaf and white - not that I raced to her bio or anything lol
lol nor did I gran
bye rolin!
Liz is it named after a bar ofb ubbly stuff or shall I keep looking?
bye rolin
thats so4/5
got it lol
Hi all, I'm en route to bed so just passing through. My husband calls the cat Soppy...if that's any help. No not the bubbly one, but a girl's name .
got it too :)
Im intrigued - why name it if its deaf lmao? It could be unique like Prince and be a symbol..
Goodbye, all. Need to attend to critter needs.
bye Jellen :)
bye jellen
bye jell!
because one wants to talk ABOUT it, gran, even if you cannot talk AT it :)
lols - I forget, my other half is no interest oin the beasts so names are purely for mine and their benefit.
so4.5bar would be a nice compound
I wonder, granadan... if you had a deaf kid, wouldn't you name him or her either?
I had 150 cavies, and he called every one either Puck or Fig - I think that was right anyway.
True Gran, but I think she would think it disrespegtful of her household position if she didn't have a title, though Dictator might be more fitting>
LOL Gran !!
150 cavies!! all at one time?
LOL sprite - Ive got one child who doesnt know what day of the week it is, let alone his name Hes called Alfie, otherwise known as Alfiepants
Yep lyn.
ah, but you DID name him. I think a cat deserves the same courtesy :)
sprite chill, it was a joke, possibly in poor taste
you can guarantee that to cats we all have one collective name "staff"
I thought we were all "Hey you"' to them?
to my dogs I am "'er wot brings grub and walkies"
Correct, Gran. She has Prime Servant (me) and deputy servant (husband)
lol yes that sounds familiar
I love that about cats. That air of granting us the right to feed and cuddle them.
Anyway, enough frivolity..I'm off to bed. BBL
night liz, sleep well!
night, or mornin then Liz
night liz!
Never sure which it is, Gran. But it'll become clearer with a glass of wine in my hand tonight, I'm sure !!
I'll join you! Nice spot of hite zinfandel..
drinking before 9am. what is the world coming to :)
Rioja for me, please. 'night all.
it is always before some 9 am... can't be bothered ;)
If I had a bottle in it ould improve nicely!
23 to go and eveyone hiding
not hiding, just searching for my last 7!
no I mean the words are hiding from me. rotten so**
LOL :) Still looking for the kitty name?
I bet she was named after Ms Loren
or think second year students.
no, got that one, I meant rotten sods but was trying to be polite :)
awwwww! We are more used to clues than to pc-ness, it seems ;)
its the ha4, 6 pair I cant find
errr... which pair, gran? I have 4 of them in a row but no pairs.
the middle two
the LAUGHING scottish fence?
got the fence, now just go the 2nd ha4,6 , so just need the third
the fence is the first one, lynxxx. Then the plural of what you say when you find them with the hand in the cookie's box. Then damage. And you have the musical instrument, that is the last.
you wil come to no ha4.6
damae - got it TYTYTY!
yw :)
how did I miss that?
because you are totally ha4less?
most of the time now for the ops
interview starts :D
crossin it now sprite - what is he after?
BBL got to go and help support my local vet
good luck lynxxx
gran: he'd be advicing building companies on how to train their employees. Learning on the job, studies and courses, etc.
sounds good
his current job is similar, but with school dropouts, ex criminal and/or ex addicted people. Has done it for years. He is really ready for a more motivated group of people.
Oh hell, alf has been tryin to eat my hair and has a mouthful of dairylea..... bath time imminent for both of us
eeeks gran!
its probably a good hair conditioner
lol - someone told me that about raw egg once and forgot to suggest I DIDNT use hot water to rinse with
omg gran... YUCK!
could be worse, with alf you just never know what he has in his hanmds.... its like Xmas - something different behind every door on the calendar
LOL ... omg ...
Ata, I love your icon! lmao!
*grin*
its kept me amused for several days now
it is wonderful!
a perfect example of how people can think of one thing at a time, but not see the overall picture.
yup!
the BBC website had a big article a few days ago of funny / strange signs, and that one just made me howl with laughter
fireworks
wd sprite!
yayyy!
nice and easy grid, but still interesting :)
any clues on the rh please?
easy apart from my last 11 words ;)
do you have the ra5/14 above it, gran?
no thats another one Im missing
if you do, just add the h. if not: r + I hope no mis*** befalls you + male.
thanks for the rh clue, sprite!
yw :) and drop the h for the ra5/14 ;)
clue for ri?
ri: what is on gravestones: R.I.*. + a music style
yeah, perfect! fireworks!
did you find the rh, gran?
wtg Brookie!
Sorry, just got it, phonerang and then Alfie had pinched the computer and was hypnotised by the swirls on the music player screen
lol gran :) Lovely kid
sh5,12 and sh4,9 have me stumped too
yeah - lurvely - I typed that and he as up to his wrists in zaks potty. he is the love of my life, but is very unique
sh4/9 Bernard Sh**
got them both TY!
quite a handful :)
good!
1st and 3rd so4,4 s?
got the first - why is it I hunt for ages, then ask on here and find them straight after?
1st so 4,4 - how a bird travels through the sky
Jonathan Livingston Seagull does not fly, he so**s
3rd so 4,4 - anagram of the 1st one
sorry, its the 2nd one I need now
s + fauna and fl***
s + can you come on the ph***
TY!
2nd so - s + # after zero
I love the different clues!
sprite, your clues are much better than mine!
no, they are not! Just different!
:-)
how many p7s are there?
none
sorry, p6s. duh.
3
I counted 3
should be correct then :)
hmmm. where oh where is my last 6 letter word la la la
Good morning/evening all.
hello
hi everyone :)
hey Haz *hug* How are you?
Fireworks! A billion TYs for all the help
wtg gran!!!
hey mrP *hug too*
hi mr.p and yeah gran
I reckon half these fireworks should be yours sprite lol
Hello mrpresident!
hi mr p
Helo sprite - I'm well, thank you.
nah, absolutely not. We all take help every now and then and that does not take away any of the achievements!
(((hugs))) all round :))
well, ten mins in case anyone needs any clues then Im oing off to see if I can get alf to count to four today
good Haz :)
sprite, i am going to put babblebooks up tomorrow, when lickety is home to fix my computer problems LOL!!
gm e1....
hi gale :)
ce4?
Good morning galeystarr.
very thin pancake, minus the hook letter
hi galey
ce+ **nny for your thouhts
wooot mrP, very good idea! Just take your time, we are in no hurry.
oh sprite, I started up a babblebites cookbook
mrP!!!!!! An excellent idea! Be sure to tell Kiwi!
it is in babanon, all the info, anyone can login and add a recipe :)
Thank you :)
now if I can find anyone to get me the right syrup and dulche de leche, I can finally make the icecream I promised the kids :D
I can't speak on skype with any of my darling friends cause I have no mic... :(( but at least I can type in the chog
totally lovely, mrP. I love recipes. Not that I like the daily cooking, but I do love making special things.
Try shouting really loud, mrpresident. It's what English people do when they're talking to foreigners.
poor mrP :( Don't type too much, darling? Take care of the arm?
LOL Haz!
the arm is a liability!!! need to chop it off! but luckily, my kids need it to give them big hugs :)
LOL Haz... and some dutch people too! I heard a man yell: aardappels. AARDappels! AAAARDAPPELS!!!! to a Frenchman. Did not help :)
you stop that right now and start loving that arm, mrP! How is it to heal if you make it feel unwanted!
I don't know whether it's borne out of frustration or the deeply held belief that people are just pretending not to understand.
oh, the arm gets all the sympathy!! poor arm... oh the arm is so poorly!! give the arm a break!! LOL
well, it got it's break alright!
I have no idea. It is pretty strange behaviour, lol.
tsk tsk tsk mrP! Look at it the other way: see what it is doing for you! How incredibly hard it has to work to heal. And how much you can already do with it again. And my sympathy is for you and you know it :P
that is why I love you so sprite :D... thank you!
I should get rid of my sourpuss... will go find a nice comforting pic of my dog.
NO, do NOT give the arm a break! but do give it a rest.. hi everyone! mrp, I tried to tell Lickety something but I think he had already "left the building" the other day... I want to thank him again for his Beta version because I figured out how to Babble offline so that I can quickly enter words when I get to a connection (a huge advantage when traveling)... so three cheers again for Lickety.. and to you too for creating Babble Bites and Babble Books.
awwww, thanks aloy!! I will copy this and send it to him now! he will get it :D
love you right back, hun!
thanks so much, mrp!
*takes bow too*
Has Atalante taken her bow yet? Did I miss her fireworks? Atalante?
nope, she is around, just busy. And not totally finished yet.
congrats, sprite!!
I'm here!
I've been sitting her doing a quiet drum roll for ages. Hands beginning to get tired....
lol Aloy... I finished some time ago. I take a bow for inventing babblebooks!
yay sprite!!! belated fireworks congrats!
Ah, you're still there, thought I was going to have to shout loudly.
hi ata and haz!!
Well, mrpresident, what's new? How are the children?
nope! though I have a pestering little hound ... I might not be here for long
OH... definitely, sprite! ( tossing lovely bouquets your way as crowd wildly cheers).. (-:
Show her the picture of the explosive dogs and tell her she'll be sold into slavery if she doesn't leave you alone...
thanks Aloy :D Now I feel adequately valued again :)
ha ha good idea!
And Atalante, you know the thing Hobbit does - getting into the crook of your arm? I watched Spangle doing it last night with my sister-in-law. It was so funny.
good idea? Scaring that poor dog into submission? Cruel!
children are divine! Maddison is at a choir concert tonight... the whole of the state is singing at the Sydney Town Hall... I miss out thou Luke is here... he had to study for his english spelling test tonight... the little bugger stunned me! He knows every single word... all 300 that are to be tested!! I am a lucky lucky girl to have such talented kids :D
woooot mrP, you must be so proud!
Good for Luke! And what a pity to miss Maddison.
its sooooo funny! so annoying, but you can't help but laugh!
oh sprite, of all the things in the world, by far the kids are the best thing ever... I just want them to stop growing NOW and stay my darling babies
I know. Spangle absolutely adores here - she heard her car arrive and went frantic, then refused to accept anything less than 100% attention.
lickety will video the concert for us... so I won't cry too much
but Maddison gets to tell you everything about it and she can brag all she wants :) That is a good thing, even if you have to miss her perform.
mrpresident, I know the feeling. You want to kind of keep them preserved at a happy stage. But they'll be going on to even greater things, so you have to let them.
mrP! You can't be serious... they will be wonderful teenagers and brilliant and decent adults... you will love them just as much and enjoy them even more!
awwwwww and spaniels get *so* wriggly and manic when desperate for attention
oh darn. I have to be off to physiotherapy and after that to pick up my meds... and I just don't want to leave!
oh and sprite, she spend most of the day in excrutiating pain! she has been lying down for most of practice with an awful earache... one of the mums called me to ask if they could give her medication (I said yes please!) and she is fine now to go on and perform
I'm her! I'm here. Love me! Love me! Look at me! I'm here!
(That was Spangle, not me, I'm not nearly so needy!)
thats the one! wiggle WIGGLE!
I am going to make it impossible for them to leave home... I will lavish them with all the luxuries they can
can't get anywhere else!!
and they'll still want to leave
ok ok ok, I know that doesn't work, but I can dream!
I'm picturing the scene - two enormously fat 30 year olds being waited on hand and foot.
owwww mrP, poor kid! And thank God for other nice mums!
No, better teach them how to fly and they'll return to the nest.
LOL haz! with our genetics, no fat in sight... but definitely 30 before they leave!
YAY Haz! *seconds that with all of her heart*
and now I MUST go... sorry to leave this company. But appointment calls.
though mum tried that, and I think I've been home twice in the last 8 years LOL
bye darling sprite! have a good appointment... come back more healed!
Have a good day, sprite.
Love to you all and count your blessings... when I count mine you are one of them :)
see you next time, sprite..
Bye sprite :)
I guess I should start the grid... :B
Or, you could just talk to us.
oh, I am putting a new odd spot up on the clues page, if anyone has an odd thing to suggest, please let me know... ie. 6 year olds laugh 300 times a day
haz, I love talking to you! I have to refresh to see my pup.
And seven year olds?
ok, dog is doing the Head Thing. back in a bit!
and 9 year olds say 'duh' about 200 times a day when you tell them something of interest they might like to know
I'll click on your profile to see your pup. Looking very contented, I must say!
You mean some poor soul had to follow children around recording their every sound? That has to rank as one of the less desirable jobs.
yes, dirty job indeed
I wonder what qualifications are needed? Shorthand? Enormous reserves of patience? The ability to tell 300 jokes a day to make six year olds laugh?
And bye for now, Atalante! (She's probably half-way to the beach by now)
lucky girl
Yes - although the beach will be rather more bracing than the sort of beaches you're used to.
six year olds require multiple repeats, sing-a-long alphabet songs and no sugar after 3pm
My daughter is teaching seven/eight year olds. I should get her to take notes on their peculiarities.
luke says: 8 year olds can hit themselves on the head without hurting themselves. they are not afraid to show their undies to anyone. they don't listen to the teacher because they are bored. they pretend to be listening, but they are not hope this helps
The pretending to be listening is a new one. Louise thinks they look as though they're not paying attention but actually ARE.
And as for the not hurting themselves by hitting their heads..... Time will tel!
lol - I luv the undies one! Hi Haz & MRP
oh luke is very good at that... he looks in the other direction, talking and doing everything but work, the teacher yells at him, "Luke! what did I just say?"... and he repeats the last 10 paragraphs she said word for word! He is a smartass
I bet the teacher just loves him! It must be a bit exasperating for her, but that's just Luke being Luke, I suppose.
Hello lynxxx!
Hi lynxx!
Luke is one of a kind! and for some reason, the teachers love him! He certainly thinks outside the box
Teachers can usually tell the difference between a child who is malicious and one who is talented!
I must be going for a bit... see you all later :)
See you, mrpresident.
bye MRP
bye, mrp..
Hi Aloy
hi, lynxxx.. think i got up too early.. eyes are crossing but with only 5 left, I want to finish before going back to sleep
Well, I should trot off now and be productive. Bye for now!
go back to sleep Aloy, it'll be there for your morning cuppa
bye Haz - have a good day
bye, Haz.. see you next time
you are right, lynxxx... can't operate on a dead battery, lol.. see you later.. Happy Babbling..
see you later Aloy...and you'll have the best dreams in the morning
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz (-:
finishing this in the morning - nite anyone who is still around
Hello everyone.
GM Scrab
I was awake during the night too--I couldn't sleep. But I read. Babble would have kept me awake instead of making me sleepy.
hi
Hi Lady
it tends to be addictive doesn't it ?
It is hard to pull myself away if I haven't finished. There is this need to feel accomplished, to find every sneaky hidden word.
can anyone point me in the direction of the 8?
me too !!!
Hi Ishult
Ea
Lynxxx---are you still here to clue?
morning Babblers
GM
Hi Nono
Its an EA 8 you listen with them and talk on one
stupid site just crashed
TY, Lady!! Sometimes I get booted of of the site too, when it is acting up.
I am on lickety. I cant get back to the site and my pc is being grumpy
ty lady!
I am watching brain surgery on the telly its pretty interesting
wow
thanks for the 8 herin, would never have put those two words together!!
neither did i
I was checking e-mail. Brain surgery IS cool!
Its amazing how they dig about getting something out the size of a pinkie nail
G'd morning Babblers!
Hi Lori
A day off, theoretically, and I'm done. Prettye easy. So much for hoping for a 400 word grid. :(
Hey Lori!
Congrats, Lori.
poor Lori, how about a babble grid witgh 400 RE and C words?
I'd even suffer through that herin......
congrats lori
poor Lori you that bored?
Yep. I am on reality avoidance mode today!
listening to these doctors i so have to resist the urge to do the swedish chef
Are you still on vacation Scrabbler, or is that ancient history now?
What is the connection between brain surgery and Swedish cuisine?
Hey nono! Scrabbler! Long time no see.
Um the whole putting things together my brain keeps screaming that swedish chef thing i have no idea. Its actually with the whole surgery thing - the whole this bit goes here kinda like dr nick from the simpsons
Vacation ended Monday at 12:59 PM, waaaaahhhh. It was a great 10 days of no work. And I stayed home and relaxed. My sister drove here. We played SCrabble, did hiking and kayaking, and laughed a LOT.
Good stuff Scrabbler. I'm sad it's over, but glad you managed to recharge the spiritual batteries at least!
So, I am back at work with boss, Richard Head, being an idiot as usual.
He excels at arrogance, control, nitpicking....it is actually amusing to study him from a psychology perspective.
People like that fascinate me. I'm a people watcher. Micromanaging control freaks, generally have .........
Top row and right column are greyed out---whooppeeee.
..........tiny anatomical parts!!! (for men) j/k LOL
Yea Scrabbler! GoGo!
I am also a people watcher. I call myself an observer of human behavior.
Well, he is always grabbing at his parts, maybe to make sure they are still there.
yep. I can entertain myself anywhere, just watching people. I have always loved it.
LOL, further confirmation of my theory....
I have to get ready for work. I shall return late this afternoon. Bye. Enjoy the day.
Hope your day goes smoothly. Have a good one Scrabbler.
bye bye Scrabbler have a great day
Bye Scrabbler
Be back soon as i finish tea
back for abit :)

oh as most times i appear everyone scampers. Hi Pab
hi lady, i think people are finishing the puzzle early because its a little one
no it happens regardless of size
hmm, well i'm still here so i guess you're not the plague :)
so how are you ?
i'm good, and you
have a kitty under my bum as she can't stand to sleep on my lap
well you know cats a very independent types, and they will sleep where they want, no matter how inconvenient for their humans
Yep. she isn't interested in sitting on you
rh 6 please
still looking for that one sorry
rh rhmes with tap for 1st four letters and last 2 letters are **ad,the part of your body on your neck.
this is hard to clue, so here goes, rh + vowel + letter combination that sounds like f + vowel
Kitty has finally unlogged her self from under my butt
Thanks, Pab, would have never monkeyed that word, nor would I ever use that word, Fireworks
Thanks also Lilliann
hi all,by the way.yw.
i monkeyed it, just put letters together that i thought would work
hi lilliann
Hi lilli
just googled it and apparently it is a ridge between two seams.so there you go a bit of useless information to cheer you all up today.not!!!
Apparently its a body seam - one up on Gods joke on the scrotum
i will just have to try to work that into a conversation today
Useless factoid of the day maybe?
Incredibly useful, infernal.
Holds the nuts together?
would seam to.
lol
hello everyone
hi, Annie
hello
I Annie. I know have a pissy kitty bitting my leg as i moved
hello annie and robin.
hi annie and robin
herin, how old is your kitty?
hi Robin
10months we think
Hi robin.
She was found on a road side as a hand sized furball
herin, yes, i remember, was wondering how long it was since she adopted you....
ahh,that,s sad,but atleast she's got a good home now.
Um i dont know when we got her
herin, does she rule the roost?
She is very spoiled. Her last owner dumped her. I think i have had her for about 2months. Yes she rules but she isn't allowed on benches or clawing the furniture and that kind of thing
we have a cat that adopted us about 6 months ago.he use to live at the house behind us and decided he didn't want to live there anymore.
Cats are genetically spoiled and regal.
Fair enough what did his fur parents think (or is that human slaves?)
when my last two cats died i swore i would'nt have anymore but he decided differently.
he knew you needed him lilliann
Well they do that.
they weren't overly bothered and got another one.
that one keeps coming in the garden now.
seems like they may be not be good fur parents
The fluff ball has trashed my black pants they are covered in fur even though i washed them twice
he's a lovely cat.he'll let us pick him up now ans stroke him which he wouldn't before and he likes to go upstairs on the beds,which they said he doesn't do.
oh poor kitty he needed love
Good morning, all. Lady, you can use a fabric softener sheet to de-magnetize the hair from your trousers, and it usually slides off then.
Thanks ill remember that
he got hit by a car a few weeks ago and someone found him in there garden poorly,and took him back to them as they thought it was still theres and they took him to the vet.later that day they came round and said if we wanted to keep him for good then basically we would have to pay the bill.which we did gladly.
:-)
How are you?
Morning Scarlet!!!
Scarlet have you heard from Granny Maxx? Lilli they sound like bad fur parents
I am well, but daughter has been going through Hades lately... abcess in her upper jaw... we're taking her to the doctor this morning for a root canal, and she's in sticker shock over the $2000 cost.... arggh!
Good morning, dear AnnieBrooklyn! *Hugs and smooches*
Owwee thats um expensive
how much!!!!
No, Lady... nothing on Grannymaxxx lately. If you're lurking, Granny, there are tons of hugs from Asheville for you!
Thats right that and for Fran
Scarlet, {{{Hugs}}} Abcesses are so painful and expensive. Bobby had a cyst wrapped around a nerve in his lower jaw and it was $4000. but had to be done as you are doing.
flosey told me the other day that it was cheap at the price... Argggh... she paid more for the root canal some time ago, and her friends go to Mexico (!) for their dental work!
crap. I think my house mate just took $$$ from the house keeping tin
ri6? ra5? rh6?
Mexico thats sounds dodgy
Scarlet, healing vibes heading toward Leigh...
nice housemate herin!!!
Oh, Lilliann... you are a kitty-angel! *Hugs to the animal lovers of the world*
Thank you so much, dear friend, AnnieBrooklyn... I will tell her later... maybe BEFORE she gets the procedure.
thanks scarlet.
Its 'his money' but its not. Hes a fat pig and gives $100 for a fortnight but he eats twice what the boy and i eat. He eats breakfast lunch and dinner. I may eat breakfast/lunch and a small dinner. If he has taken money i will be saying no more
rh6....rhymes with tap and first 2 letters of the part above your neck
oh and he basicly eats 6 meals a day
Oh, poor Bobby, Annie... was he tough through the entire thing? That's a rough one!
toad,ri6,when you tear something and last 3 letters rhyme with tap.
mornin babblers!
Lilian we like the fur mum that you are
Hi Eva
hi eva.
Scarlet, he was wonderful throughout, of course, he was out for the procedure and he healed nicely
how is everyone today?
Good morning, EvaN... is that Tinkerbelle? LOL
fine Evan, and you?
ra5, take out the first h from the rh6
cranky
i'm too soft when it comes to animals.i'd have a house full but my husband won't let me.!
tinkerbell was for yesterdays "bell" theme -- ive changed it for today, so you may need to refresh :)
but anyhoot
What a son, Annie! Of course, that comes from a strong mother, first! :-)
thank you, Scarlet
thanks for the clues. fire works
Okay, Eva... when I refresh, I lose time and data...
Hi, T&T... how are you doing this fine morning?
i also skip refreshing sometimes...heh... you may be able to see my new icon by clicking on my profile...
congrats, toad!
Hi Toad

Oh, Lady... the fabric softener hint works better if you throw the trousers in the dryer to lift the hair, before washing them.
Lilllian cute kitty
You must have a huge heart for animals, lilliann...
how do i play
My housemate really is an idiot. he says that there is nothing that can be done to prevent miscarrage
hi erin.click on help above and it'll explain.
Hi Erin
dont mind me being a tad grumpy.
Good morning, erin... check the links below the Tile Stats, and click on Lickety's Babble Clues... this game is just like Boggle... you can use each tile only once per word, and finding the same word twice from different places in the grid, only counts once.
how long have you be housemates herin?
*Throws some chocolate to grumpy Lady*
That doesnt work Scarlet i have a block next to me
when i'm grumpy i prefer crisps.i don't eat sweets very much.i'm too into my savoury snacks,and they don't help the waistline either!
I have been living here for about 4 months but i used to stay here a lot. I don't have much tolerance as i lived on my own for 4/5 years
*Throws some laughing gas to grumpy Lady*
i dont do drugs but thanks
I think i will be better when i go to be
bed even
*Throws some beautiful, soulful music at grumpy Lady*
yah
*Throws myself off the bridge of running out of ideas*
That AW word is not a word
that's the only problem when you have to share things again with people.i love my mam to bits but when she comes to stop i hate it as she moves things and then starts cleaning.i wouldn't mind but my house isn't dirty.
throws her a bungy rope!!
Oh, rough spot, lilliann... that's a hard spot to keep a tight lip!
LOL... thanks, lilliann...just in the nicka time!
My mum cleaned the kettle when she stayed it was very O.C.D
my mam buys extra cleaning things and i've got a cupboard full.
im bAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaack!!
Hi eva
She's baaaaaaaaaaccccccccckkkkkkkkkkk, the femme Jack Nicholson of Babble!
heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeres johnny!
Ack... I'm locking the door! All work and no play makes Johnny a dull boy..........
Good morning {hugs}
oh thats stupid. If i took a foto that looked like Maddy McKain(sorry bad spelling) I would have said something then and there as the child has distinctive eyes
Hi Mom
Hi Herin
Now that we've done our schtick of The Shining, I must shower and get ready to haul daughter to her root canal... the poor pookie. Hi, and see you later, Mom. *Hugs to you, too!*
ophe
ooops, sorry, Hi Mom!
Hi Scarlet. Take care and best to your daughter
Is that how you spell Oprah in Brooklyn, Annie? LOL
Best of wishes Scarlet
Hi Annie
Thank you so much, Lady.
seems that way, scarlet....my monkeys are out of hand today
hi mom.bye scarlet.see you all later.i 've got some more ironing to do.just love it,not!!
Bye bye Lilliann. I love to iron. I will do it for you
okay, got the op's
LOL, Annie... see yo soon, lilliann... enjoy the ironing.
pleeeaassee!
ok no money taken no one has to die
hope your daughter feels better soon scarlet.lol
**takes the ironing, will return it later today**
*packing all my ironing, dialing UPS and sending to Mom before they take her away*
Thank you for your good wishes, Mom... and, Annie, I will tell L your healing thoughts.. thank you, lilliann.
Hahhahah, Annie... poor Mom... you had to be helpful, heh?
*will return Annie's ironing later today as well*
err i dont do ironing
:) Scarlet
thanks mom,i'll have more for you tomorrow.
kisses to Mom!
oh good :)
kisses back
did you know that if you put your sheets on the line and fold them outside they shouldnt crease
how horrid
Herin, you just have to have a crease, that way you know where the middle is. :)
i can't put anything on the line at the moment as it's raining again!!
well my mum irons the damn sheets
we are finally suppose to get some rain today. I hope so.
I don't iron the sheets but I do iron the pillow cases
So do I, Mom.
my mam use to iron everything.socks pants,tea towels.you name it she ironed it,but she's got better now she's older.
My how horrid was this stupid bint bottled feed her for 3 years at night. Christ knows what she was giving the kid but he lost all his top teeth to rot and had to have a special plate made. I swear some people shouldnt have kids
lol...i hate doing laundry -- ordered a "bed in a bag" set which arrived yesterday and i wanted SO badly to sleep in my new bedding last night, but alas, i must wait until i wash everything first...
nothing worse than sleeping on a wrinkled pillow case lol
also rice startch is good
LOl... see y'all soon!
bye Scarlet
bye Scarlet, good wishes!!!
tonight you can sleep on your new sheets, Eva
Thank you all for your uplifting, funny and sweet ways... *poof*
I just bought How to be Cofy has heaps of hints
no -- havent washed them yet...hah the BF is home today though -- maybe he will get off his duff and wash them for me. :)
now there is a thought
that was How to be Comfy sorry
hey all!
yesterday was his last day of work, so hes got today, tomorrow + friday to sit at home + do nothing. *envious!*
someone i know gave both her daughters bottles up until about five.i think one of them still use one now and they,ve both had teeth taken out because its rotted them.you would have thought she would have learnt with the 1st one,and the dentist told her to stop giving them bottles but she didn't.very irresponsible.
That is what I meant, get them washed today and you can sleep on them tonight. Leave him a sweet note, maybe he will wash them for you. :)
Hi TO
Hi TO
hi Owl...how you feeling?
nothing but what i ask him politely to do, anyway... (and by asking politely, i mean telling him to do...heh)
oh no, Eva, did he lose his job or switching jobs?
hi annie, better ty
Thanks i have to wash my sheets
little of both, mom. his contract ended + he hasnt quite yet signed on with the new job, but hes got 2 "definite possibilities" that just need to get their stuff together... one of those "the job is yours" cases...
oh dear, I hope it works out for him.
I read that you are best to have 3 bed sheet sets
TO, I take it you finally got through to the doctors. So glad you are some better
me too! my job pays well enough to cover us for a while, but i didnt move in with him, just to be the one paying all the bills! heh
don't blame you there.
I live wiht my b/f he pays for everything and i do the house work stuff
My brain is broken. I dont go outside much. I dont like it
sounds nice, herin. only i dont really like cleaning... course, if he could afford to pay for everything, i think i could manage cleaning the house -- since i end up being the only one to do it most of the time anyway! hah
I dont like cleaning but i make sure i do 30 min a day
i did leave him with the "if you get time today, could you..." message...heh
its my nag-less way of nagging...usually he gets whatever it is done, but if he doesnt, it gives me a legitimate reason to nag later. :)
hehe, see if he takes the hint.
See men can be dense and need proper dirrection
besides, you catch a lot more flies with honey then with vinegar
he has these posters that used to be on the wall...we had to take them down to have the place painted, and since im there now, hes not hanging them back up in the bedroom... but right now, theyre just on the floor + i walk all over them... i sweetly encouraged him to pick them up + do something with them. ;)
can you slide them under the bed?
if anyone has the lonely e on the right column, would you please give me the stats for it?
theres a bunch of stuff under the bed already... theres another bedroom thats more "his room" so i recommended he hang them up in there. :)
cant help you there, mom, i dont have it either...
good idea, Eva. You could even hang them for him as a surprise
look dear, what I did just for you. These are just too nice to have laying all over the floor. :)
see, im a "frame it and hang it" kinda gal... hes a "poster putty on the wall" kinda guy...heh
the place looked like a frat house til i moved in. ;)
That E was A LONG TIME AGO
Just popped back after the shower, Mom... it's ea8/50... hearing organ and communication device
lol
night all im going to bed.
thank you Scarlet. <3

:-)
'Bye, Lady. Bye, me.

Hi Hetty, I have finished...I was clueing sha...how are you, my dear?
liz, rh 6....rhymes with tap and the first 2 letters of the thing above your neck
liz ri 6 ----to tear and to knock on the door
TY Annie
I'm just find and dandy, thanks Annie. I love that Bob Hope joke. It pops into my head whenever I hear the word pr***
I'm never supine to argue myself.
Oh Hetty, I dont know the Bob Hope joke, can you share?
sh5/14 the second one
Fireworks !!
ruru,,,sh 5/14, isnt he a sh*** dresser!
nm found it
yay for lizmac
hello all again...pinkhatlil here.... im using cool girls name how goes it???
It's the one I've just referred to--do you know what Cleopatra said to Mark Antony? Answer: "I'm not pr*** to argue".
LOL, that is funny!
pinkhat, why are you usurping coolgirl's name?
rut roh -- do i need to brush up on my history? or am i just dense today? ...i dont get it...
hetty, who is that pretty girl in your icon?
thanks annie.. fireworks !
congrats to ruru!
because she needs help completing the grid...i dont want to play under 'pinkhatlil' because i wont get the chance to complete and my rankings will drop
Annie, it's my youngest daughter, the one in Australia.
pinkhat, what a good friend you are.
Eva, Cleopatra & Mark Antony were lovers, if that helps.
i know hetty...i am lol
how many words today please?? :)
93
Eva, you need a visual image--just picture Cleo lying on her belly on a leopard skin rug--
really??! not many??!
93 susannah
guess its just going over my head...heh... my brain is already on vacation (and the rest of me will be joining it for all of next week!!)
Hetty, are you suggesting po**?
Annie, Mandy just emailed me. She and husband and two daughters will all be here for Christmas.
im logging into pinkhatlil now bbs
hetty, what a wonderful holiday you and hubby will have
you must be very excited, hetty
They want tickets for an ice-hockey match in Vancouver Jan.3, and to be kitted out for the Canadian winter. Such joy.
Eva, if you are pr5,12 to argue, you are likely to argue. However if you are pr5,12 - as in the position - you probably have more fun things in mind.
OH!! i forgot entirely the OTHER meaning! lol...
oooh, are we explaining the birds and the bees today?
The whole fam-dam will be in Victoria over Christmas--4 kids and spouses, eight grandkids, and assorted friends and lovers. 24 for Christmas dinner.
Our eldest daughter will be hostess for the event, and overflow will go to our son's and our granddaughter's two homes, also in Victoria.
not the birds and bees, just reminding the more dense of us about alternate meanings of words. ;)
What a wonderful Christmas!!!
Am I boasting or something? Share my joy, fellow babblers
EvaN, whew, I was beginning to worry
: D
hetty, Not boasting at all! Sharing your happiness..\
Hetty, I hope you have a lovely time.
like i said, my brain went on vacation a little early. ;)
hello again!!!!
It just depends on your tone of voice when typing. Some might type '24 for Christmas dinner' with something approaching despair. You're obviously relishing the thought!
Hi all!! Hetty, Christmas in Victoria would be wonderful. It is one of the most beautiful places I've ever visited.
ra5,14?
Hi there Haz! It will certainly be a Christmas like no other. What will you be doing?
hi haz!
I'll be cooking, hetty, as I have done for the past 25 years.
epah
Hi Haz!
And hello to everyone, by the way!
Hear my tone of voice. Unremitting delight. All the women in our family are great cooks
hello haz!
must escape. girl across the aisle is a loud talker, everyone else goen to lunch, it is echoing
Hello pinkhat!
That's wonderful, hetty, you can all delight each other.
different vowel in front, Owl
later, all! *shoulders to ears in involuntary shudder as volume gets louder* i have become a hermit for usre, loud talking grting on me
So you'll be in good comoany, Haz. Having cooked Christmas dinner for over 50 years I now relish being banned from the kitchen. Your time will come too.
ty annie - i already got that fish ! ; )
Oh hetty, I can't imagine being banned from the kitchen. I'm a bit of a control freak and can only have people in the kitchen if they sit down and don't ask for jobs to do!
later, Owl and I am off too
See you later, TO. I suppose cotton wool in ears would be too obvious?
Haz, when your body has slowed down and your reflexes too and yiou can't see whether it's salt or sugar you will be glad to relinquish control. Besides, my eldest daughter is a control freak too, and it willo be her kitchen
I know - I'll try to give in gracefully when the time comes.
Idon't argue with my Annie. Not even when she's pr***
You're very wise, hetty. Christmas will probably follow its usual pattern here. My sister will stay for a few days, my sister-in-law will be here along with my daughters. I love the family togetherness on Christmas Day. And I especially like it when the presents are opened and I can get the paper into the bin!
Yup indeed. The ole my own mother always played (carefully wrapping and storing used paper, tags etc.)has become mine, and already I can see Annie itching to take over for that too.
that should be "role" oh this arthriti.
I knew what you meant! Sister-in-law would be inclined to keep paper and cards. She has cards dating back years and years. We're not nearly so sentimental and husband especially tends to throw out at the drop of a hat. How I've survived this long, I'll never know.
Now to business. I'm stuck atb the ar5, and have so many ways to go I' dizzy. Please someone, which a should I start with and which direction should I proceed in?
ar5 proceeds in hot fashion from the middle a.
umm "in hot fashion--left or up?
Hot as in fiery fashion - across, looking west.
Thanks. As soon as you wrote it I saw it. Bless youI
ty haz. Hello, all.
You're welcome! Hello dc.
im not getting fiery fashion!!
Fiery fashion reflecting the end result of the act described in ar5/10
ra5,14?
Don't worry, Susannah, my thinking is a bit twisted. The others have got used to it and ignore me if necessary.
like the first part of medieval painer ot teenage mutant ninja turtle, debjed. insert a consonant in word before it.
ra5/14 - a sharp knock at the door, then two letters for the much marrried English king.
thanks guys, that's fireworks.
yay debjed.
Well done debjed.
how many total words today. Anyone?
93 words today.
but we dont have a king!! blonde day, early dinner might be called for! lol
It was a King from long ago, famed for his six wives?
i've got to have such a traditional christmas this year as we have friends from america staying, and they want a traditional english christmas
first wa 4/8 please
It's also the pronoun, like "she" and It
So, chestnuts and geese and lords leaping down the path?
oh y ty!!
*it
wa4/8 - same structure as what grows out of your head.
hi ata.
Hello all - i went to the list with 20 to go and blow me down the first word i had missed was the chickens - how dense
I guess so! midnight mass and big trees and carols and stuff
they expect that English xmas will be that radically dfferent from one here?
That's life, ursh.
howdee buddies. Looks like the lucky number of the day is 92
hi dc! thank you very much for the recipe! I'll give it a go this weekend and see if my meagre cooking skills are up to the challenge!
barm
thanks haz
Oh, an English Christmas has to be different. All Dickens and things.
oh yes. because we have *traditional* christmases LOL
LOL
You're welcome grace.
ooo wrong box sorry!!
so haz and all, nearer the time I'll be desperately asking for everything anyone can think of thats traditional!
im done folks bye bye all!!
Our traditional Christmas is usually blazing heat and cold lunch round the pool
My sister's inlaws often do a tradtional Danish xmas. Two differences from an American one: Crackers, and Rice Almond Pudding with hot cherry sauce.
Crackers and pantomimes. You'll have to have them.
Bye pinkhat!
omg pantomime. i'd forgotten that. ouch
hot temp, not piquant that is.
Because Americans know nothing of the delights of men dressing as women and taunting the audience.
you dont have crackers over there?
hmmm how much do I love my friends? enough to put up with pantomime hell for them???
I don't think they do, but I'm prepared to be shot down in flames.
by crackers do you mean crispy baked snacks or ignorant white people?? LOL
We can get them now, ata, but when i was growing up they had to be brought from Britain.
Oh go on, you couldn't live with yourself if you didn't.
LOL Gwen
things you pull and they go bang
interesting discussion...We have crackers, but usually only use them at new years, (i'm assuming the noise makers, and not the edibles)
no, i mean tubes of paper you pull, make a popping noise, and spew toys, trinkets and candy.
oh I could!
Kind of like explosive dogs.
a piñata with less work.
and they have junkie toys in them which the kids love - and silly paper hats come in the box
could make dog shaped crackers! LOL
mymum makes her own crackers, so we all actually get nice presents in them
You can get varying degrees of crackers. Rubbish ones (cheap) ranging up to expensive ones with lots of nice things. The jokes are always hopeless though.
oh, nice, ata.
That would be fun, Atalante! i used to make my own personalised crackers at Christmas. Then I discovered babble and the fact that there was more to life than stuffing a cracker.
ata, how does you mom make the "POP"?
Cracker joks are just fine by the time you've all gotinto the brandy
You can buy the pop from pop shops. No licence needed. Yet.
or whatever other sauce
I think she buys cracker kits from somewhere, a stationers or something
the crackers just gave me an idea for my holiday "stocking stuffers" now to find out how to make them.
I think Lakeland do cracker kits as well.
lb -they're not difficult once you get the production line going.
can we stop with xmas please its still september!!
dc, thanks for the recipe. Hi to all. time to grab lunch. bbl
If anyone has instructions for making crackers, I'd be most grateful. My kids go through them at an alarming rate. We can buy them here now, but they are very expensive. Not sure if we could get the "explosive" part here.
Christmas will come in its own good time - it's just that a traditional English Christmas need setting up.
you're quite welcome, Judy. That one is one of the trio of favourites between my sistter, mother, and me.
oh yes, Lakeland definitely do
And you can get their tree shaped ice cubes as well for an added touch.
i second susanna's motion!! LOL
krista, most joke shops would have the explosive bit, i'm sure.
what do you actually call the pop bit of a cracker?
Haz, if you have the "recipe" for the crackers, would you mind sending it to me? My email is in my bio. Thanks
The snap, I think.
lots of cardboard, ribbon, and tissue paper!!
I'll have a look out for you, lb. I certainly have it in book form (with illustrations), I'l have a look on google.
well, that was a fun grid today
I would ask my mother for you, but she is somewhere between San Francisco and Hawaii
first fireworks in a long time
www.oldenglishcrackers.com. You can find the make your own instructions bit within the website. And they are called cracker snaps, I was right (phew)
congrats, grace!
congrats, gracewer
Oh, cool...thanks, Haz. I think my kids would love making them.
Ah we going crackers or what?
wtg gracewer!
Well done, grace.
maybe, hetty, after all, sometimes you fell like a nut, sometimes you don't.
thanks Haz/
perhaps we'll make home-made paper chains this year. equally fun
that is fun, ata.
yup, I love doing that
Hobbit and Sily will have a field day.
true ... hadn't considered the Cat Factor
Do you use them for the trees, or just decorating any part of the house, Atalante?
You always should consider the Cat Factor. They are in charge.
any of you know what aggro is?
anywhere, everywhere :)
we learned to anchor the trees to the ceiling or wall against the cats, and to hang fragile ornaments very low, just in case.
lol we used to hang the delicate ornaments very *high*. the lower branches had cotton ball things that the cat could biff
You've just given me the idea to do a traditional English Christmas this year. My in-laws get homesick, so it would be nice for them, too.
my husband always says that, DC...everything is aggro to him
If they like it, we get the glory, okay?
ah, your cats batted at ornaments, rather than climbed the tree, i see.
Absolutely...i'll be consulting you a lot in about a month!
yup! Silverclaw does the same, little brat. I need to find some more material ornaments for her to kill this year
Be warned, Krista, a traditional English Christmas lasts for ages. You've Boxing Day to do as well.
we stopped using tinsel because of the cats
i have a house rabbit that last year somehow got in with the pressi's and ripped them apart!! fun fun
incredible what we do for the little monsters!
We already do Boxing Day. I love making the holiday last longer. We do all this work for just one day of celebration, you know?
likes to eat fake snow too!!
Aw, that's so cute, though, Susanna.
yes, house rabbits shred the most, um, random things.
think she knew we had chocolate in there...!!
Well, at least you're in the right frame of mind, Krista. I always laugh at the magazines appearing with suggestions for what to wear at every stage of every social occasion for a month.
oh yes. you eat so much food that only the most comfortable clothes ever get worn anyway
The same magazines will have loads of recipe suggestions. Then, the January edition will be full of 'How to lose weight' and 'How to look marvellous'
My house bunny (when I was a teen) chewed up the wood on my parent's console TV they were not happy...
we have no wall paper left behind the sofa!!!
ooooops
LOL! It's the same with our ladies' magazines here, too. And you will have totally fattening recipes right next to some weight loss advertisement.
how many words today folks?
If I were cynical I would say that they just recycle the same stuff year after year. But, of course, that couldn't be true, could it?
93 words today.
I'm sure I will need the fish, but I have monkeyed that ri6,24 until I never want to see another banana! Can anyone help?
i think that's only true in the last 30 years or so, havz
thanks haz.... then its ''fireworks'' lol
ri6 - tear + Knock
Congratulations cool girl.
Thanks, DC. At least I don't need the fish. My monkey never would have got that. And I'm done!
Congratulations Queen.
yay queen and cool girl!
Thanks, ya'll. You guys have a good time!
Okay, I should wander kitchenward to get the evening meal prepared. Have a good day everyone!
byeee!
pleasant evening, haz.
bye Haz and thanks.
Hello all
Will do - I'll avoid explosive dogs, that's for sure.
Hi and Bye, Haz
i suppose i should go do something constructive too. darn short grid! lol see you all later! Hi Jellen!
hi jellen
Hi and bye, lbd!
bye lbd
Hi everyone. How's the grid today?
it's nice, nef. hello.
Hi, Nef. It's a quick one.
Did you finally get some sleep, dc?
small but annoying!!
11 hours, Jellen
debating taking a nap this afternoon, so i can last through my shift tonight.
Good for you!!
clue for ri6 ??
I don't think I checked in her the past 2 days; have there been any "normal-sized" grids lately? I've been seeing huge and tiny a lot lately (or am I just complaining because I haven't been able to be here as often as I'd like?
what time is it over there??
ri6 - tear + knock
12:55 PM right now here.
Nef, we had one that was about 200. i think of "normal" being about 150 to 250, eh?
ri6 is a compound word; tear + type of urban music
i agree gwen.
TY for the weird word and FIREWORKS!
yay gwen!
Congrats, Gwen!!! WooHoo!!
gwen, is that a dalek plate/bowl in ur profile? It's cool, recardless.
I agree with you Gwen; about 150-200 is the size I consider normal
YAY Gwen!
dcseain, yep, Dalek collector plate.
We also had a 150 in the past few days--puzzles and days run together in my brain
"old style" Dalek. Plus the eyestalk is way huge, but still looks good on the plate
neat. part of a series?
dc, sorry, i know nothing about the plate! I'm just using it as an icon. not my plate, not my pic, either 8-)
gotcha, it's a beaut.
Hmm--I've heard of Elvis plates and John Wayne plates, but this is my first experience of a Dr. Who plate.
i'll take the good dr over John Wayne or Elvis, may he be praised, any day.
it's hard to get DW "collectibles" in the US. Have to order them from overseas. I have gotten a few through a toy collector I know. Toy daleks. Very adorable, and evil. LOL
jellen, if you werein the UK you would see plenty of DW toys and whatnot
Any hints for the two op words :)
DW stuff *everywhere* here
What are deleks?
talk show host, minus the R
that was a op4 clue
op + say "**" so the doctor can look down your throat.
krista, bad guys from the greatest TV show ever made
Thank you very much
That would be Dr. Who.
OH...from Dr.Who. Should have deduced that.
who is your favourite doctor gwen?
Do you like the new series as much as the old one, Gwen?
please, Doctor Who, not Dr. Who! (am i picky or WHAT)
jellen, absolutely!
frog, i have no favorite doctor. they are all my hero. 8-) (Except the one who was very badly miscast . . .)
CAPTAIN JACK!
:)
Apologies to the Doctor. I'm a bad typist and took a short cut.
Tom Baker *sighs happily*
clue for the e 8?????????
fannie, you use them for listening to the stereo.
I love david tennant and the comedy he brings to it but my all time favourite would have to be Tom Baker.
e8 is a compound = hearing organ plus annoying mobile ***** (or in the US, cell *****)
ea8 is a compound work for a listening aid.
A agree about Tom Baker.
my fave is whoever the current doctor on my screen is. I have all the old episodes (except the ones the BBC trashed, idiots)
word, not work
My hubby got me watching Dr. Who this summer so, I have actually not seen the older ones. :) Finished Series 1 with Eccleston, and working on Series 2 and 3 simultaneously on two channels and Torchwood
Why in the world did they do that, Gwen?
who was the one you think was miscast Gwen?
klaurel, you must go out and spread the good news, like your husband and me LOL
We only get moldy oldy episodes on PBS.
i grew up watich the orignal series on Maryland Public Television, in the wee hours.
frog, 5th doctor
Slyvester Mc coy?
krista, moldy! OMG you did not say that LOL
eventually MPT aired them all.
atalante, no, 5th was peter davison
ty for 8 word. got it.
I'm just saying that PBS never airs current episodes of anything. ;)
We have lots of the old ones on DVD, just haven't had time to go through them. :) Though I like the doctors, I don't want to take them to bed the way I want to take Captain Jack to bed
your pbs station must be even more broke than my pbs station
I thought Peter Davison was okay, my worst has to be sylvester mcCoy
yes, I know. I didnt realise you'd said it was the 5th you disliked
klaurel, you are not well LOL
They just finished the new Series 1 on our PBS station
No! I have this thing about guys and guns Sonic Screwdrivers just don't do it. :)
Yes, Maryland Public TV, if you'd judge by how often they have fund drives, is poor.
no, we have 4 PBS stations here, and Maryland's are really well-funded. Maryland is just a geeky state.
a friend of mine is also insanely hot for capt jack. i just have to shake my head in disbelief LOL
Watch it now, DC. ;)
Give me Orlando Bloom any day.
and I thought babblers had good taste ....
jellen, off topic!!! LOL
Yes, they are well-funded. But I end up watching WETA because they don't fund-raise as much. But WETA sends out very annoying letters.
Like captain Jack, but still prefer David Tennant any day.
Krista, i meant nothing untoward at Maryland. Much of my social life is there, nd geekiness is good, IMNSHO
agre, geekiness is cool
It's funny about Captain Jack. The rotten teeth just don't matter, do they?!
WETA's mailings are tiresome.
i mean we're playing a word game and discussing science fiction on TV. we must needs be geeks.
geekiness rocks
krista . . . no comment
Geeks rule the Babbleverse!
What rotten teeth? He has nice teeth!
Yes, PBS and geekiness go hand in hand. I'm a proud geek.
geek
I am a gaming geek married to a gaming geek raising good geek kids
good thing capt jack got his own series so he can stay offa my favorite show LOL
I don't think you can do anything to make JohnnyDepp look bad. I was lusting after him in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, for crying out loud!
jack! :)
gwen, i quoted you in Out of Context Quotes on LiveJournal: http://community.livejournal.com/oocqu otes/123149.html
Oh, Torchwood is hilarious!
wait a minute, not THAT captain jack!!
maybe we're discussing diff captain jacks....
ar 5 please (desperate begging) last word and i have been looking for ever! ducking fish
yes, Krista. My icon is Captain Jack
ar 5 - fire intentionally set.
LOL!! You can tell I'm not a Dr. Who geek. :) I need to refresh, I see kids on your icon...
yeah, those are my two dear geek kids
TY dc. I love being quoted 8-)
i new it was a fish word! ty ty ty $10,000 to dc
got to call Super Target and see if they can arrange 2 dozen cupcakes to look like a princess crown
since when does target do cakes of any stripe?
VERY cute kids, at that...oh, ok..hmmmmm...another cute Captain Jack...maybe I'll start watching Dr. Who...
Torchwood on BBCA, Krista
SuperTarget has bakery
Though the next two weeks of DR Who on Sci Fi feature Jack
yes, the supertarget does
and they are REALLY good and reasonable
weird, krista, none here in VA do..
Leesburg
i rarely go that far west.
must be a new thing.
Yes, having captain jack on DW for a week or two is okay. That way the Doctor can lord it over him some more LOL
Now that I know how way-off I was with my Captain Jack-related comment, I'm blushing.
changed my icon for the first time.
i would put up a new icon of the 10th doctor but i don't have a good square pic!
I am blushing with you, Jellen. Don't feel lonely!
yeah!
frog, thanks, spoke too soon! and great looking icon!
they can do 2-dozen cupcakes and arrange them like a princess crown
Husband has a client in Leesburg, so we ride along at times..we don't have a super target...thought they used to be called "Target Greatlands"
okay, so we're talking about Doctor who, Captain Jack, and cupcakes. My brain just fell off
There are Target greatlands which has the standard target stuff with a small food section
Dr Who smeared with cupcakes are we talking about?
The Supertargets actually have agrocery store in them as well, like Super Wal-Marts
Captain Jack smeared with cupcakes. :)
this conversation is getting hot, frog
right, i've seen groceries, minus deli, meat, and bakeries in Target Greatlands and Super Targes.
sorry Gwen i meant to say Doctor Who.
OMG ROFLMFAO !!
Oh, gotcha. Didn't know there were three species of Target. I guess we just have Ye Olde Generic Target.
the Target bakery by us is REALLY good. They get really creative and can do almost anything!
catching breath and stealing your icon, frog 8-)
Orlando Bloom smearing Captain Jack (from Doctor Who) with cupcakes made by Torchwood (on BBCA).
I could do that. And so would Captain Jack!
could anyone give a hint for the ea 8/50 please?
Captain is the first totally bi-sexual character. In Utopia, he was literally hitting a woman, a man, and a blue alien girl
excuse me folks, it is before the watershed, and i am getting very excited.
ea8 = compoound = listening organ + don't drive while you talk on the *****
ea8= compound word; hearing organ + tele****
nef - you use them so nobody is disturbed by what you are listening to
Hi, ursh!
hello jellen - been back and forward - making dinner
dang, now I don't think I can watch Dr. Who without the imagery of cupcakles
this has been a very nice chat, ty all for all the endorphins (sp?) gotta go now *whoosh!*
and since Jack is in chains in the upcoming episode, that could get very interesting
thanks!
Hee hee..bye Gwen
Bye, Gwen
bye gwen
bye gwen
Could I catch on if I started watching Torchwood now?
Jellen, for the most part
bye, all, off to nap and do work prep things. see some of you later.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torchwood
I'd watch it anyway to give it a try jellen, just to watch captain jack.
Bye DC,take care
Bye, dc!
Bye, gwen. Just as I asked for that clue I had a ph*** call that I had to take; it's a busy day for job-hunting here! :D
Thanks for the link, klaurel
Bye dc!

even in the face of impending doom, i STILL managed to select a fairly healthy meal!

hi scarlet
kth! allo stranger!
Kate!!! *Hugs to you!* How are you and the girls?
really good thanks
hi eva
Did your business take off enough to make it worth your while, kate?
I have a few hundred questions, kate... first: are you still planning to marry? Did the divorce come through? Did the girls' dad come to visit again?
not yet but I'm still hanging in there, I've built the site I've been wanting to build for years and I'm starting to build traffic to it, I've had one paying client as well
2 left any help on ri 6 or the 1st wa4?
Ker: ri6: tear a paper ri* + *** music, man... LOL
still no sign of my divorce papers (lost in the post twice grrr), still planning to get married though. James came to visit us and is coming over again for christmas if he can afford it. Everything is going well
Kate, if anyone deserved some kind nods from above, then you certainly do! I am happy that life seems to be cooperating once again for you! :-)
ty scarpet
er scarlet
aha! success.
thanks scarlet. If only I didn't feel so crappy today lol
LOL, Kero... I'll answer to anything! Glad you got it!
Congratulations Keerowyn!! Or, er, Kero... Karo Syrup? Gulp... I'm a goonball today!
lol it's ok I've had that kind of week too.
Okay, Kate... you can't drop a line like that and not tell me why you are feeling crappy!
Oh I just don't feel very well and it's doing my head in because I can't get on with anything
You are so kind, Kerowyn... LOL
Do you think you might benefit from some medical oversight, Kate?
Or, just a dark room with no sound?
it's probably just a bug, I'm sure I'll be fine
It really is the beginning of early flu season here in the states, Kate... have you been innoculated?
yay fireworks...cool video today too
Hi, seano, and Yippee for the light show!! :-)
no, I stay away from that type of thing lol, horrible phobia
Even though beloved and I are in our 60s now, we try to avoid the shots too... not that we fear needles, but the kickback reactions can be horrible...
The only vaccination that I can tolerate is the pneumonia shot every few years...
I haven't been to the doctor at all since my youngest was born
anyone need a clue before i skeedaddle?
You're young and full of energy, Kate... do you hate the medical profession, or just avoid them as much as possible?
Thanks, seano, I'll plod along at a snail's pace.
I just don't think medical intervention is necessary or useful unless you're seriously dying which I know I'm not so I don't bother going
Gotcha! I think that's better than the hypochondriacs who run to doctors with every sneeze...
best of luck all, I'll watch the footy on the box then !!
Lucky you, seano... I love the American football, too... wish I knew more about soccerr... just the Olympic style that I watch
Or, the World Cup... that's all I get to see.
this A in the centre is driving me crazy, it's the only tile I can't see any words from
Kate, I have the clothing that cooks wear in the kitchen and the fire crime
can anyone clue me for the ho5/14 plz - I just can't see it.
thanks scarlet
I'll search too, Sandie... You're welcome, kate.
The last A from the middle, Kate is A + Scottish "little"
the ho5/14 adds another letter to the end of the 4/5 before it... sorry that clue is terrible
No it's not, kate... it ends the way it begins... thanks!
Fireworks!!!!! Ty for that ho that got me finished.
wd sandie
Well done, Sandie... congratulations!!
Can I help anyone before I go?
Sandie, I still have 30 to go, so I'll poke along a non-warp speed...LOL. Thank you, though!
*at*
I have 30 left as well, could use some help with the Os please
I just found rowboat propellers...
well the op words are like a well known chat show host with a consonant missing.
She's African American, Kate... just one name...
got those thanks
The or word is o + double consonant+vowel.
Thank you, Sandie!!
Yw Scarlet.
The oa is row your boat.
thanks, that took care of all my vowel words :)
Likewise, Kate! :-)
fireworks
Yayyy greenbayladi!!!!!!!
Yahoo for greenbay!! How are you, green... haven't talked to you in a bit!!
ty for the clues. Have a good afternoon and evening.
hi Scarlet
Hello Fellow Babblers, how are we today ?
Right - I'm pushing off now - anyone need clues before I go?
my nose is always in the grid
Be well, green... take care! Hi, Aussie... how is my cyber darling doing?
Hiya Aussieme.
hi aussie, bye sandie
So long, Sandie... thanks for the help!
She is 16 months old now, ans has 14 teeth, walking everywhere, hardly goes in her stroller now...
*Faints* *You must be kidding* *Gasp* *Wow* See my shining smile? That's amazing, Aussie!
hawdy ya'll
hi nutty
Hi, nuttie! How be thee?
long time no see kth
i be hangin in there scarlet
Well, she is such a good girl, eats ALL her vegetables too, even brussel sprouts and spinach !! Not so keen on leeks, but I am sure they will grow on her
hi everyone. pretty icon Red. I love fall
Always good to hear, nut. Is Babblecast growing?
Hey Nutster !!
i think it is scarlet - we shall see
Thanks, deb. Good to see you! You are such a good mom, Aussie... get her to eat the veggies now and you'll have a fan for life!
She pretty much eats everything in sight right now... Her fave breakfast is strawberry yoghurt
I voted once, a few weeks ago, and then my ISP got cranky about hitting that site, even with the link below, nut... :(
can only vote once a month anyway scarlet, make sure you have it fixed by the first *wink wink*
Good mama, Aussie... when my daughter was little, the funniest food she loved was pork roast and sauerkraut, and then spaghetti and meatballs.
Oh, am I relieved to hear that, nut... *elbow*... I promise to help as I am allowed by the cybergods...
She eats her fruit too.... bananananananananananana oooh, help, I never know when to stop !!
LOL, Aus...
listen too i hope scarlet!
I have tried the #*!@^& site and for some reason I can;t get it to load... I see the chat and feel "cringy" that I don't know what all the hilarity is about... bad me!
I figure I'll take my 40 lashes and walk the gangplank by being honest, nut... any suggestions?
scarlet, why don't you just use the feed to subscribe, then you won't need the site.
Okay, nut... baby words to the world's biggest Luddite... feed? subscribe? site? Help!
ok, download the free itunes software from the apple website
*writing this down furiously*
once you install it i'll tells you how to do it
you can email for the rest if you like - but the rest is easier to explain once you are looking at it.
Oh... that sounds like I could do that... Thank you, nuttie.
ever so welcom scarlet - anything to keep a fan!
*Hugs to big nuttie-helper*
glad you don't mind my gym stank...
I have a cold, nut...
ewwwwwwwww - germs!
I seem to have come to a halt with 22 words to go, are there any really weird ones? I need H R P S B and W words
I want lots !! I am way back on 70 to go, but not long started...
ewwwwww... gym sweat...
Only need 1 w word though
Kate, it's a fairly normal grid...
Aussie, I have my W words... which do you need?
the first wa4/8 please Scarlet
WA+ a big, green f** tree for Christmas.
i wanna know why warsh isn't a word
Ooooh, fankoomuch !!

Toronto is great thanks inge

I heard some of your earlier broadcasts. Turns out the classical music announcer on my favorite station has a voice identical to yours. That.s not you commuting . is it?

Hello, lynxxx
am i the only one who's had trouble finding the p's? Am listless, but don't see where 10 more p's are going to come from.. must be blind to something.
scrabbler...can I ask you a medical question?
yes, kristin
(laughing just a little bit, BR)
this is not an easy grid, not for me
lots of pas dorens and all w/ the same 3 letters...what you want to get in golf
yup, i have four of them kristin, thanks
pa 4.5 -- prefix for graph
I'm having to eliminate dairy from my diet at this point (nursing Zach exclusively). In your experience, is this usually necessary for the entire time a baby is breastfeeding or can dairy be successfully reintroduced when babies are a bit older?
one more pa dorens-do you have the 6?
what reaction was zach having?
pa 4.5 -- tonight show host before johnny carson
nope, is it a weird one?
blood in his diapers...it is almost all gone now...just see a bit every few days in just 1 diaper or so
i have one that sounds like hiim br, he was jack paar (i thought)
pa6 is an oldish (fashioned) for pastor-pa**** Brown
pa 4.5 --golfers want to shoot these each hole, or better
oh thanks kristin...
yep
zach is not likely to have longterm milk sensitivities--you can try milk again SOMEDAY--ask your pediatrician when
pe 4.5 -- a pome
now just missing 8 from the lower p
a pome? like a fruit?
ph 4.6 -- add ** top of old smokey all covered ..
monkeyed that one, thank br..
ph 5.14 --- tele suffix
have to run (there went my ten minutes) see you later
ph 5.14 -- pl
thanks scrabbler...I will. Zach is still seeing my family practice Dr and will see her later today (we thought we'd try that for a while but we now think we would prefer a pediatrician). She hasn't had a whole lot of thoughts for us about the long term so I thought I'd ask you next time I saw you online and here ya are...thanks :)
bye dorens
yep, see a pediatrician---child specialists!
we are going to ask her for a recommendation today :)
can anyone help w/ the ri6?
ri 6 -- comedian torn and gift w***
thanks BR!
yw
wahooh! done!
congrats Kristinc !

hi jilli
bonjour Jill !
Hi, jilli. How's it going today?
notice Jill that i didn't say bonsoir ! learning slowly...
At what time it is appropriate to switch to bonsoir?
well when it is evening ... or at least approaching...
5ish was my guess
i keep forgetting Jill is on the west coast...
5-6ish is good...
Just curious.
trying to change my icon... but i keep getting "wrong type" even though its a JPG - clues about that ??
*F*I*R*E*W*O*R*K*S*
wtg Sandbox !!
No clues for you there, unless image is too big.
Congrats, sandbox!!!
ty
aahhhh, the size...that may be the case tx jellen
I tried again and still got "The image file is an unknown format" and the size was 94 kb !!
It's a mystery, montreal
one more to add to the endless list...
What would life be without its many mysteries, great and small?
so true jellen...
all these small struggles are rewarded when something actually works !!
I'm trying to distract myself from worrying about my cat. Took him to the vet today. . .
He has a bladder infection, an abcess in one eye, and diabetes.
what's wrong with it, him, her ?
an ageing cat then ?
Yes, 13 or so.

these last 4 words are killing me, I'm sure there are none left
ri= tear + urban music genre
Cholera is a bad disease.
ty scrabs
thanks so much
it certainly sounds unpleasant.
Massive diarrhea leading to dehydration and death.
and this was a 40 year old woman - you would think her immune system would be stronger. her 7 year old son is also hospitalized with the disease.
I am done--Kate--you will find your last 4 words.
Congrats, Scrabbler!!!

Hi Feather
Winter is ha*** in northern climates
Hugs Jellen
arrrrgggg internet was down after a storm..what DID we do before computers
excellent, ty
I took him to the vet today and he was diagnosed with diabetes.
hehe, if i put a W on it, it would sound like how my grandma says the word for cleaning clothes
gotta scoot, be back later. Hugs to all
krista indeed what the heck did we do!!
aw, sorry, Jellen
You're welcome, feather
Hope it can be managed with diet.
guess I read a lot more, joanne!
Hi, Krista, btw.
who jell??
My cat, Merlin
haha me ,but not anymore i be here when i get home
aww sorry to hear that jell i hate when pets have probs
Hi Jell...did he have symptoms?
Merlin will be right Jellen. Ill give him mind cuddles fo ryou
Yes, that's why I took him. Knew he wasn't feeling well.
u always know when behaviour changes
It's hard to tell who's doing what with three cats.
what does the E word start with that isn't the period of time?
ea8/50
whoa, ok
got it! yay!!!
Thanks for the mind cuddles, herin. I'll make sure he gets them.
just looked at your pix; he's a handsome fellow
lol i has 2 dogs and one is new here i call him broken.. poor thing has a limp that vet said he sees nothing from x ray
Merlin had a rough start in life. He's very special.
how 'bout a clue for that one, Feather? (or someone else since she's pressed for time)
s'ok
listen with and talk into
I cant believe i actually did and finished my house work in 1.5 hours BEFORE coffee
ea8= listening organ + tele*****
tail kinda looks crooked too but he's a sweetie
better clue: a antique hearing aid
His tail was broken in three places when we found him.
5 left to do when I get home -- time now to start the closing of the library for today -- back later and thanks for the clues I've been peeking at :)
awww
Oh poor kitty
someone did this??
bye jilli
byeee jill
ahhh! never would have seen that, thanks
Yes. The vet says it looked like someone swung him by his tail against a wall.
omg grrrrrr
Bye, jilli!
I hope that person goes to the special level of hell were there is fur everywhere and they are allergic to fur
ok, did 60, 33 left. not bad for a few minutes!
makes me so mad to hear things like that..just want to find the buggers
Wtg, feather.
very productive, there, Feather
eww i like that herin
man, i feel like i've been going all day. got home, heated leftovers, fed nick, made chocolate chip cookies from scratch with daniel, washed and am drying a load of nick's clothes. whew!
and by the way buggers was being nice
all in 3 hours
We found him in a bush beside our driveway. Thought it was a bird, not a kitten.
Man, feather! You deserve a break!
Sounds like you HAVE been going all day! The cookies alone would have wiped me out.
no kidding! hubby's got a training, so i'm doing bedtime solo. thank goodness i got nick to sleep in the swing.
that was all on top of being back to school all day!
Thats what someone said here once. Merlin was found as a little bitty kitty awwwweee.
Feather you are a great mum
hehe, wait till hubby sees the sink though....haven't cleaned up in there yet, and his normal "job" is to clear the sink at night
He was so tiny and pathetic. Fell in love at once.
well, i wanted to do something active with daniel since he's been at the sitter's all day, and has been used to being with me all day during the summer
Is he the fat but cute tabby?
jellen, that's how we ended up with 4 cats. we're just suckers for the cuteness!
No, he's the skinny gray striped.
I've had up to 6 cats at one time. No more!
2 are sisters, came as a package deal, one is a stray that adopted us, and the other is her daughter out of her one and only litter
I just saw way too cute. Thats how i got my kitty i saw her as a itty bitty kitty and had to have her. It just took 8months
6! wowza! and i had trouble with 4! we're down to 3 now, would love to only have 2, but can't part with any
ok all hagn and congrats to all finishers and those who don't but tried their best ...that's usually me lol
happy babbling and chatting byeeeeeeee
bye joanne
I have three with me now.
Bye, joanne
relax feather no more cookie making
gn jell
ok, gotta go get daniel's room set up for bedtime and drag him outta the tub.
hehe, the rest of the batch is in the fridge, waiting. only actually cooked one sheet so far
bbl
Later, feather.
later Feather
I have one on my foot
Okay. I feel better, thanks. Going to do some homework now. *scritches Pandora* Bye!
Scritches merlin
how freggen heard is it to find a pyschologist?
belated bye, Feather, sorry...dang, it's storming again..hope I don't get cut off..I may have to do laundry or some other chore
HI Krista
Krista what about cleaning the bathroom?
Hey ya herin, how are you? It all needs done,unfortunately >:(
Krista i find spot cleaning 30 -1hr a day makes life easy
I dont do vacuming
that's true, herin. I try to keep up but having four of us at home all day keeps me on my toes. I need more helpers and less messers.
If they are old enough to clean up make them
Yes, I have started to crack the whip a bit in that department. Tired of being the maid. I found a daily check list works with my 11 yeard old pretty well.
At 11 i was cooking dinners
The 6 year old and the husband are the real culprits. I bet you are a good cook if you started so early.
Make it a game with clothes. get 2 bins one for colours one for whites and get them to put the washing in separate bins. Some one i know had a basket ball hoop above the bins
I used to be a chef
I used to enjoy cooking (that and my mum (love you mum) is really crap in the kitchen
Love the basketball idea; I think I've seen those in catalogs. Do you get any American cooking programs there?
not really with the AMerican shows. We do have an American food store
A lot of food stuff they cook with (the dairy stuff for instance like cool whip ) we dont have here. Also i dont think i have found dry salad dressing either.
All hot dogs and apple pie? I'd love to see what they sell...Do you have the ho 6/24?
Do you have the HO 5/14
Krista
http://www.usafoods.com.au/
This is the store that we get stuff from.
no, sorry, don't have the HO 5/14..I'll have a look at the site...
Meat and dairy and anything that doesnt have a long shelf life tends not to be shipped and its quite expensive ($12 Aus for captin crunch cereal)
Ho plus sun god
add an h for the ho 5/14
Hi Inge. My fave is Herr's Philly Cheese Steak Kettle cooked chips and TGI Fridays Potato Skins
and plural it for the ho 6/24
Danke, inge and herin.
never tried either of those dishes
yw Krista, I think musicmom's real first name is the same as yours
That site is fascinating. I never thought anyone would give a hoot about "American" food. I haven't either, Inge. Herr's makes good chips, though.
They are chips (crisps) in bags on is 22 ounces.
I couldn't live without my jello pudding. We cant get Jello Gelatin as its banned here
Why is Jello banned?
Oh, I didn't know that, Inge. I was told it's a Bavarian name. Why herin, CJD?
I wrote down the address and will have to check it out sometime. What do they eat for upset stomachs, if not jello?
Yep Krista due to the cows being in a CJD area.
I didn't give it to my kids for ages, but I do every now and then, now (for same reason..nothing but boiled bones)
But the gelatin comes from the cows hide not hoof and the enzymes change in proses. I got an email from Kraft about it
We have Aeroplane Jelly
Were the cows are grown the health / agriculture people monitor it from start to end
that's good to know. it's still gross, but good to know. :) It's funny, we don't call it jelly, just jello or gelatin. Jelly is only a spread here (as in jam, jelly, preserves).
Yes Peanut butter and jelly is a good example. I am used to translating into 'American' : )
I guess that would sound pretty disgusting if it were your kind of jelly!
well, I will withdraw to the parlor now to watch TV. I always fall asleep doing it though. Gute Nacht.
NEW!! jelly comes from seaweeds....
I still dont get Peanut butter and choc
Agar is the seaweed jelly
rh word, please?...nice to see you, Inge. Schlafen Sie gern (that's probably not correct) :)
visit this website http://actsinc.biz/welcome.html
do you have the RA 5 14?
it is healthy and organic
no, herin...i'l find that one first....vonbayrags or herin..can u taste a seaweed flavor with agar?
No you cant taste the differences
Do you have the RA 4/5?
ra 5.14 + ra 4.5 but put add cons b4 the last letter
no, don't have it
Oh k um RA 4 /5 plus vegetable is a **a
ty, all who helped...I'm a team effort
please help on the ri6/24
ri 6.24 its a retaining wall
ty
np
Did you jet them now?
this was just on the telly
http://www.4myearth.com.au/shop/ envirofriendly food wrap
and for the fruit http://www.fruityfaces.com.au/
love the fruit ones! Those are both great ideas, and I've never seen anything like them here.
I think they ship OS.
ok, i really tried to follow those ra clues, got the ra5/14 and ra4/5, but after that got lost!

I will send it to you as well Stid

I will put my email address in my profile and whoever wants it I will send it to them
I looked Nutty and couldn't find it.

Hi
harraw
i need ri 6 also so pleaes someone clue it.
i have been tired too must be the weather
sorry don't have it yet
yeah- i'm actually worried about one of my dogs because of it
:(
i'm putting ice in the water tonight, just iced her belly and we're going to the vet tomorrow night
gee
whats wrong with the dog?
is she hot?
its bad enough to be sick when you DO understand that you're sick - i can't imagine not getting it
she's been a little wobbly
and excitable
i'm assuming she's hot
and i think she might also have a uti
Which Ri 6?
though, dehydration could make her seem to have one
clues please for po last 4/6. i have tried every combo i think...........
aaaaanyhow...
she and i both gotta get into bed
Tragic see if you can get the dog to eat frozen peas. Dogs cool from the inside out not outside in
with infants and animals it is so hard cause they cannot tell you whats wrong
hmm
she'd totally eat anything i gave her
got that last po word. so no need.
don't think i have pees though
ri 6 is what we need herin
corn (but the poop...so i shouldn't) and pedia-pops
lol... sigh
i hope she is okay TS
po4 is one of the spice girls
thanks - her nose is still wet, and she's alert
ri6 is tear paper & music type
oh i had that one sorry
got it. ty
i gave her regular ice too...
which RI 6
ty paintguy got it.
ar5 please?
ok- i'm gonna go cuddle her...
only one ri 6 but got it from paintguy clue. ty anyway herin
oh fish me ok my bad. To tear plus a style of music. Sorry i though there was 2 RIs
thanks pain i wouldn't have got that
I saw that clue before and did not understand it.Not sure about music type.Could you reclue second part?

Cuddles the TS

There is a woman on the telly that is 70 youd swear she was 40
ho5, 6 two letter word for lady in the night + a cheer
missing two pa words: the 5 and the 6. any clues?
pa5 is a plural
pa6 is a preacher
ho clues: a dance done in israel with 4 letters, then ad a fifth silent letter to the end of that for a ho 5, then make plural for 6.
pastor isnt in there........minister isnt with pa. so i am lost.
it's sort of an old fashioned term fannieg
think "little house on the prairie"
pa6 last 3 letter is a male child

I still remember going to services on sukkot...lots of fresh fruit and pastries...
We could all have a lot of fun if we all celebrated all the holidays! Sukkot goes on for a week, doesn't it?
I like the Hindu holiday where they throw paint at each other
I can't remember if it's 7 or 8 days (like Chanukah)
I like the ones where you eat...Passover, Chanukah, etc...Yom Kippur (fasting for a day) not so much
Just be grateful you don't have to do Ramadan
Ramadan would probably hurt...fasting all day, then a feast each night? I KNOW I would overdo it!
I couldn't be Catholic, either...I like my vices too much to give them up for Lent!
(That was a joke...I hope no one is offended)
Don't worry dan; I'm Catholic and not offended. Instead of giving things up for Lent I've found it's much harder to be kind
Thank you Nef...I was going to go stand in the corner.
especially to the idiot drivers who endanger your lives by their dumb driving
No offense here -- not RC, gave up giving up for Lent
hello again everyone
hi HK (I'm not getting my dishes done)
Hi HK! Darth says Hi too...
Just imagine trying to say "bless you and all around you" instead of #@*%!!! when someone cuts you off! :) It's been the hardest thing I've ever done for Lent in my life!
jili - that's tragic!
Hi Helen and jilli
I consider cursing idiots to be one of my vices
lol HK -- will
i gave up guilt for lent one year
hiya nef!
so you wouldn't want to try, I guess
do it now so I can enjoy the flip
20 minutes left to my b-day & 19 words to go
did it work H***?
gogogo HK -- back to help soon
i gave up lent one year & never looked back
well, it was an interesting 6 weeks!
lots of introspection
I didn't do it when I was younger (in my 20's and 30's; but I found it helps me get centered now that I'm older
bbl cu tomorrow
hard to put in word after my bottle of champers
night H***
nooooooooooo - *WORDS*
celebrating already HK? :)
hi everyone...can one of you help me w/ ho5,14?
that would have been funnier if i hadn't been using lickety & it would have taken 'wrods' in the chat
sorry true; I don't have it yet
ho + cheer (***, ***)
this is my first time to play and i'm down to 3 words!
best thing ever happened, okay i exaggerate, not the best thing ever, but a really, really good thing: i treated myself to 1 1/2 hour massage & cause i had to wait 20 minutes she went over time - 2 hours & 15 minutes & took $10 off for my b-day!
niters nef!
almost a palindrome
thanks so much!!!! i had the plural, but missed that one
true - your first time & your pro already????
good going true; I reach the point that I need to chat because I can't see words (then I mess up and enter words in chat and chat in the word box!)
nef - put in words for me, please
lol...hardly a pro...
what do you need hellen? Maybe I can help
LOL, HK; I'm trying ti FIND words and don't see any!
ok dan - rh 6/27
i keep dozing off and i just have one more to go
put a chair near the front of the ra5/14
true, most people don't pay for the game until they've tried it. Paying for the game is "going pro" ere
true - you're pro cause you have an icon, therefore, ahem, 1st time, already pro, ADDICT!
(It looks like a REALLY fancy spelling of RAP)
yeah, i've been playing all day...i'm hooked, so i thought i'd go ahead and pay!
thanks dan - got that
FIREWORKS!!!!!!!!!!!
yea Lyn!!!
addict is exactly correct!
good on you trueheart... welcome :)

mrp - but that's not true, it's freaky, i liked him better the other way
jilli; they really don't speak the same language. *I* don't get viruses on my mac; but then again I don't get all of the wiz-bang features that most PCs get either
