6:21 am

ssssss - end - this rotten keyboard

How many SO words please

6:21 am

Hi everyone - See we're having a bad day again. Side note, I personally protest against chat being available only if you've paid for pro!

6:21 am

ok guys, being nice did not work... let's ignore the brat while waiting for the report to hit home.

Grana i thought you went to Tesco to sort it out.

6:22 am

I would before this silly kid appeared, but not now. Pro want that pricey when i joined unless it has gone up?

Uni i am sorry to say that but this is getting tiresome. I love you and lore and some of the other non pro players but im about to splode at the lack of respect

6:23 am

i tend to agree with you uni - we would also miss the likes of joanne, meliae and many more...

6:23 am

Sorry! Ididn't know it was that big of a deal! I'll never do it again

6:23 am

noooo - too broke to afford it. vet bills

.

6:23 am

I'm a university student, in debt for many thousands of dollars. Paying for a word game seems ludicrous to me.

6:23 am

no need to make the chat only available to pro users, if drG agrees in appointing some moderators.

I am guilty of being a pro pro account troll and i realised how horrid i was. I also had my account paid for by someone. Its a right itch not being able to afford it. I agree with you sprite

6:24 am

i second that sprite.

6:24 am

But he won't sprite. Afternnoon all

6:25 am

hi FM

6:25 am

people misbehaving here is still an exception to the rule, so if we can have a moderator in each timezone, we can handle it easily.

Hi FM

6:25 am

why not, FMitch? Scared of sharing a bit of power?

6:25 am

well, the game would still be available free, and there is a forum I think

OH Sprite can we have a clue bat with spikes ?:P

6:26 am

that sounds more painfiul than the fish!

6:26 am

too bad there isnt a feature like they have at tangleword....you just click on that name and hit mute and their chat just not show up on your screen

6:26 am

LOL lady

OH hi Dart i like that idea

6:26 am

snoif is such an idiot!

6:26 am

ow that would be wonderful, dart

6:26 am

now thats a plan dart!

That way you are personally mutted to tools

6:26 am

what a wonderful idea dart !

6:27 am

ten they can just type away and nobody sees it and they get bored

6:27 am

From previous internet experience, I realize there are many ways to solve our troll issues, Dr. G and others just need to have the time/will to use them.

How many DO words please?

6:27 am

Hi montreal

I have 2 SO words and 2 Sw words is that right

6:27 am

none herein

6:27 am

well, I haven't seen drG responding well to any good suggestions lately, so I will not hold my breath. But I will drop a few lines to lickety... he is a brilliant programmer and I bet he can do some good things with these ideas.

6:27 am

let's cancel snoif's acces

6:27 am

Respect systems are also quite helpful, but only if available to pro users. Otherwise, trolls could just give each other respect points.

6:27 am

I'd love to shuffle some letters today.

I gaffed on the DO one sorry

6:27 am

3 so and 3 sw

ANgel boogle style?

Thanks

6:28 am

i'm snoifs brother

Thank you Gran that was what i was wondering

Can i have the lenghts for the So please i have 2 4s and 1 4 and 1 5 for the SW

6:29 am

another sw5 herin

6:29 am

2 sw 5

6:29 am

actually, babble is not behaving well at all today as it is, lol.

6:29 am

so 5,10 and sw 5,18 needed

Thanks

Thanks so much

opps forgot to look backwards

6:30 am

yes, herin!

6:30 am

yea it was a hoard slog today sprite

**mental image of Angel giving the grid a shake***

6:31 am

still is... I get the red window after about every 2nde word and half of my messages don't come through without me copy-pasting them again.

6:31 am

lol Angel... I know that feeling :)

Groovy was having issues like that earlier

6:32 am

are there 2 SO 5 ?? if so, can't find 2nd one...

6:32 am

just one

there is one that is most achie

6:32 am

and two sw5

6:33 am

tx une, got 2 so and 3 sw

6:33 am

No!

oh for goodness sake when can dr god ban isps too

6:33 am

I restarted babble and now I see I have lost lots of words too :(

6:33 am

so: achy, more achy, achy with a different final vowel

brb

6:33 am

he can, lady... I think he just does not want to put in the effort it would require. We need to talk to lickety, I think.

6:34 am

Hell, I go to make coffee and the kids have taken the cover off my mousemat >:(

6:34 am

Hey yo i'm from the south radiation is the thing that i'm talkin about yo

6:34 am

6:37 am

6:37 am

6:37 am

6:37 am

6:37 am

later lyn - hi annie

6:37 am

it is part of the babble expert lickety made, granadan

6:37 am

My lickety chat hasn't worked in weeks :(

6:38 am

6:38 am

6:38 am

6:38 am

go annie go !

6:38 am

where do I find it sprite?

6:38 am

6:39 am

just email lickety, granadan, and he will send you the download link and keep you informed about the new versions.

6:39 am

TrollAway

6:39 am

*aiming at troll and holding down spray button*

6:39 am

GRTANDAN ANSWER ME

6:39 am

pepper mace, granadan

6:39 am

guys, as long as they don't come in hordes, just ignoring them is really the best strategy.

6:39 am

Oh thanks! I seem to miss so much LOLs, must be in my on world... its nice here though

6:39 am

need new can annie !

6:40 am

I have some spray to freeze dog poop, would that do so i can join in?

6:40 am

*hands montreal a big new can*

6:40 am

spray away granadan !

6:40 am

any pesticide is welcome

6:40 am

spray away, gran

6:40 am

LOls, forgot that, yep ive ot frontline too

6:41 am

"pointing at troll and holding down buuton with 2 hands"

6:43 am

Why do I always grind to a halt at just overhalf way...

what a load of shit this is with the mamama!! get real!! 7 year old my fat hairy ass!!

6:45 am

mrP, please... can we now ignore the brat? Must more effective than talking to it all the ti4.

6:45 am

That explains the poor spelling and non-words though :)

6:45 am

all the spraying might have worked...

this trolling every single night has become a blemish... it is annoying. sorry sprite, it is nothing but a pain... will ignore it as much as I can

6:46 am

no, mental age that sounds quite accurate - but ignore, trolls feed on reaction and starve if ignored

6:46 am

theyre melting!

granada, I feel sorry you were singled out... frustrates me the way that happens

6:46 am

well, feeding it is only making it last longer... suit yourselves though... you can find me on lickety chat.

6:47 am

Funniest thing to happen so far today, ives me a iggle, no worriesd!

:)) :))

6:47 am

Sprite, sorry to irritate you. I have a habit of taking the bait.

6:47 am

might have been your "dog poo freezer" stuff that did it grana !

6:49 am

I think it was the roach spray

6:50 am

definitely the dog poo spray that did it. i find the trolls stupid and annoying and i wish they would learn to spell

6:51 am

i'm going to sleep for a while, and hope my internet connection stabilizes. Ciao!

6:52 am

bye, dc...

6:52 am

tat DC, good luck

6:52 am

later dc

6:52 am

thanks, yall, later. {poof}

6:53 am

have ppl been having glitches loading?

6:53 am

oh wow, thats a new one

6:53 am

all the time, rolin

6:54 am

hi Ata! I heard you and me both were sorry we could not have nemesis :)

6:54 am

hi ata, rolin

6:54 am

mornin' all!

Opps HI is it safe?

6:56 am

welcome back herin - code yellow for now

Hey everyone, what's up?

6:58 am

hey, lickety!

6:58 am

troll fest

6:58 am

hi lickety

6:58 am

hi all :)

lickety chat doesn't seem to load

6:58 am

hey lickety! We'd love you to convince drG that we NEED a mute button in this chat to make the entries of trolls invisible

6:58 am

hey, ata :-)

6:58 am

hi atalante

6:58 am

hi lickety - was a troll attack earlier...

bad timing for lickety chat to fail

6:59 am

or a virtual cattle prod so we can zap them

6:59 am

sprite, couldn't have said that better myself

6:59 am

actually, I think i would enjoy the prod more than a mute button

6:59 am

hmmm. not bad...first complete pass through the grid leaves 39 words to find. Could be a lot worse.

one that activates when they hit enter

7:00 am

ugh, 99 left and struggling now

I had to duck out to remake the bed nice day today sheets were on the line

7:00 am

to be honest, lickety, the lickety chat never really works properly for me. Either I cannot connect to it, or I cannot correct with backspace, or my messages won't go to the chat, but only activate the Options button on the Expert.

7:00 am

lol herin

hide and show seems to work

13 left no list

I know about the backspace issue - hard to fix

7:00 am

what would be really funny is an ignore button that they don't know about, so they can waste their days typing crap and we can just press ignore and laugh

7:00 am

go herin go!

7:01 am

but you just know you would have to unignore so you can go back and laugh at how sad and desperate they are!

7:01 am

Ata, that is what I am voting for. It seems drG will not have moderators. Least he could do is give us some button to ignore trolls, I'd say.

Thanks Annie. Pardon spelling errors im in the dark upstairs about to go to bed.

7:02 am

such button apparently exists in another game...

7:02 am

yes, it would be easy to implement. But drG has been refusing all kinds of changes for a long time, alas.

7:03 am

brb

7:03 am

niht herein

not going yet

Finish this first

7:03 am

lol yes granadan!

I am sure that DR G has been reading our incessant complaining about this issue

7:04 am

reading, probably. I really hope he will do something about it though. I vote for the ignore option :D

7:05 am

I'm with you there, Sprite. Also, training courses in the art of 'ignore' for Babblers who can't resist taking the bait.

7:05 am

anymore cookies herein? *looks hopeful*

Jac we actually thought that the last UTB was a nice person

7:06 am

In fact, even talking about it here is feeding the little blighters.

7:06 am

I am afraid that will not help, Jac, I am someone calling into the desert with that approach, alas. But the button would work perfectly... if people would love to chat with the trolls, I will zip them too :)

7:06 am

Ditto, sprite.

7:07 am

ditto, ditto, sprite

7:07 am

could be orse - at least you dont et them quoted when people reply

7:07 am

Oh no! I don't get stats any more :(

7:07 am

oh Im sick of this keyboard

7:07 am

poor Fordy... ti4 to decide whether to go pro or not?

Cookies. No cookies today. I made muffins yesturday

7:07 am

then it is time to go pro, Fordy

7:08 am

i can't, i don't have a credit card

7:08 am

paypal!

7:08 am

or paypal

Pay Pal Fordy

7:08 am

paypall is your friend

ok im here sorry about that

7:11 am

no menieres :(

7:11 am

sorry you're here?

Yep it appears that my server was laggin

7:12 am

Im hoping she was off findong cookies

7:12 am

cookies or curried sausages

7:12 am

cookies please, dont eat sausages

7:13 am

65 to find and, due to glitches in site loading, the 153 I have took ages to enter. I'm off out tonight to watch our local amateur dramatic group to Alan Ayckbourn's 'Seasons Greetings' so I'll come back later and hope things are working better.

I haven't made biscuits thus none in the house. I dont buy stor bort

Have fun Jac

7:13 am

have a great time, Jac

7:13 am

I will, herin. They're a good group. Byeee.

7:14 am

have a nice night out jac. home made sausages will do then but they might make my coffee tatste weird!

Oh thats what i might make tomorrow proper Scottish Shortbread

Hi everyone

HI Becca

7:16 am

hi becca!

How many MOs please i ahve 2

7:17 am

i have 2 herin

sigh i have 12 left and i just cant see them

7:19 am

herin, if you are listless, you are doing quite well, i am listless too but will not get as far as you

7:20 am

youve got all the mos herein

THanks Annie i try every grid that i have time to play to get to between 7- 16 last night i caved at 20. I like to try to get my brain to remember words as i have a shoddy memory

Thanks Grana

7:21 am

herin, your memory is not shoddy if you came this far, quite the opposite

I am using Morewords and Amo. Hunt down the words and find them like a would with a jigsaw

7:22 am

whats Amo?

http://www.amo.qc.ca/cgi-bin/pub/ODico /dico.out

7:23 am

ah morewords..love morewords...

7:23 am

have to get going, see you all later

7:23 am

couldn't live without it!

7:23 am

later, annie :-)

Its the same principle as more words but more specific say im looking for a Z word I type in ZO** and it searches for the 4s and so on

bye annie

later ANnie

7:24 am

oh cool

7:24 am

morewords does the same thing, herin

Une More words does but maybe i am doing it wrong if i type ZO** it has all of the possible combos which doesnt work for RE words

Ok i was doing it wrong opps

7:26 am

do you type the letters you know and substitute hyphens for the ones you don't?

um i was using * not - i feel blond now

7:26 am

LOL :-D

7:27 am

thank God for good friends... just got a whole package of clothes from a friend of mine. Even a wintercoat! That will save me so much money :)

7:27 am

fabulous, sprite!

wow sprite, that's great!

Lovely Sprite. My G.F and i clothes swap a lot,

7:28 am

totally happy with it! Clothes she will not wear anymore... I am so glad I got them!

7:29 am

my daughter and her friends do the same thing--very cool!

7:29 am

winter is starting here and I hardly had any clothes with long sleeves. Have now though :)

I only have one friend as small as me, so we borrow from each other if we need something - she eve has the same shoe size - it's great!

Yah Sprite, I am trying to find summer clothes not fun

Becca my g.f is the same shoe size too she has borrowed my boots before. I don't wear them but keep them around. Don't ask me why i have no idea.

I also have male friends borrowing my male shirts too

i don't think any of m male friends would fit in my clothes - way too small!

Becca can i ask what size jean pants you are in inches?

no idea - i go by British size 10 for lower half, 8 for top half

My Bf probably could steal your jeans hes a size 32 inch

yeah but i bet he's not a midget too!

Um just under 5 9

I know that he wears size 12-14 boys tops and small tshirts.

7:36 am

i wear my bfs jeans heh but he doesn't fit in mine..

just looked it up - size 10 is 27" waist

too small for him

Fordy my male friends were forever stealing my jeans and shirts as i prefer the cut of the shirts.

Sprite what else did you get in your new clothes?

7:37 am

I much prefer men's jeans because they have big pockets

7:38 am

about 6 or 7 tops... almost all long sleeved and in the style I love.

and they are comfier in the waist. I love the big pockets too as i hate having a handbag at all times.

Yah Sprite thats great

ah, kids in bed :)

hi mrp

HI Mr Pres

7:39 am

wtg mrP! I just got a package from a friend of mine with clothes she does not wear anymore... even her wintercoat :)

7:39 am

SO glad I did not order new clothes yet... did not have the money, but did not have clothes anymore either... this solves it mostly :D

Morning Babblers!

7:40 am

hi Nanette

hi nono

Hi Nono

7:40 am

hi nono

Sprite do you swap kids clothes at all?

7:41 am

oh yes lady, we do. Even used to go to specials swap sales when they were smaller. Notmuch in their sizes now anymore, alas. But sometimes they get clothes from older kids and we pass on the good stuff to the younger ones.

7:42 am

When I was at school + still growing I got almost all my clothes either from my brother (2 years older) or my best friend Helen, who was always a size bigger than me

THats a brilliant idea. A friend of mine just had her baby girl she was quite a large bub yet her friend had a bub at the same time but smaller so they swapped clothes

7:43 am

i don't really remember having new stuff bought til i was about 13..

Clothes has never been a big deal to me. Bags yes clothes no

7:43 am

I never mind second hand. Actually, I love it.

Best score was 12 pairs of near new shoes from the girl that lived upstairs and was moving and couldnt take them with her due to space

7:45 am

as long as my clothes are comfy, clean and warm, I don't care much. I have my own style, don't fancy trendy stuff. I am happy as can be with this box of goodies :)

7:45 am

I love old clothes

Thats the best thing Sprite.

7:46 am

so do I, Ata :)

I have scored in the past designer shirts due to opshop

7:46 am

I especially love old clothes from friends cos every time I put them on they remind me of that friend and makes me smile

i like bargains, so charity shops are my friends!

7:47 am

that too, Ata! I loved this clothes while she was still wearing them, and now I will love wearing them myself, thinking of her. A double gift :)

7:47 am

*these clothes

woohoo - greyed out the a square

Ata thats a lovely thing to say. I through out donated over 3 x 100 litre garbage bags and thats thats just the start

7:50 am

woot Becca :)

6 left

dang Re words woot becca

oh joy.... time to sew my son's long pants into shorts! LOL... he has grown out of his winter uniform and with all the holes in his trouser pants, we can afford to make them into shorts!

7:54 am

always a good choice, mrP :)

hooray for sunny weather in the southern hemi. shame i can't turn my summer clothes into winter wear so easliy :(

Mr Pres that is a great idea. I can remember a long time ago my exs 3 year olds long pants became 3/4 pants

saves me $60 on uniforms!

wow

7:55 am

that is a lot of books, mrP ;)

uniforms are so expensive

is it weird to still think about someone even though they were a bad person

7:55 am

Hello all - back for 93

Mr Pres the boy of yours will be taller than you soon

are they normal words? the wr's?

8:01 am

def english becca but not madly common

ok, keep trying

8:02 am

they all start the same, Becca.

still stuck at 4 left

8:02 am

8:25 am

Well, this is a fine mess. I was on earlier, entered lots of words into the non-improved, primitive version of babble that was available earlier on, and the new version has EATEN them.

8:26 am

Some are here, some are not.

8:26 am

nooooooo!

8:26 am

Hi all...clue please for se7/40???

Haz hi and there has been a lot of issues with babble tonight. I think we need to print out the list hand right it then copy it across if its being a pest

8:27 am

It's a pain, but it's character building. Or something.

new version?? Has lickety issued an updated version past beta 11

I luckly havent had any issues

8:27 am

no, babble, nono. not lickety's page. I think

but i didnt list it till 3 to go. need to kick myself over missing an obvious one

8:28 am

No, it's just that it's back to normal now, Nono. This morning's version was like something you would have nightmares about.

and done

8:28 am

Well done Herin.

oh ok sorry you had problems with it haz and glad i didnt come in earlier

8:29 am

se + if something happen often you will say it happens fre*****ly

woohooo Congrats Herin!

8:29 am

thanks bubba!!

*stares in disbelief at top letter e*

8:39 am

isnt it hideous!

*speechless*

8:40 am

Well, at least you're having some feeling about it...

hello

8:41 am

Hello TO.

8:41 am

Morning, y'all.

hi TO

hi Judi

8:43 am

Hi again everyone! I see babble is in better shape than several hours ago...

hi judi

hi Uniquity

8:44 am

Hi all, loads of REs, I see...yuch!

i slept in a bit later this a.m. and am glad i did by the sound of how things were here this morning

hi liz

8:46 am

It ate my words, Uniquity, not all but some. And now I have to try and remember them!

8:48 am

I hate that. It could at least eat none of them or all of them

8:48 am

I know. Consistency would have been nice.

8:49 am

Would consistency be important in curried snags?

8:49 am

Word snacking can only lead to problems later in life.

8:50 am

consistency would definitely be useful in poking the curried snags

8:50 am

Maybe that's what the poking is for - to check for consistency?

8:51 am

maybe! we should ask herin

8:52 am

Too late, she's gone to bed, I think.

8:53 am

she's the expert though

8:56 am

True, though who knows, there may be others with knowledge.

8:58 am

there might! I wonder ...

9:00 am

do you think 80 words is sufficient about of words to go to the list or not yet keep trying?

9:01 am

thats a very personal question

9:01 am

You go to the list when you want to. There are no babble inspectors.

9:02 am

apart from Haz on a bad day

9:02 am

lol i know but i like a challenge but i started this to early in the morning my brains going to explode lol

9:02 am

any1 got a 13 letter word

9:03 am

there is none

9:03 am

unsurprisingly, no

9:03 am

Everyone has different levels of vocab and/or patience. Some people like to torture themselves for as long as possible, others use the list earlier.

9:03 am

wat about 12

9:04 am

The longest words today have 8 letters.

9:04 am

oh ok

9:04 am

Just to save you doing a backwards countdown, like an auctioneer desperate to shift some unworthy lot.

9:06 am

ok im not going to the list til atleast 110

9:06 am

Good morning/afternoon, all.

9:06 am

morning

9:07 am

Good morning Scarlet.

9:07 am

Good afternoon, Haz!

9:08 am

And how are you today?

G'morning Scarlet :)

9:09 am

Hello Scarlet

9:09 am

36 left to go. Will leave them for work tonight I think. Bye for now.

bye bye liz

9:09 am

liz - how was Venice - I see your icon!

9:09 am

Well, thank you, Haz. This is one of those odd days with no particular identity...it doesn't feel like a Friday, nor any other day of the week... a suspension of sorts.

9:10 am

Good morning, Nono and ursh, Liz and all others I may have missed.

9:10 am

I know what you mean, Scarlet, some days are like that. Any plans for the weekend?

9:10 am

Venice was wonderful, Haz. Food delicious, weather fantastic, gondoliers fit!!

9:11 am

That's so good to hear, liz. I'm delighted all went well. What a place!

9:11 am

And the little grandchild, what news?

9:11 am

Indeed ! BBL

9:12 am

Okay, speak to you again.

9:12 am

Fortunately, we are taking the weekend to just relax... a departure from the insanity of the last few weeks... visitors from out of state. Do you and your husband have any plans? I thought of you yesterday when it was announced on the news that due to our state's severe drought conditions, there have been many cases of Fescue Foot, and the mortality rate is climbing. Sad.

9:13 am

Wee Jack is actually home, most surprisingly. He was expected to be in hospital at least a month, but once he started to mend he got on with it quick-smart !

9:13 am

My sister's coming tomorrow afternoon and we are to sally forth to buy her a new TV set. That means two bemused and bewildered women at the mercy of a TV salesman.

9:14 am

That's great, liz, they recover so quickly after plunging you into despair. Good news all round.

9:14 am

Hello all

9:14 am

gray and humid here

9:14 am

Haz do you not have an available teenager to take with you

9:14 am

Hello peri.

9:14 am

Hello, dear peri!

morning peri

9:14 am

Mind you even a 10yr old would be a good "buyers guide"

9:15 am

may I please have clues for the 8's

9:15 am

No, ursh, sadly I have no teenagers at home. (Not a sentence many people are known to utter)

9:15 am

Enjoy your session with TV salesman. Hope it's not Currys...you'd know more yourself!

9:15 am

There's an adventure, Haz. Best wishes and calming thoughts to you and you sister!

9:15 am

Back later.

9:15 am

We'll just want a simple TV - nothing too big, nothing too complicated. One where the manual is smaller than War and Peace.

9:16 am

definitely dont go to currys then, they;ll try and sell you a 60" plasma screen

9:16 am

em8/45 - three letters of a precious green stone, followed by fork prongs.

9:16 am

Teenagers are useful with cellphones/tvs/hifi/etc - one can hand new cellphone to him/her and say play with it and then teach me only what "i" need to know

9:16 am

LOL, exactly, ursh.

9:17 am

thanks Haz

9:17 am

We'll go to the shop we always visit - they have a good variety and after sales service.

haz are all tv stations over there being forced to go digital like they are here in the states?

9:19 am

Arent' we supposed to be all-digital by 2009, Nono?

9:19 am

Yes, the country is being switched over gradually with the last analogue signal being cut in 2012.

by 2009 many tvs here will be worthless without some sort of converter

have been putting off buying new tv for the livingroom until the prices come down a bit

9:20 am

It'll probably force her to go digital before she really wanted to. Not that either of have the slightest idea about the whole thing. We need a teenager, you're right.

9:21 am

What staggers us, Nono, is that the upper tier cable channels always have a highly defined image and sound engineering, while the local channels are a mess of transmission quirkiness.

9:21 am

g morning

9:21 am

Good morning harpjane.

i know Scarlet! it really is strange

9:21 am

Good morning, Harpjane... Mother Teresa!

morning harpjane

9:22 am

Right, I'm going to be good and do some housework. See you later.

9:22 am

9:32 am

9:33 am

Oh, Une... it is such a sassy photo... are you still the happy "kid"? LOL

9:33 am

Hi, pabtrek!

9:33 am

9:34 am

I always thought it was

9:48 am

why does Q have a u

9:49 am

guess because it almost always is followed by a u

9:49 am

last week (?) there was a 'u' beside the Qu..really messed us up

However, we have to remember that this is babble where the usual rules of language and spelling are often suspended. It is an alternate universe!

10:10 am

OMG - I was 1 letter out all the time! Ty so much Haz.

10:10 am

thanks, haz!!

10:11 am

Usually, the theme on Fridays is to pick a word from the grid and find a picture to correspond. You'd have to use your imagination with mine at the minute!

ty, must look tath one up

10:11 am

You're welcome (re es7)

10:11 am

or jack benny

10:13 am

hmmmm

10:13 am

What you would plant to get a/5

10:13 am

10:23 am

10:23 am

10:24 am

can anyone clue the in5/10 plz?

10:24 am

10:27 am

another word for ridiculous

10:27 am

aha - got it now! ty.

10:28 am

yw, so glad to help

10:29 am

is there more than one word with a "q" "inside"?

10:32 am

there are 4 q words Une

10:32 am

sorry, don't know about inside

10:32 am

no, i mean words that don't start with a q, like se7

10:33 am

Only one interior Q, Uneaixoise...

10:33 am

but thanks anyway, flosey :-)

10:33 am

thanks, jan

10:33 am

(But I wasted a lot of time trying to make one with the re...)

10:33 am

thanks jan, so I have it

10:33 am

me too

10:34 am

OK finally fireworks--those pr's were too plentiful for my taste...

10:34 am

second em 6,21 please

10:35 am

Plural of the em/5

10:35 am

got that one, need the next em6,21

10:36 am

im going home soon :)

10:36 am

The plural is the second one; there is an earlier em/6 that isn't a plural but related to the em 7 and 8's

10:37 am

That is the one I need, Jan

10:38 am

me6/21 anyone plz?

10:38 am

Do you have the 7 and 8? If not, all three are kind of bio-chemical words...

10:38 am

em 7 = em + vowel + fork

10:39 am

I'm off, later perhaps

10:39 am

Both me6/21's are homonyms. The first one is a palyground name for a cruel person.

10:39 am

Oops, that' "playground."

10:40 am

Thanks Jan and Wyrd for the em's

10:40 am

got that me6 - is the one linked with the me 7/32 I am looking for.

10:41 am

phantom: wristlet

10:41 am

Actually, Sandieangel, it isn't truly a homonym afterall. But is sounds a lot like the first me/6.

10:41 am

there is only one me6 that is the childs name for someone who is nasty, then the plural for the me7

10:42 am

sorry, my mistake

10:42 am

Oh, and the me/7 is the plural, as you've probably guessed.

10:43 am

Yes, got those - is the second set of me6 and 7 I need.

10:44 am

And speaking of playgrounds, it's the next word in the chant "eeny, meeny..."

10:44 am

again, thanks, jan!!

10:44 am

You're quite welcome...

10:46 am

does that second me6 have a double vowel in it?

10:50 am

aha - I got them - ty for the clues.

10:52 am

11:34 am

11:39 am

thanks, dare, but not that far along yet

11:40 am

ok no problem goodluck

11:42 am

either or both of the last pr7/32 words anyone plz?

11:42 am

pr + vowel + se4/4

11:43 am

my last pr7 ends with the hole in the ground mi 4/5

11:43 am

stuck on that middle ne 4!

11:44 am

n + double vowel + middle of the road cons.

11:44 am

the last pr7/32 is more of the pr5/12

11:44 am

ty mtl

11:45 am

ah tx pab, now have 3 pr7 !

11:46 am

yw, so you need one more montreal

11:46 am

ni 5?

11:46 am

pl of ni4

11:47 am

first ni 5, please?

11:48 am

ni + 1st 3 letter of number 6 in spanish

11:48 am

still stuck on the pr7/32 - the one before the word that goes with cons.

11:49 am

pr 7/32 Past, Pr7, future

11:50 am

probably the one i'm missing sandie

11:51 am

I've got the pr7 that means now or a gift - it is the one after that I need.

11:51 am

pr7/32 before the pr** & cons word = pr + personal pronoun + a word meaning dry or arid.

11:52 am

don't know spanish -- just french

11:52 am

and not very well!

11:52 am

i think ni5 also refers to Japanese index like the Dow - the ni*** index

11:53 am

but not sure...

11:53 am

of course -- merci mtl

11:53 am

pr + vowel + coal m***, then plural for the 8

11:53 am

bienvenue nan

11:53 am

pr7..to force something open plus the 2 letters that we hate to start words with on abble

11:54 am

Oh hi all..........

11:54 am

no the Japanese index is the Nikkei the ni is a word meaning of Japanese descent but born in the US or Canada

11:54 am

tx pab - had the 7 - just did not see the plural ...

11:54 am

12:34 pm

that seems like not enough are

12:34 pm

changed my clue icon because I always miss this one on the first run through -- or 2nd, or 3rd!

12:35 pm

Afternoon, all. Lol. Just got the qu7/40. Didn't know it was possible to be more qu5/16.

12:36 pm

what does all this 7/40 anad fractions mean

12:36 pm

I see you're staying in the meat "family" . . . LOL

12:36 pm

wi 7/44:

12:37 pm

the second wi6,7 combo is the same as the first, except change the last two letters to two vowels, then plural

12:37 pm

wi = first 2 letters in word

12:37 pm

7 = number of points in word 44 = number of points in word

12:37 pm

karisma2, the numbers are in relation to the words they represent. 7 40 would mean the word had seven letters with a combined point total of 40. At the bottom of the babble page under the heading "friends of babble" are many helpful links if you're just starting.

12:37 pm

re8.40 and re7.28 anybody?

12:38 pm

thank you, I see them

12:38 pm

yes, just starting

12:38 pm

re + or6/18

12:38 pm

re 8,40 re + the far east

12:38 pm

re + ri5/10

12:38 pm

Karisma, check out those links then, particularily lickety's and angelsongs, I think. It's tricky at first, but very addicting. Have fun!

12:38 pm

1:07 pm

Karisma do you have the se7; se + what you get for flying from the airline fre***** flyer miles

Karisma, the first number is the number of letters in the word, the second number is the point value-- for a four letter word it is the total of the point, for a 5 letter word it is doubled, a 6 letter word tripled, etc, etc

1:09 pm

2:14 pm

crp, I have your cat's twin here....too cute

2:14 pm

really

2:14 pm

polo is 10 years old, got him as a stray from the vets office

2:14 pm

yep..the are identical..well, mine is probably a bit fatter...but he is ten too...

2:15 pm

hi all ! - pr 7 + pr + vowel + "hole in the ground" - pr8 is plural

2:15 pm

we call him Norton (or Norto)

2:15 pm

good picture of your cat, he looks like a real easy going type

2:16 pm

ty montreal

2:16 pm

yw crp

2:16 pm

lol...well that isn't him...that was one I just googled...truly he looks like your polo

2:18 pm

mine is at 16.5 pounds, but that is what most british blues weigh

2:18 pm

ees

2:18 pm

i call him prenisone face

2:18 pm

Hello everybody. How many words today? I keep hitting a wall, thinking that must be it, and then find a bunch more.

2:18 pm

yours would splat mine. my cat is 5lb LOL

2:18 pm

218

2:18 pm

218

2:19 pm

prednisone face

2:19 pm

LOL....well maybe they really are twins!! :)

2:19 pm

Thanks. Got a ways to go after all.

2:19 pm

that is tiny atalante

2:19 pm

yes, Atal, you would have a flat cat

2:19 pm

yup, her mum was a tiiiiiny black burmese, and she's inherited the smallness. we call her minicat

2:20 pm

thats a good name

2:20 pm

she's called silverclaw really. or sily. or psychothing

2:21 pm

my husband calls my cat " just the old gray cat"

2:24 pm

there, Sily back as my icon :)

2:25 pm

pretty cat

2:26 pm

she is! she managed to get her mum's burmese shape and size and aloofness, and her dad's tabby stripes. wonderful combination

2:27 pm

what a sweetie!

2:27 pm

thinking of getting another cat since polo is 10+ years but don't want to upset the boy cat

2:28 pm

maybe a rescue cat, not a kitten? older cats tend to get on better with 2 or 3 year olds than kittens, I think

2:28 pm

try not to do that...upset him...we have 4 here and are definitely paying the price (in fact, i would be happy to ship you one.....)

2:28 pm

lol

2:29 pm

<---- very serius....

2:29 pm

serious, even

2:29 pm

i have never had but one and he has never been around any other cat so it is a big decision

2:30 pm

10 isn't old really, if he isnt too crotchety, he should adjust to a new one

2:30 pm

can you believe i am still stuck on that hole in the ground clue

2:30 pm

yes, if you get two at one time those two tend to do better -- and they tend to entertain eachother

hi

5:00 pm

anyone else in the mood to gripe about bosses. we could have a boss griping fest

5:00 pm

hi, Hurshy

5:00 pm

note how fest is a word, btw

5:00 pm

omg mine is the biggest azz k talk bout politician

5:01 pm

see, then i should not complain, mine's nice but he was driving me crazy today anyawy

5:02 pm

i wish

5:02 pm

off to find some food for dinner, may be back later, bye

5:02 pm

he just has the type of brain where he can't process anything very quickly, and generally he has trouble processing things you say and things on the computer, he has to see them on paper.

5:02 pm

bye bubba tyvm for clues

5:02 pm

hi everyone, some help with the ni5,10 please?

5:02 pm

bye, bubba

5:02 pm

hehe hursh u's woman and there u go

5:02 pm

hi frogface

5:03 pm

and so he likes everything to be very simple, and i'm the opposite, i like every detail to be spelled out

5:03 pm

hi biltong

5:03 pm

hi frog

5:03 pm

trails r always good to save your behind

5:03 pm

sorry, I don't have the ni5/10 either

5:03 pm

mine does not like any figures whatso ever ... believes he understands everything just on gut instinct

5:04 pm

but it's annoying because i feel like i can't win, sometimes i try not to overthink, and just do things, and then it turns out i should have thought more. then other times, i overthink and they tell me not to.

5:04 pm

hi joanne, just three to go now, also need the eo's if anyone can help with them.

5:04 pm

eo + 7 deadly

5:04 pm

then add vowel

5:04 pm

sorry none here

5:05 pm

hello story of my life at work

5:05 pm

eo +si4/4

5:05 pm

thanks hurshy, just the ni5,10 now for my fireworks.

5:05 pm

i don't listen cause i no i'm right in the end ..i mean i make sure i am in the end

5:06 pm

and the WORST part is that when he criticises what you did, he does NOT want to hear any of the reason why you did it, he just doesn't care and can't be bothered to process it, which is maddening because of course you don't want someone to think you're nuts, you want them to know you had a rational reason for what you did

5:07 pm

lmao he tried to call me on in office today and was very pink in the end hehe

5:07 pm

i let him have it

5:07 pm

I hear that... my boss keep saying we should take decisions and then tells us off for taking them ... saying he thinks we should take decisions but 'learn from them' ... in otherwords only make decisions he agrees with ... does not listen to the reasoning at all

5:07 pm

in a semi nice way

5:08 pm

exactly, emamaria

5:08 pm

but if u r gonna start something u better be ready for a good finish

5:08 pm

people need to make up their minds about what they want, and if they want you to decide things, then they need to trust you.

5:09 pm

even if they don't agree with you - and that is the hardest part of delegation but necessary ...

5:09 pm

we're not mind readers!

5:10 pm

hehe told boss that to

5:10 pm

well, so, i sent him two emails at the end of today, one for me and one for him. one where i explained why i had done what i did, cause i couldn't stand not to

5:11 pm

and then one where i just said, i'm sorry and i will do better in the future.

5:11 pm

this is good

5:11 pm

Lol - OK I was going to ask if you had done the wait before sending but you just did the two messages thing

5:12 pm

yes because the first email might annoy him, but you can't stay annoyed at someone after a second message like that, lol

5:12 pm

hurshy dear, there is something you have to realise. there is the real world, and the world of bosses. work as you want to, but then you have to translate that in boss speak. only then will the boss be happy!

5:13 pm

Never underestimate the power of saying sorry it enables you to so so stay in the game ...

5:13 pm

i have customers up my butt because they started too many new things at once ..like inventory and scanning system and heck business as usual even though shut down . so behind can't think straight

5:13 pm

yeah but sometimes you can't translate it, ata

5:14 pm

bosses tend to be politicians

5:14 pm

evening all

5:14 pm

what industry you work in hurshy

5:14 pm

hi mom!!!!!!!

5:14 pm

oh you can. somehow. If I can translate things for my up-in-the-clouds, doesn't know anything about the oil industry but has been an oil industry consultant for 40 years, more interested in NLP than results boss, so can you :)

5:14 pm

like, i had to tell these shippers that a thing HAD to be done monday, and i did, and then he's wanting me to call them like every hour to find out if they've made the arrangements yet, and like, i know from talking to them that they are working on it, and they'll let me know, and there isn't any point in harrassing them, but he doesn't believe that

5:15 pm

Hi Joanne :)

5:15 pm

or maybe babies ..want want want ...

5:15 pm

and hursh what r they saying bout u harassing them cause i no

5:16 pm

i'm there u's on the other end

5:16 pm

so you phone them once, tell them your batshit crazy boss is bugging you, and get them to say everything's under control. then tell boss

5:16 pm

but they never believe it

5:16 pm

and ask them about the weather and the sport (whichever is appropriate) and their family

5:17 pm

they just want u to look like an azz

5:17 pm

then you refuse point blank to phone any more and give boss their number!

5:18 pm

and so then, it was sort of funny, because my theory is also that higher up people tend to get more results when they make phone calls. so yesterday i emailed him and said they had to rent equipment and everything was booked for today, but they were trying for monday (so it's like, what are they gonna do, right, they can either get something or they can't), so i forwarded him the email about that and i did just that ata, i said here is the guy's number in NY if you want to call him and give him hell, bribery, or whatnot.

5:19 pm

so then he says, oh, i won't call, it won't do any good, just wait and follow up tomorrow. lol

5:19 pm

lol

5:20 pm

sooooooo typical

5:20 pm

*grins* always works

5:21 pm

and of course it worked out all fine and dandy today, as i expected. *sits down with air of finality* gripe fest over. he really is a decent guy, we just think differently.

5:21 pm

the second you actually challenge most bosses, they will back down because they ca't be bothered

5:21 pm

my boss keeps saying "" get temps get temps""

5:22 pm

The thing I can not stand is the sulking - been in two long term jobs now with defensive sulking bosses. So much effort taken in just how to raise anything with them ....

5:22 pm

and sorry but there r good temps here in toronto canada but most r wet behind the ears and don't give a crap ..and that's what i get mostly

5:22 pm

1st re6-21 please

5:23 pm

re flower??

5:23 pm

ty joanne

5:24 pm

yvw

5:24 pm

i think i got all the crazy temps here tho ...too funny

5:25 pm

well, now i feel bad, you guys are worse off than i am

5:25 pm

but soo busy i have no time to babysit and i get sooo frustrated

5:26 pm

ohh sorry hursh we r here for ya

5:26 pm

Nah ... we all have our own crosses ...

5:26 pm

no no, don't be sorry

5:26 pm

told boss yesterday tho.. f... i don't get paid enuff for this

5:27 pm

the commiseration has been great. but it has also made me feel that things could be worse!

5:27 pm

who does

5:27 pm

i am so under pressure ..always

5:28 pm

u need to tell boss to communicate exactly what he expects

5:28 pm

it always could be worse ... that is one of murphy's laws isn't it?

5:28 pm

ah well, it's only been six months, i'm sure things will continue to improve as we get to understand more of the way each other works

5:29 pm

better to start now

5:29 pm

my other bosses, the ones who own the company, are great, and reasonable, and i've pleased them 99% of the time, so, that's reassuring.

5:29 pm

that way u's will know what each expects

5:29 pm

i don't have that

5:29 pm

been there nine years

5:30 pm

nip it in the butt now

5:30 pm

better relationship that way i think

5:30 pm

I think Ata was right it is a lot to do with how you communicate your work/decisions rather than what you do - sometimes when you don't have a good fit it is actually learning the language that fits rather than changing the what you do - but is is extremely fustrating

5:30 pm

Hey all :)

5:31 pm

sometimes it's just different personalities and u need to find a common ground

5:31 pm

hi hodag

5:32 pm

howdy 0334

5:32 pm

*extremely* frustrating!

5:33 pm

jo is good hodag

5:33 pm

what is atl?

5:33 pm

speaking of frustrating, seems like this grid is a little on the hardish side?

5:34 pm

my colleague and I once spent 4 hours trying to explain the concept of company debt to our boss, who has worked in financial roles at oil companies all his life. Talk about frustrating!

5:34 pm

LOL HELL YAHHH

5:34 pm

sounds like u may have been talkin to the monkey's huh

5:35 pm

me to 0334 except for the fact we are still getting a lot of rain ever since yesterday!!........:)

5:35 pm

our boss is just away with the fairies sometimes

5:35 pm

which may have understood more

5:35 pm

hodag, i believe joanne0334 was suggesting that "jo" would be a good thing to call her, as opposed to 0334

5:36 pm

lol ty

5:36 pm

see, i am generally quite good at translating

5:36 pm

all righty then........lol

5:36 pm

5:38 pm

5:38 pm

oh yes, I've been grumbling about sirop too!

5:39 pm

if that is the only time you have a very rare relationship

5:39 pm

yes we r soul mates i think ..scary at times too

5:39 pm

Hurshy was going to move just to be near me, and then she changed her mind. I was denied. *sniff*

i'm sorry vi! i'd ruther be near you than not, but it was too scary to move to an expensive apartment without having a job secured

5:58 pm

I know, I know!

5:58 pm

se + fre ***** to be somewhere often

5:58 pm

it's the quips

5:58 pm

EmaMarie, I am so happy you joined up!

5:58 pm

thank you thank you thank you for the rockets

5:58 pm

she's just being polite, vi

5:59 pm

that is the nicest thing anyone has said to me all week . thanx

5:59 pm

yam not!

5:59 pm

Well, fine then, Ata. I don't see her moving to be near you, either!

5:59 pm

now i am off to experience my high school's 50th anniversary (not mine, it has only been 33 years since i graduated)

5:59 pm

*giggles* she wants to though!

5:59 pm

i can beat that! emamaria, you are beautiful beyond compare and brilliant into the bargain.

6:00 pm

IF that's the case, EmaMaria, I can top it: you must be a wonderful, intelligent, kindly, brilliant woman to be here on Babble!

6:00 pm

nite all, see you at the flip! I am sure the lovefest will be in full swing ;~)

6:00 pm

apparently i don't NEED to live near vi, as we share thought patterns.

6:00 pm

Oh wow - can we have this competition every night! lol

6:01 pm

meanwhile i have been here an hour and found only one word. less chat may be in order.

6:02 pm

lol, hursh. Two minds with about a million different thought, some of which happen to coincide.

6:02 pm

LOL

6:02 pm

you mean we're not in the borg collective?

6:03 pm

I'm pretty unborgy, really.

6:03 pm

me too. maybe we're in the anti-borg collective

6:03 pm

who's the babble borg queen?

6:03 pm

harry potter is so helpful. i found the mirror of Erised so i knew to get de6

6:04 pm

haz!

6:04 pm

lol true!

6:04 pm

Well, that's part of why I think I'm not too borgy: I'm not a consistent rebel, either.

6:04 pm

But I am a fan of Victor Borge.

6:05 pm

good thing haz probably would have no idea what it meant if anyone told her she'd been compared to the borg queen

6:05 pm

180and finished for the night...congrats to all for finishing and getting close byeeeeeeeeeeeee

6:05 pm

good night

6:05 pm

Bye, joanne.

6:06 pm

lol yes, she'd have no idea

6:06 pm

Haz couldn't be the borg queen. The borg queen never fools around.

6:06 pm

but it's the BABBLE borg queen, so, you know, it's different

6:07 pm

Well, I suppose that's true.

6:07 pm

ok, i have no 8's. tell me what they start with, and clues for the non-fishy ones, please? :)

6:07 pm

isn't the clues bord(g) the queen

6:07 pm

i assume at least one is re...

6:07 pm

em8 - pl of em7 ending in fork prong

6:08 pm

it8, you can get

6:08 pm

em, it, pr, re

6:08 pm

pr8 - pl of pr7 ending in gold quarry

6:08 pm

8's pr, re, pr

6:08 pm

re8 - you can get

6:09 pm

and it8

6:09 pm

8's -it-

6:09 pm

8's em

6:09 pm

ok i got 3, can i just have the third letter of the re8, because i'm sure i can get it but there are a million things i could think of along the way, with an re

6:09 pm

Goodness, what a cloud of witnesses you're getting, hursh.

6:09 pm

reo

6:10 pm

bible --> dorothy sayers book --> vi in babble chat

6:10 pm

Another murder on the eastbound train?

6:10 pm

trickle down phraseonomics

6:10 pm

(You traced the path!)

6:11 pm

there, that's 8's done, and some 7's along the way too! thanks all!

6:12 pm

everyone thinks that's like, the best christie book, and yet, it's the only one i can never re-read, bc, as i know i've mentioned here before, i can never remotely forget what happens!

6:13 pm

I don't reread much of any Christie books, actually.

6:13 pm

The point of them is the puzzle so once you know it, what's the point?

6:14 pm

if you can forget whodunit, you can enjoy the puzzle again

6:14 pm

and also, some of them create worlds that one wishes to re-enter

6:14 pm

I can understand reading them twice - so you can read it again seeing all the hints you missed

6:15 pm

Time to go throw the babies into the bathwater. I'll be back in a couple of minutes.

6:15 pm

however, sayers is much more amenable to re-reading, because so much MORE of the enjoyment from her mysteries is the world and the characters and such.

6:15 pm

(Good point, Ata.)

6:16 pm

i feel like being around lord peter more often than i feel like being around poirot. and anyway, sayers was the better writer by at least double.

6:16 pm

and if a book is one of my favourites, I'll reread it and reread it even when I can quote vast swathes of it

6:17 pm

meeeee too. you just get cravings to live with some favorite characters for a while.

6:17 pm

its like wearing an old comfy jumper in winter. it just makes you smile

6:17 pm

as i often say, you don't eat an apple and say, mmm, that was good, i never want another apple, give me a different fruit every day!

6:18 pm

i almost never reread a book

6:18 pm

we could pontificate for hours on the glories of re-reading, couldn't we, ata? lol

6:18 pm

there are, however, only 2 books I've ever read where I've finished and immediately turned back to the beginning because I couldn't bear to finish reading them

6:18 pm

which which?

6:19 pm

well that is true - I have cried because a book was finished

6:19 pm

i was tempted to with HP7 but it was so long, so i only immediately re-read certain bits.

6:19 pm

Silmarillion of course! And one of China Miéville's books called "The Scar". That was a strange experience, I just did not want to leave that world. I just couldn;t

6:20 pm

that is why i love series of books. you can stay in the world longer without repeating the same story right away.

6:21 pm

oh yes :)

6:21 pm

marty is VERY relieved that it is friday night.

6:22 pm

I'm sure! Cinder and Mitten too!

6:22 pm

i find that scary sometimes - I read difficult books because I never wanted to be somewhere else too much ..

6:22 pm

like wanting to be too thin, too happy, too rich

6:23 pm

oh I love that feeling when 3 hours passes by and you have no clue because you're so deeply in a book

6:24 pm

marty particularly though, because he sort of gets satisfied over the weekend and then as the week goes by, he gets more and more desperate every night. WHY were you away all day AGAIN, momma?

6:24 pm

atalante, every time three hours passes by with me in a book, i am late for somewhere. that feeling, for me, is panic.

6:24 pm

well, you guys and this game aare too much for me

6:24 pm

i think i actually literally believe that time does not pass when i'm reading. or at least, that it shouldn't.

6:25 pm

I did that with "Gaudy Night," ata.

6:25 pm

it maketh no sense to me, that time passes during reading.

6:25 pm

I agree

6:25 pm

it is the best feeling - this is why I occasionally fear it

6:26 pm

vi, did i tell you, when i was at oxford on my england trip, i am SURE i saw the very spot in the river where harriet first realized she loved peter

6:26 pm

No, you didn't mention it. That's so cool!

6:26 pm

i was like, that's it!

6:27 pm

Were there ducks?

6:27 pm

isnt oxford wonderful :)

6:27 pm

I've never been. =(

6:27 pm

i don't remember if there were ducks. i remember the trees though, and that there were people who did not understand how to punt.

6:27 pm

well it is OK - but Liverpool is fab...

6:27 pm

also, there was a crew shell named Sir Osis of the River - i'm sure i told you that.

6:28 pm

yes, i felt i could have stayed at oxford forever, ata.

6:28 pm

You might be slighly biased, EmaMaria! =)

6:28 pm

I do like Liverpool, but I love Oxford

6:28 pm

That's funny. It's so much more fun to name inanimate objects than sentient beings.

6:29 pm

well, i think the main trouble with naming sentient beings is that you do it when you don't know what they're like yet.

6:30 pm

dratted birth certificates and social security cards

6:30 pm

True. But also "Ima Hogg" doubless seems a lot less clever when you're sentient.

6:30 pm

well, that too.

6:30 pm

but i enjoyed naming my cats, and they are semi-sentient

6:31 pm

marty was so obviously martish

6:31 pm

Yes, but my cat doesn't get her feelings hurt at all, even when I call her "You big, fat, lazy beast" and such.

6:31 pm

oh my! i never say such things to my cats.

6:32 pm

Well, now that we have fully sentient creatures in the house, we have tried not to use such language! lol

6:32 pm

1st mi5-12 please

6:32 pm

lol

6:32 pm

But before that we verbally abused the cat regularly.

6:32 pm

are you going to be like my mom ... "we don't say 'hate'" ... during sibling fights?

6:32 pm

mi5/12 - latin pl of mi4/5

6:33 pm

I don't know. I'll have to wait until they try it!

6:33 pm

we also were not allowed to say, "butthead"

6:33 pm

I think I can safely say that I will discourage that one, anyway!

6:34 pm

aw, but it's such a fun word

6:34 pm

Well, I am generally opposed to fun, of course.

6:34 pm

sorry - I am proudly biased but also now with company - love to you all ..

6:34 pm

oh right, you're a mom, so you have to be

6:34 pm

It's my best friends' favorite word I think, though.

6:35 pm

Goodbye, EmaMaria.

6:35 pm

they will make up their own "swear" words anyway

6:36 pm

i have never had a favorite word, per se. i mean, i suppose everyone has words that they use a lot. but i mean a favorite word like you really just love it. i have had short-term favorites but no clear winner. but now i think i may have actually found it.

6:36 pm

marty?

6:36 pm

no

6:36 pm

I'm sure they will find all sorts of ingenious ways to torment me, the brilliant little monsters.

6:36 pm

fireworks, ty for the mi clue

6:37 pm

One of my favorites is "clarity." I just love the way it sounds. And "worm," which is so wonderfully wormy.

6:37 pm

So, what is it then, hursh?

6:37 pm

it's really random, you're going to think it's weird... but i think my all time favorite word may be... sixpence.

6:38 pm

thats a very nice word

6:38 pm

its very satisfying

6:38 pm

and you can sing a song of it

6:38 pm

or you can have it and be none the richer

6:38 pm

It's good for singing a song of.

6:39 pm

I like words like moonshine

6:39 pm

You type faster than me, hurshy!

6:39 pm

and it would get you lots of points if you had a handy E to play it off of in scrabble

6:39 pm

meep meep

6:40 pm

Here's a really excellent phrase: moonlit macadam. I want to name a female detective that.

6:40 pm

dang it, there are so many fabulous words, i guess that is why we love word games.

6:40 pm

We get so drunk on words that we are seldom really sober?

6:40 pm

i like "och! aye. imph'm."

6:41 pm

those scots, what a riot

6:41 pm

Only if they all come together, though. lol

6:41 pm

my favourite babblet is netop. I like that word

6:41 pm

and on that note, I'm off to bed to gaze at the moon-shine

6:41 pm

s'long as you aren't drinking it

6:41 pm

Goodnight, Ata bright.

6:42 pm

oh no :) just watching it through the window!

6:42 pm

you know what vi said about getting drunk on words

6:42 pm

night my dears!

6:42 pm

night!

6:42 pm

And think of my poor cat's real name: Nightshade.

6:44 pm

as cast by the moonshine, I mean.

6:44 pm

(forgot to say, my really favourite word is a proper noun - there's a genus of fish called Abudefduf)

6:45 pm

That's excellent.

6:46 pm

isn't it! love the way it sounds and reads. really gone now :)

6:47 pm

Oh, me too. Must administer toothbrushings, bedtime readings, and tuck-ins.

7:01 pm

pr8 please?

7:03 pm

it's a plural of the one above mary

7:04 pm

that would help if I had the one above it

7:04 pm

LOL sorry

7:05 pm

let me see if I can clue it

7:05 pm

new to this

7:05 pm

thx praise

7:05 pm

pr8 =' pr4/6 & proper' + 'not yours but ****'.

7:05 pm

pr+ 3rd vowel + not yours

7:05 pm

+ plural

7:05 pm

pr7 & 8.

7:06 pm

I'll get my act together in a minute. LOL

7:06 pm

ty jac

7:06 pm

I was getting there

7:06 pm

slow but sure!! LOL

7:06 pm

ty jacula & priase

7:06 pm

yw

7:07 pm

tks, jac & p2h -- every little clue helps!

7:07 pm

good grief still have 94 to find

7:07 pm

y/w, Mary. I'll let you do the next one, praise.:)

7:08 pm

LOL jac

7:10 pm

mom23 - Don't forget it's still Friday icon day in some parts of the world. My icon is a clue and you will see what if you click on my bio.

7:12 pm

good clue on your bio, jacula. I had all but one

7:13 pm

yeah I wish that you had been on here earlier when I was struggling with those words jac! :)

7:14 pm

praise - Sorry, I was out watcing our local amateur dramatic group do their latest play.

7:14 pm

Maybe I should have taken my laptop along? LOL

7:14 pm

cool--what did they perform?

7:15 pm

Alan Ayckbourn's 'Season's Greetings'.

7:15 pm

hmm don't think that I have heard of that one

7:16 pm

Google it.

7:16 pm

hope that it was a good time

7:16 pm

It was very funny.

7:18 pm

sounds like it

7:18 pm

sorry to say that I don't get to many plays and most of them are musicals

7:19 pm

Our local group tries to do 2 plays a year.

7:19 pm

Musicals are fun, too.

7:19 pm

we have a local theater group here too

7:20 pm

last one that I saw there was "the Sound of Music"

7:20 pm

Last live musical I saw was 'South Pacific' with Rusty Lee playing 'Bloody Mary'. It was v. good.

7:20 pm

Have seen that one too

7:20 pm

Mind you, if you are not from UK you probably won't have heard of Rusty Lee. LOL

7:21 pm

but it was a high school group performance

7:21 pm

sorry I am in Ohio here

7:21 pm

i was in a production of Anything Goes! with a local theatre group this past spring. Hello.

7:21 pm

good for you

7:22 pm

dcs - you're braver than me! I get stage fright and my voice refuses to come out, or comes out too loud.

hi, i saw the play wicked over the summer when the national tour came to philadelphia

7:22 pm

last musical I was in was "Lil Abner" when I was in high school!!

7:22 pm

long time ago

7:22 pm

how, was it angel? I missid when it was here.

7:22 pm

Hi angelina. I don't think I know that play. Must look it up.

it was great

i think it might be the best musical i've ever seen

7:23 pm

anyone seen hursh?

it's the story of the wicked witch from the wizard of oz

7:23 pm

i know the music from it is very popular.

7:23 pm

she was on earlier

7:23 pm

dcs - It was a long time ago when I got stage fright, too. LOL. Even public speaking makes me sweat, unless it's speaking up at a meeting or something. I'm okay as long as 'the spotlight' isn't on me, so to speak.

7:24 pm

she and i were playing scrabble, or were about to, and she disappeared

7:24 pm

that's not unusual, jacula, happily, for most people it doesn't come up much.

7:24 pm

Hi, feather. Maybe her internet connection zapped?

7:25 pm

that's what i was wondering

i don't like public speaking either even though i'm a teacher, but used to speaking in front of kids

7:25 pm

hmm, gonna check the weather map

7:25 pm

dcs - they do say the 'best players' almost die of stage fright before they go on.

7:25 pm

angelina, i was saying the exact same thing at open house

lol

7:25 pm

i can speak to a room full of kids, or speak one on one with parents, but a room full of parents...nuh uh!

that's the truth

7:26 pm

good point, jacula

7:26 pm

we finally got a slight bit of rain today, after 38 days without. We may get some more up to mignight local time, hopefully.

7:26 pm

Maybe the adrenalin makes for a better performance... if the voice can be coaxed out of the mouth.

7:27 pm

mayhap, though my experience on stage is that the lights are so blinging, that the audience almost doesn't matter.

7:28 pm

The worst ti5/12 I've had in the spotlight for cold sweats were poetry readings, when asked to read/perform my own stuff. It's like reading your diary out!

7:29 pm

dcs - That's just what one the our local company actresses said to me tonight...' The lights are blinding and, anyway, without my glasses on, I can't see a thing out there'.

7:29 pm

i started reading my poetry at the annual poetry service at my church, which helped with feeling less exposed with general readings, since it was a familiar group.

7:30 pm

play i was in last year, on of the actress had to be shown to her etry spot to get on stage, she did alright on, then some one met her to lead her back to the green room.

7:31 pm

I could cope with it at poetry workshops in schools but you try doing it at a Writers' Conference; all those other writers. EEK! Having said that, a friend of mine (now passed on) who regularly had to give talks at conferences since she was a best-selling author, often used to drag me up on stage bodily with her to hold her hand and stop her shaking.

7:32 pm

huh. Nice that you had that calming effect for her. :)

7:32 pm

LOL, dcs. I'd be the same. Probably trip over the props or something.:(

7:33 pm

hello all

7:33 pm

darn jac since you said that about clues no one has asked!!

7:33 pm

LOL

7:33 pm

Yes, dcs... though, since I am not a household name, I could see the conference newbies thinking, 'Who the heck's that?' LOL

7:33 pm

timid

7:33 pm

hi karisma

7:34 pm

karisma - nope, timid isn't in the grid.

7:34 pm

having a hard time learning this

7:34 pm

eh, let them wonder.

7:34 pm

eh, let them wonder.

7:34 pm

Hi again everyone

7:34 pm

hi, mom. is that you in the picture?

7:34 pm

it gets easier karisma

7:34 pm

praise - Oh dear!

7:35 pm

Hi Dcs, no it is my mom

7:35 pm

i have 70 words, and I have been back and forth all day

7:35 pm

when she was 18

7:35 pm

beautiful!

7:35 pm

pretty mom mom

7:35 pm

49-year-olds don't have Marcel waves, Dcs. LOL. It's her Mum.

7:35 pm

today's puzzle has been rather a challenge, karisma.

7:35 pm

{{Ren}}} hello

7:35 pm

karisma do you use the babble clues?

7:35 pm

this one is harder

7:35 pm

good point, jacula. :)

7:36 pm

thank you for the compliment on my mom

7:36 pm

karisma, i use Lickety's Babble Clues list for getting throug the grid most nights.

7:36 pm

I could only hope to be that pretty

7:36 pm

7:46 pm

i was gonna take the missus to the cinema tomorrow to see black sheep but it isnt on in my area

7:46 pm

7:46 pm

Nut - don't talk about cutting nuts. I made Greek Baklava a couple of days ago. I'm glad I've got a nut chopping gadget but I sure wish I'd bought shelled pistachios! What a tedious job!

7:47 pm

i guess then jac, that you are....nuts

7:47 pm

Ren - now se4 the photos. Yu can both do plie and the splits.

7:47 pm

Jacula, did your mum enjoy her Baklava, I remember you saying you were going to take her some.

7:48 pm

Hi doxy. Fine for me, since I finished it hours ago. LOL

8:14 pm

hi doxy. it's kind of a bear.

i thinks it's tough too

8:15 pm

sorry to hear that. I guess I will try my best.

8:16 pm

se 6/21, the second?

8:16 pm

I didn't find finding the words in the grid painful, but the ti4 they took to register was... there were glitches on the site for those of in UK during our middle of the day ti4.

8:16 pm

it was my last 20 or so that i wanted to swear.

I hope it gets better, Hursh! And, hi!

8:20 pm

Hello Hurshy!How are you doing? Welcome to the grid

8:20 pm

I sat and watched the 3-part child snatch drama 'Torn' last night (1st 2 parts) and today (last part).

8:20 pm

lol pam

8:20 pm

But I'd recorded those on SKy+ ages ago.

8:20 pm

Jellen, posted mail + In My Opinion

8:21 pm

ty, lbd

8:21 pm

se7/32 sounds like old currency which begins 'ce'. Failing that, try se4/4 (mailed) + personal pronoun + modus operandii.

8:22 pm

Hurshy, change the third letter of the previous 6/21 to the third consonant.

8:22 pm

wow, jac--would have thought that that word began with a c....

8:22 pm

pam - I said that. LOL.

8:23 pm

starst with an S in ladino, at minimum, so other Latin languages may also.

8:23 pm

yes, but it bore repeating, LOL

8:23 pm

that ... is... not working

8:23 pm

ah she means third vowel!

8:23 pm

dcs - Yes. Some do 'c' , others do 's'.

8:23 pm

It's tagalog, according to the dictionary

8:24 pm

Ooh, I'm sorry, Hurshy.

8:24 pm

sok i like it better when i have to work for it

8:24 pm

I take it you've all got se7/40 (which uses the 5 point tile that is not a w?

8:24 pm

in fact everyone should purposely mess up my clues in future. except not tonight when i'm worried my power could go out again.

8:25 pm

i have it now, ty, jac

8:25 pm

did your power go out due to the storm, hursh?

8:25 pm

yes, for an hour

8:25 pm

hi all

8:25 pm

y/w, dcs.

8:25 pm

my mom was getting ready to finish my grid with me over the phone when it came back

8:26 pm

8:27 pm

I was about to offer Haz same if her comuter had been in the shop for much longer, when she was last forced away from us.

9:15 pm

Hi, tyger

hey, dc

hi jellen, jac

9:16 pm

dc what do you mean by false ending

9:16 pm

we don't use that on7 word in North America, jac, it's thrown a number of us for a loop.

actually, not that long. I was here until the filp last nite

9:16 pm

an7 word, rather

9:16 pm

Something like that, tyger. LOL.

9:16 pm

The old brain cells are failing.

ty jell

9:17 pm

rururocks,I do not remember what time I bagged out

'Life's a sh*t and then you die,' apparently. I'm determined to prove that is wrong.

9:19 pm

9:19 pm

nite, angelina

ty

9:20 pm

I may have bagged out early, but at least I did finish the grid,which I WON'T accomplish tonite rururocks!

9:20 pm

ee?

I believe the first syllable sounds like that joint in the middle of the leg, and the second one like "I ***, old chap"

9:20 pm

The ee5/10 word means scary or strange LuwandaHL

9:21 pm

ee5 - strange

9:21 pm

i can't belive i missed it!!!

9:22 pm

now for em's

Lu, this puzzle drove me nuts. I kept missing words that were obvious in retrospect

9:22 pm

de 6/21 the first one

9:22 pm

i finally gave up and went to the list

one who refused to accept, ru, a verb, 2nd person, present tense

9:23 pm

He de**** everything, though we know he's guilty.

one who says "it didn't happen"

9:24 pm

tyvm

9:24 pm

Well I am bagging out early again tonight with 28 left

are you "wiped out" Min?

9:25 pm

I can only imagine that UK folks are politcally correct around ni5/10 (a word nmot heard or used here in UK) because no one is any longer allowed to have a go at anyone about 'The War' (whichever one it was). I hate the Japs that condemned my Godfather to a long, slow death after WW2, I also hate the Germans who killed generation upon generation of Jews and others who di not fit in with 'The Plan for Perfexct People'. However, I don't hate those who had no choice in these matters. It only takes one or two egotists to start a War... maybe those who can't help rising to 'under bridge baiters' might see this one day.

there's enough time, if you've enough stamina :)

9:25 pm

the longer i look at the grid, the stranger perfectly normal words look

you're right, Jac

9:26 pm

Hi, girlie

9:26 pm

de5/14

9:26 pm

Hi Jellen

9:26 pm

Everyone of every race, creed or colour is just a human being. Until they prove otherwise, let's not condemn.

9:26 pm

Fabric jeans are made of, ruru

I think we all have those days, girlie :)

blue stuff, usually, ruru

9:27 pm

girlie - Happens to us all. Don't worry about it.

that was one of the words that made me want to beat my head against the keyboaard, once I had it

9:28 pm

tx had it but had it out of order on my page

9:28 pm

too many de 4/5's

ROFL, ruru

entirely too many of them

9:29 pm

speaking of de, i just changed my icon

9:29 pm

de4/5s are not hard word.

9:29 pm

I tend to agree with what you said, jac, and I am sure there are people, in say, Darfur, who are only alive because they turned away--but, how many heads can turn away before they all roll?

but no worse than the re or se

9:30 pm

pam - I don't know.

9:30 pm

i agree pam. i just returned from taking my father to his wwII ship reunion

hello babblers

last pr 5/14 and pr 7/32

please

fewer every year, right Lu? :(

9:30 pm

Hi, hk

9:30 pm

eo 5/10?

hey, HK

9:30 pm

em's are driving me nuts

heya jell

hi helen

9:31 pm

As for the not condemning, Pam... I wasn't referring to the Holocaust.

hi tyger

9:31 pm

em are not.....

9:31 pm

Yes, I'm wiped out!When my job was 5 minutes away I was able to stay up for the flip single nite.Now that I commute over an hour, I am NEVER up for that flip!

9:31 pm

it's something that haunts me, jac. Niemoller said it so well... when they come for me, who will be there? I am not condemning, but wondering...

hiya TO!

the words are based on the preceding pr5/12, and are comparatives

9:31 pm

fofl

9:31 pm

Hope your dad enjoyed, luw!

9:31 pm

eo clue anyone?

9:32 pm

happy friday everyone!

9:32 pm

I know, Jac, and neither am I--there have been many holocausts, though--Rwanda and Darfur two of the more recent...

hiya natl

9:32 pm

Hello helenkeller! How are you? Welcome to the grid!

9:32 pm

you too natlt

9:32 pm

hi helen

9:32 pm

Hello NatLT! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!

the laast 3 words are when you do something wrong, according to a Holy Book, ruru

hello {{{{jacs}}} & {{{{pam}}}} - (involved in deep discussion)

9:32 pm

pr + in my opinion

heya minver, luw

thank you for the clues and the chat. a storm is coming and i have to go. see you tomorrow

9:33 pm

Hi, hk!

9:33 pm

Goodnight to my fellow babblers!I'll see you tomorrow

9:33 pm

Night, TO!

nite, Owl

9:33 pm

I cannnot believe that people did nto know. I've talked to quite a few people who were children that we now know lived near to 'camps' at the time. They didn't know, for sure, just made friends with kids through the wi4/8. But their parents must've known; told them to stay away!

9:33 pm

nite min

nite, Min

9:33 pm

bye min

9:33 pm

oh I hate the biblical clues

sorry. "All have ***ned & come short..."

9:34 pm

what people do and do not know to stay alive is unfathomable, jac...

It's that or give you chemistry clues that I'd have to go to a dictionary for

9:34 pm

pr + personal pronoun + withered

what do you prefer? :P

that was faster

9:35 pm

Anyway, no point in going on about the past.

9:35 pm

em7 and 8

9:36 pm

Unles it makes sure it never hapens again in the future. But, knowing mankind's penchant for war.. no guarantees.

9:36 pm

the second to last pr7?

9:36 pm

or the 5's or 6's. they are driving me and my monkeys crazy

9:36 pm

No, no guarantees... the wars and the genocides are ongoing...

if you've got em4/5 above them, Lu, drop the last letter, and substitute "*** can" for the 6, and a vowel for the 7

9:37 pm

hopefully our children will be better

9:37 pm

Fireworks

9:37 pm

congrats, doxy!

9:37 pm

yay doxie

9:37 pm

pam - I guess nothing anyone says will stop that.

9:37 pm

Congrats, doxy!!

"hope springs eternal," Lu

congrats, doxy

9:38 pm

I know Jac, until we all say the same thing 8-) there is no way to peace, peace is the way...

9:38 pm

ty tyger I finally saw it

9:38 pm

Need some food and drink. See you all later!

that's a relief :)

bye jelly

next time maybe I'll open dictionary.com :)

9:39 pm

I love this Ben Franklin quote: Never has there been a good war or a bad peace

later, Jellen

9:39 pm

Later, jellen

9:39 pm

Luw - if anything, my kids seem more 'warlike' than me and their Dad, and stepdad. We are getting mightly peed off with the present government in UK, even thinking of leaving for other shores due to all the 1984 stuff going on... but our kids seem to want to fight to preserve our country's nationality.

Pam, there's some truth to that, but not Chamberlain-style

9:40 pm

Fireworks!

Jac, where would you go? Antipodes?

congrats, Merk

9:40 pm

yes, not chamberlain style.....

9:41 pm

thanks a bushel tiger

9:41 pm

Fireworks!

you're welcome, Lu

yay for merk !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

9:41 pm

The 1984 stuff is pervasive. and the rationalizations and justifications reek

9:41 pm

the pr7 that comes right before "not amateurs"? please?

I wasn't sure how good the clues were, but it was all I could come up with fast

9:41 pm

Yger - New Zealand, I think, or France.

9:41 pm

ty

9:41 pm

See you tomorrow

9:42 pm

My two kids do have uni studies of history and politics behind them.

next 2 last pr 7/32 plz

9:42 pm

cameron that's the one I'm looking for too

9:42 pm

it 7 /32?

9:43 pm

look at our leaders!! when i was in DC with my father, i decided our leaders need to visit all the monuments and read what our forfathers wrote. they seem to have forgotten or don't care

Jane, yours isn't in the dictionary - last 4 letters are same as se4/4 following se 7/40

it7/32 is built on it4/5, Brit-style verb

9:44 pm

ruru, in an audit all expenses have to be it*****

9:44 pm

I am sorry, luw, but I am not sure our current so-called leader seems to have little ability to read and quote from his readings...

good one, Jane

9:44 pm

thanks, still don't have that pr7 tho

9:45 pm

that was the IT everyone was talking about last night...jeez I feel so dumb

9:45 pm

LOL. When we first got together, me and my kids' Dad, that is... he was an HGV mechanics apprentice and I was a schoolgirl. (And published writer. LOL) We used to sit up late over a glass of wi4 at ti5 and discuss life and politics etc., sometimes with our babes in our arms. But, neither of us were very political animals, other than talking about it.

9:45 pm

i'm still on the em's

9:46 pm

Hmm... they absorbed and built on, I guess.

Jane, 3 syllables - snake letter, 2 vowels, and consonant

oops, forgot there's a vowel before the snake letter

9:46 pm

i'm afraid your right pam

9:47 pm

BTW, I wasn't a schoolgirl when we had the babes. I was 27 when 1st was born! Almot 30 when 2nd came along.

9:47 pm

you're - i spelled it like our leader might have

but there are 5 words in a row, all based on the pr4/5

all about words, except for the first

when someone writes or talks on and on, sometimes we say they're ****ing on and on

especially when it's dull

9:49 pm

am new - having trouble following referencing and can't work it out - would someone explain for example 'pr4/5' - thanks

word starts with pr, has four letters, and is worth 5 points

9:50 pm

done with em's. whew!! Vthat took a lot of monkeying

congrats, Lu

9:50 pm

the last wi6?

welcome, booted

9:50 pm

9:52 pm

LOLOLOLOL, jac

9:58 pm

in5?

I've got a post to writie tonight, and I think I need a nap first

9:58 pm

ty helen---that's the biggest I' ve tackled.

9:59 pm

Actually, it was quite funny earlier... daughter came downstairs after having had my BIG Collins dictionary perched on her leg as she read through her uni textbooks (1st year). She'd cut off her circulation with the heavy book and had got pins and needles in her leg by the time she'd come down, grabbed a snack and a drink and got to bottom of stairs ready to go up again. I rubbed the ailing leg but I still had to LOL at her dragging it up the 13 stairs behind her.

in5/10 means silly - "gone ** an instant" + vowel

dilly, good on you - it's a toughie, i'm getting stuck here with 86 to go still

10:00 pm

thanks

10:00 pm

oh, crud. I asterisked the wrong word - definitely time for me to go! :(

10:01 pm

good night guys, maybe Jac will stick around to give clues?

10:01 pm

Hey, tyger - we're all human.

10:02 pm

all too! gone. seeyas tomorrow, I hope

10:02 pm

We have lives, worries, kids, etc. Grid's fun though.

10:03 pm

"you want to know something, spock? everybody's human."

10:03 pm

"i find that remark... insulting."

10:03 pm

hursh - LOL - Cn't tell you how many times I've told my son that.

10:03 pm

LOLOL

10:04 pm

well if he was spock, he'd find it insulting.

10:04 pm

But he IS human. Only hows me that though, LOL.

10:04 pm

and you'd be married to sarek.

10:04 pm

hursh just helped me find the ne4/5 word - made me think of yesterdays firewords video - lol

10:04 pm

:O

10:04 pm

Oh, and his sister, if I'm not around.

10:06 pm

The human condition is uncurable, Hursh unless the world blows up, or is blown up. Both of which are distinct possiblities.

10:07 pm

Humans? Who'd have, eh? As Spock might say if his grammar failed him. We are so fey! Not logical!

10:07 pm

Jac -- that just reminds me of the scene from Blake's 7 when they ask Orac to give the prognosis on a wounded member of the group and its response is "Terminal"

10:07 pm

hi all

10:07 pm

i need a new emoticon for dizziness

10:07 pm

I guessincurable would have been the corect word, but you all know what I meant.

10:08 pm

Hi, Wolfie.

10:08 pm

And then goes on to explain that since all humans must eventually die, they are inherently afflicted with a terminal circumstance

10:08 pm

please everyone stop blathering and just give clues

10:08 pm

hey gw!

10:08 pm

hiya tim

10:10 pm

10:10 pm

Hell - shurrup! You sound like a troll.

10:10 pm

10:11 pm

timhorton -- you clame to be bad at clues, but you have helped me out a time or two :-)

10:11 pm

10:11 pm

And, before nut comes back in here saying trolls are amusing and she wants to do an interview with one, let me just say that they are NOT amusing, should NOT bie given any attention whatsoever and it's time we had moderators on this site.

a new 2nd hand store opened near my house (well, the only one near my house actually) anyway they sent me a 1/2 off coupon so i went to check it out & got me a beautiful king sized quilt in pink & green just the colors i was looking for

10:30 pm

i have NO me's :(

10:30 pm

there are two me6 and 7--the first one is a playground insult beginning with me4/5

10:30 pm

10:30 pm

10:30 pm

me7/32 what a bunch of me***** (nasty people)

10:30 pm

for - get this: $7 - it's from 'the company store' which has kind pricey stuff, & this piece has hand quilting on it - such a steal! :)

10:31 pm

me6/7--someone not nice to you, the plural

10:31 pm

second ones

10:31 pm

second me6 and 7 is identical--just change the second vowel

10:32 pm

ty, ty, ty!!!!

10:32 pm

me4/5 to distribute or apportion

10:32 pm

yw!

10:32 pm

10:32 pm

10:33 pm

it7 is to make a list, beginning with it4/5

10:33 pm

10:37 pm

see my clue at 10:31

10:38 pm

I'll try my schholmarm, 'SHOVE OVER!' tone first. Hope I dn't have to resort to trying to sove him over to his own side with my bum - He's 6' 2", I'm just under 5' 2" and he's heavier than me. The manoeuvr I mentioned means I have to brace one handd on the bed base, one on the bedside unit bnd then shove with all my mgiht, which kinda wakes me up.

10:38 pm

to be cruel is to be me 6/21 and then if you were to call someone this you would say the person was a me****. last two letters vowels. third letter vowel as well.

10:38 pm

ty, une

10:38 pm

10:38 pm
