flip
cute picture, jilli
you guys know, that one day we are going to pay for all these 100 grids & get hit with something like a 750
flop
ty jes :)
hi y'all
jac, do you know about tinyurl?
A bit of it might have been for Lizzie II but most of it was for Fredrick Bulsara.
jilli - yes.
how big is this grid
Just not been using it tonight. Sorry, jilli. Slap hand!
117, 10s
117
left column grey
for the record: foggle and soggle are not words and toggle is a phantom. But, i'm guessing we've all tried those already.
fo
not to mention hottle and fattle---
I tried glog but although it's aq great after-ski drink it's not a word ( although I guess it has 2 Gs at the end)
fum, granny
lol mir
another littlie!
isn't amist a foglet?
they looked so promising, corps
oh I miss the 335 days
wb, mrp! :D
Oh, just realised flip has come around and so rampant clue flinging will follow. Will bow out now, you all know I hate that stuff!
hey jilli, did you see csi miami today?
by jac
no joso -- why?
MRP - sent youmy list of babble firework themes. Hope you got it! Don't necessarily play it in order, LOL.
fi 7--has that been called?
they had the most twisted set of Canadien tourists featured on the show
nothing has been called so far, miranda
Miranda--nope, yours was the first 7 to be called
i don't think anything has been called yet mir
O gawd, joso -- but I don't watch that show anyway
morning all
Well, that's a first for me!
wtg miranda!
yea! well, thanks for that fi7 miranda!
Hi ishult
pity, I'd have liked to get annother Canadiens view
hi lshult
ni7/40, hi everyone :)
I don't watch hockey either, joso :(
Hi cat
hi Cat
me nether
hi jilli!
stalled at 44
hi cat
hi joso!
39 here--33 of which are 4 letters :(
poor you, carra -- I have 13
thanks for the ni, cat--like the fi
hi robespierre
you're welcome miranda
Howdy, Jilli!
bi 6
thanks nan!
ty, nan
ho6
dc, how can you be so good at this on so little sleep?
years of bad sleep hygiene
heh
gl 6
danke, carra
go7/44, monkey found it, new word for me
Thanks, Cat--I just monkeyed it, too. Never heard it before. Only 1 more 7 out there.
Miranda, lo7/44? was that called?
raspberries are so good cant get enough lol
Not that I know of--I'm looking, thanks
the g's are very busy tonight!
my 25 words are all 4s and 5s
i have 6*6 and 2*7 of my 42
i've got 53 words, jilli, and all but 2 of them are 4s and 5s ;)
raspberries are too expensive now and don't keep
i feel like my brain is set to 'off' tonight
ditto, HK
all but one of the 7's is a plural of a 6
Me too...My rationalization is that my brain cells are reserving themselves for the big grid that we know is coming one of these days...
sadly, the 2 6's i have don't get pluralized...
same here jes!
is that kenny chesney, cat?
Clues are up!
is it too early to give a somewhat clue on the 8's?
what 8s?
danke Lickety
oops, mean 7's
muchas gracias, lickety! nuestro heroe :)
thankee lickety!
Oh thanks, Lickety -- too tired to struggle
yes dc, it is!
i keep wanting gestalt
Cat, I wouldn't mind a clue, as long as it's OK with everyone else
stuck at 75 -- thanks lickety
ok with me, but if nan is here it won't be for her
oh, my alertness: the 500g of 70% chocolate helps, too :)
I'm still looking for the lo 7--I could give you a list of all the words its not--
I would only tell you that they all have a certain letter in common, thats all, might give you a place to start looking
Oooh!! I finally found one of the 7s!
cat, if they are lo7 they have 2 letters in common -- L and O. lol
I think I know what the letter is, cat--I've been making some great non-words using it
LOL jilli!
lo7 and go7, if i recall
oh, i quit, seemingly stuck forever at 60
good nite everyone :)
fi 7 if not called
sweet dreams, hk!
ty, nan!
bye hk!

HI Jess

late flip!
:P drb
hi lady
bienvenida, fran
hi dc!
Hi Fran!
hi cat!
congrats drb
yay doc!
Hi Fran
what pretty wolf, lady! what variety is it?
hi infernal!
i sure hope traffic is nice come morning. i will be so tired the last thing i want is 2 hours going home. Between tired and time, that would be too much like HS again.
*crossing my fingers for dc's no traffic commute*
a no-traffic commute on a non-holiday weekday is a RARE RARE event here. Hell, a no-traffic weekend is a RARE event here.
I think its a German Timber wolf
*crossing my fingers for dc's nice traffic commute*
*!* ta da *!*
quite unlike any we have here in NA
yay nan!!
My Friend my have just helped a lass all the way on the otherside of the world
congrats nan
hi joso!
how'd you do that infernal?
tomorrow's my volunteer day, so I'm going to hit the sack -- see you tomorrow :)
hi fran
night nan!
ok. brain doesn't do long words at night. down to 6 but they're all hiding from me!
wtg jes!
well that was rude
Yah nan
heh. i feel like fail, cuz i can't find the rest though, fran
Ok This is really really important.
jes, time to hit morewords. :-)
i'm listening infernal
dunno what that is. think it's time to hit the pillow and try again tomorrow
If you are talking to someone online via msn/yahoo/aol that kind of thing or see on their LJ diary that they are unwell and have health issues and they arent about for a while without telling you, send an email to their school/business etc they may have injured themselfs and need help
okay jes, i still think you did great!
is that what you did infernal?
That is what a friend did with someone that she talks to. It has shown this troubled person that some one really does care about them
sleep sweet, all
night jes!
Night Jess
nite jess
that's great infernal
hullo and good night.
hi bb!
good company to be in herin
It is and that is why i am telling you
fran, any hotel recs in/around honolulu for honeymooners?
Fran, herin, dc and everybody. how tough is the grid tonight?
if money isn't an issue, then i would stay at the marriott resort at ko'olina.
I did study for a year Youth Work and im a person that always thinks outside the box
it's away from honolulu though, but much prettier location
hi bbnaz, took doc 40 mins to do this grid
not too bad bb, just started though
yeah well doc is not NORMAL
i take two or three sittings to finish.
firewords
and I thought yesterday was a bit of a tangle
good onya dart!
I know that, just a good scale to mesure grid by
in waikiki, can't go wrong with Hilton Hawaiian Village or the Sheraton Moana Surf Rider.
wtg dart
yay dart!!
i'm at 99
congrats dart
33 mins here...late start :)
Thanks joso. It is a good measure. Someday I may just have one quarter the grid done before dart and doc and those speed demonds get done.........
congrats, dart!
another inhuman, well done dart
if money is an issue, any hotel in Waikiki will put them where the action is. if they're going to be out sightseeing and stuff then hotel doesn't really matter that much.
Check out wotif.com
thank you both!
dc, have them go to hawaiidiner.com to check out restaurants...it's my friends' site and i've done some reviews there also.
then there is the joso scale, take my time, half it, and thats when the average joe should have it done by.
you're being modest joso!
hey that last fa can't be a word *insert rolling eyes*
ty, fran. i've passed all you and lady have suggested to him - my coworker - he's getting married in Jan
you should read my blurb fran
i'm surprised they're looking at honolulu dc, i thought everyone goes to maui and kauai now.
part of the cost issue, of coures, peak season for tourists from the "mainland'
LOL joso, okay, typing with two fingers will slow you down some, but it's not because of your brains. :-)
does anyone else have probs. logging out of this site....laptop will log me out....this computer shows me logged in all the time even when i try to log out....weird
i agree, fran, but they wanted big city avaiable. I suggest both, and lanai, to them. My grandparents loved going to kauai
kauai is nice
i don't experience that, dart
and why fi4.7 and fina?
yes, maui and kauai are both more expensive for visitors i think and harder to find affordable rooms.
dart......i have had a bit of a problem also with logging off the past couple of days.......seems to be resolved for me however. didn't do anything different, it just started letting me go again
smart in many ways fran, no ego problem here, but not so good with speelinks
heh, great photo, bb
we went to kauai a few years back...stayed in a rental condo...very nice and about a third of the price of a hotel
sometimes that's an advantage joso, many a word has been found by making a typo or spelling error.
cool dart
that was a fun night. lots of smiles there......
IF they go to wotif you can see verious destinations
he's checking it out, lady
my secret weapon
stopping at 105, have to get to bed, goodnight all
nite nana
i'm always logged in dart, i haven't actually attempted to log out myself
g'night banana
night nana!
hi and bye banana, and hi all!

Ok just ignore that try wotiff
wotif even
the grid's not bad, mva
6 to go and they'll have to wait until morning
goodnight all
found that the condo route is nice...can stop and pick up cereal/sodas/beer/snacks etc and avoid the vending machines and it just feels more like a home than the hotel route....and most have pools and such
night flosey!

i do like pepper water crackers. i thought they were just poppy, but nope, pepper and poppy.
oh, yum, kiwi? What type, and traditionally or w/liquid N20?
can i offer to be a tatser kiwi?
fresh strawberries in vanilla lol
i keep tring to enter sote, which has not been valid in English since Chaucer's day.
i have a icecream maker so just make it with milk eggs cream and sugar
yum kiwi
me too dc!
if you ever want ice cream recipes, let me know. i go to a convention each year where that's what we do all weekend, make ice cream.
oh wow im in for that
we have a lovely recipe for grape ice cream that we used to make a tomato ice cream that tasted like fresh tomatoes. :) sigh, that was delish.
i usually do fresh fruit or throw chocolate bars all sliced up
tomato icecream???
yep.
homemade vanilla with pineapple in it, yum! My favorite.
ok thats a new one on me lol
mmm, that reminds me of a tomato sorbet i had at this fancy 100 a plate dinner...it was divine
we do a coconut-lime-habanero. i invented Indian Rose last year - Rose, cardamom & cinnamon
wow, those sound great dc
dc feel free to email me some recipes if you have time email address in profile
carmalized pineapple-vanilla w/a hint of ginger is yummy.
the coconut-lime-habanero sounds wonderful dc!
mmmmm dc!
all round to dc's for icecream making lessons!
ok, now I want ice cream!
i think so too MVA lol
last year that was coconut-lime surprise, the surprise being there was no habanero, as no one thought to bring any.
will do kiwi!
LOL, dc!
dc if you have a good recipe for a lime or berry sorbet id love that too
anyone have a clue for the last sh6/21?
here's a list of flavors we've done: http://www.baitcon.org/flavors.h tml
hi momo!
hi momo
hi fran, I'm down to my last word and it's driving me crazy. Hi MVA.
momo, it's a weird one, it's yiddish
good eve momo
Hi Groovy. I've been salivating for icecream for some reason...
probably all the talk on chat lol
we'll be putting out another Baitcon cookbook - i.e. ice cream cookbook in the near future. i'll gladly send copies to who wants them.
I have some store bought fresh strawberry that I'm tempted to get into.
put me on the list dc lol
you'll have a long list dc!!
sh6/21, sh + **s* (an exam) + *ove is all you need
sh+ the *** offensive( VietNam) + consonant
oops, same time as Fran :)
well, between the two, she should get it cat. :-)
YEAH! FIREWORKS! (I had the first three letters, but just couldn't get the rest). Thanks all.
true! :)
dc, do you have "the perfect scoop" by dave lebovitz?
that's supposed to be a good ice cream book
it's one we refer to, yes, fran
yay momo!!!
congrats mom!
woohoooo wtg mom ^5
yay momo!!
WOO! cograts, momof5!
got to go, good luck all, bbl!!

hello everyone
hi lynxxx!
http://xkcd.com/343/ it's a geek comic
good eve lynxxx happy babbling
Riot Grrl was a punk-crunch-hippy movement in the 90s. Perl is a geeky programming language.
good morning all!

g'night kiwi!
seeya Kiwi
I love the smile, Fran!
sprite, i sighed when i saw ur opening word and my rack in scrbulous
thanks sprite!
if you have terrible tiles, it can be horrid, dc, I know!
morning all just on my way to uni could i have todays stats please
117, 4*7, cool, and good morning
hi cool, 117 total, 4x7, 10 x 6
Hi CoolGirl
nice first word sprite!!
hi cool!
thanks Fran :) I used all tiles in Ata's game just now, I am so proud!
that OF word is bogus.
ty at first glance the board looked big today
hm. now that i think about it, maybe not bogus, just odd.
thanks dc!
lol dc
ata has officially kicked my butt, she should be making her final move and sealing my doom right now.
lol Fran, you will get her back, I am sure :)
so ata is a formidable scrabble foe?
well she claims she isn't good, but me, hursh and probably sprite can tell you that's not true
hey all...nice move of scrabble sprite
Hi Rolin
she has an awesome vocabulary (as do most babblers) so she should be good at scrabble.
hi rolin!
hey lynxxx..say..are you on face book?
when are we going to play a game?
morning, rolin
No Rolin but am aware of it
moring dc....anytime fran..ill go find you ,,hang on
hi rolin! I LOVE the facebook! It is terrible but SOOO addictive!
i'm having trouble keeping up w/facebook since signing up, mostly due to 1 friend :)
Ata rocks with scrabble. And she is fun to play with, as most babblers are... more interested in great words than in winning!
ping (robin) is really good too, as are heather, hursh and nrkii
ok...fran...your go..lol
lol dc! And that would be.....?
its great fun isnt it sprite...i had to laugh at frans post about too many applications..
ulivedu, aka Eduarde del Cerro; guy on the left in my icon today.
Eduardo, i can spell reall, but i'm sleep-addled
did yr court thing go OK DC?
see u all later off to uni bye all
bye CoolGirl
i owe $58 in court cousts, but they waived the %30 fine and dropped the charge, lynxxx. hasta, cool!
it is funl rolin! I am trying to keep the appls down though. Very tempting, but I want to keep up what I start and with too many I will not be able to ;)
bye cool, have a good day!
bye cool!
$30 fine. sigh. sleep come the morn, i shall!
soon DC soon
i had a good group of apps, but with all the new people i've been adding bunches again.
if traffic is usual, i'll be home in ~5 hours, then asleep w/in 60 of that.
moves have been made ladies
exactly...thats what i found...tho i am gonna have a try at the vampire thingy
bye dc...sleep well
and then heather went and added 3 new word games that are really fun, so i had to add those
oh, i'm hours from leaving, rolin. :) i've 3h40 before i leave work
that vampire thing is FUN!
phantom: toggle
oooh sorry...im not trying to get rid of you or anything..lol
oh Fran, let me have an invitation for the wordgames, please? I will always make an exception for wordgames :D
NP :) a 5-hour commute is one i'd not accept. 90min is bad enough.
okay sprite
* grins*
spriiiiite.... werent you the one fighting the addiction??..lol
what is a commute, dc?
the mind is willing, rolin... but the flesh.... sigh
ive always been lucky...ive never had to dive more than 20 mins to anywhere ive worked
travel time between home & work is a commute.
a 20 minute's dive, rolin? You work on the sea bottom?
i live 25mi/40k from my job. w/out traffic, it's 30-40 min. w/traffic, it's 60-90, assuming no accidents nor road closures.
somedays a bit less time, some days a bit more.
do i want 67% chocolate w/orange and spice, or 70% straight up?
70% - keep you more awake
test
excellent point lynxx
we see you lound and clear, rolin
hmmm...must be gremlins at work
and then I want the other one, since you are not using it :D
*passes a Green & Black's Organic Maya Gold bar to sprite*
oooh green and black...
oh my, dc, we cannot get that here and it is SOOOOO delicious!
yes, green and black is good stuff. i've not tried their ice cream yet, but i like their cocoa
well, that's easily corrected, sprite.
is it?
fireworks
you cant get green and black...??..isnt that unconstitutional?
Congrats Joso!
yay joso!
wtg JoSo!!!! *hugs*
wd joso
LOL rolin!
i can walk to store, then to post office, and voila, a week later, you have.
yay joso!!
tnx all
oh, lol, of course, dc! But with the shipping costs, that maya gold would be the price of real gold, I am afraid!
not via USPS it won't. Parcel post is slow and inexpensive.
i'm sending a cake pan to mrp for well less than the pan sells for.
ohhhhhh in that case... I am very much tempted to say YES please!
I could pay through PayPal...
and at least youd be going from like season to like season...i sent some chocolate to my son..we were in winter he in summer...shall we say it was more like a lumps of truffle..rather than individuals by the time it got there..lol
i just had two baby ruth fun size. :-)
LOL rolin
omg rolin, what a shame!
leftovers from haloween, fran?
BBS just getting dinner prepped
yes dc, we bought two huge bags to give out and only gave away one!
later lynxxx!
chao, lynxxx
bye lynx
good thing i made sure we had the good stuff
I have been smart, I bought popsicles for St. Maarten and I knew I would not eat them all if there were left overs.
*hugs lynxxx*
that's important, fran. i grew up in a house that gave out full-size candy, choice of any three of chocolate, non-chocolate, and a gum.
wow dc, your house would have been a must-stop. :-)
I give full size bars out too, not too bad when you buy it by the box
yes, it helped that mom worked at the elementary school, so the whole neighborhood knew her.
exactly, joso hit costo or what, and not bad at all.
costco rather
exactly, 3 boxes at costco and alot of happy faces for 75$
it is fun to give away stuff, I always love it.
poor dc, you really need to sleep. :-)
i just ate another 70g of 70% chocolate. i'll perk up for a bit in a few. :)
i didn't know costco was in Canada also.
fairly new here, but here
great smiles on your icon, dc!
ty, sprite :)
ok...tell me..is the singe g word in the corner a real one?
in scots, yes
having just done something dasterdly Doc Doom is smiling behind the mask, thats my story and I'm sticking with it
oooh fab...lol
firewords, finally
congrats dc
wtg dc!
yay dc!

JoSo, sleep well and sweet dreams!
sleep well, joso!
lol..ok..better go change back to me then

that's fun, liz
:)
i never used to smile in pics..until about 10 years ago..when a went to a new dental tech..and he gave me a totally different top teeth set..
cute liz!
so is yours Fran :)
Rolin why wouldn't you go to the Arctic??
and of course rolin has a great smile, so glad you found a new dentist!
yay for good dentists. (now if only i'd go get my dental stuff taken care of.)
yay! found my first 7
great one, Liz!
go frannie, go frannie!
:)
Hi Liz
Fran I got 8 LOL
yay Fran, so there ARE 7s in this grid...
not the arcric liz...everest...im not m uch of a mountain person... the highest id like to be is atop a quite large sand dune..lol
hiya Lynxxx
wb lynxxx
oh I'm with you there then! I hate heights. When I go to Jordan next year I have to go over two mountains and its scaring me witless lol
mountains aren't that bad, i've driven through parts of the Sierra Madre, and all over Appalachia. i hike in the Blue Ridge all the time.
poor Liz :( You are truly heroic to do it anyway!
no... just insane Sprite :)
well the most amazing thing that has happened to me so far was flying from toronto to vancouver.. i was looking out the window..looked away..then 10 mins later i freaked cos i thought we had lost altitude suddenly..but no..the earth had come to the plane in the form of the rockies.. i didnt much like that
arn't they near synonyms? ;)
Well DC we have a natural causeway on this island whichis about 100m above the sea with sheer drops on each side and I have to cross it with my eyes closed LOL
oh, i could show you roads in West Virginia that'd turn your hair grey then, liz. and the mountains here in the East are only a bit bigger than in Wales and Scotland.
You're turning my hair grey just at the thought of it :)
aren't what near synonyms, sprite?
heroic and insane, dc
oft, they are one indeed, sprite.
lol Sprite, I'd like to think so but sadly I'm leaning more to the insane!
Liz, dearheart, you are going on a trek for a very good cause... you are a hero and nothing less.
Tell you what Sprite - if I make it back in one piece you can call me that then lol
lost
ack
what makes you think you have permission doing otherwise???
*runs to the corner with head hanging in shame*
now THAT is what I call a Freudian slip,, Liz, LOL
Rofl
think I'd better concentrate on the grid for a while
good luck!
:)
i still have 35 to find, but it's getting later here.
it is getting later everywhere, Fran, trust me
i'll see you all tomorrow! and rolin and sprite, i'll catch up with our games tomorrow!
I'm going to have to go too - playschool beckons
perfect Fran, sleep well and pretty dreams! *hug*
bye Fran - sweet dreams
funny sprite! i think i meant getting late. :-)
Bye Fran, Sprite, DC...all
g'night fran, sleep well.
bye liz!
bye Liz
hasta, liz
have fun, Liz, and see you later *hug*
bye!

rolin, I think Fran is gone already. No pressure on the playing, darling, whenever you want is fine with me.
The Little Prince, maybe?
have a lovely day, rolin
Definitely not, dc, I have that in dutch and in french.
Wolfgang Schivelbusch's works go into English nicely - i have a number of those that the West German Embassy gave to me through the years.
;) You could always recite some Dr. Seuss
LOL, oh dear, i seem to be getting into the tee-hee zone. :D
I love it all, dc, I just don't have it in english.
understandably, sprite.
does the curriculum in the Netherlands teach the role the Dutch played in colonizing America, sprite?
Excellent question, babblerabble, esp considering the still-strong Dutch influence in the New York City, nee New Amsterdam, area.
It takes your blood about one minute to make a complete trip through your body, during which it carries oxygen to outlying cells and returns with waste matter from the cells.
i'd forgotten how quickly it completes a circuit.
Hello

I had a fantastic time at the yoga class
cool, which school of yoga is it, do you know?
I have no idea
It was basic stuff it was all about relaxation rather than bendy like a prtzel
stretching and breathing do wonders for the body in so many ways
yes, relaxation is key in yoga, and all good stretching practices, as is conscious breathing
My back and hips feel so much better. There was a relaxation at the end that was mind altering it was awesome
:D big happy!
I keep cheeping 'IM HUNGRY"
French songs always lose a lot when put into English.

what's for dinner tonight?
OK i am going to sound like a new age hippy but tonight i got to go some where on else. I was running with wolves on a dessert plane and there were eagles circling.
DC lasagna from the store
coming from a Native American tradition, desert plane represents an open expanse/new opportunity, the wolves are knowledge/cooperative work/comraderie, and the eagles are majesty, power, protection.
when we meet, if you're willing, i'd be happy to do a reading and see what i might of your hunting grounds, if you are open - lit and fig - to that.
Cool. ANd very cool My spirit beast is wolf so that was very cool. People think i am odd when i say i have a pack and i can smell when change is coming
i know nothing of the aboriginal tradition there, but i gather that there be some parallelism to our Eastern/Plains tradition on this continent.
I dont know much about the Australian Aboriginal tradition myself
OH SNAP
DC we got 33% likeness on facebook

Good morning Scrabbler.
Hi carlee
It's gray here too. Must be November
Hello Scrabbler

Yesterday was a nice, sunny day, but winter is coming and will stay until March.
A cold, carlee?
Guten Morgen, gang, I have been quietly finding treasure. Need 65 more, back into my corner
Well then, use this as therapy until you don't feel it's doing you any good any more.
Good morning inge.
throat....
always goes to my throat
i still need 73 it not funny
GUten MOrgen, Inge...vierundsechzig, dreiundsechzig....
I need 90...having fun here
not sure about this grid, at first glance it does not look too friendly
It's not nearly as bad as yesterday's though there are some new words around.
I am now struggling to see words
lots better than yesterday
right outside my window is lots of fo4/9
yesterday was a stamina grid
Yesterday we had to suspend reality and type in odd words. My monkey helped a lot.

At this rate the penalty box is going to get crowded very quickly!
not going to penelty box...am off to shower...
We can all eat, drink and be merry together in the penalty box
Well okay, in consideration of other users, you can have your shower first
I am up to 50/67, so off for breakfast, shower, then work. I will retunr in the late afternoon. Enjoy the day everyone.
Bye Scrabbler, have a good day.
I am just finding 4 and 5 letter words so far
softs
have a great day scrabbler
now I am going to the penalty box, hope there is some chocolate in there
peri same here but then there arn't many 6's or 7's
If you shift round in your chair enough you'll find you're described in fi6 and fi7
thanks Haz
os
And, a new word or two for me, fi5/22 and its plural form the root of the squirmy fi6.
Hello all
new for me too, thanks Haz
Good morning Uniquity.
thanks haz!
You're welcome, peri.
hi Uni
***tiptoes in, and delicately tackle hugs carlee, going easy because she's sick***
G'd mornign Babblers! That was a super cool, groovy grid!
hi Lori
Hello Lori - carlee is showering.
Gads, that was terrible tackle timing......
***makes not to follow chat a bit more closely***
I just hated seeing you tackle someone who wasn't there and falling flat on your face.
*note even
If you'd given more warning.....
LOL Haz. It does lose the desired effect somewhat.
I found it entertaining...
Well, you can stay in stealth mode ready to strike when she gets back.
***Tries to think of a way to contain the uniquity peanut gallery, and comes up blank***
Chat away, pretending not to notice when she's back then STRIKE. (but gently)
If you came to visit, you could stuff me in a closet...if i had one
Ahh yes. Just like your childhood #1? :-)
I do seem t recall a thing or two

unfortunately, the haplless myrmidons will capitulate to the whims of the gobemouche no matter how transpicuous the fallibility of the formulation presents.

Happy brekkie-ing peri. G'd morning babble!
See you later peri.
Fetching my dictionary....

good morning BR!

good day, peoples
Good morning Babble.
G'd morning Nono.
breakfast time here.... bbl
any Jewish babblers here? Last night nutty wanted to know why a minyan has a quorum of 10, why not three or six? Anybody have an answer?
Later Nono, may I recommend captain Crunch!
People will do what government tells them, Babble?
yes, no matter how inane
inge, I googled minyan and it says it can be ten or more to form a quorum.
Are you thinking of anything in particular, or is it a general observation?
as nutty questioned, who decreed that it has to be at least ten, why not less Chrsitians pray in smaller groups
It refers back to the sins of the ten spies who brought back bad reports of Canaan.
Maybe represents the ten tribes of Israel? (Good morning, all)
G'd morning Nonnie
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minyan scroll down to Origin and it says why 10 instead of other numbers ... and why not when. There is no such thing as an UNarguable Jewish rule.
inge, there's an article in Wilkipedia.
oops, scratch that...I think it is actually 12 tribes!
Good morning Nonnie, and yes, 12 tribes.
Thanks for all that help on minyan.
ok...am melling purtty like now...
I've a feeling it's a word we'll remember for the future.
smelling purty..sheesh
* ducking lorip*
Hello carlee - we knew what you meant!
just cus I showered....and smell good does not mean I have had coffee yet
That Lori needs to take lessons in what it means to be in stealth mode and READY.
Maybe she fell asleep?
Has she tendencies to narcolepsy?
i still say lego is a real word!
if people are lying down, how can they fall asleep?
She never has before, but exhaustion'll get you anytime
***sigh. Can't believe how a quick Russel Crowe fantasy can spoil the opportunity to tackle hug in the cyber world***
Say it all you like, but it still has a big C for copyright beside it...
Or is it TM for trademark?
I vow to be more alert and focused, in the future.
*** tackle hug LORIP***
either way - still can't babble it!
hi, all. this is the very last day in our apartment.
So much for being alert and focussed.
***hey hey hey! Watch it carlee, I'm still day dreaming***
and on to better and more beautiful spacious digs....
u can have russel ALL to ur self dear..too pasty white for my liking
Oh Angel, you must be floating on air!
Good morning Angel.
mind I like his music...
we've decided to take our two cats with us to the closing...so they will be out of the way of the movers. Then they can stay with me at the house while the movers are loading.
Back shortly.
What a fascinating video. You will all love it

Hello Scarlet. The fragrant hound is here. I enquired about the shampoo the groomers use - It's banana and mango apparently.

Well then, I must scramble to be as lovely as your Spangle... there must be something of that ilk in Asheville... this town has everything. Thank you, Haz.
You're welcome!
Spangle must be enjoying all the snuggles he is getting since smelling so lovely
is there a clue for the last sh 6?
She's very strokable at the minute, that's for sure.
Is she strutting about, Haz...showing off her new haircut and grooming touches? LOL
there... changed my icon - real "POOF"
very nice montreal
She's having a nap, prior to the afternoon walk. She always comes home quite excited after the groomers, races up and down the hall then settles down again.
I'll have to refresh, montreal... I see the prior one...
Oh, pretty colours, montreal!
phandmd, last sh6, yiddish for village, I had to go to a cross reference dictionary...
The proof that I've been babbling too long is that I remember the Yiddish village appearing a couple of times before.
the gl4/8 is reli ticking me off lol
got it thnx
i seem to remember it before as well Haz but still had to look it up when someone clued it
gl4/8 - g plus a limb.
ta
You're welcome, Mitchell.
yw

Well done Shawnee!
Congratulations SHawnee.
congrats Shawnee
congrats Shawnee
so 5/10 clue pls (if plural dont have the 4 above it and need that as monkies aren't working)
HI all
ty all for excellent clues this morning. everyone must be in top form today.
SO5 = bottoms of shoes
Hi, periwinkle!! HOw are you this morning? {{{hugs}}}
so4/4 - look at the bottom of your foot and plural.
yay for Shawnee!!!! .. and hi to peri!
so 5/10, bottom of shoe/foot
hi Peri welcome back
Hello peri.
pabtrek where abouts in NY are you?
I was using the wrong so, in fact didn't notice that other one! Thnx
Poor Imran's been arrested :(
Neither did I, phan... wow... Babbling creates some strange creatures
!
I am doing better today, Scarlet
No! House arrest or worse?
I am so happy that you have come away from the funkiness, peri!
Sorry... who is Imran?
Mr Niazi said Mr Khan was subsequently locked inside a nearby building for an hour by the rival students before they put him in a van and drove him to police officers waiting at the campus gates. Later, several Lahore police officials confirmed they had taken Mr Khan into custody.
Imran is to Atalante as George is to Hazel.
properly arrested!
Oh dear.
Oh, my... sending appropriate sorrow for Atalante, then, Haz!
and also to Hazel too, second only to George
Will you explain about Imran, Atalante?
Rival students... is this a sports' related name?
Sorrow? Nonsense. If he's arrested that just means he can't run away from you, Ata.
LOL... hi, Vicuna!
Imran was a cricketer playing for Pakistan, then became a politician, marrying Jemima Goldsmith along the way. He' sjust wonderfully handsome.
Hello Vicuna!
Hello, all.
now need 1st te 5/10 pls
always the excellent voice of reason, Vicuna.
Hi Nono in the Fingerlakes, about 35 miles south of Rochester
He's involved in the political opposition in Pakistan. He's not favoured by Musharaf.
hi, Vicuna..
Okay... the same team whose coach was found dead in a hotel a few months ago, Ata?
le5/10 - te plus beginnings of winning's opposite.
cool we are nearly neighbors pab. I am a bit south of watkins glen
and done! I can give a couple clues but gotta run
Imran has been out of professional cricket for a long time now, but yes,it was the Pakistani cricket team whose coach died.
thats the one, Scarlet
congrats, phan
Congratulations phandmd.
Yay for phandmd!
one word to go, clue for sh6-21 please
yay for phan
but he's now caught up in the instability caused by Musharraf
NONO...Watkins Glen is where I saw some incredible formula racing.. and met Jackie Ixyx many years ago!
wtg phandmd
congrats, phand!!!
wow, love watkins, hills and waterfalls, beautiful
sh6/21 - sh, three letters of French head, or infamous Vietnamese offensive, finish with a consonant.
the Glen is rich in racing history Scarlet!
must be going, final ultrasound today. "crosses fingers baby is no longer feet first*
good luck shawnee!
Good luck, Shawnee!
so does anyone need a clue? Good luck Shawnee
Turn baby turn!
Yahoo for phan!!
i am wearing the monkies out on go6.30..
Best of luck, Shawnee! :-)
Stand on your head if you need to!
think wine glass Aloy but change the b
kind of like a wine go* change the b though
go6/30 - looks like little protective eyewear
ty for well wishes. have a great day all.
ty so much, phand and vicuna..
you too, Shawnee..
What a silly word... thank you, Nono, phan and Vi.
any more clues needed?
and ty too Nono.. great clue.. I'm going to look that word up
Ata... is this arrest a serious event? Pakistan is all over our news, and the feeling is very uneasy about what is happening.
it is a long-necked jar
47 left, need to do some errands, bbl
If not, then I'll be off
later, peri
later peri
See you later peri.
Benazir Bhutto is being called a Harvard-educated corruption model... and Musharaf is being called a dictator... Later, peri!
bye peri
I don't think there's ever anything straightforward about Pakistani politics. It's been described as being an army with a country rather than a country with an army.
And therein lies the insanity, Haz... yet, Mr. Bush continues to offer support and bleats out demands for elections...
thank you Haz, finally got it, my husband walked up and knew right away the viet offensive term, vietnam veteran
I know. He probably means well.
Glad you got it, crp.
No, he probably doesn't. But if he weren't doing that he'd be bombing.
fireworks, have a nice day everyone
I long ago abandoned any attempt to understand what goes on in Mr. Bush's mind, Haz... I have never been able to grasp his "foreign policy" for instance.
Yay for crpw!
Congratulations crp.
congrats, and the very same to you, crpw!!!!
Well done, crp... way to go! :-)
sorry, I ran downstairs to get some lunch
He's not the most inspiring speaker, that's for sure.
I'm asking about the seriousness of this arrest, Ata.
congrats crp
Never apologize for lunch, Ata.
LOL... Vicuna,. you are cracking me up this morning!!
well its serious, but not as serious as it could be - if they arrested Bhutto for example
Then I have not lived in vain, Scarlet! =)
LOL....
question: why can't there be more than one stern end of a ship?
I must be off now...... Happy Babbling everyone
The thing is, the high profile people might be arrested but they'll probably get out again. It's lesser known people who will suffer the most.
the other end is aft
I thought Bhutto was under house arrest as of yesterday, Ata... Maybe I heard that incorrectly. 'Bye, Nono!
Bye Nono.
she's under house arrest, but not *arrest*
i thought so too, Scarlet
Well, there could... if it was a pushme-pullyou ship.
bye, Nono.. thanks again
*redfaced*
It's hard to sail around with two rears and no front!
Not that I speak from personal experience, of course!
That sounds like a desription of a flat-chested, big- bottomed woman.
EKS-cussseeee me, Vicuna??
could not one refer the the afts - like "this equipment was designed to be mounted on the afts of ships"?
Try getting clothes to fit THAT shape.
That's half my description, Haz!
What, Scarlet?? Just trying to help out TO.
lol whay about us big front and big bottomed?
Ph, yes, I would think the word could be pluralled legally, just not all on one craft.
You're just voluptuous.
LOL....
By "Ph" I meant "Oh."
*slinks back to work*
LOL, TO...
Oh, don't slink away, TO! Stay and play! I'm feeling dreadfully flippant today.
fireworks.. (-: once y'all helped me over the go6 hump, it went quickly
Feeling and spewing, Vi!
Yay for Aloy!
So, if we have pushmepullyou ships, and gravy trains, could a dessert plane fit in anywhere? This is a question for Atalante to solve.
"Spewing" Scarlet? I'm not sure I like the sound of that.... Are you making implications, madam?
Congratulations Aloy!
hi aloy! and bye all!
Dessert can fit in anywhere, I believe.
A humor-spewer, funny one! ;-)
hi TO.. flying through the Babble site! Bye, TO!
hi babblers...does the last sh word begin sht??
Yahoo for Aloy...are you all ready for Thanksgiving...
yes, seano
Flying is definitely the safest way to get through the site. Otherwise you might step in some humor. =P
Daughter is doing Thanksgiving, Scarlet.. am baking some things.. meanwhile, I have been very busy assembling vegetarian menus.. have found some nice recipes.. how about you?
Some dreadfully serious folks wouldn't know humor if it were to tap them on the jaw... ice-queens we call them...
Very busy, and very happy, Aloy... I'll keep a good thought for you and yours!
(I have two weeks of menus to do for Christmas)
Yikes... that's some long-range planning... I have decided (at the "demand" from daughter) to do the racks of lamb for T-giving, and the turkey for Christmastime.
This will be my first time doing Thanksgiving for the in'laws and I'm all in a tizzy I won't do it "right."
strange one that! fireworks
Ah, Scarlet.. your joy radiates.. bouncing it back .. sigh.. MEAT on the table!!!!
Congratulations seano!
Well done, seano!! Congratulations.
Not that they would give me a hard time. They are very nice, but I want to be the good daughter-in-law.
yahoo, congrats to seano!
Yay for seano!
You]
You will do it just perfectly, vicuna!
You will be just fine, Vicuna... it's hard to mess up a turkey... I AM happy, Aloy... nice that you could see that!
Then, Vicuna, do what you can, smile and be hospitable. If things go wrong, don't draw anyone's attention to it.
congrats seano
oh I'm sure I could mess up a turkey. Just have strong flavoured gravy
hullo fellow babblers....back for the last 95. yep, that's right, 95 to go
The turkey's the only part I'm worried about, really. And the general timing of nothing being ready when it should be.
It actually makes itself, Vi... I brine it the night before and make a sausage/sage/craisin stuffing with tons of parsley and onions...
Make an approximate timetable, work backwards so you know when to start things off.
when i first started hosting the holidays, i had to make schedules.. for years.. and then the microwave was invented, LOL..
And in case of disater we can always get Chinese take-out like in "A Christmas Story," right?
*disaster
It'll be grand, Vicuna.
beans on toast would still be good on christmas day, its havign everyone there thats important
I suppose a diseater would be someone who rubbishes your food.
correcto, Atalante!
When you say "makes itself," does that mean I can just play Babble all Thanksgiving day while the food leaps about the kitchen in self-preparation?
at least you won't do what my mum did (hopefully) and give everyone poisoning with her christmas lunch one year!
I don't use the nuker much, except for a quick sautee of the onions before adding them to whatever... I use crock pots for the creamed onions and the gravy... and since I am making a wine reduction as the sauce for the lamb...no gravy needed...
No, there will be no disasters. I'm just being flippant!
Plenty of time to babble while the turkey's in the oven.
What strain of poisoning did she give?
Alas, that will be the time I will be making polite conversation!
Oh, everyone sick would definitely be a disaster! Yikes!
ermmmm a strain that was strong enough for us all to only start remembering the 27th Dec
Oh, Ata... that's awful!
you ladies are making me very hungry
FIREWORKS!:-) Reading all the chat, I'm ever so glad we don't have to bother with Thanksgiving as well as Christmas.
actually, it was just funny. We all felt so awful, what can you do but laugh?
all this talk of yummy food.. off to brunch methinks.. have a Wonderful Wednesday, all ! See you anon.. (-:
ni 6? anyone
It would be one way of ensuring you don't get asked to do Thanksgiving or Christmas lunch again.
wahoo, wtg Jacula!!!!
Congratulations Jac!
Bye, Aloy!
ni6 - mirrors the structure of the squirmy fi6
Congratulations Jacula!
Ta-ta, Aloy!
I'm off to put some of P's Jameson's in the Christmas cakes now. Then I have hutches to clean and then, I think, I'll have a soak in a hot bath.
ni6: variation of someone with achondroplasia, a "little person"
Have fun, Jacula.
Does Paul know where his whiskey is going?
Haz - Do you think Spangle would like a toy like the dog in my pic has?
Haz - Yes re the whiskey. LOL.
Perfect clue, Aloy.. I had it, but that's original!! :-)
how does Spangle look after her trim?
Spangle looks great and the banana and mango shampoo smells wonderful!
Must feed the beloved.... have a wonderful day, all. I'll be back later!
Jacula - I just realised a while ago that 'smiles' was the theme, so for once, Spangle doesn't have to be changed.
Goodbye, Scarlet.
Bye Scarlet.
Indeed, no, Haz. Spangle's very smiley in that pic.
banana and mango? wow!
Be careful Spangle doesn't get mistakenly devoured by a passing monkey!
I know. Apparently they use different shampoos depending on dog's skin condition.
Well, I'd better go or it'll be time to make dinner before I get chance to have that bath. Happy Babbling!
Bye Jacula - enjoy the soak.
Goodbye, Jacula.
Will do, Haz. Byeee.
bye Jac
It's a drizzly day outside - not very conducive to walking a fragrant dog, but I'm feeling the need for fresh air. Back shortly.
have fun with the scented one!
Goodbye, Haz. It has come to my attention that I am frittering my life away. I'd better do something marginally more useful beofre returning for the final words.

re-thinking sometimes good carlee...

Hello, all. Help with the of, please?
carlee, did you gt the two words peri gave away when she entered the chat?

Thanks, montreal!
yw flippy !
Carlee, do you have to ** meaning rear end?
yeap... I have that one...
Does the last sh6 start with 3 consonants, or am I just totally missing something obvious?
Amazing! How about the bang,bang?
3 consonants
yes . . . and it only has one vowel
i have bang bang..am up to 9 words now tho
it's "village" in yiddish flippy - only 1 vowel in the middle
I feel very embarrased, the so 4/4
10 now :D
POM POM toss for Carlee !!!
am on a roll..woohoo..watch me fly
think shoe bichon
that st word derives from the German word Stadt, and little one in the Swabian dialect would be Städtle, see the relationship?
I was looking at the other so duh
Wow, that lo/7 is a weird one. One of those false plurals that eluded me because I had monkey typed the supposed singular unsuccessfully. FInallly the monkeys corraled it...so fireworks.
wtg Jan and her monkeys !!!
bravo Jan
BTW, that lo/7 is apparently an old English game in which people threw wooden sticks at a post. Back before Babble...
Thanks for all the hints! Finally got it. Only one left.
lol jan...
Jan, I got the last one the same way - a false plural I missed earlier. Only, this one meant "buttocks." :)
wtg Flippy !

Congrats, Flippy. I admit I'd never looked that one up before. One of the classic Babblets...

I are tired lady -- but well. You?
Thank you, Stidmama!
{{{doxy}}} hi!
Greetings friends!
hi Scrabbler.
hi scrabbler-the-hopefully-unlame!
Less lame than yesterday.
I am great. I had a fantastic yoga session last night and hitting the gym today. Scrabbler you poor lov
Well that's gooder at least! Anything new about Mary?
Oh no..what happened Scrabbler! I missed something, obviously.
sounds lovely, lady
Scrabbler learned she is not 25 anymore, kristia! rofl
She will be going to Duke Univ next week to see one of the top guys in the US. He was contacted last week and provided recommendations.
My back hurts as soon as I stop yoga, herin..uh oh..skiiing??
VERY good. *keeping fingers, toes and eyes crossed for Mary*
Krista, I am a tennis player and when I play up at net I morph into a goaltender, diving for shots. But, I am 48 and my skeleton reminded me--sacroiliac strain with referred nreve pain----YOWEE! I still cannot sleep due to bad pain.
brb phone
But I am getting better each day.
have to run to the bank. will be back to finish later. have fun all.
I've heard that's PRETTY painful. Eeesh....bye for now, Doxy
Scrabbler is more fit than most 25 years i know.
krista my instructor was awesome very gentle stuff
byee doxy. send us some!!!!
It is a new experience for me, and at first I feared a herniated disk.
bye doxy
Fat but fairly fit, Lady
Yes, that would be a lot worse, I'm sure.
I am very bad about practicing at home, herin. Are you?
I have gone thru the disk stuff twice and the recovery takes several months.
I am reading the book, Eat, Pray, Love and am becoming interested in yoga.
I saw that on Oprah..trying to remember who wrote it..
Elizabeth Gilbert...I like her writing style a lot.
I dont do yoga at home i go to a class at about 1030 ill wonder off again to the gym. I have to restart as my knee displeases me
hello all. how many words today
I thought she would end up with that John guy, but I don't think she did, right?
Anybody have ni6?
117 words
I think her boyfriend was David, and I have not finished the book yet
i will trade you ni6 for of6? lol
ni6 is structured the same as the squirmy fi6.
HI Haz
My last yoga session was 2 weeks ago and I'm getting stiff again.
Hi HAzel...I am pondering your clue
I suffered years of back pain and finally went to a Chiropractioner and I aqm now free of pain.
Hello al - just*peeking* in.
Krista it was fantastic.
fi6/36 - squirm around in your chair and you'll be called this.
This would be easier of I had fi6, LOL
Wow, I just got 4 clues, TY, HAzel
I love going to the chiro and getting my neck adjusted...crunch, crack....Hey Haz!
I tore both the misci ligiments in my right knee. 3 months of rehab fixed it 2 years of poor eating and no exercise has got me pretty much back to square one
Fireworks!
Yikes, be very careful with chiros!
Yahoo Liz!
You're welcome, Scrabbler.
*cringes at neck crunching*
hi stidmama
Congratulations liz!
YAY liz!
I know, Scrab. He's a good one. He won't adjust my mom's neck due to risk of stroke; he's very conscientious.
Thank you, and goodnight.
they helped me, my hubby and my sister .... so I have faith in them.
HI Ata i am back on my pc
Sorry to hear that, herin.
I have been to chiropractors many times, scrabbler -- IF you get one who knows what is what... it is very helpful. I don't go regularly only because I can't afford it.
sweet dreams liz
hi stidmama.
I was offered a job working with mine as a massage therapist, but never finished. **cue massage school dropout** song
goodnight liz.
.LOL Krista!
I like a little pain, Ata.
I am going to head out too... back later to clue if I can
Krista i need a massage
I just hate the way it feels!
Bye stid.
goodnight stid.
*looks back in log* CHEEKY -- of 6 is "most frequent" of + an exam or quiz in school is called a ****
*poof*
I can only send you Reiki, herin. My neck gets almost stuck (whiplash injury) so it does hurt, but feels good to have more range of motion afterwards
hi stidmama
Owee Krista
I am off now ... a good book to read! Happy Babbling to you all.
do you practice reiki Krista
go6?
What are you reading, Mo?
Enjoy your book, Mo. Good night.
I feel like Linda Blair on The Exorcist when I walk outta there. ;)
good night Haz.
Hi Kimber..I'm only 2nd degree, but yes.
go6 anyone?
Not spewing pea soup, but moving my neck around, just to clarify.
gotit
HI Kimber and Carra and anyone else i miss
go6 - go, a repeated consonant, and a repeated point in tennis.
cool- i have been trained to the master level but rarely practice
go6 sounds like the sort of eye protectors babies would wear for swimming.
I had ro reread your clue 4 times, but I figured it out finally. TY, HAzel
Periwinkle (here on Babble) does it professionally. Have you met her? Pracitice is really the key. I've been doing it for uh..doing math..13 years now..really need to go back for 3rd/master level! I don't feel I've practiced enough and forget symbols if I don't use them.
Nothing like making you work for a word!
gl5 please?
She already has a strain, Haz. Be careful.
Wow, monkey just found it, LOL
I know, Krista, but gentle exercise is good....
I made the mistake of doing a bit of outside work an hour ago--bringing ho4 into the shed, pulling out tomato plants...and may hip/pelvis didn't like that.
no- i have not met periwinkle - i should talk to her- the symbols are ingrained in my brain- lol - My last intunement was by my dad, which was pretty cool- where do you live?
I cant find my last 3 grrrrrrrr
Ata..you here?? Do you play Scrabulous on Facebook?
yup I'm here yup I do!
5 left for me, Ata
It's a race to the line.
Want to start a game with me?
sure!!!
Your Dad, kimber..that's awesome. I don't think I ever saw a man in any of my classes. I'm in Maryland.
With great assistance from my monkey, I am done. TY all for clues.
Congratulations Scrabbler.
Do u want to start it, or should I (no preference here)? Finish here, of course, with only 3 to go.
I'm in IL, but my dad was in FLA then- all of my teachers have been male
No more yard work, Scrab!!!
Krista i tjhink i was playing with you in scablis but i am trying many things
you start, why not :)
I know, Krista, but we are expecting snow tomorrow and I had to get the yard ready.
I started a game with you, herin. Take your time, that's why I like using it. I can't always sit here at the computer (tho it may seem otherwise).
icky snow
snow???
hi all, and yet another grid that is too small to be fun!! 8-(
It was 65 here today in the midwest- which is crazy warm for us
Hello BDG. It's quite a nice grid, though.
Well, take it easy now. :) We want you well enough to sit here with us without pain.
of6 please?
te 5.10 ? [both]
of6 - an old fashioned way of saying 'most frequently'
Hi Gwen..it's small, but challenging enough to be fun.
second te 5.10
te5/10 - one's a plural, the other adds a vowel to the te4/4
thanks haz.
Krista i am trying to manage a weight lose thing at live journal i missed a member due to a swamp of crap email
Yes, snow! We had some last week, but it melted away by 2 days ago. Soon winter will come and stay until April.
carra - the second one is the adding a vowel to the te4/4
ty.. it was the plural i needed :)
fireworks!
No problem.
Hurray!
Ok, herin..whenever u get to play, the game will be there.
[3rd] st 5/10
st5/10 - adds a vowel to the st4/4 that precedes it.
the in-laws are here...catch you all later...Ata, look for a game soon
st + spielberg movie about an alien + plural letter
will do krista!
and the silly facebook is erroring
Better the in-laws than the outlaws.
scrabbler ar eyou still in practice for peds?
But with outlaws they can be arrested inlaws you have to put up with them
But you might like the in-laws.
What does the to4,4 word mean?
To throw or pitch. If you click on the ? you usually get a definition.
In this case it only leads to a word that's close, not the actual word.
click on the little button next to the word and defintion page opens
how many words are there?
117
or, 80 more for me.
all dictionaries are flawed, including the online ones. (OED is online but costs a bundle to use, so I don't know if they count as the one exception)
ty haz for the st clue :)
You're welcome, carra.
bed time now. night night all!
not getting the of clue.. any others?
Good night Atalante. Sleep well. Hope the news of Imran is better tomorrow!
of6 - think of the word that means frequently, and which begins with of. Now take off the last letter and make it a superlative.
hopefully!
ty
Night, Atalante!
You're welcome, carra.
ni 6?
eegad, running late, gotta fly, bye all!
ni6 - if it began with an m, it would describe a very small person. When it begins with f (as in fi6/36) it means a squirmer or wriggler. The structure is the same.
Bye BDG - hope you make your appointment.
sucha great cluer haz ty!
Sorry dang community sucked me into its mighty internets
Glad to help, carra.
Thanks Haz for clues i was roaming
That's okay.
fa 5.16 [2nd] & lo7 ?
lo7 - first three letters of the piece of wood, the last letters are the same as 'obtains'
fa5/16- a term of disparagement for an overweight person.
Or, indeed the last letters of fi7/52 I for the lo7)
lo7 is also an anagram of go7/44.
got the lo7 ty
Okay, time I was off. Happy babbling!
and the fa ::fireworks::
ty bye haz!

:)
i found the cutest podcast praise, wanna see it?
yeah how do I do that
i have the link, you don't have to download it, you just go to the page
don't be fooled by the name, its clean
k
http://blip.tv/file/465758 <===
didn't work
hmmm...you must not have the java or whatever it requires
got a message saying the command you attempted is not available
wait, you didn't copy the arrow into it did you
I have java
not sure
hang on
that is cute
definitely different
i think it is hilarity
i'm downloading all the available episodes now
LOL
isn't she the cutest little girl?
I suppose you are done with the grid?
heck no, i'm anti finish
yeah can't say as much for the guy tho
LOL
hey, that's not a guy, not nice to make fun of her like that, poor girl
really I didn't know there were such people around here
just think what its like to be her, the poor girl
LOL there was a guy on the video I saw
i'm gonna have to go buy her that song, so she can sing it right
LOL
not that the original sounds any better at all
that's for sure
uh oh! rain!
really
whereabouts are you located?
pennsylvania, you?
Ohio
supposed to get cold tonite
down in the 30's anyway
ah, you're not far then, yes...we have the old woodburner going strong
yeah winter in Ohio makes me wish that I had stayed in Oklahoma
LOL
oklahoma, but there's nothing to do in oklahoma...oh wait, there's nothing to do here either
big excitement here is the mysterious death of one of our cows.
hehe
well I have to say there is definitely more to do here than in the little podunk towns that I lived in in Oklahoma
oklahoma isn't on my list of states to visit, that's for sure
LOL wouldn't be for me either
but I still have lots of family there
welp, you have no choice then, you have to visit the ok state....get it, it's ok...ha ha ha
LOL
one thing about it tho
I think that the people are friendlier there than here
people here i think are generally friendly, if you give them a chance, and smile first.
yeah some are
but I guess I tend to run into those that you smile at and they look at you like you are crazy!
LOL
that's when you pinch their cheeks and say "aren't you the cute one"
LOL
guess everyone must be working on the grid
or done with it already
probably done, and anti socializing with us, they must be from ohio
LOL
don't get me wrong
I have met a lot of nice people here
it's just that I think that people tend to be friendlier the farther south you go
and s l o w e r
slower as in how they talk?
I will give you that
work too
could be
go 6

Hi, Jex
*JEs
so 5/16 please
hehe. i kinda like jex, actually
which so 5/16?
plural of the 4/7, or 4/7+vowel
Jes, is there a med equivalent to valium for kittens? A friend's kitten fell and has pins in his tibia, and is he well managed for pain, but seems to need some calming down...
Ok, glad it didn't offend, jes, LOL
actually, there is valium for cats...but it's pretty short acting so not really useful for that situation
why would that offend me?
Wll, jex could be just wrong, LOL
short acting like xanax, because you are right, that wouldn't help...
NM. Got it. Thanks.
well no, it's actually just valium. same drug.
hello everyone, a very late start for me today.
He is 3.5 months old and fell off a granite cliff--not very nimble,... and he was bruised all over, in hospital for 4 days....
hey, mom
but we only have injectable at our clinic, and that wears off in about 20 mintues. i'm sure you could use oral, but i don't know what the dose would be or how effective it would be.
Hi Tyger
Oh, right, I forget that about valium (short-acting) part...
poor baby kitty
thanks, tyger
poor kitty. needs lots of TLC
might tell her to ask her vet about some acepromazine, but some cats get really cranky on that.
hi mom
I will ask them to ask their vets--at Angell Memorial, so you would think they would think of it...
Hate Ace....
i heard you can give cats st johns wort
I'd be very scared to give a cat any sort of herbal, without a doctor's supervision
Hi Doxy
I know you're trying to help, Wyrd, but cats just have the most frighteningly delicate systems
why do you hate ace? it can be very useful, used correctly
Seen too many dogs get beyond hyper and very reactive, jes...
woot fireworks!
congrats, Amy
my gf read a bunch of stuff about it on the web and she gives her cat that because its always so sensitive
congrats Amy
tyty
congrats amy!
3rs ah 5/12 plz?
do you know whether the kitten is the kind that reacts to catnip as a downer?
and the 6/21?
yeah. i don't use it alone in dogs much, except for travel sedation. rough recover sometimes, too.
which 6/21, praise?
next to lat one
don't know, tyger,...
last that is
I have seen that rough recovery, too...
what letters, praise? I can't figure out what clues you're asking for
need the next to last one
3rd sh 5/12 and the first 6/21
sorry bout that
Fireworks
didn't realize I botched up first request
3rd sh5/12 is sh4/5 + consonant
congrats, doxy
congrats Doxy
Yay, Doxy!
1st sh6/21 is the preceding + snake
I have that one tyger
the 5/12 I mean
Thanks, Jes and All!
on the other hand though, pam, i'd rather have my hound a bit droopy than pacing the house crying and slobbering and trying to hide in the bathtub cuz of the fireworks ;)
ty tyger
finally figured it out
My dog gets xanax for her panic attacks--she has had lymphoma for almost two years, and survived two bouts of mast cell (she is 13) so now she is on daily xanax as her panic exacerbated..
I have a cold--guess my brain is foggy!
yw
we used valium on our 19# maine coon - kept him cool calm and collective -
for those who get to see the video. I have seen this guy in person. He is great.
Hi Ren xx
I understand. I've had a rough day today, so I'm fully equipped to empathize :)
(((mom)))
how are you?
hi ren
hey, ren. I *lurve* Maine Coons. Friends used to have one
hey doxy!
the problem your friend is going to run into though, pam, is do they really want to drug the kitten until it's healed?
doing good mom- working - well actually i just took a break to score some words :)
i luv 'em too tyger!
hello, could someone clue the bi6?
you are working late tonight
have a good evening all. congrats to all the finishers.
HI Harpjane
No, they don't, jes. So, I think they will have to talk to the vet...
'sup all?
good night Doxy, pleasant dreams
later doxy

hey, carlee
not on this end here. Got a late start
perhaps they could get a big dog crate and keep the kitten in it when they can't watch him, so there's nothing to climb or jump off of?
we give our maine coon "rescue remedy" a homeopathic calming tincture, he is so high strung, it helps a little
That's an idea, jex, thanks!
Oh, thanks, harp--that's an idea...
glad to see some people are coming up with ideas for the poor baby kitty. what's his name, pam? :)
rescue remedy is usually ok (assuming you buy the actual one, not a cheap knock-off) but use it sparingly. "all-natural" does NOT equal "harmless".
Smudge, tyger==for the smudge on his nose
I'm not saying herbal stuff is useless-hell, most of our drugs are based on plants-but it's totally unregulated and you have no guarantee that what's on the label is what's in the bottle.
One of his moms is a critical care RN, so she will be very cautious, jex
*jes
My own senior cat LOVES catnip, so when she seems more ornery than usual, she gets a dose, LOL
heh. is ok, pam. you can call me that if it's easier ;)
that's the reason I mentioned catnip earlier, Pam. some cats get hyper on it; some cats zonk out. but you can't tell in advance which way a given cat will react
I am seemingly a lazy typist, so thanks!!!!
if Smudge were known to be the zonk out variety, catnip would solve the problem nicely
I will ask them about the catnip
no worries
Halfway mark for me, time for bed. Good night and pleasant dreams to all of you.
nite mom
et 5 please and thank you
good night Tyger
sweet zzzzzzzzz's mom
thanks Ren, don't stay up too late. Pleasant dreams
my nervous system is finicky enough, but the feline nervous system is far worse, and littermates often have different reactions to the same meds and herbals
the last sh6?
you know a lot about cats, tyger
et + I love to give dinner parties; I enjoy being a ***tess
I are one - sorta ;) but I had cats upon cats when I was a kid. My mom didn't like dogs
last sh6 is a yiddish word for village
nu 5/16 anybody?
harp, do you need another clue?
bletz, myah sh**** bletz
nm
ty tyger
nu5/16 is most of a word used poetically to refer to African women
yw, knitter
2 left, te 5 the first one and nu 5 please
nu + **ology is the study of life + first vowel
of 6?
of6 = most frequent
of 6 most frequent
lol
thanks got it

last sh 6/21
I can't see the lo7....
bye, AK
softs
okay, the first 3 letters are for what you call a piece of tree trunk. 2nd 3 letters are when you for*** something, and you pluralize :)
pam, that was for you
thanks--was doubling the wrong consonant
ruru, last sh6/21 is a jewish village (yiddish word)
last sh 6/21 anybody?
i always thought it was a ghetto, tyge, not a village
do you need a letter-by-letter breakdown?
but, I guess it is a village
I did, too, but I looked at dictionary.com
they say village
sh + misspelled french head + the letter that letter begins with, ru
sh + cross + ** cetera + consonant that looks like "one"
takes a village i guess. Im verklempt
LOL, ru
beltz, mayh sh**** beltz......it's a small town
finally got the sh6 thanks

Good evening all, here for the flip. Anyone need clues?
hi all -- hope to have more time for the next grid unless it's 750!
Hi jilli!
Next icon theme is Snakes in case anyone is interested
Those are my least favorite things, so I don't think I'll go there!
ah, but click on my profile, momof5!
evening all
I did. It is very intriguing. I had a childhood trauma that haunts me to this day. I avoid even thinking of thos 's' things if I can help it.
Hi moo!
hey jillibeans
Momof5, I was lucky to have read that story when I was very young and never had a childhood trauma like whatever yours was
Hi moo.
Moo, I like jillibeans -- makes me feel all cosy :)
I think it's mind over matter. My mind keeps me in the fear.
An aunt of mine had a dog called jillibee
What happened, mom?
hey mo2
ge5/14...the second one, anyone?
It was actually a lot of mixed up circumstances in a very little girl mind that made me terrified of 's'. A cousin who was hurt and rumor that it was a 's' that got him. I was 6 at the time. Nightmares for weeks and am afraid of 's' to this day.
people who you invite to your house...minus a vowel
hmm -- can't even write the word, eh, mo5? What a shame
I
I've been bitten by snakes
ty
non-venomous of course
Nope. Don't like to talk about, think about, write about or hear about them!
New subject please.
127 words
the in words anyone?
think IT banana
or I.T. if you prefer
well, mo5, just think of the big fat helpful Bi-Coloured-P-Rocker saving the Elephant's Child from the Croc, lol! (Did you ever read those stories?)
when you call 411, it is called ? - short word for and plural
just so stories :)
ty ty
Yep, moo
No. Never read them. Wasn't much of a reader, until recently. Most of my time taking care of kids.
a massive 711 word grid is coming. have plenty of caffeine by your side to get through it, people...
I remember the red cover and all
ho 5/12, not the stay at ones
ever the optimist ;)
good evening all -- wash your mouth out, DRB
I read them and re-read them over and over again, starting at about age 5, and still love them

I love snakes. Have several for pets.\
