Hello
Well. Drat! I woulda lost the price is right =P
hi infernal
Hey everyone
Evening lady
Hello and i will say very early Merry Holidays as i am going to be out soon
flosey -- I was an only child -- stocking was hung on the end of the bed to greet me when I woke up -- I still remember one time when I was four and had asked for a British flag, and there was a tin one in my stocking
hi all
Evening cathy
ah, lovely jilli
Jill that is a lovely memory
I hope you all have a safe christmas as i am likely to be vanishing soon
Happy Holidays? Hanukkah was Dec 5, eid was a few days ago -- this is CHRISTMAS!
have a great one herin
You, too lady. Have fun, but be safe.
flosey, I love YOUR story
Well some don't celebrate the birth of Christ.
Could mean Kwanza Jilli...
hi!
thanks jilli, great memories
is it Christmas there yet, infernal?
I am going to go have a dinner meeting with an ex bestie tonight
Harp its 5pm Monday here
there is a christmas word in the grid
have fun herin
Yes well this should be interesting tonight as i havent spoken to her in a month she apoligised to me
herin -- have a great time. It's just that Christmas is the name of this particular holiday, whether you celebrate it or not, just as Diwali is the name of the Hindu holiday.
ok, so you're in the Thick of Christmas Eve then
god speed!
and good luck, herin, making peace with your friend.
OK Safari is going kookoo bananas with babble.
Oh yes Harp. Jill that is partially true
Jill I don't know how it will go i am at a different point of my life now
i am stuck at 32 words so far
i don't understand why my icon won't change - is there something new i should be doing?
ok...this grid is allowing a proper name! hmmm
sometimes you can reconcile easier when you have moved to a different place in your life
I thought the same thing, Cathyar!
it looks different here, helen... 3 wise men.
Hah! I am stuck at one, mlf -- must pay attention to the gird!
Helen -- I see we all got e-mail from Fireman about the defunct Tangleword
must be a xmas gift to us from Dr. God!
have you tried "refreshing"?
my first was a ridiculous H word.
and i don't have a proper name except d4
ok then moon - i guess i'm the only one who can't see it
harp i am hoping
23 p words !!
I guess w4 is a proper name too
erda - i haven't checked that account - any (good) news?
HK -- your idon is beautiful -- the wise men and a star
now why do you want to do that jill?? arent you having fun just chatting lol
The one I found is a country
same here nonnie ;)
ca7
actually jill i am at 33 words now
so is ja but it's accepted
and howdy
thanks jili - maybe when i close everything down & re-open, i'll see it too - tomorrow
Not yet, Helen
ja what?
hi there freep
just hit F5 helen, if you have Windows
actually, ja5 is a word. It means "to cover with a thick coat of dark laquer"
helen are you on firefox or ie?
that's not a clue, it's a key on the keyboard
h9ow can there be a word from the upper H on the left?
Evening freep
oh, thanks moon
There is such a thing as having things "japanned"...
i just got a ja 5
hw jilli
for 24 pts
hi moon
upper h on the left?
got it, thanks moon
you mean middle h?
my ja5 is a 22 pointer
I don't think it's a Common use for the word, erda, but it's still a real non-noun
Interesting, moon...I learned something new!
yes, mlf, left side
yes jilli, and there's another
but it's legit, moon
i found words with the h above the e
oh good. I was worried I wasnt remembering it right LOL
pe7
have 2 but can't find the third mlfani
erda - just read my e-mail, have you tried those other games fire talks about?
what letter did you find two flosey the same h above the e?
it's the H above that, which has no vowels touching, that I was wondering about
it's a four letter word, jill, just monkey it (the H)
Tried two -- they are not as good as Tangleword...
mlf, flosey was talking about J words
jilli, that one reminds
jil if that makes a word or words i would question this site lol
that lone h is bablet
darn it. let me try again
jilli, that one reminds me of a chinese surname
i have found 3 ja words
ok, monkeyed it, thanks all
i don't much care for wordracer, the other i haven't tried, will check it out when i have some time (& inclination) - he is funny, lawyers, LOL

Melon sleep disorder google me

gogogo melon

And you couldn't smack them :D
heh. well technically, moon, when you hold your breath for any reason, you're ap*ic all it means is "no breath"
I think I've entered it a couple of times now =P
Holly crap i just realised 23 of my 26 words left to find is P words
hey, i very very rarely smack my patients! usually i just drug the crap out of any of them that threaten me ;)
shhh. Jes, you're gonna make me embarrassed lol
thanks jillibus - Hope your's is wonderful too!
HA ha Jes i like that one. Has te beasties got out again?
sorry, moon. don't mean to
mine? no. snow's too deep to dig under the fence. might figure out they can hurtle over the fence off the snow banks at some point though...
wow
right. I was Joking, jes. You can't embarrass me better than *I* can.
I do have new pics of me up at flicker
ca 7 hint?
i have the brit spelling ap7 but it is only 6 letters, am i silly?
heh. well, much as that could be taken as a challenge, moon, i'm still not trying ;)
ok, ru... it's a word. and it starts with c.
oh thanks funny person
bfsog - i was just thinking the same thing!
wow, jes, just read the poem in your profile!
sorry I couldnt resist LOl
kick in the gut, isn't it, jilli?
I've been wanting to do that for WEEKS now.
yes, jes
ca 7 clue someone
ok. sorry. I was crying.
*hands moon a tissue*
lol
ca7 = ca4.6 + a Local Area Network
omg. That's the best present I've gotten yet, ru, ty. I couldn't have Asked for a better straight line.
how on Enable is that j5 NOT a proper noun?
oh, we covered this earlier, jes. It's a form of laquering.
it's not just a noun anymore.
hmm. *remains skeptical about Enable's sanity*
moonwoof - I'm developing a new keyboard - one key for every word in the Enable dictionary. Then to solve the grid, you just slide down it like a slide.
ty for the ca7, moon
nice! But I have to ask.... which key would be for "plural"
yw jilli
moon - Gotta hold down the Plural Key like Shift for thise
fireworks
congrats, flosey
LOL That would be the BEST. and you could have a key for "latin plural" and one for omg
crying. i cant stop tnx
and the Biggest key says : Fireworks
stop looking, i found it! ;)
help me
huts hurtng
can't find the ca 7?
*tosses moonwolf a flotation device*
ca4+ ***d ho!

Is there much more beautiful than a love you'd give your life for?
Or am I being too "glass helf full"?
maybe at this time of year a glass half -elf full?
lol sure. If I coulda had it at Halloween =)
I see your point, moon
I would say "tragic, but touching."
whoa, I almost missed the volcano
?? something blows up in todays video?
I would say tragic and touched
*fireworks*
yea!!
yea!!
I'd say that if I were describing my love life. But since we were talking about a poem =P
i would say love
Congrats S
YAY SsSsS!!!!

Bye FM & Moon too !
Bye lynxx Dear, if I don't see you have a relaxing and Happy Christmas.
i had a great day too... hair washed, body bits waxed, nails lengthened... i am a new woman!!!
but we liked the old one !!
my hair is even curly!! something had to change... maybe my body will like the change and treat me right
old one indeed!! lol!!
Hope so MRP. Hows the house search going? Old - eek - you know how I meant that!
morning,evning all!
Hello MVA !
oh it has stopped for now... will look again in the new year hi mva!!
renting is nasty right now... i want to buy asap!
Well 2 options are better than 1 any day. Good hunting in the New Year!
MRP - Can you see my new baby? if not refresh
what a handsome boy, lynxxx!!
oh lynxx... gorgeous!!! vixie would love to meet him!!!
ah lyn - he's a handsome puppster
He is MVA and I think he will be a good dog once he gets more used to us...a lovely nature
they would make beautiful pups!!
whippet x sheltie are divine!!
con grats on your baby!!
umm Stewart has had a little operation - all GREYHOUNDS that go through the GAP adoption do.
oh darling!! stewart is still welcome to 'fool around doggie style' :) :) :) (((how uncouth of me!!)))
well, us ladies know the drill.... special occassions! :) LOL
MRP but you are the secod person today who said he was a whippet. He is the size of a female though - 26 kgs only. lol I am sure he would like to fool around - he is very playful
all he probably needs is love, time and more love lynnxxx
yes MVA - probably hasn't had much 'real' human contact in his first 2.5 years (in racing kennels) so will improve over the next few months
good on you for taking him in!! be tough and give him love when he earns it! we learned alot about that when vixie became a bitch!! she is very loving and obedient now!!
my dad had anex racerand after time he was the sweetest tempered dog out, my nephews learnt to walk by using him to pull themselves up!
Wow that's great - not many dogs of any breed would tolerate that
anyway I'll be off and wrap these presents and finish this off in the morning. MRP/Lickety ( & kids!)- have a wonderful & exciting day tomorrow! Bye for now
it took love, patience and time but he was a lovely dog... so love and look after stewart!
bye lynxxx, i'm going too, breakfast and last minute food shopping, bye all
bye lyn xx!! merry xmas!
ok we are having dinner outside .... gorgeous evening! love to you all!! merry christmas!

Bye the way, good morning all.
yay thx.. that was my last one... never heard of that word *looks it up*

You're welcome ice
acouple ppl ive seen have had something happen to need a refresh.. but I havent seen a 'and then it was lost' bit
thanks ice
yay now I can go to work later on and not have to be tempted to play when the boss is around

welp time for bed.. ttyl
Phantom - panther

hey BabbleRabble, good to see you! I lost many good quotes from your profile to my computer crash. Will have to go collect again :) Yeah, tiny grid and not too interesting, I fear. But better than nothing.
Hey people are back

Merry CHristmas eve to you and to yours

HI
Merry early Christmas

bah humbug
I am ok i just had a dinner with an ex friend didn't feel the same
yeap....been there...done that
how was the meal itself ?
So how are you my dear?
its christmas...so... miserable..i hate this time of year...
HUgs
hi carlee, angel
thanks....but in 1 week its all over...
hi sprite
and *hug* carlee, I know. I am just the same. Shitty time of the year.
I am not going to let it bother me this year. I spoke with the ex g.f and it was hard. I wasn't the same
i wish I could turf all the xmas stuff out the door
I just had to explain to my kids why I am so unstable at this time of the year, and I promised them we will make a lot of good memories this year.
my kids just know I hate this time of year
we can't, carlee, as long as we have kids. I will light a special, NON-Xmas candle for you and send the light and warmth straight to your heart :)
Thanks i have to go light a candle on the porch
thanks sprite...
Carlee i do send yuo a big hug
dearheart, if you wanna talk, my email is in my profile, ok? If you need someone who really understands how it is to live through this time of year while HUMBUG rules.
I saw someone last year and it changed my attitude. I cant really explain it
its ok sprite...its nothing tragic... its 2 fold..my personal beliefs..and a long history of disappointments at this time of year...
{{herin}}
that's just the problem... it is not really tragic. It is just hard. *hugs* anyway :)
Hello. I totally lack holiday spirit this year myself, despite a lovely solstice ritual yesterday.
:o)
happily, i don't have SAD issues.
He Dc
yea...throw in some SAD and that is me
hi dc....
rather sads
ah, is it officially a syndrome now. i guess that makes sense. :)
hello, sprite, lady, carlee. :)
its part of it...
hi dc! *hug* I love solstice. Much more in my line as well. And yeah, lots of sadness, and not wanting to participate in buybuybuy and eateateat and presentspresentspresents. We are celebrating Xmas in a very moderate way this year and we all feel good about that.
done
yes, and happily, today we begin getting longer days here :)
congrats, lady
congrats, lady!
Did you see my not so fat pics?
<pompom toss. for lady... w00t w00t
Thanks
what the heck is this... profiles refuse to open
they open for me. i've an espresso machine, carlee Eid al-Mubarak, and lady her cat looking holiday drunk :)
fireworks!
yeap..they open
oh, carlee, i'm taking Arabic this spring at the local community college.
congrats, Dan!
Yah Happy

thanks
:) sounds like a most excellent plan, sprite :)
http://tinyurl.com/36b3dp Sprite there is my profil pics
hm. i wonder if pe6/7 describes me sometimes; rather i worry that it does.
lady, you were beautiful before as well, but it is lovely to see how more defined your face is now, and you seem to look calmer as well. Congrats on taking it the slow way and taking care of yourself.
I have never felt there was any relation between you and the pe, dc.
ca 7/36 = what batman wears around his shoulders + another name for a wireless party
ty, sprite
thanks, both of you. Now all I need is the sleep one.
Thanks I had a hair cut since then. I needed it. No more lady Godiva hair
An early good morning o everyone on this beautiful Christmas Eve day. DC, you were an early riser this morning, too, or are you in Hawaii?
you are on your way to be your new self, it seems, lady. Slowly changing into yourself. :)
hi Merk!
Hi Merk
Sprite tonight was hard as i met the ex g.f. It was like an elephant in the room we were all trying to ignor
adjective of ap 6/21
yeah, that is not an easy thing. *hugs* Hope you feel you came out of it strong and in one piece.
i work nights, merk, slept fitfully part of night after being diurnal for the last couple days.
*share the buche de noel, complete with marzipan mushrooms*
owwww of course! Thanks :D
and a good morinng to you, merk!
Hi Sprite and Herin ... another small grid. Will it be hard?
thanks happydan, I meant :D
no, it is disappointingly easy, Merk. A quicky.
Happy early Christmas Merk
merk, i started 30 min ago, and i'm about 2/3 done.
OK
i am done
I was lurking and talking
Dc have you Christmas off?
no lady, i work tonight, the 24th, and tomorrow, the 25th.
i shall miss the rice pudding tonight.
are you still with us, BabbleRabble?
sprite, he's not online here right now
oh, stupid of me, could have checked that myself. Thnx, dc.
it only sometimes occurs to me to check :)
hw and qh were once common digraphs in English.
I am very dense today, very prone to crying and totally fuzzy about who to organise everything. Hubby yelled at the kids a little while ago and I went all depressed and hopeless. And then I wa4 to kick myself in the ass and then I remember that I am learning to be gentle with myself... arghhhhh. Let me babble till January 2nd.
where 'who' of course should have read 'how'. Nice illustration.
*hugs sprite* It will get better.
qho and hwo both existed in early forms of enlgish for who. and it parsed just fine :)
thanks dc :) It will. It must.
hehehe, that is nice :D Makes me smile.
i grew up in da4/5 city, virginia
sounds good to me, dc. Like there are mountains near.
Half done
Dc do you get New YEars Eve?
Just the people I was hoping to wish happy holidays to =)
merry christmas eve
Hugs SPrite
i'm up at 6 am now, eating breakfast and hoping to get some things done before everyone else wakes up
mountains lay 75km to the NW of where i grew up, Sprite. Some days, we got, and my nephew still gets, a day off from school because the County can't get a school bus up Bull Run Mountain at the other end of the county. I grew up near the confluence of the Potomac and Occoquan Rivers.
heyyyy woof! *hugs* Received the emails yesterday and moved the email directory to a save drive, so it will not happen again that I lose everything. I hope you have a wonderful Xmas and may there be Light in your days and your nights, hun!
moon and feather! hi! :D
lovely, dc. Funny thing... when you tell stuff like that, I start feeling better.
very happy holidays to you both!
hi feather. If only babble, right? ;)
Morning Dc. Happy day to you, too, although I'm sorry to read you'll be missing pudding.
and the same wishes for you, feather.
hehe, well i do see it's a small grid....perhaps just a few itty bitty words before i start the day?
And as long as you're around sprite, I'll always have a Light.
happily, my life centers not on pudding :) nor on cherry sauce to have with it.
When I met my parents-in-law for the very first time, they served ricepudding with berry juice as dessert. I managed to work my way through it without flinching, behaving so very perfectly.
Someone mentioned food and it made me hungry. bbl
ah, finally got the wireless bit of the ca7 clue. ty whomever that was :)
ciao, merk
oooo. Cherry sauce. I dunno Dc. Sounds like a difficult choice. Of course, it doesn't help that I'm hungry.
dairy agrees w/you not, sprite?
And then, second round of dessert, and hubby-to-be takes a huges portion. I hand him the berry juice. He says, not too much, darling, or I cannot taste the ricepudding anymore.
Cya Merk. Happy day!
and I blurt out: "That is what the juice is for!"
LOL sprite! oopsie!
bye Merk, take care of you!
LOL sprite :)
Danish rice pudding is quite unlike rice puddings we eat here in the States.
in a good way.
yeah, a blooper I will never ever live down. And my inlaws are both gone!
It's actually good that you got that out of the way early, in your relationship, sprite... I stepped on my nuts yesterday, with my boys family...
lol, true woof. What happened?
I'm pretty sure I'll know if it wasn't too bad, if he doesnt file for divorce =P
oh, what passed, moon?
umm, is that middle H an HW?
Oh mahn... It was straight out of a Chaplin movie. I swear I felt like I was on Candid Camera...
that bad, hm? LOL...
oh, there's alpo in the grid today :)
yes, feather
feather: yes, HW4, babblet.
I'm a Complete Clutz. I'm a good natured menace to myself on a Good day...
unit of currency in Korea, the hw.
aha! i knew it was a babblet, but for the life of me couldn't see it. just did now.
sounds endearing to me
You know Dc. I tried to enter that like 4 times... It Kept telling me it wasn't a word. Silly game.
yay feather
hey buddies, and yet another itsy bitsy grid i see 8-)
Well, it is, I guess... As long as you dont rip your father-in-laws toupee off his melon.
sometimes it does that with valid words, moon. On some occaisions one most clear cookies and restart game to get them to take, or at least sign out and back in.
morning, gwen :)
hi Gwen, yes, one of the most uninteresting ones I played in ages. Alas. But we will see what tomorrow holds...
I tripped over my nephew who was diving for the dog who got scared by Something and I grabbed the closest thing to me for support.
lolllll woof... you did that? Wonderful! Might give him the courage to do without ;)
and a happy no4 to everyone LOL
oh fabulous, moon
lol gwen... nice one! Same to you!
merci, gwen, et a vous aussi!
Sadly, however, he used spirit gum on his toupee... And I ripped it Straight off his head before my hand (clutching the toupee, of course) Right into the green bean casarole.
sprite, thanks for letting me know how uninteresting it's going to be (!) LOL
Evening Gwen. Happy morning.
omg woof!
I was MORTIFIED
I give you the option to not play before you start, grin.
I Totally dont embarass easily... but OMG
LOL moon
what did he say/do?
woof, could they laugh? Or did they all go and made you feel worse? You are in NO WAY to blame, lol.
howdee moonwoof
Charley Chaplin's ghost is HAUNTING me. Or a stooge. I dunno...
Merry Christmas Babblers!!!
heh, interesting, the no4/4...
oh, and BTW, i'm gonna do this grid if it kills me 8-)
It was horrible for like 30 seconds. The ones that feel like Hours...
ty, lore, and to you too! :D
merry Xmas, loredana
lore!!!!!!! Hi darling, may there be Light in all of your days and all of your nights.
Merry Xmas lore/
everyone laughed, i hope?
*grins evilly at Gwen* So you should, dear, so you should...
Sprite thank yhou for your wonderful words and may the same radiate back to you hugs
*hugs lore right back*
hi moonwoof and dc s great to see you
Well... His dad didnt take it too bad. Said something about making sure to watch out for his nuts...
LOLLLL woof!
Ducking in and out. Merry Christmas eve to you all
My hubby Finally made it better when he said (and this is Another Bright Moment in the rolladecks)
oh, fabulous moon!
hey Herin Merry Christmas
hubby can stay, woof! He is a good one.
"She's not that clumsy on her back." - He either hates me or loves me. I'm not sure. I'm hiding in the basement.
hee!
LMAO!
whaaaaaaaaa he is wonderful! I bet you are still blushing.
ok, got 52 words, off to get busy with other things. cya later!
hello heather feather Merry Christmas
hm. the last 2 APs can't be legal terms, not enough Ps and Ls.
same back atcha lore! bye!
I so am... I'm sure I'll be able to laugh soon... but, it's still so close to harsh.
Wow. That was quick lore. Congrats.
be proud, woof. You managed to NOT answer your hubby's dad with: "your nuts are save as long as you don't offer them as support to me when I fall again"
I Seriously think I'm going to blame the stooges.
*save = safe
I just couldnt believe he Glued it on! Who GLUES a toupee??
good idea, woof, good idea. This will be a perfect Xmas story for years to come.
he had little red marks where it was stuck..
historcaly, more people than you'd think, moon.
woof, if I knew why people wore them, I might be able to answer why they glue them.
I love bald heads. Picard is ever so sexy.
I knew it was a toupee. *I* did. But apparently my neice and nephew had No idea, and they just stared.
sprite, do you know Christine Lavin's "Bald Headed Men"?
It kinda felt like I stepped on the Easter bunny.
Picard Is sexy. But I can ignore bald for that accent.
I don't, dc?
eegad -- !
Hello Babblers... Merry Christmas
Moon you make me laugh
Christine Lavin is a tongue-is-cheek folk artist. i think you'd like her work.
Morning Nono. Merry Xmas to you, too.
morning, Nanett, and to you too! D:
:D rather
Merry Christmas Nono
reminds me of that easter cartoon, woof. Where the easter bunny is sitting next to someones slippers when the person gets out of bed and shoves his foot... well, you got the picture.
Good god, I hope someone is lady. I So do.
hi Nanette, merry Xmas.
I've seen the cartoon, yeah =)
sounds good to me, dc!
I just couldnt even believe my luck. That must have been at least 3 mirrors checked off my Karmic list.
fireworks :)
Congrats Dc. =)
woohooo congrats DC
pleasantly simple grid today.
more, for sure, woof. Far more.
woopee dc s
yayyyyyyy dc! *pulls dc under the mistletoe and gives him a kiss8
wtg dc~~~!!!
(where the 8 was either wishful thinking or a typo)
I swear. That stuff is Only supposed to happen on sitcoms fcol
:"> thanks, yall
even sitcoms have a foot in reality, moon :)
I love it, woof. I know you must have felt terrible, but it is a great thing :D *hug*
I think it will be tomorrow, if the hubby's still here. And I suppose it's true, Dc. I just never expected to physically channel Robin Williams.
All I can hope, right now, is that he's up there getting his dad so drunk he won't remember. =P
Or cleaning the toupee lol
Ok. I feel better.
Good Morning all, may I please have clues for the 7's
they will tease you with this remorselessly, woof, and hubby will remind you next time you are errr... on your back or something... and then it will be forgotten until next family dinner and Xmas... ;)
oh no.
how much is babble fee for life, guys?
Enuf about that. What're your big plans, today?
ap7 as adj of the 6.
us$15, sprite
morning everyone :-)
Morning Katie.
pe7 is plural.
15 or 14,95?
morning, katie!
morning katie
i don't recall, and haven't found where to go to find out, Sprite. If i could, i'd buy some gift memberships.
Can't you? I'm surprised there isn't a way...
i believe it was 14.95
If I recall sprite, it was 14.95. but 5 cents {{shrung}}
ca7 - What a superhero often wears + a home network.
Thanks all!
hey, how come i can't pluralize nth? 8-(
dc, TY, excellent clue!
If there was a way I'd buy memberships for Uniquity and Lori. Telling which one is mom is gonna make me buggy.
thanks don't have the ap6 yet will look
because it's to the nth degree.
woof, hold that thought, lol. Check email.
working on the ca7
dc, Ata says: you can do that by paypalling money to drG.
Great minds and all that =)
but what if i have several things and they are all nths? LOL
ya know, the simplicity of that did not cross my mind, though that makes sense. ty, sprite.
got the first part of the ca7 but not the last
hello Merry Christmas Peri
HI lore, Merry Christmas to you too

bye bye Merk have a nice day
carlee, I will not even send you to the sinbin for that, lol. I will just hug you.
snow. it rained this weekend. Snow at xmas has happened 3x in my life here.
It's a Bill Cosby comedy bit. About making breakfast for his kids. Dc sugar line reminded me of it.
no, they are kind of unwords.
i thought xmas snow was a myth perpetuated by TV for many years.
oh, now that you say Bill Cosby, I remember! I loved that show as a kid.
I think we only get it about 1ce every 5 or 6 years
Actually, Dc, it's "secretly" perpetuated by Minnesota, and most of Canada =P We got a Ton yesterday.
same here, carlee. Not very common, but it happens.
yes, when i lived in Boston, it'd been snowy since early Nov :D
no worries sprite..i always drop 1 word per grid...that was my drop
I can show you what it looks like... You opena blank word document... Well. like that.
Afternoon all. Popping in again to wish Happy Christmas to those I haven't already seen today.
lol carlee, ok!
here, it's about 1ce every 15 years. ur snow is a pa4 yellow?
lol woof
Wb Mitch! You still look smashing.
hi fm
hello FMitch Merry Christmas to you as well
hi FMitch! *hug*
hello, fmitch!
afternoon FM great to see you Merry Christmas to you and a Happy New Year
Uhm, no Dc. We have newer monitors lol
oh, what a fabulous dress, fmitch! smashing picture :)
going to the clue list at last. narf.
i have my background colour for white things set to pa4 yellow - it's easier on the eyes.
Merry Christmas to everyone
Isn't that a great pic? She looks great in red. And I Adore the necklace.
happy xmas to you, too roaslind!
Nice pic FM. Happy Christmas everyone.
To you, as well, rosa
And Frances.
UNO
Hi moon and thank you again Hello Nono and spriety sprite and lore and dc and oh ... everybody!!! Moon I made the necklace.
Seriously??
help, stuck on the na5!!
Yup, ribbon and beading from market stall and double sided tape (was in a hurry) would normally have stitched it.
it is lovely FMitch!
That is cooler than Santa, Mitch.
na5 sounds like nailed.
hmmm, another new silly word
It's beautiful, Mitch, truly.
Cost about $5 :)
hm. Feldspar is into something. i'm afraid to go look.
good, nois stopped. either she went away, or whatever it was is destroyed :)
TY and fireworks!
Ok. Well now it's beautiful and you brag lol
yay gwen! well done
very cute bonus video today: bunny show jumping! (sic)
Yay congrats Gwen
bragging is good!
Good job, gwen. Way to stick it out =)
btw, dc, i like your icon. looks like a little robot
does anyone know what might cause the profiles to not open for me?
the bunny show was really cool/
And yours still kinda looks like a dalek =)
do you have a popup blocker on sprite?
sprite: i get that sometimes. could be a browser issue. have you done browser maintenance lately?
LOL
it's an Elektra w/bakelite handles espresso machine :) R2D2 meets coffe. it's actually taller and slimmer - it's a rectangular photo squashed.
moon, ummm, it IS a dalek LOL
time for breakfast here bbl
thats me done great video hope scrabbler gets to see it... thanks bb
It is Now. =)
njoy, nanette!
Cya nono
<POMPOM TOSS> for lore
ew, you squished a coffeemaker! LOL
bye nono
thanks carlee!!!! hugs
well done lore!!!
Ok. You're still on coffee. I thought maybe you wanted santa to bring you a robot lol
Gwen: I just reinstalled the whole works, windows, browser, everything.
so, i was looking for cute pix of cats to print out on "to: from:" labels for my cousin and the internet has millions of cat pix! Unfair to daleks who don't have so many pix!!
popup blocker... yes... is on. Let me check.
sprite, you're running windows. that is always the firth thing i blame . . .
It truly is. It Must be discrimmination.
LOLLL Gwen! Yeah, computers are like airplanes... never open windows!
When I grow up, I want to have a Mac.
ROFL so true, sprite!
in fact, Babble is the only thing I use IE for, since it doesn't run well on Firefox
that's true for me at home, too gwen. only cause Lickety wrote it that way.
Nothing wrong with Windows or have I been lucky also use IE fine!
I use firefox... It seems fine to me... Except when the whole site freaks out.
same for me fm
mitch, how can you say nothing wrong with windows!!! ack!
LOL Gwen.
How ya doing carlee, hanging in there?
how do i love windows? let me count the ways. ummmmm . . .
i never used babble in IE at all until i started babbling from work, where we only have IE.
darn, I cannot get it to work, I hate this. I want to see that necklace. Etc.
oh well, why didnt you ask?? silly girl.
sprite I'll email you a pic if you like
is it a kind of security setting?
IE, google, yahoo, and other toolbars can block pop-ups, unless a site is excepted.
sprite, perhaps they will simply email you the jpeg?
please do, FMitch! Thanks so much!
ummmm . . .
I am gonna put babble into the green zone, see if that helps
I already did, mitch. But yours would prolly be better quality
in, IE, yes, sprite. Pop-ups are managed through Tools>Internet Options
Back in a sec, pootles off to email
ummmm . . .
thanks to you both! But not having the profiles s*cks big time anyway... guess I do need to fix it after all, dc :(
good morning all
Ok, there
is One reason to like windows. You can adjust stuff =P
morning, phan!
ummmm, no, you can adjust stuff on a mac too
Morning phan. Merry Xmas!
is everyone ready for x-ms?
ummm . . .
lol
Not like on a PC. I've owned both and I came back.
ah, ah, ah, file sharing is usually easier if you have windows. okay, that's one . . .
phand, by ready you mean what, exactly? LOL
I couldn't upgrade the Mac like I can my pc. Especially the laptops. The graphics Arent quite as good, tho.
Thankfully, Phan, neither my dogs or my cats are allowed to have a calendar, so I'm totally ready =)
and i work tonighht and tomorrow night, so i'm ready.
plus there's enough pressure without this chat room turning into a pressure zone too LOL
Oh, I forgot to ask, Dc. Did you settle on something for your mom?
no more shopping baking, wrapping, cleaning
so, by that def, I am not
I have cleaning to do
i bake today..my hubby has one more gift to get
I used to do a lot of astrology and the programs just did not run on a Mac. So I used PCs and now I am used to them.
no, moon. there's always gift certs for borders, whicth she loves.
dc, what do you do? are you in the medical field?
Ok. I really Was hoping for the theater escort tho. I think that coulda been classy =)
well, kids, i am off, time to take my early morning nap 8-) **a-la-kazaam!**
by bdg
Cya Gwen. Have a good day =)

thnx woof, your email is arriving now too.
Aloha Babblers!
That's cool, Dc. My favorite Xmas' have been sunny.
well deserved, FMitch! You are radiant!
Aloha Fran! Merry Christmas.
Aloha Frannie
hi moon! hi FM!
hi fran
what a lovely picture FM!
hi carlee!
hi sprite!
hi dc!
(did i miss anyone?)
morning, fran; ur up late!
I cannot get the profiles to open, it drives me mad. I am gonna email lickety and I will leave it rest for now.
Frannnnnn! *hug* I missed YOU :)
( try openning babble on its own..without lickety....
then try profiles )
i know dc, just dropped in to say hi before bed
thanks sprite!
same problem, carlee, I tried that as well
i was catching up on e-mails and other things since we were out all day and look at where the time went!
Awww... That's the second best present I've gotten, today. Fran stayed up for us!
hmmm..then am stumped
lol moon
{{let me have my delusion fran, it's been a rough night.}}
woof needs all the love she can get, lol
this is the place to get it. :-)
thanks for the email FM!!
it is not related to the expert, that is for sure. And not sure about the popup thing. Usually I can open any popup by clicking on it with Cntrl held. Does not work either.
oh look, a word that goes with our theme today
reboot?
Glad to send it Fran, yours has arrived too :)
sprite, try crtl+click on icon, pls, and tell me what happens.
oh good. :-)
anyway..off to sofa for a bit....
You'd'a been proud, tho. It involved green bean caserole. And it has been good. I would say maybe even Wise to come here.
enjoy, carlee.
enjoy the day all..happy christmas to those I may miss later on
lol dc, see my last post...
You too, carlee. have a good day.
sprite I had the same thing on Friday and it was around the same time babble and sudoku went a bit slow and glitchy, then it was all ok again after about an hour.
oh, i see. does the sceen do anything when you do that, or just nothing?
bye carlee! have a good day. (hug)
take care, carlee. Am thinking of you and helping to carry the burden a little. Wind beneath thy wings, darling!
Bye carlee
the blue bar at the top goes light, as if there is another page active, that is all.
ok, might try later then as well, FMitch, but it has been this way since the reinstall, I am afraid it is not due to a server problem, alas.
Ah well in which case resort to the old fashioned way of fing things and kick it *grin*.
tools>internet options>security>pop-up blocker shed no light on the matter, i gather.
sprite, on my husband's laptop sometimes the shift or control key locks even if i haven't pressed it and that causes strange things to happen.
nope, dc, I even tried with unabled blocking and they still do not appear.
sprite, when you go to your window menu, do you just have the one window open?
lol FMitch, that sounds like me :)
hi, all!
hi TOwl!
hi TO!
Yay TO Happy Christmas
Morning TO. Merry Christmas!
not sure I know what you mean, Fran?
great icon TO!
merry christmas back atcha!
Her cat gnomes =)
or should i say ,ele.kaliki. heck fran, you know!
I saw them and half expected to see a new Travelocity commercial. =)
mele kaliki...whatever
sprite, i'm thinking the profile windows may be hiding behind the active one
close enough TO!
mele kalikimaka me ha hau'oli makahiki hou!
ah, I see. No, I checked that, they are not on my bottom bar either. They just not appear. Thanks for helping me thing!
Fran what does that translate to?
sorry if i'm mentioning things you've already attempted. :-)
Ok, Fran... I have a silly question.... Does "Mekeleka Hi Meka Hiney Ho" mean anything? (Go ahead and laugh, it's pho-en-et-ic)
merry christmas and happy new year FM.
Hi, sprite, temple, Fran, moon, mitch. Merry (almost) Xmas!
only if you're pee wee ; )
hi hydra!
hi hydra! nice to see you!
Is That what that's from?? That's bugged me for YEARS.
hi hydra!
It sounds great that way Fran Hi hydra
Hiya Hydra. =)
what language were you talking in? Hawaaian?
<----------BIG pee wee fan
yes hydra
Apparently *I* was speaking dork.
LOL nothing personal TO
<----------- BIG large marge fan
wtach it woof - i'll sic my cats after your dog ; )
That could suck. Ok. You win.
So basically, it didnt mean anything, right?

Caya and Tim! Merry Christmas darling children!! Santa loves you and so do we!
i'm here for a while.
so doren i am off until jan 7!!!!!!
same here, TOwl, I bet I made some mistakes with that as well. Let me just say a general hi and bye with lots of warmth to all :)
that's quite a vacation owl.. how did you manage that, and what are your plans?
please, can someone help me here? I cannot find my last word, not even with lickety's list. It is the pa4/9 after the trousers. I am already holding a fish ready to slap myself.
well - work interfered with the week i saved for medical. and i never picked out the tile so no bathroom redo yet. and i lost a day or so not having time to take them. bascially excpet for fest i never taook a vacation. i don't recommend that. : /
do you play chess sprite?
change the chess piece ending
only at a totally basic level, Dorens.. I once learned to play, but I suck at strategy.
oh no, owl vacations are a true necessity
Sprite - a chess piece (the smallest).
use the consonant before the "m"
sprite - to hock.
sprite. that question was a clue!!!!!lol
oh, tsssss, I am TOO dense here. I have a chess piece, but it is my very last pa4/9. I need the one before that? Right after the trousers?
Merry Christmas MrP and Lickety!!!
use the consonant before the "M"
change the last consonant.. sounds like a man's name
for the ending
sprite - in that case it's the word that sounds like my Other Half's name.
hi pink!! merry christmas to you too!!!
Dorens I apologise for being SO stupid, lol. I realise now it was not a question. Sigh...
hi lil!
p + night bird, spelt with an 'a'
hey sprite, no need to apologise.... anyway, I didn't have the word you needed then, not using llist... but after you said, that then i played around with last consonnat. hi pink
Jac, that did it! Thanks all of you for the help to this dense lady. Fireworks at last. Jac, may there be Light in all your nights and all your days, hun. Thanks for the beautiful card!
hi TO....where are you off to?
hi owl!!! merry xmas!!
doren when are you going to MA?
merry xmas jac!!
HUZZAH for you sprite.....sorry my clue didn't speak specifically to you.
Merry Christmas, sprite.xxx
hi bbnaz, merry Xmas
merry christmas to those of you who are there.....
merry xmas bbnaz!!!
merry christmas mr. p! i was only feelilng the stress, but i am beginning to feel the love!
it was not because of your clue, bbnaz, just because of my thickness here... thanks for trying!
merry christmas, bbnaz!
oh we are feeling the love here!! it is wonderful!!
not quite there yet. tonight is the Eve and plenty of singing for me.
going up on Friday.....the whole gang came here friday night and we opened stockings and presents on Saturday morning... then phoebe's family drove down to MD that afternoon, Rachel and her bg flew out to detroit to see his family and D & J stayed until last night. so i already had christmas. it was lovely
I am so happy that xmas is here!! I wish you all the best xmas and happiness like we have!! :) :) :)
babble is a avery good place to connect to love in stead of stress and sadness. I feel connected to you guys in a very warm and strong way.
merry christmas to you to bbnaz
singing is one of the best things, bbnaz. I am going to put on some mantras on Xmas and we will sing with the kids, and do some drawing and colouring mandalas. It will be great.
and same feelings here sprite... sometimes when I'm really blue i just read the chat for a while without saying hello, but still feel better knowing you're all out there
mrP!!!!!!
I would love for lickety to take a pic of me right now!! and wish you all a merry xmas right now from my heart! would that be ok with you all?
sounds lovely, doren. phoebe will stop onthe way back, too?
http://tinyurl.com/2jetxt
lovely, mrP! But, but, but... I need you to answer my question!
more than ok., mrp
lovely, lickety! They are adorable! Touched me.
oh lickey that was cool!
rockets for me.....finally!
congrats bbnaz
yay bbnaz!
lickety she sounds so sweet...its heart warming!!!
owl, they're stopping on the way back at my mom's (hackensack is right on the way, and the trip is too long to ask them to come out of the way).. But i'm going up there for next weekend , will babysit new year's eve etc., and have lots of time then
such lovely children and the singing isn't bad either!
so lickety need more videos?
oh was it real time? have i missed it?
i missed Saturday's puzzle but loved watching the murat piece once again....thanks for using the ones I submitted
ok, I give up on the email, mrP, hope you will see it some day and get back at me, lol. I have to be off, spend some time with my kids and my love. Thanks for being my babble buddies, all of you. May you all find Light in all of your days and nights... see you tomorrow :)

merry xmas boo!!
Does anybody reckon that the puzzle on Christmas Day (stateside of course) will be large? This is my first Christmas in Babbleland.
I ran off to the loo. No, Doren, no trip to NJ, but maybe in the spring. I do want to meet you & Owl sometime. (Hmm, do YOU want to meet goofy Scrabbler?)
We shall find out, boo.
Good morning Babble!
Oh my goodness! Mrpresident, you are Gorgeous!
Surely Dr God will know that we'll have no time to babble on Xmas day, so it will probably be just two words -Merry Christmas!
Yes boo - I can vouch for that - and I don't need to be biased
Ah, the beautiful Michelle! Merry Christmas to Lickety, Michelle, Luke & Maddie and the dog!
our own babble beauty queen... merry christmsas again, to mrP
thanks scrabbler!
and dorens!
I will make time to babble on Christmas. Then again, I'm not a parent :) That is a beautiful photo Lickety and MrP
scrabbler I most definitely do!!! le us know in advance if you can so i can be sure to be available... and owl too
Hi Uniquity. There's so many of us here right now; how lovely!
Someday, Doren!
Doren, I have separation anxiety when I leave my rabbits.
i actually want a decent sized grid for christmas... .my kids and I did christmas saturday, since they are going elsewhere.. so friday nite was christmas eve for us.
FIREWORKS!:-)
I'd better to and get on with my work. Merry Christmas to you all.
Whoooeeeee! Well done Jacula!
i understand that scrabs. do you have someone who comes and takes care of them? yay jacss
I've just been entranced by the vodeo of Lickety and family...and the similarity between his licking son and my brothers... YAY JACULA!
Yahooo Jacula! Please give Flossie a big Christmas snuggle from me and my bunnies.
Yes, there is a responsible teenage girl up the street, but, still I have trouble surrendering control.
WHen I go to Boston to see Phoebe (which is once a month) I don't like to be away from the cats for more than two nights.
hey guys!!!
So you understand, Doren.
Hi Johnny
this one looks hard today
hello johnny.....absolutely scrabs, but I still want to meet you.
My first 27 have come rather easily but now it is tough.
it is a bit challenging jr
Hi, Scrabbler - I'm at 28 right now - so I know what you mean.... Hi, Babblers- Merry Christmas to all!
aplei
on no
Well, I have to get ready for work and the drive up north. Even if the office is quiet from parents not wanting to drive in the snowstorm, I am going to give Xmas presents to my friend's (with cancer, in the hospital) kids. Mary will not be home for Xmas and I am sad.
penalty box for me!
come on, JBV, give us a real word.
just monkeying around, sorry
oh, sad scrabbler. nice that you are going...drive carefully
Good morning all, why can't we have a big one on a day when I have time?
Hi all
Happy Christmas to all who are celebrating today! Joy and Peace and all good things to you and yours!
Hi and by, Scrabbler
good mornin
hi marc... this might be small, but it is taking more time than some of the larger ones.. hi ch and peri
The husband spoke to me yesterday and he is struggling the most. But the focus is on the kids. I will visit Mary in the hospital too. She is brave and getting stronger.
Hi Periwinkle, my Noggin friend!
Hi marc and ch and frantique
Hi Scrabbler hope this next year is less struggling for all in your life
:D
But life is always full of struggles.
Need a clue for ca7/36, please?
Bye buddies!
bye scrabs
Life should be full of bliss and happiness, ignore the struggles
Happy holidays all from the "great white north" !
Hey Lucien, Happy HoHo!
and you as well, lucien
ca7/36, please?
dont have it yet marc...
don't have it marc.. hi uniquity
ok
I've been so distracted by chat I don't have any words yet...whew
I guess I will have to struggle along
Bacon said, life is "lucid intervals, happy pauses".
marc, you just said to "ignore the struggles" !!
Or maybe he was referring to madness ... I can't remember :)
I know, ironic isn't it?
Hi Marc...is is a small fish and starts the same as the ca r/y befoe it...
yep..
down to 30 left.. better get ready for work :(
oops the ca 4/6 is mean...
oh my...better stop trying to type!
what is the r/y if have the small fish?
bye Lady !
later all... Merry Christmas
Sorry Marc...not a great start to my day! It should read "starts the same ans the ca 4/6 before it"...
FYI: last Dec 24th we had 182 words and Christmas Day we had 284. I happen to be a list maker and was watching to see is there was any pattern to the size of the grids... not nerdy enough to determine any, but it is fun to look back. Have a Merry Christmas to those who celebrate ... time to bake and cook for tonight!
Yes I understood but there is a ca5/14 between but I still don't get it
tx read .. and enjoy !
read knit bake, do you recall the very large one we had early july. i think 535 or something like that, and a very small one a few days before or after... 38 or so? do you have the facts on that?
ok, try the 5/6 then ad la 4/5 minus the e
oh rats...I mean the ca 4/6...better go back to bed!
Merry Christmas Eve everyone.
merry xmas mom!!
Jul 9th was 535. I did not finish that one. It was 68 the day before and then I was gone for 12 days on vacation . Jul 25 was the 38. I know I am not the only one who keeps lists thought...it has been discussed in chat.
Hey Read-Knit-Bake I recently learn't that Dr God makes Grids in advance - and I know cause he ran out a while back and had to make another batch - so if he really wanted to, he could move them around.
to you as well, mom!
Hi, again, I'm working on this and I am not getting the clues, either - ca 7/36
Dorens, I am like Read Knit Bake, I have that on July 25 we had 38
hi marc! merry xmas!
hi mom! merry xmas!
lol Read Knit Bake, I thought you had left so I was going to answer Dorens for you.
thanks rkb... and mom. i often have people ask about the smallest, and I thought it was 38 in july. and I certainly remember the 535 cause I did do that.
thank you Dorens
hi mom - happy holidays !
Hi JBV
hi mr president and mom Merry Xmas to all of you and your loved ones

Merry Christmas everyone! Have a good one. It's 1am Christmas Day here now~

Merry Christmas!!!
Merry Christmas Uni

Maybe that's it...feels unlikely to me as that was a busy day, but perhaps! Thanks Mom
congrats Liz
Was looking at the wrong ca4/6 but leave off the last letter and add the first 3 letters of la4
Uniquity - the clues page has some interesting stats - like biggest grid and smallest grid (that I've seen anyway)
you're welcome Uni

congrats to liz!
Right, so everyone's just being Christmas spirity, good, I really thought I was losing my grip on global matters LOL
mrp, you are gorgeous!
Happy Holidays again Lickety and to all peace and joy! Even though our immediate children and grandkids gathered for the last two days here in MA, my husband and I will celebrate with our mothers and siblings tonight and tomorrow...really have to leave this wonderful group to get ready for our Eve and Day's activities! The oven beckons!
Oh yeah, Lickety, I adored reading the facts when i started using the list!
RKB, have a wonderful christmas
again, RKB, enjoy !
I cannot see the la5

past tense marc
tx feather
hey, peeps
feather, you gave the clue for the ja5/24
hi there tyger ! - happy holidays !
hello tyger
ja5/22 is also the name of a country, but it's for a lacquering process
thx, monty

I hope the other foreign langauge contingents come through
no5/12, please?
I didn't try to do anything at this time on Saturday, and as a result wasn't able to get online at all. :( and my ISP (a MAJOR provider) didn't get back online until around this time yesterday :( :( :(

thanks everyone, off to get on with the rest of my day
good point, peri
later, peri
enjoy ((((peri))))
have a wonderful day Peri
I need to go pretty quick. any more clues needed?
Sorry Marc, thought you wanted the na5, not the no5.
ca6 maybe tyger ?
I was rather frustrated with the absurd misspelling of the ancient Greek laudatory poem
I have zero 7 letter words....nuts
ca6 is PT verbing of preceding ca5
ap7 is adjectivization of preceding ap6 - Brit spelling of interrupted breathing during sleep
tx tyger, got it !
pe7 is plural of pe6 - highly knowledgeable, often fussy, people
thanks, tyger -
ca7 - ca4/6 + combined computer circuit
yw, peeps :)
got the pe...still working on the ap
same here green
pe5/14, please?
greeny, you realize that Brit spellings usually involve extra vowels?
bycicle part marc
pe 5/14 part of a bike
ca 5/12, please
weeeeeee FIREWORKS!!
pe5/14: not manual (hands), but pe*** (feet)
yay, nono
yep...the only sleep disturbance I am thinking has to do with the adnoids...i am trying to monkey it
thanks montreal does the pe6 work off of it?
congrats, Nono
wtg nono ! - no marc, tyger just clued the pe6/7
I changed my icon, did it really change?
ca5/12: a water vehicle - original ones were made of birch bark
yes it does got it
gingerbread house, inge?
Good, now we are Christmassie?
yup! :)
thanks, tyger for the ca 5 and 6
yw, annie
off to try sudoku. Mediums always kill me.
later, inge
got the ap's...thanks
bye, inge, enjoy
yw, greeny
guess i better head to the kitchen to make tomorrows dessert
now for the ca
have a great day everyone and happy babbling
meey christmas inge\1!
hagd inge and good luck with the sudoku !
the last clue I need promise the first pa5/12, please?
enjoy Nono !
that ap (for others) often results in doctors prescribing breathing machines for sufferers to wear at nite
or...you can have your adnoids removed, but that doesnt always work
trousers marc
*F*I*R*E*W*O*R*K*S Merry Christmas everyone
ap ---sleeping in fits and starts, brit spelling
congrats, scary
congrats scary\1!
1st pa5/12 is the one that made me angry. It's a misspelling of the ancient Greek laudatory poem - substitute 4th vowel for usual 1st vowel
yay, deb
No that is the second pa5/12
nope, that's the first one in the list
wd scary - Merry Christmas to yo and yours !
trust me, Marc, I'm looking at the finished list :)
2nd pa5/12 is what men wear on their legs
I meant the one that Montreal clued not yours, thanks
or plural of pa4/5
hi tiger - could it be an alternate spelling for the pe 4/5 - feudal term?
oh, okay
bbl...i have some emergency dinner shopping to do today, and i am starting bright and early to beat the major crowds....
don't think so, JBV
Got it tyger thanks
later green - enjoy !
We actually get that word often
okay, I checked dic.com & it says from Latin, not Greek. color me somewhat mollified :P
got the 1st pa5...finally - tx !
yw, Marc
VG, monty
Well, I only have 2 words to find.
hi marc.... merry xmas!!
got 60...
hi tyger! merry xmas!
18 to go...
I'm working on he 4/6 - need a clue, please
hi montreal! merry xmas!
hey, MrP
thx & Merry Christmas to you!
and i have three hydra, but they are definitely hiding
jbv. he + a dipthong (at least i think that's what it is... two consonants)
he4/6: he + **ere you go!
about 5 more minutes, all. what else do you need clued?
much better clue, tyger
thx, dorens
Joyeux Noël ((((mrp))))
Fireworks! Bye all and have a wonderful Christmas.
http://tinyurl.com/2btvf5 is our merry xmas to you
i'm listless, but i heard there's a c7.. if so, I can't find it
Good morning everyone? Any clues for ca7? It's my last word.
wtg hydra - enjoy the day !
thanks, dorens - that's a digraph
ap 6 and 7 please, couldn't get the previous clues
very nice, MrP! thx
Sorry, after "everyone" I should have used an exclamation point, not a question mark!
I am done, I guess I am going to clean my room, it will make my wife so happy.
aha, well i remembered that it began with di, that's about as good as I can get these days
ap6: ap + not yes, but ** + into **ch life some rain must fall
wd Marc - enjoy the day !
later, Marc
ap + joyeux ***l + another vowel
and yay, for finishing
good alternative, dorens!
Thank you all for the clues ap is a sleep disorder
magzel said that one didn't work for her, Marc
ap 7/32, please
you're entirely welcome, Marc
Any clues for ca7,36? Thanks so much!
british spelling is hard for some of us yankees
ap7 is adjective form of ap6
add a consonant
add a consonant at the end of the 6 annie to make it an adjective
one that looks like a hockey stick
15 left - time for a break - BBL - happy babbling all !
lickety and I just took our xmas photo together!! he will add is soon! christmas love to you all :))
thanks guys, i got them both now
:)
ah, thanks, tyger, should have gone further with ap 6

trying to keep up, but about to funk out and go back to bed
yeah, we worry about you guys if the clues don't go up, Lickety
Uni's right! :)
After the initial panic of having no clues, I tend to worry about you, MrP and the kids. It is a frightening time!
eyes are burning, as usual when I haven't got my sleep out :sigh:
last clue request??
only 4 left - all p's . Can I have a clue for the pl 6/21 please
I have chosen an icon of Lord Attenborough as Santa today......
Tyger, I don't know what time it is where you are, but I suggest sleep to you!
pl 6/21 is plural of pl5/12 - green growing things
Uni - I have to get my sleeep in installments because of being a chronic pain patient (central US)
need another 7.....i have ap7 and ca7
That sounds incredibly uncomfortable Tyger...I hope you can get some good quality sleep then!
thanks for the fireworks - tyger and everybody! Have a great Christmas Eve - hope Santa brings you all the goodies you wish for
pe7: plural of pe6 - specialists in some field of knowledge

{{{Annie}}} And to you and Bobby, Liz and family!
thank you, dear scarlet
I just wanted to scoot out of the kitchen in the hope of seeing you, Annie, Uni, Lori, DJ, kattie, and so many that it is unfair to start the list!! My greetings are in the icon, dear friends.
fireworks!!!!
Scarlet!!!!!! I stopped paying attention, and here you are! Merry Christmas, I have been thinking of you *hug**
Yippee for Annie... I am happy that I am here to see it! *Backflips* *Tossing quiche your way*
{{{Hugs to you, dear Uni and LoriP}}} Happiest of holidays to you and yours!!
Ohh! Yay Annie! **carefully puts on spectaculr fire baon display**
Joyeux Noël to my best american friend (((scarlet))) and to all of you !
scarlet, will save the quiche for lunch and I love your icon and message in your profile
Uni... hasn't you mother taken you away from the fire things yet? LOL
montreal, you're saying a word! Hee hee! =)
Thank you dear Annie... it has been some year! Oh, dear Lucien... my dearest Canadian frere... and to you and your wife and family, mon ami!
thanks for the fire baton display, {{{Uni}}}
and never realised it Vicuna !! - it's the PB for me...
My mother tries, but fails miserably. I burn myself on the stove and the popcorn popper, but the fire batons are perfectly safe
merry christmas, vicuna
And to you, AnnieB, and all!
second E word on bottom left? I have et4/5
Oh, I am feeling all full of goodwill and cheer (shocking as I don't really like Xmas) You people are the bet, and I am so glad I came back to babble to meet you all
LOL... honestly, Uni, I read that as "fire bacon"... hahahhahaa
Happy holidays Vicuna!! :-)
et - the infamous volcano
"desolate food pickin's in the PB" ...looking out sadly
oy fish me !
Jean, the volcano
Heh, I read it as bacon, too!
Her obsession with flame has been a huge source of stress over the years..... :-)
Indeed. The fire bacon is delightful! **sends some fire bacon to the pb**
Have some fire bacon, montreal.
*places chocolate and macadamia nuts in the PB*
Merry Babble everyone!
"thanking Uni"... as i taste that strange, and definetely non-canadian, bacon...
Luc... I have some wonderful quiche, shrimp, silver dollar latkes, clam chowder and kielbasi for you...
* forgot the eggnog--places eggnog in the PB and a big splash of rum*
that's quite a combo scarlet
Mmmm....quicke and latkes. I want to eat at Red's
oooo, latkes!
merci Annie !- think i will purposely type words in the wrong spot from now on !!
Can't forget the eggnog
quickie? What's Uni thinking?
{{{Lori!!}}}} Hi, sweetie... may the joys of the end of year give you peace and happiness... the rest of the greeting is in my icon for all of you!
If you touch any of the rum, you won't have to do it on purpose.
am NOT leaving the PB, 2 minutes or whatever !
But why is the rum always gone? ;)
lol vic...
lori, gave up on the guitar?
latkes and a quickie sounds pretty nice, to me, wink wink nudge nudge.
Luc's gonna start typing the whole list into chat for more treats
Scarlet! All the best from my house to yours! Merry Christmas everyone!
I agree vicuna
I'd even take a pass on the latkes
clue for pe 6/24?
Esprit, I stink at it, and the kids were giving me funny looks. I'll play later on, when they're not looking. :-)
well yes vic (and you might even forget the latkes...hehehe...)
Thank you dear! This old grinch is actually in a good mood... shocking! This holiday stuff softened my old heart... Luc... here's a linen napkin for your chin... (some shrimp sauce)

***pondering ways to get in the naughty box for copious amounts of rum***
*giggling madly* Yes, Lor... you and Uni have contributed to my loss of hard logic... and made me a little more "Christmassy"... LOL
thx scarlet "wiping chin and throat area with provided napkin..."
forget the rum lori - it's ...GONE !
ca7/36?
**coughs on LoriP tro bring down her holiday cheer levels**
montreal, if you played naked like I do, you wouldn't need the bib
Why must the rum always be gone?
Afternoon all.......May I say I wish all of you and your families a wonderful peaceful holiday.and Scarlet what a lovely message you have sent!

Thanks Jayde and the same to you and yours
pe 6 -- stickler and plural
Possible, but I don't see any evidence for it, hurshy.
where do you live Lori?
i should have got those words before, that's the evidence
ca 7 --- cod and hatteras and one if by ***d and two if by sea
Nova Scotia Esprit
Nah. That won't stand up in court.
always wanted to visit there
purchased three tools AND some liquid scary stuff to unclog this toilet. with my family coming tomorrow can't take any chances.
Some time when i win the lottery esprit, I'll pop down, and we'll attend a Bears game. Nekkid.
use an M80 hurshy
'parently you can't use ord'nary dran-o on toilets. had to get this awful smelling brown stuff that makes FUMES when you pour it in!
Oh dear...Lori cheering on the bears nekkid...she'll blend in with a fence pole
ap 6 -- add nay and give p**ce a chance; add a consonant for the 7
***lobs pillow at Uni, tells her to shush***
only way I'd attend a Bears game is in a skybox
wouldn't that be a bit COLD, lori?
It'd have to be first class of course Esprit. :-)
**is shushed**
amen sistah
My imagination would keep me warm. LOL
Be careful you dont use anything else at the same time hurshy ,the fumes mixed could cause you serious problems
you are only as cold as you feel
just so you know who you're dealing with Lori . . . I have flown 10,000 miles to an island in the Indian Ocean to visit with someone I met in internet scrabble
... until you die of hypothermia.
LOL!!
such pessimists
Eek! ***little unnerved by Esprit....***
can i have a clue for ja5, 24 please?
Thats some journey Jean
LOLOL Vic. Sooooo negative....... :0
:-)
yes it was caitlyn, but beautiful island
ja 5 --- country
extend the 4 pythonx
Nonsense. I'm not the one suggesting you stand around ignoring the cold! I advocate a warm cozy coat, or coming indoors to the fire for hot apple cider and hugs!
past tense of the ja4/10 pythonx
Snap Lori!!
ja 5 --add what your feet use to propel a bike: ***el

I couldn't possibly come inside, unless there's rum!
**shakes bottle of rum, calling out Lori's name**
***hears the sound of rum pouring. Follows it to kitchen***
chestnuts roasting on an open fire..jack frost nipping at your nose.........(sorry if im singing of key)
**locks door and hides rum**. Baha. If only Scrabs would come round with some halidol and tinfoil...
what's the tin foil for?
Uni wears tinfoil hats, so the government can't hear her thoughts.....
Come they told me, pa rum rum rum rum A new born King to see, pa rum rum rum rum
LOL Lori
I'm not the only one...Scar and Scrabs do too. And some fools wear baskets.....where's FMitch??
*note to self* cancel trip to Nova Scotia
gosh.. this one is soooo hard...
It's Atalante who meticulously handcrafts artistic tin-foil creations.
Bab Rab we are the only singers here today :)
Of course, she's also planning to take over the Earth with her robot army, so you might want to avoid her tin foil hats.
LOL Esprit
Oh Ata...I miss her so. I think she missed our tinfoil hat day though :(
does anyone actually doubt that the gov't has Mind Control programs?
They have CNN! :-)
Jean they gave up with mine years ago
...5 golden rings...
Ah another singer hi montreal
4 calling birds (or collie birds, depending on your version)...

Merry Christmas to you all too! Especially you Uni *grin*
ATA! YAY! Merry holidays and stuff **is happy**

...and a pear tree...
And a partridge in a baking tin!!
Happy holidays Ata !
I didn;t! I just got up!
And a partridge in a re-run!
happy hoidays to all!!!!!!!
We believe you. And if we don't, it's FMitch's fault anyway...
I wouldn't take rum internally. It's no different from paint remover.
or one particular partridge in a rehab
something nice might await you tomorrow Uni ...
hey gang
Merry christmas to all!!
You're coming to visit with Hobbit to see big ice cream containers? :)

so I am sneaking in some Babble time--LOL
Okay, a quick grocery store run, then I quit the real world. Have fun all!
Bye Lori,have fun
I love how Lori tells you guys she's leaving, then just leaves the house without telling me or the boys. Real mature.
no point telling you twice!
Oh, Uni hon. I'm gonna' run to the grocery store..... :-)
tell her Uni that we love her just the same...
Maybe I'm off somewhere...did you ever think of that?
***I keep forgetting she's sitting next to me***
Our shops will be closed soon ..yippee!!No more shopping no ,more shopping
***reiterates that shopping sucks, and actually leaves this time***
my mad husbad has just gone to tescos
I've only left the house about five times in the last two weeks...no wonder I need this tinfoil hat
Bye again Lori
He may get bargains Ata
I wouldn't go anywhere today...chain stores sound like a bad idea
a verrrry bad idea
I expect to see him at about 10pm
poor Ata. Lost her husband to the Christmas rush.
uni-- I get to see my girls today!!
oh well *is happy enough with dog and chocolates*
Perhaps santa will bring her another one
Chocolates compensate for a lot of lost husband.
Oh Praise, I am so happy for you!

Dogs don't shave all over the place and leave a mess, ;)

Good afternoon everyone, just popped in again to wish everyone a very merry christmas and good new year:)
Nearly everyone I wanted to be sure to say Happy HoHo to has already shown up today. I am hoping Haz will pop in at some point, but I think she is off for a bit
she's probably cooking Christmas lunch for 27
Hi Jean, merry Christmas to you too!
Hi jean,Merry Christmas to you and your family too

nah, more babble time if he stays out!
Does hubby not like babble, Ata?
I dont know whattime they are closing here tonight

Looking!!

Morning harp Merry Christmas to you
Lol Ata....give him a list, did you?
Morning Harp! I am Christmas Eve day here...but appreciate the effort!

LOL Ata
Oh, how did that drawing of the Gods ever go for you? I know that sounds vague...but I can't remember when you told me, LOL
oh, it ran out of time, unfortunately :(
Oh, that stinks...did you finish anyway, or get frustrated?
I am being very good,Im sitting beside the tree which is full of presents and I havent even peeked ...YET!!
I havent finished it yet - but I will after Christmas hopefully
Oh Caitlyn, that is tricky! Our tree is full of presents, but they are all for my brothers, and since I wrapped them...I know what they are!
Oh, i just finished! What a pleasant little grid
Congrats Uni!!! Santa is bringing yours later
hello all
Lol.. It stopped being about me a long time ago Cait, I have accepted it and don't really care. I just like watching
Hi pink!!
Hi Pink! Are you and lil Pink feeling better yet?

hi pink!
It is great fun watching the little uns Uni,thats why im going out early to see mine

Hopefully she can work up some excitement for the big day tomorrow. Was her birthday nice?
harp ap plus negative word followed by 2 vowels
Oh yeah Cait...you're out at 5:30 or something like that? That is a sacrifice I think I would be unwilling to make
brb
thanks, how bout the ca7?
i thought she had escaped the evil clutches of the flu...but it hit her last night...we decided to celebrate her birthday when we all are strong enough
Oh its so worth it Uni,I adore my little uns and I think they feel the same They are nagging us for the early start
take the ca4 and extend it with some ***yard or a plot of ***d
Hello everyone! Happy Holidays!
Oh Pink, I'm sorry it got worse. But, better to celebrate in health than be unhappy in sickness!
thanks, never heard of it!
Hi Niamh,Merry Christmas and happy holidays to you
Cait, it must be so exciting...I always loved the family part of the holidays
Hello Niamh!
Exactly uni!!! hi harp, and niamh!!
aww... my tree doesn't blink... the lights are supposed to change colors :(
ja5/22?
We will imagine it Niamh..oh look at the pretty light !!;)
lol... thanks caitlyn!
robo its a country
I'm gonna search for some soup in our cupboard, so i will be here off and on..but in case anyone leaves, thank you for the great babblin times we've had and enjoy your holidays!
aargh. i always get thrown when they use proper nouns
Bye Uni,Have a great time and see you soon
Happy Holidays Uni!
happy holidays uni and take great care!!!
I made peanut butter rice crispies last night for the first time... they turned out really nice and the kids had fun helping!
**sheepishly** That was a quick search! I guess now I'll just do the off and on part, :)
also made peanut butter fudge... our Santa likes peanut butter!
Uni!! Welcome back,I havent seen you for ages!!
I love peanut butter !!
Oooh...peanut butter fudge is DELICIOUS I will be on my third set of gingerbread men
no soup Uni! I'm sorry... I always keep a stock of what we call "sick soup"... it's Mr's Grass chicken noodle
Oh, it was quick cuz I found some...a surprising can of beef vegetable something or other. it's not even condensed! I am happy
sick soup here is tomato
not to brag or anything but my peanut butter fudge is delightful!
Lol....wanna come bring some Niamh? I might even be able to taste it!
I notice you are not sharing NiamhLOl
tomato soup sounds really nice right now... with toasted cheese!
oh... I'm sorry here *passes plate around* I brought some for my boss and then he informs me he doesn't like peanut butter
Mm...maybe I shall have to melt some cheese into my soup as a compromise
WHAT?! Who doesn't like peanut butter? People who are allergic even like it, I bet!
Mmmmmmmm lovely Niamh thank you
he's a huge smart alec... I'm not entirely sure he wasn't playing with me... but he hasn't eaten any yet!
Sounds like my Dad....I make him delicious things and he complains about it, lets it sit...then complains when I eat some...THEN secretly eats it all. Men are complicated, I fear
At least my stepdad openly appreciates delicious things!
Well I had better go now...I hope you all have a very Happy Christmas See you all soon..bye
you're very welcom caitlyn... a very Merry to you and yours!
bye caitlyn
bye caitlyn
my dad is the kind that would eat it and smile even if he didn't like it... my step dad would be the poop about it
Bye Cait! **hug**
It can be frustrating, but at least it is all appreciated!
I wonder if Dr. God purposefuly gave us a small grid today knowing we all should probably be doing other things???
I know the grids are randomly generated and all... but he is a Dr. and a God on top of that...
I alwyas wonder...someone came on and said that last XMas, it was a 287 word grid though...
He chooses what ones go on what day though, I believe. At least, i assumed after the day that he ran out of grids
maybe the 287 word Christmas grid was a gift to those who needed a distraction that day?
maybe the 287 word Christmas grid was a gift to those who needed a distraction that day?
stupid glitch... I think that's only happened to me one other time
Having trouble with that la5, any clues?
it is found at the top of a jacket or button down shirt..
la + you can take the ***t off a bear and make a coat
extension of the collar
Thank you, I knew it was an easy one, just couldn't find it
Done! Easy one today, but tomorrow's is bigger I hear?
YaY phaeton!!
Thank you, and Happy Holidays to all of you out there and may you be too busy celebrating to do the Christmad grid!! ;-)
Happy Holidays phaeton, enjoy yourself!
Christmas*
Thanks Niamh, it'll be a quiet one. No family near enough to visit, so lots of phoning.
I expect to get phone calls from at least half of my offspring tomorrow!! (hint-hint)
*gone*
oh, I was trying to figure out how to word "I'm jealous I'm not too far away from oodles of family, the stress if overwhelming sometimes" without sounding calous and phaeton *poofed*... oops!
going to lickety with 21 left to go...i know i won't have time later to finish!

LOLOL tor
Not a cell phone geek. Me punch numbers. Me call people.
my provider called...wants to upgrade me..for free... not changing my package... I have choice of...nokia 5300,6085, lgshine
I am not a geek but I have a cell phone. What's up Carlee
Nokia's are invincible.....
I'm pretty certain Nokia are the ones which last forever...google each one though, read consumer reviews...definitely a good idea, as some phones are just trouble.
nokias are great. My hubby used to install car phones and that was all they sold
i just got the pe 6/24 and the 736 woohoo
sadly, he is not home to ask.
YEA MLF!!
phew lol
nokia's are 7.3 rating..lg is a 7.7
nokias used to be top o the heap...lost a lot of ground to motorola tho
I have an LG and adore it...but certain LG models are absolute rubbish.
reading the experiences of people who used trhe phone for a good 6 months or so would be good
Finished Thanks all
Congratulations DR!
yeap...well shine is an 8.8 user rating...7.7 by the technogeeks
Congrats DR!

Uniquity congrats on going pro, lovely to see you.
thanks phandmd!
I was sponsored :) I am quite impressed
yw
I'm all ready, FMitch - you? :) Though I managed to fall down the stairs in my hurry to put presents under the tree, so I'll be seeing in this Christmas with a broken ankle, LOL.
I can clue for 5 more mins
She is a lovely lad Uni, I have had the pleasure of meeting Ata a couple of times now.
Ohh, Nancy, you need to slow down and take care of yourself
*lady not lad!
Yup NancyB I am all set too.
Hi everyone. Merry Christmas!!
HUGS NANCY pounce hugs pounce hugs (being careful about your foot ankle thing)
Hello Becca Happy Christmas!!!
Yes it is Christmas day here
But who could slow down at Christmas, Phand? It's alright, girls love a man with a mysterious injury ;) - I'll have to tell everyone I got it defending an old lady against a drunkard.
<<Hugs>> Happy Christmas, Herin!! :D
Oh wow...not a good time to fall down stairs...you should watch out for that!
Is that you in your picture FMitch? Very nice outfit :)
Someday when I am rich and famous, Fmitch...I will go meet all you fabulous people and travel the globe with you
Hey becca!
Hi Uni! Merry Christmas!
Yes it's me - decided to show my face for a day! Nancy I bet you were wearing heels again *giggle* poor thing.
Hey Becca. Tinsel sprinkle.
HI Herin!
It's alright, Uniquity, I went skidding rather stylishly in my socks C:
Hello FM. Nice to see a face
You look fab FMitch!
I have new pics up in facebook too.
Happy Christmas herin
Nancy were have you been i missed you about
well, Merry Christmas, gotta go get ready for dinner and church.
Oh sod i meant i have new pics up in my flicka account on my icon
LOL, FMitch; can't wear those in the house, my dad's very traditional :) Lol, if I did, I'd have them confiscated! Or BURNED. And I just can't do that to my babies.
Well, now I am imaging something all-together fantastic!
Thanks Becca. Bye and Happy Christmas phandmd
hey, peeps
Never allow your dad to see your shoes Nancy - it's aginst the law o burn high heels!!
Herin, I've been at the pre-pre-pre-Christmas parties :) believe it or not, one was at the end of November...:)
HI Tyger
Hey tyger...
Wow Nancy.
Hi Tyger. Tinsel sprinkle
Guys, high heels are so uncomfortable! I can't wear them for very long at all.
Neither can I ..
I used to hate heels but I love them now!
Same here Uni, haven't worn heels for about 4 years, am learning how to all over again, such a laugh.
LOL torgone! And hello
I never will, Becca!! He's also not allowed to look in my wardrobe; he'd have to double his blood pressure tablets if he did.
Easy once you try, Torgone ;)
I useta wear heels, but had to stop about 15 years ago, when my back began to get worse :(
Hey torgone!
LOL Nancy!
Hi-de-ho-ho-ho!
you're very festive today, herin :)
hi all!
earlier this year I found a beautiful pair of pewter-colored leather flats with beading on the toes. That's about as fancy as I can get with heels these days
I al already 5 foot 10...my bf is only 5 foot. We don't need heels, 'cept on him! :) It hurts my feet too much, I am a fan of flats. Cute flats though
hey, snap
H snap
I am. Its actually Christmas day and im in a delightfully irritating happy mood.
Evening Snap
HI Snap
yay, herin! :D I'm delighted it's so. you've seemed to be struggling too often lately
Uni, at only 5 foot 1, I need all the height I can get!
lol herin Christmas will do that
Uni I saw earlier today that LoriP did accept Haz's gift, was happy to see that.
I used to be a hair under 5'8", but I wore heels proudly
Well, no heels for pregnant ladies, way too dangerous! :)
that was *tall* for a femme, back when I was young
Yep...Mum and I went pro together, both by sponsorship. We are so happy and appreciative...looking for ways to pass it on
Uni, as long as they're cute, shoes are ALWAYS delightful :D
absolutely, Uni! already enough pressure on the low back
I can still wear them at the mo - not waddling yet!
tyger I'm 6' and wear 3" or so heels now
well, just don't do it too long, becca :)
Also a bigger tripping danger, aside from the damage they automatically due to the feet and back
really, FM? you don't have the 'look' of a tall woman in your photo
Yess Tyger *looks down at feet*
Oh Fmitch...you sound so glamorous at 6 feet in your snazy dress with 3 inch heels!
Uni's right becca :) just don't do it too long, luv
I only wear them for special occasions - not everyday - can't be bothered with that!
I love when a tall woman has the courage to "flaunt it"
Tall enough to be a supermodel, FMitch ;) I have to go back to visit my relatives in Korea; I can't talk to them, but I always feel tall there :)
Tyger i have new pics in my icon
I love being tall, always have. I need to skinny up a bit more before I can flaunt the beauty of height!
I know, I won't be wearing them much longer anyway, my back is already starting to ache wth flats on
has everybody finished the grid? I came in for a bit, thinking someone might need clues
how far along are you, becca?
I finished this morning Tyger, give a shout
Nowhere near finishing tyger - too busy chatting!
Glamerous,? than you! 'Fraid I am *clears thraot* a little too old for that but I love you for saying it.
oh, yeah. nice poses, kiddo! :)
LOL, becca
Oh come off it, FMitch! A woman's beauty is timeless ;)
Only 10 weeks tyger, which is why I can keep the shoes for a bit
That is so nice Tyger! but I'm just getting started
Did everyone know that NancyBoy is my bestest best friend *grin*
absotively posilutely not after 4 months, becca, and you shouldn't go that long, okay? (motherly tone)
no, FM, didn't know that.
Fmitch, Lori wants you to know that "there is a conspiracy of kindness (or so she and I feel) and we want to thank you for your part in it" ((She has the boys on Santa Tracker, so I speak for her))
OK tyger - to be honest, I prob won't have occasion to wear them again now anyway
<<matches FMitch's grin>> BEST friends. C:
Becca hands you a comfy pair of Ugg boots
And congratulations, Becca! :)
I think that nancy boy should be my best friend too! **pouts in corner**
Ooh, nice and cosy. Thanks herin :)
Uni! You look great =)
Thanks Nancy Boy. Very excited about it, but would love to stop feeling sick!
Ladies, ladies. There is more than enough Nancy Boy to go around ;) Just form an orderly queue. No pushing.
Uggs are surely comfy, but I doubt I could ever bring myself to wear them
Merrry Xmas Eveeerybudy!
Well, some pushing.
Hi Moon!
Uni please say Happy Christmas and best wishes to Lori for me.
**shoves to the front of the line anyway, panting**
hey, woof! and a very merry to you, too!
Hey Moon! Lori and I have been sponsored, maybe to help you keep your sanity??
Hiya Becca and tyger. Hope you're both having a great day.
Becca a friend of mine carried her one up front and she swore by Ugg boots.
HI Moon
It's true. =) Sprite and I had the HARDEST time not saying anything. {{grin}}
LOL, thanks Uni :D
Heya lady
I think they will be too hot by July though Herin
herin, the baby was a girl??
I don't think I could ever bear to put them on my feet. Actually, I know that unless some insane situation which I can't even imagine coming up does, I will never wear them
Right I only popped in to say Hi and Bye, Hugs Nancy and look after that ankle dear! HAve a great day tomorrow all and see you soon in BabbleLand.
Uni, what's your Chinese zodiac sign?
Merry Christmas FMitch!!!!
later, FM
Moon - Was there anyone who didn't know? I am feeling super out of the loop
I am a cusper - Leo and Virgo
((HUGS)) See ya, FMitch :) x <<shakes the jingle bells>>
Waittt a sec, Uni. Did Ata sponsor Lori, too??
I didn't know Uni!
Wait. Oh. Paying attention.
She was NOT supposed to...
chinese zodiac - dragon
that's western astro, babe. Chinese goes by year of birth
oh. I thought somehow you'd be a sheep, like me :)
And by element.
No, Haz did Lori, Ata did I...Seriously though. Did everyone know?? **smiling in joy**
Merry Christmas Eve everyone!
For instance, I am an "Iron Rat"
HI Lori - Merry Christmas!
isn't it absurd? that a sheep would so love tigers :P
Well... I guess Sprite and I are gonna have to gift someone else then. DRAT
Becca, all the ebst to ya!
hey, lori, Merry Christmas to you, too
*Waves at Lori from the distance*
Lol...I think more absurd is that in western i am the virgin and the lion. Contradiction?
Same to you and yours tyger.
Well, prolly. Haz and Sprite had a really hard time. They kept talking about it. =P
Moon, how do you know the element? It's shameful that I ask you this, as I actually come from ancestry in the orient. But all I know is that I'm a horse :)
thx, lori
FMitch!!!!! I think that this may truly be your fault..... :-) In the nicest possible way. :-)
I'm a horse too Nancy!!
Well Lori...we gotta blame her no matter what!
Isn't anyone else a dragon? **feels left out**
Ah, the element is derived from what season you're born in the year of what animal. I had a web page link 4Ever ago... I'll look for it.
There were actual tears. Conspiracy of kindness, made my whole year.
It's always FMitch's fault!
<<high fives Becca>>
lemme look it up. I think my son is
Thanks, Moon :)
Oh yeah Uni? Try being the only Rat =P
*high fives back at Nancy*
I ain't nothin' but a hound dog.
The internet says I am an earth dragon...
*Faint voice in the distance from a departing FMitch... Happy christmas all ... * Poof xx
Hi Vicuna. Merry Christmas!!
Merry Xmas Lori. You look SSOOOO much better without the big ears.
Oh Fmitch **sighs**
The youngest is Santa Tracking, with norad, so I must be off. just wanted to wish everyone all the best. It's been a fabulous day.
Hello, Becca, and everyone!
Mery xmas Mitch!
just checked, Uni. David is a dragon
Happy Christmas FMitch
LORI you went pro
how do I find out my Chinese element??
We wouldn't let her have a choice Lady.
later, lori
http://tinyurl.com/yoj9go Tyger this is my before and after shoots so far. These are the clean ones
hey, vicuna
http://www.tuvy.com/entertainment/chin ese_horoscope.htm
My hubby is a dog too Vic - very faithful!
So's mine.
Have a great eveing all. 'Puter goes abck to Santa Trackign now
Heya again Vic
bye Lori
Ok. Here's the first I found http://chinese.astrology.com/ele ments.html
Howdy, howdy. Merry, merry.
Yah lori
Cya Lori! Mery Xmas
You, too Vic
Looks like I'm a metal horse :)
oh, I'm a water sheep - that goes well with my Virgo LOL
loris no longer nekid icon girl
how do you find he element bit?
Tyger: http://tinyurl.com/yoj9go update photos
Well there you go Tyger...we might not share the chinese, but our western predictions are aligned!
Oh. I forgot about my Xmas present for the girls. Drat. brb
Awww, now to me, a metal horse sounds quite threatening.
I am rather intimidated Nancy...**returns to end of line** :)
I checked out my sign and am a RAT
<<hugs>>Oh Uni, I'm more of a water rabbit :')
Well it seems I'm an earthy horse
Then Inge, you are imaginative, charming and generous :)
okay, herin, I'll read later, K? :)
imaginative is correct, the other stuff is an off and on trait
Well, now that we all know so much about each other's horoscopes, can we have the pillowfight and pigtails?
LOL, Uni
Oh Uni. I've been WAITING for someone to ask. <<fluffs pillow excitedly>>
Well not so much as a read but a look
My earth dragon descriptors don't work for me very well at all. I was surprised.
No uni, or else Santa CLause won't come to our houses
inge, rats are very highly respected in Chinese astrology!
Nancy i read Metal as mental horse. Think i need more coffee
Uni, you missed me,, the pillow flew right past me to the neighbors house
my sheep/goat/lamb descriptors are actually almost spot-on
LOL, Herin! Now that -is- intimidating :'D
**aims interestingly shaped pillow at Nancy boy - fires, then runs through the line of adoring fans**
Yeah! I'm not the only Rat!
or at least in every one I've ever read thus far. haven't gone deeper into that site. takes too long away from the chat
keeping it up for later ;)
after baking checkerboard cookies, three pumpkin pies, I am again on kitchen detail for supper. Is that what rats re suppsoed to do.>?
and thinking it's about time to change my icon again
checkerboard cookies, inge??
Speaking of Santa Claus - just realised I've left a bag full of stocking fillers in my bed and hubby has just gone up - time for me to go too. Night all and Merry CHristmas!
never heard of those
<<Quietly begins filing a lawsuit against Uni>>
Tyger - I am gonna look into it more at a later time as well. I am always interested in horoscopes
awwww, nancy
Nite Becca! Have a merry day.
Night night, Becca :) Merry Christmas!
Aww, night Becca! Take care of you and yours
Sadly, none of the chinese sites I've looked at so far are breaking down the elements. Thats Lame.
Tyger, you should've seen the shape of the pillow! I have never been more OFFENDED in my seventeen years :O
in general, Uni, I've found that Western birth signs are often fairly accurate. however, the daily stuff, even if cast personally, usually are crap
Well...If I had thought that you were going to be so offended, I would have thrown two! :)
oh, really? that bad?
Yeah, right. A guy who's "offended" by a pillow fight LOL
LOL, Uni :DD
NIght Becca
The general descriptors of virgo are very accurate for me...with a few leo traits as well. However, like you said, the day to day is useless...
Moon, I'm only delicate! :')
did becca leave? I missed it. if not, later, becca
Hmm. I'll have to dig around some.. But, for instance, "metal" should be broken down into iron, bronze and silver...
absolutely, woof. metal is too generic
Of COURSE you are, Nancy. I never suggested otherwise. Until just now.
gold /= lead!!
I like that I am earth..although what I read didn't work for me, as I am highly emotional...but I am afraid of change! Lol
I can't quite recall all of it, tyger, sorry. It's been a long time.
Uni, have you ever had your birth chart properly constructed? You may have a bunch of planets in air or water (as I do)
I don't even know what a birth chart is..sounds interesting though
Nancy when we did a role playing game my house had a horse that was 30 hands high and was a Ghoul it was very mentally impressive
LOL, Moon. Now you mention it, I did have a pillow fight when I went camping with some guy friends. Sadly, they all profess to be straight. Being out the closet myself, I'm sure I know better ;)
The most "accurate" of the astrology stuff I found was a natal chart.
As I said, horoscopes fascinate me as part of the nature/nurture battle, and the brutal honesty of them
Gosh, I left when the drunken pirate rum-party began, and come back in on a pillow fight! Nancy Boy!! Delighted to see you dear... how are you? Happy holidays to Lady, tyger, moon and all... Uni, so nice to see you and Mom are now officially "Pro"!
You hafta know your exact time of birth (and location) and then take an ephemeris to figure out what planets are above the horizon, and what signs they're in
SCARLET! I have been waiting for you ALL DAY! Lori and I wanted to wish you a very merry Christmas!!!!
Merry Xmas red!
thx, scarlet, and same back to ya!
Hi and Merry CHristmas Tinsel sprinkle Scarlet
Merry Christmas, Scarlet!! I'm fabulous, of course ;) but managed to damage my ankle in my eagerness to pop some pressies under the tree!
Moonie-Poo!! Happy, happy! :-)
Scarlet!!!! I wrestled a puter away from a Sanata tracking 7 year old, to hug you!
Oh, tyger, make sure she has her latitude and longitude, it makes it easier to use the eph.
Tyger, I have all that info...I am gonna check into that at some point, sounds fascinating!
UNIQUity welcome to Pro doom sorry i didn't read your name right
woof, I did say location! :)
Tyger... so happy, happy! Thank you, Lady... Lori, dearest, you are a pro and I was waiting for a hug... backatcha dear lady!!
***everybody talk to Scarlet all at once again,....LOL***
Tackle Lori and talk her ear off so you are not alone
Well, yes, but when *I* went to go do it I knew the "where" but not the Location of the "where" LOL
Thankee Herin...I am easy to overlook in my rantings! :)
No problem... I have a full belly and empty head... so, pile it on!! LOL
Uniquity i so your name as the other Uni
Anyways, real life and all that, but I had to pop in and say hi to all, and give Scarlet a hug! Have fun all! Merry Christmas!
Uni, Merry Christmas to you too, dear lady... there are such wonderful people here!! {{{Group Hug}}}
Ohh..Uneaxoise?

Yw. Merry Xmas.
You're telling me, Uni :') We've been best friends since nursery...she was the first one I 'came out' to, so to speak, both with my love of everything girly and my love of my own gender, LOL. I do love her, though...:')
This place was so dead all day, I am glad we have come together in love for XMas Eve (whether you celebrate or not)
I sense shoe talk. My girlie sense is tingling.
ok.....goodnight and god bless to you all on this wonderful night!!! Goodnight all.......XX
HERINNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!! lol we didn't celebrate it as we both were to ill, but she sure is making up for the lost time.... the broomstick is out lol
You know... there is more love and compassion and tenderness in this little corner of cyberspace than in whole countries right now... *silent prayer of gratitude*
night night flask!!!
Blessings to you, Flask, dear. xxx
You, too Flask! Have a mgnificent day!
Nancy, that is the kind of relationship everyone needs. You need to babble more often, I've only ever seen you 2 or 3 times in the past 6 months
Nancy did you seriously get a pair of Blahnik? Also for you
I am so happy...so amazingly happy, thank you all for your gifts
http://www.pennangalan.co.uk/
Pink i am sorry about that i had the chicken pox on my 3rd birthday
Uni, the gift is you...
And being able to tell you and Lori apart LOL
Absolutely, Uni :) And Herin, I know I'm the luckiest boy alive *-*
Lori is 97, and Uni is a mere 39.
you can see the difference in your face herin...im very proud of you..KEEP IT UP!"!!!!
She's been at university for 18 years now...
Lori says to leave our IQs out of it :)
And still haven't declared a major!
Runs to Nancys closet and ogles the shoes
Thanks Pink
*Sputter*... but, all bets are off on Christmas Eve... LOL
Especially "in the family" {{grin}}

Hey, Herin... TRY THEM ON TRY THEM ON :DDD They feel like painful, crippling heaven :')
UNi tinsel sprinkle to you.

Hahhahahaaaaaaaa.... oh, moonie, you can be a real stinker sometimes!!
I take a 6, Herin...:) Or a 5 1/2 if I'm desperate to fit into them, LOL.
It's true. So, if I'm one of "those" personalities I can cut it out for a while. =) The hubbys family is coming any minute.

{{{woof}}} I mean. uh... {{poof}}
*giggling now*
Best wishes and tinsel sprinkle everyone. I have to get up soon. (I have to get the b.f up soon)

Oh, good grief, EJ (happy happy to you) There is a grid? When the heck did that happen?
hey scarlet happy holidays to you too
'Bye, pink!
Thanks, EJ... what a group! :-)
I see there's a solution to venereal disease in the grid
cl4/6-ade
Oy!
umm, if i understand right it should be na + i was *** by the nose (or *** Christmas lights)
tks Uni, never heard of that word
therefore, it is a stoopid word
Agreed!
You're a good cluer, Uni... but that one is beyond me tonight!
Oh my gosh, ladies, look what I just found... Mistletoe!! <3
nancy boy! have not seen you here in a long time!
Accckkkkk.... it's the Mad Smoocher....

LOL, Uni...
I have suffered with this word all day. Umm, na + stick letter + special **ucation
Ok Tinsel sprinkle everyone. I have to depart. Merry Christmas Everyone
<<grabs Scarlet, bends her backwards and lands a smacker on her lips>> Gotcha. ;)
Uni, I got it from your previous clue
**is shocked**
Esprit, I've been gone for about a million years. But, I'm back :D
*gasping for breath*.... Hey, not bad, kid!! :-)
See ya, Herin :') <<grabs a quick kiss first>>
nice to see you NB
Blush
I thought Red didn't get it? Maybe I confused myself! Lil bit of sangria goes a long way?
'Bye, Lady!
I have no idea when i will be home tonight. Long day. Taking me a book in my bag i thinks
I got it, Uni. Thank you! It, as EJ said, stoooopppit!
Are you stayin this time nancy boy? we need this kind of entertainment :)
Bye. bye.

Oh Scarlet. That's adorable. :3
Gasp... an assignation right here on Babble! Good grief...
LOL, NB
Uni, can I kiss him too? <<has no shame>>
LOL
I think that
I told ya, he's the Mad Smoocher...
I think that'd be pretty hot...He says that costs money! Lol
He's a cutie...I like it!
hello again!
Hi, stid.
oooh! NANCY BOY!!!! where have you been, young fellow? are you well? anything fun happening?
STID!! <<hugs and looms threateningly close with mistletoe>>
Hey Stid!
*puckers up and lands a big wet kiss on Nancy Boy's nose*
okay, for the official record, listed with 23 to go...
Stid, I've been partying like it's 1999! :D But I've broken my ankle in a foolish outburst of xmas merriment, so I'm indoors this evening :)
I have 8 left and losing patience!
I wish I wasn't already sick so I could enjoy this a bit more...but a bit of wine and rum makes the throat stop hurting so I feel better, surprisingly!
oh no! *shudder* well, stay OFF the ankle, do what the doc says and DON'T push yourself. Do you have someone to fetch and carry for you?
oh oh Uniquity! so sorry you are not completely well.
go Esprit go, btw...
AP 6 would be a lovely token... please?
((hugs)) I've got crutches and a grabby-stick, Stid :) I'm having more fun than ever!
Merry Christmas to all those who celebrate it!!
well, I suppose the grabby-stick will have to do. When my knees hurt, I go around with a sack over my shoulder to carry things for me.
Thanks Just! I hope your celebration will be full of good cheer!
ap + opp of yes + give p**ce a chance ((and stick letter))
thx stid!
ap6 funny way to spell sleep disorder
and of course, I have the children to go a lot of fetching. The dog won't. He's too smart!
what a peculiar word, Uniquity! thanks!
LOL, Stid!
LOL, Stid!
must mean that sleep disorder again.
Tank sooner sits on things than fetches them for me =/
down to 14...
Thank you for the good wishes, Just1... I do not, the family does... we have it all worked out though. :-)
have 5 left been driving me crazy since the flip ....anyone in a cluing mood?
LOL assuming Tank is a dog?
Tank is a sleeping cat.
thx scarlet I don't either but parts of my family do too!
Lol, Stid... She's a chubby cat! :D
go Just go!
oh. cats are even smarter than dogs! (or so they tell me)
Exactly, Just1... blessings to all who do...
and to those who don't it's the spirit that crosses all boundries
so how fishy is the LA 5?
My idealism would like to stretch that good will throughout the year across the continents... but, I am reallistic, so I'll take whatever peace is here...
not fishy.....what you'd find on a man's suit jacket
I hear ya scarlet
*Incoming salmon at Stid's head*
well, we celebrate the solstice in our family, but maintain many of the familiar Christianized yule traditions... giving peace a chance in our family means not rocking the boat too much with the grandparents...
the et 4/4 is killing me anyone?
*urgh* thanks for the fish...
Just: it's a mountain...
*passes fish to Just*
Oh John Lennon...If only we could give peace a chance nd then keep it that way
Just... spelled like Italy's volcano...
thx stid can't believe I didn't see that
Uni... I cry every time I hear that...
thx scarlet too :)
:-)
:-)
yes, John certainly had a way with the lyrics...
Oh, double smileys... tis the season after all!
my last 4 are p's 3 pa's and 1 pe
Especially, "So this is Christmas... and what have you done...? Another year older...

I always like John Lennon...the album I liked to listen to was a great compilation, beautiful songs...I finally like the beatles, but only for john!
go Just go!!!
I need the CA 7 please...
pe 4/5 is the sound a bell makes, homophone of what's on an apple that you take off
OOH. Looks like I have surprise guests :D And what time do they call this... Merry Christmas and good night, everyone :)
Uni... never a Beatle fan, but he was something special.. the really spiritual one was George Harrison though..
take the ca4 and extend it with a type of wireless internet (or ***yard or a plot of ***d)
Later, NB and have a nice celebration!
sweet dreams NB, and MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!! (take it easy on the ankle)
ca7 is ca4/6 and a local area network!
merry Christmas Nancy!! Enjoy your eve
Scar, I am way too young to be a true Beatles fan...but have come around on some stuff

Well done, stid!@

I thought the easiest word on the board was no 4/4...
good point stidmama
heheh:)
pa 4/9, diff last letter from the one that comes before... sounds like the pa** that comes over a room when I enter.
thx so much stid.........fireworks!!
Well done, Just1! Happy December!
YAY Just! Youppii!!!!!
how do you say "fireworks" in french?
heheh thanks.....actually birthday on Sat......started counting backwords some years ago
hmmmmm not sure.....but I should know cause we have fireworks competitain here every summer
LOL birthdays this time of year are tough... one of our kids just had his about a week ago. Tradition in our family is that the birthday tree is set up early... *grin*
gonna ask hubby!
fireworks in French is feu artifices!!
(artificial fire) !!!
oh! thanks Just! (sorry was monitoring grumpy dog)
Take care everyone .......peace...contentment.....stressl essness (!!!!) and all the best
feu artifices! ... let's see if I can remember that term. It's almost too logical.
:-) and to you, Just1.
thank you prob will be back at flip time!
thanks Just -- have a lovely evening!
fireworks! all finished and ready to make some candied pecans
auf Deutsch, Feuerwerk! Stidmama, and to all of you a Frohe Weihnachtsfest!
Well done, Lil*monkey! Enjoy your day! Thank you, inge, and happy holidays to you and yours.
merry christmas, joyeux noel, and mele kalikimaka everyone
what langauge is that third one monkey?
that's hawaiian, inge
Feliz Navidad!
Is that Hawaaian?
yes, hawaiian
Or, Hawaiian, even! LOL
YAY lil monkey!
I keep looking for all the other babblers' langauges----India, KOrea, Finnish, where are they?
frohliche Weihnacht, liebe inge!
buon natale, i believe that's italian
danke, stidmama, I loved the two chapters and expect two per week ffrom now on!!!\
we had Argentinian earlier today,
I hope to write another one today, and each day until the kids (and I) return to school, inge, I think two a week is possible...
whooopiee!
yes, yanaina? I think her name was... It was nice to see spanish for a bit.
yes, lil, that is italiano
I keep going back to Santa tracker. Great fun
Santa tracker?
I can't even track the status of the laundry today (my dryer is starting to fail)... a laundry tracker would be nice.
okay, I need to head out also. I hope everyone has a lovely evening, and if you celebrate tomorrow, may it be full of love and light. *poof*
i'm just trying to keep track of my focus - have new contacts and am also using reading glasses....... i've joined the ranks of the bifocal users.....
They are difficult to get accustomed to, arlen..
hints - please onthe bifocals ----
I had a bit of difficulty with sidewalks, and wayyyy overstepping the curbs at first... then I learned how to focus my eyes with the new double vision thing...
I'm using the moving my head and and shifting the competer screen but I'm not sure what else to do... I've broken three cups so far
that ounds like more fun - once I get teh glasses... oh well...... that's life
LOL... at least you haven't broken a bone... you will find your own way... what works for my husband does not work for me... so, little by little, I learned, and then discovered I could not stand them...
i haven't left the house with them yet..... absolutely terrified of what'll happe when I'm driving
So now I use glasses for reading, crocheting and using the computer, and my distance vision has improved fivefold... the eye doctor told me that it happens frequently... one of the few good things about aging... LOL
You will come to be comfortable with them, arlen... how long are you wearing them now?
about 4 hours a day.....
WEre you advised to lengthen the wearing times each day?
yep..by an hour each day -yesterday was three.
Maybe the cup mortality rate will wind down too... LOL
i hope so..... it's not so much them breaking - i ahve lots...but the finding all the pieces...... the contacts fix the long distance and reading glasses fix the short-b but there's still the middle ground....
My daughter has serious vision problems, and she is seeing so much better with her contacts... her glasses have a prisim to enable her sight to be stronger...
hello all and happy (fill in the blank with your holiday). does anyone have a clue for the H in the middle of the first column? it must be a weird one, HW or HN?
I sorry bernice- I'm still looking for that one
Hi, BQ!! Happy _+__ back! :-) Yes, it's an hw4/9
thanks scarlet. btw, i LOVE your icon. where did you find it?
(got the HW, thanks)
HW + hugging **d kissing! Thank you, Bernice! I went searching the net the other night and looked for about two hours to find it on Google!
well worth the two hours. i'm going to send it to my mom. she'll love it.
I am sort of universal in my love of mankind, and whatever faith system anyone embraces... and did not want to ignore nor specify any one group...
scarlet -I think it's great.
and supposedly, each faith promotes peace, though some people so horrible things under the flags of their religions. nice to be reminded of the real purpose of these faiths
Okay, Bernice... I put "Peace on Earth" in the Google image search engine, so you will find it there... Thank you, arlen!! Hope you find it, Bernice!
i actually already copied it from your profile, thanks
LOL... you're quick! I love that you will pass it along to your mom...
Happy Christmas all!
Clue for the ca 7 please
Hello, and happy holidays, witchy!! :-)
Witchy, what Sherlock Holmes wore over his shoulders... or a magician wears, + not by sea, but by ***d
ty scarlet
Or, the easy way, LOL ca4/6 + not by sea...etc.,,
thanks
You're welcome.
ap 6 and ap 7?
Sleep disturbance, the British spelling
The ap7 is that which is related to the condition...
na 5/12 --- I just can't see it
please...with brown sugar on top
Sounds exactly like having hit a metal thing with a hammer, arlen...
no plus (friend)
happy christmas witchy, from someone else in your time zone :P
:-) Hi, Fordy! Happy (fill in the blank)
thanks for the 'no' Drem03
Fordy, weren't you the one who celebrated your first fireworks on October 15th?
yes scarlet :)
I thought so! How is your completion rate these days... are you hopelessly hooked like the rest of us? LOL
scarlet - not getting it - to me that usually sounds like 'BOONG'
A long thin metal thing that gets banged into wood with a hammer is a NA**, then add the past tense ending...
Sorry, take out the second vowel...
glurph..... not I got's it
thanks
Yippety!
not = now
LOL...
i play most days when i have the time...i probably don't finish all that many, maybe half
new eyes- can't do a thing with them
i try not to get too obsessed with these things because they can really take over :P
There are so many of us who just have to play daily... I hear you, Fordy...
I know what you are saying Ford - I 'm working on the same thing.
if I start playing I can't stop ..... and then nothing else gets done
I have learned to integrate my housework and other obligations... some days, when it is huge, that works in my favor.
Any other clues needed before I go watch football? Must...have... my... NFL!
The game starts at 8 tonight because it's the Eve...
not right now- but thanks
need a boost....pe 6 and 7, please!
See you soon, then, arleneehm!! Have a memorable holiday. PE6 pe+ fourth letter + picnic pest and plural
I'll give it a try...enjoy the game!
Thank you, mrae!! Enjoy the Babbling!
you too scarlet
bingo...thanks for the gift!
Yea!!
Thank you, arlen! :-)
One last word b4 i'm done and stuck on ca 7...anyone?

Hello? **listens for echo**
eve'nin', still hanging out...
I've been checkin in on and off all day...been a dead chat
i can imagine why...i'm only here because my office was the only place safe to wrap gifts...
echoing in.... Hi Uni, misstearweus, Merry Christmas to you both
with the computer here, I said what they hey... let me play...
Happy ChrismaHanuKwanzaa to all too.
it hasn't been All dead. {{spoiler: my icon is PG13}}
It was entertaining for a little while, there.
Hi moon, thanks for the cheer! I just changed my icon to a not-so-nice Santa
Happy Day to everybudy.
Nice! The theme for today is, duh, xmas day. And since I didnt get what I wanted in RL, I got it for me here =)
Alittle pressie for the girls, and maybe a guy or two.
Happy Christmas everyone, its 01:02am Christmas Day here :)
yw. Merry xmas, weegee =)
Ata, you and Naz are Brats.
But merry xmas, anyway =)
Happy Christmas! Atalante!
I am?
Hi Ata. Happy Christmas Day to you
moon, better luck next year...
go me :)
Yeah. Sprite and I sent money for Lori, too =P
Lori was nothing to do with me :P
ty, miss. I hope so, too =)
Well, sure Ata, but you coulda told sprite. lol
I didn't know anything about Lori until afterwards!
Well, I emailed Sprite. I figure we can gift someone for New Years...
Maybe have an essay contest...
ah so thats why she was asking about other people
For what/whom was a collection taken up?
people were just buying subscription christmas presents!
Actually, weegee, in retrospect, it prolly woulda worked out better as a collection, but Ata and Naz bought LoriP and Uniquity pro memberships for xmas.
Which sprite and I did, also lol
Naz?
Yup. Naz
oooh, so new icons to look forward to! I was thinking something tragic had happened, requiring funds for medical or something.... sheesh...
I dont know her, I dont think
Oh, sorry weegee. No not bad (that I know of)
I believe "bbnaz" (?)
oh you mean bbnaz? *sudden inspiration*
no prob, all to the good as it turns out. Ata, tell me about your black/licorice fondant enrobed layer cake.
Well, make sure and ask one of em. I'm bad with names. But I'm pretty sure that's what Uni said.
just black :D it was a Goth birthday cake :D

Doing great, TO -- Kristianna is enjoying her Christmas eve gift right now.... because she was on her absolute best behaviour the couple of times we dared to brave the malls, she got to open one tonight
ok, i'm off to the sodoku site. all the very best to y'all. have a great day x

We also have started a family tradition this year... I got some craft supplies and we made a couple of snowmen decorations
sorry you have to go, bobsta. please come back again.
Enjoy, Bobsta -- may the blessings of the holiday stay with you throughout the year
I have a collection of those GW - my baby is now 21 so the memories are great
Hi kids!
hi scrabbler
For the first time, it went pretty well, saph -- though Seb is still a little too young to understand what we were doing... so his primary contribution was not screaming or pulling things apart after we put them together
Hi scrabbler
lol GW
Before I say hi, define kids or you may not be addressing me ;)
Scrabbler!
I have a Sebastian too.
I will be back in a couple - time to put out the milk and cookies and tuck in Kristianna

Does anyone have a clue for the pa5/12 word yet please
:)
I visited my friend at the hospital, my friend with brain cancer. Her kids came to visit and gifts were exchanged.
p + ae4, minver
the pa are what you might put on your legs in the morning
Who is Anthony Bobsta?
How was she today Scrabs?
has she been in hospital since diagnosis?
p & 3 vowels and a hump min
Piers Anthony Scrabbler
Does anyone have a clue for the pa7/36 word yet please
pa 5/12 is yet another spelling for a hymn of praise
Thank you for the pa 5/12 clue. I just found the word!
She was very tired but sitting in a wheelchair instead of lying in bed. That is a big step for her. She was moved to the rehab unit on Wednesday.
pe7 is plural of pe6
How is she feeling emotionally? About Xmas (provided she celebrates) et all?
pe6 as almost like what may hang from a necklace.
dcseain, do you have a clue for the pa 7/36 word please?
pe + mr. Aykroyd + cross letter and plural
hey, dc! aw you guys are making me want to stay but i have so much to dao. bad enough i am delayed to drive home until the AM
She was home for just a few days in November but couldn't make it there. The craniospinal radiation slammed her. Sorry, I don't want to bring everyone down. Just be grateful for good health, for without that life is challenging.
there is no pa7, only pe7/36
hi, TO
how much longer for her radiation?
piers anthony, an absolutely fantastic author. his books mirror todays life but in a complete parody
i've been quasi-lurking. i'm at work and bored silly.
Does anyone have a clue for the ca7/36 word yet please
Ty for the pe6 and 7
welli know how bad head radiation can be.
i'm glad mary's sitting up, that'll make it a bit easier for her

whatever daniel had yesterday. threw up on the drive home, now has the runs.
Anybody here who has already celebrated Christmas in their timezone?
sponsered? you can buy a pro account for a "stranger?"
Ugh..feather, you are having a bad break on children's illness
yay santa is over the eastern US now... its only a matter of time now... muahaha
I can stay to help clue for a little while if anybody needs.
part of my family has; but for us, it was always 3 days.
Wow, that is wonderful! What generosity!
I was just as shocked as you are Feather
Hello icepyro! How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle
Ata told me to sign out and in..and al of a sudden, my world had changed!
ap6 and 7 please?
that's so cool!
I love how Norad said Santat came to my province (over 2 hours ago) then left and went a different direction!
he he he, already playing with my groovy gift
I would like to do that for someone in memory of GrannyMaxx - if anyone knows of someone who wants to go pro but can't
ap 6/21 is ap plus single hump plus three vowels & plural.
ap + opp of yes + give p**ce a chance (and stick letter)

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

hey nut, where is jade?
Ty for ap6 and 7

Hi Scrabs!
Hi dawger---how are you doing out west there?
I find it odd that I had trouble finding ap6 and 7 when I have that condition myself
jade is working her butt off
trying to stay warm and off the ice, scrabs. how about you?
merry christmas all!
poor jado
hi smokin
hello?
sorry if i'm in and out, copying my stuff to the hard drive thingy

what did you do to yourself TO?
fell. old news. a week ago sunday
brb - cooking a turkey to bring to GrannyMaxx's house for her family
I am trying to stay warm too, dawger.
nutty, you've already opened pressies? heck, i'm still wrapping them!
OWIE! (((gentle hugs))) TO
Owl, you had quite a wipe-out and it could have been much worse!
what did you get, nut?
How nice, Saphyre! Tell them that we miss her. Her life is not over, it has just changed.
That is a good way of looking at it Scrabbler! I like that!
well alll, time to wash hair and clean. see you later, all!
I will Scrabbler - thanks
Yah, what scrabs said. blessings to the family.
thanks lb
I was at a funeral in January and the priest said that and I love it. I find it so comforting.
Goodnight 72 Temple Owl! Have a very Merry Christmas!
Well, everyone else on here is so productive. Saphyre, that is a beautiful thought...I will be thinking of you in half an hour when it is finally midnight eggnog toast time!
Bye, Owl
nighty night TO
Bye TO, enjoy your holidays
thanks Uni - have the eggnog ready here :)
I am seeing so many words that I didn't see this AM.
it really is a nice way to think of the loved one. I like it too
Merry christmas, all! *waves as she saunters off into winter wonderland*
speaking of productive... i wonder if I should find something to do.. i am at work after all... hmmm.. nah
http://www.noradsanta.org/en/home.htm Check it out!
merry christmas TO
lol Ive been running google earth all day scrabs
No, get paid to play, icepyro!
doug and i opened pressies too already. tomorrow is all about the boys
2 phantom words for me today were deepen and planets.
before i go, if anyone wants some different holiday music to listen to, go to wxpn.org and listen to their stream/ bye!
I am listening to music from the Christian radio station in Bath, NY--near Featherbee!
good range!
i heard the greatest play today by a group called groovelily called striking twelve, baed on little match girl. it was awesome!
scrabbler, your turn...i'm still waiting to get rid of some letters before i tell you what move i had planned earlier!
I am listening to the sounds of silence. My loud niece and nephew finally went to bed and all the company has left!
yay for you min! *poof*
lol, Min, that's my favorite sound!
The rest of the family went to church and I am babbling!
ah silence... all I hear is the sound of people passing the office... maybe i should turn on some music? nah
what kind of work do you do icepyro?
OK, feather, I will go there.
IT
yippee!
Hope God forgives for Babbling instead of going to church
ahh, you and DC have somethings in common then.
Min, say a few hail marys when you get a word. I'm sure he is very forgiving
being holiday tho, most people are off, and now this late half of those left are probably gone
so, you're basically just babysitting the office.
Wish I could get paid to Babble! Cannot babble at my job
just in case someone can't turn on a printer or something yeah
for another 20ish minutes
i want to get paid to babble too. or rather to play babble! lol
im probably not supposed to babble, but what is there to do when noone is around to break something?
we'd all be rich :)
Where are you from icepyro? It is 10:36 here in Vermont
Im in cali
well, i'm rich with the company of so many great people. too bad that doesn't pay the bills.
They changed the filters at my work so now babble is off limits to play even on free time
very true lb
IT hours are 8am-8pm and being the n00b means i get the later shift and weekends
Then that does make sense that you are still at your job
lol onyx, Im blessed with a company who only outright bans myspace and that can be accessed in the break area
Hi onyx! How are you doing? Merry Christmas Eve to you
hi onyx. Saphy, how are the puppies?
Hey there, pretty good. Kids are pplaying guitar hero. so i get to babble

I am off to take a shower. I will be back to clue later on.
bye min
bye Minver
Im prolly gonna go home and play guitar hero lol
oooo, i wanna puppy, i want puppy kisses and snuggles.
bye min
i tried to learn, it was tough having a 13 year old laugh at my ineptnes
okay, what is guitar hero?
Oh guitar hero...been on all day long here
they love to cuddle - little cuties - and so well behaved - going to hate to give them up - but i get to keep one
a video game that doesn't involve killing some thing
xbox360 game lb
how many did she have?
guitar hero is a game (or rather series of games) where you have a controller that resembles a cguitar and you play songs etc
guitar hero, fun
I have a ps2 and the entire series lol
ahhh, video game...gotcha
she had 9 - but one died - she sat on it by accident :(
A beautiful time waster...mine is PS2 as well. Although, I only have 2 and 3
Never played 1 or 80s edition, but want them
24 to go--I need help with the last 3 J's.
1 is hard
:(, how old will they be before you let them go to a new home?
j & gorilla
Monkey found ja4/10 #2
then past tense
6 to 8 weeks lb
hi bwthemoose
Scrabs, ja5 is a country. think tokyo
one is a country Scrabs and one is the past tense of the 4/10
TY, saphyre---oooh, ja5
hi pookie
I was going to try the country, then said, no way. Ty, dawger
ja5 is either a country famoous for anime or j + gorilla past tense
but they are already eating some puppy food
And TY, Uniquity
i'd like to know why that word is accepted.
because Enable is crazy :)
saphy, i bet they are just too much fun and just too cute!
I demand and explanation from those Enable editors right this minute, damn it!
because it has other meanings being lowercase
they are - one actually growls and then scares itself from the noise - it is sooo funny
They must be adorable and snuggly!
ahh, it's a black varnish to coat wood, metal and other surfaces.
Ridiculous, isn't it, dawger?
la5 please?
ja

do any of you 'celebrate' the tradition of animals being able to talk at midnight on Xmas eve?
***SNORE**** (Peeking with one eye to see Santa)
hw, former currency of south korea...yeah, i use that often....NOT
I haven't thought about that story in ages, JBP
never heard that one jbp but I think my animals can talk all the time :)
My bunnies talk to me everyday, JBP, and I talk with them. LOL
I don't know that bw and I will be awake to hear them this year....
no, I mean HUMAN speech...
my siamese cat always talks meeser,and he understands spanish
no5 anyone, please?
my cat says mom when she wants me to feed her

n+o word for nie stone, looks good in a ring, hint. ;-)
ooops, cactus
jbp, doyuo remember the name of the story? i vaguely remember seeing an animated version of it.
when I ignore her she says mommeeeeeee
no5 is a cactus? I never heard of it.
makes good food
i don't remember the origin, other than in my fam. I'm thrilled somone not in my gene pool also knows it1
i guess it is a spanish word
We're just going along with it, JBP. We believe you alright. *wink, wink*
it's related to the prickly pear cactus.
need some E help... have fencing sword and old English voiced th shound
thanks for humouring me Scrabbler!!
last word pa5, 12 first one clue plz
jbp, i wish i could remember the story...something like the night the animals talked. it's their version of the birth of the christ child.
For Poles, Christmas Eve is a time of family gathering and reconciliation. It's also a night of magic: Animals are said to talk in a human voice and people have the power to tell the future. The belief was born with our ancestors who claimed that Dec. 24 was a day to mark the beginning of a new era.
shorty, plural the heavy breathing word.
Here comes Bunny Callie now, she wants to discuss the upcoming Iowa caucuses.
et 4/4 is a famous mountain & el 4/4 is el + an indefinite article jbp.
And I am back for a brief moment

The first pa 5/12 word is p plus the ae 4./4 word shorty.
Hi Grey Woulf!
I am listening to my first ever babble podcast right now...this is the strangest thing!
well i just scared the crap out of daniel. great!
ty fireworks!!!
poor kid. i went in to hang something up, and startled him out of his sleep. he then proceeded to roll off the bed, and by that point was very freaked out.
how do i ALWAYS miss that mountain??????1
good night all and have a merry one
hurray for shortyQ
i missed it too jbp, till i went to list
nite onyx and welcome back GW
LOL, jbp -- I remember last year when a few of us used to curse that the mountain was in the grid yet again
no, seriously, I ALWAYS miss it. I should just start each day by entering it
Merry Christmas to all don't forget Jesus is the reason
happy happy, onyx -- may the blessings of the season stay with your throughout the year
jbp I apply my mountain rule - enter that word first in every grid
merry christmas shorty
So, according to Norad, Santa has been and gone from my area -- I just wish he had remembered to wrap the gifts for us!
he seemed to miss Maryland alltogether :) guess I was naughty
hola from Mexico, feliz navidad!
Thankfully, most of Kristianna's gifts are books... now that she has read The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and we are reading Charlie and the Chocolate Factory now, he has brought her Peter Pan to put into the lineup
ooh that's great that she likes books GW
Feliz navidad, shdy!
hi shdy - merry christmas
prospero ano, grey!
just returned from boat parade, muvchas felicidadas
saph -- I consider it to be my proudest acheivement so far, that she not only loves books, but that she loves reading them with me as well
my oldest daughter slept with books instead of stuffed animals - she graduates from law school this month
Now I just need to find an affordable source for all of the L Frank Baum Oz books.... not only for her, but so I can read them all too!
en mexico, mucho gusto, mucho felicidadas
Woulfie! Shady!
lbd, feliz navidad!!!! hola!!
amazon may have some used ones - or sometimes on ebay GW
Congrats, saph -- Kristianna is like that too -- before we had to take the books out of the bedroom to keep them safe from Seb, she would keep a stack of them next to her bed so she could read them if she woke up before us in the am
Poor Daniel.
lbd!!
Congratulations shorty on your fireworks! Good for you!
feliz navidad, shdy!
I LOVE books! So many to read and not enough time. I have 70 + on my Amazon wish list.
whoooo hooooo shorty!
I am gonna check into it this spring, shdy -- I think she will be good til them
oops then
todos personas a vivas las tigres a las siete en enero
Scrabbler -- the worst thing that ever happened to me was when I got my job working for Waldenbooks so many years ago --
los championes
I would be unable to perform my job duties in a bookstore.
I became so intimately aware of just how many books were released each month and how little time I had to read them
Merry Christmas Eve all!
how old is Kristiana now GW?
Woulfie, i work for borders, and the first check always goes back to the company! lol
Daniel falls asleep with a book on his chest 90% of the time, or beside him
Happy Christmas, Nat!
Merry Christmas, NatL
i love hearing about children who love to read.
te quiero los todos, mi amigos
in fact, i need to go wrap his stack of books. i had forgotten about them earlier.
Sometimes I almost have a panic attack when I think of how many books that I want/need to read and how little time there is. Darn job gets in the way.
i'd love some help with the N, 2nd column, middle row....
I consider my true crowning achievement to be that Seb will fight with Kristianna over the Dr Seuss books already -- it is gonna be tough keeping them in books as they grow older, but I think I am up to the challenge
No hablo espanol. Parlo un po' italiano.
ah to be leading a life of leisure, with all the time in the world to just read and listen to music
Yes, that is my fantasy, JBP
tiende los "presents" a la chica "yeterday", pero on la bote, todos hay "lsu" stuff

Kristianna is 4 1/2 and Seb will be 2 next month, saph
thanks lbd. thought I had entered that one
parlez francais, no hablo espanol, pero en Mexico "now"
My Sebastian is 5--my Netherland dwarf rabbit that lives in my room (or do I live in his?) and he sleeps with me.
and the other N from the middle row?
i'm getting about 10% of your spanish, shdy. never took the language, but my latin and italian kind of fill in the blanks
You are in Mexico "now", shdy?

Wow. Uni wasn't kidding when she said chat was "dead" today...
Oh. tyvm. So far Much better than yesterday.
yeah
And are you enjoying your book?
love it
So you had a good day, too, then?
he is a terrific writer
I did... dropped off a lot of presents etc
I tried looking it up, this morning, but I couldn't find a good synopsis of it. =(
you?
i think it is out of print now
Well, without dwelling on the pain of last night, I was a boob, but today it was All Good.
good
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY..awaits flip
I am a boob half of my life moon
Everything sorted itself out all by itself. So that was my big xmas present. It was nice.
Merry xmas Mlf
Oh, seriously ruru, I outDid myself last night.
I love giving out presents
moon are you going to stay and work on next grid/
how so?
The short version = I channeled Charley Chaplin and my father in law's toupee ended up in the greenbean casserole, in front of his grandkids. Yup. I just came it for it, in fact.
lol that sounds like a sti-com
lol we lead such exciting lives dont we moon?
sit com
If last night was on a bell curve, my arc changed, last night. It SO was. I felt like all it needed to be worse was Candid Camera. Or ANY camera.
sounds hysterical.. on the outside.. but probably not while you were trying to put out a casserole..
Actually, I think I do. But it's nice, sometimes, just to take time for me, Mlf. I've started doing that, here. It's been nice.
was that suppposed to be sit-com or stid-com?
both
I'm So not telling Stid about this. It's bad enuf that I'm going to be an xmas story for the rest of my life.
i didnt finish this one i went brain dead lol
would they be hairy-coverts?
good evening all, and Merry Christmas
