I'm a little dense sometimes, so I like to check.
what the heck does pl7 mean??
word or clue?
the word? I just monked it, but I'd never heard of it, before, so I was being lazy and asking if anybody knew what meant.
to flatten a surface
wierd. I would have thought that would be spelled differently.

We had to go to the buffet.

Hello everyone. I went sleeping
hi herin
evening lady.
Hi Dart, Is it still christmas for you?
nope...1:55 am now on wed
Hi Moon.
Woohoo! Idiocy overcome!
afternoon m'lady
Moon?? Grid or CHinese?
HI Saddy
lol herin
I wish both. =P
But sadly, just the grid.
congrats moon
Yah Moon.
SO how was your dayS? I feel asleep at the grid typing
ty. It was touch and go there for a second... But you were all inspirational. ty
It's been fine. I packed part of it and watched a movie. chatted a little... browsed.
Getting to know the "wide world of internet". Typed a couple of entries and came in for the flip/
i had an absolute blast at work....not
Packed?
Packed?
Poor dart
Yeah, to leave for Arizona.
Was it pretty boring?
Moving?>
more people flying than i thought
DC was working too. You a flight controler?
No. I work in AZ for a couple of months every year. Not snow birding, really, dart, just work.
Moon are you a dirty rotten snow hound?
That happens to coincide with snow season =)
what do you do down there moon?
I sell the stuff I make. I work at the renaissance festival.
do you go to the one up here too?
Yup. We're here, too.
any in New Mexico?
So you like the snow or not Moon?
Actually, I dont do one in NM... I dont know if there's one there or not...
The snow? Sure, sometimes. Like everything, there are both good and bad things about it.
think there is...but it's kinda small compared to the one here
Most are, Dart. The one here, is currently the second largest in the country.
the snow is ok if you dont have to shovel it or drive thru it
My b.fs cousin follows the snow as he is a rabid skying
Ok, you're right there is, but it's Tiny. It's a little 2 day thing.
With a 3.00$ ticket price.
Moon that sounds hard work and fun
relatives in silver city nm...think they mentioned it once
You've been to the one, here, then. You like it?
It says it's in La Cruces...
we usually go every year....like it....were they having problems retaining the grounds in the future...thought i heard someone mention that
It is. I like being self employed, for the most part. I have a pretty good bos...
There's some discussion going on about it. I haven't heard anything final about the site. It's a long story, but I would be surprised if it ever moved far.
This year it just sounds like they're talking about moving the parking lot.
its a big lot
Moon sounds like fun do you have a website?
Sadly, we don't lady. Our stuff is hand made, and we've agreed that it's busy enuf for us business-wise to just do fairs, right now.
what kind of things do you make?
Do you have pics i can look at please?
It is a big lot. But (and I've heard Lots of versions of this) if they cut the size in half and moved that half toward the back and added more shuttles, they could start mining out front, etc.
At MN our booth is a quarter of the size of our booths at other fairs, so in MN we only carry leather clothing.
Hmmm. I'll have to look Lady. If I do, not many.
make the actual festival grounds bigger by shrinking the lot....or maybe im misunderstanding what mining out the front means
I've only been online for like what, 3 weeks now? I'm still kinda getting used to this stuff.
The fairsite is in a rock quarry, dart. It's sitting on top of literally 100s of thousands of dollars worth of ore. They want to physically mine it.
aaaah gotcha now :)
They dont want to shrink the lot, just relocate parts of it, so they can mine.
didnt know that....basically down in the river bottom almost
That's mostly what the whole debate centers around. Well *I* can hope they dont go that far down lol
Our booth there is already on top of a sink hole =P
same spot for booth every year?
I need to move and cook dinner i dont wanna
Well, eating is a good thing, tho, lady...
Yup. Same bat spot. Same batty booth.
I am still not awake to put turkey mince and cook it in a frypan
I do have a new microwave... mmmmm
But you Did just get a microwave =)
sip
yes i do but microwave doesnt really cook mince well
guessing in the main gate and take a left...and gop around aways.....but not quite halfway around the grounds til you get to your booth?
LICKETY have a beer for me
im back!!
wb pink
Ohhh Yeah!
wb back, pink.
Pinkie
Hmmm. If I were giving directions to it, I'd say go straight, not left...
hey herin, i saw the IM after you logged out how has your christmas been?
Really good
what did B get you?
If you asked around, tho, pretty much anybody in a costume can tell you where we're at. I think you're thinking of Excalibur.
near any of the stages?
Nope. Pretty much right behind Bad Manor. Next to the privies.
i have to look for it next sept
Sure. Ask me then. Oh, Bad Manor = feast hall. if that helps.
But whatever. Sooooooo {{hehe}} what do You do at work?
this grid has teeth!!!
tell planes where to go :)
You're seriously a controller? I thought she was guessing at that.
yep..20 yrs now
Pink he totally spoiled me. I got a hand bag that i knew that i was getting. Then he gave me 2 dvds as a suprise. At his aunts house he gave me 2 more 'santa gifts' more dvds and a new wallet that i love
Oh, now that's rich.
And you havent gone buggy. Congrats!
My parents got me a new camera. How was your day?
few grey hairs :)
Well, heck. I have some of those, and I'm basically a really handy clown.
play this to keep my wits about me
Yeeaaahhh. Ok speedy D.
Yah know, you could do it slower. Then it could even be relaxing. =P
used to play a 2 minute version of this called tangleword...but they just shut the site down
thats lovely herin, sounds as if you were spoilt...it was nice cool girl done me and lil pink a plate of xmas dinner as she knew we were all ill then she came round with her daughter, then my mum and brothers came to me...but as you know we're doing xmas later this week
ruru mentioned tangleword, earlier. wait. 2 minute??
hi ev1 Merry Christmas!
2 mins...find as many words as you can....4 letter =1 pt....5=2 ...6=3...bonus pt if you get the word first
Guess that explains some. Why'd they shut the site down?
Evening banana. merry Xmas to you, too.
also the b.fs parents gave as $100 and my parents gave us$50 so so we got a new microwave
it was at iwin.com...beats us....but a lot of us miss the fast pace
Lovely pink that is lovely
banana was a tangler too
hi nana
well, then... It seems we may have a small infestation going, then....
thats a result!.. im guessing you were in need of one...what did you get B?
hi darty, did you have a good xmas?
Well, personally, I'm not sure how that would work for me... Games are supposed to be relaxing.
she must have dove right in...she'll have about 40 words in the first 10 mins easy
I kinda like being thorough, too.
was working nana...just got off at midnight
Uhm, relaxing?? Anyone?
oh you had the xmas shift this year? yuck
don't we all banana?

piNK A dvd
piNK A dvd
hi infernal!
moon...after a while you see a 2 X 2 square with certain letters in it and you know the words there...dont even have to look for them...just type them in,,,,,,and then there are backward-frontward words....if you find one the other is there.....like spoons-snoops....reward-drawer etc
Hi Franie and Banana and anyone else i missed. I ahve to cook dinner
what are you cooking infernal?
Good to hear Fran. get everything you wanted??
hi herin
it was good moon. :-)
Oh mahn... I would Suck at that, dart. I'm glad i found this first. My brain has just never worked that way. I've tried to train it, but it keeps going Next to the newspaper, instead of on it.
got the snow you sent nana...bout 4-6 inches sunday night and about the same tonight
That's it? I could have sworn it was more.
lol, i'm at mom and dads...they had to drive on bad roads with snow to pick us up at the airport, then yesterday was clear, today more snow....3 inches plus and it's still coming down
if you see the letters s-e-a-t in a 2X2 you will have ates-east-eats-etas-seta-seat-sate-tea s....and then look for the fives and sixes around that
might have been more moon..very fluffy snow tho
today's grid has tons of babblets
I took my mostly white Jack Russell out to take a leak and I lost her in the snow. It Has to be more... She's small but I'm pretty sure she's taller than 6 inches lol
hi all. a clue please for na5/14
im back once again!!
hi helen!
the one i have is like a short sleep with extra letters
You just pulled that out on the fly... My brain can do that, if I'm methodical about it, but I have to trace them all out. Hmm. I started doing this as a sort of brain training thing. Hopefully I'll be able to do that with practice.
sounds like a kids word for an afternoon sleep
baby's wear them
hi helen, frannie, banana, dc and anyone else i missed!!
hi pick
the base of the neck + a middle consonant
pink...ss
morning, pink
hi pink!
wb pink
the hard part for me moon...is on that game i moused...this one will not let you.....nana types...and you can type faster than you can mouse usually
whats the ss for banana??
so sorry
yes, the mouse-centricity of Macs drives me a bit batty - i'm very keyboard oriented.
i've baffled some folks by navigating through windows with my keyboard many times faster than they can mouse.
ohh i thought you was hissing at me lol
getting better at typing...but still only 2 finger typer here
I can type faster than I can mouse, personally. It's the oragnizing it like that in your brain, that I can't quite do. But i'm working on it.
morning everyone :-)
nana does that once in a while :)
Morning Katie/
i've touch-typed since i was 8, though at 27 i switched to Dvorak from QWERTY - never looked back.
hi katie!
morning katie!!
morning, katie!
lol pink
what is that dcs?
((((herin)))))
I've never tried Dvorak... you like it better, huh?
is that the split keyboard dc?
you saying I hiss at people dart? lol
theres another kinda keyboard than qwerty?
hi rolin!
yes nana :)
hi rolin!
still wih the rude decorations I see Rolin :-)
*with
I'm already sort of overloading most things when I type... I've thought about switching so I have to take my time again....
Yes. It's called a Dvorak keyboard. Google it, I'm sure you'll be able to find a pic.
Evening rolin
I would say "suggestive" decor lol
lol moon
Much better description moon :-)
hey i am back
thnaks moon
hi again infernal!
wb herin!!
hi herin
DInner is on. THat was horrid there is a big roach in the kitchen i screamed like a big girl
yw helen.
fran your quick on the messages today ;)
hi, sorry. back again. yes, i like Dvorak layout much better. I'd never noticed that the right hand does nothing at all on QWERTY, esp since i space left-handed.
arghhhhhh!!!!!! did you call B?
I space and enter with my right
I space with my thumbs QWERTY works fine with me as i am a touch typist (badlu)
that is, i'd not noticed til switching. took me about a week, with a tiny spreadsheet of the dvorak attached to the top edge of my keyboard for reference. now it looks like regular, but only the A and M are in the same place, to the befuddlement of others :)
Really? There's also "l - o - p - and n"
rows of dvorak: ',.pyfgcrl/= aoeuidhtnns- q;j kxbmwvz
Pink i bought B a dvd. He so totally spoilled me. I got everything i wanted and i didn't ask
I've been volunteering encoding a book, and I can't even Tell you how often I use N
always nice when someone is paying attention, isn't it, lady :)
your a lucky lady herin
hey katie..im on my laptop and dont whave access to my pics...which is on the main pc..ill connect to that when my aprtn er is finished with it
i usually have to type one handed as rhubarb wants fussing!
sorry ,confused, l,o,p, & n, what's the significance?
trivia question...what is the longest word in the english language that you can make using only the top row of keys on a qwerty typewriter?
that jumble of letters is sposed to be partner...btw..lol
I type all of those with my right.
I like it rolin, I laughed so much when you put it up the other night :-)
letter keys that is
stewardess?
oh, sorry, that was just on the left side, not just the top row
yes, but comparitively, right does nothing on qwerty.
and surprise surprise...guess which way my partner looked at it..
that's one hand, banana, i thought she asked on one row?
he did yes
he lol
using just qwertyuiop
qwerty
he, my apologies; will try to remember. :)
THere was much squeeling. I got Carnival and Niptuck season 1 Underworld 1 and 2 and tiping the velvet., i wanted these but i never mentioned it. I got a wallet that i wanted and was going to buy myself with chrissy cash. My parents sent me a camera. I think i said wholly shit at least half a dozen times. We both got parental money which we bought a new microwave. Our second OUR purchase
priority?
that's awesome infernal. he totally got it right. :-)
and I think my word was actually supposed to be stewardesses...lol
proprietor?
the message posted at 3:01am was regarding the roach in your house lol
proprietory...?
lol
No i didn't get him the cat will get it eventally. Or ill suck it up and kill it (shudder)
wow mine was 10 letters...found it in a trivia book....that last one looks like 11
except proprietory isn't a word. :-)
LOL
has an a i think
whats the weather like in Aussie? and have you seen Aussieisme recently?
A is supposed to be the last vowel. :-)
nice try though moon.
Fran he played santa. I hope everyone had a lovely day. Yes i am bragging but Meh. Last year i worked for a charity org and donated to charity and i am unemployed. I do help the underprivileged or friends when i can. We gave a sick friend about $200 worth of help at one stage
Seen Aussieme she seems good. Weather here is getting warm (not WORM) again
i used the word in my trivia question
Mine was fake. Dc's is correct, tho
proprietor Main Entry: pro·pri·e·tor Listen to the pronunciation of proprietor Pronunciation: \prə-ˈprī-ə-tər\ Function: noun Etymology: alteration of 1proprietary Date: 1637 1: one granted ownership of a colony (as one of the original American colonies) and full prerogatives of establishing a government and distributing land
Whoa. Sorry.
LOL
have to run, can't keep my eyes open...lol typewriter dart?
peppertree, perpetuity, prerequire, proprietor, repertoire, typewriter
his is same length i think.....yes typewriter

the postal service has sold them off. there's a huge collector's market for them, and big business keeping them in parts.
But I don't know how to post on ez-board.
broll, just register, and post. it's simple.
That is lovely DC
bed time here night all
You are talking to a techo-idiot.
How do I register?
Note to self don't get b.f to make up a burbon and coke not good
i just realized i have the wrong icon theme.

Still the same here Fran.....even when I click on it.

yay dc!!!
thanks for the ap6/7 too dc.
I didnt finish yesterdays :(
some days it's like that, pyro.
actually I got so disgusted with all the 'lemme just mix 4 letters and somehow thats a word' bit that I left to do something else and forgot to come back
you'll get used to the odd words, and learn what they mean, in time :)
Have you all seen that image of the animation of the kitty waking up its owner with a bat?

No innfernal. Where?
My kitty pushed a set of tweezers onto my head this am. That is so her

it's the mom radar chrissie. :-)
Um DC can you tell me a name of the not cheese cheese please

Rose i miss my rentals I had to tell them about my pressies :D
hi rosalind!
anything interesting rose, or just the basic you make ack noises, and she keeps going about nothing?
morning, rosalind!
got it in one, dcs
:D yeah, and my mom wonders why i don't call frequently
Rose tell your mum you really really really need to use the bath room
morning, ro!
Hi Rosa
i have qu4 x 3, qu5 x 3, qu6 and qu7, does anyone know what my missing q is?
qu 4,5,5,4,7,6,4,4,5
qu4, fran
qu 4/7, 4/7, 4/8, 4/7
thanks dc! it was the first qu4, funny because i use it in scrabble
and that folks is why i don't call her. i really don't have time to listen to all that trivia!!! lord knows, i try to understand how lonely she is since dad died, but i need a couple of kilo's of valium , particularly when she's in a whinging mood.
Sing it, Sister!
lol dc
when my brother gets off the phone after one of her marathons, his wife and two kids just disappear for a couple of hours,she has actually brought him to tears.
i'm not seeing the ep7, anyone have a great clue?
it's vowel-laden, fran
has a hump w/in the vowels
i think i saw that mentioned earlier, okay, i'll try that
ends w/ an na4/4
Poor Fran. I was going to say its seems that she is lonely.
got it dc! thanks! :-)
well, at least Christmas is only a year away
TAH DAH!!!
congrats, rmcc! :D
yay rose!!!
congrats, rmcc
i have to remember that ep7, it's related to the greek temple babblets
hi babrab!
hello, peoples
morning, babrab
going to save last 10 for tomorrow, time to get to bed.
have a great day or night everyone!
night fran
sleep tight
pleasant dreams, fran
goodnight fran, hope you don't have a rude awakening!!
nitey nite fran
lol chrissie!
bye all! *po4*
Night Fran opps
Rose i meant instead of fran i was going to say that ma seems lonely
why did she po4? poof isnt in the grid... only sseems like it is
how many of us typed poof thinking they had missed it....I did
fran was just yankin our chains :)
sip sip sip sip sip
does anyone have a clue for the third an4,4 and the an6?
an + 2 vowels, but not a double.
not fair - lickety's having way too much fun
an6 - add beginning of op6
he's just taunting us cause he know's we're halfway round the globe from him
an6/21 an + a cornuc**** is a horn of plenty
you're right herin. that's why i try to be very patient with her. but mum still treats us all as if we are teenagers or younger. she can be downright nasty at times, and we're supposed to grin and bear it. my bro's just flatly refuse to call her at all, so the contact is left to myself and the eldest of the bro;'s. it can be exhausting, and at the moment my darling mother-in-law is going thru a very frail stage.
so we're being yanked and taunted then dc, and enjoying it ;-)
indeed, chrissie :D
my friend's grandmother is like that, rose, and i'm sorry that you have to deal with it.
Rose sometimes we just forget how mean we are. OH and by the way i am drinking a small tipple of cougar bourbon
oh well, it's my lot in life, i hope i can continue without a breakdown myself.my darling dad did a lot to protect us from her, and we didn't know it, then when he died, it hit all of us very hard.
still dont have the third an4... have tried all the vowels combis i could
an4/4 a bit of a bum steer
saddy na + **ts make good porridge
change the third letter
Must stop drinking coffee.....giving the wrong clues. Many apologies.
or must drink more coffee
an 4 -- add a protectiv ditch around a castle filled with water:m**t
lol, chrissie
think I need more coffee now....bbl...happly babbling all
maro coffee makes everything better, and saves lives, and Futurama has shown us LOL
thanks rmcc
yw saddy
maro, more, whatever :)
what time is it where you are dcs?
MMM Rose does your mum have mental health issues? Have to ask or is she just one of those kooky people
BabbleRabble, your profile text today is beautiful.
thank you
05:51 AM on the 26th
herin, she is a perfectionist living in our imperfect world. Do you know the show " keeping up appearances "? well, my mum is hyacinth.
help with the ap's please
dcs, are you on your way to or from bed?
saddy ap5, relating to bees
i'm at work until 07:00 my time, 06:00 grid time.
ap6/21, ap + variation way to spell sunl***t
ap6/21 no respirations
ap7 adjectival form of ap6
ah, the delights of night shift!!!
what is it that you do DC?
only got the second ap... :(
i work for US Customs, no the helpdesk for their Automate Commercial Environment.
ap6/7 combo is british spelling of a sleep disorder, and plural
sleep ap6, charactarized by snoring and ceasing breathing while asleep.
ya know... Ill never get used to that spelling
OH Rmc i see. Yes our family is like that. My Cousin asked me what i was doing and i was so tempted to say ' well i went crazy and don't work' but i smiled and said 'not working studying
even tho I have that condition :(
ap5, ap + two vowels + single-hump
and that damn word was in the grid a few days ago and i don;t see it
both f them were
hump?
one letter, lowercase, looks like a hump
oh :D
apnea
Night all
nite herin, sleep well, my dear
whoops.... but thats not in the puzzle... thats the only sleep disorder i can think of that fits
Sleep well too
ni** m'lady
g'night, lady
thanx herin. saddy, add a ring letter after the hump
thanks rmcc
now the ap7?
s'okay. glad you finally got there. i think you're fantastic to even attempt puzzles like this
plural right
indeed , saddy :)
saddy, turn the 6 into a 7 by making it an adjective
err.. im not that stupid you know... just never heard of these words before
agreed, saddy. the words can be quite baffling at times. :)
didn't say you were stupid, saddy. i thought i remembered you saying that english wasn't your native tongue. if i'm wrong, i humbly apologise.
also remember that we are talking about spellings Ive never seen before and I have the condition :P
morning all, got most of my fours, now for the challenge
lol
pyro, may i ask where in the world you are?
morning, crpw
there's that, icepyro. for me, the difficulty is trying to remember the american way of spelling. not saying either is right or wrong, just that there are sometimes more than one way to spell a word.
usa
yeah a lot of my difficulties have been alternative spellings to words
Morning babblers
hey nono
hi nono
morning, nanette
hi nonOOOO
I cant sleep so I thought Id babble lol
brb, bourbon just ran out, need a refill
yes, esp as meter/metre etc are often both in the grid.
thats ok rmcc
lol Saddy are you playing with the OOOO's in the grid
i am up too, son just left to travel back to New Jersey
english isnt my native language.
you'll love this dcs. over here, metre is the measurement, and meter is the gauge, go figure...
yep nanette
im tOOOO corny to miss an opportunity to overdo a joke
well, saddy, there's no way i could play this game in any other language, sooooo i still think you're fantastic!
interesting, rmcc, i didn't know that. is that usage unique to Australia?
not sure dcs, let's ask our english friends.... over to you guys and gals
No, UK too!
yeah since im so fantastic lol... how about helping me with the do5 word heheheh
blood do5
Good morning, by the way, how rude of me.
fascinating, liz.
morning liz
rightie oh. do5 do you give blood, if so you would be a blood do***
good evening almost from my end... 4.30... te sun will go down in an hour or so
still haven't got the plural of the sleep thing?.. oh btw hi everyone
whereas, here, saddy the sun will rise in about an hour.
sorry mummy, adj, not plural, didn't mean to confuse :">
mummy its not a plural but an adjective
hey liz, settle this for us please, how do you usel metre/meter?
liz said that british usage was like in Oz
oh how could i have missed that... i knew that one lol
here, both are meter.
sorry, yes, spent so long looking forgot what I was looking for!
it was one of my last words, too saddy.
i felt esp silly, as i had the 6 :)
ah..... now ain't that interesting!now for that bourbon
though they do build in opposite directions.
see 5.27 ! Definitely meter for the gauge and metre for the metric measure.
how you manage to finish puzzle after puzzle is beyond me... if... i repeat IF i finish this one it'll be my second ever. I do all the obvious ones... then when i have the kooky ones left that dont make any sense (to me at least) i just log off
meter from mete, and metre from French, i'm guessing.
phew, got it at last
saddy, i played for a year before i completed a grid.
i only started finishing regularly since i've been working nights, last few months.
saddy that happened to me yesterday.. got so sick ofguessing based on point combinations to get the word I just said enough of that
ep7????
Saddy, I have been at this now for more than two years and have only completed about 6 or 7 grids
11.30 here, and still in my jimjams, better go and do things, bbl
i know... its so annoying isnt it icey?
ciao, liz
and et too please ;)
i should off for shift turnover. hope all of yall have a great day/night.
ep + vowel + na4/4
saddy the ep7 by deffinition is a rear vestibule, as of a classical temple
bye bye dc have a nice day
Morning, all. How goes the day? Snowbound here.

hi sprite
outer suburbs of melbourne here
brb all
Hello everyone.
which outer suburb ms Gilly?
I live in the outer suburbs of reality.
hi Scrabbler!
hi scrabs
in a little place called Cockatoo
Icepyro--are you going to turn pro? And, Miss Sprite, I survived Xmas with my family--did you?
hi Scrabs!
Hi Nanette!
I had a great Xday with my family, Scrabbler, really good. Glad you survived :) *hug*
scrabs... if I stay this addicted to the new year... likely
Hello across the pond and to the Down Under folks.

puffin' billy is fine lol
Hi scrabbler, this game is the outer suburbs of reality
we lived near Cranbourne
oh,not too far then
yay for my sweet hairy nosed dolphin :D
sip sip sip sip sip sip sip sip
Yes, it is and I ask myself why I continue to do it. It's harmless other than using up a chuck of my daily life. But it is social and enriching in many ways.
TY, Sprite
party is either dieing or getting good with so many sips now lickety?
no, lot further away now though!
ok, last guests left, and that means it's been a 12 hour party!
Hi Lickety--how are you and the family?
wtg lickety, I hope you thoroughly enjoyed it!
wow thats some party lickety
only a short one then lickety!
Is it Boxing Day in Oz too?

Good for him.

Go Merk go!
thansk all - have to go again - Happy Christmas everyone!
got to go now and shower ready to go out for lunch, bye all,catch you later for the last 41
I have just 18 and words are not jumping out at me.
you too lickety
Bye Lickety
Bye Mummy
And I just noted the Q moments ago. Coffee is infusing and has not taken effect yet.
some strange words today Scarbs
it will Scrabbler, it will
most are being found here by my monkey
What would we do without our monkeys?
I managed to get into the 30s without looking at licketys site but now Ive resorted to guessing =/
we would never finish a grid, Scrabs
I found 38 so far, no list, no clues. Qu5 a few babblets though.
Yes, we all do that, then succumb and get the list. Then we look at the list and our missing words seem so obvious.
well since ive only babbled 4 puzzles counting this one, i was rather proud of that
I usually play without a list, but I come from the times when there were no lists at all.
I usually only hit the list one the last few that I just cant figure out because they are usually spellings that are non american
You will improve quickly, icepyro, and if you play other word games or do crossword puzzles your performance will improve in those areas as well. And, best of all, you can impress your friends with your inceased word power.
na 5 clue please
then you will find very soon you can do without lists, icepyro, you will start to remember the odd words soon enough!
Oh, there are three p tiles today. I need coffee, I think.
*pours Merk a nice hot strong cuppa*
I have to check e-mail. BBS
Thank you so much, Sprite. I envy you your experience. You are so quick with these grids.
comes from making grids without even knowing how many words it contained. Best we had back then was a list with only first letter stats and a total... and not that much clues in the chat either. That really helps build a vocabulary and a way of spotting combinations in the grids that signal words.
hey.. you guys any ideas on a present i can get for my husband...its our first wedding anniversary on the 14th
oh wow, Saddy, congrats!
Who makes the grids anyway?
congrats Saddy, may you have many more years together!
they are randomly made by a computer program, Merk, and then checked to see if they are not too small to be worthwile... grids without any words are thrown out, for instance.
Saddy, I have no idea... what does he like?
err. me!
So who invented babble. I know lickety makes the list.
hehehe
lol, yeah... well, buy yourself a great sexy outfit, and let him unwrap ;)
hahaha
Merk, Babble is offered by james tibbett, or Dr_God as he likes to call himself here. Lickety's list is purely a service that Lickety offers us.
I have seen Dr_God here on rare occasion. I think we're on opposite sides of the world.
Does he play it himself?
you mean drG? Not often, I think... you could check the rankings... not sure he is even in them.
blarg dum wireless died
I went back from wireless to wired. It drove me bananas.
Well, he invented a wonderful game. I waste too much time on it, but I know it helps my brain, which is why I do it. I don't have much time to chat, but I love reading them and participating when I have time.
and we love it when you have time to join our chat, Merk
quitting at 60 words... i hate words that dont make sense to me...
well done, Saddy!
I never took Latin, but I've learned some of its quirks by doing the game. And I've always loved words and their origins.
plus it a quarter past 5 and i have to wrap up a few loose ends before i head home
I love learning new words and finding out the history of words and all.
thanks sprite...
Herin, for one, enabled me to keep going when I went to China. They censor so many websites.
Their filters are not adjusted for dictionaries and such.
censor? where did that come from? My coffeeless brain.
that is great, Merk
whats weird to me is that I used to be pretty good at boggle and scrabble, but this thing kicks me... maybe cuz i do get more than 20 words, but even those 20 take longer than in a agame of boggle
it might be because Babble uses the (old) Enable dictionary, icepyro. It has some pretty weird valid words and omissions.
and FIREWORKS!
wtg Nanette!
Yes, it does. And I cannot get Enable in China.
wow wtg
congrats nanette
Herin gets me Lickety's list when I need the help.
I still have a bunch of ls and ps to do
Great job, Nanette
thanks gang.... hubby is getting up so have to go fix breakfast
happy babbling
leaving my last 22 till later, got to get some sleep, bye all
lady is a sweetie
bye crpw
Bye, Nanette.
I am at my son's and need coffee and breakfast in a bad way, but I don't want to wake up the toddlers. They are wore out from their Christmas.
lol maybe thats the hint given me by how many flashlights I got
lol
The ENABLE (Enhanced North American Benchmark LExicon) word list is a free, Public Domain word list upwardly compatible with the OSPD3® and MW10. It contains over 173,000 words, with no arbitrary limit on word length. It is a text file in standard ASCII format. At present, it is the most thoroughly researched and accurate reference list for club and tournament play, and it has become the unofficial de facto standard.
One of the many reasons I love BabbleRabble :) Hi, good to see you!
See, we are using the de facto standard
Hello, sprite and all other babbling peoples
now if only someone would go back and crossreference it to have definitions
so I can find out what some of the words mean :)
small wonder I tend to have problems with that... I never seem to be able to work with the standard...
icepyro: that is what the questionmarks next to the found words are for... they usually give a def.
keyword there... usually :)
yeah, those de facto standards need to be upgraded to de jure
if not, I always find www.infoplease.com a very informative site
o0o0o0o may have to check that one out...
that would be great, except that it would make lots of babblets unvalid, BabbleRabble!
depends on who is making the law
hm, you have a point there. If it were us, we could vote to keep the old dear babblets valid :)
sorry but if I have to guess a combination of letters because its not in the dictionary but is in the grid, thats almost silly to me
I love it to discover new (or very old) words that way.
Is ro 4,4 a babblet? Or am I totally blank this morning? Clue please.
ok... how about words that are old spellings from other languages thus proving even harder to find a definition for
ro + first 2 letters of yearly, Merk?
I love those too, icepyro!
its what ya call a horse or cow of a certain color
sprite... your a rare one :)
I was blank. Thank you. I thought I had tried every combination and then it's such an easy word.
Some words that "are" real words will not be included in the Enable Dictionary, and other (sometimes "adult" or very strange) words you've never heard of will be there. It's all a part of the fun of Babble, so don't get stressed by it. Relax and just go with the flow and have fun.
cursing the enable dictionary is one of the many joys of babble, lol. Icepyro: thank you.. I think :) How about words like 'aroint' or 'aroynt'? Aren't they beautiful? Or 'ywis'?
babble as long as I can find a definition then I can learn and recognize it as a word... when it doesnt make sense... well then I have other words to describe that feeling :)
combinations of letters have no meaning... its when someone applies a meaning that the word gains power..
Fireworks!
wtg merk I think ive been arguing so much I havent got mine done yet :(
I returned just in time for Merk's light show--yippee!
I feel it enriches my language to learn new words, or discover the root of known words, see how a word has developed in time, or how words from other languages relate to the ones I know.
well done Merk!
I second that comment, Sprite!
With 64 to go I sadly must get ready for work, although I would much rather stay in Babble Land.
and some words are just wonderful and should never have become obsolete... how about sonsie? Isn't it great to have one single word to describe: having an ample bosom?
*hugs Scrabbler on her way out*
I never knew that meaning--my new middle name now!
I'm going to go shower now and then have my coffee. If the little ones wake up, I'll feed them breakfast. See you tomorrow. thanks for the help.
one of the babblets... and I love it :)
((Sprite))
my point sprite is finding meaning. If I can find meaning in a word, then that makes the game fun and worth playing. If I search for a word and every site goes 'did you mean... instead' it gets frustrating
also spelled sonsy, but I love the other version most.
just because a series of letters that a makes word has an unknown meaning to the babbler does not disqualify it from word status
Life is all about finding meaning, isn't it?
Hi & Bye BR!
have a good one, Scrabbler
my frustration is not at the unknown word but at the inabilty to find a meaning
well, our ability to learn is infinite, icepyro... if wordlists don't know a word, I usually google or take my old dictionaries out, and then find the meaning. If it is listed, it must have been a valid word with meaning once!
it is, Scrabbler! *hug*
i still hear sonsy used, sprite
not about me though haha
oh, lovely, Fordy! LOL... well thanks for telling me it is not obsolete. I love the word.
I can think of one word that I searched several dictionaries and google for and then finally someone gave me a link to a foreign wikipedia that had a definition
wordlists do know the word but not the definition
ultimately, I am an ultracrepedarian or aeolist but the fun is in the doing
yup, things like that. I love those, icepyro. We have a few babblets that appear to be vowelless... until you realise that W can be a vowel. If nothing else, at least it broadens one's sense of what is possible.
and in the sharing :D
I love this game because I am trying to expand my knowledge, but if I learn a word for the sole purpose of 'it might be in the game' and not what it means.. then I become frustrated
poor icepyro! Well, you will probably be frustatred often then here :)
me give me enough time to hunt down meanings and ill be ok
or we'll help you find them... there is a lot of teamwork on Babble, usually. Lots of people who appreciate meanings!
just wish the enable 'dictionary' was a real dictionary and not just wordlist so I could learn these words... thats all :)
icepyro, i agree, if it's a word you're not going to see outside babble, what's the point?
you will, in time, promise!
you can download ENABLE ... google it
g'morning everyone
hello, specificity
hi spec
Just before dawn -- the blackest hour. How to maintain equilibrium? babble, of course. Speaking of which, I came in on a discussion of Enable. Googled it but can't get to an actual list. Any suggestions?
go here, scroll down the page:http://personal.riverusers.com/~t hegrendel/software.html
oh dear. i have ground to a halt at 30 words.
you are cruising, Fordy
and.... that gives you a dictionary in the sense of 'here is a list of words that i can look up ad see they are words' not 'i look up this word and get this definition
Aha! Babble Knows. ty. 2nd question (and last, I think): so many of the odd words turn out to be defined as acronyms. Are these allowed? (I thought Enable was an official Scrabble source and thus did not permit them -- assume they're not valid here either)
they are usually not only just acronyms
usually they have a meaning outside their acronym form.
go for it, Fordy.
the only thing that matters is whether the word is accepted
that's a relief. I can accept not knowing the definition as long as I know there is one. This is a definition of Faith, I think.
toss logic to the wind
you might find some meanings, here, icepyro: http://tinyurl.com/2rb9ft
uh.. i disagree... I could make a word list that accepts a combination of letters.. that doesnt give it any authority or power.. I have much faith in many things, but the english language stretches that faith without adding more words with no meaning
the history of enable tells of gathering words from multiple sources ... many are obsolete ... you can choose to disagree --- won't change a thing
there is another good on-line dictionary - www.onelook.com - it searches numerous dictionaries at once
I love enable. If nothing else, it gives me something to nag about every day ;)
pain
oops
sorry
that one is valid, spec, though only when entered in the other box :D
haha out of all the sites, I can still give one word that is not in any of them :)
=) that is why I rarely chat in here
but was in a grid saturday
I'm taking Sprite's word on faith -- that "usually" the words have meanings. I am stretchhhhhhing that faith to include the rest of the vocabulary. This is what's known as Religion. Whew. Now that the philosophical fundamentals are covered, I guess I'd better get back to work on the grid.
lollllll jwr! Love your post :D
and spec, don't bother, it happens to all of us.
actually when I do look back at the grid im finding words easier.. the distraction kinda resets my searching
being human is no sin in babbleland
which is, alas, kind of rare, BabbleRabble :)
isn't it
yup, but great to have a few places where it isn't, isn't it?
I try to take the author's unknown to heart
Before I leave . . . there is another definition of "enabler" -- one who, with best intentions, provides support and encouragement to someone else's, uh, addictive behavior. grid grid grid grin (:
which always outranges the author's known... good thing to keep in mind, I agree.
morning. hmm, can someone do me a favor, and try to get to lowes.com? i'm thinking their site is down...
LOL jwr, so appropriate!
hi feather
yep feather... appears to be
cannot find page, feather
ok, thanks! just wanted to double check that it wasn't just me. i was on the homepage once, did a search, then it went kaput on me.
if you wrecked it, you did a good job, lol. Does not work for me either anymore ;)
that message is sent by their servers... not by the borswer unable to find it
I have attached the blinder to the right side of the screen (it IS on the same side in the Antipodes, no? or reversed, like the water circling the drain?) ... and can no longer see the chat. For all intents and purposes then, I have left. Luv and good holidays to you all.
so its all their servers
bye jwr!
bye jwr
be well, jwr
oh no, i broke lowes! lol!
problem is logged and will be fixed, they say... nothing left but patience, I fear, feather
*blows a kiss* and is gon...
I just got into lowes
yep its back
I kicked it and that did the trick
wtg sprite
*has a vicious kick*
yay!
ugh... I really hate when a word is so obvious I am sure I already had it and dismiss it from possibility until its the only possible answer and sure enough I had skipped it
one of the telltale signs of babblitis, icepyro. Very human :)
10 more to go and this is getting hard
go icepyro gooo!
yay, Qs done at last!
ok I think Im gonna save my last 9 til after some sleep
sleep well, icepyro
I didnt realize it was so late
oh and sprite if you find a dictionary site that has the word airn in it and is not the scottish wikipedia lemme know ;) it may be my new fav
bbl
ok, will keep an eye out then!

Good morning babble...another small one? :(
hi Uniquity, yes, small but interesting!
hello, Uniquity
or here: http://aaron.doosh.net/lexicon/04Lette rWords.html
and icepyro, if you are still lurking: this is an interesting site for searching: http://www.onelook.com/
final word, T4, how hard can it be :)
Yes, but Saturday when I am having a long car drive, a huge family celebration then Christmas with my Dad and brothers....the grid will be huge. Must....Finish...:)
found. Fireworks :)
congrats, sprite
Congratulations Sprite!!

Hi all
Hey Sam...merry Boxing Day! :)
Why thank you!
Merry boxing day indeed. Everyone have a good Christmas? :D
Very much so! Yourself?
Any more Manolos?
Fantastic, thank you! I'll still not get over how odd it is to have a Christmas tree at one end of the room and a Buddhist altar at the other C:
I wish, Uni ;) Unfortunately, my family aren't quite as open as my friends when it comes to high heels on their oldest son, LOL.
I think that is a concept which would boggle the mind...Sounds intriguing
(the tree/buddha thing)...not the heels, LOL
Hey, if you're the oldest, they've got more "chances" for non high heel wearers...tell them to let you enjoy it ;)
Lol! Well that's just the parents; mum gets her Buddhism; dad gets his Christianity...I get twice as many religious celebrations and skin the colour of very very milky coffee ;)
That sounds like a good thing **ponders hwo to attain this for herself**
Hi all, back to finish
Nancy Boy, haven't seen you here in a while, is that you in your icon
Oh Uni, I'll save the arguments over the heels and skirts until...well, after the new year at least! And well, Uni, I find the quickest way to obtain it would be to become half-Korean! Overnight, if you can :D
Not likely, Peri! It's the gorrrgeous Brian Molko in my icon ;)
ok, just wondering
Hm. I have 3-4 parents and none of them are Korean, so I guess I am stuck
Hey Peri!
3-4, Uni? How'd you manage that one? And more importantly...does that mean more presents on birthdays? :3
You'd think so! But...no, lol
Much more complicated holidays though!
Need last 2 APs - any clues?
LOL. I know all about complicated holidays; whenever I visit my maternal grandparents, that's about as complicated as you can get ;)
British sleep disorder - ap + opp. of yes + give p**ce a chance (and stick letter for the 7). Was in the grid a few days ago
Hmm. British spelling of a sleep disorder, not a disorder that affects only the British.
LMAO.
Clue for the first pa5/12?
I'm missing that one myself Phae, sorry
oh, NM. It is p +ae4
Thanks, Uni

anyone have the first an 4?
I know someone who is an** retentive
everyone has the first an4...andthey are probably sitting on it right now
ty, I can't believe I missed that
(that was actually a pretty polite clue, considering the word)
(did I kill the chat again?)

no, I don't think the an 4 is at all impolite
agreed bichon: it's the correct term - hi all !
can anyone help with the 7s ? I need the ep7
ep + not out + 3 vowels
yes, i have been monkeying with those 3 vowels for a while now, and i feel like a numbskull... can't get it
1st of 3 is 1st vowel...
and the starting E is from the rightmost column...
finally got it
i have a headache now
lol... took me a while myself after someone said 3 vowels... kept starting with the top E... head was spinning...
there are quite a few vowel combinations there!
ohhhh yessss...
dr5 escapes me - clues anyone ?

And hello, Uniquity.

exactly
I am happy it is over .. Hi all.. I get maxed out on the canned Xmas music.. drives me nuts
LOL ruru
Hi, ruru.
hi pam!!!!!
ok 17 to go and my chocolate haagen dazs is thawing
I avoid the canned music at all costs--listen to sports radio during the work day, my ipod shuffle commuting, and block out the stores' junk music...
I put my hands over my ears and yell "LALALALALALA"
I hate xmas music, I did my shopping with my ipod, antisocial but better than me going insane
LOL ruru
LOLOLOLOLOL
I hear that!
man there are a lot of p words
Some may call my behavior somewhat antisocial as well..
yes there are!
totally, kthdsn... Give me Neil Young and The talking heads over canned xmas...
too many p's and too many words with lots and lots of vowells
yes way too many vowels
down to 15 now
rounding the bend there praise
go Praise go!
sometimes I have a harder time with the little words than I do with the big ones
I vote that for the next grid we have only consonants so that we can spell Taxi Driver names and eye chart lines.
me too praise
LOL I think I really would go nuts then ruru

hey, peeps
na 5/14 please
Hello Tyger
must go, see you all tomorrow.
later, dawg
how's by you, mel?
nini dawg, sweet dreams
na5/14: Brit version of baby diapers, minus the upright vowel
tired and trying to get this evil little grid completed, lol
it is kinda nasty, isn't it :P
Hi tyger
yes it is thank you for the clue
getting stuck on a lot of the 5 letter ones
hey, herin. I finally got to take a look at your blog yesterday. nice going, kiddo! keep up the good work.
pa 5/12 please, have you completed it yet tyger?
have you the 5/6?.. it's one letter less
yes, mel, I finished just before I logged on here
pa5/12 is that Latin spelled version of the Greek hymn of praise
the first pa is the one i need
oops, WHICH pa5/12 did you need, natts?
that's the one I clued :)
do you need a more explicit clue?
hmm well I dont get your clue, lol no fish!
herin, I lost 40 lbs (about 18 kg) last year and first half of this
me? I don't need any.. the first pa... is an alternate spelling of the pe4/5
okay, 2nd time around coming up
Well done tyger
pa5/12: pa + a long, long period of time (3 vowels in a row)
oh wow tyger... way to go!!! hw'd you manage?
that's a good clue, tyger
thx, herin. mainly, it was by cutting down my portions
thank you
good clue
my stomach has adjusted and I now feel overstuffed if I try to eat the portions I used to
pi 6/21 please
yw, mel, and thx for the compliment on the clue :)
pi+ alternate spelling for darkness
pi6/21 rhymes with the word starting with f & meaning a limited amount as in a fi**** time
thank you
one to go I just have to find where it is lol
yw, mel - I seem to be on a roll with the clues :)
So i guess you saw the pics?
I didn't change the *things* I eat very much, though I do try to eat healthier now
yes, I surely did. It's quite obvious in your face
ta 6/21 please
ta6/21 is the Chinese name for a business tycoon - was also the name of a best-selling book about a Westerner in Hong Kong
ta6.21 is the 1st 3 letters of an eastern country + something you fry with
ta + another vowel + frying ***
thank you and that is fireworks for me
waves hello and then quickly dives into the grid in an attempt to finish before flip
wtg melae!
yay, mel
congratulations mel
Metal hello my dear
I'd like to lose about 20 more pounds, but I will wait at least another 6 months before starting to try. I was sick for 3+ months this past summer (and on antibiotics the whole time). still not that strong
I ate so much chocolate on christmas day i thought id exploid
thank you, what a tough little grid for me
Tyger take it easy
Yah Meliae
nice ta meetcha, meta! Miss Spot is obviously a great mom, but have you had her spayed now?
oh, I will, herin. I am really very cautious about all things related to my health
I gave away all the candy and cookies today, bundled it all up and took it the old folks home up the street, lol
yay, mel!
Thats nice of you Meliae
I'm sure they were delighted (however the staff felt) :D
6 to go but going to bed if get ep7
told them to hand it out to the elderly people who did not get any goodies
I changed my icon today. I'm very sad about the tigress in California, and even more for the families of the young men
It was scared and it freaked out
only 6? you shouldn't go to bed after ep7.. what else do you need?
ep7 is a witch lemme work out a clue
ep+not out+ 3vowels
people do not know how to deal with animals
ep + not out + 1st vowel + 4th vowel + telephone pole
according to a report on Reuters, they're investigating whether she was provoked
same tigress had attacked a keeper a year or so ago
they have no clue how she got out, which is scary
I heard that
she may have been simply too fierce to be kept in a zoo (as opposed to other kinds of places)
but I'm sad all the same
It's always sad when an animal has to suffer because of humans...
sorry to go so quiet there, I am scrambling to get words into the grid...
TIgers and other wild animals that like to eat the tasty meat should be breed in big open wildlife parks not kept in shitty little cages. I really hate zoos. I like the big open roaming parks with the tall fences
rae, did you get the word?
She was shot by police, I heard
need clues, meta?
yes, miss Spot is spayed as is Rumor and the boys Data, Myth, Legend and Lore are all neutered
I agree with you, herin. I said as much in my new comments
thanks tyger, I'm going to give it a good try on my own first
yay, meta! my kind of woman! ;)
yes, she charged the police who were trying to get her off the 3rd victim, and they shot her
hi herin... didn't mean not to acknowledge your greeting either
I used to breed show dogs, but I'm a strong adherent of spay/neuter of all others
sad. she was only doing what was instinctive
if there's no overwhelming reason to breed a particular animal (especially pets), they should be "fixed"
yes, natts, that's why I'm sad
afternoon everyone!
Metal that is ok *hugs)
my puppy (photo is on icon).. gets neutered in a week.
hey, MrP!
MRP ((HUGS))
loved the greetings you put up
Understood, Tyger.
sweet looking baby
tyvm herin... "bye" for a little while all, I'm going to blank out chat and concentrate on the grid for a bit
go to it, meta :)

alright, I'm back, store-brand Mt. Dew equivalent in hand, ready to ferret out the last 7
last three LA ??? want help?
{{{{{{{METAL}}}}}}} where have you been!?! HELLO!!!!!
i never say no to help!!!
LA 5/10 is a sort of breezeway in Hawaii, LA + North America abbreviation + first person subject pronoun
hi stid... the computer did a number on me again and I've been here at very rare intervals since... have a semi-dependable, semi-permanent loaner now though so should be able to be here more often. How have you been?
got it... and the other 2?????????????????
LA 6/18 is LA + short man's name, the last four lettes of OD 7
we are well, metal. Have been on regularly, but not my old hours since Summer began.
last LA is french word for rabbit LA + ***s and needles (American expression for when your legs fall asleep)
LA 6/18 is LA + short man's name, the last four lettes of OD 7................. i treid this... doesnt work
LA + last four letters of OD 7...
try again *figners crossed*
lanate" was not found in the dictionary
really -- it really is the LA 6...
hunh... i tried again and it accepted... whats the deal with that
do you have an extra space before or after the word?
4 to go
now 6 letter word for french rabbit
hmmm
five letter word for french rabbit...
go metal go!
Fireworks!!!
LA 5 could also be clued: la* (what your legs make when you sit down) + opposite of out
YAY saddy!!!!!
yayyyyyy Saddy!
YAy Me!!!
nd puzzle ever lol
my 2nd puzzle ever
well done! it was not a particularly easy puzzle, either.
does the ap7 relate to the 6 immediately before it?
yes it was sOOOO tricky
yes it does metal
lol, it figures... i'm in trouble then
clue for the second ap6 please
AP 7 is an adjective form... add a consonant
second AP 6 is ap + opposite of yes + two vowels
ap6 is a technical term for suspension of external breathing
ap+(opposite of YES)+2nd vowel +first vowel
and to that add a right angle consonant for ap7
geeez, haddock me please for forgetting the Brit. spelling of that one!
down to 1 now, the dreaded ep7
*WHACK* >*)--(((((----<<
EP 7: ep*dural + n4 (entrance to a temple or church)
***reels from stid's mighty blow
LOL just like watching monty python...
ep+(1 letter word for ME)+the 2nd na4
wooohoooo, ty stid and Saddy... I now have Fireworks!!!
