hubby did finally contact me last night but was only prepared to discuss the money i needed for the kids back to school stuff - once i started texting about "us" he clammed up again

Oh, ouch, I bet that was painful! Will you be able to communicate with her at all while she is away?

He must be feeling guilty about something... to cut off communication...

1:06 am

keep going mlf and you havethem all

my mom died in 98, and I still pick up the phone to call her.

i got the ce 6 7 8 and 9 woohooo

1:33 am

1:33 am

1:33 am

ty ruru -- got it

1:33 am

49 is no baby

1:33 am

good jilli

1:33 am

lol...when i hit 50...im eligible to "retire" from this job....and the crummy hours etc lol

1:34 am

if you could only be paid to play babble

wow that would be a grand opportunity... it's a "baby", if you are older LOL LOL

1:34 am

only one year seven months and a couple of weeks....but im not counting :)

1:35 am

flosey, had to do some chores yesterday and have to do library tomorrow -- hope I don't have a coughing fit

lol I started working too young, and even tho I was with a company 21 years... I couldn't officially "retire"

1:36 am

they kick us out the door at 56

with good packages that would be great

1:36 am

morning all.... dern, just when I was in the mood for small, fast and easy. How are you all?

1:37 am

dart -- what kind of job is it?

1:37 am

hi spritey

1:37 am

i do air traffic control

1:37 am

hi sprite :)

1:37 am

Hi, sprite, and everyone who came in while I was wandering.

1:37 am

oh, I see -- pretty tense stuff

you should get to retire earlier than 56... way too stressful of a job

1:38 am

few more grey hairs now compared to when i started...i come here to relax :)

1:38 am

ugh, 21 re words

lol I bet... glad to see just how fast you are on your keyboard at word games lol!!!

ditto that jili

1:39 am

im hoping for 50-51...depends on the stock market/health/ and lots of other things

1:39 am

*keeps fingers crossed for dart*

if you retire, do you think you will stay in MN

1:39 am

wow dart, sure have to be on your toes

hi sprite!!

1:40 am

not if my wife has a say....( and I think she does) lol

1:40 am

she does, dart, believe me, she does (evil grin)

1:40 am

where will you head Dart

1:40 am

:)

1:41 am

i know

lol

1:42 am

she is from new mexico...would love to go back there.....she wont go to the SE us.....so either full time SW us...or split time

sounds like my family; only opposite; I would love to move to nc... and hubby is too homebound to IN

ouch on the split time comment

1:42 am

my parents and one sis are in FLA....other broth and sis are here

1:43 am

sounds good, I like the SW

1:43 am

en 7 clue?

1:43 am

so you have a bit of travel to look forward to

my parents moved to FL... wouldn't want to live there... I've only been to Phoenix/Scottsdale, but no place else in SW

1:44 am

i just want to be able to travel when i want and not have to bid vacation time 15 months ahead like the last 24 yrs

so true on that

where in FL?

1:44 am

high on list...europe....australia/NZ

1:45 am

I heard FL was a great place to live... for oranges.

1:45 am

that's the pits Dart, great to be retired and you can go when the good rates are available

LOL sprite; my folks loved it, and I enjoyed a few vacations there, but never wanted to live there

1:45 am

my parents moved to "The Villages"....in central florida...you hear their ads all the time on golf broadcasts on the weekends....sister/family in sarasota

1:46 am

*winks at Dee*

friends of ours are there now until April 1

and my parents lived in Sarasota from 73 - 1998

1:47 am

minnesota is great in the spr/summ/fall if you can avoid the mosquitos

they really loved Sarasota, and I loved St. Armands for shopping LOL

1:47 am

We both just received a credit from West Jet because they rescheduled our flight late night before we were to leave early morning

1:47 am

that is nice, flosey!

1:47 am

Key West isn't a bad place to live -- I had an old friend born and bred there who went back to stay after a life aborad

1:48 am

1:51 am

1:51 am

florida is nice in the winter...nice for taxes...but very very humid from march-nov...and you have to live with the threat of hurricanes and possibly evacuating on a few days notice for 4 months or so

1:51 am

1:51 am

1:52 am

1:55 am

came back 10 days later...no stoplights/ no power/ no gas stations..airport had just reopened that morn

1:55 am

I keep seeing remorse, which would not even be an 8.

2:18 am

sprite - the de 8 is almost to the 9

2:18 am

Kiwi, someone he4 suggested you might take some liquid food things, like people use for certain diets. It might give you some nutrition.

2:19 am

ohhhh thanks kittychan! I was looking at the de8 as a comparative. Did not realise it was a verb as well, lol.

2:20 am

yw

2:21 am

Is the ea8 a compound word?

2:21 am

yes

2:21 am

but a weird one

2:22 am

Clue for the ea8?

2:22 am

actually sprite i went to see a natropath today for the first time ever

2:22 am

Oh, nevermind, I got it. That is weird!

2:22 am

I'd love one too

2:22 am

was a bit weird but she gave me some suppliments to help

2:22 am

go ahead, please!

2:22 am

what cavemen use when they cannot he-- anymore, was given before

2:23 am

put a rock in your head?

2:23 am

so i tried them tonight but they didnt stay down

2:23 am

Kiwi, that is very wise of you, I am so glad. You need some nutrition. This might help you regain your balance a little. *hugs* You are a hero to me, I really mean that.

2:23 am

ok, got it this time!

2:24 am

wow, very weird indeed

2:24 am

thanks :D

2:24 am

2:24 am

well my new boss is very health concious and is fronting up the cost of the natropath for me up to $500 to help me loose weight and destress

2:24 am

You're able to keep liquids down, right?

2:24 am

and she does bowen therapy treatments which i got one today and that was awesome

2:25 am

i can keep water and juice down but thats it but when i mixed the suppliment with the water it didnt last down long

2:25 am

what's bowen therapy?

2:25 am

kiwi, take it one thing at a time, darling. Try to keep one down, with a drink you like. Next day, perhaps 2. Take it slow.

2:25 am

what a fabulous boss!

2:25 am

from the phamplet: a series of selectively placed transverse muscole fibre moves to stimulate the soft tissue between muscles and skin

2:25 am

2:27 am

2:28 am

2:28 am

Sounds like a responsible position, but with lots of opportunities.

or "past tense" of tr6/24

2:56 am

Oh, sorry, there are 2 tr8's, I need the first.

2:56 am

Thanks, Fran.

2:56 am

the Ns are killing me. Thanks to some clues I found some totally stoooopid no words.

2:56 am

yw, sorry, don't have that one

2:57 am

well i'm heading to bed now... got 99 of them out of the way

2:57 am

night rows!

2:57 am

goodnight all :)

2:57 am

G'night, Rows!

2:58 am

morning everyone hubby2b just gone to work, 278 word grid, shopping trip with Mari later and the day off, just needs to be summer and the day would perfect :-)

2:58 am

hi katie!

2:59 am

jellen, i bet it's a compound word starting with the growing thing...just a guess

3:00 am

hi katie, sounds great

3:01 am

Hi, katie!

3:01 am

I did wish for a big grid ;-)

Ahhh Summer, I love summer.

3:02 am

thank you then katie. :-)

3:02 am

Oh I just realised I taped a programme last night so I can watch that now as well :-)

3:02 am

tr8/45 comes alphabectically before the growing thing, though. Hmmmm. . .

3:02 am

there is a weird tr8. The growing thing minus last letter + 1/100 or coin + owel

3:03 am

That's it! Thanks, sprite!

3:03 am

thanks sprite!

3:03 am

ty! That is a weird word!

3:03 am

yvw :) Took me ages to find it as well.

3:03 am

Thanks for the clue I would never have got that one

3:05 am

was my last 8, lol. Now 2 more 7s and all the biggies will be accounted for

3:05 am

Any advice on flirting for me? (Sorry, I have a one-track mind tonight)

3:05 am

appear attainable, be unavailable, is what comes to mind, Jellen ;)

3:06 am

Jellen, i did a lot of flirting through text on the phone when I met Hubby2b, just remember that you have to be yourself though

3:06 am

Jellen - sorry, but I would say be careful to not take it too seriously.... people say things online that they would never say in person and then sometimes they just disappear without explanation.

3:07 am

That's pretty easy. Most of them are extremely long-distance.

3:07 am

Thanks, kitty. Right now, it's just fun having nice things said to me.

3:08 am

it is something to have fun with. Best advice I have is to enjoy it :D

3:08 am

good attitude!

Who is flirting??

3:09 am

Jellen is! At long last! :)

3:09 am

I'm flirting on Facebook, red.

Oooh jellen....

I should join face book so i can flirt...

3:10 am

Divorced after 20 years, separated since August 2005, and I'm just getting around to flirting.

Is he awesome??

Never ever married...

3:11 am

Actually, I have several guys who are corresponding with me right now.

Jellen, you amaze me.

3:12 am

you should. Wonderful.

3:12 am

i'm not going to say too much about on-line flirting because i married one of the guys i flirted with and i don't think that's jellen's goal. :-)

3:12 am

Sure, it's all based on a fuzzy photo of me taken several years ago, but hey. . .

I had a guy last year who seemed awesome, but then all of a sudden he got strange, sooo...

3:12 am

lol Fran!

LOL at/both fran and Jellen...

3:12 am

and it's a great picture jellen!

3:13 am

Hi Guys -I'm just starting - had a nap this afternoon that turned into much longer than i thought lol

3:13 am

I don't know Fran. I'm certainly not going to turn away from Mr. Right, should he by some extreme chance appear.

3:14 am

hi Tanja, in that case you needed it.

3:14 am

okay jellen, look for me when you think he's THE ONE. :-)

3:14 am

hi tanja!

3:14 am

Hi, Tanja

3:14 am

I'd be interested to hear your story some day, Fran.

3:15 am

sprite, i think i just found one of the weird no words

3:15 am

Oh, and one of them started a Scrabulous game with me.

3:15 am

yay Fran!

3:15 am

oh good, you can find out if he's smart, or at least has a good vocabulary. :-)

3:16 am

Now I found that not looking for the 'one' meant that I found him, I just wanted to get back into dating and ended up with Hubby2b

3:17 am

Maybe I might win a Scrabulous game!

3:17 am

same here katie, wasn't really looking, but happened to find a good one and he was at the same point in his life

3:17 am

lol jellen

3:19 am

knowing that they have some intelligence does help jellen ;-)

3:19 am

I can tell quite a bit from their messages to me.

Arugh, I think I can never meet anyone again...

3:20 am

red, never give up :-)

3:20 am

red, i'm pretty sure that's not true

3:21 am

Red, one can always hope!

Well, I never give up hope, but, I also dont have too much hope...

3:21 am

of course you can, red

In some ways it is nice to be single, but I do hate the wierd looks I get when people ask me about my children...especially during the holidays...

3:25 am

so... you just need a special guy. He had to mature until now before he was ready to me4 you.

3:25 am

I'm childless, too.

3:26 am

It is awkward, because people assume I have kids.

3:26 am

not a good thing to assume

3:26 am

People assume that I want kids!

3:27 am

You should se the ones you get when you snark back that "I'm sterile. Tyvm."

3:27 am

Evening everyone.

3:27 am

Hi, moon!

3:27 am

hi moony!!

3:27 am

Morning moon :-)

3:28 am

I tell them I sublimate with pets =)

3:28 am

Lol, moon. Then they think you're crazy.

3:28 am

When I got my two kitties to go with the elder cat and the hamster I announced to everyone that my family was complete!!

3:30 am

I don't know how many endless conversations about kids I've sat through, with a polite question about my pets at the end.

3:30 am

Or worse. they want to see wallet photos of the "kids".

3:31 am

get in quickly with file full of photos of the pets :-)

3:32 am

I have pics of my cats on my phone :-)

3:32 am

Yeah. It can suck Jellen. But Mostly I find it amusing, now. Dont need to tell you how surreal it can be, I'm sure =)

3:32 am

billy joel song in the grid

3:32 am

I dont have either of those.... I just bring in the kids hehe

3:32 am

And say the terrier takes after me, SO much!

3:33 am

but that's true moon. :-)

3:33 am

I'm going to apologize in advance in case I drop off again, tonight. My computer is seeming to disapprove of Babble, recently.

3:33 am

Late giving Merlin his shot. brb

3:34 am

It is Fran =) I think that's what makes them shut up =D

3:34 am

3:35 am

congrats sprite

3:35 am

Hiya and congrats!

Waves. I found that when people question my choice on children i tell them i have a fur kid and that i like the million dollars it would take to raise a child in my pocket as i don't have enough money to live on my self

3:36 am

I tried that once, but found I liked pity worse than the "She's crazy" looks.

Some people are just rude.

3:38 am

I'll go one better and say Most, herin

3:38 am

4:01 am

I've started flirting on Facebook.

DO tell

4:02 am

what! no way lol

4:02 am

so have you met anyone interesting yet?

4:02 am

There are several applications where you 'meet' men and decide whether or not to flirt with them.

4:03 am

Yes, I have several guys I've added to my friends list.

4:03 am

well they have to love words would be a requirement and of course cats

4:03 am

One started a Scrabulous game with me.

4:04 am

I'm being rather silly about it, but it's the first time I've flirted in years.

4:04 am

nice, and a fun way to chat

4:05 am

flirting is good for you

4:05 am

Any advice on flirting?

Yah Jellen

Oh and this is just ridiculous http://tinyurl.com/yw2du5

4:06 am

keep it light!

4:06 am

and be yourself, or dont if you just feel like being silly and know it is not going to go anywhere

4:09 am

That's terrible, herin

It is

4:11 am

Thanks, meliae. I'm trying to keep all my conversations light and fairly innocent. I'll leave the whips and whipped cream for the other gals, lol.

4:11 am

LMAO too funny

We have a lawyer in Aus that advocates for prisoners in America.

Jellen you little minx :D

4:12 am

I just might have to get a face book sounds like fun

4:12 am

I could use some flirting in my life, besides the cute guy at the grocery store, lol

4:12 am

It can be a huge waste of time, too, but I'm enjoying it.

4:13 am

You should get a facebook account, mel. It's easy to set up.

That is cool Jellen

4:13 am

I will look into it tommorow, Ihad better get my butt to bed its going to be 3am before I get settled in

4:13 am

I will go look real fast now, brb

4:14 am

Yeah, I decided it was well past time to have some fun with the opposite sex.

4:14 am

Unfortunately, the social opportunities where I live are minimal.

As long as your not hurting anyone Jellen who cares

4:19 am

True, herin. I just have to remember to have fun and not take anything too seriously.

Jellen why bi'

Ok opps

Jellen Why not have fun. I was trying to find my kitty

Clues for the 9s plz

5:26 am

Movie, I only have one and it's part of a whole row: ce6/24, then build on it all the way to ce9/66 (so there is a ce6, 7,8 and 9 all related)

Hi Mar mar and MM!

Would you mind to clue the 6, 24, ad I am lacking it.

5:28 am

is it the sink hole word that builds to the 9?

The other nine is a de 9 and means to move away from the middle....

5:28 am

Hi Red. I was on earlier today and quit early. I get so frustrated when there are almost 200 words that are invisible to me!!! Now my little Marcus is here to help me!

Marcus is sooo smart. Hello Marcus!

5:30 am

early good morning to you all - I have some time before work and I just found a row of ce 6,7,8 9 that starts with what sidewalks are made of

5:30 am

Cake is lovely, with frosting...

5:35 am

milk sounds excellent...

grrr, I have come to a grinding halt...

5:38 am

G'd morning Babblers! Fun little grid this morn.

5:46 am

hello again

5:48 am

hey lynx! :-)

5:49 am

5:51 am

5:51 am

Hi all... 170 to go for me... a long, long, way!

5:51 am

oh no, I meant players

5:52 am

Hi Jandy, I'm just a smidge ahead of you

5:53 am

Thanks red. :-) 77 left to go here. Some very unusual words in this grid. I'm lovin' it.

5:53 am

"Unusual" strikes fear into my heart

5:54 am

hi, Lori,lynxxx and Jandy - does anyone have the y's - I have only 2 - only one "unusual" - need 2 more but haven't checked the list yet

5:54 am

Only one - 6/24

5:54 am

ye 6/7 combo, yo 4/8, 4/7

5:55 am

ok, thanks, I have the yo's - I'll start looking for the ye's now

5:55 am

I ahve 'em all if you need 'em. Jandy, extend that 6 with a consonant

5:55 am

add a cons to that for 7.36 Jandy

5:55 am

6/24 7/36 if that helps JBV

5:55 am

OOh, thanks, got it

5:55 am

got'em, thanks lori

5:56 am

and lynxxx

5:56 am

The t's were wild. half a pot of coffee on those..... :-)

Sadly...I have no tiles grayed yet, except the three to tart with...

er start with... no tarting here.

5:58 am

7 boxes left to grey out

5:58 am

pleased to hear it!

Go Lori Go! Go Lori Go!!!

5:58 am

Oh nice job Lori... I haven't done one yet!

6:00 am

It became apparent to me early on, to save my sanity, Lickety's was required. Self preservation. :-)

Lickety and I have a date when i get off work and finish am task of attempting to run...

6:01 am

I'm thinking that way already... two Advil and a nice lie down would be the other approach...

that may also happen...

6:01 am

did you contact Lickety yet Jandy?

6:02 am

No - that's tomorrow's job. At a friend's place tonight... spreading the disease!

LOL Jandy, I was just playing and yet again, the docs are mesmerized...

6:03 am

Just remember, BabbleExpert will cut your time in 2

Yes if i could find the words, it would!!!

6:03 am

Babble Expert saved my marriage! ***yes, it's that good*** :-)

6:03 am

Oh, I'll be on to it! Been a very long day today and there's no way this one will ever see a finish, methinks...

No Kidding Lori!

6:04 am

no7.36 is a doozy

Perhaps if I use babble Expert, i will get married??

6:04 am

Grin - That's quite the recommendation LoriP!

Ok closing up this shop for now...

6:07 am

I'll see your 2 weird no 7/26's and raise you one really weird tr 8/45 :-)

6:08 am

typo *no 7/36's

See you all a bit later...2 hrs of work left, and then some morning tasks....

6:08 am

Oh, now you're frightening me. Be gentle with me - I'm a novice!

6:08 am

no7.26 negative + where your heart is

6:08 am

Oh, now you're frightening me. Be gentle with me - I'm a novice!

6:14 am

Oh, sorry lynx. My bad. I had the n's done. Thanks though! ***miscommunication on my part, again, my apologies.***

6:15 am

thats OK

6:15 am

hi everyone. I'd be glad for a clue for the tr8/45 lynxx

6:16 am

tr9.45 most of the woody plant + a penny + a vowel. Hi!

6:18 am

thanks! That was an 8, not a 9, right?

6:18 am

yes - only an 8 - do you want 9s?

6:19 am

have one of them, the ce9.

6:19 am

the other is de9.66 builds from the moral and correct de6.24

6:20 am

thanks! Hadn't tried that because I was only seeing it in the moral meaning, not the off kilter

6:21 am

you are not the only one

6:29 am

saved the worst for last. re's to conquer, then this beast is tamed.

6:35 am

Just about to enter my first word...stupid distraction

6:46 am

I suppose the watchful eyes of England's law-giver should be watching the PB

6:46 am

100 left and i could swear that there's not another word to be had in this grid! grrrr

6:46 am

Have added quite a few "things" since I put that on flickr, will update it later. Hello Haz :)

6:46 am

I think we shoud add in a box like in the peanuts strip, "the doctor is in, % cents"

6:46 am

Absolutely right, Uniquity.

6:46 am

And that would be 5 cents

6:47 am

Hello FMItch - going to see the new improved version now.

HAven't put it up there yet Haz

6:47 am

Hi Jac

6:49 am

Jacula - good afternoon! At Scarlet's instigation I decided to let the good people of babble see that I haven't been raving.

6:49 am

Some people thought that I had used photoshop. They don't know me very well, do they?

6:50 am

I'm sure you're the envy of many, Haz!:)

6:50 am

Shocking there mere thought of it Haz!

6:50 am

It has caused a stir, that's for sure. FM has requested a pic of me with the Queen at our last meeting.

6:50 am

BBS. Son's about to go off to The Netherlands for an indefinite period. I want to say goodbye.

7:25 am

I just did, FM, very clever

7:31 am

FM... I think this looks like so much fun... Hi, Angel... I'm a-goin' in!! LOL, kat... LOVE your purple crayon...that's for RE words, right...

7:31 am

Hi Angel and EvaN

7:32 am

i am ok red... hubby working again today..waiting to call a buddy of his who is house ridden ( knee surgery) as he not allowed to drive yet...and I think I willtake him on some errands...

7:32 am

yeap...its for the re's

7:32 am

we bought a new printer yesterday. our old one is broken. if we can get it fixed, my husband will use it.

7:32 am

and healthy fruits.... who wants healthy fruits when we want chocolate

7:33 am

kattie... you're turning into the Clara Barton of the housebound... not a bad thing at all... what a huge heart you have...

7:33 am

Angel... they are so reasonably-priced these days...

7:33 am

How about strawberries dipped in chocolate?

7:33 am

he was excellent to hubby while he was in hospital..and since is home....its simply payback

7:34 am

You are still an angel, kattie.. :-)

7:34 am

( watch me die..litterally... allergic to strawberries...I stop breathing)

7:34 am

Ooops strike that then.

7:34 am

With me, it's cashews...

7:35 am

ouch... I adore cashews....

7:35 am

Anaphalactic shock...

7:35 am

You poor ladies...strawberries and cashews are delicious

7:35 am

FYI there is a good example of a crwth in the PB

7:35 am

ok..red..make a note..should we ever meet... no strawberry pies with merrainge crust laced with cashews

7:35 am

yeap..anaphalactic here too

7:36 am

watching GMA, Dr. Marie Savard who is on now, used to be my doctor

7:36 am

crwth

7:36 am

I love strawberries and cashews

7:37 am

Hi Uni... I forgot to applaud and throw bouquets at you the other day... you had disappeared... Hey everyone: Uni was on top of the listings... Hail the Queen!!

7:38 am

Was I really?!?! I have wanted to be on the top forever! I wish I hadn't missed it :(

7:38 am

For a brief flicker of fame... Uni, I think it was on Monday...

7:38 am

ooo wow Uni!

7:38 am

Hail Uni!

7:39 am

Well, that is super exciting :D

7:45 am

8:06 am

Happy Birthday to Mom's Mama!!! {{{Hugs}}}

8:06 am

Mom, wish her the best for me.

8:06 am

I can only wish, Mom...\

8:07 am

thanks Scarlet, she is very very dear to me

8:07 am

Treasure every moment, Mom... I adored mine, too...

8:07 am

Knock, knock.. hi everybody, I'm late this morning.. (-:

8:07 am

that was on all the local new channels this a.m.

8:07 am

good morning Aloy. See you later, have to leave for a bit

8:07 am

Howdy sunshine!! It's a beauty!!

8:07 am

so how is ur menu shaping up for sunday red?

8:08 am

oh Scarlet, I do. I am so blessed that she and Daddy are still with us

i didn't hear about edwards...ty for the update.

8:08 am

Have a spectacular day, Mom...

8:08 am

Happy birthday to Mom's Mom!!!!

8:08 am

yes, indeedy! back to wearing shorts here in Florida.. voters said McCain and Clinton..

8:08 am

You're welcome, TO and good day to you!

8:08 am

thanks Annie.

8:08 am

I will relay all the good wishes to her. Bye for now

8:08 am

hi Aloy!

8:08 am

But no Democratic primary in Florida, right, Aloy?

8:08 am

happy birthday to your mom, mom!!

8:09 am

thanks Une

8:09 am

( oh crap john edwards pulling out of race )

8:09 am

Yep, kat.

8:09 am

he is? already?

8:09 am

Hi une!

8:10 am

i like him... he seems genuine... too nice for politics

8:10 am

and hurshy

8:10 am

hi there, Annie.. Scarlet, Fla. was penalized for having an early primary... Giuliani is pulling out.. I know someone who will cry.. not me though

8:10 am

hey, annie! :-)

8:10 am

Menu is in the creation stages, kattie... definitely a heap of barbequed ribs... for starters...

8:10 am

gosh i hope his voters go to obama

8:10 am

Eggxacalakly, Aloy... :-D

8:10 am

me too, hursh!

8:10 am

They just might, hursh.

8:11 am

i dunno, pundits were saying clinton...

8:11 am

prove pundits wrong, people!

8:11 am

man I wish I could get behind obama... Ijust...can't.... funny feeling... ( and I've read his books..I truly like this guy)

8:11 am

'sok, you're in canada

8:12 am

dunno why you can't rehoe a garden.. i do all the time

8:12 am

its NOt ok...

8:12 am

ur government has HUGe repurcussions on canada

8:12 am

i know i just mean it's ok for me, cause you don't vote here

8:13 am

i think obama is a very de6.24 man..

bye, all. don't want to tiptoe around this powder keg.

8:13 am

Right you are, kattie... this is shaping up to be a barnburner... Mr. Obama's victory speech after winning SC was an echo from the past... then Caroline and Teddy jumped on board... and Toni Morrison... which is, on the face of it, meaningless... but it carries heft in the party...

8:13 am

Later, TO

8:14 am

i don't trust him...

8:14 am

bye, TO

8:14 am

I'm off, too. BBL for final 65. Don't want to be tempted to use the list yet.

8:14 am

Thanks for the word, Aloy...

8:14 am

(-: glad you caught it, Scarlet

i just want to stay middle class. and not pay for everyone else to do whatever they please and look to govt to bail them out.

hey jacs!

8:15 am

and... with the world in the mess its in..he has no foreign policy experience...whereas hillary does....and she might be power hungry ( but what politician in the running isn't ) and she is bloody smart

8:15 am

( but when u consier they talking jeb bush running in 2012...if clinton gets in..that is the potential for 30 years of clinton/ bush

8:17 am

AAAAAArrrrrrrrrrgggggggggghhhhhhhhhh.. .. not another Bush... I hadn't heard that, Kattie... now I am going to go in the Babble cave and cry for the rest of the day!!

8:17 am

hee hee, monkies found ye6.24, start of the opposite of tomorrow

8:18 am

ban the bush.. sorry, folks.. can't even stand to listen to the shrub

8:18 am

:-) YOu're good, Aloy...

8:18 am

( up side on that one..jeb seems like the only decent bush out there...he has been very effective ( seems from up here anyway) dealing with all the hurricanes in fl.... but with the ease of access of federal $$$ I suppose it would be hard for him to mess that one up

8:18 am

aloy, I could not have said it any better

8:18 am

The late Molly Ivins did a book "Shrub" and it was a hoot and a half

8:19 am

whew, don't want to offend anyone, but he offends ME...

8:19 am

i can't either aloy... I couldn't believe he got in the first time let alone afte r4 years of dealing with him

8:20 am

BBL,time for a shower

8:20 am

re: experience - cheney & co had lots of it, and as obama has pointed out, that didn't get us anywhere good. it's judgment that counts.

8:21 am

go, hursh!!!

8:21 am

scarlet, loooved Molly Ivins . . . sigh

8:22 am

i worry about the whole kennedy "get behind cus u remind us of...." thing.... things are bad and people are trying to get better by remembering the good old times

8:23 am

have to say I found Caroline's speech very moving

8:24 am

i did too..and that is scary... she's been trained... she is a professional lawyer... she was groomed by private schooling.. and international travels... she grew up as USA's royalty

8:24 am

you know what i think is funny? the whole race thing. obama's half white. why can't white people be supposed to be voting for his white half, if black people are supposed to be voting for his black half?

8:24 am

would be like a speech from prince charles picking who is runing for britains prime minister...

8:24 am

Morning, everyone. Oh no... political discussion. *claps hands over eyes and ears* La La La La La La La

8:25 am

lol, hi there Judi

8:25 am

yeah, prince charles really influences what the brits do...

8:25 am

don't agree, carlee . . .

8:25 am

doesn't matter if he does or not..he'd never do it...

8:25 am

everyone's been trying to get their ears to stick out more in england for decades

8:27 am

Hi all

8:27 am

just..looking from a distance... we see the brits..we are completely inundated by US up here... and watching from a distance... its just a bit... over the top from the perspective up here

8:27 am

h

8:28 am

everyone up here that I have talked to..some of the editorials... jaws dropped over the kennedy thing

8:28 am

hello, whisper..

8:28 am

hi inge... ( she's TRYING to lurk )

8:29 am

hi aloy

8:29 am

Hi, inge... how are YOUR politics in Detroit? I read that the "girlfriend" has "retired"... LOL

8:29 am

mayor is giving a speech at 7:30 pm today

8:29 am

Hi, Whisper! Welcome to the madding world...

8:30 am

Hi scarlet

8:30 am

This should prove VERY intersting, kattie... what a can of eels that affair is...

8:30 am

has anyone finished the grid today?

8:30 am

hi there whisper...

8:30 am

hi carlee :)

8:30 am

well..when people lie about their personal life..it usually comes back to bite u in the tookus

8:30 am

Many of us will finish it, Whisper... we are seriously addicted to this thing... and when we start, we HAVE to finish...

8:31 am

ouch, wouldn'

8:31 am

t want a bite in MY tookus!

8:31 am

But carlee, the American democratic system, the whole idea is that people use their words (preferably not their money) to influence people to vote for the candidate they think is best. I don’t think that people who are influential (and thoughtful on such issues) should refrain from participating in that.

8:31 am

i`m sooo confused..........have a word that IS in the dictionary, but it won`t accept it when I type it in. It says it is NOT in the dictionary!!

8:32 am

happens all the time with Enable, whisper.. sorry..

8:32 am

Ha! Welcome to Babble, Whisper. That happens sometimes.

8:32 am

Whisper, welcome to the arbitrary world of Enable...

8:32 am

you can tell us what it is since it is not accepted

8:32 am

lol hi Judi

8:32 am

bbl...................

8:33 am

Well, we DO have a word that describes many hippies from the 60s... LOL

8:33 am

*pops into chatlog* any babblers familiar with microsoft photo editor?

8:33 am

**Disappears when techie talk starts**

8:34 am

don't use it, sorry Eva

8:34 am

just trying to smudge the edges of an image, and cant get the smudge tool to activate. :/

8:35 am

did you read the 'help'? sometimes it actually does help.

8:35 am

i understand that hursh... and ultimately those who care and those who don't and those who understand and those who pretend to...should all come out in the wash at the end... all i am saying is... that particular recommendation from the "royal family" of the US was... shocking... especially this early in the primary season...( at least wait until super tuesday )... before the convention..fine...but.. I guess is reminscent of kennedy's election itself

8:35 am

yeah, read it, and it just says to click on the icon. but the icon isnt activated.... *hrmmmm*

8:38 am

i don't think it was shocking. and i don't think it would be shocking coming from anyone. and i do think it would be more influential coming from donald trump or julia roberts or a host of others than from caroline kennedy

8:38 am

like oprah?

8:39 am

well oprah yes and no, she's influential, but there's probably a lot of people going "it's because of race" in that case.

8:39 am

I'm not particularly swayed by anyone's endorsement of a candidate. Oprah, Caroline, etc. Frankly, those endorsements scare because there are so many folks that just follow and don't bother looking beyond a face and celebrity.

8:40 am

but you don't, mom, so maybe other people don't either :) maybe we are too pessimistic. and maybe the people who would vote in that manner are the people who don't end up bothering to vote at all.

8:41 am

( that pretty much what I am saying... such a strong political..iconic family...of a president who was controversial....and apopulace who is sympathetic due to untimely deaths in the family...the responce up here...has been... shock...at this point hursh..i am the messenger of how that was perceived up here..from a distance

8:48 am

I wish folks would get away from "party loyalty". I'm glad, at least locally, they did away with the "party" lever. Make those narrow-minded folks actually fill in individual votes! And why can't candidates just talk about what they're hoping to do and tout their own agenda and not be so nasty to/about their opponents? Proof of mentality is that you-know-who was voted in a second time. His appearance on TV, etc., brings out the worst in me!

8:49 am

( that why am sad edwards bowing out..he seemed to rise above the squabbling of clinton/ obama... he is decent )

8:50 am

OK, I'm off my soap box. On to the grid! My BP's rising! Later, kids!

8:50 am

bye, mom.. (-:

8:50 am

bye mom

8:51 am

Kattie... we depart philosophies on him... he lied to John Kerry and told him he would NOT run again, and they are "divorced" in a very public squabble... then Kerry threw his support to Mr. Obama... he has created some of the most curious commercials... with his parents... not touching... just STANDING there, posing... very distant, very cold and clinical... I am all about character... and his has revealed itself to be wanting... dearly.

8:52 am

it's just that shock is such a strong word, it seems to imply a judgment that she shouldn't have done it... and some of the other words like "scary" and "worry" - also strong words... bush is scary. i'm not sure any of the current candidates rise to that level.

8:54 am

just an opinion, most elected officials go into office with a clean slate, but come out mostly soiled by the dirty politics going on in Washington

8:54 am

u've been privy to the commercials... we will start to see the commercials up here this week....... and am just saying how especialy the 50-60 yr olds up here who lived throughthe kennedy era... good and bad have responded..the word shock..is being bandied about up here

8:54 am

true enough snags....

8:54 am

A clean politican can not accomplish anything

8:54 am

HI, snags... they learn the game inside the Beltway...

8:55 am

Speaking of politics... phantom word: enema.

8:55 am

exactly

8:55 am

what we need is a clean sweep of all politicians

8:55 am

<snort> good one judi

8:55 am

Hello all

8:55 am

help with en7 and en8 please

8:55 am

See, I say "enema" and Peri shows up. What are the odds??

8:56 am

Ok, I am done whinning about the politics of this Country

8:56 am

??? I have been here, just avoiding the political discussion

8:56 am

bottom of the page in a book, peri... you will find them there, or sometimes in the back of the book

8:56 am

Kattie... I lived through the Kennedy era, and it was painful... not a JFK fan, even in retrospect... but, he brought a fresh touch to American politics, and his Catholocism became a non-issue... the comparisons are telling... he had no foreign policy experience either, and the Bay of Pigs nearly cost us our country...

8:57 am

;-). Me too, Peri. Trying to bring about a change of subject off politics.

8:57 am

doh, thanks Aloy, they have been in the grid before,just couldn't see them

8:57 am

Exactly. Why do people think a kennedy backing is good?

8:57 am

(-:, yw purple blur..

8:58 am

i didn't think it was so much that "a kennedy backing" was good, i thought what she said was true, that's all. he IS inspiring.

8:59 am

bay of pigs was a groupthink problem - whoever is president will need to be careful to avoid that, as it can happen to any group.

9:00 am

We were living in Venezuela then, and we held our breath collectively... it was all prelude to one of the darkest times in our nation's history...

9:00 am

i'm not really a kennedy fan myself.

9:02 am

godthaab, the name is still evocative of the illusory "Camelot" public realtions' coup... it still carries a great deal of clout... unfortunately.

9:03 am

I guess people only remember the good things about politicians, especially after 40 years.

9:04 am

i mean, i've been an obama fan for 4 years, ever since i heard him speak at the DNC... so, i already thought he was inspiring.

9:04 am

Somehow the negatives are part of the revisionist recollections...

9:04 am

( me too hurshy..was why I have bought his books )

9:05 am

Into the grid! We will solve absolutely nothing here in chat... LOL

9:05 am

have to say the same thing happened to me, hurshy.. when I heard him in 2004, gave me chilly bumps of a very good kind.. i knew he was very special..

9:06 am

Scarlet you are correct, but we have the freedom to express our opinions........ and may we keep our freedoms......... amen

9:06 am

yes back to the grid let's! :)

9:07 am

9:36 am

fireworks are going off.. (-:

9:36 am

I don't know why they don't just build snow days in... it's not like we've gone a winter in the last ten years without skipping at least a couple days of school. Last year the kids were in school until the summer solstice.

9:36 am

YAY Aloyisius!

9:36 am

Yippety for Aloy!! @@@

9:39 am

:op~~~~~~~~

9:40 am

Those darned cutiepie Canadian cheerleaders leave us all in the dust.... :-)

9:40 am

Hi kids

9:40 am

that would be reasonable Aloyisius -- built in like that... I guess around here they are still thinking about how things were 30 years ago. But winters have been getting progressively more stormy and snowy... *sigh* global warming may be, but it means worse weather for us.

9:40 am

definitely... i cede to their excellence

9:40 am

rofl...

9:40 am

hello all; I need re 6/21 7/32 pair (before the repair clothes word)

9:42 am

Later, Aloy... so good to see you! :-) {{Big H}}

9:42 am

a-c to go... or rather c-a to go

Can I just say that I'm deeply disappointed that the dictionary doesn't consider "choners" a word.

9:42 am

Is purple crayon the answer to fireworks?

9:42 am

Hi, supe!!

9:42 am

Hi, Cherry...

Hi Scarlet!

9:45 am

kat... don't you wish you had that power over other elements of life... .LOL

9:45 am

9:45 am

10:47 am

10:48 am

Thank you, kat... and I COLLECT ep8, too! Fie on me!

10:48 am

clue for the co8 please

10:48 am

probably the two most powerful things she said were: 1. "We need to re-write the data on ds" and that she and her generation were standing on the shoulders of those who came before

10:48 am

carlee - that's one of my favorite fleeting words ;) tx

10:48 am

oh! got the EP 8! it means the stuff that doesn't last...

10:52 am

bbnaz, yes, the perception of people with DS has to be changed. I have found so many DS's who are responsible and highly functioning and a joy to know. Unfortunately, change is slow

10:53 am

later, stid

10:54 am

soup d'onion en croute avec frommage in the PB!

10:54 am

there were over 100 people there to listen to her speak, most of them with very young babies or small children. I can only hope that they took her message and example to heart.

10:54 am

dc, my favorite soup

10:54 am

Please airmail some to Asheville, DC... I haven't made in in a year...

10:54 am

Yum yum dc, one of my favs

10:55 am

anyway, diving back into the h words now

10:56 am

bbnaz, were the people who listened to her speak have any connection to people with down syndrome. if so, they have the message, it is the outside world we have to reach. ah, what a job

10:56 am

exactly......they were all parents, family members of babies/children with down syndrome.

10:56 am

FM, I printed the penalty box and hung it on my bulletin board! priceless!

10:56 am

Can i have help with the second de6/24? please?

10:57 am

bb, I fervently hope so too

10:58 am

Oh excellent Annie, may it bring you more smiles.

10:58 am

11:03 am

Thanks Annie - I thought it was time to let babblers in on my secret life.

11:04 am

Yup I do inge

11:04 am

Spangle has got a bit jealous, so she's been restored to her usual pride of place. She's pleased at being featured in the penalty box.

11:04 am

haz, you are prettier than the floozie he is dating now

11:04 am

Thanks Haz

11:04 am

ty, haz! that should have been obvious.

11:05 am

She's not so sure about the Cat of Glory and Silverclaw being there. Constant cat patrolling required.

11:05 am

and you should ahve heard how Jacs described Annie!

11:05 am

Oh, Annie, so nice of you to say so. I'm trying to be dignified about the whole thing.

11:05 am

i have to decide where to dine w/a friend tonight.

11:05 am

Yes, fried egg or something, wasn't it?

11:06 am

Yes, I had egg all over my face and I will say it again...hmmmph!

11:06 am

not DEBBIE but KAREN Gaffney

11:06 am

sorry, too may names on my mind

11:06 am

And I thought my eyes were bad! I knew it was you straightaway, Annie.

11:06 am

LOL

11:07 am

bbnaz, correction noted...will google her later

11:07 am

I bet my hovering over you and GC gave me away

11:08 am

It was the fact that you were entering through a window that gave it away.

11:08 am

FM, who is the mystery man on the floor near Stid?

11:08 am

http://www.karengaffneyfoundation.com/

11:09 am

Atalante won't be so smug now she's been described as a mystery man.

11:09 am

FM that is amazing and has me laughing out loud

11:09 am

help with the do5/14?

11:09 am

I have to find a different means of entry...the chimney is taken...maybe I will morph through a wall

11:09 am

is Scarlet still here

11:09 am

Err that is Atalante I cut her hair by mistake

11:09 am

Thanks bb

11:10 am

I am sure she needed a trim anyway, FMitch

11:10 am

do5/14 - put your action word into old English verb ending form

11:11 am

OMG, I took a good look...it is NOT a man...it is ATA...it is FM's fault because she cut her hair

11:11 am

I agree, it's FM's fault.

11:11 am

Thanks Haz, was trying to put it in the wrong spot

11:11 am

And I thought I was going to get through a whole day without any blame, nearly made it!

11:12 am

You're welcome, phaeton.

11:12 am

Not a chance, FM, not a chance.

11:12 am

phae- de+ i am con****ed with how big this grid is

11:13 am

hello, jasmine

11:13 am

*smug*

11:14 am

**outsmugs Haz**

11:14 am

Haz you are smugging it up way too much since Ata went away.

11:14 am

You can't, you're not finished yet.

11:14 am

Making a statement Jasmine?

11:14 am

Where did Ata go, anyway?

11:14 am

I'm making a bid for the smugness crown in her absence. A sort of bloodless coup.

11:14 am

ata was about? missed her

11:15 am

Oh silly Haz, I don't need to be finished to be smug. I have youth (and George) on my side...:D

11:15 am

off to eat my potato soup, bbs

11:15 am

wind such that the doors are whistling today.

11:15 am

Apart from being imprisoned in the PB she's with friends - was travelling to see them yesterday.

11:15 am

Gone to visit her best friend

11:15 am

Ahem, Uniquity. Look very carefully. Whose side is George on?

11:16 am

Is that because of the onion soup dc?

11:16 am

Maybe he's been trying too many curried sausages.

11:16 am

er, no, meteorlogical, not biological, Fmitch :)

11:16 am

teehee

11:17 am

are there veggie curride sausages? if so, i've not found them. I know of a very good veggie kielbasa, and an italian - which i cannot eat due to allorgie - and same american breakfast sausages, thoug.h

Hello TO!

11:23 am

11:24 am

11:24 am

ty, jasmine, it will be James' lasting contribution to the culture. :)

11:25 am

ea8 - begin with the organ of hearing, finish with what a hard heart would be made of.

11:25 am

Darn. Penalty box for me!

11:25 am

Ah well, George is there....

11:25 am

Off to the PB Haz,

11:25 am

em5/14? The first one?

11:25 am

11:26 am

ty, haz! i'd not have noticed had you not mentioned. *passes a crock of soup*

11:26 am

ea8...otic and rocks

phantom: honcho

11:26 am

em5/14 - a phonetic rendering of a shortened Master of ceremonies

11:26 am

THanks for the sympathy!

11:26 am

11:26 am

BRB phone

11:27 am

Thanks Haz

11:27 am

foray * rather

11:27 am

You're welcome, phaeton.

11:27 am

praetell, why foraying out onto the roof, carlee?

11:27 am

ya'll keep talking about the en7...but the clues have eluded me as well as the word! Help?

11:28 am

en7 - finish for three, four finishes with a word that can be musical or a short letter or jotting

11:28 am

i have co8, de8, ea8, ep8, and tr8. how many others are out there and what are they?

11:28 am

we have an awning..that hubby was PLANNING on replacing..stripped of shingles ( cus whybother reshingling when replacing... ) the wood on verge of rotting..no shingles..so we have covered with plastic sheeting..well..wind... ripped off plastic sheeting..so I had to restaple it on there

11:28 am

its not like he's hoping up on roof now is he?

11:29 am

so is left to me to deal with

11:29 am

ce8/50 - one who uses the hard building material

11:29 am

what a PIA, carlee

11:29 am

thansks haz, that got me the en7 and 8.....

11:29 am

en8 is the plural for the previously clued en7

11:29 am

Thanks Haz, again :)

11:30 am

yeap... all that stuff..he does not believe in paying someone..so looks like carlee going to become awfully tool hardy

11:30 am

ty, haz, got a bunch from your clue :)

11:30 am

All this manic typing and a paltry 108 words to show for it. humpfffh!

11:30 am

Two re8 just keep resounding

11:30 am

I think you should draw the line th5 carlee wether he believes or not.

11:31 am

coming in to warm up..then heading up there again with little strips of wood to nail down for extra "toughness" against the wind

11:31 am

There are two tr8 - tr8/55 describes what World War One battlefields were criss-crossed with.

11:31 am

thats spooky. I wasnt reading the chat but camer back to ask about the en7 and there was the answer all ready for me. Many thanks!

11:32 am

tr8/45 - t, what has happened not so long ago, finish with a vowel (t plus a r6)

11:34 am

re8, not the sound one?

11:35 am

my town is in the grid today - reston

11:35 am

re8 comes in two resounding forms, present and past tense.

11:36 am

aah. didn't see the present tense, ty

11:36 am

You're welcome.

11:36 am

I am having a time with the en 7 & 8...any clues?

11:37 am

Buttonman - use the first three letters for a word that means finish, then the last bit is a normal word which can be musical, or paper, a short letter or jotting for example.

11:38 am

en7...the last and musical ****

11:38 am

Hello, Citizens of Babbletopia!

11:38 am

gratfully absobing all of Haz's excellent clues

11:39 am

Glad they're working FMitch!

11:39 am

Hello Vicuna, welcome!

11:39 am

Hail Vicuna!

11:39 am

Wussup?

11:39 am

thanks Phaeton, got them

hello, vi!

11:39 am

hi, vicuna

11:40 am

yw buttonman

11:40 am

Wahey .. Almost half way ..

11:40 am

FMitch, you hold her down and I'll search her. Someone who sits on a throne wouldn't say 'Wussup'. I suspect an interloper.....

11:40 am

oo Im going to put an owl in the PB somewhere

11:40 am

Hello torgone!

11:40 am

Big give away, you're right Haz.

11:41 am

Ha ha, Haz, she can't hold me down when she's gluing owls in her picture!

11:41 am

Heya Haz!

fm, now you KNOW i am never in the pb. except deliberately when hungry : )

hi tor!

11:41 am

Actually, Haz, I was trying to cultivate a more folksy image to cultivate the populist vote.

11:41 am

I admit, it's a stretch.

11:41 am

Good to see you again torgone - they've not sussed you out at work?

11:42 am

Oh you will want to be in this one TO, it's the new and imroved version. GeorgeC is in there already.

11:42 am

howdy, torgone

11:42 am

Well, Vicuna, there's folksy and there's plain wrong.

11:42 am

lol, Haz. Our politicians clearly need your help!

11:42 am

Still under the radar Haz .. Heyas vic, dc, TO ..

11:43 am

Don't they just, Vicuna!

11:43 am

But please forget I mentioned the word "politics." I peeked in earlier today and it was intense.

11:43 am

Hello, tor! nice to see you're finally productive at work again!

11:43 am

Yes, I was reading back in the chat log.

11:43 am

Hell tor

11:43 am

:^)

11:44 am

Sheesh, FM, no need to cuss at the man!

11:44 am

So what image are YOU going for, FM?

11:44 am

sigh, cat wants cracers, but only the bits with rosemary on them.

11:44 am

I don't need one, Im in my hidey cupboard

11:44 am

Fussy feline.

11:45 am

Is rosemary related to catnip, I wonder?

11:45 am

i don't think rosemary is a mint - it's woody

11:45 am

and winter-hardy, at least here

11:45 am

Second cousins twice removed on the sister-in-law's side.

11:45 am

several homes have roemary hedges, lovely fragrant

11:46 am

That's true, not a mint.

11:46 am

Weee dc's spelling is worse than mine today (and thats saying something)!

11:46 am

You ARE having a typo day, dc. Are you feeling well enough?

11:47 am

i've been ill for several day.

11:47 am

Aw, all cast your sympathy voes ... now!

11:47 am

Ah - I knew it!

11:47 am

though i thought the last three were correctly spelled? Prior to fmitch's true comment, that is.

11:47 am

Sympathy vote for dc.

11:47 am

oh, i see now.

11:48 am

yes, no spelling for me today :D LOL

11:48 am

1st re7, pls?

11:49 am

11:53 am

No, strangely enough, I don't think I have any owls.

hi peri

11:55 am

Hi Gwen

11:55 am

ar6/18 - start as though you were going to poison someone, but finish with a vowel.

11:55 am

OOCQ for the day: "Contras contra dancing really cries out to be made into a film short, doesn't it?"

11:55 am

peri I could put the great pic of you in there too if you change your icon. I think you might sit well at the talbe with carlee

lunch is over, see you later. don't forget, add that owl!

11:56 am

(out of context quote)

11:56 am

Or, ar6/18 - don't say yes to the use of ar4/4 in chat.

11:56 am

ciao, TO!

11:56 am

11:56 am

11:56 am

Bye TO - hope afternoon work is okay.

11:56 am

You will soon need a penalty annex at this rate, FM!

11:56 am

its not too bad gwen

11:56 am

Bye, TO!

11:57 am

( r u making more changes fm?)

11:57 am

I thought there was to be a garden version as well (for the PB)

11:57 am

LOL I know Vi. Additions carlee.

11:57 am

i vote the pb annex be a greenhouse full of tropicals and butterflies

11:58 am

got it, thanks

11:58 am

Sounds lovely, dcseain.

11:58 am

That's good arwenn.

11:58 am

But if it's tropical, how can we see Montreal shovelling snow with his fedora?

11:59 am

Not that he uses the fedora as a shovel, you understand.

no way! my hair would go into frizz overtime.

11:59 am

Owls don't have hair, silly.

11:59 am

it'll snow outside, haz, nad we can watch from our warm, windowed, comfort.

11:59 am

Ah I forgot about Monty, he is still under my desk somewhere.

well, then, my FEATHERS will frizz LOL

11:59 am

It'll need to be like the Eden project, FM. I think we will soon abandon the grid in order to brainstorm the PB.

11:59 am

lol, Haz. I think Montreal could be visible through the glass.

12:00 pm

That's true. A conservatory with a view to the snowy wastes outside?

12:00 pm

( needs chocolate... i replenished the chocolate )

12:00 pm

LOL he could be a snowman

12:00 pm

FM for some reason I am having trouble changing my icon back to a picture of me, would you use the flower for now

12:01 pm

Did I see the words "need chocolate?" Be right back...

peri, i though you *were* a flower LOL

12:01 pm

Will do peri, we can pop you in another time.

12:01 pm

Yes - a distinguished snowman with a fedora.

12:01 pm

Ah now I bet I could find a pic of that Haz.

12:01 pm

precisely, haz!

12:02 pm

( I think we need some smarties in the PB too )

12:02 pm

thanks FM

hey - "cheeto" is in the grid!

12:02 pm

Yes! Smarties rule!

12:02 pm

I could stick him in one of those bottle fridges with the glass door until I build the new new extension

12:02 pm

Already on the list carlee

ooohLOVE smarties!

ren would like cheetos

12:03 pm

I like M and M's better than Smarties

smarties, mmmmmmmmmmm

12:03 pm

( need a pic?)

12:03 pm

are you talking about smarties, the little candies?

12:03 pm

Is there room for him to peek in over George's and my shoulder?

M&Ms, mmmmmmmmm

and dark choco kisses

12:04 pm

Probably best not carlee, too much drool with melt the log.

12:04 pm

did someone say candy? I frequent the PB

12:04 pm

Yes, nb, smarties made me what I am today.

12:04 pm

need sugarless!

12:04 pm

Evening everyone :-)

12:05 pm

hi katie

*poof*

12:05 pm

hey katie

12:05 pm

i like hot tamales

12:05 pm

You know, if you build a garden extension, FM, there SHOULD be room for a hot tub.

12:05 pm

Smarties in the UK are along the lines of M&M's, while Smarties in the US are along the lines of Sweet Tarts.

12:05 pm

Hello Katie.

12:05 pm

I like dark chocolate

12:05 pm

morning everyone from finally sunny california

12:05 pm

(Just to clear up any cross-cultural confusion)

12:05 pm

What I do need (sensible please) are suggestions to fill the white strip in.

12:05 pm

Someone sent me smarties from the UK

12:05 pm

Well, don't ever associate me with something called tarts. I have my reputation to think of....

12:06 pm

thanks, vicuna, i was confused. didn't see the love of the sweet tarts. but chocolate, now........

12:06 pm

You're not a tart dear, a trollop possibly but not a tart.

12:06 pm

Do you mean words or pictures, FM, for the white strip?

12:06 pm

*perk* smarties?

12:06 pm

picture ideas I think.

12:07 pm

*WAAAAAAH - FM''s being bad to me!*

12:07 pm

well.. i have smarties up

12:07 pm

i have learned something new here today. uk smarties.

12:07 pm

mmmmmmm smarties :-)

12:07 pm

( there there haz..I am working on the smarties for u dear )

12:07 pm

Uk smarties are the way forward.

12:07 pm

( canadian smarties too )

12:07 pm

Thank you carlee, it helps to have the support.

12:07 pm

I use to like the old fashion tubes, not pleased that you don't get them the same now

12:08 pm

but they are in the hexagonal tube, Haz is a purist.

12:08 pm

*sternly* FM, you know Haz is no such thing! She is quite faithful to her extramarital lover!

haz, forward to what?

12:08 pm

86 to go time for another break

12:08 pm

Just the way forward. The path to progress.

12:08 pm

Haz -- what is the photo I see for your icon (two people) not Spangles?

12:08 pm

*shuts hidy cupboard door* in the hope of finding some words.

12:09 pm

I agree with you, Katie about the tubes.

umm, okay haz LOL

12:09 pm

I am seriously having a nervous breakdown here... Haz being accused of the T word... ? It cannot be... I shall resume my grid search... albeit sobbing madly...

12:09 pm

ours just comes in a square tube

12:09 pm

bb, that is me on the right, and George Clooney is on the left. Don't we look good together?

12:09 pm

no 7's plz?

12:09 pm

a highlight of childhood was to see which letter you got on the lid :-)

12:09 pm

Exactly, katie - Education Education Education.

12:09 pm

so long as u are not whimpering red

12:10 pm

Scarlet pull yourself together you have been far too emotional today.

12:10 pm

No... no whimpering allowed... I DO follow the rules, kattie.

12:10 pm

There IS someplace like one no7.

12:10 pm

well when i try to enlarge it, I see Spangle on your profile so I will take your word for it!

12:10 pm

ok..i've gone to bake and cook... back ina while...

12:10 pm

Whimpering beats snorting, though.

12:10 pm

Yes, yes I have, FM... it has been one of those days...

12:10 pm

Later, kattie...have a ball!

12:10 pm

snorting is my personal fav..i do all time

12:10 pm

i prefer wailing myself

12:11 pm

*pops into chatlog* it HAS been one of those days...im about ready to throttle someone here at work!!

12:11 pm

'must study FMs guide to how to make friends and influence people* ;-)

12:11 pm

bbnaz... you do it so well, and hello to all!

12:11 pm

Okay, I'll let you see the photo. No jealousy ladies.

moped phantom

12:11 pm

*Hands EvaN throttling gloves*

12:11 pm

12:11 pm

12:11 pm

12:12 pm

12:12 pm

12:12 pm

**Standing ovation to bbnaz**

12:13 pm

Hi can anyone clue me the en7/32 plz?

12:13 pm

All of the schools are closed. Some roads are closed. Some towns have banned driving. Lake Erie is flooding coastal areas.

12:13 pm

12:13 pm

Vi, nice clue thnx

12:13 pm

And people are stlll visiting the doctors' offices, Scrabs?

12:13 pm

en7/32 - place in a book where the citations are

12:13 pm

en7- a no4 at the end of a book

12:13 pm

Scrab, PA near flight 93

12:13 pm

thanks vi

12:13 pm

Ooooh...Scrabbler...I'm in Maryland. Is that storm headed my way?!

12:14 pm

woot -- no more h words

12:14 pm

Yes, it is much quieter here, but people are still driving around.

12:14 pm

is the other no7 related to the first?

12:14 pm

Gdine -- welcome, fellow Marylander!

12:14 pm

Thank you so much - that one had me beat!

12:14 pm

Shanksville, PA----candycane

12:14 pm

Shanksville, PA----candycane

12:14 pm

12:15 pm

Hi Eva....

12:15 pm

Friedens actually, bout 3 miles from shanksville

12:15 pm

12:15 pm

I can't really claim to be a Marylander...just arrived in August.

12:15 pm

I like it here

12:15 pm

12:16 pm

I used to live in Pittsburgh y'all get alot of bad weather up there

12:16 pm

DH is active duty Navy

12:16 pm

Thanks

12:16 pm

I better leave before I get busted. It is hard to not start entering words.I will return later, from home, IF electricity is restored.

12:16 pm

at Ft. Meade? i thought that was an army base?

12:16 pm

ciao, scrabbler!

12:16 pm

no7 - both are structured the same, differing only in one vowel in the second part of the word

12:16 pm

We're right on the allegheny ridge,it gets a little wooly sometimes

belated thanks vicuna

12:17 pm

good luck scrabbler

12:17 pm

It is an army base. He works in DC, but there are lots of Navy folks as well as Air Force.

12:17 pm

Thanks, Haz.

12:17 pm

see ya later scrabs

12:17 pm

hi guys..taking a Babble break!

12:17 pm

gotcha -- when i was little, i grew up very close to andrews, so we were used to you military brats. ;)

12:17 pm

keep safe Srab :-)

12:18 pm

come to think of it, ive always lived within 30 minutes of a military base -- even away at college, i was near Pax River Naval Air Station!

12:18 pm

did I smell another Marylander? so many of us now

12:18 pm

DH is the military brat...FIL was career Army. I grew up on a farm in TX

12:18 pm

krista -- we get around. ;)

12:18 pm

{{{{applause}}}} for our military families

12:18 pm

You're welcome, Vicuna.

12:19 pm

smell in the figurative sense, tho Nut would disagree with me on the figurative part

12:19 pm

well krista, i learned of this game from a friend in MD, so that's not surprising

12:19 pm

Ty! It's nice to have friends! There are ups and downs to being military...just like with anything.

12:19 pm

and krista, the gaming i told you about, netx on is 9 Feb

12:19 pm

(i have no spellin today)

12:19 pm

you're an honorary one of us, Seain..that's a Sat, right? I may be able to make it!

12:19 pm

DC -- thats my bday! w00t!

12:20 pm

mine's the 8th :)

12:20 pm

yes, always on a sat, krista

12:20 pm

So where are you, gdine? Happy bday, you Aquarians!

12:20 pm

high-five for aquaruises!! (or would we be aquarii?)

12:21 pm

My BF is on the 8th too

12:21 pm

aquarii, IMO

12:21 pm

I live at Fort Meade

12:21 pm

either way, this is the dawning of the age of aquarius!

12:21 pm

We're surrounded!

12:21 pm

my siser is the 5th, aunt on the 12th.

12:21 pm

More like the age of Aquarium, with all the fish around here.

12:21 pm

Well, welcome,gdine. I'm in Hagerstown.

12:22 pm

i have several friends all around....5th, 6th, 8th, 13th, 14th...

12:22 pm

Fort Meade is huge...but the area is fairly rural.

12:22 pm

i'm n Reston, VA, gdine, but much of my social life is in MD.

12:22 pm

...and im in Bethesda!

12:22 pm

Wow...we are all nearby

12:22 pm

much of PG is rural ish, what with Ft Meade and BARC

12:22 pm

I mentioned my DD to you I think...she arrives in about 2 weeks, so I'll be visiting VA

12:23 pm

Ft Meade isnt PG...i think its AA, but it might be HoCo

12:23 pm

I've got five in a row..5,6,7,8..need to buy cards..one goes to England - I always forget my husband's gmother...funny how he never gets any grief for forgetting his Nan's bday, but I, who met her once, get the flack..but I digress

12:23 pm

don't forget ground hog day;Punxsutawney Phil

12:23 pm

krista -- its because we are females, and thus, supposed to remember these things...

12:24 pm

ah, N of Crofton, my bad.

12:24 pm

I wouldn't mind but I am really really rubbish about remembering things like that!!

12:24 pm

yes. Andrews is PG though. :)

12:24 pm

LOL krista

12:24 pm

Exactly. Let's just say I got criticized once, but it didn't happen again (don't I sound fierce! lol)

12:24 pm

yes, grew up gaing to Andrews for the annual secret service picnic.

12:25 pm

There has to be a punchline to that one, Seain...

12:25 pm

we always went for the air show every year for school

12:25 pm

spent a lot of time at Ft Belvoir when young, too, due to a neighbor who worked there.

12:25 pm

saw the air show twice.

12:25 pm

...they wore dark glasses even if it rained? nah...need something funnier

12:25 pm

... But they never told us when or where it was?

12:26 pm

LOL! That's good!

12:26 pm

LOL

12:27 pm

They could give you their potato salad recipe...but then they'd have to kill you...

12:27 pm

lots of ye6day's words in today's grid.

12:27 pm

lol

12:27 pm

Back again - boys could not connect to relevant poker site and rushed off to a friend who could connect - so lucky me can babble in peace

12:27 pm

they were catered, the picnics

12:27 pm

I noticed that too, Seain..always throws me (doesn't take much,tho)

12:27 pm

wb, ursh!

12:28 pm

i bet no one ever stole your seat there!

12:28 pm

Hi Ursh..lol, Eva...we're ready to go on the road

12:30 pm

lots of phatoms today, too!

12:31 pm

dc, did you say you were looking for info re the rocks?

12:31 pm

purchasing, yes, fmitch

12:32 pm

if i stand on my head, can the "m" become a "w"?

12:32 pm

not sure if th4're available in the states yet.

12:32 pm

Got a phone call...Fort Meade is AA....

12:32 pm

Off to do some quilt piecing...don't see any more words right now

12:33 pm

No, bb...then it would be a 500 word grid!

12:33 pm

ciao, gdine!

12:33 pm

Nice to meet you, gdine. Hope to chat again.

12:33 pm

there are contact details on the site tel & email. possible starting point?

12:33 pm

dagnabbit

12:33 pm

good point, will do

sterno!!

12:34 pm

not a word, but a brand name, gwen

12:34 pm

krista, you seem to be too nice to be "evil"

12:34 pm

Time for a break, pootles off to see whats in the cupboards....

12:35 pm

hasta, FMitch

12:35 pm

help with the no7/36...have the one about the dwelling

12:35 pm

It's all part of the master plan, nb...But thanks. :)

12:35 pm

Bye FM!

hey, i know it's abrand name, but it is sliding into generic, like aspirin did once

12:36 pm

Are you having an existential crisis, nb? I like your icon! Black is my favorite absence of color.

12:36 pm

i agree, gwen, along with xerox, and probably google.

12:36 pm

woot only 94 left to find

12:37 pm

other no -change second consonant to second consonant

12:37 pm

black is supersaturation of color, not abscence.

12:37 pm

grant, how do i change second to second?

12:37 pm

I stand corrected. Another one of those lies taught in school.

google is already in some dictionaries, verb and so forth

12:38 pm

listserve is another one

12:38 pm

a*iou is 2nd cond

but i will never ever use kleenex to mean tissue! LOL

12:38 pm

grant that's a vowel

12:38 pm

grant, you mean 2nd vowel?

12:39 pm

kleenex is the generic term herebouts.

12:39 pm

I think resend should be a word, too, given the proliferation of email. But the re words are a can of worms, aren't they.

12:39 pm

krista- constantly

12:39 pm

my whole life is an existential dilemma

12:39 pm

oops, sorry, yes

12:39 pm

yes, they are krista, but none were really wierd.

and a hoover? another unwise brand-name-gone-generic

12:39 pm

That's funny, Gwen..I won't use that either! But I'll say Band-Aid.

12:40 pm

true, gwen.

12:40 pm

Grant, can you reclue that?

12:40 pm

band-aid, yes.

12:40 pm

Sorry to hear that, nb. ;)

adhesive bandage, you mean LOL

i think we should genericize wal-mart to mean cheap plastic crap made overseas by slave labor

12:41 pm

its not so bad. one gets used to it, lol

12:41 pm

Uh...have to get back to cleaning...friend in from Seattle..having him for dinner and need to find the table!!

12:41 pm

NM, found it

12:41 pm

LOL, yeah, when, that's a good one.

12:42 pm

gwen, not when. sigh.

12:42 pm

I love it, Gwen!

12:42 pm

njoy, krista!

12:42 pm

two columns greyed out...........

12:42 pm

is hould bathe and dress soon, metting a friend for dinner somewhere; where, don't know yet.

12:42 pm

ciao, gwen

12:44 pm

Hi, all

12:44 pm

12:46 pm

it's that kind of grid, fishbulb, i was half way, and only had greyed Y and T

12:46 pm

i've 76 left, only greyed y, t, s, r, p

1:00 pm

carnivale?

1:00 pm

1:00 pm

I cannot believe that CBS is going to carry the Dexter series... must be quite tamed down for standard television...

1:01 pm

Dexter series?

1:01 pm

it's an other HBO series, peri, set in the dustbowl, around a carnival and a radio evangelist

1:01 pm

tyvm

1:01 pm

( u must be like me peri...I don't wacth much tv )

1:01 pm

i've not seen dexter, heard it's good.

1:01 pm

Dexter is a cop. He is also a serial murderer...

1:02 pm

never heard of either

1:02 pm

my goodness

1:02 pm

It is supposed to be a superb bit of writing...

1:02 pm

I watch Gray's Anatomy, Desparate Housewives, sometimes House, Oprah

1:02 pm

clue for the ce 6 8 & 9 please

1:02 pm

I read a lot, play babble and other word games

1:02 pm

It really is a breakthrough in broadcasting...

1:03 pm

we do bones... and house..and that about it...

1:03 pm

Dexter is a quirky, very good.

1:03 pm

i have no TV, that is we don't get off-the-air here, and we don't have cable.

1:03 pm

I am a loyal Law & Order fan... for a zillion years..

1:03 pm

I am not much of a TV watcher either...watch a lot of CNN, Fox, that kind of stuff

1:03 pm

ce6 what sidewalks are made of, the 8 and 9 build on that

1:03 pm

house is fun

1:03 pm

loved Dexter but it was really frightening, even the opening credits were scary :-)

1:03 pm

read... do jigsaws with my daughter..travel hockey..girl guides... who has time

1:03 pm

I think it is just amazingly good...

1:03 pm

my fav is The Riches at the moment

1:04 pm

I dont have HBO but when I did I loved Curb Your Enthusiam and The Sopranos

1:04 pm

the riches?

1:04 pm

omg we all like the same programmes. House, Bones, Dexter are ones that get taped in my house. Also love without trace and numbers

1:04 pm

cnn on or bbc on here al ltime

1:05 pm

The Riches - about a family of Travellers who 'adopt' the identity of a rich couple. Eddie izzard

1:05 pm

Annie... the Sopranos was excellent!

1:05 pm

Thanks peri, honestly I am a surveyor and talk about it alot i.e. quanities in a building quality of finish etc!!

1:05 pm

What a fabulous cast!

1:05 pm

I love Eddie Izzard.. he is quite the chameleon, isn't he?

1:05 pm

oh! i love eddie izzard!

1:05 pm

yw katie

1:06 pm

I like when he does the whole transvestite thing ;)

1:06 pm

may have to borrow the Soprano series after Six Feet Under

1:06 pm

Everyone in the Sopranos had nailed their respective parts, Annie... sooooooo good.

1:06 pm

ooohhh, loved the The Riches--huge Eddie Izzard fan--can't wait for the next season to start!

1:06 pm

any other recommenations of TV series to get from the library

1:06 pm

What channel is the Riches on?

1:06 pm

arwennn, you mean "executive" transvestite?! LOL

1:07 pm

annie, it WAS on HBO

1:07 pm

Strongly recommend House, very well writen and funny with it

1:07 pm

peri, the first two years of the Sopranos is well worth the watch

1:07 pm

I also enjoy "Criminal Minds"... I happen to really enjoy abnormal psychology...

1:07 pm

maybe Curb your Enthusiasm

1:07 pm

no offense intended, but what is it that straight people get from Eddie Izzard? I find him okay, sometimes very funny, but not all that, and that's true for most gay people i know, too.

1:07 pm

you know he's not gay, right?

1:07 pm

yes, une

1:07 pm

Seriously, dc... I had no idea that he is gay... I thought that his flamboyance was part of his schtick...

1:07 pm

( no idea who eddie izzard is sorry dc )

1:08 pm

don't know eddie izzard either

1:08 pm

Okay, Une... glad that's cleared up...

1:08 pm

he's not gay - he's a transvestite

1:08 pm

I might get HBO again...I am missing series that I know I would like....I was trying to pare down my cost of living...hah!

1:08 pm

ok..back to kitchen..making scallopped potatoes and getting my chicken ready

1:08 pm

he's very very straight (apart from the make up and girlie clothes lol)

1:09 pm

then volcano cake...bbl

1:09 pm

Hi Une, was beginning to think it was only on in Aust. DC - just really good acting in this show, with just the right amount of twisty humor, not bad looking either

1:09 pm

I don

1:09 pm

he's not gay, scarlet, but all the people i know who are into him are straight; most gays i know, myself included, don't find him all that worthwhile on a regular basis.

1:09 pm

I do not have cable

tv is poison

1:09 pm

hm,okay, lynxxx, i can grant you that.

1:09 pm

i've watched all his concert dvd's--they're all available from Netflix--Dress to Kill is my all-time favorite

1:10 pm

i have satelite and don't do sports, movies or series tv

1:10 pm

dress to kill one of the few i fonud entertaning.

1:10 pm

ah, well, not meant to grok, i'm not :)

1:10 pm

1:10 pm

Une, I am going to get Dress to Kill....I never heard of this guy so now I will find out

1:11 pm

1:18 pm

I love gold lame piping, of course, thank you for thinking of that

1:18 pm

{{dc]] Such a spiritual person...

1:18 pm

Wonderful, Annie... I await the "Great Reveal" with much anticipation...

1:19 pm

1:19 pm

annie, did you get my sadie-inspired musical reference?

1:19 pm

doable, shall i ask about pricing, and what colors do you profer, and cross or crucifix?

1:20 pm

annie, don't be so discreet, one every two beads would be much more appropriate

1:20 pm

prefer, not profer (i no spelle todady)

1:20 pm

dc, no, I am afraid that went over my habit re: sadie-inspired...please explain

1:20 pm

what is the difference between a cross and a crucifix?

1:20 pm

thatz hokaay, deecee... we is smartz in heeer

1:20 pm

1:26 pm

1:26 pm

Scarlet, Wouldn't it be wonderful to do whatever you want without hurting anyone? No time restraints, no money restraints.....

1:27 pm

It disappeared rather quickly, kattie... and your volcano cake sounds fabulous... may I please have the recipe? I have tried to make the smaller ones, and it is not what I wanted...

1:27 pm

i have been examining my wardrobe, nothing to quite match ninja suits with sequins & habits with beads . best i can come up with is frayed bathrobe with discarded parrot seeds sprinkled liberally throughout

1:27 pm

Ahhhhh, Annie... let us wax philosophical on the joys of goodness and freedom for the good of all man/womankind...

1:27 pm

Excellent, beth... I love it!

ph 5/14 ---bell's invention

1:32 pm

I love that word, dc... always makes me smile...

1:33 pm

I wouldn't dream of borrowing such a creation, beth... I might spill coffee on it...

1:34 pm

scar, coffee spills would add a panache to the ensemble

1:34 pm

not to worry scarlet, it would blend in with the old parrot poop stains from before potty training.

1:34 pm

How many words total today, anyone?

1:34 pm

1:55 pm

That's what I've done for a long time. It's a little more time consuming now that I own my own business though.

1:55 pm

babrab, i changed jobs, and new job has higher withholding; due to my unemployed months, i earned a chunch less than i will this year, for which the withholding level is appropriate.

1:55 pm

ep8 ep + the turned up bit on the bottom of a skirt + a period of time

5:03 pm

aha..thanks...no, I was missing all three but have it all now!

5:03 pm

no jbv, no-ones clues are better, we all clue differently and different people get different clues as we are not all the same, so good clue to you too

5:04 pm

can i get a clue for the je 6?

5:05 pm

je- another name for a jumper or a place in the US

5:06 pm

thanks, lillian - you said it well

5:06 pm

speak for yourself, my clues are the best

5:06 pm

well I live in that je place in the US so I got that one!

5:06 pm

thx, lili

5:07 pm

so you say hursh!!! hi!

5:07 pm

yw jbv and eieios!

5:08 pm

god lill i know that was clued before

5:08 pm

is it a state jbv, i couldn't remember, sorry to say, i'm not good on american history!

5:08 pm

They are the best ..

5:08 pm

doh!! geography even!!

5:09 pm

your clues are great hursh but the minute I became a parent (and thus sleep deprived) they all starting going over my head (a reflection of my mental state and not yours) :)

5:09 pm

Yes a state next to New York - one of the original 13 colonies!!

5:09 pm

i haven't seen the clue before jo, or do you mean you couldn't get it before?

5:10 pm

no, I meant that I got your clue for the je - jumper or place in US because "jumper" is not a word we use here in the same way but the place - well that was easy!

5:10 pm

lol daft i am

5:10 pm

ty jbv, i thought it was and started to type it and then thought i'm not sure so put place instead

5:11 pm

no, not you jbv, sorry, i was talking to jo then

5:12 pm

we call it jumper or the state here jbv

5:12 pm

oh, my name is Joanne too - didn't even realize you wouldn't know that!

5:12 pm

good name huh

5:12 pm

oh, really, sorry jbv, i just know you as that sorry

5:13 pm

always jo growing up ..even now

5:13 pm

yes and spelled the same way! a little story for those who are bored or need a diversion -

5:13 pm

thank you tor :)

5:13 pm

i had a bit of a glitch there. hi all

5:14 pm

I went to my doctor yesterday and his nurse was wearing the same EXACT ring I inherited from my father - she got hers from her father, etc. etc., too many details to go on, but at the end I found out her name was Joanne too!

5:14 pm

no hyphen or a or h somewhere in there

5:14 pm

wow

5:14 pm

i have a terrible memory, but if i remember, i'll call you jo asweel if alright, apart from when other jo is on as otherwise confusing!

5:14 pm

lol k lill

5:15 pm

oohh, spooky jbv!!

5:15 pm

i am Irked, by the way. i am in what they sometimes call a State of High Dudgeon.

5:15 pm

no, let's stay with JBV as that's my Babble name, thanks

5:15 pm

~throws in the towel~ i need a clue please for either of the NO 7/36 words please

5:15 pm

what state are you in then hursh??

5:15 pm

good friends call me jo but i get the complication of it all

5:15 pm

i just said... High Dudgeon

5:16 pm

i get called allsorts!!!....lol

5:16 pm

rude words normally!!

5:16 pm

lol lill me tooo..i love it

5:16 pm

ok jbv

5:16 pm

That's an upgrade from your usual medium dudgeon ..

5:16 pm

indeed it is

5:17 pm

yes, lilliann, very spooky - it turns out my father and her father bought the rings around the same time (in the 194o's!!!) in Brooklyn in the same neighborhood - she always thought it was custom made but mine and hers matched exactly - gold, diamonds and garnet

5:17 pm

now, now jo....calm down...remember where you are!!!...lol

5:17 pm

mel...I am missing both of the no7 words as well

5:18 pm

no 7 = no + hump letter + place you live

5:18 pm

that is weird jbv

5:18 pm

i don't have the other yet.

5:18 pm

thanks eieios

5:18 pm

how about the no 6/24?

5:18 pm

kind of ne** actually JBV as long as you don't mind a duplicate running around

5:19 pm

I've been telling that story all day - it was the talk of the doctor's office too

5:19 pm

ty eieios

5:19 pm

Dare I ask ..What are you irate over, Ms. hurshy?

5:19 pm

one who is not an enlisted officer, eieios

5:19 pm

thank you

5:20 pm

so, obviously there were more made then jbv than stated.was the design made by your dad?

5:20 pm

thx, hursh

5:20 pm

trying to get a few more before making the spaghetti

5:21 pm

just finished spagetti lol

5:21 pm

my boss. he will give me a proposal to proofread. but then i have to give it to him again so he sees that i haven't changed anything he doesn't agree with. and then he has to give it back to me so i can put the packet together and send it out. and it always has to go out TODAY and he always waits until the last minute to give it back to me, it's getting worse and worse, first it was 4:45, then 4:50, today 5:00, and if i don't get it all set by 5:30 then i'd miss the fedex guy...

5:22 pm

hah i know exactly where u come from hursh

5:22 pm

well, unfortunately there is no one left who can clear up the mystery - the nurse Joanne said she would go try to get some details from her mom - but we're talking about more than 60 years ago!

5:22 pm

my grandad designed somre jewellery for me, my cousin, nan, and he took it to a jeweller and he said the design was lovely, so could he make one for his wife and then he would burn the design, which he did, but mine got stolen from our house when i was younger and so my nan gave me hers, i was so upset for ages!!

5:22 pm

and of course he had not bothered to send me the cover letter in advance so i had to proof that and get rid of his typos, which, you know, takes time

5:22 pm

Don't you just love bosses?

5:23 pm

mine just sits behind a desk and get me to phone all the customers looking for answer and asks me to give them an answer..but that tells me he don't have em and i do lmao

5:23 pm

that's very sad, lillian, I treasure this ring and a ton of other family things that mean so much

5:23 pm

doesn't he know you have babbbling to do hursh?

5:23 pm

if they want it to go out today, and they know the fedex guy comes at a certain time, why don't they connect these two facts?

5:23 pm

they don't care JUST DO IT

5:24 pm

it's not so much that kristin as the fact that it is antithetical to his own purposes. if it were not to make it out today, he'd be unhappy.

5:24 pm

It's amazing how some people get into management positions without the slightest concept of YOUR time ..

5:25 pm

so laying aside any element of consideration for me, he should still get it to me in a timely fashion to suit his own aims.

5:25 pm

YOUR TIME IS FREE TIME FOR THEM!! HENCE SHIAT ROLLS DOWN HILL

5:25 pm

sorry to hear that hursh, but 1. its a man, and 2, tell him to p*** *** and if i can't tell you inbetween the times you work and go home then he should stop and do it!

5:25 pm

I agree with you hurshy, that does seem very unreasonable. He might finally come to his senses some day when you really can't get it out in time.

5:26 pm

hursh will be the reason one way or another

5:26 pm

i made it by... maybe two minutes... it was a close one.

5:26 pm

can anyone help w/ the first tr8? I feel as if I have tried every combo.

5:28 pm

tr- 1st 3 letters of big leafy thing with trunk and then a small coin in the US and vowel

5:29 pm

tr8+"The 14th century, especially with reference to Italian art and literature."

5:29 pm

hmm, not only is tr4ho4 not in the dictionary, neither is tr4house

5:29 pm

aha...thanks to you both!

heya lady...I'm still here trying to get my last 29

Hurshy they do that i get like that too

5:45 pm

my minds not on this tonight, will tell you about one of the things later jo and the other is a guy i grew up with and played drs and nurses with is critical in hosptal as he had lesions on his back which have been operated on and the surgeons don't know what is going to happen and he has been moved to a different hospital and now has 5 neuro surgeons

I lt the docs play the grid with me at work when it is'nt busy...clearly no one plays the grid when it is.

5:45 pm

hursh...we play together sometimes when I am stubborn and don't have the time/steam to finish BUT, he must be invited...no entering in words as you go by :)

5:45 pm

k lill

cheeto

Lili i will put him in my pray book ok

5:46 pm

he only does grid when i ask, i know what you mean though, if anyone touches my grid i get really confused because i know exactly what words i have done and how to build off them

not a phantom..but not really a word either. and terrible for the hips.

5:46 pm

wow lill sad

hi all

5:46 pm

hi ang!!

5:46 pm

if he inputs a word and i dont know about it i get you know what

5:46 pm

herin, i thought you were a wiccan...

hi jo

5:47 pm

my mam and his are best friends after 30 odd years

Hurshy i am but i have my thing. When someone is sick or departed i light a guiding candle

5:47 pm

hi ang, long time no see, hope you are well

5:48 pm

lill funny as kids we don't realize when we get older what we have to not want to look forward to but ...then we find out

5:48 pm

tyvm herin. me too

5:48 pm

i see.

5:48 pm

well, back to quilting, see you later

5:48 pm

hello everyone

5:48 pm

hi yps and bye crpw

5:49 pm

bye crp, and take care!

5:49 pm

hi ypsi

Hurshy we all have our things that we do and i just say 'ill put you in my pray book 'as it is an easy explaination.

5:50 pm

yeah, i got it now, just, when you first said it, it confused me.

lill, i will keep your friend in my prayers, i hope he gets better soon

Hurshy we all have our own thing. Hurshy how are you anyhoot

5:51 pm

bye crpw, hola ypsi

5:51 pm

ty ang, so do i.i've got to email his mam later and don't know what to say!

it's always hard to find the right words to say

5:53 pm

lill you will find something to say

5:54 pm

and she will know it's truly from the heart and that's what counts!!

5:54 pm

the word "pray" just threw me off because usually you pray TO someone and wicca is about nature, no deity, so i was puzzled

5:55 pm

i haven't seen him for years but know what he's upto through my mam and his, and he's always been so healthy and i think its difficult as even the drs don't know, my mam said it is a type of cancer, but no-one knows what is wrong exactly yet or the outcome and that is hard to take

5:55 pm

i'm fine :)

oh that's really tough

5:59 pm

ooh now i'm in Higher Dudgeon

Higher Dundgen?

Lili that is tough will put out the positive vibes and stuff. Hope you are well

6:01 pm

can anyone clue the he 5/14 please -- hi all

6:02 pm

i don't neccessarily believe there is a god hursh, but i believe there is a higher power, and i also think you can pray to anything you believe in whether it be a plant, teddy or god

6:02 pm

its upto the individual!

6:03 pm

ty herin

6:04 pm

he rhymes with a wooden thing that goes around your property ak and hi, long time no see

hi ak

6:04 pm

ty lil, i have been around just usually very late due to busy life and work!!

6:05 pm

hi angelina

6:05 pm

wooohooo done, ~faints~

6:06 pm

fanning meliae, tossing water on face.. you are done celebrate

My friend says the Jewish Zombie God or the Flying Spaghetti Monster what ever makes you feel good

vn meliae

and congrats

6:07 pm

congrats mel

6:07 pm

those last 60 or so words were killers

6:07 pm

i love spaghetti

6:07 pm

thank you

6:07 pm

but if you're looking for results, generally you have someone specific in mind...

6:07 pm

i am finding the first 200 to be annoying

6:07 pm

anyway i'm in higher dudgeon bc i called sprint to ask a question and they are too busy to take my call and they don't even keep me on hold they just drop me!!

6:11 pm

Hello all--electricity has returned and I can Babble!

6:12 pm

Haha, AK!

hi scrabs

6:13 pm

yay for electricity!

6:13 pm

A snowstorm with winds to 60 mph hit during the night--60K homes without power, all schools closed, etc. My sister + nephew will spend the night here as they still have no power.

Lets make fun of the Wiccan shall we. Shows you what you know about deity's and stuff. At least our faith didn't burn witches at the stake. Man I'm as so sick of this chat giving me shit for saying what my faith is. You know instead of giving me crap maybe you should do your research and have an open mind

Yah Scrabbler

6:14 pm

herin, i think you completely misinterpreted what i was saying

No not really.

6:15 pm

i was not trying to mock you at all

Seems that way

hello scrabbler, glad yu have power again.

6:16 pm

i simply wanted to clarify, because the concept of prayer as asking for something would seem logically to involve asking someone. ie if your toilet is broken you don't stand in the street and say, help, my toilet is broken, you call a plumber.

6:17 pm

and since my understanding of wicca was that it involved the worship of nature, there did not seem to me to be someone you'd be asking. so, i wanted to know if there was someone you were asking, or if it was not prayer per se, but, as you say, lighting a candle or some other simple ritual.

6:17 pm

Go to www.wgrz.com to find photos of damage from trees falling on houses and cars. And the surge in Lake Erie caused Cleveland (west end) to lose 5 ft of water height and Buffalo (east end) to get 12 ft surges.

YEs it is Hurshy but we all have something that we talk to

Thats pretty horrible Scrabs. Its cold here, but nothing destructive yet....

6:18 pm

ne

6:18 pm

st

6:18 pm

hi scrabs! hi all!

6:19 pm

Hi Owl!

hi to...

6:19 pm

How is your hip, Owl?

spit it put, scrabs - what are you trying to sayLOL

6:20 pm

Oops, I didn't see that---I guess I was typing too fast for the Lickety Add box.

hahahahha it is good, scrabs ty for asking!

Scrabler at least you are in one peice

Hurshy my thing

hi red hi herein

6:22 pm

6:25 pm

One wk ago that happened to us. The cross-country skiing was great over the weekend.

Hurshy its hard to explain

6:25 pm

and the drive way shoveling !! ugh

6:26 pm

I have been on this grid, on and off, throughout the day, and I have only just reached the halfway mark. 139 words; 139 left. I am resigned to the fact that I will not finish tonight - it's already after midnight.

6:26 pm

I pay a guy to plow my driveway.

6:26 pm

no snow here but it was just 4 degrees the other morning, then 55 yesterday but 70 mph winds and torrential rain last night and back down to ice and 19 this morning... weird weather

who's up for lost tonight?

6:26 pm

Poor ExWren! I just started and haven't hit the wall yet.

6:26 pm

4 degrees? OMG i hate the cold

6:27 pm

well, i hope you understand that i was not mocking by any means, i was trying to, as you say, do research. if you can't explain it, that's that, but i was asking to clarify, not to mock.

6:27 pm

moving on to the n's but I see I'm missing one j word - clue for the je 4/9 before the state I live in, please

6:27 pm

19F now.

it's just if you lie under certain circumstances, it's worse. for instance if you were to lie to your wife about an affair, not a crime. but if you lie to the police in a murder investigation, obstruction of justice. and lying under oath is one o' them big no-nos
