Hi again all! Can't stay away!

2:31 am

only a few weird ones in this grid...less than the last few

2:31 am

babble is not competitive... you win when you have found more words than you thought you would... or more than last grid of this size... or when you found a word you have never seen before... etc

2:32 am

3:03 am

stick some cotton wool in his ears or you should use a headphone set so only you can hear him a lovely mona lisa i can hear right now

3:08 am

Although I did find that be8 that sprite just clued

3:08 am

You were it on a necklace and its a man

3:14 am

3:38 am

i think she has help Pink .... dont you Sprite

3:39 am

for the size of this monster, it was a little disappointing.

3:39 am

what kind of help, lore?

3:39 am

thats one of the reasons i usually start with all the 4 letter words

3:39 am

not very puzzling just a lot of fingers working huh

3:42 am

no exciting finds and no surprises anyway. But what kind of help do you mean, lore? All the help I used was the chat and the clues there.

3:43 am

and for the last 4 words I checked lickety

3:43 am

that's amazing sprite - you're must be a pretty smart cookie

3:44 am

lol... and have been playing this game for a long time, flosey. Practice pays off.

3:45 am

3:50 am

rofl, I think I like bug hugs even better. Wonderful play on words.

3:51 am

now that i have finished the 4s you can guarantee i have missed some add ons

3:51 am

"bug hugs" is cute!!

3:51 am

and I am working on a translation, lore... will take lots of time, but it WILL get there in the end.

3:51 am

so did I Sprite think it was meant to be hey our babblers language lol

3:52 am

I lub you lore, and bug hugs to you too, LOL

3:52 am

yep told him that Sprite and yes you will get there

3:52 am

hey i like this Babble language think we might of started something Sprite

3:53 am

I am making up words and they are registering-I check the dictnry and they are not listed-what is going on. I am new

3:53 am

hi hodag

3:53 am

hi Apollos... the dictionary that is linked to this site is not at all complete. You might want to check the words at infoplease.com or a site like that. And welcome to the madness!

3:54 am

now I am falling asleep, must go, great chatting, will have to finish up in the morning

3:54 am

lore, do you remember the deaded shopping? Or was that before your time?

3:54 am

phone call bbs i hope (insurance company) painful

3:54 am

*hugs* flosey, hope you sleep well now

3:54 am

thanks- a little strange but ok I guess?

3:54 am

hiya lore!

3:55 am

yeah, very ok. And addictive, lol. I hope you like it, Apollos. You picked a monster day to start here... this grid is about twice the size of an average day.

3:55 am

sleep well flosey :-)

3:55 am

Lol, its my first day too. Bleh. But, its been fun so far.

3:56 am

yay Hip :)

3:56 am

welcome Hip...:-)

3:57 am

now I should go and get some laundry folded. When I ever get rich, I want closets so big that I can put the clothes in there unfolded :D

3:57 am

Thanks =]

3:58 am

this is hard

3:59 am

I know! I only have 46 words. Lame. :[ Lol

3:59 am

hi catep, yes it can be, it is not as easy as some of us make it seem... but some of us have played for years and years.

3:59 am

casen

3:59 am

forget that

3:59 am

your right cat!

4:00 am

I really want to stress that each word you find is great. I didn't find half of the words on my first grid. This is about fun and not about finding all words or such. Don't feel bad if it is hard for you, because that is normal. It can be a hard game.

4:01 am

i have 158 words

4:01 am

that is terrific, catep

4:01 am

what does the 19 hrs left thing mean?

4:01 am

ty sprite... just got 2 more lol

4:01 am

this grid changes once every 24 hours, Hip

4:02 am

maybe the wine is making it harder

4:02 am

I have 5 but, I love to chat....:-)

4:02 am

I keep seeing "Parsnips"---which is weird because I had some for dinner! hehehehee

4:02 am

Mmm, music and word games= good times.

4:02 am

ok, have to tear myself away from this nice crowd. Or the housework will never get done. *hugs* to all who want them, and *waves* to all.

4:03 am

see ya sprite,have a good day!

4:04 am

you too! *poof*

4:04 am

mint

4:04 am

hi, all. monster grid today. I am feeling much less blue today. got some good rest last night, and spoke with my daughter before I went to bed. She is handling things pretty well so far, all things considered.

4:05 am

hi Angel-what happend?

4:09 am

my daughter called saturday, asking if we could babysit until Sunday. She is ill with flu and needed some rest...so we said yes to babysitting both of the children, 1 year and 3 years old. Then, she said her husband was using methamphetamine again, and she had to ask him to leave until he gets clean. She doesn't want him around herself or the children when he is using. He came home y'day, and she had to call the police. He did leave, and she picked up the kids yesterday afternoon. Dylan, age 3, thinks his dad hates him.

OH ANgel im so sad for you. Dylan needs to know that he is loved and that daddy does love him but he has a grown up problem that needs to be fixed. HUGS so many hugs my dear

4:12 am

I am so sorry Angel,your daughter did the right thing by making him leave! I feel bad for the little ones they don't understand what is going onLOL.

4:13 am

Not sure of your religious standing- but my prayers go out to your family. Best of luck on his recovery and comforting the children who dont know any better.

4:13 am

She said her husband talked to Dylan last night and told him he does not hate him, and that he loves Dylan very much...then he proceeded to grill Dylan about who was in the house.

4:13 am

rad

4:13 am

e

4:13 am

apologies to all

4:13 am

hiya mim

4:13 am

angel kisses 2 u

4:13 am

I am a devout believer in the power of prayer.

4:14 am

:] Bless you

That is not love Angel that is like saying i love you heres a pony

4:14 am

he really needs to be booted out!!!!!!

4:14 am

so when we came home yesterday after getting the kids back to mom, I broke down. cried most of the afternoon. Everywhere I looked, I could see those babies in this house.

Angel is there any way the police can put him in rehab or the courts r someone

4:18 am

yes. he's on probation, and I am considering calling his probation officer, as is my daughter.

4:18 am

I feel sad for your daughter! If she loves him it is hard to leave but,on the other hand the kids should come first..HUGS

Do ANgel he needs help not Jail

DR 7 clue please

4:21 am

time to go bye 8-)

4:21 am

I know. but sometimes to help people, you have to get them of the streets first.

Does anyone have a clue for the DR please

Angel he can't go into rehab can he?

4:22 am

my daughter is amazing. I'm not saying she is perfect, but she has come a very long way. she has history of drug use as well, and was incarcerated when Dylan was born....but she is clean now, is employed, and is doing a great job of parenting.

4:23 am

he could, but I don't know if he would consent, unless he is arrested.

That is great Angel. Good on her. She doesn't need his sht holding her back

4:24 am

there is no dr 7 on lickety's list

Ok sorry thanks

I was looking through the back chat and someone said DR but then again someone could have been saying hi to DR

4:26 am

not a problem

THanks and hello

4:30 am

G'd morning Babblers! Looks like we got us a housework avoidance grid!

5:10 am

Hi Lori

5:11 am

(((((Lori))))) exactly!!! lol

5:12 am

Hey pink! ***big hug***

5:13 am

I walked in, and cracked off 4 words, no problem-). Only 392 left to go! ***sips coffee***

5:14 am

It's a lovely grid, Lori, only spoilt by needle and thread words. But you can't have everything. Maybe see you later.

5:14 am

Uni's gonna' crap her drawers, because I believe Monday's are one of her busiest class schedule days. :(

5:15 am

Hey Haz! G'd morning, long time no see. Are you saying hello, or goodbye, or both? :-)

5:15 am

Kind of both, Lori. I'm not as good at avoiding the housework..... It's a great grid, Uniquity will storm through it.

5:16 am

I could give you lessons on avoiding it Haz, I'm a pro, and have it perfected. :-)

5:17 am

pare pares

5:18 am

You'd have years of maternal training to crack. Plus I quite like housework. Sorry!

Hi lori and haz and night

5:18 am

Anyway, off I go.

5:19 am

bye haz

5:19 am

Like housework? Is that possible? ***my sense of being is now shattering***

5:19 am

Later Haz, see ya soon!

5:19 am

5:26 am

helo everyone - again

5:26 am

and the dog got himsel stuck behind the furnace, whining woke me up

5:27 am

hi lynxxx

5:27 am

5:27 am

hi, lynxxx, red, pink

5:28 am

sounds like it DC, how old is he?

5:29 am

we don't know lynxxx. he was full grown when roomie got him 6 years ago, and he's mostly white in the muzzle, has no teeth behind the canines but for the rearmost molars, and he's mostly white below the knees

5:29 am

so we're guessing 9-11, as he's a mutt

5:29 am

fireworks

5:29 am

he's been randomly more puppy-like when indoors last 9 months

5:29 am

congrats, stubbs!

5:31 am

i think i am... but if that's the case then it's only slightly

5:32 am

Congrats stubbs, imprint! G'd morning to all who just surfaced.

5:32 am

while i really enjoy babbling, it was ruined my (and imprint's) sleep schedule

5:32 am

hi, lory

Oh Seain, sorry about the doggie. Teulu does this sometimes on the porch, not with a furnace, but with something similar.

5:32 am

lori rather, you're not a misspelled truck

5:32 am

morning, lori :-)

5:33 am

are you in the States Stubbs & Imprint?

5:33 am

Hey dc! Haven't seen ya' in awhile. G'd morning. :-)

Hi Stubbs, imprint, Lori, andlynxx, une etc..

5:33 am

ty, red, elder animals quite mire elder people, don't they.

5:33 am

G'd morning Une. :-)

we are

5:34 am

!! you've been up all nite then!

5:34 am

Babble doesn't interfere with my sleep schedule, but it does interfere with housework, which breaks my heart.....

? DC?

5:34 am

i fitfully slept for 4 hours, lynxxx

5:34 am

yes we have. this has become the regular in our dorm room

5:35 am

are you working today DC?

5:35 am

no, lynxx, i have flu, can barely talk for the cough

It totally intereferes with my sleep, I have finally given up on finishing on work days.

5:35 am

it disrupts my sleep pattern, i find myself waking up around 7am ish GMT

5:35 am

red, in the dementia. I know humans get forms of it, as do some dogs and cats, and i imagine other animals, though in the wild they'd die sooner.

5:35 am

We'll see if we can organise some smaller grids for you then Stubbs (joking!)

5:36 am

***hnads dc a nice hot toddy, with Jamaican rum***

5:36 am

i babble til i'm done, then goto class around 9, get done around noon, come home and take a nap

5:36 am

ty, lori

5:36 am

DC migraine, flu - look after yourself please!

5:37 am

What country are you in stubbs?

aaahhh, I wasnt sure what the word mire meant in there...

5:37 am

So did we mention it was addictive Stubbs & Imprint - guess not

5:37 am

mire was went to be mirror

That now makes perfect sense...

5:37 am

:-D

5:38 am

Addictive? Understatement of the year..... :-)

5:39 am

Oddly enough, I still have only 12 words. I wonder what my problem is....

5:39 am

lovely icon, une

Lori, you are too busy making toddies and chatting...

5:40 am

too many words to choose from - it's overwhelming

What is the icon Theme? perhaps I can change mine when I get home.

5:40 am

thanks, dc--was listening to lots of tunes last nite :-)

5:41 am

Fav record cover

5:41 am

***yellow tiles, keyboard, yellow tiles, keyboard. Nope, just not seeing a correlation yet***

5:41 am

theme is album covers

Oooh. thanks Lynnx, perhaps I shall just stay with the val day heart. I have been feeling hearty lately.

5:43 am

Okay, swimsuit on, snorkel and flippers, diving in to the grid.

Or I could put up the Cottars, still very into them at the moment.

Oooh So excited, for my trip up to Utah in march I found a great site, that gives you wierd side attractions...

We are going to see these Larger than human size giant arrows in mancos Colorado...

5:44 am

We are going to Moab...

5:45 am

Moab is neat, red, you'll like it i think.

I am looking forward to it, all excpet the half marathon which I may not finish...

tons of plurals in this grid.

5:47 am

5:47 am

also lots of words building on words building on words!

5:47 am

and er's and ed's and est & ests

5:48 am

/tmi/ why are coughs so productive in the AM when one awakes /tmi/ its quite tiresome

all the stuff has been building up....also worse after shower...

5:49 am

better out than in

5:49 am

yes, hot, steamy shower is one's friend; stay in there till it's clear

5:49 am

5:50 am

dc, too bad you can't take all the summer humidity and breathe it in for easy sleep!

5:50 am

396.. i don't have TIME for this today...grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr i haven't finished in a few days...looks like I won't today either...

5:59 am

5:59 am

5:59 am

ty, lore, i'm trying

6:00 am

im told it's nearly 60ºF out this AM :)

6:00 am

and it rained last night

6:00 am

oops

6:00 am

oops indeed. :)

6:01 am

dc s do you get by on a few hours sleep each day?

6:01 am

no, cough and dog kept me up; i expect a nap is in my future. and i think i'll email my prof and pass on class tomorrow night

6:03 am

sounds like you might be rundown dc maybe sometime to rest will help

6:03 am

the way the cough is, it saps my energy

6:04 am

i am staying in the sb okay got to give dc some sound advise on staying well so we can have him here instead of there lol

6:04 am

i was so hoping doc would give me some steroids to get it under control, but no such luck, instead, 'com back in 4 days if you don't improve'

6:04 am

I swear by Vicks Vapor Rub on chest and eating Anticol nonstop - don''t know if you have them in the States

6:05 am

has herin gone?

6:05 am

what is Anticol?

6:05 am

Vaporub doesn't do much for me.

6:06 am

and hit's hard to get out of my mustache; my body temp is not high enough for the chest application to work

6:06 am

Karvol is another decongestant that doesn't burn your nose like the Vicks

6:06 am

Cough syrup and throat easing sweets

6:06 am

with your knowledge you know what to do to get well .... lynxxx is right the hacking cough lemon juice and hot water spiked with green ginger wine

6:06 am

i'm taking sudafed and guaifenesin

6:06 am

green ginger wine?

6:07 am

are your sinuses dripping down your airway?

6:07 am

yep but with the lemon and hotwater old remedy works though you could always inhale the vicks over a bowl of hot water

6:07 am

that sounds great Loredana - must stock up

6:07 am

hello bichon!!

6:07 am

the chest came first, sinus after, so little post-nasal drip

6:08 am

hi all. I know I get bad coughs if I have dripping sinuses

6:08 am

I apply Vicks lavishly to top of chest and up neck before bed

6:08 am

I use something called Simply Saline to help with my sinuses.

6:08 am

so often do i, but this time it's flu :/

6:08 am

Hi Bichon

6:09 am

how are you today, bichon?

6:09 am

Also, the Ricola Lemon Drops are good

6:09 am

acpuncture thats my remedy dc s you should try did wonders on my sinuses extremely good to clear the body of yucky thingsd

6:09 am

I'm okay, not looking forward to "walkies" with the Bichon

6:10 am

Biscuit doesn't "do" rain

6:10 am

DC I think plain & simple bedrest but with lots of pillows so you aren't laying flat. And board out the animals for total rest (as if!)

6:10 am

give biscuit a raincoat bichon dont forget the galoshes!!

6:11 am

makes his hair curl Bichon?

6:11 am

Biscuit is insulted that he has to put his tush close to wet grass

6:11 am

biscuit has a nice fu manchu

6:11 am

Yes, he has a bad hair day too

6:11 am

no no lynxx not buns maybe send him to scrabs she will look after him but you might not get him back dc s

6:11 am

6:39 am

good morning Dcseain. Still not feeling well?

6:41 am

Sorry nDan, can't get the deserty word thing...

7:12 am

awwww poor dog. I had a dog that did that during storms. she'd come out filthy.

7:13 am

in my experience with my mom, the moments of clarity can become the most painful . . .

7:16 am

in7 brought close say, with a broom

thanks, dan!

7:16 am

my grandfather had gone senile and he had a blast!

7:16 am

[other] in7 things in newspapers/magazines

7:16 am

LOL right

7:17 am

his mother got alzheimers, and lived an infinite loop of 1925-1939, which were fascinating years in her life. from what she shared, the family only knew a tiny fraction of what she was doing back then. LOL

7:30 am

be7 scattered across floor

7:30 am

dc seain...I hope you get to feeling better!

7:30 am

why do you all want to celebrate George Bush today?

7:30 am

regular day here in Québec...

7:30 am

I think that's all the 7s Jandy; need my tea, toes are freezing

7:30 am

Our past presidents, Atalante!

7:31 am

no ata, we celebrate the good ones...forget him!

7:31 am

it's washington & lincoln combined ata

7:31 am

atalante...I for one do not. However we have had awesome past presidents.

7:31 am

You are a gem and I have very few to go. Enjoy your tea and warm your tootsies!!!

7:31 am

ata, originally we got Lincoln's bday on the 12th and Washington's on the 22nd; in the 80s they combined them to the 3rd monday in Feb as Presidents' Day

7:31 am

ty dan for all those clues

7:31 am

*giggles* of which he will soon be one. eeep! then he *will* be "celebrated"

7:32 am

oh ok. Lincoln and Washington are worth celebrating! I just had a wonderful vision of hordes celebrating the wonder that is Busg

7:32 am

*Bush

7:32 am

many of us here can hardly wait until 20 January 2009.

7:32 am

356 to go, but I see so many words I wish I could type faster.

7:34 am

we will celebrate bush as much as say, johnson and nixon?

7:35 am

time shall tell, nutty

7:35 am

Johnson wasn't thta bad - he got the civil rights done...

7:35 am

Some chapters of American history books need to be shorter than others.

7:35 am

lol scrabs, so true...

7:35 am

i give you that one, point to monty

7:35 am

very true, that, Luc

7:36 am

same can be said for all countries scrabs

7:36 am

its just that our world social history is shorter to begin with

7:36 am

a third to a half of the history books i grew up with addressed the Civil War, or 'The War of Northern Aggression', as it was called when i was younger.

7:36 am

Good morning/afternoon all.

7:37 am

nice! war of northern aggression, did you live in the south dc?

7:37 am

hey ((Hazel)) !

7:37 am

Hi Hazel

7:37 am

hello, haz

7:37 am

hi haz and the spanglette!

7:37 am

oh..i recognize that face...good morning spangle

7:37 am

Hi..Haz

7:37 am

Hello there - nice big grid today!

7:37 am

i grew up in Northern VA, just outside of DC, in what, back then, was a Union-sympathizing area. :)

7:37 am

my question exactly nutty !

7:38 am

hello haz

7:38 am

Yes, Spangle is in fine form, thanks.

7:38 am

isn't that something

7:38 am

ahhh that explains it DC...

7:38 am

'it', luc?

7:38 am

"Norther agression" war DC

7:39 am

Northern* even

7:39 am

ah, up North, they called it 'The War of Southern Rebellion"

7:39 am

specially considering those silly southerners where the ones trying to leave....

7:39 am

so, tit for tat, happily, by the late 70s, 'civil war' was the term settled on.

7:40 am

'xactly DC... that is the way we canadian were taught...

7:40 am

indeed, nutty

7:40 am

and over here we say "they had a war? silly americans"

7:40 am

we ARE silly

7:40 am

LOL, Ata!

7:41 am

Unless of course you are a young Canadian such as myself, wherein you simply werent taught about it!

7:41 am

lol Uni... and hi !

7:41 am

history is all just a spin factor anyway

7:41 am

it never hit our history lessons either

7:41 am

where i grew up, we were taught in the books to be bitter about the 'illegal seizure' of the western third of the state on 1 march 1863. The teachers pointed out that the constitution was suspended, and VA was in rebellion, so what was there to complain about. LOL

7:41 am

Hi Uni

7:41 am

true enough uni...we learned about catier..champlain and lewis an dclark...but... the civil war etc...

7:42 am

yet we got the 100 yrs war & war of the roses

7:42 am

You mean the Civil War, Atalante? We certainly got the War of Independence taught to us.

7:42 am

cartier*

7:42 am

I only ever learned about the world wars, really. Hey everyone! I am off shortly, but I came up for air as I have made it over half

7:42 am

hiya Uniquity

7:42 am

neither. no american history at all. at least i don't remember any!

7:42 am

i took american history and skipped european, looking back, i should have taken european instead, far more interesting

7:42 am

its a marathon..but at least is not a twisty marathone

7:42 am

I took Canadian History as an elective in my last yr of HS. Great teacher too.

7:43 am

Hello Uniquity!

7:43 am

it was odd when i lived in Boston. When they say 'The War' they mean the War for Independence. Down here, it's The Civil War.

7:43 am

we had years of russian tyrannical despots instead

7:43 am

in HS, we skipped Rome and Greece so we could cover up through Vietnam.

7:43 am

I took can. history as opposed to geography, then global history in high school.

7:43 am

So had the Russians.

7:43 am

Interesting, Seain--2 different perspectives.

7:44 am

our history lessons covered everything ... but stopped mysteriously at the 2nd world war...

7:44 am

it's normal for history classes to run about a generation behind.

7:44 am

I began to feel old when my daughters were studying events in history that I remember happening.

7:45 am

yes, scrabbler, especially interesting as Mass and Maine both lost half there men in the civil war.

7:45 am

true DC - and lol hazel

7:45 am

i'm starting to go blind from this grid...

7:45 am

so, when i see 9/11 in a history book i'll feel old?

7:45 am

I'm trying to remember what topics we had in history classes now. WW1. The Tudors (over and over again). Wolsey. He popped up every year. Russian despots. The Middle Ages. Byzantine Empire. hmm.

7:45 am

I don't think you'll ever feel old, evanonut.

7:45 am

i find the byzantine interesting

7:45 am

Yes, Nut, we will say, "I remember, it was a Tuesday morning, and I was_____..........."

7:46 am

i remember that empire like it was yesterday

7:46 am

i enjoyed my semester on ancient india, and my semester on the ancient songhai.

7:46 am

...and i was working at the bank

7:46 am

oooh... you got to learn ancient India, dc??

7:47 am

Nut, maybe you had a former life in the Byzantine age. I feel particularly drawn to the Medieval Age--castles, knights, etc.

7:47 am

oh and feudal systems in England. every year, again

7:47 am

i bet i did

7:47 am

yes, Lady, we had a year we got to choos between india, songhai, aztecs, and maya. studying spanish, i'd had my fill of the latter, so i chose the former.

7:47 am

yes scrabs and dragons, fair ladies...etc

7:48 am

Surely your origins were piratical, evanonut?

7:48 am

that's great

7:48 am

I

7:48 am

wouldn't they be like the original pirates, you know, before pirates took to the sea

7:48 am

I have a toy castle (kids' toy) with horses, knights, a dragon, displayed on a shelf down here.

7:49 am

Landlubber pirates?

hi all

7:49 am

indeed haz, they sail the river valleys here in the East.

7:49 am

morning!

7:49 am

hi angelina - lol hazel

7:49 am

Hi Angelina

7:49 am

morning, angelina

7:49 am

scrabs, nick has his 6 month appt today. :)

7:49 am

I saw a baby named Angelina on Saturday when I worked.

7:49 am

hi feather

7:49 am

Hi Featherbee--shots! Poor Nicky.

7:50 am

oh right! :( forgot about that little part of it.

hi mont, dc and scrabs

7:50 am

oh ,the PAs are the PIAs today, i see

7:50 am

do landpirates use land yachts?

7:51 am

land yachts are rather fun to drive

7:51 am

Big decision, Featherbee: now that he is 6 mo old, do yuo want him to get his first flu shot. (Second would be due in 30 days.) Seain would vote YES!

7:51 am

Landpirates bury their treasure in ponds.

7:51 am

well...fellow babblers, it's off to work for me. Good luck and have fun.

7:51 am

Welcome home, Ata, and hello, all.

bye lori, hagd

hi vicuna

7:51 am

Bye Lori Ann, our newest member and addict!

7:51 am

for land yachts, u just need more wind is all...

7:51 am

Hello Vicuna!

7:51 am

ciao, lori, have a great day!

7:51 am

hi vicuna

7:51 am

hi vi!

7:52 am

later lori ann

7:52 am

though scrabbs, i did get one of the strains not in the shot this year.

7:52 am

though i do think the shot is a good idea

7:52 am

hi Vi !

7:52 am

But would landpirates be able to board other land yachts?

7:52 am

morning, vicuna!

7:52 am

true, Seain--experts guessed wrong, or, more true is that the viruses mutated and tricked all of us. Damn little pathogens!

7:52 am

depends on the wind factor hazel...

7:52 am

aaaaaaaugh, daniel's hammering.

7:52 am

knowing what i've seen on teh highways here, i'd say so, haz

7:53 am

You'd have to get your timing right. A bit like the opposite of getting off a moving bus.

7:53 am

seeing exactly HOW much noise he can make before mommy and nick go crazy

7:53 am

They'd shout, "Avast, ye sea-swizzlers!"

7:53 am

Ignore him, Featherbee.

7:53 am

"Swab the mudflaps, me hearties!"

7:54 am

i was, till he started opening and slamming the freezer door shut! we stopped that, back to cacophony

7:54 am

He certainly has been pushing his limits recently, Feather.

7:54 am

Apprentice the lad to a carpenter and be done with him!

7:55 am

back, got distracted...heya herbee

7:55 am

children have limits?

7:55 am

if we could enroll my elder nephew in a school that taught auto mechanics or such, we'd do it in a minute. It'd engage him, and get him to see the value of reading and math.

7:56 am

We pretend that they do, Ata.

7:56 am

no kidding! actually, this was more in the line of "i'm making music mommy!" than "let's see if i can p*** mommy off" he stopped on his own, wanted some frozen peaches.

7:56 am

could he volunteer at such a place for a few hours each week, dc?

7:56 am

at almost 9? Likely not

7:57 am

the family friends that had such business don't any longer.

7:57 am

ahhhhh LOL

7:57 am

oh my what a large grid we have

7:57 am

It's a shame that (especially in the US) apprenticeships are not really an option any more for those so inclined.

7:57 am

Stick a false be5 on him and put him in platform shoes.

hi phand

7:57 am

no vic, that's what technical school is for

7:57 am

they are coming back in fashion over here

7:58 am

TY for that be5-6 clue!!

7:58 am

hi there phan

7:58 am

good morning Angel

7:58 am

Which, platform shoes, false be6 or apprenticeships?

7:58 am

hello, hello

7:58 am

all of them!

7:58 am

Hi phandmd

7:58 am

Nothing says "hip" like a false beard.

7:59 am

So, a false-be5ed platform shoed apprentice is the way forward?

7:59 am

Aaargh, I'm an idiot!

7:59 am

most definitely

7:59 am

And I'm not even doing the stupid grid today!

7:59 am

don't forget the be6 on top ... rofl

7:59 am

Poor Vicuna - to the PB!

7:59 am

Off to the penalty box, Vicuna. Enjoy the treats!

8:00 am

Come to think of it, if I'm not doing the grid I could be writing a million grid words an every comment and not even know it.

8:00 am

"hands over tea and croissants to Vi in the PB"

8:00 am

there are still some chocolate cordials in there -all flavoured as mixed drinks, have a mojito!

8:00 am

mmmm tea

8:00 am

Yes, that happens.

8:00 am

Yes, you could be st5ing words all over the place and you wouldn't know. The chag log would be be8.

8:01 am

oh hurray. I have milk now. Of course, having been away for a week, our milk here was more like cheese. Do husbands ever buy milk?

8:01 am

Oh, stop teasing, Haz! It's cruel!

8:01 am

oooh..i just came back int time for that vic..thanks..didn't have that one

8:01 am

Only if they have been instructed so to do, Atalante. You weren't expecting him to take initiative?

8:01 am

Where were you, Ata?

8:01 am

YES WE DO Ata !!!

8:02 am

Am I drawing you into the grid, Vicuna. It's SO lovely.

8:02 am

It's montreal the Wonder-Husband!

8:02 am

will you marry me then please, Luc? I like being able to drink tea after a long journey home!

8:02 am

looking after sister, scrabs

8:02 am

AND NO instructions needed !! - believe it or not !!

8:02 am

Too late, Atalante, he's already taken, I think.

8:03 am

would love to Ata...but i'm already spoken for...

8:03 am

And so are you, for that matter, Ata.

8:03 am

I must get ready for tennis now. Then I work 1-8. With winter vacation for the kids and President's Day and some parents not working, it is unpredictable how the office will be--could be quiet, could be crazy. Sometimes parents wants to come in when it is most convenient for them.

8:03 am

Although, he may fall into the category of the sort of man Heather Mills McCartney is looking to marry next.

8:03 am

if there's one that understands the "needing to buy milk" concept, there must be another out there!

8:03 am

Yes, your ill sister--did you get my e-mail, Ata?

8:03 am

have a great day scrabs - enjoy !

8:03 am

Do you not have doorstep deliveries of milk, Atalante?

8:04 am

yes, TY! we've emailed her main dr about it, waiting for a reply :)

8:04 am

ok..i only have a-e and the dreaded re's to go

8:04 am

I wish, Haz *sigh*

8:04 am

GO GO, carlee!!!

8:04 am

*smug* we have our own milkman.

8:04 am

Bye all!

8:04 am

oh! thank you for reminding me scrab and ata... I have to google "spleen kit" for my brother

8:05 am

milkmen went the way of .. of.. of... they don't exist here anymore

8:05 am

Bye Scrabbler - have a good day.

8:05 am

LUCKY lucky lucky lucky you

8:05 am

ciao, scrabbs

8:05 am

milkmen have disappeared from view decades ago around these par**...

8:05 am

some of the villages have round here, but we don't

8:05 am

I know.

8:05 am

last place i know that still has milkmen, or did, was Cleveland, OH, thanks to Dairymens, a co-op of convenience stores. don't know if they still deliver or not

8:06 am

Some old-fashioned things are worth preserving. Platform shoes, for example.

8:06 am

i remeber milkmen with horse-pulled wagons...

8:06 am

i was fiscinated by the dairy deliviries when visiting my grandparents. :)

8:06 am

new castle, pa has milkemen

8:06 am

They have milk delivery around here (Boston suburbs) for those as wish to pay for it.

8:07 am

There used to be horse-drawn milk delivery when I was a student in Edinburgh, not sure if it's still the case. Milk delivery still going strong here.

8:07 am

north shore, vi?

8:07 am

No, western suburbs, Needham.

8:07 am

ah, okay, that makes sense.

8:08 am

well I made it better than halfway. as today's a holiday, I think I'll go back to bed.

8:08 am

Most of the supermarkets also offer delivery of all groceries, including dairy products.

8:08 am

finally vanquised the Ps!

8:08 am

true, the grocery stores do.

8:08 am

sleep tight Lady N

8:08 am

though not with the clockwork precision of the milkman.

8:08 am

we have supermarket deliveries here. I looove online grocery shopping

8:09 am

have a great day, everyone!

8:09 am

ok..HOw can this be...a-d to go ( and re's of course..) and OVER 100 words to go?!?!?!?!?!

8:09 am

let me guess... there 105 re's

bye lady, tc

8:09 am

how can parsnip still be a phantom? I've stared at it for hours and still see it

8:10 am

no the REs aren't bad today, it's the PAs

8:10 am

hasta, lady!

8:10 am

Parsnip was the first first word I saw... except of course I didn't.

8:10 am

me too

8:10 am

slayed those pa's LONG ago..oopsy..hubby up..i get to make coffee now

8:11 am

later carlee

8:11 am

And yes, Haz, I have begun the blasted thing. What else am I going to do all day with kids home on holiday?

8:12 am

hi peeps...big ol' grid today

hi krista

8:12 am

hey krista !

8:12 am

Exactly, Vicuna. You couldn't be expected to do craft things with them or entertain them or anything.

8:13 am

How is it? Seems easy so far, with my 13 words. :)

8:13 am

They need to learn independent play techniques, don't they?

8:13 am

*wonders what on earth Haz is talking about* "Entertain them?????"

8:13 am

Hello Krista - it's a lovely grid.

8:13 am

Cartoon Network!!

8:14 am

I know, Vicuna. Some people do that with their children. Strange.

8:15 am

apparently the cough lingers for weeks.

8:20 am

no, montreal, should i?

8:20 am

I've heard the same from sickies around here.

8:20 am

definitely DC !

8:21 am

Is that the one about the aftermath of nuclear war, Montreal?

8:21 am

who wrote it, luc?

8:21 am

something about a father and son...

8:21 am

"The road" is a "love story" between a father/son set in a post-apocalyptic country (unnamed - but we suspect USA)

8:22 am

Cormac McCarthy, same as No country for old men...

8:22 am

yes krista...

8:22 am

oh cool, i'll hit the library tomorrow if i'm up for it

8:23 am

u won't regret it DC

205 - break time - BBL - happy babbling all - "POOF"

8:24 am

I am reading the first work of fiction I've read in years (I know, I'm boring)..Pillars of the Earth. Oprah is nothing if not a good salesperson.

bye mont, tc

bye bont

bye mont 2 - sorry

8:25 am

bye the way, just finished "Playing for pizza" by John Grisham - very humourous book, a delightful read...

8:26 am

"Pillars of the earth" was a great book set in medieval times - apparently, there's a sequel just came out set about 200 years later...

8:26 am

bye all - "ACTUAL POOF"

8:27 am

Oh! Good to know! I am thoroughly enjoying this book. Bye!

8:27 am

8:33 am

I thought you had been quiet for a while, Ata.

8:33 am

I've been running back and forth across the country

8:34 am

**resisting urge to say "your legs must be tired"*

8:34 am

looool they are!

8:34 am

Oh, hello FMitch - back from manhandling a wardrobe and hanging out sheets. It's all go, here.

8:34 am

good morning, all -- another monster!

8:34 am

I read back a little, there..is everything ok now?

8:35 am

(Nope, still no parsnip. Keep checking, just in case.)

8:35 am

morning, nan, indeed so!

8:35 am

LOL afternoon Haz

8:35 am

158 on first pass. Does anyone get them all on first pass?

8:35 am

And there's no serenade either, Vicuna.

8:35 am

yep, everything's fine - for now!

8:35 am

Hi Nan!

8:35 am

dart got 300 on his first pass

8:35 am

*sings mournfully* Is there no serenade for meeeeee?

8:35 am

If they do, Jayde, they keep quiet about it for fear of vengeance squads.

8:36 am

Glad to hear it.

8:36 am

Haha!

8:36 am

Oh no. Have you started to sing again, Vicuna?

8:36 am

Apparently so, Haz.

did u say hi 2 me krista or another nan?

8:36 am

Well, try to keep it down to a dull roar.

8:37 am

Mournful is always a dull roar, silly Haz.

8:37 am

Whats wrong with Vi's singing?

8:37 am

Now when I start singing triumphantly, that will not be dull.

8:37 am

I was saying that to Cybernan..thought you were here when I came on..but hi anyway Nancethefan!

8:37 am

No, mournful involves dogs howling. That's never dull.

8:38 am

Absolutely nothing, FM. But Haz has this terrible tin ear and can't handle beautiful music.

that's ok - hey back krista

8:38 am

nor quiet

8:38 am

off to wake the kids..they are sleeping late...I must be crazy to give up this solitude....

8:38 am

(FMitch, I'll not talk about Vi's singing, for fear of offending her. Best not to antagonise her)

8:38 am

Sorry, what? hang in a sec let me take my earplugs out)

lol - bye krista or r u coming back?

8:38 am

*mrup, mrup, mrup*

8:39 am

Keep them in, FMitch, I beg you.

8:39 am

All together now! *Sing, sing a song...."

sorry - i find it difficult after so many years not to type IM abbreviations

8:39 am

I'll be off for a while..breakfast, etc...always off and on throughout the day when I'm home. See you later, I

8:39 am

Sing it loud - see that's the part we're trying to wean Vicuna away from.

8:39 am

"make it simple to last the whole night looooooong"

8:39 am

I'm sure (hit enter too soon)

ok - b sweet & have a good 1

8:40 am

'Don't worry if it's not good enough for anyone else to hear' - again, Vicuna needs to take this with a pinch of salt.

8:40 am

Bye Krista

8:40 am

UR SO MEAN HAZ, U HATE ME!

8:40 am

:)

8:40 am

Right on cue 2.40 and it's tantrum time.

8:41 am

And I can't type for laughing.

8:41 am

Y R U SO MEAN?

8:41 am

Didn't you know that I was mean?

8:41 am

U PEplE R *&$##. I HATE U!

ut o - this sounds like it's getting violent

8:42 am

dear me, vicuna, do get a grip!

lol

8:42 am

(I'm so bad at this. It's harder than it looks to be a troll.)

8:42 am

H8 u mean!

8:42 am

Hey Krista, I have caught the bug that my kids have had

8:42 am

Sings off at a tangent ... "You're so Vain..."

8:42 am

'I bet you think this song is about you'

8:43 am

Atalante is a much better troll than I. Is that a complement?

8:43 am

Takes years of training Vi to be a troll impersonator.

8:43 am

'Don't you? Don't you? Don't you'

lol - i was going to type the same thing

8:43 am

Dear me, has the record stuck?

8:43 am

*smug*

8:43 am

smug backwards is gums

8:44 am

Well, how can I ever train and learn when every time I try to be obnoxious you people squelch my dreams?

8:44 am

So it is. So if you back out of a dentist without needing treatment could you be said to be smug gums?

8:44 am

Vi sometimes its best to leave it to the experts, I can do you a class in stomping if you like?

8:44 am

LOL Haz

8:45 am

Is it rhythmic stomping in Greek tunics?

8:45 am

toga tango

8:45 am

Or wait... perhaps... being an inexpert troll will annoy you smuggies even WORSE! Muuhaha haha!

8:45 am

*wishes that particular snippet would waft off into the mists of time*

8:46 am

no, that'd be toga flamenco

8:46 am

Botheration. Husband needs the computer. Waaaaah! Back later.

8:46 am

Mr Haz, is not allowed!

8:46 am

Poor Haz. See you later!

8:46 am

ciao, haz!

9:30 am

hello april!!

9:30 am

hiya flosey

9:33 am

so when they tell you the points of the word on the licketysplit page, is that before or after the multiplier for the number of letters in the word?

9:33 am

Oh, April, you're hooked. Might as well go pro, get an icon, and prepare to be assimilated.

9:34 am

pi7, 36 anyone?

9:35 am

Morning, Seain, Pink, Owl, Movieman, Carlee, Hurshy (sick?? sorry!) Fmitch, Sadie, Flosey, all.

9:35 am

april if the number says 6/24, that means the total count of the word is tripled, so divide by 3 and you know what to look for - a word totalling 8

9:35 am

thanks flosey

9:35 am

yw, hope my ramble was clear

10:10 am

hi all

10:11 am

oh, i didn't realise it logged me on as my husband., it's me, jbp

10:11 am

hi bwthemoose

10:11 am

Hello again, Vicuna

10:11 am

Hello, jbp incognito!

10:11 am

with 147 words, I'm not starting over as me. ;-)

10:11 am

does your husband like mooses?

10:12 am

so it's a big one today

10:12 am

he just likes bullwinkle and rocky

10:12 am

I'm curious about the name as well.

10:12 am

bw, we have a Natasha who plays, too

10:12 am

But if you enter the words as him, he gets the points and the glory while you've done the hard work!

10:13 am

ah yes.

10:13 am

hello everyone

10:13 am

My children have turned their talents to counterfeiting, so I have some time to look for words for a bit. =)

10:13 am

my fave from the series was dudley doo right

10:13 am

counterfeiting? good for them

10:13 am

Excellent, Vicuna. Do the bank notes look real?

10:13 am

hi, orange

10:13 am

yeah, i don't know how much glory I'll be giving him in this grid...

10:13 am

wow, it's great that your kids are learining a trade. ;-)

hi haz!

10:14 am

Well, I suppose more accurately it's design. They are not attempting to copy the old notes. They prefer to come up with new and imporved money.

10:14 am

*improved

10:14 am

You've given him 147 word's worth of glory already.

10:14 am

Hello TO!

10:14 am

i'm sure they notes will look great if they're counterfeiting US currency

10:14 am

it's improved if it's in my account!!

10:14 am

encourage the counterfeiting. good source of income

10:14 am

yeah, we're not that competitive.

10:14 am

pi7?

10:15 am

But they are happily declaring, "We're making money!" so it sounded promising.

10:15 am

Yes, start with the banknotes, work your way up to passports.

10:15 am

i used to get pi7 on my shirt by sitting in a pi4grove

10:15 am

hurshy the pi7 I have is a compound word

10:16 am

Thanks, seain.

10:16 am

pi7 - Christmas tree juice

10:16 am

200 words done, 196 left, half way!

10:17 am

awesome, thanks haz!

10:17 am

You're welcome!

10:17 am

Oh, I'm so honored - apparently some of the new bills feature me instead of any president or queen!

10:17 am

Well, you're one up on Atalante then. So far as I know, she isn't featured on our currency.

10:17 am

could i get a clue for ep5?

10:18 am

*smug!*

10:18 am

all hail Vic!!

10:18 am

ty peri and haz

10:18 am

And are you sitting on a throne, as befits your status?

10:18 am

not *yet*

10:18 am

ep5 - ep plus what a thespian does on stage.

10:18 am

thanks haz

10:19 am

Yes, I'm on a throne (although it does suspiciously resemble an ordinary desk chair.)

10:19 am

any help with the bottom row i??

10:19 am

You could always declare your oa4 house a republic, Atalante and strike your own coinage.

10:19 am

That bottom row i is useful for putting things in.

10:19 am

this is true. with Hobbit on

10:20 am

I think so. Passport to Canterbury, I can see it now.

10:20 am

That bottom row i is also remarkably incapable, in5

10:20 am

I feel less smug now. Apparently I'm only on the ten cent piece.

10:21 am

Yikes ..

10:22 am

10:22 am

thks haz, great clue!

10:22 am

lovelly but cold day in Edinburgh.3 but not 396 words are a bit to many for me but not for my Eileen!

11:01 am

Have we got the garden defrosted yet?

11:01 am

my daughter is making her a pillow and blanket for the box we'll bury her in...she had been acting strangely, so I was going to take her to the vet last Monday if she was no better, but she seemed ok then. Sad, but a good life lesson for the kids.

11:01 am

Thanks, all. :)

11:01 am

Good day BabbleNation! What a wonderful Monday present this grid is!

Should the chief of Police be pusing drugs?

11:03 am

11:03 am

Hello Scarlet - yes, a treat for a Monday.

11:03 am

Hi, angelina!! :-)

11:03 am

Hello Haz... are you feeling up to par again?

11:03 am

Hello Scarlet, Hi angelina

11:03 am

But they're medicinal, FMitch. It's entirely appropriate, I feel.

11:03 am

hi fm

11:04 am

Hello, FMitch... I did not have the time to make your recipe, but I am anticipating it greatly.

11:04 am

Yes, thanks, Scarlet, much improved on last week.

11:04 am

lol

11:04 am

That is good news, Haz. Welcome back from the Kleenex Wars.

11:04 am

11:05 am

Hello, Ata! ARe you home at last?

Good morning Babblers :)

11:05 am

Hi, Chaotic Bliss!

11:05 am

Oh Ata I knew there was something I had to tell - totally devine, soooo scrummy, just bought all the ingredients to make it again

11:05 am

Thank you Scarlet. Now if I could just get my daughter better, I'd be happy. She's still coughing.

11:05 am

11:05 am

gm chaotic

11:05 am

mmmmmmmm!

How is everyone today?

11:06 am

Must get eyes tested thought ChocolateBliss had just arrived :)

11:06 am

That is too sad, Haz... we have, (knock on wood) been fairly influenza-free, but we also concentrate on staying away from people.

11:06 am

11:06 am

Welcome back then, Ata!

*laugh*

11:08 am

group is Osibisa

11:09 am

I didn't bother looking at flip so I don't have any yet.

11:09 am

I love Roger Dean's work

11:09 am

Let's see if my snow icon shows up. It's for tomorrow, so I'm early (scene from my window)

11:11 am

11:12 am

(whispers to FM - I've finished a little while ago)

11:12 am

I'll make up the guest room, Chaotic

11:12 am

Hello Lucien! Are you recovering from your bout of flu? (I hope)

Whereabouts are you, Fiber?

11:12 am

wb mont

11:12 am

madison wisconsin, eye of the storm

11:12 am

Tsk, Congrats Haz!!!

11:12 am

we're predicted to break 100" this year

Ah. Very nice for snow.

11:13 am

Ta!

11:13 am

Hi, Fiber... I can't look at your icon yet... my Dell gets very cranky when I interrupt the game (especially when so large), so I will see it later.

I'm originally from Pittsburgh, PA, living in northern Virginia now, though.

11:13 am

hi dear scarlet - finished my antibiotics last nite - turned out it was a sinus infection with bronchitis on the rebound... but feeling much better now thank you - how about yourself ?

11:13 am

I know, Scarlet, mine warned me several times, the game was so slow.

11:14 am

Then maybe it isn't just my machine, Fiber... glad yu understand.

11:14 am

could I get some help on the ca 6/21.. anyone?

11:14 am

hi again angelina - almost missed you there !!

11:14 am

beautiful pic, Fiber Art

11:14 am

thanks, Krista--just leaned out my door with bathrobe and slippers

11:14 am

Good news, then, Lucien... we have been holding our own through some very strange weather, but I hope we continue with our flu-free season... thank you for asking. I hope you perk up soon, dear friend.

11:15 am

hello there luc, didn't know you were sick, glad your feeling better

11:15 am

ca6/21 - run together what you put your clothes in for holiday with a seabird

11:15 am

awww what a lovely guinea pig

11:15 am

ty scarlet and flosey - things are getting back to normal... finally...

11:16 am

Hello, flosey! That kind of news makes me happy, Luc.

11:16 am

thanks haz..couldn't find it

11:16 am

hi scarlet

11:16 am

You're welcome, ruru.

11:16 am

:-)

11:16 am

c's are almost done..yeah!!!!!!

11:16 am

Thanks, Ata. She was a cutie, and very sweet.

11:17 am

hey luc. did you get the french swear (me5)

11:17 am

awwww I bet. she was a beautiful colour

11:17 am

bien sur autumn tx, the plural as well (plural never used in french...)

11:18 am

for that word that is...

11:18 am

yeah, I know....but it's another word on the grid. Hows the weather over there?

11:19 am

Her coloring was very interesting, as if there were a line dividing her down the middle..black on one side, cream on the other (paws, belly, even her lips). Then again,that could be common (never had a piggy before).

11:19 am

unbelievalble weather here --- + 6 degrees C and cloudy (it rained thru the night !!!) - temp will fall steadily the rest of the week though... and in your neighbourhood ?

11:20 am

mine was like that too! black and orange, though, not cream

11:20 am

foggy right now, the sun hasn't burned it off yet. will get up to 9 over the next few days. I guess your snow is all gone?

11:21 am

The problem with big grids.... I never know if I am putting words into chat....

11:21 am

no no autumn - there is so much that it won't go away for at least another month...

11:21 am

Howdy Fellow Babblers!

11:21 am

I like the black and orange ones...they are all cute, though. Some cuter than others...don't like the white ones with red eyes. :)

11:21 am

hi aloy

11:21 am

Hello Aloy!

11:22 am

good morning aloy

11:22 am

Hello Aloy!

11:22 am

Ahoy Aloy !

11:22 am

Aloy... I am in a blissful state with such a lovely grid! And, Hi to Florida!

11:22 am

Maybe that coloring this IS common, if yours was like that, too.

11:22 am

I meant "thing"

11:22 am

yes, we have been getting nice fat grids lately! (-: Keeps me out of trouble..

11:23 am

**sending my wishful thinking to Luc** I remember those eastern winters. Spent 5 years in Ott. Drove down to Mont a lot.

11:23 am

lol

11:23 am

There'd be nothing common about anything of Ata's.

11:23 am

LOL... You and moi both, Aloy!

11:23 am

no idea - she was the only guinea pig I ever had, too

11:23 am

You can't be smug about being common.

11:24 am

One could break a nail doing housework, or get a detergent rash and dry up your skin washing dishes

11:24 am

I dunno. JOrdan is

11:24 am

True, Haz. Probably a huge cooincidence. :)

11:24 am

ahh yes - I see you're in BC now - i guess snow never really stays for any length of time over there ?

11:24 am

Or... run out of coffee... or forget to feed the resident feline... or, or, or...

11:24 am

Aloy never wash up w/o rubber gloves!

11:25 am

my Expert hasn't worked for days...need to reboot, but my machine hates rebooting...takes ages to act right..

11:25 am

True about Jordan. She's not so smug now - her new veneers are giving her trouble. 'My agony' by Jordan.

11:25 am

no, luc. our snow leaves as quickly as it comes.

11:25 am

oh yes. so much Jordan angst

11:26 am

you are right, Aloy... hubby even read an article to that effect, and I have a friend who ALWAYS wears rubber gloves, but.. I can't "feel" the squeaky clean of the pots and pans and stuff.. I know, sicko that I am.. (with broken nails and dry skin, lol)

11:26 am

Who is Jordan, if I may ask?

11:26 am

she's horrendous, thats who she is

11:26 am

I mean, you are right, FMitch.. lol, brain is fuzzy

11:26 am

Now you're talking to yourself, Aloy? LOL

11:26 am

that's what i thought autumn - tx for your "wishful thinking" though...

11:26 am

Jordan is a talentless ex-model who has managed to con people into being interested in her.

11:26 am

okay - have to dive into this grid. I only have 19 words and I am sure there are another 377 wanting to be found :)

11:26 am

Aloy, I am the same. I have cracked knuckles, but cannot stand to wear gloves for dishes.

11:26 am

*grin* thought you were going to argue with yourself there :)

11:26 am

yup, do it constantly Scarlet...

11:27 am

she has huge boobs and a stupid husband

11:27 am

A tacky version of pa5 Hilton

11:27 am

good luck moon - 153 left here...

11:27 am

That may be a "sign" Aloy... but, harmless.

11:27 am

Never heard of her..sounds like a good thing.

11:27 am

The chest has been reduced, though. She's not happy with the new shape. Someday she's going to waken up and find her face on the other side of the pillow staring at her.

11:27 am

Boobs?

11:28 am

And thanks for the word I would not have thought would be allowed.

11:28 am

Then she really will know what agony is.

11:28 am

Down, Tor, down!

11:28 am

Hello torgone. Like Pavlov's dog....

11:29 am

I don't know how much tackier a woman can become, Haz, when Ms. Hilton is the standard...

11:29 am

lol hazel...

11:29 am

Hi, tor... I love to say that... reminds me of a story...

11:29 am

Jordan is worse. She's orange.

11:29 am

Oy!

11:29 am

lmao yes

11:29 am

I love stories ..

11:30 am

and flaunts her handicapped kid around to get more news stories

11:30 am

Good grief, Ata... she sounds like an awful, imitation human being...

11:30 am

Must look her up on Google.

11:30 am

woo half way! (this is my first time)

11:30 am

She has three children. When we tell you that her daughter is called Princess Tiiiiaaammmiii, you'll get the picture.

11:30 am

Does she just go by Jordan?

11:30 am

wtg, Arabella... and welcome to Babble!

11:31 am

oh you missed an i there, Haz

11:31 am

Take a stiff drink first, Krista.

11:31 am

A newbie!! Welcome to the loony bin, Arabella!!

11:31 am

Jordan, but she wants to be taken seriously as Katie Price. Some chance!

11:31 am

YOUPPI arabella ! - well done for a first time - bravo - keep at it !

11:31 am

Jordan and her husband Peter Andre

11:31 am

Thanks.

11:32 am

She's the one that THE DRESS was inspired by.

11:32 am

Good afternoon all.......

11:32 am

hi caitlyn !

11:32 am

oh yes! THE DRESS

11:32 am

Hello caitlyn. Have you got your smelling salts handy - Krista is googling Jordan and the shock may be too great.

11:33 am

hi everyone, back for more torture

11:33 am

Boy, odd words are st6/30 about in this grid ..

11:33 am

Smelling salts at the ready!!! Poor krista

11:33 am

That tells me everything, then, Haz... the DRESS is the most appalling thing I have ever seen...

11:33 am

hi there crpw !

11:33 am

No matter how much I type the Ps won't go grey waaaaaa :((

11:33 am

is it sexy at least scarlet ?

11:33 am

And hello yet again, good Babblers.

11:34 am

I know, Scarlet, I know.

11:34 am

Nope, still no parsnip!

11:34 am

Jordan's wedding was entirely baby pink, I seem t oremember

11:34 am

Ive been trying to find a space for That Dress in the PB, perhaps I should use it more like a marquee?

11:34 am

LOL... NO, NO, NO Lucien... it is hideous by a warthog's vision...

11:34 am

((((((FMitch))))))) there there ,dont cry

11:34 am

It was, Atalante, you're right.

11:34 am

She has that "dime-a-dozen" look to me. I have never understood why people who look like every other bimbo become famous.

11:34 am

re-lol scarlet...

11:34 am

yes! an extra room

11:35 am

No parsnip and NO SERENADE!

11:35 am

Thank you cait :)

11:35 am

cos she was a glamour model, krista

11:35 am

can anyone help me with the be8s?

11:35 am

Haz, you really do want me to sing, don't you.

11:35 am

I told you she was talentless, Krista. But she sells magazines to other airheads.

11:35 am

de6,21 help

11:35 am

oh I got it

11:35 am

GLAMOUR !! Not my idea of glamour

11:35 am

there are more than 1 BE8 ??????

11:36 am

Wonder if she'll become known "over here." Once again, I don't see how the world has any more room for one more copy of the same....

11:36 am

be8s are built from the word Torgone referenced, meaning scattered about.

11:36 am

be8 - two of them (different verb forms) for what something is distributed willy-nilly.

11:36 am

be8 - the sort of males who are interested in spangly things.

11:37 am

what is wrong with her kids?

11:37 am

Krista we will send her over...but promise you will keep her please

11:37 am

(other than she is their mother)

11:37 am

Hmm.... don't have that one yet.

11:37 am

Lol, no thanks.

11:37 am

Her first child has multiple handicaps - cue lots of magazine articles about her agony. The other two are fine.

11:37 am

she has 1 kid who is partially blind and is *huge* from some odd disease. and then Princess Tiaiaiiiaiiiammmiaiiai

11:37 am

11:37 am

11:38 am

You're forgetting the middle child. Junior.

11:38 am

ROFL!!

11:38 am

cue much angst cos she took drugs and drank through her pregnancy with the handicapped one

11:38 am

She's spelt it wrong and hasn't got the accent.

11:38 am

Googled. Yuck and yuck. Went to HIS website... now I am nauseous... both WAY over the top... Ata and Haz, you have once again done me in!

11:38 am

11:38 am

LOL!!

11:38 am

11:38 am

11:39 am

11:39 am

11:39 am

AND she's written books.

11:39 am

11:40 am

She writes?

11:40 am

Who else could pen such breathless prose?

11:40 am

i understand Ata - we have local "bimbo celebrities" that i simply cannot stand... but yes, they are everywhere !

11:40 am

you think she knows the alphabet well enough?

11:40 am

But dont forget she has now had a nose job anda boob reduction because she wants to be taken seriously

11:40 am

Oh, yes, Scarlet, she has written her own life story - Volume 35 due out any day. AND her fictional offerings are also available.

11:40 am

Oh, man..hate to leave this...I needed the laugh..but have to run along...MEOW!

11:40 am

11:41 am

lol Ata...

11:41 am

Bonjour stid!!

11:41 am

hibye, Stiddy!

11:41 am

oh yeah. reduced from G to F

11:41 am

Bimbo eruptions are common in the U.S.A., especially when you have a Commander in Chief who trolls for the questionable females to, er, entertain...

11:41 am

Not only that, caitlyn - new teeth veneers. Soon she will be completely rebuilt and she can auction herself off on e-bay.

11:41 am

Krista! Shame on you lobbing a grid word on your way out, so we can't even send you to the PB!

11:41 am

bye krista - take care !

11:41 am

Bye Krista

11:42 am

Laughing so hard now...

11:42 am

11:42 am

Oh, it's stidmama, everyone. Better stopping dissing the bimbos celebrities! Judging from her entrance, she is one!

11:42 am

rofl... so who exactly are you referring to (not me obviously) *looking at very un-modified middle-aged figure*

11:42 am

And your point is, Luc? LOL

11:43 am

(Man, from the way I type, you'll think I'm one, as well!)

11:43 am

lolol - and hi stid !

11:43 am

She's married - her wedding was AN EVENT.

11:43 am

okay, I promised myself a half hour to get this thing done today (haven't started yet)

11:43 am

Not THIS Commander... the previous, well-known one whose wife is in the middle of a power grab, Luc.

11:43 am

THE DRESS inspiring THE DRESS: http://tinyurl.com/qjvt4

11:43 am

11:44 am

oh man, a true vision of a toddler in cotton-candy heaven!

11:45 am

11:45 am

So understated, wasn't it?

11:45 am

11:45 am

and she met her husband on a reality TV show

11:45 am

gasp, coming up for air.. hi stid and vicuna and anyone who came in while i was buried in the grid..

11:45 am

11:45 am

Her bridesmaids didn't have Donny Osmond caps though. She missed a trick there.

11:45 am

Hello, Aloy!

11:46 am

11:46 am

Barf.

11:46 am

Hi Aloy!!

11:46 am

11:46 am

Yes ' I'm a desperate has-been eager for publicity, get me out of the Australian jungle'

11:46 am

monty are you sure its the dress you are looking at ??

11:46 am

Hi, caitlyn... good to see amongst the mania...

11:46 am

11:46 am

11:46 am

Well put, Luc... and diplomatic, too!

11:47 am

11:47 am

LOL monty!!

11:47 am

11:47 am

11:47 am

11:48 am

Oh, Haz to the patois rescue...

11:48 am

copulation, fornication, etc :D

11:48 am

because its really stylistic to do that on national tv

11:48 am

Except Jordan wouldn't know restraint if it jumped up and knocked all her teeth veneers out.

11:48 am

aahhhh yesssss - that's what i thought it meant... i am reassured...

11:49 am

LOL hazel

11:49 am

11:50 am

Why is lightning starting?

11:50 am

11:50 am

Because you're blaspheming against the Pink One?

11:50 am

11:51 am

Hello all

11:51 am

11:51 am

I've just had a thought. If Jordan babbles, would she be upset with us?

11:51 am

fireworks

11:51 am

Yes, montreal. It wasn't three heads Jordan had in that picture.

11:51 am

HA! What are the chances!?

11:51 am

hi peri

11:51 am

She babble all the time, she just has to open her mouth!

11:51 am

hi peri - brb - wtg angelina !!!

11:51 am

She obviously cannot read words longer than "See Spot run" Haz... fear not.

11:51 am

um, to babble one must be able to recognize words and write them down.

11:51 am

Hi peri

11:51 am

YAY angelina!!!! (so it's possible at least)

11:51 am

11:52 am

11:53 am

She's not worth knowing, peri. Tacky model but worthy of much mockery.

11:55 am

oh! that french naughty word IS in the grid! I though Jill was joking last night!

11:55 am

I think montreal is be5/14-ed

11:56 am

He noticed neither head nor dress...

11:56 am

He only had eyes for... must have been the beautiful liles around the border.

11:57 am

LOL Vic !!!

11:57 am

11:59 am

11:59 am

12:00 pm

no VIC, it's her tiara that was blinding me...

12:00 pm

Anyone found any 8s apart from the an8, be8 x2, and ea8?

12:00 pm

be x3 I think

12:00 pm

2 BE8s mm

12:00 pm

There are three be8

12:00 pm

Siocled is "chocolate" -- sounds pretty much like choclit too!

12:00 pm

de8

12:01 pm

st8 - describes the conversation between Jordan and a genius.

12:01 pm

I didnt know that stid, I will have to test the grandchildren with that one

12:01 pm

3 BE8s ? - will keep looking then...

12:01 pm

Or describes vegetables which have been put through a colander

12:02 pm

I keep wanting seren. that's welsh too

12:02 pm

I found one be 8 -- a "plural" of the be 7 verb

12:02 pm

Haz you really have a fixation about jordan today,and she speaks so highly of you

12:02 pm

pr8 - plural of pr7/32. First four letters of a convict (think Cell Block H), and an old fashioned term for before.

12:02 pm

126 left, need another break

12:03 pm

Another be8 is descriptive of that same verb, stidmama.

12:03 pm

be 8 -- wampum males

12:03 pm

whats the other be8? not the 2 together

12:03 pm

the coolest thing about welsh is the way the sounds mutate when the word before it is a certain way. like when cymraeg (Wales) becomes gymraeg...

12:03 pm

be8/60 - males who like sparkly things?

12:03 pm

thanks Haz *looking*

12:04 pm

be8 - almost like the pearly Kings if they used be4 instead of buttons.

12:04 pm

and Bangor becoming Mangor and Fangor

12:04 pm

oh thats a sensible word

12:04 pm

de8 - plural of de6 - to rhyme with the sort of wheel found in a fairground.

12:05 pm

Just a moment for a quickie... the be7 verb? I have no clue!

12:05 pm

???

12:06 pm

one be7s the floor of a hamster abode with hay

12:06 pm

hello ankh! to kind of toss things around a bit (st5) with a be in front

12:06 pm

Right, off I go. Jordan and Peter are coming for tea, so I'd best get it started. I'll be sure to pass on all your best wishes.

phantom - sperm

second the motion, binad is a word LOL

12:51 pm

Autumn, I'm still not having any luck, trying really silly endings... Jean, that's because the sperm delivery mechanism is in the gird.

12:51 pm

12:59 pm

peri, perhaps st + army b****

12:59 pm

ank, think of a broom action past tense

Peri, it's a hard one. It's like if something is standing still, but with a different vowel before final snake.

1:00 pm

diving back...

1:00 pm

Great clue, merci merci Jean!

:-)

1:00 pm

hey, scarlet!!

1:08 pm

Une!! :-)

1:08 pm

pe6,21 the first one please

1:08 pm

Hi, friends - I had a roaring start, too scarlet, now hitting a big wall for the last 107......

you way ahead of me, jbv!!

1:09 pm

I just made lunch, and saw that 136 still want to be found... slowly, slowly now... then I hit a run, JBV... the mysteries of Babblemania...

1:10 pm

dubi, the first one I have (but I haven't looked at the list yet) is pe + do, **, mi + **n Fleming

1:10 pm

finally figured out the st6/18 I needed

1:10 pm

Hello there, Scarlet

1:10 pm

ah ty

1:10 pm

1:10 pm

1:10 pm

Thanks, JB... I always forget that one... I have the 5/12... Hi, peri!! :-)

1:11 pm

I made a large pot of Spanish Rice and homemade cheddar biscuits...

I hate it when laundry gets in the way of babbling

1:11 pm

Awful, autumn!

1:11 pm

I had popcorn with extra melted butter for lunch :-)

1:11 pm

I'm going to drop in a book - warning if anyone needs to cut & paste to save; it's group of 7-letter clues given this am

1:11 pm

cheddar biscuits, yum1

1:11 pm

yum

1:11 pm

hmm, sounds great - I'm just having a giant salad or I will when I find a few more words to satisfy the appetite for babbling

1:12 pm

tr 7 28 is what a new hire at work learning the ropes is tr7 32 is one who succeeded ta 7 36 refers to a dwindling end so 7 32 refers to job of moms & dads who give baths se7 is the extreme se4 ri 7 refers to people who use listerene ra7 is a piratey word - means plunders pi7 is tree stuff you don't want on your hands pr7 [8] sounds like person who wins things, but ends in dried out [deserty word] pa 7 can refer to computer programs [for any cs students, often a project] which puts strings together; brit bum word follows p pa7 is multiple of fr city pa 7 is basket [pack animal/bicycle] or also framework for old fashioned large skirts also sounds like what the [18]49ers were [think of how they worked]

1:12 pm

Nice... peri... one of my sins... butter with anything... **Tossing a few biscuits to Une**

Oh are we boring you now?

2:31 pm

In a manner of speaking, Vi...

Wahey! A third letter greyed ..

2:31 pm

Jordan's front causes her underwear to st6.

2:31 pm

Yes, FMitch, I am clearly far too sophisticated for the likes of you!

2:31 pm

I declare this log to be a jordan free zone with immediate effect.

2:32 pm

**saalaam**

2:32 pm

No ..Four!

I am still missing one from each "I"

2:32 pm

Well, Haz, as someone else once commented in the Babble chat, it's important not too lose touch with the little people.

2:32 pm

That burst of speed has done wonders for you, torgone.

2:32 pm

Go Tor!

2:32 pm

2:33 pm

2:35 pm

Noooooooooooo FM... you can handle ANYthing!!

2:35 pm

2:36 pm

*refreshed* even

2:36 pm

Torgone is the Count!

2:37 pm

Maybe you forgot to import the words from one site to another, peri.... try send words to Babble first.

2:37 pm

I am working on it

2:37 pm

Then, (that takes some time, but it's worth it) send the words to clues.

2:37 pm

I can visualize him in his little padded dressing gown and padded cell.

2:37 pm

Peri, try send words in yellow boxes at top... Oh, Scarlet said that.

2:38 pm

It's hard to type on a padded keyboard ..

2:38 pm

echo, echo, echo... it is a good thing...

2:38 pm

But you're doing terribly well, torgone - all those tiles greyed.

2:39 pm

Almost down to 100 .. sheesh ..

2:40 pm

but he is typing in a high key now!

2:40 pm

You're nearly down to double figures.

2:40 pm

34 here and just not doing well at all.

2:40 pm

82 left and it's become a sidewalk crawl...

2:40 pm

I was going to say something cruel about someone's intelligence being in double figures but she's off topic.

2:41 pm

Must be referring to J, or course, Haz.

2:41 pm

she wouldn't be a member of me5 thats for sure

2:41 pm

Yes, but keep it under your hat. I think we've got away with it.

2:41 pm

2:42 pm

Then you must complete the ensemble, FMitch... here's a designer tinfoil hat to go with it...

2:43 pm

2:45 pm

Your tin foil hat, that is.

2:45 pm

2:48 pm

Way down in the PE*, pair 5,12 and 6,21... 3rd and 4th via lickety... any hints?

2:48 pm

ARRRRGGGH enough already of the big boobie bird

2:48 pm

pe5/12 - a type of sauce?

2:48 pm

the less big boobie bird now

2:49 pm

LOl, FMitch, it seems, has reached her ultimate limit!!

2:49 pm

Haz, thank you, these are before the sauce word

2:49 pm

After the things you write with.

2:49 pm

Yes, smaller of front but gleamier of teeth.

2:49 pm

I think she still qualifies as big.

2:49 pm

LOL

2:49 pm

pe5/12 - pe plus what you do to a book, minus last letter

2:50 pm

Seriously, Ata... I thought the Cat Lady was bizarre... this one is pathetic...

2:50 pm

Txs Haz!!

2:50 pm

Then for pe6/21 put an extra vowel in towards the end of pe5/12

2:50 pm

ANOTHER vowel?

2:50 pm

got it!

2:51 pm

Cat lady if its the one I am thinking of was just darn scarey

2:51 pm

Yes indeed. There's a serious meeting of vowels in that word.

2:51 pm

oh yes, Scarlet. You feel sorry for Cat Lady. She's just ... a self-promoting little tart

2:51 pm

They flocked together for safety.

2:51 pm

well I am still off one but I should be okay cause the lower number is in Babble and I am getting headache looking for one missing word

2:51 pm

::: is afraid to say she liked "Catwoman" film :::

2:51 pm

Right... this babe is beyond any feeling but "iCK"

2:51 pm

who is Cat Lady?

2:51 pm

We don't feel sorry for the person we're not talking about.

2:51 pm

Poor Peri...

2:51 pm

Jocelyn Wildenstein? Wilden something

2:52 pm

hi peri

2:52 pm

wrong, the lower number is in

2:52 pm

Could someone plz remind me how to change my flickr pics on my babble profile page (the one you get when you click on my icon?)

2:52 pm

Babble Expert :(

2:52 pm

Yes, I think that's the name.

si6/21?

2:52 pm

Well I will proceed and see what happens nearer the end

oops, that's 6/18

2:52 pm

Glad you're making headway, peri... better than it was!

2:52 pm

I need a lesson too, Movieman. Haven't hooked up my flickr acct here

2:52 pm

si6/18 - a gentleman's title with western exuberance

2:53 pm

1 left

2:53 pm

I thought it just showed the photos you most recently uploaded to Flickr, that's all it ever does for me.

2:54 pm

well I wish I had somone to blame it one

2:54 pm

Blame FM!

2:54 pm

FM steps forward

2:54 pm

Go directly to FMitch, peri... you should know that by now... she did it.

2:54 pm

Isn't she good?

2:54 pm

having trouble with your clue Haz

2:54 pm

nah, I won't blame you

2:54 pm

Squares shoulders and stands ready

2:54 pm

FM, you get blamed for everything else

2:54 pm

but thanks so much for the offer

2:55 pm

Pavlovian response time is spectacular, FM!!

2:55 pm

deb - a knight's title, but extended - the way the cowboys would have said it 'Yes si****!

2:55 pm

FM is so strong and brave! Such a lovely, noble scapegoat she is!

2:55 pm

LOL Scarlet

Thanks Haz Must have tried every combination except that one.

2:55 pm

thank you:)

2:55 pm

:-)

2:55 pm

I think it's the way you say it before slapping someone across the face with your glove, southern honor style.

2:55 pm

You're welcome.

2:56 pm

Give peri big hug instead then

2:56 pm

Speaking of which, I had a nice lesson in "Slappers" yesterday, in the grid... never knew what that meant before such a graphic description by a few ladies...

2:57 pm

I won't even ask then, Scarlet.

2:57 pm

You never realised how uneducated you were until you started Babble, did you, Scarlet?

2:57 pm

Exactly, Haz... and I am growing exponentially, daily... LOL

2:57 pm

Hello. Does anyone want to go up to the shed and feed the rabbit and the guinea pigs for me? It's cold out. I want to stay in the warm...

2:57 pm

Your eyes are being opened to the wonderment of the varieties of the female.

2:58 pm

Thanks all the same, Jacula but I think I'll stay in the warm.

2:58 pm

Thank you for the offer, Jacula... but, I still have 73 words to find.

2:58 pm

sa6,21 anyone?

2:58 pm

Evening Jacs!

2:58 pm

hi Jac!

2:58 pm

hi all :)

2:58 pm

::: is thinking about what it might mean ::: ::: blushes ::::

2:58 pm

thanks FM

2:58 pm

Oh, Haz, I never tire of the myriad refinements.. Hi, Kaz!

2:58 pm

Hello, Jac.

2:59 pm

did I see elderberry wine, never had it but it might make me feel better about the situation here

2:59 pm

sa6/21 - an Eastern official incorporating something you would use to capture something.

2:59 pm

never heard the term *slappers*

2:59 pm

Ahem, refinement and slappers - not what you'd normally think of.

2:59 pm

*Sigh* Guess I'll have to go and do it them. Wanders off with 77 still to find, muttering, 'Thought they were my friends!' to self...

2:59 pm

We're fair weather friends.

2:59 pm

I have the si5/10 for mister but not finding a 6 ..

2:59 pm

... leaving a grid word behind. LOL

3:00 pm

LOL, Haz... peri... I also learned a new expression: muffin-top jeans... still don't know what THAT means...

3:00 pm

si and a double helping of a consonant balanced with a double helping of a vowel

3:00 pm

Three se* words following the famous store se5 12, + 21, se5 10 haaallllp

3:00 pm

3:01 pm

You know how a muffin spills over the top of the paper case.....

3:01 pm

LOL - picture a muffin in a tin - you know how it bluges over the top? That's what muffin top jeans means

3:01 pm

Please share, P2

3:01 pm

Muffin top? IMagine a pair of trousers, too small for the lady. IMagine what happens to the fat, pushed upwards. It looks like a muffin in its case.

3:01 pm

hi scarlet

3:01 pm

haz not getting that sa clue

3:01 pm

I know that term, muffin top,

3:01 pm

LOL, Cad... I get it... it's the gut, not the jeans...

3:01 pm

Right. The jeans make the muffin top.

3:01 pm

Thank you Haz and all for the enlightenment...

3:01 pm

3:03 pm

Hello lynxxx!

3:03 pm

se6/21 is the plural.

3:03 pm

3:03 pm

Dubi, dubi doo!! Yahoo for you!!

3:04 pm

Scarlet what gets me is when they wear them too low

3:04 pm

Marc - you can scroll back through the chat log by pressing the square button. You've not got a hope of a list of clues other than lickety's babble clues, accessed through the site bottom left.

3:04 pm

and you see way more than you want to see

3:04 pm

::: now has mental image of Dubi in Flintstone car :::

3:08 pm

3:08 pm

Good night FMItch - have a relaxing evening.

3:08 pm

3:08 pm

Haz, thank you again, yay, got 'em

3:08 pm

can't even imagine

3:08 pm

Goodbye, FM!!!!!!

3:08 pm

Great, Ankh, you're doing well.

3:09 pm

Like this one, P2H, only moreso... LOL

3:09 pm

I just feel so braindead! This grid is/was too big.

3:09 pm

you're welcome Ankh bye lynxxx, Haz, Vi Scarlet torg, John Boy,, Maryellen, JimBob, Grandpa ...

3:09 pm

For me.

3:09 pm

There have been just a couple of high 400's grids.

3:09 pm

I'm at 226 and I'm positively stuck

3:09 pm

I want to quit, but with only 23 to go...

3:09 pm

Oh, you CANNOT stop now, Ankh...

3:10 pm

Go, Ankh, go!

3:10 pm

wasn't there one over 500 while Haz was in Sth Africa?

3:10 pm

Think of the pretty fireworks and the adulation of the crowd.

3:10 pm

Even you called it a sidewalk crawl! Re7,32? anyone?

3:10 pm

I think you're right, lynxxx.

3:10 pm

I didn't see any that high, lynxxx...

3:10 pm

I have never played one that big, but I think there has been at least one over 500.

3:10 pm

Haz, it's true, I'm haning in cuz I've never seen fireworks in expert... are they special?

3:10 pm

re7/32 - a plural for a type of meal or feast

3:10 pm

Yes, A... but I won't concede anything!!

3:11 pm

Well, it's that you get a video in addition to the fireworks.

3:11 pm

No, Ankh... not any more special in Expert... the treat is the video

3:11 pm

Oooh, where does vid show?

3:11 pm

It pops up at the side (right hand)

3:11 pm

type of feast...hmmm...

3:12 pm

ANkh - the feast brings in a bit of history...

3:12 pm

fireworks

3:12 pm

Okay, well, maybe this afternoon, then...

3:12 pm

Yay, Pigeonman!

3:12 pm

Well done pigeonman!

3:13 pm

Hooray for Pigeon !!

does anyone use an anagrammer to finish this puzzle?

3:13 pm

You don't have to do anything, except shut off the fireworks when the video window slides open, Ankh... if the fireworks run concurrent with the video, it slows the images.

3:13 pm

Yahoo for the 2Million Point Man!!

3:13 pm

Oh, Haz, you are goooooood! Txs!

3:14 pm

what's an anagrammer?

3:14 pm

You're welcome - but have to go! Hope you finish with a flourish.

3:14 pm

My grammer's name was Rose.

3:14 pm

is that a sw program Espritd

3:14 pm

Bye Haz!!

a program that helps you find words

3:14 pm

Thank you thank you!!

3:14 pm

lol Ankh

3:14 pm

heh heh Lynx

3:14 pm

Bye Haz

3:15 pm

Goodbye, Haz!!!!!

3:15 pm

Until another day, Haz!

3:16 pm

I've never seen anyone talk about it Espritd - what would be the point. Although there is something on the net that gives all the words in a few minutes - don't know that it is still being updated

3:16 pm

ar5/16?

3:17 pm

AR + Ms. Harry's first name, nicked for short

3:17 pm

Really weird word, Arwenn. AR + short form of young women at coming-out ball

3:17 pm

Yowsa! I found my mistake. now have 77 words left in babble and in babble expert, whew!!!

3:17 pm

Better clue, Ankh

the point is . . . this is hard work!!! :-D I don't how anyone finds nearly 400 words, especially ones that are freaky

3:17 pm

Never heard of it, Lynxxx

3:18 pm

go peri...go peri

3:18 pm

Came up about a year or so ago, sort of defeats the whole purpose doesn't it...thats why I wondered if it was being maintained..can even rememeber the name

3:19 pm

Well, I'd rather beg my fellow babblers.

3:19 pm

Hi Carlee

3:19 pm

I still have 65, kattie... have been yakking too much, but then, the sublime became the ridiculous... as usual!! :-)

3:20 pm

Because the other sounds kind of.. mechanical. Pointless.

3:20 pm

hi ankh and good morning lynxxx

3:20 pm

lynx your dog is beautiful

3:20 pm

3:22 pm

3:23 pm

3rd ar6/18?

I am using LIcketys babble expert and its a bit lagy at my end

3:23 pm

Who can absorb the fact that one finds 331 words and 65 are still lurking.... No, lynxxx... I am hunting...

Natts it the Marilyn Manson Antichrist Superstar album cover.

hi monkey

3:23 pm

hello everyone. just came in hoping it would be a small grid, but it is too late to start it now methinks!!!

3:23 pm

Cold, kattie...rained heavily last night, thank goodness. OUr drought is severe.

3:24 pm

mo...you can do it!

3:24 pm

I've found 231... lucky I have a day off today or I'd be sweating

3:24 pm

oh, congrats scarlet well done on finishing!!!

3:24 pm

Mo, it's horrid

Hi mo

3:24 pm

OK Scarlet I withdraw my congrats then

how can any woman in her right mind get into the same bed as marilyn Manson?

3:24 pm

Hi Mo

3:24 pm

LOL... I'll wrap them in tissue and save them for later, lynxxx.

3:24 pm

Does he sleep with women?

3:24 pm

Or men, either?

sure he does, he even married one

3:24 pm

lol ankh

but they are divorced

3:24 pm

we had rain all day yesterday....snow today....

Dita von Teese

3:25 pm

Ej... apparently someone who likes men/? with two differntly colored eyes...

Yes and he was married to Dita Von Tease and went out with Rose M

3:25 pm

sunny and mild here today

He doesn't have 2 different coloured eyes. He is highly intellegent.

he wears colored contacts

3:25 pm

my sister did a good job of changing the weather before she came to visit

3:26 pm

Scarlet ...I dont think so!!! Ank ... I agree with you ,it looks horrid1

and he may be highly intelligent but he is also highly ugly

3:26 pm

what does different colored eyes have to do with intelligent?

3:26 pm

We will get some snow before the end of the week, kat... I am tired of winter, and my winter would be like your spring...

3:26 pm

jean - to each their own, some people find him attractive

blechhhhhhh

Arween COntacts.

3:27 pm

LOL, mo... Ankh and I have had an ongoing difference of opinion on this grid...

3:27 pm

i know. but you compared the eye color (whether real or false) to intelligence (or lack of)

3:27 pm

i liked this one... just moved steadily along....didn't feel like the usual 400 word marathon

3:28 pm

Sorry, had to answer door again. Manson: yes, fake contacts, called novelty or theatrical. Yes, very smart, also very thoughtful on censorshp and violence issues when speaking (not singing). WANTS to look ugly, has said so.

3:28 pm

I know, kattie... if I weren't having such a hoot with some arguably sane women, I'd be long done, but they have pulled me into the Vortex.

3:28 pm

does anyone know much about current children's literature?

3:28 pm

NO.

3:28 pm

:S

3:28 pm

:: whimpers at Carlee :: then... there's an in5,12 I cannot get, right before the one about just sitting there... haaaalllp

3:29 pm

What do you want to know, carleekat?

3:29 pm

anyway! 3rd ar6/18, anyone? :3

3:29 pm

not young children's, no... my kids are pretty near adult

I find him the kind of person that i would want to have a chat with and have done so since i was 16. This was the first concert i went to as an over 18 year old

have you seen his artwork Herein?

3:29 pm

Infernal, he's a really good interview.

No i didn't Arwenn. I full stopped my sentance.

3:29 pm

ir+ h***es ='s hell

3:30 pm

ank, would that be the one where you are incapable? or in***?

3:30 pm

Arwen, what police do.

3:30 pm

in5.12 to be totally useless at something

3:30 pm

I just everyone brave enough to attempt it today ... THE VERY BEST OF LUCK.

Yes i have seen his artwork and his interview with Letterman was a crack up

3:30 pm

AGGHGHGHG yes, LadyNatts, it would! Thanks!

3:30 pm

ahhh. thanks ankh. I wasn't looking in that direction lol

3:30 pm

Mo, don't let me chase you off.

3:30 pm

Lynxx, thanks also!

His Bibliography is fascinating

3:31 pm

my daughter JUST got turned on to reading by one book..i want to fins another book similar...

3:31 pm

find* even

3:31 pm

What book was it?

3:31 pm

google it, carlee

3:31 pm

kat, what is it?

3:31 pm

Ank no worries .... I just think it is too late to start now.

3:31 pm

Manson irritates me a little with his medical fetish. I have to live the way I do; it grates on me that he volunteers for it because he likes the "grotesque effect" of wearing medical devices on stage.

3:32 pm

the name of this book is secret by pseudonymous bosch

3:32 pm

Well, Mo, I tell you, the first 100 words go quickly! :)

go to amazon dot.com and put in the book, it will tell you "people who bought this book also liked . . ."

3:32 pm

book sellers online often tell you "others who chose this book also chose..."

3:32 pm

LIke Heironomous Bosch?

3:32 pm

Bad spelling, I know.

3:33 pm

Okay. I'm getting about 1 word every ten minutes. Not acceptable! Wah!

3:33 pm

I'm not familiar with that one. But amazon also has postings of book lists by people, and they can be interesting to browse through.

Ankh that was one or two albums and i know of Doms that have clinets with a medical fetish.

3:33 pm

what about the other 290 odd though!!!

3:33 pm

Heronymous... hieroynomous... oh, blast it...

3:33 pm

i hear ya ankh

I don't know what his medical fetish is all about

3:33 pm

There, there, Ankh...tis better than no words at all... half a loaf, yadda yadda yadda

Esprit there is many a fetish out there. Its something that someone gets turned on by that thing: shoes, being a baby, being treated like a dog and on and on

3:34 pm

Yeah, I know that there are people like that who need it because they're special needs people. And I know that he's catering to that audience, and all that. But it still grates on me, an unhealthy person, that he, a healthy young person, wants to pretend to be unhealthy for the backwards glamor of it. I wouldn't censor him, but it gives me the grumps.

I know what a fetish it, I said I didn't know what HIS was

3:35 pm

be8/60?

3:35 pm

Manson's medical thing may or may not be sexual for him, though it sure is for some people. From the mild "playing doctor" or "playing nurse" stuff, up to people who want to be enclosed in casts to have sex, etc.

3:35 pm

42 left, taking another break

Esprit sorry its very early for me

3:36 pm

Jean, Manson likes to oh, wear bandages, pretend to be odd-eyed, wear big metal braces on an arm or leg or neck or whatever.

3:36 pm

interesting chat here though

np, so what is his?

3:36 pm

interesting chat here though

Ank according to his bio he had a very strange Grandfather and a strict religous upbringing.

3:36 pm

be8.60 compound. Guys who wear costume jewellery

3:36 pm

bbl

3:36 pm

It's just rather sad that he's so desperate for attention. But *shrug* he's certainly smart enough to know that shock value sells albums, and that's what he's all about.

3:37 pm

MY fetish right now is getting help with the second dr5,12, the 6, 21, and the (oh, this is pitiful) the dr 4,5!

Once again that was for a couple of albums Ankh

3:37 pm

dr4.5 uses double vowel

3:37 pm

Yeah, and INfernal, I don't know if you saw, but I do say he's very smart, very thoughtful, very well-spoken in interviews, esp on topics of censorship and of violence.

3:38 pm

Lynxxxeee, thankeee

3:38 pm

dr5.12 (may be) odd spelling of past tense of having clothes on

3:38 pm

I will leave you all to it, and have an early night for once. Good luck everyone and good night.

3:38 pm

no, before that one... after the pipe that carries away water

I don't get that be8 Lynxie

3:39 pm

lynx - so the first half of the word would be the be4/7? can you clue just the second half (my brain is having a hard time here lol)

3:39 pm

Seeya Mo!

3:39 pm

dr5.12 if something is really boring it is dr***y

3:39 pm

On a night so dread and dr***...\

3:39 pm

Arwen, back half of word is human males

3:39 pm

be5, arwenn

3:39 pm

byee Ank.

3:40 pm

arwennn - be4.7 plural & guys

3:40 pm

Oh, Scarlet, you glorious poetess, txs!

3:40 pm

use the plural and then add guys

3:40 pm

ahhhh got it

3:40 pm

thanks

I don't got it

Ankh a lot of his stuff means something to me thats why i picked the album. I didn't do it to create controversy or be a drama llama

3:41 pm

Oh, Infernal, no, I like his work! I do!

and this grid is starting to irk me

no controversy, just sharing opinions

3:41 pm

how can there be so many words I am missing?

3:41 pm

And I really do like the interviews he's given on censorship; he and I are totallly the same side.

The Antichrist Superstar album means a lot to me. I was the ugly fat kid in school, the strange one that know one liked and the first over 18 concert i went to. Yes Ankh i agree

Natts this grid eats the words that is all there is too it

3:43 pm

lol

3:43 pm

there are five me* words prior to the French poop - I will sing and dance for any help

3:43 pm

ME + Bevis and Butthead often celebrate the go***

I am the one that is a sucker and gets to 7 before listing but today not a snow balls chance

3:44 pm

cat sounds

3:44 pm

Then there is the genius club

mmeehhaa you said butt

3:44 pm

Then the kittie sounds

3:44 pm

I still don't get that be8 one

3:46 pm

I'm out of the me's.

3:46 pm

i'm just not good at these, 288 words left. I'm either not determined enough or not smart enough or both..

3:47 pm

EJ... think of what is thrown off the floats at Mardi Gras... plural that and add grown boys

HI ELSH

3:47 pm

Jean, the little shiny things you sew onto clothes or put on a string, plural + human males, pl

3:47 pm

HI, Elsh.

damn! That's a word?

3:47 pm

hey :)

and thanks

3:47 pm

Hi, Elsh, sure you are...but this one is just teeeeedious.

3:47 pm

LOL... glad you found it.

3:48 pm

hello

3:48 pm

HARPJANE! HI!

3:48 pm

Hi, harp.

I still have 166 left and am ready for a strait jacket

3:48 pm

oops, gotta go! (bbl)

3:49 pm

scarlet, your icon, when viewed tiny like on chat... looks positively .... um... pornographic

HI Harp

3:49 pm

hi harp!

3:49 pm

LadyNads, cut it out! heh heh, heh heh-heh

3:49 pm

LadyN... I hadn't considered that... It looks very sensuous, yes... but porno? Hmmmm

3:50 pm

sorry,but it does!

Lady, you must really love Georgia O'Keefe then

3:50 pm

Poor Ramsey Lewis...

3:50 pm

actually Espritd - you wouldn't be damed if you used be8.60 they are guys paid to pray for your soul

Yep Scarlet it does. I just notice so i am captian obvious girl.

3:50 pm

okay, sensuous works. I had to click on it to see the real image (which looks nothing like what I imaged from the chat icon)

no kidding? in what culture?

3:51 pm

Wow... your perspectives are just a tad different than my intentions...h mmmm

3:51 pm

Moonwoof suggested it was catholic I think

3:51 pm

Georgia O'Keeffe is my heroine!

3:51 pm

Scarlet, Ramsey was a pretty hot guy, don't think he'd mind...

I'm Catholic and I never heard of it

3:52 pm

that's the problem! I was brought up sort-of catholic

3:52 pm

Yep, Ankh... he'd be flattered ...

3:52 pm

there..ordered her 3 more books of similar types..i LOVE amazon

3:52 pm

phalic symbols follow me everywhere

3:53 pm

Sure, they were the ones who said the rosary over the dead, get it? During vigils?

OK, the definition is right, but it doesn't say what religion or culture. Don't think it's Catholic

3:53 pm

Jean! Rosary be***!!

3:53 pm

Thus, be8!

3:53 pm

Or do you just see them everywhere Lady ;-)

3:53 pm

Good going, kattie... glad you got them for J.

3:53 pm

the male humanS who use rosary be***

3:54 pm

possibly... this is the first time on babble, though

3:54 pm

:: nods with katie about Lady's symbolic pursuit ::

3:54 pm

yay... internet is back.. was unceremoniously terminated this morning.. whew, time to finish up.. hi Scarlet, katie, Lady, Ankh, Jean.. et al...

Natts you just have a dirty mind

Ankh, I know rosary be***, I'm saying never heard this term that's in the grid

3:55 pm

Hi, Alyoisius... whoops, no gender icon for you?

3:55 pm

Aloy... just in time to vindicate my icon... it has been perceived as, er, pornographic...

3:55 pm

be7/52?

3:55 pm

LOL

3:55 pm

Huh? lemme take a look, Scarlet..

3:55 pm

Jean, I bet I haven't heard it more than two or three times in my whole life... think the custom died out by 1940's or so...?

3:56 pm

*is about to fall off her chair*

Hi ALoy

3:56 pm

hi all ! - back to finish ! - nice icon Scarlet ...

3:56 pm

hi aloy

3:56 pm

You'll have to read back, Aloy... Lady is a stirpot today...

HI Monteral

3:56 pm

LOL, Lucien.. not you too, dear?

3:56 pm

pornographic????

3:57 pm

Aloy... it's not pornographic when you actually click to see the image... but on chat .. the mini-image threw me for a loop

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bedesmen

3:57 pm

no scarlet - you know my mind doesn't work that way...hehehe...

3:57 pm

just looks like a lovely sun goddess to me, Scarlet... or someone who got caught in the gold spray paint machine exhaust

this had a good definition

3:57 pm

::finally finishes co's::

3:57 pm

hi herin !

3:58 pm

Ankhorite.. both my gender and my flag are lost somewhere in cyberspace, dunno why...

died out in 1863

3:58 pm

go Ankh go !

3:58 pm

Well, Luc and Aloy have done me in! Thank you both... and Luc, of course your mind doesn't work that way...

3:58 pm

be7/52? anyone...?

3:58 pm

I'm sorry

3:58 pm

be+ threw about

3:59 pm

got it. thanks carlee

3:59 pm

you know me scarlet: I see beauty everywhere - in this case, a beautiful sun goddess...

3:59 pm

Whoa, Jean, way before end of 1930s! I think I saw it in old noir novels; maybe the authors were reaching back in time for effect.

3:59 pm

scarlet, I didn't mean to insult ... I guess I just have a dirty mind, as herin suggested

3:59 pm

( keep working with for the 2 8's )

3:59 pm

the be 8 appears in Keats's poem, "The Eve of St. Agnes." If I recall correctly, he's and ancient one saying his be 5s--Just popping in on my holiday and saw the discussion--hi, everyone.

:-)

3:59 pm

For what LadyN? This is such a wide-open forum... and I am the one who couldn't get the word "castrated" to be accepted by the grid... all three times I tried.

3:59 pm

hi miranda !

3:59 pm

LOL

4:00 pm

Thanks for the lesson, hmm! Hey, do Episcopalians use any kind of rosary be***?

4:01 pm

4:01 pm

LadyN...you haven't found it yet? I guess you are more visual...

4:01 pm

4:01 pm

Right, Aloy... a word is a word is a word...

Umm... maybe? LIckety browser? I guess?

4:17 pm

if you are using the lickety explorer, that is based on internet explorer. Perhaps you just need to download the latest flash for IE --

4:17 pm

Have you seen my icon flicka fotos in the past

Its about half way down my back

Hi Book

4:31 pm

Its just stinking hot here

4:32 pm

hi book

howdee lilliann

4:32 pm

A change in hair style is sometimes a nice boost -

4:32 pm

i wish i could have hair like yours...always had to have it short as i have fine, thin hair

I wouldn't do it, herin. Mine is past my waist. Last time I cut it was nov 2005

4:33 pm

try layers and high/low lights herin, i think you'd look really good, along with the new body

4:33 pm

I recently had my hair cut (from below the shoulders to just about chin line) and I got many compliments at work,

4:33 pm

put it in a ponytail!

4:33 pm

i got my hair cut recently

4:33 pm

Half way through which is enough for me, see you all tomorrow :-)

Well maybe ill just do a librarian hair bun today

4:33 pm

people told me I looked "ten years younger" - made me think I should have gotten it cut even shorter, maybe take 20 years off!

4:33 pm

bye katie

womp should be a word . . .

4:35 pm

Lady, I have had my hair long for many years...until last year...it got tucked inside my jeans, accidentally for many more times than I can remember... I had it cut last March, and it saves my shoulders a lot of work. I loved the versatility of long hair, but shorter is easier to keep.

4:35 pm

sa and mouse catcher

4:36 pm

got it thx

Wow Scarlet. I know that GranmaTerri grows her hair for locks of love

4:36 pm

yvw

4:36 pm

I always contributed mine, too, Lady...it's red, so it was considered a real gift.

4:36 pm

have some cut off herin as it is quite long but keep it just past your shoulders atlesast

4:37 pm

atleast even

Oh WOW scarlet. I loved having red hair.

4:37 pm

se5/10 right after plural cars please

4:37 pm

and layered like pink said, that would look nice

4:37 pm

I loved the long braids, the high pony tails, the upsweep for formal events with tendrils curled lightly past my ears... so, it was a real sacrifice, but now I love it.

I am so sorry Krista

5:06 pm

luw much more fun then sitting here doing this grid right?lol

Krista don't blame yourself. Please. These things happen. She had her time

5:07 pm

don't be too hard on yourself krista. least you would have. my mother won't take sick pets to vet and insists on having pets.

5:08 pm

Thank you, really. I forgot how crappy it feels to lose a pet. We are allergic to everything, so haven't had a (mammal) pet for years.

5:09 pm

yeah, it's difficult. so sorry for your loss.

5:09 pm

Hi, Owl. ((((Krista))))) It hurts, hurts, hurts, no matter how small they are.

I have to go i have to get organised for moving (again)

5:09 pm

Oh, Krista... I feel so bad for you. It's hard, but you cannot blame yourself.

5:09 pm

fine ty mom, sorry went to get a drink and checked that the doors were locked as hubby gone to bed and surprise surprise they weren't....so much for the men being *the protectors of the household*

sorry to hear this, krista.

5:09 pm

I cried for two weeks when my tarantula died...

5:09 pm

Krista, your picture of Cuddles is adorable

5:09 pm

I have to log off again... bbl to help clue.

5:10 pm

Later, Ankh.

5:10 pm

I bet that bothers you, Elsh! If you're going to have them, you're obligated to take care of them.

5:10 pm

lol lilll

5:10 pm

krista, you can't blame yourself

5:10 pm

lol Lilliann, I know what you mean.

5:10 pm

bbl hubby is leaving for work. gonna say bye!

5:10 pm

It does bother me a lot...but what can you do. At least there are people who do care about animals, like you and me and many other people here.

help with the first st6/18??

5:10 pm

{{Joanne}} hello

Scarlet that is so cute. Being upset over a pet spider. (shudder but hey its a pet)

5:11 pm

Scarlet...you don't strike me as a tarantula person!

5:11 pm

5:11 pm

HIs name was Chauncy and he was an amazing creature, Lady... smart and funny too.

5:11 pm

got it

5:11 pm

ooh, not my sort of pet scar, i like something i can cuddle!!

5:11 pm

Pablo, don't put a ST on your brain trying to find the answer.

5:12 pm

I can't imagine being attached to a spider, but I can understand too because losing my rats gives me such heartache and many people can't understand loving rats.

5:12 pm

But, lil, Chauncy loved to cuddle and he "purred" when I pet him over his eyes...

5:12 pm

{{Scarlet}} hello, sorry about Chauncy

5:12 pm

I loved my rats, Elsh...

OK i must away Laters

5:12 pm

5:12 pm

Thanks Mom, she was very cute. :) Thanks Owl and lilli. The kids are already asking about another, but I said you need to allow grieving time!

5:12 pm

oh gosh i went away for awhile came back and the grid didnt get any smaller...sigh

5:13 pm

be 5/16 plus grown boys

5:13 pm

I think I am losing one of mine to cancer. Very typical. I've had all girls. I take them to the vet but there's not much they can do.

5:13 pm

really?i'm sorry for your loss scar, but i must say spiders or reptiles aren't my thing

5:13 pm

I am fascinated now, Scarlet...he purred? Wow.

5:13 pm

think of it as a new grid, sadie... for me, it's only 125 words... that's do-able

5:13 pm

Owl, the first BE is the thing that gets thrown off the floats at Mardi Gras.. and everyone grabs them.. a bling bling... then add grown up boys

5:14 pm

That's what I tried to tell myself, Elsh..there was nothing noticably wrong with her, so prob nothing they could do. Sorry yours is sick!

5:14 pm

hi lady

5:14 pm

hi kaz

5:14 pm

Pablo, It is a word that sounds like inertia of a sort ST + a warped spelling of the donkey cousin

5:14 pm

lilli... I had GeeP (Guinea pig) and cats for years

5:14 pm

Thanks.. it's heartbreaking but I'll get through it as I've always done. Just have to give her all the love I can while I can.

5:15 pm

You'll find going without (Babble) quite time-liberating, Lil.

7:25 pm

i have panic attacks without babble!! LOL

7:26 pm

So, you know what's really involved in the job then. mind you, Lil, if your chap's an international driver he's probably got a much better unit (front part of lorry) than mine ever gets.

7:26 pm

ee

Hello to all this is one big grid

7:43 pm

7:43 pm

I think I've got 'the dreaded lurgey' - my head keeps hurting right in the centre and my nose keeps running. Not like a 'cold' as such, though.:((

7:44 pm

Para-flu is what we call it. It is a respiratory virus that causes viral laryngotracheobronchitis==raspy voice, sore throat and cough.

7:45 pm

Good evening to my fellow babblers!How is everyone?

7:45 pm

Yes LIL i think that quick flow is all im up for LOl

7:45 pm

HI Min

7:45 pm

hi, min!

7:45 pm

Min, how are you feeling?

7:45 pm

Scrabbs - if that's what I've got My Other Half will call the raspy voice, sexy, like Susan St. James used to speak.

7:45 pm

hi min

7:45 pm

People are discussing their guest pathogens, Minveryork.

7:45 pm

hope you feel better soon jac

he said it lasts TWO WEEKS! (have been sick for 10 days)

7:45 pm

nope that wasn't the pa 5.12 I need. I need the one just before the city please

7:46 pm

Hi, Min. Coming down with something or other here, methinks.

7:46 pm

I'm doing well, thank you. Slept most of the day today

7:46 pm

Brenda Vaccaro voice, jac!

7:46 pm

Pam - no idea who Brenda Thingey is. LOL

7:46 pm

I think those might be smokers' voices.

lurgey sounds much more exotic

7:46 pm

oh, good min

7:46 pm

Not raspy like Janis Joplin, I guess?

7:46 pm

I'm so sorry to hear that Jacula.Hope it's not too bad

7:46 pm

i had something like that for 10 days jac, just after i got rid of my chest infection!!

7:47 pm

She was in some tv shows here years ago...

7:47 pm

Scrabbs - you're probably right.

7:47 pm

the pa5 before the city is what is done with an apple, rhymes with groups of 2

7:47 pm

can anyone clue me on that pa 5/12 before the city?

7:47 pm

can anyone clue me on that pa 5/12 before the city?

7:47 pm

can anyone clue me on that pa 5/12 before the city?

7:47 pm

No, like Susan St James, only a bit deeper

7:47 pm

In medicine we refer to all of it generically as "The Viral Crud."

7:47 pm

change the second vowel, ruru

7:47 pm

perhaps you mean the one before that...

7:48 pm

ruru wants the pa5/12 before the city, people!

7:48 pm

can it be = I only have two left but I cannot see them at all, please help - first one is the last tr - tr 5/18

7:48 pm

Guess it was not a good day to sleep most of the day with such a huge grid.Getting a very late start here.

7:48 pm

as opposed to the bacterial crud, scrabs?

7:48 pm

Oh well, pam. The two women I can imitate accurately are Marlene Dietrich and Kiki Dee. Both smokers, methinks.:(

7:48 pm

ruru, I have all the p's and the one before the city is what one does to peel apples,

7:48 pm

JBV, you must be nearly psychotic at this point.

7:48 pm

2 before city ends like band *** Speedwagon

7:48 pm

8-(, jac!

7:48 pm

then the pa 5/12 next to that one

7:48 pm

hi min - I'm only about a half hour ahead of you - my first 100 or so have gone pretty fast!

7:48 pm

there's one right before that which is a swimwear item, you wear it over a bathing suit

7:49 pm

Yes, Pam--most respiratory illnesses are viral.

7:49 pm

Ruru - either plural of te 3rd pa4.5 or the next is a sarong - 3rd pa4.5 & vowel

7:49 pm

bingo that was it ... thank you nDan

7:49 pm

bingo that was it ... thank you nDan

7:51 pm

Hi, Scrabbler. No word on tests. Went to a hematologist today.

JBV, I don't know if it's the last one, but I have a tr5/18 that's sounds like the opposite of false with an s on the end.

7:51 pm

I just got one all on my own! :)

7:51 pm

I looked at the chat log there and the times aren't in order.I mean the times of when messages are posted

7:52 pm

Hi Mirandpan!

7:52 pm

7:52 pm

What did that MD say, Jellen?

7:52 pm

No,I know what wordsplay is. I like word twist better

7:52 pm

Hi, Scrabble--did I tell you I was ordained on Jan 12????

Babs1, http://www.wordtwist.org/gameover5.php is the link to Word Twist. I like it because it tells you whats kinds of words you type in like wide, common, rare,and ultra rare. I do not use the chat lounge in it

8:09 pm

wrong country - sorry-late---italian greenish

8:09 pm

Ah, miranda. I thought Catholic.

8:09 pm

have you finished the grid TO?

8:09 pm

8:10 pm

thanks lynxxx got it now

Kathy DiV?

8:10 pm

yw Ruru

8:10 pm

Maybe in a future life I can be a priest. For now, my alter ego remains Sister Mary Pediatrica.

8:10 pm

Catholics don't ordain women yet, Jac--we have since the 0's, but was very controversial.

8:11 pm

--since the 70's

scrabs, you would give up medicaine for the priesthood?

8:11 pm

hello

8:11 pm

Hi Harp

8:11 pm

Hello, harp.

8:11 pm

Or--Scrabs--you could do both. Might be in your lifetime, you know.

8:12 pm

Hi, harp

8:12 pm

course she would, the priesthood is much less messy.

8:12 pm

wb harp

8:12 pm

Not so sure about that, Hursh!

8:12 pm

Fireworks!

8:12 pm

Greetings, hurshy

8:12 pm

Congrats, Owl! Yes, I have seriously considered it--I have thought about switching to the Episcopal Church so I could be ordained as mirandapan has done.

8:12 pm

Congrats Merk!

8:12 pm

wtg Merk!

8:12 pm

Hiya Hursh

8:13 pm

wtg merk!!

8:13 pm

Yahooo Merk!

8:13 pm

Scrabbs - I guess it comes down to how hands on you want to be in the end.

8:13 pm

you don't see priests sticking thermometers in kids bums, do you?? i mean, sometimes they stick things in there, but it's cause they want to, and it's highly frowned upon.

8:13 pm

Well done, Merk.

8:13 pm

Yay merk!!!!!!!!!!

8:13 pm

Well, messy in a spiritual sort of way. then.

hurshy - that's disgusting.

8:14 pm

I'm off - see you all later

how DARE you denigrate someone's religion like that?

8:14 pm

pi 7 clue

8:14 pm

please

8:14 pm

hursh! That's only because the Draconian rules about celibacy still apply. It's an unnatural state and not one I've ever yet found advocated in the Book.

8:14 pm

well, it's not much pulicized, but the married priests who objected to female ordination were able to convert & retain status

8:14 pm

wait, where did the denigrating come in?

8:15 pm

i said it was frowned upon.

8:15 pm

bye lyn

what the hell do y ou THINK it is?

8:15 pm

Were able to convert to Catholicism, nDanLia?

8:15 pm

hursh - I think your honesty may have ruffled some feathers. Mine aren't ruffled, btw.

8:15 pm

pi 7 stuff from pi4 you don't want on your hands

8:16 pm

yes; a while ago

8:16 pm

and while i don't find priestly celibacy necessary or even beneficial, i highly doubt that the simple fact of being celibate can turn a person into a pedophile.

8:16 pm

To - if I ask you to calm down, will you?

if that's honesty, then forget you all!

8:16 pm

ty, it only took me all day with numerous interruptions. I love lonog grids when I'm home, but not while traveling. See you tomorrow.

i will fiind another game

8:16 pm

<poof>

8:16 pm

i don't understand. some priests have done some bad things. it doesn't mean the whole catholic faith is wrong....

8:16 pm

well, let me honestly ruffle yah'll too...i say they're pedo's to begin with, so they figure, i don't want a woman anyway, i might as well be a priest

8:17 pm

I made the opposite move nDanLia -- I'm an ex-Catholic turned Episcopalian :D

No i won't . I try very har dto be tolerant, and what do i get, a slap in the face.

8:17 pm

ra7?

then your remark was some warped kind of attempt at humor, hurshy?

8:17 pm

actually most clergy abuse occurs between male clergy and female adult church workers

8:18 pm

that's true, Harp.

8:18 pm

yes... and one that has been employed by ... you know, comedians on tv and stuff...

so becasue they are assholes, you want to be one, too?

8:18 pm

& happens in all faiths & mentioning it was not needed in conversation

8:18 pm

TO - in all honesty, I can only think of a Catholic relative's brothers, all priests, who have secret 'wives' and secret children all over Ireland. No offence meant, but they're only human.

8:19 pm

please, please, lets calm down.....

8:19 pm

and there is not much of a statistical link between celibacy and abusers

8:19 pm

i stopped being a catholic when i started thinking, still believe in God, but i don't worship a church, nite peeps

8:19 pm

if anything, to me, the bad taste of the joke lies in making light of the kids' suffering, not in any implication about a religion

8:19 pm

anyway ra7?

8:19 pm

Can I please have a clue for the st6/18 The first one of the st's thank you

8:19 pm

Nut - I'm with you there re the established Church.

8:19 pm

don't have that one, sorry harp

then FORGET YOU HURSHY! i try so hard to be tolerant of you and this is what i get. goodnight all

8:19 pm

could I have a clue for the pi 7 please

8:20 pm

i am so confused.

8:20 pm

ra + pi4 pl

8:20 pm

st+ donkeys or butts - an s

you arecallow, insufferable, and a snob

does that clear things up for you?

8:20 pm

thank you harpjane

8:20 pm

Now do you all see why discussing either religion or politics amongst anything other than family or really close personal friends is NOT RECOMMENDED?

8:20 pm

thanks

8:20 pm

and your welcome

8:20 pm

8:15 pmnDanLia pi 7 stuff from pi4 you don't want on your hands - sticky stuff

there was no discussion jacs. just ridicule.

8:21 pm

ok, 72 person- go away. we r playing and no one needs your attitude

8:21 pm

as Christians, don't we all believe that Christ is perfect, and we are not? so... i mean... the fact that people are like that doesn't change anything...

8:21 pm

TO - oH HECK. XXX

8:21 pm

thank you dan

forget y ou cds. whoever y ou are.

8:22 pm

the priests, i mean, and clearly me as well.

8:22 pm

Hursh - Jesus wasn't perfect and he never pretended to be.

8:22 pm

lease, please, calm down, change the subject, anything to keep the peace....

8:22 pm

pine

8:22 pm

pines

8:22 pm

pins

8:22 pm

Wrong box, CDS.

8:22 pm

oh dear, I decide to join the chat just as everyone is on the verge of arguing?

i;m leaving. that should do it.

8:22 pm

wrong box cds

8:22 pm

but ty i needed those

8:23 pm

CDS is giving such great clues--too bad I already have them.

8:23 pm

Wow, leaving again, LOL. Byzantine priests are Roman Catholics whose sect permits marriage... and, you are right, jac. Celibacy came to be when the church sought to consolidate property...

8:23 pm

TO - please, stop for a moment and take a breath.

8:23 pm

kth--how the heck are you?????

8:23 pm

TO, please stay.... you are my friend...

8:23 pm

you can't KEEP the peace if the peace is gone, you gotta bring it back. i didn't mean to offend, TO, and i really don't have any negative perceptions of Catholicism.

8:23 pm

hurshy's comments were out of line & inappropriate

8:23 pm

Sorry, kthdsn--I announced my ordination and one thing led to another...

8:23 pm

I'm good thanks pam, it's my bday today and I'm stressing myself out by babbling lol

8:24 pm

may i have a clue for the in 7/48 please

8:24 pm

Happy Birthday Kth

8:24 pm

ordination, is that where you become a priesty-type-person?

8:24 pm

happy day, LOLOL~

8:24 pm

i am sorry, i guess i just watch too much jon stewart and get in the habit of making these jokes...

8:24 pm

happy 2 you kthdsn

8:24 pm

Happy Birthday, kth.

8:24 pm

It is, yes.

8:24 pm

hursh - it's okay.xx

8:24 pm

in 7 48 brought in by, say a broom

8:24 pm

ty everyone :)

8:25 pm

happy birthday Kth! and hi everyone

8:25 pm

Happy Birthday, Kate!!!!

8:25 pm

Hi, lbd

8:25 pm

I think it's hard to joke in a cyber community where not everyone is well known to each other... hugs to all!

8:25 pm

Hi, lbd.

8:25 pm

hi, lbd....

8:25 pm

ah a broom,, my preffered method of transportation according to my children LOL

8:25 pm

LLBBBDDDDDDDDDDD !!!!! Help !!

8:25 pm

Happy birthday and many happy returns, th.

8:25 pm

hi p2h, ak and lbd and wb kath

8:25 pm

Hi Jellen, Jac, AUSSIE!

more specific ndan about the broom?

8:25 pm

but TO and i are well known to each other and ... i am still confused.

8:26 pm

whatcha need aussie?

8:26 pm

hi lil

8:26 pm

pam - exactly so. Without seeing body language and having eye contact many misunderstandings occur.

8:26 pm

*kth : my k is sticking

8:26 pm

the act of using the broom christy (in the past)

8:26 pm

its motion, pt

8:26 pm

hursh - have you ever actually met TO 'in the flesh'?

8:26 pm

hursh and TOto be friends again lbd.... I dont like to see fighting on Babble, its worse than having trolls aboard...

thanks akn

8:27 pm

no, but i mean, it's been what, almost 3 years on here

8:27 pm

specially since trolls are fun

8:27 pm

two and a half maybe

8:27 pm

ahhh, never talk politics or religion in chatrooms, actually rarely talk about either anywhere. it's safer that way

8:27 pm

can i ask for some cat advice? i have a newly adopted kitty and need some assistance

8:27 pm

NUTTY!

8:27 pm

and some are just in poor taste and shouldn't be repeated

8:28 pm

Aussie - it'll work itself out in the end, these things do. But I'm about to have a fight with nut again about the fun or not fun of trolls...

8:28 pm

Hey Nutty....

8:28 pm

arguing is going to occur as we are all different people , from different walks of life and different beliefs

8:28 pm

can't help you there AK, 'lergic to them and know very little about them.

lets be kind to eachother:) and have fun

8:28 pm

Trolls can be kinda fun, if they go away quickly, it gives us something to talk about....

8:28 pm

i adopted a siamese, about a year old, he was rescued from one of those kitty breeders. never had much love and spent most of his life in a cage. i can't seem to get him to come out of hiding

8:29 pm

knitter what do you need to know?

8:29 pm

hursh - You two need to hook up on webcam, I guess.

8:29 pm

Just be patient, AK.

8:29 pm

i know she did not like me in the beginning but i thought that had changed, i am sorry to find that it has only been toleration. i do not try to be annoying. :( and i haven't got a webcam.

8:29 pm

knitter, try tempting him with some kitty toys, or a ball of wool.....

8:29 pm

I'm going to dive back into the grid now as it is very late here in UK.

8:29 pm

how long have you had him knitter

8:29 pm

when i do see him he is very loving and affectionate. i just worry that he is not eating

8:29 pm

hmm, sounds like you need to just leave the door open and let him come out on his own.

8:30 pm

i agree on the cat advice

8:30 pm

he has been here only a few days

8:30 pm

webcams are cheap, everyone who can should get one, its a great way to verify that who you are talking to is actually who they say they are

8:30 pm

is the food where he can get it while feeling safe?

8:30 pm

knitter, he will eat when he is hungry, trust me....

8:30 pm

Make sure that the food is in a secure spot, i.e, near his hiding place.

8:30 pm

but where's the fun in that, nut? 8-)

8:30 pm

i leave it out but i can't be sure if he is eating it or my other piggy

8:31 pm

put the food near to where he is hiding, and he will see it is safe to come out and eat...

8:31 pm

hursh - try to get one. They're quite cheap to buy these days. A cheap webcam may not give the best image, but it will at very least get you properly in touch with others.

8:31 pm

I might just give up on this grid, seems like i'm missing all the fun in the grid and not finding any words anyway

8:31 pm

DIVES DOWN... sperlashh!

8:31 pm

ah, I see.....

8:31 pm

just keep giving him the odd stroke and tit bit and he will then know that you want him around ak, and will start to want more attention from you and play with him aswell

8:31 pm

i kind of like this grid, kth!

fireworks for me - thanks for the help earlier!!!

any clues for wo6,33?

8:31 pm

keep other kitty away from new kitty's hidey hole. new one needs to adjust to new environs

8:31 pm

**shakes soggy self off, from being dive-bombed by Jac**

8:31 pm

if i could find his hiding spot! LOL you'd think i live in a mansion, he is a very good hider

8:32 pm

yay, pablo!

8:32 pm

whoooo hoooo PABLO

8:32 pm

I have 140 words left and it's starting to swirl...

8:32 pm

YAy pablo...

8:32 pm

i wish TO would not have gone away so quickly...

8:32 pm

*hands Aussie a towel and sinks deeper.*

8:32 pm

wtg pablo!

8:32 pm

maybe leave it in his cage?

8:32 pm

TO will be back.

8:32 pm

When I got new kitties, I segregated them from the older ones for a while, so they'd feel secure.

8:33 pm

diving in behind you jac

wo6,33? any help?

8:33 pm

what made TO leave, you weren't being mean were you hurshy???

8:33 pm

Oy! Watch where you put that torch, Lil! OW!

8:33 pm

dawg i got rid of his cat case, no one should live in a cage (felt bad for him) i am such a sap

8:33 pm

yes but will she be back mad at me?? i would rather have got it fixed now.

8:33 pm

i made a joke without thinking, it was offensive

8:34 pm

take the last letter off the wo5.20 and add the egyptian sun god

8:34 pm

oh dear

8:34 pm

what a word, lbd!

8:34 pm

wo6/33 normally has 2 vowels at the beginning. It's an Aboriginal hook for a weapon.

8:35 pm

thanks, jac. That's why it seems familiar...

8:35 pm

hursh - she might be. Get her on a messenger service and on webcam and try to work it out.

8:35 pm

AK, i'm sure he'll get used to the surroundings and your other residents. He'll let you know when he's hungry.

8:36 pm

i hope so dawg. he had such a terrible start to his life. just want it to be better

8:36 pm

i don't know her screenname, do you know how i can find her?

8:36 pm

Can I b*gger off now, as we in UK and the Aussies say, and find my last 56 words now?

8:36 pm

as long as your other pet doesn't attack him, i think he'll be okay. are you keeping him as an indoor cat?

still lost on wo6,33.

8:37 pm

she's right, i AM a snob. i don't want to be but it just keeps on happening. and i MAY be callow but i thought i had enough other non-horrifying qualities to not be insufferable.

8:37 pm

i keep my kitties indoors. i live in a very rural area on a pond. to many things to get in to

8:37 pm

Sorry, hursh. I've checked my lists and I don't have her address. Sorry!

maybe i'm thick headed

8:37 pm

Hi everyone...I'm going to give this another whirl before heading to bed. I just wonder if I will ever complete one.

8:38 pm

hursh - calm yourself! Are you on my msn?

8:38 pm

hursh you have very helpful clueing qualities if nothing else :)

8:38 pm

i'm calm, i'm just trying to realistically appraise her statement.

8:38 pm

Hurshy, don't be so hard on yourself. Your joke may have been insensitive, but I don't think it warranted to extreme a response.

8:39 pm

words said in anger hursh, let them go for a while

8:39 pm

christy, take the first four letters of wo5, add the egyptian sun god's name. ** or a cheer, **h **h **h, kick him in the knee...

8:39 pm

what the heck is the first pa 4 please

8:39 pm

ironically, the snob part is the most clearly true, and yet it is the part that least accurately characterizes the nature of my mistake in this instance.

8:39 pm

ak, i had a cat that was left in a room for 2 weeks at a time and fed once every 2 weeks, when i got her she was a skeleton and the vet had thought he'd have to put her to sleep, she was bitten to death by fleas and had no hair over half her body and was scabby all over, she ended up being one of my most loving cats as i kept giving her attention and food

8:39 pm

pa4= an official agreement

8:40 pm

AK, a treaty or agreement

8:40 pm

ty lil that is encouraging

8:40 pm

hursh - please don't keep beating yourself up. TO overreacted a bit.

thnx ibd

8:40 pm

mulling over that clue hmmm

8:41 pm

i'm not beating myself up! i know she overreacted a bit, but that doesn't mean i can't ponder what she said.

8:41 pm

ak, toyota makes compa** cars

8:41 pm

oh geez, i didn't notice that other p in the upper right

8:41 pm

got kitty on the brain i guess

8:41 pm

Fair enough, hursh.

8:41 pm

understandably so, AK

8:42 pm

i mean if you knew how many snobbish things i refrain from saying when people are being stupid... well, you'd know i was a snob.

8:42 pm

it will take some time ak, but your kitty will know soon enough that you care by the way you are with it

8:43 pm

just wish he would come out :( i have a space on my lap just waiting

8:43 pm

But you refrain from saying them. That negates some of the snobbiness.

8:43 pm

what did you name the kitty, AK?

8:44 pm

his name is sammi he is a beautiful blue point siamese. don't know how anyone could be so cruel to such a beautiful creatue

8:44 pm

i don't ALWAYS refrain... but in my defense, my parents were constantly complaining about people being stupid during my entire childhood, and it is hard to overcome even though i want to...

8:44 pm

I was just going to ask te same question lbd....

8:44 pm

boy these last 162 are killin' me....

8:45 pm

it IS a big grid...

8:45 pm

try being back on 323 harp..... its killing me, and I have my sister helping me too....

8:45 pm

hursh -you don't sound that different from me, but here in UK it's not the 'bad' thing it is seen as in USA. There is a saying, 'horses for courses' and it's not far wrong re life. And, if that offends anyone here, I'm sorry, but it is the truth.

8:45 pm

lol at your icon, Harp!

8:45 pm

my other cat is also siamese but an apple one. he is such a loe. thinks he is a dog. comes when called. plays fetch ...

8:45 pm

but, in my defence, I have only been here about half an hour.....

8:46 pm

go aussie go!

8:46 pm

i have another cat now as that one died a few years ago and i've had him a yr and a half and he still doesn't sit on my lap, he will sit next to me and by my feet and lie on the bottom of my bed and loves being stroked but will not sit on any of us ak, so maybe the cat never will, but it will still like strokes from you and know you are there

8:46 pm

greetings all! and YIKES, what a whopper today!

8:46 pm

do they appear to get along, AK?

8:46 pm

Hi, Dispatch

8:46 pm

It's a really awful thing to say, but 'some are cannon fodder' and others will go on to greateer things.

8:47 pm

hiya!

8:47 pm

hi dispatch. good luck

8:47 pm

Does anyone have a clue for the second N word (middle N, second bottom row) - also any clues for the E next to it? thanks.

8:47 pm

And, no, that does NOT mean that I think anyone deserves to die.

8:47 pm

the kitties have a tolerance for each other no real battles yet just some hissing. Sammi likes hiis chin and ears rubbed lil

8:48 pm

but some people may not be very intelligent, but be extremely kind. and so, it is right to focus on the good in people and not be a snob about things you are good at, because, there are lots of things you aren't.

8:48 pm

hi dispatch

8:48 pm

That's true, hursh.

8:48 pm

you = one = me

8:48 pm

it's just so darn hard sometimes!

8:48 pm

That's very true, hurshy. There are also many kinds of intelligence I'm only beginning to appreciate.

8:49 pm

vah, if you could be a little more specific with your request. I'm not sure which word to clue you

8:50 pm

blue point siamese, they are expensive breeds aren't they ak

8:50 pm

hurshy I don't think it matters what you say or do as long as you are happy with it yourself. There's no point in trying to hurt other people but there's equally no point in trying to please them if it means not being yourself.

8:50 pm

Well, I have one of the two N words - I have the one which is about good ne**.

8:50 pm

jac--

8:50 pm

well i don't need to not be myself in order not to make insensitive jokes...

8:51 pm

i think so lil, that is why they are raised by those kitty farmers they just breed them for the money

8:51 pm

'splain me the "horses for courses." please. I am dense...

8:51 pm

Life is all about looking for the be4 in everyone you meet. Unfortunately, you might sometimes get killed by getting your head kicked in through doing so. $ men, at least, here in Uk have lost their lives through asking noisy teens outside to pipe down. No wonder my partner and both my kids followed me outside (carrying weapons) when I last did that.

8:51 pm

i think she means... some horses can race, and some can't, you know, and different people are also not all racers...

8:51 pm

that's terrible ak

8:52 pm

and if i'm callow, well, i can't help it that i'm only 30.

8:53 pm

Horses for courses - means * what is suitable for one person or situation might be unsuitable for another.

8:53 pm

gotcha, jac and hursh...

8:53 pm

someone near us did that jac, because there child was sleeping and the teenagers were noisy, next thing he had bricks through every window and the police could do nothing as he had no proof it was them even though he'd seen them running away straight after the fact

8:53 pm

thanks that

8:53 pm

what I thought, but wasn't sure...

8:53 pm

UNBELIEVABLE, how easy it is, it seems, to resort to violence...

8:54 pm

Lil - that is very scarey and might be the final denominator to send me off the New Zealand!

8:54 pm

down to 303, go me !!!!

8:54 pm

lilliann that's terrible

8:54 pm

i hear new zealand is a very nice place...

8:55 pm

Go, aussie!

8:55 pm

could not live in new zealand. would not like hanging upside down LOL

8:55 pm

Hey, hursh. When I hit 30, I thought I'd finally found the key to Life.

8:56 pm

well, Ak, I am an Aussie in the UK, so I am upside-down !!

8:57 pm

must be tire-some having on to the planet and trying not to fall off (groans at own poor attempt at humor)

8:57 pm

i live opposite a high school and have bad language, kids jumping into my hedge and they talk about or i should say shout about their sex lives, i've had snowballs with stones thrown at the windows for no reason....if i was still able bodied i'd say something but as i'm not anymore and have a young daughter and husband that works away i keep quiet, but i don't want to

8:57 pm

There is, so my 94-year-old Great Grandmother told me, no actual key, well not that she'd found, so far, yet...

8:57 pm

well my friends, another early morning to be had, so must go find my pillows. See you all tomorrow!

8:57 pm

how much does a person's temperature normally fluctuate during a day?

8:57 pm

8:58 pm

Lil - that sucks! (As the Yanks on here will tell you.) Don't be offended at me calling you 'Yanks', youlot from USA. That was a term of endearment as I heard it from older females in my family. LOL

8:58 pm

9:17 pm

hey rows

9:17 pm

i emailed you jellen

9:17 pm

I am stuck on the silly AR 5/16...

gee i am so glad i returned! so now i am the offender for speaking my mind. OK the decision is very easy.

9:17 pm

thanks pam, i slept horribly last night and had to take today off work and... TO when i said not to sympathize with the offender, the offender was referring to me, myself, and i

9:17 pm

bye all!

9:18 pm

It's 3:17 am here in UK and I'm wondering whether to bother with the lat 56 unfound words.

however, others can spealk their minds, even if offensive, because they must be true to themselves

9:18 pm

*very very unhappy with things at the moment*

9:18 pm

be6? the second one? it follows the buzzy things

9:18 pm

i've got 40 jac, and i'm not quitting now, so neither should you

hi rows!

9:18 pm

wb TO

9:18 pm

Me, too, stid, re Babblechat.

9:19 pm

*me too stid, wish friends would be happy together*

9:19 pm

i'm not feeling well either, rows..but you aren't allowed to be sick.

well whatever, i do apologize for disrupting the harmony of the site.

9:19 pm

to, don't go as you are a valued babbler

9:19 pm

TO, I am your friend, I want you to be happy....

9:20 pm

TO - I think you and hursh should try chatting in sight of each other, really i DO!

9:20 pm

TO -- I wasn't here, I don't have time to go back and check the chat, I am sad that you are unhappy.

9:20 pm

i don't know what's going on 72, but i am sure that no one wants you to leave and most people didn't even witness whatever drama happened.

9:20 pm

second BE 6 is the plural of the facial hair that is on my tom's chin

9:20 pm

Glad to see you, TO.

lili, your words are kind. but i cannot remember the last time iread something decent, not to mention other things i do not do because of babble. it's just time.

9:21 pm

I'd say that religion has caused more wars than anything else, but...

9:21 pm

stid, i guesss i need the 3rd, because i have that one!

9:21 pm

be 6/24 is plural of a be5/14 word before it harpjane

9:21 pm

See, TO, that's where my public transport commute comes in handy--I read going to work and coming home!

I have no idea what happened, but I hate to see people get in a row about stuff "said" on a screen.

9:21 pm

Goodbye Rows!I will see you tomorrow in the chat log

department store clue again

9:22 pm

Goodbye squiggly! I will see you tomorrow in the chat

9:22 pm

I meant to say hello to Rows not goodbye. So hi Rows!

9:22 pm

the third BE 6 is also a plural -- of the word meaning "stricken with" love...

9:22 pm

hursh said something re Catholic priests that offended TO.

9:22 pm

MIN!!! I didn't recognize you in blue! LOL (((how are you feeling today)))

9:23 pm

lets not bring it up again, please....

these ar's are killing me

9:23 pm

I just got the last A word Tea, holler if need help

9:23 pm

the an's are murdering me too...

9:23 pm

could you clue the stricken with love word stid?

9:23 pm

Okay, aussie. Was justt clarifying.

9:23 pm

Well,I certainly am not feeling blue.Thanks for asking

9:23 pm

temple dear, i'm really very sorry and hope that you will forgive me.

i began to think twice after the thing the insensitivity shown to annie the other day. and I would surmise there was no one else of my faith here, since no one else seemed to be offended. So i just want to apologize for the disruption of harmony.

9:24 pm

se 5/10 after the cars?

9:24 pm

who upset annie ??

9:24 pm

be 5/14:be + tater ***s replace snake letter w/cross.

9:24 pm

That's a be word, I guess. Be + drunken person.

it;s ok hurshy, be well.

9:24 pm

lol thanks min

9:24 pm

se 5/10:plural of the se 4/4 word before it rururocks

9:25 pm

yw

9:25 pm

i know what you mean TO as babble takes up alot of time that could be spent elsewhere, but personally through this site i've met some really good friends and upset people with my icon but we are all different and have different outlooks on things and have to try and get on with eachother whether we agree or not

9:25 pm

Clued it wrong,but I see you still got it harpjane.LOL

9:25 pm

I do hope TO and hursh have made up now.xxx

no one upset her per se, but something very insensitive was said and the person kept trying to justify it. I had actually thought the person went away from embarrassment but they were actually offended that she would be offended.

9:26 pm

it's hard, TO, I am sure. I try hard to stay away from religion in discussions here and in person. But, I do find myself having to remind people that in this country, there is supposed to be a separation of church and state, and that not all who believe believe in christ. It astounds me that those who are christ-centered often orget the billions who aren't

9:26 pm

minver I need se 5/10 number #2

9:26 pm

Gordon Bennett, I am never going to finish this thing! Half an hour now before the next teleconference...

9:27 pm

I dont like to see my babble friends upset. Although I dont know you all personally, I feel we have a good friendship here..... we are all working to the same end, to get through life the best way we know how....

9:27 pm

the problem with discussions when you can't see people's faces or hear the tone of voice is you don't know the "backstory" on words. Some people with challenges make jokes about them -- others don't. It's when we start to get defensive that things sort of spiral into making people feel badly...

9:27 pm

Ausie we al are, and we fall out at times, but we work it out.

9:27 pm

yep, stid...

well i have an early wake up. happy babbling all!

9:28 pm

Have a good one, TO!

9:28 pm

Good night TO

9:28 pm

temple, if i am hard to tolerate in general, please, like, let me know as it goes along, don't hold it in

9:28 pm

That'sit in a nutshell, stid.

9:28 pm

sweet dreams TO -- see you again soon.

9:28 pm

at the end of the day we are a big family and even families fall out!

department store, anoter clue?

9:28 pm

9:30 pm

9:30 pm

Hursh - the only thing that 'annoys' me about you is that you purporrt not to use any list but do so by proxy, by aski8ng us all for clues. But, I know where you are coming from on that, so it doesn't annoy me. I'm 50 now and don't let the little things irritate so much.

9:30 pm

Hi April!

9:30 pm

thanks again bubba!

9:30 pm

CA words done...

9:30 pm

yw, as always

9:31 pm

9:31 pm

Cs Clobbered. *whacking at grid with frozen fish*

9:31 pm

I could get annoyed, like Herin did, by MovieMan just arriving, not greeting and asking for all of the 8-letter words. I don't though.

9:31 pm

Jac.. I'm fifty in June, and the little things that irritate me are my face, my neck, my upper arms, my thighs (no wait, they're not little)

9:31 pm

9:33 pm

hi joey

9:33 pm

urgh I still have 123 left

9:33 pm

thanks stid. I do think it's kind that my husband's eyesight is failing at the same rate as my face...

9:33 pm

But I find it very alarming that someone transplanted my mother's hands onto the ends of my arms while I was sleeping!

9:33 pm

hi lilliann

9:33 pm

75 for me, jac

9:34 pm

LOL jandy

9:34 pm

rofl... I have my mother's neck... I was shocked to discover it there a couple months ago!

9:34 pm

LOL, Jandy. You got all of her liverspots, I guess?

9:34 pm

108 here

10:27 pm

in 5/10 first one

10:27 pm

your welcome; see you tomorrow

10:27 pm

april you will probably improve i have did seeral grids not sure how long i have been here though

10:28 pm

yes, the grids (generally speaking) get easier over time -- there are words you start to recognize, and clues you start to remember

10:28 pm

I really love playing the game boggle, and this is similar, except with way more time per grid

10:28 pm

cara i ony have 1 in one and its a 5/10 so i wouldnt be of much help i dont think but i might need it too

10:30 pm

and thank god for that huh april lol

10:30 pm

cara?

10:31 pm

haha, yeah, but it's different really. Because here you're going for all of the words and in boggle you look for the best ones in 3 minutes. I can't find many people who will play boggle with me, so it's nice not to be slaughtering people for a change
