Howard Jones "New Song" is playing in the background...See both sides...throw off your mental chains...ooh ooh ooh
the concert was a blast! Had everyone clapping and rocking to African rhythms and joie de vivre
thanks Jill -- that was a year and a half ago -- my first hand-sewn medievalesque garb. And he outgrew it in about three weeks.
douglas as in the 80s howard jones?
heh. no, snow is not a problem for me. if all else fails, i can walk to work--but i've been able to get out of my drive all winter.
i have a nice boss with a snow plow, and a truck with 4 wheel drive

guiness or dry red
ho6/27 -- a kind of sandwich made in Philadelphia (big help for an aussie, I bet)
actually many years ago in another country i worked in a 7-11...
Oh I was trying that jilli, must be spelling it wrong
Got it! Thanks!
ho + how old you are with an extra vowel
so that leaves one more ho6... any ideas?
evening or rather early morning all....been lurking. 2nd ho 6/27 is a compound word
ty jilli
don't have it either, jandy :(
Hi justmar
Hi Jandy
can you clue one of the pieces of the compound?
I got the sandwich clue due to telly

The company are evil. They opened in Melbourne Aus just one store and run it into the ground. We were left with now jobs and no tax done right, nothing.

I am fine, thanks, and you?
not bad, just a little lonely :)
Hello - looks like all sleeping sprite
lol yes, of busy elsewhere. Weird on babble. Hi ursh :)
never mind - and how are you today Sprite?
slept well, waiting for the pain meds to kick in and then we will see. Think it is gonna be a good day. And you?
All good - having alterations done - so dirt constantly tracked in - but hub gone to golf and son gone to work - so peaceful and relatively clean for the moment tx
ah, that is nice. Alterations are horrid until they are done. But sounds like you manage very well.
yep quite stressful - but keep telling myself cant go on forever - has to get "finished"
oh yes, and then it will all have been worth it.
i know it's been discussed already... but can someone clue the re7?
nope
sorry hillary dont have
what you are when you answer
tks west!
tx westford
yvw
thanks for the clue, westford, will work on it. Not sure my brain is awake yet, lol.
ah, finally. Great clue, stupid brain.
yw sprite I'm sure you can
see? lol
lol, you are totally right. Well, at least there are no Ks today... I should be ok in the end.
you're not fond of k's?
they shut off my brain like not paying your bills will shut off your electricity. Completely.
who makes up these grids?
Good morning all.just popping in while i eat my toast and drink my coffee!
hi caitlyn! Good morning hun, how are you?
gm cait
westford: they are generated at random. Grids with no words (or maybe with too little words, I am not sure) are rejected.
finally! fireworks
I can imagine one with all k's
Im fine thanks how are you I am always lurking in the morning so I know you have been a bit under the weather are you okay today?
good job hilary
Congrats hillary!!
wtg hillary - hello cait
wtg hillary
eeeeeeeks westford! Cruel!
hilary how do you find the time with the campaign and all
sorry sprite didn't mean to scare you
LOL westford!
caitlyn: yes, yesterday was fine and I have a feeling today will be too. It is spring holiday here for the kids. I am trying to have a fun and relaxing week with them.
ha ha ... in fact part of the reason i chose this name... part only mind you
I remember a grid with something like 17 or 22 K-words. It was horrid. Only reason I survived was my fellow babblers who took pity on me.
Any clues for ps 7/32
nope catep, but thanks for pointing me towards it existence :)
what you use to sing ps**ms in church... also goes with pepper
I hope you have fun with the children this week sprite
add the ps to an ego
thanks westford and hillary for the clue, got it. And thanks caitlyn for the good wish! I hope so too and I intend to make it happen. Little steps at a time. We made animals from little glass beads yesterday and they loved it.
eliga5: dyslectic croc
It was only a short visit this morning but I must go and see my mum who is not well at the moment back later happy babbling all
hope she will be better soon, caitlyn. *hug*
bye cait wish her well
bye cait
I am off for a little while too, my family comes home from skating.

bye sprite have a fun time with the children
hi all
hi carlee
just sitting here staring at the grid didn't see you come in
Morning sprite, hillary, carlee, westford. Any of you gor a clue for the pe7? I'm stuck.
am not up that far hydra
sounds like an oyster's thing on a diet
and good morning
Many thanks, westford!
pe 7 --- as pe* my memo and low cal, alt spelling of dark
Hi Rabble. I didn't know you were here. Hope you're feeling good today. And that goes for everyone!
yw hydra hoped it would work
Why, thank you, and may you excel today in the craft of life
this is a nice little grid
I see a band
not a word though
Dunno about the craft, but I'm rowing my little boat and hoping the ocean of today remains calm. BTW, if you go to the poetry library website at the festival hall in London, they have an interesting poem-making thingy. You move words onto a magnet board. My pathetic attempt is at http://www.poetrylibrary.org.uk/?flash =yes&id=1550
Oops. Didn't know it would come out so long!
( its not like shat is flying right hydra....don't worry)
chat*
sounds pretty interesting will check it out
I used to write poetry in my other life
It's fun, anyway. They also list lots of poetry competitions for any poets amongst us. Yes, you, westford!
your poem is not obvious to me at that link
maybe
It's time to get up and I haven't even been to bed
time to go nice seeing all of you
It forms itself on the blank screen if you wait a mo. I jjst checked it.
good night, westford
Bye, west. Have a good day.

Good morning Babble Teammates!
afternoon scrabbler
good morning everyone
hello mom
Hi Pinkhat
Yes, I should have said "Good day". It is 8:18 AM for me. Mom--I am not used to seeing you in the AM.
G'd morning Scrabbler, Mom.
I am usually on for a bit in the morning, but my routine is all screwed up.
Good Morning Scrabblerand Mom!!!!
All is well Mom?
I was on the phone with a friend--her father is in the Cardiac Care Unit with some, get this, cardiac issues.
i need to remember not everyone is on the same time zone as me!
good morning Redturtle. How are things going with the license issue?
will he be alright scrabbler?
His heart rate is in the high 30's so he may need a pacemaker. He is 80 yrs old.
yes, Redturtle, things are getting better.
I sounds as if a pacer is the key here, unless he was overdone onMetoprolol...
will they give it to him
For my friends and me, our parents are at the ages (late 70's and older) that health issues are becoming challenges.
I finally gave up on the license, and contactedan agency who will process the license appforafailry reasonable fee. I should have itby the end of March...
Yes, I asked her if he was on a beta-blocker, but she is unsure.
excellent. I wish you all the best.
I feelso lucky htat my parents remain healthy, they ar in late 60's. In fact...they are in Portugalfora Month right now...
Mom...have youhad terrible weather?
that sounds exciting, Redturtle
yes, we had ice Thursday night into Friday. It was about 1/2" worth
My parents are 76 and my father has had 2 angioplasties and some stents placed, and prostate issues. My mother has not seen a doctor in 25-30 yrs--doesn't trust them.
the roads are decent now though
I'm glad you areOk Mom!! Weather is so hard this time of year...
morning to all! Hi cheeky!
fireworks!!
Hey lil*monkey
hi lil*
just fine, Redturtle. Thanks. Has your weather improved?
Scrabbler,she doesn't even trust you?? Of course you are peds, but....just wondering...
Hi Monkey!!!
{{LilMonkey}} good morning
Yahooo Pink! I am 156 behind you.
Oh yes...everything melted. I am just muddy now...
congrats Pinkhat
hi pink! hi MOM! Hi scrabs! hi red!
yuck, mud!
i just signed on, only have 175 to go LOL
Yes, my mother asks me all sorts of health issues and I have told her that she needs a doc for when a big issue appears, but she lives in denial.
Congrats pink!!!!! G'd morning lil
Come on, monkey, you are close!
lol scrabbler, anywhoo, one must do laundry, hoovering and mopping bbl have fun everyone!!
hello Lori, I haven't seen you in a long time
have fun, Pinkhat. Bye for now
hi LoriP! didn't see you there...
yes mom, good point! where the heck has LoriP been?
Later pink, have a good one! mom, I've just been layin' low lately, not chatting.
I have missed seeing you
we'll call ya Lori the Lurker...
just wanted to assure you LoriP, that i do not fly nor do i steal icons
Lori buries herself in the grid and gets serious with the word search, while the rest of us chat and take all day to finish, if we even finish.
But you do steal icons, and I have the icon to prove it!
I am in the babble category with Scrabbler
what? who? me?
Lots going on in my personal life, so sometimes I just escape in the grid, to clear my mind, and not say much. I can be quiet once in awhile.... :-)
I can't believe I finished yesteraday and my stats just continue to plummet!
Lori, I am impressed with your speed at finishing--you are so efficient, and you always have an early start.
red, that's why I never look at my stats! Ignorance is bliss. :-) (for me)
hope the personal life issues improve and are not serious. {{hugs}}
I don't know why I care...Lori Hope things go ok for you-all in the future...
Yesterday's grid was hard, and I thought the word stats were lying to us, but I finished.
Thanks Mom, no different than anyone else. Life isn't always perfect. things'll be fine, just gotta' ride it out.
Bumps in the road of life.
Yesterdays' grid went pretty well, the one a few days ago, almost drove me insane.
{{{{LORI P}}}}}}
well got 40 words left, gonna go bbl to finish. Ask me if i feel bad that my son is not allowed to eat until 6pm tonight and hasn't eaten since 12 noon yesterday, and I am going to eat breakfast now. No I am not sorry. He is raising money for World Vision and learning what it feels like to be hungry. He raised some where around 200 dollars!
Words are not jumping out at me today.
hey, where's my cheeky friend lilliann?
I tend to turtle for coping, everybody has their own way. Oh, and drink. LOL :-)
Yay for ph's son.
oh that is wonderful Phandmd, congratulations to him.
Lil*Monkey, Lilliann went to bed
Lilli was on earliermonkey.
I believe lilli left, didn't she? I said goodbye, whether she did or not.....lol
Scrabbler,you need coffee/
oh poo
Great for him, phandmd. I couldn't do it--my blood sugar would plummet and I'd have a migraine.
I am on my second cup of coffee.
oh....
That's awesome phand. ***hands Scrabbler coffee***
Usually all 3 of my kids do it and we get over 1 grand but this year it is only him. They get to drink fruit juice and sports drinks and water, so the blood sugar is usually ok
Good morning everyone...
I have to work today from 10:30-2:30. All sick kids.....and parents that want them better stat!
good morning Lori Ann
Hi LA!
hi lori ann!
G'd morning lori
I am continually discharging kids lately with "Jacinta has a cold...." enjoy Scrabbs.
Well, I hope you have a good day at work Scrabbler. See ya'll later
***gotta' double up on them Lori's, 'cuz they're so crazy!*** :-)
You got that one right LoriP
Later phand. Kids with a cold? Like, how rare is that?.....
Actually before I was married I was Lori P
Most parents do not like to hear, "It's a cold." or "This is a viral illness."---they want an antibiotic or quick-fix cure.
Now I'm Lori G
LOL, cool!
When I am married I will be Scrabbler Clooney.
That's funny scrabbs..
Yes indeed...One Doc keepsprescribing therondec syrup,so they can have a script...
Uh oh. Clooney fantasy time. 'Scuse me while I mentally slip away for a bit....
GoodLuck Scrabbler...
Yes, George will be amused to find out too.
if I marry my current bf, my monogram wil be LSD
Parents can be pretty quick to trip off to the Dr. I save that for the broken bones and stuff.
RTH--the American Academy of Peds says no to cold/cough meds for kids 6 and under and is petitioning the FDA to withdraw the meds for kids 12 and under.
Wow, that's a trip, monkey.
LOL
yes, yes we know. but this docstill gives them the teeny dose of rondec dm....
I hate wimpy, parent-pleasing docs.
I love that
Your someday monogram that is Lil monk
I agree Scrabbler, they're enabling, and then the visits become more frequent, wasting resources, IMO
Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds
They should not be dragging their kids who are asleep out at 2am anyway...I was trying to triage a kid the otherday and the Mom kept saying,"But she is asleep"andI kept saying did you want her seen? We needaweight and a temperature...
LOL love it scrabs
except it's Laurie in the Sky with Diamonds
That'd be lori, if someone here knew how to spell.
Scrabbs....How do you feel about infant tylenol
Haha, good for you, monkey!
I am sorry. in this area we have a very low lowlevel of education among parents and most areabout 17 and have no clue what they are doing....so after seeing tons of them....
pain relievers are safe
let me consult Webster's ... hmmm.... *flipping pages*... it says BOTH spellings are acceptable
Good to know. Thanks
I am in my 20th yr of practice so I have seen it all.
I'm sure you have Scrabbler. The alck of common sense, is prob'ally staggetring.
We have a 20 yr old pregnant with her 3rd kid. First was born at 15.
I never say that any more...because each time I do scrabbler, something wierd shows up...
looks like some crazy weather today heading toward the west coast... anyone babbling there???
I need to scoot off here and do something productive. Will be back later to exercise my brain. {{hugs} to all
Bue mom
When everyone chats, Are you able to look for words at the same time? I just can't seem to catch on to this.
er bye...
{{{{mom}}}}}}
{{Redturtle}} bye bye
I fear for the future of society....so many kids being raised without adequate parenting. Maybe it has always been the case.
{{LilMonkey}} bye bye
Later Mom. You know that productivity in real life is abd for you, right? :-)
Bye Mom. Enjoy the day.
Bye Mom
yes Lori, it is very bad, but a necessary evil in my life. Bye bye for now
True, RTH---I still say, "Unbelievable" almost everyday at the office.
bye bye Scrabbler, have a good day
I wonderScrabbler...I always wonder...and I wonder ifthe kids just get smarter asthey get and circumvent their parents...
bye bye Lori Ann
Now, if there is a cohort why isn't there a hort?
Oh oh to 6 is for little monkeys Loo!!!
TY for that clue, RTH.
YW, I washappy to find the word...
why isn't figery a word?
I can't figger that out, monkey
good morning, everyone -
to6? for lil*monkey's loo? hmmm, i have to find that
lol, lil*monkey
hi JBV
Lori Ann, as to chatting and finding words, clearly when we chat we are not finding many words.
oh actually i already had that word , Red! LOL
and what about gefilte fish?
Hi JBV
hi JBV
G'd morning JBG
Ack, JBV even
what about them JBV?
This is good to know Scrabbs...I don't know which I enjoy more!! I do believe the company wins.
*observing LoriP once again spelling somehting wrong*
well, I see the word in the grid but it's not accepted
oh you're right! i wonder why...
I do lurk at some point, just to be productive, but then I have to beg for a clue and I reappear again.
red, was that a clue for to 6 - can't see it......
***Observes lil, observing me, spelling things wrong***
It must be a Lori think Lil Monk because I am always spelling things wrong!
Lil*monkey--you are the Asst Chief of Babble Police when Hazel is not here.
I meant to say a Lori thing not think.
oh my! i am!?
LOL lori ann
Hot flash! Ah, I must run outside and get the nespaper now. BRB.
Can't picture lil as a monk...... :-)
what are my responsibilities as Asst chief of Babble police???
Punch in at 8, drink coffee, punch out at 4.
how about a donut?
No thanks, I just had one.....
well get me one then!
Jeez, terrible manners. What's the magic word?
hi
LoriP what time is it in jolly old England right now?
hows everyone doing with todays puzzle?
G'd morning silver
PLEASE!PLEASE!PLEASE!
hi silversarah
I am back. Al Gore does not realize how much menopausal women contribute to global warming.
i only have 42 word!
its 1.54pm here in england
***hands lil a donut*** Very nicely done.... :-)
oh i agree scrabs! my bf calls me "the furnace"
i have 9 thus far haha
THANK YOU LoriP... did you see my question about what time is it in England?
oh thank you sarah
***observes lil asking a Canadian what time it is in england. Our ties with the queen aren't THAT strong***
lil*monk--you must be on the lookout for Babble violations---mostly placing obvious clues in the chat.
Hi sarah
it is 8:55 am Saturday here in Virginia
LOL Scrabbler
Hi kids
G'd morning Frantique
scrabber, i don't have enuf words to tell if anyone says a woooooooooooooooooord in the chat
Hi Frantique
Somehow I am up to 62 words.
It's 9:55 am here
I'm very bad at breaking that rule Scrabbs
8:55 AM here in western New York state. Sunny and beautiful out!
i am missing one Q word...i'm so annoyed
I need 4 more Q words.
I have all the q words, nanner nanner nanner... :p
i have 4 5's, a 4 and a 7
smartypants . . .
I have 4 q's - how many are there?
wb Une
7
i feel that your taunting behavior could be a babble violation, LoriP
:-D
I am at the point now where I have realized that some words begin with vowels. That is one of my weaknesses in Babble.
that's one warning for you
Hi Une
oh me too scrabbler!
back at last, hi all
hi Une!
hey, sprite :-)
hi Sprite!
2 7's lil
Hi Sprite
OK thanks LoriP
G'd morning sprite
hubby again on the couch with a gout foot. Now the other one. That makes 8 weeks of misery.
Oh, yuck, Sprite!
he is now waiting for it to be swollen enough to call the hospital... they wanted to take a sample of the fluid when it was really bad.
i can't find that other 7 LoriP... not the person who makes comforters
oohhh, sounds very painful--so sorry sprinte
*sprite
i can never get ae words grrr
it is. And since he is an active outdoor man, it doesn't really work miracles for his mood either.
lil, a person can qu***** for an event, with time trials
excellent clueage! TY
ae4==prefix actually
Q's are done--I feel like a re** Babbler now.
i have greyed out the Qs , but that's all
re4/4 or re4/7, Scrabbler?
I am down to t's. Sliding you all over, to finish this puppy.
love your icon, Lori
sprite, it wasn't me!!!!!! i swear
lil*monkey, I hope our banana doesn't see YOUR icon, lol
I'm back I had to take care of a few things...
hi lori ann
Hi sprite
hello everyone!!!
Ty for the other re4 clue, Sprite.
Go LoriP go!
hi annie!
Hi Annie + Bobby!
*giggles* Does that mean you did mean the 4/4, Scrabbler?
Hi Annie
good morning everyone
heya Annie!
Hi flosey
hi floey!
hi flosey
I meant re4/4 but maybe there is another re4/4 that you are referring to?
Hi Flosey
grumble grumble... g'morning all
hil lil, scrabbler (hi from Bobby), sprite, loriann and hi to flosey
Hi Natts
nah, just nagging you, Scrabbler. Giggling at you being a re4/7 Babbler.
hi Lady
hi LadyN
Hi Natts
hey, annie! are you snowbound??
I don't even know what re4/7 means, but I know it is a babble word.
hi Une, not snowbound, thank goodness!
i was 3 words away from getting my first video last night
where in the grid does the re4,7 come from?
My daughter just left our house and almost to a telephone pole with her. Our roads are terrible yet from the snow storm.
Why didn't you finish, Natts?
bottome row, monkey
it means robbery, loot or spoils. But in german it means ripe.
Bottom middle R
almost took a telephone pole. LOL
!!! I was trying to... and then it flipped
I think.... not sure, now that I say it. I am thinking of smelly. Ah well, maybe just a weird connection in my brain.
Oh, poor Natts. You will finish today--beg for clues if you need to. Babble is no place for pride, just humility.
thanks sprtie, I am just lurking along the edge. Guten MOrgen to all
that's funny, lori ann... I'm supposed to take my daughter out today to teach her to drive (or, at least, how to start the vehicle)
got it, thanks
hear hear, Scrabbler. I second that.
hi inge
hi inge!
Guten Morgen, Freundin Inge. Wie geht es heute?

Morning all!

Hi Uniquity

Daughter came for a surprise visit with granddaughters. They still go to our dentist. Right now they are at the dentists.\\
good luck Lady Natts, I can remember teaching my daughter.
hi Uni!
hi uni!
How nice, Inge!
halfways, going to the list, tehn I cannot see the chat anymore
I shall stop trying to find Y words now.
Bye, Inge--good luck with the grid.
LOL scrabbler!!!!
and bye inge
you should stop trying to find y words, since there aren't any
I frequently try to find words that begin with a greyed out ti**.
poor Scrabbler. I did the same today.
I have to get ready for work--bye all. Enjoy the day.
any clues for the g word from the bottom left corner?
This is the third time I have managed to make House my icon :)
have a good day at work, Scrabbler
i just got babble expert yesterday... I was so looking forward to the video... but alas, I was 3 words away when the flip happened
NM just got it
Take care Scrabs!!
bye Scrabbs
awwww LadyN, that is a pity. But you can still see the vid in a few day's time, when Lickety has put the link on the history page
gy + a** you kidding me?
oh really?
`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves Did gy4 and gimble in the wabe: All mimsy were the borogoves, And the mome raths outgrabe.
Later Scrabbler, g'd morning everyone who arrived.
LOL Jac. How lovely. Sounds like Marten Toonder, but then in english.
TY for clues, LoriP and bride of Clooney
It's Jabberwocky by Lewis Carroll, sprite.:)
I adore it, Jac!
today's icon theme is medical heros... I think mice fit that
Indeed they do, LadyN!
LadyNatts, as soon as I have finished, I will give you the link to the history page. I don't have it bookmarked, I see.
thanks, sprite! I always hear about the video... yesterday was my first babble expert experience.. and i didn't finish!
a few more words then, LadyN :)
I had 3 left.... it was a true disappointment
http://licketysplitaus.googlepages.com /fireworkshistory

hi christy!
will do, LadyN. You do the same. Hi and bye christy! *waves, giggles and leaves*
whats a prefix?
i seem to have forgotten
... and I ask again... why do I have to get up at 6 am when I don't have to work?
'Bye, sprite. x
*hugs Jac quickly before poofing*
Pick and choose Flask? ***confused***
a prefix is a word, or part of a word put in front of another word to alter its meaning, i.e. DISassociate.
G'd mornign christy, and anyone I missed.
its ok Lori.........
Didn't mean to offend, if I did somehow.
I've been in and out, trying to convince myself to showvel the driveway
*shovel, even
LoriP, put your feet up and have some cocoa... the snow will eventually melt!
**lurk** **If I weren't lurking, I'd say good morning to all**
hi scarlotta!
Sorry lori.......I was really just thinking aloud.....and certainly NOT aimed at you!
LOL, Scarlet.
Monkey-shines!! :-)
lol scarlet... good morning
{{{scarlet}}}

scarlottapiglet!
OH, Flask... are you having a bad start to the day? {{{HUgs}}} Hi, Jacula, Lady and all!
No problem-O Flask. :-) G'd morning talking Scralet who just violated the lurking rule....
That's me, ol' Monkey-shines!! **Le oink**
what is the lurking rule?
Congrats Flask!!!!
i wish i had LOTS and LOTS of snow!
{{{Annie}}}
WHAT lurking rule?
I just saw a wonderful video of Edward Hopper's painting with Benny's Goodman's, Sing Sing Sing playing in the background
She's talking now, so no longer lurking.... :-)
No Scarlet am just finished!
Well done, Flask.

Pabtrek!!
Hi Pab
fe6 sounds wild, Merk.
Hello all
Hi Luc and Pab
and merk
hey peri !!
and peri
Hello to everyone who's just arrived.
peri!!
fe6 is almost the rodent but change the last letter
Hi Jacula
Duh! Thank you. My coffee hasn't hit yet.
Hi Peri
without tea, i can't figure out that fe6 clue...
It is not almost a rodent, but almost a member of the weasel family, montreal.
te4 is also a word! plural of the drink... the fe6 rodent is sometimes a pet, but change last consonant to the hockey stick
(Hello, folks, but pretend I'm not here. I'm lurking.)
ahh ty Vic - got it !
**Adds a drop of apricot brandy to Luc's tea, and try to rhyme it actor Will FE's name... you know, the idiot movies with sports' themes...
oh sorry vicuna... i muddled the animal genres
or the actor Will Fe****
Hi, Vi!
apricot brancy!
LOL, peri... I borrowed from your cabinet.
brandy even :-) I am tired, did not sleep well
morning, Vicuna

apricot brandy yummm - however scarlet, my tea ain't ready yet !
Sorry, dear. Can you take a nap later?

hey, scarlet!
I want to finish this grid so I can get ready for lunch with my niece. She is taking me out for Indian food for my birthday.
bonjour Une !!
NIce, peri!! Hey, Une!
mmmmm indian food!!!!
got it
(At any moment I shall be called upon to administer snack, so don't mind me when I quietly cease to exist here in Babbleland.)
salut, montreal!
peri, i love rogan josh (not sure of spelling)
I LOVE Indian Food. It is a tradition. she takes me and then I take her on her birthday in July
don't know what that is monkey. we do the buffet
you'll never cease to exist for us here in Babbleland Vicuna !!
it's a chicken dish in a creamy curry sauce
The gentleman in the dashing fedora strikes again! =)
***sobbing quietly*** Lucien did not say good morning to me... my life is ruined. **tearing garments... pouring ashes on my cheeks**
Is it just me or is the grid a tad bit challenging today.
actually peri, i just googled it, it says lamb curry
*what a drama queen*
MOI??
scarlotta! don't cry!!!!!!
:-D
ewww, don't eat lamb
hi montreal! please say hello to scarlet!
same here, peri
scarlet is trying to get a part on Days of our Lives
***snorfle...sob, weep, wail and gnashing of teeth**
i don't peri, i make it with chicken
snorfle?
Did I do it, huh, Annie, huh, huh?
lol scarlet "tearing garments... well... good morning dear (eventhough, i saluted everyone in (almost) my usual fashion earlier...
you are in rare form Scarlet
Scarlet! You did us proud!!
**washing cheeks, putting clothing in proper order and kicking box of Kleenex out of the door**
Bravo scarlet and Youppi ! - great acting !!
LOL
**Bowing grandly with Loretta Young gown snagged on seven-inch heels**
WOW !
*hands Scarlet an Oscar statuette*
Oh Loretta Young with the grand entrance! (or was it exit)
phone - brb
entrance
It IS, after all, the Oscar Bash this weekend... thank you all for my grand debut and exit...**Special hug to Lucien for dragging me away from the gutter of despair**

Have a wonderful time, peri!
enjoy your birthday lunch, peri
bon appetit, peri!!
enjoy b/day lunch peri!!!!!
Now I have to hit the kitchen to start the long process of making halupkes... love 'em, but it's a big job... Will lurk again throughout the day... thanks for the laughter, Babble Friends!! :-)

nothing like skating to the market instead of driving!
oh well i admit i like it when its fresh snow and all is quiet and dont have to go anywhre after a day or so it just gets nasty lol
We just don't seem to get proper snow anymore.
same here sadie...the quiet is really nice
cabin fever that slowly evolves into raving dementia

Hiya nut!

Morning nutty and red

I am so smug today
hi red &nut
Hi back for my last 76 - can anyone help me with the fi5/20 plz?
hey red!
sheesh maybe its just me but i can think of soooo many other things to do lolol
I thought I could see smug radiating from the South cost, why Ata?
not so many, but then the new snow sheriff luke is in town, so you should be fine
Ata,why smug??Imust know!
cos I've (literally) just been told I'm a shining star in the art world of a particular fandom I work in
i lived there for 54 years we had quite a few over the years lol was fun too but then im not from the city im from a bit out from pittsburgh
Lovely!!!
*Sigh, gets woodwork tools out to widen the doorways*
Always nice to be recognized Ata!!!!
congratulations Atalante
Ya Ata *grin*
fi6 what coffee goes through before going into the pot
congrats atal
ohhhhhh thanks
*giggles*
hows the new mayor doing evanut?
Anyone here up for a cat question?
gfi Angela!
got the fi6 - it's the fi5/20 that I cannot find. any help most appreciated.
sure go ahead and ask
cat ques?
i got four dogs but used to have cats
My cat Biscuit is 16 and is a big licker. We give her hairball sauce and usually she's good...however
fi5, expensive beef dish
She seems really irritable about being touched and when she stood up she was shaking a bit. Any ideas?
ty for the clue
not sure what the irritability and shaking have to do with the hairballs?
got that one - I think. It's the very firstfi5/20 that I'm missing. got all the others.
I'm thinking maybe because she got sick that she was weal ??
oh sorry sandie
could she have a blockage, has she been using the litter box normally
Sandie, ablaze.
I'm sure I'm just neurotic but ...
ends with sometimes vowel
She seems to be pab.
hmmmm i dont think you are neurotic actually id be worried also
if she's 16 she's no youngster...
of course!!!! Thanks so much Queen.
maybe time 2 see the vet
id be googling the pet dr see what is on that site
irritability and shaking would maybe vaguely suggest some general malaise. if it continues, cos she's an old girl, I'd take her to the vet to be sure
You're welcome, Sandie.
for some reason I got hung up on getting a g into that fi word.
I've just never seen her shake - almost like she had a little chill
2nd fi4?
I think I'll put in a call to the vet then - he lives next town over and will stop by on his way home fora house call.
you all
i mean 3rd
I would call the vet, cats are very delicate creatures, she may have eaten something
yes ... sounds vaguely chilled / raised temperature / some sort of not quite rightness
wonder is shes caugt a virus is what it sounds like
critters get viruses just like us
i would call the vet for sure
good idea Angela
she is currently passed out cold on my legs...
thanks so much you guys
2nd fi4 - when you organise papers you fi** them
Afternoon everyone :-)
i have that one i need theone after it, silly me
hi kate
Back in a while, have to "go" to work for an hour
afternoon katie
All the fi4s are similar - just keep changing the last letter.
hi katie
hm im not doing very well today
not well on the grid? or are you ill?

maybe its the hangover :P
good the far lesser evil
and I am done, everyone have a good day, Angela I hope your kitty is okay
bye pab
congrats
thanks pab...I'm sure she'll be ok
im gonna be here forever!
can someone help me out with the pe's
I have the 4
Angela, whats wrong with your kittie?
always best to check it out though, Angela. Esepcially with an elderly kitty!
I think she just may have a virus or something...shaking a little, just not right.
pe 5/16 is a mans name
I will for sure Ata...she's my girl :)
just found that one--ty pugmama
mr.mason of old tv series
I hope shes better soon :-)

back again, hi lynxxxx
Hi Annie
go 6/24 please
Hi AnnieB
go6 -is a skin growth
lynxxx, have you any relief from the heat?
go 6 is a medical condition - thyroid problem
go - a lymph node condition, usually in the neck
Katie, they are both similar. One is a growth, frequently caused by thyroid. The other just reverses the last two letters.
oops, my error. Thyroid
thanks, jean, didnt think of reversing the last two letters.
Annie...yes! lots of lovely rain and even cold nights, wonderful
lynxxx, goodie!!! I can take cold weather but heat gets to me
You're welcome Annie. I fiddled around with it for some time!
back to the e's, I have ep 5/14 - what is the number of letters/value for the other ep, please?
ep4/6
ep4.6
Hi Lynxx, annie, Queen, autumn, JBV KatieW etc and lurkers!!!I am back for the millionth time, 60 to go
ep 4/6 =ep and laughing sound
Hi Red !
Hi red!!!
got it, thanks everyone
hello, all. might i get a clue for ti? /
hi red
hi dc, I have a zoo cat
and a person who puts down bathroom floors
not having a pile of success with the grid or motivation to do something else,like housework...
duh, ty, jbv
i didn't look down :)
and a layer of a wedding cake
Hi DC
hello, lynxxx
hi dc,,,feel any better?
why do I always overlook the obvious ones?
Yes DC, how is the weekend treating you. Did you guys get to go to the concert?
a tad annie, recovery is slow.
yes, red, it was lovely, and i managed to keep the coughing to the applause periods
Good Job on the coughing Seain.
can anyone help with li 7/40 please?
kazozz, it uses the high value tile and sounds like what you to turn something into fluid (minus a syllable)
li + qu 5/16
dc - just saw your profile - why (and how) do you use a different keyboard?
ty Annie
and JBV
i use a different driver for my keyboard; i switched because i foun QWERTY hard to use.
i couldn't keep the letters straight on each hand, even after years of using it.
I think I think Qwerty...
so where does one get such a keyboard - I've never heard of it
what is querty?
in windows, just change the keyboard layout.
QWERTY is the standard keyboard layout, snags
I learned how to type when I was about 7 or 8 years old, so qwerty is just second nature to me - I would probably have to work very hard to learn a new one
thanks...... have I seen this game on pogo>
look at the first line your keyboard on top snags...
The same for me JBV, I had this little red plastic typewriter my Dad gave me....
ok
i learned at that age, too jbv, but switched when i was
26 that should have finished
i still have the typewriter that i learned on; it was my mother's.
gee I never thought of it before i do have a second language...QWERTY heh
Seain,I have nothing! I never save anything it seems....
and I also remember using my mom's hs typing workbooks (we're going back a very long time here, I was a child in the 50's, mom's hs was 1930's)
Cute kittens sadie!
the one i have is a 1956 Tippa portable, complete with West German Police Registration papers.
I save everything, red, and that can be a problem, too - too much stuff, not enough room
thank you they are my friends they are two weeks old today :)
indeed, jbv. i've recently embraced the power of 'throwing away'
that's cool, dc, do you have it out on display or in a closet?
I admit, I love to throw away...but sometimesI should savesome stuff...
closet, unless it's appropriate to bring it out.
i used to save everything but now I'm going thru piles and piles of papers --sorting, recycling, etc. . . . just found a gift I'd forgotten from years ago--a crossdresser paper doll! LOL
if my plastic red typewriter were that cool, I probably would have saved it Seain...
I have my dad's old aluminum coffee pot (percolator) and I keep it out on the counter with a plant in it...
I suppose moving so much helps me to pitch. stuff,but I did just find a bunch of old timesheets,from another contract...
sa 6/33 pls?
neat, a percolator as a planter. :)
I've adopted a new strategy recently, I'm keeping a notebook/scrapbook so when I throw something out, I jot down a few words about it, makes it easier to let go and doesn't take up space
smart, jbv!
I love reusing things likethe percolater idea,that way I canenjoy it, without feeling like it is taking up space...
don't have it, dc . . .
cool, ty :)
sa6.33 sa + ***e & death +my second letter
ty, lyn!
thanks, lynxxx
aha! sa6/33 looks like "to make salty"
? and death? oooh not taxes, I gotit...
TY Lynnx.

ciao, joanne!
Sure, Ata.
Bye Joanne
I think she should do what she can krista experimentation is the mother of learning your parents do know something after all
nope, definitely not nesting. just feeling like creating something, which i haven't done in a while
except for the grand creation of a BABY! *grin*
hehe, yeah, well there was that
thanks jbv
I told her she is welcome to play around with it, but if she wants my help, I'm here. "Oh sure, you think I can't do it!!" Oy vey.

krista, sounds like one of those conversations where you won't win
THAT is an awesome project, Atalante!
isnt that the *coolest* thing!
oh that's neat!
'zactly. I stay very calm, which annoys her when she "wants a fight." She is usually so sweet..I can almost see those hormones a-swirling!
WOW. I just read how she does it. WOW. very cool!
at 7 please?
I would love to have the ability to do something like that
*grin* the best way to annoy a teen is to stay in control... of course I usually only manage for a short time, then I blow a fuse (or three)
hortle should be a word
oh, that's neat, Ata..I'll have to ask my knitting friends if they have seen that
at 7: past tense to dine on food + a person who tells an untruth
I'm just utterly in awe of it, krista!

Ok people, I now feel so silly. I am using lickety for my last 70, now at 48 left. I was struggling over the to's...then I used bulk add and I actually have them all....I have been trying to make upwords for about 30 min...
I think we've all done that, red. I know I did it the other night
LOL red. oops
well, red, if it makes you feel any better, that happened to me once - when I just started using the bulk add feature and forgot to update.....
what a waste of time!!
Yes, JBV and Autumn, I feel better!
I've never done that *smug*
Me neither. But then, I don't use expert, so no smug there!
Ata, now your head isgiving you problems.
same here, vicuna
I haven't gone to the list yet, today may be my day to finish with the list for the very first time......
lol nor do I Vi
it's definitely slow going, though
Go JBV...
I meant without the list for the first time
I just feel smug today LOL
Ata's smug is revealed for the sham it truly is!
I used to not use the list, but then I only got about 75% done...
We know Ata!!!
Hello, everyone 8)
Any particular reason, or you just got up on the smug side of the bed?
Hello, gramma.
hey, gramma!
Hi Gramma!!!
Did anyone see my son on the Today show Thursday?
but we like you ata even if your head is so big we don't recognize you!!!!
sorry to bother please can i have a clue for el 5/10
el5/10 the "upper crust"
el5/10 - the best, ends in misspellt luminescence
No Gramma, tell us about it!
ty all :)
i was lookin the wrong way :)
oh, because I was told I was a brilliant artist LOL
what was he doing, gramma? was he outside at Rockefeller Center?
Here's something "silly" I got the li5.14 last night but only *just* got the ti5.14 (after much searching and counting)
You are, you are, Ata! You earned THAT smug fair and square! =)
Was the mother-pride flowing, gramma?
They filmed the program at Sugarbush Ski Resort in Warren, Vt. My son is the man that keeps the mountain running. VP of operations. They did a nice interview w/him. It was 2min & 30 seconds long.
lol I think other people believe that more than me!
how exciting, gramma! Know you were thrilled!
oooo wonderful gramma!
Well, that's probably as it should be, Ata. I've met artists who believe it more than other people do, and they're pretty hard to take!
that's very true. they are insufferable
It was very cool. He gave us passes that allowed us to anywhere we wanted. VIP brkfst, the green room, the set inside...everywhere!
oh, you were there for the taping?! wow!
I rcvd. a hug from Meredith and Ann
that's wonderful, gramma - great for you and for your son

katie did you happen to note what the log time was?
it was about 8.30 on the log time (or a little after that) :-)
Dogs for the Disabled do run an event each year but it changes country each time. Next year they are walking the great wall of china. But if you Look at the Action for charity website they organise loads every year

I'm very pleased with my monkeys they just got the ro7 all by themselves
HI, Vi!
bonjour Vic !
Oscar's whining to go out. Better go before disaster strikes. Great to chat FM, Ata, all
Hello vi
**Tossing many bananas to Katie's monkies.**
Bye Liz, glad to have caught up with you :)

Later Liz... I'm exhausted just listening to your life! :-)
*waves bye and poof*
Ah... just saw your post, Luc... good to know!
lol scarlet - u should try living it with 2 kids, 5 cats and a big dog too! lol *poof*
bye liz !
LOL.... ***flop, face down in the mud***
Not to mention the husband?!
Husband too? **double face-flop**
*hums* "With five cats in the yard, life used to be so hard..."
husbands help don't they ??
Beatles live in Vi!!
and the devil and the deep blue sea
Some, such as you and my beloved, are great helpers, Luc!
Liz's husband has done an artic trek if I remember correctly
He is one amazing man, FMitch.
re 6/24, anyone?
yes Vi and BR - i assume my icon has inspired you 2 ...
Well, if he were more than one amazing man, Liz would be a bigamist.
(Or polygyninst, I guess)
mmm they are not all do useful, I had to get rid of mine after a very short time.
Or, busier.
LOL Vi, very good
I am neither for nor against apathy
I don't care, BR-r/
That is the best thing you can do with one who doesn't help, FM.
Doxie ? sorry I was away for a few ..YOU think you know me ?
And you're presumably both for and against ambivalence.
i'm on the fence on that one BR..
Control freak *shudder*
hello
LOL...
Hi lynxxx
I'll get back to you on that one, Vi.
... or "helps" too much, FM!

thx, everyone!
I'm so glad you clarified, FM.
lol ~FM more power to you if you wanted to go through with 5 weddings :-)
Have a "Procrastinators anonymous" meeting tonite ... don't think i'll go...
ACK!
if people got along better, there would be less not getting along
LOL, Luc... I wish I could make the tilde for the word that should be your PA mantra: manana
Says who, BR-r?
very deep BR, almost Tao-like...
got it just the same dera scarlet...
Urf katie one was enough, 11 months or organisation, but it was a stupendous day
words of wisdom by rare Lee stated
Ohmmmmmmmm\
dear* even
LOL, Luc!
that reminds me scarlet of my work-trip to India a... while back...
And, and...
You ohmmmmm-ed through the countryside, Luc?
doesn't remind me of your trip
not much touristy things done while i was there scarlet....just the word-association is all...
Must depart for now.... I guessed that Lucien... be well, smile often and carpe diem everyone!
Goodbye, Scarlet!
be well, Scarlet
see you later dear ((scarlet))
Bye Scarlet have a good day.
could i bother someone for the re 6/27? it's my last word...
**Waving madly to Vi, BR-r, FMitch and dear Lucien who has been such a patient friend!!!**
re6/27 - what ROLAIDS is said to spell
"tosses one more Oscar scarlet's way"
Bye Scarlet! Hello to the rest.
Hello, Haz!
... and I am done!
goodness, can't believe i missed that! i'll take a salmon for my flogging...
hey there hazel !!
Yay for FM!
wtg FM !!
*see if she slips on the heels again*
Hello there - well done to FMitch!
does anybody need any help before i log off?
congrats FM
Hi Haz
Did Scarlet exit wearing those 7 inch heels again?
ro/7/40 microscopic animal with rings of cilia
I'm back after watching the Tennis Legends in Belfast. Mr Borg looked wistfully in my direction...
congrats, FM!
i'm finished too!
If I wore 7 inch heels, my toes wouldn't reach the ground.
well... triple, how about the at7 ??
Oh Yes Vicuna
Evening HAz, was it gooooood?
Congrats Triple
Hi Haz
at7 - artists studio, which you should get 'cause it's French
lol hazel...wistfully...
got it Vi, tx !
past tense of comsuming a meal, then add someone who fibs
Congrats triple :)
Yay for triplebock!
that clue was for mont
It was indeed. They can still play tennis, those 'veterans'. This afternoon I watched Bjorn Borg, Pat Cash, Anders Jarryd among others.
tx triple and congrats !!
thanks everyone! godd way to spend the sat afternoon! it's been awhile since i have been able to play
YM mont
Congrats FM & Triple !!
anybody else need any clues?
thx lynx
to7 please triple
don't know that Jarryd guy hazel... must have been before my time...lol...
Some great names there Haz, did they thank you for attending and adding a certain cachet to the event?
to - t + either ** + ceramic ****
lol FM...
They didn't mention me by name, but I'm sure they were thinking of me!
Anders Jarryd was 80s, or at least when I was fairly young
re-lol hazel
Haz, you must have had plenty of opportunity to use your regal wave.
a swede mayhaps ?
He's 45 now so he's not that old. Mr Borg is older but VERY handsome.
strong winds all day Haz.closing down Goodnight folks
just saw the tennis chat, i used to really enjoy watching during that time period
Night bill
g'night billm
Thanks triple. off to spend time with H2B for a while. BBL for my last 10
I did, Vicuna. None of this raucous whistling and yahooing for me.
Goodbye, billmster.
bye Bill
later katie !
goodbye, billm
can someone please help with the last ro5/10?
And goodbye, katiew!

ah tx triple
well, i better get going...hornets versus spurs tonight is on TV
weight, actually, but varies by country
later triple
i have to flip btw that and memphis vs tennessee
Goodbye, triplebock.
Haz was there one particular highlight of the evening? Bye triple
sort of like the old "thumb" or original non-standard "foot"
I enjoyed all the matches, but thought it was tremendous to see 16 and 17 year old Irish boys taking part in a doubles match with Anders Jarryd and Chris Wilkinson (GBR). It kind of felt right that they should be learning skills and teaching together.
The main highlight though was Mr Borg's wistful look in my direction.
LOL
of course hazel...lol
Sounds like a really fun evening
I hope you weren't too cruelly disdainful to Mr Borg, Haz.
It was all round good entertainment - Borg was especially sporting and congratulated his opponent on good shots.
what must George think!
It was those wistful eyes....
No, Vicuna, my looks were equally wistful towards him.
George hasn't sent me my Oscar invite yet. That's what I've noticed.
Does Mr Borg sportingly congratulate Mr Clooney on his successes?
The interviewer forgot to ask him about that but I'm sure he would have if she had.
So, have I missed any excitement in the world of Babble?
scarlet offerred a great performance this am around 8:30 or so...
Aparently it is well worth reading back around 8.30 I think kate said for a Scarlet moment but I have missed most of today
I'll do that. Vicuna wasn't joining in with singing was she?
Well, FM confessed to having five husbands, Ata unleashed a cosmic death ray toward the antipodes, Scarlet had a hystrionic meltdown, montreal got himself up in glam-rock make-up and borrowed Scarlet 7-inch heels...
an Oscar-winning performance hazel !
I say chaps, we have won the rudgby!!
I was smug
So, a pretty dull day, then.
Good eh FM :-) Vicuna a lovely summary of the evening events and very acurate :-)
Vi you are such a fibber!
of course Ata, what else ?
and we blamed FM for everything
Ata was, of course, smug. On account of not using expert improperly and knowing little ocean critters.
Well, Haz, who are you going to trust on this: katiew or F<?
She can't use expert improperly if she doesn't have it.
Do you think that interfered with the smug?
i dont use it properly or improperly
I think I'll read back in the chat log for myself, Vicuna. This needs investigating......
Actually for once no-one blamed me for anything, an oversight Im sure, but refreshing none the less
I missed the at7 clue, could I have it again please
give us time FM, give us time
hows the sniffer dog? can she sniff out things we should blame FM for?
Okay, okay, I admit. I have embroidered a bit, for the sake of interest.
I think she would use it properly if she had it, so that qualifies for smugness. ANd the fact that she doesn't need it qualifies for more smugness.
lol FM...
at7 - French artist's studio
You were the only person not blamed by Al Fayed, FM.
at7 = an artist's place of work
ooo double smug!
Which is in itself cause for suspicion...
So, do I just read between the lines a bit, Vicuna?
you mean FM didn't kill Di after all?
I'm sure Dodi's dad mentioned her in Court!
A bit, Haz. If you want the prosaic boredom of strict factuality.
She's bound to have had a hand in something. FMItch, are you in MI6?
I say Ata!
Or will you have to shoot us if you tell us?
Now dear Haz, you should know better than to ask that sort of question.
I should, shouldn't I?
which is an answer in itself
you gals are nuts ...but lots of fun !
blame FM for that
(Quick show of hands. Are we offended or flattered by the description 'nuts'?)
Sticks 3 hands in the air
both
*raises foot*
"waving hands as high as i can"
soryy 2 break up the party but,clue for last RO word please?
LOL
I've heard of ambidextrous, FMitch, but that is ridiculous.
*falls over*
LAdies, he is outnumbered, just being to cirle him.
*waves Hobbit's lack of tail*
pl of prec ro4 pug
ro5/10 - plural of ro4/4 preceding
*throws keyboard out of the window, narrowly missing the strangly silent owls*
He's well surrounded already.
TY HAZ
i am well surrounded all right !
what sort of owls are they, FM?
But which are we voting for? If we all vote at once we can't be stating our preferences clearly. There'll have to be a recount.
a hand and three paws are up here
*starts filling the bathtub with ping-pong balls while the giraffes watch solemnly*
They're probably owls with sore heads at the minute.
Im not playing that game again Ata, it was my undoing last night :)
If I ask FM enough, she might get off her backside and find out lol
Haz, Vi has clearly not been taking her tablets again.
fireworks
If she goes out at night with binoculars, people might think she's strange.
they dont already?
Yay for montreal!
I think you're right about Vi. Delusional or what?
But Haz, *reasonably* she IS strange.
Congratulations montreal!
someone may have switched Vi's tablets... i wonder who it could be ?
Congrats monty
How do you know the giraffes aren't solemn?
Well, I know people know she's strange, but they might think she has criminal intent.
Congrats Mont !
giraffes always look pretty solemn to me
congrats Mont
tytyty - "taking a bow with a grand sweeping gesture with my fedora"
Exactly, Ata. So why do you people doubt my story?
On the count of 3 grab monty and deposit him in the bath with the ping pong balls
re 7/32 - help please!!!!
3
4
I think they look vaguely embarrased rather than solemn
re7/32 - one who answers
the one that answers pablo
GMTA Vi !
1!
GO
Well, there is that, FM. But there's no cause for embarrassment in the ping-pong bathtub. It's conceptual art.
arrrggghhh
I'm a little worried about what sort of games are getting played when you start with a bath of ping-pong balls
He does add a certain je ne sait quois to the bath
(Ummm, what's GMTA?)
ca 6/27 please
i'm not worried...hehe...
great minds Vi...
hmmmmmmm, this is more worrying still
thanks for the re7!! That was fireworks!
ca6/27 - comparative description of ca5/20
wtg pablo !!
brb
ca6/27 - more cautious (or more like a barred animal house)
Congrats Pablo!
bye FM - gotta go soon
Apparently my M is not G enough, montreal!
Yay for pablo!
why do cats just plonk themselves done in random places and go to sleep? like in the middle of the floor?
Congratulations pablo!
stop it Vi !! "in a stern voice"
My husband does that as well, Atalante, not just cats.
Stop cheering for pablo?
lol Vi...
(Show of hands, do we like montreal with a stern voice or not? I'm slightly quaking....)
Cats choose their random spots with great care and discernment.
Thanks for the clue Vi
he does? with his paws tucked under his chin?
note to all: i RARELY use a stern voice...
If only. No he spreeeeeeeeeeads out.
Haz, haven't you learned yet not to phrase your show of hands questions with multiple options?
well he's certainly not a cat then. cats are precise
So we have to take note when you do, montreal?
I find my cats like to sleep in random places. Crumble particularly likes the top of the stairs (right in the way) or on the ironing board. Mari took it down on Friday and she is still sulking
You're right, Vicuna, I've done it again.
that was, again, a lot of fun - but it's time to go - happy babbling all - will see you tomorrow - bye all !
Bye montreal!
well yes, hazel, of course !
Nightshade likes to be on something on the floor, like a piece of paper, or a sock.
bye mont
bye Mont
Silverclaw just sits in the middle of the floor. Or in the bath. All the time tucked up neatly
Bye, montreal! Please leave all the ping-pong balls. they're art!
Bye montreal :-) *he's off to practice stern voice for tomorrow*
"waves at numerous babble friens... and a few nutty ones" - "POOF"
Nutty? Who CAN he mean?
Sometimes Nightshade curls up neatly, but sometimes she lies in what I think of as the Bathsheba pose.
evanonut of course!
Nobody we know Haz certainly
*raises foot*
Oh, that's all right then.
"you'll all recognize yourselves i know...lol... "ACTUAL POOF"
is this where we blame FM?
It wouldn't hurt, katie.
(Oh, post-poof lurking is so rude!)
et 6/18 please
et6/18 - a French star
tempting though vicuna
I never would have suspected that montreal of being so vulgar.
refresh for silverclaw pose. though she got a bit squashed importing into babble
Trying to flush him out, Vicuna?
WHAT ?????? vulgar ??? - how's that for post-actual-poof lurking ??? - "REAL ACTUAL POOF"
Oh yes, I like that one, Ata. I wish I could tuck my wrists like that.
Someone check and see if he's signed off. Once he does we can let rip.
she sleeps like that all the time. even at night.
Tsk tsk, The laws of Babble clearly state that once a member has poofed they may not unpoof for a seemly period of time.
Alas, I have to go read to unwell son for a bit. But I'm not signing off, Haz, so watch it!
Poor poorly son!
Bye Vi, hope son is on the mend soon
go 6/24 clue ... but not the thyroid go..?
oh this is classic. hobbit just walked up and wiggled her lack-of-tail madly. but the lack-of-tail has a little tuft on the end and that was swishing across silverclaw's face. you should have seen the cat's death ray look!
hi everyone
ruru - two spellings of the same thing, I think.
Hello Andree!
thank you haz
ho 6/27 (both please)
g's are done...whew
You're welcome.
i love the lack of tail on all spaniels, looks so cute, mine had no tail, now not allowed to remove tail
ho6/27 - a cigar (think of jazz musician Carmichael and ho6/27 - combine a porcine with a means of restraint
its still legal here, but vets will only do it for certain breeds, and some vets won't dock at all
Hi Andree & Ruru
pig lace!
Good clue Haz but nowhere near the classic pig lace of earlier today
hi lynxxx
illegal here but i can't get used to seeing spaniels with tails
Good grief - a ruffled pig?
hi lynxxx
even for working dogs, Andree?
makes one think of miss piggy modeling victorias secret!
not sure ata
LOL pug and hi again
it was a classic clue !
HI FM
ho 6/27?
Scroll down, ruru just a couple of minutes ago.
clue for re 6/27 please
it would be interesting to see, andree. Working spaniels can be hell with tails - constant tangling and breakage and not funness - for the dogs
Got the cigar one, struggling with the other!
pig lace, katie! I mean, can't you instantly tell from that :D:D
re6.27 asprin brings re6.27 for pain
you can dock a dogs tail if its a working dog. POOF
thx for those go clues.
re6/27 - it's either a sense of satisfaction at something not being as bad as you thought, or re6/27 to put something back in the cabinet again in the proper order.
Lol, just got it, great clue :-)
i arrived just in time, down to 10
thanks lynx
Dare I ask pr7 please
pr7 - before birth
thanks ata
how about ti 5/14 please
Fireworks ;-)
yay katie
Yay congrats katie
Congratulations!
I think that ho is a sandwich
Think about a cat bella
missing ho6/27 not the piglace
big cats
Congrats Katie!
It probably is, ruru. I'm probably mixing up words.
thanks cant believe i didnt see that
I'm probably using probably too many times in one posting.
just saw your post re docking herin, thx for that info
probably :)
anyone need clues before i go?
docking herin? is that legal?
re 7/32 please?
ahhh FM welcome back, you will be relieved to know you have been blamed in your absence
re7/32 - the one who answers
someone who answers pug
she probably looked it up on the net ata
*grin*
Or re7/32 - when you really can't get something unstuck you may have to re7/32
li 7 clue?
ho6/27 please not the pig lace
a sandwich in Philadelpia...greasy
ho6.27 Ho**** Carmichael (not a y on end)
dumb as a stump today ,still nothing...
li7 li + q5.16
No i didn;t look it up. My friend is a dog person. Tail docking can only be done by a vet for the welfare of the dog. If it is a working dog and that kinda thing. Its banned for the 'oh its a Spaniel its meant to have a docked tail. Look at the pretty no tailed dog'
thanks you lynxx
ah thats good herin
if you ask someone a question and they answer you they are the re*****
BIG TY KATE!!!!

Hi Jillibus
{{Nutty}} how are you?
Hi Lady
i'd be better if i could walk on my stinkering foot
Nutty, I am enjoying the Stephanie Plum books so much. Ijust finished book 12

plantar faciitis, I think it is, isn't it?
I hope it will help.

2 shots later and it is much better

red, i just installed it yesterday... it's brilliant! I love it.
EwwwMonkey....
what's wrong red?
Hi all... back to knock of my last 51. Am I having a bad technology day or is the chat flying so fast my laptop is struggling?
you just drag the link to your desktop
Did you know monkey once, I had chocolate little debbies on my kitchen table for3 months, they stilllooked fresh when I finally threw them out.
why throw them out? theywere still good :)
Hi Jandy
Well Monkey, I had lost 60 pounds, did not need cupcakes.
hi jandy -- clues available!
how about the at7, jilli?
I am anti little debbie...
but it leaves more for you Monkey!!!
wow 60 lbs red
how did you do it?
i like the lemon ones... my bf eats the choc swiss rolls all the time
natts -- artist's studio/workshop
just so you don't become anti little monkey :(
wonderful, Redturtle

pe + consonant + crazy spelling of not heavy
All diet/ exersise P2H. its really the only thing that works permanently.
stick a cons in the middloe of pe6 for the plant growth medium

well that leaves me out
Dr. Monkey, Medical Hero
have bad knees red--kind of hard to exercise
i figured my mice would work as medical heroes
ty for the clue jilli and monkey
Yes indeed, natts!
Right, try again, i keep having to refresh to see the chat live, which explains why I've been in some terrible time warp.... feel like I should be wearing tie-dyed harem pants!
I swim,and that is very easy on the joints, but you have to really really want to do it. I mean like crazy want it more than anything. Otherwise I probably would have stopped.
got the pe7.... but still not clued in to the at7
have lost 7# in the last couple of weeks tho
That is great P2H!
LOL jandy... tye-dyed harem pants???
My brain exercises are over. Will have to stop with 60 left. Good night, and {{hugs}} to all.

{{lil*Monkey)) pleasant dreams
ah... that worked, ty lil*
bye Mom!!!
is it really an artists studio?
{{Jilli}} pleasant dreams
there seem to be a lot of ta words....
You're probably too young to remember, lady, and I'm still trying to forget...
yes, natts -- french word
ah... and Jandy, I'm not too young.
natts, did you know you can click on the little ? beside the word for a definition?
frequently I feel too old.
Was thinking about boob tubes the other day.... I'd have to wear it six inches lower now!
yes, I do that often, jilli
LOL Jandy
But Jandy would you really want to wear one of those again???
time out for me for a bit -- back soon
No, red, but I'd like to have the kind of body where I might choose to do so if the mood took me.... grin...
Instead of having to wear a caftan to every 70s party we go to...
On that, Jandy I would agree. I had a bit of a feeling of desperation in the gym today...
I kept thinking, "Is this really making a difference" towards the end as the gym was hot andI was so sweaty...
Just now and again I catch a glimpse of myself when I'm not prepared, and it is an image strangely at odds with the picture in my head...
jandy, you are only 4 years older than I... and younger than my husband and siblings...
Jandy I've had that experience...both ways.
do you really have 70's parties?
So you
So you're the baby Natts!
I am the "accident"
Sometimes... we were invited to one recently and I made cubes of cheese and those lurid cocktail onions on toothpicks, stuck into half an orange...
7 years younger than my sister... almost 9 years from my big brother... spoiled rotten
Aaah....
you so make me laugh, Jandy... thank you!
It was a toss-up between that and a moulded salad... gross, but the height of sophistication when we got married in 78!
Holy Cow I am at one left and it seems to be an A words....
Jandy I am not gonna admit how old I was in 78...
do you know how many letter, red?
You
remember how every party in the 70's had a fondu?
oh my goodness, Jandy... I don't think I've even heard of a moulded salad!
You're okay red, you're too far away from me to get hurt!
hello :)
It'sok, i recall the 70's though.
Oh yes pug... and they're back! My daughter-in-law served one recently
Hi Carra!
everything old is new..
Hi Jandy :)
fireworks.
hiya carra
They were lovely, Natts, set in gelatine with chunks of pineapple and celery and stuff and always in a Tupperware mould...
Yay red!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yahoo red
Hi Lady!
yay red
Tupperware mould... of course
Wahoo red!!
my last word was so silly!
Or you could do a potato salad with gelatine... cough...
Give us a hint red and let's see if we have it...
as I had it in lickety but not in real babble...maybe I shall try bab expert...maybe.
I still have 63 left... I think babble expert has jinxed me against finishing the grid
I got 49 and getting nowhere fast...
WHats tomorros icon thing??
I hate that, red. Me too.... keep meaning to email for it.
Ahh Aliens!!!
I am in the vicinity of roswell, NM...Hmmmm
Maybe you could just take a pic of the highway, red!!
aliens?... do you think a picture of my teenagers will work for that theme?
Could be highly appropriate - I remember thinking "who are you, and where is my lovely son!"
lol... indeed... they do become aliens when they are teenagers
Hey! **is indignant as a teenager**
The good news is they come back to who they were. The better news is that they then move out!
my 18-y-o daughter moved back in!
Sorry Une. But let's face it, hormones are a powerful force.
Just ask the average Babbler! LOL!
no insult intended, Uni... I love my kids... they're just "different" now
I like to hope that I am becoming a person, rather than an alien :)
and my 16-y-old is a dream child... one every parent should have.
You no doubt are, Uni, and a gorgeous one at that. But it's like creating jewellery from precious metail - there's a lot of heat in the process before you get something beautiful!!!!!
Uni, how old are you?
It's really fun to see the changes in my little brothers as they approach teenagedom. I think LoriPs number 2 isn't taking teenagerdom as well as I did :)
Nineteen, Lady
Ok icon check.
I feel for you lady-mine is 21 & just turned human again
I have two sons. One was a swine of a baby and teenager, the other has just sailed through life to his mid twenties with a vague smile, being adored by all. We are who we ae...
so I have changedthe icon, but not the blurb....
There you go... you've gone past teenagedom, really
Jandy, my sisters 2 boys are exactlythat way.
How true... I was just on the point of getting married at your age!
I've a son who's 20, and girls 18 and almost 17.
One is very brittle and easily tantrumed, the other is easy come easy go....
but I have no kids, seems simplerasI am not married.
me too Jandy!
Well, I have my boyfriend of four years, we moved in together last September. Close enough for me!
that's pretty close, indeed, uni. and my boyfriend (whom I married and had 3 children with) I was with for 5 years and we were married for 17.
Aww, it always makes me smile to hear of happy people
Congratulations redturtlehead on fireworks! Hooray!
optimism... it's good for you. However, we've been divorced for 7 years now. Still get along, mind you. But he's been remarried (twice) and I am now remarried.
Wow, that is a lot of marriages. I have seperated parents, both who had new partners and children, but marriages were never legally ended or redone, heh
Can work though, for the long, long haul. Been with my husband since I was sixteen, got married just after my twentieth birthday, will be 50 in June and 30th anniversary in August.
And I agree on the optimism, Natts. It's one of the keys to happiness...
August is good! My bf's parents have been together since 16...they are a bizarre couple, but made it through so far
re 8 please?
tenacity... that's the key... my parents were an odd mix too, but made it to almost 50 years (but then my dad passed away)
re +purify
my grandparents celebrated their 60th last year, impressive
quite so, Uni
i dont even remember my mom and dad being together. they split when i was 3/4 and divorced when I was 5
I love seeing old married couples who have been together for more years than they have lived apart... It's lovely
it's a beautiful thing indeed.
aw, carra, I think that's sad.. at least we made it until our youngest was 9/10
then my dad met someone and they have been together for 17 years but we dont get along, never did
how many total words today
lol
and, like I say, we still get along okay

On my. Even with the grid help, I was still trying to work from the wrong p. Thank you.

and i was so inclined to respect you too jes
doo-ooing nothing, all the day through, trying to find lots of things not to do...
went to the caribbean and played in the pretty water, dawg
ooooooh! i'm sooooo jealous!

blllt, nut
um... barbados, tortola, antigua, st. lucia, and dominica for a day each. whcih was totally not long enough on any of them
it sounds like a great day, jill.
WE have been busy start to now (fellas just got home) and no end in sight yet

stid, where natural water springs occur
stid -- underground watter supplier
thanks Jill -- artesians! LOL
um, water
negatory, stid
do you remember the Olympia Beer commercials?
not me, stid
lol, stid---Olympia beer...do they still make that?
US commercials are cut off here and Canadian ones substituted
not any more LBD, but they had a whole series of ads and commercials where people talked about the artesians (some people thought they were martians working in the brewery)
that was about 25 years ago I think.
LOLLOLLOL stid!!!
nest icon theme is Aliens!!!
they were just as good as the Ivar's Clam commercials (giant clams chasing people along the beach)
what fun Jill -- perhaps I'll see if I can find one of them for my icon!
Now we have a very annoying commercial about popcorn shrimp
i love the commercial where the people are talking to the tv
yeah, that's the plan jilli--i would really like to go back to samana and/or st. lucia
stid -- today's icon theme was one I had suggested -- medical heroes -- didn't you have any?
this woman sitting on sofa hugging her pillow, saying don't you dare go down that basement...then...didn't i just tell you not to go there?
i'd like to go back to st thomas
woo hoo! finished printing pics from november!
jeepers, who prints pictures anymore?
ME
:P
me too!!
I liked St Thomas too -- banana daiquiris as I remember, plus a friend of my mother's running a jewelry store... so long ago, sigh
pffffft, that's so old school
not with my fancy schmancy photo printer it's not. lab quality. and i don't have to drag any kids to the store to do it!
cool, feather
lab, i love how they call it a lab, like they are splicing genes and cloning rats
i don't print them, because i'm lazy and would just lose them anyway. but i do post them online for other people to see :)
sounds pricey, feather!
moi aussi, jes, now -- but some stubborn peeps don't have email
its good too jes, cause if a tornado comes in your house and blows your pictures away, you can still get them
how silly of them!
clue for ps7?
okay, here - ish.
i wanna make tortilla in this grid, but some silly person put the l's apart.
nah, it's about the same as having the store do it.
very silly, jes -- I even have a friend who doesn't even have TV! Talk about Luddite!
makes sense, feather...
me too jes -- the tortilla...
need the second GO 6/24 ...
well.. i have a television. but it's not connected to anything outside my house...
ps + tailors ***** clotes, dox...
(please and thanks you)
plus i take way more pictures than i need to print. to stand at the store selecting which ones to print would be a p.i.t.a.
hey feather, can i have a copy of percy? he he he
i only have one, stid. it's the iodine deficiency swelling of the throat
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL, feather
jes!!!! but you DO have a computer

herbee, that was a hint to go see her picture....like now
I love the current thread on that cartoon, Jill! (hoping it never happens to me)
howcome you can't add an r to the end of that ho6, anyway? what else do you call someone who does that?
I have to go make supper and watch 60 Minutes (pacific time)
later Jill
good question, jes!
ooh. supper is an excellent idea jilli

hey, peeps
have we got enough cluers?
just got off the phone, or I'd have been in sooner, but I do have other things to do, if there are plenty here doing it
just noticed. kizah, did you realize you did a no-no?
No I did't...what did I do?
when you were clueing re6, you spelled out fi4/7
is there chocolate, etc. in the penalty box? :)
we joke about it, but we try very hard not to do that
Oh...I did! I actually should probably be briefed on the clueing rules since I've never given them before, but only have four words left and want to tonight.
need clue for et 6 18 plz???????????
I didn't mean to do it and won't again...it really was an honest mistake.
I know you're a newbie, so please don't think I'm trying to be mean. I know you're trying to be a good Babbler :)
I do believe you, hon
firewords. ty for the clues
et6/18: e + work + another vowel
yay, book
I don't think you're being mean at all...you're actually being quite kind in pointing it out because I didn't know (even though it seems obvious now).
whoooo hoooooo BOOK
well fiddle. I cannot find the right sort of image for my icon for tomorrow. Will leave this one in place
i was going to point that out as well but was busy looking for the other re 6
So any other rules/guidelines/etc I should be aware of?
just wanted to be sure I wasn't hurting your feelings. communicating with words only can be tricky
hey, stid
YAY book!
can't think of any at the moment. stid? book? dawg?
I appreciate that tyger, but you came across the way I believe you intended. You were just helping me out and I appreciate it.
LOL kizah! your first time in the penalty box? we just try very hard to not use actual words in our chats.
glad you took it in the intended spirit
ty got the et word.
I do know that it's easy to be misunderstood and that sometimes people are very sensitive...I admit that I can be given the right (or wrong) circumstances.
yw, MKG
need first fi 5 20 plz?
and the penalty box is usually well stocked with chocolate, cookies, etc. Sometimes even things like truffles and champagne!
anybody, is there something else kizah needs to know and I'm forgetting?
saler
fi 5/20 is hot flames
first FI 5/20: something in flames is fi***
nm got it.
1st fi5/20: alight with flame - hi value ending
go mkg go!
Ok...now I'm just doing dumb stuff...typing words in the wrong box!
LOL - we all goof sometimes
Grrrrr...not my night!
oops kizah! are you using the lickety browser?
kizah we try not to do that either lol
Yes, I am using lickety...very helpful.
I don't have a problem with using the wrong box, but that's because I do it all thru Lickety, and only upload when I'm finished
it can be hard to chat and puzzle at the same time.
I think something I need to remember is not to take my night-time meds before trying to finish babble.
Hello tygerbryght! How are you? Welcome to the grid
hey, min. I'm OK. how about you?
i think if kiz is gonna type words in the chog as clues - they need to be the biggies

Kizah, just don't use the word or part of word or another grid word, and you'll do fine

but maybe the last letter is double in his name?
The first ho is another name for submarine sandwich or grinder.

angelina,I often see your name in the chat lounge on Word Twist. Do you play it often? I just discovered it
yw
yes, i play there and always leave the chatroom open
so in case anyone i know comes in so i can say hi
it's fun there
I do not understand that Word Twist chatroom. How come the times of the messages are not in any order
because sometimes no one chats in there so the messages might be from a different day
it's not like this chatroom
the main people who use the chatroom have been people i used to play competitive boggle with in atari
I think it is weird. I don't like it. I just play the game.
well if you ever check the chatroom and i'm on just say hi
i usually keep it open when i'm in other games, helps us find each other to play
evening...I have saved my elusive word for the last one. could i have a hint for the sa7/28 pls
hi pbr
I see your name there all the time,but I don't know if it is the current time.I discovered Word Twist after WEBOGGLE disappeared.I actually like it better than WEBOGGLE. I like the way Word Twist tells you what kinds of words you have like common,rare,wide, etc.
