hi flosey -- where ya bin?
hi, flosey
I've been here jilli, puzzling my way through
just halfway
hi dc, feeling better?
didn't see you arrive, flosey, but the flip was delayed for me -- had to refresh
for me too jilli, I had to refresh as well
no, flosey, went back to the doctor, who found multiple infectoins. I TOLD them two weeks ago i had an ear infection. ah, weel.
night all, finishing tomorrow
well, rather. wish i could sleep i'm really tired
g'night crpw :{
oh darn dc, what a waste of time
:) rather
g'night, crpw
sorry to hear dc.....same thing happened to my son :(
nite crpw sweet dreams
well, the flu is gone, at least, flosey, but i missed class again tonight, thursday, and will likely not work today, friday.
ah, so i'm not alone, ty, mar, that actually makes me feel a tad better :)
well thankful for that dc
must be an international thing :(
have never had ear infection but sounds painful
indeed, flosey, at least i have some nergy.
sometimes the patient knows more than the docs
as an adult, not nearly as painful as when i was young, but yes.
flosey, I'm near tears of pain just thinking about it
sometimes, but not always.
I hear there's a lot of the real flu in the US -- a strain that escaped the vaccine
no, but here are 2 instances :(
sure, it happens
yes, jilli, influenza Strain B
Yes, it has gone around 'bout everyone I know, but we're all young and healthy, so it's more of an inconvenience than anything else
my niece in Woodstock Ont, has it and had flu shot
I know about earaches -- age 5 had scarlet fever, went to the ears -- no antibiotics back then so had 5 mastoid operations
hmmm Sam......what's young? lol
We're mostly in our thirties. At today's life expectancy we haven't even hit midlife yet
how awful, jill, that must have been
well many here right now have passed that decade decades ago lol
old is 15 years older than you are
sounds very painful jilli
Yepyepyep. I'm young. And lucky.
lol jilli
it's amazing how 'old age' keeps getting older eh jilli
hm. i don't perceive 52 as old, though i see the point, jill
ohhh you'll get there too Sam so enjoy......goes by very quickly
of course, much of my family lives intho their 90s or so. My personal goal is 105.5
I'm old enough to be sleepy at this time of night. Time for bed. G'night all.
g'night, samantha
night Sam.....have a great sleep
sleep sweet, samantha
goodnight sam, sweet dreams
grah. i can make many words with these letters--but i have to rearrange the letters to do so!
It was no fun and my parents were really worried, they told me later. One op went near the trigeminal nerve and they anxiously watched me wake up because it might have left me with half a paralysed face. My mother said they were never so glad to see me cry because I did it with both sides
yes so NEED to flip board around
night sam!
wow jilli, what a relief for your parents
i can imagine what a relief that must have been for them.
wow jilli...it's been a helluva ride so far, eh? so many advances during your lifetime and so much more to come too!
got that it7 at last!
go, jilli!
have never seen it spelled that way
british spelling, flosey
we in NA kept the Z, in Britain it changed.
oh, thanks dc
british? thought American.
flosey, that's Brit spelling -- lots of words with that ending spelt that way
no, we use the Z in those endings
lol i thought brit/canadian
oh we keep the zed here too
heh. the lack of z totally gave me that word
thanks
canadian is a mishmash
lol jes
lol, sure is
i know. i key in on bizarre things.
I don't use the zed in such words.
yes maybe so jilli but my formal education taught me z only so I miss many words cause of that
yes, but you're from britain originally
lol ---- scrolling back at chat - the brits had the right way of spelling first dc lolol
there is a -our spelling on the board....maybe should start looking for colour and favour etc :)
yes, dc, and a bit stubborn
lol dc.....without the u I'm lost
nothing wrong with having some british blood in ya lol
ive got 1 8 letter...any more....or any longer than that?
a friend of mine who grew up in England, and started programming at 9, used to get in trouble for writing color instead of colour. Tells you how much time he spent coding. LOL
i am just not seeing long words tonight.
only 1 8, no longer.
only 1 eight dart
well Dartie hasn't called fireworks yet so getting a bit nervous here lol
6 x 7 20 x 6 48 x 5 75 x 4
well, actually I'm bi(tri?)lingual -- had US education too so when in Rome had to do as the Romans did
ive just managed to hit halfway
due to working for many multinational companies, my spelling at this point is a blend, a sort of 'international' english.
so dont expect miracles from me tonite lol
stalled out at 83
it is a bit scary that dart isn't done
don't think I've added a word in last 10 or so minutes
good for you, kiwi -- I blab too much
i'm at 88 right now; still short a q and w, both of which i usually zip right through.
perhaps bedtime
so you yanks ( I know I know but we say it for the whole 50) use the zed, err zee instead of the S?
tho i do have all the corners done lol
I've noticed that, dc and find it charming
yes, just, we do
the w's were not bad, dc. i'm missing a q still though
oh my at 94 and late flip but I dead in my tracks right about now
i learned zed from my family, who came to Ohio from Montreal
have these 7's...which am i missing am , it, re , re , to ?
oh really dc? French heritage?
sorry dart i have those too no more
Heo
kinda sorta, great-grandpa was a german jew who spoke french, who moved to Montreal to learn english from the anglophone jewish community.
Hello even Dratted L got stuck
heo herin
sorry dart .....I have only 2 7's lol
hiya herin happy babbling
mom's mom's mom's mom was from Paris, from which i got some songs and mirepoix
oh so you are jewish still?
so you've read Mordecai Richler, dc?
i've got those 7s, too, dart.
i can understand quebecois, but i don't speak very well.
err still part of the mishbucha?
long ago, jill, yes.
quebecois is to French what Southern USA English is to the Queen's English lol
no, jewish/catholic/lutheran on mom's side, native american on dad's. sister and i both came out with the native american, but bits of jewish and xian traditions, like pesach, shiva, and xmas. we're both Unitarian Universalists at this point, too.
Hello back. I have the Eye of Bast for Mr Pres. There will be Bastet Icons for her till she returns home
but that's the way it should be...language that is constantly evolving
yes, just. i remember at 18 having the epiphany that the French English, Spanish and Portuguese of the Americas resemble each other more than we do our European cousins linquistically.
Southern English resembels Scots and Irish English
for sure and wow what an identity tree dc......wonderful!
DC you on yahooo?
I can understand people from Aberdeen with little difficulty
Some Quebec joual is derived from old Norman, I think.
yes, lady, i am, and aim and googletalk
oh, that would explain a lot, jill :)
it's still spoken here Jilli but not by many......they are dying off and the younger generation is quite sophisticated
Ok ill tell you something there
at work, we support people all across US, Canada, and Mexico. People under 40 in Quebec have much better english than most of those older than that.
yes for sure because the world has become much more globalized and they have tapped into that and understand that
just, I think joual still flourishes in places like Tadoussac where my hubby's family has summer places.
oddy, in Mexico, even along border, not as much English spoken. Part of that is sounds of Spanish and English much farther apart than French and English, i think.
yes it probably does but it is dying out
of course, even in the Quebec hinterland there is now TV and radio where better French is spoken.
when i was young, we could only get TV from Quebec where my family's summer place is in NY.
I think that the internet with regards to the younger generations has helped that along
i used to watch my cartoons in French while i was there. I think that's part of why i comprehend better than i speak.
indeed, just
but there were local english stations too ...the CBC in both languages and depending on your age..ctv....
this was in the 70s
where was your summer place dc?
but still -- tabarouette, câlinne-de-binne, etc...
CTV was in place for sure at that time
OH i got the 8 no help woot
one in Dundalk, one up near Plattsburgh
lol jilli
go, lady!
No English stations anywhere near Tadoussac
Plattsburgh I know well but never heard of Dundalk
Dundalk is in Wetern NY, below Buffalo, in Chautauqua County, on Lake Erie
oh ok that's why then lol
good for you, herin -- I still need it
think fractions jilli
Jill do you want a clue? (not glue which is what i first wrote)

awwww jilli, that sounds so lovely
and primulas
and hi lady, how are you doing?
not many croci here this year yet, oddly. normaly they bloom early Feb.
lovely jilli....we'll see those withing the next ohh, 6 to 8 weeks depending on how un/lucky we are!
*within
I remember, just! I also remember snow in April...
Really good. I sent Mr Pres a letter
sprite, I have a question for you... once you have joined facebook, how do I find the games & what group do the babblers use?
but daffodils will be out soon here
here too, dc
well at least in april we don't get the -30 temps so let it snow lol
The seasons are changing here
we're BabblersWorldwide in facebook, might be with a space
Hi Everyone!
ty dc
hi marmar
the babblers can be found at Babblers Worldwide. Easiest is when another babbler invites you to the real fun games, I think.
Guten Morgen, Marmar!
HI Marmar
hi Marmar
on the news tonight they said that this year...with the amount of snow we've received and the frigid temps in between the snowfalls, the snow dump sites won't be cleared of snow til August!!!!!
so please tell me again about global warming, LOL.
hi MarMar my namesake!
oh, i lived through a winter like that in Boston, it was amazing watching it melt in the dums through the summer.
Brrr. The weather turned and i have a 5 foot pile of laundry
not here spritey :(
I am sorry for you, 1Mar, but happy for the world as a whole ;)
think I'd rather have a 5ft pile of snow lol (which I do)
it's much warmer here. We get in March what used to be April, and what was October doesn't arrive untill Nov or early Dec anymore.
hey ladies, we are in the grid!
well the last 3 or 4 winter's here were wussy ones spritey....guess we were due
Id rather have a five foot pile of washing
well, looks like you are both blessed then :)
and it'll be just fine if we get a beautiful spring and summer
oh, fyi, as it came up elsewhere, my name, seain, is pronounced as shane. :)
uppss, phone rang as soon as I sent greeting. Hope everyone is well, or continues getting well!
I knew that, dc!
had i told you before, sprite?
same to you, Marmar.
dc, do you prefer seain or dc? I asked before but didn't see the answer.
no. But I have come across your name before and I remembered.
you may have mentioned it once or twice dc lol! (jk)
Thanks for that clue too Sprite
yw lady :)
ditto Sprite, hadn't seen it!
whichever you prefer, jilli, dc is certainly easier to type :)
Hi Lady!
and to you too, marmar, danke.
this long cold snowy winter has been messing with my mind, so don't mind me!
hehehe, we are kinda hidden, but irrepressable.'
Hi Mar. I guessed you ducked off like i do
ok, dc -- I'm lazy :)
I have a nasty headache this morning. Might call for coffee.
but seain is cool
very cool
Sprite water not coffee unless you are an addict to the stuff
DC, Seain is irish isn't it? I agree Jilli, very cool!
Hello!
HI Carra
Hi Herin!
Hiya carra
ideed it is, marmar, though the ancestor who we thought was from Ireland admitted on her deathbed she lied to immigration, and was actually from the Clwyd Valley of Wales. LOL
hi, carra!
Carra Mia! Good morning (is it morning for you?)
not for me, lady. The only thing that helps when I have a bad headache is coffee. And I am not an addict nor have I ever been... 2 cups a day is max for me and most days I don't reach that amount at all.
Im done with this winter weather! I feel "blah" not motivated to do much
Hi Justmar, DC, Marmar.. ( early early morning... 247am)
lol dc! I remembered because there was a difference between sean and seain.
Hi Sprite!
Sprite I used to be a snarly itch without my coffee
yes, mine is the possesive.
yaaawwwn -- thinking about bed
Isn't it funny DC, what we know, and more, what we don't know about our ancestors!
caffeine helps with headaches
same time here carra
still think it's evening tho
indeed, marmar :) though once we learned that, we could finde the words we knew in the Welesh dictionaries, which we never could in the Irish ones. LOL
for you too, dc? I always feel like a freak, but it is the only thing that helps.
so needing lickety at this point 45 left and basically toast
JIll i love your icon story. 2000 was a leap year cause it was divisible by 4
I took a nap.. fell asleep watching tv lol at 6 woke up at little before 8 . Which I really didnt want to do but just happened
the pieces fell together in a way then! My families heritage on my dad's side is a little murky but some family members are working on it and finding some intersting stuff.
I think you needed it, carra
i take excedrin from my migranes, 250mg aspirin, 250mg acetominophin, an 65mg caffeine
herin, 2000 was NOT a leap year because it was divisible by 400!
ok
I think its just this weather.. its always gloomy
That was something i read.
no, will was a leap year because divisible by 400
2000 was a leap year because it was divisible by 400, not 4.
anyone feel like cluing the w from the top left....I do have the wi 4,8
Ok so my math sucks
lol, seems we all love to share our knowledge of weird facts :)
Plural the Wi
TY Lady
I failed Basic Math. I don't even know my times tables due to moving
2000 WAS a leap year, that's right -- sorry (tired)
ty herein (says red faced) lol
Pretty icon photo 1Mar.
Oh thx marmar!
Thats ok
yes, marmar, my uncle found that 500 years ago, dad's dad's people patrilinerally were jews from friesland who moved to East Anglia; 250 years later, my line came to Virginia, then later Ohio, then back to Virginia.
Ah, Lady, there is hope! If you have children, you can learn along with them. I am learning and re-learning volumes daily!
if every year divisible by 4 was a leap years, we would have a minor difference over the ages. That is why they decided to correct it by excluding the full centuries, unless they were divisible by 400.
yay dc, so you have dutch roots :)
that's so trued marmar
I have one W from the upper left -- sounds like the palest of colours.
Thanks Sprite
the other one is the plural, jilli
indeed so, sprite :) our original family name was Gutreich
it is jilli now pluralize(pluralise?) it
Gutriech rather
ty, sprite -- forgot to change direction
(...looking up Friesland....)
hi, all. I am only barely on the planet. I spoke with my daughter last night....she is expecting her third child.
and lady, you are a smart person. Even if you schooling wasn't entirely up to stats, you are. And you are still learning!
herein helped me there on that one :)
hi angel!
sounds german, rather than dutch or Fries, dc!
Um Angel is that a good thing?
yay angel, congrats!
morning, angel, congrats on the news!
oh congrats and hi angel
SPrite i know i am smart in some things maths not so.
so Ws Walloped, as stid would say
Ithink it is a good thing.
i agree, sprite, though part of Friesland is in Germany, and part in Denmark. The people with that name today mostly live in The Nederlands
good for you, lady. Just wanted to check ;)
That's wonderful Angel!
Angel well congratulations to them. I hope this turns the corner for them
a part of Friesland in Germany??? Errrrrr.....
I am still recommending counseling for both of them.
and part in Denmark???
Dylan's 4th birthday was yesterday, and Ryan is a year old.
Ha, me to Jilli! (Walloped! great word)
ok, you have me baffled. To me, Friesland is in the Netherlands.
angel that is a good thing
you are blessed with grandchildren angel....:) this will not happen for me.
Sprite, you know about those moving borders from ages past....what am I saying, they are still changing from time to time
did anyone find the last 7?
I think they need counselling now even more, Angel... with all the added confusion of hormones out of control and later on disturbed sleeping.
Hello everyone!
HI Jandy
all the way to Denmark, Marmar?
The last seven, volley.... I only got two! LOL!
hi Jandy
Hey herin, hey sprite!
hi jandy
:~)
Sorry, dag Sprite!
I only have 2 7s
is there any ru words?
hi, jandy
Hey Volley!
Hey Volley!
Or is that goodbye, Sprite?
i only have 3
Sprite, I'm looking for a historical map right now, that kind of stuff is SO interesting to me.
me too herein
hehehe Jandy, wonderful! Dag Jandy! Hoe is het?
i've not found any, lady
my daughter is also changing career paths. She plans to become a paralegal, instead of a nurse.
Erg goed, dank je wel!
no Jandy, it can be both. Hello and goodbye. Hello usually is goedendag.
yes, sprite, fisian, and the historic friesland, stretches from modern Netherlands to Denmark
so marvellous, seeing you speak dutch perfectly! I love it, Jandy!
I love those multipurpose greetings in another language. Just one thing to remember!
sounds almost German which sounds almost Yiddish
dc, I never knew that! Thanks :)
I have a little help, spritey! My clogwog friend is Babbling with me, as he often does!
definintion of clogwog?
I only have one 7 so far
Maybe I'm more multilingual than I thought, Just1Mar!
then I say: Hoi, leuk dat je er weer bent! Goed grid vandaag :)
Clog - pertaining to the fine Dutch people - Wog - atrocious Australian term for foreigner
lolol
It's so nice to listen to Dutch when you speak English and German, it's kind of like stepping stone between the two sometimes. Other times, I drown in confusion!
Shortened from Western Oriental Gentleman.
*giggles at clogwog* Sounds like Klukkluk, from Pipo de clown.
great word!
jandy, wog is brit too
Grid neit te moeijelijk!
Pipo de clown, as in the French Pipo?
Lots of things in Australia are British based, jilli, though there is more and more US influence
jilli which 7 do you have? maybe I can help you with another one
no, Pipo the Clown is totally dutch, dc. Very old kids' programme on TV.
watching Australian movies, in many ways, ur more like us than you think.
Close, Jandy! Niet te moeilijk, inderdaad!
ah, i've encounterd in French comic books
j's were on sale today, thought I would throw an extra one in!

Yes, but Australian EST, if that helps!

I do at all hours, just as my other chores allow
Night Just

I'm missing one Q. I have Q5/16, 4/7, 5/16, 5/16, 5/16, 6/27, 6/27, 8/55. What's missing?
1Mar, As I say to my kids: sleep with angels!
Sleep tight, don't let the bedbugs bite!
night just
has lickety finished the list yet?
Another 5/16, angel.
lickety has other things on his mind today, I am afraid.
No list or LIckety working or at the hospital/Family stuff?
another 5/16 after the monarch, angel
sprite, have you heard any more about mrp?
nothing yet, jilli. Am worried.
actually, it was the monarch I needed to finish the Q's.
Well, it will take time to get news, I think
Mr Pres was online this am. She was using the net cafe before treatment
oh lol, angel!
I'm out of the loop, has something happened to Mr. P?
sprite do you know what they decided to do for treatment?
Marmar Mr Pres arm is bad again shes in hospital getting it fixed. I have eye of bast for her
no, I have no idea, Dee. There was talk about antibiotics again, but am not sure that is what they decided upon in the end.
My goodness, I hadn't heard. I'm so sorry.
What Lickety said was three days in hospital with iv's and six months of home nurse care
my heart hurts for her... for them...
thanks BabbleRabble. Good to see you. It is incredibly tough on both of them.
They've have so many hurdles placed in front of them...God bless them.
ditto that marm
What a beautiful last verse that poem has, BR. And appropriate when times are tough!
I'm still missing a Q -- a 5/16, I think -- the 4th or 5th one maybe, probably before the repetition
I'm going to go back to bed. back later to finish, and I will also post Babble Stats for the month and year-to-date.
Total of 5 x 5/16 jilli
night angel, and thanks
Bye Angel!
bye Angel, sleep well
THanks Babbe
I sent her a letter today
Good night then angel! Sleep well
SOrry my L is stuck
Jandy, I know, and I'm missing one of them
Add a vowel to the 4/7? or do you have that one
Night ANgel
Jandy, you're right, that poem is beautiful, never read it completely.
have that, jandy. Maybe it's the one after that.
Ah, the recreational pastime popular on cruise ships?
that's it, jandy -- thanks!
You're welcome! The under 40s would never get that allusion.
Qs Quonquered
hey! I'm under 40 and get that allusion :P
I am thinking of going for a whie.
Ah, ha, Sprite, remember a few days ago, maybe a week, we were talking about those who have so much suffering in life?
Lucky you, ata. Twice! LOL!
i'm missing a w... from the top. any ideas?
Plural
hi Ata
Plural, hillary
and hi LOL
oh thanks!
gave it a while ago, hillary -- sounds like the palest of colours (and pl)
I remember, Marmar. It never rains, but it pours. :(
I got the single from the wrong e and then didn't see the plural for ages.
ata -- beautiful icon -- your design?
same here jandy
yep! a big commission I did a few years ago. Its about a metre squared in size really
Ata is that Silly in the box?
this is tricky without the list. where are the 7s... i have only one, re7/32.
yes, that's the monster cat
am close to finishing. Want me to put a stats list on Babanon after finishing?
That same day I read something about St. Peter Damian, an Italian bishop who had a horrendous childhood and yet became a most generous man: here's his thought on human suffering: "Personal experiences of suffering should make us sympathetic to others in need; St. Peter's difficult childhood made him particularly mindful of the poor and lowly." THAT's exactly what you exhibit to others!
would you please sprite
I am stuck with 33 left
Silly is mighty Pretty and im a fur mum
she really is *proud* and she has a vet appt in 2 hours. she'll just hate me
I told my friend that one of her kittys is not cute
I'm over half way and heading for bed -- night all
awwwww Marmar.... thanks for saying so. You actually bring tears to my eyes with it.
good night jill
nite jili ty for helping earlier!
What a lovely compliment, Marmar, and richly deserved! I think the memory of what has happened to you is also important to sympathy and empathy
Nite Jilli, sleep well!
sleep well
Good night jill! Rest well.
Sily is gorgeous. And she will hate you only temporary, Ata, don't worry.
poor friend's kitty!
Ata do you have any little kitty pics?
sleep well, jilli! Happy dreams to you :)
Sprite that would be lovely
44 to go...
Well, you're dear to many people. This whole group of Babblers is outstanding in my opinion! Ok, lovefest over!
hehehe Marmar, I agree. This is one special community.
hi everyone
hi Andree
Hi ANdree
one more I from the second row right... i have a a 4/4 and a 6/30. What am I missing, please?
you mean sily as a kitten?
Hiya Andree!
*poof* [blowing kisses to all]
the other day I popped into another word game, don't know which one because I left after one glance at the chat, it was so full of vulgar language and crass comments...no way. I came back here!
I think you are missing the 7 that builds on the 4. Brits spelling.
am babysitting AGAIN, grandaughter just put to bed, grandson watching teletubbies, granma babbling
Andree, you are wonderful :D
Marmar.Dr G stomps that sort of behaviour
http://silver-claws.deviantart.com/ <- Silverclaw's dA account!!
It's great, isn't it?!
(lucky Marmar wasn't here for the Dutch ovens conversation the other night, sprite!)
there's some baby pics on there
grinnnn Marmar can handle fun. That is not what she means ;)
That's good! And I agree, there's fun and there's filth, and the latter is hardly ever the former!
don't worry sprite your turn will come, 1 minute you have little children and the next they have children
I actually think I caught a part of that as I was zipping back and forth by the computer you two...
Ata your cat is really into getting that tinse
am looking forward to it, Andree. Seems to me the best part of kids... ;)
Ata, one of my sons is a graphic designer who has some pics on deviantart... it's a great site.
No, what I mean is that blatant "troll" type talk.
lol Marmar... and I am right, right? That was fun.
definitly better than parenting
oh jandy? what's his name on dA?
Me too, and I'm a lot closer than you Sprite. Plan on getting them high on red cordial and hot dogs then sending them home.... revenge is sweet....
Well his name is Andrew Law, and I think he might just use that...
i use chocolate and don't make them brush their teeth,lol
exactly, Jandy! All the fun and none of the worries.
OH Silly is so pretty
Excellent, Andree!
so he does, jandy :)
And a little to into getting that tinsel
I know I'm biased cos Sily is mine, but really, yes, she's an incredibly pretty cat
i am just waiting to be old enough and silly enough to embarras my kids , that revenge will be very sweet
If there are currently any pics of him making ridiculous faces, ata, it was nothing to do with his upbringing. Really.
wups, I am way past my limit. I better be starting my chores. Take care everyone, I wish you a fantastic day.
lol Andree!
http://tinyurl.com/2m5lrq is this your Kitty Ata?
bye Marmar, have a great day too! *hugs*
Ata she is pretty and im a kitty mum
Bye Mar
Oh, I started that program early Andree. My sons were bigger and taller than me when they were ten, so I used shame as discipline..
actually you're quite safe Jandy. Just Death Cult logos and lots of red and black!
nope, thats too big for Sily
Used to drop them at college (age 16 or so) and yell "Bye Bye sweety, mummy loves you so much" out of the window when they were painful!
Looks like her
lol jandy
Right, dinner date calls. Bye all, thanks for the chat! Back tomorrow to finish off.
it does. not as pretty though
bye jandy
did someone say there is a q8, if so could i have a clue
Qu math
there is, Andree. Divide 8 by 4 and the answer is your answer.
and I am done, fireworks. Off to make you guys stats.
Yah Sprite
thx sprite and herin
and I must go to walk the wiggly monster
bfn, Ata! *hugssss*
I'll be back!
Later Ata

ok, they are here: http://babblersanonymous.yuku.co m/topic/443/master/1/
I feel blind tonight
sprite, thanks so much! stuck on 25
thanks, babble, that's sorted the one on the right... any clues for the one on the left?
some aren't easy to spot today, Dee
ty so much... feeling like a dummy tonight
don't, it is not you, it is the grid
found them... does anyone need clues for the i's?
ty ty
or am i the only i-dunce?
hillary, you might be missing the it4 and the it7 that builds on it.
so not amused
hilary i am still missing one i from rhs, have the 2 just clued
okay got it
hey all
ho sog
looks like it went ok, with posting the stats. Have fun all, and happy babbling. Hi and bye bfsog ;)

thx sprite
thanks sprite
mete
oops sorry, off to the penalty box
sigh
what's up herin?
Friday night irrits
is friday worse than other nights? I find them all equally irritating.
We have to move and yet my house mate still wants to roll play. We have to get up early and i just want peace and quiet
we haven't moved in 15 years now... i just can't begin to imagine how horrific it would be.
Well it shites me to tears i just need tonight to be quite
what do you mean by your house-mate 'roll playing'?
sound a bit saucy herin
Dungens and Dragons.
Not really
are you moving to a cool new place?
We are looking but this is why im annoyed we need to be up at 7am
hell is other people... which often means housemates.
Indeed but when its friday night and you just want to chill and have silence it doesn't work
never got into d&d
Its not just that game
well hell is this grid at the moment for me... i've gotta go take my teenage drama queen to the theatre with her high school drama class. might come back and try to find remaining 32... herin tell your housemate to bugger off and leave you alone.
Cant
Later Hillary
Just have to wait until the 18th of April and then im FREEEEEEEE,
hi herin I'm here to listen
WESt hello. IM just freaking about moving and the organisation factor. Im also worried about Mr Pres
I am too don't know the story very well has she had trouble before?
Its her arm. She has had an infection and so forth and it has flared up again
do they have children?
YEs two lovely children and te wonderful Lickety
it's hard taking care of little ones when you're not 100%
he seems like an angel don't think I've ever seen her here
They are 8 and 10 i think
Mr Pres is so lovely. I sent her a letter today. A real letter
she should enjoy that it's so nice to get something to open besides email
Yes. I find letters are a lot more special when sick
How are you today?
Also i scored the two thumbs up in the cool girlfriend award
pretty good the builder is coming in the afternoon and bringing his a/c guy with him
more money
mmm money bad
but it's better to do it while everything is torn up
we sold our house and have a little money left over so we're doing the kitchen here
sod
I want you to know we took several boxes and bags to our charity shop today
Well done
so it's a start
Yes it is. Brb must get dvd and dinner and turn the heater up
but last night I spied an old kerosene lamp on the top of a shelf
ok
Clues are up!
Late cause I took the kids to the hospital to see mrp - we had dinner and hung out for about 4 hours
no news yet - just waiting on the Dr
thx lickety, how is mrp
Hello LIckety - thanks for clues and give best wishes to mrpresident!
thanks everyone - gotta run back to kids
yes thank you from me too I wish mrp all the best and you and the kids too must be hard on all of you
bye lickety
hi haz
Hello Andree.
hi haz and andre going to look at the list
Good Morning Babble!!!
hi pink
Good evening Andree!!
Hello pink - I'm going back to silent observation....
Good Morning Haz, happy lurking :)
and i am going to have some dinner, 60 left will get list soon
enjoy andree!!
No, silent observation sounds better than lurking. The same way a self-scheduling domestic overseer sounds better than a housewife. Anyway, back to it!
LOL
Lickety if you are there i sent stuff to you
HI
hello lady!!
am i the only one having problems with Babble this am?
Hello Just eating tea
and watching a movie
Pink how are you?
hi herin wb been searching the list
hi pink too
did you find anything? \
no
im good, im waiting for a delivery this am. I ordered a nice black and silver microwave, kettle and toaster set to match and a jumper for my mum, for Sunday and its taking forever. Should have arrived yesterday!
that bad huh?
been checking things off
hello west!!
I am watching an aussie flick and they referenced another awesome movie
lots of good aussie flicks what are you watching?
I am watching Metal Skin
is it about robots?
No
Cars
makes sense
I have a friend in Perth she plays here under Ossie have you met her?
anyway she sent the trailer to a Hindi movie that looks fantastic
Jodhaa Akbar have you heard of it?
OSSSIE yes indeed
The movie was going to be called Speed but well that was nicked by a yank
that was a great movie though..Speed
this movie is just weird
lots of car chases?
Um drag racing and that kinda of thing. google Metal Skin and have a look
will do can't find another word to save my life
http://tinyurl.com/24uk78
This is it
right, im entering stealth mode aka lurking
Its a bit nasty in some parts but i like it
No stealth
I just found it on Rotten Tomatos the guy is kind of cute
The IMDB site is better
I just read an article in the Washington Post about several people killed while watching a drag race nasty stuff
ok I'll check that one out
Yes indeed
that was better
started to tell you a story when you had to leave about the kerosene lamp
long story short I put it in my laundry basket to bring upstairs and didnt' realize it was still full got kerosene all over everything
Oh no that is very annoying
I am sharing a very small space with the kitty
does she want some of your dinner
I have had it
the annoying part is it hadn't evaporated must have been there for years
She wanted to sit in the warmth of my seat so i let her
Oh dear west
our old Jenny cat likes to sit on my lap with the laptop
she's 18
Oh wow that is old and good for the kitty
she's outlived her 'husband' and son both looked just like your Pandora
loved the video
Oh wow. Pretty. Thanks
That and i think she wants cuddes
Disney ( that was his name ) had one blue eye and one green eye he was such a handsome boy
Pretty
the cat in the picture is KC he found us
KC is pretty and fluffy
he is such a doll
I think the kitty wanted to be scritched
jenny hates him of course
have you seen the video of Nora the piano playing cat?
you'd love it I believe it's on Utube
zYEs i ahve
Why do kittys have to squish themselves into the smallest space. I do feel privileged that she wants to sit with me
she has such a great personality reminds me of your cat
how old is she looks pretty young
Shes about a year we think. She was found as a palm sized ball of fluff
like KC
will you have trouble getting a new place with a pet?
They no nothing about the kitty
easier to sneak in a cat than a big dog
I could never understand people who won't allow pets they are part of the family
People think that pets are destructive have you seen the damage little kids can do?
yes, first hand lol
pets and kids are as good as the people who raise them
I didn't get the place i wanted due to the fact that we are too young
oh that's too bad
how can they discriminate like that
so you'll get a place you'll like even better
Cause we will trash the place obviously
that's just not fair
they would probably have been terrible landlords then
do you have security deposits?
Yes
We have everything sorted
no I meant do you have to pay one when you rent
so if there is any damage they take it out of that
Yes there is one month bond and one month rent in advance
pretty much the same here
very expensive to move
don't you like where you are now?
Sorry i had to refresh. I am hopping to stay in this area but right at this moment in time its a case of take anything
well the good thing is you've cleaned out a lot of junk
so you'll start with a clean slate
I did
I'm very proud of you
I did indeed. I just cant believe how much we are searching for a place.
have you gone to an agency or are you doing it on your own
There isn't anyone here to help unless you are already renting through an agent. But we are privately renting
I wish you all the luck in the world you deserve to have the place you want
do you have a time limit?
Yes 18th of April that is why i am pissy about guests tonight
well you have one extra day..today
where are you..near what big city that I would know
I am near a major center. I don't like to say exactly were here
ok
I am looking at places now. Do you have MSN or Yahoo chat?
it's almost 6 a.m. here Friday the 29th and I haven't been to bed yet so I'd better go and try to get a little sleep
no I don't have those I really need to get with the times
Drat. West before you go
I'm still here
drat i cant copy and paste my net just died

www.realestate.com.au property Number: 403165195 i love this place

I didn't think it was that bad..need to take another look

I agree lol maybe they'd let you change it love the high ceilings
I love the high ceilings.
Maybe but i like the wall paper in a bad way
I was just looking at the little pictures didn't realize I could click on them
would the furniture come with?
Oh and wall paper is a nightmare to get off the walls
I know
ITs fun to get off isnt it
fun when it comes off in nice big sheets
which it hardly ever does
You always get this piddly little strips
Plus i would not mind doing up a place if its do able
I know we have some pretty ugly paper here and we'll be taking off eventually
the bedrooms are okay..kind of white on white
is your b.f. handy or would you do it yourself?
Nice. Dratted cat just scared the heck out off me
I would love a garden to have room to plant stuff
what did she do?
Knocked over crap
this house seems to have possibilites
That is a good thing West
so now what do you have to do put your names on a list?
Yes we do have to look then apply
I have a good feeling about this one how about you?
I have no idea about much at the moment
keep the faith herin you'll get something you'll love
we are looking but we are going to be mega busy tomorrow
em**
opps
I really need to get some sleep but before I go I had a thought about your necklaces...have you checked the head of the bed between the mattress and box spring?

HI Cool did babble expert work?
they were insults used to describe matt drudge...
Hi everyone.
morning scrabs
morning scrabbler
HI Scrabbs.
yes it did ty so much for your help
How is your nephew?
Hi, Scrabbs.
Ok I ahve No idea who that is googling now
gosh just noticed the time i have to fix breakfast for hubby soon
HI Scrabbler. Glad to help
A woodpecker is outside on the suet feeder and he is making so much noise.
i haven't seen a woodpecker in this area in years, so be glad you still haven 'em! 8-)
Peter is much improved and will be discharged to home this AM. He will continue on oral antibiotics for another week or so.
Carlee i have no idea as to that conversation.
Oh Scrabber that is not good
Has he decided to become a traveling nurse??
I have downy, hairy and pileated woodpeckers around here.
LOL..
hello friends....
HI Lori.
Haha, RTH--he is asking a lot of medical questions now, but the challenge is that he does not like math at all.
hi lori ann
Hi Lori Ann.
hi lori scabbler
oh...was a cnn reporter trashing matt drudge for breaking media silence on prince harry..he let a string of aussie slang rip and I didn't catch it all but none were very ncie
HI Loriann
Dang, why is it Micro$oft hiccups that make me have to restart, can't make Babble say I'm done after said restart? :-)
And it is only 5 degrees F here so I am wondering whether to cross-country ski this afternoon??
Well, then being a nurse would be easy, very very little math involved beyond Basic 7th grade algebra., really.
was was the aussie slang?
G'd morning Scrabbler, Lori
suh-weet! about someone slamming matt drudge that is hee hee
My cat is such a moron she just fell of the ledge
bullard and dagus that I heard...
Hi Lorip, Queen of Nova Scotia.
Ok let me have a look at this as i have bog all idea
i don't like drudge but I go to his site every day for news..
I see Peter is better Scrabbler. This is a good thing.
Scrabbs...We are also only reading 5 degrees here in central PA!!!! There goes the advice from yesterday to get outside and get some sunshine!!! I'm a chicken when it comes to the cold!!!!
RTH---maybe he will keep thinking about it.
why patronize someone with no morals?
OK so it was a reporter trashing him?
Oooh Lori, are you close to say Gettysburg area? My paretns are coming home tothat are soon and will have a bad awakening.
LAyers, Lori Ann!
we have snow here and 21 degrees (Fahrenheit) which is too cold!
yeap.... the aussie reporter with the really crooked nose who reports ALL Time from iraq of aphghaistan
Well, Scrabbler I hope he feels better, and if he was lacking an interest maybe something int he hospital will spark an interest...
For once it is getting warmer in NM...
( I like to read stories from all sides...I read algazeera every day too )
Redturtlehead...we are about 3 hours away from gettysburg.
Ok im having a look now
i read super conservative and super liberal..somewhere in there is the truth
I grew up in Shippensburg.
RTH, where are you in NM?
I will try the layers scrabbs!!!
good morning. Gwen, it's balmy where you are.....-16 degrees here and expecting, surprise, surprise, yet another snow storm. At least it's covering up the ice so walkingis possible again.
godthaab, I am currently working in Espanola, and have the joy of living in Chimayo....
thats cool Rth...I know alot of people who attended the university there.
21 ain't balmy, not for a warm-blooded mammal at least LOL
Is that near Taos?
Yes, very near Taos and Chama.
As i wasn't here i have no idea Carlee
Great mountain scenery through there!
but not like Taos, I should add.
Man i need to kick people out
glad i have a working furnace-thing
Yes, It is pretty but I am mighty glad it is temporary.
its ok herin
Ducted heating with couch over it. mmm toasty
Oooh mentor is a good phantom today.
Temporary?
gm all
HI Nance
hi nance
hey herin
hey carlee
cat just jumped on my head
lol
declawed?
GOD no that is so cruel
( i agree herin)
it is - i had i done once but never again
Silly cat! Bunny Sebastian jumps on me during the night, especially if I try to sleep in.
No she flew about half an inch from my head
yesterday I excavated the closet to get to the door to get to the furance to get to the filter to change it. landlord never changes it. it had pretty much a solid layer of paper-like crud on it. yuck! thinking i should mail it to landlord anonymously
i heard they break their little toes
they cut off the END of their toes
ewww and that is bad
take off first knuckle
You can buy Soft Paws for kitties now
I like that idea book
I
thanks, infernal 8-)
or you can just say I have a cat. Cats have claws. Therefore I must deal with scratching if I want a cat
Yuck, BDG--that should be changed monthly---it will make the furnace more efficient too---lower cost.
u train them not to... water guns as a kitten..and a good scratching post
woops...had to take a phone call...and was in the wrong box to type. LOL at least I didn't type a word in this time!!!
scrabbler, yep, the new filter i bought is a monthly filter. i don't relish changing it every month since the door to get at it is not really a door so much as a huge piece of plywood with no good place to grab it
SOft paws are a great option but my cat has grown up on lino so she is used to not clawing its my bleeding couch that cops it
wrap it up in tin foil, the unshiny side out
wrap up the cat or the couch, atalante?
LOL both would be a good idea!!
As Dc says you can always recover the couch
the couch. if there are any bits she concentrates on
well, i have a few words to go, must get to my daily chores, bye noe
Very temporary godthaab, I have about 5-6 weeks left.
bye BDG!
Have a nice day BDG..
bye gwen
We do have a post and i do need to get the claws trimmed but we will deal
hey red & atalante
hi nance.
I am so not liking this puzzle today!!!
its better than yesterday's!
hey lori
I didn
it is better then yestedays
I never heard of the actual procedure for declawing that is awful
woops....I did'nt mind the one yesterday.
declawing is horrendous, and should be banned
It is in your country Ata
yeap....my furniture and rugs are fine... water guns work
My cat loves the water
yes. and i'm very grateful for that. i was horrified the first time i heard of it happening
I hated yesterdays, and once again did not finish...I just have a lto of crud to do.
( well ur cats are weird..we already KNOW that <giggle> :op~~~~~ )
It's not a very interesting puzzle today.
Poor little kitty feet. Carlee my cat often hits the glass
i didn't mean to start an uproar - i don't believe in it either
Words are not jumping out at me.
I just waited to see where Silverclaw decided she wanted to scratch and then coated those areas with some carpet off-cuts. So she can scratch where she wants, but no damage is done
I strongly agree Inge!!!
Keep sipping the coffee Scrabbler.
Nance thank you for telling me
I am craving a visit to Caribou Coffee, or even StarBucks. Will have to drive into Santa Fe.
Maybe I need some coffee also RTH!!!
it is a boring one
The people demand intriguing words to keep their interest!
Ok im off i have to clean up and kick people out
I'm good with boring, too much chaos in life right now.
I did recently notice that QU tile.
late herin
later * rather

bye scrabbs... and soo n I must leave work.
yay angel
moi aussi.
Good afternoon/morning all. Apologies for the icon and its effect on the digestive system.
argh! thats almost as bad as THE DRESS
I knew you'd love it!
its quite something
hey haz
brb I need tea after that shock
Isn't it? I didn't use the thong one on the grounds of decency and the unwillingness to send people to hospital.
Oh no! Oh well, at least he's not wearing a thong, Haz.
Another Stringfellow fan!
On the other hand, Jacula, who knows WHAT he's wearing in that photo. He doesn't look comfortable, if you ask me.
Photos of Barbara Cartland have much the same effect on me. I always thought there ought to be a warning on the page before her picture.:(
Poor woman - she pioneered the fresh-faced no make up look.
And never really got the credit for it.
http://tinyurl.com/39tpmf
Could she be an icon for qu5/16 of romance?
I suppose she could, Haz.
Ok signing off until the end of work. Bye.
'Bye, red.
bye red - take care & hurry back
back with a fortifying cup of tea. I think I can handle the Stringfellow thing now
Ata - click on this http://tinyurl.com/39tpmf
And now, Atalante, you have to see Barbara's pic.
:D
*dies*
*Sends ambulance to Ata's.*
Death by make-up
LOL
She certainly used to trowel it on!
this one is better: http://tinyurl.com/yvu4on
Ooooh, Barbara wars
AARGH!
see the trowelling in close up!
good morning!
Good morning as!
Ata - http://tinyurl.com/387k7q
hi haz - how are you today?
hey asgreen
Hello, asgreen.
hi Nance and Jac and Ata
hiii
I'm fine thanks. Just studying the picture of Barbara for make-up tips.
It's a mere 17 degrees (F) today....and another little storm is brewing
Hi all......am back to finish the second...but still can't see the qu8......clue please?
*sudden brilliant idea*
who is barbara? please don't say "the first mom"
it's 43 degrees (F) here
The poor woman was obviously suffering from cataract or something - either that or she got made up in the dark. Kind of lipstick by faith.
lol flask - I didn't even see the Q yet!
Hello Flask!
Oh no! What's Ata going to do now?
hey flask
***holds breath for Ata to share brilliancy***
brb
Four letters the same as the preceding qu words, a vowel then a number rearranged.
Morning babble!
*Resists the temptation to photoshop a pic of Haz.*:D
*looks around for fm to be a co-conspirator*
Oh, please do resist.
Good morning Uniquity.
I'm trying really, really hard to resist, Haz.
hi Uni
Well, try harder, Jacula!
I'm not *grins*
resisting, that is
thanks Haz!
Okay, Haz. I'll look for my last 4 words. (Ata can get the blame instead!)
Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. Here's where all my mocking catches up with me.
You're welcome Flask - windy and rainy with you as well?
Tee hee hee.
go Jac go!
hello all
Hello jakes-mum!
Hi J-M!
Very, Haz!
Hi JM
We had a poor man up on our roof today fitting a new aerial, he deserved danger money.
ok, haz, fm and I give in. PLease email a suitable photo over to me!
A suitable photograph of me, you mean?
Yes, Haz's pic pixillates.
yep!
Any particular pose?
wonder if I can cartlandise spangle as well
I want a pic, too!
'cartlandise'. I like that word!
just a nice one! With a smile
*flinging arms around Spangle*
Okay, let me see what I can find.
woot!
I feel like you all are speaking a different language! maybe I haven't had enough coffee yet?
Sorry, asgreen.
ah, so you ARE??!! :)
babblese
"Have tea, will babble" - hi all !
good morning mont!
Hello montreal!

Thank you, montreal. Handsome, isn't he? (He's a well known nightclub owner with a penchant for leopardskin - does that paint a picture?)
Asgreen, Hours spent on babble = too many to count!
I await the treatment, Ata.
Pic of Haz? *Cackles with laughter.*
it does hazel, it does...
absolutely flask - and too many to admit to the "outside world"
*goes quiet for a few minutes*
lol jacula...
lol...EXACTLY!!!
Thanks for the pic., Haz. Those flicky out bits on your hair are a b*gger to 'cut' around. LOL
I must speak to the hairdresser.
Yes, make it nice and straight for photoshopping.:D
Maybe we should aim for a Stringfellow look. Or a Cartland cut?
Don't tempt Ata like that, Haz.
I was considering turning George into Peter S for you ...
bottom row all greyed-out ! Youppi !
Some day I will learn not to make suggestions. DON'T TOUCH GEORGE!
yay mont - so, you now have 3 words? lol just kidding

plural of the am4 above it for the last one
it is the pl of the arabic prince nance

oh, i agree. not good to deprive yourself of sweets/desserts (or really anything you crave). just have to do it in reasonable portions... my problem is that i havent had much willpower lately!
ah....see... I get a craving....make whatever it is I crave WHEN I crave it...have one..or 2...then...that it craving done and I DON"T want to look at it again for a couple months... I give it all away..my neighbours LOVE me
thats why i want to get that small-batch baking book. you can make enough cake for 1-2 servings or just a few cookies instead of a few dozen...
hi all

me6 is similar to previous me6 - change a vowel and switch them
I have to get started on my day...bye bye all!
that was me4/5
Oh, I don't have that 6 either
bye for now nonnie
phand the first me6 is my icon
? I am so confused now, I thought that was the 2nd ME 6. I need the 1st and the 3rd
first me6 is the one who me4/5 before it
ok, just figured out the 3rd one
well, who would have thought that would be a word?
not me for sure
Good morning everyone
anyway, I have all 3 me 6's now and I am gonna go clean my house as my oldest's boyfriend is coming for a visit this weekend
how lovely phand, have a good time
not sure why they call themselves boyfriend/girlfriend as they never see each other. He goes to VT and she lives in MD (well, we). They met in Alaska during a mission trip and have seen each other only 2x since then
that mission trip was last summer
does anyone notice how I am playing the avoidance game?
lol, know that game all too well

Phantom amnesia
wb nance, was getting lonely here
thanks
hi there jane
hey jane
does anyone in here redeem pepsistuff points?
i do mycokerewards but the pepsistuff site is awfully confusing
not me nance, don't drink pepsi
i got my grandson a telescope for Christmas with mycokerewards points
i don't either flosey but my husband does
i drink diet coke - i'm not a coffee drinker
how do you get those points?
quit
sorry
ah, we don't drink any pop, but am coffeeholic
for cokes?
we need babble reward points
now that would add up fast jane
love your icon jane - would that have been the very beginning of Sadie Hawkins Day?
for cokes - register at mycokerewards.com and collect bottle tops (3 points) or 1 end of a 12-pk fridge pack (10 points) of the top of a 24-pk (20 points)
i don't know, but it's the first time i heard of it!
coke rewards ends after this year - i don't know about the pepsi site - it's awfully confusing
I know the it 7 builds off of the it 4, but I can't find it.
ok, back to the grid - ugh - lol
Ah, must be a British spelling
does anyone have an icon clue today?
merk i got it, did you?
I do jane
what is an icon clue?
Morning all: it7: I requested that the seller it7 the invoice.
morning judi
click on player's icons nance, they'll give you a clue if they have one
you take a word from the grid and make an icon out of it
how in the world do you do that?
y'all are something else - very learned - lol
hello
hi mlf
hey ml
you find a word in the grid nance, then create an icon that suits the word

oh Scarlet, still in the doldrums?
YES, I'M VERY DOWN....YOU ALSO?
Hi there Pabtrek
oops. dog helping me out with caps lock...
Yes, flosey... but gamely going on with life being life... wish I could shake it, but I am committed to giving it some time and waiting for the sun! Thank you for the enquiry... how are you?
scarlet and red, why not call a friend and go out for a nice lunch
great thanks Scarlet
Red... I have been one of the most positive people on Earth... lately, it's more of a shoulder shrug and ennui... blah!
nice idea, but ofcourse i live in the middle of nowhere...
that has always been my feeling Scarlet - you are always so positive
Flosey, as a matter of fact red is coming through Asheville in April, and WE are meeting for lunch! How's that for a nice turn of events?
scarlet,me too. i have had a tonne of disappointments lately though.
how wonderful, you'll have a great time together
BRB
Glad to hear that, flosey! I can count on you to always be upbeat! {hugs}
:D i am looking forward tothat!
So am I, dear... it should be fun!
i would hope we wouldbe out of our respective funks. Have you tried George CLinton?
Bless you, flosey.
FLosy you are wonderful...
even if I can not spell
did you know that Stid came up to Salt Spring Island to visit Jilli and (sorry, name eludes me), and Dilly and I met them for dinner one night
Teh George Clinton of jazz music, red?
I was thinking of Parliment Funkadelic Fame...
She put up the photos on her site, flosey, and what a beautiful group of women!
did he do jazz too!!
I am more into Jimmy Buffett and John Legend, lately...
Flosey, it sounds like fun.
yes, oh how frustrating when I can't remember a name, she was so well known on the Island here - has recently moved to Victoria
HETTY - got it
LOL... dear Hetty... it's one of those days, flosey...
I like Jimmy Buffett, too, been mostly ipoding it with motown...
miss me?
He is an amazing story-teller, red... and many of his songs remind me of some Babblers... others, I relate to Pink Floyd or classical music...it's an oddity of my head...
Hi, MLF... you disappeared!
em 4/5 the first one please?
never been a pink floyd fan, but i love classical, most days...
just plural it mlf
hi Scarlet, sorry got called away before I saw your greeting
i pluralled the em 4/5 to make the 5/12

I'd better toddle off, need breakfast then away to carpet bowling - I thought it was something 'old people' did but alas, guess I'm one of them
'Tis all right, pabtrek... I know you are such a nice person... Hello! :-)
Carpet bowling just intrigues me, flosey...it sounds like so much fun!
bye flosey have fun
what is carpet bowling??
it is fun Scarlet - I was pleasantly surprised
you are too kind, Scarlet
Old is a state of mind, and your mind is about 30 years old, flosey...
Not at all, pab... nice is nice. Period! LOL :-)
lol, thanks Scarlet - much younger than my kids!
BRB again
LOL... that's the only way I can keep up, flosey! Have a wonderful time today!

fighting a cough and cold tho
hubby has had is since last weekend
i resemble that remark scarlet lol
guess it was only a matter of time

You know, P2H... some days, if we can say "okay", it's better than rotten or bad... LOL, MLF
Is it the flu bug, P2?
clues for the am 6 and 7 please?
yeah but scar that is like oranges and apples to some people
A + where gold is dug out...
i odnt think their related praise
don't think so--but then i have a hard time telling the difference between cold and flu
duh forgot the plural
AM 7 + **p and tuck + t*** that barge, lift that bale...
ty scar
priase lots of people have the same problem most people say its a cold when it isnt really the symptoms are abut the same think though
You're welcome, P2.
got all the As now
I can tell the difference... when my bones and muscles are screaming and I feel under water and out of it... it's the flu.
i dont understand the second part to the am 7 clue
Yea for P2H!
Dog has successfully made transition to outside.
David sm*** Goliath
Is he happy now, red?
Difference between flu and cold: Flu hits you very very fast, and cold comes on gradually.
He is marginally happy, I think he also wants to move...
well I think what we have is a cold
Well, I guess you're doing everything you can to make that happen, red.
hubby is on antibiotics
I hote having a cold P2H, I hope you get better soon...
hate.
he got some news he didn't expect from his bloodwork this time around
I hope he is alright P2H?
guess there is a problem with kidney function
still not geting second part of the m 7
they are sending him to a specialist
am
my hubby has a cod too
Oh goodness, Praise. I hopehe can get in soon...
mlf think of a big bag that u use to carry things

AM + musical sound... adding another vowel before the O
well they are setting up an appointment
don't have a date yet
Oh, P2H... sending good thoughts to your husband... I am sorry about that.
Yes, lots ofwell wishes.
they told him that it could be some of the meds that he takes
or could be related to his diabetes
ty scarlet and turtle
The human body is such an enigma...
and his stress at work doesn't help matters either
This is EXACTLY why I love Babble... you listen to the hearts of other people, and it is such a leveler to your own bag of cats... it is a perspective that I gain from your own pains and troubles. Thank for that, P2H... {{Hugs}}
Scarlet, you have a bag of cats? thats a huge problem there....!
aww ty Scar
LOL turtle
I was just going to say that
LOL, red... you're welcome, P2H!
I couldn;t resist.

MLF has flitted out I believe.
I say mares nest, but no one really gets it...

Glad you found it, MLF.
first em 4/5 please
me too scar phew
Do you watch Law and Order, Criminal Intent, MLF? It's the lady cop's last name... (sounds like it)
It's definitely winter still-- it's snowing right now. And my spring break isn't until April 7th because I'm student teaching and I get it at the same time as the school in which I am placed. My University has spring break this coming week, but I still have classes.
EM + b**t wishes on doing the grid.
One of our daughters is a teacher, april, and she absolutely loves it... it's more of a vocation for her.
ty got it
:-) MLF>
I want to teach special education
Ty Scarlet
Daughter has a very big heart for the children who are being mainstreamed with other classrooms... she seems to have a special touch... you must be one of those rare individuals who gravitates toward those who need you most, april.
Swoons atthe mention of Law and order....How is VincentD doing? Have seen no tv for solong now...I cant wait for re runs!!!
YOu're welcome, Bill!\
**blushes** I just like working with that population of kids
good morning everyone:) happy friday!
He is getting a touch porky, red... but, his intensity is the same as ever!
IN 4/4 the first one please
Hello deb!!
Then you are a true rarity, april.
redturtlehead-- did you know you can watch L&O episodes online? If you go to the NBC website, they have full episodes. Who needs T.V. ??!??
how you doing Red?
porky, oh no!!!
oh, and very few commercials, too, which makes it actually BETTER than T.V.
The same, red, but not worse... How are you?
I tried it April and I could not find Land O CI...
hi deb, I am ok...
Yes, his face is filling out, and he has cut his hair shorter so the proportional balance is "off", red.
Oh no...Poor Vincent, he needs a trainer....
I have one to send him.
IN the first one please and a clue for the IN 6 please
glad it's friday, it was a tough, emotional week. and i don't know what to do about a boy that doesn't treat me too well. oh i know what i should do, but it's hard to let go.
He needs a severe ego-reduction while he's at it... but, his character has developed nicely in the series... I keep seeing him in MIB... LOL
men are very difficult deb.I sympathize with you heartily.
Sorry to hear that, debjed. I hope you are able to get some rest and relaxation this weekend. It sounds like you need it.
Him or his character?
deb... listen to your brain... the heart often sends mixed messages...
Him, red... that's why the show hired on another team to offset the crushing film schedule...
I don't have those yet MLF, or I'd help you out.
Chris Noth and his ever-changing series of partners...
ty anyway april
I guess I missed all the films...
In 6= In + the village..
but he is my first and only tvcrush soi dont want to ruin it.
Or, small city...
april i am working on getting others words in teh meantime anyway
If you like him, red, hair or weight won't make any difference...
ty got it
well, he is just eye candy Scarlet, so hair and weightmatter...if hewere a realperson to me, then thatwould fade away....
:-)
scar do you have a clue for the 1st in 4/4?
IN + men wear a **e
ty again
:-)
mlf - going by the count, you could have tried all the possibilities in that time; they were limited
what does the 8 start with?
red, do you know ANYthing yet about Florida?
Ok, i need to make one more last ditch call to Hospital, and then try to sleep because Imust run this afternoon...
QU 8
scar does the it 7 expand from the 4 or 5 it?
Yes...
It was the first word I saw.
What I know about Florida.
I am waiting on a liscene, sould come in 3-4 weeks.
It expands from the 4/5, and spell the ending the British way, MLF
I amsubmitted to one hospital. they called toschedule an interview, and have not called back since then, btu the job is open.
ty scar
I am very very angry at J.
:-)
Which is affecting my job search.
i got that 8, thank you:)
Sounds very iffy, red... did they give you an encouragement in the job search?
Yea, deb!! :-)
It is always iffy in this situation.
that would be two vowels right scarlet?
My resume is very very good. So theres not an issue there, but timing and all the other hassles make itdifficult.
It has two vowels, MLF, but interrupted by a consonant...
Ifall elsefailsthere is a job in Boca Raton, onein Coral Gables and one in Homestead, would all piss J off, which might just be enough for me totake them...
hi all
hi Doxy.
Is J the telephone/internet man?
HI, Doxy!
I am going to go be productive for a while. I enjoyed the chat with you all. I'll hopefully be back later to find the last 66 words. Have a great day, everyone!

Hello, Haz.

Good morning/afternoon all - hello Scarlet!
tx hazel !
He's a storyteller, Luc, and his music is often about the sea and the small snapshots of life...
isnt that another spelling for that word i thought it had a z isntead?
Hi scarlet. Just popped in to see how many words there were. I was helping my sister with a catering contract yesterday (and Wed) so haven't been here for a couple days. Things are good, Luc!
which i know isnt in the grid
TY Haz
This is the proper, British spelling....
You're welcome, bill - is it windy your way?
have to go to work now. see you all later.
mlfan, lots of words ending in se in english have been americanised by a ze ending...
Very I have the fence tied up!
Later, doxy!
later doxy !
A wise precaution - it's much fiercer today than Tuesday.
does the qu8 build off the previous words?
interesting never thought of that before mont ty
i just had always known that word to have a z not an s
Oh, the pharmacy delivery is here... see you soon.
its the 2nd word in the abbreviation IQ harp
well, I'm off to the spa for a pedicure. BBL. buh-bye
Kind of, harpjane. It means the result of division in maths.
thanks
mlfan, the same with english words with "OUR" are often americanised with "OR" instead...
Bye autumn.
later moon !
Yes, we just read American spellings and weep quietly into our tea.
pretty interesting huh mont?
spemt Wednesday mendin the fence dreading tonight
bye scarlet
And I see British spellings, and think, "How logical."
Oh dear, bill - I hope it survives intact.
hi all
well hazel, here, we're stuck in between - sometimes, our computer dictionnaries reject nonour, humour, americanised etc..."sigh"
honour* even
Hello TO!
bonjour Temple !
Hello, Owl.
The only advantage in babble is that you sometimes get points for the two different renditions of words.
precisely hazel..
and ty for the qu 8 clue tho i cannpt remember whom to thank!
its funny mont that just this AM hubby and i were discussing the pronunciation of words bere. We have a lot of words with silent letters that we have to use to spell a word but not pronounce them in the actual word
As in today's grid, Haz.
I'll take the glory, TO.
aha! then ty haz!
yes mlfan, like plumber...
its all yours Haz :) enjoy
Yes, Scarlet, with the lengths, for one - it springs to mind.
Yes, Haz.

At least the Dexa- is not invasive, TO.

hi all
it felt plain wrong to misspell it in a babble site
HI, kattie. {{hug}}

yes but i have no pants without metal parts LOL
That looks much better, though I hope your feet aren't too cold.
how everyone doing>
FM gets blamed, not thanked!
hey carle
Dang, Owl... I guess you will have to wear a pretty cotton gown then...
how everyone doing today?
Hello carlee - doing fine thanks.
my feet are beautifully warm, i'm a size 9/10 (english) so they just sit there like warm hobbit feet
they tell you to come dressed to get you in and out quickly.
hi carlee ! - lol hazel - for all the times she's been blamed, i figured 1 thank you was justified
All right, kat.
whoever asked for the sm 5 did they get a clue?
Oh, that's good, I'd hate to think of you babbling and freezing.
sm 5 is OT word - what happened to wrongdoers
good good....:o)
Yep, TO... it is a fast test.
HI carlee
and trolls ; )
Glad you are well, kattie... did you hear anything about the interview?
i got the word myself
do I want to finish today?....I have not decided yet
But carlee, you can't set a precedent for these things. She might come to expect it and that would never do.
LOTR feet... LOL
interview?....that is tomorrow... its for a job I don't want...I want an interview with another hotel
carlee how many words have you found?
yes i do have LOTR feet. have you seen the musical?

red..is yours a baked dry one...or a creamy one?
scar, did you see emerial's contest for mac & cheese this AM?
ty mont
floppy mlfan ? - not getting you there...sorry
the winner was from charloote, she cheated and used bacon
Creamy, kat... using extra sharp cheddar and some other cheeses... YES! Owl... that's why beloved wants mac&cheese! :-)
i mean, what ISN'T good with bacon?
i love the over cooked noodle type that is SOOOO cremay..never found a good recipe where the cheese does not go stringy or greasy
i haven't read any of the books, saw the movies, and they are good, but not my thing, but the musical, i love, i am a huge muscial fan, which works as i am a sound engineer, working on the west end
especially canadian bacon TO !!
ooh carlee, that is MY trouble with it , too!
So here's where the begging letters for tickets begin...... That's interesting, shoeless!
NO bacon! But, when I make it during the week, it has bacon and sliced tomatoes on top, mixed with the Panko crumb/parm/garlic topping...
LOL monty - ok - esp CANADIAN bacon!
LOTR, Harry Potter, not my bag at all, book or movie...
my step mother does with tomatoes... and crumbs..but NO idea HOW she makes it
i need teh ME 6/21 the 3rd one and the ME 5/12 below that please

The recipes are on ABC.com, Owl.
TO - relating to the fluid surrounding a foetus, not the normal ending.
i saw ellie krieger make healthy mac& cheese using squash puree as a base to reduce milk. bought the squash, today would be a good day to try it.
I do use the Velveeta, extra sharp cheddar and gruyere in the sauce, kat...
am + cons. + greek letter ***a + common vowel
send me ur recipe sometime when u have a moment red...
You must have a great gall bladder to cope with all that cheese, Scarlet.
ty haz - from your brain to my fingers without a puase - scary!
Glad it worked TO!
I will, kattie. LOL, Haz... stomach like a goat.
i would love a recipe also
Time to go sadly - tea time! (no cheese for me!0
got the me 6/21 ty for clue with layer of wedding cake
I will do it sometime next week, then, Owl and kattie... I still owe Atalante a recipe for the halupkes.

Until another day, Haz. Be well.

wow, not sure what where I live would be then!
i cant think anymore i am out bye guys POOF
yes, i'm 20 miles from the city, but very much not the hinterlands - at least anymore. cerntainly was nowhere when we were growing up.
bye MLF!!
ciao, mlf!
sounds good to me dc, mine is overpopulated 7 million or so
my local town has about 30,000 people
OK thanks, the penny has dropped. did't think of going in that direction, jn fact, I didn;t even see that other 'o'
that would be about 10 skyscrapers full of people
My town (Littleport, Cambridgeshire) has a population of 7,521
hi movieman
hi muse
hi, all. I have new Babble Stats. I posted them earlier, but for those who missed them, they are: Babble Stats: Month of January: 5369 Total Words Month of February: 5884 Total Words Total Words for this year: 11253 Largest grid for February: 396 words, on February 18; also largest grid for the year to date smallest grid for February: 49 words, on February 11 also smallest grid for the year to date; Grids with same number of words: February 9 and 10 both had 203 words.
there's that many in our whole region, muse, of which about 4 million live here in Northern VA, but we're mostly lowish-density.
hello, movieman.
hi dc
neato, angel, ty :)
the village I live in has 1,865 LOL
Hi Angel! Thanks for the scoop.
the village my dad grew up in has 200 in it today, and i'm only related to 30 of them.
Hello, good people!
hi Vicuna!
hi, vicuna!
the village i grew up in had *thinks* 22. plus 2 dogs and 1 goat
hi vic
My husband's home town has like 50 residents, and they're practically all over 60.
I live in the country, nearest village is about 800
your geometric shape looks like a fiddlehead fern, vic :)
plus innumerable cattle, sheep, hogs, etc...
check my flickr, Vi, for an amusing pic of Haz
Yup, that's exactly what it is, you observant young man!
nice, badtrek
AAAARGH! *scratching out own eyes in agony*
that's right I'm bad, and don't you forget it LOL
*reminds self never to let Ata get hold of any pictures of me*
oops, just saw what i typed lol
Thanks for the icon clue, pabtrek. Or should I say, badtrek.
*grins* it was her own fault
What'd she do to deserve that?
looks like she's having fun, ata
She looks like a drag qu5.
When I moved to Basingstoke in 1964, the population was about 22,000 , then it becam a 'London overspill' town and in 2001 it was 152,573
that too, vic LOL
she's dressed up as Barbara Cartland
lol
Sily in a box is much easier on the eyes.
in 1971, my county had about 125,000 in it. The population here has at least doubled each deaced of my life so far.
Population around here is "lots." That's as accurate as I need to be.
woohooo firewords for me :)
yay kiwi!!!
Yay for GroovyKiwi!
congrats
its amazing how different this grid seems in the light of day and not in the dark at night lol

hasta, kiwi, ty for the cule
hi pink
Hello, pnkhat.
there's a to7/44 and a to7/?
to 7/32
found re7/32 thanks
ty
don't see either to7 or the am7
am7 - has to do with fluid surrounding fetus
I thought so, Vicuna, still looking though
(non-edj form)
*adj
got the am7 thanks Vicuna
clues for the to7's please
yay got the to7
Blast. Time to go meet descendants at school. I'll be back later, so don't have too much fun without me!
one who lives in a to4 is the to7/44
to7 - not countryside people
njoy, vic!
to 7/32 is plural of to 6/21, sounds like the basic soud units of language.
byeeeee Vi
don't have to6/21
got the to7/44 never saw it with double vowels at the end though, that threw me off
Did babble have a malfunction about an hour ago? I couldn not get back on, and had to log in anew just now.
my too peri, took me a while to find it; finally tried the double vowels out o frustration.
51 left bbl to finish
i need the to6,21, too, please
to6/21 is like the fo****s of a language, the basic sounds.
to 6?21 is TO + **gative + not you, but ** (dative or accusative)
thanks inge:)

the brits appear to be back in town, hi there
hi monkey

Yay!

HAz I do worry about you sometimes

Let loose those toes
me6/21 - French career, me plus a layer of wedding cake
sandi, you have the tube, we have the me***
*wiggles toes*
Did Barbara Cartland ever write for Mills and Boon, I wonder?
I doubt it
she must have done in her 3765965 books?
but she did have to start somewhere ...google calls
I don't think she did
ei
Take a stiff drink first. There may be photos.
Ok - those 3 glasses of wine are really fuzzing my brain - I just don't get the me clues!!!!
Didyou know that Barbara is not her first name?
Sorry
hey where's my cheeky lilliann ???

trying to find my last 60 and waiting for hubby to cook dinner.....i'll have to crack the whip to make him cook it quicker!!
*sorry - that they accept a bit of cockney slang here
unless i'm mistaken in its meaning
se5/10 - there are two, each ending in a different vowel. After the se4/4 (dispatched)
657? thats scary
All happy endings?
how's your cheeky little bum ???
wow, i was wrong, it means ox or cattle as well
lil do you have any idea how strange that sounds?
who me?
HAZ, thank you for saving my last living brain cell, fireworks at last, slides out of chair to floow
mine's fine monkey, how's yours?
almost as strange as scarlet giving colon cleansing to dc earlier
sorry about this but can anyone clue me the me5/12 after the first unit of measurement plz? I have all the others but cannot get that one.

We'll just stay home and keep the home fires burning.

please feel free to add your own punctuation !!
I never made it futher south than Pretoria, always meant to go back and visit Capetown
Hello. I finished earlier. I'm just here to ask FM if she's joining in the Cartlandisation plan. If so, FM, take your specs off for the pic. I left mine off so they wouldn't get in Ata's way. :-)
I didn't get a lot of sleep on the return journey ( well, thats my excuse ! )
And to think they claim to be friends.
Wot do you mean JAcs, That pic is me After Atas treatment lol
LOL, FM!
Is there soe pictures somewhere for me to see ?
Is it a direct flight back or doyou have to stop at Joburg?
Haz - we are your friends, that's why we're joining in.:D
Karys, have a look at Atalante's profile and the pic in top left corner. It's me with the Barbara Cartland light make-up touch.
Karys - There may be more of us getting 'Cartlandised'.
notice the subtlty shaded cheekbones and the numance of mascara.
Oh dear, I've got the giggles again now.
Frankfurt Mitch....going to look now
I'd like a Warhol version
barbra cartland? should i wiki her?
Hello!
I think I did the Warhol version, FM.
Google her, and take a few steps away from the screen.
Hello Vicuna!
Spoils the fun if you warn them in advance, Haz!
lol...like it !!!
I'm just too softhearted, Jacula.
Ata failed to warn me earlier, and I ended up scratching out my own eyes in horror.
...wow...
LOL, Vicuna. I assume you;re touch typing now.
...nice....
LOL Hi Vi
awfully pink
hey jac's vic...fm...{{hugs}}
Did you see my version of Hazel Cartland, FM?
and {{haz}}
Hi, Carlee.
Well, luckily the soothing glow of the golden tiles seems to have miraculously restored my vision.
She always wore pink - and she had peke dogs. She didn't dye them pink, thankfully but it was a close run thing.
you must be a youngster shoe ifyou haven't come across her before. Hey carleeeeee
Hello carlee!
Hello, carleekat!
come across who?
hello carlee
How is is that hideous hags seem to love pink? Jordan will be old one day! LOL
i am a lowly 20 year old
Gardners World is on (1st of new series) and that means Spring is not too far away!!!
where's your version, Jac???!!
hey carlee
Barbara Cartland. Prolific authoress, step grandmother of Princess Diana, known for her light make-up touch.
Oh boy will she have some droopy bits eh Jacs?
Drat! I forgot to watch it. I'll have to catch it online later, FM.
i am soon to be 21, and i am presuming nothing at all will change
yes..light... I can see that...
Ata - it's not as good as yours but it is quite Warholy.
Nothing will change, shoeless.
nope
wanna see!
and..how did we get on the topic of barbara cartland?
I'll put it up as my icon, Ata. Hang on.
Oh, carlee, it was a while ago, we were talking about Peter Stringfellow and somehow Barbara came up.
...and there she is in all her glory... Ms. Hazel Cartland.
and if that is what Ata does to friends, god help her enemies!
wonderful!!!!
Its even worse than I remember
hahaha....oh my jacs...that is wicked of u
but there's one thing wrong Jac. the lipliner stays within the actual lip area :P
And the moral of the story is - if Atalante or Jacula ever ask for a photo of you DON'T DO IT!
I know, Ata. I did take it up a bit but I though afterwards that it was too neat.:-)
Haz - you knew exactly what we were going to do.:D
*giggle*
*gasps for breath*
*crawls painfully toward the door*
I know. Anything (well, almost) for a laugh.
We're all planning on getting makeovers for a theme ay.:D
*oh, the horror!*
Are you all right down there, Vic? Need a paper bag to breathe into?
In the US we'd probably have to do Tammy Faye Bakker day instead.
well fm has my pic...
head between ur knees vic....
should I be worried?
Qu4 posting, Jacs! You're just making it worse!
Oh yes I do, don't I .... LOL
Do you wish the "treatment"?
FM could probably open a virtual beauty salon with the makeovers as examples of what can be achieved.
if we having a theme day..knok urself out
"beauty" solon, eh?
knock * rather
its all a good laugh
OK Hey Ata carlee is game.
salon. whatever. you can tell I don't frequent them much.
there. double haz now *grin*
Haz, what a hoot of an idea
Tammy Faye doesn't look QU5 as bad as BC.
Let your creative juices flow, FM.
if u go to the babble group in facebook...u can "makeover" tonnes of us
anyone who wants a BC makeover, send me a photo :P
Ata you are on facebook aren't you ...
( didn't... she died about a month ago jac's )
yesm i am
Oh, carlee. How old was she?
Anyone coming into chat now will think we're all bonkers.
tammy faye?... late 60's early 70's cancer...
she was in alot of [ain
oh hell an other gunman on a campus in US
pain*
You say that like it's an unusual occurrance, Jacs.
NOthing new there, Jacula.
How does it feel to be plastered (literally) all over the chatlog, Haz?
Ah well, I've not taken the bold step of refreshing yet. I suppose I'd better?
Haz is plastered again? It may be time for an intervention.
Gosh it has been ages since Haz took a nip of the cooking sherry Jacs
refresh! refresh!
oh my....I just DID refresh
I've refreshed. Where's the bucket?
<giggle>
it could be worse. it could be stringfellow in his leopard print thong
ewww ewww ewww
ata wins...hands down...lol
oh god..NO!!!!!!!!..not the leopard print thong
So, hands up who wants Stringfellow in the leopard print thong?
Hello rolin
hey mitch... been lurking a bit
NONONONONONONONONONO
i dunno ... jac's is wonderfully warholesque
hi rolin
I mean, I know you wouldn't LITERALLY want him, just a picture of him.
oh go for it haz. lets scare more ppl
No please no, Much prefer our dear Haz in whatever guise
Hello Rolin. I was just going through the Facebook group and thinking your photo would be a good one to do.
jac....
I love to go a-googling, all through the internet.
i..
dont...
think...
so...
lol
Spoilsport!
( blair highschool in pascedena calif...a gun man on the loose apparently)
i dont think i heard rolin's objections
just looking on CNN carlee
I love to go a-googling and get my friends upset.:)
Went deaf there for a moment, Ata? Jolly good!
she's laughing too hard ata...laughter +'s a positive...she must be agreeing to the treatment
lol...i feel under attack... the ony solution is to put my laptop aside...and do some serious cuddling...
laughter ='s rather
nite all..
hello all... *hides behind door* is it safe to enter the grid/chat/internet now?
no, definitely not
Not if you've got your photo up, Stid.
jac's and ata doing barbara cartland makeovers on us..I am curious to see how I turn out
I've always been told pink is my colour
'Night rolin. x
I guess I don't know barbara cartland... perhaps a good thing!
sweet dreams rolin
So, we're doing this in stages. First we had Peter Stringfellow. Now here he is in leopard print. You know what'll appear eventually...
( imagine an older tammy faye baker )
nite rolin
look at mine and jac's pics lol
ew. ick.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, Haz.
i'm sorry haz, but i just never saw stringfellow that way, he makes me shudder
Er, shoeless - that's the point.
sorry
Poor Peter. He tries so hard.
they say anticipation is always worse. i dont think it is in this case
only just came into the conversation
thats me embarrassing myself again then
You have to know that we are babblers with impeccable taste.
I've got to go now. BBL to see what Ata's done to me.
Bye Jacula!
which is why we never mention jordan
Ever.
bye jacs
What could be worse the Stringfellow?
Nor Peter Andre.
later Jacula
Forbidden territory.
No Katie Price here.
that certainly is just as bad, FM!
give me james mcavoy any day
or ewan mcgregor
gross
i think its pretty much scotsmen actually

I see a certain Caledonian bias there, shoeless. You like actors with mc in their name?
as they are both lovely, and distinctly ungross
Good afternoon all. Babbling while waiting on a phone call.
its teh accent
i rather like scotsmen..my first "love" was a scotsman...oof..still I hear that accent...and am butter
oh and don't forget the kilt!

grrr. *staying out of "man" discssion*
Fmitch - I don't think you could ever summarize the discussion<G> Very entertaining though
hi carlee...how's Mr Carlee doing ?
** off in a dream full of kilt wearing scotsmen...***
who kary's?....who???
i am so with you carlee
I'm not sure it is really so much a "man discussion" as a "man reverie"
Mr. Carlee's in a dream of kilt wearing scotsman?
i must go up to edinburgh again,
Hi musicmom :)
I revere men:-)
Hi Fmitch
So does anyone have those re words?

What????? you mean you are blathering on and you don't have all the words yet? <wink>
I just past halfway, not to the list yet musicmom, but I have some RE words
HI Karys
somehow he does look better laughing Haz. Oh OK carlee I will leave him there for you
this is a 6/7 combo that happens between the biblical juniper tree and a bundle of nerves or arteries
I can't remember laughing so hard as I did watching that movie...
I only have three words left and those are two of them
That was a great movie
can't stand borat
don't know why
biblical juniper tree? all I know about juniper is that it turns into gin
Well, if you think he looks good laughing, just wait till you see him smiling from cheek to cheek....
even his appearance in sweeney todd was weird
oh.... I went in knowing he was going to be insulting and I just ran with it..I cannot believe he stayed in character so completely all the time
biblical juniper? are we looking at the same grid, musicmom? LOL
he's done so well for himself though. he knows his audience
oh! I can get the list now... brb
Cedars of Lebanon?
this is what dictionary.com says for that word:
OOps here it a shrub, , of Syria and Arabia, having white flowers: said to be the juniper of the Old Testament.
how many letters?
mom the first 7 re's all build off the 4/4
hello hootowl!
Any clues for to5/18 and to6/30 please
I need the 6/18,7/28 between that and the nerve bundle - re words
hi stid!
re5 - ends with ---per tantrum

Norma - if you need to have your car dragged somewhere you are the to5/18 and the 6 is plural
Wasn't going to start talking but couldn't resist. Had no trouble with the re's for a change. Last 3 are babblets
to5/18 - to rhyme with the Ziggy Stardust singer
re6 - to rearrange a 13-19 year old again
to5,18 to + length, depth and **dth + vowel, thn plural
Ziggy Stardust? *lack of attention to popular music is a handicap*

Thanks so much - got those now.

TY, Bubba--I was trying amnesties and varieties.

re + number after nine + vowel, then plural
I just cannot get the to5/18 - after the trip around a country - can anyone clue me plz?

need the se 5/10---already have the one that ends in personal pronoun...
to + HRH ***en Elizabeth, then pl
sorry, then add a consonant
mraehoover, end with 2nd vowel instead of personal promoun
both se5,10 are the same, they just end in a differnet vowel
That is the to5/16 -which is the one I have bubba - it's the one after the trip and before the other word for a city.
sorry I should have asked for the 5/18 - just realized I mis-typed the request. Fuzzy fingers.
oh sandie that one rhymes with the first name of TV show host HO*** Mandel
to5,18 when your car get stuck you call a to* truck + two vowels, 3rd and second
you're a gem, bubba...only two to go...em 4, 5 (got the ruler) and qu 6---already have the one that tells what another has said

em + the opp of no is y**
Oh Bubba - thanks so much - I was going in totally the wrong direction and now that gives me fireworks. I am so grateful.
qu + 4th vowel + cousin ** from the Adamms family

Who are you babbling with, mrae?
when I visit my younger brother, we often babble together for practise. I find it fun to do with others.
Uni...babble w/my husband...
My 85 year old mom likes it, too....got onto it 2 yrs ago, playing w/ my youngest son
My husband spends more time than me, most days
That's excellent..I started this by giving itto my mother, and we all helped her but now she does it solo. Gets cranky when we try to *help*, lol

Way to go Peri!
Speaking of my husband, he's getting ready to go out for dinner...better clean up! Night to all! My mom is the same, Uni...she's a gem and does well on her own, but never finishes...too tiring...Enjoy!

we have 65-75 MPH winds here....
We were on Leacrest Road in a tiny house -- 1948-54, before Toronto was a city, lol
Oh i hate wind it can be very scary
Hi Jilli.....you've certainly lived in many places!
Vlieland just checked in with 62mph, so must be related
Wow I work at laird & eglington
yep, just! Don't plan to move from here though
well from the pix you showed a coupla days ago....I don't blame you!
Any help with the se 5,10's
its darn gusty out there.....
hello, could someone clue the last me5/6 combo?
Back then there were no high-rises in TO, and 401 didn't exist.
just lurking while watching a movie...evening everyone
lol how times and things have changed, eh?
just like the se4 above, but end with a different vowel for each
aussieme - first earthquakes, now wind gusts...what's going on over there :)
i like your clue jill
I dont know Angela, but it is sure scary, its costing me a fortune.....
it's probably not a combo - me5 is the plural of the me4/5 and the me6 is more meat, but spelled differently
the last me 5 and 6 are not a combo -- the 5 is the present tense of me4/5, the 6 is me + level of seats
I can imagine! We have been getting a ton of snow but I would much rather that that what you have been getting!
got em thanks
ty harp!
middle qu5/16??

StephieC, I only saw one that was clued at 7:40 ! I'll be sure not to ask again Thank YOu!

Hey dan, just in time to say good night! see everyone tomorrow
I'm good Dan - pretty tired but just HAD to come check out the grid tonight!
Hi dawg! see you tomorrow!

too tired to even load lickety's tonight, so may just get a few more, then head into a deep slumber
3m's...me4/5 the first is me + ** the world turns
me4/6 is me + 2 more vowels
and me6/21 the second is me + cross + more so ending
got the second one, the first doesn't seem to want to work for me! lol thick heading i guess
ma ** the world turns
lol no not that either
2nd mi4/5 is russian space station plural
hey nanna
hi
mo5/12 is mo + veitnamese new year
hi banana!
hi dan
need to fix the ** the world turns clue....lol
lol, got it - thanks - just switched the vowels
tyne...** the world turns is a soap opera here in the US...it could also be clued AS, ummm...I think I just typed it
Just1Mar...did any of those help?
thanks dan - we get the same soap here in the Great White North! lol
where are you Tyne?
dan - ban is saying clue is for an ma, not an me, so that doesn't apply except as an anagram
lol sigh need 3 me's me 4,6 me 5/12 and me 6/21
I don't know what they show where up there...I just wish we got your hockey coverage down here!
lol ty nDan....didn't want to push it....sorry dan, I wasn't making myself very clear
Winnipeg, Manitoba up in Canada
oh, I'm in Alberta
ahhh Winterpeg!
ah, the Have province!
and i wasn't paying attention to my own clues...sorry banana!
lol tyne
lol I'm in a havenot too
(and thanks nDan for the 2x4...sometimes I need it right between the eyes to see!)
think we all do at times (like tonight) dan
yes, we have three seasons here in Winterpeg - Winter (of course! lol), Mosquito season, and construction!
more than we have tyne! we got 2....winter and July
me 4 6 alt spelling cat's cry
have/havenot?
ok, somewhere in Mosquito and Construction season we also get beautiful summer - which is wonderful considering we have some of the best beaches
we have oil, jobs, no debt, no sales tax
sounds good to me! where does one apply for that?
me 5 12 - 4 of them; 2 x measure [am/brit]; built up area prefix [or D.C. subway]; or measures out
provincial govt, sent out cheques to all Albertans year before last for $400....we are the Have province
I was in Winnipeg a few years ago tyne, thought it was a really nice city! of course it was late May tho..lotta creepy catterpillars
me 6 21 2 of them; one is spacey; one is Fr for perfect occupation; sounds like the type of bone dogs prefer
ewwww, they're almost as bad as the fish flies! although the catterpillars aren't a regular occurance, but we did have a bad infestation one year - all our trees were bare
thx nDan.......gonna try to figger 'em out.....did get the s's and thanx for that
oops! work calls...brb
they were everywhere tyne.....
think it was about 4 or 5 years ago
got the french occupuation right away (like duhh who better than me shoulda gotten that) :)
sigh...never saw the plural for last 5,12 (blushes in embarrasment) I must have SAD (seasonal affective dumbness)
fireworks.....thx NDan....couldn't have done it without your help!
can i get a clue for the 2nd ro4/4 please
is that the 'indian' bread?
idk
ro + do re mi ...la **
huh?
yes, the second ro4/4 is the indian bread
idk what indian bread is
ro + the english drink (boiling water with a small bag of leaves)
only, different spelling
ohhhh ty
banana - do you have the ro5 and 6?
yes, similar to the to 5 and 6
use the high point letter
hmmm - not that I have those either....
similar to the cr game played with mallet, balls and wire brackets
we Canadians wear these to**** in winter on our heads
if cro, th (now) cro7 w/b game with mallets & balls on lawn [Qn of Hearts]
It's that combo letter that messes me up on the counts
