There you go! :) Hahaha
What part of the planet are you from?
who were you on TW Geoff?
MI, USA
No one special Just, I honestly can't remember if it was Masamog, or Aemnesia, I think it was Masamog though... I played like, 3 or 4 years ago
Ah the cold place!
en7
Can anyone help me figure this "tile stat" stuff out...I'm not new to Babble, but I've just "paid" to play and I don't really see the advantage yet...
Yes! We just had 8 inches, and we're getting 8 more soon
234. Finishing tomorrow. Luck to all.
Angelsong's page is a big help, but basically the stats are 4 letters is point value, 5 is x2 point value, 6 letters is x 3 point value, etc.
Take care :)
For instance, how do you all know what en7 means?
well paying is a one shot deal kimmy.....more like a contribution
Also, you retain tile and word stats, get to play the theme game, get Lickety Expert, etc.
How do you all know that there is an "en7"?
en7 means the word starts with en and is 7 letters long
Kimmy -- the top left tile shows 0/13 to start with, meaning you haven't got any of the 13 words starting with the top left T -- and so on
I'm surprised the word leanto doesn't work, I think it's lean-to, though
ty jilli
tried that also, keep hoping enable updates
Kimmy -- you need to get Lickety's list which gives the first two letters of each word and its score
also, Kimmy see my explanation re tile points
Kimmy, I think you've been away for a while -- yes?
Thanks Jilli and Mymuse!
I play almost everyday but only for about a half an hour to an hour
For other interesting things, check out Angelsong's babble page under friends of babble
And, Kim -- in your My Account, did you chack the "Show Profile" box in the upper right corner? That will give you your flag etc.
anyone say la7?
brb
Nope, I sure enough did not check the appropriate box, so thanks again Jilli!

Hi Lynxxx ! marmar, i live in Düsseldorf :-)
Sun morn at 2am we change to 3am
Thanks DC.
oops, day after, ur right, Just. that's what 9h sleep in 2 days does to my brain :)
Oh Hi all. =)
so your clocks go forward so that means an hour earlier? lol
nah you just want it already! like me!
yes we lose an hour
the hour changes tomorrow?
hrmmmmm getting a bit grumpy here - was supposed to have two german guests arrive three hours ago to stay the weekend but they havent arrived yet grrr
Farr, it's nice to see another Schwartz/Rot/Gold in the chatterbox! I've never been to Düsseldorf...
no early sun morn
i do! we spend 2/3 of the year on it, i hate the change, and would rather gmt-4 year round.
Spring Forward with the clocks
grumble - Aust doesn't change for another month
do you have that Jilli out there?
:) Mar is a nice city , very fortunate to live here
we change back an hour in a couple of weeks i think
Loves living in Arizona. =P
they have moved day light savings here starts two weeks earlier and finishes two weeks later now
what do you mean, Just1?
time change
Arizona is the maverick isn't it Worquey? They don't change do they?
all canada except SK has DST
re 7 x 2
Yup no time change
nor does HI nor PR nor VI
see, dc knows about Canada -- yay for dc!
yeahhh a man of the world!
Wow, I didn't know that. Bravo to them for bucking the norm.
Not being a morning person, I love DST and the long evenings -- hate the early dark of ST
think it used to be the first sun in april....this is much better
me, too, jilli.
I used to know the Canadian national anthem Jilli...do I get a gold star?!
me 3 I mean how can I get up when it's already 3:10am
when i was young, it was last Sun in Apr, then 1st in Apr, now 1st in March. It ended end of Sep, then early Oct, now 1st Sun Nov.
you do, mar -- many Canadians don't!
We sing both anthems at hockey games a lot. So we sometimes sing in 3 languages.
what's the 3rd, dc?
I know it in French too...from brainwashing my kid when he was in the choir !
I used to know the French national anthem too....and strangely, I've forgotten most of both of them...Guess I don't get enough practice!
spanish, jilli, rarely, for part of US anthem.
oh, of course -- the french version is the original -- the Englsih is a very bad franslation
the French is much nicer, i agree, jilli
hmm -- Franslation...
oh you;re a hockey fan dc? which team?
Washington Capitols :)
I am still missing one 8... I have an 8, ca 8, na 8, po 8 x 2... anyone know what I am missing?
Allon, enfants de la patrie...
Capitals rather :">
5 8s ??? I'm *****
I hope you're an exExpos fan too, dc
that was Allons ... getting really tired...
... Le jour de gloire est arrivé ...
After the World Cup (soccer championship) was in Germany a few years ago, my Eva learned the German anthem in school and they sang it at the summerfest...you should have seen it, the kids were so proud and happy and the parents and grandparents were totally at a loss. It was a strange experience.
I was jilli but since baseball screwed the expos I no longer watch any of it
Can't remember what the exExpos are called now in DC, dc
nationals I think
LOL Marmar :)
I've been to a number of Expos games since they came here.
yes, the Nats, Nathionals, named for the old Colored League team here.
Just1 -- late hub and I were avid Expo fans -- went to Spring Training, listed to the radio and scored games -- then greedy Brochu entered the scene and ruined it all
100 words now must peel my prawns, happy babbling everyone
well I blame bronfman for selling it to him
ciao, andree :)
Hi & bye Andree
oh that's great, dc! I hope they will honour the name some day
Does anyone have any clues for any "et" words... how appropriate that I should have to ask...

i have much studying to do, and a friend from Morocco has volunteered to help me. I'm going to take her up on it.
Thanks so much for the clue Mar!

morning, ursh
but then again thats probably my accent talking lol
I have to say, that I have to use my dictionary quite often when finding certain words in the puzzle. The funny thing is, is that I never know which ones will actually be legit and which ones will be a bust. Oh well.
LOL kiwi
kimmy -- try morewords -- it lists the one which are acceptable here
ones
thanks again Jilli
i keep want atlatl, but it's a phantom
It still aggravates me either way

no, just, it's a separate site
BabbleExpert is windows only or online ?
i use it a lot, i should donate to them.
windows only, farruska
it's alist of acceptable words, just -- do you have Expert or did you tell me you have a mac and can't get it?
meh :(
less you want to port it ;)
I'm on a mac jill. I have a win laptop but I hate that thing
yes and no jilli lol
farr -- Lickety made BabbleExpert and you can get it only from him -- free
only open it for testing web applications on the damn IE
it was westford who has the mac
for some reason i have Grand Union on my mind tonight - a grocery chain that shut down here in 1983.
no mar, I have the mac too ^_^
i hate exploder, except for Expert, i don't use it at home.
at work, exploder is the only option, though.
na8 - french ruler
Are you at work DC?
dc yup and yet , clients continue to demand that apps work in the damn thing too
well, you can get morewords as dc said -- www.morewords.com, set it up in a separate window and minimise it sideways so you can access it easily without covering up the grid
great, I'll do that jill
indeed, farruska, as many are very computer illiterate, and it comes with the OS.
thx jilli i do that with lickety's also
oh, did Grand Union shut down? What about A&P?
co 7 x 4
A&P is still around, but the A&P banner is only in NY/New England now. Here, they trade as Super Fresh.
this client in particular is not, even knows how to use linux , but the admninistration is ...
Thank you Kiwi! or should I say Merci!
The Grand Union Company fully liquidated in 2001. But their name lives on in a chain in Western Massachussetts.
ah, i c, farru
marmar are germans usually reliable people? no offense lol
:D
kiwi can I answer that too?
I find them so Kiwi. What do you say Farr?
of course lol
i'm fried, must sleep. ¡hasta!
well i was due to have a german couple (tourists) arrive 3 1/2 hours ago to stay the weekend and they havent turned up yet lol
nite dc sweetest dreams
Sleep sound DC!
bye DC
and its coming up to 10pm and i havent heard from them lol
well, I've been here for the past 3,5 years and we've been stabbed in the back by every other portuguese who moved here with us. The german acquaintances are the only ones we can trust
night dc
I'm fried too -- bedtime -- night all and ty for the help!
nite jilli sweet dreams
kiwi I wouldn't worry, they'll turn up :-) if they said they'd be there, they will
OH! Because of that Kiwi. Well, that certainly depends on several factors I guess. How are they arriving (train? plane? foot?)

is everyone sleeping?
back from therapy, hi all
hi sprite welcome back!!
hi Dee :)
it has been so quiet; thot my chat was not working; how did therapy go?
tough, but ok. Am dead tired now, but managed to do the shopping before returning to home. So I can relax now for a bit.
good... you may need a nap...
mmm good idea. A little afternoon nap today, might just do that, Dee, thanks :)
yw sprite; I hope all is truly well with you!
one day, perhaps. Though I am learning to settle for less than truly well ;)
have you been struggling again?
still, hun. It is a very slow battle uphill... will take several more years before we can say if it really was worth it.
I really think it will be worth the struggle.... not sure why but I really believe you will be successful in this long trek
love to hear you saying that! Thanks, Dee *hug*
yqw... sorry if this sound corny, but I think God rewards perseverance; you are persevering, even through the toughest paths
well, if I have ONE thing going for me, it is that I just never give up. It is my downfall, but also a ta6, I hope. It is what makes the difference. Even my therapist marvels at it. So I hope you are right, Dee... may God reward my not giving up ;)
amen to that!~
Hi HUGSSSSSSs
and the babble support helps a lot. Like you do now... just letting me know you have faith, that helps a lot. Hi lady!
We just signed our lease
yayyyyyy lady! Congrats. May your new place bring you peace, good company and lots and lots of love, luck and happiness.
I totally agree. The folks here are truly a blessing!
http://tinyurl.com/23622o FOr those that need hugs
Sprite it has already got a Jewish blessing on the place :D But seriously thank you
Oh and the land lords daughter is the same name as me
awwwwww so sweet, thanks lady :)
that should give you some credit right away, lol
Yes indeed. Oh and the door thing its a Mezuza(h) its a protection thing.
protection and blessings are good things. I am glad you have them.
Well no wonder the house felt right
morngin all..how very considerate...babble has 329 words to find...and i have the day off!!
nice rolin! Enjoy :)
Hi Rolin and nice for a day off

I am happy to find that the new place is a home
I have 2 pigtails today, native american style, for the first time in my life. So far, only positive reactions :)
cute sprite
good, rolin! Be firm with yourself if you see you are not taking time off ;)
I like the ca4, lady.
Sprite i own 2 one is black soft material and the purple is canvas and warm. I did have a chance to buy one similar to the icon and i couldn't reason with my self $800
I love them, but I agree... that is a load of money.
My coat would have cost that if i hadn't got it for free
gonna grab myself some breakfast now, brb with it.
Ok Spriet
Sprite even
wow I just saw something odd... I was at more words looking through st 5 words... and there is one missing from the morewords list.... st 5/10 (def a small, expandable tube used for inserting in a blocked vessel)
oh intersting thanks volley
i tell ya what technology has gone mad over here today
why is that?
ehhehe, spriet is dutch for a single grass stem, or a very slim girl. I am neither, but thanks ;)
well my partner is a techie who works from home...he was on skype chatting to a workmate...the the house phone rang for him...then his mobile..lol
that was odd lady; I don't think I have ever found a missing word before
That you found a common word that is missing. Maybe morewords is having a holiday
I use
hi everyone
this one is a known one, Dee. I remember it from the times I used to make stats by hand.
hi Ishult.
http://www.amo.qc.ca/cgi-bin/pub/ODico /dico.out instead of more words
finally made it to the half way mark, but found nothing bigger than a 7!!!
HI Ishult
Ishult can you help me please.
good to know sprite... hope I remember that in the future
ca8/50 plural to the 7/36 is my only biggie
if I can!!
lol Dee... I always look for it when I see the canvas dwelling.
How does one pronounce Mezuza(h) as we have one on our new house door that we are renting from a nice Jewish family.
po8/55 - with strength and force
it's pronounced exactly as you spelt it Ma-zuz-a
Thanks Haz
as it is written herin the 'u' is a short oo
oh, I think that gave me a 9 too! Thanks Haz, and hi :)
Thanks i didn't want to say it wrong if someone asked
ty heron... guess what... word is missing there, too... I think it may be considered a proper noun by dictionaries...
Maybe its spelled different st???
oh... no, I found a 9 and 10 from that clue, Haz. *goes back to look for the 8 now*
previously I had seen it with an i
It's an adverb (po8)
oooh i found the 9 & 10 too...woohoo
ty haz...and hi too
yup, got it now, thanks again Haz. I found the verb(s)
All good!
or perhaps the nouns... dictators?
thanks i tried that for the 10 and it didn't work. mmmm silly board
po9 - one who possesses great power and plural for po10
The P words are making me go cross eyed
omg there are 58 p's...
like this: p.q ?
fireworks
woweeeeee Deeeee! Well done!
Yah flossey

Night Volley
big grid today. whyyyyy!
*hugs Dee* Thanks, and sleep well!
BFS its our Saturday tomorrow
bfsog: blame rolin. She has a day off.
herin, here is some other info on your mezuzah... often a prayer was said as they walked through the door, touching the parchment: a parchment scroll inscribed on one side with the Biblical passages Deut. 6:4–9 and 11:13–21 and on the other side with the word Shaddai (a name applied to God), inserted in a small case or tube so that Shaddai is visible through an aperture in front, and attached by some Jews to the doorpost of the home.
lol..gee thx sprite...
Thank you Volley.
it was done according to Jewish law as a sign of faith
our saturday?

what is Canberra?
Lynxxx, I have been appallingly good and my iron levels have DOUBLED in two weeks, which is great. They are teetering on the bottom end of the range!
a city in Aussie Nance lol
haha
capital of Australia
Canberra is to Australia as Washington is the the USA
Canberra is the capital of Australia, nance. In much the same way you have DC, we have the Australian Capital Territory, which is a territory, not a state.
i did not know that
And my home!
po8/55 sounds like a manmade material without the H
Thats great Jandy, so back to work soon?

morning asgeen
i did think it was Sydney
Hope not too soon, lynxxx, cause that's where I went wrong last time. Got low iron with the DVT last year and apparently it never got better...
Peri yes both to8/55
......sorry po8/55
But my work are great and I have heaps of sick leave, so another couple of weeks rest should see me ready for surgery. There's something wrong with that!
Everyone does, nance!

Ok I am all packed, and showered, just have to extract some things from my car and call B and make sure he is awake.
peri po8/55 sounds like a manmade material without the H

opps, sorry and good morning.
no more chatting 4 me
well i did not know

do not make me go to the pentlety box i am young
thank you though phandmd
have a great day babbling everyone - looks long and fun! See ya in the next day or so
it means if you say a word that is in the grid, in the chat log; you will be sent to the penalty box as punishment
Jc - we do not tell you any words and you should not type any words you find into the chat - pput those in the "Add Word" box.
LOL Jc

even if I can t spell.
lol red
You've got more time to spare than us, jc!!!
don't start spelling like me today
Hi Phand
quick question...as for rankings - which I never really looked at before - if you start and don't finish, it's worse for your rankings than if you don't do anything at all, right?
They look like peanut cookies, red LOL!
am am sorry now i am going to cry because i made you guys mad
hello phan, red and anyone else i missed!!
AsGreen - only for the rankings on the left
I think so Asgreen, because i have this problem all the time and my rankings go down...
that is right asgreen for the left hand column!
Oh no, jc, you'd have to take my drink off me to make me mad.....
Hi Pink hat, theres a word for little pink here in the grid.... a po word.
so, I'm using all my willpower not to start - since I KNOW I won't finish. OK, then, I better go

Hooray for Lil Pink !!!!
yay pink!!
Yay lil pink, and thus it is her word!!!
Hands over somecookies and endurance gel...its all I have.

damn! i didn't see it in the grid **skips off to the PB**
bye AsGreen - have fun
phantom: fefnicute

Jc - how old are you?

Grin, I know!
maybe i should have a bottle of xanax beside my computer - LOL
LOL
Probably not a brilliant strategy for success, though, nance! Lots of words starting with zzzzzzzzz

We'll have to make sure it happens more often then, nance!

I took careful no5/10 along the way so that no4/4 of the seemingly po6/21 words escaped me.

OR you leave outplurals because you can make them two ways
i don't have a ca 6/12

could i have a different clue 4 the ca6/21 please
county seat is henderson.
u live near the virginia board if i'm not mistaken

lol @ "what type of sick people are you?"
i'll trade my victorian for a brick house with little maintence LOL
and there 's always something that could be "restored" i.e. broken
ty
they are beautiful
ac 7 church helper, end sounds not heavy
i lived in hendrsonville for three years - it's in the north carolina mountains about 30 miles from asheville
but i actually do like the house!
Yeah, but if you killed you'd need to use the closet for hiding the skeleton, and then you'd be no better off than before.
i like my victorian( the last owner refurbished it) except for the wet basement:)
lol frantique
NICe one vicuna *cracks up*
ac 7 please?
harp, you are right about no closet space.
Here in NY so many were torn down in the 70's people thought they were ugly and big white elephants. Now we have to work at keeping them so they don't be come extinct
lol vic
sorry i thought i heard someone say they lived in henderson, which i thought was a town along the rd from richmond to raleaigh.
but, i would kill for a kitchen.
wet basement oh you have an "indoor pool" how nice !
temple, it is.
or a jumbo-sized turtle habitat!
LOL
hee hee. sometimes:)
buzzzzzzzz lives in henderson
could someone clue the ly words?
my dad's friend retired there for years. he is gone now.
anyone enter recently that lives in or near atlanta?
p2h see 7 before your request
speaking of turtle habitats, i need to change the water in mine *sigh* so much work. But it's worth it. He's fabulous.
awww
oh, i didn't see you there p2h *waves* :-D
hi april
en7 please?
I saw a huge turtle at pet store the other day, he walked over to an extension cord and pulled it out ! I had worried that the cord was in his reach.
hey praise
was he a turtle or a tortoise, frantique?
what was the cord attached to?
ly 5: Ly + double cons + vowel, the next one is the latin plural
I donno. .he was about 3 feet in diameter!!!
i pet sat for some tortoises once. wow what a crazy job:)
hi nance
was he just walking around the store?
sounds like it - do you have to walk them? ll
lol 2
en 7: French words for agrement or understanding
it was a light plugged into a socket
good morning praise
He was in a large glass room
definitely a tortoise
hi flosey
turtles need h2o to swim in :-D
i thought maybe he was tired of the type of music that may have been playing
he was big enough to put a leash on! LOL
thanks inge - and good morning to you, will have to work on that one
they had him in a glass room with a sloth.
guess I"ll go get an icon clue
hi
Flosey: en + canvas dwelling + vowel
how many words today?
ly mid - ac7, an7, po8 end - ap7, co6, po4, st7 start- ly5 [ not heavy, italian style] ly6 [5 w/ gk pl ending]
329
329
didn't have to walk the tortoises but one flipped over once.
giving sudoku a try now
got it, thanks inge
debjed, were they friendly?
I got bit by a box turtle when i was a kid and I got hepititis
yes, i got some great pics. they lived in the back yard
it hurt cause he wouldn't let go
frantique that must have been frightening
we had him for years! he would hibernate each year. amazing and some times people would find him walking on the expressway and return him
yeah-- they don't let go. I hand feed my turtle and he is really good about not biting me. But sometimes he does accidentally (like if the food floats away) and you just have to stay still until he lets go, which can be hard. but if you try to shake him off, he'll bite harder-- it's instinct
we wrote our phone number on his shell with that water proof yellow goo that they had in the 1960's
Yeah LOL i shoook!
here's my icon clue, la5
you were acting like live prey, frantique!
i think i'm more affraid of when my birds bite me
and it looks delicious jane
ah i should act like dead prey LOL
definitely ;)
my birds bite like turtles they clamp down
know what's funny? feed a baby turtle vegetables. they're carnivores til they get older, and they'll try it and make a face and spit it out. . . hillarious
lol
hello everyone, i'm back
it'd be mean to do all of the time, but once in a while it's funny. Plus the first time i did it I didn't know he wouldn't like it
hello ardilla
TY jane, can't believe i missed it! :)
HEY u not being mean.. Veggies are good for them LOL MAKE them eat em !
welcome back ardila
i never did get that pa9, could anyone try to help again? sorry
in case anyone here sudokus w/ Ruud, it appears he is okay
i never new they were carnivors
pa4 + not with others
thank you:)
My dad wanted a few of those little green turtles but they are illegal here in NY
thanks Dan, didn't have that one either
yeah, you have to have a special license in NY
I have a painted. He's gorgeous
in manhattan in china town they sell them on street corners. They flash their coat open and inside they have a little jar of them LOL
I heard that some raise them to make soup!
i have a yellow eared slider
she is sleeping right now
are yellow eared sliders little?
here in NY they ave to be atleast 4 " big to be legal
she fits in two hands
oh shes big !
so about 6 inches
i got her at the flower shop here
they can get to be like 10 inches long (shell) but that'd be a big one. . . and the females are bigger than males
that is a popular soup
frantique-- they have to be at least 4" here to be legal to sell, but you can own them younger than that-- just can't sell them in a pet store
they had some tiny babies before, but they were frail
How can you tell if they are male or female..its it visual or like my birds do they have to be DNA tested?
awww baby turtles
actually frantique, they don't have X and Y chromosomes, DNA would tell you nothing!
actually, i'm not sure she really is a she
i just wanna think it's a she from her behavior
wow all these turtle facts that i didnt know
there's a difference in their anal openings, claw length, shell shape. . . some of them are subtle. The claw one is easiest for me to tell. Mine isn't big enough yet though to tell-- they have to be 4" or so before you can tell
i gave her a unisex name to be safe
the thing that determines their gender is the temperature at which the eggs incubate
ah
what's the claw one?
have u turned them over and looke for a projectile?
i actually can't tell if mine is male or female yet-- he's too little. He's only 2.5 inches. He was drowning in our pool and we saved him and rehabilitated him, but he is too domesticated to put back in the wild
*looked
ardilla-- males have longer claws for mating rituals. If you look online, there are images to show the differences, and once you have seen a few, you can easily distinguish yours as long as it has reached maturity
hello everyone
Today is national WOMANS day, and go figure it's also National Cereal Day. I guess women dont want to cook today so the kids and men eat cereal
hi
hey sadie
hiya nance
they don't have those nance-- but the cloacal opening is different on males than females. It's hard to see though, especially if your turtle pulls his tail in when you flip him
:o)
sadie? have you heard what atlanta's weather will b this weekend?
^^ nerd extraordinaire 8-D
her name is e-ppeo-yo
must dash. have fun all, and thanks for the turtle lesson
it's korean for pretty
since she's a korean turtle
sweet name ,,,bye
ok april - i didn't have a clue but, thinking of a maile projectile immediately popped into my old noggin'
*salutes* any time, frantique. Have a good day ;)
Yikes! Is this the most words ever in a grid? I may be here all day!
bye frantique - hb
nance-- it's probably not something that normal people would know. I'm just an extreme nerd.
no your are not april - i'm just a nut to mention it - LOL
Superflippy - nope, there's been over 500 words in a grid once or twice
oh man movieman-- i think i'd just close the window, lol
lol
MM said a word, PB--------------->
Hope there's plenty of Subway sandwiches in there, jac
superflippy - your icon looks like one of those air-filled balloon figures that are showing up all over - have any of y'all seen them?
500 words??? it would take me a week to do that one sheesh
that sounds really good, movieman
Only st5/10 bread and water, MM.:D
I know what you're talking about, nance. lol.
It's been months since a 500+
if there's subway there-- maybe i should say a word to get in!
every time i see one i laugh myself silly (or sillier than i already am)
I hardly ever go to McDonalds or BK anymore now
the subway near me has $5 foot longs for ALL footlongs except that monster one. Yay franchises!
In my opinion, Subway is the best thing to come across the Atlantic
the ONLY good thing about McDonalds is the Shamrock Shakes in March
i am a sucker for the Big Mac tho
That'll be a St. Patrick's Day thing, april?
any1 reach halfway (164.5) yet on the words?
i love the green milkshakes
well, they've changed the fries, which was the one wothwhile occ. treat; now I only get plain McGriddles w/ round egg occ.
65 words left to find here, nance.
Hi all....a clue please for en7?
my turtle's mad that i woke her up while checking her out
yes movieman-- they are mint
did you figure it out, ardilla?
wonderfully dne jacula
went there for a shake other day at dinner time....got told they were cleanin the shake machine .....I was livid lol .....who in their right minds cleans shake machine at dinner time...sigh
hey flask
97 here Jac.....
no en here
en 7 en + canvas home + repeat 1st letter
i think it's a girl
sadie-- on the bright side, at least you know it gets cleaned occasionally, which is more than I would have suspected from McDonalds
en7 = an agreement or alliance.
flask - try EN + what you sleep in when camping + a vowel
en7 - a kind of cordial agreement?
They sound gorgeous, april, I love mint flavored things
And good morning/afternoon all.
thanks Dan and Haz!
nothing was sticking out from under there
DARN IT - wonderfully done, jacula
lol april yea
hey haz
hi haz
Hello, Haz.:)
Hello there - a great grid today!
hiya Haz
i'm stuck with 187 left

I've got 178 left
Just my kind of grid, Haz!
Oh look, we've had the same idea for icon, Jacula!
14 more words and then i will let myself use the list :-D

?
Same picture and everything!
*refreshes* Oh, so we have, Haz. I was only seeing Spangle.

I'll change.
Are you sure, Haz? I was going to change to pa9. LOL

april, just posted pic of e-ppeo
Ah, the most important words in the grid Haz!
ah, I have those two, I meant the other set - sorry
JMann - te + 'ring' + what you cook in, then plural it.
start rhymes w/ beg of Fr military leader, ends in cooking vessels
cutie, ardilla
thanks
Goodness, it takes a long time to refresh when the word count is biggish.
It does, Haz!

Hellp pink and EmaMaria.
Well, that's all the 'c' words out of the way. Laundry calls and I have to prepare dinner. BBL.
thanks again nDanLia
See you later, Jacula.
by jacula
bye jacula!
or bye even
a clue please for the last LO word..[lo5/10]
bye Jac!
add ry & you'd like to win it flask
lo5/10 - A bit like what Camelot promotes, but change the final vowel.
thanks Haz!
nice te6 haz
You're welcome - having much rain today?
not a drop Haz!...beautiful sunshine very windy tho'?
Thanks nDan - they come in all shapes - I have te6/21 shaped fridges, washing machines, kitchen sinks. His imagination is amazing.
No rain, Flask? It's been bucketing here!
Haz can I ask for 2 x pe5/12....the one after the skins and the one after the animals please?
its been spring sunshine all day in London, Haz!
Remember am in the East ......
pe5/12 - one is a type of pasta
yeh, its lovely here....
pe5/12 - the one after the animals doubles the consonant and adds a vowel to the end.
lol....oh dear....bet you're wishing you had never asked!
Oh well. I suppose the rain helps to keep the grass green.
thanks for those....
Yes, Flask, I had hoped to hear consoling words like 'yes isn't it rotten weather'.
You're welcome, Flask.
I kinda thought that......
Can I please ask for one more.......please????
But of course.
la5/10.....the one before the baby equipment?
la5/10 - a variation of coffee?
ok thankyou....thats greyed out more boxes for me........
Well done - it's always satisfying to see them turn grey.
ac 7 clue?
ac7 - an altar attendant - ac, a vowel, a misspelling of the opposite of heavy or dark
an7 is similar
am7, that is
back for round two!
stet; ignore last
thanks haz
You're welcome, ruru.
thanks ndan.. two outta the way
55 left BBL, happy babbling all!!
Bye pink!
bye pink
bye pink
well i'm back without saying, "I'll be right back."
grr-- i know what ac7 is, i just don't know how to spell the misspelling of the opposite of dark/heavy
i had to order an obi for my husband
welcome back, nancethefan
Bye Haz, Ema, and Ardilla!!
april, use the sometimes vowel.
starts with ly
THANK you haz
thanks ardilla
i just figured it out
Not an obituary, nance? I know you were annoyed with him earlier but....
those sometimes vowels are tricky
grrrr... phantoms canister and penalty ... wish I coud stop seeing them
go around sounding like real vowels
that's the sash for a kimono, right?
PO5s!!!
That's my understanding, just checking it isn't short for her death tribute.
i totally just caught myself from using a grid word :-D
what does the hawaiian goose start with? drawing a blank...
ne4/4
nevermind
lol - no obituary - he's been in the martial arts for 36 years - it's the sash he wears around his waist - it's red & white with black japanese writing
WOuld some one direct me towards the first al 5/10?
Okay, my mind is set at rest, re the obi.
ne double for the bird
al5/10 - be al5/10 for all clues
be on the al5 for a escaped convict, ruru
omg.. fish me please
al 5/10 - by oneself
no, the first one nance
;)
hello all
can
can't see last to5/10
hi periwinkle
hi peri
april - that is my first one
lol
Hello peri. Doing this in stages, I take it? It's a lovely grid.
yes stages, it is
peri - sum it all up
to5/10 is a plural, Incorporate lots of Spanish cheer
hi peri
ok, i'm back to play for a while
Sorry, ignore that, peri, I didn't scroll down far enough!
have that one Haz, it is the last to5/10 I need
to5/10 - completion of a sum should give this.
peri - sum it all up
there are 329 words to5 periwinkle
sorry meant to5/12
to + not neg.
to5/12 - to plus what we call to mail a letter, minus final letter.
darn - i don't have the to 5/12 either
thanks Haz and nDan, was going in circles looking for that one
i must get cracking here
You're welcome, peri.
gray day here today, supposed to get rain later today
got my errands done early
an 6/18 # please
has Scarlet been on today?
an6/18 - a plural for an5/10 - add the Spanish cheer
yes peri, a while ago
She was on earlier, peri, but not for long.
ok, missed her then
She'll probably be back again - she'll either be mopping out her basement or revelling in this grid.
sh'e getting more rain
spanish cheer?
weather in the southern part of US is crazy this year
still 130 left to find
ru - think bullfights
we need after the last 5 tho peri
What bullfighters and Spanish dancers allegedly shout. last three letters of h*** in the ground.
I have that one..I need the second an 6/18
any clues for second st7 please?
an6/18 - as sported by some animals
deer head gear
oh that was it
st7 - add French masculine 'born' to the end of st5/10 preceding.
s + phone prefix + ** sounds like leg joint
thanks haz
and Dan
You're welcome, flosey.
hello all. holy moly a biggie today.
help w/ st 5 10s after st 7 28 - I have the office worker
need a break, bbs
need help with po8 please
st5/10 - as used to widen, think in terms of a medical procedure.
duh, tx
Which po8 do you need, flosey?
guess it's the first one, have all other po words
what's the multiplier for a 7-letter word?
6
?
po many prefix & anagram of one 13-19
po8/55 - like a manmade material, lacking an h.
thanks ardilla :-) I like your turtle pic
multiplier is length - 3
ohhh a formula. Thanks, nDanLia
A 7 letter word has its points muliplied by 4. 5 is doubled, 6 is tripled.
clue for st7 pls?
I can't find anywhere to go with the ap's what am I doing wrong?
Good afternoon all........
st7 can either be an adverb for st5/10, (in majestic fashion)
hi caitlyn
Or st7/28 - adding masculine French 'born' to the preceding st5/10
Hello caitlyn. Did you visit your neighbour today?
OK, 100 left. Time to take a break!
ap7/40 - to imitate in monkey fashion (three letters) a fairy story, replacing the last vowel with a sometimes one
Hi Haz I popped in last night when it was quiet, she is spaced out at the monent ,hubby has just gone in now
ap7/32 - one of special 12 chosen by Jesus
ru - up, SE, up, SE
Is she medicated? Does that explain the spacing out?
thanks Haz, finally got the po8
ap8 - one who forsakes his religion
That's good, flosey.
I think so,she needs to be,its enough to drive anyone over the edge especially in her frame of mind
hi all!!!
I know, caitlyn. Bereavement does strange things even when you're of reasonably sound mind.
hi Ata
back from an emergency trip to the cotswolds!
Hi Ata
Hello Atalante - we were about to issue a Missing Persons warning.
keeping her in mind caitly; will bbl
And is all well now, Ata?
I'm sorry - I hate running off without warning!
It's okay - we surmised that it was probably an emergency of some sort.
yes, all is well now, after many stitches and buckets of blood and lots of scrubbing blood from cushions and floors and toy cats
doesn't that sound dramatic!
I hate to say this, but CSI springs to mind. They can still find tiny drops of blood despite your best efforts....
Stitches failed? Lots of blood?
What is even worse for her if possible is that the 1st night she spent by herself afew weeks ago she forgot to lock her front door and someone went in and stole her purse,phone etc.They have caught the man but it makes things even worse
Oh caitlyn, of all the people to choose to target. That's horrible.
yep. both the external and internal stitches failed *sigh* much rushing into hospitals etc etc
She certainly doesnt deserve all the horrible things that are happening
Ata are you okay?
I'm fine! this was my sister. and she's ok now too
Poor girl. Surgery is all very well but healing is so necessary and difficult when you're not healthy to begin with.
Thank heavens for that
hey caitlyn
hey atalante
I found the last two ap's cannot get to the first...***********thinking*******
i'm back again without saying i was gone - lol
Hi nance!
she's going back into hospital on monday for a proper clean-up and stitch-up
ruru, ap7 - first three letters as of the monkey/imitator, a fairy story is also known as a fairy **** (sounds like what a dog wags) but replace the vowel at the end with the sometimes vowel
just got it from the first clue thank you haz... I missed the tail so to speak...
OR ap7 - a plus a part of a flower, finish with the sometimes vowel.
Glad you've got it now, ruru. A new word for me.
survived the a's finally..
Did you find it on morewords?
And now do you sail into c word territory? Yes, I found it in morewords.
thank you haz
You're welcome, nance.
I dont think I should start this today .... or should I?
Atalante, will you have to go back up to her on Monday when she goes back to hospital?
It's a great grid, Atalante, not too many strange words.
nope! mother is back from Australia on sunday! woot!
i didn't see the southern word for a spud
You should be okay with it if you feel like it Ata
That's a great relief for you!
Nance, it starts from the t in the second row.
How long will she back in for Ata?
only a few days I hope
hey to anyone i missed while i was galavanting
i know caitlyn - i meant i missed it the entire time i have been playing this am
thank you tho
hi ata
Tell her people in babbleland are sending her healing vibes
haz, still not getting st7
who is under the weather?
other than me?
Atas sister nance
yes
st7/28 - do you have st5/10 which precedes it?
she will b in my prayers ata, as well as you ardilla
yes
I'm not sure I'm ever going to be able to see past jalapeno LOL
LOL Ata
The st5/10 before it is an anagram of the dishonest sounding metal. Add the first two letters of the type of publication of which The TImes or The Guardian or New York Herald (?) are examples
i hope ou can because it's not there
ardilla sorry I forgot to ask if you are feeling better today

Bye for now april
LOL Haz your age is showing!!
So I'll finish - as spoken by the late Magnus Magnusson! You'll enjoy it, Atalante.
tyvm haz bye april
I know, caitlyn, I was a babe in arms when I watched it. I loved Ilya Kuriakin.
that man swore like a trooper
Oh and me!
lol
Well, at least he didn't do it on TV, Atalante!
i'm feeling a little better today, still coughing a lot
stomach is finicky
he did behind the scenes! We saw Mastermind being filmed one day and we were all horrified!
You see, caitlyn, I knew you'd remember them as well.
I think you need one of my hot toddys ardilla
My mum told me about them Haz!
thanks, caitlyn
Well, may you be forgiven, caitlyn.
Man from UNCLE? wasn't that before colour TV? and 1940s or something?
LOL

lol
Only 85 words so far...ugh
Not me nance
yay & hey uniquity
Hi Uni
Fireworks, now must run, late!!

It may have been before colour but not quite that old. They had sliding doors and everything, hidden entrances and it wasn't scary.
Congrats flosey!!!
Congratulations flosey!

No, David McCallum is.
that's right
i must have read something wrong - so sowwy
I'm realising I started this whole segment.
I think you guys are talking yourself in circles...Check IMDB.com instead, :)
llhaz
Uniquity - we're happy. We were in the sixties.
yep we were
I missed all the good years, not fair.
When sliding doors were new-fangled and tv audiences were impressed with a few flashing lights.
I vaguely remember the show
No babble in the 60s though Haz, think it through
mom watched it when I was small
uni check out my icon
No computers in the sixties to speak of either. We were a simple people.
Speak for yourself LOL
I noticed you are no longer two little girls, but only one! Is this the younger of the pair?
no this is niece Ava
she is almost 7 months old
She looks adorable...gives little girls a good name! :)
all i am doing now is typing the first words i typed when i started the grid - grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
hehe she is a sweetie
saw her and her older brothers last weekend
Beautiful eyes...very dark. Gonna be a heartbreaker, as they say
heh if her dad ever lets her out of the house!
That's what school is for!
ok - i believe babble miscounted the number of words in the grid - it is actually 135 words - LOL
I'm going to take a quick break to get the evening meal under way. I'll be back sooner or la5/10.
I personally think 103 words lol
LOL nance!!
89 sounds good to me, Nance.

Hi TO

I was doing much better here until i deicded to go to the list...my belief that would speed tings up was obviously incorrect!
Thats what I thought
bye haz hi TO & uni & praise
Hey TO, Ardilla
hey! don't really have much time today, i took a youga class for lunch
last co 7/32 please?????
How was it TO? I adore certain branches of yoga

Dvorak is not uncommon, just not anywhere near usual ;)
hi all -- la 7 is now i l** me down to sleep + female smurf, smurf****
Ah ... a baby "smoking jacket." Hee hee lol
I've read books about techies who use it, but never been shown the layout before. Interesting
hi, ro! now i'm really going to feed cats and bathe. yay it's raining :)
Hi pk
this one is a monster today!
hey dc... i make you wanna bathe???
ohh, never heard of it...i had a crib :)
hi pk
rolin !! its not like you to be grumpy LOL
clue please for ca6/21...the FIRST one?
weeeel caitlyn...enable wont let me have my favourite melon...
is la7 a british term?
don't think so......
That's cuz we need a U for that melon, if it's my favourite too! :)
but its listed in google without the 'u' ...uni..
never heard of it before
Is it? Maybe a British/American thing..
I think its French??
if i had the la7 i could tell you
I think it's just an old fashioned term Krysten
Yeah--there's no U
is an7/36 related to an6/18?
oh, ok
ca6/21 please.....FIRST one
I'm thinking it is just American spelling vs. American. There is a U in the way I have always read and written it, and I follow Brit spelling
its a kind of oil flask
la7 - all the junk one gets to start out a baby
hi flask & krysten
ends with French feminine diminutive
Vic's starting out babies? What, you mass produving them? :)
oh - yes, i guess thats fairly european
well thats no help[ to me whatsover!!
I already mass produced them, Uni. Not as mass as OrangeCat, it's true, but mass enough.
Thats it Im taking the phone off the hook!!
Hi ardilla. Big hellos to everyone in babbleland
flask...small tin + spanish greeting
and I only spell it with a u too :) (((Ata)))
As someone with 7 brothers, I think there is more you can do, silly girl..
Hi Krys and anyone I missed
fm!!!!!
Hello again!
petty
hi FM & vi
na8 clue?
oops
Does anyone have a normal clue for ca6/21 please?
Haz, FM, Ata, yay!
Hi haz!
The Three Muskateers :)
Doing them serially doesn't count as mass production, Uni. It's just a long career of slow production!
never mind
FMitch!! Thank you I know I asked for367 words but you did well getting me 329!!
You can cook with vegetable or ca**** oil, Flask (hope this is the right one)
Hello, everyone, by the way.
Hi Vic
na8 - one half of na8 so4/4 played by Robert Vaughan in Man from UNCLE> French meglomaniac.
Quality over quantity, huh Vic?
lol caity, we aim to please.
ca6-type of healthy oil
Flask1-ca6/21-a tin ca* + the Spanish hello without the h
clue for an7/36 pls? is it related to an6/18?
woot got the 10 all by myself
Yeah for Ata
Well, the mass production comes in doing them all at once. I make no claims for quality, just for speed.
Has anyone been to Prague? Just found out I'm going in May!
ca + NY yankee outfielder who hit alot of homer runs mickey ma****

Ata it is good to see you back.
I hear Prague is beautiful. Mozart premiered many works there.
an7/36 - ends in funny spelling of opp of dark
Lots of people have been to Prague, though not me, as yet. It's a very popular destination these days.
Hi bubba
Hey Cait

Should have been more specific Haz! Meant have any of you fellow choggers been, and any recommendations on places to stay?
I would like to be one of those many people.
Hi, Ardilla
mmm...we're gonna have fish and chips for dinner
I've heard the pubs are the best Caitlyn
Have no fear, Ata's here? That's what my angels are for, i guess...but no more unauthorized missions :)
my parents loved it too
*waves at Haz from the back of the crush*
pk a lot of stag parties are going there now What a waste
oh haz..when are you off to prague?
yes ma'am!
I'm not going to Prague, rolin, it's Krakow on 5 May.
(This is how rumors get started.)
Stag parties, ick
Hello FMitch - use your elbows, woman and get a better spot.
with peter or george?
yeah thats what i remembered..i thought you were going mad and going to two places
Have fun in Prague, pk. I've never been anywhere but am going to Mexico in Apr. Woohoo.
lol it's OK I've got my heels on so I have a good view :)
With husband. I went on safari with him, he's coming to museums with me.
And FMitch's elbows are about eye level to the rest of us, so she can do some real damage.
pk..are you looking for a place to stay in prague???
Krys sounds like fun
Mexico sounds lovely Krysten
hope so
Yes, Rolin. Looking for recommendations...
yah, 127 left
FMitch mind you dont sprain your ankle!

You guys all change countries and I will just shuffle around my little province, as usual :)
Where do you live Krysten? I'm in Rochester, NY, the dumping grounds for snow!
Getting first aide box ready..........

ap8/45 - one who abandons religion, ends in one of US 50
it looks wonderful -- thanks rolin
tyvm
Haz love your icon clue, great example of one.
np...we had a fab time there
ladies
Haz hubby has been to see neighbour she is as I saw her last night she must be sedated
Thank you! I don't actually own this particular example, but I have one-cup fridges and washing machines and kitchen sinks.
clue please for ap7/40..ap8/45 please?
It makes it difficult to know how much she's taking in, caitlyn. It's hard for everyone.
kitchen sinks, couldn't it at least be a diswasher version lol
monkey + boot country - 1st letter
for ap7
ap7/40 - a, a part of a flower, finish with the sometimes vowel
You'd think so, wouldn't you, FMitch? They're fun little things, great attention to detail.
*boot shaped country
Oh, Haz beat me, but my icon clue is the ap7/40.
Flask, if you have ap7/32 - one of the Biblical chosen, use the first five letters and add consumed food to the end (for ap8/45)
Oh, so that's what it means! Someone this morning thought it meant suitably, but I hadn't looked it up myself.
*shaking head*..theres a report on the news that there will be the first female cage fight on at wembley this weekend
theres something to be proud of..*sigh*
How uplifting, rolin.
Afternoon, all!
Hi Judi
Hello Jud!
We've come a long way, baby?
hi jud
maybe im just losing touch haz
Oh, darn. Can't cage fight this weekend. Have pneumonia.
vic...did we wanna come to this?
Can you imagine a girl telling a careers advisor 'I fancy a bit of cage fighting'
LOL Judi I heard its Haz fighting!LOL
One of my best friends does cage fighting
It's deplorable, rolin, and you haven't lost touch.
Apparently some of us did! Of course, I've never understood why we wanted to come to smoking, either, so I'm not one to ask!
i had enoughntroubkle trying to get a careers officer to take one of my girls seriously when she said she wanted to be a fire fighter
Oh come on, Atalante, you'll have to tell us more.
Yes, Ata. What's the inside scoop on the cage fighting scene?
really ata....why?
LOL *grins* ok. where to start ....
HI all, never heard of cage fighting
My daughter (second) once told a careers advisor that she fancied being a personal shopper if all else failed.
There are quite a few female fire fighters isnt there rolin?
Hi peri
lol... i could understand that..haz
Hello peri. Atalante is about to educate us.
hi fellow Babblers... this grid is just full of words that I are not in my vocabulary!
yes caitlyn there are... and i encouraged her with it...just had some trouble conmvincing others
Hi Aloy
*pops in to let haz know that her daughter sounds brilliant to me!*
this guy - I grew up with him from age 0 upwards - is a complete sci-fi and fantasy nerd, very shy, very retiring, still lives with his mum (my godmother). He took up some form of martial arts and became very good at it, then decided to turn to cage fighting. we were all flabbergasted. but he didn't do very well and has gone back to martial arts lol
Hello Aloy.
Hi Eva
hi eva & aloy
its scary!
allo. :)
I have never heard of it
i don't even know what "cage fighting" is! (feeling rather stooopid today)
She said it semi-jokingly, but who knows, she could make a career out of it. She's dangerous to be with when you're shopping because you're persuaded to part with more money than you ever intended.
Oh, well, Ata, that's nothing special: I have plenty of friends who would be BAD at cage fighting! lol
it is scary... and the young woman who was interviwed sad...well its better than being in a street fight...???!!!
but he did do it! and held his own for a bit ...
is it boxing?
going to go to sleep for a bit with 123 to go since party across the hall finally quieted down...good night all :)
Was there not an episode of Friends about cage fighting?
I'm teasing. I trust he did not sustain permanent damage?
aloy...apparently its a combination of all martial arts approaches...with the combatants ina cage...literally.. where they just beat each other to a pulp
cage fighting is usually "mixed martial arts"
OMG rolin I am now feeling my age...and I dont care
Good night ardilla.
luckily, no! but we're all very glad he decided it wasn't for him!
im with you caitlyn...
ty for the info rolin.. is it televised?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixed_mar tial_arts
Have a good sleep ardilla feel better soon
sounds terrible, nothing I would like to watch
i hope not aloy... i wlouldnt support this kinda thing becoming mainstream
thanks caitlyn
hi all
It worked for the Romans.
i agree, peri.. i don't watch boxing either
hi & bye TO
Hi, I'm back... briefly. Haz - you might like this site: http://www.cardewclub.com/
Hi again TO
maybe we'll get to feed people to lions again
no boxing for me either
see...i will watch a boxing match
*confesses* I really enjoy watching "extreme" cage fighting. It's catching on here in the states. It's kind of boxing, wrestling and martial arts all mixed up. Very technical. Fighters' training regimen is very intense.
Hi Jac
Hi Owl
hi & bye jac
I wouldn't be surprised to see a gladiator reality show being tried out one of these days. And the thing is, people would line up begging for the chance to risk their lives on television.
LOL Ata I can think of a few I would like to feed the lions with
It kind of had a "professional wrestling" hype about it when it first appeared. Now it seems to have gone a bit more upscale with major sponsorship.
Hi & 'bye, ardilla. Sleep well!
Thanks Jacula - I haven't been buying many of them recently but take great pleasure in what I do have.
i think youre right ..vic...
if you watch the sanctioned mixed martial arts/cage fighting events, there are rules + real techniques... i find it quite astounding to watch...
me too, cait
Hello TO - nearly missed you there.
Yes, but women fighting in cages?
Hey, TO!
i have to say....i am as feminist as most... but a woman in a fight cage is a step too far..
Pork chops are nearly cooked, must go and make the stuffing see you tomorrow. Bye
I don't see that there should be an issue with women doing it vs men doing it. but whether it should be televised at all is another matter
See you caitlyn.
bye, caitlyn... yum, pork chops
hmm..and i should set the table too.. bbl
I think the cage fighting thing is for the benefit of men, like female mud wrestling.:(
I'm with Ata. I don't think it's a matter of men or women. Just of people taking delight in seeing other people get hurt.
Haz - do you stick to a theme with yor collection?
*your
It's always a bad sign when the word-finding grinds to a halt and there are still enough words left to make a respectable grid for another day.
lol YES!
I tend to buy the one-cup te7, and tend to stick with the ones that pretend to be something they're not. So a sewing machine (I know!), washing machine, fridge, gardener's bench, tea-table etc. The bigger ones are great, but too expensive!
Haz & Ata, ever come across a springer that persistently nips/bites? BF is working at a house with one.
Haz - I remember my Godmother had a set that were like cottages - the whole thing with cups etc. I've since seen it in an antiques guide and it's worth quite a bit.
Evening Jacs :)
Willow bites your hand off when you're trying to give her food, but other than that ...
I think I know the sort of thing you mean.
hi FMitch!
Yay Aloy!! Hello.
Darn - teatime, must attend to family but will be back later!
Bye Haz
Goodbye, Haz.
Hi, FM.
'Bye, Haz.
wish we did "tea time".. bye, Haz
Ooh, I just found Monsieur Bonaparte. Surprised I didn't spot him before.
does anyone have the 2 e's on the corner
Well, Jac, it's easy to overlook him. He's so short.
lol, vicuna!
I haven't started the grid and think I will leave it alone. too big to start now.
LOL, Vicuna!
Mmmmm. Na8/45 would go especially well with tea.
help with 2nd re7 please
I've only just started, FM!
well, maybe an hour ago
peri...say again
lol but you are more of a masochist than I
to say again, peri
I'm wondering if it was a mistake to start today. I am a Babble pe4/5. =P
why thank you :)
thanks Aloy and rolin
you're welcome dear (glad to see you back)
rolin - es5/12 = e + 'Halt' es7 = gentrys' land.

Dinger's going off. Must get beef canneloni out and put garlic baguette in.
lol, do you all ever find yourself transfixed with little yellow boxes in front of your face? mesmerizing
BBL
of course it is
i gave up afte 45 mins I found 27 words...
I can't see the words today...period
Bring it on!!
The letters are dull today, though the words are many
I can't see A's today
Debating on whether or not to go out to get a Shamrock Shake. Would make throat feel better I think.
i only see about 10 of the same words reppeated over and over in every direction..an dI just can't see through that
that would make your name tlnte then
I keep seeing "lottery" which isn't actually in there.
Huh. I've got 22 A's already. You'd think that would be enough. But NOOOOOO... there are plenty more still to go...
And "cantelope"
and 58 P's
i'm still staring..and I just don't see it..so..I gave up..accepted defeat..and am IGNORING IT
carlee, are you turning your back on the grid?
i TURNED my back upon todays grid...
... and all the letters moved around when you weren't looking.
Awww. Carlee, don't give up. Even if you can't find the words, the company is always pretty good.
ooo I've already got 40 of the Ps!
i said grid..not chat
well, you all make me feel better.. (-: back to staring..
I've got 22 with no end in sight.

YAY, kiwi!
i replied in more detail below, between scrabs and kiwi
keeping our fingers xd for you dc and good thoughts
a clue for to7/28 please
DD comes home with a word for the day each evening...NONE of it has stuck with me
scrabs, I have a professional query for you, a general question. You can email me [ikonerding@wesleyan.edu] At what age does your practice suggest starting solid food?
70 is not too shabby all things considered!
ok i am outta here gonna go enjooy the garden while i can since i finished all the hosuework last night lol see ya all for flip
mybella: TO + Marie Antoi*****
Lost her head, poor lady.
gdine, your cat looks like one of my former ones
Thanks Scarlet
You're welcome, mybella!
How many 7 letter words did any of you get?
For sure at 6 mo, bichon, with cereal, as babies need an extra source of iron at that age. Starting earlier is optional, with the disadvantage being higher risk of causing food allergies and filling up on cereal instead of breastmilk/formula which are all babies need nutritionally for the first 6 mo.
That's Sammy...got her while living on Guam
agreed, gdine, esp since i'm taking the class for friend. A long-time friend originally from Morocco has offered to help - i'm going to take her up on the offer.
Ty, Scarlet
i have 15 of 28 7s so far, ionie
Where's your class again? DD is in Alexandria, VA
er, taking teh class for fun...
I have just 7 of the 7s.
You're welcome, Scrabbler.
oh my, guam gives me the icks. is your hubby enl or officer? sships or aviation?
Brilliant! dcseain
I'm at the Annadale campes of NOVA
DH is medical officer
my 1st class ever in the Nursing building there
I was surprised and happy to monkey an NA8 just now... the short conqueror for whom a psychological "complex: is named...
I liked Guam....lived there twice...82-84 then 2000-03
ah. i am familiar with the aviation side.
which is no longer used for nursing, since the Medical Education Campus opened in Springfield last year.
TY, Scarlet!!
:-) Scrab!
when i think guam i think of the snakes
suck
Everyone mentions the snakes, but they are mostly in the jungle and only active at night....so....no tromping around in the jungle at night, no problem!
Ants were a MUCH bigger problem!!
I learned to really hate ants
Lol....sn 4 what comes out your nose
that re6 reminds me that i need to have that done to a pair of shoes i have.
TY, Seain.
so6, pls?

Thanks, I have that one I need the other one
AP7/40 = AP* + large simian-like creature + ***ly Ho! from the fox hunters, and add the sometimes vowel
Oh, I sang my song for nothing?
Scrabbler, No, you did not...we all enjoyed your beautiful voice
*pops in wondering -- why did I start this one?* while singing Old McDonald had a grid . . . A E A E O :P
What an odd word, Scarlet!
And di you like my choreography too?
Yes, Scrabbler, and I will look it up when I am done. Glad you found it from my very clunky clue!
thx scarlet!
You're welcome, Lauren!
Scrabbs, you tap dance beautifully too..just like Ginger

Hi, peri.
Miss Owl, no work for you, off to the PB------>
hi dc, was reading from before . glad to see youre starting to feel better
hi peri. bye peri.
hi peri
hi scarlet!
DOH!
LOL
ty, beth
i have noticed today there are not many clues in icons, is everyone tired of clue icons?
hi, peri
hi Periwinkle
FM had a great icon..gave me the 9 and 10
Here you go TO I've dressed for the occasion
LOL Annie, just happened to be passing the PC.
and there you are, FM
mitch, i thought you were an ap7
very nice, FM
Hi dc Never thought of that TO multiple word clues with one icon ... now theres a challenge.
I had the PO 9& 10 from years of listening to Ray Stevens. Can someone give me starting letters for other 9?
pa9 is the other 9
hi everyone, snowing to beat the band here in ohio, hair looks nice dc
ty scrabbler!
ty, crpw. just changed to an icon clue.
Hi crpw--it has been snowing here for several hrs, with a major storm coming overnight and a winter alert thorugh Sunday at 8AM.
scrabs, how do you get to work when it's that bad?
I get there slowly, carefully and quite la4 sometimes.
made it to the store and stocked up for a few days seclusion, gives me a good reason to play babble
ok i gotta go listen to my ray stevens mp3s to get the po nine and ten
you must have a 4 wheel drive! is it far?
It's raining here today. it was fun watching Feldspar, my siamese who hates water, going out on the deck in the rain to watch, then running in and shaking off, regular as a pendulum.
I am working Sunday so it could be rather dreadful--with bad weather tomorrow parents will want to wait until Sunday to have their sick kids seen.
yes, 4 wheel and not to far to Kroger
an7 please?
oh boy...it is amazing you have sunday hours
It is 31 miles to my office--typically 45 min drive. I have a Subaru Forester.
Sorry the first an7 please?
good luck with that storm. we were suppose to get it too, but we got bypassed in sudbury ontario. southern ontario is getting it bad too.
first an7 like ac7
we are going to get more rain, another 2 inches, and flooding
Owl, I am not fond of Sunday office hours but it prevents unnecessary ER visits and lightens the load on Mondays.
Hi catmug, I am southeast of Buffalo
ty Scrabs -- I kept wanting the word with two Os. Duh.
it is raining where I am Owl
Ty, Dan
tyvm
i'd better go look out the window. see you! : P at anniebrook!
hi scrab, toronto expecting 50cm, so i imagine u guys will get more
here in the cinci area ice is mixed with the snow so you slide everywhere, daughter works at nearest hospital so she may chose to stay and work double shift, safer then on the roads
We are supposed to get 6-12 inches, and as i am in "ski country" we will be at the higher end.
hello all
73 left bbs
137 to go so you'd think I'd "see" more words!
Hi p2h
ooh, i got an invite to Myra & Jenise's Big Gay Tea Party :)
hi, praise
hope this is the last of the winter for everyone, i will allow this last storm and then I want spring
A tea party. What WILL you wear, Seain?
Hi, PwH.
well, better dig into the grid
something fabulous. must go shopping now. LOL
We can help you decide what to wear, Seain!
sadly, i don't know yet whether i'll be in Boston, well Somervile/Cambridge, that weekend yet :/
le
wow, expert sure hiccupped there
haha--I like that little addition there, seain
Daffodils are coming up in my yard.
Mom's recess is over -- back to work with 138 to go! *poof*
Where are you, scubadiver, besides under the sea?
we're oddly devoid of flowers here, seeing as we're concluding our 8th warmest Winter on record.
I need 133---why can't I see them???
for the same reason that I can't see them either!
dc, it should be almost cherry blossom time, no?
they've been sprited away, scrabbs an ata, and will return in their right and proper times.
E's, N's, and T's all over, messing with my brain.
indeed, bethn, the countdown has begun
So, should I take a nap now, Seain?
if it so suits you, scrabbs. cold days are always nice for that.
a town in nj belleville supposedly has a larger collection than dc. i dont know who has more, the are all gorgeous in bloom
I am not a napper, but I am so tired and cold, and am off tomorrow, so I might actually crawl back into bed soon.
well, we have multiple groupings of them, and they're all over the suburbs too. Cherrydale in Arlington, VA breaks out in them about when the Tidal Basin and Capitol Hill do, for example.
i'm looking forward to the azaelas at the Nat'l Arboretum, which are 6-8 weeks off.
Do you know that I have never visited DC yet in my life? I do need to do it someday.
oh, if you do scrabbs, you must let me know
a cherry tree was the first thing i planted when we moved into the house. i remembered them so fondly.
just went to the orchid show in he bronx arboretum beautiful display
That would be fun, Seain.
The first ta6 anyone? It is my last T word.
i once had tourists ask me how to get DC license plates, i told them 'live here'. They didn't believe me, so i handed them my driver's license, and they said 'what's this?', i explained it was a DC license showing i lived 15 blocks that way, and pointed.
they didn't believe that a half million people live in brick houses behind the marble monuments.
singing and acting are examplse of 1s ta6
Innate ability Scrabbler, such as a singer or artist
Funny story, Seain.
TY, Seain--and I got le4 from your clue too.
oh, an adj grows from the le4
Fireworks. Finally. The last 26 fought me hard.
TY--I see it, Seain!
ty dc

ac + * + **** opp heavy or dark; rhymes opp day
never been on a fox hunt, I am so dense about this one word......
L not 1
uses the sometime vowel. got it
thx
nancy - not short - l
well---they're not exactly apprentices, dc--more like servers. I've been one myself. Hope you're better, and hi, everyone. Particuarly embarrassing that I didn't get the ac 7 on my own.
That ten letter word is making fun of me. =~(
a clue for the 2nd te6/21 te7/32 please
ah, must have different uses in different traditions. shall read up on it's Xian usage.
3 famous people today, truman ca**** and na****** and pe** 10s - po [ruler]; 9s - pa[clothing];po[ruler] 8s - an[animal]; ap[converter (religious/ideals/party) in terms of former one]; ca[swelling on horse; what a baby superman might wear]; na[short frenchie or pastry]; po[chromosomal term; many prefix & anagram of one 13-19];po[how the ruler does things] ap7 monkey cousin + count - l po8 many prefix & anagram of one 13-19

Yahoooo nancy!

Sounds like a Spanish or Italian word for "pants, meaning trousers" Ata
ty scarlet, I'm on the right lines! I'll keep monkeying!
ty, scarlet.
You're welcome, seain and Ata, and I will go directly into the PB!
i think it's the Italian form
First st7 please?
got it finally! ty!
Poor Scarlet. She was only trying to help.
LOL, Thank you, Haz. You have made my sin a little more palatable.
1st st7 - dignified, formal
st 7 tall, statuesque
pa9 - take deep breaths in solitary confinement.
And I need the 2nd st7 too, please.
haz, love your icon
A tall, beautiful woman is called this, Scrab.
Haz! omg. just watching Crufts. the welsh springer is *gorgeous*
gd one Hazel
Hi Hazel
Hm, not starlet,
Excellent, Haz!
ca 6/21 before what soda comes in, plz.
Thank you dc - I love the te7 that I have. (nearly typed the full word and I would have been in the PB with Scarlet)
Of of the contiguous 50 here in North America, Scrab
Aha, an adjective ending for that first st7, TY!
Thats it Haz...I am obviously tuned in to your clues...thank you...and hello everyone !
Right, turning on TV.
brb, gonna get some chocolate
Hello, Karys!
Hi Karys
ca 6 is healthy cooking oil
Hello Karys!
Darn - I missed the Welshie.
its the gundogs thingy today. though ben fogle has just taken over the programme again. gah!
thx again, ndanlia
Seven left and they are all P words. I feel a touch "smug* because I didn't list until I had 28 left!
I think this may be out of my reach tonight...but will give it my best shot. Is everyone well and happy ?
I know - he's decorative and all but I'd rather see more dogs.
Move over, Atalante, Scarlet is pretty smug!
*sets out a Green & Blacks mint bar, and a 79% organic with cacao nibs in it.*
Very, Karys... and you and yours?
**Beats the rush to seain's offering**
I knew you'd like this grid, Scarlet.
they'll get back to the doggies in a minute!
**tackling Seain away from the table and grabbing all chocolate in reach**
Ata is too entranced with her doggies to care if I borrow a cup of smug, Haz.
all well here Scarlet, thank you
She has smug enough to spare.
you're allowed a cupful, scarlet!
This has been one of the most fun grids in a long time, Haz. LOL on Ata's overflow!! Thank you, Ms. Atalante!
am back, just had unhappy chat with son about a friend of his with a drug problem
:( how sad, beth
Too bad, Beth...is the kid getting help?
need help with some J's - have ja4,10, je4,9 and je5,20
oh dear beth...thats sad
Oh, a heartbreaking situation, beth.
JE 6 = JE + double consonants + little alien identity
i have not a single j yet, and i only have 95 left. I feel about Js like sprite does about Ks generally.
je + Easter Bo****
je 6 je + end easter bo****
je6/33
And je4=j + long, long time period
jo + not off
je + not off, that is
no, and hes not a kid anymore. just turned 32. his dad is wealthy so he bails him out literally makes me very unhappy to see such a wasted life. he is very talented musician
je6/33 - has the same structure as Miss Elizabeth's family in Pride and Prejudice.
oooh....thank you all, 'j's greyed now
What is his drug of choice, beth?
He is making the choice to be where he is at, Beth, but the father is the enabler.
:-) Karys.
indeed so, scrabbler
yes scarlet, dad fronted him the money to start a tree cutting business, i would be afraid for him with all that machinery
We all make the choices to be where we are.
ty, had to work, got the je4, now working on the je6
son said he used to have a dj business. sold all equipment to buy drugs
There is always the ongoing debate of choice vs disease.
got it, tyu
I imagine it must be tough for him to accept the reality or the extent of his son's problems. It's a shame he can't see how easy he (seems to) make it for his son
Beth, what is his drug of choice?
some people are more prone to addiction than others.
i think you may be genetically predisposed to have an addictive personality
meth scarlet, used to be crack
does anyone have a clue for the ac7?
I agree, beth and seain.
The American cocker spaniel is....different.
yes ..... give me a working english cocker any day!
Oh! Meth and crack are the downfall of civilization, Beth... he will need hard help to get into recovery.
I do like clumbers though
'Clumber' has a very large head !
I see many meth and crack users in this area... their faces, necks and arms shredded from scratching the "crack bugs".
there;s a *proper* cocker!
co 7/32 after co that means pricey, plz
isn't he pretty ?
Yes - is it Hobbit in disguise?
I want them to show the Welsh springer again
Ty, eieios
for what, scrab?
I've tried to grow Hobbit's coat out to a "show" cut. Not a hope.
i dont think he has any desire to scarlet. he has a business, is in band with my son, has a girlfriend and prospects of money when his dad passes ( mom is already dead) i dont give him g very good chance of a long life expectancy
No! The American has won!
For that co6, pricey word
she chose THAT? over a proper cocker??!!!
mmmmm...not quite my favourite !
Another American tragedy, Beth.
your welcome. =)
Sadly. Should we let the judge know that we think we know better?
send an email perhaps !
Demand a recount?
as of right now he does not look bad, son says he is noticing a loss of "good looks"
Has he begun stealing yet, Beth? Not showing for band gigs? Getting violent? Lying, not bathing and disappearing for periods of time?
yes! if a recount worked for George Bush ....
i'm glad that your son can, and is comfortable discussing it with you, beth.
could be here for days then Ata
co 7/32 after co that means pricey, pretty plz
If it worked for George Bush do we WANT a recount?
These RE words are annoying, as usual.
no Haz...poor dog needs to go home
They are all normal words, Scrab... maybe the RE6/18 toward the end: RE + mix up the letters in the 12-20 group.
hello , back to find more words 73 left
Welcome back, peri.
Hello Peri.
how is your basement Scarlet
he is not super reliable about band (has no personal vehicle, only huge trucks) does not want to spend money on car just meth. no violence or uncleanliness as yet
hello Peri
What is your son's opinion of where his friend is heading, beth? Does he want to distance himself?
how odd. it's almost 60ºF, but swear i see the odd snow flurries among the rain. I'm thinking might be an illusion against the white stucco.
TY, Scarlet--I needed that last re6. 3 more RE words to find
oh my. I can see Hobbit going for that paw cleaner ..... not!
wb, peri.
Trav (son) and i are very close, he has always been able to come and talk dc, used to have some very unusual dinner conversations
Flooded again, peri. You're welcome, Scrabbler.
sorry to hear that Scarlet
LOL...Ata...thats 'cos he's a proper dog !
That is why today's grid was such a welcome distraction, peri... but, it is going way too quickly.
That is very special, Beth. Youare both blessed.
co 7/32 after co that means pricey, pretty plz!
also need the en 7/28 too!
You reared him well, beth, and that kind of trust is rare today.
Poor, eieios, you are stil looking for that word!
scarlet, have yo pumps and/or drains?
trav is a very kind soul, has always tried to be there for friends, and defender of " odd ducks) if he thought he was in danger i think he would remove himself, but barring that he would not abandon him
co7/32 - has the same structure as a bird of prey beginning ke.
lovely to hear that, beth :)
good, i thought i was invisible today. =)
thanks Haz
TY, Hazel.
no, not inviibe, eieios :)
No, seain, we gave away our sump when we moved from Pennsylvania, and now, it is a matter of push-brooming the water to the outside and having our landlady get busy on water-proofing the old foundation.
hi, karys
You're welcome.
not getting that at all, haz....
oh, you rent, so tedious, but not your financial problem, just a PIA.
hello dc...you were deep in discussion when I arrived
once we got past the point where ii considered giving him to the gypsies ( he was a terrible toddler) things have been lovely
oh, but haz's clue is most excellent, eieios.
Beth, your son sounds like a gem of a human being.
how can a dog be called Fabulous Willy? *giggles*
apparently so :) sorry i missed your entrance
LOL again
Ack! Ata... that's awful!
en 7 28 en + canvas + start letter again
Under 100 to go! Time for a break--maybe a nap.
he is very charming & talented ( momspeak for unemployed)
please don't be sorry dc....
thx, ndanlia.
LOL, Beth... it will happen.
i will keep trying dc
he in school, beth?
i don't know my birds of prey. lol
co7/32 - to the co4/5 (the price) add three letters that begin another word for family.
first ap7 please
Or, co7/32 - the same basic structure as a feckless person beginning wa*****
finished rutgers in december, has been bartending at banquet houses & restaurants. is supposed to be saving money to move to NYC in july where he can audition etc.
eagles, hawks, ke7s, owls, toucans...
ap7 - a plus a flower part wrapped up in a sometimes vowel
monkey cousin + count - 'L'
toucans?
they eat rodents, beth
it's why their beak is so big.
Beth, does he want to act or sing?
i thought they ate breakfast cereal :) toucan sam
Fruit Loops!
yes, that is the popular image here :D LOL
thanks again Haz
thanks Haz, never would have found that one
You're welcome.
finally monkeyed that co. Sorry so dense today! thx for all the clues.
he is multi-talented (very unemployed) sings, acts, improv, composes, plays bass, electric, and acoustic guitar. i will forward his resume if anyone of you would like to hire him for weddings bar/batmitzvahs funerals wakes ...........:)
please hire my child
NY, DC, and Boston all have rich theatre communities.
communite theatre is a great way to work up to bidder things
that is what he is hoping for dc, he would like to take more acting and improv classes also writing and composing as well. he has a friend who works for a talent agency, so once he gets there at least he has a place to start.
i know a number of people that did community thatre, gradually moving up to larger companies, and eventually to smaller, and growing, parts with the larger more established houses here.
he's done quite a bit of that dc, right now he needs to earn enough mpney to finance his move to the city so he doesnt have the time to devote to a production
so there be hope in that vein, though it's not easy
yeah, that i understand
no, not a choice that warms the cockles of a parents heart. we support his choice of dream but we worry
down to 48 left, another break, bbs
ciao, peri.
Well, that was an interesting grid! My last word was a plural form of Sophia Loren's late husband!
Congratulations Scarlet!

Now to muffin-making, tea brewing (Lady Grey, thank you Ata) and a lovely evening of a nice, rich DVD, thanks to a certain friend who shall remain unnamed! {{Hugs}}

That sounds like a plan, Scarlet, enjoy!
oh! you've foundLady Grey??!

See you, Beth, and I shall! Yes, Ata!!! It is divine!
ly double dons+vowel
oh good! I'm so glad you like it!!

ly5 - ly, a double helping of a consonant, finish with a vowel. ly6 is the latin plural
I know I will, Haz. I do, Ata... and beloved has also taken quite nicely to it!

Well, I'm trying to get the y word. Is it right in front of me?
make a backward loop scuba
you haven't got it y...
scuba, you don't have it y** ? (with and extra cons)
ye 4-- add double consonant
Hmm... I got it, but I though I typed it before!
good to see someone else here likes diving
Yes--I'm a fanatic. Will do six dives in the next two days.....
Oops--three days.
Have you dived in Croatia?
cool scuba, where?
excellent! me too
my husband & i dive when we vacation
no - I haven't dived that much in Europe, apart from the UK
Northwest coast of N America-San Juan Islands, Vancouver Island, etc.
All cold water stuff
Croatia is astonishingly clear.
neat, scuba, though being a temperate rain forest zone, must be fascinating territory.
Except once in the Caribbean, and twice in Hawaii, and once in Mexico.
teal
I've dived in the UK, Spain, Philippines, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Tahiti, Moorea, Cook Islands ...
oops, I keep typing in the wong field....Can't get out of the habit.
I've heard there's a dive charter out of portsmouth that'll take you over to Omaha Beach for some diving in the ruins.
impressive ata, must have been magnificent
Its been fun. The joys of bumming round the world working at random dive places!
And you haven't been to Cinqueterre in Italy?
Aha! You're in the business?
You've not been to Canada diving yet?
well, I'm a marine biologist who has been working on coral reefs for years. And a dive instructor. so yeah, I guess I'm in the business LOL
no, I'd love to though
Well, I can be in to the beach in 15 minutes, and then go diving and find GPO's (Giant pacific octopus). The most I've seen on a dive was eight, and my dive butty saw twelve on the same dive. Woah. And you don't want to mess with them--3 meters from tip to tip! LOL -:)
excellent! octopi are fuuuuuun!
Oh. These are AMAZING.
lol sounds like when we went diving with a whale shark. that was ... well ...
Ahh! I'd love to do that. By the way, we have sixgills here. What an amazing thing to tail them.
oh cool. sharks are fab.
If you're interested, I maintain a dive web site with pictures, data, etc. Am I allowed to put a URL on here?
yep!
I'm stuck on the words...Looking for some :
:
Ah.. crud.. Looking for some L words.
Well, here goes: http://home.comcast.net/~attblsmith/Sc uba/Scuba.html
scuba, www.tinyurl.com is your friend in this chat, it eliminates URL wrapping.
does anyone have a clue for the AP 7/40 8/45 pair?
phan, they're not related.
*le sigh* evenin babblers... always nice to come home + witness a car crash outside your house...
oh, darn; still need clues anyway...
lovely site, scuba!
ap8 - a person who forsakes his religion, cause, party, etc.
ewww, at least your weren't in the crash
AP7 = monkey + boot-shaped country without the 1st letter
Eva... WHAT HAPPENED?
Hello everyone!
a friend of mine in Silver Spring, Maryland had a five-car accident in front of their house yesterday, too Eva. Glad you're not hurt.
apetal
its raining nicely here... i was getting off the bus, so i didnt SEE it happen, but i heard a HUGE smash...and as the bus drove off, i saw the front car flying into the intersection. they were in a left-turn lane with a red light, so im guessing the rear car didnt notice the red light (or the stopped car, for that matter)
thnx for both those clues
oh Eva!
anyone hurt Eva?
I've been lurking and pilfering clues.... Scuba, I went to ITT, but not in your class
not sure, the person who got hit didnt get out of the car + the rear end was badly smashed...but people were already helping + on the phone by the time i could cross the street, so there wasnt anything for me to do... there are police cars + i think an ambulance there now...
hope no one is too badly injured, EvaN.
that's horrible Eva
i hope so too!
hope everything goes well for those people.
today, i bet the rain caused it; the roads are slippery.
on a lighter note, Niamh -- where did you find your icon? i LOVE it!
Eva, I pilfered that too!! I think from here?? feel free to do the same!
Thanks!
antra

Me, too.
thanks vic

My pleasure, harpjane. Fun to be helpful without doing a thing!
thnx Dan
they specify the grows best in..but i don't pay attention to it and if they thrive they do and if not ..i didn't lose much lol
HI Harp just updated my icon to be a clue
I do the end of season sales, too. I always think I don't need anything else... and then I always find that actually I really do!
lol i buy wether i do or not lol
a sale is a sale to me
i find room
yw phan
But some of the catalogues will refund or replace no matter what, so that can end up being a better deal.
oh i go to garden centers to find the deals
my neighor hated me because no matter where i put em they would grow lol
Goodness, Ema! What word are you?
I'd love a neighbor with a gorgeous garden!
po9 ema? is that you?
ca 7 36
I think you could be po9 also?
i tried doing a buch of weird but pretty looking tulips but dang squirrels (luv em but..) dug em all up in a matter of a day ..i'm sure someone else is enjoying my tulips
Ah! =) And he might even have a co7/32 under there!
good afternoon babble buds! guess what word i am!

It's chipmunks here, and I don't love them a bit! lol

Hello, lilmonkey. Hello, stidmama.
heyy stid hi
hi, stid!
oh joanne.... from one gardener to another *BIG HUG*
hello seain!

Yes you did... but I've felt the same. I was ready to invest in a coyote to hunt them down.

dcseain, is your icon a clue for an7 ???
i have a squirell that likes to sunbathe in the bird house
an8 is my icon
it is quite cute
But there's nothing to be done. It's no more tulips for Vicuna. =(
how squirrel-like of it, joanne
Hello all. We are being blanketed with snow and ice. Gonna babble while awaiting my husband's return from work.
hmmmm... OK *still looking*
but the tulips ..i payed good money for them
lol dc ty
so NUT and I were sorta talking the other evening. Would you babblers like to be interviewed by me in babblecasts? Virtual interviews... I would send a set of questions and you could answer them -- and ask some of your own if you like.
Well, if you're going to lose the tulips, at least you get some cuteness in return.
OK got it :)
hello musicmom! snow and ice? AGAIN??? *shaking head in disbelief*
that sounds fun, stid
oh, is the whole OH valley getting snow? A friend in Lexington, KY complained of that today, too.
huh not at the moment tho
Hey stid - I don't know if anyone wants to hear what I have to say, but I would do that.
i only seen red
i'd be up for that, stid
i'd love to hear an interview with evanonut :)
oooh, stidmama, I see stidkid is doing block prints! Yay!
YES DC - Columbus and Cincy are getting hit hard right now. We're in the SE and it is headed our way.
cool! IF you are interested, then please send me an email my name (at) yahoo.com I will set up the list and we will do this!
Queen of the Night is one of my favourite tulip varieties
20 to 25 cent.. of snow coming here hehe

yes, both of them, Vi -- AND Mother. They were very successful. I will scan them in as soon as I finish the grid -- Tom kept forgetting all week.
for our gardens of course
Yep stid. Woke up to Hannah having a horrible fever. Had to stay home, Sarah got sent home early due to weather, Hannah puked on the couch. Grannyg had to cancel her trip here today.
My favorite for looks are the red and yellow Rembrandt varieties. My favorites for growing are the species varieties that are perennial.
it's raining here today, which is welcome; the river is still lowish, i checked it out at the lower falls on Monday.
It has been a terrible horrible no good very bad day
I'd love to see them, stidmama.
Ah! MM...no referencing awesome children's books in chat as it makes me want to read them :)
{{{{musicmom}}} I am so sorry that you have sick kids AND grannyg can't come visit (my kids are healthy, does she want to come here?)
Oh dear, musicmom. No joy for you.
so sorry to hear, music *passes some chocolate and wine, unless you'd rather tea, tea does so help*
I've been very happy to have a large grid though. thanks for the hug.

LOL
i am a good baker. do you like desserts?
lol didn't think so
Sangria is what is needed here...fruit is good

I love desserts!
is that a trick question TO?
good idea Uniquity! I have TWO books I purchased for myself (but share with selected kids) Fancy Nancy and Fancy Nancy and the puppy (books currently on loan)
po + camping house + past tense of eat
I've never read those stid.
does red wine + white wine = pink wine?
I love Graeme Base as well
did i get that clue yet please?
*passes clue by for to JC* ROFL
My great niece who is 4, loves Fancy Nancy
i have a lovely rose from rioja, which is a brilliant red, like cinnamon candy, and semi-dry
I don't tink I've heard of them...I will have to look into it. I have a treasury of Munsch and a treasury of seuss, as well as Winie the Pooh
excuse me you guys are ignoring me I want to be your friend
oh musicmom, if either of your daughters (or you) have ever been "princess" types with pink and ooh-la-la personalities... the books are tres chic!

plural for the 10
hi jc28 how are you??
joanne, it's Remy Martin
Jc, or what do you need a clue? Are you familiar with Lickety's List - link top of centre column below the grid?
Jc, we give clues to specific requests. What do you need?
WHOOO Joanne - I usually buy the cheap stuff.
to5/12?
i was thinking that
I am good
what is it tho??
the F key has been sticking on the keyboard lately :/
something with J
good jc
you new??
to5 = not bottom 4th vowel and plural
LOL Uniquity -- sounds like me when I was a child! (the room being lived in by pigs...)
I'm thinking TO
to 5,10 is the final results of addition
that's it peri
not bottom plus spaghetti from a can, TO
I thought someone else might identify
kind of i just have not played in a while
there is a JE 4 that is a woman's name, when you plural it for the JE 5 it's what a lot of people wear with t-shirts
Jumps up and down, waves, makes babble eyes at the crowd, HI ALL
Uni - that would be both of my children

hi, muse
nice to have you back Jc
hey muse!
to - did you see peri's clue
chat is VERY fast and busy today!
72 temp were you on this morning
hi there muse
I was a hopeless child. Much too caught up in books and imagination to do anything as mundane as clean
that would definitely be my Hannah
ty!
every time we send her to clean - she either starts reading or engages in imaginary play with the mess
trying to get down to 100 before using the list, but slowing down considerably
Sounds like you got a good girl then, Musicmom! :D
Owl did you get it
ok, going home now. bbl happy babbling all

She is - but messy

my son loved Eric Carle in kindergarten, Frog and Toad series in 1st grade, and Boxcar Children in 3rd.
I am not trying to pretend I have outgrown it! My apt. gets a once over every once in a while, but really, I am the same
does anyone have the second te 6/21 7/32 combo?
Love Eric Carle too.
I remember one of my nieces getting a kick out of the Amelia Bedelia stories.
oops. I said a wurd and mispelled it to make a different word. *sigh* I'll go eat chocolate in the penalty box
those are fun - especially for kids who get the puns muse

PO 9: a powerful medicine (or smell) is called PO 6/21 -- add past tense of what you do with food for the 9/60, then plural for the 10
later peri
po 9 sounds like a man made covering for food wrappers but minus an h

omg problem was i was looking at wrong po
stid i am ten to

byee stid
po8, after the po10 ???
Hello all. Just chillin' out and getting some words before I head home. (Doggie doesn't appreciate me spending time at computer when I'm home.)
please do not encourage this jc! this person has been here before and is full of it.
jc, part of being a well-ajusted, functional adult is not forgetting about wonder and mystery and excitement and joy in the process of growing up
is stid ten or not how old is she
lil monkey - adverb form
irrelevant, Jc
i have the po9 and 10... it's the 8 i need
what dose irrelevant mean
po8 is the adverb form of po6
adverb of same root word, monkey
irrelevant means it doesn't really matter at all, jc
is something wrong with stid did she leave because of me
OK got it... sorry i was going on a BUM clue given to me by my BF
TY dcseain and gwenski
and EmaM
sorry guys i have to go
no, it's atime of day she has things to do, jc.
njoy, jc

why dose the profile say she is ten
ask your mom, jc
same reason mine says I'm seven
because it makes her happy, jc :)
and just cause i'm the age i am, it doesn't mean i feel that way in my heart :)
why tell me
ahh i feell 25 ...uhh most days
my mom dose not know i am talking to you guys
no problem jc we are not saying anything u can't hear
well she should be aware of who you talk to.
bye
Then maybe you shouldn't be!

last le 5 actress tia or sierra le***
I don't even know if I've ever had polenta... or even if I know what it is... I just keep seeing it on the grid
autumn -- "whenever" is perfectly fine. I am enjoying the anticipation! :-D
polenta is cornmeal mush, allowed to cool so it solidifies, then sliced and cooked like sausage or pancakes.
whee! thanks ndanlia!
yayyyyy firewords!!!
I like mine fried, with maple syrup...
i had to go google that, i'm so dense
thanks JBV! fishy enough...

wow autumn, that sounds sinful almost!
ut o - i don't have an OS
Stid - did you check the photo of the sleepers on FB? (or did I already ask you that?)
go nance go! it's a tough slog for a little bit mid-way through, then things will start to fall in place again.
goooo nance! *hauls out the pom poms*
the first ol 5 is plural of ol 4 (shortening for cooking)
no -- you didn't ask!
where do I look?
;p;
second is on 5/10 - the beginning
in my photo album
hey - Nance, are you watching qualifying?
looking now, autumn! *momentarily distracted*
i'm not - i don't have a TV in my office - will you be here for a while?
I am going to 'start' this grid any minute now....yeah, that's it...any minute
LOL
hello everyone, a mere 221 left :)
* totally distracted by shining things going fast *
i believe Mikey will qualify near the end. If you are still here, would u please keep me informed?
ooh, make that 220
Hi Mom
LOL are those MONSTER TRUCKS on the jammies??? *rolling on floor, laughing uncontrollably*

hey mom
Hi Autumn and Nance
(shamefully admits yes, monster trucks)
only two OS words, I have the second... *pitiful look* hi mom!
autumn - do u mind keeping me postedL?
Hi Stid
I LOVE THEM! (that's a lot of yardage needed for a 6'3" fella)
i only have 1 OS so far. the one that's in your ear
24 have qualified now (Gordon is sitting po4/5 right now; JR's 2nd, Truex 3rd)
thant was the one I needed, woceht! thanks! the other I have if you want a clue
how are the toyotas doing?
first os is os 6/18 - relating to bone - o + synonym for pilfer
When I first logged on this morning and saw 329 words my reaction was NO WAY! However, I found later that in fact some of the words were easy, but I have had enough now. I got to 185, which isn't too bad.
that is a good number ExWren
hello and sweet dreams, dear wren! see you tomorrow maybe?
indeed it is, exwren!
hm... i'll think on it a bit more but thanks for the offer.
hi all
second os 6/18 is a person who handles horses
stid, os in ear????
the other OS 6 is a word for a person who wrangles horses
Hi Tea and Pam Good night ExWren, pleasant dreams
haha. i don't know that one, then. probably have to monkey it.
thanks, jbv and stid
i have 146 - 185 is great - u leaving us now?
os + letter sounds like what the english and chinese drink + last three letters of the "horn-like" things on a deer
hey tea
hey pam
hi, nance!
thank you, Stid
new word for me, that
but i might have guessed, with the ending
autumn - who is your favorite driver?

Nance - 24, 8, 1, 99, 48, 18, 07, 29, 9, 12, 6, 31,19, 42,15,11, 40, 25, 7, 66, 38, 77, 70, 17, 5, 28
Hello gang!
hi, scrabs!
Hi Scrabbler, how have you been. It has been ages since I have "seen" you.
hello scrabbler! (((((many hugs))))) how is (trying to remember which one) your eldest nephew? and Mary?
thanks sweets
I probably won't be babbling tomorrow, My choir is singing in a concert at Stevenage, probably about 1 1/2 hours drive, and will have to leave here by about 1.15pm
hey scrabbler
hi scrabbler
92 to go.....argh, this is a marathon grid.
Hey green bunny :)
autumn - who is your favorite?
Peter is doing well and will see a plastic surgeon next week to discuss removal of the cyst. Mary's tumor is tiny now--just 4x3mm!
lol @ green bunny
have a good time and a safe trip, ExWren
hey janie
okay - totally ignoring chat now.... Nance - JR, then Mikey, then Hornish (new this year)
what a lovely time you will have wren! well, remember that the U.S. has a time change on Sunday -- it's springtime here (or close enough)!
where are you going exwren?
Green bunny is hoping her migraine disappears and doesn't ruin the weekend.
right now?
Who is Peter? And, woo hoo for Mary, scrabs!
GOOD NEWS!!! oh scrabbler, I am very happy to hear this for both of them. *dancing around*
oops *backs down on the dancing so as to not make migraine worse*
autumn - right now?
Peter is my eldest nephew--20 yrs old--hospitalized last wk x 4 days with a facial and periorbital cellulitis.
wonderful new, Scrabbler and I hope your migraine gets better
yoooooooo hoooooooooooooo
periorbital= next to the eye?
Around the eye
nrn
Oh, that's right, sorry I forgot, scrabs!
may I have the PO 6/21 after the 8/55? I have the corn po** 4/5
So, there is a cyst that caused the cellulitis? Been there... but not about the eye...
oops - that's 24, 88, 1, 99 - Nance. I will let you know when Mikey's turn comes up.
Scrabbler -- we finally got three stids up at white pass today... Tom took the boys for the day!
It spread up to and around his eye, even crossed over his nasal bridge.
8/25: _ _ _ _ vaulters, plus r, plural
That is so scary... IV antibiotics?
What is White Pass?
erm. that po6 took me awhile too. it rhymes with what you put your water in to bring out of the house with you
Okay, I meant the 6 . . .
white pass is the southernmost ski area in washington state http://www.skiwhitepass.com/conditions /index.html
I watched the car leave from this link! ;-)
Yes, IV antibiotics. I was worried about MRSA, but it behaved more like a Strep skin/tissue infection---very inflamed.
thanks woceht -- after I typed my request I realized that tehre are two po 8/55! LOL
woceht . . . where are you from . . . and is it illegal to flat ask you what that thing is that you put water in to carry it out?
so I sorta need the second po 8/55
Sorry nance, went away for a minute, I am singing in Stevenage, which is north of London. I live about 50 miles west of London in Hampshire
but that was a great clue, for the other po 6/21 !
haha. erm. i don't know. i'm from singapore, but i think that clue applies everywhere
Is it still swollen and hot? That was my experience. Except that the cyst ruptured both externally and internally... I was a Mess, but am so glad it was on my shoulder and not face...
woceht--your name, spelled backwards, is "thecow"
tmcs... what a baby drinks milk from when mother is not available ... bo****
the second po8 is the same root as the words above it
but start with a p
heh. i was wondering how long it would take babblers to notice that.
okay, thanks woceht! *looking*
MOO! *grin*
Pam, it improved dramatically with IV antibiotics and now is marble sized, except for 2 "tails" heading up to lower eyelid
GOT IT!!!!
coool. :)
Hey, woceht, we are word freaks!
Glad the improvement was so great, scrabs!!!!! When is surgery?
And, is Mary getting stronger?
mooo... i think i need a break from this. :p
<- is all moooooed out.
hurry back, Woceht
I did not see MAry this week as I took Bunny Callie to the vet on Wednesday---lower spine and hip arthritis.
okay, so now I am really struggling with the 7th po 6/21 from the bottom of that section. It comes after po 4/5 that looks like the large puddles that ducks and frogs live in, which is right after the first po 8/55
poor callie...
oh -- is callie going to be okay? do they have stuff like methotrxate for bunnies?
ok - i'm back - autumn - u still here?
Stid, I am trying to decipher your request, LOL!
I am missing that op6/21 as well.
I mean po6/21
fiddlesticks. well, thanks for looking!
erm. i monkeyed that one too. it's the same 4 letters as the po4 above
Callie got started on meloxicam, a COX-2 inhibitor, similar to Celebrex, Vioxx, etc
do you have po 6/21 - a vegetable used for french fries?
hi, everyone!
or po 6/21 - powerful
yes, have that one JBV
Hi natasha
Hi Natasha
hey natasha! where have you been hiding?
or po 6/21 - rhymes with baby bo****
Hey Nance - Mikey's up
stid, i THINK the po you are missing is the one with one consanant different from the "powerful" one
brb again
Hello again. Sorry for just disappearing! 3 things happened all at once - daughter came home from a 60th birthday party, 2 police helicopters appeared (and still are virtually over the house) - nothing to do with daughter, btw! and my computer started acting strangely and so I gave it a full health check, and checking out over 100,000 sites that might be 'malignant' takes time. PHew! Anyway, I'm back for my final 8 words.
change cross letter to hump letter
Hi Jacula
{{LilMonkey}} hi
yep! that's it, monkey!!! *hugs*
wow. go jacula.
So are the police helicopters there to track you?
your daughter is 60???? (woulda never guessed)
whew is right, Jac
yay stid! hugs to MOM
i wonder if i'm going to come close to finishing this one
heh, stid. i thought the exact same thing
that was my last P word... down to 19
i have 85 to go... starting to fizzle out
Hope not, stid! Being so close to the motorway network we often get police and air ambulance hovering above.
back again - my driver just qualified but he's not in the rac yet
Wait, wait, I need to figure out that po8.....
woot. go stid! :)
There are 3 cross ltrs--change to 2nd or 3rd?
The helicopters make such a racket when they're right over you. Hope they don't wake Other Half up - he's got work tomorrow.
chante the second one, scrabbler, after the O
ok - i put the radio broadcast of qualifying on
na 8? the only one that i can find is the little italian dictator and babble won't take that one.. thanks
pull for Mikey for me please
odd. babble took the italian dictator from me.
joey - you might be trying to put a 2nd 'a' where you need an 'o', re na8.
joey -- that's the one you need, check your spelling
unless we are thinking of different ones...
well,maybe if I spelled it right - thanks guys
just realized i'm missing the po 6/21 after the setting sun and the one that sounds like small bodies of water
an7,36 ???
wasn't he french, joey? 8-)
I'm diving back in to locate my 1 missing 'p' and 7 't' words.
he was corsican, pam...
oh, right, thanks and sorry...
go Jac go!
don't have an 7/36 - sorry monkey
okay, down to three...
an 7/36 looks like ac 7/40 - change the c to n
not a problem, but you made me think pam.
two 6s and a 7...
Stupid PO words are done, now on to the stupid PE words. Yep, I love this word game.
one an 7 is just like the ac 7 with the different second letter
i hope michael waltrip makes it - i hate watching the race when he's not in it - he's a 3-car team ownr
He was trained in France, and became a General in France, so he's often thought of as French, Pam.
TY! to joey
go cousin go! *offers cup of warm tea*
and JBV
thanks, jac.. and he subjugated the french....
yw, glad to help. i get enough
I have been drinking hot tea for a few hrs and running to the bathroom frequently.
Pam - There was a song about him, 'Boney Was A Warrior'. Know it?
vaguely, jac,
anyone have that po 6/21 - it's after the setting sun (stereo com******) and a po 4
dale, jr. is 2nd right now - jeff gordon is 1st
yes - it's a large picture
Think bridge word
sorry, nance - the large picture is further down the list
i who throws items
I'd post the words, Pam, but I need to check no grid words in them. Maybe after I've finished the grid.
gpt that 6/21
?
Well, I think of bridge---po + I wa** to finish th* PE word*.
the only bridge word I can think of has two oo's together, a floating bridge - can you reclue please?
*1
*got
erm. jbc i think you're looking for different spellings of the same word that refer to a part of the brain near the medulla
ah! got it Scrabbler, ty!
The snowplow is roaring by.........GRRRRRRR
thanks woceht, had the first one, just got the second
are you getting a lot of snow, scrabbler?
Scrabbs - thanks for the po6. Don't know how I missed that!
they have only cleared our street once today. We are under a blizzard warning here
Big winter storm warning--started at noon and continues til Sunday at 8AM---6-12 inches and "blizzard-like" conditions.
We're supposed to be having bad weather all weekend and then a major storm with 80mph winds on Monday.:((
It has snowed most of today.
ooh, ouch. stay safe.
OK i'm not getting the es6,18... any clues?

I've checked all the drains are clear. You all know my fear of flooding.
Wow---that is a lot for you Kentucky folks!
and here I am grumbling about rain...
i prefer snow...
oh crap, never mind... send all fish my way!
yeeks. i think the cold weather is on its way here. it's supposed to drop to freezing again over the weekend.
it is a lot. We have had 15.1 inches the entire winter
I need help with the first pe7--I have the pe4 root and the pe6-7 combo.
I can't believe I have all 58 P words! thanks for the help, now for 41 more words!
we haven't had much snow here this year. I gather we're in a micro-climate and get mostly rain when others get snow
es6.18, monkey.... selling property you are in re4 es6.18. The grounds of a Lord's home may be his es6.18...
well. I hope all are safe, warm, and dry!
people who throw rocks
pe 7/32
we will not be going out, that is for sure.
pe 7 - add past tense of eat to pe 4/5
thanks Nance
The pe7 before that is the one I need, nance.

thans Jacula...
TY, JBV--I tried many endings but not that one. TY!
(For those who want them.):D
OMG! that's so cool Jacula !
great fish, jac!
cute, jacula :) does that mean you are done?
Jacula, just bake those up, cook some spuds and corn, and there is my dinner.
Okay, Scrabbs. LOL
YAY - Michael Waltrip made it into the race - hiip hip horayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
><((((*>';
No, woceht. I was giving fish to those that want them.
I made some salmon croquettes and Manhattan Clam Chowder for supper
OK that's the best imitation i could muster LOL
I've still got 7 't' words to find!
Yummy, Mom. I ate a bag of popcorn while watching Jeopardy, but I didn't have actual dinner.
popcorn sounds good
i didn't either, scrabs. Think I'll cut a chunk f cheese...
I made mac and cheese from scratch and stewed tomatoes....mmmmm. comfort food.
i am a happy camper now - LOL
The helicopters seem to have gone now. Since there were 2 of them, I guess they were both air ambulance waiting for the motorway to be clear for them to land. That's not good because it means there's been a big accident out there.
love mac n cheese
oh, i'll say, nat!
I hope they were on hand just in case, Jacula
I am with you there, mom
sorry all, needed to get the brownies in the oven...
I hope so, too, Mom, since it's often 20 mins or more before they can land.
sounds yummy, Stid.
down to two now
ONE!
Brownies?! I am SO craving brownies, chocolate ice cream, chocolate chip cookies.....any theme detected?
GO GO Stid!!
brownieeeessssss
**holds breath waiting for Stid to finish**
I think they'll be fine. from a box, but some days, it has to be the thought (and the choclate) that counts
go stid!
anyone else in here have a favorite NASCAR driver?
now you've tempted me to go make some.
since i seem to have given up on this grid
P's are pounded! Doing the happy dance. 71 to go.
Stid - I do know what you mean by Brownies, but since, here in UK, our little Girl Guides are Brownies, I have this vision of you stuffing a 'sixer' (6 little girls) into your oven. LOL
I would have preferred peri's eggless "cheesecake" but didn't have the energy.
Undercooked brownies rock!
ok, now I have to go get some ice cream. it's a dairy day for me, I guess.
yes, we have that kind of brownies here too! LOL
i made brownies twice this week - they were milk chocolate chunk & were they ever grrrrrrrrrrrrrrreat
brb
woo-hoo1 scrabbler! *don't dance too hard, the bloodflow is bad for migraines*
kk
*grin* pam'
Jac, I was a brownie when I was little.
pam's gone to find chocolate...
alright, now that my driver is in the race, let me see if i can locate any words
what are you now Natasha? German Chocolate Cake?
Nat - I hope no one took a bite out of you! Keep away from Scrabbler! LOL
LOL!
chocolate...?
natasha, did you sell those evil cookies? i finally had some last week after hearing about htem all this time
Oh, man, nance! I rarely have brownie mix or ice cream here because I hallucinate and hear a voice, "Make brownies and eat them." And from the freezer, "Eat me."
**turning blue waiting for Stid to finish and she is talking food** :)
sorry Mom I am looking for the last ST 7, the one before the secretary's book
LOL, Mom. That reminds me, I've still got 7 words to locate.
lol - if you haven't every tried the milk chocolate chunk, you must - they are out of this world
nope, brownies didn't sell cookies. You had to "fly up" to girl scouts to do that. I quit--told my mom that they only wanted to make me conform!
omg, stid - I am looking for that very word right now
good for you Natasha! (says the girlscout who couldn't sell cookies to her own mother...)
stid - add New England in short form to your 'star' word before it.
I was a Brownie and then a Girl Scout. I was Patrol Leader in 6th grade---a proud, self-confident time. In fact, I think my self-confidence peaked in 6th grade.
lol. you sound like my roommate, about conforming.
i can't recall if they were betty crocker or pillsbury - they were the kind that required either and 8x8 or 9x9 pan
the other brand requires a 13x9
got it, thanks Jacula!
Pillsbury is the 13x9
oh scrabbler... (((hugs))) *sending lots of self-confidence to much-admired cousin*
You use mixes to make Brownies?? *Faints in horror.*
y/w, JBV.
brb
*Feebly recovers enough to hug Scrabbs.*
have to some days, Jac -- but the lovely cauliflower soup is from scratch -- even roasted the cumin seeds myself before grinding them with mortar/pestle
hello peoples
kk natasha
Good for you, stid!
**picks Jacula up**
ooh! FIREWORDES!!!!!!
yes i do jacula - sorry to disappoint
**exhales, was feeling faint**
lol
YAY stid!!!
phew, about time Stid. Congratulations:)
But, being the oldest kids in the elementary school as 6th graders, and before adolescence---life was different then.
B*gger! That stid woman's done her distracting act again and finished before ME!
congrats stid
the last ST 7/28 is the st 5/10 that precedes, plus first to letters of opposite of far....
Yahooo Stid!
*BIG SMILE at Jac, bows to adoring fans*
but please try these milk chocolate chunk brownies - they taste like homemade chocolate [oe
*pie
*Hands Mom a paper bag to breathe gently in and out of.*
mmmm... thanks nance!
congrats, Stid!
lol
woot. thanks stid, i didn't have that one.
And Jacula--when the brownie fix is needed, there is no time to bake from scratch---it is an emergency situation.
thanks Jacula
LOL, Scrabbs.
I like pie ..
it's only 8:42 pm & my hubby is snoring up a storm
THAT, scrabbler, is when I reach for the lovely european chocolates I have stashed in the pantry... (as I did when I got home today)
Is the 2nd OS word related to the first?
1:43am here.
TOR!!!!
Hi torgone!!
Hi Torgone
Hi, tor.
yes, that's the ticket, i made it from a box cause if was an emergency - LOL
how you been Tor? is it spring in San Diego yet?
Hi kids ..
drats. all this talk of yummy sweet things. and i can't even bake anything because i'm out of butter.
Going to go and find my last 7 now so I can be silly (and clue, too).
hey torgone
may i have a clue for the first pa5 & 6 ???
oh woceht... I know the feeling! can't you substitute oil or applesauce? (it's not AS scrumptious, but...)
It's just now starting to act like spring ..Getting a little warmer ..
I made pumpkin pancakes last night for dinner, using Pillsbury's Quick Bread mix. I will do it again tomorrow AM!
Not from me, monkey! I'm hell bent on finishing. LOL
pa 5: that long-winded poem about a person, monkey -- pa + "long time" word
and plural of course
oil just sounds...icky. i've never tried that before. hm...
TY stidster *sticks tongue out at Jacula*
Anyone like yams (sweet po6/21 plural)? I have 3 that need using in my veg drawer.
thanks Stid
you have to make some adjustments, less oil than butter by volume, of course
love yams
yes, jacula--I will slice them up and roast them with a sprinkling of olive oil.
make sweet po6 pie, Jac!
3 yams winging their way over the ocean to Mom...
substitute oil with applesauce in brownies?
love yams, but not sweet po6. isn't there a difference?
I hate the things! Not keen on sweet stuff.
Put on a baseball mitt, Mom, and catch those yams.
thanks Jacula, will mash them and add a stick of butter and brown sugar and top with marshmallows and bake
no, nance. butter with oil or applesauce
yams are too stringy for me
nance, if they're stringy, you're cooking them wrong.
yes, one can do that easily (substitute applesauce for oil in brownies)
Really diving now.... *holds no4. SPLASH!*
I put yams through the blender sometimes.... that takes care of strings!
substitute peanut butter for oil or butter in baking recipes
i only have one tile square blued-out - the O 1/1 - LOL
autumn?
that would be a good touch in chocolate recipes! one for one, autumn?
there are two st 6/18's at the end of the list - I have the one that means taken - need a clue for the other one, please?
go nance go!
Nance, I have 2 O's and the Y
did u c that mikey made it?
You people are tempting me! I may just have to drive through 10 miles of snow-covered roads to go buy brownie mix!
pretty much, a little more when recipes call for oil, even measure for butter.
okie dokie, I must get the load of laundry into the dryer and turn on some lights so the house looks lived in when the fellows arrive... back when I can!
Help with 2nd os6 please?
air mailing a brownie mix to Scrabbler
well. mom, you are doing better than i am - ut o - only a little more than 4 hours to go
bye bye Stid
os6 - either horse wrangler, or bony
sorry Nance, got busy with the phone and the Trucks are now on the track.
bye stid - sleep tight
seeya stid
**giggling** When I make brownies I eat a lot of the mix from the bowl!
bye stid
mikey made it - yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Horse wrangler??
Scrabbler, I do that with cake
eeks. the only thing keeping me from doing that is the thought of raw egg in the mix
hi, again
Chocolate chip cookies are my downfall for batter
yes, horse wrangler. i learnt that one today!
Have no worries, woceht--after all these years of eating cake batter, cookie dough and brownie batter I have never become ill.
me either and I have been eating batter for at least 45 years
hey again pan
lopam
that was always the treat, to lick the beaters and the bowl
lol pam
Hi again, Pam
i haven't been able to spell all day
Oh, the things I ate when PMS took over!
os6 os + man***piece + hook letter(?)
P-A-M--it is easy to spell but maybe not to type.
since i went thru the dreaded menopause, i don't crave chocolate any more
I give up ....
see everyone tomorrow. Hugs to all of you
does anyone have the st 6/18 (before the traffic sign)???
Good night, Mom! We can share info about our snowstorms tomorrow.
night mon - sleep tight
mm... i guess. i've certainly put raw eggs in dessert before, and no one's ever gotten sick. the trick is not to think about it... ;)
I look forward to it, Scrabbler. Pleasant dreams
sweet dreams, mom
pleasant dreams, Nance
Rhymes with st6 before it---ends with opp of off
thanks Woceht, you also

Down to 2 now... BB shortly....
just made up another one, but this time it was a po 4/7 - yay for me - lol
bye jacula - great work
Haven't gone, Nance. LOL. It's a mixture of loo and laundry taking me away. Well, not truly a mix... peeing on the laundry would not be good!
lol l- silly jacula
well then i'm glad u r staying
*grins at nance.*
lolol
"grins back atcha"
bbl--have to go fight with Verizon....
*giggles with Pam*
*Rolls up sleeves. Right! Let's nail these last 2 words!*
61 to go and I am tired!
does anyone have a clue for the te 6/21 and 7/32 after the bluish color
do any of you like "country living" magazine?
I'm a little t6, short and stout.....

te6 is what you make the famous British hot drink in, and plural for the 7
**doing silly kid dance + song routine**
thank you danf
*clapping for Scrabblers singing and dancing* Bravo! Bravo!

*Standing Ovation for Scrabblr!!!*

Oh Gawd! I'm missing a t5.

Encore! Encore!

Hi everyone!

Got it! FIREWORKS!:-)
Hi dawger
Hi dawg!
Hi Une
whooo hoooo Jac
congrats, jac!!
thx uneaixoise - i must be missing a few - lol
Yahooo Jacula!
hey lb

Thanks.lbd.
yay jacula
Scrabbs, une, nance.
ne5/12 please?
Hi Unea, Hi Scrabs, Hi Dan, Hi Nance
It's been a long day! LOL
i feel like singing, "To dream the impossible dream." when it comes to this grid - lol
ne + not bottom
Yes, and tomorrow's grid will probably have 72 words and we'll be wishing for more!
Scrabbs - no + not bottom.
ne, rather.
TY, Une!
yw :-)
i hate the grids w/few words - grrrrrrrrrrrrr
I like big grids on Sundays.
...and Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays...
LOL
Nah, I think tomorrow's will be around 200
I like big grids on my days off.
Sometimes grids with only about 72 words are tougher than the 300+ ones.
I got more than 100 words!! First time ever!!!
Well done, tmcs.
good for you tmcs
Silly Scrabbler was missing the Hawaiian goose! N's are done. 56 to go.
SOMETIMES - ALL THE TIME - at least for me
Go go tmcs!!
go Scrabs!
so was silly nancy
LOL
thank you scrabbler
I'll nip off and gird my loins, Scrabbs, and then I'm here to clue for you.
that sounds complicated jacula
Don't hurt yourself, jacula!
if i didn't have it completely dark in here, i would begin searching through the dictionary - LL
LOL, Scrabbs!
the LY words are not seeming obvious--should they?
Only 'girding' them gently.
LL must = LOL lol
My wine glass is fully 'girded' now...
Yes, please be gentle, Jacula.
LY at the end?
i don't think the ly words are common. at least not to me
A clue please, dawger?
scrabbler? should i concentrate using the LYs at the endi
ly + double cross + vowel, two vowels for the 6...latin plural ending
?
ly is a on the underside of your tongue, is also the Spanish Fly (sex aid) beetle.
apparently the ly is the long worm like cartiledge in a dog's tongue! eeeewwwww
Cartilage, Scrabbs.
First you gird your loins, now you are discussing sex aiding beetles-----LOL, Jacula!
Ty for the LY clue, dawger.
ut o - the conversation suddenly took a turn towards sex - lol - just kidding
LOL, indeed Scrabbs. It's a mystery tour at times, this chatlog, isn't it?
**Wondering how to warn Paul about impending aerobic activities**
yw scrabs
baby girl pup keeps begging me to go to bed - i'm not but her daddy is already there - lol
LOL, Scrabbs. He did his 'workout'earlier. He's sleeping now.;-)
But were you involved in that workout, Jacula?
Might have been, Scrabbs... not telling!
gosh - i finally found an easy pe 5/16
Haha, Jacula!
But it was in the kitchen and you know I'm almost always in there, if I'm not in here.;-)
ha ha Nance. My girl tells me when it's 8:55 each week night but doesn't bother me until 9:30 on the weekends
Oh, dear, Jacula!!
Ahem! Anyone still need clues?
Yes, the last le5? And the la7?
hey Jac - 250 of them?
the way it's looking for me, i will be in here until the ending bell ringie dingies - lol
Oh dear, Scrabbs? You not tried 'cooking' on the kitchen table? See Jamie At Home TV series - he's always at it!
scrabs, sierra le***
Silly word, dawger--TY!
la7 is baby clothes
la7 is what my icon is clue for.
I have never been "cooked", Jacula. LOL
Aha, dawger--TY!
ewwwwwwww - i just found a gross sn 4/4 word
You should try it some time, Scrabbs. When the time is right.xx
I see now, Jacula.
Probably another lifetime, Jacula.
i must be tired - all i keep finding are words that gross me out - lol
If everyone's now got the la7 (baby clothes set) word, I'll change to a pic of my daughter and her b/f on their way out to a 60th birthday party earlier.
E words now! et6?
e + bird claw
good clue Unea
TY, Une--I have seen that here before.
et6 = e + eagle's claw. 7/28 = plural.
thanks uneaixoise
Aw, Scrabbs, don't give up hope re becoming 'a cook'.
Nipping off to change icon pic.
thanks for the hint to look more carefully at your icon photo, jac!
I have higher purposes this life, so I am OK.
Is en7 related to en4?
can I have some help with the last te 6/21, 7/32 please?
what is an eagles claw?
no, scrabs, en7 is to form an alliance or understanding
oops - i got the boot out of here again & this time it was a bit longer than the other times - i almost freaked thinking i may have lost all my words - no harm, no foul tho
this is andrees grandughter
no, scrabbler, en 7 is a french word meaning agreement after a war
te + circle + frying pa4
te+ not closed, change last vowel to first vowel, then plural
TY, JBV
Hi andree's granddaughter
te + circle + pa4/5
thanks, scrabbler, and lb!
And TY, dawger--I had missed your clue when telling my monkey to give it up.
Hi Andree's granddaughter!
Scrabbs - nothing is higher (nearer to heaven than cooking the perfect mix). ;)
np, scrabs
My new pic is up. F5 (refresh).
Takes ages to refresh on big grids. Grr.
Haha, Jacula----I will see what evolves.
35 left but now I just looked at the list of Co words---waaaaahhh.
go scrabs! you can do it!
there are only 28 co words
Oh, oh:(( Double windows opening when I click on a profile in here, mine in last instance, is happening again. Pc's still not acting quite right.
only 28 co words? is that all? lol
Last co7 please?
yay - my favorite drink is on the grid
NM--put it in front of a st5!
Last co7 sounds a bit like bird of prey, a small one, that starts with ke.
same first four as others, + are you ***ated to Stid?
how do u spell realty?
like that
co7 = 'price' + 1st 3 letters of the one in your family.
just like that nance
It was the 2nd last co7 I needed, sorry.
Haha, nance, just the way you typed it,......................LOL
Like re6/24, I guess, nance.
o - sorry - i must have gotten that word 10 hours ago - lol - PB i go
Nance, are you thinking of re**ity?
co + USa has about 52 of them?
only 50 jac
"about" ??
24 to go!! I am on the CA words.
Oh, okay, lbd - I thought they'd expanded more widely. LOL
Puerto rico, isn't one, but it gets all the benefits of one. and DC isn't one either.
Erda - how would I know? I'm in UK. I know as much about USA as you might know about UK.
hey erda
Nice putdown, Jacula. Was it really necessary?
lol jacula - i could have been, but then i would have been wrong cause it's not there
go scrabs!
to tell you the honest truth, i don't have a clue as to what i am thinking - lol
poor nance, i think you've got grid-itis
below the grid, how many letters do y'all have greyed? - a BIG 3 here - lol
ol 6/18 please
i think i have dawger - is there any medication besides xanax for it?
spanish cheer + consumed, rurur
nance, i can tell you sleeping on a dictionary doesn't work.
hey Nance. I have 2 e's and an o. How about you?
now i find out - LOL
thank you
...slamming the door on my way out...
Nance - I love that, what you said... I don't have a clue as to what I am thinking. xxx Join the club!
bye, erda
Why's Erda in a strop? What did I miss?
my brain has just about shut down - need only two more t words - to 7/28 and the last to 5/10 - please help!
2 Es & and O - if you are talking about the greyed letters below the grid? r u?
uh,,, bye, Erda
bye erda
to7.28 sound + french ending for small or female
Well, Nance, now that we have confirmed we both have at least 4 words.....
lbd - sleeping WITH a 'dictionary' works, or so my Other Half tells me. He was dyslexic when he met me. Now he can read and write.
are we talking about the same thing autumn?
last to5.10 SUM when you add all the numbers up you get a to***
thank you, lb! the next one gives me fireworks
os clue either please/
well, duh - fireworks and a great big fish!!!
thank you lb and everyone who clued
ca7-8 combo please?
yahooo JBV!
whoooo hooooo JBV!
o + 'to burgle or rob'.
os+ greenish blue color
Next os is the man who deals with the horses.
okay, back to find the other 234 words.....
ca 7 - a small garment worn over the shoulders - diminutive form
Scrabs, small ca4.6 or ca4.6 + to rent
TY, JBV and dawger, monkeys would have taken hours to find ca7!
Oops! Just got Erda's reply to my usa/uk post. Oh dear! It wasn't meant to be a putdown. It was just a joke.
O never do putdowns unless I think they are deserved. Erda's never given me cause to think I should. Oh dear!
Yes, I interpreted it as a joke.
I just thought we were started a fun discussion. Oh well, never mind. Life's too short and all that.
(quietly points out Erda started it with "about") I didn't see it as a putdown until she mentioned that.
I need 4 CA words--the ones after what a horse does
Now I need the ca6-7 combo after what a horse does
ca7 - plural horse gait.
Yes, I noticed that too, autumn moon
But, that is the problem with chats and emails. Can't get the true feel for what is said.
c+ rhymes with, mickey ...the baseball player (not the mouse)
I might be sensitive, but I thought it was a bit rude as well...but, as has been said, the time had passed. It'll get sorted out
scrabs, truman ca****, In Cold Blood
TY, dawger---C's are done---15 to go, all A's!
ca6 and plural 7 following , like tapers you light in church but with diff. 3rd consonant.
ca6...back of a saddle
Hi Uniquity
I don't take much in the chat as serious.
Uni - I must check back then. I really wasn't meaning to be rude.
Hey Scrabs. Slaving for my last 59, which are al bigger than four letters :(
Oscar Wilde: Life is far too important to be taken seriously.
go Uni!
chat is serious? if so, then I should have been offended at the man-bashing...but chat ISN'T serious
Jac - I think it is just because there are so many countries here with many taking an interest in one another that it came off a bit odd to me. In live talk I would have laughed, I am sure!
(so bash away! I can take it)
Go Uni! I have made rapid progress by shamelessly begging for clues.
(most of it anyway...)
pe 6/21? #1 please just to know where I am
Oh, okay, Uni. And thanks.
oooh, Dan you be the MAN!
Man-bashing? Thought I quashed that the other day by woman bashing, heh
hello, 221 to go
does anyone have an icon clue?
pe6 the 1st is ball in spanish
Hi Dan and jane
Trouble with live chat is that no one knows what kind of day someone else may have had and what they might then be sensitive to/about.
pe+ not hi + brit slang for thanks
Hi Harp
i must have missed the woman bashing Uni...
hi again scrab...darn work interrupted again! right in the middle of the video, too!
It's not hard for a comment to come out of context when you have recieved a bit of news or thought that change your opinion about a thing. Ah, the complexities of people :) It was not much extreme dan, I just put an end to it before it really got going. Bashing stinks.
whoooo hoooooo DAN!
ball in spanish????
hi, dan
Congrats, Dan! 12 to go for me.
and lbd!
congrats, dan
lhey dan
Hi Pam
Welcome back, Pam.
go scrabs!
(breaking my self imposed rule and heading for list)
actually it's the ball used in Jai Lai.
thanks, lbd!
pe6 the 1st is not only a ball in spanish, it is also pe + a bunch + vowel
The list is your friend, Autumn
2 days' ago, I was up on here all night (5th/6th March). That day would have been my 31st wedding anniversary had we not divorced about 12 years ago. So, I was feeling somewhat sensitive about life's horrors that night, even though I do have a lovely new partner in my life now.
thanks, dan!
Permission readily granted, autumn moon!
yw pam
good way to save your sanity, autumn
the list is my BEST friend autumn!
brb, need more tea
darn couriers! brb 2
2nd an6-7 combo?
ok - i'm going to go play "spongebob squarepants" collapse game - it gives me a break & is better than the adult game - let me now if y'aall want to try it
brb
You kid, you!
an6 and 7 are stag's head pieces.
aren't i tho - it allows me to veg
TY, Jacula---toss some fish at me.
nance - I 'NEVER' do that! *Hopes Nance doesn't have access to her games faves file.*
could i get a clue for the no6-7 combination?
No one has commented on my 'divorce' posting. All I can say is that when I asked a divorced friend, about 6 months into the hell, 'How long before I get over it?', she told me (she had remarried 10 years since), 'You won't.. really'. It was true but it set me back!
Well, Jac, I didn't comment because I was dumped 18 months ago, it is still raw at times, and painful
Grief never ends or has closure--you learn how to move on in spite of what loss you endure.

I know, scrabs, but it can be less "raw"
thanks jac

Oh--my--gawd, Chandler Bing!! Scrabbler just finished and she never thunked it would happen.
Ty all for clues!
And, guess what? My migraine disappeared!
Scrabbs - yes, we move on bu, like broken vases, sometimes, something can upset the glued up joins.
je6?
Glad to hear that, Scrabbs.

Harp! Hello. You didn't just say 'hello'. xx
that's a good description jac
of any sort of trauma
whooooo hoooooo SCRABBLER
po 6/21 # 1 please...
i might not have said hello, i'm overwhelmed by the grid
I've been divorced (and married) for 38 years. Once I learned to forgive myself for the failure, it's been a wonderful life.
thanks lbd
plural of the po5.12 above it, ruru
Well done, Scrabbs.
Forgiveness---interesting, Java.
before you can forgive you must truly grieve
Forgiving oneself is the hardest.
java - what you say is true.
sorry I meant PO 6/21 # 2 after the 8
Well, it took a while, but I learned a few things
divorce is forever, death is final...... my first husband died suddenly
Grieving is tough, forgiving the person who hurt you is tough or maybe impossible, but the woman thing, since eve in the Garden of Eden, that is ingrained into our genes, is very hard. In other words, we always blame ourselves, when we really shouldn't.
just an observation.... sorry for interrupting
sloe
Anyway, don't set me off on that track... had too long with daughter in mental hospital for anorexics.....
Exactly, Jac. It took me about 20 years to see that my first was an emotional abuser.
What me and her Dad didn't let them do was start on analysing us. It was far too la4.
solo
is the on5 a common wrod?
oops -sorry!
anyone clue me on the po 6/21 #2 please?
Yes, harp. The on5 of an illness, maybe? (The start)
harp, yes.

hey java
hey
ok - i'm tired of this game - have any ssuggestions of what game to play next?
ruru, a band of nerve fibers in the brain connecting the lobes of the midbrain, medulla, and cerebrum = po6
nance, something mindless.
of course, after this bear of a game - lol
I found literati on a site that had to be paid for. Do you know a free site?
nance, try www.wordsplay.net
po 8/55 the last p for me (the las po 8 please?
te6/7 comb?
ruru - like the word for plastic but minus the 'h' in the middle.
te6 &7 are either the things that hold British breakfast drink or te + 'ring' + what you cook in , then plural.
good clu jac, thanks
jac do you have the other te6/7 as well?
i ove literati
or anybody for that matter?
po + 'untruth or be horizontal' not spelled corectly + number after 9 + vowel.
harp _ I just gave you clues for both te6 & 7.
oh, so I see! thanks!
i thought then second clue was a word for what brittish people use to hold their tea.....lol
hey, peeps
y/w. harp. Postings in chat are slow showing up today!
can anyone clue the last co7/32?
no jac I have that one I need the po8 at at the end of the po's
Hi, tyger.
hey, jac
last co7/32: a flask worn at the waist
see my icon, hillary, lol
it has the same root as a bunch of words before it
hello all -- I should be getting supper
Last co7.32 = 'price of something' + 2nd vowel + upright consonant.
hey, jilli
hy tyger :)
Hi, jilli. Not sure if I should chat. I offended Erda earlier.:((
po8 is a kind of fabric, a Brit name for a familiar synthetic substance
speak up if y'all want an explicit clue :)
oh, jac? How? I'm hard to offend :)
I still can't work out what the last co7 is, even looking at jilli's icon, any further clues?
pa9?
re 6/24 ?
pa9: a variant spelling for those frilly things that 19th century women wore under their skirts
got more than half and I'm falling asleep - don't want qwerty on my forehead - g'nite
re6/24 - what the people who sell houses call their line of work
nite, java
I'm still confused about how I did it, jilli. I said something about how would I now re USA and UK.
co7/32: price + not friends, but ***atives
my icon -- as jac said, price of something, + Einstein's Teory of ***ativity
But, like I said after that, who knows what day it is for someone, what might be bugging them that day, etc.
not a snap, jilli, but maybe that will help them :)
Theory
almost a snap, tyger, lol
i still don't get the pa9
oh, jilli, I think teory is much more interesting ;)
i could use that last po 8 I didn't get jac's clue
last po8: powerfully
My icon now, is my gorgeous daughter and her b/f off to a party earlier in the day.
oops, I wasn't too careful with that
thanks... not a word i was familiar with... that's all the c's

ac7: an apprentice priest, in some religions
ac7 includes the sometimes vowel, but not at the end
i know the word i just don't know one that is 9 letters
pa 9 ----to breathe heavily all by yourself (haz)
Altar attendant in Church.
funny, that ac came to me easily *pondering the reaon*

re 6/18 # 5 please

I'm not getting the pe spanish ball.
Good morning all - I agree Jilli i found this one to be tedious and quite boring
an7 is like the ac7
Hi Jilli Hi all babblebuds!
hi ursh -- glad we agree
pe + ** & behold [angel talk] + ** shor brit bye [also used for thanks] [for last, think of what sp fem workds end in]
howdy, just
agreed too....I get turned off by these monsters
Hi just! More snow, n'est-ce pas?
hi dc......ohhh jilli it's just starting :( have a whole w/e of it coming
oh, jilli, A&P sold their stores in Canada, so Dominion, Food Barn, and A&P in Canada are now a Canadian comany, separate from A&P in New York.
doan't have the ac 7
pe 6 version #2 - pe + opp little *** + * vowel
ac + vowel + not dark spelled funny
have you both finished this grid dc and jilli?
ac7 church helper ends in opp heavy or dark
Thanks, dc. There was an A&P near my mother's apt in Bronxville -- she shopped there all the time
That's funny because A&P just bought out Pathmark in the states.
thanks dc and ndan
Just, I was too busy and got fed up a bit over half way
yes they did.
They're supposed to be the largest supermarket chain in the U.S. now
they still have a & p in metro Toronto...
still smaller than Kroger, i thought.
Good evening to my fellow babblers!How is everyone?
i don't understand why they sold the Canadian division, seeing as it was very profitable for them.
By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! YAY!
evening, minver.
Mum used to giggle when I said "Let's go to the A, and pee"
fireworks, thanks for the help
Hmmm. What is the ke + bird of prey?
but was bought out by Metro Grocery from Quebec
This was a boast that A&P made themselves, may be false.
hi minver
YAY angelina
nice angel...you sure have stamina
Congratulations angelinaxox on fireworks!Good for U
yes A&P sold the rights to their name in Canada, as well as the stors.
ty jill, min and just
Hi Min -- remember the A&P on Midland?

thanks dc
88 would be great if it's in English
Don't think I ever knew there was an A&P on Midland
