and ian is going to email over his roster so we can work out when the best time is to ring him but no more than 3 times a week is requested unless its an emergency
I can get tofu pizza yah
hey sprite, feeling better, or just as sore?
hey, that is a good thing. So he is being more reasonable now? And more inclined to at least be in contact with his kids?
im really enjoying my new job still also tho really feel for my boss - with his wife in hospital with liver cancer
actually ive talked to him twice this past few days and kept the convo everyday stuff and hes been fine
oh which reminds me
herin - he saw oneo f those spiders already lolol
ewwwwwwwwwww times a million
slightly better, rose, thanks for asking. Had a very bad night, slept about 1 hour in total. Might to for a nap this afternoon. But back is stiffening up, which means the worst pain is behind me. Now only the hips and pelvic bone and I will be lots better.
spiders???? You sound good, Kiwi. You hero you.
other sk5, sk + a wind direction,(ie southwest = sw) but three letters
thanks rose
sprite herin sent a link of the pitcairn island spider (photo) its a monster lol

They have snow in Scotland. We 'just' have the ghastly rain and very high winds.
new sites to check out nana.. in case I haven't told you: spogg.com (couple different word games) and king.com (battle word)
ick on high winds
oops word battle
done spogg, it's not bad, haven't tried king.com yet
couldn't get it to work for me, Dee. Word Battle I mean.
hmm... I had some probs 1st time... you have to keep clicking on the play buttons til other player hits accept (like a challenge and you have to say yes or no)
ah, ok thanks, Dee. Will give it another try then.
if someone clicks on your name first, you only have 10 seconds or so to hit the accept button or it will close game
did you get into facebook to check out scramble?
OK my lovelies i must away
bye lady *hug*
Bye infernal.
not yet nana/ had some ouchies this weekend, so didn't come to ask you... we'll get connected this weekend maybe
bye lady, go have fun with your g-string...lol

you dont know what you're getting into volley lol....with nana that is :)
hey!
what is this about Dee getting into nana's G-string??

hey sprite how are you today ...last time i chatted you weren't having a good day...
hi catep, slightly better today, though I hardly slept. Am gathering up courage to do the shopping, lol. How are you?
good....enjoying last few moments of being a dual parent hubby leaves for 6 weeks tomorrow
sprite; I must have been gone the nite you explained ... what happened to you sweetie?
oops, that is a long time. Will think of you, catep!
ty... my baby is a gooen' though so shouldn't be too hard
on top of the re4, I slipped on a stone my son left lying on the floor at the bottom of the stairs, Dee. I fell and hurt myself pretty badly. Nothing broken, but strained and twisted.
big fat ouch.... when I fell in sept and twisted and tore stuff; they said it often doesn't hurt as much if you do actually break something; dear sprite take it easy!!! you will need lots of rest and ice and meds I bet
yes, and I don't want my son to feel bad about it, so I am trying not to wince too much. But it HURTS. But my back is stiffening up now, worst pain is over there. So I trust the re4 will follow.
I sooo hope so; of course you don't want him to feel too badly, but I bet he doesn't leave anything at the bottom of the steps again :~)
i have to run, 30 left to go. Good night ev1 and I hope you feel better soon sprite!
the same weekend I was hurt; a friend of mine had gone to her daughter's to help with a new baby; she was walking thru family room and tripped over a toy, broke her ankle...
gn nana
no, he won't, he really hates it that being a little careless made me fall badly. But those things happen, esp. at that age. I told him he is guilty of letting a stone lying around, NOT of making me fall.
byenana
omg Dee, that is terrible. But I bet it heals faster!
night darty!
nana, thanks and have a good one!
sprains aren't fun, still tender for up to a year or more later
*poof*
arrgh nana, that is long.
LOL sprite... great way to put it to your son; wording is perfect ... exactly what doc told me; still have 3 tender spots on foot
that was my ankle anyway, couldn't step on a small rock without feeling like I was going to go down, it was a very bad sprain
k now I'm outta here....lol....byeeeee
byeeee
I really hope this won't take that long, sigh. Can't handle it on top of the other messes.
*waves at nana*
I do still wobbly at times... like my foot will roll again; have been terrified (paranoid) about falling again
I can imagine that, Dee. Enough is enough!

I was checking the local weather--many schools are still closed because of the 21 inches of snow that came Friday-Saturday.

oooo...such lovely clues this early morning!
hillary, sk 5/18 ---sk + wind direction
Hi Annie - happy & co*****
fran, you are so right
thanks Annie got the co8
thanks lynxxxie and hi
hillary, sk 5/20 ---sk and a tree
after that wind direction we had this weekend, i'm lucky i'm not with out a house covering or landscaping
fran, the wind was awful here, I thought we were going to go flying away...I live 2 blocks from the ocean, always windy here but Saturday was awful
i'm 4 blocks from the LI sound, it was scarey
so you know the feeling...
a tree fell across the street from me.. i heard it cracking, as in slow motion
oh my goodness, that is scary
still missing one 8
peri , the other co?----to be happy and co8, plural
thanks Annie, they weren't difficult words, just were not jumping out at me
70 left, bbl to finish
glad you have the 8's
thanks, got the sk
my car window will not go up, calling body shop, hate this
second ro7/32?
hillary - without a fishing pole.
do you think its a motor thing? if you hear the moter then it might just be this strip of tape like old blinds had. I had one of mine repaired a year ago, it was $30. basically just for labor
thanks... how about el7/32?
... or either of the ts's?
fran, my car door was bashed in last year and it was fixed by a body shop...just called them...they said bring it in tomorrrow...I survived talking to a mechanic...the work is guaranteed
el7 - if you take your clothes off you un*****
actually i found the ts's after all
tx, lynxxx, never knew there was a feminine form of that word!
ts - a 'sound' word, what an old lady might say if she heard swear words
not getting the undressing though...
oops Hil - you do you know!
fem. form of el5
ohmigod... so sorry
"Have tea, will babble" - hi all !
salut!

Hi, montreal.

wtg angel !!
congrats Angel
how about the le4/5?
tx lyn
le4.5 le + his or *e*s
wow. the Hawaiian goose is ever-present!
thanks lynxx
it is Une, it is !!
cr6 anyone?
must have build a babblenest
or ce7?
i have four left and i'm running out of patience!
*built
lol - same word Une is used in french (France, not Québec) as a sort of slang word for breast (avec 2 accents aigus)
really?!
that's funny--my ex, Bernard, had that as a diminutive of his name
yep - heard it in some french songs and some french movies...
ce7 is ce6 with an extra hump letter after the stick letter
ce7 reeat the 3rd letter of the 'middle' after the t
hints for the on7... anything...?
mon dieu! LOL
hillary - on7 = 1st number + Eliott ****
great clue!
or on7 = 1st number + Loch **** monster
merci Une :-)
thanks got 'em... two to go...
tx toad and lyn for the ce7...took me a while...
cr 6?
cr6 cr + f*n*** is a herb
dont have it hillary
tx lyn
not a herb i recognise lynxx... I have f*n*** in my garden but it's not working for me here... i'd appreciate a different spin
try again Hill while I work out another clue - it is dble cons in the middle (not on the end)
actually i found it... i was doubling the consonant... what hard work!
anyway, fireworks, thanks for your help
any 8 clues most welcome.
great!
Congrats Hill !!

A sudden burst of hailstones - since the clothes were just about dry it was worth making the effort to get them in.

do5/14 - another burst of Shakespearian language activity
do 5 14 anyone?
hi again! oh you've been having the hailstorms too?
Hello Atalante - it's been mostly nice today so far, but the hailstones seem to have appeared from nowhere.
Nice nap Ata? Hi Haz I've been lurking and wording.

Let me have a look.
Hey, there's no lizmac in the grid, Haz!!!

You do - it's a bit too far away to see that they're ripping something limb from limb.
**Fmitch
kn5 - in an attitude of prayer?
LOL Liz
ty got it.
cant gaet any el words............help!!!!!!!
got the 5 but cant get the rest.
Two relate to age, el7/32 - Spanish presentation of the bride's garment?
Do you realise you are using up everyones share of ! and ? today
I can't get the el7... but the el5 and 6 mean more and most old
that's an old woman lady
odd word, that el7... ty Haz
ty lady.
good clue as always Haz
You're welcome.
FMitch, which is the Scots fool?
hax still not coming to me. sorry dont know spanish
*bites back an answer*
co4/8 :)
just got it haz. fabulous clue
el plus what a bride wears. It was a joke, relating to el being spanish for 'the'
I've never used the word, FMitch, I must add it to my list of Scots insults.
I don't remember it coming up before either
Is Lizmac still here so that we can consult on Scots insults?
I'm watching in trepidation at the moment! Fire away!
co4/8 - (rhyming with what's on top of a house) - would you ever use it?
le4, 5?
No, maybe UNcoof, though. LOL
anyone have the ts 5
PB!PB!PB!PB!
le4/5 - le plus female possessive minus the vowel
Ummmmm PB!!
oops, kinda gave the game away there, sorry.
ts5 - complained with a singular ts4/8
Awww, I was lured in by Haz, not fair.
As if anybody in Scotland could be called unc4/8!
nm found it
Are you pleading entrapment, liz?
Do we get up a campaign 'Free the Stranraer one'?
what does unco** mean anyway???
LOL, why don't you just pop in with her for 2 mins and have a cup of tea.
We keep it for the poor souls over the water, Haz. Yes, I'm claiming entrapment....Support the campaign, good people as I've only got 96 words so far.
any help with the el7?
What do we want? FREEDOM! When do we want it? NOW!
Hi Flask it was just clued at 9.47
freudian slip there, FM?
Maybe new glasses, FMitch? THat's not Flask's pink flask, that's Fit's pink phone.
Doh just a tad! sorry fit1
Thank you for your support. The PB has paltry goodies when there are no U.S.folk there.
el7 - el plus female attire.
great clue el. Thanks
No oatcakes? No porridge?
haz, I meant great clue LOL
That's okay, fit1, glad it worked.
maybe some crana-thing. can never spell it. yummy stuff with oatmeal adn rasperries
ar 5/14 clue please
Too much porridge & oatcakes, not enough cookies and chocolate.
Cranachan, with a great guttural ch sound.
How many words total today, anyone?
ar5/14 - put a g in front and tumble water at the back of your throat
171 words.
Oh yes Cranachan, it's nice...still not enough to make PB enticing though.
I always groan when they make it on masterchef as I can never remember its name properly
argle
Thanks, Haz!
Phone...
thank you
ty liz
BUT, it looks like I'm going anyway, sorreeeeee.
I suppose it's inevitable, liz. I did try to keep you out.
Please, not the porridge, anything but the porridge.
Call yourself a Scot?
have a haggis instead
Maybe I'm an unc4 Scot!
Or Stovies.
any clue for the el7...last one i need?
Now you're talking!
whats a stovie?
el7 - el plus female attire
Oh I love my porrige in the morning
Stovies, always plural.
thanks haz....got it
Congratulations Ouwachita!
whats a stovies then?!
Potatoes, onions and minced meat...real comfort food.
Stovies, Scottish dish, varying from region and family. Basically a mix of potatoes and left over meat.
anyone need a clue before i go?
oh yum!
Or have a Forfar Bridie!
I'm okay, thanks Ouwachita.
Or a "Jimmy pie" (Scotch pie)
Yes, the ones that come with heart attack warning attached!
Yep, those are the ones.
Is there any Iron-Bru in the PB?
we had rumbledethumps at a Scottish restaurant they were good
are they real?
And what, pray are those westford?
a potato dish
they just made up the name for us didn't they?
I've just googled them - it's the Scots version of bubble and squeak.
No idea, Haz, headed straight for the single malt!
And the Scots version of Irish Colcannon.
don't think there was any meat though
yes they were like colcannon
mmmm colcannon
colcannon day is coming up
No, potato, cabbage, onion. Don't eat beans at the same time, for goodness sake.
and brusslesprouts
We tend to call it colcannon or bubble and squeak, but rumbledethumps sounds more whimsical, doesn't it!
Bubble and squeak - bf makes that dish to perfection
cabbage is so good too bad it has a bad rep
no! NO! no sprouts!
It has a bad reputation because people insisted on cooking it to death.
cr 6/21 please?
and smelling up the kitchen for days
remember when Grandma added bicarb to the pan to soten it down! horrors!
my great-aunt used to serve this *mush* that apparently was cabbage. though it had no structure and no taste
at school you always knew if cabbage was on the menu as you could smell it at 9am
c, the first name of Magritte, finish with a consonant
*wonders why lickety hasn't changed the video since friday*
Enough of this flatulent chat..I'm breaking out of PB (enboldened by aforesaid single malt) to get on with my 71 words.
(For cr6)
Lady, he's probably had other things to do.
**** and georgette magritte avec leur chien apres la guerre *sings*
He doesn't seem to have a lot of time to chat, even when announcing that the clues are done.
Dear goodness, if Vicuna hears there's singing, she'll want to join in.
I suppose so... not intending to complain, just curious
never anything wrong with a bit of Paul Simon
The notes are probably floating o'er the water as we speak
This is true, Atalante, especially when Paul Simon is singing. But VIcuna....
all things shall perish from under the sky music alone shall live music alone shall live music alone shall live never to die
sorry *contrite* any mention of magritte always reminds me of that song though
Oh, the same here, Atalante.
round of applause for westford
thank you thank you but it's a round we can all sing
How many parts to the round?
I love rounds
no one will sing them with me
3 parts
frere jacques frere jacques ...
Do you go too fast? Do you go off-tune? Why have you managed to alienate round singers?
it's just their nature
Dormez vous dormez vous

Too simple. We're professionals.
Or, is it naughty-ish rhyming? LOL, Haz... of course you are.
Scarlet please help me, Haz won't let me go and makes us sing *sob* and everything

She is permitted to induce ennui at every turn, FMitch... and this looks to be a perfect plan...
Look at that FMitch. Trying to blame others.

Hello, folks.
I'll be back later nice chatting and singing with all of you

Doesn't matter. No one would have let me participate anyway. =(
Hello Vi and BabbleR
Can't help what sticks in my head!
we even looked for you!
Well, what were you singing?
We were singing rounds
rounds and rounds
Oh, nice! That must have been something to see!
babble?
It was quite a feat
I'm sorry I missed it.
All is well with you today Vi?
Hello again, any clues for the middle KO, please?
Oh, yes. It's cold but sunny and my first crocuses are beginning to bloom. I was pleased to see the ga6 and 8 in the grid to celebrate!
How about yourself?
Hi liz, think the middle of apples

How lovely Vi, doing fine today and happy I have not had to go out into the windy wild day.

Greek statue, liz. Sometimes holds up a roof,
Yep, just done that, I'm enlightened now!
Nice to have nowhere else you have to be.
I say Vi, just reading your bio re your illustrious brother
Pretty cool, eh? Everyone else in my family got to go see the launch, but I had to stay home with kids. =P
oh noooo! I lwould *love* to see a launch one day
Oh what a shame!
WOW, Vic, that is WAY cool!!
Me, too. My brother's got proposals in for a few other projects so it is possible there may be another chance, but I don't think the odds are particularly high.
I watched the live feed of the launch on the computer, though, and got all choked up.
awwwww

Well, thanks, FM. I'm not really worried about it, I was just teasing. But I am in awe of him!
I know Vi :)
Thanks, Ata, too. It's nice to have support.
go go go go go VI VI VI VI!
lol
*basks in the warm supportive glow*
*vi's official cheerleader squad*
Mutual admiration society.
oooo I'm doing a pretty pic at the moment!
Tell!
Its Galadriel and her birdbath of doom. But its very MUcha, and flowy and pretty
ooo its good!
lol at "birdbath of doom"
I've seen it, manages to look slightly smug
Was this one of the pics that was going to be an angel?
I want to see!
its the only way to describe the thing lol
Fireworks!! See you all tomorrow!
kind of ...
Congrats Liz
Goodbye, lizm!
I'll email you the draft. Just so FM can't look smug
Cool! Thanks.
But, but ... sits down feeling confused
you saw it first, dear
(And by the way, Ata, this savage yank is drinking tea, so you've got NOTHING on me!)
Loool
LMAO. its just such a wonderful quote from Orson Scott Card. It never fails to make me giggle
lol
actually I'd say that more Americans are tea snobs than brits. most people here will just drink PGTips. but over there, you all seem to be a bit more sophisticated
(I'm excluding us inthat, obviously, FM!)
I question the sweepingness of your statement Ata ROFL
I"m not super fancy in my tea tastes. But the recent tea boom has definitely benefitted me, because it's made more varieties - especially decaf black - more widely available.
Hello again!
Helloooooooo, Haz!
LOL I know thats a vast oversimplification. But I don't think I know any American who would happily drink a big mug of PGTips and milk. Though they all do seem to like sugar ...
welcome to stereotypes daily!
Thre was in interesting little snippet this morning about the increase in the tea varieties available as some turn from alcohol to teas
I use sugar or honey, but my Dave doesn't.
Hello there. StereotypesRus?
Well, I do tea and not alcohol, so the more of a social trend that is, the better for me!
ayla always drank some tea with her sugar, I've yelled at her and glared at her until she doesn't now, and appreciates it much more!
Likewsie Vi but it has yet to catch on in traditional pubs
Hello Haz, welcome back
You amaze me! *sarcasm*
I stood up for you in the log earlier, Haz. *smug*
Did you? You mean defended me rather than standing up for the Hallelujah Chorus?
She did Haz
that too
I'll have to check back. Sure nobody told VI anything about the singing?
Well, actually if I'm drinking tea with a meal, I use no sugar. I put in a little if the tea is freestanding, as it were.
You were singing the HAllelujah Chorus earlier? You just told me it was rounds!
We did but were very supportive about it Haz and I don't think she noticed.
we didn't quite get to the Hallelujah ...
It's going to be our Christmas project, Vicuna.
Do you all like sheep?
Very wise to start practicing already, Haz.
Don't talk to me about sheep. It's lambing season.
Mint sauce!
I do. Do ewe?
Ha Ha
Feeling sheepish for having mentioned it.
Anyway ... why did you ask?
Telephone calls at unearthly hours with sheep needing attention.... I do like to eat lamb, though.
ewes are dangerous... a ram went over the cliff for failing to see the ewe turn
"Messiah" joke. One of the choruses goes "All we like sheep..."
groan
ewe mean, why did ewe ask?
Have gone astrayayayayay.
("... have gone astray.")
No I didnt Ata, silly me for trying to be sensible for a nanosecond!
Testify, Haz!
(An excellent contribution, BabRab!)
I disappeared with lilies and come back to Wiffenpoof... is Vicuna at it again?
Hello Scarlet - Vicuna is here and we're trying desperately to steer her away from singing.
Whiffenpoofs? You want I should start in with "Boola boola" too?
:-) I would expect nothing less from you, Vi!
Rather thee than me, Haz.
I think, Haz, that if you reread your own contributions to the chat, you will not find much attempt to steer anyone away from singing!
I do love gray columns...2, 3, 4 grey
Good going, asgreen! :-)
Ah, but that was when you weren't here, VIcuna. Now that you are... so, how are your children these days?
Ah, the peaceful grey of columns laid to rest...
I think I need a break - been babbling and making flight arrangements for April break...
Well, since you ask, my daughter just joined the church choir, Haz!
hallelujah!
Excellent - she has shaken off the family curse, then?
lol! I'm a Quaker. We don't even have choirs! So she's simply the first generation to have had a choir option.
Any help with el 7/32 please
phone brb
Well, to be serious for once, I hope she enjoys it - singing in a choir is great for people of all ages.
el7/32 - feminine version of el5/12, ends in woman's frock
ty Vicuna
She's excited about it, and it's the first organized thing she's done without her brother.
awwww
It's great. One of the local television stations here started a School Choir of the Year competition quite a number of years ago and it has really encouraged young people to take part in choirs.
hello all
25 to go - I could take that break....or..... :)
HI, kattie.
hi carlee
There are sections for primary and secondary schools, and we even get some of the special needs schools taking part - it's fantastic.
Hello carlee.
In my schools growing up one always had to choose between singing or instrumental music, which I thought was a shame.
Hello, carleekat.
That sounds excellent, Haz.
That is a shame, one complements the other.
so..just back from applying for passports for kids
Of course, at least we had music programs, which many schools now are cutting...
Are you planning a trip, kat?
You're deporting them?
we are thinking of taking a family vacation... hubby wants to do "tourist trap " destinations... where as I want to go... off beaten path
lol haz
Sounds exactly like the inner you, kattie.
no..i'd deport hubby before kids..they the ones that allow me to KEEP my sanity right now
is the 2nd ro7 similar to the one above it?
There are places... Yucatan peninsula springs to mind... where you actually can get both together.
I saw a plaque in a shop today and thought of stid, who was expressing horror at her two boys' behaviour. 'I love giving handmade gifts. So which of the kids do you want?'
he'd do cancun... porta vallarta...
lol, Haz!
Yes, and then you can do Chichen Itza, Coba...
The second ro7/32 - could describe fishermen lacking in vital equipment. Or the state of the wives divorced by singer Mr Stewart
I'd rather..belize... or honduras
got it - great clues haz!
Good - glad they worked!
Exellent, Haz! Thank you./
You're welcome, Scarlet.
ok.....back in a few... making lunch...greek salad..and tater tots ( its march break )
See you soon, kattie.
got the ro 8 all by myself lol
See you later, carlee.
Oh, Ata, you still here? Just checked my mail. How wonderfully deco! I REALLY love the plants along the bottom.
wheeeeee!
Will it be colored eventually?
Im going to colour it in for her :)
oh yes. just deciding - slowly - whether to do dusk (purple/blues) or daytime (yellow/green/light blues)
Ive got my pencils out now all ready
I think she looks more resigned than smug... but as she was feeling pretty smug about her resignation, I guess that goes together!
Is this a show of hands situation?
ok - dizzy w/words here - taking a break - bbl for real chat and last 17
Afternoon, one and all. Might anyone have mercy on my soul and toss a clue for the el7, please?
I'm not sure what expression to give ehr in the end ... smug probably!
See you later, as.
Bye, asgreen.
el7 - el plus a female garment
Twilight would fit in better with the idea of the waning of her power and all that.
Ty, Haz. Can stop banging my head on the keyboard now.
Perhaps we should have a contest and everyone gets to colour one in?
Yes, Judi, please do. The neighbours were complaining.
Yes, Judi, please do. The neighbours were complaining.
lol. They do coloring contests at the supermarket here!
.
It would, Vi. And I'd really like to do that. But everyone does her in twilight!
The log's gone mad.
I bet my daughter would LOVE to color that picture.
Its all been too much for Haz
Will we have a show of hands about who wants to colour in?
It's been AGES since we've had a good show of hands.
(Haz, how do I say this gently: I'm not sure it's the LOG that's gone mad...)
Me me ME!
lol print it out and let her go mad!
Hand!
What do you mean? I'm a bit bewildered.
Hello guys :)
What are we going to colour in anyway?
Ahem, try and look normal gang :)
Maybe dusky down by the ground but still brilliant colors in the sky?
Good afternoon Broken. You can call me Bewildered.
Hi Stasis
oh - I'll email it to you ,haz!
Okay, looking normal for the visitors.
Oh good. I'll get my crayons ready, Ata.
Starts to hum "Bewitched, bothered and bewildered..." Then remembers the injunction about normalcy.
Hello Bewildered! And FM.. I'm kinda new here. This's like, my fourth board
Ex-tangleworder, here :(
Welcome, Broken.
It's LOVELY, Ata. I don't think my crayons are up to this.
its getting there. I think. She has an impossibly swirled dress right now, but hey!
Ah well, Broken, you've come to the right place. We've provided a home from home for quite a few Tangleworders.
So I've heard :) The community here is a lot tighter, though :)
(PB Ata, female garment -- shhh, nobody else noticed)
tighter? is that a good thing?
what huh how why when? *innocent*
Tighter as in closer together, not tighter as slang, haha :)
Well, sometimes it's tight, and sometimes it's fast and loose.
'She has an impossibly swirled dr5....'
we have our moments ...
what huh how why when? *still unbelievably innocent*
But it's always very dignified, isn't it?
utterly
Atalante, 12.33.
oh totally dignified Haz, dr5 for dinner and everything
Ata gets to use the stereotypical artistic genius defense: she was out of her mind with creativity and not responsible for her actions.
lol i know haz! I'm just ignoring it
Stasis you know about licketys list and agels resource pages?
Ata, I have my loden green and mud brown crayons ready... just aim me in the right direction!
So, tell us, Broken, apart from being an ex-Tangleworder, where are you from and if you're a millionaire, can you publish your address so we can send begging letters?
*aims Scarlet toward the damply thwaing spring yard*
*thawing
Wah! My crayons won't work on the wet lawn...
Did someone say millionairre?? *batts eyelashes fetchingly*
But Broken, if you happen to be a handsome male millionaire DO NOT tell Haz!
Sits Haz down *time for your meds dear*
are you called George really?
Get in line, Judi.
Welcome, Brokenstasis... this is the inmates running the asylum... as usual.
Scarlet! Don't mention the asylum, you know how nervous FMitch gets.
Haha :) Not a millionaire no :( But I'm a male who's been called handsome? 21 year-old musician, I don't think I'll be a millionaire within the next couple years anyway :x
*elbows Haz aside* By the way, I have no children.
Good afternoon all. I see Haz is up to her usual tricks!!!
Goodness. He is a child. I rescind my elbow.
21. You're 21. Rapid calculations.
hi everyone.. how many words today?
Hello, young, handsome creature. YOu're young enough to be my grandson. Watch the circling schools of fisherwomen... AND you have a winner's attitude!
Be brave, Broken. Be strong. Just remember, they can't really get to you through your screen.
Hello Denny!
Hit the panic button that makes bullet proof screen shoot up protecting new babbler from "The Ladies"
I'll fend them off as best I can textually, Vicuna, no worries :D
Hi Haz. Now be gentle on the newbie, save him for me!
Sure, sure, FMitch... and you will be the primary caretaker, no doubt?
I have a 21 year old daughter. And a 24 year old. But the 21 year old is pretty (so is the other, though she's taken). You're sure you're not a millionaire?
That's the spirit! You'll fit right in then!
Which side of the Atlantic are you, Broken?
That's no lady, FM. That's Haz!
hey, can youse peel yourselves off the newbie and clue me the 2 top right S's?
LOL, Vic!
Matchmaker, Matchmaker... Haz, why am I channeling "Fiddler on the Roof"?
sk5/20 - sk + endangered tree
Make me a match, catch me a catch - that one?
Not a millionaire, but I have a rich personality? :) I live in MI, in the states.. I'll cough up half a plane ticket's worth if you fly her over!
sk5/18 - sk + With freinds like Haz, who needs ---mies.
sk5/20 - attach a Dutch disease threatened tree
hello all
sk5/18 - s plus a reworking of an eager word
sounds good, haz!
thank you for both
stoopid words that they were
hi peri
Uh oh. Negotiations have begun.
Yes, Haz! :-) Hi, peri and say hello to BrokenStasis... a newbie who is getting the freshman hazing right now!
That's Haz-ing.
A rich personality don't pay no bills.. have you any brothers?
I noticed the hazing in the chat.
Fireworks, by the way. *temporarily blinded by new meat Broken* Lost my train of thought.
Hey Broken from Michigan come on over to MY house . . . I'll give you a cookie
Hello BrokenStasis and welcome. Most of the people here are harmless.
wtg judi yyayayayayay
Congratulations Judi!
(Look at that Esprit. Shameless)
Yay for Judi!
Vi! LOL... excellent! :-)
Whereabouts do you live Esprit? Haz, nope, but I have four bandmates and three roommates I'm sure I can tap from!
I have no boundaries, Haz, you know that
WHAT do you mean, peri... MOST?
you noticed, Scarlet
Thank you for the warm welcome Peri :)
I know Esprit, but I thought you might have kept the cookies out of it for a while longer.
I am in suburbs of Chicago, not too far to travel for a really NICE, WARM cookie :-)
Even as few as 50.1% could truthfully be called "most."
LOL, peri... very good! :-)
THEY'RE STORE BOUGHT!
the cookies are just a teaser for the
*sniff sniff* That's not cookie... that's inuendo!
(( . ) ( . )
which state is MI? Too many M states
Does esprit always speak in sexual connotations?
I guess even in text, the right boob is always a little larger
Hey! registered sex offenders have feelings you know!
Not exactly sneaky, though, is she? She is an out-and-out snalce.
Michigan, Ata
ata - isn't it M ichigan?
Mostly... so she'll forget she's 96 and a half.
oh! cold place
LOL Broken
um, "snalce"? Should I be offended?
Way to porn up the chat, Esprit. Never saw text boobs before. Oh, my sheltered lif.
*life*
Welcome Broken Hi all
you want to see more Judi?
Must say they were very pert!
*High fives Denny* I think you're the only one who noticed :D Hi Diem!
I can do the male part
Hi diem
Hello diem!
NoNoNoNoNo!
snalce -n. - scheming, conniving vixen, usually female, sexual manipulator Only you can say whether you're offended!
:-(
Hi, diem... good to see another man here... I think our newbie, BrokenStasis needs some male support!
Good Lord! What HAVE I walked into??
It's not good, Jac.
Esprit - not a 'pert' one if you please, some of us are easily embarrassed!
a jockstrap for the newbie!
Hello Jacula! You're sensible, you'll get them under control.
Jacual, turn around and walk away. Before it's too late.
Hi Jacula
rampant hormones Jacs, there will be handbags at dawn, mark my words!
Scarlet - How do you know Broken needs a truss?? Because he's broken?
*sponges estrogen off the walls* Hope it's not too steamy in here for you, Broken.
I've put Spangle's ears over her eyes. She's too young for this.
*Jacula. Sigh. I made you look like a jackal.
Also, some of us have been husbandless for weeks now. Seeing one could send me 'over the edge'!
Broken, the chat is usually not like this
Should we start another round of rounds? Row row row your boat, anyone?
It was an educated guess, Jac!
LOL, Haz. Take a photo!
Nah, I'm sorta used to this sort of thing Judi :) I've been playing online word games for a few years now, haha
He wasn't broken when he arrived!!
No it's worse!
So, Broken, when you said you'd heard the Babble community was "tighter," did you realize what that implied?
Haha, yeah, I was just Stasis, just a bit ago
I knew what it could be implied as, but I wasn't aware of what it could start, Vicuna, haha
And yet... words are being found!
Amazing, isn't it!
Well, I'm off. The carpet guys are just about finished. Have to go inspect my seams.
I've giving a class in cyber symbols in 5 minutes
Could we call you Ken for short? Or do you have a shorter name we could use than BrokenStasis?
This chatline is usually, ah... more civilized than this, Broken... poor thing... walking right into the jaws of the lionessess... which, by the way, is the icon theme for today!! YOU'RE a PLANT, aren't you, Broken... hey?
you just saw an example of one (two actually)
Bye Judi
Bye Judi.
*poof*
Bye, Judi.
Scarlet I think you had better stop calling this a chat line as that is a WHOLE different ballgame.
You can call me Geoff, Haz :) That's my real name.. I'm a plant? Haha, I don't follow :x
I want to know hos his stasis got broken anyway
**Snort!!* Oh, FM... ever my guiding muse...
*how*
Geoff it is.
It got caught in the door on the way in Esprit
Planted to unearth the true personalities of the lurking Babblers... and I LIKE the name Geoff!
Hahaha, FM
ooooooooooh, then I definitely want to meet him!
hello all -- unexpected extra time at home today (sick kid)... so working early to finish
One of the few Jeff-with-a-G's in the states, really
Drat! I missed my mouth laughing at the chat and now I have Lucozade down my front.:(
welcome to chaos, stiddy
Goodness knows what the lurking babblers are thinking.
I'm away for a few weeks, and LOOK WHAT HAPPENS...
probably the same as the non lurking ones Haz
lol, Jacula! The mouth is the big one in the middle of your face, just below the nose!
LOLOLOL rofpml at Jacula
SHERB! It's been months!
Hey Sherb!
{{{{sherb!}}}}
SHEERRRRBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB!
Call the attendant, Jac, she'll help you with your meds
Oh subtle Jacs, I suppose you just HAve to take it off now?
Hi Sherb & Stid. Vicuna just said I'm a big mouth!
thanks atalante -- do you have the "new me" ready yet?
Hi, sherb and newcomers... the terrible razing is just about over, I would hope.**crossing fingers behind back**
Hi Stid - sorry didn't see you some in!
Hello, stidmama. It's even wilder than usual today.
hiya all... xxxxxxxxx
Sherb, welcome back.
FM - Not likely! I'll keep my assets to myself.
Jill's turn today, you are tomorrow! I can only face doing one a day!
How have you been, sherb?
Hello, sherb.
okay atalante! *waiting patiently to see what I shall be like when I am old*
Hi, stid. I don't have to wait.
Darn. I have to go and make tea. Husband has arrived home so I'd beter look productive.... See you later!
bye haz
I'm getting there slowly, stid!
Until later, Haz, and thank you for the laughter.
A thing of beauty just like the rest of us who have been Ata'd stiddy
You mean, when you're old and have gone utterly out of your wits and lost all semblance of good taste you ever had, don't you, stid?
I'm good thanks Haz... catch up wth you later... :)
Bye Haz
Goodbye, Haz!
later Haz! have a lovely evening!
by haz
I'm in the middle of dinner-making, too. 'Bye, Haz.
One has to have wits in the first place to lose them, Vi --
which reminds me! I have some pics to put up! (Tom finally scanned our block prints for me)
CE 7 pretty please?
Ata - Not sure if I've seen you since you did my makeover. It's, erm, lovely. Thank you.
Oh, you have plenty of wits, stid! They may run wild and free, but they're yours!
Grid. There is a grid. <-------- Right over there... what a concept!
el7 please?
EL + woman or girl's garment, pigeon
crud. ty.
LOL pigeon!
:-)
the words are as stupid as ever, I see...
LOL, sherb... some things NEVER change!~
Yeah, tough board today :(
It's a lovely grid today sherb
The first 120 were fairly straightforward... now I am in a swamp...
not horrible though -- with the list I am almost making progess with 45 to go
not too bad, but I'm stuck on the Cs...
FIREWORKS!:-)
(still waiting for the CE 7 btw)
Congrats Jacs
Yay for Jacs!
me too...
YAY Jacula!
I've gotta get some stuff done today, I'm gonna leave it halfway for right now... Thanks for the warm welcome, haha, take care!
Well done, Jacula!! @@@
Still dont have stid
Well, it's 6pm so it's bath time (Congrats Jac by the way). Hope to be back later to finish. Good luck Geoff
Bye, Broken.
how have you been FM?
bye stasis-guy!
ce7 = ce6 above it with an extra consonant after the 3rd one.
hello FM!!!!
later Denny!
Bye Stasi
thanks Jac *thinking*
Bye, Denny.
or Jeff-with-a-G
Gotta go - new potatoes are cooked ready to go in an onion and tomato salad with salmon. Happy Babbling!
I'm glad you like it, Jac :D
Stasi? Wasn't that the East German police?
later Jac!
:) Take care!
Very well thanks sherb but so wanting spring to be here soon Bye Jacs
got it! down to 44! LOL
So long, Broken! Come back now, y'hear?
I don't understand that ce clue :-(
the weather today has been appalling... roll on Spring...
Esprit: put another consonant after the third consonant that's already there... or add a consonant to the penny word and end like the ce 6
I have been reading about flooding around the UK again...
the only ce 6 I have is the one for middle
and its still going on stid another night of gales and rain and high tides.
that's right stid... Spring tides and a big storm...
Esprit take that word and add a cons for the 7
hi stid! (and I'm back again - just to grab a few more)....got dinner in the crock
{{{{{U.K.}}}}} oh dear
hey there AS!
right... have to go and make supper... I'll be back!!
Sherb have you been away or working?
just working FM... and playing games that don't take so much time... but they don't have the same community spirit as Babble... I've missed it...
It's that time of the day: I'm off to school to meet the darling offspring. Farewell, everyone.
Ta ta, Witty Vicuna! :-)
later Vi!
Bye Vi, its been fun!
Vic - I'm soon behind ya (sort of)
ON 7 please?
see you later, FM, if you're around... *poof*
The harmony of the universe, stid.
and we missed you too sherb
Or, first number and the loch.
harmony as in music, or as in getting along?
stid - being alone
oh! thanks Scarlet! :-D
:-)
and thanks AS!
yw - I was late, sorry
Hi Babble Buddies! Just stopping by to enter a few before someone arrives to measure for shutters..
hello Aloyisius!!!! how are you ?
where are you? do you have snow or twisters?
Hi Aloy
lol, stid.. I'm in SW Fla.. where it is WARM..(almost feel guilty, but not really)
warm sounds really really nice.... <------ points to imaginary brazil flag
HI, Aloy! Nice... we have 58 degrees today, for a change! Basement flooding all cleaned up and shiny?
basement flooding???
whew, Scarlet.. that happened to us in Ohio.. what a pain in the butinsky!
clue for the first re 5/10?
I meant to put an exclamation mark there, and it turned into a question mark. Yes, stid. Two of them in one week! :(
There was a sleep apnea discussion the other day. On NBC news today I heard of another treatment - 10 min/$2000 great results - they insert 3 pillars into the soft palate to counteract the wall collapse. They featured Dr. Craig Scwimmer of The Snoring Center in Texas. No machines or anything else after, and those interviewed said no pain or fuss either.
first re 5 is re + criminal in prison (slang word)
wow Aloyisius, no fun
Butinsky, back and upper arms!
Hi People.
that sounds really great nDan!
hey red!
How is everyone?
no, the 5/10....but thx!
re - what leading soldiers are sent out to do
redturtle!! :-) good to see you!
yes.. we spent a labor day weekend bailing out my inlaws' basement
oops. sorry -- re + *** the dog in, *** the dog out, *** the dog in...
re 5 10 - put apt up for rent again
Yuck, Aloy... it was nature's way of telling us "throw out the 'stuff'."
there. firewords
yay for stid, congrats!!!!!
WOW, that was fast, stid! Congrats! @@@
wow. poor lickety need videos...
congrats stiddy
well, I did 120 or so last night...
NOt John Lennon and the juggler again?
glad your basement is finallycleaned, what a difficult thing Scarlet!!
Life being life, red! Are you all ready to head east really soon?
yes scarlet, again.
I think I should go find lickety something fun.
Really ready, am experiencing a bit of post race letdown...
Okay, stid. I love the song... not much appreciation of jugglers, though. This man was quite the choreographer with those three balls.
Glad to hear it, red. We have to be in touch for your Asheville visit! :-)
Oooh you could giveLickety the Canyonlands half video, its very inspirational, but only if you run, I guess...
How long was your race? Is that the half-marathon?
Yes, Scarlet, I leave in about 24 days, not that I am counting...
I don't know what that is -- you could suggest it though.
:-D there are so many things to find and enjoy on the 'Net!
LOL, red!!
okay, I'm off for a bit -- email, etc etc.
glad to hear the Ark reached ground. hopefully no more like that tjis spring
That would make you here by March 34th or so!! ;-)
see you next time, stid..
:) I'm actually still really tired. Race, and doing4 parks in 3days wasa bit much for me...
LOL scarlet!
:-)
Scarlet may need your support, waiting to hear about the job. They are working on a contract and have some questions for me.
Okay, dear. Tell me what you need.
darn - phone, missed clue, and now need to go - back later for my last 5!! *poof
watch out you don't overdo, red.. my son messed up his feet.. he loves to run!
not yet, Scarlet but thanks. Glad you are my SF (sister-friend) :-)
Always, dear peri.
Zoe-Anne is not much help
LOL Aloy, I am laying in bed, trying to take a nap, and then work, I really need to get movign more...Aloy does you son run in FL?
Bye all 78 for later
Later, diem!!
oops, gotta go.. bbs, (I hope)
taking a short break, waiting for a return call, bbs
Poor Zoe-Anne is busy being catlike, peri... she has 22 hours of sleeping to do! Later, Aloy!
no, rt.. he is in CA
Later, peri.
and she does it well, Scarlet :-)
byee
:-)
Okay red! What town are you heading to in Florida? Did you get the Orlando area? Is the J-man still in the picture? Are you happy with your contract requirements and pay scale?
I'mgoingtobe inClermont. J is out of thepicture for me. He called the other day, but whatever. Good withcontract, I think...depending on how thingsgo...
Trying to decideIfIwanttobrave theDisney crowds to run a 15K there in May...
This is sounding really, really good red!
Yes, I am excited, all exceptfor theJ problem, but he can suck it up and deal...
How close to Orlando is Clermont? Is this hospital work, home health care, ER placement...?
fled
And I go to the PB...
:-)
20 min from Orlando. ER, I cant do Home health!!! In fact, I cant do anything but ER....
throws in hot sauna for muscle therapy only ;
Sauna?
We had Hot tub all weekend. V. Nice.
You are one of the special people then, red. I always thought that doctors (my own father included) treated the ER staff like lower caste people... and a good ER nurse is worth her weight in emeralds.
well, in side the ER, we treat each other really well, so no problems in my book...
You do know that you are going to live in the lightning capitol of America, right?
I didi not know that!
You do now!
Well, best not to run int he rain with an ipod then....
I wouldn't run outside with even one cloud in the sky... it comes fast and it's powerful.
Well,hopefully, there will not be any clouds for the hot summer...but I am not counting on it.
It's a very flat state and you will be smack dab in the center (well, Orlando is) and the storms are awesome.
So, I am hoping to run a lot, but we'll see. I am so so sore after this little race...
I sat in my hotel room in Orlando... for three hours watching the most amazing electrical storm... this was three weeks after 9/11...
Maybe you overdid it, red. Can you soak and take some ibu's for the achiness?
both ac's please
Wow. Never been toOrladno before, so this is a new experience...
No AC words, magz.
I really think the issue was that post race, wetooka shower and went hiking, for about 5 hours....
Yerch.
sorry, looking at the wrong papers
LOL, magzel!
It was really neat, we went up to Arches National park, and yesterday we went to Mesa Verde, but a lot of the mesawas closed due to snow pack.
ARe you travelling with your dog too, red... or is that a really stupid question? LOL
he went to the vet for the weekend. My friend flew in from Atlanta, and we met another bunch of friends fromUtah...
Nice!
Yes, it was crazy social for me. We are already talking about doing another one in moab in October, but,we'llsee...
Are you feelingless Blah-ey now?
Where is the Burning Man annual madness, red? I am not confusing you with anyone else, I just remember someone posting that last year... have you heard of it?
I've heard o it, but never been, its somewhere out west...
Yes, I am much less blah-ey now, red... I guess that cleaning the basement is a great leveler! LOL
Cool, on the basement, and glad you got it done...
YOu have some great friends, red... and you all sound very outdoorsy folks... Why do you run?
Mostly to keep from being fat. But it is very addicting, so its hard to stop. And it gives e an opportunity to run all over and meet neat people...I do need some other hobbies though...
Good Day To All Fellow Babblers! One left, and it'd criving me nuts - and my monkey is taking a late lunch :( Help please with the RO7/32...the one after the beady-eyed, squeaky, hairy, horrible little cheese eaters...

Thanks for the chat, all, good luck, see you later! ::: skitters out the door ::: P O O F ! !
See you soon, Ankh!
bye Ankh
Bye Scarlet, Lady, Ata, Aloy, Magzel, Nan, all!
later, Ankh..
just thought I'd pop in for a visit... finished the grid earlier, but I'm waiting to be able to take my vehicle out to run errands (cleaning lady parked in the driveway)
ooh, send her over here when she finishes, Lady..
it'll cost ya! (heaven knows it costs me enough)
Not much happening here now, LadyN... we did have a rather active hazing of a newbie earlier... his name is BrokenStasis, and Haz enquired as to his status... he is 21, handsome and talented.
cool!
sorry I missed that, Scarlet!
And he will kick in half of the plane fare for Haz's 21 year old daughter!
me too
I have an 18-y-o daughter I'd like to send...
ya just never know what is going to happen next in BabbleLand...
where's he from?
For someone that young, he handled some rather suggestive comments quite well... Michigan, Lady.
Exactly, Aloy... it's a trip down the rabbit hole every day... LOL
that's far enough...
LOL
LOL, scarlet.. so true, so true
I LOVE this place!
am struggling to imagine a ho8.60 horse...
kinda hard to gallop
but it could walk, albeit stiltedly
unless it were overweight
perhaps it's just used as a general term, to describe animals that do not have them...
ah so, Lady..
And full of Twinkies...
Maybe it's an archaic term meaning not shoed...??
did you sneak into the stable and feed them Twinkies?
MOI??? Heaven fofend!
they have white foam on their nozzles
must have me6.24 when they chewed the twinkies
And all that messy burping...
Aloy, your use of "albeit" reminds me of one of my favourite poems.
tell me, Lady..
Please?
pretty please
Just a sec... it's rather long, and I haven't memorized all of it
Do you want a Twinkie?
lol... a creme filled one..
I love the banana creme thingamabobs... full of high cholesterol and saturated fats... mmmmm
ah, the health food ones
Some of the college kids down here have a hotline open to their parents up north... to send them TastyKakes... all flavors... it's like feeding the pigeons when the package comes!<LOL\
LOl, Aloy...
we will have to put some of them in the pb
actually, i have an alarm in my tummy that goes off when i try to eat a doughnut or other such "health food", so i guess i'm glad about that
The Embarrassing Episode of Little Miss Muffet... by Guy Wetmore Carryl
making a note of that, Lady
Little Miss Muffet discovered a tuffet (which never occurred to the rest of us)
and as 'twas a June day and just about noon-day, she wanted to eat, like the best of us
Her diet was whey, and I hasten to say that it
sorry... Her diet was whey and I hasten to say that it's healthy and people grow fat on it. The spot being lonely that lady not only discovered the tuffet but sat on it.
A rivulet gabbled beside her and babbled, As rivulets always are thought to do, And dragon flies sported around and cavorted, As poets say dragon flies ought to do;
When, glancing aside for a moment, she spied A horrible sight that brought fear to her, A hideous spider was sitting beside her, And most unavoidably near to her!
and here's my favourite part....
Albeit unsightly, this creature politely Said, "Madam, I earnestly vow to you, I’m penitent that I did not bring my hat. I Should otherwise certainly bow to you."
Though anxious to please, he was so ill at ease That he lost all sense of propriety, And grew so inept that he clumsily stept In her plate -- which is barred in Society.
This curious error completed her terror; She shuddered, and growing much paler, not Only left tuffet, but dealt him a buffet Which doubled him up in a sailor knot.
It should be explained that at this he was pained; He cried, "I have vexed you, no doubt of it! Your fist’s like a truncheon." "You’re still in my luncheon," Was all that she answered. "Get out of it!"
And THE MORAL is this: Be it madam or miss To whom you have something to say, You are only absurd when you get in the curd But you’re rude when you get in the whey!
Delightful, LadyNatts!!
BRAVO, LadyNatts... thundering applause.. that was great! ty so much for sharing such a delightful poem! still chuckling..
:D... thank you, thank you. I just love his use of words in that.
that was great
TY LadyN so clever!
very nice 'pome' but curds & whey aren't fattening - that's cottage cheese!
What a gem!
but I'm grinning, all the same :D
can be fattening, tyger... depends on the level of fat in the milk used to make it
LadyNatts that was real good ty :)
my mom used to make homemade cottage cheese
scarlet, just checked your profile for the icon, and read the story - it's GREAT! ;)
drek
well, natts, you're right. but most cottage cheese isn't made out of whole milk :)
wrong box, sassy
thanks, tyger!! I thought it was adorable, too. Husband passed it along to me!
to be six again....
Yes...
very cute!
don't think I'd mind being six again (and was never a size six, except maybe when I was 5yo, as I was always the tallest girl in my grade, until HS.
oops, forgot )
HIs best friend sent it to him, beloved to me, and on it goes into cyberspace~ I don't want to be six again... I'm ten times that, and would not change a moment of the pain and the glory!
got a couple of years on you, scarlet, and most days I certainly wouldn't change, since we know we couldn't take any of the painfully-gained wisdom back with us to an earlier age :(
Speaking of pain... Lynxxx, are you out there? I cannot find the last RE5/12 to save my skin. Right before taking a breather.
always a pleasure chatting with all of you. The cleaning lady has departed and I'm off to run a few errands. I'll be back later!
bye, natts
bye, LadyNatts... and thanks again. (-:
That is the wisdom speaking tyger... Later, LadyNatts, and thank you for a classic!
finished early today, so thought I'd come in here. give me a sec, scarlet
re5, 12 ... put more grass down
re5/12 is plural of preceding re4/5

the cow's stomach juice one, that is
can anyone clue me for the 8's? i've only been able to findho 8/60 so far :(
LOL... perfect, indeed, tyger!
CO8 in front of a book is a Table of CO8 (plural)
yll, the ending on the one you've got is also the ending for several other 7s & 8s
okay, thanks tyger, i'll see where that gets me :)
Then when there is competition, or one enters a Pillsbury Bake-Off, it is called a CO8/45
excellent clues, scarlet
The man or woman who gives the greatest care to your flower beds is a GA8/55

Good grief, I still get 250 spams a day trumpeting "Colon Cleanse", "Hot Pix", "Phoenix University", "Work at Home and earn Big BuX"... I really am tired of flushing them into obscurity...
**I second the motion, Book** That is a perfect word!

What the heck??NEW YORK (AP) A law enforcement official tells The Associated Press that Gov. Eliot Spitzer's involvement in a prostitution ring was caught on a federal wiretap.
Oh yeah. He'd like the world to know that this is a private, personal matter
why was the fed wiretapping the gubna??
Hello, took a break to scarf down some home made guacamole
Unlike all those folks he prosecuted. THOSE were public.
Ouch! Someone is caught in a wringer!!

Helllllooooo
Clue for the first re 5/12??
How was the guac?
it was delish, Samantha
Scarlet are you done with the grid?
Lucky peri! I love guacamole
when you make things over it's called a re***
Peri, now I'm hungry.
politicans are slimy! when he caught a bunch of people in a prostution ring, it was public and a great photo-op for him. but when it is him, then itisa personal matter.
I ate all of it, Scarlet
I have three left, peri... got entangled in a touch of silliness...Big surprise, right? :-)
:-)
babbz, I have one before that--a re*** mission is where you observe and gather intelliegence, and it's short for re***naissance
Hi Bubba

there are three RE in the grid which makes it confusing for me
peri, don't feel bad... I never get that one.
yea it is confusing peri
i kept forgetting to look everywhere
I'm getting extremely sick and tired of these hot flashes I keep having.
Good luck on that, Lady... I've had them for 35 years...
oh thanks, Scarlet.. that's reassuring!
really Scarlet? I had a couple of warm flashes and it was over
HRT only made them worse, so I deal. LOL, Lady... that's just me... maybe you'll have a short time of it. Lucky you, peri!
im always hot anyway never know the difference
Same with me, sadie... I'd wear a sleeveless shirt in the dead of winter for years and my face was a tomato for about five years.
a (male) friend of mine told me once that he'd read women who start menstruating late go through menopause early, and those who start early go through it late.
I think it's more a genetic disposition to whatever your mother and grandmother endured...
my sister was a late-bloomer... I was early... she was "done" menopause at 45... I'm just starting.
im alwasy in sleeveless shirt and shorts
always
I can type realy i can
I am always cold
Mother had a traumatic
you'd probably like it here then, sadie... it's plenty cool in winter :D
"change" through a hysterectomy, and my grandmother told me everything just stopped and she never had an uncomfortable day from there on.
I used to live in Pittsburgh gets alot of snow and ice was nice I loved it
Go Steelers.
hehehehe
28 left
hehe... I do love the snow. But I like it less in the city (and suburbs) than I liked it when I was growing up in the country.
I am liking the longer days
love my Steelers
yea e too peri
although with time change this weekend was weird when i got up and still dark
Oh, daughter has arrived. See you all soon, and happy Babbling! Lady, I copied your poem and will pass it along to others... it's a keeper!

oh, there you are
hi all - in for my last two!
seem i need more deodorant, eh? LOL
hi AsGreen
why would you leave with 2 left?
I left with 5 left (had to drive my kiddos), then popped in for one, then another two, now I'm here!
(or, you could say, I was savoring the end?)
lol... incomprehensible
POUNCEEEEE
hi herin - pouncing on me?
You responded so yes
morning Infernal
fireworks!
hiya herin! pounce is the right thing for a lion to do... note that both your lion and my lioness are upside down.
yay, asgreen!
congrats Asgreen
Morning.
thx!!
hi infernal, and all of my other buddies
Yes and its dang funny to see a lion do that. The bunny act on big kitties is funny.
YAH As
so, dumb computer question....I seem to have put the lickety add word box too high, and now can't "grab" it to move it. What do I do?
very true, herin... and my domestic kitty was doing that just a few minutes ago... I told him he looked stupid.
Natts my kitty was doing that all day as it was too warm for her.
asgreen, i can give you a method, but it's tricky
ok, I'm game
you have a white kitty, right? I have 2 black ones. But a week ago, my daughter found a white one, so cute. Gotta give it up, though. We have the 2 blacks and daughter has 3 cats in her accommodations in the basement
1. hold down Control and Alt and then hit Delete ONCE
2. wait for a window to open called Task Manager
I'm in the t.m.
I do have a white kitty. Flicka has her rabbit picks. Please find the kitty a good new home
3. find Babble Expert on the list, and if it's not highlighted then click it to highlight it
4. hit the button "end task". this will close babble expert, then you restart babble expert
I will, herin... 2 men from work sounded interested when I talked about her last week.
ok - will do - brb
good luck
how many words?
171, Gkmandy
ty much
My kitty came from a friend and one of the people that had the kitty and the friend in the house told me my kitty is getting fat I told them 'well im making up for her being neglected' No one disagreed. Mean yes but what they did to her is meaner
nope, it's still way up high - I can type in it, but I can't move it. I can't ask hubby later, b/c then he'll know I've become addicted again!
5-8's, 10-7's, 29-6's, 49-5's, 78-4's
asgreen, that's weird. windows must be "remembering" where you put it, which it only does when you DON'T want it to!!
kitty's are meant to get fat as they get older... it's a rule.
kitties*
HI Book
Can you get rid of Toolbars and get to the top Asgreen?
howdee herin
hmmm, let me play around a bit.
or tried minimising yoour window?
Natts my kitty was kept in a caravan and her dirt box was mostly dirty and she was feed one or two satchels of shite food ever day and hardly had water. ANd yes this person has a dog of her own and now she has 2 kittys that i want to kidnap
In my years as a kitty-owner, I have had to put 2 down, give away 2, had 1 run away (followed the kids to school and got lost or run over, I'm afraid)... and 1 hung himself by accident
That is very sad
don't you mean kittynap?
ok, it's fixed
I am just so mad at this person. She has no concept of looking after pets.
Yes kiity naping
Clue for el7, anyone?
What was it Green?
I just shut a bunch of things down and then reopened it again. Thx for the help!
I wrote a story about that one (the one who hung himself). Maybe I'll post it to my profile one day.
way to go green, to get the better of windows is a joy 8-)
hello
EL plus item of clothing worn not pants, skirt or top
howdee carra!
hI Carra
el+ feminine apparel... (not skirt or slacks)
evening everyone ;-)
and now, I'm off....time to get the kids from religious school, and go full swing into dinner routine! :) But I'm LOVING the daylight!! :)
Natts that is sad. I am very carefull about the kitty. I am looking at buying a steam mop so i don't have to use chemicals
brb... printing stuff on the other computer
my kitty is fat shes almost 18lbs lol http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v353 /miss_carra/Animals/lexionback.jpg
Green take care i wish i could talk to you longer
Hi Gwen &Herin!
sorry herin - and I really wasn't paying attention to the cat conversation - I hope all is well though!
why do people have pets if all they want to do is abuse them? oh.
No its OK Green i mean in general
I miss you as your here in the AM when im sleeping
I love the daylight too!
Gwen cause some people are stupid. This is a person that says OH i don't ahve to fill the water bowl inside shes got one outside (that icky)
Carra Hes pretty.
i used to have lots of gerbils (back in the stone age) but i just didn't feel right keeping them in cages, pretty sure they weren't happy since they obviously kept trying to get out
I left fuggy with someone when I went to Canada for three and a half weeks. She didn't clean him and he lost so much weight. I was in tears after I got home with him.
herin, being stoopid is no excuse. there's always animal rescue, if one is in a position to call them
Katie if that was someone you trusted i would hunt them down and hurt them
is fuggy a cat?
Gwen Stupid in this case covers allot. When we move i will be spending the $16 a night and putting the cat in a cattery only. No dogs just cats. She hates dogs.
I must admit our friendship was never the same, although she honestly didn't know any better. No Gwen Fuggy is my hamster
any help with the el 7/32 please , thanx
But Katie how can you not know what to do. Its a hamster its not rocket science
i winder in the weight loss was due to being traumatized by not being around her familiar human, and had nothing to do with cleaning and stuff like that
Fuggy is 2 1/4 years old, the whole family is praying he will survive to the wedding, Mari wants him in once piece until after the honeymoon.
sandr, me too, clues didn't get me there el7?
el7, female senior citizen on a council. or E L + a ladies' long garment
(i wonder if, i meant)
thanx BDG
OK, OK thanks BDG
That's what I thought Herin, especially as he is the light of my life and I left loads of stuff for him to be fed and to clean his cage including bedding, sawdust and disinfectant. I had to buy a new cage because I couldn't get it clean.
8-D
bye everyone, must be off...have a good day/night
Gwen in all honesty he probably needed to lose weight, it was probably down to him not being spoilt rotten :-)
Bye Lynxxx
ALso what Gwen said. Fuggy could have lost weight because of stress but that is no excuse
Later Lynxx
I think he is quite good with stress, he lives in a house with 3 cats :-)
My kitty is lurking at my feet
my neighbor across the hall wne t into hospital for about 2-3 weeks, and her cat was an emotional wreck until she got home, even though three of us took good care of the cat during that time
Crumble is looking lovingly at H2B as he is eating, she normally shuns him!
Gwen i have to poke the cat food if someone else feeds her. So yes i understand
I think cats take it worse than most animals. We were away Friday night and Rhubarb was besides herself when we got back. Saturday night she was bouncing up and down on the bed waiting for me to get in and give her a cuddle
As you can tell the cats are as spoilt as the hamster.
Nor cute
i had a gerbil that was an emotional wreck for a time, long story, so gerbils have it as bad as we do, in that sense
cats are extremely intelligent... almost as intelligent as pigs, and certainly as intelligent as a toddler human.
but much furrier and cuter than a toddler!!!
Natts no disagreements there my cat has me wrapped around her paws
and as manipulative as a toddler I have found :-)
I don't know, Book... toddlers are my favourite-aged humans (perhaps that's why I'm such an animal lover)
Natts. NO i don't wanna why no don't Nope give me a baby any day
how many words today
wat i'm wondering is if they can breed miniature horses and dwarf hamsters and "angora" gerbiils, where are the miniature cats?? not THAT would be cute
171 hebbzy
ty
not-now
Book they are not cute
kelt
what, miniature cats?
toddlers are fascinating! they are learning sooo much. they walk and talk and explore and, and... one of my first jobs was in a daycare centre, and I looked after the toddlers (I was 17). I looked after the 3-7-y-olds too, but they were not near as much fun.
google Munchkin Cats
i am not convicned that toddlers are cute. curious, yes, but cute?
you should google hitler cats - honestly they are great. Crumble can get a hitler look at times
I never believed in the terrible twos (okay, my niece was a terror)... but, honestly, they were, and still are, my favourite
i have co 8, ho 8, ro 8, ga 8 - can anyone tell me what the 8 i'm missing is?
that's a short cat. i'm talking miniature, wherein all the proportions are about the same as a regular cat
seen the hitler cat page. VERY cute!
there's another co8... change one of the consonants... it's either table of co* in a book ... or competitions
aha! thanks lady!:)
you're welcome
Oh and Tea CUp dogs as an example are bad
I met a teacup dog once... it was very sweet
tea cup dogs? is that another miniature-type breed? (brb looking up teacup dog)
clues for the ho8 and ga8?
ho8 is an animal that does not have the kind of feet that a horse or goat has
High Blood Pressure, Thin bones. Bob the Vet had to put one down the other day as it broke its legs falling of a tabble
ga8 is someone who looks after your outdoor space, flowers and lawn and such
ah ty Lady
ah, teacup is not a breed but a size classification
great clues ty
you're welcome
yes... I suppose they need extra special care.
now I just need the ro8 :-)
YEp sorry
oh... just like the ho8... a house without a top
ro 8 is *very* similar to ho 8
tysm
could someone clue me the el 7 32 please
well, i still have work to do so i am cutting out for now. ty for all the clues, and the info on abnormally short cats LOL
el+lady's garment
thanks jean :o)
:-)

niceStid!

*poof*
HI Sitd
Natts. That is so sad about kitty.
brb need breaky
I know... and then Copper is the one who wandered off. You have now idea how much I loved that cat.
clue for ts words, please?
makes and made a disapproving noise, ylleria
no won
huh?
no wonder i didn't get that - i tend to think words should have vowels ;)
lol... generally they do.
i'm stuck on that disapproving noise
could I have clues for the ar5/14, ar6/27 and ar6/24 please
think of an elephant and take out the vowel
pl and past tense
ar--what you do with mouthwash minus the g,
singular, plural and past tense
Thanks jess
yw katie
did you get it mjms?
still workin....i'm new to this. isn't there supposed to be a table on the bottom that lists each letter and number of letters?
it only works for a while, mjms, when you are new... after a few weeks (?) it drops off, and you need to go "pro" to get those stats
oh ok thanks ladynatts
not a bad thing to go pro... only 14.95 for a lifetime... everyone you see here with picture icons is a "pro"
nocent
sorry sorry sorry, hope herin left some choc in the PB
katie? you are perilously close to the penalty box.
oh right... you ARE in the penalty box.
mjms... you can also get letter stats from lickety's babble clues - link under the grid
cool. thanks lady
I left the chocolate only i have eggs and mushrooms
to throw at penalty-ers?
Did you get the ts word yet?
How about the ag5?
like a young bird of prey, without the starting vowel
scuba, that was for you... were you looking for the ag5?
morning babble friends :)
PRESSSSSSSSIEEE
hi MRP!
No--I know the definition of ag5 and got it, but I'm stuck on ar6's. I have ar6/21, but not the others.
Yeahhhhh Mr P, how you doing?
(((hugs)))! missed you all over the weekend! how is everyone going?
eating then running
Mr Pres how are you today?
ar5.14, ar6.27 and ar6.24 are similar... think of what you do with mouthwash (but remove the first letter)
today am better... yesterday, slept all day! the weekend wiped me out. Plus, I am having phenergan now, so that makes me sleep all the time
eating your eggs and mushrooms?
Hugs
Yep
Lickety is bringing in my blankie today, so will be happy and comfy at nights
don't eat mushroom and egg together... especially with milk products.... makes for a bad case of candida
Yah for blankie
oh good, MrP... your lickety is sure a treasure
I am about to go to recipezaar and add a whole lot of stuff in for a friend who is on a diet - wheat and yeast free.
I have dairy free stuff Mr Press
gluten-free diet... my sister was (is?) on that.
Orgran make the BEST apple and cinnamon gluten free pancakes
yep, best for my friend, she is a huge cheese and dip lover... gorges on the stuff when she is hungry. and she isn't well
I am a huge cheese and dip lover too... I can't go a day without having cheese (someone once called me a cheese slut)
she came in the other night, complaining that she had to start buying a size up in pants and jeans... I put her on a diet that would be happy and healthy
http://tinyurl.com/26aq47 these are the ORgran products
LOL natts!! I haven't heard that before!!
thanks infern :)
OK--got the AR's. Thanks.

Thats ok thats what i love.
:( I WANT CHEESE
Toffuti is another awesome Tofu range

About an 8 here MR Pres.
size 6 in canada is size 8 here?
about 6 sizes small than me :-)
OH Canada um err
Is that an american size 6?? sorry about the questions, or a UK size
true... depends on where I'm buying my clothes. But sometimes, I'm lucky enough to find US-made clothes, where I can fit in a 6... Canada is more like an 8
so pissy that Designers For Target Zac P his clothes go up to a 14 im like wtf 16 people
could I have clues for the first two re 6/18 please
ah, ok... I am a size 2 in US clothing
my 18-y-o daugher is like a 3 (here)... probably a 1 in US sizes
You are a size 4?
Lady are you short?

Katie Came to my house to shake your healthy butt
I am 5' .... yes, I'm considered short :P

I think im about a European 41 (size 10/11) in shoes
Here looking for help again! Hope you are all having a good day.
sorry... no offence meant... I just meant you are all so tall.
Thanks Lady :-)
Amazonians thank you natts! LOL
I am 38/39 in shoes
Natts I don't like to mess with little people they can be mean
stuck on 46 words
When H2B, his brother and I turned up at his aunts she exclaimed "bloody hell it's the land of the giants"
Just need one word to finish.....I have tried everything but the answer I think....LE 4/5
i wear 11 in shoes
LOL... I'm never mean
LOL Katie.
especially little men!
Carra that must be hard if your a model?
short people = good leaning posts jk hah :)
Hi Gdine
Hey herin!
yah i have to wear shoes smaller.. alot
OK I most love you and leave you i got to go out and go to the gym then do other boring stuff
smallest ive worn was 8 eeek!
how i did it.. no idea
Anyone got a clue for LE 4/5??
I'm the gentlest, most patient and loving person ever... just ask my husband (because he is the most selfish, impatient person ever).
Angry little people are cool! if they jump up high enough, they can usually bite my ankles.
European 41 is a size 7 in the UK, I'm the same size herin
Tell them you need a 10
bye infern!
DO 4/5 the first one please
bye herin
size 41 is a size 10 in aus
Oh im a size 10 in aus so i am off on that one
ha ha thats about my waist
a person who do4, 5 before it
i cannot believe of7/40 is a word
I have a problem with little men, it's like I have personally stolen their height. I have a hard enough time being a women in a man's profession without them bringing their chip on their shoulder to meetings with them
Candice Olsen on Divine Design is always the tallest of all of them....interesting to see.
nats do 4 before it?
ok im goijng pooooof :(
I recently saw a woman in an airport whose head almost touched the door going into the jetway...tallest I've ever seen!
wow! poor lady, must be hard to get clothing
I can't imagine...but she stood straight & looked great!
walking tall is so important when you are tall, if you stoop you look shorter
MLF, the do4, 4 is the first one... it's the person who acts... do4,4 the other is the verb of do**
great photo gdine
Does anyone have LE 4/5??
i am sorry nat i misunderstood tyvm i go tit

Well friends...It's bedtime for me. Thank you for all the great company and clues today. Goodnight all...

Hi Allan

Hello, all.

jellen, just struck my that your handle is from your name likely. in my brain, i say it like yellen, like it were northern ore eastarn european.
of + exam
TY shirlock
It's my first and middle name blended.
got that re Une
so i just extrapolated :)
cr6, anyone?
dc, I think of your name as "shane". Is that correct?
it is.
Cool, got one right!
i say it with enough drawl to confuse some people, as it comes out with a broad vowel toward 'shine' if i'm not thinking, though.
You southerners!
i had a very strong, nasal drawl when i was young, kind of a blend of east VA and Appalachie
hi, guys - cr 6 is the first part of what a castle wall looks like - cr****lated
betty hatfield, the school libarian read poims to us chillun.
lol, dc
ty, jbv!
for that matter, mrs hatfield is still the libarian readin poims to the chilluns
yw,
she's been at that school for 43 years now.
I only lasted 4 years as a school librarian.
so in virginia it's "poims" - in Noo Yawk we read pomes
Whereas in Oklahoma, we have perfick diction.
in Boston, they couldn't hear the difference between picture and pitcher when i said them. The C in picture gets glottalized, and the t > ch. so they're different, if ou know what to listen for. LOL
used to be poims, now it's poems, with 2 syllables. Fort Belvore is now pronounced as spelled, Ft Belvoir.
how we talk has changed a lot hear in my lifetime. much more mid-atlantic than 30 years ago
yes, but what I want to know is - do you pronounce Washington with an /r/ before the sh? heard that a lot when I lived in DC
my current pet peeve is saying F for the TH sound... such as birfday
or strengf
no JBV NEVER pronounce it Warshington!!!!
or strinth
the only people i know who say it that way, JBV grew up in Maryland, in the Wheaton/Silver Spring area, or grew up in DC prior to 1950.
that's common where i grew up, monkey. down souf, birfday, etc.
yep, that fits with the people I knew....
dc, the only people i know who say it that way are from midwest
some there do to. So did my great-great aunt in Williamsburg.
hi all, can anyone clue me the el 7 please????
lil, it's pretty common all over - it's more a marker of socioeconomic class rather than geography
old woman, kaz
the soft th > f thing, yeah it is. In britain as well as down south.
I have el 7/32 - el + woman's garment
agreed, JBV
Greetings all. All I can say is you should try being an English born Australian living in the mid-west. "Say what"????
LOL jandy
LOL Jandy. i can imagine
re6 after 'release again or allow again', pls?
where I grew up it was / is Worshington an d Crik
i also need ro4 after the fish eggs, pls.
Hi all good to "see" you
This was a long time ago, but people used to just stand there with their mouths hanging open listening to your accent, then you'd have to repeat the whole thing to get them to listen to what you were actually saying.... I was reduced to pointing to the pictures at the Big C
good el clues, ty
Sorry, The Big M - Golden arches!
we call them runs or creeks, always have. and washington, with a being a dipthing au
Lol, Jandy
fireworks for me!
how afful, jandy, though i've had to do that in NYC and Boston sometimes myself, and my drawl ain't all that.
congrats, monkey!!!
congrats, lil*monkey

ar 5/14?
Hi Stid!
My scrabulous record is extremely consistent--lost every game, lol.
Need to find some non-wordies to play against!
is it true that there was a lawsuit from the company that makes scrabble for copyright violation?
lol stid, that's scrab balancing things coz feather and nrkii seem to trump me most times
no, there is talk they MIGHT try to take it offline, but I believe the public outcry is giving the makers of scrabulous some pause...
ar5/14 is what you do to get rid of sore throat perhaps, gar***

Jellen -- play me. I am almost as random at scrabble as I am at chess!

well, sort of, they are the ones most familiar now to us lol
Beth words that are used a lot in babble.
words that i sometimes think enable has made up, lol
i think my favorite babblet is ghat
Its usually a word that we dont use every day like Etui
or ennui, inia, ilea, etc
ennui is french for boredom, though
well fancy, don't you use etui every day herin
Andree i can't say i do. But i have learned a lot of words
I'm not that familiar with French words, but I'm learning :)
and it's in the edward gorey alphabet book: "N is for Neville, who died of ennui."
OH i like that Zabeth
if i used some of these words everyday everyone would think i was lossing my marbles
http://www.geocities.com/sunsetstrip/s tage/7535/gorey.html
loosing too
lol, my family is very reluctant to challenge me on words now (huge grin)
I can't loose my marbles My ex took them, literally
it's a lovely little alphabet about how all these poor children died. i swear i'm not usually this morbid.
that's too bad infernal, i love marbles
if we ever got divorced i'd try to get my husband's marbles....
alrighty then... I'm off back to bed... good luck all. and good night
