I hope somebody will read my icon's story
good evening all
good eve flosey happy babbling
Hi flosey
po7 #1 : cooking ware & high digit get mixed up
po7 #2 a feeling of something to come
oh Jilli, what a dreadful thing
just read your icon story
po7 #3 what a ship could be said to do moving place to place
isn't it sad!
indeed
oh jillibus what an awful thing to be going on in this day and age
Hi. Jill reading your story is one of the main reasons im not watching the Olympics
A little while ago our news carried a story of Chinese game parks that feed tigers live animals for tourist buses to watch - the tigers are so over fed that it takes them ages to kill the cow or whatever - they just play with it - like a cat and a mouse!! hideous
ugh!
They even gave the tourists live chickens and ducks to drop down a slot to the tigers - i had to leave the room
Give the kittys to Sigfred n Roy
herin i was more inclined to say drop a "park ranger" down the slot!!
hi everyone
Yes well that to
Hi Andree
just read your icon jilli, vile!!!
hi andree
good eve andree happy babbling
how many words in tonight's puzzle babblers?
Hi Groovy
good eve herin friend big hugs

oh... awesome icon pic, herin!
I'm glad people are reading it -- sort of! Not much we can do...
154 stubbs
154
thank you ladies
I always look and read your icon info Jilli!
froth
sorry
Arggh---I'm lost. "ti 7 - think of old western word for someone "
just lets all be glad we live in a place where people would protest such a thing and we can be a voice heard
thx stubbs!
thanks, stubbs, but it's the penalty box for you!
welcome :-(
its a compound word - starts with a metal finishes with something made out of metal lol
Lost again...."po7 #1 : cooking ware & high digit get mixed up" po** and p***?
omg jillibus... just read your profile to learn about the tigers.... how totally terrible!
Hugs Groovy. I just had a food emergency I forgot the 2 main ingredients for tea.
And thus i still wonder why China got the Olympics.
horsey words in the grid again tonite lol
we just had left over cold corned beef with baked potatoes cauli and peas
ha ha herin, milk and sugar
Can't imagine, herin -- but we shouldn't penalise the althletes
Well jilli maybe some of the athletes will visit some of these parks and zoos and then voice a protest to the whole watching world
kiwi, that sounds so good -- I'm hungry now and it's 11:21 pm here!
i WILL be watching the olympics
Jill im not saying that the atheletes should be punished im saying that the country should never have been choosen.
does anyone have both the d words? i have a de 4/5 cant see the other for looking
OH Ursh good thinking. THats a positive. We can just hope that people will be enlightened. PS i want to pet the kitty.
they're both de 4,5 kiwi
The one de word you're missing has a vowel in place of the consonant in the third position of the word you got.
Natts, it's unbelieveable -- and scroll back to ursh's comments (or go to the back log)

anyone found the thrid 8 yet?

listed before - fr, in, pr
8's are: fr, in, pr
I don't have any, just came in, what are the 8s please

Thanks Dan and Valie
Volley
that is the first one scuba; second looks like ship berth + what you camp in (herin's good clue) and 3rd po is ing of docking the boat
yw herin
I've got the second and third.
Is it a common word?
po7 #1 [teh bridge one] - cooking utensil & max digit in a tussle
dang why is there no tion
bet that would double grid size
because dr god thinks ing is enough for 1 grid
But it would make my life easier
lol
OK--finally got it. po*****. The first four letters are from the French (or Latin) and the max digit I still don't get, but I got the po word. I also used the fork part to get the answer. Thnx
yw
Can you enlighten me without giving it away. Does the word have to do with a digit on the hand or foot? Am I really lost? LOL
Am I from a different country....LOLOL.
sorry I didn't understand that one either
where are you scubadiver
I thought the second one was an omen
Well, in the U.S. But I've got a block...Arggghhhh.
scuba, the last 4 letters are what we call the prongs on a fork
that's the only one I got sigh...not getting the max digit tussle thingy
Yes, I know that, but the max digit thing is what got me. We also call that a **** on the fork in the US.
thx dee got that now
po 7/40... If I am a captain, I bring a huge cruise ship into po _ _ + ing...
Morning all. How about po7/32 overlapping a saucepan with a number before ten
i didn't get the digit connection either scaba
Well, we're just discussing that one!
I have the 3 po 7's but still trying to figure out herein's clue
That is why I mentioned it.
Thanx all..I'm off to bed. Thanks Andree and NDanlia, et al.

hi rolin
its a strange board when the first thing i se are the q's
hey andree
evening babblers
hey mrp
Hello mrp. How are you? Lickety said you should be home tomorrow. Great news.
Mr PRES i am lurking but i spoted you
hi mrp, hear you might go home tomorrow
hi and yes! Tomorrow is the target date! and then it will be home nursing. Surgeon asked to wait for further results, ie. wait for 3 months before any operation.
Dang Mr Pres to the wait but glad your home
I am relieved! Was not looking forward to hearing anything other than, "go home!"
I do believe 2 weeks in hospital is qu*** enough!
Yes i don't blame you
Mrp it just seems to go on and on but so pleased you are going home. Bet hubby and the ankle biters are too.
home is where your heart is
Andree, the cookies are all gone!! They were eating them 6 at a time! Am going to require the recipe
brb gotta cook
and thats not in hospital
Infern, when do you move again?? and please forward the addy to my email too
frances, it has been ongoing and I have had enough already, but just want to be home now with the nippers
no problem mrp, shortbread is easy once you have the right one, my whole family uses the same receipe
Your recipe is melting moments stuff!
.......and in4/4 the PB for mrp!
oops mrp
Which recipe do you use Andree? I always use the 2/4/6 recipe for shortbread.
sounds like a rhyme frances
Yes mr PRes will do when we have moved for safety reasons
250gm butter, 1/2 cup cornflour, 3/4 cup icing sugar, 1 and 3/4 cup flour [ i always double receipe]
Andree 2oz sugar 4oz butter and 6oz flour.
Andree can you put that in your Profile please
i have used many shortbread receipe[ fathers a scotsman] and never 1 without cornflour
Thats it Andree?
I must try your recipe Andree. Thank you.
and this one with icing sugar gives it the melting quality
ooooh you know what i just thought of??... yo-yos....mmmm
that is the secret ingredient!
sounds good that is all? need to go and poke stir fry
My 2/4/6 recipe was the one I learned at school.
frances..i still have the remnants of the cookery book i had in school.....cooking the australian way
frances it is very soft, cream butter and sugar and when rest added put in rolls in gladwrap in fridge for an hour then cut and bake
Rolin my MIL gave me a recipe for yo-yos many years ago in Australia and I cannot find it. Any chance of a copy please?
ti 6/24, anyone? and the recipe sounds wonderful
sure frances...ill have a look to see if i still have it...
ti6/24 when something is in this condition it is great.
ti 6 -- at the end of your finger and above your head
Thank you Andree and rolin
herin, you are dealing with someone who doesn't even know how to put something in her profile
and speaking of TIs, why isn't "tinpot" a word? Has no one ever heard of a tinpot dictatorship?
good point sam
I see I was one letter off--thanks babblerabble!
and troppo is a word
lol..oh no andree...too aussie...like hoon

~~~~waving back~~~~
urgrund n. - basis; primary principle, cause or factor.
ooooo found a great ending
......for a book sprite? LOL
lack of concentration is urgrund of missing words
lolol Frances... usually I already now the ending of a book before I start writing it.
yo ya all...;-}
Hi hodag.
hi ho!
hi ho..hi ho..its off to work we go
well in a little while
my books all have happy ending .. people are pleased to be done with them
hi Hodag
not me... I already did way too much this early morning. I deserve rest.
lol BabbleRabble!
HiFran ,sprite,rolin and lady! how is every one this morning???
lousy, but pretending to be upbeat. Fake it till you make it :)
Happier than yesterday. At least the sun is trying to show its face but the bad weather will be back this evening.
Oh whats wrong sprite? ;-(
HUgs sprite
Lol sprite.
aw, a bit of sun is a good thing! We are having storm and rain and hail.
We have had sun all week-end but cold temps.
lots of pain, ho... had a bad fall 2 days ago. But I slept tonight, so that is a plus. How are you?
We had that all day yesterday sprite.
I don't mind the cold. Let it freeze here with a bit of sun and I am a happy winter dutch-ess.
oh sprite.. what fall?
A big bear hug to you sprite;-)
so did we, Frances.
the sun helps regulates melatonin, a factor in SADs
my son left one of his stones lying on the tiled floor, at the bottom of the stairs. I stepped on it, coming down. The rest is painful history.
ouch... thanks ho, sweet :D
ooohh...ouch... you poor thing..
hi everyone! long day at work again :( doing a little better today :)
that is so true, BabbleRabble. I feel so much better in winter when there is frost and sun a lot, in stead of the eternal autumn we seem to be having the last couple of years. Have been looking into daylight lamps and that lamp that slowly glows up in the mornings to imitate sunrise.
hi ardilla! Great you are a little better.
Im sorry! I hope you didn't break any thing.I am good,getting ready for a injection in my back on Fri.so I am off all pain meds. until that is over.HI ardilla!
Hi Ardilla
argh ho, that is not easy. Will think of you :) And no, nothing broken, just badly strained and sprained.
i'm glad you didn't breaking anything, sprite. you gotta be careful. please don't make us worry
I hate to say it but some times a break is faster healing although Im glad you didn't break any thing!!;-}
yeah, that is what the doc said as well. But, she said optimistically, I am well prepared to suffer pain, I am trained to do so. Gotta love the woman, lol.
I had a birthday on Sat. maybe that is why the achs&pains are alittle more intense;-)
especially in the head region, ho? ;)
I think hugs are needed all round
My kitten is helping my type,excues us!
grouphug is a phantom today, lady :(
Hey kitty
lol, where is my amulet of catspeak...
How old is kitty?
yah, 4 7's done
TY,TY!

5 months I just adopted her on Fri.. She is black&white I named her "Zoe" and she is a real lover!! My little dog"Abby" isn't to happy with her yet but she'll get over it;-)
OH cutee

My cat sleeps on the b.f

YAH HIlary

the two are not mutually exclusive
ah, moment of glory, lady!

OK BR is a man of Mystery that settled
All your hard work paying off, lady!
It is we are moving soon so yah

I have not had a taste since 1983

Well, pet, all the more reason you can use your allowance for me! With the amount of cross-border flitting you're doing, I should be a happy woman!

HI Lilli!!!

i am trying to find one on freecycle
*still laughing*

Granny Carts are a staple shopping item of old ladies
don't know the proper word for it in SwissGerman either, I've heard it called "Rollwägeli" (rollercart), "Rolltäsche" (rollerbag), "iikaufsrolli" (grocery roller), or "Rolli" for short. BTW, in High German slang it's called a Fersen-Porsche (heel Porsche), guess to emphasize the granny image.
bye sprite
Thanks Babble

Hi Ardilla
2 x po7/32, peri
have the one that ends in fork,may I have a clue for the other please
not getting clue for qu5/7
help pls?
hello ardilla!
What's the number, ardilla?
peri, a feeling of impending doom...
Peri - po7.32 the other one ends in a canvas dwelling
Or camping with no cash!
thanks got it, thanks Jandy and lynxxx
qu5.7 rhymes with a quick splash of water -a squ***
Lynxxx, do you have to muzzle Stew for walks, or not if he's leashed?
ty lyn for the po clue
I like the longer days but it sure was dark out when I got up at 6 am
thanks lynxxx
I forgot you guys were changing, and that the flip was an hour earlier. I'm the same as you, peri, but I always end up having dinner at nine thirty for the first week or so after the change...
Jandy, no...he is through the GAPs adoption program and does not have to be muzzled, although must wear a special green collar and be on lead at all times. I think Vic & SA have got this exemption - so far
Oh that's cool. It always seems like an overkill (no pun intended) to me for what are basically placid, kind dogs. Though I think you would invent land skiing if he saw something he REALLY wanted! LOL!
clue for the H in the right column please
NM found it
Very true Jandy, happily he is a smaller size because he is very strong when he wants to be...I'd hate to have one that was 40+ kilos
bbl
I have a friend who was dragged on his face across a wet, frost oval one morning by his two German Shepherds who saw a terrier they fancied.
Bye peri
Tried to use his toes as brakes, but not very successful, apparently! Don't think the spoodle's up to that!
bye peri
You have a spoodle? gorgeous creatures, a lot of them around her
He is the easiest dog we've ever had. Not too little, not to big, about 25k and black. He's my favourite son...
Hi everyone. Some old friends of mine got a puppy from the pound, knowing that it's mother was a German Shepherd. It quickly became clear that the father had been a Russian Wolfhound. Tigger, as she was called, was utterly sweet, useless as a watchdog, but when she saw a squirrel in the park all bets were off and all one could to was let go of the leash or be dragged at high speed.
LOl! Great mental image, thanks Eva!
yw
hi eva. i could do with a dog like that to pull my wheelchair around! LOL!
Their house was robbed twice while they were out and think Tigger probably opened the door for them
And a squirrel on a stick for steering purposes, lilli!
Yes lillian, if you didn't mind where you ended up.
Hi Eva - what a combo!
good morning to all
great idea jandy.LOL!!
Now that's a brilliant idea Jandy.
hi mama
I wonder how you measure dog power, as opposed to horses...
Hi MaMa!
Hi Mama
tryin to get a few before my little charges wake up
in units of drool?
LOL!!
Ah, Eva, now this is where the spoodle would excel.... we could harness the spoodle spit, or spoodle droodle, as it is variously known!
I am just stuck at 56 words.... Grrr.
It's just like kids... he turns his face away and closes his eyes when he sees you approaching with a square of paper towel.
spoodle droodle sounds like something one should be able to market
If only.... it is a totally environmentally friendly, renewable resource. We never run out of it!
ewwwwwww but good be a goer!!
I got stuck about there, red, then I came good again.
spoodle droodle could be sold to the obsequious that run low on lickspittle
could even!
Okay, I'm liking the concept... and what a great excuse to get a few more spoodle puppies!
a friend and I once came up with a perfume to sell at Bloomingdales which would come in a very expensive crystal bottle and be called "Eau de chienne mouille(excuse my french spelling, it's been a long time". Bet it would have sold
A spoodle droodle farm.... yes, I can see it now. But they aren't much on living outside...
good morning
Hi carlee!
hi carlee
Hi Carlee
morning carlee
am I interested in doing this grid...or would i rather go work on my afghan?
hi carlee!!
You could sell anything in Bloomingdales as long as it wasn't cheap, eva!
okay, so what is the correct spelling for the french word for "damp"?
Depends hpw frustrated you like to feel Carlee
oh..its one of those grids...

Yeah, well, read the list of things I have to do yet today! (abridged version, see GT name)
Errr... you are home lori......
And in the grid! LOL!! There's no escape!
I monkeyed so many of the weird ones, and THAT trips me up. ***pours a stiff drink***
No MENSA for me today. Today is DENSA day. :(

LOL, I like it!!!!!!
That's the worst part carlee! I read it the first time, and just glazed over.....

One can only hope
coffee...more coffee...and I think a butter tart for breakfast????
Well, you'd better save a couple for me, carlee! Op 5/16 please. I CANNOT see it...
***Lori slithers back under her rock, pouting quietly over being stuck ALL THAT TIME over THAT word***
A butter tart!!??!! I remember sugar tart from Canada, but butter tart? You people know how to eat!

<POMPOM TWIRL> for lil...
i just had alka selter yesterday for a cold
You do love those alka seltzers, nance!

YAY lillian - darn - we won't be able to chat much since your already won this darn grid
What is alka seltzer actually for?
no but u have a good night
ty nance......we'll catch up later.....promise
Erm, the O words are doing me in and I only have one to go... the or6/18 please!
lil...u have to go to the PB>..u said a word a while back..i just found it
colds, hangovers (lol), upset stomachs, headaches (gosh, it must b a miracle drug) lol
or6/18 - look in a direction
When I was an English child, Alka Seltzer was what your mother gave you if you felt bilious. I quote.
or is eastern
Oh thanks, Haz and Lil!!
oh, ok carlee....is there lots of your cakes in there?
You're welcome.
i just noticed your little bare-bottomed nome (or is it knome?)
Apparently this alka seltzer is serious stuff, lol. never taken one..advil for headaches, nothing for the rest. works good enough.
that was to lillians - lol
the butter tarts.... yup... a put a dozen in there... they are biggies..I don't believe in dainty portions...
gnome even nance!!
OL

*then
Wtg...well done!!!!
54 t's????????? Gads. Medicate me STAT!
thanks carlee, i'm stuffing 1 in my mouth and running out the pb...got to go shopping before it rains
I think it used to finish me off and make me throw up, Uni, which probably then made me feel better! Her other cure was tea with brandy in. Heady stuff when you're six...
ty flask:-)

Have fun, lilli and thanks for your help

ok - until i am totally awake, i am going to play the grid and not talk - not doing too well in the chatting department today.
wow.. everyone got so qu5,16
thank you carlee. way to give a clue
clues for the 8s plz
welcome... I thought was rather appropriate
it was brilliant
fr8.. opp of back with gerund ending
fr8/65, in8/45,pr8/55
what a bunny does down a trail is ho8
oops that was a 7...my bad
hey guys any clues for the tr 7/28 and po 6/24 ( the last one)
quirt..i HAVE to figure out how to change my font size... I can't read the screen everything so tiny
ok..i'm shutting up now
thank you once again carlee
carlee, you need to go into your computer settings, to the monitor
thnk again carlee
if I change the properties...everything goes freaky stretched out LONG... and if I go to font...the font box and size is greyed out
*thanks
no, no, carlee - don't shut up - lol
carlee, try holding down ctrl and pressing + or - :)
well, I don't know enough, I just know I have changed my screen to have it bigger and it is not streched out.
oh crap I think I just found another word I used in chat a while ago... <smacking head off desk>
if you're using ie go to view >> text size, you can change it in there
i think this is a reocrd of 3 or is it 4 dropped words for me today
i don't have any friends listed on here - would anyone like to be my friend?
Clue for the in8 plz
its set as LARGE as I can go mia... if I go to what I used to have ( this is a new/used monitor ) its little teeny dots on my screen
hey guys any clues for the tr 7/28 and po 6/24 ( the last one)
not to t's cat...but knowing my luck today..i've used them ALL In chat <groaning>
lol carlee
tr7 - three sounds
you need to change your screen resolution maybe. the smaller the res, the bigger the size of the things on the screen. 800x600 is the smallest. try it on 1024x768 = just right click on your desktop, properties, settings :)
they are my last 2 maybe i will try again in the morning
oohggot it dan2 ty
Clue for the in8 plz
so i just need the alst po 6/24
np catep
and in the appearance tab you should have an option to change the font sizes
morning, all. We got five or six crates/boxes unpacked yesterday....
I did... the page goes super narrow and super stretched long.. looks like what we used to do with silly putty and the comice page
how do you get to the screen resolution?
good morning angel
its in display, properties and settings nance
I have a po6/24 carried (or converted to run on linux, if you want a geek clue)
try it on a different res then, you should be able to find one that will suit the size of the screen
hmm can try dan2
Clue for the in8 plz
i tried all that mia... I spent about 3 hours playing with it the other day..this is the ONLY res combo that is remotely tollerable... I just need a magnifying glass to read some of it
i don't have it mm
wow. that sucks then. what os are you running? and what size is the screen?
i thinki ahve that one if it can be clued as boats being in a dock or ****ed
its a 17 inch... xp
and my chat here.. is about 2mm high...
yep catep - I must not have the other po6
it was used for autocad...
carlee, is the problem with your video card, or maybe with your browser?
ok np am going to bed will try tomorrow
its probably a specific vid card... that my only thought...
nite cat
poping is too a word. Ask Rome!
this grid stinks...wonder if I should find a pic of lots of noseplugs?
is it just me, or do the T's seem endless? I got them all, finally.
I'm finishing these p's, and my torture is over.
i just started t's
ok...so..here is an interesting idea...( a diversion from the grid )
Put your car keys beside your bed at night. If you hear a noise outside your home or someone trying to get in your house, just press the panic button for your car. The alarm will be set off, and the horn will continue to sound until either you turn it off or the car battery dies.
( I got it from a driving instructor )
very clever, carlee
Nice idea, Carlee. Yes, the T's seem endless.
or... if u are shovelling driveway etc....carry keys...
hey lady
hey ankhorite
and u fall on ice..etc
ok..gone to watch gilmore girls for a bit with daughter..ttfn * poof*
Hiya, Nance. Bye, Carlee.
bye carlee - have a great day
bye carlee
clue for fo6 pls?
Hi, Ardi, don't have it.
sorry, me either ardilla
I found a website the other day about a woman who lost the use of her left hand in an accident as a child. She wrote a course on how to type with just one hand. I ordered it, since I use my right hand and only two fingers of my left hand to type.
Sounds like a good idea, Angel. Do you remember the name of hte site?
hi all, found fo6 past tense of what people do in wars
Yay, Peri, thanks!
YW
hey peri
yes, I have the name of the site, ankhorite. one second, I'll get it.
thanks peri
angel - do you have a problem with your hands?

Bonjour, Luc
Thanks, Lady, Thanks, Angel
yx Lady !
angel - do your have a problem with your hands, or is that just hwo you type?
tx* even
*how
i'm sorry. is that too personal a question to ask?
I have cerebral palsy, so I have brain damage in an area that affects the strength and flexibility of the muscles of my left arm, hand, and fingers.
yah, i got fr8!!!
hi TO
i'm sorry. I hope you get along ok.
nance...questions like that do not bother me at all. I was born with the CP...so it's no big deal.
I've gotten along quite well for 54 years. I don't plan to stop any time soon :)
you're so strong, angel! *hug*
I'm glad you found a program to help you work around the typing problem. Hope it works.
anyone have a clue for the first PO 7/32? I have the one that's P + either/** + what you sleep in when camping
i just didn't want to make you feel uncomfortable - people can ask the darnedest things - i get them about my back all the time.
you obviously do well with it as you're often among the first ones to finish every grid - bravo just the same (angel)
bbl

You'll have to tell us how it works out for you, Angel.
She should advertise it on po** sites!
How about the FO7, any clues?
Good heavens Jac.... whatever for ( may I ask ? )
I rememer doing that dance...do dances have names anymore?
Same as the one you just gave me, Liz.
Yeah, but only teens know them, Jan. Or club rats.
if they do jan, i don't know them - lol
Stopped off for something on the way to visit P's parents in Walsall, as I recall Karys.
Shelfield is my patch
hey lizmac
Well this gets better and better, I don't feel so left out now Jac.....everyone seemed to know someone from somewhere 'cept me !
Son had a girlfriend in Shelfield
I am stuck on the third qu... first qu5,16?
king and qu5/16
Karys - That's where P's family lives.
i have 2 qu 5/16's - do u ?
::: shoots self for sheer stupidity ::: I thought... I thought I had that, but clearly not! Txs, Montreal.
i have 4 qu5/16 and only 9 Qu words...
I shop in Walsall town centre sometimes, and we are thinking of going to Arbor Lights on Sat. night
:-) ankh
talking of named dances it always makes me laugh when we go to S.Carolina and they advertise the shag....which is something completely different in the UK!!!!! lol
Okay, clearly, I need coffee or something. Catch you all later! Thanks for the clues. :) P O O F !!
I'm puzzled by your clue, Ankorite, am I being a bit thick?!
later ankh
The Lights are good if you don't go every year.
Oh, Liz, it's like what bunnies do, but with FO to start instead of HO.
Not the 'Lights'...but the restaurant Jac
bye ank - hurry back
Oh riiiiight, I WAS being thick!
:: shags on out the door :: Txs, nance, see ya!
pusilanimous P's are pulverized
Oh, I thought you meant The Aboretum, Karys. LOL. Thought it was a bit early in the year.
lol !
that's an alliteration if i've ever seen one Angel...lol
hold on angel - let me get the dictionary our for your clue - lol
I bet P's parents know you, Karys. We'd have to talk offline about that, though.

Will do, Karys.

er...O red one, i believe...er...that you might be one day ahead in the icon theme...

nah - it's to inform YOU scarlet !!
yeah for bears and cats!!!
brb - baby girl has to go out
oh my.... I have been playing Babble for a year yesterday, didnt realize it had been that long since i joined
LOL. Luc... If not for the translation, I would be puzzling about sached conservant la fraicheur!! LOL
well nance, discovered babble in mid july last year and paid my dues in november...
I am a former tangleword-aholic.... found babble after they pulled tangleword from playsite.
i have played for about 4 months & intro'd my daughter to it & now both hooked
bfn have good day puppy is in my way to type on my lap
i'm qu** surprised scarlet that you get the 2 languages ! - we've been fighting for decades here to get some french on packages...and the battle continues...
later geenogre - have a nice day !
that surprises me, Luc... there's French on everything I buy.
Mostly everything has the Spanish, French and Italian translations side by side by side... 'bye, ogre!!
needs find a home:)
Lady, wouldn't it make sense that Canadians would have dual or triple language ingredient lists? Why is it not, Luc?
we get the occasional "english only" stuff or "english-chinese, or english-japanese"...
We get the Oriental languages on high-end products, and sometimes foods... but the E/F/S/I are fairly standard...
guess that's what you get for living in such a multicultural location, Luc...maybe? in Alberta, it's pretty red-necked, and everything has english and french.
Scarlet, you are right, especially after Trudeau made sure this was entrenched in the constitution - before that, everything was in english only here in Quebec - it was non-sensical ...and some of it is still around...
munching on mini wheats.. ah, Lady is here.. hello to all who joined while i was away..
Aloy... are they our "special" mini-wheats? LOL...
hello Aloy, care to share those mini wheats?
hello Aloyisius {{hugs}}
lol, Scarlet..
forgot to soak them
I'm having a blind moment... can't seem to see the in6 or in8
I am so happy that we are not living in New York now... Mr. Spitzer, it would seem, has his naughtiness on tape for all the world to see... I think he will have to resign and his blind, African American Lt. Gov. will have to take over... what a mess... AGAIN in our country...
a governor, no less...
What for me is equally nonsensical is a ban on signs in English

{Scarlet} top of the mornin' to ya! I am just fine. Thought I would take a few minutes to play before I go iron
and how are you this fine day?
aw, just throw the clothes in the dryer with a softener sheet, Mom.. voila, ironing is done
hi, all. My daughter just called. The baby is due October 20...she thought it would be due in December, and I thought in November.
My iron has gone on strike for the last three weeks... there have been little matters of a twice-flooded basement and some other little, ah... challenges! And, I am well, dear Mom!
Gosh, that moves the schedule up a tad, Angel! :-)
I wish that were the case, Aloy. But I like to iron.
great news angel !
oh Angel, that is wonderful news. Let her hold out til the 26 and the baby can be born on my birthday
Scarlet, there is nothing worse than having the basement flood. I am so sorry that it has happened not once but twice
We have many same-day birthdays here in BabbleLand, Mom... that would be a nice present!
a great present indeed

There are some really good cooks in here... makes me hungry, too!
Got it!~! The ti7... someone with a badge...like a sheriff in the Old West!
oh, the ti7 is a slang term for a cowboy
LOL... Aloy! Yours is better.

"Have more tea, will babble some more..." - hi all
i would like to get in ti6.24 shape so i can wear my th5.16 on the beach this summer. lol
Jump in, Luc! The water is wonderful!
welcome back montreal
Thank you, Ms. Aloy! :-)
hello everyone
wb montreal
but i forgot my suit...
hi again, luc
Kattie! How are you? I've missed you, dear.
hi again,carlee
hi carlee!
It's one of those days, Luc... it's cyberspace, so noone will know that you're wearing your jeans...
hiya carlee !!
i've been lying low for a few days...
hi Carlee!
but am good :)
not that kind of suit O red one ...lol
thx for the th 5/16 - but can't get the ti 6/24
Why, kat? ARe you sick? Oh, good! Do you have all the passport paperwork done?
well, whip those pompoms out, carlee.. i be done
LOL, Luc...I was trying to be discrete!! :-)
welcome back carlee
Yahoo, Yowza and Yippety for Aloy!! @@@
yeap... went to london.. did passport office... did fav food store..and did outlet mall
* passing red a sledge hammer*
i know scarlet :-)
when everything is perfect, it's in ti6 shape, nance
ti 6.24, nance... the ti* of the iceberg and the *** of the empire state building
u will never catch me in a th 5/16 - LOL
;) Luc.
<PURPLE POMPOM TWISTY TWIRL> for aloy
ahh, tyvm carlee! (-: love them pompoms
thank you aloy
why not nance..they actually quite comfortable..I even talked my mother in law into wearing them
TH 5/16s are a great invention.
no panty lines....
they take getting used to, but th5's are definitely fine
hafta use a lot of sunscreen Scarlet.. for me at least, lol
wtg Aloy !!
i second scarlet !
Once you start wearing them, there's no going back to the granny bloomers...s
LOL, Aloy...
exactly so, scarlet.
:-)
granny bloomers...lol...haven't heard that expression in a while...
so... what is new in babble land...?
besides who wears th5,16 and who does not...
i believe that if i did wear them i would be picking at my buttocks constantly - my daughter-in-law tried to get me to wear them. But i just can't stand that thought of it. at my age, i'm just thrilled that i can wear bikini under garments - lol
Angelsong said that her daughter found out that she was due in October rather than November or early December, kat.
here, we're recovering from friday's storm...
any other danes playing?
... and scarlet is making us all a delicious chicken dinner
like I said, nance.. they do take getting used to.. but I've discovered that they really are comfortable, and... no panty lines
nance... go to the mart of K and buy 5 cheap ones... wear them for 5 days..and after that... u can pitch if u hate... or..go buy nice ones....eaither way..its 5.00 invested in investment
yummy
how bad was it, luc?
how r u preparing it red?
u really have that much confidence, carlee, that i will like them?
Yes Dumbo25. I´m from Denmark
Yes I am... Aloy, I think I'll have to go buy more mozzarella... Chicken Parmesan with tons of Mozz and homemade sauce... garlic/parsley/parm tossed pasta on the side... also, garlic bread!
I find th---s cut you up like cheeswire. But they are very handy to pack for holidays 'cos you can use them for loads of things. Tying hair up in shower, tying round your suitcase handle as ID...Yes, I've done that!
probably, Dumbo.. they might just not be chatting
around 35 cms Lady - but the snowbanks vary between 3 and 6 feet high !!! - nowhere to put the stuff anymore...
ok, just curious
you do realize that you are 14 years younger than i am carlee?
oh my!
lol, hydra!
hmmm...sounds yummy red... and my mother in law is pushing 70..and SHE WEARS THEM
Hi, hydra!!
LOL hydra & hey
hi hydra and lol !
speaking of packing, i read a great idea... save all your holey underwear... and pack it.. as you go along, wear it and toss it, leaving room in your suitcase for your purchases!
now THAT is a good idea aloy
i wouldn't have a clue as to what size 5/16 to purchase
It's hi and bye from me. Glad I gave you a giggle! Must go back to my work now. Oh, anyone remember those bloomers in the 1960s that came down to your knees? Gd idea, Aloyisius. And take 2ndhand novels and leave them behind. And almost finished tubes of toothpaste.
th5's don't get holey
How on earth do we get on these weird subjects anyway? LOL... Or, Aloy, wrap it like a present and leave it on the back seat of your unlocked car...
bye hydri
when we went to Myrtle Beach last august, we didn't pack any running shoes - we bought them over there at much better prices...
Mine do, Natts, cos of all the other things I use them for. My undies have to multitask!
i lived in north myrtle beach 11 years
LOL hydra!
yeap..someone will have to let stid know about the th5 16 conversation later...
Now I'm really going. ***poof***
lol, lol... well, i reluctantly must go.. lots on the agenda today. Bye, dear Babblers.. see you next grid. (-:
bye hydra
later hydra
so..is everyone else hating today's grid?
later aloy
take care Aloy have a great day
Why, kat? Is she anti-th5/16?
bye bye hydra
carlee - i don't have a clue as to what size th 5/16 to purchase
tc aloy...
Until tomorrow, Aloy ! Be well.
bye aloy
no....she'd get a good laugh I think...
sized same as what u normally buy
I'm still laughing over the multitasking of Hydra's undies
LOL
**staying very qu5/16 on THAT remark**
ok - i will try them - i'll keep y'all posted - LOL
u know who will get a laugh about it?
hmm..I just got a pretty intense health alert in my e.mail....
what?
u do that nance... make sure u get low risse once...
how so, carlee?

Sweet kid, once he caught the "hang" of Babble, and he was over the moon for the MoreWords site...

anyway...just thought would let u know he's doing well
He's Chicago-based, right?
yes I always kind of enjoyed chatting with goldies
yeap he is
he's got no time for babble i guess kat ?
I appreciate that, kattie. Good to know about our stealth Babblers...
i asked earlier, but i don't recall if you responded to me or not. how long have y'all been members of babble?
Oct. 15, 2006, nance.
i answered you nance
i hate to ask but can someone break down the eq 6 having to do with a horse or horses please?
since July 07
1 year yesterday Nance
I think he still babbles quietly... there were a few babblers who found having an 11 year old... affected the tone of the chat..and got upset... so he went...shadow.. I guess
i'm back
Wow... happy anniversary, Nono! :-)
Hi, ardilla!
wb ardilla !

And WHAT a year this has been for you, kattie. {{hugs}}
hi mont, been around but missed yesterday - been sick

*pulling out anniversary Pompoms*
carlee, that's when i got my last tattoo while in amsterdam :)

<HAPPY BABBLE ANNIVERSARY POMPOM SHAKE> w00t w00t nono
lol - happy anniversary to all you babblers that have one or are having one soon
not too good yet - can't talk :)
last tattoo...as most recent..or latest....with more to come?
lol carlee - were u a cheerleader?
ty mont
got it
never...its my role here nance
sorry to hear that deb... at least you can babble some..
most recent, not sure if i'm getting anymore
One of my younger brothers (younger than the babbler you just mentioned, Carlee) still babbles occasionally, but never chats unless I am on as he feels too self-conscious and gets no interaction (unless someone who knows who he is is online).
i have three butterflies
well - a great job you are doing, too
i like having the kids who babble on... so..u can let your younger brother know if am on...will help..etc...
i think its cool when kids are into words...
hi there Uni ! how are thee ?
Whenever I visit, he gets into babble and finishes the grids (with expert) but tends to forget about it until I go back again. I am so proud of him for finishing these beasts!
Uni-dear!! How be thee?
Hey Lucien! I am...busy. Squeezing in babble between classes and grabbing some lunch
GMTA O red one
its very cool uni...
i do, too. but unless it is a site that requires a fee, some of them, both young & old, can really get nasty
There is an awful lot of "thee" in this chat, :)
classes going ok Uni ?
that's why i am enjoying this site so much
Art thou upset, Uni, at the choices of language? LOPL
i think we are trying to bring the quality of chat up from the th5,16 depths it sank to earlier
??
P?
Sometimes chat hits surprising lows...
lol scarlet and kat
To be... or not to be...
lol carlee
Nay, mine fine lady, thy art the apple of thine eyes and the sting in thy bee's stinger...
Hi Uni, hows the weather this morning?
hey debus
what is LOPL?
hi Uni
Ignore Debus, he's sitting next to me and being obnoxious. (Note: NOT another brother :)
Alas, Poor Yorick... I knew him well... Oh, Uni... sorry dear... I had a Bard Moment... L:OL
Hi nance.
lol Uni...for a second there, i thought i had red STRING...prob b/c of earlier conv.
hi Debus
read* even
hi debus...
Good day to everyone!
LOLOLOL, Luc!!\
Hmm, maybe I will read back later on. Hopefully that convo didn't involve fishnets!
LOPL please?
Good morning, Debus!
close uni....
no fishnets this time Uni...
I *think* it was just a typo, Nance
TH5/16s. Uni
o, ok - thanks
Ooohhh no. What are you fine people doing thinking about underwear?!
lol - we still discussing the th 5/16?
its in the GRID uni
LOL
it has gone full circle nance
you should read what hydra does with her undies...
hello
hi malte
LOL
To be accurate: I NEVER think of the flimsies...
hey malte
she makes luggage tags out of them.... go figure...
Hello, malte!! Welcome.
Is this a bad time to join the conversation?
i can't agree with you there scarlet...
Well, if we always discussed what was found in the grid, sometimes we would never get anywhere :)
AND ties her hair back with them, Uni.
cus red is a closet nudist ***SNICKER*** lobbing spit ball at red*
ok - back to this game - i still have 98 words to locate
jump right in dear hazel
I guess we didn't have to ask Esprit what she does with her th5s, since she babbles nude!
Nudity is the reason we can't have a babble convention, or be televised...
but nance is going to try wearing them....
Good day, Haz... and it is never a bad time for you!~
can't use the webcams then, can we?
It looks like I need to look back! Is this 'Recycle undies day?'
i don't see that as an obstacle at all...
LOL
Nance is wearing Hydras th5s?
for 5 days & then i will report the findings
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
i think we has given an appropriate "coles notes" version
But not the same pair. Please.
hydra has th5/16 that have holes in them !!!
fo 4/8 please?
Do you just have a th5, rather than a pair of th5s? Whatever the case, don't wear them for five days!
like j*** the baptist mlfan
the number after three
Bye-bye
I still laugh about your story of your mother's neighbor and her blazing declaration, Haz! LOL
salut malte
bye malte
Shall we have a th5,16 day? Everyone post photos of them?
ty for the 4/8 clue i couldnt find thaat lol
I know! She got three days (at least) out of hers, not sure whether she would have stretched to five.
ohh i should have remembered that word from previous grids i am so sorry thank you
ok carlee - should i or shouldn't i? i'm getting mixed reactions here
i don't own one Uni...
here in our neighbourhood..whenever any woman has a "landmark " birhtday...the other women sneak out VERY EARLY in the morning to decorate your front tree/ shrub etc..with bras....
but the idea sounds good...
I've heard that they're going out of fashion. Underpinnings are going to be sturdier in future.
lol
why not nance..if nothing else..u get some funky luggage tags and hair ties *giggle*
Lucien is too distracted by fishnets to think of th5s.
both are of a distracting nature for MOI...
lol hazel - sturdier ...re-lol
Why can't we go back to the 1800s and corsets?
is the fo 6 rekated to the 7?
you don't really mean that Uni do you ??
LOL carlee
Because we don't have maids to do the pulling of the strings.
starts lookin for the th5
no mlfan
Plus we like to breathe once in a while.
ty mont
good point haz...
another point haz...
i don't want to wear a corset. do y'all?
plus haz the strings arn't long enough
gl sadie
I do really mean it. I am pale and chubby and have curly hair. I would have been the queen. I shall remodel the corset to allow for breathing room. No worries, I have scientists on the technology
fo6 - think of song "I fo**** the law and the law won"
Yes, a god point, well made, as husband sometimes says.
i th ink it would be great fun to dress up in a period gown..with corset...etc
i have had ot in the past wear a brace or corset and i had to wear a cast as well in the same area beween my armpits and just below my waist
a good point, even.
NO corsets here! I have never wanted to be the Wasp Woman.... Oh, the humanity!
I would love to dress up...I should become a period model or something.
thank you montreal
see..that was the fun with bellydancing...
i like to breath too much for a corset
the costumes
yw
UNe Avante Garde?
Saveur de poulet! **snicker**
lol
No wasp women! These are altered for comfort! Come on now people, we are moving forward
a clue for pi6/24 please
i'm not sure if we are moving forward - look at the super-models...
pi6/24 - the women of babble pi6/24 the women who used to wear corsets
Grid? A GRID!? <----------- Oh.
u felt sorry for the kid who lost his icecream on the sidewalk bella
I dislike locating O words
looks for pitiful in grid
thanks
Basques are great! Good afternoon all .
ok..back to 1 more episode of gilmore.. then house work... enjoy the day all
super-models now have rules that they HAVE to weigh a certain amount...yet that certain amount is still less than starving people. There is somethign wrong in this world.
hey fm
Aha, FMitch, our underwear guru has arrived.
that's what i'm saying exactly Uni...
Bye carlee.
bye carlee - hagd
clue for ho6 and/or no6/30 pls?
hi FM !
later kat !
good evening everyone
i will think about that pi word while i am looking for others lol
ROFL underwear guruLOL
Monty, that is why we put me in charge :)
hey cat
bye carlee hi FM
There are lots of things wrong in this world. Will we be listing them today? Or is carleekat still preaching the Gospel of Th5/16?
hi orange !
Bye Carlee! Enjoy the girls
no6/30 is about as close to zero as you can get
hey vicuna
how are the triplets orange ??
bye all
Hello, all.
Hello monty and Haz dear, Ardilla Vi hello et al
ho6 - describes something sweetened with nectar of bees
he Vicuna
hi Haz
Hello Vicuna!
could someone clue the en6?
great montreal. off for their evening stroll with papa to visit grandparents
hi FMitch
en6 - is this a sufficient clue?
en6 is en6, that's it !
Hi Nono
Oh, good one, Haz. That is not a path of letters I would probably have followed without a nudge!
Then be sure to keep following that path, Vi - lots of them today.
Oh really? Thanks!
Oh yes, there's another now...
Hello, Vi, FMitch, OrangeCat and anyone I missed while I scooted up the lane for the mail!
You're welcome.
thanks
not getting no6/30 clue
Look at the people filing in...
Any letters from millionaires, Scarlet?
ardilla - it's all for no6
ard are you lookign for the 30 or the 24?
Uni , do get off my shoulders! Hi Scarlet
i need a clue for the 6/24
Nary a one, Haz.
no6/30 - another word for zero, or another way of saying nothing.
And speaking of millionaires, has poor BrokenStasis dared to show his face again?
i mean 6/30 oops
no 6/30
But, Uni is standing on the shoulders of the giants who brought them to greatness, FMitch!
No, Vi... not yet. LOL
Dear me, Scarlet, no reply after you sent all those begging letters? What are millionaires coming to, these days?
Oh, Hazel! Your George has been voted Hollywood's top bachelor! Why is he not confessing to his relationship with you?
You Laides will be luck if you see Jeff-with-a-G again, probably scared him half way to Timbuktoo
He's shy. It's one of his endearing qualities.
'Tis a shabby lot these days, Haz.
haz that is minus a cons right?
lol, Haz! You remind me of my best friend in high school. That was her explanation every time someone failed to ask me out: He's just shy. Despite any amount of evidence to the contrary!
some other babbler claimed she and GC were engaged ...
Good point monty
Scrabbler did that...I wonder if she knows he has shunned her too!
She's deluded.
The new Vanity Fair has Mr. Clooney as its cover man... covered in mud and still striking-looking, Haz.
lol hazel

Overworked too, Haz.

He's in this month's Woman and Home as well. That shy smile hides his love for me.
dont you mean delusional lol?
qu*** a few delusionnal people at times in BabbleLand...

what students are doing in a lecture
It is a tacit understanding, Haz...

hiya bubba !
ohhh...blue finned tuna pls

AHA! The muffin-top jeans again... LOL, Haz... worse, even...
lol Vi and haz
sorry ardilla, all out of tuna, would a small baracuda do?
It's just an image that doesn't bear thinking about too much.
how about a good old flounder ardilla ?

good morning all
In fact, not at all, Haz. I am too tender to consider that... LOL

thanks
po6/24 - a plant container, a pastry dish
ACK! Haz, the worst food on the planet...if prepared by Swanson... homemade is the only way to go.
I will remember to give Swanson's a miss if I ever encounter them.

I know - some wonderful names given to foods.
clue for the lo 4/5 please
And the Bubble and Squeak... what is that?
NEVER MIND
Thanks Haz, Fireworks
Well done, bubba!!
wtg bubba
Bubble and squeak is left over potato, onions, cabbage, possibly cheese as well?
Yay for bubba.

That sounds very good, Haz. No meat in it?
wtg bubba
No, it was probably a way of filling up the family with leftovers.
It still sounds good!

Cheese?!! left over cabbage and potato mixed together and fried.
yah, q's are done
Even better, FMitch!
Yes, cheese was a query in my mind.

It's the leftover veggies from the pot roast, all mashed up and fried, I thought.
i opened a flickr account, uploaded a few pix yesterday but i can't see them in my profile - what am i missing ? can someone help me ?

soory am back, was commanded by the door bell
c u l8ter Vi
hi all!
i'll repeat my question for FM - i opened a flickr account, uploaded a few pix yesterday but i can't see them in my profile - what am i missing ? can someone help me ?
hi TO !
monty have you filled in your flickr name in the appropriate box in your babble profile?
49 left
Hello TO
don't think so FM - will check tx - brb
... and when you put your picutres into Flickr did you make them public rather than private?
How are you TO?
your 1st guess was the one FM - ty - it works !! - i only put up 3 pix as a test and yes, i made them public - thank you so much !
Yaaaay!!!
are u still around flosey ?
I can see them :)
What a lovely one of you and your daughters you handsome thing you ;)
one of the pix has Eve, my 1st daughter, moi and Michèle, my 2nd one - "well FM...blushing furiously"
It's great "to see you"
i suppose so - it is a rare occurence - we simply imagine how people look...
am i imagining things FM or are you adding stuff to your PB pix ?
and sometime we can be so far off the mark!. Just wait till the Ladies return and see you! I have been adding things but not for a while, work has kept me away from that fun project.
i can't see you : (
refershing
work interfering with babble stuff again ? - what a world we live in i tell you...
It is SO unfair :)
lol

i just monkeyed the PI 5/18 and 6/33 words woohoo
Whys that TO???
yay mlfan !
incredible TO...
and amazingly mont i looked at the grid and thinking those words had ot be there as i recognized them lol
just too much work - boss had to leave so we must meet with him until he does.
Mon is the pi 6/30 related to another PI word?
are these pi words or pl words?
Watch the evening news from Detroit tonight. OUr wayward mayor, Kwami Kilpatrick, is giving the state of the city address at Orchestra Hall, where I usually do volunteer duty for the Symphony. PIcketers and protesters are expected in large numbers.
pi5/18 and pi6/33 are related - am still missing qu*** a few words mlfan

Oh my, the wind is really starting to bash things around again.
Grin, thanks monty

The forecasters are saying 80mph tops here>
The winds are beginning to build up again here as well
Fast food junk, dire economic climate and wind, dar America :)

I would TO but Haz would soon put a stop to that (but as she is not here).... lol

Hello greeny

ive just found this site but im stuck on rules -
past tense of the in6 flosey
do the letters have to be next to each other on the grid?
oh my, thanks caitlyn
Each succeeding letter must be adjacent to the previous one. Cannot use it twice in same word.
Welcome greeny if you look at the bottom of the grid angelsong hasa good page there and yes the letters must touch each other if you need any help just ask
thanks gwenski!
yw flosey
and caitlin
greenykit, click on the "Help" link just above for the basics, and "AngelSong's Babble page" among the green links below the grid for more info.
Hi Vic
And now, lunch is over and work beckons again. Bye.
Bye gwen
Hello, caitlyn, and everyone else.
bye gwenski
hi Vicuna and bye gwen
Do you realise greeny this game is very addictive!
Its very quiet here today everyone must have their heads in the grid
i m not doing very well!
Im sure you are
Hello all
Hi lynxxx

Well, there was extensive discussion of th5/16 underwear earlier, so mabe you should be grateful that it's qu5/16! (And Penalty Box for you, my dear!)
That's off to a good start, greenykit!
Hi Greeny - it takes a while to get into the swing of it. And this is a hard grid
There are some odd words here today so dont worry
Me??
Yes, you, young lady!
Hello all. A qu5 friendly grid today
Sorry !! I will go in now
=D
Hi mm
Hello, musicmom.
Hi Musicmom
Oh who left that bottle of wine in here? Mmmm nice
I'm glad it isn't a monster grid. My husband and I are tag teaming to stay home with Hannah - she is sick. He'll be home in about a bit and it will be my turn to go back to work
Whats wrong with her mm?
She has had the flu since Friday. Running a fever, chills, coughing. I really anticipated her being better by now.
Thats a shame I hope she gets better soon
All of our go to babysitters have children of their own so I can't call them. Greg stayed home this morning while I taught.
Thanks Cait. Me TOo
That's no fun. Hopefully it'll be over soon.
I'm really just praying I don't get it. I have missed so many classes this semester due to bad weather, I don't want to start missing due to illness.
Thank heavens for Babble - there is only so my Disney channel my brain can take.
Eats lots of fruit and get plenty of rest and hopefully you should be okay
And wash hands obsessively!
Yes I forgot that one Vic
I have been. I also have been washing everything completely
Yep I increased everyone else's vitamin intake.
Im happy today my hubby and I met 41 years ago today,,a landmark (and they said it wouldnt last) Can I come out of the PB now??
Hiya guys :) Kinda new here
Cait - that is terrific. I love to hear of timeless relationships
Of course you may! Congratulations!
Hello, Broken. *looks around nervously* I think it's safe at the moment.

I am stuck... te6 21 after the singer... ?
Hot ear syndrome Vi, got an ice pack?
Newsflash: Spitzer resigning, CNN just leaked it... not sure how much faith to put in that.
te6/21 - think of it as Brit spelling of the singer
Hiya Ankh

Thanks, Vicuna, I never would have gotten that.
Hiya, Mitch! Didn't see you.
Hello. Having trouble with the po's today. Clue for first po6/24, please?

Haha, you remembered, FM :D

loool Vi
It's atomic, flosey.
Oooooooh, I chose the right time to come back!
Uh, oh, it's Haz! =D
Oh heavens! now Haz, don't going showing yourself up again!
I must have some sort of homing instinct or something.

Me? Disgrace myself? Please!
Heya Haz :)
pr6 - those in favour of heavy weights.
Don't worry green, just enjoy the word hunt

Hello Geoff. I'm going to be good today.
Bye, caitlyn!
*starts stopwatch*
:x Haha, it was gettin' pretty crazy yesterday, haha :)
heavy weights? I don't get it
as in a big measure of wight
Pr6 - Oh, 2,000 lbs or so
weight, sorry
pr6 is a neutral particle in an atom
Oh, that word! Darn. Have that.
The first three letters are for/in favour of, the last three are heavy.
I need the pr7, and the pr8...
*sits next to Vi watching the second hand*
*whispers* So far, so good...
pr7 is to do with impending doom
po7/32 - run together the French bridge and the fork prong
Thanks, Haz, Broken, Greeny
you may see it before a disaster
*whispers - I give it 2 mins 15 secs*
Ah, got the doom!
pr7/36 - what a woman may do to her beloved on 29 February, one letter different
pr8, 'an on-stage gadget' + 'not off' + past tense
pr8 - past tense of the romantic question - save for one letter
..Or what haz said XD
Yikes, those were tough, thank you!
Oh, whew. Already married. I was worried what opportunity I had missed on Feb. 29.
*pssst Vi, did you see monty has put up his flickr pic*
Sadie Hawkins Day.
Not fishnets?

(No! Earlier he was complaining that he couldn't get it to work! I'll have to check it out!)

Sitting on hands. It's left them feeling strange.
Switch it off Vi, I can't take the excitement! See you later :)
lol Haz, hows the glittery one today?
She's snoring, having consumed her meal in double quick time. I think she's happy.
Alls well in her doggy world by the sound of it. Is S getting called out much now with lambing?
He is working tonight so we'll see what happens.

What was her reaction - do we know?
with definite overtone of the qu5. No idea and I haven't seen Ata to find out :(
dc is going to be done soon, can't wait to see that one!
Hmmm, she's been lying low in the log. A male Barbara... the mind boggles.
I'm here!
Yay, Hi Ata

Haz, I saw on TV yesterday that GC was engaged but it was just a rumor. Do you know anything about that
Hello peri!
Oh Haz, are you keeping a deep dark secret?
peri, a lot of these statements are made to satisfy the press. The truth has to be kept under wraps.
:-)

And don't let Scrabbler persuade you that she's his fiancee.
I won't Haz
in6 - add a particular sort of law suit/dessert, then past tense for in8
Thanks peri. Just nod knowingly when she says anything about her George.
law suit/dessert? that might take me a while to figure out!

nope, no natiann on dA now
dessert - a lovely many layered cake
you may want to bite back that re****, ylleria

Just testing the boundaries, FM. Just about George?

Haz - I don't get the clue for the en6/30.
Shhhhh yes, Im just rying to protect you both, um you!

hi nance!
hi lady!
pi5/18 - don't get in a fit of pi5/18 if you can't find the word
whew - finally got that en6. thanks.

it seems that ata is pi5'd (pi6) that she didn't know about my dog.
LOL. He desrves Babblers admiration!
Sigh of relief, Sandie.
lol - this seems to be a funny day in babbleland
he's been on my icon once or twice... back when we had "tie" day, I put a necktie on him and took a photo.
Ata does one have to be a member to view on deviant?
put him up again ... go on ... go on ... please? a recent one?
Most days are funny in babbleland, although some days are more peculiar than funny. But it usually provides some laughs.
lol, there aren't any sss
let's see....

Bye Lady
Okay, pr8 - begin with pr7 (the 8 is the past tense). Think of what women are allowed to do on 29 February. Change the s in the word for another consonant.
good clue!
OR add the first number to the preceding rugby position (pr4/6)
Thank you!
perfect ty haz
You're welcome.
Thank you very much, Haz. That was wearing me out.
I'm glad it helped, Scarlet.
*whew*
Miss Scarlet, greetings :)
And to thee, Ms. FMitch! :)
evening everyone
I know what monty looks like!!
Hello, katieW!
Ah, hello katie.
Hi katie!
hiya katieW
Oh yes, he's put his pic into the profile, hasn't he? I haven't looked yet.
Oh, my... Fmitch! Fedora, beard and NO beret, one would guess!
hi again all...
I think a fedora would suit him
Did you help him with his Flikr account, FM? Hello, kattie.
hmmm. He doesn't look very diabolique. perhaps the beret is needed
who r we discussing?
It just needed a bit of tweaking
( sounds like luc???)
Lucien, kat.
as I thought... so....can anyone bare to handle me gretzing YET again?
Kvetch away, kattie.
gretzing?
hiya carleekat
go for it carlee so long as it has nothing to do with th5
so..accident happened sept 16..2007... and we have been all along paying disability ins on car....since we baought it...
**giggle*
I've taken a look at montreal. He is as I imagined. *smug*
Okay...
and...as of today..STILL making car payments every 2 weeks
welcome back carlee
ohhhhhhhh sheesh i just figured out what th 5 y'all are talkin about
lol
Still humming 'Someth5 in the way she moves...'
Lol I just got the th from the chat, I think that means my mind works the same way as yours :-)
and...I have jump through ins hoops... and done THEIR leg work... and... as of today..they throw into the mix ( suddenly ) they want a tox report... cus NOW they want to prove hubby at 10 am on a sun with our son was either piss drunk or stoned...
( we still on the th5, 16???? )
ack ty haz now i will be all day also lolol
NO!!! after all this time carlee thats rediculous!
well I was carlee ;-)
It's a CYA thing from insurance companies, kattie... I'm sure K will submit whatever they need through his doctors... it's outrageous!
i LOST IT... the officer and paramedics on the scene...could tell he was lucid etc...NO TOX tests taken
I've only just started FM so I've only just got it
there was NEVER a tox taken...
there are several letters with many words, and they are difficult for me to locate - grrrrrrrrrrr
Just when things seem to be getting a touch normalized, there's another spanner in the works.
There had to be blood tests for his oxygen levels, etc., kat... are those not permitted to submit for evidence?
AND... they were requesting ALL this time from WRONG hospital... one he was not admitted to until 12 HOURS AFTER accident...IF..there was tox done there...whatever "could" have been in system would be gone...
lol katie, was referring back to convos much earlier in the day. Sounds like they are grasping at straws!
that was 12 hours later
**Banging my head on the wall for kattie's sake**
he never lost consciousness..had NO drugs administered until he REACHED london..12 hours AFTER...
all they did was administer saline for hydration.... as they knew would be undergoing surgery
they left all screens etc to the larger more advanced hospital...as their equip etc....faster..better etc
Oh carlee I'm sorry this is the last thing you need
Will the automobile insurance company consider a statement from the attending doctors, kat?
bbl - going to play mah jongg connect to clear my mind - ta ta
Bye nance.
so..i LOST IT... screamed..cried....and for ONCE the dramitc hysteric female thing ..worked...and agent wnet to manager...they are pushing thorugh benefits..at LONG last
later nance
did everyone go to the list early today (hopeful of a positive answer)
Bye nance
only took them 6.5 months...
hysterical female thing shouldn't work, but it really does when necessary
I don't blame you carlee after everything thats happened
LOL... kattie, I cannot envision you acting like that... if it worked, brava! Oscar.
Isn't it so frustrating that being reasonable isn't enough sometimes
haven't gone to the list yet, katie :P
I started WITH list... and I stillhave 56 to find..mind I haven't been actively searching for many hours
( No oscar ....I just came unglued...my poor daughter feels so horrible...)
katie, I have 34 left, and listed at 100... it isn't making sense to me today. I am just not attuned to it.
**passing out more of the purple crayons**
I decided I already had too many grey haird and didn't start the grid at all.
Katie, I didn't go particularly early to the list but it was helpful in filling in the gaps.
Kat... this has been coming for a very long time... you have had to carry the most of this burden, dealing with banks, insurance, hospitals, doctors, therapists... ad nauseum.
FMitch is just a big chicken.
When I lost it with a major shop over here about non delivery of my furniture they put me on the escalation team and it was sorted in an hour. I had spent 2 months being reasonable and sleeping on the floor, I did point out that their policy wasn't good enough
red.. I really want off this ride...
I know honey.
{{{{Hugs to carlee}}}}
At least Im corn fed and free range, actually more of a broilder as my laying days are over.
((carlee))
going to try to carry on without the list till at least half way
how do you sleep then?
ok..done griping..thanks...
on a perch
Who can we find to criticise freely so as to cheer carlee up? Who deserves a good kick in the pants?
fm the parakeet
jordan, always
i'm ok haz... I just needed to vent...at least as of tomorrow the cq will be in the mail
Elliot Spitzer, Haz.
Yes, but she's not so applicable for across the pond. And Elliot Spitzer I don't know.
oh boy...ok..someone explain THAT to me..I haven't been following it
Let's talk about yet another man in power who decided that his pants don't have to stay on.
Budget day tomorrow, can we save some kicking for that please
BRB need tea
elliot has first hand knowledge of illegal th5,16's
that ALL i know
He is the governor of New York State, Haz, and the FBI caught him in a sting using high-priced prostitutes for $5,500 an hour.
Lol scarlet, I knew nothing about him until the news yesterday. If you are behaving that badly why play the moral card so strongly I really don't understand the mentality of it!
( as I said....first hand knowledge of th5,16 )
He HAS to resign!
That had to put a de4/5 in his bank account.
hi im new
someone can tell me how to get rid of mice in one's ceiling. that's husband's latest
The thing is... Katie... he was know as the NY prosecutor who was the strict Law and Order guy... so above the fray... and his poor wife had to stand alongside him when he apologized....
Scarlet are we assuming he has a sense of moral responsibility
and..i heard he paid to have her travel on train from new york to washington..which has something to do with crossing across state lines for the purpose of illegal..so is not state..is federal
I'd have killed him, there and then and took my chance with justice!!
Mice in the ceiling? Mousetraps? Any evidence other than imagination?
apparently there was a noise
Are you sure they are in the ceiling ata?
That is the Sullivan Law, kat... importing females across the state line for immoral purposes...
Hello moomin. I thought I had seen your name before?
mouse traps... and rat poison ...
The candidates for kicking are numerous. There are 435 in the US Congress. Diogenes could a decade their without respite.
Mann Act
( I did catch snatches of it... )
could spend
husband says they are in the ceiling, therefore they must be
Ah well. A noise. I'd demand more evidence than that. I'd say it's permissible to phone CSI and get them to come. The New York men are the prettiest.
I thought the Mann Act was for underaged girls... either way, that dog should crawl under a rock. His Lt. Governor, a blind African American man, would be only the second African American governor in the U.S.A.
Hmmmmmm not wishing to question husbands expertise but how does he know? I'd want more than H2Bs 'sure' before we pulled up boards to put in traps!
Hello BabbleRabble - you are without country this afternoon?
but I get pestered (haha) every 4 hours by phone to see what I've done about them
hru all
Tell him you will phone the council. They can send someone out to check although they will charge for it.
Hello, moormin!
anyway... i haven't been following it that much... ok..off to make a dump dessert with missie..then finish getting dinner ready... back in a bit..thanks again all {{HUGZ}}
yes, in view of recent votes, I am philip nolan
Better yet, get HIM to phone the council instead of you :-)
Ah Ata for once hub might be right, Mum said mice stepDad say don't be stupid but there were mice in the roof at their place.
Send Sily up there?
The Man Without A Country... right here in Babble!
Hugs back, kat.
Roof I can understand, ceiling is much more difficult
the Mann Act prohibits transportation of people across state lines with the intent to commit prostitution.
Ata, do you have pest control companies in town? You might want to call them, and have them deal with it.
Not if they are between floorboards katie
one last kick at the can. all snoozing happily here
yes, ceiling is interesting. especially seeing as we have foot thick flint walls ...
There you have it, BR-r... yet another dark day in American politics.
We still have a mouse in the garage but I can't be bothered to do anything about it, cats could be the answer but he's not bothering anyone (except H2B)
and the only entrance points being the front door and a ventilation thing 2 floors up
They may have gained entrace by gnawing away some walls, Ata.
Hello Orange - a bright spot in your day, I'm sure.
Mums had come in via upper story access
bbl dinner :-)
Later, katie1
No little mice ladders perched up at the side of the house? Ropes hanging from upper storey windows?
You're lucky they are not squirrells as they roll their nuts all over the place.
if they got through foot thick flint walls, they are better than the Sky installer who broke 3 drill bits trying to get through LOL
mice are accomplished pole vaulters
day is almost done here. i'm not looking forward to next week. my husband has to go away for work so i'll be on my own mostly
ahhh maybe I just need to take the poles away
Maybe they're circus mice and they balanced on each other's shoulders.
Will you have any help with the triplets then, Orange?
That's not so good, Orange, but you can look forward to him coming back.
hi im from england and cheerlead for bristol rovers
circus mice. trust me to have something different
What kind of team is that, moomin?
Hi moomin
You'll know them if you find them, Atalante, they'll have little costumes.
hello, moomin and may your time here bring you cheer
did anyone here have the stories about moomintroll?
his parents live nearby and my mother in law is super. this will be his first time away so the babies will be missing him
a crappy football team :P
it s in bristol in england there not that good though
What sport, moomin?
apparently the council will come out for £50 to check any "verminous premises"
Did they not get quite far in the FA cup?
Oh, just saw Ata's post.
Yes rolin!
Then, Atalante, £50 would be worth it to put his mind at rest.
oh cool... i couldnt remember whether they were an aussie thing or not
cheerleading scarlet
that's what I'm thinking
And his wife, too, Orange... LOL...you will be so busy that the time will fly.
It's good to have support like that, Orange.
Okay, moomin. Is there an age requirement for cheerleaders?
well im in a junior sqaud
rah rah rah sis cum bah ... throw them in a trash can hah hah hah
10 2 16 for me
I'm going to get this wrong now - Bristol Rovers is the team not at Ashton Gate, isn't it?
That means you have to be in top shape to be that athletic, moomin. Congratulations on making the squad.
yes
Well I've never seen you do that before BabbleR!
i used to live near ashton gate
Poetry in motion... that's our BR-r!!
agitate agitate force them into a miscue
and to manage to stay in the hammock too.
It's the dazzling pom-poms that carlee threw away that caught my eye, FMitch!
LOL
scarlet how old ru
Very, very old, moomin. I have grandchildren.
we aint got no flies on us ... we aint got no flies on us ... there may be flies on you .... but we aint got flies on us, HEY!
im 11
moomin, do be aware of the danger of giving away personal information on internet.
That is a wonderful age, moomin... but remember, there are some very scary sites on the inter-net...be very careful about what personal information you share with strangers.
i know i will be i promise
That's good. Have you tried doing the puzzle?
im not a stupid girl i like school to
Good! No more age talk. How did you find the Babble site?
yes its really hard
my mum told me
my mum is greenykit
Yes, but it is usually for the grown-ups... your mom plays Babbler, moomin?
*Babble* rather.
Ah yes, we met her today, not sure whether it was for the first time.
yes
Don't worry about finding all the words. Just see how many you can get and enjoy the search.
ok
I dont' know that name, moomin... this game is hard even for the grown-ups, and the best thing you can do for yourself is read, read, read. You will learn so much vocabulary that way!
well ive got 77 points so far
Okay... that is a really good start.
Yay moomin, well done
thanks
I'm back for 10 mins before I write the evening invitations - I was on strike yesterday but they do really need to be done!
Strike-breaker!!
Oh you have all our addresses then katie?
how do you get the pictures next to your name
Yep, as I said the other day I can't stand sulking for long, no will power
You have to pay for membership, moomin.
Lol FM
ohh stuf that
Then you can learn how to load an icon into that little box to the left of the chatlog.
Charming!
scarlet wil u be my friend
You don't HAVE to pay in order to play the game, but after two weeks some of the tile stats disappear.
I will be your friend, moomin, if you are respectful and proper... the way that our grown-up ladies are.
eeek! Scarlet!
*smug*
are u kidding?
MONKEY-Shines!!!
ok scarlet
respectful & proper?
Haz has every right to be **super-smug**
hahahahahahahahahaha
*snort*
That's good, moomin!! :-)
double snort
Atalante is smuggest of all.
I'll never catch up.
I nearly coughed my biscuit up jnm juhyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
of course not
Oh, so glad you said that.... I must return my borrowed cup of smug I took from Ata last week!!
ROFL!!!!
ok bye
Rhubarb wanted a chat!! It should have stopped at the up!

Hello Babble Land! Is the grid nice today?
hi muse!
*giggle* NO, mymuse!
Well, it's not the worst we've had, mymuse.
i like the grid today
Company is good though
Nor the friendliest.
Company is the best!
mixed reviews, lol, ok diving right in :)
yes Babble buddies are always the best :)
yes love chatting with the buddies!
babblers are always fun chatting with
Man. I don't know about the rest of you. But this grid was tough for me. FIREWORKS
yay pigeon!
Congrats pigeon
Congratulations pigeon. You've kept very qu%!
Wtg pigeonman :)
how's the weather there in Alaska pigeon?
Many days, it is akin to stream of consciousness after you've had a meal of seafood and lemon sherbet... the dreams get strange! Yay for pigeonman!!
qu5 that was supposed to be.
Hello Haz. I had my nose buried in the grid. Took me almost an hour to find the last 18.
Lil monkey. Beautiful weather. 35 above today.
*passing pigeonman a tissue for the word smudge on his nose*
bye evry one see u sson
Goodness, that shows dedication.
See you soon, moomin!!
sunny & beautiful here too in Norfolk, VA , in the 50s
Bye moomin.
bye moomin!1!!!!!! have fun cheering!
Luck to everyone. Gotta run.
Thank you, pigeon! Later.
Bye pigeon.
Good grief! I just found a word that has been tormenting me since I started... an easy, or6/18... I never find that word easily... and it is so normal.
Does anyone else become oblivious to certain words?
Atalante never finds that one either, she said so earlier.
I never find that word either, scarlet
Most of them lol
I rarely find niece without prompting.
thanks Scarlet! Usually it's one of the last ones I find especially when it twists back
Scarlet I was reading your chat with Moomin, you were so nice
ocean is my blind word
me too, ladyN.
oooooh a fellow babbler in the grid :)
a question for you good people....
Thank you all for your in-kind support! LOL.... Thank you, Deeha... I love children, and some are much easier to deal with than others. She was very sweet.
but shes not a word :(
yes she is, pi4
*refering to babbler in grid*
my husband, bless him, wants to pay for an "in memoriam" for my dad, who passed away 5 years ago coming up next week. I don't know what to write?
now wondering who you are thinking of lol
Oh I missed that one I saw lorip
aaah
Lady, where is the in memoriam to be published?
Lady, the joyful recollections, the special memories, the tender things that he, and he alone, did for you and the family... for starters.
well, that would take a tome... I was thinking more along the lines of a poem.
in the daily newspaper, haz
And are you limited as to space?
if you google in memorium, it actually comes up with some sites, yo might get some inspiration there?
one pays by the letter, yes
Lady, have you ever heard of "The Dash"?
lady, some people put a photo , the name, dates of birth & death, and a short message such as "We miss you"
It is a lovely poem that talks about what one does between the date of birth and the date of death... the dash between the two dates.
oh, I have heard of that, Scarlet! I think I got it in an e-mail once
I'd probably have a look at what is normal for the newspaper/region, then adapt to make it personal for you.
It is an old, old poem, Lady. Very inspiring.
Phone
oh look at me... now I'm getting all teary... God, how I miss that man!
Monkey, many people did that in our paper... from the grandchildren or the entire family. That is all you have to know, LadyNatts... You miss him. That means everything.
sniffle *passes Lady the tissues*
I miss Mother. Her anniversary is April 9, 2000.
I opened up the eulogy I wrote, thinking I could get something from there, and all I could think of was how, when he was alive, he asked me to write his eulogy - but that he wanted to read it first!
i still have my parents, but sometimes i miss my grandmother and my little kittycat Minnie *sniffle*
http://www.lindaslyrics.com/thedashpoe m.html
We have all had the richness of loss.
Wow...you're fairly amazing, FMitch... I haven't seen that in years! Thank you.
I think FM keeps google open permanently so that she can get these gems at the push of a button!
Maybe a photo and a few words that stand alone. "Loving. Curious. Generous. Dear to us all."
she probably has a direct, high-speed link to the site
You're welcome dear one. and now I must away as my eyes are tired from the screen
FMitch doesn't need google, she just knows these things.
NO, that's Atalante!!
Until later, FMitch!
ahh... I see, then.
tc FMitch
LOL Haz, Night night all and Happy babbling
Good night FMITch - I'll be following you soon as well.
It'll soon be time to help CSI....
Hotel Bablyon for me BBC2 *poof*
Is your favorite the New York or the Las Vegas group, Haz? I can't imagine you saying Miami...
my dad was more of a father to my 3 kids than theirs was. they (mom & dad) spent a lot of time at my house - had their own bedroom in the basement
I don't much like Miami, you're right. New York is probably my favourite.
CSI Las Vegas, of course - hi all !
hi again, luc.. how are you doing?
fine and you Lady ?
Hello montreal! You look as I imagined, all suave and sophisticated.
I like the New York and the Las Vegas groups as well, Haz! Hello, Lucien. I have had some reports about your image!
bad ones no doubt...
all morose now, but tears are drying
I read an article today about real-life women scenes of crimes officers. Apparently the TV programmes are over-glamourised. Who'd have thought it?
well thank you hazel :-)
why the tears lady ?
You're welcome. And now, I must leave you to the tendermercies of the babblers. Good night all!
I was at a session a couple of weeks ago... cops presenting... they despise those shows.
back again for a bit
No, not bad ones, Luc. Until another day, Haz! Be well... solve the mystery rapidly!
see you later dear hazel
If they'd only stop throwing in red herrings! Byeee!
hiya nance !
hey montreal
Luc, I was trying to come up with a few lines for an in memoriam for the 5th anniversary of my dad's death... got all teary missing him. I was very close to him.
hi eveyone!
Silly herrings! Hello, nance. Your daughters are just lovely, Lucien... and you look exactly the way I had "heard" you...
i only watch the CSI Las Vegas, preferably with D'onoffrio...
i had to run to the phone, and it looks like qu5 a few people ran in!
i'm going to try to concentrate - lol - first time for everything, right?
hello
back to find me last
34
montreal, i think you are mixed up, d'onofrio is on Law & Order
Find away, peri!
sorry to hear that Lady... but time is the great soother...
correct lill*monkey - CSI Las Vegas and Law/Order Criminal Intent are the 2 that i watch semi-regularly...
hi peri !
nice photos montreal!
I like Chris Noth just as much on CI.
tx lill*monkey !
i have a big crush on Chris Noth/ "Mr. Big"
Mr Noth is allright...i guess...
oh..i see we still on dude from new york...hehehe...
I never watched "Sex in the City", monkey.
( either did I red )
same here O red one, never did
brb - baby girl wants out
i only liked the episodes with Big
I guess we are just twins born in two seperate countries and by 20+ years, kat!
pretty much
last [po6/24 please
Lucien... I posted a bit back... your daughters are just lovely and you look exactly the way I had "heard you"... LOL
flower *** + pecan ***
yes, montreal, very beautiful & chic daughters
A dish made with dough and filled with chicken and peas and carrots, peri...
Lucien, ditto to what Scarlet said
YUM , considered in U.S. to be "comfort" food
It's been 5 years since you were taken away, and although the years have flown, you are still here with us every day, as our thoughts and dreams have shown. And while we may still cry over times gone by, you're still the greatest man we've ever known... What do you think?
Let's hear it for Lucien's daughters: HIp, hip, hooray!!
sorry scarlet, the chat moves at warp speed - tx for the compliment - the way we imagine how babblers look is sometime far diff. from reality...
Lovely, LadyNatts... it says everything.
oh that's beautiful , Lady!!!! Now I am tearing up

Luc, if you are helping out, do you have a clue for the to6/27 before the whipped cream?
to5 10
just e-mailed it away so hubby can make the arrangements for publishing. I added "Heaven is a better place with you there!" ... and his name and birth and death dates.
yes red, remove 1 of the double cons
Scarlet, misspell the whipped cream
Thank you very much! :-)
yw scarlet - dont have to5/10 holly
That sounds just right, LadyN... I hope that the publisher gets it perfect for you.
Thank you, too, Holly! I never heard of that word before today.
thanks anyhow, it's my last work
hey lori ann, you are in the grid!
TO 5/10 is the to4/4 with a duplicate vowel on the end.

Holly, there are only two to5/10 words...
Hi, Owl.
yw ylleria
i think you are looking for ru4,7 , ylleria... it means stomach folds
I mean the snazzy TO 5/10 word... To the to4.4 add the second vowel.
ok, I always go blind at the last word I have the snazzy dessert, but I'm missing the other
snazzy dessert word? you mean there is adessert i don't know?!
I feel your pain ( flash , Lady )
that's the to4, 4 with the double vowel at the end.
alright i give up may I please have a clue for fo 7/56
TO + A*e you trying to find it? And add the third vowel, twice
rhymes with what a bunny is do*** (gerund end)

Yahoo for Holly! I am closing in with just 128 to go---I just started the grid.
wtg holly - hi scrabs !
thanks, lady :)
ohhhhhhhhh ty ty i finally found it id have never thought that a word geez
fisticuffs? who says that? jeez....old people is my guess.
Hi, Scrabbler.
**looking for this silly non-word**
LOL evano
hey how goes it, nut?
Yay for Holly!! I just noticed! @@@
hiya nutty !
rotine
rotin
I am turning into a full-fledged curmudgeon.
I guess I am old then.
rotii
howdy all, it goes
what was that TO ?
careful, TO
damn
Hi, nuttness.
lol...
I am a proud New Yorker--Governor Eliot Spitzer is a great man.
OWL>... close your window!!
what??
has he resigned scrabs ?
indeed, scrabbler.... a great man
why, lady nat is hot
The whole world is talking about his indiscretions, Scrab... he will have to resign
ok I am back to find my last 20
He better resign!
honestly... this is the time of day when chat gets insane.
Hi, Une... another governor who can't stay zipped...
no5?
Go Periwinkle GO!
now scar - it doesn't mean anything, it's just paid companionship
oh! who's resigning? what indiscretions? i can only hope the answer is bush or cheney.
what's a few nights of mindless sex really ?
NY governor
Scarlet... they are men. Men high on power can't keep anything zipped. It's a drug, I tell you... It should be illegal.
No, a Democrat this time.
Insane, Lady? LOL, Owl... his poor wife yesterday... trying to look as though she did not care for any of the uproar... poor thing.
Haha, Owl--I like your term for it!
and at $1k - 5K per hour....
LOL... you guys are getting too snarky for me...
$5,500 an hour? An audience with God wouldn't cost that much!
well...don't worry, those hypocrite republicans will rush in to take advantage of it
what is snarky?
LOL Scarlet... I thought those were free?
if i were really bad i'd too bad to question my choice of career. but i'm not bad.
remember how Hillary looked while Bill's little problems became public ?
which ones, monty?
any help for the en 6/30 pls
LOL... Lady... my point exactly!
lol TO...
snarky is the best word ever ... describes mouthy children, nasty adults...
I do remember that, Luc... staunch, set, stiff-jawed...
'xactly scarlet...amazing actually...
oh to be the wife of a high-profile politician... not!
en6,30, this should be en6,30 for you to get the answer
or poor dina mcgreevey
Mr. Spitzer has to go not gently into that unhappy night...
I think worse for Dina McGreevy... she didn't have a clue...
good one bubba...
and didn't HE turn out to be a PIG...
Spitzer is an arrogant politican who has made a carrer of ruining peoples lives for the photo-op he gets in the papers. What goes around comes around
Just gay.
ha duh - nice clue bubba
heck i don't get it. yet.
see - : D
He was such a hypocrite when he was rounding up all the morally-challenged gamblers, prostitutes, bad guys and scufflaws...
en**** already!!
en6 is en6, that's it !
I'm with you Lady!!!
yes, en 6 of this subject!
See what you've done, Scrabbler? Proud New Yorker.. poor thing! EN !!
back again, went looking for icon since bears is one of my favorite themes. Unfortunately the program squashed my pic of TUNK, doesn't do him justice, lol
scufflaws...intersting word there...
I spelled it wrong, Luc... it should be scofflaws...
Half of the wall stret people he "rounded up", were instantly released once they were out of sight of the news cameras. He is a smug, amoral, egomanical type of person; who thought he could get away with the exact thing he was aresting people for.
still a coolish word
still an interesting word - not familiar with neither spellings scarlet...
hi All!! how is everyone?
Mymuse... I really, royally, screwed up the icon theme... it's supposed to be tigers and tomorrow's theme is bears... so, you and I are a day ahead!!
hey red!
damn... now I have to go get my income taxes done. appointment in 10 minutes
hi again red!
Hey, red!
hi TO...
hi mymuse and redturtle !!
i saw another idoit on tv this week nuzzling with bears.

The long F words are elduing me--fo7, fo6, fr8 and fr5---help please?
Three milks, red?
"throws scrabs a t-shirt picturing a red dragon"
thank you *gently curtsying*
scrabs - just don't go throwing anything back at him
yes. apparently in Miami, I can get quatros leches, but...
There are two fr5's.
Scarlet, I am pretending to be one of those screaming fans in the fr5 row at a concert, LOL.
; D
**How lovely the Qu5/16 of Purpleness is**
I'll get the mosh pit ready, Scrabbler!!!
will bid adieu, a demain
fr5 -- not in b??k but in fr***
"ahhh i thought it was for real there... for a second...sniff sniff"
bye, periwinkle.
fr9 is tricky, tricky tricky.
Oh, I have that fr5, I need the 2nd one.
I like that title Scarlet
Adieu, peri!!
bye all
à demain chère peri !
fo7 think of the rabbits movement, like the ho7, just with a f
But, but...it IS, Luc... if you want it to be...
montreal, maybe it's too late at night for my brain to work, but i just can't get the second part of your clue. maybe it's time for me to give up :s
thats it im changing my name to "Duh" some of these i look forever and they are so easy
:( dont' have accent marks on my keyboard
back to the grid
ok I am really going now
lol scarlet...
ah, got it now
bye peri...
did i miss a clue for the fr8 ?
**Waving to the Philidelphia Phurple Lady**
see ya peri
bye, all
fr8 is the gerund of the fr 5,16
Yes, DUH for me. I JUST saw the ING ending.
ok ylleria - 2nd part - brass instrument bugle-like
I'm waiting for an fr8 clue..I hear there's good money for it. LOL
It gets a real workout today, Scrabbler.
fr8 opp of back + gerund ending
yay TY bubba... now i need ONE MORE F
Add the gerund to the fr5/16, scuba
yeah, I got it, eventually montreal. I kept thinking nose? mind? doh!
OH gawd---my mind is lazy. The gerund made it stick right out.
fo6 please?
:-)
well again, another entertaining day in BabbleLand: it had everything from undies to tears to governors and high winds - what more can one ask for !
Hi Eilly
but it's time to go - happy babbling all
Yes--fo6 is also elusive. Is it a common word?
Hi bllmster
hello babblers!!
Bye Montreal, stay warm.
Yes, Luc---always entertaining!
Exactly, Luc... a potporri of madness...harmless and delightful! Have a lovely evening!
Hi Pink! and Billm
Hi Pink and Little Pink!
Hi, pinkhatlil and Bill.
f06 past tense of what pugilists do
boy, that ing ending really helps out the grid!
hey scrabbler and scarlet how goes it?
np ylleria - the end result is what counts - enjoy all - "POOF"
Aha, TY, Bubba!
It goes well, pinkie... how are you?
bye montreal!!
bye pink "ACTUAL POOF"
im ok, its been a to6 day.
Multiple poofings again!!
Sorry, pink... is it getting better now?
Monty can not help himself Scarlet.
88left
LOL, red... I know... and wouldn't change a hair on his beard for it!
Go Go Billm!
I have 78 left! difficult grid.
Does he suffer from poofus interuptus
it will, in time
Goodniht folks
It is one to5/18 grid!!
LOL Bubba...
night bill
Good night, bill. Be well.
there is wine in the grid today!
to 6/18, anyone?
bubba, that would be better than premature poofus
Dont have to6/18, unfortunately.
I'm looking up the definition of pugilist.
There is a medication for that
one who punches, scubadiver
pugilist is a boxer
TO + *** hangs in museums + t** after the number nine...
The second fr5 please?
LOL bubba... could it be.....poofagra?
Sorry. A** hangs in museums...
to6,18 to + consonant + number after nine
oh my ANOTHER fancy dessert
thanks, scarlet :)
No poofagra would result in multiple poofs
:-) ylleria!
Hi everyone
poofagra would result in a four hour poof
Hi, Mom... welcome back!
opps i said two words !
poofagra would be for those who can't leave, he probably needs a sedative for multiple poofs
Hi Scarlet, nice to see you again
Hi {{Lil*Monkey}}, yummy treats in the penalty box
You have missed a very broad-reaching number of topics, Mom!
hi {{{{mom}}}}}
i'm craving Reeese's cups, mom
I am sorry to have missed it, Scarlet
here you go, LilMonkey, fresh from the Hershey factory
Don't be, Mom.... some things should just remain a mystery! LOL
YUMMY
Hi Mom.
the second fr5 is the stuff on top of a beer
ok Scarlet, we will let sleeping dogs lie
Hi Scrabbler
Hi Mom!
oh now i'm so thirsty for a brewski
hi red!
hey mom
Hi Redturtle. What are you down to ... five weeks until you leave?
Hi Pinkhat
23 days... she'll be in Asheville on March 34th, MOM...
March 34th? that's an interesting day
LOL
WHAT mystery now?
it's like an extra leap day
wow, time has gone too fast. I missed a few weeks there. I wish there was a 34th day, it would give me some added time in the day
LOL, yes 23 days!!! I need verey uch to do some house cleaning.
I am here but lurking
Hi {{Carlee}}
March 34th, kattie.
herin!!!!!!
it sure has gone fast, Redturtle
y contract arrived yesterday in the mail, but still no license.
Well, looked at pugilist, and at boxing--can't find a po6 wrd that corresponds
HI to the lurking Herin
Mom, it didnt feel fast at all!!!
Pardon me--an fo6 word.
scuba, it is an fo word, what the boxer did inthe past...
Scarlet Don't be, Mom.... some things should just remain a mystery! LOL
hopefully it will arrive soon, Redturtle
Lurking as i have so much stuff to do and cant hide in the chat
oh scuba, that word is past tense of Friday Night fi***
(((((HERIN))))))
mar 34....was AFTER the mystery....
good morning herin
**snort**
Well, now, I am a little bit busy, and still recovering from the big weekend, so its not so bad, alost too much to do....
hey carlee
love your icon pic, herin
Oh--all of a sudden it popped out at me. Thanks!
boiiiiing
what ystery??
the mystery of March 34th
Oh, the wide-ranging topics, kattie... it would be really hard to make a literal synopsis of what we discussed... and make it palatable for family viewing...
hello pink...
There is a mystery?
I think it is the mystery of the chatlog
If you got the fo6, just change the first letter to an n for the no6
ok..I thought perhaps haz was hiding with her th5,16s
Lili that is Odin the tiger
the mystery of what topics we have discussed in the chat, carlee
**double snort, kattie**
how are you today herin?
th5,16... hmmmmm *scratching monkey head*
its been one of those days in babble land huh?...
who is Odin?
herin, that's a cool pic! Odin underwater!
WHERE"S MY MOMMY...red is snorting on me.....ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
Carlee, I understand there was a Mosh Pit earlier in babble...
**ANd charging hard, kat**
Lili Google Odin the tiger there is heaps of pics
why is scarlet "double" snorting???
What happened?
Yes, that was for Scrabbler who demanded that Luc take off his shirt and toss it to her.
a mosh pit..good grief....where was haz...napping?..into her afternoon sherry?...
LOL... he sure left in a hurry after that
OH that.
Hey, I was trying to boost Luc's ego after he got fireworks.
Haz left to solve CSI, and Scrabbler demanded Luc's shirt...
Scrabbler actually just asked for something, not a shirt in particular.
I think Scrabbler's plan worked...
THere is a singer on telly and shes is awesome its a pitty she looks like Paris Hilton and i can't look at her face without cracking up laughing
she may have fancied something else
so everyone hummed the entertainer...and...
fr5/18 please?

the foam on top of my beer, scrabs
fr + father and m***er
ok..WHAT is scrabs doing...fr 5/18?? what does that means scrabs?...what r u doing?

I just voted for Pomegranate Berry.

Nice one, Scrabbler.
I actually voted for dulce de leche....I Looove that flavor

I still can't believe the garden salad option!
Yerch.
What you SHOULD do, scuba
ou5, just take the f off of the fo6
Oh boy--another one right in front of me!
:-)
hi folks
I should go scuba diving!!!!!
Guess what I saw when I looked in my rearview window when leaving a shopping center today? Clue: I live in the country.
Hi Dorens
deer?
A moose? A white-tailed deer?
Hi Doren!
a deer?
Garden salad--sell, it could have carrots and tomatoes, both of which are sweet.
Did you see behind you?
Hi, Dorens!!
hello, back again, I should have stayed on strike!
LOl, katie.
Hi Katie, why is that?
hi mom, scrabs, scarlet, katie
Nope, a horse-drawn buggy with an Amish family! I had seen the Amish family shopping. They live about 15-18 miles southeast, so that is quite a buggy ride!
how cool, Scrabbler
not a lot of them up there are there? I mean, not like Lancaster PA
In Upper New York State? Beloved's brother just called from Myerstown, PA, and that town has many of them... I didn't know they were that far north, Scrabbler.
Once I drove to the Amish region, with my nephews, and visted their shops---baked goods, quilts, wooden products, etc. When I was a contry doc I cared for their kids---neat folks!
Hi Dorens.
hi red
I withdrew labour yesterday as there was a criticism of a spreadsheet I had done on the tasks for the wedding that was fine and I had been working from for months, H2B looked at it for the 1st time yesterday and made changes. the words "shove it" and "up" were used in the same sentence and I went on strike :-)
Scarlet, the Amaish are all over, though mostly I guess in PA, and Ohio...and Indiana, and well...all over.
They live in Cherry Creek/South Dayton/Leon, New York.
It sounds so odd though, from Scrabbler's neck of the woods...
I like your icon dorens
oh Katie, I bet you were ticked
Well, I need to think about going for a run...
the wedding isn't too far away is it? ( I am trying to remeber, is it May?)
really do not want to at all.
It's just that they can do it better so why didn't they do it in the first place!
Then, don't, red! LOL
I'mwith you Katie, Shove it is a good word touse.
lol, my husband didn't want any part of any of it. Phew!
Yes Mom at the start of May I have good days and stressy days :-)
Oh No Scarlet,I get togo...
I can imagine
Hang in thereKatie, it willall come out beautiful in the end!
thanks redturtle.... it is left over from Friday when it was a clue for the day (i adore lattes - drinking one now)
it will all work out
I know it will, but I really needed to vent after doing the evening invitations :-) Most of it is fun, honestly!
oh the invitations take so much time
Vent away Katie!
Thanks red :-)
yup! venting 'R" us!
I tell you this I am not wrapping the 100 chocolate bars on my own! We are doing them over Easter on the basis that we will have Easter Eggs to eat whilst we do it ;-)
oooohhh, chocolate bars .... wrap two, eat one, wrap two, eat one
We bought 18 extra mom, I think that should cover us :-) I've had to hide them in the garage so I don't eat them
how does that work? If I hide them, I know where they are. The mind is strong but the body is weak. 18 extra would not be enough
good thing you are disciplined
Don't forget there is a dress to fit in to and I always put on weight when i'm stressed. I have been tempted on occassion but have managed to stay strong
this is true. It would be helpful for the dress to fit
morning babble friends :)
good morning MrP, how are you doing?
Hey MrP. how are you?
Hi mrp, how are you?
{{{MrP}}}
Nice to see you again, mrp! Are you feeling better?
feeling better indeed, since they don't wake me for the 11pm - 12.30am treatment and 4.30am - 6.00am treatment... they have let me have my baby baxter bottles over 24 hour infusion.... *sigh* thank lordy lord!
welcomed news for sure.
Are you still hospitalized, mrp?
Gosh, it's been a long pull for you.
good to hear you still upbeat and happy!
am still in hospital, but have the opportunity to leave today at the earliest!
Lickety is desperate to have me home! Kids must be driving him nuts!! LOL
Oh that is good news MrP, is the pain any better?
that will be good.. I'm sure the kids will be thrilled
Lol I'm sure they have all missed you
pain is very well managed katie! and having 2 weeks of 'rest' has certainly improved the mental state
Yay Mr P gets togo home!!!!!
I am glad mrp you really needed the rest after the house move and everything
the surgeon is not going to do anything until June at this stage... hoping that things will get better between now and then. He made my day by saying no surgery for now
katie, when I get home, I will have to ebay half my stuff! LOL, and get ready for the grandiousis garage sale
MR pres Hello and anyone else i missed whilst doing stuff
excellent, MrP. I am sure you were very pleased
of course, I won't lift a finger! LOL
Help with both tr6-7 combos please?
hi infern :) !
hope you are going home today :)
I don't have many words so pardon my lack of cluing
at the halfway mark, need to do the dishes. Good to see you again, MrP., please take care of yourself. Hugs to all of you. bye for now

later mom
HI dorens/ Ok im lurking again
bye bye Dorens
bye mom! ((hugs))
bye mom! ((hugs))
{{MrP}} bye bye
oops, double entry.
another tr6 is past tense of a tr5/10 above it
Double excited mr preS?
I have that tr6, Doren. I don't know the Neptune one though.
and another is tr***c of cancer + a consonant
neptune doesn't hold a sword, he holds a tr**** ( i think)
it's also a moon of the planet neptune
I got the 2nd set, Doren, TY.
Tr 7 3 colours
Ok, now I got the other tr6.
TY, Lady!! TRs are done now.
i'm down to 38 listless, but don't think I canpull it off without
THat was a Babble rable clue
clue for last po 6/24? it's driving me crazy!
HI all you still here K.W
my last is a past tense of the 4/5 above it, doubt that it's the one you need
Hi all...
ylleria, do you have the past tense of a small horse?
jandy, yes. there is another one
hi jandy
Hi jandy
Oh yes, that would be one I don't have! Sorry!
hi diem and jandy
Hi Scrabbler, hi diem!
Hi Dorens!
another two, even
Oh Dorens, I just need a cuppa... that looks so good!
last po6 is a dinner item...compound word...what you cook in and dessert item
ah, thanks dan! :)
happy to pour one for you jandy, want cinnamon, nutmeg with it? (skim latte, actually)
yw ylleria
thanks dan, i needed that
yw2 dorens
Perfect! Using my free half hour to finish this puzzle rather than make and drink coffee!
TY, Dan
yw3 scrabbler...how are things?
Well, thanks from me too dan, but I think I should have had the coffee... dessert item, dessert item... I will get it in a minute and blush, I know!
Got it, and blushing!
I am so tired that I could go to bed right now, but it is 6:50 Pm and still light out.
yw jandy...i wouldn't blush, I saw that clue earlier, while HAVING one, and took 15 minutes to figure it out!
to6/27 please?
take a double out of the to7 after it scrab
like what you put on icecream sundaes, minus the double consonant
TY, Dan
That makes me feel better, dan! It's also not something we really have here... though a chicken one was something I loved when living in the US!
Hi all, I'm back for my final 47. It's been a busy day. Scrabbs - to6.27 is 'drinking alcohol to excess'.
no po6's down under?! I may have to put off my trip there
Hi Jac!
work calls...brb
For today's 'tiger' theme I'm using a pic of my own 'tiger', Tiggsey.:-)
Clue for pi6/30 and/or pi6/24 if you could, please! I think I have a mental blank about pi words...
Very scary, Jac...
you might be pi**** if you can't come up with the 6/24
pi6/24 = 'felt sorry for'.
Thanks, cherubs!
pi 6/30 builds off the 5/18 and 6/33
pi6/30 = pi5/18 + consonant. (pi5 = fit of... hissy fit)
well, is time for me to bid you adieu. Will be back shortly for some babble time
be well, mrp
need to bring about $12.00 with me for this game!! See you all soon ((hugs))
Oh, hello and goodbye mrp, so glad to hear things are improving for you!
Just need to go outside and check what latest banging noise was. (We have high winds with gusts up to 80mph here tonight.) Already rescued someone's recycling box and all the Carling Black Label cans that came out of it!:(
Have fun, jac... not...
Thanks Jac, got it!
Hi Jacula
clue for the first po7/32 please
I'm back. It was one of the local stray cats jumping off the trailer. I hope he finds somewhere to shelter tonight!
Batten down the cats...
night everyone, thanks for letting me vent :-)
Night katie... missed the venting, but sleep well!
Jacula---Callie was at the vet today for x-rays. She has arthritis in lower spine.
My cat is battened down, Jandy. LOL. Daren't bring the stray in. a) my cat hates him, and b) last time I brought him in we all got fleas!
N
Dorens, compound of bridge and fork end. If that makes sense
'Night Katie. I missed the venting, but I hope you feel better.
thanks jandy, it did
p's finally put to rest
hi Katie
Erk!!! Fleas!!! (Itching self to bits at thought...)
Scrabbs - Oh dear! Only to be expected at her age, I guess. Can anything be done? (Flossie's nearly 9 now.)
I have one p to go....po6/27 if anyone can help
She hs seemed weak in her hind legs, but not in pain. We started treatment with meloxicam, an antiinflammatory med.
Jandy - I did powder him! I also do our garden hedgehogs when I meet up with them.
po6 studying, as in po**** over a manuscript
it was raining hard on saturday here, in fact it was po*r***
Scrabbs - I wonder if that's what caused her 'dribbling' problem?
hey, dorens!
Hmmm..... intrigued by concept of rubbing flea powder into a hedgehog....
hey une!
Thanks, Dorens!
Silly Jandy! You just sprinkle it on. LOL
Yes, it probably is related. But as long as she is happy and comfortable I will keep her!
Just 12 T words to go!
Scrabbs - Glad to hear it. You'll know when 'the time' comes.
That's a relief, Jac... I had visions of you with the tweezers for hours afterwards!
Go Jandy! LOL I have 65, and I am thinking aboutgoing backtosleep.
I am working on the Ts too. I need help with the ti6's please.
hello everyone, anyone got an idea for both ni5
Hey red.... sleep is for the weak! Although am beginning to reform as part of my post-anaemia recovery, you'll be pleased to hear!
And guess what, folks? Mama Scrabbler is talking at me on the phone. She is giving me the play-by-play for her, my father, my nephews....
Jandy - I did once have to use tweezers on a tiny garden hedgehog. He fitted in the palm of my (gloved) hand and I had to get 13 ticks off him before they killed him.
ni + 2000 lbs
Aaahhhh...... poor baby!
heart medicine: ni***glycerine
Hi Wendy!
someday, scrabs, your mom and my mom can talk and we can babble inpeace :)
Scrabbs - LOL.
TY, Une!
clue for in6 please (hoping it will give me the 8 as well)
ye :-)
*yw
Now she is complaining about the cost of gasoline, but she hasn't driven in 20+ yrs.
Scrabs, ti6/24 what I am doing to my shoelaces...
Jandy, how are you feeling??
Hi Jandy!
in + to4/4
right, but we wouldn't want to take away the pleasure of complaining now, would we?
TY, Jandy
in6 = to wind or twist. in8 is past tense.
thanks unea
Really much better red, though doing nothing is a new experience for me! Iron and hg bordering on the bottom of the range, so that's a huge improvement
Any minute now she will start commenting on the Eliot Spitzer story.
just monkeyed it, thanks jac... fireworks
TY, Jacula.
congrats, dorens!
YW scrabs, don't have the other one myself!
Yay dorens!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Yahoooo Doren!
brb all
and just in time.... book club starts at 7:30. see y'all tomorrow
Bye, have fun, Doren.
hey, peeps
Well done, Dorens. BTW, you were inyesterday's grid. (I think it was y/day's)
See you dorens, thanks for the clues...
Hi Tyger
Great news--my 18 yr old nephew qu4 smoking recently.
Hi, Tyger.
hey, scrabs. still need clues? :)
yay!
oh, scrabs, that IS such great news
That's good, Scrabbs.
Hi tyger... it's your icon day!
The 2nd ti6 please?
My mother just told me that great news---I have been waiting for this day!
really, jandy?
Yay Jandy! Soon you'll be wanting to come running with me!
My oldest son gave it up about two years ago, Scrabbler and it was a huge relief to me. They just have to be ready to do it!
2nd ti6 is a compound word - very end + not bottom
That will be impressive, red, cause I haven't done that for ten years! Do you think it was just low iron? LOL!!!!!!!!!!
TY, Tyger!
yw :)
Thanks tyger!!!
yw too, jandy :D
Quite possibly jandy, any interest in coming to run in Utah with us in October???
I've got about a half hour I can sit here and clue. Dinner is cooking
I'll think about it... a lot... (can I lose 40 pounds, improve my CV fitness, become less prone to sunburn and most importantly, gain an interest in any occupation that makes me sweat between now and then, I wonder???)
How about if I cooked for you, red?
LOL Jandy,no real need for sunscreen!
I like food...
Alot.
Hey, me too, Red.
turtle, you're not alone! :)
Okay, you're on! I like cooking. A lot!
My daughter's in the Race For Life on 20th July. All sponsors gratefully accepted.
Interested in Seeing Moab?
Okay, 10 minutes before I go out and 10 T words to get. Head down and bun up...
As we would say....
go Jandy Go.
Oh, that was bum! Though buns would work for you guys!
there were a LOT of words real words in today's grid that were not in Enable
My mother is still going strong on the phone.
Go Scrabblersmom Go!
scrabs, you must be a champion multi-tasker to listen to her and do this at the same time :D
te6 please?
Yes, I can't not multitask. And with my mother, she does all of the talking and I just listen.
te6:add another vowel before the last letter in the preceding te5/10 (male voice)
TY, Tyger.
AFAIK, that's not a real word, but ... oh well :shrug:
yw
'lo all There was a great discussion here the other day about sleep apnea/snoring & all the costs & headaches of treatment. Then yesterday, the news had an atricle about a quick, effective 1x 10 min medical procedure - will post if anyone interested.
hey, nDan
yes, I'd love to hear about it. my son just had to switch from a CPAP to a BiPAP
Yes, please Dan. I am a migraineur and just started CPAP in Nov for sleep apnea---sleep is much improved.
Is this the palate surgery, Dan?
On NBC news yesterday 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.
Yes, I have heard of that surgery, Dan, and a local ENT MD has started advertising the procedure.
2nd qu5 please?
Hey Dan, I was there and it was a really interesting discussion! Wonder if they do it to dogs..
evening all!
Clue for to6/18 please
the thing about new surgeries is that it rarely pays to be an "early adopter" (adapting electronics lingo for meds)
hey, dan2
Hello another dan!
qu5 shush
hey everyone! =)
hey, lissa
Use the same phrase in medical, tyger!
Hi melissa
to6 ice cream add-in with no double cons
They got approval several years ago, so it's not brand-spanking new.
Duh on that qu5. Toss the fish at me.
Sorry dan, it's the 6/18 I'm after, I think that's the 6/27??
that center has a web page, and saw several other good web articles.
to6/18: Bavarian pastry + camel
op5/14?
op5/14: PT of choose
op5/14 chose
op 5 14 picked a choice
Thanks tyger!
yw, jandy
Sorry for disappearing. I just realised I hadn't set my donation up on my daughter's Race for Life page. It's for Cancer Research and is a women only event where you walk, jog or run 5Km.
pr7 please?
gah fish for me - wrong T
Rats, going to have to go out with 5 to go!!! If only I didn't love chatting with you guys so much!
pr7: change last cons from ask to marry
pr 7 if nt added to end - is person supporting something
Bye all! Talk soon!
later, jandy
'Bye Jandy.
bye
I actually figured out that clue, Tyger, but I read it 3 times. TY.
21 to go...I am so ready for bed.
yw :D - I thought it would be the fastest to be understood
heavy day today, scrabs?
42 to go here so I'd better dive in. S P L A S H !
no moms demanding antibiotics, I hope?
ti6/24 the second one?
I did not sleep well last night. And, yes, a very bad day----a 15 yr old boy to pray for.
ti 6 24 the type of shape you want to be in
ti6 super duper, swell, perfect!
2nd ti6/24 pointed end + not bottom
what's his prob & first name?
you are all ti6 cluers!
thx, dan2
:D :D
My heart is heavy for this boy and family, as they haven't been told yet: metastatic bone cancer--lungs full of tumors. Surgery is next Tuesday. His name is Benjamin.
must run, back for final 2 in a while
oh, how terrible, scrabs!
will be praying for Benjamin, and will pass word along
what a heavy load; prayer-listed
It gets worse! At age 5 this boy's mother died after a stat C-section at 24 wks of the 3rd pregnancy. Dad was left with Ben, sister age 3 and new premie.
I am so sad and mad--this is so unfair, so wrong.
oh, scrabs, what a tragic family! :'(
Oh that is tragic Scrabs, I don't know how you do it every day , and bless you
I am always so very empathetic with kids who lose a parent - my mom died when I was 13, and it was devastating
((((((Scrabbler))))))
Life gives us such burdens at times
hi all, back after dinner, now babbling & watching Detroit RedWings... question: are there any pt words?
hey, monk
Now tha family just knows that the bone tumor will be scooped out, but not about the chest x-ray yet. The orthopedist has not yet told the family as grandma brought kid to the ortho yest.
no, monk, no pterosaurs :)
oh scrabs, i'm so sorry... what a sad story
OK thanks tyger :)

bye, monkey!
I've just been back out the front and picked up 3 more rolling cans and a bottle. The gusts of wind are ferocious.
I can't even imagine...
you are safe, though, right, jacula?
As I said earlier, tomorrow's refuse collection day for the recycling boxes - paper & card, plastics, cans, glass. Someone's plastic and cans + box ended up on our front drive! I've been picking the debris up for a while now.
Lady - I hope so! (Prays the roof stays on.)
And, will the storms abate after tomorrow?
I hope so too!
I need a sleep (again)... see you later
Pam - this storm's going tomorrow afternoon, but I think there is more to come. My son's supposed to be flying to The Netherlands to visit his g/f tomorrow afternoon.
I foresee cancellations and/or delays.:(
there. I have 100 words and one from each tile and taking a break.
{{{LadyN}}} see you soon.
I wish him and all safe travels, Jac...
'Bye, LadyNatt. Oh heck! I can hear yet another can rolling about out there.:(
Stid--I am reading a great book--The Assist--about a high school basketball coach and his devotion...
How much beer can one man drink in a fortnight??
LOLOLOL, jac
Yes, Pam, I guess that WAS a stupid question!:D
ROFLMAO...
hey jacula, is that a challenge??!!
If he drinks 3 a night that's 42 cans... *goes to count what she's picked up so far...*
He must be up a lot at night... bathroom runs...
hmm - 17 beer cans + sundry soft drinks cans and plastic bottles.
Lindrick. Hi. No. I'm picking up the cans from a neighbour's blown away recycling box. For some reason, they all want to party in my front garden.
how come we aren't invited jacula?!!
Lindrick - the cans are rowdy enough without adding you lot to the mix! LOL
hi guys, how ya doin?
lol jacula!!
You talking to the cans, Lindrick?
who ever will listen jacula!!
Can you imagine the cacophony if the Babble chatlog came with sound? Especially when people start singing.
Oh dear, Lindrick. That bad? You remind me of Shirley Valentine, 'Hello walls!'
where did i put my ear plugs?!!
LOL
oh i don't bother with walls just talk to myself, have started answering myself lately too!!
OMG, I DO NOT want a soundful chog--
I've done that for years, Lindrick! (Comes of being an only child.)
aawww spoilsport!!
Pam - you mean you don't want to hear all the lovely singing??
O Sole Mio...
I'm back
oh mine is down to the fact i'm the youngest of 4 and never got a word in jacula!!
hi tyger
Comes to the same thing, Lindrick.
Hi again, tyger.
hey, lin, jac
i guess jacula
after too much food ... I thought I'd see whether anybody needed clues now. I assume those who were working on it an hour ago are mostly finished by now.
I've also got a very talkative (Gemini) mother. If I ever wanted to get a word in I had no choice but to interrupt (and then, of course, I'd be told off for that).:(
jac, that's a purdy kitty. one of your pets?
LOL, Jac. It's not so much the singing as the talking over one another.. Babble is my way of calming down...
i know that feeling well jacula
Tyger - he's got to4 ears and many battle scars. He is like the 'Bacardi Breezer' cat, though.
the nice thing about a chat log or message board is that nobody gets interrupted.
he looks like one of those very smart cats with the superior airs :)
One thing I have wondered, at times, is what would happen if every sound ever made since time began all came back at once...
do you read SF, jac?
eeuu just the thought has made my ears pop!
Tyger - he's a bit of a th4/8, truth be told. My old qu5/16, Kira, was the 'royal' one. LOL
somebody published at least one story about that some years ago
I used to, tyger.
That would be painful, and on many planes, Jac...
Pam - I think it would probably kill all living things. The vibration alone would probably cause us to explode.
I didn't mean to imply that he was a pansy, jac :) he definitely doesn't have that look
I agree, Jac...
hi
hey, bubbie
I never even thought that, tyger. He doesn't have any *whisper* 'you know whats' but it doesn't seem to have stopped him fighting and/or killing everything that moves.
oops, bubble
hi bubble
hi, bubble..
friends of mine had a tom much like yours, jac, and KitKat defended his turf for many years, including against many "whole" males
Does anyone ne4/5 any clues, or are we all done?
done? no, not done, but enjoying wending my way...
I think
oops ... I think we're both just here for the conversation :)
Pam - yell if you ne4/5 any assistance.
nowhere close to done, but not stuck en**** for clues yet
will do, jac...
You, too, woceht.
did stid leave?
Jac, have you heard from/seen Hurshy?
stid went off on a break
Not sure, pam, re Stid. I was out picking ruddy beer cans up.
thanks jac. i will
stid is not showing as online
i only got 11 words
grrr
Hursh? Erm... can't remember.
ahh, ok. Maybe the kid beckoned..
haven't seen hursh in a long while
Haven't seen hide nor hair of her in a while...
I havent seen Hursh in forever
Pam - Have you seen jilli's 'Cartland' makeover that Ata did?
how long have you been coming here, greenogre?
2 days LOL
Hi, shorty.
I hope shes ok
no, I haven't Jac...
Maybe Hursh is busy or travelling?
I think somebody said a few days ago that she's taking a sabbatical (hursh)
Hi, shorty
Hi Jac!
thanks, tyger...
and Pam+ everyone else
ogre, have you read the "help" page? has anybody pointed you to Lickety's page?
the info presented a few days ago was from somebody who had "seen" her on another site
umm no whats that
I'm going to have to take a Babblebreak before long - the attic is in dire ne4/5 of a clearout. My aunt wants some old photos of herself and her childhood friend to put in an album for her friend's 60th birthday. I've got all the old family photos and the box they are in is buried deep!:(
hey again, shorty (we were both on together before 7pm, site time)
again, thanks!!!!! You are well-informed, tyger.
ogre, the link for the help page is at the top of this page
yep LoL
no 5/10?

LOLOL.. I may yet, Jac...
MrP's back in hospital from what I last saw, but no more surgery until July.
that is great news, tyger!
I think she's back home now
I know she is in hospital, but glad the pendulum has once again swung in her favor
oh, yes indeed! It must be awful to have a problem like that that goes on ... and on .... and on ... :(

no 6/30 - zero or nothing

5th qu5/16 is also a qualifier, meaning "very"
ogre, that's why I referred you to Lickety's page. the stuff is also explained in the help page
thats ok ill just find words
trying to figure out the 8 letter word
the 2 letters we use are the first 2 letters in the target word. the first number is how many letters in the word. the 2nd number is how many points the word is worth

keep forgetting to click over
what the it dosnt fit thpugh
what, goldie?
what doesn't fit???
the fo7 the gerund part dosnt fit
what is the penalty box? is that like standing in the corner?
I said I don't think it's a real word, didn't I??
I'm back for a while.
Yes, greenogre. It is.
It's kinda like that, ogre. we try really hard to not spoil the puzzle for each other
no the last four letters
snikees im not going in the corner
and when you give away a word from the grid, that spoils somebody else's challenge to find it
<--- zips my lips
*shoves green into corner* LOL
ro 5/18 ? please
ow jac you stepped on ym toe!
that's why we use all the weird ways of suggesting what a word is
ro5/18: not smooth
Sorry, green. You should have gone qu5/16ly.
the last four letters of fo7
ro 5 - opposite of smooth
pi6/24 please?
had it..already sorry
I am getting tired here
the last 4 letters of fo7 are also the word for a funny electronic noise
pi6/24 = 'felt sorry for'.
s'okay, ruru
pi 6/24 - felt sorry for
thanks. i'm missing lots of blatantly obvious ones today. :(
goldie, the "WORDS" in the grid come from a Scrabble word list. not all of them are REAL words.
we all have those days, woce
have the tr 6/21, need the 7/32 - my very last word...
ditto what tyger just said, woceht.

Hey Jilli, How's your weather?
Hi jilli!

weather ok here today, autumn -- occasional very light spits of wet, the rest sun
I'm back. Been off talking to my son. Storm's still raging and more beer cans are joining the party in my front garden.
Jilli - Have you seen Ata's Cartland makeover of you ytet?
in the long run, we DO reap what we sow

ho7: rabbits do this, harp (gerund)
harp, what rabbitsdo gerund ending.
and yes, turtle, it's cool. I'm just jealous :)
snap, turtle
oh thanks, i can't believe how many of that ilk i have asked for...
*grins*
I think gerund should be an icon theme. I love that word. :-)
:D
crap, i have 39 left and they're all the same letter, i hate that!
autumn, I will -- after my vodkas-on-the-rox as I watch Coronation Street (nearly over)
Suggest it MaMa, I think babbler needs themes.
how in heck do you make an icon about gerunds???????
I bet they're all 't' words, harp.
47 here for me harp.
oh, my! ((harp))
Me too crapping harp have 36 and NOt the same haah
the ts are driving me insane today.
tyger - Where there's a will, there's a way... re gerund theme.
going for a "breath of fresh air" then will return to find the elusive 82!
yup! 39 t's
that'll take more creativity than I've got, fershure
later, moon
Im going to list and ask for my last 2 h words
shoot, MaMa
The t's are all easy... once you've got 'em. LOL
go for it
SOME of the Ts are easy
yes, tyger,and some are not!!!
ho 4,7 and 4,5?
Bet MaMaWA is after ho4/7 and ho6.24.
gotta go pretty soon. if you want genuwine tyger clues, MaMa, better ask fast :D
Im asking
ho4/7 is your cheeswire knicker(s) without the 't'.
ho4/7 + ho* (sweetie) + "don't be a *oose"
ho6.24 = bee product, verb form or past tense.
1st ho4/5: sharpen
2nd ho4/5: honk your ho**
ok i give up. what's the first to4/5?
hello all -- 54 to go, just grabbing the list now
I had the bee and got the honk,slap me but still missing one
t + number before 2.
1st to4/5: subject - final cons
Hi again, stid.
Jac WHAT aare cheeswire Knickers???
ho4/7 is also a Chinese society, I believe
eh. that's obscure tyger.
ho4/7: ho + hump + not a duck, but a *oose
Cheesewire knickers are th5/16s, MaMa.
that's me; woce. always good for obscure clues :P
Hello, all
lol ... just joined in again for the obscure clues
LOL, Jac!
hi jellen
wow, jac. you Brits can come up with some staarraaange slang
FO 6 please?
WB natts, but I'm not here for too long
Hey! I'm the qu5/16 of obscure clues giving true definitions. That's official! LOL
fo6: PT of did battle
I fo**** for my rights at the tax office this evening
tyger - don't you see the connotation?
well, I guess I'm the pretender, then, eh? ;)
Hi, jellen.
oh golly, LadyN... I entered thought I put that in earlier! LOL
Yup, tyger, you are. LOL
weeell, I guess so; I only know I'd never wear the things
oo... jolly good clue on hindsight, tyger. i finally got it!
ok got that last silly clue it worked for me alth**** i am not always sure about the hump letter
:)
and why not, tyger?
tyvm, woce. my ego is bruised at the moment
sure had to think about it though.
I can never bear anything riding up in a body crease, natts
MaMa, would you rather camel and dromedary??
tyger - try a pair on... then you'll know what I mean by cheesewire, especially if you go 2 sizes smaller. ROFLOLPMP.
oh for heaven's sake,..it does not "ride up"
Hi Jellen just saw you there
te6?
but it's stuck right there between, natts. :shivers:
Hi, MaMa
I'm with you, jac, but I'd never waste my money on a pair
I really did not get the camel thing earlier lol
omg ... you so make me laugh.
FR 8 please?
butt now i do
te6: add another vowel just before final cons of high male singing voice
a camel has one hump. a dromedary has two
pun intended ;-)
te6 = the male opera singer with an added vowel. 'Number before 9 + belonging to us'.
the suggestion was made earlier to buy them cheap... like at Walmart... and throw them away if you don't like em
we use hump for one of the letters in the middle of the alphabet - just before the round vowel
we use 2 hump for the letter before that one
still won't waste my money; thanks all the same
I already have plenty of panties :)
ty tyger i have it now
thanks, but don't you mean number after 9? anyway i got it!
Just don't buy them! No need to encourage the manufacturers of uncomfy knickers.
jac, no need to tell *me* that. I think they're ridiculous
If your underwear's hurting anyway it's almost as bad as that pair of new shoes that are killing your feet.
Put them all together...
disaster.
yw, MaMa
lol tyger... lol jacula... there's no truth to what you are saying... th5s are qu5 comfortable, thank you very much
Oh! Those bloody beer cans are still clanking along the road outside. Lots of 'boozers' in our road, methinks.
natts, you wear what you please, hon. and just grant me the same privilege, please? :)
I am stuck here with 34 ts and ps left and will bid you all a... good night ;-)
Ditto, tyger.
I like bikinis & hi-cuts - can't stand panties @ my waist
nite, MaMa
FINALLY got the last Q word...
yay, stid!
but I still need the FR 8...
sweet dreams MaMa
qu5/16 a lot of them tonite!

Now I will dream of when I had a waist tyger ...hahah Poof
alrighty then, tyger (and Jacula)... you both have made me laugh with your comments... I'm off to make dinner for the hubby.... later, all
fr8: not the back, but the fr5 + gerund
later, natts
LOL thanks tyger... only too fishy!

jac what time is it where you are?
Jut heard another 6 beer cans rolling past. Wind direction must have changed! They're not joining the 'Party' in my front garden.
3:24am.
Jac, maybe they are all sodacans?
or that crazy red bull stuff?
^ more just rolled by.
what are you doing up, counting cans dancing around your house?
6 more, that is.
PI 6/30 please
No, they're yet moe Carling Black Label cans, I've got to know the sound of them now.
There is no pl6.30.
pi 6/30 is like the word before it but with a different ending consonent
Jac so the puzzle starts for you at 4 or 5 AM?
consonant even
Jac, our lights keep dimming
6am, MLF.
ty
got it
LOL Jac, you could almostbe on a commercial for the sutff...
But I'm not usually here for the start.
is it the storm keeping you awake too?
I am at times, though. LOL
Why, red? It's gassy crap.
Jac ah too early for me though i admit i have been here before 8am but not much
hm. you don't have to like it to be on the commercial though, do you?
Nottoo many people can recognize the sound of a specific can movign past....so it would be one of thosettention catching things.
Chrissie - yes. Whare are you?

i should be po6/27 over my books instead of hanging out here?
I wondered, Red, about the name of the road next to mine, it has to do with a windmill. 20 or 30 years' back there were the remains of an old wodden windmill up the hills. These days, I think the name is due to what appears to be the fave drink in the neighbourhood. Do have to say that I have collected 3 empty bottles rolling down of a good whiskey (That's Irish), though.
TY woceht
*wooden, not wodden.
interesting Jac....
Don't have those yet, red
fo7/56 is a gerund ending. erm. kind of like what a fish does when you put it out on land but minus the second letter?

I'm Irish, I used to live amongst hicks, and I've had one drink too many, but I still don't get that clue...
