But it's been two days, and DrGod has not replied to either email I sent him regarding a very worrying creditcard transation

lickety, I am actually glad you mentioned it. I think I need to head out for the evening. {{{lickety}}} back sometime tomorrow. *poof*

fireworks
Yay!
Hooray, Knight!
I was about to say phantom fi6, but as you can see...
YAY knight!!!
I have a funny story. When we were having a baby shower for our first daughter, her sister, second daughter was looking for a gift for her and I told her she should get her what I considered a necessity for all new mothers..Dr. Spock..
Is is possible that I could have more than Jillibus? That doesn'thappen very often...
doesn't happen
So she went to the bookstore and asked for the book on baby and child care by Leonard Nimoy
lol
Douglas, I'm a real slowpoke -- still 100 to find
Ha! Great story!
and that baby is my icon today
and one blank tile
I am not Spock by Dr Spock would be followup?
Nice, Westford!

of course not now that my granddaughter is there lol
west, if you crop a photo so it's square, it doesn't get squished :)
I got the PI 7
thanks I knew there must be a way
panini is a phantom
westford, if you hold down Ctrl and Shift while selecting in Paint, it will give you a square...

Hi Marmar
I bring out the best in people...lol

Hi everyone! Got all the kids delivered, dog has been walked and fed, the computer is MINE!!!
th5 they are. Thanks a lot, ruru :)
oh Marmar, how lovely! wb :)
and.....the kitchen is clean! How good am I?
way better than I, Marmar. I have a wash in the machine and I helped the kids to school. That is all.
well, this isn't normal for me, somehow, life has been rolling along very effeciently lately.
sounds like you are getting some of your energy back at last, Marmar. Good sign!
I guess so. It feels good. I just caught a little of Lady's update with internet problems. Hope that gets cleared up soon.
yeah, so do I. But she is enjoying the new home and that is the most important thing.
nite all off to bed... big day tomorrow.. hope I get home intime to finish the grid
goodnite Ruru
have a restful night and a great day, ruru
Goodnight Ruru, sweet dreams!
hi everyone
hi Andree
good evening Andree
Hi Andree
will be right back, need breakfast. Will bring it up to babble though :)
I have a new approach to Babble, I am looking for the bigger and/or more obscure words so I can save the more obvious and easier words for Marcus (my 6 year old) when he gets home from kindergarten. He's even more obsessed than I am with this game.
nice marmar
He's pretty amazing isn't he!
I think so. Some days he would come home and I had already gotten so many that he couldn't find any, he looked so frustrated. If he has a love for words, that leads to a love of reading, I gotta nurture it!
he is wonderful, Marmar, and you are a wonderful mum.
He doesn't want his own 'membership' so he can see his own name and have his own picture?
Thanks, your too generous. I try and I just love all three so much I can hardly stand it.
that is what does it, Marmar :) *hug*
awww what a lovely mum (not that we all aren't!)
He probably would love it, can you have two memberships from one email address?
if not, you can use a hotmail email address for Markus
If possible, that would be a GREAT present for when he starts school in August.
Not sure - you could always contact DrGod first
Great idea Lynxxx, thank you!
I do the same with my granchildren, let them go first and get what they can if they are visiting
Don't Pink's kids have their own account??? Or do they all play on one? Pink, you out there?
did you see my hint on another email addy, Marmar?
fi5/22 please
fi5.22 sort of like the abbrev for your 'ice-chest'
please Andree, sit still and stop fi5ting.
Oh Sprite, I am so computer illiterate...I have heard of hotmail but don't know much about it. Can I just go there and get an email address?
thx sprite
and thx lynxxx
yes Marmar, you can go there and make as many hotmail addresses you like.
Ha, then that's the solution! Thanks.
you go to www.hotmail.com and then make an account. You never need to go there anymore if all you need is the addy.
another phantom partridge
that one has been pestering me from the start, da4.
Hi Dart!

thx babble and sprite
maybe 30 years ago
Hi BabbleRabble!
that long ago you quitted smoking?
were you born 30 years ago?
yw Andree!
I witnessed God declare: "Let there be light."
bet you didn't
and lighted your cigarette from it that instant
a polite young japanese tourist offered me her seat on the monorail today, i was quite affronted, do i look THAT old, lol
lolol Andree!
ohhh, Andree, bittersweet...
i am still able to stand!!!
aw Andree, able to, but you don't HAVE to anymore! Enjoy the gifts of advanced wisdom :)
Well, I will be 50 next year, and this morning while I was walking the dog, I tried to see how far I balance while walking on the curb....I think sometimes I will never act my age.
made me cringe the first time I was called ma'am now it's an everyday thing
lol, I love you guys.
we love you too sprite
ooh tell us the Dutch for I love you
and I'll try to remember
ohhhh, me too Westford.
west: ik hou van jou, or ik heb je lief.
is one more formal?
ik hou van jou is more general. Ik heb je lief is more or less reserved for partner love.
is the j pronounced as y?
indeed, west
and the ou is as in out
I shall try it out on hubby when he returns
awwww west, that is so sweet!
or perhaps on all the Dutchmen I meet
well.... take care with that. You might want to be a little more selective.
Ah Sprite, your "indeed" reminds me of DC. I miss him and Lady
where is seain?
lol sprite I will
West, your Granddaughter is a cutie! I wish her well on her birthday.
not too many here in Rhode Island
thanks mar I'll tell her
lady will be back soon, when her internet problems are sorted out. But DC, yes, I miss him too and with him on day shift, th5 isn't much chance he will be able to play often anymore :(
she's the first of 5
oh too bad
about 10 years ago we were in a bed and breakfast in Ireland and an English woman told the story of learning to drive in Holland where her husband is from
She said the seat was too low so she kept saying to the instructor that she needed a pillow
must go now, happy babbling all, 48 left will try for them tomorrow
apparently what she was saying to him she found out later was that she needed a kiss
bye Andree
lol West
bye andree tc
bye andree!
Bye Andree!
she wondered why he looked a little uncomfortable
oh dear... yes. A 'kus' is a kiss. A 'kussen' is a pillow.
Kissen=pillow in German
it is all so close, isn't it, Marmar :)
when we lived in thailand in the early 80's and were learning thai my husband went into the ffice and announced in thai my penis is bigger than a cow[ he took months to realise what he had said]
omg!!! And what did he THINK he was saying?
good grief lol
can't remember, we were learning bigger than and smaller than
well, he had that part right anyway... :D
now poof
that is one he won't live down any time soon, I bet...
I'm sure
phantom: magniloquent
talking big?
a person who favors big words
yeah, pompous
hi!!
big words is sesquipedilian
thanks :)

Hi Titagosa
Those misspeaks provide us with laughs all the time here, it's so much fun. It took my husband ages to learn and remember "windshield wipers". He was constantly saying things like "shildshipe shippers" and whipshop shoopers". When he had to buy replacements at the US Army gas station (I used to work at the base here) he just put his arms up in front of him at 90 degree angles and moved them back and forth in front of him and said "I need some of these" And the clerk knew what he wanted!
how r u?
rofl !!!!!
that's too funny mar
where r u from?
Good thanks ... you can tell by our flags
my cat is wondering why I'm cracking up

hello spatial, ishult, west, sprite, lynxxx et al..
hi lyn and spat
hi
i have one left that i cant find....is it too early to ask for help? lol
go right ahead, Kazozz
its the 2nd ra 6/21, if anyone has it!
took me ages before I notice the obvious ending , then the 7's just flowed out, just 2 more 7's needed (although still need 6 8's , 1 nine & a ten)
it is the ra6/27 before it, but change last letter into a vowel
ty sprite didn't have that one
well i never..fireworks tyvm sprite :)
don't have either ra6/21
yayyyy Kazozz! Was my last R as well, stupid word. Congrats.
Congrats Kazozz!
it
way to go Kazozz!
and i luv turnips...but never heard of that word before!
Ishult, the one before it is a bad word... forcing a person to sex.
is the gerund involving sabine women
night all, cu next grid :)
night Kazozz
yay kaz and good night
only 2 left, both T4s. How hard can they be.
not hard. Fireworks :)
Oh, I better go, want to get in a devotional before the kids get home and the caos starts. See you later.

Hooray for Sprite !!
*hugs Marmar*
yayyyyyy spritey well done!!
Yea Sprity!
bye Marmar
bye marmar!
chaos...you know what I mean. Bye all!!!
bye mar tc
any clues needed before I go?
maybe the 10 that I don't have
please
do you have the re10?
I have the 10/84
ok, the other one is tr10/91.
yes the one where you teach something again
does it have a gerund ending too?
do you have tr6/21, trick or snare? Gerund end.
no I don't have that I'll look
it starts with snare, pitfall. + **us very important exit of body. Gerund for the 10.
getting the clues but not fitting them together
got it thanks
when making it into a gerund, don't forget to double the consonant...
that's what I did forget at first
westford...put 3 letters in front of what the old gold seekers did
thought so. Glad you got it, it is an unusual word.
back to 7th grade English for me
oh dear ...too late... sorry !
tr 10 ends with minors in a stream using pie tin to find gold
that was a good clue too kar
miners too
and if the ist vowel was an e - it would be boring holes in a skull!
and bab
lolol... minors? or miners?
oh thank you westford.... I feel better now
Hi Karys
child labor laws were implemented
if I had holes in my skull they wouldn't be boring
ok, I am off, thanks for the laughs and company. Have a terrific day and/or night all of you, and be blessed!
hi lynn and all.... just on my way out.... back in a bit
be well, sprite
bye Spritely
bye sprite have a lovely day *hugs*

Hi Doren
{{Dorens}}
I will be back later to get the last 25 he promises himself. Good Luck everyone
see ya Blue !!
I walked into the kindergarten class yesterday and the teacher was reading them a story about bunnies and scrabbler popped into my head ((aussie))
I am just staggered that there are 2 ve8 words !!
hi and bye blue
oh. really. 2 ve 8...?
will you clue them?
Aw, how sweet, Doren.
would if I had them !
was just peeping at list !
Marco Polo was one. Hi all
ve 8 - from an italian city
then i emembered someone talking the other day about finding newborn bunnies, and wanted to tell them the story.. oh, thanks fmitch
like the blinds !
hey FM !!
My dear Callie is worsening--left hind leg is nearly paralyzed, so she hops with a tilt and then falls over easily. But she hopped to this room to be with me after eating her salad. I told her she has to let me know when she is ready to die.
I know for sure I'm a Babble addict. The past couple of days have been a challenge, and I'm still Babbling...
(((((callie))))))
{{{Bunny Callie}}}
(((((((scrabs)))))))
Feather !!
and she will be mourned by so many many babblers, scrabs
{{{Callie}}} oh man...what a crappy day
It is hard to imagine daily life here without her. She is my little shadow.
Oh Scrabbs....... We are here for you xx
oh, no...poor Callie, Scrabbler...
Oh Scrabs but that is the way of these things. Hello to everyone too numerous to list :)
I must figure out how to put pix up at Flickr--that will be my task after work
hi aussie, carlee, dorens, fm, angelsong, scrabs, phan
morning, Feather
( the other ve8 sit on the ve*an*ah + mark twain was a popular wr****)
that would be good scrabbler
That would be great to see a pic of Bunny Callie
is today's seeming better than yesterday?
scrabbs, Flickr is easy to use.
Whoa, what a word, CArlee!
morning feather
thanks carlee.. i was trying to use those first four letters, but might never have monkeyed that ending
uh oh nick's giving doug trouble, gotta run
thats a word i use every day (she says) !!
Feather--I just made a bingo in our game. So sorry.
Haha, Aussie--new word for me too.
well, its different !!
Todays grid is a thousand times better than yesterdays and uch more entertaininginging, over use of the gerund is essential today hint hint :)
there...v's done....on to t's
I'm wondering if I should put my baby brother's picture online.
I noticed....
why not Angel ?
Do Angel.
There's a gerund ending in the grid? Ah, there it is. It takes me so long to notice essential things like that. And, look, there is an X too.
wow fmitch thanks. think i just got ten words without thinking!
I would like to see it, Angel. What is his name?
and the x gets used too Scrabbler. LOL and yw Dorens
yesterday's final word list was funny to review--so many pretend words
yeap..the x is in last ve word....where 2 lines intersect at an accute angle
TY, carlee
I want to do that, Doren--fi4 words without thinking. How do you do that? A pa4-less way to Babble.
To those that don't always use the time values to f4 words today is a good one to practice with, and now I am going to shush and let you all get on.
can anyone help with the pa8/45,please/
why would you not put his picture up Angel ?
just work that ing end*** scrab,,, i really wasn't thinking and there must be 15 now
am I missing something ?
time values /
No I don't think you are Aussie
thats ok then...
I am missing 104 words
time values?
time values? what are they?
I am missing 91 Scrabbs !!
ok..the tr10 is stoopid
Scrabbler got me thinking about putting the picture online. If Callie's can be up, so can the baby's.
pa8/45 is driving me crazy...can't see it
I just found a bunch of gerunds and it was, get this, truly pa4less, just like Doren said. try it, you'll like it.
I dont understand, why would you not put his picture up ?
catch a mouse in a tr*+ how the oldtimers used to find gold ( gerund ending )
Whoa, Ty, carlee--how did you find that?
well, carlee !! theres a new word !
Of course, Angel.
hey, I got both 10's....
just feeding monkeys well..point value... gerund ending... dumb luck????
thamls carlee-- did we have that word once before?
Take away the end** for a tr6/21, carlee
And drop an N
( I know... was how I got to the 10 scrabs... the tr4...then the 6..then the 10 )
lol as I said earlier being able to count the tile values is invaluable today.
oh, you meant tile values, not time values
I have to go now, kids. I skipped a shower yesterday because of my Babble addiction, so I must get hosed down now. Bye. Enjoy the day.
it just never occurred to me to put the picture online until Scrabbs mentioned Flickr
**passes Scrabbs a sponge**
oh TILE values... cool. i thought i was missing something... lol
byebye scrabs..have a good day
Ah, I see !
scrab you are NOT alone there
Aussie, I am like the elephants at the zoo--just hose me down.
Oh sorry did I do one of my typos again and not notice, apologies. hangs head in shame.
that only helps tho when you have a list... i strictly use no list for at least the first half.... need ten more... then it gets easy
It is a sign of an addiction to skip daily hygiene in order to feed the addiction. LOL
**lifts FM's chin up** not to worry FM !!
just thought it was an interesting new concept fmitch.. timing myself to get a certain number of words or what not
*grin* now theres a thought Dorens!
well, go forth and come out smelling clean and fresh scrabs,,, see you later
i was wondering that myself dorens...
perhaps we will work out an elaborate system of time values, in honor of typos!
Good afternoon all. My pasta making machine has just arrived. The company was out of stock when I first ordered it a few weeks ago. Now they have sent me two!
LOL
holy crap... I monkeyed one heck of a th5 word... NEVER heard that one before...
JAC !!!!!
can i order some nice fresh fettucine, please?
anyone have the top E?
one pasta machine for pasta..one for clay bead making
No wonder they were out of stock if they make a habit of doubling everyone's orders.
fish worthy angel
sea bird...
Dorens - I'll probably muck the first few lots up. I imagine it's like learning to use a potter's wheel.:)
carlee.. have seen that word before, the one that ends in two consonants that just doesn't look right?
ok jacula, i can wait patiently!
I don't see that E.
oh oh...babble is sending up "word cannot be added" red warmings
down to the left angel, then back up
Angel, er hump letter + 2nd vowel !
got it.
Aussie, really you should just spell the word out if you are going to do that!, smacks leg with a wet kipper.
hi all
hi hodag
Hello hodag.
Hello Jacs and hodag
gotta run now... past my half and big day awaiting me at work... later all
ok..now it is time for me to hose down..back in a few mins...
'Bye Dorens.
ACK..there is a 10 letter re word....crap crap crap..ok..gone to shower
Hey everyone, anyone had any contact with DrGod recently? I'm emailed him a couple of days ago with a very worrying query, and he hasn't replied.
hiya Jac,Dorens,FM and bye to all that are leaving......:-)
Hi lickety. I had an email from him about 4 days ago.
Hi lickety, Last contact I had with him was a couple of weeks ago.
hi lick
12th April he mailed me, lickety.
carlee, don't let that re10 scare you.
ok, well it's been a few days. I've had to get my CreditCard company to cancel a $66 transaction from EpiGroove that we have no idea what it's about.
I've been waiting for some sort of explanation, but heard nothing.
Oh, I can see why you were worried, Lickety. I'm sure he'll be in touch soon.
{{{{lickety}}}} Glad to see you !!
maybe it's that Brazilian wax kit you forgot you ordered
You can retip an arrow or a pool cue. You can rerev your engine. You can retarp your wood pile. But guess what you can't do? Have those words accepted!
Yeah - he would want to know asap for something like that. Hey Aussieme
lol gramma !! your clues were invaluable yesterday... My Monkeys have never worked so hard !
lickety, did you get the video I sent you?
I mean Lickety !!
You also can't retrap an animal. Not even in a have-a-heart
Hi folks. Back again. Got a Seriously Angry toddler upstairs playing and calming down instead of napping Alone time is good too, though. He had a shot, and he doesn't hold with it.
Hey angelsong - I got one on the form yeah
ok, Babble Family !! Must go get ready for work, eat, and generally get stuff done..... will be back after 11pm my time.....
**poof**
gramma - you're giving an awful lot of words away th5/12!
Bye Aussie
Aussie, was it my breath?
'Bye Aussie.
owww gramma breath - for sure
don't know if you liked that video, but I found it helpful, so.....
Jac, you can have 'em the grid won't take them.
angel - thanks for the vid - I haven't had a chance to watch it but I put it on the list. I've got a setup now where I can queue them up for future days
I have the shorter forms of them, gramma.
Can anyone clue the ve8 that isn't light-regulation related?
Half way, I can wait for the rest till tonight, see you all later
Oh...I maybe should have thought of that, huh?
angel - I've seen one for tshirts ;-)
Monkey - ve8 = copper carbonate for blue or green colouring.
thanks!
'Bye katie.
bye Katie.:-)
Hmmm. The only one I can think of isn't on the grid.... I will work on this.
pa8/45,pls
got the first half of the ve8 clued below not sure about the end of it though
droma - fancy flower beds or seating sections in the theatre.
i just can't seem to see it
Time I wasn't he4. Got ironing to do and a choc orange cheesecake to make. BBL for my final 30.
Seeya!
Droma - golf standard + French for earth or floor.
i'm not getting the ve clue either. verdigris isn't there....
Byeee.
Yeah, I admit to stumped on that one. Someone earlier in the day said it roots in a 6, but I don't have that either, it seems.
good clue Jac
For the ve 8 -- take the green prefix and add it to di 4/5, then add another consonant. I hope that helps.
Whoa, and there it is!!! Thanks.
Yay!
That one drove me crazy too.
thanks Melissa; never heard of it before
Me neither!
gm babblers
gm kje....:-}
Yay FIREWORKS! Can I help anyone else before I got?
morning kje.
Go, that is?
WTG Melisa!!!
Thanks and good morning kje!
kudos, Melissa!
wtg mel
Thanks Inge2 and hodag, I haven't been finishing lately so this is nice.
this is a nice grid
Since no one has any requests, good night/day all, and good luck!
have a good one, Melissa
It's fun, kje; unlike yesterday's!
hagd melisa
see ya mel
:)
Had to rush off for a minute... if it's not too late I'd appreciate a clue for the tr8.
tr 8 - choo choo + gerund
choo-choo + gerund
OMG-SNAP, kje!
snap inge
Oh, duh, thanks! I have the related re and the base word. Must be extra stupid today.
LOL
My god. I've been ing-ed to death. Ack
I love ing-ing
it is a nicely placed ing
there are so many ings they're easy to miss
i've decided to ing everything - which seems to be workING
When in doubt, ing it. Kinda' boring grid. Hope there's a big one lurking soon.
there are some interesting words in it though. I like it.
How about the ve6 that doesn't end in three letters meaning an unholy racket?
ooof..trust lori to be bored with a grid that flows ESPECIALLY after yesterday's grid
Yeesh, rude of me, G'd morning all!
I think it is a fun grid - probably won't need the list today
Hi!
morning lori...** passing coffee**
same 3 first letters + ***as is a big state.
Yeesh! A perfectly normal word and I looked right through it!
***gratefully accepting coffee***
ve 6 - utmost top point
I confess I peeked at Lickety's whn the whole ing thingy wasn't working out.... a feel good grid for sure.
Lori, you're just too smart for most grids
amazing how she changes her tune once she has caffeine in the system
hi carlee
hey there kje
finally got all of the P's.
Soon the reparte will start flowing....
have you guys had these cara cara oranges that are in the stores now?... if not, try them, they are delice!
Yea Angel! Caffeine is as necessary to me, as breathing. lol
nice try inge - LOL
cara cara?
You guys know that grids are always easy. Once they're done..... :-)
k, off to the showers with me
that's what they are called "cara cara oranges"
Happy showering.
where are they grown?
off to the shower and Dr. bye.....:-}
california - they are also called "pink navels"
You and Inge are showering seperately, right? Later hodag, take care.
LOL lori
ok..willlook for them next time am at store... thanks
go nicely with my coffee : )
for sure........:D
:-) @ hodag
I'm always up for something new, will see if they're available on my piece of the planet kje.
hope they are - enjoy!
( zehrs/ loblaws likely lori )
LoriP you make my day! "poof"
Flippin' heck. 2 ten letter words? Hi hodag, carleekat, kje, Lori.
they are amazingly easy once you get in there hydra - found them listless and clueless - not usual fo rme : )
G'd morning hydra. The 10's will be reveali*** themselves easily. :-)
lol kje, I've spent my whole life clueless.....
Good mornng ... just sticking my nose in to check out the grid. How is it?
the grid is lovely - come on in for a swim!
G'd morning Merk, it's a gooder. Not as many weird-y's as yesterday.
Those 10's scare me. Where are they?
ohhhhhhhhhh..now it is a gooder...before is was BORING...
***dismisses the notion of doing housework and heads to kitchen for more coffee***
Maybe you haven't got my hangover, kje. I had a good night out last night! Am struggling to even SEE the grid!
LOL carlee - she may have missed that snide remark in her pursuit of caffeine!
advise going back to bed then hydra!
well..we'll just have to remind her when she gets back then
merk, the 10's are not that bad. If you know how to do a job, and have a head injury and forget how to do it, you need re10.
I love your choice of poems, kje. Are you a poet yourself?
OK - I must get dressed for work - see you all as I pop in and out throughout the day! - 59 to go!
OK, I'll search when I get there. ty
I write some - wouldn't call my self a poet though - LOL
and thanks for reading my icon hydra - must go - poof
See you soon, kje!
Later kje, take care.
38 to go... toddler not sleeping... don't blame him, he was quite put out about the shot... will have top get him soon. Argh.
Oh, I already found it, thanks. What about the second one?
the tr****** needed, then do it again Merk..... :-)
Ooh! I just got one of them, too.
I got quite a few words off of that one clue, Angel. If this keeps up, I'll get something done today.
tr10: catch a mouse in a ****+prospectors are *******for gold....
I thought that was spelt with an 'e', Angel. Thanks for your clue, I'd never have got it otherwise.
Well miss snarky carlee, it is a gooder, when it's easy. It's a badder when it's not. ***sips coffee** :-)
Yay! Just found the ad6 and 9. Was bugging me.
I'm in serch of the tr 10, but the prospectors have evaded me so far.
a frying *** Merk, not a pot
what they use to dig
fry bacon in a frying ***. add gerund ending
I've got it. Completely new to me... thanks
Thanks for the tr10 you all.
argh..NOW I am at work ALL day...first bloody nice day..was scheduled for 3-6...then 10-12, 3-6..now 10-6
I started using that double consonant and gerund ending from the tr 10 and found all kinds of words.
i am paid LESS then the other guy... they get me doing more then they let the other guy..and NOW they want me doing paperwork.... AND i haven't been paid since february
and its my b-in -l/ m-in-l that run the place
Carlee, the words are, "I quit." Of course, find another job first.
and fireworks for me!
Congrats Angel
its my MOTHER in law..and BROTHER in law...and if i did that....they would beeyach to hubby then hubby would beeyach at me
Are you a masochist carlee? You loath your MIL. Get a different job........
oh no not working for a M-I-L
<POMPOM TOSS> for angel...woohoo
Carlee, I thought nepotism meant more money, not less.
Congrats Angel!
part
i'm looking i'm looking... but i haven't found yet...
heh heh heh --------> Merk
oops, forgot to move my mouse ... into the pb for me. Fortunately that also stands for peanut butter. I'm going to have brkfst, bbl
lol, hungry now Merk? Catch ya later on.
now I don't even feel like doing this grid...am so bummed
Phantom ... parade
Help with the 1st ap5?
ap 5, not together
another phantom: parading
ap 5 - not together
Rgh, duh! Thanks.
OK, Carlee, an I sentence: I feel used when I give this job my best and see other people around me doing less, but earning more. Would it be possible to give me a raise please?
( they can't... that just it... and that why I can't go... cus is family...)
Or perhaps instead of the word 'used' , try unappreciated.
Suggestions welcome from anyone who can provide ideas on how to talk a young man of 3 into letting me take the bandaid off where the evil doctor gave him the shot earlier.
m-in-l needs to sell house to keep business afloat right now...
bribe with peanut butter cups
He's 3. you're in charge. If it's s'posed to come off now, take it off.
Don't talk about it, just do it. Or else leave it on until it's good and germ-ridden and ready to drop off in the bath.
Make it exciting ... get him to want to look what it looks like underneath now.
i'll just put on another batch of wine in a few weeks...get my $ out of them that way
And there you have it. A contrast in motherhood styles!
All good ideas! Merk, it's almost like you've met him! If that or the bribe doesn't work, then Haz, your second suggestion works forme.
phantom infinite
If you gotta' bribe a 3 year old for a simple task that is non negotiable, you'll ne hooped when he's 15.
Well, yes, Carlee, but most of that word IS there.
I hve a grandson of 4 ... been there done that.
G'd morning Haz.
Hello Lori - and everyone else.
In general I agree, Lori, it's just that he already knows it will hurt and i already promised him nobody will hurt him there again right now.
eh..i bribe the simple stuffs....don't sweat the little things.... and when u have to mean business they are scared crapless cus they never have seen the evil mean mommy before and they do ur bidding
I think ignoring it for now and seeing if it comes off on its own is the best first move.
its how I have my 16 year old son wrapped around my little finger...
don't be so sure of that, carlee... that's what I thought too. Mind you, he's not so bad (now 20), but he did fool me on a few things
we all fooled our parents when we were young...
and I took the same road you speak of.
its a right of passage
I suppose you're right. LOL
G'd morning Lady. Can't really afford that level of naiveté when parenting, can ya'..... :-)
Sorry I dropped out for a minute; phone call from the neighbor. Her toddler just dislocated her elbow. This on top of her really young one having the bad reacytion to anaesthetic the other week. Guess fighting with a band aid later could be worse, eh?
well, I was such an easy child to raise, i got caught off-guard once or twice with my own. Nothing major, thank heavens.
again..don't sweat the little stuffs... if they have great friends... and are athletic... and hard working... and u know ( by eavesdropping ) that they hate being around kids who swear..its not all bad...
especially when we as a family have had the year we have had...
we've been through some rough times too, carlee, I can sympathize.
Anyone remember when the last killer grid was, like 4-500+? We're overdue.
anyway... i have to finish getting ready for work...stop at shoppers to get my 4 dove products so I can order pj's for daughter and I
Have a good one carlee.
have a wonderful day, carlee!
Last word before my day can begin. RA 6/21. Can someone clue it for me please???
hello Babblers
ra + Princess ****a
G'd morning pab
and a good morning to you all
G'd morning inge. has your day begun now?

ra* music + m*** skirts
change the last letter to a vowel, inge
thanks taht was it for me
congrats inge
Congrats inge!
Merk, yours won; he suddenlytold me to take the band aid off so he could see the spot, after I suggested it right after you did.
Congrats, Inge!
well it's after 7 and I'm not dressed and ready for work, yet. better get going. have a great day all!
Time I was off. Bye for now!
mornin babblers!
Have a great day Lady, Haz. Catch ya later.
Hi Eva, bye Haz
G'd morning Eva
how is everyonet oday?
Good here Eva, I'm avoiding housework as always. :-) Life good for you and yours?
rather sore from my workout class last night -- it was the final one of the session, so i tried to be good + not slack off, but i think i mightve overdone it!
not too bad today Eva, sorry to hear you're sore
That's a bummer, perhaps some time in the PB, with a rubdown from the cabana boy?
at least it was a fun class -- i might sigh up to take some more!
*perk!* did i hear "cabana boy" ??
Hello Babblers!
lol Eva, G'd morning Aloy
hi LoriP.. interesting grid today..
hi Aloy
hi pabtrek.. diverted now by your icon, lol.. need a closer look
my friends + i have been taking a super-fun pole dance aerobics class for the last 5 weeks -- its really hard!!
ooh, sounds like great exercise, Eva.. saw a thing about pole dance aerobics on TV.. afraid i am not that flexible
but maybe i could work on flexibility if i enrolled
aloy -- im not either! but thankfully, flexibility doesnt come into yet, since we are just at level one (of nine!)
they actually offer a flexibility class too!
Sounds like fun Eva, except for the exercise part.....
im actually the worst in the class -- my arm strength leaves something to be desired, so i cant actually hold myself up long enough to make the spins look good... but its much fun!
nine levels! pab, who is that gorgeous guy? get a different icon when i click on the one in chat
really, well yesterday I had Elvis Presley, Aloy
theyve shown us some of the upper-level moves + they make my jaw drop! such as holding on to the pole with your legs + spinning without using your arms!
rater
lol... that's it.. wonder why he is still here, but then i can't figure out why my flag disappeared either
*oopsie* looks like ill be making a trip to the PB anyway!
holy cow, Eva... I would be flat on the floor!
LOL va, rubdown from the cabana boy, since you're there.
aloy -- ive come close to it!! ive got a few bruises + my hands are SOOOOOO sore from trying to grip the pole... debating if i want to sign up for another session, but if i do, it will probably just be level 1 again until i can build up my strength...
do you wear gloves Eva.. seems you could get calluses
if i keep up with it + get better, ill probably have to...the girl actually said "youll build up calluses and then itll hurt less" but i dont want gross hands!!
i did buy this liquid chalk stuff that helps dry off your hands + gives you better grip
wow.. sounds intense
its just amazing to see how easy they make it look -- i tell ya, i have a whole new respect for women who do that for a living!
yup, that pole would slip right through my fi9.90s
hah, thanks for working that one in there. ;)
lol, couldn't resist..
feel free to work in the 10, the other 9, and 8s, the 7s....
hehe
yes, thanks Aloy, didn't have that one yet
there must be a higher average of points in this puzzle. points per word.
just happened to be hunting it while Eva and I were chatting about calluses so it fit right in
eva, do you go to class once per week or what?
yes, just once a week
Could I have clues for the 1st ra4 and the 1st ra5?
remember the first ra4 - it is a babblet - ra + the choir sang Ave Mar**
Thanks!
yw, Monkey.. don't have the ra5 yet, hunting...
what is a babblet?
So, OK, off topic again, is pain down into the hand to be expected with an upper arm vaccination?
a babblet is a word that shows up often in grids but not in your everyday language
thnx
Phantoms: renege, regent
lol, found the ra5, though my neurons were not firing in ra5 succession
Oh sheesh, it's a normal word again! I keep DOING that! Thanks.
dunno about that pain, Monkey... what type of vaccination?
33 to go and completely at sea.
penalty box with you Aloyisius ;)
hello everybody!
*for you... lol
ooh..... sorry!!!! will join Monkey there
Little Walter had his dip/tet/whoop/etc. today,a nd he says his hand hurts. Seems to come and go. Maybe the doctor hit a nerve.
hi pinkat!!
Hi pink!
hey pink :)
hi pink
+pinkhat, sorry for the typo
hi aloy, monkey, duck and pab....i didn't even notice the typo lol
We all speak fluent typo around here, don't we? ;)
lol, Duck.. fluent typo.. love it
Wish I could claim it was mine... but i picked the term up from a coworker.
I'm back; breakfast was fine, but I'm ready to lurk in the grid again.
LOL
Hi Aloy, I didn't see you here earlier.
hi Merk! haven't seen you for a while.. hope you are back from China?
Good afternoon all. I am looking for the second ra 6, 21 after ra 6, 27... THX
how about this for a phantom in+fi6,27
Read, like the ra6 before it end with a vowel
go it..thx

tx aloy
I have 27 gerund words
hello all
wow--thanks, pab! and hello, ardilla :-)
thought I had 'em all at 23 but will keep looking!
If it were not for the gerund and comparative endings, there would be less than 100 words, I think. At least it sure feels that way.
well, i guess i know what type of word i'm missing! back to the hunt
i have 24 gerunds now so i will go with the 27 count :)
Hi there....a clue please for the ve8/60 please?

I found tons of coupons. I called the local Walmart y'day where we shop all the time, to ask if they accept computer printed, online coupons. They said they do not. But I e mailed the corporate office, and Walmart DOES accept computer printed coupons if the coupons have a bar code and address for redemption, and are used 1 coupon per item per customer.
my first di6 is like the fi6/33
ty pab got it.

so I printed a few to try to use. I'm going to see what happens.
my thinking is they should work, even in the self-service checkout.
my walmarts are always packed. i am in serious walmart country.

Has alloy left??
panini is so a word...but it's italian
My Walmart doesn't have self check out.

Somewhere between 8 and 9, FMitch
Wow that high huh!
nm, got it
I'm not getting the ra. I can only think of radish, which not is not in the grid, is also not a dance. Where's my brain this morning?
Merk, do you have the aggressive ra6,27? Every woman's fear, that one?
ra 6 - ra* music + opp =f out + vowel
merk, think pasta: spaghet***, lingu***
Oops, its the fourth ra 6 I need.
Merk try monkeying around with the last letter with tiles value of 1
No, I can't count ... it's the third. And I've even had my coffee this morning.
Okay, that one is something that some babbler's check every day. If my ra**** goes up, I have completed the grid
I've heard of the Rapunsel story ra vegetable, but it's only got 4 letters.
ta6/21 please
I have that ra 6,24 too. I need the ra 6,21
pab, ends with frying ***
have that, is there only one ta6/21?
I'm getting confused Merk.. If you need the third ra6, take the second one (the aggressive attack) and change the last letter to a vowel, and you have it.
There are 2 pab with only 1 letter dif in them
there are 2 - very similar, change third letter to cons
thanks FMitch
Hello Uni, how goes it?
I finally found it at More Words. Thanks for the help.
I never heard of that one before ... as a veggie or a dance.
I need one more, in6/24 please?
merk - it is also known as broccoli raab in the US
think baseball flosey
in6/24 = another 3 letter word for a pub + gerund
fireworks

Congrats pabtrek!

WTG Pab!!!

WTG Flosey!!!
Yay for flosey too
and congrats Pab
any clues needed before I stop for breakfast?
Would it be inappropriate for me to warn players of a fraud - if you receive in the mail anything from Lifestylerewards, do not destroy it (as we did) you must respond to cancel their offer - we just tossed it and were charged, on our Visa, $196. Don't know how they got our Visa # but we had to destroy card and get new one
when we phoned Lifestylerewards, they told us it is not their policy to give out information as to how they obtained our Visa #
whoa - now that is a new one flosey!
report it to the authorities! it is definitely fraud... and who cares what their policy is, in the US they would have to tell you
sure had me worried for a while - they did cancel it though - Visa informed us that it was fraudulent
they told us it was IL. but Visa told us no it was from QUE.
glad you caught it flosey - I really need to pay more attention to my bank statements!
right kje, must inform police - I always check all visa payments, that's how I found it
here - we would report it to the postal system as well - it is postal fraud in the US - and probably would come under a couple other agencies as well - I would tell everyone!
Flosey, there is a class action lawsuit for people who have been charged by this company (which apparently operates under quite a few names). The lawfirm in question has a tollfree number you can call for more information--here it is: 1-866-981-4800. You can find out more if you google lifestylerewards--check the link on the right hand side of the page.

i am *so* glad i have avoided getting a credit card -- don't want to get caught up in anthing like that
chirp chirp
OK - at an even 25 to go - popping out again - poof
hello everyone! I have 4 words so far, a 6, 7, 9 and 10... that's encouraging!
hia, hia! way to go
( i meant hia nia ) OY
ati ng
I thought you were just enthusiastic :)
phantom : inertia !
ah yes Niamh - remember Bonanza - good family show
How can you live without a credit card though? I get all of my airline tickets using one and I travel a lot for my work. I can't carry that much cash around and many places won't take checks.
I've been trying to keep up with themes lately, they started in 1959 but I figured that's close enough to the 60's theme right?
Fireworks!
YaY Merk!
WTG Merk, good for you
you don't need a credit card to buy an airplane ticket. that's a myth
(i don't travel in a plane, anyway)
clues for the right column i plz
credit cards are pretty handy for renting cars though, it's still possible with a debit or cash but it requires a large deposit
in4/4 (dolphin)
when i worked for a company that gave me an expense account (well, it wasn't called that, but anyway) then of course I used a charge card with company name on it
niamh, yup!
in6/21 - to charge with a crime, and one who in6/21
i've never actually rented a car, but was told that i could do it with $200 deposit
but Gwen, do you carry that kind of cash with you?
See you all tomorrow.
bye Merk, have a great day
hey, why you all assume i need to rent cars and ply on planes? not everyone does those things.
depends on the rental company, I get to travel for work a lot. Thrifty usually charges a $300 deposit
flosey, car rental co said i could send them a check for $200 two weeks in advance and could rent a car then. (if i wanted to). but yes, i do sometimes carry $200 in cash, especially when shopping at estate sales and stuff
ty flosey
(i go to a lot of garage sales, estate sales, etc, for my job)
yw mm
I was much happier before I needed a CC for travel due to work... I'm actually a bit jealous of your debt freeness BDG!
yes, understand Gwen, and some of these places only take cash
most of them only take cash. a few have lately started ot accept cc though, and some will take check if they know you
hiamh, 8-)
niamh, sorry i keep typing you wrong!!
it's alright, it looks like me with a little hat on! :)
i have traveled a lot in a car -- like driving. and i've flown on a plane a few times. airports SUCK
completely agree! airports are horrid
i once almost got a ticket just while picking someone up at airport. sheeesh!
one time it cost me $15 to pick someone up at the friggin airport (long story)
I agree Gwen, you pick up lots of germs while flying but still fastest way to get there
lately I've not parked to pick anyone up. Seattle has a "cell phone waiting lot" where I will wait until I'm called to drive up and get them. That doesn't cost anything.
wow, great idea Niamh
seattle is apparently way cooler than detroit! LOL
chirp chirp
The airport in Dallas charges just to drive through it, apparently the road in and out is "private"... Texans *shakes head*!
lol

jean, you asked for ni4?
is an Old World flycatcher found in the Indian subcontinent, especially in the Lower Himalaya. It is named after its distinctive shade of copper-sulphate blue and has a dark patch between the eyes and above the bill base. They are also interesting among the flycatchers in that they forage above the canopy level and perching on electric wires or exposed tree top branches.
yes I have that
ML was looking for that in4

Bonanza made it's first appearance in 1959, but played through the 60's, I figured it was close enough
My mother told me about them LOL
hubby talks about bonanza amd it longevity all the time drives me nuts
what is the theme song to bonanza - driving me insane!! - was it the one with the burning map?
I grew up with my grandmother, we watched reruns all the time

Hey, Nance!
i hope all of you are well.
hello nance!
hey y'all
define well
Great thanks nance and you?
mentally? physically?
lol - hopefully both kje
ah - well the mentally is in question
ok - i find myself getting nevous about my consultation next tuesday.
What is that for nance?
consultation for what nance?
i have a lump in my left breast :o(
i have an appt with a surgeon
You have every right to be nervous.
NM. Got it. FIREWORKS.
Oh nance,Im sure you will be okay but I do know how you feel
yay lizmac
WTG Lizzie!
Congrats Liz!!
thanks y'all
that's scary, but there are plenty of other reasons for lumps too. I will keep you in my thoughts and send positive energy your way!
Have they done a needle biopsy?
Sorry to hear of your worries, Nance. Must go.
thank you so much
nance I have had 2 different lumps removed,and although there was a question over the 2nd one all was okay
that's great news caitlyn
I will be thinking of you
nance, as one who has been there and has been in remission for 13 years, my heart goes out to you. i will keep you in my good thoughts.
Its great to hear you are okay now joey (((((((joey))))))))
thanks, caitlyn. i appreciate that.
thank you joey & y'all will be in my prayers as well
sorry for the delay. my son called
i'm so happy for you.
i sure can use good news - i seem to be in a funk
10 to go - good time to break - BBL
Best to you nance
catch you later kje
bye kje - gl with the last 10
thanks so much
((((((((nance)))))))) Its easy to say dont worry but I know you will, just remember all your friends in babbleland are sending prayers to you
Bye kje
thank you - y'all are so sweet - this was the furthest thought in my mind & wammmmmmmm
i sure can use every prayer i can get
Have you had a needle biopsy yet?
do they test the lump immediately once it is removed? does anyone know?
no
my very best friend just went through a similar situation, the needle biopsy showed that it was only a swollen gland (well several swollen glands) and they drained them... all better!
With me,they did the needle biopsy, then depending on that they decide if they will remove it .It may be different in the USA so dont take my word for it
phew. that's great for your friend.
i will no more next tuesday afternoon
know - duh
her ducts didn't clear out after having babies I guess.. had something to do with lactation, I'm not sure exactly
i'm so glad it wasn't serious
i'm sure they will keep a close check on her now, won't they?
Next week we will be saying the same thing to you nance
me too, we were worried about it. she is very regimental about her self checks at home now... that's how she found the lump to begin with.
i sure hope so caitlyn - thx
i didn't feel it & the doctor who examined me at my last yearly exam didn't either.
Who found it th4?
lol - the mammo\
also the ultra sound
Well at least it has been found,if it is the worst (God forbid) it has been found early
yes, thank God.
i had no clue as to how this would affect me - i've had to deal with my back for so long, i thought that would be all i would have to worry about. Silly, huh?
I wouldn't call it silly
When I found my 1st one I did the silly thing and ignored it..........not a good idea, I thought it would just go away,after 3 months instead of telling my hubby or friends I told someone at work who marched me to the Drs straight away, so silly you are not
i have too much time on my hands - can't work because of my back, so i can sit around all day & think crappy thoughts - i try not to & when i do, i say a prayer.
i'm gad you friend took charge of you.
*your
don't think crappy thoughts... occupy yourself, do some knitting or baking...
I must go now sorry, will say prayers for you , take care and chin up.See you all tomorrow, bye
lol - i was trying to quilt, but i've slowed up o that - i'll get it together here shortly.
reading is where I escape to when I just can't stop thinking crappy thoughts... I get lost in a book
bye caitlyn
thanks for all the great help from all of you
bye caitlyn & ty again
bye y'all - i'm out of here for a bit - have to do some laundry - i'll keep in touch. Thanks again to everyone

thanks niamh
I lost my list be back in awhile
got the inside out - upside down - not sure anbout the sorryness
in6/21 ... to dictate.then plural.
I'm not sure about the sorryness either... what are you asking?
see clues below for sorry ref's
wow - a page of great clues - thankyou all and goodmorning
hello lyn.
looks to me like the sorry ref's are for the baseball/cricket one
mm dictate?? - guess i should head back to bed
hello lynxxx
I think it was me, I was saying sorry because I kept missing out an * in my clue.
I think I need more coffee, shall I pour anyone else a cup?
clue for the ad 6 and 9 please?
ad 6&9 are british commercials
Hello all. Am not getting the dictate clue.
(9 is gerund)
ad6 is like the i6 which turned upside down, 9 is the gerund version
ty niamh and lynxxx
in6/21 ... in + ***to +vowel.
I think the dictate clue is meant for the in 6&7 that means to charge with a crime?? I'm confused about the dictate too and I have all my I's
obviously there is a different meaning in the UK.
in6/21 to dictate?
well if I just click the little ? I'd know hun... it does mean to dictate also (seriously need coffee)
these makes " " but short
+ vowel
thanks Niamh.
no thank you mo!
no problem Niamh.
okay off the dictionary dot com for dictate
yes scuba, in 6/21 is to dictate or charge with a crime, the 7 is a person who does that stuff
thats a better clue Niamh.
okay it's spelled WRONG the real word for charge has a C - thanks everyone
one more i - above the a
well nobody ever claimed that enable could spell
not that I should ask ever again
try in.4.4 - songline - I found you just ** **me
wow lynxxx -THAT was about my speed! THANK YOU
yes I'm yelling
hi all....clue please for ra6/21...the SECOND one?

fi9
fi9 what you type with
the other ge 5 is the DNA with an extra consonant - a type or classification (of animals or literature, etc)
ge5/14----a movie ge*** like horror ,drama,comedy
ty both
ge5.14 a class of music for example - ends in the prefix we all hate here
ardilla is it the hand appendange + gerund- I get "does not exist" when I try to enter it
no gerund
hand pa4 + what you give a waiter for doing a good job
oh, just got the fi 9 , TY
JBV - its the bit right on the ends of the f6.33
yw
don't understand fi9 clue
missing 2 top r's have re6/18 re9 re8 re5/20 re6/18 re7/28 re10
ok finally off phone and ready to get last 9 words.
wasn't it a song by little stevie wonder?
luv do you have fi6/33?
fi 9, that is - it's what you touch the keyboard with, LuvB
Ardilla - re5.10 and another re6.18
i need one 3rd row N - i've got ni4/6, 4/4, and 5/10...
yes
there are two 5/10's hurshy, brit and US spelling
ty lynxxx
clue for RA6/21?
oh, i was thinking you could only do that with the mi of a similar nature (those are not alt sp's though, those are whole different words)
spec take last ltr from ra6/27, add next vowel
dunno why i had such a thought.
ra6 looks like sexual predator pasta
ra6.21 change the last letter of the ra6.27 to a vowel
ra 6/21 in geometry
is there just one P8 word?
lol Une
thanks much!
add restaurant gratuity
2 p8's
Hursh 2 - pa8.45 & 8.55
ah, ok, thanks
pa8.45 think french gardens
that's the one i have :) but thanks :)
pa8/55 --add vowel to end of 6/21
Hursh - the other one relates to the shine of furniture from old age with gerund end
ooops screwed that all up
ah thanks!
add gerund to 6/21
5 to go!
sorry household distractions --mea culpa
I can't get past 10!

no ardilla, it is not
i got a P!

how many angels can dance on the head of * ***? reverse.
ni4.5 is ni + not mother

good monkeys
I had to answer some email and now I am off to bed. Happy babbling everybody. *poof*

Oh i was entering words gleefully left and right thought i was the samrtest thing going. Tonight is what I get for being so smug
when you left - she sank
just read about a 90 year old who just published his 1st novel - gives me hope - LOL
lol AK !!
go kje !!
words weren't easy, but because the words were so unusual they were easier to spot...my biggest hangup with this game so far is remembering to plug in all the different endings for a word...i miss so many...
well - pride and falls AK
and I am falling very far into a deep well tonight
that's where the clues help me, cord... they tweak my end*** ne5s (and ne5 end***s)
but we are here to catch you AK - aussie has life vests

you can use them in the words, but not as a strating letter
hmm...don't want to really eat dried foods for an anniversary...maybe camping wasn't the best idea
yes, marilyn, the 0 means there are zero words that begin with that particular tile
Yahooo JBV!
take canned foods then, soups, etc....
that is not the best strategy BTW, marilyn, though we all occasionally try - LOL
or a starting letter even !!
thanks everyone - see you tomorrow! i'm off to the rest of my life tonight....
WTG jbv
OH zero words that BEGIN with that letter ??? but the letter is still in use >>??
bye jbv
anniversary - requires a comfy place - what are you doing camping!!!
how long will meats typically keep in a cooler? not long, i guess, right?
cord, when I used to camp (many moons ago), I'd always stick a few rock-hard frozen things in the cooler (like ground meat or stacked steaks). they help keep other less-robust foods cool for longer, and they're a treat to eat later in the trip when they thaw out.
not a week
cordelia pack your meats frozen
Yes, MArilyn--you can use that tile but no words start with it--for 0/0
use canned meats
I missed all the ge clues !!
but I'm just skittish - I've had food poisoning from chicken that had sat out too long once - I thought I was dying
ak and lady...excellent idea...i want to have at least one good meal while there
ge 4 - DNA carrier
ge 5 - add a hump
first ta6 please?
ge 5 - a music type, rock, jazz...
ge 5 - type of music...or art... french word I think
ge 5 ge + fish ne+
I didn't say to pack chicken, now did I, kje?... only if you're going to eat it right away.
Scrabs, how is Callie?
i'm thinking some nice thick steaks will do the trick
no you didn't lady...*slinks to corner*
Callie's left hind leg is weak, but she is hopping around the house still and eating a lot, so she is happy.
(and cook it thoroughly) ... or cook it before you leave and eat it first night.
Thanks for the clues !!!
what does ge 5 mean ?
pa 8/45 please
Oh, I am so glad, Scrabs! People were asking earlier this evening...
ge word, with 5 letters...

hi, autumn
Knitter - have you put any more thought into sharing your wool with me? Maybe we can trade some
Oh.. thanks Lindrickway
Hahaha, AK--you just have to laugh, and it is a funny storty to tell forever, well, not to your parents.
i accidently put a nasty cu 4 (and the plural) into the chat one night immediately after some one popped in to say hello
help with the pa 8/45 please :)
i would tel my parents scrabs!! LOL
OMG... timing is everything... how funny!
I am watching the movie, "Gone Baby Gone". It takes place in Boston so they talk funny. Do you talkfunny, Pam?
woohoo i have greyed out a whole column!!
share wool ?? gasp! I am selfishly hoarding all the wool i can gather - never know when there might be a shortage hehehe
LOL ak
scrabs those of us in Boston do NOT talk funny, the rest of you do
oh, aknit.. that is kind of funny
I was very proud of myself the other day. I walked around Zellers with this bag of wool for about 45 minutes, then put it back just before I left. Took vast amounts of self-discipline
LOL autumn!!
Haha, AK!
moon how could you put it back, i could never
i guess I am slow, I don't get the joke.. cu fours ??
or should i have said nev-ah
it is a four letter word starting CU marilyn!!
aknitter--will you be reading the friday night knitting club?
okay, have finished eating so will concentrate on the grid. later.
autumn, I'm guessing it was less about self-discipline than about not finding the other things you were looking for...
Pam have not seen that
I did that at Zellers just yesterday.
what is zellers
no-Lady. I had everything on my list, plus a few extra things. Just running out of room for things while the house is under renovation.
it is supposed to be a good read, aknitter
in 6/24 please?
oh you can always squeeze in more wool, it is compactable
oh you can always squeeze in more wool, it is compactable
Zellers is sort of like a higher end walmart
yeah, knitter. Tell hubby that....
ah, well good for you then, autumn! aknitters, it's a department store wannabe supermarket, like a walmart, but owned by a higher-end affiliate
in6/24 - think baseball periods
maybe zellers is like JC PEnny's?
you think autumn?
ty natasha
oh---I know....Zellers is like SEARS!
sort of LOL!!
funny wool story. i had bought a lot of wool one day and was working away on a project. went shopping and bought more wool and tried to sneak it in without getting caught. husband saw the rather large purchase and said what more yarn? i said no, same stuff i have been using ... he is color blind and could not tell the diff. i used that "same yarn" to knit a lot of things before he figured it out
too bad the Bay doesn't start with A, eh? then we'd have it covered A-Z
LOL aknitter
Good for you, AK

three lumps, no milk and... *thinking* sugar cookies or brownies?
good clue bubba!
Night, Dorens
Wy'd I miss that?
stid -- I'm a Libra, so of course my response will be... Yes!
could i get help with the pa8's?
*grin* three -- of each!!! *watching woulf wolf things down*
pa8= pa* for the course + ***** Haute, Indiana
wtg scrabbs & good night
pa + what can are made of + gerund
The last pa8 is the gerund form of the 6
pa 8 #1 is a french word for a gorgeous symmetrical garden. start with the pa 4/5 and end like french for earth
OMG! I just noticed how many "more than 7 letter words" are in the grid. Yikes!
or what jellen said... LOL
pa8 french for ground floor
thanks jellen and stid
go autumn!!!!
2nd pa is the 5/12 above it with gerund
Good Night all!
brb
sweet dreams bubba!
hi mama woulf bubba autumn harp
gnight bubba
thanks, got all the p's
go harp!
hey ardilla! how's the leg?
gn bubba
ra5/14 please?
it's doing better still no walking for 2 more weeks
quick gw
think IRT
good for you ardilla
ra 5/14: quick, fast
ve8/60?
wow! I must be out of practice to have missed that one!
ve 8: a type of window blinds
happens to the best gw
how about the other ve8 sitd?
oh no -- that's the other one... you want frnech "green" + imperonal pronoun + the place ambulances take people
ve8= jury result - c + comparative ending
I like jellen's clue better
thanks
Thanks, stid :-)
how sebastian, woulf? he's two now, yes?
Yes he is stid and he celebrated by giving up his pacifier without any prompting from us!
wow. good for ALL of you!
oh, i want a new flag... brb
the second ra6,21? after the crime?
He has gotten on a 'big boy' kick -- all you have to do to convince him that he is doing something a big boy would do and he cooperates
ra6= same first four letters + Good **ght, Irene
second ra 6/21: change last letter of crime to a vowel
ra 6 ....veg and leaves of beets
i imagine as a parent of a 2-something year old you count your blessings!
It started when I decided to get him pullup diapers... he saw that as a big step up.... he isn't ready for the potty yet, but I think by summer he will start using it
oh, those were good days... when the children really wanted to grow and improve. For some reason teens spend huge amounts of energy on trying to convince people they're ready for adult privileges, but not much on developing skills to handle adult responsibilities
thanks
*shrug* or so is my experience
re8?
or when they are 9 and tell you how the other kid kicked them in the ear totally forgeting the " I tried to hit him"
You better believe it, harp!
10...
go ardilla
9...
Go ardilla!
Having trouble monkeying in the ni4/5. Is it in front of my face? Any clues?
And his language skills have grown quite abit though he still doesn't verbalise everything yet, but he is very polite these days -- he says please and thank you on his own
re 8: to put sticky stuff to close the package again
Teens are stuck. When we are children, we have milestones....potty, tricycle, bicycle, spelling, reading, etc.
ni 4/5 is like kelly ri** who co-hosts a morning talk show
8...
ni dog takes a ni* plus vowel
thanks!

Night stid.
ra 6/21 # 1 please
some 30 years ago, I did a LOT of baking. I miss fresh bread - both regular and sweet breads (I did all yeast)
ty for the clues all.. time to put kid to bed... gnight
ra6/21: related to 1/2 the circumference of a circle
yupyupyup!
i just found that, ra6, measure of part of a curcle
circle OY
About the only bread I don't like is soda bread. Makes my teeth skiddy!
LOL, gwen - getting late in Mich
fireworkZ ~~~ !!!
thanks
I love white bread made with unbleached flour & wheat germ
brb
slather on the butter while hot ... :drool:
yw, ruru
i just had some bread with slivers of olives in it. too weird for me LOL
to this day, I refuse to buy bleached flour for any purpose whatever
doesn't sound good to me, either, gwen
why would anyone bleach flour? oh, of course, the bleach lobby!
to make it pretty & white, gwen
although i do like white rice better than brown rice, i'll admit
worst is, you can't tell the difference between bleached & unbleached unless you take it out in the sunshine
tyger, yeah, i did know that actually LOL
I didn't for years but Memphis is so backward It is hard to find. And then I read somewhere that there is no difference so I'm confused a bit.
bleached flour is exposed to chlorine gas
i no longer work in a restaurant and i no longer need to handle flour. ever. hooray!
hi gwen
got sidetracked even more. Trying to start packing for my business trip on Friday. Will see you on the 26th!
hiya hoot
Wally world should have unbleached there, hoot. they do here in Jax, MS
ever? Don't you bake?
bake? me? of hell no
evening...got a late start...22 more to go..need help on the ra6/21 and the first re6/18 pls, ty
Well, Brandon, actuallly :)
(oh hell no, i meant) OY
Never thought to look there. Not around the corner so I don't go to often. Will try it next week when I get paid.
but i do a lot of stuff on the top of the stove, and i bake chicken on a bed of rice at least once a week, yum!!
1st re6/18: don't throw away - what IRS says do with tax returns
Kroger should have it, too
they do here
i even invented a recipe a few weeks back. but to be honest i hate cooking (but I'm good at it) and i don't get all that much joy out of eating, either
that's a shame, gwen
food should be enjoyed - the good stuff, at least
thanks for the re6/18 got the 9 also.......now the ra6/21
I have a Kroger & a Schnucks and they are both switching alot of stuff to their own name. Pain in the butt since I don't know who the supplier is. Remember, Memphis is backward (about 1958) and doesn't know from healthy!
ra6/21: same 1st 3 letters as ra6/27 - Italian ending, like for tortell***
i do not have "normal" tastebuds. i like foods that most other poeple think are "bland"
people (OY)
Ok I have 50 words left!! helppppppppp
v e help please the ve 8?
I need to go to bed. son wants me to go with him on business tomorrow AM, so I won't be able to sleep in (2nd day running) :( :(
got it.....19 more...be back if i need more help
Well I'm not into chilies on everything but I'm not bland either. Herbs & spices do wonders
sorry about that tyger - but thanks for the heads up and sleep well

hoot, i'm sure it's tasty, proably, but i would not like it! LOL
West, the icon clue for tomorrow is the 70s.
If I'm in a real hurry I cut the meat into bite size pieces and do it in a wok. Then you add the meat with the garlic and continue
marilyn are any of these helping?
You could try it with the broccoli :D
thanks bea

that the 1770s or the 1870s? 8-)
sorry maybe a better cluer could help
Little far west but if your ever down here come on by
lol book
no, i do not cook my veggies. at all. not even steam. yech.
I don't know the words they are looking for, I have tried lots of combinations
anything has to be better than the 1970's
are you using the list?
the babble clues
?
lickety's list
that's the one I use there are others
Ican't find the clues either
sort of this is my 1st and last time playing
tells the first 2 letters and the point count
Hi there marilyn! You can get lots of clues: click on the tiny green link at the bottom for Lickety's Babble Clues Lickety gives you the first two letters of each word, plus how many letters in the word, plus the word's point value The point value sometimes helps you figure out if you need a word with a high-scoring letter in it, and things like that
the list tells you 2 letters and how is that helpful ?
don't give up
Oh found it
tells the first 2 and then the number of letters in the word
for example: I could clue the word example by saying ex7
marilyn, the game is base don boggle. you try to find all the words in the grid. there's only one grid and it stays up all day
i figured that out b4
I was playign scramble in facebook and soemone said to try babble
so you have ex and know it's 7 letters, I had ad and 5 letters and tried 20 combinations and still have 50 words left
hmmm, i've never played scramble. is it anything like boggle? (or babble?)
babble is cooperative and fun and there are really nice people here. Pull up lickety's list and ask for help
I don't know what a mine opening is or a brit commercial...
ad6, take another word for a commercial and cut it off after 6 letters
Licketys list or licketys babble clues ?
OMG
scramble is 3 minutes a game, and you find all the words you can !
I'm back - Firefox decided to do an update and threw mw out! Now who needs hekp?
ah, that is more like a real game of boggle, then. I must try scrample, too! thanks
i also enjoy a fast game of boggle. there's another one at wordsplay.net -- 3 minutes a game. loads of fun. no chat room over there
hi all. marilyn, this is an all day game. at least for me. run away if you can! run.
i'm going over to facebook and looking for scramble. you guys might not see me for a while LOL
see ya gwen
