hi mrp - how are you doing?

my freezer is now filled with 120 iceblocks!

why

fo 5,18 ??

just read your profile - you will be in my prayers - what a lot to go thru!

am doing good thank melon. worked today, got told off for something or another... don't remember, couldn't care. I think it had to do with spending too much money on a cake cooling rack... it was $8

OK weirdest phantom yet - cardamom

the school is holding a xcountry on thursday, and I have a deep feezer... so I have half the ice blocks till then

oh, mrp you are profligate ;)

That makes sense

ANd if people want to bitch at you for volunteering turn around and tell them with the way your arm is they can get stuffed you are helping out that is important and maybe they should bitch about someone that does nothing for the school

2:22 am

there are more that do nothing then something!!!

you are right infern... i ignored it, ignored the bull... and when I got asked, "is everything ok??" I answered, "I am just processing things right now".

excacty

sleepy - bye for a while {poof}

Night Melon

2:24 am

My problem is i don't play well with others

See you all later

2:26 am

2:33 am

hey sprite!

2:33 am

shdy! LONG time no see, how are you?

2:33 am

good, thanx, how are you?

2:34 am

not too great myself and my love broke down yesterday, depressed and overtaxed, he has been crying all mother's day long.

2:35 am

i fully understand, sprite, that's why i've been gone so long, sadness

2:36 am

(((shdy))) am still counting my blessings, but darn, I sure could use a break from the bad things happening.

2:37 am

yes, it sucks, been hurting since January, but hoping to see the light some day (the end of the tunnel sort)

2:38 am

yep, that light... and it better not be another train ;) Am very sorry you are having it tough, shdy. Will think of you and send good vibes your way!

2:39 am

my tough is months old, yours appears to be new, i will send every good vibe i can find your way, sprite

2:41 am

by the way, giggling at the train comment, cute

2:41 am

lol, nah, it is just one new tough with the rest, which have been going on for years now. Thanks for the good vibes, they will help! *hug*

2:42 am

well, if having a stranger send love matters, then this stranger is sending love

ne body have the mo 7,36 ??

2:43 am

love always finds its mark, shdy, and you are not a stranger, but a babble buddy :)

2:44 am

true, sprite, i know i was happy to see you show up, we have "talked" in the last year or so

??????

2:45 am

mo 7-- butterfly: mo***ch and **ddy sang bass moma sang tenor

2:46 am

exactly, it forms a bond, even if it is a distant one without knowing eachother fa4 to fa4. I really hope you will find your way to that light soon :)

2:46 am

hi marilyn, and hi BabbleRabble

2:46 am

some day, sprite, some day, and hi br

2:47 am

2:48 am

BabbleRabble, who or what is the porcupine pal?

2:48 am

2:48 am

2:50 am

On the other hand, the sun is always shining somewhere in Babbleburg

2:50 am

Congrats marilyn

2:50 am

**smiling at the cheery doug**

2:51 am

2:52 am

Grayed the r...woo-hoo!

2:52 am

2:55 am

2:56 am

2:56 am

lively and beautiful

2:57 am

oh, well, sure!!!

2:57 am

Hello all.

2:57 am

que is in the grid, being ornamental, darn thing

2:57 am

hey Jellen *hug*

2:57 am

I read a long time ago that the Vikings worshipped savage gods named Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, etc.

2:57 am

i've always been lively, and any parent calls their kids beautiful!

2:57 am

close enough, Doug

2:57 am

I suppose that's why Monday doesn't count as a word...

2:58 am

((jellen)) how are things?

2:58 am

monday is lunday, doug

2:58 am

nah, it is because you silly english speaking people want it capitalised.

2:59 am

Things are great, pink! Waiting for Tim to get home from work.

2:59 am

this grid is one H short of a king.

2:59 am

sheesh, sprite, sorry for lingual incapacities!!!!!!!

2:59 am

The book I read it in was 1066 And All That, which totally warped my 8-year-old mind at the time...

2:59 am

hi jellen!

2:59 am

*giggles* In Dutch, maandag would be valid.

3:00 am

Hi shdy!

3:00 am

que es maandag?

3:00 am

good to see you jellen

3:00 am

maandag = Monday (in dutch)

3:01 am

duh, (shdy is stoopid american)!

3:01 am

you can tell what I'm thinking about when I say I see a phantom yoni...

3:01 am

we cannot all be dutch, shdy, lol

3:02 am

what's on a man's mind... oh yes, of course ;)

3:02 am

my heritage is more welsh than dutch

3:02 am

ah, now THERE is a language. Welsh. Woot.

3:03 am

yes, woot! unfortunately i was born to a texan dad in saudi arabia, so any kind of genealogical knowledge was lost on me!

3:04 am

I have this phantom ending today, -ion. It is driving me nuts. I even saw psion. And minion. To name a few.

3:04 am

Simon is in the grid...could be the apostle, the sorcerer, or the American Idol judge...

3:04 am

but you got other knowledge instead, no doubt, shdy!

3:04 am

jeez, sprite, now i see question, and there isn't even a t!

3:05 am

Simon says... all enter words!

3:05 am

ah, if I could only have a T to go with that F, I would be on a roll!

3:06 am

yes, the muslim call to prayer is a part of my childhood...Allah -u -akbar

3:07 am

that is special too

3:08 am

saw something on the history channel today about mosques in Cairo, heard the call to prayer, and went right back to my childhood, where that was heard numerous (5) times every day

3:09 am

BabbleRabble, thanks for the mo7! Finally got it.

3:10 am

it always amazes me how sounds and smells can awaken memories just like that. Was it nice to go back to, your childhood, shdy? Good memories?

3:10 am

yes, sprite, it was like being 5 again, so innocent and comfortable!

3:11 am

lovely!

3:11 am

yes!

3:12 am

oh, btw, I LOVE your icon, shdy. LOL!

3:12 am

oh, i love maxine, love her, love her!

3:15 am

am wondering if I should wake hubby... he is sleeping in the living room, which means it was either too hot upstairs for him, or he couldn't sleep for other reasons... but it is 10.15 am and my kids are hungry.

3:15 am

occasionally I run into other Babblers with Maxine, usually lbd or Scarlet, and life takes on a certain purpose, lol!

3:16 am

hehehe, yes, I can understand that!

3:16 am

wake the hubby, so he can feed the kids!

3:17 am

hubby broke down yesterday, seems to be overstressed and depressed. He cried all day long, without really knowing why. Hence (another phantom) the doubt.

3:17 am

understand that, completely

3:18 am

i live in depression, for no reason, just depressed

3:18 am

perhaps I can slip in quietly and get some easy breakfast stuff upstairs. I can be very quiet if need be.

3:19 am

Syd Barrett of Pink Floyd is in the grid, in a disjointed, disconnected sort of way...

3:19 am

wow, seeing what loved ones have to deal with

3:20 am

(((((shdy)))) are you wrestling with it on your own? I hope your doctor is helping you, and perhaps medication for a while?

3:21 am

no meds yet, just lots of complete inability to function ....but i think i'm getting better, note how long i've been away?

3:22 am

lol... reminds me of The Wall. As a dutch kid, I always heard: "another break in the wall" and I couldn't grasp the meaning at all.

3:22 am

i'll pull through somehow

3:22 am

oh yes, I noticed, shdy, and it is definitely a great sign you are back here now. Still, depression is a b*tch. Is your doctor helping you?

3:23 am

what doctor?

3:24 am

you will, no doubt, shdy. I have gone through severe depression for a couple of years, and am now slowly coming out of it. With the help of our family doctor, a therapist and medication, and my inborn sheer stubbornness and refusal to ever give up, lol.

3:24 am

sprite, i live in the us, i can't afford a doctor!

3:25 am

jeez, I am not making myself clear, at all. What I want to say is: doing it all by yourself is way too difficult. Please allow yourself to accept some help to pull you through the worst parts, so you will have some specks of energy left when you really need them.

3:26 am

There seems to be some vigorous debate as to whether SSRI's work at all...

3:26 am

darn, your social security really sucks, doesn't it?

3:26 am

i'll try, sprite, i will

3:27 am

I can vouch for their working. Problem is to find the right one for each person.

3:27 am

warm wind alert

3:27 am

i make just enough to live on, so don't qualify for any help. Plus raised not to ask for that kind of help

3:29 am

but this is a happy space, so let's stop griping!

3:29 am

Sending happy thoughts in your general directions, sprite and shdybr8...

3:30 am

ty, doug

3:31 am

both make it very very hard to get help, shdy. And I am not pretending to know what would be best for you. Just want to say: been there, done that, still doing it... and it is hell to do it on your own. I hope you have friends supporting you... perhaps one of them can look into ways for you to get some help, if you cannot find the energy to do so? Anyway, *hugs* from me.

3:31 am

aw Doug, thanks. Much appreciated.

3:33 am

thanks, sprite, my only friend is my no-longer boyfriend. That's why I'm online talking to strangers. Thank you so much for caring

3:34 am

Hi all. So far I've found a brand of yougurt, a famous movie actor and about 63 almost words, none of which count as words....thinking of scraping this grid and going to my husbands folk music concert.

3:34 am

for what it is worth, I am here for you, shdy, and not just me in the babble chat. If you want to, at any time, please feel free to use my email addy in my profile (leave out all spaces). I can listen :)

3:36 am

lol Marmar, poor you. I'd go to the concert. Grid will be here when you return, if you would feel like it then ;)

3:38 am

Shdybr8, what time is it for you?

3:39 am

sprite, thank you so much, just for caring

3:39 am

I am going downstairs, hubby is awake now. Back later. Shdy, loved chatting with you. Take care of you. Bye all, will be back later!

3:39 am

bye sprite, have a lovely evening

3:40 am

Bye Spritey, have a good day!

3:40 am

nearly 4 am, marmar

3:40 am

Good Morning Babble Room ,good morning mar

3:40 am

haven't met you before, hi

3:41 am

Yiyiyiyi, that's early...or late....I read back a little in the chat. I will keep you in my prayers if that's OK with you.

3:41 am

Hi Maria!

3:41 am

Marmar thanks for info, getting all ready for the trip

3:42 am

No we haven't met! But very happy to do so now!

3:42 am

thanks, marmar

3:42 am

I have yours too Maria, told my husband about you, we just marvel at how the internet throws people together! So cool!

3:43 am

marmar, where are you from?

3:43 am

My please Shdybr8. What does you online name mean?

3:43 am

im up early,just cant sleep,hope you all had a good Mothersday ,

3:43 am

I'm from Texas, (like you dad) but have been in Germany for 11 years and will stay here. Married a German.

3:44 am

my dogs, marmar, shady and bear, the 8 is just a number

3:44 am

Great! We ahve a mini schnautzer, Monty, he lights up our lives.

3:45 am

we had a miniture schnauzer but lost him a few years back

3:45 am

i love my dogs, and have a third, got him after i made the name

3:45 am

Maria, mother's day was nice, very quiet. Great church service, lazy afternoon and the beautiful weather didn't hurt at all. I hope the weather is like this when you get here....it's been perfect.

3:46 am

thats what im wrestling with ,what to pack

3:46 am

Arent they great Yvo? Ours is so funny, a little stuborn but very loveable.

3:47 am

you might know we have a tendency to pack all but the kitchen sink

3:47 am

Shdy, what's the third's name?

3:48 am

Baby is Nico, although he's the biggest, 86 pounds

3:48 am

I know that characteristic, my husband does that too. Just remember you have to lug it everywhere you go over here, should motivate you to pack light. And if you need something you didn't bring, you can pick it up here...or?

3:48 am

Good Lord, what kind of a canine is that?

3:48 am

the mutt kind

3:49 am

all of my dogs are mutts, and rescued from Hell

3:49 am

absolutly right ,but who listens????

3:50 am

Cute I bet. How nice for you. I would love another small dog to play with Monty but our living space is pretty cramped. How great that you recused them. my brother and his wife have 5 I think, also all rescued.

3:51 am

Steffen is the clothes horse, I'm perfectly fine in most situations with a comfy white t-shirt and a pair of blue jeans...I would have done well in the 50's!

3:52 am

the 3 i have tax me financially, but reward me emotionally. my smallest is 46 pounds (my little girl)

3:53 am

shdybr8 my best wishes for you i know only to well ,how one feels to be losing someone ,

3:53 am

yes, yvo, that is hard, i prefer not to think about it

3:55 am

back already, daughter wanted to go out with her breakfast, son wants to watch tv, hubby went to bed...

3:55 am

Hi Sprite, I'm still here, got to chatting with the girls here, very good company. Folksmusik will have to wait.

3:56 am

busy house, sprite, glad to see you back!

3:56 am

And my kids just watch bibi blocksburg and are now playing "witches" so I guess we're staying here.

3:57 am

hi Yvo! Yes Marmar, great company here :D Yvo, remind hubby about the joke of the couple that went travelling and quarrelled while packing about the amount of stuff they took...

3:57 am

thats funny

3:57 am

hi sprite

3:58 am

and then, finally at the train station, the husband says: "I wish we had packed the piano too!" Wife goes mad again: "WHy are you starting the whole fight again!" "I am not,"he says. "I really wish we had the piano with us now. THe train tickets are on top of it."

3:58 am

im a one finger typer so it takes a little while for the answer

3:58 am

Truthfully, I watched it too, those movies are CUTE and well made.

3:59 am

Oh that's good Sprite! I have to remember that.

3:59 am

no problem Yvo!

3:59 am

there you go ,evrything but !!!!1

4:00 am

well its 4AM, another earthquake 7.in china

4:00 am

when will all this tragedy end

4:01 am

wow, that is a tough one. Poor people :(

4:01 am

not too soon, but maybe when people get nice

4:02 am

There sure has been lots of seismic activity lately, hasn't there? Think it's leading up to something bigger?

4:03 am

shdybr8 i think the same at times ,

4:03 am

so much meaness in the world

4:03 am

so much meaness in the world

4:04 am

oops i knew this would happen

4:04 am

lol, also not a problem. It was worth reading twice. But there are also many good people in this world.

4:04 am

most of which play babble

4:05 am

I think the good people have to start being more vocal, you know what they say about the squeeky wheel?

4:06 am

i think ill go and make myself a good cup of coffee and get ready to go swimming ,mar ill call you, or ill catch you here on babble before i go,i wish you all a good day

4:06 am

is it a proverb?

4:06 am

Yvo, have a great swim and a lovely day/evening.

4:07 am

OK Maria, have a fantastic day!

4:07 am

before you go?

4:07 am

looks like Yvo goes to Germany soon!

4:07 am

Yvo = Maria??

4:08 am

Oh Sprite, it goes "the squeeky wheel gets the oil", so, you know, the one who causes problems in the classroom gets the teachers attention

4:08 am

Thank you kindly ,yes a trip ,yes Maria

4:08 am

Yes, I thought the name Maria is so pretty! Had to use it.

4:08 am

my daughters Name was Yvonne

4:08 am

Maria is a beautiful name. But I like Yvo too.

4:09 am

was?

4:09 am

allah -u -akbar

4:09 am

Touché sprite. Oh Maria, I didn't make that connection.

4:09 am

Hello fellow babblers. Could someone please help me with hints to fo 5/18 and mo 7/36. I'm completely stuck.

4:09 am

4:09 am

4:10 am

its a couple of years now but days like mothersday and others do me in

4:10 am

hi noctua, yes, those are tough. fo5 is a warm wind. Or a thing to blow your hair dry with.

4:11 am

I bet, Maria. That pain will never heal completely. Am so sorry for your loss.

4:11 am

Fo5: enemy + Pooh loves *o*ey.

4:12 am

anyway you all be happy ,and im up to my good cup of tschibo!!!!!

4:12 am

bye Maria!

4:12 am

I feel a little lost on Mother's day too since my mother is gone, but must be harder in your case Yvo. I'm sorry. Best wishes for today, it's Pfingsten Monday! (don't know if I spelled that right.)

4:13 am

nite, sprite, think it's time

4:13 am

mo7: a kingdom can be called a mo***chy + not night but **y.

4:13 am

4:14 am

4:15 am

4:15 am

4:15 am

Good day Ishult!

4:15 am

So could you hint me for my last word, mo 7/36?

4:15 am

could use a hint, that is???

4:15 am

sorry, don't have the 8 yet

4:16 am

noctua, already did, see 4.13 am

4:16 am

So I'll just keep looking.

4:16 am

cr8 and you might get a **** if you dont get it.

4:16 am

and it was a great clue... thanks noctua, never would have got it otherwise

4:16 am

hi lyn, and thanks!

4:16 am

hello everyone

4:17 am

and hi kls, yw :)

4:17 am

hey lynxxx

4:18 am

Got it! Thanks! Its only the second time I see fireworks. Am well pleased.

4:18 am

yayyyyy noctua, well done! Congrats on the second victory!

4:18 am

Congrats Noctua !

4:18 am

I'm going to check out now. Best wishes to one and all, happy babbling! Way to go Noctua!

4:19 am

bye Marmar

4:19 am

congrats noctua... i am also looking for my second, but have a ways to go yet!

4:19 am

bye Marmar, have a lovely Tweede Pinksterdag :)

4:19 am

go kls goooo

4:20 am

translation Sprite? of the Tweede etc

4:20 am

thanks sprite,i joined over a year ago, and disappeared for a very very long time, came back and got my first completed last week - fingers are crossed for today!

4:21 am

Dank U

4:21 am

Tweede = second. Pinksterdag = day of Pentecost. I think you call this day Whitmonday

4:21 am

I just checked the meaning of my last word. If I go on playing this game I will end up with a very interesting vocabulary. In this way I can tell myself that I'm not wasting my time but actually studying.

4:22 am

glad to have you back, kls!

4:22 am

noctua, that is how I justify my playing too, lol. I know SO many useless but very interesting words now :)

4:22 am

Sounds right Sprite...I was having visions of a parade of ladies in special pink tweed suits

4:23 am

now that would be an interesting sight, lyn

4:25 am

Yes sprite. I will be trying to figure out how to get some of those weird words slipped into casual conversation next time I need to speak English (I am Danish).

4:26 am

a worthwhile goal, noctua :) Ywis, my inia loves to steal my etui...

4:27 am

Keep it coming sprite :)

4:28 am

had to jump a few hahas to catch my anoa though. It was that my nene told me where to find it...

4:28 am

it was hiding behind the na4!

4:31 am

BBL just having a bite to eat

4:32 am

bye for now, lyn

4:36 am

I'm not quite sure what you are saying sprite. But it sure livens up the conversation. I can see I have to do some checking with a dictionary. :)

4:38 am

all babblets, noctua, lol. inia = hairy-nosed dolphin. Etui (or etwee) is a needle case. Ywis = for sure. haha = a low fence, to mark the boundary between lands. anoa = ox. nene = hawaiian goose. The na4/4, singular and plural, are greek little temples.

4:50 am

I see I have a log ways to go. So I'll just have to bable some more. Though unfortunately I have to do some boring stuff like tidying up and cleaning. But I will probably keep coming back to the game. Its really addictive.

4:50 am

I agree. Housework will suffer... but we will love to see you back :)

4:53 am

And I'll love to be back. It's very nice that it is not just a game but also an opportunity to meet with some people. I have aspergers syndrom which means I'm not all that comfortable with other people. And it took me some time to dare to write in the chat. But I find myself suddenly chatting away which is quite an achivement for me. So thanks for being so nice.

4:54 am

would fo5+y be a fake fo5?

4:54 am

it is great you are chatting and I love meeting you. If mrP comes back on when you are: her son has the same syndrom. He plays too sometimes, a wonderful kid.

4:54 am

lol hursh, yes, it would.

4:54 am

hi all

4:55 am

hi ardilla

morning babblers

4:56 am

hi Nanette

4:57 am

Thanks for now sprite. I got to get on with things. But hope to chat again and perhaps meet mrP. My daughter has also aspergers.

4:58 am

then bye for now, noctua, and hope to see you soon again.

4:58 am

hi nono

the grid is small but looks challenging

4:58 am

I think mrP will love to chat with you too. You both know the difficulties and the beauty of aspergers!

4:59 am

it is, Nanette, to me anyway. I still have 12 left and am struggling.

am at the other end sprite with only 13 words found and struggling

5:01 am

lots of words that are not common, for me anyway.

5:08 am

fireworks. And kje: a lovely vid! How smart, all those palindromes!

5:09 am

sprite would you tell me what the 7's start with?

5:10 am

an, mo. And the 8 is a compound.

5:10 am

yes, i found the 8 myself

wtg sprite!!

5:11 am

got the an

5:12 am

there are clues for the mo in the chat, hursh, it is a weird word. Related to mint. Must be off now, *hugs* and have a lovely day and/or night all of you.

bye bye sprite, have a nice day

5:18 am

mo *** ch butterfly plus **ddy not mommy

5:19 am

thanks pap, would have aged trying to get that on my own

5:19 am

no problem, I found the clue in the chat earlier. that's how I got it

i just came across the fi pair ... don't know what it means (english is not my mothertongue) ... but can say that you have to use one of the less frequent letters of the alphabet ... it sounds like a fruit ... but perhaps it's spanish .. or french?

6:23 am

6:25 am

7:16 am

7:17 am

...of course, I didn't know who I was looking for....

7:17 am

8:27 am

Let's have a moment of silence for Jill and her elderly cat, Susie, that will be euthanized this AM. This will be a very tough day for Jill, as it was for me on Saturday with old Bunny Callie.

8:27 am

You're welcome, kls.

8:27 am

hi vic - from asgreen and I - she isn't allowed to chat!

8:27 am

Hi kls

Okay, AsGreen and kje. I understand. =)

Oh bother. I can't sit down to a nice grid without something coming up. Back in a mo.

8:29 am

Look at you, Vicuna! I love your icon....

'In vino veritas' by Tipsi Tolkein.

8:37 am

I think we should all make tampon necklaces and wear them in honor of being uterless

8:38 am

Funny, Lex.....oh, the stuff that women must cope with, starting as young as age 10 or so.....we are a strong and resilient breed!! ("I am woman, hear me roar...")

8:52 am

Sorry I'm so out of it with the chat, friends. My darlings have decided they want to sew quilts. As a quilter myself I naturally wish to encourage them and get them started on the right path. But it's a VERY high-maintenance activity.

8:53 am

Perfect entry Uni

8:53 am

yes

8:53 am

omg, I walked away, and what happened to the chat??? lol

8:53 am

SO any time I'm failing to keep up with conversation, I'm probably threading needles again.

8:53 am

Thanks, FM. Just wanted to contribute.

8:53 am

ANd thanks for compliments on neckline! +)

8:53 am

See, if I were with you, Vicuna, I'd tell your children what to do. I'm very au fait with any and all sewing techniques.

9:00 am

looking back...

9:00 am

oops - duh - PB for me

9:00 am

Those bugs come around my house in june and it's like watching the lawn fly - they are beautiful but SO distructive!!!

9:00 am

got it - working on mi6 now

9:01 am

mi 6 - to write badly?

9:01 am

Interesting lex

9:02 am

we even put out special traps to get them away from all the plants - I go out hourly and shake my trees to see if I can get them to the traps

9:03 am

so sad they ARE such a fabiola color

9:03 am

eeuuuu - but then they would fall on you!!!

9:04 am

whew, got the mi6 - 3 to go

9:04 am

kewl As - just saw your profile

9:04 am

lex - great day yesterday!!

9:05 am

what's the ey anyone?

9:05 am

kje - they Fly

9:05 am

(Serves me right for not keeping up. I was wondering whether you were putting out special traps for trolls.)

9:05 am

omg, phone

9:05 am

And when the trolls start to fly we're really in trouble.

9:05 am

OUr little visitor has gone, by the way.

9:06 am

I blame FM.

9:06 am

ey = haz the last letter and the first letter of the alpha in it

9:06 am

But I was enjoying him/her :(

9:06 am

*sigh* very disapointing

9:06 am

asgreen...come back!!!

9:06 am

We were both unique!

9:06 am

ok, I'm back - sorry!!!!!!!!!

9:06 am

yeah - second troll in my career

9:07 am

No staying power, these young ''uns.

9:07 am

2 of my three are a pair - are you down to one kje?

9:07 am

Second? Pah! I have seen the hordes!! I miss our Aussie kinder-mates. Wonder when they will be back again.

9:07 am

get it ey??

9:07 am

Wash out your mouth, Uniquity! The really bad invasion put years on me.

9:07 am

i have one ready to enter asgreen - watcha need?

9:07 am

Bah that was nothing, in the days of the troll wars it was a hard and bloody time... *eyes glaze over and distant look hovers*

9:07 am

you are too good to me kje! I'd have raced to the finish!! :)

9:07 am

Yes, in the days of the troll wars, we had to have 24 hour watches.

9:08 am

still struggling with the ey, personally...

9:08 am

Many was the noble Bbbler felled by the cruel trollish hordes...

9:08 am

Ah, but your beauty shines through nonetheless...btw, who decided to put candy in plastic anyway? Can't open it!!

9:08 am

tell us a story FM -

9:08 am

We had to have changeover ceremonies -based on the Changing of the Guard, of course.

9:08 am

I was non-pro during several troll wars...I was lost in the battle for months!

9:08 am

ey + **ts are huge mice

9:08 am

ok, an6/7

9:08 am

Secret handshakes, stirring music, blood oaths. Those were the days.

9:08 am

Once the land was full of peaful and happy players with wit and beauty

9:09 am

brilliant, thanks

9:09 am

Not far from the truth...one could gain access to the inner sanctum by reference from another babbler.

9:09 am

Admittedly, some of us didn't like being full of peas all the time...

9:09 am

kls - ey + (first and last letters of the alphabet)

9:09 am

peaful? *peacful !

9:09 am

an + meditation chant + * am ready for fir*works!

9:09 am

That inner sanctum - revealed only to the deserving by the favourable.

9:10 am

sorry really bad clue - my brain went to exra

9:10 am

ezra

9:10 am

tell us more!!!

9:10 am

I agree, Vicuna. The peaful time was especially difficult for those with colourblindness.

9:10 am

ok, one to go! what's your last one? mine is a ra4, sure I'll find it!

9:10 am

and then the first of them came but they were shape shifters and dwelt amongst us for a while before the war started

9:10 am

They thought it was blood, you see.

9:10 am

mine is a pe 5

9:10 am

I think I know it

9:11 am

...And thus spake the Fmitch and the Hazel.

9:11 am

--- ready?

9:11 am

ready when you are green

9:11 am

Those shape shifters! They used every trick. Diets, liposuction, plastic surgery;.

9:11 am

let's go!

9:11 am

Many were the @'s and #'s that flew during those fierce battles.

9:11 am

Only the enlightened with the secret of Perspective could see through them.

9:11 am

fireworks!!!

9:11 am

--- fireworks!

9:11 am

Often, diction was abandoned altogether in favour of curses and cusses.

9:11 am

Slings and arrows of outrageous fortune were nothing to the troll wars.

9:12 am

Even to this day there are still some left within our group but they have forgotten a lot of their old ways and the trollishness sleeps for now.

9:12 am

Oh, pre-planned double fireworks! Way to go KJE, As!

9:12 am

WOOHOO for ASGREEN!!!

9:12 am

TWINS

9:12 am

ooooh the video is by you!!

9:12 am

Yay congrats kje and AsG

9:12 am

FM and Haz - you do this well together - you should be a bbalecast!

9:12 am

Don't be so sure, FM. I have noticed dodgy behaviours in our midst...:)

9:12 am

congrats, feels like ages away for me!

9:12 am

Who knows when the day will come that combined fireworks will waken the trollishness all over again and Troll Wars will begin again?

9:12 am

thanks asgreen - that was fun ; )

9:12 am

WTG KJE!!! THAT WAS FUN!

9:12 am

or maybe a babblecast!

9:13 am

Ah, see, the Unique Uniquity has been blessed with the Eye of Perspective. She sees the shape shifters for what they are!

9:13 am

OK - you you're allowed to chat now asgreen- LOL

9:13 am

kje - I'd probably curl up and die with mortification!

9:14 am

no haz - you guys play off each bit of story well - I'm mesmerized...

9:14 am

LOL and so it was they returned to the hunt for words not trolls and all was tranquil

9:14 am

...until in later times they delved too deep into the grid...

9:15 am

story time is over? waaaahhhhhhh

9:15 am

We share the same sense of the ridiculous, kje.

9:15 am

but more of that in the next telling eh Vi?

9:15 am

Oh, Vicuna. You're not going to have to tell the tale of THose Who Jumped In?

9:15 am

I think fireworks both scare and attract them

9:15 am

Jumpers? Sounds like babble suicide..

9:15 am

... and the prophecy was fulfilled: ont he day that ye shall find a 14 letter word, the trolls shall wake again!

9:15 am

kinda like a bad traffic accident

yada is a word....Seinfeld says it...<sigh>

9:16 am

oooh, guess what?

9:16 am

have we ever had a 14 letter word?

9:16 am

whoa!

9:16 am

No! No! No! NOT the 14 letter word, how DARE you even mention it

9:16 am

what?

9:16 am

I just zoomed thru tivo of survivor and saw myself at 42 mins in!!

9:16 am

Yes. The Legend of the Fourteen Letter predicts the awakening of all that is Trollish. Only the Zap of the Zapper will suffice to kill them.

9:16 am

yada yada yada

9:17 am

There is only room enough for 13 letter words!

9:17 am

I think it has to be in at least a 3 word combo like kje

9:17 am

yea asgreen - a superstar

9:17 am

is she HerMoDe???

9:17 am

OK - should get some work done! thanks for the fairy tale : )

9:17 am

We could have a grid that spelled antidisestablishmentarian. We can't fit the final ism.

9:18 am

uni - LOL

9:18 am

ok, phone keeps ringing....I'm still in pjs.....laundry is ready to be switched AGAIN....I must run

9:18 am

yw kje see you next time, same channel :)

9:18 am

That particular political movement died out because people couldn't get the slogan onto the t-shirt.

9:18 am

And it was a desperate problem trying to paint banners.

9:19 am

LOL haz - stop it! I MUST go!

9:19 am

have a great day everyone - kje, that was lots of fun - you are a pal for waiting (don't think I would have thought to be so nice!!)...:)

9:19 am

The dyslexics were NOT a fan of antidisestablishmentarianism.

9:19 am

They'd start off with big letters ANTI and they'd realise that there wasn't enough room. disestab etc just ran off the sheet.

9:19 am

HAGD asgreen - I'll poof with you too - too much stuff to do!

9:20 am

Particularly tall men would paint the word vertically down themselves.

9:20 am

ok, ready? *poof!

9:20 am

The dyslexics thought they were PROBABLY against antidisestablishmentarianism but they always ran out of interest before they had finished reading the pamphlets.

9:20 am

okay let's go for supercalifragilisticexpialidocious

9:20 am

even though the sound of it is something quite atrocious

9:20 am

Oh, Uniquity. I hadn't thought of that one. Men on stilts would have beeen popular as well.

9:21 am

if you say it LOUD enough you'll always sound pecosous

9:21 am

Lori taught me that word at 8 or so...always been my pride and joy. Been in many a debate over whether it's meaning follows all the negatives in the word.

9:21 am

pecousious

9:21 am

pecosious

9:21 am

It's a great word.

9:22 am

precocious?

9:22 am

precocious? Is that what you are going for?

9:22 am

precocious? precious? preschooled?

9:22 am

Precognitive.

9:22 am

prehistoric? Predetermined? preshrunk?

9:22 am

Premeditated, permanent, presidential.

9:23 am

Oh precocious - supercalifragilisticexpialidosios

9:23 am

preformed predilation to pragmatism?

9:23 am

Uniquity's out of the game. When did permananent begin with pre?

9:23 am

Prestige!

9:23 am

umdiddlediddlediddle undiddle i

9:24 am

Aww, I was trying to change the game :(

9:24 am

preeminent

9:24 am

Just checking that Vicuna's not joining in the song.

9:24 am

Okay, so we go per? Persuaded!

9:24 am

predestination

9:24 am

reordination

9:24 am

preordination

9:24 am

I feel so very much like another babbler right now...

9:24 am

preditor

9:25 am

out of body experience uni???

9:25 am

perusal of permitted precursors of permutations

9:25 am

I'm sure there's therapy to be had.

9:25 am

any clue for the of5?

9:25 am

Oh can we play 20 question Uni and guess

9:26 am

We'll club together for treatment.

9:26 am

of5 - a plural for of4

9:26 am

pl of the 4 Ouwa

9:26 am

I think that would be unkind, FM. :D

9:26 am

Or maybe we'll just use a club AS treatment

9:26 am

thanks fitch

9:26 am

Never let it be said that we are unkind.

9:27 am

I just expected yo uto stick your tongue out at me not be all grown up and sensible !

9:27 am

We are most kind. Most of the time. Oh, well then. If my attempts at maturity will result in discomfort, I am more than willing to throw an airplane or two.. *picks nose*

9:27 am

Uniquity is clearly being influenced by my guiding had towards being sane and sensible.

9:28 am

of5=rhymes with the simpson who's glove did not fit

9:28 am

Guiding hand, that should be. And what did we say about manners?

9:28 am

and plural

9:29 am

I still say he got a hand transplant.

9:29 am

Manners should be maintained at all times.

9:29 am

Sorry. *behaves*

9:29 am

fireworks!!

9:29 am

Way to go Pinkie!!

9:29 am

Haz - THAT is funny

9:29 am

Congratulations pink!

9:29 am

Congrats pink!! Right thats it, Im diving back in.

9:30 am

Stand well back!

9:30 am

Phone

9:30 am

floccinaucinihilipilification.

9:30 am

*Cowers behind chaning room door, lest I be splashed

9:31 am

Sounds like Asthma meds, Vic.

9:31 am

vic is your keyboard acting up or did a llama like animal walk on it

9:31 am

Excellent Vi

9:32 am

I better keep my head down - I'm getting no where and this is a DOABLE grid

9:32 am

have a lovely day everyone!!

9:32 am

i'm only at 36

9:32 am

Just one of my favorite long words. From the conversation of, like, half an hour ago, which I am only just now joining in.

9:32 am

I've been trying to pronounce it since you posted it. Failing miserably.

9:33 am

It was one of the words I remember a team using in a quiz some years ago on TV.

9:33 am

did you understand the llama like animal ref??

9:33 am

Flocky Knocky Ni He Pilla Fication

9:33 am

you get TV in the UK????

9:33 am

"flocksy-nawsy-nee-hill-apilla-ficati on

9:33 am

jk

9:33 am

You mean because I'm a vicuna?

9:33 am

Only if you're a member of the royal family.

9:34 am

Well those are different interpretations of the same word...

9:34 am

One has a televisual set or two

9:34 am

YEAH - just wanted to show that I knew what that is

9:34 am

I think Vicuna's has more of the Italian about it.

9:35 am

hey brit's fire yet?

9:35 am

The televisual set occasionally offers a feast of televisual experience.

9:35 am

But often it's rubbish.

9:35 am

okay no more fight picking....

9:35 am

It means...the act or habit of estimating or describing something as worthless, or making something, according to google definitions. Nice!

9:35 am

did ya'll like Across the Universe?

9:35 am

Excellent, lexleeanne, excellent. You're ahead of many a babbler there.

9:36 am

The televisual experience of Fawlty Towers with Bernard Cribbins as the Hotel inspector who wasn't is a favourite.

9:36 am

*pushes lex gently back into the grid*

9:36 am

Fawlty Towers!

9:36 am

how about his words - stultifyingly monolithic

9:36 am

As in, Haz's floccinaucinihilipilification of my singing always makes me sad. =(

9:36 am

Fawlty Towers! Que?

9:36 am

Que?

9:36 am

okay I am going -

9:37 am

Yo quiero Taco Bell?

9:37 am

It's for your own good, Vicuna. I'm the Simon Cowell of the Chat Log.

9:37 am

What!

9:37 am

Watt?

9:37 am

He invented the steam engine

9:38 am

I thought he was the one who dodged the apple?

9:38 am

Or was that Newton. Or William Tell?

9:38 am

No that was Fig Newtons

9:38 am

I had a newt once.

9:38 am

I had a new t-shirt once

9:39 am

Hahahahahah

9:39 am

Well, actually it was my roommate's newt.

9:39 am

They tried to have new t-shirts with 'down with disestablishmentarianism' but they were too dear. Too much ink.

9:40 am

tee hee!

9:40 am

Did you like sharing your room with a newt. Or even sharing your room-mate with a newt?

9:40 am

My favorite t-shirt was "Reunite Gondwanaland."

9:41 am

We were all very fond of the newt. All excpet the fish int he tank. They picked on it so dreadfully that it eventually hurled itself out of the tank in desperation and crawled away through the rawther dusty floor on a vain quest for peace.

9:41 am

*except

9:41 am

Flip those n's were a battle. Vi said a wooorrrrd!

9:42 am

And did it achieve world peace?

9:42 am

but how sad for the newt, no wonder it had a drink problem

9:42 am

I said a slew of them. Were any of them in the grid?

9:42 am

No, I suppose not. A newt can have only so much effect when bushes are about.

9:42 am

yes the f word.

9:42 am

No, poor thing. We found it dragging itself on its elbows like a man in the desert, gasping "Water! water!"

9:43 am

Well, at least it wasn't looking for alcohol.

9:43 am

Oh, me and those 4-letter F-words. I've got to watch my language.

9:43 am

No-one could accuse it of being as drunk as a newt.

9:43 am

wow you learn a new thing every day I didn't know newts had elbows *grin*

9:43 am

Fireworks

9:44 am

Was that a likely accusation, Haz? I never heard that one.

9:44 am

I wonder if newts can dislocate their elbows like John Terry.

9:44 am

Congratulations FMitch!

9:44 am

Aw, FM beat me. I am stuck on a stupid f4. Way to go!

9:44 am

Of course, I don't drink, so I suppose I'm not so up on those idioms.

9:44 am

Yay for FM!!!

9:45 am

Am I getting my drinking metaphors mixed up? I always thought newts were renowned for their inebriation.

9:45 am

Haz is being polite but we have a phrase Pi**ed as a Newt

9:45 am

I don't have that phrase, you understand. Others may.

9:45 am

Uni do you know which one you need?

9:45 am

It would explain why the roommate liked the idea of a newt, though.

9:46 am

But it's heartening to know that that newt was sober, though mistreated.

9:46 am

She would have had much in common with it.

9:46 am

And firewords. Yeah, that was DEF a f4!

9:46 am

Yay for Uni!

9:46 am

Well done Uniquity!

9:46 am

Weeeee! Congrats Uni!

9:46 am

And do you know how many words my beloved children have sufferred me to find in this entire time? Stinking 11!

9:46 am

Such a pity she couldn't have followed the example of the teetotal newt. They might have had happier lives.

9:47 am

Have you ever considered trading your children in?

9:47 am

LOL Vi

9:47 am

A newt or two might be less trouble.

9:48 am

Have I ever considered it? Have I ever considered it? Haz, I dream of it on a daily basis!

9:48 am

Not two newts Josephine

9:48 am

Wow....way too far into this video/song before I realized they are all palindromes. LOVE Weird Al!

9:48 am

I take it the glow of MOther's Day has faded?

9:48 am

"Don't nobody bring me no bad newts!"

9:49 am

By the way - how can somebody with a name like Newt Gingrich be elected into political office?

9:49 am

Same reason as Lembic Opic I guess

9:49 am

Five year olds, shouldn't they be in primary or something (American equivalent)? Or are you home-schooling?

9:49 am

lol. My children are perfect. I, however, am not. Therefore, I weary of them on occasion.

9:50 am

Oh ,we all weary of our children, it's perfectly normal. They'll get better, then worse, then better again.

9:50 am

They are in kindergarten, yes. But in our town it's half day, and they are in the afternoon class. We can pay extra for the other half day, so I have them in that on 3 of the 5 days. But not Monday.

9:51 am

They're actually a lot of fun now. I did not much enjoy the first several years of motherhood, though. Turns out I don't really like babies 24 hours a day!

9:52 am

Sounds a lot more complicated than it was for me...Turned five, went to primary (full day, grade before Grade one). Started school as real school. I survived! I have cousin in Toronto on her second year of "half days". IMO, not a good way to teach kids about long school days.

9:52 am

Yes, but bear in mind that you had twins - quite different to having one baby at a time.

9:52 am

Don't you love how I get a real grasp of the blooming obvious?

9:53 am

Yup. One baby would be a piece of cake! lol

9:53 am

Actually, developmentally speaking, full day primary is not for the benefit of the children. It's for the benefit of working parents.

9:54 am

But the only reason our town does not do full day is budget. Which si lame, since it's a perfectly wealthy town on the whole.

9:54 am

My two went to playgroup in the mornings when they were 4 then progressed to primary school when they were five. 9 - 12.30 initially and then 9 - 2. They were always tired by the end.

9:54 am

I loved it. Nothing I wanted more in the world than to do school. I was reading long before I went, so I got to read to the class. Total teachers pet.

9:54 am

Let's all boooooo at Uniquity.

9:55 am

(I was a bit the same - used to get trotted round other classes to read to them)

9:55 am

However, my sewing was held up for all to pity and despise.

9:56 am

hello Babble Family... I am mobile babbling....

9:56 am

(It wasn't really, but it makes for a good story)

9:56 am

hi everyone. belated happy mother's day

9:56 am

I was always at school 6 hours or more, plus buses. Got used to it way early.

9:56 am

lol Haz. Of the two I think you picked wisely.

9:56 am

Aussie, is that a show in your icon??

9:56 am

Hi Aussie and Orange

9:56 am

Don't alk to me about picking. Always the last to be selected for any sort of game.

9:56 am

Lori was obviously eager to be rid of you, Uni! lol

9:57 am

its a shoe Uniq !

9:57 am

I meant shoe. :(

9:57 am

:0) I knew what you meant Uniq !

9:57 am

Actually, my dad had me for grade primary, Vic. Well, he was working, so I was at my Nannie's before and after. Maybe I should be concerned...

9:58 am

Hello Aussie and Orange. That shoe reminds me of the 70's.

9:58 am

And now, having found all of 12 words (and the last few minuets wasted cannot even be fairly blamed on the children - I'll blame FM, instead) I have to get to work again. Blllgh =P

9:58 am

A minuet is never wasted. Ask Mozart.

9:59 am

Haz, it was 70's Fashion on saturday or sunday..... so there it is,

9:59 am

Hello, Aussie and Orange, and goodbye, all...

9:59 am

Responsibility is over-rated, Vic. Keep wasting time!

9:59 am

*blows raspberry at disappearing figure of Vi*

9:59 am

Bye Vicuna!

9:59 am

lol, Haz!

9:59 am

bye Vi !

9:59 am

i'm not liking this grid so far

9:59 am

9:59 am

FMitch - what did we say about manners?

10:00 am

It is a little toughie Orange. Oh yes, so sorry Haz.

10:00 am

Orange - I loathed it. You can too! :)

10:00 am

10:00 am

10:00 am

10:01 am

Monday is a proper noun.

10:01 am

Oh DOH !! now fi4 me !!

10:01 am

Is a cr8/75 a carniverous crustacean?

10:02 am

sneaky little lobsters aint they ?

10:02 am

Yes. If you thought newts were bad, wait till you see what cr8 can get up to.

10:03 am

10:03 am

10:03 am

10:05 am

very cool - you are SO now!

10:05 am

you missed FM's and Haz's story time aussie - it was funny

10:05 am

Are you in a car?

10:05 am

I know.... My Babble Family get me through some tough times, so here I am, on the way to Cornwall for Hubbys Uncles funeral tomorrow, and I am Babbling away like mad !!

10:06 am

I am in a car Haz !

10:06 am

would you, could you in a car? would you, could you in a tree?

10:06 am

You're fortunate to be able to read while moving. I'd be sick!

10:06 am

I love green eggs and ham!

10:06 am

I could, I would, In a Car and I could and would in a tree too, !!

10:07 am

would you, could you in a house?...would you, could you with a mouse?

10:07 am

I read so I dont have to look out of the window, or I would be sick !

10:07 am

I do not like green eggs and Ham, I do not like them Sam-I-Am !!

10:07 am

sorry about the funeral gig aussie - tough day!

10:07 am

I could eat them anywhere Sam I Am

10:07 am

Oh, that's funny! I've even found now that I can't sit in the back seat with any degree of comfort.

10:08 am

my stomach is a rock - no motion sickness...no traveler's diarrhea... can eat or do anything

10:08 am

Ack, what can I do ?? We were going to go visit him when we went down at the beginning of June, but, too late now....

10:09 am

that is sad aussie...

10:09 am

Not evening morning sickness? I could dislike people like you, kje.

10:09 am

I HATED Morning sickness, it should have been re-named All-Day sickness for me !!

10:09 am

Motion sickness manufacturers would do well not to include you in trials of new remedies!

10:09 am

what's the fi 6? and if its the plural of the fi 5 before it, I don't have that either

10:10 am

fi5 -fi plus Spanish 'what?' then plural for fi6

10:10 am

I hear you, Aussie.

10:10 am

thanks for that word Haz !

10:11 am

**oops, those words even**

10:11 am

You're welcome.

10:11 am

never been pregnant haz...

10:11 am

thanks!

10:11 am

Its no picnic kje !! I tell ya !!

10:12 am

Okay, but by the sound of things you'd not suffer, kje.

10:12 am

I used to think that morning sickness was an old wives tale put about to get sympathy for pregnant women.

10:12 am

my mom said she never really got morning sickness - and we tend to be like them - so probably would have done OK

10:13 am

ooo - harsh haz!

10:13 am

how come you never had babies kje ?? **hoping not a medical reason, just choice**

10:13 am

will never be preggers now - too old : )

10:13 am

But then I had all day sickness myself and I learned my lesson.

10:14 am

not married yet aussie - and prefer the "proper" order for that one... not into raising kids alone - that would be hard!

10:14 am

me too Haz.... no more smurfs for me !!

10:14 am

the only myth about morning sickness is that it's restricted to morning

10:14 am

yes OC !!!!! I agree utterly and tutterly !!

10:14 am

I think it was all in your heads!!! LOL

10:14 am

Ah, I see !!!!!

10:14 am

all i can say is thank goodness for vanilla ice cream. i ate a truck load

10:15 am

The nearest I ever came to hitting my dear husband was when I staggered downstairs after yet another session of sickness and he announced 'Goodness, I'm getting fed up with this'

10:15 am

All I fancied was grapes, and then I was told I couldnt have them, as I was diabetic !! That sucked BIG TIME !!

10:15 am

lots of nieces and nephews though aussie - it is OK - that is just the way it worked out for me : )

10:15 am

Noooooo, Oh I bet he was popular Haz!

10:15 am

{{{{{kje}}}}}

10:16 am

Haz!!! LOL

10:16 am

My reply was polite but heartfelt. 'YOU'RE tired of it??'

10:16 am

my husband looked at me and said 'according to the books you should be all finished by now' I gave him the stink eye for that

10:16 am

It worked the same for me kje, after Nicholas died, no babies for me...... then I went on holiday to Cornwall in 2005 **september**, and May 2006, Georgia Grace came along !!

10:17 am

wow - that WAS restrained haz

10:17 am

I couldn't summon up enough energy to do much more!

10:17 am

2 weeks today my smurf is 2 !!

10:17 am

she is a cutie, aussie!

10:17 am

He's a pet really. He gets frustrated if I'm not well because he thinks he has to get me better.

10:17 am

fankoomuch kje !

10:18 am

I think a bout of cook-induced food poisoning was in order haz...

10:18 am

awww Haz, thats sweet of him...

10:18 am

OK, that was sweet - he's off the hook : )

10:18 am

No, it was just the way it came out. He was sympathetic really, just frustrated on my behalf. Animals don't have morning sickness....

10:19 am

**ok, dives back in to grid for a bit**

10:19 am

He also commented on how badly women were walking after they gave birth. All stooped over as if in pain....

10:19 am

how about some clues for these mo's?

10:19 am

how about some clues for these mo

10:19 am

ouch

10:20 am

I was probably less polite about that one!

10:20 am

mo 7 - google wild bergamot - it is the latin name of that plant

10:20 am

mo 5/12 - misspelled currency?

10:21 am

mo 5/16 - to walk along slowly and aimlessly

10:21 am

mo 5/14 - mo + ***ia comaneci

10:22 am

(gymnast)

10:22 am

Morning, one and all!

10:25 am

10:26 am

Thank goodness today's puzzle is small.

10:26 am

Bye Haz Thanks for the laughs

10:26 am

bye haz - thanks for the troll story

10:26 am

bye Haz !! xx

10:27 am

Oh, troll ??

10:27 am

Bye - it was fun!

10:27 am

troll legends, aussie - about the troll days of yore before i was a bbabler - troll wars and secrets!

10:28 am

Ah, I see kje.... we have had some doozies

10:28 am

**going back into chog to see stories !**

10:29 am

had no idea about the Great Troll War - which I believe were aussie trolls, BTW

10:30 am

Oh no our tales tell of battles and alliances long before those times

10:30 am

I thought someone mentioned they were australian trolls...no?

10:31 am

not you or Haz - but someone else I believe

10:31 am

I mentioned the Aussie group. They are notable in my history, but pale in comparison to what FM and Haz may have seen...

10:31 am

Oh I must have been busy creating at that time

10:31 am

Creating?!?!?! FM! We told only the truth!

10:32 am

hey all.....hows everyone doin'?

1:52 pm

hi all...

1:53 pm

proper noun conx

Oh heck, I gotta change Icon.

hey, peeps

1:53 pm

hiya red- off again today?

1:53 pm

hi tyger

1:54 pm

yeah, kje, but I was pleased with my monkeys to have found it... :)

hey, kje. is today's video of a Dylan song? (not that familiar with his music, except for just a few songs)

1:54 pm

: )

1:55 pm

it is a song made up of all palindromes.... don't think anyone "gets" it - but thought it would be appropriate for a wordy group : )

1:55 pm

and WOOHOO for Tyger!!! BTW

conx - the actual mo7 is a term for a class of herb

thx, kje

1:56 pm

it is actually weird al yankovic singing

1:56 pm

oh is THAT what it is! thnaks tyger

1:56 pm

conx - google wild bergamot

yes, I noticed that (the palindromes), but it sure sounds like Dylan. now you tell me, that sounds more like Weird Al's choice in music :D

yw, conx

1:57 pm

like what they put in the earl grey tea!

icon check...

1:57 pm

yes!

1:58 pm

will refresh red

1:58 pm

yum :)

OTOH, the signboards offer a tremendous clue ;) - also more Weird Al's style. but the harmonica sounds as though it was intended to deceive

kje, its the same old theme.

nice horsies, turtle

1:59 pm

yes, I agree it sounds like Bob Dylan - and clearly meant to deceive since he starts with a card that says "BOB"

1:59 pm

...and we're back to the horse theme - LOL

you gotta refresh too! :D :D

TY Tyger...I am pretty sure thats Slim W. and Carthage in the background.

2:00 pm

fireworks, and thnaks for the vid, kje

2:00 pm

the pe 5/20 is SO SILLY!!

2:00 pm

2:02 pm

I'm going to be around even less, I expect

2:03 pm

I agree, kje -- wilder than wild!

2:03 pm

why tyger?

2:03 pm

why, tyger?

2:03 pm

jilli - have you seen the vet yet/

I got sooooo frustrated over the 332 grid last week that it made me realize I've been too focused on Babbling to the exclusion of other things I should do :(

2:04 pm

kje, the appointment is for 4 pm and I'm already a basket case, trying not to think about it

2:04 pm

oh tyger - a wake up call huh? bummer!

I spent more than 6 hours on it, and wasn't able to finish it in time

2:04 pm

will someone go with you jilli?

yup, I think that's what it's called :P :)

2:04 pm

no, kje

what's going on, jilli? your kitty in bad shape?

2:04 pm

well tyger - just skip the big'uns - but don't ;eave us altogether

2:05 pm

anyone have a clue for the mo7?

2:05 pm

I'm sorry jilli - be careful and don't drive if you're too upset!

oh, kje, I won't leave entirely. I just won't try to do the grid every day.

2:05 pm

yes, tyger-- think of us at 4 pm PT

2:05 pm

mo 7 - google wild bergamot - latin name

will send up a little prayer for you jilli. any hope?

2:06 pm

2:14 pm

pab - 1142

2:15 pm

I'm not lurking...I JUST signed in...just got chog to load and see my name (I'm honored, BTW)

2:15 pm

thanks kje

2:15 pm

LOL dan

2:16 pm

lunch dan?

2:17 pm

nah, I'm ignoring some training videos right now, and no couriers nearby

2:18 pm

denial, then - LOL

2:19 pm

is there only on s5 word

2:20 pm

yes pab

2:20 pm

thanks kje

2:21 pm

actually, it's yearly training on legal issues for security. I have taught this class, but still have to take it every year. I just play the video in the background since there is no way to skip it, and then take the test at the end...

This grid is giving meproblems....

2:22 pm

red - it does have some weird ones...but most are monkeyable (new word)

2:23 pm

fi4/8 is my best word so far...and I needed one!

2:23 pm

so teach us something new dan - what is the big issue in courier legal issues these days : )

2:24 pm

throwing hamachi... (my lunch)

2:24 pm

that's the best part...it's not courier security, it's security guard issues. The big one (according to the video) is "detaining" people, which guards are not allow to do.

2:24 pm

missing a f5, have fa5/18 x 2 and fo5/18, what f5/18 am I missing please

2:25 pm

OK - so no detaining... good to know the next time I'm running from a security guard : )

2:26 pm

3 fa 5/18s....

2:26 pm

thanks kje

2:26 pm

a GOOD security guard wouldn't be chasing you, since they have no power off the property

2:27 pm

the front of your head one... the humor one... and will look up th other

2:27 pm

ah - it is a unit of electrical capacitance - got that - LOL

2:27 pm

can they detain me ON the property?

2:28 pm

thanks kje, that was it, fireworks

2:28 pm

WOOHOO for Pab!!!

Yay Pabtrek!!!! I on the other hand have 54 left....

The break for the gym may have sapped my brain...

2:28 pm

go red go

2:29 pm

nowto finish off my brain at sudoku

2:31 pm

sorry kje, i was taking the section test...a security guard can not detain anyone, ever! They can arrest you, but they can not hold you without arresting you (detain). Guards do not have the protection that police officers have. Our job is to observe, report, and prevent.

the really good ones are experts at prevention... worked with some great ones at a variety of hospitals...

2:33 pm

OK... so if he is really cute and I WANT him to catch me ; ) I must remember to not leave the property and to get myself arrested - LOL

kje!!!! just slip him your number....

2:35 pm

yes, red - have used them in the hospital as well - prefer the ones who know how to de-escalate the situation... occasionally get the ones who just make things worse

2:35 pm

the key to prevention is to be visible...I've seen guards spend the entire shift in the security office, while everything not nailed down is stolen from the property, and other guards wwho patrol a pile of sand so much it turns to rock!

lots of places now having an actualpolice force though...

2:36 pm

i always teach the guard to treat anyone he comes in contact with the way he would want to be treated...it makes everyone so much easier to deal with

2:36 pm

at hospitals red?

2:36 pm

courier here...BRB

yes....we had the Duke PD,not security guards, at Duke...

The same in a few other teaching hospitals I worked at. They carry guns etc...and are actual Police officers....

2:37 pm

could someone get me started on the O's?

2:38 pm

yes, I know universities can have PDs...so academic hospitals will, I guess. But hadn't thought of normal hospitals having a PD - don't like the idea of them having guns around some of those patients though

2:38 pm

oa 6 - clumsy one + adjective ending

2:39 pm

of 4 - o + f** dunaway

2:39 pm

and plural

I think kje they are trained to not let the persons of interest get to the guns. We've had a few shoot outs, so I prefer the guards to be armed at least somewhat equally to the thugs.

hey guys i'm back from picking up groceries and in shock from the bill!!

2:41 pm

thanks

2:41 pm

in B-more - they had metal detectors at the doors, so despite the huge drug and gang influence, never had a shoot out.... and would prefer never to get to that point

But i'm really a non violent person. Hi Lindrick!!!!

2:41 pm

2:46 pm

2:46 pm

and also used a lot of delivery!

2:47 pm

tykje

one of the large pots i am making is veggie soup, then i freeze it in individual portions (usually to take to work for lunch)

2:47 pm

yw

i did alot of Subway when my hand was broken.

won't have much money for delivery kje, not working for 8 weeks i will be poor ):

2:47 pm

so healthy lindy... but at least you have time to plan. Mine was unexpected so I took what I could get : )

2:48 pm

poor Lindy : )

2:48 pm

could you drive red?

nice you didn't have to worry about it for long, but useful for me to be able to plan

2:49 pm

not driving sucks!!!!

I have a standard so it was hard, and apparently against the law, but...I did drive a little.

2:49 pm

LOL red - yes, would think the law would frown on that

2:49 pm

ty kje

i have a standard too so no driving for at least 3 weeks ):

but I can be chauffered!! LOL

I remember being so excited to be able to use a can opener again...

2:50 pm

sorry lindy - I couldn't drive for almost 3 months.... and went crazy!!!

LOL red!!

I would have been insane kje...

woooo that would send me crazy, how come so very long kje?

2:50 pm

it is funny, isn't it, red, what little pleasures get us going... I remember being ecstatic that I could sit in a hot bath again!

It was a difficult injury for me especially because they wouldnt let me run or swim...I gotreally depressed, and out of shape...

2:51 pm

broke my right ankle in 3 places, Lindy - to OR - and no weight bearing for 10 weeks

i will just be glad when i feel well again and not so tired!!

2:51 pm

when i had a broken elbow, i was cooking at 1:00 a.m. ans actually went door to door until i saw a light on and asked a neighbor to open a can for me!

2:51 pm

have been crutches free now about a month - woohoo!

2:52 pm

LOL harp - that is funny and sad at the same time

harp! I so totally understand that....

ysy forcrutches free...

the only thing i have ever broken is my nose twice!! but at least i straightened it back out the second time!!

2:52 pm

the start of a friendship, actually!

2:53 pm

cool harp - same here though - you meet a lot of people when you have to rely on others to help you - very humbling

Lindrick,I've broken more bones than I can count.

oh wow kje so it was pretty recent then?

2:53 pm

Lindy! how did you break your nose?

2:53 pm

went to OR January 1

2:54 pm

hi, all. kje...I just put a link for all of my current favorite organizing/couponing/personal finance websites and blogs on my profile :)

first time i was hit by a diving block at the school swimming pool (they had to drain the pool after!!) and the second time running down the street (tipsy!!) and i fell over sprained my wrist and so it didn't save me and i landed on my nose

2:54 pm

just flew and was happy to realize my hardware doesn't set the security xray off - woohoo!!!

sounds as if the repair was done well...

2:55 pm

OH lIndy!!! ouch

Lindy....carefullll/

2:55 pm

thank you angel - I am trying (feeling guilty)

2:55 pm

fi 5/22 please

cos of the shock i felt no pain the second time!! LOL

2:56 pm

red - Parkland is one of the top 2 places in US for trauma surgery training - so had some great surgeons

but as a kid i always wanted to have a pot, but they don't put them on noses!!! LOL

2:56 pm

no reason to feel guilty, kje. the link is actually multiple links rolled into a linkbunch link. you can open each separately or all together.

2:56 pm

have a pot?

2:56 pm

a cast, you mean?

Apot?

yes kje!!

in england they are called pots!!

2:57 pm

can see lindy with a nose cast - ROFL

LOLOL might improve my looks!!

They really are not that funLindy, but if you come by I'll make you a splint now...

thanks red but i have grown up now, well almost!! LOL

2:58 pm

run lindy - don't let her cast you!!!

tyler hansbrough had a pretty snazzy noseguard,the UNC player who broke his shnozz...

I'm a good splinter....but I will admit,I dislike doing it...

I am incapacitated enough right now!! LOL

2:59 pm

not meant as a dis of your skills, red, meant she won't think they are fun once she has one

soooo itchy.

3:00 pm

hot and heavy to lug around, also. I've had my share of casts also.

i have knitting needles to scratch with!! LOL

3:00 pm

I didn't have to have a cast - post-op I had a removable boot - so could take a shower with a chair - that was so much better than the no wet cast thing!

I ate lunch at 2...and I am still hungry. :(

3:00 pm

never broke anything before this.... and never want to again!

LOL kje

hope you won't kje.

3:01 pm

I've never had a broken bone. Just a lot of surgery.

my hubby had bone graft on wrist years ago and we were doing out house up, every time we went back to the clinic he had worn out his cast!! every 2 weeks!! LOL

have never had surgery before! can only say that for anothe week and a half ):

3:02 pm

you'll do fine lindy! it isn't as bad as you think... all I remember is anesthesia saying "take a deep breath"

LOL kje

3:03 pm

...and then the very sweet male nurse in recoovery...

how long was your surgery kje?

3:03 pm

kje, did you mention you were planning to order that filing system I ordered?

3:03 pm

hello all -- are we swapping "war stories" about hospital visits?

3:03 pm

rofl kje

3:03 pm

not quite at the planning stage angel - contemplating...

I have that influence stid!!

hi btw stid, how ya doin?

3:03 pm

(((Stid)))...

3:04 pm

Stid, the Babble Stats Page is thriving.

3:04 pm

I am okay today lindy. gimpy, but otherwise doing great

3:04 pm

do you know the stages of change angel? pre-contemplative (you moved me out of that one)...contemplative...planning...and execution

LOL,kje, I will freely admit when they put the bigOxygen maks on me and I saw the anesthetist with a Huuuge syringe of Propofol, I burst into tears...it suddenly became too scary...I wantedto be the one with the syringe...

3:04 pm

so glad, angelsong! you do really nice things for us! {{{many hugs}}}

LOL what does gimpy mean????!!!

3:04 pm

fi 5/22 please

Stid!!!! you are beating me on Facebook.

3:05 pm

I'm getting my paid webhost next month, Stid. DreamHost is the one I've chosen..

3:05 pm

my surgery was just barely over an hour

mine will be 3.5 hours kje ):

3:05 pm

beating you with what, red? *trying to hide violent tendencies*

3:06 pm

that's ours, angelsong! :-D

3:06 pm

(if you tell them we told you about them we get some sort of bonus...)

3:06 pm

I'm far into execution, myself, kje...but until last summer I hadn't even considered precontemplation.

3:06 pm

it will be OK Lindy - you'll get a nice nurse...and a good anesthesiologist...and hospital food....oh, wait, scratch that last one...

3:06 pm

how has it been, Stid? are you happy with it?

I think we are playing Scramble...

3:06 pm

angel - you CAN'T consider precontemplation - it is impossible - LOL

LOL i don't mind hospital food kje, only know from having babies!!

3:07 pm

we like it angelsong, in many years was only down once and then for only a couple hours (someone had targeted them -- stupid hackers)

Lindrick,even with all my sobbing and silliness,things went fine, you will do well...

3:07 pm

I jumped from total ignorance into just doing, kje. I tend to do that.

I'm not really worried yet, as I said it is locked away in a secret compartment in my brain!! LOL

3:08 pm

well, people spend differing amounts of time in the different stages... seconds to, um years.... did I mention I'm reading a book on procrastination - LOL

I think it is more what I am having done and where rather than that I am having it done!!

3:09 pm

well, actually, I'm babbling and procrastinating reading the book...

LOL kje

3:09 pm

Lindy - what is it?

3:09 pm

the only thing I ever procrastinate about IS procrastination. I make my husband nuts.

3:10 pm

or too personal?

oh I am having a hysterectomy & corrective surgery, but it will be done internally!!!

I don't do personal, I am an open book!! LOL

3:11 pm

it will be fine Lindy!!! no worries

3:11 pm

*flipping through pages...* ooh Lindy! I didn't know that! *points to page 362*

can't wait to get rid really!!!

wanted one when i was 25 after I had my 3rd bably!!!

*baby!!

3:12 pm

yes, I remember now that you said you look pregnant - it will be a relief and all just a memory soon

3:12 pm

LOL them bablies is tough stuff, eh lindy?

yeah about 6 months now kje, my uterus is size of 28 week foetus!!

too much babbling stid!!!

3:13 pm

lindy - drop the useless O - LOL

3:13 pm

wow lindy... that is pretty big. I shall be happy for you to be comfortable again!

I'm english kje!! with an english teacher mother, therefore I can't!! LOL

oh me too stid!!

3:14 pm

Stid, my daughter is much better; she walks without a crutch now, and is in minimal discomfort. She had an ultrasound last week, and all is well with the fetus. she is having another boy. another ultrasound will be in two weeks, in more detail.

3:15 pm

good news angel!!!! (and notice how nicely she spells fetus!)

3:15 pm

oh good! so happy she is recovering well and that the baby seems healthy that will be three boys, though. If I were you, I'd put in my order for a girl soon...

but before i can go in to hospital, I have to make, veggie soup, mild chili, hot chili, mild curry, hot curry, spag bol and tacos to fill up my freezer and make my life easier after!!

LOL kje

3:15 pm

oh -- and lasagne too lindy... it freezes well.

3:16 pm

get busy lindy...

3:16 pm

she's having a tubal ligation after the delivery, and good for her, I think. She wanted a girl, but is meant to mother sons.

don't think i'll have any room stid, i already have enchilades in there

3:16 pm

oh well... good for her to make that decision. We did the same, but after just two. Made life a little more predictable (though as I learned with children you can't count on anything).

3:16 pm

maybe girl great grand babies someday angel : )

hope everyting goes well angel, you just get what you are given!! as long as he is healthy she will be happy i'm sure!!

3:17 pm

lindy, I could come and reheat the food for you... *hopeful helpful look*

LOL stid...

5:00 pm

it was the last two letters

neither would I mom, but I thought you might be a gardener!

5:01 pm

what does it sound like to you dc? I don't get any "rude" sense from it.....

5:02 pm

the ending rings a bell somewhere in my brain, though my specialty was medeviel spanish ,so who knows. :)

5:03 pm

i thihk the spanish word for sh*t is mierde

5:03 pm

9:20 pm

My Dog ate a half a roast I stupidly left on the counter once to REST... right ... it rested on the floor. .. he looked at me and said.. hey this is pretty good you want some?

9:20 pm

9:20 pm

I know lots of folks who do too, but not I...

LOL ruru

9:20 pm

9:20 pm

9:21 pm

lol ruru... she WANTS to go to India (hubby wants to visit his mother in Malaysia and sister in India before they die, and daughter wants desperately to come along)

9:21 pm

chocolate? Lucky if it lived!!

9:22 pm

golden retrievers

how many ruru?

9:22 pm

depends on the size of dog and quantity of chocolate. i was more worried about the caffeine from the espresso beans. lucky he didn't go into seizures.

9:22 pm

just two now

9:22 pm

my old black labrador X dalmatian has eaten chocolate so many times, it's a wonder he's lasted 12 years.

aawww

9:22 pm

9:23 pm

my other pup is a year-old great pyranees. teenager, or what!

9:24 pm

9:27 pm

I love the snorts it's cute!

9:27 pm

I am actually fond of Pugs and King Charles Cavalier Spaniels too

9:27 pm

my lab-dal runs and barks in his sleep

9:28 pm

KC spaniels are precious!

both my dal and my jack did/do that

9:28 pm

9:28 pm

Irun and bark in my sleep too..we must be related

my jack things he is a big dog though lady!!

9:28 pm

ooh then it's a tricky clue

9:28 pm

my dogs are both extremely strong. At only 5' I actually probably look silly walking them.

9:28 pm

LOL ruru

9:29 pm

11:06 pm

pug, I have a pal here who is a pugmama too and lives next door to a pug breeder

11:07 pm

dear dear all of you, i just looked and found that the reason it says i am 4 is that you have to put your birthday in and indeed the years given are from 1919 to 2003! so there is no way to put in 1918 for example.

11:07 pm

marilyn, didn't go to the map yet but when you said Hyde Park I had a good idea of where

11:07 pm

many puggy fans out there they are addictive little fat rolls!

So, Lind - I think I'll take that pic off FB now that you have seen it.

11:37 pm

11:38 pm

one of the problems with starting so late is that I ignore what's going on in the chat. So, I totally missed the mention of Jilli's fur-baby. When she gets back give her a big hug for me.

11:46 pm

LOL pug, the calm before the storm at the flip!!

11:47 pm

11:47 pm

It's because no one is asking for clues and it is crunch time...we don't know what to do! :)

11:47 pm

I'm just relaxing!!

11:48 pm

it's not enough time to be worth going to play something else while waiting...

11:49 pm
