I'm so tired, I watched ice-hockey the whole night.

1:29 am

Yes, Finlad won USA and made it to semi-finals!

1:30 am

nice :)

1:33 am

are you feeling better, sprite?

1:34 am

I slept well, it is a little cooler he4. Still very panicky about how we are going to handle it all, but on the whole a little bit better, yes thanks :) And how are you?

1:34 am

oh, i guess i don't know everything, i just knew you had flu.. sorry to hear..but glad you're doing better.

1:35 am

i'm surviving.

1:36 am

I have been ill for a couple of years now, ptss and burnout. Flu was ugly because I did not have enough energy to get over it, still don't, but it is slowly eroding away. But my hubby broke down on Mother's day. Burnout himself. It is a bit much at the mo.

1:36 am

ah, i see. :/ hope all is better soon.

1:36 am

surviving is very important. One step at a time, one breath at a time if need be. *hugs* to you. Am happy to see you in chat again :)

1:37 am

thanks, it is... it's just hard sometimes. it's more emotional for me lately, but i will see my therapist again soon. and *hugs* back to you. glad to see you as well.

1:39 am

when I look back on my therapy, the emotional flare-ups were hard to handle, but somehow seemed to signal important breakthroughs and progress. But that is looking back... when I am in the middle of the emotions, I couldn't care less, lol.

1:41 am

yeah.. hopefully i will make breakthroughs. i haven't been able to in all the time i've been dealing with this stuff.

1:41 am

i am trying to be optimistic though. i'm seeing someone new.

1:42 am

you will, for sure, Elsh. I felt the same for a long long ti4. No progress at all. But we don't realise what is happening under the surface. We do a lot of healing while it looks like nothing happens at all. Hey, sounds good :) Is he or she a sweetie?

1:43 am

oh, i meant that it's a new therapist.. :)

1:43 am

yeah, i think you're right about that.. some progress is made. i just want to learn some new things.

1:43 am

ahhhhh ok, LOL! That might be good too. And he or she better NOT be a sweetie, but a professional caring one.

1:44 am

haha, yeah XD i'm married lol

1:45 am

happily married? Is the other half supportive to you?

1:45 am

Yes. :) We have our issues, but I am happy to be with him.

1:46 am

Will be married 5 yrs in November.

1:46 am

lovely! A marriage without issues is dead, I think. My love and I have a wonderful marriage, but not without issues either. It is a living thing, a relation, and it needs feeding, pruning, space and air and love and attention to prosper and grow.

1:47 am

Yep.

1:47 am

I'm glad you've got a good one too. :)

1:47 am

so am I :D One of the blessings I count every day.

1:48 am

:D

1:49 am

we will be married 12 years in September. Jeezzz ti4 flies!~

1:50 am

Sure does! I met mine online 10 years ago. Does not feel like that long!

1:50 am

hi sprite and elsh

1:50 am

hi jasmine!

1:50 am

Hi jasmine!

1:51 am

we met at work, 14 years back.

1:51 am

i met my husband when i was 12 y.o.

1:51 am

Nice :)

1:51 am

Wow!

1:51 am

but i din't marry him til i was 23

1:51 am

wow, that is young, jasmine!

1:52 am

I got married at 23 as well.

1:52 am

we've been married 18 years in sept. and ti** really does fly! and not without issues

1:52 am

23 here

1:53 am

wow, seems to be the marrying age!

1:53 am

in a way, resolving the issues makes the marriage stronger, I think. We married when I was 29.

1:53 am

hi ruru

1:53 am

hi ruru

1:53 am

married at 31 married 23 years hi sprite

1:53 am

hi ruru

1:53 am

HI nb I elsh

1:54 am

could i get the o 7?

1:54 am

yeah, i hope we will resolve ours...but I am determined to make it work no matter what. that's what marriage is about really.

1:55 am

not from me, I have only one 7 and it is a T.

1:55 am

stuck here at 12. painful going now ;-)

1:55 am

on 7 -- occurring just once

1:55 am

good for you elsh. so many peopl e don't bother or dont know how

1:56 am

as long as you both approach it that way, Elsh, yes! We promised eachother that divorce would be the very very last resort... that we would try everything else first. Like therapy. We did, and we are still growing closer and closer through the years.

1:56 am

hi BabbleRabble, good to see you.

1:56 am

thanks bab

1:57 am

and thanks, didn't know that was 1 word.

1:57 am

Yeah, I think that's how we feel...we just have to get to the point where we get therapy together. We haven't done that.

hi all!!

1:58 am

48 words found and have to go. Bye!

1:58 am

Hello, Dee

1:58 am

how about to6/21?

1:58 am

I don't know how to fix our issues, jasmine...but I am determined to...I think I get that from my own parents (who imo are a really bad match so hopefully i'm not in the same situation!)

1:58 am

we did and found out that it was all about communicating. It is shocking how often we think the other knows what we want, while we haven't communicated it explicitly. And how often we are wrong.

hey Babble

1:58 am

Yeah.

1:58 am

bye ajv!

1:59 am

Hi Dee

1:59 am

to 6 -- add one who seems a nuisance: ****sis

hi elsh

1:59 am

hello dee

howdy jas

2:00 am

hi dee

2:01 am

interesting word. thanks again

2:01 am

hiccup ti4

2:01 am

what is really scary is confirming a thought only to find out even an agreement is not coincidental

2:01 am

I need the last te 6/18 and haven't been able to monkey it yet

2:01 am

I need the last te 6/18 and haven't been able to monkey it yet

hugs sprite

2:02 am

*hugs Dee right back*

2:02 am

now, a pesky te 6/18! i need it too ruru

2:02 am

BabbleRabble, I cannot follow that last one... what do you mean?

2:03 am

te 6 --add to examine again: ****st

2:03 am

could it be a numeral + a formal piece of clothing worn around the neck?

2:03 am

an enemy sprite

2:03 am

****sis

2:04 am

oh, thanks ruru, but I meant the other post, about the really scary thing.

2:04 am

to (200lbs) + ****sis

2:04 am

oh

2:04 am

sorry

2:04 am

people are unique they are unique because their experience is only their own .. often what is believed to be common ground differs because of different life experiences

2:04 am

don't say sorry, sweet of you to help me

2:04 am

yup I do get it either babble

2:05 am

bab- not getting the te6

2:06 am

it starts with the number, then i lose it

2:06 am

now I get it, thanks. Yes, that is so true. It takes a lot of communication to acquire some understanding of things that are obvious to the other person.

2:06 am

jasmine: formal dress: black ***, white ***.

2:07 am

I see why I don't do so well at these puzzles...I don't know all these uncommon words! I have not been around Babble long enough yet, I guess.

2:07 am

have that one sprite. i need the very last te6/18

2:07 am

that is the te before it sprite we need the next 6/18

2:08 am

te 6 -- cement: conc****

2:08 am

that is the one BabbleRabble clued. 3 syllables. Te + you are tired, you need a **st + an exam is a **st.

2:09 am

got it

2:09 am

got it thanks, bab! u are fab

2:09 am

thanks babble and sprite

2:09 am

You guys are amazing.

2:09 am

Elsh: correct. There are a lot of words that are part of the enable dictionary, but are not common at all. We call them babblets. You will be learning them along the way and then you will spot them easier.

2:09 am

Yeah..

2:09 am

I was just about to have terrets syndrome

2:10 am

I know this..I do have trouble remembering them though and I'm always seeing a lot of new strange words that I learn from clues.

2:10 am

lol ruru

2:10 am

down to 9 now! need re6/18

2:11 am

there are some I still don't spot easily, lol. Part of the fun for me... there is hardly a day that I don't look at myself amazed that I missed something AGAIN.

2:11 am

I am new at this too elsh and I am trying to learn the weird words that keep repeating themselves

2:11 am

I'm glad the puzzles have been small lately. Makes me feel like I made SOME kind of progress. XD

2:11 am

lol ruru... not that new anymore.

2:11 am

I should be Japanese I get hit with so much fish

2:12 am

I started this in August I think.. so only 9 months

2:12 am

huh? why not hitmen?

2:12 am

I started in January.

2:13 am

re 6 -- add 13 - 19: **e*ag*r

2:13 am

And I don't get on all the time.

2:13 am

I thought of that too sprite

2:13 am

what do you get when a jewish person opens a japanese restaurant?

2:13 am

not sure

2:14 am

thanks BabbleRabble

2:14 am

the enable word gods are an eccentric lot

2:14 am

sosumi

2:14 am

lol

2:14 am

hehe

2:14 am

why do long married jewish men die young...

2:14 am

looks like my knowledge of jiddish is insufficient to get that joke

2:15 am

the comparative suffix is on display today

2:15 am

why?

2:16 am

because they want to..

2:16 am

my best friend (Jewish) told me that one

2:16 am

chuckle

2:16 am

do you know what you get when a Jewish person marries and Catholic and has a child?

2:17 am

a Catholic

2:17 am

I wonder why I'm seeing people's old icons or no icons...like jasmine's just looks like a black box unless i go to the profile.

2:17 am

.. A Cashew...

2:17 am

happens all the time, Elsh. Refreshing or force-refreshing helps.

2:17 am

ahaha

2:18 am

cute

2:18 am

ah

2:18 am

that happens sometime

2:18 am

I am a litlle uncomfortable with the jewish jokes, to be honest.

2:18 am

Morning all. Sprite, how is hubby now?

2:18 am

I was laughing at the puns -- not jewish people.

2:19 am

just so anyone knows.

2:19 am

sorry, sprite. they are not mean spirited.

2:19 am

I am married to a Jewish person and the Jewish people tell these jokes to me all the time..it is not a racist thing..they laugh at their phobias and stuff like everyone else

2:19 am

good day, Frances

2:19 am

makes sense, ruru :)

2:20 am

hi Frances! He went to the doctor yesterday. He is not allowed to work for a while, must go do things he likes if he can. Also has been referred to a therapist. He is dead tired, down and teary. Needs lots of hugging, which I am happy to give. And am grateful he is that open.

2:20 am

the ones i don't like are the blonde jokes. and i'm not blonde. i just find them irritating

2:21 am

Is he depressed sprite?

2:21 am

they are often dumb, jasmine (the jokes).

2:21 am

most jokes are

2:21 am

yeah, I think it is different when jewish people tell them themselves. Just wanted to let you know it made me feel uncomfortable.

2:22 am

very much so, ruru

2:22 am

yeah but i find that i laugh less at blonde ones, i guess (shrug)...and I'm not blonde either.

2:22 am

the blond ones are always lame

2:23 am

yeah that's what i meant

2:23 am

I always walk away from racist jokes but my Jewish friends are relentless in telling them

2:23 am

I like the one about the brown hair dye though

2:23 am

Good that he went to the doctor sprite and good that he feels abe to talk........it's good to talk. Big hug for you. Keep your chins up.

2:23 am

well, with new gene info, we could all be jewish or african. i think humans should be able to laugh at themselves, poke FUN (not hate) at each other and then go on with life

2:23 am

i haven't heard that one, sprite

2:24 am

Mr. P had a great one a while ago. Can't remember it though but laugh for a long time on that one

2:24 am

he does not talk, alas. But he wants hugs. And he will go to the therapist because he realises something must be done.

2:24 am

That is a start there

2:24 am

what do blondes call brown hair dye?

2:24 am

do6/21 please?

2:24 am

i hope he feels better soon, sprite. i know how terrible and relentless depression can be.

2:25 am

I agree, ruru, He does wonderfully considering the circumstances.

2:25 am

i don't know, sprite, what?

2:25 am

they call it artificial intelligence

2:25 am

lol

2:25 am

haha, that one is funny XD

2:25 am

:)

2:26 am

Um.. sprite.. I am just a little uncomfortable with dumb blond jokes...

2:26 am

lol

2:26 am

actually, ruru, this is a smart blonde one ;)

2:26 am

do 6/21 more than do 4/5

2:26 am

some of my best friends are blond

2:26 am

lolololol

2:27 am

OH that covers it

2:27 am

good one ruru

2:27 am

thanks mayne

2:28 am

and I know you are not a racist in any way, ruru. It is just that it is so easy to offend people. Especially if they don't know you and your background.

2:28 am

sorry kiwi to see your note about your boss' wife... must be a terribly tough time. Similar thing here with my hubby's uncle. ty Thazzy

aunt is thinking of taking him to a specialist in Seattle...

ty jas

2:52 am

the hardest thing dee is that i dont know what to say - what do you say to a woman who has now had the official "your dying" speech

you tell them how much you care about them and for them & spend as much time offering help as you can

you tell them how much you care about them and for them & spend as much time offering help as you can

2:53 am

as long as you remember that NOT saying anything is the worst solution, Kiwi. Seriously. Better say: I don't know what to say, than not say anything at all.

2:53 am

ive done that much

hubby's uncle heard that speech on Tuesday of this week

agreed sprite

2:54 am

am so sorry, Dee and Kiwi.

2:54 am

im hoping my boss does what he was going to do before she went into hospital is spend a few months overseas travelling with her before its too late

have all the marrow and stem cells to implant, but can't get his cancer "killed" to use them

agreed kiwi

2:54 am

well, i better go back to bed and cuddle my own DH. good night babblebuds

Hello! Afternoon checkup...

5:01 am

hello

5:01 am

something seems to be wrong with chat

5:02 am

Hi C

5:02 am

hi Jim

5:03 am

Good morning.

5:03 am

good morning

5:03 am

hi ajv...little early for an "afternoon checkup", at least from my locale :)

5:03 am

gidday Eva

5:03 am

Greetings Eva

5:05 am

My first time chatting (Didn't realize I could. I thought that was a "pay" feature).

5:05 am

My first time chatting (Didn't realize I could. I thought that was a "pay" feature).

5:05 am

welcome Jim!

5:05 am

welcome Jim

5:05 am

6am here in Vermont

5:06 am

3-ish in LA

5:06 am

likewise here Eva, am in Toronto visiting sons

5:06 am

have 35 left and been stuck for quite some time. Haven't gone to sleep yet Jim (you party animals out in LA!)or up early?

5:07 am

Just got home from work

5:07 am

wow. Can't imagine working those hours, being an early riser.

5:07 am

Where does it say how many words you should be able to get?

5:09 am

I'm not sure that you get that without paying Jim, but there are 126 today. In the pay version it shows up under the grid

5:09 am

Along with the boxes which show you how many words can be made with each square. Do you have that?

5:09 am

AHHH...THAT'S what I'm missing out on with being a cheapskate :)

5:10 am

But I think that even without paying you can scroll down to Licketys page and click on that link and get most everything.

5:10 am

It is, however, a very cheap deal.

5:11 am

morning all

5:11 am

No boxes either. No wonder the chats I've read have sometimes seemed like a secret code...Yeah, I should spring for it, cause I do get a lot of entertainment here...Hi Pink :)

5:11 am

hi pink

5:12 am

Good Morning, late night evening to all, wow a normal size grid today.

5:14 am

hello all - i am sneaking a few words in whilst at work

5:14 am

is that a second on7/32 FMIthch. And yes, longtime no see. I've been playing very early and also lurking a lot.

but it looks challenging, especially with no S.

ah but instead of plurals we have RE words!!!

5:15 am

Yes, the letter "S" is our friend, isn' t it?

5:15 am

oops sorry only 1 x on7 bu there are 2 x te7 - 7/28 and 7/32

I love the letter S.

5:15 am

re's should be banned. Once is enough to do anything!

but Re's are he** instead.

5:16 am

here

5:17 am

and Jim if off to the PB

5:17 am

te7/29 hmmmm

serving blueberry muffins for Breakie.

5:18 am

In code Jim, that means that you spelled a word out in the chat log and are exiled the penalty box-where they often serve a wonderful breakfast(-:

5:18 am

Im downloading some s/w and its gone v slow since I started chatting so will go back to lurk mode again. Start with the canvas house Eva and build on for 2 x 6 and the 7

its a bit of an odd punishmet.

5:19 am

LOL...Sorry folks. A chat newbie here.

5:19 am

we all do it Jim-the perils of chatting and playing at the same time

It's Ok Jim, I do it every day practically, which is why I'm serving the muffins today...lol.

5:22 am

can't see it FMitvch!

5:22 am

have the te 4 and one of the 6's, but am completely blind to the other 6 and the 7

5:22 am

eva there are 4 te's that build of the canvas house

5:23 am

ummm take the canvas house and make it more so or take the 2nd 6 and ad a cons to the end.

5:23 am

one sounds like a canvas house groupie, one like the user of the house

5:23 am

the te 7 is more so

5:24 am

OMG! Those are really words?!

5:24 am

Thanks!

5:24 am

of course they are !!

5:24 am

*giggle*

apparentlyt they are, but I imagine maybe they dont have to do with canvas homes.

whats the theme today>>> bugs?

5:25 am

must have a different meaning

5:25 am

getting out fly swatter and Raid

5:25 am

LOL some might say creepy crawlies - I think it's UK Prime Ministers.

5:26 am

or U.S. politicians

I looked it up, dict. seems to not know what it means either neither the encyclopedia brittanica...but I did learn that today was the day Las Vegas NV was founded...

5:27 am

imagining how those 2 are related

LOL knitter!!!

5:29 am

geez too many Twords

wow, over half way. this is a gentle grid.

{{{{carlee}}}}

6:09 am

morning all

Hi Sadie

6:09 am

wtg aussie

6:09 am

Morning Sadie !

Hi Sadie

6:09 am

thanks Blue !

I am in glee Bones is back on boooyah

6:09 am

yay Herin !

6:09 am

hiya aussieme and hereinfernallady

Sadie call me Herin

6:10 am

and Me Aussie !.... we all friends here...

6:10 am

oks sorry bout that :)

6:10 am

too much "hatred" ... there enough of it in the world...but to hate someone in a sport of which really is to be an "enjoyable pasttime" rather then a reason to hate and villify... no thanks..i'll stick to hockey... at least the fans and the team members at the end of the day...like eachother..and just jokingly tease and taunt the other team

THats ok

Ok beat the snot out of each other on the Pitch

6:11 am

what bothers me most if their behaviour shows our youngsters how to behave

Opps Not Pitch ICE

6:12 am

I dont like that side of the "sport".

6:12 am

it's not like that (very often) and it's only a bit of fun on here Carlee I don't mean anything by what I say

6:13 am

I've been to 100's of hockey games... I have seen maybe 30 fights... I have never seen fans beating on eachother cus of who they cheer for... and...each hockey player is wearing somewhere inthe neighbourhood of 1-2000.00 worth of protective equipment....a footballer wears what...some shin pads and a jock?

6:14 am

I dont HATE any players carlee...... I just dont LIKE some of the teams.... I would never fight for that kind of thing, I think it is dumb !!

6:14 am

and any fan of either team can go into a visitors arena and not worry about losing life or limb for or any blood for cheering for the away team

Yep and real talent on the ball. But then again you have to have some balls to play on ice with those blades on your feet

6:15 am

I know what you mean carlee...... I really dont support that aspect of the game. I support the proper game......

6:16 am

am not discounting the talent... on either side...i don't support the mob pack zealots who eat live breath their team to the detriment and villification of the other team....

Carlee some are like that with AFL here and the b.s thing is some of the footballers treat women like dogshit and they lap it up

6:17 am

and u rarely if ever..see the "proper" game anymore... can u ever imagine chelsea and man u sitting down together in a pub...moments after a game and tossing back a few pints and sharing laughs?...what about the fans?????

6:17 am

ok, al5/10 the second please.... I have monkeyed and nothing is working.

6:17 am

I know carlee.... I know...

6:17 am

G'd morning Babblers! Ack, ANOTHER small grid?

Hi Lori

6:18 am

LoriP !!!!!!!!!

6:18 am

priest's table?

6:18 am

am just saying... it is for that nonsense... I will never be a fan..no matter how good the athletics are...

6:18 am

Aussie! You've been scarce lately. :(

Monkey thats the wrong vowel ending you mean to Adjust something

6:18 am

morning Lori

6:18 am

Carlee after every game both teams go and meet, have drinks and a meal together

6:19 am

Oh for goodness sake !! Thanks Monkey !!

6:19 am

Aussie did you get the clue?

6:19 am

Good morning/day everyone

6:19 am

Should I look at the little yellow tiles, or just keep swilling coffee?

6:19 am

and what about the fans monkey?

6:19 am

I did Monkey !

6:19 am

hi scrabs

HI Scrabbler

6:20 am

morning scrabbler

Scrabbler that was silly

6:20 am

Cool icon, Aussie.

6:20 am

Well Carlee I know that my local team plays our arch rivals we meet before and after the game but it doesn't happen very often

6:21 am

G'd morning Scrabbler. It was cold here last night too.

6:21 am

It was silly!

6:22 am

How nice to have a grid where I can find some "normal" words.

6:23 am

I'm not trashing it monkey... I've watched...several matches... and the fighting and brawling... the songs that encourage ...to me... from where I sit... and comments like was made about most hated footballer in world....I just think with all the crap in the world... with all the hatred...why look for yet another past time that seems on all accounts from whre I sit..to encourage more hatred...and no respect

6:24 am

that is all...

6:24 am

stepping off soapbox and divinginto grid

Hugs Carlee

6:25 am

{{herin}}

Scrabbler something sad happened yesterday to Jac regarding Flosie bunny, his/her grave was raided by a sodding fox. I am not sure if Flosie is gone. But its very sad

7:11 am

Oh, no! That is my fear with Callie--I keep checking her grave site.

Yes bloody foxies.

7:11 am

when i buried my last hamster, i put him in a box, and wrapped it all round with lots of duct tape, and then wrote his epitaph on that.

7:11 am

Well, I must get ready for hospital rounds.

7:12 am

and i must go to work too, ttfn all

Scrabbler hope your day isn't too tough on you.

Hurshy that is sweet

7:12 am

Yah Flosey

7:13 am

I placed Callie in a box, wrote an epitaph on the box, placed the box in a large plastic bag, duct-taped that, and placed rocks and branches on the grave---still, foxes, coyotes, racoons are persistent.

Mr Pres take care

Thats ok Mr Pres. You can message me from Facebook in private conversations

I am still chilling out form earlier. Real Chinese food from Springvale Asian central

8:08 am

mmmmm.....chinese food.....

This is the real deal. SO good

8:08 am

my choices for lunch today are either leftover pizza (which i didnt eat yesterday) or leftover skillet lasagne + salad...

7 course banquet at $36

per head

8:09 am

yummy

No we didn't have money but we had to remove the gloom

My b.f works in the area so he knows the non dodgy places

8:11 am

its always good to know which places are good, decent + crappy... i love hole-in-the-wall places, so long as theyre good...

You search for the most populated by Asians and wam best food eva

8:13 am

maybe I should just give up for now - so may distractions!

8:13 am

its tricky for me -- i work near chinatown + even the asians settle for the crappy places here, just because theyre quick. here, you gotta follow the asian tourists...heh

That is true. Green don't give up

8:14 am

eva, funny icon! :)

8:14 am

(I never give up, I just whine)

8:14 am

thanks, green. :)

Nice Eva

I keep annoying the cat

8:16 am

the PS is tough to read....it says "dad says i should give you some money (crossed out) financial aid. how much would you like?" (but of course, its all spelled like a little kid would spell it)

Like it Eva

8:17 am

lol Eva, how many more months w/this guy? 6? 7? lol

8:17 am

my other idea was some sort of comparison between tony blair + C3PO -- i really think they sound the same!

8:18 am

6 to the election, 9 til the new one is sworn in! heh

then that will be another 4 years and the bitching and whining will start again

8:18 am

http://www.bushslastday.com/

8:18 am

I know I know...counting them down too

8:19 am

I love the bumper stickers that just say "1/20/09"

8:19 am

me too :)

8:19 am

nah, the bitching and whining will start in Nov

8:19 am

start?? does it ever end?

true

8:21 am

what does the small numbers under the letters mean?

8:21 am

ok, really have to run - ttyl

Points

hello all i am back. 47 more. to go .

8:27 am

herin -- im in denial that there ARE any...heh

there is Hi Red

8:27 am

60 to go.... *poof

Hi Herin...

Ok how long have the people on Lost been on that island? How come their clothes are still perfect and the guy on there is still a fat bastard

Ok ok so its a telly show but gees borring enough allready

dunno, have not watched it...it tht the show with Wilson the ball>

No no thats Castaways...

That was shit too

8:29 am

theyve been there for about 3-4 months...supposedly crashed in september + now its supposed to be around christmas or so...

but ffs borring

i did not see it, but my trainer often hands me a ball, whom we now call wilson, fo some reason related to castaways.

8:30 am

Hurley (the fat guy) is still fat because they found the stash of food left from the Dharma people...plenty!

it does

Ok Eva i don't watch it but seriously crap

8:31 am

in Castaway, tom hank had a Wilson-brand volleyball so talked to it like it were a person...

8:31 am

i LOVE me some Lost. you have to have watched it from the beginning to "get" it...

oooh. One day she handed me a ball, not a volleyball and said, see its your new best friend, like Wilson...

I looked at her blankly.

8:32 am

Castaway was a wonderful movie...and the reason the ball was called Wilson was because it was a ball made by Wilson (the company).

but of course, I call the ball Wilson all the time now...

it does help if yo uhave seen the film.

8:33 am

No 1 daughter confessed to floods of tears when Wilson floated away. I haven't seen the film but it must have been good to get that reaction.

last film I saw was Harry Potters last. not too well done...

8:33 am

yeah...he stranded on this island for years, presumed dead bu everyone, and "Wilson" was his only friend...

8:33 am

Castaway inspires a lot of emotions...in me at least. I love it.

Well, all the balls at the training center I now call Wilson...

sigh

8:34 am

Harry Potter books were barely even written okay, I don't see the films doing much better.

Castaway was long and boring in my opinion but if it makes someone happy so be it

I enjoyed Harry Potter. I never thought I would, but Mom sent me one.

The thing i like about Harry Potter is it got non readers reading

8:35 am

That's the thing. Personal opinion. We're all entitled to them though some seem to think they're more entitled to them than others.

was that directed at me Haz?

LOL Haz...

8:36 am

It only got non-readers reading Harry Potter. I know too many people who think that cuz they read those seven books they are now well educated. Harry Potter was a sad grab at money, and worked well.

8:36 am

I can generalise like anybody else.

I think it was a general statement. And yes, I wonder if those no readers are reading mroe now, or just playing wizards.

Uni I have just started reading the books

Herin, they're kind of fun if a bit tedious at times with some iffy endings here and there.

, and hi all, just have a few minutes.

I enjoyed them Herin. My sister too, and My Mom...My Dad is too sophisticated for such nonsense.

If you like really good fantasy you shouldn't bother, by the way. I read them all because someone gave me a boxed set.

hi Monkey.

8:38 am

hi, all. we had severe storms in the area last night, but we made it through with no harm.

8:38 am

Read them as they came out, just like I read anything else. Re-read them this summer before reading the seventh and realized the treendously poor quality writing. The style, grammar...everything. I barely made it through again and was saddened that it is so critically acclaimed.

8:38 am

i love me some harry potter...sorry to admit it to those who dont!

The Goolden Compass books were better.

I actually havent noted that they were actually critically acclaimed Uni. A lot of "scholastic" style hoopla was made over them, but they don't seem to be acclaimed as great pieces of literature...

But what's REALLY good is teh BAroque books by Neil Stephenson.

The best I have read for kids was Lloyd Aleanders series....

8:39 am

The storyline didn't bother me that much...just an amalgamation of many hundreds of other stories..the writing bothered me. (Liked Golden Compass, re-read those MANY times so far).

8:40 am

i guess when i read stuff like harry potter, im not really reading it as a piece of literature, but just as a story...

I so want a second breakfast...darn it all....what to doi.

8:41 am

I don't think Harry Potter should have been for kids. Not young kids at least. I found it all so bleak and hopeless. Prefer the humor of "series of unfortunate events" when younger.

8:41 am

morning all

My ????? internet keeps dieing

lemony snicket is funny, but i never read the book, only saw film on a plane once...

8:41 am

Morning Saphyre!

HI Saph

hi saphyre

8:42 am

see, i found those quite tedious + predictable. read one, and youve read them all... but i guess the message is a bit better for young children, i agree there...

8:42 am

Red - the movie was three books in one, I was disappointed with it. Bad idea.

OK, I really meant it about a few minutes. Went to school (LONG day all in Dutch), came back and lurked to 38 words, now off I must trot to take the dog out and get Walter from daycare. Have fun, everyone!

when i was 6-7 my dad read us tolkien...and homer, both oddly good choices when read aloud....

8:43 am

bye Monkey

bye monkey.

8:43 am

I guess I should admit that by the seventh, I had "grown out of them". I know they went on much longer, but I found them much less tedious than the thousands of pages of H.P. Again, maybe an age thing. My standards were much less a few years ago.

8:44 am

i think now, im longing more for the books of my youth...maybe thats why i do like HP...a nice simple, easy read. :)

to eat or not to eat...

8:44 am

sometimes a "nice simple read" is great :)

8:44 am

If I go childlike, I go way back. Alice, Winnie, Munsch, Seuss. Tolkien irritates me. I loved the Hobbit but loathed LotR. Only made it through 1, 2 and half of three. Couldn't make it to the end.

8:44 am

There would be something wrong if your literary tastes didn't change with age. And your choice of reading can depend on circumstances and mood.

8:45 am

i shall NEVER outgrow shel silverstein. :)

i do wish someone would unearth a hidden cache of new Geroges Simenon mysteries...such economy of words....

UNi its funny you should say that about Harry Potter books. Colleen McCullough said the same thing that her inner critique couldn't read the books

8:46 am

HP not a simple read to me. Took too much concentration on her loose-ends and plot changes. There. Done.

I was trying to have a discussion but the stupid net dies on me tonight.

8:48 am

harry potter is nice boks

8:48 am

books*

see i read just about anything. Classics to moderns

8:50 am

me too herin

8:50 am

I hated classics as a kid. Thank god I grew out of that!

8:51 am

I think that at the end of it all, getting people (not just kids but adults too) to read is more important than how good the writing or quality of story.

8:51 am

I ran a book store for a while and saw some pretty strange stuff

8:51 am

Read every one of the couple hundred baby-sitters club (GAH!). Wish I had cared more about what I read, but I still don't. If it has words, I will read it.

8:51 am

exactly Krysten

I remember one of my first books was Fox in Soxs my dad bought it and i was 3

8:52 am

Mothers wold come in for there magazines and when their kids wanted a "goosebump" book, the mother would say "well, you've got a choice...ice cream or book."

UNi if you still have those baby sitter books i may have a buyer if you want to sell them

8:52 am

geez

8:52 am

*would

I'm not sure actually, reading junk...well, its just junk, but i think harry is not junk...but i guess i think poorly of formula novels like harlequins.

8:52 am

*their

8:53 am

Lori made me get rid of hundreds and hundreds of books a few years back. They are long gone.

8:53 am

ice cream or a book? that is crazy

8:53 am

wow, am I off today...

8:53 am

I agree. If your child wants to read...encourage it

8:53 am

I love to read and have since very small

8:53 am

and I'll read almost anything...

8:53 am

if it wants to read give it the right books

Uni a friend of mine is agter the books

library...I think its important to own books at home, but library use, soooo good for all of us.

opps after

8:54 am

and librarys makes all authors so accessible...

8:54 am

my oldest daughter carried a book with her, even to bed from the time she wa 2 - I am going to her graduation from law school on Sunday

8:54 am

can a letter be used more than once in same word?

Thanks Red must must must do that

no klikk, sorry...

OH Saph how lovely

8:55 am

dammit

8:55 am

a letter can, but a tile cant...

8:55 am

Herin, they were all given away a long time ago. I got rid of at least half my books and still have shelves and trunks full. It's a dangerous habit when you have no space.

8:55 am

yeah - I am very proud of her

8:55 am

I must admit that the Harry Potter books are a guilty pleasure for me, by the way, hi everyone :)

8:56 am

hi pabtrek

8:56 am

Hello pabtrek.

8:56 am

btw.. all those flags beside your name is that where you are from?

8:56 am

btw.. all those flags beside your name is that where you are from?

uni, you should see my dad "office' its a bit gross he double shevles the books and there are still piles...but he is a writer and prof, sooo.

8:56 am

yes -- one of the joys that comes with going Pro. :)

hi pabtrek.

8:57 am

kk anoing they dont got danish flag

I thouhgt they did kik...

8:57 am

they probably do, just no one online right now with one...

8:58 am

well cant find it under my account

8:58 am

I think they have Danish..

because klikk you aren't pro, i am guessing.

8:58 am

you need to go pro klikko

8:58 am

have you paid to go pro? you wont have a flag otherwise...

8:59 am

ahh

8:59 am

There, I am from Denmark for a bit...this it?

9:00 am

hello

9:00 am

funny only englsih talkin countrys here :d

9:00 am

ok back to packing - be back in a bit

9:01 am

There are lots of english as a second language babblers here, actually. Not right now, but..

9:01 am

if you didnt speak english it would be tough to play since the grid is in english...

9:01 am

Eva - sort of! :D

9:01 am

i mean only englsih talking countrys flags in chat

9:02 am

Although a few years back the world Scrabble champs were non English speaking Thai guys

9:02 am

well, those are the only people currently playing...

9:02 am

And the queen of Babble (in my esteem) is Dutch

9:03 am

not many people play from non-english speaking countries (though, as uni said, there are some english second-language speakers in here sometimes)

9:04 am

quess its easyer for you guys than for me ^^

9:04 am

got this game from my english teacher

9:05 am

its definitely a good game to learn new words -- even those of use who only speak english learn new words every day playing this game. :)

9:05 am

It's certainly easier for native English speakers, but a large number of words in the grid are unknown to most English speakers

9:05 am

like the bloodcell one

9:06 am

If you want to learn the meaning of the words you find, click on the question marks and it will take you to an online dictionary

9:07 am

9:39 am

yup. change the last letter on the plant

9:39 am

there also an FE5 before the plant

Hey, BR, love the quote. I have to lok one up for you... have you read the Cryptonomicon? The first chapter is concerned with how every single living thing, due to the process of natural selection, is by definition a Stupendous Badass, or it wouldn't be alive. Thought it might make a good correlary to your quote.

9:41 am

cockroaches have been around a very long time

9:41 am

yes, don't have that either, but I'm wokring on it

9:41 am

unfortunately - that is true

Indeed. The author in this case meant individuals, though. Each and every living thing is a Stupendous Badass.

Every human, dog, amoeba, etc.

Indeed, every fe4.

specially the two on my deck. They've been through a lot.

9:43 am

the FE is between the first 2 FE4

9:46 am

Hey Carlee - how did you like this grid

11:58 am

i hated this grid..thanks

11:59 am

any good hints?

11:59 am

I have 61 words without the list

11:59 am

run away from it fast...or find urself a nice glass of merlot

12:01 pm

if I have H 5/5 does that mean five words five points or five letters five points?

12:01 pm

since I am a non-drinker AND am working at a high school the consequences would probably be too great

12:02 pm

Jor, are you refering to the boxes below the grid?

12:02 pm

under the tile stats things

12:03 pm

That means you have five of the five words for that h.

12:04 pm

ohhhh so ie F 6/9 means I have 6 of 9 words starting with F?

12:04 pm

Yes.

12:04 pm

thank you!

12:05 pm

hi all - I don't even have a minute - just testing my theme

12:05 pm

Each tile in the grid has a corresponding box in the stats panel.

1:51 pm

no it means I am the typo queen

hi autumn, how ya doin?

hi everyone!

Lind- things are going okay. I'm off work til Tues. When I went to Ott last month I travelled on my days off so I have lieu days

1:52 pm

heneton????

oh cool autumn! so are you coming to see me???!!!

1:53 pm

Not working - *she sings**

1:53 pm

And I will be in TO for a couple days at least.

oh it would be lovely to meet up

Vic - doesn't work for me

he6/21 you are **** + the opposite of from.

vicuna, hellon, and for some reason that very clear clue is not working...

1:54 pm

vicuna - WITH the wheels - are they spinning???

thank you spec

thank you spec

hi all

1:55 pm

Oh, specificity is right, it's opp of from not opp of off. Sorry.

1:55 pm

thank your for the specifications

1:55 pm

That was a deliberate clue error by Vicuna to test if you were all paying attention.

np vic

hi anno

*off to bury myself in grid*

that works! ty.

only 2 to go and I am struggling!!

hi haz how ya doin?

1:56 pm

Alas, Haz. When one is told on Babble that a clue is not working, one is expected to jump to it, jump to it now, and produce clues of perfection until such time as they work.

hi lindrick

1:56 pm

Hello there - I'm well, thank you.

I lost myself in the he6 clue

me 6/21 2nd one please

1:57 pm

Stand your ground, Vicuna. It was a deliberate ploy to make them work, wasn't it? (That's our cover story)

HE 6 he 4/5 & I am going ** the fair!!

LOL vicuna

yes it did work - it made me look really hard and spot lots of other words too

1:58 pm

haz and vic are starting an alliance - watch out for those

1:58 pm

me6 profession (french)

thanks une

1:59 pm

Starting? We've been in alliance for ages. And look how far it's gotten us.

I'm at the inventing words stage already and I've still got 43 to find

1:59 pm

yw :-)

1:59 pm

We'll only let people in if they can learn a secret handshake and can count to fifty in Serbo-Croat.

I think I'm getting worse at this game

1:59 pm

help with the last re 6/21?

now debating if I should drink coffee as its 3 pm already....

2:00 pm

*rushes to the nearest Serbo-Croation dictionary Google can provide*

coffee is always a good choice

oh I've got the re6.21

to tell again davis

no one expects perfection, Vic. Personally, when a clue "doesn't work" because of inaccuracy, it has led to some pretty frustrating moments. I appreciate your help.

probably wont sleep well anyway...never do before work...

2:01 pm

I have one re 6/21, the one that has to do with the clock. Hint for the other?

2:02 pm

Oh, my apologies are most abject, I assure you, autumn moon!

to tell again davis

2:02 pm

re6/21 - descriptive of an oft repeated story

it was that your clue was so faboo that I was sure you meant something else...or that i had lost my mind...

2:03 pm

Thanks! :)

on 7/32 please

2:04 pm

on7 - run together a number and what the clock tells

2:04 pm

on7/32 - You had to pay a on7 fee to go pro, but you never have to pay again.

2:04 pm

Unless Dr-G hits hard times.

thanks guys great clues

2:05 pm

You are a cynical woman, Haz.

ellen has good music on today....

2:05 pm

Or unless he comes up with a super-duper version in Serbo Croat for those specially favoured in that language.

2:05 pm

on 7/32: compound word, number + clock

2:05 pm

Oh, thanks, Vicuna. I love a compliment.

haz is a bit cynical, but it is refreshing...

2:06 pm

A bit cynical? I'll have to work on my cynicicicicism. It's clearly not up to the levels I'd like.

2:06 pm

hello all - migraine here... DA please? down to 41

Hi stid, you are beating me so soundly in Scrabble!!!

hi stid aaww ((((stid)))))

I mena over on Facebook, not scrabble. oh darn it all.

2:07 pm

da6 - unit of atomic weight, apparently named after 007's Roger

2:07 pm

da6/21 - a gang from the wild west, stid.

2:07 pm

oh red, it's my once-a-month good tile draw, I assure you!

2:07 pm

da - mostly clued as Timothy the Bond actor. Or three quarters of Salavdor, and a British heavy weight.

2:07 pm

Oh bother. Not Roger. Time for me to give up.

2:07 pm

me too stid...not quite migraine - but nothing has gotten it gone

2:07 pm

Salvador, I mean.

2:07 pm

great grammar huh

2:07 pm

thanks all. never knew it had an atomic meaning!

2:07 pm

Roger Moore - Roger Daltry?

2:08 pm

da gang from the wild west

2:08 pm

Definitely not Roy Rogers. They couldn't get the horse onto the 007 set.

2:08 pm

I took the medicine as soon as the aura started... but four hours in bed it's still here. I'm only up because the dogs were desperate. :-(

2:08 pm

LOL Haz- that was my first thought too

2:09 pm

hm. DO 6 please? down to 36

2:09 pm

Nor Ginger Rogers. She could whirl 007 around so fast he'd be dizzy.

2:09 pm

Hello stidmama.

nah, Stid, I'm not terribly good at it, but I love to play, so I dont mind getting beat up...

2:09 pm

Did you have the comic book character Roger the Dodger?

2:09 pm

He was the love-child of the Artful dodger. Bad news.

2:09 pm

Not that I know of. But there's Roger Rabbit.

still struggling with ME 6/21 2nd one, had a clue but can't monkey it!! PLEASE???

2:10 pm

do 6 = do + ti 4/4

2:10 pm

The Artful Dodger had a love?

Babble is smashing kittens now? I knew it was evil, but really!

2:13 pm

(It seems to be right, both of them have said it)

2:13 pm

I thought a dobro was a musical instrument????

2:14 pm

Can I please speak English now and roll my trouser leg down?

2:14 pm

DObro is a brand name of instrument. And mine is just fine, thank you.

2:14 pm

Goodness knows what it is in Serbo Croat. We could be saying anything.

2:15 pm

Google is a marvelous and magical thing.

2:15 pm

Well, okay, trouser leg down, but you have to stand up, turn around three times and then cough.

2:15 pm

Then try not to stagger. It's dizzying.

2:15 pm

And in any case, FM, it's good to see you.

2:15 pm

*spin spin* crashes into Vi

2:16 pm

Well, not THAT good...

2:16 pm

Yes, indeed. We'll have to work on your spinning technique.

2:16 pm

i'm back - what did I miss?

2:16 pm

Ginger Rogers isn't around to give lessons, alas.

2:16 pm

2:16 pm

Poor stidmama. Let's all hold very still and speak in gentle, soothing whispers.

2:17 pm

Yes, whirling Dervish has to be worked up to.

2:17 pm

Wonder what the Serbo croat for whisper is?

2:17 pm

Have fun with the pottering, Lindrickway!

2:17 pm

Glad to sit down for 5 mins

2:17 pm

2:17 pm

2:18 pm

aargh. Too many twisty words today

2:18 pm

Umm it seems to have several translations Haz: sapat, "saptanje, do"saptavanje, "sum, "sustanje

2:18 pm

sapat, with various diacriticals

2:18 pm

I'm sure Roger the Dodger has reformed now.

2:18 pm

38 left - should I quit??

2:18 pm

(FM beats me to it, as usual.)

2:19 pm

later Lindy!

2:19 pm

They're probably different forms of whisper.

2:19 pm

The conspiratorial whisper

2:19 pm

Ha!

2:19 pm

The sweet nothings whisper

2:19 pm

Well, there's noun or verb, to begin with...

I have just had this headache ALL DAY - (that was really a whisper because yelling hurts my head)

2:20 pm

*I'm never gonna dance again, cause guilty feet have got no rhythm...*

2:21 pm

(One of the sillier theories ever espoused in a song, I believe.)

2:21 pm

No please Vi, stop, please don't sing that song. Please stop.

2:21 pm

you want some of my migraine stuff lexleeanne? It's not working well for me today anyway...

2:21 pm

Ginger Rogers must have had a clear conscience, as did Fred Astaire.

2:21 pm

I even dreamt that I had a headache and was going from classroom to classroom asking my teacher friends if I could lay down in their classes - and they all told me that they couldn't allow that to get started in their classes

2:21 pm

You started it, FM.

2:21 pm

2:21 pm

I got the ear plugs and I'm not afraid to use them.

2:27 pm

* very subdues* Yay for stidmama.

2:27 pm

I slept four hours already LBD. *sad face* and the medicine isn't helping much today either.

2:27 pm

ALas, Spangle has never achieved the tricks that dog can do.

2:27 pm

but thanks stid the offer of drugs is tempting

i think I need a nap...but will probably just go to bed really early.

da 6,21 ?

2:27 pm

2nd offer today

2:27 pm

dawg - I joined your Maxine bandwagon for today... my sentiment about work at the moment

2:27 pm

*subdued* So subdued I can't type, apparently.

2:27 pm

I love anything that makes that sour Simon guy smile!

2:27 pm

other from a teen - those were neither prescribed nor legal

2:27 pm

The young girl who trained her said she needed to find something to distract the dog - she's pretty hyperactive.

2:28 pm

i'm sorry to hear that Stid. maybe resting quietly in the dark will help the meds kick in. now i'm going to go enjoy the sunshine. bbl

2:28 pm

did anyone watch the clip I put up earlier

2:28 pm

???

2:28 pm

actor Timothy Da****

2:28 pm

Simon's not sour, he's just sparing in his praise.

2:28 pm

later LBD

2:28 pm

And thanks for the reassurance, Haz, though I am not about to deny being a peculiar word.

2:28 pm

what clip lexlee?

2:29 pm

oh, in the US, both times I tried to watch his show he was just mean and yucky. I don't like him.

2:29 pm

Somewhat sour, but mostly bitter and acidic.

2:29 pm

I'll put it up again - it's a snl clip SO funny

2:30 pm

http://www.nbc.com/Saturday_Night_Live /video/play.shtml?mea=227154

2:31 pm

subdued today too - but still insane

2:31 pm

(Never actually seen the show myself, so time to stop having foundless opinions.)

2:31 pm

If he was jolly and loved everyone it would be seen to be financially rewarding TV

sorry stid - hope you are better

2:31 pm

oh yes, I watched that one on TV recently!

2:31 pm

2:43 pm

2:43 pm

Mokey business!

2:43 pm

Jane, Jane, Jane. FInally realized that physique ain't everything?

2:45 pm

2:46 pm

Thanks, dude.

2:46 pm

Physique is nice, Babbling is better!

2:46 pm

*pokes head into chatlog* how is everyone this afternoon...?

2:46 pm

All those muscle-bound men neglected by women staring at computer screens.

2:47 pm

They'll wonder why they bothered with their weight training.

2:47 pm

Hi, Eva

2:47 pm

Hello EvaN!

2:47 pm

What muscle bound me, where? did I miss them again?

2:47 pm

Well, here is my sad tale. In a rash and thoughtless moment of desperation, I promised that I would play with the kids when I had found all the words...

2:47 pm

That's what comes of studying Serbo croat.

ve 6, 27 ?

2:48 pm

And don't tell me you've gone and put in the last word?

2:48 pm

A likely tale Vi, YOU have hidden the muscle men in your workshop haven't you?

2:48 pm

ve6/27 - French truth

2:48 pm

VE6 = truth

2:48 pm

... and, though I tried and tried to struggle with the vi5/18, in the end one of my meaningless combinations actually worked...

2:48 pm

Or ve8 ve plus a correct sounding word for a ceremony

2:49 pm

3 more words! Help with tr 4/7?

2:49 pm

... and the proverbial piper has come knocking with a large bill due upon receipt.

2:49 pm

And yes, FM, he is a very handsome, muscle-bound piper.

2:49 pm

And I suppose you let out a cry of triumph, thus alerting your children to the fact that you have to do their bidding?

2:49 pm

rhymes with treble cl** on the scale

oh crud, vicuna thanks for reminding me, my whole goal of the day beyond training was to pay 2 bills...

2:50 pm

No, the little twerps were actually looking over my shoulder to make sure I didn't cheat!

2:50 pm

A muscle-bound piper? Is he kilted?

2:50 pm

Hmmm...tried that

2:50 pm

Darn, they are getting clever

2:50 pm

but now it accepted it.....thanks! :)

2:50 pm

They're grabbing em abd physially dragging mw away...

2:50 pm

HELp!!

2:50 pm

Vicuna dear. Haven't you learned the sit and stay technique?

2:50 pm

aaaaahhhhh...............

2:50 pm

.................

It looks like we have a hostage situation.

2:52 pm

Throw jelly at them

2:52 pm

2:52 pm

2:53 pm

LOL

2:54 pm

Hugh Laurie being grumpy!

2:54 pm

Happy Babbling and see you tomorrow

2:54 pm

I'm interested to see that he plays the piano in House as well. Maybe it's written into his contract.

2:55 pm

*quick note smuggled out on toilet tissue -- I am alive, they are treating me well, but I am not permitted to communicate. They are calling me now, and I must go!*

2:55 pm

He plays the guitar

2:55 pm

et 6,18 I meant

2:55 pm

Thank goodness you're being well treated. We'll start a campaign, though. Free the Vicuna.

2:55 pm

Hint for last te 6/18? Please. :)

2:56 pm

et6/18 - a seabird, forever enclosed in vowels.

2:56 pm

2:56 pm

te, then a shortened form of 'with reference to' and end as you began

one who puts up te4

2:57 pm

um, why isn't rehit a word? hi again

2:57 pm

Because it's not nice to hit somebody, never mind rehit them.

2:57 pm

who said I was nice?

2:58 pm

2:58 pm

You're not nice?

hey, peeps

2:58 pm

2:59 pm

what about baseball? first she hit, then she rehit?

2:59 pm

te6/18 - can also be the person who lives in a canvas dwelling. or there's one that adds two vowels to the canvas dwelling.

2:59 pm

give it up asgreen

2:59 pm

yup, have that one, too

2:59 pm

2:59 pm

3:01 pm

this on 7/32 at bad camp

3:01 pm

---- UNO, should I spend time in pb first?

3:01 pm

on 7/32: compound word, number + clock

many's the time I've wanted to get hold of whoever is responsible for the Enable list. I wanna kick out all the non-words, and stick in a bunch of real ones

3:01 pm

I mean this on 7/32 at band camp

3:01 pm

on7 - run together the first number and what the clock tells.

3:02 pm

haz, remember, I'm not very nice....what's more, I'm VERY competitive (even though I use the list)

3:02 pm

We're being very violent tonight. I'll have to start singing peace songs soon.

LOL, haz

i was trying that but had ontimer

3:03 pm

it's day time he4/5, and cocktail hour hasn't started (to smooth the edges)

3:04 pm

phantom retard

3:04 pm

my hand is getting wet reaching all the way across the pond

3:04 pm

--- lol, that was just fun to type

what's gotten into you loons today?

3:04 pm

Just as long as Vicuna doesn't join in. It's probably a good thing she's being held hostage. Not a note in her head, that girl.

loons??? of whom are you speaking????

3:05 pm

she's a lovely singer I've been to many of her concerts

3:05 pm

3:06 pm

3:07 pm

3:07 pm

re5/12: encountered once more

3:07 pm

I should have said that instead of impolitely jumping in

Ah - thanks for that.

3:08 pm

it does eva are you good at painting?

s'aright, west. sometimes the urge is irrepressible :D

3:08 pm

I like it!!! Eva - wish I could go - if only for the name : )

yw, sandie

3:08 pm

that does sound like fun - what are you single? no kids? going out on a date on a Thursday? sooooo jealous!!!

3:08 pm

It does, EvaN . And you get to keep your clothes on?

now, now, green. you knows you lurves those kidlets - even when they're being impossible :)

3:09 pm

Haz means do you HAVE to....

3:09 pm

(I'm always glad when disrobing doesn't form part of EvaN's activities)

3:09 pm

hot date Eva???

???? haz?

3:10 pm

believe it or not, Haz, im perfectly capable of having fun whilst maintaining a full state of dress.

3:10 pm

You see, EvaN has been known to pose for photographs - all done in the best possible taste, of course. I've teased her ever since.

3:10 pm

i dunno if im a good painter, really, but i DO have a mug i painted at pottery that i did to look like a watermelon + i get compliments on it all the time!

3:10 pm

One word left....te 6/18. I have the two that include a canvas dwelling and the one that begins and ends the same.....help! :)

3:10 pm

I do love them, that's true. actually tyger, if I may brag a bit.... TWO people told me today - at two different venues no less - what a good mom I am. I was very flattered, seriously.... my kiddies are good, I'm just ti4/4d

eva, what's at the bottom of the note (your icon)??

3:11 pm

then eva you should have a watermelon martini

3:11 pm

davis - there are two that include the canvas dwelling. One ends in the hospital drama, the other in two vowels.

3:11 pm

ok, I still have uno....let me focus for a bit

3:11 pm

hmmm - eva is avoiding our hot date questions...

davis, there are 2 that include the canvas

3:11 pm

"Dad says I should give you some money [crossed out] financial aid. How much would you like?" (of course, its all written as a child would write it)

3:12 pm

kje -- chris + i live together, so hot dates are few + far between -- especially when (as haz pointed out) ill be remaining fully clothed...heh

yes, I could tell that from the first part ;D

ever see the photo of the George W. Bush Library?

3:13 pm

cant say i have, jean...

3:13 pm

3:14 pm

kje, are you done? (she asks curiously, not competitively)

3:14 pm

haz -- im just a month away from photo session #1 of the summer :)

3:14 pm

yes asgreen - passed you HOURS ago!!!

eva, can you give me a link to a larger image of it?

3:15 pm

wd as

3:15 pm

I thought it must be coming up soon. Are you getting all toned etc?

3:15 pm

kje -- chris and i DO need to have a hot date sometime in the near future... we have both been complaining that we are falling into a bit of a rut lately...

3:15 pm

I TOLD you you would!

say what, dan?

3:15 pm

if, by "toned" you mean "putting on a few extra pounds" then unfortunately, yes...

3:15 pm

ok, I'm going to go cook. One of the little girls is spending the night with us, as her parents had to make a family emergency trip to "say goodbye" to her Aunt - so sad

3:16 pm

yes you did asgreen (damn, she ALWAYS has to be right : )

3:16 pm

I'm sure you'll look fine!

3:16 pm

tyger: http://img1.photobucket.com/alb ums/1003/acelazer/Funnies/blair.jpg

3:16 pm

thx :)

3:17 pm

well, eva, seems like you have the ooportunity...why not tonight - make martini and matisse a hot dat!

3:17 pm

im really trying to get myself motivated to start going to the gym. im unfortunately at my heaviest right now, and not too pleased with myself... but i DID finally get my new bike (though all the evenings ive had time to ride it, its rained!) and i AM trying to shop/cook healthier...

3:17 pm

Then it's the 12-20 with the hospital drama ending

3:17 pm

somebody fish-slap with please with the first no5??

3:18 pm

12-20?

3:18 pm

te**agers

3:18 pm

no 5 - with bumps

3:18 pm

I should have said the numbers between 12 and 20 - the angst years.

no5/12: head motion meaning yes + Mr. Gore's first name

3:19 pm

tyger -- i was also amused with this one, though i found it a bit too offensive for our resident brits: http://z.about.com/d/politicalh umor/1/0/4/T/blair_bum_snort.jpg

3:19 pm

Hooray!!! Thanks, Haz! Fireworks!

3:19 pm

no5 - what Clinton said to Gore when he wanted him to agree.

3:19 pm

Congratulations davis!

3:19 pm

***feels the slap of the cold dead fish***

yay, davis

3:19 pm

thanks

whoa! eva :P

3:20 pm

EvaN, whatever you do, don't resort to the do-it-yourself liposuction kits. That's what happened to Posh Spice.

yw, krys :)

with her money??? haz??

3:22 pm

I should really put an asterisk to indicate that I'm joking. I just had a mental image of her not being able to turn the machine off.

LOL

I was joking, too :D

faux shock

or satire, even ;)

3:23 pm

OK all, im finally free from the shackles of work, so ill see you all tomorrow! :)

3:23 pm

She's lampooned quite a lot over here. Lots of shrieks of 'Daaaaaaaavid!'

later, eva

3:24 pm

Bye EvaN - have a good evening with Matisse.

oh? elucidate?

the shrieks, I mean

3:25 pm

gnite!

3:25 pm

(((((((poof)))))))

3:25 pm

We have several people who impersonate Victoria Beckham - usually protrayed as being sulky and demanding that Daaaaaavid fix everything.

I don't know that much about any of the spices, or soccer

I mean, I knew of whom you spoke, together with his astronomical contract to play soccer in H'wood, etc

3:26 pm

You're missing nothing with any of the Spices. Beckham was a good footballer.

3:26 pm

*stick head round the door* Haz he is playing the piano. poofs again

hey, mitch

oops, she's gone

3:26 pm

Turning on to see.....

yeah, I remember reading about "Bend it like Beckham" :) I do read a couple of newsmagazines (Economist & Newsweek)

who's playing the piano?

3:28 pm

We had been talking earlier on about Hugh Laurie's prowess on the piano. He played when acting in the Jeeves and Wooster series and also plays as House in the TV series.

what sort of music does he play? pops? classical (what era?)

3:29 pm

tyg Bend was a really good movie

not a movie watcher, west. not a snob, just doesn't appeal that much

3:29 pm

more about girls playing recommended by my granddaughters

3:29 pm

He tended to play jazz/blues type stuff on Wooster. I imagine he can turn his hand to most genres.

I gathered that from reviews

3:30 pm

haz how was he on wooster? as acerbic?

thx, haz. I can really get into good blues piano

3:31 pm

No, absolutely not. He played Bertie Wooster, an upper class English twit.

not necessarily so much on jazz. often too abstruse for me - but love classical

except French romantic

3:31 pm

Jeeves, the butler (in the series played by Stephen Fry) is the brains of the outfit.

3:33 pm

I remember reading Jeeves years and years ago is the series based on the books?

French romantic era of classical, I shoulda said

3:33 pm

Yes, Westford, it is. The TV adaptation can't beat them but it is quite funny.

clue for any 7's besides on7/32?

te7: insect that eats wood

3:34 pm

te7 - unwanted insect/creature

almost a snap, haz :)

ty tyger

3:35 pm

te7 - the sort of wedding cake that goes one layer higher than a nine...

fr7: compound word for former slaves

ty haz

yw, esp

3:36 pm

on7 - a single opportunity?

feeling eyestrain again. I won't last much longer in here. :(

that's all of them, esp. only 4

3:38 pm

Sorry, Esprit, didn't read closely enough.

Ok 17 left...

I have no excuse not to complete this one.

go, turtle

oops, exit via PB. sorry *poof*

3:40 pm

3:46 pm

3:47 pm

LOL.

3:47 pm

Busy Lizzies = IMpatiens. Little bedding plants for summer colour.

3:47 pm

i just was consdiering a tour of london and pairs. didn't see any stops along the way haz

13 left

the biggie is in November, but the training is really hard right now because its the foundation and I was a bit out of shape...

3:48 pm

Are you really thinking of coming over, TO?

3:48 pm

and it's getting hot now isn't it?

can't. no passport : (. this tour was cheap arounf 1200

It's been pretty nice. but warm yes.

TO, a passport is easy to get...really.

3:49 pm

So, get a passport! Is it expensive?

3:49 pm

redT, which one is Heidi and which one is Slim?

3:49 pm

it is easy to get but takes awhile - maybe the tour she saw is too soon?

it's time consuming esp this time of year

3:50 pm

How long would it normally take?

Hi babble rabble, neither right now, I switched photos.

Darn it all. I forgot to sewitch tet.

thats my childhood cat Dicie, with a tree that my mom took yesterday.

damn

Slim was the horse, Heidi was the person.

3:56 pm

3:56 pm

Hi Kris

3:56 pm

just had to look at your profile red..that cake sounds delish

3:56 pm

Hi Westford

3:56 pm

Yes, thanks Mom. I tend to chat in my afternoon/US morning time. I was away for a few days last week as well.

I need to make some, but I have been having some food issues lately....

3:57 pm

hi kris too going to look at your profile now

Had horses yesterday....now cats....

3:57 pm

so nice to see you again

Hello kris.

Kris, your icon is distinguished.

3:57 pm

Why, thank you!

3:58 pm

you're welcome

3:58 pm

trying to be with today's theme - my profile is boring

3:58 pm

the icon is a pm named Rosebery

I should follow the theme. but my mom sent the photo and I had seen enough of slim, lola and Heidi.

though i need to call heidi.

3:58 pm

I'm confused it looks sort of like a flower but there's a man when I click on it

3:59 pm

guess I need to refresh

4:00 pm

Kris ... why did you pick him?

4:00 pm

ok better now

4:00 pm

Poor Rosebery didn't last too long, only 15 months apparently.

4:00 pm

I just liked the name

4:01 pm

hey your history is pretty good Haz.

4:01 pm

yes it is pretty

Haz knows all.

4:01 pm

Google's a wonderful thing! He didn't feature much in any British history I studied.

4:01 pm

sorry I forgot that!!!!

4:02 pm

I take it today's theme is British Prime Ministers?

4:02 pm

yes it is.

4:02 pm

Gladstone and Disraeli took most of the publicity at that time. And yes, Westford, you're right.

4:03 pm

Are you going to Scarborough Fair? Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme Remember me to one who lives there She once was a true love of mine

4:03 pm

I once got an A on an English paper about MacBeth and used a quote from Disraeli not that I can remember what it was

4:04 pm

Hi BabbleRabble. One of my favorite songs.

4:04 pm

oh bab nice song

4:04 pm

the talk of rosemary jarred the cobwebs

that sounds pretty impressive Westford!!!

4:05 pm

my impressive days are over

well, i think mine never really started West!

4:06 pm

you have plenty of time young'un

4:06 pm

Was the Disraeli quote about the play?

4:06 pm

no must have been about his character or lack of it

4:07 pm

the reason for doing a marathon is impressive, redT

4:07 pm

I've been in a class all day, and now have to go teach one...

4:08 pm

Poor Macbeth.

Poor KrisE.

4:09 pm

a very noble goal red

TY for your donationWestford!!! I am up to a little over 600....but I havent really been barnstorming for it.

4:11 pm

It is finely shown in Shakespeare's disclosure of the mind of Macbeth, who speaks of it as his "strange and self-abuse" Disraeli

4:11 pm

5:00 pm

tough crowd...

5:00 pm

5:01 pm

kj - not sure i got it but its closer than where i was i will work it a little more.

5:01 pm

burt's friend minus i

5:01 pm

I really don't know the difference between the "good" broom and the "bad" broom. I just sweep the dirt, not examine the tools!

5:01 pm

it's a bird, MLF

5:01 pm

ty got it

5:02 pm

and that was a good joke, kje

5:02 pm

kje perfect ckue and ty everyone else who clues it

: )

5:02 pm

there is the inside broom and the outside broom.

5:02 pm

clued

5:02 pm

exactly mom!!

5:02 pm

in our house the inside broom is the good broom

5:02 pm

yes, brooms are not good or bad - only the people who misuse the are, Dan

5:02 pm

got it Mom - i was working too hard - thanks.

5:03 pm

*although, will admit, I only have one broom*

5:03 pm

sure thing, Jindigo

5:03 pm

I've been keeping hubby up on the conversation and he said to thank dan for defending him lol

5:03 pm

so you don't sweep outside, KJE?

5:03 pm

yes....

5:04 pm

I use the same broom for inside and outside

5:04 pm

or you have an outside broom and use swiffers inside?

5:04 pm

me too - just can't be that anal - LOL

5:04 pm

anal is my middle name

5:04 pm

inside, I use mostly the vacuum (and I only have wood floors) - but if I need to use the broom inside - it IS a floor afterall...

5:04 pm

besides when the good broom is taken outside it tends to get left out there

5:05 pm

oh, I wasn't raised that way. My mom would have had a fit. I am quite anal that way. We even have a downstairs broom.

5:05 pm

sorry to be a pain with the asking for clues but i want to try to finish this even though i barely started.. ET 6 please

5:05 pm

you have a downstairs broom and an upstairs broom? I'm sorry, mom - but that is cracking me up!

5:05 pm

hi. i'm not anal at all.. wish i were more so... but the outside broom just gets too dirty to use inside

5:06 pm

heck, Mlfan, you aren't a pain

5:06 pm

et - poetic term for forever

5:06 pm

amen Dorens, and hello

5:06 pm

I am not anal at all, and I sweep the floors with a broom or a vacuum when the spirit moves me which is not too often

5:06 pm

what the heck are you sweeping - it is all just dust and dirt...

5:06 pm

3rd TE 6/18 please?

5:06 pm

and cat hair

5:07 pm

not outside. it is leaves and pebbles and who knows what else

5:07 pm

wait - notice how dan starts this and then casually steps away and watches the action - hmmmm

5:07 pm

that too

5:07 pm

inside isn't dirt... or at least not as much.... it is more like crumbs and stuff, yes cat hair, but not dirt and bird poop etc

5:07 pm

yes, I did pick up on that, KJE

hi guys i see you are on a very interesting subject here!! LOL

5:07 pm

te 6 - a number + man's neckwear

5:07 pm

{{Lindrick}} hi

5:07 pm

i'm not hiding, I'm on the phone with a customer

5:07 pm

dan... is he the one who started this? well... it is a fascnating topic so we should thank him

hi mom

5:08 pm

thanks KJE

5:08 pm

Dan - just a trouble maker!

5:08 pm

and babbling while at work. hmmmm

5:08 pm

5:08 pm

thank you Kj!

5:08 pm

Hey Lind!

5:08 pm

5:08 pm

5:08 pm

My family has 2 brooms...one for inside (that gets used outside by my Dad), and 1 for the kitchen (that never gets used cause we bought a swiffer for darth)...so which one is the good one?

Bye dorens

That and Lind you reminded me to grumble at one of my fav writers

who is that herin?

Kelley Armstrong. She has realised her first few books in paper back now the next 2 have been in hardback not paper which is bloody expensive and i have to wait a year for them to come out in paper back

oh i'll have to look her up!

6:10 pm

that's normal in US infer

6:10 pm

books almost never come out in pb first

But its really annoying and unfair that she realised a scad of them in paper then swapped to hard back. I would buy them all in one or the other formate

oh they look good herin i might have to partake!!

They are fantastic but now its a year between books and that makes me sad

6:12 pm

may also be out of her control - publisher - but don't want to ruin your rant

my favourite author has only ever written 4 books!!

or 5 I forget!!

That Lex is true. She may now be mega popular. I can see why she wants to make money. It wont stop me reading them but gar

Lind how is that?

6:13 pm

who???

who is that i mean

Thomas Harris

did the silence of the lambs trilogy & black sunday

6:14 pm

too scary for me!!

my favourite books and movies

I also like Stephen King, John Grisham & Dean Koontz

Ok scary

suspense more than scary really!!

I have tried numerous times to read mr King but no go.

Oh i can buy stuff at cafepress. Here hold my purse

what kind of dr kje? so my b-i-l has become a regular on Oprah. I happen to be a big fan of hers over the past several years (getting predators off the streets, her angel network, yada yada), but now I've become more of a watcher b/c I get to hear the behind the scenes stuff

8:07 pm

min - that's a much better clue than I gave!!

8:07 pm

geriatrician

8:08 pm

8:26 pm

i thought it was a picture of you kje!

8:26 pm

hi jbv, all depends when the time is right !!

8:26 pm

that lady has to be at least 60!!!

8:26 pm

8:28 pm

yes, have seen 30 on heroin - looks almost like that - sad

8:28 pm

Yes, 23 and no signs of marriage on the horizon, so who knows how old I'll be if and when I ever see my grandchild!

10:13 pm

10:14 pm

10:15 pm

10:16 pm

oh, kids. they are so hard to motivate!

10:16 pm

10:16 pm

Lifting weights and push ups (haha), stid.

10:16 pm

what a foreign concept...

10:16 pm

I think I did that once....

10:17 pm

in a former life

10:17 pm

rofl... we could be cellmates together!

10:17 pm

Deal

10:17 pm

Tim started a new workout program and talked me into starting one, too.

10:18 pm

I used to work out. Nowadays I prefer to just work in the garden. Enough lifting, digging, shoveling, sawing and throwing the toy for the dog to give a full workout

10:18 pm

sounds like a good idea, jellen -- are you going to the gym together?

10:18 pm

I've heard a workout buddy can be great for keeping momentum going.

10:19 pm

No. It's a dvd series at home.

10:19 pm

a workout partner is a great way to gitrdon

10:19 pm

more convenient, for sure!

10:19 pm

te4/4 x 2

10:19 pm

any more clues needed? I should lie down again *sigh*

10:20 pm

have = color, and camping,

10:20 pm

So sorry you're under the weather, stid.

10:20 pm

how about the 13-19 group, lexlee?

10:20 pm

and the seabird, of course

10:20 pm

t + double vowel + consonant for two of them.

10:21 pm

I am not too happy either Jellen -- it was a GLORIOUS day and I spent an extra 8 hours in bed because I couldn't stand the light or movement.

10:21 pm

That makes it extra frustrating, doesn't it?

10:22 pm

the seabird is like a "period in school" or a te** paper (te 4/5) only change last consonant

10:22 pm

how did I miss that group stid - I LIVE there

10:22 pm

exactly. Of course, tomorrow and Saturday are supposed to be lovely also, and I only work half the day tomorrow so I may yet have some play time!

10:22 pm

LOL lexlee! I know!

10:23 pm

thought I already did the bird too - think this game sometimes ignores me...should I be surprised??

10:23 pm

We're supposed to have a nice weekend, too. Planning on an outdoor concert Friday and an arts festival Saturday.

10:24 pm

sounds perfect, Jellen!

10:24 pm

tomorrow = HS +Tutor 1st grader+band concert+kid to party...Saturday= 2 soccer games 8 AM and 11 same kid

10:24 pm

11:40 pm

thanks guys! (hugs back)... kind of already knew it, but having it confirmed is hurting

11:40 pm

Mr.P - glad to hear it's not bad news re the breast but must urge you NOT to look stuff up on the internet. When any of us do that we alays fixate on the worst case scenarios. Please try to relax (not easy, I know) and wait to see what the medics have to say. xxx

11:46 pm

11:46 pm

both of the te 7s didnt see that there were two. oops. need both.

11:47 pm

te 7 - insect that eats wood

11:47 pm

ag + 2 vowels, as a British word, once meant, awry or all to one side. However, it's now been influenced by the Indian culture in our country and so the middle consonant is one worth 6 points rather than 3.

11:47 pm

11:47 pm
