There's another pic I should post, where she's looking with concern at her mother, who was old by then
damn.. I don'thave a single 8 yet
nor bless
ruru, I'm not ashamed to say that I used morewords to find the ct8
ct?
jilli, is it a word you would ever use?
ct8/50
what the heck
good idea, can't imagine anyone would ever get that
ct?!!! -- way to go jill
"various comblike or featherlike structures, as the row of stiff bristles on the legs of a psocid." Now you know.
Thank you Jill
oh a poscid.. why didn't you say so
gee, thanks, jill!
lol
if we knew psocid, lol
like you know psocid -- oh, oh...
ty jilli that certainly is an odd one
Liposcelis bostrychophila is the predominant psocid pest of domestic kitchens in the UK
cockroach?
Didn't you all know that?
wow that's quite a mouthful jilli!!

My cat loves me today. She is a great lump of sleeping today

Night Nan
there's a lady here who has 5 cats -- she keeps them in during to day so they won't hunt birds, and only lets them out at night.
the day
ruby is a calico once she got a bat
Jill that is stupid if i had five cats i would have a run
just found 5 more -- but I wonder what's wrong with sennite?
West wouldn't that concern you that the bat had rabies?
herin, this is a very safe area, wide open spaces, very little traffic
I never thought of that herin the cats have had their rabies shots though and boosters
ok
I was just so surprised when she showed up at the door with it
she just plays with the squirrels
snicker Plays with squirrels?
whee, got the la8
only 4 more 8s to go *weep*
she chases them and they taunt her but she never catches them
i have 4 too
gj jilli Ihave one
That G is bugging the heck out of me
G what herin?
oh ga8?
there is no GA 8
there is no ga8
looked at the closest letter to the g figured it must be a
now I see the r

Hi Mel - did you find yr last di5.14?
I am back and forth from the grid to stove making a big picnic lunch to take the ladies to the park tommorow
no I gave up lol
got a through c words done though!
I am sure they will enjoy the day! esp with yr great food. that word is probably an old fashioned way of saying 'do' past tense
hmm does it start with the same three letters as the word before it?
ah ha got it
thank you
no...i do it, I di* it and then extend
yw
right got to dash, at least made a start on the grid, hope to bbl, Happy Babbling everyone:)
bye jean =)
bye (oops) Je4.9
oops LOL
tc
lol
I will go to the PB I have a choc cake cooling I think I might have a piece, rofl
right gone
nothing like warm cake to make brain cells happy
esp warm chocolate cake
its all stuck to the papers I made cupcakes, lol I am making a mess
I want to go with mel rather than work!!
hi Katie, taste buds atingle?
The ladies are so excited I had a hard time getting them to settle down tonight. We walked to the bread thrift store and bought a huge bag of day old bread to feed the ducks, it is going to be a fun but exhausting day
its those little things
I'm doing great on 4 letter words, pity about the rest
the 8s are well hidden
meaning they are obscure words or twisted in the grid?
just can't see them
hi lynxx. would you have the de 8/55? I've been monkeytyping, but 8 letters offers too many combinations.
hi Mayne - sorry I only have the ct8
ok I'll just keep typing.
c+number before 11 +3rd vowel + some people will draw a ***gram to show you what they are demonstrating
I am working in the DE 8 as well
morning all
morning sprite
morning Sprite
goodmorning Sprite
that ct is not a word
thanks for the clue, btw
I cheated I used more words to find it
that is not cheating, mel, that is research. Cheating is looking up the actual words ;) That is what Ata told me, longgggg ago when I started playing.
I did?!
you did
lol hiyas Ata
ooo go me :)
I give up on the DE 8 for awhile
de 8/55 de + **e cream + 1st ti 5/12 (minus the t)
someone had given a def for a word, and some of us looked it up on google, and I asked if that was considered cheating or not. And you spoke (well, wrote) the famous words: "Looking up the actual words is cheating. All the rest.... is research."
gosh i'm clever sometimes!
nice one - TY Mayne
def of ct: n.) Zoology A comblike structure, such as the respiratory apparatus of a mollusk or a row of spines in some insects.
thank you Mayne
ah ofcourse, the apparatus of a mollusk. I should have known.
you are, Ata
and after that de we all look for the word where you kill yourself
everyday words are just so hard to see lol
lol lyn, and not having the U is good? Or bad?
hahahaha Lynyx
lol nDan
well it might have been one of the 5 8s I am still missing
Greetings everyone!
hi Lorrie
morning Lorrie
argh the TI words are just as bad as the DI words
*dances happily and blissfully unaware of all the traps through today's grid*
actually I take that back the ti words are easier
anybody else having fun too? :)
I was until I hit the 200 mark now I am just grinding along, lol
missing the 'ing' from yesterday but otherwise the words are still flowing
ti s have several eye & ear maladies, tree decor, neatness, wave, fork, can, worn out & words using a mental state
yeah I few through the ti's they just look daunting at first
yay, some good news, lol. Sounded like you all hated the grid ;)
254, yea! G'd morning Babblers! How's this mini beast?
hiya Lori, so far it is fun, except for one real unword.
Hi Lori, get your coffee and settle in
wd
This is all very encouraging, - the one unreal, real word.... :-)
that one is 8 letters long and starts ct, Lori... need I say more?
Yowsa. 'Nuff said there.....
thought so
actually, I love those kind of words. Before Babble I did not even know they existed. Seriously. I knew of mn words. But pt? ct? crw? Babble enriched my life. Or at least my sense of language :)
Yah yah, enriched, that's how I feel about English ...... :p
I agree, feeling enriched by things like this is a talent not everybody has... :P
yay got the ri word and good ri****** to it!
wtg mel
TY Mel - so easy to see when you clue it
34 to go
I kept thinking it needed the C then finally saw it plain as day
one of those finds that gives you a kick, right?
c as the 3rd letter that is trying to go by the words before and after is
yeah put a grin on my face
la 8 is stoopid. Yea for melia!
lol yeah compund word
just because it lose an L, no reason to pick on it
lose = lost
lol Lynx. 'Yer on this morn.
BBS
There are too many a's in this grid.
grrr I hate it when I am searching for a word and overlook one because to me it is a proper noun, I should know by now to enter them anyway, talking about the er 5/12
that one is a heath Mel - TY
thanks mel

painfull:/
weird... no trees close to foundation that maybe got too big for their or your own good?
I'm not here for *real*. Will be heading out in a bit and not back until late evening, so trying to knock out this 254 in a hurry. Just thought I should use timing to my advantage!

I want a nice quiet beach
I also want this grid to be smaller :( A bit.
cuba? sorry i dont want to be drafted into some freedom liberation army of the peoples republic:/
im not going do this grid, to big and im going to the park, no time. Have a lovely day babblers and take care!!!
Neither can I anike
We all have our dream spots for relaxation and recreation.
~~~~~ byebye pink~~~~~
I'd like someone to hear me when I say I am panicking, but not all wishes can be filled.
Bye Pink
i wish was WAY smaller...but maybe will get a chance to pluck away at it from work
neither can I even with the clue below
de8 - someone who wants to end life is su*****; so want to end a god is de8
there..am with icon theme now
*Refusing to be drawn into stereotype war!* Many of my family members go there annually and say it is gorgeous. I'd like to see.
why are you panicking sprite?
zigzags top r to bot l
i have a wall hanging that says "DON,T PANIC!" in large friendly blue letters;)
Aw, (Sprite)--talk back to that Worry Voice. Tell it to go away. Challenge it. Break down its weak defenses.
Hugs Sprite
Was this in the car, Sprite? Or now. If now, we hear!
had to drive in a huge, strange car to bring hubby to canoe club. Must do it again to pick up daughter later on today. Doesn't go well with the panic things here.
I have been in close proximity to one of my biggest "stressors" for the past few days. Worry/stress stink. And are wearing down immune systems, heh.
I have a book like that, cross
Doont get the DE 8
oh... see.. i refer driving BIGGER cars/ trucks..etc....1, can see better..2, everyone can see ou..and 3..should anyone hit you..you're bigger...heavier..and more likely to come unscathed
Hitch-hikers guide....grab your towel, don't panic and 42!
exactly, Uniquity. I am dead beat for just a simple 50 minute's drive.
lol sprite.dont forget your towel
lol
yeah, great, but not if the car is not mine and is difficult to steer.
50 minutes is some time. To get through it in one mental piece, you are a champion!
I always know where my towel is
{{hugs}} to sprite...
herin, you have to add another vowel after the de
I have implemented a towel back-up system. Just in case the first one fails.
herin, if one were to have tendencies to kill a god he/she would be de******. think greek [or latin]
i never worry bout strange cars or trucks,i generally find that if you can get the nose pointed in the general direction in which you wish to travel,that the resy will usually follow right after
I finally got de8--whoa, I need breakfast now. I shall return this afternoon after work. Enjoy the day all. Sprite--you can and will do it. You are in charge. Stay in control of your breathing and thoughts!
this champion is crying like mad, shaking as something very shaky (cannot think of a thing) and feeling like hell.

ok that makes no sense maybe i should not do this. Don't worry im just not working right
Yahoo Anike. OK, I must do one of those *POOF* things now.
Take care Scrabs!
And Sprite, as long as you have enoughtime to build up a bit of strength before the second round, I am sure you will be fine. Not right afterward, per se, but tomorrow,maybe.
(Great clue, thanks. I forgot about the gods).
Later Scrabbler
thanks Scrabbler and Uniquity. Am trying.
im on my sixth life as of this point in my life so i dont worry bout anything;) might go to mexico and try cliff diving:))
Upside down carnival rides freak me out. My fear is not of heights, but of falling from them, so being upside down stinks. Getting better though.
sprite, what's wrong?
in this life I have a serious neurological syndrome that makes not worrying impossible, cross. So yes, I panic. Severely. About little things. And I hate it.
hey Feather
hi there feather
**Sprite**
sprite, is their medicine for it?
morning all. sorry, just saw sprite's messages and was concerned, forgot to say hi!
hi feather. Panic attack.
oh dear. is it subsiding yet?
Hugs Sprite
bichon: no. They have finally figured out how it works. Now they are researching if there can be anything done about it and if so, if medication is possible.
a little now, feather, thanks :) I definitely needed some babble buddies to help find myself back.
oh good, hopefully you're on the downhill swing of it now. do you have a bag of tricks of things you do to help yourself?
my son works for a biotech company. I'll set them working on it
ok..time for shower... and get ready for work..might be back..sprite..take care dear... I'm not well versed in panic attacks... so have not said much... but.. I hope all works out well...and in a few days will just be a bad memory...
feet on the floor, breathing, and if possible somebody to talk to to keep me from disappearing into the panic.
thanks carlee, enjoy the shower
well ladies,time for me to hose down this mass of muscle and get ready for work:) you all have a good day
I will read you some Vogon poetry later, cross
( when I do get upset..or freaked out... I watch a really dorky bollywood movie... works for me... )
bichon: wonderful :)

I have that one
HI Babble
Hello, herein
Good day, all. Hello, Lady, hillary, tijani and BabbleRabble-rouser... good to see you all again.
Hi Scarlet
Hello, Scarlet
en8/50 please
How are you Scarlet?
morning all... br, it's been a while, how've you been?
Hello, Do!
Hi Dorens
all well scarlet? hi infer
I am well, Lady... thank you for asking. We are in good shape now. How are you and the bf, the kittie and life in general?
Yes, Do, thank you. How is your life now?
BR-r, how are you now?
B.f is asleep. I am about to bed it kitty is skulking about as i huged her
my life is lovely. an old beau who didn't work out three years ago seems to be working much better these days. makes a big difference. but he won't come between me and babble, i've made that clear to him
Wow, Do... that's an interesting turn of events! :-)
quite interesting, particularly since he married (which is what he needed to do to someone) a much younger woman, then movedinto my neighborhood (which, in fairness he lived in for a long time before that) and i had to pass his house every day and think about the fact that maybe i did miss him
glad its working
So the "maybe" turned into a reality and you reconnected... that's fodder for a screenplay... LOL
not a surprise that that marriage failed, and he turned up on my doorstep
Some puppies have to go where the kindness was...
well, so far it is. we shall see. i am sort of past the age of stars in my eyes, but he is a terrific man and i certainly appreciate him more now, and might be more open to possibilities
good
The women of a certain age thing is probably the greatest gift of maturity, Do... friendship is a rocky road even in the best of circumstances... and you two have already been through a "feet to the fire" situation... best wishes.
thanks. will keep you informed
Muchas gracias, NJ friend...
hello all
help with la8 and de8 please
Hello peri-friend

You're welcome!

I would not have found it without some good clueing earlier, peri. I never heard of it... and never considered killing a god...
well I am stuck with 125 left
think I will sit outside for a bit, bbs
Dorens kick his butt if he doesn't behave
The C words that showed up a few days ago had me a little snarky...
oh he is a perfect gentleman herin... very oldworldly, don't know any one with better manners or more courtesy
See you later, peri.
How lovely for you, Do... such gentlemanly attributes are sorely missing in society these days...
good Dorens.
later Peri
Hi Scarlet. how are you?
Good day, all
hi red and art
RED!! Good to see you. All is well in chez Rhett... LOL... how about you? Still running? Still finding your way through the new job?
Hi, artlady!
Hi Art lady.
Yes, 7 miles this morning. Job is like old now. so pretty much nothing new... :)
WOW Well done red
Glad you're doing okay then, red. How long is your contract on this job?
red where in fla are you? i'm going to hutchinson island in august
One of my friends rock. He made my night.
I extended till October...
I'm outside of Orlando, not sure where hutchinson island is!
Nice for you then, red... you love th heat~
Why, Lady?
I do love the heat....I want to extend through the winter, but, they have just fired the manager, so we shall see what decisions they make.
Politics! Bleah...
Yes, I just do a lot of smiling!
I was explaining to him that one of the girls i went to school with and was really mean to me (calle dme fat and ugly ) i found her on facebook. I showed him the pic and he went 'arggh she looks old enough to be someones mum and shes fat to'
:-)
Dorens? Will you stop by Orlando?
no... flying into west palm with my friend who has condo in hutchinson island. maybe crazy to go to fla in august, eh?
you all must love not just heat, but humidity!
Well, it will be hot, but to be honest Dorens, its only in the 80-90's. Humidity is high.
It's sort of tropical. I think you'll still enjoy it.
actually that is ow it was here most of the last week, so no big diff. i just know that i appreciate it more in, let's say, february!
good morning, everyone -
Hi, JBV!
morning jbv
this could be true, but I actually have the air off and the door open today trying to get warm.
good morning, jbv
Hi JBV how are you???
Red you staying longer i read? You every going to go home?
hi, red - very good here - I'm on vacation! so I'm not rushing around trying to finish the puzzle before work - much more relaxed -
I have to go home in August to get the License plate tags. i dunno what I am going to do.
oooh, Vacation! I want one.
oh
I need ot go to the docs and get my brain tweeked and i am wondering if there is a test to determine what anti depressants to use
It's more a question of what symptoms you have lady, and determining what medication will best suit your chemistry.
with my husband it's been trial and error, unfortunately.
mmmfph i don't want trial and error
pardon my random thoughts
I think it's that way with anyone who needs balance through chemistry, artlady.
He's an unusual case, I think. I know other people who've been very fortunate in finding the right meds easily.
WOOHOOOOOO!!!!
KATTIKINS!! @@@ Woot! Woot! Woot!
herin, you have to do trial and error, unfortunately
You got firewords?
Wow, what energy!
how r u hun..was going to mail u later...
Hi Ata. I know i know mmmph
Oh, art... so many friends have had to go through years of off-again, on-again trials...
Please do, kattie... we are doing so much better now. How about thee and the gang?
Well, it's been 15 years of this...as I said, he's an unusual case!
i am working like MADNESS

Art been mental since 6
and today is missie's 12th b-day
I spent about 4 years before finding something that worked. I think thats about normal
Oh, gosh, art... that is a very long time. It must be awful for your hubby's soul.

Well, please extend birthday wishes to your darling, kattie.

Taylor driving soon? Wow... now the worrying really starts... LOL

Haven't felt like talkin
Haven't felt like talking
DR, I thought the log should be rated PG at least. So far it's just been a barrage of corsets and alcohol.
Timing.

Hello, Haz. How are you and the family/husband/Spanglettina?

Hello Scarlet - we're all very well, thanks.

Eva

yes?
well the exercise will be good for you too, right?
sure will, dorens! itll give me lots of extra steps on my pedometer, since they gave us one of those too!
Also this lass has a way of saying 'How rude are you' in such a tone that it sounds like cusses a sailor would blush
cant say ive got that...
EvaN - cautionary tale in the paper today - a lady who was advised to drink loads of water and reduce salt intake ended up quite ill because of electrolyte imbalance.
very ill! brain damaged!
True - not quite ill, very ill.
good to know, haz. this calculation was at least done by medical professionals, but im not gonna drink it all if makes me feel bad...
oh be careful eva!
I read the article and thought of you, EvaN....
Eva is that you in the black red wench outfit?
Ursula Arens, a dietician, said that there was a difference between normal consumption of one or two litres a day, not just in the form of water, but also from coffee, tea, and juice, and constant, ritualistic consumption of water throughout the day. "You shouldn't be drinking massively over and above what you feel with comfortable with, when you're not thirsty, in a mechanical way."
i passed my physical with flying colors + the program is run my medical people...so hopefully they all know what theyre talking about! but i wouldnt push myself to participate if i thought it was making me feel ill....

herin, yes, thats me
phwar
is that a good noise, herin?
sounded rather fart like to me :P
I think it's an Aussie version of "phwoar", myself. You ladies are making me into the most unfaithful boyfriend. Ever.
YEs that is a good thing and yes i miss typed it
good morning all hows the grid?
Hi Lynn
not too bad lynn
hi her
good morning everyone
i cant wait until she finishes editing the other pictures -- there were a lot of fun props + poses...
morning flosey
Hi Flossey
Nice Eva
la6/24 please?
past tense of the word above lyn
Actually, one cannot but notice that quite a few of you ladies are flaunting some rather tasty icons. Is the theme 'ladies in lace', or something?!
ty dorens
Nancy Peticoat day
It's petticoats, Nancy.
OH also Nancy if you love all things goth and shiny. Amazon have awesome stuff. Specially Demonia boots
Ohhh, I see. So there's all of you impeccably dressed, while I'm sitting here in a nightshirt, trying to wake up. You all look lovely :D
strange coincidence - I haven't worn or thought of petticoats in ages, but last night I had a dream that I was wearing a see-through blouse and was searching through my closet to find a slip to wear under it -
la 8/50 please/
I am in my pjs if that helps?
Shiny, Herin? The more colours the better at the moment! Having said that, I haven't worn my own clothes in three days.
snicker Nancy. Shiny stuff all things i like
Glad to hear it, Herin! We can make a scene together, though I'm not sure if wearing a big shirt on loan from the love interest can quite qualify even as pyjamas...
lynn it sounds a lot like an overhwelming victory in an election
la8/50 - compound word.
ty haz
hello
Hi
????????????? grrrrr sorry not getting the clues
hi ja**
how can there be 254 words in this grid
Meh Nancy its too cold here at the moment not to wear pjs and have the heating on 30 and now i am thinking epps i have to buy b.f birthday present
gonna be a hot day here today -- was already 78F when i left for the bus this morning at 6:45am!
its sitting at 4c at the moment
good morning all!
la8/50 - combine not the sea but ? with something that a di4/6 has six of.
Hello all - back for 113 - eek
Lynn, it's like when the ground goes downhill...leave out the second stick letter
Hi everyone i missed
ty
oh heck i have just had random thought overload.
4 degrees, Herin? :O I can't even imagine temperatures that cold atm. I spent the night absolutely roasting hot, thanks to the love interest being a snuggler. Every time I tried to wriggle towards some cool sheets, there was a possessive hand around my waist!
Nice Nancy. Very sweet
I wish we had more rain then i could deal with the cold
Well, it's lovely here this day. I'm off to have my coffee on the deck. back for the rest later. Ciao for now!
i'm out now too... later
hello everyone!
gm!
Nice Art have a lovely day you too dorens
hi missb!
hey Ata!
Hi beeze
bigger grid today - getting closer to those 500s!
herin gm to you!
I've never seen a 500 here!
Sweet at first, Herin. Unfortunately, he's stronger than me! And if it's rain you want, then we got buckets to share.
there are tales of them phae!
Ata can attest!
But its summer at your end
Summer it may be, but the weather has not fully caught on =/
there was a 546
Ahh! Tales...which gives you the choice to believe or disbelieve! :)
ac 7/32 please?
we've had a few
Herin...Did any one finish it?
ac7/32 - put Mr Gore on the end of the preceding ac5/12
true however i don't think Ata would tell a false tale of 500 word grids! i feel confident about this
ty
Um i don't think i did Phaeton
lots did
Thousands.
at least thousands
even spangle finished
I wouldn't have enough time to finish one that big...over 300 is a struggle
missed your entrance! hi beeze!
Spangle laughed at the challenge.
Woot i just found a dairy free "Vice Cream ' book at amazon. mmmm
the thing with those huge grids is that there are usually tons of prefixes + suffixes, and LOTS of small words.... so once you find one word, youve really found like 15 becuse of all the possibilities...
hey Sean! you are in the grid today!
she finished before her walk, even
haha, so i am!
je 6/33 ?
535 words 8698 09 Jul
could I have a clue for an7 please?
too bad i'm not a word :(
an7 - very very old
i know!
as old as Haz even
thanks Haz
I'm even older than an7. 1558 tells its own story.
Ata is that your dog blowing a raspberry to the camera?
how far along, beeze?
je 6/33 please?
question for the long-time babblers - has anyone ever tried to have babble grids archived so we can go back when we need more than a daily dose
yep!
not to my knowledge
JBV too much information to be stored thus no back listed
morning, all!
Great pic Ata. Hi Une
i want to say the idea had been brought up, but im not sure why it hasnt happened...
I've resisted that temptation, JBV, on the grounds that my husband might kill me. He has too many methods available not to be careful.
maybe ask Dr God!
hello all
hey, peri :-)
hi peri
look what he threatened to do to spangle!
was thinking of mopping my kitchen floor, but changed my mind :-)
hey peri!
I know. The pair of us live in fear every day, Ata.
you should escape to Panama
I'd have to commit fraud first.
jbv- the puzzles are archived
hello everyone
you could go without committing fraud, then you would't get put into prisons when you come back in a canoe
really? where?
njb - where?
But who would want to go to Panama unless you had to?
under the archives link above here
good morning all :)
click on archives right above your chatterbox
Ohoho, my company just stirred and he wants a cuppa and a kiss. Nice to see you all again! x
You can do the puzzles on pen and paper but not in grid form like Iron SUdoku
I thought only chat logs were archived
someone who liked ships?
there are archives of the actual grids, but i dont think they are play-able
the old puzzles are archived but you cannot play them again
it has the puzzles by day, year etc.
hi and bye Nancy Boy
you can print them and do them yourself, tho
How long before they make a film out of the story, Ata?
Oh, never thought of that nbj
its not like Iron Sudoku where if you miss a puzzle you can go back + complete it another day
crazy they were right there all along and not many knew! thats great info!
ooo not long. it's an amazing story. did you see on the news his big mindmap plan thing showing how they were going to plan everything?
if youre a person who cares about points/rankings, the babble archives arent much help. but if you just like to play for fun or see the old grids, theyre quite useful. :)
i like that aspect of it. if i miss it oh well....
what story are you talking about?
No, I didn't. If the whole thing was so well planned, why did they let themselves be photographed?
I don't think either were exactly masterminds ...
Later Nancy don't be a stanger
harpjane - it's the story of the canoeist who went missing, presumed dead for five years. He turned up, claiming to have amnesia, but the police uncovered a fraud.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/749 6315.stm
where can we read of his story? that sounds interesting
oh - thanks Ata!
yeah, sounds suspicious, doesn't it?
The man and his wife had been on the verge of bankruptcy - he was worth more dead than alive, so they pretended he was dead. Their sons believed he was dead and testified against them in court.
so now he's alive and going to jail?
i cannot believe they deceived their sons? weirdo
the Master Plan: http://www1.sky.com/news/Canoe.pdf
he had a trap door in his house - lol!
Yes - he admitted his part inthe fraud, she said she had been forced into it, but she was found guilty today. They are to be sentenced later.
nigt
6 years each
Oh - didn't realise they had been sentenced already.
yep, just a bit ago
I feel slightly sorry for her, but only slightly. How could you do that to your family?
greed and desperation can drive humans to do weird things
I don't. I feel more sorry for him having her as his wife!
I know, but to keep it going for so long.
Why so, Ata?
I can't imagine being that isolated from the community, what would be the point of living?
i don't feel sorry either - they both did it - they made the choice
she just seems ... much more calculated than him
good morning all. i've been following this trial story. debt can make people do desperate things.
was it her idea?
i saw a documentary about credit card debt. people actually killed themselves over their debt.
joint idea, apparently
people kill themselves over the oddest things...
credit card debt can be like usury--almost impossible to get out of
The papers will be free to publish all sorts of details now so we'll maybe get to the heart of it.
right, and the debt collectors threaten you with horrible things
Well, they've got six years free bed and board to look forward to.
je6?
rnice -- i LOVE your kermit!
she actually got 3 months longer than him. think she got 6 1/2 and he got 6 1/4
thanks eva
bernice* that was supposed to say...
She should have admitted her guilt.
je 6: beginning of female donkey + what you catch butterflies with
je6 - run together shortened Miss Aniston and the means of landing a fish.
absolutely
Hi again all, an interesting grid, it just keeps giving and giving and giving...of course I only have 107 right now...
good clue, thanks!
hi red
You're welcome, harp.
the first 99 seems almost TOO easy...
Afternoon all What is the verdict on todays yellow and green maze?
depends on which 99 you get harp!
Good afternoon, FMitch. It's okay (ish).
there's a grid? we're discussing moving to panama
well, i assume i got the EASIEST 99!
not too bad, FMitch, the first half went by all right, now I'm finding out there are actually words that begin with ct!!!
the first half is fun mitch, dk about the rest yet
Yes, Panama and before that EvaN's pics.
OOooh, I have been to Panama, and I loved it, its not expensive and has a fairly good infrastructure...
what are the stats for the CT words??
yeesh... i don't know if i'll have the stamina for this grid
well don't forget your hat then Ata (groan) words beginning with ct? Oh my!
ct 8/50 - would not have got it without MoreWords
ct8/50 -
nice sciencey word :)
oops
ata to the PB
can someone clue it for me?
I would, but I'm in the PB
Ata, its ok to clue from PB...
you can clue from the PB!
I'm too busy sulking :p
*shuts eyes and dives in*
c, plus a number after ni4/4, a vowel, then the beginning of what Pepys wrote.
c + number after nine + not ego, but ** + two vowels, sorry that's the best I can do right now
thanks helpful, thanks. looking...
not really, but I knew Haz would do it better!
oops, I must be in the PB, then, too! sorry!
got it
lol, didn't even notice jbv
Wow. Thanks all...
every time someone types a grid word in the chat, an angel gets his wings
You see? We laugh at ct8 words.
are there more ct words than that?
Somebody take Bernice's temperature.
yes, at least 27
No, just one burst of ct laughter today.
don't worry, it's a healthy 104
de8?
ATa, you are insa4...
OK, must prepare an exciting lunch.
luckily!
Nothing new there then!
de 8 - if you were bent on killing gods, you would be a de****** maniac
exactly
de8/55 - most often clued today as de, plus the ending given to describe one who wants to end their own life su******. (Mr Gore gets a look in)
wow, that's a really good word.
what a fab word
JBV, I think you were asking about the archives earlier? I asked Dr_G a while ago and he said No cos it would be too much of a redesign and rebuild.
thanks
clue for the ri8 please
ok, thanks, FMitch - I thought of it last week when I had to miss a few days (unplugged vacation at the shore) and would have like to catch up
good ri8
ri8 - exclamation given when you're glad to see the back of something or someone.
great clue as always, thanks Haz
Some day, when our archivist gets to work, the chat log archives will be essential.
You're welcome, peri.
clue for the en8 please
for some reason i'm not getting that de 8 killing yourself thing
just got it
lol
kep't forgetting the first "I"
en8/50 - puts the almost frozen water ending to en6/21. It looks like en plus what you do to bread, minus sprite's favourite letter at the front.
ooo didn't know you could stick that on that
good god
i am too stupid for that explanation
the first de5?
you lost me on that clue, Haz
don't know sprite's favorite letter
2nd ai 5/12?
en6 - en plus a misspelling of a necessity, what you might require. for en8 add two thirds of frozen water.
Her least favourite letter is K.
wow you completely lost me haz
de 5/12 - take the oxygen out
Haz, your clues are super as usual; I have five words already and haven't even started hunting yet!
Thank you hetty!
thanks haz. i was working with the wrong EN 6/21
thanks Haz, got it now
ai 5/12 - same oxygen + past tense ending
thanks
only 99 words left to find
The second ai5/12 uses the same letters as the first. A past tense.
taking a break, bbl
ty
the first di6/7 set?
hi all, and my phantom words so far: sardine, radiate, laddie, jade, arid, enatic, antic, acadia, deice, deride, ETC
hi all!
Already I can see that lots of missing words will be due to missed endings, sigh.
di6 - di plus alkaline's opposite and plural.
Hello TO!
shall i even begin this one? hard or just an endurence test?
sorry endurance
thanks, that gave me an ac4 also!
so far not too bad to, i'm half way
Lots of normal words, some a bit twisty.
TO, i'd say hard
Hi TO
bb later
oh finally, madame silverclaw has graced her basket with her presence. I had my fan on till just now, and she does Not like havign her fur blown around. So she's been sitting in the hallway glaring at me
See you TO.
lol - Ata!
very discriminating Madame silverclaw!
she is. she's a brat
Ha, just found the ad6/27 that does not describe babblers 'cos we can stop any time!
Any time we like.
i got a hummingbird feeder and put it near my cat's window as i will be on vacation next week and thought she may need extra entertainment - poor things she is harassing them - charging the window when they approach
anyone have the ac 7 they will clue me?
awwwww
i know - they are learning that she can't get them though - so they are getting braver!
ac 5 prior + type of beer **e
ac 7: add mr gore to the ac 5/12
I would just like to say I am not so fond of the spinach today. Now I am done.
the ac 5 tha tmeans pimples?
down to 70 -- taking a break
no sharon
I would like to say, when in doubt, mumble
ac 5 after that
well then i don't have that one either. I think maybe i'm in the wrong frame of mind currently to babble
Morning everyone. I'm back because I didn't quite feel inadequate enough yesterday. ;)
I would like to say that I'm taking a walk with Spangle. Have fun!
Bye Haz, have fun.
have fun!
Bye!
lol wick
ac
good morning babblers
I'm going to the V&A tomorrow :D
Hi Josh.
I'm sort of jealous Ata but not in the heat
Ok, whats V and A?
it's a big museum in london
could I have a clue for the first di6/27 please?
oooh Victoria and Albert.
right?
yep!
I've read about it, never really been to London or really anything in the UK, except heathrow.
Should be quite fun.
its a fab museum, covers everything decorative, from pottery to costumes to everything really!
sounds interesting Ata
Research Ata or just fun?
For some reason I always hear aboutt he doll collection, and I am not that into dolls....
i've been to the v&a, very nice museum
i used to live 3 blocks from the museum of london
both, really. I want to see their new Islamic rooms, but I'm also going to the Library there and looking at some pretty knotty books
but now Joshua, you live in Raleigh?
that is correct
My home base is Chapel Hill, though I suppose I am rarely there.
I like the triangle.
di 6/27...di + ac 4/6
it's a nice, if somewhat sleepy, area
thanks kim
yw
I suppose. I am such a non go-outer, it never really bothered me.
Of course i have not been home since April.
there are some nice things to do, but mainly it's just not quite as cool as significantly larger metropolitan areas
where have you been all this time?
I'm a contracter, so currently I'm in Florida. nice and hot, but then again so is triangle now.
though i've been to some nice towns in florida, i can't say i'm a fan in general
I actually love it, I thought I wouldn't but, I live in Clermont, and train at the National Training Center so there are significantly more young people...than most of Fl... it is a little ticky tacky.
where is clermont?
near Orlando.
We have hills, thats our claim to fame in Florida. Hills and Damu trains at the NTC, running the hurdles in Bejing.
the first 100 words are easy to find - took me about 15 minutes
nice - and as you know there are lots of olympians training in raleigh, though less these days after marion jones fell off her pedestal
morning... I couldn't hold back just had to chime in about Florida... that's where I'm from
Hi Katryn!
hello, back for a few more
hey red...
Therre are several Olympians in Raliegh, I remember when that all went down....
you have hills???
I never had hills... beach but no hills - from Miami
does an 7/32 build on the word before it?
we have hills, actually...surprised me too....each day that i run they surprise me...
no beach.
you can almost get "gaydar" on this grid...
how far are you from the cost?
i dont know babs....i have a seven...
maybe an hour to tampa?
close to cocia beach....
i saw the gaydar shadow too Sean
cocoa i mean.
probably wouldn't take it, though, bleu :)
hey its in webster's
babs, an 7 is a synonym for very, very old, like greek ruins
is it? that's surprising! well... maybe not. didn't they add w00t last year?
1 hour that's not bad.. and the gulf side is nice I was back and up near Apalachicola (St George Island) last year. (further north) Even with the heat, I miss it
thanks, JBV, I'll work the brain cells!
thanx jbv...needed that one
hello all
there are a whole lot of names in this grid too, i'm noticing
i noticed that too Sean - lots of proper names :)
sadie, nadine, candice...
katryn, haven't heard that word in years (Apalichicola) - my father used to love to say that (he was stationed near there during the 40s - and as someone who learned English as a second language, he loved to play around with words (maybe the nut did not fall far from that tree)
its the oyster capitol!
scratch candice... add janice
my hubby & kids like 'em too... the kids especially like "ichetucknee" river - especially since they got to float it while we were there
beeze, i think because i've been working 6 days a week, my brain has been shut off more than usual lately... i'm finding all these grids lately to be more difficult than usual... i need a vacation like you
there are a lot of names in this one - and i've tried everyone!
clues for the 8s plz
i couldn't work 6 days a week unless i had to of course! and i def need a vacation!
i've tried them all too
in 8... to point to, to mean
yes, i have no choice right now
not until we hire someone else to cover the shifts
brb
what type of ins do you work in auto, life, medical?
de 8....de + when you want to off yourself you're su******
Oooh sorry I disappeared. I have to go to Winter Park now....It has been great chatting with all...and personally I find Loxtahatchee to be hysterical....
Have a great day everyone, will see you later.
bye red... be safe
gm babblers!
mostly auto and home/tenants, beeze... need a different license for life and yet another for health...
hello everyone..how's the grid today
love those florida place names!
yes you do! i used to be licensed in TX for auto - i was an office manager for Allstate for 4 yrs - through college
what state are you in Sean? My hubby is an independent insurance rep in IN.
ohio, volley
hi neighbor!
that's what i do now, beeze :) got promoted a year ago
indeed, volley. i drive through your state twice a year on the way to missouri too
driving through indianapolis always takes forever!
I also work in Insurance - Prop/Casualty for Non-Profit Commercial Lines
In CA
do you work for Allstate?
we are in the northern part of state; in county with over 100 lakes; it's really beautiful here. That's no lie! We have family in Indy and live about 2 1/2 hours north of Indy. 69 and 465 can be awful.
no, beeze. Nationwide
we're always on 70, volley
hubby started with Farm Bureau; was there for about 16 or 17 years; then went to an independent agency.
oh - okay
straight from columbus, right through indy
yes, i'm in an independent agency as well. we sell mostly nationwide, but i don't really work for them
makes sense. Indy is a great place (other than the traffic); so much to do.
100 lakes in one county?! you must get on the water a lot
despite how many times i've traveled through indy, i've never really done anything there
we used to spend a good deal of time on the lakes; now live on the Tippecanoe River so enjoy seeing it, but not actually skiing, etc.
Sometime you'll have to schedule a stop in Indy; go to Murat Theatre; stay downtown; eat at one of the great restaurants.
at least you have a lot more nature around you... that's something i would definitely like. i love the city, but sometimes i get tired of it
sounds like a road trip to me, volley
I bet. Just this summer we have seen in our back yard: blue herons; an oppossum; a raccoon; a mama dear with two does; groundhog; lots of birds... we really do enjoy the wildlife
lol ... sounds like wild kingdom
i've seen lots of bugs... and a few rabbits... the occasional squirrel... haha, not the most interesting wildlife here... oh, i did see a whole family of raccoons late one night
what part of Ohio? we have friends around Akron and in Cincinnati
we had a porcupine amble through our yard
been to both several times... i'm right in the middle in columbus
Good afternoon all.........
hi cait
hi cait
Afternoon cait :)

how would you even pronounce a word that starts with ct?
sorry, the first di4
is it one of those pregnant back-of-the-mouth sounds like x?

thanks peri, i didn't have that one
any clue for the de5/12, the 1st one please?

if people started chatting/clueing more i'd have shushed ;)
boring to others, that is, not us
ah, well, i just figured i would go on finding words for awhile.

great clue
Oh yeah, I knew that one...
psocid is a great word!
*proudly hauls out psocid diagram from first grade...*
de8..... someone who wants to end it all is su******; de8 is someone wanting to end it all for a god
what is a psocid, atalante? some sort of shrimp?
thanks, dan
nDan! that is a silly clue! (but it worked)
DS 7 please
DA7 that is
booklice!
Afternoon, all. Hey, I went to first grade and I have no idea what a psocid is. Let alone a ct8-a-ma-jigger.
DS7???? what is with this grid?
whew.
a psocid is a book-louse (we went throughthis at fliptime)
hey judi!
da7 is fancier
more neat-o
no! really? *checks books for lice*
a more foppish fellow is a candy rhymer who is da7
Now my head is going to crawl...thanks guys!
only if you have your head in a lousy book, art!
Well, I try to avoid those, it's true...
Like one of Dan brown's?

na6?
oh yes, art -- lots of them, starting with the first di6/27
dan gave a good clue to that before 4...can't remember it, tho
nDan's clue for that de 8 went something like a person who believes in god but wants to kill himself? start like the de 5/12 that comes after and end like sui*****
harpjane, sort of adverbize the na 7
di + sulfuric ****
ends with the last two letters of frozen water
well, then could you clue the na7? lol
ty art
na 7 is "meaner"
*working on the de8...(slowly)*

it rhymes with your nickname, st****...maybe spelled wrong, tho
hm. *thinking*
here's a little di*** 'bout jack and diane!
oh! got it!!!!
ends in two vowels, jill.
hello
Ds are DONE!!!! down to 43 and will do one chapter in my math book before finishing. my arm feels so much better today that I can type all I like! :-D
hey TO!
di + what happens at the end of a life
hi TO!
two american kids doin the best they can...
what happened to your arm, stid?
long story jill... did you know that my hip slipped out of the socket two days after we left your place?
and then I still had three days of walking around. Thankfully I had my crutches.
hi, al! :)
that di5 -- my cousin had a Di5/14 Doll I envied -- it wet its pants
hi, TO
we're singing today!
But between the tourist things and then the school the following week I WAY overused the arms. And then I tried to keep the big dog from being too "friendly" with a cat... and that did the rest. Only just today didn't wake up in pain. *grimace* Tom is making me do NOTHING (and it's working)
i thought that was betsy wetsy
oh no, stid! So did the crutches hurt your arm?
i'm not singing. i'm whimpering. this grid is kicking my butt
you're not alone, TO... still have 76 left!
Besty wetsy was MUCH later -- I'm talking 1935, lol!
LOTS of dolls wet themselves! (and the children, and the carpet, and...)
i have two 8's!
could someone clue the second ni5?
This is my 3rd session at it today, TO. I won't be able to play again until next week...so I MUST PLAY TODAY! (especially after all those months off!)
can someone be so kind as to list them?
there there, TO, have another RUM chocolate mousse.... ARRR!
why not again until next week artlady? I hope it's a fun reason!
ooh stiddy, no rum. no rum for me.
ah, yes... well, i was born in '86... don't have much memory of the '30s
hi TO
evening everyone :-)
ni5 ni * a bri*** veil
Have a board (not bored, though!) meeting in Washington, DC.
hello Katie!
well I hope you'll have good weather for the trip, and not too humid while you're there, artlady!
strange, that, sean, lol
hi jili and anyone else i may have not greeted who greeted me *whew*
anyone got any clues for the de 8 please - still got over 100 to get
haha, jill
hi katie
good evening peoples!!! still trying to finish.
THe forecast for DC is actually decent after tonight. Not terribly humid, fortunately!
hi red :)
adjective describes one who kills a god
oh well, down to 39. Really must "git" or I won't have incentive to finish the work fast! *zips out of the room quickly*
hey red

ty vm - I seem to get getting the wierder words today but not the easier ones
ty lynxx
be glad you're not in south Texas right now...
wait a darn minute - CT 8?
yes, TO, but not from the other "spelling" clues!
and nary a snake or hook in sight!
yes, TO..it's a doozy!
fraid so TOwl
yep, TO, ct8, and it's a book louse
(and my head starts to itch again...)
should be right up your alley, TO... has something to do with birds :P
why won't enable accept "laddy"?
a book louse? who knew.
because it's enable, that's why
i think its spelled laddie
ok
hello all, got kicked off BAbble again!
i will acccept and move on :D
i'm back for the homestretch - 47 left
hi josh seems to be an influx of newbies this week
Hi peri and joshua
peri stop acting up and you won't get kicked off!
hello peri, hello josh
i'm sort of a newbie and sort of as far from a newbie as you can possibly get
why so, josh?
good morning all im here but im not just in case the boss happens to pop his head in the door and thinks im working hard (as always lol)
just new as pro? or new at chat?
hey, kiwi!
Jilli, interesting that you wore petticoats. As a child?
i started back at babble this week, but i actually participated in the first ever babble puzzle several years ago
as a young adult in the 50s, red
well welcome...did you know art lady has history with dr. god/
interesting, josh! It's changed a lot, I hear
how did you find it joshua?
morning Kiwi
I was I suppose unaware that people wore them in the 50's! I guess of course they did, I always considered them crenolines, but they arent really the same are they?
Oooh, that sounds shady, to!
Hi Lynxx and Kiwi.
:D
hi Red
which time? the first time? either babble's inventor or a friend of his was a member of a top secret closed internet community i am a member of, and i got the word to beta test
Oh well, I guess it's crinolines I wore, come to think of it.
Ah, that's interesting, joshua.
me, too jili. as a wee child tho.
I dunno....they are pretty much the same thing yes?
me too, jill as a child
I wore petticoats in the 50s too, and very early 60s - before minis came in
I has one horrid pair of ruffled panties as a two year old....with photos to prove.
I want to enter insecticide. but alas...
going to check for crinoline images -- bbs
i sincerely want "sincere"
much the same as petticoats but some old ones were very stiff and made of wire and such
now back to the devilish Ds
So you did wear petticoats.
I am hating the D words today
ooo, down to single digits!
i think i will pack it up, the weather is extremely threatening. we will get very heavy rain all night,
bye, TO
and i have not found any more 8 letter words.

Thanks though Mayne
phew, finally got the in8, now all i have is the la8
my head hurts i may go back to bed
got it...doing the grid dance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
wtg pbr
crossy has come to the conclusion that he will never be able to type out that magic F word unless the grid is 100 words or less:/
crossy if the grid is that small, chances are the words are that much harder =D
hardness is not the problem with me,time is the issue:/
but ill get one yet!:)
meh, despite me being here often, I hardly ever finish a grid so dont feel bad lol
Yah PBR
I try to finish the grids, but when I travel I just don't have the time
still tons of fun though:)
i have a $4,000 dollar computer and all it has done in the last month is play songs and babble;0
Cross hand it to me :D
Cross hand it to me :D
:)
songs and babble? not WoW or Age of Conan? or TF2? or anything that can make use of its $4000 goodness?
i am ashamed:(
but it is so much fun:)
ive done heavy duty online gaming for five years,this is a nice break for me:0
:)*
Well its still cold here so i turned off the heating
we are sweating bullets here herin,it is 25c
all the fans are going
Its 1 c here
I guess I cant say a whole lot. I may not have a nice computer but I have spent >$510 on 1 xbox game and stuff for said game
I turned off the heating as i can't allready feel my toes and i got a $300 heating bill so whats the feaking point
37C here
Yes similar here, well maybe 40, but it did just rain.
i cant wait for those nice crisp ski days of -15 to -20 c;)
cross hair, you are nutty. I love heat.
sun shining off the snow and your breath pluming in the air...;)
I find it kinda ironic that I have experienced colder weather but far more snow than when I lived on the east coast
ski bunnies everywhere;)
mmmm bunnies
someone say rabbits? lol
I need to take time to go skiing... I live 1 hour from a ski resort but havent been there yet
coldest i have felt is minus 45c:((
and thats enough
any clues for the ts, please
you know its cold when your nose hairs freeze:/
My hair froze once when I was in College, wet on the way to class, Rochester NY.
Wow
hmm I can actually say I got you beat then... by 2 degrees
probably should have dried it.
this is why icepyro is ice pyro and cross hair is cross hair, we didnt know though that it was a cross nose hair.
ts t + S***e Hawkins dance

hi everyone
what about da7/36?
Hi Dawger
hi
think fine and dan** only more so
dawg! how the heck are ya
Hi Dr, Hi stephie, Hi AK! i'm doing well, how are you?
ty - perfect
nasty storms keep kicking me out and i here another in the distance (snarl)
great!
don't like nasty storms! but cooler temps would be nice.
now that would be a treat dawg
i'm such a fair weather babbler! lol fair being up to the upper 70's.
i do not mind the heat but the humidity .... oh my hair!
ich on humidity.
blowing humidity west toward daeg
your hair, what about my Bichon's. He's a snaggle of curls
i don't like feeling sticky
dawg
poor snaggly bichon
I want to brush him, but he's very sensitive
do they still make that stuff...no more tears hair desnaggler?
he doesn't like being wet either. Every other month i SEND HIM TO THE GROOMER WHO GETS IT DONE WITH NO COMPLAINTS. wHEN MOMMY DOES IT, HE CRIES
sorry for the caps
he knows how to push your buttons! my sister's schnauzer does that too.
what ? could not heat with all the shouting
so does our schnauzer
he's a very pampered old man
call the groomer and ask for suggestions on how to unsnaggle him. maybe a light mist of water and a comb, just a little at a time
lol ak
he freaks out when I even get a brish out of the drawer
gotta go and get the kids. good luck, everyone!
bye stephie
Bye Stephie
my min pin would bite at the brush. it never hurt him, but he insisted on chewing on it! my big dobbie would hide. yeah, like you couldn't find him under the chair! lol
It's funny, he's terrified of the brush, but he tries to mount young puppies [and he *is* neutered]
that's just a "guy" thing, bichon! lol
I'll have you know that i RARELY mount puppies dawg!
EWWWW !!!!
You'd think of him as just a little creampuff, just to look at him. But, when to going gets tough...
TMI dan
