thanks ruru! got it!
Mission, autumn. Trying to be environmentally conscious, he took buses and the ferry. The ferry was late and mised the next ferry's connection, so it took him 11 hours to get here instead of the usual 4. I bought him a flight back, which takes 45 minutes. Ridiculous.
en6/18
not me for that E, stid
ty hugs

I just got home from the hospital and am checking in.
hmmm - no, stid. sis is technically 4 yrs older but I still say I am 29.
oh scrabbler.... it's so late (((((many hugs for tired cousin))))))
hi scrabler hugs happy babbling
ty, nDan -- I'm too tired to find even one en6 :(
My goodness, Jill. That was a long travel day for him. So glad you were able to fly him back.
;-) like I said autumn....
hi scrab
hi Scrabs
ah. got it. NBT!
Mary is going to cross over into heaven on her own terms, despite many of us being at her bedside all day.
brb
and that is halfway
It is 2 Am here.
one sounds like what a bride walks down
firewords
oh scrabbler, I was afraid that's why you were late coming home. *very sad face*
okay - going to try for NBT before I head to bed.
my heart is so sad
(((Scrabs)))
{{{{scrabbler}}}}}
wd dart
its a bird its a plane no its speed dartie woohooo wtg dartie ^5
Scrabs...peace be with her - and with you, such a hard time for all
here I haven't even started yet and Dart's finished....
Congrats dDart!
YAY dart!
I am so numb and exhausted from being at her bedside for 11 hrs today. Several of us did not want to leave her yet we were so exhausted.
wtg dart
Good job, Dart. You made mince meat out of the grid.
you need to take care of yourselves, scrabbler, you know that Mary would not want you to become ill.
and the children will need all your strength.
wohooo re words done and dusted too phew lol
Yes, I kissed her good-bye. She will decide when to let go.
I have been sked to be a pall bearer--6 women will be at Mary's side.
go kiwi go
It is so hard, this time, the waiting...
how many re words are there kiwi?
8 hugs
Yes, it is agonizingly slow, but she is peaceful and comfortable. Rick made sure of that.
and nothing bigger than a 6
hmm thanks kiwi... still need 1 more re
TY for listening. I am sorry to make people sad.
I am so glad he is there for her scrabbler.
I am only sad for you, dear cousin-friend, and for her family.
group hugs for scrabbler
I have confidence that Mary is in good hands. (hope that makes sense)
is 7
ditto that kiwi
As a doctor he is making sure that Mary is having a peaceful death--lots of morphine and valium.
if only everyone in her place had people who were as aware and compassionate. *sigh*
Ty all. I knew that I needed to come here before I went to bed.
have the children been able to say good-bye, or are they too young?
They are too young for a good-bye session, but they were told that she is very sick. A family friend took the kids and arranged for a long day of fun.
((((holding children in the light))))
Yes, they will forever deal with the emotions of the loss of their mother.
((((and more hugs for Scrabbler)))) I have to let the dog out. back if I can.
Soo sad. Words can't express my sympathy for everyone concerned
I need to sleep and then work at 1--so I maybe can sleep 7 hrs, if I am able.
Ty, Lynxx. Good night.
go sleep scrabbler or if you cant sleep at least lie down and rest
Goodnite Scrabs((hugs))
nite scrab tc
scrrab -- just got back to see your sad news -- so sorry. I hope you'll be able to sleep and be refreshed

Good morning everyone.
morning elder
Good morning Sprite. How are you ::))
Hi elder and sprite
afternoon everyone and sprite, elder jill hugs and all
hello Hugs.
mi7
Hello Sandy.
hi sandy
Hi sandy
*hugs Hugs*
elder: not great yet, alas. How about you?
mi7 x 2
is that bug still hanging on sprite?
sprite , I thought you were better
I logged in earlier, then left to have cup of tea.
*big hugs* for sprite
I think the bug is mostly killed, just cannot get back my energy.
i'm about to do that and i have to do our annual bas (government tax) return - I hate it!!!
Sprite, doing ok, but not as well as I had hopped for , but still... :)
Hi Sandy, Elder & Sprite - just back from getting coffee
Elder are you not well either?
I bet, sandy! Always stressy, taxes.
wb lyn :)
Sprite, still feeling the effects of that nasty virus. Gosh its hung on for such a long time.
Hello Lynxx.
hi lynxx
didn't the procedure take away as much pain as you hoped, elder?
elder, I believe Walter has been affected by it for something like 8 weeks. It is a bad bug. Not serious, just longlasting and irksome.
Elder I am sorry that you are not "tip top"
Sprite, sadly not, but it might improve and I have the procedure in November so one lives in hope.
Sandy, it is not serious, just back problems.
will pray the one in November will finish the job for you, elder! And please, try and take it slow. Overdoing things makes this kind of pain so much worse.
I sympathise Elder, things like that can be tedious
The other day I did some cleaning up on all fours, as you do and could hardly move for the next day, its so frustrating .
yup, it is a certain sure si4 that you shouldn't do that!
Sprite, thank you :)
I have to go and try to do this tax, I am not an accountant - we do have one - but the husband of evil insists I do things to keep the humungous bill down
I have to try and test out, or how else do you know things are getting better.
poor sandy. Tell evil hubby to get his a** down there and help you.
Elder you must take care - I will be back later- if I don't do this husband will beat me and lock me in a dark place!
Sandy, good luck with the tax.
bye Sandy, if you want to send it all over I'll do it for you
Sandy lol.
Lynxx, what a kind offer.
Thnks lynxx, I will send it over in the private jet!!
poof
not a problem!
if he does, hit him back and file for divorce, lol
elder, silly! You try it for 1 minute tops, and if it hurts, you stop. Finishing the task is craziness.
woot lyn, you rock :)
Sprite, I know :)
*grins at elder* It is tough to be wise with our bodies, isn't it!
aah, the sun is starting to raise its pretty head, that has to be good.
Sprite lol ' giggles '
my son just left for school camp, a whole week :) Nervous as hell, so sweet to see him act out with his 12 yo attitude, lol.
Sprite,He will love it. Is it his first time to camp with school/ friends .
Mums worry, and youngsters revel in in the fun. :)
oh, I don't worry. Well, not really. Not much. Lol. No, he is used to camps, he has gone on scouting camps and school camps before. But this is the first with his new class/school.
bless him. and he will be back soon, with all the tales from the camp and piles of dirty washing !
yeah, and tired as can be, for not sleeping much, grin.
:) without doubt.
they have to cook for themselves, in turn. They are being worked to the bone all week long. Great for building teams, grin.
ca7 x 2
lol Hugs, you steady worker.
Sprite how is your girl. full recovery I hope and back to school.
I need one more 7 and one more 9
Sprite, on his return, he will need to rest on the sofa / bed for days lol
she is much better, only still tires very easily. She is back to school since last Friday. I hope she can go all day, but if not, she will at least go the morning.
go Hugs go!
Sprite , that's good to hear.
Hugs, crumbs your doing well.
elder: on his return I will hug him, then shove him under the shower, then feed him, then put him in bed, lol. Stories will come out the day after, I know how it works with him.
Sprite... lovely.
he is totally a boy of 12 yo. "How did your week go? Tell us all!" "Oh, it was ok." End of story.
ca7 x 3 - and that's it for my 7's
woot Hugs
Yes, that's how they are, bless them.
Hugs I have a hi7/44 and li7/44 if that helps
Hugs, and now I will hunt.
but then, a couple of days later, when I am busy doing some calculating or something like that, he will burst out into some story about camp, grin. And I will put down my stuff and listen.
hey FM :)
Good morning FMitch.
morning FM
oh and a sl7/40 too Morning sprite and all, just babbling over a late breakfast
Hi FM... I got all my 7's... missing 1 of the 9's though

It was the only meal I ate all day too
for some obscure reason I just greyed out both Ds. Am working systematically without even knowing it.
Sprite, a hidden genius.
down to 15.... guess I'll tackle the rest tomorrow
*giggles* I think it is more like a case of super neurotic control freakiness!
goodnight everyone... or have a great day

hello mrp does it already feel as though you didnt go anyway yet?
hi PAV and kids Ciao PAV and kids
you are one helluva clever person, Ishult, lol
I got the two 9's, and they are suckie suckers... as are the 8's
*hugs PAV*
mrp well done
the biggies are about all I have left to find, except for some 7s.
Hi
hi
hi infern
HOw goes it
if ya need some clues for the biggies, I can help out
not interested thanks. Back to lurking and im on Yahoo if you need it
if they are so bad, I'd love to have a clue, mrP.
ok... ac + ro4 (meaning character in a play) + opp of 'out'.... then plural for the 9
brilliant clue, mrP, thanks. And totally new word for me. I tried something like it with -polis at the end, lol.
sm9 is a weirdo spelling for soft spreadable cheese it is like a compound word.... first 5 letters sound like spread thinly, then the last 4 is a suit**** for travelling
got it in 2 tries, mrP, thanks again! First try I took wrong vowels, grin.
i have no idea what language it comes from!
Hello sprite, mrp, herin. Anyone got clue for the bi7 and 8?
allegedly americanism, but I would like to argue that isn't a language LOL
it's 2x Bi7
I only have 2x bi7. To do someone's bi7, and another word for mates, but change u into i.
bi 7 x 2 bi 7/52 what you do when you play bridge
I really don't know, lol, mrP. It looks weird to me.
one is old people, the other is bets
bi7/52=action at an auction
I found the ac 8 (ty mrp).. have the other 2 8's been called?
Oh, I'm so stupid! Didn't see that double consonant at all! Many thanks.
bi7/44=old women (slang)
but mrP, in dutch we know the same word. Spelled ee and aa as vowels :)
the ea8 is the other
hello everyone again and lore
Got it thanks, ishult. Don't know why I thought it was a bi7 and 8. Need my eyes testing. Hi sandy!
hi hydra :) Hi Dee :) wb sandy :)
ea8 is the rank of a nobleman.... compound word with sh4 at the end
sm 9 sour cottage cheese from North Midland America (but I have never heard of it) hugs sprite!
the ea8 ends in a boat
just put a magazine article on the fridge. "I was held captive by a giant pig" Have stuck my face on the woman's face - Pig has the same name as my husband of evil, 'Bruce'
ty sprite and mrp... got the ea 8 and the ac 8; other one is?
LOL sandy!! too funny hunny
roflol sandy!
ca8 dee... it comes off the ca5 before it
He is forcing me to do some of our tax to save money with our accountant of evil I HATE IT
ty so much mrp!!
how can he force you, sandy?
He is truly evil, sprite!! he will beat me and lock me in a dark place - he pulls this one every year!
thanks mrP :)
he sounds like a right dick
silly sandy! As if you would let him. Make HIM do the taxes :)
actually, I suspect you of secretly agreeing with your hubby that it is a smart way to go...
When it comes to the tax ..he is!! and I am such a perfect wife!
mrP: didn't know they came in left and right?
did anyone call the 2nd 9? got sm9
He understands it less than I do! He can't even turn on the computor - I have an appropriate window open in case he comes in so I can pop it up
plural of ac8, Ishult
oh yes sprite! they even come with a right angle! easier to throw away
lol mrP :)
you are in the grid, lobo
and fireworks

so sorry crossy, that really is the pits
heheheh
doub le time pits:))
may i join the snarking?
double time is little consolation for having to work on a holiday
Poor cross. :( G'd morning
nearly all the pictures and "oh aren't I a good artist" have been pulled now, so there's not much to snark left. next time I'll let you know in time :P
but like the man said,if you upright and taking fluids its always a good day:)
mi 7/36 clue please
Morning crossy
morning fm,lori:))
its the center of the bottom of your foot
gran - half way in a boat perhaps?
that's 7/44 fm *rolls eyes*
oo thanks Nono didn't have that one
can't you clue anything right today :P *giggles madly and runs*
ATa its still up at myspace uncommented?
worked for me ty nono:)
*goes and hides behind Lori* I shouldn't be here and babble knows it.
your all very welcome
Thanks Nono
it has comments - we're just waiting for Sherri to validate them - she checks all comments on her myspace. And as soon as she sees my comment, she'll pull the image
Someone out there will be glad I clued the wrong mi7 I just know it !
me! I was :)
OH.
*decides to spend the day with Lori and get under her feet*
do we get turkey at lori's *joins in*
My friends hubby is a tatooist and her refuses to touch others work unless they have passed on
very good of him ... but if someone walks in with something they pulled off the internet, deleted the DO NOT TAKE labels, and say they have permission .... it's not the tattooists fault
That is true.
i have never had the urge to get a tatto as the police already have enough ways to identify me:/
loooool
heh, LOVE the av ATa Hari
It proves that the person is an unimaginative idiot. Even when i put up on image here i try to give a web link or artist link
Cross that is because you are a terror
:)
some silly burglar person got caught the other day because cctv camera caught him showing a tattoo on his neck of his name and age *facepalm*
I saw that.
It was worse than that Ata it was his name and date of birth!!
I knew that ac prefix had to have a word somehow or another
oh! I know it was something like that!
silly silly burglar person :D I love stuff like that
Oh i didn't read that i thought it was like his kids or something
Not one of the criminal masterminds of the century that's for sure
Why on earth you would want to tattoo name and DOB so large and visible heaven only knows!
Hello Katie
so he could remember it when drunk
I was in court when a guy was presented on robbery charges because he had a tea clothe on his head
but he would have to read it in a mirror and it would be backwards then Ata
hmmm yes, maybe that implies too much intelligence
LOL
i have one s to find and its a 9!
saw one where a cop pulled a guy over,took his wallet to check for i.d,the perp speeds away and the cop just sits on the hood of the cruiser drinking his coffee .five minutes later the idiot comes back,steps out of his car and walks up to the cop and says"you have all my I.D in your hand so where am i going to go?"
Ooof, thanks for revealing the other 9. go Nono go!
loool!!
*feels shamed by Lori and Nono industrious efforts toward the grid*
that's the nice thing about the uK, we can survive without ID
***Lori's trying to be a big girl today***
me too. 9s? there are 9s??!
Oh boy they have done a remake of the awesome but cheesy Death Race 2000
awe sweeties have they taken your diapers away ?
I want solipsism
I found an ac 9. ***big girl smug***
***I've been dry all morning FM!***
god! i remember death race 2000:) saw it as a double feature with jaws when it first came to the drive ins;))
I always wanted to go to a drive in!
Cross they have remade it and it doesnt involve running over people for points
first time i saw jaws it scared the crap out of me;/
aww,the people points was the best part
Well this version is inmates killing each other not random people
ewwwwww found it! FIREWORKS
Drive in is fun
Yah Nono
Wow. Congratulations Nono! Nice job

I only managed 83 words in 45 mins, very slow for me
OH my they are looking at teaching kids History and English in schools again.
why Herin when did they stop?

Lored its never been uniformed. Considering my friends boy did year seven in 6mths not a year.
yes cross it would be
**poofing into grid** !! Hey Babble Family !
They have stopped decent English years ago. Listen to the adverts these days.
hey aussie vegemite kid
i had to teach my boy to read and do his letters cause it wasnt forthcoming at school
AUSSIEEEEEEEEEEEEE
rofl.... Hey Lore !
Hi aussie
Hey Herin !!!!!!!!! I missed ya !
Hey Katie !
aussie!:))
dreadful cross i went to school many many moons ago and then it was strictly the 3 Rs
Crossy !! **big squeezy hugs**
aussie!
ATA !!
Oh and many years ago my friend in Year 9 was doing grade 6 work. Noun adverbs verbs that kind of thing
crossy got a squeezy hug:))))
yay lucky cross lol
rofl ! **now squeezy hugs for everyone else**
shoulf give all school kids a free babble subscrip:)
aussieaussieaussie :D
should*
My Parents taught me English and Maths as I never learned my times tables (moved schools) and the kids in year 7 were to busy farting about to learn proper
Oh no we would need to put up with them then
Cross no school monster should be let near babble unsupervised. Too many trolls
way i did it with my boy was first i got him hooked on bookworm,then he had to copy letters and words to get game privilages
Nooooooo, no Babble Trolls please, I get a headache !
maybe I need food before the words will show themselves. back in a min!
I am not very spongie and don't absorb words. I am an avid reader but really sh// at spelling
I've had lunch, it hasn't helped much!!
I had dinner still nothing
shhh katie! I'm being optomistic!
eating dinner and managed to monkey ac8/9 combo !
Lol ata you stick with your optamism
gah, can't move. I have a dog fast asleep under my chair.
And now with depression i forget half way through what i am doing and go off on a tangent. I have zero attention span.
No one likes a bragger ;-)
herin,if your an avid reader check this out! we cannot get it yet,just in the u.s but within a year(they hope) http://www.amazon.com/Kindle-Amazons-W ireless-Reading-Device/dp/B000FI73MA
clue for the ac8/9, pls, aussie!
Cross i have seen the Kindle. Still like books. Love molesting a good book
Ata is starving..... wasting away now..... poor Ata !
Ata I relate to that Crumble was poorly for the last 3 days and I couldn't sit down without her on my lap. She lay on my back yesterday when I was watching tv
Love sullying a good cookbook
Oh Katie is Crumble is ok?
normally I'd move Hobbit, but she's *deep* asleep, and I'll startle her if I move the chair!
I bought Jamie's new cookbook and did the gravy from it yesterday it was great
awwwww poor Crumble
i have hundreds of regular books as well herin,but it interests me to be albe to grab 100 of my favorite books on a sd vid cam card and just grab the kindle and hit the road
Katie its not a cook book unless its dirty
She is much better today thanks Herin & Ata, she is eating again and has moved into the 'milking it' phase of her recovery
who is crumble?
ok, clue for ac8/9.... first 4 letters is an ac**nym, and last 4 letters is anag of the word line, then plural !
THat is a good point on that Cross specially if you are a traveler
ty!!
yvvw !

Crumble is a Cat of Glory
Thanks Aussie
http://onlinebooks.library.upenn.edu/
yw Katie !
And boy does she know it. On flicker she is the calico one, and mummy's cat :-)
my 2 cats are the cats of snorey right now;/
I did have an AWESOME old books bookmarked on my old pc.
I have cat and dog both snoring. it's a hard life
We have 3 Rhubarb, Crumble and Custard. Custard is about to enter her hibernation phase where she never moves off the bed and has to be turned a couple of times a day in case she gets bed sores
My cat is prowling outside ! She is stalking another cat who keeps coming into our garden !
and they dont snore together so you have one doing it for 15 seconds,then the other starts in for 20 seconds so you have almost 45 seconds of snoring then the first starts up again;/
Oh Katie, I love "Rhubarb and Custard".... I loved to watch as a kid !
If I came back as a cat I would end up as one in Greece - feral and begging from tourists, ours don't know they are born
told the wife that im coming back as a dung beetle
rofl Katie !! I know the feeling !
We only meant to buy one so it was going to be Rhubarb (as we already had Custard) but I couldn't leave Crumble on her own there so we had to go for the full pudding :-)
My Sister-In-Law is in Egypt right now, sunning herself, while I sit freezing in old Blighty !!
A dung beetle?
CROSSIE: http://www.sacred-texts.com/ this is one awesome site. I just found the URL
Awww, bless Katie !
looking herin.....
Norrr katie that is too cute
Katie to Hubby "do you want to hold her"...........hubby to katie "just put her in the basket" - a lovely man who knows when he has lost :-)
awwwwww
aha! hobbit stirred! I'll be back with lunch!
rofl !!
Hi babblers
Ata you may be interested in that site too
make a break for it quick!!!
Oh Katie that is so sweet
Hi tingy
and did you know herin,that due to copyright laws,ANT book over 100 years old becomes public domain and freeware on the computer? so all the herman mellville,arthur connan doyle,mark twain etc are now free to load?;))
Hi Tingy
hey Tingy !
any*
My poor little girl was distraught yesterday.... Her Budgie died !
aww poor lil aussie!:(
Well ok . OH i saw this awesome book on the complete Conan tales the other day. Oh Aussie hugs
Oh no, I'm sorry Aussie, how is she today?
we had a green ten year old budgie die of a cold of all things
I had a budgy for about 5 years
I know. She went to his cage to say good morning, and he was on the bottom, toes up !
oh poor baby hugs for aussie baby girl
good morning all
Oh Aussie :(
still got my two they are 8yrs
howdy vwteach:)
She is not too bad today. We had to try and explain that he had gone to heaven. We said "birdie" was with her big brother so he wasn't lonely, and I think she kinda accepted it !
mm a tad dyslexic today i am:/
I would love to get another kitty
**unravels Crossy's fingers**
kids seem to get better than adults aussie hugs for you and baby girl
good morning folks, how is everyone.
hi there shar
howdy sharon,im kicking butt and taking names as always;))
OH Aussie. That made me go all teary. That is so lovely
I am ok, Georgia seems ok today too..... She went to his cage this morning **I didnt have time to move it yesterday** and said "sweet dreams Birdie"
crossy can hear the ladies getting misty from here:(
if i could id send your girl a nice new birdie aussie
I am seriously thinking about another kitty
if you get one herin rescue one from the shelter
we did,and she is the best kitty
I know that. But we have already done that with one. Himself wants a Mainecoon
back. dog back under feet, snoring
himself has lots of money then!
Ata he would like one but i would also like a black fluff cat but its not going to happen. I did also want a white cat named Gabriel but that didn't happen either. I just have princess furry pants
you'll get the cat you're meant to have, whether maine coon or scraggy rescue. it just happens that way
oo just found the gerund ending.
is that a penalty box kind of announcement?
nah, you're ok
thanks ata
I have the day off work today...one of the advantages of working for the state. And my kids are grousing as they go off to school, ha
stops looking at the kitty as i want to take home the defective one
loool :)
Ata i agree with that. We got Pandora by chance. I wanted her the first time I saw her as a palm sized purr fluff itty bitty kitty
Silverclaw was the last sort of cat I wanted. I wanted a big fat ginger tom to cuddle. I ended up with her, and I wouldn't change her for the world
I love Sillies antics
oh me too. she's the funniest little cat, she really is.
they are all correct herin,dosent matter what you think you or the mr want,you will walk in and one will choose you
DOn't you love when they go 'flop belly expose'' PEETTTTT me NOW and then get all peeved when you scratch their bellies
yep!!
we chose Merp, but it was a very torn choice, as he was abused, rather violent, had been returned to the shelter once because his first adoptive family couldn't handle his aggression. At first we though no way, but he kept being in our minds. He was obviously the right cat for us and we for him.
I first met Pandora i could put her in my hand.
awwwwwwww
We had to get kittens as we had Custard already who had been bullied at hubby's old house, we ended up getting them from a farm as the rescue places didn't have any
Hi all..............clue for hi7 please?
when our butterscoth princess does that,she also wraps her paws around your forearm so you cant get away
Eva maybe Merp trusted you over them
poor merp! i'm so glad he has you now
Hi Flask
One of mine has kittens again that are ready to go. I will ship them, if anyone wants them. :)
Wouldn't trade him for all the world, despite all the early blood loss and scars. It took a lot of work, but boy was it worth it.
Sharon you need to desex the kitty
Hi herin....
really, they are beautiful kittens. three of them have 6 toes on each front paw like mama...and I know I do.
Sharon ill take a freak kitty :D
but everytime I get the money saved up to have her spayed, something more pressing happens like a car repair. I should send her with the kittens I suppose
Rhubarb jumps on the bed, throws herself on her back and trills until you stroke her belly, she then purrs really loudly and drools, it's a great way to start the day (happens every morning)
anyone have a clue for me please?
Wonders how much it would cost to send
flask, hi7 rhymes with word meaning covering something with gold
don't they have low cost spay clinics like they do here?
here is a pic of our butterscotch kitty her name is abracadabra and yes she came with that name! lol
Katie Yesterday we refused to get up early till the cat went PERRRRRRRRRP meow Feed me in the b.fs face
the cheapest I can find is about $60. I've had so much medical here that its hard to find the extra.
thanks fuquay
thanx fuquay....
beg and plead at the vets, most will lower their prices if you seriously cant afford it
here they have special clinics for about $25. Have you asked at the local shelter?
ginger girl! unusual!
mm not the best pic im afraid
But I did just hit my out of pocket maximum on the insurance, so maybe soon....They do have something here they call the "neuter scooter." but I've been on their waiting list for a year. the $60 is the humane society. Vets are wanting upwards of 100.
It has cost me about $500 for Pandora's desexing and injections and im unemployed. I just saved and did it
Usually out here in farm country its easy to find a farm that needs some barn cats, but not so easy this year for some reason.
Cross the kitty is cute
we got abby fixed and 2 flea treatments for 75 dollars
I am saving herein...but they keep procreating in the meantime, unfortunately
Sharon Lock them up
You are right, I grant you everything. I wish my children were diligent about that.
thats it for me Fireworks now catch up on the chores have fun everyone
cya all ciao
yaa for lordana! 21 gun salute for you!
We have vets in pet supermarkets, they are reasonable, but more importantly they are very good vets
congrats loredana
ATA there is a Pandora kitty for adoption
Yes, because most vets are rubbish.
I was in pets @ home this morning, and there was this darling little rottie puppy who was *refusing* to go into thei vets
what do you mean, has? and what's a pandora kitty
we <3 vets
That rottie puppy knew what awful fate was in store.
oh boy oh boy oh boy i only have 147 left oh boy oh boy oh boy
Vets are terrible people. It's well known.
he did. poor baby. he was so *cute* though
hi everyone
Pandora is my cat she is white. See my flicka pics. There is a white kitty for adoption
yaa for oodle;))
ty but pfffffffffffffft slow if you'd ask me
okay. THought maybe it was a special breed in your locale or something.
I've always been a dog person, not sure how I ended up with these cats, but the six toed one loves me I can tell.
ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssdds
sorry, that was silverclaw!
hi boo
hey oodle
isms
I have just changed my icon, shows crumble as a kitten - it's no wonder I couldn't leave her :-)
sharn our other cat has 6 toes on each foot!:) her name is monkey..think they were called hemmingway cats or some such thing
what a darling :)
Katie too cute
good move of the letters silver :-) Crumble likes to turn the dvd player on when I am on the laptop
My kitten name is Mango
how is mme la glitterata today, haz?
Boo you have to get a second one and call it Chutney!!!!
Elle va tres bien, merci.
lol
Hi Haz :-)
it is actually my friends kitten, not mine
Hello Katie!
I got completely boggled at all the different types of dog food today - adult, adult light, active, light, pet maintenance, less active, senior, senior light. What;s wrong with plain Dog Food!
My friend is a dog person. She rescues dogs. The last 3 she rescued one had to be euthanasia due to poor breeding so did another one as he was beyond help and was mental and the 3 is a rottie that needs so much care he will likely be put to sleep soon
It's not as profitable.
Hi Boo
cause we love our pets ata! now how bout some dogg cookies? rregular or extra minty? lol
and none of the shop staff could explain what "pet maintenance" dog food meant. ha!
hie herin
I bought supermeat for the cats last week instead of the one in chunks, there was much starving in our house. I am ashamed to say I broke and bought them stuff in chunks
lmao katie!
clue for ac 8 please
our cats like the shredded meat types.they get all moody of i give them chunks
one of Hobbit's silly nicknames at home is Sausage. So when we got Silverclaw, she quickly become Chipolata, cos she's a small Sausage.
The dried food from the vets they have is for neutered young female cats. Honestly go cat would be so much easier but makes Crumble ill
Lol ata :-)
sear
if mine don't like the food, they head out to catch critters. They have brought me so many carcasses (carcii?) its really kind of digusting.
crap
I only feed my cat Eagle Pack
crossy trudges off to the pb....
Sily gets vastly expensive Hills' Prescription Diet, because that is the only cat food I've ever found that she doesn't throw up. Hobbit gets whatever we have in stock :P
I'm glad I'm not the only one whos pets have pet names Custard is Casty, Rhubarb is Ruby Judy, and Crumble is Dumbledore
I am constantly doing that with pet names, in fact the name of anybody or anything I have affection for...
hobbit is generally hobbitella, flopsy or sausage. it's so sad *facepalm*
lol katie,you will like this then, our abracadabra is also abby and also dobbys,from the same movie series i think
Daphne is daff, daffodil, daffy duck, daffolicious.. Zoey is Lady Zoe, little six toe, nikki sixx, etc.
monkey is also monkers,monks,ir bunkies;/
Dumbledore came out of her original pet name which was crumby dumby, somehow Dumbledore sounds better
I thought I was doing well until I looked at the list this morning.
I suspect Spangle has more pet names on babble than anyone else
And more at home....
I'm not betting against you Ata :-)
ooooo tell. what does mme la glitterata get called at home?
I'd better go and do some work. Thanks for the chat, see you all tomorrow
clue for ac 8 please
Spongo. It's a long story.
I had to have a dog put down earlier this year, I called her all sorts of names. I miss her.. Oddly, I've had several dreams about her in the past months, really vivid ones where I feel like its actually her coming to me...How "off" does that make me?
LOL!!! do tell!
If your refresh you can see why I feed the cat Eagle Pack
Well, it's all to do with a video we have called 'Lost for words'
sharon, I swear I still hear my ex-cat jump in through the window most nights when she's been gone for over 4 years now
awwww pandora
boo, ac8= prefix meaning high+anagram of li4
good...glad to hear that actually ata. She's always fleshed out and happy to see me...Last time she brought me a bag of meat.
Ata she probably is.
ty
Lost for words ... hmmmm
I think b.f called that shot: MOTHERLOAD.
Lost for words starred Thora Hird - basically the story was about her struggles with strokes, and she became unable to pronounce things, but got very frustrated. She had designated a retirement home she wanted to go to - Sunnyside or something, but couldn't pronounce it and called it 'Spongo'. It kind of suited Spangle.
why are you lost for words....you mean the grid?
lol! so Thora Hird named Spangle
Yes, I'm totally lost for words in the grid.
In a way! It's a wonderful acting performance from her.
I bet. That sounds an amazing programme
The reason i say ''go Eagle Pack is a 3 kilo bag lasts fatty about 2 months
It's based on a true story - narrated from the point of view of her son, played by Pete Posthlewaite.
now he is a *wonderful* actor
I'm sure that's not how Postle thingie spells his name, but you'll get the drift.
absolutely
I think you'd enjoy it, Ata, if you ever get the chance to see it.
clue for bi 7 please
Boo you do this at an auction
i am clueless
I'm sure. *notes it down*
oh DUH
SORRY
which one boo
Deric Longden, who wrote 'Lost for Words' has written books on learning to live with cats which are very funny.
i only have the one that you do at an auction
Hi Carp.
Oh good. I was trying to remember who wrote the book it's based on.
bi7/44 - old ladies at auctions?
Hello all
lol yes
He first wrote 'Diana's Story' about the death of his first wife. The cat books are since he remarried.
ok break time bbl
ooooo clever haz on the bi7
got it ty
Thank you Carp
Glad it helped, ursh.
great clue haz, thanks.
cluez for the ninez plz
got one for the last co 5/12?
My friend found her cat in a bin.
one nine is a plural of the ac8. its a chemical compound
Ok that dind't come out right
I'm not using the list yet, Sharon, so don't want to lead you astray. I have Mr Powell but that may not be it.
I heard him speak in Leeds last year - had a hall full of women laughing!
I'm not surprised, carp, some very funny one-liners in the programme. Have you seen it?
I'm very nervous today....
she's not had it yet?
Youll be ok and so will she and bub Angel
why nervous angel? or did I miss something
Ata i changed my icon to Itty bitty fuzzy
I have, some time ago. Am enjoying reading the cat books at the moment. We lost our cat 4 years ago.
There you are, Ata. You don't have to just take my word for it. 'Lost for words' is funny and sad all rolled into one.
awww baby Pandora!
I believe both of you :D
my third grandchild is to be born today, Sharon.
And you wonder why I regretted leaving her after i first saw her. Hours were spent rubbing off the ''oil'' smudge off her head (it was just black fur which is a White Russian trait)
omg. silverclaw just came flying into the room, about a metre above the floor. She has the wind up her tail
can anyone clue me for the mi 7/36. rright after the center of the navy vessel?
Ata. ITs not the happy poo dance is it?
it is ...
Good morning, all. Happy poo dance??
Hi Judi. Its a cat thing
the mad 5 minutes cats always have after doing a poo. to put it bluntly!
Laughing at Silverclaw! Hello all.
I have two cats. Don't believe I've ever witnessed the happy poo dance.
Did she Ata?
Judi are the cats indoors or outdoors? Hi Scrabbler
hi scrabs! how is mary?
One is an indoor loaf. The other swings both ways.
I left Mary at 12:30 AM (it is 9:05 AM now) and she was still deciding when to enter the gates of heaven.
Ok.
*sigh* *hugs scrabs*
OHhhhh Scrabbler I thought she was getting better
I had been with her from 1:30 PM-12:30 AM, with her loved ones. It was numbing and exhausting.
how are her kids?
Nope, she deteriorated almost 4 wks ago...sad, sad, sad.
Oh Hun im so so so sorry. I really mean it. I have tears rolling down my cheeks
it is such a profound experience to see someone die
sorry Scrabs
The kids had a fun day yesterday with a family friend and then went home and to bed with Grandma staying over. Rick will tell them the truth. He told them yesterday that Mommy was really sick and that it is OK to be sad and to cry.
24 words to go.
How old are the children?
Go Angel, and congrats about the birth of your grandchild today. Is it a scheduled C-section?
m
too young to lose their mother
Elizabeth just turned 8, John is 4 yrs 4 mo, and the baby turned 1 six days ago. Yes, far too young to be motherless.
So sorry, Scrabbler. Incredibly sad times for all.
oh poor kids. Its just not right
she has cancer?
im sorry to hear that mary has lost that much ground scrabbs:((
Yes, Jean, she became ill during her thrid pregnancy and after the early delivery of her baby Mary was diagnosed with 5 brain tumors.
oh
I want Mary's suffering to end. That will bring comfort to her family.
Godalmighty
next Sunday will be 7 years since my husband's death from pancreatic cancer
I was here in Babble Land at 1 AM babble time and I have never been here at that time, but I knew people would be here. It was soothing to search for words and chat with buddies.
Oh, dear, Jean, so you witnessed suffering and have endured so much.
babble is always comforting
I still replay it in my mind
I love the search & destroy mentality, and the chat is even better.
damn cancer shows no mercy! im up for my third fight with it it seems...the nodes again/ but ill kick its ass the way i did last two times!:)
Hope you do!
YOU GO, CROSSY! My oldest brother starts chemo this week for a long haul. Bladder cancer that spread to lymph nodes in his back. He's most upset that he's going to lose his hair. *rolls eyes*

peuff? getting a bit fancy are we? lol
Um Scrabler sorry to be so dense but what is your first two intitials (first last name there) please
good idea ata! i have several indian friends now..maybe thier ladies would do a nice henna tatoo;)
it's something I keep meaning to learn how to do, and never have time to do
herin, I just sent you a message on Facebook, because I figured that you cannot remember my civilian name.
I need to make more coffee. Anybody want some?
fireworks! got a few minutes of battery left on the laptop -- clue anyone?
ew ew ew :)
would love a cup, scrabs. cream and sugar, please?
And Scrabbler i sent you back a message
OK, fuqua, I just started the machine.
Yahooo Ata.
I mean, yippeee for fuqua!!
Ata, you dislike coffee? I don't love it but I do like the caffeine. I am thinking about switching to all tea.
clue for cr 5 please
I'm horribly allergic to it, but I dislike the taste and smell of it anyway!
oh i LOVE coffee... real good dark roasted strong coffee with just a touch of cream and sugar until it is the color of dark chocolate
scrab - try peet's arabian mocha java blend - to die for... really
boo, read the bottom line backwards
ty
cr5 - thin pancakes... french kinda
oh - good clue fiq
Look at that bottom row--the word was staring at us, laughing hideously.
I will look for it, kje---I am a dark chocoholic.
yep, can see laughter coming out of C's mouth
it is coffee, scrab... not chocolate!
*picking up grid and shaking it*
ah, that is better
KJE
herin
Hello
upper corner e besides stops and school subject?
But you said mocha and my ears stood up, just like my bunnies'.
hello herin... cute kitty... though would be a mess with all my dark clothing
kje, to place on an isolated offshore piece of land?
I will get out my fi4 china for our coffee, kje.
tidbit for you scrab...
Mocha-Java is the world's most famous coffee blend. When someone first thought of combining these two origins, it was before coffee was widely grown around the world. These two coffees were undoubtedly much different from those which the countries of Yemen and Indonesia produce today, although Yemen still produces its coffee under very primitive conditions. As with any blend everything depends on the quality of the coffees used, and in this case the result is a delicious full-bodied coffee with bittersweet chocolate overtones on top of rich and complex flavors. While Americans associate the word mocha with chocolate, they've reversed the facts: when cocoa was first refined and sold in Europe, it reminded people of Mocha coffee from Yemen.
TY, fuqua
TY fuq! great clue... hadn't thought to do that
ew ew ew :):)
KJE it is a mess with my dark clothing. But you know what. If you don't want Fur on your clothes dont sit on the furniture
**closing eyes, saying Ahhhhhh and Mmmmmm** TY, kje.
yum yum yum : )
here is a link for you scrab... http://www.peets.com/shop/coffee_detai l.asp?id=49&cid=1005
LOL herin... but the furniture is for humans!!!
OH my oh oh oh. I just found out my fwit ex is friends with a girl i know from school
yw. battery critical now. time to go for breakfast and plug in the charger. one gratuitous clue -- ea8= ea4+sh4 (took me forever to find that)
How many words today?
poof
ty fuq - bon appetit
nice one fuq
218
Thanks.
Aha, I figured it out, fuqua--TY!
i am on the Peet's web site now, kje.
I have given up on 6 degrees of seperation I get to 3
some yummy stuff there scrab
noooo you want teeeea! tea is good!
their ratings have helped a lot as I have tried things, scrab... I now know I like very full bodied, but lower acid coffees... so any coffee that is too "bright" I generally will not like
fireworks for me.
Yah Angel
my fave tea.... Mariage Frere Marco Polo blend
woohoo grandma angel!!!
http://www.mariagefreres.com/
I'll be back later when I hear from the hospital.
Yahoo for Angel. Is the baby being delivered by a C-section?
I love too many teas to have a favourite. Though I do adore Lady Grey, and anything with orange or vanilla in
kje--I like the idea of low-acid.
but can't buy it on line... always stop in the marais store when in paris
Every few months you stop in, kje?
not a C section...but she is having a tubal ligation.
no.... about every other year
BUT, if you are EVER in paris... you must go!!! toi the marais shop (it was the original)... just walking in the place is a foodgasm
Chai tea please
old wood walls and floors that have absorbed the odors of teas throughout the years... fantasmic!
not a chai fan, herin
Here is a fresh pot of my local coffee..nothing fancy, but it has the desired caffeine. KJE, do you know that I never drank coffee until I was in practice for 6 yrs? I got through college, med school and residency without it.
I mainly get my tea from www.nbtea.co.uk now. or www.emeyu.com
I have never been to Europe yet, but I am studying Italian in preparation to visit my grandparents' villages.
scrab - i started drinking coffee in my second year of residency after my first trip to paris... when I saw what coffee should be
I returned home thinking i liked coffee, ordered it at a restaurant and almost spit it out!
thankfully the US coffee scene has matured since then, but still believe the best is to be had at home under perfect brewing conditions
oh, how fun scrab! where in italy?
KJE that is because USA worships Staryucks
btw, for someone who came to coffee late, i am an extreme coffee snob - LOL
I am an extreme tea snob lol
I am not a starbucks fan, but I will give them credit for bringing american tastes along from the weak watery brew that existed prior to starbucks
ata - i am probably just a general snob - LOL
me too lol
yuck
: )
but we are at least friendly snobs : )
starbucks still does the best hot non-coffee drinks over here. their milk drinks etc
absolutely :D
well, brits aren't known for their coffee... when there i drink tea
I like Hudsons Hot choc
you can get very good coffee now. apparently.
i loke hot chocolate in the winter, but must be in the mood
*here, now
KJE i like the frozen hot choc
My mother's father is from Gualtieri Sicamina, Sicilia, and not all of his siblings came to the US, so there is family that one of my cousins met several yrs ago during a visit. My mother's mother grew up in Piedemonte D'Alife, in the mountains near Napoli.
it has been about 4 years since my last trip to london... but in general, I have found it safest to order tea.... plus everyplace has such lovely selections, so I like to explore that way
well, I went through the whole grid and still cannot figure out Mi 7/36, after the naval vessel centre
so southern italy, then... you will love it scrab... when do you plan to go?
mid foot, inge
TY for the clue, Inge, for mi7.
ty ty ty
I miss my Italian Neighbours. The food smells from their shed kitchen was sooooooo good
I bet, herin
that was it thank you fireworks
In the next 1-3 yrs...I had hoped for next yr as a 50 yr birthday present...but I need to save money, plus arrange it with sisters and cousins.
woohoo inge!!!!
Yahooo Inge! Well done. 160 to go for me.
KJE. They grew their own vegies and it was always nice to look out the kitchen window and pretend it was your back yard
just do it scrabs!!!! not as expenive as you think... plus you have family to stay with which is one of the biggest expenses anyway... sometimes when traveling, the less money you have the better... makes you get up close and personal with the locals : )
I just did all of my bills via web banking...including one that was due Oct 8th....oops.
LOL herin... imagining herin stealing teh veggie garden
phantom: pyloric
good phantom ata
I don't know these relatives yet, although my cousin tracked them down when her entered the village in Sicily. He asked the locals about the family name and they told him where to go.
KJE i did pinch a tomato on the odd occasion if it was hanging over the fence
Haha, herin.
likely doesn't matter scrab... if going to italy and relatives know, you will be invited to stay with them... and should, it would be great fun... americans are too independent sometimes
see I knew it herin!!!
It was on our side of the fence
*imagining herin before the judge*... guilty young lady : )
Mary's ordeal has reminded me to JUST DO IT...not to wait for "someday". By the way, I just spoke to her MIL--Mary is still with us. kje---Mary is getting Valium 10 mg IV q 1hr and when I left at 1 AM her morphine drip was at 130 mg/hr, increasing at 5 mg/hr. Mary has one strong heart and she will let go when she is damn ready.
What :D I have to go next door soon and attack our weeds
Here comes the sun! It is a beautiful autumn day and the ground is covered with brightly colored leaves.
glad they are treating her symptoms aggressively, scab... is she in hospice?
sigh if its not the couch its my new bag. Damn cat.
Hugs Scrabbler
Nope, in a private room at the hospital where the husband is on staff...his colleagues and him (he is an internist) are managing this the best possible way for Mary.
well, thoughts are with you scrab... hang in there
Scrabbler so its like home for her then? Hugs
There was no point in transferring her downstairs to a Hospice room. A one-on-one nurse was arranged by the nursing supervisor, which was a wonderful gesture for Rick.
is she still aware of her surroundings? and her husband? or has that time passed?
There were upwards of 12 of us surrounding her yesterday. We left just Rick, mom, bro at her side at 1 AM.
Nope, she was last conscious on Saturday evening.
oh scrabbler, sorry to hear this.
*sigh*
There were 2 beautiful prayer sessions with a priest, Rick's uncle, with all of us holding hands and Rick lying across Mary, sobbing. It was heartwrenching, but I felt honored to be present.
I think they still know, scrab... glad family has been there
I will get ready soon and go for another visit before I work in 3 hrs.
Scrabbler can you have time off work ?
Yes, kje, we were all talking with her, assuming she can here us and feel our presence.
that is best scabbler.. you know you have been a wonderful friend
Rick asked me to be one of the 6 women that will guide the casket down the aisle during the funeral. Silly question: is black the norm. A friend told me no.
depends, scrab... but mostly black here in the US, unless she had other wishes...
I will work this week as usual and attend the visiting hours when I am able. The funeral will be either Friday (my day off) or Saturday (I will cancel appts).
I would wear black. but that is me
Scrabbler I wore a blue shirt to my friends funeral and we wore blue and yellow ribbons to symbolise his fav colours and the colours he would have worn at his wedding.
Yes, I agree, Doren. I will get a black dress or pantsuit.
*trying to imagine a doc without a black suit* - LOL, scrab, surprised you don't already own one
or wear whatever you know Mary would like. if you know she would like formality, wear black. if you know she would prefer colours and brightness, for the children if nothing else, do that
Hi Scrabs. Just checking the grid before i go to work. I wanted you to know I am keeping you and Mary's family in my thoughts
I have black dress pants, and a black sweater, but I might get a blazer.
hi DR
TY, DR.
Hi Kje
Morning all and so very sorry {{{scrabbs}}}
Rick ordered matching pink dresses for the girls last week, and little John will be in a tie....the funeral will be SO tough.
TY, Nonnie.
can anyone help with the sm/9, please
Night all. They'll and you will be in my thoughts Scrabbler.
hi e1 ... so sorry scrabs
it certainly will be, but you will help them with your strength and kindness
bye bye herin
Sleep well, herin. Hi wildcat.
hello wildcat
TY, friends. I must get ready for a visit with Mary before I work from 1-8.
tc scrabs
Take care, scrabbs.
have the ac9, clue me the other plz
hope the day goes well for you scrabs
*hugs scrabs*
SM9 is a type of cheese. it is the alternative spelling for a smudge and a bag
logging in.. hope I'm not too late to let Scrabbs know how sorry I am .. take care, Scrabbs..
great clue herin... couldn't think of how to clue that
Oh that makes sense?
good to know that it's a great clue. it will take me a long time, though. (no, doesn't make sense. at least not yet, not to me) bu thanks herin
what an odd word!
um, i think it does
ty herin
ata is far cleverer than I!
ah got it, thank you
upper corner B... have anteing - what else?
sm + that is (latin abbreviation) + consonant + ca4/5
MM - what is a clue for the ac9?
(not a cheese we get here in the states)
Old Ladies (as Haz said earlier)
prefix meaning high+anagram of li4/4
Dorrens i believe its cottage cheese like
kje: old bi7 sit around complaining about their neighbors, giving females a bad name
I've never heard of that cheese
its Pennsylvanian apparently!
LOL aloy - TY
ac9=prefix meaning high+anagram of li4/4
Apparently its a cake too
hi im back
pennsylvanian? probably pennsylvania dutch. never heard of it and i live in NJ (next to PA)
TY MM
And here is a recipe: http://tinyurl.com/49x3c9
ty kje
think that's what the dictionary said, yes
ty kje yw kje
It is PD Dorens
i can't figure out the cheese....driving me nutty
comes from german spreadable + caseous meaning cheese-like
That Tiny URL i gave mentions it
but the other normal spelling
thanks, herin, i finally got it!!
lower corner e? is it smelly?
oh oh oh oh oh!
oh what?
KJE same as the other EN 6 but mixed up
the postman just delivered my copies of the first book I've ever worked on. published today!

Gosh! Well done - can I name drop now?
Einstein's granddaughter and a published artist!
you can try! Liam neeson is a better name drop still I think though
He's better looking, that's for sure.
*sigh* at least I'm published, if not pretty *mopes*
*sigh* at least I'm published, if not pretty *mopes* LOL
No! I'm comparing Liam Neeson to Einstein, silly!
*giggles*
Are you doing book signings?
Have you a tour arranged? Liz could set up something on Sark, I'm sure.
well ... I might lurk along with John Howe on some of his ... :D
Goodness, do I have to make an appointment now to be in such illustrious company :)
but I doubt he's going to Sark lol
I hope you tugged your forelock, FM.
of course!
Oh and curtsied at the same time!
Cue best Uriah Heap impression.
yes.. when you are all famous..will you remember the little people who helped get you there..
Haz, as your literary agent you are letting me down big time, where's the manuscript or at least the 1st 3 chapters huh??
We helped Ata get somewhere?
Hi ruru
*giggles* FM, did you read back in the log to Spangle's nickname at home?
Hi folks! Just on for a few before I go make pierogies.
I helped her get to my local coffe shop - does that count?
I really should take a leaf out of Barbara Cartland's book, shouldn't I? She dictated five books every morning before breakfast.
mmm, sounds good mg
No Ata, have been working and doing stuff in the scary outside world'
There's a little Polish shop by where I work, so whenever I can I grab pierogis.
hmmm, haz... that is because they are all identical... just change names and location
ask Haz what Spangle's nickname is *giggles*
It worked for her - look how much make-up she was able to afford with her earnings.
oh, I thought you were making them yourself, mg
you grab pierogis what, doens't he mind?
I sure wish I was, but that is one I haven't learned to do yet.
Hehee, fmitch...
well... everyone must aspire to SOMETHING haz... glad you have a goal there : )
somewhere in the world a polish guy is wincing with pain...
OHH that reminds me... Ata we are still waiting for your own Cartland rendition in pink!
cosar
hey, ruru changed his icon pic..... aaaawww another pretty dog
took a while to set up the wine glass..
nice try ruru but not even close
she kept drinking out of it...
LOL
maybe after you ask Haz about Spangle's nickname
Haz...what is Spangle's nickname?
OK, haz, what is spangle's nickname?
Pink AtaCartland first my girl
Hey, all.

amm working on the is7 right now wildcat- look at im + not ego
im4/6 - the foolish dyslexic's declaration.
I can finish wittering away if that will help?
and i + not yours
is7? ooo
ty
im5/12 - the reply of a collier when asked what he does.
nice clue haz... we in the states are ignorant of colliers
tyty
is 7 is cinchy. ends in li4
Hooray for colliers!
whats a collier
and collies. just because
Google it.
one who mi*** for co4, methinks
oh. sorry haz. you are right!
Ah, those words I love to hear....
and btw, if i've never told you, I support your noble cause, which is not easy to undertake. i sometimes hesitate to say what i think
help please for the 2nd mi7/36
there are people who have perfect scores who never seem to think for themselves. drives me nuts
Thank you, Dorens - good to know that there is support out there, unexpressed though it may be.
Yay Dorens, should we adopt Haz as the chair?
haz has a noble cause?! ooo!
mi7 - in the centre of part of your shoe?
absolutely. she has the calling
Haz has the nobelest of causes - the purity of babbledom :)
you've read her diatribe, no?
thanks a million - pass the fish :)
oh yes
I'm hoping for the Nobel Prize for babble. A lofty ambition, I know.
You're welcome, mari.
it would doubtless be displayed in the penalty box
My only saving grace is that I mostly babble at different times from the main offenders.
well... if anyone deserved the Nobel ... you would..
ooo good idea Dorens .. goes off to google nobel prise to see what the tropy looks like .. if they get one that is.
they get lots of money!
Thank you, ruru.
oh no haz you should be on when the offenders are present
you're just what they need
i kind of wish you would be here when the main offenders were
Never mind the trophy, FM, there's money to be made!
Don't they get a medallion for the Nobel?
Unfortunately a lot of us babble at times to avoid those we do not wish to interact with.
well, this is babbleland, after all. be happy for the trophy. not to much $$ out here
yes i think it's a medal of some sort and money, of course
deliberately fm?
yep
people do that???
They have never taken hints, I think direct talking may be the only way to get through the fact that constant clue requests is profoundly irritating.
**gasp**
Yes Dorens, I don't babble at times I sued to due to that
i find the worst offenders are always around... one is on and off all day every day. she is polite though, so don't know if she offends you. and she does get the clues. she just asks so bloody much
yes, we do
I've changed my babble hours as well.
I think many babblers have done the same
I will never ask for a clue again.. (lying like a rug)
I just close the chatterbox if "those" people are on.
well, i am limited by my work hours--- that + exercise classes and sleep pretty well proscribe my hours. that is sad that you folks need to do that
It's that or speak ones mind and risk upsetting people - a point I haven't reached yet...
I'm with u dor
oh asking for clues is good ruru, i think. it's the way we cadge some of the words, at least I do. but it is the frequency from some that is annoying
ruru - you know very well that there's a huge difference between asking for the occasional clue and DEMANDING that others clue more than half the board for you.
and what happens if u upset them??
do they go away?
doubt that they get the hint
whispers - * it's not me is it* ?
Usually, they don't get it, wild.
then does it matter if u offend them?
NO, mari, you know it's not you!
wild - several are so .. um.. thick skinned they don't even know or notice or ignore the fact.
I think ruru has his sarcasm font on
exactly
"lying like a rug" - LOLOL... so 70s
I step away for a sec and miss all the interesting debating... ha
poor kj
Usually it is not the offender that take offense, it is others.
Exactly Bea
I think the problem is that you feel that you risk offending others who don't mind, and who think it's okay. You're kind of keeping the peace because you can't read others' minds to know that they're thinking 'For pity's sake, think for yourself, or at least make an effort not to appear completely thick'
would be good if we all took a pact and agreed to let them know when they're being annoying. but i know i don't really have the nerve. just curse under my breath here
we curmudgeons are probably in the minority
Of course, I've always suffered from not being able to express what I think....
My new jeans are really uncomfortable - I've just found a cardboard label on the waistband !!
How long has it been there for?
acatually, when i was still new to the game i probably asked far too many myself. before i found morewords
all day!
But Dorens, you make allowances for new people - they quickly get the hang of things. Those we are talking about can't be called new.
I love it when you tell them to look at morewords and they say, "Don't know it. What's the clue?"
Great idea Dorens but there was one classic occasion when there was only Haz Ata and i chatting, no other babbers around for at leat 5 mins and someone came in and asked for clues?????????? and got really huffy when we said we weren't cluing just chatting.
true, true
Well, at least you've got it sorted now, mari.
oh .. yes ...
actually.. they are getting more demanding...as time goes on..
oh you , haz and ata can be intimidating, you know
I've been out all day with husband - you would have thought he would have mentioned it
Ata.. all my fonts are sarcastic
Really, oh dear!
let's see, i need bi4, le6, di7 ro9, mi4, mi5, mi6, ro8, fi8, di4, es6, eo6, du7, fi8,... when I get those, i'll ask for more
'tis true
'Give me a clue. Give me a better clue. I don't know what you mean, give me another one. No, I don't know that. Can I have another clue, pleeeeaaase'
Guys don't notice those things, mari.
men don't notice that sort of thing
Intimidating? I'm five foot nothing!
ditto here, ruru!
interstingong point then Dorens
but wicked with the words, haz
I MUST go to the kitchen!
Back shortly. Don't talk about me while I'm gone, except in tones of fondest love....
of course haz
You see, I don't get the intimidating thing (it's been said before) I'm just.... direct.
has she gone yet?
problem might be that words wtihout visual, facial clues or auditory, like tone of voice can be misread
Back soon!
give it a minute
oh, i love direct... but it can be intimidating to those who DON"T
I think I'll head out to harvest pecAns.
seriously going to ask for a clue and risk the wrath of kahn.... need one more H... have hebrew unit of measure and its anagram... what am i missing?
hi7
it's a gerund kj
ty
got it
and no wrath for you- you're not the problem
Yeah, it's the other KJE. =)
phantom nihilism
bzzzz
oops, i typed LOL bzzz... not sure what happened
Later all.
Bye Bea
are there just 2 mi7?
yes i think so
yes
can't say for sure ata... as I am not done with Ms
ty!
I feel bad that Ata Haz and I seem intimidating :(
you do not intimidate me
Hi all Mari you with us?
pulease, fm - ridiulous
to whom, exactly?!
I'm not intimidated
Too right kje :)
Dorens said something along those lines
oh no, don't feel bad about that. we are not! i only said that becasuse i can see where you might be... quick.clever and soome of these others are so clearly not
and siince i obviously can't type, perhaps I should be!
Ahh OK
well, this *is* a word game
now granted, I am not easily intimidated... plus, if I ignore or choose not to talk with someone, it has never been because they intimidate me.... it is more likely that I just don't like them - LOL
woohoo finished f's
right on ata, but then again.. the way some people ask for clues, you wonder
I know ... I don't see how some people here get any enjoyment from playing
awe dont make me go for a group hug you won't like it :)
who cares.... seriously... different people play for different reasons... if they bug you, ignore them... and I refuse to hug FM
she intimidates me : )
poor fm!
Good I refuse to hug you too :)
i would be delighted to hug fm
(would be intimidated NOT to)
LOl dorens
can anyone clue me the di7/36 plz?
that may be the better tactic dorens
Oh shut up the lot of you :)
she's *very* intimidating in real life
di7 - more plate-like?
oooooooh! she said "shut up" to me :o(
Thats only 'cos Im 6'tall without heels
she told all of us to shut up
di7/36-the gerund for di4/6--to be more of-
Oh of course kje - thanks
we were not allowed to say shut up growing up.... so have had to make up for it ever since
ROFL
Excuse me there seems to be lots of fun here this evening ......I blame FM LOL
caing and going to lickety's
you actually should blame haz (she's not here so we can talk about her)
Evening cait - feel fre to blame me, it is of course all my fault !
always blame FM
of course you do cait... we all do
Oh okay lets blame Haz today.......evening all.........
hi cait
but but why would we blame Haz when FM is to blame!
So whist we are on this whole blame thing - anyone want to name and shame the thorns in our side?
hi cait
MKG!
hah!
wow that was quick off the mark Ata
Im not letting my fingers type LOL
she was waiting for that, i think
I will up yours with mkg and MLF
i can't name mine because she is beloved by many
Dorens - do it and be done with it
Dorens I think I might know who you mean
absolutely cannot... just suffice to say she enters asking and does so all day long
Just do it - tomorrow noe of this counts.
hahahhaa
ok let's do this the hard way ....
scrabs? haz? fm? me? herin? carlee? cait?
think. fm. you can surely figure it out. or go back in the log.. day after day, year after year. hour after hour
anyone there? :D
ea
Ohh lets folow Atas line - is the name in there>
no, no, no ata. but i really can't say. she is a nice person and probably somewhat needy and has been doing this longer than nearly anyone
oh!!
what did I enter into? Of course it is FM's fault
i am sorry i even mentioned it .. will say no more. i want to be a good person!
Oh I know who you mean
what an interesting line of discussion
is she included in: vi, peri, annie?
hi annie. (annie brings out the nice in me. i will definitely say no more and repent now)
Is it our flower? Dorens?
Hi annie
hi annie
hi pug
Hi pug
Hi pug - I was hoping you would be on this evening
hi all
whats up FM?
dorens, you little devil, i knew who meant immediately......LOL
hi pug,
hahahahahaha
cum on feel the noise la la la la
hi pug and hello everyone
umm I was put in an embarrasing situation last night with the language you and MetFan were using in your ummm name game
sorry for that but why dear?
I was introducing a friend to babble and she asked if that was usual.
oooops mea culpa love.
It was a tad offensive
although I think my beloved Met started it(not sure) :)
you can always hide the chat fm
blame Met :P
but the chat is part of the charm
sincere apologies will keep more PG in the future although I have seen worse once or twice in here
not charming for fm yesterday
A troll would have been deleeted for using some of those words possibley but no harm done - she is adicted and will ride with us all on the way to babble glory!!!
Babble on!
wasn't on yesterday to see it. i do use terrible words in life, but not in chat. just doesn't belong
*contemplating what babble glory is*
finding every word in the grid without using lickety's or clueing
indeed, wild!
pug just remeber that all ages watch and or play the game here
ta da! announcing my arrival
and in amazingly quick time too
without cussing or throwing things
been there, done that... glory is short-lived... will seek my glory elsewhere : )
Although I didnt see or know about that yesterday I have issues with bad chat, my grandchildren like to play and I dont want to feel that I have to police this great game

bzzz... my brother invented something to pick up his pecans... similar to a ball cage like is used on tennis courts
My squirrels are not starving!
just teasing & being an arse
Oh, that would be nice, KJE.
he took a barrel, removed most of the slats, and covered it in small chicken wire... now he rolls it around his property under the pecan trees and the pecans pop through the wire into his barrel... kind of nifty
like a tennis ball picker upper
yep
That's a neat idea. I'll have to tell husband.
he has about 10-12 pecan trees... so this helps a lot... only so much you can get the kids to do before they start complaining - LOL
most ingenious

We have 8 trees and they are loaded this year.

clue for 2nd (not the plural) ol 6/18 please
its called Forging Dragons, by John Howe. and I did alllll the knotwork in it
Okay, I'll see if I can find it! =D

Okay. Cool.
add a vowel instead of the plural to ol5
it's a gorgeous book, your kiddies would love it. all sorts of dragons
thanks kje!! fireworks!!
woohoo Hoff!!!\
Yay for MizHoffle!
Forget the kiddies!
*I* like dragons.
you'd love it too! its really really gorgeous
it's basically all JOhn's dragon work over the years, about 30 or so different projects he's worked on, and how they've come about. its very interesting from an artist point of view too
Cool. And I take it you eventually sorted out your issues with which dragon heads he liked!
yes lol, and now - it's really funny - every time I draw a dragon, I automatically draw a John-style dragon. It's really hard to do something different!
I've been thinking of you a lot recently as I've been trying to scan pictures with colored pencil, and they've been horrible.
ick I feel your pain!
**F*I*R*E*W*O*R*K*S**

Hmmm. Sleep-babbling? Still at work?
nope, home from work
hi hurshy smurshy!
Day off?
hey ata
not day off, just i work til 4:30 at my job
Oh, okay. Kids have school off, but husband does not = anti-holiday for me!
yeah - they should really sync those up better - poor single parents have trouble when they have to work and their kids have no school
en 6/18 after the language.. I have the lower corner en 6/?
swap the middle two letters around
Our school system has had 3 and a half days off in the past 2 weeks, so there's no way real jobs can keep up with that!
noo!
what on earth for?
Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Columbus Day, and gratuitous half day that they throw in at least once a month. Teacher meetings or something, i suppose.
can I have help with the mi6/21 please and thanks
i don't think we used to get the jewish holidays
i hit my golf ball badly, therefore i have made it mi6, in the rough.
We always did in my school. It probably depends on how high a Jewish population you have in your district.
ah... rhode island is very catholic.
clue for the first mi 5/12
it is a plural boo
hurshy really slow on the uptake today and do not get the golf clue sorry
can't find the word
speed - tell a falsehood poorly?
prefix + not the truth
Duh thanks all
boo - go DW from the M, not NE
oops - SW not NE
i think the determination not to marry should merit the term "singlism"

OK, will try that again... same 1st 3 as previous si6 + 3/4 of wear you hang clothes to dry?
yay sprite... I was floundering
spain is relatively close to me, kje. Come and visit. You can ask Sinterklaas to give you a ride in December, on his steam ship.
you are beautiful when you flounder, kje
or his north pole
but spritey, i am already coming to visit you in december, silly
what a mart!
esprit - that sounds naughty
good! I like that. Jean, Sinterklaas comes from Spain. Santa comes from the North pole.
coming from me? are you NEW here? ;-p
lol kje. Would be more worried about his south pole.
LOL jeanius
sinterklass is not a spanish word!
yes, kajee, it's Senor Claus
that is because dutch kids do not speak spanish
aaahhh - senor claus... have already met him... we are going out for tapas tonight... with sangria... but no poles
I think you guys are gaslighting me
mmmm tapas
is that like lighting farts ?
oh, monkey... i miss jaleo sooooooo much
are you single kje?
I'd say he is a little old for you, kje. But tapas and sangria shouldn't be aproblem.
lol monkey you are nutz!
me too kajee... but there's an AWESOME tapas bar here in Norfolk called Bardo's
age is relative... the dude has a great laugh!
monkey are you in virginia?
maybe a good shave would clean him up a bit, kje. Good luck :) Don't forget to taste the speculaas, pepernoten and marsepein.
oui oui, jean... Norfolk Virginia
I'm in Virginia Halloween to following Monday, but near Lynchburg
single in Virginia... *keeps mouth shut with both hands and a bunch of duct tape*

kajee wants to just call it "ho" for short LOL
may I? Bullet ... the silver bullet
how about just dan gotta keep it short ans sweet. cars have a short attention span
KJE would come up with something like that
TY mom, that was suggested and tossed around last night... sorry but i had to veto it as I don't want a name that has anything to do with guns or ammo
bullet is great! i vote for that
my last car (bright red) was the Hot Tamale
that is fine, Lil Moneky.
Hi Mom...
struck out Aknitter
the silver bullet is also a train -- in japan they have the bullet train
sorry, it's vetoed
My car is nameless. but I do like that it is one payment away from actually being my car, and it still drives.
so-k mom we will just call it bullet behind her back LOL
i must have a name!
no! pleae no
luigi
silver fox
hi, all
Pam!
hi pam
lol Aknitter
i wanted to call it LaToya but BF said NO
Hi Pam
silver fox is cute
Hi, red, ak, mom, lil and all!
ravi-oli ????
LOLOL that's a riot, aknitter
LOL, ak
so funny Aknitter
i'm really liking that
if you pick my choice to i get to go for a ride?
Whooo Ray for Chef Boy Ar Dee
who are some famous grey-heads? Hmmmm... Jerry (Garcia). Dean (Martin)... Susan (Sontag) has a great grey streak, as doesn Elvira....
knitty, you can go for a ride anytime!
can i knit while you drive? i love to knit while others drive
for a big grid, this is a a difficult one.
of course, if you are knitting something for me to wear
i will be knitting something for ravi-oli
hahaha
I was just about to suggest Silver Fox!
How about Silver Streak?
(Gene Wilder would approve)
my best friend's daughter is waiting for the final name, so she can make be a little alphabet bead thingie to hang from the rearview mirror
Hi Nrkii
hi Mom
nrkii, that was suggested!
hi, nrkii
i think i will knie him (ah it is a him???) an antena cover
Grey Goose?
hi mkrii
oops! i mean, "make ME a little beaded thingie"
knit
hi all!
TY knitty... it (it's an IT) can always use an antennae cover
The Enola Grey
yes, Grey Goose was suggested
LOL Enola Grey is very cute and funny
wow, I'm so so so late to this discussion...
you must determine gender before you can decide on a name monkey, my car is a boy
enola is a lovely game.
name...
othe suggestions: Greyhound, Sterling Silver, Remington Steele, Steely Dan, Silver Fox, Silver Streak, Mercury
does the ea 8 follow any other ea words
now if it were that car from Back to the Future you could call it the Delorian Grey
yes, Aknitter
yes, knitty, follows the ea4 & 5
take the man's name and add a body part
LOL Delorean Grey I love it
Mom? body part? I have man's name + sailing vessel
delorean is FAB
pural the man's name and then the body part
same as yours Lil Monkey, just messing with the clue
DUH! i see Mom... amazing how a little wine can discombobulate your WHOLE thought process LOL
besides a lip is there another body part in the grid?
Well, you could go with Dorian Grey, but only if you had someone draw you a very nice picture of how it looks now, so you can hang it somewhere secret
yes knitty
etc etc
BF is leaning toward RAVioli
change the L
got it ty
that is my vote, Lil Monkey
:) good deal Aknitter
Rav-ioli ha ha my candidate
really mom? i thought you voted for Hi Ho Silver already
hmmmm, I don't know about RAVioli... maybe if it were a different color... beige with orange trim
no, I didn't vote
and brown leather seats
well, it's a RAV4, nrkii
no, I get the RAV part
lickety is BACK?...coolio
at least I don't think I did.
brown leather seats -- that would be the meat filling
OK, nrkii... yes i know the color thing doesn't jive
but the ioli part doesn't work for me
seats are dark gray leather
Hi {{Carlee}} how are things? How was the camping trip?
aknit... yes, exactly, and orange trim (pinstripes perhaps) for the sauce
OK well the polls are still open
i love anything with tomato sauce
camping was fun...Ijust had a nap
I am glad you had a good time and are well rested
speaking of polls i drove by a sign outside a school the other day -- it mentioned the voter information and that they were lokking forward to seeing everyone at the poles!! a school no lesss aaggggh
RAVel's Bolero... DepRAVity...
oh my gosh, Aknitter
knitter, do they vote at the schools? in my home town they do
Dont they often have actual Polls, voting, at schools? Or was it the spelling gaffe?
ohhh, it said poles???
ouch
Almost all the polls here are at a school
Hi Hshliz
hi all
oh they have the voting at the schools i wanted to run in there and tell them to use a dictionary
Sad...for the school to make that error.
you should have, Aknitter
I totally overlooked the spelling gaffe knitter, because I'm so used to that kind of typo in chat forums that I just automatically translate
Woooow.
someone must have because a few days later it was corrected
red are you howling at the full moon?
I am seeing targeted Ads for NC agaist the McCain Campaign.
my favorite is the big flashing carwash sign I pass on the way to work, that once a week read's "Ladie's Day"
they are a bit hard hitting.
Just saying Wooooow.
lol nrkii
woooooooooooooooow hoooooooo
Now I am surprised that much ado has not been made about the male organ in the grid....
gee, didn't even see it there
I discovered it and the otehr only just now.
hiding in the corner...
i did not notice that appendage i till you pointed it out!!
we've all already found it?
oh I saw that RIGHT AWAY
Hello RUru...
:)
hey where did monkey go? monkey did you pass out?
hi Ruru
must be a little one.. all the girls missed it...lol
hee hee hee
she might have, she said she was 3 sheets to the wind
oh geez, Ruru
lol ruru... I found it soon enough
I hope then she did not run off to drive her vehicle.
i would not think so
WHoo hooo for me I got all 27 c,s without asking for a clue :0 ) And hello all just popping into chat to say he again LOL
Hi MaMaWa
and congrats to you
Hi Mama, impressive!!!!
hi again I meant
*bowing to mamawa's greatness at finding c words***
I have 7 of the 27
Well impressive for me anyhow Red. How is everyone?
i am boycotting the C words
NO greatness here just using list and lurking LOL
Those ca 7 killed me all day
Finally got them after I made a real effort
Mostly , as you all know I just enjoy the grid for fun and love the chat
Hence the poor rankings and such after all this time of Babbling
is 7 please
I am with you on that MaMaWa. Love to chat. Try to get at least half way, although no lately
I keep forgetting that ign works for some words too (not just ing)
mine are terrible too Mama, it doesnt matter, I mean, you dont get a raise for doing well on babble.
not*
Well off for now just "so Proud to finish a tile * happy babbling
bye bye MaMaWa
have a question....
I know red , its just for fun and stress relief ;)
{{KJE}} go ahead
yes kje?
I have a friend who wants a fondue set for her birthday... anyone have one or know the best?
(((mom)))
*staying for kaje ?*
Watching the colbert report....
hi AK, red, mamawa..
hi kj..
fondue is fun
well, OK, AK, but do you know which one to buy!!! LOL
the fondue set I had, I gave to our son. It was the old type that had the tea candle to heat the pot
a tea candle probably isn't hot enough
i don't have a fondu set. that would be dangerous. i just mooch it from a friend who has one. hers is electric
I've seen some with sternos... gel fuels... electric...
Of all the kitchen gadgets, etc, I do have that is not one of them, I suggest looking on the food network links. : )
kje why are you in spain?
me either, mama... never felt the need to make it myself... though have thought about buying a raclette set
read the profile ak
raclette set???????
yes... swiss thing... melted raclette cheese... but you melt sqaures at a time over veggies... very yummy
Speaking of Spain, do we have any friends of Babble in spanish speaking countries that I dont know?
no can do kje for some reason when i click on peoples profiles i get kicked of the site and can not get back for quite some time
had raclette at friend's house in basel and have been somewhat mesmerized ever since
yum, kje!
The daughter is a Spanish major and required to do an immersion(?) quarter out of the country
I love RURU's idea.... must change icon....
the cheese sounds great.
I like it as well, but gotta stick around to Vote....
AK - ruru said he had moved his flag to canada in protest until W is out of office... I thought that sounded fun... so have moved to spain... advantages of spain.... tapas and rafa
lol -- that is funny
hmmmm, will think mama... my sister lives in mexico, will that help?
Such a great idea....
Such a great idea....
I moved (mentally) over W a while ago LOL
I feel so so good after driving home and seeing the plethora of Obama/Biden signs.
Yes, Kje
would she care for a young brilliant woman in college?
seriosly, no offense to the canadians here, but if you're going to live somewhere virtually, pick someplace with really good food, wine, and cheese!
for a few weeks
email me, mama and we can chat... my address is in my profile
i would like to move to scotland
always wanted to visit England
REALLY good food, wine, and cheese!
I virtually live in the land of plenty food and wine LOL
she teaches at a school, so if your dtr wants to do some work, it could be interesting for her
And lovely turkish baths in Paris as well Pam!
england is beautiful
Maybe I should go back to Africa?
ty Kje, I will
loved that afternoon tea thing
so civilized
maybe someday .... after I get up the nerve to fly
yes, red... had a hard time choosing between france and spain and italy... and thailand and vietnam... great food places : )
So, doc KJE, I was really impressed by my annual gyn appt--they now do a blood panel for homocysteine and Vitamin D as well as the other happy stuff for old dames like me who need hormone assistance!
I love tea and do an afternoon tea
Sure, red.... pick a country...
Yes it is a requirment as a major that she study Spanish in a speaking, living environment
I picked France as I speak some of the language...
Nice Pam, I would never be able to afford that with my current insurance.
well, mom, the great thing is you can travel virtually without a plane : )
really?
OK, so I take it NONE of you have any help re: the fondue set??? LOL
what drug does that kje..
I only do three things on the internet ... babble, IM my children and email
I have no idea kje.
it' s amazing, red... I have PCOS/PCOD so they check the usual suspects...
sure, mom, i am in spain and it took me all of 20 seconds or so : )
I do see they are making a comeback, KJE, but don't know any brands
if you're kinda dating aren't you s***lish?
I will jot down your email and get in touch kje, ty. Okay for real now the pup needs out and I am poofing for now , may be back later to grab some more words. ; ) and chat of course
KJE, I used to use a double boiler, so I am useless... check epicurious.com for recommendations?
well dan its like singing english, like Opera in English?
double boiler? do those still exist?
Bye Mama...
dan - every ish and ism word has been tried... almost all to no avail... depsite lots of creative minds : )
eek lost my flag choice
yes.. for melting choclate.. yum
I do have one of those, use it every Christmas holiday to dip my buckeyes
RURU--your flag idea is FAB
but you cannot put a double boiler on the table, peopel!
knitter is anonymous countried!
ak - a knitter without a country
LOL. kje
Maybe you cant kje, but I would!!! I am horrible, and I wonder why I am still single?
LOL red... I promise it is NOT because you would make fondue with a double boiler - LOLOL
i am starting my own country == woolbania
No no, kje its because I would SERVE it that way,
kje, epinions has a gazillion to look at!
sounds like a lovely country Aknitter
nothing wrong with that Red
hmmm... let us know a little about your country, ak, maybe we'll join you there
well I am going to go and get my bath, it is almost bed time. As always, so good to see all of you. {{hugs}} and good night.
Ciao, mom

{{KJE}}, I will. Pleasant dreams Pleasant dreams to you as well, Aknitter. Pam, you too.

Did anyone else see Michelle Obama on the Daily show? She is hysterical....and of course lovely.
+ ea8... babble math
= ea8 - durn, screwed that up
I got it Kje! Thanks
did you guys watch the 2 couples post last presidential debate.... fascinating
yw dr
Hi Dr.
it there a flag for red sox nation?
Hi Red. How are things
hey AK is in... scotland?
LOL ak, I wore my red sox nation shirt today...
I am good DR, relaing after a 10 hour drive home today.
that is a LOT of driving
i took a reallly peedy plane kje
relaxxxing that is.
sounds wet, AK... and smelly
speedy LOL
Yes, it was. Luckily most was on one very straight highway. I called my dad and had a nice long chat with him.
does anyone have MI 7/36?
and I get to do it all over on Wednesday. Woo hooo.
I bet it is nice to be home
mi7 - center of bottom of foot
middle of your bootom of your foot phand
it really is DR...though its chilly!
Can anyone help me with the di7 please?
thnx, red, and KJE
nice fall weather up there yet, red?
more plate like jee
di7 - cuter?
enjoy your time at home then Red
di7- sexier?
ah thanks...so easy once you see it....:)
chilly.
di7 - better gossip?
sexy cuter plate like!
more plate like
it is windy here
leaves turning, red?
not yet, really.
red, scrolling thru chat--saw Michelle Obama on the Daily Show and loved her more than ever!!!
too bad, I would like to see some pretty fall foliage
Was in the low 70s during the day, but I mean, NC is still south...but it definitely is not perpetual summer here.
Une she was so funny when she said "I'm an Obama Mama"
I just thought she was thoroughly delightful, smart, clever . . . etc.!
She really is. I like how she is out campaigning, you never really see McCains wife campaigning...
OK, now curious... will have to youtube it
very relaxed and genuine, kje
that is what I was saying earlier, red... did you see the 2 couples post last debate... like night and day!!!... I'll get you a link - hold a sec
I was wondering what you menat by 2 couples!
but yes, they were...
kje, here's a link--her interview is in 2 parts: http://tinyurl.com/3qk5b4
http://wonkette.com/403364/post-debate -video-mccain-flees-obama-stays-foreve r
TY une
and yes, post-debate the contrast was amazing
It will be interesting to see what happens in the weds debate, since McCain is faltering so much in the polls.
it's like mrs mccain did not want to touch anyone... and had no idea how to talk to anyone
clues for the B words????
I finally saw her campaigning a little, and she really is not very interested.
one is old ladies red
er interesting.
Ahhhhh
red here is your clue they all start with B!
bi7 = a derogatory word for old ladies
TY DR!!!
YVw Red
the other one is what you do on ebay, gerund form
well, i guess it isn't as if she got to choose to run for office... maybe she has no interest in doing this
Oh fish me for that...
Possibly kje, but...I guess I would prefer a first lady to be someone approachable! but perhaps its jsut that I dislike McCain so very much.
slapping red with eel
I feel the same way about Obama
I think if i had not been pro obama... watching them post debate would have won me over... the reps can talk about how they "relate" to the middle class and joe six pack... but the dems actually are able to communicate with them
:D
kje, I would guess most people wouldn't be swayed to the opposite candidate by that though
most people made up their minds years ago
no, but the room was full of undecideds... not either sides base
candidates are so different I dont see how people can be undecided.
that's easy red -- dislike them both
or even more likely, dislike them all
red, I don't believe they are... I think undecideds are getting so much attention that everyone wants to be undecided - LOL
:) it is indeed the choice of the lesser evil at times. I am not pleased with either health care proposal.
I am usually in the dislike 'em all category, nrkii. I have written in more candidates than I can remember....
anyone like lentil soup... just had some kickass lentil soup... a recipe from cooks illustrated
I am not in favor of making wolf and moose hunting a national sport myself
YUM, kje. Vegetarian?
love lentil soup!
ooh lentil soup...did it have sausage in it?
good for you ruru, and yes I like lentil.
ruyo.... in and out...
fireworks and out for me... happy hunting all!
congrats, nrkii!
nope, uses bacon as a base, pam
wtg nrki
congrats, nrkii!!!!!
guess you could omit that, but it makes it yummy
had a phone call.. do I have to wear birkenstocks to enjoy the lentils kje?
thanks! night!
sounds yummy, kje... wish I could eat meat!
and hug a tree while slurping! LOL
LOL, ruru
well, i do not own birkenstocks, and i am enjoying them immensely
will get the link for you
*** pictures kje in birkenstocks (((
Is there a list of words by first letter and length?
indeed there is funguy... lickety's babble clues below the grid
hey guys
MI7/36? last word and I desperately need help. I can't focus anymore on this very elusive word. Please help.
back for more :)
hi rows.
thanks kge
hi, gramma and rows
how're you, red?
Howdy
good, hi gramma and funguy
OK, here it is... very good, and lentils are easy to cook... http://www.cooksillustrated.com/recipe .asp?recipeids=1533
evening! how is this one?
hi, feather!!!
weed!!!!!
sux
mi7 - middle of the bottom of the foot
OMG! all I had to do was beg for mercy and I found my last word.
kje, says we have to sign up to view
weed?
is it doable before i go to bed?
weed=feather=heather (a plant, or scottish weed)
oh, i have an account... oops... will post it in my profile later
DUnno feather I am finding it a bit slow going.
What time do you go to bed?
it is long feather, but only the last 50 or so go slow
about an hour or so
ok, i'll try for it and grab the list once i hit the sticking point
It seems to me that it's very straight forward. ( except for a little bit.)
weeds math is bad... feather = heather (real name) = scottish weed...
well, 7 letter word for my first word, so not bad
may have a clue for the 1st PE 6/21 pls
pe + river in Egypt
pe6/21 - having to do with the male appendage
*splooosh* diving in...
thnx, Une
PE + a long river
oh, much better clue une
ha, how funny. i ignored the nile clue, figured i'd read clues when i got stuck. glanced over and saw kje's clue, and knew it instantly.
Oh dear, I'm way too slow to be cluing
beautiful flicker pics, weed... too darling!
oh crap. i ignored the river clue i meant.
oh, they're pretty old!
ok, someone want to put a nametag on a seat in the PB for me? i'll be a frequent visitor i fear.
nick's with the thumb is cute
:) ty
I got you covered Featherbee
he stopped sucking his thumb on his own one day
already have one waiting for you, weed
thanks dr!
... and if the PB doesn't work, we'll pull out the weed-be-gone : )
good thinking
nooooo! *eeeeeee!*
lots of famous people still suck their thumbs...
like?
really ruru? interesting
monica lewinski for one
LOL]
*rolls eyes*
someone we ALL aspire to be - gag
gag?
anyone have a hint for the first mi7?
it is my valley girl imitation
mi7 center + boat
I don't think she was sucking his thumb
mi7 - middle of a sailing vessel
what an inappropriate word to use
ooh thanks une
OMG gramma - LOL
*snort* gramma!
she thought it was his thumb.. I read that in the paper
ruru! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!

ruru, that was totally how I felt about it . . . expected it to be shallow but not soooo boring
he is 9
fun DR... that movie has sooooo many great lines
** gives tongue depressor to kje to bite***
Yes, it is one of my favorites
*resisting the urge to start quoting, turning eyes to the grid*
make sure to pad it ruru for old times sake.
shall i tell you what to do with that thing, ruru
YUCK - no biting on wood...
as you wish feather :)
*having a hard time with ac8 and ac9*

on the 'puter?
I mean - lost computer data...
kicking is good exercise
Yep. Someone deleted a years worth of data and they are kind of freaking about it.

Brand new here....just starting with the 4-letter words for now...except the occasional stumble onto something longer....is this the best approach for a newbie???
Fun, everyone finds their own way. I just look at the grid and pick out as many words as I can, which for me usually starts as the four letter words.
Me, I go for broke...find whatever I can and try and follow any clues! ;)
lower left, friends of babble, top 'nn'id col, lickety - open in new window, will give first 2 leters & word value in order
I go through and enter all the ones that stick out, then I go back and work a pattern usually starting in the upper right corner
but lots prefer to strike out on their own & use list as last resort
I use clues and More words as well as clues from here
Hey funguy! once you do a few grids, i think you will develop yiur own way. sometimes i get all that i can see right away, then go for the 4's etc..

it's a humongous help
ohhhhhhh...I misread...
I do the grid on Lickety's page, and then upload with Expert
I'm not one of those adventurous souls who like to "fly blind" :P
ah...
I fly by the seat of my pants...and then resort to lickety's...haven't tried expert yet...
my objective is to finish the grid, if I'm going to do it at all, and to do it as fast and as easily as I can. call me lazy, or whatever :)
=)
if I hadn't missed 10 days of grids, with Lickety gone, I probably wouldn't have tried to do today's, but in the circumstances ... :)
i know what you mean
brb - one last puppy check before I get my pj's on!
in the last couple of months, I mostly haven't even tried to do grids larger than 150 words or so
I need to take a pill, and am about to be late taking it, sooooo ... nytol
Pini in PJs *s*
tyger--are you still here???
back
Hi Pini and funguy
in your PJ's???? *s*
yep
;)
I am wearing my PJs.
*g*
Did you go Pro since you've been here tonight, FunGuy?
I am overwhelmed with all of the PJs...can't think straight any more *g*
what is pro...signing up?
now now...calm down, boy! ;)
pro = signing up, yes
I'm doing ok *g* (I think)
Yep... I signed up...you're stuck with me now!
Hey, gang, another one has been assimilated!!!!
I have no ranking, no photos, no real bio...but I'm here
That's a start, FunGuy!
how is everyone doing?
doing better now that I'm done, ruru
Gotta start somewhere some how! *lol*
good for you pini
how are you doing?
so true, FG
How do you add an icon?
under My Account...choose "edit" under the grey head
back momentarily - I was about to close this browser iteration, and saw scrabbler was looking for me. still here, scrabs?
hi all
scrabs???
hi
hey, kaz
OK...I see...now all I have to do is find a good icon or pic or something
did she leave?
yep...easy peasy
I like yours Pini *s*
thx ;)
fun, some people use a photo of themselves. others use one of a pet. I'm big on tigers, so my icons are nearly always tigers, and I change images monthly. a bunch of people do themes that change daily
I'll be lucky to get just one *lol*
ready for the next grid...
hiya ruru all
if you become interested in the themes, sprite is currently in charge of coordinating the themes, and you can find her near/at the top of the rankings page first column
hi dart
hi dart..
hi pini
if scrabs isn't speaking up soon, I"m gone. I still need to go take that pill
.... and get to *bed*
I haven't seen/heard her yet, tyg
what pill?
the one for my stomach acid - it has to be taken separately from all the others
Nexium
oh.. poor tyger..
she was here about 12 minutes ago - scroll down :)
do you have acid reflux?
thx, ruru. I've had to take various pills of that sort for many years now :P
yup
my wife has that too.. what a pain
nytol
oh, indeed. *poof*
