HI Sprite!!! hmmm, icon...
she has been asked to do the illustrations for a children's book
woooot flosey! Am happy for your daughter. You must be so proud.

very exciting sprite
it's only 11:21 here, still time to monkey away at this...27 left for me...
gg pav
sorry PAV, thought you were saying goodbye as well. Glad you are not :)
hi and almost bye spritey
lol 1Mar, this is shocking. *smells under arms to find out why everybody leaves*
cooked a huge pot of spaghetti sauce today...used 11 1/2 of minced beef
just stirring it is tiring me out!
I'm just going to fetch another pic to better represent a clue...
errr 11 1/2 lbs that is
wow, that is a lot, 1Mar. For the freezer?
yes
I do that about once a year spritey....
smart thing to do. I should do that some time.
figure once I'm making it I may as well MAKE it....lol
too true!
now that my son is married it should last a lot longer lol...unless he wants to steal some for his bride :)
and I think it gets even tastier when you make it in huge amounts.
he probably will, lol. She might as well!
yes...and anything made with tomoatoes always tastes better the next day and beyond
I do that as well, unfortunately my side-by side fridge/frfeezer is too small to store anything in it , so I end up having it for the week...
evening all :)
I have a side by side too (albeit she's a very old lady now) but have a deep freeze too
hiya MrP!
very true, 1Mar. You inspired me, will do something like that soonish. hi mrP
hi mar :) hi sprite :)
you'll be happy you did spritey....cause then you'll always have something at the ready for dinner for the family
icon updated for today, will play the prediction game again next thursday.
Good eve, mrP
hi pav :)
how are you feeling these days, MrP?? hope better
mar, would love to say yes to that! I will get there I promise
*whistles down a truckload of healing angels and sends them over to mrP*
aww MrP...:( so wish the best and speediest healing for you
thanks so much guys :))
how many word tonight please
too many smudge... 124
124 smudge
124, smudge
thank you
lol MrP...well if hubby has time to do his wonderful thing, it won't be as difficult as it is now!
anyone care to clue the c from the 2nd column? that would give me NBT's ...and then I would rest easy
ce + new ***eans.
and plural
omg thkx spritey.....how could, would you know that? Never heard of it and never would have gotten it???
has been in earlier grids :)
it means: A freeman of the lowest class in Anglo-Saxon England
and this is a word you have remembered??? lol ....Mar tips her hat to the spritster!
*grins* thanks 1Mar! That is how my silly head works. Once in, never out. Especially with words I once had to hunt for hours.
hunt for hours??? really??? such patience (wishes she could send a few meals worth of spaghettis sauce to spritey) as a reward!
cause it is really yummy and I have the patience to make sure I skim off 95% of the fat before I add the liquids
I wish the same, 1Mar! Yes, a longggg time ago, before the age of lists, this was pretty much a solitary game. But sometimes some people would be willing to clue a couple of really tough words, and compare amounts. They taught me words like this one, and secpar, and many more.
brilliant, I usually do the same when cooking, will remember to do so when cooking in mega amounts!
<------trudges back upstairs to stir the pot...
yayyy I found the 7!
wonderful spritey (although I never doubted you would)...I on the other hand had to beg and borrow for a clue
errrr ...although I never doubted you wouldn't, that is )
no, usually I am not too great with the biggies. I have trouble spotting them.
sheesh think it's almost that time for me
lol, is it?
yep...no list and dummy me has not gotten a word for over a 1/2 hour
so would you like to have a clue for the 7 or did you already find it?
oh someone clued it a while ago...without the clue I'd never have gotten it (blush)
don't blush, not an easy word!
but merci bien, ma cherie, spritey!
ce n'est rien, 1Mar!
:) ici au quebec, on a dit, d'a rien
pas si longue, lol
did you find my icon clue?
no spritey, I can't really see what that is...:(
bleh...hate the hiccup...tells me it's really late (for me) :(
think Juliet
oh yes I have that thank you
and plural
this is babble, sweetie. It is always early somewhere in babble. It is 9 o'clock here now :)
lol and then again it's always late somewhere too spritey!
middle of the afternoon here
yup, wtg :) And the grain storage too?
hehehe, yeah, the glass is half empty, grin.
hi Tanja
3:03 am here
hi and almost bye tanja
hi sprite

I would soooo love to get one more word to give me an even 40 left sigh ...
do you have the D on the top row, 1Mar?
yes thx
dh4/10?
another clue from someone else (blush)
darn. Not go4 in guessing today.
the throat-clearing sound ah4?
lol yup got it
the recurring sound...ound...ound with another last vowel, and plural?
I only have 3 of the 4 n's from the bottom left corner...
lol, you must be related to my husband. We call that Van Dijk's left. Most people call it right.
oooo just got it!
wtg 1Mar!
omg I said left when I meant right...omg
*giggles*
*shudders*
time for bed, 1Mar. Off with you, before you fall asleep on the keyboard.
okay mommyspritey....have a lovely day and see you later...hugs
thanks 1Mar, sleep well and dream even better *hugs*
g'night spritey...night all...poof
why not acryl?
and why not roos
quite!
found the shark
shark... hmmm
well, it is really cod, but I don't believe the packaging
ah, I think I know the one. ha?
yes! that is the one... and it does taste like shark!
definitely something I should eat some day. I did eat sawfish once, it was delicious.
swordfish... very nice on the bbq!
darn, that is the word. Swordfish. I am really not ok today :(
i accept sawfish! I know what you mean by that
just like you know what I mean by cod-shark
hehehe, thanks :)
Tim will come back from school camp today :)
luke keeps asking me to try 'gormungous'
it is a phantom, luke, but a great one!
ok, he spells it gormongos
I want tram, gordon, cordon and many others

hello everyone

Morning all This is a 'monkeys only' grid today. Have changed my icon to a clue

hi FM :)
hi fm :)

night all...missing a g, but with 16 left, it'll be easier(?) after some rest
lucky ive already got that one mitch
go PAV goooo!
sandy, no, think Juliet for mine.
time to insist that the clues be put up I believe!
darn FM, can't you give a word I don't have yet?
sprite, i thought is was Rapunzel ! LOL
Hi spritey, MrP sandy Tanja and PAV Maybe in a while sprite as I have only just started ;)
hello
It is a beautiful picture - reminds me of my courtships
night mitch...
yeah, the picture isn't so clear. Sorry about that.
hi tanja
How many words today please
wb Tanja
124
124, gran
hello MrP
Rhanks
must try that gran
Sorry
rour rerlcome
now that was a cute growling thank you, grrrrrin
Thanks for the clue icon sprite, I would pribably have ignored that word thinking it would be rejected
i used to laugh my ass off when going to a japanese restaurant with my ex... his name was Herro... they would say 'Herro Mr Hello!'
lol
i needed it too mitch
lol MrP
that was the reason I picked it as icon clue, FM, but I am afraid it isn't very clear.
Herro is an unusual name Pres is it short for Heroford
It was as soon as I scrolled down and read the text.
ok, thanks FM :)
No sandy... just Herro!
and our mrP used to lay her tiny head upon his broad shoulder and whisper: "Oh Herro, my hero!"
Sprite, you have such a romantic mind
good lord sprite! it was his pet hate being called hero... he would go all incredible hulk if people 'abused' his last name... it was 'incredible' to watch LOL
*waits for mrP to slap her*
*giggles* "Do not make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I am angry."
LOL! very much so
is that a pic of herro on your icon Pres?
this grid is going to be a bit of a sl4/6 today
ok, the word is that clues didn't come up cause something went wrong.... will try again
I have to admit I like this grid so far, FM
24 left here, after two or three extensive breaks
on ya josh
down to 20 and slowly picking away at the last part.
Oh I am enjoying it too but haven't found it's flow yet.
... presuming it has one :)
it has, FM, lol
you guys should go and play Serpentine - its a fast version of this and very competitive -you can play a few games then leave
not for me. I am not competitive at all, I so enjoy the teamwork here and the relaxed atmosphere.
Thats why i love this game, but the other is fun for a break-especially when you are so slow like me-
One online addiction is enough for me!
I have 2 and that is more than enough, lol
oh and sudoku too
i have a couple too, all extremely different to one another too
runescape is my other one.
I saw an item on the news saying computors keep you brain functioning and oldies should play these games and surt the web to stave off Alzeimhers
my brother in law use to play runescape but has move on to world of warcraft
That's my excuse and i'm sticking to it- I am not addicted
ha! the ro5&ro6 eluded me... gotcha
Clues are up
yeah, I think that is true. And even though I am not altogether Alzheimer age yet, I have had many years that should count double. So I am eligible for having to play, right?
should have checked my icon, mrP :)
thanks lickety :)
your welcome ;-)
Thanks lickety
thank you lickety
Hi lickety nice to see you!
hey all - just popping by - chores to do now - need to feed the family
i think this grid would be easier if I got my glasses, it's all a bit blurred at the moment
mrp has done it all week - it's my turn!
good man lickety :-)
Hello all :) I just wiped out the top row in 2 secs flat wooohoooo!!!!
Morning Liz!
wtg Liz! I have to change my icon now to go6.
FM :)
been on for half an hour and still haven't done top row! Hi Liz
hi KAtie - I normally struggle with words like those so I'm only bragging coz things went my way monkey style this morning :)
All well with you Liz?
Right i have hit half way I'm off to work, see you all later :-)
yes thanks FM - off to Jersey for a week from Monday. How are you?
Bye Katie have a good day

Glad to hear it FM *hugs* yes its a half term treat for the kids
ok, yet another icon clue from me.
hey! My daughter is in the grid :))
hello, daughter of Liz's!
just found me5/16, thought that was a proper name too
same here, FM!
oh for goodness sakes the ye5 is nasty as
hello Mrp :))
hi liz :)
bye for now , nikki is going to have a turn
bye sandy, hi nikki
surely that me5 is a proper noun???
It's used as a descriptive word too if you check out the def.
Liz: second meaning: (often lowercase) any place that many people visit or hope to visit
Well I never knew that!
all the things we learn from babble!
:)
*decides not to change icon to clue for so6/30*
task only have one 6 so far a c. Breakfast time I think brb
enjoy, FM
hi sprite-hi all
Bye FM
hiya nikki
I'm struggling with the y's today

I am off, you all have a great day and/or a nice night. And wtg Liz!
bye sprite, nice to see you today :)
I'm off too. I have the 'joy' of running playschool this morning
morning all.....clue please for the LAST do5/18 please?
take the do4 above and add the sometimes vowel flask
thanx MrP.....and how are you keeping??
keeping up appearances flask :))
how about you?
och am well thanks......just get ready for winter to arrive....lol.....I do follow you progress thro' the various chats going on....:-)
thanks hun... and how ready do you have to get for winter?
to be honest with you our winters here are very mild now....compare to when I was a 'slip of a girl'......
but this year we seem to have gone from summer straight into winter....and kinda bypassed autumn!!
that happened here too flask. weirdo weather abound
yep......seems to be!
am actually waiting to move into a brand new house...so thats something nice for me...
oh yummy! nothing like living in a brand new home
I hope.....lolol!
well that what I think too!!
is your son moving with you too?
the actual house is up....just needs to finished off and the thro' road built!
hi folks
Oh yes MrP....no show without Punch!!...lol
Hi June!
lol! great

Don't be fooled by the size June!
june, when I look back at the words... very nice, but finding them... sufferance
oh oh did i miss something
Back from breakfast, let the search begin again.
hi Ermintrude :) hi all :)
hope you gassed up your tank well FM... high octane
hi ata :))
19 left from a quick spell earlier
Oh yes, ready to finish this now, taking no prisoners MrP. Morning Ata *grin*
Sily's in the grid, FM, hence the icon!
i should go find an icon befitting the grid... brb
yea, I spotted her as soon as I looked in that corner :)
yay for Sily cat :)
Tad chilly here this morning but it's going to be a glorious day, can't wait to get out in it in a couple of hours.
Think i am going to buy a freezer today.
I've been out and come back in lol
ooo! ice cream storage!
LOL trust you, I was thinking a tad more practically but there is always ro4 for ice cream.
only thinking of that cos I had ice cream for breakfast! Got a temperature *again*, stupid colds, I only ever wnat to eat ice cream when have temp
Awe pooor Ata :(
Ha ha have found the so6 that sprite must have been referring to.
there are 2 very similar :)
yes got them both
the dreaded 14 left. including 4 6s. gah!
Are you at home this w/e Ata? Think you need a bit of down time to recharge your batteries.
yes, thank goodness!
AND next weekend!
go4!
very go4!
I say I am doing well not typing grid words in the log ... so far :)
you are! very impressed
It won't last.
indubitably
clued up for friday clue day
<-------- newly released from her kennel and I say good morning/evening.
lol Morning Haz and Spangle
does Glitterata have a mad 5 minutes on release?
She makes a charge for the utility room, and waits expectantly for her morning treat.
Not that she ever gets any treats. What am I saying?
awwwwww
oh bugger, I forgot. I actually fed the brats again this morning
Yes, that spoonful of gruel hits the spot.
A whole spoonful - Haz you will be spoiling her next!
You didn't feed them again? Not after we had talked about the folly of feeding?
a light-up tiara? *sporfles*
I know, I know. I forgot. I was half asleep. I'll put a big sign up tomorrow reminding me not to
Nice icon MrP but I got that word already, sigh
A teaspoon of gruel, not a tablespoon. That would be spoiling.
Ditto on the icon, mrp! A nice bit of culture.
any excuse to get leonardo up
You see, that shows how old I am. He just seems so young to me.
oh what am I saying ...
I hate that lo5 / 6 combo
*stares at grid*
slang isn't supposed to be here ata... i agree
and anyway, that is the name of a blowfly here in aus
I don't like any of the words with that ending. there's a few and they are all silly
Not the alcohol ending, then, because you like it.
oh yes, that's a good ending
only because I love the word polyol
So, is it pronounced poly - ol. Or pol yol?
poly-ol
That's what I thought but it's good to check so that I don't make people laugh when next I include it in conversation.
very sensible Haz, would hate to be pulled up over that!
its just such a nice sounding word
Husband once laughed at me when I pronounced corticosteroid wrongly. I was typing something for him and asked about it. Cue gales of laughter.
well! how could you possibly pronounce that wrong? outrageous! :)
scientists of all kind are a nightmare for long complicated words and giggling at people over them
What always amazes me is that he can spell long fancy drug names etc but struggles with normal words.
yay mistyped the ye4 and it took as the ye5, thanks monkeys profoundly.
they are just soooo burned into you. I can spell Tetragonolepis and Acentrophorus without a blink simply because I've typed them thousands of times
ooooo *looks for ye5*
Can you imagine what scientific names must look like in German?
I sheet of A4 paper per word probably
that's the joy of the binomial system, they have to use Latin names too :P Not much help for vets though :)
*puzzling* how can you misspell the ye4 to turn it into a 5
FMitch has special talent.
use the tile value ye5/20
*waits for the light bulb moment*
ohhh. wow.
cd
lol
ye5 - sounds like a particularly strong disapproving statement.
hey all
that's quite a special word
that's quite a special word
Morning bf
Good morning bf.

Thanks

Morning rep
If we had an a instead of that i we could have gondola along with the Venetian rulers...
Good morning rep.

hey Haz

Hey FMitch
It's morning for us, evening for the other side of the world.
good evening here reparteena... :))
it is a fhek of a word too sog
evening mr
Use the sometimes vowel for that f word.
ahh, trial and error! got it on the third attempt
I understand why our language gets trashed by many other languages... so many bastardizations of words
I think it's a case of English being ready to accept any words that save us from dreaming up our own.
even worse haz, is the grammatic rules, bugger the spelling errors/acceptances
I certainly wouldn't like to be trying to learn English.
la la la I can't find the g6
You'd find one at a christening of a baby boy.
ohhhh ty
found the anag of Atas cat :)
You're welcome.
me too
firebirds!
Congratulations!
Congrats Ata!
Hello all - Congrats Ata!
ty for that last one, silverclaw!
and fm for mentioning it!
Hello lynxxx
Yippee Ata! Hey lynxxx...
It won't take lyme. Those ticks haven't got a hope.
hi lynxx :)
Good evening lynxxx.
we only accept west nile here ...
the ticks might not be in luck but there is a flea in the grid
We need extra bio-security.
brb i need tea. anyone want a cup?
ooo yes please
half decaf with equal and skim please
Is that the ch7, FM?
It's okay, got it.
sorry Haz was not looking at the screen for a mo.
It's one of those cases of having the words and not really knowing what they mean.
*hands out tea*
and there are rather a lot of those today
Thanks Ata :)
Mr Guevara might assist in clues today.....
and the canine species too
<--------- Spangle is a singular example.
and bottoms. As was discovered earlier
yay for spangle :)
Indeed.
and Silverclaw really is a clue. I like that
oh I wish you guys could watch fast forward with me!
too bloody wrong!
Is George Clooney in it?
hang on... I can find it on youtube... it is a collection of skits
it is a parody of goldfinger
good morning Babblers :)
morning Nono
Down to 25 which seems a good point to break for a while. Hi Nono
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXu1yGU ZImo
Good morning Nono.
See you later, FM. I'll be heading off soon as well.
Think I will head on out as the buliders have started up again downstairs. Happy Babbling.
hi Nono

Booooo to the builders!

fireworks for me and so goodbye dear friends "poof"
she'll shift the blame somehow
bye & congrats Sandy
it's clearly FM's fault
I'm such a go5, didn't even see the birds that hissed at Stew yesterday
they hissed at Stew!!?
poor Stew!
the father one, was with his mate and 6 offspring so understandable.
did Stew investigate rather too closely?
No, we were a good 10 yards away - and they were in the pond. I didn't go too close, as they were very large and I know they can be aggressive. Would have been excellent eating though!
oh yes!
a swan hissed at Hobbit yesterday, too. twas obviously a hissing day!
Good morning everyone.
time for work - have a nice day babblers!
hi Elder. Haven't seen you for a while, has the back improved a bit more?
Hello Lynxx, a little thank you.I was hoping to return to work, but not possible as yet. How are you ?.
bye Repartee
Hello rep.
Oh, bye rep.
I'm good Elder. That must seem slow to you, back pain is so debilitating...is it what the doctor/s expected?
yes, He did not expect the great improvement that I did, sadly.
But I have further procedure due soon. Keeping all fingers crossed and desperately hoping this will make all the difference.
Fingers crossed here for you too. When is that due?
This seems a tricky grid today.
beginning of November.
Thank you.
its quite fun, lots of similarly built words
Um.. ok, will press on.. :)
morning, all.
Hello Angel.
hi Angel
G'd morning Babblers!
Faeriekae called me last night. she has had a difficult summer.
morning ladies:)
Hello LoriP. are you starting or returning to complete.
Hello Cross.
morning Lori & Crossy
G'd morning cross
Angel, I thought I had not seen her for a long time.Hope all works out well.
Just getting started elder. Angel, I hope things turn around for faerie
her mother has not been doing well. She broke her collar bone and broke her hip, so she will need to go into a rehab today. Faerie has been ill herself, from so much stress.
Well, tell Faerie she is missed, and lots of good things from me to her.
Oh, poor lass,what a worry and it does take it's toil. Perhaps if you are in contact with her soon, send her best wishes.
I was just so relieved to finally hear from her. we talked for at least two hours.
hi lorianna!
hello Ata.
It's a bird. it's a plane. no. It's ata Hari!
my cat is a clue today *smug*
:)
hi elder :)
Is shed in the grid? :p
she is! and an anagram of her is a word!!
my least favorite word is also in the grid;(
makes my hair fall out
Ata, I hope it is not the so'6
nasty stuff
Cross, its nasty.
lol! no :D
name that proper noun! french airport
TY Elder - my last 3 S's

gondor!
Orly
Essex !
Name the show Spike Millagen, Harry Secombe & Peter Sellars was in

hello Hursh, and Fuq.
I know lol
BBL
Morning all!
howdy fuq
Bye for now Lynxx.
very tolkieny grid today. Gondor, Orlyando Bloom, and Mount do**
Hello everyone.
and the phantom word "mordor"
Just here for a few minutes. Leaving Albuquerque this morning to go home to NC, but -- very exciting -- going for a balloon ride first!
Hello Scrabbs. are you sleeping better.
oh wow!
hi scrabs!
morning scrabbs!:)
orlyando, lol
Wow, how exciting, fuqua! Enjoy!
Ah, yes I remember, enjoy. Fuq.
i went on one fuq..its amazing..so quiet and peacfull;)
once you get over your fear of death:é
darn typos
Cross, crumbs!
It's one of those things on my "bucket list" that I've been wanting to do forever. I was supposed to go on Tuesday, but got rained out, so this is my last chance on this trip, at least.
i want to go but without some stranger - i need to get my own balloon
So, now to shower and pack. I'll wave to you all from the air! Bye!
crumbs...0_o.....
my question mark has gone to the dogs....ÉÉÉÉ
Bye Fuq,
There is a company that does ballon rides out here in the country and in the summer they float over my development in the woods and on to the big park next to us where they land. I wave to people and once a guy asked me, "Do you have any Grey Poupon?"
name that proper noun! worf's father
qu'est ce que Grey Poupon?
lol
got to go hose down this mass of muscle and get to work.have a good day ladies and scrabbs,give those bunnies a kiss for me....poof!
it's a mustard that used to have these commercials where people would ask random strangers "pardon me, do you have any grey poupon?"
Bye Crossy
I see!!
They balloon ride all over the cost line and countryside where I am.The sights must be wonderful.
Bye Cross.
ata have you got that you can be somewhat like the mt. in mordor?
I finished hours ago :)
ah
do I look smug?
definitely
go4 :D
my cat is a clue, by the way. she is an anagram
hmm none of my anagram attempts are working
its a stupid anagram
ooh got it
isnt that an odd word!
yes
its the currency of Guinea, apparently!
you'd think they could just be sensible and use guineas...
you would. that was my last word
what's the top D?
dh4/10
ty
Please post word hints I don't have! ***Thanks in advance***
there are some ineresting words today
clearly!
the one I found most problematic was go6/27
***That's better***
*bows*
*eyes the apple pie lori's making*
***glances frequently at oven***
*loves apple pie*
Mm, apple pie. I would like vanilla ice cream on top please, Lori.
why did you have to put gondor in my head, now it's all i can see for a go6
found it, thanks. ***continues staring at oven***
sorry hurshy! the same thing happened to me, if that's any consolation
The c's were weird. You can't have THIS pie, but I'll make another later on for sharing.
mmmm yay!
TY, Lori.
did I tell you, Lori, that when I flew home from Oregon, I waited to go to sleep till we'd flown over you so I could wave down at you and Uni :D
That's our Ata, selfless. :D
got it!
but we did fly almost exactly over you. I was happy
yay hurshy!
No doubt. We're in the flight path for overseas destinations. Too abd you weren't laying over in halifax. I'd have drove in, only a few hours drive.
I know *sigh* next time I can always try and find an obscure flight that goes via halifax :D
Right corner A?
No such luck. there's Halifax, on the East Coast, and most times you have to fly to toronto for overseas flights. So logical.....
It's a way of getting someone's attentyion Scrabble
*clears throat*
Politely, of course. :)
ah4, I found it, TY!
Not my usual method of slapping them upside the head. :p
stupid flights!
I was staying on the right side and didn't go diagonally to the left...duh. Slam me with a fish. Or, I could claim a subtherapeutic caffeine level.
lori - what a horrible icon!!! LOLOL
though flights from Portland to the UK go through the strangest places. Not the normal US connections. Last time I came back via Frankfurt in Germany. I've been via Vancouver, Salt Lake City, Los Angeles, somewhere in Texas. You name it!
Hello Kje.
**checking Lori's icon**
I laughed out loud at LoriP's icon.
I find it all quite random Ata. :D @ kje
hi elder
it's remarkably random. so you never know!
By the way, g'd morning kje
hi lori
Haha, Lori. reminds me of my father when the 4 of us were little and crying/whining about something or other. he would say, "Stop your crying or I'll really give you something to cry about."
Hi kje
*now pondering if it represents a word from the grid*
hi scrab
No connection to the grid whatsoever.
ke4/10 maybe
lol, possibly!
its just funny :)
how many SN's are there?
4 sn's
Kje, beer holders.
4
There. All the stoopid little letters done.
ty

There are 3 after the 'elk' like animal that had me perplexed for a while.

No need to run - that was exactly what I thought esp as I typed the pl in and forgot the singular!!
LOL
LOL :)
I felt mo6/21 then too
feel like a mo5 because i can't monkey the upper C that has 2 words
I think they are the ce5/12 and 6/21(pl) if that helps
ce5/12, ce6/21
good morning all, looks like an terrible grid
TY Mitch

Hi pero - Its good - except for the last 8
It's an intersting one peri, not so easy but fun none the less.
just started and not liking it so far
pero? Peri!
ce - rude or boorish
who me? what did I say?
It is spelled nowadays with chu**
What's that top F about?
it actually means a free man in Anglo-Saxon times, the word chu** word works, but only in that meaning, not the boorish one
fy4.10
It's a babblet that uses the sometime vowel f4/10
TY
help with both A's please

and red
do you have the grid fleas though?!
1/2 exactly
grid fleas?
I have holes in my ankles from those buggers from years ago
wtg peri I could not think of a clue
Unfortunately, the dog has some real fleas. I am still having trouble eradicating them from him. entirely.
awww poor teulu. poor you!
its better than before, so we are progressing.
teulu is a trooper, and his hair is returning from the places where it left, so I guess its better.
I can send you some!!!
you can give to your hubby ata.
woohooo! actually, he's shut up about them recently, thank goodness!
awe you are so giving red *grin*
I am a real giver aren't I.
HAve you killed the orchid yet Ata?
pretty much LOL!
tsk!
Actually I am trying to think of a way to do some sort of holiday giving that will have a big impact, given our economy. and I have no good ideas.
I don't even think it was a proper orchid, just some orchid flowers stuck into some of that weird green stuff
hard to keep that alive ata...
Funny you should mention that red I am thinking similar thoughts.
yeah .... I don't feel traumatised about it. I normally hate letting plants die, but this one is impossible
As $ is tight the only thing ican think of is giving my time somewhere.
Maybe we babblers all need to participate in a global thing.
time is the best gift of all....
you can all buy one of my breast cancer or MS ribbon prints :D
time and or knowledge/experience.
LOL ata!!!
Ok I am annoyed. I changed my icon, and it wont change no matter how much I refresh. anyone seeing my icon clue?
$20 and all proceeds to charity :)
hello everyone
red, I see pizza
GM annie!!!
Oh go4 heavens I now have someone banging nails or something in the apartment above me, that coupled with the builders below ... argh!!

morning to you too, red
Hello Annie :)
*red to the PB please*
I'm thinking of making sets of notelets / cards too - what do you think, FM? with the charity ribbon designs
Hi FM, you are surrounded by sounds of hell
Uh Oh.
Driving me nut this week on and off since Tuesday :((
bbl to finish
*putting chocolates and macadamia nuts in the PB*
can't find the ch6/7 combo, and my monkeys are tired
TY annie, I have not had breakfast yet, just coffee.
Nice idea Ata but not sure about the market
NM, monkeys just found it, and have now collapsed
nor me, but I could print them out as an order came in, so I wouldn't have to get any stock
i'm off to work, bye all...
ch6=ch+ to thing alot about yourself is to have an inflated *** + vowel
OK I am officially stuck at 11 to find *big sigh*
thats to think!!
better than 55 FM!
I must go work on my list.
of things to do not words that is!!
yea right red ;)
awww i've just noticed I have a doggy at my feet, fast asleep
LOL my brain is so babble tuned I thought - take out a g and a vowel for a 5/20 and dont forget the pl
I'm so glad you finally got to meet her, fm!
loool
So am I se is soooooo lovely
she chased next do4's cat up a tree earlier. her day was complete!

BRB
mornin babblers!
Morning EvaN!
she's not so smug now, I've just booked her into the vet for her anal glands :P
hi evan!
im sensing that todays grid isnt very forgiving...
it's lovely
Thank you so much for sharing that Ata. It tests you but is definately doable for a seasoned babbler like yourelf EvaN
I thought you needed to know :P
i dont feel so seasoned, lately, FM -- work keeps me so busy these days, that i only get to pop in in the morning + maybe poke my head in again in the afternoon -- i havent finished a grid in ages, it seems!
OK I give in - a clue please for the 3rd lo5/14 but none of that sounds like or snake chair stuff ;)
ok ... snake snake chair cat dog fork!
Enjoy it anyway EvaN, it has it's ebbs and flows.
sounds like the sun king :)
lol
or a pig call
oh! lmao. I just did a sounds like. You said no sounds like, but I think that one is ok?
thanks Ata -- that clue gave me 3 words. :)
*groan* there I go being a mo5 again
loool I hate those words, they are soooo stupid
they all rhyme with the names of Scrooge McDucks nephews. ;)
so, which word next? :D
Oh the shame of it all
I am missing the 3rd lo4/6
*not laughing*
i have 52 words so far...not a terrible start...
big sticks
Go4 clue there EvaN!
FM...lo ....brits truck minus a cons
Ok that just proves why I never ask for clues 'cos they are soooooo fish worthy ARHGGGGG
see I can't even spell ARGH properly *bursts into tears*
ok, next! this is fun
*wipes FM's face and gives her a chocolate* there, there
No way - I did this once about a month ago with Haz and she chortled for days. No more clue requests from me!!! *grin*
awwwwww!
*sniff sniff* thank you Annie

Oh go on then for the sake of the greater go4 as I know there will be babblers out there wanting the words I am missing .....
I am missing 2 x r and 6 x d
hurray!
the double O's are in half the words today
Hi Sharon
ro5/10?
ro5/16?
lol yes to ro5/10 but the other is the 2nd ro5/12
Heya mitch
2nd ro5/12 - musical term I think. ends in a vowel
Isn't it interesting that after you have babbled with a group of people over al long time you can anticipate wich words it is they might be missing.
yep! hurshy and I can normally tell which words each other are missing
Yes I can with you and hurshy too
:D:D
hi all
Os?
What about the ro5/10?
urf that's tricksy to clue. many kangaroos, with a vowel on the end

ata! what are you trying to say LOL
5 left and I will leave that for later, bye, dear babblers
*pesting lol
ATA is the other beast bugging you?
good bye, annie! see you later!
yep
Bye Annie.
At least she didn't eat your biscuit
Later Annie
she doesnt like biscuits
:)
My damn friends cat breaks into bags to get food. I think they are either little monkeys or hungry (i am not amused as it was chocolate cream)
Silverclaw is Delicate adn Refined
Where as my little monster wouldn't dream of eating of benches or plates (unless its curried sausage)
Silverclaw might occasionally deign to take a small piece of fish or cream from your hand if you give some to her. Otherwise she just has her own food. And doesn't seem to want any more
sorry back again, computer crashed as soon as I got online
Ata do you think its a hungry thing?
Hi again Katie
'till recently mine were very good but there seems to be more stealing going on in the last few weeks.
no. more like a being-a-little-sod thing
LOL Ata........I really relate to that
I told my friend that it was her biscuit they ate. They are like Rumple Teaser and Mungo Jerry
Ruby gave a little trill to check we were looking then snatched chicken skin off the plate and made a run for it. It's hard not to laugh but she was in trouble, no treat and no fuss for the day
*sings* Mungojerry and Rumpleteazer, they're a notorious couple of cats*
where's Vi when we need her
They are. One sets it up and the other opens it.
awwww! little brat!
Like one will bat it off onto the floor and then the other secures it from the dog and they both go for it
a friend's cat gets into packets of crisps and eats them. she was once discovered inside a big bag, looking innocent
I wouldn't mind it is the little F U look she shoots over her shoulder :-)
absolutely!
the "screw you! I've got xyz!" look
Lol Ata we must be doing something wrong. I wouldn't mind but Mari's cats are always trying to steal and I used to brag about mine, talk about pride coming before a fall, they even ate weight watchers sausages last week
Yep. I totally forgot and came back inside and busted them. Im like doh, idiot. The second biscuit is slightly gnawed. I will still eat it. I am lucky my cat doesn't do stuff like that (other than the mime meow)
mine doesnt steal *smug*
yeah right
actually *thinks* I really don't think she's ever stolen food. Feathers on the other hand ...
Is Feathers your bird?
Mine doesn't steal either. Apart from the one time i left curry sausage in a bowl on the floor as a left over for ages. OH Feathers Ata cute. mine goes nuts over Cotton buds
Silverclaw is obsessed - and I mean really obsessed - with feathers. I buy her packs from the local Hobbycraft. She can sniff them out in their plastic wraps, and she'll rip the plastic open and run off with the feathers
Maybe it's a good job you don't have a bird.
oh yes! I've put sealed packs of feathers on my topmost book shelf before that is physically impossible for anything to get to, and she's been there 2 minutes later
OH Cute
Or a duck down quilt ;-)
Ata the Fridge or a cupboard is your only hiding spot.
You cat would go nuts over my feathered couch cushions or my down duvet
loool yes, katie
actually cushions are ok. they aren't proper feathers, according to Sily. don't ask.
Ruby is obsessed with leaves, she brought her first one of the autumn the other day, if it's like last year we will be Knee deep in them all autumn/winter
Oh so she is into pretty feathers then? She has taste
awwwwwww
Thats cause they are Crinkly Katie
peacock feathers are her favourite
OH Ata she would have been in heaven when my best friend (now gone) b.f had a mate that had a Peacock farm.
ohhh she would! she doesn't get peacock feathers very often as hobbit tends to crunch them, and they are expensive
Ata you need a kind person that is willing to sponsor her addiction to Peacock Feathers (someone that has a farm)
yep, but I haven't found one of those yet!
she always has a peacock feather for her birthday and christmas though
awwww.
well i have to depart. I have to get up early to take cat to vet to get her nails clipped and she needs her worming tablets
crumble is now lying on my arm, bettergo
Oh sweet Katie
bye herin and katie!
....as this will be impossible yo do

Katie: so = grass plus m** & dad
go6 please
so5 pig call
Thank you for all the clues I have them all now :-)
Don't have the go6 yet Jax, sorry
found it thanks
Hi briefly folks! Walter in bed, tiger costume made for upcoming early Halloween party (they don't really do it here, we have st. Martin'snacht instead, but someone' hosting one), wine poured. Who can clue the blasted ce's?
go6 is a fish!
Or for that matter the go6.
Well, slap me with a scrod but I need it!
add to the go4 prior opp of off
only got the 4 letter one monkey and don't know how to clue it, do you have it before I try and find one?
I have zero ce's.
ce+either **+ consonant
hi all then pl
Thank you!!!
yvw
hi bethn, good clue.. .I was still struggling with how to clue that!
ce+ **ll me on the phone later
go6 builds off previous go4
scrod - lol - funny word
hi niamh! awful combination of letters isn't it?
I know, I know. Is indeed.
Looking for go6...
very strange word bethn, very strange... but aren't we all?
add opp of Off to go4 previous
you hold him when he gets christened
You're right, total fish. Beat me with a hake. And thank you!
Raised with a long line of agnostice but still get the clue...
pb MG!
after I finish slapping myself...took me a long time to find that one
AHHHHHH! You're right. Well, I'll take this merlot in with me.
PB now serving fishcakes for all
did you bring enough to share?
Those crispy Indonesian ones?
is the me a fish too?
no, the go** ole' newfie kind
Wish I could make those. Husband will not eat anything with more than four legs or efwer than two.
seafood allergy here, i hate it when i get fished-I am always waiting to alpse into anaphalaxis (sp)
no leggers are the best!
Plapse
Picture those cheesy goldfish crackers instead. We'll make an exception in a medical needs case.
*** lapse
No-leggers are good.... You should try kibbeling.
I love seafood, but my husband's like yours Monkey- no sense of adventure!
?? Not heard of that MG.
i wish lickety could come up with a program that would type what i mean instead of what i hit...
Oh mine has a sense of adventure-- when the ethical opportunity came up we even ate lion. But he draws the line at more than 4 or fewer than 2.
Goldfish crackers Krysten? they are cheddar falvored fish shaped crackers...very small...eat them by the handful
Kibbeling is small pices of fresh cod covered in Dutch batter and deep fried, served with a creamy garlic sauce. I cannot eat it right now because I am trying to lose another 45 pounds (already five down on top of the previous 14!)
hello all - good gracious monkeygames I live in Africa and have never even seen lion on offer
lion, that's brave! mine wouldn't, steak and potatoes... he even complains about deer or buffalo- too "gamy"
love venison cooked right, not gamy at all
The San Diego Wild Animal Park has a deal with Ramona Meats. Whatever dies naturally can be sold there. Must have been a heck of an old lion. Bleah.
goldfish crackers...had them...kibbeling sounds good. Had something similar...used cod tongues...yum!
so I take it you wouldn't recommend the lion then Monkey! lol
i wish we had sound on chog ... I have a baby parrot on my shoulder doing monkey and chicken imitations.. it is like living on a farm in africa
besides venison which i did not like the "wildest" i have eaten is shark which frankly tastes like fishy chicken also bleah
Then a friend brought whale from Iceland recently-- we are completely, totally against whaling but it had already been done, sold, and transported so it dodn't contribute to evil to accept the dinner invitation. Plus I penalized myself by trying the Icelandic delicacy well-rotted shark. Could smell it through the glass.
I made some venison jerky a while back, he thought it was soooo great, I never told him it wasn't beef
Springbok (farmed now in Germany) is YUMMMY... but don't expect to be able to eat much. We are talking WAY richer than venison.
I have seen it make on tv MG , really eeewwwy
Indeed. But the whale tasted like a really excellent steak that had been left in a bag with a mackerel too long. Very dichotomous.
I've had snake, rabbit, bear, moose, buffalo, deer, shark, frogs, eel...
Not had the snake nor the moose.... Wild boar, now that is something I could eat every day.
You made me smile MG big howdy dee doo here about changing the name of the SA rugby team from Springbok to something less apartheid era - wonder if the politicians know they also come from Germany now
Why is Sprinbgbok apartheid? It's just a local (yummy) animal...
Do wish we had chosen the giraffe instead of the lion though. The only carniovores I have ever found tasty have been fish... like barracuda, now that's tasty...
The SA Team has been called Springbok for years and years and is deemed not politically correct - the name not the animal
Hmmm. Methinks some people may be trying too hard. Well, whatever, switch to cheetahs or something.
any clues needed before i run?
me... I need the me clue
Me too.
the direction muslims pray to
Now HOW is that not a proper noun???
thank you! I swear I tried that!
Cat is trying to vie with laptop for attention. Now that we know the mass is benign she can just ait her turn.
YW! i guess a place can be a me*** as well....a shopping me***
Wait, not ait...
i was happy to read she is ok mg
OK, I accept it.
the springboks will always be the springboks!
:)
You stand by your convictions! Personally can't give a crap about mainstream sport zeal... but you just stand up for how you feel!
yes Ata hopefully the politicians will get over it
And I'm not saying I don't stick a Dutch flag on the cargo trike during the world cup...
Does seem much ado about nothing to me. Let them keep the name.
I have got 121 words now, and I just can't finde the rest, any clues for last so14?
pig call miu
Husband just got a letter from Mark Pinske! What fun.
Quite an issue here MG all street names relating to colonial history etc being wiped and we got new street names - some 20+ letters long so i suppose springboks had to become an issue as well
???
bad enough the cricket team is the Proteas now. Its so wussy :)
Frank Zappa's sound engineer. One of Walter's middle names is Zappa-- that's what you get when the father needs to register the birth and report the name choice.
sh, I can understand the basic idea just fine. Great. But sometimes things go a bit far....
OMG.... my kids names would have been bubba and ogleo
Why???
and one's a girl
Would the girl be bubba or ogleo? And just what IS an ogleo?
found it, thanks
ogleo was acharacter in a video i think it was "me and my arrow" and he just liked bubba for sheer orneriness. The girl would have been bubba :(
Ata seems "Protea" is the name of choice and the rugby team should be "King Proteas" thank heavens there isnt a "Queen" protea - imagine a rugby team called the queens
I have a dog named Bubba. It's not our fault, though, he came to us that way
Oh that oglio!!!! From the album "The Point"!!!! I grew up with the album and graphic insert for it....
oh my ....! yes, thank goodness for that!!
AS as 27 year old speech pathologist, she has no idea how much she owes me
And we promptly re-named him "Bubba Ho-Tep"
thats the one mg!
There IS a Queen Protea, a friend just gave me seeds and a growing kit...
No kidding, Beth!
oh lord monkeygames - please dont tell anyone
zappa is sounding better and better isnt it?
nooooooo!
I just found out I was nearly named Saskia. That was our choice if Walter had been a girl... now it's the dog.
I won't, Ursh. I won't.
is it a family name?
Does anyone play scrabulous (not the facebook one) now lexulous??
Zappa? No. Husband is a Zappateer, in admin on the site actually. Goes to the Zappanale every year. But it is a traditional name in Sicily, where half his ancestors are from...
not me ursh
i meant saskia:)
all I need now is g27 and second ro12, any help?
Saskia? No. Just a noice name, and very Dutch... making it odd mom thought about it.
quite a nice scrabble site if anyone interested www.lexulous.com
I've had nothing brilliant to add to the conversation for a while now, but I didn't want to leave without saying goodbye.. so bye all!
g27 you hold him at his christening
ro4 pl
Bye Niamh of the hilarious icon!
see you niamh
Thanks for g27

i have a ro5/12 to do with music ro+cons+marriage vow i **
or r*** & juliet
i'm missing an l4, l5 and l6... i don't know the point values..... ARRGGHH!!!!!
We are moving our son for the 3rd time in 4 mos tomorrow : (. Husband is going to have a coronary
hiya everyone!!!!!
Hey there!
do you have brit for truck?
Hi!
Moving how, Beth? New apartment type moving? Why so often?
btehn, you gave clues for first and third r12, it1s the second one I need
Brit for truck has a double consoinant. This one's a brush-tongued parrot.
miusen try my clue at 1.05
yep, thanks Monkey and bethn
i'm bulloxed i think.
He graduated from univ. in May. we moved him into nyc in july. there was a fire on the roof of his apt. building a month ago . the city found massive code and zoning violations so they gave all the tenants i day to quit the premises. they could only remove their clothing. we moved him home.. Now he has another apt so we must go empty old one and move him innto new one
I didnt know if anyone would recognize the bird...friends have one, they are projectile poopers :( must eat special nectars very messy
Thanks Ursh, that was my last word, finished for the second time ever
woo hoo miusen!
yay miusen well done
Yes, correct about the bird's... ummm.. habits. I have worked extensively with parrots.
we have a cape parrot very sweet
evening all
MAN OH MAN about son's adventures. Hope he can get a chance to settle now.
enormous beak and head
I have noparrots now, but we have two feral macaws (oops, three now) that are the subject of intense study. Third generation. They fly over my deck every dayor two.
I hope so, that child has given me all my grey hairs. He didn't tell me about fire till he was evicted
they have adapted to the weather in winter?
I keep expecting them to come try to eat my chilis... caught a jackdaw doing that yesterday. These are rare, nowhere-cultivated Nepalese chilis so now I have a bird net up.
they usually love hot and spicy so that is a really good idea
Yes and no, thus the study. The cold seems not to bother them but they need help getting food in winter. The study ois to explore this as a way of teaching species to live in the wild without them taking over where they are.
Unlike the Indian Ringneck Parakeets, which are doin gjust fine without extra feeding and breeding like crazy. They are the result of a 1930's pet store fire.
was this thru school MG? NYC has a large population of Quaker parrots (parakeets) they are going great guns..
They are illegal to own in New Jersey they (the birds) are seemingly unaware that they are not allowed here.
No, it's not my study although as soon as I saw them fly over I found the website about them and am in regular contact with the peoplr studying them. The quakers where you are are on the site, and teh conures in SF. I am a frequent nest guard, because people keep stealing the offspring.
Yes, like tha Javanese Rice Bird flocks in Illinois... they do not seem aware that they are also illegal.
Check out cityparrots.org
ook at the section on scarlet macaws, and you will see Toos and Nape, our ones.
phew!!... got the l4, the l5 is never going to happen but could i get a clue to the l6??? please??
Hi everyone (popping back in) I have a small favor to ask.
they are really beautiful birds. I can imagine it must be very tempting for some to grab one and run.. Poor birds though
think of phonetic sp of Frenck king
l5 is the singular
Well, the life of a pet parrot (an expensive one, that is) tends to not be so bad. But these are a rare species and we're down to two-- twenty years ago when they absconded from the children's petting zoo there were 20or so.
I mena three. We haven't seenlast year's baby in a while but he did grow up wild.
We think he.
given the conversation... you 2 might enjoy the movie "The Parrots of Telegraph Hill" - documentary about the wild parrot population in SF - interesting
oh dear lord!.... we got it all...... thanks for all your help!!
if the owners dont decide that a macaw is too much bird for them ...our rescues are loaded with birds that were impulse buys
yw!
Yes, excellent documentary! Mygrandfather gave it to me last year. Walter was so entranced with it! Me too.
hi kje ! it is a g*** one
Yes, that's true. But to me an impulse buy to the tne of $1700 plus and THEN giving up on your commitment is a BAsic Sin....
What are people THINKING????
OK, just hit fireworks, so see you all later - enjoy your evenings
woo Hoo kje!
Scarlets, I admit, do tend to get aggressive at adolescence...
Congrats kje!
ye Kje!
Anyway, must go now. Have fun all!
I agree MG. But check aout craigs list etc..there are always people on there looking to trade large parrots for Flat screens, dogs etc
see you soon MG
Hope so! *poof*
any one else need help befor i go?
hiya babblers

Hey redturtle - was checking your profile to look at clue - saw your thing about Wilma - I got her autograph years ago when I was a High School track athlete. And THANKS for the vote
CadFan, I voted for Jesse!!
My Dad was a bg fan of hers too, he also got to meet her...
I should probably update my page.
I am fighting the feeling of sloth.
I tried - it is only updated when I don't use babble expert
so before you go to sleep, can you clue me lo 6/24 please red?
I dont think I have it. Nancy.
I agree, Florida weather is great today and I am stuck at work for another hour.....booo

Thanks Peri!
it is great, the weather, I just keep napping...well, I did get a bunch done this morning.
help with O words please, don't have any
All for me tonight. It is early but we spent the day walking through Wells in Somerset. What a treasure the cathedral is.
Lo6 is plural --LO5 sounds like one of Donald ducks nephews
there is only one lo 6/24 to my knowledge
od 4 - smell
and an anagram of the smell
sheesh, thanks ylleria
and then plural of the anagram
lo6 is a plural, rhymes w/ the pig call
ty yll.
yw
I just wasn't sure what starting pair Nancy.
thanks all, have everything now and fireworks
yahooo nan!!
ty for the O's ylleria
yay nancy. enjoy that low humidity, we are getting they say a cold front....I wonderif this means I should wear long sleeves.
no problem, peri
yes, thank heavens a cold front is coming. If it wasn't for those fronts from the north, we would be blistering all year round. I need to be home weeding the garden but alas....
I should be preparing for this coming week, but n o....I am watching the Ellen show, napping...reading, thinking about dinner.
the cold front has come through here. wearing a sweat shirt today, short sleeves just a few days ago.
fireworks here
who is on Ellen?
Kenny Chesny, NICOLE RICHEY (YUGH) oops caps. and uh....
someone else.
NM then, ty red
27 left, bbl
well, florida does that to ya, makes ya (Sarah Palin anyone?) laid back. After many years of running around the north, I could never figure out why people down here move so slow. Well, after a few summers I found out., too hot to move fast.
Oh I think Biden is also on, how could I forget that!
ya has been the new you since Palin arrived.....
Congrats Nancy & vwteach!
I wil not make any comment on the grounds that it might incriminate me.
oh I have learned to not discuss politics around work.....but I am voting for the man with one house.
biden is on ellen?
damn, i am at work
I'm not entirely sure kje, I have been napping.
right now is doing a peice on the repugnant overt racism the red-neck fringe are throwing around this political race
nicole richey is spouting on now.
what the heck is that icon pic red?
on CNN
a clue for go 5. ooooey go5 pizza.
eeewww - looks really greasy as well as go5... not go5 in a good way
hmmm, thinking... what is go5 and good
My Mom sent me a great email this morning about what if the credentials were reversed on the candidates...its was super and very instructive.
shoot
pecan logs.
nice cheesy omelets.
caramel and chocolate in any combo
british toffee pudding... which is actually dates... that might do it for me
the presidents aura....
caramel.....yumm...
Pug, which president?
the president of some other country?
in a go4 way, pug?
go4 is not a word I'd ever use for "W"
maybe she means the pres of spain...
Now I am very hungry.
just the go5/18 part
maybe some fruit.
go5 in a go4 way is fudge nut brownies
I should do something. other than looking for words.
nah, don't be silly...
famous refrain of the Babble addicted Red
Somebody drop a pin please?
LOL pug... way way way too true...
*ping*
I think there should be a 12 step program
step1 - admitting you have a problem
thak you guys thought I'd scared you all off!
nah, just struggling with my last 17 :s
step 2 - a greater power (dr god?) can restore our ability to abstain from babble
Who wants a 12 step program> I don't have a Babble problem LOL
step 3 - doing a moral inventory?
cd failed step one... shaking head in despair
sorry dear ! I say step 2 is a crock!
i have [atients like you cad
yes pug... it is dr god that got us into this - LOLOL
step 4 - blaming FM for all our problems
they only things that would make me abstain from Babble is lack of internet or coma
oops should be learning NOT to blame FM>>>
I have patients like you too pugster - LOLOL
right down to the coma... but the other half is usually death, not internet
we can always blame the "spoon feed me' twins!
step 5 - learning not to answer every call for a clue?
i would fail that one, i like cluing... makes me think a bit
AMEN sister! Testify!
step 6 - making amends to all those we have offended in babble : )
sheesh - my list is too long!!! would never be able to do step 6 either
us? offend? NEVER!
well,maybe a little...
grrr - just found my 2 missing R's - soo easy (ro5.12 & 6.21)
took me a long time on those too lynxx... may be a sad reflection on my love life - LOL
those illuded me to the end Lynxx still always think of those as Proper Noun(s)
*checks list* I'm missing 2 r's, and don't have an r 6 21 so I guess I'm maybe missing boths of those - clue please? *looks hopeful*
oooppps eluded even
where for art thou
aaaaah, got it - thanks pugmama :)
Juliets lover
step 7 - learning to live a new life with a new code of babble-free behavior
and ty, lynxxx
15 to go
(i think i skipped some, cuz all i have left is 10)
kje you've surely been sampling the meds!~
Babble free behavior is just, well, UNTHINKABLE!
clue for the top D please
who would want to be babble free???
dh4.10
dh 4/10
hi Wild
ty
dh + a y** is a hairy bovine
hi lynxxx hi e1
step 10 - helping others who suffer from the same addiction
don't we all already do that? ;)
what does the 7 start with??
I'm pretty sure wild and pug are enablers and will never make it to step 10
there"s a hopeless cause!
lol
ch6.30 & 7.44
ch7, wildcat
ylleria... don't think it means to help them be addicted... but help them get free - LOLOL
ch7
ty
you have to be more specific, kje ;)
spoken like a true addict yleeria
the blind leading the blind...
of course... could just accept that we have a problem and decide to live our lives addicted
I can admit it
could also (ala Foxworthy) create a "you know you're a babble-addict when..."
it beats most other addictions I know of!
oooh that would be fun kj
I'm ok with that too
i do find babble can have a slightly unfortunate effect on my relationship with my boyfriend...
oops
it's cheap,legal & doesn't ruin your health!
unless he decides to play too
now THAT is a true sign of addiction... interferring with life : )
you go 1st then, wild.... you know you're a babble addict when...
you know you're a babble addict when you don't spell words, you clue them
I have no time for a boyfriend! It would interfere with Babble time. How would I explain an addiction to a word search game?
you go scrabs!
morning...
well, if he will suggest words that start from the bottom row of the grid, when I haven't worked my way down that far yet... he should know better ;)
ooops...afternoon all
good one wild
really
hi pini
your turn kj
hi pini!
you know you're a babble addict when... you use the aord anoa in a sentence
i'm to tell you that boyfriends can be useful
hehe
word, not aord
so he says, anyway ;)
you're turn pugster
you know you're a babble addict when the only typing you can do is all misspelled
LOL - ouch
when you start calling annoying people trolls & tell them "oh go clue yourself!"
I do it too lol
LOL pug
you know you're a babble addict when.... you count yellow tiles at night instead of sheep
..when you use Babblets in Scrabble games; when you get an answer in a crossword because of what you learned in Babble; when you tell your everyday face-to-face friends that you have friends named: Grey Woulf, Groovy Kiwi, lil*monkey, Monkey Games, pugmama, wildcat, ylleria, kje, torgone, Nutter, Sprite.....haha
hahahaha
lol scrqabbs
LOLOL
... when you know your computer better than you know your dog
OK, have to interview a fellowship candidate... must stop grinning
bbl
when your definition of a bad day means licketys list is down...
When I do something goofy I say, "Scrabbler! You doofus!"
good one
LOL, pugmama, how true
Yes, pugmama!!
LOLOL pug - you guys are FUNNY!!!
... when you can't go to bed until you finish the grid
poof
...when you say, "Just 1 more word...just 1 more...." and 20 minutes later you are still staring at the grid.
and your computer chair maintains your ass print perpetually
*nodnod* yep, did that last night, wildcat
guilty here too
so it fits like a glove
...and your ass has the print of the chair seat on it...
11 to go and I'm struggling :s
I'm at 12

we're having brekkie for dinner tongiht
yes, scrab.... that was a hilarious episode
What is the S word that Ata said was an anagram of her cat. The cat is Sil something.
sounds lovely monkey... cozy
I love doing that, lil*
cats name is sily i think
Seinfeld episodes are timelessly funny, because they are silly and about NOTHING.
Hey kje, good song there.
cat is silverclaw....
OK, I get the anagram now.
good cold weather thang... flapjacks and pig guts for dinner
I dont think I do. :(
Yes, OK, I got the si4 and was reminded of the cat's name.
we're having poached eggies too
you make it sound sooo tasteful, kje
you had me until poached... and egg
kje, you actual tx location is showing. I had breaded chicken potato, and fruit, but I am lacking moo juice.
i try pini
mmmmmm pig guts
23 left and no list, but I don't know what I need.
We had a big, incredible spread for the luncheon aftre Mary's funeral.
TY for the reminder of why I am a vegetarian, k-jee
I was always curious why there is always such a spread after a funeral
Was it a good serviceScrabbler?
anytime scrab (said while munching serano and fig)
Its just the way we are kje, stuff ourselves instead of dealing with emotions.
Yes, a wonderful Mass, then we went to the cemetery, then the exclusive Buffalo Club.
I think I'm losing it....I keep hearing "I am Siamese if you please" I think that is from The King and I, eh?
* lagging behind in finding words * taking breath * diving back in with precision Triple Triple *
And that is exactly what I did, rth.
gapeach...run to the nearest psych eval situation.
(that's from Disney's The Aristocats)
Thanks.
kajee, serrano and fig ???
it is from dalmations, isn't it?
I pigged out on the fruit--raspberries, blueberries, honeydew, and mutant blackberries the size of plums.
why isn't "roly" a word? As in roly poly
serano wrapped around quartered fig
nice scrabbler.
gapeach, we can do group therapy together. Maybe they will let us do Babble!
"rolly poley"
seems like there should be cream cheese in there somewhere, kajee
What is serano?
serano being a spanish ham.... I brought some over the border with me, so please do not tell the customs agents
oh i thought you meant serrano chile
ugh - no cream cheese.... manchego!
I tried roly twice. And I was twice rejected.
kje it is ok. I imagine its possible to get serrano in the gastric capital of the world.
Thanks Red...I think that would be a good thing for me.
fresh figs, not dried
*looking up U.S. Customs Officials in yellow pages*
try it again scrab!
actually that silly song is from Lady & the Tramp
shooting monkey with my long range missile
yes!!!! that was it pug!!!
has anyone seen either A flash of Genius or The ernie Davis story???
was it, Pug? (at least I was close with Disney!)
Rejected a third time...geez, k-jee, I wondered if I had typed it in wrong and it realy WAS a word. I took your bait. **bonking self upside the head**
hey! *ducks behind Super Missile Deflector Shield*
my kids owned it an watched it ad nauseum
Gotcha hearing it too, ehh Pug?
LOLOLO - seriously, scrab... do you NOT know me???
I wait til movies are on DVD--I now have National Treasure #2, Like Water for Chocolate, and The Ninth Gate.
no just have many Disney classics permanently ingrained in my mind
I own about 34 disney animated movies...and the dau that is the genius of them isn't here right now
I am supposed to be studying for a big test so have nothing.
I am gullible, kje--I trust people.
Don't worry, scrabs...I foolishly took the bait, too
*temporarily foiled by the shield... will await an unanticipated strike*
me too.
scrabbs!((()))
My daughter says she learned the classics from Bugs Bunny. Oh well.

why would you want to?
refresh, ewaugh?
we will be there after 4pm

At Mary's service today, her 17 yr old niece played Amazing Grace on the French Horn. It was beautiful. I love that sound.
Hi DR. 4 am is horrible.
i tried that, and exiting the browser... hm i'll figure somethin out i guess
Darth wants my son to play the french horn
Why do you want to clear the list, ewaugh?
Hi Red!
click after & backspace & uncheck box
Its a pretty looking instrument.
if you're using 2 of the same brower to see grid and lickety's...try closing all browsers and reopening...
ewaugh..try clearing the cookies off your computer
4 AM call times ARE horrible, because you haveto get the 14 year old "Sleeping Beauty" up at 3 to get ready to go!
somehow i ended up putting a word in twice and i think i did it a couple times bc my babble says i have 109 words then lickety says i have like 111 or something.. i dunno what i did : /
haha
LOL Dan! absolutely sleeping beauty... how is his hair so shiny
OK, I am indeed going to re walk the dog, as he is not acting correctly.
OH no does darth have the siny hair???
Go4 luck with him red.
I get up at 4 each and every day for work. I do dislike it.
I am NOT a morning person.
Now walking dog, dont tease me scrabbler, you know I have that go** word!!!

Darth has shiny clean hair
Uno

ro4/4 is fish eggs
se4/6 is a type of palm tree

Did you agree with the winner?
I would have been happy if Korto won, though.
Did you see that Christian from last season was busting Leanne on how boring she is...
I liked Leanne's collection but wondered about the waves on Every piece.
I did see it, Leann was sort of drab but the clothes could have had color and been just as ncie.
Kortos collection was good, just less tailored.
2nd ro5/12?
They are all strong competitors. I missed Kenley getting dismissed, want to see that.
It wasnt as dramatic as expected, I think as soon as she saw tim gunn as the guest judge she knew her go*** was cooked.
ro + wo**er w*man
2nd ro5 is a plural
oops that s the 3rd
with what does the 7 letter word begin?
*should have used caps Wo**er W*man

hi, all
ty pug ty red
ch6-ch+ stuck up or ***tistical + vowel
hi Pam!
Pamster!!!!! Hello Pam, how are you feeling?
odd ch, lol
hi pug and red!
How are you, red?
Jessmom, i thought it was super, especially after Kenley had been so rude to him and about him for the entire time...plus he is always so on target. I wish I could be on his other show.
I know what you mean, but I'm a lost cause fashion-wise.
yo4/7
I am OK, very bored without the gym...
I've thought that if anyone nominated me for What Not to Wear, I'd just say no.
evens and ***s sort of Pinik...with a y at the beginning and one less cons.
yo+ at casinos the **ds are against you
yo4 is like the no4 head movement
when can you resume workouts, red?
I would so do it jess...
don,t understand your hint for ch6 pug
Tues or wednesday pam...so I expect it to be an interesting weekend. the hip still hurts though...so no eagerness to hurt it more.
clue for yo 4/9
I have sinus issues again and have to meet my new Primary doc next wed... if i have to start at ground zero, I will SCREAM the scream heard round the world
jessmom, i want to be on What Not to Wear, mainly to find out from experts what colors/fashions are good for me
red, you icon won't load for me--what is it a pic of?
Make him a little print.
ch6--ch+ vowel+ my kid **** to school every day
My icon is Pizza a clue for go5.
Oh, I am sorry the pain is still there.....
what do you mean, "start at gound zero" Pam ?
lol, red
thats the 7 actually
its a lot better, now I am feelinng the injection point...and it is probably all in my head.
1 !!!
I always "feel" the injection point, LOLOLOL
but don,t understand it
ch7 ch*ddar + comes and ****
it was a totally different clue don't know what you want
Oh, I was finally "diagnosed" with chronic sinusitis in the early 90s . Never knew it, lil, as I thought I was breathing--the rear sinuses are the ones that are blocked. They found a cyst in one sinus, and then figured out a way to stop the headaches--the only clue I;d had that there was a problem
So, when the pain is there, I know to start flonase and a decongestant (as opposed to the daily prescription decongestant I had been prescribed by a different doc for years) and I have something for the sinus migraines
ch + bacon & **gs + *v*r & under
If I have to get another CT scan, and etc, I will KILL someone. All I want is a prescription for Flonase and the pain med, which I have NEVER abused or even used all of the refills of...
but what do you mean, start at ground zero?
sorry you asked, Lil?
meaning at the beginning, lil
oh sorry, typed my comment before i got the last part of your story
i don't see why your new MD wouldn't just give the Rx
pam, have you ever tried nasal irrigation with saline
not the spray but the one where you inhale the salt water?
I irrigate daily, ping, and hi
I have a deviated septum and a dysfunctional eustaschian tube, too
my friend Brenda (also with chronic sinusitis) uses a "netty pot" (not sure of spelling)
Yes, I use a neti pot
hi!
Astelin works well for me but tastes like crap.i call it ass-tastin'
yes, that helps me a lot
what is astelin?
and heat on the eustacian area of the neck under the ears
its a n RX nasal spray
I love heat, ping!
LOL!
big plans for the weekend, pam?
/e sighs
Dr. perscribed it for me after having surgery to open sinuses as to drain more effectively because of lifelong sinusitis
fireworks!
Pam, did you have your records sent from the old doc...not that the new doc will look carefully, but it mighthelp.
wtg

ok...off to work on a new project...
Hi hurshy, I have an email for you regarding politics...
bye pini!
i'm too angery for politics right now
it was hysterical forme anyway, and you may have already seen it.
ciao, pini
Uh oh, please dont be angry.
but what do you highlight

bye pinger
to which of my addies, red? gmail or verizon?
nvm, it landed
wow so fast the techno world is...
LOL
it is interesting isnt it pam??
Indeed it is...
ce4 please
but clearly slanted towards my guy...
Good , because our guy has lost some traction in the polls... don't understand it, unless it's the ACORN investigation...
I expected some, people are getting used to the economic crisis and are thinking it is not affecting them...
that makes sense, red
I have not seen polls lately.
you can't under-estimate the # of ignorant racists out there either quite sadly
But the ads that McCain is running in Fl are not very convincing.
pam are you from france?
i saw a note on cnn about the polls
USA today says NC is too close to call and that FL is Obama territory. I predict that NC will go Obama and Florida will go McCain...but I could be surprised.
sorry to talk abtou politics, but I can not restrain myself.
I might have to go to list.
Thanks for the update
BBL poof
wow...first time I've ever gotten all the A words without the clue list (I know there are only 2 - shhhhh)
Lady is doing a great job...GO Lady go.
LOL... thanks, red!
hello all, I am very tired and about to take a little nap... got to 69 earlier.
Hi all
stid, I read that wrong... I was going to say "wow, lucky you!"
(((((jill)))))
hi jillie
do5,18 pls?
hi stid -- I found myself napping as I babbled a little while ago, lol!
rofl... fun, jill!
Hello Jilli and Stidd.
ewaugh -- do5/18 rhymes with unhappy
I napped today but I think it was avoidance of studying...
I cannot figure what that ch5,16 is
I just nodded off periodically -- ususual for me!
nice icon clue jilli...
me too, red! But I am also exhausted. Woke up at 5 and going constantly until about 20 minutes ago
you feeling okay, jilli?
LadyN: cancer treatment
natts, you wouldn't want that cancer treatment
thank you, stid!
and thank you too, jilli :)
stid beat me to the clue :(
okay, halfway, and nap is here. back later all!
s'alright... are you feeling okay, jilli?
I'm fine, thanks, natts, but I guess the last few days have been a bit stressful, what with the cataract op and all
ttfn, stiddy
have a nice nap, stid!
red, what are you studying for?
ah... I have been out of touch the last little while; didn't realize what you were going through.
and natts -- what is your icon? A clue? If so, for what letters?
hi, stid, natt, jilli, and all who recently signed in
No :( I haven't changed my icon in a long time. Or my profile.
hi pam :)
Hiya pam
not a big deal, natts, and worth it!
the usual testing pam, beginning of contract, always makes me nerous.
got it, thank you jilli
red, I saw your good news yesterday I think -- you needn't be nervous, I'm sure!
oh, i didn't realize there was pressure on you, sorry and I know that you will do well... what news did I miss yesterday?
that's good, ewaugh -- thought maybe it was a bit too subtle ;)
I just looked, jilli, and it's an awesome clue.
now can someone clue me the ch6 and 7?
fireworks! : )
news?
I have no news.
YAY ewaugh!!!
yahoo ewaugh! congrats!
oh, maybe I misread jilli's note...
ch6 and 7 is the one about Ch* Gueverra doesn't come, but ****
No , maybe I had news I was unaware of, these things happen to me often!
ch + self + vowel for the 6, pl for the 7
lol
ty ewaugh... odd word...
this one is for pam... http://urlPass.com/3tst
yes it is, yw
or, for the 7, Mr Guevara proceeds
beaten to the punch yet again :(
hi nutster :)
sorry that you got beat out again, jilli... one of my very best online friends took the screen name of ch* guevera... so that made sense to me.
now, I have 5 to go...
hiya jiller
go jilli!!
Nut, that was HILARIOUS
clues for the first 3 so words would be welcome :)
i knew you would love it
Jilli biblical city of badness...amd builds off.
You were right, nut!
eeps... checked to see if I could clue the first three so words... I have NONE of the so words!
ty natts
Ok 13 left, I am going to list because I am annoyed.
I guess I should be embarrassed that I launched the list at 40 words remaining.
that's fab, red, getting so far minus list -- I can't do that
I go to the list when I get to NBT -- if it's there, lol
I dont like the list. but I get a lot of clues from chat.
What is NBT???
No Blank Tiles
oooh.
i am finding i am missing several plurals feel silly
We all have our own ways of working this puzzle :)
I know that feeling well, red ;)
jilli...did you get your so clues?
boy, those ye words are self-descriptive!
yes, thanks, fungi :)
good
and greetings, O Old One (fake)!
fun guy to the pB...
how did the surgery go Jilli?
hi everyone
Me? Old? *g*....somewhere between 15 and 78
Sis boom bah! Firewords!
hi ruru
yay!!!
finishing up, ruru? or come to gloat...
hi lady...
gloat... I never gloat...
I am done though
ruru, it went just fine and the world is really sharp now :)
wow.. great jilli...now you can laugh at my jokes...
bllllttt, ruru >:-P
ROFL
10 left, turns out the list is not that great help today for me!
it sort of helps.. but not a lot on certain ch words
askaway, red -- someone will beat me to the clue, lol
(is that gloating?)
red, the ch words have been clued quite recently
8 left, trying to not be a clue hog, like some...
glad the surgery was successful, jilli
I have the C's...
HEY PAMMO! hi
are you talking about me, red?
red, ch7/44 is Mr Guevara proceeds. The 6 is the singular
hi, ruru
oh -- any other help needed, red?
No lady I am not talking about you!!!
not at all!!!
7 left
I am quite worried about Madonna...
how is she going to live on 275 million...?
with all those children now...
why Ruru, I think she can take care of self.
pam, I was blaming my monitor for the blurred letters. Now they're perfectly clear :)
LOLOLOLOL, rurur
go4 thing you didn't buy a new monitor
Jill, I can't say anything is ever really clear for me--I love my new-ish glasses, but my vision stinks....
Poor Madonna. And I feel so sorry for those CEOs who have turned the word upside down
SHe may have to sell one of her homes...
hint for the lo5,14 immediately after the building toy, Lincoln **** ????
the wold, I mean
quite so, jilli, quite so.
I know what you mean jilli... I mean they had to cancel a second weekend of spa treatments in Half Moon Bay
rhymes with the pig call monkey.
TY red!
thanks for that, red... didn't have it
"thought that was come here big fella"
I'm not helping much am I?
ruru to the PB now...
anyone ever notice that FOX who preaches the most on supposed family values, has the raciest network TV programming?
its a PB party and I am only encouraging it because I spent a lot of time there today.
ruru, your mere presence is a help to our senses of the ridiculous :)
gee, why is ruru in the PB? what word am I missing?
FUnG, have you ever noticed that "Family Values" are often used tojustify racist/bigoted/sexist attitudes?? etc.
..wow.. that is so deep Jilli...
Half Mo** bay pam.
yep! classic!
ooops
oh, that--have that word, LOL, thanks red
***off to the PB *** grumbles ***
family values also usually mean Christian, and many of us, here on this planet, are not Christians....
Its really unfortunate.
Is there anything to drink here?..opens frig
I need help with SN 5 and 6 combo?
How about SP's conservative family values and the early birth of her first kid and the unwed daughter's...
I left chocolate milk RURU, but I shall get some Oregon wines.
those Christians ruin it for the REAL Christians, too
sn + most of sheep fur
they do, fUg!
Hear hear, fungi!
This is true Funguy....If you actually try to live a life with Jesus as an example, you find suddenly it is a difficult life to toe the line.
ruru thanks! you may exit the PB, though I have a good merlot coming.
Jilli, there are great videos of Karl Rove, et al excoriating Britney Spears's parents for her sister's pregnancy at age 17. Now, the same blokes are saying it's the child not the parent...
Well, that is because when you are really a great parent you convince your kids to practice abstinence jilli
c'monna my house, ruru -- vodka, scotch, rye, rum, you name it, but sorry, no bourbon
Jesus was a communist, who treated all as equals and did not judge even a prostitiute...
wink wine
help! tell the new guy (me) what the PB is.
penalty box for uttering a word in the grid, fun
Penalty Box for dropping words...it is loaded with goodies and a spa and apparently cabana boys but I never see the boys.
the pb is pergatory for the people who accidently chat a word in the chat log
penalty box, FunGuy... where you go when you type a word from the grid in the chat box
Penalty Box or Sin Bin, for posting a grid word inthe chat.
that is because monkey ate them
i spend a lot of time in there.
ahhhhhh! I'll pass on the bys...is there such a thing as cabana girls???
I have a special table
with a plaque and everything
Masseuse?
cabana boys? ooo, must post lotsa words....
there is coffee.
hmmmm...that might work *s*
I would spend a lot of time in there, if I accepted its premise, LOLOLOL
THe FOx network.. makes me a bit ill
only a bit, ruru?
I have to hang my TV really far to the left just to balance it when I am watchin Fox news
I avoid the fox network -- we get some of their stuff on Canadian channels -- mostly junk
O occasionally check FOX "News"...but only out of morbid curiosity!
I used to enjoy to watch the CBC news Jilli, a different perspective.
I watch Bones and some Fox shows. But NOT the news....
2 left.
Bones?
I am going to try to get excited about top chef now that Project runway is completed.
read an article by a former CNN writer who said that the American CNN news is really weak compared to what they send out world-wide
3 left
racing lady N!!
yep, a forensic anthropologist is the protagonist, ruru based on the Kathy Reichs books that I have never read
I agree fun
CBC news is really good and balanced -- CTV is good too. I'm a junkie and watch CNN and BBC too.
*** holding finish line tape ****
You would love my hubby, jilli... he's a newshound too, but mostly a newspaper addict.
oh..is it a sitcom?
I have gone to some of CNN's international sites....
lome
I am a total newspaper addict
hello again. Between the kdis and the dog, no sleep. *tired mama look*
ok, fun, I'll stop calling you mushrooms :) It was kje who started it anyway
that is almost a PB offense there Funguy.. that is how you do it though.
I used to be, rurur
STIDDYYYYYY!!!!!...***backflips & Cartwheels***
clue for ye5,20 please?
aww... so sorry, stidma... finish the grid and you'll feel better :) Welcome back!
add a double cons to previous monkey
*triple-flip somersault splits!*
jilli...you can call me anything! I will always answer *s*
*** break out robes to cover up split pants ***
hows trix stiddy...besides sleepy
well, I read the papers too -- the local Victoria Times-Colonist and the SaltSpring Driftwood, then online the Montreal Gazette and NY Times, plus CNN
whoot! fireworks for me! and only just a little late, as hubby came home 15 minutes ago and has been waiting for us to go make dinner together.
ruru...was trying to make lome into an acronym (let me ot...something) but wasn't fast enough *lol*
ruru ? ye5,20 is the FIRST ye word... so there isn't a previous
clue for the last And fireworks for me too, a close second to Lady Natts!!!!
woohoo for lady
I am proud of myself today carlee, I was feeling overwhelmed all week by my class so today I reached out to get reassurance from two teachers at the school I volunteer at. They say I should stick with it and I will be a good teacher.
YAY LadyN!
I read all the NYC papers growing up, as well as the Philly Inquirer and the Washington Post when i could get them... Now, I read the Sunday NYT and Globe hard copies and search a whole slew of papers on line....
stid you will be a great teacher.
YAY natts!!!
Shall I admit to not reading the newspaper.
woohoo for u stiddy...
GREAT, stid!!!!!!
LOLOL, red....
thanks red, I hope so. I know that I won't "reach" all the kids, but I do manage to help some, and that is the point.
( pam...why we devouring so many papers )
Stid -- you ARE a teacher -- you're constantly teaching your kids, can't help yourself! You teach us too!
I have a HUGE need to know, Carlee
thank you, thank you, thank you all! I would love to stay and clue (for those that want and ask) but it's time to go make dinner with hubby... and then... sleep! (I'm very tired)

hi jacs
hey jacula! how are you? how is mr jac?
Oh jac, I have to leave now, dammit! Howdydo
Hi lbd, carlee, stids, jilli.
Stid - Mr Jac is on the mend but not mended yet.
got the sweats again, jac? you're up awfully early
well jac, let him know people ALL OVER THE WORLD wish him well *wicked mama look*
can anybody clue the go6?
Up late, jilli. No, oddly enough it's Beloved who's getting the night sweats now. Dunno if it has to do with his surgery. He got 4 sweats to my one last night.
I keep saying I'm going to go, but I don't go
stid - I will. LOL
higher power + opp of daughter
jill isn't going to go, she is glued to the screen...
go6 is the male you promise to look after and bring up in a Christian fashion, should his parents die.
tx lbd - I even have one of those!
Big smooch to Mr Jac -- bye now
slowly being absorbed into the fabric of the web...
soon small particles of jill will begin to merge with the itty bitty packets of info that zip around the world at the speed of light...
does that include shooting moose too jacula
rofl
'Bye jilli. Watchya doin' smooching my fella? LOL
PB ruru!!!! *stern mama look*
rur? I don't get it?
Oh! *blushes* is that about 'you know what'? LOL
If so, not telling! It's personal.
I think shooting m5 refers to the vice presidential candidate from alaska?
LOL
hm. first RO 5 please?
juliet's beau
Why does my Babble page have little messages with comet tails on reading J, Ji, Jil. Jill, Jilli, i, il, ill, illi, iillj?

Up late on this occasion, Lindrick.
coming over your way in a couple of weeks Jacula
y/w, trans.
Lind - where will you be visiting?
(jac is waiting for someone to get back to bowling)
yorkshire & London Jac
Bowling? My hubby bowls in a league.
Hmm, are you Autmn? Should I wait until fresh and new after sleeping or take on your latest challenge now?
mo 5/16, any clues?
I think I'll wait. After all, it's earlier where you are than where I am, Autumn.
more of the mo4/5
hey ruru
hi lind..
I haven't accepted your challenge yet, Jac. You should be off to bed for at least a nap.
trans - like the place Cathy and Heathcliffe met in Wuthering Heights. Uses 5-point tile.
just popping in for a minute while things are getting started in the kitchen
I'll be off to bed for 8 hours' sleep, Autumn. It's the weekend!
get some good rest
jacula, tried making a plural. didn't work
ok, got that mo5!
Well, I say 8 hours' sleepm that's sleep interrupeted about every half an hour by a night sweat, and since Beloved is out in sympathy and also having them now, about every 20 mins half-awaking.
oh i know what that feels like Jac, different reasons, same timings!
Beloved is a male, not a female, btw, which is why I find it amusing.
LOL Jac!
I found keeping a hot water bottle full of cold water helps....
You have my sympathy, Lindrick. Interrupted sleep is NOT fun.
I have a magnet for you jac..
I find a cold flannel helps.
It says: "I'm still HOT... it just comes in flashes now"
Got used to it Jac after around 4 years!
ruru - I've got the magnet you put in your knickers. It doesn't do anything.
Im with you Jac , no sleep is better than sleep interuptus lol
do6, clues?
IT is a terrible disruption
Sometimes, MAMA, that is right.
ruru, you clueing do6?
Well , I guess it depends on the interuptus lOL
do6 is the plural of the southern or cartoon canine before it.
but at this point sounds like we are all in the same boat!!
get along lil do6
so there is a do5 related to do6?
Sure does, MaMa!
still need 2 do5
I am into interuptus totally...
lol
Still workiing on 5 here, just to stay up long enough to fall asleep ; )
LOL ruru
good for you haha
you tart ruru!! lol
got those do's! TY!
one more do 5!
really more sweet and sour..than tartie
LOL
there are three do 5's which one?
Interruptus is an inevitable part of failed contraception. You have kids in the house.
One day they will become human, one day they will leave.
you are hilarious Jac! lol
Isn't it past their bedtime?
do 5/16. clue me for both even tho i have one.
One can only hope Jac
hi all
t-guy you are related to MLF are you?
Not if they're 21 and 24, ruru!
It is wonderful Jac, mine have all flown! love having them home and now i love having them flown!
hey tanja!
one is hang down your head Tom do 5
the other adds a sometimes vowell to do4/6 and gloom
One day, they will leave and your sofa, stairs and kitchen table may once more be objects to further your desires. Nuff said! LOL
"hang down your head and cry"
ah .. forgeddabout it... just hang the sucker
hi - 30 to go and this grid has been painful but working on it between spring cleaning lol

Thanks, ruru. I'm sure I will if Himself doesn't fling the duvet back when I'm in a frrezing phase rather than a boiling one.
your as young as you feel Mama!
And I still have that song on a 45 rpm vinyl, from my dad's collection
dang d's are done! 6 left all s's!
bye for now
You're 3 years my junior Mama.

I bought my Beloved a tee-shirt with 'Sex God' pm the front in ASDAlast year. As the checkout girl put it through, she looked at him and said, 'Is this for YOU?' in a most sarcastic fashion.

My daughter said we should have complained about that.
Bad checkout girl, bad
Well done, trans.
LOL Jac!!
WTG Trans WOOHOO
TY, jac!
Yeah tranguy
I just thought, I was lucky and the checkout girl hadn' got a clue what she was missing.
TY, lind!
I may resort to asking for a clue in a minute
anyone need some clues?
You are so right Jac, she was probably waay to young to know the real deal
check out girls are clueless
She was. Mama.
now you are sounding like an "ist" ruru!
You're right, ruru. They are clueless.
oohh and Jac too! lol
Its so pathetic when 3 of my 4 last words are 4's....does that make me clueless too? LOL
better than an "ism"
LOL ruru
not at all Mama!
nah, that's how it always is for us.
Sorry Lindrick - but this checkout girl wasn't a teenager she was at leat 28.
often that is a teenager in girls
no worries Jac, just teasing! LOL

hi TO
Its a funny little game huh?
Well I waited until I was 27 to have my first child and then had my 2nd just before my 30th birthday. I felt secure enough and mature enought to be a Mum by then. However, both my kids (now 21 and 24) tell me I'm a 'mad' Mum, but they both love me to bits. I doubt I'll ever be a 'proper' grown-up. I hope not!
Hey TO
LOL Jac, I had mine at 17, 20 & 24!
Jac I was 29 when my girl was born
hi! blasted c words...
She's my new Babble Bud
I managed to get her hooked so we chat about it everyday, when she
shes not in class of course!!
LOL Mama, it was my daugter who got me addicted!
That was early motherhood, Lindrick, but everyone does what works for them.
my daughter introduced me to bebble too
yes Jac and I have a great relationship with all of them. I became a grandma at 34!
*babble
oh I didn't know that autumn!
WTG Lind,
cool
thanks Mama
*shhh* dont say it out loud but somedays I think about being a grama
Dont tell!!!
Incidentally, I was talking to a couple of 70-year-olds and an 8-+ year-old last week - they told me that you never know it all, you never stop being unsure, but you do gain confidence.
someone asked me if I felt old when I became a grandma, I was 34, how could I feel old!! LOL
SHe's only 19 and needs to finish school first
That was 8o+ not 8+ btw.
child of mine doesn't want babies, but her stepbrother gifted me with a grandbaby last april
LOL Mama!
I have my rent- a - babies to keep me happy for now LOL
evening -- i am stuck with one more....ch5/16, help
hi pbr, i have a ch 5/16 - cancer treatment
I'm not ready to be a granny yet, but one thin I do know - just like my own mother I do not want to be a 'nanny' - I'm not a goat!

Thank you Ping!I can stay to help with clues til I keel over from tiredness. Are you almost finished too Ping
sleep well, min - enjoy the weekend!
only 3/4 - i'll be fine, i promise!
2nd do 5 ???
do5/20 is do 4/7 plus sometimes vowel FunGuy and hi
a little cow in cowboy slang?
hi Min....sorry..it's the do5/16 that I need
fun, plural of the previous word?
The do5/16 word means a simple litter,often used to transport sick or wounded persons in India FunGuy.
I'm being so unclear! the 2nd do 5/16...there! *s*
ch 6 and 7?
ch 6/30 is ch plus Freudian term plus vowel and plural
do 5 = scooby do* + adverb ending
do 5/16 word is d + double vowel plus I am real** tired
thanks, min!
yw
Yes!!! and of course I thought I had already tried that! *sugh*
That got me too, FunGuy ... my last word - FINALLY!
Good morning, Babblers :)
wtg kath!
Congratulations Kathihle on finishing grid. Way to go
Thx Ping :)
Hello Kathihle. How new are you? Haven't seen you b4
Thx Min .. ridiculous getting up at 5am for the challenge, lol
clues for ce 5 + 6?
Min> I've been doing this for a couple of months now .. was hoping my daughter would sponsor me to become a paid member as a birthday present, but the exchange rate is scary now
ce 5/12 is ce A freeman of the lowest class in Anglo-Saxon England Ping.
ce 5/12 is ce A freeman of the lowest class in Anglo-Saxon England and plural that word for ce 6/21 Ping.
If you put definition in reverse dictionary it's #1 Ping
Is that what it means? I got that by typing silly computations of letters, hehe
hmmm
Dog just jumped up on lap. Think I'll go to bed w/him.
Goodnight to my fellow babblers!I'll see you tomorrow
Ping> Straight down and a left turn at the T junction :)
g'night Min
Good night, Min
My dog also tells me when it's bedtime
i didn't understand that clue, kath, but somehow it worked!
thanks so much!
Hello everyone - im back for my final 16!
lmao .. as long as it worked
hi there, jindigo
exactly!
Maybe you don't have T-junctions there?
Hey Ping!
Hi Jin
Hi Kath
I need clue for CH6/30 please
ch + self + zero
oops, not zero at end - 2nd vowel
Thanks Kath!
Did it work? I'm usually at the receiving end, not good at giving clues
it did- thanks
whew
yw
lo 5/14 and 6/24 please?
i don't have those Ping - sorry
I've no idea what it means but ... double vowel, then another vowel and diminutive .. sounds like English name for toilet?
thanks anyway, jin
go 6 clue please?
6/24 is the plural
erm ... the boy child you stand in for at a christening
thanks, cath
i mean Kath!!!
Thanks again Kaith
hehe .. if it works, it's cool - some say cath, some say kath .. although I'm usually called Kate
Kate is good!
Do you play babble a lot?
Far too much, lol
lol!
I was retrenched recently, so between job hunting I have to entertain myself
Kath - you give great clues!
Jindigo> I do? Thank you .. it's the first time I've been in a position to give instead of receive
3rd lo 5/14 ...down to 4 and stuck
I've just discovered that the lo 5/14 means a lieutenant .. wouldn't have thought of that because we pronounce it differently
english toilet + vowel + sometimes vowel
FunGuy> That's the one I just clued .. slang for lieutenant, apparently
Jindigo gives much better clues, lol
thanks *s*
looeys
Kath - stop it :)
darn!
hehe
ooohhh --- PB for FunGuy
hanging my head in shame!
From time spent here, I gather PB means penalty bin?
PB= penalty box / bin
two mo's to go and I'm done...if I ever get out of PB!
funguy, could you make that mistake with the YE words please?
lol
lol @ Ping
The ye words both sound as if you're refusing to eat something
*** waiting for funguy to clue so that I can finish ***
ye + **oo **oo train
ok...last mo 6/21
add an extra double cons to previous for the ye5
another way of saying yuck
mo6 depressed
hi ruru
mo plus flower
or stupid..
hi pingo
thanks ruru!
got that one...is the other before that?
anyone have a clue for the ME 5?
wait! I got it!
someone who is dumb and plural
1 to go
like president bush is a mo6
Don't think stupid comes into it .. just sulky and irritating, lol
aahh, thanks, ruru!
pres bush and dick cheney are mo6
lol ruru
pres bush is a mo 5
back and ready for the flip...hi everyone
me 5 = place in east that muslims face for prayers
ME 5/16
hey Pini!
aahhh - thanks Kath

ruru> Good thinking!
Pini...you are my inspiration!
doh! thanks again Kath
i agree with kath, ruru
mo + flower
mo6 - one is plural of mo5, other is gloomy or sulky
one is mo 6 sad the other is a plural of stupid people..that is it fun
one to go
only 94 days to go, ruru!
mo + man's name (pl)
amen.............
2nd RO 5/12 please?
Fireworks!...thanks for the help!
ro5/12 musical term
95 days 12 hours 42 minutes 15 seconds

kje...you took the day off?
yes, ping! people challenge me to either scrabble on FB or wordscraper
i wish, fungi!
*** kje has a lot of days off ***
No, fg...I did...again
I play on FB, too...
if wordscraper, feather has a board set up like scrabble, rather than those random ones
night all!
OK...Everybody...raise your hand if you're in your jammies!
*raises hand*

Thanks Kath

birds of a feather...
I might have to erase my brain after this conversation
famous for being nude? I like it! kind of 15th century sounding
If there's Scrabble on FB maybe I should join
but suspect you will kick my ass - LOL... why don't you start a table with fetaher and I...maybe fran too
i think there might be
Kathihle, are you on FB too?
yeah...WHO all is on FB?
who is fetaher?
I am , I am
autumn> No, I've never created a profile
you are mercenary but it still sounds kinda fun
damn ruru... you are just primed tonight!
*rethinks anti-FB attitude*
featherbee is another babbler
is she cheesy?
and I am half-asleep.... so that should make us about even, no?
oh then i should start the game a.s.a.p.!
you are easy pickins then..

night ping
nite Ping
well, crappin crimany...I thought I tried that! Thanks jill and kath!
hello all!
bye ping!
bye ping and hello tweek
hello tweeker
what is tomorrow's theme
yw nonnie
Ping and Tweek (sounds like an acid trip)
why do they keep calling Obama black when he's half white?
lol ru
kje, check my icon!
why do they say a color at all?
That's what I was going to say, Pini
because only Michael Jackson is white?
air... per sprite's profile.... hmmm
well, they just do
ty pini!
because Americans are very colour conscious, no matter what they say to the contrary *ducks*
Yes, everything has to be labeled all nice and neat.
This will be huge to have a black person in the white house...
kje...doesn't Monaco have a flag?
Obama is Kenyan-American
It will be huge to have someone in the White House that doesn't continue to muck things up!
thought he was Hawaiian?
How about this for trivia - in South African news reports, if the perpetrator of a crime is black, it may not be mentioned. However, if he/she is white, that's fair game
Good Morning Afternoon Evening Babblers
at least we will have someone with intelligence....
hi lore
oh ruru... found a website today you will enjoy.... use it as a dart board http://www.palinaspresident.us/
born in Hawaii of Kenyan and American-white parents
hi ruru hugs
ruru...your pic of your father's family around dust bowl times...the History channel had a documentary on the Dust Bowl a week or so ago....very interesting and some great (but very sad) pictures
hello lore
SOuth Africa is a decade behind the rest of the world...sadly
hey, i lost my flag...
Kenya is not South Africa
hi nonnie lovely to see you here
ruru> That's an improvement .. at one stage we were TWO decades behind! :)
Kenya is even worse..
no, Kenya is in the North
what was your flag supposed to be, kje?
Thanks, lore and the same to you! :)
spain?
OK, will need to move along the Mediterranean a little faster... so just brief stop in flagless monaco
hi kje no flag where did it go? lol
behind what ruru?
ruru> Have you visited SA?
no.. have friends that have family there though
where are you, kath?
no, i left spain earlier today.... took a trip up to the pyrenees and snuck across the border into france
jilli> South Africa
oooohh (envious)
LOL, kath!
ruru> oic
have made my way along the cotes d'azur (or however you spell it) and was hoping to spend a lovely night in the hotel in monaco, but apparently babble has no monaco flag
Did you go to Collioure?
oic?
oic = oh, I see :)
Kje may you get around
well, you couod google monaco and post the flag, kje
oh
