MLFAN17 United States

PAV3 United States

Hi Jilli...we'll take our time, even if it's just the two of us!

Kazozz United States

saintfranny United States

HI Tyger!

joshuavorbis Canada

ok, i got the 10

tygerbryght United States
12:48 am

I was also wondering how many people will actually finish this grid!!

jillibus Canada
12:48 am

an8 I got isn't against anything, it's before something

joshuavorbis Canada
12:48 am

there isn't a singular for the 10, for those who don't know it yet

tygerbryght United States
12:48 am

hey, pav

Kazozz United States
12:48 am

nan the other one kinda sounds like an eating disorder~!

cybernan Canada
12:48 am

tygerbryght United States
12:51 am

I just gave my first actual glance at the grid, and saw another word for flag - one of the 159 6s :P

kje United States
12:51 am

ok, now all this talk about not finishing is going to force me to do it just for the bragging rights... damn

joshuavorbis Canada
12:52 am

tyger - keep playing with that word, there are several to build to with it

jillibus Canada
12:52 am

keep building on that, tyger

Pinikula
12:52 am

Personally, I'm on a mission to finish before SOME of my mentors!!!!

tygerbryght United States
12:52 am

well, I'm certainly not going to be one of the elite few. I haven't even been touching any grid over 200 words lately

PAV3 United States

herinfernallady Australia

jillibus Canada
12:54 am

herin, that's wonderful

kje United States
12:54 am

MLFAN17 United States
12:56 am

ROTFL RURU

kje United States
12:56 am

that may be true ruru... but now I can blame it in the grid which makes me feel a little better

PAV3 United States
12:56 am

ok, I guess I'll take it my neighbor who requested it...

joshuavorbis Canada
12:57 am

it symbolizes a long journey through difficult terrain, tremendous personal challenge, and dedication to a larger struggle, with the ultimate goal not very clearly identified

rururocks United States
12:57 am

better the grid than me... lol

MLFAN17 United States
12:57 am

PAV I WANT SOME!!!!!!!!!!

jillibus Canada
12:57 am

excellent, josh!

kje United States
12:58 am

Just1Mar Canada
1:43 am

ooo thanx just got it

jillibus Canada
1:43 am

the an10 is a plural and the singular doesn't work. It describes certain winds

VolleymomDee United States
1:43 am

yes, or against exchanging goods... maybe

Pinikula
1:43 am

WOOT WOOT....just got it myself!!!

VolleymomDee United States

Just1Mar Canada

joshuavorbis Canada

Just1Mar Canada
1:48 am

jillibus Canada
1:48 am

I don't know how you all are getting so many words so fast

joshuavorbis Canada
1:48 am

hence lieutenant colonel lawrence in my icon

Just1Mar Canada

40 days and 40 nights

PAV3 United States
1:49 am

joshuavorbis Canada
1:49 am

jillibus, i am an old veteran of boggle and scramble on facebook - i am used to finding tons of words in a short period of time

jillibus Canada
1:49 am

well, slow and unsteady here....

Pinikula
1:49 am

I play those, too, josh; but, dang this grid is huge!

Just1Mar Canada

Just1Mar Canada
1:50 am

joshuavorbis Canada
1:50 am

the first 200 or so came very quickly for me - since then it's been mowing through tile by tile

Pinikula
1:50 am

what are you up to now, josh?

joshuavorbis Canada
1:51 am

just one more than i was earlier, 415

joshuavorbis Canada
1:51 am

i'm trying to stop and take a break, but it's hard

Pinikula
1:51 am

oi ... I made it to 200 without too much of a problem, but am slowing down at 240!!! :(

joshuavorbis Canada
1:52 am

somebody's gotta get fireworks in the next little while - it's not impossible, but once you get 400 in the bank it's not that far to the finish line

Just1Mar Canada
1:53 am

26 from 1/2 way which is usually my time to go to list

Pinikula
1:53 am

yeah...easier to say when you're 2/3 there!! lol

Just1Mar Canada
1:53 am

that's when it gets excrutiatingly difficult, actually lol

PAV3 United States
1:54 am

I'm at 304, and I'm dead..still missing a word from the bottom left "o" or I'd have NBT...

Uneaixoise United States

joshuavorbis Canada

joshuavorbis Canada
1:56 am

flosey Canada
1:57 am

Hugabugs Canada
1:57 am

flosey Canada
1:57 am

jillibus Canada
1:57 am

the 10 is a plural too but there is no singular for it

I never take my words to bed jilli lol

sprite Netherlands
2:14 am

she makes me smile, west. The thought of the puppy makes me happy, but that stubborn little mother as well. Isn't it brilliant? She is regular as clockwork normally, together with the other two girl dogs in the house. And now she takes her own sweet time.

jillibus Canada
2:15 am

and sprite, your mamadog-to-be looks so sweet

sprite Netherlands
2:15 am

woooooot jilli, I take back my words. That is SO fast!

sprite Netherlands
2:15 am

doesn't she just, jilli :) Such a gentle face.

jillibus Canada
2:16 am

she looks a bit sad too -- perhaps apologetic for keeping you waiting?

loredana Australia
2:16 am

Sprite Dana shes absolutely gorgeous! she will have beautiful babies

sprite Netherlands
2:17 am

lol jilli, I think she is proving she is a spaniel. The dramatic look and the mind of her own.

Atalante Scotland

sprite Netherlands
2:39 am

FMitch United Kingdom
2:42 am

sorry was reading email - portaloos are like the ones you get a ouside pop concerts.

sprite Netherlands
2:42 am

ah, I was close then, but no cigar. I thought it might be a kind of potty-chair. Thanks!

westford United States
2:42 am

I looked quickly and thought it was portholes

westford United States
2:43 am

I suppose they could be used for that too in a fix

loredana Australia
2:43 am

west good idea we wouldnt have to empty them ones

sprite Netherlands
2:43 am

an10... starts with prefix for against, or not

FMitch United Kingdom
5:28 am

why did you choose an automatic rolin?

kje United States
5:28 am

ends in plural though there is no singular form

Aloyisius United States
5:28 am

an10, and it is a plural

rolin Australia
5:29 am

i had mitch.. the arthritis in my hands/wrists was getting to the point that it was hard to change gear without pain...and i thought in an emergancy i might not react as quickly if i knew it would hurt

City 17 dweller United Kingdom

an10 = an4/4 + tr6/21 (the plural of a 5/12)

kje United States

an10 - against + to exchange for something else (plural)

NonoNanette United States

i have a culinary question for you

KatieMcG England
6:38 am

Ok

oodleberry Canada
6:38 am

do you bake much during the holidays?

KatieMcG England
6:39 am

No to be honest baking isn't my bag at all

KatieMcG England
6:39 am

Mari (my mom) bakes a lot though so if you ask your question I could see if she could help

oodleberry Canada
6:40 am

oh ok... well then what is a favorite amoung the elnglish during the holdidays... christmas and new years.. and do you have a sort of thanksgiving?

FMitch United Kingdom
6:41 am

Thanksgiving is a US celebration. We do Christmas.

KatieMcG England
6:41 am

We don't have thanksgiving but at Christmas we are very into mince pies

oodleberry Canada
6:42 am

ah ... love mince .... well thanks giving is giving thanks for the harvest... so nothing like that eh?

KatieMcG England
6:43 am

At church we have a harvest festival but it is not a public holiday and most people do not celebrate it

FMitch United Kingdom
6:43 am

We call that Harvest Festival in the UK and it is celbrated in chruches in the Autumn

FMitch United Kingdom

KatieMcG England
6:46 am

halloween used to be really low key here as well but it seems to be getting bigger, mainly because the shops are pushing it so strongly

sukee Canada
6:46 am

oodleberry Canada
6:48 am

a lot of the holidays are commercially pushed... ei : you have greeting cards for every occasion... more like a business ploy to me ... the business world takes advantage of every occasion we celebrate as consumers...

BzznBea United States

599! HOLY CARP!

KatieMcG England
6:51 am

Lol bzzn, you're not the first to say it :-)

oodleberry Canada
6:51 am

the reason I ask is I love to bake and love how others celebrate the various holidays... it would be refreshing to see that when people celebrate it they don,t incorerated the advertizing ploys of the commercial community (using that word very lightly)

periwinkle United States

Dorens
11:57 am

i honestly don't know nan. i like Obama. don't know if he'd have had it though. and i'm sure mccain wouldn't have.. and i think some of the other republicans might have been more scarier than him. not sure

ursh South Africa

cybernan Canada

Dorens
12:01 pm

lol, ruru... but the thought that he has a sense of humor helps a bit to make him less dictatorial and scary that way. and kje, i like to fool myself that palin can't be scary cause she is such a big joke

kje United States
12:02 pm

keep fooling yourself, dorens, we thought that about w... too dumb to do any real damage... and look now

Judi United States

tygerbryght United States
6:02 pm

Mary, if you want to finish, I strongly recommend using Lickety - but use the bulk add, not the little window. it takes *FOREVER* for a single word with this monster

Mary United States

MONSTER isn't the word and I thought Halloween was over

tygerbryght United States

FEather monster hello my dear

tygerbryght United States
6:10 pm

I'm giving myself another 5-10 minutes before I go back to work. doing this grid is a personal challenge. I had serious doubts whether I could finish it. I've had a tough time, usually, with any grid over 300 words, and this is twice that

DR1965 United States
6:11 pm

go tyger!

DR1965 United States

I know I wont finsih

DR1965 United States
6:12 pm

but my goal was half and I am almost there

tygerbryght United States
6:12 pm

a hint - not a clue - for those attemptin an10: be careful which way you start the "against" part. there's only one way it will work (as usual, for long words)

tygerbryght United States
6:12 pm

very good, DR

tygerbryght United States
6:13 pm

not everybody can invest the time it takes to finish a grid like this, even if they want to

featherbee United States

LOL Miles.

Scrabbler United States
8:45 pm

redturtlehead United States
8:47 pm

TOmorro will be 65 words... I bet.

herinfernallady Australia
8:47 pm

Miles i have a suggestion. White board on the fridge door. EVERTHING that goes into said fridge has to be written on the white board complete with date it went in. IE Leftover beef 14/11/09. Or say every two weeks on friday everything is going out of the fridge that looks rank

kje United States
8:48 pm

sweet dreams red

Jacula United Kingdom
8:48 pm

Maybe, red.

lbdawger United States

Jacula United Kingdom

There is no such thing as dead bread, unless it's growing penicillin. You can make bread pudding, bread and butter pudding, summer pudding, breadcrumbs to freeze for toppings etc., etc.

jillibus Canada
8:50 pm

hanging in to see the se8/40 clue (please without referring to another se word)

Pinikula

Jacula United Kingdom
8:57 pm

I saw someone saying earlier that they weren't going to do the grid but would spend the day being entertained by reading everyone's first reactions when they signed in. If I have time after a night's sleep, I might open up today's chog to do same.

milesndale
8:58 pm

can you actually hear the "d" in the mispronunciation?

pam United States
8:58 pm

lol, jac

jillibus Canada
8:58 pm

yes indeed, miles, I hear Ts very well -- Brit background

FunGuy United States
8:58 pm

Pini...are you here???

Jacula United Kingdom
8:59 pm

I've been Babbling for some years now (on and off the Internet, LOL) and it's the biggest grid I ever recall doing.

milesndale
8:59 pm

oh... I hate it when someone spells it that way. I hate bad grammar in all forms

herinfernallady Australia
8:59 pm

It is the BIGGEST grid EVER. and im wondering what the fudge i am thinking

milesndale
9:00 pm

Is it generated by some random function?

herinfernallady Australia
9:00 pm

Yes

Jacula United Kingdom
9:00 pm

Yes Miles, it is.

Pinikula
9:00 pm

I'm here....

jillibus Canada

yay miles! And I liked Baba Wawa's TwenTy TwenTy rather than Jenny Twenny.

pam United States
9:01 pm

sprite said earlier that she and ata recalled one over 600, but that had to have been a long time ago as i have been here since oct '04 and this is the largest I recall....

herinfernallady Australia
9:01 pm

Not since stats started.

milesndale
9:01 pm

haha, jilli. That woman just can't tawk right

Jacula United Kingdom

jillibus Canada
9:02 pm

I ain't never seed the like a this'n, but I'm jist a newbie, joined May 06

FunGuy United States
9:02 pm

What is the correct spelling of the word "use"...(with or without a d on the end) when used in a sentence like, "I use to go there." or "I used to go there"????

herinfernallady Australia
9:02 pm

wow.

herinfernallady Australia
9:02 pm

I am just grateful that there is an extra hour

milesndale
9:02 pm

I used to

Jacula United Kingdom
9:03 pm

The second form is correct, funguy.

jillibus Canada
9:03 pm

I used to go there, fungi

jillibus Canada
9:03 pm

I'm used to being called a fusspot too

FunGuy United States
9:03 pm

I agree, but it doesn't seem most people pronounce the d when they use it that way

milesndale
9:03 pm

I thought the extra hour was yesterday????

milesndale
9:03 pm

oh, I see what you mean, fun

herinfernallady Australia
9:04 pm

um i dont know

Jacula United Kingdom
9:04 pm

Did you type 'fungi' 'cos there wasn't mushroom. jilli? :D

milesndale
9:04 pm

yes, people are very loose with language, esp here in usa

Jacula United Kingdom
9:04 pm

We got the extra hour LAST weekend here in UK.

Pinikula
9:04 pm

they'd have to pause and practically make the same sound twice...instead "we" often just run it together.

herinfernallady Australia
9:04 pm

repeats what was i thinking

milesndale
9:04 pm

I like the UK for that very reason...

Pinikula
9:05 pm

ok...I'm dumb...what's the last ta4/4???

milesndale
9:05 pm

ppl often say it like, "I useta go there"

milesndale
9:06 pm

is it the one to do with weighing, pini?

pam United States
9:06 pm

jillibus Canada
9:07 pm

true, O King...but my granddad was a phonetician (taught philology at Columbia) and had a language school in Germany for diplomats pre WW1, considered an authority about Standard English pronunciations as shown in the English Pronouncing Dictionary -- you can thank him via his son (my uncle) for The Rain in Spain etc, lol!

kje United States
9:07 pm

ta4/4 - black gooey stuffs

Pinikula

pam United States

milesndale

LOLOLOL, jilli

FunGuy United States

I don't like text abbreviations either in sentences, but I'm fine with those such as BBL, LOL, etc.

herinfernallady Australia

herinfernallady Australia

Does she? Why?

FunGuy United States
9:12 pm

Am I he only one who feels bad that Opus is gone?

Pinikula
9:12 pm

Stuck on the te4/4 (before or after the golf stand)

milesndale
9:12 pm

IMO, too many ppl use the word "fierce" since last year's project runway

herinfernallady Australia
9:12 pm

I was very lucky i got stories written down by my Gran before she passed

nDanLia
9:13 pm

>12 & <20

Jacula United Kingdom
9:13 pm

So, what does 'fierce' mean now? Has it changed its meaning like 'gay'?

milesndale
9:13 pm

sorta. I think people are using it in place of "cool"

jillibus Canada
9:13 pm

okay, diving in to get rid of the remaining Rs...also need some dinner (bison steak, potato patty, braised celery)

Pinikula
9:14 pm

oh ok - had it but didn't put it on list - duh :(

milesndale
9:14 pm

mmmm, jilli can I come over??

pam United States
9:14 pm

fierce has a few meanings, as I recall... "hot" as in gorgeous... fierce as in fashionably stunning....

Jacula United Kingdom
9:14 pm

My stepdaughter is driving me almost mad by using the word 'dodgy' to describe just about everything from 'nervous' to 'not up to scratch'.

milesndale
9:14 pm

I had a turkey sand with hummus on cheese bread

milesndale

not as nice sounding as bison steak

herinfernallady Australia
9:15 pm

Jac they do that. How old is she?

I can't believe this. BabExp kept freezing on me. After half an hour of restarting it, etc., I'm finding which ones are missing, and entering the last 17 by hand

Pinikula

I haven't been able to use the Lickety Add in Expert at all today...must be because there are too many words... ;(

tygerbryght United States
9:38 pm

pini, you really can't use the regular little entry window, but bulk add works fine. I always use it, when I do do a grid that has more than 200 words

Pinikula

I normally do it that way, too, Tyger...but even that is slow going today... :(

tygerbryght United States

pam United States
9:48 pm

WOOOO HOOOOO, tyger!

tygerbryght United States
9:48 pm

yup, herin. I finished the words nearly an hour ago, but BabExp kept freezing on me, and I wound up having to enter the last 17 by hand

herinfernallady Australia

woot tiger

tygerbryght United States

thx, pini, et al. I really didn't know whether I could do it

tygerbryght United States
9:49 pm

after I finished my burger, I treated myself, and pigged with 2 choc chip cookies. I was only 33 away, and knew I'd be able to finish :D

pam United States

tygerbryght United States

I may go back and have another cookie. haven't made up my mind

tygerbryght United States
9:51 pm

jac, you're good. you won't have any trouble finishing, so long as you want to do it

tygerbryght United States
9:52 pm

I'm sloooow, by comparison with a bunch of you, and with me when I was younger

herinfernallady Australia
9:52 pm

Would it be just mental to do this sans list?

Jacula United Kingdom
9:52 pm

I do want to do it, tyger. I've been away on hol for a week and have been doing the grids on paper but not able to key them in. (Beloved can get the grid on hid cell phone.)

pam United States
9:53 pm

well, you impress teh hell out of me, tyger!!!!!

pam United States
9:53 pm

Wow, jac, that is babbling addiction!

Jacula United Kingdom
9:53 pm

*his cell phone.

tygerbryght United States
9:53 pm

well, you know how I think about it herin, but I try not to judge anybody else by how I do things

Uneaixoise United States
9:53 pm

herin, i didn't go to the list till I hit the last 150 or so

Pinikula
9:53 pm

listless this big? dang...you're a babble goddess!!!

pam United States
9:53 pm

I am, herin, but then, i don't use the list

herinfernallady Australia
9:54 pm

Cool

Jacula United Kingdom
9:54 pm

65 to go and I'm thinking of hitting the list.

herinfernallady Australia
9:54 pm

Since i have time (IE making time)

tygerbryght United States
9:55 pm

all of you who believe in prayer, please pray for me. I am going to have to call authorities in the morning. relatively new neighbors are beating little kids, and I can't take it any longer. even if it causes problems for me, I CANNOT take this :( :( :(

Jacula United Kingdom
9:55 pm

The thing about big grids is that they're often quicker to do than small grids, which can be hard. Big grids mean you get lots of words quickly.

herinfernallady Australia
9:55 pm

Done Tyger

tygerbryght United States
9:55 pm

you have a point, jac. but it's easy to miss some of the words in such grids, too

Pinikula
9:55 pm

why not call tonight?

Jacula United Kingdom
9:56 pm

tyger - just be sure that what you think you are hearing, if you are not actually seeing it, is what you think it is.

tygerbryght United States
9:56 pm

because I want to go direct to Child Protective Services

tygerbryght United States
9:56 pm

I think there may be more than beating involved

pam United States
9:56 pm

oh, tyger, please call! I have been there--on both sides, but more recently (18 years or so ago)where you are-.... Call.....

tygerbryght United States
9:56 pm

banging and screaming??

Pinikula
9:56 pm

wouldn't CPS take them if you called in tonight though?

tygerbryght United States
9:57 pm

and sometimes, just hiccupping screams - in the middle of the night?

Pinikula
9:57 pm

why wait?

pam United States
9:57 pm

Just call the next time you hear it... the authorities will come--esp since there are children there--and they will assess the situatioin

Jacula United Kingdom
9:57 pm

Depends what the noises comprise of, tyger.

pam United States
9:57 pm

I heard actual beatings...

tygerbryght United States
9:57 pm

I will call, pam, but I want it to be when someone will take the kids, immediately. I don't think police can do that, and MS has been cutting the budget for "services"

pam United States
9:57 pm

And, a few neighbors called... it was horrid

Jacula United Kingdom
9:57 pm

hiccoughing screams in the middle of the night might be nightmares.

bubba218 United States
9:57 pm

Finished!! This is the longest grid I have palyed and finished

Pinikula
9:58 pm

Authorities can assess the immediateness based on your account of what you hear/observe.

tygerbryght United States
9:58 pm

yay, bubba

pam United States
9:58 pm

The police can do it here, so I don't know

Pinikula
9:58 pm

wtg bubba

pam United States
9:58 pm

WOOOO HOOOO, bubba

Jacula United Kingdom
9:58 pm

actual beatings are an entirely different matter.

herinfernallady Australia
9:58 pm

D's done

herinfernallady Australia
9:58 pm

YAH BUBBA

tygerbryght United States
9:58 pm

not with loud banging, jac

Jacula United Kingdom
9:58 pm

Well done, bubba!

tygerbryght United States
9:58 pm

and it's not always in the middle of the night

bubba218 United States
9:59 pm

Clues anyone? before I go

Pinikula
9:59 pm

I'd simply call immediately upon hearing any questionable sounds...no waiting...

tygerbryght United States
9:59 pm

I live in a small town. I doubt whether they have officers who can care for the kids

Jacula United Kingdom
9:59 pm

tyger - all I am trying to say is that things are not always what they might appear to be. But, if I were you, I'd err on the side of caution if I was concerned.

tygerbryght United States
9:59 pm

like jac, I wanted to be sure what I was hearing

Pinikula
10:00 pm

They may not have officers who can, but undoubtedly have "volunteers" available for such situations...

tygerbryght United States
10:00 pm

I'm calling tomorrow

pam United States
10:00 pm

I can appreciate that. But when I was being beatne, tortured, i wish someone asked someone to check.

bubba218 United States
10:00 pm

nite all

pam United States
10:00 pm

ciao, bubba

Pinikula

10:00 pm

this is MS, and the family is black

pam United States
10:01 pm

glad you are calling , tyger

Jacula United Kingdom
10:01 pm

But, sometimes, calling in the authorities, if a family is dealing with a problem child of some kind, can cause more harm than good. What we think we are hearing is not always what our imagination tells us it is.

tygerbryght United States
10:01 pm

I have to be careful

herinfernallady Australia
10:01 pm

oh

pam United States
10:01 pm

Well, for me it was NYC, and no one believed a white jewish mother would do what she was doing...

Pinikula
10:01 pm

The authorities can keep your name annonymous ... they neighbors don't have to know.

tygerbryght United States
10:01 pm

I've listened long enough that I'm sure. I get sick to my stomach. they do it in a back bedroom. I doubt anybody but me can hear it

pam United States
10:02 pm

I know, jac, I know. I admit, my childhood has me erring on the side of calling and letting the truth sort itself out, but I understand.....

Jacula United Kingdom
10:02 pm

I don't thinks what colour a person or family is, is the issue.

Shirlockc
10:02 pm

ed6 anyone?

Pinikula
10:02 pm

"they" may not know that even you can hear it!

tygerbryght United States
10:02 pm

If I were in my bedroom, instead of the smaller BR that I use as a computer & storage room, I wouldn't hear it

herinfernallady Australia
10:02 pm

Tyger the next time they start call the police. Screw it just call them

Jacula United Kingdom
10:02 pm

Pam - I understand where you're coming from.

tygerbryght United States

I'm very much in favor of counseling, so long as people get the right therapist

pam United States
10:11 pm

Thankfully, I got one who specialized in PTSD, though I did not know I had PTSD at teh time....

tygerbryght United States
10:11 pm

I don't think it's a she doing it, and that's one reason why I've worried it's more than just beating :(

Pinikula
10:11 pm

I have a wonderful therapist...

herinfernallady Australia
10:11 pm

I had uni teachers try and step in and help but i refused. looking back i should have trusted them
