korma is 'not' a word? So, no chicken curry then!

Don't use expert, MLF, so no idea.
i have no list either just by coming in here
thanks jacula
'romany' not allowed in grid either.
I didn't, mlf
jacula, love your horse. Any particular reason?
Hi.jilli. How's Lex going? Thin it must be our turn again.
Jili - it was the 'freedom' theme for yesterday.
ah, I see, jac -- lovely.
jac, it's my turn at Lex but I just haven't had time to think!
Okay, jill.

ty hugs
hi M.Guy, haven't seen you in a while
are you done dart?
yep
good for you..
hi MGuy :)
hi flosey, been around, but usually deep in the grid.
dart, I have no idea how you can do it so quickly... your name certainly describes how you play... amazing
hi jilli.
MGuy, does Lynn not play at all any more?
and he doesn't have pro either... amazing
mousing would be better...not the best at typing...two fingers and have to look at the keys lol
i agree
amazing dart
even more amazing - and I can type 100 wrds/min
is dart an Overlord?
ruru from the tangleword/scramble games you learn combos and backward/forward words.....like stressed-desserts reward-drawer reed-deer etc...when you see one the other one is there too...dont even have to look
once in awhile she'll help me finish. she's signed on, so maybe she will play again.
Over achiever maybe.. overlord no
boggle was like that..
dart - you'd be good at playing the Honeycomb puzzle over in Quote Puzzlers
I was pretty quick in boggle.. should have played tangleword
havent seen that one yet hugs
www.quote-puzzler.com
been playing scramble a bit lately...the bigger board 5X5 and minimun 4 letter words...fun
there's 9 daily games... 7 of them are timed so you usually get through them quickly
minimum that is
NBT and halfway
yea jilli go girl go
well, I'm off ... catch you all at flip
some of us have to settle for modest achievements
ttfn hugs :)
bye hugs
I read an article in my daily newspaper yesterday about mother-in-laws. The MIL 'horrible' MIL in question had cracked soap in her guest room AND had the audacity to challenge her new Daughter-in-Law to a game og Boggle after dinner. ROFLOL.
cracked soap.. omg
my MIL thinks I am a smart ass...can you imagine that?
tsk tsk
I AM a MIL :(
LOL, ruru. Cracked soap is maybe a sign relatives don't visit often enough?
Me, too, jilli.:(
I would take either or both of you as my MIL in a heartbeat
Note aside - It seems to be taking Beloved ages to defrost car out enought to go to work.
I luv u, ruru <smooch>
We'd eat you alive ruru! *grins*
ditto
jilli - that's really scarey!
eeekkkkkk
so's what you said, jac, lol!
LOLOLOL!
your FIL isn't named Hannibal is he?
think I might scramble for a while...til I'm tired...night all
night dart
night dart.. see you tomorrow most likely
bye jilli ruru poooof
I should head out now too.. the last few grids have been keeping me up until two..lately..
good luck everyone..
Oh dear, jilli. We seem to have cleared the room!

hi, everyone.
Hey, all! I'm a little late to the party, but I do have a friend who's a direct descendant from the Donner Party. Don't want his old family recipes...
hi mix
oh yes, a donut would be lovely
no kidding froggy
just need both c's from the middle -- a 4 and a 5 - think I'll need to have a peek at the list

Hi Jilli! (Distracted by T.V.)
duh -- ty and *ta da*
yw nan
don't know why I am so blind to common words sometimes!
I've got 25 words to find now, bu need 8 hous' sleep first. Will look forward to finding them later.
I assume the cw is welsh -- will have to check it out
i'll save the delectable last 9 for tomorrow - g'night all
good night all -- have had a busy day and am ready to crash :)
night nan and jac -- I have 24 to go...
nisht josh too
that's night (time I went to bed too but I don't wanna)
I think I'm alooone!
no I am here!!
did get quiet
here as well
and the chog is acting weird here in Firefox. there were lots more posts back when I was in BabExp :P
not many posts tonight at all
I don't think it is you tyger
but I don't *like* MSIE. I understand why Lickety used it; lots of people use MSIE. they'd have trouble if he'd used Firefox or Opera
isn't it wonderful to have a nice, short grid? :D
stuck on my last 10 tho :~(
oh, sorry. is it too early for clues?
or do you prefer to tough it out for now?
not sure yet what to ask but ty... I'll holler if I start going whacky lol
as I said, I finished before coming in, since it's so short (hooray, hooray)
I'm not going to be here very long, volley
no problem
but there should be others coming in, or just keeping quiet, who can help :)
wonder where sprite is? or did she finish and leave?
true
I mean, she probably finished in about 20 mins ;)
not sure I came late
morning all
oh. well .... I do need to go have my snack & pills. I forgot about my Nexium, which has to be taken alone, so now I've got a few more minutes before I can have the food & other pills
hey, sprite. was just talking about you :)
fireworks :)
lol just came on and now I see your question, tyger... this is my normal time to start. Kids to school, mum to computer.
WTG jili hi sprite
hi tyger, hi sprite :)
yay, jilli
wtg jilli! Told you we'd be having a small grid soon!
I came back in when I saw you thought you were alone. I was busy uploading
we were drastically overdue, sprite!
got your email, jilli, will try to answer in the day ahead
yes, you did, sprite, and I'm glad you were right :)
wtg jilli 10 left here
gogogo diem :)
go, diem
no rush, tyger!
am glad too, busy day. Might be able to do this in half an hour.
this is not really too bad, given how icky small grids can be
there are some words I'm certain are made up, and the usual assortment of real words not in :sigh:
woot, K greyed out
It's mostly familiar words or babblets
I still can't believe the Welsh word
how did the icon thing go while I was away, jilli?
yes, it is, jilli. loads and loads of babblets
tyger, at least it's familiar, lol!
sprite, I emailed you about that. Not many paying attention.
not to me it wasn't. it's just that I recognize the spelling patterns of Welsh
tyger, that second letter is a vowel in welsh
yes, sprite. I know. I'm a fan of Katherine Kerr. all her alt world series have a Welsh pronunciation guide in them
long double O
IIRC
BTW, all, beware the word for the nightly pause
fireworks
been a while, and I have the last 3 books yet to get
yay, sal
YAY salmon -- long time no see!
LOL, jilli. I chuckled to see that word in here
another BCer, I see :)
I like to see Canadjuns in here, I do!
world's nicest people
of course, half my ancestry is Canadian ;)
So do I :D
my chat totally froze, hrrrr. Wtg salmoc! And tyger, so am I. Finally made me understand the strange spelling of some babblets and now I can even spot them myself, lol.
of course, tyger, lol!
right, spritey. even more distinctive than Scottish dialect
chat seems to be freezing a lot lately
funny, I haven't had that problem, but then I haven't been on a lot lately.
but of course, English speakers have been ruthlessly ransacking other languages for words for centuries
so has Dutch. I like that. Keeps a language alive.
it makes the language versatile, but it's hard on learners
people who grow up speaking nice, regular, consistent languages have a terrible time
yeah that is true. So let them try harder, *evil grin*
LOLOL
Well, I'm off to bed at a reasonable hour for a change. Night all, and happy babbling.
about time they discovered not everything is regular
nite, jilli
woot jilli, sleep well, dream even better and enjoy the victory!
the world IS untidy, fershure
it sure is
and my timer's about to go off. I was late taking my GERD pill, so I'm late to have my snack & other pills
soooo, happy babbling. nytol
don't you hate that attitude of some meds? Not only they want to be taken, but they demand so many special treatments at that!
night tyger
AND FIREWORKS !!!
wtg diem!
wtg diem... still 3 left here
Go go Dee
oh man, the sky here turned an ugly yellow/pinkish and now a huge thunderstorm starts!
ick on that sprite
yeah, very very sudden!
last night we lost our power for an hour... we think because of ice
frustrating
very ... was right in the middle of putting up Christmas decorations and tree...
oh dear, it is quite intense!
should you be on puter?
already? Argh, too early for us. Sinterklaas first, on Friday. Er no, probably not, but my time is limited today. Let'shope all goes well.
fingers crossed XXXXX
thanks :)
yw... is it winter where you are? do you have snow there?
it is still autumn here, lots of rain and wind and thunder, a bit of snow and hail.
our snow just started at Thanksgiving... can't seem to make up its mind... rain one minute; snow the next
it is the weirdest thunderstorm. Very dark, but sometimes one ray of sun peeps through. Very hard thunder.
loud I mean
I don't like thunder, but I bet the sky is beautiful; really descriptive sprite
must admit I love thunderstorms. So impressive. Such raw power. But this IS a weird one. In between the thunder it is so eerily silent!
like nature holds its breath until the next one
exactly!
finally fireworks... I miss the dumbest words
wtg Dee
ty I wanted to do without list, but ke4 missing the twisty ones
well, I must bid you adieu... off for some meds ... I hope your day is wonderful
be well Dee
you, too, dear - hugs & *poof*
morning everyone
all DONE!!!!!without chatterbox clues!
Hi Katie was just going, how are you? wtg aeb
ty and to all a Good Night!
fell over on the ice yesterday but just got a slight limp!! Mari phoned yesterday, all is well, will phone gran later
you have ice,mom said it was snowing with her yesterday. Take care driving ,hope your leg gets better
do you have to go to work?
Thanks diem, it's supposed to be OK today but snowing really badly tonight. I have the computer at home with me so will be working from home tomorrow. I am in Milton Keynes today which should be fine
ok take care,going to watch some tv. will talk later bye
Bye, day two has been sent!!
mancini puccini snicket!
tried them all hurshy ;-)
but they're proper
not according to enable :-)
LOVE IT bye
i don't mean proper in the english sense, i mean proper nouns :)
bye, love to you both
dorma is a type of window!!!!
you mean dormer?
No we definitely spell it dorma
hmmm maybe that is a brand!
sounds eminently plausible
No just checked on google we definitely spell it dorma
odd.
not odd that you spell it that way, odd that i'd not come across it in my reading of british books.
half way but boy have I slowed down.
i have 6 left
do you have the 7?
They are very specific windows and I work in construction, that's why I was so confident of the spelling
Not yet hurshy I only have one six
ooh, what do you do in construction?
I work for a Government Agency developing projects and putting schemes together with funding. Tend to be on the pre construction side but it means that we need to know a lot about the actual construction
ah. i always thought it would be fun to build things.
It takes years and years. Usually about 3 years before it starts and that is the quick ones!
I have been working on one for a couple of years and it is not due to start on site until 2012 at the earliest
so these must be big big things
the one I just talked about is 700 houses/apartments on an old industrial site.
My other main project is an eco-town which is 15000 houses
wow
I try not to think about the scale as it can get quite scary. It's the same with the finances. You have to be sensible but when you are taking about schemes costing £70m and above it's hard to think of it as real money
i can imagine
i wish i could do something like that.
I am lucky to have a job 1) I can do and 2) I love, I do count my blessings on it
building houses ... maybe it's the george bailey in me ... seems like, with farming, one of the few things where you can be like, i DID something, i MADE something, THERE is the useful result.
well, listed for last three, so i'll leave you with these thoughts:
beware the welsh, their words can lack vowels
beware food poisoning from poorly cooked seafood
beware unsightly basketball players who have piercings and tattoos up the wazoo and marry themselves
there's something so classic about three omens, isn't there?
LOL hurshy is the last one a clue as well?
yes, 3 clues, for the 3 words i had to get the list for.
back to sleep (hopefully) i go! ttfn!
Night hurshy :-)
good morning everyone
morning jacq
how is today's grid?
hey Katie
small but mean jacq
ty, the small ones usually are
woohoo finished the n's
would love a clue for that top corner N, jac
Think of a type of aeroplane used in the airforce
it's a type of fighter jet sounds like the edge of a glass and ends with a word for pole, n6/24
ty
the mighty hunter in the bible ni6
5 left, need to go to work. See you all tomorrow
bye katie
bue Katie
bye katie drive safe
Bye Katie and Morning all
hey FM, is it cold with you too?
gm fm
Hi and bye F M am going back to bed!!
Flipping freezing, heavy frost jac q Hi/bye diem and hello kje
Such a nice small grid for a change :)
hey all
Morning bf
nice, hhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmm, let me consider this word you use
hey bf
you got snow jacq?
not down here, but my daughters have said it's ben snowing heavily back home, and more forecast for tomorrow and tonight too, as much as 8 inches on higher ground
How much snow have you got bf?
well, the 1st 50 went really fast, now not so much
4-6 inches here but more to come
i agree there kje
where are you bf?
the U?
all we have down here is frost
NM, go it
the u is compound add a consonant and then to4
up6/24
The word that gave me the most grief today wasy the 7
im near Stonehaven, a small place called Laurencekirk
ahh, it's bloody cold there anyway
missing one from that middle C - any ideas?
nice wee place
have the one to tighten a saddle
yeah not too bad.
my daughters live in moray, near buckie
i don't have anything from that c, sorry
ah i know where you are, i used to work on thr fringes of Moray
ci5 - tighten a saddle
i'm in london now, and i miss the sea, i miss the snow too lol, it's too blomin grey here
i have never really lived in a busy city, im originally from Corby, Northants but i dont like hustle and bustle, people are so rude
You might be missing the 2nd c4/10
yes they are really rude
i have a c4/10 - pickle veggie
5 left
ok it is the 2nd one you want welsh spelling strikes again
go KJE
brb need tea
if you want 2nd letter let me know
hmmmm
the thing with small grids is the words are a lot harder to find
omg - i just got that... but didn't mean to type it in
lol yay
not sure i would have typed that in on purpose, actually
weird
Welsh words are prone to a lack of vowels
did not know that
looks from pronunciation that they use W like a vowel?
3
could well be.
go!!!
the w has a u sound i believe
wow, 1 6 and 2 7s left
there is only 1 7 and it's a doozy (well it was for me)
oops... meant 1 5 and 2 6s
now 1 5 and 7... hopefully related
0
WTG!!!!!!
Congrats kje!
it isn't near as bad as you think at first glance
that cw4 is the weirdest
yup it is a fun grid
and maybe the pt7, but it is medical, so that wasn't too horrid
my last 2 were the iraqi coins, but once you decide they are related, there aren't a lot of other options
clues before i go?
Not for me I am done too thanks
woohoo FM!!!
adios then... will try to get back to sleep
congrats to kje and to FM ! Glad I could say hi before you go.. just popping in and glad to see a smaller grid..
laters kje :)
brb
Hello Aloy, how nice to see you :)
ditto, FM.. so, fun grid , yes?
Overall yes, more like the grids we used to get.
Heavens how did it get to be nearly 10am, I must go and be productive for a while. TTFN
guess I'll dive in then.. need to finish asap today.. have a great day, FM.. see you next time, I hope
Enjoy the grid and your day too Aloy :)
(-:, bye Babble Buddy
Hi folks! Just have about ten minutes. Akk, 68 words? What fun.
hi Monkey.. am hunting my last word now.. it is a quickie grid
Oh good, I could use a break like that. Maybe after I get Walter from school I can really get into it.
I have very good news!
got it.. so off I go .. whoops not yet, what is the good news, Monkey?
Were you privy to my day from hell the other day, with the decrepit cargo trike finally really biting the dust and all?
aw, sorry I wasn't but I'll take your word for it.. tell me the good outcome of your hellish day
ero money (good overdraft protection), so a 15 minute ride to Walter's school has turned into a 20 minute walk and 20 minute bus ride because I cannot get a new cargo trike. Anyway, my dad offered to buy me a second hand one, and there is a fabulous one on teh classifieds site, and long story short it arrives this weekend!
That should start I have z...
yay, whew.. that will be a huge help.. !
Yes, it was my only form of transport. I could spruce up my ailing bike but then would have no wa yto transport large bags of dog food or pick the neighbor kid up when I get Walter or all teh other stuff I need to do. This is a lifesaver issue.
I hope you don't have an uphill ride to school..
And congrats on the fireworks!
This is Holland. We have no hills. Well, very few. There are a couple of steady inclines, but my trike was super heavy and malfunctioning so anything will be a relief, trust me.
And the one I am getting is a Christiania Light, built to last and with an aluminum frame.
ty, you will have your fireworks shortly too.. (-: well, I am also grateful for a smaller grid as I have to scoot.. am happy things are looking better for you, Monkey.. yay.. see you next grid, ciao for now..
Bye! Have a good one!
hey Monkey
Hi and um
hey lady
howdy
This goes from stupid to more stupid
lol
I mean all these high ones and then this pissy one
i know what you mean, it's small but devillish
I have 4 words
I have 4 words
yell if you need any clues
You done?
no lol
ok
but i have 13 left
Im eating dinner followed by Soy yoguht what are you doing?
making my second cup of tea of the day
wow
considering having a bath rather than a shower, it's bloomin cold here
I have ER on happy little bunny :D
not so keen on er these days, i prefer ncis and the like
oh Abby mmmm
gibbs MMMMM
love the whole alpha male thing, the Boss teases me about it
abby any day
she does have a peach of a role, and she plays it well
yep and awesome clothes
oh yes
oh yes
LipService is what she wears
it is? will have to look at that, but it won't look half as good on a saggy 43 yr old lol
It doesn't look good on anyone other than Abby
true
If you are a Size 8 that is good but people forget that PVC is a privalage not a right.
lol i haven't been a size 8 since i was 40
i do have a rather fetching pvc outfit, well cut with a long skirt, it's flattering because of the cut alone
I have never been a size 8
sighs, in my super skinny days rubber looked good
sighs, in my super skinny days rubber looked good
i can't believe i got so thin, i was a bag of walking bones, it wasn't pretty, but i blame the stress of my marraige
mmm pvc
it's taken 8 years to regain my proper weight
well as long as you are healthy
smiles, i am to a point lol
I am about to eat soy yoguht and i went to the Gym today
i don't go to the gym, i eat a high fat diet, but i am active and exercise at home
if i eat a low fat diet i lose weight really quickly
Not fair you seem like my b.f he eats everything in sight and is a thin as a rake
it's not always a good thing lol, i struggled for years to stay the size i was, even stick thin i was struggling not to lose more, every meal had to have high fat and higer calorie content, mars bars at bedtime and buildup drinks too
I have heard of that
i used to get so much verbal abuse when i wnet out, and looks from strangers, people even asked me if i was anorexic, then bullemic
so you finnished yet?
it was awful sometimes, my friends had to step in one night out when a larger woman started getting really aggressive with me just for being so skinny
last one
am4
:I(
done
YAH
wooohoooo, almost makes up for not completing last night
I didn't finish either

OH Monty why no tea?
barely awake lady... mayhaps, I should warm me a cuppa ?
Good morning, Babble Buddies!
Hi Scrabbler
hey scrabs !
good morning - well, this looks like a "be careful what you pray for" grid, at first glance. Only 68 words to find, but the letters on offer makes me think this is gonna be a hard seach
68 words! I think I will have fireworks today.
HI and its bitty
seems fairly easy so far...
Yes, Trif, these small grids are usually rather evil and unforgiving.
you get to 15 youll change your mind
20 down already - brb - need tea...
Trifs sorry i had to run of before
gm trif - brb
it's all good herin! would never be cross at YOU
I had to finish one of my Sims2 houses then Gym
ahhh tea... one of the greatest inventions around...
Yes it is
my 2nd word was hi6 - involuntary reflex perhaps caused by swallowing too quickly...
OOoh, TY, Luc.
someone say tea??...
How are you?
moi cross and hi !
Hi Crossy. How are you?

are you OK lady ?
Crossy, I am a rural girl--not a fan of big cities and busy-ness.
hate toronto myself,i cant do well amongst those insane drivers;( i only go down for either hospital for sick children or princess margerett
the fact that "pucci" is not a babble word is a SIN
My free time and vacations are preferably spent in the Adirondack Mtns, or something similar. I want to be in the woods hiking or on the water kayaking.
if you come over scrabbs,come up here we will get you by gerogian bay at the base of the mtn..you can watch all the hunks skiing
51 down...but hitting a wall i believe - totally agree with you triff !
MOnt I am now
Hey, I could take a kayaking vacation up there!
I got pudding thanks to Christmas advert. Christmas equals pudding pudding is choc self saucing in my fridge
yes indeed..but soon we will have ice in the bay:(
I love chocolate pudding!
Next spring, silly Crossy!
mont, I just read your profile - you are a really fascinating person! (vous etes un homme sympa!)
someone say rabbit pudding?
Its the crap in a can with gelatinous goo
You did, Crossy, and your days of eating rabbit meat are OVER, remember?
glad to hear it lady - with that, i have to leave you beautiful people... must eat, shower and go to work - BBL - happy babblings all - "POOF"
Bye Luc
enjoy
yes...never eat rabbit..thats right..of course...yea
well thank you trif ! et en français en plus - merci et bonne journée !
You must promise, Crossy!
vous aussi!
Enjoy Monty
crossy promises..arrgh!
bye scrabs, herin, trif cross et al - "ACTUAL POOF"
Bunny Bea is right behind me and she witnessed your vow, Crossy.
How is Bunny Bea?
now lets talk about bambi steaks then;)
Aaaarrrrrgh, Crossy!
mmmm bambi
I would much prefer making my own pudding
were did you all go?
I am digging words out of this mean grid! I just passed halfway.
Shower time--I got to 38/30. I have a long day and will not return for about 14 hrs. Enjoy the day everyone.
Travel Safe Sprite
opps Scrabbler i meant
6
Got to 39 before resorting to the list. Sigh
herin, are you finished? I am making some progress, at 42 words now, and haven't listed yet, which is good I guess
How are you Matty?
OK - working, but am having a sneaky babble ;)
you working?
after a fashion....
ok
I like that phrase maty: "sneaky babble". Reminds me of my working days
Ha!
I am monkeying away for the cw...
OH i had that as that was a phantom yesturday
Found it
there's a word that starts with cw?
yes, but it can't be a word commonly used in the US. Sounds Welsh
funny, bichon, I was thinking it must be a welsh word...
yep
It means Welsh for valley
today it means welsh for lickety....going to get list so I can see how many letters to monkey for
Listened to the pronounciation. Cross Welsh of the list of languages I'd be able to master
I'm missing a do6 - the second one - any ideas?
do 6/24 do + water channel
do6 a college room in a do** + not out
Thanks
yw
Could have sworn I'd tried that, but clearly not :)
Good Wednesday Morning all.... We had four healthy puppies last night :) I am a great grandmother lol
good morning and congrats jorjahgal!
Hi Pheebs

One left - ro6/24
dennis (basketball player)
she's my daughter's dog, of course, who is living away at present with aunt going to school so I get her dog that gets preg when we were out of town for two weeks visiting my brother and now I get puppies as well.... but I must say she is a really good lil mommy... I was really concerned because she is a person dog not another dog
I tried the lettuce for the ro 6, but didn't work
Thanks Doren - that's me sorted for today
Fireworks
woohoo for matty
that was for ro6 -- or add another consonant in the middle of ro 5/12
yay matty
JOr neuter the dog when she can be done
aw 4/10?

I still can't get the cw.... the one welsh word for valley I found is only 3 letters
its 4
make it plural
plural it!
HI Atta
ci 5/16?
JOrj are the pups fluffy?
I want to get her fixed and mine as well.... it's just that we are still hurting financially after me being out of work for a year taking care of my mom and my having to live in Savannah for 6 mos while she was in hosp. just took a toll on us but thank God I could have that time with her
Hi Atalante - did you end up seeing John Barrowman?
OK the Human Society can help.
omg phee! sure did!
http://www.hsus.org/
What does the Human Society do?
yay!
not yet, but I am hoping... when Jewels was born and Haley picked her out she was short haired but then she got fluffy.
thanks Herin.... writing it down now!
Well i hope your mum gets better. And yes being broke sucks.
or ask at your vet, jor, most vets will know of some local place where neutering is done free / low cost
and then of course with 3 in college ..... it's never ending.
thanks herin... but she died on august 14
OH shit so so sorry. I will go remove my foot from my mouth now. Im so so sorry
Nooooo..... please don't say that... you had no way of knowing and it was so kind of you to wish her well and guess what... now she is :)
PHEEBERS: here are the photos: http://tinyurl.com/6larep
I must have misread what you wrote. I guess should babble half asleep
Jorj: http://tinyurl.com/6c7dh this is a link of human society help for vet care. I guess this may help with your pet care needs
Ooh, Ata, I'm jealous. I met Terry Pratchett a few weeks ago...
For those of you that believe in prayer, I do have a request.... some have already heard this here and I apologize for repeating.... I lost my brother and my mom in a years time. My baby brother and his wife also lost a baby.. we just found out she is preg again.. with twins.. but one is measuring smaller than the other. Please pray for them. They did no medical intervention for preg. so I kinda feels like God is giving us two back for the two that He took home.
I am not religious but I do believe in prayer so I am sending good vibes.
nd hi all, just have a minute. Have good news though!
WOW - gorgeous
ni 6/24
Terry Pratchett is sooooo cool to meet
thank you very much
I met him a long long time ago!
Praying hard and sending kind thoughts
monkey! what's the good word????
Jor, I have twins, and they were small and premature and all that, and they're perfectly healthy now!
He is. And here I am (the one without the beard) http://www.paulkidby.com/news/index.ht ml
I have that belief too Jorj
Don't worry :)
oh fab!!
ni 6, please
wow... you just wouldn't believe how good you guys have made me feel ...thanks again so much
Hi Trif! OK, the good word. Some may remember my insane day from hell the other day and that I am now struggling without any means of transport since my cargo trike collapsed two days ago for the final ti,me. Well, my father decided he wants to buy me a second hand one, and there is a fabulous make and model on the classifieds site for 350 Euros. The guy is driving it out to me-- over an hour each way-- this weekend.
this shows how long ago I met him - I have signed copies of Equal Rites!
wow, such good news! best of luck with the replacement!!!
Oh wow, Ata - that IS a while ago - that's his third book, or mebbe fourth?
OH Wonderful Monkey. Your last trike sounded like a bit of a death trap
Fourth I think. It was while I was at uni, no-one knew who he was really then!
got the ni 6
Thank you! It's a Christiania, which are built to last with hard use and daily exposure to bad weather. The price is fantastic. It should be around 100 kilos lighter than the one I have been using, and of ocurse won't have an axle that rocks slightly back and forth and a weirdly bouncy front end.
THIS one will be worth painting up nice, too. I'm thinking an Eskimo carving sort of theme.
OK, must bathe teh boy and put on the erwten soup. No, didn't spell that wrong.
What is it?
hey, dig me - fireworks before brekky!
Dutch style split pea soup, in this case with Dutch sausage and big pieces of smoked bacon. And little red potatoes. Gosh, eating cheaply sucks, eh? Ha ha. This is actually one of the cheapest things I can make here-- but it's SOOOO good in this weather!
clue for the 7 plz
Yay Trif!!!!! And bye all, have fun, I'll be back later!
Sounds delicious
sounds wonderful!
think food poisoning, movie
Everything tastes better with bacon in it
Amen, bichon
first letter, trif?
absolutely bichon
I only know big words for food poisoning, like ciguetera
first letter of the 7 plz
it is a dreaded pt
ty trif
okay, gotta do the bus run. love to all in babbleland
pt = a class of nitrogenous chemicals, including cadaverine

Whoa. Our puzzle has been mini-sized.
the CW4/10 should be shot, drowned, throttled, skinned alive, and then rolled around in salt!
oh well. 34 down, 34 to go...
And just from that tirade, I knew it must be a word with no vowels. Evil, indeed.

Hi!!

Help?
how's you?
Oh, hello!
hello too
I realized this morning that I haven't included anything really substantive about composting in the presentation (yet).
fortunately, I had to put off the presentation from yesterday because of the hip... so I have today and tomorrow to rectify the situationh!!!!
okay, student presentations begin... *returning to lurk mode*
Long story... in short, the bakfiets (cargo trike) died the Big Death finally on Monday, had a very hellish time trying to get to Walter's school on time, strain on back, blah, blah. No transport now, was very gloomy, everything a hassle. Etc. Then my dad offered to send 400 Euros toward a second hand bakfiets, and I found a REALLY GREAT make an dmodel online. 350 Euros. Arrives this weekend.
Oh, OK, bye stid! Back to the erwten soup with me anyway. Have fun everyone!
turning over compost may be quite ofderiferous
odoriferous, even
you hurt your hip, stid?
yes kje... it's feeling better today, though
MONKEY! that is good you found a new one, sorry about the back.
help on the do 6s please?
so sorry, stid... I hope nothing too serious
do6 - do + ma4
One is realm .. Don't have the other ..

I want "marmot" to be in the grid...
I guess the student presentation must not being keeping stid's attention - LOL
Class?
hi ruru
good morning
it is stalled, the computer doesn't like her powerpoint
hey ruru!

aha! hairy-nosed dolphin!
okay, back to presentation.
nice icon pic, BR... and the line by Sadako too
thanks

ribs are painful again for some reason.. I improved and then not
yw fellow texonian
ribs? ruru -- did I miss something?
a new word, texonian? lol
so sorry to hear that ruru... did you overdo it?
stid - ruru broke his ribs trying to jump the net in tennis
RURU! BAD ruru! a man of your age! JUMPING A FENCE???!!!??? *worried mama look* are you going to be okay?
lol
hello
*brings roll of cotton padding and bubble wrap and pillows*
babs... i assume you weren't born here (neither was I) so we don't qualify as Texans... so we are texonians
hi harp
hey harp!
great distinction...I'm from California..
bubble wrap - excellent idea stid... but too late
I was born in Virginia
no.. I have been really careful.. but it has started aching again a couple days ago
i was born in a hospital
which word is the hairy nosed dolphin
?
aha! the middle column is grey!
in4 - dolphin
in 4/4 is dolphin
okay, next presentation
ok, i never knew what that met!
we need an icon of a hairy nosed dolphin wearing a toea on Etna!
well, bones usually take 4-6 weeks to heal, so not surprising, sleeping on it wrong, overdoing it a bit... anything will make it act up again until fully healed... it will pass again soon
*meant*
lol harp... find us one!
uh, i got the p7 through a typo!
evening everybody
I hope so.. hate taking pain drugs
LOL josh... i got thevowelless cw4 through a typo... had no intenetion of entering a word without vowels
although my babbling has gotten a lot better..hmmm
but a p7 is an impressive typo
i meant to slip a vowel in at the beginning and didn't i guess
i would never have thought to start the p like that
the p7 I saw... medical word
and i got the r6 i needed (crazy basketball player's last name) for fireworks
plus... at your age, ruru... things take longer to heal ; )
ohhhh give me a break
you already have a couple... and aren't handling them so well... really want another?
people say I look like I am 40...
I want the silly p7 ...
but then they are just trying to suck up to me
congrats josh
careful it's poisonous, wildcat!
pt7 - food born illness
WOOHOO JOSH!!!!
LOL - never even clicked that the ro6 was a BB player - LOL... duh
a dragster
well, ruru... i won't suck up to you... you don't look a day over 54
thanks for the RO 6!
hmph. ruru doesn't look a day UNDER 70... *runs and hides, then remembers ruru can't run right now*
could i have a clue for the u please?
I GOT THE SEVEN!!!!!

May 2, 2008 ... ECCENTRIC former US basketball star Dennis Ro has been arrested for allegedly hitting a woman at a Los Angeles hotel.
Aaaah, then I have heard of him - he does sports commentary over here I think, or I may be confusing him with a sprinter :-P Or was there a story some time ago about a certain part of his anatomy...
thankfully i missed that BR... oh the drama of celebs
I have three his and two hus. Can anyone tell me what I am missing?
4 hi
4 hi

yes you do, of course, sam... you had already told us you did, i just wasn't thinking, sorry
hi 4/10 and hi 4/5
Got it! Thanks, everyone
your profile posts are most interesting, kj
ty br... ever read the book?
i picked the book up off a discount table at B&N years ago... very well written, and very very sad
no but quite remarkable
i had never really known about it, i think in school we fous on the european theater of WW@ much more than the asian
WW2, not @
war is so tragic at so many levels
I also read a fascinating book about the shanghai ghettos... the japanese were not totally into hitler's extermination of jews plan, but they did put them in a ghetto... trying to remeber the name.. interesting, and somewhat uplifting just b/c so many people made the most of a really bad situation
* What did the painter say to the wall?
and a documentary by that name, if i remember correctly
thinking BR
no idea
something about a cover up maybe?
* One more crack, and I'll plaster you.
LOL

hello, jeanne
hello! How's every little thing?
now much to write home about but I suppose that may be good too
how is the book business?
could I have a clue for the ni5 please
It's the calm before the holiday storm. I have a bookstore in Omaha, and it's been awfully slow recently. Gee, I wonder if people are feeling bad about their wallets! Hmmmm.
You remembered! As I said, it's been pretty slow. I should be putting books on the database right now, but Babble pulled me in, as it always does.
hopefully it will pick up in the next couple of weeks jeanne
NI5 - You might feel like one after you figure out the word!!!! (I'm kidding, of course, but it's just to make the clue)
ni5 ni + na*** goat
I hope biz picks up as well; not just for me, but for everyone as well...
thanks jeanne & jess, and I do feel like one!
pt7 please
food poisoning Katie
type of poisoning
jeanne...what kind of book store?
anyone here?
could I have another clue for the pt please
I'm here dan
hi katie!
Hi Dan
was on the phone...used and rare....a lot of general titles too. Good for browsing!
pt7...rearrange the letters in a po8 to pee in, then add **** Street, USA from Disneyland
I've seen BookDoctor Gwen here several times; she has a great store too.
jeanne, do you have a web site? I was looking for something to give my Dad, who reads A LOT!!! maybe I could find something from your store? I can probably afford shipping to San Diego... ;-)
I've "talked" to BDG several times, but never remember to ask if she has a web site...darn it!
I list on abebooks.com (you can search for a dealer by name, in my case: Backshelf Books (Omaha, NE). If he likes history, I have beaucoup titles on WWII, Civil War, and general Americana...shipping, well, that's negotiable for a friend ;-}, esp. dep. on price of the book!
katie...my clue should have said "a po3 to pee in", not po8...sorry!
jeanne, I'll check it out...he reads everything! I thought I read lots until I came back home to help he and my mom...they have a house full of books, and he's read them all!
thanks dan
ju7st ro6/24 left
danf63 - I just put out a call for Gwen on a booklist we're on that you are looking for her website, if she has one. if you care to email me, I'll make sure she gets your address. I hate to be a middleman, but this isn't too difficult!
Hi folks. Just on for a minute or two. Does anyone know of a culture, present or past, that traditionally decorates trasportation items with symbols related to a safe journey or speed or whatever? I mean like sleds or wagons or boats travois.. ummm...ses... or the like?
that should be boats OR...
Maybe look at English canal boats ..
I'll do that!
The traditional ones are highly decorated, but I don't know if the decorations have meaning ..
hi Babblers. Katie, I can't find that one either. Sorry.
thank you jeanne...my e-mail addy is on my profile (danf63@hotmail.com), but I didn't see yours
ro6 24 = Flamboyant basketball player Dennis
See, the cargo trike finally limped to a terminal halt. After musch stress and worry about it my father saved the day and is buying me a second hand one, and I found one that is really built to last, and to run light. So I want to paint it when I get my degree and have some extra time.... and I thought maybe Tlingit or something but am very open to ides. It'd be nice if it could mean something, too, but is not essential.
ro6/24 - spare the ro* spoil the child + male
THANK YOU nrkii!
ro6/24 is the last name of the heavily tattooed basketball player dennis ro6...he married carmen electra, and did an interview in a wedding dress
MG...do you have a small bell tied to the front fork? That has kept the gremlins away from my bikes for years!
Thanks Dan.......Fireworks
Front fork? I will find or make one and do this. A small bell would be a very nice touch to my ideas for this trike.
yay katie!
woohoo katie!!!
I finally allowed myself to go to the list; but for some reason, it's all mucked up. Anyone else have yesterdays clues in lickety's list yet?
Here's a link to the ad for the one I'm getting... which bit is equivalent to a front fork? http://link.marktplaats.nl/208749749
The bell I have is all of 1" tall...they sell them at Harley Davidson stores all around, and on line as well
MG - What was the actual name of that vehicle - I want to see what one looks like ..
Bakfiets. I am getting th ethree-wheeled version. There are pics in the ad I just posted.
Flames - That baby needs flames ..
Mine survived two twisted axles, all the wood falling out, the frame breaking, the back wheel warping and jamming, the brakes falling off, and a number of other things. Lately the axle assembly has been rocking back and forth and the front end starts a weird, gradually increasing bounce as I go... starting over after stops. Then Monday the brake assembly jammed itself between the tire and wheel in back. I had already been told it was beyond dead BEFORE this. It is 1 1/2 years old. I will be suing.
That is backwards from what I was thinking MG...but you could put it on the bar around the front wheel. It is supposed to be a tiny little bell that jingles as you ride, very unobtrusive, as gremlins get annoyed by the sound and stay away
Flames are pretty common. Nice, though. I think I'll probably go Tlingit though...
I like it, Dan. I have some tiny brass Indian bells that should do nicely.
I suppose you could put in on the back axle, ifyou kept the string short enough to keep it out of the spokes. Mine is tied to the front axle opposite the brake disc
courier here...will try to get back later to clue if needed
Well, I will be putting on an awning-holder assembly, a metal frame, above the bak... err, passsenger and cargo bit... and that might be a good place too. I'll think about it. More than one bell OK?
Oh OK, bye Dan!

You know, if you don't play for a long time, your name falls off the rankings charts and it takes forever to get back on again. I never was very high on the charts, but at least I'm back on 2 of the 3 columns now. :) (doesn't take much to make me feel good!)

(this good agnostic Jew LOVES the Holiday Season)
TOTALLY! dudette pam!
8-)
the board has white tiles, weed
it does? huh? gotta go look. in the meantime, lookie what i just found:
You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch. You really are a heel. You're as cuddly as a cactus, You're as charming as an eel. Mr. Grinch. You're a bad banana With a greasy black peel. You're a monster, Mr. Grinch. Your heart's an empty hole. Your brain is full of spiders, You've got garlic in your soul. Mr. Grinch. I wouldn't touch you, with a thirty-nine-and-a-half foot pole. You're a vile one, Mr. Grinch. You have termites in your smile. You have all the tender sweetness Of a seasick crocodile. Mr. Grinch. Given the choice between the two of you I'd take the seasick crockodile. You're a foul one, Mr. Grinch. You're a nasty, wasty skunk. Your heart is full of unwashed socks Your soul is full of gunk. Mr. Grinch. The three words that best describe you, are, and I quote: "Stink. Stank. Stunk." You're a rotter, Mr. Grinch. You're the king of sinful sots. Your heart's a dead tomato splot With moldy purple spots, Mr. Grinch. Your soul is an apalling dump heap overflowing with the most disgraceful assortment of deplorable rubbish imaginable, Mangled up in tangled up knots. You nauseate me, Mr. Grinch. With a nauseaus super-naus. You're a crooked jerky jockey And you drive a crooked horse. Mr. Grinch. You're a three decker saurkraut and toadstool sandwich With arsenic sauce.
fabulous!!!
there is a fun cookbook, green eggs and ham...not really grinch, but seusss....
TONY BENNETT!!!!!!!!!
hee hee
tony bennett sang that? wow, never knew that

OK, i went weed... a very weak play

Hi all :-)

LOL, at work I usually have 8 open, feather!

8-) feather
I like Safari a lot, kje, but I use firefox on the mac most of the time

Hey guys, just popped in for a few mins to say hi!
ok thats good i just didnt want to be like that girl thats like concidered a lesbo u know what i mean
could I get a clue for the N in the upper left corner. Please.
Hi Pam.
and lindrick.
twilight, most of us are much older on here. i'd say the average age is around 30-40. just so you know! and welcome, btw.
hi red, how ya doin?
well, twilight, if you were considered a "lesbo", i think you would find that this is a very diverse and considerate group of people who don't judge :-)
Hello Lindrickway! How are you? Welcome to the grid
twilight, you are on shaky ground here. I am a "lesbo" and If I think blue, or you, or feather, or anyone is pretty, it doesn't mean that I am coming on to them. Kindly refrain from your ism behavior....
did I miss something... do we have an "under the bridger"?
hi Min, good to
no, just a young person learning about diversity, kat
nah kat, just young. it's ok i think.
Hi all. clue for the N in the upper left corner?
see you!
ok... thanks. I've been concentrating on the grid and looked up and started to wonder. How is everyone doing?
hey, weed...I need to check my email really quick and then I"M READY!!! :)
red - I consider that n to be an insult, but the dictionary also says it means hunter. Ends in fishing gear.
I am done!I have fireworks! ni 6/24 was my last word
is that the 6, red? jack be ***ble + dennis ***man, red
NI & a double hump letter & Mr Stewart (the singer)
doin' well, kat, thanks :-)

TY smaller
oh! never mind! good thing i missed
yw katrynwise!
i remember being young, and saying to my mom (who is gay) "that's queer". she said "WHAT did you say????" and i was very confused, and said..."doesn't that mean like weird, or odd?" from reading, etc, i had no clue of the gay connotation, and only knew of the other! i was very careful when using that word thereafter.
I happen to love th eword "queer." It is how I identify, and I like the meaning associated with "odd" but I am very careful when I use it, feather 8-)
feather, oh how awkward! but at least it was innocent. there was no malice
Well, once it did mean that, feather. Danged connotation changes.
sometimes it only takes one mistake - hopefully anyway. if a person was just unaware or whatever, and didn't intend to communicate something hateful, they correct themselves after :-)
nope. i always was fairly niave!
Pam, I knew there was a reason we get along so well!!! :-D
8-), blue
awkward is such an awkward word.
Pam, it all depends on the audience or the listener, right?...
i like the "odd" meaning too! and don't mind it otherwise, as long as it's not used as an insult.
am i spelling it right? looks so foreign now. like how if you say a word over and over again it loses meaning.
i think twilight was just using the "normal slang" she hears at school, sadly. which is why i had pointed out to her the age range of her audience!
yes, blue. I have gay friends who hate the word queer. And don't get me started on dyke, my other favorite way to identify....
smock smock smock smock
awkward? yep.
LOLOL, smaller.....
feather, you're probably right, unfortunately :-/
haha feather!
feather, it really is not a ord in the grid.....
anyone know that calvin and hobbs reference? or was that just me? .......
me too pam..... it's a tossup between "reclaiming" a word and being conscious of that word's sometimes verbally violent history
My friend's 9-year-old son tapped a kid at school on the shoulder. Another child said "X is gay." The friend's son said I am not but so what if I were. My cousin is gay and he is the coolest dude I know.... So, not all kids....
Heh. Nope, I remember it, feather. :D
it's true, blue. The one think I will NOT call myself is a gay woman, and I have heard that, too....
hee. parka is another word like that. very fun to say over and over. parka parka parka.
Oh, pam, I wish kids here had that attitude.
Weed !!! I'm ready to kick your butt!!!!
feather, i LOVE calvin & hobbes :-)
ha, so you think pini! the challenge is ON!
Isn't it fab, nocturne? In Roanoke, VA of all places!!!!!
You'd think in a place that's half artist's colony, it would be different. But the other half is fishermen. :S
it's nice to have the flexibility within the community to identify the way we feel most comfortable
((((nocturne)))))
that is true, blue...
Thank you. :) I'm raising an open minded kid, luckily. Or skillfully, maybe. If I may blow my own horn there.... ;)
Good on you, noc!

Hello all. In case anyone is interested, the next icon theme is Rorschach ink blots -- lots available from Google Images.
Hi, jilli! Got distracted...
Wasn't it nice to have a small one for a change in these busy days?
It's funny about the icon theme...I was just thinking the animal crackers I'm eating looked like Rorschach ink blots...
Yes, today's grid was a nice size.
Haven't seen animal crackers in years --no kids around
how's Tim doing, jellen?
I don't have kids, but buy animal crackers occasionally to satisfy cookie cravings...
Tim is doing okay, still not tolerating the interferon very well...It's going to be a long year...
hi & I love the frosted animal crackers :)
Hi, Dee
hi jell!
hi everyone
hi flosey... I'm guessing 175

Hi, flosey

Mmm, Goldfish...
