hi sheena
She is fine with it! Seems she loves you too!
* giggle *
Sorry
it's ok, sheena...we don't shoot to kill, just to warn you about the PB! =)
Hi, everyone who has said hi. I am looking at this and trying to figure out where 96 words are...
sheena...we do that every time the grid flips!!!
Take your time. Work on it, and then take a break, and then come back. You will do great!
which we could all go to if we arent careful with you here P ula lol
ROFL...thx MLF! ;)
kaz, the snow seems to have stopped, and it's melting madly
yw,, P ULA
now that's a new spin on my nickname... ;)
P.ULA has a certain ring to it LOL
wi6
sorry you are in the grid lol
we had over 2 feet xmas eve...icicles are about 4 feet long and no melting in sight, but thats winter in Tahoe!
kaz, we have mountains of snow, accumulated since Dec 13!
I have 14 whole words....
wi 6; the one i have is a hot dog
sheena, that's fine!
ami right only 2 7;s?
yes, mlf
yes MLF
that is a good start sheena
oh goody i found one of the a little while ago
hey y'all. Another little one!
no offense ta5, mlf...all in good fun!
our winter started very late this year Jilli...but came in time for school vacation and I have a snowboarder, so he's a very happy boy!
I see names
Huga, did that help? It is an odd spelling.
type them in, sheena, some work!
car - I wasn't asking for a clue, I was calling it
Oh, I'm sorry! This is my first flip, so I am not used to the "lingo"!
we usually call out the larger ones like the 7's and 8's and sometimes the 6's, depending on the size of the grid
i gonna have to finish this tomorrow...suddenly very tired! bye all :)
OK.
night kaz!!!
I have the hot dog one
i found 51 which wasnt too bad in 15 mins
ty6
Well done Kaz
Good grief! 55?
i found 41
lil*sis...during the first hour after flip (tradition, not rule), we call the biggies but not the clues for them...after that, it's a free-for-all!!
not bad at all kaz!
OK. Thank you!
I've got 30 so far
I've got 44 left.
I'm distracted as usual -- watching Great Expectations (early version, B/W)
nice jilli!!!
I have the ph7. Has the other one been called yet?
not that I know of pigeon
that's the first 7 called pige
pige i have the same one i cant find the Pi 7
MLF - you shouldn't call it from using the list, unless you've actually found it
so, the 2 7's are PH and PI?
yes kula
(sorry hugs)
doesnt matter hugs
theirs only 2
there are
it might not matter to you, but some of us enjoy the challenge of finding them
Pinikula - how was your christmas? Good I hope!
get over it jill lol
you get over it, mlf!
its still a challenge finding them anyway even if you know what they are in terms of waht they start with ;0)
jill i just type sometimes lol
now now...it's the holidays!
HI Autumn
no, not as much, you just spoil the game for other people
jilli, is your snow melting? It's been raining here for a little while (couple hours)
MLF to the PB
yes, autumn, snow is melting -- I don't think it's raining -- it snowed lightly all day
It was snowing pretty steadily and heavy. probably 6 inches of accumulation.
hugs what did i say????
sniff sniff
i wish i had snow here
(mlf - check your chat)
How's your weather been, Pinikula?
good snacks in here whatever i had said:)
MLF you can ta4 my snow. Too much for my liking and stuck with it till at least March/early April
it's still cold...no more snow tho! ;(
WOW Really Hugs that long??
*thinking of ways to ship our "canadian snow" to mlf*
How's it in winterpeg, hugs?
where i am they dont get snow or if they ever do it doesnt stay or stick most times
We're not bad, temperature wise, but by Sunday night we're suppose to be at 38 below
holy cow, pig...
er...pige
38 below????????
this amount of snow here is most unusual
Jilli - it's like it was 10 years ago.
it seems to snow daily and has been hovering around -20 C
just took a look to see where you are, pige...I used to live on the base nearby!
we knew what you meant kula lol
We have a lot for this time of year also Jilli. But we need it before the really cold weather kicks in. Keeps the septics warm. :-)
mlf - new name for pinikula?
I just didn't want pige to think I was callin' him names!
Eielson?
1996, autumn -- my first winter here!
PB for you autumn she is in the grid so to speak
or "post" rather (sorry pige)
I'm not going.... I didn't ty4 a word
no PB for saying pini -- not accepted
I'm in the grid, but I don't count! =]
It's ok Pini.
yes you do
Pige...was at Ft. Wainwright in the late 60's
Whatever, mlf....
(I don't count as a word in the grid. lol)
aint is in the real dictionary it should be in the grid lol
Ah. Lots and lots of retired military here Pini
Autumn i just like to pick on pinik thats all
I can imagine, pige...
<-- very pickable! ;)
Pinik should we start a club???
Then I think you were misdirected in your statements to me then, mlf
...I remember the winters on post, the underground tunnels, the "Days of '67", and the Chena River overflow back then
I'll think about it mlf
I keep hearing about them. It's much warmer here now. It only hits 40 below maybe 7 or 8 times a winter. The coldest I've seen is 61 below.
who will be the president then pinik should we flip a coin?
I am stalled at 43 words
I think I'm thankful I remember the snow and not how cold it was - except for the fact that we plugged the cars in at night!
I defer that to you, mlf!
i am SO HONORED thanks Pinkula
left column and top row greyed

Hi just for a minute!
Phantoms: weather, eaten, lemma
Lots of perfectly good Dutch words though.
Hi
Hi!
How was your Christmas?
Good! Low key. Just opened presents and hung out playing new games and stuff and ended the day with venison stew and lavendar cheesecake. Yours?
YUM. Borring
OK, time to leave the nasty grid and take dog and child out to the woods. Only -2.2 C out there; could be worse!
My Christmas was borring
Got that. Was that a good thing or a bad thing?
not good
Oh, I'm sorry. I do need to get out of here for now but I'm sure we'll both be on again later and I want to hear about it. Or you could e-mail me. Anyway, must get this dog out for a run before she has a stroke. Hang in there, catch you in a bit!
THat is ok. Enjoy your day don't catch a cold
Is there anyone here?
on
How are you Mari
hey Herin nursing a hangover but otherwise well Did you have a nice Xmas?
i am here but tring to motor through it as today will be all the family day and i wanted to have a go as i couldn't yesterday but i am nearly finished only 5 left
heard from Katie Christmas day and she is having a great holiday in the Maldives :)
thats great mari - i know she was looking forward to it
Oh wonderful
No hang over but we had some very nice Fruit Punch on Boxing Day
only 13 left - will finish later - have a nice day all
morning all, anyone seen mrP?
No and howdy Sprite
maddison and caya had an appointment to chat at hiccup time. That is 55 minutes ago and caya is still waiting :(
OH
Um could you possibly email Lickety?
I am about to email mrP, maybe something is wrong
If i had her number I would call her
I emailed. I know Maddison was as eager to chat as Caya, so I am a bit worried.
Sprite do you have her mobile number? Yes or no?
no
dang
Hang on one sec
well nothing to be done atm, will wait until answer on email or until mrP is on.
Maybe Email Lickety to?
Unless they have had a pc problem
it will become clear, I will wait. If something IS the matter, they have other things on their mind. And if they have forgotten, it will keep for a day.
True
thanks for helping me think, lady :) *hug*
I did trust try to find a listing for them but to no avail. I thought if im in Aus and could find their number then all good
you are a sweetie. Thanks!
oh wow, listen to this, I have officially become a babble nerd. Today's phantom: taenia!
Grins
I made an awesome Fruit Punch Yesturday
and I found all K words. Am definitely improving. Sounds tasty, nothing left I trust? Or should I run to the sin bin?
Nothing left. We made about 6 litres of the stuff. 2 bottles of Plum wine 1 bottle of Orange Ginger wine 2 bottles of lemonade and a tin of ''Party punch''juice
I hope you enjoyed it and are hangover-free today
brb
back later
back, but in a very quiet room I think
I'm here for 20 seconds or so... will look for a sunflower in a bit... Hi!
hi MonkeyG :)
yay the laughing fence is back at last
Laughing fence?
Ohhh! Of course.
yes it is a kind of boundary marker
Lots of Dutch words in the grid today!
laughing fence is a babble clue for a babblet
OK, must go finish making my breakfast... back in a while!
oh yes! Quite confusing, lol, most aren't valid.
bye MonkeyG, cuddle your little monkey from us
laughing fence????
yes. "a wall or other barrier set in a ditch to divide lands without marring the landscape" to be precise. Or a laughing sound.
teehee - got it
gratz

Greetings all
HI
Hi cliffopa, and herin.
small grid today!
How are you all?
Cold today. Very.
I find the grid small but tricky today.
How was your Christmas herin?
m Cough. Changes box :-)
borring and yourself?
We have a very quiet Christmas. We don't have this big expectation, so don't have the big downer either.
ok
ok
woops.
I think there's an echo somewhere ...
No that was me not paying attention. I am downloading stuff
You mean your whole mind isn't focussed on Babble?
Tonight is not a whole mind night. I have had a very busy 2 days
A good 2 days - or just busy?
Christmas busy with his family. Yesterday drinking and acting stupid with friends. We didn't get home till 6pm. I made ''bucket o punch''
Sounds tiring :-) And it's late at night now with you, isn't it. Only 11.23 am here.
Its 1030pm. i have a few downloads left to finish
Where has everybody gone?
I was thinking the same thing. Was it something I said? Or is everyone else just hung over.
There are 104 on line, although possibly not sitting at their PC right now, maybe gone for a tea-break!
Well admittedly I do pop in and out, getting coffee, answering door and so on (it's a hard life being retired). Anyway, Hi there, ExWren!
FYI many people never sign out--like me!
No, I don't sign out either, unless I close my browser for some unusual reason.
(Like your Christmas dog, Une!)
tx :-)
Good morning/day to all.
hey, scrabs!
hey
Hi Scrabbler
I have to leave for work in 20 minutes--I will have a college pre-med student with me, my veterinarian's daughter. She will make the morning more fun.
Fun in a bad way or a good way?
In a good way--things that have become routine and boring for me will be new and exciting for her.
Ok
Do I have a habit of making people go away?
Or was it me? Or are Babblers furiously searching for words?
No, but I think we're the only two here.
I'm finding the grid a bit sticky today.
searching! Couldn't get into Comcast for awhile earlier . . .
I have 10 to go but I haven't found it easy.
I'm here for a short while. Good afternoon all
I am trying to copy a disc and find out something on someone
hey, kallia
Hi Kallia.
Just started and have about 15mins...can it be done?
Hi Kallia
Hi Scrabm Sally , une and everyone else
No idea Kalia
hate
oops...sorry.
So you should be. I've got that one :-)
LOL
Great clue, Kallia. I got it the first read through too.
:)
LOL
I cannot decide about spending $300-$400 on a laptop that I don't NEED but that I WANT...I am SO frugal.
needs v wants...always difficult
scrabbler im in exactly the same position
There are some great deals on a web site, but I struggle even when spending over $100 on something.
Ro, I am thinking about a mini-laptop, but there is a great deal on a 15 inch one for just $100 more.
there are so many deals around right now
well i have a mini..a dell...but im looking at a smaller one still...the acer inspire..
makes it even harder to make up your mind
morning all from sunny sanibel
i like taking my laptop every where i can...and the little acers are so light..even with the battery in
hi Doren
i just got a laptop my first, for christmas, and am on it now, on the porch looking at the ocean. a new experience!
Hi Doren--warm temps here so massive fog from th**ing snow, in fact, I need to leave early for work now because visibility is poor.
oh my! well, safe driving scrabs. see you later
its great isnt it dorens... such a liberation
bye scrabs take care
That's what I want --to be able to sit anywhere with my computer instead of this room.
Bye all. Doren, walk through some tidepools for me, will ya? I love doing that at low tide.
then do it scrabs...we all deserve some indulgence
will do.
phantom empty
Hello
hi sheena
What is a phantom?
that is what my wwword list is right now kje
that's it for now, 38 left for later, bye all
later kallia
so not so phantom for dorens
nope! have a whopping seix now
almost a freudian slip there dorens
dorens...is that six...or sex???
I am new...
hahaha. still not used to the laptop.. tiny little keys here, will be more careful. dix! the bf is thankfully playing golf this morning so i can get the babble out of the way and won't drive him crazy this eveing, as I did last night, with my .. just ten more words..... five more, etc
welcome sheena
Thank you, kje!
so much for being careful! Six, not dix, not sex, nor seix
sheena...a phantom word is one which has all the letyters..but not in the right order... and you try to make it anyway
dorens, are you drinking already? ; )
Oh...like I see "enemy"
beware sheena... this is highly addictive
well, now it is... durn it, sheena
I already know that...I stayed up all night and finished it.
yup..thats exactly right sheena..thats a phantom
lol, kje, this is a brand new laptop with tiny little keys and my fingers aren't used to it. don't drink till after five.
i have borrowed peoples' laptops once or twice in the past, and they always slow me down.... no mouse, etc. but am learning to love this little cutie
Boy, was it hard. I had to guess and guess...LOL!
hmmm, the dictionary is missing thai
lone right E?
proper noun
thai is proper noun
empty, kje!!!
it's an ajective
ok, well then it's a proper adjective
how many kh? i have 2 so far...
el 5 -- e + bellybutton accumulation
lone right e makes me think of belly button stuff...
it is not dorens.... ppppttthhhhhhh!!!!
lol... empty, kj!
TY sheena... good clue
and "proper adjective" isn't a proper term, it doesn't exist in grammar :)
and BR! hello
then accept that it is a proper noun, bug
morning babrab
Hello!
but it's also an adjective!
biting my tongue.... just so you know
bug, welcome to the world of enable. there are myriad words that you think should be there, and they're not. whether proper, improper, noun, adjective
don't kje, it will hurt
only way to stop from saying things i'll regret dorens... btw, surprised it is warm enough for you to sit by the ocean
sanibel florida kje.
oooohhhhh - was thinking NE
lone top I?
island in southwest fl. famous for seashells. this icon is sunset here
gorgeous dorens!

some unusual words in here today
hello dc - in the chat there are some as we were playing "guess the proper noun" and there are some doozies in the grid as well
yes, just found ty6 :)
well done you! that is an odd one
i only have 2 left, and the house is still sleeping. what will I do with myself all day?
as i've played longer, my monkeying has gotten much more 'hm those letters might be valid'
i find I work backwards a bit - recognize endings, then look for prefixes, that sort of thing
Was lurking for just a minute resting my back after scrubbing the kitchen, but I thought I would say hello and ask for a clue for pi6, th eone after the spicy food and before the tree. Been driving me nuts!
its like what spanish kids whack at a party, with a sub vowel
Aha, thanks!
de nada! :)
ty, MG and flo :)
Show of hands; how many have tried Ikea?
I mean in th egrid...

i plan to go there this weekend for 2 more Billy Bookshelves
FIREWORKS! And before lunch! wow....
YAY TRIF!!! I still have 6.
congrats, triflo!!!

I started about 8 hours ago buit can only be on ten minutes at a time.
good mornin', jnr
Hi jnr!
ritalin will help that MG
Hee, hee! Nah, it's because I have a four-year-old and a dog that needs walks and musk get my house clean. I do have some valium left over from one of the tries to fix my back though, now that you mention it...
Where IS that? Hmmmm...
i am here for ya..! ;-)

Beanie Wi6 :)
Sigh, could someone clue the last ta5?
Can't seem to find the ik4. Clue?
grant, like a failed hand scanner for home use
or, add a feline :)
not yet, MG
It is a kind of very lovely cotton fabric.
not some swedish superstore..lol
Thanks, dc
How 'bout the pi7?
Build on pi5, not yes
Thanks!!
ty for pi5, grant
just lucky
last ta5 - add Scots 'small' spelled in German
Wow, thanks!
Wow, thanks!
yvw, MG :)
Y to avoid asking for clues for my last 2, but they're fighting me hard...
oh congrts, mg!!! (and some grids be like that)
Good morning, Babblers!
Still have the 2, I see my post chopped itself. Must try not to ask...
Hi Jellen!
GM, Jellen :)
oh, gotcha MG
How is the grid? Is it a small, nasty one?
Yes, Jellen, but somehow obscure and bizarre enough to be fun...
small, and a bit difficult, but certainly not impossible
With some good words too, and plenty of Scottish Babblets.
I have limited Babble time today, because my family is in town....
The last two are impossible. Trying to decide between asking for clues and going away for a while...
Christmas again...Yay!!
Watching husband and Walter take the tree down. We'd usually keep it up longer but it seems to have brought hordes and hordes of aphids in from the deck which responded to the sudden rise in temp by hatching, then being unable to eat the tree and dying and falling to the coffee table.
Ewwww....
but you could have released lady bugs to eat them :)
Yup. It's got to go back onto the deck.
good morning all
We are unseasonably warm here...hit 70 degrees plus last night!
Funny, DC, but I won't do it... they'd end up out on the deck too, the ones that stayed by the tree anyway, and it's -2 C out there.
morning, WV
Hi, wvteach!
warm sunny day here
We get enough of them in the house every year anyway-- they hibernate in the walls and pick the wrong side to come out in spring.
here it's to be about 20C 68F today! and we had freezing rain day before yesterday
Hi WV!
Weird weather!
We are an ice country. I was teaching Walter to toss pebbles onto the little canal today.
hello
Hi, cat!
Maybe we can hold the elfstedentocht this year... last time was in '97.
oh, what fun, MG
hi, wild!
Hi Wildcat!
we're also to get in the high 60's - have the front door open to get some fresh air in the house
hi jell hi dc hi mg
(kitten as all vim and vinegar this AM)
This is the 100th anniversary so it'd be cool if we could hold it. People are practicing like mad at the rink, because when it's cold enough they have to declare race day at the drop of a hat.
I miss having kittens...my youngest is 9...
oh, may that it happens, MG!
It would be fun, that's for sure. Not that I'd race... about an hour on the ice and the one weak ankle starts to complain.
oh, your in Frisia, MG/
Okay, going to take the monkeys out for a spin...I'll just see how far I can get with the time I have...
njoy, jellen :)
Not Friesland; Haarlem! Dog's from Friesland though.
hello all, just starting, is this a stinky grid?
Bye Jellen!
Stinky but somehow fun. Except the last two. Those suck and I will come back with more ammolater.
hi peri
Hi, peri!
ah, i see MG :)
I'm guessing that Haarlem is nicer than its namesake Harlem in NYC.
mi6....please
I thought namesake was the one the other is named after? 'Cause in that case we're it. Yes, I like it much more here than I think I would there.
Hi, musica
There is no mi6.
hi Jellen....love ur name.
me6 like 2nd word in ...catch a tiger by the toe
I meane mi5
Type of whale.
aeb, add a vowel to the animal
ty dcs....I thought I tried that.
OK, off with me to do more housework and get dinner started. I will be back for my last word later! I did have 2 but one of them was the me6 just clued; thanks! Have fun all!
Bye, MonkeyGames!

May be wrong, think it's Navajo...
oh, jellen, i did not know that about ho5, ty!
waiting for maintenance to come and fix my kitchen sink, water will not go down :( They usualy get it pretty quickly . I called about 40 minutes ago
a Navajo Indian dwelling constructed of earth and branches and covered with mud or sod.
saw the ho5 used on Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman
I read Tony Hillerman mysteries...
yuk, Peri. at least you can call someone to come in and fix it
oh, what bother, peri, though at least cheaper today than on Thursday.
that is the good thing about living in an apt. NO charge
I did manage to make my easy peasy black bean soup though
indeed about apt, and yay for soup
Mmm...love black bean soup!
yay for both
kitten was on my lap, over my wrist. i sneezed, he ran LOL

Hi, Ata!

Hello, Ata!
(and hi all!)
you need it, ata :)
That link was for you, nut...
go for it ata! how bad can it be?
Tim and I have a Wii...it's fun!
you deserve it, Ata
i've heard the other wii games are great
like bowling, tennis, etc
I thought I did. But before spending a LOT of money I thought I'd see what other people thought!
I would love to have one
yes, the bowlind and the tennis are great fun :)
stuck with 37 left
he6, pls?
stuck with 37 left
28
thanks jeller, was looking but not finding
Slang for your rear end, dc
he6 I have one that is a slang for rear end
great minds, Jellen
he6 like me6, why ty, jellen and peri
What does "he6" mean?
YVW
Five more minutes and I must leave!
here's the problem, the large rooms of my house dicate a large screen, the small size of my budget dictate a smaller screen....
Now's a good time to buy, I think...
gonna be 70 degrees today! crap, i guess i better get me to the grocery store.
LCD cheaper than plasma, and prices are falling now, so good to time to boy
er, buy
OTOH, prices will be lower next month, i theorize
Don, he6: word starts with "he" and has six letters
he, first two letters of word, 6 letters in the word, Don
Oh, cheers!
Sorry, first time playing.
welcome, don!
Hi, ZsaZsa
welcom, Don, it is a fun game but very addicting
welcome don
Hi Jellen. Welcome Don
And welcome, Don!
Haha, thanks. It seems quite cool. This little chat window is a clever invention.
hello Don - we were all in need of questions - feel free to ask
you'll find it hard to leave don
yes, the chat window helps us maintain our insanity.
bbs to finish
hasta, peri
I don't think I've finished a single grid without help from the chat or the archives, and Lickety, of course.
I've got...66 to go. But I did have help from mywords.com for ty6
Christmas day I introduced the game to my 22 year old son Don...he is hooked..lol
welcome Don!
Greetings, ZsaZsa and Minkie
Hi, Minkie
Hi Ciocia
hello, zsazsa

"Khan" is a real word!?
morning, kinkie
oopsie, don, we don't type words in the chat
Oh!
Sorry!
but, yes, it's a title of leader
oops. when you type a grid word into the chat you must go to the penalty box.
Ghengis Kk4, Kh4 was his title
...what does that entail?
usually there's fresh coffee and someone will offer some sort of yummy food
the pb is a lovely room full of food and drink
The PB is an imaginary room filled with goodies so you don't feel so bad about slipping a word into chat
lol
or drinks and chocolate
A whole culture has built up in this little chatbox, hasn't it?
last night it was eggnog and cookies :)
How many regulars are there?
indeed so, Don :)
you have no idea don
may we ask where in the world you are, don?
PB also has a refrigerator and a bar!
hello all - and sometimes the room gets crowded
I'm in Australia.
and cabana boys
Brisbane, specifically.
Untold, Don...some of us stay quiet in the shadows most of the time
It's 2:30am here.
Been in that room
Hi, chris
oh, nifty, Sydney, Melbourne, or elsewhere,?
lots of regulars, some frequent a particular time of day depending on their time zone
If I knew there were cabana boys, I would've slipped long ago.
and hi mrae!
shout hi to my daughter in Melbourne, will you?
hey Jellen
greetings Chrisk!
didn't someone post a photo of the PB once?
ah, nifty, don.
Mrae: I don't want to wake her up!
hello, mrae
hello Judy
Yes, FMitch did.
morning, chris, cute cat
zsa the pb is whatever you want it to be
I assume that the little gender and flag are for pro members only?
FM generally keeps the cabana boys under control. Ish.
liem
She's quite handy with Photoshop, I believe.
ok, don....she doesn't really need beauty sleep, but...
By the way, the current thaw finally enable us to get our car up the driveway. It was stuck on ice for 10 days

I don't think I'll be getting one; it's already sucked several hours away from me. I'm meant to be working!
Well, as usual, I've overstayed my alloted time here...
who recommended you, Don?
Kje: another spelling for another word for a hurricane.
I was about to call the fire deoamrtment
kje, a large Pacific storm, less a vowel
I'm just checking what her username is now.
Don...I've been babbling for three years and have been addicted the whole time...guess it's time to pay the fee for pro!

My trip to Vegas was fun...and bizarre!

So my schedule has become that of a night-owl.
The lovely lady who recommended me is known as "Monnie", but she doesn't chat much any more, she says.
N + 3 vowels zsa, zsa

Here she is!
hi monnie
Hi, Monnie
vacation judy
greetings Monnie!

I sometimes go by DonPerino, Monnie.
Hi all!
well done for recruiting new victims!
LOL Ata Great choice of words
I did not know that...DonP.
What's the word for the top right E?

woohoo wren!
Oh!
woohoo wren
woohoo wren!!!
My apologies, inge.
Yay, Wren!!!!
bravo Wren
What's happened?
My keyboard does that too, and DonP sometimes teases me about it.
She completed the grid
Wren finished the puzzle. Way to go!
Oh, well done Wren!
congrats wren!
In the last 40 minutes, I've got 4 words. I think I might call it a night pretty soon.
congrats, wren!!!
If you are a pro, you get fireworks when you finsih

well, toodles! {poof}
Bye Wren
that's ok don ... you do what you can
you need to build up exposure to the words that are common to babble and never used in normal life
Don, you can scroll back to the flip for clues. Press the far right button on top of chat
pi7?
I have been around for about three weeks...never yet finished a grid.. ;(
Woah
That's quite cool
unit of measure + vowel + opp of yes, kje
still trying though
Does "flip" just mean "first"?
TY judy
when most of your name is in the grid, you can finish
the puzzle "flips" when it changes over in the morning
Oh, righto.
unless it doesn't, which causes great consternation all round the world
lol
lol ata
LOL Ata
yep, we are a world-wide organization!
Can't believe ph4 is actually a word...
almost as bad as no list
you won't believe what passes for a word here
ph4 is a babble regular by now
no list is fuuuun
oh...that one is common in the US among the hip hop crowd.
and some words you swear should be allowed are not
ph7 clue, please?
Like "pinket".
Pinket should definitely be a word.
yeah that too
ph 7: ph 4 + past tense of cosume
down to 10 - bbl to finish - thanks for the help

Ty**writer
Without the writer.

Ty6 - a big wind storm, minus one vowel.
bbl

I am clearly the worst clue-giver ever.
wtg yps
DOn just gimme another with a better hint
use it in a sentence
the t y 6 goes to the bottom row p + ***or and obey
When you talk on the internet, it's very rude to ty4 in all caps.

the 6 letter one
look at my clue, coolie
Dorothy's house was blown away by something like a ty6. Except it's missing a vowel.
sorry, I meant coolio

No worries.

Coolio, please don't type you guesses in the chat box.

I think I'm going to call it a night, anyway.
It was lovely meeting everyone.
Don't take it personally if you never see me again. :P

But I might send my mum around some time. She has more spare time than I do.
Bye, Don
Bye, DonP...talk to you soon.

A three-legged dog walked into a saloon in the Old West. He sidled up to the bar and announced, "I'm looking for the man who shot my paw."
Find that alcohol helps me to get sick. Can't babble with it. I usually babble with a Diet Coke or my dog or both.

Phaeton, you can go over to lickety's page and check for yourself if you'd like. :) http://licketysplitaus.googlepages.com
babble rules are very simple ... whatever the grid accepts at the time is the rule
good basic rule
No, Minkie...lickey makes my computer crash :)
some of the words have made me bang my furry little head against the table!
sounds painful minkie
oh...you have noooo idea...lol
at least the fur cushions it some
You'd think so. ;)
I figure in another couple of years with dedication and perseverance I might get better at this
I've improved its just that I started at such a bad place ;-)

BR had to look up what a pismire was
T in the lower corner, not how we enter words here
Sorry, I don't know how to do tiny urls.
ho 5 -- navaho dwelling
looking for you scrabbs....
jbp ty sounds like a bad storm minus one of the vowels
your friendly picnic interloper
k,it is fine for work,e-mails,babble,watching dvds,but it is not good for serious downloading or for heavy gaming
thanks Kaz!
learned a new word BR thanks
one more t
It looks like a good deal to me,but it is Windows XP NOT Vista. Also,don't know anything about gigabytes Scrabs.
and it has only the single type of wireless hookup,so download speeds may be slower
I will still have this desktop, crossy, and I don't do gaming. I just want something small, portable and affordable.
8
then it is fine
now remember with acer,you dont get a actual os disk scrabbs
It seems like the best deal I can get as the sale goes thru tomorrow.
Crossy, you mean for recovery?
L: enjoy, similar to, citrus, walk unevenly, between 2 points, chain part and belly button occupier
what need I?
everything is pre loaded including some junk you dont want
yes scrabbs
7
the rig im using is a acer base
no os to reformat
i kind of altered it though:)
jbp li4.7 refers to the english - llike the fruit
li 4/5 is li plus double hump letter and single hump letter.
yes that's my citrus
TY, Min
how many ta words?
li 4/6:a walking problem and li 4/7 is adjective for citrus
So, if I had to reformat what would I do?
first thing you will want to do scrabbs when you get tihis is to remove norton system works and use avg for all you coputer protection
li4.5 is the fruit - this is li4.7
thanks Min
TY again, Min
5 ta
whew got the Ls
I recently learned about AVG here--is it a free download?
have TA not give and not given
ty
if you had to reformatt you would have to wipe the drive clean and contact acer with your registration number(if it is within the warranty period and they would get you to mail the unit in and they would reinstall the os
That li4/4 word is walk in a straight li** and li 4/8 is The Weakest Li**. That last li 4/4 word is belly button fuzz.
6
it is free and very good scrabbs
and Ta + no rrom at the+++ minus last letter
agg is not a resource pig either scrabbs..something you will want for a 1.6 gig lappy
avg even
ty jbp (5)
OK, TY for your input, Cross + BR. I wil ponder the purchase. I am SO frugal that I am debating with myself whether to buy it.
Go jm!!
now..h.p are making very nice lappys at this time
If you already have a laptop Scrabbler, why another one
i have 3 TA words
still missing that pi 5, 12 not the ship one.
I would not buy another laptop if I already have one.I'm frugal too. I spent a lot more than 349 dollars for mine.
pi 5 -- a heap and a vowel
thanks babb rabb
basically scrabbs,a 350 dollar lappy is a thing you use for 3 or 4 years and throw it away without ever upgrading it
ty BR (4)
ty babble!
I have an HP laptop. I'm not too happy with it crosshair.
would love a clue on the right side E

It snowed Christmas morning here in Vermont and then the sun was out. It was beautiful for the rest of the day
Pini, I emailed you my info
I live in Brooklyn, NY and was driving to NJ
ok...going to look now, Nef!
how beautiful, Min
Annie: no snow? how sad!
Nef, where are you?
For some reason we had a warm snap last night and at midnight when I let the dog out the water was running in the downspouts. Of course, this AM it was frozen again so it's kind of slick out there now
I was searching forever for the go 5/14 and then I just typed something I knew was not right and IT WAS, how about that
MPLS/ MN
well done, Annie...
ah, the joys of Babble
(wonder if it should be renamed to "Monkey Babble")
my monkeys are very well behaved today
does anyone have a clue for me 6/21?
Mine forgot they got extra goodies this week!
me6 rhymes with he6 and we6
so many words are like that here. I LOVE it (NOT!) when even the dictionary here doesn't have definitions for the words; but then it won't enter words *I* know!
me6/21:like he 6/21 word meaning buttocks Anniebrook
thanks, Pini!
and Min
FINISHED. VERY EXCELLENT.
yw
wtg god!
YAY for godthaab
looking for you now, Nef ;)
Congratulations godthaab on finishing the grid! Hooray!
Nef...there are ton of you!!! I'll reply to your email with my name since there's only ONE!!! :)
Nef...watch for incoming email!
okay, Pini. It IS amazing how many diifferent people have my name, isn't it?
yep...and scarey how few there are of me! ;)
(maybe that's a good thing?)
Well, it *might* be bad if anyone is looking for you or you decide to goof up bigtime! ;-)
woot woot!
oh...gee...not woot wooting to the bad stuff...
...was woot wooting to the FB connection! ;)
last night when someone told me that there were a bunch of me, I googled both my "real" name (which is where the Nef came from --college nickname) and my name I go by and there were more links for those 2 combined than for "Jane Smith" which I thought would be the most common name out there
WOW!!!
pretty sad, huh?
Oh, I don't know if it's sad...it's a nice name...
...mine just ain't that "cool"!
I need a clue for ta 5/18....I have both 4/18's that means to have possession
(at least the last name)
*5/18's
pt of the 4/8
pini, I have that one
I only have 3 TA words though so I'm probably way off base!
I still have to find another 45 words, Annie...how many do you have left?
thanks though pini....I need 6 more and I am going to be bald
(I haven't listed yet either)
a 5/18 is to add a consonant to the 4/8
Oh, you don't need to change your hairdo just for us!!
ta 5/18 is the name of a Steven Spielgberg tv movie and other that ta5/18 word is ta + David Bo*** Anniebrook.
that's the one we have, Nef
thx Min for that David B clue!
Minver! Thanks!
Second ta 5/18 word is like 1st with different 2nd vowel
yw
David B once sat in front of me at a Broadway play
ooooh, got that one, too, now!
Really, Annie...did you interrupt and get an autograph?
Pini, I did! My daughter loves him and his wife glared at me
WTG Annie!!!!
There are times when you gotta do what you gotta do!!!
Pini, It only took a minute. He even asked my daughter's name and was very gracious.
What a sport!!!
...and if the wifey didn't like it, perhaps she shouldn't have married such a public person!
Pini, this happened ages ago. You are right about the wife.
...and to think I associate him with the movie Labyrinth before music!
hi guys
hi smile
hi SOP!
hi smiles
Hello smilesoplenty! How are you? Welcome to the puzzle
how about a clue for that lone N in the lower left?
I don't have it, Pini.
pini, na and 2 vowels
That lone na 4/4 word is na plus 2 more vowels Pinikula.
a babblet if there ever was one
would never have guessed that one, Min! thx!
yw
I'm going to take a break from cluing.May be back later.

and comfortably warm!
I was absolutely wonderful!

Huh. I like horror movies on occasion, but they require good friends, popcorn, and liquor.
let me guess, Saw 2, 3, 4 etc are the same premise, different victims and even more gorier methods of dying?
saw - a series of films where an "unknown" person puts people in situations where they have to escape - but escape means mutilation...
exactly ata
blood freak used a saw on a man's leg -
I don't like saws. Or chain saws.
I'll stick with Freddy for the time being.
I'm an old-fashioned kinda girl
My husband fixed me right up
me either on the saws
Ny date and time were off and it affected expert
Phantom: eliminate
i'll stick to my vampires

hi min... merry xmas etc :)
You're really keeping a list, BDG? If so, are you open to sharing it??? * blink *

Thanks mrpresident. I had a nice Christmas in Vermont.
what is FA mr p?
Jag: Just clued the 3 I's for ya! ;)
can anyone recommend a good beginners book for learning (self teaching) the piano??
Hi mrp! Boy, the chat's going fast!
oh ruru, you do jest!
ne6 ? (can't type) that's the he6
hi jilli!! ruru doesn't know what sweet FA is
thanks
mrpres, no. and i'm a book dealer who specializes in music books (among other topics)
nope I don't
Jag, did they help?
it means f*#k all
mrpres, do you need to learn to read music, or can you do that?
he6/21 is another word for buttocks Book Doctor Gwen
oh.. well merry christmas to you too
oh great gwen... looks like I am going to have to go online and buy there
ruru, I have been wanting to do nothing for days now!!
yes, min, as i said, i have that word, and now on my list it is associated with other words that are extremely similar in spelling
ruru, I don't believe you don't know what FA is
i can't read the music gwen
I don't .. I have lead a sheltered life..
6 left
it is for the kids... they can read music for their respective instruments.
jilli, he is messing with me
Don't know what FA is either so don't feel bad rururocks
I faked clarinet in HS, so I know I'm NO help!
heavily, I guess, ruru, unless you led it
F*** All
Hahahaha pini!!
I think so too, mrp -- he is messy
mrpres, i highly recommend learning to read music first. good book for that is: Learn to Read Music, by Shanet
gwen, they can read music... I am just amazed at the chords that piano has
oh, i was getting the book title and missed your post. in that case skip the book on how to read music! if it's for the kids, best scheme is to find a local piano teacher who works with kids
Well everything I know now came after I came out of the monastery mr. p
done! thanks for all your help and happy holidays!
done! thanks for all your help and happy holidays! bbl
I mean, with all those keys! sheesh!
EGBDF = Eat Good Bread, Dear Father (my dad taught me)
bravo harp@
wtg jane!
5 left here!
help with first e in sec row I have ea4
look for a teacher who is willing to teach the chord system. when i was 4 my mom did that for all her kids and so that is how i play the piano now, mostly
(and, yes, * cough *, I'm using the list now)
Congratulations harpjane on your fireworks! Good for U
EGBDF every good boy deserves fruit
YAY harp!!!
et = volcano
I learned
oops - every good boy does fine
I thought that stood for "every good boy does fine" =]
yeah, the monastary of rururocks! Can't begin to imagine what that monastary is like! lOL
I dont know volcano
lol
and lemme say that learning to read music with those mnemonics is crap. no offense.
et 4/4:name of a mountain and also a babblet JagJojane
jag, it shows up all the time -- think Sicily
mi5/20?
sounds like an insurance agency jag
I learned piano, but was physically abused, so gave up....
i didnt learn to read music doing the mnemonics...
now, i got side-tracked. who wanted my word list?
was it a sadistic piano?
That mi 5/20 word is an mi4/9 word plus a vowel Pinikula
or a horrible teacher
mi5/20 -- a kind of whale -- add a vowel to the fur
thx min!
my piano teacher was an old german woman with a big stick.... she would yell EVERY GOOD BOY DESERVES FRUIT whilst wacking the back of my hands with the stick to emphasise each word. Nice way to learn music
2
I want to finish the grid, but frankyl, I am too tired. I think by now we have seen most of the city in three days in the ER...and people are really rather stupid.
omg
yw
mrpres. how soon after that did she go to prison?
I loved learning the piano but never had a chance to continue lessons, never owned a piano -- war, y'know
this was at a very posh anglican school too... such wonderful memories
never take piano lessons from a big german woman with a big stick..
gwen, back then, they didn't think abusing children was a crime
had a teacher like that in a parochial school, too!
yeah ... tell that to my mother@
shameful, shameful!
We had 2 growwing up, a very nice upright and a behemoth...full grand converted Player Piano, hich annoyed everyone, inherited.
Used to take piano lessons. Just remember 2 jazz songs
what horroble "teachers"!!!!
i guess i'mm lucky, did not go to a school where they did the hitting and punching
Me neither BDG...
horrible
I would love to learn how to play piano
I got the et = volcano thanks for all the help
then do it ruru!
I swear that some of those teachers were just sadistic mental cases that got into teaching just to be 'allowed' to hurt kids
Fought for my dau when she had a teacher that hit her from behind and called her the "B" word!
it shows up a lot jag remember it
I blame my piano teacher for my habit of nail biting. She told me that my nails had to stay short to play the piano
although in the 4th grade (1974 or so) my teacher liked to "escort" kids out of the room by the hair. she was an unpleasant person
pini! that is disgusting!
wow...bdg! not very nice, eh?
excuse me, abusing children was always a crime. The definition of abuse is what has changed. We're not talking Dickens here.
can anyone clue ta5/18? I have 2.
MRP...my dau was 1 of 4 children this teacher hit (once each throughout the year)
the entire institution of school has problems. 30 kids and one teacher is no way to learn, IMO
I adore my piano teacher, in fact we still know her...but I have to say when I was a child, I was terrified of her...she was rather strict and I was 6.
bbl
nell, which 2 do you have?
and now sleep I just gave up caring about this grid.
my 4th class teacher had really long fingernails... she would dig them up under your chin and lift you off the floor toward her hissing face! Ms Amyet was her name.... she was really really scary!
The ta 5/18 is past perfect tense of ta 4/8 word nelleon
ta5/18 is same word with different second vowel nelleon
mrpres, wow, that beats my hair-puller by a long shot!
Ant the last ta 5/18 is ta plus singer David Bo*** nelleon.
I never had such dreadful "teachers".
It amazes me though, my parents thought it was just fine to pay $10,000 a year to an institution that abused children under the disguise of teaching
Goodbye redturtlehead!I'll see you tomorrow in the chat
the hair-puller was Mrs. Grenda. don't recall any other teachers who used pain as a control method . . .
I actually pulled my dau out of school when she was hit and told the school she would not be returning until they could place her in another class...
I have tthe one that plays off of ta4/8 and the the one that sort of rhymes with maui
mrp -- did they know what was going on?
...the principal told me I'd have to home school her because the other room was full...
good for you, pini!
...then the 4th child was hit...
yes jilli... it was aweful that they agreed with the method
Clued all of the ta 5/18 words for you nelleon. Good luck
nell, you need ta + relative
...and the principal moved her to the other class; but not until she moved my dau per the other parents' demand!
but... it all came unravelled with what happened to my brother! NOW! that is a bad story of sadistic abuse
Hi there everyone! May I please have a clue for th5-12? Thanks
(the other 3 children lived with both parents; I was the only single parent)
ty jili
the police got involved with that one... and the dreaded Tactical Response Group at that! They were tyrant police and the Maths 'tutor' paid big time
mrpres, was this in australia? and may i ask what was the time period?
as an old man, it would have taken along time for his legs to heal.
th 5/12 is th + 2 vowels plus single hump letter gapeach.
th5 : common article + not out
Hello gapeach1066! How are you doing? Welcome to grid
Police wouldn't do a thing when my dau was hit because she didn't have any visible bruising...go figure (especially when she was the 3rd student and the other parents went with to file the complaint)!
this was in sydney australia and it was mid 80's
Thanks much!
holy cow.

mrp -- we sent our son to the boarding school my hubby had loved and had been Head Prefect. His uncle was the very popular English teacher with a lovely sense of humour. Our son ended up hating the place and we didn't know why. Later we found out -- the choirmaster we had all liked was a sadistic pedophile. He was booted out and ended up having an "accident" with a train in London, England.
and the school district didn't do anything either even after we collected over 1000 signatures to have her removed!
Good evening Minveryork...I trust you are well. I hope you had a great Christmas day.
oh jilli! how awful!
wow, jilli...your's takes the cake over mine!
I am doing well & I did have a nice Christmas in Vermont
hi everyone!
i once had an idea of collecting bad stories like this, about bad teachers and whatnot, and putting them into a book. seems everyone has at least one. (Not all involve serious abuse, of course). then i thought, what a horrible book: no one would want to read it!
Hello lbdawger! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
my brother was being tutored by an old maths teacher, in his home. My mother would drop him off every saturday morning for 1 hour and then pick him up. He would be very very quiet.
Hi there, Ibdawger!
I wonder, BDG...if that would really be the case...perhaps certain "officials" just might take things a bit more seriously if there was something to reference!
Hi Min, Hi peach. i'm doing well. been spoiled today. got a new microwave, and a cross cut shredder!
There is apparently a network of pedophiles at boys' private schools here
We found out that he would strip my brother naked, lay him across the dining room table on pillows, and whip him on the buttocks with 4 different whips. Leather, cane, etc He would first use a pumice stone to remove the old scaring, then whip him till he bled.
i dunno, pini: school officials in my experience seem to be great at acting like everything is just fine
I also think that, regardless of the offense (minor or not), that ANY official would take ANY complaint seriously!!!
right, gwen
Wow! Now you can say you're really "cookin".
holy SH*T mrpres! please tell us there was prison time for this bastard
mrp, that sounds familiar
OMG, mrp. and how is your brother today?
no prison time gwen... the police sorted him out 'their' way.
Hooray for your new microwave and shredder lbdawger.
prison is too good for a pervert like that!
is that what you meant by "accident" ??
ty all - 3 to go
my brother is ok, he knows it was not his fault.
wish I could have sorted things out my way (would have been easier than moving out of the area)
Go nelleon go!
thank goodness, MRP...
oh pini! that is terrible
altho, in prison he wouldn't have lasted long after the others found out he was a pedophile.
go nelleion
mind you, my parents marriage pretty much ended after that. Dad held mum responsible cause she was the main carer.
hello everone! What does the grid look like tonight
~*~ Firewords ~*~
hi cw! not too bad
oh ya pini!
whoooo hoooo PINI!!!
Hello cwestexan!How are you doing?Welcome to the grid
wtg pinikula !!! ~~~ !!!
Congratulations Pinikula on your fireworks!Good for you
wtg pink!!!
i'm speechless after hearing your story, mrpres.
THANKS MINVER
going back into the grid . . .
My son's choirmaster (who was his housemaster) would ask if he had washed behind his ears -- if he were honsest and said "no, sir", he was told to come into the master's room in the morning without his pajama bottoms. He would be laid over the master's knees and beaten. We knew nothing about any of this for years -- nor did anyone at the school -- it was dishonourable for a boy to "sneak" such matters.
Good luck Book Doctor Gwen.I am here to clue if needed
sorry gwen, there are more stories, but this isn't the platform for those... we survived everything that the evil adults did to us... we came out of it wise and careful as hell with our own kids
This was an Anglican school
I so know what you mean by "the code", jilli...
jilli, that is the problem, the dishonour in telling
...I found out about my dau's traumas throughout that school year because she finally decided to skip school...
...as a 9 year old!!!!
wow pini! she must have been scared to go
glad to hear, mrpres.
she did have a hard time for a bit (especially when she returned to her new classroom and found a birthday card from the offending teacher waiting on her desk)...
I am an advocate for children... no way I accept an adult using their power and abuse.
oh lovely pini... what a dipshit
OMG, y'all are hitting really close to home here. I'm just so sorry for the tykes....but the bastards are so good at what they do....there seems to be no clues at all...until much later.
I agree...and that still didn't get her out of there...
Yet there are many others who have loved their schools (like my hubby and his friends) and never had such awful experiences, just a superb education and wonderful teachers -- musn't forget that.
...I fought for a year trying to get the teacher out along with many other parents, but sadly to no avail...
I loved my education and most of my teachers! I knew who to avoid and how to do it after a while... became supersluth at it
I agree, Jilli...my younger dau didn't experience any of the horrors her big sis did!
sleuth even?
brb - gotta git more dinner!
well, nuff sed here -- must go get some supper!
go git it pini!!
bfn :)
see ya jilli
why are those ka's hiding from me?

Hello cybernan! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
hi nan. I had a nice Christmas.

YAY Gwen! WTG!!!
I don't like that babblet ik4... dumba$$ word
hope you have a space heater, jacula!
Not sure I am going to play tonight -- crashing in Idaho Falls tonight -- weather conditions deteriorated rather dramatically our last hour on the road, so we didn't make it to Pocotello as planned
oh, sorry to hear nan...hope tmw is better!!!
hi jac :)
so do we Pini -- it is supposed to clear -- hope the weatherman is right!
At least Idaho Falls is big enough to have some motels, nan! And I'm glad you were smart enough to pull off the road in bad weather
Thanks for the blanket, pink. No, Gwen, we don't. Only the gas fire in the sitting room.
we had a warm day today, about 60 degrees F (I'm in detroit)
what did i do for the warm waether? i took a nap, indoors!
Hi MrP. Read about your daughter's accident while I was away. (On Beloved's mobile). Hope she's healed soon.
True, Nef -- even a decent restaurant nearby for dinner!
Was warm here in Vermont today too.It was 53 degrees
pi5/12 not the ship please
It made it up to about 24 here today. I have one slick icy driveway now (and it's a small hill, so lots of fun getting up the driveway just a bit ago!)

You can definitely finish this in an hour or two cybernan
MrP - glad to hear it. Herin's nephew (4) just did a double arm break trying to fly.:-(
herin mentioned that earlier...thankfully he's doing ok since
yes, saw that! not nice for the little boy...
Sounds odd hearing the Antipodeans talk about 'summer hols' when we are in the midst of winter.
nan; that is WARm compared to the below zero temps we've been having! The beginning of the week it was so cold the de-icing salt they put on roads couldn't work!
I hope he was able to get some colorful plaster!
Pink - don't know. I got a message from Herin in Facebook about it.
Hi all; I have 7 left and need help with PH 7 pls

Hi all - can anyone clue me to my remaining 3 "L"words. I have 5 li/4 (4,5,6,8,8) and one li/5/18
birdee, do you know about Lickey's list?
Birdee, I am not sure from your note which li's you need, but 4 of them build off a citrus fruit...
IM 5/14 please?
LI4's = 8 5 5 6 7 4 8 4
Jindigo, did you get the speeling?
im + ***ican (water bird)
Whoops! Jindigo, did you get the spelling of the Wi word?
what is lickey's list???
helloa again, peeps
oh oh oh can I tell her?
Pini you are too silly!
uh oh - and I thought I was doing pretty good!
(gotta luv cut/paste)
you're doing great, birdeee!
3 words left for me; all P 4's!
(not stepping on Jilli's toes tho since she asked the initial question)
well maybe not so great today as I have 34 left - lots of shopping and errands
Lickety's list -- Scroll down to Friends of Babble and Lickety's Babble Clues -- right-click and open it in a new window -- it lists the first 2 letters of each word and its score, and you can enter your words intoit so you know what you're missing
Pi 4/9 - the beginning of a pokemon's name pi**chu
Birdee, you are doing GREAT!
ph = [*]retty [*]ot [*]nd [*]empting (new kid's abbrev)
(sounds like 'obese')
means "awesome"
I just looked at that jilli - and I am SO embarrassed!
they are all pi words, pini, and car.ee; I don't know anything about pokemons
birdee, I hope you saw my post at 10:15
why be emabarrassed, birdee?
It would have prevented many lame requests for clues
2 left
but it looks like you have to type everything in twice
a request is never lame!
birdee, some people don't like to use Lickety's list, prefer to ask for clues, can't see shy, lol
use the bulk add at the bottom of the list, birdeee ;)
Birdee, we ALL needed introductions to Lickety's List at one time or another!
well lam-ish
shy is not a descriptive word for anyone's character here!
birdee, there's a"Bulk Add" feature too, go down to the end and see how.
BULK ADD!!!! now I am happy if I can figure out how to do that.
Sorry nef! pi 4/9 (the second one) is like a diver's or gymnast position. Change the last letter to the first vowel for the first 4/9.
it's explained, birdee
not in the least! I allow myself to only go to Lickety's list after I'm half done. the bulk add is my biggest help
My bigest help is Babble Expert, available from Lickety if you have a PC (not a Mac) and preferably if you go pro
Birdee, trust me!!!! We all take our time in learning the hum that is Babble! We are here to help each other! No clue asked is stupid! Asking questions is perfectly fine! The only oops you can make is typing words in th Chatterbox by accident!
or misspelling words...as I just did!
and if you have Expert, you won't put words in the chat
(although not sure how I manage to do it)
jilli, are you talking about me? *I* have a Mac, so it won't work for me! ;-)
we love ya anyway, nef!
no, nef, just a generalisation
(shall I call myself dis-abled?) ;-)
and I do know how to spell "biggest" -- rotten typist, or shall I blame my keyboard?
poor nef, lol!
* chanting * Keyboard! Keyboard!
But I specialize in typing words into the chatterbox - I will look into "Expert" though I am getting used to the decor in the Penalty Box
remember to go PRO, too, Birdee!!!
LOL birdee!
FIRWORDS!! I DID IT! :-D
wtg nef!!!
YEAH NEF!!!!! I was waiting until you finished! Well done!
Thank you all! I can't believe that my last words took so long; they were all EASY!
birdee, when you have Expert there is a box where if you type one word it goes to the list(s) and more than one goes to the chat. It puts everything on one page, plus bonuses
YAY nef!!!
BTW, Birdeee, *I* cleaned and restocked the PB today. if you look behind the other stuff in the frig, there is a little something to put in your cocoa! ;-)
<-- remembers the bonus in the PB! hehehehehe
nef, do you keep your kahlua in the fridge?
I think my dog tooted again! UGH!!!

OK, good night all! Have a great evening!
