re6 and re7
okay kje... what is red and green and purple and orange?
did the grant go through?
oh dear kje, I know how that goes. good luck with it!
hmmmmm
no idea stid!
(hint: it's appropriate for first grade)

NBT
hi all. looks like i came back at joke time again! ;-)
hey fruit tart!
go hugs go!
do you have one fruit?
hi stid! how's school?
120 and really stuck..yuck
knock, knock
I think kje, that it's not just about being prepared, there is also a need for people who can a) think on their feet and b) pull things together in less than optimal conditions. I believe you will do fine.
go ruru go!
sh6
school goes pretty well, there is a link on my profile if you are interested in seeing the class website. I am enjoying it, even if I am not the brightest bulb in the bunch.
se6 and se7
go hugs go!
well, since i am a class A procrastinator, I have had to become proficient at pulling things together in less than optimal conditions, stid! rofl
good for you kje! then you are well prepared! *grin*
wow, ru... that's pretty good
does anyone have comments about my glasses? or does the green sweater stand out too much?
will go look stid
be6 and be7
stid - you can hardly see them! they must be frameless
and yes, the green sweater stands out : )
I am probably going to have my hair cut down to september length soon...
I did notice them stid, nice, but yes, noticed the sweater
thanks kje -- they are not frameless, but very thin frames. pretty detail on the side though.
we need a side view then!
*grin* I LOVE my green sweater. normally only wear it in the spring, but the gray weather was getting to me.
I am thinking about shaving my head...
hold on...
yes, ru...men generally do that as they go bald
ruru, that would be okay with me, since I don't remember what you look like WITH hair! or hats, or ...
*gasp* kje did NOT just write that!
ouch...
(thinking about taking that grant comment back now...)
come on! that is relatively mild... I am too tired to think of anything really good - LOL
there are so many ne's that they should allow hawaiin goose twice
tried to take pics, but too blurry. oh well.
I tried "neener" more than once
re6 x 2
wow hugs!
Ok, must run... great glasses stid... such fun getting new ones!... and ru, you'll still be our ruru hairless or not : )

maybe an earring too?
thanks kje! see you soon I hope -- and GOOD LUCK!
yes ru! earrings ar sexy!

Hi all and thanks Dart -

hi jilli xx
hae jilli whos the girl in your pic???
I don't know, sophie -- it's just a clue -- the icon theme today is a word from the grid which will be a clue. If you click on the icons (pictures) you will see various bits of information about the babbler whose icon it is
hi everyone. i'm having trouble finishing this one.
Hi MGuy -- I'm finding it nasty
Hello everyone. TY Jilli for your clue
hi lynxxx, and you're welcome
I always try snee and it never works
i've tried a whole of word that didn't work.
morning all
morning sprite.
goodmorning Sprite
hey sprite
jilli, I have the same thing with neth :)
hello sprite :)
hi all, have been babbling a little while already but with chat hidden. Am working on your clue, jilli :)
and I just saw your clue, sprite -- no idea!
lol - I thought pie charts but then realised what is was when I checked my n words
got it, sprite -- thanks!
lol I realised it wouldn't be an easy clue, just because it is so very literal. But it struck me as funny.
very clever icon, sprite!
it is a word I have trouble spotting, anyway.
not surprising in this grid particularly!
I must go to bed -- only 61 words and not seeing anything else
ah found your clue with the help of an online dictionary, jilli! I knew what it meant but I didn't know the word. Do now :)
Goodnite Jilli
sleep well, jilli, and dream even better *hug*
jilli, i've looking for a word for an hour. then i figured out your clue, knowing that your french is very strong.
that's great, sprite! I realise a lot of people don't know French but they do know how to find things online. Flosey used a print French-English dictionary.
good, MGuy -- my French is limited but that's one which cropped up in the dog-breeding game, lol!
I would have done that if I had owned one. Time to polish up my knowledge of french, it seems, lol. Thanks a lot, wouldn't have found it without help.
thanks jilli, that's fireworks, and i'm off to bed. poof.
wtg MGuy and sleep well
Congrats mayne...bye
WOW, MGuy!!! Well done!
I believe the Spanish for the condition is "embarrasado" or something -- was warned not to use the word for what it means in Englich, lol!
oh! That is quite a different meaning from what one would expect, lol!
Well, happly babbling all who remain -- nighty night!
lol yes I see it, it is embarazada. Very close.
night dear jilli
bed time night Jilli night all
night diem sleep well
nite Diem
I am trying for ct and cw words, but I think we are clear for today. None of the usual suspects seems to be there.
did that too!
lol I like that :) And isn't it great we KNOW words like that? Before Babble I would have sworn they did not exist.
BBS just going to make myself some dinner.
see you soon lyn
hi again... found some morsel of food
hi mrP, sounds like you would like more
well sprite, I didn't get a dinner plate set for me tonight!
darn sweetie and I think you should really eat! Not much energy to spare yet, have you?
fireworks. Some nasty words today, or hard to find anyway.
yay sprite!
anything I can help with before I go?
fighting kids?? any hints?
errrr a cold shower? A gentle banging of the little heads? Put them into one room together and demand they come and tell you a solution within 15 minutes or else?
we are watching Firefly... have you been able to get your hands on a copy sprite?
not yet mrP :(
ah,, the one room trick does wonders
:) It is the only one of that list that I ever use, lol.
this grid has some tricky stuff... but will leave it till tomorrow
and when it is really bad I tell them they get another 15 minutes to find a solution they are happy with, or I will find one and nobody will be happy with it ;)
indeed sprite... and if mother isn't happy, ain't nobody happy
ok, I will take my leave th4 and get some housework done. And I will not complain about it. Bless my toilet pots. Bless my washing machine and laundry.
poor girl! take it easy
where did I read recently... BabbleRabble's profile? Not certain. "The best thing a father can do for his children is love their mother"
I like that! and how true!
isn't it! Thought you would like it :) *hugs* hun and try and take care of yourself.
see ya! ((hugs))
hello???? anybody home???

Good morning herin and kje.
Where is everyone ... must be a tough grid ... nose to the grindstone and all.
Hi Merk, it is, think I'm about to give up for the evening...a few minutes more
How many have you found thus far?
up to 102 but very slow going, no list yet
I've only just begun, but it's been quite nasty to me thus far.
Have you found the 9 yet? Is it a combo?
no, and only half of the 8's
Yikes! What do they start with?
good god it's -31.8 degrees F out!!!
en & in 7&8s - almost the same
And this grid looks ridiculous. Good morning by the way
Are you in the east, Eva. We've had that, but I think it is 16 here right now.
en8.45 is a french word, Jilli's has it on her icon
vermont
Hello Eva
good morning
Good morning.
fubs
woops , sorry
fubs to you too kristin!
Too many n tiles and rather globbed together.
merk did you really feel you had to send this our way?
too cold , i guess i didnt lcick hard enough lol
Dumb question here, but how do I find her icon?
Hi
No, I blame Canada.
was just wondering the same thing merk
hi herin
You could do a 'find' in the rankings Merk
og yes, let's blame canada. They are so blameless normally
Hi Kris & Infernal
Howdy I am sorry its so cold for you lot
I can't find her in the rankings, but my eyes are still blurry.
are we talking about being with child lynxxx?
yikes! I just went and looked at my thermometer. minus ten! (or -23 C for those outside US) brrrrrrr
Yes Eva, french word for that
CLIFFFIE
hi Cliff
cliff it's -31 here
howdy all
I will hopefully be the new mamma of a rescue kitten tommorow
now I just have to remember how to spell it
Merk, do you have a Find option under your Edit
herin, congrats on a new kitty
fusine
damn
sorry
Well hope for me as we are appling with the shelter
How do I find a French dictionary?
got it. Thanks lynxxx
en8 try Pounds, shillings & pEN** & banks pay ****rest on deposits
Morning all. To find someone go to rankings do Ctrl F and type in her babble name.
hi Frances
HI Frances
Found it, never, ever would have monkeyed that one out.
good clue lynxxx. morning frances.
And the other 7/8 is similar to that one, you said?
Infernal I wish you luck with kitten. You will have piano keys - one black and one white.
no, the in & en 7&*s are similar
7 & 8's that is
Or as i call them spy vrs spy
got cha ... ty
i used to love spy vs spy comics in the old Mad Magazine
Infernal you must put a picture up WHEN you get him.
Well I hope we get him as some one else applied for him but they have been really crap at getting back to them
Just realised today is Friday. Have therefore changed my icon to a clue.
I have one en 8, but not the 7/8 combo. A clue please.
en & in 8 curl around each other, like vines or ropes
OOH fish me
thinking ...
the 'pair' in the grid are in the middle of these words
merk-that's also what they mean
I got it, ty
I really hope i do get this little guy. I just hope Princess pants doesn't have a freggin tanty too much
I obviously need to make coffee. How big a pot ... does anyone else want some while I am up brewing?
phantom:ancient
just had one but TY
Me please Merk. Gasping for a cup.
.....or should that be grasping.
lol
herin, it might go easier if you keep them in separate rooms to start out and slowly introduce them to each other.
18 this morning
gm all
Hi Sue

That is all I hope for if we get him. Ill be so happy
Love it when you're happy infernal.
I just want to give a stray a home
well good luck herin. i love having a multiple cat family. they are all so different.
es clue please
like the en6/21 but leave off the first consonant and then add an adjectival ending
I hope so he has the all the qualities we want, black yellow eyes. He is like a mini panther. HE is 2 inches shorter than Pandora my cat and is only 12 weeks
the te9 was one of those-what happens if I add an ending to this common word, it can't really be a word can it? But it was
ty ... new to me.

herin, sometime go to my facebook page, scroll down a bit and you can watch a video i made of my black kitty mr. peanut butter. he can jump really really high.
I did see your kitty pics Cliff. This kitty is nutty. He was jumping on walls and then when we got him he came straight to us and sat on my shoulder like a stoull
If you're on Facebook, be aware that a fast-spreading worm called Koobface is targeting users and trying to steal personal information such as credit card details.
Merk I am very carful
The Koobface worm sends a message to the Facebook user, supposedly from a friend, that says things like "you look funny in this new video" or "is it u there?"
I never open those
To be forewarned is to be forearmed. After clicking on the video link, the user is asked to download the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. Only after the user clicks on the fraudulent Flash update is the Koobface worm installed.
if only those people who write viruses would use their talents for good instead of evil.
This malware can quickly seize credit card details in two ways - either by waiting for the user to buy something online and remembering the details, or by searching the computer for cookies from past online purchases.
I would like anyone to try and do that I have a separate credit card for the purchase of internet stuff and never do net banking
This grid is slow for me this morning.
what does the 9 mean
TY merk, I'll pass that info on to people I know who use Facebook

maybe someone who stretches things to make them taut?
It must be a made up word lady , It's not on Dictionary.com

Who wouldn't ?
our new kitty is losing his mind over a fake mouse we have
awww new kitties are fun
What fun! We sure are going to miss SCSI.

Can someone Dummy Down the Es PLEASE ?

NO crossy I have that one
fu 7 == f + a sousaphone: t**a; and more sapid: ta*t***
crossy trudges off to the pb....
{monkey} did you recently lose a loved one?
Yes, we had to put poor SCSI down yesterday. Sarcoma.
Oh, I am so sorry to hear that.
en 8 -- add a penny: **nt; and the world wide web: ****rnet
en 5 --- add run around ***; or a boy named ***
So sorry to hear that Monkey !!
en 6 ---- to purchase coverage for loss: in****
Thank you. The good side is that she never had any pain. But the thing was growing so fast there was no other choice-- she was losing weight and didn't want to go out anymore, and then there was a complication with the biopsy site due to it being over a cyst-- there was no other choice.
Sometimes the hardest choice is the best choice. {{monkey}}
en 7 --- add the heavy string used to bale hay; pl
UM BR ? I just needed the Es 8, 45 ! I gues I should have made that more clear !
ty BR--excellent clues!
ut I'm sure chog viewers appreciate the help lol
Yes, it was what we had to do. We didn't want her to start suffering and it was imminent. Walter is handling it OK but he misses her, and I brought her body home for a day so that the dog could know what was happening and will not look for her all over the place for weeks.
hey kris--don't stop him, I'm on a roll! :o)
LMAO
But I still need that darn 8 LMAO
ty for all the clues br,im sorru about your loss mg:/
OH MONKEY I AM SORRY hun
Thank you.
I never thought about the other animals when we've had to make the same decision. Thank you, Monkey. You taught me something.
brb semi-pllf
Thank you, Herin. It was time.
semi-goodbye, cross
Yes, Nonnie, it's always better if they can see the body. Then they understand.
good morning babblers :)
Hi Nono!
morning nono!
are there really 155 words here today?
I am so sorry Monkey
I mean I thought about them and their loss too but never knew that would help them to understand.
Thank you.
Yes, it really takes away the mystery for them. Saskia (the dog) just went over and sniffed her and made her uncertain whine, then stood there looking at her for a long time, then went and lay on her bed and looked sad. She is not looking for SCSI at all, but she does stop and stand looking at her favoprite places and sighing. So do I.
hey all
I remember reading about Nate Berkus dogs that when he lost his partner the dogs became brats. They just didn't understand why daddy 2 wasn't going to come home
OH monkey that is so sad. That is making me cry
hello bf
hi bjs
....
es 8 -- add the first man in space: Y*** Gregarian; and a penny: c***
HI Bfs
ty BR!
me too :o( Our oldest is not getting around well these days and I am so fearful that while I'm gone my husband will have to make that decision.
how we all doing
fine here, bf and you?
than you, BR!
waiting impatiently for 11am tommorrow
um, that was "thank" you BR
in 7 and peppermints, the color of thyme.
im dandy ta, lunch soo
soon even
Hi ZBabble
What is in store for you at 11:00 tomorrow, herin?
Poor SCSI was only 9. But as I said she was never in any pain.
oh Nonnie that is sad. I had to make that decision about one of my cats just recently
11:00am tomorrow we get a phone call to say whether or not we are successful new pet owners of a black kitten (that is 12 weeks old and about 2 inches shorter than Pandora Princess pants
aweeeeee Herin they will be so pretty together..... one black and one white
Yay Herin! I hope you get the kitty!
yes well I do hope so.
He is a rescue and nutty like ours
Well, good luck to you! I hope it works out.
I trust you all will be told if i get him
We'd better!
Yes
Can anyone clue the bottom left i?
Monkey, this is our dog (a golden retreiver) and she suffers from arthritis. We have her on meds which certainly help. She's one her 11th year. Anatevka was my mother's day present :o)
I wil lrefresh to see her! Just a sec...
I think that bottom I is In 7 32 its a stick you burn with fragrance on it.
my kids is going bonkers for the last I off the top
~!~!~!~!~!~FIREWORKS~!~!~!~!~!~
Yah Kris
Thanks, Herin!
morning all....woot for kristine

Still not seeing the doggy... will refresh again.
I have 101 left
YAY KRIS!
Hi carlee and was that it?
TYTY , Now I am going to crawl back under the covers and take a nappy poo. The Baby AND My Daughter were both up ALOT last night !!
Good morning kids.
Night Krist and go give the kids to LYnn :D
Hi Scrabbler
Good Morning Scrabs and good night lol
I am going to lady lol
by kris
Morning Scrabbs! I'm trying to see a pic of Nonnie's doggy but it's not working...
bye bye kris
I keep watching reports on the plane crash...amazing story.
ciao POOF
hmmm...maybe now, monkey??
There was a plane crash? I miss A LOT these days! Sigh.
morning scrabbs! Did everyone make it out?
I will refresh again, Nonnie.
Yep, emergency landing into the Hudson River in Manhattan--everyone is fine. True miracle.
it is amazing..poor Dubya....his last speech and he was upstaged by an emergency plane landing...ironic that alot of the emergency measures that NY put into place following 9/11 upstaged him
Wow! That must be amazing footage! Glad everyone's OK!
turned out that the pilot..not only 16 000 hours of flight time..but also has his glider certification
Now I see a very pretty doggy.
Yep, passengers were in freezing water but quickly rescued by boaters.
OK, speaking of doggies, time to take mine for a pee and then wash the monkey. Back later!
bye bye monkey
bye monkey
Later Monkey and hugs. How did Walter go with his show
Bye MG
Thank you BR...I just now got the in7!
How is this grid overall? i am up to 22.

White tail spider? We have white tail deer.
The first half moved quickly for me but I think I hit the wall.
THey are tocix little bastards
The local schools are all closed due to deep chill and incoming snowstorm.
Yikes Herin!
http://tinyurl.com/5ro26x
Question,what is Dubya?
Prez Bush
How cold is it, Scrubbs?
George W. Bush <----Dubya in Texan-speech.
3 degrees but well below zero with the wind chill factor
thank you kindly
burr...I hope you don't have to go out in that today!
That is the spider link and yes i hate them. They are toxic and i hope a its dead as a and b we flush it so teh cat doesn't east it
hey yvo we are practically neighbors
I do--tennis, then lunch with a friend, shopping--I will be fine.
It has been cold here too. Not 3 below but cold for us. We're whimps!

I found a Hawaiian goose.

I wish I was heading to FL...going to DC area on the 24th. <<burr>>
in two weeks I will be sunning my buns in Cabo
good to go away ,but even better to be home again
<envious of jean>
Is that in Mexico?
where in FL Scrabbler?
any clues for the 9?
Amelia Island--off the coast of Jacksonville. My friend's family has a condo for us to use, right on the beach.
wow...sounds nice, scrabbs!
great place, you'll enjoy it.
( scrabs..all paid off yet?..i forgot the date)
hello again Babblers :)
Its the thing that holds the TE 7 28 in place
I guess the cold is "brr" and the one you have stuck somewhere is "burr", right?
We have been there twice in the past, last 4-5 yrs ago. Tennis court, pool beach, biking, walking....fun!
Scabbs that sounds like a fabulous vacation!
Yes, Carlee, I paid off my mortgage on 1/13, awaiting official papers.
OH lovely Scrabbler
WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!...<happy dance> for scrabs!!!!
And we play lots of Scrabble and laugh a lot!
congratulations, scrabbs! What an accomplishment :o)
that's about an hour and a half from me scrabs... it is beautiful ... hope you have an awesome time!
how long will you be there?
Now I have to decide how best to use the money formerly used for my mortgage---$830/month. Save all? Pay off home equity loan ASAP?
pay off loan..
Once we spent a day at Cumberland Island, Georgia--special place.
I thought so too, Carlee.
make double payments on the home equity loan and save the rest Scrabs
LOL Scrab I was typing out that you should visit Cumberland as your msg popped up.... For the past 17 yrs my family goes there every summer for camping for a week
Scrabbler my I put my 2cents in
TY for the advice.
( don't get used to having the money to spend...but DO buy urself something special to celebrate)
in fact... my pic is from cumberland... beach side
crossys back:)
morning crossy
I wold think the loan interest would be higher than any savings would give you...pay off the loan would be my choice too.
welcome back, cross!
Yes, jorjah, I read 2 books about the history/people of Cumberland. It is a really special place. I took pix up close of the wild horses of the island.
howdy carlee;)
nonnie:))
I don't like to let my income get in the way of my lifestyle
Yes, Nonnie!
scrabbs! how are my bunnies?
sweet as ever, crossy
I must get ready for tennis. Enjoy the day everyone!
Scrabbler may i suggest $400 on loan $400 in emergancy found and $30 on random crap
mmm sweet rabbits......
have fun scrabbs and see you later.
enjoy the match scrabs
CROSSY
have a great day Scabbs
Yes, you mentioned that yesterday, herin--I could have multiple uses for the extra money.
i suggest living as always and taking all the excess and paing down the loan as fast as possible
they have put up more stuff on some of the trails.... like a (knows gonna spell this wrong) a len tu .. made out of palmettos and *grill* made of sticks , branches and pottery from the early inhabitants of the island.. it is soooo interesting
howdy herin;)
anyone know any good annimation instruction website that I can print off info for?
get 100% debt free
from*
did the 9 get clued yet?
I have often wondered about that for when we pay our house off.... should you not keep an equity loan so that when you have to make a big purchase it can be counted on taxes... Our house pmt is the only tax break we get
mm good thought jorja
ar so many conversations im confused
an equity line of credit?
does an equity loan count the same as mortgage when it comes to tax breaks
taxes eat us up... my hubby works his butt off at a paper mill, and yeah makes good money BUT we also have three kids in college and they don't qualify for grants because he makes too much, yet we struggle to pay tuition for 3 kids and books... OUTRAGEOUS..
even so id feel better with all loans finished off
I believe so Nono
neuse
sorry hi all
We have 2 loans the car and the pcs
I think so, nono but not sure. If it is an old loan, the interest rate is probably a lot higher than what they are offering now. I would at least refinance and get the lower rate. A local bank offered to refinance an equity line of credit for a friend of mine at no cost!
my only loan right now is the car which will be paid off in another 2 months! YIPEEEE
mm see/ all kinds of good info:))))
urg..we So in debt..but fortunately we are in an open variable rate fixed payemnt mortgage that I can opt to lock in anytime....we have paid off a HUGE ammount of principal that way this year
go nono go! That is wonderful!
There is a great book i saw um how do i do this. Its mainly for the states
my five year lease is up and im into the buy back this may;((((
that is great Nono..I can't wait for those days
Crossy do you feel that the lease was the right way to go?
rates are very low right now carlee...keep an eye out and you may want to lock in before they start to climb again.
definatly..you wait for the dealer specials,the total cost of this particular lease over 5 years was only $768.00
hey let me ask ya'lls opinion on something... how long does it take to build credit back up? Our score dropped this past year because honestly there were months upon months that it was pay something on time or be able to stay with my mom in the hospital...I chose my mom
on a $19,000 dollar car
they won't for a while nonnie....but yea we watching
credit bounce back can take 5 years
http://tinyurl.com/8jz87k here and http://tinyurl.com/6wf5ex THIS stuff is mostly state side
jorjah it will take a while but keep paying everything on time again and it will rebuild
they look at long curve payments
I downloaded the free book as the priniciples seem the same
thanks.... and even tho' it hurt us.... I don't regret the decisions one bit...sometimes bad things happen to good people and you have to do what you have to
jorj, get everything off of your rating that you have paid off but are still opened. They look at that as potential loans or whatever. In otherwords, close everything out.
nonnie is right
its amazing what they keep on the books that should be closed
so even tho' you don't owe anything on it... like my sears card for example... close it?
equifax..i cant remember the other
Um JOrg have a look at the links i gave
Yes jorj...if you don't need it for an emergency, close it out.
credit reporting agencies such as Equifax will still keep those accounts on your records tho for as long as 20 years even if you close them
they see it as a POTENTIAL debt
keep just one all purpose card
For the history, right. But the potential for the debt is gone.
Trans Uniion and Experian are the other credit reporting companies
did any one see my links?
besides that,sears rates are crazy!
trans union,thats the other
better off using your master card in sears than the sears card!
Sears can be bears to work with also.
yes Herin i already downloaded Orman's book
sorry... herin didn't realize those were meant for me... I just opened them and then saved them in bookmarks
thanks so much!
sears,and other in store cards should be the first to be cut
if you must use a credit card use one with a low interest rate and try to pay it off each month
WIth all your credit ratings and stuff i have no idea how that all works state side. Jor that Orman book may help
and put a limit on the cards you do keep
I dont even have a credit card
We 3 cc... sears... owe nothing.... dell and union plus and together those are about 1500 .... but instead of paying them off we were making pmts to try to up our score but it does not seem to be making a diff. .. and yes paid on time
my mastercard company keeps bumping my limit.o mean who actually needs a card with 20,000 limit.im gonna slash that soon
jorj, you may think about transferring high interest loans to a no or very low interest card, with no fee and that will lock you in at the low rate.
I keep two..... one i use most of the time but pay the full amount each month the other is only a back up if the first isnt accepted someplace
I did that with sears... they tried to give us a 5000. limit and I knocked it down to 250.
To avoid not paying bills, set up online account for a recurring bill payment every month. That way you can't miss a payment. You can pay the minimum and then at least you made a payment rather than missing it.
get rid of the sears,they carry a craqzy interest rate,and since they take visa and mc,you dont need it
We live on under $4000 a month here half goes in rent and petral
but make sure you make the payment on time. They will jack that rate up to an ungodly amount and be laughing all the way to the bank.
rather they did and I made them change it... I know me too well.... awwww look at 100 inch lcd tv for 3000 toooo tempting
Jorg Check that Ormond book likely to have all your answers in there
you would laugh at what we live on herin:/
Crossy we don't have money to buy frivolous crap.
if you are all able to, join a credit union . they have expanded membership and if it's a strong one, they have better rates on everything and free counseling
herin I wish I had that much income a month
very true TO!
morning TO!
THat is between 2
indeed herin,we live on about 2300 a month,im not being faecitious
I sure appreciate all ya'lls help. Most places were very understanding when I had all that going on with Mama but some coulda cared less. We have always banked at our credit union
that
that
i always use a credit union:))
about the same here Crossy for the two of us
or meet with a debt counselor. worth the money. another way is to work part time and earmark the money for a certain bill. you can figure out how long you will have to work and will have a goal in sight.
geesh sorry hit the enter button instead of the key
good advice to;))
sorry i suck at adding. $3600 between us. $1386 rent
Right and as soon as you get one paid off, double up on another. It really goes fast when you put your mind to it.
if i worked as many extra hours as i babble....
oh my...what is very high rent!
Cross is that before or after bills and the like?
lol TO we would be rich if we did that
and things like bringing your own coffe from home instead of takeout can save 100 a month
amen! :D
It is nonnie but that is low for some.
I start next month babysitting for my neice... under the table and good hours... she's a teacher. Even tho' we coulda used the extra money I just couldn't do it before now... I was emotionally and physically drained
lol herin,there is nothing left after the bills;/
{{jorj}} it will get better! :o)
seinfeld fans: elaine is in the grid today!
Oh. Cross i wasn't sure it that was after bills.
ty TO!
sounds like you have learned to cut corners the same as I have Crossy
Jor do look into that book to download whilst its free
singular, too - and don't forget the sesame seed
rent,credit card,car payments,new brakes,furniture falling apart after 15 years,same as everyone else;))
holy mother of all that is good and holy! it is FREEZING outside!!!
lol I've never even had starbucks... I am very frugal here... I cook we don't eat out etc, and I prefer to watch movies on dvd than go see them. Ya'll I realllllly appreciate all your wisdom. Thanks for helping and not judging... downloadin' as we speak, herin.... THANK YOUUUU!!!
i BUILT this computer for $450.00 instead of buying a premade one to save money:))
is anyone using clue icons any more? if not i will become elaine
np jorja,take what helps and disregard all my random meanderings :))
My husband is a woodworker--self employed and last year was good BUT what little we had in "savings" is slowly going bye bye as this year is not so good! (one step forward and two back)
i might, once i find some words...but not yet...
Hi Eva
mornin herin
well even tho' I worry bout the credit score... after this past year for us...believe me... money can make things miserable at times, but it is NOT the worst thing that can happen
I have 2 things we do here to stop the inner brat getting pissy at the INJUSTICE of not being wealthy enough to eat out every night
No, jorj--it certainly is not the worst...
ok must get ready to brave the elements - see you later.
its amazing where extra money can be found,bring coffee instead of take out,cut back to basic cable,check all the extras they charge you for on phone bill,use that air miles card et cetera
bye bye TO have a good day.
almost balmy toady its only minus 13 c
crossy: i have yet to see the skinny b in me, however the rich b is just everywhere!
You're right crossy...just a few changes in what we're used to can add up to a huge savings.
and as i get older there is NOTHING she wants to economize on LOL
I"ve also started doing my sister in laws laundry and I am at that place now where staying busy is helping alot... but boy did I have to wallow for a while
lol TO
hello everyone
Here is the 2 things i do to making inner Brat happy: Restaurant Night ''junk food '' night and Apocalypse cooking once a month.
hiya as
i NEVER wallow,i would be dead now if i did
but i figure i will get better furniture et al while working my last years, to use when not working.
hello lindy
hi lindy
how is everyone?
i went fromt wo incomes to buying out my ex husband and it's rough sometimes; the champagne taste did not leave with him
od i'm diving into the grin in ernest now...... SPLASH!
sounds good TO,but i have 18 years left in the work force and the poor furniture wont make it
I did... for a about 2 months... or shut down would maybe be a better description
LOL crossy!
I wallow and then have to kick myself in the butt and get on with it. Service for others is a great way to get rid of the blues. Well, at least it works for me :o)
i am AT my last years now, although they've been extended by the current stockdecline
indeed nonnie
gosh, I wish there was another N....
if you even have stock its a plus
Inner brat gets to go to a ''restaurant'' every week: I cook something nice at home like a steak and make it all pretty and the Junk food night is say a burger and wedges or chicken nuggets all cooked at home. Apocalypse week is when you get to the end of the month and eat all your freezer foods that are near the end of their life and check out whats in the pantry
lol lindy...how many you nnnnneed?
best i can do is a bunch of rotating savings bonds;/
just annnnother onnnne
OH and Inner brat gets treats: Do house work you can have ''chocolate milk'' (soy)
no it's not. company plan corssy, let's me defer income and pay less taxes. however, i will ahve to pay on gains that no longer exist
=)
I wasn't a wallower before, but I was grieving for 3 very important people that I loved so much all at once soooo I wallowed .... but back on my feetsies now :)
good ideas, herin! :o)
Jorg 3 major events in one hit can make your brain go ''that's it im out of here
good for you, jorja!
ahh k i understand t.o
3 left
it's very scary to be alone and try to figure out what you will do when no longer working.
Good for you, jorj but I'm sorry you had to go through all that.
and it's fireworks ...
Nonnie you ahve to have fun otherwise you go you know what screw it i really cant afford it but im going out for dinner
can;t live here, taxes are too high
congrats merk!
yaa for merk! 21 gun salute for you!
thanks guys...didn't think I would ever smile again but boy was I wrong... thankfully
yah merk
CongratsMerk!!
woohooo congrats Merk

the saying i have heard (folklore buff here) is: children poot, women fart, men bort
they didnt seem to like having a duster attached to their tail + dustcloths on their paws...
hairball disposal may become a big issue
bort?
another version: men fart, women just glow.
The Bobs have a song called "fluffy's master plan for world domination" that I highly recommend
i8mmaculate evacuation??
bort is an onomatopoeia. you have to imagine it, or say it out lod
out loud (sheesh)
welcome to the typo club gwen..we have jackets and cooookies
Good morning, peeps. Face it, we make daily methane contributions to greenhouse gasses.
oooh, i want cookies
good morning, farty babblers
well, with 97 left, I"m off to work. see all y'all later. ;-)
i love the new vegetarian commercials,eat more greens and have less farting cows in the fields;0
lol trif
i want a word that starts scc---
But, Crossy, cows are part of the problem. They eat greens and have farted a hole right through the ozone.
umm, humans breed a billion cattle and then blame the cattle for ruining the environment. yeah, right
personally i wont worry bout farting cows whist we have 18 million cars on the road
who are you calling a farting cow?!
lol its all the arosol hair spray our mums used in the 50,s and 60,s that probably popped our ozone layer
well, i'm off to buy more books and catch up on The Daily Show. see ya tomorrow, and *bort!*
No, no, Jean. Borting bovines.
not to belittle borting bovines.....
hey...i contribute my fair share...those munching yeast making wine and beer
I'll drink to that, Carlee!!!
if you believe that borting bovines blasted a hole in the ozone then i have some good grazing land to sell you:)
all the fermentors in the world pump out ALOT of co2
now lets talk farting sheep.....
( god I LUV southern Brown sugar...)
or do sheep poot?
I theeenk sheep sheeet.
imagine all the pooting mice......
we "fluff" in thos household..i HATE the word fa** unless omeone rips a hole in the wall with an earth shatterer...we fluff
fluff?
its not so crass
my dad always blamed the dog that was always inder his chair and one day i said"tippy you better move or he is going to cover you!"
hehehe....( oh..i am in heaven..cream of wheat with brown sugar...)
ugh
let me whip up a nice cheese and mushroom 4 egg omlette for you;)
crossy..the brown sugar down south..is like NO brown sugar we have up here
( 2 egg mushroom and cheese for lunch)
just make it yourself with cane sugar and mollasass
our sugar up here is mostly beet sugar
( here..the sugar is refine to white.....then they add molassas back in...down there...they refine to individual stages and remove....
Oh, so now we're tallking about what comes out of mole asses?
jeebus! its even freezing in the hallway!
now how did we get onto a moles back side?
the diff is like freshly squeezed OJ vs OJ from concentrate.
crossy -- that sounds like the setup to a REALLY bad joke...
last time i saw something green and growing i think it was off of some mystery leftover in the back of the fridge;(
I already told scarlet she will be mailing me Brown sugar packages up here...
fair swap for the PC hot caramel sauce she fell in love with
( I had been thinking about that cream of wheat since 3 am )
what really good is when you cant tell what it is "whats in that container honey?" "o really dont know!" "well smell it"..."it has no smell at all!"...could be meat..could be cake..."its meatcake!
ok..i have errands to do.....best run
tc carlee
wonder if that where meatloaf came from
mmmmmmmmmmm..............meatcake..... .....
was banana loaf...or cooked meat...
Isn't that Spam?
the yellow meatcake is the best;)
on that note... ttfn *poof*
makes me think if the episode of friends where Rachel was making Trifle for dessert + got the cookbook pages stuck together + had ground beef in her trifle...
there is a beef and bread recipie
good morning :)
Hey Babble Family !
hiya cyber, hello aussie
Hey Eva !
nice Carlinism, crossy!
gross eva! didn't see that one....
Guten Morgen, all. Minus 9 degrees Fahrenheit in SE Michigan! OUr kitchen water faucet froze.
Minus 9??? It's minus 23 here in Toronto!!
But that's ok...I leave for Mexico in the morning...
Canada is supposed to be colder!
not that cold...plus 3 win Whitehorse yesterday.
we are a balmy -13 toady
OK, off to find words
I got one of those automatic phone calls from the school yesterday - it was the prinicpal, who actually had to call to tell parents to make sure the kids had coats and hats on. how sad is that?
sorry krystem..you got me...im busted
Calgary, crosshair?
LOL...Love all Carlin works...memorized them as a teen.
that's truly sad, Trifioso. A sad testament of the times we live in.
Time for a break. Going to pop onto CNN and look at more "Miracle on the Hudson" pics.
Is the te9 a compound word?
for want of a D, i would have a "friend" !
yes, that keeps popping out at me
alas, as it stands, i am friendless. :(
Annie - it builds on the suspenseful te7/28
Hi Haz...thanks!
You're welcome - and hello to everyone.
Hi Babblers, and ty Haz for that clue! ty also to Annie for asking. (-:
Hi Haz
Hello cybernan and Aloy!
Hi Aloy and youre welcome....
hi nd good day
anyone have clues for the en 8's?
Hi also to Aloy, Eva and Annie -- had my nose in the grid when you came in :)
ty haz for that great clue
hi nan, bichon
yes, one of the en8's is what ivy does around a pole
only en I have is an uplifting drink for seniors!
howdy annie;)
ty Aloy
lol, cybernan..
en8/45 - French for pregnant, en8/60 - wraps oneself around, en8/45 - en, junior Miss Cruise, rearrange the number after ni4/4
en8s - one is an old fashioned word for being pregnant and the other is twisted together.
hi there, crossy
Sorry, that should be es8. e plus Miss Cruise etc.
the other en8 is a tuffy to clue! en + tis better to give than to re***ve + e***r at your own risk
ty Sandie and Haz
ty Sandie and Haz
You're welcome.
ty haz and sandie
ooh, i like that word better than "pregnant", Haz..
annie, have you tried your new coffee yet?
You're welcome
charming word
not getting last one, though -- Miss Cruise?
Hi fellow babblers! How is this grid?
I know, Aloy, it just sounds better somehow. But then, most French words do, it's just that sort of language.
fun, fun, fun beachboggle
I agree, Haz.. love to listen to it
I need help with the first en 8 please.
kje, I received the coffee yesterday and I am having my second cup as I babble...I love it
hrm. not yet getting the wrapping EN8...
morning all
en8/45 - en, a consonant, German for one, first letters of the number after ni4/4
brb.. phone calleth
NM, got it
en+ string
en + butcher's string
annie, what kind of coffee?
wrapping en 8 start with babies who are born together and then add a vowel.
Eva - think in terms of en plus the sort of thick string you use for wrapping parcels.
Hello Dorens.
nice to see you haz
help for the last en 8, please? -- don''t know first name of junior cruise
hello dorens
ends with murder on the o**** express cybernan
cybernan - es, Mr Geller of the broken spoons, rearrange number before eleven
so glad you like it annie - it is my fave!
bbiab
Thank you Dorens!
so, what kind of coffee is this??
dorens, sorry, was out of the room...Peet's Coffee
Geller? broken spoons?
for those who are REALLY green and eco-friendly: http://www.nbcwashington .com/around_town/shopping/Pee-Chargeab le-Batteries.html
Okay, try e plus first three letters of bodily waste water, and then the rest for es8
yes i've heard that is good annie, never tried it
lol i pocket compost and dont eat things that cast a shadow;)
kje was saying how much she liked their coffee and since I am a coffee fiend I ordered some online and I am enjoying the coffee very much
Mr Geller was very popular here in the seventies, claimed to bend spoons, stop Big Ben, that kind of thing. He's obviously not as famous as he (or I) thought he was.
nan. china japan, these countries are o****al---that is the end of it
ahh remember "the amazing kreskin?"
Ihave the ending, it is the beginning I'm not finding
yes -- I do remember Kreskin
annie.. did you get it ground or whole bean? any particular blend? (i am a coffee fiend too... not as bad as my kids who have to have it freshly ground!)
nan e + i am **re you can find it
thanks Haz, I finally got it m, the en 8
es plus Agatha Christies famous eastward bound train, changing the first vowel in the direction word
I decided to start with the house blend and I ordered the whole bean and ground it myself
te**** anybody? whos up for a good game of te****?
Glad you got there, inge.
Oh -- I see the confusion now -- I am looking for the last en 8, please... I have pregnant, and wraps around
that is what we're cluing nan
e + i am **re you can find the o**** express
There are only 2 en8 words
mmm -- thought you were clueing the es 8
it is es, ot en
that is one dadly word to clue,im leaving it to those who are better at it;/
deadly*
thankyou all very much -- have all three -- I thought haz had clued 3 en 8's earlier. Sorry!
Glad it's sorted out, I made an initial mistake and I think it confused things.
break time -- bbl
all's well that ends well
That would make a good name for a play.
indeed
You think so Haz? I dunno - it might give away to much of them ending. It would never be popular.
too
the
hi vi
*wonders whether to give up and disappear again*
Hi Vicuna, please stay
Ah, but then it could be just to confuse the audience.
Hello. =D
annie you are in the grid. i am often, so is stid, but i don't remember seeing you there
You know, make them think it's going to be fine but then hit them with a shock.
crossy hands vic a nice leather club jacket....
Ahh, sneaky. Like calling your play "Hamlet" and then not even having it be set in a small village!
yes, I see it....it has been there before too
Wow, crosshair! Thanks!
Exactly.
ANd then being long-dead so theatre-goers can't demand their money back.
Midsummer's Night Dream - with members of the cast in ski gear
and starting a bunch of rumors about who you really are and did you really write all those plays yourself?
... and awake.
And day time
Exactly. It's all about getting people talking.
Clearly we should all have careers in marketing.
I think so. Do you make lots of money in marketing?
Me? No. But I hear there are people who do.
The Rich Marketeeers?
i know a couple. i wouldn't want to be one
Especially if you're willing to market cigarettes, and alcohol to minors, and weapons to unstable governments, and so forth.
The Merchant of Venice working for Madison Avenue?
sounds good annie. and then again, how bout starbucks?
The Merchant of Venice is probably the marketer who convinced that casino in Vegas to build the fake canals and gondolas and all.
It makes me laugh every time I see it. What possessed them?
They are possessed
oh i was actually there vi.. with a friend on the way to a party associated with the convention she was there for... and it was amazing, rushing through the halls, looking up at the sky (at 8:30 pm) and then hearing the gondoliers singing
they have the ceiling looking like a blue sky with a couple of clouds.. you would swear it was daytime... eerie
My brother (who's a climber) did a funny over-the-top gig at a Vegas convention once, rapelling down from the ceiling wearing fake lederhosen and an Austrian hat. They really are completely nutso.
Did he yodel as he descended?
and a teacher at my school who just loves las vegas thinks she doesn't need to go to paris cause she has been to the paris hotel and sat at the café and eaten french dip
No, he did not have to yodel, thank goodness!
Have you slapped that woman hard, Dorens?
vegas has turned into disneyland for adults... all plastic and makebelieve... and americans seem to love that
Maybe it's just as well if people like that stay home so folks in other countries don't get even worse impressions of US-ians. Still... a teacher!
But there's such a word of difference between a pastiche and the real thing. You just get a sanitised version that really is a fantasy.
Haz1558 .. I total agree. I have seen such changes since I started babble in 2005
*world of difference
ha.. no haz. she is terrific. She is editor of a menswear retailing magazine and every august they have a huge convention... and there are parties everywhere in the evening. this was a party at the venetian hotel... she isn't into that stuff... but the party was fun and the food delicious (wolfgang puck's restaurant0
Hello Christa - you've read the profile? Lots of people feel the same way, I think.
(I think Haz was suggesting slapping the teacher, not your friend, Doren!)
Oh, slap everyone if it makes them see sense i.e what you think.
the teacher is one of those young women who really shouldn't be teaching... pathetic. and i really have a hard time being collegial with such a moron
(Not that I would advocate slapping anyone, being a pacifist, and all. But I do understand the temptation.)
You're quite right, Vicuna. Virtual slaps are the best.
i'd love to slap this one, for several reasons. but guidance counselors who teach conflict resolution can't quite get away with that
why won't it take rubescent???
enable mustn't like the word, though it sounds very nice to me.
lol, Doren. Back to the marketing! Hard to market yourself as a conflict resolver after fisticuffs in the school hallway!
Oh Dorens, sometimes conflict resolution consists of knocking heads together.
Enable ought to be blushing at that omission!
if you slap them unconscious, the conflict will be over!
just glanced through your profile haz.... wish more people felt that way. i am getting tired of hearing excruciating details of some peopes' lives. suppose i've been guilty of a bit of it myself once in a while, but it seems insufferable sometimes
May I have a clue for ne 7/32 please? What is the third letter?
ne7/32 - ne + liquid bodily waste
I know. In my case I've been babbling for quite a while and feel that I could tell people's life stories for them. Closing the chat log has been a blessing. I only emerge when I think it's safe.
Which leads me to realize that I never actually entered the liquid bodily waste in its own right. Sometimes my density astonishes me. Time to try "etna" just on principle.
thanks vicuna
I think Dr_G should make a choice of chat logs. There could be the under-13 chat log, the pet discussion chat log, the injury and sickness chat log, the trouble with children chat log, and the frivolous flippancy chat log.
No go with etna? I checked just in case as well!
I know where I'd be.
daily reports on every little thing every one of their children do every day. and far too many unnecessary reports on pets digestive systems (i almost said something the other day, but lack the nerve)
Or there could just be the spelling-out-clues log versus the obscure-and-difficult-clues log.
I know where I'd be.
I lenjoy having conversations with people, not listening to monologues of likes and dislikes.
oh funny. i tried etna too
conversations rather than daily checking of the monotony
and I tried nini just in case the spelling of the goose was different
and i tried ninnie since there are so many of us
Whenever etna is in the grid, it's always one of the last words I find... Even though I generally get ante right away. This makes me feel exceptionally stupid every time!
lol, I tried ninnie, too.
ANd ninnier.
niner
I've often talked about how exceptionally stupid you are, Vicuna. Tone deaf and stupid, it must be difficult.....
Neener
It is, Haz. Believe me, it is. *sigh*
Hello torgone!
Are you taunting us, tor?
Hi torgone
Good morning ..
good morning tor
No that would be "Neener neener"
Half a taunt just doesn't cut it, eh?
It's just a tauntlet at that point
Hello, Trifioso.
I like the sound of a tauntlet.
It should go nicely with the throwing down of a gauntlet.
If you're writing a poem about 'The duel'
Good point, Haz. *smack* And your mothers smells of elderberries!
All of thems does.
I say neener to you Sir. How do you answer my tauntlet?
just got off the phone. i seem to have missed wonderful conversation
lol, tor
Not really ..
Nah!
I say to you 'Fie' Here's mud in your eye, and at your feet I throw down my gauntlet!
Isn't "here's mud in your eye" supposed to be more of a toast than a tauntlet? I think you're sending mixed messages, Haz.
It doesn't scan too well, but we've got that tauntlet and gauntlet rhyming nicely.
*musing* You could spit in his eye, of course, but I think that's a full-fledged taunt at that point.
I don't know. I think mud in anybody's eye would cause them to act on tauntlets and throw down gauntlets.
That's why knights wore armour - to avoid mud in their eye.
Okay. And the next line can be something about "And your unclet is cuckolded by your aunlet."
That's auntlet. *sigh*
I think the auntlet has had problems with her show off daughter - the flauntlet.
that did it! I just fell off my chair laughing
And after someone gets killed in the ensuing duel, they can become a hauntlet.
I want to go pick up chicklets
Oh good! I love it when we cause bodily injury on babble.
Ah yes, the flauntlet - didn't she go off on a jauntlet with the jester?
***perchance can jauntlet work in here somehow? Good Sir Knight's trip to the armory.***
Yes, the hussy!
LoriP!!!
I think you're right - sense can come from Canada!
Vic! G'ad almost afternoon Babblers.
*dusts off AnnieB and sets her back in her chair*
Thank you all! I needed a good laugh and someone to say what I have been thinking!
I have visions of the flauntlet going for a walk - the sauntlet.
Hello hootowl!
You are all very talented wordies!
thank you, Vicuna.....is Act II coming up or is there an intermission?
I have finally broken my months long silence and have embarked on fontlet.
hi haz
finally made my morning coffee (latte actually) and come back to read more hilarity... this is a good chog... but doesn't anyone want to whine about anything? thn we might have an awwwwwntlet?
G'd afternoon Hot, Dorens, Annie anyone I missed
hi lori nice to see you again too
Hi Lori...glad to see you
hahaha - hot I'm not! Hi all
hi hoot
No Act II. The flauntlet has eloped, the unclet has throttled the auntlet, the tauntleted knight is slain, and the curtain goes down on the whole mess.
Dorens on to it, something of an awwwwwnlet could be a nice descriptor.
But the hauntlet?
Most of the chog stuff is a yawnlet.
Well, that was great....sort of Mel Brookish
While the puzzled audience says amongst themselves, "Wait, that was the play they advertized as "All's Well that Ends Well?????""
nice tying together there vi
It's so nice to be able to laugh!
And Shakespeare himself comes out (in the form of a hauntlet, of course) to give a little vauntlet about his wonderful achievements.
Nothing like a good riblet.
Oh, a vauntlet! The athletic one?
No, the boastful one.
No - it would be the vaultlet, wouldn't it?
Wouldn't the athletic one be a vaultlet?
We share a brain cell, Vi.
Which coincidentally is also the place where Romeo and Juliet snuffed it.
It's a good cell, isn't it Haz.
we admire it from afar
Yes indeed.
(Not the same sort of cell where Friar Lawrence lives, of course. We're co-cogitators, not co-habitators.)
Sometimes we're co-agitators.
Just keep stirring the pot!
***snickering uproariously***
howdy folks
Hello Takuma.
Hello, Takuma! Jump in - the broth is fine!
Why, Lori. What can you mean?
hi takuma... another long time no see
G'd afternoon Takuma
broth meaning the chat, vi? i haven't looked at the grid in ages now
haz, do you have some sort of aura? while you're here, the others don't chat??? it's been a while and I haven't seen "them" yet
Covens and cauldrons and tauntlets, oh my!
Yep. Contained within the proverbially stirred pot, of course.
I'm not sure, Dorens.
it's because we are all afraid to chat when Haz in on
is on
Who you calling a coven, Lori? Was that a tauntlet?
Oh really?
no reason to fear haz... she speaks righteously
It strkes me that you're never afraid to chat.
More of a barblet really...
lol lori!
indeed lori
oh, are we throwing gauntlets around again? oh goody!
Ah well. I can live with that.
we have had hilarity here... no reason to stop, is there?
Annie's been collecting and stockpiling all the thrown gauntlets. She's sufficiently armed for an octopus at this point!
annie. i just checked peets website, and they do sell in some nj stores, so i think i'll pick up some beans and see. the info on their coffee shops is interesting, tho... wish we had one of those here
but will she throw them down, vi, that is the question
Okay, time I went. Obviously Trif has something majorly important to say and I'll be cramping her style. Bye for now.
I have nothing to say
No! Clear the air! Talklet!
Awwwwwntlet, Haz!
no haz.... peaceful conflict resolution... it is possible for you both to be on.............
really, I don't! I just read your bio and got really intimidated, is all....
Hazel! I am putting all the gauntlets in my vaultlet
(well placed awwww, vi)
Haz, Dorens will be "resolving conflicts" again if you don't watch out! There will be cracked heads!
haz you belong here... room for everyone.... (and I just might try out this newfangled headcracking rather than reflective listening)
Annie will have them on e-bay as we type.....
Do I have to get my winglets out and start hovering again?
Sigh. So, Doren, this "grid" of which you speak...
sounds like the chat room is on the dangerous side today.. (ducks)
and a cheery good day, afternoon, evening to all
Howdy, rururocks. Yes, beware of flying rhymes.
Not a't'all. I do believe people are sensitive, because it is readily misinterpereted, the difference between chat and all out therapy....
my cat just threw up and not in the kitchen. On the carpet in the living room
yah vi... maybe we will have to look for words here
hi ruru and peri... it is safe
it was a whopping 11 degrees F when I got up. Now 14 degrees
found 2 en8
So Haz left with one of my gauntlets?
peri is determined to be cheery
9 and 13 here peri... gonna be 8 when i get up tomorrow...
I am so embarrsassed now. My cousin, aknitter, told me about this place, and invited me to check it out. the first couple of days i was on, all I did was try to figure out the puzzles (duh). then I got sidetracked into reading the chog, and there was someone sharing something pretty personal, so I thought it was okay to talk about real life here.
I saw there was an es 8 earlier, but trouble with internet connection and missed the clue
Was it yours, Annie? Finders keepers?
I am sure trying to be
Grab her Annie, don't let ger steal your garblet!
you can accessorize those gauntlets you know...
Trifioso, it's definitely okay to talk about real life.
keep them locked up annie, don't let them out
yes tri, we all do it, honestly
People do enjoy getting to know one another.
then I read Haz's profile, and I am totally, totally, scarlet. seems I inadvertently was one of the people she vehemently HATES, and her posts today would certainly support my theory
Not a thing wrong with real life. We all do it.
The frustration for some of us merely comes with overkill.
Haz does not agree with you, lori.
And I doubt you are top of Haz's list, Trifioso!
help with te7 please
peri e + i am **re you can get this + murder on the o**** express
Lori! Speak for yourself! I, for one, utterly deny having any real life!
haz doesn't hate anyone tri (not that i am in her head.. just trying to empathise and could be wrong)
vic, look at how she responded to me at 9:54, and the poist before that
I am waiting for Vicuna to be unaware of my hovering then I will steal back my gauntlet and bop her with my panlet
post
I beg to differ Tri. I had a real life once, but it was unsuitable, so I ignore it now....
she just likes the chat to not get bogged down in these things.... keep it light, clever, word oriented, not a daily blog
Ouch!
i am just so embarrassed (being quite for the next year and a half, now, as she suggests....)
thanks, Dorens, never would have found that one
don't take it personally tri... haz doesn't work that way...
stealth annie
Haz, get back here!
don't take it personally, ruru? who did she name when she stomped out?
Annie hovers softly, and carries a big panlet. lolol
lighten up trif
Trifioso, I think you're overreacting. If you read her profile again you will note that she never says anything about forbidding all personal conversation. She repeatedly uses modifiers such as "endlessly repeated," etc.
Hazel does not stomp....she glides via Ginger Rogers
is there an ot8?
she just used that as a convenient exit...there is no issue
dunno peri, i'm listless
I am too
ot peri? te 9
indeed annie... glides like the plane into the hudson river yesterday
can't be an ot...
ok then, help with the te7 or te9 pls
tri everyone gets stuck on certain words and teh clues (while trying to be helpful) don't connect and you have to ask for another view..
Well, Trif, she could just as well be bewailing that you hate her because she's the one you accused of frightening her! Maybe you do, of course, but I'm thinking that's a needlessly strong word for either of you to be accusing the other of.
9 is an extension of the 7. What this chat currently suffers from te 7....
dorens...that was a miracle...waterways came so quickly
te7/28 - even smaller
found 2 te7, thanks
my issue is the stupid an 6..
Or am I cluing the wrong te7? hmmm...
hi all. we all have our pet peeves related to chog/ cluing so don't take it too seriously Trif
miracle + from what i've heard, the pilot was an ace and really handled it brilliantly
Aha! yes!
an 6 is so blessed. ;p
thanks lori. i didn't have that one either
hi pug
got the te8, thanks
but not the te9
well, well. well. LoriP, you take a wring turn at the ocean?
thank you lori.. bless you oh great one...
add more so end Peri
good morning everyone
hah! i have a te9, nut not a te8

G'd afternoon BR, even I can only stay silent for so long.... :p

hint for te9?
there's sh8
It's a mechanical device - maintains te7/28 on a chain or belt ..
hi babrab. gall. te9 more te7, or one who causes te7?
the te9 is actually a pretty familiar word for some cyclists or people who work on cars, peri
I never heard it before
thank vi. and a sh7 too
same here
That's not to say it's not stupid, just that it's not as contrived as it looks ;)

help with the 8's I need pls. I have enx2, es and te
and i should go straighten it up, and wash the pots and pans from last night's dinner as well, so I'm out for a while... i never spent this much time in babble and only ended up with 95 words to show for it. too much chatting. bye all
Any help for the blasted FU7 please? last word....
bye dorens
it's the silliest word pug
do you have the 4/10 before it?
add a comparative ending to fu4
fu4 is pretty silly
sh 7 --- extend the sh 5 luster to mean sh 5 like; the sh 8 is the comparative of the sh 5
TY VM Grant & fireworks
got the sh8, thanks BR
WTG
add a more so ending
congrats, pug
wtg pug my clue was a day late and a dollar short as usual
ty for trying west : )
its always feast or famine with clues
yw ;)
besides sometimes not every clue works for every player so sometimes several to pick from is a good thing
you're very kind
it's true dear
Ha! One of my favorite words is in the grid .. bi4/6 ..
I have 4 bi4/6, tor, which one is it?
must go pick up new prescription. 8 straight days of blood pressure headache is quite enough! Perhaps back to clue later.Happy Babbling all!
hope you feel better pug
Although I guess it's offensive to some .. I just think it sounds funny
ty dear! Le Poof!
I think I know which one Tor means...
brb
put vinegar on it peri
I think of Fawlty Towers when I see it .. You cloth-eared bi** ..
bu 6/27 I have the plural could I get a clue for the other?
Hi all :-)
hi Amy
LOL, Tor. It's one of those horrible words that I'm glad exists. It's like "git", it's so hard and short, you can really spit it out.
haha hi ruru... yikes I was thinking my entrance killed the chog
bu 6 -- more active
oh. fish me
I was sticking with the R.. thanks BR
the bi 4/6 is more than a codswallop word
OH Nancy Boy, How are ya? I'm glad you're here, I have a question...
(because I noticed your flag)
some may want to ce 7/36 it
Shoot, BlueAndAmy :)
Sooooo I can remember watching Doctor Who when I was really young, the old Doctor Whos... then recently, I was introduced to the NEW Doctor Who...
in 7 and peppermint and the color of thyme
Uh huh? :)
and not only am I slightly-more-than-a-little-addicted-a nd-in-love-with-all-of-the-characters. ....
but I understand it is quite the phenomenon over there
bab that has to be the dumbest song in creation
afternoon everyone
Scarily so, Blue. Can't -stand- the show myself, but when the new series came out, nobody could get enough of it! Dr Who mania.
Is it really that big a deal? Like, it's really huge, right?
hi katie
Hi Kaiie :-)
massive spin offs in toys as well
::gasp:: but WHY, Nancy Boy?
WHY can't you STAND it???
does your chewing gum lose its flavor on the bedpost over night?
I mean, GRANTED, it's a LITTLE on the campy side.... hahaha
campy? they live in tents?
that was a good song
lol
but then again, so was Xena Warrior Princess, and that's what made it so awesome
a little?????
Well I have no problem with the "campy" side Blue (hell, just look at my name) but...I dunno. Not my cup of tea, I need chick flicks or slashers with tons of fake blood.
HA that's quite the spread
chick flicks OR slasher films
I think I'm just the wrong age for it, my niece and nephew think it's fantastic
Takes all sorts ;) also, the actor who played Doctor Who was kind of weedy. His adam's apple could've taken somebody's eye out!
I am missing an 8
Lol I have yet to see chick flicks and slasher movies successfully combined
Yeah, but what about Captain Jack? .... He's enough to make up for THAT.
ru 6 --add a trigonometric function
Is Torchwood any good? I'm downloading the first episode to see if I like it
how'd you know that's the one I need?
and ty
ask Ata, she is a massive fan, i've never seen it myself
I am weedy?
ooooo I will ask her, thanks Katie
Torchwood is another one of those things I've never watched :D sorry, I'm a really awful Brit.
loved the Jekyll miniseries on BBC!
Hahaha Babble, have you ever seen it?
You ARE Nancy Boy.
Hahaha
most of the stuff I watch is american :-) house, cold case, bones, numbers, dexter.......
su 7 --- add, movie title: **** Brockovich
peri: 6/8's-2en,1es,1in, 1te, 1is.
I apologise ;) In my defence, tho, I come from an American mum and a Korean dad!
doesn't work
add consonant before movie title
needs another letter
I still say pants instead of trousers. With the issue that some people now think I own leather underwear, rather than leather pants.
ty une
yw ;-)
Yeah, but Doctor Who is in a class all its own..... ::sigh:: they're all so dreamy once you get into it... Doctor Who with his hot-nerd appeal.... Captain Jack with his I'll-do-anything-with-two-legs energy..... Martha -- just because she's Martha.....
su 7 -- underwater ship and erin Brockovich
Hahaha Nancy, well Do you??
ty bab and une I have it now
daughter #3's name too
LOL Blue. Just the american pants, I promise ;) I absolutely adore them as well, though they make me look a bit emaciated
su 6 -- underwater ship and seine
urban dictionary says weedy's a pothead . . . thought it meant tall and skinny! LOL
*dreaming of being able to look emaciated*
leather pants? -- didn't know leather got aroused
haha that's what I thought too, Une!
hi all (and what a remark to come in on BR!)
Lol babble
Hi Jmc!!!!!!!
glad i'm not the only one, blue! :-)

I used to work for a religious nonprofit and "Onward Christian Soldiers" was VERY much frowned upon! :-)
8/60
une, that is hilarious! I feel for her, she looks frozen
I will pay your one-way ticket to Gaza, crosy
thanks west
a friend is nice,but a enemy..ahh a good enemy can last a lifetime and will always tell you how it is and never sugarcoat things:)
kje, she's reconsidering settling eventually in the Rockies!
may I have a clue for the in8
Onward Christian Soldier is a much misunderstood song.
cool can I count you an enemy then crossy?
it's a lot like the en8 peri
Ahhh, the world never will get it. Fighting for peace is like screwing for virginity.
This grid is hard!! Golly gee and stuff...:(
hey, chickie!
thanks, have all the 8's now
indeed, nancy!
amen nancyboy
hiya Une :)
naw jm,i have my enemy already same one last 35 years..spots full

cause i came back on the scene katie;)
oooh kinky BR
not for long crossy......off to the pb :-)
LOL, Crossy.
iad avoid the napalm during sex br..it chafes
whatever works for you, BR ;)
each to their own BR each to their own
Hahaha hope you're not speaking from personal experience Crossy!
crossy trudges off to the pb..to mix napalm....
in the context of war and virginity
Hi Babblers
hey, aloy!
hi aloy
Hi Aloyi!!
hi again
pax, Aloyisius
So who else keeps adding tena after the tena lady adverts?
i see no problem with warring virgins....
Hi Nan! :-)
Orange juice and petrol, Crossy. Well, according to Brad Pitt in Fight Club (phwoar)
hey, nan!
looks like a nice lively chat ... good to heat things up on such a cooold day!
can i use grapefruit juice?
gee crossy hope you don't use napalm in the PB it will mess it up for the rest of us!
I'm sure Brad would know the answer crossy
You'll have to ask Brad, Crossy. And slip him my number at the same time ;)
mm have to ask him i suppose....
Oh Katie, SNAP :D
check his scrpt wrtter instead
crossy the dissolute
testing
testing
**gasp** surely it's his own words!!

Hi Peri :-)
hey, peri :-)
Check the author of Fight Club! Chuck Palahniasfshj!afjfjsf#kajf (impossible last name to spell)
come in and join the insaity
hated that movie my son loved it
Yeah, I wasn't a big fan either.
never seen it, I really need to get out more
so far we have discussed farting(borting) cows ,pooting sheep and making naplam out of orange juice and gasline:)
same here my son really likes pahlaniuk (or whatever)
I loved it. I love Brad Pitt and you'll never find a finer crazy lady than Bonham Carter
shoot I only see movies on my dvd player
It's the intellectual conversation I come here for ;-)
last time i went to a movie cinema,i almost needed a surgeon and the jaws of life to get out of that torture device they call a chair:/
are you on the wrong blog katie!!! lol
LOL Katie
has anyone seen the new Brideshead?
I dunno... Mia Kirshner can REALLY do crazy....
I have it in my Netflix queue west....love Emma Thompson
of course it is katie,coming here for intelectual conversation is like standing and watching a car wreck to learn about mechanics:)
I went to see the Dark Knight in an imax last time. It was very very good
Lol crossy
*chat
HAHAHAhaha Crossy
Blue, did you see Bonham Carter as Ophelia? ;) Mind you, Kate Winslet took that role rather, er, to heart, as well.
No, never saw it! What'd I miss? Was it good?
ohhh! just monkyed the te 9/54! wheee!
wtg crossy
gj, cross
Well I have huge problems with Branagh so I couldn't make myself like any film of his. The Mel Gibson version of Hamlet was pretty good tho
The Stratton Story had some suspense
whew! now i need to take up smoking again:)
boo Mel Gibson
do not get me started on Braveheart!!!!!!!!
or why ever single film he does now has to have God in it!
never saw that one either, NancyBoy...
bring back lethal weapon!
mel had his good movies... a couple of them
HIS God
Lethal weapon 1 & 2
exactly jmc exactly
we are currently watching kevin costner flicks
Oh Crossy, I can now finally -legally- smoke again now that I'm eighteen... Thought I was going crazy until I realized that my fake ID would work for cigarettes, too!
Let's talk about Nicholas Cage instead
18?? put the coffin nails down kid!
an 6-7 combo, please?
oh nancyboy my hubbie died because he smoked
yes, must pay an exorbitant amount to feed your tumor
see lots of tobacco widows in here
Oh Nance were you legal, made illegal and now legal again?
nan, it has to do with putting holy oil on someone
you play lots of word games sitting in hospital
Nancyboy, with the money you'd save if you DIDN'T buy cigarettes, you could buy yourself some leather trousers that don't make you look emaciated!
an6/7 to smear or rub with oil
ty aloy
hi BzznBea.. yw, jmc
ty too bzzn
and jesus knelt before the beggar and an**** his feet with oil etc
ty for that one b
Hello all.
howdy bzz;)
Yup, Katie! I'd smoked a couple of times when it was legal at sixteen, sort of socially...I'd just got addicted when it became illegal! horrible.
hi bzzn
hows the temp in NC, Bzzn?
Hi Bzzn!
A tit bit nipply, Aloy.
nancyboy if we catch you smoking every last one of us will send you a virus
anoint
I always wondered what it must have been like for people caught in the age gap when the law changed
oops -- sorry -- chocolate in the pb?
lol, cybernan.. that would be it
I think there is napalm cyber
i know there is gasoline and grapefruit juice.....
ask crossy
pb sounds a bit scary today
well the grapefruit juice isint that bad
But Crossy, it's enough of a choice as not smoking! I restarted when I turned 18 to help suppress my appetite, and it worked really well, so I just carried on.
gee -- what happened to the pb ? -- not as friendly as it used to be!
so we will all be extra careful *typing v.e.r.y. s.l.o.w.l.y*
unless the grapefruit juice is laced with napalm..
* What kind of television do horses like? * Saddle-lite TV
ooh, good groaner BR!
want to supress your appetite? only eat things you hate and try eating the smokes instead of lighting them up....good roughage
lacing the grapefurit juice with napalm makes it less scary????
lol BR I've been telling these to my son and he loves them!
My last word is en 8/45. Any clues?
ick chewing tabbacky
you truly are on the right track, NB ---- cancer is an excellent appetite suppressor
en 8 --- add a penny: **nt; and the world wide web: ****rnet
en 8/45= en plus a penny is **nt+ we use the ****rnet to communicate..best i can do:/
lol go with br,s
en8 is french word for pregnant :-)
french term for pregnant, anike.. en + eat your **real for breakfast , get **to the habit of **nding to your good health
Heyyyy, easy everyone! C'mon, the bablog isn't judgemental about me being gay, leave the smokes alone ;)
sexual orientation is one thing,watching a kid pay for lung darts when most of us have been there is another;)
I smoke
just thought I would share your load Nancy
well i gave you heck also
i used to
I have never puffed on the dreaded weed
i smoked for 25 years and quit in 2002
impressive, mm
Thanks, Katie ;)
just before my first cancer strangly enough....
even smoked "Flash" while living in France--the cheapest brand at the time LOL
Nancyboy I will never bring up again to you (or Katie) but sitting wathcing my husban die with my 7 year old son left it's mark
ty une
Got the en, TY all. Fireworks

Night jmc and anike
sweet dreams, anike
why farting cows?
we werre talking bout farting cows and the ozone this morning katie
and pooting sheep
OK that makes sense, but I am not becoming a vegi even for the environment
time for me to go too.. see you all next grid. Hope the pb is a safe zone by then, lol. byeee
Bye Aloy
good morning all
be well, Aloyisius
Morning boo
a bovine cap and trade program undoubtedly would be good environmental policy
nor i,kind of reminds me of the one about the hair and the beear going to the bathroom together in the wwods and the bear looks over at the rabbit and says"excuse me,but do you have a problem with poop sticking to your fur?" and the rabbit says "no why?" and the bear grabs the rabbit and uses him to wipe his bum!...mmm sorry bad taste but it just blurted out
hare* bear*
damn typos!
morning all...am stuck on the f7. is it a fishie?
help with ne7 pls
HaHAHAHAAaaaa crossy that was cute
told that to my 15 year old the other day and he laughed for an hour..he hears worse at school

thanks br
thanks BR
brb, laundry
I'm off to chill for a bit. See you all later :-)
doing any sunning today, skooj?
Actually! I remembered, since I'm around a bunch of intelligent peolpe (that doesn't happen to me often), I wanna address a rumour I heard. IS cannabis healthier to smoke than tobacco?
tc katie
*people. Oops.
buth are just as bad in thier way...cannibis has less chemicals per use,but still....
Later, Katie :)
cant live life stoned to the gill either
Hahaha, br. I need mexico now
Really, Cross? I know you hear bad things about THC being linked with schizophrenia but there's -so- much more press about the danger of cigarettes, it seemed plausible that weed was healthier
gave all that up in 1994 also
it is heathier like drinking belladonna tea is easier on you than drinking a lye cocktail
just a matter of degrees is all
Never tried it, Crossy. I tried ecstasy once and hated the kind of headachey, dizzy, glazed feeling, so I never tried any other drugs
How many words today?
155 :)
STAY AWAY FROM E! ive seen tose cut with stryctnine
Thanks.
those
further clue for ne7 plz
I don't need telling twice! The ONLY good thing about it was the initial rush and being able to stay up and dance all night, which I can do anyway. Completely stupid to even try it.
we had some exstacy tabs circle through toronto 2 years ago that killed 15 people
those were cut with warrfarin
rat poison
I think that's the most dangerous thing about mandy; you never know what you're getting
indeed
its kind of like finding pill on the side of the road and just taking it
ok sermon over

my father was given LSD by his doctor...didn't help him though , he ended up having a frontal lobotomy.

to an 18 year old kid you're wise, Crossy :) My problem is I have a try-anything-once attitude.
ah but that makes one wiser doesn't it Cross?
i never judge the wisdom in others till i can judge my own:)
I can understand that NB..
re 5/10: re + number - last letter
re 5/10 - to do with kidneys?
well I agree, Kallia! As you go through life you leave a piece of youth and replace it with a piece of wisdom.
thank you... couldn't see anything too many n's

oh no monkey (((hugs))) I am sorry to hear that.
the house always seems so empty after something like that
oh poor scsi :( I'm sorry
firewords
Thank you. It was the only choice. The biopsy wound was being interfered with by the cyst under it, wouldn't ahve stayed closed, so we decided not to wait for the biopsy results. Then they came in 24 hours after we put her down-- sarcoma.
yay stiddy!
I brought her home after so the dog and Walter could say goodbye. The dog would have looked for her for weeks otherwise.
oh yes, always best to do
that was a good move, monkey. glad walter and the dog were able to say good bye too
clue for en 7 please
en 7 -- add heavy string used to bale hay
en 7: like the in 7 -- en + string word (t5)
Is there something wrong, won't take any words
Still can't even get the FU4 to get to the FU7...help!
hello BR are those wings or hands?
mary it has been slow, but working for me
tx stid and BR!
hello, and yes
Saskia is pretty down about it too, but being a dog at least she was able to cheer herself up by being a total goon in the woods with some puppies today. Walter seems to be taking it very well but at this age it's hard to tell, of ocurse. He did wake up severalk times in the night, very unusual for him since his terrible sleep problems stopped at 14 months old, but he doesn't remember why he woke up. And he's been pretty wild. I thin khe's compensating.
monkey, I'm so very sorry about your loss . . . hugs to you and your family . . .
I think it is a mutant bird
Something is wrong with Babble .. I'm not finding any words ..
I suspect you are right about walter. He will work through it in his own way..
Thank you. We miss her.
right tor -- definitely a babble flaw, and nothing about you!
Torgone, I was on for an hour earlier and I have 28 words...
, n
hello all
sorry for your loss, Monkey Games
so sorry monkey about your dear cat
Yes, Stid. I just make sure to tell him now and then that I'm sad too and that he can always talk to me.
Thank you, folks.
hi stid and everyone!
hello saanich -- out from under the snow yet?
hey peri
FINALLY!!!
first te 6, please? -- tried small, but that was no good
So sad, Monkey, sorry
"more so" of adolescent
LOL good to hear!
!*!FIREWORKS!*!
Thank you. She was only 9. But she never suffered; this took an unusual course and was far more visible than usual, so we were able to make the right decision at the very moment she started to decline-- just in the last week she didn't go out anymore and slept a lot, and started losing weight, but she was never in pain except for a day from the biopsy. And she went out purring, I saw to that. More I could not do.
Congrats, phaeton
it's been a hard winter. 4 wwwks of snow. I caretake summer residences; could not get to them Still doing damage control
ty stid
Yay Phae!
purring is good. easyier on you and the puss
YAY phaeton!
much warmer here today primarily because of less wind; still below zero F
Yes, it makes me feel better that she was purring. She wasn't one of these "easy purrers"-- when she purred she meant it.
clue for the first en 8/45
awwwwww
(((((((MONKEY)))))))
Thanks.
and who best to know than you Monkey. I know you miss her.
en 8#1 is french pregnant apparently
en5 pls
en + a penny coin with extra vowel in the middle + 2/3 of english 4:00 drink
MOnkey, the purring would have gotten to me, I would have been crying buckets.
en 5: to proceed from or follow on? en + girl's name
"i" before "e" rule does not work in en8
sheesh, thanks stid
back from phone call.. Ken is in sanibel island boasting about 76 degree weather!
hmph. *grumpy mama look at ken*
I love Sanibel. been there twice
us please?
The vet also said if it was his cat he would have done everything we did, step for step-- needle biopsy two months ago, which said benign, then when it started growing so unbelievably fast, x-rays followed by a surgical biopsy when the x-rays looked like it could be easily removed, then facing facts when the cyst interfered with the biopsy spot... Peri, I WAS crying buckets. And all the way home too.
no, because it's french. it's going to be backwards and inside out and upside down.
but he isn't enjoying it cause he misses me ;-)
yeah, right. (there there dorens...)
so next time he takes you along, right?
yes it is a special place, saani,. yes, he told me to email him my april vacation dates so he can book this afternoon!
I WANT to go to Sanibel Island too
us is babblet. US + National Education Association
oh monkey, you know you did what you could and your cat I'm sure knew that too. I wish we were as kind to people.
we'll work on that peri
ty stid
i said that earlier today stid... said us is babblet.. us + my teacher's union and that didn't work for people
Thank you, Saan. OK, here comes my husband to put on mindless entertainment-- which I surely could use. Catch you folks later! Thank you for all the support. I love you people.
ok, Dorens
thanks stid for the babblet -- had not run into that one gefore
35 left, bbs
i'm down to 29 and don't really want to list
ne 7, please
Then sit up straight
evening everyone
later monkey
ne plus UR 5/12
hi kitt!
Hey Ata, how you doing?
I am fading out, I think I need to get up and get my day started. Only have a couple more hours at home and so much to do!
hey katie
see you-all tomorrow/soon!
bu6-27 please
*!* ta da *!* -- thanks for the help everyone :)
being cross at esso service stations for ruining my nice happy diet!
congrats nan
YAY nan! *poof*
bye stid
Oh no Ata, what happened?
forced you to eat, did they ata?
they did cnan! LOL
and what kind of choclate did they force on you?
clue for es 8/45
what did they force you to eat?
no, actually, after a long saga about picking my car up from renault, I ended up with a really swimmy migraine headache and I just had to stop and get something to eat and drink cos I dont think I could have driven home otherwise
and I *thought* I found things that were realtively healthy, at least for garages, but no! ha! so screwed today!
es + express train to the east -- change first vowel
yes, and then you had to eat really fattening food... I hate when that happens to me
I see we fell for the "I'll point when I get home" trick
I had no choice, it was throw up everywhere in car or eat *something*!!!! hey, I avoided chocolate!!!!
lol
silly me thinking low fat yoghurt drinks and a salmon and salad sandwich were remotely healthy. I should have jjust eaten chocolate!!
That's good, but you haven't answered the question.........what did you eat?
there :P
anyone want clues before I leave?
It is sooooo frustrating when you try and be good and then get tripped up
evil Esso! I know! I'm just indignant LOL
dark chocolate is soooo good for you, too
I had a really traumatic day today and managed to drive past two McDonalds, I was very proud of myselves
i had pho for lunch. :)
Myself!
sipping tea and fresh chocolate chip cookies here... )
but really, this was a no choice thing. Getting yoghurt or milk into my body asap seems to be the only way I can stave off really bad migraines
GO YOU!!!
ohhhh minkie that sounds very good
but pah. I have to go into my saved points for alcohol tonight!!
guess not -- see you tomorrow :)
Sometimes you have to do it Ata, just get back on track tomorrow
Bye nan
ata, can you get greek yoghurt 0% fat?
I used the huge chocolate wafers, salt and a ton of butter. I am very happy .
and think of the 10 points you saved up till now
yep!!! and I'll take Hobbit for a loooong walk tomorrow to get some more exercise points for then
any clue for the te 9 please?
minkie stop tempting me! fresh baked chocolate chips are irresistable!!
one who causes te7
TE9 adds a suffix to the TE7
Oooh....thank you!
anyway ... *stops ranting rather shamedly*
I figure one cookie at a time...per day that is, won't kill me. ;)
*hopes minkie put some in the pb, a word will be entered soon!*
at least not right away *grin*
but they need to be eaten fresh!
they do! they taste best fresh!
occasional rants are not frowned upon, ata..
*delivers cookies to the pb on a nice porcelain plate* (then sneaks in pb)
I know ... it's just annoying that such things are annoying!
nice :-)
can we just go in there without saying a word??? never thought about that
I will start the bread for tomorrow in a little while. Want some of that too?
No Dorens, take the pain like the rest of us!!!!!!!
I'm not eating bread, mind you I wasn't drinking either and I'm half way through a bottle of wi**!!! It was a really really bad day!!
Trick to cookies....leave dough to rest at least 24 to 32 hours. (keeping dough away from my son is the true test of cunning.)
awwwwwww, why so bad?
dough........resting............no getting it
I really don't want to talk about it but I'm sure things will pick up, needless to say my 'professional' stance about not getting the job went out the window as they gave me the second major project to be dumped on me
You make the dough, then cover it and stick it in the fridge for 24-32 hours before baking the cookies. ;)
I love raw dough Minkie, I wouldn't be able to leave it
not eating carbs for a afew days... no cookies, no bread, no pasta, no potatoes.... no fun. (but I did just take a nice piece of dark chocolate)
urf. *sigh* *hugs kitt*
*Sending cookies, fresh dough and a new bottle to Katie.*
me too, raw dough is the best
thanks ata & minkie
hard times katie... stiff upper lip and all that
can we go and smack your boss for you?
my daughter just called and told me there were massive layoggs at the company where she works (and just began two months ago). she is thrilled it's not her... not now... but says the te7 is real strong there
ooh.. read layoFFs, not layoGGs
In the summer I make chocolate ice cream with cookie dough in it. I will send out the invites. *note to self: tell Katie's boss....but don't invite him. Walk by his office with fresh cookies...stick tongue out.*
Lol Dorens, I went more down the route of screaming tantrum. Still it got them to take me seriously. I'm going to Counselling next week so hopefully things will pick up.
things will katie, they always do, just sometimes we can't see the future
*hands over yet more wi4*
oh right, it is evening there, you ladies can drink all the wi88 you want... i will wait till later. and toast you both.
how many points is a *proper* size glass of wine? not the 3 sips they talk about?
OOooO wi4 and cookie party! I am so there!
Tonight I have no idea and care even less;-) Like I say, back on track tomorrow!
*proper size glass of wi4 is a tumbler in this case.* Into the pb for the cookies and w4 for you ata. ;)
good for you :)
*shuffles off to join minkie and ata
i'd say 6 - 8 ounces
actually you know, that's a really good idea. brb with wi4 too
we work in ML here I think it is 1 1/2 points per 175ml
Points for wi4? I say bah!
Are we doling out drinks, ladies? I'll have a pint! ...Of vodka.
oh you are doing weightwatchers? points? i see
naughty boy. Have a cookie.
tonic, coke or straight up Nancy?
Intravenously, Katie ;) Wish I could, Minkie - I get most of my daily calorie allowance from drink and chips, so the rest of the time it's celery. Yummy, yummy celery
I actually like celery. Perhaps as a stirrer in a bloody mary for you nb?
ok that's better. except I waylaid by vodka and orange juice before seeing any wine
I have got to learn to drink vodka with something else but OJ now!
Can't go wrong, Minkie ;) I had a bloody mary for breakfast this morning. Tomatoes, celery and worcestershire sauce? practically a meal.
cranberry juice is nice.
vanilla vodka and diet coke
I am a cheap drunk. One drink only for small minks.
vanilla vodka is the *best*
All this talk of drink..I'd better get ready to go out! See you ladies later. Try and behave ;) x
yes, it is........ i
It's the Booze For Lunch Bunch ..
bye nancy, have a good night
vanilla vodka?? *putting coat on to go liquor store*
not a chance nancy boy. ;)
I'm into vodka and tonic at the mo :-)
vanilla vodka is just divine
I have got one hour in the last hour!!!
I think I've managed 2
hello all, never had vanill vodka
*vanilla* even
Heya peri
if you like vanilla, it's the most gorgeous thing
clue for in7/44 please
Hello again.
haz! glitterata!
I make limoncello for the summer months. starting a batch this week!
i'm not much of a drinker but find it amazing at all the flavors they have for vodka
in 7 peppermint the color of thyme
wow. haz tw*** in one day
hiya haz
Hello Haz!!!!!
La glitterata who has been to the groomer and who smells wonderful!
Posh dog ;-)
awwww! how lovely! what a beautiful Spangle!
I know, Dorens. You ready to 'clash my ears'?
hahhahaha
Friday night - not going out - what should I do. Ah BABBLE! Long time no see. Hi All!
hi tinks!
drink eat and do babble to be more specific
hi tinks
I made limencello a few years ago but found the process to be very tedious
I felt bad but I had to go anyway and thought I'd better be quiet rather than say something I'd regret.
Hello tinks.
I thrive on tedious. ;)
I love Vanilla and lemon and almond flavors
hi timks
what do you mix with vanilla vodka or do you drink it straight?
lol katie!
one man's tedious might be another's adventure, who knows?
tinks...sheesh!
almond *gags*
well, no vodka here so I will have a sip of apricot brandy, cheers!!
vanila vodka and coke, root beer.... awesome
I have 2 bottles of amaretto here and I wish I knew someone who liked the stuff
peri! not even three pm!!
My friend made damson vodka which was lovely unfortunately hubby thought it was diluted and drank loads, not a well boy the next day!
my gran keeps giving me bottles for christmas!
love amaretto.........
hey, it is 5 o'clock somewhere!!
over ice
I do Ata.
i liked the stuff ata. about thirty five years ago, another lifetiime
or with coke
Ok joey I will give it a shot soon
Raises paw to volunteer with frances.
I got sick on amaretto many years ago, long story and have not had any since
Ah well. If only people would stick to cooking sherry.
It's 7.40 here peri, borrow our time
Ooh vodka... wishing I had some alcohol here. Stocks all consumed, waiting for payday...
Lol Haz.
well next time I'm in Essex, I'll come and dump it on your doorstep!
I was like that with southern comfort peri
Peri that was me with whisky. Can't even stand the smell of the stuff now.
Could you not sell it on e-bay, Ata?
clue for the second su 7/40 please?
ditto me and Martini LOL
I haven't had a drink since I came back from holiday so I've got my favourite rose wine tonight
my daughter and her husband make "jello shooters" with all the different vodka flavors; me---I'm a mudslide (with real icecream) kind of person.....
another unfortunate incident in my past life occurred with southern comfort. Have not had any of that stuff since either
The second su7/40 is a plural
no! you can't sell alcohol on ebay, apart from collectable bottles lol
clue for in 7/44 please
Really? I didn't know that.
in7/44 wraps itself around much like the en7/44
Just the smell makes me queasy now peri. Anyway going to try diving into the grid now...
I love mudslides, but not with real icecream as it makes me ill, I'm going to do it with soya icecream in the summer
aha! ty!
i suppose because you can't verify the age of the buyer.
I only know that because my best friend collects unopened miniatures and occasionally I find cool things for her on ebay, so I got to know the rules
Good thinking hurshy.
any kids would just have to buy a lot of miniatures LOL
Does she just like the shape of the bottles?
2nd si6/18 pls
Ata I'll make sure my doorstep is clear for Amaretto dumping anytime.
what kind of minis? i have a bunch of older ones. i think some of them are unopened.
bad guys, peri?
si6/18 - a bad person, one who transgresses.
You can verify the age of the buyer through the credit card. There are very strict laws in the US on interstate sales of alcohol. That may change in the next year.
boola boola, hurshy
no, i mean one bad guy
Katie--not many places make a mudslide the way I like so I only have them on occasion at home where my "mix-master' hubby fixes it for me! I bet any kind of ice cream would be good.
her father collected them for years, especially when stationed in Germany, and she just took over when he died. Yes, just the shapes, the labels, sometimes you can get really cool bottles
thanks for the si
if you've got unopened miniatures, joey, sell 'em on ebay! There's a big market so I've discovered!
Think of the dusting if she has them out on display.
go to my profile, send me an email and i will respond with what i have.......
Poor innocent me - what are mudslides?
she has - wait for it - about 300 of them - in a *sealed* cabinet!
well, i didn't know that....... i will have to look.
Wise woman, Ata. That's a lot of dusting avoided.
ice cream, kaluha and either vodka or rum. coat the glass with swirls of chocolate syrup.....yum
thanks for the chat. lunch is over........ see you later
best friend can probably tell you if you have any properly valuable ones, too
sorry---that would be blended....
Frances, I'm innocent as well. I'm waiting to hear what I've been missing.
please send email.............. thanks
could you do such a thing with baileys instead of kahlua?
bye
you can get "mudslide" mix but it doesn't use the ice cream
I don't think you should mess with Baileys.
I love Baileys!! but can't have it here. It is too tempting
Apart from using it in cheesecake, of course, or decorating graves.
I don't see why you couldn't use baileys.....I'v used coconut vodka
Oh that sounds good. Tia maria too Ata?
I just couldn't use any of the coffee liqueurs. the resy sounds gooooorgeous
Decorating graves Haz?
Were you not around when I recounted the story of the traveller's funeral?
please tell it again!
No. Please tell.
One of the last funerals featured a wreath in the shape of a Baileys bottle. Brown carnations, blown up label, the works.
Apparently it was the deceased's favourite tipple.
so fabulous
His hobby was represented by a fish shaped wreath and the fact that he was a man of peace was represented by doves being released.
The rumour is that it was pigeons dipped in flour, but that may just be a rumour.
couldn't they get the flowers for a dove wreath?
Must check on youtube to see if it is there. Sounds a riot.
LOL Haz
Come to think of it, I think there were some doves featured in flowers somewhere along the line.
that will live in Ballymena history for ever
Frances, I don't know whether there would be any footage!
ooOo...dibs on the pigeons. *licks lips*
the travellers have all been very quiet recently, or have you just not discovered anything interesting?
I'm telling you, I wish I could be a fly on the wall of the local florists when the mourners pile in with their requests.
25 left bbl
They've been quiet recently, Ata, but first communion will be coming up in February, I think, so pink stretch limos will be about.
And light-up tiaras.
I'm still horrified by that BBC First Communion programme from last year
5 hours in and I finally have nbt ..
I know. But you can bet that lots of them will have watched it and loved it.
and taking inspiration from it
Slow down, torgone, you'll make us all feel bad.
does watching make them evil and demented?
Absolutely, Ata, planning on how to do bigger and gaudier this year.
I'm sorry .. Guess I won't gloat about having 53 left ..
oh yes. you'll have to learn how to use your camera and go down and take pictures
and does anyone force you to watch
Nobody forced me to watch, that's true.
But can I not watch and express an opinion on what I've seen?
Ok...enough fun for me. Back into the studio. Bye all.
but it was impossible not to watch
Bye Minkie.
not impossible, people can turn the television off if nothing else
bye haz :) poof!
yes ...
I have been very quiet trying to zip through this and as a result have a nice 111 left. Still not finished I think. Those with lunch hours are back to work, I think. Time for me to warm left overs. Nice soup from yesterday.
go go stidgmere!
Atalante, you are such a cheerleader. Yeh.
Yes, and I do turn the television off if I don't want to watch. I wanted to watch this programme because it featured local people. It featured differing attitudes to the taking of First Communion and it was interesting and mind-boggling at the same time.
it was. I learnt a lot watching it, both about first communions, and about people
oh Haz!!
Yes?
Hello Dead Pigeon conversation interrupterer!!!!!!
I might have to come and visit you at some point in the next year! I got accepted onto the MSc I wanted, which is based at Coleraine, and I *think* we have to go over there for a week at some point
Oh well done Ata!
LIZZZZ!!
Hello Liz!
LMAO I love my I see dead fish t-shirt
hi Haz, hell Ata :)
hell? TY!!
It has been a surreal few days on facebook Dead Fish Woman :)
See, Liz has you sussed.
sorry that should have said hello lol
hi all, early update of the icon themes, about to roll back into bed. Tomorrow should be fun in the icon game: theme is Your Favorite Babblet.
hi Sprite
oh that will be fun!
hello, sprite
I think so too, am looking forward to seeing it playing out.
how far is Coleraine from you? Would I be able to drive down and visit?
It's about 20 miles so not far.
love your icon too, BabbleRabble. Bye all, have fun today and sleep well tonight.
really? close!!! wow. So maybe I might get to see you *and* Liz this year!
It looks like it - smugness will abound!
popping in for just a second with a new joke for BR from my daughter! ;-)
What do you say when you see an empty parrot cage?
You still thinking of bringing the Hobbit over then Ata? :)
fireworks here
definitely!
*hangs around for the punch line*
that woud be so much fun
Polygon
wtg wvteach
lol *poof*
husband wants to go here, there and everywhere on holiday this year, and I just said fine, but I want to get over to Sark at some point, and he readily agreed :D
Just don't come when I'm in Peru
I'm be Tolkien-izing then anyway! Hence not being with you in peru!
*Doh* slaps head!
by the way ... is this normal behaviour: http://tinyurl.com/7j22zo
Hey did I tell you I booked to stay on for a week and travel down to Lake Titicaca for a spot of sight seeing after the trek?
oh *wow*!
you're not going to go to climb Ben Fogle's mountain?
LOL at the piccy - was it chasing Hobbit?
I have *no* idea! I've never seen a sheep do that!!
Tempting - but no!!! I'm getting (get this!) the Orient Express train from Cusco to Puno and then staying there for a while
It looks like the sheep is trying to get some roughage.
is that normal sheep behaviour>
you lucky girl!
And staying out on two of the floating islands as well
I am :)
Ata -- yes, I've seen sheep do that before.
*dies of enviousness*
I'lll flickr lots of photos :P
they look so funny like that!
good!
Hello, Good People.
Liz -- sounds like a fabulous trip. Have you ever read Toot & Puddles? I'm the one who likes to stay home and Husband is the one who wants an adventure!
Viiiiii!1ii1i1i1i1i1i1i111111
And condolences to Ata on her recent death.
Hello Vi!
ty
Ata - http://tinyurl.com/966gkf
Toot & Puddles? Never heard of it!
I thought I likes this grid, but now I'm not so sure.
*wow*
I know Toot & Puddles. They're pigs.
Order the toot and puddles from the library. Great books for kids (and grown ups.)
Toot & Puddles are two pigs that are best friends and live together; one a home body, one a world traveler
Who live in Woodcock Pocket.
Fruit - Its always been like that in our house until I went to Jordan last year and now I have the bug too
I have to bum around the world for a month or so each year or else I get very upset
You're going on that train, Lizsark? Wow!
Yes Vi! I may even see a Vicuna!!!1
Ben and his teeeeeeam did
*Just found Toot & Puddles* on Amazon :)
If you do, give it my love!
Of course :)
Those pig books have lovely illustrations. Think I might order one (for my 3 year old honest!)
Just be glad that the pig books don't come with smells attached...
scratch & snifff ahhhhhh
mmmm pig manure!
Haz -- that's the best part of books, it's a selective sensory experience!
It wouldn't be an aaaah of pleasure with a piggy smell.
* in a Pepe le Peu accent* Words, where are you my leetle words! I am calling to you! We could make such beautiful musics togezzer!
When I was little I had a scratch 'n sniff Xmas story and since then whenever I smell oranges I think of Christmas
You're right, fruit.
do you remember those awful scratch and sniff stickers and pencils and stuff?
and rubbers too Ata
sc5/12 can rouse so many memories.
and they all smelled FOUL
My Mum has no sense of smell - I always think that must be so awful
awwwwww
It would be, Liz. Taste would be affected badly as well. Has she ever had the sense or did she lose it?
No never. She has a liking for really strong tasting foods, like Chinese or Curry or such
or lemons - she loves lemons
Does she eat them the same way we would eat oranges?
and ginger too - God nw my memories are going overtime
I had a friend who could eat limes like that
LOL NO! But she does put them in almost all her food
I once lost my sense of smell thanks to an awful sinusitis - food tasted like cardboard. It was such a relief to get it back.
You know what? Now I suddenly feel like eating something ginger flavoured - how odd!
Mmmm.... ginger....
Not diving for a lemon?
I have to go - Son has a pal round for a sleepover and they are banging on about ice cream....
Lemon ice cream?
Must go save the Tartlets from each other! *places freshly baked muffins in the chog* BBL!
Tartlets? I are they flinging tauntlets?
clue for in7/44 please
Are the tartlets likely to fight to the death?
mmmmm ice cream
in7/44 - just like en7/44 in a clinging, climbing sort of way.
in + string Boo
see you all soon, take care and have fun :)
Bye Liz!
bye dear!
Bye!
Well... Who's got the next interesting topic of conversation, then?
ummmmmm
Talk about pressure.
ty dan - that clue gave me six that I'd missed
Come on, be witty! be entertaining! Deliver the goods!
Any body staying warm?
What's it worth?
yvw tinks
My eternal admiration?
Or at least until next time I'm bored?
How many mice does it take to screw in a light bulb?
Damn missed Liz, how is Oscar?
I don't know, dan, how many?
Ummm... 12?
(when the chat lags, I figure it's time for a really bad joke)
Quite right, danf.
2...but I have NO idea how they got in there!
I need the answer, hubby is waiting!
and I quote "that is bad, and I mean just bad"
Does anyone remember a thing written about dogs screwing in light-bulbs? Varying according to the breed characteristics?
And I hope there isn't too much electricity between them!
I think Oscar is fully recovered, isn't he?
pretty much, I think!
I remember that Haz.
That's good haz, I haven't had an update since Monday
He didn't need any surgery, I know that much.
It was very funny (the dogs and the bulb thing). I should google it, shouldn't I?
talking of surgery I'm watching extreme makeover, so bad it's good
evening all - anyone got the es 8?
cocker spaniels looked at it and wiggled?
es8 - e plus Miss Cruise (Tom's daughter), rearrange number after ni4/4
es8 - es + voewl + O----- Express
ty all - weird word - i have 44 ;eft but might not last long still suffering from last weeks debacle
http://tinyurl.com/83sw2v That's the dog and light bulb thing. i.e Rottweiler 'Make me'
last weeks debacle?
We love a good debacle.
big accident lots of hurt things - can hardly move now
Ooo, poor Kazzer.
Oh Kazzer. We don't like debacles if it ends up with you injured.
see www.flickr.com/photos/davebarfoot
It's only funny if no one gets hurt.
Was this you out striding the hills?
no trying to fly into work!!!
that is *fabulous*
The dog thing?
yes!
Or Kazzer's beat up face?
I'm sorry Kaz, it's not funny it you get hurt
Poor Kazzer - colourful eye!
OW! *hugs gently*
Hey, danf, time for another bad joke to make everyone laugh!
face is much better - just a small bruise on temple - left side of chest feels like it is being punched - its okay as long as i dont cough or breathe deeply or get the hiccups - which i did earlier today - been off work with lots of painkillers which make me very woozy
How long before you're fit for work again?
Ugh!
supposed to be back on monday but i will see how i feel - i have had to let my hubby help me out of bed that last 2 days - the chest has been getting steadily more painful since last Thursday
Hi all hi Katie how is your cold and brys? You should call Mr Mari and ask if he has any spare paint !!
We are much better thanks diem, are they painting?
Unless you're a terribly quick healer, it sounds as if Monday might be optimistic.
nope unless its the garage floor
i am thinking that but you never know - miracles might happen
i will be back later need to get a drink and another dose of codeine
Oof. Good luck, Kazzer.
They might but I wouldn't have much hope. Hope you feel more comfortable soon.
He dropped paint in the garage?
That's how Jackson Pollock got started.
codine does not sound good for monday
yep
IN7 & EN7 ???? I have sixes, but can't find the sevens .... helllllp me, please
in7 - stinky stuff at church
Lol diem, we are going round for Christmas dinner we will be taking the micky

Both end with string.
Just for clairification Christmas Dinner is tomorrow night
Dear goodness. This year has flown by.
Of course it is, Katie.
It does keep getting earlier and earlier ;-)
Hope all your shopping's done, Haz.
oh, I have those, but I thought there was an IN7 that could be spelled EN7 ? Perhaps I misunderstood (it's happened)
I nearly wept when the Park Catalogue for Christmas 2009 started to be advertised.
when was that Boxing Day?
We had our turkey last Sun/mon/tuesday strange family
before christmas 2008
See the whole lot of us are wierd
Yes, Christine, in7 and en7 kind of wrap round each other.
Mari has even got us crackers for tomorrow
Then we'll have a good supply of bad jokes.
we have BR!
exactly Ata
Have you heard about the restaurant on the moon? The food was good but there was no atmosphere.
thank you; I think I hadn't seen it spelled that way.
There, that's my contribution.
loooooool
You're welcome, Christine.
is spangle howling in protest?
Most excellent, Haz. I suppose the food was laregely cheese-based.
hello again
cheeeeese Gromit!
Quick, hide the gauntlets. Doren is back!
Spangle is groaning politely.
was that a tauntlet???
Yes, and put those clothes back on again, you flauntlets.
spaniels can be polite?
When it's to their advantage.
i thought annie locked them up in the vaultlet
(The offspring appreciated your Gromit reference, Ata.)
Police have caught two children. One was eating batteries, the other fireworks. They've charged one and let off the other.
oh no, what have i walked into?
Vi - did you get to see 'A matter of Loaf and Death'? It's the latest Wallace and Gromit
well-educated offspring!
Tee hee, Haz. (Checking to make sure both my children are accounted for and not involved with police.)
I missed it, was it good
No, Haz, it doesn't seem to be available here, yet. We tried to find it on-line. =(
It was really good! Keep looking out for it.
What did Snow WHite say when she left her camera film at the processors?
I was somewhere around the M3 when it aired :(
I will, I will. I'm glad to hear it didn't let down the franchise.
(afraid to ask)
I forgot to record it :-(
SOME DAY MY PRINTS WILL COME!!!!!!
'Some day my prints will come.'
It was excellent, as always.
Time to go - I've been shut out of babble three times in the past thirty minutes.
and the prize goes to Vic
Two televisions got married.
The reception was fantastic.
bye Christine
hi everyone. Has anyone seen Hurshy today? S he was worried about her husband yesterday.
hi everyone. Has anyone seen Hurshy today? S he was worried about her husband yesterday.
Where do Noah's bees live?
oooo QI time!
In the ark-hives.
She was on earlier, mo.
LOL! I like that one!
You mean you'd rather watch QI than listen to my jokes?
I'm getting concerned about how many jokes you know off the top of your head Haz
gonna do both!
Worry no more, Katie. I'm reading them out of a paper.
How do you make gold soup?
Phew
Add 14 carrots.
ah that's much better then
Mo did you know your icon wasn't showing up properly
they have Pam Ayres on!
Okay, got QI on as well.
I'm off to watch American Idol, see you all later
I make gold soup all the time. It's either that or pearls dissolved in vinegar in this house. ANd how else are we goign to get through all these diamonds if we don't make some diamond slaw?
What's the most military day of the year?
March 4th
How do you know all of these?
I think Vi has the same paper!
I guess it is I about whom Doren needs to be concerned.
Here's an intellectual one. What do you call a three legged Donkey?
Katie ... yes ... my hubby has been transfering photos onto my computer and he seems to have messed it up....
Wonkey!
But the answer to your question is... because I'm brilliant?
loooool
vi is very intelligent, despite the fact that she feels exceptionally stupid for missing the volcano
Thank you Doren, thank you.
I know, and she needn't feel stupid. I do much more silly things but just keep quiet about them.
volcano? today?!
Try it and see.
ectually, vi, i was typing that before you fished shamefully for the compliment
Haz ... just backtracked ... glad to know she was on earlier, so hopefully no problem.
didn't think so!
I think everything's okay, mo.
but haz that may be where the intelligence shines, some of us do keep quiet when we feel silly
no no volcano, but she mentioned it earlier this morning
ty Haz.
what do put on a pig's cut?
That wasn't fishing for a compliment, Doren, that was stating an undeniable truth most forcefully.
I don't know, torgone.
Oinkment
indeed it was vi.
Groan - good one!
how corny can you get!!!!....
You ought to know that, Haz, married to a vet and all!
must not be in hs textbooks as well as the book haz is reading from
'Doctor doctor, I can't pronounce my Fs, Ts and Hs' 'Well you can't say fairer than that then!'
lol
I know, I should have seen torgone's punchline coming.
Haz ... you have been reading the Daily Mail!
You're a very astute woman, mo. Yesterday's edition is right beside me.
Husband amused himself last night by reciting some of the jokes.
Mo, this is where you say, "Elementary, my dear Haz."
there are some funnies in the DM .
Can you write a sentence with politics in it?
LOL!!!
I love Pam Ayres's accent
My parrot swallowed a clock and now politics.
major groan here
seen that too Haz.... hehe!
Ata, are you too young to remember her on Opportunity Knocks?
*giggle*
yes, sadly
I do love her though
She's stayed well preserved in a natural sort of way.
yes, she looks like someone of her age should look, if that makes sense
It makes perfect sense.
well must stop chatting ... still got 73 to go...
etna isn't one of them, Vi established that for us.
You're welcome, everyone. Just one of those helpful little services I like to render the community.
And we thank you for it.
nor is business
Niece isn't there either. For once I thought I had spotted it umprompted, but no.
nor sierra
lol, Haz. I never never get niece - even worse than etna... and yet I did the exact same thing today. I was so proud of myself for spotting it and then - NO.
I never get niece or sierra
It's humiliating, isn't it? What is it about niece?
Well, I haven't got any. Maybe that's my problem.
it's just impossibel to see
Nor have I. Could that be it?
Do you have any nieces, Ata?
Must be. I'd ask my siblings to produce some for me in order to improve my Babble game, but somehow I'm not sure they'd appreciate it.
2 step-nieces
if you don't get sierra, do you get si****?
no! LOL
Gently done, Dorens.
yes, ty, dorens
Well, son has asked me to find the Mexican Hat Dance music on the computer so he can practice! lol So, good-night, all!
glad to be of help
Night night Vi.
bye vi, nice seeing you
how rude.... my firefox crashed. i don't think that ever happened before.
Can we stop being entertaining and witty for Vi now?
bad firefox!
was in the process of printing the confirmation for my hotel reservation for my son's wedding in martha's vineyard - maybe it objected to something there
I hope you don't end up getting booked twice.
doubtful.. and very very excited about this wedding.
When is it?
may 17th. david is the one who told me about babble, when Jaime told me about it... he has babbled himself from time to time.. digeridoo. an exceedingly silly boy
that was supposed to be when Jaime (a lovely girl, thank the lord) told HIM about it. she is an english teacher and students showed it to her
I hope all goes well with the arrangements. What age is your son?
he just turned 30... he had sort of lost himself for several years, and the love of a good woman, etc, etc.. He is now enrolled in Harvard and is interested in becoming a librarian
That must be a relief for you. No wonder you're excited!
she has been fantastic for him.. and he brought her to martha's vineyard four years ago to meet us on our family vacation and i just loved her from the start. and now she loves the place and chose it for her wedding.
yes yes much happiness involved here... and his brother (phoebe's father) is now a professor at harvard, and they are expecting child #2 in july.. so the family is growing in several dimensions
That sounds lovely. You're not in line to feature in any mother-in-law jokes if this continues.
hahahaha... no, no moi!
altho ken can make lots of bad girlfriend jokes about me (and my kids love laughing at them) favorite pasttime at our family get=togethers... making fun of mom
The family that laughs together stays together?
something like that, lol they still like our annual week in Martha's vineyard... just booked a week in august, and they are all coming, so i guess they're making fun of me can't be all bad
ooh look at the errors there. their.. not they're ... one of my favorite pet peeves, too. and no period after the ubiquitous "lol"
I need to get back using capital letters, proper punctuation, and proofreading.
It's a wonder I'm talking to you at all.
A wonder indeed. I am highly honoured.
i'm down to 25 listless, shall I list or soldier on?
make that 24
Oh I'll say list and Ata will say soldier on.
It depends on how much time or patience you have.
list!
oh my.. that is two lists?
Just to prove me wrong....
soldier on!
that was surely her reason
Now she's being provoking.
Soldier off!
provoking me??
or confusing me. that's it. I shall soldier off, clean a drawer or something, and come back fresh later on.
No! Provoking me by saying both options.
looool
provoke Haz? never!
she does like doing that doesn't she, haz?
What stage have you reached, Ata?
There not paying attention too they're punctuation over their.
She just likes a bit of mischief now and again.
ermmmmmmm 69 left
But you did get a late start.
yes, and I have had a headache migrainey thing most of the day
And torgone has been very distracting with all those jokes.
and ate bad esso food
And it is Friday.
yes, all very distracting from grid activities!
(Where are we going with this?)
I am still at 53 and I'm listless .. shifty and listless ..
But devilishly handsome, torgone, don't forget that.
just got to 22. lethargic and listless
Or is shiftless and listy ..
Haz, the dog in your icon pic is just darling - looks a bit mischievous!
the famous spangles... mischievous?
Time for new glasses Haz ..
Spangle is a great pet. She's lovely company for me.
Funnily enough, torgone, I have two new pairs ordered.
Tor, you are our heartthrob
I looked at that and thought you meant 2 new pairs of Spangles!
That picture is 10 years old ..
No! 2 pairs of reading glasses (2 for 1 offer) to replace the pair eaten by my house.
she'd be pentaSpangled then ..
Ah, but torgone, in our heart you stay forever young.
I am a bit immature ..
Oh YOUR heart ..
you are a man, yes?
Well, in the words of Deputy Dawg, (too young to remember him, Ata?) 'The time has come for me to go'.
bye haz... me too. i am serious about cleaning out that drawer today. twenty words left.. they will be here after the sun goes down. night haz
yes! for once!!
Bring back Deputy Dawg and Top Cat, I say.
and Captain Caveman
Lippy the Lion
Bye Dorens, hope you get the rest of the words. Bye all!
mighty mouse
Byee Haz you sweetheart
goodnight Haz.
You silver-tongued smoothie you....

dorens, don't understand the 9 clue . . .

su7/40 is underwater ship + girl's name
yes
have fun owl
ooohhh
OOOHHH
now, one who does it, une
what a ridiculous word! thanks, dorens
it's something to adjust the te7 in bikes, etc. not that unusual
I am lost now--I have te7 but not te9 or en7 or that su7--more help please?
had a funny time earlier when people wanted clues for en8 and i told them pregnant in paris
oh, really? never heard it in my life
if you want ridiculous you have the right grid. most of the 7 letter words are.
what causes headaches scrab? you know this
scrabs, en7 is en + string
in7 is in + string
cause you (and I) aren't bike fanatics
other in7 is fragrance from a burning stick
true LOL
i never heard it before, but once i did i realised it made sense and a distant memory tells me i might have heard my son discussing it.
My headaches are from boss, Richard Head.
su7 is underwater ship + **** Brockovich
he used to be my boss scrabs
so when i said pregnant in paris, had to elaborate... then said it was french for pregnant and was told "i don't speak french"
TY, Une
yes scrabs, and dick causes a lot of te***** in the office?
yw :-)
leading to te***** headaches
There are many bosses named Richard Head.
Hello everyone

TY, now I have te7 and te9...still need "string" word...no thread, no rope
Hi Brookie

Odd last name to have here in the grid.

i have he 4, 4, 4, 5, 4 - what am i missing?
Help with the us5 Babblet please?
US = teachers union

yup
OK, H is grey--I was missing a he4
h's and i's grayed!
i need one n from the left and then i will have first, thrid, and fifth columns grey. that would look nice
from there i think i have the plural number and the ne7... any idea what the other is?
do you have ne4/4 x 2
hah une, i just enlarged your photo, must say i couldn't recognize jen unless you told me it was her
and ne4/6?
yes, i do
yes
and four ni words,
oh, i only have 3 ni words
so it's probably an ni word... i have ni4/6 then three words having to do with a number
and one no4/4
and one n14/4
and one no5
you need the plural of the number dorens
*na4/4
also an no5
tx. hursh
have that hursh
ok, got that one . . .
not the plural of the fraction...
oh then you need ni4/5
nope, didn't have the plural of the fraction. but that isn't from the left side
TX! didn't have the fraction1
oh, ni** thanks
and that is a fish for me, which reminds me i need to get my dinner.. but fortunately i now have left middle and right columns grey, so i can leave happy

I already know the 3rd letter, I need the ending...still thinking.

hubby's sweeping the kitchen for me right now, gotta go mop in a sec

It's a wood pellet furnace and the auger got stuck, a bad bearing or some such thing.
They have the original furnace--50+ yrs old, and should have replaced it a long time ago.
If it aint broke...
My parents are very frugal, survivors of the Great Depression.

why wouldn't he talk? he's been talking for awhile. i mean, nothing really CORRECTLY except "mama" "dada" and "baa"

ahhhhhh that makes a bit more sense then
6 si yes
one sn?
And I see kids that are raised in bilingual and trilingual homes!! I just saw a family--parents escaped genocide in Burundi (they have my utmost admiration)--and the kids know French, Kirindi (?sp), and english.
wesley is being raised with english and ASL
maybe he'll get spanish soon, but my sister and her husband are really still just learning it themselves so i don't know.
ASL should be universal in the USA.
they taught phoebe some signiing when she was young, but seems to be using less lately.

Urban Dictionary lbd ..
I have a dog question!!!!
hi Pini.
If the dog just ate a 1/2 stick of butter, will it kill him???
hell no Pini.
let's try it and see!!!!
no, but he'll be quite lubricated.
(the little thief)
It will give dog possible diarrhea.
oh, great...glad I'm home for the next 3 days then!
No. Fat is not bad for them except watch out for the doodoo ..
Hopefully by Tuesday the "crap" will be out of his system!
OK must go now, night veryone... i'm going to brush teeth and get snuggly in bed in case anyone was wondering or wants to call
and fireworks
Just how I wanted to spend a 3-day weekend!
:)
whooooo hooooo ANDREE!
bye monkey
Yay, Andree!!!!
sweet sleep, Lil
:)
wtg andree
night lil*monkey!
G'night, lil
what kind of dog, pini?
it might not bother the dog that much Pini. Teulu eats wierd stuff all the time and generally he does OK.
Beagle
good to know it wan't kill him though! ;)
thx for those last clues and happy babbling its 1.30pm here and i need lunch
give him some dried kibble or rice if he seems to be in distress.
dried kibble? i.e., dry dog food?
enjoy your lunch, andree
dry dog food, but check the contents and make sure it doesn't have a lot of by products in it
Is it just me, or have the grids lately all contained some sort of Pee words?
okey dokey! good to know! thanks!!!
not sure, red, but thanks for the clue!
pee words and lots of just plain weird words, red
23 B's????? holy cow!!!
I have a whopping 2
only 21 more to find pini! lol
20 now!!!
I have only 47 words so far!
(found another)
I only have 41!!!
42
oh, this is going to be hard...
go red, go pini, go torg!
43
Pini, I just started this at 9 pm my time.
what time is now for you?
9:25. Actually, I did do some at like 8:45 watching The Colbert Report.
oh, that's right, you're a east-coaster (FL)...I knew that!
A chilled east coaster.
it's 36F here now! brrrrrrr
ok...that's it...it's either the dog or me!
47 here, but. very cold for us.
I got home and took him outside to do his business...
...since coming in he's eaten a 1/2 stick of butter...
Tim and his mom were debating whether it would reach up to 20F today...
Oh no, Pini, is the poor dog already leaking butter?
...and just took a (solid) dump on the carpet! OY!
no butter ... YET!
the butter is working! At least solid.
Ewww...sorry Pini!
hi only ate the butter about 10 minutes ago...it couldn't possibly have gone thru him THAT quick...could it???
it's ok, jellen...like red said, at least its solid (for now)
up to 51 now!!!
I think I'm on a roll!!!
yes Pini, it can, it wasnt the butter though, it was the butter pushing the other stuff through.
61 here.
OY!!!! thanks for that picture red! LOL
sorry. I could be wrong, but...
* giggle *
(makes sense tho)
good riddance B's
are you listing, red?
dan2...I need 15 more B's!!!!
ok...13 now
12
I started with the list, since I had sort of a long work day. go pini go.

I'm a bit clueless tonight...
I find that hard to believe, Jellen!

Woohoo, got te9!
finished, but I hated this grid -- full of obscurities and unwords -- bah!
hi jilli!
Hi, jilli!
I am at least over half way.
1st 2 BU's?
hi pini and all
monkeys found them!
Bu + ***se and repeat (with shampoo)
B's DONE!! woot woot!
thx jellen! ;)
bu5/16 -- a tempered steel rod, with a lozenge-shaped point and a rounded handle, used for engraving furrows in metal. See what Imean?
oy vey...what a clue, jilli! ;)
My monkeys for this were called More and Words
ROFL
I suspect a lot of monkeys have the same names
I opened the list a short time ago...it's helping alot...haven't hit MW yet...but it's still possible!
I'll be happy to give clues for a while -- must get supper soon
I'm missing all of the EN's!
well, pini, my icon is a clue for the first one
expecting is not in the grid :(
did you look at my profile, pini?
I think we can en6 that you find one, pinik
Yes...was I supposed to read it too??? ;)
back for a few minutes (the British comedies are on tv @ 7pm) ... have you the clue for the 9?
en + **nter (middle) + ****rnet (cyberspace)
THAT's a word????
*trying to remember what the 9 starts with*
te9= te7/28 + comparative ending
brb - dog outside
pini, it's French -- guess you didn't read my clue
Oh gosh watching Monk, and it was really funny tonight.
te7= number + suspen**** bridge
Oh rats, forgot it was on...
Luckily, it's being recorded at home...
gotta go - Waiting for God is on - goodnight, and thanks.
bye christine -- great show
is that 9 a real word?
other cluers here -- going to get supper and find next icon (Favourite Phantom)
Not in my opinion, Christine, but check the ? beside it
The ? gives no definition -- that's why I hate this grid and other like it
no definition, when I checked
Sorry, jilli...I should've read it - but I can tell you that that's whay my dau is (en8)
it accepts non-words, and rejects real words ... oh well, I really am gone now. And congrats, Pini
ttfn, Christine
thx christine
must go attend to my halibut steak -- back later -- but last chance for clues if you need them
Could you get me started on the su's, jilli?
su5/16 -- think what kind of a root a potato is, change the first letter to an s. su7 after it, add not out
Blasted dial-up...must have missed her...
thx for those 2 su's!!!
Oops, thanks, jilli!
yw!
Enjoy your halibut while I ponder my last 21 words...
jellen, I don't know how you can do this with dial-up!
Hi
Hi, herin
GUESS WHAT

It's only temporary, jilli...till we get back home...
what?
We got the kitten
What, herin?
kitten? what does pandora think of that?
congrats!
We are not amused. He is in the bathroom at the moment on a blanket with his box and food and such
clever pips icon, herin!
*pipes*
uh oh
Jill its the old windows screen saver
Yep but we are slowly introducing them. Both on harnesses so less with the claws
Shall i tell you his name
please!
yes!
Lucius NOT Malfoy either.
Or should it be Luscious?
No its Lucius. It means light or king Its latin and has been used since Roman times
Great name, herin
I know, herin -- just kidding
cool
pini -- do you need the other su clues?
I don't seem to be able to go and cook my supper
Also a Saint and one of many Roman power men. I think most people are going to go sigh darn HP name its not Shakespeare used it first in Literature and the Romans had it as a common name.
yup
I could use the next two su's jilli, but I don't want to keep you from your supper...
what colour is Lucius, herin?
su7 & 7 -- under fish catcher and pl
Funny is my friends named her car Marcus and they are related names. He is black with a paint brush dob of white under his chin with pumpkin orange eyes
I don't want to keep you either, jilli...
it's ok, pini!

that is ok trifs. kitty pics up
we seem stuck on tinkle
yay! off to check....
Poor bastard! That is still newsworthy?
Not seeing in 5/10 or 6/21...any clues?
omg did the naked guy stick?
herin, he is lovely! how is the blending in going? is pandora cool with the new addition?
next icon theme is Favourite Phantom, gang, in case you'd like to find one
IN*** beauty is what really matters.
rofl
Take that protein drink again and use a different vowel at the beginning.
no, but she noticed something i didn't - his son, a child, was sitting in the ski lift the whole time, having to see his dad *dangle* there for minutes. poor kid. school career = OVER
Jilli! TY! I am all over it!
herin -- dear little kitty boy!
O!MG...I am soooo embarrassed
pretty kitty, Herin!
jmc, car and dr - thanks - got them
Don't be! You are tired!
Princess Pissy pants is currently in her large carrier bail fully eyeing him off. this way she knows he isn't going any were
Pissy? Again with the tinkle...
lol
thanks Caree. he sat at the shelter store for 2 weeks as he''s big
herin -- big hugs for pandora
I used to have a cat named Pandora..and she was a black calico!
once they get used to each other, they will be so glad they have each other. lucius is very shiny!
Okay...I've failed with keeping an accurate list...apparently I have 3 left...a C,an N,and a T
pissy sort for issed off - not happy.. Jill she is getting loads of attention and special kitty treats and a new toy
umm. need a few more details there, kad
kadresa, aren't you using Lickety's list?
There should be 7 C words total...
herin, is it still brutally hot there?
I choose Lucius as its a good Roman strong name.
I am going to guess she needs the CE 5/12, which is the same as the IN 7/32, just drop the first 2 letters!
no it isn't warm. its the Pres you think of?
i thought it was warm with you last week? maybe I am thinking of the pres.....
No...I think it's the last C a 4 one..(I was asked to shut my light off so I'm in tteh dark.)
How about NA 4/4...Model NA*m* Campbell...
2 days last week that is all
French for movie?
no no - kad, try ce + primo's initials
or CE 4/5...cement is another name for conCr***
or ce + **acup?
Merci beacoup EB...The N is a 4 ne last one I think
I am missing the last three "in" words. Clues please
charity...Nothing but NE**
de rien, kad, the ne is what you catch fish in
IN + string; plural
Sorry, I meant the first one...I have that one.
thanks car
the black goose from hawaii
kadresa -- you need your flag etc!
To safeguard your belongings you might want to IN**** them.
oh, sorry - the very first one is ne + second letter, then plural
thanks car - got them all
lots of cluers here so going to get next icon
I know Jili,but I'm somewhat of a remedial computer user...I was proud that I could get a photo up there!
Yeah Birdee! I feel useful!
nite nite jili
And we are so proud of you too!
1st be 5/14 and last bi 4/6 - ?
sorry birdeee
Trifs the kitty is 16 weeks and his paw pads are at least 2 fingers wide (front tip to back)
Drop the last letter of the BE 6/24
Okay...now what kind of word is that??? One left and its a th 6/21 that is NOT the pl of the 5/12.
TH + beer *****ken
goodness, herin! you might need to move to a bigger place...is he a mislabeled ocelot or something?
I am falling asleep so I am heading to bed
night all
Nite JMC!
good night jmc....sweet dreams!
thanks car and nitey nite jmc
Bon soir!
I like that baby panther that is why i photographed him under the table
kad, did you take the photo on your icon?
BI 4/6; an owl is said to be very w***
kad -- do you want your flag?
No wish I did though, the beach is beautiful in every season.
kk
Damn cold though, this time of year!!!
i am not very sleepy...this is not good
Okay...1 left can you clue me again on the th 6/21?
TH 6/21; To TH*** own self be true, just add in an extra vowel...
good one, car
kad -- add a vowel to the word before it
add the extra vowel in right after the TH
No Trif...that is not good.
jill, loving your icon! i changed mine too....
I need the first ce 5/12
Ladies....fireworks....and I owe it all to you guys! Lovin' you madly!
Yahoo kad
It is the same as the IN 7/32; just drop those first 2 letters!
trif -- you'd better change your text too!
YAY KADRESA!!! WOOT WOOT
Yeah Kadresa!
Thanks Bird...
LOL jill....you are right! (((scarlet))))
YAY kadresa!!! Now will you answer my question?
Okay...now that I'm done how do you get the flag?
Go to your My Account, upper right corner, check the little box which says Show Profile :)
thanks car - I have 37 left so I am still just having fun
gogogo birdeee
thanks for that, jill - i just changed my flag too!
Thanks Jilli, I saw that box, but never thought to check it. Will I get a little pink "purse" too?
trif -- you came up with a blank!
Ummmm. Barb...that is a female icon...
ugh, except it doesn't SHOW the flag of dominica, is jsut says dominica....how lames is that? sigh. back to US
yes, kad
that purse is a "purse-on" kad
Yah I know Carole, but Soph thought they looked like little purses...I thought it was cute!
But I agree with you! And it does look like a purse!
it is cute, and thanks for remembering, kad!
Okay...so how come nothing is showing up on mine?
I only have the fu 4/8 - can I have clues for the other three?
except the guys don't carry little blue purses -- well hardly any do
i didn't know that "neutral" was an option....
well . . in Portland there are guy purses and guys wearing cool-looking canvas kilts
drops his blue purse....
the first 2 fu words are obscure dialect (I hated this grid) - fu4/10 is fu + bullshit (sorry about that) - the nest is more so
drops his canvas kilt too...lol
birdee - fu + abbreviation for cow poo, then that same word, but even more so, then fu that is joining nuclear atoms (or something like that)
hi ruru, ROFL!
Okay...I figured it out...I gotta go to bed folks..I want to go to the gym in the morning with scoop for a while. Thanks everyone for all of your help as always!
ha Jilli - thanks and ruru! I am shocked
ruru, no speedo under the kilt?
nope just a kilt lifter..lol
OOO, ruru!
you guys started it...
got my fu's thanks Jilli and Tri
that's true ruru - we did and it was fun
