Hello everyone. Hi Andree!
hi lynxxx

how is your weather lynxxx, very hot here
been stinking all week, just changed in last hour or so and trying to storm - no rain here though. I think another day and then into a few cooler days. Nothing like that awful Sydney weather though (MRP where are you)
hi all *hiding from the gales here*
hi Ata!
back again, battery ran out whilst i was outside enjoying a brreeze that has sprung up
hi andree!
hi ata
morning everyone
morning kitt, have you got weather from hell?
hi Katie!

I was convinced the roof was about to fly off for most of the night
hi aussies, im in perth -no such nice weather here just hot sun
re6/18 please not the rerip
hi Sandy
Hi Sandy, can we borrow some of your sun?
yes, please, can we?
pretty hot here too sandy, but i like it especially since we moved to a house with a pool
pools are good
we have a little one
re 6 -- add, **a for two and bird home: **st
ive just been to broome and it was really hot there
YAY! got the 8!

Favorite Family Heirlooms\

I'll keep my pic - maybe it'll be a heirloom of the future
to4,4 makes it in the grid 2 days in a row
grid has a vowel-challenged word
phantom: praetor
so it does, ty
and a stupid word to have in a dictionary babble
I seem to have smacked into the wall at just 55 walls
some grids feel like they do have 55 walls
*hands over an ice pack*
Lol lynxxx
yay - got the voweless one - like my mothers sewing machine
to 7/28 -- a small heavy weight
A ssewing machine with no vowels ...
thx for that to babble
see that, I was so confused, I threw in an extra A S
extra s's are always good
Why does 'it' say crafter doesn't exist?
ick! the one American word that makes me *cringe* is in the grid
I know it's silly chrissy
???Chrissy ??? is that me? The last person who called me that --- well, we won't go there
Or are you calling me 'silly Chrissy' ???
fireworks

The film with Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson in about doing things before you die
ef6-36 please
TY I'll look out for it
ef6 - delicately feminine from a man
i have to test my icon-its my 80 year old mum at cable beach resort
ty ata

I'm off to do some work, bbl
bye Katie
try not to kill your boss for another day!
I'm working from home so he is safe today :-)
from home? nice!!
saves driving for over an hour in this weather :-)
absolutely!!!! very sensible. I intend to go no further than the garden all day
LOl, see you later then :-)
ef6/36 - degenerate
poor Obama having to take the Constitutional Oath twice
why?
he got it wrong the first time
wow is that right!
that's got to be embarrassing, esp in front of 2m people
the guy who was reading it out to him got it wrong and Obama repeated it incorrectly. Legal ppl say it's utterly unimportant, but he took it again to try and stop conspiracy theories etc
more that 2 mil the world was watching!
Don't you remember how Princess Diana transposed Charles' names -- Phillip Charles instead of Charles whatever ... stressful times, and if that's the worst that happens, we'll do fine.
yes! she got something or other wrong
but! then the second time he took the oath, he didn't take it with a bible in hand. so I'm sure the conspiracy theorists will still have a field day
Pleeeese - no vowels, and sounds like the name of a sewing machine ...
the word after oees
lol excellent clue!
it's impossible to clue!
uh oh. Hobbit wants to go out
Wow - how could I miss that - my dear MIL says it
yes, a great clue
I hate having to put 4 layers on to just go out into the garden, and still come back soaking wet. and cold. and windswept.
Can't yoou just stand at the door?
unfortunately no, cos it's a communal garden so I have to follow her round and pick up - any - yeah.
mongrel dog then
ok *girds loins* I'll be back!
BBL
Yay, fireworks! That's twice in about 6 hrs, I are sooo proud! ;D
woohoo rbud

LOL ata
I've been good. Took the mutt out, and then did 1/2 an hour step stuff on my Wii
ooo - good for you
I woke early, answered a few emails... and now here
this grid is going fast
hi
hi herin
how are you
good
hi herin! how are the furbrats?
Bratty
how is yours?
what is that lower corner E?
no idea
me either - LOL
I know that it starts with an E
TY herin
about the same :P
OK
She is tolerating him as long as he doesn't move to fast. other wise its like DUDE chill out and get out of my face
oh, the news just said the golden retriever is the #1 breed in the US
LOL herin
he runs up to her and does the big HI i want to play and she is very much chill the heck out he cheeps then runs off
lower right e? ef 6 -and the last 4 are same as one of the fe 4's. :)
its tough to have an older pet with a younger one... the older tends to be very disdainful of that energy
she is just a lazy bint
aaahhh - TY
Hobbit jumped on the bed this morning and lay down on top of Silverclaw. Blooming dog! Poor cat!
LOL ata... pets are funny
what was funnier is that the cat just lay there slowly suffocating *sigh*
wins it points for long suffering... hopes you are taking note : )
I luvs you pets Ata
bbiab - need coffee
ooo - herin.. that is a pretty piece of jewelry - very cool story
Well my friend still hasn't got his van back. he whole life at the moment fits in a plastic bag
OK, now bbiab : )
we had to have the monsters in the bedroom last night, cos the winds were so strong that Silverclaw was almost jumping out of her skin with every creak and crash
silly Silli
she ended up hiding under the covers by my knees all night
Giant sook
she's a *compelte* wimp
Rhubarb hates the wind as well
it must seem like loud thunder does to us - biiig noises that come from up above!
Last night my friend had his Van stolen it had all his stuff in it:clothes, music stuff p.c everything. He has been back in town for 7 days couch surfing. He has also lost his passport. He was relocating cities again. Now he has 2 shirts and a pair of pants. His whole life is now in one bag. HI Katie
thats so sad :(
He is fairly oh well best definition of starting from scratch.
still totally sucks
has he got somewhere to stay?
couches I supose
at least he has wonderful friends like you to help him
Well I can't help in $$ wise or donations as such. We have such limited stuff as it is. But yes I listen
that usually makes the biggest difference!
I have wracked my brains in thoughts to help out but nothing
if there's anything to be done, I'm sure you'llthink of it
draft fete glove

good rule crossy, one I use myself unfortunately hubby is not so keen on it and it can be anything not used in 10 years is still kept. of*** get accused of throwing away his stuff
I recently cleared out a closet that has 5 shelves and I filled 4 bags with junk. Now I can fill up the closet all over again.
then give him a single closet and say if you can fit it in here you can keep you long term stuff
I cleared out the bathroom of my stuff (which he said there was 100s of items and he was right) so I am now starting to nag about his stuff
since we now have 3 kitties,i had to go out yesterday and get one of those dry food feeding stations,the ones that hold a whole bag of food in a plastic cylinder and dispense it to a tray
trying to streamline my life here..too much junk!
last of my record albums will be going;((((((((
Cross my butt is an every shrinking increasing identity so I have a few pieces. I need to make a love that out of at least one skirt.
I found a new pet store yesterday--they sell all USA made, organic, independent brands. I found the bunny food and hay that I used to get shipped, at high rates.

Good for you, Cwossy, si-wee man. (Elmer Fudd-speak, again, because it makes me laugh)
Good for you Scrabbler, that'll be a help. G'd morning jorja
Hi Jorj
i wuv scwabbs and her tasty pwump wabbits
its about £45 but as they have it on top of wet food it lasts for ages. Probably about 2 months. Casty won't eat her dinner unless she has crunchy bits on top and Crumble gets ill if we don't use special perscription crunchy bits
((Jorjah))---I was thinking of you yesterday, feeling a fraction of your pain.
Ok
My wabbits aw pwump, but you won't be tasting them. They are my babies. No more wabbit meals for Cwossy.
so about $1.30 a day isn't much. You pay that for one can
thanks so much ya'll. viewing is tonite and funeral tomoro, it's been so drawn out because of the autopsy, been so hard on the boys
Yes, so unreal, such a nightmare, Jorjah.
our poor old 14 year old kitty is starting to get arthritis badly,we have to help her up and down the couch etc...im sorry jorja my head must be in a vacuum..what happened?
I'm sorry for your loss jorjah
Jorjah i may have missed something important. But here is my hug
My old bunny, Callie, was getting arthritic a year ago, and she lasted til May, when I decided it was time to let her go.
just so ya'll know, when I say my prayer of thanks, I always include you guys, my babble buddies , because I know ya'll have prayed for me and them...all I can keep saying is thank you
cross, wild rabbits were on sale in the store yesterday, and for some odd reason, YOU came to mind.... :D
For consumption, Lori, or as pets?
Jorj I dont know what happened but its ok
Consumption Scrabbler. ***ducks potential hurled objects***
it's awful to say, but bunny *does* taste good
**primal scream of horror**
*more primal screams of horror**
LOL, I wondered why you thought of crossy and not scrabbler, now all is clear
poor scrabler
you can buy rabbit in most supermarkets here
thank you herin, my 34 year old cousin, who was really my best friend, my sounding board thru the whole past year died sunday of a blood clot of all things...we were together thursd frid and sat and now she's gone, leaving a husb and 16 and 8 year old boys
I can buy veggie burgers in most stores here, LOL.
I once halted dinner as a child by asking if what we were eating was just like betsie (our pet rabbit) suddenly no one was hungry any more
ohh JOrg. I don't know what to say. Hugs.
It is cruel whenever tragedy strikes and we cannot understand it.
I still find it strange that ppl have bunnies for pets, not just for food. We've always eaten rabbit, but Scrabs is the first person I heard of having buny pets
Having pet rabbits in Aus is a tad costly
*trying to work out if ata is being funny*
you know as I typed that out for herin, I really realized something, this whole time I have been saying we were just together and how I should be saying it is we WERE together, if that makes any sense
Bunny, Miss B, is off to my right, and has full run of the downstairs. She runs to her bedroom when she must use her litter box or needs food or water.
OIT does
not! Scrabs was the first person I ever knew with indoor bunnies
Now Miss B is on the fireplace sitting next to my bunny statue.
awwwwww
That is sweet Scrabbler
Ata: rabbit.org = House Rabbit Society of the US.
I desperately want to meet a house rabbit now, I keep trying to persuade my friends to get one
YAAA ITS ALL RABBITS!
crossy dusts off his recipies....
Bad Crossy. I will go find cat stew recipes
darn..it snowed again
Imagine this, Ata. In the middle of the night a bunny (named Sebastian, barely 3 lbs of fluff and love), jumps on you in bed, puts whiskers in your face, and licks you, because he wants some attention.
Crossy, burn or shred those recipes.
lolol cross. ***Lori directs cross's comment to Scrabbler and waits for her wrath***
:((
that's adorable! and remarkably similar to my little cat!
crossy substtutes chicken....
Crossy, the next time you even consider eating rabbit meat, you must think of me and my babies.
We don't eat our pets unless its a Zombie Apocalypse
heh heh heh, FINALLY finished the bottom row. Didn't notice the pf 4 expression. <------Lori is a genius. No. Really.
the rabbit that is loved and pampered is a very different creature to a wild rabbit who often need culling
TY, Queen of Nova Scotia!
why are rabbits expensive to keep in Aus herin?
The term "culling" is a painful one for me when used for bunnies.
I've been like well over an hour Scrabbler, trying to grey that bottom row. Gads
I know quite a few people with house rabbits. I considered it when I got fuggy but he was easier to move round the country in his cage
I'm sure. But it's a fact of life, unfortunately. And if you saw some of the bunnies we get round here half dead from myxi, you would want them to have a quick death too
jorjah - give yourself some time, you can't possibly get used to the idea this quickly
I do understand, Ata.
myxi?
myximatosis
bright eyes burning like fire.......
We have myxomatosis and they are a bloody pest
it's yucky and horrid and a really cruel disease
Myxomatosis--bad germie.
our wild jack rabbits were hunted to near extinction and are now portected i believe
Rabbits not the disease. I think i would rather guinea pigs
havent heard of any hunt or cull in 20 years on them
some of the myxy rabbits just make you cry
and our wokd turkeys are back!:)) ty kentucky for the nice trade:)))
:-( Are the ill ones allowed to be quickly killed?
wild*
Sorry to say this but the only good rabbit in aus is one on a felt hat
Scrabbler huge problem in Aus due to large amount of land.
Scrabbler close your ears dear
100 kentucky wild turkeys for 100 white tailed deer..nice trade;)
My eyes, Kitt.
Hey I love the bunnies.
yes ... not officially I guess but most farmers will shoot them and most gundog owners will get the dogs to dispatch them. it sounds awful, and it is, but omg it's better than letting them suffer
I have to get ready for hospital rounds---7 sick kids to see!
roasting a chicken at the moment, hope noone has pet chickens
one of those times when science really turned out to be a bad thing
why was it man made ata?
your a busy girl scrabbs...ill watch the bunnies..:)
good luck with the rounds scrabbler, see you later
yes, it was engineered specificially to target bunnies
You would fall in lo4, Crossy, and never eat rabbit meat again.
Enjoy the day, Babble buddies!
lol perhaps scrabbs,perhaps
but it wasn't meant to be *quite* as effective as it was
Hi all. A word about myxi - The disease was transmitted from Australia by a French Physician, Dr A Delille, who wished to control the rabbit population on his country estate near Paris. The disease rapidly spread into the wild population in France and then was brought, entirely by accident, from France in 1953. There is no evidence that the disease was intentionally brought into Britain but there is no doubt that some farmers moved the disease around using diseased rabbits to control the population of the rabbits locally.
I'm assuming it was meant to be quicker and less painful than it is!
I should hope so, because it's just awful to watch
nasty
Our bad
It's very upsetting to see them suffer. I think using ferrets is probably the quickest and kindest solution when there is a rabbit problem.
Hi Jacula...I have to get going. Kiss the guinea pigs for me.
*mutters something about tnt*
I sometimes see bunnies that have drowned themselves at the beach - blind from myxy and didn't realise they were going out into the water. it's just awful.
Hi Scrabbs.
good grief..hope that dosent make it over here
we have a protection vacine for pet bunnies here
good!
brb,must make the offsprings lunch for the day semi-poof
We have it here, too, Herin.
(The vaccine, I meant.)
I love your icon jacula
I am going to really show my age here, but who is that on the cover?
You might find this info about rabbit vaccines of interest: http://tinyurl.com/d4vopn
Thanks Katie. Ata - It's Davey Jones of The Monkees.
Stupid question is anyone having Yahoo.com mail issues?
don't use it herin
ty Jac *feels very young*!
yes herin - reply freezes up and some messages take a while to load
'ty' Ata *now feels very old!*
Thanks must have an issue state side
im going to try through .com
I need to delete an email

that isn't working either
oh well

who is your daughter, wills? do we know her on babble?
do you have a good meat pie recipe?
me?
she is quiet - screen name is greekdiva
Yes, you herin
tell her to come and be sociable :)
Hubby's computer died last night. we have installed a new hard drive and he has just had to order windows xp to reinstall, he was not happy!
Still it was cheaper than buying a whole new computer
Damn Katie i have a ''copy of xp'' here
I'll tell her
We got a OEM version so it wasn't too bad and at least it is legal. His college course starts this weekend so we had to move really quickly
don't you just hate it when someone says "I'll be there in the afternoon". What time? The afternoon is a long time!!
That and the fact that he doesn't like the laptop and I would need to give it up for him which would slash my babble time given that the thought police have blocked it at work
evil thought police
Damn those thought police actually making you do work
exactly!!
So now I can't get babble but can access facebook!
Wills: http://tinyurl.com/b8vdaf meat pie recipe from a mag I trust
THANKS, herin - husband is from oz and he would really enjoy some home cooking.
www.taste.com.au is good super food ideas and Australian Good Taste Fool proof and they work. Does he like Hedgehog slice?
Uh oh - separated by a common language. Never heard of it but he probably loves it.
yeahhhhh Friday night with Jonathan Ross is back this week :-)
Is he there?
yes - getting ready for work
Ask him :D
*thought herin was talking about Jonathan Ross*
No Katie. Trying to help an expat
If I go and nap, I'm sure the front door surveyor guy will turn up. It's just Sod's law
Enjoy Ata
yep bound to happen ata, it's the way of the world. If you don't nap he will turn up at 5.30
he doesn't know what it is.
*exactly*!
FIREWORKS!:-)
you could try and provoke him with a nap! We used to light a cigarette when fed up of waiting for food, always turned up straight away
hi all, can someone help me with today's theme please?ty
it's family heirlooms TO

Katie - that tricks works when waiting for buses and taxis, too.
hmmm how do you pircutre guilt in an icon?
Katie do that here for a bus. I swear if the world stopped smoking buses would never turn up
Thanks - will have to try it.
Works for buses too, Katie!
with a red shame face
why Jean?
Ahhhh right that is how to picture guilt, sorry being a bit slow here
I was thinking that. go and nap, wait for the doorbell, help him, then properly nap! tada!
made me think of guilt
this is a tricky little grid
WOw hive mind on smoking and buses here
I have to go to a meeting at 3pm so am preparing myself for it mentally whilst playing babble
Will if you are on facebook you can gladly add me
you actually have smoking buses?
We don't have smoking anything anymore

Only if they're burning oil, TO.:-)
I'll have to start one - been avoiding that.
No Temple but when one is waiting for public transport the standard joke is that you light up a smoke and the thing arrives on time
sorry but at least it's not a word :-)
Wills i can be emailed if you wish

mmm whole grain wheat and honey toast and tea...mmm
with rabbit jam?
Good Morning Mr hair. I had oatmeal and raisins, not nearly as yummy.
mmm rabbits....
mmmmmm crossy hope you brought some for us all
oatmeal and raisins is the best
but i'll pass on the rabbit jam
sorry,fresh out of rabbit jelly
thanks lori
It was alright, not a huge fan of oatmeal...
I love it, I have oatmeal and raisins / banana every morning
i cant stand oatmeal anymore,had it all the time as a kid.mom would make a weeks worth and just cut of slabs as needed;(((
SO healthy Ata!. I prefer an everything bagel and cream cheese from Dunkin Donuts, but...its not appropriate every day.
slabs! ewww!
thick enough to stop a bullet ata
I've realised it's the only way I can start a day if I'm on a diet - it's the only thing that I actually like that keeps me unhungry for a good while
retoke is a word
good Lord Crossy, I don't blame you for not wanting oatmeal then
I make the bestest oatmeal
nor me! that sounds awful
I think the texture sometimes bothers me.
Cross's mom was very pratical, but clearly not a gourmande.
i think ma read too many scottish cook books when in the auld country:/
i like my oatmeal creamy with a bit of brown sugar
it's one of those things you have to make exactly right for you. I hate eating oatmeal made by other people, it's always too runny or too thick or or or
good morning crossy, nono

Good morning...
howdy car
it's certainly a morning, car
i got these kitties because we have REAL mousies, and these gals will be a big part of my integrated pest managmenet system!
Good morning CAR!!!
..crossy watches a ball of black fur go flashing by....
crossy whispers the words "kitty treat" and the dust settles and i now have 3 wide pairs of eyes staring at me....
when that happens to me, it usually means a migraine is coming on!
pull your trousers up, crossy!
I hope they turn into good mousers trif! I still say Calicos and torties are the most aggressive mousers.
Ok is it me, or if this gridmore user friendly than most? I have only been at this for a while this am, and have 35 left...??
yes, it is going quickly,. red
seems relatively easy when i can focus on it, red
if the grid was any easier, dr g would have to give us a refund
tho i must admit, the le 6, 18 has me gridlocked. any one have a clue, please?
crossy dives into the grid...sploosh!
I am surprised by it....
You mail that le trif....with a stamp.
Nail mail, Trif.
trif, think about the mail
send a le 6 maria address it to my wife
That should be snail mail.
good LAWD - duh for me!
thanks all
TY though! I needed it too!
yw trif
i love that song, BR :)
i had a tortie, red and she was definitely not a mouser unless it was filled with catnip
I "gave my mom a torite. she is a bit scary, brings home snakes, frogs, and we have caught her each year actually pawing into bird houses after the little squeakies....
The calico we had was the same...
hello
actually both Calicos...were very aggressive.
I am planning on keeping them inside, red, as i have fed enough coyotes for a good long while
Hi Harp Jane
funny you should say she was a bit scary.... mine was a true witch always hissing at something or someone
mornin babblers!
Luckily where my parents live there are no cyotes.
seems a lot of calico and torti's have a bit of split personality.
morning Eva
my friend theorizes that the mosaic-ing that gives them their colors extends to their brains.
I think they are very special, and I also have the same feeling about gray cats. And there is something genetically unique as all calicos are always female....
not all, red. i've met 2 male calicos.
just most. and they've gotta be genetically wrong to be male ;)
realy jes? they are very rare
really? I always heard they were all female!
i've heard that male calicos are almost always sterile
the calico trait is sex-linked i guess
SO they are like Enuch cats....?
they have to have 2 X chromisomes. so the vast majority are female. but you can have XXY males.
the coding for both black and orange is carried on the X chrom. so to get a calico, you have to have a cat with 2 X's, that are expressed in different areas (mosaic pattern) to get patches.
where is the coding to attack crossy's willy?
Jess, you are so Cat smart!
that's in the mid-brain, and not related to color, that's just being a cat ;)
over-educated, red. that's me.
nah, yo can never be over educated and that was interesting this morning.
glad i didn't bore you terribly ;)
now if only i could make my house work today.
No! I actually would like to some day have a cat, if I could be sure I was not moving again and the dog wouldnt shke the poor thing to its doom.
i appreciate the explanation, that way i don't have to go to wikipedia....
ccr "lookin out my back door" :))
how many letters in the E words please?
get a big old tom cat that'll beat up the dog
I admit to haveing a predeliction for Calicos. and the wierd gray cats....with big gray cat eyes.
Well that's FIREWORKS for me so i am off to convince hubby he needs to take me shopping - we have no bread or milk
sorry, harp, haven't got any
have a good day, kazz :)

indeed
this grid got a lot less friendly once I only had 25 left. mean old grid!
I have 43 to go...and slowing way down!
well, it's now 7am. time for me to get out bed or something (never mind that i've been up since 4:30). guess i'll wander off and find something for breakfast on the way to work.
Got it down to 37...but now I am going for the list! i have so many stats that just need 1 or 2 more! GRRRR!
it is always tricky when there is no s....
more unique words to find
crossy pops in for a sec..was painting the hall and new black kittty stuck his nose in the paint tray,so now i have a black kitty with a "beachcomber" nose
oh, excellent!
LOL. Curiosity redecorated the cat.
sweet! Kitty wants to go "blonde"!
good one, judi!
My friend's cat did that and we joked about the cat getting "highlights"!
Cats and painting generally don't mix. Last time I painted a room, I had a tarp thrown down over the rug. One cat played under the tarp for about an hour. Goof ball.
Well, I have 28 left and the grid has become nonsense, going to head out into the chill and do the gym.......grrrrr.
that must have been hilarious, judi!
Every time I moved the ladder, I had to make sure I didn't put it on a lump in the tarp that just happened to be the cat.
crafter is not found in the dictionary?????......don't tell that to Martha Stewart
my poor mom was here to watch the inauguration, and brought her knitting with her - the kittens thought it was a playground solely for their benefit. She finally gave up, cut them their own length of yarn and let them have at it. we were cracking UP
Kittens and yarn. Oh, how cliche!
lk, I said the same thing! Doesn't seem right, does it???
goddamn just 28 words so far
I know, LK! I was horrified it wasn't there!
nope.....my wife is a serious "crafter"
carol duvall must be wicked pissed too!
is carol duvall still around?......my wife cannot find her show on tv anymore....
she is not making new shows, but she is on reruns on the diy channel....
May I please have a clue for the first KE 6?
thanks Trif
do the letters have to be adjacent or something?
ke+ to 4/4
oh, you KNOW this one, car - the gambling game on tv in bars....
newbie here so excuse the doubt
keno
the two ke6's differ by only one letter
well OOOPS!
Yeah, that is a 4/8
good clue mag!
penalty box for magmom
tote
ans lkd
oops
oops, sorry car - the ke is ke + music notes
have that one.
the penalty is I have to drive my kids to school and they will undoubtedly bicker on the way
penalty box for me too
is this what they call a crime wave?
try ke + primo and his friends, spelled wrong
my dad's favorite musical instrument is in here, t7
That would be the one! TY!
i think trif is taking a stroll over to the PB also, for her music NO4s!
oops. sorry.....
did you leave pastries? coffee? baked goods of any kind???
i just had some honey bunches of oats...heh
One must always leave "bread crumbs" behind in the PB.
is the at6 a common word?
I couldn't get it either, Jane.
farce aint a word?
Faily common, Harpjane. You pitch one in the camp ground.
TY Judi!
thanks judi
Good morning
Yes, it is Bio. Try entering it again.
Does any one know what 'oysters rockefeller is'?
yes, phae
Oysters Rockefeller is a famous oyster dish served at many restaurants throughout the United States. The dish consists of oysters on the half-shell that have been topped with various other ingredients (often spinach or parsley, cheese, a rich butter sauce and bread crumbs) and are then baked or broiled.
thanks car
Just pulled it up from Google so I would get it right!
Not to be confused with rocky mountain oysters.
Ummm...definitely not judi!
ewwwww
That's just Fear Factor, Survivorman food.
Morning all. Are those the same as prairie oysters?
I need a muffin....be right back!
I believe so, pythonx.
then i agree with trif, ewwwwww
do people even still eat those?
Hey! I'm down to 22. Yay me!
go judi!!!!
8 here
i knew someone 20 years ago who did, don't know about now
My husband was in Colorado a few years ago for a conference. Went to a somewhat upscale dining establishment and RM Oysters were on the menu as an appetizer. Yak! Gag! Erk!
seriously, pythonx? like, ate them as a choice? not just on a dare or something?
ewwwwwww
they come from, what, sheep?
no, this was something they did at bull castrating time
I guess they are a regional delicacy. I'd rather eat a bug.
I just can't imagine. there is no muscle or anything, so what the heck are they like?
12...
i wonder if that's where cowboys get all their testosterone
I"ve heard them described as "kind of like tough liver". Even more reason not to eat them!
just....why? who looked at one of those and thought, oh let's eat it!!!
well, other than crossy's cats, which we have already established...
it probably started as a dare
When you think about it, regular oysters are pretty gross too.
yes, judi, they are. I am a true old new england gal, eat every single thing that the sea offers, except those. just can't get past the phlegm ball nature...
I understand completely, Trif. I just can't bring myself to eat raw shellfish. However, I love steamed clams, but I hate oysters and mussels. Go figure.
even steamed? steamed mussels are about the best source of lean protein there is
I think a great many of today's ocean delicacies exist as a direct result of starving indians and colonists. Food for thought: the closest genetic relative to the lobster is... a cock roach.
yes, I know judi. and the pilgrims here considered lobsters and clams "garbage food" and would only eat them if they were, quite literally, in the throes of starvation
still love my mussels, though
Mussels taste too fishy to me. And that greenish color... erk.
mussels aren't green, they are orange!
I suppose there are different varieties. I have seen both green and orange. Most of the ones around us are greenish. Must be a Chesapeake Bay thing.
oh, man, please promise me you eat lots and lots of those wonderful crabs you have down there....mouth is watering just thinking about old bay spice....
Eh, I can take or leave crabs. I like them, but they are just too much work for too little reward.
when we used to go to bethany beach we used to get bags and bags of them, and sit there cracking and smacking for hours....heaven!
I'm a Delaware transplant by way of UpState NY. I suppose that accounts for my indifference to crabs. I'd rather jump into a vat of drawn butter and wrestle me a big old lobster.
LOL. Old Bay. I swear, the entire state of Maryland reeks of it.
hey all
that works too, judi! love my lobsters. don't cook much seafood here at home though. I suppose I should do a lot more, so I can get really good at it.
hello bf!
how is babble land
hi bf
Lobsters have been dirt cheap this year. Now's a good time. Most grocery stores will steam them for you.
Hello, BF!
Gotta scoot for a while. Real work intrudes again.
hello all!
bye judi! LOL

My son switches to afternoon kindergarten so I will have one boy home with me at all times now!

ty brab
ha ! and monkeyed my last !! Fireworks
Ye olde electricity ..
Yay pug!
wellit's like this. i had a job then they put in anew team leader who has not said a word to me except one unpleasant one since he came on board in decemebr. if he did not need me to get up to speed then they don't need me at all. they have been hard at workk showing me just that.
:( well that is not nice
after they promised that i would not work for this person and that our jobs were separate.
if they promised you wouldn't work for this person, does that mean they already knew he was unpleasant? if so, why did they hire him?
and they are no p o'd that i went over their heads to get transferred. you see, the guy was more qualifeid than me but i hear him asking everyone how to do things.
had nothing to do with personality. just the work structure. you can be unpleasant as yo like here to the underlings.
it is unfortunate that there are so many incompetent and/or annoying people in the world
so yes i am spiteful.
in this instance.
i'm sorry :(
anyway i think it's time to change the subject i am sorry to bring it up
we all need to vent sometimes
not here.
time to go, later all *poof*
had to monkey that annoying pf word:/
*peeks head in* did you say pf word?
indeed
how many letters?
its more of a sound effect indicating annoyance rather than a real word
4

BR -- why did the duck cross the road?
To show it wasn't chicken.
to get from the left to the right?
and i have the ultimate solution as to what came first,the chicken or the egg.....
Hello. First time here. :)
do tell, crossy
howdy san..we are sane,so relax and welcome
:D
speak for yourself crossy ;-)
we of course the egg came first,since as we all know the egg is an actual egg while the chicken is merly a potential chicken and since actuality beat out potentiality any time,the egg must come first
yes crossy....but who?what laid the egg?
imaculate egg laying it just went poof
but what about the creationist theory that the animals were made first?
well i am of the belief that when we are done with it,the whole thing goes back to the bees or dolphins so what the heck;)
maybe they will do a better job
smoke alarm just went off -- lunch must be ready! :P *poof*

Everyone wish me luck, please. After 15 weeks of waiting the lady is coming out tomorrow from the city to discuss my application for some housecleaning help because of the back problem.
homecare sort of thing? or govt funding to pay for independant?
one left - p7 - help pls
we are tryong to convince my wifes mom and dad to do this to ease thier work load now they are getting up there in age
She'll decide. The city may send someone once or twice a week to help with the kitchen an dbathrooms or they may choose to send me an amount of money per month to employ someone myself. Hoping for the former-- less paperwork.
i got it
my father has this set up due to back issues they come thrice a week
Is that a regular thing in Canada? In the states you usually have to pay through the nose and here you don't pay at all if you qualify.
it is not regular and you have to jump through flaming hoops...in triplicate
The lady coming tomorrow, her job is one I could apply for now that I have my degree coming to me... just the sort of thing it's aimed at.

Today I sent "open applications" to two municipalities, the one where I live an dthe one 20 minutes by trike from here where Walter goes to school, and I applied at the place that pretty much runs all the facilities for working with the handicapped, many levels and types of that work. Hope I get something... but still dreaming of the art studio for people with vran damage. I really like that place, I could SO like working there!
I am useless to you regarding the L words.

sounds great red, did you see top chef last night?
I need the luck. Lets hope the smell of fresh paint and nice stuff will make it sell.
Yes jess Mom, I did. I really thought the other team should have won and that the dessert lady could hae still gone home.
You?
yep, carla could have easily gone home. I was surprised at how uncomfortable radika was. She was the team leader, but didn't lead anyone.
SHe is not going to advance to the finals...
carla definitely needs to send more than lo4/7 out of the kitchen!
Radicka that is, I also think Carla and leah and Josea will all go home!
LOL jessm!
I agree red. I thought the whole kiss thing was ridiculous.
it was funny though how people are/can be...
the little behind the scenes clips during commercial breaks have been cool/funny. Jeff's guessing game was neat.

Hello all

yep - just found this a few months ago.
oh okay
I am not on here too much anymore
just seems like I always have too much going on
Join the club! I make it on for 20 minutes or so of an evening, as now.
I have passed everything and get my degree next week though-- so between then and getting paid work I'll be on a bit more unless the weather improves so I can paint the trike. Going for Tlingit style.
12 to go - can anyone clue me AT 6/18 please???
I sure wish I could, Jindigo!

Thanks Jess and Bich!

It's called "sociale dienstverlening" (yes, the college was in Dutch). It's a sort of broad spectrum social work Bachelor's degree equavalent with emphasis on beurocrtaic disentangling, conflict resolution, debt relief, getting people like asylum seekers into the system here, that kind of thing.
OK, House warning-- will suddenly drop out of chat at any second and come back for commercials.
wow--sounds pretty comlicated
complicated that was supposed to be LOL
FAR more than I imagined 3 years ago when I interviewed myself into it. I'm exhausted. But despite my expectations I have done it.
good for you
It was especially hard in Dutch-- my naytive language is English.
Thanks! It hasn't fully sunk in yet.
LOL English is my only language
took some Spanish in school
not that I remember any of it
I used to speak Spanish pretty fluently (I'm from Southern California). But it got replaced by Dutch. Once in a while I do still have a dream in Spanish, though, and when I wake up I realize it was in real and GOOD Spanish... but then it fades. Weird.
Been here 16 years. Fully naturalized, not US citizens anymore. Oops, House tiome! Bye for now!
that is weird
must be nice to know more than one language
bye monkey

hey there, red, we are still the only 2 people playing the multiplayer game in Scramble, do you want to delete the game or do you want me to do it?
I thought I deleted it? I didnt? Oh crud.

Feel free to. I will never start any more multiple player games again, people dont love it like we do.
I don
I don't like multi player games
cause most people never take their turn
i hae had littler success with them :(

I will delete it when I finish Babble

Fun

No lickety today.
I didnt use it I meant.
go red go
woot woot as stid would say--good for you
be careful you will send panic down the blog
jmc, how was all the inauguration stuff...?
it was bad if you took their advice and used the subway. I drove and had a fine time
But how was *it* was it lovely?
my parties were really great and people were walking around acting like we were all friends
Awesome. My Parents went crazy, apparently turned on TV at 8 am and never turned it off all day...
I couldn't last watching official stuff that long. I got some Babble in and everyone on the chog was giddy
I worked, but I was rather giddy all day.
you silly "gids"
I have been called worse things
I think I was mored excited about his closing of Gitmo declaration....
like a dem (hehe)
I actually got chocked up today listening to Hilary Clinton address the state department
good afternoon, everyone - jm how was your salsa party tuesday night?
don't go there
I missed that entirely, I suppsoe I was running.
well I am not hungover any more lol
oh, haven't heard hillary yet - i'll catch it later on MSNBC i'm sure
sounds like a fine party jmc!
wonderful speech
the big story on this end is Caroline Kennedy's crash and burn as potential Senator
oh too bad she was a sentimental favorite at my age group
Oddly I am not really suprised, I am not sure Caroline K was actually very qualified to be the Senator given her position on politics most of her life...
she was absolutely not a political person at all - very private - and not very well prepared to face the public as it turns out
it is a fairly high level entry pposition
the others being mentioned are no great improvement over her - except Andrew Cuomo - I hope he gets it
well it will be odd not to have any Kennedys in office when Ted dies
What happened JBV...?
I think Cuomo is going to get it.
we are still hearing rumors, conflicting stories - first she said she wanted to withdraw because of Uncle Ted,
I have mixed feeling about Cuomo
something abotu housekeeper....
now they're looking at her record of tax payments, illegal nannies, etc....
So she isnt that squeaky clean...
OMG I make a fortune everytime someone chucks it over nannie taxes
that's true, jm - we thought there would be two Kennedys in the senate, now maybe none
how so, jm?
If all these tax evaders would pay up, we would have far fewer problems in the economy.
(I do tax returns on the side)
LOL jmc! You can do my horrid return this year if you like....
I am always appalled how little these people pay for their nannies (because after all day care isn't good enough for their little darlings) and then don't even pay the &*+_) taxes
I love doing tax returns. They are like crossword puzzles
wow, that's a great marketing angle, jm, you'd get my business!
jmc, I hate it. It is not like a crossword puzzle, not at all. I am always this close to being in violation of some tax law, soooo.
JBV how is family?
red, we are hanging on bravely, situation has not changed for the better, doctors feel another surgery is needed but it's too soon, so we are living in limbo
afternoon babble pals :)
Well, I am glad things are sort of the same and not worse. thinking of you guys.
thanks, red, I appreciate that
hey kaz
brb
okay - - I get the hint...quitting for now - - more than 1/2
hint Lexlee?
sorry my sister came to the door
hi kaz
was it something I said lex?
I dont know it is probably our odd socalist marxist leanings.
evlet
Oh darn it all.
i think it was something we didn't say - no one said hi to lex
lol red so is that the reason your turtle is red?
hi lexie!
No JBV we did.
oh, ok, then I have no idea
we talked to lex
I think she is not a fan of Hillary clinton, or Obama....
now I feel bad
Yet her profile says that she left because of Bush go giure
has anyhone seen Slumdog millionaire? saw it last night - amazing movie - very deserving of all the awards - the kid actors were phenomenal
I actually feel a little simple because I so of** say hi to people
I will put that on my list of films
and in case you were all wondering, that slum in Mumbai is actually a real place - I remembered reading an article about it, found it again in National Geographic May 2007
Oh yes, I want to see it.
hi Jmcrick!
*looking back* that was "go figure"
hi red!
hi JBV!
the story line is entirely predictable but the characters are so compelling
hello
jmc, she left not because of Bush but because she is afraid of what may happen under Obama, you note her flag is still Bermuda.
hi jmcnrick - by the way what can we call you for short? if anything
Heloooo Phaeton!
help with the le 7/32 please
oh I so didn't understand that red
hi phaeton
Kaz, what ballerinas wear.
ty red
jmc, I know the history a bit better.....which is the only way I understood what is written in her profile!
oooh ty red
hi kazozz
JBV I saw slumdog last saturday...thought it was one of the best movies I've ever seen
I can not find my last 11.
well what can I say I am a yellow dog Dem as was my parents and grandparents
and the last scene with the dancing on the train platform - that was beautiful! loved it!
*were*
yeah that was great JBV...i thought the young kid actors were amazing too
yes, me too. I was amused as I had to hear my Mothers complete rendition of the inauguration, THEN she gave my Dad the phone and he had to gie me the same rendition...and I saw it...
that's funny, red
my mother is 95 and was entranced!
I did like the Daily Show last night
Well, My parents are of that civil rights generation...They were in College in the 60's and did some work, so to them its cool. My Dad told me yesterday, "Obama is "our type" of people....
I will see Daily show from last night tonight at 8 pm
yeah well I was in college in 69 so that means I am about your parents age *feeling old and tired all of a sudden*
I need a C...have 1 ce; 2 cr...cr4 & 5...?
that's interesting red, I think a lot of people are reading things into Obama that are not necessarily there, he is not a child of the 60's and is more open to alternative points of view (and I was in college in the 60's, so I know the "type" - I'm one of them!:)
Oh jmc, my parents are cool, but if it makes you feel better my Dad was in Grad school....so you are not my parents age...
whew!
does that go for me, too, red - I graduated in 1971
sorry phaeton only c is cr 4/6
I think what my Dad likes is the fact that Obama reads books, and likes Jazz and such...
Ok I will not tell you I was actually alive in 71, but...
not voting.
nm, found it
just barely alive red!
when I was one I had just begun....
who was quoting milne yesterday?
when I was two, I was nearly new
when I was three, I was hardly me
when I was four, I was not much more
not me I took yesterday off
(stop me, if you can't stand this)
just got meself a nice lexmark printer/scanner/copier/fax for $69.00 ;)))
I like Kelly better: Once I was two dear birthday friend inspite of purple weather

the da*%* fruit flies are drowning themselves in my sherry
switch to high voltage vodka
that new 100 proff stuff from absolut
proof
I may have to try Jack to see if they will go away
friut flies will go up in flames
proof not poof
jack will work
They are drowning as it is but I have to strain them out or . . . .ich
mr daniels does not prmote fruit flies;)
promote even
I will do an experiment and let you know
or you can think of the fruit flies along the idea of eating the algave worm at the bottom of the bottle of tequila
is the AA for fruit flies?
yeah about the algave worm . . .
hi BR
Oh no jmc, this is another reason not to drink.
My fruit flies are a friend of Bill's
darn dog is needing more walking doesnt he know I am tired and ran today? Going now....
hello, jm
bye red see you later
must be friends of kervorkian too
lol BR
mm got me thinking along the lines of pouring a drop "o the creature since the sun is now over the yardarm:))
the sun is always over the yardarm somewhere
yaa for world curvature!
indeed crossy
the lack of s causes me to work
im down to 38 and sweating bullets..:/
worms are not in tequila - fyi
81 for me but I am not so exeperienced
is the algave worm just renting then?
experienced
it is in mezcal... not tequila
it can have the bottle forever as far as I am concerned
same family just the parents wenrt really married
cant drink the stuff anyways
what is worse than a worm in an apple?
tequila is a kind of mescal
half a worm in an apple
half a worm
LOL BR
drink enough of it and you wont give a darn about its parentage:)
tequila is made from only the blue agave.... mezcal is made from other agaves, but not blue... the do taste different
I live in hope crossy
mostly, tequila is smoother and slightly more refined... mezcal is hard stuff
u used to drink sambuca (sp) and float 3 coffee beans of it and set it afire..but it was too hard on my beard and mousetache hehe
mmmmm hard stuff
i
lol crossy
not a fan of sambuca... but then, don't like black licorice either
BR - I need a clue
now I am thinking about retsina
now that is some nasty stuff... like turpentine
then i doscovered the varied and interesting world of high end vodkas..except to that special one from smirnoff that cost 2 grand for a 26 oz bottle!!!
damn typos
vodka used to be my poison of choice
me too - love vodka
and tequila
retsina is wonderful
but not together
grey goose and smirnoff red label are interestingly enough a tie
but I am really a Jack fan these days
the smirnoff blue label is nice also
I bought my son grey goose for christmas
jack causes insanity lol
fireworks for me..not a bad grid today!
oohoo kaz
whaccha saying crossy?
ive been meaning to try absinthe..can actually get it at our outlet

riff ****
krista - I sent you a message in FB re: mab ..

ty BR
very nice krista - thanks
Thanks, Tor. She gave me her name but that was all.

No cammo and dead rats then..cool! Seriously,tho..glad to hear it.
P

congrats, redT

well do not completely ignore me...
incomplete ignore commences
I think g is really hard, but I am new.
torgone..is she one of your friends? i couldnt find her with her name last night
stuck on the ef6
some Gay guys are ef6
ef6 - feminine... mostly used when speaking of men
fbf...think wimpy
think feminine faith
KJE! How'r ya?
dan!!!!
hi dan
I sent a friend suggestion to both of you ..
good dan! long time!
i'll try those first...
hi jmcn
thanks Tor..hi Dan..wow..how are you?
DR said you are working too hard
hi krista (I am a little slow on the uptake today)
abetterjulie, have you looked at Lickety's Babble Clues below?
yes, it has been a while...I hate when work interferes with my babbling time!
no, but ty, I will.
OK so now, we have fireworks.
that's ok, jm..that pic is beautiful!!
Hi Krista! Work is busy, but hopefully slowing down a bit now that the holidays are over!
woohoo red!!!
ef6 - lacking in wholesome vigor
I am stuck at 6... picked up for a bit, but now back facing the wall
ty krista It is my husbands grandmother
yes, I was gone for about 6 months until recently..but now sucked in as badly as before..darn work interfering with Babble
and red is here too! I have missed you ladies!
Dan...did darth get what he auditioned for?
i read that, jm...why was she meeting Kaiser Wilhelm?!
ge 4 4 6 gl 4 5 5 6 go 6
glote
he didn't get all state (no 9th graders did...wait til next year!), but he made all county again!
hmmmm - haven't missed tor or BR, dan? LOLOL
ANd now I need to do some icon updating, I am tired of the barn.
congrats, redT have you walked the sand cranes today?
haven't see Darth on here since I've been back..does he still Babble?
I did not see them today Babble I hope they did not freeze.
I missed tor too, and i talked to BR a couple of times since the last time I saw you
darth was on just recently... maybe last week?
Darth is taking a babble break for a bit...he needs to work on his mid-terms...although he does sneak in when he thinks I'm not paying attention
oops
Lol..there are lots worse things he could be sneaking, dad.
if we see him danf, we shall ask about how his midterms are going....
don't worry about it kje...most of the time DR1965 rats him out anyway
he needs to resist the pull of the chog
his last one is next week, so maybe he'll return after that
yay! all the d words!
woo hoo Julie!
good for you, julie
wtg julie
that's the funny part Krista, he chog's, but only get about 50 words...then complains that he doesn't ever finish a grid
yay julie!
tomorro is Friday, take a word from the grid day, anyone want to guess a word, so I can get an icon...
hmm...sounds like me, Dan
toea... red
aww, thanks guys. :)
Krista what did you think of resturaunt wars?
whatever! I'm going!
uh oh..I started to type one that is always in the grid..and it's here today! te**
bye kje
you can use one of my favorites, redT, absquatulate
I was sad to see what's-her-name go...but she did kind of drop the ball
what did u think?
shell money or absquatalate? Oh, maybe I should put up a picture of teulu....in his less hairless days....
use nene...I've never seen one, so it would help me out!
I rather thought Carla senidng love out of the Kitchen should have been sent home with love.
need an A - have ae4, af5... and?
oh yeah..lol..i thought she would get it after she said that..she's a flake
nene..great idea..some kind of goose, right?
at6
hawaiian goose... weirs a lei
from back when I used to actually look up words I didnt know
at6... OK...looking
you need an at kje.
a Hawaii'an goose
wears might be better
I have changed but not to nene.
refreshing
kje, that's not a hint. That's spy talk!
what is it red... can't tell
just teulu in my parents stream...
hmmmm Red...
my dog in a stream...
thats all...Maybe I need a different dog photo.
great pic
hmmmm at6
my Mom took it, and she is terrified of the dog, oddly.
oh, nene...i thought that was the hint for at6!
the center of the camp site...at + te4
LOL... we lost julie
ty dan... was not seeing it
ty dan
*hands julie a map for the chog* Don't worry, we all get lost sometimes!
lol, i got it now, thanks dan!
yvw
im down to 32 and sweating each one:((
are there only two LE words?
bbl got to get something to warm myself
61 left
nene is a word that's in the grid often...they were throwing that out there as an icon theme idea for Red..on Fridays, the theme for icon pictures is a word from the grid..she was trying to get a head start before she saw tomorrow's grid
4 here... all 6
pandiculation a stretching out when drowsy or when waking; loosely used for 'yawning'
go 6/24 please
16
ok, by the time i typed all that, you were caught up. **nevermind** :)
aha, that makes sense! I had to go google nene to catch up!
you would have go6 the go6 if you had looked in the other direction
yes, BR... I often use pandiculation instead of yawning... much easier ; )
It's also that chick on Real Housewives of Atlanta ;)
nm found it
jm...
stretch/yawn combo can't beat that
sounds good... think I will take a break and pandiculate... on my way to find food...
bbiab
good to see you dan, don't be such a stranger
see you for now syfn kje
sleep/sleep combo is pretty good too BR
I'll be back tomorrow kje

just wanted to make sure you saw my condolences below
No, I hadn't seen it but scrolled down and saw. Thank you for your thoughts. It was quite devastating but, we are honoring his memory by adopting another dog.
how is your dayghter doing?
We chose an adorable black lab mix yesterday, he is in my profile pic
she is fine. My son is still having a hard time though. He isn't warming up to the new pooch too much
I was wondering if that was the new dog...he is beautiful. Your daughter is, too!
very adorable dog Phan!
yes, she is gorgeous not sure where those looks came from...
it will come
His name is Prince, at least for now. I think we will keep it though.
need some wter- brb
Listen to you...she looks a lot like you, I think! I never saw your husband, but she does resemble you.
well, yes she does, but she does have my husband's coloring and I think she is way prettier than me.
can I have a clue for the TO 7?
to 7 === heavy weight miniature
is there some trick to the ea5?
consumed
duh, thank BR!
my mother always tells me my daughter is my clone..except she is prettier than I am lol
i think i have been looking this grid too long.
hi all my buddies
you are very pretty, Krista. I love your hair!
when you go away and come back, Julie, you'll see all kind of new words
**blushing** thanks :)
Hi Gwen!
ok, bbl
Gwen, did Jellen get in touch with you about her antique book question?
see ya!
Hi Gwen
Later Julie
hi krista, and yes, she axed me lotta Qs
howdee lind
anyone have antique books, just send 'em to me LOL
I just wondered what is best online site for sales; if you have an opinion on that.
Well, you are the Book Doctor. We respect your physician's credentials. ;)
no single answer. either you do business with an evil corporation (amazon, ebay, abe) or an ethical website (tomfolio, popula, antiqbook). one will sell your books while it eats you alive with fees and restrictions, the other won't
if someone clued TO 7 I missed it
Just getting those site names is very helpful. Thanks.
to 7 == heavy weight miniature
i'm back. bored eating dinner, so here again
thank you
i sell at base price on tomfolio.com, but have to raise my prices a lot to sell on amazon. their fees are extreme and they lie about them, too
hi everyone - a quick one?
wb julie
hi josh
wb Julie
quick grid? nope
i sold some on half.com...i'm sure you're very adept at it, but I find listing books VERY tedious..ugh...grid is medium, i'd say..
not nearly as bad as I thought it would be when i saw the size
how big are they usually, Krista?
i've never listed anything on half; i have heard nothing but atrocious things about it; however, i list on alibris, and they generously copy my listings for me onto half, so i have sold about 4 items there
varies a lot..but seems the smaller they are, the harder they are...300+ is huge...most in..hmm...100-200 range? what do others say?
i just listed an item on ebaY -- i almost never use ebaY to sell unless I have something very unusual
Smallest I have seen was around 78, biggest 599 but in general around 200 - 300 i would say!
a medium size grid here is about 150-250. they have been under 50 once in a while, and over 500, so I've heard. i like them to be about 200
lickety: Average Word Count: 177 words
nothing sells on ebay anymore...yes, half.com is pretty bad, I agree..bought on Alibris but never sold..are they affiliated with half??
ok, and do you usually finish it?
Mostly julie, if I have time!
i try to finish any grid that i start, julie
i usually get down to the last 10% or so, then give up 8-)
but it's much harder some days than others
I thought the grid was pretty quick up to the last 23 words... joshua.
LOL BR!
How are you enjoying the snow joshua?
Largest Word Count 599 words 10300 02 Nov Smallest Word Count 35 words 400 28 Dec
i remember that 599 one - it was brutal!
I remember the 599 grid!
i just dont have time to finish...so I have learned to let go of the stats and just enjoy finding what I find and chatting
well, i have 51 left. I am just glad I made it halfway!
i hope we get a big un tomorro, i have time.
alibris is "reseller" agreements with half, borders, barnesandnoble, chapters, and other big chain-type sites. they list their vendor's products on those sites, and those sites pay some kind of fee to alibris. the exact details are pretty hush hush
that's my usual goal, Julie..half...wow, I missed the 599 one!!!
oh yeah, 599. that was fun for the first 250 words or so . . .
599 seems crazy.
It took some time to complete julie!! LOL
it was an accomplishment
i could use a hint for the ne4 words. I have the one that you use in tennis.
oh, thanks..didn't know that, Gwen..good info....do you have stats on how many finished, BR?
te5,10 and te6,18 please - are they related?
Crazy Crazy for feeling so lonely Im crazy Crazy for feeling so blue I knew Youd love me as long as you wanted And then someday Youd leave me for somebody new
i finish the grid on days when i have time to kill, or am taking a "lazy" day, if you know what I mean
ne4, opposite of high tide (weird word)
oh i know exactly what you mean...my boss just texted me and asked how things are coming along..I told him I was halfway done. I didnt tell him I was talking about Babble!
te5 is a rule of thumb, or principle
ne 4 -- tide; ne 4 -- close; ne 4-- tidy; no 4-- short missive; no 5 -- one who no 4
krista, sneaky!!
heh heh
ty BR
hi all
BR, you look too young to play babble LOL
I have that te Book Doctor - do you have the other?
hi jilli
Hey Jilli
hi Jilli!
I have a written okay from my mommy
forward, check out babblerabble's clues at 6:39
n done, thanks for hints!
oh... i got the 8 all by myself!
has anyone finished all the p?
book and krista, your conversation is interesting. My book about Dane development is self-published and people have complained that they can't find it on Amazon etc. That's because it would have to be priced out of reach. It's 8 x 11 x 1" and heavy so the postage is out of sight. Should I investigate tomfolio etc?
I don't need clues for any n's
te 6 -- t + the bigger the b*****
julie, I finished a while ago so I can clue. Have you been using Lickety's list?
jull, tomfolio is really not the best place to sell one title. it was set up for independent used bookdealers who have a lot of stock. base fee is $35/mo but there are no commissions or "final value fees" or any crap like that
ty BR!
yes, jili. I have all of them but the last two p6's.
I see, book. Have you any suggestions?
jill, does your book have an isbn?
pr 5 -- add consumed
if not, i can help you get it onto amazon anyway . . .
the last pa6 is the pa**** of tiny feet. The ones before it have different last letters
pr 7 -- p + diamondback *****snake
Yes, it has an isbn, gwen
i have the tiny feet one. will figure out the consume one. clue for third?
te5 anyone...it's my last t word.
then i don't quite follow your amazon problem. whay is shipping so expensive?
hey & hugsssssssssss again y'all
t + a swollen finger is inf***ed + vowel
julie, just change the last letter of the tiny feet -- one is a vowel and the other a consonant
Jilli, I have heard others say that about Amazon, too...I'm trying to remember someone very recently...they were finding it impossible to get their book "out there" without Amazon..
te 5-- add choo choo ***in
amazon is actually a good sitein the sense that everyone -- Everyone -- has heard of it. they are very crappy in other ways though!
I didn't know you wrote a book, Jilli! How impressive.
gwen, as I said, the book is heavy and a size large enough that it can't go as a "small packet" from Canada, so postage can be almost $20 per book!
wait, jili! ack! those are pr words, I am missing the pa words, lol!
oh, this is a picture of what my five month old blue point siamese looks like except he is only 5 months old
te 5 -- add, *ap**in and tonille
There was a documentary about independent booksellers recently..made me feel guilty for ever using the big names..not that I am stopping, but...
jill, i forgot you're in canada with no cheap rates for books. if you have a friend in the US then you set up an agreement for them to ship stuff to US customers for you
julie, I've been cluing the three pa6/21 words
lol, your clues are funny BR
hi nance
pa 6 -- pa* boone and golf ball prop
hey lind
pa 6 -- pa* boone and number
jill, i am assuming you have a lot of units to sell, so you are not looking at reprinting it in a smaller size . . . maybe next time
nice to see you, Nance
nvm, jili. I am confusing myself. lol.
thank you babrab
Gwen, I've had buyers from all over -- Germany, Finland, the UK, Netherlands, Canada & USA of course.
hope you don't mind the nickname - if so, let me know & i won't use it again
if you are talking to me, even hey will work
gwen, it can't be done in a smaller size -- lots of pedigree charts and things which would be unreadable smaller. It's very specialised.
that's good -- and i understand about how hard it is to ship a big book. no easy solution to that one. sometimes i offer to split the diff with a customer: they pay half of the necessary extra for sshipping, and i pay half
lol babble
do the charts as fold-outs maybe
at6?
for pity sake! i don't even have an A word - lol
center of the camp site DR...at + te4/4
at 6 -- add canvas enclosure
Thanks anyway, gwen -- at least I've got PayPal now. I lost a few sales when I asked for cheques (sorry, checks in US spelling, lol!)
ty got it - more
ce4 anyone?
That's wonderful, Jilli. I so admire experts..in any field..I can spank anyone in Trivial Pursuit but I'd love to know a lot on one subject rather than useless bits about many...
* 7 more
jill, another possible solution -- set up agreement with your local used book store, or new book store, whatever, to handle the sales and shipping. no longer your problem! 8-)
oh, Krista. Have you ever played my Dan? He is incredible.
ce 4 -- **a for two
ty BR!
well, raleigh got its first snowfall of the year - we got approximately 6 inches yesterday - that's a lot for this area.
gwen, do you think they'd have the slightest interest? Somehow I don't! No local customers who want to know about Gt Dane pedigrees and history!
it's melted now though
No, but I'm sure he's prob good!
and not a day too soon
LOL nance, we have had about 3 feet so far this year!!
so, jillibus, care to share the title and/or isbn so i can look up your book?
lol - it's not melted in fuquay varina yet josh & hey
we have no snow so far this year...this decade, actually
you having a drought there, Lind?
We're still fog-bound here -- or again, I should say. Had a 2-day reprieve.
jillibus, no, the agreement would be that you send customers to them, who want the book, customers order it through them, using their website, they ship the book, then pay you a generous commission
chance would be a fine thing Babble! lol
good goggly goop lind
*sticking my tongue out at danf* lol
Gwen, the title is "The Time Traveller: the development of the Great Dane", ISBN 0-9733198-0-1.
Why not get someone to set up a webpage from where you can sell it? Anyone who is interested would find it if it is keyword optimized.
There's a picture of the cover in my flickr pix if you dig far enough
has someone clued the lo5,10 recently?
okay, looking it up. (i just ran "great danes" through amazon and got 8000+ matches)
I miss snow from when i was in the Army...Not enough to move yet though

gwen, that sounds great -- then would people know to write (email) to me for it?
It wouldn't have to cost a lot at all. You would need someone to maintain it who knows about shopping carts, etc. But I think it would be worth it. Get that grandson hopping. :)
Yay for DR!!!
ok. it is driving me nuts! anyone know the vo5 that isn't what we were for Obama?
krista -- son, not grandson. He doesn't know about shopping carts etc but maybe I can find someone here who does.
I meant son, Jillli.
add a vowel to the electrical term
i would pay the son, jili. that would motivate him.
julie, add a vowel to the electric word
Or even just a PayPal system would work.
no, but thanks julie - i didn't get the r of that work
word*
the website is cheap. the shopping cart is the killer. And you have to set it up to have a shipping amount for each destination you are willing to ship to. (For example, you might leave out Indonesia but include Australia, and so forth)
krista, I have PayPal
evening all
yw, nance. I am shocked i helped someone else!
hello, dan
She could keep it very simple and just use the usps site for shipping rates, don't you think? Like we used to do on Ebay before it was all built in.
having paypal isn't quite enough, you need to give the customer a total before they can pay you, which is the big hangup in mail-order: setting shipping fees that are reasonable to you and to the customer
Hi dan
okay, the bigger the b***** is not a clue i can figure out apparently. got another?
julie, did you get my vo5 clue?
krista, problem is that the books arein CANADA
yes, thank you! My v's are complete!
Oh yeah..but I'm sure you have a similar site. :)
i went to get a few cookies. hey to all i missed entering while i was gone.
Hi Dan
And um, you brought us some, right Nance??
te 6 -- add baseball: ba**** up!
mmm cookies
cookies!!
Imean canada has a similar site, not you, Gwen..chat going so fast
I've already sold some via PayPal -- I just give everyone the same price which includes postage, and it evens out -- there's not a lot of difference between destinations!
i have a gripe about either amazon.com or bn.com used books section! i had found a really cute series of books for daniel that i wanted to buy. found a used seller on one of those sites, i forget which, figured i'd get all the books from one seller. turns out i had to pay 3.95 shipping per book! the site wouldn't let it all be combined into one order.
that's just wrong feather
feather, i agree. amazon has some really shitty policies. that is a big one. (as a seller, i reimburse the overcharge when it happens to my customer)
jili, could you just charge more for the book and pay have free s&h?
krista, what do you mean about Canada having a similar site? Similar to what? PayPal works here.
did you send a complaint to the appropriate department?
feather, i endorse your complaint to amazon!
I think you should go for it, Jilli. Oh...I had mentioned using the US postal service site for shipping info..forgetting you were in Canada.
julie, that's what I do, in effect.
ah, ok
Overstock usually has good deals on shipping.
(i'm pretty sure it was amazon, not bn, because bn's online used books are not engineered by bn anyway)
Ok I am watching now the last nights Daily show with Jon Stewart. Veryv ery amusing.
i didn't put the order all the way through, but i did contact the small bookstore to ask about it. they just said it was the way amazon did it and they couldn't change it. so i ended up not ordering the books.
hi feather..I didnt realize it worked that way...never ordered more than one from a seller..that really stinks!!
hey red
well everyone- thanks for the chat and the clues... we are taking our honor student to dinner at Souplantation- his fave-

this was a small seller, working through whichever site it was.
Canada Post has a site here -- I know all about it.
oop I hate when I do that- Sorry
le7 for my last word - fireworks
the ethical sellers will refund the overcharge - but amazon is infested with ripoff sellers so it is hard to say whether you'll get a refund or not
wtg joshua!
Lovely, DR -- congrats to him!
GNight all and Good Luck- this grid is ugly
that was the tight fitting ballet outfit, joshua
you just wanted to make sure we saw you that time :) have a great evening, DR!
bye DR - give kudos to him for me
amazing!
Oh -- local TV news time -- brb!
thanks all- cya later or tomorrow
you should know that amazon sets the shipping fees (USD3.99 for most books) but the seller gets reimbursed only 2.30 to ship it. that's one of the fees amazon lies about)
Hey Babble Family !
hey aussie
howdee aussie
i didn't end up buying gwen, sadly. and now i forget the name of the series.
brb y'all - got to play something else for a few minutes
Hey Nance, BDG !
everyone well now, Feather? Hi Aussie!
Hey Feather |!
Hey Krista !
hello friends!
Hey Madi !
not quite krista, nick's still having some diaper issues, poor boy. and now hubby is getting a whale of a cold, and being such a bear about it too. ugh.
like my mom says, "there's nothing worse than a sick man..."!
what's up with all the illness in that house weed!
any clues for ge6, 24?
man flu.
no kidding madi! she's got that one right.
kjeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee !
we need to fumigate i think kje
O
M
G
Aw, sorry to hear that. Sounds like us this year..wish all of us would be well at one time for at least a week!
it is aussieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!
Aussie is in da house !
got it, nvm
i think part of it, at least on daniel's end, is this is his first year in preschool, so he's being exposed to everything he'd been sheltered from by being home.
Hi Madi
LOL indeed she is!!! welcome back aussie!
kenaf! is not in the grid 8-(
yep, that would do it..and you get exposed every day you work!
don't know what that is book
Oh Feather, I sympathise there, Smurf got just about everything going last year, she goes to pre-school for half a day a week, and comes home with everything !
A guy was walking down the street when he noticed a little boy walking around with a piece of steak on his head. So he asked, "Little boy, why do you have a piece of steak on your head?" "I'm not a boy," the boy answered. "I'm a fork."
doing better aus? saw about you grnamother... so sorry!
last week, i had 4-6 kids out every day, out of 21.
there's a sickness going around in the 7th grade right now... i went to the nurse for my inhaler today, and there were 3 kids from my grade going home, as well as my literature teacher vomiting
Thanks for the welcome kje !! I missed being here, but you understand why I wasn't....
lol, cute babrab
Great Aunty you mean ?
I understand aussie, just glad to see you!
oh my, madi..hope you avoid it!
oh ugh madi!
oh, how sweet, hope you are already immune, madi!
LOLOL - funny BR - my nephew may like that one
I am happy to be here, **giving Madi Germ Shelter**
oops great aunt!
It was always strange to see a teacher sick...you mean they are human like us?? lol
ROFL Krista !
i remember a college professor running for a sink in our room. class was obviously dismissed!
Yuck.
teachers are not human. at night they shed their skins and breathe dryer lint
She would have been 93 on March 4th.... I only found out this evening, so I don't know causes or anything yet......
yeah! i was surprised too! when i was little, everyone thought teachers lived at school
I have to wait and ring my Mom in the morning.....
hey... there are several teachers in the chog at the moment so be careful, book!
madi just Wash your hands a lot with soap and water (its actually better than those gels at getting rid of stuff) and avoid touching your eyes and nose....
ew...and I had a college prof who always had nose bleeds...but he would just keep on teaching while containing it..
lmao gwen, it's as if you knew that i'm putting the air from my dryer vent into the house right now rather than outside to help humidify! seriously!
My sister is a teacher, shes really human.
93 is a long life... you have some good genes to look forward to there, aussie
lol Gwen..is that what you do, Feather?
ewwwwww
btw, does anyone here have a vidoe link so I can see the Obama Inauguration ?? I missed it, and all I can find by looking is his speech, which was great, but I wanna see him being Sworn In !!!!!
gwen -- could you please email me about all this book stuff? My address is at the end of my profile
eeeewwwww krista
she was sooo close! the whole house smells like laundry. it makes it dusty faster, but sure helps the humidity.
have you tried youtube, aussie?
Oh heck yeah kje, She was my Gramma's youngest Sister......
aussie, go to cnn.com
Hey Jili !
okay, jillibus, emaling you now . . .
oops, Jilli I mean....
thanks, gwen
Ah, thanks both !
brb......
the chog is going too fast - making me dizzy
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VjnygQ0 2aW4
i want some tea but dont want to miss anything
go ahead krista... we will all wait for you to get back
mmm... tea. i already had my green tea. good stuff
maybe... or maybe we will wait til you leave and then talk about you... never know : )
madi, my daughter was born in 95, too
(quick, what was that dirty secret about krista you were going to tell me kje? fast before she comes back!)
yeah, you all will let me have the last word for 15 min so i feel stupid
get outta my head kje!
lol
krista wears her undies backwards
if that's all you can dig up, I'm doing well...
silly kje
I was put on the spot!!!! LOL
lol!
i thought it was that she didn't wear socks with tennis shoes. diirrrrrttyyyyyy
as long as undies are not thong, krista is prolly doing alright... LOL!
ok..you are both here...why WEED? i KNOW there has to be a great story...
in my profile
LOLOL red - ouch
ew to thought of me in thong..
red, i was thinking the same thing, but didn't wanna say that!
Hello all. I finally watched the episode of "24" from Monday.
kje....you started the undies discussion!!!
Hi Scrabbler.
that IS dirty Madi..lol
weed? because she is a pot head... and has one tattooed on her heinie
hi scrabs! enjoy it?
*rolls eyes at kje* am not!
and do not!
it's ok to admit, feather... no cops here :)
she says she doesn't inhale... riiiiight! the real reason she won't vent the dryer putside is b/c she doesn't want the feds to get a whiff of the weed on her clothes
Yes, although every season with "24" I say, "This is all totally implausible!". Yet I get sucked into the drama.
ancient etruscan pot tattoo?
*stick tongue out in general*
she wears tennis socks with her Blahniks
ooo - good one jilli
this was supposed to be make up stuff about krista time, not me!
feather can afford blahniks on a teacher salary????
Hi everyone
I think jilli was referring to krista
Hi Scrabs...how were the kids today?
umm, i think that's a shoe, right? i only know this from sex and the city!
hi lbd
Weed story not juicy enough...i think that's a cover for the real one kje let slip...
yes, krista of the no-socks with tennis shoes
weed can afford blahniks cuz of the weed she sells
oh not following the conversation too well....
*hangs head in female shame at weed's failings in the shoe department*
SO many sick kids!! I saw 7 at the Children's Hospital this AM--asthma, pneumonia, bronchiolitis...
anyone have the ot5, 10 that isn't the water animal?
hi kje. how was the date?
i like the maxine today, dawgie. i saw a maxine calendar at sam's the other day
i am more the Cobbie Cuddlers type, Jilli, lol
yep krista... I cannot tell a lie... come on! why else would someone be called weed!
abetter, change the last vowel to another one.
change the vowel
ot + black sticky stuff
change the last vowel julie
Change the last vowel for another ot5
kje, i think i bought one new pair of shoes in september. before that, maybe a pair of sneaks in the summer. before that, i don't remember.
good, lbd
is that even a word!? Thanks guys!
hi Dawg!
date? date? tell tell!
is enable even a dictionary?
hi krista
yes kj, tell us please
julie, clickon the ? beside the word for the meaning, if any
do chickens have lips?
Date??? That's enough to take me out of lurk mode!
BR - your icon makes me laugh every time it flies by
dorens, enable is more like a book of words, not necessarily with definitions
is a four pound robin fat
my baby niece is sick with some kind of resp infection..thought of all your hospitalized kids...i'm sure it's nothing, but she is so little
hmpf. a variant of attar.
is the pope jewish?
chickens dont hae lips
yes and yes
t's and p's for you neice, krista. and all the other littles who are sick
oh, thanks for clarification lbd... but still, are they really words? some of them........
chickens must have lips!
i thought the pope is catholic and priests are jewish
attar is perfume. being a word made up of common letters it shows up in grid a lot, as does the ot5 variation
are piecosts too expensive
priests are jewsih - LOLOLOL
what are you smoking, babrab?
does a bear crap in a port-a-potty?
are henweighs on diets?
hi dorens, hi jellen..didnt see you come in...really going for a tea now..try not to bad mouth me too much...thanks, lbd
but somehow i knew the word attar... roses or something
We love you, Krista!
stop BR!!!!!!
they wont fall for that one, BR
hi krista and bye
hello
Thanks for telling me where to find the video's... I have now seen him Sworn In, and I am glad it has happened !
strange questions tonight
hi harp

ppssttt - krista smells and her mother dresses her funny
hi harp
lol, go for it dorens!
yay aussie!
AAAUUUSSSIIIEEE!!! it's been forever!!!
bfn krista :D
llllllbbb dddddddddddddddddddddddd !!
Aussie -- did you see both the swearings-in? There was a corrected one later
aussie, any news on your sister?
there was jilli? when was that?
Not yet Scrabs..... I wish O had more to tell you, but she is still in the "I can't talk to her" phase with me....
the second one happened yesterday on the sly, feather
wednesday weed - so that it could never be questioned whether it was legal or not
Yeah, I did !
She is in a black place and needs to sort out her feelings. Give her time.
ohhh, interesting!
to7 please? yes, he was sworn in wednesday privately in the white house... roberts did it without the bible, just to be sure no one can say it didn't count
hardly on the sly, when the photographers and TV people were there
to 7 heavy weight miniature
it was in the map room
I am giving her all the time in the world Scrabs..... It just pretty much hurts so because we have always been so close, and now she wont talk to me....
no tv. there were still photos tho.
and no 1.8 million people either (yes, there was tv.. i saw it this morning - at least I thought i did)
chickens dont have lips, i had chickens as a kid. no lips.
Maybe she is ashamed and feels that she let you and others down. Just send loving messages to her. She needs to get to a better place in her head.
I saw it on TV, not still
LOL red - kinda slow there kiddo!
thanks babrab
I saw the stills for the 2nd swearing in, and the video for the 1st one..... gave me goosebumps.... Talk about being a part of history....
I'm watching the daily show and Colbert report...distracted...
Aussie it was a very special day. i wont forget it.
I am too, red!!
the kids and hubby and i saw him live in Manassas, Va. It was fabulous!
need refill - brb
they are funny so far scrabbs, dont you think...?
Scrabs, I sent her a loving text message...... response : Its too hard, dont text me, unless you want to be at my funeral, please stop texting. (I only texted her once !
Oh, I guess it was still -- just replayed on the local TV news
i'm reading about it: http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/01/22 /obama.henry/index.html
hubby shook hands with him when he was in Bllings last May.
WOW lbd !
oooo, that is really cool, lb. I wish we could have gotten that close.
Aussie, she is in that dark tunnel, having constricted thoughts, and she can only think of her pain, her psychache.
there was fundraising party for him three doors down from our rental house in martha's vineyard in 07. Couldn't get tickets tho)
They're calling the original goofed swearing-in "The Oaf of Office"
he said he was late for another campaign thing but stopped and called some folks over and said hi, shook everyones hand and waved goodbye.
lol jilli
I know Scrabs, thats why I took no notice of it..... It did hurt, but she is not herself, so I am taking no notice....
we are going to try and take a white house tour now that he is president. It is only 2 hrs away from us.
I met Obama in NH before he was the democratic nominee, and I though he was great, but at the time it looked like Hillary was going to bethe one then.
ke6 anyone?
WOW red !! you guys are so lucky.....
I would love to meet him. He is so inspiring.
It's amazing how so many people really seem to love that guy
freworks
hi, peeps! should i start this one now?
well, i think Hillary got a better deal. sec of state and all the right contacts.
He did campaign for a long time, so a lot of people could meet and greet.
Yay, Dorens!!!
Yes dc its not hard at all.
congrats, dorens!!!
there are two bdg... different last vowel in them
He just seems so.... down-to-earth, but he is switched on with it !
ke6 - muscle damage releases them in your body
coolio, red
Yipeee Dorens!
and dawg, yes, Hillary as sec'y of state is a great choice
first one gwen is ke + number + vowel. second one is ke + sound
the second (they're both ke6/30) is ke + I don't like your **** of voice)
yahoo Doren
whoooooo hoooooo DORENS!!!
I have to say it is amazing his charisma, but I think most of us are holding our breath a little bit too.
i'm not sure how i feel about her being sec of state yet.
so, dc...didja get me a newspaper?
for various reasons red.. I want him to stay alive!

Dorens, my sister tried to end her life....

What was that program with her as a secretary...
g'night, krista
Colbert cracks me up!
Hello and good by to those leaving. Not a big puzzle but quite puzzling to me today. Maybe the fog outside has gotten inside my head more than I want to admit.
I do, julie -- what do you need?
Ann Sothern, died March 15th 2001
no, just saying good bye to the raft of people leaving at same time :)
Hi stidgmere
ok, jili. I'll try to be less confused this time, lol. I need the gl5, 14.
hello stidgmere
I get to see Colbert at 12:30 am PT
Krista, Private Secretary was it ??
thanks, aussie
Hello Aussieme again!It has been awhile&I'm so sorry to hear about your sister! I hope that she is able to find happiness again. I wish all the luck in the world!
Hi, stidgmere
stidgmere!!! Happy to see you!
Hi, Stidgmere......
Yes, Aussie! that was it. I liked that.
You are welcome Jilli....
How is your weather up north. Is it cold fog like here in the South?
stidgmere, bon soir!
Thank you Min.....
How is StidMama today, Stidgmere?
I'm glad I got the right one then Krista...
Exactly, stidgmere -- and colder predicted
here around DC it hit low 40s today, tomorrow supposed to be 50s, then back below freezing for the weekend
ok, i have to go. made it to 28, tho with lots of help from you all.
Stidmama is better. She was able to get to her tutoring this afternoon and didn't sound so shakey when we talked this afternoon. She wanted to go to class tonight.
Tell Stidmama that I said hello.
Night, Julie..you'll be back...you can't escape now...
glad to hear, stidgmere
They are talking snow Saturday night for our area, Jillie--be sure to keep your snowshovel handy.
wtg julie (time to go pro?)
nice to've met you julie, hopefully see you round
my first try, so no pro yet!
thx all. krista is right, I'll be back.
boo hiss, gmere!
Glad to hear it, Stidgmere.
Yes, Scrabbler, I'll give her your regards. Health is such a blessing and when it falters it is really hard!
weather up here is cold...another front moving in from Canada. Tell Stidmama that class can wait, she must be better before she can go out!
Bye, julie
whoooo hooooo Julie!
**taking snow shovels from Jilli ans stidgmere, so's I can shvel for them !!**
julie, I went pro right away to get my flag and icon and stuff
ibdawger, you are right about class waiting but Stidmama sticks out her lower lip and does as she pleases. What a kid.
do I have to submit anything, or does it just know my score?
*shovel
i went pro after a week
aw, thanks, aussie!!!
julie, it Knows All
Aussieme, thanks for the shoveling help! I have to shovel some words and get the curry off the stove. We needed a warming dish tonight.
i went pro after only a few days
I ent pro the day I joined !!
also, does it tell you the answers at some point?
your'e welcome Jilli !
All scores must be submitted to Feather, and she will grade it.
what are we going to have to do to her, stidgmere? tie her up or take away her keys?
I went pro the day I found Babble.
haha, scrabbler!
don't listen to Scrab, julie
lol, A+ for everyone! except trolls, they get Fs
Scrabbler, you are a little naughty. Correct your own work and let Feather humidify her house.
You're welcome too Stidgmere, anything to help you all out of the snow !
you know you've been playing too long when you can monkey K words w/out looking at the grid
I am Silly Scrabbler!
oooh, stidgmere's been lurking! that conversation was a while ago!
LOL Feather !!
lol, dc!
Oh My Yes Seain !!!!!
I have no idea how to corral stidmama. She's at the mercy of her own devices now.
so a person who makes cr5s is not a cr7? enable, I shake my tiny fist of fury at thee!
julie..it will keep your score..u can see the answers tomorrow for today's grid
100% with on that one, dan!
Yes, but I needed to get to work on the puzzle. When one is as slow as I am, every strategy must be employed!
join the fist-shaking club, dan2
Hey Dan2 !
hiya aussie and all newly joined
it won't take effen, oh wait, it's effin, isn't it LOL

regis, at + what you use for shelter when you camp out
that does not work
Eddie25, I only WISH I could look like Diane Lane and have all of her money! Thank you for the compliment!
Krista, not sure if I'd rather be without heat, without water, or without electric... though I guess electric would end up meaning heat too so that's last on the list!
at6 - add portable camping shelter, yes
well, maybe without chocolate is last
i've lived w/out runnin water, and i've lived w/out electriticy. i'll sacrifice the electricity every time, so lon as i can have progane or methane for cooking and hot water
regis, make sure you've got the double T

eventually they might notice, but then I'll just tell them straight out that it didn't seem like a good idea to mix work and social
I've thought about dropping 1 or 2 but was afraid they'd be notified.
gonna try that ke later....can't wrap my brain around it
sorry to hear you were not well. jin.
good one hurshy!
Cute Hursh
Hey DC & Pink!
happy rest of today to everyone
good night

Goodbye regis!I will see you tomorrow in the chat log
bye regis
does the TE 6/18 relate to the TE 5/10 before it?

my global CEO is on, and it just seems too icky to have her able to see my pictures, and my status updates
Hi Min!
g'night, regis, sleep well
Night Regis.
it was so cute, a coworker who's originally from Chad and France asked if Tom and i filed joint taxes.
her comprehension of the law was lacking on that front. i explained it to her

more TE, jindigo
hi, kje
I never chat with folks on facebook (not opposed to it, just haven't yet) but I just didn't like having to censor myself so much when thinking about what I posted there and what I commented on... I'm still careful, but no longer paranoid
LOL herin... ummm - no S in the freakin' grid!
te 6/18: rhymes with how I feel after getting over a cold Jindigo.
he is actually asking me (and hubby) what to do about his clogged toilet, lol! he is pretty accessible to me when i need him so it's ok for now
terrific isn't in the grid ;(
L6?
Depends if its a substance or if its the weather Krista
arg .. dumd it down more please Min
goodness gracious, krista
but how interesting not to know what to do with a clogged toilet!

ff
It was the Japanese clog that did it

pt = past tense
http://www.naturespath.com/envirokidz/ home this is them
past tense, mkg
to 5/10:one who to 4/4 mkg (one who carries things)
Past Tense
oh YES...have seen those in our organic food co-op catalog

LOL
Eek! Just halved my ironing pile since my own daughter left home, don't want yours!
Ironing! **faints at thought**
*Hands Krista smelling salts and a large gin*
what's ironing? lol never even think about it
**lifts head and opens a cautious eye**
The gin's the your left, Krista.
I have thrown clothes out rather than iron them. I do use a steam thingy sometimes.
Well since we just had a round of FW's I will go to bed
Goodnight to my fellow babblers!I'll see you tomorrow
bye min
Heck, you're worse than my Mum. At least she hangs on to the clothes and irons them about 6 years later.
MM...good gin, thanks...Night night Min..take care
'Night Min.
i'm missing a TE something, i think from upper left T
TE 4,4,4,4,5,4,5,6
found it!
te4/10 - like 44.10 'posh person'?
brb
thats funny, jac..i have done that..i consider getting rid of them a step up..at least I'm not hanging onto the fantasy of getting around to it, lol
But my Mum DOES get around to it.... eventually.
That fact that she once gave me back a blouse, 6 years after I was married and when it was well out of fashion has nothing to do with it. LOL
that's cute...wow, I can remember my mom standing for an entire day ironing...
the towels had made a tight ball in the dryer. fixed it, hopefully they'll be dry soon
My ironing pile used to take about 2+ hours at one stretch. Now it's half the time.
were you hearing twumping noises, seain?
I usually catch up on SKY+'d stuff on TV whilst ironing, thereby 'killing two birds with one stone'.
firewords!!!
yes, krista
wtg dc
TV would help...but not enough...
I know that noise, Seain.
YAY! Woot woot for Seain
Well done on fireworks, Seain.
thanks, yall
i meant to say thwumping..but u knew what i meant
Dancing music is quite good to iron to, Krista. You can dance about and exercise whilst ironing.
i agree with jacula on that one, helps make the ironing a workout
one day thwump will be in grid...if pf word is...
*stands firm* nope...you wont turn me into an ironer
if pf** can be why not thwump
thwump is what the drier does, twump is the sound Elmer Fudd makes when he expells wind, but thwump is the larger version of that.

exactly, jm
oh but a lightly crisp, well-pressed linen shirt is a joy!
lol, jac...good way to put it
I love well pressed linen for the 5 minutes it lasts lol
Whereas THWAARUMP! is theone your partner does after a rich meal accompanied by beer. That's the one that blows you out of bed. 8-/
i agree, it is...i guess it's because of lack of practice, but shirts with lots of buttons are more wrinkly when I'm done with them...ironing is an art
ew, Jac, lol
I did a lot of ironing as a child (it was my chore) and when my husband wanted his shirts ironed I told him to iron them himself
Ironing IS an art, and I admired the way my chief bridesmaid starched and pressed all the tiny pleats in the front of the bridesmaid dresses I designed and she made 2 of.
6
jm...may i ask u something?
sure what krista
Krista - the fact that you said, 'Ew!' means you have been the victim of one.
:) I've tried to get your attention several times..if you dont mind telling me (i realize it may be a long story and u are trying to finish grid)...why did your Gma in law meet kaiser wilhelm?
i'd love to read her story
jac..you are a wise woman...
Oh my husbands grdm was a Boston Brahmin her father was the youngest governor of Mass and from a long line of govenors of Mass
She went on the "tour" of Europe that was the thing to do rather than college for womenof her time and class
I would, too, jmc. I held an Iron Cross in my hand the other day, a family secret a friend of my daughter had. It was given in the Prussian war by Kaiser Wilhelm.
We even have a photo of her being one of the first commerical passengers on a plane in Paris
I love history, and personal stories like this just give me goosebumps.
Was that the 'tour of Europe' at the time of Dickens' 'Little Dorrit'?
When she was in germany she was asked to be presented to the Kaiser. SHe was part of a coming out of about 20 women from France and England and Germany and then she was from the US
more recent than Dickens
It must be wonderful to have those photos, and those stories.
how nifty, jmc!
She practiced her curtsy at several classes and then the day of the dress rehersal something terrible happened
I think 'the tour of Europe' lasted well into the 1920s.
terrible?
Heck, what, jmc, did she catch her heel in the hem of her dress?
her train was one inch too long so she wasn't going to be allowed to be presented to the Kaiser
hey measured the trains??
!!!
Out came the scissors?
So the AMerican Ambassador took her to a seamtress who cut through the silk roses and cut and sewed the train!
Her presentation took about 5 minutes total after all of that
So, they really did measure the trains? What kind of pomposity was that?
if you ever want to share the story she wrote, we'd love to see it
I ran to the photo the first time I read that story to look at it.
Hi everyone :-)
Was the Kaiser really that self-important, or what it his puffed-up minions?
Hi Blue.
hi B&A!
Actually the martinette who was training them claimed it was too long and then they measured it
hi blue
jmc - I echo Krista's sentiments about reading the story.
the other intersting fact was that the english wore their trains from their shoulders and teh rench from their waists and the American could do what ever they wanted lol
I will see if Ican find a way to post the story she wrote
that would be lovely, thanks

hello
32 to go
i need to go eat my Cocoa Pebbles and watch some bad tv...thanks for great evening, all
hi harp
hi harp
I can't see the photo in close-up on here, jmc, but your hubby's grandmother looks like our Queen Mary (UK) in the pic.
bye krista
The queen that is, not the liner named after her.
Hi Harp.
'Bye Krista.
this rocks, and i dedictae this viewing to Haz and Fmitch: http://tinyurl.com/ahxxn6 it's youtube i know yall will love
I think it is the erect way they hold themselves. If I post the story I will post a larger copy of the picture too
Thanks for sharing that, jm!
g'night krista!
Thanks jmc, that would be much appreciated.
watching video first
LOL, seain! That is just like us.
4
isn't it though! :D
go6?
LOL!!! And did you noticed that the very first comment proved their point!
yep, krista
DCS - I'll make sure Haz and FM see that.
ty, jacula :)
i've go6 ov4 a cold
go6 = the Southern (?) US way of saying 'obtained'.
i'm putting the link in my profile
thanks
jacula, US way of saying it, we kepth the old way here
love the video dc
I'll e-mail it to them, along with your post on here, dcs.
glad yall like it. it popped up in Linguaphiles on LiveJournal, and i instantly thought of everyone here :)
I'm up so late because I've been finishing off a local Christmas quiz, about 200 questions long, as my Mum was nagging me to finish it to be handed in a week early.
can't imagine why lol
Didn't finish all of the questions.
lol jacula

Here's one I didn't answer. Can you help? 'Which 3-word title is faster to say than its abbreviation?'
hm...
Henry the Fifth
Possibly, dcs. I'll write that down. Thanks.
no... comen brain, you and me together...
something with a W in it, i imagine
The other7 are lines from Christmas songs.
Here are the lines from the songs: 'And who would rock the cradle'. 'Come and see the wondrous light', 'A Saviour whi Chirst the Lord'. 'Sages who a star has guided'.'And heaven and angels sing','Ox and angler their owner know', 'He is more than near us', 'Open our eyes, look at the skies' (No it's not Queen!'.
Maybe, Harp. Thinking caps on!
1
good heavens jac, sounds difficult
enters chat..completely lost in the discussion
I can't think of any abbreviations for Christmas Carols
Hi ruru, I was trying to get the last 8 answers to the 300 q quiz I have to complete before Saturday.
hi ruru
hi jm
fireworks
ohhhhh
Harp - Ray's quizzes are NEVER simple. Though I often correct his missquotes in them, as I have in this one. LOL.
yayayay
jm
wtg
Well done, jmc.
would the abbreviation question have a Christmas related answer?
so what is one of the unanswered questions
200 q quiz, I meant, not 300. I could blame the typing errors on me having popped all the keys off my keyboard to clean it earlier, but I'd be fibbing.
I did pop all the keys off, but they're all back in the right place, so any error is my own.
(jac fesses up)
Harp - I suppose so, since it's a Christmas quiz.
I can't think of any xmas abbreviation
ruru - q's are at 10.41 and 10.45 on here.
Ah, just checked the quiz and the abbreviation one was under the title 'Non-Christmas questions'.
sorry jac. I won't be of much help.. not particularly religious nor am I fond of Christmas
actually pretty agnostic
I went to a Church school AND was in the choir, plus my late Dad was a head choirboy and I have his old sogbook. Those song lines not only do popular British carols and later pop songs for Xmas, but also cover obscure USA church songs.
and heaven and angels sing is from Joy to the World
sogbook? songbook.
mmmmm.. catholic?
verse 3 i think
Thanks for that, dcs.
sogbook would be a bit wet no?
Writes it in.
the others i recognize not
on that note, i'm off to bed, g'night jacula and ruru
It would, ruru.
you must have been a boy scout DC
Who me? No High CofE. Once.
no, ruru, i ran screaming from the intro to scouting meeting in gred 2 - i saw them as commie youth group whose only purpose was to impose conformity - anathema to me even then
..me too.. dinner is up and I am pretty darn famished
grade, not gred
(you radical ...dc// lol)
lol, anyhow, good night :) be well, all, and happy babbling. Jac, good luck with the quiz
I dont' care for their anti-gay sentiments.. I won't support anything locally for the boy scouts
boy scouts are paramilitary and so not commie I was so happy when my son dropped out
or nationally for that matter..
{poof} yeah, that wasn't an issue yet for me back then. {poof for real}
or even regionally..
I felt the same about CofE. As for the Catholic church, I saw them abandon my friend's Mum after she tried to kill herself whilst suffering from post-natal depression. Not only was it 'a mortal sin' but she didn't stump up the £5 a week the priest had come to collect (and that was a week's grocery money in the 70s).
hey we're bush-less over here now....
I heard you'd been bikini-waxed, harp. However, Obama's swearer inner got the words wrong and so he had to swear in again.
i know jac, it's a new American Tradition now, just like apple pie and hip hop
hi all! in to finsh!
hi pav
LOL, Harp.
Hi Pav. Can we help?
the entire county has had a giant bikini wax!
I'm just checking lickety's list now ..I only have 39 to go...I'll start screaming in about 45mins though...
but thanks Jac...nice to have friends around...
Harp, it's funny how peope say 'as American as apple pie' because it's also a traditional dish here in UK, and in France.
PAv - if you were a female in the UK, you'd have been screaming by now, if what Harp just said is true. *grins*
we should say it's as American as jazz and baseball
Maybe we'll book you in for a b,s & c?
um, do i want to know what that is?
back, sack & crack wax, jane.
You didn't want to know that, did you?
lol
too much informatin
i guess the chat is for adults only for the moment...I'll lurk if you don't mind...
we'll clean it up, pac
pav
LOL. I didn't know what to get my Beloved for his 40th b/day last week. I said yesterday, that maybe I should have booked him in for a surprise waxing session. He didn't look to happy.
Sorry, Pav.
so do we know the abbreviation answer yet?
what 3 word title is faster to say than it's abbreviation?
what was the question,,,and mind you, havn't the time to backtrack through adult sweim...
no pav you need to get to work! how many left?
Nope, Jane. Pav - this is a quiz question I've got. What 3-letter ttle takes longer to say than its abbreviation?
Mdm
oh, 3 letter or 3 word?
Sorry, meant is faster to say than its abbreviation.
34 left for me...
but 3 lttr title or 3-word title?
What 3-word title is faster to say than its abbreviation?
Sorry, had to keep running between office and kitchen table (where quiz paper is) to check.
Mademmoisell et monsiers...
M&M's
isn't there a tv show called World of Wrestling or something?
WOW
World of Warcraft, Harp but that takes longer to say than WOW.
PAv - is that what the candy (sweets) M&Ms stands for? If so, you could be right.
sorry I keep drifting out so will say good night all
I think they are naamed for the original makers daughs, but I'm not thinking candy just now...
No, it's not faster to say than the abbreviation.
29 left :)
'Night jmc.
but if you count the syllables---world of warcraft is 4
and double u oh double u is 7
Let's get the Babble grid finished first (I'm done, btw). Then we can work out what abbreviation is quicker to say than the 3-word title.
i'm done too
but i need to close up and go home
Harp - I don't think our local quizmaster is that devious.
i checked in after a late meeting, at the office, and don't plan to turn the thing on when i get home
think i'll just go home now
bbl
It would help if I didn't keep getting it the wrong way around - the title is quicker to say than the abbreviation.
Okay, Harp. See you later. x
24
go pav
Need any help yet, PAV, or are you like me and fiercely independent until pushed?
20
FIERCELY indep
LOL. Keep on keeping on then.
Im at the p's with 19 left
Well stop being a pr4, don't pr7 on. You can do it! *grins*
Missing an L, 5 letters. Any hints?
lo5.10 or lo5.16.

hi all!!!
Hi Volley

12
lo 5/10... looks like beginning of what people play weekly to win a lot of money
howdy jac!
If you are tired once the grid is finished, you'll just exhale and go pf4.11.
Anyone have a clue for bottom-right E?
Thanks, Volleymom. Got it. 100%!
rElise - kind of listless, foppish, sterile.
yw ns ef 6/36 ef + fe 4/7
rElise -- ef6 -- limp-wristed
A male with to many feminine chracterstics, maybe?
thanks guys :)
*too many
Hi, Jilli.
hugs jili
that ef6 really means "lacking in wholesome vigor; degenerate; decadent"
hi all
I said that, jilli, LOL
It's just that most people think of it was 'limp-wristed' as you described it, these days.
it could describe ME, jac!
7
Me, too, at times, Jilli/:-(
I could swear I keyed some of these simple ones in last night...hmmmm?
8
5
Where's the fun in being wholesome after 50?
gogogo pav
PAV - that happens to me, too, but sometimes it's the result of typing errors.
1 left the to7...hmmmm
A small flute, PAV.
looks like a little French sound, lol
ah...them's the ones! tyvm...now about the three word title that takes longer to say tehn the abbrev...
or is it abbrev longer than the three word title...
You tell me, PAV, it has me stumped!
no fair, jaqc -- I thought you knew the answer
It was the 3-word title that is quicker to say than the abbreviation.
No, Jilli - I have 8 questions left to get in our local Christmas quiz and that was one of them.
I give up
Jili - you didn't even TRY!
maybe it's a Brit thing?
I've been thinking, jac
Possibly, but you never know with our local quizmaster.
Thought I heard a noise, Jilli! *grins*
title -- like an honorific?
*Passes can of WD40 to Jilli*
Just been lurking but wondering if it could be w.w.w.? And hello all.
oh, well oiled here, with vodka and wine
Hey Jandy, thanks for the input, but www is faster to say than world wide web.
hi jandy
I'll let ou all know what the answer is when I find out in about a month's time!
www is 8 syllables, world wide web is 3
It's a very alliterated group we have here, isn't it! I think www has more syllables.... that was my vague theory
Like I said, neither quiz master, nor his son (who goes on web to find the questionss but then mistypes them' are that deep.
Grin. Will wait with interest to heaer the outcome!
I think Jilli could be correct...esp if it's a quiz about modern day stuff...
well, stick www in your memory bank, jac -- I'm with jandy
If the answer is a syllable one, I'll eat my nearesrt piece of food. (Ha! Ha! You thought I was going to say 'hat', didn't you?)
BTW M&M's are named for Mars and Murrie...Murrie founded Hershey's and Mars bought him out to be the sole maker of M&M's
That's interesting, PAV. Didn't know that.
so that's where Mars Bars came from too?
Back to the quiz, and this is an answer I DO know... what were the first frisbees?
pie plates?
competing choclatiers..Hershey's and Mars...the first frisbees...not cow dungs?
I think I used to know...
or was it elephant's
lol, pav!
trash can lids...
ok, come on, jac
jilli is correct....
not politically, much
Im only good...er, I used to be only good at American history..and not the societal questions...more of war history and such...now there's toooo many number s stored in my head's files
and I'm not good at purging as any tour of my spare bedroom will attest...
I must have a paper purge in my "office"
maybe some day
and I've not given up hope of donating my unwanted household items to the local women's shelter as was suggested last month...and I DO havea shredder unpacked in my spare room..bought it last January on sale even!
I am guessing 177
I don't even have a shredder :(
220
152 might be nice, depending on the language and the presence of esses
I finally bought a shredder last year from Staples... I love having one
true jili
I'd send you mine Jilli, but then where/how would I balance the empty box to hold shredded materials that's sitting on top of it?
dee -- what kind did you get?
lol, pav!
a Staples brand... not the cheapest, right in the middle
I get confused -- cross cut, this and that...
as is mine...we must of hit the same sale!
I agree; I shopped by price and by ease of use... didn't want a lot of buttons to push
