andree, big, beautiful motorcycles, there's only one thing more thrilling between your knees :)
probably terrified you will break something and end up back in hospital mrp
just do it, mrp.
oooooooh, bad granny.......
Mr Pres that is because you are a bit more fragile then the rest of us and I would not at all suggest motorbike with passenger car or a three wheeler. :p
the reason i asked was my son is doing a run to melbourne on a bicycle in march
are you talking about a horse, rose????? :D
LOL jilli...of course, not
lol jilli
or a sack of peanuts as you're shelling them...
and she isn't talking about anything that takes D batteries either!
PRESSIE :D
why, whatever do you mean, you people?
don't need that thing, thanx, have enough trouble keeping up with himself, so to speak
isn't that the truth granny... must be the motorbike!
ROFL!!!!!
Rose you have to remember that I have to see you some time in the future and you don't want me to crack up at you right :D
crack up!.... hmmmm
i see your reference to robbie burns jilli, he was my dads favourite
oh boy I give up at this one
Is/was your dad a Scot, andree?
*herin is broken*
awww, herin!
he sure was jilli
och aye, andree
cracked up ? herin
I am around roll players I am sure I'll unbrake soon
there, there, herin. will lunch at tgi's fix it? hopefully ( not next week) but the week after.
Jilli, we were at a Robert Burns supper tonight, complete with a piper, music, harp and fiddle, and a lot of Burns poetry.
how cool nef
YEs and I have a discount thingie I think
what fun, nef -- any Haggis?
OH that will depend on wether I start classes
whoot! will call you next weekend and confirm, brb, going to write it in my diary.
st7x2
hi nef :)
They piped in the haggis, but not many ate of it.
mrp, are we going to get clues?
I have my Grans vinyl of Scottish bag pipes that used to drive my neighbours crazy
yes jilli... the boy is being difficult tonight... will go slap him about for a bit! brb
Just jumping in for a bit before I turn into a pumpkin - need the center bottom "e" for NBT - any clues?
Nef have you had hagis
hi birdeee
ee6 = more spooky
i don't mind hagis once in a blue moon
that E is the most spooky
hi jilli - listening to a reading of Burns poetry on our local public radio station
Never had it would maybe try it
hi birdee
I bought my hubby bagpipes for our first Christmas. In 34 years he still hasn't learned to play them (and now thanks to MS, he won't ever learn to. But he has bragged about them and took lessons for several years....)
Wow mist be the night for Mr Burns
thanks all I though I had put that in - Hi andree
I've had haggis -- a long time ago -- not bad, sort of like sausage
hi birdee :))
That is cute Nef
hi mrp
I hate bag pipes
isn't haggis like sausage with a lot of oatmeal inside?
my brother went to a haggis loving school... we had to have it every year on special occassions
herin, it's Burns's 250th birthday
I think so, birdeee
and in year 12, he was honoured with carrying the haggis during the main ceremony!
151 to go and still the y eludes me...taking joey for his wlk then hopefully something y'ish will pop out
I used to play the Scottish Highland Bands vinyl to drive my neighbours nuts when they were playing their stupid bogan music to loud
I did read your bio Jill
pav, the Y is a Jewish gossip
pav matchmaker matchmaker, make me a match"
I had haggis last year and just didn't feel brave enough to try again tonight. We have several Scottish friends and only about 4 or 5 ate it tonight
http://www.robertburns.org/
pav most of the y's are jewish
one is eludng me
The worst thing is I had heard of Burns but couldn't think of what he had written till i went to that site
like barbara streisand
but then again, my brother went to Scot's College... need say no more
I only have 2 of the Ys
Mr Pres Melbourne of Sydney?
or Sydney even
nighty nite all
He went to Bathurst... boarding school.
G'night, Birdeee
nite birdee!!
night birdeee
off to turn into pumpkin
Ok the boys from Scott ( 2 T's) are obnoxious little snots but the caretakers cottage is pretty
most high school boys are as you describe herin but they soon grow into nice young men
andree... is that pedantic?
When that comes to the major Blue ribbon schools they don't really change
Well, I'm about done finding words for now (that's why I'm chatting); but it's time for me to sleep. Good night, All!
i disagree
bye nef
night nef!
G'night, Nef
Andree this is just the school boys that I knew off

Night Nef

weather is much nicer in June, mrp
It's Sunday in Los Angeles, and today I've lived in the US for 48 years ... yay me!!
october is still not really cold is it
not usually, but it can be that far north, andree
nice Mr P
glad to have you, christine!
And the wet season here starts in October, so it can be rainy and foggy.
hi christine
OH I was just reading in the paper they are talking about making Principles of schools ''lunch box'' police
Yay, Christine!
pardon, herin?
Thats right. There is an article on banning ''bad'' food from lunch boxes
oy gevalt! what IS the world coming to
http://tinyurl.com/ccaedr this is the article
Thank you ... sometimes I miss London, then I ask myself "where is it 84 degrees in January".
at7/28 please
at 7 == opposition: ****st*nce
At & 28 meaning: the congenital absence, or the pathological closure, of an opening, passage, or cavity.
Hi, BabbleRabble
HI Babs
DC you there?
yes i am, and tom just gave me the at from the definition. yay for nurses!
ok
Sciene I was going to say its bad enough at schools that some have banned nuts
peanuts are disallowed at many schools here. peanut allergies, almost unknown when i was small, arer mapant today, i think in part with the influx of Northerners here
andree... I was thinking about taking Maddie with me
mmmmph that makes me not happy
dcs, I watched a doco on peanut allergies... parents of some schools have to sign a waiver that they do no feed their children peanut products at home!!
that would be a great trip for her
that's just asinine, mrp
one of the kids on our street is deadly allergic... my kids have to wash their teeth, have a shower and wear fresh clothes to go to her hous
When I was working in childcare we had a child in care and he was allergic to a lot of things. His parents had a list on the wall of what he couldn't have but they didn't mind as every day was an adventure
here in the SE US, we just don't feed peanuts to kids before their 3rd birthday
mutters something about darwinsim
they fed us peanut soup in school - in the lunch line
not daily, but on occasion
we are advised not to feed eggs and nuts to our kids.
why this sudden recent appearance of peanut allergies?
herin my grandaughter has a peanut allergy, we all carry an epipen , she is only 5 and starting school next week, would not want her to die because someone gave her a peanut butter sandwich
infern, that was insensitive
AND so what. I am sick of a minority telling a majority what they can and can't give their own children
when YOU have children, get back to us
who really knows, jill. it has been a sudden increase in nut allergies over the last decade
parents of these children are only asking no peanuts to school
and mostly in anglo areas
so strange
unfortunately it's becoming more of a majority; we've a number of kids w/peanut allergies at our school.
WHen I HAVE CHILDREN I dont want children so there
then don't get back to us!
my nephew's class this year has 15 peanut-allergic students, and that's out of 30 kids.
my job is to protect those kids.
i agree jilli, cannot understand it especially as there are no allergies in our family history
wow, dc
Are you tellling me that when that person goes into the work force then the entire office shouldn't eat peanuts?
often by that time they have grown out of the allergy or are wise enough and old enough to look out for themselves
but when they are as young as my grandaughter its adults that have to be on a watch
yes, what andree said
Oh and thanks for telling me that wonderful line ''when i have kids'' THAT is insensitive
i've a friend near my age, we can have peanuts in our food, and eat peanuts around him, but no peanut butter nor peanut oil
I notice a warning on a package of cookies, that they were made in an establishment where other products contained eggs and/or peanuts ... scary that there's so much the kids should avoid. Fortunately, at 72 I'm old enough to eat cookies.
infern, I don't know your fertility/wishes for your future... so back up
yes, the allergy warnings amaze me
Herin ... my daughter says she doesn't have kids because she has enough trouble watching out for her husband
morning all
phantom -- pentacle
hi sprite!
hi sprite!
morning, sprite :) *hug*
even m &m's have a warning, i guess because they make peanut m&m's too so i only buy smarties for the kids
hey sprite!
hi sprite
lol christine
hi sprite
my brother married his wife with the agreement that they wouldn't have kids... ha! they have a boy now. darwinism
o gawd, just saw the long list of re words :(
yay jilli, leave it to you to know a poem with the beautiful word sonsie in it :D
DD told her husband before the marriage, she's never wanted children ... five years later he's whining about not being fulfilled ... just what she needs two kids
Screw you MR Pres that is their choice. I should not have kids due to medical issues that me and the b.f have. you are extremly rude and insensitive
I just said... I don't know your circumstances
oh help. My day started with a fight between our kids... now a fight on babble as well?
herin, don't worry about it ... lots of people don't have kids, and that should be only their decision.
herin you have misunderstood mrp, calm down
sprite, is all over yogo actually,,, infern has a bee in her bonnet. she thinks I am insensitive
anyway, I don't have my life to dedicate to this crap... on with my babble buddies!
seems like it sprite
so... how is today's grid?
onward and forward mrp
we are watching Bridge to Terabithia... boys are watching Pokemon! how appropriate!! LOL
i've found 105 in 45 min with lots of chatting
the grid is ok sprite! some weirdo words though... a learning curbe
i don't like it much and seem to be getting nowhere and now jilli says there are lots of re's yuk
i love that book, mrp
woot that is fast, seain. I could use a bit of speed today. Both because I have little time and because I felt particularly stupid yesterday.
lots of re's ...
yes, wonderful story that
curve even!
hm another learning curve? Eeks!
i have lars and the real girl to watch tonight
sprite! I still have those boys here! they are staying another night! eeek!
cool Andree! good evening ahead!
47 re words
yup that is what you get for being firm, mrP. Kids love that. Clear rules and lots of warmth, you will never get rid of them if you keep this up :P
and i watched the bucket list a couple of days ago, what an excellent movie
everyone deserves a good ye5.14 :)
bucket list! now I have to see that! :)
indeed sprite! they don't want to go home!!
don't know those movies. What kind of film are they?
Bucket list was good, i saw it a few weeks ago

I am going to have dinner at my sister's with my love and kids. I am to bring the potato salad :)
i agree jilli....if i didnt have to bid vacation time a year in advance :(
nice, sprite
which reminds me I should not put off peeling and cooking the potatoes for too long anymore or the salad won't be as good as it can be!
i already arranged for time off in Apr, Jun, and Oct
happy it all went well with your sis sprite :)
enjoy your dinner sprite its so nice to see you all getting together
me too :)
yay. dart!
wow pretty rose, rbud
hi rbud lovely rose
hi, rbud
well dcs! you have to meet up with me!
enable is totally nuts. Reslim not a word? All slimmers know it is a re word.
hi rbud -- I agree about the rose
too right, sprite :)
are all y's from same base? I have 3, need one more - have endings of 1st 2 vowels and a plural.
first one: ya 5/16
no rbud..last one is diff.
hi BR
hi BabbleRabble, happy to see you.
morning, babrab
hi babrab
thanks for the ya
at least this grid is friendlier than yesterday's. I have to be off for a bit, potatoes to peel and cook. Back soonish. Have fun all and no fighting while I am in the kitchen, kids!
until then, sprite
TY all - it's for my nickname, "rosebud" - shortened to rbud years ago.
bye sprite -- I have to go too -- bedtime. Well over halfway and NBT a while ago.
goodnight jilli sleep well take care see you next time
have fun sprite
Won't have much time tomorrow -- library work and shopping -- night akk
rest well, jill, g'night
that's "all"
happy babbling .... *poof*
gnite jilli! :)
i still wonder how i got on the Chesapeake Bay Foundation email list.
Should leave, but I keep thinking if I try again (and again) predator will be accepted
yep, it's oft like that, isn't it, christine :)
But, to prove I'm stronger than Babblr, I'm gone. Goodnight/goodmorning, all.Probably not babbling tomorrow as we're off to celebrate my anniversary in US (Ill copy the grid, and find words if the company lags).
sleep well, and congrats again, chistine :)
goodnight christine and happy anniversary enjoy your day
hi
hi there holly
hi, holly, welcome back
i have got 9 points so far lol
is everyone ok
rebel rebid
yes, but at about this time ,day or night, it tends to get quiet n the chog
sorry monkeys getting away from me
at this hour due to night time in north america and dinner time in NZ/AUS
Big O is on :)
i should find the Manga
i am back
yay the war of paradigm city!
rebel rebid?
oh, hence the sorry comment LOL
who has go long words
i have
i've found two RE 8s
oh I am so stuffed!! the pizza was great!
yay well done dc s
dcs, are you going to meet up with us if I come to the US??
you need to get that meat back on your bones mrp
yes well done
i will do my best to do so, mrp
bye
hasta, holly
bye
do you know where you're going to be yet, mrp?
It is a huge trip from the Antipodes, so hoping to see lots of babblers!
what is hasta
bye holly
see you later
lore, you are right! I have suffered ... I am 180 cm... 6 foot... but too thin.
bye holly :)
hasta - until, literally.
is the weight coming back on now?
dcs, it seems that New Jersey or New York is the plan???
but that isn't certain
oh, cool, that's easy to get to from here
and NJ is pretty, once one is off the highways
I have to go to Chicago and need to get to Pennselvania
NJ - New Jersey
and by NY, you mean New York City?
not sure I spelt that right
Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Harrisburg, Pittsburgh, or elsewhere?
yes I think so dcs, I have asked the babblers to organise the time and location
Chicargo is a nice place to visit
:) gotcha, mrp
does anyone have the the di 9 at all
have fun Babblers need to to get some chores done back later
Northern New Jersey is very convenient to most of Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware, Northern Virginia, southern NY, and Connecticut
have fun, lore
I must visit Chicago... A C Neilson is there (lickety's work) and his boss... is a given that I be there... Mamabear is there... I must see her Pennsylvania is where Nut is... no way I am not seeing her... she works for Homeland Security, so wherever that is, I will be there
night lore!!
yes, kazzer, thanks to you, who turned out to be the di9 route to it for me
di 9 is based on the di 6
I work for Homeland Security, too
ty got it by monkeying
I keep typing in diaphrahm... so sad
anyway off to have a nervous breakdown - the dishwasher has just blown up, the garage roof is coming off and we think the boiler is on the blink, so its has turned into the sunday from hell. might be back later
diahragm even!
oh, best with all that, kazzer
diaghragm even!! LOL
diaphragm
thank you dcs... I depend on different methods :D
Fireworks!
yay merk!!
well, spelling in English, whichever dialect is not easy
congrats, merk!!!
ooh, greyed my 2nd box LOL
and i ought sleep, seeing as it's nearly 05.
so, good night/day and happy babbling! :D
nite dcs!!
sorry, was totally absorbed in tennis :D
ok, time for me to leave too... 4 kids to get to bed! LOL ... that will not happen!! bye all :D
I am missing one re 8/40 - the one between the 2x re 5/10's (network of fibres and doing up your laces again). Can anyone help?
how do you know how many there are? sorry, I'm new to this.
stank, you can see it in tile stats
I see that, but how do you know how many 8/40s you're missing? I understand that there are 13 Ps total, but how do you know the length of the words you're missing?
Found it!! Fireworks. Nite all.
re 8 -- add jeweled headdress: ****a and very angry: l*v*d
nite anike!
ok, stank, you need to go to angelsong's page and read it from top to bottom
if you go to the bottom of the grid, there is a list
In the friends of babble there are sites such as lickety's babble clues that give you more detailed stats
wow thanks BabRab - looks like one of 'your' words
Hello everyone
read anglesong... and then you could use Lickety's Clues as a way of finding where you are at. you can aske lickety to give you the babblexpert too. just email him
hi lynxx!!
cool. thanks for the help. I'll check it out right away.
hi MRP. Looks like you've sent your weather our way, stinking week coming up.
indeed lynxx. and we are not spared either!
Really, you lot must be shrivelled up by now
oh it has been horrid! but today was a blessing.... only 24
the next couple of weeks are going to be nasty
When do the kids go back to school?
lynxx, I have two young boys here... they are 1 year apart (like mine) and almost share the same birthdays!! It is amazing to see the interaction.. They go back on Wednesday
their father is from papua new guinea, and their mum is from new zealand
their grandmother is chinese
can you imagine how gorgeous those kids are???
I just want to eat them up!! they are adorable!!
I love the diversity of our culture here in australia
Absolutely. My sister IL and husband lived in NG for a number of years so met quite a few people from there. SIL even mentored a Miss PNG would you believe. A very attractive race
indeed! the kids are short!! but adorable! LOL
one of them is in Luke's class, and another is in Maddie's class... they get on beautifully!
Are they boarding down here? Happy co-incidence that they are in both yr kids classes
ooooh, Dokic seems to be winning!!
no lynxx. they live across the road from the school. Mum is a single parent. Luke befriended Noah (year 4) and Maddison is 'tolerant' of Josh (year 5)... but it has been a treasure for them being here... Luke has learnt a lot from them socially
lol @ tolerant. and good to learn to be a 'host' as well
One thing I love about this area... the kids have friends over all the time!! Since we moved to near their school, they are so so so happy!!
We lived 7 km away from their school... now we live 1km away
Good stuff! now you just need to find a house to buy in the same area -? or are you happy enjoying the benefits of renting? no maint etc
actually, I think it might be 700m!
let's just say... they can't get the bus! LOL
lynxx. we love this house... will put in an offer
cool!
I am so happy here! I never want to leave! this is the house for us
I'll keep my fingers crossed they want to sell
thanks darling... they have been trying to sell for 18 months. so shouldn't have any problem
have you been watching the tennis lynxx??
oh wow - it's meant to be then!
that is what I believe too!!
Not into sports MRP. You have been enjoying it though I can tell. Pity I haven';t got a larger house, you could come down for a week or so and go to a few matches
pity indeed! I am determined to watch the open next year!
I would sell my soul for 2 weeks at the open. how sad is that! I really love the tennis. I can't play cause of my arm, but that is my favourite sport
i have to go put some 'control' into 'go to bed'... seems impossible, but will work!
Good luck
they are wanting to sleep under the sairs
stairs even
we have to hiding holes... both of them under the stairs on the bottom level and on the second level... such a blast for kids!
see you all later girls and boys! lovely to see you! bye!!
bye
yuck! teeth words! and hi!
Hi ATa
hi herin
thanks Ata
how are you and the fur bratts
good! hobbit is out harrassing the countryside with husband, and sily is dozing. just for a change
YAH
Who's kitty is that?
that is next door's kitty, Hobbit's Arch Enemy. he's called Freddy
Oh dear How can Hobbit be afraid of a cat?
not afraid, she just wants to see him expelled from Her Garden
oh
she chases him up trees or over the fence whenever possible
oh what a horrid cat (if she is doing that in your yard)
well it's a communal garden, so freddy has just as much right to be there as Hobbit, but Hobbit moved here first, so it's Hers. According to her
ok
Hobbit needs to understand that everything is owned by Cat
not in hobbit's world lol. and sily doesn;t reinforce that idea at all
Lucius has take to ''death from above'' on poor Pandora
awwwww
poor pandora!
Its funny as all heck but he is risking her wrath
she'll swipe him back one day and re-establish the order
He jumps up on the stereo speaker then down onto her. She is getting better and only snarls at him when he is being a pain in the butt
And us humans have warned him
which of course will make NO difference!
OH and we are having a massive Star Wars exhibition here to. SO excited
oh coooool
isnt it the one we had a while ago?
Probably. It went to Sydney first and it was there only and I think we of the geekiness went '' hey what about us''
if it is, it's FAB
yes, think it is then, it went from london to the US and then australia
We will be going over and over and over again. And maybe run a Starwars session in the yard
they have a lot of cool stuff. including pretty boys running around dressed up as jedis
droooooool
and they have Vader and the Emperor there too for the Jedi School thing
3 Jun - 3 Nov 2009 this is how long its going to be there for
herin: http://tinyurl.com/creyx2
I am afraid that one of the geek boys will find a fault. Like I have done at both the National Art Gallery and the Neighbours Exhibit.
there are a few
Um we are sad sad monkeys. I hope we can take pics
they spelled ppl's names wrong etc
I remember the Art Gallery had a fault in their Egypt Hieroglyphics and told them. The neighbours one was an error
we could, i took 100s
woooooot . I have a brilliant camera that has aqua mode. Useful for glass
and they have the most amazing set of sketches / concept art / stuff along the walls, make sure you look at *all* the pictures, don't just sweep past to the fun things
Was it called Star : Were Science Meets the Imagination?
ermm cant remember
dang I am hopping this is the same as the one in NSW
*any* SW exhibition is good naws!
*news
true. This one you can play with stuff
woot!
I need to make sure i go when im least going to be bugged
lol definitely
Oh yes that and lots of sugar
i was looking for the I that doesn't exist
never a good idea LOL
hello all
hi!!
I returned to the merry land of Babble a little while ago
i spent the last hours making sure that the daughter got a go!!
kudos to her
nice to see you back :)
hi ata :)))
hi mrp!!
back again, hi all
the kids are sleeping under the stairs! LOL!! that has got to be hot! I am so excited for them all!
hi spritey!
hi sprite! ((hugs))
morning everyone
hi Ata *hugs* Well done mrP, that is an adventure. They will stay with you permanently now. Hiya Katie
hi katie!
tis almost morning here too!
hi kitt!
early morning should be called preday
Morning all. Watching excellent tennis from Aus.
I finished yesterday wthout the list, spritey :P
indeed sprite!!
hi Frances
ah, now I feel even worse about yesterday, thanks Ata :P
you are a hero ata
though with MUCH cursing and swearing LOL
lol sorry *hugs sprite muchly*
now that is good to hear!
*grins*
so many times I nearly gave up on it, then I'd get 1 more word ... it was horrid, as we all know!
hi to those that I missed whilst splashing about in the frid
btw my potato salad has turned out extremely delicous.
oooo wonderful
isn't rediet what most women do?
Ata, exactly. I said so this morning too.
lol Ata
though I said reslim, of course, not wanting to give away a word :P
well yes ... but .... :)
hi lady
lol don't but me girl!
what you keep putting off while you keep putting on
Are you better sprite?
ow nice one BabbleRabble
yup, flu is past tense, thank God.
good good
I think most people are *finally* recovering from viruses and bugs and goodness knows what
yeah it has been all around for sure
Himself has a cough still but is better and is going back to work on Tuesday (wooooohooooooo)
oops gtg dry the dog! bbl!
my love is cranky, has sore muscles and even forgets to kiss me before bed or after coming in. Either the love is over or he is about to get flu himself.
Time to go-- see you all in the morning ... tata
bye Merk
Lets hope he doesn't get man flue Sprite
bye Merk
lol he is a de4. Just came in to kiss me and say sorry for being so cranky. Still sore muscles though and he doesn't look perky. I won't be surprised if he has to stay in bed tomorrow.
Oh bless him
no he won't, lady. When he is really ill, he sleeps. When he isn't, he just needs lots of attention and hugs, but not much care.
boy am I having a thick day, I'm finding this really hard
that and Chicken noddle soup
Katie, I don't think this is a really easy grid! Not as bad as yesterday's, but there are a lot of stinkers among the more findable words.
could somebody please kick me when I try diary one more time?
Sprite today I took for ever at the store and the b.f bought me a chai tea which was very sweet
good men are hard to find and worth to keep
a grid that may be dispatched expediently
perhaps more than one, sprite
if a grid is to you, BabbleRabble, I know it will give me some hardship.
Hi Mr Babble
roflol... that was evil, BabbleRabble!
and yes, I did type it in
Yes they are hard to find and worth to keep
G'd morning Babblers! Looks like we got us 'yer classic poopy type grid.
morning Lori
at least it is one step up from yesterday's, Lori. Hi.
all these r's should be illegal. :/
I'm so glad I didn't play yesterday!
I think i only found time for 40 words yesturday
over halfway and still having fun. Potato salad done, family matters settled. But still in my pyjamas.
I'm trying to warm up, the heating is broken at church and we can't get a new boiler, hence forth Sunday's will be known as thermals day
wow that sounds very cold, Katie. A little thermos with tea perhaps?
we do have coffee after the service which is sooooo welcome!
That's unfortunate Katie. :(
welcome and needed, I'd say
I'm taking it as a test of faith to get up early on a Sunday and then not warm up until the afternoon
Katie is it time to hold a fete to get $$$ for boiler? or trade work for boiler?
We have the money for it we just can't get one on the supply chain. It will be a few weeks before we can get hold of one
poo
who needs a te4 of faith in church with all that happens in our lifes?
*lives
hi everyone back to finish off this grid
LOZ
ahhhh i've ended up in the penalty box!!!!
hi loriP been a while
G'd morning lore!
lobo!!! *hugs* Happy day for me, playing with you twice!
I'm more worried about the older members of the congregation, some of them should not be in that much cold
yay sprite
um time for heated jumpers
so true, Katie. Perhaps all should bring blankets and lend them to the older members?
sin bin is nicely heated, Katie.
Thank you sprite, shuffling off to get a hot chocolate
In winter I used to bring my feather blanket to a friends house
OH and thermo''s of tea / coffee warm liquid?
yay at least the Cs are all done
also time to bring meditational dance back into the church.
I ahve managed to do the outside tiles of the grid
Yea for lore!
woot!
thanks LoriP those nasty re's next
yay herin
***whistles, acts casual, ignores re's***
you are so convincing, Lori
they wont go away you know
***If I ignore them long enough, they might!***
rewords are known for their resistance and their repositioning, alas
I'm off out now, don't know where but we are going to go somewhere nice!!! see you all later when I will be going to the list early!
bye Katie
bye katie enjoy your day
and will go straight to the pb!!! honestly it's not working for me today
have a great day Katie :)
Later Katie.
DOnt freeze too much
and get warm soon!
oh I found a 9!
woot Sprite
should anyone want a clue, please let me know
Is it stoopid or normal?
it is relatively normal, but sounds stoopid
sprite was that the di9/66 ?
yes lobo
lolol such a Babble thing to say! :)
ne 9
I haven't touched the d yet, so that's my excuse ...for now.
I have the ne 8, is the 9 even remotely connected to that root word BR?
three ne 8
Oooh.... there's my problem! ***looking***
oh lol, ok... only have one so far.
heh, gots 'em. I dismissed THAT possibility. Thanks BR, n is done
two now. Is the 9 related to any of them, BabbleRabble?

*hugs lobo* Treasuring the times you are in chat. And will keep thinking of you while you are busy with life ;)
thanks sprite but busy with other peoples lives and I have had a few hard lessons to learn the past few weeks thats why coming here is like my heaven on earth thanks you people for being who you are hugs to all
I thought the evil was in using expediently as opposed to expeditiously
BR lol

lol flosey
morning PJ
who wouldn't?
Hello friends. Another huge grid.
hi scrabbs!
Hi Scrabbs!
hi Scrabs
hey Scrabs :)
I am watching the last part of the HBO John Adams series. I have loved this series.
hi every one . flosey my sleep habits are about like yours,don't you hate it?!
hi Scrabs!
hi PJ
indeed I do PJ
hey nono!!!
hey everyone, i'm back...
wb lil*
Hi monkey--I started a game of Lexulous with you.
welcome back, monkey
wb lil monkey
i was playing my Scrabble games
wb lil
yes Scrabs, i just took my turn
hiya momkey :)
I love your first word LOL ("cad")
hi PJ
Hey, I play what I can, depending on the tiles I am dealt.
*sitting here wishing I had pancake fixins*
I would love to play scrabble online again... but I don't know where to play it!
I made a huge batch of pumpkin pancakes for the Babble crew last evening.
Scrabs, what Babble crew? Did they all come over to your house?
Natts, on Facebook there are applications for Lexulous (formerly Scrabulous) and Scrabble.
LadyNatts, do you have a profile on Facebook? It is free, and there are many Scrabble applications
oh...okay
For everyone here last evening, monkey--we had a fictional pancake festival.
I do have a profile.
go to Facebook.com and creat a free profile, Lady
hi everyone
whaat is your profile, Lady??? I will start a game with you
lady , I play it at <POGO>
I never go on, except to communicate with my sister and my offspring
hi Brookie
hi lil
hi brookie
Hi Brooke, how are you and your munchkin?
hi brookie :)
Brookie, I'm looking forward to meeting you IRL at the Babble party in Feb
oh thanks, lil*... but I think I'm going to go back to bed... It's Sunday morning, and only 6:40.
hi scrabs and pj! my little munchkin is happily playing with toys so mommy can play babble.
i'm looking forward to it too, lil!
OK Lady
looks like a fun grid today
Good for your munchkin, Brooke, allowing Mommy to play Babble.
how are you this morning?
duct tape is good for that :)
agreed
Hey, duct tape and bungee cords are my recommended child discipline tools, LOL.
joking of course :-)
LOL , i think all parents should bring a big roll to restaurants if they are going to insist on bringing their babies
hmmm, hadn't thought of bungee cords, will consider adding to repertoire
These tools keep kids SAFE.
safety is key
OK must go shower... BBL
when my now 19 yr old was a baby he had colic cried all the time, one night after hours of being awake hubby said let me put him down after 3 minutes silence I said what did you do - he said duct tape works great LOL (i checked he was kidding)
haha speedfreak
Haha, speedfreak
hubby has sense of humor!
and obviously you must to
*too*
we have a lot of good times and both boys inherited our "sick" humor
Amazing--John Adams & Thomas Jefferson died on the same day--July 4, 1826, 50 days after the signing of the Declaration of Independence.
you should be proud
Humor is a magnificent survival mechanism.
scrabbler my sister just gave me the dvd of that series looking forward to watching it
It is just ending now and I have LOVED it. I could watch it again! And I love the music--the theme is wonderful.
I am going to order the DVD series today from Netflix
It has been a great history lesson too.
Hi - areyou talking about the John Adams series. It played here on cable late last year. I was only saying last nite how much I enjoyed it
enjoy the grid time to meet our sunday group for breakfast be back later
Yes, the John Adams series
bye Speed
good morning all - breaking my own rule here - ususally don't chat until NBT, but those bottom e's have me so gridlocked, I gave up.
I got the DVDs from Netflix and returned the first 2 discs, and now I want to re-watch this. I will do it someday again.
hi trif
I wish they would do more on diff Presidents
Hi Trif

My nephew is sleeping. He came out here to the country to catch up on college studying but he is sleeping.
and bye Flosey
Bye Sprite
Sleep well, flosey
maybe he can take in knowledge through osmosis?
He has always gotten an "A" in Sleeping and in Goofing Off.
just found my last E from the bottom et6.18 - most of verelasting & a vowel
when my niece comes home, my BIL calls her room the crypt, since she goes in there, sleeps and sleeps and sleeps and hardly ever comes out
lynxx, I am so in love with you today!
Yep, he sleeps and eats.
ha! you are easy to please Trif!
TY, Lynxxx
remind me to stop babbling in about 20 minutes, okay? need to get ready for church....can
can't skip it, because my pastor is a babbler, so she will know where I am !!!!! ha ha ha
Who is the pastor/Babbler? Do we know her?
no, she doesn't chat.
Get her to switch from lurker to chatter.
which amazes me, by the way....must be that religious discipline
good morning everyone:)

Hi mrp--so when are you and Maddie coming to the US?

Just my opinion - but prediet shoudl be word!
I just entered re-di4--which is a common story.

prediet - makes perfect sense to me! :)
the John Adams series WAS terrific. morning all
hi dorens
lynxx, please may I have some help on the middle e on the second to last row?
prediet -- eat all the chocolate and other fattening stuff the day before you go on a diet
Pre-di4 = pigging out the day before you start a serious di4.
menopause = a pause to reconsider men
sorry, pb for me and team
exactly scrabbler!

Hi Doren. I am SO interested in that time of US history now.
LOL, Trif!

hi all
hi TO, quiet chog right now, i think every one is in deep
oh man! I so need to sleep!!
mrp! is it the heat keeping you awake?
well there goes peace and quiet! :D
corssoy pops out of the grid long enough to close the window and throw on a sweater...minus 15c out there today;(( mrp send me some heat please
ditto mr. p a balmy 18 here
yes beth! I am woun up
will send some of my 18f to you crossy
crossy frantically converts from american to celcius...;/
wound even
ok my darling friends 1
I need to be kind and sleep 1
love to to you all
have you tried a chillow, mrp? it is a pillow with a gel insert that you put in the fridge so you are supposed to stay cool
night night!!
bye and nighty night !
lol crossy it is 18 and cold in nj. im not sure where TO is
night mrp
crossy, i went to the bacon explosion site...i think it might need about a pound of cheese in the middle to make it absolutely perfect
nite nite!! (hugs) and poof!! keep well all !
just did the math..ill take your 18f ;)
thats only -7c
bethn...you are my favoite:))
favorite even
i don't know how you do it crossy. i manage a window cleaning business, our men are having such a bad season, and we're not nearly as cold as you
lol bethn...we dont clean windows outside when its that cold...whats the point it would all be ices in seconds
i am a firm believer in bacon, butter, cheese, and have the thighs to prove it!
once it gets below -18 or 0f it would be a joke
we have people calling and complaining their window are "streaky"
omg
it is hard to be polite to them
i had to chisel icicles that were hanging 3 feet down into the window spaces yesterday cause people couldnt open them for the ice build up so tell them to suck it up with the streaks;)
phone, brb
why do people WANT to open the windows if it is so cold?
fresh air is still needed on older places..it can get very stuffy and dry with electic heaters
dodnt say we had them open for long! lol
damn typos
eh, we can tell what you meant
30 seconds and you can ventilate an entire house with one open window :)
wow. i did not know that.
the fun really begins when you get below minus 25 like we did day before yesterday
but to be honest i think we would be lost without the change of seasons,we freeze in winter,roast in summer and spring and fall are short blips of pure pleasure
yes, our are slightly less extreme but i relish the changing seasons as well.
lol thought you went from,damp to steamy,to misty,to downpours :)
lol jk
and winter doesn't seem as interminable to me as an adult as it did when i was a kid. time just goes by faster.
ah, you are being misled by my flag :)
do all your stores carry super duper arctic wear crossy? even with gloves with thinsulate my hands are cold when i go out
hi hurshy!
hello
we have excellent outdoor stores and thinsilates and fleece are the best
not arctic by any means labrador and nwt have to deal with extremes of minus 3o to minus 60!!!!!
we are a garden spot by comparison
nunivat etc
snow garden
anyone have the lower right E's? are they ex- ?
i grew up in upstate ny, so nj has much milder winters by comparison, but is is stil really really cold this year
coldest ive personally felt is minus 44 with wind chill minus 50...if you spit,it freezes before it hits the ground and you breathe in through the nose and out through the mouth so as to not frost your lungs
ex6 ex+in**** (bug)
thanks beth... wouldn't have thought that could be the 3rd letter
angst. angst angst angst unamused
ex+in**** (to put in)
why all the angst?
is your sister ok?
thank you again beth!
I'm meant to be starting an MSc in a few days, husband said he'd pay. He turns round *today* and says I have to find a loan for it! Will never do that in time!
yvw !
sorry ata..msc?
MSc in what
omg crossy!
Coastal Zone Management
and how will you get a loan if they know your husband has money to pay for it?
master of science - step between bachelor's and PhD
i'm so sorry Ata... {{{hugs}}}}
but you already have your PhD
well he doesn't now because he decided to spend that money on himself
so?
:((
on what for himself??
morning...di 7/32 clue pls?
journals
a new camera. a very expensive one
geez, it must be VERY expensive if it compares with tuition!
yep!
Does anyone have the io6 please? It is probalby fishy, but I can't find it.
good grief! if i pulled a last minute stunt like that on my wife,my ass would be grass!
is he a professional photographer ata?
*picturing crossy with a grassy ass*
io + homonym for kicks the bucket
no, he would use it maybe once every 2 months
thanks hurshy
io....like salt
thanks too kim
yw
and the tuition was brought up long ago or a sudden thing?
it would be for his telescope to do astrophotography *unamused*. he's had his telescope for 3 years now and he's used it twice
at least a few months ago
mmm..good grief id be a dead man....
and how does the cost of tuition compare with the cost of divorce?
he has *no* idea LOL
I'm sure tuition would be cheaper for him!
good morning folks. How is everybody
perhaps that is a point to make then...
clue for any of the Ys please?
tell him from one guy to another that he should maybe pass on the camera...
I will. Grrrrrrr
matchmaker matchmaker make me a match
i have a friend who's cousin is a forensic pathologist...we often discuss untraceable murder methods
on second thought, DON'T!
I can hopefully defer to September and start then and save away money without him realising. But Still! I want to do it now! I've been soooo looking forward to it!
yiddish matchmaker + pl
air in the syringe (from agatha christie)
azalea leaves in food (looks like oregano etc)
lets compare this camera vs tuition....camera= 20 to 30 years of domestic hell or divorce or poison in the oatmeal..tuition= happy wife with big fat degree for high paing job...mmmm seems clear to me....
doesn't always work, I believe
you have the wisdom of a sage crossy
yeah i think it is best on the old and weak.
is "air in the syringe" a clue for a Y word???? I got the matchmaker words
no, air in the syringe is a murder method
change the last vowel monkey
wife always said i was full of it bethn
there are three of them, monk
I already have a better degree, lol. but its a very academic one of no use to man nor beast apart from ppl who like studying dead fish. This would be a useful degree that I could get a job near here that I would be really happy with
i have 3 matchmakers wrods
full of sage?
so ata, is he like my husband - the kind that is immune to domestic hell?
and what is the cost of tuition vs camera?
camera is about half the total tuition for 2 years
yep!
so about 4 grand or so
unfortunately there are always women around to soothe their egos
we need to start a business for gals who are considering marriage, so we can help them avoid marrying guys like this
after 34 years of practice, i make domestic hell that no one is immune to
not that bad :) MSc is cheap, it's about £1500
yup 4 grand cad
lol yay beth!
oh, Canadian, yep!
pound is about $2.75 or so
i lay awake at night thinking of new variations....
geez, in the US masters degrees are so much more expensive
my wife can do hell natuarally..no thinking needed
lol
this is a pretty cheap one, it's mainly distance learning so no real costs involved
see beth, if i get mad, my husband just gets mad back, and we could be in a frosty silence ... forever. he never gets cowed by anything.
me to crossy, but sometimes you want to change it up a bit
clue for ya5 pleeeeeeeeeeeease
i don't have it monkeeeeeey
im rad that married men live longer..but we are more willing to die;)))
hear*
ditto here, hurshy! it doesn't work!
EEK! there's a critter int he grid!
i wish we could just stick our husbands with each other and we could be roomies and have a nice peaceful pleasant life.
i (unfortunately) can out silence anyone. It is not a good trait. it would not bother me to not speak for months if i was that angry. so generally i win by default because noone wants to deal with me being so unremittingly nasty :(
ooh thanks TO, that greys the right col for me!
crossy slowly and quietly backs out of the room......
lil*, scottish word for lord, drop the l insert the y
It just feels longer crossy
TY gramma
ty gramma!
yw
some days i would do it over not to be alone, though. i don't care what you say about strong and all. life alone pretty much sucks.
i have been married 34 yrs - i could have murdered him and been out by now
I can too, but normally I can't be bothered to. This time it might just warrant it though!
oh thanks for that, Owl
i dunno, maybe life just sucks no matter what, TO.
ty hursh. don't take me too erisouly, just lost my dad's siste,there areonly two of them left now. and when my dad goes i will truly be alone
well, these ce's are a treat, huh?
when i was young and single, living a single life seemed really hard, but now that i'm married, i think anything is better than being married to someone you don't want to be married to! ohh, i am sorry for your loss. :(
the grass is always greener!
oh for all the things left undone"each thing i do i do fast so i can do something else" "time is the fire in which we burn
if that's truly the case, be thankful you foound out while so young. alhtough i am sure it does not seem like something to give thanks for.
i really think the live with a friend approach seems like a good bet.
me too , really
my sister and i have already agreed if either of us becomes widows someday we will move in with the other... so i'm just marking time till one of the guys pops off...
i would give anything for a sister
you could not pay me to live with my sister
you can have mine monkey
i would also, but i only have a brother and we are like night and day
my wife and i have each at one point saved each other lives.i hope and pray i dont screw up for another 5 years or so then we can just coast and dig on all the memories and turn the kids bedroom into a reading room:))
however, my sister likes being married to her husband.
I wouldn't wish either of my (so-called) sisters on anyone...
morning all
exactly beth - me and my sister would fight like cat and dog - she is as useless at house work as i am and we would just hurl abuse about the state of the home
on NYE i ran into a woman who told me her husband left after 40 years
I don't have a brother or sister :(
my sisters and i would have a fab life together... sigh...
ata! what has happened to your sister?!
and i must go get ready - will need to drive up to NJ later today or tomorrow
sadly I rather wish I didn't have sisters; my brothers are worth keeping though
i wouldn't know about my brother he hasn't been in touch with the family for 20 years and doesn't reply to any attempts to get in touch
mine is very very agressive. she has some rare deformity in her skull which makes he blood pressure at near stroke levels at all times - it also triggers the fight or fligth mechanism - she refers to fight
my father had lunch with his 90 year old sister on tuesday past and she died yesterday. they hjad lunch almost every week
oh! she's my adopted sister. No blood sisters! Forgot about her :P But she probably won't last much longer either!
oh, I'm so sorry to hear that TO!
now that is a nice thing
:( so many sad stories :(
I'm sorry, TO :(
Sorry for you loss TO
no. no - i think that it's waonderful - to have a life not be in bed and to be able to walk and have a good time with family and then your time is over.
still we dont live very close to any of em so i dont worry about it. Temple i think your pa will be very lonely for a while
even my dad says that
sorry for your loss, TO
that is true, TO
it's hardest on those left behind.
parrot is asking to be fed must go see you all later
no really it's ok - i really must go now happy babbling
later, TO
now for a happy story we have a local child with a rare heart deformity..cost of the all the incedentals that go along with this operation was prohibitive to the partents so the town we live in rallied and raised $300,000 and as i understand it was all taken care of this fall just past and the child is doing fine:))
wonderful, crossy!!!
ty, crossy! :)
that is great
bye all *poof*
wonderful!
only waas about 50 dollars per resident..not bad for a life saved;)
back again, what an uplifting story crossy - must be a very public spirited town
its kind of comforting really..no matter what strange malady you may get,you know you have your back covered
lovely cat, flosey
until your doctors refuse to treat you any more cos it's too risky for them
thanks Ata
thats what waivers are for
some drs won't do that
not just risky for malpractice... they don't like to have their stats lowered.
yep exactly
here ive signed my life away so many times its all just part of the standard paperwork:/
like with my sister, they won't treat her now
I think I've found the perfect tv show for my dog...
...he's glued to the screen watching Animal Planet! (funniest animals)
looks like this may be a tough grid? (hi al!)
you dont get ANY chemo treatment without first signing a waiver or most eye operations or anything that require intubation
house tricked a surgeon into operating on a patient and cuddy chastised him, saying the surgeon had a right to know what he was operating on, and house goes, "oh, i'm sorry, i got all caught up with her right to LIVE"
awwww!
that's a riot, pini
i want to see the house series,i hear its very good
(he's not much for the commercials - the only time he looks around)
ooooh, I love watching House! ;)
surgeons needed to poke into sister's arm last week to get her brachial artery intact. they refused, basically, because it was too likely to go wrong. So she's stuck with a likely to explode artery
think ill just buy the first 2 seasons on dvd and give it a go:)
he does amazing American accent
oh you should, its *fab*
that's awful, Ata
then if it were my arm id tell them to aputate if it was that much of a life risk
yeah, it's about typical at the moment though! we're just immune to such things
amputation is an option, but even more dangerous - she has "issues" with healing
hurshy - you still here?
mmm
haz!
yes
though id hope its not the hand i...errrr....write with ;)
*wonders if she is in trouble*
You remember you were talking about House's fake British accent? I found the segment on Youtube - he's speaking in a VERY plummy upper-crust accent, so people listening would think he was taking the mickey a bit.
Hello to all, by the way - just wanted to catch hurshy when I saw House mentioned.
hey, haz! good to see you!
ah, how funny (wait, what's taking the mickey? drunk?)
taking the piss..making fun of
take the mickey -- pull your leg
it's not the hand she errr writes with :P but she has to do about an hour's worth of dressings changing everyday and she sure needs 2 hands for that!
'Taking the mickey' - fooling around, making fun of.
love the icon, haz!
Hello Une - I think it's safe at this time to display it.
:-D
ah, well, he's always making fun of people, so that's really a safe assumption in his case.
haz, feel free to adapt it for dogs any time :-)
ahh! here is my better half all rumpled from bed... cough.. crossy smile and says nothing as he kisses her cheek
It's been on the go for a while, Une, just thought I'd show it again.
(im safe,she cant see the type for the first few minutes after waking up):)
Anyway, back to finding words. I'm building up speed, about 1 word every ten minutes at this point.
oh hazmeister! i apologize. i prefer the fun joking around myself really but sometimes i forget.
is the grid tough today..i have 50 words and it's getting slower..
krista, have 194 words and no list so far
i dunno krista, i've found it about normal
morning all- just getting started on this one
Anyway, back to finding words. I'm building up speed, about 1 word every ten minutes at this point.
hi krista...not too bad, I'm at 110 and haven't listed yet...
hi magmom
hey, magmom
83 with no list, which, for me, is a lot
hey, jbp!
i'm just at a hump i guess
Don't worry about it, hurshy.
hey pini, krista, jbp, une, hursh, haz!
hi MagMom
not at all, krista...
and g'morning all
hi jbp
hi jbp, everyone
magmom love the licon!
tx jbp- that's the cover of the magazine I edit
must get going . . . totally exhausted from watching so much fabbo tennis from Australia in the wee hours! lOL
ok, seeing more words now...coffee kicking in!...have a good one, Une
great composition of colors
I see we have the glorious X again today
magmom...it's only used in 2 words: ex6/36 and ex6/33
nuh-uh, i have se4
there's an s with it too
pini- that's good news!
well shoot...guess I haven't gotten the other ones...looking for the "other" X's now
is that the only other one? the se4?
(btw: found it)
de5
i have an se 4/9 with an x in it
found the se thanks hursh and wild
yeah, what they said :) sorry
just got it, thanks wildcat
ok...4 words with the x...I shouldn't have said anything
anyone here use Google docs?
yw
which way do the ex words go?
i am stuck on 2nd si the si 6/21 - any clues
jbp...they flip back to the left
"To Si* with Love" + "My ***ling Clementine" , Kazzer. Hi babblers
thanks Aloy, I needed that one
thx aloy
thanks pini
yw ..
i'm not seeing them
*looking up si 6/21*
thanx for all the clues got it - onto the ts
ok, so ext or exs?
the more unlikely of the two
exs for both
thanks hursh.
my monkeys got them jb... yours will too
how many letters are the exs words?
(putting monkeys to work)
both 6
6
ty
better get dressed for the day - neighbour will be popping in for coffee
got one that sounds like it ends in a breath mint
got one that sound like a bug :)
a bug?
breath mint...hmmm
now change one letter for the other one
like the big boss sounding one
thanks guys
thanks!
any Y clues?
yoda does not work :-)
re8/40: re5/10 (the one with spanish aunt in it) + r + double vowel
can you send me some words
nor yedi, the swedish star wars thing
yes or no
(groan)
i think most emphatically no.
y not
lol hursh. don't fodder the troll
is dr god a star wars fan? there are always SW words in the grid
because if you enjoyed playing, you would want to find words yourself, not have them sent to you. and if you don't enjoy playing, you should go do something you enjoy.
**** posting official "Do Not Feed the Trolls" sign" in chog****
a gladiator equipped with a net for casting over his opponent.... great word to know!
whatever never minsd
are there any ph words?
oh THAT one is in the grid? Thanks! (just kidding of course)
i mean whateva never mind
nope, no ph
thank for the clue hurshy
cool
ye... matchmaker
it's a 5, and one ends in 1st vowel and the other in the 2nd
dies is one
and a plural
Good Morning Haz1558
Hello Christa, good morning.
i am listening to a song it is wicked
by the way i am a kid not and adault
who is the ne8/45 of us all? ;-)
lovely name, Christa :)
i mean adault
i am a kid
*sits with duct tape over mouth*
wow, across an ocean, we're doing the same thing, hursh!
(ok, not really across an ocean, but still)
no jpb, same side of pond really :)
yeah, I know, but you are brit in spirit.
good morning, babbler, tearing off an extra strip of duct tape here
hush little hurshy dont you chirp
hi jbv
hi j, i know we're going to confuse people now
or shall i call you "p"?
going to? ;-)
lower case and upper case jb!
jbp and jbv, hurshy and ursh, krista and christa...
just don't call me la++ for dinner
hursh..ursh..jbp..jbv...argh
now all we need is a Kristy :)
oh yes..and the ch/kristas lol
that's what I was thinking
are they your initials jbv?
thank goodness for our icons
what if we got an atalanta and a haz1559
speaking of icons.. is there a theme for today?
yes, jbp
then we'd really be snookered
believe it or not, I think it's about our names, Christa
hooray FIREWORKS at last, i am now off to think about the haggis - Burns Night tonight so its haggis and spuds and swede - yummy
really!
krista, your icon is going to be giving me nightmares
mine too
huzzah Kazzer
my little Crabby icon? you mean Christa?
yay, congrats to Kazzer!!!
it's kinda scary
I've had him for years..I have been considering a change.
i should just always type the scary lake name in, because I never see it.
he was very angry when i took that pic
i bet. you can see the anchor in his eyes
just checked Sprite's profile -the icon theme for today is Blessings/Something you are grateful for - I'm grateful for my son who helps me figure out how to do things with icons, photos, etc. on the computer, since he's not here right now, my icon will remain the same
i threw him back, so he ended up happy
whew that's good krista.... oh wait, you mean, he's still out there???????
lol, JBV
he's the one who skinned your fish ;)
*thinks she should change icon*
*looking for cuddly teddy bear icon*
so let
Related to nothing, but wouldn't Bikini Line make a great name for a cruise company? (uh-oh, monkey brain attack!)
s see if my icon changed
yes, it did
could cruise to Bikini Bottom (Spongebob's hometown)
that's what I'm grateful for, other than a pic of my hubby
who is standing behind me
i dont recognize you with a different icon...lol..*waves to hubby*
Hello Everyone! Happy Sunday!
bullwinkle is waving back
she is always saying how grateful she is for her wonderful husband
hi car!
hi car
just realized I passed the halfway mark - good time for a break - see you later, good luck everyone
hi car
what sort of academic were you, jbp, apart from frustrated
ok, now even he knows that's laying it on thick
german and swedish medieval lit
Okay, I switched to my blessings :-)
but loved language teaching
have a nice afternoon, JBV
later other jb
later JBV
CUTE!
oooo wow!
me, krista? they have their moments LOL
academia is inherently frustrating though *sigh*
Yes, they are adorable. I uploaded new icon
yeah, I came to the conclusion that if I finished my diss, I would still have to publish at least a book and 5 articles every seven years, and I just decided I wanted a better quality of life
so I found it to an extent in a cubicle
ty krista!
and have to spend at least half of that time applying for money!
hi everyone...
yw..what is their age diff? My Daughter is 5.5 years older than son.. 13 and 8
yep. plus I think fewer than 10 people in the world would have found the diss useful... Old Norse and Arthurian catalyst archetypes ... not so much
oooh I like that icon Krista- very cool!
So many super-intelligent Babblers here..I"m not worthy.
pshaw, jkrista
lol yep, that sounds familiar!
Do I look nicer, now? lol
just because I know a bunch of stuff doesn't mean I'm smart
are you grateful for apples?
and mag mom, your urchins are way cute
that would be a great name for a band...
Lol..It was hard to find one for health. if you click on it, it says health
one of my friends would love you, she's studying postgraduate Viking studies and Old Norse
what would ruru
the grateful dead apples
wow, where?
ty jbp- urchins is such an apropo term for them LOL
Back again, with fresh eyes.
Newcastle, up north in the UK
hey scrabb
hi scrabs!
BabbleRabble is here! I mean Ruru.. :)
gotcha. Well there are certainly plenty of Viking sites to explore in N England
I'm onto you. I know you are the same person.
what is going to happen when babble shows up at the same time...lol
I haven't been to York since they made it into a theme park, though
Ruru is BR? Is it true?
Hi Scrabbler
i believe that would be a sign of the apocalypse, ruru
Have you ever seen them here at the same time?
I am nowhere near as smart as Babble.. and no I am not Babble
I am watching "The Office" from 3 days ago. Dwight Shrute is hilarious.
LOL, ok, ok, I'll give up my theory.
she's just been writing a biiig essay thing on how the Vikings affected the decline of teh Carolingians
I freely admit I am as bad a punner as babble though
well, with 111 words I almost have nbt. Any help with the i on the right, highest one?
similar to ir mad...
yep, it's the punny-ness
afternoon!
that sounds like a very fertile topic. My favorite thing from that period about the vikings is they realized that if they converted to Christianity, they would get gifts. So, they would convert and sail away. And come back the next day and loot an plunder.
ohhh, ata! i was looking for you yesterday!
Hi Feather. I started a game of Lexulous with you.
thanks ruru
oh yes! they were wonderfully sneaky
hi feather!
Hi feather
scrabs, i started a scrabble game with you! i really don't like the lexulous layout.
OK, I will check out Scrabble.
with history like that, no wonder the Pythons loved the medieval stuff
are any of the viking sites open to the public, jbp i love viking/norse history
ata: on twitter, i'm following @lancearmstrong, and through him found a ton of other cyclists to follow! johann bruyneel does updates on the race from his blackberry in the team car, and i have several other cyclists on my list now
well, I'm going to take a break for a bit/ bbl. happy babbling all!
the new england sites, I meant
krista, you should be able to see online. i know York has a bunch of stuff
oh, that I don't know. I know there's one up in Canada
oh wow! I really need to sort my twitter out and add you and fran and lance!
c'ya jbp
ty..have a good afternoon
the name escapes me, but it's french.
later all
ata, google "tweetdeck" it's an application you download. lets you create lists of people you follow, and automatically updates so you don't have to keep goign to the site and refreshing to see new stuff.
I use twitterfox, it's a similar thing for firefox!
i am behind on my scrabble and lexulous games, btw..will catch up this evening
this is who i've found to follow so far: axel merckx, dave zabriskie, george hincapie, ivan basso, johan bruyneel, lance, team astana
ohhh, will need to look into twitterfox!
Patrick got me an iPod Touch for Christmas..said he thought about an iPhone, but didn't think I'd want it...tried not to sound disappointed, but AAAGGH
it's nice, it sits on the bottom menu bar of firefox and shows you new updates
cool, after i've got daniel in bed for his nap i'll check it out
awwww krista
its for the best..i need to be online less, not more
Feather & Krista, I took my turns in our Scrabble games.
thanks, Scrabbs..I'll do mine tonight..i'm off to celebrate my Dad's 81st bday
Happy Birthday, Krista's Dad!!
hello
Hi Seain! I just finished watching the John Adams series and thought of you, growing up and living in the midst of historical places.
thanks! I'll tell him..he has early stage Alzheimer's and Parkinsons..who knows what next year will be like
hi Seain...i am itching to watch John Adams
Yep, my folks will be 78 in the spring.
yes, that i do. I got very angry living in Boston, due to the number of business founded 1861-1865. Where i live was a DMZ back then.
I have never been to Boston or DC, but I was in Philly twice.
how many hours long is the JA series?
John Adams is on which network?
I've never spent much time in Philly, though i've been there a lot
it was showtime, wasnt it?
7 parts, but some are longer, 1.5 hrs, I think. I got the set from Netflix and am obsessed with that time in history now.
It was on HBO. It is so well done!
ah, on Netflix - may check it out
Did you decide where to go for your weekend in April, Seain?
can someone clue me on the at 7?
Not yet, Krista
I have only 102 words and am not s
at7 - medical term, sort of like a natural spring
not "seeing" well today.
we're going to jamestown in march..havent been there since i was a kid..they have discovered SOO much more since then
good morning/afternoon everyone :)
lil*Monkey lives in Yorktown, krista
hi, nan!
hey, nan :-)
hi nan
TY, Seain. Pediatricians see kids with pulmonary valve at7 or duodenal at7.
Hi nan
a + spanish "three" + encycloped**
Hi Une and Aloy
absolutely so, scrabbler :)
TY Aloy! I never would have gotten it otherwise!
hey, scrabs :-)
thanks you two
hi Scrabbler.. snow still good for xc skiing?
howdy folks
yw car.. glad you got it
i thought she was in VA Beach..same general area I guess
hey, takuma :-)
hi Takuma.. you have a very melodic name!
hi, takuma
she moved recently, krista
hi nan and takuma
I hadn't thought of it that way before -- thanks :)
hi takuma
Nope, Aloy. :-( We have had no fresh snow in several days, then it warmed to 44 on Friday and has been at 13 since yesterday. The trail is solid ice so I hiked it and watched skiers wiping out on ice.
Scrabs and dc, if you ever come to Phila. again, let me know
ok, i'm really off now (in so many ways)
Hi Takuma
hagd krista
will do, peri :)
ciao krista
ooh, ice is horrible..
yikes, scrabs!
LOL abot the skiers, scrabbs
and hello all
ice is common here, to point that i found spring in boston easy to navigate.
hey, peri :-)
hi peri
hasta, krista
hey peri
oops... shoulda said, hi pe**
hello
hey, harp
When I arrived at the trailhead I asked a woman how the trail was and she told me that she had started then returned quickly after finding solid ice. So, I hiked through the woods, in the sun, then sat in the lodge next to the fire and worked on the NYT crossword puzzle.
Hi jane
nice, scrabbs
hello, jane
mmmmm, fire . . . lodge . . .
sounds lovely, scrabs
and magazine, and aloy and une
hey, seain :-)
I am too afraid to use my fireplace here.
had one big fire and newest adopted dog ran out of the room . . . none since then
poor baby!
huh. have you tried smaller ones to acclimate him, une?
I made it through the d's...***does happy dance ***
go, ruru!
that's what I need to do for her, seain . . . just haven't gotten around to cleaning out and laying another fire
maybe the poor dog had a bad experience before you got him.. hate to think of it, Une.. but he has bad associations apparently
Go ruru!
go, ruru!
the hose is out in the ya5
aloy, I'm hoping she just hadn't had the experience before
she was a stray, then an outside foster with a lady for nearly 2 years
oh, my une, poor thing
but she's VERY happy at my casa!
How lucky for both of you, Une. What is her name?
Momma--they'd already named her that for quite awhile so I let it stay . . . when they found her, she'd had a litter of pups and was having a hard time taking care of them -- was very hot summertime and she was trying to wrangle them as they tried to wander away
rats, gotta go... see you all later. (-:
speaking of the canines, they need to go out--BBL! :-)
I must say that my lentil soup turned out very well.
hiya peri
hi, Takuma
yum, peri
would you like some, dc?
there are 3 re8. I have one. I take an exam again (pt) help with the others pls
*to take an exam*
to send on a different route.
thanks gramma
And a type of doctor ----
io6 please?
not getting the doctor clue
not a full doctor yet....but out of med school
peri- you are a re****** of your city
IO + a homonym to kick the bucket
aha, got it thanks
there are 4 re8
..back after a phone call
not getting the drop the bucket part
to expire, pass away
kick not drop
trying combos but no working it out
io + anagram of di4...UK spelling of what is done to salt
that did it thanks
you're not alone, ruru -- it sounds like it should be a great clue, but I'm not getting it either
I have been struggling with finishing that dumb I for way too long
oops -- I thought you were talking about the re- clue
anyone clue me on the second ex.. I can't find that one either
ex6 force to do work
ruru and Takuma think of table salt but British spelling
don't have any ex's
thanks got them
heh -- I got the io- (good clue!); I was referring to the "kick the bucket" I just lost the chat thread. ;)
kick the bucket, pass on... the di4 that io end is the anagram of
I'll get it eventually -- just suffering from mid-day word blindness
thanks!
ai6 clue please?

ai or al?
ai6 is what I need
ai 6 is more oxegen
ai + not work
TY, Peri
ai + take a nap
A's are axed!
that i in the 5th column sucks
peri, your fourth re8 builds off of the re 5/10 just above it -- would have never found it by thinking..I monkeyed it
just greyed it moments after complaining
hey, ruru, I gave the same clue
I found all the re8, thanks, used morewords
that was all I could think of.. GMTA pe4
could someone clue the t's in the 5th column?
:-)
I need a break. BBL
later, scrabbs
at 7, please?
at7 affects the cardio-pulmonary system, and is not unlike a natural spring
he 7 after stolen?
jane, i have one from there, but i'm not sure which
past tense, ruru
Time for me to take a break from taking a break and get back to work for awhile. Good luck all!
I have that the he 7 after that
harp, if you're sad, you shed a te4
te6-to****, a nd te8 on the edge, almost falling
if you're losing your balance on the highwire, you might te6
ty
one who lost her balance could be said to have te8 on the brink of disaster
yup, that's pretty much the dilemma dc
thanks fuquay
could use help with o's. Have the theaters, the poems, and the one who writes the poems
ah, and now the legal term. just need the last one. someone tell me how many letters? please?

pe+ a word to the w***
ty, grant
la 8 please?
yw
thanks
la 8 -- one who strings the shoestrings and blondie: the ***e is high
blondie?
my, that's an odd one. ty, br
ty, babrab
the singer, nan
got it! -- there's a singer called blondie? -- I thought she was dagwood's wife! --- wrong generation, I guess!
one of each, nan :)
I no both, Blondie is a punk rock singer
debra harry is the singer
not really puck rock
indeed so, babrab
wow, sometimes, I wonder about myself
I think dc means the group Blondie, lead singer Debbie Harry, who had a hit in the 80s called "The T*** is High"
well not out there punk rock, but I still think punk
indeed, metfan - pop culture and my brain do not get along well :)
oh well,-- have never really listened to any kind of rock other than rock n'roll -- no punk, pink, heavy or metal for me!
They were punk, but when it hit the mainstream, it was co-opted as "new wave"
i wouldnt classify Blondie as remotely punk myself..always liked Debbie Harry
may I have a clue for et6/18
I have still been unsuccessful in finding any e words from the 3 lower E's
poetic word for lasting forever. add a vowel to the beginning and end of the seabird
I'm all about pop culture from my own time, dc, what I don't get is today's - it seems so aimless....
thank you
i just have no memory for it, i'm not opposed to it. There's certain types of associations my brain just does not remember
those first 3 ne's have me stumped
actors and singers being among them
Point well taken....
phand, think of the spooky halloween word, and make it more so and more so
found the ne 5
hi guys
OK, My husband said Blondie would be more New Wave than punk, so I guess I was wrong.
thnx, Fuquay
hi kje
pretty kitty fuq
ne 8-9 combo, please?
wont be the last time I am wrong; I'm wrong on a regular basis
ne + acid-base measure + **** of passage
then plural
yes, that kitty is a sweetie
I am never wroing phan - LOL
yes, she's my sweet Kimba. frequently holding me to the chair when babbling
oops - meant wrong - rofl
so how is this one today?
As Mrs. Slocombe would say, Nice pussy....
weed!!!
ha ha that's funny KJE
hi kje! have a good time last night?
got the ending kje, just have to figure out what an acid-based measure is!
mmm ... yes... have no desire for the date today though... must decide how to end it
re 8 -- add a jeweled headdress: ***a; and extreme anger: l*v*d
think digraph that makes f sound Cybernan
acid-base scale may be a better clue
oh dear! which one is today?
inventor past NRA guy
ahhhh
think acid base ** balanced
ty, br. never would have found taht
got it -- ty
Good clue, kje
someone clued it earlier as most of your neice's brother + **** of passage
your can talk about Heller and the implications of the ban on assault weapons
most of the son of a sib
I was close, BR! ;)
he is a nice guy, weed... just very different than my world... there is a little oppsoites attarct thing going on, but that is not sustainable, so should end it
that must be the sucky part of the whole dating thing
BR - no way would i ever argue weapons with this guy... he would trounce me
(((kje))) *back to lurk mode*
last ne clue please?
wha? where? was that a stid sneaking in?
yes, the sucky part is saying this won't work
he no doubt would want to frisk you for concealed weapons
LOLOL BR... ummm, not going there
you could always tell him that you've gone out on a date with him and someone else and at this point you're interested in pursuing something with the other...
hi weed ;)
Hi everyone :-)
hi stid! never knew stid to lurk... so disappointed
hi Blue
i am a woose pini

hint for si6, pls?

Hahaha... didn't the mice in movie "Babe" sing Blue Moon too?
huh. alby's bigger again
never saw babe
it's always kind of shocking ho fast small mammals grow
pregnant bigger?
oh, just bigger
oh kje if you're an animal person, you'd LOVE it
what's alby?
no, just growing up, Alabaster - Alby - is a 5 mo old male kitten
not sure about that - never a fan of all animal pics talkies kinda thingamajigs
well, no worries about preggers than, dc - LOL
the lion king
indeed not, and he gets snipped next month
Ratatouille was charming
awwwwww i'll bet he is a handful at five months, dc :-)
*ducking* lion king was OK, didn't love it
i tried to get into Ratatoulle, but I just couldn't for some reason
OMG rataouille creeped me out!!!!! the rats streaming out of the walls in that ladies house!!! I completely creeped!
if only he'd stop climbing the bookshelves as if they were ladders, blue :)
phantom: predator
i used to keep rats as pets, but i can see that reaction, kje
they aren't ladders?...
Haha dc... but they're CLEARLY put there for his climbing pleasure, why else would they be there?
oh kje, nick's doing much better. never ended up taking him in, as the office was actually closed yesterday. however, as he was laying on his back hollering at one point today, i looked in his mouth and saw the source of most of his fussiness this week! and clinginess, and off and on fevers. two teeth up on top.
LOL kje
I know zabeth, I keep trying priest too
oh, good to know feather
is nick your son, feather?
i had an incident in baltimore when they gutted a row house down the line from me and I was sitting there one evening and 8-10 mice ran across my living room floor... I had nightmares

huh. it won't take ro6ia

brb
i like eclectic musicians usually
ooooh i've heard this before, but not sure where... YEAH i like it, kje, thanks! I bet they're awesome live too
Schottische In Texas, from the album: Johnny Horton 1956-60 is a nice change of pace
man i haven't seen a good band live in so long....
glad you like it blue... if you like him, you'd like brett dennen
sorry - organizing my itunes, so have music on the mind
like, a good funky jammy folkie small venue have a good local beer on tap dance until long after they stop serving band
my itunes library is ridiculously humongous
don't apologize, kje... keep the suggestions rolling, they're all great :-)
i digitized my massive cd collection a few years ago and have been an internet bandit since the beginning
that sounds fun blue... those places are harder and harder to find
157 pics uploading now
me too josh - the fun thing about going through it is i keep saying....oooo - had forgotten all about THAT one... too much stuff
OK, hold a sec blue and will get you a dennen link
i'm glad you bugged me about it kje, i've been needing to do it for a while! now i need to go work on my bedroom. it's a disaster.
i know... and i just moved out here and don't know ANYPLACE like that, nor do i have a "crew" of friends out here to have those nights out like i used to... but thats okay, i'll live vicariously through you and your itunes :-)
sigh. good friends were back at hospital today to deal with her mother. i guess today was final paperwork. :(
if i just pressed play and let itunes go on as long as it wanted playing all my tracks back to back, it would play for 8 days shy of 6 months before it played all the files
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F58TfYH qLak
oh no dc... i'm really sorry
what are you doing out there blue? wyoming right?
sad DC
ty, blue, she'd been unwell for a while, and they turned off the respirator yesterday.
*poke* kje, see how many i've got to upload?
yep... I moved out here last June, my boyfriend has had a great job out in a tiny tiny little mountain town for a while now, and we finally decided that living more than 2,000 miles apart wasn't working for us anymore
oh that's rough dc
dc, i can't imagine what having to make that decision must have been like... i'm so sorry
what does he do, blue?
wow, blue, big change to WY, no?
hello all. could i get a clue for the ce7, please?
ce 6 -- add a **** of passage; pl
ty, babrab :)
oh weed!!! you should listen to that paolo nutini song!!! made me think of you and hubby's comment about your shoes : )
thx, BR. monkeyed every which way that one.
these re words are killin me!!!
huh. that re8 is interesting-looking
he's a wildlife biologist; works for a small company creating digital maps and doing field surveys, and he was just promoted to "project manager... he's got that "dream job", you know? He gets to go out on horseback in the mesa scouting wildlife habitats, and his company was just hired to do a black-footed ferret survey, which is exciting
ah, it's the latin plural of an re7: was a Roman gladiator who fought with equipment styled on that of a fisherman
dc is it formed from the re 6 before it?
cool blue - I dated a wildlife biologist for a while - his thing was ducks... kind of a lonley life though
no, kaz
how nifty, blue, sounds like woderful work
haha dc - a HUGE change... i've been an east-coast girl my whole life, and moved out here after spending 7 years living on the shore of lake champlain by the ADK "mountains"... nothing compared to where I live here...
re 6 --- add exam; pt
mmmm - lake champlain... chocolate
that part of NY is beautiful. i've never been to VT.
Yeah, kje... before he worked for this company, his jobs were mostly seasonal and solitary, camping in lean-tos in the back woods for weeks on end...
re 6 --- where you live; re 8 --- the one living there
dc, I miss it so much; if you have a chance, you should definitely go, especially in fall
can I have help with the si6/21 not seeing it thanks
yep... that is what this guy did too... decided it was too solitary and started looking for other work
br can u clue the first re 8 please?
kje, i've heard that song too, it's so catchy! I think i've had it stuck in my head before, really peppy :-)
re 8 --- to examine a witness you called again (as opposed to cross examine)
cute song kje! ok, really MUST go now....
ty was trying to make that way harder than it should have been!
okay, all, I gotta run too... kje, thx for the music suggestions!

speaking of heresy, bebeloglyphic is not in the grid either
neither is predicate
sadly not, babrab
or secret...
probably because there isn't a "b" in a grid
help with first de7 pls
Mr Morton is the subject of the sentence, and what the predicate says he does, Mr Morton walk, Mr Morton Talks, Mr Morton loves.

Hi, lynxxx
you try to help people out and ...
"where the lights are gay and the sun shines daily on the mountaintop"

well us old farts have to make sure our memories are intact....
DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY O!
rofl
my mother sends us money every now and then. we think she does it so we will feel guilty if we question her senility....
yay harpjane :)
i am being attacked by teeny kittens! they want to chase my fingers as the type!
harp, i like your icon! and hello everyone, back to tackle more of the grid
aw that is so cute!
awww, cute, Trif. My old cat is sleeping, as usual
here, throw some soup on them.....
thanks brookie
hi Brookie
Hi, Brookie, Trif!
there, dishes done and soup heating
wb Brookie
seain! *hugs*
Hi, dc!
hi DC
what should i do with my left over chicken?
hello again all, back after studio work (46F down there today) and grocery store trip
hi fuquay
Hi, fuquay
eat it, harp
hi Fuqua
make soup from it
make chicken salad
going to make some egg salad, bbs
sorry, disappeared there for a few - one of the teenies jumped on the keyboard and closed babble. horrors!
add cream, and make savory chicken pancakes
well i just made 12 quarts of soup so i was hoping for something else
just back from my sister's place. Visit went marvellous, her kids and ours got along great and even her hub and mine could relate.
chop it up, and envelop them in canned crescent dough triangles, brush w/egg white and bake
*hugs the sprite*
salad sounds good, or maybe a fajita type casserole?
wow, sprite that is really a blessing!
ok no soup then. Make a good sandwich of it?
That's wonderful, sprite...
do i want toast with my cream of corn soup, or crouton?
i'd recommend adding a touch of mayo, some cheese and chopped broccoli to the chicken before rolling them in the dough
Sprite, so glad to hear!
crouton
that sound really great
truly wonderful Sprite
parmesan cheese in the dough would be really nice
yes it is :) My sis cried from happiness. I was close to doing the same. Not ever gonna let her go again!
would someone mind running to the store to get me some dough?
yummm that sounds tasty!
had you not seen her in a while, then sprite?
phantom latrine
for over 10 years, Trif. Family troubles.
This has been quite the week for family reunions among my friends. I'm so thrilled that yours is under happy circemstances, sprite!
then it is a double blessing, isn't it?
it's so wonderful you could reunite, sprite
absolutely :)
seain: were other friends of yours less lucky? Worse circumstances?
one friend has her sisters talking to her only because their mother died yesterday. We fully expect that her sisters will not talk to her again, or at least for years, after this, since they've barely talked to her for the last decade anyway.
ick - castaway is on, and tom hanks is about to knock his own tooth out.....focus on the grid, focus on the grid...
that is so sad, seain :(
Trif: keep looking at those yellow tiles...
okay, sprite, it is safe now
ah goody Trif.
we're proud of you, trif, for your focus :-)
still not exactly whipping through the words though...this is a slow one, isn't it?
I agree, Trif. Not as bad as yesterday's, but slow.
this one started fast, but is ending slo, trif
very slow trif *plods along*
yes, i have 148 words left
also, it's a little hard to concentrate when my little one is playing... he tends to whine while he plays
who directed castaway, ron howard?
My husband thinks looking at Lickety is cheating. What is the consenus here?
Hi Sprite, just changed icon for tomorrow. Reading back in chatline - so happy for you that things went well with your sister - hope this is the beginning of a very lasting friendship.
robert zemeckis directed
at7?
when I started, I was told that looking up the actual words is cheating. All the rest is research.
your husband should mind his own business
thanks brooke
yw
thanks flosey! I have the feeling it is. Did you get some more sleep this morning?
putting answers in the chog is cheating otherwise everyone has their own definition of success!
NOT cheating!
lol harpjane :)
I couldn't finish the grid without Lickety!
some people think asking for clues is cheating
yes I did, and hour and half
not cheating
or "spelling" the answers is cheating
would he rather you spent all day babbling, or a reasonable amount of time, using the list?
*an hour and a half, Sprite,
ah good flosey, at least some more then.
what is cheating depends on how each person looks at babble
i almost start using lickety after the first pass-through
at7: at + holy mother the*****
babble gives you the opportunity to learn new words, so there are different ways you can learn them, and the list is one
ah, and Ata is the one who told me about the research!
indeed, brookie
was I? aren't I clever!!
and i concur, ata
you can only cheat your own standards in babble
Clever Ata!
you most certainly are, Ata.
off now to make lunch and then out to enjoy this gorgeous sunshine, bb for flip
njoy, flosey :)
bye flosey, have a great day
Bye, flosey
see ya, flosey
bye flosey!
the tic-toc of the toaster oven toasting is so soothing :)
happy sounds, seain
the purring of silyclaws is so soothing
oh, yes ata!
i agree, ata! I have the two teenies asleep on my lap now, purring like craaaazy
she's purring and purring and purring
awwwww
so cute
hi all!
I have NO "y" words. Any hints, please?
If you use Lickety then you are solving Lickety, you are not solving Babble. Not my definition of success at solving Babble's grid using Babble's sparse clues.
la8?
brookie, matchmaker
Hi, nrkii

thank you ;)
pini, have you ever played Killer Bunnies?
fully, Killer Bunnies and the Search for the Magic Carrot
you know, i shouldn't complain about having Ken in my life, but it sure makes these lazy sundays where I enjoy big grids more difficult, less lazy, and actually a bit frenetic
no, haven't heard of it...
well, Dorens, everything is a tradeoff
as a vampire bunny, you may want to :)
how can I be missing EIGHT 8s? *cringe*
i was at that point before i slept, ata, you will prevail
as Barbie already found out, even Kens have their price.
same here, Ata, eight 8's missing - care to share? I have: la 8, ne8, re8 x 2

thanks, yall
the Ps were trying, indeed
Still 115 to go, but I have all afternoon....
they're still trying
Help for the first pe5, please?
i don't think they're trying hard enough (to be found that is)
oh god, i just got a re8 with a truckload of vowels
latin for feet?
Jellen, looks like a word that is short for medicine for children
like the children's ward at the hospital, Jellen
he "pe5" his bills
trying to be elusive
Jellen, like the pod veggie, poetic, but spelt differently
oh, first, that was 2nd. maybe i should go do the recycling :)
Thanks fuquay and dc

Hi, Andree
hi andree and congrats to josh!
Australia day today so a public hol and no work yay
might even get to finish
This grid is not very nice, IMHO.
it's a big bear, all right
I'm resorting to morewords, because my brain is fogged in...
happy to clue if you want help
me too, jellen, me too
morewords is my best friend today.
Oh, goody! ai 6/18, please?
nm, found it...
that's a bogus one, jellen, isn't it?
share the love, ladies...please?
Think so, too
if you have the ai5, trif, make it superlative
al7's, both?
Hey EB...I gave Mom the teacher's manual for SS class. You have the last lesson in the book and the game "cards" are in the large "ziploc" in the cabinet in my classroom.
changed, and the one who did it
hey kad - thanks.
Thanks, fuquay
not helping me, fuq - there are several ai 5s
Hey, Trif, how is aknitter doing?
I would feel pretty shitty should my selfish desire for a bag of nuts killed my co worker.
haven't heard today, jellen, but I got your note, thanks!
Beg pardon, spatial?
trif, start with what you breathe,then add superlative ending
EB....it's the stuff we breath only make it superlative
er5/12 please
GOT it - I had the wrong ending - I keep thinking superlative is -ier
btw, kad, making a smoke shoulder right now - isn't that your fave?
standing upright, andree
thx fuq
ce 5/12, the second?
all the re's are making me feel like a re6
Are you making it for yourself? My fave is the ham salad you make with the leftovers and split pea soup.
ce+***dmama was here earlier
yes, I am. The kids might want some later, who know? Primo and Tori went to outback with friends, Sec and Ter are at youth group
Thanks, fuquay
et6 please
There is no youth group tonight.
and ne9 - I can't make it *tears hair out*
man, the us figure skating championships are on, and the men are just falling flat on their as6s. over and over
We shut that off EB and are watching a moving starring "Dwight."
it's a really hard word, ata! Think of the egyptian queen
et6 is a poetic forever
but change the last two letters
et6= poetic word for lasting forever. put a vowel on the beginning and end of a gull-like bird
oh, is is the one where he is a rock guy?
Ya...but what about youth group?
what about it? I am picking the girls up in about 15 mins
ata, it's the plural of the ne8 before it. the jade that sounds kidney-ish
omg I'm being stupid, I already had the single *sigh*
Did Sarah miss one?
sounds like a kidney disease ata, it is some kind of stone i think
I was reading my list wrong and trying to make it from the geeks
goodness, ata, did you forget to eat today? You are being so hard on yourself!
thx fuq
BTW I applied for a job yesterday
la 6/18, the last?
oh, sorry! not youth group, confirmation. my bad. You DID - what kind of job?????
i didnt' know the pussycat cinemas was hiring, ha ha ha
A legal dept of a company in Rockland
la6= la+a ****d is a group of three
do you want to work there? you love bill so much....
thanks varina! good one....
Thanks, fuquay
ne 5/10?
Nm....found it
Thomas Jefferson was a de***. sub the ne for the de. no idea what it means, not in any dictionary I could find
back for more punishment...
It's f-t EB
Thanks, fuquay
maybe it's someone who believes in the new?
I think with 125 to go it is reasonable to list...
wb, stid
ugh. Well, if you want it, I hope you get it.
thomas jefferson was a what?
will certainly go a lot faster that way, stid
No choice in the matter love
de6/12, someone who believes in a god, in sort of a vague way
*5/12, that is
ne + DaVinci was an art***
oh, okay. gotta go pick up the warrior twins, be back later, but, with 63 to finish and a grid made of sludge, I doubt I will finish!
yes, that's a better clue, Jellen
Drive safely love

ce6= the breath mints, but with a two-letter plural
how about you? are the bunnies all okay?
scrab--drop 2nd vowel of last one then plural
AT 7 please?
TY for ce6 #3!
The bunnies are doing well--all quite cute!
talked to your uncle briefly this afternoon, scrabs, he says they are all well. I think he is enjoying watching the youngest grandkids grow... something I think he missed a lot of when his own children were that age.
Don't have the pe 6/21, harp...
He sent me an Xmas card and I need to be polite and write back.
I need to get off my sizable duff and get those new years cards finished... LOL don't feel guilty scrabs, he knows you are insanely busy.
at + fre**** (flower?)
No, that's wrong.

That's so cool, stid and Scrabbler!
clues for the Y words...I have the two matchmaker ones
yes, it is cool. babble ROCKS!
ya5/16 is like Olde Englishe lord of the manor
Yep, I saw the prefix "Stid" and then asked if her last name was Stid______.
did you plural the matchmaker?
there are two spelling variants of the matchmaker, plus a plural
EN 6 the first please?
en6 complete, the whole thing
and I politely asked her to finish the conversation by email... though now the kids are a little older I am less uptight about putting our name in the chog
en + shoe**** (tie them)
thanks!!
oops, didn't have that one
It was my first time in a chat room so I didn't understand proper etiquette (protection of identity and privacy).
What is the matchmaker word?
I'm in the middle of the RE's...will to go on is flagging...
ty

Aha, OK, I have the di6 now I will get the di9!

Guten Abend, Inge. Have you seen the movie, "Vitus"? It is in German and I just started watching it but I cannot chat and read subtitles.

hey mom, here's something to look forward to - when my boy was about 12, I found that he hoarded a bunch of my glamour magazines in his room, under his bed in a box. It was SO funny! I asked him about them,and he said he was looking for christmas presents for me....ha ha ha
ec 5/12, Pini?
Is the hampster cooking or in a bedroom exploded with other stuff?
all I could thinkwas "i am george constanza's mother..." remember HIM and his mom's glamour?
DQ is good but too far away for us country dwellers.
oh man trif....I'm not ready for that yet
are there 2 ec's?
ready or not, mom, here it comes!
Nope...must be an ee then
LOL stidg- he was probably an uncooked meal for our daschund
Mom, we had friends move form Kentucky to Nebraska into a newly built house. Son's hamster escaped into heating ducts and SMELLED awful. They got a different house from the builder, since he thoguht it was his fualt
I think I have all the haunted stuff...
et6...Pini
wow Inge- that would be my luck
my mom's house is spook central
The grid has been less attractive than the griddle today so I am off and will start again next week. Oh, that's tomorrow. Good by all. Hampster meal for daschunds...sounds like the recall will be in the works soon. No more hampster paste added to enrich flavours.
et6= poetic forever
et 6 means forever

never had kids...

well i know how she feels mag, i am not looking forward to the big event
(I sure wish the "after-hours clinic" was open on the weekends)
but you know, she 70 and looks and acts like she is 50, so I don't know what she is complaining about
pini- is this her first?
it is, mag
I'll swap with her! 45 & feel 70
(I didn't have any symptoms, so I can't help her out with the "been there, done that" kinda thing)
If she has more than a little discomfort, she should probably call her doctor. Better safe than sorry.
we are only as old as we feel and i often have to remind myself how old i am
pini, no matter how bad her cramps get, DO NOT let her use a heating pad, or hot water bottle.
first time makes you a lot more nervous about things, but if she can get a call in to her doc, I would
She knows not to apply heat, Trif...
okay pini, that is good. is she taking plenty of fluids?
it will help to ease her mind and that is what she is paying him for
is the First DE5 a fish?
trif is right- dehydration can cause the cramping
de + what we breathe
Trif--what's going on?
I'll pass that along too (all of the suggestions)

FranMag left Babble and became a facebook addict.
red, you can start, but I don't think you will finish
hello madi
matter of time, I'm sure..after seeing a woman named Smurfette on People's Court, I now know any name is possible
red, pull up lickety and look - just look - at the re's. that will decide it for you.
I think if I use the list I might have a shot...
No, red, just chat. How was your weekend?
I wondered where fran had got to! and twitter, don't forget twitter...
I'm over on fb; but I can't find many others there
http://www.facebook.com/apps/applicati on.php?id=2415325843
Go Red Go!!
definitely*
I worked, was offerred a research job...Actually ran to the ICU this am, and am a bit tired....oh forgot I also oriented someone...
hi Red
oh -- just finally understood jellens clue *sigh* I shan't finish today probably...
I don't do Twitter yet.
hi all, how are we enjoying this 282-word playpen?
well other than THAT Red....
you can find me, nef! LOL "stidmama"...
I think twitter is sort of not as interesting as people say...
oriented them to person, place and time?
we used to have a kid in school named "adam baum" I thought that was about as bad a name as you could get. And my english friend went to school with someone named Attacta Cox
hi madi
MAD MEN!!! YAY!!!!
oh gwen, this is a pen all right, pen-itentiary!
Oriented someone? Did you reset their inner compass?
clue for di7,32 please?
ah, Tom and the boys are home now.
I tried...
sorry...Attracta Cox
why are the men mad, tri?
i'm loving twitter, the more i use it the more i find. just yesterday i added a ton of professional cyclists....lance armstrong, george hincapie, ivan basso, etc. i can't wait for the tour, it will be fun with being able to see what they all say!
Cool app, Feather
Hello Stid family
they are mad with joy, as they just won an award
ah, I see! good for them.
red, it all depends on who you find to follow
and the house ceases to be quiet and calm...
faith, journals
I frankly guess I am not that interested in people....
ah..ty!
lol, this coming from a nurse!
need the RE 7 after the words related to "lease a house"
she got into nursing for the paperwork ;)
I think I did. All I like to do is chart and stick people.
well red, perhaps a job nursing for hermits would be more to your liking?
more lease of the house, stid. it's a stoopid one
coma ward?
re7 lease a house more
Trying to help people can be an overwhelming profession--I never knew there were so many difficult and crazy people that become parents.
hey i resemble that!
you become crazy, scrabs. this kids do it to you! lol
become a social worker...see a client for 2 minutes, write a book about them
I think most nurses after a while start to not love people.
As a teacher, I found that to be true as well, Scrabs.
as a teacher you get interesting insights into parents also
scrabbler my cousin... don't you know sane people can't become parents? it's the LAW. only people with delusions of grandeur think they can parent successful, healthy, happy children...
lol, great minds bea
=)
it must be hard to deal with, Scrabbler..the most important job in the world and anyone can become a parent
i think that's true of all the professions that work with people. after 30 years of counseling, i mostly wanted to tell people to take their whiney butts somewhere else.
oh! got the "more lease" word. thanks!
oh teachers have it even worse, I think
not true krista, anyone can become a biological unit.
my last three RE words: the last two RE 8 and the 6/18 before one of them... *please please*
that's how I was feeling the last year on the job, lbd...felt like telling them.."you think YOU have problems..."...right, parent as in sperm/egg donors
re...examined again
teachers can really screw a kid up. and so can the people who do hair LOL
re6= re + not front or back
or it should be 'exams again;
AHA! phaeton, you are a MOST EXCELLENT cluer!
re8, one who lives in a place, take exam again,
now I just need the last RE 8
Stid, think school.
re...princess crown...end in two vowels
re + emanined
past tense of the take exam again, stid
Ignore that last...

VERY fishy. firewords
phae, list is updated.
2nd ye5?
Yay, stid!!!

dr5,16 please?
thank you lbd!
thx faith
not as wet forward
not wetter, but dr***, faith
yeah stid!!!!
dr5= not the washer
or what you use to get clothes unwet
and though I know it is tough on teachers and doctors... I will push and show up and just nag until I get the information I need. When it comes to the kids. For my own behalf, not so much.
It sure is challenging to communicate with worried or angry or sad people.
center column toast!
dr 5 is the OTHER side of the mountains... we are wetter...
go pini go!
that is a dr5,12 - I need the 16
and as a doc that's about all you get to communicate with, yes?
bbiab!
please may I ahve a clue for the first te 6, 21
at least teachers sometimes have parents who show up because things are going okay...
later phaeton! thanks again!
fbf, use the sometimes vowel in the middle
never mind - figured out what you all were saying - a little slow here!
tri: shipworm
People come to my office because they have needs--a form, a note for their boss, a diversion from their life, and maybe even a sick kid.
te 6/21: te + color + round vowel
go forward go! (sounds better than go backward....)
Speaking of slow, I'm back - Can anyone clue p[lease the ec5?
hello metfan
thanks, I ALWAYS forget that one!
2nd ye5? Did I miss that clue?
Hi, stiddy
Hi MetFan
ec + the march hare said, "I'm l**e!"
scrab- same as the first, end with a different vowel
second ye 5 like the first differnt last vowel
or what my twin magmom said
NM, I figured it otu
btw magmom, checked out your websites... pretty slick!
last tr6 please?
GMTA stid!
en5/10?
TY stiddy, I always forget that one!
en 5/10: en + spanish aunt
tr + s***r (sibling)
Do u have any munchausen mamas, Scrabbs?
i am vanishing---have a great night/day
sweet dreams pam! (((hugs))) be well!
Bye, pam
en5, to go in
Bye Pam
night Pam, sleep well
she doesn't need any in her practice, krista, she has a munchausen cousin.. rofl
*snapping rubber bands at kids so they get kinks in their necks*
lol..i've had so many doctors ask me if I am a nurse or other medical professional..i just tell them, no, professional hypochondriac, thanks
I kept wanting "predatory" to work in the grid...
i want "predicate" to work, stid
*grin* yes, but have you noticed how people take you so much more seriously if you throw in a bit of medicalese?
I've tried testicle
i want throat warbler mangrove
oh, how was it, mag? steamed or broiled?
thx stid
re8/40 please
rofl... LOVE that sketch, gwen!
E's done
inthe grid, I should clarify that
the medicalese only works if spoken properly....testi-kleee definitely doesnt work...
ok got it
A large percentage of moms have Munchausen by proxy syndrome. And many teenage girls have Munchausen syndrome. i am serious.
H's done
Scrabbler, I have a health question for you...
re 5 before it, andree, then letter before s followed by double vowel
i believe it, scrabs
EWW and LOL MagMom
I have a few problems, but thankfully Munchausen's isn't one of them LOL
Go ahead, Jellen.
Can one have pleurisy without having another illness?
Red..rofl...
rofl... this is so much fun!
thx stid
lbd, it is sad for the many kids that are brought to the doc's office repeatedly, for every minor issue, or when te**s are done.
what was that from Gwen and Stid...did not ring a comedy bell, here
but... I really do need to finish reading. So... off I go. back later to help clue if I can.
take care stid!
last la6/18 plz?
Hm, let me think about that, Jellen. Usually pleurisy is secondary to penumonia.
Monty Python, krista, sketch where man's name was something like john smith, but he pronounced it throat warbler mangrove.
*poof*
still 72 to go and I feel like I have been working on this since the dawn of time
you could get costochondritis after a small viral infection.....
That's what I thought...having some symptoms...really don't want to wait too long again...
same here, magmom...71 left
i sometimes think my mother had it..she was a nurse...but i think she overreacted to a lot..had more to do with anxiety than MBP though, prob
(fake snooty british accent: "it's *spelled* luxury yacht but it's *pronounced* throat warbler mangrove"
Chest pain has many causes, Jellen.
LOL, Gwen
Usually Krista, we nurses dont pay any attention until our family member is like, bleeding out on the floor!
deet
re
OH! Monty Python! I miss that.
OOPS! sorry, going to penalty box for cookies now
hello again. back to finish last 1/2 don't know if I will finish though...
want cookies.
There are many mothers that are in our office at least once weekly with one or more of their kids, and they also call frequently. But that also reflects that pediatricians are mostly co-parents and parent psychologists than physicians.
last ne8?
Go phandmd!
thats what I heard, Red, lol...not in my house
Thanks, Scrabbler...
most of brothers son + a religious ceremony is the ne 8
ne8 is a plural
that's the first, isn't it, ru?
the second one is a plural of the ne 6
oooh, got it
I hear of many parents being diagnosed with "pleurisy" and I think it is an impressive term rather than being told "You have musculoskeletal chest pain due to coughing."
ne + cons + birds (ducks)
ne6= ne + **ad a book + **entification card
ti6 please?
last la6/18 plz?
I have had pleurosy before and it is very painful
layered, scrabs
No coughing, just started having pain on one side...
past tense of the previous ti4 scrabs
More than msuculoskeletal pain, right, Red?
Hi - all!
la + 3 + first vowel
Wasn't that easy, you doofus, Scrabbler. Clearly I gave up too soon.
does it hurt when you breathe jellen
hi buzzy
That name look familiar...
thank you! L's done
yes.
It's not bad, ruru, but yes...
I had pleurisy years ago. It wasnt secondary to anything. It was painful but cleared up quickly with medication.
i thought pleurosy was an infection?
is it a sharp pain in one area
1st ne5/10?
isn't it a patch of bacteria on the lining of the lung?
ne+ make a f***, closed hand
N's done
you should see a doctor then jellen.. before it becomes worse
go pini!
oooh, time for the dead reel! always a highlight
Yeah, I think I will, ruru...
what is the last AI4?
i had a nodule in my pleura a few years ago..they thought it was lung cancer scared the tar out of me
i am tarless now
ai+ triple slice
I think it always comes with pneumonia no>?
good to hear, krista...being tarless
yeah krista a great habit to beat
Many causes, Ruru
web md says it can be a viral onfection of the pleura, lining of the lung
sounds like a round of anti-biotics are heading jellen's way...
ooh..that would have been a great anti-smoking pun..didnt mean it that way..i'm going to start smoking then quit so i can use that one
te8 please, and the te6 right before it?
didn't know Mr. Bentley from The Jefferson's had died
just pretend, krista. healthier for you
like a see saw scrabs and past tense
did you know they are selling candy cigarettes again?!
it was quite a while ago, wasn't it MagMom?
oh creepy
scrabs, te***** totter, then past tense
really? krista?
TY for te6 and 8--how did I miss those?
did u know (listen to me with all the "did u knows")..that Roxy Roker on the Jeffersons is Lenny Kravitz' mother?
i liked the chocolate ones. the sugar ones were gross
That piece is always my favorite EB
I bought bubble gum cigarettes for the kids Christmas stockings. They know they are the only king of cigarettes that will ever touch their lips LOL
yep...have seen them in 3 or so stores now..couldnt believe it..i loved those things when i was a kid..it's a wonder i didnt smoke
wait,,,,no heath ledger in the dead reel??? did he die in 2007?
2008, Trif
no, he died last Jan...I didn't see him
That must mean he's going to win and they will do a special montage then
Last te6?
one who takes the exam, scrabs
Maybe he was in the screen actor's guild reel last year, then....
brb
Ah, TY, lbd. I was trying various endings and male seed producers, without success.
oh, kadresa..bet you are right
LBD, thanks for that AI clue
lol, male seed producers!
nope, I just checked on youtube - he died before the awards aired last year, and they aired him in that reel
yw, phan
PG rating
My house goes on the market this week....
yahoo Red!!
good luck, red. hope it sells quickly and for what you want
si6 please?

other actors have done so
I know that's what I mean, they'll show it then
more of the lease, wv
See...he won!
TY for si6--weird one!!
well now I am going to cry
no, no, no memorial reel now. he was in the reel shown last year, because he died just before the show went to air
st6, 7, and 7 please?
Will is daughter get the award?
just stopping by to say hi
red, I started a Scramble game with you. It is your turn
it must be so weird for his family, that he is winning all these awards for the role that literally drove him to the grave, he was so stressed out over it
thnks ibd
probably she will, kad, yes
st5.12 + sometimes vowel for the 6, past tense of the next 5 and one who does the st5
or maybe his agent, who knows.
that let me finish ll of the RE words - have to celebrate small steps
well done, wv!
brad pitt is deeeelicious
i'd like to see the movie, just to see him (batman)...the clips i have seen were great
TY, dawg--clearly I am NOT seeing obvious words. Toss a boatload of fish toward me.
i really don't give a rat's hat about the batman movies, but yeah, it would be good to see heath, i guess
I must admit he looks pretty dishy
I always lusted after Heath, I must admit.
down Scrabbler
At 226/56 I have had enough of this grid!
100 to go, gotta eat, BBL i hope
I just hit half way.
Cold shower for Scrabbler!
Heath melted my butter

Great phrase, magmom!
That's an expression that I will use again!
did you finish lbd?
mine, kad?
Good night all. I will see you tomorrow!
Bye Gwen, enjoy

I think I might finish this grid yet? 134 left.
OMG did he just say that????
missed it - what did he say?
He made mention of the "package" on the statute
Misspelled that but you get my drift
I watched part of the Duggar marathon while I was babbling this AM.....how can they think they are giving each of those children the attention they need?
wow, that's class
I just find the wedding wierd, I think theres a lot that goes on in the duggar household that isnt on television...
i can't imagine how they can expect that poor couple to go from no kissing to well, wedding night, in one day.
I think they can handle that Trif...
We gotta go see this movie EB
well, clearly red - they do have the 18 kids. when do they find the time?
trif- they will be in for a BIG surprise
i saw it already, kad
Did you like it? Mom saw it yesterday and she told me many times how much she loved it.
and what's with the girls having to wear skirts all the time? what is so unholy about pants?
yes, I liked it a lot, but it is hard to watch - right up there with the kite runner
I have no idea myself....
pants suggest that you have legs...and well....

you do use the 5 as a basis for the 8, tho, pini :)
try adding Mr. Onassis's first name & double the last vowel
I just realized (again) that I'm nearly a month behind in changing icons. :sigh:
that re6 7 would be re +si4 and then the past tense
