who's gone?
Professor Peter Boyd's engagement to the Dean's daughter is upset by the revelation that his father was a habitual convict. To prove the Dean's genetic theory of inherited traits as wrong, Boyd starts a 'secret' experiment. He borrows the science department's chimpanzee with the goal of showing that it is one's environment that affects your reaction to right and wrong. Written by Richard Stephens {richards@metronet.com} Prof. Peter Boyd is engaged to brainy dean's daughter Valerie. But the Dean wants the engagement ended when he finds that Peter's father was a crook. To prove that environment is more important than heredity, Peter adopts lab chimp Bonzo and vows to "teach this monkey the difference between right and wrong." He hires young nursemaid Jane Linden to "mother" Bonzo; but will Valerie understand if she finds Jane about the house?

We spent two friggin hours in court today, just to be told to go home cause the idiots didn't have their evidence put together the right way... we were ready, the other party was not!

gee thx MrP!
ewww
Ewwww...
hi back again Mari you still here?
OK, I am getting the whip out, no need to hold back people!!
Finally passed the halfway point...
I would have preferred a slice of my bananana cream cheesecake (or pie for us lactose intollerant folks)
hep
wtg jellen
mrp, when you asked about the whip there were two of us who yelled ME ME ME!!!
I want cheese cake but cant has it
well PAV, send me that recipe! Maddison is lactose intolerant
I was one of them...
yes even
Your snow come yet?
ah jilli! of course darling.... let me get the 'nine tails' out, especially from you!
got all the i's
i was the other
yes and lots of it :(
lickety says.... OOOOOWWW! OOOOWWWWW! OOOOWWWWW!
I'm confused MrP...a recipe for the cheesecake or the pie?
LOL, mrp!!!
hi lickety
the pie is for lactose intolerant??
josh, how many is??
Is he enjoying it?
oh mari.... doesn he enjoy it?? LOL!!! He enjoys any bloody attention!!
my ewe says baa
idx4, irx8, isx1
positive or negative, if it is from me, he is happy!! (darling hubby of mine)
mrp, we can get something call Lactaid to mix with dairy stuff for those who are lactose intolerant
irx8 oh no
thanks josh
well, we don't have that jilli!! *pout*
Goodbye all...see you soon...
oh, ok....other than the whipped egg whites on top, and eggs in the filling, there's no dairy ...with cheesecake, there's dairy in the eggs and the cream cheese itself...
duh... I should have had those last 2 id's
maybe you have something similar...? Ask the druggist
gn jellen be happy
the last 2 id's were my last 2 i's
hmmm, the eggs might be a problem
scuse me, pharmacist
no jilli, our AMA is extremely strict! We get nothing!!
baa
mind you, they are happy to sell us Berocca.... carcenogenic to the hilt... but hey, can't complain. It is good for hangovers
are you counting sheep ardi?
It's not a prescription thing here. We can get lactose-free mild and I use it all the time
what type of sheep? :D
Jilli, we still cant get it... if it is a food additive, it is not allowed cause of our strick Drug Board
it's the cream cheese I can't eat...eggs for some reason are fine, perhaps it's a milkfat content issue
We are not allowed alot of things in this country
PAV, maddison gets sick on all dairy. It is quite repulsive!
I don't envy her future boyfriends
*milk well, it's a food subtractive, not an additive, lol!
and when I last checked, it would cost a boatload to ship a cheesecake to you MrP...
They will take her out to dinner, dine and whine her... then she will throw up on them!
you can't even do that PAV! they would take it at the Border!!!
can i try the egg substitutes?
i have a little pink/white sleeping ewe pillow (about football size) that i'm playing with
maybe she'll outgrow all that, mrp
yes!! that might work!!... do they have egg white substitute??
oh how cute
jilli, I am sure she will, cause I keep putting dairy into her food (little bits at a time). I believe in introducing the allergen out
I think so...will check, and test it on my guinea piggies (aka "friends")
on ya PAV!
good luck, mrp
LOL I found (with some help) all but 80 words in the first hour,,,and only two in the last 20 mins!
today's icon theme is Thing You Like Best About Yourself
I have to 'host' a soccer do here. It is only 37 C outside, so they are gonna sit in my aircon rather than a sweaty clubhouse.
hmmm, thing I like best about myself???
I thought it said 'things' as usual I got it wrong
that is very difficult jilli.... very difficult indeed *thinking cap*
tings will do just fine, west and your icon etc is just perfect!
thanks jilli lol
*things
Clues are up
wine glasses are like seashells
I have... 'things I like ON myself' 'things I like OVER myself' 'things I like UNDER myself' 'things I won't put anywhere near myself'......
thank you very much lickety
THANK YOU LICKETY!!!!

I couldn't do a cliche. That is in my profile
wonderful quotes BR
oh, lol wanna hear the full pedigree name of our puppy?
Yes please
sure - they are usually doozies
hi sprite -- yes please
they are, lyn. Here goes: Sweet Devotion Cavalier Lionheart Terra
Ok I just died from cuteness
BabbleRabble, I second that! Copied your quotes once more to have them ready whenever I need pondering them.
cute
Sounds appropriate, sprite!
well chosen Sprite
*giggles* Quite a Lionheart, that frowning piece of cute fur!
awwww - actually any of those names indiduall7y would be great
the only part we picked was Terra. Sweet Devotion Cavalier is the breeder. And the theme of the litter names is Medieval English Lore.
Sweet Devotion is the kennl name, isn't it?
That is so cute
indeed jilli, Sweet Devotion Cavalier
weird...the grid said i have 151 words with 100 left but lickety's said i have 151 words with 97 left :S
roflol @ your icon and writeup, jilli!
very odd
BBL
gonna try refreshing...
bfn, lyn. No idea ardilla! Force-refresh both maybe? And I am happy for your good news in your profile. May he grow up healthy and happy.
it's fixed now
good :)
*hugs lobo* How are you doing, WingSib? Your Path any smoother yet?
Our Dane names were complicated. Titandane was our kennel name, in honour of our first Dane, Ch. Lord Titan of Maywood, CD, who came from English Moonsfield lines. We imported a bitch from those lines. All their names began with T and we continued that tradition. We also had categories for each litter. The first was Jewels, so we had Topaz, Tortoiseshell, Touchstone, Trinket, etc. Then we had call names for them which followed the alphabet for each litter. Our last litter was the Architecture category -- Tower, Tracery, Taj Mahal, etc. Their call names were I (our 9th litter) so our American and Canadian Champion Titandane's Taj Majal was merely Imp to us.
lol jilli! Imp is great!
*Taj Mahal
yep sprite thanks for asking
WOW Jil
am glad. Have been thinking of you a lot lately.
He was a sweetie
Well, they all were
thanks sprite congrats on your new arrival Dana she did a good job
they can't have been other than sweet, jilli. Not with a breeder like you. Who picks good lineages and makes sure they get great socialization.
Dana certainly did, lobo :)
Jill I have to show you: http://tinyurl.com/csb8x9
clue for cl8 pls?
i second that Sprite
WE were given a hard time by the established US breeders in the 70s because we insisted on Xrayed hips to avoid hip dysploasia -- now I think just about everyone does that and a lot more too.
sorry ardilla only just got here will keep Hayden in my prayers hugs
ty lore
cute pic herin
you were far ahead of your time, jilli. I actually think it is mandatory now, or close to that.
Jill Hip scores and all that are all the go these days
herin, that's glorious! I've saved it :)
I thought you would like that. They are lovely dogs
now there are designer dogs like labradoodles bred by profiteers with no proper health checks and a lot of lies
those should be forbidden and outlawed.
but they're very popular and fashionable... people are unknowing.
only too true
My G>F insists on all dogs have hip scores and such
hi, all! My solo went great! San Diego was lovely. It is the cleanest city I've ever seen.
whoooot melon! Congratulations on a job well done!
not that I wish the dogs ill -- they are great pets, I hear, if they're healthy, but then carefully bred purebred pups may not find homes as easily
WONDERFULL Melon
hi melon congrats on your solo
Great going, melon!!! What a triumph!
Jill the sodding RSPCA here says that pet stores are ok to sell dogs and cats I think its a load of shit
I'd love to see SanDiego.
to me it is simple: dogs should be healthy and they should be able to be dogs. Overbreeding and weird combinations are a threat against those two conditions.
You're 100% right, herin -- you too sprite
Labradoddles are a great dogs for Guide Dogs
what kind of a breeder sells to pet stores?
melon, was it a one-time-only thing or do you think you'll be invited more often? Sounds like something wonderful!
bad ones, jilli. For sure.
so are the purebreds, herin
Thanks, everyone. I'm planning to write about it, but mostly I need to unwind. Who knew I'd conquer stage fright at 54? The people I worked with were wonderful, especially the bassists of the SD SYm. When a peer compliments my playing, then I know I've done well. I should figure out how to post an audio fule.
I mean they are good for allergies
audio file.
Melon what do you play?
oh I would love that, melon! And double wtg at overcoming stage fright. You rock!
Jill I agree. I hate petstores and the only pet stores I support are Pets At Home
very proud of you Melon well done Champ
Oh dear, Steven Colbert is on with Steve Martin...rofl
and it's past my bedtime so I'll depart -- happy babbling, all -- 93 left for tomorrow
Night Hill
night jilli, sleep well
nighty night jilli sleep well hugs
hi, herinfernal, I play the big old double bass.
wow. Melon.
melon's icon shows a great pic of it, lady
I just nodded off at the 'puter. To bed it is. Thanks for all the kid words. 'nite. {poof}
btw, sprite -- nice to see your old icon :)
grrrrr my b.f is being noisy
sleep well, melon, and dream of a job well done!
thanks jilli :) I thought it fit today's theme pretty well.
night melon
*poof*
finally took a hint
bye jilli
hi/bye melon
bbl my friend called and the soup is ready for pickp
are you overly sensitive to sound too, lady?
bye ardilla, be well
yay Cs polished off
good job lobo!
thanks sprite
Yes but he was being noisy. I hate loud telly. In one of my tutorials my teacher lets me listen to my ipod so i can shut out the back ground noise.
He was playing a computer game it was louder than the tc
tv
noise can drive me crazy. Up to catatonic even if it is really bad.
In class its ok but when im trying to think it drives me batty. I put my ipod on in my tut really low low enough to cut out the murmering but enough to hear what the teacher has to say if she needs to speak to us. The tut is like home work time
great idea, and yay for your teacher.
class? Herin what have you been up to
lady is doing great, lobo! Investing into herself and her future. Am rooting for her!
Lore. I have gone back to Tafe. Studying Advance Diploma in Business Legal practice dual with Business admin
One of my other Teachers R knows I have clinical depression which is good because of the tests
Herin hugs you be a Champ too!!! well done
thanks Lore
always welcome herin and glad they know of your depression
That and R is an awesome teacher. For instance ok you have void contract and voidable contract. A void is well no and voidable is Void Able. Able to be void. Its really great
this grid is so good i have nearly finished
Lore they have to know as sometimes i forget basic words
sounds so good, lady. Great to hear you being enthusiastic about it too.
its good that they take that into consideration herin makes it a little easier for you too
Did your Classes get done and dusted Lore?
yay lobo! Am over halfway already and still finding more, so I think I agree :D
finished before xmas herin getting organised to do next one Cert 4 then Dip. Been more focused on the practical side lately , had to learn a few lessons and had spate over Xmas with passovers
Lore the classes are structured that if you have a stuff up and a general reason they can help you.
YAH LORE go you
you are a hero, lobo. Seriously.
they need to be flexible you will then feel not so bound by rules and regulations and have the leeway to be your Special self
sprite me no hero just well blessed!!!
a hero for sure, lobo. Blessings are worth nothing for people who don't see them, or aren't willing to make use of them. And it takes courage to do so!@
Lore have your teachers helped you with how to understand the big words?
Herin my teachers help me everyday darling (But not the ones you can see)
ok. I meant the school teachers
brb need to wash 2 dishes
almost sin bin for our lady
Herin wasnt meaning to sound silly there it was so appropriate that you asked i had a big grin on my face the teachers here sorry to say they find everything and everyone threatening and the energy to rise above that is what I have had to deal with
silly teachers. A true teacher WANTS you to be more than he/she ever was.
yes lots of plates in here today Herin\ncouldnt agree more Sprite, but 'hey you get that' as one of my friends keeps telling me
yeah, unavoidable, alas. I re4 my case about you being a hero :)
sprite did you notice on BRs icon the lobo 'so cool'
Lore I understand
yes a great one.
But are the lectures helping you?
we have inhouse lectures from independent medical people and yes they help me and I soak them up like a sponge
yah
I love learning new words and new ways to learn the words.
some of those medical words they are dandys lol
OH and you will love this. Do you know who the new Governor General Is Lore?
back in a minute, need breakfast
i love to learn new languages we have a Polish man who speaks no English so its learning that only the basics though
ok sprite
herin no i dont who
Quentin Bryce
last few weeks have been working nightshift reading up on reincarnation and passing over and of course sleeping with the occasional meal in there somewhere
oh some good news thanks Herin I am sure she will do a wonderful job
we are learning all about the legal process from the start
when i was younger i wanted to be a lawyer sometimes wish i had
well suited profession for a scorp Herin the law
gosh hurry back sprite I have nearly finished
only 323 days til christmas
Yep. I got into a huge debate and just said ''Sorry Firey Scorpio"
babs
BR thanks for your lobo !
back
we have lots of scorps at work Herin another profession that suits
welcome back Sprite
love the lobo. Don't wanna think about Xmas at all!
an overarching requisite in the legal profession is cultivating the ability to listen
yes BR same in the care industry sometimes us Scorps dont listen (lesson to be learnt)
morning everyone, snow day :-)
hi Katie, beautiful!
yes, listening well is a plus for everyone
good morning katie
HI Katie.
Also helps that I figure out peoples lies and deciptions long before
many words end in le and sh
hm I bet I need more of both then, BabbleRabble. Thanks.
yay finished
yayyyy lobo! Sparklies for you!

tyvm lol
how's the bratty boy herin?
being a brat. Eating my food the usually
just keep your sense of humor about it all
I do. The phone charger was pretty funny. I need to keep a sense of humor
I wonder why he was attracted to that
It was thin and chewy
hope it wasn't plugged in
no it wasn't
he'd have a surprise then
Ok I have reasched 101 words, saving the last 147 for this evening. Have a Great Day Everyone!

We don't let him near live
that's smart ..speaking of cats mine are here for breakfast I'll try to be back soon
ok
herin you still here?
Yes Hi Ursh
Hi was giggling while looking at your profile - just love the "budgie smugglers"
They are usually worn by really fat balding old men
SA also wears flip flops or slops and also does not have lions and zebras running down Main Road
:D I thought you did Ursh I mean big scary raaaaaaar lions and tigers
some enterprising young engineers just found a way to put indoor plumbing in tepees here. it is quite the rage
I have 80 left and am soooo stuck
I;ve seen a baboon in a street in the Cape. Does that count? :P
Monkeys and baboons dont count Ata they are more like hairy people making a living
Hi ata
Babble what about ice proof warm hammocks?
*grins* I know. And creating chaos for all
Brabble - bit of a bind when they need to move the tepee to higher ground
Hi all. Baboons in Canterbury At?
lol no! around the Cape in SA
Ah! Thought you were being rude about your neighbours.
Hi Sally and the paint brushed kitty
good point, actually
:-) Two kitties, only one pic in my profile. They don't like the snow!
just hairy people making a living Ata??
Don't blame them
yep
hirsute suits
how many co7's?
5
missing 1 then
BR, you got your icon from the op-ed page in the wednesday NYT, didn't you
yep
hi babblerabble. its luke here
HI MR PRES> I am watching the US Life on Mars?
same , am hopeing it will be a good series
I hope they don't stuff it like the Office
i never saw that, i rarely watch t.v but mum said this looked like it could be good
Life on Mars was a British TV
gm babble
gm kristine - i'm burning the other side of the candle
Hi Krist
it that good or bad josh ? lol
it's fine by me
ok good for you then lol
I can't believe that I almost can't be bothered to go and get chocolate cake
ata I agree with your FB statement
lmao it's so true!
lucius is the killer of it
some cats are ok, but dear me, some can stink out a room
Lucius is a sneaky one off it
same as silverclaw
oooh, am liking life on mars
saME
I can't believe that chocolate cake isn't luring you out ata!!
nor me! there's something very wrong!
I remember chocolate if I cast my mind back far enough!!
mmm cake
awwwwww
why no chocolate Katie?
I think it's cos it involves moving and driving
good greif the postmas has just come, they are hardy souls
infern, did you notice the music is wrong??
It is the music from CSI New York
Wrong year?
how original
I'm losing weight herin so I am off it for a while and then I will reintroduce as a rare treat rather than a basic food group!
I am saying... not original
it is taking credit from another show
whats CSI NEw YorK/
? even. omg I can't type today!
just another CSI franchaise ata
Ok Katie that is good for you
oh. Life on Mars is much more important. CSI probably stole from them lol
I am putting weight on... can I get a 'yeeeeeehaaaaa'!
and why didn't anyone ever make a CSI London?
LOL ata!! am enjoying the story very much
Ata No the states stole it from the UK series
yah pressy
Mr Pres it was the song of the time.
why am I having issues seeing the first 4 W'
infern, they should have left it out
I think i sat here for 5 min going no computers no internet not mobiles ok i have lost it
oh come on with the first 4 W's! just got them....
katie, do you know vast amounts about environmental impact analysis?
do you like my 'eye' ?? am watching you all!! LOL
ata, I think alot of people now know about that :D... it is very publicized
Ata our Channel 9 loves to screw up shows
but katie works with it, or its surroundings
Ata, I did it at university... I got 100% for my thesis... and anyone can analyse the environment now.... 13 years later!! My thesis is common knowledge!
Environmental impact analysis?
what do you call a thesis? Cos that's a PhD thing over here?
Not to interupt , I haven't been in chat in a while , but how is everyone ?
it is 4th year hear
here even *
Krist I am good
doing ok krist! just let the soccer club go home
glad to hear it , !!
I'm wading through all the EU consultation documents at the moment. I wish they used nicer language!
Ata what do you mean ?
its just soooooo boring
Sorry i was warming myself in front of the TV. I know a bit about EIAs what's the issue?
they do that on purpose ata.
Oh as in big long words you don't get or legal babble?
yes, I know. but it's still boring
EU documents are awful in their language as they have to be translated across so many other languages
no issue! I'm just learnign it for the first module for the MSc I've just started
sorry if i seem a little dense
Ok. We have to do them for our largest projects. Personally I think they are a good idea, anything that protects the environment is good
I think they are best described as 'dry'
blah blah blah directive 8,87,.7 paragraph 2 refers to directive 8.87.7 paragraph 7 and when one looks at directive ....
etc!
yes .... :)
oh I am cut about this topic... so will stay out of it. (I studied this in 1996)
why would you seem dense herin, perfectly locical questions
oh
we are just starting a simulation study about a estuary / shore complex in wales. it's fun! so far.
I learnt about EIAs at about that time as well MrP I did a post grad diploma in Law of the Built Environment
(btw, we knew back then what was coming... and it has all come to fruition)
hi all. can anyone clue me the el7? it's my last word and it's driving me crazy...
ys
clever katie!
female version of an el5
Mr Pres thats because its all about$$
yep but the world buries its head in the sand. We are trying to build an 'eco town' and everyone says you will never get people to give up their cars. However when they can't afford the gas for them at least people in this town will have an alternative
thank you so much atalante! now i can finally go to bed.
exactly katie!
WTG KANGA
and ppl do give up their cars if they have viable alternatives
yep, catch22.
and if the trains didn't SUCK
we don't have enough rolling stock left as so many people have moved to the trains
We got stuck with COnnex and Lynn
and can't get more for a while, either, I can't remember the date that companies are bringing new rolling stock on line
There is a new station in Corby but no trains as they haven't got any stock to put on the rails
poor Corby!!
do ppl have to go to Kettering?
yep there is a good bus link between the two but most people tend to drive to kettering
which clogs Kettering up, as if it wasn't already clogged up enough
A big piece of snow just fell off my car, perhaps we are having a thaw!
all our snow is gone :(
good morning Babblers can anyone help with the lone R on the right? it is my only blank tile
the kitties are playing together
Hi Nono
ty Nono, I was refusing to ask for that!
I think its an RE
we had about another 2 inches last night, council has run low on grit so the bus route has not been gritted
every R word I find comes from the other R so far
urf!
Nono I have it but I don't know which way it came from sporry
to take water away from something again
its an "again" word Nono ,
ty!
to take away water
thats ok Herin, I'll find it eventually
damn enter button
ty Krist!
hello all
my son was an angel, and found 84 words for me!
hi Lynn
yvw
hey Lynn
now its time to get hubby up and
help him with breakfast
G'd mornign Babblers! I opened the grid, and cracked off 22 words as easy as breathing.
bbl
gm Lori
grrr. Why is it the moment we get a Female Dep PM sleazy comments are made about her and the married PM
See ya' in a bit Nono, tell him I said Hi. :)
now I have nbt, I find I have the willpower to go and eat chocolate cake. I am taking my ever so exciting EIA files with me, in the theory that anything is more interesting when adde dto chocolate
hi lorikins!
Ata, have you heard the big news? Uni's internet MIGHT be fixed. We'll see how long it lasts....
woohoooo!
that;s worth celebrating :) she did come on last night for a bit to inform us that the KoG had bitten her nose
She Babbled yesterday, I'll be curious to see if it happens 2 days in a row.
The KofG had a traumatic day, what?
I think Uni was ignoring her
no 6/24 the sec one please?
or beating her or something
Possibly, but one can never tell. I suspect general all 'round deprivation.
oh man! Jay Leno is going after the Aussies tonight in his joke session!
Sorry Lynn, I just got started.
you'll have to get the truth out of her. Or Emma. She did mention having to bring the KoG over to yours for spaying
nm found it
no 6 -- n + mollyc*****
So, I'm confused. Will you be eating your files and reading chocolate cake, or.....
Lol Lori
no 6/18 first one?
Did she tell you how insane the pricing is? It's ridiculous.
MR P ts says its going to get hot as hades at your end of the world. News is to cancel all outside activities
G'd morning Mrs Katie, how's tricks?
good thanks Lori, office closed so working from home :-)
yep, thank goodness soccer grading isn't on this weekend! 45C is nasty!!
This is from the medics Mr Pres
Ooh, bonus day! Nice to see you using the time appropriately. :D
katie, if the office is closed... why work from home??
yep. tea and cake. and stuff to read
no she didn't! outrageous?
Sounds like a snooze fest Ata, at least there's cake though!
Over $200 difference......
exactly :P anything is better with cake!
If we have work at home we have to do it. Admin staff get the day for free. As you can see I'm taking plenty of breaks!
wow!!! that's stupid
my contract stipulates I work from a specific address... if I am required to work in another address, I get paid a shirt-load of money more... so I hope you are getting my deal!
To a student, as you know, that's a lot of coinage.
absolutely!
my contract says I will do my job no matter how long it takes or where it takes me to!! We are paid very well though so it makes up for it
ok, I'm off. bbl!
Later Ata, enjoy your chocolate cake :-)
er
Other than grappling with transportation issues, it's a no brainer to send Emma home, we'll take care of her and send her back ASAP
I am paid very well too... but i don't have the 'and other duties outside my role or office' in my contract
(you'll put her in the shed, I know it!!!)
Enjoy your stimulating read Ata Hari. :D G'd morning Frances!
*really poofs* :D
: D
no 6 -- add a master's th****
done
G'd morning BR, will this grid kill some of my scant brain cells?
we have this phrase "other duties commensurate with the position"
Hello Babblers. Caught lurking.
babrab, you missed luke. he was asking for you
yay infern
hello, Luke ... sorry
WTG Lady
he has gone to bed now... he found me 84 words!
congrats, herin
commensurate.... what a great word!
didnt get no 6/18 clue?
a prodigy
it covers an awful lot of sins ;-)
indeed babrab! but he only comes on when you are here
Oh I can only commensurate on that katie!! LOLOL

Life is good Aussie, improving for you and yours I hope. ***mini hug*** :)

* Why did the apple cry? * Its peelings were hurt.
Why are donuts naughty?
must dash for Lunch now......... Will be back later..... Be Good xxxxx **lunchtime poof** xx
i was sent home yesterday on quarters for 48hrs
# What happens when two snails fight? # They slug it out
Later Aussie
so i was supposed to stay put unless getting good food
yuk, yuk
i picked the homemade soup from my friend and was supposed to go straight home, but i detoured to get a doughnut
Donuts are good food. Feel good, thus you're in the clear! Spiritual healing is important too.
i actually could get in trouble since i disobeyed the doctor's direct orders
ardilla, enjoy the donut, we wont tell
Take the pirate approach, and think of them as guideline? :p
supposed to be doing bland diet with lots of clear liquids but got a craving after watching a food special
thx for being supportive
i actually got 6 and a vanilla chai latte
Here's a random thought. Do I need to know what I'm talking about to hand out advice like "eat a donut"? :D
i went out in my jammies...was such the sight
why should you be different from any one else?
still had my eyemask on top my head
and little sheep slippers on
:) @ BR
reindeer jammies and sheep slippers and sheep eyemask
* How does the queen bee get around her hive? *She's throne.

G'd morning MM. ***sliding chat over for a bit to avoid the big clues BBL***
thanks annie. so excited
now i have the 10 too - add a plural on to the ones that are doing the co7

you are welcome, MM
and you really like the wrestler that much, eh? Is it your pick for the oscar best picture award???
still need the 8 tho'
That or Slumdog Trif
TO be honest, I can't really see what all the fuss about slumdog is - it was a good movie, but I like Salaam Bombay better. the idea was good though
icon changed....
and I totally don't get what all the fuss is over the guy who played the millionaire host...other than acting like a talk show host, he had ONE scene in the movie
love your Transformers pics

we never watched the waltons,if the wife wanted a good cry she would watch little house on the prairie
I liked that too !
michael landon was always bawling about something;0

He was good in "Highway To Heaven"
i preferred the books to the show
aussie, why did I even bother yesterday? remember when I was pondering snow blowing? well, I did get the thing going (yay me!) went about four feet, all was well, and the thing seized up and DIED. I could get it going again, but the rotors wouldn't go, and the wheels wouldn't turn....I tried it several times, no change. I shut it off, cleaned out all the snow, and lo and behold, one of Secondo's friends cell phones, lost in the snow, was JAMMED in the rotors. Fished it out. Phone still works, snow blower won't budge. Why do I even try?????
d's and e's done
wow, lucky phone
I felt so defeated. I just sat in the snow and cried more than Michael Landon
:0( not the best thing for a snowblower !!
damn Trif kid is lucky the phone still works
you may have sheared a pin on the rotors
at least you can phone a repair shop for free;)
i think i would have smashed the phone to feel better
Well, ours was starting to clear a little, but then.... overnight, we now have about 2 feet of snow !!!!! grrrrr !
the whole point of using the snow blower was to save money on plowing...don't think I can afford to get blower fixed
goodness Aussie that is a lot of snow for you!
the shear pins are about 40 dollars depending on model..unless you took the reduction gears out of it..:/
i was hoping it was more like a belt or something, since the propelling drive isn't working either
I know.... I have a funeral to go to tomorrow, its not looking the best !
shear pins shouldnt cost that much Crossy
i used to do that all the time with frozen news paper rolls
i ment if she paid someone do do it..not just the actual pins
I know i am gonna get blamed by mr. hate for the expense, even though he would have run over the phone too.
the pins are 6 dollars
h's done
go go Ard !!
I'm still working on the CO's !!
wow, soup power must really work, ardilla!
tell him where he can shove it; he should have volunteered to do it himself...hfft
did you find the BIG words aussie? they are all co's

Hello all. What are we bitching about, Owl?
its a stinky grid for me..means everyone else should love it scrabs
LOL scrabs fortunately it's the grid. but you are certainly asking the wrong person :D
You like the twisty ones, Carlee.
hi scrabbs and owl
these just twisting the wrong way for me.....i need jumbo tweazers for this one
Hi Squirrel/Ardilla!

Hi Flosey
thanks ard!

25 to go
Go Ardilla!
r's done
heh, cute (and effective!) clue ard
I don't get the clue. :-(
the 'y' she just clued rhymes with a 't' word for for stool
and one of the words in that comment, for that matter
oh! and the plural rhymes with one from *that* comment
(I had to be careful to avoid it there, or else I would have kept beating that poor horse)
Stool, as in chair? Or stool as in BM?
the latter
I was trying to make it ambiguous, though, so as to not make it too easy ;)
I haven't become familiar enough with the grid to get the clues yet.
oh scrabs always the doctor LOL
heh, you're a holistic babbler, eh scrabs?
Yes, I need to get a "Gestalt" of the grid.
all together now - become one with the grid...become one with the grid....
back again - good morning all!
hiya trif
wb Trif
hi Scrabs, did not see you sneak in
Hi Trif and Nono
hi trif hi nono
Minus 6 here, how about you, Nono?
we are at a balmy NINE degrees today
hehee your 4 degrees warmer than us trif
we are at 13 and the whining began last night...
9F with wind chill here in FL -- big worries about losing the citrus crop this year
Hi guys. Against my better judgment I'm diving in - I won't be able to finish due to time, but still
so, once again, buy your citrus now if you plan to :)
I am NOT going to bring out garbage and recyclables this AM. I don't have much so I will skip a week.
does any one remember an old SNL skit about this family with HUGE bottoms? They were called the "wydette family" or something like that...keep trying diff spellings of same in the grid, but no dice
Have fun, Matty
hi matty. ts i saw they had frozen the groves...
yes trif!!! ROFL
I do remember, Trif. The Wyde family.
Hi kje
yay for KJE!!!! and scrab too!
gm all
they're in the middle of picking -- a hard freeze in the middle of that is no good (and not just for the pickers)
hi kje
hi kje matt
hiya kj
17 to go
ard - is that your arm?
takuma, is it worse for the fruit to freeze during picking than it is while it is still growing?
go ardilla goooooooo
165 to go
241 to go here
Pace yourself, kje.
yes
I don't know, to tell the truth - though I think they can recover from an early freeze better?
84 for me...phone...brb
down south they have 5 growing seasons per year
morning kj and scrabbs
2 things ard - 1) nice tattoo... 2) damn you are skinny! : )
I think I am going to puke, for real. GI virus hit me Tuesday. Geez, and I have to make rounds at the children's hospital and then work from 11-6. Blaaaaah.
yes, nice morning, flos, eh?
can they fire the groves?
I was noticing the tat, too -- very nice ard
the pic is about 2 years old
lol kj
scrab! you should not be making rounds at the hospital if you have a virus!
so sorry to hear that
oh Scarbs if your not feeling well best to stay home and get better
I'm off to read the paper, back in a bit
ty kje and takuma
don't know, TO. it didn't sound like the growers had many options for dealing with a freeze at this stage
hb flosey
ciao flo
bye flos - hagm
like i'm doing, scrabbs
except pick very very fast
must go - later, all!
heh, I was thinking the same thing: I wonder if the pickers were working through the night.
ciao TO
oops, sorry
bye TO
I MUST work! We are SO busy, it is crazy!
hello all
takuma??? you OK over there?
help with R in right column pls

Hi Periwinkle

*sends mrp a hot toddy
neat, mrp
our local news is reporting about a man that shot his 6 year old daughter in the back of the head....sickening
omg mag that is horrid
cl8 is a clump of dirt + a plate
thanks Nono, found the 9's

thanks ardill, got the cl8
*searches for icy blankie
hi mag that's awful

hey babs... one of your fellow austinites gave me the best laughs I have had in awhile yesterday... gladys
hi, all! sounds like it's really cold most places!
do tell, kje!
you all deserve to go to the penalty box!
have you seen gladys on ellen, babs... she is hilarious!
we're starting out at 24 here in OK, but is supposed to get into the 50's
if not, I will get you the link real quick
no...don't know who gladys is?
we've had big swings from a.m. to pm as well..
hi lady
oh man! I hate this time of nite... asking (via advertising on TV) if I am 'sick of faking it'.... good lord!! Give me a pill to ignore stupid ass ads.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=83JDXXK zOXg
hi natts :))
i didn't say co4/6
hi mrP :)
watch it babs... 88 year old woman from austin that called ellen.. very texan grandma-ish
my sentiments exactly MrP
*invents and distributes requested pill*
it gets funnier as it progresses... she is very sharp, and a hoot
did you get the co4/6 blanket, mrp?
no, ardilla, but you did mention something hot....
hey babs! It is very very hot here!! You wanna know what our forecast for Saturday is???
aww man...pb for me
mrp- at least it's not an email asking you if you want to enlarge your...er.....endowment :-)
te6/18 male organ
how hot mr p? unusual for your area??
hahaha! those emails spin me out!! how can I possibly enlarge my **** when I have had two kids pass through it!! give me a break!
just missing that tr7..have the tr 6?
113 F, or 45 C... put a hat on that!!
ouch!!!!
10...
Babs an old fashioned tr7 sewing machine has no electricity
I am going to spend the whole day in Borders Book Shop... reading and sipping coffee... everyone can watch me
go ardilla go!!!
I will take my puter there and hope I get WiFi
thanks nono!
btw, ardilla... haven't asked in a long time, but how is the ankle? completely back to normal?
sounds like a lovely day mrp
nope, back in therapy and have to get another MRI
going there because it's cooler than home, mrp?
9...
well, off I go to work... *sigh* ... see you next time babblefriends!
bye lady
oh bummer ard!!!
ty for tr7 clue
bye natts! :) have a good day darling
is that coffee or cocoa in your cup kje?
indeed bab.... the aircon doesn't work in those temps
so sorry to hear that - many good wishes for improvement
ortho's not sure they can do anything else for me :(
it is the humidity which kills it
ty kje
why ard? what do they think the problem is?
don't you spell hot toddy.. t-o-d-d-y? why won't it take it
nm
tonight, I had a soccer meeting at my house... to combat the heat as the clubhouse has no aircon... but we had to move the dining table to the centre of the aircon (in our house) so that we could get cool... that is how nasty it is with humidity here
hrm, kj
try again, kje, it does take it
it is a word KJE!!!!
not sure if you get the pb for that ;)
go to the penalty box hun!!
it does take it kje
i tried twice!!!! i swear!!!!
it takes it and with a single d too
well, yes... I see it takes it NOW!
oh, TY ard
I wanna know what that is called!??? when you put in a word, but it doesn't take to the grid, but it is a word!! SOMEONE GIVE ME A MEANING!!!
brb
changed my icon for the first time in ages - forgot how long it takes to refresh
clue for 2nd te6/18 after male organ
oops - brb
hb peri
oh, ty again ard... havdn't seen the male organ
8...
it is a slap down mrp....
I usually call it "doshing" Mrp, on account of enable not taking "dosh"
slap down??
7...
we must come up with a term for that phenomena
6...
hi all..lol..just tried dosh again, even though i know it doesn't work
yes, i think slap down captures the mood of getting "not in the dictionary" back from a stupid out of date enable
see? krista is "doshing", or got "doshed"
were any of you on the other day when we were signing on to the babble group in facebook? I can't find the group now...*looking everywhere*
ooooh, parliment question time is on!! how rivetting!!
5...
I did come up with one, Mr P = see below.

yw kje
i'll send you a link, babs
wow - ards is spriting to the finish!
well, krista, you and I can call it doshing then....
thanks...not sure why it doesn't show up in the home or profile?
I must have a definition for entering a word (you know you have entered it!) and it doesn't take... then you enter it again... and it takes!
goooooo ardilla!
3...

it's cyber voodoo, mrp!
Mr p = is doshing not doing it for you????

thank you trif..just a little commentary
report from our PM.... all australians have to deal with the global economic crisis without help from the government... that is what the opposition is suggesting. I like our Prime Minister. He is saying all people need support, especially about the 'stimulous package'.
do you get to watch the debates with your government??
my friend theresa wrote an amazing poem about the oscars, which i will be posting at the appropriate time. I can't wait

Hi Lori
hi again :)
Morning, Ata.
wb Ata Hari
kje..thanks for sharing Gladys! I almost lost my green smoothie all over the keyboard!
well, babblers it's time for me to get drugged up and go beddy-bye
Hi Ata and Judi
wtg nane
happy babbling all
they didn't have any chocolate cake in the coffee shop :(
HiArd! Are you better today?
nope
That unacceptable Ata! Sleep tight ardilla.
I am sorry to hear that. I will send healthy thoughts your way
Finally at the c. This is the first grid in awhile taht the big words were that easy.
they did however have lemon meringue pie which was a good substitute, even if I can make it better myself
Well, I don't know who to feel more sorry for, Ata or Ardilla.
Hope it wasn't a "package" lemon meringue pie.
lack of chocolate is always worst
I would say Ardilla because she cant eat ht elemon meringue pie rght now
sorry Ata
no, it wasn't, though it did have that suspiciously fluorescent yellow
* eat
UGH! I do not like that Ata
but it didnt taste of susoicious fluorescent yellow, so it was ok
and they made gorgeous meringue, the nicest meringue I think I've ever had
Poor Ardilla. Get well soon. Hopefully, it's just a little too much food coloring, Ata. As long as it tastes like lemons, s'ok.
'twasnt the best ever, but it was certainly good
Well, lack of chocolate is a big void Ata, so your expectations fr the pie were prob'ally unrealistic. :D
true LOL. and I'm used to south african LMP which is a world above any other LMP
Interesting. Is that where most of your lemons are imported from, Ata?
no, I'm just used to my aunt making LMP over in South Africa :P The only times I ever had it as a kid werer over there!
and they make the lemon bit very differently
Ah. I see.
basically a thick lemon and condensed milk mixture
sounds yummy
oh yes :)
Finally first sweep done, 34 left. Oddly enough, I now find myself hungry.
wd, Lori.. hi Babblers
lol :P
G'd mornin' Aloy!
very COLD morning, Lori... and another hard freeze predicted tonight.. am fearful for the citrus crop.. tomatoes are history.. tuff winter
That's not good Aloy. It's a balmy +16 here American temps lol :D
brrrrr.. bundle up!
no 6/18 between negatives and short letter, please?
ends with not "bro" in the family, nan
ty aloy
yw.. that word shows up quite often, and i always overlook it
Darn, I"m missing an n, but that wasn't it.
metoo Aloy
kind of a nice word.. (-:
are you missing the one that starts with what you head does when you get sleepy and ends with French Poo*** dog?
.. funny word
Aloy! You rock. Thank You very much!
Have I ever told you you rock? Thanks again. :D
yay.. glad you found the funny word, Lori
I wouldn't have found it, but for you.
ok, lori, you don't need to go over-the-top :P
aw, sure you would have.. the list pointed the way for me
this isn't early morning babble you know!
Moi? Over the top? Shirley not.
lol... you tell her, Ata!
Je am shocked hat you would accuse me of excessive adulation.
*laughs deviously*
have you been hit by lightning?
We're bilingual here in Canada you know. Please observe my usage of Je instead of I.
I did notice that quite wonderful use of French there
It helps me blend in at almost any Parisian community.
Oh, happy day. Fireworks!

lol, peri
I had breakfast but am hungry again, brb, need to make some tea
just popping in to say hey again - trying like crazy to finish, cuz I won' t have a chance to play later....
Yea matty! Go go go!
I do love that wi6shins is in the grid
Have you walked sideways Ata?
wb Tri
I thought this would be a long tough grid -- but it wasn't -- lickety's list helped -- I always miss so many of the various endings when there are a lot of them
I've been going anti-clockwise all day
hi Trifioso
me too nan. I always forget at least one....
I am really stuck on the lo 5,10, which I am sure is just some ending I am missing....
lo + spelling of a letter
few, found it!
what lori said!
d is for definitely don't have 38 d's.
I have 7 of them Loir
* Lori_ SORRY
dr6/27 - not the plural of the appliance that you use after a washing machine?
If I were to step out of character, I'd have to say D is for poopy.
time for me to dr 5 for the day -- see you tomorrow :)
bye cybernan:)
Bye Nan
bye nan... I'm off too.. see you all next grid!
well there are a couple of poop words in the d's
Got those matty, one of the few I actually have lol. Have a good one cyber
poop words?
r's are going easier for me than d, which is so weird.
hello, nan are you referring to the do4/6 and do5/14?
very odd!
Lori has yet to finish? What is this??
Not poop words, just that they're poopy as far as I'm concerned. :)
if so, they are extinct birds
she's too busy being complimentary to Aloy
Uh oh. So much for convincing Uni I'm a Babble genius. Hello my love!
ty Peri, that kind of poop
lol ata!
complimentary or complementary? They do go well together..
mmm, jasmine green tea with toll house pan cookie
I know. I was debating which to use
need to make more cookies or maybe hurshy's crazy cake
I only have 57 words..if Lori hasn't finished yet, I'll never get there!
younger brains and all that ...
60 left here
My brain has lots of space left in it Ata!
not spaces in it from old age? :P
crazy cake? Sounds intriguing.
I'm just pickier about what I retain now. :D
does it make you crazy, or do you have to be crazy to make it?
the spaces are more like holes, really.
it is easy, Lori. some flour, cocoa, vinegar and vanilla extract. no eggs
not sure, Ata :-)
Gonna check out now, Happy Babbling everyone, may be able to bbl:)
vinegar!
I think it is posted in BabAnon
bye Jean!
I'll check it out peri, thanks.
yes, vinegar but it tastes just fine
Bye jean! Great to see ya' again.
if not ask hurshy for the recipe when you see her.
or I could email it to you
sissy
thanx Lori and you too take care
thanx Lori and you too take care:)
Holes? Gap maybe, like the clothing store. Maybe it'd make me more cooler.
the crazy cake is easy to make since I usually have all the ingredients on hand
Hello again everyone
hi Tak
wb Takuma
oh, one left, and then housework....has there ever been a better reason NOT to finish???
FIREWORKS!!! WOOT WOOT

There, paper submitted, now can focus on babble for..15 minutes!
hi uni
hi une
It's finally done? Nice. Happy Babbling
Heh, I should have figured it was a word, but I've never seen the to6/24 (verb form of the terrible 2s?)
hey uni!
Hey Taku! (and Carlee, Pug, etc)
morning
you know you've babbled too long when you get cross that words like sirdar aren't there
G'd afternoon phaeton. Ata is that code for word geeks?
um .... yes.
***sand back, I feel another lightning strike coming***
*ZAP*
*** 5th time this week ***
carlee, did you write your profile?
*deflects Ata's lightning with quick tinfoil hat application*
I'm off. Good luck all
yeap..i did
God. That was stupid, of course you did. But the poetic part of your profile I meant. ***sigh***
he 7 anyone?
yeap..i did
we've just had a detailed discussion of lemon meringue pie and then crazy cake. nearly as good as banoffee!
extend the 5 ruru
crazy cake?
ruru: it's sort of like the act of being an h5
I had a granola bar...is that the same?
its' a hurshy invention apparently, much loved by peri
and rhymes with a word for religious fervor
um ... how shall I put this ....
Depends on if you ate it whilst wearing a tinfoil hat Uni
honestly?
Tinfoil hats are essential
yes, hurshy can cook occasionaly!
carlee, what should I be extrcating from your poem? Mourning / loss?
not seeing how to extend that tried different things
ok...well..the wine waits for no one... I must get back to grape crushing
*extracting although I like my creative spelling
its just commentary lori...simple...perhaps thought provoking commentary
nothing beyod that
what's the difference between extracting and extricating?
Wine is better han whine! Have a good one.
beyond even ( Lori is still contagious I see ..good to know)
heh <---typo Queen
Mmm, wine. Would it be inappropriate to have a glass at 12:36 pm, just before class and then work?
grapes are calling me....
absolutely not
byebye
he*l* how are you?...if you don't succeed *** again
Sun is over the yardarm somewhere Uni.
Thankee Phae!
Besides, you're not driving. :)
yw uni
shouldnt a co6y be a type of fishery?
Alright. Must go to class...no skipping in favour of babble. 108 down, and I am away. Be well all!
lol, I tried it Ata and was disappointed when it was denied.
bye dear!!
bye Uni
thanks you paeton
Take care Uni. Later.
me too. I wanted it muchly
welcome ruru
ditto so7, come to think of it
Tried that too.....
what an inconvenient grid
hi all
hi smile!
how's life on the grid today?
hi all- back from taking the kids to school and spending 45 minutes with the school counselor *sigh*
222 words of it agre good darling. G'd afternoon
lol. thanks!
Did you make the counsellor feel better mag?
anyone have the first no 6/18?
Ha! I wish... my 3rd grader hates school with a ink and purple passion... I was in her office crying over what to do with him
whip him until he decides school's actually a good idea after all?
*pink and purple that is
ink sounded good!
no + y** or no + 2 letter word
ata if only that would work :-) He goes because I make him, he just doesn't like it. He makes good grades too. Weird child :-)
Any bands of gypsies he could be dropped of with?
thank you
ty loriP
y v w
wolf packs in the forests to raise him?
Mag- does he make friends?
7 dwarfs looking for domestic help?
I've thought of both of those things....I also was thinking maybe he might like the circus!
partridges in pear trees?
Ooh, the circus. Brilliant!
yes DR he has several friends, and one very best bud
You could hire a nanny and pretend he's not yours.
either that or he has to walk to London to seek his fortune
he just gets anxious and distracted by the busyness of the classroom
is he bored or does he think school is beneath him
AH! That is a real problem
I really think it's anxiety driven. He is seeing the Dr. this afternoon.
that will help
my phantom for today: redolent
counselling / drugs or the circus ....? I think cleaning out elephants would win any day :P
are there any sh's?
no
ty dr
#2, now 13 loaths school, always has. So far I've out manouvered him.
lol Ata- I am going to save that one for my kid
I hated school too, but I think I was bored because I was about half a step ahead usually
Child labor's been oulawed for some crazy reason. What about other continents?
I adored school, but only because they let me skip 2 years as a small child, so I was always acadmically way ahead
our issue right now is he doesnt want to " show his work" cuz he can do it in his head
I did not like school but i did well
makes perfect sense to me DR
sometimes children hate school because of being bullied
me too... that is the problem
lots of child labour in India
1st se 6/18 please?
send them all to India! just kidding,, of course
Don't forget school gears to average. Anything above or below is a battle.
maybe we should just send them all to ATA with all th great ideas
se 6, a group of 6 (poems)
Atually, here, the below average gets much more attention than the average
India works for me. Is there paperwork?
I wonder if EL7 is something you only wear on the overhead train? Just a random thought...
paperwork? nah. just a few rupees bribes here and there
We are at a good school. He just hasn't been tested yet .. that will be in March
BR- he did have a kid kind of bugging him, nothing serious, we got it taken care of, but the kid's mom teaches there, so it was hard to say too much. Also, I went to school with his parents, so don't want to say, yeah we've been friends for ages and BTW your sone is a raging brat :-)
lolol Bzz
mag, I would, do and have. A screamin' demon is a screamin' demon, and I say so when necessary.
they have a pretty strict teacher and she nipped it before it got too bad
***I wonder what Canadian $ exchange for rupee is right now***
Well, that's a good thing mag. Some kids are just absolutely bored to tears with the material they're offered.
lol Lori- I would be more apt to send my 10 goinng on 35 year old daughter with her sassy mouth...she could tell them how to run the factories
We could BOTh send our sassy 10 yr olds...
because she knows how to do everything and *big eyeroll* mom, you are so out of touch
do daughters come in any other way than sassy?
I've got a seven year old they could have. Maybe we could go bulk rate and save on shipping.
mine is a son
There ya' go, that's solved ! Next problem!
nice way to talk to the woman who sat through the Jonas Brothers concert for her birthday
we had to go to son's grade 3 teacher to tell her son was bored - they created a science program and things improved
afternoon everyone
Hi Katie and Flosey
hi kitt!
*admits she hid in bathroom for part of concert*
How was the chocolate cake?
hi flo and katie!
ha! magmom!
wb Katie. Working hard? :)
they didn't have any *tantrum*
Oops, hi Flosey!
so I had lemon meringue pie instead
hi DR, magmom, and all, back for last 29
lol Mag!! I so get that!
lemon meringue pie - my fav
I've got all the urgent things done but fore some reason my emails won't update. However will be in the office tomorrow if there is no more snow so will be fine
lemon meringue pie must count as one of your five a day :-)
ugh, back to work. take care all.
ugh, back to work. take care all.
well I am off for a bit- working at home today bt really need to work!
I noticed the difference in the volume between that concert and when I went to see the Police and the Eagles...they turn the volume down for the old people
have fun all
Later darling, DR
bye darling, DR hagd!
absolutely! probably 2/ 5 with the size of that pie!
Katie - do you mean one of the five food groups? I like that
Clue for el7, anyone?

el+ a woman's garment
portions of fruit and veg a day, I think, flosey
no our 'five a day' is about portions of fruit and veg. We have had a big campaigne over here to get everyone to eat five portions a day. Unfortunately most people think that chips are included ;-)

elbikini

elskirt, elblouse, elnightie
okay, well then I am crazy :-) thanks BR!
elteddy is nearly in the grid!
i'm still not getting the el+bra or the el+corset - i must be thick - can someone help me out?!
in our house it's elcat as she is always on my lap
edith I can only think of funny ones not the real wordd
is there anything that it rhymes with, perhaps?
hey all - how's the grid?
el 7 -- add a garment with a bodice
elshift*****
gee thanks ata. that makes it PERFECTLY clear :/
el + rhymes with to iron, you p**** something
el7...add a type of gown
elwedding***** then!
I got it from ata's clue!
ah, thank you! have it now, thank you atalante & flosey!
hello all
el7 is a female al5
and i already HAVE the word
hi peri
but, chips are made from potatoes, ergo they are a vegetable :-)
thats clever, vi
hey peri!
I didn't have the word
ah peri, i love the way you think!
do they mutate their first letter?
Well, it would have been if I'd typed it right. Female el5.
I love chips :-)
Hello, everyone!
i think with the amount of grease/fats added to chips/french fries that they cease to become vegetables! they become something else entirely!
Hi vic!
hi vi!!
supervegetables!
quite peri, still doesn't count. They ran an advert a few years ago where most people didn't know that rice crispies were made from rice, sometimes I dispair
oh, btw, hello everyone! i just jumped right in - no manners, me!
snyders makes vegetable chips. i am sure they havemanaged to take all of the nutrition out of them.
looove snyders
undoubtedly. but i bet they taste better than veggies, too!
but i do follow the 5-a-day practice. it's not hard.
I need to have five portions for dinner!
if you remember juice counts. a little oj and a cup of V8 go a long way
atalante, is that the norwegian, danish, swedish, finnish, or icelandic flag? I do get them mixed up.
"snyders" is almost in the grid.
it's eth English flag!
I need to buy some veggies and fruit but will wait til it gets a little warmer to go out
(England, not UK)
gee why don't you all go back to your country of origin, you lot os expats you. i have become totally confused. :/
gosh, it is! i always think of people using the union jack!
could I please get a second clue on the first se 6.18 please?
:D:D
The Union flag is SCotland, England and Northern Ireland officially
i should have recognized it from rugby and football.
is the first se6/18 the group of 6 musicians?
not wales?
noooo, cos wales is a principality on its own, kind of. Ish.
so they're not part of the u.k.?
ok finally got it thank you...
did anyohne in us catch the kennedy center awards honrong george carlin last night?
oh - apparently they are included in the England bit, cos Wales is a principality of England. knew that got in there somehow!
no, Owl, was it good?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Union_Fla g
ty!
don't know, vi
*sigh* when you see his work oer th years all together you realize just how brilliant he was. brilliant.
That was for ruru's question, Ata. And the answer would appear to be yes from his reaction! =D
Hi fellow Babblers!
ohhh :)
better go Crumble on lap & needing cuddles! bbl
Hello, beachboggle.
hi vi bye katie
Can't you cuddle and Babble at the same time, Katie?

My hands are shaking...
Congratulations Jellen!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yep, that's him in my profile pics...
when did this happen?
Cute!!
it's so exciting!
Is there a date set?
Just now, TO...
great news jellen...congratulations!!
You just now got the ring and you are on Babble?!
No date set...It's going to be a rather long engagement...
Well, let us know when...we can have a Babble Wedding!!
she has her priorities right Bzzn!
my thought exactly bea. not that we would ever let you forget it if you didn't di4 immediately
Yes, Bea...Tim also got new memory for the computer, so he's installing that...
yes the dresses can be yellow and green
Ran to the store and bought new memory and while he was at it, just happened to pick up a ring? LOL!
Just had to share with my Babble family...
why yellow and green?
uh...babble colors?
so happy for you!!
Congratulations Jellen!!
I'm glad you did share it with us, jellen. Thank you.
Haven't thought that far ahead, TO, but probably not yellow and green...
oh...that yellow...mine looks more butterscotchy...we can all have a letter on our dress
cute icon phae
LOL
love yours too jellen
Thanks, kje!
ty kje...getting a headstart on V-Day!!

Hi phaeton, like your new icon
Hi, josh
Congratulations to you, Jellen
Good to not rush into things
hello all
Thanks, peri!
ty mixi
got tired of looking at snow..lol
hi peri
woohoo jellen
back to lurking
Sounds good Jellen. I think I waited a year.
We want to get Tim through treatment and back to work first...
Thanks, kje!
How are things going for Tim?
congrats, Jellen!
He's not acclimating well to his shots...so three days a week he feels rotten...
Thanks, julie!
that is typical for those shots, jellen... no one truly acclimates to them. and many feel better the entire week... hope he hangs in there
I'm sorry to hear he feels bad so much.
Is cl8 a compound word?
no
technically yes
extension of the cl4
well... not really, but can be broken down into 2 - cl4 + di4
cl8 is actually made up of two words in the grid
He's worried because it's financially tight...feels he should be going back to work...
Thanks for the cl8...looking...
where do i find the icon themes?
financially tight will pass... he needs to worry about his health for now
Jellen, have decided not to take the jewelry course, too far from my house and not enough money at the moment :(
yes, Tim needs to concentrate on his health
21
*wishes we were all independently wealthy*
Aww...peri, I understand that!
yea, that would really be nice, magmom. I know that money does not buy happiness but sue would help a lot
*sure* would help a lot
peri it hink it's time for lunch again..it's so COLD tho!
definitely be a help here at the moment :-)
I don't have any money at the moment, Owl, but a nice thought. and yes it is too cold
did I tell you, Owl that I was turned down for that focus group :( no reason given
just read back, congratulations Jellen :-)
***stomps in from the cold, disgusted that the word fairy didn't finish the grid while I was gone***
no. sorry, peri. ae you looking for anything else? how about some temp stuff like demonstrator? you are outgoing.
did we give up on PBing everyone for using co4?
not really, registering with Manpower but most of those jobs are office work which I have not done in a while, unless you count a month working in a dentist office in 2007
I know they are looking for census workers...there is a website somewhere with info
but peri i have a buy one get one free coupon for Cosi. and also pizza does nto cost too much we could share one.
i keep entering d's... but they never go gray
* gently guides lorip to pb* sit hear, it's warm.
which co4 is that Krysten?
let's wait til it gets a little warmer, Owl
yep the snow means it has to be used!!!
it's those #&)%(*& do words
the one that describes the temp outside right now!
mail is here, brb

Hi, rolin!
Thanks Bichon, that was decidely fishy. FIREWORKS!!
Yay, liz!!!!
i am not happy with this grid..
I don't think it is a bad grid, rolin
It's actually a nice grid once you've sussed out the endings, Rolin.
hmm..ok...i shall persevere then
Jellen, tell everyone your news again!!!!!!
ive got the ending liz..its the beginnings that are escaping me..lol
Tim proposed to me this morning, with ring in hand!
Hi for a few folks. There's news????
WOW!!!!!
oooooooooooohhhh Jellen...congrats... did you say yes??
Hi, MG!
give details jellen... let's hear how sweet the guy is : )
We are awaiting the photo!!!
Not very many REALLY silly words, though.
Actually, I said maybe at first, lol
you DIDN"T! ouch
ohhhh that's bad Jellen
lol..good for you..
Honesty is always best in something that big.
The guy is very sweet, kje...
story jellen!!!!!!!
FIREWORKS
I was joking and he knew it...:-)
Yay, peri!!!!
Ah!! Well, congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jellen, what happy news, just entered the grid and saw your entry.
Ans YAY Peri!
I loved being engaged, your hand will be waving in the air for weeks :-)
Hi Stidgmere!
congratulations to periwinkle for fireworks. Hellow Monkeygames.
bye all, now off to play Scramble
woohoo peri
my cousin got engaged at Christmas and was shocked at how happy it made him and everyone around them :-)
I feel so good about my own wedding I still have a soft spot for engaged people and newlyweds. Awww!
Nothing much to tell...I was still in bed and heard the doorbell ring...heard Tim answer it and run back up the stairs...heard ripping of package...
bye peri, invite me for a game and you can hammer me again
wow, jellen... i was just thinking back too... when did you guys meet? it was on plentyoffish if i remember correctly... seems like yesterday!
continue...
For the record I will have been married 16 years this coming May.
Then he came in with box in hand...started to open it, but I said, no, do it properly...
Yes, do continue...
LOL jellen.... and?
We met April 13, 2008...
I have been married 43 years. I remember when I was married for more years than I was single. And so on. Here is Stidmama just here for errands.
*getting very soppy at the romance of it all*
He got down on one knee, and said my name, and I know I'm a pain and a lot of trouble, but will you accept this ring?
and when was he diagnosed? pretty quickly, wasn't it?
bye stidgmere
He was diagnosed in June...
aaawwwww - I know I'm a pain - LOLOL
Diagnosed with what? I have caught snippets here and there but don't have a grip on the real picture.
at least he didn't say "I know you cause me pain" - LOL... miss shots
What an adorable proposal!
I missed all this because of the wedding, it seemed to wipe out about three months of babble news
*wiping a tear from eye now!!*
Tim was diagnosed with melanoma last June, had an operation on his hand in July and has been on interferon treatments since October...
brb...
Ah, yes. Is it going OK? My aunt had melanoma a few years ago. She's fine now.
Anyway, YAY and congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tomorrow I find out if I can interview for the job at the Institute for War Documentation.

thus the "hold" lynxxx!
se 6/18 = se + anagram of another word for exam

cos of industrial soot everywhere. again I think!
north of birmingham, walsall, wolverhampton, sandwell & oldbury
I'm going back next week for a funeral - my best friend died today from renal failure - i was due to see him tomorrow.
Because of the soot in the industrial revolution
Oh I am sorry helmet
I was given this site by a friend called Crooty who used to play, and she was given the site by Robin Hobb, a fantasy author lady
oh helmet :( I'm sorry
Mari told me about it
That's hard Helmet...I am sorry for your loss
He had a good life and lots of happy memories - I don't believe death should be a sad thing

oh! down to 117...
well, **I** thought so, Stid, but I got a text yesterday asking me how things were coming along, lol
lmao, always happens, doesn't it

oh katie... *thinking of biggest fish* >*)-(OOOOOO)(_<< HALIBUT
*laughs*
rofl krista!
Tuna!!

mmmmm. *wiping drool off keyboard* in my next life I come back with no food allergies...
bye krista dear!
that's great, Ata!
later krista! see you soon!
*considering whether to point out you are supposed to eat three meals a day*
Bye Krista see you tomorrow
omg I know. but I had a litle brekfast, and then big lunch, and some fruit earlier on, so I tried!
anyone have a clue for the el7/32 pls?
an occassional day doesn't hurt and if you are going to miss anything dinner is the best one. Make sure you don't miss breakfast though it's a killer for weight loss
el7/32 - female el5/12 - ending in what a female would wear
hm. el 7....
skirt, vi?
are you going to keep going when your free trial ends?
oh I don't normally, I *stuff* myself at breakfast! I realised a long time ago that the only way I can do a diet is to have a REAL breakfast
Well, if skirt were in the grid it would be an option, stidmama! =P
nearly stid, add a joined on top to it
yes, I think so
thanks katie and vi *thinking*
AHA!!! got it!
That's really good ata, remember you didn't think it would work before you started
=D
I know ... I still can't quite believe it
did you get it mary? not so much an "add on" to the 5/12, more a reworking of the ending
why are we so worried about losing weight? you can't just take hobbit out a bit more often?
We can do it together as I will be doing it for about 2 years!!!!
yes, had to answer the phone but I just got it ty
yes, had to answer the phone but I just got it ty
katie -- I haven't heard anything of fuggles lately...
go mary go!
woohoooo! and because I need to lose weight, and I already take the mutt out for over an hour each day!
sorry, my hand must work faster than my mind
He died in July Stid. I still miss him but I decided not to get another hamster as with three cats it's just not fair
oh katie, I am so sorry. (sad mama look) he was a nice hamster.
Someday I would like to find another word.
down to 100... (did you find "Mother Anne" yet, vi?)
he was lovely and was so important to my life when there was just the two of us, I think he would be irreplacable just because any new hamster would need to compete with a hubby and 3 cats
listing now.
that
I am almost done eating lunch. When I finish, I have to go back to writing papers.
Yeah, I've got her, thanks, stidmama.
he was there in the right time in the right place, and will always be the perfect hammie!
that's exactly when I listed. go Stidmama
yes, he would be irreplaceable -- but I am glad you have the hubby and cats to help look after you. (notice it takes ALL of them to do what fuggles did?)
thinking of him still makes me smile. If I put him in his travel box in the car he would lie on his side playing dead until I tapped on it in fright, and when he got to where we were going he would trash his cage in a rock star type tantrum as he was so mad I put him in his travel box
LOL katie! what a character!
little brat :):)
oh its a stidder!
In the end I would put the whole cage in the car and he would sit on the top level looking out the window
hello nutly! how's you? and the drunken cat?
nutster!

go mary go!
oh nooooooo! what did you say?
Ds done...
I said you were a good person and I admired how you are being supportive of the people in your life who need it. Not everyone cares that much, you know.
Ds done is a great accomplishment stid... they just went on and on and on...
didn't they, though! thought the do words would "do" me in!
aaaawww - thanks stid
(((kje))) wish I could give you choclit in person
mmmmmmm - I am eating some as we speak actually - LOL
rofl... GMTA!
mmmmm choclit
the HE 7 is impossible. help?
have you got a he5/12?
he5 + attempt
yes atalante, and its plural.
or actually - he4 + attempt
he7 - the state of using or being a he5, ends with an attempt
aha! thanks ladies!
yw
eyes done and I shall take a break now because I "saw" is 4 as is + letter sound, not as pronounced... *sigh*
shoot-- i am not going to be able to finish these last few prior to my mtg - damn!

Krista, I am bogged down with the CO's at the moment !
Tell me about it....grew up with dogs, learned how to train, swore when I got older I'd have a house full of them...
Really not fair then :0(
Maybe when I actually do grow up... ah, some day
(I'm 38 now)
i need 7 more of those..if you need clues, shout
Haaaa, right there behind you at 34 Jess, (35 this June).... I dont have a dog either, I'd love one, but Georgia is so boisterous at the moment.....
co words, not dogs :)
I only need 8 more of them Krista, shout if you want some too !!
i'd love a houseful, but allergic to dogs..and cats..and birds. and..
we should compare let's see..co 7/32?
I have a daughter too, almost 12 years old. Actually she's the Jess, I'm the mom
i'd better double check for plurals, Aussie..
Yep, got that !
Fair enough Mom :0)
may I have a clue for it, please?
mine is 13, jess..interesting age
do you have the 6/21 above it ??
yes, do you need it?
no, just plural it !! rofl !
I hear you Krista
oh, hold on, which 7/32 ??
co7/32 a pie-eating co7
oh, you know what..i had it on Babble, but not on the clues page..oops

Thats ok then Krista, we are on the same page !
Hey MagMom !!
I'm working on these blessed co's as well
ok then, we need a clue for the last co 7/32 if anyone takes pity on us
Its the Aussie and Krista CO show !! lol and MagMom makes 3 !!
the last co7/32 is the plural of the 6/21 above it !!

I'm not surprised! :-)
right right..i need the 7/36 actually
me too !! I needs that....
co7/36 most chilly
7/36 is the most frigid
(holds sign) **will give you cookies for co words**

thanks jess and magmom
depends on what kind of cookies LOL
and the 7/40 is slightly co4
I have chocolate and raspberry cookies !

the fish- except fishier
the co fish- I should clarify
ok, co6/27, fish + fishier !!
hello again friends... I was going to get some work done, but lay down for a "short" nap. *sigh* so...

hey stid! welcome to the CO show!
minus the R from the programmers !

*someone break out a halibut please*
hmm...co 6/27 is related to the previous fish...thought I tried every conceivable variation of that word......
*stage whisper* (I am in NO hell myself)
**passes Halibut to MagMom**
*ouch! son's stuffed clown fish is so much softer*
*singing the plural song* ESSS ESSS ESSS ESSS ESSS ESSS and ESSS when all you can do is guessssss the very next word to be very sure could possibly end in s
Oh ROFL Mama !!!!! I love that !
I have conquered the the CO's *hums theme from Rocky*
:0( I am getting there MagMom, slowly !
LOL stid
still want 5 of them !
ok, i am not getting the co 6/27, at the risk of looking totally stupid (though i suspect it's a bit late for that)
go aussieme go!
what you do to a child...starts with that co fish
co fish + 4th letter + 2nd vowel + hook letter !!
krista, if we hold you hand, we'll co 6/27 you -- like an egg that isn't quite boiled

Ok, I was cluing the first word !!
oh I see now...
co, double 4th letter + 2nd vowel + hook letter !
i need the first one but didnt get the clues
it's the co fish- but fishier
co+double bra size+ more ending
Krista, did you get it yet ??
c + not more even, but more o**
ok, that's it..i HAVE to get Babble Expert back
the problem was, again, that I had it on Babble, but not on the clue page
how do you get Babble expert? I never had it :-)
AGAIN !!!!!! **rolls eyes and sighs**
that's why nothing was working **I am so sorry** for taking your time with that. ugh

Are you still doing microbiology?
Uniquity -- you're on again! LOL
Thank you Ruru!! I kept thinking something similar, but not spelling it.
i'm ok uni. good to see you after what seems like a long hiatus
no, that ended last quarter. this is a half-time program in linguistics. I don't have abundant energy in the winter, wanted to take it a little easy
featherbee says hi to all from the puppy cam chat :-)
I *am* on again. When I come back, I come back with a vengeance. This'll be two completions in a row..might become a habit again :)
thanks dorens :)
WB uniq! How is school for you?
linguistics --muy interessante
That's what I needed magmom.Thanks!
wow uni! LOL
oh, lol, hi!
hi feather and tdan
didn't see you were here too
hello dan! *waves to feather in the background*
yes, indeed so on the linguistics, dorens!
linguistics would be hard for me! and Hi feather weed.
hi dan and dc
I tried to end the hiatus months ago, but my internet wouldn't let me babble. So far, so good :)
yes, we are studying the local indigenous language : Lushootseed; as well as ecology and cultural diversity
oh, i'm just loving the little nuzzling sounds
i'd think babblers are (for the most part) wordy kind of people... and linguistics is kind of a natural interest there
go uni go!
nuzzling sounds??? feather?
I can be quite rude on occasion though ..lol
we have become so very very dependent on the internet. don't know how i'd live without it, honestly
nuzzling... hmmm
dan's puppycam stid! now now!
I could live without the internet...
ru ru rude? is that where the name comes from?
where? where???
i belived in interweb, but do w/out TV

Alright..my chat isn't making it in..testing

Woohoo! Thanks. *back to grid*

she's alison
hi, uni!
we play seperately throughout the day, and then end up at one house
oh....
deceptive, ts.... we might have been talking about you not knowing you were here (my middle school girls play a variation of that game all the time.. then come crying to me)
it'd be silly for her to replay my sadness
she doesn't generally chat.
and i generally announce myself when i'm here
i didn't mean to play any deceptive games
I tend to be really quiet while I am here too...lol
just kidding ts... why on earth would we be talking about you???
Ruru, you are full of something today.
NOT...
right ruru, really quiet
lol, you'd be surprised... many talk about me :)
We often sit around being rude about people...but mostly LoriP...and she is here to hear it :)
welll... ms. snarky comment...

Are you speaking of Moi? I'm not quiet anywhere.
well i'm sure they do, but not in babbleland

The 3rd co7 is bugging me...I know the root, but it the ending easy?
sorry all, was watching puppycam09...
they ARE making funny little noises/
if you're a jew it's easy
i only have one co7 and i doubt that it is what you need
ty ruru! that realigned my vision
Puppies do do that.
the third co 7 is not the hottest
hello, there, i think you need the one that ends in a dinner plate
i am a jew. so, what is easy?
OY. I've been caught with that again. One word left...
yw mag...
stid- I watched with my kids last night...they were making cute noises....so precious
lol
haha.. the dinner plate is the one that i did have!
hi everybody - haven't been chatting lately, life is coming back around to normal

Jbv, I'm glad things are working out for you :) I can only hope that for the rest of babbleland as well.
alright... i'm gonna head out
have a good night or day or afternoon all...
hi, jbv
that's a good word, dorens, cautiously optimistic, hubby is back home after 3 days in the hospital, but much awaited procedure is complete, he is already feeling better, doesn't need me quite as much, so i will have more time to babble!
how bizarre, I just noted that the dog is actually watching the television, but he is not making any cute noises.
g'night alison
oh, good news about hubby, jbv
sweet dreams alison
bye ts. and I don't understand the bit about people talking about you, but not very important i'm sure
excellent to read JBV.
that sounds like great news JBV
((((JBV))))
that is truly good news
i'm skipping over the part about how it took 3 days to have an outpatient procedure, but that's in the past, looking forward now
ok . time for me to move into a more comfy position in the other room with the laptop and open the list when i get there. brb
forward is the best direction to look, jbv. good for you
later dorens.

wtg dc

hi red
welcome salweena
It has been cold jmc, I am feeling it terribly.
thank you folks
Hi salwena. Welcome to the grid.
note sure of what I'm doing...just find as many words as possible? No time restraints??
hi, salwena. thx, yall
the grid changes every day at midnight grid time, salwena, which is US Central Time
until midnight central time is the only time restraint
My mom turned the TOASTER OVEN on in the kitchen today red, she's in Naples. God forbid she raise the thermostat...
back in a few ...walking Joey!
consider checking out the HELP above the chat log for starters...
lol beth
24-hour time frame to find all the words...
cool...
the only time restraint is the puzzle ends at midnight mountain time usa i think
tets
(it's like playing Boggle)
OK
scary time to be around during flip *shiver*
and how do we find the winner? Or what happens
careful where you type sal
beth, its cold, BUT. toaster Oven will not keep one warm. I've got heat up here and closed windows last night.
everyone's a winner!
we are all winners sal
when you finish, you'll see fireworks
if you get all the words there are fireworks!
oh....:-D
And I admit to wearing a wide assortment of clothes.
they are depression babies red. They have a lovely condo, but it goes against their grain to turn the heat on in Florida. Mom has reynaud's so she really notices any change in temperature
should we ask red?
so I am guessing that wosh has two OOs lol
nah, its just tons of layers 39 degrees, its unreal. Beth, I will admit ti took me hours to decide that windows ought to be closed....
it was only 8 degrees this am when i left for work. talk about a wide assortment of clothes. I looked like a walking good will dumpster
the high here today was 24 I am trying to feel for you red
lol beth
We have no insulation, and we have dying fruit crops. The fruit crop is sort of all this area has other than disney.
Yes jmc, my dad was complaining about needing a light jacket to sit on the lanai. I was not very sympathetic
Well guys, here in Australia, we are having extraordinary heat waves in the south
ah the beautiful oranges that attracted walt in the first place
Its cold, we are well, thin skinned.
lol no sympathy for you either sal
I live in Queensland on the beach and up here it's just 95 fahrenheit, but south, it's well over the 100 mark and the hottest it's been in recorded history!
sal, you need to send a little bit of that heat up this way.
I remember hovering around the heater in our uninsullated house in Houston when it hit 39
laugh....would if I could
I'll take it Salw.
today I walked out in 20s with my coat open
Floods though in northern Australia....my sister is stranded with no fresh foods at all
I would rather be hot any day
jmc, no wonder you are cold. Today I wished my coat was with me, not in NC.
ooo bad news sal
hope she has canned at least
do they have cooling centers there for people without air conditioning sal? We always have a rash of people who cant survive the heat otherwise
has canned...but limited supplies even of those
what's the news on your house red?
I don't know bethn! I know that the hospitals are overcrowded with heat affected people and multiple heat related deaths
my friends all think I am nuts because I only have a ceiling fan in my bedroom but DC isn't that hot compared to Texas
hope the waters subside and your sis can get to higher, drier ground
No news. it showed 5 times last weekend, no Offers yet.
thanks for asking.
bummer red
that's so scary sal
will keep my fingers crossed red
sal they drop from heat in London when it hits the 80s F
thanks beth, we'll see, if they would pass the stimulus I think people would have more buying confidence....
Clue for the last RE 5/14 please?
There are photos in Melbourne where it's been 44 degrees C...don't know the conversion ...for several days, of a koala that came to the verandah of a house to drink water out of a bowl...and then climbed right in!! So, so cute!!! AND very unusual for these shy animals
especially if they give you $5000 tax credit to buy a house
NM! Just got it!
done again caree
jmc...laugh....just at 80F...!!!
omg that is 111 F Sal
80 is 26 C

Big bushfire danger of course
I do need one of the RE 5/14 near the top of the RE list though.
it's still a tad warm (nice) here as well...it'll cold and wet this weekend they say...50's by next week...
