ok, I need a little advice please
ask away, mrp
fire away mr. p
very small, but not the smallest for the te 8 and the te 9
at your service
I just don't see it vash
the te9 is a variant spelling
neither do I -- not enough Ss
add a letter to the te 8
I am hosting a soccer committee get together in 2 weeks... at my house. I want to pull together finger food, drinks and some music... it is kind of like "welcome to 2009 season". How much should I put into this for 10 people?? and should I invite their partners??
partners are good only if you do pot luck
pot luck... like byo food?
bring something to share
salads appetizers chips
that would help... should I suggest to people what I would like them to bring?
is this coming out of your own pocket?
that's what we usually do then you don't get 8 of the same thing
I am a very fingerfood orientated person for stand up parties. I would get in service too
got that #$%^* te9
yes it is west
good for you jilli
good for you jilli
is it that bad jilli???
i think I need more cluing on it
yeah jill
hi flosey :))
hi mrp
as vash said, add a letter (in the middle)
how long since you've had a party? go for it
long time indeed
mrp, invite partners and make it a finger-food pot-luck
hello all,
hi cj
I just don't get the add a letter??? can't see a letter worth adding
hi cj
hi cjmom :)
ah! got it... nm
stupid head way of spelling it
got it!
I still don't have a word for the i to the right :(
I really feel dumb now
I also want to have a party in March, for the family.... a housewarming party. Will check with you all then about availability... I assume you will all be coming along??
looks lonely lol
well of course
I've actually seen that before
mrp, be sure to designate someone to bring ice...can never have too much
argggggggggggggggggggggggggh
ah, we are the ice kingdom here.
ruru!! what is wrong darlingpet!?
in5 = an alloy of iron and nickel having a low coefficient of thermal expansion; used in tuning forks and measuring tapes and other instruments
good afternoon all
I was about to ask that...ruru
I finally found it
i am so dumb...
hi rlee
oh good on you ruru!
I'll be damned jilli
silly, eh ruru?
hey!! no self-harm naming allowed on my watch!!
oops sorry
I'll be hornswoggled?
sorry for what?
gobsmacked?
hi rlee! long time no see :)
you were talking to ruru?
hi rlee!
ty jili
finally got it
thanks jilli
hi mrp how are you
ah, ruru is in trouble for calling himself dumb... I take offence to namecalling!
flosey -- you mean you got the in5 from that???
good darling! how have you been?? surviving the heat?
naughty Ruru
I agree, we all know better
I have cl /re/te for 8's other 2?
no - lol, monkeyed it, then checked on the meaning
ce 8 too
mrp -- I think west and I thought youwere referring to west saying "I'll be damned"
it has been really awful here, was watching the news last night so many homes lost
missing the last one
sorry for saying damned?? oh that is nothing to be sorry for
ty ruru
then to find out a volunteer fighter started alot of them is really depressing
I don't have the re8 (hate re words)
Rlee, I can't believe how many homes went! and people dying from this heat... not right
no it isn't
Unfortunately, it isn't the first time... those people need to be psych tested time and time again
beyond me how people can deliberately set fires
jilli, I sit on the fence with you about re words
I understand the mesmerising notion of the flame, but the damage... you must know what damage you are going to be causing to others... that is what creeps me out!! It is deliberate and murderous.
he puts a price on it jilli
again
ty west (thinking)
perhaps he wants to be the hero
I need two volunteers please?? to move my table to infront of the air con
got the re8 -- ty west
west, I do believe that is the problem with this psychopath
good
sorry just trying to get these 8's...
it's not uncommon unfortunately
a small fire and then dryness and wind and it's horrible
mrp -- did you see my question about the whip, or is it soccer day?
one of the biggest fears for sunday is the winds... with temps of 45C+ (115F), we are in trouble cause it will be gale force winds
I didn't see the question jilli!! what did you ask?
popping in and then popping out, but jilli ---- you've outdone yourself in the icon arena; pure genius!!!
really terrible weather, mrp!
thanks, mab!
hi-larious :D
just saw it jilli the mounties are in the chog
I only have cl8 and te8, how do the others start please?
ce
just got re8, flosey
ce and re don't have the last
thanks ru
and re
and est
and west
oh dear! something has happened to chat!!
my FIL actually had a liquor decanter like that
what fun, west!
it made getting a bourbon and water a whole new experience
did it contain the bourbon?
re8 is another
when he got it? don't think so
just got the ce8
that is a very common expression here with an a for the last syllable means excellent
jilli, can you clue for me hun??
jilli, what did you ask about the weather darling?
got the ce8
I mean... 'hint' for me... *trudges off to PB, there better be aircon in there!*
ce8 -- a mild form of what you like to do to the fire-setter
(lame hint)
got it, thanks
ty jilli
good hint jilli!!
yw
yw
could I please have a clue for the re8?
put a price on it again plural
to re (have worth for something ) flosey
west, are you still having trouble updating the icons -- I mean, getting to see the current one in the chog?
thanks ru

and west
yw flosey
eh ... not a problem ... eh
now it's backwards the little picture is the old icon but when I click I get the new one
thanks, got them
ruru, do you have all the 8's??

morning all
thank you
good morning puppy mother
hi josh -- hi sprite :)
can't wait to get our puppy home :D
you left just as I was coming back on yesterday sprite wanted to tell you I saw the pix
they're really healthy looking
yes they are :) And they get the best of care. Cute, aren't they? Little heaps of wrinkled fur!
so sweet
did you all help pick the official name?
no the official name is given by the breeder. We decided on Terra in time, so our name was added to the official one.
I see
I would never call a little bit of nothing Lionheart, lol. It makes me smile every time I see the official name. You think we should change to Terror?
no I like Terra
I think he will have a nice disposition
we do too, just joking
I just know he'll live up to the first part of his name
so far it looks that way. Quite lively, but not always on top of his siblings. So looking forward to seeing him in re4 and getting to cuddle him!
how long will that be?
we can visit as often as we want from age 2 weeks on.
easy 100 but one blank tile
right hand i josh?
I bet I know which tile is your blank ;)
yep
lol
thought so -- we all lacked that one
sprite that will be so much fun will she be sending pix right along?
just don't see it yet
really? are clues up and people still don't know it?
she does all the time, west. What I have is in my flickr, and will probably get more today. She also will try to send us a vid.
in5/16
i put the words in lickety in bulk form but nothing is getting added ? any clues, i have refreshed and even closed and tried again
are the others spoken for?
no clues up yet, josh

oops -- PB for me -- no HINTS up yet
NBT then, with assist from jillibus
nm now i know why
does anyone have the se8... if so, could you gently guide me to it?
wtg, josh -- hope I didn't spoil your masochistic fun, lol!
lol Rlee, indeed. Lickety is often late on Friday, other occupations!
hi dee that's the one I'm missing
maybe there isn't one lol
don't have an se8 -- just an se7
i have 2 se7's
no se8 yet
I thought you called it west
I did but I un called it only had the 7
at 12:34... so maybe that is not the last 8 :)
probably not then thought you had some inside info
not getting anywhere now -- bedtime -- night all!
night jillibus
ok... so still need to look for last 8...:)
night jilli, sleep well
good night and happy dreams jilli

sprite...'cept..its snowing round us again...and the snow is heading for belfast tomorrow..lol
aw I found a valid hero dog!
have a dear friend from there and haven't heard from her for a while
rolin, I think you have every reason to be grumpy! Stupid weather. Heartless weather gods.
west... surrey is under snow much like us.. not enough to be dangerous thank goodness...but enough to close schools and upset ppl
josh I have 5 se 7's
did anybody get a chance to see the transcript and recording of the air traffic controllers and the pilots during the time when the plane was landing in the river in nyc
sprite ty...thats what i needed...some complimentary grumping...
much more than you're used to?
Women understand that need, rolin :)
I saw that on the news josh
it's a really amazing thing to read or listen to - true professionals at work
oh yes west MUCH more... more snow than ive ever seen in my life..lol
ty dee i have 3 so far
not the transcript
josh..i want that guy piloting all my plane flights pls

appropriate for the lazy man

mrp....did lickety have any idea the burden he was taking on when he first posted the clues??..lol

too scared to say anything !!!
come on lobo, slip up and come to us!
we have wine and cheese!
I made a 4 layer dip too!
okay, updated now
a 4 layer dip? Do tell!
If I type penis one more time!!! I might hang myself!
ooh...
plural, mrP, plural. Bad girl.
thanks ardilla!
ty sprite
there was a male organ in yesterday's grid too :p
oh god i got the te8/9
well, you start with mashed beans, put on a layer of sour cream, then a layer of salsa, then a layer of gaucamole.... serve with corn chips
oh sounds great! Am going to try that some day.
gratz josh.
*likes the music from male organs*
I prefer to reverse the sour cream to the top... cause then the avocado doesn't brown... but it is gone so fast, don't matter!
hee hee hee
male organs or skin flutes?
what is a skin flute?
nah not too skinny
ty lore for te8 1st biggie today
well done ardilla
I have 4/5 of the biggies
that te8 leads to the te9, btw
i've got the other biggy
I need an 8
yay mrp!!
sure you do josh! LOL 8D
here you go mrP: 8
I have the nine... do you have 9 josh??
oh i got a 9
still missing one 8 here, also
LOL! :D
only one 9. 5x8. Still 2x8 missing here, but will find them.
grrr...haven't knokeyed it yet
missing 2 8's here also
missing 1 x 8
*monkeyed
knokeyed! Wow I love that word.
there is ce8, cl8, re8 and te8
easy enough, but one of the 8's must be b!tchy!
mrP, you are sitting close enough to me, can you please kick me hard when I try tennessee again?
that is a great phantom sprite!
my phantom is sensei
we have a huge bushfire in our area! oh shit!!
you know it and I know it. Only my fingers refuse to believe it!
except it's not a phantom because it's an actual word and babble is wrong
not a proper noun josh?
nah, missing one E to complete it, josh
I can cope with it being a 'word' if you break it up into 3 segments! LOL
still seeing penis
not a proper noun that i know of
what do you mean missing an e?
penis penis penis
mrP I have su8
what is the 5th 8 that I am missing?
oh ard!! don't tease me!!!
tennessee woud need 4 Es, or not?
ah, ok... will go look... is it fishy?
tennesse ... 3 I think
not quite fishy but it is almost a compound. Prefix plus word.
oh - well, sure. but the word i was talking about was not tennessee
no, it's 4
ty sprite for the su 8
sensei is a word and enable is stoopid
believe the person with the japanese flag on this, folks
no predicting which foreign words are enabled in Enable
I can't believe some of the words allowed!
and then there are some that are banned cause of racism... but in another country, they are accepted
eg... coon, dago, abos... but it won't accept american racism
enable may be a given, but so is our astonishment about it, lol
coon has other meanings, to be fair. at least here it does
here, it is derogatory, and a product name... go figure
wow, got the su8 - thanks whoever it was that mentioned it. odd word
sprite mentioned it :)
I still can't find it of course!
oh right. *nudges sprite next to him* nice work
*takes bow* I am the babbler that finds the odd words and is blind to the normal ones...
mrP: go on top and then stop it!
josh, is that your mouse pressing up against my back?? *pb is getting very crowded!*
Hey everyone - sorry for the delay of clues - it's being down now. Computer malfunction due to heat I think
sorry mrp - i have a wide clicking stance
it's okay lickety how are you?
being done now I meant. mrp - love your icon - that's my favorite pic. Do people know who's eye it is?
*coughs from elbow in ribs* My pleasure, josh, my pleasure...
hi Lickety
hey lynxxx and sprite!
it is mrPs eye of course.
hi lickety and ty
I assume so... it is in my bio
hello lickety
oh, I thought it was the apple of Lickety's eye
lol that too, lyn!
did you see my cryptic hint, mrP-
I looooove that eye
oooh, cryptic hint... will go look!
3.21 am mrP
got it TY Sprite, nice hint
thanks lyn ±'
I mean thanks lyn :)
clue is great... I just can't get it!
I see it, but I can't see it
my 'eye' isn't working for me!
upper left corner, mrP
ahh, for the su8 you mean
oh man clue maker is having issues indeed
*removes one wall from PB to make room*
are the u's fishes?
i will protect my scotch hose with my life - and i've got the crazy eyes, so watch out
suckless?? I have no idea!!
i got the re6/18; is it part of an 8?
the 2nd part of Sprite's cryptic has 5 letters
sprite, have you got a builder's permit to do that???
maybe i'll save my last 69 for tomorrow
not really, ardilla. un x 5. Then think pee x 4. Lichen x 2. Part of eye x 3.
69 for tomorrow then :D
although it is sad it will be your last
mrP I am removing, not building!
no ardilla
re 8 is pl for re 7/44
Clues are up
i lied - i got to 69 and couldn't stop. so now i'm at some other confusing position
ty so much lickety
LOL josh!
yah lickety!!!
cl5/14 are up just in time for me to get my last 8
wtg josh... still have 36 left here
you are between mrP and me, josh. I can believe that is confusing. But safe. In most ways.
no gay stuff
TY Volley
I don't know how safe he is sprite... he admitted to a 9'er!
josh, you don't strike me as 'fruity'
mrP and I are not gay, so that is a promise.
yay!
i'm not fruity, but i don't have scurvy either
ah, he swings like a saloon door in a summer breeze!
*giggles*
josh - are the girls ganging up on you?
oh josh, I just knew you as joshuavorbis... now, you take on a whole new animal!!!
65 - i think that position involves a midget and a boomerang
ty sprite got 3 u's and 2 more BTs
wow
wtg ardilla!
can I be the boomerang?
you are thinking of 39'er josh....
sprite, you can be my boomerang anytime
this grid is being evil to me since the last one was nice...grrr
i will throw you and wait for you to wander back
*does happy dance*
68 could only happen with a 2 headed llama
it just wants you to stay challenged and interested, ardilla, I am su4!
61 involves a stripper pole i think
fiddle sticks...*gives up and goes to the list
63 is with a clown with a baseball cap on
lol ard! fiddlesticks... you crack me up!
58 is a snake and handcuffs
I know that phrase fiddle sticks from Little Lord Fauntleroy!
hmmm kinky mrP!
i dunno - 3 looks like an open handcuff to me
8 is closed handcuffs
exactly
odd eu 7 word don't think I have ever se4 that one before
josh and mrp - have you been to the same club or something?
I prefer it that way... you can use a safe word if you are chicken
Fiddlesticks - do kids still play with them?
hellfire club?? of course!! we grew up there
it is a mineral, Dee
aww ty sprite... no wonder I didn't know :)
hi lynxx!!
I remember because first time around I thought it was something good-something. But it has nothing to do with eu- good.
jilli freaked me out with the word 'frock' this arvo... now fiddlesticks?? what a time warp!
hi MRP... O heard some part of yr State was going to be the hottest place on Earth tomorrow
maybe that will help me remember next time
oh yes lynxx... we are gonna be cooking!
nothing like a nice frock
got the eu7 - i think i've seen that word before
WAIT, it's my safe word. what am i saying
yeah, rock up in my frock
is frock your safe word!!??? LOLOLOLOL
not certain you pronounced it correctly, josh, alas. Can't stop for a wrong word.
now I AM worried Josh
i know. it's a bloodbath up in here
the PB needs to get some air!!
well, ok, mrP and I might make you sore. But never sorry.
i'm a big boy. i can handle it
LOL sprite! that a girl!
:)
well josh, you certainly have measured me up!! more than once! having fun here
btw josh, still no girl on girl connotations... so delete scene

i have te9
could you give a tiny clue?
ass a letter somewhere to the 8 , is that vague enough for ya ? lol
tiny is a clue initself lol
add not ass woops
Sorry Madison , you DID NOT see that word lol
hmmm-that gave me an 8, but don't see the 9 yet
position 5 is the extra letter
no my mum found it
poke
just another spelling of the 8
Holy crap a moly! Over 70 s's. Yuk
TONS of S's , working on them now
still don't get it. The first part if the plural of the adolescents, right?
no singular
the plural letter is after the added letter to make it the 9
finally got the 9 tyvm kris
yvmw
and i'm halfway
so there is 2 TE 8s?
Just 1 Te 8
and 1 Te 9
ok ta

yes it is
yw
morning everyone:)
gm cross
hi cross
hi cross
G'd morning cross
hi crossy
hi crossy, bye crossy, bbl!
hb ata
something i have learnt is that somtimes the plural of a world is an actual word, even though i wouldn't belive it
that's very true , they get me sometimes too !
mummy asked me to ask you, what are monkeys?
the creatures that find strange and odd words
lol as a matters of forms,in babbles i pluralizes everythings:))
mm
monkeys are the creatures that furiously type searching for words in the grid.
hi crosshair, mum told me about you and you are a really nice man.
howdy ,when you get older ill tell you all the funny names your mum calls me:)
ANd Crossy is fibbing
nise
opps
tell me now i am concidered as a mature youngster
it's oaky not a word
WHAT is a family JUDGE doing with files OUTSIDE of a court grrrr
*okay
???
Ok a Family Court Judge took out of the court the real documents and the vehicle with said documents got stolen
uh oh
uh oh
would of done better to scan then at court with a offline computer and transfer them over to a thumb drive
genius
I am not amused. I thought that original documents had to be lock boxed and such. Not in a sodding brief case.
he could of had them all on a chain round his neck
When it comes to case files great care has to be taken with files outside of court.
***comes up for air, still grumbling about s's***
happens here all the time..tax information in a dumpster outside a revenue office...old doctors files in a land fill
hey herin, how are you goiong to spend Easter? Email mum your plans and adress
They go fairly quickly Lori , I'm finished with them
people "dumpster diving"
A quick hello before I leave for the auto shop--routine maintenance + whatever they discover needs fixing for big bucks
its disgusting. Those sort of things have to be stored I think for about 7 years then shredded
oh damn Scrabbler
ive bought a personal shredder for this very reason herin
Good to know Kristine. G'd morning Scrabbler!
hi scrabbs
gm Scrab
i just did that scrabbs....$565.00!!
a famous TV dog is in the grid
Yes, it's always more than you expect or desire to pay
Sounds as exciting a way to spend the day, as an afternoon at the IRS Scrabbler. :/
HA we top that with a nearly $800 bill for an alternator that crapped out along with a battery
:(
oh i noticed that lori and cross are from canada
Good Morning everyone!
indeed eh:)
Hi red
A friend is picking me up, then we play tennis, have lunch, shop, laugh, then go back to get my car. That's when I pull out the credit card.
hi rth
G'd morning red

i love canada because in year 1 we did an around the world sports like olympics at our school and the country i was in was canada

i love turtles
brb must make the offsrings lunch..semi-poof
babrab it is maddison
How are your toes doing, Maddison?

And what are you doing up Maddy?Its very late even i am thinking of sleep
great!
That is good Ardilla

I understand that Luke is a great guy
he watches me when i'm in the kitchen, like "whatcha doing?"

*poof
Bye Ardilla
oh, gads, the mom of those octuplets is going to be on TV this morning, defending her choices. it starts...the publicity, the sponsorships, etc. Can the Enquirer be far behind?
fireworks for me...
my wife loves that show 'jon and kate plus 8" personally o dont think a family should have all that glitz and glamour and cash just for pumping the lady full of fertillity drugs so she can have a litter:/
yay angel!
i am with you, crossy. gross
Can someone just take the kids of her. What she did was wrong.
I like the show too, but it really grates on my nerves how she talks to john
she is on now, saying she is "providing herself for her children"
Scratch that coment please
and that show 18 and counting?? what is thier issue? ever hear of birth control?
and now they have a pysch saying that the woman is obsessed.
I think her own mother said that
you think after 9 kids or so she would sleep with a knife to keep him out of the bed
the lady with 18 kids did use birth control when she was first married, and then she had a miscarriage and felt it was a message from god, telling them they needed to appreciate all babies, so they just kept having them
good morning everyone... catching a bit of the chog, and I have to agree...
having said that, my grandmother had 18 children...
on the 18 kids tho' I do envy there sticktoitness on family values
their
I don't know how they are finding the time to MAKE all those babies!
oh god..there are so many children in need and she uses resouces like they are thier own small town
(there was an old woman that lived in a shoe, she had so many children her uterus dropped out, plop)
rofl!
jon and kates weekly grocery bill is a bout 1700 u.s dollars so you can at least double that for the duggers
hang on, now the psych lady is bothering me. she is saying that with 14 kids, they will suffer neglect. I don't think that is a fair jump to make. many people have big families, and they know they are loved
I don't know how they afford to eat all organic, family of 5 and no way could I afford it
they are saying the hospital bill for the octs will be around a million and a half dollars, when all is said and done. Hope the taxpayers in california don't mind footing that bill!
re
organic?? omg that is so expensive here..we just eat what looks green and clean
I would have to say Trif, with 14 kids there will be some issues with giving the kids enough attention.
I am SURE the hospital will end up with that bill.
same here
I have three kids, if you asked THEM they will tell you all about how neglected they are.....
lol trif, we must live in the same house
Exactly Trif. And at least with the Duggars the kids are spaced and lots of the older children take part in a parenting role for the younger ones.
~!~!~!~!~FIREWORKS~!~!~!~!~
we have one son..and why do we have only a single child? cause 2 just like him would of been terrible;)
Yaaya Kristine.
thats bullocks
whoop- the school just called, the buses have frozen fuel lines, so they will be running late...yay! more babble time (totally neglecting child to babble)
Yah Kristine
wtg Kristine
yaa for kris:) 21 gun salute for you!
yay kristine!
:P on bus fuel lines, trif, I think you should have a snow day...but for your principal.
tyvm , time to get the little one off to the bus have a great day / evening everyone
lol trif re: babble and child neglect..did you know you can make a full brekkies for said child and a nutritious lunch in under 2 minutes?
I agree about the duggars, red, but I don't love that either - kids should be kids, not parents.
un
that way you dont even have to stop thinking bout babble words;)
Yes, I am WAY aware of that crossy. Tertiare is a conscientious breakfast objector, so not really an issue here
I agree with that too Trif, kids should be kids, but I think its better than this nutty lady with the octuplets and no financial plan.
oh, def Red. 18 kids is not my idea of a fun time.
un
but I do admire how the duggars make it work. That woman is a goddess of organization
ahh crap...another foot of snow;(
this may already be known but I don't know, so how did she get the implants? who in their right mind woulda allowed that
I have to say Mrs Duggars voice to me is so sickly sweet she grates on my nerves.
that is a big, big question, jor. the doctor who did the implants broke the law in Cali by implanting too many eggs
Anyone know if 3 uv's is right?
jorjah, they usually iomplants a lot of embryos because some usually die...in octo ladies case, none died.
va
but the law in Cali say that women under 35 should only have 2 or 3 max
I thought you had to go through counseling and screening.... who would do that with a woman with 6 kids and living in a 3 bedroom house with her parents and unmarried???
and even women over 40 should only have 4 at max
crossy gets down on his knees and thanks the lord that we are done with babies:)
Octopus
Wierdly on the today show this lady says all her kids were through implants.
you do, jor, you do. that is another issue. really, it borders on malpractice
***if the octuplets were Babbling and had 3 uv's, would that be correct?***
I think it was malpractice. And I imagine if we follow this story she is going to end up with either using the kids for endorseents, or with Child Protective svcs involved.
lorip, I am not ignoring you! I just haven't gone to lickety yet, so I don't know
i dunno lorip...I have 99 words.
I think IF you don't have to have any assistance from the gov.... NONE..... then have as many as you want, but we are struggling to put 3 thru college and then you have an idiot that has that many and can't afford them..... adopt them out... brangelina is always looking to add more to their brood
lol I'm very sensitive you know. Guess I shoulda' added the :D
OkI have some things to do. See you all later.
on a topic other than families overpopulating the world with litters..i did a new thing yesterday,made sweet potao frittes;) they we amazing!
potato even
and if I were John, I'd pop Kate in the mouth...I'm really good at solving world problems lol
Silence is golden Duct Tape is Silver
i feel bad for jon,i keep thinking if i were him id find a handy pier to walk off of;0
lol
3 uv
she (kate) is nasty
my wife talked to me like that she would be husband hunting
primo has a tee shirt with that saying on it, herin...
Sorry, I've come in late - who's Kate (besides me)?
http://successnet.org/articles/angier- judgmental.htm
jorja is a problem solver! lolol Mercy Buckets BR, finally found it, there were 4 6/21's. Sneaky
I found mine with it on it the other day.
On one episode where John cooked the korean dish and was gonna do the recipe she shushed him cause she didn't want everyone knowing it
lol I've been cooking that longer than they've known each other and it just po'd me like she thought she had the secret nobody else knew about
crossy, when I was in Dominica, we used to have pumpkin fritters a lot, and they were LOVELY
not to mention she isn't korean, jor
What am I missing?
must taste a lot alike:) but i was surprised how good it was trif;)
fritters in any form are heaven on a plate.
uh oh.... what did I solve?
*peers in* ihi all can't stay you are making me too hungry
it's called pul go gi... I know the spelling isn't right but it is awesome!!!!
all i used was 2 tablesppons of top quality olive oil and a nice hot pan;)
i was prop mistress for a play once, and had to make corn fritters every night, since the actors had to eat them on stage. always made up a few extra, of course...by the end of the run we all weighed about 10 pounds extra
lol trif
marinate meat in brown sugar, sesamee seed, sesamee oil, ginger root, garlic soy sauce green onions then grill it
makin me hungry jorja...
Hmmm. Guess no-one's gonna tell me what I've missed, cuz I don't know who any of these cooking type people are :(
((((stomach now growling))))
Hi Matty
***Waves Hi to TO from the back of the room***
and TO
lol hiya matty, we are talking about the woman that gave birth to 8, and talking about John and Kate
*waves back from the right side corener*
ahh matty we were talking bout the families that breed kids like animals and have litters ie: jon and kate plus 8
matty, the free money, fame and sponsorship of large families via TV seems to be the gist of it.
have ya'll seen the new house that kate and john bought?
rather a vicious commentary
I am calling her Octopus lady
Vicious, but arguably accurate.
Octo-pud seems more appropriate
aah - I'm a guessing this is primarly about the octuplets?
but then we got tired of that and started talking bout nice frittes recipies;) which is a much better topic as it makes crossy happy
bus stop run....brb
All this work, and still missing 5 stoopid s's. Ack
where i am people tend to have large families naturally.. i was surprised to see how many of my coworkers come from families of 5 and more
Hello all
natural is ok
was surprised to find the se 7/32 all by myself
matty, here in N.A. there are several large families that have "reality" TV shows, a term I use loosely.
the duggers are strange but they did it natural
and they are all college educated even if they had to work for it, although most got scholarships for their brains
Wow, what a radical concept TO. It could never work. :D
I HATE reality shows
with a passion
really i guess it's that many are irish or german/irish catholic. it is a bit cheaper to raise f amily in the city. unthinkable now we all need ten cars and a small ranch
my daughter watches nearly all of them
jorja, I have a sexy se 7, and a plural combo so far.
good morning
Hi carlee
lol TO, Mornin' carlee
i always tell the wife i cant stand reality shows.when i make it home after a hard day at work,the last thing i want to watch is reality..if i wanted more reality in my life id open a window;)))
hi herin
can you hint the plural please?
Morning Carlee
damn it now i want jello pudding Thanks on the pud comment
matty, I'm with you. Nothing real about having every waking moment filmed.
we don't do reality tv here either..other than american idol once they down to the top choices...hate the audition part
ec
jorja, se + double consonant + the alien that phones home
carlee;) didnt see you there with your new icon:)
its an old one but hi
ooh, just scrolled up, lol there's a lot of se 7's.....

My daughter didn't even watch this year's British big brother, which is saying something
There's a sexy se7? Where? Where?
en
hi inge...you trying to tell us something hun?
5 se 7s
ummm they advertise on tv alot of oil that makes you have that se feeling
slippery? slimey?
The only realty tv i like to watch is Big Brother whilst eating really crappy food
stinky from the perfumes?

hello everyone!!
hiya annie

hi annie :)
G'd morning Annie of Brooklyn! :)
Hi carlee and Lori!
LOL Lori, told him you waved hi.... he said "huh? who's Lori?
the jan numbers down...3 worst month ever for USA over 500 000 laid off
Nono, me too, I send my greetings to your hubby too
hi to nono's hubby
locally in our town (pop 16,000) since oct 2008 we have laid off 1/8th of our population
passed them on Annie..... got same response
I knew that'd catch him off guard Nono. :)
The job loss in the US is very worrisome..hope this stimulus package helps
I DON"T WANNA GO TO WORK...I want to stay home in my jammas
hint for ae6....please
we are suffering right with you annie
carlee, then take the day off, can you?
then do it carlee!
Sorry aeb, I haven't touched the a yet.
back. welcome to carlee, annie, and aeb, nono, and everyone else I missed whilst at the bus
welcome back ,trif
wb Tri
hi Trif and all
now im thinking of "magic bus" ))
ae 6 ---- add sea gods: **pt*ne*
i can't.... I have to go... <sigh> the woman we had working part time got a temp full time job for 3 months...and then going on maturnity leave...
hi trifs
it is SO cold out...but it is gonna warm up this weekend, thank gods and goddesses
purple feet for carlee again;)
just read the comment about the stimulus, does anyone know how much they are talking about?
ty BR
I thought that was a proper name.
Morning, Babblers!
purple feet..yeap...actually I have NOTHING to do but set there today
morning judi
Last I heard it was between 800 and 900 BILLION
i think we up to almost 900 bil
hi Judi
G'd morning Judi
wonder how much that will be per couple
Hi Judi
Oh, God. Don't get me started on the stimulous bill. There's more pork than stimulous.
I wonder how much will be just ridiculous pork - that is what worries me....
then bring your lappy carlee and babble away at work:)
geesh, that answers THAT question. oh, no judi, that is just what I have been fearing....
lol Judi, sadly, yep and it's the same here. One need only look at the Banking bailout
phone
i can babble at work...I don't have a laptop... but I don't have expert there....so I go listless when there
dont even want to talk about the exec golden hanshake packages
It's absurd. Every time Obama opens his mouth, the stock market tumbles further and the House and Senate ask for more money. Americans should be good and pissed off. I know I am.
jorjah what do you mean.. how much per couple?
right there with ya judi
***dives quietly back in to the grid***
like last time it was what 1200 for married people?
and we are joined at the hip with the U.S everytime you sneeze we need a hanky
obama has been president for two weeks judi. How can you blame him for what he has inherited?
well....this situation took more then 2 weeks to create... its not going to be fixed in 2 weeks
I don't blame him, Trif. I'm just saying, he's adding fuel to an already out-of-control fire.
No he isn't.
and time for crossy to dive into the grid...sploosh!
and on this cheerful note... " you got that lovin feeling....whoa that loving feeling..." gotta run
I agree on the 2 weeks, but I really resent how right before elections for example, gas prices dropped now they are climbing again, NOT saying that's his fault just it's just a pissy situation
now HERE is a cheering news story - someone has released a photo of a police car filled with strippers and a cop - apparently the cops hired the strippers for an officer's retirement party, and then drove them in a cop car to a strip bar for them to perform for the officers. EXCELLENT use of our tax dollars....
never heard bush say the big wigs should get less money
byeeee Carlee
***c'mon in crossy, the water's great!***
and the city of boston will be laying off 400 teachers next week. excellent
Any clue for the cl6/24 AFTER the 8/45?
I'm coming in too Lori....... SPLASH!
Nuff said about politics. I believe there is a draft of the "stimulous bill" posted at www.USA.gov. Judge for yourselves.
***moves over to make room for Nono***
thanks judi! would be good to look at what it includes, thanks for the link!
At least he is trying to fix things rather than being Trying
***crossy, 'yer a little close... :D***
:))
love theese 4 person babble hot tubs;)
oh lord, just saw the upcoming interview preview for the octy mom, she favors angelina
apparently he has that lovin' feeling Lori
hot tub....does that ever sound like heaven right now....
Matty ...what a safety pin is used for
guys? Anyone for that cl6/24 after the 8?
lolol mag. Babble makes me smile
how many words today?
259 deb
crossy turns on the water jets,turns the temp up a tad and add a drop of aroma therapy....
Oops, sorry matty, I haven't touched the c yet either.
I've got those - it's the one after the eight I need ...
thanks :)
Matty ....see 8:01
After the word meaning 'having more decorium'
the only cl6 I have is Santa Cl***
Thanks Jorj! That was the one I was after

Hi Luc!
*raises commuter mug in toast* Morning, Montreal13!
need clue for the nine letter word please.
gm and raises cup to eyes, Annie and Judi !
morning, all! phone duty this AM, so will be in and out.
Hi varina
gm fuqua
just starting mkg - dont have it...
can't believe there are 37 Cs...
monty! haven't seen you in ages! all good?
no kidding... still have 10 of them to go and it seems impossible
fine here trif thanks - how are you and the entire number'S family ?
9? haven't found a 9 yet
lol...numbers! a quick click on my profile will show you how T has been, but the rest of us are fine, and he is recovering beautifully....
checking trif...
The 9 starts with Te.
oh, whoops. hang on monty
how T is doing seems to be missing Trif....arrggghhh
What happened to T?
beed ae 6 please.
it's there now...it had dropped off....
guess trif is updating her profile Annie...
Primo ended up in the ER with a serious gastro and dehydration, but he is better now. He insisted I take his photo with his phone, how boy-ish is THAT? totally cracked me up
These ens are hard - there are just too many possiblities, none of which seem to work :)
good morning/afternoon :)
glad to hear he's better trif... - hi nan !
Primo is sick, Trif. Hope he mends ASAP
Trif, Glad Primo is on the mend..scary indeed
he is doing better, day by day. he is still a disgusting color though. ick.
http://clusterstock.alleyinsider.com/2 009/2/aig-implodes-the-two-cows-versio n
LOL, Trif. That's probably why he took his own picture. Boys like to look gross.
you have to feed these growing boys trif !!
how are you managing the rather unexpected weather there, monty?
matty... en5 or follow your dreams then pl
well trif, we're still in the cold part (minus 13 C, roughly 6 or 7 F) right now - yesterday, t'was minus 18 and a windchill factor of minus 27C (minus 15F maybe?) - we're supposed to get rain this weekend though..."sigh"
en = su4 then plural are the others
oh dear! are the schools operating, or has the place pretty much shut down?
Thanks Nono :)
yw
"All ok on this front" - situation normal, schools are open as usual...
that's good. maybe the rain will soften things up?
raining in february in Montreal is never good b/c undoubtably, it will get colder again and all of that water will freeze leaving us with a HUGE skating rink to walk and work in...
Strap on the hockey skates, Montreal. Skate to work.
Morning all. Clue for the I, please?
really wish i could Judi !
i keep meaning to take a photo of the kiddos skating on the driveway. will make a point to do it today, before it warms up
hi bzzn !
I in***iably forget that this is a word
We use YakTraks. They are small coils of metal strung from rubber that slips over your shoe/boot. Works
hi Bea
Yak Traks bichon ? sounds like a great idea !
yak traks! oh, I forgot about those....gotta pair around here somewhere, wonder where they are?
My husband has some of those, Bichon. And yet, he still manages to fall down. He blames the dog for pulling him via the leash, but I think he's just a spaz.
It's so easy to blame the dog.
TY, FV.
tx varina for I word
yw, bea
We also have crampons. When I got the car stuck on the ice in the driveway, he used them to push
I say: gotta be the dog's fault !
NBT and I think I will take a break.
poor dogs, get blamed for everything! lol
crampons are also used in mtn climbing...
I once tripped over the dog and badly sprained my ankle. I still didn't blame him. I only blame him wihen he has accidents in the house
later bzzn
When in Canada, Mr. Miyagi says: "Cramp on. Cramp off."
Ice climbing with crampons is fun
lol judi
And, when you stamp your foot, do the lights turn off? (Clap on, Clap off?)

UNIIIIII
Hi, Uni, nice to see you
screw it...i might as well finish
Hi Haz and Ata!
I thought yesterday was tricky, but I flew through that compared to this!
funny, uni -- I really struggled with yesterday's but this one is going smoothly for me so far
HAZZZZZZZZ!!
Good morning/afternoon all!
awesome clue haz
9...
Glad you liked it, ardilla!
lol haz
Whoa, double post. Sorry guys,my internet has pooped out again, so I can barely babble, let alone chat :(
I saw a Spangle this morning in the woods
bad internet! BAD!
uv4/5 uv5/18 x2
And was he/she beautiful?
Haz, that clue was hilarious---the uv
he/she was!
It is bad internet. Entering words 3 and 4 times is tiring. LOVES the uv clue Haz! (as I do you)

Hello Annie and Uniquity - nice to see you again.
at least it's your internet -- I enter words 3 or 4 times due to bad memory
but then I saw the weirdest looking dog. it had a whippet head and a pit bull body. it was either very fat or very pregnant
Haz, so glad to see you and the Spangle!
heh, funny: you can't be a little bit pregnant, but you can be very pregnant
I'll have to confess that the dog in the picture isn't actually Spangle, just a nice photo I found. But they're bound to be related, bound to be.
hint for us5 pls?
remember cl4/5 is a word today say hint instead
us5 - what the dyslexic man said to Mr Connery
lol -- you are *on* today Haz
Haz, thanks!
We're going to run out of u words soon, aren't we?
You're welcome, Annie.

Glad to help, ardilla.
Since our resident chef is here, I wonder: Have you got an ultra delicious potato salad recipe in your back pocket Haz? (or anyone)?
I keep thinking I have a lot of greys and then I realize they were grey when I started *sigh*
I haven't anything special to offer, Uni, nothing dramatic.
6...
3 6's and 3 7's left...yuck
all s's
hi everyone that i didn't greet earlier
you always have special things!
Uni, did I hear a rumour that the Kitten of Glory is facing surgery?
The KoG is past five months now and needs a good spay..there is drama in how she will get it, but I trust it will work out. Don't tell her though...she will be away from me to get it, and she does NOT like to be away from me.
Nothing special for potato salad, though.
5...
thanks for u clues. got called away by phone.
My lips are sealed, I will not inform her of the ghastly fate that awaits. One of our clients once solemnly enquired how much it cost to splooter a cat.
I have to get on with my day...bye, dear babblers
bye annie
Bye Annie dear.
bye annie
now all se's
could someone c the last ce6?
I'm curious, what is the cost of spaying in the UK (approximately)?
ce +su4/5
from £30-50 ish
ce + I am positive I am ***e + vowel
Could someone please offer a hint or one of the 'I's?
I'm not sure - let me ring the surgery to find out.
Where I am it is 230 + 150 bucks worth of appointments first. At Lori's it is 110. Obviously, Emma is going to visit Lori.
hint for 1st se7?
Man, I need to live in the UK. Everything I want/need is cheaper there!!

oops -- thanks ard; I meant 'i' not 'L'
I think Hobbit's was about £50 but that was a few years ago
but we do have animal charity places that will do it for free
Hi fellow Babblers! How is the grid... looks like a biggish one
Spoke to Mr Haz - £35 roughly
hi beach - fun one so far
yep, so you're getting screwed, Uni
2...
And naturally he wanted to know if I had a prospective client for him - he'd do a better deal if you were needing 10 cats done.
su 8/50 please
find the canadian society for animal happiness and ask if there are any low-cost neutering places near you
BR's hint in + ***iety is the spice of life
he can operate on 10 cats at once?
su8/50 - French above, English stop
Mr Haz is very resourceful.
su8 your last name is your ***name + ce5 and desist
You've seen those robotic machines that mimic movement? I'm sure he could rig up something along those lines.
It isn't a cost thing, per se. It is standard procedure here that cats must have appts before and after, and also be in perfect health and have all vaccinations before they get neutered. This makes sense, but I got Emma out of a barn. She may be sick. If she is, they will not spay her, and will argue I should put her down. I won't. Emma is my baby and I just want her to be happy while she is alive, and spaying is part of that. It sucks :(
I don't want to put her through unnecessarily irritating (for all of us) heats, I just want her spayed, darnit!
That would be an unusual approach here. You can't insist on people having vaccinations done and if she's otherwise healthy I can't understand why they wouldn't operate.
wow
or just treat her and do the spay too
I would have to pay over a hundred dollars before I even found out if they would operate + any treatment costs if she IS sick..It is 200 bucks in appts and vaccinations if she is healthy before they will spay. And it has to be done 4 weeks apart, so she would go in heat first, which would also raise the price.
hint for se6/18 pls?
that is ridiculous!
oh my uni *hugs for you and emma
se6/18 - to rhyme with Elizabeth's family in Pride and Prejudice or to go with Mack, associated with early film comedy
se+ Japanese coin + a fisherman's ***
ty haz
You can see my frustration. I am just trying to do the right thing and being gouged.
0...and we have fireworks!
I'm not sure if it's the same with cats as with dogs, but with bitches they normally advise that she have one heat - something to do with oestrogen levels and incontinence later.
any hints needed?
Congratulations Ardilla!!
Congratulations ardilla!
Doesn't the Canadian Humane Society have reduced price spaying. I know Humane Socities spay feral cats
Only 141 Ard :)
whew, that makes 4 in a row, i think
There may be associations through which I can get a reduced price, but I have been told repeatedly that in my area all of the pre-spay stuff is mandatory. (appts, vaccinations, etc). We just need to get her to Loris and back, and all will be well. Hopefully.
se7? either one?
i'll keep you two in my prayers *hugs
It sounds like the best solution, Uni.
se 7/32 Is relating to touch, smell, hear
se7/32 dealing with your se5s
One se7 is a plural, the other relates to se5/10 and is descriptive.
Such drama! Makes me glad that no-one tried to get me spayed :)
the other se 7 is ooze, compartive form
scroll down for the se7 pl
well, back to movie
thanks
happy babbling all
that would probably turn out easier!
Bye ardilla.
how far are you from Lori, Uni?
Just a few hours by vehicle, but pets aren't allowed on the bus system and there is a lack of people travelling (that we know). No worries, we have backup plans...and if she does go into heat first, it won't hurt either of us.
Don't forget to ask your British Babble friends for ideas. We're awfully good at thinking outside the box.
nope, you'll just get hoooooooowling for a few nights :P
Ugh. She can't even meow, maybe she can't howl!
It's the butt rubbing and attraction to males thing that I don't like...a few years ago the bf's family had an un-neutered cat..she spent five days rubbing her parts on the guys in the house. Ew!
lol. I thought that wiht Sily. She had this tiny little *mew*, then she went into heat (2 days before she was meant to be spayed) and she hoooooooowled
How can a Kitten of Glory deserve the title if she can't meow?
it's the funniest funniest noise
se 6 /27
She gives kisses! Kisses are much cooler than meows.
please
awwwwww
a waiter se**** his customers, but add adjectival ending

Afternoon all How goes the grid (as one who has not yet started it)?
FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!
Wha? Is this my MamaFM?? The grid is the devil though.
LOL ((Ata))
Hello Hello Hello. Who have we here then? (bending knee, Dixon style)
it's not an easy grid, but it's interesting
*Shoving Ata out of the limelight by curtsying to FM*
Hello there Haz and Uni :)) Lovely to see you too!
I think it's a fun grid. Age before beauty, get back to your place, Uni.
*clambers over Uni and kicks her*
Now now, no fighting ladies (I use that term loosly of course).
I have an umbrella here and I'm not afraid to use it.
*Is wounded by brutal kick, calls for medic*
hi everyone
lol
Ata! What have we told you about that aggression? Do you really want the therapy again?
oh..i just took first aid on tuesday....
wasn't brutal! was less than an Emma scratch!
my my, i arrive to a melee
Goo dtiming then carlee
Hello hurshy and carlee. They're getting all excited because FM is here.
*beams* it's so nice! everyone here! almost
Where's Vicuna?
I hoped Cait would pop up when I requesteda medic, but alas..
woot for FM... how are u dear...
caitlyn may well be digging her way through snow.
sorry bout your luck uni.....
Vi? Anyone? We need Lori too though...and Miss Scarlet :(
Snow? I could show her snow!
Lori(Canada) is probably doing housework.
I am well thanks carlee nice to see you too :) Lori and Vi and Aloy and Annie and Cait too
Phone...
should be here
Lori(Canada) just fainted
LoriP is ignoring me via googletalk. I think she may be hiding.
There is a non-Canada Lori?
every time i think i've got the 9, it turns out to either not be in the dictionary or else i'd have to re-use an S or an E
she's online .... LORI!!!!!!11
She's always online..or at least she used to be. Closing expert is just not done in our family :)
so what is new in the lives of Haz and FM?
carlee, good bio, like it.
hurshy, it's just a case of adding a letter to the middle of the comparatively small te8
hey
hi uni
long time no see
I thought perhaps you might fm ;o)
ahhh, and i was so sure it would be -ness!
Nothing exciting to report from my neck of the woods, winter winter and more winter, work and real life stuff.
New things? Let me think about that.
Praise!!! Well, we are just calling people out of the woodwork, aren't we?? How are you, hubby and the adopted grand-babies??
doing okay uni--still dealing with a few things, but things are better
No, that ending isn't used nearly as often as you might hope.
I wish I could find this 9! I know how to make it and I can't LOL
clues for the te 8/9 please
did I hear right Uni--you have a kitty??
I'm trying to figure out HOW to find it...I have the little te
how do i play?
no
good afternoon all :-)
I am debating wether to start this grid or not.
nm, got it
te8 - put a comparative ending onto the between child and adult stage
marmar - check out the help button above the chat log
I'm so glad that there are improvements, praise. Did the surgery work out well in the end too? (I am going back to ancient history here, I know)
Hi Orange
i get so mad every time sensei is here and the stupid thing won't take it
hi orange
the knee surgery?? Has it been that long since we saw each other?
You just need to say 'Om', hurshy and let the anger pass.
yes hurshy... I have typed it at least three times....
today!
harumph
ohhhhhhhhh...i found the te9....sheesh... need a fish for that one
I think LoriP is hiding 'cos she knows I have an extra special water bomb waiting for her!
I haven't been babbling for about six mos...would pop on occasionally, but my internet says no to babble.
eny clues?
you should start the grid, fm
anybody got the i ?
oooh...fm..I have a stockpile of spitballs too
in5/16 hurshy
Half my chat gets eaten by cyberspace too, so sorry for double posts.
ewwww how long have you been stock piling them carlee *hands over toxic waste outfit and rubber gloves*
all the better effect when they land fm ;-)
Uni & Carlee, dis you know the 4 Continents Figure Skating Championship is happening this week in Vancouver?
**Distributes tinfoil hats and jackets, in case of spitball war**
LOL
i do NOt follow figure skating any more....after the debacle a few years ago....I refuse ( ongoing arguement with my mother who is a diehard fan)
*puts tinfoil hat on quickly*
what debacle?
I'm locked and loaded FM...how about u?
*borrows Haz's umbrella*
the crap that went on with the french judge in dance...that involved the russian pair and the canadian ones
Get your own!
Uni--surgery went well--but had some complications afterwards that I wasn't expecting
gee thanks Haz **lets rip with water cannon across the entire log**
They've change the scoring so it is less likely to happen
Sorry. Not but that I wouldn't willingly bestow my last penny upon FM, but one's umbrella is something different.
un 6/21, first one, please
i know bichon....but they lost me as a fan...I have no use for it
and lobs a few custard balloons in for good measure!
un6/21 - the sort of feeling you have when a water fight is about to start and somebody borrows your umbrella
**Sits calmly in corner, re-reading Jasper Fforde novels**
good clue Haz, ty
You guys....
Sighs, Uni you gotta loosen up a bit child!
gotta go for a while
Hello Erda.

Hi Erda
Hi Haz
Hi FMitch

Ready fm????? AIM.....FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Loriiiiiii!
Praise, have a lovely weekend then!
Who you calling a cow ((hugs)) trust you to come in once I finished the 1st phae of water attacks.
It's Lori(Canada)! She has left down her rubber gloves and forsaken the vacuum!
*Locks and loads* ...... Woooooosh!!!!
Hah! I don't even recognize any of the words you just said Haz....
You guys should go and audition for the Comedy Channel!!!
***I'm hit, I'm hit. Man down!***
*nice job carlee*
That word blindness bothering you again, Lori?
I am lighting the vacuum on fire as we speak..she shall no longer abandon us!
I am lighting the vacuum on fire as we speak..she shall no longer abandon us!
< Locked and loaded for another spitball attack! >
Shouldn't that be Woman down Lori dear? I don't want to be picky or anything but ...
* giggle * using the toxic ones this time.....they've been lying in wait for just such an opportunity
**paint filled ballon hits Ata square in the rear**
person down
* AIM* * FIRRRREEEEEE!!!!***\
I need CPR or ADD or ADHD or some acronym of assistance!
I've heard of political correctness, but this is ridiculous!
*ow!!* *whooshes a cat fart filled balloon back at Uni*
You don't need ADHD.
ROFL *wipes self down and stands grinning happily*
Ata thats gross!
***restrains a comment about the size of target Uni was aiming at*** :D
*gasps as cat fart balloon hits poor Emma instead*
yeah, she coudn't miss!
Wait utnil the toxic one wipes the smile off FM's face.
OMG, poison gas too!
not aiming at FM... Lori gettign the blast
*ghwe sdfjlk 3"@ asdflkj* - translates to I already have my gas mask inplace
Gosh, some things never change! :)
*is building lovely shelter for protection*
SCARLET!

I'm wearing Latex head to toe.***discuss***
SCARLET!!!!!!!1
SCARLET!!!! ****HUGS*****
Did someone sacrifice somebody to the babble gods?
RED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Hello dear Haz and Atalante!! **hugs**
***tackles Scarlet not so gently*** Hey girl!
KATTIE!!!!!
omg
* sneaking up on lori **
The babble gods have shone on us **creating alter of love**
Hey Lori P... I like the tickling!! Uni !!
What a nice surprise! We've missed you. WE've missed each other.
OMG Scarlet how wonderful to see you and this is the first time I've been in the chat for ages too!
TOXIC SPITBALL MONSTER BOMB on lorip's head
so lovely to see you Scarlet
Holy cow, Haz broke out the caps lock button. She must be excited.
*call immediate cease fire* all weapons, spit or otherwise on the floor now!
I love that just after my return I get to see most of the ones I love and have missed so much!
FM so good to see all of you! **hugs** I have missed you too!!@
I'm practically hysterical, Lori (Canada)
*creating peace treaty*. Group hug! :)
lobbing the last of the spitballs...
*quickly reaims another balloon at FM before the ceasefire takes effect*
**kicking sand *** darn..I was having fun :(
***unleashes the drones in carlee's direction***
TIME --- how about a clue for the eu word?
How is everyone doing?
Ceasefire time needs to be established. Can we sympathise our watches?
euphoria is the eu word of the day!
All the better for see you!
as opposed to synchronise?
:)
Goes to Brit mode of wanting to hug but just beams happily at everyone :)
It is the thought that counts, FM!
Red... I am attempthing Goat cheese grits this weekend...
so how are YOU, Scarlet??
Sorry Erda, I don't have it. ***snowball at carlee, depsite ceasefire***
Oh, you will have a fabulous meal then, Kattie.
Absolutely. Sychronised watches are just a bit too official sounding.
glad to see my typing skills haven't improved whist I've been away.
oh hell...scrap brit mode and go to childish glee
eu7 - trying to think of a cl4.
Haz, how are your dear husband, dear dog and dearest daughters?
Think harder, please
Oh, Red - have YOU got a delish potato salad recipe?I have tatoes ready to go, but wanted to try something new.
*grabs carlee's hands and spins round*
We're all fine, Scarlet - younger one is 22 tomorrow. This time 22 years ago.......
***grabs a flight, lands, takes a cab, crawls up behind FM Navy Seal style and lobs spitballs***
I am well, Ata... still in the deep-freeze here in the south, but looking forward to the first green smells of spring! And thee?
** spin until we get dizzy and fall down... ***
LOL... Lori... you never change!
awwe gee thanks Lori (())
This time 22 years ago, Haz let slip the first curse of her life. ..
FM secretly loves it. :)
Not a recipe, Uni, but just add a ton of chopped hard-boiled eggs, red onions, capers and fresh parsley to make it sing like an aria.
* pouncing onto Lori 's back and smashing a giant water balloon on head**
..... you were contemplating the glory of your placenta-to-be?
**Is planning lovely vacation to exotic lands for this babble reunion** Away with winter!
( Uni...I grate my hard boiled egg so you don't get those rubbery chunks )
ROFL Ata just knew one of us would mention that !!!
Uni! Don't you know that I believe in maximum pain relief in childbirth?
eu 7 - still trying to think, honestly
I had to :D
Pain relief in child-rearing isn't such a bad idea either..
***carlee's been working on her stealthiness, eyes her nervously***
yea..parental pain relief
Haz, what's the third letter?
eu7 - three letters mixed up of when actors know to say their lines, four letters of the mixed up swimming animal or what you use to make sure an envelope isn't opened.
<evil giggle>
morning all :))
There - darkened room needed for sheer exhaustion.
Please don't tell me that we now do 3rd letter clues?
placenta to be ***falls off chair laughing***

Hello Mom!
***faints, but hangs on to FM's leg*** Mom!!!!!!!
It's worrying, Scarlet, they're all reverting to type.
Well Red, it has been months since we were all together!
Yes, but that makes coming home even better, Haz. Yes Uni... what a party!
God, that from Haz? She who used caps lock? :p
This is like old home week. This is wonderful
things are good... oh this is so nice to see... and reverting to type is perfect
Yes, wonderful, heartening and warm & fuzzy! :)
( I think Haz is in need of her medicial whiskey )
I hope you're lovin' the new digs Mom, I think of you often. :)
medicinal sherry :P
We're going to need a guestlist soon. No party crashers, please!
Thats where I've jsut been Carlee to get the medicinal sherry for Haz and to put the kettle on too :)
I think of you too, Lori. We are liking the house just fine.
Who do we get to act as bouncer?
A new home, Mom? congratulations!

**pulling Lori's hair ***

thanks mom
:)
Good to see you (((crossy)))
What a beautiful portrait of Spangle.
I think this is the first time in all my years of playing that I have come across the pi** word
Thank you, Scarlet! (Confession, it's not her)
Haz is rather quiet back there...
Oh, gosh Haz... sorry for the misidentification!
Sorry! The computer decided to freeze on me.
( not enough whiskey into her yet to get rolling I suppose )
someoen say whiskey?
It's not her, but it's really like what she was as a puppy. And they're bound to be related, aren't they?
bound to be
But of course, Haz!
That's because Haz's computer has never had the caps lock button engaged before.
ROFL Lori!!!!!!
Ata, did you get to Atlanta for the convention?
I think you're onto something there, Lori. It thought an interloper had taken over.
the computer went into shock...hehehe
***still clinging to FM's leg, AND typing. Very tricky***
WAIT..I just tok first aid...
I did! It was *wonderful*
Well, imagine the poor button's shock!
That's nearly as difficult as typing from under the desk, Lori.
we need to make sure its warm...
this is such a poe grid!! ra5, and then a word from it - vainly i had sought to borrow, from my books su8 of sorrow, sorrow for the lost lenore...
oh crap a customer..brb
Mirrors help. Just don't !!!!!!! or CAPS LOCK and it'll be fine Haz.
hurry back Carlee
Lock the door and tell 'em 'yer closed carlee.

my "nic" @hotmail.com
We're awaiting a proper list of everyone TO.... :p
:(
someone tie me to the bed please! I can't sleep!
because of snow Rolin?
ta :)
You see? You need to come north to get things moving, rolin. I'll wave to him.
oh right mr p what the heck....
it's another word for relief and involves the stopping of the sorrow.
gg
so..Red...the proverbial question..... Whats for dinner this evening
scrabs was ill she was on wed night
ty haz... im not sure that he has good memories of belfast.. we'll have to come back to up fot this
lynxxx..yup..cos of the snow..
I am sorry to hear about Scrabs, hopefully she will be better soon
At least he's on his way home!
Steaks, salad, baked, stuffed potatoes, okra and homemade applesauce, Kat.
oh... scrabbs, is she ok now?
hey lynxx hey mom hey rolin hey haz hey lori hey fm hey carlee hey hurshy hey scar heyata hey crossy hey mr p*takes a breath*
oh yum..I am on my way... set me a plate ...PLS
in case any of you ever wondered, pizza is NOT turkey meatloaf.
:) come on down...
sounded like a 24 hour bug.
yes... once hes landed...i hope the car starts...and then can get out onto the roads
lol@TO
lol Scrabbler was on this morn, headed to tennis and take her car to the garage...$$$$$$
I rarely wonder about that, Eva...;)
Poor man, he'll be glad to see the end of this journey.
good lord...wales was cut off too..lol
geez sh'es probably had a relaspe if she got the bill lol
apparently i didnt know this when i grabbed leftovers outta the fridge.
now ive got a lovely lunch of a baked sweet potato + 1 slice of pizza
yeah haz...he's pretty p'd off.... he just wants to be home..ive made a big pot of home made soup and he can just drop down and rest in comfort
what happened to scrabs?
TO, I think she was indenial about the bill. :)
hehehe....interesting lunch
where is scrabs?
oh Eva, that is a funny lunch
i destryoed a tire in the snowstorm tuesday...must get a new one today. but i can't find the pothole. must look again today. i want relief from the state.
hi lori :)
Curiouser and curiouser Eva...
Lovely, rolin, that should help to calm him down and fill him up.
i also have a bag of honey mustard potato chips + pirates booty popcorn because i couldnt decide between them...lol
I'm thinking of having popcorn fr lunch
lol Eva
hmmm, *get to see mates at 5am*. I should get up early more occassionally
I just had ham, swiss on rye and chips
still not sleeping mrp?
as is that why we are being treated to your pirate self today? ;)
ohh I had forgotten how babble chat can make you so hungry, must pop to the kitchen brb
***steals a tire, er I mean buys TO a new tire***
hurry back FMitch
ha! I have 999 pts!
I had popcorn for dinner last night.... along with some Guinness... delish ;-).. saving points you know
lol mitch
Talking about food reminds me that I'd better start making something. Telling Mr Haz that long lost babblers were on chat isn't going to impress him!
i think i will toddle into the office to get a peanut butter cup to crumble into my plain old boring vanilla yogurt
***ow, ouch ow, jeez FM, I'm still attached to 'yer leg***
i always get on Chris's case about not eating the leftovers, so i try to lead by example. especially when the example is yummy sweet potato!!
lori p are you mauling fm again/
Maybe you will receive a special dispensation from him Haz.
tell him you'll bring in 10 cats to spay
hmm...things you dont think of...elferly ppl who usually go to centres and eat cant get out...so more meals and wheels are needed...
Just hanging on her leg so she doesn't disappear again. Discreet surveillance is my middle name. :)
I doubt MR. Haz would say anything.
I doubt it, Scarlet. He likes food. Such a nuisance.
Does Mr Haz not have the phone # of a local take out place? :)
ok..well.. work is calling my name....you all enjoy yourselves...
( I have about 25 pails to scrub out before a client gets here in 45 mins )
bye carlee
***whap*** Later carlee!
and you do not? if so, help me. teach me the zenlike way of minimal eating
{{Carlee}} take care. I have missed seeing you. So good to see you again
Later, Kattie... and thank you dear.

Oh, that is wonderful, Ata!!
Scarlet, I ampleased and delighted to report absolutely nothing has happened here.

*sneaks back in in time for a hig* you guys are the greatest!
Awww such a sweet hug mrP!

(((( owl! ))))
{{TO}}

How DOES one find the icon themes?
Who's higs? A new babbler?
red -- icon themes are here: http://www.playbabble.com/profil e_mini.php?id=2889
{{{{all}}}}
Scarlet - Sprite has taken over the icon themes - look at her profile
Bye Mom. Scralet, sprite has icon themes in ehr profile. She's the keeper now, I believe
lol haz and see no caps used!!! :D
dinner didn't take long! I think you just heated up some of Spangle's food and called it bolognaise
Bleu cheese, mayo, sour cream, minced scallions, lemon juice or lime juice, a touch of garlic powder and pepper.
*smooooooochies* for owl!
See you TO!
aw, shucks!
Hazx made a peanut butter sandwich. TO!!!!!!!!
oops here comes boss *poof*
honeypie... do you have my new address?
bye TOwl
As if I'd waste Spangle's food on the humans! I mean to say!
Thank you Lynxxx and Eva@
true true
our school website is officially dead
(although I'm writing down the idea and calling it something surprise)
I think Haz felt the rush of power lurking within caps lock. What has she unleashed?
*hangs on doorjamb* mr p oto whom do you speak? *looks over shoulder to see if coast is clear*
***pints at TO's boss, and whispers gently*** :)
soem of holly's food sounds fine to eat anyway "chicken with green vegetables and pasta" etc
I'm just glad that I'm still aware of the world punctuation mark shortage. It weighs heavily on my mind.
*points even
oooh just got email from boss coast is clear for now
..,;:""'?!!&[]{}/<>)(****
is that fireworks eva???
yay lori!!
Yea! ***pats a chair for TO***
That EvaN. She likes to shock.
im thumbing my nose at haz's punctuation mark shortage...heh
**gas[**
That's **gasp**
Wanton use of the punctuation mark. I just hope you don't regret it when we run out of them.
how else am i to create my emoticons?? :P
is that a punishable infraction?
who is gasp!??
How many lashes per !!!!! ????
clearly i have no other way of expressing sarcasm.
Here comes the sun!!!
I don't know who Gasp is but it sounds to me like asthma might be a problem.
We really do need to work on Dr-G to give us a sarcasm font. Not that I'd ever need it.
It is the involuntary reaction to the sass-factor coming from the nearly-30 year old woman who is brassy, flashy and smashy....
I'd never use sarcasm. Ever.
eva, I need help with a 'sorry' idea for online chat
Brassy Flashy and Smashy sound like a new Girl Band.
I know that Lori...you are the mistress of understatement...
Then add "spice" to the end of each new name...
MrP -- a cute word? or an emoticon?
You'd bring back too many bad memories if you did that, Scarlet.
Gah! The spawnlings will be home in 15 minutes. 'Scuse me while I lock the door.
lori!! you too sweet
who knew pe6.21 was a plural for pe5.12
Lock the door and hunker down, Lori. They'll give up knocking soon enough.
Too right, Haz. I lost my common sense along the way...
You need to stick around babble some more, Scarlet, we'll keep you grounded.
Good thing they have their snow suits on.
hmmm Lynxxxx> must try to find this mystery word.
lori, when the sproglets awake... can i send them to you??
Yes, I think that is a sound suggestion, Haz.
they'll be fine then
MrP -- if youre looking for a new word, you could use "sowwy" thats what i use. :)
you know what I find 'uncomfortablek
are we hainvg a spice girls theme day? when we can become whatever spice we so desire?
*youre grounded scarlet!* (thats how we do it, right?)
Hello briefly!
like "owly spice"
**snort** Eva, you are a hoot and a half!
I shall be "Cardamom Woman" then.
Husband home, so I'd better serve up the gourmet (sarcastic font) meal. Bye for now!
putting in a language/// learning all :)
lol or Spicey Towel?
have a nice bolognaise!
bye Haz
Later, Haz.
no scar you can be cardomom spice but not cardomom woman
no, scarlet...TO is a hoot! (TO, hoot, get it?!) lol
oh crap... glad I am up... just got an SMS from my assistant
Oh... thanks for the direction, TO. I shall be Cardamom Spice!
**groan** Eva never quits...
bye haz. oh joy here comes the WEEKLY desk-side trach pickup. it's so disgusting here.

Eva, 'yer on a roll!
your tax dollars at work, they are cutting back to economize.
Must run for now... so good to see the asylum-mates once again
Bye Scarlet!

Bye, MG... Bye sweet Ata!!

Don't be a stranger Scarlet! Take care.

Bye Lynxxx and Lori... I shall return!

Ata, maybe their parents will come for them soon.

Bye Lori!

I have put an Absolutely Exhausted little boy in bed. He's had a heck of a big day.
no more work for two days, cat to cuddle, fire on, eating a bag of hot chilli tortillas and playing babble, life doesn't get much better :-) Evening everyone
oooooh, sun is coming up!
woohooo! hi kitt!
Hi Katie
the kukkaburras' are going OFF!!
yay katie!
Hi Katie!
Wheeeee the kukaburras! My grandfather used to be able to imitate one well enough to set all the ones at the SD Zoo off.
kookaburras are really having laught now!!
oh lord.... make me sleep!
Want to hear about Walter's long day?
nice monkey!!
any clue for the in5 and the se6/27 ? last ones I need
go for it monkey
Have you got much on today MRP?
in5 in***iably you will get the word
He has been rather tired all week, I think because of a slight cold. This morning he suddenly said he is still very sad that the cat died (we had to have her put down two weeks ago). Then today was the day at school when the kids all did a sponsor run for a school in Malawi, and Walter ran 11 laps-- so 1320 meters! A lot for such a small boy. THEN at noon he went for a pre-arraged playdate with his friend, which they haven't done before, and during the course of this playdate he told his friend that the cat died, and his friend told him his father died! Almost a year ago but still very prominant in the hcild's mind of course. Then he got his fingers piched in a door (no lasting damage). So by the time Walter got back here at 3:30 he was Absolutely Fried, and working through a lot. I'm glad it's Friday and I can just let him sleep in the morning.
thanks lynx...got that one
ty lynx!
I packed him straight into a relaxing warm shower and then tucked him in on the sofa with some warm milk.
that is a very busy day for a little one
Yup, poor kid. But he had a very big dinner and I let him have some cookies after and then we all played a card game he likes before bed. He's sound asleep now.
oh wow! right on 6am, they bring the flights in!!
Nothing whatsoever planned for the weekend. I think that's best.
lynxx, I bloody hope not! Most are 'sick and tired' of my side of the fence
se6.27 start like a maid or butler ending in Mr Gore
ty lynx!
OK, time for me to watch crap on TV and unwind. Have fun all!
I was madly searching for that and realised I had fluked the word earlier
bye MG
Ok deep breath, I'm going to get expert, how do I go about it?
email lickety I think
Yes, his contact email on his list
the kukkas are totally stupid!!
is expert playiing up??
better than a rooster
I'v adverse to change but I really need to do it.
No mrp I have never used it, always stuck to having two windows open
wait...expert? is that different from Babble Pro?
Suns starting to peak thru here too, back in a while...going to take Stew down to the shops before it gets too hot. Already 25
Yes Tiny, if you use Lickety's clue list then you should contact him for BabbleExpert - best thing since sliced bread
*sings* kukkuburra sits in the old gum tree-ee, eating all the gumdrops he can see-ee.,,
oh wow, what is it?
GUMDROPS!!!!
laugh, kukuaburra, laugh, kukaburra save some drops for me. *curtseys*

LOL atalante!
Oh Stiddy, you missed a PARTY!

so I hear Uni! must have been a blast!
lynxx....is it really gonna BE 44 TODAY?
oops
come on spill, who was here?
I rather liked mikey actually... there are LOTS of nice people though.
It was delightful, but a little overwhelming. I could hardly keep up with that chat, lol
better fill me in...
hey katie!
FM and Scarlet
still need that i word before I can list... *whine whine*
I'm freezing freezing. but its still warmer thanmost people. Attempting to get lunch now.

*hands blankie and extra longjohns to red*
We had Ata, Haz, FM, Scarlet, Carlee, Lori, Lynxxx, Praise, TO, and a billion others! :)
o-m-g... I got it! *kisses monkeyfingers*
Stiddy, you will in***iably find that word
my partner has got to luton airport..only to find his car is snowed in
and Mom
Lori too??? how is your mother these days?
oh dear rolin, what is he going to do? ski home?
I'm glad I was first on the list *smug*
thanks Uni (for the i word)
listing...
I've heard she was evil, but that was the past I guess. She was having a grand time, throwing spitballs and grabbing FM
any hint on the 9 letter?
33 left, but I leave in 15 minutes. Not looking good!
ata...i just had a call from him..at the mo hes trying to use a golf putter to move the snow
is the AE fishy?
oh noooooo
I will leave about then also Uni... need to write a little for class before I go volunteer.
rofl rolin! oh, that is desperation!
no idea yet karyn
Oh ROlin...poor guy! a gold putter...
hs wating for the parking ppl to come and help him..but they downt seem to be rushing
*golf. Not gold.
the poor baby...
does he have chains for the car? after all, once he is out of the parking space he doesn't want to stall on the roads
chains? In England? no-one has them!
the ae is definitely not a FISH!
no stid...all this snow is alien to us..hes not that organise...no one is
??? *confused mama look* no chains in england? this does not make sense!
wow. *trying to filter concept*
in that case... help phaeton? (and hello)
we actually have some, but only cos we take our car over to the Alps every now and then
this amount of snow only happens every 20 years apparnetly..thats why it has such an effect
well then, it's settled. Atalante can drive over and pick up rolin's partner and take him safely home. *satisfied mama look*
ae...**wspaper...you and me make **
if the roads were open ...
ewww. that's a WURD??? LOL thanks phaeton!

luton is north west of london...about..20miles?
if I was in the right area, I would do!
it's not that far... still near London. are your roads that slow?
So, no own wants to hear that it is a balmy 75 here today?

We have had my toes for about 2 weeks ;-)

I need to change my icon, but don't know what to change it to

I'm so hungry why didn't I just microwave the bloody potatoes and I could be eating dinner by now
okay I've got that...*looking for 4 missing a's*

CE 7/36 before the "slap on the wrist" of politicians?
like the sexy se7, stid, but starting C.
thanks sprite. wish I had a better camera, but you can see a) how thin this child is - and tall and b) some of his personality. He really does get typecast in these roles!
Oh stid that is a horrible time, stick with it, it will be worth it in the end
he does great. Quite a personality on stage too!
mmm lasagne
ah. thanks sprite!
I had Chick-Fil-A.

I had half a can of Asian rice crackers while my hubs took care of the paperwork on the fender bender at the market.
bye sprite
later sprite! see you again soon I hope ((((hugs)))) sweet dreams
I found a scary photo the other day - of me when I was sooo thin, far too thin. And i realised that however much weight I want to lose now, I'd still rather be as I am now!

i feel like I am talking to myself here
MOVIEMAN!!!! where you been? We rewatched the matrix movie (#2?) where he meets the architect. and I noticed something! the screens in the architect's room reflect what the architect says... very clever.
sorry magmom. and carlee.
yw mm
get over it, carlee
*gasp* erda????
best of luck babes! I will be leaving you all for a fee
hugs mrp
HI movieman :))
ah, phone... back later.
pardon me erda...
later stid
erda!
Ensis is the generic name for the razor shell
hi -- it's possible erda didn't mean her comment in a snippy way -- sometimes our tone doesn't communicate properly across cyberspace :)
mrp......hiya!!!!!
hi movieman!!!
hi ch1212!!
well..perhaps Erda should at this point take the opportunity make her comment a little more clearly
movieman, my boy wants to chat with you!!
hi mrp, movieman, carleekat, atalante, stidmama and all else I haven't chatted with in ages.
ur
hi ch... it is a rather babble rreunion day
ch1212... have missed you hun!
ur
it must be a reunion day! have seen sooooo many darling babblers today
what's he want to know then, mrp?
Ah gee.... I've been here, just unusually quiet. But you have all been in my heart, and I've followed the chat.
Fm and Scarlet were on earlier ch
Oh, Scarlet! I do miss her. I heard Miss Hetty has not been here as often either. Hugs to all.
Luke wants to know how you know so much about films??
the chat was flying... haz was there....lori..uni...
It IS an oldtimer babble reunion then. Movieman, I'm curious too. Are you lucky enough to make a living in the industry?
carlee... how you coping babe?? all ok??
Well, mrp, I just have this ability to take in lots on info pretty quickly.....for example, when I was at junior school, whenever the teacher set a spelling test, I wouldn't even have to learn the words to get full marks
good afternoon everyone
oh..things here are really good Mr p...and u...u said u had a story the other day...am kinda concerned for u
oh cool movie! Luke feels the same way about games
And thanks to my Asperger's, I tend to only have one or two main interests
hi josh
hello again josh!!
hi josh
Luke says "cool"
oh, it's you again mrp
Also, a lot of the books I own are movie review guides
it is me again josh
Tell him 'cool' right back mrp
i am currently finishing up a master's degree in film studies. we're talking about movies?
He loves the 'Empire' magazine
Well movieman, we are blessed that one of your interests in Babble. You do add so much to the chat, especially with movies. You are our "go to" guy.
So do I, in fact I have a subscription to that and 'Total Film'
( I am going to go see New in Town tonite....I wanted to see slumdog millionaire but its not showing )
very cool josh.
That's lovely to hear, ch
will do movieman!!
I get him magazines... he reads them cover to cover... amazes me! I have to be careful what he sees (as he is only 9) but he is very very smart and wants to know heaps more about film.
Total Film! will get that on subscription too
I enjoy reading the movie reviews.....in fact they usually enable me to make up my mind about whether to go and see a certain film or not
That's also why I have imdb.com as my homepage
ch1212, movieman is hot to trot! we totally appreciate his talents and wisdom.
movieman I'm sure you know about rottentomatoes.com, where they compile hundreds of movie reviews. I'm betting you contribute?
not usually ch, but i may start to
oh too funny movieman! Luke asked to have that as his homepage.... but also wanted about 7 other homepages!! he is hopelessly devoted to film, Nintendo DS, xbox and pokemon
I have a DS, but I only have the New Super Mario Brothers game so far
movieman, do you have an xbox360?
Mind you, video games aren't really my forte
No, but I do have a wii
mrp- sounds like my almost 9 year old...at book fair yesterday all he wanted were pokemon or nintendo cheat code books...mean mommy made him buy some actual reading material too :-)
wii! oh he is jealous!
I loooove my Wii
he has gone to play xbox... lol! you have made his morning movieman!
hi again ata!!
I gave myself wii tennis elbow last Christmas :-)
Mind you, it can get a tad embarassing when I say I'm gonna play with my wii.......
can I have a hint for the TE nine?
*chortle*
glad to hear it mrp
you could if I had one phae...sorry
indeed magmom! he wants to get every bloody level in pokemon, so he can 'destroy' everyone..... (he is rather omnipetant)
ok maga
LOL movie!!!
OI have no wii, I have never even actually seen one. I feel so out of date!
mrp he would get along fabulously with my boy
te 9 is the te 8 with another cons. added in the middle of the word
movieman, if you get xbox360, Luke wants to play castle crash with you
I have to lay down the law about the Nintendo or he is going to end up having to have it surgically removed form his hands
mrp and other parents of the 8-10 year old boys -- I noticed the remark about 'destroy' -- is that pretty common at that age?
that would help Luv if I had the TE8...:~)
I think so ch... I hear it from my friends with boys that age
the te8 I have means the very smallest
It is 7.15am, and the smell of the fires is deeply disturbing!! This will be the rest o f us
okay. Just wondering. We have a darling 8 year old neighbor boy who has adopted us as grandparents, and he talks about destroying stuff a lot --- on his video games, his plastic armymen, etc. We only had a daughter, so this is new.
that's the one, magmom - throw a consonant in the middle and you have the 9
i love the smell of fire...in my fireplace
phae- did that help? I got the te 9
ch1212... totally normal
prezzie sweetusm!!
hi nuttie!!! (((((hugs)))))
Yes, thank you Luv...got both
good to hear. His home life is pretty negative, so I wondered. We enrolled him in horse riding lessons because he loves horses.
ch- I remember that from the boys growing up n my neighborhood...they liked to play fort, and war...nowadays I think it has just morphed into the video games and such
I thought it might help his "agression" but maybe it's just a normal 8 year old thing.
well it certanly can't hurt... we keep our son involved in sports like basketball and soccer where he can run off that extra energy
Gosh, I appreciate this. I've worked with adolescent boys professionally, but they were all court-involved. So I'm kind of skewed in my perception of what's okay.
afraid so ch1212... boys are an enigma... let them have their 'stuff' and then more!!
LOL. Thanks all. I will access your collective wisdom in the future if needed :)
Luke loves his DS, Xbox and his mates around to play all the above
my son has ADD (no hyperactivity), so I've learned a lot recently about what to expect from little guys his age
however, we are careful of 'how' he conducts himself. He is fair and reasonable.... with alot of effort! :)
when my step-brother was 8, he had a collection of combine harvester toys *sigh*
mag, "our" boy is in counseling due to his home life, and in special classes at school. We do enforce good conduct rules when he visits, and he seems to love the consistent rules (and hugs).
definitely mrp. Zac and his best bud Curtis spend alot of time playing video games...but you're right sometimes they get a little too *wrapped up * in it and we have to have some breathing time
If he 'loses it' he has to take time out to think about his loses
consistency is the key!!! a darling big bright sparkling key!!
hi all...
well put!! LOL!
pini!!!!!
magz!
everyone done yet?
oh ata!! he is totally cool!!
When I was a child, I was always a loner, I never interacted with the other children

Hi pini! Well I'm supposed to be working, so I'll bid farewell and many thanks again.

good...then you can clue the other 198 I still need!!!

I have rocks everywhere lol they are good things
I have almost every issue of Empire magazine dating back to 1989
aphgan?
he would love to keep to himself, but I keep him involved with other kids. It makes a big difference to his day. I noticed when he was alone, he became very bossy
i'd rather do that than crunch numbers
movieman! you are amazing! We all love that mag here
it was dull dull dull
3 more for NBT! ugh!

google says it's currawong -- looks like a raven with some white bits
babrab, luke asked if you would be here this morning? (at this time)

It's nice he's gone happy!!!!!
it is a Currawong... sorry, about alt spelling

Hi Jill
peri, put it in the middle
put it after the young adult,
use the cross letter... stick it in the middle
mrp -- go back to bed!
it is a variant spelling thingy
*hides from cross letters*
gotta take a break ...bbs
ah, got the te9, thanks so much
Or not so yay. I brought the car in for routine 90K maintenance and this problem was discovered. But better than having the engine seize up from no oil......ah, car repairs, what a pain, but so necessary

Glad that that worked out for you Scrabbler! I bet you are going to have a very relaxing vacation.

where are you going, Scrabs?
Amelia ISland, off coast of Jacksonville, FL, where a friend's family has a condo.
ok, when are you going?
From Apr 1-8.
You can do it Scrabbs. Take benadryl for the plane. it helps to be sleepy.
not seeing the cl8 or ce8
Or to know that if we crash I am going down with 3 dear friends.
if someone has style, they have cl***
who will watch the bunnies?
thanks lynxx, did not have the right cl5
My college nephew, Peter, will stay here for the week.

oh come ON that's a word?
scrabs we nave norovirus and shigelloisis outbreak here
we use it here meaning something is REALLY funny
guess so!
which i always thought was a parasite
Shigellosis is bad, at least for kids: bloody diarrhea, fever, and often convulsions.
bye now *waves*
* waving to Jill*
ty jilibus!
That sounds awful. You can keep that TOwl, don't share
well I don't have it...
but i am glad dr. scrabs is clearing this up for me, i truly thought it was parasitical.
good! lol at the cat picture
Nope, a bacterium.
oh lynx we are both at the extremes of weather this week. can't say i'd want t o swap. how hot will it get today?
BBS need to do a load of washing so I can bucket the water onto the garden. My back is loving this! 44/110+
Ha, we were 4 degrees F yesterday, 19 today
later lynxxx! late, all. must go replace tire lost to giant pothole. :/
Yuk, OWl
I want some hot. :(
well red i would say the same but would not want to swap with lynxxx
I cannot make the SU 8 work...what am I missing?
I'd rather be cold than hot.
FINISHED! VERY EXCELLENT!
I would always rater be hot. But I can tolerate a lot of hot.
Yeah Godt11
i'd rather be hot than cold. but there's a limit.
good job godthaab
110 is beyond it
I did the 110 alot when I lived in Africa, so I think I got used to it.
I love heat
110 is fine - when you get used to it. The first day or two, you want to die
hey ata - ok bye *poof*
Congrats godthaab
i think as far as the heat, its difficult when you go in and out of Air con all the time...
any VU words?
absolutely. you have to stick with the heat
hi all, can i have a clue for su8 please
su + consonant + stop
what an idiot...i'm just watching nothing to declare which is custom officers in aus and some bloke has carried fireworks in his suitcase on a plane!!
hello

that's a great programme
hi peri
tyvm ata
still 131 to find, went out to lunch with my sister
hi peri

Hi Lilliann!

I would be if I had more $
my brother is a customs officer in dover
hi scrabs, how have you been?
Well, Lilliann, how about you and your little one?
if your sister is happy to treat you then enjoy, you would do the same peri
Hi Lil!!!!!!
I'd love to see an english version of Nothing To Declare
my daughter is fine thanks, and i've just had an armful of blood taken today for all sorts of things, so hopefully will get results back next week sometime. i've been told the path lab is behind at the moment
red!!!! hi hin, how are you?
what are they looking for lillian?
so would i ata
I'm well, sleepy.
u's and e's,??? heard thet term on tv, but don't know what it means, liver, thyroid, diabetes, anaemia and something else, can't remember what?
have a rest red. have you been working hard lately as usual
Hey Babble Family !!
hi auss
HIa ussie.
Hey Lilliann !!
Hey Red !
long time no see, how have you been auss?
hello
I am doing ok Lilliann !!
hi phaeton
Hey Phae !!
hi phae
Ata !!!
hi phae
Hi Aussie & phaeton
Aussie!
Hey Scrabbs, Hey Peri !
hey Aussie
good to hear auss. love the snowmen, bet georgia had fun, or should i say hubby?!?!
how many UV words?
3 phae
Both of them Lilliann !
ty lilliann
our snow has gone off the roads but still in the gardens...we were suppose to have blizzards, not seen any yet!!
Not wanting blizzards, I have a driving lesson on Sunday !
ooooo!
i meant up here, the weather men haven't got it right for we live yet
hope it's ok in leicester
Ah, I see !
we have no snow :(
have you just started with the lessons auss?
really ate, you had more than we did?
Its been ok up to now....... we have had some rough snow, but, its gone from most of the roads...... my road, however, is a different story... I couldn't drive down my road if I tried, waaaaay too much snow / compacted ice !
it's all gone already?
its allll gone
*ata
This Sunday is my 3rd lesson Lilliann !
go go aussie!
ours was like that as the school buses weren't running but it's gone now, thank god!
Oh lordy, Mom of 14 children on television again.
are you enjoying it aus..probably a good thing to learn to drive in the ice and snow, even tho it can be scary, atleast you have an expert to help yopu
Go Aussie!
*you
shes awful. but she had a hard childhood you know. she was lonely
14!!!!!!
god, 1 is enough..lol
Well, I am proud of myself, on my 1st lesson, I was driving through traffic lights, and on my 2nd lesson, I was reversing round corners !!
Ata, I know you are being sarcastic.
go girl!!
I am loving it Lilliann !! I can't wait for my next lesson !!
lol :P I really can't see why being lonely means having 14 children is logical
i failed my 1st test, reversing around corners, i wa really crap!!..lol
Did she actually say she was lonely?
Aussie, I forgot my seat belt at my drivers test.
yep. she had a lonely childhood
Ata, 14 kids ?? Could she not find the TV remote ??
*was
Oh Red !! It's the forst thing I do after I adjust my mirrors !!
*first
How bizarre. I do think the California board of medicine needs to Ce***** the MD.
well, i hope my daughter doesn't say that when she grows older ata, and she better not have 14 bairns, as i'm not babysitting!!
I just got nervous....
the first time husband took his test, he was using a friend's car. He said to the test guy "um, the speedo doesn't work, is that a problem?". He was failed on the point lol
*yawn* evenin babblers
ROFL !!!! Oh dear Ata !
Hey EvaN !
lmao ata
hi evan.
hi eva
bloody typical husband!
i don't think it helped as when i took my 1st test it was right outside the old peoples home i worked at and they were looking out the windows!!..lol
doing my nails since im hanging out late at work
How many UR words?
I did my test in Canterbury about 2 1/2 years ago. It's a nightmare because the test centre drive opens straight out into a 4 lane main road with a complicated junction about 100m down the road
all the reversing on the tests was taken outside our home so they were waiting!!
You know what Lilliann..... My Hubby put the L plates on the car today, and let me drive part of the way home, and I was terrible, I couldn't drive with him sitting next to me !!
6 phae
OMG Ata, I would freak out !!
woooot!
ty lilliann
i'm like that even now auss, and i've been driving for 19 years
still 111 left, bbs
yw phae
it's *awful*. but it's well known that the hardest part of any canterbury test is getting in and out of the test centre! the rest is a breeze compared to that!
Later Peri !
ROFL !!
i think its because he is a professional driver and sometimes says things, but atleast i feel safer when i drive
What is "speedo"?
i must say, i really keep trying to see "penis" in the grid today...
after driving a lorry he's like michael shumacker (i know i've spelt that wrong)..lol
I hate driving with husband too. it's just urf
speedometer scrabs
there's a surprise, eva!
*looks innocent* what??
I sure do wish someone would come over here and cook dinner for me.
where is the test centre in canterbury ata?
singular's not in there, but the plural is, eva
i could send some stew over red, hubby made it, it's lovely and has dumplings
on new dover road
well. whoda thunk it!
Ooooh nice.
oh aye, i know where it is now
hi fuquay
right by the huge set of traffic lights near whitefriars
I have a piece of salmon. I need to bake it.
it's not as nice as mine tho red!! the dumplings werent cooked enough and they went splatt, for some reason!!..lol
Ok, before I go batty, ru5 please ?
and some okra.
it's an absolute bastard place for a test centre!
that's probably why they put it there, so they could fail people before they even started
ru5..out in the country
Oh for goodness sakes, throw me a whale !!
I think the dumplings would be the best...
a lot of people fail just as they are turning back into the test centre at the end of the test - there's a pavement in front of the test centre and ppl just blaze straight over it without looking for pedestrians
my mam worked for a drivers association and you could do the best test ever but if they have passed their quota for the year then they have to fail you on somehting
5 un's; 6 ur's; 3 uv's...what U am I missing
it happened to me on my 2nd as it couldn't have gone any better
are we scaring Aussie yet?
ooph...need to U's
Nah..... I will weather the driving !!
*two
darn. ok. *thinks*
You will practice enough to be confident, Aussie!
I know someone who passed her test without actually taking her test
how did she do that?
Ok.... run hat one by me Ata !
the test guy had a heart attack half way through the test, and she drove him to hospital and looked after him till they got to A&E
*run THAT one by me !
they passed her
I know Scrabbs !!
WOW Ata, thats cool !
I know!
you'll know if you pass it auss, as they always ask motorway questions if you have paseed, well, they did when i took mine
Not for the test examiner, but cool that she did so well under that pressure !
yes, they couldn't not pass her after that!
I didn't get any motorway questions
What a story, Ata!
well good that she got him to the hospital, but she could have driven crap getting him there, and how would he know how well she did
I think anyone would didn't panic in that situation must at least have a good head on their shoulders
ok, am off to bed my Babble Family..... I am so tired, I could sleep on the washing line right now.......Sweet Dreams Babble Family **poofing**
but yes, it's all a bit dodgy!
night aussie!
Bye Aussie, sleep well!
i had been attacked the day before mine but i didn't get passed for it, but saying that they didn't know i had. good for her and yes, it does show that she has a good head on her shoulders ata
nite auss, sleep well and tc
ok..im happy...
he home?
..because you are done, Ro?
hi rolin, glad you're happy
good morning
yup..home..fed...warm..and on the couch ready to cuddle..lol
hi demi
hey demi..
Hi Demi
demi...youre in for a stinker..
it is currently 30C at 9am... am gearing up for 43C
We were ne4 0C yesterday AM.
tomorrow night..we're sposed to get down to -5C..
rolin we got you sms sometime between 2am & 6am
i would actually rather -5c than 43C. At least you can do stuff!!!
I would rather put on layers to stay warm than be too hot to move.
yes, wrap up in a duvet, but i must admit i do prefer it really hot
huh?...but i sent it about 7pm here......ooohh....cocked up the time zone..went an hour to the wrong side...lol..sorry
hi all
Hi Doren!
your son forgives you having it done many times before rolin!
and yrs..rather the cold than such heat
hi dorens
you must have very domesticated chickens if you can put on layers
i can remmebr when he called from new york at 4am... and called at 2am here... so yeah... lol
Haha, BR
and ive bee working this grid all day and i cant see any of the biggies
hi BR
i can't help rolin i have only just started this one
I am missing the 9 and 3 8s.
i am too scrab + 14 7's, 29 6's, etc, etc
the te9 goes off the 8 scrabs, really small
My body is seizing up after morning tennis and then cross-country skiing after lunch.
add a cons in the middle of the 8 if you have it
Ah, TY, Lill
hhhmm..i have the te8..but cant see the 9 extention
scrab- next weekend i'm going to new hampshire for cross country skiing at eagle mountain house
Fun, fun, fun, Doren!!
Oh, wait, that gave me te8. I still need te9!
thanks lil. that helped me
rolin...stick a cons in the middle of the te8
also fun, and more alluring to the couch potato in me, is that the inn has loads of nooks and crannies with fires for me to curl up and read next to (and phoebe will be there)
lovely dorens!
Will you be skiing at all, Doren?
Oh, man, I still don't get that te9!
te 9 -- 13 to 19 and more of the morning browned bread: *oa*t***
sure -- will strap on some cross countries and have a go at it .. a couple of times... but not more than an hour or two a day.
That is so not a word!
agreed!
And, TY, BR
it took me a while to find it too scrabs and i thought the same
yw dorens
I finally saw the Greek letter plural, staring at me!
another in the area is all consonants
Aha, TY, BR!!
84 to go, I am sleepy and cold, so I am going to get under a blanket on the couch. BBL
bye scrabs
bye scrabs, tc
scrabs i am emailing you
Hey guys, do you have a clue for the ce8 please?
ce 7 == penny: ce*t; and certain; pl

Great - thanks
Would LOVE some help with the last 3 CE words...ce 6/24; 7/36; 7/36---only 4 to go in this grid (also need the ae) Help, anyone?
ce and alt spelling of certain
ce 6/24 are used to fasten things
oops I meant the cl 6/24, sorry
there is an appealing se7.32, you can use that for ce7
alt spelling of the clue hawkins gave you
, sorry meant add a cons to that word
like the plural but change it to another cons
TY Lill, and hi
hi lyn and yvw
Hmmmm...working!
Thx for your ideas....still working on the last three...have the others---need the ones that come after the pennies
is that the ce's jimmel
do you have se7.32 Jimmet, subst c for s
yes, but that's not the one i need...
ce and certain but change vowel
must be my missings C's - thanks for the hint
Thx, lil...on the right track with that!

sorry, and lyn
heh, Ata beat me to it
i don't care, atleast it wasn't me!! :)
Well, my bum IS sore...maybe your hint will get me to the right spelling!
I'm confused - there was no ce7's after the pennies - was there?
passing the butt?
yes, 2 of them!
groan
2 lyn

Cheeky !
pl the 6, 24 and add vowel to other

Hi, Flosey
Hi all. EvaN - I've just been showing my other half your fantabulous studio shots (the icon, the pirate, the beach etc.) He's most impressed. I wonder if there's somewhere over here that does such wonderful shots. You look marvellous.
hi flo and go ata and hi jac
That's whacked! Thanks Ata, Dorens
hi jac
Hi, Jac
Hi everybody I missed!
stupid, innit?
wow lori i'm impressed.. i required spoonfeedin
*blushes* thanky, jacula! i dont know of any photographers over your side of the pond, but i wouldnt be surprised if there were some...you just hafta look around.
Hang in there Andree, I'm pullin' for ya', things will turn around.
Has everyone heard my news? (I'm so obnoxious)
EvaN - Have to make sure it's not a 'dodgy' studio. LOL
yes, but say it anyway :P
tell us again Jell :-)
not me Jellen lol
I was trying combinations Dorens, and didn't think to sticvk a t in it. Whacked I tell you! :)
not at all jell. good news like that bears repeating
Hi Jac - cute pic, if miserable
No, Jellen. I haven't.
what news Jellen
i havent, jellen!
Tim and I are engaged! :-D
jacula -- it helps that both photographers ive worked with are female. :)
CONGRATS jellen!
wonderful Jellen, congrats to you both
Oh, congrats.
Engaged? Again ? :p
EvaN - I'll bear that in mind. Thanks for the tip.
hi jellen and congrats
jell it was that visit with his mother that tipped him over the edge?
ding dong, when are the wedding bells
Thank you! Wedding bells are a long way off...
Could be, Dorens...
congrats Jellen :)
one of my best friends got engaged in November..said same..wedding bells were a long way off! They eloped New Years Eve lol
jac -- if you know of any groups that are into the 50s scene, rockabilly, car shows, swing dancing, that whole era, you could ask around or write emails... ive found that people who are into one piece of it know ALL kinds of people!
it's funny, I know loads of photographers who do oshoots like that, but they are all in America. typical!
Thanks, EvaN.
Hi Ata. You've checked out the British ones?
ata -- i was never into "the scene" but i stumbled across this one girl... after that, im seeing it EVERYWHERE!
I've never checked out the Brits, I just know a lot of American photographers for some reason!
always happens that way!
I'll have a look around some time soon.
brb...
your pic always makes me giggle, jac
*waiting*
for the boy to get here...
*GRRR*
Poor spaniel! Cold ea4.
back later need to move my care to shade and leave the windows open, have to collect grandaughter from softball at midday and if i don't open up i will cook
Does anyone of the oldies remember Anj and Lola? Do you know if they're still together?
it's sooooo pitiful but so funny
'Bye Andree.
we're not sure, boys
Hi Boysaway. Not sure what they're up to.
Anj is fine, someone talked to him the other day, but he didn't mention Lola ...
19 to go... let's see what r's I've missed.
Ata - ah. Thanks for passing that on.
Thanks for that Atalante, often wondered. Also wonder about Miyavi fan sometimes, is she still around?
miya - we're trying to get rolin to poke her and say hi from us all
Oh yes, rolin was her teacher, right?
we were doing a "where's ...." session the other day, which is how I know these things!
yep
those names are from the past boysaway and I would also love to hear from Miya
Were you around that night when it all kicked off with hurshy and the accusations that miya had a japanese alter ego?
yep! ohhhh yes
hi everybody, what's new?
Probably best to leave things like that in the past, methinks.
just tuned in . I remember that...very creepy.
Some idiot outside is trying to sp4 his car wheels on the icy road. Prat!
His bostonmermaid.
Hi, I meant. LOL
stupid bloody american sports *mutter mutter*
anyone have a clue for the lone i in the last column thanks

LOL Ata
in + first 3 letters of an assortment
i spoke to anj not that long ago. he is well + said lola was also...i *think* theyre still together, but not sure. shes on my facebook friends, so i guess i could ask...

Good evening everyone!
Hi Mom!!!! How is everything with you?
***waves a quiet Hi to Mom, from the back of the grid. :)***

hi jac, maddison ans mom and anyone else i've missed
babble group: http://www.facebook.com/pages/B abble/7336571860
{{Lori}}, twice in one day!! That was so much fun this afternoon, wasn't it?
No news yet Mom, it has been showing alot, but no offers.
thanks for asking.
{{Lilliann}} hello, how are you? It has been a while/
I wish you a quick sale, Redturtle.
Mom, it was good for my soul. So great to see everybody there.
hi mom, did the move go ok?#
merci Eva :)
thanks....I am concerned., but...it will work out.
it was, I have missed all of you, it was good to have everyone on at one time
Lilliann, it went just fine, thanks for thinking of me
yes, Redturtle, it will all work out
**quietly says hello to FIVE, as to not break her concentration on the grid**
don't worry red, my mam and dad live in france and it is the same there as in most countries for house selling at the moment
it just has to sell before april.
ok, just sent lola a message...
HI Lill and anyone else I missed whilst seeing to the washing.
Sorry to hear abour your hub's job, Lil.:-(
*trying to think whether the person I think is Lola on FB is actually Lola*
Lori, we should all take a profound saying and make it our own and then make a book and call it ""Babble for the Soul"
{{Jacula}} hello
i'm glad it went well mom and that you are settling in, and i always think of you when i babble, miss talking to you, but i tend to lurk more at the moment
I have been lurking some as well, else I put my foot in my mouth :)
I think Lola's real name is Lisa
Mom, that idea rocks!
thanks jac, but he'll get something, even if it is agency
:)
Lilliann, what happened to your husband's job?
Hope so, Lill. They've had tolay the agency drivers off at my Other Half's place.
Does hurshy still Babble?
yes, I thought so too! Oh, I'm being stupid, no wonder. I was looking at Nutty's friends not Eva's friends. duh!
Boys, she was on this afternoon
you could never put your foot in your mouth mom, you're too nice
oh Lilliann, there are times
I made a snow penguin this afternoon.:-)
There are many of us who go back to the very beginning...
where are the pics, Jacula?
oh right, not good, but an agency up here told him that they had jobs for him and others from their company that they aleways had jobs for good drivers(because of the company that employed them) but no full time positions but they would always get work
hi all..all ready for Babble after a delcious snooze..
Boys, when was the very beginning?
I'll put them on my flickr in a bit, Mom.
I've left enough snow for Beloved to make a snow thing tomorrow.:-)
oh good, Jacula
{{Krista}} hi

Then you're a veteran Mom!
Hi Krista.

I'm still fresh...lol only a couple years, I think.
sad, isn't it Boys?
We had some good hot tub parties with anj and lola
Hey Jac..cook anything yummy today? Your FB reports always make me hungry!
Lori, you came on shortly after I did as I recall
OMG, the hot tub!
OMG, the hot tub!
It says Aug 2005 on my profile but I've been playing much longer than that. (Under other names)
Hi Speed
yes, fingers crossed, he is looking at other options aswell. he went to the job centre when he found out he was going to be made unemployed about retraining and they said that is only for the people who have been unemployed for ages...hopeless cases (their words)!
Well, after a while we acknowledged we were doing nothing but ... so we stepped away for a while, and now I'm hooked again.
Hello Mom!!!
i remember you from when I started, Jac..realized yesterday that Ata has a week on me!
Just looked Mom, I joined Nov, 2006
Krista - Chilli & Bean Burritos with salad, salsa & cheese.

why you lurking, lilli? I always try to, but can't keep my fingers shut
sorry, hi christine
DR - Krista asked me what I'd been cooking lately.
YEs, I get that Lilli- there are certain times when I lurk as well
Like you did Christine, pay for it, except Haz did it for me as a gift.
'Can't keep my fingers shut'? LOL. I like that!
Don't lurk, Lill. We miss you.x
WEll it sounds amazing Jac!
Christine, open an account, pay a small one off fee.
cos Haz is nice
hi Lillian - I sent you a thank you email
That was really nice of Haz, Lori.
i lurk krista, becausen if i talk to all the nice people here, i don't get the grid done and i end up being up all night and i need my beauty sleep desperately!!...lol
Christine is Pro, she just has a gray head.
Nice? Haz made me cry when she did that for me,a nd I don't cry easily....
DR - I sometimes say what I'm cooking on Facebook. Apparently, it makes Krista's mouth water.:-)
me, christine, my email isn't on my profile
Oh, I'm a PRO, my mum would be soooo proud --
Aw, Lori.x
and that's another reason why she did it - cos we knew you'd truly appreciate it! Uni too!
OH- I am not on Facebook
lol Red
I'm not a grayhead, I'm blond-ish (as my Dad said, more ish than blonde, these day)
Uni and I sitting here in the living room, blubbering like idiots, with the boys staring at us...it was a beautiful thing.
darn phone ...
Yes, but Christine, you have a gray head here!
yeah, jac..I'm coming back as a man in my next life so I will have a cook
or rich
yeah, rich is better
Lillian, you sent your email to me (Dorset buttons)
I can just imagine that!!
ol Krista- In our house- hubby cooks
hello all
Oh, no picture, can't risk scaring the young'uns
That's truly how it was Ata.

I am rather craving something sweet and bready.
Mr P likes Bloo
rum? where??

(Cheese on Foster's)
Krista- my fave episode is when they try to give cheese away for free- sorry if I told you that before
*sticks tongue out*
Chees is hysterically funny!
When Cheese locks them out of the home, that one's great, the new security system to keep cheese out
I thought I was weird for lovingthat show
u didn't tell me that before..yes, good one..I dont think they run Foster's anymore...
They do in Australia bcuz Mr P wanted to knowwhere to get a Bloo bobblehead
or at least I haven't seen it lately..oh yes..the one where they were locked out! lol
Gah! Ata, blond it down for me pwetty pwease?
LOL Red's house has just been *****d at $lots of money
YEP! I like that one too
It's been what????????????
i remember seeing a Fosters billboard of Cheese saying "I pooted." (on the internet, that is)
if ni4/5 is a word, and a dog does it again, why isn't ren4 a word?
my osn has that shirt!
gah!! ok. um. re + the ***** of money goes up and down
* son
I ***** your friendship. Utterly. Sincerely. Honestly
When Blue is in the bathroom, and Mr Heeriman(sp?) tells him to hurry up, Blue says "I'll be out in a minute Mr 2 sheets" lolol
ROFL!!
OMG I was trying to 3rd letter it with s

<-----DENSA Prez Thanks Ata, I feel dumb(er) now

'Night Ata. Dormez bien.
GNight Ata!

hello all, back to find my last 77
3 left!! aghhhh, where are they??
oh yes -- different direction, duh
OOOHHH...going the other way! thanks!
We can all head to the densa Box together.
FYI, if you want to be my friend on facebook, you MUST include your babble name. Someone just asked to be my friend. Her initials are JN. I do not know who she is
**grind grind grind** (opening tuna)...Hi Peri
yes, peri, that's a very good idea!
Hi Peri
Hi Peri.
densa..is that like Mensa for the not so smart?
Densa -- great name for the Duh Society
love it
77 left here and tired of this grid and tired in general
hard day?
I wish there was a good place to put each person's Babble name in her/his profile...or is there?
I have 160 left and do not like it!
I stole it from loriP.
peri -- I hope you got my icon clue at least
Ooh, can I join Densa?
I don't think I got your icon clue, jilli
lol Jilli, that is funny
I agree jellen -- I forget who's who in FB
I don't know Jellen, I will have to go thru all the BAbble people on facebook to see if she is a babbler. If not will delete the request since I do not know anyone by that name
me too, I have all the qualifications for Densa
jellen..we could put it on the left on the profiles
yes, I did, jilli, thanks :-)
ok last 8 letter word for me the su8 any help please
I wlll do that then, Krista
Will look Krista!
peri -- did you click on my icon clue? It's pretty obvious...
mine isn't too hard to figure out...click on the left under your picture where it says edit profile
It's hilarious, jilli!
my Babble name, that is...very funny Jilli!
Hi Bzz
yes, I did, jilli, and I already had the word, but thanks
jilli loved it!
Hi, Mom.
glad the little guy got you a laugh
clue for the ne5/10, just don't see it
hi bbz
hi Bzz and MagMom
Hi Magazinemom

Oh, that was easy, Krista!
I have 60 left now -- must dive in....*kersplosh*
I've tried twice now to upload the pics to Flickr but it doesn't seem to be working at the moment.:-)
I meant, :-(
Hi Mag!
Hi again, magmom!
maybe tomorrow it will be working
hi mm
Hi, Bzzn!
Good, Jellen! I owe you a big congratulations, too!
Thanks, Krista!
ne5/10 is it a fish?
please help with the su8 word thanks
Do u have a date set?
I'll try again tomorrow, Mom. It's no good putting it up as an icon pic 'cos I think it'd be too small. I'll try though.
okay Jac
su+ cons+ stop
I hope not peri, because I don't have it either and I would hate to have join Lori's DENSA group
Oh no, we plan a long engagement...
peri...I have it, but am unsure how to clue it....I am terrible at clues
Jellen, how long is a long engagement?

mag..funny!
great jac, look forward to seeing it, just don't add an egg....lol
Mom - got plenty of snow here, thanks.
hey y'all - things have been going well except for thursday afternoon. y'all recall i had the left breast biopsy last year. i went for a mammo recheck & got a call from my surgeon requesting i come to see him tuesday at 3pm. rats - i thought i was through with worrying about that
egg..uh huh..sure :-)
hi speed
Oh heck, nance. Best of luck.x
good luck Nance
thank you sweetie
shucks, wanting the snow to be gone
I will add you to my prayers Nance
aww sorry nance ... hope it turns out to be nothing
sweeties jacula, mom, dr & all of you - thank you for your prayers & pep talks.
Nance, if I may ask what ever happened to your husband and his job?
rats, nance, hope will send positive thoughts your way
nance, sending big hugs and loads of good luck your way
thank you wild
thanks peri
{{{{{{{Nance}}}}}}

never a dull moment in this chick's life - LOL
Peri - have we got any Scrambles outstanding?
it was negative last year, I take it, Nance?

thank you mag
it's probably nothing, but boy, that waiting is hard
not sure, Jac, have not played yet today.
Amen, Krista
I'm going to wander off to Facebook to check. Happy Babbling all. Lovely to see you all. xx
not sure if I will play Scramble after Babble, feeling kind of tired
the biopsy was negative - my left breast now is smaller than my right - i wonder if this is going to happen often - if so, do y'all think that the surgeon will have to operate after every abnormal mammo?
bye jac - tc & hb
{{Jacula}} good to see you, bye for now

need a clue for eu7 please
first sa5 is sa consonant and double vowel
not fish mag. but kinda hard to see. look backwards
thanks JBV and all... this is a good class to work with. It's the "ideal" in terms of behavior and matched ability. I will have something to measure later teaching by...
yay stid!!!!
the second and third, anyway, magmom -- took me forever to see those also -- what's sa5 for the goose is sa5 for the gander
ty lbd- I usually fail to look in the right direction LOL
eu+ stid will be teaching a cl*** of 6th graders, change last letter to a vowel
ty fuquay
thanks for that cl4! :-D
first one is Indian dress, usually has i on the end
Es grey
thanks lbd
ty ty ty!
wow...did a second refresh and got words I knew I'd already put in (dropped my hunt to 179)!
what will you be teaching, stid, any particular subject ?
wish I could do it again and have it find all the rest!
lol pini
6th grade language arts, focusing on grammar and spelling
what fun, stid
(oh, and the mouse works again...dau didn't realize it need the batteries replaced)
ok that eu + what stid is teaching w/ last letter to a vowel is not working for me....
it's right up my alley...
*needed
now it is
do you have a full 40 or 45 minutes for that? we have a 90-minute block for language arts
my monkeys much be sabotaging me
eu+ 3rd letter + do re me fa so ** ti, + **e you in the funny papers
we have two periods for block, about 2 hours on the days I will be there. I will do Monday and Friday, and take half the time.
got it
I think. We are going to sit down on Monday morning and work it out. Don't need to start it up for about two weeks.
just poor typing on my part
thanks LBD
can this be counted as part of your student teaching, stid?
I would love some U cl++s.... I have un+looked at, un_not resceaved, the 4/5 having to do with the kidneys and plural
I am stymied by the re 7/8 at the end there...
no LBD, it won't -- BUT it is good experience, and I think it will go a long way toward helping me get into the master's program
to assess worth
stid: to price again
reassess,
thanks fuquay!

4 columns gray and 11 left
wow 19 left.

are you ok?
do you want me to go smack someone for you??
oh gad. nrk -- are you okay? *very worried look*
* blink * what? nrkii?
yeah... been waiting for that other shoe to drop for a couple of months... I think the new boss was trying to learn as much as possible about my team and my job before he was ready to fire me
ouch...that sucks
*hauls back to hit boss*
sounds like a real stinker, nrk
* mumbles * jerk
I'm angry, and disheartened, and worried about money, but also just glad it's over and I don't have to show up on Monday
please tell me you'll get unemployment??
((((nrk)))) I am sad
Well, nrkii, that is rotten. Another door opens and all that. Still very angry to think people can be soooo mean.
it's like getting a nasty diagnosis but knowing there's some treatment to come and a cure in the offing?
hello Mother
.
what a dickhead
hi mere -- did you see about your jacket?
I'll be able to collect, but not enough to pay mortgage, so it's going to be scary for a while
jeez, nrkii :(
well, I was unemployed for 22 months recently, and it sucked. I wish I could help,
.
hm. this is rotten.
*dryer yelling -- back soon
anyhow, sorry to suck up the sympathy and run, but it's 9:20 and I soooooo need food before my blood sugar drops into total hysteria territory
but banks are SUPPOSED to be willing to help in situations just like this, at least that is what the folks on "marketplace" say
hang in there nrkii
thanks for letting me vent... I'll see you all tomorrow!
go nrk, take good care of yourself. we'll be here later
be kind to yourself, nrkii -- it's specially important now
((NRKII))
Jilli, no my jacket--where, when, how?
Yes, nrkii, we'll be here.

I should call you gmere for short, I guess
Hello ibdawger--it is really an ele but I like the I be dawger idea.
nm the postage, silly
The trouble of posting, carrying charges, wrapping fees, blood, sweat, and tears. Worth something my dear jillibus.

sweet dreams, fuqu
thanks LBD

yup
how about the TE 6 after the plural letter?
got it! thx!

william shakesp***

un + hard
oops, un + not hard
no, they kept me until 2, then dismissed me without cause, i assume the prosecutor didn't like me for being too reasonable.
hm. not very kind of them. (((hugs))) well that's over for now then
thanks LBD *thinking*
got it!
no worries. i was kind of hoping to be chosen, actually
thx lbd...another one I didn't have
down to FIVE!
SN's done!!!
yay stid! i'm down to 134 :)
apparently I forgot some C words

or, go pini! lol
go stid go!
babblets of course...

(back to the top again)
DO what?? LOL
whooooo ohoooooooo STID!!!
wtg stid!
yay stid!
WOW stid!!!
first au?
how come you can recuse, but can't cuse?
good question, jes. i tried it too
first AU and second are rather like latin for gold
congrats, stid - i just got my fireworks, too!
I got the 2nd...
whooooo hoooooo JBV!!
wtg jbv
change the last letter to a vowel, pini
YAY JBV!!!!
stid - and anyone interested in good news - here's a story in our local paper about a project created by two great teachers and a bunch of super kids at our hs (ESL students) http://www.mycentraljersey.com/articl e/20090205/EDUCATION/902050332/1025/ED UCATION05
got the first now for th
e first 3 as's
type of tree, pini
got it
thanks JBV
I'm not going to make you guys cl4 the remaining 137 words...
no problem, pini.
wow that is a great thing, JBV! were you involved in this?
i'm just sitting here watching the puppies. a couple have the hiccups.
(not yet anyway!) LOL
oh, those puppies of dan's are too sweet!
I just flipped to the pups, too...they're rollin' over each other...
stid, i am the director of the bilingual/esl program in this district - and proud to be a MODEL PROGRAM!
woo-hoo! JBV, that is spectacular!
*waits for all of pini's clues*
I used to help in the ESL class when I was a highschool student. One of the more rewarding things I have done.
that's cheating, jes!! LOL
This is a fantastic team of teachers - started as a 9th grade team, now in 10th, they are so creative
jbv, that is such an excellent example of students working together for success
why? i'm sure i need many of the same words you do...
we'll start at the beginning and go down the list, shall we?
I know, jes...just messin' with ya!
I love that it allows the older readers to work on things at their level without making them feel it is "beneath" them -- to know that they will be helping younger students even as they improve their own skills is excellent
i'll ask one, then you ask one, that'd be fair :)
stid, that sounds like a great idea for us, too, thanks for the thought - we do not have anything like that at the moment (English speakers working in the ESL class - did you get service credit?)
and reading aloud, it can be such a challenge especially for esl students.
ae 6... like the roman name for odysseus... AR 4 god of war, as 5 shaking tree and plural for 6... LOL
as+ 3.14 + plural letter
awww sleeping puppies
yes, it's a real "authentic" experience in so many ways - this is why I love my job
okay, stidkid has loaded the dishwasher and is going to do a couple of the pans, while I bake a cake or something... it's just the two of us tonight while the other kid and tom are at the high school basketball game.
thanks stid :) *has to go look up roman mythology*
AS's done!!!
have fun, stid!
oh -- I am WRONG -- it's not the roman name for odysseus... dumb dumb dumb. hold on...
enjoy stid
"a Trojan hero, the son of prince Anchises and the goddess Venus" according to wikipedia

Will these S's ever CE5/12!?
I just figured they were all in a conga line at stid's house :-)
I don't think so, Bzzn
Just don't try fancy babbling and driving at the same time. She is a wonderful conversationalist. I do enjoy her company and I know you do too.
no bea, they won't. I'm still missing 13 of the little #)(&#$
We have our hands full with this grid. And my husband is pouting badly about the government. Poof.
oh, most definitely, stidgmere!!!

I'm not going to finish, but I will keep trucking while I can
I have 35 left I need cl4'd :-)

I've wondered about it...should look into it

Hi
what's the cost of skype?
{{{{{herin}}}}}
hi herin
hi herin! go magz!
go magz go!
I broke 100 --- now at 94!
(((hugs)))
my dogs are eyeing me strangely...they want more french fries, I can see it in their beady little eyes
clue for te 9 plz>?????
go pini! *does little babble happy dance around pini*
do you have the te8?
i really shouldn't be here
why not herin?
te8 = itty bitty
i have the 8. but cant get the 9.........
te9 = te8 + cons before the s
you add a consonant to the middle of the 8
I ahve study to do
basically same meaning with a spelling twist
no, no...studying last, babble first :-0
pini the 8 ends in cons. before the s. so i am confused.
I have 5 subjects and my life to sort out
put the extra cons. after the part that means young adult
do you have te8/40?
well herin...that is probably a bit trickier :-)
if so, add a cross in the middle
i have the eight.
oh, herin...wow...
yup
I have to get my home diary sorted. Like what i have to do and such
nope not working. do i use te 4 or 5 before the cons that is extra?
4
yes te4 and then the cross letter and then the same ending as the 8
TE4 + cons + suffix
ty got it.
la5/10 (#1) plz?
sorry pini, that is one I am missing
LA5/10 a misspelled lion's home
the one before that one, buzz?
need second va 5 plz.
nm got it.
Drop the final cons of the 2nd la5 and add a vowel.
va+ ***h limbaugh
Sorry, pini.
it's ok...
la+ like the sa5 indian dress

thx lbd
and plural!

la+ roses are **d + 2nd vowel
odd spelling of nickname for Lawrence

a beleiver in new things Une
believer
some ice cream makers are cranky also...
oh, nrkii...isn't that what the grid is for? My favorite saying: Distraction without discounting"
ur 5 -- add, first second or third b***
thx br
:) PAV
Pini, I think I'd feel better playing asteroids tonight, so I could blow things up
ne 5 --- add, schindler's l***
yeay! my task is done for the day...(to make someone smile...)
asteroids! yeah!
tx . . . just couldn't see it!
I understand, nrkii...but you know we're here for ya, right??? Even tho the day seems like crap...
great job, PAV ... you get a smiley face!
that's why I logeed back on Pini, thanks :)
nrkii - i believe your icon is the queen of the sn5/10 :)
is it still the shoulder Nrkii?
yes, I think you're right firefly!
DR, no, I got fired today
eep. 24 minutes, and 119 words left...
OH! I am so sorry!
that stinks big time!
I'm playing along on Bable Expert, (lickety's list) trying to find as many as I can wihtout using aids, 'cept for the chatlog...
nrkii, I'm sorry
yeah, the job has been awful for last few months, but still was paying the bills, so really didn't want to lose it just yet
I've been doing the same thing, pav...
..it's working so far!
so sorry, nrkii
nrkii!!....makes me just want to go out there and maim an ex-Pres Bush and cronies for what htey've done to us...and I thought my day was (somewhat) depressing...
sorry PAV, this one can't be blamed on any ex presidents... old boss loved me, old boss left, new boss didn't love me so much
ce 7, 7, 8 clues? please?
is old boss somewhere thatyou can go?
bad time to be looking -DD & SiL both have hours cut, but at least there's a paycheck. and our governor's cut hours for state employees
ce7 = rhymes with se7 (ce + cons + us*** things happen)
I've been there as well...never wanted to hit a woman as much before...
the company is completely disfunctional, so if you lose a champion, you can end up on the wrong side of the fray
Well, nrkii, lets kick Bush & the evil Veep, anyway
DR, not sure, but he's one of the first people I emailed
it would make us all feel better
thanks
oooh, you said a word, christine!
wouldn't it, dr?
I'm so anti-any-politician these days, I think I'd hurt my feet
My fave boss left 4 yrs ago and I am FINALLY working with her again
last un7 plz?
My Mum's aadvice was always that this way you'd be available for a relly good job.
I was thinking of running for school board in my town, but now I have to wait to see if my next job is going to make me have to relocate
I was laid off by my former boss about 4 years ago, still work for him via freelance at some exorbatent (sp) rates...still good friends...
un7= if you save a penny it is unSP***
thx dr
oops, had to reread, couldn't think what word I said. Didn't even have that one
=]
I'm a state employee (AZ) meself, and last night's news wasn't pleasant....but my boss did let us know our agency isn't as bad off, not until July anywhooo
