stid, he wants UVic -- only 5 spots available in Poetry
go PAV go!
hey stid; q's done here as well! love q's
I have a question - seeing as some of you have your Flickr photos showing in your profiles. When I go Pro and if I want some of mine I have on Flickr to show in my profile, do they have to be set 'Public,' I assume? All of mine on there now are viewable to 'Friends' and 'Family' only . . .
flip !!
we seat 6 every year, jilli...
6 poets and 6 fiction writers...
another little iddy biddy one!
Qs done here too. Also Z and B and M.... *wicked grin* (made you look!)
excuse me -- only ONE spot in Poetry. Don't ask. He should be doing graphic novels or something
JC, that is a question! I am not sure hun
tsk Stid
oh you stid!! LOL
yes the flickr settings need to be set to public
he7
Yes, I see - thanks, stidmama.
hi all
hello joshua!
and stiddie the all knowing can help!!
hi josh :))
So if I have some in a set and mark that set (or all the photos in that one set) public, they should show up, even though my other ones will be private?
Pini -- where is "here"?
UO, Jilli...(Oregon)

Pini, I'm emailing grandson with your news. Please will you email me with details? My address is at the end of my profile.

I'm at 56 and stuck...did you say they're actually 99 words?
I think it's tricky jilli

I have 17 left, actually. they're real words mostly,just not all that common
NBT
took forever for me to figure out the top Y
wtg freep!
just picked a pretty one, don't know anything about them jilli
ok ok ok gruyere is not there
mine is the only one I know anything about and Goodle helped, lol!
how cheesy, ruru
ha - actually i'm imagining gruyere right now, but it's not in the grid, it's on a plate on my desk
hello all
hi west :)
hi jilli
another small one I see
west, hubby served on a real Corvette , North Atlantic in WW2
did he see any action jilli?
CNN is going on about that appalling, hypocritical, traitorous egoist Rush Limbaugh, ugh
I'm with Josh...however I must take the cheese and run...the movie beckons...ciao mes amis...bonne nuit...
stuck on that top Y for NBT
a bit, west -- didn't talk about it much, dwelt more on the action in the poker games he won, lol
he's getting air time and that's what he wants
babblet of sorts, hugs. yo4/8
yo4/8
hello westie jilli evy1
hello justt
I gave you an extra t lol
hi just -- barely saw you last night -- you vanished as I said hello
thanks just... NBT now
that's ok westie I can use anything I can get
I know sorry,,,,saw that after I had logged out
I'm still a miserable cripple :(
still winter up your way?
oh dear! Still sliding up and down stairs?
well not sliding, but assing, yes. Thank gawd my tail bone has healed but still cannot put any pressuse on my right foot
west, winter in Montreal lasts into April
I think we'll be copying you this year just
in my house westie, the temp is temperate...ie 73 or 23c.....have not been out since Jan 26th
if I say "bummer", just, will you hit me?
keep warm that's all you can do
although next Mon....have doc's appt....will be still another month at that point that I'll not be able to put pressure on this foot

good for you josh
??? bookmark bar??? hacked??
bad stuff happened a few days ago just
oh?
oh my. he6 x 6!
dr god had to go to a new server
a hacker got in and shut Babble down -- Dr_G had to change to a new server
because?
fireworks
sigh.....can't people get a life?
WOW freep!!!
wtg freep......bbs......must go to main floor
I'm back. 2 grids finished today - thank goodness they were small to get my brain re- aligned with thinking out words
Fireworks

hi anike -- did you finish this one?
yay anike!
YAY anike -- guess it's easier when you lurk?
YAY, freep and anike!
Yes jilli
jilli I don't have a favorite race car I just picked corvette and found these facts
too tired tonight, 30 to go. Be back tomorrow, goodnight all

hi and bye flosey rest well
fell asleep in meeting again today - shame, shame!
g'night flosey
well done, flosey -- I'm blind tonight -- 73 to go and 3 BTs
must have been an interest ing meeting!
it's very embarrassing jilli, have done so even when very interesting
jilli just read yours quite amazing
and in front row too!
I'm off - must visit my Mum. Been away for 10 days and she misses me.
and yours too flosey
lol, flosey -- wish you'd fall asleep at bridge so we could do some winning!
thanks west
I somehow wish you had been in the Powder Puff Derby then I could say I knew someone who was
lol jilli, don't think my partner would allow it! although I have, in fact fallen asleep playing a hand - - very briefly, forgot what had gone and had to wing it
lurking fireworks!
ROFL, flosey!!!
I do that when playing hands all the time
yay pug..do you want to keep lurking or can I say hi?
hi west
YAY pug, you old smarty, you!
off to bed, poof
I have 71 to go better get busy
this late at night I wouldn't get far if i was chatting
woohoo pug!
west, I have 70 to go, lol
but it's fun chatting now
i didn't find this one a heinous as the last wee grid
It's always fun jilli
what in the world is a seacock?
more fun at some times than others, west
don't ask, west!
an oceanic rooster?
lol
a prick with a sail boat?
hmm I knew a few of those
probably a stopper in the side of a boat? Should have checked the ? yesterday
rotfl, pugs!!
my husband spent 25 years in the navy and he didn't know
really, west!
or he wouldn't tell me lol
*running to Oxford Dictionary*
exactly right Jilli, to let water in
Hello everyone
I thought that was a no no
hi lyn
hi, lynxxx
hi rbud
hi again
hi andree
well since an hour has elapsed since flip i suppose I should offer if clues are wanted before I go flop.....Any takers?
hello Andree. It's cold and raining! Hooray! and they are letting firefighters and residents go home!
my neighbour just called in to say they had been robbed last week and again today
what does the 8 start with pug please
oh no andree
its an RE
cold and raining is usually not good but in this case excellent news
with RE, wouldn't you know?
ty pug
fireworks
I hate re words
yahooo huga

Ugh Andree...and you would feel very uneasy too I bet
re6 x 2
way to go hugs!
I got the 8 yay
Congrats Hugs!
go west!
it was fairly decent
they took outside potplants and came back for the rest today!!! did not get into the house
thanks rbud, west, lyn, pug
jerks
well, I'm off... g'night everyone
Really! how weird, perhaps they weren't 'professionals'
gn hugs take care
seacock: 1. Any of various birds, as the grey plover. 2. A name for species of gurnard. 3.(joc) A bold sea-rover. 4. In a marine steam-engine: A cock on the pipe which runs from the boiler into the sea.
plant stealers? O_O
very weird, must be crazy to risk taking pot plants
bye hugs
thanks jilli I think I'll take the bold sea rover
still like the prick with the sail boat....
i am now worried for my beautiful elephants at my front door
And a diff def here for seacock - a valve in the hull of a vessel for admitting outside water into some part of the hull, as a ballast tank.
knew a bunch of those on Long Island
lol pug
that was my maiden name
seacock?
seacock? west
what, west -- Seacock?
no, Hull
I expect the valve empties the waste from the heads into the sea
I'd take them inside for a while Andree
LOL, west!
well my lovlies ,if nobody is frustrated enough to want clues yet i shall wish you all a fond good night & Happy Babbling.
hi BabRab
just like a rgular cock, babrab?
hello, lyn

Its all good BabRab. Cold & raining here. Firefighters and residents (where they can) going home
Good to hear that, lynxxx
babble news from lynxxx cold and raining in victoria, just what they need and they are now letting people go back to their homes
what great news! thanks, lyn
that is good news
thanks, Andree
babrab -- that's quite an image in your icon
back from Iraz
iraq
poignant, babrab
It says a lot doesn't it. Good timing by the photographer too
good pic babble
now so Obama does now send those back to afghanistan
war is hell
I was just thinking that jilli
13 left here
so often go to kill people you do not know for reasons you do not understand
like why anyone would attack a sporting team
Andree, CBC is discussing that right now
what happened?
theirs not to reason why, theirs just to do and die
I am so repulsed by those who govern in the US -- I would dearly love to tell them to their faces
they have not caught any of them how is that possible
charge of the light brigade
see? US news didn't cover it. The Sri Lankan cricket team was attacked in Pakistan and about 6 police were killed, ame number of players injured.
they may have I didn't watch the news today
yesterdays news west
oh
hi josh :))
hi andree :))
fireworks
andree... this weekend is on
it was mentioned slightly on US news. Very important in Pakistan and the UK and anywhere that cricket is played. Also scary, because there was some talk about its being revenge for the attack in Bombay/Mumbai
gj mixi !!
we are bbqing from 4pm
YAY mixi!!!
yay, mixi!
what happened to settling disputes with words?
I like tennis because the audience it polite and supportive.
<--- diving into grid *splosh*
congrats, mixi
enjoy your swim jilli
halfway and finally NBT!
andree ??
sorry mrp, off and on tonight, jules is going out and i am just about to bath the kids
this saturday as organised before
gr 5/20 anyone?
that is the extra, ru
huh?
what extra
bbs
the list has 98 words. the gr 5/20 is the extra
99 words
thanks... now I can stop wasting time on it
done
wow, yay, ruru!!!!
YAY ruru!!!
I agree with the words you have in your profile babble..
thanks you guys.
NBT here, approaching halfway in spite of too much chatting ;)
when can we war and take action on poverty here in the US?
I think about all the senseless loss of lives in iraq and feel hopeless about it.
I am very disappointed in many things
there's likely to be so much more poverty soon, too - at least I'm afraid there will. So many jobs gone.
laid off over 100 where my husband works, and his hours and benefits got cut back.
ouch. rbud.. that is happening out here too
sorry about that rose.
Even Law firms are laying lawyers off
we're well-versed at being poor, long years of practice. :)
I grew up poor...
so I do know what it feels like
left home at 16 to start my life..
we own our house, so that's good. And Hubby's a good mechanic, besides his machinist job. Always cars and motorcycles to fix.
but so many can't afford to fix them!
the $18 billion in bonuses should have gone to keep people working
I would have been happy with the 1/2 a million AIG spent on spa treatments...
the war has cost over 600 billion!
absolutely right on babble...
the war has cost us the economy and trillions of dollars
and the respect of many nations
well.. to be honest jilli ... we lost the respect of many nations when we elected George Bush...
and he started the war
actually, you didn't elect him anyway -- the Supreme Court did
because of his father... and not because of any real threat
ach
well that is true too jilli... that and some missing chads in florida...
I thought Nixon was bad enough... then Reagan... now George Bush set a whole new standard for incompetence
I've always been a fan of the idea that we should send our leaders out to fight these things out in a one-on-one fight. Would sure change how we picked 'em, huh?
no use going over all that now
I would go with Hilary in that case...lol
I miss Bill CLinton ...
(I would pick up the cost of his dry cleaning)
lol, ru!
or Monica's? (Sorry -- cheap shot)
(same difference)
What a shame about those clay feet
where did I hear... "all the best Presidents were promiscuous" lol
?
clay feet?
Bill's feet of clay
not following you...
I know he stuck his foot in his mouth more than once
I know he stuck his foot in his mouth more than once
I know he stuck his foot in his mouth more than once
feet of clay: "a character flaw that is usually not readily apparent"
oh.. never heard that before..
Feet of clay - fundamental weakness (of a person) Also idol with feet of clay: a person (occasionally thing) much admired but fatally flawed. ...An old expression. You are obviously young Ruru, hi
I should ramble/rumble off to bed.. night all ...good luck with the grid ..
Night Ruru
hey I know that expression, lol. Morning all.
Daniel 31-33 Thou, O king, sawest, and behold a great image. This great image, whose brightness was excellent, stood before thee; and the form thereof was terrible. 32 This image's head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass, 33 His legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay.
not that young..lol... and certainly OLD enough to know better...lol
hi princess
hi spritey :D
jilli.. you are amazing..
I knew it had to do with an idol, but there you have it.
Google is amazing, ruru
luvu to bits, jilli
Hello Sprite, I was just thinking I hadn't seen you for a bit
luv jilli whole.. not in pieces..
lol
Awww, you guys....
having a tough time, lyn, and not always playing at the same time of day as a result. Love to see this crew together :)
cool car, sprite!
thanks rbud :)
that's not good Sprite, but it is VERY good to have you here
sorry to hear that, sprite
hugs
it is great to BE he4 too, lyn, and thanks. Babble usually makes me happier, not in the least through the good company
hi herin
hey lady, thanks, and jilli thanks too
love your race car and story, jilli
hi Infernal
thanks to dear old Dad, sprite :)
your Dad was really someone special, jilli. Every time you tell about him, it shows!
sprite, has your car ever actually raced?
as I understood from the site, it has raced but not won.
hi sprite - nice to see you
I hope Autumn Moon comes and sees all these cool cars
hi yosh, it's mutual :)
I think she does, jilli. She is not a regular chatter, but she is a regular player and enjoys the icons.
*josh
Hugs spritee
lots of people around the world pronounce my name yosh, sprite - it's cool
hey all
love the hugs, lady. RIght back at ye.
hi bfs
Is there something wrong with today's chat?
how goes it?
we would, in Holland, josh!
i know! it happened there!
hi bsfog, hi Merk. Nothing seems to be wrong, Merk, but I couldn't enter the site at first, kept getting an error page.
hi Merk, not this end - except at hiccup time
hello bfsog
didn't even notice a hiccup this time
I had to refresh to read my entry. It has all been brown boxes telling me to contact dr_god
ohoh, Merk, that is irritating. It was the normal chat behaviour during the hacking.
that happened here last night -- weird
I see the red boxes now if I am trying to enter at hiccup time
I hope drG is alert to the possibility that the hacker will try again on the new server...
well, I must go to bed -- library day tomorrow. We have a new computer system to learn :(
it depends on what the hacker did. if it was relating to a bug in drg code then yes, he should patch it. if it was a server issue then its out of his hands
wow jilli, challenging. But you will manage, just give yourself time. Big *hug* and sleep well!
Oh was that last week's problem ... a hacker? I never heard that. I can only squeeze in time here in bits and pieces when I'm in China.
fireworks
Are you in China again now, Merk?
it was, Merk. Bfsog, that is true. I trust drG took a new server with better safety measures.
YAY josh!!!
wtg josh!
congrats Josh
Yes, since the end of January.
where in china?
Harbin ... brrrr
We will leave Sunday p.m. and I'll get home Monday afternoon.
not a good place, Merk, or just a cold place?
Cold place ... wonderful in all other respects. We saw the Snow and Ice Sculptures again ... better every winter.
back again
I was out today and when I got home there was a message on my answering machine. It was all in Chinese! I think I heard the word for China and for Yes. Very strange.
wb Andree
lovely, Merk :) Glad you are enjoying your stay.
how odd, jilli!
Yes, I am, as always. I hope I make it back here in July. There's always the chance they'll assign me elsewhere, but I always put in my plea for here.
Well, it's back to work for me. Have a good end to your Wednesday.
I'm supposed to be on a Do Not Call list too.
someone likely wang the wong number
have a good time, Merk
lol babble
morning everyone
hi everyone, this is the fourth time i have tried to play but keep getting red things etc
*groannnnn* BabbleRabble!
bye merk
Glad you like Harbin, Merk! It wasn't the favourite of the Old China Hands.
hi sandy, it isn't just you, but it isn't universal either.
Awful, babrab!
hi Cool & Sandy
hi cool!
Hi and bye, cool and sandy -- I'm off to bed NOW!
night jilli, again ;)
bye Jilli
*poof*
I am really discombobulated tonight.
wow lady, not su4 what that means but it sounds impressive :)
hi cool, sandy and herin
I have just reentered again- what is going on? hi everyone jilli sprite lynx
it means of 2 minds
im havinga reallyhorrible week my son didnt get a place in any school so im going to have t appeal plus my cmputer crashed yesterday so i couldnt even consol myself with my babble and friends fuuny how when lucks with u everything goes right but when it isnt the opposite occurs
lucky you, i have trouble locating my 1 mind
hi Niks
hi niks, we don't know really
to confuse or disconcert; upset; frustrate: The speaker was completely discombobulated by the hecklers
great word, lady, but not a pleasant state of mind
WOW Cool that really sucks
thanks lyn
sorry to hear that, cool girl
thanks lady, I mean, sorry
aw cool, how rotten!
cool thats bad
that sucks cool He is very smart lad and they are stupid not to accept him
don't know what the big deal is, herein, that is normal for me
yeah but you know how to make it work, BabbleRabble
i no i was really upset but you have to bounce back as they say what dont kill u makes u stronger
i no i was really upset but you have to bounce back as they say what dont kill u makes u stronger
private school/s Cool? I saw a program on that topic, the competition seems very fierce!
you will, cool. But it doesn't make it fun.
i dont no y that repeated twice sorry
ok now im back again!
wb sandly
hi again sandy
cool we have to book our kids into private schools at birth
hi Sandy
those who keep getting the red menace may want to inform Dr_God; Scroll down and click "Send them" to email him
Cool - is your house back in one piece again?
Cool, did your house blow up?
there not private there academy ut what really annoys me is that my son was born in hackney has always schooled in hackney he had 100 attendance and won a science scholarship for hackney which is an underachieving area and he still didnt get a place it makes wonder what u have to do it seems only the badly brought up kids or the troublemakers seem to get everything
Ok I am off two minds. My b.fs friend is getting married and I'm not invited. One mind is thinking maybe he wants to have a small wedding just friends cheap it low key. The other part of my brain is thinking. The snobby bastard wants the guests to buy gifts from a top end store and the reception is at a really expensive place. So how can you not have invited your friend and partner. I have been with the b.f for 6 years and this guy knows it.
very frustrating, cool
thanks 4 asking about my home lynxxx its all fixed apart from painting no it didnt blow up sandy it flooded
lady, let your bf ask the friend why you are not invited
ooh herin that is bad, if you live with b f, then you should be invited , small wedding or not
that seems very unfair Cool and Herin that sounds as though they cant afford things
Cool that is sucky about the school
i would feel offended to hern id ask
b.f. should ask or refuse to go
thanks hern
That is terrible Cool , it sounds like you are having a bad time
Infernal...I agree w. Sprite. That is just bad manners. Get your bf to check that the invitation does include you - naturally - otherwise if I was him I would decline it
I think if you are having a weeding and you think well ''and guest'' they may bring a random person. But we have been together for 6 years. Its not like im some random slapper
is b.f. going herin
yeah but after the storm the sun always shines
No its says Dear B..... that is all its all fancy and stuff.
Exactly Cool.
No Idea Andree he is too interested in his new game
Nowadays , some people will invite only one to save money- so that may be it- I would take Sprite's advice herin and ask the bf to ask
thats quite rude in england its common on an invatation to put and friend or guest on the card
i am sure if you are not invited he won't attend, it's so rude of his freind
Sandy to save money you wouldn't have your dream weeding at Expensive Place with Guest list from Expensive Store.
friend too
My pacifist mind is maybe they just stuffed up on the invites so be it
I guess so Herin, but you never know until you find out
I wont find out as nerd boy has a new pc game.
i am sure it is just an oversight herin
u will ever no unless u check get your partner to ring and just check then at least your no the truth
BBL
bye lyn *hug*
Cool also my aunt would say ''God opens one door to close another'' I am very sure your son will be expected some were better
*sad that Eeyore isn't valid*
I thought I was doing yesterdays grid
its the waiting hern i wont no till september and then ile have to start looking again for another school
im with u sprite i love eeyore
I think i have tried everything with that ae4 -it's driving me even more crazy than I am naturally
cool :) And I think as well that there is a better place for your boy to go, but finding it is quite frustrating.
Can you start doing your research now and see if there is another place that will accept him and have a scholarship entrance exam? I don't know how England does it
not su4 if it is the meaning, but it sounds like place where eagles sleep, sandy
they say everything happens 4 a reason ive just got to wait a litte while to see what it is
it would be nice if they told you the reason while you were having to face and solve the problems, wouldn't it!
WHOO HOO finally, lol, thanks for that
wtg sandy!
OH ALso my school has scholarships.
ive got another school in mind but its not as near i just worry with all the violence in london at moment but i also no u have to let your children breathe and learn its hard though cause his my baby his my youngest
Cool, if I was you , I would go and personally see the headmaster
i tried to get him into 4 schools on the appeal i get to see the heads
How old is he?
sounds like you are doing all the right things, cool. Will take lots of patience to sit it all out, but keep faith it will turn out for the best.
ho5/12 please
hes 11 in may
plural to ho4/5?
was he boked into any of these schools cool
booked too
and this is a government school Cool?
it doesnt work like that in uk anymore all children have to applt though there junior school we applied last october and found out yesterday his headmistress is fighting for me cause she loves him hes classed as young and gifted so hes got a lot of awards for the school
In Australia the kids change from primary school to high school in grade 7 -that is the year they turn 13
yeah most schools in uk are goverment schools
yeah grade 7 in uk is 11
did you find it, Andree?
here at a government school they have to take you at the nearest school,
Persist there Cool - he sounds like he deserves to go where he wants to go- Here they have to be accepted to the nearest government school if they are not going private
thx sprite
great :)
thats how it used to be here but since we opened our doors to east europe theres been such high demands 4 the schools in london
Do a lot of kids go to private schools when they reach high school in the UK. Lots of kids here go private but it is costly
bbs
bye for now, Andree
uh oh the red devil is appearing again
not really the rich do i went to a private boarding school but i couldnt sen my kids away from home
For private boarding schools here in WA it is about $30,000 a year My kids went private day school and that was about $10,000 a year (I got a job to send them)
My g.f years ago got a full scholarship for all the course
Catholic schools are a lot cheaper and many of them are very good

firewords
yay bfsog
it is quiet in here!
BOOOOOOOOOO
argh
hi
BFs are you married or just partnered?
married? ha, thats scary talk
OK so long term partner?
yeah
Ok so if I sent you a wedding invite to just you and not her she would be pissed?
does she know you? and am i willing to go without her?
if she knows you as well then yeah she would
Ok I know of her as in there is Mrs BFs (in theory)
then yeah she would be miffed if she did not get an invite, especially as its a wedding, its always plus one isnt it
but i wouldnt go without her so i would tell whoever sent the invite that mrs bfsog is coming
Thats what I thought. my B.f just got a fancy invite no mrs mentioned. I have been attached to him for 6 years
and the person knows he and you are together
er about 90% sure
but if not wouldn't it be and guest (sorry dude i totally forgot her name)
if she didnt get an invite but it said "plus 1" then she wouldnt mind, as it is odd receiving an invite from someone you do not really know
maybe the invite says plus 1
Nope no where on it
right to be miffed
It says the usually weeding shtuff. Mr B and Miss B are getting married on this day You are invited
Thank you
is he going to go?
and does your man know the groom or bride?
I like to actually hear a male Point of View since mine ahs Empire Total war and is being useless
Oh yes he has been friends with this guy for ages. I was thinking that it was small scale due to costs then I saw the venue and what they want given and from wear and im like nope there is no way they are being tight
oh and these H words are driving me batty
do you want clues or are you a grafter
I have a day off tomorrow thanks though
hello all :))
hi presie
oh man! had to refresh again!! what is wrong with babble??
hi infern :))
how you going chickie...? study ok?
idno
YEs that is all good
If you read back tghat is my current issue
readback isn't working... give it to me
I see lickety has one extra word... hmmm
5 letter too
ok long story short. Snooty uppity Wedding b.f has been invited to him alone. Not me so im pissy
tell them to FO, and he shouldn't go
that happened to me too, my BF was invited to his very good friend's wedding, but cause I wasn't, he told them to piss off and didn't go. I thought that was very decent of him, and it certainly taught his friend a lesson in propriety
Yes. My first thought was Oh he must be doing it on the cheap keep it small then I saw the gift registry (top end) and then the venue and im like FO no way
Well mine is being a turd tonight
I think he will speak to the guy simple mistake (but not to put on and guest is rude.
infern, he better do the right thing
Or ill shake my fist. Sure hun its ok im not upset you go and have a good time and don't forget we didn't buy them a gift
I had to keep my wedding small, so I only invited couples who were living together... not just 'going out'. It made it simple and easy to understand. My now SIL wasn't invited cause she was a girlfriend (only just met my brother), and my ex BF didn't have his girlfriend invited cause they were not 'committed'. I don't know if that makes sense to anyone, but I think it helped us to make it much easier with invites.
isn't it common there to say mrp + guest?
no infern! This is bullshit
I think it is
kje, not when you need to keep your party down to 65
I wasn't invited to a wedding cause the bride didn't like me... they had 500 people at the wedding
Well the venue fits 220 its at a snobby venue VERY $$$ and the gift Reg is through not DJ's
but mrp - you didn't invite the singles, so that is different... if you invite a single, i think it is common to say "and date"... etc
Well its not like I haven't been attached to him for 6 years
surgically herin?
: )
I didn't invite singles.
The only singles I had were in my wedding party. All three girls were single
herin - he can call and clarify... I would like to bring my SO... then if they say no, you know
And all the boys in Lickety's party were singles too (except for 1, the best man, who was engaged)
well... people should be able to do what they want on their wedding day... but if they are going to be super particular, then they should expect some may get offended
how old were you guys, mrp?
KJE we share the same Facially expressions at times
you are certainly a significant other... they are indecent not to invite you. I do hope it was an error, but doubt it. These things are well planned
Look Im not being a princess about this issue but alot of other fiends of ours will be there. OH KJE i miss you
Good Morning Everyone
honestly, I have never gotten an invite that didn't say guest.... guess my friends keep hoping - LOL
Hi Alexis
Kje we loves you
hi alexis
we were 27 when we married! Made sure we were both the same age! LOL, even if it is for 4 months of the year
ty herin - i loves you all too
hi alexis... nice to meet you
Nice to meet you Mr. President
I had no idea the president liked to Babble
kje, I had to make a decision, to keep numbers down. It was difficult, but everyone understood
seriously, alexis???? that is a hilarious book title!!!
mmmmmm yummy Bananas sprayed 50 times a year now imported into Aus
LOL Alexis! indeed I do!
At least we finally have a president that knows how to spell :)
WOW can I have $2000 for lip syncing and claiming I have talent?
yep mrp... i think it is easy if you make that clear... it is different though if it can be taken as an obvious slight... like there has already been a history of excluding that person, etc
Alex can I friend you on Flickr please?
oh indeed Alexis! smart, talented and handsome, with a gorgeous family
Of course
Love your pussycats Alexis! Infern will shit you to tears with her pusscat stories! LOL (((hugs infern)))
yah I love your Inapropriate kitty pics
describing yourself or obama, mrp? cuz it fits either way - LOL
kje, I think that excluding a partner is rude... infern is living with her BF in a defacto relationship... it is the same as being married.
Yep. Love my kitties
agree mrp....
oh thanks kje! I accept the handsome, but think I might be a little prettier! LOL
What do you mean inapropriate? They just love each other
Kitties 001 looks so naughty
I'm starting to think this president thing is a sham. His flag says he's from Australia.
handsome use to be used in old books to describe women... wonder when it became for men only?
Grody is a word
i think it os spelled grodey
jk
Nope More words says Grody
LOL herin - i can't believe it has it in there!
handsome describes a manly woman!
Alexis! can't I be a president??
sorry mrp.... will not call you handsome - LOL
I am running for president across the universe!
WILL call you sassy though
What's your platform, Mr. Pres?
oh thanks kje! I don't think I look too manly! LOL
I am PC, what is yours?
her platform is shoes... shoes for everyone...
drool shoes
and another plank is that SO's should be invited to weddings
love shoes!! and hats.... and bags... and gloves.... and jewellery... HECK! I LOVE ACCESSORIES!
are we talking those awesome platform shoes like pee-wee herman wears?
she also promises to keep babble free from trolls during her tenure
indeedy-i-do kje!
alexis, you can call me mrp
infern, kje, alexis.... how many pairs of shoes do you own??
I think 5. I'm not a big shoe person
hmmmm.... must count....25ish?
G'd mornign Babblers! ***another tiny grid :(***
I wear all the time 5 pairs
Just don't ask me how many pair of jeans I own. That would take a long time to count...
hi lori! LOL - just looked at the count when you said that... had started without looking, was distracted by wedding debates
hi lori :))
One pair of 16 ups (i think) Docs, one pair of ankle boots, one pair of gym sneakers, one pair of black sneakers, a pair of ballet flats, a pair of thongs and a pair of heels
KJ, I don't even know where I would keep that many pair of shoes
I own 27 pairs of jeans
well, i probably wear the same 4-5 pair most of the time... but you need others for certain outfits or occasions... or just cuz they make your legs look fantastic
Hi Lori
I own 4 pair of jeans - LOL
I like that we're all getting up and counting our clothes
I have a tub of random shoes too. I love heels they don't love me.
How can you only have 4 pair of jeans KJ?
I own 60 pairs of shoes ((embarassed))
25???? that isn't horrid - i feel like imelda marcos amongst you guys - LOL
Ha! I hope you have a huge closet Mr.P
jeans are my staple diet! LOL
MR Pres that is well wow
I have every colour denim!
TY for coming out with your shoe number mr!!!
Ok I went to the great Target and apparently the jeans I love to wear are soooooo last season. I didn't think Jeans had seasons
I am the Imelda Marcos of Australia!
MrP, that's an oxymoron [so to speak]
I can't count my jeans... the boyfriend is sleeping and probably wouldn't like for me to turn the light on to count clothes :)
cuz I only wear jeans on occasion... most of my wardrobe is for work and i cannot wear jeans to work
jeans on weekends only... how many pair do you need?
i need hundreds, KJ
Hmm, another small grid...evil too?
and in the summer... i seldom wear jeans - too dang hot!!! I tend to wear light skirts or linen
Alexis! he is asleep!
My wardrobe consists of jeans and offensive t-shirts. I couldn't imagine wearing anything else
G'd mornign Scrabbler! Ijust started, so it's not evil. Yet.
welll alexis - you live in chiacgo... you wouldn't wear jeans in 100+ temps - they are HOT
Just poofing in , have been lurking a bit. Currently I have 4 pairs of shoes here...Probably have a total of 6 pairs and I own 2 pairs of jeans. I guess I just have other things. I do own lots of running shorts kirts etc.
It's 6am here, mrp
I need at least 10 pair a week, and then I have my good jeans, for shopping, then I have my awesome jeans, for going out... then I have my sexy jeans, for... sex!
haha!
Alex have you seen Snorgle tees?
LOL mrp
I have 2 pairs of jeans, 3 pairs of work shoes, 3 pairs of water sandals, tennis sneakers, hiking sneakers....
I know alexis! it is 11pm here!
scrabs! (hugs)
I am such a fashion loser, especially compared to you, mrp.
Hi Scrabler I am so glad to see you. i read that you lot got snowed in
morning ladies:)
oh my darling L embarassed me good! I don't know if I can tell this story??
ummm... no losers here! just different tastes and priorities
Fashion loser, or practical Scrabbler?
go ahead mrp
Ho cwossy, the wabbits gweet you today
oh scrabs! what makes you think I am a fashion winner?
G'd morning crossy
hi crossy!!! just in time for some sexy stories
herin, the snow was east of me--the northeast corridor
Lori, I am all about function and simplicity
Yes, that was I who was snowed in.
ok I knows not of my geography
Crosssssssssy
mrp--all those jeans and shoes!!
oh this story might be a bit too much actually... I have to put out a warning
8 gone
crossy watches with great interest....
well... then let me go get my coffee and settle in, mrp - brb
Same here Scrabbler. I only have a volume of clothing that can actually be worn.
But I AM a fashion loser---frequent violations--black shoes with brown pants (recent error), once I wore 2 different color shoes...I wear LL Bean, simple clothes.
Bichon--how much snow did you get?
crossy, your SOH might punch you!
as some of you know, I got a new housekeeper. She is fabulous... totally committed to her job. Does all my washing, folding etc.
Good Morning Scrabbler
Well, she comes to me the other day with a pair of underwear... saying that they need to be 'mended'
We got about a foot. It's now very frozen slushy ice on the road. My m.i.l. in Richmond got 6" and you'd think it was the end of the world
Alex seen Snorg tees?
No... are they good?
oh did babble chat go down??
I get all my T's from tshirthell.com
I went on a trip to New Zealand, and brought Teva's for two different feet. Good for a few chuckles
yes but no more
www.snorgtees.com
OMG mrp - LOLOL
i just read back
Ok I gotta run to Nurtitional Nazi, btu Maybe Scrabbler and I could go on "WHat Not to Wear?" Everyone Have a good day, BBL.

Silly crossy
I tend to like tshirthell better. They really don't care what they put on their shirts so they're really offensive. I have to think about where I'm going when I get dressed most of the time.
ur + re 4/5
Sadly not as the sites are pricey to send to aus. I do use the site for ideas.
Vulgar... hmmm, not what infern is, but she has a sense of humour!

LOVE!! Empire Mag!! I read it cover to cover
Hi! Thanks for asking, Scrabbs. The throat feels a lot better but I do still feel very weird and totally drained, and my eys still suck. But definite improvement. Oh and my left ear popped-- internal swelling must be down!
:D Ehva Dahling.
The BEST movie mag in the world mrp!!!!!
Good for you, MG
Been a subscriber for over 5 years now
I totally agree movieman!

I'm honestly very surprised at how sick this made me.

Eva dn ZsaZsa Gabor. And wasn't there a 3rd sister?
Hard to believe Empire is 20 years old this year
Yes...was it Magda? She wasn't as famous
*and
I can't believe I have to go to work already. Have a good day everyone!
Magda Gabor?
Later kje, Alexis
Bye Alexia
And for the life of me I could never figure out what they were famous for, except for being rich and beautiful.
Sorry, AlexiS
They certainly were void of talent, IMO
I must get ready for work too. Bye all. Enjoy the day.
Bye Scrabbs!
Have a Richard Free day Scrabbler. Take care.
seeya scrabs
Eva, Ava, and ZsaXZsa....I think Magda was the mom
34 words found---ugh.
Can anyone clue a Q word? Either Q word?
20 years!! holy heck!
jolie was the mom chilie
Richard is away but still omnipresent with phone calls, e-mails and his spies reporting to him.
qu 4/9 then plural.......
There is a Q in the grid?
Thanks!
TY, Lori.
Scrabbler, curse technology! :S
gr5/20?
Thoght those wre with an A. Go figure.
Chiley, Jolie was Zsa Zsa Gabor's mother
I just looked it up-the other sister was, indeed, Magda. What swamp in my mind did that crawl out of?
OK, bye all!
movieman, what have you watched lately??
bye scrabs!
Had an interesting time this afternoon when I picked Walter up-- his friend wants to come over Friday, so I needed to arrange this with said friend's mom. Thing is, she doesn't speak English or Dutch and I don't speak Swahili... but we got it arranged.
I saw Push last week Mrp, and I will be seeing Watchmen on Saturday
Sorry grom, but the good news is that's my missing g! ***looking***
I haven't heard of Push!
there are many movies we don't get here in cinemas, they got straight to DVD
It's a similar film to last year's Jumper, and it stars Dakota Fanning and Chris Evans
Stuck for a U. Have the hankerings and the u + repeat. What's the fourth one look like?
grom, I have my last g, but it's a gr 5/14
I loved Jumper!

I love all of Sam Jackson's films
I wanna see more movies with James McEvoy... he is a talent
S Jackson is a legend without being dead!

I am going to start collecting movies with Josh Hartnett too
Thanks!
OK, Walter has completed consumption of his fish sticks and it's into the shower with him! Back sporadically. Have fun all!
I have loads of movies with Sam Jackson in them
I am desperately seeking 'mozart and the whale' in region 1 DVD
I want to try to get as many Christina Ricci films as possible next
I also am going to collect all movies with Will Smith. I appreciate him since I Am Legend
Oh yeah, Will Smith as well

Thanks MM. Ata Hari!!!!!

oops, thanks also to kje
hi ata :))
good morning - stopping in for a moment and smiling at MonkeyGames story - monkey my son's best friends in Kindergarten were Brazilian, Polish and Taiwanese - made play dates with all of their moms, across the language barrier! if the kids can do it, so can we!
cool, mrp!!
hi JBV! long time no see!
drom, I posted earlier. There doesn't seem to be one gr 5/14 gr 4/7 and ge 5/16
hi mrp - i think I missed Monkey but hello to all!
love the icon movieman!
ty!
i have only a few minutes before work but this grid looks impossible today
hi droman :)
G'd morning JBV
I chose it 'cos of Slumdog's success mrp
hi Lori
hi there
and droman and movieman!
I'm trying to keep myself awake by looking at the grid
hiya jbv
Is Slumdog as great as it is portrayed by the oscars?
hi ata... smug about staying awake now?
Napping is always a pleasing alternative. Why not nap Ata Hari?
Oh bugger, my cat has awoken.....
I have to ask, cause some movies have received so many oscars, and I didn't think they were all that
Afternoon all Thought I would pop in for a couple of mins having finally finished the grid
congrats FM!!!
i saw Slum Dog and LOVED it!
howdy fm:)) ((()))
And the cat is now up on my desk
FM!!!!!! ***whammo with a Big a$$ pillow***
Think it deserved 8 awards then JBV?
FM!!
the child actors were amazing, the music is fabulous, kind of a predictable story but told in the frame of the game show - very original
Oh, and congratulations FM!
*waterbombs Lori in return* ((crossy)) Hello all :))
***hides behind Uni, and uses the child as a shield***
off topic... I actually walked out of 'the producers'... thought it was absolute crap
and of course, the portrayal of slum life in Mumbai - a horror that most people were not aware of, that I guess is why it was so controversial
hi fmitch!! (((hugs)))
hiya fmitch
... and of course as soon as I enter the chat the phone rings *sigh*
producers sucked
you mean the new version of the producers?
broadway was fun, but didn't translate to the screen
one movie I can watch over and over is 'romeo and juliet'. bloody brilliant
yes jbv, I did not like it
the old one with zero mostel was perfect - can't improve on that
and fmitch leaves me hanging with a hug :(
i use to watch much ado about nothing over and over when i was an intern and really needed to laugh
that is a very good move kje!
good luck everyone - off to start my morning
hagd jbv
how dare clients phone her? :P
Have a good one JBV
am I the only one, or is Jimmy Fallon not doing so well on Late Night
bye JBV!
must run again - sigh
Those clients are very thoughtless if you ask me. Callign during Business/Babble hours!
Any other films that folks are keenly anticipating?
Laters kje.
I am sure I gave ata a hug
or at least a big smile!
bye kje!
I'm su4 you did!
*pokes tongue out at ata*
Back but have to go as work is demanding my presence. Byeee
bye fm!
***pouty face*** Starts crooning "Stay...just a little bit longer. Please, please, please please
they don't really need you ....
oh won't you staaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy, just a little bit looooonnngggerrrrrr.... pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease.
I've just checked (using imdb.com) and I have 33 films on DVD starring Sam Jackson
movies i want to see..mmm i want to see "the boy in the striped pyjamas"
oh wow movieman! that is awesome!
I think I have 1 LOL
one of my fav movies is 'wrong man'
i can watch that over and over! excellent acting from all the brilliant boys and girls
**hears the songs and they echo around the office* Happy thought to poof on. Heads off to earn a buck or two :))
***Take care FM*** Laters!

got a busy day?
'I have had it with these muthaf*****' snakes on this muthaf*****' plane!!!!'
***not sure if I should say G'd morning merly, or administer meds....**** :)
I really really want to see Requiem for a Dream, have done for ages, but I know I'll just get angsted with all the needles!

hello merlypoop??
oh movieman! I didn't watch that... for a perfectly valid reason!
oh ok love you x
lori, take the meds now!
someone say meds?:)
wow, merlypoop is a bit narcissistic today!
You're talking about 'Snakes' mrp?
ring who??
crossy, what you need hun?
snakes are friggin too much for me
from a country that has 9 of the deadliest out of 12 in the world
*** bemused ***
letss see ,something for blood presure,something for arthritis and something to make me cruise through the day with a big goofy grin on my face:)
Australia is the deadly wildlife capital of the Globe
the friggin idiot cat brought one home, dumped it in the laundry and left it for me to 'deal with'. But this b!atch also put a rat in my drier.... so I don't talk to her much! LOL
the snakes are the heros, we ended up wanting the snakes to win
Even the spiders walk around with baseball bats and switchblades
cross! you need to go on my diet!!
movieman! did you see I got bitten by one of those bastard spiders??
What happened, mrp?
you diet mrp? huh go figure you already look fine;)
I was out for 2 days!
Bloody hell, mrp!!!!!
hi all. mr. p!
cross, I don't diet for weight loss... I diet for life. We have diabetes and stroke and high blood pressure in our family... so I eat to keep that away from me :))
howdy T.O
oh crossy! you are a darling!!! I appreciate the 'fine'
owl!!!!! (((((hugs)))))
ahh i see mrp:) thought as much..i was going to say tasty;)
clues for the lone e and a words plz
tasty is good too! LOL! :))
actually i have to get all the salt i can out of my diet
salt is ok,,, but not with fat
as long as you dring lots of water, you can salt up all you want
bread is my weakness;(
oh baby!! bread is only 2 slices a day!
fresh ,steaming loaves out of the oven all covered i n butter...mmmmmm
no matter what i eat, i gain lately. :(
that is just like Maddison! she loves her butter with a little bread!
lol
oh owl! it is hormonal darling... it too shall pass
clues for the lone e and a words plz
i just read where it doesn't . the av women gains 2 lbs per year after 50
'THEY' just completed some study... women have 15% more fat than men during 'old age'... and old age is considered over 45
well then just shoot me :/
ah movieman! can't help... I haven't even started! LOL
I need to prepare my gun
e - currency of Ireland
a - like an eagle's nest
ae = eagle's nest
mind you... I have to say I am totally blown away by a food company that supplies people with food according to their height and weight.
ty ata and temple
I want them to deliver me food, cause I don't eat
hi ata. mr p aer you referring to jenny craig?
I put in my height and weight... I am below normal weight (just into underweight), and they suggested I diet Holy f&%$! I rang them to confirm, and they still said I needed to diet. That is friggin sad
who are these madmen? i have no doubt they are men
G'd morning TO, anyone I missed.
I am in every right to sue the bastards
hi lorip!
with these diet companies... they just go with 'lose weight'. I need a healthy diet, but they can't give me that
i am going now...may lurk a bit but am at work. see you in about three hours!
I was sure they also catered to 'normal' weight people... as they advertise
wasn't there 98 words yesterday?
lolol all this yakkin' and I'm still not halfway. Wonder if there's a connection.
bye owl! (((hugs)))
btw does anyone else protest that the grid won't accept "grody"?

this Nadya freak is pissing me off... she is just wrong!
i'm good... actually really good...the only "proble" I can say I have..IF it is a problem...95% of the stress I lived with for over 1 1/2 years...is gone...and now my body is saying NOW u can sleep...ok..WHEN does it become enough sleep...I can sleep 12-14 hours..get up...go to work for 8 hours...come home nap..then go back to bed 1 hour later and sleep all nite
who is nadya?
good morning Babblers :)
G'd morning Nono! ***waving to hubby*** :)
***hubby waving back****
He's stopped questioning our Babble craziness already Nono? :D
why do you always wave to nono's husband, lori? *looks suspicious*
he gave up on it Lori LOL
wow carlee! your body is begging for rest! time to listen to it and sleep sleep sleep
i don't have TIME to sleep is the problem I guess... fortunately...am shedding weight left and right..that is good... man i would love to FINALLY get to pre preggie #1 size again
nadya is that idiot woman with 14 children! she has had many surgical procedures to look like 'angelina jolie', and lied to get implanted with 8 kids
if your body wants too much rest, there is something else going on in body or mind/spirit.
oh..her...I didn't know her name... TO..all my bloodwork is NORMAL...I've checked into all that rot with dr
TO is right Carlee, and if your loosing weight too perhaps you should see your doc?
ooh mr p she looks like the joker - the one on the batman tv series. hideous.
***whistles innocently, ignores Ata's query***

yes, cheesecake is important
***suspects that TO is fibbing, and is actually trying to silently observe***
bey TO
bye too
No cheesecake would be like punishmenty, and that'd be the anti PB mood.
yes, we do not believe in punishing offenders... we send them to PB paradise
i PROMISE...I will bake cheesecake this weekend..ok?
I'll make extras..we can freeze them...and then the PB well supplied for a week or so...?
ok Carlee
when your cheesecakes are there I will make a special effort to go in :)
i suspect keeping the PB stocked with cheesecake could be a full time job
okie kokie nono

and hi everyone :)
I tried it again and it says it was not found in the dictionary, but it also flashed yellow, meaning I already have it
bl
Is there a gr5/20 word in the grid?
Could there be an extra word in Lickety?
ge5/16, gr5/14, gr4/7

bbiab
and kje
ok, back
why is this nadja still getting attention??
need a clue for last he6 please?
cos she's a publicity whore
she needs to get out of the material world and stop being a material bird
Hi Mrp and Ata
isn't it sick ata
hi annie :))
because people feel bad for the babies I think MrP
she is a dog
the babes are the innocent ones in the whole mess
I feel sorry for the children.
I am thinking they will find her mentally incompetent to care for them
I hope so
can only hope so nono
no way... they let kids be raised by wolves every day
arrggghhh! Can I get a clue for one of the re5's...I have the first one..need the other 2
i wonder what it would do to the babies to get split up though
Annie, colour again
she would have to commit murder before they would terminate her parental rights
i mean, there are twin studies on being split up, i wonder what happens to larger multiples
that would be unfortunate ts
thanks, flosey
but they'd have to, right? i mean, who can take care of that many babies at once? willingness to do it is almost grounds for insanity, ya know?
and - re5 left clothes on the line - it rained, had to re*** them
do you really think it would take that magmom
I have a friend who is a foster parent and every day these kids are returned to parents who are abusive, neglectful, some of them still drug addicted. It's sickening. In comparison, she's a saint.
clue for te6 please?
thanks, lori and flosey..you saved my sanity
dont have it, flo
well, and foster families aren't always better
did anyone ever get that gr 5 20? i missed it somehow.
the rock with crystals in the center mkg
mkg, that might be the extra word in the list today
she is looking for 10 more nannies?? she has 2... oh my god!
she wants everything written up by an attorney, cause she doesn't want them 'split up
gr 5/20 is an extra in the list not in the grid
she is screwwed
oh, i ignored the 20... sorry :)
the gr5/20 is an extra word in lickety's list
hi br :)
howdy folks
all S's su?
hi sato
the ge 5/16; gr 5/16; gr 4/7
and how does she aford the 2 nannies she has?
need a clue for the last he6, please

I am missing my daughter sooooooo much! I just can't sleep
Where is she MrP ?
Lay your sleeping head, my love, Human on my faithless arm; Time and fevers burn away Individual beauty from Thoughtful children, and the grave Proves the child ephemeral: But in my arms till break of day Let the living creature lie, Mortal, guilty, but to me The entirely beautiful.
WOW BabRab !

In the meantime, here is a lullaby for you......
Time for me to run, as well. Good luck all!
Golden slumbers kiss your eyes, Smiles await you when you rise. Sleep, pretty baby, Do not cry, And I will sing a lullaby. Cares you know not, Therefore sleep, While over you a watch I'll keep. Sleep, pretty darling, Do not cry, And I will sing a lullaby.
we have a farm for the kids... and a beach house for the kids

See ya Takuma....
how old is she now, mrp?
I see a countdown in progression......... Go kje go !!
I was away from my boy for 6 days and missed him terribly, and I didn't have the extra stress of him being ill, so I know you must be stressed out

Hello everyone! You're welcome, Annie.
oh, MrP -- i LOVE your icon. :)
thanks eva!!
thank you aussie!
and to everyone here, Happy National Grammar Day!
hi haz1558 :))
Good evening mrpresident.
oh wow! I love Grammar!!!!
the gr5/20 really is a word.... it means sleezy
I went to a grammar school!!
fireworks!
didn't they teach you about excessive use of exclamation marks???!!!
congrats Annie!
Sydney Church of Engand Girls Grammar School... SCEGGS
Grammar is the skeleton upon which any language is hung. Or is that too mixed a metaphor?
oh ata! the $15,000 fees were wasted on me darling! I am a socialist now. It taught me to fight for my rights! Social Science was my forte
and my children question everything!
I love them for their intuition
My children question nothing. They know I am right, it saves so much time.
Haz, how true when it comes to what I know and understand, they are completely in agreement... but I am a very educated woman
and FIREWORKS!!
Congratulations Nono!
yay nono!!!
test
It must be nice to be educated.
I might be wrong, but they have to prove it! LOL
mustn't it?
You're coming through, BDG.
hi bookwoman!!!
hiyall
'sup, MrPrez??
screen got stuck there . . .
am I on my own in being educated in the private system??
nope. I went to the best girl's private school in the UK
We're so backward here we barely have schools.
Gwen! lovely to see you!
* yawn * morning all (here for a few)
does australia call its public schools private schools? (in US, public ones are the ones paid for by taxes)
oh rubbish! the UK has wonderful school, as I understand
morning Pini
hi pini!! get a cuppa and join us!
private v public schools? I attended DOD and parochial (both considered "private")
england maybe, northern ireland'sa different story ...
Mmmm, thx mrp...
A different story completely.
I'm not book smart. I'm more magazine smart.
lol chiley
Hello chiley.
Hi Hax and Gwen, and all Babblers
they just learn how to drink guinness over there
ooh, i found a 7
and how to dress up as leprechauns
Yes, and how to brew poteen. It's the quality of the water that makes the difference.
I went to a Church of England School... cost my parents beyond comprehension. But... if a child 'wants' to learn, it doesn't matter what school they go to... they will excel
i was edumacated in public schools, and i have the mental damage to prove it 8-)
not true at all
* gads, how I want to return to my warm bed - but know if I do, will be late for work *
Yes, the leprechaun training is very hard on those who grow tall.
ooh, another 7
my children are very talented. my daughter is extremely smart and has the opportunity to go to any high school. Luke is too smart... so he will attend a school that has extention classes for special needs
(sad to have missed the leprechaun training)
Those who have ginger hair have a natural advantage in the leprechaun training stakes.
you're rather perky this morning, Gwen...care to share your 7's? (I only have 1 and am not moving as quickly) ;)
and those with that Irish charm and twinkles in their eyes
Ata, not true at all?
okay, he7, a bunch of people who make square topiaries
are leprechaun exclusively irish? or are there any scottish?
ca7, describes what the people did who brought all the food
I nearly forgot about the Irish dancing classes. Legs working like fury and your two arms the one length.
have that one, gwen ;)
had the ca5 of that one...didn't think to extend...thx gwen!
There are no Scottish leprechauns. We're exclusive in our leprechaunness.
do you get sword dancing, or is that just Scotland?
We use swords for fighting.
Maddison is doing sword dancing this year! LOL
My kids swallow swords. They're that good.
didn't the IRA realise this? Silly people
She is learning the highland dance
my dog does too
hmmm...sword dancing, eh? I think I'll watch (I kinda like being tall)
When there's disagreement over the best poteen recipe, out come the swords.
Those leprechauns may look benign, but fire them up with poteen, give them a sword each and stand back!
We're even worse off here, there's only like 1 skool per every couple thousand kids. Learnin's highly overrated.
*gives haz a gold star for excellent incorporation of a babblet into normal(ish) conversation*
In Australia, we have much wonder... our children are easily educated. If I want my kids to learn something, I ask the school, and they arrange it. It is an amazing charm of our schools system
And one teacher at the school?
what about stripping?
Teacher ?
Thank you, Evan. I'll treasure it.
stripping ??
Stripping lessons come later.
lol Ehva
do not get me started on schooling topics!
Don't you have teachers, Lori? They're the ones with the canes.
I do NOT want to see a leprechaun stripping.
stripping lessons???
Haz could go to Aus and teach stripping
what are you talking about
Or have a misunderstood something somewhere?
"grody" is a real word where i'm from
I've heard of something called a blackboard but it sounds a bit far-fetched.
It's okay. If leprechauns strip, it only reveals that they are completely covered in ginger hair.
are you talking about maddison?? stripping lessons??
Haz, where are you gettin' all these fancy terms from? Hi Vic!!!
ew, haz!
Some people think that they're seeing orang-utans, but no, it's just naked leprechauns.
Just as long as they're not into stripping AND shaving, then.
NO, shaving of leprechauns was outlawed in the 16th century.
i don't imagine anyone is suggesting stripping lessons for your daughter :)
So leprechains are not exclusively Irish! It's just that the ones in Borneo are too hot to wear the little green suits and buckled shoes and all.
they are only allowed poodle cuts nowadays
***Gah, neighbor is here. BBL***
I must say... my daughter just turned 11.
Good thinking, Vicuna. They have that twinkly eyed charm as well - the Borneo Leprechauns.
Oops, bye, Lori!
Stripping lessons only given to the wallpaper apprentices in leprechaun school.
I think this has a science article written all over it. To be submitted to "The Journal of Irreproducible Results."
yep, about time she learnt
I used to to strip a lot but I have no wallapaper left now :(
Of course, the paint apprentices in wallpaper school (Leprechaun division) have to be dissuaded from using themselves as paint rollers. So messy afterwards.
FM!
You could strip old furniture.
must be off to get ready for work...cya l8r today...
Hey there Vi :)
FMitch! Yes, strip off all the polish and revarnish.
Bye Pini.
how extreme.
(completely lost track of the gist of this convo)
Bye, Pini.
Ah now ya talking Vi - old furniture stripping is brilliant but so time consuming.
ANd when they do the pole dancing.... whooeee!
gwen, it is an infamous convo...
We have a spindle-back chair with ALL the moves.
could you dance around a pole stripping it? If a pole ever needed stripping?
What wrong with Poles dancing?
Good afternoon . . .
LOL Fm
they are too busy drinking vodka usually
Have you seen the book "Sliding down the flagpole naked" by Dick Burns?
The Poish race have some wonderful country dancing skills
Do they dance to balalaika, or is that only Russians?
LOL chiley
Ooooooh we could get into funny book titles - that's if we knew what books were.
one thing I can talk about.. I was expressing my feelings about my 11 year old daughter, and it went south. Thankfully she isn't online. Cause it could have been taken very badly. But... I am giving my friends on babble the benefit of the doubt and wishing they are joking around
Of course, FM, you know all about the Greeks dancing.
Not sure Vi but throw in some baklava and that will help grease the pole
funny book titles, now that i can talk about. here's a few: http://tomfolio.pbwiki.com/AuthorAptro nyms
I'm glad she wasn't online when you were talking about your underwear, mrp.
And have them wear balaclavas, too.
We've just been having some fun, that's all. NOthing directed at Maddison at all.
Hmmm . . . I'll try that again. Good afternoon . . .
hi JC !!
hi JC
Good afternoon J C
*in dutiful student at an assembly voice* Good afternoon, J.C.
the room is strange right now
MrP having only just joined the convo I have no idea what your post is about
totally understand that Haz! thank you for clarifying
oh yes, I think that would have been more traumatic!
Hi J.C
FMitch, no problem at all! thank you sweetie!
i keep looking up from my notes and shaking my head... :)
no prob ata!
i/m off for now, you kids enjoy yourselves 8-) *poink*
Hi, Mr. President sir! Oops, I mean ma'am! ;)
I can only assure you, mrp, that when we discuss orangutans as leprechauns and antique chairs dancing to balaikas we are absolutely deadly serious.
**snort***
bye gwen!
Hi Tragicstud, Haz and Vicuna . . .
LOL vicuna!!
Bye, Book Doc!
Got a cold, FM?
ugh- mrp, if you'd like to be put to sleep you can do my billing for me :)
You can call me mrp J.C.
OK, mrp . . .
tragic.... it will never happen! LOL!
i'm 3 months behind
*hands FM a handkerchief*
A cold, ugh - I have one of them.
I've got a cold, Haz. Had it for a week and I don't feel any better. Anyone got a clue for the gr5,20?
*hands J.C. a handkerchief*
so much trouble..
ugh ugh ugh
Sympathies, J.C.
*hands hydra a handkerchief*
The clue for gr5/20 - ignore it. It is an ex-gr5/20.
*buys stock in handkerchief company*
ok, gotta see a client. have a good till i see you again all :)
Cue for ca4/7, please - anyone?
Bye, tragicstud!
Thankee for the hanky!
Erm - make the 'clue'. :P
Awy hydra - feel well soon, Im under the weather too. gr5/20 is a phntom does not exist
Yes, do all buy Kleenex Balsam tissues. Nothing to do with me having shares in the business or anything, they're just awfully nice.
ca4/7 - low coral islands
Erm - maie THAT 'clue'! I can't type now.
my goodness Haz! how long have you been online that you saw the talk about my underwear!??? THAT was a funny last laugh! She is away... she is very sick.
Better correct "maie" while you're at it! lol
LOL JC - welcome to the typo club :)
The ca4/7 is is like the Florida K--- spelt differently.
J C can join FM in the creative typing lesson.
Got it - thank you so much, Vicuna! :)
And Hydra . . .
HAHAHA, OK Haz - my typing's usually not bad at all, when I'm not sick, overtired and dopey on cold medicine! :P
MrP don't forget that anyone can look back at the log and even google it
My clue was lousy. It should have been singular. Brain full of muzziness.
mrp, I usually read back in the chat log. Sometimes my chin is at ground level by the time I've finished.
fmitch, they can, and I hope they see the bright side
J C - make any excuse you like, we've heard them all before from FM.
Ooh, it gets that good, does it Haz?
*picks up Haz's chin carefully and shut her gaping mouthg*
Then we have to hoist it up with some good-old-fashioned nonsense for her.
the bright side of underwear ... hmmm!
I see, Haz . . .
The side with the spotlights shining on it?
LOL Haz!! Lucky for my kids that they don't read the log
Thanks FM, the drooling was beginning to cause a problem.
Lovely Spaniel in your photo, Haz - Springer or Brittany?
but, lucky for my kids that their parent's love eachother very much
The brighter side of underwear - only if washed in the bio friendly bleach bestest washing powder??
She's Spangle, a Welsh Springer.
Oh, OK - very sweet face on her! :)
"So you won't have ashamed-to-show-it whites."
She has - the breeder described her as having a 'Love Me' face.
Good morning kids ..
Spangle AKA as The Glittery one and JC you should see Ata's bouncy dog too
Good morning torgone.
she's not very bouncy in this pic!
Oh fmitch! it was totally wrong! She presented my underwear to me... completely inappropriate! I had to 'chastise' L for the 'oversite'
Hey Torg
I have a lovely little girl myself - she's a mongrel though, a rescue adopted from a shelter. She's probably about the size of yours, only light-boned, and she's smooth-coated, solid black except for a tiny white streak on her chest and resembles a small Labrador, sort of. Her mum was a Whippet-cross, her father unknown - I suspect she has some Poodle in her though.
hi torg!
Good morning, tor.
oversight, please
Spangle has a deeper bark than Ata's dog. Is that cause for smug?
I think so
Dogs are great fun and lovely companions.
Ooh, you'll have to go pro so we can see pictures, J.C.
Declres that Haz can be smug for a while - well half an hour.
I thought so.
Yes, they certainly are . . .
oh JC! how adorable!!
Mine is definitely a family member - she thinks she's my child, not a pet. She's right, as it happens . . .
gm mama2 blue...mom
Half an hour of smug and then things revert to normality.
She is, MRP - she has the sweetest little face!
*bracing for the smugstorm*
normality is under-rated!
lol JC
only I can be smug for ever
Spangle is definitely a dog. She even sleeps in a kennel. (Cue horror and severe reduction in smug)
a cold, wet kennel
With spiders and earwigs and cats howling outside.
Wondering whether I ought to balance out all the folks whose animals are children by treating my children as pets... hmmmm...
pooooor Spangle
My goodness talking of cold and wet - it was a raging torrent of hideousness here last night - monsoon and glaes :(
was it ever!
Actually, son would much rather be a pet. He thinks he's a kitten.
I know. The wonder is that the cruelty people have let her stay.
We haven't had gales but it's got so cold again.
Vi as I don't have pets or kids can I include my best potted plant instead?
you want to know what happened to Maddison?
Yes. I have told both the cat and the kids that my houseplants were here first, and they get precedence!
Don't you have any stuffed animals, FM?
Might do but that would be telling
she does
A woman of mystery.
Ata might have seen 2 of them on Monday when she was here
she has pink fluffy rhinoceroses all over her bed
And if they're breeding, who knows how many there may be on her return?
Ata let the stuffed cat (or bear or whatever) out of the bag!
gm mom :-)
ROFL!!!!!
wow ??
Pink fluffy rhinoceroses? That would be fab!
LOL I just spit tea all over the place *sorry*
nice day today sunshine
Have you always had these tendencies, FM? Pink rhinos and spitting tea?
is that like being a spitting cobra?
You've met me Haz so you shouldn't need to ask!
Another keyboard ruined?
good think I handed out handkerchiefs earlier so people can wipe up.
not bad here either,,,in the low 50's
You mean that pink fluffy thing wasn't your purse, but was a travelling pink fluffy rhino?
she carries one round with her? wow, it's worse than I thought
I think she needs an intervention.
Wear it on your head for true eccentricity, FM!
OMG I need to pause to get breath loooooool
one to go.......GR 5/20 ????
Nothing says eccentricity like a pink fluffy rhino on your head.
ok, for those that are interested in maddison. she has gone up to the north coast to recover from her flu (since 10th Feb). This is her 3rd time on antibiotics. I pray she will be home and in school by next week... cause she has missed 3 weeks of school.
gr5/20 - not needed, unnecessary in today's grid, an extra in Lickety's list.
ikdubb there is no gr5/20, its an error onlicketys list
I hope she gets better soon, mrp.
thank you haz
Best wishes for a full recovery soon, mrp. That stinks.
have you tried scramble on facebook? it's timed
thanks FMitch
ikdubb, too.
it's been giving me a headache
dear MrP - we know that as you have been good enough to share that info with the log. I hope Maddie is well agains soon.
thank you vicuna
no, not yet. how about you?
thank you fmitch
Oops, I don't know what I said. But what I meant was ikdubb, did you finish?
yes......last night. I have an acct. found your brother, kim, cait, and you.
Yes, I hope Maddie is well again soon, too, mrp. Must go now. I'm supposed to be going to Cornwall tomorrow, but can hardly get out of bed.
thanks hydra and goodbye!! see you soon :))
Bye, hydra!
hydra, be well soon darling! I am hoping amongst all hope for you
Poor hydra. Remember, Kleenex Balsam tissues.
It is so awful to be sick... especially when you have to provide for your darling family :))
oh yes, balsam tissues are the *best*
They're just about as good as morewords.com. Have I mentioned that site lately?
I will send you my gmail addr...then we can talk in real time.....
*tunes out Haz*
nope, nor paypal
what's the do 5? a clue I mean
LOL vicuna :))
Ah well. There is the admission. Vicuna tunes out. As I've always said, Vicuna and a tune are strangers.
do5 is pl of do4 who accomplishes something
hi sharon :))
*hmmm hmmm hmmm*
sounds good
Give me time to get the ear plugs in.
Hi Mr. Pres
most of the babblers work 'backwards'... from z to a... so good luck
doobeie dobie doooo
oh...was looking in the other "do" direction. Thank you
how you going sharon??
There, see, mama2maddie thinks I sound good! (or wasn't that what you were saying?)
I don't work backwards. I'm special.
I don't either
MrP what time is it with you - should you be asleep or something?
I don't either.
We're all special.
i go both ways
Well, there you have it. Vicuna can't sing a note but she knows the right way to babble.
Hello, again, tragicstud!
fmitch, are you concerned? or are you trying to get rid of me!! LOLOLOLOL!
LOL tragic
:) hello
student having a panic attack
Yuck.
Trying to get rid of you MrP so we can talk about you :)
i brought her to the nurse and returned to my billing (and more importantly you all)
Your priorities do you credit, tragic.
I'd hate to say ...
lol
it is 3am here... I am screwed... and if anyone cares, I am needing help to get to sleep
i offered my billing mrp
Can you add the panic attack help to the billing?
don't say i didn't try
Whenever people hate to say something, they never actually hate saying it enough, do they?
yes i can haz
can and am required to actually
can someone help me with the ho5,16 - can't get it
ho5/16 - sort of equine
*** brings in a herd of sheep to jump the fence at Mr. P's house ****
she said "there doesn't seem to be much else to talk about, the walls are caving in and i can't feel my hands" and so... off to the nurse with her
But mrp, you need to be bored. You'll never be bored when people talk about tissues and morewords and paypal - all worthy things to talk about, but too interesting to send you to sleep.
Think equestrian forwardbyfaith
ho5/16 a characteristic of Mr. Ed...
lol ruru
oh ruru! you are an angel!
(((ruru)))
Hello, ruru. Hello, sheep!
How come ruru gets declared an angel?
HI FM.. good to see you are still around.. ***adjusts halo ***
cos he is gorgeous!!
** er haz... I already have Sainthood ***
If I'd known it was sheep you wanted I could have droned on about the diseases they get and how they have difficulty lambing etc. I'd have had you over in no time and then I could have been declared an angel.
It's all the lovely fleecy lambs gamboling about. They lend an aura of angelickness.
*darn did I say that out loud?*
mrp... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kk1Y4xo 4XJ4
Nobody told me ruru was a saint. Nobody tells me anything. The last I heard, he was leaving babble....
Mr. P only needs to count them... not kiss them...
Lanolin is good for the lips.
We do have fields of lambs at the minute - they are pretty.
aww, i'm so glad i looked for that
Stid anointed me a Saint a month ago..
yum yum mint sauche :))
Well I won't tell you anything either, Haz. ;) Don't know what I've missed - blasted phone, was called away for a little while. Babble, and people will call? :P
urf, I have to go. I need to write a vastly interesting guide to off-road vehicle use in sand dunes
*sauce even
Did she run it by the sainthood committee or was it a unliateral decision?
Share it with mrp to send her to sleep, Ata.
Sounds like FM may have been hitting the sauche all right.
I expect Mrp already knows a lot about it!
Ata - sum it up with 'Try not to, but if you must, go carefully'
Ata - before you go - have you scanned int hat brill cartoon yet?
I think it had to do with getting a particularly difficult word when she needed to go to bed.. but I will take sainthood as I get it...
thanks girls and boys... but I can't sleep. I need a lullabye!
Well, umm, have fun, Ata? *waves farewell*
i sent you one!
did you go to the link?
Still waithing for my white robes to arrive in the mail though
That explains things, ruru. I was once offered a kidney in return for a clue for a word.
nope, sorry! I'll get there after this assignment gets handed in!
ruru, I was at a meeting tonight guess what??
*waiting for Haz to insult me*
Vi - sing MrP a lullabye LOL
Passing MRP some sleepy time tea..laced with catmint....
LOLOL haz
Erm - I posted further down . . . I'll sing you one, MRP. It will bore you enough you should fall asleep.
Just don't let Vicuna sing that lullaby. Nightmare!
what mr p?
(There, was that okay, Vicuna?)
*ahh yes, the world is still as I know and expect it*
(someoen send mrp a video of ppl singing kum-by-yah)
Feels good, doesn't it?
I was voted as secretary for the school parent and citizen crap
Wouldn't want any boats rocked. Cradles maybe, though.
so besides our insomniac...how is everyone else doing?
We could always talk about Pandora and Lucius.
citizen crap?
is that the official title mrp?
well..that alone should put u to sleep mrp
hi carlee :) sorry to be a pain
Oh can we talk about that?
Hello carlee. I'm well.
who said ur a pain?
good to hear it haz
Bows to the great new title for mr. P...
Clue for do5,12 please, anyone?
plural jc
pl JC
do5/12 is a plural for those who accomplish.
you are so succinct fm
Oh, duh . . . thanks! :P
like mr. P is a do5
Talking of those that accomplish - I guess I had better get on.
she is really a do 4.. but acts like two people
She's just scared of making more typos.
Why do I find some really obscure words (probably from playing Literat and Word Racer on Yahoo) and miss such obvious ones??? :P
Must you, FM? Alas.
I was ambushed
*tears self away from chat*
i am now only two months behind on billing!
Erm - make that 'Literati'. My typing's left home.
hurah!
Yay for tragic!
Because you're human, J C and we'd hate you if you found every word straight away.
hi tragic :)
Farewell, dear FM!
hi vicuna :)
lol.. who set you up mr. P?
hi mrp
I could be made to stay a bit longer if you want?
Bye FM. Where's Lori when you need someone's leg grabbed?
aww, mrp you can i met when i was the insomniac and you were during your day
hi ruru! :*
please do FM. .
HAHAHA, Haz - nice to know you don't hate me then. Yet? ;)
Please don't go, I beg you don't go, Lalalallalala.
Huzzah! Turn peer pressure on "high"
*you and i
You might if you played Scrabble or Word Racer with me.
okey dokey then ruru - I am so easily swayed :)
tragic... thank you!
did you watch it?
Yay, FM's back! Now, what shall we talk about?
FM needn't ever claim that she's like Margaret Thatcher. That lady was NOT for turning!
I just can't sleep... I am being cruzified
What have you been doing with all your extra time FM?
Oh I know - can share a silly thing
Collecting pink rhinos
only the fluffy ones, Haz.
IMagine giving up babble time to collect pink fluffy rhinos.
I think I NEED a sex scandel
That will do it mr. p.. just watch any TOm Cruise movie.. that would put anyone to sleep
lol
who doesn't really
Got a message on the phone last week and had to call back - long story short the chap had misdialld and thought I was an escort agency!
my gf isn't on babble right now!
if it weren't for sex scandals, the market wouldn't have a story
HAHAHA!
oooh, i wish i had things to talk about i didn't want her to know!
Ooh, I would've had FUN with that . . .
lol! Did you name him a price?
welll isn't that scandalous?
Does Tom Cruise go to sleep at his own films, do you supppose?
Vi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
he acts like it..
go on tragic!! I am looking into sexiest women of the world
Well, I can ask, can't I?
You could have offerred to charge him in pink fluffy rhinos.
Maybe the pink rhinos would be a good gimmick?
i really can't think of anything :(
MRP - why does your little icon beside your nam indicate you're male, when you're not? At least I think it does - not sure. There is another one in a lighter blue?
it's crazy, when she is online i'm chatty mc chatterson
I really don't want to go where this is leading, though...
Erm - make that 'name.' :P
lol - crossover of posts :)
grey transends gender jc
No, I think pink fluffy rhinos should be kept innocent as can be.
it doesn't JC, it indicates I am neutral
some people are just happy being human...jc
Oh - is that grey?
HAHAHA - I should use that one.
Well use, ruru - that's me.
but I am a female... very much a b**** of a naughty g***!
I would use pink (I wear a lot of pink), except then everyone would think I'm female - not quite! ;)
having met a rhino head on.. fluffy is not a word that comes to mind
Ooh, I'll bet I'm naughtier, MRP - by far! ;)
For a while in my youth our home telephone number was only a couple of digits away from that of a restaurant called "Mama's Big Boy."
Much hilarity ensued.
I like being human, and sexy... cause being grey is sexy
Yes, well - same here!
and a sex scandel is born...
cause you can't have a sex.... therefore, sexy
JC so what gender are you then if I may ask?
Male, FMitch . . .
And gay . . .
Julius Caesar, perhaps.
jc is from the states, and male
Therefore, the grey might suit . . .
cool! !
I am not from the States, MRP.
I'm in Ashford, Kent, UK - remember?
they should have a rainbow person then
Ah OK thanks JC
indeed jc... go for the happiness
ruru! how is my rainbow boy!??
Rainbow boy? Another one?
Yes, ruru - they should.
i'm queer jc
love ya stud
Oh yes, tragicstud?
ruru, he is awesome and masculine
:)
who?
ruru... my darling
sleep deprivation is making mr. p ... giddy..
Oh, well I'm very campy and a bit effeminate - so you might you like me, MRP! :P
tragic is gorgeous
There would be no mistaking it, if you were to observe me for a minute . . .
Ooh, is he now?
aw, shucks mrp...
she jc ;)
tragic, you are amazing!
She? I am confused . . .
you're not so bad yourself there lady!... if it weren't for your happy life, my girlfriend and the ocean mrp...
I am giddy... and naughty!!
i'm a she jc
lol
tragidstud is female? Ohhh . . .
Sorry! MRP made you sound male there, saying you were 'masculine,' I just assumed that was the case!
now I AM confused...
HAHAHA, ruru - I think I was born confused! :P
ruru !!!
LOL how funny tragicstud is female Mrp as we all know is a woman. JC is male and confusion seems to reign :)
Ball of confusion . . . that's what the world is today. Hey, hey!
And I'm not really a monkey! Hi briefly, all. Anyone have the ho5/12 for me?
Are no not, MonkeyGames? Oh, the shock!!!
wait, you're not a monkey?!
Erm - 'are you not?' :P
Not... as such...
I need to learn to type, apparenlty . . .
kind of an equine looking person monkey
No, that's the 5/16.
like Mrgaret Thatcher
Yes, and MRP told someone I'm in the States, after just hours ago having a conversation about my area (Ashford, Kent). :P
margaret thatcher that is..
Confusion reigns in Babble land . . .
It can be kind of hard keeping everyone's details straight. Ummm, as it were.
J.C... I am female, with two children and a husband> However, I am open to all sexy beings and if you watch nip/tuck... you would like it!
And of course I'm really a dachshund! LOL
Mr. P you should have joined the hot tub party last night...that would have gotten you tired..
LOL bethjt!!
oh man!! did I miss the hottub!!???
So... like Mrs. Thatcher is not the same as the equine clue?
far out! I wanna be in the hottub!!
alright. does the ae actually exist?
yep.. lotsa booze and clothes were flying
Yes. Missoelled eagle nest.
Yes, MRP - I've already concluded that you're a married female with children. ;)
tragic, you are gorgeous looking
MissPelled, even!
Miss Pelled was my kindergarten teacher
It was fun ..
Oh dear!
good afternoon all..interesting grid..interesting chat
i'm gonna have to go check out my pics mrp :)
if I could come back as a desireable... you would be it.... the eyes, the skin, the purity. and I am not gay
Hi Orange!
OK, howzabout the oa word? What's that like?
JC...you are just right
Are you claiming not to be drop-dead gorgeous, Mr.P? It won't fly you know.
It is the Wilfred Brimley word
**blushing and a twee speechless**
It's another word for a type of film, tragicstud.
Slang term - think Western.
oa = like an old cowboy movie? that's the one i have
What's a Wilfred Brimley?
zo
OK, will look! Thanks!
I'm 'just right, MRP - what do you mean?
he does the quaker oats commercials
How did I type 'zo' and enter it? Blimey - my fingers are out of control now! :P Mike may enjoy that, when he gets home . . .
hence he is an oa 5
Ah. Got it, thanks all!
tragic, you are so gorgeous... what do I do without my girlfriends. as long as we have hot-tubs!!! Naughty girls
We don't have Quaker oats here.
(sounds like the Bad Barbies club)
I'm a Quaker.
Still wondering about that ho5/16...
And I think jmncrick and another who's escaping me at the moment are, too.
ho 5 someone who has an equine look to them
and kwakerbkul, but he never chats.
SO just throw some oats at us, and you're good to go.
I am not shy. so I will put up a pic for us all.
You keep saying that but inless two mean that I have it and it's a 5/16!
But thanks anyway...
that is the ho 5/`16
I see that I did accidentally enter that in the chat. SOOOO sorry! I mean the 12. Sigh.
which ho 5 do you need?
ruru is your profile picture a photo or a painting?
it is a picture
I'll put myself in the PB for that...
I need the ho5/12.
ho 5/12 is a plural
I bought 2 very similar of a wheaten and a labrador this year is it by Toby Young
are you all supportive of models who are amazing with all super hot standards
Ah, looking...
the only model I know is Heidi Klum
ho5 guys who farm a lot
or johns for prostitutes
lol
Odd question, MRP? Why - are you a model? ;)
or both
Thanks. And with that I must rest my eyes. Stupid infection. 6 left for later.
ugh - bbs...there's an intake at my school...have to show my face...
I am not making any money! They are all beautiful
Mr. P models in scanty clothes for lickety..
JC, who said I was a model??
I guess I need to get to work now.. good luck everyone..
Nobody did, MRP - I merely wondered if that's why you asked that question, if we're all supportive of them? See - told you I'm confused! ;)
night ruru! (sexiness)
Looking at your photos on Flickr though (I'm logged in there right now), I would say you could be one! Ouch - how did you break your arm like that? :(
I hope it's all healing or healed well?
Awww bless - what a cute little Sheltie!!! :)
hi all!
Lovely cat, too . . .
mr. ps hould'nt you be asleep?
good morning
oh my! I am home to the eurovision greece godess she wants to come to greece
I love your wedding photo, MRP - Sydney Harbour with the Opera House in the background.
Fantastic looking woman
You are home to her? What do you mean, MRP?
I am going to be with 13 episodes... bye all!!
<-- Confused, yet again!
<-----you;re not alone
Nice to know, Temple Owl! ;)
what do you need to know?
jc , my daughter is at the beach house...
hi owl!!! :)))
Erm, don't worry about it MRP - I'm accustomed to being in a state of confusion! ;)
has anyone used the q in a word not beginning with a q?
No, that's the only usage, TO.
hi haz
Hello there!
cannot get the ae word
top row Y ?
ae4 - just like the scary ee4, but change first letter
yo4/8 - If it began with j, it would be the start of the sort of trousers worn for horse-riding.
ty Haz
You're welcome.
Thank you for that excellent clue, Haz - but what a strange word!
ty. that sneaky little h was just lurking
Yes . . .
You're welcome - this is babble, strange words abound some days.
owl, i ABSOLUTELY need to be asleep
So I'm noticing . . .
what about the lone E in the 4th row?
yes. yes you do, mr. p. go to bed.
Then go to bed, MRP . . . that might help? ;)
sorry.. still not seeing it. don't those pants have a P ?
eu4/5 comes from there
OR stay up until tomorrow's bedtime. can you ot sleep at all now?
Yes - omit the P, OrangeCat.
Yes, but it's just the beginning of the j word for pants.
phantom: gryere. it's kunctime and i've been hungry since 9 AM
thanks
You're welcome, harpjane.
Poor TO. When's lunch?
Then eat something, Temple Owl . . .
Or should I say, what's for lunch?
well i think it should be walk first, my exercise has suffered beacuse of the snow. then lunch. bet i'll set a new walk/run reocrd! :)
lunch is yogurt. as always *sigh*
I'm sure you will. And then you'll try to set a new babble speed record. My time was 2 minutes and 15 seconds. See if you can beat that. (All written in falsehood font)
alon with gruyere i see doyen. and heretic
That doesn't sound like a meal?
I hope you're not calling Dorens a heretic.
ok, Maddison is at the beachouse! I want to apologise for all of this. I want to be a happy girl, but a fine feature with a rich supermodel... I am the beautiful
LOL @haz i godidn't even finish yesterday. 16 to go and i had no time last night
Hmmm, MRP? No - I'm going to stop trying to work out what you mean, as I'm already more confused that ever! ;)
mrp, you're starting to ramble and be incoherent - because you're tired. Switch off the computer and go to bed, please!
giselle is the top
so i will leave and hope to return later. goodbye all! mr P GO TO SLEEP
Yes - take Haz's advice MRP, please! ;)
Bye TO. EAT SOMETHING MORE THAN YOGHURT
ok i think the water ice stand opened already, i can get a water ice and a pretzel, too LOL
<---------Spangle says that the Australian lady needs to go to bed. She is a wise dog.
You know how to live dangerously, don't you, TO?
typical philly lunch. if you need something too amuse, google"philadelphia flower show" and see something the city is famous for. this year's theme is bela italia. *poof*
HAHAHA, yes - good girl, Spangle! My doggy barks in agreement. ;)
Bye TO! You'll not get the Italians making do with yoghurt for lunch. See you again!
haz, surely yogHurt is more substantail, haivng more letters :P
Pretzel - mmm, that sounds not half bad!
Yoghurt isn't a match for Spaghetti Bolognese. Count and see. And as for Alphabetti Spaghetti....
no. they eat all they want then accept that they become rotund in old age. *sigh* it's in my genes
and in my jeans too! LOL bye=ee
Byee!
btw haz did you see the babblemeet pix?
Yes, I did. It was nice to see what you look like, at last!
Hi Babble friends!
LOL who is shorter?!!LOL
I think we'd be able to look each other in the eye nicely.
er, ah..not me i am a supermodel LOL seain is just very short
Hello beachboggle.
Time I was heading off as well. Bye for now!
mrp finally went to sleep i see,,,
Yes, tragicstud - think she desperately needed to! ;)
Either she wasn't making sense, or I'm just confused as all get out!

hi red hi peri hi cheryl
I think we have cleared the room TO LOL!!
hmm appears so.....:D
yo4,8??? can't get it.
foward use the letters in the gridunder the y
Think of pants worn when horseback riding, forwardbyfaith - if the first letter was a j instead of a y. Omit the p . . .
It's a very strange word - one I'd never seen before.
go up. go left. go up.
ty temple owl!
time to go. later, all! happy babbling!
Bye TO see you soon
*Bounds in exuding sunshine and rainbows, magically without rain*
Yay!
Hi Tor =]
Heya Amb ..
I killed it ..
hi all :)
hello - 3 left. Simply can't fathom the last he6/21. Suspect third letter is r but what then?
I tried to post, but babble ate my chat. It does that.
Heya nan
just finished the first run through -- need more java before finding the last 34
uuunnnnnniiiiiiii!!
he 6 21 = he** (not over the**) is where it's **
hi all
Dr. Ata! How have you, Hobbit, Sily and Hubby been today?
9 to go, but may have to quit and figure out why my printer is not installing
it#s husband's b'day today, but I haven't seen him yet! hobbit is still smug about making my car seat soaking wet
nrkii - over the hill just doesn't work. More help needed .........
Ohhhooo! Happy Merry (Un)Birthday to hubby! And Hobbit has learned well from her smug mother.
alleyn, not his but ***s + consume food
she has. she's had a great day, we discovered a 3 foot long ish dead fish on the beach, which she dragged off very smugly
Oh my. That is a prize, even for her!
*wanders back into the grid* afternoon babblers
it was! she's so funny, when she *finds* something, she drags it off with such a smug little expression on her face. She's so proud of herself
So the third letter is........tried everything!
R
have to run
see you all later
I would love to play with Hobbit, I think - she sounds a lovely dog.
she is. I know I'm biased, but she really is. She's a very gentle dog
Be well, nrkii!
Cockers are so nice, in my experiences.
some of them can be a bit snappy and grumpy, but most are just fluffballs of fun
back to find 17 words
hi peri
missing an O. Have oa, odx3, oh, or, oy
The sun came out over here today...it's so nice, I decided to skip class and babble instead of being productive and writing my lab and presentation, :)
2 x or
I have or4/5
so I should think! Sunshine and niceness is much better for the soul than writing stuff up
will look for the other
Thanks. Weird word. Just left with a re5/16. Havr the green one and the tumble drier one. Any help appreciated. Need to go cook
re make green LOL
re change something's colour
Sunshine is grand. Perhaps I should get a wee leash and take the hammy for a walk?
Hi there folks! I'm going to need a little help with my last 6 words. How is everyone?
could you imagine the cuteness?!
He would just wriggle out...collapsible bones and all. Maybe we could make a little bag for him, and he could hang off Hobbit and go for walks with her?
not seeing the other or word
re5/16, for example. The one between the all night flight and to repeat... can anyone point me in the right direction?
Ata - usual clue please. Third letter is?
maybe we could get a hamster ball that could be attached on a lead to Hobbit's collar, and he could trundle along beside her
Peri, I have the natural ***** of things and the same wiord with the last two letters dropped and another inserted.
there isn't one between all night flight and to repeat
d
Hmmm, lemme recheck that...
sheesh, did not have the natural *****, thought I had typed it in, thanks MG
ATA! Did you just give a letter? Not of the first two??
thirsty, brb
well, alleyn asked nicely!
ATA! Did you just give a letter? Not of the first two??
According to Lickety's there is... after teh flight and before repeat. A 5. Hmmm....
Hey all...have you found that there is a gr word that is not accepted but is part of Lickety?
I mean before flight after repeat.
yes, gr5.20 isn't in the grid
Yes, the gr word is a phantom entry. No such thing really.
Still not there with this last word. Need the fourth letter pls............starving here
ok...seems weird...
28 left
rehoy
alleyn - re +another word for perish
can't give you 4 letters out of 5!!
OK, how about the he6/7 after the shrubbery trimmers?
redey
comes off the 4 before them
Add a letter and type it into the right box, Alloy...
need help with E words, pls. have eax2, ee, erx2, and eyx2
It happens because Lickety uses a slightly newer version of enable, so the word counts to his generator but not Dr God's. At least, that used to be true. I assume it still is.
sorry but now you know i'm desperate
I was afraid of that. I need that too but was too embarrassed to ask. OK, help me out with that one and I'll track the other two down myself...
he 6-7: those who pay attention
AH! Thank you so much. I feel like a dunce now.

yo4.8 yo & you wear jo**purs when you ride horses
ahhhhhhhhhhhhh I can breath again now! Thank you Lynxxx! I've been looking for that one on and off all day!
thanks lynxxx
Heyas kids ..
hi Tor
evening torgone
Evening . . . ed5,16 and ed6,27 please, anyone?
Hello JC :)
Hello, Liz! :)
Oscar was too cute as a baby - melted me! ;)
Even looked innocent, HAHAHA!
ed5.16 Heath L***** won an Oscar
I know! Lol. I have that one framed :) Butter wouldn't melt
Thank you, Lynxxx - but that doesn't seem to work?
worked for me :) Thanks again Lynxxx
Oh it did, too - but how? Oh, yes - I see now!
OK - I'm hopeless, it's official.
Gave me a few H words too :) And yet I am still only two thirds done :)
I commented on it, Liz. ;)
You just shouldn't try to 'see' the words sometimes
oh I must go and see
HAHA yes - you might just be right there, lynxxx!
Erm, well shhh if you do. ;)
Tell me thats not true!!!!!
I don't believe this - I just saw two pitifully obvious words that I haven't seen for looking yet!!!
Where are my reading glasses . . .
JC if that is the honest truth then I can tell you, you have a really beautiful dog :))
Thank you, LIz - I certainly think so!
When I get around to it, I will make an album for her.
If slightly better behaved than mine lol
I would love to see her :)
Erm, well - yes, but then what dog isn't??? ;) HAHAHA!
OK I asked for that :P
I had to laugh at the photo of you entering Oscar in the Agility event - whatever he's meant to be doing there, I'm sure it isn't what he's actually doing?
What sort of dog JC?
As someone commented, yes - cliff-leaping should've been an event, he'd ace that.
At least he's not doing his favourite trick in agility - grab the jump pole and leg it into the distance!
Mongrel, lynxxx - I adopted her from Battersea Animal's Home, a large shelter in south London. All they knew is her mum was a Whippet cross - father unknown. We suspect she's part poodle, what else is anyone's guess!
I tell you what though JC, Oscar is a monster and a lunatic but he is so gentle with the kids that I can forgive him most things
Awww, bless him - yes, Labradors usually have lovely temperaments and are very protective of their families as well, especially any children!
Cute, would keep you fit. Know all about Battersea, we get lots of UK progs out here (of the mother country!)
I wonder how she ended up in there JC.
A friend of mine had a beautiful big Golden Lab - he was very pale blonde. He used to have a habit of gathering sticks as he was walked, and would wind up with as many twigs and small logs in his mouth as he could fit - he'd set them down when he came upon another, then pick them all up again plus the new find, HAHAHA! It was so funny . . .
Oscar has a penchant for carrying trees around. One day he couldn't find a fallen one so he pulled a fence post up and carried that instead - the farmer was sooooo unimpressed with me!
perhaps he was building a nest - ?
ROFL
why is DOEY not a word lol? Oscar has doey eyes
She was given up along with all her littermates, Liz. Someone whose dog had had an accidental litter they couldn't find homes for - irresponsible with the mother, I guess. I'm a big advocate of spaying and neutering. There are so many lovely dogs being put down all the time for lack of homes - the need is so great. That's why I could never buy a purebred puppy.
Lynxxx? Do you have the Q's yet?
Yes Liz - I thought that. 'Doey' should be a word, as in 'doe-eyed.' Not according to this puzzle, though . . . I'll have to try it next time I play Literati or Word Racer, if the opportunity presents.
qu4.9 is a heifer, then its plural
I see where you are coming from there. I just had a bad time with the springer we fostered. He savaged one of my beloved cats and had a real go at my old golden cocker. It kind of put me off getting a rescue for permanent but thats definitely what I will think about if and when the time comes.
Hmmm . . . 'hodge' isn't a word?
Oh! Slaps head! Lynxx I always always forget the plurals! DOH
Oh no, Liz - that's terrible! Both my dogs (the lovely little girl I had before my present one) and my cat are all rescues from the same shelter. So you see, there are lots of lovely little dogs to be had there . . .
Or in any shelter, of course.
Your poor cat - was he OK?
I know you're right. It was just a bad situation and I shouldn't let it put me off.
Oh for the love of dogs - two more painfully obvious words I never saw before for looking! :P Right, that's it - think I need a vacation!
Yes, thankfully Ted (aka Mr Bear lol) was ok after some antibiotics and cuddles. He was a bit of a bruiser himself to be honest, but at the same time he was my pride and joy.
Awww, yes - well it's awful when any animal is injured! I always feel so sorry for them! I cried when I ran over a toad with my riding mower, when we first moved into this place - god, did that upset me! :(
Oh my god! I'd have had a fit! Poor you, poor toad :(
Right, I'm off to think up some more ideas for fundraising...have fun everyone. Lynxx, thanks for the clues :) and JC - can't wait to see the photos :)
I did, Liz - it was awful. Two of its legs were cut off, the poor thing! I was in tears!!! I had no choice but to back over him and finish him off for his own good. I felt horrible - I was a mess for a while after that! I had to have Mike help me - I could not go back out there and clean it up.
You'd have to add me, LIz - my albums are private, for obvious reasons. I have yet to make one for her, though.
Oh ok - I have no idea how to do that but I'll have a go if you dont min me seeing :)
bye Liz
Well, I have a lot of work to do yet - I'm in the process of uploading all our photos from the recent trip - you know.
Bye all :)
But getting time to see to any of it's been a trick!
Cheerio, Liz . . .
I'm off too JC, Stewart, my grey, keeps hanging around, time for morning walk. Byee
Oohh . . . only 23 left!
OK lynxxx - take care!
And thanks again . . .
can someone help me with th re6/21 & 8/45?
re6/21 to make warm again
and the 8 just add two letters
thank you :)
yw
hi all (end-o-lunch; thought I'd sneak in and say, "Howdy")
hi pink
Hi K2
Thanks k21 .. Didn't see the 8 ..
yw
I got a few anyway...back to work...ciao!
does anyone have a clue for the gr 5/20?
gr #5 is like animal with extra letter
thats the only one on board, lickety has a ghost
ohh...okay, thanks. i had that one. i've never seen that happen before!
np
How many words today please?
98
thanks cheryl
I have 16 left
me too lol
tiny, did you ever find the gr 5/20? I'm looking too.
There is no gr5/20. It's a mistake on lickety's list.
TY Vic
Can't have you pulling your hair out.
i think it's supposed to be grody for anyone who wants it
You know I do that at just the slightest annoyance
Totally, dude. Gag me with a spoon.
Afternoon again everyone, I am back from gym...and trying to get the last 40... :( its getting hard
oh no it looks like chat is not living...
It's dying?
hi jc
life support
oook JV and cherly are here, spluttering to life.
I think most people have finished.
Hi, chertyq63 . . .
hi
JV?
JC, I make a lot of typos.
I've 23 words left to go . . .
Same here, redturtlehead - I'm infamous for them.
at least I am not the only one with sp problems today
I have 39 but I am not using the list.
12 here
hello all, taking a small break from reading....
hello again JC -- feeling better?
Hi Stid!
down to 34, I think I am ready for the list.
gotta run, time for school to be out, dd wants a ride home
I may have to resort to it too. apparently there is an issue with a gr5 that does not exist.
careful stidmama, its got at least one phantom or ghost on it
Hello again, stidmama - yes thanks, getting there!
ah yes, it's a gr 5/20, modern slang for "disgusting"
only one cherly, easily found and easily ignored.
Erm - I tried that gr5,20 you're suggesting, stidmama - and it didn't work? Unless it's something other than what I'm assuming you mean . . .
love it when the words I am missing are the roots of the longer ones I have!
alot of those this time
It doesnt exist JC.
HAHAHA yes - I've done that. Even worse, stidmama - I've found some really obscure words I've learnt through playing word games on Yahoo, yet missed blindingly obvious ones! :P
Is anyone having problems with the second gr5. I got the clue from earlier. Am I just blind or is it a problem with the website?
gr 5/20 is the one that is in lickety, but enable is too old to catch it.
hello beth. the second gr 5 exists, but not as one that babble recognizes.
I only have one gr word - gr4,7.
Now, i have 34.
the only other gr is 5/14 a sort of grain I think
go red go!
Oh yes - I'm blind! I have that grain one, stidmama . . .
go JC go!
much quicker grid today than yesterday (for which I am grateful -- much still to do before I leave in a couple hours)
I am missing the grain and wow cant see it. Clearly not Quinoa...
Grrrr . . . gr5,20? (No, I know it's not 'grrrr', HAHA!)
LOL JC!
It starts with 'gr' red. No, not quinoa, nor spelt, nor kamut, etc.
too bad it wasnt. I always get thrown off when oohs or aahs is in the grid!
well, since it's not a word that counts, would be willing to share the ghostly gr 5/20
Think porridge, red . . .
that did it JC< thanks!
I like "psst"
I'm confused, stidmama - how can a word in the grid not count?
we don't call porridge gr 5 in the states JC!
You're very welcome, red! :) Glad I could help . . .
or "pfft"
I know, stidmama - it's a 'meal' there.
because the "dictionary" that Dr G uses doesn't include a lot of words in common use (and does include many that are quite questionable)
hello tor!
And a variety of foreign words.
Yes, I've been thinking that, stidmama . . .
TOrgone, Hello.
Indeed, red . . .
Hi guys
I am certain the RE 6/27 is furrin... any help?
what is furrin?
A late night flight
Furrin? Yes - what's that?
aha! shipworm! *happy mama look*
thanks tor!
down to five...
TYVM tor, nice clue.
Yes - I had that one already.
Now have the worm, but am only down to 30, probably do the list soon.
to red go!
um. GO red go! LOL
yvw

microwave
oh, found the re 6...
Oh gosh, my normal phantom is here for real.
AHA!! down to ONE! (thanks tor)
LOL red!
Oh my god - now I'm finding obvious ones I couldn't see earlier, for looking!
the bucking bronco show.
YES!!!! FIREWORDS!!!!
Ooh - 18 left!
I may actually finish this one . . .
Yay stid!
my last was the ur 5/14 in case anyone is wondering.
can stay five minutes to clue.
go JC go! did you get the list?
congrats Stid, you are amazingly quick.
I need that stid
Stuck on gr5,20 - what was that about a phantom?
It is a word in the puzzle, isn't it?
There is no gr5/20!
tor, its like the strees of La **** In texas, but with a ur instead.
the gr 5/20 doesn't count. it's "groat"
oh fiddle. *runs to PB* the 5/20 is "grody" *sigh*
Uh oh ..
I entered it - it's the 5,14.
will eat my lunch in this location, shall I? LOL
Thanks red
Stiddy!!!!! Oh gosh. We should bake a pie.
Does that mean we'll all have one word missing?
should not allow figners to type when my brain is distracted by whiny dog.
Awww - what sort of dog?
not here, JC. you can enter it, but it won't make a difference either way
It means Lickety's list has one extra.
No JC, in lickety you will but not on the grid.
german "dumb as a post" shepherd...
Oh, I see . . . thanks, torgone.
Really? They're usually such intelligent dogs!
I have the dumb dog, but I do like him.
actually, he's a lovely fellow, but with my inability to exericise much he is often just bored to tears. A three-year old with ADD has about as much patience. perfectly lovely and normal for his breed, but ... he really wishes I had more energy.
two minutes left... clue, anyone?
back yard Stid? with a catapult...
4th column E please, stid?
backyard, yes. fence, no.
Yes, I want the same as FUwuay
hi babblers. catching a few minutes babble before the commute...
victorian novel, fuquay. jane ey**
No catapult then...
Not the right E stid.
oh no! hold on...
no that's 3rd column. I want the lonely E at the bottom
um. the unit of currency in germany and france
Oh duh, thanks.
phone...
ty, stid! for some reason I never see that as a word..
Stuck on he6,21 . . .
how about U words. I have the ones related to a desire or drive
JC, what you use to keep your room warm
clue at 3 55 pm for one fuquay...
No, it's an 'her' word - 6,21. Found the other ages ago.
a oerson with many sheep JC?
No, that's 6,24 - I have that.
This is 6.21 I'm after - starting with 'her.'
Erm - '6,21.'
dont think I have it.
Oh god - I seem to be all messed up somehow?
Oh no - don't mind me.
Yes - I still heed 'he6,21' - with an r.
he 6.21: not somewhere else + Casey ** the Bat
OH THANK YOU, fuq!!! *MWAH!*
fireworks!!!
You still here JC LOL
<gr> yvw
Evening everyone :) (again!)
Yes, Liz, HAHAHA - down to 15 now!
YAY tiny!
I sent you a message on Flickr - did you get it?
wtg, tiny!
Erm, Liz - just don't look too closely at the second to last photo in my stream, please! :P
hello Liz!
As if the comments won't clue you in, if you don't notice!
how about that last U, anyone?
past tense ur 5?
*curious about scandalous photo of JC's*
got the present and past desire word, plus the one clued at 3:55, looking for the other one
HAHAHA - erm, well stidmama, it's not *that* scandalous!
I just got it now JC - haven't had chance to reply though :)
Stid!!!! Hello!
oh, got it.
*grins at JC* you want ur 4/6 fuquay?
No worries, Liz . . .
ur 4/6: ur + a small nintendo game, handheld.
got it, thanks, stid
ah, lovely slow chog.
Well, I should read for another hour before I leave for class.
Laughing insanely at JC! Whatever the photo was, apparently it falls outside my SafeSearch filter that we have on for the kids!!!!! My mind is boggling!!!!
Back tomorrow (when I shall have ALL DAY at home and no errands to run or clasds to attend).
hi im new
Hey Stid, say hi to your Mum & dad from me :))
thanks for the lifeline, friends!
HAHAHAHAHA - that's only because I have it set to 'moderate' instead of 'safe', Liz.
hello binker! and adieu! *poof*
Shall I set it to 'safe' for you - or can you change your settings/
(thanks liz, I will)
Hi, new binker5 . . .
I'm new too - to this. I'm old, otherwise. Nearly 50!
LOL I can change my settings at the drop of a hat - actually I just did!!!! Still laughing! :P
Oh fabulous - so you've seen it then? :P
It was hard to miss
It's at the very end of my photostream - it's one of the two snaps taken in the hotel stairway.
Now behave!!!! :P
Ooh, why *THANK YOU*, Liz!!! :) You're good for my ego, you are! HAHAHA!
Along with some of the comments lol
HAHAHA, yes - from my nutty friends!
Right I still have 9 words left and I'm quitting right now before Oscar mugs me completely - something tells me he needs to go out (or could it be that he's just chasing his tail madly and barking loudly just be for the fun of it!)
can someone tell me what "e" the er4,6 starts from?
Does he ever sit still?
Liz - have a question?
Whatever happened to his head? :(
Not often JC, not often :)
Were those tumours I saw on it?
Oh did you see that picture? Wasn't it awful! He had two cists the size of golf balls that got infected. He had to have them removed. He had 32 metal staples. You can still see the scar even now
The leftmost one
Oh, cysts - they looked awful, yes! :(
Yes, I noticed the scar is still visible . . .
What did he do to the ligament in his hind leg?
they were horrible and they went right down to his skull bones. As for the leg - he had his cruciate ligament replaced after a particularly mad leap off a cliff and severed it.
Stuck on ho4,7 - the second to last one, I think?
Starting with 'hor' . . .
Oh no - the poor dog! :( He looks so miserable . . .
Ouch!!! God - he must've caused himself some agony?!
He wasn't a happy bunny but more because he had to be kept in than anything else. He was on sedatives and a dap diffuser and all sorts.
Ahhh . . . wondered how he was so 'sedate!'
He didn't give the impression of being in pain to be honest. He was great at the vets - let them mall him around without any fuss. He's a bit of a star like that :)
Awww - sound like he's very friendly and easygoing?
back
Oh he is. He's an angel (if you ignoreall the bad stuff lol)! Wouldn't be without him for the world :) Anyhow I could talk about him all night but I really have to go let him out before disaster strikes!!!
Welcome back, cherty . . .
see you all soon :)
HAHAHA yes - get! I'm out of here soon as I'm finished!
But I am stuck - maddening!
jc, ho + *'*ll come back now, ** hear?
Oh!!! Thank you SO much, nrkii - *MWAH!*
np JC... :)
would someone be able to give the gr5/20 clue
I have 8 left, but no time to get them
Oh no - the od words are terrible! :(
Can't find them . . .
Oh - got it! Wasn't thinking of the American misspelling of it! :P
I cant find gr 5/20 nana, sorry
The first od4.5 I am still missing, though . . .
I have that one!
thanks nrkii,,,its ok
od+ what are you going to **t for dinner?
The gr5,20 - think porridge.
first od 4 = o = when they put a body in a coffin, hopefully it's a ***d one
That didn't work, fuq?
Says it's not found in the dictionary . . .
there is an extra word on lickety that's not here
Hmmm?
JC, did you try my clue?
the gr 5/20 isn't in the puzzle
and I still don't see gr5/20
Oh thank you, nrkii - got it! :)
is that the gr 5/20? I was thinking "grody"...
me either
grody would be nice, but not accepted
ohhhh, gr5/20 not there... thank goodness!
okay this is ridiculous - can't get one of the ey6 words. I have the one who sees - is the other one a weird word or am I just dumb?
98 words on babble, 99 on lickety
of course, if I had only noticed that I had no missing G's, I could have saved myself 5 minutes
Ooh - only 9 left now!
trying to firgure this game out
change order of last two letters of one who sees
forward, think of a Bronte heroine
thanks - could have sworn i tried that earlier - guess not.
so are u saying that there are only 98 words in this grid
yes, only 98
still need two more E from the middle column, second row
Both re5,16 words, please?
Oh no - think I have one.
and the gr 5/20 on the clue list is not suppose to be there,,
thank you ever so much
they sound very similar JC
Yes - I have one but can't find the other!
one is to color again, and the other is to remove moisture again
re5/16,, re,,,and not live but die,,,on word for color change
No, but thanks - I meant the first two re5,16 words?
I think that's what I gave you... but I'm missing two R words
Yes, have that one nana - thanks. It's the two before that, I'm stuck on one of those.
how many r 5/16 are there?
3
Ugh - I wish I could e-mail you a screenshot of that section of my word list, nrkii! :P
ooh, re 5/16, like a re 4/5
so, make unwet again, change color again, and like a re 4/5
OHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you!!!
np... I'm going to list now... will never get ready for dinner on time if I don't
first 3 missing words were plurals... UGH
2 left
hey nrkii, how is your shoulder doing?
improving red, thanks!
Ooh - only 5 left! Yes - I'll actually finish this!!!
someone clue the 8 please?
Glad to hear that. Dang I still have 22 left. I Broke for dinner here.
8 is like a microwave oven, if you were to describe what function it serves with leftovers
An item that makes things hot again.
cool, thanks!
DONE
Hmmm . . . te6,21 please, anyone?
yay, nrkii!!!
red, your clue was so much simpler and better than mine, LOL
Congrats, nrkii . . .
te + make happen again
congratulatiosn Nkrii, and the te is a shipworm.
that re 6 27 messed me up, because it wasn't an AGAIN word, it was a COLOR word
Ooh thank you, nrkii - got it! :)
okay, I have to run and put on my girly clothes so I look decent for dinner
maybe I'll curl my hair like nellie...
have fun babbling folks -- I'm off to Disneyworld tomorrow, so see ya next week!
Nrkii, are you coming to FLorida or Cali?
I need a ty4,6 - before the rubber item.
Florida, for a long weekend
You can come see me in FL...I am 22 miles from Disney...

Have fun, nrkii . . .
Alas though I am working fri sat sun and Monday. DOnt come to the Emergency...

Purely by accident - or luck! :P
But just remember its been a little chilly here.

nm - found it.
howdy
howDy
what's up BR?
Just got here .. . finished some research about it
about what?
whether truth matters anymore
of course it does
to a lot of people, truth is a distraction that impedes progress
any specific thing bring this up now?
concepts like cognitive dissonance and cognitive polyphasia are part of it
oh I have been going after politicians again
and you are contemplating these because.....
aaaahhhhhh - depressing indeed
because so many politicians lie and get re-elected again and again
re6,27 please?
re6 - scarlet peeper
how are your new subjects doing, kj?
referring to anyone in particular... or just the whole profession in general?
"my subjects" LOLOL - I wish!
ty kje - i was stuck on that one forever
they are very good... enthusiastic, bright, and know when to put up with my ramblings - LOL
yw fbf
how neat
did you call me kje?
"enthusiastic, bright, and know when to put up with my ramblings"
I wish I could keep them all month, but I get a new resident on Monday... hopefully he will be as good and easy to get along with as my current
ha! weed... you don't put up with my ramblings!!! you give me sass!
*blinks innocently* meeeeee? sass??? never!
I would be forced to flunk you!
do you give your subjects time to sleep?
*snigger snigger*
they are neat, BR... and yes, they are under the new work-duty-hours regulations by the ACGME
means they are limited to 80 hours a week, must have 1 day off evey 7 days, and one full weekend off each month
I suspect there is little rambling and much to impart, kj
I think I saw a few glazed eyes this morning - LOL
i like your profile notes today BR. or appreciate might be the better word.
thanks
need the first two re516's please - my last two!
re5 - to get unwet again
re5 - to tint cloth again... or maybe hair
how was hubby's birthday, weed?
ty - I think my brain was just fried after staring at the grid for so long!
yw fbf
mellow! he was bummed he couldn't get the day off. i said "poor baby, go to work like the rest of us!"
aaaawwww - poor guy... I have taken my birthday off every year for the past 11 years : )
told my congressmen that I thought their priorities were skewed when more money is allocated for Johne's disease than Crohn's disease
hellooooooo
stinker
hello, AsGreen
asg!!!
Cat9x? I logged in again biefly because I just read your profile and wanted to give you a big high-five!!! :) Excellent - you just be vegan like myself, and I'm also a big supporter of animal rights & welfare, promoting shelter adoption and spaying & neutering.
surprise!
what made you choose crohn's BR?
Erm - 'you must be,' that should've said.
saw your ski pics just now, asg.... very nice
thx kj - how r ya?
very good... busy, asg
I know several and try to help with info and funding
ah BR - good for you
I put up a few pics the other night - including updates on Ringo too
gotta go put daniel to bed, bbl
bye feather
oh, must see ringo! i did see oliver this afternoon when someone commented on a pic - too cute... you are such the PTA mom
kisses for daniel!
I am kje, I am lol
have you started the grid, asg?
so, I'm 49 in and out...you?
close... wanna race?
not sure I remember how to babble though - haha
seriously! you haven't been here in forever!
This is strange - I completed the puzzle earlier, had the fireworks and everything. Now I'm logged back in , it's telling me I have 1 word left to find - and I have no idea which one?
no - can't - gotta get dinner on the table in a few - but S is away tonight, so I can finish up then
refresh jc
hi all
oh good! S is away... we can pick up our affair... wanna scrabble ; )
hello, Dorens
hi dorens
hi Dorens! Yes kje, I do!
better day today, dorens?
hey A... was at Chris Robinson's house a week or two ago
k, I'll make a drink or two and meet you later - LOL
actually k,, you shouldn't ask. yesterday was!!! today... i am just glad to be home and babbling finally
still w/his Dad dorens? Where does Chris live?
lol kje, good thinking
Just did, kje - it's still telling me that!
hang in there dorens! some days are like that when you are doing important work... have a drink!
he lives in Northern Mass... we were skiiing in New Hampshire with my kids and stopped there for lunch on the way home
how many left kje?
I am done asg
do the tile stats show which letter is missing ?
fun! I thought he was in Mass.... wife and kids?
kje, I thought you wanted to race! sheesh - and you were done? lol... typical
this man showed up at my house (unbidden, mind you), shoveled my entire driveway, and just left without asking for so much as a cup of coffee. yup.. wife and three girls, nice kids, too
I'm not sure, BabbleRabble - I'm new and not sure how to read these things yet. It looks like an F word, 4/5? Not sure which though - that, it doesn't tell me!
wow dorens... how nice!
how nice for you Dorens! And nice for Chris too... I'm happy for him
this man being Chris's dad, who is too nice for words.. well, too nice for me. but i'll take hiim
are you in babble or lickety, jc?
brb - going to go look at ringo
What do you mean, kje? I guess Babble - I completed the puzzle earlier, and had the fireworks! So I don't have my word list anymore, as I've logged out since.
ok gang, I gotta go - lol Dorens, I'm glad that he's nice to you!! I'll be back after bedtime (9pm EST)
ringo is cute, A
there are no f words in this grid
Now I've logged back in, to find it's telling me I have one word left to find - how that can be, I have no idea?!
great pic there, bab
do you have the tile stats below the grid, J.C.?
bbl *poof
quite a picture all right
oh wow, asg... CUTE!
Yes, BabbleRabble - but I'm not sure what this means. They're all dark grey (almost black) except for one which is white - saying 4/5 beside the R in the second column from left, second tile up from the bottom.
okay progress
Then in 'Word Stats' it has one white space, with a green square to the left of it with a '6' in it - the white space says '11/12' - no idea what this means?
How many points do you have jc?
Hmmm . . . it's saying '1143 pts', torgone.
reenter the word for overnight flight
is it me or is this a difficult grid?
re 6 -- color plus what you see wiht
good job tor
Thank you - had that already, but just did and it's now congratulating me with fireworks AGAIN!
Yes, BabbleRabble - but I'd entered that word already! Strange, this is . . .
You're lucky .. You got fireworks twice in one day!
I was doing stats and tor was doing it right
HAHAHA, yes torgone!
The 11/12 meant you had 11 of the 12 possible 6 letter words
I think it was all a ploy, J.C.
just kidding
Could be, BabbleRabble - could be! :P
fireworks twice? Lucky you!!!
Oh I see, torgone - thank you!
hi folks..scarily small grid here...
The new Babble server has some minor hiccups once in a while
hi krista... small and not as easy as I'd like it to be
The 4/5 by the R meant you had 4 of the 5 words starting from that tile
hi krista! just nudged you in scrabble
hello, Krista, don't blink or you will be finished
I didn't find this one near as challenging as yesterday's
Where do you play Scrabble online, kje?
I play Yahoo's version of it, called 'Literati'. And their Word Racer game, too . . .
on FB, JC
I was out of town for a day, then couldn't access it last night..they were improving the site "just for us!" will do my turn shortly :)
ok. then it's me. not a surprise. that kind of day. but yesterday's didn't give me a problem
i doubt that, BR, but thanks for your confidence
no excuses krista! ; )
nope, these small ones scare me, Dorens, lol
the power of positive thinking
BR is channeling norman vincent peale
the little engine that could was a great motivator
I think I can I think I can I think I can...
I think I can I think I can
:P to kje...you just can't wait to beat me again...
i use that example all the time.. i think i can, i think i can!!!
LOL krista... never know : )
Fireworks! Yay.
those who argue for their limitations get to keep them...
EOOHOO RED!!!
well, done, redT
forget who said that one
oops - WOOHOO
Yay RED!! way to go!
yay red!
determine death by rectal temp today red?
“When we argue for our limitations, we get to keep them.â€
Evelyn Waugh
who said it, BR?
ok. past half way went to lickety and am down to 35 now.. much better
oops..ty
"Whether you think you can, or you think you can't, you're right."
henry ford
"my therapist sucks"
You play Scrabble on Facebook, kje? Have you ever tried it on Yahoo, where it's called 'Literati'?
way too much philosophy in here today... too much nerdiness - LOl
Tor channeling Tony Robbins...lol TS..
And on that little turd of wisdom, I'm off till later ..bbl
I like the scrabble game, JC - have played lierati years ago... but like this one now... are you on FB?
Tony Robbins, Henry Ford...same diff :/
bye BGH!
be well, tor
No work today. Now BBL.
bye red

my tile stats says there are 3 g's.. .lickety says four. who's right?

lickety is wrong
tile stats
cheesy phantom?

gruyere
yes .. and now i want onion soup :)
good thanks, cause i couldn't find that fourth g (no Bab, it's full... says 3/3)

* Why wouldn't the skeleton jump off the cliff?
ok --- why?
* Because it had no guts.
hehehe - that was kinda funny
thanks..think i'll keep it for a while..
ouch
krisa it reminds me of my daughter's wall... she worked for Coach and had the samples of all these colors in suede... stretched on rectangles and squares, so she took them home and arranged them on the wall, and they were all those colors.
pfft BR
oh, cool job, Dorens..I will think of purses when I see my icon now
oooo - very cool dorens!

Hi someone distracted me
sure you would have monkeyed it!
i had an AWFUL session with my therapist tonight. outside of that BR, it was a reasonable day. and you?
edo of near Arezzo AR, Italy
TS I miss seeing you
well here i am lady :)
my son spent a week in arezzo while in high school and loved it
i was actually going to ask after you...i've been rather regular, and haven't been seeing you lately
yah. Silly studys
good day for me, eliot. hope you can put the session aside
am trying... glad to hear it was a good day for you :)
is this the same grid as yesterday?
wasn't it 98?
lol
hi btw
hello, Ping
88 i think, wasn't it?
I think it was 94
93
sorry you had such a bad time ts.
it amazes me when i'm monkeying and monkeying and then it ends up being a word i know
hi gang
95 words 1317 03 Mar
that always makes me laugh. hi ping
thanks dorens.
HI Ping you finished feeding the rug rats?
i wonder if my clients ever feel like this about me...
scary thought
don't you think you'd know??
hi Ping, how are you? kje..still here?
just finished feeding
i'm supposed to doing dishes
my therapists knew to cool it a bit when my nostrils started flairing
well, if they felt EXACTLY like this i'd know...
hi dorens, fern, krista, stud, wordsrock, br
LOL Ping. If you leave them in the sink long enough, they will do themselves.
dish doing is entirely overrated :)
we got a pup recently - the rug rats are angels in comparison
pfft Get the dog to clean the plates
ewww Word
there is always the other side of the dish
good thinking, fern
i am the dish Nazi now..I put away all but four of everything..was spending all of my time washing dishes (got rid of my dishwasher, long story)
even if it eats the plates, it would be one less thing for me to do
sounds radical, heroic, krista
my dishwasher comes on tuesdays
LOL BR
lol...it felt radical...what? I can't use 50 glasses each day?!
kje, if u are lurking...I did my turn
do you play lexulous with kje?
scrabble, but i prefer lexulous..we haven't played for ages..want to?

History has had younger royalty

hmm, so anakin is 18 she's 25-ish...
oops..that word is not on the grid..same word, Welki
Miz I just spoke to nerd boy (he of all things star wars) and he said between 14 - 16
ah, i see .. thanks, krista
think of Valley Girls...gr*** to the max!
yes, history has had younger monarchs, but they weren't running making laws, they had regents
yes BR
It's like a grad student dating a freshman in college
yw

Krista did u get the clue for the gr 5,20 word???
Yep. I just rang him and said Hun I have a Star Wars question. I want the $100 Encyclopaedia Star Wars please.
any suggestions when you know a word you are entering is correct, and yet the box is saying its "not in dictionary?"
can't make that gr*** to the max work
ya same
I'm still trying to figure it out cwest
yes, i put it in the chog at 7:45, cwest..
Shi, add a grain: sow your ***s
gr+ Garfield's dog friend (nemesis)
i got that gr
swear at Enable, and move on, traj. there are several words that aren't in the dictionary
hi jes
am not spelling garfield's dog right, I guess...
Hi, jes!!!!! How goes it?
hahaha thanks jdrago :)
mmm
well, i've always seen garfield's dog spelled with an ie, so that's obviously not working.
hi pam, it goes pretty well, how're you?
use the sometimes vowel for garfields dog - hi all
yeah, it's *** to joy
gr 5/20: gr + curtain *** + *es or no
I thought it was dy
I am well, jes. I have officially adopted Pearl! She is doing better, and will need her entriopion surgery again (first by a vet in FL before she came up north)
have a dream release it now into the universe afar. slowly it will float up high where your dream becomes a star
oh, or i'm not paying attention well :)
coolies. glad she's got a permanent home :)
I am using the sometimes vowel, but not correctly, I guess
wait...my clue has a mistake...make that gr+ curtain r** + *es or no
I think that is the word in Lickety's list but not in the dictionary
"Odie" is how you spell Garfield's dog friend
thanks, jes!
gr 5/14 -- add a grain: sow your ***s
I am typing what Krista clued and it is not liking it
the word is on Lickety's but not on the grid
that's not entering for me, gr+ **e to joy +sometimes vowel
Grody
lickety isn't right!?!
there are 3 g words if you have 3 the tile is grey
don't understand, BR....
repeating...that word is on Lickety's, but the grid will not take it...weird, I know
the world isn't right!!
you know what a grain is? wheat rye rice
lmao- can i tell you that it's been this way all day long. and i've looked for it all day long and clued it all day long and known the whole time that it wasn't a real word. fascinating
there is no gr 5/20
ok, got the one you clued BR...
Who is on first, I swear :)
Clue for the Y word from the top of the second column?
the list has 99 words the grid has 98 the extra is a gr 5.20
hiye
if you have 3 g words the g's are done
well that makes sense then
ah, ty babble
thanks Babble!
Well, I need the ge 5/16..help please...then I can put the g's behind me
*faints*

So everyone - meet Janet, aka 'itsallminenowtoo.'
Hi Ho, Hi Ho, it's off to List she goes...
She joined a few minutes ago!
wow this is the hardest one ive done in forever, its ben like 20 mins and ive got 7 words ha
Hello everyone!
Yes, posh - that was a tough puzzle!
welcome, janet
Are you two nurses in the UK by any chance?
There she is - meet Janet (itsallminenowtoo) everyone! :)
Are who nurses?
hi JC...hello itsall! welcome aboard...you, too, shall be assimilated (resistance is futile)
ello janet
hi everyone, Jac pini
go posh go!
Hi Sandy.
Hi again, Pini - how's you?!
haha! Thank you, I think.
me B fyne! JC...feelin' better?
JC - I thought you might be nurses since you are both up together at 3am.
hi sandi and of course, hi JC
hi janet, it will waste a lot of your time but its fun -some others here are even addicted
Erm, getting there bit by bit I think, Pini - thank you for asking and glad to know you're doing well! :)
HI again Sandy
Sandy, of course, is way above being addicted...
(well, we'll see if I'm still alive in about 3 weeks - when the move is over!) LOL
* addicted * Is that a real word????
It is, Pink.
hi herin didn't see you there
go figure...guess I was slow on that take, too!
Addicted huh . . . So I can look forward to a 12-step program at some point?!? ;)
pini "addicted" is more a condition than a word!
Probably itsallmine.
12-step to your pocketbook to go pro!!!!
are you sure, sandy? ;)
LOL, Pink.
personally...i dont suffer from it...but i suspect that maybe Jac, Herin and maybe you pini all do.
Pink - I assume 'pocketbook' is what we in UK call a 'purse', which is what you in US call a 'handbag'?
ROFL...what makes you think that??? * batting eyes *
what is addiction?? It means ADMITTING you have a problem and im not admitting Nothing
LOL I only play because I want to , not because I HAVE to!
Sandy - those who accuse may well be the most in need of help. ROFLOL.
all of those, jac! :)
what ever you hold your euros in! :)
hehehe
Herin - double negative there, babe. If you're not admitting nothing, then you must be admitting to something.
are we having another grammar check tonigh??? LOL
oh snap
YUP, Pink.
:D
* gads, if there's going to be a test...I'm toast! *
Excatlhy Jac
Just dropped in for a second, now its back to cleaning, cooking, feeding the chooks etc -see you all later
*exactly. LOL!
Now tork propa, you lot!
chook?
HAHAHA, Jacula - no, no nurses here. Janet's an accountant and I'm a funny man.
pini, in Australia chooks lay eggs.
Chicken, Pink.
ohhhhhhh, interesting...
bye all bbl when there is a new puzzle
See you later, Sandy.
learn something everyday!
not often you hear them called chooks were im from though
Sandy they don''t they lay Cackleberries
It's only 9 pm here.
If they lay Cadbury eggs...send me some!!!!!
LOL, Herin. Iove that term. It's totally daft but very descriptive. Hens do tend to cackle when they lay, especially if it's a big egg and it hurts.
Pini if they weren't so pricey Id send you some
itsall, you must be in central US?
yep!
yes Jac
we have them here, herin...I'll have to get my own, I guess
Madam White Cat just walked over Mr Black cat then looked down her nose at him as she sat on her ''throne'' he protested she hissed
YAh Pini. I love the peppermint Cream eggs
the cadbury eggs that is...not the chooks that lay them! LOL
brb - Koda seems to think he should have my attention...
I heard a term that amused me on TV the other night. An Irish man, just returned to the emerald isle, was saying he'd had 5 wives and his brother, who hadn't seen him for 20 years, said, 'FIVE wives? I bet there's no hair growing on YOUR knees!'
I'd not heard that expression before and it absolutely tickled me.
...ew.
Good evening to my fellow babblers!How is everyone?
...back..."someone" forgot to give him his dinner! LOL
By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! YAY!
Carmel Creme for me, herin!! :)
Sorry posh, didn't realise you had delicate sensibilities.
I thought the expression funny, anyway.
Hi Min.
dont like Carmel ones too sweet. Hi Min
i dont i just try to be funny sometimes :D
I'm trying to get sleepy after going to bed at 10.30pm last night and sleeping for almost 12 hours.
I guess we're all done since I see no clues in the chog
herin...eating the whole thing is a sugar rush to last about a week!!!!
Min - Herin's still plugging away, I think.
yes
I am still going but its ok
phantom: teacher
i plan on staying up untill maybe 2 am, but its probably a bad idea
I'm not done!!!! 31 more to go!!!
Pini i tend not to eat too much sweet food sends me silly
Wish I could stay up 'til 2 am! Used to always do that.
20 for me
Min - what time is it where you are?
well i have school tommorrow so im gonna get busted lol
I've cut back stubstantially myself, herin...1 egg would probably give me a rush for an entier month (if not more)
yah
I haven't had a krispy kreme donut in a year and a half
Posh - as a teacher or a pupil?
Right now it is 10:10 p.m. Should be going to bed now
a student unfortunately
The less sugar yo eat, the more you appreciate the natural sugars in fruit.
28
Posh - probably in less trouble being a student than if you were a teacher.
true jac
(to the sugar and the role at school)
ur5/14?
Min - I remember the days when I went to bed at 10.15pm because of a 6am start. Glad those days are over for me.
true, but i had a substitute once who just drank a mug of tea and fell asleep and he got off with it lol
ur + old capital of japan
ur5.14 sounds like a command to do something again.
I have that schedule, jac...why didn't you tell me you were the one that gave it to me!!! ;)
Sorry Pink. *laughing socks off.*
I don't even know the capital of Japan now! Tokoyo?
( was thinkint the same thing, min )
Tokyo, Min.
* eyes jac wickedly * Meany! :)
*titters nervously*
got it!!!
fortunately for you, jac, you're too far away for me to throttle you...
Posh - you, as a student, sent someone in to substitute for you?
...and technology is not advanced enough for me to reach through the screen yet!!!!!
re6/21?
PHEW Pink! *sighs with relief whilst trying to remember moves from self defence class.*
re + warm
thanks pini
yw doxy
doxy, hi! If you made a meal yesterday and had some left over, you might re6/21 it the next day.
* giggle * jac...lucky you! :)
Hi there Doxy
yes, my class that i was a student in was assigned a substitute lol
hi all. just lurking about
If you did do that, then you'd be a re8/45.
er5?
fish?
brrrr
er5 wear away
er5 - to wear away, especially soil
oh, slap me!
Hello doxy1lover! How are you? Welcome to the grid!
thx une
Posh - Oh, I see. You mean a temp teeacher came in?
yw :-)
yeppers
Pink - consider yourself slapped with a very large frozen cod.
am I allowed to say OWWWWWWWWWWW?
I am pleased to announce that I am cold for once. It seems the fire danger has passed
><((((º>`·.¸¸.·´¯`·.¸.·´¯` ·...¸><((((º>¸. ·´¯`·.¸. , . .·´¯`·.. ><((((º>`·.¸¸.·´¯`·.¸.·´¯` ·...¸><((((º>
YEAH, herin!!!
Now you can say 'OW!' pink. :-D
oohhh, very cool, jac!!
oh, funny...real funny!!!
ROFL
Herin - that's very good news.
Yeah is right. Its freezing here. 4 blankets and track suit weather. I am happy. there is puddles outside
woot woot!!!
about time, eh?
YES
24
it was getting warmer here, almost sandal weather like 5 days ago, but then mother nature decided to throw a monkey wrench into that plan and send a freaking snowstorm
Jacula - now what are YOU doing up at this ungodly hour in this country, that IS the question?! ;)
That's the best news I've heard for a while, Herin. So glad the fires are gone but stilll totally shocked that many were started by arsonists.
it means that the firefighters can go home to their families if they are interstate. It means people can now grieve and rebuild
JC...key prints in your forehead yet? :)
They have not gone gone just contained and really well too. The rain is helping.
HAHAHA, not yet Pini . . .
Might improve my appearance though, never know?
(J)ust (C)hecking!!!!
JC - I said earlier. I went to bed at 10.30pm last night and slep for virtually 12 hours. I'm at 'the time of life' when sleep patterns go to pot and become very unpredictable.:(
WHOA! Did I just say I have 20?Now I have eight left!
...wouldn't know, JC...no idea what you look like!
I am happy to complain about freezing
(J)esus (C)hrist, Pini - you're even funnier than me! :P
for now, I'll take your word for it! LOL
Jac is really a wind up doll and never really sleeps
Erm, well - 'dorky' would describe me quite well, Pini! ;) Yes - ask Janet, she knows!
I may revise your nick to: JustChuck!!! LOL
hi
Erm, no - my surname isn't 'Chuck' or 'Charles'! :P
hi cub
Herin - I suppose the oil in the eucalyptus trees is very flammable and you haven't had rain coming down like stair rods or even gently for hours like we get in UK?
Like my real name is Pini Kula! NOT!!!! ROFL
Fireworks
Pini - are you good at anagrams?
Herin - that's a fib! I do sleep.
maybe, jc...why?
wtg doxy!
Well, because . . .
night all
Well done, Doxy.
I can't stick around (haven't had dinner & pills yet), but wanted to say hey, peeps
. . . waiting . . . patiently . . . but not forever!!!! LOL
TYGER hugs

Hi all!
Must admit you have a great first name! LOL
can I get some help with the re 6/21 and 8/45 pls
Hi MIN, i've been lurking, watching the puppies.
I was reading in the paper earlier about how we're alll going to get the fastest broadband ever that's going to run our homes. It'll deal with the air, the contents of the fridge, dispense with the need to make shopping lists, open and close our doors, windows and curtains. Erm... what happens if it goes wrong? Can we override it?
re + warm
and the person that does it!
Love it, Jac!!!! LOL
phan leftovers...again
warm again, and one who warms again
thanks so much!
Hey, lbd! didn't see you earlier
Yes, Jacula - I wouldn't want it for that very reason!
and Une snuck in too! Hiya Une!
Will it tell us when 'marital relations' are due, too?
i'm down to five... and am not making any progress. :(
anyone have the ca7?
I hate automatic-only car windows - if that fails, you can't open or close them, as you need to!
hi judy, i've been in an out, watching puppies and cluing when needed
ca7 brought the food to the party
Hi phandmd! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
Hi Unea
pt of the ca5
Hi lbd.
brb - checking on dinner...

latlaters
Congratulations herinfernallady on fireworks!Hooray
ok, back from church for last 6
Bye herinfernallady!I will see you tomorrow in the log
Hello cher.
Oh sorry, Pini - I missed one of your comments here. Thank you for the compliment on my name - yes, I quite like it, my parents have good taste! ;)
Hello cherlyq63!How are you doing and welcome back
hey, jac and min :-) Was looking at the pups -- they've gotten SO BIG!
doing better
Have they stopped whining so much now, Une?
JC...ck email
yep, and Momma was barking at something--sounded sooo loud after hearing little puppy whimpers! LOL
Speaking of pets, I put Margaret Minipig the Hairy Guineapig back into the hutch with her sisters today, 4 months after her hysterectomy.
aawww, was she happy to be back with her sibs?
Hope she won't be too cold up there, after spending all that time in the spare bedroom.
They seem happy, Une.
excellent!
HAHAHA, no wonder you like my first name, Pini - it's the same as yours, with one extra letter on the end! ;)
I've noticed that her womb removal op seems to have left her with urinary incontinence, though. I had to trim her fur earlier and will need to keep an eye on her rear end.
Must be a "special" thing, eh, JC?
I am done!I have fireworks! My last word was re5/16
can have that effect on humans as well! lOL
wtg min
yay, min!
Can stay to help out with clues if anyone needs clues
Une - having kids can have that effect on humans.:((
yep!!
whooooo hoooooo MIN!!!!
he5/14?
Well done, Min.
yeah min, got 4 left now
go cherly go
he + 3/4 of Bambi
That he 5/14 word is he 6/24 minus a vowel Pinikula.
Pink - think of the he6.24 (the one who takes notice) and remove a vowel.
Go cherlyq63 go!
where do these words come from?????
(thx)
Jacula - spay incontinence isn't uncommon in dogs right after the surgery, either - but it will sometimes be OK once they're healed.
yw
Fortunately, my dog didn't have that trouble after she was done . . .
Pink - it's a Yiddish word for Jewish school(s).
Or my cat - they're both females.
Hmm, well my youngest child is 22 this month.
I was surprised to see a guinea pig could be spayed - they're so small! I used to have some as a kid.
qu5?
plural pini
I had a guinea pig when my daus were still at home, but he died...lived a full life though ;)
oh, duh....thx for the fish lbd! :)
and it's time for me to say good night and head for my pillows. see you all tomorrow.
qu 5/20 is plural of the qu4/9 word before it Pinukula
JC - it's a huge risk giving a guinea pig any kind of operation but we had no choice with Margaret Minipig. She had a cyst the size of a golfball on each of her ovaries. For more on that, click on her on my flickrpics in my profile.
night lbd...thx for the help!
Goodbye lbdawger! I will see you tomorrow in the log!
thx min ;)
'Night, lbd.
ho5/12? (another fishlet?)
good night all!
Yes, I read that on your Flickr page, Jacula - I looked at your photos there, as I was logged into the site in my own account at the time.
night itsall...come back again, y'hear?
ho5/12 word is plural of the garden tool user Pinikula
Pink - ho5.12 - the ones who garden with the ho* tool.
thanks!
That's Janet, Pini . . . just so you know! ;)
he5,18?
When she goes pro, she can put all that in her profile.
yepperooni!! got it, JC
I will be pro myself, in a few more days - just sorting out a PayPal account . . .
Bye itsallminenowtoo! I'll see you tomorrow in the log
thx for the fishlet, jac...
lol
perhaps . . .
Janet is on Flickr, too . . .
<-- will be happy when finally finished with this "I've never heard of these words before" grid!
With the same username she has here.
OH no, wait . . .
It's not the same!
Grrr, I'm too tired - and need bed.
The he5/18 word is h plus the ed 4/7 word ewaugh07
http://www.flickr.com/people/pffffffff ffter
I think that's her page?
he5/18 is the shrubby fence in your garden.
without the spit though, right, JC?
So how many more words do you have left Pinikula?
ty min
yw
I keep a towel handy . .
I will wait to go to bed until you are finished Pinikula.
10 to go, herin!
and min!
Try that again using tinyurl JC
Go Pinikula go!
is there a different clue for he6,24? its my last one
9
2 phantom words for me today were ahead&teacher.
help. down to the last one and it eludes me. ho 5/12
one who listens and one who gathers sheep
he6/24 word is he4/6+a medical tv drama ewaugh07.
8
ewaugh - he6/24 sounds like the plural of the titles of news stories or reports.
ho 5/12: plural of the garden too user salmoncreston
fireworksss!!!! all my last words were so ridiculous.. i'm embarrassed.. thanks for the help!! : )
salmo - ho word is those who use the garden tool.
wtg ew!!!
Well done ewaugh.
re6/27? yet another fish???
Congratulations ewaugh07 on your fireworks!Hooray
yeah ewaugh
thanks Minveryork. I need a fish... I cant believe I missed that. done. fireworks
An re 6/27 is word used to describe an all night flight
Pink - re6.27 = colour + seeing orb.
thanks everyone! i'll stick around to help clue.. if i can.. haha
Congrats salmoncreston1 on your fireworks! Hooray!
you mean a late night flight! Got it...thx!!!
7
re5/16 x 2 after do it again?
I think a late night fight might describe it, Pink - either tired and drunk in starting it or the result of being punched or poked in the seeing orb. LOL
hehehehe
Pink - to take the water out of again, and to recolour.
danke x 2
5
You're welcome, Pink.
gooo pinikula!!!
last 2 are he 6
6 x he6.

An re 4/6 is abbreviation for government re*ulations
gads, yet another fish
thank you!
yep
4
yw
do5/12? (please don't say it's another fish!)
he6/21 is h plus ea6/21 word. Another is plura of he5
do5,12 is a plural
he6/21 - something that warms you or your house up, he6/24 - Jewish schools, he6.30 - one who makes shrubby fences, he6.24 - one who listens and takes note of warnings, he6.24 - one who keeps groups of animalls, he6.21 - 'in this place' + 'I'll see you * 1 o'clock'.
i tried that!!!! thx
do5.12 = those who get on with, act straight away.
ty
3
gr5/14
a farm animal with an r..?
that was lame... how bout gr + honey bunches of ***s
haha
Old silver coin from the Middle Ages in UK, Pink. Like the farm animal that eats everything but with an 'r'.
That gr 5/14 word is Billy Gr***'s Gruff Pinikula.
Good clue, Min.
2
1
Thanks Jacula!
last word
te6?
That te 6/21 word is te plus the re 4/5 word Pinikula

My monkeys are fighting

yes
~*~ fireworks ~*~
thanks for all the help!!!
Congratulations Pinikula on fireworks! Good for you!
wtg pini!!
Now I can go to bed! Goodnight to my fellow babbers!
Well done, Pink.
'Night Min, Dormez bien. x
Now I can go to bed!Goodnight to my fellow babblers!
You just said that, Min. LOL
Well, I assume there's no one lurking in need of clues?
I lurked just long enough to get fireworks! :)
It was a fairly easy grid for seasoned Babblers and word puzzlers.
LOL, rbud. Well done.
Really not too bad, I thought. MoreWords and I are getting to be good friends.
Weren't you in here as Rosebud before?
Morewords and A2Z are good helpers when needs must.
one left, could I get another clue for the he 6 jewish schools
Well, no, but iI have that name in my profile. I've just found this place in the last couple of months.
Cher - he + the antlered animal with the letters moved around + pluralling consonant. Or, if you're a gardener, the start of the word for ivy but with a different last letter.
Oh, okay. Welcome to the world of madness that is Babble, bud.
Oh, is that what he6 are? I hadn't looked it up. I'm learning so many new words. And thanks, Jac.
Fireworks, no clues!
Way to go. Stac!
Any help before I'm off?
Hello everyone -- I'm too tired to try to finish here
oh no, i already had that one
still need another one,
sorry if I missed anything...phone ;)
he 6/21
take the re6 (to re warm) and swap the first 2 cons!
great clue, pini! I just emailed you again and got yours
Hi jilli.
will go check, jilli ;)
(and thank you)
no hurry, pini
he6/21 = in this place + .meet you ** 1pm by the clock'.
oh, but you've made me curious, jilli! :)
*jacq tries not to be nosey re the Pink/Jilli convo.*
yeah, fireworks
ty so much for clues
Gosh, jilli...tell him to look at other MFA programs in the states...not all are like the one he referenced ;)
wtg cherly
jac, it's about my grandson who is trying to get a Masters in Creative Writing
yay cherlyq
We're still laughing about those tit scarves, jilli. I think we'ree going to have to make some to wear to the church hall monthly quiz.
<-- BM for CRWR MFA at local Uni
Oh LOL, jac!!!
My dau sent me a pic of those yesterday, jac...they were so funny!!!
Thanks for explaining, jilli. Sounds like my daughter trying to find a place that will take her for her practical in biology towards her getting her necessaries to becoming a radiographer.
Hey, congrats, cherlyq!
pini, I forwarded your email to him
that'll work, jilli
YAY cherlyq!!!
hey can someone explain todays icon -I understand 'race cars' but what is (Autumn moon)?
I don't go to the quiz, only take part in their paper quizzes. I don't go to the quiz for real because I cannot stand my Mum's next-door neighbour who is a know-it-all, back seat driver, husband scolder, mistress of the bitchy remark etc.
autumn moon is the babbler that suggested it, sandy
Autumn Moon is the Babbler who suggested the icon theme, sandy
However, I've been told that the vicar's team always wins...
^5 jilli! :)
LOL oK, we all know how dopey I am!! Thanks Jilli
snap, pini!
I think the tit scraves may be in order to divert the vicar's team from victory.
*scarves
what happens if it drives them from the room???
did you notice all the wearers were Japanese? Not that it's relevant.
Hey there everyone! I got a late start today.
hi peachy!
it's ok, sandy, we all tend to share the same brain cell every now and then!
hi ga
May I please have a clue for re5-12? Thanks
Hi to you jilli.
And pini.
re5/12 = verb (respond to something)
Thanks much, Pini.
gap - re5.12 is what you might do if I insult/punch or shock you. You will do SOMETHING! You will re + what thespians do.
brb
Jilli - The Japs aten't known for their enormous ti**, as far as I know. LOL
Thanks Jacula.
*aren't known, I meant.
y/w gap.
*thinking I'd like to see the scarves* Can I knit one for me? lol
don't really need to knit, rbud...could use old stockings...just stuff and put nipples on them...then drape around neck like winter scarf... LOL
ROTFL! What a mental picture!
what are these scarves? and where can we see them?
I can try and find it and forward it on, if you like...
why is it taking so long to accept the words?
* shrug * not sure, christine
I want to see the scarves too...
http://tinyurl.com/df6qv7 re the tit scarves, I think.
doesn't work, jac...
yahoo login page? Darn.
that's what I got, too, rbud
are they in the chog here? I can hunt them up, I have an hour to kill, lol
Try this for the tit scarves http://tinyurl.com/cfwlxz
it's a pic, rbud...not in chog...but discussed in chog
THAT's IT!!!!
LOL. You got it.
too funny, jac!!!
i about fell outta my chair at work!
it was the tatoos that got me!!! LOL
Don't thank me, thank jilli. She sent it to me.
ROTFL!! Yes, complete with tattoos! Too cute!
amazing how fast things go around...
understand the stuffed stocking now, rbud?
gr20..clue please
gr5/20 is a mistake
I can do better than stuffed stockings, I'll bet. ;)
Anyway, as I was saying, we need to knit some of those and go to the church quiz to stop the vicar's team winning every bloody week.
I mean...it's not part of the 98 count words
That should do it, Jac!
what is "church quiz"?
ty pini
yw
he general knowledge quiz held in our church hall every fortnight (2 weeks), Pink.
ahhhhhh
I got it from an old Gt Dane breeder friend -- don't know where she got it
Hi Babble friends! Funny, I got the email with the scarves the other day... what a hoot!
cant get those scarve things up damn it
are you getting the yahoo login, sandy? if so, scroll back for another url to try
God - am I still on here? Are YOU still here, Jacula?!
I did that the first try then it goes to tinyurl home page
Jilli - if I make the scarves and brave my Mum's neighbour I want to break commandment 6 for every time I see/hear, I promise to take photos or a video.
HAHAHA - checked the computer and realised I was stil logged in. :P
that is with the second address i will scroll back to check tho
wb JC...nice nap???
Incidentally, I feel quite disurbed just checking the commandments now to find that one is no. 6 rather than no.1.
Erm, yes - until I got up, needing more medicine.
key prints in forehead yet?
Well, I hate to admit it but I can't get the very first word....ae4-6 please. Thanks
Rooks' nest, gapeach . . .
think breathy, ga
or what JC said
best get to studying, jac!
sounds like eagle's lair but with a different spelling i think
Got it...thanks much.
Yes, sandyloo . . .
You're welcome, much! ;)
eagle's nest, different spelling.
have lots of work to do but am thinking ahead to 'wine o'clock' lol I hate housework
Ooh, I just found you on flickr, Pini . . .
cute term "wine o'clock"!
uh oh...
Pink - I went to Church school and have studied enough. I'd just forgotten over the years.So, I see that the heads of church at that time, who interpretted the commandments, made sure they'd be heard.
for me it is 5pm
You have an add . . .
gotcha, jac!
okey dokey, jc...will check it out...
brb
pini, we also have 'beer o'clock' here in Aus and once again it varies from individual to individual
Hubby calls it "beer-thirty.) :p
If there is a God, in the sense that I understand it, he would not have put the commandments in that order. There again, I always thought we were just like tiny ants in a big bell jar in a lab. If I'm right about that, then there is no God, just people from elsewhere in the universe, experimenting with us. And our lives are just seconds in theirs.
winoe-o-clock and beer-thirty. LOL.
What about gin?
COOL!!! thx JC! :)
I used to love my Tanqeray, yum. Way back when.
HAHAHA - now, Pini . . .
Don't look *too* closely, at the second to last photo in my photostream . . .
here it's anything after 5:00pm except on weekends when it's noon! ;)
vodka-o'clock here
like that's going to stop me now, JC! LOL
The one of me in the hotel stairwell . . .
I mean at 5 pm, not now
Oh, of course not! HAHAHA!
You would've found it anyway, I'm sure.
What? No faith???
Faith?
I'm brain-dead at this point -- library day -- new computer system to study for imminent change, plus computer system crash late in the day
that I'd find it on my own?
poor jilli!
Of course I knew you'd find it on your own . . .
Pink - I do have faith, but not in the 'God' handed down in recent times.
so jac, what's admonishment #6? Spare me having to look it up, please
(I concur, jac)...but the faith reference was to JC in that I'd ultimately find his "last picture"!
jilli - thou shalt not kill.
Second to last, Pini . . .
On the second page of the 'stream'.
That's on the internet on a site for kids and not looked up in my Bible, btw.
ah, thanks, jac. Tough one.
JC!
Jilli - surely that should come first before all the 'thou should not have any God before me' etc., stuff?
Yes, Pini?
I refrain from saying any more! LOL
No wonder everyone is fighting and religion has caused more wars than anything else!
well, I guess God wantd to set up his/her credentials first.
Erm - OK?! :P
ROFL
Yes, Pini - I'm a naughty one! As many here would know, if the realised it's not (J)esus (C)hrist behind this ID.
But the setting up of the credentials, whatever religion you are, surely sets up the warcry for all eternity?
Any from here, that is . . .
we're just evolved chimps and it's in the nature of beasts to fight
so, I, um...er...noticed ROFL
I don't believe in religion
'If they realised,' that is - excuse my typing!
That's true, jilli.
oh I understood...remember, I'm fluent in typonese
Good - you'll need to be.
but why is it men that start wars and not women? Or will that change in the future given the booze-fuelled young women of today?
re8 please
J.C. I wish you were pro so I could see who you are and your flickr pix
That's straight men, Jacula - you don't see us poofters doing that too often! ;)
testosterone poisoning
re8 - one who makes yesterday's meal warm again.
I will be soon, jillibus - once I sort out a PayPal account in a few days.
ty Jac
oh good, JC (may I leave out the periods?)
There, jillibus - check your Flickr Mail. Happy now? ;)
You poofters, if you are one, J.C., are far more bitchy than any woman ever is.
Of course you may, jilibus . . .
But you make great friend for women.
I am one, Jacula - but how can you say we're all bitchy, any more than all women are?
But you are far more coarse than us.
I don't think I'm bitchy at all . . .
And yes - I'm fairly sure by the age of 49 and many same-sex relationships, that I am one! ;)
J.C. I know a lot of gay men - and the 'female' siders of very bitchy. The more male orientated are total gentlemen and make we women sigh and say, 'What a waste!'
Coarse? Hmmm . . . naughty, yes. I'll admit that!
Oh some can be, certainly . . .
^5 jac!!!! No kidding!!!!!
May I please have clues for ur5-14 and yo4-8? Thanks
u + repeat
Also, gay couples, mostly, but not always, seem to take a different stance re being faithful to that of 'straght' couples. Going off somewhere to to whatever, seems to be okay for gay couples. I don't understand that, being a Taurean and jealous.
yo = sounds like the star wars character (but use 2 cons)
ur5/14 = a command to do it again.
Hmmm . . . ur5,14 = ur + song, 'The Streets Of ______.' (Think Texas).
crap...my foot went to sleep!!!
Or what Jacula just said . . .
LOL, Pink. You got cramp and you ned salt. Eat a bag of crisps.
no, not cramped...just sleeping!!!!
Hmmm . . . well that's not OK for us, Jacula. Neither for manyh of our friends. Some do that though, sure - and so do some straight couples!
(tied my shoelace too tight)
Nice pix, JC -- and you dance up a storm!
Ugh - 'many'. My typing is suffering badly now!
<-- jealous of the storm dancing!!!!
Thank you, jilibus - but shhh, please.
I love my gay friends, but I still can't and don't think I ever will, understand their take on relationships.
jac, you don't have to
Well, I don't think mine is strange at all - it's probably what that of most straight people is. When you're in one, you're committed - or should be. Or else, what's the point? Be single . . .
I know I don't, jilli. But, when I go there at weekends, they confuddle me.
I know and like many gay couples, ditto straight ones.
Thanks pini and Jacula.
J.C. I'm glad you said that. I was hoping to hear that from my friends who've been together for 15 years and 'married' in the 1st year (2nd ones to do it) when it was allowed.
However,whatever they do, they are very together. Long may it be so.
Yes, well - that's up to them, it's their life.
time to change icons -- next theme is race car DRIVERS.
hi Jilli! just finished...
Sadly, I don't think I'm going to make it to flip...these long days (coordinating a major dept move in addition to my normal work) are killing me...
hi pav...
...have a good one and save some words for me!!!!!! NYTOL!
I outgrew that 'need' years ago - sowed my wild oats in my teens and twenties - wouldn't commit to anyone back then, not until I was sure I was ready to and could do so. Finally did the first time as I entered my 30s and was very glad - it was definitely better. Have been in committed relationships mostly, since. In one now I am sure and hoping will last . . .
*thats cause pinis really old:P*
gads, woman...you forgot the apostrophy!!!!!!!
HAHAHA! Good night, Pini - I'm returning to bed in a few minutes myself.
Hi too
Thanks J.C. I'm still looking for it.
I think that when 2 male egos get together, 2 strong men who know wo they are, if not what they 'should 'be' this is what my friends are doing.
Looking for what, gapeach?
(not THAT old...just a one-person office managing 2 departments in the middle of a move...gads 10 hrs a day is getting to be a bit much - tired of the "I need you to do something right now; so, disregard whatever you're doing; then report to me on what you've accomplished on the things I told you to set aside!")
The ur5-14.
Not sure I follow, Jacula? Then I am awfully tired, on top of being sick right now - so make allowances, please! ;)
ur + self (change middle cons)
Makes me tired just reading about that, Pini . . .
* poof *
Then I'm more than tired right now! :P
poor PIni i was just teasing
You follow me, J.C? Then off to bed with you and dormez bien!
night Pini...and my sentiments exactly...waiting for changes to occur is a huge drag
Hi Pac and every one
Yes, you sleep well too, Jacula!
no harm, no foul, herin!!! Honest!!! * big grin * my babble buds keep me sane...go figure!
Erm - that's if you're actually going to sleep?
I thought I could figure these last 3 words by myself, but I must ask for help. I am missing re4/5, re5/16, and ty5/16. Any clues will be appreciated.
Sun's not up yet, JC and so this vampire can roam for a while longer.
ty5 16 = past tense of last ty4 6
ty5 is pt of previous word
Thanks, pini.
re4/5 - the lake grass with the letters changed around, sounds like what you do with a book.
Is jilibus still here?
I know, Jacula - but will be soon . . .
yes, JC -- just got back with my new icon and writeup
My dog is snoring and dreaming at my feet . . .
Smart little girl, she is . . .
re5 - one is re + not wet, the other is re + to change colour of something
your dog, JC?
Oh, Jilibus - there you are. I sent you an add on Flickr, but don't see you in the list of who has added me as a contact? I thought you'd accepted it?
re+ not wet, re+to color, or re4+ sometime vowel...re4 being the thing used on wooden musical instruments to allow sound thru...or Robert Re4 and Flo HEnderson were on the Brady Bunch I think...
re5/16 is either 'to remove the water from again' or'to recolour'.
Yes, jilibus - my dog.
I will, JC -- not very adept at flickr
Hi too every Lovely person I missed
hey Jac!
and how is mi'Lady this eve?
It's easy, jilibus - just log in there, then you'll see a notice of a new message in the upper right part of the page - where your name is. Click that, it will take you to where you accept the add - and add me as a 'friend'.
will do JC, and thanks xoxoxo
Tired from doing stuff all
ty pav3, flosey and jacula.
Friends on flickr? Not encountered that one yet. Oh, where will the PCworld tke us?
You're welcome, jilibus . . .
How are Pav?
What do you mean, Jacula? Yes - you can add people to a friends' list on there - as contacts.
Connect with them . . .
Warning for anyone on Facebook here, it's changing on March 11th. Seems your friends and the paths to them will no longer be private, if I understand the artile Franmag posted on there earlier.
*article
No I dont get it
I never post personal photos there anyway
I'm on your Flickr page now, Jacula - looking at photos of lovely home-made breads!
Maing me hungry . . .
Jacula, how is Franmag, please tell her I miss her
we are tiring...all work and no play ('cept for Babbling) - was stressed on Mon/Tues with nephew coming down on very short notice, but now that he's gone getting back to normal...
JC, did that work?
I'm going to bed, JC and Herin.
Yes indeed, jilibus - we are now connected.
night (or is it day?) Jac
Night night
flosey - join Facebook to friend with me and Franmag.
JC im on flickr too
Which gives you viewing access to my photos - they are private, to the public.
Going now. CRASG!
hi flosey -- I play Lexulous with FranMag on Facebook
CRASG?
thanks, JC -- will look when I'm awake, lol!
ah, then Jilli, perhaps you'll pass on my message?
will do, flosey -- and great icon, btw!
thanks jilli, and yours. Is he the driver of the car you posted yesterday?
Hi Flosey
hi there herin
I've updated my photo for the new theme...will take Joey and Precious for their late walk then BB
What sort of dogs, PAV3?
Oh never mind - just read it in your profile!
Precious is a Lhasa APso, and Joey a mix, mostly Lhasa or similar...
Pavlov's Dogs? LOl.
good for you Pav, talented young lady and she's a beauty too!
well they do have me trained !
I have no idea what all those initials stand for?
I'm off to bed now. See you all sometime in the next grid.xx
initials?
Pav, what is confectioner's sugar? never heard that term in Aus
Icing Sugar
confectioner's = baking sugar I think...superfine, powdery
Yes, Pav3 - sound like lovely little dogs! :)
ah that must be what we call castor sugar
Bzzz wrong. Confectioners suger is icing sugar Superfine is castor
thanks herin now i know exactly
I have a little mongrel myself, adopted from the Battersea Animals' Home. Her mother was a Whippet cross, her father unknown. We suspect she's part Poodle, and what else is anyone's guess. She looks like a small, fine-boned Labrador, sort of - nearly solid black and smooth-coated. Just a tiny, subtle white streak on her chest, no other markings.
Herin does it mean that all purpose flour is self raising?
J.C. hello did she get the Battersea Cough?
I have both a Bachelor's and Master's of Business Administration from the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque. My family has summered there while we were growing in Michigan. I was the first to make it a more permanent home until moving to Phoenix for $
No plan

Erm, no westford - no cough!
The sugar is icing sugar and the flour is plain.
Just wanted to save you all from geyying recipes wrong.
