hi west again
hi jilli
thought I was all alone
I think it's just you and me, kid
Is being alone a bad thing?
no not really
hi babrab -- not unless you want company ;)
but it's more fun to be with babble people
There's an about-to-get-on-with-the-day-here lurker...
hi monkey how have you been?
hi MG :)
Hanging in there! The work hunt sucks. But other than that, fine! You?
anyway, we're not alone -- we have George with us :)
True.
MG -- loved your Saqkia's recovery tale!
doing okay just the usual worries
Hang in there!
I'm here still, but George is cuter! ;p
we should start a rumor that George plays babble
I mean Saskia (can't type at this hour)
hmm I wonder who it is??
star-studded babbling!
Maybe he does. Who knows? He could say he's a girl from Dubai and we'd never know.... Jilli, thanks, and she is still totally fine! OK, I am summoned to feed marbles through the new construction. Catch you folks later!
who is what, west?
bye for now MG!
have fun with Walter !!
well, carry on, Monkey! :)
scroll down a little jilli I'm plotting
Poof!

I don't think I like this grid
oh, it's ok, west -- lots of real words

yeah..poor baby...its been all down hill since the passion...i wonder if thats some kind of divine retribution..lol
the ultimate critic
all that fame just went to his head
nah...if it was as simple as that i would have expected him to go off the rails when he was younger and just as famous
middle aged crazies?
well what does a man do when he already has a red sportscar?..lol
lol you said it
Back again just to change my icon -- sorry, George, but I decided to do the local leaf because it's unusual. Stay tuned...
Poor George. Spurned by jillibus in favour of a leaf.
Good morning/evening alll.
hello haz I'm staying faithful
Ah, here's Haz, to enjoy George before I reluctantly bid him farewell and tuck him into (my?) bed.
shh jilli don't tell
Good for you westford. Thanks, jillibus for the last look. The episode of ER where he appeared for the last time was on here through the week.
I swear I've never seen a man age so well
I saw that one too, Haz
you must be taking good care of him haz
He seemed to dominate the screen without having to say or do very much. Not that I'm biassed or anything.
Yes, Westford. He's always found solace in the cupboard under my stairs.
from which he escapes and teleports to my house
He tells people about Lake Como but we all know the truth.
do you let him out at night?
what Haz doesn't know won't hurt her
He's free to come and go as he pleases, west.
you mean he can't act, but looks pretty?
see? see?
you're so good to him haz
Poor man. So many deluded women in the world who think they have a relationship with him.
he can act, and he has a brain too (a good one)
Of course he can act! But he doesn't look as though he's acting. That's why he's a good actor.
he's no himbo
ata's just pulling our chains
Good morning Ata!
ooh jilli good word
hi ata
hi ata
I wish I were the one who made it up, west
did you hear trif's word..wasband for a husband who's no longer one
good one!
Problem is, when I see it, I either see waistband or washstand. My brain plays tricks.
maybe it needs a hyphen
would hasbeend be better?
that's good too
Hasbeen sounds good.
you know how you can read words if the first and last letters are the right ones -- so that d has to stay at the end
not like george, of course
boo, ata
george will never marry
Definitely not like George.
he's never been a husband anyway
he's saving himself
ROFL!!!
Ata, is Hobbit back to normal again?
so now I have to go to bed (really), so bye bye George -- I'll see you in my dreams, I hope
Good night, jillibus, sleep well. You could dream of much worse than George.
bye jilli that would be a very nice dream
Just so long as you realise that, unlike me, George can only ever be in your dreams.
oh yes, bouncing around like a maniac. we took her out to the pub when we all went for dinner last night. a bit of steak or two finished the healing process!
Not rubbing it in, or anything, just helping you to face reality gently. The therapist told me it was best.
Oh, good for her!
I think it's so nice that you can bring your dogs
what happened to Hobbit ata?
What Haz doesn't know won't hurt her...
she over-exhausted herself on a loooong walk
glad she's okay then
oh yes, it's a very dog friendly pub. she sat on the bench next to me and watched the world go by
That's just what Scrabbler says as well, Jill. She's got some strange ideas about George.
I wish we had pubs like that
well, Haz, I'm glad you're seeing a therapist...
couldn't we all have him for one day a week?
most of them are around here. we're in the middle of the countryside, if the farmers couldn't slope in for a drink at midday with their labradors and collies, they wouldn't go to the pubs
I'm in contact with your therapist, Jillibus, you're proving to be a hard case to deal with and she thought she'd look for advice from one who knows George well.
ata I have a friend who lives in Surrey and she brings her dog to the pub all the time
But don't say that you know. Professional confidences and all that.
he's a big one too
Jilli - we went to Leeds Castle the other day. It's owner in the mid 20th century was an American heiress who became Lady Baillie. She had Great Danes. And bred them ,I think
I think nearly every table had a dog under it last night!
Well, if those thoughts keep you happy, Haz, I wouldn't dream of interfering
I wish we had pubs
It's when the farmers start bringing in their pet goats that the atmosphere turns really ripe.
google has goats
We need English villages where everything is in walking distance
they keep the grass trimmed at their headquarters
I don't know about walking distance jilli my friend thinks nothing of going 5 miles to the pub
I'd be in another state if I did that
and now, bed, really -- good night/morning all *repoof*
That's a very eco-friendly way of doing the grass, but English people would be looking for the stripes in the lawn.
sure jilli lol
straight stripes
Sleep well, jillibus, nice to see you!
Absoltutely. Straight stripes or it's not worthy of being grass.
i bet gordon brown doesn't have stripes in HIS lawn
it does seem prettier
and he probably got made fun of for it at the latest session of parliament
does he have a lawn?
bet Chequers has stripes
Of course he does. The back garden at no 10 is used for photo opportunities and the stripes are mandatory.
as it should be
Yes, I can't imagine Chequers without stripes.
does Stormont have stripes?
the lawn at the Marine Commandant's quarters in DC is painted green
It's quite a big lawn at Stormont, 1 mile from the road. But I'd be pretty sure they do their best.
are riding mowers allowed?
oh my, west!
Just googled Stormont and YES we have stripes!
wooot!
is it Old Trafford that has checks instead of stripes?
I think I prefer checks
There, I've uploaded a picture of stripy Stormont.
I think lots of the football grounds have different patterns. I've seen tartan before now.
oh how lovely!
(Stormont I mean)
very nice
I know. And look how straight the stripes are.
perfect!
when I googled it I got health care
morning all
If you google image it, westford you get some nice pictures.
oh I didn't think of that
hello sprite
Good morning sprite.
how's the verdict on today's grid?
it's coming along
So far it's very nice, I think.
I liked yesterday's better
thanks :) *dives in*
just to save you some headache - you can't make tattoo in the grid today. you really just can't
so close josh
lol josh! And I take it you tried and tried!
no comment
nice young clooney, west! He matured well, though, I think.
oh yes sprite was just saying how well
wtf is the other z? i don't know if i can even attempt any other combinations
it's polish money usually ends in y
try ZL for starters
polish, eh
ok, gotta go and sort sister's phone out. back later!
yeah. stinking poles
got it
hi and bye then Ata
bye ata good luck
My moment of triumph was finding the zl unaided. Hooray for a trip to Poland last year!
nothing wrong with poles!
Bye Ata!
hi sprite! bye sprite!
poles are sneaky and good at hiding, just like their currency
i knew the word, i just never thought to try zl
Nothing like a vast generalisation to provoke comment.
perhaps certain individuals can be all that. But never a whole nationality.
luckily i would never try to say anything definitive about a nationality because i had trouble locating their currency in the babble grid
that's good josh
That is fortunate.
so I guess I was provoked to comment. Will keep still.
did you enjoy your trip haz?
Hi
hi herin
How goes it?
I enjoyed it very much, westford. It was to Krakow for 4 days in May last year, to celebrate my 50th birthday. It's a beautiful city and we also got the chance to visit Auschwitz, so memorable for a number of reasons.
Hello herin.
Waves hello
any language barriers?
hi lady
Hugs
Well, fortunately many of the Polish people we encountered spoke pretty good English. Polish is a pretty impenetrable language with more than its fair share of consonants (for the English eye) so we were grateful to be treated so well.
I can manage okay with French, German, Spanish road signs etc, but hadn't a hope with Polish.
I've always wanted to go there my Polish consists of 'Give me a kiss' Thank You and Good Night
That is one place I think i would be frightened and in awe of
I think I'd get along lol
Maybe be selective where you use those phrases, West!
i had that problem with hungarian and turkish
i got to where i could pronounce the words on the signs, but had no idea what they meant and no hope to find out without burying myself in a dictionary for 5 minutes
You mean Auschwitz, herin? It was fascinating, less emotive than I expected when I was actually there, but it has haunted me since.
Yes I mean Auschwitz. I was arguing with a kitty
I know what you mean, josh, and what they seem to be saying bears no relation to what the book says they're saying.
polish is almost as bad as welsh, if you ask me
They both have their vowel shortages.
It would be interesting to hear what Polish people think of English. It's not as though we have an extremely logical language or anything.
no kidding
My friend is Polish that has never been bought up before
because of all the borrowing in english, it is one of the most arbitrary languages in the world
Maybe your friend is being polite, herin.
No just one of those things.
Interesting point though
bottom two roys greyed
that pl5/22 was a lucky find
looks polish lol
That's why it amuses and frustrates me when so many people howl with annoyance when 'foreign' words are accepted in babble. It's just a characteristic of the language that if it can't think of a better word, English will just grab another language's word and adopt it.
looks yiddish
it's hard to tell where the boundaries of english are, sometimes
that too
The Story of English is fascinating have you read or seen it?
i don't know - possibly
that is a title i could have seen a hudnred times or not at all
it was a series on PBS
I love learning new words. I have a kitty on the edge of the chair and I really want to push her off
and a book but can't remember the author
I don't think so, westford. I enjoyed Bill Bryson's 'Mother Tongue', but then I enjoy most of his work.
push her off, herin. she probably deserves it for something
I have one on the arm of my chair
Written by McNeil, McCrum and McCann (The story of English, that is)
I was just googling you beat me to it
No I couldn't do that she will get me back in the am. i think his royal pain in my bum has been annoying her. He has stolen her tea tonight
21 left. i'm half-tempted to just run for the finish and sleep when i'm dead
I'll try to find Mother Tongue
go for it josh
but it's nearly 05:30 here
here too
why are you awake?
you sound like my conscience, herin
if I finish this I'll have a feeling of accomplishment
my cats have bothered each other. ONe is hiding on mum :D
If you have a sleep and come back to it, your thought processes will be rested and you'll probably find the missing words more easily.
you're right haz think I'll take your advice
I can't find the se5/12 for love nor money
but i've only 15 left. i can smell the fireworks
next door's kitty has just jumped on my lap and is busy scent marking the keyboard.
Second helping of smugness today - first I find the Polish currency and now westford is taking my advice!
se5/12 - hebrew word, found in psalms.
hi hydra
only because you take such good care of George
ty for se5/12
well thank you haz now I can go got the se
You're welcome!
Hello there, sprite. It's a little hard to type right now, with a cat's posterior in my face!
Sleep well, westford.
good bye all take care
Hello hydra.
Bye, weat!
and yet you manage, hydra :)
bye west
HI Hydra night West
I meant west! Not managing very welll!
hi herin
how are you>
fireworks
de6/36 was last word
Well done, josh. Now go to bed!
wwoohooo Josh

Not for me, thanks.
I am ok
okay then. sayonara
Bye josh.

I should head off as well - shopping to be done and it won't do itself. Back later!
bye
bye Haz
Bye.
HOw are you sprite?
ok I guess, and you?
tired and well tired
any chance of relaxing a bit this weekend?
Um other than now no. I was doing work in the car for 30min whilst we were stuck in a car park jam *i wasn't driving*
OH I did get 500grams of Organic Beef for $2.60 today. I could not believe my luck
it's really intensive for you. *hugs*
Hugs.
this is why i am taking a break
breaks are very healthy
Yes.
O and i got to watch Alice in wonderland this morning to
enjoy, hun.
I am
bye lady, be good to yourself. *hugs*

Lots of brain work to do

Too much study
oh better you than me! I'll stick with the digging!

:D

Morning.
Hi my net booted me again
Oh I am very excited, I guess the next Harry Potter is coming out in July.
anyone seen the new star trek movie yet?
OK, herin and I killed the chog, but it appeared to be already dead.
red, i'm going tomorrow to see star trek.
Hi lady, I'm interested in how it will be. I am rather a fan of Enterprise...
i read a review last night which said it was very good.
Are you hot enough in Gainesville? Boiling down here in Clermont.
I think a lot of money will be spent on Movies this summer, since no one can afford a long vacation!
it's been awful. little overcast this morning so not bad...yet!
i agree. i have to go to NH in June or else i'd be staying put myself.
HI no I haven't seen the movie can't afford tickets I tend to get the arrrrrrrrrrrrrrr versions
clue for the 8 plz
I worked for 3 months in NH a few years back, nice in the summer!
Movie, I am sorry I do not have it. But would you care to weigh in on the Star Trek movie??
yes june is usually very pleasant.
DOn't have the 8 either
Haven't seen it yet, turtle, but I plan to in the next couple of weeks
no 8 either
movie 7 8 combo is what you might eat for breakfast starting with oa
Well, Hopefully, we will get the predicted storms.
morning all

we are going back and forth too, rain then drought, crazy weather
wish we could send some to the poor folks in California --
they need it for sure
everyone is complaining about the rain here in the NE, but next week they will be complaining about the heat or whatever, I am sure!
My theory is it could always be worse!
too true
mom, it's a wonderful thing -- the drought last year and the year before was so hard on farmers, nursery owners, etc. -- it's just really dreary day after day after day . . .
at least wont be quite as hot today they say
Delt is a word

red, Thank goodness...perhaps, stress from not selling your home and the move to a new apartment
yw ccyber
that and the subsequent 60 hour work weeks....
Annie how are you?
red, I am okay...60 hours..too much but the pay makes up for it, I hope
the pay has been nice, but I am really wanting some more time off to unpack!!!
red, was reading an article about exotic imported wildlife taking over Florida, including Burmese pythons
It was in the New Yorker magazine from April
Yes, Bichon, the phytons are basically being killed anytime anyone sees them, and lion fish in the water are horrible.
thats why I made my fish tank all local fish, if I ever get time to get them!!!
Bichon did you hear though, about the extreme law proposed by someone in senate, that banned all non native animals? It essentially bans hamsters and goldfish.
Gerbils too?
gerbils, and a mess of regular aquarium fish. I cant find what happened to it.
There was a supposition in the article, that because of global warming, pythons could be reaching the NE by 2100. That's a looong way off though, and it's only a theory
I kept having dreams of a snake devouring my Bisky
http://www.wesh.com/family/19237426/de tail.html
going to list -- not finding this grid as nice as yesterday's!
Oh no Bichon. they are saying that freezing iquanas is cruel, but actually it is a very humane way to kill reptiles.
i hope your bisky stays safe.
In CT, he will be safe [sorta]. There are coyotes
The thought of reptile wandering around makes my tummy crawl
It took me a while to get used to the buch of little lizards we always have wiggling about in Fl.
The little ones are okay, but we saw big ones in Costa Rica sunny themselves at the swimming pool
We have a lot of birds that eat them, so...
Saturday at the food chain

Wow! Congratulations!
Thanks! My grandson weighed in at 7lb, 10 oz; his Dad weighed 9 lb 12 oz; so I feel like I'm handling a preemie!
Think I'll give my brain a rest for while and go work in the basement on organizing things.
Yay in advance for your first finish, quail! :-)
You can do it, quail!

Have to say that I enjyed todays grid immensly. That is to be expectedAta but it must benice to have her visit.
hi, FM :)
Hey DC how goes it?
oh yes! we've been to leeds castle and canterbury. utterly lovely
i'm tired, and think i may nap, but otherwise well. and you, FM?
LOL DC your post pretty much echos how I feel although I will hang on for a bit as it is evening but think I will get an early night.
it's mid-afternoon here, and i've someplace to be at 20:30, and did not get in last night until 4AM
You party animal you!
I was p at 5am

oh fun!!
What fun :)

tea please!
tea, pls
Okey dokey :)
hm. i may need to jump in and design a journal layout, using the most pleasing of oranges, browns, and deep reds.
GORGEOUS colours
i think so, the reds and oranges complement, an the browns help unify and to moderate the oranges. :) I may work in just a tiny bit of a blue or green for contrast. more likely blue to make use of the complementary aspects
a mossy colour green works very well as a contrast to those colours
*places tray down,help yourselves you know which yours are and there a some cookies too*
ooh, it would, and would be soothing. ty
thank you, fm! :)
you're welcome, it's nice to see you dc.
and you! i've been rather scarce of late between work and the hard drive dieing and getting restored.
http://tinyurl.com/6hqpuk <- my favourite colour scheme!
replaced and restored.
I've not been round that much this year.
OMG, ata, that's about what i had in mind! seems we like similar pallets.
all's been generally well, though, FM?
I guess so! I come back to that colour scheme again and again
HAz would like that colour mix too
Love that design though Ata
Hellloooooooo!

its ok FM, I didnt eat all the chocs in there :)
sorry am getting semi carried away with Purcells baroque choral music on the TV
walter probably creates antile4 stuff
Ladies, please, words I dont have to get into the PB...
brb, hi red
True, true, Ata. I'd better start training the ToGs in antidote chemistry.
lol dinok, it's OK I designed it with lots of cupboard space so there is always something to find in there. Hi Red!
If you haven't seen the pics dinok look in my profile.
yay for pics being back!
They are a blast from the past aren't they!
*wipes a nostalgic tear*
Hugs Vi :)
*breaks down completely*
Awe, there there dear, have a cup of tea and a box of tissues
Failing that I have an emergency supply of Haz's blue and pink pills?
I like the tea, but the tissues are always so hard to chew. *sniff*
LOL
try the aloe tissues vicuna, they godown easier.
Ah, thanks for the tip, redturtle!
I'm sure Ata would agree.
oh yes
I'm now finding this grid to be a bit difficult.
And now I must leave you, and my last 23 words, for later. Duty calls. *waves affectionately*
Bye Vi adieu!
think I will head off too as I want to watch my programme on TV. Happy Babbling.
bye dears!
(((Ata)))
sorry, front door. FM PB is too nice to be a PB. I reckon people delibrately foul to go in there!
oops too late I think. NM
they do lol
hello all
hi peri.
i need 65 fouls then....hurry up people!
ok I finished! 45 mins to find 72 words...and some new ones at that! TG for Lickety's list!
sorry red, already spent too much time there today. Putting on weight :)
yaaaaaay pav!
wtg PAV!!
may I help anyone (with word for the grid)?
ooh! good timing - hi PAV - can I have a clue for the s on the bottom row - all I have is a so 4
2 columns gray, bbs to finsh, 32 to go
so4 x 3....do you have the fireplace dirt? or the singular vocalist?
I have the dirt now, thanks to you! still one missing - I have the song
can anyone help me with oa7?
think "sun" pl
oa 7 - breakfast food, Tempest
so 4 - suns
oh, thanks, PAV
and thanks BR
tempest ...what healthy people eat for breakfast in the mornings
ok i now feel really dumb...lol...thanks jbv
I think it's a currency too
also good in cookies with raisins
and as long as you leave out the cinnamon, I can eat as well!
you can't eat cinnamon, PAV?
you allergic to cinnamon pav?
mix the oa 6 with vegemite and gravel and fill pot holes too
nope, no cinnamon for me...no red hots, and generally no apple desserts unless someone knows to not put in
wow...i think thats the first time i have every heard of anyone having that allergy.
me too
and cinnamon is supposed to aid in digesting, so I asked my doc to find another chemical to substitute, and he hasn't yet...
and I used to love snickerdoodles!
are there any f words that begin with anything other than a vowel or L?
no
phantom: farraginous
fe x 7 and fl x 12
PAV have you tried peppermint. I use that in my treatments for digestion, amongst other things
i need one more fl then, thanks
Ali: fl like a butterfly sting like a bee
fl 6/33
thanks, br, have that and the anagram
if there's only one 6/33 I have that too
it's either a big fish or someone strange word that nobody knows
hmmm, you know my friends in my freshman year advised me to have peppermint tea to help with that...it works, I had forgotten all about that til now! Tahnks dinok!
all fl 5/18 is grass
yvw!
hmm, that may be it, BR - thinking....
it's not flora
sins of the fl 5/18
the last fl5 16 is the parade of boats, fl8 without hte sickness part....
oh, ok, got that one too, I guess I need the list -
fl5 7 4 5 4 5 5 5 6 5 6 5
do you have fl5 clean teeth?
thanks, pav, one of the 5s in the middle, I'm looking
got it, ran away
thank you for your help - maybe today will be the day I finish without Lickety
GJ JBV! that's always a plus!
clue for fl5/16 that doesn't involve water?
pl of fl4 7?
or teeth
or opp of ceiling
have that one
or the wood/concrete/tile/carpet covering on your fl5?
How did I miss it? thanks
f + you say "I am sorry for your l***" after a death.
pl of fl4 7 mult insects?
my last four were de's : Santa's helper(s) (not that I condone the belief in Santa Claus mind you) and their exTensions
You all give great clues. One more? fl 5/18
which fl5 18...the speedy light, or the human fl5?
Lurking Fireworks
speedy light thanks
hey Met! congrats!
and the past tense of that becomes the fl7 48 quail...
Anybody want clues before I poof for dinner?
I was just entering that one . I love those words that grow.
I am so excited. I have only 16 words more to finish. If I finish, It will be my first time to do so.
what's for din Met?
GO quail!
Teryaki chicken on a bed of wild rice, cauliflower ....
The folks on this site are so great. I really enjoy my time playing.
It's nice to have happy people around
...and green beans? with a side of a pinot...?
..and for dessert a quick strawberry shortcake?
Hows by you, Pav? I tend not to get involved with the chog because it takes too much time to complete the grid, pls there have been enough people on here who cut in on a conversation and get snotty, as of late anyway....
And no, no green beans - I tend to prefer cruciferous veggies...
Snotty people, here?
How are those Mets doing so far?
Believe it or else.....
Crummy
I hear that...just last night there were a few who graciously ignored my help and while I may have felt pushed aside, it was to my benefit as I then started lurking, completing more than I would have...I like to help after finishing though
15 more
snap!
This is how it went: My sister (Reparteena) was staying in alone on a Sat nite, so I asked her if she'd like to go out with m e to the local den of iniquity, told her I always thought she'd make a great hag (they use the term on "WIll & Grace" all the time) and someone who shall remain nameless got all up in my face about being insulted by the term.
14 more
too bad MetsFan, I always remember my father when I think of the Mets
I think people are mostly nice here, but I don't really interact with them enough to think of them as friends
that happens all too often Met...I've removed most of my identifiers because of that...no sense letting peeps on who trash....
So I tend not to get involved with the chog as of late. The term is one of endearment, and she had no business cutting in on me and my Sis. Bichon, the Mets are doing so badly, I don't even want to wear my many shirts out!!!
Really? how silly - I think its quite affectionate Metfan
Well, that's you, Lynxxx, you're a sweetheart anyway....
and I don't interact if I see certain Babblers on...just lurk...
I was here when that happened ... how long ago now?
I was here when that happened ... how long ago now?
That's what I do, Pav, and only come in if I REALLY need a clue, or to announce fireworks.....
I don't have enough hours in the day to do this game, never mind coming back after I've finished to chat. I enjoy chatting when I do though
hey Lynxxx? how are ya?
It was about three weeks ago, inslomo
I'm good, and even better when I get my first coffee of the day BBS
and you are still offended over such a trivial thing?
What happened, was someone snotty
grrh! took me all that time to see ti5/16!
I'm not insulted - just incensed over her nerve, and it tends to make me stay to myself because I don't want to get on here and say something I shouldn't, which would be my tendency....
and mine was bout that time as well Met...I made a slight faux pax in re: our Pres that some took great offense with, and I wasn't conversing with them to begin with...but the kinder ladies mentioned religion and politics are not not good conversation topics...
you are saying it anyway
It's difficult to dicuss very serious matters in this kind of forum.. Sometimes you don't mean it but it comes out sounding wrong
I Mean I don't want to get reduced to the other person's level of name-calling and such....
hi all!
bichon I agree
bichon I agree
but you did
exactly, Bichon..and to think during the election anything was open...
and are now
I often just stay quiet when people start saying things I disagree with, and I leave if I start to get angry
Good strategy, nrkii, one I adhere to....
I think there was such an overwhelming majority here pro-Obama that if anyone was for his opponent, they kept it to themselves
I don't think people realize how diverse this community is, and that for every opinion, there is sure to be at least one person on with exactly the opposite opinion
calling Obama a terrorist is not funny
I definitely don't discuss religion anywhere except with very close company. It's too personal and can ignite strong passions
Met, we are like minded...no sense in raising hell with a game and peeps we only meet online...and some just need to be ignored altogether....
I'm sure it is to someone inslomo, as much as it might not be to many
Someone called Barack Obama a terrorist here?
The point is, you're not going to change an opinion in this forum, so let people have their opinions, and move on.....
you thing Obama is a terrorist
think
I certainly don't think any such thing.
I voted for Mr. Obama....
see, and this is where I don't bother to engage (foolish me to have jumped in with something so outrageous as suggesting that in a diverse group, you have people with opinions quite opposite to your own, no matter the topic)
Quite true, nrkii
...and with that, if anyone needs a clue, I'm here otherwise I'll get ready for my evening volunteerism...
and by the way, no, I don't
I do discuss politics, but only in a general sense. When I go visit red-state relatives I shut up cause they are so obnoxious about it
can anyone help me with ts5?
ts + lemon***
It's a Hebrew letter
or t+ sa4
thanks
Anyway I have marinating chicken waiting for me, wild rice to cook, cauliflower to steam. Have fun, all, and good luck, this wasn't a terrible grid. Bye all. {{{{POOF}}}}
night Met! thanks for sharing...
Bye Metfan - enjoy
bye MetFan!
The Mets will win again!
quite amusing here. hehehe
ok, I'll be parting as well.....have fun everyone!
thanks for the ts clue. I've only 13 left.
the cliques are forever
bye Pav
bye PAV!

can anyone help me with pl5?
can I help anyone?
pl5 = the main subject of a story or movie, plus last latter
oops. letter.
I would appreciate help with fe5/16, no the one with wool.
hi, mo, pl 5/22 - it's a yiddish word - add a high point consonant to the 4/5
my roommate used to use the word pl5 a lot
oh, that was for Tempest, sorry
it's a Yiddish word meaning to fall down exhausted
yay for the yiddish words!
fe 5 - what you have at Thanksgiving, quail
fe5.16 fe*** or famiine
pitty rurru's not around.
I shopped all day and now I'm falling down pl***ing
hi JBV.
haven't heard it in a while - I remember it more like a synonym for died of embarrassment
I thought it was yiddish for sweating like a pig
Or, when I heard the gossip I almost pl***ed
de5/6 - pretty blue Dutch pottery named for a town and plural
my dad said it literally means to burst
Yes pug, that too
that just about covers all the foregoing, pug!
Fe5 I thought I had tried that one. Thanks for giving.
When my son graduated from Harvard I was pl***ing for joy
sorry I wasnt quick enough with a clue.
:)
i know that the dog yi4 and that everyone's talking about the yi4. Bit o guidance on the other two Ys, pls?
de 4 5 5 6 --- pottery
thats the usual usage to burst with joy or surprise
yl 4 5
ti, inlomo
ta, inslomo
yl4.7 & 5.16 DC
yl 4/7, seain - a babblet, almost like what flows inside a tree without the x
hello, jbv
ty, jbv, that should've been obvious. :)
hi seain -
ok i am seriously slow or something with this p5-22, cuz i still cant figure it out...but thanks for the clues guys/gals.
pl 5 - start with a subversive scheme (pl 4) add last letter of alphabet
Tempest, you've gotten Lots and Lots of clues :)
homophone for lots
gunpowder treason and pl** + last letter
thx for the pl5; hi all
hi Pini!
hi Pini
hi nrkii...how's your dad?
hi Pini.
yay firewords for dinok! last 20 wds took 4ever. happy babbling must shoot!
hey thanks guys...i finally got it... my brain was seriously blocked for a moment...lol...thanks again.
hi mo
hi jbv
wtg dinok
He's good Pini. Home from the hospital after only 8 weeks (ha!), and we're just struggling to get him to eat enough
hi tempest
yay dinok!
Congrats Dinok!
I know the feeling Tempest!!!
congrats on his being home, nrkii...hope he eats for you!
(or rather for himself)
thanks :) this means I get to go to MY home in a couple of days
yeah...how's the job hunt coming along?
job hunt? who me? (nothing done on that front for past two months)
i get that feeling alot here... but i am addicted and cant help but keep coming back...lol
makes sense...probably shouldn't have asked then, sorry :(
just like the rest of us, tempest
oh yes...general proud mama anouncement! I almost pl5ed with joy yesterday when my son the boy genius told me he'd made the NATIONAL HONOR ROLL!!!!
hi, pini
hi pug
oh no problem Pini, I'm keeping my sense of humor about it and I don't mind people asking (shows you care, which I am grateful for)
congrats, pug!
yay for pug and genius son!! wonderful!
congrats, pug!
hi DC
yay PUGMAMA!!!
is that the National Honor Society pug?
you bet, nrkii!
suppose it's one & the same
well done pugs son!!!
(you know, nrkii, sometimes I wonder if your work demise was timed so you could be with your dad...)
that is excellent, pug
will give him access to lots of grants & scholarships unavailable to the general student population
You must be as pleased as punch Pug!
Pini, I don't wonder at all, I strongly believe it to be true
indeed I am!
great - and don't be afraid to bargain hard with the college financial aid offices - he will be wanted by many
proud mama!!!
so, in a way, although unwelcome...a blessing in disguise ;)
how old is your son, pug?
very pleased he got his grandpas superior intellect & scholarly abilities
he has some time yet to worry about that JBV he is only 14
ah, plenty-o-time, pug...best wishes to him for continued success
ty vm !
oh, very good, pug, he has plenty of time to think about it
Good afternoon, folks.
Fun grid today?
all-in-all, yes, a nice grid, takuma. Hello
hi Takuma - not bad, i'm down to 21 left and haven't used the list yet, so that's good for me

Hi people. How are "we" today?
hi Magy & Red
hello red.
we b gud, red; how b u?
any help for fe 5,16 ?
don't have it yet, tempest
the first one that is
The clue for se 5/12 that was given me earlier today was that it had to do with the psalms
se5.12 is the hearty h5.12 backwards
fe5/16 = large food party
Hi Lynxx, I met a bunch of Greyhounds needing rescue today, such nice, and delicate dogs.
that was very smart, thanks
Buffet?
god, it seems so obvious now. Thanks again pinikula :)
Tempest se + a note in the music scale.
* giggle * you're welcome, dawg
They are Red. Remember them for your next dog
:)
thanks so much lynxxx
It does have to do with the psalms, its in there all the time.
LOL Lynxx, I plan on keeping teulu for about 20 more years.
can anyone help me with me4-5?
any help for the stubborn A in the right hand column.
thats the last one
which one, tempest
It is in the old translations of the psalms. but is not in all the recent translations
Me**, Arizona
as5.20 Red
Sorry - az5.20 Red
thanks pinikula
yw
red .. az5/20
YES YES YES.... my first EVER finish!!!!
last al 4,4 ?
thanks! let me look, and I guess its true, My bible is not the new modern reqorked thing.
Congrats, Tempest!!!
az with short letter to a friend minus the n
congrats tempest
wtg tempest - congrats
Yaaaay Tempest.
al4/4 = options
Congrats Tempest
thanks everyone... now i understand why everyone says fireworks...lol
Is today a bird icon day? or do most people just have birds?
aren't they pretty, tempest??? :)
congratulations Tempest.
but they go away unless you become a pro.
oh yeah...and even more so cuz i totally had to work for 'em..lol
Tempest, I hope to make it my first today too. only 7 left.
dawg, did ya get the al4?
weird - I was so frustrated the other day when I was playing a different online boggle game which didn't accept that se5/12
nope : [
Goooo QUail Go.
what do you mean go away? :-(
Hi Takuma.
hiya red!
Noooo, I mean cheering for quail!1!1
2-weeks of freebie, tempest...then they go away unless you go pro
You go Quail... I shouldnt have to hog all this giddiness to myself.
al4/4 = al + **e **e fly
you can still play, Tempest, but no stats
Tempest, you are probably on your first to weeks, after two weeks unless you pay the very small fee, the tile states and your actual fireworks will go.
ahh well... as they say...nothing in life is free
did that help, dawg?
the small fee is worth it, Tempest
(and the small fee is for a lifetime)
but this is probably the best deal I have ever found, its like 14.00 for a lifet ime membership and you can get rid of that gray head too.
would it be shameufl of me to say no?
and the company is free
I know it was a cheer. Thanks. I seem to have gotten many of the strange words by repeated guesses, but have needed help on some of the ones I thought I had already guessed.
not at all, dawg....how about al + cross + pl
al4.4 abbrev for altitude -plural
ah there is a TS. a TS5
Takuma, are you boiling up north, I can not believe how Hot it is!!!! Its only May!
thanks DCS, the usual babblet.
pardon pinikula?
hot, red? it's only 62F here....
it's hot and humid like July here in DC, red :/ just like 2 weeks ago before the ran
good afternoon babble friends! breaking my own rule, chatting before NBT, but I am STUCK. Can't make a thing off that o in the last column. Help please?
I believe we hit 95-98 here today.
you should be here in England ... very cool and windy!!!
al4/4 = al*ernate*
breakfast cereal trif. hot cerea.
For O try hot cereals
hiya trif - how are you?
about 10 cooler here, red
hi Trif - oa, compound, think breakfast or cookies
hi trif
best served with fish....thanks!!!
Usually when its this hot we start having afternoon rains, but I guess the rainmaker forgot. DC, Washington can be Brutal in the summer, muggy no breeze.
pretty crappy takuma, but thanks for asking
thanks pinikula, eventually got it.
ugh, I remember DC summers
np, dawg...anytime!!!
Well i need to run its half 10 here and my eyes are weary. thanks again for all the help everyone....and good luck quail. Night all.
Elvis be praised, today there is a breeze. So not quite like July :)
: ]
night tempest
bye Tempest
gn tempest.
today is our first day of no rain in about 3 weeks
yeah, I didn't really expect that things would have turned around all of a sudden, but I was hopeful :)
goodnight Tempest.
Thanks, Tempest
Well Pinik, you do live in the wet part of the world.
I used to live in silver spring, dcseain, so I remember those days well!
ciao tempest
true, red...we don't tan here, we rust!
I grew up in Silver Spring!
I think we are going to tell the kids tonight, takuma - if "he" can fit it in his ever so busy schedule
carynnn, you there?
I don't want them to have to remember mother's day this way
I''m peeling today from last weeks excursion to Cape Canaveral.
probably another obvious one, but I need help on ti 5/10
wow - I really hope that goes well. He's sounding more and more like a cad
I read that "peeing" red!!!
I might be.
Silver Spring has changed tons in the last decade. barely recognizable, esp in the downtown area
ti5 = pl ti4
heyheyhey
Shoudl I admit that I do that too!
Ahoy. :)
I might be a little bit TI5
I grew up in the far reaches of SS - out not far from Columbia
Quail its the pularal of the ti4,4 which is an odd word.
Not much has changed up there
I am trying to remember the name of my fave restaurant in silver spring....made the best scallops I have ever had - and I grew up in boston!
Thank you for the help
Gate house? Green house? something with house it in
in it, even
lol seain, re ti5
ti4 rhymes with not little boy
Ah yes, that part much the same, takuma
tollhouse
it's on 29 as you get close to downtown
cookies, takuma?
Ah, tolllhouse not changed hardly at all.
I was guessing the name of the restaurant trif was trying to remember
Tollhouse Restaurant was a Tollhouse, and gave it's name to an area around US 29 in Silver Spring MD
darn, thought you were going to leave some in the PB for us!
lol pini - I am running a big risk by chatting so much, I may end up in the PB yet
Waiting around for PB dregs....
just don't forget to leave some on the table, takuma! LOL
the place I am remembering was right on a main street - right near the Metro station, I think
helps with R's I have the plant part, the unusual body alignment thing and PT of that and the tearing one....which one do I miss?
near the SS metro?
I used to live in the highrise right behind that station
I think so, but I might not be remembering things correctly
there's a diner right there, but I suspect that is *not* your favorite restaurant ;)
ri x 1, ro x 4 (4 6 5 4)
thanks Pini, iam missing the ro 5 then....looking.
foudn it thanks.
yw
last de6?
de + sodium chloride
thx BR! :)
hi, babrab

I am quite in a that is well you know
as + anagram of foot digit
it's a known bablet :)
er...az
hello, seain
az5 like portugues atlantic islands, sort of
got it! thanks
I have to look that one up -- that's just too much
ok, 5 more to go....but Koda needs to go to the dog park...so I'll be back in awhile...
have fun, maven maven
huh - actually, I like that def'n
ciao pin - have fun
hasta, pini, enjoy
Do you enjoy teaching, Takuma?
Sometimes ;)
Sometimes it gets in the way of my babbling, and then not so much
seriously, though - the better I get at it, the more I enjoy it
woot! NBT!
a 'SH5' newspaper LOL
yeah takuma! just got there here
congrats trif
I very rarely finish the puzzles, so I take my victories where I can :)
i need to bathe and consider dressing for tonight. And figure out where i'm supposed to be at 20:30
congrats, trifioso
oh, 201 mill st next to the bridge. cool. that's easy.
seems you have some serious work at hand, dc
My first fireworks. I feel like they should be all over the whole page. Thanks to all the folks since the day's page went up many hours ago who have cheered me on in my marathon. (I did take a sleep break earlier.) Time for supper...a cup of instant Thai rice will reward me.
Hello, Trifioso. Hope your circumstances are manageable.
congrats, quail.
congrats, quail
Cognacs, quail!
I think we are telling them tonight, BR. Please ask whatever god you believe in to be with us.
Yaaaay Quail!!!!!!!
way to go quail! another one hooked and booked, kids!
QUail. have something more than rice to celebrate!
Thanks, goodbye until next time.
rice wine, maybe?
For sure, Trifioso. May the grieving be short.
thank you friend
How does this Lickety list work? I'm slightly lost.
BR, that is a mighty troubling icon you have today. YOU okay?
caryann, it works elegantly. did you have a specific question?
Cary, you enter words into the box at the top, it will place in the list which is in alpha order. Or you can Bulk Add, see the instructions at the bottom of the list
I thought the icon expressed the apathy in the world.
i like the juxtaposition of the strange fruit and the swing
what does enable have against "ades?" lemonade, limeade, etc.
Oooh, alright. Thank you Lynxxx.
looks like you arethinking of the fires in Santa barbara areas.
Enable is insane, trif :)
hmmm. I do see where you would get that BR. I guess because I am a woman I responded more to the idea that she is swinging away while he is....well, swinging away, I guess.
yw, and welcome Carynnn
are all the y words y + vowel?
if you really want to see how insane, you can find a link to the full Enable wordlist in my profile
both need(ed) help and all alone and Armageddon approaching
Trif yl4.7 & 5
that is a beautiful image, babrab, worthy of Goya
LOL takuma
oh, thanks lynxx! i actually manged to use the points to help me that time, which rarely works for me
Thanks for the clue, lyn - Just greyed the 'y' thanks to you
yw

atme
Oops, not a word anyway
Anyone here? Hello lurkers!

I'm back and forth between this and scrabble
((Jean)) I have been missing you! How have you been doing?
Hi Scrabs! Hi all!
same same
thanks for the hug!
Hi Car
{{{sending hugs to your uncle}}}
HEY CAR!!!!!!
this is abuot the crappiest time EVER to be looking for a job
Did you find a job, Jean? (Hoping the answer is yes.)
Hi Trif
Hey Trif!
Hello Scrab! You all made it safe then?
So true, Jean!!!
{{{hugs to you Trif}}}
no scrabs, not yet. It's awful "out here"
Jean, what field are you looking for work in?
It is a 3 hr drive from Buffalo to Utica. My uncle, 86, does not look well at all. Puffy legs, swollen abdomen, needing oxygen.
trif either medical or legal, that's what I've been doing for the last 30 years
Anyone have the Z I am missing? I have the menagerie.
medical OR legal? in what capacity?
I need it too Scrabs1
sounds like polish money scrab
alt spelling
Polish money??
thanks esprit! that has been eluding me all day!
yw
yes
zo? za? What are the points?
Hey Scrabbler? How is the kitchen???
zl5/20 sorry
The new appliances look great. It looks like a new kitchen.
I have to choose a range hood and get that installed next.
it is a new kitchen. :) lovely.
I bought the house in 1989 and have been waiting to have enough money to buy new appliances.
Right side A? and the O words?
az5 = az + anagram of foot digit
the o word is something nice to eat for breakfast
oa7,8 = hot breakfast cereal
TY, Pini!
Heya skids
hello tor~~~
Yummers! TY!
hi tor
TY, Trif & Pini. Compound words always elude me. Actually, words greater that 4-5 letters elude me.
Hi torgone!
remember at camp when we said we were allergic to it? to be fair, theirs was GROSS
There is a feral cat in the backyard here, at my aunt & uncle's home, with 5 kittens. I was able to pick one of the babies up this evening. They are living under a shed. I saw them nursing earlier. SO cute.
My aunt said that the same mother cat has a litter there every spring. I am wondering--should be SPCA be notified or should we leave them alone?
(((((squee)))))) kittens!
did u get the ZL scrabs?
SO damn cute! 5 of them peeking out from behind and under the fence. Very curious. I easily grabbed one.
I did, Jean. TY!
{{purrrrr}}

She can't get on the 'puter right now,...but wishes all a very Happy Mother's Day!
Ty Pini!
a toast to all the "mothers"
Aknitter...how goes the recovery?

Good evening to my fellow babblers!How is everyone?
By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! YAY!
ak, my uncle here, I am out of town, has end stage prostate ca. Do you agree that we should control pain/discomfort even if it means he is snowed?
Hi magmom and min
thnx!
good evening min! how nice to see you!
Heya Min ..
Wow Min! You look very serious tonight....!
scrab that sounds reasonable - comfort is alays #1 should be attainable without snowing him though
trifioso loves her some albert finney!
hey scrabs.... ooh I love albert finney trif
Well I am suffering from some SERIOUS allergies right now. I took an allergy over two hours ago.Didn't help
torg, what did you get up to today?
he is anxious, knowing he is dying, so they give him Ativan. My cousin, his daughter, and all of us want him comfortable.
I'm stuck...have hit the wall...
Well I am suffering from some SERIOUS allergies right now. I took allergy pill over two hours ago.Didn't help
Scrabs...sending you all hugs and grace...
morphine is also a great anxiety reliever
Me too, 72 to go. I printed the grid this AM and worked on it all day, off and on
My usual Saturday .. Walk in the hills, lunch by the bay, grocery shopping ..
hugs and prayers to your family scrabs....such a difficult time
sounds like heaven! what a lovely way to spend a day....
Uncle Frank is the first of this generation of parents of me, my sibs, and my cousins to die.
Min...I am now on Astelin for my sinus/allergies...and I am so happy with it! It tastes horrible in the back of your throat/nose but it sure works GREAT!
Hi to anyone I missed I have a habit of driffting off
*going to stay with Tor for a week*
His wife, my mother's sister, is 89, and this is tough for her.
how old is he scrabs
I love Astelin and Patanase--work great!!
Is it over the counter car.eeyore? I took an Actifed.
Im almost out of Actifed, so went out and got Alavert
No, it is prescription. But it is just amazing the difference it has made for me. And it does not aggravate my headaches/migraines which is even better!
86, ak. In a Masonic Home, great care on the palliative care unit, with oxygen added today.
OTC, I have had great luck also with Aleve Cold & Sinus.
oh i could never take astelin - they have that really annoying commercial makes me want to beat the tv
I don't like the nasal sprays.I like to take pills instead
The nasal sprays (Rx) are far more effective than the antihistamines.
Now, nothing to do but babble and get ti5/16 ..
86- what a great life to have had. so many changes in the world - i think old people are really neat
A ti5/16 is how you might feel after too many drinks.
We just had a huge Italian dinner here with everyone and I am stuffed. There was homemade red wine, but I don't drink.
A ti 5/16 word is ti 4/5 plus sometimes vowel torgone
Min, I got the opposite...I was so tired of taking so many pills!
I agree, ak. How blessed to have lived to 86. My aunt is so angry though, but that is ok for now.
I know, Min .. I was using it in a sentence ..
have some wine scrabs and experience the ti 6 first hand
how many words start with ti- ?
5 Trif
5
4, 5, 4, 6, and 5
okay, I only have 4, so that is what I am missing. thanks car....
and kad too~
Alavert you only take once a day, whereas the other medicines like Actifed I take every 4 - 6 hours or so.
TY for your input, ak. I will visit my uncle again in the morning. He is on oral pain meds for now. He has metastases in liver, lungs, spine and ? brain.
i am sure through his wifes eyes he is not 86 but much younger
greyed the t! woot!'
Oh, sorry torgone. Okay, guess no clues needed now
Alavert = loratadine--eneeric
ya!!
but generic and save money
Wow Scrabs. It is nice that the family can be there for him.
Just not that one, Min .. I still have 122 to go ..
Clue the word please, Trifs ..
thanks that was driving me nuts
OOHHHHH GROSSSSSS - Just found another tick crawling up my ankle. That makes two for today. Now I feel like they are all over me....arrrggghhhhh
I have the creepy crawlies too!
o dear
*Trifs is diseased UNCLEAN*
passing trif a flea and tic collar -- put this on
Ew ..
Lower R please? I have the ro4 = what a carrot is.
I need frontline!
double eww
Let's hook her up to a bug light!
might curl her hair car !!!
ducking for cover
Trif--do you do tick checks on one another every night?
ro+ by yourse** and pl
anyway, tor, the t I was missing was the past tense of the ti 4 that sounds like the word for "to spin around" missing a w
Thanks Trifs now im itchy
ro4/7 = the piano-playing dog on the Muppets ..
TY MagMom!
ty trif, I needed that one
Yahoo, right column is grey! TY.
welcome car
Thank you Trif!
not every night, scrabbler, but i know we should. The chickens eat a lot of them before they get to us, and Diggity is frontlined. I already have Lyme, so I am careful.
you are welcome tor, me love
Do you have chronic Lyme disease?
THanks Trifs I also have a tiny burn on my arm healing and now that is itchy. Its a line from the oven tray and a small dot same thing about the size of a cigarette burn
I am not sure.
I just realized I need 4 letters for NBT...all vowels! UGH!
oh, thrillsville, guess who just arrived?
another tic or other bug??
68 to go, no blank tiles. I need to check e-mail. I might be back later.
Ummm...why?
I suspect a human equivalent to the tick ..
It's a pest alright knitter!
the biggest bug of all....
bring out the pesticide
wasband
Why is he there? Do you need me to come over?
unannounced visit?
to give primo a saw back. Primo of course is not here
LOL herin
I know where he can stick the saw until primo returns...
a saw? hmmmmm
might be a bit messy but ....
wonder how he would like to face 2 dozen angry babblers?
Hey she started it. I say be a bitch and put a court order on him and make him collect the kids from the cop shop and he isn't allowed near the house
Sometimes I wonder, how would they do that chalk outline thing if you push someone into a tree chipper? From one of my friends
Now ladies....
one would need a lot of chalk
meeeoooow
that is a somewhat colloquial expression around here, herin - can't live with them, can't run them through a wood chipper
Tri.... what was the name of that artist (singer) that you mentioned I would like the other day?
flashes
susan tedeschi
oops
Trif...still there? Need back up?
he is still here. and I think primo just arrived, so that is something
he wants his bed pillow back
as in the supermarket folks?
thanks... I am going to try some of her albums
oh too tempting trif

I will hold it over his face for him...
She is quite good ..

Yup!

We say: Calm blue ocean calm blue ocean Arrrr Call of Cthulu

ahhh does secundo really need the computer or is that pillow meeting up with some sinister fate
God help us all if anything happens to him...we would all be brought in for questioning!
hehehehe i will swear that we were all here
OK...need a clue for the right column A for NBT please...

az5/20
Got it! TY all! NBT!

Any PS words?

well if I was there I would go with you car... I need a little sweet
What ever happened to that any way?
DQ is down the street from my house...hellish!

TY MagMom...clearly I don't rate with Scoop!
im going to be done with my hair prob in 20ish mins
IF i was the judge *and I ahve seen it happen* He would ahve been told to take the gum out
well was that a bit of forethought on your part trif?

next topic, lbd!
Hi lbdawger! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
okay, Trif
I actually had one of my best days as a mom ever!
how is that, car?
(It was actually on Thursday though...but I am still riding the pride!)
I'm doing well, Min, thanks for asking
My 6-YO played in his very first T-ball game! {{beaming}}!
how fun!
It was AWESOME!
awww
Wait 'til you see the pics Scoop!
i like t-ball. about the only time i ever hit a ball! lol
cant wait!
i bet he was just super up at bat!
He made a couple of great catches and hit a couple of good hits and it was so AWESOME!
i bet!! sounds fun!
He is not the "sporty" type; but he did so good and absolutely loved it!
wow! he caught some balls! that is awesome!
But that is it...the extent of my glee...but it is still with me!
hope he continues to like the game
but I did have my "aha" moment today - God has put this in my path to teach me how to put anger aside, forgive, and learn to live in peace
that's a good thru the week-end ride, car
We are encouraging his enthusiasm!
(((TRIF)))
You will get there Trif...it just takes time and a lot of listening with your heart.
hope your son will have good coaches and that the parents realize that it's just a game. (those other parents)
Does anyone need clues?
Trif...you OK?
scoop...how many math things have you gotten through?
LBD...how was YOUR day?
yup
ummm only 3 so far theres about 20 questions for every section
not as fantastic as your's car, but a good day none the less
For those of you who have not tried it yet...Babble Expert via Lickety is great!
i so agree with you car. babble without lickety is nearly impossible!
hey lbd, i'm babbling tonight...
car, clue for the st 5, 10 please?
hey Nammy!
2nd one
change the last letter, trif
kinda quiet here, so I'm trying to exercise the old gray cells
Marlon Brando's girl's name less the double consonant
st 5/10 is anagram of the first st 5/10 word Trifioso.
thanks! got it
Hello nammy!How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
this isn't too bad, feel free to ask for clues if you need then, nan
lbd, I babble without the expert thing and I manage okay
that's cuz you still have brain cells that work, Trif! :-)
I still try to get through the whole grid without the list, but I am only human...a babble goddess, YES!...but still just a human!
Pretty good thanks. I babble most every day, I just don't chat much
lol Car
I click on it so I can't see the list!
Pretty nice group of babblers here. all friendly and smart, and funny...
Except for us mean old men ..
I have 6 words left & trying to get them by myse4/7.
I try to do as much as I can without the list too. usually get at least 2/3rds through if not more. then i obsess and have to finish! lol
You give us fodder TOR!
nonono, Tor, you're a rusty ol' servo!
Go Min!
lbd, my goal is simple, i try to get half the words
go, MIN!
3
half is good!
Having a goal is the first step towards failure ..
I blame moozey and bp for my addiction.
ha4/8 is even better when you're in the Penalty Box!
OK...on that note...I have to get to bed! Have a great night everyone! Trif...call if you need me! Love, love, love!
Scoop...homework is over-rated...have fun instead!
sweet sleep, Car, and happy mothers day
Goodbye car.eeyore! I'll see you tomorrow in the log!
night my love
nighty night! haha i will!
Happy Mother's Day to you, my Babble friends!
Does Mooz still babble?
i don't know. if she does she doesn't chat
oooh, here it comes - cheesy but perfect line....I am also just a girl, standing in front of a boy, asking him to love her....sigh
I know Swimmy babbles, without chat as well

notting hill....SIGH
Swimmy comes on occassionally. so does Cadfan
hello all -- I accomplished precious little today, and now only want to sleep...

Hi Stid. it's not too bad
stid if you list, you will breeze right through
Hi stidmama!How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
thanks trifioso, I'll get what easy and then list -- I have no stamina this evening.
are you feeling all right, Stid?
you okay, dear one?
I am done! I have fireworks!ha5/12 was my last word
whoooooo hoooooooo MIN!!!!
just tired, LBD. sitting hurts after a while, and I spent almost all day sitting -- in the car driving or sitting watching and waiting for kids and their activities. Which I am happy to have the time for, just... also have to work on these papers and now have no energy to write.
YAY MIN!!!!!!!
Can stay to help out with clues until flip or I goto bed
yay min!!!!
Yay Min!
so I am now reclining in bed, trying to stay awake so I don't get up at some undogly hour like 5... (as I did this morning)
maybe you and Tom need to take a little walk down the drive and back, then to bed.
what's wrong with five? that's sleeping in.
NUTSO!
yes, that would be nice, but walking hurts more than sitting right now.
c'est moi
*giggle* sleeping in.... (considers idea)
is it your hip, Stid?
11 to go!
stid is totally hip
go, Trif!!
yes, LBD, it is. BUT tom can put it back in the socket now, I just need to get it not so angry...
Wahey Trifs!
oooooh, thankee nutley!! *buys fully stocked brigantine for pirate-friend*
go trifioso go!
Try sitting on some frozen peas or corn, stid. the ice will help the pain
got any percs instead?
good idea, LBD, thanks.
no nutly, I can't take stuff like that usually, makes me weird(er than normal)
Hi evanonut!How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
when i had bursitis in my hip, that's what i would do inbetween PT visits
hiya minver...trying to compete with the stidder here
man, none of my doctors ever gave me fun pills, just mega shots or cortizone
i want fun pills, i was just being helpful and instead i fell down the stairs
owie, Nuttly!
oh no, nut! *hands ice pack, hot pack and pain pills*
takes pills away, and give a shot of rum
the sofa didn't land on me, so that part is good
corner T is grey!
you're suppose to be on the sofa, not the other way around!
good points, LBD...
teach it who's boss!
Min, any help on the A and the O on the right?

Mrp, I have a new granddaughter. She arrived Monday the 4th.
Good night all bedward bound ..
how lovely dawg!! congratulations!! what is her name?
Colette Daisy
Lovely name!
Daisy cuz it was the first disney character my silly son saw as they were leaving disneyland...DIL's water broke there
Could have been worse, I suppose. he could have seen Tinkerbell or Mrs Potts lol
oh dear! LOL!! not the best place to be on due date!
She's 3 weeks early. they were there as a belated birthday for my grandson.
ah, the dreaded/blessed 3 weeks early! Both mine were 3 weeks early too!! Good babies!
they had just checked into their hotel when DIL went to the loo and came out saying "uhm, my water broke."
well, that is a sure sign the baby is coming out!
will her nickname be "Duckie"? * innocent grin *
By the time they got back to san diego, she was starting serious contractions and by 6:30 Colette made her appearance.
I'm having a hard time with Daisy...i think of a few dogs i've known named Daisy, then there's Daisy from dukes of hazzard...
hi all...just peeking in to see if anyone needs help...
Hi Pini! ducky...i hope not!
I consider Daisy a flower!
Hello Pinikula!How are you doing?Welcome to the grid
that's what i'll have to keep in mind, MRP. the flower. I love daisies, they are always so perky like sunflowers
*sneaks in, sets of firewords and retreats....*
whoooooo hoooooo STID!!! i knew you weren't going to sleep! lol
very pretty, and grow well!! so Colette will be as pretty as a flower too!
Little Miss Daisy May; Daisy Duck; Daisy Duke; etc...hmmm, I see a trend...
hi/bye stid ;)
see ya stiddie!
Definitely have to think of the flower! lol
going to sleep, now. turning off the computer and all... ****hugs pini who finished first**** see you-all tomorrow! *real poof*
sweet dreams, Stid
alas, i must find my pillows too. eyeballs feel like they are going to pop out of their sockets. (quite the image huh). see you all tomorrow.
better go be nice to my husband... organise a nice dinner. see you all later!
I think I'll go find a dish of ice cream to top the evening off...
Bye MRP, Happy Mother's Day, and happy belly button day, Lickety!
*poof*
Ah 4/6! Pay attention! Here is a paragraph of clues. As I watch a da 4/5 Evans movies,I sit and write this paragraph. After cleaning all my fl 6/27, I started to babble. Sa 5/16, I was not able to finish the grid in a da 4/6. It took a great de 4/5 of time even though I went to the list at ha 4/8 way. I de 5/12 with nasty allergies today. They came on in afl 5/18.As a result, was not so de 4/8 at the grid. I tried to de 4/10 my allergies by ignoring them & not taking any medicine Finally,I fl4/8 to the store and got Alavert, but it did not he 4/5 my allergies. My nose still dr 5/14 and my he 4/6 is still stuffy. Was unable to taste my fe 5/16 of Chinese food.I hate not being able to taste my me 4/5! I fe 4/7 so much better yesterday. I hope that my allergies don't la4/4 as long as they la 6/21 la 4/4 year.Now with no more words le4/7 to find I am now going to ha 4/5 this se 4/7 pi 4/7. I am off to fl 5/16 my teeth&go to bed.Le4/4 hope I feel better manana
Goodbye stidmama! I will see you tomorrow in the log

I cringe when peopletalk about things laying around, or going to lay down etc when it should be lying around and going to lie down. Why do so many prefer the incorrect usage? My dad used to puzzle over this too -- why, when there is a choice, do so many choose the wrong thing?
I shall now descend from the soapbox
