Being a landlord, one word jumped right out at me . . .
Uh on - into the PB with me, PAV? :/
This grid needs more H words lol

hello stid are you here to enjoy and relax or on your way to something?
I am here to play until Casablanca is over.

"round up the usual suspects"
Stidmama! :)
"play it, sam"
hello JC.
And yes, Jilli - I saw that phantom! :)
rofl... here comes the bad-evil German guy.
Did someone called a TO 7/

the end of "Casablanca"
wtg josh -- nobody noticed mine
sam saying good-bye to ilsa
wtg jilli :)
jilli I am sorry !! gj !!
and a big marsellaise fanfare... *sigh, droop, etc*
PAV i know thats why i said 7/28 instead of the other one which i havent found yet
go jill go!
jilli I did, but i was irritated so I didn't wish to spoil your moment...GJ by the way
they're both ta7 28
humming that song now stid
ty -- it was easy for everyone else but I had to struggle! (Fatigue)
i am fatigued as well if it makes you feel better, jilli. moving is a pain in the shut yo mouth
and now stidkid #2 is singing "A kiss is still a kiss"
PAV 3 TA words one iis a 36
torgone...are all the me7's 7 32?
pav? why?
anyone found the 8 .. (lurking mode)
he 8 ruru
don't thinks so ruru
stid does this mean you have to leave now?
ruru not me
me7/32 x 2, me7/40
bah, can't even type
ah. NBT
I think so, west. Many items on my list of "to do" tomorrow, but not much travel involved and can sleep in a bit.
gj stid.
really looking forward to the sleeping in...
thanks tor!
stay...just a little bit longer...
hi all
buffalo alert
GJ stid!
hey dee!
hi volley
I can stay a wee bit west... why?
hi stid!
stid> sleeping is good!:)
hi dee
Hi West!..the kids are sleeping...
stid, did your sentra get fixed?
ty jilli
hi dart, pav; hugs jili; hi west
all back to normal now?
hi dee hi
hi dee
oh no jill -- it would cost nearly as much to fix it as get a new (small) car.
cars and people/animals that bleed that much should be allowed to go peacefully.
wow found a to 7
well, let's hope you can get your dear little Fit soon!
go ruru go!
ruru - did you get the 8?
40 left
yes...as normal as we are....I did tell you Prec had the runs the entire time I was away? I can never tell if she will behave or what..Joey was fine
he 8
finally found the he 8, and down to 45 left good night all
awww, stid, poor sentra!
no not yet
no -- Fit is out of price range. Looking at a Hyundai that both the stidkid and his tuba can ride in. In two or three years will upgrade to a bigger, nicer car
does the HE 8 go with another HE word?
wtg angelina!
tx jill
farewell angelina
he8/55 - compound word
I ha4 hyundais
Hyundai's are really good cars stid
bye west
sweet dreams angelina! ((hugs))
our son and dil both have them they are quite happy
tx stid, tc u2
I think it will work for us -- we need an economical commuter car for Tom that can carry a 6-foot teenager and his tuba. *sigh* none of the toyotas we looked at met those requirements!
the Sonata is the bigger car but not SUV or anything the elantra si really good too
We had a Hyundai about 20 yrs ago -- good little car and they're better now
ours was a small hatchback -- can't remember the name
jill yes better cars now as people have been getting to know them more in the past 5 yrs or so then 20 yrs ago
elantra is still out of our price range. We are looking at the accent -- small, no frills -- manual transmission (which we prefer) -- and there is one locally in blue... LOL
I think you can get a hyundai with three cracker jack box tops
LOL ruru -- why the animosity?
accent is mid size i think?
blue would be nice in that car!
I had a friends whose car was constantly broken down
accent is two-doors.
yes, but there is a good warranty and it can hardly break down worse than my poor sentra.
get a second-hand Fit
not seeing the he 8 compound or not
ruru me either
toyotas are much better cars
find a newer PT Cruiser...they should be around for cheap..now...and yes, I drove one and am sold on Chryslers for life (until Toyotas become less expensive)
found it
mazda millenia is a great car too
We didn't like the finish work on the toyotas, which is strange because Tom's family are long-time loyal toyota people. But the cars that were almost affordable univerally were either not going to fit a tuba and/or felt so flimsy.
Stid check Consumer Reports Used Cars
got the 8
the hondas felt more solid, but were out of the price range and not as easy to get hte tuba in.
hello flosey!
Toyotas are NOT flimsy!
(can stid kid play trumpet and get a sportier car?)
won't get a used car, jill -- need a good warranty
stid would the Cube be big enough?
maybe the more expensive ones are not flimsy, jill -- but the ones in our price range were NOT acceptable.
PT Cruiser is not reliable according to CR
can u say U G L Y
LOL ruru! we were thinking triangle...
lol
Kaz ugly what?
that way he could also call everyone to dinner too
My Corolla is not flimsy and not top of the line
PT Cruiser has ROTTEN gas mileage. We need close to 40 (or above) and only the Accent meets that requirement in our price range
I agree kaz.. really ugly cars..
I get 17 miles per gallon.. ughh
which car is ugly?
corolla is out of our price range -- as is the Fit, remember? *grin* we are poorer than church mice at the moment. where is robin hood when you need him?
cube is MLF
and the Packard Bell computers were the worst...except mine evidently..had it four years and not one problem..I lvoed my PT..it just wasn't big enough for both poopies and their stuff on the road to ALbuq...of course had waited two years to trade up I wouldn't need my Pacifica now would I...
passes the hat for stid ;)
We don't care about looks, but about function (and price)
Kaz i love it but then again i am weird its cool looking
stid, I'm sure you and Tom have done all the required homewrok and will make the right decision for your needs
no 6 if not called
looks can come into play later, when I have a job, instead of bleeding funds into the higher education system
i'm not a fan of toaster cars MLF lol
stid i assume even a small HHR isnt in your price range either?
thanks rbud! *throws party for donees*
Kaz rotfl
sa6 if not called
me 7 x 2
my son hits me everytime we see one lol
HHR?
Kaz does he like it?
jilli...Chevy's answer to the PT
won't buy Chevy. not a solid enough company at the moment. We really need the assurance that warranties will be honored.
umm let me think jill who makes that.....
ty pav
Thats it PAV thank you
I won't touch a GM either...
to 7 x 2
what is the name of that car that looks like a big box>???
and Tom won't even look at Ford. *sigh*
firewords
very low to the ground?
YAY dart! (what do you drive?)
YAY dart!!!
stid my hubby and i wont either we had one complete nightmare
Yay dart!!
chry. 300 now
woohoo, dart!!!
i drive a subaru. thumbs up from me on the subaru
Fix Or Repair Daily..i dont blame him Stid...mine was a nightmare
my grandfather built Caddies (cars, not golfing assistants) and my uncles built Fords...my grandfather would only drive Chryslers...
kaz found on road dead
subarus have good reliability ratings and such, but too expensive.
i'm 6' 6"...don't fit in the small cars
whoa
lol MLF I havent seen that one before
rofl....
we had a sporty subaru and loved it but expensive to fiz
wow dart! you're a tall young feller ain'tcha?
now now...hubby would say First on Race Day
fiz?
SCION thats it!
course, I drive a honda.... :)
rofl KAz and MLF
circe dont think so lol
ta 7 x 2
well not as young as I'd like to be
subarus are popular here cuz of all-wheel drive on the hills if there's snow uncleared
fix
and how old is that?
we looked at the scions too -- again there is a combination size and price difficulty
ta 7 x 3
stid did u consider a toyota, like the camry?
stid size as in length or height?
my son has had saturns for years and is happy with them
not as old as you or BR, ruru. I estimate Dart to be Devonian at the oldest...
lots of lesbians drive subarus around here.. it is their prefered car of choice
be hitting the 50 mark in less than 3 mos.
both, MLF -- tuba is long and fat, stidkid is TALL (and growing taller by the day) and thin.
wow.. what an old fart...
what on earth has that got to do with cars?
lol
or old dart as the case may be..lol
i'm hitting the 30 mark in less than 3 mos
really dart? wow... I thought you were a whippersnapper! *reaches for cane to get up*
too bad stid
ruru, i just spat my tea all over the place!!
what about an Astro van
? how come?
so dart doesn't drive a dart. *considering the implications*
go7
go Mango go!
we had one when i was a kid
dodge caravan?
uh oh..
udrf/
stid our son has a Hyundai Sonata standard shift nice car lots of room and the trunk is big enough for the tuba and stidkid
kaz, scroll back -- they don't like Toyotas and the Camry is out of the price range
ga 6 / ga 7
we have a minivan -- it's great for room, awful for mileage. Remember, we are in a rural area. No trip ever takes less than a gallon. Every day I drive costs me around ten dollars at current prices.
ruru I drove a Saturn for over 15 years and in NO WAY did I ever imagine people would be thinking I was single by choice!
ahh ok
are you a sept baby dart?
please don't put stidkid in trunk
THAT's what we had -- Hyundai Sonata
stid can you get a used car/
thanks, west, I think we looked at that one and the price was just too high.
you got it ruru
well, Joey needs his walk...and Precious is busy chewing a bone...there's always Hundai's cousins..the Kia's
no -- no used cars. *adamant mama look*
and he got it for about 4500 off the list price
kia ? i loved mine
later PAV -- and yes, we haven't looked at Kias yet, that is a good idea.
oh sorry Ruru, you said subaru... still, it is a very judgemental thing to say
he's very happy with it
lol sorry stid was just a suggestion
they are very reasonable, mine was very reliable stid
and that is another phant for this grid sept
BRB....
yeah minivans are hard on gas sometimes
not judgemental at all.. it is just what a lot of my gay friends drive
I wanted sept
lesbians have good taste in cars
it's a good suggestion, MLF... and we anticipated it by four years! *serves choclit*
we are happy with our 2003 Camry
stid ohhh
it refuses to break down
I think it's unfair that "tsar" isn't in the grid
I think subarus are great cars.. and versatile too
go 6 and go 7
what about a Sportage?
Back, after dealing with doggies . . .
won't hold tubas though
Hello, PAV3 and ruru! :)
my subaru would definitely hold a tuba
And Dee . . . :)
whatever happened to the Yugo? lol
yeah i guess not long enough
a sousaphone might be more difficult
lesbians have good taste in people, too! one's orientation and sexuality have nothing to do with good sense in travel modes. I prefer manual transmission muscle cars, myself... but can't drive a stick right now because of the bad leg.
i had a sportage MLF
Did you like it Kaz?
Well no, stidmama - doesn't have anything to do with much, we're all just people. :)
how do you get judgemental out of my comment buz
The Mazda Millenia will fit a 6 ft person
I like you more and more every day stidmama
mmmm, stick shift muscle car, those were the days!
i did..I had it for 3 years..living in the mountains..was great
I've only had manual transmission in any vehicles I've had. I wouldn't feel like I was driving, otherwise!
I have an 82 camaro z28 stick on of the few made
nice
2 more phants shazam mergansers....got to run..airport in 6 hrs...Vegas in 11 hrs...not sure if I'll have internet or not..so see you all Thurs or Fri.
I think I opened a car of worms
Kaz oh yeah woudl be great for that thats for sure! I really like thsoe cars but i suppose for everyday basic driving woudlnt be a good idea?
kia has quite a few that might fit stid's needs!
I have a little sports coupe - Alfa Romeo GT.
Kaz i love Kia's too maybe one of their SUV's?
I love mine as an every day driver
Yes, Jilli - a car of worms, HAHA!
had a '69 Mustang Fastback, one of the 2 Fords I ever owned. Fun!
bye dart safe trip
because I don't think a persons sexual preference has anything to do with anything - especially a choice in vehicle.
happy flying, dart
Well of course it doesn't, Bugsaw - why should it? :/
dart, be well, happy flying, thanks for the chat!
<< Gay.
fun J.C..I have a british racing green 1996 z3.. fun to drive in the summer
what we can't talk about gay people?
Erm, well not my doggies - as far as I know? :P
bye, dart, have fun!
our granddaughter's dream car is a red '66 mustang convertible
thx west jilli stid poooof
Hmmm . . . better not talk about me then! ;)
I would like an alfa -- or a midget MG. *sigh* or a lamborghini, if fuel weren't an issue. *sigh sigh*
west how old is she?
I didn't mean to offend and if I did, I truly am sorry. I was just shocked to think that people might have made assumptions about me based on nothing important
I'd like a driver
Once upon a time I drove a Jag XKE (a friend's -- my hubby's buddy -- wouldn't let my hubby drive it but let me!!!)
she's 22 and will graduate from college in Dec.
a forest green midget MG. with tan leather seats. And a hunky man for the passenger seat... (got the hunky man, still waiting on the car)
if we had the money we'd get her one for a graduation present
Jag's are SO expensive to repair!
Hmmm, Bugsaw? No, of course you didn't offend . . .
Are you also gay then?
no .. I just have a lot of gay friends who drive subarus and love them.. what's the big deal?
hood evening everyone. we have a dead 67 alfa in the garage. I have tried to give it away but hubby won't let me.
i was being facetious when i said lesbians have great taste in cars. they actually have terrible taste in cars, subarus notwithstanding
west, I just have trouble envisioning you with a grandchild of such advanced years! you must be very proud!
hood evening book
lol
hood evening to you also book! *grin*
A lot of you straight people probably do as well, ruru! ;)
subarus are great we had one for years and then another for years and years
ruru my hubby drove one and i hope he isnt gay! ROTFL
Hello, book!
why all this generalising about lesbians?
HAHAHA, MLFAN!
yes I am stid thanks
beats me jilli
Somehow, I doubt he is . . . ;)
Albie is very cute J.C
I am going to sleep. just passed eleven pm here and my brain shut down a half hour ago.
J.C. right?lol
we have 5 all girls 22. 21. 20 and 6 and 3
stid thats why i am chatting lol
Oh thank you, Kazozz - yes he is, and he's learning to use it for all it's worth! ;)
thanks for all the car thoughts. and thanks for the laughs.
stid -- can you just relax tomorrow and take a break from studies?
we were looking at VW bugs and my husband said no since only girls drive them.
west WOW
I am hoping for girl grandbabies someday, since my own offspring are boys.
stid - my first car was a red midget. Loved it. Then when I got married and pregnant, we traded it in. I never forgave my husband ( we had 2 little red sports cars), so now I have a Miata. Love it too!
that is sexist bookwoman
I took a break today, jill -- spent the day in Tacoma with babbler "riemann" -- Tom's best friend from college.
who made theMidget?
lol
Hmmm . . . I've seen plenty of men driving VW Bugs!
a giant made the midget...
a lot of the new VW bugs come with a flower pot installed - ewwwwww girly cars
MG.
it's MG, MLF.
It is getting just a little too politcally correct for me these days...
J.C my dad had one years ago
oh geez...i gotta go..hubby's cards not written for the morning..and not sure i have anything to wrap his present in either..off to search the cupboards lol! tc all. GL with car hunting stid..I look forward to finding out what you end up with!
WHAT IS WRONG WITH FLOWER POTS!!!???? *stands up for gardening rights for all*
so fascinated trying to follow chat that I've lost track of the grid... :)
Ooh, I like flowers! ;)
LOL later Kaz. See you soon!
grid? there's a grid in there?
rbud..what grid??
* waving bye bye*
It used to be Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and now it is a woman of no color and 7 vertically challenged individuals.
I am talking about the new ones and yes they have a flower vase inside. and you have to get a cute lic plate as well.
LOL, ru!
*sends ruru a dozen hot-pink roses in a silver vase with filigree scrollwork*
indeed, ru
ruru, i take offense to my skin tone being of "no color"
good one ruru
That would suit me, bookwomen! ;)
I look good in pink with flowers surrounding me, though - all too natural, like that! :P
I take offense to it being too late for me to think.
book. wehave a neighbor who has a VW its green and the license plate says PEAPOD
um... JC -- you look hawt in anything, darling!
Isn't that right, stidmama? ;)
I think old Rolls Royces had little flower vases in them, didn't they? I spose the Chauffeur was expected to put fresh flowers in them every day
Awww, thank you, stidmama! :) *MWAH!*
J.C Does pink go well with your eyes??
*winks back at JC*
oh, stid, it's never too late for you to think.
I agree with you Bugsaw and jilli
Seain!!! :)
haute or hauty
now you're talking jilli
Nice to see you! :)
*HUGS!*
seain!!!! join the pink flowers for freedom campaign? *pins pink flower in a monster truck pin on seain*
hello, all :)
hey DC
pink flowers for freedom? nu?
hi seain
no pink is for breast cancer
hi dc -- you stranger you!
rofl... we are having an interesting discussion on gender-specific profiling based on vehicles... or something like that.
Like I said, it's too late for me to think!
J.C Did you see my question?//
hi there dc, haven't seen you in a while
I think it was orientation-specific, stidmama? :P
bangs head on desk...
HAWT pink is not for breast cancer! *flounces around and swishes mightily*
indeed, jilli, i've not been around much.
flosey, been forever!
yes it is a pink ribbon
hi, jc and ruru, how yall doing?
me 7 x 3
no, joshua said the new VW bug was for GIRLS. sigh -- which raised my ire to a whole new level. *winks at joshua*
hi! just arrived. I'm going to try 1st to get to NBT in order - L to R, top to bottom. wish me luck.
tell about the concert seain when you've a mind to
Seain - see the messenger?

hi Melonhead et al....DC ! melon..I did it in 21 words...one for each tile...
tyty ruru
oh for goodness sakes there it is right in front of me
thanks ruru
was that a politically correct clue?
I actually tried he**ha**
why not, ru?
taDah PAV - did you do it in order?
I'm at 93 left...I missed a discussion it seems on whether pink is the new black..or something like that...
It's a clue I'm just not understanding, at all . . . :/
*SIGH!*
of course and that's all I'm going to say
started at upper left and went to lower right...
what, JC, the sheepish guy?
cool - that's my plan, too.
Think brokeback mountain JC and the job they did
Oh DUH - got it! :)
Thank you, ruru dahhhling . . . ;)
just make sure you keep those sheep away from my cattle
I can't quit on you...
lol
Yes - one of my favourite films, ruru . . .
thought so..
speaking of cowboys, saw Oklahoma! today at the theatre -- very good
rats - what should have been bottom row N went to the one above it - I slipped up!
oh how was it jilli?
Oh yes, Jilli? :)
ruru there's only one D? how does this he8 work?,,,hmmmm
was excellent -- small theatre, very clever adaptation
Oh what a beautiful morning...
Melon...negative + first vowel
wow I am stuck
Nice, Jilli! :)
You, ruru - stuck??? :O
Oh I'm not happy right now
ruru...trying to squeeze into size 30 jeans?
what was the luncheon?
Hello all! Fireworks!
wow jellen way to go..
hi jellen nice entrance and yay!!
Very funny, PAV - putting me to shame! :P
hi, jellen, congrats!!
I got a new cat from the SPCA today
do these make my ass look fat?
Oh god, Rushie - all my pets are rescues, also! :)
PAV - I got it already but tx. Just got to NBT in 22 words. Hats off to you for 21!
awww what did you name it?
way to go rushie!
head to the PB there JC
Tim did most of it...I'm just the finisher...
It got freaked out by my other 2 VERY territorial cats, peed on my brand-new duvet, growls at me and hisses when I pick it up
Oh good, I meant to say - not sure what happened to the other 'o' I was sure I typed? :P
and ruru ...nothing makes you look fat...'cept the camera
It? :/ Hmmm . . . sounds like you'll have some work with that one, Rushie.
Ridiculous change in behaviour from the first couple hours we had it
it'll get better, Rushie
way to lay the groundwork tim
'tis why I don't have pic taken of me...
hope they all get along rushie takes time
Cats can go like that, when they're in a new environment . . .
I've got him in the room with the litterbox
fabulous, west, and there WAS corn among other things like "Kansas City Ribs" and "Aunt Eller's Chicken" -- all delicious -- very good chefs
Yes, that's smart . . .
I'm still POed about the duvet though...
sounds yummy jilli was there strawberry shortcake for dessert?
What colour is he Rushie?
It's washable, isn't it, Rushie?
It's a white and orange cat
And yes, the duvet is washable
But now I'm having second thoughts about it
Wash it with borax and washing soda added . . . should help erradicate the odour. I would put it through twice, like that.
I just tried go5/24 and it worked!
make sure you treat it with de-urinizer before washing...
One of them is guilt for some reason
Feel I did something wrong with it in the 5 hours we've had it
No, not necessarily! Cats are funny creatures . . .
Very unpredictable, when in a new environment . . .
not you the other cats sent it a message
multitudinous desserts as always, west -- hot rhubarb crisp with ice cream, rum cheesecake, English trifle with sherry, double chocolate layer cake, pecan pie and many others -- fresh fruit too for the sensible people
Yes, I just hope it works out
oh my jilli I need to move where you are
Cause the SPCA isn't open till Tuesday
forgot to mention Ado Annie's sweet potato pie
Yes Rushie - as westford says, it was probably due to the other cats, and not you . . .
Guilt can be a good thing if it helps you correct something you can change, but in this case, I think the kitten was frightened by the carride, the other cats and the dogs in the house. Give him time to attach to you.
double yum on the sweet potato pie@
pie!
oh yes, west, please do!
I'm letting it attach to me alright
Yes - and what Bugsaw just said, also.
In the litterbox room
awww, poor scared puss!
does that mean you are sleeping in a litterbox room? It doesn't sound like fun
when we got KC our 19 year old cat would hiss and scratch so he went out and brought home a friend now the 2 of them just ignore her
Oh no
Yes, Jilli . . . he's bound to be, at first.
I am doing what I should have done
Leaving it in a neutral environment
Smart cat Westford!
yes he is bugs
Once he's not as scared he can come out and interact
good plan Rushie. I hope you enjoy him.
I was told to keep new cats seperated for two weeks
I hope so too, cause he just cost us $130 and I'd feel like crap if I had to take him back
Yes, I'm sure you would . . .
I know I would!
anyone have all the 7's? I am missing one.
Yeah, but we just brought him right in and gave him full blast of Ebony as soon as he got out of the kennel
I am missing a lot - as I only have 79 words, so far. :/
I once read that a room with a screen door is a good idea if you can do it keeps the new and old cats separate but they can still see each other and get used to each other as well
I only have 6 7's dee sorry
Yes, I've heard that also, westford . . .
you have ga 7?
ty ru
I'm trying to make this work though
Kinda sad, cause now Ebony is feeling left out
Why not take She's suggestion and keep him in your bedroom for 2 weeks. He would bond to you and always know where his safe place is.
JC, I only have 69 words, and no smart remarks please
I have ga 7 and go 7
don't rush it rushie..
Ooh, my favourite number! ;)
and I have zeros 7s
I found the 8!
it's like bringing home a new baby
Litterbox room is where he's staying
I said no smart reamrks, JC *stern jilli look*
could I have a clue on the go 7 dee?
*Hides from Jilli!* :P
wtg pav
remarks
HAHAHA . . . what was 'smart' about that, Jilli? ;)
nothing at all, JC >:-[
just finished the 7's what help do you need?
go 7?
ga, go, me, me, me, pr, ta, ta, ta, to, to
Hehehe . . . *giggles like a schoolgirl.* ;)
I haven't listed yet..
I am missing one ty jell!
koochy koochy koo jellen
go 6/7 go+ladies name plural for 7
I kept my new kitten in my bedroom and let them interact when I was around, my older cat (the one in the box) likes her but he doesnt like the other female who is about three!!
i wonder where the battery charger and batteries went
y were plugged in in the kitchen, and now they're not
missing the pr thx so much
hi jellen -- missed your arrival and triumph -- congrats!
go 7= go + **** and the King + plural
Thanks, jilli!
Thank you, Jellen - what a strange word?
thanks jellen and Tim
yes, thansk for the go7 and 6
pr 7 is an odd word
Wish I had it . . .
interesting etymology for that go7 (see the ?)
not for people with new borns
Now I will bid you all a fond farewell...have to get up early tomorrow...
au revoir jellen.. bonne nuits
nite jell and ty for the 7's
night jellen
pr7 for the child before its born?
no s on the end, ruru
Good night, Jellen . . .
Although it's morning here . . .
must be, but I sure never heard it used before
thanks professor
sweet dreams, jellen
to bed, well short of mediocrity. I was just up so the lamb shanks I am bringing to my dad tomorrow could cool off before I refrigerate them. gnite all! {poof}
don't mention it, stude
so...by now you should be unstuck ruru...?
night melon, mmmmmm....
sorta unstuck.. but it is going slowly
Oh, finally twigged - thank you for the clues! :)
you are taking lamb shamks..melon?
gn jellen and melon I wish you both a happy morning
:(
JC ?
Well
I do not understand why "shant" is not accepted- O.E. for shall not...?
49 words, I must be heading off
missing an apostrophe
shan't or sha'n't, isn't it?
good luck with the kitty, Rush
good luck with the kitty
I realy am not sure
The first one, Jilli . . .
bfn rushie, and good luck
congrats on the cat Rushie. things get better
Also tazer
shan't not shant
I've seen both, JC
Oh yes, Jilli? I haven't . . .
taser.. jai
Unless that is taser...?
either way it isn't good enough...
but then I have just seen lamb shamks too.. so what do I know
I am going to bed. All I am seeing is garbage!!! LOL! *poof*
well, it's abbreviating "shall not" so one apostrophe is for the ll and the other for the o
that was just me, ruru...I haven't seen lamb shamks nor shanks...that I know of...a bit sheltered I am...although we had a GREAT din at Cut in Vegas...Wolfgang Pucks's
missing one ta7 I have the people who lie in the sun and the one who lies out the most what am I missing?
oh wow pav what did you have?
the action of getting the browned skin, west
I try not to see them . . . :(
ty rbud
sounds like Pauly Shore, lol!
color + word for chronological # of years
double consonant in the middle
And yes, Jilli - I knew the first apostrophe was for that, but just haven't seen it written or printed that way, before.
ty ty I have all my 7's now
night all .. sorry if I bugged you bugs..
yw
TY Volley. Hello everyone
yw and hi
I can't remember where or when (nice old song...)
nite, ru!
I had the sea bass, Chilean I think, whole...it 's always good to see and hear you ruru...
good night ruru did you finish?
wow...what a word the last ta7...?
night ruru, no prob
nope not yet westie
bet it was delish pav
okay didn't want you to go without your 'yay'
we had a salad..
NIte Ru. I watch you wind up other people, tonight was my turn. I hope it gave you some enjoyment. We are still friends
like I said before...I was treated...I felt guilty afterwards for a bit, since they also treated to a Penn and Teller show...
hi lynxxx
Who did ruru wind up?
I must've missed something . . .
I did? I do?
Hi
tonight it was me JC
just kje and I banter mostly
I am exactly half-way with the grid, now . . .
i always want terp to work. Too many years hearing about UMD games, i guess. LOL
ruru doesn't wind up -- he banters
pav you have to let people be nice to you for nice sake I'll bet it made them feel good
Ruru wound you up, Bugsaw? How did he do that?
No.. I don't have an agenda bugs..
hi Infernal
ruru had a salad? where?....
Oh, PAV - haven't you received the e-mails?
still ahead of me, JC --only 82 found here
Waves hello. Lynxx love that pic of Stewart
You were sent an invitation . . . ;)
All in fun JC. No worries
hi, lyn and herin
Wow, Jilli - that's a wonder!
hi OSGD :)
Hello, herin . . .
I thought as much somehow, Bugsaw . . . but still wondering how? ;)
hi lyn and herin
ok, herin, what are your icon letters made of?
West...they're two of my closest friends whom I don;t see often enough..they frequently go to Vegas..I catered their wedding some 8 1/2 years ago...and I felt guilty and rewarded at the same time...lucky me...
HI OSGMA. DC its yuor turn
he said lesbians drive Subarus and it was just too much of a generalization for me tonight so I called him on it. LIke I said, all in fun
Oh THAT, yes - that was funny! :)
they wear comfortable shoes too
good evening mi'Lady!...and JC...no invites for moi...did I miss some event of epic proportions?
I can understand that pav but you should just feel good about it
And what do we do, ruru?
Us poofters, like?
lol (ducks)
Hey Comfy shoes are great
bug, I think you bugged too easily, lol!
well, I do now West...
did you have a good time and were they good company?
You did indeed, PAV - you were sent an invitation to connect to my swish new MySpace page . . .
good one Jilli. I did
How did that not reach you? :/
Nothing wrong with comfortable shoes. Who wants to teeter around on six inch high heels
herin pls answer my question!
I should go ...but that o on the left is driving me nuts
what question my dear sorry i was squabbling over a remote
I just greyed it out, ruru! :)
Want a clue?
I had a VERY relaxing time in Vegas....do you not thave the on4 ? ruru?
LOVE
If I can work out how to clue that . . . it's odd!
But it's a word I've seen before - and then, it's pluralised.
I only have teh on 4
i'd had an 8-letter bingo with nowhere to put it, herin.
o & word/s for legs
It's o + a slang term for 'leg'.
Does that help?
herin, I know what it says, but it looks as if it's made with berries or beads or something
og4/g - old alphabet
yep
Yes - lynxxx was typing it at the same time.
kinda sexist though...
lol
:P
I don't know about that - I have a nice set of gams! ;) Ask my boyfriend . . .
after what you just said!
thanks JC! and yes , you ARE helpful...although I was trying fit toe in there too...(oy!)
Oh god - I just said it! :(
I think it may be made out of that stuff you top cakes with red and white hundreds n thousands
Sorry!!! That's how tired I am - into the PB with me!
yes you did
Well, I said part/most of the word . . .
ROFL
And it is another word in the grid, anyway . . .
jilli brought back all the desserts from Oklahoma
Yes, I should be sternly punished now! :(
thanks, herin -- it's very sweet anyway, lol!
oh yes, west -- all for you, JC
I love the name hundreds and thousands

Oh yes - looks like you're joining me, westford! ;)

To connect to my MySpace page . . .

West they both did they were hungry
I would need an address though, westford . . .

do they know what they're having?
boy or girl or don't know yet?
yes, it's a boy
Hmmm . . .
got a name for him?
Well, go to the URL in my profile, Westford - if you join that site, you can connect to me via that page. :)
yes jilli, they've chosen family names, William Albert - grandfathers
I just looked at your profile I see more than one
The 'tinyURL', at the start of the bio section . . .
oh okay
The first one . . .
DC if yuo are about your turn
DC went to bed, herin
think dc left, herin.
that's a wonderful name flosey will they call him Liam?
damn missed him Hi Kanga
hey there, herin. how are you?
good watching BUffy
I think they're more in favour of full name jilli
You don't see the page until you connect, Westford - you will just see the basic info module. Once you 'Add to Friends' and I accept, you will see the page's content, with full customisations . . .
good way to spend sunday evening, herin!
how did Liam get in there?
oh sorry jilli, it was west who asked
Yep. We did this last night with Pizza it was good fun
i'm planning soup and tv for tonight, herin... once i get through this grid!
Stew and mashpotato here
I was just looking at it JC I will do that now
stop! i'm getting hungry... mmmm mash potato...
OK, westford - let me know once you have, so I can go and accept it right away for you. :)
Kanga himself has been unwell so we are raiding the freezer
i have to cook up a storm to restock the freezer. ran out before the end of semester. sigh. should be cooking now...
20 to go, hope to finish up in the morning
You'll find a few other Babblers you know in my 'Friend Space' on my page, westford . . . ;) Like Jilli, for instance! :)

I cain't say no! *poof*
loves OSGMA
I'm in limbo here and JC is nowhere to be found
west what are you trying to do?
join JC's page
on myspace
o
says I must enter his email address which I don't have
Hello, sorry!
dont know as i dont have it
I am here - was dealing with the puppy.
good now tell me what to do
Oh sorry, westford - OK, what to do?
Let me change that setting for you . . .
Hold on - will do that now.
when I tried to add you to my friends I got a message
OK westford - sorry, yes. I've changed it now so you can!
Try again, it should go through this time . . .
here I go
I had too many random strangers looking me up on there, and sending me add requests . . .
So I changed it so only those who know my e- mail address can add me - sorry about that, I'd forgotten about doing it!
I understand
I sent you a message do you have it yet?
OK N. B. - you are now connected with me! ;)
good!!
If you go back to my page now, or refresh it on there, you should be able to see it all . . .
I haven't got any blogs posted yet, but they will be appearing there soon.
I have some I'm going to move to there . . .
You will also see other Babblers you know in the 'Friend Space' on my page, and can click them to go to their pages and add them, too. :)
your page is amazing guess I'd better get a picture of myself in there
did you see what I posted about my web cam? lol
HAHAHA, yes westford - that would be nice! :)
You can message me on there now, and give me your e-mail address that way, if you want to - and I can do the same! ;)
Web cam?
I have help, from my web designers . . . but I wrote all the content. ;)
You will find a link on there to 'customise' your page - there, you can select a ready-made theme for it, which is what I did. My page is only one of those, with a lot of graphics added in the various interests' sections.
back for a few more, can't sleep
As you scroll down, westford, you will eventually come to the 'Friend Space', and see all the contacts who are connected with me - you will recognise a few of them from Babble here! ;)
Welcome back, flosey . . . :) Sorry you can't sleep!
JC it's off the chat now said I could take a picture with my web cam and I said no way I have wet hair and I'm in my bathrobe
I do recognize a few faces
HAHAHA . . .
or should I say names
Well you don't have to - you can upload any picture you already have on your computer. ;)
Yes - you can click on those you know, to go to their pages and add them, too! :)
funny thing when I signed up I immediately had a friend Tom Anderson and have no idea who he is
Seain, Jilli, Frances, Katrina, Laura (Fauxmage), Janet (itsallminenowtoo), Stidmama and Samantha (EvaNadine) are all Babblers, there . . .
and pav will be soon?
Oh, he is the owner of MySpace, westford - he's automatically everyone's friend, unless you choose to remove him. I had to remove him, because strangers were finding me in his friends' list, and trying to add me! :P
I hope PAV will be - I sent him an invitation, but it seems he didn't receive it . . .
So, I will try again . . .
that's good to know thought he'd been waiting for me to sign up lol
Oh, no - he hasn't joined yet! :P
is this where the games are played
I meant Tom Anderson
Games?
No - I play some word games on Yahoo's site . . .
Oh, Tom . . . .yes.
I remember you saying you played some sort of word games
ah that's right
Tom really gets around - he has the most 'friends' of anyone on that network! :P
I will eventually post a blog about the Yahoo games, with links and instructions how to get into there and play, but give it time - I'm very busy these days!
I have several blogs as it is, to repost there, from other places . . .
I have just joined there myself, from another network that's closing down.
I don't know how you do it all
I don't do it all - I delegate! ;) Make'em work - that's what I pay them for! :P
delegating is not easy
Meaning the graphics work I needed for the page - that's what web designers are for . . .
(if you make a wordpress account, you can send the same posts to multiple places, including myspace)
Sure it can be . . .
(not really here, just bein' helpful)
hi not really here ata
Happy late birfday ata.
hi Ata
mustn't blogs be written by the blogger?
Good morning Ata - still got your birthday icon up <-----
I'll be back later
how cute. Hi Haz
<=== me tooo! Morning all
lmao! ty haz dearest!! that's fab!
Good evening lynxx, good morning all!
Ata love jump to fb for a mo
ok, maybe I'm here as you lot are too :)
We can thank dear Edward for it, Ata.
morning FM
dear Edward. We do love him
Hi ya lynxxx
brb
I know. You probably can wear the Giant Hat of Cleverness every day.
I was just thinking yesterday that I should buy a New and Cool Hat
For when you're deported to the States?
yep!
lol!
That sounds like a good idea.
maybe I wouldn't fit on the plane with an Ascot-style hat on
I'd give the dead crow one a miss. And Eugenie's space-ship was a dead loss as well.
You can get fancy hats in M&S that roll up. For the fashionista on the go.
eugenie's was *awful*. was a dead space-ship / euphorbia cross suckered to her forehead
They lack mirrors in her house/
and the dead crow was just psychopathic I think
Shades of Psycho...
definitely. very disturbing.
or Hichcocks "The Birds"
Anyway, now I've seen you, I have to go! Back later. Be good!
Bye Haz see you later.
bye dear!
Bye.
bye Haz
I must get some breakfast, back in a while.
bye
everyone's gooooiing
except for those other 84 people anyway
sorry Ata but my tum is rumbling :(
well yes :) how's lyn and stew this lovely morning?
Stew is stretched out on his cushion (well, most of him is) all rugged up against the cold night. He's returned to his normal self after having to have been a 'dog' all week while Alice was here. I'm rugged up to enjoying the wonderful aromas from the kitchen - ken's cooking up a storm as is his normal weekend activity
how wonderful! great happiness all round!
han ner
Winter, warmth, comfort food, extra weight!

hi everyone
hi Andree
Hi Andree
guess where i went last night
simon and garfunkel concert, my dil could not go so my son took me
Oh wow was it good?
it was so fantastic
sang all their songs ending with celia, it was such a buzz
Lucky Andree
very lucky, $577 for 2 tickets so how lucky was I to get such a great evening without a large hole in my pocket
i took my parents to see simon and garfunkel as an anniversary gift a few years ago. :)
bloody hell that is too much
it was packed, another 2 concerts to go , all booked out
what's that in pounds?
350 pounds, roughly
Wow, I am behind the times. I would have to think very seriously to pay that much
wow that is a lot of money
I cant see how anyone could charge that
I went to see Take that and it cost £60 I thought that was a lot of money lol
i was pretty shocked when i found out
why couldn't dil go?
The AC/DC tickets are bout that though
*about
I paid $100 for Marilyn Manson and nearly flipped as the last concert was $120 for 2 tickets and the first concert was $30 when i was 19
tony has booked tickets for acdc next feb and they were 1/2 that
Mari phoned yesterday, she is having a great holiday
the acdc tickets were about $150 each
hi andree glad you enjoyed the concert hows that business of yours going any offers yet
katie , i think they had a fight and she said i'm not going out so he said okay I'll take mum, phoned me and I was showered and at their house before she could change her mind
Lol andree, hopefully they will have made up by now, she will think about tantrums in the future
I ususally try to make any threats hurt him not me lol
to give her her due she was very gracious about it when i saw her today, said it was lovely i had quality time with Tony and knew we both loved their music

hi chrissie
i am keeping my head above water, business is very slow but i seem to be surviving, many small business are not so lucky
hi lore, and everyone
glad to hear it andree after all your years of hard yakka
hi Chrissie
i expect it will be a couple more years yet, at least i am lucky to be healthy enough to still work as i am not getting any younger
hi chrissie
still stuck on the ga6 - not getting the seabird clue
how about that raising the retirement age to 67, I think its great if you can/want to but....
Hi faith. Not really here :-) ga 6/24, apart from being a seabird, is also used in the UK to describe someone greedy.
ga6 ends like an Easter Bo**** (hat)
ty lynxx - I was stuck
i think retirement age is in the mind and i had decided well over a year ago that 65 would do me, now i will have to wait

hello everyone!
Hi Mrp you confuse me now changing your icon.. how is your father in law and how is Madi getting on ??
Hi Mr PRes
hi norma! I will change my icon back... FIL is doing as well as can be, surgery is in 2 weeks... Maddie is recovering! All her classmates are in the same position... away sick!!
hi infern!! :)
What are they sick with this time .. did I miss something ?
What is the prognosis with FIL ...
he has prostrate cancer, it is very agressive and all the bios they took proved to be aggressive... so they are scanning him for spread of the cancer... bones, glands etc
What is wrong with Madi?
What is wrong with Madi?
What is wrong with Madi?
What is wrong with Madi?
Crap sorry I stretched and held down the enter button
maddie is suffering the side effects of her glandular fever from 5 years ago. Whenever she gets sick, she gets REALLY sick!
oh poor kid
it takes her weeks to recover
We will be thinking of him, give our fondest regards to lickety and give Madi a big hug ...
Thinking of FIL too MR Pres
FIL is very positive, so makes things better... little tears for his wonderful outlook

I have 17 left and im stumped

chat lurches to a start. how is everyone?
hello monkey
It's hemi-sunny and windy here, I'm guessing about 16 C.
good morning Babblers :)
hi zooz. and that sounds lovely mg, i am not doing well with this heat...
trying to grab a few words before hubby gets up
I'll happily trade you! But I'm a desert person so please dry it out oin its way here. I'm finding this grid kind of a grind.
Oops, gotta go (thus the hemi-lurking)! Have fun all!
hello nono
bye monkey
bye bye monkey
bye Monkey.
Grand prix has started...back later :-)
And chat grinds to a halt once again. Wonders if we are all off with Dads....I;m waiting to call mine until a bit later.
SO perhaps I should provide a Musical Interlude.....
good afternoon all
Hi Sprite, enjoying my musical Interlude while Chat is not moving?
very much so, it must be what lured me to babble
good morning Sprite :)
Ha! Your sun is killing me, its so extraordinarily hot here.
we are having a nice day here, some sun at last :)
still wet and dreary here
Its going to be record highs. we have what looks like fog, but, its actually just a cloud of hot ha**
am just back from the children's aikido lesson... the teacher thinks I can do aikido too, even though I am handicapped! He said I can come tomorrow night, in a very quiet lesson, to try some things out. Am so excited!
I think NoNo, your weather is supposed to come relieve us...
please take it red. I am so very tired of rain!
the weather sounds like we should mix a bit and have it more evenly distributed
ground is saturated, grass is so high it looks awful but too wet to cut
I can understand that Nono, we had a week straight and it was depressing. I dont really know why the rain cant travel about more "regularly"
agreed red!
You can have this heat though. Hard to wake to 80 degree weather.
well, anyway, I am going to look forward to it. Bye all.
good morning all
Hi Boo!
hubby is up, must go fix breakfast. be back later

sorry bear, I don't have it yet
I don't have one, Boo, and I have all As?
I was on the phone making plans for today's kayaking adventure. I have time to Babble!
lovely, Scrabs. Sounds like a good day.
I just found the 8!
It is foggy and dark now, at 8:30 am, but will get sunny and nice later.
nice word isn't it
Go Nanette!
what are the first two letters Nono?
and hello everyone
hello Annie
he Annie
yes sprite a very nice word
Hi Annie & Bobby
hello sprite, Is that the sun in your icon? I barely remember it
lol Annie :)
Hi Scrabbs, Bobby says Hi back to you...hi spritely
and spritey
I have good news and bad news, btw
Bobby, what are your plans for today? Baseball?
good news first
Morning again. Chat was so slow earlier I had togive it a Musical interlude.
oh give us the good news
Uh, oh, Sprite.
Hi red...please sing again
wb red
just heard that the SIL of a very good friend of ours has been stabbed at her work at a place for the homeless and has died in hospital. A young woman with 2 small kids.
NO, I have a froggy voice.
Bobby says he is going to a birthday luncheon with the ladies. My friends birthday. He likes to come and is always invited.
that's awful sprite
Oh my Sprite, how absoloutely sad.
oh geez Sprite that is terrible
No, how sad!!
Hi peri
the good news is that the aikido teacher of the kids thinks I can do aikido too, with all my handicaps. I can come and try tomorrow in a quiet class.
hello all
hi Peri
hello all
sprite, that is terrible news
yes it is awful. Our friend has been at his brother's all week. No idea how they will manage after tomorrow.
A similar tragedy happened here 2 wks ago. A 24 yr old woman that worked at a group home for troubled teens was stabbed by 2 boys that escaped and then were caught.
sprite, if you don't mind my asking, what are your handicaps?
hi peri
Well, Sprite, that is good news, I have wanted to learn aikido.
There is always some good to come out of the terrible things that happen
Oh so sad though about the death.
Good for you. What is aikido?
damaged pelvic girdle, bad spine and neurological problems, peri
aikido is a martial art that only defends.
Aikido is a form of Martial Art, but I think its more like dance, its very cool.
ag 5 24?
ok, did not know that about you, spritey
I wish there was something we could do for the brother and his kids, except let them know we think of them. It is so awful.
good news about the akido, sprite
a + stare, Lynn
not liking this grid
yes it is like dance, red. Very round movements, and the intention is to use the power of the one attacking you.
Listen, hug, bring food, offer to shop, etc. Just be there with their pain.
most of my stuff that I am taking to the new place was moved yesterday with the help of my goddaugther and her bf. but still lots of smaller stuff to go
ty sprite gc
rained off and on all day yesterday and looks like it is raining again :(
thanks Scrabs, that is it, isn't it. The best one can do.
So you are almost done, Peri?
rain and moving are not a nice combination, peri. I hope it will be smooth nonetheless
rainy, foggy, dreary here, nice first day of summer!
not quite, it is only five miles from me but I am getting tired of loading up my car and driving over ther
yvw Boo
Yes, Sprite, just to be present and to listen.
on the other hand, Zoe-Anne is taking her pill in the pill pockets!! but is still peeing outside the box. only once a day and much less but still pee :(
But soon you will be settled in, Peri, and then you will be happy that it is over.
Annie, I cant wait to get that rain, we are under a bad heat advisory, and it is so darn hot and mugy,
peri, when is the actual moving day? This running back and forth is so tiring. I remember that.
I am reading the newspaper--15 yr old boy died of H1N1 flu here at our Children's Hospital.
gratz on the pill taking then, that is some good news
I must be out by the end of the month, yesterday was the biggest move of small furniture and misc. stuff. I am giving the larger pieces of furniture to a thrift store and they are picking them up on 6/29. then I need to clean :(
oh Scrabs, how awful.
red, I am pushing the rain south toward you. We have had enough and Florida could use it.
I am pushing the rain to anyone who wants it
Yes, very sad, and it will also increase the anxiety of parents all over here.
Scrabbler, How very very sad.
yes, very much so, I am afraid, Scrabs. What can you tell them?
thanks sprite, I will take any good news, the move is very sad for me. I have been living alone, albeit with a cat for 19 years. living with others will take some getting used to
clue for the 8 pls
Wow...THey are crediting michelle Obama for increasing Veg Garden growing in America....Not sure the economy has more to do with that?
I hope it will bring you some unexpected blessings, peri
peri, where are you moving that you will be living with others?
peri: a guy that walks with sheep for days on end
It will be a challenge, Peri, but I do hope all of you will get along well, including the pets. Will you have to share a bathroom?
Peri, Moing in the rain is right up there with Moving in a Cold January, yuch.
I agree, red
15 minutes from me, with friends. I will have my own space tho. very nice.
yes will have to share a bathroom :(
but there is a park around the corner where I intend to walk and hopefully meet people. nice neighborhood
peri, Is it a private house that you are moving to?
yes, Annie
Sometimes nice to share a living space though, on occasion I just wish I had someone to chat with at the end of a day....
Like living in a college dormitory, huh, Peri?
I have to be off, bye for now all. Good luck with the parents, Scrabs.
yes, Scrabs :(
Does the 8 start with sh because I cannot figure it out?
he, scrabs
Bye, Sprite. And the parental anxiety will be justified.

take care Red
red, I was watching the news from Iran all last evening, hope it turns out well for the Iranians. Happy Fathers day to your Dad
Too much killing going on in the world. Will it ever stop?
Its interesting though how things come round, i remember being a little tiny child watching news out of Tehran that was similar.
Yes, I remember very clearly.
I hope though with the sacrifices being made in iran right now, that it will be considered worth it in the end...
I pray it will especially for women. More freedom
clue for to 7/36 please
to 7 --large weight and your years
My running buddy (one of them) is iranian, though he lives in Georgia. It's really something to hear him describe the country, it changes everything to just listen to him describe the city and the countryside...and not the politics.
morning, babblers!
hi Fuquay
hi fuqua
joining you from RDU airport this morning, waiting for a flight to San Francisco
I have read that Iran has the most beautiful mosques in the world
vacation? SF is nice.
Hi FV
have a safe trip, fuqua
Yes, I love SF
My friend that lives in Holly Springs is also in SF now, FV
Annie, I imagine if I went there, I would find the country really one of the most foreign places and exotic.
Hi Scrabbs, Annie, Red, Nono. It's a work trip, unfortunately, but maybe will get to do one fun thing.
Strange coincidence, Scrabbler.
work!
I would love to visit the Middle East but not right now
yes, i would not like to be there now....
I am hitting a wall with this grid, but I also have to soon get ready for kayaking.
red, would you ever consider working there?
have fun kayaking, scrabbs
I would have gone to Pakistan if I had been sent by Docs without Borders, but its really so unsafe for Americans that we are sort of banned, from Pakistan, Colombia and also Somolia.
Scrabbs, You must be feeling better! Have fun! Do you ever take a camera? I'd love to see photos.
red, perhaps one day
I would love to go and help rebuild some of the Hospitals in Iraq, to be honest, so much damage there.
Weather OK up there Scrabbs? I heard it was pouring rain in NY/New England yesterday.
I do take pics--will do so today. I am feeling better, still a loose, productive cough, but no longer having bronchospasm and freq cough.
Yes, it was pouring yest and is to improve today.
i hope so Scrabbs but doesnt look to promising here
I hope you post them up on FB or somewheres.
My mom is on a plane heading for Boston this morning, and she almost cancelled the whole thing after hearing about yesterday's weather.

women don't sweat

mmmm... that is a fairly long hike there..
women glisten
no6
exactly!
not old is no 6
that was pre-title now... now it is acceptable that we sweat
ty
(hands kje a towell)
i meant pre-title 9 - don't know why i typed now
I think I am part camel.. I really don't sweat much even playing tennis
last pe6/21?
writers anonymous is pe 6
then you are not drinking enough... not sweating means you cannot dissipate heat which means you are at a higher risk for heat stroke
ty
I drink lots of H20 while playing..maybe half a gallon
heat doesn't bother me.. most of the time
mrp in grid today
apparently the PB doesn't bother me either..lol

thank Min -- hey cross. are you watching a movie, cross?
It's really not a bad grid today with the list stidmama
nope,just clicked on that pic you provid ed min:)
it was fairly easy last night, to be sure -- I just realized the stidkid is supposed to call his grandparent in 40 minutes, and he isn't awake yet! LOL
fireworks
Congratulations phaeton on fireworks! Hooray for U!
remember everyone,its daddys day;)
hey minver, i worked with juliette on cold creek manor. she's a real sweety.
Hello bonkler!How are you doing?Welcome to the grid
i'm relaxing and just having a swing through.
Wow! That's cool bonkler! Were you in the movie also
Hiyo, babblers!
i was a day player, one of the crew working on the house. no lines but a full summer of work.
Some of Lewis's roles have not been so sweet bonkler
Hello Judi! How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle

thx minver
How was it working w/ Dennis Quaid & Sharon Stone?
yw Shirlockc and hello there! Welcome to the puzzle!
YAY phaeton (who was in the grid the other day) and hello everyone who showed up while I was changing the wash into the dryer!
sharon was awesome, she's a natural comedian and i got on very well with her. dennis would show up when he was needed and as soon as he was done he headed to the gold course. both were very professional and there were no "scenes". stephen dorff was also really nice and attitude free.
um, golf course...
As addled!
Juliette Lewis has not done a movie for 3 years, but she has 5 more movies coming out sometime later on.
I rarely watch movies -- last one I really liked was Wall-E, but the Star Trek movie was fun too.
she was doing music for a while there.
Yeah, I don't think Dennis needs any gold. He is rich enough, but I already knew what you meant bonkler.
so I don't know these names... LOL
Juliette Lewis has completed 1 movie and has 4 more movies in post-production. I got this from imdb.com.
if they're in post, she's completed her work in all of them pending adr.

bye Kallia
I am going to dog park and then grocery store. I will be back later today to finish and give clues if needed
later Min! have a lovely day! ((hugs))
Bye, Min. Enjoy the day!
bye for now, Min
I can clue for five more minutes or so, then must read a chapter in the history book. *sigh*
yay for history :)
maybe ... I read the teacher's online "introductory lecture" and find much in it to be wary of... it's an online class and the first assertion is one that I know to be false.
oh-oh Stid. What sort of history are you studying?
sane
Pacific Northwest History. Assertion #1: the Pac NW was isolated until the white man came and discovered it (paraphrase, but still)
Ooops! Sorry
go Nef Go!
in fact, there was a great deal of movement by indigenous peoples north to south as well as east to west even before the spanish horses became available.
OMG! It actally SAYS that in his intro? Where does HE live?
Where does he think all of the artifacts in that area came from?
LOL I know better, just trying to decide if he mis-wrote or if he actually believes this. If he miswrote, then he won't mind a correction. If he believes this, then I will have a miserable quarter if I speak up.
I don't know the teacher, so don't know which way to proceed.
Hmm. It's an "assertion" you say? Is he looking for an active discussion then?
It's part of the first "lecture" posted online. Which means he either believes it and wants the students to believe it, or he was writing too quickly and didn't think about how it might be interpreted.
There was such a rich culture there before the white man came along. I would say he HAS to be trying to start discussions
good evening all
I am hoping so... I really like the idea of an online class -- saves me HOURS of commuting time. I was htinking I might email him privately and inquire about it.
hello Munky!
hi Mad
Stid, I think that that's a great idea, do email him and ask.
so...hows the board today?
Hi everybody... I was wondering the same thing as MadMunky
I'm not finding it TOO tough, 50 words in 1/2 hour; but then again, I'm chatting
i don't think it's too bad
5 words in...say...2 minutes
that HAS to be my record

so I am off and away and running around again.
*poof*
hasta, stid, have fun :)
hey dc, are you still here?
hi, hurshy, i am. how are you?
(sorry cooking lunch while babbling)
i was wanting to set up a relay or bridge through Tor to help Iranian protesters but i'm having trouble and i can't figure out what to do. i wondered if you might be able to help?
okay, so what's happening when you try to dial in?
(assuming i understand what you're saying)
well, i already had the Tor program installed so i have some sense of how it works... but i now have at&t uverse and i dunno if that makes a difference.
anyway i was following the online instructions and it said if you connect to the internet through a router you need to set up port forwarding, so i got instructions for that
AT&T is the phone company where Tor lives
okay
but when i go to the IP that's listed on my router to change the firewall settings, it asks me which computer i want to change and there are two IP addresses and one Macintosh-02 and i don't know which is my laptop because the IP in AirPort isn't the same as either of the two listed.
and i don't know why there are more listed than we have, anyway, unless it is from when a friend visited last week?
the 2nd IP is likely your laptop, as they usually list from oldest to newest. friend last week is likely macintosh-02, i'm guessing
is there a way to confirm that i have the right one?
i was just checking the nework preferenc on this macbook
and the laptop is hidden. i only see the airport
and, when i say what services are allowed - i know i don't want to bother with all the game applications, but, well, i don't know what i DO want - what do they need? do i just pick the servers?
depends on whether the software is designed to work via router or needs the process of the computer
and i don't know that software well enough to hazard a guess
well, what things should i include to be on the safe side?
does it specify which ports to open?
i ask cause youdon't want to be wide open for the duration
define "it"
the place online where i'm playing with the firewall settings, no. but in the Tor program, yes.
okay, then i'd only open what the tor program says to open
it says "relay port 9001" and directory port is 9030
but there isn't any place on the firewall bit to put in that info
k, thos two make sense to me. let me do some searching...
hi folks! in to finish hopefully...
hello my peeps
hi monkey!
hi PAV
i just realized you are a man, PAV
howdy monkey and pav
hurshy, still searching...
i just clicked on your icon and read your info, how is Phoenix
hi seainy poo
well thanks, Monkey...I'll let my family know too....
Happy Father's Day to dads in the chog
thanks dc, i really appreciate it
Phoenix, is warm, even at 11 am...should be in the 100's later...I'm enjoying some time before going in to the office to clean out files...someone has to do it and since I take up the space during the week, my boss seems to think I should clean it also...
PAV i would rather be there in 100 degree heat cleaning your office, than here visiting my parents at the Jersey shore , where it has not stopped raining for 2 days
http://tinyurl.com/ntuutd for Hurshy
I'm thinking of emigrating to Australia or some island country where there's water and cool breezes...on the web only of course...
A happy Solstice to all!
australia will be a first with water problems with climate change, pav, go to NZ instead
summer solstice? is it a bit early?
if you like island breezes, I would recommend Barbados or some other Caribbean island, PAV (and I will go with you)
no, pav, it moves around a tad.
no Australia fro me!!!! too many icky spiders and snakes and strange frogs and things
clue for the 2nd he 5/10
I'd have to be able to t ake my poopies with me...does that narrow it down a bit?
opps he 5/12
your poopies?
he5 in your hair or on your hands - reddish dye
well, I hadn't considered the insect native species thing....hmmm, no bugs or pe4s beyond the nromal human kind...
hint for te6, pls?
i don't seem to have a firewall tab in the sharing bit.
not the landlord but the...
te6 is the person renting your space
ty, hurshy
poopies = puppies for normal english speaking folks...since mine seem to poop at least daily..it's easier for me to remember them as not human...
any of the rest of you Mac people? I 'm using one, but am still on a learning curve. Hurshy, you have full rights as yu are signed int o the computer?
there are too many big snakes in Australia, they might eat your poopies
monkey!!
I have a Mac-mini...the greatest thing since apple pie (without cinnamon, of course)
I can hear PAV now.... "a dingo ate my poopies!"
OMG littlebit!!!!!
pav, hurshy is trying to open two ports on hers, or her router.
well, I do keep them inside most of the time...
how's the weaather there today?
littlebit it sucks!
I have a straight up access through cable Internet/modem
if it's still bad tomorrow, I'm leaving
it looks like it might rain here today
really? the local weather for my town says 84 and sunny
has she tried the apple site for technical support?
nothing but clouds
here at least
those dam weathermen... i'd like to strangle them
it's suposed to rain here as well...we're in our "monsoon" season...
they should get fired when they are wrong
PAV? Phoenix has a monsoon season????
yes, i have full rights
i just don't KNOW stuff about firewalls and ports and so on
i know that firewall settings have a place to type in the port number one wishes to open, and whether to open them outbound, inbound, or both ways
ok, so that's the bit i'm doing directly online at the router IP address.
yep, I'm technically/electronically disadvantaged...I like simple plug and play...I know about ports and firewalls, I just don't KNOW about them...
i don't know about any of that stuff
hello
why would you have to?
127 to go
correct, hurshy, there should be an option - advanced, ports or such - that lets you conigure port settings
i'm trying to set up a relay that can be used to help iranian protesters maintain access to the internet with anonymity.
when the summer winds bring enough moisture to the area at a higher level, and the prevailing winds stagnate, or something like that, it creates an atmosphere ripe enough for thunderstorms and showers...since we're land-locked it creates floods and "dangerous" situations, hence monsoons.....
ok, yes, i think i have that dc, it says i can make user defined applications and i have made one called eve with the eve port info
good for you hursh
what's eve, anyway? what's special about that port number?
i had no idea PAV, i thought Phoenix was one of those dry places without a drop of rain ever
kudos to hurshy! I had no idea the Iranians were capable of tracking Internet access
does anyone have the 2 N words from the lower left corner?
one is a woman's name
oh yeah, the government is totally shutting down access wherever they can - that's why we have to try to help them get around the blockages.
Eve is just the name of the application, if i understand you hurshy
no6 - negate + your number of years, and no4 shorten no6
now i just have to wait awhile to find out if it works, i guess.
thank u dan2bit
yep, we're mostly a "dry heat" kind of place, but when it rains it either sprinkles = some wetness or pours = lots of wetness over a few days...we've been in a drought for many years and behind on replenishing the water table
it did not have a distinction about inbound/outbound, though, dc - i think it's all about inbound.
how wonderful, hurshy! that means you've got it configured?
an
a drought sounds really good to me right now
no4 is one...
it's been raining fro weeks. one sinks into the ground almost everywhere
makes me want to move to the Sahara, dcseain :D
Sahara? no...scorpions and such there....heck there's scorpions and such here!
dcseain, i found an amazing restaurant in Norfolk called Ibiza... it's a tapas restaurant similar to Jaleo, if you ever visit my neighborhood, please call me & let's go there, you would LOVE it
well i don't know, dc! i may have, but i don't know enough to know if i have.
one of my fave muppets in the grid today :-)
PAV i am not a fan of scorpions or spiders
hanz
hanz??
cool, monkey. some friends and i are planning a day trp for restaurants down that way - a friend of ours owns one in VA Beach
excellent!!! What restaurant in VaBch???
i'll find out the name and let you knew. My friend Elizabeth knows the name, and i know that Aimee Templeton is one of the co-owners.
that would be Razzo... restaurant in Ocean View ??? according to Yahoo restaurants
Ocean View is not exactly Virginia Beach, but maybe she used to be at Razzo
hm. vaguely familiar, but i am not sure.
at any rate, I would love for you to come try Ibiza in the Ghent neighborhood of Norfolk
i will make a point of doing so in July or August, on a day that Tom can come too. i'll let you know, and we have some flexibility
clue for pr 7 please
pr7 - choose to call someone before meeting them or birthing them
sounds great, dcseain
or, pr7 as re6
is the 8 a plural???? if so, I guess I don't have that 7 yet
he8 is a male who
he8 ..singular compund word...think Brokeback Mountain...
thanks pav
yw
cool, got it, thanks PAV and dcseain
littlebit, how are you feeling????
fireworks
better everyday!
congrats, boo
are you on a restricted diet, littlebit???
get the staples out this friday
no, i can eat whatever i want!!
life's good
yay! We ned to meet for some of that great pizza!
swelling is starting to come down and i need to gainback 10 lbs
i'm there!!
littlebit, you know all those "Life is Good" t-shirts???? There is a funny shirt for sale on the boardwalk here that says "No more wine? Life is Cr*p"
hurshy?
lol!!
i just looked at what i sent you. It's a good example, but not literal. EVE in that case is a game. :) You should rename it as Torg instructed and, change the ports to what he said
Torgone is a computer whiz genius
Torgone is a computer whiz genius
oh how did that happen
i'm assuming there's a DH word???

i've posted a link to a short essay i just wrote in my profile.
I just found a paycheck dated from 2000, hanging out in a box, a little odd.
on one ha4 the boss says keep stuff for history and the other you need to clear your office!

a big bomb pugsy
did it stop raining peri?
Peri! and Pug! how exciting to move...and to finish!
there are 2 me7 words both start with the same 5 letters.
what is the other one, peri? not the 2000 lb thing
moving does suck but I'd give my left arm to move!
and a third Peri taht is the heavy thing
yes it did red but I managed to lose one set of keys during the moving process today. :( they are the ones that attach to the cord around my neck. still have the cord but no keys
Hola Ms Pug
there are 3 ME7's
HI MET DEAR!
theywill turn up at an odd time....
OMG MET
probably red, they are somewhere in the new place
love to help you out pugs.. but don't need a new left arm yet..
hi, peri and met and pug and rur
ok ciao mes amis...buena suerte...
monkey I don't have an me7 that has to do with 2000 lb
metty poo! i have not chatted you in ages

peri, what me7 do you have? the plural of not nice people?
hasta lo luego

the most not nice people....
I have the pl of not nice people
bye pav
and look at red's clue
PAV? you need some new joints???? you should come see me at work (Phys therapy)
I could use a little more of a brain... pugs
trust me ruru you dont want mine!
i need the one that is not the not-nice people, not the big 2000l lb thing
do you have arthritis, PAV?
I've been seeing a chiro..and for some reason he's not into swapping body parts...
what have I got to lose? I might get a better sense of humor...?
arthritis? perhaps...my reg doc thinks I'm just aging ungracefully...
the other two me7 both start with the same 5 letters monkey. one is a pl and the other is the most me4/5
but it's warped twisted & depraved (not to mentioned damaged from the 70'2!)
I've also asked for a new brain ruru, to someone get meslef out of here!
oops 70's even
OK got the most not-nice person
ag
have you had any x-rays PAV they would show if you have arthritis and they you could decide on a plan of action
yay monkey
somehow...not someone...
good suggestion, peri
Hello Pug and Metfan.
:-)
and of course our not social friend tceicher.
thanks for me clues, by the way, i was quite flummoxed
Is Metfan here or not?

i like it peri, and it describes me about 90% of the time
no xrays yet...my doc is planning a stress test for me before my 50th (2+ years from now)
I had a stress test last year, it wasn't that fun, to be honest....
I had one about 2 years ago
I had a stress test last week, but that was just my MIL...
LOL ruru
LOL! ruru!
Good one Ruru. I think work on some days is a stress test.
LOL ruru
well, I don't have diabetes or other blood disorder, and my parts seem to work when needed so he's not as worried as I feel somedays...but that's what meds are for, I guess....
and the stress test is a physical exam, work is more emotional and psychological...mind over matter...
MIL'
Mil's are very emotional and pyscological too
Or psycho.. as an alternative.
Depends on your work, PAV...mine is largely very physical, lots of running about and pushing and pulling on heavy people.
yes...which is why I've avoided that issue altogether
but I had my stress test because my resting Heart arate was 43. and all is well....
yes, us gov't types do have the heavy wind bags to deal with ourselves...but I do know what you mean...
good to hear red. I had mine cause I had an abnormal ekg in my doctors office. but in the cardiologist office I was fine. the stress test went well
you must be in terrific shape red
how many points do I get for shooting the nighbor kid who likes to whistle incessantly which disturbs my poopies to no end?
down to 68 with no list. will have to get one soon, not sure how late I can stay up. It is only 3:30 pm but tired and achy from all this moving business
oh gosh i just checked its 94.3 with a heat index of 113! I was then Ru, but a little skinny. Now HR is about 60....
25..
that would get on my nerves PAV
go ru go!!!!
25 points that is PAV.. 30 if he drops to the ground
i have 74 left...
now to find a weapon suitable for action! (I'm anti-guns, so help would be appreciated) and the distance is generally 25 feet or less...
woohoo, listless fireworks!!! *collapse*
can you take out the bass player at the christian church around the corner from us pav?
but i am going to go out and try to walk dog.
congrats rbud!
pav, water ballooons?
sprays water on rbud
thanks, ru, feels good! :D
yaaay rbud, offers a cold beverrage of choice.
isn't there something about eating salt crackers in front of someone who whistles?
that would be un-Christian -like ruru! fer sh5!...and water balloons are bad for the birds...although pigeons are not birds...
congrats Rosebud
is that a mad coke or something red?
yum, cold beverage! ty!
he apparently wants the entire neighborhood to hear his awful bass playing...
nancy pelosi on thorazine could play bass better than that
that's how he learns ruru...encourage him to share his new-found talents withthe rest of the city...give him busfare..!
bass as in horn or guitar...
I have been considering water-boarding him actually
as in BASS ELECTRIC guitar...
may I help anyone before I melt down? (hot & humid here)
is that a shack on the pond? hmmm....
thanks rbud, but I'm done...
I am too.. I am just here for the chat for a bit
electric guitars do not belong in churches...sinful, downright sinful...
well, belated yay, then, PAV & ru, and any other present company finishers
but I can spray you down with some more water if you'd like rbud..
they are the devil's work.. right pav?
Hieveryone. Happy Father's Day to themen. rbub can you clue ep 4/6 or 5/14?
lol, ru, bring it on! *removes glasses*
yes...tehy're loud and obnoxious...tones are tinny and screechy! too many riffs and noise!
ep + short laugh, and pl
ep + a exclamation of surprise
woohoo!! fireworks!!
yay, littlebit!!!
yeah little.. nice job
WTG lil'bit!
thanks!!
thanks rbud
y both w
thank you ruru
I much prefer acoustic guitars....
off to go veg on the couch for a while...later all!
I thought that, too, PAV, bought our son an acoustic, darned if he didn't go right out and trade up to electric, sigh.
well, the longer I stay the less time I have for office cleanup...and tomorrow is Monday...
happy vegging, littlebit!
if you take the fuse out of the amp, he won't notice...
oh, he's too savvy for that, darnit! :)
...and then came the drums...argh!
ok, then just cut the cord at the end...
my nephew is on a drumline...they're good...
thankfully we have a little shed in the yard, the noise moved out there.
ok well off I go...good chating with y'all...see you agin
I am thinking a baseball bat to the amp would do the trick
see you later pav.. have a great day.
*testing another ip connection*

Fireworks
thanks again!
Well done Katie :-)
congrats, katie
just curious.....has anyone ever completed a puzzle with out using Lickety?
Many people, many times. Especially for the years it iddn't exist or the days it didn't update.
There was a time when there was no lickety, I used to do it but not as often as I do now
wow....seems impossible to me.....hats off to those who have done it
There were many more clues in the chog. We still have days without it as lickety does it out the kindness of his heart and sometimes can't get to put it up
There are still a number of babblers who rarely use Licketys...Sprite, Ata, Hurshy, LoriP, Anniebrook, etc.
you folks must be real wordmasters.....
we didn't have lickety and there were times when brandyjack didn't post, so we helped each other with clues like we do now and kept hand written lists to keep track of the numbers
I usually go to it at half way as I have a husband now lol when I lived on my own used to do it without a lot
I almost always use Lickety's, as I like to finish (although you wouldn't know by my stats the last week) so I am *not* one of the masters.
Oh the days of paper and pencil nan, I remember them well lol
i try to get about halfway also before Lickety rescues me
I have a great book I turn to as well, I always think AtoZ is cheating, no logic there but still
otherwise i'd be on here all night
ta 7/36 please?
I <3 morewords.com
Not your to7, but your ta7, Nan! Your sun levels.
1st 4 letters as below plus someone's number of years
I used to be lkdubb lol
ty uni and katie
rarely finished it before midnight and that was playing in my lunch hour and for most of the night! No wonder I had to find hubby online lol
i tell my wife better to be on here Babbling than out chasing wild women
The grid flips for 2 am for me, If I am not done by 10 or 11, I give up. Now. I used to just do it no matter what :)
Oh, you're chasing wild women in here. We just wear tinfoil hats.
she says I wouldn't know what to do with a wild woman if I caught one
it flips at 6am here, in all the years I have only made the flip once lol
lol lkdubb
and she is probably right
Lori and I stayed up for a flip together once..it was thrilling, but I like to sleep.
they all run faster than i do
so I couldn't catch one even if I tried
I've had a great day, finally feel better thank goodness and our great friends asked if they could come on the holiday we booked yesterday, life will be complete if I can persuade Mari to come as well
*!* ta da *!* - thanks for the help:)
the women here are praying mantises
congrats nan
lmao BR
Hoorah for cybernan! *fire baton display of glory and magnitude*
where are you off to katie?
hmmmmmmm.....don't praying mantis kill their mate?
Why do you think there are so few male babblers?
we are going back to the maldives for hopefully more glorious sunsets as in the icon
we scare them lol
could be but they give great eulogies
that explains it....
Mari is both Mari & Mr Mari, he babbles more than she does but doesn't chat so much
sounds lovely
We may be married but I would have a fit if hubby got up before me and filled in some words
mind you the shock of him being up before me might kill me off
I wish my beau would do babble for me sometimes...it'd be faster!
maybe hubby sneaks in when you're not looking.......
So, the pe6 is elduing me. Fish or clue?
remember wives are all knowing.....
something you write with + french word for oposite of yes
pe + the booming of the ca**** on the battlefied
Not a fish. Thanks.
We are also coming out the Canada to see Diem in September of next year.
I love having holidays to look forward to
Anybody need any more clues before I get an early night?
I`m fine but thanks Katie.
Right I'm off to bed, see you all tomorrow!
byee :-)
3 words left, 1 S and 2 H and cannot find them even with the list :(
do you know what your two `h`s start with peri?.
no, using the old lickety
they are 4 or 5 letters
have one ho, 7 he and the rest ha
will check again
must be babble blind, and very tired from this moving business
thats all i use..is the old lickety..did not know there is a new one out there..lol
I meant just lickety not babble expert

Thanks to the pe cannon word I finished the grid and am ready for afternoon activities. Tried to get ahead in Latin but that may be too little too late.
hello everyone ... just popped in to see how things are going and help if I can.

Hello zoozzoom. If I didn't have the list I'd still be on the first grid I ever tried.
and stidgmere.
what list?
look at the bottom where the links are ..there is one called `lickety`s babble clues..it is there
bored ... Lickety's.
lickety's list...link is under friends of babble section
Lickity has a list that tells the first two letters of each word. How many points each word is worth and keeps the list updated as you play. Very helpful.
A babble life line for me..LOL
sorry ... wasnt explitive enough.
Well, time to say poof and have some family time. The leaves are scooting like butterflies. First day of summer!
me too zoozzoom.
he8?! Oh jeez

fireworks for me
Ok, back from a very short trip to the gym. got 74 left.... and Yaaaaaay Peri!!!!!

Hello zoozzoom, still here?
hi JC.
yes still plodding away..got 22 left
Hi, red! :)
Ahhh, there you are - you should have e-mail?
From MySpace?
hello J.C.
Hello, mo! :)
my space...??..i do not use my space..but my son does..well i set it up for him..lol
Well you have a page there!
Oh no, another zooz?
I found it by searching with your e-mail addredss, and it's in your name! ;)
So I sent it an add request . . .
No, red - it's one and the same, him. :) Erm - 'address'! :P Excuse my typing!
LOL..red....thats because i set it up for him ..i will check it out later :-)
HAHA, OK . . .
It was just that feature on there, that does a search on everyone in your address book, and shows you which of your contacts are on there . . .
Yes, Facebook is that way too, sometimes it connects me to very odd people that I am not sure why I mailed them years ago...
Oh yes?
Hmmm . . . you never got my add request on Flickr, red?
interesting...not sure if he still uses it though..he ihas set up a twitter & face book now
Oh . . . but the page is in your name?
If you accept the add request waiting there, you will have access to view my page's content . . .
oh i barely ever use flickr anymore, too lazy...
Which isn't on view to anyone who's not a contact.
Oh, I see . . .
i'll have to stop by there...
Oh, I was talking about MySpace, to zoozzoom . . . but same applies to Flickr, with my photo albums. ;)
I have yet to upload a lot on there, that I haven't had time to sort out yet.
Are you over the cold, H?
I think so, lungs are getting better slowly...
You need warmer weather!
Warmer weather, this time of year - in the US? Must be quite warm there now, surely?
Sorry to hear you've been poorly, red. :(
69 F now
Yes, that's quite warm . . .
going through a lot of sunscreen
BR, i believe you are making a bad joke... you knowthe heat indexhere has been as high as 113 f.
if it was 69, i'd be wearing a sweater...
no, I did not know
its really hot!
the night low is predicted to be 80. geez.
Oh my god - it's been that high, already?! :/
You can have that . . . :P
And keep it there, please! ;)
its Florida though Jc, it never gets coldhere, but usually doesnt get so hot either....
BR your temp sounds likeexcellent hammock weather!
Oh, I see - but I thought it usually does get quite hot there, in summer?
Yes, had a great nap swaying in the hammock
fireworks
been in the seventies here .... sweating weather
without list and with only a little madness
Well done Josh
Good Job JoshuaV!
Well, much better than I can do, Josh . . .
Congrats . . .
i thought i would never find the 8
JC it does get Hot, but we are pretty much actually tropical, so instead of summer Winter, Fla has raiy and dry seasons. Our issue this week is that it has decided to not rain at night....but soon it will start again...I hope.
Joshua care to clue the Eight???
Oh yes, I see . . .
cattle groups and male
someone "of the sheep" "for the sheep"
A shepherd? ;)
Ha ha I got it, let me enter it. an hombre of the sheep.
that clever quip cost you a trip to the PB, ol J C
How is that, Joshua? :/
That word isn't in the grid - although part of it is.
PB is for when people type words into the chat
it's not a big deal, i was just being funny
In which case, don't talk about the body parts attached to your wrists, either . . .
Yes, Josh - I know.
It's Ok, I put Blue berry muffins in there, so everyone should want to go to PB.
Oh good - I was very afraid of being sent into the PB! ;)
Was quaking with fear . . . :P
Ooh, blueberry muffins? Well - that doesn't sound so bad? :)
thanks, H .... like blueberry muffins a bunch
Yes, I can also brew up some coffee....
I might get to it faster, if I got a clue for the D word.....
fully appareled
Coffee coming right up. thanks!
Oh, I've just found you, Joshua . . .
BR you icon isa bit disturbing today....
fireworks :) and now off to rehearsals ..c u all soon
sorry, I was a smidge distressed at the time
Josh - check your e-mail.
Congrats, Kazozz! :)
Rehearsals - very familiar to me! ;)
wtg, Kaz, and be safe
hello
Hello, harpjane! :)
Hi Harp1
hello, harpjane
Good evening to my fellow babblers!How is everyone?
By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! YAY!
himinver
Hello, Minveryork . . .
hi, babblers!
Hello welki! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!
clue for the ga6,24? please :)
A ga6/24 is ga + double consonant plus ** phone home
Hi Minver how are you today?
i don't know what it means but it contains a double letter and and alien who should phone home
pr7?
Hello Maniac!How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
Ugg... the bad part is, I thought it was that word, but I kept using the wrong A and going "that can't be right, it doesn't connect!"
a prefix attachted towhat you call yourself harp...an odd word.
A pr 7/36 is to na 4/5 child before it is born harpjane
Isn't that a bird?
A bird known for eating a lot?
is it?
thanks minver
I'm doing well redturtlehead. Came here to give clues
I think so . . .
yw
it's a seabird, yes :)
Well....I needabout 61 more.
Ooh, I actually knew something for a change! :)
the g word or the P word?
The ga word . . .
OK, I've been here on an off allday and I'll say, the icon is my Dad and it keeps surprising me....
Oh, I didn't know who it was . . . why does it keep surprising you, red?
it's like, whoa, why is he here...
I have my dogs in mine - they're cuter than me.
Well you put it there, red! ;)
Well, tomorro is pet icon Monday,
Oh, is it?
In that case, perhaps I should change it now . . .
and Fireworks..phew
So I don't overdo it with the pets! :P
gratz :)
goodnight all :-)
No JC, you are just ready for monday. I will have to find a new pic of Teulu...
Oh jeez
Haven't even had this new cat for 24 hours and it just screwed off
It pushed the screen out of the window and he was gone in 10 seconds
Is it a wild cat, or just new?
A new one from the SPCA
I think I may have to get rid of Dad icon, it is a little too disturbing.
It was so friendly and nice, and then my other cats freaked it out so bad it left
Maybe Rush if you put a little food out it will return, or a new cat will show up....
Just led a cathunt around the place for 15 minutes
H's done YAY!
hint or clue for ... me7/32 please
most me4
not nice at all, superlative
Hi Horse, the most not nice person.
or the closest to the center?
I have that one but I thought there were 2 of 7/32
Oh Rushie, introducing cats to cats is always a challenge.
There - changed it, red.
pl of the me6
JS, thats not a Pet!
Oh yes - that it is. It's the reason I haven't tried adopting another cat, while I have my present one - who is very temperamental, and doesn't take kindly to other cats!
Erm, no red - I told you I was changing it, so I don't overdo it with the pets, before tomorrow! :P
My mom has 3 cats, and each time a stray comes by...the three are so mean to it that it leaves...
Ok JC, I see...
Just me, not a pet - unless Mike considers me one? ;)
Got it! Thank you Shirlockc, red and Harp!
gont
oops\
Yes red - that's how my cat would be, if she could get outside to terrorise any stray cats that wander onto this property!
My parents keep indoor and outdoor cats, which is not reccommended, but, its hard to tell parents. And those cats are sort of partly wild anyway...
go6? help?
sorry harp, do not have it...is Minver still here?
Erm, Rushie - why would you let a new cat outside? You're not supposed to let a cat out for at least three weeks, they say - although I never would, because it's not safe for cats outdoors these days. Too much traffic about, and other dangers . . .
JC,, Rushie';s new cat pushed out the screen, I dont think she meant to let it out.
Oh, I see . . .
should he have pre-screened the cat?
Goodness . . . I hope someone manages to catch the cat, then!
Hello, ruru . . .
LOL Ruru.
I will just say :P to that one . . .
phantom manitee
(That's a raspberry.)
My Phantom is annotate.
Mine is mango . . .
I like strawberries better jc..lol
Oh, I love them both - most berries are good.
Blackberries, blueberries - not so fond of gooseberries, though! Too tart . . .
goosing I like.. gooseberries no
blueberries this year are gooooood.
lol
HAHAHA . . . well don't goose me! :P
Would a kind soul like to clue some of the O's from the left hand column, I have one....
O + legs as jc says
I would, if only I had them, red. :/
Oh, I have two of them!
Many thanks ruru, now my O's are obliterated.
OK - o + leg, and o + legs.

Oh, sorry - ruru beat me to it. :P
herp it is a big big big weight.

the other one is ... a mouse! a mouse! so i climbed on** a chair!
Say, ruru - would it be possible to send you an invitation to join our little network of Babblers and other weirdos on MySpace? ;)
Hello, welki!!! :)

Hi Welki, Hows the fishing?
hi, j.c.

Well, it would've given you viewing access to the conent of my page, and any blogs I will be posting, ruru . . .
Oh well. :/
It's all very easy to use . . .
I enjoy chatting with you more here...
Yes, but . . . you would learn a lot, if you could see that. Never mind - it might frighten you! :P
lol.. it would take a lot to frighten me..
Oh, well this way you'll never know how weird I am. ;)
I guess.. I like you the way you are here then..
Awww, thank you, ruru! ;) *MWAH!*
(Now he's frightened!)
nope
...and i'm feeling the love *lol*
what love?
go6?
between j.c. and ruru ... maybe it's not love, maybe i've confused it with another emotion
No, ruru? Oh well, that's good . . . :)
Welki, Lovely observation... :)
Hmmm, welki . . .
I don't know, but you've confused me! ;)
SHirl, I dont have it, I want the go 6 then.

Or maybe she was paying off God in advance
thanks, ruru! and here i thought i had tried every combo ... you're my hero today :)
hi, red! and jmc!!!

Thank you for that clue, ruru! :)
Oh no one knows why I have the H name, BR, not even my Mom knows, my Middle name is the profs name, my first name seemed to just "come to her"
Hmmm . . . no hi for me, Pam? :/ I greeted you!

okay, I'm a lurker -- Prenag is a word. DH says I do it all the time.
its hyphenated ;-)
hi spell...
Not when I'm doing it :-)
Hi red
lol spell and hi
Hmmm, it is? To nag someone ahead of time? :P
And hello . . . :)
Hello SpellCheck!How are you? Welcome to the puzzle
That's correct... I nag in anticipation of his behavior (kinda like pre-crime in Minority Report)
to set the stage for nagging (did you get to the grass this week? no? . . . . NAG)
Exactly.. It usually revolves around the trash or compost. And sometimes the cat litter.
Oh, I see . . . that does make sense, actually!
Thanks Min
Fireworks Thx Min I now see your earlier clue,sometimes they stare you in the face.
whoo hoo silver!
Congratulations Silverback on fireworks! Way to go!
prenags get a quick preignore
***Ye Haw*** Silverback...congrats
Thx to all.My icon is only aimed at the grid.lol.
shoots off roman candles from disney for silver!!!!
Preignores tend to result in real nagging. :-) Or prefights
wow are those legal red!
well....i do not know!
maybe you should wait for the real nags and fights spell! lol
See, with Disney so close, if the visibility is right, Some days we see the fireworks....
Fireworks are illegal here in Southern Ireland. !
Shoots off double for Silver then.
Garda are on the way.
Probably a good idea JM
I'll protect you red
Oh no, Shot them off here in Florida, I think everything is legal here....
*pulling down treaty treatises*
Oh thank heavens a peaceful lawyer here...willing to fight for my mistake....
*beaming* that's me!
hello everyone I'm finally here
hi west
hi jmc
Hi westford! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
legal in florida is you are getting rid of rodents or excavating -
I'm good min how are you?
HI Westford, I'm apparently in trouble for shooting off fireworks for silver....
Ahhhh, renny thats why they are legal in Disney!!!!! the rodents!
I thought you were welcoming me red
I have ants does that count ren?
that's right! all rodents! and excavating to get rid of the ants
poor mickey and minnie RIP
you mean Mickey I had a vision of Disney World crawling with rats
Just mickey and Minnies off spring.
the main topic of conversation after Meeting today was how to get rid of ants because the rain has driven them all in the houses here
boric acid.
ants are so industrious though
ich red that is as I recall a poison
supposedly they won't cross a white line
yuppers boric acid just as red said
I use cinnamon which has worked every year until this one
boric acid not poisonous unless you eat it. hi all
they won't cross cinnamon either
hi Owl
or you can break their line with scent
Boric acid is not a poison as far as Iknow.
hi west.
I surround my cat food bowl with it and has ants she never
so it must be they won't cross lines do they carry little picket signs too?
i saw the signs
well most poisons aren't poison unless you ingest them TO
(and hi TO)
hwy owl
hwy??? howz about hey ya owl
signs sign every where a sign blocking all the scenery and blowing my mind
i mean we used it to make eyewash..it is not like a chemical that you may get on your hands and be poisoned with
ren, is it as hot where you are as I am?
do this and don't do that can't you read the signs
jmc you must be getting as much rain as we are
hi ren.
good to know TO I have kept an organic house until the termites
nice breeze this afternoon red - sat outside w/ the puppsters
after I poisoned the house within an inch to kill the termites I went back to organic
anyone got a clue for pe6/21?
yes west
and how is the mezsster?
owl are you watching the next food network star this year?
pe6 = writing instrument + a negative
I am going to download plans for an ark
Back, Jilli - recovering from a browser crash.
Hello, westford! :)

No fun Rennie.
I did I'll write back soon I did find out that I can access it on my iPhone but it's sort of difficult to type

OK, westford - just scrolled down and found it! :)
JC I meant I answered your question here haven't replied to your MySpace note yet
Temple ag5/24 lovers stare = ag***
sometimes the chat goes flying by
Yes, I scrolled back down and found it, westford. :)
It does, indeed . . . ;)
fantastic, sang all their lovely songs and ended with favourite "celia"
thanks for that horse I was just about to ask
me7/40 please
I love celia !! love all their songs had no idea they were doing a reunion tour
ty horsery but no compute :(
JC I have a question my status shows me as single I'm not how do I change that?
astronomers were ag*** lovers ag*** into each others eyes
JC Being fairly new to Babble and I hate to be obvious but have you done television work.
oh, i see - ty
your welcome
To be in a state of staring, Temple - another word for 'stare', with 'a' in front of it, if that helps?
3 nights here in Sydney, don't know where they have been tho
Yes, Silverback.
me7/40 please
Stare, or look . . . to **** fondly, into another's eyes?
G****, rather . . .
a big bomb andree
<< Not the best cluer. :P
me 7 -- prefix meaning a million and 2000 pds
thanks rab
you're as good as any JC
thx west and babble
Lurking fireworks - 'night all - happy Babbling.
Erm, sometimes perhaps . . .
Congrats and good night, MetFan!
Congratulations MetFan on fireworks!Hooray for you
yayayay metfan
bye Met
Yay Met!!
what part of speech is an "erm"?
an exclamation BR!
is it opposite of a lag?
opposite of a lag is a gal
a combination of er and um?
no6/24 please
can i have help with the second he 5, 12. with 16 left I have gone to the list....
no6/24 is a negative prefix + how old you are Andree
then erm must be a sagging arm?
pre7pls?
red he 5/12 red hair dye
he 5: he + double consonant plus vowel redturtlehead
no 6 -- without a length of existance
thx min
pre + what you call some one
he -- a colore
ty!
The pr 7/36 word is before plus na 4/6 72 Temple Owl
yw
thanks min
The pr 7/36 word is before plus na 4/5 72 Temple Owl
thanks BR, I had the Se, why not the He I dunno...
yw
ty red I didn't have the se
So what's the difference between Facebook&Twitter
twitter is more minute to minute
i didn;t have the se either
you have to keep the messages shorter?
ta7?
I learned about twitter on Martha Stewart
no just the idea is more like living Blooms life in Ulysses
ta 7/36 word is like the to 7/36 word 72 Temple Owl.
you actually read Ulysses?
there are 2 ta 7
cats want in bbs
one is same as to 7 with a different second vowel
ty. speed babbling now, must get to nbed
the other is pl ta 6 = people who make leather
3 ta 7
don't have the third one then BR
ta 7/36
So which one do you like better, Facebook or Twitter
ta 7/28: the most of what you get from sitting in sun
I am only on FB because of my HS sunday school class and some extent Babble
ok no one asked me but I think twitter is odd. I am not fond of knowing where people are at eah minute...really
As far as I am concerned you often get tmi on FB even
but twitter has people telling what they are eating, doing, sh***ing, etc.
well ty all for the clues, time to hit the sack!
I found out my son broke up when his skanky girl friend broke up with him on FB
Good night TO.
i liked twitter during hurricane ike since ping kept us posted on her family's well being
morning all :)
fireworks TO?
later owl - sweet zzzzzzzzzzz
Good night TO
hey mrp
gn owl sleep well
Hi mr p
hi ren!
hi mrp
I wrote this once on Facebook:"wondering if anyone really cares what I am doing at this moment". I mean really, do we need to know what people are doing all the time? I did join FB, but wish that I really had not.
true jmc. and I think twitter has its uses, I have a "neighbour" on a blog sit though who blogs her twits and it makes her look like a twit.
hi jmc :)
hi west!
I could see it could be okay in some circumstances it could be useful
Hello mrpresident! How are you? Welcome to the grid
ren has it been around since then?
ta 7 work of the sun + sha ** ** ( fifties group) + bacterium: **em
hi Mr. P night jmc and Temple
hi min :)
ty br :)
hi horse!
bacterium **em? not ***m?
hi harry
hi Harry
hi jm :)
yes west
hi horse :)
lickety's on twitter, stid, ping, me, angel
grand panjandrums get on their high horses
i think we were just keeping up w/ one anotehr since er had a lot of activity going on and were not babbling as frequently
Think that My Space and Facebook should merge and become "MyFace". I guess My Space is obsolete now.
very cute BR
yes it's a quick and easy way to do it I would think
my son and I use texting or our cell phones for that
oh I hope not min I just joined
I have texted twice lol
My Space seems more popular with the younger set in general the tweens.
I text my son every time the Nats win
help with ag 5/16
I do not follow them do you text him often?
pls
I am stuck on that one too
I've tried monkeys and morewords
ag 5/16 word is ag plus the opposite of pas jmcnrick.
Oh my I just saw an ad on TV...that is a medicine that allows you to grow longer eyelashes. my golly, who really needs this!!!
jm it's a type of volcanic rock, minus the first consonant
a + stare or or star look
(pl)
not very! lol but we are on a 4 game streak (haven't check today's ga4)
that's 5/24 bab
no good deed goes unpunished
lava?
good for the Nats then
may i have a clue for the 8 please
keep going jm :)
I DO redturtlehead.My little nieces and nephew have more eyelashes than I do. I practically have nothing!
ag + plural of marjorie main
he 8 -- animal groups and male
agkettles?
rats the Nats lost today
I get it now
Oh too bad JMC, I am sorry.
Minver, I mean,will you die without eyelashes? I think its highly unlikely.
he 8/55 is person who watches over animals renfield.
thank you bab
ty BR
had my last ag in the wrong place
red there are other reasons than you will die if you don't to do something
zookeeper? shepherd?
second one ren
Of course not. I'll probably never take the medicine.
I know, I dont really get the whole boob job thing either....I must admit. I get it but I dont.
However, I DO wish I had more and longer eyelashes.
thanks jmc :)
line your eyes in kohl
Oddly they were advertising it but telling about marks that could come into your eyes that would likely be permanent...
probably got sued
I wish I had a less ethnic Behind.
and people say lawyers aren't useful!
that's scary
Not very endowed in the chest either, but I have no desire for a boob job. Will never enhance my body in any way. I guess I could look worse than I already do
i saw a lday at the dermatologist who had her eyes and lips tatted...all swollen and - can you say allergic?
I wasn't endowed but the kid and time took care of that
Back . . . after taking the pup outside for a while, again!
we are useful aren;t we jmc
I always think about lipo, but then again it seems a bit dangerous...
that's a shame and I bet it wasn't cheap either
be happy with what you have!!!
I will also NEVER get a tattoo either. I hate needles!
Everytime I flop my stomach I think about liposuction
Jmc you can come running with me...its better than Lipo.
wb JC will he go out with the older dog?
Yes - what mrpresident said! ;)
Valerie?
Yes, westford - he will chase her anywhere, going after her tail, usually. :P
I always wanted a small heart tatoo on my left breast
I have seven left, i need to focus.
Yes, westford . . .
I exercise twice a week with wieghts and a mile or so jog
go red go!
I hate the weights, but I keep doing them.
I do strenuous procrastination daily
O I don't think there is anything wrong with dreaming
I will consider jogging when I see a jogger smiling
good for you BR
I smile all the time when running mrP! I promise.
HAHA - yes, why is that something you never see? :P
I smile but I do it on a treadmill at the gym while my sister takes a pilated class.
I really do, and Sara does oo. Now I admit, on a treadmill I do not smile.
I close my eyes and hold on and meditate and jog
i smile on a treadmill casue i can crank down the ac
jmc, you are very very brave to close eyes on the TM.
if I ran on the road I would stop and look at things
Yesterday I discovere dthe worst thing about the treadmill, it only goes up hill, not down....
if I ran in the woods I would stop and look at things
had no idea that ph4 was a word
if I ran on the beach I would stop and look at things
I went away while you were all exercising
the gym on the treadmill there is nothing to look at
lol est did you tire you out?
Where did you go, westford?
I dont stop and look, but sometimes I go back later to see stuff....and take photos.
Anywhere nice? ;)
JC I wondered if she would just take care of him
harry, it is a stupid word created in the hood
I run much harder on a treadmill than on the road
HAHAHA, westford - she tries to avoid him! :P
I knew the slang....but not that it was real
no I sneaked away to warm my coffee and came back to the conversation
sneak sneaked snuck
west so brave to drink coffee at this time of night.
how old is Valerie?
She is nine - nearly ten now.
i need tea and toast... brb
Miss Gilligan would fail you jmc
She doesn't look it, I know - she doesn't seem that age, either. She is still full of energy!
She's a small dog, though . . .
why would miss gilligan fail me?
woo! got all the re words b4 listing!
gj HH
whoo hoo harry!
because you said 'snuck'
gotta cherish the small victories :)
I use walking poles .. great for preventing listing
I like snuck I think it is a great word!
english is a living language
she was a tyrant
I agree
Hmmm . . . monkeys just taught me a new word.
want to share it JC?
I still don't use loan as a verb . . . my mother the English teacher (masters and 46 years of teaching) drubbed that in
You probably have it, westford? It would be a tough one to clue . . .
lend, right not loan.
just the stats please JC
It's the ep4,6 and ep5.14 - which is the plural.
There they are, westford . . .
some were celebrating reaching one million English words this past week
Was typing them before you asked. ;)
3
ty I don't have those yet I hope my monkeys are as talented
goooo red !!!
go red go
gmta JC
2
neologisms abound
or as my looney friend would say 'espn'
Think of the 6th letter of the alphabet phonetically, Westford - followed by a vowel, then pluralised.
Oh, you've found it, westford?
not yet too busy yakking
true BR thus ph4/6
ty JC now I have them
ty JC
bab surely there are more than 1 million?
one of my favorites is "resistentialism"
Good, westford - and jmc. :)

I have been a sperm donor.. but they never went anywhere...lol
trif did you go see your dad today?
Sadly 'tis true in to omany cases

Yes, I did see my dad today west! so I was in your neighborhood!
Ah, that's right, mrp.

think arnold swarzen...ho5 the barbarian
ah, the southern hemisphere gets forgotten ... not enough drama here
I am NOT picking on you lbd...
not such a good day trif weatherwise
I was going to try that and it didn't seem real. I forgot this is Babble. I must suspend reality when typing words.
you would know it if I was..lol
it's okay, either way, it's fun to laugh or groan with you.
ruuster can be a right cock when he is picking
amen, west! I about blew sideways off the road a couple of times! unreal
Can
; )
Can't believe it's the first day of summer!

Erm, like to be spanked, do you, ruru? ;)
not really.. it is a long running joke with Mr. P and myself though
ruru loves a good whipping... and clamps
me7/40 is me**hertz + a very heavy weight Scrabbler
me7, perhaps...really really big and heavy, scrabs. the bomb was a me*****
how about no6/24 please? nodding off here and would like to finish first
but then.. maybe I have never had the right spanker..
TY, Min & dawg
not old is the no 6
no 6/24: negative prefix plus how old you are Dorens
add General electric to the end of the no4.4, dorens
Ooh, mrp - sounds kinky! ;)
you best not be dissing my spanking techniques ruru... I know how to find you!
Whips and clips and clamps and chains?
clamps? like nipple clamps?
but who gets the feather?
and silk and leather and strawberries... I am a lady!
pe6 please?
chips, dips, chains whips
Yes - those would be the ones, ruru! :P

Awww, sorry to hear it, ruru. :/
Oh no!The P words reminds me of George Bush Senior

Congratulations Dorens on fireworks! Hooray for you
bye dorens...
whoooo hooooo DORENS!! sweet sleeps!
Goodbye Dorens! I will see you tomorrow in the chat!
i'm doing well. tired, and getting ready for bed.
prenag is a word!!... it is the whinging before the nagging
re6 please?
lol mrp
re + Scrabber is yours
The re 6/21 word is re plus an na 4/5 word Scrabbler
re+ what you are called by
Another complained about it not being a word before
TY, I have pr7 and should have seen re6
Um, Scrabbler, I meant
pre nag only applies to MIL's
scrabber is better than scabber jellen..
Ruru, are you married?
yes
I am really stuck, on a stupid 4-letter word! :(
True, ruru
The first sa4,4 - how can I not find it? :/
Are you happily married, Ruru? And any kids?
why do you ask scrabs?
sa 4= a story
tis a long sad story, JC
yes happily married .. no kids
That sa 4/4 word is sa plus half of baby talk J.C.
furbabies are kids!
I know that your past was a struggle and I do wish happiness for you for the rest of your life. You deserve it.
Thanks Jellen - but it's the first sa4,4 I need, not the sa4,6 . . .
That is the first...
Yes, ruru - ditto to what Scrabbler just said!
oh.. thanks scrabs that is really sweet
The first sa4,4 Jellen - not the sa4,6 . . .
The next two word begin the same...
oh no, 178 words to go, !! !! !!
I already have the one you clued, thank you. :)
sa 4:Looking for this word may be driving you insa**.
Hi, Gwen!
.. time to walk the doggy.. be back in a bit ...
Hello Boogk Doctor Gwen! I am here to clue if needed
Oh my god!!! How could I NOT see that??? :P
Thank you, Minveryork! Feel really sheepish now . . .
yw
to be in your right mind, JC...unlike many others here who are in****
Ooooh, I'm really not paying attention...sorry!
That's how tired I am, at just gone half 3 in the am! :/
With kids in my practice, Ruru, I encourage them to create the life they want and to escape from bad childhoods. It is nice when a good life can follow a bad childhood.
It certainly is, Scrabbler . . .
ergh, JC! that's what time i was getting up this morning!
God, that's early, lbdawger?!
It has for me.. It is amazing I turned out okay
Uno, finally. I never thought I would finish this grid.
or late in your case!
Yay, Scrabbler!!!
go scrabs!
still need 134, ack! lol
Go Scrabler go!
me too, Ruru. There is an interesting book called "The Resilient Self" by Steve Wolin, about the aspects that create resilience
you can do it, Gwen!
All done!
Congratulations Scrabbler on fireworks!Good for you
whooooo hoooooo SCRABS!!!
Hello, Gwen! :)
TY all for clues along the way!

(((hugs LBD)))
Hi, stid!
Stidmama!!! :)
Hi DR, Hi Stiddy!
Good luck, DR. Use the list early. It helps a lot.
Hello stidmama! How are you doing? Welcome to grid!
i am panicked about tomorrow... but prepared. does that make ANY sense?
Hi Stid. Your MIL called me yest.
Hi, DR!
hi stid and lbd
Panicked for what, Stid?
ok thanks!
I just feel asleep so I am going to bed
What's tomorrow?
Jellen!!! It has been MONTHS !!! How are you
that's nice Scrabs -- they just called us a little bit ago!
Hello Dr1965!How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
Do tell about tomorrow, stid!
Hi Jmc! Panicked and scared? about what, stid?
Goodbye jmcnrick! I will see you tomorrow in the log!
tomorrow i start the insane 5-week push for the summer. Classes AND work AND getting the house ready for our guest AND kid stuff.
I'm hanging in here, DR!
Sweet sleep, JMC
zzzzzzzzzzzzzz*poof*
I was worried Jellen!
But I have read a bit in all (but one) of the books that are needed, and a little ahead in each already, so at least I won't be clueless
Hi Stid, MIn, Dawger, etc...
sweet dreams jmc
Sounds like you need to escape and just BABBLE Stid!
stid, you will be playing scrabble during all this? if so you crazy LOL
Bye, jmc
hello Jellen! ((hugs)) what's with all the un-potlatching you were doing? *nosy mama look*
You'll do fine, Stid. although, i have a feeling we wont be seeing much of you.
ack, i mean babble (brain is half asleep today)
I will be babbling, Gwen, but only because that is my one release valve. Everything else has gone: art, music, garden.
Oh my god, stidmama - I wish you lots of luck and energy!!!
What's un-potlatching?
Stid, you know enough about time management, and your boys can be independent except for driving.
potlatch is the Pacific Northwest native way of establishing prestige: give away lots of gifts at various occasions. It used to impoverish the givers (to European eyes) but greatly enhanced their social standing, which was more important in their culture.
no points for smeg? awwwwwww
The last sa4,4 anyone, please?
LOL, I tried that too, gwen!
LOL i thought the same, Gwen!
Feel stupid again, asking for a clue for a 4-letter word, but just can't find anything! :/
to have your fill, JC
Ahh...we have an awful lot of stuff in the house and garage, 'tis true...And we keep going to auctions!
last sa 4: s + past tense consume food
An sa 4/4 word is s plus what I did at dinner time J.C.
hm. I think I know your problem jellen... *hides car keys and checkbook so no more auctions*
Oh stupid me - thank you, stidmama!
Evening all.
And Minveryork!

Off to bed for me. I am exhausted after a 3 hr paddle today. See everyone tomorrow!
