An American Elegy was composed by Frank Ticheli...when I heard it he was conducting the Azusa Pacific College orchestra...I hosted the solo trumpet player and another trumpeter afterward on their cross country tour...it was especially moving piece and the kids were great....

5:44 am

Sally the ch8 does it bulid off the not honest ch5 or rib area ch5?.

6:47 am

you will get it no problems

6:48 am

ok..you put against a wall ch*** to see how tall they have grown + have you got your shopping **** to see what you need

peri, start with the ch 5/14 which means a diagram. Then the ch 7/40 is the pt of someone who makes such, then the ch 8/50 sounds like someone who makes such, (but isn't in fact), then the plural for the 9.

6:49 am

you put your child*

Volley did a good job of compiling lists of individual letters, you'll find them if you scroll back. I don't think anyone has compiled a complete list in one place. We'll have to work for our points!

7:00 am

I have 131 to find, but I've enjoyed it so far.

7:01 am

Yes, it's a reasonable grid, we've seen a lot worse.

7:01 am

7:24 am

I put a list in my profile .. haven't proofed for errs yet

7:24 am

I suppose if you think of the type of poem or lament as written by Grey in a country churchyard, make it the one who writes and the action of writing, if that makes sense.

7:24 am

morning BabRab

7:25 am

Good morning BR. You've been industrious.

7:25 am

I had the el from your earlier clue but i like this one better, Haz

7:25 am

Hi BR, great icon

7:31 am

7:31 am

Ah, I am 9:30. I have already finished a book today (to be fair, it was only the last 70 pages) and am now daunted by the prospect of babble.

7:31 am

*zzzzz...coffee...zzzzz*

7:32 am

Hi Lori

7:32 am

Mais oui, a list in your profile. Did bi5 make YOU think of black Books?

7:32 am

Haz, Lori, Uni, Annie, Lynxx wow hello to all babblers!

Hi FM!!!!

Hello lady FM

Great! Apologies again for taking so long to reply but good to see you here, Karys.

7:33 am

she's awake! hi Judi

7:33 am

Hello FM! Nice to see you.

7:34 am

The e-mail skills of babblers can be a bit lax.

7:34 am

so many friendly faces all at the same time!

7:34 am

It was an effort, but I knew the grid was calling me.

7:34 am

FM! ***I <3 Black Books***

7:34 am

*Puts on a dour face*

7:34 am

Oh good. Judi's speaking in sentences now.

7:35 am

I'd better get some food, BBL perhaps

7:35 am

***applies snarly faced, tantrum-ish child look***

7:35 am

later, lynxxxie

7:35 am

Silly me. Was I talking in my sleep again?

7:35 am

Get that dour face off right now, Uni. It doesn't suit you.

7:35 am

No tantrums here, Lori. We've all got to smile nicely, we've got a nice big grid today!

7:35 am

Bye Lynx!

7:35 am

Look at Lori. I am only copying my mother.

7:36 am

Bye Lynxxx!

Hi fellow babblers!

7:36 am

You were talking, Judi, not making much sense, but you're all better now.

7:36 am

We? Not me, I'm done. It's no longer my problem, er I eman grid.

Nice big grid today, as compared to yesterday!

7:37 am

You must have been working like fury behind the scenes, Lori. No complaints or anything.

7:37 am

Hello beach.

7:37 am

hi beach

7:37 am

Once a year I decide to not complain. today was the day, so revel in the moment.

7:37 am

That is because there are no re words. She must have been pleasant for once.

7:37 am

hi all

7:38 am

A red letter day. No complaints from Lori. I will mark it in the calendar. Does it fall on the same day every year or must we wait for the mood to strike?

7:38 am

Hello Boo.

Good Morning Babblers :)

7:39 am

It's a mood thing Haz, all very random. Once a year, just hard to say what day though.

7:39 am

Good morning Nono!

7:39 am

Hi boo and Nono

7:39 am

Good morning Nono.

7:39 am

when I saw this grid, I felt like yesterday's grid kind of exploded into this one.

7:39 am

Well, glad that today is the day.

7:39 am

Mornin' Boo, Nono

7:44 am

If there isn't a list posted yet (somewhere, anywhere) somebody who remembers their Bab Anon login (unlike me) can copy it from my profile and throw it in. I feel like whackin' some zombies in a game that Uni forced me to become addicted to.

7:45 am

nono, an insertion

Thanks Lori for the list I'll see if i can post it at bab anon

thanks annie

7:46 am

wtg Lori and thanks for the list!

7:46 am

You mean you'd rather whack zombies than knuckle down to housework?

7:47 am

House what?

7:47 am

It's shockingly fun...

Hi does anyone know if there is alist posted today on Babblers Anon since there is no Licketty.

7:47 am

Don't you dare try to convert any more of us, Uni.

7:48 am

there goes Haz speaking on tounges again!

7:48 am

Hey, I introduced her to babble - that didn't work out too badly

7:48 am

It's a therapeutic game. Makes me forget all about the h word I'm not doing.

7:48 am

sandie, Lori has one in her profile that I think Nono is throwing in babanon.

7:49 am

Well, that's true, but you've got to be discriminating in your addictions.

Oh thanks for that. I'll have a look.

list posted to Bab Anon now

7:49 am

My older daughter does this farming thing in facebook. And a virtual restaurant. We're so proud.

7:51 am

7:53 am

Okay, lunch time. Back later.

Of course, he falls asleep if he sits anywhere for five minutes (except for eating) so it doesn't mean much.

8:35 am

Wish I could remember BR!

8:35 am

I fall asleep when my son's at the wheel so I don't have to watch!

Keep going!

9:19 am

Once again, the E's are keeping me from NBT...I really don't do well with vowels!

9:20 am

Ditto, car.ee. Vowels suck.

9:21 am

I just really have trouble with them...now it is my goal everyday to defeat the vowels!

car there is a slimey snake like fish

9:28 am

hah, if the price were right...

9:28 am

You guys are awesome...but none of those came from the 2 BT I have left! Figures!

9:28 am

Off we go - that's all you'd need, a failing football team and an expectant fan base!

9:28 am

Ty for the ec clue, Haz.

9:28 am

en8 and en9 - en plus a product made from grass to feed to cattle in the winter.

9:29 am

Made from grass? Weed?

9:30 am

2 months should give you plenty of time for inspiration.

9:30 am

haz... can you tell me what the product made from grass starts with?

9:30 am

for us city folks?

9:30 am

We make it over here from grass.... first three letters of a metal (not gold) plus how old you are.

9:30 am

ah... ok... never would have known that one, LOL.

9:31 am

New word for me! TY Haz!

9:31 am

new words for me -- thanks haz!

9:31 am

Relative to the si4/7, mom. Tall cylindrical farm structure used for storage of grain...

9:31 am

Who says that babble isn't educational? Over here, the young farmers clubs have competitions in judging the quality of the stuff.

9:32 am

thanks Judi... had that one... but not Haz's si word, LOL!

9:32 am

Like I said, city folk!

9:32 am

Curious, Haz. I should think the cows would be the better judges.

9:32 am

Farmers here no longer make hay while the sun shines. It's progress, I suppose.

9:32 am

Okay, off I go - have a good day!

9:32 am

phantom: bistro

9:32 am

bye Haz...

11:59 am

si 6/24 - start of where you store grain + how many years old you are

11:59 am

is this the same shoulder you had work on earlier this year, nrkii?

12:00 pm

in September I fell on my shoulder and ended up with a torn rotator cuff -- they told me then that the injury was odd for a fall... two weeks ago I was out raking and the next day ended up with a separated shoulder -- they told me THAT was consistent with a fall!

12:00 pm

same shoulder

12:00 pm

different injury

12:00 pm

I'm going for more PT, and then seeing my surgeon in 4 weeks, at which point he has a lot of "splainin to do"

12:01 pm

bummer big time!!!!!

12:02 pm

shoulders are the worst... mine bug me all the time,... I feel your pain

12:03 pm

I'm just mystified how this happened from raking... from what I've read, this injury is what hockey and football players get when they have big impact directly on their shoulders (which is what I had in September, but not recently)

Not sure of the vista version, but you should be able to customize your toolbars and that should be one of the choices for the edit toolbar ..

4:37 pm

It doesn't have view>toolbars>customize or it doesn't exist as a choice?

5:09 pm

5:09 pm

5:09 pm

I have 160 words left to go! :-D

5:10 pm

lucky you Nef, I barely started this last night, then flew home, just starting again, 212 to go!

5:11 pm

I started about 3 hours ago; was on the phone for a while but not playing then. I had a HUGE bunch of phantoms appear after I'd found the 1st 100 words.

5:12 pm

hello all, 59 left here

5:12 pm

and only have 2 blacked out tiles so far. :(

5:12 pm

hello briefly -- I have 167 left but errands to do -- ty flosey for the ac6 and welcome home!

5:12 pm

I have 80 left

5:12 pm

Hi again peri

5:13 pm

HI gang

5:13 pm

thanks Jilli - just til Sunday but it is Heaven to be back here

5:13 pm

still needed there

5:13 pm

344 words without Lickety is quite a hurdle

5:13 pm

cute baby flosey! Hi jilli and DR

5:13 pm

thanks Nef, new grandson

5:14 pm

are they doing better Flosey- especially you daughter?

5:14 pm

I've found the list in BabAnon

5:14 pm

sure is a huge hurdle jilli good for you

5:15 pm

jilli, someone said clues are up over on babanon; I have uni's profile which she has the list on

5:15 pm

doubt if I'll finish -- not going to miss a nice swim this afternoon!

5:15 pm

baby has always been a real gem and healthy - daughter is coming along very nicely - we just have to make sure she doesn't overdo, or too soon

5:15 pm

swim sounds great jill

5:16 pm

my first grandchild is a boy too and he's now 10 weeks old

5:16 pm

I understand that. I am relieved that they are both doing well

5:16 pm

Nef, I saw that too -- I find the babanon list easier to arrange so it fits on the screen over where Lickety's usually is (in BabbleExpert)

5:16 pm

did your dtr have problems?

5:16 pm

thanks DR, I really appreciate all the concern I've received here in babble

5:17 pm

well, must dash and do the errands -- back later

5:17 pm

Bye Jilli

5:18 pm

yes Nef, preg. went very well, labour much too long and emerg. C section - then another emerg. surgery but she's coming along very nicely

5:19 pm

sorry to hear she had problems flosey. Sending out healing thoughts to her now.

5:25 pm

hi all

5:26 pm

5:27 pm

281 left

5:28 pm

flosey sorry to hear of your daughters troubles

5:28 pm

I will hold her in the Light

5:29 pm

what is your conference on jmc?

5:29 pm

stepped away for a minute, thanks Nef

5:30 pm

it is on learning how to provide truth in military recruiting since the military doesn't

5:30 pm

and jmc, many thanks

5:30 pm

I am leading three workshops

5:31 pm

{{{flosey}}}

5:31 pm

and avoiding other speakers?

5:32 pm

well I wanted my white male staff person to come because I have to contend with Mother in the hospital but the conference needed to keep their PC in Line

5:32 pm

so as the woman I got to come

5:33 pm

I find PC a tiresome aspect of my job

5:34 pm

I can imagine. What sort of group is attending this convention?

5:34 pm

lots of earnest young people but also many people who have been at this for 30+ years and whom I respect

5:35 pm

I will be gl4 to see some of them

5:35 pm

and a handful of the usual possers

5:37 pm

earnest young people can wear on a person after a while I find....

5:38 pm

firewords

5:38 pm

well part of me responds to their sincerity and energy -- but I find in groups of more than 2 or 4 if becomes more of a feeding frenzy than anything

5:38 pm

nowhere near the si's yet

5:47 pm

suggestions??

wow, last night was billy joel and elton john concert

5:48 pm

jmc - go the The Green Mill - historic jazz spot on Broadway - it is a ways from the mag mile but is phenomenal jazz, loaded with atmosphere

5:48 pm

the one si 5/10 I have is a math diagram

have you been to Navy Pier?

5:48 pm

please tell me there are only 2 gh words

5:48 pm

jmc did you go up to the Willis Tower?

5:48 pm

or a waveform

5:48 pm

it is so cool b/c the audience is everything from college kids to old couples in black and hats

NOOOOOOOOOOO to Willis Tower, how stupid

5:48 pm

just got here this time Mary -- but no I have not been in the WIllis Tower

5:49 pm

jmc, there are only 3 (one is a pl)

5:49 pm

I wouldn't go either

5:49 pm

and really good jazz... and cocktails, nice bartenders - no food though so eat first

5:49 pm

now now esprit different people have different tastes

I meant the name change!

5:49 pm

if you do not like it, I'll pick up your tab ; )

they could change statue of liberty to torch lady or something

5:50 pm

lol kje I would have to come to Texas to get it!

5:50 pm

agree esprit still call it Sears tower

5:50 pm

nah - I'll mail it - but if you come to texas i'll pay it in dinner and drinks

5:50 pm

everyone will

5:50 pm

I am waiting for a sailor to come pick me up for supper so where is the jazz place

look at all the written stuff they would have to change

5:51 pm

4802 north broadway

is the fleet in jmn?

5:51 pm

cool bar, jmc - dates all the way back to post prohibition time.... walls are covered with all the freats who have played there

5:51 pm

ooo th e sears tower? I did that years ago. WHat's with the Willis Tower stuff?

they want to change the name from Sears to Willis

5:52 pm

I am downtown in the loop -- how does that jive?

5:52 pm

ol'e blue eyes himself in town ;-)

it's a 20 min taxi ride

5:52 pm

jmc - hop in a cab and go....

5:53 pm

which direction? maybe I will get him to take me to a restaurant near by

north of you

5:53 pm

that is what we did, i heard about this place by eavesdropping on a couple at a restaurant one night and they were saying it was theirfave club in chicago - so my friend and i walked outside, i googled the address on my iphone, caught a cab, and went

5:53 pm

hmmm.... not sure about restaurants nearby - LOL - interesting neighborhood

5:54 pm

if you are in the loop - go to blackbird

that's Uptown, very mixed

5:54 pm

http://www.blackbirdrestaurant.com/

blackbird is not near your jazz club

it is also very expensive and doubt if you would get in without reservation

5:55 pm

jmc - NORTH broadway - therefore, it is NORTH

5:55 pm

blackbird is not near the jazz club, you can call and get reservation - they do pretty well with early seatings - and moderately expensive and worth every penny

5:56 pm

then catch cab to jazz club

5:56 pm

so what is the name of this club? and is it the kind of place where they are all over you like white on rice if you sneeze?

5:57 pm

there is the chicago jazz showcase which is closer to the loop, but i didn't think it was as good... though still good if you want to do that... but the showcase had a big cover charge, greenmill was cheap

5:57 pm

greenmill --I think I went there last time I was here

5:57 pm

the club is The Green Mill - and it is casual... it is not a touristy place at all, and you may have to stand if you show up after 1030

5:58 pm

great music but a lot of attitude

5:58 pm

well since it looks like I am eating at 7 10:30 shouldn't be a problem

5:58 pm

how hard would it be to catch a cab back?

5:59 pm

not at all... we walked out the door about 1230, waved, and cab stopped

5:59 pm

wow, i didn't get attitude at all.... you are just being senstive - chicago up and get a shell, jmc!!! ; )

6:00 pm

that's me all sensitive!

6:01 pm

*puts helmet on*

6:01 pm

*bonk*

6:01 pm

so no one is suggesting the blue man group?

I love Blue Man

it's a lot of fun

6:02 pm

ac 5/12?

6:03 pm

6:03 pm

6:03 pm

my great grandmother in law used to own the land where the navy pier is

6:03 pm

ty

6:04 pm

maybe it was great great -- no the land before the pier

6:05 pm

1st ag5/14?

there is no lang, it's a pier built on the lake

6:05 pm

sorry I am being imprese with my husbands family lore -- the land from which the pier juts out

ah

6:06 pm

you can be sexist racist or ag***

that woulda been worth a nice chunk of change

6:06 pm

what do I know? it isn't even my own family lore

6:06 pm

is that the 1st? i was thinking it was the second

Lake Point Tower is currently the very easternmost building in Chicago

6:07 pm

6:32 pm

6:33 pm

6:34 pm

I was very impressed at your knowledge for such an old lady!!!

9:09 pm

39 left..almost asleep now.

Oh bad news,TO. I ratheradmired him.

9:10 pm

To - I know his name and I can see his face but, for the life of me, I can't remember what I saw him in.

9:10 pm

What a name to go through life with, though!

journalist, jacs. in the true sense of the word.

9:11 pm

now he made more of an impact in the US than Michael Jackson but will get none of those accolades

jacs: he is a legend here. the name seems entirely natural to us.

9:12 pm

Got him.

bye all

9:13 pm

bye TOwl

9:13 pm

Another name that grabbd m was the name of the man who rang me from Canada to check up on my ex bro-in-laws credentials to go from being a UK Bobby to a Canadian policeman, Wayne Lauinger.

9:14 pm

You do get some exotic names over there in 'the States'.

would it be soterrible to quit this thing?

9:14 pm

red - you can quit or play, your choice. It's not a competition.

In deed,Ijust feelthat since I started, I should finish.

9:15 pm

it's funny really, I never thought of "walter cronkite" as a particularly funny name...I suppose he was always so dignified....

9:15 pm

Wellm it is... but isn't really. LOL.

Agreed trif, but...itsa household name here.

9:16 pm

of course you can quit red we are not addicted

9:16 pm

I have 19 ch- words. is that all of them?

9:16 pm

But, with that name, he does sound like he should be in the cast of 'The Flntstones'.

Jacula, thats sacreligious to say that!

9:17 pm

Yes, Trif.

Crokite in the Flinstones!

9:17 pm

yes tri

9:17 pm

Sorry, Red, but that's the UK vote. LOL.

9:17 pm

Walter Cronkite used to always end his news with "and that's the way it is"

9:17 pm

how many ca words, please?

9:18 pm

The NAME not the MAN!

Jacs, if you saw his newscasts, you'd change your mind, a very serious dignified man.

9:18 pm

2 x ca worda, Trif.

9:18 pm

thank you jac. so it's a ce I am missing then....

9:19 pm

Red- serious and dignified does not preclude being in the Flintstones.

Oh I think it does!

9:20 pm

Prob ce4/5 - shit removal system, Trif. ce + double consonant.

9:20 pm

nope, have that. lovely clue though, thanks!!! lol

9:20 pm

Walter Cronkite was such a serious but kind man. I think that when I was young he seemed almost god-like...

9:20 pm

Maybe you view the cartoon somewhat differntly to me, rif.

9:20 pm

have 6 ce4s - is that right, please?

9:21 pm

Yes, Trif.

9:21 pm

2 ce5s

9:22 pm

Hmm, 'Godlike' isn't a term I'd give to any commentators or newsmen.

9:23 pm

3 x ce5, trif.

9:23 pm

whoo, thanks jac! have to suss one out then.

9:23 pm

9:28 pm

Trifi, I had to go look it up. I knew it was about the vietNam war; he reported at one point that he thought it was "unwinnable" and Pres. Johnson felt that the country had turned against him and the war at that point

ok ty. got a friend request from that name

9:29 pm

I get a bit worried when I go through my old e-mails and don't see my friends who are in their 60th, 70th and more years on here in a while.

9:41 pm

hey ocean bluff how are you?

hi loribear im doing phantom

9:42 pm

That reminds me of the story Beloved told me about his fiancee ordering a Roly Poly Gram for their engagement party. What turned up was Tarzan and Jasne. I've seen a pic of him his mother has of him biting the garter off Jane's thigh.
