got both 9's tx to clues
I have an or4/5 but it doesn't come from the bottom O. Can anyone help?
jilli - you can take all your savings and give them to someone to redesign your bathroom, ** ** it yourself
almost sounds like someone barking out or**** but change the second vowel to another
I have that, just, but it doesn't come from the bottom O
the elusive o is or 5/12 (plural of or 4) anagram of what you enter when going into a house / room (dart's earlier clue)
plural, jilli
does the plural
to plural you have to use the bottom o
aahhh -- thanks! NBT!

anyone have any more than 22 se's so far?
only one si 4/4 just
22 here
only have 19 se's so far
but you said there were 2 si's, right?
i only have 1 si
only 1 that I know of; and 11 so's
another st
Thanks for all the help. Can someone give me the counts onthe O words? Please.
oh copied your s list said there were 2 I must be nuts
so sorry just; perhaps I screwed up
have 14 st's so far
oa 5, 5, 5, 4 od 4; og 4; og 5; or 5, 6, 6, 4, 5, 4, 5, 4
Dee can you copy and paster all your s's so far as you did with the g's pretty please?
hang on just ... trying to find my last s first...
do you paste them out of bab exp.?
Morning all, how many today please??
no, I copy and paste into notepad; then delete all the extra letters... which is why it takes me so long
or just plain babble dart...doesn't it show you your list under my word list?
toooo many
314
wouldnt it paste the whole word tho?
TY VM vashongin
when lickety hasn't posted I just play in the reg babble sight and don't even open up expert
ohh right blush lol eek
i dont have it..not sure what it looks like
where do you copy and paste from dee? expert?
don't have expert... copy from my word list
so how do you not copy the whole word itself?
if you copy into excel, you can convert text to table by fixed width, and do just the first two letters. then get rid of the extra column
it does, just, then I have to delete the extra letters from each word
ooo didn't realize that dee ...that's a job!
not sure my puter memory is large enough to have babble open, morewords, babble chat...
lol
no prob just... still looking for the one last s grrr
plus excel
think im down to one s..not sure which tho
so now your efforts are really extra appreciated...you don't have to do that then...
hang on and I'll list what I have... please just note one is missing...

Bye Volley.
night dee
I have the re6/8 combo of putting someone back in the chair. May I have a clue for the other 6/8 combo?
Think in terms of where birds live.
Haz - thanks and pass the fish over here - we have that so often.
No problem.
Thanks...4 straight off without even looking at the grid. Hello all.
Hi lyn
Good evening lynxxx. It's nice when that happens, isn't it?
It's a nice grid, not that I've finished yet, but the words flow.
I spot the name of someone who should have been elected the US President a few years ago...
You're not suggesting that there's a flaw in the American electoral system?
Poor Al may not have made it to the White House, but he's been used so many times in babble to clue words.
how Haz?
If you want to indicate 'al' on the ending of a word, then you make reference to Mr Go4/6.
aah...I see!
and he seems to be much more respected for his "Inconvenient Truth". Before that I only ever heard his name used mockingly
seems every cloud has a silver lining
That's true, lynxxx. I don't think he ever got quite the same derision as Dan Quayle, but he wasn't that well regarded before the film.
just realised the whole name is there, how odd
Which gives me al5/14, not quite the whole name - thanks!
lol Thanks!
Finally finished this thing. Anyone need any clues?
Well done Dianne. I'm still working my way through it, thanks.
Congrats Dianne! not for me thanks, just started
clues are up
Yes, Lickety announced it a whle ago. There was a tidal wave of gratitude and relief. I'll be using them eventually!
fair enough, guess i was too submerged in the grid! lol
BBL in an hour - Dr Who is on
See you later, lynxxx. I'm going to take a break as well. Bye for now.
ea 6 24 please?
Plural 'yer 5 Sudo
wow... brain fart thank you!
Hello Lori. Came back early, Dr Who was a repeat. Boohoo
G'd Morning Babblers. Can't believe there's 314 words in those letters over there. <--------
Mornin' Lynx. Bummer.
looks okay though
FM - your favorite is here!
Her favorite what?
greek god - but it didn't flush her out
lol, isn't he everybody's favorite Greek God?
She's cagey. We need better bait!
Yes...but FM even had a special dance - complete with tunic!
ROFL @ both of you!
Ahh yes, the beloved tunic, and folksy dancing. WHat a sight for sore eyes that would be. If only she'd come out to play.....
You did it Lynx! Man, are you good. :)
I'm not here amfinishing off 4000 lines of spreadsheet but should be back to 'normal' tomorrow :)
Mornin' FM!
oh....hi FM....fancy seeing you!
yeah right lynxxx ;)
Well you look like you're here, and just a hint, your Romulan cloaking device isn't working.
probably find tomorrows grid will be tiny as I will have time for it. Just on a coffe break and give my eyes a rest for 5 mins.
Work...you can't knock that. Have fun FM
Yah, stay and pwaaaay wiff us. ***pouty face***
awe Lori I will play tomorrow, honest!
Toodles, as the client clock it ticking, hugs and have fun.
Tomorrow never comes. You're always working it seems. I'll grow up someday, and you'll have missed the whole thing. ***enhanced pouty face***
Wow, I just got an 8&9 !
Yea for Lynx! Nice job. Have a good one FM. ***hugs***

bye FM
hi everyone
hi Andree
or 5 12 please?
ok never mind
sorry brain fart again...
today grannyrose got back from her cruise and mrp and i spent the day with her[ and her hubby]
now they are on a plane back to melbourne
I won't even ask if they had a good time...I am sure they did. They must have loved you 2 showing them your Sydney
G'd Mornin' Andree
we went to brooklyn and had the fabulous seafood platter, spent the morning over their trip pics
Brooklyn - is that a restaurant or a suburb? seafood platter sounds great !!
a suburb on pittwater, very picturesque
its so quiet at this time on babble isn't it
I`m here, just trying to get some words done, before doing some house work..lol
Hello again, back for some more words.
wb Haz, hi Zooz
teen
poo..pb for me..sorry
G'd Morning Hazaurus! zooz
Good Morning :)
Morning all :-)
Good morning all
Hey ho Lori. Glad to see lots of re words, aren't you?
Hello Eva and Aquiul.
and de's....how could it get any better?
What are you talking about Haz? ***first stage is denial***
hi haz
hi Eva
hi lynxxx
Mornin' Ehva, Aqiul
goiong to give up soon and go for a walk
I really am bad at this game :P I get about 50-60% of the words
that's not bad at all aqiui
hello to you all
That's a pretty good start.
You people are too kind :)
hi Aqiul - it gets (marginally) better the more you play, took me months to finish a grid
the only thing that's important is to enjoy it
Many of the words aren't in common usage and we only know them because we've been playing for a while.
and then Haz introduced me to Morewords
It's not an easy game when you start out. Or a couple years later for that matter....
Months! :) I guess its worth it since i enjoy it :)
*Smug*
Oh yea I saw morewords too
does anyone have a clue for the de 8&9 combo (if it is a combo)?
It took me a long time to finish a grid as well, but that was in the days before people produced lists of second letters etc.
de8/55 - de plus first letter of the pirate's Jolly flag, running into what keeps the garden secure.
I have one de8/45 but it can't be pluralized
And de9 adds a letter to the end.
it was haz introduced me to morewords too
Or, de plus the jolly flag, ending in consumed food.
thanks guys!
TY Haz - and Eva for asking
Yes, I am on commission from morewords, although the annual cheque is slow in showing up. It's a great resource.
morewords???? morewords???? Tell me more (words)
You're welcome!
Hahah :)
www.morewords.com It may just be the best thing since sliced bread.
quick haz another recruit
You don't know Soodle !!!!! Haz - you are falling down
I know - the rest of you keep your mitts off. That commission's mine.
***Haz awaits here cheque for morewords promotion***
Using morewords, you type in letters you know, leave dashes for those you don't, hey presto, a list of likely words.
I cant believe that I have been struggling, drowning, tearing my hair out etc etc, when such a little goldmine was out there. Aaaargh
And www.a2zwordfinder.com is another resource - I don't use it so often but is also useful.
Have I told you lately about PayPal, your online payment friend?
LOL
***Haz is absolutely shameless***
I do apologise, Soodle. You thought we were all wordsmiths of international renown, didn't you?
Now I don't feel quite as foolish!!!!!
We all start somewhere! :D
There are those geniuses who can look at the grid, see every word within 10 seconds and rewire a house all at the same time. Then there's the rest of us who use every resource possible.
back later
OMG! I just tried it. It works!!! i nearly feel like fireworks already. lol
Lori lies somewhere in the middle.
Isn't it great?
Laters Andree.
Bye Andree, nice to see you again.
More like "Lori lies". I'm a Dictionary gal from waaaay back. No buttons and dashes and new fangled gizmos for me.
morewords is great for words that you just don't know.
See - we've introduced you to another way of playing Babble - sans Lickety, sans Morewords - or with the lot! how nice are we
bye Andree
You guys are letting all the secrets out of the closet... :)
That's the joy of it, as lynxxx says. You have your choice of how you want to play.
Have we all swallowed the truth drug by accident?
While we're at it, I was the second person on the grassy knoll.
I thought I recognised you from behind the puff of smoke.
and we haven't even pushed Expert yet
BBL off to eat
I think i wll leave morewords to the very very last resort. I can see myself getting very lazy, using it willy nilly. So - Note to Self....."LAST RESORT"
I know! Enjoy your meal, lynxxx, sorry Dr Who was a disappointment.
Laters Lynx.
Yes, last resort only, Soodle, after all other measures have failed. But it's nice to know it's there.
I've a room booked at the Last Resort. :p
Why isn't gooder a word? Grammar don't matter anyways....
Because there's another word that's better...
More gooder? Betterer?
Getting close.
*** ducks ***
*** was that a shoe? ***
I'm a rubbish shot.
That bodes well for me then.
***removes helmet***
Never let your guard down.
***puts helmet back on***
Lori - meet me in the Last Chance Saloon when you arrive at the Last Resort. We'll toast each other
Will do Soodle.
How will you recognise each other?
the look of haunted desperation.................
Well, I'll be the one with the helmet on.
And the dictionary under the arm, Lori?
Very worn out Dictionaries. Very, very tattered.
And, naturally, Soodle will have leprechauns playing at her feet and rainbows will be bouncing off pots of gold.
More likely to be wearing a straight-jacket, and accompanied by men in white coats!!
Ah, straight from the Home for the Bewildered.
Yup - up to 100gms of valium now!
good morning....
It's a wonder you can find words at all.
Good morning carlee.
Haz...have u got george under the stairs again?????
No, he's not here at the minute. I've no doubt he will return when he needs a bolthole away from the attentions of the press and those mad women who stalk him.
My understairs cupboard is always ready for him, he knows that.
Mornin' carlee
OOOhhh, a giant grid today. Good morning/day to all.
ok..just checking..I see co mments about straight jackets...and..well..the mind runs with it
hi there scrabs..lorip <tackle hug>
Good morning Scrabbler (nobody mention George now Scrabbler's here, we don't want to prolong her delusions)
George is upstairs here, showering, Hazel.
*prolonging
Of course he is, Scrabbler. Where else would he be?
too late haz
(Note the gentle tone. It doesn't do to argue with the delusional)
Then we will go for a walk through the woods, looking out for the black bear that was recently seen up here.
From her padded cell, she wonders who George is?
TY for your gentleness, Hazel. Do not challenge my reality.
Yes, that black bear again. I'm sure George will know what to do.
George Clooney. Scrabbler thinks he's her fiance.
It's sad really. She's a doctor and everything but these things strike down the most unlikely people.
but in truth he lives under haz's staircase
Of course he is.
The saddest thing is that all babblers know that George lives under my staircase. He enjoys the solitude.
so..what is new in babbleland..having been away.....i'm out of th eloop ( if I was ever in the loop that is)
And the darkness and mildew.
Scrabbler! I will fight you for him. I will fight you with one hand behind my back. I will fight you with one hand behind my back and standing on one leg. I will fight to the end!!
Mildew. As if I would let an international star live with mildew.
Me too. Let's doa 3-way duel.
Handbags at dawn, then?
Get your weapons ready, ladies.
See, this is why George loves my understair cupboard. Peace from stalking women.
Haz, did you watch the tribute to Walter Cronkite Sunday nite? They showed him at George's Italian villa, vacationing for a week!
Apparently they were close friends
Hi Une. Yes, we enjoyed our stay with Walt.
its ok haz.... i believe you...
and I just don't get WHY anyone wants him
I didn't see it Une. Yes, George has that Lake Como place as well, but those Italian women are shameless.
LOL!
You're of Italian extracation, aren't you Scrabbler?
I am 50% Italian. George admires my heritage.
QED
Scrabs LOL!
I was the furtive looking woman peering out from behind the bouganvillas at the back of the villa
Haha, Soodle. And we thought you were paparazza
That poor man. At least he has peace here.
rags
oh, soodle, I had assumed you were the one submerged in the lake with spy paraphernalia!
Oops, I am using the office laptop, so no Babble Expert.
No. that was my evil twin.
aaahhhh
Aha, we saw a periscope emerging from the lago, Soodle
Dear goodness. Ever thought of writing soap opera scripts, Soodle?
And someone was making bird sounds--was that you, Hazel?
Look. I explained all that to the local constabulary. I dropped my earring. Thats all. Jeese
sheesh.. I ask a question and everyone is so googly eyed over george that I go unnoticed * strolling into corner quietly.*
Haz - my life is one long soap opera. lo
Why do I like him? Talk, dark, handsome, hairy, intelligent--my kind of man.
Sorry, were we not paying you enough attention, carlee?
pasta al fresco con Giorgio . . . sigh
I'll take a crumb haz
Carlee, how are you doing?
We got caught up in our fantasy lives, Carlee.
GM everyone. Speedfreak. Are you there?..Going to Maine tomorrow for 5 days. Will jot a quick email later.
I'm good...I read u were having a good time kayaking last week scrabs
The evil twin thing/long lost sisters and brothers, all must feature in the soap opera writer's manual, filed under 'Run out of ideas'
Hi RKB
hi rkb
In honour of his George-ness, I have just finished all my ER's. Now THATS devotion!!
Fun, fun,RKB!
Haz, don't forget AMNESIA!
We had a great time, Carlee--my head is still there in the Adirondack Mtns.
Oh absolutely. And unwanted, unplanned pregnancies.
i'm still at camp myself..i love sleeping in a tent....
And waking up in a shower - 4 years later. A personal favourite of mine.
And recovery from a terminal illness because of a bone marrow transplant from an unknown, lost sibling.
We slept in an Adirondack guide tent--very cool out there, even during a wicked thunderstorm.
Scrabbler...looks like rain on and off...usually we are very lucky. The four college roommates meet for 5-7 days for a vacation at one one friend's house on China Lake.
And suffering from a rare disease known only to the scriptwriters and faded entries in medical textbooks.
How nie, RKB.
And the baddies ALWAYS getting caught.
Nice, I mean
jear
soap operas are still on?....
like the mystery fatal illness in Love Story -- the one that keeps you beautiful even in your death bed!
Always. But always getting out again.
oops. sorry about that...just thinking I will be away for those five days..will miss the chatter!
Victorian heroines were always succumbing to consumption, the writers in those days had no imagination.
Our fantasies and lunacy, RKB?
and suffering from the vapours...
succumbing and singing . . . in a garrett in Paris . . .
un 8 anybody?
LOL at "vapours"
un8 - not being in a chair
...the first one
With only tisane and Gauloises to aid their suffering.
sorry, got that one haz
TY, Hazel
Sorry, not got to that stage yet, lou.
Haz LOL!!
Please define tisane and Gauloises
Tisane, kind of herbal tea infusions, Gauloises, extremely strong French cigarettes.
unfiltered of course
Aha, and what about laudanum--that was used a lot too
indeed!
And the garret has an uninterrupted view of the Eiffel Tower. don't forget the Eiffel Tower
poppy juice the scrabs
when I worked au pair in Paris, I stayed in an unheated "maid's room" -- tiny round window framed the Eiffel Tower :-)
And leeches for bloodletting too
If films were to be believed - every window in paris has a view of Le Tower Eiffel
Did you smoke Gauloises, Une?
Well, it is big.
good morning all, help with the 9's pls
LOL Scrabs, actually I smoked the cheapest cigs in the local Tabac: "FLash"
hey, peri
Hello Periwinkle.
morning peri
And did you get the vapors. Une?
Welcome to La-La land Peri
the 1970s were pretty much post-vapours LO!
ai9/66 plural for ai8, tuft of feathers, think of young birds.
de9 - plural of de8 - de plus first letters of pirate's jolly flag, consumed food ending.
tx Haz!!
It is too early for me to get these expert clues.
You're welcome.
if de8 started with inter, you'd be asking lots of questions.
Alas, at 88/226 I must get ready for work. It has been a great start to the day, chatting with funny buddies here in Babbleland.
PHone.
I got it,Hazel. I actually figured that out. TY
Great - you're welcome.
later, scrabs :-)
Bye Scrabbler, have a good day.
I'm off to work myself... enjoy the day all
Bye carlee.
Time for lunch. Happy babbling!
bye Haz

ty fpr the help with that Jean
yw
I am missing the 4th u... I have un6/21, un8/50, and un5/12... what am I missing?
There's another un8, mom.
great... LOL! thanks.
Yes, I figured that's just what you wanted to hear. It is another un8/50.
would you mind clueing it?
ty mom and judi i now have all the u's
don't have much time today... have to take my brother in law and sister in law into the city today... must clean the bathroom and tidy before they get here, LOL.
wow... got it.
I had tried that word without the ending and it was not there... so I thought it was not a word that would have a past tense, silly me... LOL.
If you cannot do something in the present tense... why can you have done it in the past??? LOL!
because the present tense has other words like dethrone or throw??
OK... but throne is a word.
i gave up understanding the whims of the english language a long time ago
am just glad i didn't learn it as a second language
there is no un6 to "go with" the un8... that's all I'm saying, LOL!
We must all blame Latin for the root of all English language evil.
and throw is an irregular verb
the root of that un8 is not an irregular verb
OMG... I am getting a little carried away... sorry. I guess I am feeling persnickety today!
lol mom
:-)
lol. Persnickety.
BTW... not in the dictionary, LOL! That's all I will say on the subject!
lol
good morning everyone;)
so many babble words aren't in the dictionary
Down to 109. Must take a little break. Hiya, Crossy. *Poof*
but it is an old word used to refer to the dethroning of a monarch or the throwing of a rider
heya crossy
Well then.... they should not be on the board...
Hello Crosshair
that is not the un 8/50 I am referring to.. that is a word... it is the first un8/50...
i think some days we would have awful wee lists if all the non dictionary words were disallowed
Hi crossy... I am being persnickety today.
ahhhhhhhhhh got ya
im book hunting for the wife and could use your imput ladies.im told that diana gabaldon is good.any other author suggestions for books aimed more towards the ladies?
ladies read a certain type of book? (hides my collection of gruesome murders and forensic stuff)
If your wife likes soft-core porn Diana Gabaldon is great, LOL... not that there is anything wrong with a little soft core porn, mind ya.
maybe i'm not a lady
oh..lol
The first one I read was fine, but then they were all the same after that.
I am currently rereading Bram Stoker's Dracula.
porn is like that LOL
i'm reading doestoveski's the idiot
One of my all-time favorite books by a female author is by Barbara Kingsolver... The Poisonwood Bible... nice long book.
s
lol jac
but one of the best written books i ever read was snow falling on cedars can't remember the author though
The funniest thing is that my mother recommended her to me because she thought I would like the historical fiction angle, LOL.
before her sight went to hell she used to read v.c andrews and danielle steel..but im looking for a few fresh authors for her to enjoy
can't even spell dostoevski doestoveski whoever
Liked Snow Falling on Cedars myself.
we know who you meant.
My favorite novel of the 20th Century is A Prayer for Owen Meaney by John Irving... Cider House Rules runs a close second.
virginia andrews is ok don't really like that heart strings tugging stuff would rather have blood and guts
cider house rules..ive heard of that one quite a bit of late...
Patricia Cornwell or Kay Scarpetta might appeal to her Crossy.
oh dont worry jacq..she is getting a nice stephen king diet as well;)
cider house is one of the best books ever... in my opinion.
My husband just started reading Dean Koontz a lot.
jonathon kellerman is ok not too gory and a nice psych angle too
Now you people are out of my genre, LOL!
dean koonts is quite good for an easy read
i used to read a lot of dean koontz..koontz is for stephen king lovers who want something light lol
agrees
I used to read Stephen King... but then they all just felt the same... though I liked The Girl Who Loved Tom Jordan... a little different... more psychological than supernatural.
PB Jac Q :-)
ohhhhhh a word
LOL
3 wrds
LOL
try him again mom,his style is really changing try "hearts in atlantis,liseys story or duma key
takes my tea to the pb
Seriously though... I have never had anyone tell me that they disliked The Poisonwood Bible after reading it on my recommendation.
just to throw in another suggestion, I like John Grisham
OK... need some vacation reading... my Mom probably has them all.
I only read 2 John Grisham's... nice easy reads.
angels and demons by brown great book with a soso ending
crossy is taking notes...
I agree jac... better than DaVinci Code.
John Grisham's first book... A Time to Kill.. that one I really liked.
have read them all and yes they are an easy read. A couple of them deviate from his usual theme and are a fun read
a short book to make you think flowers for algernon best book i ever read
My husband reads that Bergen County, NJ author... Mary something... murder mysteries set right here in our neck of the woods... cannot remember her name, LOL.
i love that story..came out as a movie called "charlie" as well
OMG... that is a great book jac.
nods but the book is sooooo much better
For short and great... Of Mice and Men.
amazing story mom
another good one in that vein jacq is a story/movie called "cold equasions" by tom goodwin
I'll tell you the series I loved... The Bastard by John Jakes... historical fiction...
ohhh have to look for that
Never heard of that one crossy... am writing it down.
book is hard to find
movis should be easy to get ogg the net
The Lovely Bones is one of my favorite recent books.... when I am crying on Page 2 it's a keeper, LOL.
another AMAZING book is called "down to the sunless sea " by david grahm
clue for de 8/55 pls
well worth hunting for in used book stores etc(it is out of print)
If she likes funny.... David Sedaris' Naked is an absolute scream... he reads the book on tape himself... hysterical.
crossy notes that down
Garrison Keillor also reads Lake Wobegon Days on tape... which makes it great to listen to.
And, believe it or not... Bill Bryson's A Walk in the Woods is truly one of the funniest things I have read in years... don't know who reads it on tape, but it is funny.
my better half goes into a coma listening to audio books she says:/ so it has to be books converted to e-books for her reader;)
I am not an audio book gal by nature... but found Naked even funnier when read by Sedaris.
I did not listen to A Walk in the Woods
her reader WILL do audio books and i put a few danielle steels on there to test it
I would imagine that most of the authors we all just discussed are available for her e-book reader.
indeed trhey are mom
My daughter used to like to listen to the Harry Potter's on long car rides...
Stephen Fry reads them and does a fabulous job!
have you tried "borrowing "some ebooks?
de8...more of the de6...to hate
ty
its a grand thing.i have atm over 100 books on this reader for her,bout a dozen audio books,200 of her favorite songs and about 100 family pictures;)
heya phae
That's great... you and I discussed this technology at length once... I still have not bought one... need to find a job first, LOL.
yes indeed jacq,but ive found that many great books are now off the copyright list and available as freeware to those that want it (gutenberg.com)
yw boo and hello
lol mom,im thinking of selling the furniture to get one for myself;))
I am already going to Florida for a month and my husband is twitching.. so I will have to wait for the e-reader, LOL.
ty all for you book suggestions:)))
But now you have me thinking crossy... really, how much of the furniture do we really use???
No problem crossy... hope she enjoys.
indeed mom,you just need a pile of comfy cusions in a sunny corner;))
My decorating style is early 21st century poverty... don't know how many would be interested in buying, LOL.
Well, that's all I need... but husband and daughter enjoy the creature comforts!
i can burn my house and do 10 thousand worth of improvements mom;)
I swear if I had a garage sale people would feel sorry for me and bring me better stuff.
OMG, right!
But, I am happy... so I guess that's all that matters.
lol mom,we have been married 16 years and are still using her parents old living room set,talk about flash backs to 1965!!!
all furniture is is a means to be seated comfortably, so long as it's clean it doesn't matter how old it is, i ca't understand people who spend thousands on sofas
I had an epiphany in Target the other day... seriously... I was there with a friend who seems to have limitless funds... and I almost bought something that I should not have... but then I thought.. will this make me happy? And then I realized that I already was, so what did I need some "thing" for??? BTW... my friend is NEVER happy... so I guess she fills up on "stuff".
though it seems to be coming back into style again..maybe if i wait 20 more years....
crossy... I am using my husband's childhood dresser, LOL!
retro is a great look
mom it is probably built better than any new dresser
everything in my house, apart from mattresses, is second hand
It's all just stuff in the end...
Long as it is clean and does not smell, LOL!
mom...antiques are a good investment
had a freind over who is a antique dealer and he is starting to eyeball my furniture and appliances lol
exactly
my friend spend £5000 on a sofa and she hates it
WEll then I should be rolling in the dough phae!
says he hasnt seen a kitchen table with that much chrome on it in 40 years lol
lol crossy
5000 punds???!!!! crazy
I actually got new furniture 2 years ago for my living room... because the old was simply disgusting... waited for my kid to be 11 before I replaced it though... anyway, it is fine and cost under $1500...
is that sofa trimmed in gold?
nods she is, she has nothing but the best in her home and it's not comfortable or happy
it's italian leather apparently, not that it loks any different to my daughters £500 one
jac... that's what I was thinking about my friend the other day in Target...
it's sad to be so fixated on things
i ahve apartment insurance that comes with my car policy and i giggle when i see that the contents are insured for 50 thousand.you could put every piece of furniture i won in a wood chipper and replace it all in a saturday afternoon garage sailing lol
Some people just fill up the emptiness with stuff... I fill my emptiness with babble, LOL...
my grandchildren can sit anywhere in my home, they can eat anywhere, its them that matter not the furnishings
LOL crossy.
lol crossy
That's as it should be Jac...
can I have a clue for ar5,14?
Hmmmm... I will have to check my policy... a little garage saleing might be fun!
lol thats why this living room set is lasting so long my m-i-l had it covered in plastic from 1960-1972 lol
my kitchen table is a bit battered and it's a wee bit wobbly now, but the memories, the conversations we have had here, it's priceless
It depends on what kind of furniture you have Zingari, LOL...
actually don't have it yet, but will look.
don't have it Zingari, sorry
a + re4
wrong one...sorry
my wife was 18 before she found out that you could actually sit right on the fabric of a couch and not on a plastic covering lol

Can I PLEASE have a clue for re 7/32 and re 8/45. I have been monkeying for them for half an hour. Guten Morgen, all ye Babblers

I my eyes you always had a spirit bear
I have the re7 worth 28, take it thats not the one your after

re7/32 is a kind of hawk known for the color of its hindmost plumage, and re8 is what it did when its aerie got ruined the first time
crossy is be bopping to booker t and the mgs;))

hey ruru
At historical Greenfield village they shot off antique cannons for the 1812 Overture. Why do we play Russian music for our Indepenence Day?
heya ruru
howyd ruru
how's the seminar jm?
morning ru
wtg inge
to celebrate the multicultural country that is the USA?
I have often wondered that inge -- but my sister says it is because th emusic goes so well with fireworks
Because music is an international language.
yes ruru at about 11 pm eastern time I got to the dorm room
I slept in and am missing the morning workshops
oh... lol.. not a good start
but I have a beautiful view of the rockies from the dorm window
I got so little sleep this weekend and spent the entire (from 6 am until 10 pm) traveling that I couldn't have gotten up if I tried
I rode pretty much every thing but a caeml to get here
*camel
** sends yak to jm for ride home **
(with sherpa guide)
I guess I can stop with figaro now
Does that apply for the Nutcracker suite at Christmas time? At least the story was from a German author....and the USA almost did pick German for its native tongue
Or that "My country tis of thee" is set to the tune of "God save the Queen"?
I hope the yak and sherpa guide don't get here too soon -- i wouldn't know where to keep them
in the yak room
I think it has more to do with the fact that we had our own War of 1812 and most people don't understand that they are not the same war -- it was just a busy year
yes but there is no sherpa room
what if he is cute
oh well then I suppose he can stay with me! lol
doesnt the sherpa sleep with the Yak?
I think that the sherpa probably does normally but since this is a peace and justice conference I would loss my creds if my sherpa slept with the yak
I have ai9 .. what does the other 9 start with?
this is a funny conversation to walk in on
there is an ai 9? eeek
sorry ru ... how r u doing?

go6,27? any hints?
hi Nan, what is the situation with the fires today?
go 6 -- is the pl of the one I clued

I am so not getting that er with the variant beaver ending...
there is only one "r" in the grid
transpose the last two letters of the more familiar spelling
go + first three letters of a road sign ***our, + s
OK BR... but if it starts with er, how can there be an "r" in the ending? There is only one R in the grid.
er 6, please about the same as yesterday for us, nono -- the highway has been opened, though
i suppose thats a good sign then nan
er + what needs to remain closed to prevent the livestock from escaping
er6 ends in type of entrance
found it -- ty babrab
OK BR... you were cluing the ea, not the er, LOL... my bad.
also known as a front....
try looking at my clue
As I said, my bad...
still clueless to the go5 & its plural go6. cant seem to see it on the grid
go + first 3 letters of the de5/12 that means to hate
down to 50 -- time for some coffee

back to clue after I've listened to the 10:00 fire update
Well done cybernan.
Hey Haz!! and Hi Babblers all.
hi Haz and Fmitch
Good afternoon!
Have you finally torn yourself away from that pesky spreadsheet?
Good evening/afternoon (delete where applicable) everyone!!!!!
Hello MM.
yup and finished it, took nearly 30 hours LOL *am a tad crossed eyed now.
hi movie
Oh good for you. I'm sure you're glad that's over.
hello everyone!
Hi mm and Boo
and Annie!!!
Hello Annie, how are you?
actually Haz I woul quite happily do it all over again Im an excel geek :D
Hi Haz and FM...I am using Babble Expert as we "speak"..appreciate the work that is entailed. Not sure if it is for me but it is quite the work
oooo, wtg Annie!
So you finally got it installed, Annie?
I cant take any credit..my daughter installed it.
I cant wait to tell Uni..she was so nice. She sent the instructions.
Well, you've got it now and I'm sure Uni's instructions were impeccable.
impeccable to the maximum
Being able to give instructions about computers is quite a skill.
and has sporned may a helpdesk joke too
Genius.
People talking about browsers and caches always makes me nervous.
not sure I am up to starting a grid of this size at this time of day.
And when you get excel geeks around - goodness me, time to feel inferior.
seems to be way too many vowels.
I always thought cookies was for eating. I am intimidated by all computer geeks.
FM, it's fast-moving and mostly fun, it might help you to relax.
*were
I know, Annie, when you don't understand the jargon, it feels threatening.
my grammar is atrocious today
hello all!
At least you realised you'd made a mistake!
Hello peri.

hi peri
log is lagging for me. Hi peri!
help with ra8 pls
ra8 - the time of angst and acne for rodents?

Haz, that was hilarious.
oh, there are 3 re8 and I have 2 of them
Glad you liked it, Annie!
I think I am missing the 2nd re8,help pls
Peri, you may be missing the birds (think scarlet and what a dog wags) or second re8 - again think in terms of where birds live.
Having probs with the babble log will be back in a bit and see if it sorts itself out. Good to see you!
have both of them, thanks, Haz
Bye FM - I'm heading to the kitchen to get evening meal under way. Have a good day all!

hi nrkii
hi nrkii
annie, the last one I have is the prefix for four, as in te***hedron
I'm still missing 4 T's though...
I have that one. there is another one at the very end of the te's
nrkii, yours is the correct one...thanks
I was thinking of te + ***n, ***n go away
ack! my mechanic just called and told me that the repair he THINKS I need will cost $400
I want to finish the te's...they are annoying, Can I get a clue for te 7/32 ( the second one ) thanks
then I am done with the te's
nrkii, ouch! cars are so expensive to maintain
vietnamese holiday+ro4
the only one I have is the plural of te 6/21
need the one after that one also, nrkii
Hugs to the bethn----te's done
:) hugs back
the $400 is not great news, but the fact that he only THINKS that is what's wrong is what is bothering me
nrkii, I am assuming you are speaking of a car. The best scenario is he should know not THINK about what the problem might be. Do you trust this mechanic?
fireworks - last word so5/14 \

the nice thing about the Baptists is that they are less committed to tofu
Now is probably not the timeto admit that I Like tofu very much.
you go red -- nothing says non-violent people have to be sitting ducks
I like tofu a lot too -- but the rubber tofu circuit is enough to put you off of it
(making mental note on where to regift her Tower of Tofu next Christmas)
I think institutionally prepared tofu could bebad.
I had tofu and chinese veggies the other night, quite good
I make a wonderful grilled tofu for the vegans at my annual barbeque
Mmmmm.. Tofu.
makes me want some Inarizushi
I loved grilled tofu
it is when you try to accommodate everyone simultaneously that it gets bad
oo is that a name for grilled tofu myrd?
laundry calling again... anyone need any clues before I run?
no, it's a fried tofu pocket stuffed with sticky rice that's a little sweet.
sweet is less thrilling to me
yes, nrkii, first dr5/12
nrkii I am not up and running enough to ask for a clue, but thanks
it's not very sweet, just slightly.
dr + be under the weather
so I don't think I have met you myrd. Have you been coming here long?
or, to take off the tracks, but drop first vowel

(where's brisbane?) LOL
ROFL :)
it was tom, I needed to give him the shopping list... class tonight, Weds and Thurs nights and then NO MORE CLASS until the end of september... just online stuff and one paper that will be easy.
I know where Sydney is... and Cairns... and New Zealand. I am not very familiar with Oz.
Oh. And I think I sorta know where Perth is.
How's Georgia, Btw?
0.621371192237334 * 700
Pineapples and sugar were the major industries of the early town of Yeppoon. The first European residents arrived in 1865. Along with other sugar growing areas of Australia, South Sea Islanders were used as labourers on the sugar plantations, often without their consent (which was called Blackbirding).No sugar is grown in the area today, and pineapple production has declined significantly in recent years.
LOL BR to the RESCUE! ((hugs))
and ps, Georgia is fine Mama :)
hm so probably similar climate to Hawaii.
most likely similar...
I wish I was in Australia
no me, DR. It's hot there. At least here we can expect it to moderate some tomorrow!
it is warm here Std- it was 80 at 1030 last night
( at least that is what our thermometer said
)
Hi kids!
Dr is having Florida Weather!!!
It's about 30 here, not sure what that is in American... we have all our thermometers set to Centigrade so we know what our friends in Tbilisi mean
I want some warm weather :) and so, to bed for me.... Night night Babble Family... I am tired and hae a headache :) Sweet Dreams, while I go find my pillows xoxox **poof**
Hi Judi
hey Judi!
take care Aussie- I am coming off a 4 day headache- NO FUN
be well, Aussie
lol Rede- Yes we are
well 38 is 101.5 ish
you get rain with that , right red?
4 day headache is terrible.
*did calculation BR suggested* so that's 700 miles from Brisbane. Now when I figure out where Brisbane is I know yeppoon will be somewhere in that range...
We do get rain.
oh red, not you too! *gentle hugs and eclairs*
Blah. Too hot. About 73 here right now. Pleasant. Very uncommon for Mid-Atlantic summer.
most days, it sort of cools it down, but brings in this very foggy humidity.
73 is awesome!
I like 80 myself, but not at 1030 at night.
yes Red- went to Urgent Care and Dr. Am still not convince it is " just a migraine"
*fans bosoms with large rice paper fan* Mah, isn't it sultry?
80 is perfect during the day
oh DR... you too too??? *sad mama look* headache season must be here
sweet dreams aussieme! (((hugs)))
DR, perhaps you should call your regular doctor. Did any medication help?
yep! had never had one this long and have had migraines since I was 10
Judi, you are too funny!
*re-reads chog* OH! DR has the headache and red was commiserating...
Hey, Doc - put a leech in your ear and see what happens.
I think my upside down tomato plant is dying, maybe it molded.
The torodal shot helped the fiorinal did nothing.. Went to my dr today she is running blood te4s
rofl... leech IN ear... *makes yuk face*
No leaches!!! they are hard to keep track of.
lol - I wouldve if I had one Judi
Not so, Red. They just drop off when they're full.
my parents upside down tomato plant did not work right
Good, DR thats interesting that Toradol helped...it's an anti-inflammatory.
what did it do, DR? grow sidewayes?
Judi, we used to use them in the ICU I worked in, and they were hard to keeptrack of, even when they dropped off....
yes instead of a constricter or whatever they are called
up to 79.... have to leave in five minutes.
no Stid- the water just poured out
Here leechy leechy leechy...
oh! that could be a problem, eh DR?
a small one.. : )
*puts leashes on leeches*
Have they ever given you Reglan? Its a wierd anti-nausea that sometimes worksonMigraines. but not so much in a pill form.
*giggles at Stid*
YAY! I got the "got rid of rodent" word!
Pity the poor orderly who had to herd the leaches when the treatments were over.
nope... only the fiorinal since I was like 13. they gave me a triptan drug to try but when the dr said it might make me feel like I was having a heart attack I thought I would research before taking
yea Stid!
tht would be the Nurse. never fun.
I have had imitrex a triptan for migraines, it took the HA away in like 5 minutes, amazed me.
or the first-year doc ...
Fellow migraineur here! So sorry about your misery, DR.
hello cousin! was about to head out. wish you could have seen stidkid#2 acting this weekend. he was SPECTACULAR!!!!
ty Scrabs... has been 4.5 days of dark rooms and sleep
..or the 3rd year medical student called "Scut Monkey"
Good for him! What play?
I will write that one down too Red- Thanks
My fair lady -- he was Col. Pickering.
About 6 wks ago I had a Monday-Friday migraine episode--it well, sucked
No we dont let med students or first year docs mess with our patients. honest.
Cool Stid!
I meant cleaning up after leeches, Red
I have some thing called Maxalt for headaches -- works fine when I have an aura I notice before it really gets going, does almost nothing if I can't take it quickly though
I admire actors and public speakers---not my thing at all
hello, all -- jeez, I've arrived at a very weird point in the chog!! LOL
Yes, I have never seen any medical students or interns looking for leeches.
that is what they gave me Stid!
need the third se 6/18 please
New combo med + Trexemet = triptan + narpoxen (< --- like ibuprofen)
I hope it will workfor you DR!

hello. quiet
did everyone give up on the big grid?
hi all...here for a few minutes
Hello, Pini. Many have finished
hi Pini
<-- nowhere near finishing this gorilla!
hi BR! hi lbd!
for a big grid, it really wasn't a bad one, not like the other day, when the words just wouldn't appear.
well, only 98 words have appeared for me so far on this one...
I swear that's all there are!!! LOL
the first two rows were slow for me. after that it seemed to flow easier
if you would find more words, you would not have so many to look for
is that how it works, BR? I would've never known!!! LOL
sage advice, br
need a clue for the first de5/12, please
fireworks here - thank go4ness for the list for the last 100 or so...

big babies!
Hello hshliz! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!
very!!!
Son is having is first at the end of the year. I don't seem to worry as much about this one....
those were big babies.
unfortunately, I've gotta git going for a bit...so will provide updates when I can stop in again...
...hopefull, will be back tonight...
ciao all!!! Happy babbling!
hshliz, do they know the baby's sex yet?
i never worried about the first one, just tremendous excitement. less excitement this time, but still happy
not doing so hot here. Gall stones...
ok. see you later pini
bye, Pini!
nope.....or if they do they aren't sharing
ugh, gall stones. wish there was something to help you.
sorry hsh
this was the child that drove me nuts.....go go go all the time. It's a toss up here. DO I want him to have a boy just like him? Or do I want him to have a girl so he can find out what what all his former girlfriends parents felt.....lol
are you going to have it removed, hsh?
having an ultra sound tomorrow. Haven't seen the surgeon yet, but primary doc says it has to go.
lol, he can have a busy little girl and cover both bases!
lol
you're going to feel so much better with it removed.
I can't wait to have surgery at this point. Sounds strange, but true.
doesn't sound strange at all to me.. that's how i felt when i finally had my herniated disc removed
that's pretty much the way folks feel, hsh.
I have a friend that said she'd take it out herself if she knew how.
is
sorry, mistake there
was wondering about that, Dorens! lol
s'ok....I used to have a cyst that was the same way. As I was having it lanced the nurse would ask.....doesn't that hurt? And the answer was always no. The pressure release was wonderful !!!1
I surgery last week and I was really looking forward to it.. Thankfully I haven't had any pain post surgery so no meds
really hoping they can do it out-patient as I really can't afford to take a whole lot of time off work.
just found ra7 and 8, adolescent rodents
yeah, i have to be off for four weeks but thankfully I have time that has to be used before end of august so I was ok there
that's good mcurl
ty Dorens
not as much the money as it is that I just got a promotion
yw bugsaw, glad you could use it...
i'm feeling so good it's hard to remember I just had surgery and stay within my restrictions!
it was a great clue!
ty bug. every so often a great clue pops into my mind for an absurd word and i throw it out there hoping someone can use it.
I was called away ... thank you ... see you tomorrow perhaps.
bye merk
bye, merk
second al5/14 -- bill clinton's vp
congrats on the promotion, hsh
thanks
so5,14 please?
so+ letter before S + not stop
so + jason and the a***nauts
thanks dorens - had the last vowel wrong
dorens, you're on a role for great clues!
aww shucks, dawg! (blushing), thanks
*roll, not role
:-), knew what you meant. now I need some great clues for a couple of re's after the 8
after the re8 when the birds made a new home
clues for the go 5 &6 after the variations on an animal please
re+ take a **** and wait for the doctor
waiting for go***.. change the last vowel
ty dawg... kinda fishworthy there
diety + alien dude
past tense it too, Dorens
did that, thanks dawg
great clue Dorens! I never would have found it.
ah, now for that one,, i need to say i liked dawg's clue better
are there any "oo" words in here?
i was thinking of "waiting for go**** as a clue but wasn't sure if anyone would know the play.
no, Jen
thanks ibdawger
we always aim high, dawg... hoping they are there
most people I know haven't actually read or seen the play, but the title seems to have entered our culture somehow
the only reason i remember the title is from "Home Improvement*...Tim tried to scalp his tickets! lol
and babblers are particularly intelligent folks, if a bit crazy (how many hours do we spend here?)
I had to read the play for an English class. Thought it was one of the most boring things we had to read.
I actually read it in college.. english major, course in modern drama.. ibsen, strindberg, george bernard shaw, o'neill, some other irish guys, albee etc
can't say i really did understand this one, or rhinoscerous by ionesco... but they did entertain
I probably would have enjoyed it if my major was English. lol
lol
ahhh fireworks. and I'm off. see you tomorrow, most likely dawg.. night all
nah, probably wouldn't either, the profs at my college were oddballs. Can't quite describe how they fell in the grip of obscurity
my modern drama prof was the drama critic for the village voice... very interesting character, but ridiculously arrogant
whooooo hoooooo DORENS!!! sweet dreams!
thanks dawg.
dorens, there's a great Britcom called "Waiting for God"
hi Jilli
Hi all again
hello fellow babblers, I was told this was easy, so I dove in this noon; only have done 50 words because I've been gone all day. How is everybody?
Hi Nef! it's not a bad grid considering its size!
hi nef -- I've been in and out, 97 left and supper to get so unlikely to finish
i'm hawt and whiney! and going to get whinier tomorrow! how about you?
I was hot but just got back from a lovely swim in the sea, then a cool shower and hairwash
no nearby seas, Jilli. sounds lovely tho
we've ahd some rain today! About an inch overnight; and another 1/2" with hail here this afternoon!@ Things really look lots better today! :-)
sounds wonderful, jilli!
We really need rain here -- big fire danger.
we're getting smoke from Canada. Not sure where the fires are, but they sure are smokey!
Kelowna, BC, in the interior, is afire.
Here in the Twin Citries we've been in a bit of a drought for the past few years. We are something like 10 inches behind in rainfall; whereas western MN has had too much
under control now, I hear -- evacuees allowed back home but watchful waiting...
Canada, to the USA, is Terra Incognita
not to those of us who live close by, jilli.
Is that where one of the regulars lives? (can't remember who right now, though)
well, we know where fires in California are, but who knows where fires in Canada are?
jilli, I know where Canada is! ;-)
no babblers I know of are in Kelowna
congratulations, nef, lol!
cybernan? Is that who I'm thinking of?
Jilli, you want to keep your beautiful country a secret, you don't want it exploited like the US is.
Cybernan is in Calgary, Alberta, I think
jilli I grew up 50 miles east of North Dakota and 70 miles south of Canada. When I put it that way, most people can kind of figure it out.
okay, isn't she dealing with fires there too?
nef, I just wish you had said which Canadian province you were 70 miles south of.
why?
I mean, we don't say we're X miles north of the USA
Not in the Calagary area, nef
good for you
Manitoba; but why would I need to say that? THAT would confuse some people (like the ones who think North Dakota is near Alaska!)
*Calgary
Because Manitobans would like it, nef
and it might teach a few people something, perish the thought
jilli, the state of North Dakota was actually considering changing their name to just plain old Dakota a few years ago so that they would attract more tourists.
and what did the South Dakotans think of that?
I just got my 100th word! woohoo
whee, jen!
WTG, Jen!
always something to gripe about
Hey jill, I hear salt spring island has some very good lamb; do you eat that?
*groan*
(speaking of having things to gripe about)
facebook just got worse
You better beleive it, Locks! And hi! My fave nephew lives in Edmonton
babrab, shut up
shut up?
I don't think they minded. Their state is SOUTH Dakota, so they have more tourists! I think it was all a publicity stunt; but there are people who call the MN tourism dept. (where my daughter works) and think that they can go skiing here in the summer
cool jill. Have only had SS Island lamb once, many years ago
hahahaha
nef, we ran into that all the time in Montreal.
shut up hahahaha
What changed at facebook hurshy?
how did that happen, locks?
my grandfather joined.
LOL, hurshy! That's cool! :-D
Nef, i've known lots of people go skiiing in MN in the summer......you've got 10000 lakes
it was bad enough when my mom joined. i had to accept her friend request, but i put her on the limited profile. well then she figures this out and says how come she can't see everything i post, so i have to change that.
OOh, hurshy -- would I like him? Should I make him my friend or is he too young for me?
babble, i got a hundred words!
my grandfather, on the other hand, doesn't even SEND me a friend request. he sends a message to my inbox telling him to make me his friend. so not only have i got to be facebook friends, i have to make the request!
Yea, Jen!
jilli, he's past 80 and still happily married to my grandmother... and i have no idea if you would like him.
oh darn, hursh, but all the best to him and her
and GOOD FOR HIM!
hurshy, my hubby is stumbling through facebook and he thinks he has to find out his IQ and all the rest of that stuff too. THEN he keeps asking me who these people are that he's befriending there!
I'm FB friends with my adult grandkids, but they're not babblers, dammit.
got distracted trying to find info on the canadian fires. and now it's time for me to head for the pillows. see you all tomorrow. good luck with the grid
my mom and my grandfather are people who i would be in touch with anyway, and who i do not necessarily wish to share my every random thought with. this makes facebook an inappropriate venue for being friends. and i am sure family are the ONLY facebook friends either of them has, so it's very silly.
be well, lbd
nightynight, lbd, and thanks for paying attention :)
good night lbd
and i can't even post a complaint about it on facebook! so i had to come here to complain!
hursh, could you introduce them toa group they might enjoy?
in my early days as a babbler, i used to try to get family members to play. now i am SO GLAD they all refused so i have one refuge at least.
i don't see how, jilli. hey papa, how about joining the "quadruple heart bypass survivors" group?
that would be the best idea; get them into a group they might enjoy (or make your page very BORING!
besides, no matter what i suggest, he'll still be my friend, as will my mom, and therefore i have to think before i post anything, "will i get flak about this?"
true. I have a few nieces and nephews that I've gently chided for what they have posted on their sites <blushing while admitting this>
sheesh, I'm hands off about anybody's postings!
hi all
are they posting nude pics or something, nef...?
Well, hursh, I'm their age and I can't imagine anything shocking me any more
it's not a matter of shocking, jilli, it's a matter of a lot of things... things where we might disagree politically, things that are just random that i don't feel like sharing with them...
well, I'll MMOB
oops -- supper time going off...
facebook should have a big banner at the top that explains that the proper etiquette is that if you are the person with more power in the relationship, due to age, employment, or whatever reason, you do not initiate a facebook relationship.
it's a whole new thing... like sexual harrassment, but now it's online-personal-space-invasion
get a second account and only invite those you want
You can always politely decline Hurshy. Just tell them that you wouldl rather email them and talk to them directly than have them intrude on your peer relationships.
They might decide you are too radical for them and just back off. lol
i should have done that, bugsaw... i wonder if it is too late to go back.
Hurshy, my daughter was talking to me. My niece had posted about how she'd been to a party and had gotten high (she's 18, and was job hunting at the time); and my nephew had posted a few suggestive pictures on his page
Probably not. I saw my son prancing down the street wearing a dress in the gay pride parade and I told him it was not the best way to inform your mother! (He still says he was doing it for shock value and to support his gay friends, which could be true, but still it was not the smartest thing to post when employers google people.
so did you chide for the getting high, or provide the purely informational point that employers are now looking at potential employees social networking pages? (although, perhaps she has her privacy settings well set)
my son was annoyed when I found out his gf dumped him from FB
Nice to be thought of as Persona Non Grata just because of seniority
hi gang- could I get help on the ea5/10 before the hungry person?
(my dtr. talking had kept me from answering your question earlier) She agreed with me about what her cousins had posted. I think younger people don't consider that "the WHOLW world can read some of those comments on websites; they forget that facebook and myspace are pretty open to others
hey. if an employer doesnt hire you because of your sexual orientation then thats a lawsuit
My descendants are very discreet on FB
ea -- consumed
yeah but good luck proving it sugyrox
ty BR- was using the wrong e
come in wearing a dress to your followup
they may not hire you because of your exhibitionism -- which is not a lawsuit
I shall now leave this discussion
not that anyone cares
They don't have to tell you why they didn't hire you ..
jilli - there was a friends episode where chandler got promoted, and the people at work he used to hang out with and joke around with no longer wanted to do that. it is not unreasonable, as phoebe pointed out to him.
so if a man walked down the street in a parade wearing a suit, he is exibiting his heterosexuality
Bye Jilli-
now jill don't leave
we can change the conversation
im sugy's brother... btw ..lol
I really only joined FB to play Lexulous
I got invited to a baptist party where they will be serving wine
she said, "they still like you, and they think you're a great boss - you're just not their friend anymore"
really Jmc???
My SIL does not drink OR dance
yes imagine my surprise at the baptist conference
hi all. anyone got j clues before i go to sleep?
I love my son and don't really care what his preference is, but I know a lot of employers do care, even when it has nothing to do with his ability to work. I guess I just wanted to keep protecting him sugy.
bosses can never be friends... i keep it strictly bis. congrats to them ... im going back to babbling.. hahaha
hurshy, I've been very low key about telling them that they shouldn't post "certain" things on social networks. I even told my own cousin that when she joined (and she's just a few years younger than me). SHe had posted her phone number and other contact info onher website
got 3 j words now, all rhyme with best.
facebook page
je 6/12 to make fun of
Is it wine or Baptist "wine" i.e. grape juice?
ty mkg
to have made fun of
no no its real wine
going to look for the next icon theme, which is Whales and Dolphins, suggested by atalante. Bugsaw doesn't have to change hers and I think the rest of you don't care.
yeah, well, it's fine to point out that people can see things, i think. that's just a fact.
I care jill I just don't always have the time and energy
ty and yw
dont have L words either. any clues?
li+ fence opening
Me too Jilli. I love to Babble but get sidetracked by the chat and it makes it hard to finish, let alone figure out how to change my icon. I love it that you always make the time tho!

night all.
oh, had to look that one up, une.
pooh DR takes more than that to offend me
besides I am a Quaker
hey, figaro is in the grid but not in dictionary.
Une, I just read something by jim bunning ... he is way to the right of lyndon larouche and john birch
ok PHEW! I would not want to offend...
did nef leave?
no- MKG Did
to the right of larouch and birch? wow!
did you konw that lyndon larouch was a consictious objector to war
oh bye mkg *waves*
phone call ---- now, re icon themes, everyone says they don't have time. This game is supposed to be a cooperative affair, and there's no fun for me doing the icon themes alone, or with three or four others who may or may not be on at the same time. The whole idea is to share information. Sorry to gripe (babrab), but it seems in order to follow the crowd, ignore the icon thmes others have taken the pains to think about and offer for your enjoyment if you bother to click on the icons. Here endeth the final lesson, and I'll google whales and dolphins for about 5 minutes as many of you could do too.
*conscientious [you'd think I could spell my own work
one more before sleep: the o word on bottom line plesae.
I'm still here jmc, did you want something (or did you think I left because I said goodnight to mkg)?
jill lots of times people do the icon themes sometimes people don't
well I for one usually do the icon themes but I don't think i'm in sync for todat
I thought you left when you said bye to mkg and mkg continued to chog -- I was confused
today
jmc, pretty amazing -- like Barry Goldwater flipping later in life
I have the eggplant recipe on my profile because of an icon theme
hi harp
sorry thought one more so no zeros in grid.
no lyndon larouch still opposes imperialistic war I believe
jmc, that sounds like my grandmother's Louisiana recipe! :-)
any one have bottom line o word and clue??????plz?
I believe it is pl or 4/5 mkg
I am sure it is Mississippi! lol
point taken Jilli. I will try harder

I well remember eating it with a big glass of iced tea with fresh mint LOL

fe8 Latin for window

our church has some "updated" verses to finlandia This Is Our Song...
plural of st5/14
that is the st 7
they had a third verse tonight -- I love the original words though
on Sept 12 in the Meeting where I attended about 350 people showed up and someone started singing it and we all joined in an cried
OMG, I can imagine, jmc
it was memorable
especially since you could see the smoke from the pentagon from the meeting house
111!
go Jen go!
wow jmc
it was an odd time to live in DC for sure
j junked
g gone
And by the way, while I'm griping, I'm SICK of jokes and misinformed vicious cracks and lies about Canada's great universal health care system, which has saved my life promptly twice, with NO bureaucratic interference. I pay $54/month premium and that's it for medical care in BC.
jilli, i'm with you -- it's just ridiculous
gosh jill! I never saw even one such crack on the chog ---my sister always had the best things to say about it
you didn't mean the chog, right?
jilli, I'm a fan of the Canadian medical system
jilli, I well remember having emergency surgery in France -- was in the hospital for over a week and paid a total of about a dollar (for the thermometer)
120!
go Jen go! almost 1/2 way there!
there's SUCH ignorance and misinformation flying around
the od4 was such a fish I can't believe it took me so long!
jmc, I'm not talking about the chog -- was watching CNN and they thought it was hilarious that somebody might wait for 6 months for care in Canada
what an unfunny lie
lots of right-wing propaganda on TV right now -- paid commercials
they are gunning for Obama -- they figure if health reform fails that he fails -- even called it his "Waterloo"
126!
tees
Just heard another lie about the Canadian system -- we certainly CAN decide who our doctor is -- grrrr
oops!
pb jen *opens do4*
huh?
i said sorry
I received an email today from my step-mother that was so offensive to me *I* sent back a reply saying that the person who PhotoShpped it would never have done that to a White leader of this country and whoever sent it out was a racist bigot! *I* did not vote for Obama (nor did I vote for McCain; but I DID vote!); but I feel that as our President he deserves the respect of the office at least
anyone have the st7,32 please?
past tense of st5/10
what you did with your car
sorry, forward, I don't
past tense of male cow
the insurance companies here didn't go out of business -- they cover extras
the opponents to Obama's proposal have no constructive ideas
thanks for the st7
there is just so much bad politics right now that I am embarrassed to say that these "politicians" are running our country
PB is not that bad! lol we pretty much all spend some time there!
there is a cute cabana boy who feeds you chocolate and gives you a massage in the pb ;-)
ra4, I just learned a friend died who was a big supporter of my org.
This bi*** just said that Canadian and Brit cancer patients can't get treatment in time -- LIE!!!!!!
he was in his late 80s and ill for a long time
I am sorry to hear that JMC.
somebody give jill a bourban
I'm here as proof TWICE
just a real real sweet guy who dedicated his life to making the world a better place
jilli, back away from the TV, grab the remote, and turn the TV off -- or at least to a REAL news channel
bourbon is American. I like vodka and wine. I'm angry about the demeaning of Canda
what, like FOx, nef?
so sorry how about a bloody mary then?
watch the CBC!
no, jilli. I don't think that any of the 24 hour "news" channels are any good
with 'er 'ead tucked underneath 'er arm, eh, jmc?
I do watch the CBC, jmc, yawn
sure jill
she walked the bloody tower
re8 please? I have the birds and pt of built a house of twigs
I bet it doesn't get you this riled up then, does it?
with 'er 'ead tucked underneath 'er arm, at the midnite hour
re8 -- students take your places be re8
no, nef, it doesn't -- but I feel so strongly that the USA can't continue with its appalling medical system.
ich my sons new gf watches Fox seriously
another clue please, jmc?
omg, jmc!
ok, I'll go away again. All this ruined my dinner!
I know I gag everytime I think of it
re -- ushers escort you to you ****; pt
what BR said une
thanks!!!!!!!!!!
