wb jmc

1:17 am

:-)

1:19 am

so can I tell y'all the odd thing that happened tonight?

1:19 am

sure

1:20 am

I am in Utah at a Baptist conference this week

1:20 am

I have been joking on the chog about how all my bourbon has to be virtual

1:20 am

morning all

1:20 am

so tonight I was invited to a birthday party by one of the Baptist poohbahs

1:21 am

hi rolin

1:21 am

they served wine and beer

1:21 am

hello rolin

1:21 am

hi rolin

1:21 am

hi rollin

1:21 am

its oce the ad5/12 and the or6/18 are linked in the grid

1:21 am

Is that a no no for baptists? excuse my ignorance

1:21 am

so we were sitting there chatting about this and that (mainly about religion) when there is a knock at the do4

1:22 am

Baptist theoretically are dry and sourthern Baptists are definitely drive.

1:23 am

This crowd was a mixed of a couple of different kinds of Baptists

1:23 am

SO there is a knock on the do4 and the birthday girl (of 65 or so) goes to answer and there is a police officer and two young people

1:25 am

So we apologize for being so noisy and the police officer said no it's because you are drinking at all and we have to confinscate all of the alcohol or pout it out!

1:25 am

SO a Baptist birthday party got raided!

1:25 am

lol how did they know? (is it illegal to drink in Utah?)

1:26 am

they do have strict drinking rules in UT

1:26 am

apparently it is a dry campus so it is illegal to drink on campus

1:27 am

it's illegal to drink on most campuses (presuming you're on a college campus) but moreso in UT

1:27 am

lol so were you handcuffed and taken down to the station? (rhetorical)

1:28 am

no but they said we could either put it in the car and leave the state tonight or pour it down the drain.

1:28 am

so you poured it?

1:28 am

I said if they wanted it pour out they could do it themselves so they poured out 24 bottles of beer (there were about 16 people at the party so it wsa obviously not a raucous crowd)

1:29 am

just so odd to get raided at a Baptist birthday party where except for two children I was among the youngest there

1:29 am

sigh in this day and age...people should have a choice

1:30 am

and since the conference coordinators were ate the party I think it will be a long time before they come back to Utah

1:31 am

lol

1:31 am

1:31 am

2:01 am

hi Volley, Josh

2:01 am

pr 6 ..word meaning before+mountain crag

made me feel like an id5

2:01 am

that ending for the i is so unfamiliar to me...we usually use a z for that so have to constantly remember it can be both ways for so many words

2:01 am

pr9/66 -- a relation between animals in which one organism captures and feeds on others.

2:01 am

sorry, brain not working well enough to do clever clue

2:02 am

2:09 am

geez I don't have the pr 6 .. I have pr 9/66 only and the pr 7/8

2:09 am

2:10 am

2:11 am

thanks, dart -- guess it was you

2:11 am

2:19 am

2:19 am

tks dart

2:19 am

2:19 am

my last nine

2:20 am

ty dart

2:21 am

one of my favorite ir words today - ir 5

2:21 am

pr9 -- pr + vowel + Miss Spelling + **ne of Green Gables

marching to pr... (prefix for before + think of a type of house that has lacy wood at the roofline and lots of lace doilies inside - take away the first 3 letters and use the rest...

2:22 am

thank you jilli

Good question, broll. I think jillibus mentioned having e-mailed her but got no reply. Is that correct, jillibus?

2:54 am

broll, I'm worried -- I emailed her a few days ago and no reply

2:55 am

correct, Haz

2:55 am

I'll check the archives to see if she has been playing but not chatting.

that's a ko5

2:55 am

3:21 am

ermmmm it's due to get better

3:21 am

yep trying again

3:22 am

Hello Andree.

3:22 am

good thing he ain't coming here...we are having a non summer :(

3:24 am

ugh nothing worse, we are having a non winter but i am definitly not complaining

3:24 am

sigh...we should only have a non winter

3:25 am

its very pleasant and quite unexpected

3:26 am

well glad for you although you don't usually have rough winters

3:27 am

hi andree

3:28 am

sydney winters are quite mild, but at 23degrees c all this week its unbelievable

3:28 am

hi jilli

3:28 am

lol that's our summer but with lots of rain (this year) should be in the high 20's to low 30's in July

3:29 am

we are called the lucky country

3:29 am

Morning/evening all. Coming up for air from the depths of the grid.

3:29 am

yep I can see that although Melbourne usually has colder winters than you, yes?

3:30 am

moo

3:30 am

Yes! hello all again

3:30 am

any cluesfor todays puzzle????

3:31 am

speaking of colder and warmer places in ossie...anyone seen Sandyloo lately ...I think she's in Perth

3:31 am

Good morning FM - just back from hanging out the laundry.

3:31 am

hi fmitch and lynxxx

3:31 am

wb lynxxx

3:31 am

i have not seen sandy since her daughters op, have been wondering how she is

3:31 am

She hasn't been around for a few months Just. Her computer was broken and she was looking after her daughter after her op.

3:32 am

I remember her daughter was going thru such a horrible situation :(

3:32 am

do yo know if her daughter is doing well?

3:33 am

gat s

3:33 am

i haven't seen rose since she got back either, we had a day out with mrp on the day their ship docked but i haven't sighted her on babble

3:33 am

unerman - if you haven't played before, the idea is to get as many 4 letter and bigger words from the grid opposite. There are 300 today. You can get a list of first two letters and length of words from Lickety's babble clues, under Friends of Babble, bottom left corner.

3:33 am

rose was here just the other day Andree.

3:33 am

i know what to do, i figured it out, but thanks. who had an op????

3:34 am

I made contact a few weeks after the op. She was in pain - but i imagine it was too early to judge whether the op was successful.

3:34 am

well I sure hope she's doing well, poor thing...what a thing to happen :(

3:35 am

fmitch its probably me i am not om much lately,i am making a new quilt and i get carried away , haven't seen sprite lately either

3:35 am

Was awful...the medicine she was given seems to have a number of legal cases against it in the States

3:36 am

thx lynxxx, keep us up to date, i so hope the op was a success

3:36 am

Getting carried away quilting - how I know that feeling!

3:36 am

hahahahahaha

3:36 am

lol I know what you mean Andre, get stuck into a new project and time just goes out of the window.

3:36 am

well that won't help her much...in the states you can sue whomever for a bundle

3:36 am

FM understands as well.

3:37 am

not here though..:(

3:37 am

and haz when you patch you nearly wear out the iron pressing constantly, know you would love that

3:37 am

Was it the original medicine that caused her to have the seizures that was so iffy?

3:37 am

we could quilt and Haz could ir4, and everyone would be happy :)

3:37 am

Yes Haz

3:38 am

ha ha fmitch

3:38 am

Good thinking FM, just as long as I got the credit for the whole project turning out beautifully.

3:38 am

or we could torture Haz by making her sew!

3:39 am

have you unearthed anything else interested about yr ancestors Haz?

3:39 am

*interesting that is

3:39 am

Apart from the rich seam of embroidresses that I'm descended from? I told you about the shotgun wedding?

Hi folks! Not really playing right now, hubby's birthday, house to clean and lemon meringue pie to make. But I wanted to let everyone know I just spoke to Sprite on the phone. She is not terribly ill or anything--she just has been overdoing it and is taking a lot of necessary time to rest and build up some resistance. She gets well from one common virus and immediately comes down with another and wants to just take some time do do nothing until she can get back on her feet. She thanks everyone for their concern, loves you all, and will be back on when she feels it's a good idea to be active again.

3:40 am

didn't hear about the shotgun wedding

3:41 am

Thankyou so much for that MonkeyGames

3:41 am

thank you monkey

3:41 am

Well, we knew that husband's grandmother had got married at age 15. Birth dates now confirm that she was pregnant at the time, to a much older man.

ty monkey; much relieved to hear

3:41 am

Hi MG thanks for passing that on, appreciated!

3:41 am

thx monkey, pass love and get better soon wishes on

3:41 am

Thanks for letting us know, MonkeyGames.

No problem! I was worried too. OK, back to cleaning and baking! Have fun everyone!

3:43 am

Happy Birthday Mr. MonkeyGames!

3:43 am

Bye MG - best wishes for the birthday boy

3:43 am

bye MG

I'll pass taht along! *poof*

3:43 am

Haz - did your husband know his grandfather?

3:43 am

interesting Haz.

3:44 am

No, lynxxx, he died quite young, in his thirties/forties I think.

3:44 am

Thanks, monkeygames -- I just got back from Facebook and saw your message -- phew!

3:45 am

phantom: slubberdegullion

3:45 am

good one babble

3:45 am

now that is a great word BR!

3:46 am

a slobbering fool?

3:46 am

pretty close, lyn

3:46 am

That sounds like a Scots word to me, I could be wrong, but they like calling people names like hallions and gulpins.

3:47 am

A filthy, slobbering person.

3:48 am

But google says it might be a combination of English and Spanish/Portuguese.

3:48 am

back soon, must make dinner

3:48 am

bye Andree

3:48 am

Bye Andree - how long is your son in London?

3:49 am

bye andree

3:49 am

btw -- sprite is a phantom here!

3:51 am

so is your teiid Jilli

3:52 am

a variation is used here in a Scottish invective: http://tinyurl.com/32z7f3

3:52 am

that's dartie's fav word lol but there is a word with ii

3:52 am

thanks, lyn, lol!

3:53 am

dart and I share teiid

3:53 am

Thanks, babblerabble. Make a list of those, it would keep you in phantoms for a while!

3:53 am

oh okay

3:54 am

drawlatch hoydens - now there is an insult with a difference

3:54 am

Scots cake makers must not have gone to Patisserie school by the looks of it.

3:55 am

when delusional, conjuring a phantom truly is not difficult

3:56 am

I know, and it always concerns those who don't realise your MO. They seek to point out the missing letters.

3:56 am

da5/6...sounds like Hawaii 5 0...book him da*** add vowel in the middle!

3:58 am

200 words and nearly 2:00 am -- bedtime!!! Night all!

3:58 am

bye Jilli, sweet dreams

3:58 am

Good night jillibus, sleep well and don't dream of slabberdegullions.

3:58 am

Nighty night jilli.

4:08 am

tough grid for me

4:08 am

Well done Just, sleep well.

4:08 am

Congrats Just, goodnight

4:10 am

Congrats Just. Haz did you get your printer to behave in the end?

4:11 am

Yes, FM. After I had shown it the instructions and the CD and threatened to uninstall it, I shut the computer down. When I switched it back on, the printer swung into life. I joked with Lori yesterday that it printed out SORRY.

4:12 am

LOL, glad you showed it who was boss :)

4:12 am

In fact, it printed out, without protest, what I had been pleading with it to print for ages. Talk about artistic temperatment!

4:13 am

But we're letting bygones be bygones and I haven't written it down in the incident book.

4:13 am

Ist rule of computer use...when something goes wrong, turn off then turn back on. I keep forgetting it but it always works for me

4:14 am

I know - same with internet when it goes awry. Switch off the router, switch it back on and pr6/21!

4:14 am

Is that what computer helpdesks do all day? Tell people to switch off and on again?

4:15 am

I have to turn off at the power switch for internet issues

4:16 am

Yes, I switch it off at the plug and back on.

4:16 am

Would it be inappropriate if I requested a slightly smaller grid for tomorrow, these big ones are sapping.

4:17 am

You're the one with the ear of Dr-G.

4:17 am

*gets down on knees to send a message*

4:18 am

And you'll be blamed, whatever the size of the grid.

4:18 am

really?

4:18 am

Oh absolutely, lynxxx. Didn't you know?

4:18 am

I haven't been blamed for anything for ages, amazing.

4:19 am

It's just kind of understood, FM. What was the last thing you advised Dr-G about, I've forgotten?

4:20 am

300 words in those letters? <------ I beg to digger! G'd Morning Babblers!

4:20 am

hi Lori

4:20 am

umm , how to solve the wolds economy but I don't think he was listening.

4:20 am

Hey ho, Lori

4:20 am

I also might even beg to *differ.

4:21 am

Morning Lori, lol I ws wondering :)

4:21 am

"ws" you? :p

4:21 am

I remember now, he wasn't aware that the server had gone down or something and you told him. Everybody else just complained, you swung into action. We don't call you The Administrator for nothing.

4:22 am

good job FM

4:22 am

**no-one mention the amount of re's, we don't want to scare Lori off** Oh yes thats right Haz, I had forgotten that.

4:22 am

THOUSANDS of re words. THOUSANDS.

4:22 am

Holy crap! I hadn't even noticed until, until...... gah

4:23 am

Actually the p's and n's were worse than the r's

4:23 am

They stretch beyond the little window of the Word List, there are that many of them.

4:23 am

Yuk. re's are worse than taxes.

4:24 am

an infinitiy of re's

4:24 am

On and on and on and on they come.

4:24 am

I've got 19 left.

4:24 am

But don't let that deter you, Lori!

4:24 am

You guys are harsh on a caffeeineless body

4:25 am

19 re left. You hear that? You thought I was exaggerating, didn't you?

4:25 am

you should know better than to babble without coffee!

4:25 am

LOL no 19 words in total left *vaguely smug*

4:26 am

It's brewing, just not fast enough. ***ignores the re taunting and rises above it all***

4:26 am

Well yes, I thought that was the case but we like to keep Lori on her toes...

4:26 am

*whispers there are 32 of 'those' words*

4:27 am

So, that's more than 10% of the total grid devoted to re?

4:28 am

*** la la la la la la la la la***

4:28 am

LOL how many more ways can we taunt her with stats?

4:28 am

How many letters used in all re words combined?

4:28 am

I could throw a quick graph together if you like?

4:29 am

Oh yes, graphs are always good.

4:29 am

Just think, Lori, if you ignore re words until the end, you're only less than 90% done.

4:29 am

glad to say I found the god of love unaided today.

4:30 am

Good! He was beginning to get a bit sulky.

4:32 am

not surprising seeing as I gnored him 2 grids on a row.

4:32 am

hello :)

4:32 am

Liz! Hello!

4:33 am

Good morning Liz!

4:33 am

hi Liz!!

4:33 am

How is Sark today?

4:33 am

hi there all. can i please have help with that ko4/8. it rejects the japanese fish!!

4:33 am

FM :) LYN :)

4:33 am

Haz :)

4:34 am

ko4.8 k & iron ***

4:34 am

ko4 - misspelling of the centre of an apple?

4:34 am

Sark's fine FM although I am a tad p******d off today as I attended the wedding from hell yesterday lol

4:34 am

thank you lynxx

4:34 am

off to the PB lynxxx :(

4:34 am

How are you, Liz? Heard anything from our deportee (Ata) on FB?

4:34 am

gah! sorry for using that baaad word

4:35 am

why so bad Liz?

4:35 am

Yes Haz she's having a great time :)

4:35 am

But she's missing us all, isn't she? Pining to get back?

4:35 am

Liz! G'd morning to ya'. :)

4:36 am

Oh FM it was appalling! I ws doing the disco (the music) for the evening party but they were just horrid horrid people

4:36 am

Errr....not sure about that Haz :)

4:36 am

886 points!!!!

4:36 am

Humour us, Liz, we need to feel loved.

4:36 am

soak

4:37 am

Haz! Ata says she's missing you SOOOO badly!

4:37 am

LOL

4:37 am

I KNEW it. She looooooooooves us.

4:37 am

Ata may come home early just to rejoin us all :)

4:37 am

that has no ring of truth to it whatsoever

4:37 am

Can she do that under the terms of the deportation order?

4:38 am

It doesn't really does it Lynxxx?

4:38 am

Actually I'm sulking with Ata because she put Hobbit in kennels instead of donating her to me for the duration

4:38 am

Or will she get a royal pardon. Of course, if John Barrowman would drop the stalking charges, things would be simpler.

4:38 am

wonder if she will be allowed back in this time, it was touch and go last time.

4:38 am

spired

4:39 am

I know. What a time we had, picketing Heathrow and everything.

4:39 am

unerman - you need to put your cursor back into the add word section.

4:39 am

Actuallly Haz, I think John Barrowman forgave her, its David Tennant thats on the run from her now

4:39 am

i know its screwing up

4:39 am

Have you still got the banners, FM?

4:39 am

'Free the Canterbury one'

4:40 am

No I had to dispose of them

4:40 am

Those banners were a political hot potato!

4:40 am

David Tennant, you say? I saw a picture of him with grey hair, they said it had to do with a film role. Obviously he's trying to disguise hiimself to throw her off the scent.

4:40 am

porr Ata!

4:41 am

He's planning on growing a beard too. Ata's probation officer demanded it!

4:41 am

I don't know, if we can get Amy Winehouse back into the country, you'd think it would be simpler with Ata.

4:41 am

Good thinking with that probation officer.

4:41 am

You know "Ata Winehouse" kinda has a ring to it

4:42 am

It shows imagination, foresight, clear-thinking. He's obviously not destined for a career in politics.

4:42 am

You're right, Liz. We could disguise Ata as Amy to get her smuggled in.

4:42 am

LOL Ata? If you're lurking, you know we love you :)

4:42 am

Torn clothes, raggy hair and too much eyeliner.

4:42 am

That eyeliner!!!!!

4:43 am

I know!

4:44 am

great voice though

4:44 am

Actually, if she had kept the hair shorn from Hobbit the last time, we could cobble together an Amy Winehouse wig. Good recycling, don't you think?

4:44 am

damn customer brb

4:44 am

Yes, but if she keeps going the way she is, that voice is going to be either ruined or silenced.

4:45 am

good thinking Haz :)

4:45 am

Same colour, we wouldn't even need to dye it.

4:46 am

that k pops up in some strange places today.

4:47 am

It does, not content just to start words.

4:47 am

That was bad enouogh!

4:48 am

A bit of an attention seeker, is k.

4:48 am

I am running out of steam ...

4:49 am

List time?

4:49 am

Oh I listed at 46, can't afford any more grey hairs.

4:50 am

Have you ever heard of morewords?

4:50 am

I may have mentioned it here before, though not often, I'm sure.

4:51 am

No never, can't think that you have ever mentioned it before at any point over the last 4 years, not once!

4:52 am

I must have imagined mentioning it, in that case.

4:52 am

I've heard that it's awfully useful. But don't quote me.

4:52 am

LOL actually I rarely use I just count like mad.

4:54 am

Well, if you run out of fingers and toes, I've heard that it's useful.

4:55 am

Anyway, I must head off to do the dreaded shopping. See you later!

4:55 am

bye Haz

4:55 am

I will be heading off shortly too for the same. Bye Haz.

4:56 am

6:57 am

okay, there we go. NBT, good morning babble friends!

6:58 am

question: does anyone know what determines whether a word gets the -er ending, or the -or ending? for example, you can have a debtor, but not a debter

6:59 am

no idea, Trif. Good day

7:00 am

good day, as in you are leaving?

7:08 am

good discussion of er/or: http://tinyurl.com/ox5ybs

7:08 am

oh, br, you are so nice! thank you dear

7:10 am

An agentive ending in the English language is the use of the suffix -er, -or, -ist, or -ian at the end of a verb in order to create a noun meaning "someone or something that does the action the verb describes." Examples include provider (from provide) and builder (from build). Examples of words with -ist and -ian endings include pianist and librarian.

7:16 am

it's a really interesting article, thank you so much for sharing it! I have wondered about the grey/gray thing myself....

7:19 am

hmmm. the very -or vs -er factor comes to play with the do/21,,,

7:31 am

good morning trif and bab

7:31 am

and anyone else

7:33 am

interesting article and fwiw I like Gray for a surname and grey for the color

7:37 am

hello, west

7:38 am

how are you today bab?

7:39 am

doing okay .. have a sense of being quite ignorant again, having not come across the term "agentive ending" before. I just used "actor."

7:40 am

how can you possibly know everything there is to know? doesn't make you ignorant

7:41 am

sounds made up to me anyway lol

7:42 am

google: 177,000,000 for gray; 157,000,000 for grey

7:42 am

oh well I'm in the minority

7:43 am

with those numbers hard to go wrong with either

7:43 am

I think I'll campaign for grey do I get your vote?

7:44 am

sure, why not

7:44 am

good I'll owe you one

7:45 am

7:59 am

you and me both scrab it used to be so nice

7:59 am

Was able to share A LOT!

7:59 am

wow une that's super

Good morning Bsabblers :)

7:59 am

90! Wow! I have tiger and day lilies but have not heard of magic lilies.

7:59 am

morning, nono :-)

7:59 am

hi nono

7:59 am

Hi Nono

8:00 am

also known as surprise lilies, naked ladies, resurrection lilies

8:00 am

"lycoris"

8:00 am

we've had so much rain our hydrangea is about to eat Rhode Island

8:01 am

they're sooo satisfactory: they're beautiful, last a long time as a cut flower, endure forever (I have some from my grandmother's garden!)

8:01 am

west, what a wonderful problem to have!! Lucky you!

8:01 am

I want to get hydrangeas for my yard. Do deer eat them?

8:01 am

yes one good thing about this record breaking rain

8:02 am

hydrangeas do LOVE to have wet feet!

8:02 am

I don't know scrab but they probably do

8:03 am

gardening advice they are big and white I want some color what do I need to add to the soil and when?

8:03 am

My friend adds something that makes them blue--check with a nursery

8:04 am

scrabs, I googled it and found this: Unfortunately, deer love young hydrangeas. They also like new leaves on older plants. However, the older plants usually survive the damage even if they don’t bloom that year. If you are having problems with newly planted hydrangeas, it might help to plant larger hydrangeas and protect them with wire cages the first few weeks they are in the ground.

8:04 am

okay thought you might know off hand

8:04 am

they were here when we bought the house

8:04 am

color depends on acidity of soil . . .

8:04 am

which doesn't explain why mine bloom BOTH pink and blue! LOL

8:05 am

it's magic une lol

8:05 am

we don't see many deer around here I should put up a free lunch sign

8:06 am

The deer don't eat my hostas because those are close to the house and the deer must be afraid to get that close.

8:06 am

here's a website re hydrangea color: http://tinyurl.com/rup84

thanks une

TY, Une

Time to dive into the grid--I have been chatting and reading the newspaper.

8:08 am

A tufted titmouse just arrived at the birdfeeder--beautiful.

morning, hursh :-)

8:10 am

8:10 am

Hi hurshy. Why? Living in the woods, with birdfeeders all around and many varieties of birds?

8:10 am

good website une looks like I'll have to spray paint the whites if I want color

8:10 am

west LOL!!!

8:10 am

good morning hursh

Haha, westford. No one will notice from a distance.

8:11 am

and I'm off to get ready have a good day all

8:11 am

well, being into birds and flowers and knowing stuff about them, having a career where you make a difference, being all active with friends and stuff, no husband...

8:12 am

Yes, I am happy with my choices, hurshy. I am blessed. Are you having marital issues?

8:13 am

always *wry smile*

8:13 am

Aw....what are your plans?

8:14 am

to keep a stiff(ish) upper lip and accept that my life is what it is

8:14 am

No separation planned?

8:15 am

nah, tried that before, felt too guilty

8:15 am

Is he happy?

8:15 am

Phantom = respite

8:16 am

i don't think he's happy exactly but he wants our relationship to be better, not un-married

8:16 am

Are you optimistic?

8:16 am

born pessimist

Hi Jean! How are you?

gm jean

:-D

viviendo la vida loca Scrabs

8:19 am

Besides naked, of course, Jean

that's becoming a problem Scrabs . . . sometimes I forget I have to put clothes on when I go out of the house

8:20 am

Jean, let me give you a warning from my current personal experience. Do not search for dry wood for a camp fire when naked after skinnydipping. I have poison ivy, and in some uncomfortable locations.

OMG woman! What a bad idea

8:22 am

I know the plant but it must have been hidden and I was not careful enough. The itch is intense.

not for nuthin, but with all your woodsy knowledge, you don't scout your campsites for such things?

oh scrabs, I'm sorry but that did make me laugh

ah I see

did you have someone pee on it for you?

8:22 am

Oh, yes, Jean, I am realizing once again what a moron I am.

oh on your worst day you could never be a moron!

8:23 am

that works for poison ivy as well as jellyfish?

8:23 am

Will that help, Jean?

was reading back in the log, Scrabs you are right about the tufted titmouse. It is a beautiful bird

8:24 am

I like the way they fly--up and down through the air

I had a nest of them in my little birdhouse a couple of years ago and what a delight to watch the little ones when they finally left the nest

hey are you two NEW here? You don't ever want to take any of MY advice too seriously

8:25 am

ok, who said something about re words yesterday?

8:25 am

they're back

8:25 am

I have a nest behind me (I am on the roofed portion of my back deck), on a fan vent, and there has been a nest here for several years, first used by robins but this year with Northern juncos. The junco pair has had 2 broods of babies so far this year.

8:25 am

Hi Sue

my more grown up suggestion would be an oatmeal bath Scrabs

8:26 am

I am applying steroid cream and anti-itch stuff and ice packs.

oh my those juncos have been busy little birdies

is it just on your lower parts?

8:27 am

I am wondering how this grid can have 300 words as the words are not jumping out at me.

8:28 am

Neck, arms, trunk, crotch, legs--all tiny patches.

the first hundred jumped out but things have stopped jumping now

8:28 am

aer

are you able to be in the clinic with that?

8:28 am

are you sure it is poison ivy, then, and not something else?

8:30 am

It's not contagious nor so awful that it would stun people. And I do wonder if it could be something else, a omen to some other terrible disease, but it fits with poison ivy given my exposure and timing and itch.

I once suggested to my sister that she rub some poison ivy into her (putz) husband's underwear

8:30 am

Oakier is not a word. Harumph.

which she did, with good results

8:31 am

Yikes, did she, Jean?

oh my Jean!

8:31 am

i just thought if it's so spread around maybe is something you ate... seems like you would have had to roll in the stuff to get it all over

he deserved it

8:31 am

Oh, no, but did he "deserve" it?

hey, I must be psychic!

8:32 am

Hurshy, if I had the rhus oil (poison ivy leaves have this) on my hands then wherever I touched would get it, plus my legs rubbed against it.

8:33 am

You are that among other things, Jean, including hilarious.

8:33 am

you can test yourself, can't you? i mean at work.

ty, tyvm, I'll be here all weekend

8:34 am

I couldn't get tickets to your other shows, Jean, just this one.

8:34 am

I am living the te4 now, Hurshy. First time in my life.

8:35 am

*not sure what that means exactly*

8:36 am

I wasn't sure what you meant by te**ing myself at work.

8:37 am

like, don't you have, you know, medical te4s you can do to see if it is poison ivy or something else

8:37 am

I believe that about 50% of people are allergic to rhus oil and I figured I was not allergic since I have never gotten a rash despite hiking in the woods.

Hey I have a bird question maybe someone can answer for me

8:38 am

I see now. Well, I could see a dermatologist, but this rash seems classic and my exposure was last Friday.

8:38 am

morning, folks

Scrabs could it be poison shumack

8:38 am

Hi welki

mornnig welki

sumac

8:39 am

Yes, some other plant, but it seems like a typical "allergic contact dermatitis".

thanks Jean I knew i wasnt spelling it correctly

BIRD

8:41 am

yup

QUESTION

hi hoot

8:41 am

yup!

ask away Jean

8:42 am

been waiting to hear that question for a while .. bird must be all grown up already :)

8:42 am

Speaking of birds, here's Hootowl! Hi Hootowl!

8:42 am

Ready, Jean.

8:42 am

hihihi

8:42 am

hi nan, hoot

ok - there is some sort of shore bird that I see outside my window

body is maybe 10-12 "

stands on rocks or shore to feed, does not actually wade in the water

has some brown around the chest and when it flies I see purple underneath

8:43 am

runs away from the water?

no crest or anything

sometimes sits on a tree branch

8:44 am

where are you and fresh water or salt?

mostly he stands on rocks in the shallow end of the pond

fresh water, Illinois

8:44 am

white?

no dark color, I see brown and on the underside when he flies, purple

not a heron or egret, I know those and his legs are not that long

8:46 am

what color is the top of his head?

kinda black, no crest or anything

8:46 am

Piper or plover, maybe?

8:46 am

but what's on top ? looking in bird book

smooth head

8:47 am

aha! maybe it is a heron .. there are smaller herons, check out the green backed heron (16" tall, shorter legs)

I think I know pipers or plovers from beach, I have never seen this one except here

ok going to google

8:48 am

here: http://www.bio-diversity-nevis.org/ima ges/Nevis%20Birds/Shore%20Birds/Green% 20Heron.jpg

8:48 am

long beak or short

8:48 am

Green herons are smaller--rusty colored and greenish

8:48 am

was the dark head that made me think of them

BINGO!!

8:50 am

:)

your folks are brilliant

8:50 am

yup - I see it too. Probably juvenile

8:50 am

Yippee, bird ID class has been successful.

I stand in awe!

ok, I have another question: why don't I ever see baby herons, egrets or cormorants?

8:51 am

Didn't use my usual bird book because it never has what I'M looking for. Yours, of course, was!

8:52 am

years ago, i had a nesting pair of great blue herons in my yard; i lived at a convergence of stream and river. i watched them constantly and decided that, if i could be a bird, i'd be a heron ... my nick on the net used to be

8:52 am

'heron' .. wasn't available here. my license plate is 'heron' .. they are magnificent

8:53 am

you don't see them because, by the time they are fledglings, they are almost full grown .. you'd barely notice the difference between juvies and adults

8:53 am

Probably hidden and protected from predators, is my guess.

ty welki

8:54 am

and since juveniles are marked differently from parents you might think them another species.

so when you had the nesting pair you never saw the babies?

8:55 am

I saw my junco babies here--and heard them. Hummingbird is here! It is hovering amongst flowers of garden.

8:56 am

i saw what i thought were the babies .. but only in flight or standing very still in the water. can never be 100% certain unless you see three at a time .. and i never did

I LOVE HUMMINGBIRDS!

saw such wonderful ones in Costa Rica

8:56 am

direst

8:56 am

It may come closer to me where I have a hummingbird feeder hanging.

8:57 am

We only get the ruby throated ones here

8:57 am

Perfect clue, Hootowl.

8:57 am

nuts!

8:57 am

only the best.....

In Italian gatto = cat.

9:01 am

9:48 am

That's always a good sign. Just keep on writing!

9:50 am

good morning, everyone

9:50 am

1:52 pm

Hi Owl + teamrivas

1:52 pm

Hi team

i went to tile store yesterday to try to pick out bathroom tile

1:53 pm

Dorens, It is pouring here now

it was very educational. now must get vanity

1:53 pm

Owl, Did you get tile?

1:53 pm

seriously? I can see sunlight filtering through the trees in my back and it looks so nice

1:54 pm

oh picking tile is such fun owl

no. still too much to do. however, i was wavcering between subway tile and a natural product. then i found a carrera subway tile!

1:54 pm

yep, pouring buckets, rain too

1:54 pm

Owl, I could not find a erfect match for the cracked tile so I will replace an area with something close. I am thinking of the "Bathfitter" replacement--entire covering for shower/tub/walls.

1:55 pm

ssounds nice.. (nice owl, not nice annie)

i thought stone would be too mcuh however, found a ceramic i liked and with the extra border and the bullnose, it was TWICE as much

1:55 pm

I loved looking through Lowe's---gave me so many ideas for home projects

1:56 pm

I bought a new bathroom vanity at Home Depot and I love it.

2:31 pm

wrong consonant

2:32 pm

jbv, my daughter and son-in-law are medics based out of robert woods johnson .. very close to you :)

2:33 pm

my second home, welki - hubby has been treated there for years, we have a regular standing appointment biweekly

2:34 pm

she delivered a baby there in may .. probably passed each other in the halls (except that place is HUGE!)

2:34 pm

Alright, I must get some more chores do4--be back later.

2:34 pm

oh! congratulations on the baby! yes, it's quite a big hospital - what is their area of specialization?

later scrabs

2:35 pm

they're paramedics, jbv, not physicians

2:35 pm

2:38 pm

that's interesting that they both have the same job -pretty stressful, I'd imagine

2:38 pm

chat's lagging for me :(

2:40 pm

i suppose that some calls are pretty traumatic; i ran on an volunteer squad in sussex county as an emt for years. because i am a retired emt, my daughter received a hefty scholarship towards her tuition.

nm

2:41 pm

hehe, i think the most stressful part for them is trying to arrange time off together, especially now that there's a baby in the picture

2:41 pm

sp 7 = first 4 letters of a ghost, + robot ending

2:57 pm

drusy is a rock/mineral formation

2:58 pm

hi jbp - od 5 - poet

2:58 pm

is it particular to jewelry? i'm at sg's website and there are gemstone rings that are made of various forms of drusy

2:58 pm

don't get confused everyone - we are two different people, both jb's :)

2:58 pm

thanks JBV

welki - a drusy is formation of crystals (water seeping through minerals) like geodes. They take certain geodes, cut them and coat them with titanium (a transition metal) in a vacuum with an electrical current passing through the solution of Ti and probably an acid. The variations of voltage in the current are what cause the Ti to deposit in rainbow colors.

5:46 pm

5:46 pm

5:46 pm

5:48 pm

hi sis

5:48 pm

Hello NRKii!

5:48 pm

Hey Pini!

hey car!

5:49 pm

thank goodness for Lickety today! I can't imagine trying to do this grid without...

5:49 pm

SG! How are you today?

5:50 pm

I was on for a while earlier and am only at 150...so I think it will be a little slow going for me!

I am needing red wine NOW. This puzzle is hard

I am eaxtly at your point

5:50 pm

forget the glasses, just pass the whole bottle!

5:50 pm

And I am exactly at YOUR point...the red wine STAT point!

5:51 pm

LOL! Have you seen the wine glass that holds a whole bottle of wine? So one can look "more elegant" than drinking out of the bottle!

5:51 pm

oh, now there's a thought, sis!

I am going to the liquor store for wine and beer for the DH. He thinks I am crazy....all I do is Facebook and Babble

5:52 pm

I'll have some Captain Morgan, please...

5:52 pm

welcome to our worlds, science!

I hate having addictions!

And, I know that DH eexpects me to cook dinner! LOL

5:53 pm

But this addiction is GOOD for our brain cells...

5:53 pm

yeah, that's why I keep coming back to play, science!

5:54 pm

I think I now officially dislike grids with OID in them.

5:54 pm

Stop at the drive thru on the way home from the liquor store!

I think there should be an OINK in here

5:55 pm

yes i have had a few of those Nrkii..lol

5:56 pm

my phantom today: pirate....have Capt. Jack & Will Turner on the brain I guess! Yee ha!

5:57 pm

nice one, sis

5:57 pm

Unfortunately...they are on my brain just about EVERY day!

5:58 pm

oh, in that case....ummm...nice one, sis! LOL

I suppose I am not the only one who dreams of grids!?

Going for vino

6:00 pm

most likely not, science

6:02 pm

definitely not, sciencegeek! :-)

6:02 pm

ok...power nap time (90F and muggy outside and Koda's already out like a light)

6:02 pm

bbiab

6:02 pm

I see them when I close my eyes. Not necessarily the one I am working on...just letters and I connect them to make words. Yes...I'm sick!

6:02 pm

bye pini!

6:03 pm

6:03 pm

thanks, BR. been waiting to use that one tonight

work was long, not so simple.

8:44 pm

ty babble

8:47 pm

some people, no doubt, benefited from your presence

I hope so. I was unfortunately not very nice to another Nurse, who was not very skilled in her job.

8:50 pm

did you apologize red?

8:51 pm

same one, red?

Actually i did not. SHe was not competent in her job and was asking me to do it, and then whineing when I did not have time to do her job.

After starting about 4 of her IV's walking her through a Severe SVT etc...I thought her inability to count a mothers pulse and a fetal Pulse was ridiculous.

I might apologize tomorro.

8:53 pm

Glad she wasn't my nurse.

8:53 pm

was she under stress? (like you nurses don't have any), maybe she needs to go back and do her internships over.

8:53 pm

first ro7/28 please?

8:54 pm

it's a no win situation, isn't it, red? if you don't do it for her, then your work appears deficient on your charts .. if you do do it for her, then you're doing 2x your work. my kids experience the same thing in the ambulance

8:54 pm

well that didn't get it..i had both of those previous clues. I'm missing the re 8/40 and the re 9/60 right after it.

8:54 pm

to6/21 pls

8:54 pm

ro + a female sib: s*****

8:54 pm

...nevermind the charts, welki! (dumba%%) .. what about the patients!

8:54 pm

like the male chicken but with another vowel inplace of one of the double vowels

It's that Welki. Plus this is a skill that is so basic and simple. I got someone to show her how to do it better, and she then refused to go in the room and learn from him. And THEN, she got annoyed when I asked her to start a simple IV for me...grrrr.

8:55 pm

txBR!!

Oops, I am sorry I am venting. stopping now.

8:55 pm

*pops in to see what's up after 23 hours of power outage, sighs at the sight of 300* - don't think I can do that many in 3 hours :(

I need to be more patient with the staff

LOL Gwenski....I have 168 left and almost done.

8:58 pm

Why? Patients aren't patient with staff! :)

8:59 pm

i always root for meritocracy but for some reason incompetence seems to rule

8:59 pm

but then i'm a cynic

9:00 pm

or rather mediocrity

9:00 pm

in the medical field i sure want my practioners to be competent!

9:00 pm

finally, FIREWORKS

Patients are sick, they aren;t supposed to be patient, but I must be patient with the staff, we all make errors, and some times people just focus on themselves and forget about others.

Tertiare ran on ahead, slipped on the wet grass and hurt her ankle when she slammed into one of the planets. Secondo summed it up thusly: "Tertiare fell down a hill and slammed into Uranus!"

yes you are JC lol

11:08 pm

I am the do4,9 word . . . :P

11:09 pm

actually, primo's real first name is almost in the grid today, and his girlfriend's name IS in the grid today. it's a good day

11:09 pm

before that one gwen

11:09 pm

My real first name will never be in the grid . . .

11:09 pm

Or my surname . . .

OYSH, i got a ways to go!

11:09 pm

But my middle name could be.

11:09 pm

this grid has the most peculiar words in it

11:09 pm

change the secOnd vowel ruru to anIther

11:10 pm

(At some point.)

11:11 pm

not following pav

11:11 pm

a nerd? you, ruru? Why, i am shocked, LOL

11:11 pm

instead of the male hen, change the 2nd vOwel to another

11:12 pm

thanks pav

11:12 pm

sounds like those clammy things on the half shells...

11:13 pm

ooh, I could be on to a miracle cure here - have one tiny little dot of poison ivy on my arm, and the cat has been licking it for maybe four minutes...hmmmm

11:13 pm

morewords has totally saved me tonight..would never find some of these words otherwise

11:13 pm

now, my last word in the ir6 30 which doesn't appear to be related to the ir5 before it...

11:13 pm

I'm worse than ruru - I'm a do4,9 . . . and Kazozz can verify that! :P

11:13 pm

That's working, Trif?

four words left and very stuck re8 last one, ko4, pr5/12 first one and io6/21 last one any help would be greatly appreciated

11:14 pm

:) uh huh

11:14 pm

JC I'm not finding dodo in the grid today...

11:14 pm

Another American contact has poison ivy at the moment.

11:14 pm

Doesn't sound like fun - similar to our stinging nettles?

11:14 pm

une or scrabbler - we all have it

11:14 pm

io6 = salt

11:14 pm

Erm, I'm not a dodo, PAV3 . . .

11:15 pm

change ending on the re *eye* 6 word before the 8 sudoku

11:15 pm

not at all JC - nettle stings go away after about what, 20 minutes? poison ivy is a three week joy

11:15 pm

hello everyone

11:15 pm

Suduko...last re8 follows the words before it, but ends withthe robotic ending

11:15 pm

11:16 pm

t+ot*** sea animal

11:16 pm

my last two words are the ir 5 / 18 and the ir 6 / 30 - are they a combo? any clues for these two - i cannot monkey them at all

11:16 pm

ko sounds like middle part of an apple

11:16 pm

I actually don't get it very badly. hardly at all. poor scrabbler is really suffering with it. steroids, antihistamines, the whole thing

11:16 pm

Hmmm, PAV3 . . . then you don't know me too well? :P
