hugs jili
ty, Dee, dart, and a big HI! to you both!
HAHA - I just guessed a word, because I thought it should be one. I tried starting it with a few different letters, and one finally worked.
hi rb
100 down -- enough for tonight -- see you tomorrow :)
that's fun, isn't it, JC
wowie, nan!
For an so6,21 and so7,32 . . .
<-- Rewards his monkeys!
Yes, Jilli - definitely! ;)
i havent gotten to my usual 66 and am struggling
change the second letter jc
Hmmm, dart?
ty, dart
Second letter?
Oh yes, I see - thank you, dart! :)
J.C. Is that SO 6 a word we should know?
No, MLFAN - it wasn't one familiar to me on a conscious level, if that makes sense? I merely thought it would probably be a word, although I tried various letters to start it with!
I have probably heard or seen it before, somewhere along the line . . .
thanks J.C that does makes sense
if you change the first letter of the first pair you found jc you'll find 2 more
Good, I'm glad I'm actually making some sense, this early in the morning! :P
Oh thank you, dart - trying that!
ty again, dart! I'm scooping these up as fast as you can toss 'em out, lol!
what time there J./C.?.
Got'em, dart - thank you again!!! :)
and you can drop the second letter for a 4, 5, 6
:)
oooh, ty, book!
Igot a SO 6/7...complete guess!
thanks book
I am exactly half-way, now.
way past me, JC!
Oh, knowing you, you'll surpass me in no time, Jilli! ;)
not at all, JC -- thick as a plank tonight
phants oneself himself boyish
I like the lower right 9 tiles, I got so4, fo4, yo4, mo4, co4, lo4...all with the same last 2 letters - fun!
phantom - committee, committees
I think I can safely say that's something you never are, Jilli . . . ;)
I only have 45 words, QED
thank you rb
For now, Jilli . . . for now. ;)
still hot weather there jilli?
You tend to suddenly overtake me, no matter how far ahead I might be. :P
jill i am not far ahead of you
change the second letter for two more
can't keep eyes open, night all have fun

I'm definitley not as camera friendly as JC so I figured I'd best serve all by posting pics of more candied eyes...
Mmmm, oh my goodness, PAV3 - what are you trying to do to us in here, with that picture? :P ~~~ *DROOLS!*
Erm, PAV - I certaily wouldn't be posing for a picture like that, if that's today's icon theme! :P I'm not THAT camera-friendly!!! HAHAHA . . .

I almost said "if you'll excuse the expression"
It's still not in, Jilli - which is strange!
HAHAHA, well YOU can do a straight reply, Jilli - might be decidedly more difficult for me, though! ;)
HAHA and hello, ruru! ;)
patience is a virtue, JC -- but the main point is "don't worry"
can you please give the stats for the am words arb?

PAV3 is in there Jilli - I'm sure he'll keep you company.
I hope he took his icon with him
HAHAHA!!!
That's mean, Jilli - shouldn't he have left it here, for me to enjoy? :/
personally I never go anywhere without my icon
can't we share, JC?
Hmmm . . .
Well, you can have him, Jilli - I do have one of my own! ;)
so far I have 3 cl; 6 co... missing 3
I don't either, ruru - not that I have much choice in the matter, as currently, it's my face. :P

If you can see this from the PB . . .
yes JC?
That e-mail still hasn't arrived - any chance you can re-send it, please?
sure -- will do now...
Thank you - can't understand why it hasn't come in!
your icon is blocking it
Hmmm, ruru? :P
JC -- re-sent as "Q & A repeat" to the address in your email.
Yes - thank you! Got it and replied, Jilli . . .
strange about the first attempt
Yes, rather!
well.. you know what they always say about the first attempt...
man I am blind... totally cannot find a co 5 and a co 6...
Phantom: 'FETISH'. Of course, I would see that. :P
Hmmm . . . mine wasn't so bad, ruru! ;)
the 6 is not a plural of the 5 Dee
I have a co 5 which is the pl of a co4
I am missing the 5 and the 6 toward the end of the list (I think)
2nd co 6 is a pl
co 5 co plus abbreviation for high peak plus vowel
think french word for Count
could it be co + abb for a mountain + a common vowel?
lol vash.. we think alike

light cream is half and half, heavy is whipping cream
ty for your patience
cream -- light would be 10% butter-fat, heavy would be 33% like whipping cream. There's also half and half, not sure of the percentage. At least that's how I understand it, mari.
"there's also half and half, not sure of the percentage"
LOL

I love that word BR!
hello, westford
painter just got here
hi bab and red and lyn
how many coats of paint is the possum getting, west?
re octo mom do you think she wants a do-over?
TY BR a nice 6/7 to leave on. Bye all
be well, lyn
Bye Lynxx.
bye lyn
I dont know, West, I think she just needs more help, and I personally think some of those children would be better served with a different family...
didn't she just sign for a reality show?
She did, but who can give 14 kids the attention they need. the ratio is lower at daycares.
I know it's like having daycare and the kids don't ever go home
but its just my opinion, not some expert statement.
when they used to have big families the older ones looked after the younger ones
and I could not even manage one child. I dont know how she does it.
but when you have 8 the same age...
My best friend from Nursing school has 6, and they do help her with the younger ones, but they are all single births and spaced out, the oldest was 9 when the youngest was born.
that's still close..my oldest was 4 1/2 when our youngest was born..we stopped at 4
we had no idea what was causing it
LOL Westford!
btw red I love your icon but you need to change your explanation..when I look at it I get virus
unless that virus looks like bunnies?
No I am just lazy, change the icon for bunny day, but not the blurb.
mine is left over from Monday
yours is nice. cute joey.
I suppose I could stretch it and say it was a big rabbit lol
I dont think its even related to rabbits....
Cassie said they love doritos
really?
her group met a woman who rescues baby kangaroos ( orphans ) and they are very tame
thats really neat.
I know. She had such a great time in Oz was there for a month
hi all

*tear even Hi Haz TO Nono et al :)

geesh, cant type this morning, Hello Aaz
is there a list somewhere?
Hello TO, FM, Nono,hurshy and all other babblers.
lol it must be contagious no no!
hello everyone!
we save our typing skills for the grid itself, the chog gets the best of what is left over.
the yo 4/8 is not bostonian, but is the plural of a transposed lad
Hello Annie - nice to see you!
babanon
Hi Annie!
great clue BR ty
hi Annie
hi annie!
Hi Haz, I see I am still # 1 on the book bestseller list
Hi FM, Nono, Owl
Absolutely, Annie, I see no prospect of you being put off top spot.
Haz, your list is hilarious! feel free to add my own bestseller: happy marriage tips, by Trifioso
Trif, you are too much
unless I invoce my first name, that would bump Annie off the top of the list, but I will be happy to stay where I am :D
in a good way, annie?
LOL Trif!
I will! Movieman suggested a couple for him, either 'My life as a Manchester United supporter' or 'My hatred of modern films'
movie man! what a riot....
smittal: n. the act of falling head over heels
a jock
I can see the list growing with much hilarity.
If you cut MM in two, he'd bleed Chelsea blue blood.
Trif, I meant that in the best possible way..
I am wondering what aknitters book would be called? "patterns I haven't tried?"
What about 'Crochet -----Aknitter'
or "Secret Tales of Crocheing"
Luckily adter Haz cuts movieman in two to see his blue blood, she'll be so good at sewing him back up again.
nope, she is an ace crocheter too! honestly I wish you all could see the amazing things she creates - she is so talented! She makes little craft things out of everything!
Vicuna! The Diva has arrived. (Earplugs everyone)
is that a word -- crocheter?
LOL Haz, great minds think alike!
Crochetist?
isn't there someone who could write a book about the bad points of John Barrowman?
Vi!!!!!!!!
No need for me to sing. Just buy my book and listen to the enclosed CD.
is it ata?
i can't think of a book for me. i mean i can, but not necessarily one that would resonate with babble friends.
Hello, everyone!
hi, all. Haz: what do you think my book title would be?
hi vi@
How generous of you, Vicuna! I hadn't thought of the free gift angle.
Angelsong - Spend spend spend
I remember cracking up laughing when I saw that in French, Captain Hook is named "captain crochet" = not quite so menacing, is it???
"Crocheter" had better be a word - I'm working ona real book that includes one! lol
LOL!!! I love it, Haz!!!!
LOL Haz, hope you are scribbling these titles dow.
Glad you like it, Angel - it's just entirely opposite to anything you would write.
Hmmm - Satanic chants, by Angelsong?
:) trif
How to Be an Optimist, by hurshy ?
I've written them down, I'll incorporate them soon.
got one!!! Great doctors I have worked with, by Scrabbler
Spend Spend Spend was the title of a film or documentary wasn't ti about one of the earliest Football Pools winners in the UK back in the 60's if I recall? and how it all went very wrong.
Always look on the bright side of life - hurshy, also comes to mind
ah, you are so much more creative with the titles
typing made easy by owl
alternatively, "the rabbit cookbook" by Scrabbler
Yes, Viv Nicholson won a huge amount of money, claimed she was going to spend spend spend. She did and wound up broke.
LOL TO
Well duh!
ouch Trif :)
lol Trifioso! By Scrabbler and Elmer Fudd =)
"the complete book of cat care" by Dan2
I still like "great doctors I have worked with" by scrabbler better though....
I'm just scared Scrabbler would turn green if she saw her name linked to cooking rabbits. I'm hoping the George Clooney title will help her through her delusions.
Scrabbler's already green. At least, her rabbit is.
beheading the richard by scrabbler
good one BR
Yes, he's not anybody's favourite, is he?
nope
lyte
"staying out of the PB", by aebmusica
*grin*
list on babanon today?
lol!
yes TO thanks to Babbler BryanC
"live a list free life" by lickety
Listless in Sydney?
YES!!! Haz! excellent!
Duly noted. This is turning out to be a collaborative effort, a bit like babble itself.
Something about how slow Sprite is?
"say YES to babble" by nononanette
remember the bablble store?
a clue for the au would be welcome
Is it still up in Babanon, TO?
nm got the au
yay found the needlecase (and pl) without prompting.
i don't know
Ah yes, where would I be without my trusty needlecase?
ty fm i blame you for those three new words
yw TO :)
sew lost, haz?
Absolutely.
au 6/24 is an affliction which makes the sufferers remote from their world
good morning everyone:)
Haz's critique on the Bayeux Tapestry
Hello cross!
The thought of it makes me unsteady, FM.
hi crossy!
bonne matin, crossy!
or bon matin, j'oublie
all 230 feet of it Haz.
do you reckon "bayeux" is where we got the word "bayou" down south???
Good Morning Crossy
(((crossy)))
Hi crossy
needing a co5 and co 6/24 after the unconscious state
I don't know, Trif. It's possible.
bonjour à vous aussi bien triff
Trif, according to the dic, no.
fm:)) ((()))
co5 - French rendition of count, as in Dracula.
fireworks
How are you crossy and you dear lady?
Congrats Angel
Or co5 - anagram of heavenly whizzy thing and its plural co6
congrats,
congrats Angel
ty haz. must be the set before it i lack.
Bonjour ! Est-ce que chacun sur un coup-de-pied français est ce matin ? :D
bayou: Etymology: Louisiana French, from Choctaw bayuk
So do I, in that case.
congrats, angel
*chews on heavenly whizzy thing*
we are well and putting up the good fight in theese nasty economic times;)the umbrella of love keeps most of the rain away...mmm...think i need tea and meds lol
Bonjour, Madi.
Think Haley, TO.
got that far...
Hi Madi, haven't se4 you for a while!
i have a co5/24 all co*** cozy
Then switch last two letters around.
is that another clue for the count?
Yes - but you've got it already, sorry for confusion.
i am confusing myself...need co5/14 & 6/30
Then the French count would fit those, but not listing yet so don't know if there's another pair.
ty nono. that appears to be one of them!
Oh Haz, another title for you - "Trolls we have loved and missed" by all babblers
Good one, FM.
may be count but missing the p nes pas?
the pl counts are 5/24. Is there supposed to be a co5/30?
didn't mean any harm, madi - just trying to say hey to crossy, really!
there is a 6/30 Vi
Vi all is well with you? Good to see you!
Okay, thanks.
om am so rusty,if my french offends,im sorry
moi aussi, crossy!
i should go back to just using it in bars at closing time:)
Yep, always well thanks, FM. Yourself?
anyone have that co6/30?
co +The Secret Life of Walter **** leave out a cons.
ty.
Thanks, Nono.
yw
thanks, Nono
Must help husband load up car for a trip to the dump. Back in a bit.
It's the title rather than the verb, crossy for the French count thing.
You know how to live dangerously, Vi.
like i say,very rusty
Good morning, babbleland!
ok so only a 5/12 left for co
Morning, all. Off to the PB with you, Haz.
Why can't they just speak English?
Well spotted, Judi! (gritting teeth and pretending to be gracious)
Hello Nonnie.
hi judi hi nonnie
*waves* Off you go!
Haz is starting to qualify for a lifetime pass to the PB along with so many of us!
Hi Nonnie and Judi
i ask that as well haz,but we have this big province to the left of us where you will get ignored and wont even be able to get so much as a hamburger unless you can fale the lingo a tad;)) when we do go out east we try to hit the border at night and drive right through;)
hiya judi, TO, haz, and annie!
Silent observation is less dangerous.
right that is
anyone have the first am 7 and am 8?
phone
eww there are vermin in the grid
But it IS a lovely language, cross, so I forgive them.
crossy, there used to a be a parent at gymnastics who must have been from that province -- he would go on and on about how they had a "right" to speak french, as they were their "first" and yadda yadda. I got all fed up and uppity one day, and asked him how much Algonquin and MicMac he spoke, and he shut up FAST>
am7 - one of the Little Women, plus not to win.
i dont because your standing there looking like a fool and you KNOW the person in front of you knows english and they are just watching you sweat lol
good one trif!!
KMS - think short for for bullets and add a word that means an area or a building plot.
We were in France on holiday - the lady in the hotel spoke French the whole time to me, gave no clue that there was any alternative, until the final morning when she revealed that she spoke beautiful English.
im hindsight,we should of left it all in the hands of the first nation:/
HI all!
that goes for the USA too cross
howdy science
Hello science.
4 left and all s's ugh and the film I want to watch is just about to start.
Haz, I have usually had the other experience - I was speaking French with a man at a store, forgot a word I needed, turned to ask DH for it, but forgot to ask in French, and then when I turned back to the shop assistant, he wouldn't speak French with me any more. what a le tool!
hiya science
good morning science!
Hi science
hi science
They are strange people, Trif, when it comes to their language.
but i have found that if i start waving cash around,they find thier english in a hurry lol
Is there a list anywhere? I have 8 words to go and a bit stuck.
oui. c'est vrai
I love the language, not necessarily all those who speak it.
finally got the am words. thanks FMItch
the exception is old quebc city
List is on BabAnon anike
they are so nice and helpfull and the area is amazing
I heard a man tell a parisian shopkeeper, "if it wasn't for the allies, you;d be speaking german"
mind you, so are americans! how many of us had immigrant forbears, but get completely impatient with new arrivals that can't instantly speak the language? I hate that. I always give people a chance. English is hard to learn, and if they are trying, I try to help them.
yw KMS
Seriously, Esprit? Such graciousness..
lol esprit
I love hearing different languages and am always grateful when someone is patient with me. I try to do the same.
it was in the context of the shopkeeper refusing to speak english to someone who did not know french
I think they lo4 out on more than just business when they act like that, jean.
yes
It is an unacceptable thing to say but it is still felt by some of those that survived the 2nd word war.
i got one for you esprit...i knew of a pilot who was landing at a german airport and he was unfamilliar with the configuration of the place so when the traffic control asks him to line up on a certain runway he asks them to repeat and the controller says "what is the matter with you havent you flown over germany before?" and the pilot responds, "actually i have but it was dark,1944 and i never landed" :))
WHOA crossy!
When my parents generation die we will lose contact with first line memories of the 2nd WW. It become history from that point on. The direct contact is lost. (more or less).
good one
we have the last holocaust memorial museum that will ever be built with input from survivors, just opened in April
when a old person dies,a library burns to the ground fm:/
You all lost the last two surviving WWI vets within a two week period last month, FM. Both were well over 100 years old!
exactly crossy. Good to hear that Esprit, even though I am of no faith.
we had one who was 108 i believe
Talking of burning down - Rathfriland's fire station (small local place) burned down the other night. The TV announcer solemnly declared 'There were no smoke alarms in the building'
yes, and the last titanic survivor passed recently too, I believe, right?
Yes, Milvina Dean passed away a few months ago.
Yes Nonnie one was 113 years old and the other near that age too - and there went their link with that history too.
can you imagine 113 years...
LOL Haz, really?
no crossy...I can't!
Frankly - no I can't crossy and not sure I would want to.
when I was a missionary, I met one of the last remaining Carib Indians in the region. It was amazing to shake his hand, listen to his language, and realize that a people that once numbered in the hundreds of thousands was slowly disappearing
Yes. Local firemen got the call, then realised that it was their own building on fire. You couldn't make it up.
ahhahhaa...my grandmother's name is Ina Melvina (momma didn't name me after her :o) )
go into a retirement home ay 90 and hang around for 23 more years..sheesh
HOw funny but not but can't help laughing, such irony.
Bet the press had a field day.
speaking of which my grammy turns 100 this year:)
Yes, pictures of burned out fire appliances etc.
congrats to grammy, crossy!
LOL nonnie! my poor friend christine really lost the grandma name lottery - her mum is named "rhoda" and her mil named "wilma." NO girls named after their grannies in that family!
the britt p.m is to give her a b-day letter i believe
Wasn't Fred Flintstones wife called Wilma? that really must have put a kybosh on that name!
fireworks
huzzah for anike!!!!
It actually makes sense not to keep the same names going throughout the generations - it makes it much easier when you come to do family research if the same names aren't cropping up the whole time. (Not that I'm bitter, or anything)
congrats anike!
yaa for anike!
Congrats anike.
Not sure i like this grid today or maybe i just need coffee
lol haz i traced my family tree and it is not a pretty thing..all theves,cutthroats, and one who ran around with a 19 year old princess with his tongue hanging out lol
HEEELP!! I am going cross eyed trying to find first am7/8 I appreciate any help available before I put my foot through the screen!!!!
True, haz. I worked with a fellow who named each one of his sons (and there were several) after him...Charles II, Charles III, Charles, IV. I think he missed something somewhere.
Haz imagine what faily trees might look like in the future with offspring being named after places where they ahve been concieved plus all the copycat stars names!
TY - I started hours ago and got to 112 very quickly but had to go out and have been in and out about three times to do a few word here and there so finally happy to be finished
like george foreman
okay, I need to get ready to motor. have a good day all, and I hope to see you later tonight! moochas smoochas!
I've uncovered a few things not talked about before, but nothing criminal yet.
Bye Trif.
wonder if he was a big egotistic and self-centered nonnie
sciencegeek, engage cruise control, and vroom vroom vroom on through
bye bye trif
Bye Trif
Where is a list?
Hi ruru!
FM - the mind boggles, plus if the parents aren't married, or multiple step sisters etc, it'll be pretty traumatic to trace back.
On BabAnon Science
am7/8 + am + zero + position and plural
babanon
He didn't seem to be that way. I do think it makes things easier when you're hollering at the kids. I tend to call all my the same name anyway lol
How do I get to the list? I have that open but dont see where the list is located
Hello ruru.
Nice clue Anike many thanks
general bryon
No probs
Hiya Haz and FM
ruru
yes science?
science - go to the General option and then you will see lists. Failing that I will copy and pate it into my babble bio if you give me a mo.
Just HI
oh.. hi too!
I like the latter Mitch!
OK NP give me a mo
I see susan boyle is in the grid today
breakfast I'll see you all later
I noticed that as well, ruru.
Several weeks ago I forgot to finish the grid and slipped down the rankings drastically - my ranking hasn't changed since, I know its not really the issue but, in October I will be away for two weeks and can only imagine that I will be down in the boondocks again. Can be depressing for someone as pathetic as me.
shhh is vi still here?!
Why, are you going to say something about her singing?
Ha! Looks like I got back in the nick of time, TO!
Good job you asked, TO!
I think she has a wonderful singing voice
OK stats thanks to BryanC are in my profile.
Yes, Susan Boyle. Not Vicuna.
who? vi or susanboyle?
What you people didn't realize is that Ms Boyle was just lip-syncing to my recording.
(Vi practises the gentle art of self-deception to a remarkable degree)
I suspected that Vicuna... I really did
So, what was it you were going to say, TO, dear?
ty FMitch!
I'm off to bed - see you tomorrow.
um...er...well...how it's a good thing you are not a british subject or suam would have had to sing against you!
yw science and nighty night anike.
I guess I can stop typing hiatus..
Goodnight, anike.
I've got to make a couple of phone calls so back soon.
Bye FM.
ANd ruru, I do appreciate your flattery! =)
Goodnight anike.
bye fm!
Bye for now, FM.
Oh and btw did anyone notice I have changed my icon for Scrabbler? Seeing as I hardly ever change my icon :)
no. i still see a sunflower. is it her birthday?
no its a count down to her new job TO
It's showing as sunflower until I click on it and then I see the bunny.
FM, I noticed immediately. I see a rabbit
I always want to see hiatus in here.
ok i must refresh then
yay Annie, and for the rest I guess a refresh is called for. BRB must make these calls.
On the gird - not the chog@
how can I still have 50 left....
Because it's that sort of grid, ruru.
It is starting to make me frustrated..
I put on rabbits today, too.
You're not going to start throwing things?
(Uh... belated contribution to already finished conversation, I guess...)
thinking about
it
If anything he'll throw rocks, I suppose.
cream pies probably vicuna
ey--
there is one thing that really bothers me about susan boyle though...
What's that?
she got near enough to simon cowell to nail him with a cream pie and failed to do it
Hi Nono! Love the pic!
Oh yes, Simon needs more than a cream pie. Some people are just mean and evil!
Strange how few people cream-pie-nail those who are in a position to judge them...
yes.. but he would be the exception
I don't think he's mean or evil, I think he's been very shrewd in seeing talent and seeing how he can make money from them. His approval is the one most people seek in those shows.
hi all, love all the bunnies!
I guess he is the definitive judge.. the others are fluff
I think his approach is hateful.
I guess this is a hare-raising day?
The whole thing is manipulation, but his judgement is pretty good on who has talent and who hasn't.
Simon simply gets to the point, no messing around with him
I agree haz..
He wouldn't be hateful if people didn't love seeing him do it.
hello everyone...help for the am 7/32 and am 8/45. THX
I dont think he's so much hateful as he is brutally honest
brb need to feed the dog.
am7/32 - ---- and Andy old radio show + place where a building is built
ty ty ty Vicuna!!! made my 39th wedding anniversary day a success!! Off to spend time with husband.
I am off for awhile need to do something else! Bye poof
bye sg
back from getting mail. flowers were mashed, someone was around earlier on scooter delivering flyers and seemed to be a footprint in mulch
lol, R-K-B! Always happy to promote the cause of Love! Happy Anniversary!
Bye science.
i lost flowers earlier this week too. i gues gerberas are too delicate for around the postbox
Happy wedding anniversay, Read-knit-bake!
do you think it is too late to transplant them?
Take a cast of the footprint and track down that miscreant, Detective TO!
That's a shame, TO, I hate seeing footballs landing in my flowers.
i could move them but I think they would be gone for sure
Thanks...yesterday was my birthday so many years ago my husband told me he was my birthday gift...it has been a blissful 39 years although he still does to understand the attraction to Babble..Bye friends
He sounds like a keeper.
bye RKB enjoy the day with your hubby
bye rkb
back again
Thank you all...enjoy the day as well.
Welcome back, FM.
FYI - have sold the apartment.
Congrats!
HOORAY!
you are cute as a bunny today!
subject to contracts and all that stuff
mitch where are you moving to?
Well done - that's great news.
Thanks - the rest of my life can start soon!!
TO the fun/scary part is I haven't decided, but I wll rent for a while and then make decision.
She needs a coast.
that iIS scary but fun!
IOW is a nice place :-)
unless you work then the wages are rubbish.
grrr i am down to two so words
LO zooz and I have a previous sqeeze who owns a property on the Isle but that is not on my places of choice.
i suppose i don`t blame you really.
Now there's a good old fashioned term - a squeeze.
How many so's total, TO?
15
I went all back and white there for a mo Haz :)
oooh, I'm still missing 4 then, so I guess I can't help!
or maybe 14
or was 'squeeze' around in the 60s?
or maybe 3 ;P
missing so7/28
i only have 4 so`s at the mo.
Not sure of the era, but it made me smile.
*looking*
so7/28 - the loneliness ends for the Spanish aunt...
ty!:)
You're welcome.
one left
Thanks!
Glad it worked for you.
fireworks! TY FOR THE CLUES!
Yay for TO!
Congratulations!
yay, TO!!!
WTG Owl
YAY for Owl!!!!!
Yay TO!!
Back in a while
It is 11:15am here and I am off to see The Wizard, bye dear babblers
Nice to see you Annie.
Bye, FM. It's time for me to wander off, too. Bye, all!
Bye, FM
Bye, Vicuna
Cheerio Vi!
Bye all who are leaving.
Bye, Haz, zooz
bye annie, bye vi, bye all! time to go get new sneaks
enjoy the wizard.
Bye TO.
bye haz, bye zooz
Bye owl..have a good day.
Annie, HEY! Received my gift from you yesterday -- thanks so much!! You must have intuited that I've been a big Sopranos fan from Day One! LOL
not like here..i might add..been raining all day.
i think Annie has left to go and see a wizard Une.
so glad I wasn't trying to fly into or out of LaGuardia today!
Such a shame, zooz.
oohhh, ok, thanks, zoom
true..and now my toilet will not flush..and i have taken bits off the back and canot put it back together...not a good day for me..oh well..lol
not that you wanted to hear that..but thought i would shre that with you..haha
Have you got the instructions/DIY book out?
yes..and it looks nothing like what they describe..thought i would save money by DIY..but i have not done too well.
I'm rubbish at trying to interpret diagrams, like you say, they never look anything like what's in front of you.
Any handy neighbours available?
i'm very lucky to have Kevin, the handy guy, across the street . . .
oh how right you are...neighbours here for some reason do not seem to talk to each other..i take it they are too busy with their lives.
That's no use, zooz, what are neighbours for? We've had lots of help in the past from neighbourswho know what to do in all sorts of situations.
it was like that when i lived in oxford Une..neighbours was always helpful.
off to run errands -- good luck zoom!!!
Bye Une.
Bye Une..take care.
later, haz and zoom :-)
well i had better get the hammer out..and give it a bash..that might do something..LOL...bye for now.
Bye zooz. (Hope you're joking about the hammer!)
i am daft for sure...but not that daft..:-)
skip the hammer and go to the post maul
what are your trying to put together zooz?
I think it's parts of a toilet he's trying to put back together.
ahh
too bad,ive ran so many rental properties that i swar i can put a toilt together blinfolded;/
That would be some party trick, crossy.
Back from breakfast. Oooh. Toilet assembly. How educational. NOT!
the rule of thumb with older toilets is,that if a internal part is broket,it is best to buy whole new innards.it is cheaper,easier to install and less of a pain that trying to find some 30 year old part
broken even
Wise words.
and the toilet kits are under 10 dollars;)
Am I living in an alternate universe? I didn't think toilets had that many parts.
Anyway, time I was away to do other things, thankfully nothing involving non-flushing toilets. (Judi, take the top of the cistern off, you'll be amazed)
lift the lid judi;)
Or maybe you have these fancy toilets that are built into the wall?
In anycase, I'd better go - happy babbling!
Yay, I have lifted the lid and seen the internals. I still fear not. No fancy toilets here = or bidets for that matter.
Nothing here but a hole in the floor and a moon on the door.
lets see,ball-cock,flange,various gaskets,2 adjusting screws,ball arm,watertube,overflow pipe,stop flow valve..but now they make that in a all in one vertical float plastic system;) just swap the old junk out and in it goes:0
Hello again Babblers, Crossy have you any bacon?
as a matter of fact red i just bought 2 pounds last night;)
nice maple cured stuff;)
could I have a few crumbles for my seafood salad???
but of course;)
many thanks...
offers ethiopian fair trade coffee in return.
;)
hickory smoked and maple cured is the only way to go;)
*droooool*
I must say, I'm a bit miffed that there is no Lickety's List again today.
thats why I barely ever use it Judi, it really helps on days when Lickety cant do it. Its a free thing he does in his spare time as it is!
Oh, I know, red. I'm just whining. I know Lickety has some family issues right now. A silly little list is and should not be a priority right now.
it does make it easier for the hard ones though.
There's a list up on Babblers Anonymous - of course not all the neat features Lickety includes, but helpful for counts.
I'm weak. I need to be enabled by clues.
good morning, babblers - I find More Words very helpful - usually wait for some personal target, like the last 50 or so before turning there
I have 48 left and I was thinking about going to the list today but I guess not! enabled? with enable the dictionary?
Enabled by the list. I'm down to 78 and rather smacking my head against the wall.
if anyone would like to serve cheese, I'll bring the "whine" - here's how my day started: as if I didn't need a reminder about getting old, my daily newspaper decided to cut half the comics page and of course, guess which ones they cut - what they call the "Classic" comics - all the ones I love! so now I guess I'm a classic
oh JBV, better to be a classic than the alternative.
I ran in 97% humidity.... and that how my day began...
to add insult to injury, they moved them to another part of the paper, only every day it's in a different section, so it's like a daily scavenger hunt
An aged fine Whine. An antique!
people love the comics cant believe they cut that!
LOL, Judi :) - i'm coming up on a big birthday, but I guess red is right, it's better than the alternative
lol jbv..half of my favorite shows now rerun on history tv channel;/
Really. There's enough bad news. The comics balance that out - or at least should.
and they left all the weird unfunny ones that I just don't get - Over the Hedge, yuck - Pearl s before Swine, ditto,
us too, crossy, we've been watching Bonanza reruns and Gene Autry!
Did they at least save "Peanuts"?
I am not a fan of Bonanza.
no, Judi, Peanuts is in the "classics" category. Not only that they reduced the size so you need a microscope to read them
Obviously, your paper has been taken over by commies!
remember when they first started with colout t.v,s jbv? took me five years to realize that lorne greens skin was not really green;))
colour even
Cross, we never had a color tv until I was about 23 yrs old. My Dad said he finally got tired of trying to figure out if the home team was really the home team in shades of gray...
By that time, I guess they had perfected the coloration!
I'm tapping out at 77. See you kids tomorroww!
our first colour model was a gigantic floor console unit beautif piece of furniture
I lived without a TV for about 6 years in the 70s, finally gave in when everybody was talking about Roots, and I had not seen it
good morning everyone :)
JBV, I remember when people were all talking about Roots. My parents wouldnt let me watch it...
can anyone help with the o in the lower left? I have the number (plural)
I was without TV through High school and college, and then for a year had pbs only, but now I admit to being a TV lover.
on5, the beginning of something.
I enjoyed a Pete Seeger concert last night - PBS, of course
ty
yw.
Complain about the comics - they often cut them as a test of their popularity, and sometimes they return at least a few of the ones you loved. And - I hate to add this - most of them are available on line, which leads to the death of newspapers, of course.
altes
Sorry - don't know what came over the cursor!
what is the 8?
hi all. can i have the lonely "i" in the corner clue?
same with most books and print theese days helen.i spent month trying to find the last 3 books in a certain series i have.i finally had to give up and download it in e-book format
il 4/4 babblet: i + meadow
I suspect I'll eventually get used to reading books online - almost worse than watching movies on the computer.
thank you!
lol i just bought a e-book reader.makes it much more fun helen
n from the bottom? --- have the facial feature(s)
cross, did you get the Kindle?
nm -- found it
haven't tried that crossy, but there's a good article in the New Yorker (Aug. 3) about reading with the Kindle -
nope,kindle is only usefull un the states i bout a sony 700 touch screen reader
still wondering what the 8 is!
It doesnt give you a headache? just curious.
nope,just like paper red
talks about the technical features/limitations, etc, but also the reading experience itself - not being able to touch the lower right corner in advance of turning th epage, etc.
I seem to be invisible right now, so will come back later :)
I like books, the feel of them etc... if they have notes from former readers, etc
lol jbv,with the sony you CAN literray turn the page by swiping your finger across it
cyber there is an am 8 a plural of the am 7, but I dont have the other.
best money i ever spent
i'm with you red, something satisfying about feeling the weight of the left hand side increase as you go through (reading War and Peace right now, so the feel is definitely a component of the experience)
But I can see for someone who travels a lot etc, the appeal of the electronic book reader...
i can carry 50 books in one hand now;) but real books still have a place in my heart
yes and at the beach or on a windy day, the pages will not blow away
there is something abotu cover art, the type chosen and the actual paper chosen. this is not noted much in paperbacks but in certain books its still a big deal.
and for those hard of seeing there are 8 magnifications levels,no more hunting for your favorite titles in large print
can you put notes in there cross?
hence the reason i bought it for my wife her vision is 20/200 on a good day or 20/400 on a bad
44 left and I am getting very very stuck.
yes you can put note,take excerpts,annonate etc
thats a useful tool. and helpful for those visually impaired...
very
store pictures
files etc
40 left here, slow going
now at 42, but still slow...like the turtle that I am.
are there more than two at's?
24 here, same thing... grinding to a halt
i have 3. Pt of eat, and then two that are a pair.
i have three jbv
hello Dorens!
two 4's and a 5
hi dorens, saw your name in the grid yesterday
hi red
ok, thanks, have them all now
yes, me too! i always find it exciting... don't know why, they are common letters and it has happened several times
had mine in there once as well;)
its a special shout out from Dr God. My name oddly is never in there!
full name, crossy?
yup both in the list;)
cool.. now that is unusual
yours would be a tad harder red;0
Yes, when I chose the name, well, I didnt know.
red, are you a redhead, or just a red turtle freak?
I am not a red head. I picked the name from I think a plant my Mom had. or something like that.
I had a lot of red in my hair, but I am not a red head...
collect red turtle heads then?
oh, cause i am a redhead, and everytime i see your name i wonder
No, I cant recall why I chose it exactly.
My Grandfather was a big redhead, but, for me , it was sort of a mahogany colour.
mine is easy i used to be a sharpshooter in competitions
i am down to 20 now... going outside to work in the garden a bit... bbl
Ok, now 38 left.
One thing was that I signed up with a provisional account and thought I would be able to change my name when I got the paid account, but turns out I couldnt!!!
35 left, taking a break - good luck everyone - see you later
i want 35 left!!!! hagd jbv and dorens'
Dr_God will help you change your name
by now though, BR, theres no point, it would confuse me!
dont change now red as we all know you by your handle now
BR could I have a few clues for the Y words? I have the money and the one that rhymes with employment.
oh snow monster.
ye 5 -- more than one affirmative
TY, only one left now.
ye 4/6 -- still, with emphasis
I mean one y.
Thanks BR, gives loads of hugs for finishing Y's.
moving rihgt along to address the S and M and well all the other tiles.
i have the money,the affimative i n plural,bigfoot, and employment,,what 2 am i missing in the y,s?
you are missing the clue at 1138.
i have the more than 1 affirmative
you need the word from 1138 which is not an affirmative statement.
and pluralize bigfoot, cross
Hi met fan
1 left
Howdy red
in the y,s that is;)
I need help with the B. I have the building things that children play with, but...
BR's clue-still with emphasis,Cross
like the snow monster, but a consonant rather than a vowel.
No B help????
Sorry, red, still looking
its ok, I am also looking.
bo5 not a man yet+ two letters
almost sounds like a vessel that heats water
you might hold a bl4/7 party this summer
bo5, like the recent amateur singer Susan Bo*** but with diff. last vowel
TY ZooZ!!!!'
yw.

nope, not me
34 left, and they are just killing me, and 9 of them are simple 4 letter words!!!
1st am 7/8 = think short for for bullets and add a word that means an area or a building plot.
Oooh both am's are 7/8 combos, and both sort of science type words! DIng the light goes one.
TY Fmitch! and how are you?
yw red - all is hunky dory over here :) Hope you are well too.
am 7/40 - girl's name + when you don't win.
I am indeed well. resting and refueling after gym. wrestling with the grid 28 left!
hows the dog of the household doing, all settled in now?
He is doing much better now, especially after I started to use Comfortis as recommended by Ruru to control the fleas. No more fleas!
yay!! that must be a big relief all round!
Its good to be done with fleas. Fm, are you havng the cold weather that the others in your area are complaining of?
I was looking at yr profie for that ovel pic of him sitting at the screen in your old place but its not there any more :(
I still have it, but had to get a new computer so must merge...
Well we have gone from having 30+ to more like 20 degrees so yes it has cooled down a tad ut is still clement.
20 sounds nice... 30 is hot, we have a high of 33 today here...but I am essentially in the tropics.
here is the dog currently for your viewing pleasure... http://tiny.cc/LdlRi
although it had rained so much recently. It wsa great when it was 30 here but to know it wasn't going to last was the thing - as we are not set up to cope with those sorts of temps.
here we have had start and stop rain, but its beginning to be hot time in hurricane season, so maybe...we will get more.
awe there is the sweet boy!!
he's turning into a nice dog, started out as a rascal!
What else is new with you FM, have not seen you in a bit.
I know, life does take over from time to time doesn't it. Put my place on the market a little while ago and it looks like I might have sold it but am not getting excited yet.
Oooh FM, I wish you the best of luck, having been just through that, yugh. Even though my house sold last night I dreamed it burned before the sale completed...
lol -
Until contracts are signed ans ealed I wond get excited but so far so good.
I found the needle case, Needle case alert to those who are lurking and babbling!
don't forget the needle case pl
It's a good grid if yo pay attention and have been babbling for more than a year I think :)
thanks .. i'm a-lurkin' at the lake, sun's too high (and it's too hot) to fish
I don 't kn ow about paying attention, but having a good memory helps

I am mentally & physically exhausted--today was 7th work day in a row, it is my 3rd on call in 6 days, I cleaned my deck yesterday and sealed most of it this afternoon.
yikes, Scrabs, you need to take a nap or go to bed early
I need to plop and rehydrate which is what I am doing now.

Sister Catherine was asking all the Catholic school children in fourth grade what they want to be when they grow up. Little Sheila said, "When I grow up, I want to be a prostitute!" Sister Catherine's eyes grow wide and she barked, "What did you say?!" "A prostitute!" Sheila exclaimed.
Sister Catherine breathed a sight of relief and said "Whew! Thank God! I thought you said 'A Protestant'!"
lol
how can you tell when a politician is lying?
his lips are moving
One day a hooker went to file her taxes, and for occupation she put prostitution. The tax collector explained that prostitution was an illegal occupation. She said she'd have to go home and think about it and that she'd call him back in a hour with her occupation.
An hour later she called him and said, "I've got it... I'm a chicken farmer." He said, "How do you get chicken farmer out of prostitution."
is this a fowl joke?
She said, "I raised over a thousand cocks last year."
Two nuns went into the party store and asked the proprietor for a bottle of rum. The store keeper exclaimed "Why sisters I'm shocked!" They said don't worry, Mother Superior needs a laxative." So he sold them the rum and the nuns left the store. A while later the store keeper went out in the parking lot and found the two nuns sitting in their car, rum bottle empty and them drunk as hell. The proprietor said, "Why sisters I'm shocked, I thought you said the Mother Superior needed a laxative!" They replied, "We did, she's just going to shit when she sees us!"

Two nuns were driving down the road in Transylvania when a vampire jumps on the hood of the car and snarls at them thru the windshield. The nuns are terrified. Sister Catherine says to Sister Mary, "What should I do!!??. Sister Mary says, "I know, I filled the windshield washers with holy water before we left the convent, try squirting him with that". Well Sister Catherine tries that to no avail. The vampire keeps snarling at them and they don't know what to do. Sister Mary says, "Show him your cross, Sister Catherine. " Sister Catherine says, "Good Idea!" She rolls down the window and yells "Get the F**k off the car!"

Little nun, about 96 comes in to a sex shop. shaking violently. She asks the shop assistant..' do you have a vibrator which is purple in colour, with 5 different speeds? Why yes, says the shop girl. Oh Thank God, says the shaky nun. How the heck do you switch it off?

true story from home, local hard man is holed up at home police have come to arrest him for a dserious assault on a local man, the guy is threatening to harm himself with a knife if anybody comes close, so the police call for his priest to come (father eddie btw) and the priest comes and is speaking to the guy on his doorstep, suddenly this hard man punched the priest in the face, before the police can get anywhere near the priest has dragged him out of the house and kicks him all round the garden, the police stood back figuring anybody who would hit a priest deserves every punch and kick

A middle-aged couple had two beautiful daughters but always talked about having a son. They decided to try one last time for the son they always wanted.The wife got pregnant and delivered a healthy baby boy. The joyful father rushed to the nursery to see his new son. He was horrified at the ugliest child he had ever seen. He told his wife: ʽThereʼs no way I can be the father of this baby. Look at the two beautiful daughters I fathered! Have you been fooling around behind my back?ʼ The wife smiled sweetly and replied: ʽNot this time!ʼ

The Pregnant Blonde The other day my neighbor, who is blonde, came running up to me in the driveway jumping for joy! I didn't know why she was jumping so excitedly but I thought, 'what the heck', and I started jumping up and down along with her. She said, 'I have some really great news!' I said, 'Great. Tell me why you're so happy.' She stopped jumping and breathing heavily from all the jumping up and down, told me that she was pregnant. I knew she'd been trying for a while so I told her, 'That's great I couldn't be happier for you!' Then she said, 'There's more' I asked, What do you mean there's more. She said, 'Well, we are not having just one baby.. We are going to have TWINS! ' Amazed at how she could know so soon after getting pregnant, I asked her how she knew. She said.... ; 'Well, that was the easy part. I went to Sam's Club and they actually had a home pregnancy kit in a TWIN-pack. Both tests came out positive !!!!

What did one telephone pole say to the other telephone pole?
"Wire you here?"
There was a rumour going around town that the nuns were fooling around with some of the men. Mother Superior calls all the nuns into the courtyard and points to a bathtub full of holy water. She says 'each one of you must clean yourself with the holy water wherever you have been touched by a man. One nun goes up to the bath, dips her finger in and rubs the holy water on her lips. The next nun goes up to the bath, dips her hand in the holy water and rubs it around her face. The next nun opens her habit, and washes her breast in the water. The next nun gets completely naked, and slips her whole body into the bath.... A shocked looking nun standing next to Mother Superior says....
"She better not pee in that bath, I have to gargle with that water!"

One day in school, the teacher decides to play 20 questions. So the teacher says "OK kids, I am thinking of something round, and red" Little Johnny pipes up "I know, it's a tomato". "No but you're thinking, it's an apple" replies the teacher. So Little Johnny stands up, places his hand in his pocket and says "I am holding onto something that is round, hard, and has a head on it" "That's disgusting!... Go to the principals office" says the teacher. "No, it's a quarter" say Johnny, "but you're thinking"

at this point the teacher cuts in to explain to the children that a focker was a type of aircraft the germans used
at this point the old man thanks the teacher very much but explains that these fockers were messerschmits

I am exhausted, kids, but wanted to check in for a bit and relax before bed.
did you find hams
i am more of a cobbler person myself
I've repaired shoes ..
I just had some of the most delicious Rum Raisin ice cream!!!!
I like apple and peach cobbler
*plumps up a pillow for scrabs*
lol torg
Torgone, I have a pair to send you for repairs
evenin babblers!
hi eva
Hi Eva
hi
hi kier
Wa Hoo! I found the rest of the L's I needed!
killing some time before bed -- how is everyone this weekend?
or possibly kier light
time gets mad when you try to kill it
go car go
what is the i word
Delirious. My on call ends at 9:30 am, after 7 straight days of work!
Ugh! Scrabs...hang in there!
whoo scrabs!
Plural for part of smal bowel = il4
Kayaking tomorrow! Woot, woot!
Fun!
How many EY words? I have 2
sounds fun scrabs
Hi scrabs -- here's my bunny for you
Dr Scrabbler, i coulda used your expertise last week. I had some medical fun...heh
hello all
hi jill
Adorable, Jill!
hi to those who've come on since by disappearance
Eva, what happened? It's dangerous to be a patient.
My poison ivy rash is improving but some areas are still very itchy.
car, only 2 ey words
awoke with a terrible pain wednesday night. went away, but ended up spending my friday evening in the ER. had fun with a kidney stone.
Hello jillibus! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
ouch
owie, eva!
Oh, no! nrkiii had one about 6 wks ago. Kidney stones are painful, as you discovered.
Ty Dawg! I am missing 1 E word...trying to figure it out though!
worst pain i have ever felt. wouldnt wish it on my worst enemy.
where is there a list?
Oh Eva!
watch your sodium intake, eva unless they are calcite stones...then watch your calcium intake
Does anyone like this grid? *taking poll*
called my mom while on serious painkillers to let her know not to expect any grandchildren from me in the near future.
jmcnrick,there's a list at the end of my profile tonite
Yeah...I'm with you JMC...I hate asking for so many clues!
ty min
1 ee, 2 el, 1 eo, 1 es, 4 et, 2 ey
No Scrabs...not one of my favorites!
scrab, my aunt was a repeated poison ivy victim -- never went near the stuff but her dog ("Jillibee") kept bringing it to her
i do, now that i'm done with it, scrabs
Aw, poor Eva. I experienced gall stones in 1990--excruciating, as was the post-op period (no laparaoscopy then)
Ty Min!
the dog was a smooth Fox Terrier, very fat.
while I am thinking about it since you have had such bag poison ivy you should avoid pink pepper corns
yw
Clue for the ET 7 please?
I am covered with this rash, except my face. First episode ever.
I am not at 1/2 car but really had to list
hi min
Oh Scrabs! Sorry to hear that!
et + ** the sound of the tone...+ sch***
my sister and I were never allergic to poison ivy until she stupidly pulled it out bare handed
I only have 17 left...but again, it pains me to ask so many questions!
hello all, not playing yet, just wanted to see who is here and get some hugs
on a side note, if anyone needs any oxycodone, ive got some extra! (kidding) ;)
Good grief! TY Dawg!
hi stid {{{{stiddie}}}} why you need hugs?
STIDDY!!
((((stid))))
{{{HUGS!!!}}}
My fault, car. On 7/17 we went kayaking, made a camp fire, got naked for skinny dipping (note exposure of entire body surface in this chronology) and then collected more fire wood. 3 days later--bad outcome began
spent ALL day driving it seems -- the penpal wanted to see what sort of cameras are available in the States, but didn't like the prices he found, so we came home almost empty-handed!
that's better. thanks all!
Hello stidmama! How are you? Welcome to the puzzle!
Almost -- I got a pink tablet computer for school this coming year...
Ah yes! The hazards of skinny dipping...and collecting firewood!
nice stid
(Stid)--what a nice foster mother
oooh, what fun new school supply!
(((((stid)))))
where does the penpal come from, stid?
*thinking scrabs must get that kind of intelligence from her father's side of the family...*
but scrabs I am serious about the pink pepper corns
Tbilisi, Jill -- and stidkid #1 returns tomorrow night. Since he is the actual penpal of the penpal, that will make things a little more fun!
Stid, I was looking up Bainbridge Island recently--Center for Courage and Renewal
lbd I don't get the sch part of the clue
I will check that out, je
why there, scrabs?
are you going to come visit? *hopeful look*
bet you'll be glad when tomorrow comes, stid!
Japanese laquer can also be a problem but nothing as bad as the pink peppercorns
JMC...a pr*** can make rainbows
*looking up Tbilisi*
ty car
ahh, thanks car, couldn't think of another *** word
happier when August 15 comes and the meeting is over and the paper that I am putting off to be here is done and...
I kept trying to find school!
school is thataway, jmc *points to Evergreen*
lol, jmc
lol stid
*waves at Les Perse*
anyway, will set this itty-bitty machine aside and work on the paper now. I wrote nearly one page yesterday from memory, but now have to start supporting my assertions with actual research. LOL
http://www.couragerenewal.org/parker A book I am reading on "callings" mentioned Parker Palmer's book and I bought that and learned about his center
see you-all soon! *mini-poof*
I applied once to Rogue River CC to work, what a lovely campus they have
you can write a paper without a computer *looks impressed*
(I see, will look that up, cousin)-- more hugs for everyone!!! *big hugs and zips off*
So, yes, Stid, I thought, if I ever go to a retreat Bainbridge Island is very near to you. Have you heard of the center?
I think I'd better start working on the 57 I have left.
*scratches head, write paper w/o computer?* hmmm, what an amazin task!
finally down to 87 left!
go Jilli, go Jmc!
8 left! List is really helping! TY again Min!
go car go!

Yes. Very sad. She loved seeing my boys so much at church.

Dawg...I have that one, so I must need the one before that.
I am sitting here, waiting for Primo and the red headed boy to return from the incubus concert, and then I have to go collect them from Kadresa's, at maybe 12:30 or so. PUKE

and lbd and min
tell him I said hello also. Will try to get the kids to agree on what his future holds -- I have to bring Primo and the other boy back to the ferry at SIX am, so we should try to get a quorum
Funny, true story: ultra-Christian mother has her 2 girls in the office for check-ups and are on the way out. The girls set down there portable video game systems while they pick stickers and toys. They say, "Don't forget your Playboys" <---what my brain created when thinking of Play Station and Game Boy. Mother was shocked.
Congrats Car!!
lol, scrabs...a little freudian slip?
*their*--sorry, I am delirious
lol scrabs
My staff was laughing, as I am quite the little nun myself, but mother looked stunned
Nice Scrabs!
I was so embarrassed!
did you make amends to the mother?
Trif...I am pretty certain he will be either here or there....
did you offer the mother play girls to show how even handed you are?
what a riot scrabbler! btw, did you see Haz's list??? I was cracking up!
I apologized and explained the mix-up of terms
Hazel has a list of what and where?
that sounds so much like something i would have done, scrabs!
I meant that I said "playboys" not them. Geez, I cannot even tell the story right, I am so tired
those little malapropisms...just slip out sometimes
it's hilarious - A list of the shortest books ever written, by us babblers - "Ban Bacon!" by Crosshair, "On Humility" by Ata, etc. It was really, really funny.
How creative! is it on BabAnon?
Yours was something about your fiance, George Clooney, but I suggested "Great Doctors I Have Worked With" by Scrabbler....
trif, tell haz to post it in babanon
She left my book on How to Throw a Party in a Dry County ;-)
For mine I sueggested "Happy Marriage Tips" by Trifioso
LOL, the esteemed Dr Richard Cranium
Haha, jm. What time are services at the Baptist Church tomorrow morning?
I am hanging with the New England Quakes this week until Weds.
we all got silly giving in suggestions: The Complete Book of Cat Care, by Dan2, How to swear in 8 languages by EliotL, etc.
it's after services that the parties roll!
OK, time to quit: 75 left and NBT
well done, scrabs. do you have tomorrow off?
Bye everyone! See you tomorrow~
sweet sleeps, scrabs
bye scrabs
Yes, finally, dawger, and I will go kayaking with my friend to a small, isolated lake.
wow, scrabbler, that is exaclty where I am too! have a good night dear one
watch out for poison ivy and oak, scrabs!
Niters scrabs ..

Just saw the Haz book list -- hilarious indeed!

where is it jilli? did she put it in bab anon?
snap, lbd
on her profile
Must go and have something to eat...back asap
Trif, it's in her profile. I have her in My Friends but if you haven't you could probably find he in the Rankings

yes, jmc, change ending to spanish aunt
ty lbd
one of those words you would know: damages awarded to a plaintiff as compensation for personal suffering or grief arising from an injury.
not my kind of law but I will file that away for future reference
Not even a little obscure or archaic ...
I honestly never heard the word -- on the other hand I took tort law in 1977
Mmmm .. torte ..
ah latin --- I went to law school when they were priding themselves on not using latin phrases
did I tellyou about my friend the lawyer who wanted to open a combination law firm and pastry store?
He was going to name it the Tort(e)s and Tarts
torts r us?
excellent jmc!!!
Why no, jmc .. What would he call it??
This is actually a true story! lol
Sorry .. A little slow for a straight man ..
he would specialize in personal injury and representing hookers
pick up the timing there torg! lol
I should have waited til you set me up torg
Heh .. funny lawyers ..
we have a town near us named Hull (like in England). I had a friend who wanted to open an ice cream store there and call it "Hull freezes over" but the town wouldn't go for it. I was so disappointed.
that would have been so cute!
My sister wanted to open a 24 hour chinese place and name it Wok around the clock

OK Sweetie!
Goodbye car.eeyore! I'll see you tomorrow in the log!
G'night Min!
Hello. It looks like I'm coming just as everyone else left!
Hello Nef! How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle!
Hi Nef. I still have 15 to find but if hubby finds a good movie on PPV, I might have to leave too
I'm doing okay, Min. How about you?
oh, gosh. Headache just turned into migraine...
autumn, are you the bride in those pics on your profileflicker photos?
nope.. the giver of the gift. The bride is my hubby's cousin's daughter. The gift was collective from the family
Madi go lay down! That sounds miserable!
and, nope, not the other bride either
I am well Nef. I have a list in my profile if you need it.
I didn't see tall of the different parts yet, but it's quite a gift!
I don't know what's wrong with me. These have been fairly consistant over the past 6 weeks!
Thanks, Min; I'm going to use it. I'm down to 55 (I was plogging along last night and this AM, haven't been here since about 9-10 hours ago.
Have you had it checked out yet Madi? That's a LONG time for headaches
I FEEL like I've been here for about 9 or 10 hours Nef
No, but I know I should tell my mom. It's getting bad.
hi all...here to try and finish
PS: No little one, yet :(
hi and bye pini :) Pain meds and bed are fast approaching. Good luck!
night madi ;)
hi pini!!!
hi trif ;)
*poof* *collides with keyboard and snores*
how's everyone doing?
Hi Pini!
Hello Pinikula!How are you doing?Welcome to the grid
hi autumn, min...
hi Pini. I'm down to 55 and just back after a phone call.
hi nef :)
92 more to find here...thinking about listing...
I am falling asleep, which is not good, as I have to pick up my boy in an hour....
Where is your boy, Trifi?
not sure I know how to keep you awake, trif, OTHER THAN BY YELLING, "GIT'R DUN!"
WAKE UP TRIFS!!!
at an incubus concert. blah
hi tor
OKAY TORS
Pinikula, I have list at the bottom of my profile today
thx min :)
no lickety today I take it?
Geez, Pini and Tor! Least you could do is warn those of us who are awake that we need to cover our ears!
oh, sorry, Nef...my bad :(
My list,of course,isn't as good as lickety's but better than nothing. Actually I got list from Babanon earlier.
if you have expert, does it matter if lickety lists or not?
Sorry for shouting ..
hey, min...appreciate it! a list is a list!
just tried, trif...it does make a difference...
phantom: fetish
it doesn't really matter, just hide the lickety add box and enter the words inthe the add word box instead.
I am off to watch a movie called the Watchmen. See y'all another day! *waves buh-bye*
night AM! take care
Goodbye autumn moon!I will see you tomorrow maybe
arrgh. primo just called. they are still in the parking lot of the concert, and the traffic is slammed to a halt. I won't be picking him up for another hour and a half, at the earliest....
yikes...power nap time?
I need to ask better questions next time. When he said "it's all arranged" what he meant was "I bought a ticket"
oops
did he go with friends?
do they have rides?
can't they drive him home?
<-- will be quiet now
how far do you have to go to pick him up?
he is supposed to be on Nantucket, camping with the Scouts for a week. He and another scout bought tix to the concert anyway, and then talked the scoutmaster into letting them off island for one night. the other scouts dad got them off the ferry today, and drove them to my sister's house (they are at the concert with my niece and nephew)
then I am supposed to meet them at my sister's tonight, and bring them back here to sleep. Then Primo, in his infinite genius, bought a return ticket for the 9:15 ferry tomorrow morning. I have to drive them back to the ferry, which is about 45 minutes from here. Problem is, I am doing the children's sermon at church tomorrow at 9:30. Sigh
oy vey!
what a whirlwind!!!
what a tool wind, more like it. I get that they wanted to go to the concert AND camping, but they really should have realized how many people they are inconveniencing here.
I'm sure they'll hear about it soom!!!
er *soon
brb
i knew what you meant, darling pini!
I can think about how to advise you on this; but truth be told; I've done similar when my kids were young too.
I am NEVER doing this again, nef. it's just ridiculous. but seriously, this isn't gonna come up again. The idea is that next time I have to learn to ask ALL the necessary questions
hello folks, I just returned from a vacation. Do you think I can get ther grid done in one hour and four minutes?
(I think most Moms become martyrs at some point of parenthood!)
Hi harpjane! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
harp!!! how was the vaca? where did you go?
Hi, Harp! Welcome Back!
i'm WONDERFUL minver, I went to Yellowstone and Grand Teton Parks
I'm in post-vacation laundry triage now!
*Sigh!* Lucky Harp
harpjane, the grid is tough today. I have a list in my profile (at bottom) because Lickety did not do a list.
is it true that grand teton is french for big tits? I think maybe that's a rumor....
think i'll skip it then and yes Trif, it is french for big tit (singular)
and there's no question about why it got that name!
wow, that's true!!!???? geesh. you are very good to be climbing Mt. Washmore - what we call laundry mountain here. Trust me, you will feel so good when it is done!
etuis
sorry. I hope someone can use that one
okay, i am lost. nudge for the et 7 please?
thanks, whoever just sent that psychic clue = got it!
e+ ink ***too +your beliefs
good one nef!
(it really didn't make any sense)
think i'll disappear see you tomorrow!
goodnight harp. and good luck!
good night Harp
48 left. And I'm dying here.
Goodbye harpjane! I will see you tomorrow in the log!
50 here, and just about the same, nef
32 left & I have been dying since 6:30. I'm not listing.
LOL! Min has the clues in her profile ans SHE doesn't list!
I had a long day of helping someone move and when I got back,I did not feel like retyping all my words in a word document or writing the words again on paper.
hi all! I gather no Lickety today?
Hello PAV3! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!
pav, your icon is YUMMY
No Lickety today PAV3, but I have a list in my profile
46 left and I jus fell asleep in my chair,
I had a good today, and thought I'd try to finish...just ate a wonderful spinach and feta cheese pizza...from Target, their house label Archer Farms
oops, pav - you will have to enjoy it in the PB!
I think there is a skunk outside my house. Just got a wiff of it coming through my windows. I guess now is not a good time to take the dog outside for his tinkle
probably not, min, no!
I thought I left that cheese someplace...
sorry. bedtime for meeeee
good night, nef. sleep well, dear one~
hey all...waiting for a call from my dau (she's checking with her doctor now)...she thinks her water broke!!!!!!
oh hey, pini!!!! praying....
Goodbye Nef! I will see you tomorrow in the chat log!
hello all! wandering in again to see how many I can find.

oh well -- I wasn't going to get much anyway!
well, I hope all goes well, pini.
thought about you today on a quick trip to Powell's.
I am going to sneak a nap in....nytol!

I'll knock your bl** off!
sweet dreams trifioso!
Goodbye Trifioso! I will see you tomorrow in the chat
down to 99 words...
stuck at 51...and not fe4 ing smart enough to finish...
