Don't come in the summer -- Tel Aviv has been in the high 90's with a humidity of close to 80% for the past month. Hot and muggy.
May and October are great months here
ty!
I hate humidity
down to 11!! ditto that ru...kills my rheumatoid
Jerusalem is drier, as is the Gallilee, not to mention the desert in the south. But along the coast, it is hot and muggy.
oh...
breakout on the to's?
That is the summer weather I described. Winter weather is different -- Jerusalem is higher and colder, often gets some snow, whereas on the coast it is milder and less rain.

any help with TE8
phantom-cotton
sorry ollics..not got that one yet.

I just found a du8, a very small italian song for 2... but it is not valid!
hi all
Hello Boo
hi Boo
Hello, Boobear
te + a model may spend the day p****g for an artist; coffee, **a, or milk
thanks BabbleRabble, brilliant clue for a new word for me
wow, excellent clue.thanks
wow BR, you are the cluer
A tall grass is the description.
yeah, just looked it up as well, thought it might be related to ab****h. But not even remotely, lol.
why do people turn up when i try and play babble..bbl
so very inconsiderate!
is the an7 still against somethng? and what would that be?
don't know yet, sue
*tiptoes quietly into chog*
hi TOwl :)
hi Temple
found an8 though, thanks to you, sue :)
an 7 is more of the conduct described by reference to a picnic pest
thanks BabbleRabble
Good morning all. The an7 clues are really confusing me so I may have to come back to it but could someone pease give me a clue for du8, thanks?
going down or sideways BR?
i'm with you marc, not getting the an clue at all.
red, marc> describing someone who can't sit still - superlative
an7 is less able to sit still, rather nervous. The only du8 I found so far was not valid, MarkF.
du8 - not in this grid. Hello all
comparative, actually. Hi lyn!
Mark there is no du 8
can some clue the an 8 and an 7 please
TY temple owl and thanks also lynnnxx so I will stop looking for it.
Then what is the other 8?
what a lovely label Sprite
you are right sprite i am wrong
thanks lyn :)
te8.40
an8 and te8
Is the first part of an7 a an4 for against?
Got the te 8
an and te
no MarcF
sprite what is this i heard on the news about smart tossing in amsterdam?
an + singer alanis morr*s*****
darn yes, TOwl, stupid drunken guys who think it is funny to toss a Smart car into a canal.
Thanks BR that is the an8 great clear clue but what is the an7
:D
clued at 7.32 by BR and 7.35 by TOwl and myself, Marc
I was in Amsterdam a month ago.
you should have left those Smarts at peace, Marc, now they all think it were Hollanders who did it!
not getting these clues, know the singer, that gives one only 7 not sure why marc gets 8
the an8 is a drink, rather oldfashioned I think. BabbleRabble's clue fits the 8 exactly. The an7 is more of a picnic pest, with a letter inserted.
leave the s in TOwl
got the pests
TO double the constanant at the end for the 8 but I cannot get the 7 from that clue
OH! it is the italian liquorice flacored cordial!
well why didn't you say so? LOL
exactly
I think so
i KNOW so
lol well excuuuuuuse me!
thats it.
hi red :)
LD
I though that the an7 did not start with a 4 letter word meaning against? I feel like I am playing who is on first?
hi Red
Good morning Babblers :)
:D even
an7 starts with garden pests and means "more fidgety"
an7 starts with the 6-legged, hardworking picnicpest...
an7 starts with plural picnic pests
hi Nanette!
TO I just glanced down to the floor by my desk and found that drink! I have a bottle of it sitting there that was given to me ages ago
and hi Une too
hi hi no no
howdy, sprite :-)
hi Une & Nono
cute bunnies, red and Nanette!
no no , having a bit of the nip whilst babbling?
awww and Une's as well
no way TO at least not that stuff
I do not care for it or licorice
thats why it has been sitting there forever lol
tastes like cough syrup, if you ask me. You didn't, I know.
when is scrabs' new job beginning?
september
September but not sure of date
just short of 9 weeks from now i think
ok now is an7 based on the flavoring also?
did the chog die?
hey, lynxxx :-)
no - more an** in pants
I think Scrabs last working day is about the 28t hof September. Hi all.
TO, an7 is more fidgety
ok ty i have that!
hi FM
hey, fmitch :-)
hey fm!
back, chog froze on me. Hi FM :)

Congrats Spritey, have a good day
sprite, i have not been aroundin the daytime anymore, hope you are well
OK the wife came in to nag at me and tell me all the things I had to do for her today so I missed the clue for an7. All the clues so far have left me scratching my head. I got the an8. Thanks
back in a while my rather late lunch is ready.
later, fm
Good day/morning to all.
hi Scrabs
Hello Scrabbler
hi scrabs! hey is une here?
an7 is plural of clever insect plus 3 letter ending which means even more so
pops back in again to say Hi Scrabs and show my icon and text for you ((()))
I FINALLY slept well last night after many nights of poor and insufficient sleep.
watching sunday morning shoe, it is showing, giving lore of poisonous plants fascinating
FM, that looks like my bunny Tucker John! Black with tan in ears, on snout, around eyes, and on belly.
de7?
showing also that doctors used many of those plants in old times as mediines
LOL, Owl, you mention that as I furiously scratch at my poison ivy rash that has plagued me for the last 2 wks.
well there you go! sorry to Hi and bye you Scrabs but was just on the way out to the kitchen for lunch.
oooh popping in to show scrabb my yesterdays icon toooo,
oh they mentioned poison sumac, lmost blinded architect olmstead
just think, if so, no central park in nyc!
Well halliluyah, I finally got an7 thanks Kazzer
So, so cute, Red! TY
Olmsted created most of Buffalo's park system here
i got a bunny as well - this one was soo cute
Yes, super cute, Kazzer!
Hi, can I hav a clue for the de7?
had Peter Rabbit and his family for you, scrabs, but deleted this morning -- sorry!
de7 de*l*** your intentions - sub the l for a vowel
adorable kazz! all the bunnies are too cute today!
Nope, it is still there for me, Une. My downstairs bedroom is bunny-themed-posters of Beatrix Potter's books/stories, including an informative poster of Miss Potter herself. That room is for my bunny, Miss B(eatrix Potter).
how many bunnies do yo uhave scrabs?
ty
d's done
And above my living room foreplace I have 3 large framed pics of bunnies--one is Tale of Benjamin Bunny, and 2 others
4, Owl, each in their own bedroom...
lol do they actually stay in their rooms?
The boys upstairs have gates at their doorways, I have a gate at the bottom of the stairs and Miss B runs all over down here.
and do all get along?
lynxx for some reason I did not get your clue for de7 could you or someone reclue it for me?
They do not interact--bunnies are fiercely territorial but, with time and effort, they can become "bonded". I have nevre done that due to size/age
ty. that is interesting.
Morning all!
My sister became a foster mother for 2 bonded brothers last December and she soon adopted them--Thunder & Lightning--black and one with a white stripe on forehead
Hi SG, our newest Babble addict!
hi, geek!
Scrabs, my daughter's bedroom (she's now 32!!) has a Beatrix Potter wallpapered wall that I've never been able to paper/paint over! :-)
I cannot work on this today. Stukc with 80 left and have been up since 4 trying to get ready for a show.......aahhhhh
it's actually a guest room now :-)
good riddance C's
good for you, dan!!
yay dan! clue the final co7 pls? ty
more canvas bed-like?
more like a camp bed, TO
Thanks figured out all the d's. Got to go now for awhile.
(double consonant)
typed that several times, une..will try again
I was over on FB. Une--how wonderful!
:-D
scrabs, I love the photos of Beatrix Potter holding her (very large) bunny and the one where she's walking a bunny on a leash! :-)
I tried some of my bunnies with leashes years ago and they were not happy.
i can only imagine! LOL
pokey pup is finally ready to go out and pee -- BRB
And, as my bunnies are "free-range", I have no need to take them outside for walks. They get tons of exercise.
hi Scrabbler
and hi to you Une
back . . . hey, boo :-)
Hey boo. Ok all, poof
Hi Boobear
hm 13 left - do i stayor do i go?
stay and go (to finish)
Stay and finish! Go Owl go!

oh fun!
te + a model may spend hours p****g for an artist; and coffee, **a or milk
on the brightside i don'thave a stage to manage today. on the dark side i have a schedule to move around to various sites that is firm
hey nut, i thought about you the other day. took an audio book of a stephanie plum book for the long ride to and from boston -- a great way to make a long drive shorter
thanks BR, what a strange word
i think i would rather deal with leaky tents and flooding drssing rooms than run around in this stuff
wow bab, how do you find words like that?
fireworks for me
owl, too bad you couldn't have another day like yesterday. it was gorgeous up here - couldn't believe it this morning when i heard the rain
congrats, Kazzer

a little mood music, some strawberries...

hey, hursh!
Hi hurshy
hey :)
How was your birthday, hursh?
oh, it was alright
hi hursh. happy birthday?
sorry I missed your big day, hursh!
it was monday.
no probs une :)
so, what do we have in the way of 8's today?
te and an
te8 which is new to me
te8/40 and an8/40
I don't have the an8--missed clues
an8 is an olde liqueur :-)
liqueur
I have it now. TY, Une
happy birthday, hurshy
When is your birthday, BR?
yw :-)
in july
well happy past birthday then, babrab
Happy Birthday, BR! We missed it!
y ty
I passed halfway. Time for a break, newspaper, and breakfast. Good luck to all.
te and an, ok - scuse me, i went off and read a msg from atalante
i would be happy for clues, as i don't drink, so am unlikely to get any liqueur (although, is it licorice based?)
break, newspaper and breakfast sounds very sensible to me.. i'll join you scrabbs. (i'm having fcanteloupe and a zucchini frittata)
yes hursh
with frenchy ending
the an 8/40 is locorice based add double cons and vowel to an 5/10
woohoo! got it!
is it tes or teo?
latter
thanks! got it!
clue for so 6 pls
Wow. My mom was right,.. "aint" was not found in the dictionary
my compy has this thing where for the first word i start typing in the add word box after having typed in the chog, i start typing and it shows me things i have typed before (whether they were right or wrong) - so i just looked down the teo list and there it was!
in love - beso6
so 6 -- inebriated
must be using firefox
yep
any R6's or 7's?
no
two qu 6 and a 7
i have all the Q's
which are there 3 of, de or du?
de
what's the one that isn't part of the combo?
de7/36
looks like a word meaning "to state" -- change 3rd consonant to a vowel -- bizarro word
thanks une!
yw :-)
any A7 or F7?
an 7
an7 more fidgety
ahhh, thanks! should've gotten that one.
well, that just leaves FCRR
no
FCRFCT
my keyboard got away from me.
resistentialist keyboard
lol
:-D
are there any ce words?
no
3 ci, or more?
5
blech. ok, thanks.
i always miss italian goodbye!!!
same here
any fi words?
2
fi5/6
thankssssss!!!!!!
point total?
1779
so that means a 6/21 and a 5/10, one R, one T! :)
plural fish on the T6!
and plain old fishy fishy fishy fish on the R5!
hursh LOL
what?
wtg, hursh
it helps me to think outloud. or out... outvisible
anyway thanks for the help!! :)
any time
all done, hursh? congrats!
ty
what is the distinction between an ode and a paeon?
oh, that sounds like a question for NPR Sunday morning shows!
i think odes have a particular meter structure
and/or rhyme scheme
i think hursh is right (quelle surprise)
thanks. makes sense
an ode won't bring you coffee when you ask
paeon= In quantitative verse, a foot of one long syllable and three short syllables occurring in any order.
ode= is a lyrical verse. A classic ode is structured in three major parts: the strophe, the antistrophe, and the epode.
en ice
mrning everuone;)
oohh good day with the keyboard i see

good morning
feeling that boozy kind of thing dc
hello again babble buddies
scrabbs!
morning scrabbs
hiya scrabs
:))
not at the moment, ruru, though if i did, there's plenty in the kitchen
((Crossy(( ((Ruru)) ((Seain))
I was kinda talking about me there dc not you..
I am getting ready for a kayaking outing
oh, a 78 for scrabbler due to mismatched parentheses :)
oh that sounds fun...
my bad, ruru *rasises a glass to you*
oh, do enjoy, scrabbler!
Oh, no, look what I did!
wish i was going with you scrabbs,another day of catering to the citiots for me:(
I am going for a long hike today
Rude, bossy, entitled-feeling citiots, Cross?
uh.. crossy aren't they called customers?
nice, ruru
And the customer is always right!
seems so,but to us they always seem to be in overdrive,tearing around causing pile-ups heaving trash out the window..but we are spoiled here i suppose
its a love hate thing ruru,and even though they pay to play they should respect things that are not thiers
the customer is not only right. and when they are wrong, one has not done one's job well if the customer has not thanked one for telling them no.
the desert brings a lot of trailer types that is true
could someone get me started on the 7's?
indeed, so, cross
an 7 (restless)

I always do, Ruru, and I am continuing to apply lots of steroid cream and an4-itch stuff for my delightful case of poison ivy dermatitis
*scratch, scratch*
may that clear up soon, scrabbler
The initial breakouts are improving but the newer areas are making me mad with itching!
Mad, absolutely mad!
scrabs - did you try teatree oil?
oh my goodness, scrabbler... still??? poor thing!
No, but I will look for it. Gold Bond medicated cream works great and I need another tube.
It is just awful, this rash. What a learning experience.

Hi Margie, she's fine... she moved to Arlington last month.. teaching yoga at lots of places and very happy
how are you margie?
Great. How's Barbara. I can't reach her.
Oh. I see
Arlington???
VA
you have her email, right? I will tell her to get in touch with you... she hasn't even been checking messages.. busy with the move (Arlington is next town over to Cambridge, and she has lots of friends there and teaches yoga there, as well as Cambridge)
Is she still with Ken?
yes. they are very happy
Ken and Barbie?
except we haven't called her Barbie in a long time ruru.. (but i still do once in a while.. she's my little sis)
Great. I have a million e-mails for he. Tell her to call me. 561-333-6124. I've called and left messages but she doesn't call back. I missed her birthday on the 19th.
i'll tell her.. but can't promise she will call back.. she isn't all that good at it
I adore her! Does she have the same phone #?
why do you have a million e-mails? I can assure you she doesn't want a million emails.. her mailbox is crammed with stuff she hasn't opened
her cell is the same
My granddaughter is two now. She only weighed one-pound but she is perfect and very chubby.
terrific, being a grandma is wonderful, isn't it?
No. I meant a million different e-mail addresses
Your grandchild is magnificent
i have two now, Levi was born July 3. Phoebe turned 3 on July 5
do you have the bsfznet? that is what i use
That's great. It's so much fun. What that?
her email
What is the complete address
i can't put it down here.. she is very private. I have sent her your phone # .. let's hope she opens the email
Well the first 3 letters are her initial and I know her middle name. is it at znet ... com or net
I'll try and see if it comes back. mine is ml.silverman@live.com. give it to her as well
ok, will do

hello 69 to go
Afternoon, all!

i have a fishing buddy from an online group .. he's staying with friends nearby and stopped over before for a beer. was nice to see him. we've met before, but still fun to see internet friends .. AND he brought me some smoked marlin he caught in mexico!
Ooh. That sounds yummy, Welki. Bet he had fun getting that through customs.
i think that the place that smokes it packages it as well and sends everyone home with proper paperwork ... either that, or people must have thought he had very strange cologne :)
"Sir, what is that smell?"
"It's my cologne." .... "What is the name of this cologne." .... (From Marx Brothers: "It's the name of a fish..."
I was going to say... Eu de chum

Hi dawger
hi Jmc!
hi lb! how goes it?
hi dawg

Hi Pav. it goes well, how about you?
hi Annie!
ti4 level?
cakes have ti**s
wedding cakes are usually ti43e
ti4ed...not ti34...magic fingers...
or layers
ah THAT kind of level I was thinking of even or level the playing field
it's +100 here and we've stayed indoors most of the summer...
ty ty
argh, i would too, Pav. that's not weather for humans! unless you're part iguana
if it is dry enough it isn't so bad
or in the shade with a light breeze *thinking of sitting on the veranda sipping mint julips*
nope, even dry heat at that temp is too hot! sucks the life right outta ya
the heat keeps my family away...which could be good for some...
well you don't go running around -- why do think every one in the south is slow in the summer?
I thought it was because they were just slow...
ggrrrr
I had a shipmate that once said "i'm from mississippi, and we not only talk slow, we walk slow, and we even think slow..." cracked up our NYC instructor!
let's see...where shall we visit today?
shipmate? NYC instructor?
anywhere cool, with that nice breeze JMC was talking about.
I am visiting RI still
I was in the Navy, JMC
did not know that lbd
I picked Antartica...but only for the day...it's much tooo cold any other day...
don't mention it very often
MT is a long way from the ocean
ahh, good choice, Pav
my sister visited antartica once
You'd be surprised how many sailors are from MT and other land locked states.
I have photos of her with penguins
lol no not really lbd
lord if I could only spell I would be good at this game! ;-)
in my neighborhood we have 6 former sailors and one current sailor, dating back from WWII to the current situations. I'm the only female, and the only officer! :)
*salutes lbd*
when I got my ensign bars, I was told to hang on to every word my command chief said, and make him my best friend. Asked if it was okay if I just married him.
so did you?
that would make a good story, dawg
yes. I however, don't hang on to every word he says. I know better than that! lol
lol good story lbd!
I met my husband down at the court house
dawg, What a great story!
I was representing some demonstrators and had no clue what I was doing
so I would go into the lawyer's lounge and ask the guys there what to do
where else would lawyers meet? :)
two of them helped -- one this cute Jewish looking guy and the other a HIspanic guy
and?
after the week at the court house and I had gotten my clients release, the Jewish looking guy and I stoodout in the hall way and he would let the door of the lawyers lounge bang into him as we talked.
...*waiting for which one turned out to be mr. right*
I said-- we could move and he said no no it's okay -- I found out much later that my blouse had fallen open and he had a birds eye view of my right tit
!!! lol
he (the rick in my name here) used to say -- I met her at the court house -- she was a working girl
of course it is only funny because we married --- creepy peeping tom otherwise!
LOL
th e hispanic guy later got caught for selling drugs
that's a hoot, JMC
he represented himself in court and when a friend of ours was gonig to testify against him he shot him to death
there on the turn of a dime. . .
oh dear, what a waste of all that education!
liked them both
my husband actually died on the 12th anniversary of the day we met
funny guy
i'm sorry, jmc. that makes it a double whammy for you. one to cherish yet so painful
now that I have put a damper on the chog I will slip out and find a funny picture of my cat for my icon
very sad. you have 12 good years though
as memories
very good years and no rerets
*mini poof*
no damper, jmc. it's good that you can talk so lovingly about him
anyone want a clue before I take off
so what have you been up to lately, Annie?
Nothing really...staying out of trouble and you?
staying out of the heat! nothing exciting here to report. rather boring on this side of the screen
going to watch Mystery Theatre...bye dear babblers
have a good evening, Annie
you too, dawg
bye annie
back with new icon -- cute cat picture for pet theme
your cat is your logo?
did you refresh?
no, just clicked on your icon
hmm, refreshed, and nothing happened.
that is my cat curled up in my file cabinet that I made the mistake of taking two drawers out of for a moment
isn't it amazing how fast a critter can find the space to crawl into?
made me laugh and run and get my camera though
my minpin loved to crawl into my luggage, backpack or anything he thought he could "hide" in
and the ability to find the one piece of paper I need next to sit on!!!
not that i'd notice an extra 20 pounds of weight or him nested inside
oh yes, must be there to be helpful too!
lol I'd notice and extra 20 pounds! not a delicate little creature eh?
slightly overweight, but he was oversized for a minpin. actually, more like a german pinscher.
my cat is a mutt
I have been listening to your chat. Thanks for the entertainment. Now I am closing shop. Tomorrw the semifinalists of the Cleveland Piano Competition will be announced. You can get it at \www.clevelandpiano.org
i'm kind of partial to mixed breeds. pure breds are nice too, but can be rather finicky
I will look forward to it inge
Hi Inge, night Inge. enjoy the competition
all of my cats found me.
bye inge
i've not gone looking for another dog since i had to put my last one down. Really upset hubz, and I'm not sure he's ready for another. it's only been 8 years. :\

Oh no, on bread, toast or crackers . . .

I add it to porridge, too!

Yes, dawger, we went to one of the western Finger Lakes, called Canadice Lake--about 3 miles long, 1/2 mile wide and surrounded by woods. It was just beautiful! I went swimming and it helped my poison ivy rash feel better.
no nekkid wood collecting?
Oh no - I hear that's pretty nasty, and lasts for a while, Scrabbler? :/
sounds nice scrabs
We have stinging nettles here, but it doesn't sound as if they're as bad as poison ivy!

This is my fear now: I used all of my kayak gear that I touched/used on the day I was exposed to poison ivy. The rhus oil is probably on all of my gear and I am going crazy about a flare-up.
fe 5/16 is a clenched hand with extra vowel gapeach
poor scrab!
Hi all. I've been lurking - wanted to let you know, Scrabbler, that poison ivy oil is safe once it touches water, so your gear should be fine if you hose it down.
wonder what you could clean your gear with to strip that oil off?
I should have cleansed everything--paddles, sack, etc
Isn't there anything you could clean all your gear with, Scrabbler?
does the te 8 involve a greater degree of canvas shacks?
Thanks lbdawger and Min.
TY, Mrs Sand
Oh - you've already used the gear again? Well, if it was going to affect you from that, wouldn't it have, already?
Hi MrsSand! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!
no, gort

Sigh. There was less drama in the Wagner Ring Cycle
GO MIN!!
I just found two more words from that - so I thank you threefold, lbdawger! :)
I am done! I have fireworks! st6/18 was my last word
Well hello, Trifioso! :) How are you?

Oh dear - just read your post, Trif . . .

Yippee Minveryork! Hi Trif--sorry about the adolescent female drama.

Congrats, Minveryork! :)

what gort?
And hello, JMC! :)

she is not in bed. she is wrapped up in her big blanket, walking around like lady macbeth, muttering and sobbing about how hateful it is here, nothing works, she is the most abused child on earth, etc. Lots of extras sighs and moans thrown in for my benefit
just trying to snatch a moment of glory from the magnificent cluing lbd who rocks
hand her a book and tell her it's something new! lol
what have you got for the wi6 pls lbd?
amen to THAT lbd!!!
I am afraid I would be tempted to whack her
hot dog, gort
lol, jmc.
That wi 6/30 word is like a hotdog gortmold.
Poor Secondo. Life is is unfair.
well slap me with a soggy sausage, of course it is, thanks again lbd
life IS unfair -- get over it
brb
we used to score my nieces tantrums. not nice, but they sure got over them fast
Yep, life is not easy and not fair.
LOL, dawger
They are both lovely young ladies now, and we still tease them when they start to go drama on us. My sisters and I will call out scores like at the olympics.
I am seconds away from losing it and screaming PUH LEEZ. your biggest problem in life is that your personal DVD player doesn't work since you plugged it into a tranformer on your trip to Ireland? BLOW ME PRINCESS
HAHAHA . . .
Good evening all...and Trif...calm down...she's doing this to get to you. Ignore her...shut the door.
Yes, really - if that's her biggest problem ever in life, she's got it pretty good compared to the rest of us!
Hey there Kad. I think she is letting out that "everything" is broken
Poor dear .. It's SO HARD being her ..
I was with you until the BLOW ME part trif! lol
Now now, Trif. don't add to her drama. diffuse it with sarcasm...i mean uhm smile and tell her life will be this way for a long long time.
Hi Kad
Hi kadresa! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!
trust me, i would never tell my DD to blow me! It is just what I want to yell in my head.
Call her over to your computer, Trif - and tell her to read all the comments about it! :P
tell her to down load the specs from the internet and fix it
glad to hear it Tirf! lol
hi kad
Yes, there are times that everything is broken, definitely not the best of times. But really...get it fixed, save for a new one or go to bed! And sometimes I need to call one of the kids "tools" because that's how they are behaving. She knows it.
really, go give her a big hug and kisses. tell her you love her.
Hey there jmcnrick! Fireworks btw...need clues anyone?
we tried jmc. I think the adapter in ireland blew it out, and we can't afford to replace it. I vote for read.
but her lady macbeth stinks and she needs to change the scene
Well said, lbd
whoooo hooooo KAD!!!
lol lbd!
okay, going to hug lady mcbeth. be right back
Tell her to TELL HER DAD!
whoo hoo kad
yes, about 60, kad!
and no way! that just makes her madder.
I was thinking something similar kad--it was on her dad's watch it was broken so he should get it fixed
I agree .. have Mr. H fix it .. and have her wait until he does ..
Absolutely...but presented in a well-thought out manner with reasonable positions. Her oldest cousin could give her pointers.
back again. she seems quieter, but still awfully upset. on the plus side - some emotions got out! now, on to the grid, and the hell with the drama
Congrats Kadresa!
go trif go!
glad she got most of it out of her system, Trif
oh, and btw kad - I did read the post you alerted me to earlier this morning. gulp.
Clues for st5 10 please? I have the beer glass, the trying something out, and the 2 sto's -- what am I missing? Thx.
Hey Trif...remember what we discussed at church? Put a "hold" on it for the time being because all kids are overtired and just plain grumpy. Not the best of times to begin a dialogue
never actually decked my son . . . but I did think about it
lol - snap kad! see my post below....
How about the thing they put in your heart or kidney?
s + canvas shelter
s+ slight color hue
TY lbd!
trying something out? Hmmmm
We would NEVER "deck" our kids. Words are the best and well-placed time outs for all parties.
it is fun to imagine though....
4 sto's and one st that means male who is available for sperm donation
unlike Jimmy Carter I feel there is no harm in an active fantasy life!
okay, on that note, i gotta go get myself ready for the morrow. see you all, and good luck with the grid!
goodnight lbd!
Hey Trif...is F helping tomorrow? We had Mom over for dinner and she seemed to think that she had to get S and bring her tomorrow? I thought both were involved.
bye lbd thanks for all the clues as always
The fun part is imagining the look on their face after you body check them into the boards ..
Bye lbd
Bon soit@
I'm a great speller...bon soir!
Goodbye lbdawger! I will see you tomorrow in the log!
Why can't that 'thing they put in your heart and kidney' that kadresa clued, be pluralised? :/
*wondering about sperm donor and how horny gets spelled with st*
lol torg
oh, Jee SUS lets go over this again! Called her to ask if she could bring Secondo. Explained it at least three times. She called me before she left for your house, and I said, no, it was Secondo, not Tertiare. And then she arrived at your house.....
I noticed that too JC...have no idea
Sperm donors and horny? Blimey - what have I been missing?! :P
52 left and I have had enough of this grid. Good night all!
Goodbye Scrabbler! I will see you tomorrow in the log
bye scrabs
LOL JC! pity you are affianced, my friend Russell just got dumped, and you would be so lovely together....
Well, at least she knows she has to get one of them! She seemed very confused this evening, but enjoyed talking endlessly about her upcoming trip (shudder...)
Bye Scrab!
Good night to you, Scrabbler . . .
Erm, it isn't a pity to me - and we'd be too far away, anyway. :P
What made you say that all of a sudden anyway, Trif?
Russell is fabulous JC!
Oh, sweetheart, I know it is not a pity to you, JC! I would just love to see him with someone lovely is all.....your last post made me laugh, and is quite like what he would say.
Well so is my fellow! :)
HAHAHA, I see . . .
st5-12 please...thanks
Just glad you have love in your life!
And thank you for that lovely compliment, Trif! :)
The Enable-accepted def. of that st5 is not the same as the medical device therefore it can't be made plural .. But whatever that definition is ... WHO KNOWS?!?!?!
ga I think it is someone that has a stiff upper lip
Someone who is very closed mouth about things that bother them.
You are right, Trif. Thanks so much.
okay...so clearly *I* am not st5!
Oh yes - that was one of the first words I found!
For some peculiar reason . . .
yvw peach!
Not even a little Trifs ..
so another word for British ;-)
Don't need to be, Trif.
JC, do you eat any sea stuff? Scallops, shrimp, that sort of thing?
Of course not, Trif.
I wasn't sure. sometimes it is no face, no mother....
It's very unhealthy, besides being unethical - but yes, I used to not so long ago, until I learnt better. :/
okay I just realized I don't care about this grid at all
That isn't the only point, Trif.
but you still love us, right jmc?
It's still unhealthy for us, besides unnecessary harm and suffering to other living beings.
Oh yes I definately do I talked about the chog in worship sharing today
You did, JMC?
Do tell? :)
I am reading a very,very excellent book combining wicked old folk medicines with new ways of preparing herbs and such - trying to see if I could be using some of the stuff I have growing wild in the yard. it is a fascinating book, if a bit HUGE
Oh, that does sound interesting, Trif! :)
well Quakers generally worship by sitting in silence waiting for God to speak through them
I do use some herbs - and even have a mortar and pestle. I feel like an apothecary when I'm using it! :P
but in worship sharing we take a particular topic and there is a higher expectation of each person speaking
ra5-10 the 2nd please....thanks
did god talk to you about the chog? or was it more like someone was weighing on your heart?
i have one that rhymes with "to move to music" ga
the topic was "what positive thing is new inyour life?" and I talked about the chog
ra + do you ***d a clue?
trif you can eat parslane in salad
Thank you, kadresa.
also dandelions prior to their blooming
oh, excellent jmc! what a ni4 way to bring the two together! yes, somedays the chog is just so uplifting, isn't it?
this woman who is 83 was quite interested so I may show her the chog before I head back to DC
Glad to be of help. Think I'm off to bed folks. Don't know that I'll see you tomorrow Trif. Bon soir!
thanks jmc, have made note. I have a lot of tansy, and apparently it can be quite useful. I am also trying to find some recipes or at least concoctions for elderberries, which I am overrun with. Nettles, milkweed, etc.
bye kad
bon soir ma soeur! Il a vous que je manque!
elderberries make wine
http://www.elderberries.com/
yes, I am learning that, jmc, but need to research further on HOW. also, I have a gorgeous muscat grape vine that bears bushels of grapes that just go fallow every year. seems a shame
thanks again, jmc. It really is fascinating, learning about all the uses for all these plants that are just here by the grace of God.

in5-14 please....thanks
Grapes and elderberries are good food ..
the mormons who entertained me in Ogden (not the Baptists) gave me grape juice from their home grown grapes
I bought some absolutely GAWGEOUS looking nectarines today, and they ended up in Primo's bag by mistake! he called me from the ferry to say he was sorry, he had just found them, and by the way, could he eat them?
it was from white (green) grapes and a pretty peach color and not too sweet at all
that was money well spent. ah well, at least he is eating well!
in + Library books are *** in 2 weeks ..
okay I am going to sleep I think
see you guys tomorrow
sounds great jmc! I like juice a little on the tart side anyway. I have also been more to the savory, really.
Thanks, torgone.....I'm down to 3 now.
Niters jmc ..
well I will wait for you peach
sleep well, jmc dear
go peach go!
go peach!!!
*putting on jammies*
Go go peach ..
((((everyone hum "the strippper" while jmc changes....))))
[blush] *runs and hides in corner with back turned*
:D
Thank you, jmcnrick.
Go gapeach1066 go!
Any clues for the first te4 5? Thx.
hi everyone
hi andree
how are you all today
Andree!!!! oh, how exciting!!!! how are you dear?
I already have my jammies on . . .
Hello Andree!How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
so, no Stripper for you then, JC!
The te4/5 is more than one Mr. Roosevelt or Kennedy
an4-5 please...Thanks
te45= is like the bear that T.roosevelt shot
ands
what min said
You wouldn't want to see me strip, would you, Trif? :P
TY jmc
don't know. have you been to the gym lately?
Yep, that's it gapeach1066!
that's the one peach! lol
i am fine thx trif , wish business was a bit less slow though
NM...found it. sorry, I typed in wrong place.
sorry andree :(
i don't know why i complain as i do know lots of folks are far worse off
I could actually use a skip, but I think I might be out of your delivery area, sadly
Hi everyone. Trifi, you let your grapes just rot? You can make jams, jellies, juices, and even wine with them. We have 2 or 3 eidelweiss grapevines and we use them every year!
Hello Nef! How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle!
hi nef
I am pledging not too this year, nef. the birds do make great use of them, as do the deer and other mini-bear type creatures, so they don't go completely to waste
Erm, no Trif - don't get time for that. Just exercises here at home when I manage those. :P
nothing worse than a mocking bird drunk on rotting fruit
LOL JC
I gave up procrastinating and just brought my last load of clothes up from the dryer. They still need to be folded; so I put the basket in front of DH and he took the hint! :-D
Refresh though - and tell me if I could possibly look any gayer? HAHAHA - it's my colour! :P
actually, nothing funnier than squirrels on same
good DH!
good for you nef
good LAWD JC, that is pretty high on the Garland scale, there JC!
how many times can I use JC in a sentence? sorry
ot6-18 please....it's the last word.....thanks
HAHAHA, yes - well, it's a Samba shirt.
I don't know; my little 10 lb. shitz-poo once treed a drunken racoon in our yard. Poor racoon was really having a tough time hanging on to the tree!
wi6/30 please
very gay --er cheerful--J.C
ot + not you + sugary ending
We were doing a demo at a school - the kids were less than impressed, although some of them did have a few laughs! :P
lol nef
ot 6/19 word is means lazy or indolent gapeach1066.
you are a brave, brave man, JC
school kids are brutal!
I thought they would've just been glad to get out of class and away from their lessons, for a while. :P
That wi 6/30 word is like a hotdog Andree
Oh yes - I was laughed at (people tend to laugh at me - imagine?) and called a 'fairy' - but as that's what I am, I'm never insulted by it. ;)
but isn't it worth it to know that at least one little soul was watching you with a thrill in their heart, validation in front of their eyes?
thx min
yw
how's it going peach?
Hmmm . . . were they, Trif? :P
you need to read "when I knew...." oh, it is such a lovely book!
wish i could raid your cupboard jc, i am going to a fancy dress party[ sisters 60th] on weekend and it had been agony deciding
peach?
HAHAHA - raid my closet for what, Andree? You wouldn't find me in there, that's safe to say! ;) I'm OUT of there!
fancy dress means a costume, right, not an actual fancy dress?
Thank you, Trif. That was the last one for this grid. Sweet dreams, y'all.
COngratulations gapeach1066 on fireworks! Hooray!
well done peach! so glad I could help!!!
<-- Has been out of the closet a long, long time. :P
whoo hoo peach!!
Goodbye gapeach1066!I will see you tomorrow maybe
bye all *poof*
yes jc , its come as a character from your favourite musical
bye gap
Which one, Andree?
pick oh, calcutta - problem solved!
Goodbye jmcnrick! I will see you tomorrow in the log!
Can anyone tell me how to put pictures on facebook?
I did it a couple of times, Min, but the last 2 times I tried I messed up.
it was hard to choose as there have been so many musicals i have loved, but laziness got the better of me and i have made the nuns dress and striped apron which maria wears in the 1st scene in sound of music
I had trouble getting an icon picture,but finally did it
I still think you should have gone with "oh, calcutta"
Go to profile/photos/create album ..
Thanks torgone! I'll try it. Want to post wedding pics
lol trif, that wasn't on my list, have never seen it but get the drift
think of the sewing you would have saved! :D
anyhow my outfit is really ugly and i may not forgive my sister for this, for her 50th i went as a tart in a black petticoat but alas 10 years later i would just look as though i need serious help
is this a costume party?
yes ruru
oh. fun...
it sounds like fun, Andree
andree, how do you describe a party where you need to dress up in formal wear?
a tart or Madonna?
it depends on your opinion of madonna ruru
maybe that is an oxymoron..
black tie trif
I've never been to a B'day party where the guests need to dress up.
oh, I see. so "fancy dress" means costumes, and not formal wear, ever?
my sister does it for all her parties, its most annoying
go dressed as your sister - that might do it.
I went to a polyester party once that was a total blast
Hello rururocks!How are you? Welcome to the puzzle
hi miver..glad to see you are making cents for once...lol
My younger sister turns 60 this month and I was just trying to figure out if I could get out to Montana for the event. Unfortunately, my workweek won't allow it; but I *could* make it the following week.
oh, that sounds really funny ruru! LOTS of potential for train wrecks, definitely!
and 1 of my friends did fancy dress for each of her 3 kids 18ths and 21sts, that was fun as mine were still at home and we coordinated
LOL rururocks! It's about time I made some cents!
I wore teal blue tight pants, big white belt, eiffel tower purple shir opened to the navel, with a Mr. T starter set and BIG sunglasses.....and white shoes
photos man, we need photos!
wish I had them..
whoot ruru
I weighed about 165 lbs then
Hey, ruru!!! :)
HIYA JC!!!
babblers, our mission is clear. someone, somewhere took photos of ruru that night. you know what you need to do. be well.
great photo
J.C., that's quite the shirt!
HAHAHA - well, here's ahot pink/fuschia shirt, opened to the navel. :P Good thing I had shaven first, hmmm? God, that would NOT have been a good look, otherwise!
It's a Samba shirt, Nef - we were doing a ballroom dance demonstration, at a school - the kids were less than impressed! :P
OMG!..lol
i am surprised they didn't love it jc, something a bit different
That looks like you stole it from Barry Manilow
LOL
They weren't impressed with the costume, or was it the dance? <muttering "dumb kids!">
Takes a lot to impress kids these days
Well, some had a good laugh at us, Andree - and I'd rather make anyone laugh, than make them cry! ;)
nudge for ti, 5, 12 please?
Oh come on now, ruru - it's much prettier than anything Manilow would wear! ;)
ti* can + conneticutt abreviation
similar to ti888ure of iodine
thank you very much!
not so sure about that JC.. he can get dolled up too
Obviously my typing stinks tonight!
how did they react to the dancing, J.C.?
re888y?
okay, 47 left, I am calling it. time of interest in grid death, 11:36 pm
ruru :-P
grid death?
Torgone,are you still here? have another FB question
death of interest in grid
night friends.
oh..thought we needed nun Andree to do a service for the death of the grid
Goodbye Trifioso! I will see you tomorrow in the chat
nite trif... have a nice evening...
night Trifi. BTW, How late did you have to stay up to meet up with the boys last night?
2
BUT I got my own back - made them usher at communion for the 9:30 this morning. happy little methodists, all!
YUK! Sleep well tonight
LOL! Good for you! :-D
Sorry, back and forth between the cooker and this! :P
bye trif
Well, Nef, kids usually aren't terribly enthused about ballroom dancing - and these were no exception! :P
We did make them laugh, though - so all was not lost! ;)
Guess torgone is gone. Does anyone else know about posting pictures on your wall in facebook?What does location box mean after the album name box?
Are you on MySpace, Minveryork?
I don't know; I do remember when my kids were in elementary school they were fascinated by a dance demo at their school
i can't help min, i kno less than zip about facebook
ti6 and 7 please
n ices
ti6/21 is plural of the ti 5/12 word and ti 7/36 is the past tense of that same ti 5/12 word Andree.
I also know less than zip about facebook.Still learning
thx min
ti5 past tense is the 7
ti 6 is a plural of same
have to make din din.. back later... carry on!
Goodbye rururocks!I will see you tomorrow in the log
thx ruru
bye ruru
Darn! Facebook is NOT letting me upload the photos!
Oh dear. I just realized I only have 1 of the 7 letter words so far (I do have the 8's done
Nef, do you want clues for the other 7-letter words?
3 left, missing 2nd co6/21 help please
Thanks for the offer, Min, I found a 2nd one. I went to the list now with one hour to go)
Andree, I don't have it yet
co6/21:a geometric term: co plus si 4/4 word Andree
i have that must be the other co6 i am after, my last word
co 6/21 is to be more warm and comfortable Andree.
Miniver, go to your facebook wall page, click on photos. You should see add album on the right. Create an album and then you should be able to add photos by browsing your photos. You might have to use the simple uploader instead of the first one you come to.
thx min and fireworks
Congratulations Andree on fireworks! Hooray for you
Hello mklein! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
Yes, I tried doing that on FB and it still did not work.
and now back to work for me, happy babbling all
YAY, Andree! WTG!!!
Goodbye Andree! I will see you tomorrow in the chog!
Thank you for the welcome. I usually am here, but not chatting. I really enjoy facebook tho so I thoght I'd try to lend a hand
I think it is the version of IE I am using. Need to use a new version of Internet Explorer I think. I'm on my hubby's computer, so need to try it on my computer.
I love your dog pic mk! What breed is it?
That's a good question. Our best guess is half boxer and half something else. No telling what that other half is.
My guess would be Greyhound, mklein?
Unless the dog is a lot taller - possibly Great Dane, then?
My dogs are both mongrels, also - adopted rescues. :)
One is still a puppy - got him in May.
He? looks so sweet. I have a friend that had the sweetest boxer that went blind at about 8 years. She was still a sweet dog, but she got her circadian rhythm screwed up at the end of her life (I think she was almost 10 when she dies)
I usually think of greyhounds as slender, and he's very stocky and strong. We've always dog's that wer part boxer. Theyre the best.
Awww, that's young for them to die, Nef. :( Well, Boxers don't have the longest life-spans. My first dog since I moved out of my parents' home was another mongrel I adopted from Battersea, a small dog - and she lived to be 19! I was just 21 when I adopted her, and had to puther down a couple days after my 40th birthday. I still miss her, and always will . . . :(
He's big, but not that big - about 75 pounds and a real sweetie.
Is he very tall, mklein?
Or smaller than a Boxer?
Hard to tell, in that photo?
All of our pets have always been mutts from the pound or animals that people couldn't care for anymore (for 1 or another reason)
My puppy is brindle - he's half Jack Russell and half Staffie.
what's a staffie?
Yes, Nef- same here. I can't think of buying from a breeder, when tere are already too many dogs and cats out there, in need of homes. :(
A Staffordshire Terrier, Nef - they're a Bull Terrier breed.
Pretty tall - I don't have to bend over to reach his collar, and he looks me in the eyes when he stands on his back legs - He's brindle too.
Erm - when 'there'. My typing's flying out the window.
Then he could be part Greyhound, mklein - with that coat, which is why I thought that. He could get the stockiness form the Boxer.
I now have my second Shiz-poo mix. The first one was from the pound and was very smart. This one is dumber than a doorknob; but he's cute. (I got him because he was being neglected0
Or Great Dane, perhaps?
If he's very tall, perhaps he is part Dane?
He's not so much tall as I am short.
He's a beautiful-looking dog, whatever he is! ;)
he has such a cute face! I'd have trouble disciplining him with that face! :-D
You're right there. He's a terrible beggar and usually gets a snack.
LOL!
HAHAHA - he knows how to use that face for all it's worth, just like mine do! ;)
Here - I'll post a photo of my dogs, hold on.
His name is Worry Wart, from the wrinkled forehead. He really uses it too.
do you know about how old he is?
Tomorrow's theme is pet icon Monday, so that would be a good icon J.C. I think I'll post one of my dog too.
OK, refresh - and you'll see it.
Valerie is the black dog (Whippet cross), and Albie is the puppy . . .
Around six - he was a stray about 8 weeks old when I found him
they are so cute, J.C.!
He's Albert - 'Albie' for short. A tip of the hat to the Nathan Lane character in one of my favourite films, 'The Birdcage'. :)
Valerie was less than impressed with him at first - as you can see in that photo! Doesn't the look on her face say it all ? HAHAHA!
That is a GREAT picture J.C.! Perfect for tomorrow!
Thank you, Minveryork - and Nef! ;)
Your dogs are adorable and your place sounds wonderful. My son lives in Brighton- is it anywhere near romney marsh?
Brighton isn't a terribly long car trip from here. It's lovely there, too.
Say hello to your son for me! ;)
I spent May there, and it was great. Such a nice change from Dallas heat. I will say hello to him.
ranced
Oh did you??? My birthday was in May - a milestone. You didn't even come help me celebrate, shame on you! ;)
sorry,
Actually he babbles too, sometimes so He might even be on at times.
Oh does he? What's his player name?
Do you have a Yahoo! acccount, by any chance, Margo?
If I had only known...
Yes, but I use Facebook now more than Yahoo.
wow dont see one clue down the chat. amazing.
That's OK - anyone with a Yahoo! account automatically has a profile page there, they can connect to others' pages, Margo - and we have a little network on there, with some of the Babblers in it. :)
How might I find yours, to send a connection request?
Too much nattering going on, mkg. :P
Hello mkg! How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle
I've looked for babbler's on facebook, but haven't found the group yet. You can look for Margotenk on facebook and that will be me.
well need those clues. only have 63 words and very stumped. dont do lickety till half done.
hi min
There are many times I enter and see no clues in log.
I'm not on there, Margo - and won't be.
I am the same way mkg. Don't list or look for clues til I am halfway done.I can help you with clues if needed
It doesn't suit my purposes . . .
How might I find you on Yahoo!, though?
is the toin used at all?
I'm not sure J.C The main reason I got interested in facebook was to list photos, especially while I was in England. My email is mmkleinq@yahoo.com
Well yes, I do that on Flickr and MySpace. Thank you, Margo - I will send a connection invite to that address now, so watch for it. ;)
i am not getting this grid thru monkeys at all. darn. 70 words and so stumped. any clues out there for the 8s??
toin is not used
Thanks J.C - I'l watch for it.
Well, Margo - I see you have a Yahoo! Profiles page, already filled in. :)
Go here, and you'll see the connection request in the upper right part of the page, to accept . . . http://profiles.yahoo.com/
Once you log into your account, that is. ;)
an8 is a licorice flavored liquer
got the an word for the lic. flavored stuff but not the liquor.
oh got the liquor. ty ty
now anyone got a clue for other 8? then sleep awaits me.
te8 is te+vowel+ Blessed *a**t Patrick+vowel
