TA 6
you can have that, pini, go to the bank and ask to change the PIN

CR 6
as with much of life, pini :)

Hi
herin???????
that was hi bak
oh...thought maybe computor had done something naughty again
still on for friday?
Yep
Yes. SOry
good, just remember, i'm still not fully ambulant.might have to look into shop mobility.
That is ok. We can do that. If you need it let me know and we will book a chair and I can play rally racing with you :D
could be interesting, being whizzed around chaddy by you.
Just kidding I wouldn't do that we could hire a Granny skooter
think it might be wisest, we can always knock it back.
Well have a look at the Chaddy Westfield site and book one at the Info both
okay, will do
That way you can have one. Do you have a Disable Sticker?
sure do, herin. and the site says to ring to make a booking, so will do so tomorrow
Yah. We can get a spot right outside Coffee bean and Tea or Wessuck
looking forward to it * grin * i do so like shopping with you
Yah
Friday is going to be bloody warm
i do have an appointment friday, 1000, am sure to be on the road by 1100. if i'm a little late, don't panic.

Oh and funny. I have stacked on the weight and 6 pairs of pants don't fit

Hello Fish
good morning babblers :)
Hi Nono
my time is limited this am so I am diving right into the grid
Go Nono go!
whoa, found 2 co8's and a 9 already
You are a word-searching animal, Nono! My biggest = 3 6's.
you compete in a co7/37, pl for the 8
TY! I tend to be happy to find a 4 and not go further.
white is a co8/48 to black and pl for the 9
TY, Nono, now return to your search mission!

Hi annie
Hello Annie!
Hi you two! and everyone in babbleland
I found 117 words in 20 min.
I'm going to the kitchen to make coffee, will bring back some.
good for you, scrabbs
thats damn good Scrabbs
I have 132 so far
I am a typing maniac
I have gotten into my pants in a week and a half, yahoo
I am using www.sparspeople.com
Dieting I assume?
my doc said I needed to loose 20lbs, so I am going for it
corrections: sparkspeople.com
free and easy
dont say that word scrab
it makes me hungry
The ongoing struggle to lose wt....oy vey
back with coffee, milk, cream, sugar and bagels and vegetable cream cheese---please help yourself!
any lox?
This is the 300th day of the year, with 65 days remaining in 2009.
Must get ready for work. I just got a page from an angry mother--demands chest x-ray for kid. I told her office opens at 8 but she was ranting. H1N1 anxiety is making parents upset.
Good luck, Scrabbler
jeepers.
sue, when you are on a di4, lox or smoked salmon is a low calorie food
Good morning all!
evening all :)
and very good for you annie
hiya mrp!
hello
hi nonnie :))
hi mrp, nonnie, hurshy, BR
hi sue, annie, BR et al :)

hugs to you nonnie! :)
hi Haz :)
Hi Hazel
Thanks Haz.
Good morning/evening all. Lots of words today!
hello Haz
Hello Haz
I am missing 3 C words
haz, how much have i got to worry about mo4 as a prefix?
I'm dismayed by the mo7/32.
hear, hear
NBT - now I can go to work with a smile on my face. I hope everyone has a wonderful day!
I tried it and was horrified.
Bye Nonnie.
bye nonnie!
Bye Nonnie.
me too haz we got a clout at school for saying words like deadest etc
One more C words
have been watching the doco called '21 Up' from various countries... incredible stories
I know. But at least it wouldn't accept bestest if it were in the grid.
Haz. How come you lot in the UK seem to get the best dross mags on celebrates
We do?
There seem to be lots of them, I'll grant you that.
somehow i doubt that's one of haz's many areas of expertise, though...
what is a dross mag
I look at the front pages on the shelves but can't summon up the interest to delve deeper.
well, dross is what you burn away to purify gold - the crap clinging to the valuable stuff.
Its a trashy Celeb mag.
nice metaphor, really.
oh OK tx hurshy - feel the same as Haz
I see them online because I really think its kind of creepy to make stories up and stalk people. The only valuable stuff in those mags for me is recipes and crosswords
I'm assuming people must buy them but it seems to be the same 'celebrities' facing the same crises week after week.
Two pounds gained, that kind of thing.
dross must be uses in a dyslogistic sense
used, that is
I have to go watch the Catherine Tate Show... too right and so wrong! bye all :)
Night Mr P
really struggling to get to 100 left
Going to take a break, I'll be back later. Bye for now!
good morning..omg,no sense even starting this one;((
hi crossy!

Good afternoon everyone.
good day elder
Hi Elder
The C and Ms are a PITA
pita bread? lol
pain in the arse
bread ?. :)
ahh..new acronym
Hi Elder
there is POS and PITA I feel this grid has good potential to be both
My brain so pure, I cannot even start to de code that Herin.
POS -Piece of sh?? and Pain in the Arse
herin, got those. :)
This grid does flow nicely
Herin, Belated 'Happy Birhtday' greetings. :)
Oh thank you
Morning all. This grid is too big today. I gotta work; even if it's an easy grid I don't have the time for this one.
Your welcome. :)
HI Nef
Nef, it starts well...
hi herin. You've had a birthday lately? Happy Belated Day, Girl!
aww Thank you Nef. i did on Saturday
hi elder.. It's nice to know it starts out easy; it's the sheer size that scares me off
did you do anything special for you day? Any "special" gifts?
I did. B.f spoilt me rotten. DVD's cds and Pc Game
o and lunch and dinner out
NICE! :-D
He is a good sort. He even took the trash out no questions needed
Wow; that's extra special!
Yes
The CDs / DVD were second hand but still got very spoilt
if he did it without being told; then you better hang on to him for sure!
Well I put the DVDs and CDs on hold for my self with intentions of paying for it. But he bought it. The gme Sims 3 and CD of Lilly Allen was a suprise
if they were ones you like/wanted and don't have any skips, I don't think it matters if they are 2nd hand
sounds like a very special gift then! :-)
Yes. Well Torchwood is still hideously expensive but I got this half price. Tis from a store we trust
great!
We both know one of the sales staff. What have you been doing with yourself Nef
Yikes! I just saw the time; gotta get my butt in gear! Hope you guys have a great day; and herin, I hope your special day lasts all year long! (((Herin))) <birthday hugs>
Good morning and suffixes reign on the grid!
Loves Nef have a good day
Hello Merk.and bye Nef.
I've been WORKING! Co-worker had surgery, so I have been working dble time; plus DH's Aunty fell and broke both wrists (at 84!) so she is here at our house until all healed.
wow Nef. I remember that
I'm trying to teach her to play Babble; she can't type yet; but she does give me words when we do play!
Maybe a big old pen and crossword?
anyway, off to work! Bye now!
And Happy Birthday, Herin ... many more wonderful ones in years to come, too.
Oh Thank you Merk
d
I send good healing vibes to your Aunty Nef.
Happy Tuesday, Babblonians!
oh Judi, just come on Wednesday here! but promise Tuesday will be a nice day!!
Mr. P! Nice to see you! I shall be glad to take the international date line into consideration.
you are a sweetheart judi! as usual... (hugs)
((cuddles)) Aww. Thanks.
PBJ and a Juice Box for breakfast. just like the good ole days. :)
hmmm, sounds healthy eva!
Morning, Eva. Very retro.
heh, thanks judi. ;)
sleep has a name tonight... and it is mrpresident. night all :)
Criminy. I guess we'll all get our fill of plurals today.
gnite MrP!
Night, Mr. P!
Morning Everybody.
Hiya, Hego
morning, all . . . 92 to go and gazing longingly at the list :-)
hi judi, hego, night mr p and hi to Une
mornin hego :)
hello friends. Thanks for reminding me to swap my profile pic evanadine! I had forgotten, as usual!
Morning, Une. It's a whopper today.
hey, annie :-)
whopper indeed!
Hi Trif
howdy, trif!
YW trif. :) its the first time i have changed mine since the engagement photo was put up. :)
yes, I must admit, I don't change mine very often...
orange and avocado -- yeehaw! LOL
Gosh darn. I got rid of my scanner too soon. I would be able to scan a good childhood picture. I was wearing feety pajamas and had fallen into my bottom dresser drawer. I got stuck. My parents thought it was hilarious and took pictures. Pig tails and legs akimbo.
That'one heck of a ring you have,
judi LOL!!
i used to change mine daily, but that was back when i actually had time to babble more often. nowadays, ill pop in here in the morning, then maybe once or twice throughout the day. stupid work keeps me busy these days. :(
lol judi! I have a few shriekers too, but my scanner isn't hooked up at present, so the bad prom one will have to do
be happy you HAVE work, eva! I would love to find a good job right about now, but nothing, nothing, nothing
Eva's doning something right. Lots of luck, Honey
heh, thanks hego -- he did an ASTOUNDING job choosing a ring. :)
true, trif. no matter how cranky i may get here, i know i have it great, compared to so many others!
Sure did.
It was a curse being the youngest child in the family, Trif. I only got photographed when I did something stupid. And of course, my mother cut my hair until I was about 11, so I had the uneven chopped bangs going for me.
for the record, its not one big giant rock, though it does look like that in the photo. but the center stone is still pretty darn big!
judi -- when i was, i dunno, 12-ish, my mom bought me my first bra-and-panties set for christmas. she told me to go try it on to make sure it fit + then she took pictures of me in it!! i was *mortified!*
eva, the horror!! LOL
oh, that is the WORST eva!!! lol
OMG, Eva. Horror! People get locked up for that these days.
anyone have a clue for el8?
?is there a mo8/45 please???
dont have it Tins
annise, starts out with stretchy stuff in your waistband
Don't have either of those.
*annie
ends in police zapper
thanks Une
mo8 is (prepare yourself) plural of mo7
stoopid
Highly suspicious word!
ty une i was pulling my hair out
no kidding!
sheesh, would never have thought mo8 as a word but then I had the mo7 so?
Very suspicious
hmmm. don't have the mo 7 yet...well, i have one, but it's already plural....
now I do. silly word!
trif -- i am the hostess with the MO7!
and i am sure you are, eva!
Traaaaaamp.
Hmm. Babble glitch there. Had to X out and re-enter.
Yes Judi there was a glitch.
all i know is judi called me a tramp and i ran into the corner and cried my eyes out. *bottom lip still quivering*
Oh, Poor baby.
There, there.
Egad! I caused two meltdowns. Babble and Eva. I shall repent in the penalty box for my sins.
*sniffles*
You just want all that wine and cheese in there, Judi
Eclairs in the penalty box! *hands peace offering dozen to Eva*
oh, you can keep the eclairs -- i heard there was CHEESE in the pb!
Shall I make a panini for you?
huge mother today, is lickety up?
(hi)
Tons of cheese
Affirmative, Harpjane. And, good morning!
glad to hear it!
no panini needed. im good with cheese, straight up. ;)
I bought Gouda Goat cheese and an unpronouncable cheese combo made of goat, cow and sheep's milks.
Delish!
so far i think i've been able to plural every word i've found
Big plural day.
Love those s's
i don't suppose it will go this quickly all day....
fireworks!
Finally finished the 5 million Cee's
someone said cheese...
Crossy!
howdy judi;)
YAY for Merk!!!!!
Congrats, Merk!
Congrats Merk and you too Annie
Not to discourage you because the grid is very friendly, it also felt like 5 million m words and s. Enjoy all the suffixes. Without them it feels like you'd have less than half the words.
wtg Judi and see you all tomorrow
oh i c what you mean about the c's
this grid seems like a bottomless pit atm;/
what do the 9's start with?
Almost tedious
Someone wrote Sunday that the weekend grids kept us honest. Monday and Tuesday have not been slouchy either.
co, jane
mo9
mo is one, too. It's a plural
mm lots of nice big c words though;))
both 9 are plural. The co is easy.
bye then
co 9/60 and mo 9/66
Someone asked for an mo8 clue earlier: Mo8/50 and 9/66: single ruler.
nice clue Judi
Down to 160 with 4 boxes greyed out. Urgh. time for a break....
Great, Judi

I like the Cohen quote especially, BR
congrats, stid, on getting the school you wanted
well, I am not there yet... but usually there is a requirement that a person not student teach where they or their children attended... and both are true for me. However, since my ultimate goal is to teach at our neighborhood school, I may request it! And I will...

Good afternoon all.
Hi all. I'm here lurking. Just logged on for a few to see if I could find any quickly. Have too much to do today to finish.
finally starting to grey out boxes!
Hello Carol. It's a pretty rich grid for finding words quickly.
hi all. too many to go.
I've found 88. Not too good.

Hello Ata.
oops!
Hi Again All. Hi Annie and Eva.
Hello hego.
Hi Haz
I was in the kitchen, hi Haz, hego, Ata, Carol, phae
Hello, Annie.
Hi Annie
hi annie
can someone help with the no 5/12? I have the one that sounds like without a parent....tia
faeriekay turned up earlier!
The other one is the same save for the final vowel, Kateq.
Did she really? It's ages since I've seen her!
yep!!
ty Haz--I thought I tried that (of course)
annie was thre to confirm it
You're welcome, Kate.
This must have been pre-flip? How is she doing?
Faeriekay made an appearance
when did faerie turn up, annie?
Found 101, going back to housework. May try later. Trying not to list yet.
She came in about 2 hours ago
I saw her briefly but was lurking
She didnt stay long.
It was a cameo appearance.
It's funny, some people from the past do just turn up unexpectedly.
tis!
Aint it jus?
if you dont already have a favorite,here is a great little online dictionary... http://ninjawords.com/ubiqitious
I'll be in and out a bit, better get started cooking.
Bye, Haz
I have to go to the post office. Bye.
welp, finally got ahold of the car rental place. gots everything all booked.
also booked my massage.
booked 2 wedding dress appointments.
called the medical company about my bills.
talked to the fiance last night about wedding stuff.
i am ON the BALL!
Eva, what's your wedding date?
you are on fire! lol..want to come over and do my laundry? lol
october of next year. we havent settled on a specific date yet, but im thinking 10/16
Sounds great! Enjoy!!
hi all, what a monster today!

ooops
I guess I should say Hi.
are you a knight, gail?
hello :)
Snigger - A knight who says ni...
LOL
I am also a member of the society for putting things on top of other things.
good, good. very useful skill, that
comes handy for storing books and assembling cakes
Especially the books.
bbs. gonna make some toast and nutella and maybe some jam
lovely pic, Gail :)
Thank you. He is looking handsome, as always.
books!!!
I have too many books.
books books books books!
you can't have too many books! 8-)
no such thing
That's true.
phantom: creosote!
you need someone to take books off your hands? (hint hint) LOL
good one!
I do, but I need someone to *pay* me for them LOL
atalante: you have any nonfiction?
lots :P
but the shippinh might be rather expensive LOL
actually, I have a big collecion of books on ancient egypt I want to try and sell
if you want to send me a list of what you want to sell (title, author, publisher, date, binding) I would behappy to look it over and maybe make an offer
phantom: contessa!
ooo ok
sooo many phantoms
goodmorning peoples
comatose....
lol hi all
please be aware, books must be in good condiiton or better: no missing pages, no highlighting, no serious tears or creases, no mud or blood, etc
good one kallia
I have probably typed crashes at least ten times.
all my books are in as new condition :)
I look after my babies :)
EX -- cellent!
yay. bread to5ing away :)
mmmmmm
I bought some raspberry and lavendar jam yesterday and am desperate to try it
oh, yummy, ata
i'm going for some combo of nutella, honey, and marmite
probably not all at once :)
yesterday's breakfast - toast and advocado - very yummy
yes, that is yummy, lyn. i sometimes sprinkle with garlic salt and cilantro, too.
i have a jar of "green goo" -- some concoction my parents friends make -- that you serve over cream cheese on crackers. i really really really want some, but alas, i have no cream cheese!
what's it taste like, EvaN?
or avocado and cheese
You lost me with cilantro - coriander repeats on me terribly.
totally don't eat it then :) Tom agrees with you, so i rarely have any in the house anymore
cilantro is the beeeeest
to5 dinged, brb
Ata - do you call it cilantro in the UK? it is just coriander here. I had to googe it when I first heard cilantro
the recipe of green goo is a mystery. but it seems like it might be some sort of sweet relish + jalapenos or something like that. it is mostly sweet with a little kick...
Eva, it's pepper jelly
pepper jelly. explain... :)
It's made with either regular peppers or jalepenos or both. Just like any jelly
pepper jelly, yes, that matches
looks easy to make too
no, coriander here absolutely. I'm just used enough to hearing cilantro from time in Oregon
here in NA, cilantro is the leaf, coriander the seed, though coriander leaf is known due to people from India
it's delicious anyway. I've put it on top if cheddar cheese before.
to5 with Nutella and black currant jam in the end :)
i like calling it "green goo" heh
3 squares greyed, I'm going well here
go, go lyn! I've only greyed the J, and yet have 123 to find
i've been at this since 9 am est, and have 51 to go
only 1 grey square here, 158 to go
ooh, 2 grey squares now
phantom: attract!
contessa is in the grid, just not in enable
so, is it a phantom or do we have some other label for it?
i think such needs a label
enabletom
unable
entom
unablet
disable
oooooh, i like that, kateq - Unable: contessa
real-word-that's-not-in-the-stinkin-e nable-dictionary
indeed, gwen. there's a thread in bab anon about them
phanabletom (expanding on atalante's word)
phantom: casette!
cassette!
mis-enable
cassssette!
good one, gwen
that's turning in to a snake
both casette and cassette are phantoms 8-(
Howdy all 8) 6 left.

Smelling salts rushed over to Gwen! ASAP

Finished, thank heaven! Some really nasty name must be thought up for the words that are in grids, but not in enable - I haven't been able to think of one that really expresses how they make me feel, I'm afraid. Good luck all.
mmmmffmmm

You can have no idea how many times I tried to enter creosote, though - my phantom of the day!

4 sh's

phantom: crassest
sh5 is like what a new englander would pronounce to take cover under
i proposes a word for a word not in enable: a CRASS!!
sh5 is a language descened from Irish
sorry Gwen - that IS in enable
gwen to the pb :-)
no, not a word that is not in enable, a word for a word that is not in enable
as in, contessa is a CRASS!!! oops, a CR5!!!!!!
and the lady is a tramp ;)

come on Ata, get a move on. by the way, do you know there is an el8.40
I'm having a bad day :( Something very nasty happened to Hobbit earlier. Much distraction!
!!!!What???
what happened to Hobbit?
she fell down a 5m high ladder and landed with a bit of a splat on hard rock
but she's fine
but it was a bit of a scare!
likely bruised, and will be stiff for a bit
very bruised, very stiff, still the possibility of internal bleeding, but the vet's very optomism
oh gee...poor baby and poor Ata!
*optimistic
ty for EL8 :)
oh, no, poor Hobbit! That's quite a fall.
sorry to hear that Ata
it was horrendous
but she's ok:):):):)::):):)
???
hence lots of words left!
was not sure my earlier message posted
is she staying at the vet's for a bit?
nope, she's here and curled up at my feet
she'll be more cautious for a while, maybe...
give her an earscratch for me when she next stirs - silly silly dog
I spent the afternoon lying in bed reading with her cuddled into my side. She always wants that when she's hurting!
*not* a very constructive use of time! But hey ...
hopefully. ha. she's a spaniel .....
57 left, going to list, don't want to spend all day on this
this kind of grid makes me want to list with 150 left, though I usually won't at all or at least not until I'm under 40 or 50.
i listed with 157 left
I want to get to about 70
lol, I don't feel too bad then.

hi all
hi Boo
how come contessa isn't in the dictionary?
cos enable sucks
I tried that, too, hursh, and was disappointed also.
ohhhhh, well, if only i had known.
I guess because it isn't in everday usage enough
Yeah, I was so excited when I saw it... and then it was for naught.
oops, I said a word, off to the pb (al4)
I hardly think lack of everyday usage bothers Enable most of the time!
Hello, all!
it has a capital letter because it's a title
so is co5, though
and ea4
well, i have one 9 which is co9, what is the other 9?
I thonk it has to be everyday usage for foreign words though
clue for the co9 plz hursh
mo9
mo9
clue for ac 7 pls
compare and co8. then pl.
ac7 - female who ac4
i second boobear's motion
ac7 Meryl Streep for one
ta hursh
*red face*
ok so what is the MO9 one of?
i tried one-flavor earlier, ng
mo9 is two of one of rulers -lol
hi hurshy
mo 9/66 not republicans but a demo*****
why thank you vi!
and need i use this prefix for any other words?
ty luv
yw kje
only the 4 &5 Hurshy
well, use it on its own
well, i guess that's something to be grateful for.
shall we collaborate on 8's?
hi all!
hi nrkii
hello, nrkii.
I only have 9 of the 8's hurshy, so not sure how much help I'd be
i have: co8x2, ma8x2, mo8x2, os8, and re8
2 ma8 and one ma7 that are missing something
i only have 8, nrk! the key is to see if we have different ones.
es8 hursh
el8.40
wow it seem this one has no short cuts, it will be a miserable 375 words, two by two
3 mo 8 hursh
oh man, i saw that earlier and wouldn't put it in bc i wasn't on the E's yet! (the es)
hi there, nrkii
3 mo8
hi peri
okay, so I'm missing an ma8 and an el8, and one other 8
*taking no5... EL, another MO*
do you have no-weight or no-sail-holder-upper ?
got the EL!
I was missing that second one
i really think i should be able to say my castle is mo4le4.
I could have sworn I had tried that second one. Must have mistyped it or something.
did i orget to say hi? hi, all
Hello, TO.
hi TO
hi TOwl
hi, Owl
geez nrk you rea really photogenic!
hursh did you find your missing MO8?
thanks owl :)
nope... i have the singular of the 9, obviously, and one that makes me think of the rockies
(thinking... does that mean, wow, she doesn't look that good in person?) :)
the hostess with the mo etc
you need pl of a weird slang, as in the hostess with the mo-
the other one is the mo4 mo4
geez loiuse1 :/
LOL owl
43 left, another break, bbs
i blame the hour or my lousy pics
see ya peri!
hello friends - just a few quick mins to babble before I dash out again, redistributing children...
I think we all came out good in those pictures, though...
hi trifioso
are you saying i really look THAT bad?
hiya!
Hello, Trifioso.
;D
oh, vicuna, how exciting about your show!!!! I will definitely come!~
ha! Owl... we all posed pretty and looked good to start with :)
geez, the 7 was bad enough, but to plural it!
oh news flash: we were told today that testing is pushed back and we will be done dec 18 :( :( :(
Cool, Trif! That would be fun! Doren stopped by with her granddaughter last year.
yay vicuna!
ok, so nrk and i are missing one 8 now, presumably the same one.
how exciting for you to be showing!
Yeah, I really enjoy it.
oh no, owl... 2 more months of travel?
MEANING we may lose our vacation time without high level intervention. our vice is alreay on record to say he will not let us carry it into the new year
is that even legal owl?
and we have been denied the plan to go work rom home or a ew weeks
I don't know about PA, but in NJ I'm pretty sure you can't do that (vacation)
it is always at mgt discretion. they will say you had all year.
hi all
That's seriously lame, TO. =(
how awful, TO
well, great, then they have no reason to not let you take it now!
Hello, jmc.
hi jmc
can you use it up quick now?
depends on what the contract says but most employment contracts have use it or lose it provisions for vacation
that's crazy... if you knew this was coming, then the "you had all year" excuse can work, but how were you to know?
no. just a few days
jmc, that's fine, if they let you use it!
btw, isn't there such a thing as as*le4 chaps... ?
Yep, I tried that one, too, hursh! lol
on the bright side i get out at 4 and now i think i should go walk although it's drizzling
clue for as 6/18
Just imagine the contessa must be wearing them.
as6/18 - declare. The other's a pl
which one??? as6 the situation, as6 your rights, count your as6
as 6 18 ... to evaluate
assess
Yeah, we've got the as6/18's covered!
=o
temple to the pb box for you

hi tor
*swaggers in and sits down next to nrk* HELLO ALL!!!
Hello, torgone.
hi ya stid!
Heyas kids ..
nope to the bar. i am moving to a hotel with one in the lobby next week.
And hello, stidmama.
hi stid and torgone
nice plan owl!
sounds like a plan TO
hi Stid
how can you have a commotion if you can't commote?
i will need it. OR i could start christmas shopping since i will be here until then
Hi stid! Did you survive last night's storm okay?
hi stid
hey, I got a 625 score in Lexulous yesterday! I doubt I'll ever see anything even remotely close to that again
I am feeling cocky at the moment, I just received word that my final transcript arrived at the graduate school office, so I am officially down to needing only 8 more credits (for one endorsement) plus this grad school stuff in order to have three subject area endorsements!!! *pleased mama-teacher look*
wow nrk.... *bows before great lexulosity*
Congrats stid and nrkii!
Yay for nrkii and stidmama!
good for you stid!!! (much more real achievement than my lex score)
good deal stid
and wtg nrk
the storm wasn't as bad where we are ch, though it was still a bit of a blow. Our power flickered once or twice. You?
it was a fluke stiddy... I just kept getting bingos... very freaky
I had a bingo once.... a L-O-N-G time ago!
not that much of a fluke... you killed me the last two games in a row.
Quiet as a spring lamb up this way, but I saw on the news it hit east Seattle harder.
yes, the winds often come up over the mountains and then only really reach ground level on that shore...
hurshy, I've never gone over 500 points before, so getting 625 was definitely a fluke...
ok who wants to accompnay me to dinner & bar?
me!!!
I go to a bar
still, given my 'druthers, I'll take the even more sheltered coves of the southern sound over the islands further north!
me TO! me!!!! *hopes to be picked*
tomorrow the bar has carved beasts. tnoght it's seafood
*pours an entire fifth of virtual bourbon into her work coffee cup*
"octose" 8x sweeter than sugar... half the calories?
dinner, dinner... sigh. i had brilliant plan to eat one meal mid-afternoon instead of lunch and dinner since i wouldn't be going home from 8 am to after 8 pm... the meal wasn't big enough.
carved beasts sounds good...
LOL but the atmosphere, je...
jmc??? *offers cookies to go with coffee*
anywhere has atmosphere with enough bourbon
ty stiddie
true that
gee whiz, hurshy - why are you gone from home so long?
so je when are you cmong to dinner with me?
are you still in annapolis?
work, then not long enough to be worth going home, then my little citizen's police class, where i learn all about what the polices do
Does anyone have a list of all the 8s plz?
okay, 25 to go here, and I need to git a move on... list time!
hm. sounds like a full day, for sure!
i am sure you do NOT learn all of what the polices do!
"all about" being a figure of speech.
i need 155. i am going. really. honest. yep. yes sir. i am no slave to this game
lol hursh
yes. NBT and only 267 to go! WHYYYYYY didn't I look at the word count before I began?
go TO go!
hursh, we are missing another os8, which it looks like is a plural
I would like to NEVER learn all of what the polices do.... or even a lot of it! I would like to confine my knowledge to the once-a-decade traffic citation...
last os8?
clue pls? i ahev no 8's . then i can go. really.
wait, which one do you have? i've got a bone tumor one
stid, it's not a bad grid though, even though lots of words
second os8 is ancient Greek ballot
I know nrk, but this is also MY 8 hours away from home day... *sigh* by the time I get home all I can do is collapse on the sofa.
has a bony root, but ends with a scam
VI!!!! ****hugs****
BALLOT? i don't think we got to that in my greek... ah, thanks
a ballot with a bony end?
Why, hello, stidmama! (hugs back!)
hi vi
how's life on your end of the continent, Vi?
hi vic
Ummm... I did say hello to each of you as you arrived! lol
thank you vicuna
Dandy, stidmama, just dandy!
not me vic :-P
hmm the shceme is a 5 letter word, is it not?
wonderful to hear -- wish I could go to the show that weekend... !
OMG
thanks
scheme is a 3 letter word... *** artist
Yuh huh, jmc! Did too. 4:07.
oh ty
At some point I'll have a favor to ask of your son if he's willing. First of my books is supposed to come out on amazon distribution and I'd love to have anyone who's read it (and feels charitably inclined!) to post a review.
mea culpa vic
geez, I always miss the artist's stand!
=D
YES!!! He would LOVE to do that, Vi -- WHEN??? *big news*
thanks for the artist word nrk
got the list now. am encouraged to find that i only missed one CA. at least i'm good in one area.
Well, "6 to 8 weeks" from a few weeks ago, so I don't really know. I'll let you know when it appears.
14 left
I want to get the rest of your books for him for St. Nicholas Day... should I wait until the Amazon roll out?
I appreciate it.
oo stiddies' son --- I was trying to understand why my 24 year old son would be asked to read it! lol
okay -- please do. use the gmail address, I read it automatically on my cell phone.
go nrkii go
geez, i have missed four words between the co8's!!!
No. Only the first book is coming out on amazon, and it's an insanely expensive hardcover version. (Insert long, annoying publishing business story here.) So you'll have to just go through lulu again. Thanks!
Oh, sorry for cross-conversing, jmc! lol
okay, I will go to lulu as soon as I have money in the bank again! *starving grad student look*
lulu?
np it was me vic i am easily confused
Gosh, stidmama! I'd feel terrible if I caused anyone to miss precious, wonderful food!
i had a great aunt lulu
although, perhaps jmc's son would enjoy the book too? It's a fantasy novel.
down to 50 - must take a break... going nutty
he is not into fantasy stiddie but -- yes that was possible
how can you tell kje?
*rapidly puts on flak jacket*
oooooh. *admiring jmc's style*
LOL see you later kje! and I am going to go read email and post something to the class website.
*dons the ubiquitous foil hat*
see ya kje
so I will probably not see you-all again until tomorrow sometime. *stern mama look* play nice, people! (((hugs))) *Poof*
see ya stid!
bye stiddie
Bye, stidmama!
oops, bye kje, too!
*looks around and wonders how many of the rest of us are on the verge of nuttiness*
kje isn't throwing anything at me so I think she is gone
verg!?!?!?!
... or well over into the middle of the lawn of nuttiness, picking the daisies and eating them...
that's where I am!!!!! *laughs hysterically and eats another daisy*
Mmmmm, daisies. Yum.
fireworks!
whoo ho nrkii!
congrats, nrkii
Yay for nrkii!
I am sure they are full of vitamin D

Hello to all,
hi ga
15 left, all C - and these are painfull with a capital CRAP
I am a friend of gapeach and would really like to be a part or your game, does anyone know how to go about it. thank you all so much, I have been doing the puzzle with gapeach for sometime now. any help would be greatly appreciated.
gapeach's friend...log out of her account, then log back in with a name you pick for yourself. if you want to go pro, there should be a link somewhere.
when you first sign up for free, you get all the tile stats and word stats. after a 2 week trial period, those go away. if you want them back, you pay about $15 for one time fee and you get all the stats back forever, and a nifty icon and flag of your choice.
gotta go read bedtime stories. bbl.

i only have 30 words here, 345 left!
you can do it Jen!
hi DR1965.. late start here, but worth it.. had a lovely trip to the Botanical Gardens today, "visited" Madagascar and Costa Rica (under glass)
what is St. Aloyisius the patron hor? Yesterday we had tow bablers switch to churches by that name
I have had an emptional day- my neighbor of 14 yrs moved today
really don't know, sorry inge.. someone told me a German warrior one time
She was like a sister.. but is only moving about 20 miles away
still neither one of us talkedto each other today--- then she called and we were both crying
aww, sorry DR.. now you can arrange special visits and go on outings and have fun like I did with my friend today
our hubbys both think we are nuts
yes Aloy- exactly!
they just don't understand..
that is very true
sorry, Aloy. I am not close to any neighbor. Only five houses, two unoccupied (vacations) and the lots are very large
same here, inge.. my closest friends live miles away
so we email a lot.. and then plan "girly" days.. (-:
hi all
brb- help with homework
hi jmc
In the summer we see no other houses. With the leaves falling visibility imporves
hi jmc
hey wht!
saint aloyisius was principally n4d for his chastity and seems only to be the patron saint of boys schools.
interesting, ty jmc
he was so pure he never looked at his mothers face or the queens face and took a vow of celibacy at 9
interesting. Tomorrows icon theme is fall colors. I wonder whether I can find tht photo of years ago.
was his name spelled Aloysius, without the extra i?
I think he went a bit too far, sounds not normal to me, lol..
yes with out the extra i ---- maybe there is another one with the i
does seem to be a bit obsessive
no only one i so i think you are safe from having him haunt you aloy
no, maybe not.. I inserted the extra i to change the name, so less chance of duplication online.. lol, good news jmc, I'll sleep well tonight
lol a hard act to follow!
There is a Aloyisius school in New Zealand, all the saint info is without the i
so you think they misspelled it in NZ?
no, I think they did it intetntionally, in order not to be thought of as Roman Catholic
wowzer.. I never googled the name.. is that how you found out, inge?
hmmm maybe so
.. and I wonder if it is a boys school?
help with the t next to the h for nbt
i am thinking i will not make much more of this grid
to4 babblet, jmc
the one with three vowels
I know, jmc.. I just slogged through the c's, took forever

herin, that is particularly aggravating with a big grid!
so, jmc.. some progress for all that work, I hope?
Hi Dan sorry about Kitty Kitty
some progress for sure but it was hard won
the highlight of the day was an email from one of my sisters
she wrote: Your voice at the end of our conversation had that sort of "I am going to step back calmly and rationally and punch somebody's lights out" tone to it. Always liked that tone.
made me quietly proud
ooh, jmc.. an effective strategy, good for you!
Yep that sounds like me
what's up with Kitty Kitty?
I love a tshirt that says ''Ill try being nicer when you try being smarter''
I fear bad news.. so I'll extend condolences and wait to hear..
my voice always gets really calm when I am about to loose a whole lot of hurt on someone
Yes Dan you there?
the cobra before it strikes..
Dans Kitty kitty passed away
aww, so sorry to hear that
ooh so sorry to hear that dan

across the finger too

HI Marc
hi Marc, sorry I missed your entrance
hi marc
I have 41 to go -- working on S words
go jill go
goo Jill
hi marc -- hope you saw my clue below
goo? LOL!
yes but it still took a minute to get it
how about go go go
thanks
that's better ;)
yw
Did you know that women stay at home and men go and work!!! Excuse me
i was not aware of that herin *confused look*
really? i have to change some things here then
Apparently
in that case, jm ... we get to sleep in tomorrow!
does that mean my son needs to support me?
Yer. Well I think its bull crap.
(yes it does)
cooool
so how many times have you typed in esses
stacatto .. that's what i keep trying
wow, have times changed.. when we applied for a mortgage, the bank officer ignored me, only spoke to hubby till I piped up, "I work too".. "no offense mrs., but YOU DON'T COUNT" ! I'll never ever forget that
stacatto
nooooo, staccato
lol ... i'm such a dope :)
lol aloy i had a few try that along the way with me until I whip out the statutes and had alittle chat with their bosses
Wow Aloy.
well, jmc.. this was in 1970
think we've all been on that road ... pity the salesMAN who tries that with me. my husband blanches and says, 'bud, you're in trouble now'
the law in 1974 was that they could not do that
but then you get the dumb bints I go to school with that perpetuates the myth that blondes are dumb
I don't know about 1970
my favorite was that when my husband died these women asked me if i was going to keep the law practice like I was only practicing law to keep him company
things were definitely different then, I even got static for wanting to keep my first name on my credit cards.. believe it or not.. "people will think you are divorced".. well, duh.. I don't care what they think, my husbands first name is NOT my first name!
one of the women ministers at our church was asked "is it still called a sermon when a woman gives it?" uhhh...yeah. and Hi, by the way!
hi trif lol
lol, hi Trifioso..
hi trif .. and yah, mon!
i AM awesome I just had an idea of awesome
do tell herin
Ok you know that some mobile phones (cells) have micro sd cards?
waiting to hear the awsome one's idea..
if i knew what a micro sd card was i probably would know that
hi trif
Ok you know that camaras have SD cards?
Triffiessssss
am with you so far, herin
okay I caught up
back in the 50s in Quebec (ruled then by the church) if a child needed surgery and the father was away, the mother could not sign permission.
Ok well you can copy music onto them. Instead of buying and spending a lot on a new ipod I will buy one of them and put it in my phone
huh let us know if that works
ooh, wonder if it would be compatible
it does work
It should work
well there you go now
thats what my daughters do
well, I'm diving into the grid -- back later. Nobody seems interested in my comment.
and hello again everyone
hi jilli... that is so ridiculous it is sad, sad, sad.. but thanks for sharing
thanks, aloy -- thank goodness it's changed now, but it took a long time
our son would have died because his dad was often away on trips
hi jacq
in the uk in the 70's a woman couldn;t have a sterilisation or a hysterectomy without her husbands cinsent
what happened to children with only a mother?
aloy, that's probably what happened more than a few times then.
.. can't bear to think of it, jilli.. :-(
I would have forged the dad's signature.. time for civil disobedience
jmc, probably a male relative would do. There were large families in RC Quebec. Had a friend who was one of 21 children.
me too
or I would have borrowed a man for a surrogate father
I don't have time to find the last 64 words
we're not all that far from the burqa
awww, herin!
:-(
how much time do you have left, herin?
LIcketys time I think
use morewords -- oh, I guess you do.
do whatcha gotta do.. and we can help you do it!
I am using licketys and more words. I have about 40 min
you can do it.. !
go herin go!
Hi kids. Aly, my new church, in village where I work = St Aloysius!
I think so. Most of teh irritating letters have been found
hi scrabs
hi scrabs :)
yay! Hi Scrabs, good to see you (-:
HI Scrabler
hi all!
we were talking about st aloysius earlier
and hi to TO too!
hi TO
Hi herin, Aloy, JM, Jilli and owl!
a very chaste saint, it seems, Scrabs
very very chaste
I should hope so if he reached sainthood.
I need a fish for some of these words I have missed. I TO
wouldn't even LOOK into the face of a woman
including his MOTHER!
Or is there an underlying message there?
keep going, herin.. back to work with you!
I have co9, what is the other 9?
LOl i was chatting with a workmate today who told ne in high school they got chastised for LOOKINg at girls at lunchtime
mo9, scrabs
i never heard of such nonsense in my catholic shcool
Things were strict in the "old days."
i always liked the story of no patent leather shoes for the girls
I guessed at mo8 + 9--silly words
My mother used to get in trouble for looking at her friend
i have mo8 but the 9 alludes me
he's a bit younger than me. o course, the only man we could look at was peewee the janitor or ather mc devitt
give it a pl , jmc
FATHER mc devitt
the 9's a plural
in fact, lol... add s to just about everything!
all clues for 8/9s are appreciated
o i c I am looking at the wrong 8
TO I could not imagine you being naughty
i was not naughty. i was such a goody goody
as long as the janitor wasn't peewee herman *giggle*
think of the big pole, the ma4 on a ship TO.. then think of a ship that is missing that pole for the ma8
Ok here is a giggle. I never got one detention in high school
Me too, Owl--and that pissed off my younger sibs.
yay, herin!
no. BUT i could show you the high school yearbook photo of the cafeteria ladies. the head lady was james gandolfini's mother
back to work, herin.. the clock is ticking! (cracks the Babble whip)
lol.. but the chat is so much fun
pfft I ahve 50 left
Bada-bing, bada boom
go herin go
190 to go here, just trying to get to halfway then I shall enter the REM zone
scrabbler, our parents paid so much $ to turn us into"dignified young ladies"
are there any more words that are "not more"
snort. My mum often says I didn't raise yuo like that
busy day, Scrabs? How is this flu problem affecting your work? Duh.. I can guess that you are swamped..
ac 7, please?
I did not go to Catholic schools but I went to religion classes at the catholic school. I am also the first born, so more serious, perfectionist, etc
female on stage and in the movies, cybernan
merryl streep cyber
not to mention perfect scrabs
ty jmc -- couldn't see that!
Aloy, it has been insane for 3 wks, and even worse over the last week--phone calls, sick kids, anxiety. The local schools are full of H1N1 disease.
me either cyber!
i am a first born, too. like that, also.
i am the youngest :-P
Not perfect, but goody twoshoes, nerv wanted to screw up or disappoint my parents
aww, sorry, Scrabs.. the local news affirms what you are saying, close to a panic amongst parents, trying to protect their kids, so whenever they run a fever.. off to the doc's, because they can't get the vaccination yet
*never
anyone who wonders what phillyis like should watch "parking wars" on A & E
poor scrabs
It was front page article in Sunday's paper--schools are seeing 25-30% absenteesim.
well people tell you to keep your kid home if they are sick
I have been placing high-risk kids on Tamiflu and telling other parents about "supportive care"--hydration, rest, analgesia
ether ester ether ester ether ester
now maybe i got that out of my system
scrabs, here in MD they are particularly hard hit. a nineteen yr old just died of it last week
was at the doc's the other day (follow up for ear infection) and a mom came in with her feverish daughter.. first thing the receptionist did was hand a face mask to the kid to put on
Current rule is that kids may return when fever-free for 24 hrs but studies are showing secretion of H1N1 virus up to 12 days after onset of illness and long after fever is gone
*will try ester + ether*
ester ether
okay got 1/2 way and am tired so cu all tomorrow
lol scrabs
Not in grid, JM, sorry
was very interested to learn that a droplet is the vector, so now I understand the efficacy of respiratory masks
Good night, JM
i am taking my bourbon to bed
gee no wonder it is spreading so rapidly if they are contagious like that
gn, jmc.. have a good sleep
am 6 please?
tell that to my monkeys they kept typing it
*poof*
good ngiht, je
am + the prefix for "one" as in ****nucleosis
My aunt died yesterday, my mother's sister, age 89, just 5 mo after husband died. Wake is on Thurs, funeral Fri.
375! i just started, will never finish tonight!
ty. i am so delirious i did not realize i already had it
:( Hugs Scrabbler
ooh, my sincere condolences, Scrabbs!
use the list now, Shirlock, and work fast & furious
so sorry, scrabbler
sorry, scrabbler
I loved this aunt--funny, great Italian cook --she learned everything from her mother + aunts that came over from Italy.
was she ill?
oh scrabs, you've been having a really hard time, and those losses too!
My cousin found her dead in home, so we hope it was a sudden, painless, peaceful death.
I hope she shared some of her recipes with you and others.. we remember so many departed loved ones when we fix "their" dishes
Not ill--cooked on Sunday, made a pie. She was in "good" shape for 89.
perhaps an aneurysm?
sounds as if she made her exit the way we'd all like to, scrabs.
amen to that, jilli
Yep, Jilli, father of a patient (11 yr old boy) died last week, my nephew's 18 yr old friend hung himself last wk, uncle died in May, and I am still dealing with Mary's death from 12 mo ago..
omg, scrabs! So much! And your new job on top of it all . . . you are one staunch person.
my condolences, Scrabs.
hi lbdawger
My faith in God keeps me strong....and belief that someday, after we pass on, that we will understand tragedies, sorrow, etc
Hi dawger
any help for the last two cr 6-7 combos?
hi aloy, hi scrabs, hi everyone. i'm still in class, 8 minutes before i send everyone home.
ooh -- found the designing one
I have been sad since Mary's diagnosis 2 yrs ago, worse since her death, but I am able to enjoy life and appreciate life more
I believe that, Scrabs.. now is not the time
Are you teaching & typing, dawger?
and the folding one
nan, when you make something, you cr6 it.. pl for the cr7
forgive me for being profane, but jesus CHRIST - you cannot believe the fight I just had to break up between tertiare and secondo. Sigh. honestly, sometimes I could sell tickets!
TY for clues, Nan, and I found similar words too, to launch me past halfway
Oh, no, Trif!
deep breaths, Trif..
wish secondo would just get her period already.
yes, and running back and forth between students
missing the cr 7/32 between designs and the water plant
uh oh trif!
Hi DR
Oh dear Trifs moody teens is not fun
hormones running rampant ?
smack their heads together
*retreating from the unfamiliar field!* (never had a daughter)
Hi Scrabs- I am sorry to hear of your loss.
see you all from the home front.
honestly, they way they go at it! slapping each other silly, and shrieking until only dogs can hear it
cya Dawger
ttfn lbd :)
Adolescents are just older, bigger toddlers---emotional, impulsive, egocentric beasts
(am I a good texter or what?)
well, I remember ages 13-18 with my daughter.. phew! Now we are really close, but then.. aaaaaaaah
el 8?!!!!! -- oh I hope it is a co6 one
TY, DR
beasts. the perfect word! beasts!
Bye Dawger

Impressive, Jill
el8 starts off with the stretchy stuff, ends with the enzyme ending
LOL, scrabs!
ty Aloy
could I please have a clue for the ac7?
anyone have a clue for the third cr 7?
The best description I ever read of toddlers = uncivilized, unsocialized beasts. And adolescent girls are the ultimate worst--emotional tornados + hurricanes, sucking their mothers right in
the female on stage and in the movies, Trif
scrabs, are you planning on coming to nj over the christmas holidays? and can someone pls clue cr6/21 #2?

scrabs, my dad was visiting when my little son was playing (and squabbling) with a friend. "Oh, they ARE little savages!" he said in his very Brit accent.
Mean, nasty bullies--ostracizing others

Stuck on the 2nd mo7?
add 2 ltr pl to mo5 before
the hostest with the mo7
does your mcc think he's a dog?
Thanks got them
no, clearly a feline of the highest variety, what's a dog, he asks?
i'm not a cat fan, but mcc's are exceptional. my neighbor has one and he thinks he's a dog. he is quite demanding and expects attention when he commands it! but he also does tricks and stuff.
not even sure what an mcc is...but sounds interesting (and I'm not a cat person either)
maine coon cat, truly amazing cats
and they are HUGE!!
this one is actually just a mongrel, but he sure looks and acts the part
s words done, there's hope
Hello, all! My parents have a semi-huge cat, Hooper, must weigh about 20 pounds. I suspect he's got a MCC in his ancestry.
go harp!
hi jbs
hi jbs!
Oh, and due to a grumbly tumbly, I'm still up, and Babbling, and I got FIREWORKS!!! Whoo hoo!
whooooo hooooo JBS!!!

TY, TY, especially for all the clues in the chog!
Anyone need clues?

Hi, lbd, hey, Pini!
How many do you have left, Shirl?
74
Okay, that's a start! <grin> Do you have all the 7's 8's 9's?
170 now...
I still have plenty-o-time to avoid losing my mind, right?
os7 the first one, please
I have lost my mind already
I'm sure I'm not too far behind, marc!
first part of bone + not pa
os7 / 8 It's a type of tumor
thx for those!
I have no brain for clue giving tonight - mo' better ones from lbd!

hey, at this point, I'll take anything! 164 more to go!
<blush> aw, shucks, lbd...

well g'day
hi granny
go Pini!, hi grannyrose
Hi, granny!
pini, are you listing yet?
pini, how are you? and hey to ibd, and i don't think i have met you jbs, so welcome
not too bad...wading in words at the moment...yourself?
Thanks got the os's 7's and 8's
done and dusted here. ankle wise, doing much better
lol, I meant, are you using the list yet, pini? not that you're leaning to one side or the other...
oh...yes, using the list...
lol, jbs
glad to hear, granny
Granny, I used to chat a lot with the Aussies in my early morning hours on Babble, not so much chatty these days
so this is ore your usual time hen, jbs?
* groan * hate this keyboard....or maybe i need to cut my nails....* more * * then *
Sorry but I need sh6, please?
pini, do you have the mo's? There are several series - castle traffic stoppers, solitary snobs, card games, hosts with the mo-, hostest with the mo-, tree grass on north side, and "not hotels"
hold on ... let me check
sounds like a roof over your head or a bus stop
Marc, what a Bostonian would call a lean to, phonetically sorta
like the mini collie dog, but instead of the sometimes vowel use the first one
From SF don't know Bostonian's things
granny, I'm only up right now (lacks 20 min to midnite) because my stomach did NOT like dinner at 9:30pm, and has much growling!
almost all of the mo's...just missing the mo5/12, mo6/21, mo4/5 series near the end (after visitor's residence)
mo + the *** offensive, vietnam conflict
pini, variations of french word for word
Try thinking an apple sauce brand with a silent vowel on the end
bingo...mo's done! :)
NICE, lbd!
oh, shoot...didn't see the 2 mo's near the top (cuz the tile didn't go grey) - darn it...the first mo4/5 and the first mo4/6
got the mo4/5
mo+ ** the world turns
Mothers! pini
oy vey...got the mo4/6
* hanging head in shame *
and the thing that surrounds the castle, filled with monsters ;-)
marc, think bomb sh*****, instead of er ending apply first vowel
lbd - that's what I called a castle traffic stopper...:)
oooh, thx for those sh's
and the M's is GREY!!!
gooo pini
No shame, pini, it's all fun!! go go go! How many left?
135
in your own immortal words, GIT R DUN!!
ROFL
