hi there kangabrat
I remember, nan. Years ago (1936) I stayed in an inn like that in Stratford-on-Avon, with an old feather bed in the room. In 1968 hubby and I went to the same place, but it had a hidden extension behind it with boring motel-typw rooms.
WELSH WRONG BOX :D
hi welsh
hi dc, welsh, kanga
evening, jilli
is the wa 8 a plural?
hi there jilli.

i would never call you slow, jilli!
well, you beat me to the U and K words, lol!
just cos i'm not focused on the grid : )
the grid is getting out of focus -- not seeing words and I only have 135
with you there.

well done dc
well, I give up -- time for bed. Have to get an early (for me) start tomorrow.
good job, dc!
I'm about ready too jilli, just not seeing anymore
be back in the morning for a bit, but have errands to run and a bridge game at 1:
I hope there'll be a list tomorrow :)
goodnight all
that would be very much appreciated jilli - (hope you're listening Lickety)
My bridge game is at 12:30, for dessert. I never have dessert at lunchtime.
hmmm, guess they want to get it out of the way and concentrate on the game?
I don't know. I find there's entirely too much cookery in AH.
I make one dessert to serve with tea or coffee of their choice
I have to do a dessert for those people who want dinner. Not a happy camper about all this.
I don't serve lunch
I should bldy well hope not!

Hi to everyone. The o's are oa 4, oc 4, oi 5, 6, 6, ok 4, om 4, 5
oops, sorry, double post
that's unfortunate jilli, If they want an evening game, so be it, but no supper!!
Hi ... can't believe there is not a single letter blacked out....

Our Saturday bridge is strictly no cooking, just bought cookies or cake, although some have made stuff.

I have one U

I only have 2 u words uk4/9 and ul4/5

Well, have a good game, flosey -- mine will be interesting, playing against my usual partner.

My U is un6/33

Hi Aloy!

clue for gr8 please?
comparative of wheat oats rye rice
clue @7.04 Une
i have the ge -- isn't there a gr?
hi BabRab
tx br, got it!!
Hi BR!
Hello, folks
where are folks finding clues today?
Did you watch the game last night, Annie?
in the chat Grant
Yes, BR. Matsui was in great form as usual.
Guten Morgen, Babblers. Is there a list in someone's profile?
Did you watch the game BR? I must confess I fell asleep when the Yankees were up 7-3.
I don't think so Inge
not sure how that works
I do not have a television but kept up with the score.
Grant? you know you can get to the chat clicking on the icon just above top right?
BR, If you have a radio that is also good for keeping score. Sometimes listening to a game is even better.
I d just did that
The clues are diffuse to say the least, but I guess that's the way it is today? (pout,pout)
Its just a matter of scrolling through then, lots of lists for individual letters. And don't pout, the wind will change and you will always look like that (or so my Mum said)
lol
FYI tons of lists between 3:00 and 5:00am in chat archive
Thanks Une
How many el words are there please. I have a 4,5,4. Is there another?
i have el 5 4 4
el5.10 at start
hello - first ever babble game and trying to figure out what your clue system means
ty
el5.16 too Une
what is el5.10 for example?
ah, just found the el5/16 -- thanks, lynxxx
el 5 is a girl's name
5 letter word starting with el. Total points 10 = being double the tile scores. Read the Help above Pinny and welcome
pinny, word starts with el, is 5 letters long, and is a total of 10 points

I have this big gap of fi 5,5,6,7,7, that I cannot find.
Any help appreciated.
i've got fi 4 4 5 5 6 7 4 5
when i go to Ft Campbell I felt less foolish for thinking it was in Kent. -- It's main gate and post office are in Kentucky
but most of it was in TN
merk, do you have fi7/40?
jmc LOL!!
so was the trip OK?
I have the first one, not the one farther down or the fi 7, 40 following it.
llloooooonnnngggg but I think it was worth it
so you have the plural of "the end of the performance" right?
good to hear, jmc
fi7/40 is plural
when I finished up early and found i no longer had to rush back to DC i was kinda sorry i didn't try to find some way to find you for coffee
who's zooz?
everybody in the hearing looked like there were 10 years old
young soldiers, you mean?
zoozoom anike
even most of the offices
Now I have the fi 6, 27 and its pl. I need the fi 7,44 after it.
i wasn't sure any of them could shave
fi7/44 ends with what you try to cut down when trying to lose weight
but I enjoyed the drive (I will not do well in a post-personal automobile world) and listened to Jimmie Carter and a murder/crime novel
same here, merk :-(
There is also an fi 6/27 between the 2 5's
food? tins?
you're like me, jmc -- on long drives I listen to books and have a movie version running in my head :-)
i came back refresh quite honestly
I'm thinking it's either slang or I'm blind.
How do I get to zoozoom?
Yes, and I think I am missing that fi 6, 27 as well.
re6/36?
go to rankings or I notice zooz is still online
then click on the icon
click on his icon anike
OK I found him
when i am looking up the icon them i use the rankings and find sprite
I am still missing the far left i
Dtins ... there's lots you can cut down when you try to lose weight.

ty, I got the fi 7,44. Now I need the fi 5,6,5 that comes after what the secretary in the office does with finished paperwork.

I need a little more help with the es5 pls
jm c, if you want an answer to that question why dont you just es5 her?
es + a ***nal of corn
es + people who make bread are ba***s
ty BR
jmc - if es5 began with an 'a', it would be someone who questions.
should be ***nel
Zoos lists 15 fi words. As far as I can see, I have the first six words, ending with office work. Then I have a 5,6,5 unaccounted for. Then taking an exam at the end of the term, the grand fi*, etc.
ty all nbt and I am off to save the world! bbl
I must go and do some mending and some ironing etc. Happy Babbling all.xx
jac, someone said zoom's clues had errors -- is your list the same as his or a corrected version?

Merk, I listed the fi words
My list is my own, Une.

hello everybody
nice big grid tonight, fun again
hey jac
heya wolvie
heya hurshy and jae
i hate the 5th of november
errr - why for?
why, jac?
you wish guy fawkes had blown up parliament?
ohh you don't do bonfire night lol i forgot
ah. guy fawkes. was wondering
maybe hurshy, maybe, if politicians had been brought to boot sooner LOL
i wish we had a bonfire nite , lol
politicians are h-o-p-e-l-e-s-s
we have every idiot and his dog letting off air bombs and screamers
amen to that
i think all politicians should be made to serve on the front line, right after their basic training, as ordinary soldiers, no special ranks for them, they won;t be so warlike
jacq...what is bonfire night all about?
most pols aren't soldiers at all, they don't have basic training.
i know, they aren't even properly potty trained.;-)
guy fawkes and his fellow conspirators planned to blow up the houses of parliament and kill king charles i think it was, anyway they were caught and burnt at the stake (among other horrors) and we celebrate it
Howdy folks.
hi Takuma

Jacula -- does hydra play babble ??
Jae - do you have ke5.20 & 6?
Hydra plays babble, yep
ke 5/20 and 6/33; ki 5/20 and 6/33
so i read earlier that there are two G8's. i found one, and so would like to know whether they are related to each other, or not
She's going through a bad time. Give her my best wishes, if you speak to her.
ge 8 and gr 8
not related Hursh

afternoon EvaN
more hard work dress shopping?
that so does not describe me! i'm reasonably thin but i'm TALL
no, just hard work at....*shudders* work.
exactly! think of twiggy
plus i was really skinny when we met, i've yo-yoed back up since then
hi Eva
on the plus-side, my car is ready today! i get my baby back!
hiya lynxxx
you have to look STARVED and pathetic to be wa8. like you have consumption or something.
well, i got the ke5/20 and 6/33, and the ki of same sort, but i STILL have two more k words, blech
If I lost 6 stone I might look wa8 lol
lol no you don't! it was a key fashion look in the 60s (?), very tall, thin, twiggy-esque
me too!
well as i said i was skinny when you met me, i'm at least a stone heavier now.
I am missing a r5. Can anyone help?- it's the r from the center bottom.
less cooked?
ok, you we4 wa8. you're a little less wa8 now :P
or perhaps rhymes with the food that crossy so often cooks
re5.14 perhaps - re construct
I do not know what crossy cooks...
you soon will :)
OMG!!! I finished!!!!
Hooray for Jae!
yay!!
congrats, jaeleigh
Thank you all for helping me with your clues!
wtg jae
Now can I help anyone???
unnskyld.
you feel unskilled?
For what?
*sigh* off shopping at 8pm
Did you burp?
Babble, is this a test?
I was gone ... no
unnskyld means "excuse me" in Norwegian.
and that is about allo the Norwegian I know LOL!
ahhh. i guess i've seen too much of my sister's dog's "writing"...
well, then, unnskyld.
hi all. holy big grid, batman!

*pounds* even
and I don't have the two ca6's before the ca7
ok, so that means i need a wa6/30 and three we's!
there's two!
ca's- one is ca**** appetites; the other is a person at a fair who works there- a type of "roadie"
sorry, i'm of no use to you yet
thanks jae
yay, i needed that fair worker
really? I thought about that but didn't think it'd be a real word so i didn't try it!
thanks
You are welcome
65 left, another break, bbs
bye, peri
how come it won't take selkie?
*pout*
I know. Not fair
can't... find...
what does babble have against the seal-folk? mean
and what one does with a dog everyday. cruel
what cruel things are you doing to your dog???
nothing, hursh, but babble thinks "walkies" isn't a word!
shocking.
outrageous
i know, i just joke.
i can't find my last we
you can drop the k from that nonword
Hursh - you have the we6.42?
i have not.
Good evening everyone.
we6 we & wa** a mile ** my shoes
hi Elder
hmm, i thought i had tried that. well, thanks!!!
is the we6/24 .. surname ...name of a whisky.
W's are Walloped!
are there any ci words?
well I want cineraria ...
what a lovely grid .. too late for me though, to finish.
Hello, folks!
you would.
I tried cineraria, too.
And it wouldn't take selkie. =(
see! not just me :)
you guys are all of one mind today
No ci's. I just opened the list.
any co- as a prefix?
i don't see how cofi4 isn't a word, married people submit to the IRS together all the time.
No. Most of the co's are related to lignite.
hi e1
so when you say "most" do you mean "more than 4" ?
Nope. I mean 4/6.
ok, then i need 4 more CA!
go go smurshy!
short form of western state, odd, but ok, that leaves 2
the list giveth and taketh away. I was down to 9, now it says24. A good reason to quit, and regret having started this grid. Auf Wiedersehn
Tschuss, inge.
Starin, in disbelief, at the SK5/20, wondering how I ever got it and why
Heyas kids ..
*Staring*
Hello, tor.
*staring at the grid wondering if I will see a sk5/20, too*
afternoon all...
Hello, Pinikula.
looks like I should also be looking for an sk5/20?
well...didn't find that, but found an sk6/42 ;)
I'm looking, I don't see it along with a lot of other words I don't see.
There was some complaining earlier about Eskimo not being OK in this place, That is a part of it...
sk5 don't live in ice houses
I think I'm in the same crowd as you, carol ;)
Hmm, I thought my monkeys had tried that. But apparently not. Thanks, lynxxx and Erda.
this may be the most annoying day at work ever.
wow...actually got that!!!
thx peeps!
unless there's more than 1 sk5/20?
Wow, that's a high bar, hursh. =(
I think mine was yesterday, hursh
You're welcome, Vicuna

I think I am quitting. I don't feel li** going to the list.
quitting? that's not a word we use here!!!

She's not quitting - she's beating a strategic retreat!
My brain can only stand so much strain

es5.18
es5 - glacial remain, like Herr Schindler with a different initial

Actually, I guess both vowels different, now I think of it.

ge8 is like the flower but with Mr Gore on the end

hi and good night all, ic4 theme updated (well as far as possible) and I am off to bed. *hugs*
sorry, i mean the first fa7
night Sprite
thx for that I, sprite!!! 2 more for NBT now :)
gnite sprite

fa7 - similar to a breeze-making device
having the look of something to wave yourself coolness with...
*poof*
ah, that fa7 clue gave me the wa8, thanks!
aarrgghh! kept going the wrong way, didin't notice the upper a...thank you
* feeling a little slow here - not getting it yet *

Good evening all. Just a quick visit to say I am off on holidays tomorrow , for 2 weeks, to Lanzarote in the Canary Islands. Very unlikely that I will be babbling for next fortnight, so - take care all, I will miss the company!!
Are you sure?

Enjoy, Soodlebum! And don't forget sunscreen.

I was given what for by a what for giver
Thanks guys - I am anticipating a fraught fortnight. I am accompanying my elderly, wheelchair-bound, very high-maintenance parents.....
I can not and can not get SA 6/18. It's the second Sa 6/18, just before the doggie...Please help!!
SOme people seem to have an excess of what for.
lol well there you go BR I am sure the mussitating gets tiresome!
bye pini!
only sa6/18 I have is variant of boat crew
Not that one...
well hang in there soodle. If they can travel they are better than some and that is hard but a blessing
i've got a sa6/18 that's one letter (the last vowel) different from a salty solution.
i just received notice there has been a mass shooting at Ft. Hood with at least 7 dead
I have that one, too, brid...
ty brid
sa 6 -- woodcutters
ty BR
That's 6/30
i am still looking for the doggie
true
is the 6/33 the dog?
yes it is
well there you go I had it all the time!
Ooh, I love the way those look.
Sa + **natic + not pounds, but **los
just went to look at one -- very pretty
I do too, Vicuna
very very
I think brid's sa6/18 is the one you need, Erda. It's right before the dog, anyway.
sa + Krystle Carrington, ***d* Evans
Like what you put on contact lenses.
did you see i am on your team now ata? they finally recognized me
similar to saline solution? I have that.
Well that's the one before the dog.
You must need after the dog?
Think of the opposite of crazies?
BR -- is that Dynasty? Never watched it...
sa + tend to children: nan****
Got it!!! Thank you all -- it had to be something stupidly simple like that!
icky definition
we needed a medical person here for that one!
ty BR
hello again all - back for a few minutes until i have to get supper going. :-)
hello everyone :)
Hello, Wolvie and cybernan.
hi nan and vic
no lickety today?
There's a list in BabAnon.
not that i know of - earlier today zoo posted a list on his profile page. However, I had to restart my puter and lost it. so no list for me. :-)
oh. okay - i will probably have to break down and go there
oh crap - no list?
lol - hi TO
it's not that bad.
of course, i'm lying.
but still.
think happy thoughts.
rofl - hello brid
like reading those old adds along the highway
lol, hiya
A Babbler's need
To find these words
hi wolvie
have gr and wa 8 -- what is the other, please?
Makes all agreed
hi cyber
That we are nerds.
ga8
hi, all. we are watching the news here very closely re the shootings at Fort Hood. We live fairly close to the Fort Hood base.
that read like a burma shave sign vic
hi angel - hope all goes as well as it can
ty vic
hi jmc
i have been getting up dates by email angel
wait a minute -- how can there be a ga word?
Yep. Wolvie gave me the idea.
how can there be a ga 8 when the a is not near the g?
I'm in shock, as is my husband. He worked and lived at Fort Hood when he was in the Army
ga 8??
sorry. DId I say ga? I meant ge8.
XP
gr, wa and ?
;-0 glad i could be of some use
should be ge, not ga
ahh - ty.
oo I feel so much better mel and cyber I was confused by the ga
ge8, ge8, I meant ge8!
another road poem is in order
ty vic -- got it
Okay, let's see...
I said the 8
Began GE...
That's why they hate
Poor little me.
LOL very good
only you said ga - lolol
Actually, of course, I said ga. SO I can't even get my mistakes right any more! Aaargh!
be e IS easier to rhyme
ahahaha she got it wrong again, poor Vic
*sigh*
heh heh. rats. I must go and prepare food for family - hope to get back
no rest for the wicked vic. and i don't mean me. ;-)
help with the un6.33, i have the one that is not similar.
un6 - not cut, as in wood
I don't seem to know
All my vowels, though I try
A-I-U- E- O
and I ask myself Y.
Y knot
uncut wood isn't cutting it for me. sigh...i must be really dense today.
re+ to give a heads up should be a word IMO
especially when re + victory is accepted!
its not unhewn because you use a ax for that -- it is un6 because you use a toothy tool
exactly !
un + a mixed up supergoose lol
fish smack! thanks jmc, and vic!
I tried that one too Jm lol
a super goose?
the un's and the re's are always so arbitrary.
super goose?
*imagines goose with cape and mask*
spruce goose? lol
okay, it was a silly clue. Bigger than a goose and more aristocratic, if you like. Usually pure white...
unicorn!
But moot now anyway, as lbd got the word.
oh -- another clue for not cut
Well, perhaps, Ata, although I don't usually think of unicorns as birds...
oooo a trumpet sw**
thought it was a new word (for me)
you didn't say it had to be a bird
*hands ata some bourbon*
is that a moot supergoose or a mute supergoose?
just bigger than a goose :P
back after windows update hell
most geese are birds
Though today my son said he'd like to see a cat that looked like a rhinocerous, so if that could work, why not a goose with a horn.
hi TO
You are a goose, Ata. =P
many things are bigger than geese, some birds, some not ......
maybe a unicorn pegasus?
*imagining a rhinofiline*
I am bigger than a goose but i am not super :-(
Most geese are birds, jmc. But not all. As Ata, for example.
would you let it sit on your lap?
lol vic
oh please someone get me out of hotel hell...
anyone have the as 5 please?
poor TO
Want to come over Sat. night?
bleh someone give me a clue for one of the words for the upper left A please I am not seeing anything coming off that tile
He said it would have fur shaggy enough to look like those armorous folds of skin, so I THINK it would be safe to sit on a lap.
I don't think i would let anything with horns sit on my lap
a bus load of pre teen kids checking in
sounds too heavy to sit on my lap
*refrains from making obvious horny comment*
as5/10
horny is different
lol vic
VI!
ack TO!
are you going to phillie this weekend?
ooooh Vi. talking of horns ...
*looks expectantly at ata*
so how about a clue for the as 5/10?
Uh oh... Yes?

cyber memorize this: in 4/4 (in+ two vowels)
oh my je heard about shooting at fort hood?
yes a friend emailed me about it a while ago
boy am I struggling with that damn K, I suppose I am going to have to go find a list soon
oh -- is that what that one means? -- had it, lol
heard the three shooters we4 in uniform and one caught, one got away, and one is holed up
only have 7 k's here, but then I still need 83 words
yep cyber that is what it means lol!
bbc says the shooter is dead, 2 being held that might have something to do with it
in these circumstances the news is often contraditory
these folks are just strethed to the breaking point on a thankless thankless mission
you are way ahead of me Nan I have 2 LOL
my news is from earlier so the BBC is probably right
I was at Ft Campbell yesterday myself
wow long trip

how is the grid today?
hi stid
I am just learning about the shootings at Ft. Hood , Texas. I am devastated.
the grid is a bit challenging today. might help get your mind off the news for at least a bit.
that is what I was thinking. I have to finish writing a paper, and currently much too upset to begin.
well babble definitely uses a different part of the brain.
what is your paper about?
LOL true enough! and without lickety it takes more brainpower.
how are you today brookie?
doing well. life is finally settling down for me... a welcome change
settling down sounds nice. This week I seem to be over-reaching much of the time. Next week will be more so, the week after should calm down again.

i remember listening to the 78 and leaping around the house LOL
yes, i'm a geezer
me too hursh, but i think i'll be more entranced this time watching her. same here... my mom still talks about my leaping
:-D
i'm going up there tomorrow and bringing her the book, so she will be well-prepped by the time we see it
excellent!
ok, taking a break with 18 to go -- this thing is endless!
it is indeed une.. but i'm down to 6 so I can't leave now
is there a list anywhere?
jacula has one, thank goodness
phew
finally fireworks
help with the first ke5 and ke6 please and thanks
ke 5/20 = a rug, spelled strangely
ok not getting that clue dorens
ke + ***e, a citrus fruit
which she put in babanon as well as her stats.
do not know what is wrong with me but still cannot see it sorry
ata, it is technically my turn to start lexulous but i felt sort of bad doing so after the last game...
Got It DUH
lol go for it
wow only have 90 left
malefice was amazing!
i didn't even see how many points it was until i played it
did you faint?
i think a little!
I bet
Tell me about this big word play!
8 ltr bingo on two reds
Point total?
256 or something!
256?
*holding breath--these are always big, big plays!*
*GASP* Wow! Wow! Wow! What was the word?
malefice
see, ata had played owt
M, F + C added more points. Nice entry for your word game diary, Hurshy
hello 205 to go
and probably didn't realize what i discovered - there are a good number of -owt words
and i had a blank
270 to go for me, but I am just here to unwind and relax.
I know nowt
so i tried various things for my blank to see what i could fit around it
I knew you would, but my letters were horrid
So was it mowt, fowt or cowt?
Or lowt?
is there anothre clue list besides zoozoom? His seems to have sevreal errors
lowt I think
Hi Inge!
and when i was trying with L, i suddenly had a 'click' and thought if benefice and maleficent were words, malefice should be too
the babanon one seems to be accurage, inge
and it was!
inge, jacula has a complete clue list
Hi Scrabbler, I am a very disgusted babbler. Should have checked wether there was a clue list. I trsuted likcety to be dependable.
interestingly enough, though, while lexulous took lowt, enable does not recognize it as a word.
Once a friend played SHALIEST for a TW-TW-Bingo--150 pts to win the game in her last turn.
OK I am checking babanon, Wasnt thre earlier
can I totally change the subject for a moment and ask scrabs something suitably gory and medical?
ooh, please do!
Sure, Ata!
yay! well. sister is in hospital
there's a surprise
hi all
Oh, no, another awful wound?
Hi Boobear
nope - she's got to have a blood transfusion. Normally they do a cut down into her neck to get the line in
i didn't think she was allowed to come out of hospital
blood transfusions should be so easy ...
so. they took her to theatre and did a cut-down. 2 surgeons couldn't get a line into her neck. Nor then in her groin. They now don't know what to do to get the blood into her!
me7?
But she has veins! Why can't they find the vein?
good heavens!
her veins all pretty much all collapsed and dead
me7 - relating to skin pigment
in every extremity. sigh,.
But she has blood circulating into her extremities, right?
so what ARE they going to do with her next?
so now they are trying to decide which is more dangerous - to take her back into theatre and cut down to her chest, or leave her without a transfusion
Poor thing!
kind of ... she has gangrene in her toes and pretty much no circulation there. her hands are a bit better, but not much
how awful
has anyone seen Trif today?
Then she needs a CVL--central venous line--placed into her SVC (superior venous catheter). And she needs a super academic multidisciplinary evaluation!
yes ... she does. but of course they don't want to do it cos it's another wound to go horribly wrong!
but then so is not having enough blood. another one of her lose:lose situations
what happens if you eat blood? would some of it find its way into your veins?
nooooooo
unless you're a vampire andthen who knows
just trying to think outside the box...
it's a real shame that wouldn't work
You can absorb iron from blood--meat.
that's true
I guess that wasn't really a question, was it? More a "oh gosh, look what's happened NOW!"
but when people have collapsed veins or arteries don't they usually do an angioplasty balloon thing? why didn't they do that and THEN put the blood in when they had her in the surgery?
good question
like a funnel
I do not understand why the docs gave up--she has veins, they ARE there.
well she had her consultant, the head of A&E and the chief anaesthesiologist trying for 2 hours LOL Not entirely sure why the nice anaeth. guy was trying, but ...
they always have huge trouble getting lines into her
And if she has gangrene--she needs IV antibiotics, surgical debridement, etc
what's A&E when it's not busy being Arts & Entertainment?
accident and emergencies
your ER
ah
she does ... and it sorts it out kind of ... then it comes back ... repeat for years. I don't know the details there though.
I don't get it, Ata.
she's a medical freak
I've sat there often enough while consultants tell her these things. Otherwise I wouldn't get it either. I mean, I still don't really, but I've seen the doctors just not be able to *do* anything
She needs to see more specialists--she needs more testing.
she does, but there's no-one left for her to see in the UK
She needs Dr Gregory House!
she REALLY does
except i don't think the diagnostics are the problem
I'd love her to go over to the US and get different opinions, but she can't fly
The UK docs need to consult with global specialists--they need to do that!
i mean, i suppose it is possible there is some root condition that they could treat, but...
but - really - are there specialists in a variety of Crohn's that no-one's ever recorded before? That's their latest opinion anyway *facepalm*
can someone give me a clue for the ke words please?
ke + out on a ***b
what you fire pottery
Autoimmune issues, digestive problems, malnutrition, etc---her docs must not give up.
lthans tthanks hurshy
thx hurshy
weme
they aren't. they keep poking at her, and her 4 specialists and her GP had a big day long conference about her a few weeks ago!
Good! That is calming me down now.
i wonder... i mean, i'm at yale, and i know some docs - probably none of them would be the kind you need but maybe they know who is and maybe could ask the right docs to help - i mean, somebody's bound to be going to england for a conference or something
oooo
experts do travel globally to give talks
but, really, they are stuck. they can keep her alive, and vaguely well, but they can't improve her condition, and it's continually going downhill. But I don't honestly think she will get better, however brilliant the doctors are.
how long do they think she has if they don't figure something out?
behcet's disease?
i just had some English Huntsmen cheese and my upper lip swelled -- has this happened to anyone else?
they've looked into behcet's before and discarded it. I think it fits pretty well though
no, you know what she needs if it's a wound thing - she needs bacteriaphages. she needs to go to... where is it, romania?
or is it bacteriophages? phages, anyway.
Shirlock--just your upper lip?
yep, inside of my upper lip
that's a fairly impossible question. she could quite easily be dead tomorrow. she's been revived 3 times now. and been very near death more times than that. On the other hand, she could live for a good while if verything stays under control
scrabbler, where do they do the phages?
yes, that happens to me with strong cheese
Ata, when I was a resident we had a teen that ended up being diagnosed with Behcet disease. He died several yrs ago in his mid-20's
ick :(
very sharp cheese?
k, so not something i need to worry about (cheese) and i wouldn't have to throw out the rest of the yummy cheese?
Does it taste ok, Shirlock?
don't throw it out!
Hurshy, I don't know
cheese was pretty scrumptious
was looking for wensleydale (wallace + gromit) with lemon (very very scrumptious) but they didn't have it, so got this english huntsman
wensleydale is the *best*
it's eastern europe
whole foods sell these "end" bits of cheese, which is great as i get to try all these diff. flavors
they had this "stilton" with lemon, totally awesome
you can't get them in the west because they're organic and the way they work best is in individually tailored combinations and so you can't really get FDA approval for it. but it's so much better than drug antibiotics because they adapt and evolve along with the bacteria that they are eating, instead of the bacteria just developing resistance to a drug.
I love places that do that. I get meat ends from my farm shop. gorgeous bits of ham and yummy things
it's ironic that the very thing that makes them so awesome and have so much potential is the very thing that prevents them from being used here.
interesting atalante, didn't know that about wensleydale
some doc in texas brought some back from eastern europe to treat one of his patients who had a wound healing problem and had no other options
wow!

someone has a Dalek pyjama case. I want one. Or a TARDIS one
And at 114/198 I have am ready to go to bed. I am so tired! But I am on call and hope to not be paged!
'evening, folks
ge8?
hi/bye scrabbler ... *crosses fingers for a night of undisturbed sleep*
In Russia, mixed phage preparations may have a therapeutic efficacy of 50%. This equates to the complete cure of 50 of 100 patients with terminal antibiotic resistant infection. It also seems likely that this is due to individual choices in admixtures and ineffective diagnosis of the causative agent of infection.

Speed, I am by the water tower on the other side of Park Ave from Hillside.
indeed, jilli :D
Jill, It's da bomb
I know just where that is.....
I don't think I can be bothered with this grid any more. Just wish it would go away!
how far have you gotten, jilli?
Kaboom!
165/147 -- last night, dc. Didn't have time today -- all bridge, all the time.
:)
how did your bridge game go jilli
It was close, but we won in spite of a couple of dumb mistakes, forgetting it was rubber
awful shooting at Fort Hood, TX! And the shooter was a psychiatrist!
good for you, I still forget the rubber thing, have always scored dup. or Chicago
oopsie. easy mistake to make, esp if one is used to duplicate
too right, dc!
bid game unnecessarily and went down one -- would have completed a leg.
oh heck!
we just had very uninteresting hands all afternoon
Did that twice! One by me, one by partner.
good company though, flosey?
oh yes, April and Judy
had a lot of laughs
we did too
that's really what matters
brb
new bones is on, see you all tomorrow. good luck with the monster...grid

lucky you, flo!
ooo the Fort shooter guy is alive and in custody
I htought they said he died earlier
I thought they said he had killed himself, ata! I have the news on now . . .
guess I did not hear right
not killed himself -- was shot, I mean.
the army ppl have just announced that he's alive
any ideas on the ra5,18 that isn't more uncooked
I guess they were dampening rumours for a while
maybe he was shot but not killed
he was shot, yep
just changed to CNN and it's as ata said.
ac5?
lord, will this ever end?
i thought i heard the gunman was one of the dead
jen, that was the first (erroneous) report
i mean the grid, but it applies to the news also!
ra+opposite of lose
ac5 -- ac + not out + same vowel
I think the world has gone nuts
and these words are why I don't like this grid
"his death is not imminent"
you must be listening to the same report, ata
I just heard that too on CNN
was it OJ Simpson?
probably!
i hear you jillibus, i keep entering the same words over and over again
an army psychiatrist!
shot multiple times by a female police officer
thanks jill
oh...
she was thought to be dead, but she's alive too
it's not looking good for arab americans either, with a soldier like that going nuts!'
she didn't like her how her therapy was going?
not funny, ruru
oh.. better go.. this is a serious subject
do you know what this is about, ruru?
nope
a mass shooting at Fort Hood army base
12 dead, 31 wounded
ok bed time. see you all in a few hours!
oh .. awful
Sleep well, ata!
the gunmna is a psychiatrist, and he is still alive. My husband and I have a friend who was on post this afternoon, and has just been released from the lockdown. Thankfully, he is fine.
Phew, angel!
good news, angel

njoy, DR
hey DR - we had a long, long, difficult night. she really started blathering around 12:30, and by then I was really regretting not having another adult in the house, so I could have taken her in to the ER. but I remembered what my parents taught me, and kept up with the fluids, and rubbed her down with alcohol and warm compresses.....fever broke around 3 am, finally, she is managing much better today, but we are WHIPPED tired
ty Torg- now bbl
good to hear- I was worried for you
trif, glad you got through it, how trying
thanks all. pardon me for saying so, but it was majorly f'ing scary.
this grid is making me crazy, 62 left on 4 tiles
trif, so glad things are improving!!
thanks all!
(((((((((((((Trifs))))))))))))

Yes, I do!
I take advantage of the opportunity to bake because I love to do it and don't for ourselves
Thanks to my late mother-in-law
we just don't want it around, both love it
oh jilli, darn m-i-ls
sk5 of yarn
she made me feel like a worthless parasite
speechless jilli
and a child abuser
how awful, jilli
oh, wow
but that sounds very familiar
she had better plans for her elder son.
hubs was actually told he was unplanned and unwanted
oh boy!
wow, how much better could he get is all I can say
he is a wonderful man
and deserving of the great lady he married
yes, you hubby was, flosey, lol!
referring to your hubby of course jilli - think things are getting a bit mixed
<chuckle>
giggle
fi7,44?
Hi Lickety, if you're still around. Your clues are for 5th Nov grid not 6th, as stated.
sorry, wht, no idea!
wht, more burning
sounds like your yearly exam by dr. change third letter
fi7/44 - an old word for fussy or finicky. Rhymes with pinnacle.
oops, wrong one :">
ty, jac
y/w dcs.
Jilli - no need to hide. LOL. I'm not in a musical mood.
Thank Jacula., flosey
yw wht
y/w wht.
My last word of the grid (some hours ago now) was wa8/95.
It describes many of the size MINUS zero fashion models around now.
...and certainly doesn't describe me in the hliday pics my partner's niece put on Faceebook! I look like a blooming teletubby!
*hOliday pics
we6/42 is an interesting word. It's the sky or the vault of heaven. Sounds like your family are in good health.
I'll shut up now, since I appear to have cleared the chog.
hey, jac :-)
Hey Une.:-)
No, jac -- love the we6, but immersed in the grid, morewords, and CNN
hi... sorry for quiet on my part... on phone with my mom
I was about to go an apply another coat of red nailvarnish to my talons ready for Vampires Rock concert later.
could I have a clue for the second un6 please
i need that one too, flosey!
not cut (as in a tree)
wood not turned into planks, flosey.
un, plus past tense of cutting wood
thanks Jacula
i've been hearing that all day and finally "got it" :-)
Hi jilli.
got it, thanks too joey
Lol Une.
yvw
ty jac and une :)
and joey
:(
I now have 201 words and must get some supper.
tx, nrkii!!!!
Why :( nrkii?
;-D
I clued and nobody noticed
oh, sorry, nrkii! missed your excellent clue!
Oh nrk, very sorry, your response was so quick!!
i noticed!
(((nrk)))
LOL, I'm not really upset
I saw yur clue, too, nrkii.
but thanks for drawing it to our attention nrk, will be more careful
I often turn the chog off when I'm just starting a grid, especially if clues are flying around. I'm subborn in wanting to do as much as I can for myself.
Also, if it's the first 3 hours after I've got up out of bed, I'm not generally very chatty.
I always keep the chog hidden until I get to last 20% or so
I just ignore them jac, figure I'll get them eventually anyway
I like to see the chat as in general ifo about what's happening to who.
flosey? Ignore what?
okay, off mom-call and can focus on grid
yes, me too
ignore the big words that are flying in right after flip
Oh, I see Flosey. LOL. But once seen, I can't forget... unless it's something I was just about to do, or just about to say, or just went upstairs for...
:-(
hah! tom had a whistling tea kettle on, and the cat went to find the noise like she goes after mice
I hope she didn't pounce on it, dcs.
no, she stays off the stove, happily.
can someone clue me on the last 162 words :0)
Our stupid cat doesn't.
shall we just type them in Jen?
FIREWORDS for moi and FYI here's an excellent article (already!) about Major Hasan: http://tinyurl.com/ydfthjm
sounds good to me, but i probably have the ones you clue!
she was asleep on my lap and making me hot. so i'm glad she got up
I don't know about Jen,, but it's ok with me!!
wtg Une
Jen - sadly, no, unless you're more specific.
congrats, une!
yay Une!!!
Well done, Une.
nite, all -- *poof*
jac, i was just teasing
goodnight Une
Jen - I know. So was I.
'Night, Une.
but i don't know which 162 words i am missing!
Then you'll either have to peer at the grid harder, Jen, or open a list. (There's one in my profile.)
i am trying with morewords.com
lickety is up now
9 left!
i pick two letters or three and hyphens for the other letters and see what i get!
go nrkii go!
dcs, I know, but he's got the wrong date on the list.
yes he does, because that was the date where he is when he posted it. But i agree, it's confusing.
That could cause mayhem after the flip!
but it still works! :)
hi all
hi, pini
Hi pini.
I think it's because it's already the 6th in Oz...
hi pini!
hi Pini - was just sent the cutest pic of William, will post it for tomorrow until I come up with a word from the grid
this is yet another grid that is killing me! :)
I saw MrP (Lickety's wife) saying something earlier on Facebook about having a stalker. Anyone know what that's all about?
awesome, flosey! can't wait!!
me too, am more than tired of it
oh, dear, jac
dunno much, but I believe the police are involved Jac
pini/flosey - you're supposed to do the grid for pleasure. If you're not enjoying it, leave it.
lol, it's about adiction Jac!!
nrkii - Really? |That doesn't sound good.
and I enjoy the chat
Oh, I know, jac...but it's also an excellent challenge!
Mr P is very freaked out about it
A net stalker or a real life stalker, nrkii?
fireworks!
congrats, nrk!
wtg nrk
Well done one fireworks, nrkii.
wtg nrkii
not sure if it's all email or snail mail Jac... have not seen many details
thanks... must go see why my house is so cold now...
night all!
Night, nrkii.
I tried to reset the timing on our new central heating programmer earlier, but couldn't understand a word of the intruction leaflet and so have no idea what I've done.
g'night nrk
I think I may have set it to either stay on forever or go off forever.:-((
you'll get the hang of it, jac
oh, the fan? That's separate from the heat
Will I, dcs?
3 left....
i need one more word and i will be over the halfway mark! how about an easy 8 letter word, please?
Careful with using the fan word, dcs, it might lead unwary Babblers to the fa7.36 comparative.
gr8/50 = more gr5.14.
Hi, all, delaying the inevitable, have to remove my big pantry cabinet (and everything in it) and cut a hole in the wall back of it to get to a leaky pipe, sigh.
thank you Jac!
ge8/50 = chemistry word that begins like a pelargonium (summer plant) and ends up rhyming with skull word, cr*****.
phantom ocarina
wa8/95 - resembling a skinny fashion model or a Dickens street orphan.
oh yuk rbud, what a job\
rud - that's crappy. Know the feeling!
I'm just here putting it off, with a towel continuing to soak up the little puddle... priorities, must finish grid, lol!
LOL.
However, rbud, don't underestimate a leak. You hould get that sorted first.

I really should change to one of the 3 keyboards I've got stored now. This keyboard really needs thumping to get all the letters I type into it now.
hi all. would someone clue me the 8s so i can then go to sleep? ty.

*most
probably not, pini. Tether, end of, it's late/early, etc/
last le4 changes last vowel of next-to-last le4, which is "a gathering of males, of certain animal species, for the purposes of competitive mating display."

ke5 - change 1st vowel for ki5 - both plural
Well done on what, dcs? Robbing other half of his body heat? He wouldn't agree with you.

dcs - LOL, don't set me off on a philosphical or musical journey now because I need to slep before I do the tailoring of clothing that's needed later, plus some mending, then getting into full vampire costume to go to a concert in the evening.

I don't know if you get the UK series 'Benidorm' in USA, or if you would 'get it' if you did. No slight on your intelligence, but you'd have to know the certain type of Brit who now goes there. Anyway, the series centres around a group of people who find themselves together there year after year, I love the gay couple best. The fat one got a brilliant put-down line in the last one I saw, after a woman far fatter than himself had callled him fat. He looked her up and down in a kind of intelligent but girly kind of way and then said, 'Fancy having such lovely brown hair and dying the roots grey!'. Then he tossed his head with what was left of his hair and walked away.
finished !
and I still have 24 minutes before Greys Anatomy
funny, Jac!
nice
congrats, DR!
hmm i am exhausted, shall i beg clues for the last 2?
Well done, DR.
No need to beg, TO. You can just ask.
what do you need TO
please, TO, no need to beg
wa 6 after strolls?
more pale, TO
ok now i have lsot track of the last wa6 i need! :(
wa6 after he wa5 to work is more pale
rhymes with the Mt. in Washington St.
good clue Rbud
ty, i need one more wa 6 and don't know which onwe
do you have wa6 after the corduroy wa5? add a vowel near the end
If you're a huge fan or someone or something, you maay have a mania. wa6/30 rhymes with that.
wa6 afterthe ridges & before the stroll?
wa6/30 = wa + tells untruths.
oufnd it, ty and good night,before this group of junior high kids above me drive me batty
congrats and good night, TO
Or wa + 'reposes in a supine fashion'.
congrats TO
I think TO got it.
fa7.56, pls?
And I should be shot by my former English tutor for that last clue. Talk about over-egging the pudding!
More baby deer-like or more pale tan coloured.
Clue was for dcs.
oops, 1st fa7.56, pls
comparative for an fa* that ladies used to use to cool themselves, or if you want to be bawdy, to cover themselves with during a naked, erotic dance.
fa 7 = similar to a wind-moving machine
Jac, I don't know how you could do this listless. It has even more unwords than the little nasty ones.
ooohh, it went up, not down :D ty, rbud
Jilli - I just pulll stuff up from the filing cabinets in my brain.
I watched this programme on TV earlier about former winners of University Challenge. http://tinyurl.com/yctk6hv
I'm ever s glad that I'm not quite to clever as they are.
ca6 - relatives in california?
But I MUST be 'a genius' from what I saw, 'cos my house needs cleaning, my brain's so full it often can't sleep,AND I answered 4 questions from the quiz. LOL.
I know the ca4/9 word as a ca5 that has a 'u' in the midddle of it.
ca6/33 - pussy wiullow tree seed pod, but change to 't' to another consonant.
ac6, pls?
No, forgeret thatclue, it'sa 'Brit' clue.
we have those here, too jac, the ca7 you mentioned
Botany and anatomyy word, dcs. ac + personoal pronoun vowel + anagram of 'went very fast'.

Well done, dcs!
and as an aside, saddysolar plays a mean game of scrabble
YAY dc!!!
thanks :)
I can't find na6/30 -- help,please!
I think it was just me and dcs here? Should I now go and plunder my Beloved's 98.4 body heat?
unicorn of the sea, jilli
plunder away, jac!
fish with a unicorn hrn, jilli.
ty dc -- thought it had an h in it
so did i, but enable disagrees
dcs - remove the 'h' you are trying to put into the word.
there's a USS with the H in it, jilli
apparently both are valid
Hey, it's the 21st century, people, and apparently the age of dumbing down. Do we want to do that??
(Not good to make a battle cry when you're about to go to bed, but what the heck!)
If my old Heaad Mistress was here, she'd make mincemeat of all of you.
Except Jilli,maybe.
hello all!
Hi Stid.
Hi Stid.
*dumbs down for Jac* I don't like being mincemeat though.
is lickety working now?
Stid - you don't need to dumb down.
yes, stid
Lickety IS up now, but wrong date on the list.
YAY! (runs to get lickety)
I am up to 121 and feeling dumb enough. Want to play ten more minutes then will call it a night.
*Sulks 'cos Stid didn't check it Jac had a list first, which she does, btw.*
you oft do, jac
Jac has a list??? (((hugs))) thanks dear!
dcs - oneof 'the old school' of Babblers who had to play before lists existed.:)
clue for re6/36 please :)
yes Jac... you are one of the OLD guard, yes? *innocent mama look*
actually, babanon lists were there when i started. i didn't use a list at all my 1st 2 years, though.
jill, would help but I am currently about as clueless as I can get.
jilli, the rose we cut re6
hi stiddie :)
LOL was re-entering words I had because I forgot to load the ones I had found into Lickety... *sigh* yes, I am that tired.
every time Tom's gone in the kitchen tonight, he's said 'sh4' at least once, kinda entertaining
thanks for the re seain
The first lists were done by BrandyJack.
hm. because he can't find what he wants to eat? Or he finds what he wants and isn't allowed to eat it?
sorry, dc, not getting the rose clue
because he keeps dropping things, or overboiling things, or finding odd things...
A really nice guy who no longer seems to play now, He got pushed out, I think.
if one had cut a plant, and it sprouted there again, then it re6
jill -- stidkid was short, and then he **** (taller); I cut him down, and he regained the height...
yes, ain't seen BrandyJack in ages
a lot of people don't come much anymore Jacula -- lives get busy and people stop chatting, or only come at different times. I miss a lot of them.
ty dc and stid -- I was being dense
Babanon came into being bout a year aftwr BJ's ists.
I miss BJ. He was nice.
now how about re5/14?
have seen swmbo twice in the last ten days though! That was really nice.
I just get p*ssed of at times because no one ever seems to remember that BJ did the lists.
BJ was here when I arrived but everyone used Lickety and BJ must have decided he wasn't needed. He didn't chat much.
re5 - replace the pulleys and ropes on a ship
or re5 a sprung trap
oh, of course, dc -- was looking the wrong way round
32 left, 36 minutes . . .
oooh. got the first four FL words!
go jill go!
BJ never chatted in the chog, but you could chat to him in private, just like myself. Everyone didn't use Lickety then, Jilli, just most of the USA lot.
I am heading to halfway and then stopping. I am tired, it is late... and so much to start working on in the next couple days.
I should go now, because I might offend if I stay.
good night Jacula. see you again sometime soon.
I hope, that is!
Goodnight, Stid.
g'night, jacula
and I am heading to bed soon myself. Long day, but fruitful. See you-all again soon. *poof*
sweet dreams, stid
and I hit HALFWAY, too. *hugs and repoof*
can someone give me a hint on the ke workd?
Incidntally, when the first Babble grid went out not even Dr_God got all of the words. It took people like Sprite (whose first lanuage is Dutch) and myself, ferrari, bj and about 5 others to make sense of the grids. And so the Babblets were born.
ke5 - sort of like the kr6 in Russia, but anagram
then plural
ke5 = Turkish rug. Ke + first 3 letters of the citrus fruit that is not a lemon.
thank you very much dc and Jacula
y/w
fireworks for me
congrats, locks
WELL DONE.
funny, I usually get half the words in the first 15-20 minutes and the last 25% take an hour
Hello!
hi, jaeleigh. and typical, locks
wow jac. you were amoung the first babblers
I still feel like a newbie
oh crap.. I killed the chat again
it's good to have a skill, ruru :D
Phew! Fireworks!

Very well done, jilli!
Thanks to all the cluers, including Jacula for her list and then Lickety and morewords
just going for a very small break
