hi rose and BabbleRabble, and everybody. Good morning.
hey babrab, how are things in your neck of the woods?
Hello, sprite
peachy keen, hubba hubba
sprite!!! (((hugs ))) what did he/she say?
need one more n - have
stubby fingers... sorry
babrab, melbourne has broken it's record for continuous days of over 30deg, cel. no change expected for another 3 days!
need one more n in the n 0/3 box, have 2 ne 4s...
ne4 x 3, no4 x 1, no5 x 1
barely above freezing here right now :(
he wasn't very nice, but I think he knows what he is doing. He didn't say much, only ordered a couple of ... (cannot remember the word, researches?). Must be back next week to have him look at my nerves and veins. New Xrays were taken. Back to him on dec 7 and probably he will have something to say th4.
that is a heat wave
hi rosebud :)
yay. done the ns! now to do the 4 ts remaining!
* sigh * a long wait, th4?
hi, sprite!
yeah, but at least he is thorough. Was so glad my love went with me. The Xrays were faulty 3 times! Had to restrip and redress every time, and I was already panicking after the hardhanded doctor.
hi sprite! Just got back from a wander and saw your most interesting icon and story -- thanks!
I came home, overate/binched, th4 went to bed and slept for hours. But I must say, compared to say a year ago, I seem to be recuperate faster!
sorry your experience with the neuroligist was such unfun :(
neurologist
hi jilli *hug* and thanks. Did not want to turn away from the remembrance, for I do remember. But it is an interesting tradition, Sint Maarten.
binched?
binch eating?
new word to me ;)
binge
maybe I am spelling it wrong!
ah, yes, babrab -- hi
ah see, I am. Thanks BabbleRabble. Binge eating. Where some silly sprite cannot get her feet back on the floor and thinks overeating will solve it.
((((spritey))))
but anyway, it did help me to get to sleep and I do feel better. Maybe next time I can do it without the binging.
aw thanks rosebud :)
sometimes binging is a good way to go. did that yself today, ate a whole bar of lindt choc on my own...was seriously yummy!
one t5 and one t4 left for fireworks...any clues please...
I would spell it "bingeing". "Binging" would be like "singing", perhaps? English is such a tangled language . . .
rufi, te5 x 2, th5 x 1
hm, should have changed my icon, but it makes me think of my brother, a vet - and an ongoing sad story.
sad story, rbud?
both "binging" and "bingeing" are correct. english is not sensible, sorry.
I would say you are right, jilli. Bingeing it is! And yes, I agree, rose, sometimes it does help. But I am still trying to learn better ways to get back to myself. But at least I can accept that doing the old thing is part of learning a new way ;)
what story, rosebud? If you want to share, that is?
thanks House
ta4 x 2, te4 x 4, th4 x 4, tr4 x 1, tw4 x 1, ty4 x 2
he was in the Navy, and is now blind and nearly paralyzed, and as the story comes out, it's from radiation from the nuclear sub he was on. So sad, he was a very talented dancer
I know, House -- my Czech bro-in-law used to pronounce "finger" like "singer" . . .
omg, rbud!
that is so sad, rosebud. I am so sorry!
that's terrible, rbud.
rbud, D:
there are over a hundred other people in the same condition, more or less, and they were all on that same sub at one time or another.
the Navy's not too forthcoming about it, of course.
war has so much more victims than we know.
we don't hear about things like that, rbud :(
he still has his wife call us and tells us jokes. he refuses to be too down about it, just deals with it day by day.
that is heroism
what a man!! he must be a great guy.
Good for him -- it guess it's the only way to go
one last t5 left in the t0/9 box
his wife's a lovely Scottish lady, such a strong woman, has been with him all along, though it started right after they married.
t0/9 box?
rufi, greek letter, th5
this is what movies are made of, rbud! if i may say so, very heroic
yes jillibus...hanging on for that and now typing random words, lol
a lady who understands what it is to love and to marry.
have the greek letter...
or te5,
the small te5, have that too!\
it .... was... an... itsy bitsy t**** w**** yellow polka dot bikini...
te + anagram of role play
that's like my nephew -- married his beloved knowing she had muscular dystrophy. She was a delight and they were happy for about 30 years until she died a year ago from breast cancer.
thanks sprite , for the song of the grid! but have that one awredy!
don't know what you mean, t0/9
am sorry she died of cancer, jilli, but am happy for their long years of happiness!
I guess you're not using Lickety's list, rufiem?
fireworks
was wondering the same just now, jilli.
WTG RUFI!!
YAY rufiem!!!
yay, rufi!!!
yeah! thx so much to grannyrose!
gratz
yw rufi
no, jili dont use lickety as too tedious i feel...and then have you all to help me out and cheer me on! yippee
offer my clue services to anyone now if you need
offer my clue services to anyone now if you need 1
sprite, jilli, rufi is referring to the t tile which has 9 words fr4 it
but if you would use lickety, it would sharply reduce the amount of clues you would need from the chat, rufiem.
i suppose so - will try and use it tomorrow
oh, thanks, granny!
thank you :)
Hi
hi lady
Lickety's clues are a great time-saver!
(((( herin ))))
hi herin
HUgs my dear. Opps I forgot to change my icon
you're slmost in the grid today, herin
just add a vowel ;)
your icon is beautiful, btw, jilli. A lovely poppy to symbolise all we remember.
I am just eating left overs then going to study
thanks, sprite :)
and a very personal story, thank you for sharing
pizza....again?
Herin, duh to me -- I was thinking of the previous grid
you are a hero in your own way, lady! How goes study?
yep. ITs a food right? Thank you for sharing JIlli
We must remember
I stopped at 11 and was late to class
And I must go to bed! This was a nice grid, and so was the last one. Let's have many more like that!
nite, jilli. sweet dreams
we must, jilli. We have a strong memory of WWII in our family and we honour the memory, of all those who died in the cause of freedom.
sleep well, jilli *hugs* and dream ev4 better :)
Night Jilli
Goodnight all, and happy babbling!
*poof*
*for the cause
listless fireworks! (night, jilli!)
wtg rosebud!
WTG RBUD!!!
(of course all the fine clues here helped!)
ROse you arguing with me that pizza is not a food?
of course it is a food, lady. But it'd better not be the only food you take!
its left overs its too stinky hot to cook
must be tough to study in such he4
yep
less than a week now. Slowly putting away books i don't need
you goooo girl
i figure once its done it can be gone so i don't wonder what i have to do
would also like to know why facebook has to keep changing things
life is change... change is life... ;)

Oops, found it!

Thank you trif - you also gave me one of my missing v's!!
i aim to serve
16 left...
6 here, but stuckedy stuck stuck
Contemplating consulting the list.....(down to 13)
hi all
rats it is a holiday and I have lots of time
Howdy jmc
what song Trif?
Hmm, I think I missed the fish?
which fish mich?
*taps on screen*
what song what, jmc???
ohhh - the ty4 daly one? "I can cook too" - LOVE her version!
You posted earlier, jmc, that you saw a fish in the grid. I don't think I've found it.
"fish" is a babble term, mich - means a word you should have seen, but didn't. "hit me with a fish" sort of thing
the ty4 is a fish? (I am SOOOOOO confused).
(down to 11)
wasn't me mich i just got here
Gosh, I've been here for over a year. Think I would've gotten it by now. At least now I know what people are doing when they are 'monkeying'.
Sorry, jmc, it was you - trif. And now I have it.
yes trif that's the one
LOL - I took a while to catch on to the fish thing too - I kept looking for bass, halibut, you name it!
lol mich jargon always takes a while
Okay. Down to 6. Damn small grids.
LOL. I can be slow sometimes.
is the ev 7 a compound?
there are periods when people say *slap my with a fish* and someone would so I caught on to that one pretty quick
hi judi
I am bummed by the small grid too since I have lots of time today
No, trif. Ev7: One who is tossed out by the landlord.
a fish tossed out by a landlord!
I guess I missed that slang. I miss out on Americanisms since I am living abroad, and I miss Hebrew expressions because it is still only my 2nd language.
so mich you know the pb (with cabana boys) babblet and nbt right?
that is not an Americanism but a Babblism
ty trif!
sorry ty judi!!
4
go trif go
are all the h words he?
the one i found is ;-)
:p
*Happy Dance* Fireworks!!!
There is one hy4, Trif.
whoo hoo judi!
huzzah judi -- and thanks!
3
go trif go!
Sorry, got called away. Thank Gd I did too, I am supposed to give a talk at the university tomorrow and I had thought it was next Thursday!!
whew I finally monkeyed the hy4!
oopsy mich! that could have been embarrassing
hello babblers
hi welki
wow, that was a close one, mich!
morning welki
You said it, jmc!
just took the cinnamon rolls out of the oven - anyone want me to upload one?
yum! it will go well with my coffee
I buy a calander every year but I always forget to write in appointments if people contact me at home. The downside of cell phones is that people expect you to be available when it works for them and not when you are at work.
Oh well. pass the cinnamon rolls.
Do you use a yeast dough trif?
i cheated, mich - pillsbury
i use google calendar so it doesn't matter if i am home or on the road
i love pillsbury cinnamon rolls they are my christmas morning treat
My cell phone is just a phone so that wouldn't work for me.
i mean i use it on my lap top not my cell phone so much
When my sister wanted to sell her house, she made cinnamon rolls every time they had a showing. The house never sold and my bro-in-law gained 50lbs!!
then each month i transfer the appointments to the home and work calendars
Good idea, jmc, I'll have to get into the habit.
*giggle* that staging stuff has gotten out of hand
You said it. I'd just take out my boys' smelly shoes, wash the bathrooms and hope for the best.
good morning
hi harp
'morning, harpjane
Hi hap. Evening here.
I mean harp
not very many babblets so far
brb hospice is calling
*sigh* good thoughts your way, je
please - I would probably just wipe the lipstick off the milk and hope for the best! I think staging is so silly.
trif, cinnamon rolls sound yummy! I've got brownies in the oven, to go with the giant pot of chili for a bday lunch for a best buddy on Friday :-)
2
whew it was just a "checking in to see how things are going for you"
go trif go
whew *hugs*
1
(even though in real life, i am not a huggy person at all)
i want some chili but am deeply suspicious of chili made outside of Texas
no the hospice nurse gave me a hug and my sister said i was very gracious not shoving her away!
get help jmc....clearly a deep seated fear of northerners!
lots more hugs in babble land than real life
jmc, you would REALLY cast a suspicious eye at MY chili -- it's vegetarian!! But FYI everyone always slurps it up! LOL
bbl got to get ready for a client
i think we're somehow related, je
byeeee
veggie chili! run awayyyyyyyyy
LOLOLOL!!!
heck, even at work, i'm surprised at the number of folks who think handshakes are not enough
i bet i could fool you, jmc!! It's full of good stuff, including red wine and sherry!!
FIREWORKS!!! woot woot
yay, trif!!!!!!!!!!
wtg trif!
Huzzah, Trif!!!
I am now in double digits for list-less solving. yay me!
cool, trif!!
you keep track?
she's mega - anal . . . like the rest of us! LOL
sadly, yes welki, but just of that. Dont keep track of unsolved grids, or the wonderful ones where i fall asleep with 5 or 6 to go....sigh
i have fireworks, but i used the list ... feeling somehow diminished :)
is that narcobabblelepsy that you have trif?
this is sad. someone said there's an HY5, which means all i have left is that, an N4 and the C, which also has to be a 4. and i can't find any of them.
hy4 hursh not 5
he 5 is there
Hi babble pals
hy4, hursh
rhymes with height
hey beach! good to 'see' you!
going without the list isn't even on my list....
later, all ... coffee refill time
and you, welki!
ohhh
isn't anybody going to laugh at my joke?
ok, so then, which is the five, the C, or a top N?
hmph....
ci5
hahahahahaha
thanks!
done
cu 5 is a type of cat (wild)

no, our district piles all the holidays into one week- columbus day, election day, veterans day, and 2 days for teachers convention
sometimes it is worse having time off like that... the redjustment.. I had three days last week.. but five this... not so bad
we had workshops on columbus, work on election and veterans day too

WOW!!! Julien Bennetteau just beat Roger Federer in the early rounds of the French tournament -- unbelievable!!!!!!!!!1
i'm in total shock!!
sorry, une, I don't know enough about tennis.. I do know Federer (the whole world does), but who is Julien?
Federer is no. 1 IN THE WORLD
Julien is a 27-yr-old French player -- don't know his ranking but not in a million years did anyone think he could pull this off!
pretty impressive.. either he's fabulous or it was just great luck
it was so sweet -- when he hit the winning shot, he just sobbed uncontrollably
maybe Fed's distracted by his little twin babies LOL
i suppose that could do it. was he playing way off his regular game?
well, he wasn't playing as well as usual but also, Julien was playing extremely well
Of course, it helps that he's French and the match was in Paris
well lucky julien then
i'm just speechless -- I'm sure TONS of tennis fans are totally stunned as well
Earlier today Rafa nearly lost as well but he was able to pull it out -- jeez, this is just "early rounds"
ok, i'll zip back out of the chog -- just had to scream a little LOL!!! byeee
stunned just stunned ;-)
do any of the fr words use the sometimes vowell?
back from phone call... no, j
bye une,... have to go to PT. see you later
For the top T, I assume all words start with twe?
re-hi babblers ... stopped in to see if i can help anyone with clues
is there a tr word?
yes tr 4/6
bye dorens
hi welki
hi king
hi je .. no more frights today?
the top t words all start with tw
no, no more frights just battling financial aid for my son
Nuts! I've got 3 of the 4 and can't get no more!!
are there any sc words?
no
the tw words all track the w words except the short one
Just got the last tw word!
did you find the tr?
wtg king
jmc no fr words have the sometimes vowel but one of the fo words does.
8 left
hmmm ty wht *looking*
I'm probably late with that nugget but I was off working.
How can there be a tr word if all of the top t's start with tw??
because maybe it's off a different t
There are two tr combos on the grid.
there are lower Ts -- I kinda thought the postings might be confusing
Thanks, wht. I thought I was going nuts!
only one tr word
does anyone play on wordsplay.net?
sd
tween
hi kap, no, not me
weeny
Anyway, I've got to go now.
*makes note not to offer help*
bye wht
careful kap not to type words from the grid into the chog
I've got the one tr word and am still missing two of the words that start with the bottom-most t!
there are some th words
the bottom t has a ta4/4 word
Everybody, I just retired, and have more time. I've got 8 words left. If I can get them, I'll have fireworks for the first time ever!
*whistling*
go king go!!
I've got four th words. Are there more than that?
that is all I have but I am still short two words from that t
come on welki be a peach
not a chance
how about some chocolate?
Me, too! Still need two words from the T next to the H.
or maybe I can send the cabana boy #1 over?
for you, je, i would list the whole grid. for folks who don't have the courtesy to say 'thanks' or even acknowledge my posts, i haven't the time of day
ah king did you forget to tell welki ty for the hints about the tr word?
so .. which words are you missing, j?
ergh 14 words left... man i had nightmares about this bloody thing last night! :(
Yes, I'm a jerk. Thanks, welki!
I am still looking for two of the F words
hi Miss

there is suppose to be one with the sometimes vowel but my monkeys haven't found it
I have neither of the two bottom-most e's. Can anyone help?
oh, your monkeys are resting ... it's an age we were some time ago
jmc, think mathmatically for the sometimes vowel f

this is my first time on with this-how do you know how you are doing in relation to others?
i thought that was the preposition welki
missomnibus, I'm not sure which e you need? 0/1?

oh ... then back and fo*** .. like a swing
0_o
ah ty welki!

oh- there should be 63 words- and I only have 34
m
wtg kap keep it up!
still looking for the fo with the sometimes vowell -- not getting the mathematical clue
kaplan, you can also click on "lickity's babble clues" at the bottom of the screen and you'll get a nice help -- a list of the first two letters and length of the words for the whole puzzle list.
jmc, I've got both level and happening, but they are credited on other e's.
jmc how many days and nights did it rain?
arg!!! ty book (and I teach sunday school! for shame)
f finished
level and happening come fr** the bottom e

OK. I'm missing the he 5/16. Gotta clue for me?

that's why i was wondering if you were going to give it to the sister you're least fond of .. i wouldn't give a nanci griffith album to anyone but helen keller
lol welki that is some recommendation
we tell it like it is, sistah
Oh my god! Never even saw it! Thanks, jmc. One word to fireworks.

i don't know king --- how old are you?
hi, BR ... yes, akin to singing with your mouth closed
what the government charges you plus a vowel
so BR you are not a Nancy Griffith fan either?
I'm 64, right there with Ringo Starr! Does it really matter?
well if you are going to love me it might
I know not who Nancy Griffith is
i do like another texan whose voice has degraded over the years, but i still listen to her .. lucinda williams
BR I appreciate your icon choice
will you still need me will you still leave me when you're 64?
I wish I did not feel compelled to choose it
that was who the helen keller comment was about
Yes! Yes! Stop torturing me!
oy .. she's not texan. nevermind. from louisiana,
7, 7 words ah ah ah

Fireworks, jmc? Thanks a ton! Now, two questions. Where are you? and Do you have any idea how the lickety person figures out what he/she figures out? I guess I'll also ask, how old are YOU!
i need one more t word from the last column
>.<
*lurking* lmao
congrats, kingrichard
whoo hooo King!
grsts king
I am in Washington DC as it says on my profile (click on the icon)
Thanks, everyone. I'm not sure I have it in me to try to hit fireworks ever again. It took a ton of time!
I have no idea really but I think lickety has a computer program BR might know
and I am 58
im starting to feel young here
:P
and Babble is fun ev4 when you don't make fireworks
there are younger people in babble land Miss, just not me so much
6, 6 words ah ah ah
you're only as old as the person you're feeling up at the time ;)
well that makes me ageless then ;-)
hehehe
I've babbled for several years, but only to compete with one friend. Didn't even know I could click on an icon and get a profile. I don't have a profile. Do I have to pay to set one up?
yes you would have to pay but it is only like $15 bucks or less and is a one time payment
you also get actual fireworks
someone said bourbon...
lol
ahaha
5!!
here crossy *pours crossy a bourbon*
go miss go

Guten Abend. Been lurking for a while. Hope you come back Kingrichard and Miss Omnibus. If you clikc on the question mark in front of the words you will get a definition
are you old enough miss?
OK. jmb. I'll think about it. But for now, I'm a retired high school guidance counselor, in Chicago. Thanks again.
now take the water and just wve it over top of the glass then add a small ice cube;))

ty king I like it myself
We lived in Chicago 1960-64, in Hyde Park. Hubby taught at U of Chicago
I was quoted in the NY Times yesterday and possibly with NPR tomorrow or later
phantom: enchorial
my in-laws met at U. of Chi
good word BR
Thats where my husband and I met
too bad there is no l for it;)
ev 5 - what a landlord does to a tenant that does not pay; ev 7-- the one who did not pay
miss do you have ev5?

<3<3<3 Babbs

hi kje
thanks. the te was my last word.
we are going to Mama Ayesha's
thanks for setting it up, jm
ooooo - interesting - I remember reading about it but never tried it
i'm soooo looking forward to that day!
everyone bring digital camera! jm, how many peeps?
i made the res for 10 as instructed
it will be great to see dcseain & tom again too, just saw them about a month ago
maybe you went there in its incarnation as Calvert Cafe
i can't bring a camera as I was burgled and that is one of the things they got
i will bring my mom's camera
is nrkii coming?
idunno
you and dc have the rsvp's
jm, i'm so sorry to hear you were burgled
:(
it was definitely creepy
I was in the house
what? OMG, that IS creepy... were you sleeping?
yes I was and I think I was woken by them closing the back door
do you live in DC?
man i would have shanked the bugger
man this is a fast grid
i do live in DC in a very nice neighborhood
where people are very sloppy about locking doors
I am a quaker and basically oppose shanking miss :-)
i don't even know what shanking is
LOL jmc
lol monkey
does that mean chop their head off????
ah fair call the JM
if it was me, i would not shank, but i would like to shoot their balls off
stab
monkey should live in TX - then she could pack
well I won't do that either lil
next time I am craving osso bucco, I will order "Veal Stabs"
isn't that how it was so easy for Hassan to get guns?
that's the only shank I am familiar with
"poof" pops back in instead of doing work
hassan was in the military jmc... THAT is why he had guns
it started as a prison term lil and is now more generally used
nope he got them from a gun store
hi book
can i plx get a hint for the second e in the third column
yes, you can carry here with license
My, what a discussion. I'm a Quaker, too, and not sure, but isn't a shank a home-made knife in prison talk? (too many csi/etc. shows, I guess)
would likely be easy to get a license if you are army
that horrible sniper was given the lethal injection in Virginia last night
yes booky
yes book what Meeting?
lol yeah, shawshank movie ftew
hint me! :P
Millville monthly in the school year, Midcoast Maine when on vacation visiting family. My son just moved to Maryland...
that e is ey4
i would never get a gun. . but if I had one, anyone with balls should look out
wow, I remember that rampage monkey - scary as hell
I am Friends Meeting of Washington, DC
hmm ty jm
i lived through that rampage with the police stopping me because i drove a van
and my nephew being near the first kiling
jmc, how cool. We have cousins Dave & Lisa Johnson in the area.
and everyone leaving their doors open on their cars when th4 bought gasoline
jmc, how cool about being in dc meeting, not about the life crossings with killers
i am starving.. i'm going to make a pizza. Be back in a little while
your cousins may belong to a different meeting -- there are several here
i understood book
by, lil
that's why it was so scary - so random, never knew where they'd pop up
bye lil
jmc, actually, they live in silver springs, just work & send kids to dc
bye monkey - bon appetit
i remember driving north of Baltimore and thinking "I bet I could by gas here and not get shot."
anyone able to clue the two et's?
then your cousins likely belong to Adelphi

LOL, jmc - like we stand on formality here?
;) thanks for the experienced references, jmc & kje.
well when I first meet someone I want to make a good impression
*adjusts foil hat*
<blink>
especially someone who could rat me out to the Quaker Mafia
<eats crunchy chocolate>
*wondering why jmc never tried to make a good impression with me*
did too!
lol.. i was wondering if that was a gun in his pocket :P
Oh, I'm so glad I took the night off from working! My 11yo son keeps asking why I'm laughing...

OK, now I've got it -- two spellings of a hydrocarbon
There's a link under the letter counts...
n;s please?

I can only assume that, since I've always reacted to the music and the 'yanks in uniform' that I did and came back quite quickly.
Then I went again until '57.
57... 30 years before i was born
Ah, "American Patrol"
YAY dan!!!
MiisO - you are same age as my daughter then?
and MissO, you're a bit younger than my granddaughter ;)
Jitterbugging - we tried it in the 70s and my huubby dropped me on the floor, even though I was a skinny 7 stone 2 at the time.
I was a good jitterbugger (no smart remarks please)
oh lordy hehehe still appreciate the music from back in the day ladies, however im more of a flower child like my parents, they were born in 58 and 60
I have a new life partner now, and I'm heavier, but I'd bet he'd risk a hernia to chuck me around on that dance floor.
things ok now, jac?
Hi Jillibus! How are you? I missed your entrance here.
6 to go...need mo 5/14, mo 4/5, mo4/5, ne4/7, ta5/14, te4/5 pls
hello min -- I missed your presence!
Things between me and ex hubs,. jilli? Well he still makes me laugh but I still havn't forgiven him for ending our maarriage and damaging our children.
MP: MO- in the early hours of the (time of day)
But, as youknow, jilli, I now have a new child to take care of/,,,
Interesting difference between the US Veterans' Day and Canada's (and the UK's) Remembrance Day. Ours is not a happy day, and we remember all nations who have sacrificed.
ty miss o how did i miss that..LOL
lol np
MP: MO - a person who looks after the dead is a **** etician
UK day is not a happy day either, Jilli, especially since our last 3 remaining veterans from The Great War (WWI) have died.
jac, I may have misunderstood what went on a while ago -- thought you were upset that you were not offerred marriage now. This is not a subject for the chog, methinks, sorry.
Jac, I hear we still have one WW1 vet still alive.
Jilli - e-=-mail me and we'll find a way to talk on 'phone.
ok, will do but not just now! I don't have skype -- do you?
jilli - I think that might be the man who likves in Australia.
aussie aussie aussie!
It's a Canadian
oy oy oy

I do have skype but have neverused it yet in a year or more.

Any chance now of me beig able to post hte song all Jews hate but still dance to now?

http://tinyurl.com/y8e5h34 Latest version of Jewish kid doing the song.

none taken, just superfluity
I need to remember my p's & qs at times
4 to go...still need mo 5/14, ne 4/7, ta 5/14, te 4/5 so close now...
I'm watching Rachel Maddow on MSNBC -- love her
We can't help being grammar police. It's in our nature and is dueto the way we were brought up.
see, jac and jill are sorta twinny
Sortof but neverin themusic world.
Grinnin ear to ear..that was a good one jilli! :o)
I just think the f word means the user can't be bothered to think of anything more apt
ahahaha fair call.
And I agree with jilli re that.
I agree jilli...there are so many prettier descriptive words
Another phrase I can't stand is 'I can't be arsed to do it', You can't be BOTHERED to do it so why swear?
This is a battle I constantly wage with my step daughter ( WELL, SHE WOULD BE IF WE WERE MARRIED)
not a common expression here (not snobby either, lol)
some in our county pronounce that "axed" very uneducated speech
aussies use 'I can't be f'd' a fair bit... convict nation that we are, though we are known to be one of the rudest nations in the world i guess... is true I have to admit
oops typo meant country
im on my first holiday overseas atm, and we are so loud and outspoken - even without being crass compared to our New Zealand counterparts
arsed = axed? I don't think so. Asked = axed in ebonics, no?
iN MY EEXPERIENCE, mp, IT IS ONLY THOSE WHO ORIGINATE FFROM frica who say axed instead of 'asked'.
I'm a first gen aussie - my parents came from england and south africa...
my mother and fam dont say axed however
but 'Y'all' is used a fair bit
MissO -- my maternal grandparents were aussies
Ooo where abouts from, if you dont mind me enquiring
and I have cousins there -- pommies all, I believe.
Sydney, MissO
Ah yes
but they didn't stay there. Went to Germany pre WW1, then the USA
Only been there once, scarey place to manevour around on ones lonesome.
ooo i see
Where are you?
I have rellies all over
MisO - I totally know why you pronounce things as you do now.
I live in Melbourne at the moment, but lived in South Australia for four years but grew up in Western Australia - where i was born... i was born in perth but grew up in the south west in a beautiful place called Denmark
lol Jac
Herinfernaldy is in Melbourne, isn't she?
?
Isn't lif interesting and the world, too? Isn't it just great how all nations are getting together? Isn't it so shit that nations are still at war? Oh, it's not nations is it? It's allin the name of religion nce again. 8 more childrn will b growing up without their Dads in UK from this past week; soldiers in Afghanistan.
yes jilli that's what they call it here...I think only the younger set use it--kinda developed in the streets in the 'hood' it's not exactly slang though more of mispronounciations being passed down and teachers not being allowed to do there jobs as in the past. being told just pass kids thru to the next grade...when i worked I was appalled at the kids i interviewed...they couldn't even write a decent sentence...my secretary once corrected my memo from you to yous (or something like that)...she said i was wrong because spellcheck said so...*smile*
gosh typo again meant "their" not there bad on me
hey jacula, Mpittore
I'm going to get my next icon -- the theme is Ancient Animal Species that are still Alive
Oh good, MPitt -- glad you caught that!
Spellcheck is rubbish! Just try it with Greek words. It will give you 'shovel' (agarden spade) for Tivoli at best.
no hello to me or MissO, tella?
/cries
Alll byyyyeee myyyyselllf
:P
oooooooops. Sorry :(((
hey Tella ^.^
hello tella ;)
hey, nice 2 meet u guys
Now watch for my next icon -- it's interesting . . .

thankz!!!!!
54 mins ^.^
I have got into too dark a place to be appeased by lightnes now. We diddn't evenhave our last 3 soldiers from teh Great War alive this time.
don't u think today's puzzle is a bit queer
Time I was gone,
jac not in the washington dc metro area...many black americans here use that ebonics but i must say many also do not...so...it just sounds unprofessional and uneducated...I am hoping that people like Bill Cosby and Barack Obama will lead the young black americans in the direction they have chosen it will help to quash some prejudices some have
Tellam all the 'queers 'I know are lovely guys if a bit bitchy at times.
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

* giggle * maybe! :)
(refresh for my new icon)
Oh...aren't they just beautiful....look like dandelions popping...thank you all...this is just the most fun...I have a big smile right now...this is good for us all!
TEN TO GO!!!!
YAY MPittore!!!
Jill! is that the Henry who just became a daddy?
wtg pitt!!!
you can do it, stid!
you can dooooo it, stid!
go MPitt go!
go stidmama
oh! i mean YAY MPittore!
My net is SO sluggish just now
gads, I'm tired tonight...I think my profs are draining my braincells!
same for you, stid?
no doubt, pini -- they sure do mine! LOL
okay, listing with ten. no time to dawdle.
<-- didn't use list tonight! :)
EN please?
got the 7...
not exit
clues available here
en5 = not the exit
en + attempt
thanks pni 5
pinini?
dang, too late :(
thanks anyway jill -- it's one of pini's first times to clue for me you know!
oh shush!!! LOL
two...
it is rather odd tho!
firewords.
what's odd, pini?
wtg stid!!! :)
nice to finish a grid on a day I thought I wouldn't play at all.
YAY stid!!!
I was thinking that, too, stid...glad you could make it!
well congrats stid...fantastic wasn't this a blast!
I thought it was a nice grid.
it was fun, MPittore!
i agree...nice
well, I have a few minutes left on my timer, but want to have a better handle on the paper before I turn in tonight. I refuse to let my health suffer over a paper...
it was finishable without a lot of pain!
even though it won't be what I want.
Next one will be a tough monster because I won't have time for it -- people coming for dessert and coffee and bridge in the evening
don't you hate when that happens jill!
isn't that always the case, jilli?
You want super-perfection as usual, I suppose, eh, stid?
like the audacity of the torch coming to the island when you had a bridge game. VERY poor timing on their part, I must say!
I know -- tsk tsk
what's worse, stid, is that they didn't even bother to check with jilli to see if she could carry it for even a moment!
yep pini...no additional wrinkles in my brow on this one...a few anxious moments at the end but "I get by with a little help from my friends" hmmm sounds like a song...giggle my elmo!
I got roped in to more bridge than usual this season and am regretting it.
ROFL
I DO want super-perfection, Jill! the problem is, this is a synthesis paper for the entire quarter, supposedly based on the short weekly papers. However, my weekly papers were... WEAKly written and pure dreck. So I have scrapped most of that material and now trying to synthesize and pull things in better.
That will probably work perfectly, stid.
I know pretty well what I WANT to say, it's just finding the way to express it AND support my assertions with appropriate citations.
brb...
kinda like writing a legal paper with case references...can be frustrating at times...
I'm so glad all that is well behind me, stid!
how about this: explain your theories of teaching, learning and schooling and their implications for you as a teacher... *bummed out mama look* "work in progress" will be the title of my paper!
so... reluctantly... allons-y!
That's probably the right theme for the whole thing.
oh, stid....I still have all the faith in world in you...you can dooooo it!
I think that means let's go! (((hugs jill))) I am going to have something to turn in that is more than ten pages and hopefully not entirely rubbish.
Fare thee well, stid, and you eill.
Brevity is the soul of wit
*hugs and choclit for all* thanks for you support, ladies. You are GOOD friends! *poof*
*you will
brb
9 minutes until more wordfinding induced brain death! wooohoo! :P
Can't wait...and the rest of the gang will be here shortly! :)
oooer new pick Pini?
very cute
yeah...it's the icon theme for 11/12/09. ;)
ooer, see i dont know these things, im just a lowley non-paying player :P
I think Sprite is the icon theme keeper...once you go Pro you'll be able to change your icon, too! :)
MissO, did you read about Pini's icon (and mine?)
nope Jilli
wb jilli
Sprite is definitely the icon theme keeper -- for her list see http://tinyurl.com/6z7unz
