oh, pip, just realised what it was for -- I did see it but thought it was for a c word!

12:24 am

that is not a rule, pugs

12:25 am

no but the general sentiment it always seemed

12:25 am

it varies

12:26 am

depends on who's playing at the time too

12:26 am

oh I've noticed , just saying....

HI flosey

12:28 am

well, no harm done, right?

I wish France wasn't a proper noun

12:29 am

indeed not just wish there was some consistency

12:29 am

holding off the first hour for what?

12:29 am

clues, mlf

12:29 am

ohh ty jill

12:36 am

don't you hate it when you're missing just one word on a tile and it turns out to be one you thought you typed?

12:36 am

I assume the EY 7 is similar to the 8?

12:36 am

sorry- pb fpr me

12:36 am

thanks sammy'smom...more please...

12:37 am

ey7 is the only 7 I am missing now

12:37 am

TO 6/7 was probably called right?

12:37 am

there is no ey7

12:37 am

maybe there isn't an ey 7 -- thought it had been called

12:37 am

I was just thinking maybe that was the deal...heh

12:37 am

is the ey 8 a compound?

12:37 am

i called an 8

12:37 am

yes cyber

12:40 am

oh well, guess I'll spot it sooner or later!

12:40 am

the 6/21 is in combo with the 5 before it not the 7 after

12:41 am

unless you have a st5 in your ey3

12:41 am

they're all related, the 5/6/7

12:41 am

co7 = having a co5

2:03 am

ca=3...you need 11...so find two tiles that add to 8

TY dart

2:05 am

hey dart. any warmer in your ne4 of the woods?

2:05 am

we hit 30f -1 C today...came out of the deep freeze about 2 days ago

where do you live, dart?

2:06 am

south of minneapolis minnesota

2:06 am

almost summer, dart

i spent new years in new brunswick and nova scotia

2:07 am

it's nice lol

it was quite cold and very snowy and windy there

came home to practically balmy weather and sunshine

2:08 am

so, dart, down to 3 sweaters inst5 of 5?

2:09 am

no sweaters here lol...just wore my normal short-sleeves shirts to work with a jacket over them...rarely wear long sleeves ever

2:10 am

good grief...actually you sound just like me....a hint of sunshine, and out come the shorts and flip-flops

2:12 am

now if I were outside for a while...like skiing or something like that...then maybe a sweater :)

if i try to type affect/effect again somebody confiscate this keyboard

2:12 am

it has to snow here for me to even contemplate anything heavier than a long-sleeved blouse. like that's going to happen!

2:13 am

josh,lol, having fun with your phantoms?

i don't know that i'd call it fun, but there are certain words that i see over and over even when they're not there

i imagine i see them in my dreams

2:15 am

skiing?????that implies sport of some kind, doesn't it? only thing to do in cold/freezing weather, curl up in your favourite armchair with a great book.....

2:15 am

don't do that much anymore...getting too old for that

2:15 am

oh, did i forget the hot cocoa and marshmallows? can't forget that combo..

2:16 am

ah go on, dart, bet you're not THAT old.

2:16 am

I lost my connection and when I got back, no one was here. Just now I had to answer an important email.

Hi Mudd, Hi Katie.

5:10 am

Hi Sally ... and I love your name!

It distinguishes me from all the dog lovers!

5:11 am

And there are a lot of them here.

5:11 am

Not a bad grid today.

Which country are you from Mudd?

5:12 am

I can't believe that tech is not a word.

5:12 am

US

tock is also not a word! (as in tick tock)

5:16 am

Yeah, I tried that one, too.

5:17 am

techno isn't either - Hi

I should really keep a list of words I try every time - and hi lynxxx

5:19 am

That was another one I tried.

5:19 am

I could accept it if it weren't for all of the other odd words that they do accept.

5:19 am

I'm finished.

5:20 am

well I for one am impressed - Congrats Mudd!

congrats Mudd. Half-way here.

5:20 am

ty ... guess I'll get going. Have a stupendous day!

5:21 am

I am supposed to be shampooing carpet. Isn't it enough that I have the machine?

10:28 am

I think that's a very good effort

10:28 am

lol red

the problem with the shampooing is that I now have to remove all objects from the floor...

10:28 am

ugh

10:29 am

pops in to empathize with red --- i have to switch contents/furniture of two rooms today and have decided to cook a big breakfast ... procrastinating? you betcha!

Nice welki. Maybe another cup of coffee will pep me up. I do enjoy having a clean home.

ok going to get some radio going with "Cleaning music....

have a great day al!

11:19 am

red is going to pay for leading me down the primrose path!

11:19 am

Hi all.

11:20 am

hi sally

Are you all having a good weekend?

11:22 am

after that entrance jmc du7 yourself ... and start again lol

11:23 am

ad5?

11:23 am

i am! i took my house guest to the airport and missed my turn on the way back and decided to pull off at an overlook of the Potomac and enjoy my beautiful city

11:23 am

a and d4

11:23 am

good suggestion joanne

11:24 am

hehe

11:24 am

o, duh, thx joanne

11:24 am

then i swung by my sister's and we took hazardous waste to the dump

11:24 am

yvw

11:24 am

fun fun fun

Well the first bit sounds good, jmc. Not so sure about the hazardous waste.

11:25 am

it was good to get it out of the house and they won't pick it up -- you have to take it on certain days

11:26 am

batteries, paint, electronic things

11:27 am

how is that du7 a word!

11:28 am

clue pls?

11:28 am

it means to snub someone i think ata

11:29 am

it is not really the same as to du4 a table

11:29 am

how odd!

The definition says it is slang for Medevac.

11:29 am

lol what's new? ;-)

11:30 am

really???? i never heard that!

11:31 am

hi folks ... another short set of procrastination before i get to some muscle work in prep of my daughter/grand-daughter's visit

Ata (or anyone) can I ask you a Facebook etiquette question?

11:31 am

sure

11:31 am

hi welki looking all cheerful with the pink and blue skulls

11:32 am

nbt

11:32 am

hi folks

11:32 am

back for round 2 after some sleep

11:32 am

hi pip

11:32 am

one of the few times i picked a theme up from sprite and i get lip *lol*

I am friends with several Babblers. I have had a friend request from someone I've never heard of but I think is the husband of one of them. AFAIK he doesn't play Babble. I don't want to offend Babble friend, but not sure whether to agree or just ignore.

11:33 am

what is the theme today?

11:33 am

what did you almost do your PhD in, pippin?

11:33 am

funny shoelaces

11:33 am

fe6 the last please

11:33 am

you can ignore without offending

11:33 am

sally, what about just sending a message asking who the person is?

11:33 am

do you want to friend him?

11:34 am

Like these jmc

11:34 am

ignore ... love that button

11:34 am

i was not giving you lip by the way

11:34 am

hi, hego

11:34 am

Hi Welki

11:34 am

o I wish I had a photo of my favorite shoe laces i wear -- dollars signs!

11:34 am

danged internet .. no inflection. apologies, jmc

11:34 am

i was in social foundations of education - so anthropology, sociology, history, and philosophy all at once

11:34 am

so there welki :-P

Yes, I might just ask who he is. I can't imagine why he would want to friend a total stranger

11:35 am

ooo interesting. stidmama would be interested in that I'm sure

11:35 am

i loved the coursework and the reading and learning, just not really meant to work as an academic

11:35 am

lol np welki i am very hard to offend in the chog

11:35 am

sally, just message him saying something like "hi, I assume yo're the husband of XXXX. Just checking, I don't normally friend people I don't know"

popping back in, to say Sally, Ignore him.

11:36 am

i also loved teaching women's studies

11:36 am

I tried to be an academic, just no jobs available in it

I have gotten several unusual requests from men and odd russian ladies....

11:36 am

if you ask him a question it is harder to ignore imho

Good idea Ata. I think some people just like to score a high number of "friends"

11:37 am

hey red! you tricked me into the pb on your parting shot before cleaning! *glare*

11:37 am

Afternoon, peeps.

11:37 am

i agree with jmc .. if you don't know him, even if you know his wife, why would you want to friend him?

11:37 am

but it canabsolve feeling guilty about ignoring people - if you tell them you won't freiend anyone you don't actually know or something

lol red. No unusual requests like that, I'm glad to say.

11:37 am

Friend no one. Enslave all.

11:37 am

lol, judi

11:37 am

yep, I don't have friends, I have minions

11:37 am

i have onions

11:38 am

my problem is that now that some of the people i knew growing up have found me it is harder to duck the jerks from yesteryear

11:38 am

mmmm onions

11:38 am

hi judi

You must be a cat Ata.

11:38 am

onions are stronger than minions!

11:38 am

I learnt well from all my cats growing up :)

The saddest thing about today is that we have bacon in the house and I meant to have a bacon sarnie for breakfast, and I FORGOT!!

11:39 am

If you reconnect with old friends, that's a re-onion.

11:39 am

..and usually taste better, too

11:39 am

and no surprise to me these lovely Texas that treated me like sh&* when I was growing up are -- shall we say-- from a vastly different political persuasion than I?

11:39 am

oof, that's bad!

11:39 am

that *is* sad!

11:39 am

that is a sad sad story sally!

11:40 am

Oh no, JMC! Such talk! LOL

11:40 am

i have the same problem, jmc!

11:40 am

i've been found, too, jmc ... uncomfortable past and now they want to be friends. *ptui*

11:40 am

i never can keep bacon in my house -- i fry it all up eat in one sitting

I'm out to lunch tomorrow so will skip breakfast, but there's always Monday to look forward to. :-)

11:40 am

I refuse to get involved with Facebook, Twitter, etc.

11:41 am

i do have one very interesting friend from hs who friended me

11:41 am

i mean really these are the same kids that called me a cootie, never invited me any where and generally mad my life HELL and they want to be friends NOW?

11:41 am

and a year later she outed herself as "belle de jour"

11:41 am

CootieCootieCootieCootie!

11:41 am

i thought you grew up in texas ... those are the same folks that i went to school with in queens!

11:41 am

so basically, i went to hs with possibly the world's most famous prostitute

Oh really, pippin? I read about her.

11:42 am

*belle de jour*? lesbian for the duration??

11:42 am

lol pip

11:42 am

Heidi Fleiss?

11:42 am

she's got a blog and they made it into several books and a tv series

11:42 am

judi i know you are trying to be amusing but that is actually like pouring salt on an open cut

11:43 am

with Billie Piper

11:43 am

yup

11:43 am

Sorry, jmc. ((Hug))

11:44 am

i know you didn't mean anything judi ((Hug))

11:44 am

my parents divorced in the early 60's and were of two different religions ... the kids loved it, lots of material there

11:44 am

ooo that kind of belle de jour!

11:45 am

i honestly was very clear to my adult friends that if anyone gave my son the Cootie game i would immediately throw it in the trash -- so i admit to being a little obsessive about it

11:45 am

good morning babblers - aren't we glad to have good babble friends - just reading back on your evil hs years

Wasn't she some sort of scientist in her day job? Something high-powered, but it didn't pay well.

11:45 am

<-- took lots of cootie shots in the school stairwells

11:45 am

sorry, I shouldn't ask - but cootie game?

11:46 am

lord knows it helps to be older!!!!!!

11:46 am

it is a board game ata

11:46 am

hi jbv

11:46 am

a stupid board game ata

11:46 am

Brooke Magnanti

11:46 am

she actually does quite well with the science, the call girl thing was when she was in grad school

11:46 am

older, more experienced, tougher (in the eyes of others) ... but those old barbs still sting, don't they

11:47 am

I thought "Cootie" was a toy you assembled - kind of like Mr. Potatohead. Obviously, I never had one.

ISTR it was to pay her fees, pippin.

11:47 am

i had that cootie toy when i was young!

11:47 am

well believe it or not i got several offers of that sort when i was working my way through college . . .

11:48 am

i think there are toys too but i really think the manufacturer should be shot

They say most housewives are sitting on a furtune, jmc.

11:48 am

i think many girls get started that way, jmc, so easy to accept cash, then the lightbulb goes on

11:48 am

i never got those offers, but then i went to uni in the bible belt

!! furtune > fortune

11:48 am

why on earth would you think it would be fun to make a toy out of a childhood insult?

11:49 am

Remember "Mystery Date"? Poindexter was the loser date.

11:49 am

i went to Uni in Texas myself pip

Why is cootie an insult? Genuinely don't know.

11:49 am

i can't decide if texas is better than georgia

11:49 am

I don't know either

11:49 am

cooties is what you say someone has when you don't like them

11:50 am

it is an imaginary form of lice --- bugs that get form touching the person "with" cooties

11:50 am

oh, gross, don't touch him, he has cooties

11:50 am

Cooties were generally (and childishly) though of as germs, bacteria, etc.

Oh! TY.

11:50 am

Anything thought to be contagious.

11:50 am

so if that unfortunate person picks up your pencil you run around screaming "cooties" and ask for cootie spray

11:50 am

i vastly prefer cooters to cooties

11:50 am

cooties was a make believe disease kids said you had ... cooties = lice = icky. but if you got pinched in a certain way, you'd have had a cootie shot

11:50 am

ohhh

Sorry, I find that quite funny jmc.

11:51 am

Cookies are way better.

11:51 am

Afternoon (or whatever) all--just popping in to ask for mercy. I need the fifth se word (se 5/16) and the se 4 that i think is the last one

11:51 am

and if someone touched someone else who "had" cooties, they were then infected until a friend gave them a cootie shot

11:51 am

it isn't funny if you are the person who is thought to give the cooties

11:51 am

it's funny when you're not the butt of the joke

11:51 am

I guess saying someone has fleas would be our nearest equivalent

11:51 am

we used the cootie thing in hs - very cruel behavior

11:51 am

especially when the torment goes on for years

I know, but children are very cruel and I can see the funny side.

11:52 am

i am actually getting choked up now thinking of it

11:52 am

it was anything but funny ... horrible. groups of kids screaming "COOTIES" while pointing

11:52 am

it went on day after day and year after year

Hey, sorry, jmc. Didn't mean to upset you.

11:52 am

we now have hours and hours of staff training for teachers on how to recognize/stop/prevent bullying, etc. but sadly the kids are very inventive and will keep on coming up with new things

11:52 am

kids suck sometimes

11:52 am

you think it's funny? i can't believe that anyone would think ridicule is funny

se 5/16 is the adjectival form of se 4/5

11:53 am

even in hs when everyone was too mature to use the word people all knew and I had few friends

11:53 am

it's bullying. cruel bullying.

11:53 am

soooooo lets change the topic

11:53 am

hi helen

11:54 am

Okay - I cleaned the kitchen top to bottom yesterday and my legs hurt - TOPIC CHANGE

May be should add the last letter is a sometime vowel. the se 4/4 (last se) has a double consonant at the end. A badger's se**.

11:54 am

and hi bo and jayk

11:54 am

good for you geek

11:54 am

hi everyone (sets up lunch -- ham, roast beef, turkey, veggie tray, assorted breads and rolls)

11:54 am

hi all

11:54 am

is this geek pain day? my muscles are killing me from running and rock climbing the other day

11:54 am

Good for the kitchen!

11:54 am

my house is still clean from the last day of my housekeeper who quit

11:54 am

ty Mom

11:54 am

hi mom and boo

11:55 am

Oh yea, are you looking for a replacement?

11:55 am

any one offering?

11:55 am

hi ho bo to all of you - yard work beckons, will someone please turn up the heat outside??

Don't speak of cleaning kitchens - my ambition today in the kitchen goes no further than defrosting the fridge. (Fortunately I made enough pizza last night for two days!)

11:55 am

Hi JMC and you're welcome Science

11:55 am

ooh, that's right, i'm making hummus today

11:55 am

Thanks Helen!seat

11:56 am

I made reservations!

11:56 am

yikes--i'm off anyway

11:56 am

lol i did that for supper judi I think I need to make lunch!

Fireworks - why will I never remember to*** (meaning very fashionable) until I have tried almost every other possible thing?!

11:56 am

i had a gal come into the house every two weeks ... loved it, thought the expense well worth it ... but she moved on to another career. i miss her. badly.

11:56 am

bye jayk

11:56 am

LOL not wearing my glasses - read pip's to say "making humans" today! LOL

11:56 am

my house keeper was elderly and getting worse by the month

11:57 am

humans are tasty! but hummus with cilantro and dill is nicer

Sounds fun, geek :-)

11:57 am

sounds like fun!!

11:57 am

whoo hoo helen!

11:57 am

mmmmmmm humous

11:57 am

love hummus with onion chips

11:57 am

You just keep your cloning experiments to youself, missy!

11:58 am

it's hard to find another, jmc. been looking for a year now ... i have to have someone here i can trust, since i won't be home when they clean

11:58 am

hummus with pita chips (simply naked ones, only salt)

11:58 am

never had it with onion chips, that sounds good

11:58 am

My husband claims to hate chick peas. However, I made hummus once and told him it was "bean dip". He loved it.

11:58 am

i would have kept her out of sympathy but she decided she wanted me to pay her under the table which i cannot do

11:58 am

i normally eat mine with naan if i can find it

11:58 am

ahhh, i ran into that, too! i can't, either

11:59 am

so true welki that is part of why i kept her after she didn't do such a hot job

Housekeepers are hard to predict - my mother had one woman, a delight - they had many common interests, could chat all day, but if my mother wanted to read or write letters, she wasn't interrupted. But her husband retired and they wanted to move to Florida; the next woman we found was almost illiterate and could talk of nothing but religion and politics at table. Very difficult for my mother, who was basically captive with her for hours every day.

11:59 am

good idea judi! lol

11:59 am

that is why i only hire for a trail period before i hire for real

12:00 pm

BBL. Damn food talk has made me hungry.

12:00 pm

by the time the trial period is over, my house could be empty

12:00 pm

bye bye Judi

12:01 pm

the most valuable things in my house are my laptop and the stuff in my safe

12:01 pm

she can have the TV

Must go begin the defrosting. Would rather be frosting! Good luck all.

12:01 pm

i noticed my neighbors have a new housekeeper so i may ask them how she is doing

12:01 pm

bye bye Helensgirlkid

12:02 pm

i deal with folks who are underhanded and sneaky all day long (and some who are nice people, too) ... i've come to be very suspicious of letting people into my home without serious references

12:02 pm

bye helen

12:02 pm

bye, helen .. happy defrosting :)

12:02 pm

when it melts it makes it very messy walking and then when it freezes it turns to ice and makes walking dangerous

12:16 pm

hi berry

they're predicting 2 days of heavy rain, so that will probably take care of the snow (and make muddy little footprints in the house)

2:02 pm

ty Vicuna

2:02 pm

it was/is!

2:03 pm

I noly had to cry for about half an hour.

2:03 pm

Lucky you. Unfortunately it reminds me that I have no idea what I'll be feeding self and family tonight.

2:03 pm

lol. I react badly to onions. I find it helps to recite tragic poetry though. SHame to waste the tears.

2:03 pm

I'll leave the pot in the PB for you then.

2:04 pm

How kind.

2:05 pm

*grabs pot back* and makes note that Vi can't do onions, Ata can't do co6/39 and HAz can't do prawns.

2:05 pm

No no, I love onions! I can EAT them. I just can't CHOP them without copious tears!

2:06 pm

I can eat ANYTHING! Now give me back that pot!

2:06 pm

Good to see you I feel I have been inabesntia for a while but am trying to get back to a normal routine ish.

2:06 pm

and make up tears here

2:06 pm

LOL OK h*hands pot over*

2:06 pm

Hi Joanne

2:07 pm

hi fm and vic

2:07 pm

Well, I missed a lot of Babble over the holidays anyway. We had lots of people in the house, etc etc. ANd I don't always chat so much these days. But it's always good to see you!

2:07 pm

Hello, Joanne.

2:08 pm

am finished but can't stay away...i'm sick

2:08 pm

and you too dear :) I have to say the recipe I used today was so simple and god did it taste gooooooood!

2:09 pm

*offers Joanne the French onion soup*

2:09 pm

No tsick Joanne, jsut addicted like the rest of us - although we will deny it if asked.

2:09 pm

no not that kinda sick lol

2:09 pm

Ooohhh.... lol. *takes back pot once again*

2:09 pm

Vicuna - have you seen the onion chopper that keeps everything in a covered container ... the fumes won't get you.

2:10 pm

sick for the many returns...i love to hate to finish

2:10 pm

"as seen on TV"? Sounds like something else to clean, though. And cleaning makes me cry, too! lol

2:10 pm

can you please share the simple french onion soup recipe? i would love to try it. thanks

2:10 pm

i don't deny

2:10 pm

That would'nt work for the soup Christine as you need to slice them thinly so that all the sugars can be released.

2:11 pm

If I keep the onions in the refrigerator they aren't quite so volatile.

2:11 pm

fm i want the recipe

2:11 pm

Hang on a sec joey and I will get you the link to the one I justused.

2:11 pm

thanks

2:11 pm

Yay!

2:12 pm

dog just poofed cabbage

2:12 pm

Then what abpout using a mandolin? That would be so much quicker than slicing, and the slices could be as thin as you want.

2:13 pm

Yeah, that would work.

2:13 pm

http://tinyurl.com/ybhv32d HEre you go - you can use home made or bought stock wroks well either way and be brave when doing the long slow cook of the onions.

2:13 pm

thanks

2:15 pm

but don't use stock cubes.

2:15 pm

Mmmm, looks yummy.

2:15 pm

would anyine like any help??

2:15 pm

not a doctor so don't go there

2:15 pm

Im done but thanks for offering Joanne

2:16 pm

yvw fm and congrats

2:16 pm

No thanks, Joanne.

2:16 pm

ok vic

2:16 pm

How are the Togs Vi?

2:17 pm

and when is your next art show? Anything lined up?

2:18 pm

Snuffly and coughy, but otherwise well, thanks. No recent exemplifications of brilliance, I'm afraid! =D

2:18 pm

Next art show would be first weekend in May. Just carved a pair of Quails Suitable for Valentine's Gift (ha ha) but haven't printed them yet.

2:19 pm

Snuffy and coughy - sounds like extras for Snow White *grin* sorryto hear they are stil not back to driving you fully crazy.

2:19 pm

oh do email me a pci when you do the first ones - would love to see it.

2:20 pm

Oh, they're quite perky, actually. But it drives me much more crazy when they're all pathetic.

2:20 pm

awe ((()))

2:20 pm

The TOGs are perky. The quails are, too, though, I guess. Sure, I'll send you a pic.

2:21 pm

*refrains from nagging FM about when she's going to get back to work on some needlepoint or other fun projects*

2:22 pm

I hope they are back to bouncy ToGness soon. Umm am taken up with still sorting the house but did look on the net to see what embroidery classes there are in the area but to join the City and Guilds costs a fortune so am still looking.

2:23 pm

Wow, you've done better than I expected if you even started looking into it! I'm impressed!

2:23 pm

also noticed there are salsa classes not far away but as the weather has been sooooooo bad haven;t even thought about it yet - come the spring perhaps.

2:23 pm

Oooeeer. Salsa!

2:24 pm

already joined the Country Club but then got snowed in so haven't been able to get there since .. so notbeen sitting still so much :)

2:25 pm

You should ski over to the Country Club.

2:26 pm

hope you approve that I am not hibernating too much although I would just love to see the sun soon! Ha ha

2:26 pm

You just take care of yourself, dear.

2:27 pm

Our weather has finally warmed up. But we actually had plenty of sun, even when it was -14.

2:28 pm

you too and on that note unless anyone needs clues I am going to go and put the kettle on. Lovely to see you Vi, our snow has almost gone thank heavens and we are at +8,speak soon.

2:28 pm

Farewell, FM!

2:29 pm

Hugs and *poof*

2:30 pm

Vicuna, I visited your site and noticed you have flower bookplates and cat notecards; do you have or will you have cat bookplates?

2:32 pm

I don't have any, Christine. I suppose they'd be a possibility - and everything cats is always popular... lol

2:33 pm

If you do, at a later date, give me a headsup - rita.girl@earthlink.net

2:33 pm

Thanks, I will!

Hi folks. When you use Lickety, is there a quick way to get rid of the previous day's words?

2:57 pm

yes, just refresh the screen

refresh clues Kaplan

I did but they wouldn't leave- stubborn things!

2:58 pm

Hey, Kaplan

Hey, hey Hego!

2:58 pm

My daughter is going to Copenhagen tonight for jer junior semester abroad!

Oh, refresh fee. I'll mail it in.

clue for the fe 6/33 please?

2:59 pm

see those fees have to be paid on time or it gets turned off... and either to bo or me Kaplan

Lickety has instructions on the right side for when it won't refresh

3:00 pm

Oh lucky her, Kap. I was there a few years ago - and its true what the song says "Wonderful, wonderful, Copenhagen"

3:00 pm

fe6/33 - more foppish

3:01 pm

i was there 55 years ago - loved it!

3:01 pm

I should say MOST foppish

A neighbor corrected my husband when he made the mistake of pronouncing Copenhagen like in the song

3:01 pm

Hi Soodle

thanks MetFan

3:02 pm

Welcome, Luv

3:02 pm

Well, the Danes pronounce it CoooopenHaaaaven.

I'm gonna go through my Lickety now- ttyl

3:02 pm

yeah, those silly Danes

3:03 pm

They may be silly, Bo, but they are a remarkably good-lookin race of people. Men, women & children!!

3:04 pm

I agree 100% - they

3:04 pm

trying to inject humor :)

3:06 pm

Hey Bo! I would love to hate them!! They invaded this place a gazillion years ago, with their hats with horns etc. They had a great time, raping and pillaging!! (LOL)

3:06 pm

I was not among them!

3:07 pm

Bo wasn't there.

3:07 pm

They are still finding Viking artefacts around old parts of Dublin.

3:07 pm

3:17 pm

Soodle

3:17 pm

my favorite viking was Fran Tarkington! lol

3:17 pm

Impaled on their horns, I guess (The horns on their hats, of course....)

3:17 pm

My husband met a Dane, now he's my former husband.

3:17 pm

LOL

3:17 pm

my favorite Viking is Sidney Rice

3:18 pm

Too funny!

3:18 pm

Oh Christine. No answer to that!

3:19 pm

Victor Borge told the story of meeting his wife. he said he sent out for coffee and a Danish and there she was!

3:20 pm

LOL

3:21 pm

Well, they've been married for 36years (we were only four, I think) so for him it must be better the second time around.

3:22 pm

Anyone need any clues?

3:22 pm

Did you bag a Viking to replace him, Christine?

3:22 pm

Help with the ey8, please??

3:23 pm

Don't I wish. I got me a fireman (my fave), but it didn't take.

3:23 pm

seeing organs + rock word

3:23 pm

Met - the seeing organ, and Mick Jagger headed the Rolling *****s

3:24 pm

TY Soodle, is that some strange Britishism??

3:24 pm

3:24 pm

TY hego, too

3:24 pm

thx Soodle - never, ever woulda done that

3:24 pm

Heck - I never heard it before, Met. I think its a Babbleism.

3:24 pm

thx Hego also

3:25 pm

Oh come on, what sort of dopey madeup word is that?

3:25 pm

Never heard of it either, and I used to read the dictionary for kicks

3:26 pm

a word of convenience - for the grid!

3:26 pm

Hah! 'suitable for bashing-in-the-eye of Vikiings who steal your husband'.

3:27 pm

um... didn't I ask bo a question I thought I did...

3:27 pm

Yay!!! You Go Christine!!

3:27 pm

I tried to find it but I couldn't

3:28 pm

suppose it is related to "kidneystone" ??

3:28 pm

Nah. I can't see anything, Oodle...

3:28 pm

no

3:28 pm

ask away...

AHHHHH, I have returned the carpet shampooer to the store. It isnt perfect, but I couldnt stand to have the thing any more.

3:29 pm

I'm thinking perhaps she sat, in the altogether, on a rock in the harbor: that'd get his attention.

3:29 pm

when you said you were in Copenhägen 55 years ago I got the impression you were from there and I also asked... I never heard it pronounced copenhaven

3:29 pm

Red, you're all done! Whew

I have a feeling I could shampoo for a week straight...... now I just need to organize a bit and get some light bu;bs how is everyone?

3:30 pm

Well, Christine - I saw that statue. And it is the most insignificant little national monument I ever saw. I couldn't believe it when I saw it. All I could say was 'Is that it?'

3:30 pm

90 left and i've hit a wall - so i'm taking me out to dinner - nite all & happy babbling & chogging!

3:31 pm

poor Christine! What a bum. :-(

bye boj!

3:31 pm

Night Bo - and watch out for the Vikings............

3:32 pm

Night Bo and all. See you tomorrow

I'm glad I started you all riffing on Danes- now I have to catch up on the chog

3:32 pm

OH now I will never know

3:32 pm

Well, he's not a bad guy, and we made a beautiful baby/young woman... and he paid child support until she was 21, so -

3:33 pm

But I must say, without any bias or prejudice, our kid is better looking and nicer than theirs, so there!!

3:34 pm

I suppose he's not all bad, so, Christine. Better than the yoke I married. He skedaddled 2½ years ago, and not one cent since then, for me or our three kids.

3:34 pm

oodle - not a Dane (English descent) - born in Vermont - and they hit the V, not the G

I like the Victor Borge joke.

3:35 pm

Last heard of in Bangkok, Thailand (!!)

3:35 pm

ohhhhh ty bo

3:36 pm

Well, Soodlebum, remember this - all you've lost is him, but he's lost you and his kids.

3:37 pm

Absolutely, Christine. He phoned on Christmas Day, and not one of the kids would speak to him. Mind you, he was off his face.

3:37 pm

clue for the lone e is that ee?

3:37 pm

?? off his face ?? drunk?

3:38 pm

Yup Drunk. As a skunk.

3:38 pm

Oodle, its a ey 4/6

3:39 pm

Who was last heard of in Thailand?

3:39 pm

My runaway husband!

3:40 pm

is that plural of those out of which you see ?

3:40 pm

No, Oodle. you have the first 3 letters right, tho.

3:40 pm

no it's that word with a different cons at the end

3:41 pm

1 left, the FO6,30 and it's driving me crazy!

3:41 pm

An unborn baby in the womb, Joy.

3:41 pm

Pooh on him, ;let him stay there. You don't need a runner - except you children need to be provided for.

3:41 pm

thanks!

3:42 pm

That fireworks for you Joy?

3:42 pm

ok I am confuzzled

3:42 pm

the first three letters of the seeing organ and the one-humped letter

3:43 pm

i got that

3:43 pm

the fo?

3:43 pm

Confuzzled! Crikey, we are going to see that one in Babble soon - will you stop giving Lickety ideas, Oodle.

3:44 pm

Oodle. 2 ey's. One is the seeing organs, and the other is the first 3 letters of that one, with a different ending - the one-humped cons. (I hate confuzzlement)

3:50 pm

Have I totally murdered the chog?

3:50 pm

nope, just staring at the grid

3:51 pm

and why would that change the grid... lickety doesn't have anything to do with the grid itself he only gives clues

3:51 pm

Thank goodness, Pippi. I thought everybody had run away...

3:51 pm

i'm down to 23 and may have to go to a2z

3:51 pm

was excited thinking this might be the first time i didn't need it

3:52 pm

I doubt if I can help, Pippi, but if you want to run any by me....

3:53 pm

i'm going to go through the chog history first and see if i can find any good clues

3:53 pm

didn't understand the humped letter... I thought it was like humpback letter... figured it out ty

3:55 pm

Think camel backs Oodle, one hump, two hump. Don't like it myself but there you go. Morning everyone

3:55 pm

What hump???

3:55 pm

Hiya Lynn

3:55 pm

hi Metfan!

3:55 pm

oh I got it now... ty lyn and hi

3:56 pm

Hey lynxxx

3:57 pm

brb

3:59 pm

There WAS once a time when that question would elicit at least a few knowing snickers - am I REALLY getting old???

4:00 pm

Steady on, Met..... (actually, I was waiting for a couple of smart-alec replies myself -- LOL

4:01 pm

I was beginning to think I was the only one chortling to that one, Soodle!!

there was a time when spelling out a word was just not done.

4:03 pm

Hi TOwl. When I first started it was done a LOT, happily it's reduced down to almost nothing

4:03 pm

Hi TO

4:03 pm

Oh, Oh - must dash. Bye Soodle, lynxxx, oodle, everyone.

4:04 pm

bye Metfan

4:04 pm

Bye Met

whne i first started, it was understood that not everyone could finish. Clues were asked for rarely and those given were witty.

4:07 pm

I only started a few months after you and i remember being terribly confused about what the snake letter, hump, hook was. I think the chat is more chatty nowadays as Lickety is now available and you don't have to concenttrate so much on the grid

4:08 pm

Whenever I see somebody looking for a clue, and I already have the answer, I find it very hard not to throw my tuppence worth in.

i agree. but not sure that is a good thing

4:09 pm

Kind of agree with you TO.

Hey all. I am really befuddled by the grid, but am working on it as it has nothing to do with carpet shampooing.

4:11 pm

Not critising at all Soodle, it's just how much the game has changed/developed over the years.

lol i had hair cut and highlighted today.

4:12 pm

hi Red...and when does Mum arrive?

4:12 pm

How long has Babble been on the go?

Tomorro! at 1 pm. The house looks OK. not perfect, but I am exhausted !

red? what is tomoorw at 1300?

oh sorry

4:13 pm

Roughly 6 years

My Mom's arrival.

No more carpet shampooing. All I need to do now is the ishes, the laundry and clean off a chair and change the lightbubs.

but back in the day, people didn't always get fireworks, because of the lack of Lickety.

oh...change the lightbulbs? couldn't you just du4 them?

4:15 pm

And have you guys been here since the beginning?

not me

4:15 pm

check on Profiles Soodle...you can see the joining dates

4:16 pm

4:58 pm

begging for cluesisn t cheating... its just begging-lol

I can't deal with the a2z word lists

4:59 pm

the last 2 da is a double consonant and then a vowel

4:59 pm

i am so thick today that i still dont understand the en/6 cluers

da5,and da6? Not Russian hut?

4:59 pm

and the plural

en6- prefix to fa4

5:00 pm

7:47 pm

hb, trif.

7:48 pm

Drive safely ..

7:48 pm

get this - off she goes for the big sleepover, skating, sledding, etc. all promised. She wasn't there 30 minutes before she called HERE, saying they were bored, and other girl's parents were "busy" so could *I* come drive them to the mall? Jesus.

7:49 pm

how disappointing! How old is your daughter?

I took a lot of breaks lbd. But man that vibrating carpet cleaner was a bit hard on the back.

7:50 pm

8:05 pm

8:19 pm

I'm sure she did miss you after ms loungy pants' house

8:19 pm

8:20 pm

Nothing like someone else's mom to make you love your own

8:20 pm

8:20 pm

so your daughter was invited to keep her daughter entertained.

8:20 pm

please, please you guys, promise you will remind me of this next time I want to sell her to the gypsies, k?

8:21 pm

I am pretty sure that is why she is invited every time, kris. poor little mite.

8:21 pm

you have years of teenage angst to go thru, Trif.

8:22 pm

I feel bad for her friend. Probably getting no useful parenting

8:22 pm

you should tell Tertiary to charge for babysitting.

8:22 pm

LOL lbd - yes!

please the EN 6?

8:22 pm

are there any other site other than but like facebook and myspace?

8:22 pm

8:28 pm

tertiare wants to say hi - - that okay with everyone?

8:29 pm

8:33 pm

hi soph

8:33 pm

The da 4/5 is January 16, 2010 & here is my story of clues for the day.It might bring tears to your ey4/6 Last night, I attended a benefit to raise money for a four month old baby who has leukemia.The family has been in such an emotional st5/10 since the diagnosis and it has been a te 4/4 to their marriage. The mom had to take FMLA so the family is living on one salary and we don't want the family to lose their es 6/18 to medical bills. The co 4/5 of benefit was $40.00. They made a lot of money at the benefit. All who attended paid benefit fe 4/7. This was the 1st benefit so 5/16 but there will be more to be held on other da 5/12. I have never se 4/4 such an outpouring of support for someone.Was a designated driver so I drank co6/39 all night. On 4/5 it was over, I drove my au 4/5 back home. It was a very long day for me and I was happy to return home to my co5/16 bed.Now my friend has some very hard decisions to fa4/8 in terms of chemo for her daughter.The baby was se4/4 home to spend Christmas with her family,but now she is back in the hospital. Now I am going to take a break and get out of this se 4/4 and go sit on the so 4/7 and watch tv.
