12:06 am

I just read Sprite's April 1st story I sent it to all the grandkids

12:07 am

Oh, I haven't see it -- will look in My Friends for Sprite

12:07 am

It's so interesting

12:08 am

who is Sprite?

12:09 am

those darn mutants have been here 2 days ina row now!

12:09 am

i'm late hey all

12:09 am

Sprite is another babbler who lives near Amsterdam in the Netherlands. She lists the icon themes.

ha 7

12:10 am

I don't know much about babble, yet. But thanks for answering my question. I don't even know what icon themes are. :-)

12:10 am

hey sammy

12:10 am

dolphin alert

12:11 am

tx maniac

12:11 am

hi s'mom and mitch

hi jilli

12:11 am

nona

12:11 am

I don't know which one is the dolphin; maybe I found it already

12:11 am

jillibus, is that your real picture or is it an icon?

12:11 am

oops, sorry

it's an i4/4 grem - you probably have it already

12:12 am

I do have an in4, okay

12:12 am

yeah, I have it

12:12 am

Welcome, BriSan. Not everyone follows the icon themes, whcih change every day. Today's theme is A Word from the Grid, which will serve as a clue. I haven't found one yet so my icon is yesterday's theme. If you click on it you will see what it's about.

1:02 am

ah, I didn't mean the sa7 is on the board

1:03 am

nan, you call Jesus my Lord and sa7

1:19 am

LOL, very quiet isn't he?

1:31 am

Errol and I go way back

1:33 am

maybe he's tending to Dylan

1:33 am

oh, ruru, hellooooo over there

1:33 am

so why isnt asprin accepted..?

1:34 am

because it's aspirin?

1:34 am

that would do it...lol

1:34 am

maybe, i would love to see the lastest photos of Dylan, wonder if ruru has any?

1:35 am

aaagggghhhh! JILLI!!!!! ( shhh, i won't tell )

YAY flosey -- didn't know you spoke Klingon

1:43 am

1:43 am

that word comes up now and then

1:44 am

I knew the ap word -- it's the 28 I have left which must be klingon

1:45 am

yes, lol, am feeling a bit sleep deprived

1:45 am

Contrary to popular belief, I'm not fluent in Klingon. Hello jilli (and everyone)!

1:45 am

can I help Jilli?

1:45 am

hi Douglas

1:45 am

ach -- you said "an5", not ap5 -- obviously I can't see anything

1:46 am

hi doug

1:46 am

Hello flosey

1:46 am

hey douglas

1:46 am

flosey -- you run along to bed like a good girl

1:47 am

lol, thanks mom!

1:47 am

thanks for the offer, though!

1:47 am

night flosey, sleep well, hun

1:47 am

That an5 is in crossword puzzles on a regular basis...hello granny

1:48 am

must remember that Douglas, haven't been doing them lately, how do they clue it?

1:49 am

Usually "negatively charged particle" to distinguish it from just plain old "charged particle"

1:49 am

oh foo -- I was looking at the wrong A

1:50 am

thanks Douglas

1:51 am

and now 'poof'

1:52 am

Hi OSGMA

Anybody need clues?

I haven't started and I feel asleep with 9 to go on the last grid

2:24 am

Oh dear! Well this one is annoying.

I was tired and I needed a Nap

2:25 am

Well, I'm half alseep now so if nobody needs clues I'm off to bed.

night night

2:27 am

Night all! and *poof*

3:44 am

hello all - talk about an annoying grid:)

3:45 am

good morning

3:45 am

is it nasty and small, just small, or just nasty?

3:46 am

Morning! Woke up at 4 and couldn't sleep so here I am--only to have my spirits, high at the number 82, suddenly plummet. What IS this thing?!

3:49 am

Morning, it's hard but doable, random typing works well today.

3:49 am

nasty and small in my view

3:49 am

hi FM

3:50 am

uep doing lots of randon\m typing

3:50 am

Hi ruby!

3:50 am

lol Tanja

3:59 am

What would be the likelihood of having the cartoon turtle warriors here two days in a row?

3:59 am

Hello all

4:00 am

ty mudd, I wouldn't have looked for them 2 days in a row

4:00 am

gm lynxxx

4:00 am

TY Mudd - was just trying to find Ns

4:01 am

This started out as a nasty grid for me, but I'm gradually accepting it. I don't like small grids so it is a mindset that I have to overcome.

4:02 am

ye** - they are either too too easy or too tough

4:02 am

yup

4:04 am

And in almost the same spot, Mudd!

4:04 am

When there is a 7 in the middle of nowhere, I panic, but they have been relatively familiar today ... except the Shakespeare Hamlet one.

4:19 am

Hello everybody :) Its a miserable morning here - all the better for Babbling!

4:19 am

yup

4:19 am

good morning Soodlebum

4:20 am

hi Soodle

Hi Babblers. Nasty cold grey morning here, but have coffee and a horrible grid to look forward to :-)

4:20 am

hi Sally

4:21 am

Hi Sally

4:21 am

The grid is actually not so bad once you dig in your heels. I only have two words left and have not been here all that long.

I came on briefly quite early, and got 28 words. Can't see any more at the moment!

4:21 am

And now I'm finished.

4:21 am

don't believe a word Mudd says

Yay for Mudd!

4:22 am

believe me, i don't!

You mean not finished?

4:22 am

very clever Mudd!

4:23 am

Here is my golden clue for the morning ... In my humble op7, a half as7 heart regimen at bedtime is a good idea and should be part of our ha7 (British sp. of course).

Oh, big thank you mudd!!!

4:24 am

At least at my age with my family history it has to be.

4:24 am

TY!

4:25 am

And that is all of the 7s. And with that, I am going back to bed.

4:25 am

G'night

4:25 am

night Mudd

4:35 am

Mudd's clues were great, but the final HA one is eluding me - anybody got a clue?

4:36 am

put a be in front and it would make more sense

There;s an ha 7/36 and an ha 7/48. Which one do you want?

4:37 am

I have the one associated with your tresses

4:37 am

No matter - monkeyed it!!

Soodle, I just love your profile words. Am copying and sending to someone I know!

4:40 am

Words I try to live my life by, Sally. LOL

4:40 am

i get as far as the tresses and don't see the rest

4:40 am

oh yeah! there it is

4:40 am

Jayk - the final ha word normally has the letters BE preceeding it.

4:41 am

the inmate didn't get parole because of bad beHA*****

4:42 am

good grief!

4:44 am

I have said that more than once in this grid, Jayk!

4:48 am

What about the na 5/14 - even Morewords isn't helping me with that one....?

4:49 am

me either

4:53 am

babies wear na**i*s

4:53 am

thx lynxxx

4:55 am

The grid won't accept that word from me, Lyn....

4:55 am

try again - it should

4:56 am

Aaaarrrrggghhhhh. Thank you Lynn

4:56 am

yw

4:56 am

20 left for me, enough for now (too tired) Goodnight all

4:57 am

Good night Lynn, and thank you.

night, lynxxx

5:05 am

This is a Horrible Grid!

yup, really struggling and don't want to list for such a small one.

5:07 am

worse than horrible: completely wretched! i can't find the pi 5 or 6--maybe the fist ones

I have a pi 6/21, don't know if that's the one you want.

5:10 am

it might be--there's 2 of them

5:10 am

The first pi 6/21 is the same as the op 7/32, minus the first letter, and the second pi 6/21 is the Latin plural of PI 5/12

OK, I now have two pi 6/21s and a pi 5/12. Do you want clues?

Yeah - wot soodle said.

5:11 am

cept i don't have the pi 5/12

5:12 am

PI plus double cons and ends with first vowel. It means the outer part of your ear.

Does it soodle? Didn't know that. Thought it meant a feather.

5:13 am

sheesh! thx. 4 left

5:13 am

have op7 & ha7.....can someone point me in the direction of the other 2 7's?????PLZ

Ah, see there are three definitions, including both ours.

Another ha7

5:14 am

And an AS 7.

And an as 7 which is a common headache medication

5:14 am

2 ha 7s--one having to do with the top of your head and the other very stupid: bad be*******

5:16 am

Sally - I just remembered the PI 5 word from a biology class long ago, when the teacher caught hold of my ear, and nearly pulled it off my head, because I didn't know what it was called. The shock treatment worked, cos I never blooming forgot it!

5:16 am

pr 5/12?

lol soodle!

5:17 am

got all the 7's, thanks all

Oh dear, just monkeyed the aj 5, and no wiser having looked at the definition!

pr 5/12 is microscopic particle

5:20 am

well so it is! thx

5:21 am

morning, all :) Jayk, you're up early!

Welcome to the grid from hell, NB!

5:22 am

I'm sensing that, Sally! only 10 words in and it's just awful

5:23 am

And it doesn't get any better, Nancy!!

5:23 am

scrolled back and got the as7 from your clue, though, thanks :)

5:24 am

hi NB--yeah, woke up at 4 and couldn't sleep anymore. been at this wretched thing for 2 hours

I didn't think that one would work, but I suppose it's a generic word and not a proper name.

5:24 am

ok, i'm down to the horrible unfindable sp 5s

5:25 am

it might be like 'heroin' - once a brand name but now the accepted name

5:25 am

any help with the pr5/12 please?

5:25 am

Oh I hate that, Jayk :/ though when I have insomnia, I'm at my most productive. If I can't sleep, I get up and clean something!

5:25 am

heroin was a brand name?

5:26 am

there's plenty here to clean, but i must get grimly through this first!

You get up and clean something NB? Shropshire is lovely, you should visit :-)

5:26 am

Believe so, yep, from when it was first marketed as a "non-addictive alternative" to morphine...blew up in a few faces, I imagine

5:27 am

always, Sally! We need more than daylight hours to keep the army of dust-bunnies at bay

5:28 am

i found one!

I just take off my glasses, then I don't see the dust bunnies.

A dust bunny or a word jayk?

5:28 am

LOL Sally, my question exactly

5:28 am

FW!!!!!!!!!!!

5:29 am

Well done Jayk! 6 left here

23 left here :-(

5:30 am

this was so un-fun. but i think the Times is here, so i can now behave normally

hi all

5:31 am

thank you all--anyone want clue before i poof?

5:31 am

nice one Jayk!!!

ty jayk, but I will struggle on.

5:31 am

Wowee. Fire works - at last!

5:32 am

OK then--see you tomorrow only i hope not so early

5:32 am

If I asked for one, Jayk, I'd have to ask for the remaining 70. Enjoy your day ;)

5:33 am

can't seem to get the pr5/12. Monkeys just gave up.

microscopic particle, nurse

5:34 am

Nurse, if you commit a crime, you get sent to this place. Just drop the snake letter

think mad cow diseasel

disease!

5:35 am

thx all!

5:35 am

Bye everybody. Have a 'Good Friday'. (chuckle)

5:35 am

Oooh, thanks Soodle! After the microscopic particle clue, I typed in 'proton' compusively ;)

bye soodle

Ta da! Fireworks. Feel exhausted now and in need of a lie-down (probably not due to Babble, but due to talk of cleaning and dust bunnies).

well done Sally. have a hot cross bun

better than a dust bun

5:55 am

Good morning/day to all.

hi Scrabbler

5:56 am

Do you live on Guernsey?

Born and brought up there, but now near Birmingham

5:58 am

Not an easy grid I am guessing.

no. it's got some very strange words in it, including two aj's that i can't find

5:59 am

aj + double vowel.

ty. another one i hadn't come across before. i only wish i could remember them all.

6:00 am

It was in a grid just 2-3 days ago, I think.

6:01 am

Oh, morning you two :) slipped off to get a cup of tea and got distracted by the kitty

that might have been the day when i never got round to it. if it's a very big grid, i'm better not to start it or i'm up till all hours.

6:02 am

hello everyone!

6:02 am

Hi NB

Hi Annie

6:02 am

Hello NB

6:02 am

Hi Annie! :)

6:02 am

and hi to guernsey

where was the beautiful photo taken?

6:03 am

this grid looks like a stinker

6:03 am

Good morning Annie! Are you also having summery weather? It was in high 70s yesterday, and will be same for today + tomorrow.

6:03 am

Scrabbs, Looks like a beautiful is coming up..I have all my windows open way up which makes me happy

6:04 am

*day

Lucky lucky Annie and Scrabbler. it's cold and raining here.

6:05 am

I opened windows and removed storm panes on storm doors last evening after work. The fresh air was great. I work all day today though. It's usually my day off my my partners are off for the holidays.

6:05 am

guernsey, we have had enough of cold, rain, wind.

6:05 am

I will kayak for the first time this season tomorrow!

good morning Babblers :)

so have we. worst winter for years and keeps coming back.

6:06 am

Hi Nanette

hey Scrabbs should be a great day for kayaking

6:06 am

Amen to that, Guernsey.

6:06 am

Nono!!! Where have you been? How is your hubby?

6:06 am

Oh, the flooding is awful in Rhode Island--I am watching NBC.

been around but not chatting lately Annie not too much time. Hubby is imporving slowly thanks for asking

6:07 am

It is heartbreaking. So many people lost everything.

6:07 am

Was he quite ill?

omg yes! I feel so bad for them. I know exactly what they are going thru having been thru it myself once

Scrabs he had a bout with pneumonia and CHF which left him very weakened so had been in a rehab center

6:08 am

Oh, my. But he is improving?

slowly yes

6:09 am

One day at a time, Nono.

thats how we try to do it Scrabs

6:12 am

I am stuck after just 34.

its that kind of grid, Scrabs. These words sure dont jump out at me

6:13 am

BRB--going to grab breakfast.

6:15 am

good idea, going to put up a pot of coffee

6:29 am

anyone want coffee?

would love some, thanks Annie

6:30 am

Back with hot farina with blueberries.

ohhh that sounds good Scrabbs

6:31 am

*pours coffee for Nono--puts out cream and sugar*

think i'll fix some oatmeal with apples

6:31 am

I switched to tea a few wks ago. Occasional coffee but not my usual 4 cups every morning.

Thanks Annie, no cream or sugar needed here

6:31 am

I usually have 2 cups of coffee every morning.

6:32 am

scrabbs, do you miss not having coffee?

6:33 am

I don't LOVE coffee but drank/drink it for caffeine. I decided to go off and see if my migraine frequency will drop off.

6:34 am

I hope it helps not having coffee.

6:35 am

"eeny" should be a word...eeny, meeny, miny, mo...

6:36 am

I am stuck with 49 words

6:37 am

I remain stuck at 35.

pria

6:37 am

I didn't know you suffered with migraines, Scrabbs. Leo gets pretty bad ones. Any recommended miracle cures?

6:38 am

Nope, Kaplan, I already tried that.

I mean good morning

6:38 am

hello Kaplan, need one I do not have

6:38 am

I take the generic equivalent of MigreLief---magnesium + vitamin B complex + feverfew==daily pprevention

Can't oblige

6:39 am

Neurologists recommend that combo--research it, NB

6:39 am

Prevention is what we aim for. Thanks! The problem with most migraine cures is that they seem to completely knock the patient out.

6:40 am

I figured that you, being a doc and all, might be safer than google ;)

6:40 am

And this is natural.

6:42 am

quite. in that case, I'm off to research that more thoroughly! thanks, Scrabbler, much appreciated

6:42 am

YW, NB...and I must quickly get ready for work--I am supposed to leave in 3 minutes, haha.

have a great day Scrabs

6:43 am

have an easy day, scrabbs

6:44 am

good morning, everyone!

11:29 am

don't think I've seen you around in a while, Scribe :) how are you?

11:29 am

sooo nice to have holiday on beautiful Friday...hi Nancyboy

11:30 am

Hi Joanne :) might be beautiful for you - been chucking it down with rain here, on and off! Typical english weather

11:30 am

it is gorgeous here.in the high 80's all weekend

11:30 am

my nephew and his friends were playing field hockey in the street yesterday. I bet they'll do the same again today, nice as it is.

11:31 am

yes the weather sucks there Nancy sorry

11:32 am

thanks for asking NB-i usually lurk & try to get the words

11:33 am

We're used to it, Joanne ;) besides, it's preferable to Korea...the times I've visited back home it's been horribly humid.

11:33 am

That's very restrained, Scribe - I treat the grid as an optional extra ;)

11:34 am

i don't think i could handle it Nancy

11:34 am

we have the best or the best weather i think

no luck with that last ji. help? I have J+small hotel, and the plural. what's the other?

11:35 am

hm. so i'll feel at home in a Korean Summer. Good to know.

11:35 am

I don't really mind whether it's hot or cold, but I like dramatic weather. Really hot sun or raging storms or hail or snow. Fun weather! I'll happily run outside and get drenched if it's raining hard enough.

ji4, like the italian hello ci**

11:36 am

Playing in the rain is fun. Playing in a thunderstorm, however, is dangerous and foolhardy.

ty, guernsey!

11:36 am

11:37 am

we rarely get hail here, thankfully

4:20 pm

i do not like his fiance

4:20 pm

but, whatev, i will not be marrying her

4:20 pm

ah. That is a tough pill to swallow.

4:21 pm

true but makes getting together a rough time.

well, maybe you will find something new and different about her this time, though knowing you kje, you have given her lots of opportunities to be the new and different likeable brother fiance.

4:22 pm

she is odd, but my main concern is that i do not believe she is as in love with him as he with her... and who wants that for their bro?

My problem is that I like my brother in law better than my sister....

4:23 pm

LOL red - been there too!

4:23 pm

Oh KJE and Red.

4:23 pm

I have one like that Red. Had one like KJE's too but they are divorced now

4:23 pm

but then so is my sister.

My Sister and Bro in law have been having their troubles, but...

Wow kje. thats one huge get together.

4:24 pm

all the sibs coming Sunday?

4:24 pm

I am sorry to hear that Red.

Ahh, like kje, I just remember its not my marriage.

6:03 pm

I need to find a few more words so I can give myself permission to look at the list...

Can I admit, that now with 28 left the grid is a little bit less intelectually satisfying, and now it is just annoying?

in4??? Is it a fish?

6:05 pm

Perha4/6 I should do a story of clues today.In my op 7/32,this grid was very hard.This grid gave me such a headach that I had to take an as 7/32 because my head was sp4/5ing.It drove me insa4/4. I was about to pull out my ha4/5 out trying to find some of these words.Some puzzles bring out the worst beha7/48 in me. There are a he4/6 of words in here I have never heard of.I had to sp5/12 for some clues.But I'm done so I will not let grid ru 4/5 my day.Now I am going to get out of these je 4/9s and into my PJs.

Jesus? Or another loss?

6:20 pm

Hello AngelSong! How are you doing? Welcome to grid!

6:21 pm

hi, Min

6:22 pm

yw KrisE

6:23 pm

It is very sad, Angelsong. I read the John version today.

6:23 pm

Kris, I came across a medical account of the crucifixion. Chilling

6:24 pm

As the saying goes, It's Friday...but Sunday's coming.

6:24 pm

"Sunday's on the way!"

6:24 pm

Amen

6:25 pm

Until I saw the Passion of the Christ, it never dawned on my just how busy Satan was on Good Friday.

6:25 pm

As always.

helo

6:26 pm

Hi herin!

6:26 pm

Hi herinfernallady! How are you? Welcome to the grid

HI MIni.

HI Krise and Angel

6:27 pm

hi, Herin

any clues for the he

I was just looking at my old primary school information on facebook and I am a little disappointed in the way others have treated someone over a negative comment about the school> I can't blame her taking her kid out of there

6:30 pm

Oh my herin

yo krise i was at dinner so what was your clue for the he

6:32 pm

did you he4 the food on your plate?

I would love to say something to this mum in person but she has blocked messages. I would also love to call out the names that bullied me whilst going there, the fact that my friends friends kids go there and they are being bullied but you can't because it would not achieve anything other than being a troll

6:33 pm

Near here a 15-yr-old committed suicide after being bullied at school, and now the bullies are being prosecuted

I have seen that in the news so so sad

yes i did and i already got that one

6:34 pm

yes, it is.

that is terrible

6:34 pm

spongebob, do you have the he4 to the throne?

no thanks

Ok I have just smooshed my elbow into my hot hot oven. ut aloe on it but man does it still hurt. Ice was tooo painful ouch. :(

OUCHIE Red

6:35 pm

OW, red!

oooh that would hurt

Red do you have pure aloe vera

Well herin considering I cut it off the plant I think its pure.

6:35 pm

I feel your pain redturtlehead!

Kris Many many years ago I said that the biggest cults in USA schools was not the little ''freaks'' in black but the cheerleaders and jocks that get away with everything now doesn't suprise me in the least.

Ok good Red. But still owies

I think now with19 left and pain, I shall being getting the list.

6:37 pm

You've earned the list, red. I've been on it for a while now.

I really think the bigger problem is not any group of children but a lack of parenting these days and a lack of school people getting any clue whats going on.

6:37 pm

I got story of clues in my profile today redturtlehead

yes, Min I used it, it gve me one word I didnt have, thanks!

6:38 pm

Oh, sorry it was not more helpful. Good luck with list.

6:39 pm

That's so true, Red---parents not teaching their kids to be respectful + responsible. Parents not supervising their kids well enough. And school administrations don't want publicity about drug or violence problems.

6:39 pm

Hello Scrabbler! How are you doing? Welcome to grid!

i just spent a ridiculous amount of time looking for he5. mind your plurals people!!

Red I say this complete with sarcasim. I thought that we were meant to do their parenting for them Have our video games violent movies banned all because some parent cant say NO to their kid

6:39 pm

I am on call again (2 nights in a row) and want it to be 8 AM tomorrow.

6:40 pm

Hello Good Enough! That happens to me all of the time

I find it so amusing that a 19 year old class mate thinks like me due to the way she has been brought up. Even though there is close to a generation difference she still thinks that most of her peers are rude and disrespectful

6:40 pm

I do not like this grid. Not with a fox, not on a box, I do not like this grid, Sam I Am.

6:41 pm

I'm with you, Scrabbler. I don't like it either.

I also think Herin that is is very very difficult to be a parent these days and a lot of people do their best and their best just isnt maybe that good.

6:41 pm

It's definitely a braintwister Scrabbler,but it's doable

Hi Scrabbs!

6:42 pm

I estimate that 25% of parents that I see in my office want to have respectful, responsible kids and work hard to create good future adults.

6:42 pm

good morning - 23 left

6:43 pm

Red, do you do the games on Quote Puzzler? There is a player named Red there.

6:43 pm

Hi Tanja. I need to find 41.

O yes I would not want to raise a kid today. it is so hard. too many choices and not much off buttons.

6:43 pm

schools have a lot to answer for - I ws glad I home schooled in the later years

Hi Tanja. Hi Scrabbler.

6:43 pm

taken me ages to get to where I am :)

Speaking of kids Scrabbler how is Bunny Tucker doing?

6:44 pm

helloherin

6:44 pm

If I were a parent now I would homeschool and be part of a homeschool association.

I dont play them, is she a redturtlle head?

6:44 pm

Tucker needed a full week to get better and he has been fine since.

6:44 pm

She/he is just Red.

I'd probably send my kids to a Quaker school, like I went to and President Obamas kids are going to....

minveryork i don't get the beha--- and sp---- parts of your story

6:45 pm

Yes, I like religious based schooling too.

We had a very strict beha**** code. no hitting or you were expelled.

6:46 pm

Geez, it took me 10 min to see the 2nd an4.

and there really wasnt hitting.

behav*** isn't in the puzzle

I used to like to bite.

6:46 pm

I'm in the same boat, Scrabbler. After monkeying for any possible letter combo, I lose the ability to recognize regular words

yes but if you take off the Be it is sponge.

6:47 pm

and use the British spelling

THat is great about Tucker Scrabbler

if you spell it in a British way..

6:47 pm

Aha, TY, Kris!

6:47 pm

love homeschooling and scouts

i'm not in england

6:47 pm

Thanks ot Min - she clued me. :)

how

I could not do homeschooling givent hat I would need to work, and while I support homeschooling, it isnt for all families.

6:48 pm

I am always SO impressed with homeschooled kids--respectful, responsible, hard-working, self-motivated...

U need this letter

6:48 pm

hmmm....I thought I hated O words. Turns out I hate J words with a burning passion

thanks i got it

6:48 pm

Nice clue, herin :)

here is a clue for the p4

6:49 pm

I am still working on the A's, jmitch....ap, as, and av

lol mitch

I am disappointed with the fact that school kids are reading books in year 10 that I read in year 7 that is serious backwoods English

6:50 pm

Evening all.

hi GGA

6:50 pm

Hi peach

6:50 pm

I just realized that the lentil sweet potato stew in the crock pot is supposed to have fresh parsley in it. Have to go chop parsley. bbl

Hi peach!

6:51 pm

May I please have a clue for pa5-12? Thanks.

6:51 pm

scrabbler, are you one that takes one tile at a time?

Kris! I want the recipe for that.

KRis just lob it in there and it will fall of the stem (I was about to say bone)

what about the bottom a

6:51 pm

I've tried that method but ADHD kicks in and I end up scattershot across the entire grid

6:52 pm

Nope, nrkii does that, and maybe Hurshy. I go randomly and grab what I see. Then I focus on one tile at a time. Then I go to the list. Then I beg profusely. Then I give up and quit if I pass halfway.

RED: http://www.taste.com.au/ I swear by this site. Especially Super Food Ideas and Aus Good Taste and Taste.com.au recipes. If you need translations just message me via FB

6:53 pm

i go random until I'm forced to concentrate on end tiles.....then I beg....then I list...then return to beg!

6:53 pm

I need a break. I have found 3 words in 30 minutes.

if i do it that methodically it stops being fun and starts being work :(

any clues for the bottom a

Scrabbler, you have a very scientific measure to do the grid.

Darn it all, my arm hurts.

Red that site has lentil recipes

my emt friend say "cool cloth, cool cloth, cool cloth" until the burn stops

thanks.

I may use it, I tried ice but it seemed to hurt worse.

I jsut want to finish grid.

no lotions or anything until later because it seals the burn in

6:57 pm

I tend to do the grid like you Scrabbs - find it is the most fun that way

no ice. like you said it hurts too much. just cool cloths. when they get warm rinse under cool water and apply again

the only thing I put on it is the aloe. it helped.

6:58 pm

cold wter for 20 minutes and then the aloe - repeat regularly and take a couple of panadol and drink lots of water as well

I'm so angry at myself, as its going to really not feel good in the swimming pool!

6:58 pm

and HUGS as it will be very painful

good. do what works for you. for me it might be a stiff drink.

6:59 pm

yyou might find being in the swimming pool will help as the air wont get to it

I cant really see it as its on theback of my elbow, but I think it is not a very bad burn..may be better by tomorrow

7:01 pm

well I am using lickety and dictionary now:(

7:01 pm

hawk - when are you going to join pro

8:13 pm

thats a tough one - 3 vowels in the middle - let me think

8:13 pm

pa + vowel + the fruit b--ana

8:13 pm

pa 5/12 is pa + M*** Streets (Kurt Russell Movie) gape

8:13 pm

good clue Min

8:14 pm

oh that was a better clue

8:14 pm

you too hawk

8:14 pm

I am 39&I still have to coax myself to go to bed when I am up late babbling on a work night Momneedshelp.

8:15 pm

Thanks Momneedshelp

8:15 pm

I will join when I am ready to loosen the purse strings one day, I suppose. Is it worthwhile if I use the lickety site while I do the puzzle?

8:15 pm

I have trouble coaxing everyone in my house except for my husband

8:15 pm

What a coincidence, I'm 39 too. Got about 8 months before that fateful day..

8:16 pm

I just joined myself - I understand - but then I thought *hey self its only $14.95 for a lifetime - I spend more on a bottle of wine* - its well worth it

8:16 pm

Thanks, Min. That is fireworks....see y'all at the flip.

8:16 pm

congrats peach

8:17 pm

My hubby also needs coaxing to go to bed when he is up partying. He will stay up until 2:00 in the morning.

8:17 pm

I need to loosen the purse strings on the wine, too. I have a local store that sells "inexpensive gems"- all bottles under $14

8:17 pm

with I could say I was 39 but got you beat by my 13 year old

8:17 pm

Congratulations Momneedshelp on going pro! Hooray!

8:18 pm

I take it once I go pro, I can start being paid to play this? :)

8:18 pm

LOL hawknoah!

8:18 pm

Thanks Min - I am loving this game and the folks here the most

8:18 pm

I am willing to give up my amateur status if there's $$$ involved

8:19 pm

If I got paid to play this,I'd be a millionaire hawknoah

8:19 pm

We will stand behind you when you contact the owners

8:19 pm

Seems like "professional" would imply we could make a career out of it!

8:20 pm

ok time to work my magic on my daughter.. thanks all for the help & have a great night

8:20 pm

hawknoah,not only is it a coincidence that you're 39 but it is also a coincidence that my last name starts w/Hawk.What's the meaning of your name hawknoah

8:20 pm

Goodbye hawknoah!I will see you tomorrow in the log

8:21 pm

it's just an email alias that's stuck with me over the years for no real reason. My wife created it when we first got an AOL account

8:21 pm

it's her initials + my name (Noah)

8:21 pm

time to say good night if no one needs anymore help - see you all tomorrow

8:21 pm

See, if you went pro I would know that you are a man

8:21 pm

my shadow looks somewhat masculine, though!

8:21 pm

Goodnight Noah and MinHawk

8:21 pm

Bye Momneedshelp! I will see you tomorrow in the log

8:22 pm

that you will! Poof

8:22 pm

I may not be back tomorrow, heading to the inlaws who may not be too impressed if I spend the day in front of the computer. maybe if I get up early enough..

8:23 pm

Well since people are leaving, then I'm leaving as well.

8:23 pm

ok until next time!

8:31 pm

hello babble friends!

8:39 pm

Heya Trifs

8:40 pm

whoops - hi torgone! sorry, was lost in the grid there for a sec

8:41 pm

No worries ..

8:41 pm

8:43 pm

That's a great costume!

8:43 pm

I cannot believe how great it turned out! I think I am finally ready to say I am good at sewing

8:45 pm

I think you're great at sewing

8:45 pm

thanks. not so great at babbling today, unfortunately!

8:46 pm

Hi Trifioso! I got story of clues in my profile if needed

8:46 pm

ooo, I love how you write those, min!

8:47 pm

Thanks Trifioso!

8:47 pm

Oh well. You can bask in the glow of smugness about how talented you are.

8:47 pm

Tor, dear, what are your Easter plans? making a big dinner for the kiddos?

8:59 pm

I am off to watch General Hospital.I will be back later

8:59 pm

bye min dear!

9:01 pm

Hello everyone.

9:02 pm

hello gwen! COOL scan! I have never seen one of twins

9:03 pm

Yes Trifs .. Will probably make a ham or something .. though I made a ham about a week ago .. They were on sale ..

9:03 pm

That's my grandbabies! They'll be 28 weeks gestational age on Sunday.

9:03 pm

Heya gwen ..

9:04 pm

so interesting, how they each have their own "rooms" so to speak

9:04 pm

And they are trying to make an early appearance. Daughter-in-law has been hospitalized for a week, and looks to stay there until delivery. Hopefully not for a few more weeks, but you never know.

9:04 pm

Ham sounds good! Do you guys eat lamb?

9:04 pm

----> will say a prayer for her, gwen. are they nearby?

9:05 pm

They just moved to San Antonio. I'm in NC. But they are closer to us now than when they lived in Hawaii!

9:06 pm

yes, but a bummer they aren't closer. I am sure you would LOVE to help with the little one, whilst she is in her confinement, as the victorians said....

9:06 pm

Hope it turns out okay gwen

9:06 pm

Thanks for the prayers. Anyone on Facebook can join a group set up for them: "Prayer Warriors for Khloe and Joah" (the twins' names)

9:06 pm

I have not tried to make lamb yet ..

9:06 pm

hmmm - a boy and a girl then?

9:06 pm

hmmm - a boy and a girl then?

9:07 pm

sorry - not sure what's up with the double posts

9:07 pm

Yep. girl=Khloe Reese. boy=Joah Scott.

9:07 pm

nice names!

9:07 pm

"gwen" would have been nice too.....

9:08 pm

"Khlo-Jo" is my nickname to refer to them both. Not sure the kids really appreciate that! Well, Reese is my maiden name, so that counts.

9:08 pm

Khlo-Jo! too funny! and props on the Reese

9:08 pm

Khlo-Jo! too funny! and props on the Reese

9:09 pm

aaargh

9:10 pm

Hello Fellow Babblers. How are you tonight?

9:10 pm

hey there nef!

9:12 pm

Hi Trifio! Gwenski, I always called the wrong name when talking to my kids, so they joke that their name was "Bu-Ann" instead of Bob and Anne

9:13 pm

My mom would sometimes include the dog's name when trying to call the kids! Now that's really bad!!

9:13 pm

did you ever hear bill cosby's riff on names? He said when he was a child, he thought his name was "goddammit" and his brother's name was "jesus christ" as that is what their dad always yelled - "jesus christ, turn that down! goddammit stop making that noise!"

9:14 pm

I think I heard that one. And I remember the one he did about feeding them cake for breakfast.

9:14 pm

Oh, My Trifio!

hello all 33 to go now

9:15 pm

I have called my kids the dog's name, and vice versa. Always makes the kids ROLL laughing! The dog doesn't find it as funny

9:15 pm

hahaha trif

9:16 pm

Heh ..

I have called my husband by my son's name and visa versa...they just sit there stunned

9:16 pm

my neighbor just had a child, and they named it after the dad....

9:18 pm

LOL! When I get upset about something, I'll be reading them the riot act (they are now 30 and 27, BTW) and I say something REALLY stupid by accident. Sort of like: "Why is it you never can comb the coat?" makes NO sense at all; and they stare at me and burst out laughing. I get so MAD at that!

9:19 pm

comb the coat???

9:19 pm

it is pretty funny

done that too Nef...then steam comes out your ears right?

9:20 pm

yeah. Makes no sense at all and *that* sort of stuff pops out whenever I'm upset

9:21 pm

LOL! I once had finished bathing a patient at work and was settling him for sleep and I told him I was putting "2 heads under his pillow!"

9:21 pm

when my son was little, he was really, really mad at me, and didn't have the language to express how mad he was, and in absolute fury he said "YOU ARE A REAAAAAALLLYYY BAD ACTRESS!" and I about fell over laughing, which made him even madder

can't get the last u one...a clue any one? have the torn ref....and the win one too...just cant see it

9:22 pm

I meant 2 pillows under his head. (He was very ill, and I was trying so hard to help him relax and rest)

you must of been tired huh?

9:23 pm

do you have the plural of the torn one?

9:23 pm

Un + a marriage is a UN*** of 2 people

yes...

9:23 pm

GO, TOR! You can do it!

10:16 pm

10:17 pm

ty gremlinn

10:17 pm

great clue, gremlin! Thanks

10:17 pm

If aj5 is a word, then so should be it without the a- in front, it seems. Not consistent, Enable!

10:18 pm

grem, the def says that IS a word, but I guess enable doesn't know or care

10:19 pm

Go torgone go!

10:19 pm

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. It's as if "asymmetry" were a word but "symmetry" weren't.

10:19 pm

Hello all! I am back from watching "General Hospital".

10:19 pm

hello min

10:19 pm

Rather, "asymmetry" being in some word list and "symmetry" not.

11:12 pm

Hi MetFan :)

11:21 pm

Why oh why did I start this grid?

11:22 pm

Hi JC :)

11:22 pm

it's tough jc

11:22 pm

4 to go

11:22 pm

Hi Jilli - fancy seeing you here? ;)

11:22 pm

Don't worry, it'll be gone soon -- flip in a few minutes.

11:22 pm

gogogo harp!

11:22 pm

So I've noticed, Jane.

11:23 pm

In over half an hour, yes...

11:23 pm

we have to stop meeting like this, JC

11:23 pm

Indeed.

11:23 pm

metfan--Leslie Gore? Not someone I think about often!

11:23 pm

I think met left, harp

11:24 pm

ok

11:27 pm

it's teensy. is it doable? I so deserve a good grid. *hugs everyone and blows kisses at JC*

11:28 pm

hi stid!

11:28 pm

you'll need lots of clues stid

11:29 pm

oh well, I dived in fast. up to to ten already.

11:29 pm

Well, hello stidmama - that's quite a greeting! :) It's doable if you're not me, apparently...

11:29 pm

It's doable for YOU, maybe, stid! a few words which were new to gremlin -- need I say more?

11:29 pm

gah. I am doomed, jill -- unless the "new" words are anything about teaching theory?

11:30 pm

want a clue for aj5?

11:30 pm

JC, when Mother and I visited Jill, she made us a SPECTACULAR recipe you had sent, rice and veggies and red wine. It was DELISH.

11:30 pm

allo peeps! It's great to see Miss Jilli AND the wonderful Sir J.C....and stidmama, Jane

11:30 pm

I just made another batch so I'll have lots to freeze.

11:30 pm

Yes, stid - that's one of my favourites. :)

11:31 pm

Glad you enjoyed it...

11:31 pm

yes please jill, clues are lovely.

11:31 pm

Hi pav :)

11:31 pm

good idea, jill. I might make some this week and see what the fellas think.

11:31 pm

hey PAV

11:31 pm

aj + ***n the Terrible

11:31 pm

Erm, PAV3 - I have never been knighted. Just so you know. ;) Hello to you, too...

11:31 pm

it has to do with Jainism

11:32 pm

In my world, I get to knight anyone I please...no offense intended...

11:32 pm

thanks for those clues.

11:32 pm

Why would you think I was offended? :/

11:32 pm

down to 63

11:32 pm

yw

11:32 pm

do we have a list today?

11:32 pm

I'm flattered you think I should be. ;)

11:33 pm

Yes, Lickety came across

11:33 pm

*adjusts JC's noble tiara* *wicked mama grin*

11:33 pm

brb

11:33 pm

11:33 pm

11:33 pm

11:33 pm

HAHAHA. Yes, quite - tiara. ;)

11:34 pm

Awww, well thank you PAV! :)

11:35 pm

is the AS fishy?

11:35 pm

btw, before I change my icon, it's a clue for ha7/36

11:35 pm

Thank you for that, Jilli. :)

11:35 pm

rather, stid -- headache remedy

11:35 pm

I still won't make it though.

11:36 pm

thanks jill and twice over!

11:36 pm

never mind, JC!

11:36 pm

Thrice, even.

11:36 pm

the ha7/48 usually comes after be

11:36 pm

and I haven't even begun! I'll wait patiently for the next one...

11:36 pm

(Brit spelling)

11:37 pm

now I'm going for a wee bit!

11:37 pm

beheaded, jill???

11:38 pm

down to 48...

11:38 pm

Miss Jilli., while you were on your forced vaca, I managed to succeed at not falling off the treadmill, and the good doc...all two years old of him, said I am normally abnormal...the tick is a tick and otherwise I'm fine...

11:38 pm

Tick, PAV?

11:39 pm

oh! I got the clue!!! LOL

11:39 pm

slight anomaly on a resting EKG sent me to the cardiologist for an in depth look-see

11:40 pm

Ah. I have to get checked soon. :/

11:40 pm

You're not the only abnormal one. :P

11:40 pm

is the JA 5 fishy?

11:41 pm

I like knowing I've a "condition" that will preclude me from engaging in death-defying activities

11:41 pm

gah. yes, sushi-fishy! LOL

11:41 pm

Ah. Perhaps I do, which will mean I won't be repeating my skydive anytime soon. I had already decided that at the time, though. :P

11:41 pm

I have a condition that prevents the same thing, PAV. It's called "cowardice" ... I am highly risk-averse!

11:42 pm

Yes. I have been a parachuting poofter...

11:42 pm

how about the na 5?

11:42 pm

I am not terribly "risk-averse", I'd just rather not get excited about anything labor intensive...like houseowrk

11:43 pm

I actually am, but I risked it for a biscuit. I was willing, for a shilling...

11:43 pm

I've been ballooning twice...first time involuntary, the second was a gift...very peaceful, once you get over the height issue...

11:44 pm

just visiting Jill is about as scary as I can handle. I am such a scaredy-cat.

11:44 pm

I will NEVER sky-dive. Not this acrophobiac!

11:44 pm

Jill is scary?

11:44 pm

I don't even like getting up a step on a ladder.

11:44 pm

no, travel is scary. Being away from home is scary.

11:44 pm

11:44 pm

Oh...

11:44 pm

11:45 pm

Well, thanks, stid, I'm suuure. ;)

11:45 pm

na5 -- dbl the cons in the back of your neck

11:45 pm

to get over it ( for a while) I went to Six Flags Magic Maountaain in CA for aweekend with friends..we hit up every "coaster type" ride there was...I had to take my glasses off so I couldn't see what was happening...much easier to deal with the unknown than the visually known...

11:45 pm

we didn't lose power, but there was snow today, from home to the college, was just glad it didn't stick at the elevation I live at.

11:55 pm

I had a lot of help, Jill, and listed WAY early today.

11:56 pm

11:56 pm

So stid, will you send me some of those pix?

11:56 pm

hope everyone is okay -- the oil refinery in Anacortes had an explosion late last night (not storm related, I think). so it has been a hard day here in Washington.

11:56 pm

Mother took them all jill -- I didn't take my camera out once.

11:57 pm

I hope it's a small grid. I am going to try to fit in some babble between studying and visiting with riemann who is spending tomorrow with us.
