12:20 am

There are some interesting words tonight....a little variety with the m's and v's.

12:21 am

any word with 4 Es is interesting

12:22 am

4 single Es, that is

12:22 am

True enough, I surprisingly got the 2 big words first, when it's an "Sh" or "Th" large word, or the like, it takes me forever!

12:24 am

grem can you help with the 10 please?

12:25 am

It's the plural of the ve9 if you have it

12:25 am

ve 9: forcefulness (pluralize, then)

12:25 am

nope dont have that either

12:26 am

the adjective form, ve8, is a phantom here

12:34 am

142 words, yeah, 142 words.

12:34 am

...wopner is on..

12:34 am

No more than George Lucas yelling, "HOW IS JEDI NOT A WORD?"

12:35 am

Proper noun, Mr. Lucas sir.

12:35 am

lol, I still try and guess if every time.

12:35 am

Among...erm...other considerations.

12:35 am

I actually kind of like it that there are no celebrities on Babble. No Ashton Kutcher, no Justin Bieber

12:36 am

Haha, Justin Bieber would be horrible at this.

12:36 am

me: "ac + greek letter" Bieber: "Huh, what's greek mean?"

12:36 am

He'd be like, "Baby? Baby? Nope, not in the puzzle, well I'm done!"

12:37 am

a lot of our English babblers would love to see Jordan to the grid

12:37 am

I think her breasts would prevent her from reaching the keyboard.

12:37 am

not know who justin bieber is..

12:37 am

The last time I saw ca5 in the grid, it actually did ca5 off the western wall. Not doing that this time

12:38 am

I only know because I stumbled across a random YouTube video clip of him

12:38 am

Apparently, in an interview, he didn't know what the word "German" meant.

12:39 am

wow he sounds like George Bush

12:39 am

phantom nemesis (and nemeses)

12:39 am

And emesis/tmesis, too.

12:40 am

Those all go together often.

12:40 am

Only Justin, being 12 years old has an excuse! lol

12:40 am

Along with a bunch like miosis, meiosis, osmosis, etc.

12:41 am

.. no really George has the mind of a 12 year old..

12:41 am

hehe

12:41 am

you mean GWB or his daddy?

12:41 am

GWB

12:42 am

daddy has some smarts

12:42 am

His daddy is sharp as a tack

12:42 am

I disagreed with nearly all his politics, but I respect his intelligence

12:42 am

I think GWB got stuck in the birth canal for too long

12:43 am

Crom, one of the gods in Conan's world, is in the grid

12:43 am

When I saw there was a 10 I was betting it would end in -sive, but nope.

12:44 am

12:45 am

12:45 am

ra 9, compound word

12:47 am

and good morning/evening all I doubt it ruru, you are presuming she has a brain :)

12:47 am

ro 8 and ? the other 8?

12:47 am

mo 8

12:47 am

all that air pressure must amount to something FM?

12:47 am

mo8/45 pl of the 7

12:47 am

both 8s are plurals of 7s (and anagrams, too!)

12:48 am

"Why do you worry about the **** in your brother's eye, when there is a log in your own?" Cuz I'm stupid, that's why!

12:48 am

Her body has to concentrate on keeping her enlarged appendages in the right place.

12:48 am

and if you insert a vowel in the mo7, you get a Robert Jordan character

12:50 am

fm?

12:50 am

her boobies ruru :)

12:50 am

do you think she sleeps on her back?...just thinking about that...

12:50 am

I really didn't look at FMitch saying there was an mo8, before I found the mo8, I promise!

12:51 am

we believe you Doug.

12:52 am

Tis an interesting grid today.

12:52 am

Now there's something you don't see every day...a pair of unrelated 8's which are anagrams of each other

12:54 am

thanks Douglas

12:55 am

my favorite 8-letter anagram set: integral, triangle, relating, altering

12:56 am

plus maybe one or two others

12:56 am

12:56 am

2:08 am

Oh wtg sprite, well done!!!!!!

2:09 am

and... no ill effects, neither yesterday eve nor today. Feeling ok. Trying to induce faster growth by looking at plant pots.

2:09 am

Pottering around in the garden is one of the most benefical and calming things.

2:11 am

I have got so much pleasure out of just having a garden - even over the winter.

2:11 am

the last few days I feel like I finally made it over that dark brick wall. I started to write again, am active in the house again, even gardening. Haven't felt like this in many many years.

2:12 am

am so happy for you you finally have a garden, FM. It is so great to hear you enjoying it :)

2:12 am

2:22 am

Thank you, sprite <giggle>

2:22 am

2:30 am

morning everyone. could I please have a lcue for the i on the bottom row, it's my last one for NBT

2:31 am

hi Katie, very big

2:32 am

ty sprite, I needed that too

2:33 am

2:33 am

wtg jilli

2:33 am

2:34 am

i am hopeless, i have that one sprite and I realise the other comes from the other i

2:34 am

lol if that makes one hopeless, I should give up now

2:34 am

In the Little Rascals movie, the stupid bully was named Woim. He's in the grid

2:35 am

I loved the original lil rascals

2:36 am

2:37 am

LOL Sprite- it s his birthday tomorrow - I finally got a painting off ebay- which I love and hope he does!

2:38 am

sometimes pneumonia can be hard to treat. Did they make a... whatsitcalled... so they can find out which bacteria are causing it?

2:38 am

3:01 am

ie: 16 year old jessica watson completing her around the world solo voyage

3:02 am

ra6/7: I start running and you ra6 :)

3:02 am

don't think I would have the courage as a parent to let my 16 year old do it

3:02 am

she did amazingly

3:02 am

wtg for her and she must have learned so much that no school or parent could ever teach

3:03 am

4:32 am

4:32 am

hello everybody. John just left and I'm still wiping away my tears, going out to lunch for consolation and then will seen everybody later

4:32 am

thankyou thankyou

4:32 am

see*

4:32 am

awwwwww ruby

4:32 am

Ruby, who is john?

dang it sorry I have to lurk for a min

4:33 am

however, the visit was fine, he pitched in and cleaned out my studio, made me throw away 1000's of photos and "stuff", I like my DIL much more than before, and they're off to Italy/.

4:34 am

Sandy, John is my son (see proud mom's profile*) and he lives in Texas, so I only see him every year or so

4:34 am

Oh, now I understand, that is sad , I would be the same except worse (I have shallow tearducts)

4:35 am

Ruby, I have been watching the Italian Tour

4:35 am

yay for the Tour!

4:36 am

I look forward to the Tour de France every year; it's a 3-week French lesson as well as being beautiful and interesting and NOT boring!

4:36 am

it looks tough, lots of mud, they all looked like they were covered with manure

4:37 am

and last year the individual time trial went around "our" lake and past our garden and through our village

4:37 am

its giving me a 'fix' to get through to the French Tour

4:37 am

too funny about the mud; it has rained for two weeks or so, I guess in Italy, too

4:38 am

BTW, Sandy, Vinokurov is my least favorite rider!

4:38 am

Cadel Evans (who I think is a bit of a prig) won a stage

4:38 am

Sastra fell off

4:38 am

but I like him better than Vino or Cancellara!

4:38 am

was he badly injured?

4:38 am

I will pay more attention to Vinokurov

4:39 am

Not injured - he landed on the grass with some others

4:39 am

didn't even rip his shorts i think

4:39 am

Vino is an obnoxious di** who used to dope! was banned for 2 years and he hated Lance

4:40 am

yes, he's horrid!

4:40 am

how many years have you been watching, Sandy?

4:40 am

Who? Vin or cadel

4:40 am

I've only watched since we moved to France; this will be my 12th

4:40 am

lots of years now Ruby , can't remember

4:41 am

Vino; as far as anyone can tell, Cadel may be a prig but he's clean LOL

4:41 am

Vino'shorrid

4:41 am

yes!

4:41 am

I haven't yet found anyone to utterly transfer my affections to after Richard Virenque retired

4:41 am

he punched a reporter in one Tour de France - I like that sort of thing (lol)

4:41 am

Is Levi Leipheimer in the Tour d'Italy?

4:42 am

not sure haven't paid so much attention

4:42 am

I always liked him]

4:42 am

He once fell in the Dauphine Libere race right in our village.

4:42 am

did you run out and offer assist Ruby?

4:42 am

my husband buys me the guides to the Tour. All the French women I know think I'm crazy for watching and being a fan

4:43 am

hahah

4:43 am

I really like it as you know

4:43 am

have to go now, but will be back after lunch ((hugs))

sorry about that sigh

Hello

5:08 am

hi herin

5:09 am

holy crap..i got the 9/10

Hi hAndree

Does anyone know about MYOB?

5:11 am

yes i do herin, use it daily

Thank gods. I need to know where I can find a free trial of MYOB 17 or failing that does MYOB 19 convert to 17 if needed

5:13 am

is there a 19, i am on 18.5

I have 19 as a trial but the school PC's run on 17 and I am desperate

5:15 am

I don't know how you could get a trial without ringing them as when you upgrade i don't know how you could do it without joining

Dang. Do you know that if I use 19 if I can see it on 17?

I wouldn't be begging if my teacher didn't boot me out of her class because I was doing my work

5:16 am

herin 19 will be exactly the same except for the tax tables which have pretty much changed each year

Ok but do you know that if I put the data in 19 it would talk to 19?

5:20 am

put your data in and try working with it, put some dummy cheques or wages in and see how it goes, i will hang around on line so i can tell you how to delete what you enter

It is ok I have to have 17 at school I will do that and then go tommorrow and see if it works. I will save it as a totally new file under 19

thank you for that suggestion.

I will test it now. Laters

5:25 am

bye herin

5:47 am

got to go with 19 left

5:50 am

Just caught a wood pidgeon trying to nest in my rosemary bush and it has broken a big branch off = third of the plant gone now :((

8:37 am

on the upside I guess I will have to buy some lamb and marinade it.

8:38 am

Silly pigeons..they build such shoddy nests. The rosemary will survive, nothing kills it. I get sick of giving mine drastic haircuts

8:39 am

Oh that is encouraging to hear.

8:40 am

HAVe been planting up contaiers and pots today - back is tired but much enjoyment.

8:41 am

You have never grown it? Keep cutting it to keep it compact and a nice shape, it will grow/spread from the cut so you can be quite savage

8:41 am

Haven't had a garden in 13 years lynxx so am feeling like a newbie.

8:43 am

I have been going to chiro once a month for the last couple of years to keep on top of a somewhat dodgy back. Been going to gym for a couple of months now and feel so much stronger in the back, now going to push out chiro to a 6-8 weeks

8:44 am

Going to the gym is good - get everything working and well done you.

8:45 am

all those endomorphines being released can't be bad :)

8:45 am

8:46 am

8:47 am

I hear you lynxxx, things ain't quite the same.

8:49 am

8:50 am

What is the icon theme? Smiling cats?

8:50 am

Hi All - laughs and smiles - sure could use some of those

8:50 am

9:55 am

i work today,i may not tomorrow,but i have my wife and my son and a way will always be found

9:55 am

9:56 am

Speaking of work - it is calling my name - must dive in before I get caught having fun - have a great day.

Well, Crossy, I used to work for people like your former self! I was totally stressed out

9:58 am

10:00 am

10:00 am

*checks Nancy Boy to be sure he's eating properly* hello all!

10:00 am

hi stid

10:00 am

hmmm...well I very much enjoy my job, but it's not exactly a career. Couldn't be a city boy though - I'm too short for most suits to fit properly ;)

10:01 am

hi, Stid! yes, I'm still in one piece ;) getting lonely stuck in here all alone though!

10:02 am

find joy in each day,do something that scares you once a day,give joy to others and take the time to stop and smell the roses and reset your zen/wa/chi at least once a day

10:02 am

driving scares me

10:02 am

lol watching others drive scares me lol

10:02 am

10:03 am

10:03 am

Back to finish this pup. Hiya, NB, sciencegeek and Judy, and others.

10:03 am

howdy judi

10:03 am

Hi, Judy and Judi :)

10:03 am

so, I guess someone will have to fill me in on the Friday meeting drama.....wondering if I need to clean out my room

10:03 am

Hi Crossy, Judi, Stid, {{NB}}, Geek

10:03 am

no coffee here, not "up and at 'em" today, trying to decide if it's worth it to go to the lectures today -- I teach the next three days, and highly unmotivated to be in student-mode today

10:04 am

hey Judy

10:04 am

howdy stiddles;))

10:04 am

thankfully all's quiet at work today

10:04 am

science, if you have to cut hours and so leave this job, will you just focus more on the jewelry?

10:04 am

hey cross. how's the apnea?

10:04 am

Can you conference in on the meeting on your cell phone, science?

10:05 am

Stid - yes I will! I think I can do okay!

10:05 am

I should grade papers now, even if I end up going to school later.

10:05 am

better stidmama,im upt to 4 hours a night with the cpap machine

10:05 am

No, I am taking husband for some minor surgery and will be in the hospital

10:05 am

clue for ca 6/24 please

10:05 am

I think you can, too -- a little scary to be self-employed, imho, but you have talent!

10:05 am

wonderful, cross! *happy hopeful mama look* is your wife also sleeping better? does the noise of the pump bother her any?

10:05 am

thanks, stid....I have done fairly well with the few festivals this year. If I had Mon-Thurs off, then I can make more inventory and book more shows......

10:06 am

Crossy - can you have surgery for the snoring and apnea?

10:06 am

Have thought about selling your goods online, SG? Etsy.com is a great site for hand crafts.

10:07 am

science,i have ran many shops,stations and stores and have a tad of advice.pick one spot to vend your wares.always keep your hours of operation the same,even if you just stare at the walls for 2 hours a night and advertize,advertize,ADVERTIZE

10:07 am

Matches - auto + opp of girls

10:07 am

not sure science

10:07 am

I have a website and really don't want to pay Etsy!

10:07 am

I am not sure where to advertise Crossy

10:07 am

ty cross got it

10:07 am

*nodding*

10:08 am

why are nodding Judi?

10:08 am

Understanding your position about Etsy.

10:08 am

clue for the en 6/24 please

10:09 am

the local town paper is a good place to start,many fill themselves with flyers,you can get flyers printed up and tey will place them in their papers,the postoffice offers good rates for mail box stuffing of flyers,in 10,000 lots usually,and you can also rent a 1/4 or half page on the back of the local paper

10:09 am

nm got it!

10:09 am

like the in 6/24

10:10 am

I have had an ad in the local rag before - was expensive - and got zero return on it. I look at the festivals as advertising since I have to pay a fee to get a space and I hand out tons of business cards.....

10:10 am

try canada post,i think it used to be 400 dollars for 10,000 flyers

10:11 am

bbs - need to see if someone needs a potty break

10:11 am

Knowing nothing about your business, but wondering if there is a farmer's market around you that you could participate in if you had the time and funds? I adore the jewelry at our market! **pops out again**

10:11 am

they can cover areas faster than you can

10:11 am

Local bulletin boards? - like in grocery stores, local colleges/universities, Craigslist, etc.

10:11 am

help on the i in the fourth column bottom row?

10:11 am

good start judi,but too small

10:12 am

and canada post is nowhere near science... but there are some advertisers that might work in the U.S.

10:12 am

hit the prospective customers big and fast

10:12 am

or u.s postal.i was just generalizing

10:12 am

I was just thinking of the free advertising alternatives.

10:12 am

they work in much the same way

10:13 am

hello I'm back -- sonless and sunless

10:13 am

lol howdy ruby

10:13 am

Hi Ruby

10:13 am

not sure what the rates are for bulk mail these days. If the idea is to generate customers word of mouth campaigns might be more effective at this part of her business life cycle... until she has a larger inventory.

10:13 am

hey ruby (((hugs)))

10:13 am

if you run it online, then through babble you have access to a multitude of cities round the world...send us all a virtual ad that we can print off and stick up around ;)

10:14 am

always remember,in advertising,you get what you pay for

10:14 am

hey Nancy Boy

10:14 am

that's a good idea, Nancy Boy!

10:14 am

and you can set up a site for yourself at freewbs.com they used to let you set up to 8 pages

10:15 am

I did NOT type "hey Nancy Boy"! I swear it! rofl... my figners have a mind of their own

10:15 am

she has a website already, cross!

10:15 am

then get all your friends to google bomb it;0

10:15 am

LOL! It's alright Stid, I hear it on the street all the time ;)

10:15 am

That's how I know she has talent in making jewelry

10:15 am

Hi all

10:16 am

Don't have those I's yet Stid

10:17 am

10:17 am

11:44 am

11:45 am

they have an updated adware but it such a large program it slows down the computer

11:45 am

thats why i use 6.1;)

11:46 am

and do not have it on auto start

11:46 am

go to run/msconfig/startup and uncheck it from auto start menu and only use it when you want

Yum! Call it huh mein and enjoy.

12:17 pm

crossy - carrot cake mix - oh no no - MUST make from scratch.

12:17 pm

or delish lo meinish

12:18 pm

with real carrots and pecans and pineapple and real cream cheese (not the low fat stuff)

12:18 pm

yummein

12:18 pm

This carrot cake mix of which you speak - does it have, well, carrots?

12:19 pm

I doubt it - crossy's note down a ways said he had a cake mix waiting. Does it say carrots in the ingredients crossy?

12:19 pm

oh no, just finished dinner, lurked for a minute and am hungry again!!!

12:20 pm

poor ruby!

12:20 pm

What a strange concept, carrot cake mix. If you have to add carrots there's not much point int he mix, and if you don't add carrots, it isn't a carrot cake, is it?

12:20 pm

Hi Ruby

12:20 pm

i think my carrot cake mix contains carrots. dried, i would presume, though.

12:20 pm

need help wit the he 6/24...not getting wht's clue

12:20 pm

and hi all!

12:21 pm

I suppose they could be dried/dehydrated carrots

12:21 pm

he6/24 - to bully, or king of Troy

12:24 pm

ooh, apparently theres CHEESECAKE in the office today! homemade!

12:25 pm

12:25 pm

speaking of Catholic, he and his wife are off to see the Shroud of Turin! Not him, her!

12:25 pm

12:51 pm

I think their mothers should be punished!

12:51 pm

totally Eva

12:52 pm

I love my mother - in - law and I really dont think it is her fault. I think it was because his Dad was gone (serviceman) for so long. He was not enabled, in fact just the opposite.

12:53 pm

we'll have to talk about this in real mail, mom!

12:53 pm

I keep melting down in the chog!

12:55 pm

1:06 pm

Lol. I am good, Rubes. Nope - airports open again - to my son's disgust. He had to return to the UK this morning!

I think the authorities have changed the degree of ash cloud needed to close the airspace.

NCIS? - me too!

THe last episode left me hanging! Do you want to hear my theory?

3:10 pm

sure

that lawyer lady with the very blue eyues and long dark straight hair that has been popping up all sason, is behind all of this. SHe is the one who is setting the team up to look at Gibbs.

She got the one man freed in Mexico, then she was for some reason appointed an attache to the Mexican government guy, and then....

3:11 pm

-- good possibility

I'm so sure I'm right. but I hope in the end it works out, if Gibbs goes, I think the show goes.

what do youthink?

3:11 pm

I agree

3:12 pm

Don't care for NCIS - LA at all

Yes, I agree the NCIS LA, jst didnt feel right. I think the days of spin offs are over.

4:08 pm

menia

se6 was my first word because i just drove through there this morning

4:08 pm

oops! there goes my error prone self again!! Just monkeying around trying to get it all

4:18 pm

HELLO ALL! Are you still here, mother?

4:19 pm

4:20 pm

wow, it's quiet this afternoon ! (perhaps they saw me coming...)

4:20 pm

4:20 pm

go gitel go!

I'll check the list, maybe i have that one.

4:21 pm

cdo you need the first or the second?

4:21 pm

ooh! I hope so; I already have the office one. And I must start dinner!

4:22 pm

it's either a note or you've used it as the second syllable about six times

4:22 pm

okay, you need the one that ends the im and en 6 words... like a net

4:22 pm

4:23 pm

4:24 pm

Yep...been a while, am doing better than I was! Hope all has been good with you :)

4:25 pm

I am well, overwhelmed with school and kids but otherwise enjoying walking without a cane! Have even been in the garden a bit the last few weeks. I love having soil under my nails again!

4:26 pm

did you finish Gitel?

4:27 pm

ve10?

4:27 pm

am hoping spring arrives soon so I can start to enjoy being outside more..everytime it warms up a little it then decides to snow again!!

4:28 pm

don't have that one yet peg

4:28 pm

peg, do you have the 9?

4:28 pm

i have a ve 9

4:28 pm

no

4:28 pm

yes, there has been strange weather all over! we have had summer-like weather the last couple weeks, but not completely unusual for us this time of year. I just hope our real summer is yet to come. Some years we have a teaser in spring and then need to relight the furnace in july!

4:29 pm

Yes, just not watching the chat. Trying to tackle ra words. Have almost all but one was a brain twister.

4:29 pm

oh duh now I have the 10

4:29 pm

hello Mother. I am at home again.

4:29 pm

Yes, thank you -- I spent so much time looking for the last me and I was missing the last ma!!!!! Ah well, fireworks at last -- time to cook.

4:29 pm

I lost my voice entirely and have a bit of a low-grade fever. THought it better to come and rest so I have a chance of being useful tomorrow when I actually teach.

4:29 pm

I don't have it either but I'm guessing the 10 is it's plural.

4:29 pm

YAY Gitel!!!!

4:30 pm

Early day for you then. Hope you enjoyed what you heard and saw.

4:30 pm

so I am resting for now, then will finish grading papers and getting ready for tomorrow with a little more time.

4:30 pm

Clues welcome here. Please.

4:30 pm

okay can anyone cclue the ve9?

4:30 pm

It was interesting. We were acting out scenarios - how teachers can deal with abuse (bullying and harassment). Very useful.

4:31 pm

I think some of the tai kwan do helps with the issues you were dealing with.

4:32 pm

yes, I think it does. As soon as I think my hip is stable, I will take TKD with stidkid! LOL but mostly I think what I have been doing in the real classroom is working -- instant feedback to people engaged in negative behaviors, followed at a later point with a discussion that is less emotionally charged.

4:33 pm

Don't have the ve 9 or 10 only the 4.

ve9 = fervent or intense

as in a ve****** denial, only the noun form

4:33 pm

thanks joshua!

4:33 pm

Oh look work's done too. I'm outta here.

4:35 pm

anyway, stidkid #2 should show up a little after 2:30 today Mother, this was the 2nd day of testing for them. He was fine after yesterday, but don't know how his energy level will be today.

4:36 pm

Well, I thought we could make some cream cheese fudge that requires no cooking.

4:36 pm

he will LOVE that! LOL the way to a boy's heart...

4:36 pm

I don't know how to spell that darned ve word that means I am getting pretty upset and dogmatic and furious.

4:36 pm

see you later gramma

4:36 pm

cream cheese fudge, never heard of that, sounds good

4:36 pm

hello all

Fudge? Did I hear fudge.

4:36 pm

Hi peri, it's in a cookbook I've had since first married. Never made it before so it's about time.

4:37 pm

ve + (from little rascals) ** man wo... + plural guys + french article "that"

Oh No!

Yes red, fudge. It has no redeaming qualities except it is decadent. So I guess that is good.

4:37 pm

no rush, red

4:38 pm

4:38 pm

I made roasted potatoes, sauteed mushrooms and onions and a green salad for dinner. delish

4:38 pm

4:39 pm

4:39 pm

I cut the potatoes in chunks and tosed them around in olive oil with a ittle salt and peppe and put them on a cookie sheet

4:39 pm

Oh, no but actually I'm more interested in peri's dinner. I have mushrooms and you have solved the riddle of my dinner peri. Bless you. I have the dessert.

4:39 pm

fireworks

4:46 pm

YAY joshua!!!!

4:46 pm

a

congratulations joshuav!!!!!

4:46 pm

4:47 pm

I can resize it for you and send it by email if you like. Do you know how to get a picture form email onto your computer so you can use it?

4:47 pm

hey chiley

hi chiley. how goes it.

4:48 pm

not really

4:48 pm

okay... *thinking* how did you get the icon pic onto your profile?

4:48 pm

4:49 pm

firewords!!!!

4:49 pm

I just browsed my pictures and picked one.

congrats mama! i need to go get list, i have gotten about 3 words in 40 min...

4:49 pm

yes. Do you know what your computer has for editing pics?

4:50 pm

like what?

4:50 pm

My mother uses Picasa. Some people have photoshop or similar programs

picasa works well, i find it user friendly.

and free.

4:51 pm

free is important to our family!

4:51 pm

ok I getcha..my partner is going to put Adobe on this computer....thanks

i like free.

4:52 pm

though on the Babble they said they resize..??

4:53 pm

yes, resize the picture to be smaller -- about 400 x 40 0pixels works well.

4:53 pm

actually she uses photoshop all the time. This is a new computer and we haven't put adobe on yet.

4:54 pm

(that's 400 x 400) Glad you have someone who knows how to do that blue.

4:54 pm

thanks so much stid

photoshop will also resize though it is a lot more comlicated than picasa..

4:55 pm

5:31 pm

TY, lynxx!

5:39 pm

5:40 pm

5:45 pm

bye Hursh

6:22 pm

hi all... 58 left and I am in a hurry... time to list!

Hi all I am also going to list, as I need to be ready for the event of NCIS tonight.

36 left here.

is there a definition for the ve9?

yes jean, if you were horribly angry you might speak with Ve*******.

6:31 pm

perfect, thanks for that red

wow a whopper

ty

the second 9?

I dont always give good clues, but that one was fun to give. I kept trying to get it withthe T at the end.

6:32 pm

compound word.. think of a sail boat. ma9

the ma9 is like the primary bed linen,

never heard of it before.

never did either, ty perfect

now, I am looking for an opportunity to weave it in, I already taught all the gals at work "Pudenda"

all yuo ever wanted to know about your pudendum but were afraid to ask

yes. well, not so sure the ma 9 will fit in my job as easily as the pudenda did.

6:45 pm

the gals probably have a bit more first hand experience with pudenda... more relevant to their lives, etc

6:45 pm

afraid to ask what your job is!

I think so, we live no where near boats, and vici I work in an Emergency Deparment, we look at pudenda and worse all day long.

6:47 pm

red.. really... such language

6:47 pm

well, it is latin, not slang....

LOL kje, I am trying to find a way to work the 9 and ten into my daily conversation...

Hi kje.

6:48 pm

hey

and dorens and vici and jean and all lurkers. I am trying to complete before NCIS....

6:48 pm

the 10 should be easy enough

6:49 pm

yaya, and hi to all the rest of you. sure it is, kj, just pluralize the 9

true true that one will not be a problem.

6:49 pm

no, i mean to use in convo... I am done

6:49 pm

oh, well yay kayjay.

are you in the PB baking cakes?

6:50 pm

I am twiddling here while waiting for my sushi

6:50 pm

i think the ten is not easy, the 9 yes, but how often do you discuss plurals of them?

6:50 pm

why? did i say a word???

6:50 pm

Hello all.

Hi scrabbs, no kje, no word, I just want cake and you are done.

6:50 pm

hey scrab

6:51 pm

hi scrabs. how was your TUesday?

6:51 pm

What is this talk of pudenda???

6:51 pm

wrote my eval today, scrab, on the lame intern... why do I always feel bad about those low evals

6:51 pm

red is talking dirty

6:51 pm

you know how she can get

red needs a clue fr the im 7 please.

6:52 pm

im7 - HUGE

6:52 pm

very large... now, I need oone for the im6

6:52 pm

im6 - like in6

6:52 pm

This morning was part 2 of root canal procedure--he had to locate canal #3 that he could not find during part 1 procedure. After saying "Oh, Christ," drilling, grunting + groaning he said "Hot diggety, there it is!"

the im 6 is just like one of the en6's involving getting stuck in a net.

and thanks!!!! for the huge.

6:52 pm

LOL scrab... I think I would be a little freaked out by that

6:53 pm

thanks!

6:53 pm

im6, en6, em6 - all the same

6:53 pm

oh no, more? was hoping that was done by now scrabs? quite an ordeal there. ssorry

scrabbs do you have relief now?

6:53 pm

But that feedback is essential, kje. People must be protected from bad doctors. Better he find out now than be moved along.

6:54 pm

just draining scrab... took me almost an hour to write it

agreed with scrabb, kje, he knows it, he needs someone to let it be known.

oh crud, 17 left and ncis is coming on!!!!! My Gibbs, they are going to crucify him.

16

6:55 pm

kje, we know attending MDs that are bad docs that should have gotten identified long ago. Now they are endangering patients. Dr Richard Head is one of those.

6:56 pm

nooooo - are they getting rid of gibbs?

6:56 pm

But honest feedback will--we hope--make him a better doc.

6:56 pm

hopefully, scrab... it was disheartening when he told me no one had ever told him about these issues before

15 rushing rushing.

6:57 pm

go red go

6:57 pm

do you need ic6?

no kje I dont but I am to 13

6:57 pm

darn, i wanted to clue it - LOL

7:14 pm

wish you could watch lost with me tonight kje!

7:15 pm

Since "24" is coming to an end my friend + I need a new show to get addicted to and to discuss. We might rent Lost and watch that.

7:16 pm

me too, weed

7:16 pm

doug was very sad last night re: 24

7:16 pm

is it over?

7:16 pm

scrab - the wire... rent that

7:17 pm

But this season has been awful--SO implausible!

7:17 pm

Is that the show in Baltimore?

7:17 pm

yep

7:18 pm

pretty intense at times though

7:18 pm

hey babblers, I have a question for your collective wisdom!

7:18 pm

are we collectively wise?

7:18 pm

hi harp

7:19 pm

It seems to me that, although color ink is usually a bit more expensive than black and white, it is not TERRIBLY more costly to print in color than in black and greyscale. Because, when you print in color, you are using LESS black ink..... A color cartridge, as a rule, lasts twice as long as a black one.

7:19 pm

What do you all think?

7:20 pm

and how many letters in the n words?

7:20 pm

no idea

7:20 pm

ummm, no clue! sorry

7:20 pm

and the i words?

7:22 pm

ne4 x 2, and ni4 x 1

7:22 pm

ic6 and ic4

7:22 pm

ic6 cometh

7:23 pm

I rarely print in color.

7:24 pm

what about the middle E? how many lettesr?

7:25 pm

I am not liking this grid--not seeing much and I am almost halfway.

7:25 pm

7:25 pm

em6 - mr kelly

7:26 pm

TY, kje

7:26 pm

yw

7:26 pm

How is your mother doing, kje? And your parents live where?

Whoa- ve10! I'm not gonna monkey that one!

7:27 pm

they live here, and they are doing fine

7:27 pm

kaplan - it is doable

7:27 pm

But did you grow up in Baltimore or Dallas?

7:27 pm

Hi Kaplan

7:28 pm

suburb of dallas

7:28 pm

born in VA, moved here at 5, was in B-more for 10 years

7:28 pm

Ah, for some reason I thought your hometown was Baltimore.

Hi. ZI have 27 left but too many ;long ones I can't see. And that ve10--whoo baby!

Doable but not by me!

7:28 pm

ve10 - plural of ve9

7:29 pm

I have a cousin in Dallas. His daughter will graduate from Booker T Washington HS soon.

Oh- I know it!!!

7:29 pm

ve9 - anger

I GOT IT!!!

7:29 pm

good

All by myself!

7:30 pm

isn't that the arts magnet?

7:30 pm

*thinking about ve9*

I don't have the 9- ios it like the 10?

7:30 pm

Yep, she has won awards in film, and will go to UT Austin to major in Physics vs Film--undecided, but very bright.

7:31 pm

Hm, not vehement.

7:31 pm

cool scrab! will you be down for graduation?

7:31 pm

close enough to get a trip to the PB, scrab

7:32 pm

Nope, never been there, but someday I may go with his sister/my cousin.

Don't you think veisenica would make a cool word?

7:32 pm

must be if she's going to UT

7:32 pm

k, look me up

7:32 pm

Aha, got ve9 + 10 now!

Been where? To the PB?

7:32 pm

Sounds like a homeopathic product or a plant, Kaplan

7:32 pm

hi wild... is your name joanne?

7:33 pm

no

7:33 pm

k, trying to remember a babbler, but can't get it right

7:33 pm

TX babbler named joann... any clues?

Is the ve9 related to the 10?

7:34 pm

yes kap - singular form

7:34 pm

I know 3 Babbling Joannes but they are not in TX

7:34 pm

7:35 pm

7:37 pm

I don't know many joanns period

Oh- I already had the 9- I caouldn't count that high. - Pluraled it.

ve,+ the bottom of your skirt or pants, and a suffix
