That's great jillibus. No hurry. Just wanted to make contact.
ho 8 and 9
ty melissamay
clever meslissa!
BAH!!! I keep trying, but it won't accept research
Hello, sister
Hello, sister
I did feel clever, I usually don't find the big baddies this early in the game!
r is in the wrong place, christine
whoa -- I see there are 2 ho 9s and an ho 10!
I have all the Hs and I only see one 8 and 9 though, jilli.
Jill, think the H 9and 10 are the extra words cos I have all the H's without them
jinx diz!
I know, it's just not fair.
I know, it's just not fair.
thanks jilli, got one of the 9s
YW Mel, but what for??? LOL
oh, whew, diz! Thanks!
I know, it's just not fair.
yes, it won't take ho5ca4, though it likely would take oxca4
guessing those would be horsecart/s..must not take them
We said the same thing and the same time!
i need one for nbt but i have 103 words found
lose the last letter dart :D
that's right, dart :)
LOL see what ya mean, Mel
dar i just tried horsecart no luck
my stats changed when I entered the ho 8-9
have those already
I have 120, but still lots of BTs.
but that chat found me the ho8 and 9 ;)
guys, let's not put the ca4 before the ho5. it might be some other ho9/10
think there should be an ho 9-x2
what do you mean josh?
*enable doesn't like that one!
just making a joke, mlf
agreed, it's weird they took the former and not the latter
185, ruru, and I'm off *poof*
yes josh -- the one you just described is not accepted by enable
252 and stuck
is lickety up today?
yeah HO 9/10 i just treid should work tink but it doesnt
yes josh
yes, josh, with 2 extra words
ah ruru -- read the label on my ortega bottle: it is a german varietal resulting from crossing muller-thurgau with siegrebbe vines.
oh..
se6,7,8,8,8 combo
mmm -- missed one of those 8's feralous
oddly, it won't let you plural on of the 8s, which seems to me ought be plurable
dc - you'd have to reuse that r for that
agreed dc
i almost missed it too cybernan
to 8 and to 9 if not said
no you would not
anyone have the last 9?
not yet, dee
to get to a plural you would
ty nan
still looking for that last se 8 in the combo
no add'l r neded for the plural
i know, but you'd have to use the same r twice to get to the last s
unless we are looking at two different combos...shhhh?
maybe we're talking about different words, i dunno
no you do not.
oh, yes, that is possible nan
ho9, re9x2, to9
the last se8 is definitely pluralable, but not in this grid
ty fer!
last se8 i have is plural
so, must be more than one such combo. hm
ok, then we're talking about different words
I don't think I have ever seen the ho 9 before lol
alt spelling of first se8
ty seain -- that last comment gave it to me :)
i see which se8 you're talking about now, sorry for the confusion
all good :)
fireworks
i think that se8 is an intensifier of the se6, and not a noun
gj dart
congrats, dart
so there are 3 se 8's? Is that correct
wtg dart!!
train carriage that was pulled by the animal, dee -- there is one in the british rail museum in York.
as far as i know, dee, but i am missing some 8's still
i thought it one who of the se7, but good point josh
ty
4 se 8's
aaaahhh now I get the alt sp comment
but the other one is also possible to pl. without repeating the r
ty dart
only have one re 9 -- time to look for the other
ah, got the 4th se8, ty dart
3 are related..the other you might vacation at
ty ty great clue
she sells sea shells
lol
that alt spelling ought be pluralable, IMHO
I agree dc
if you're talking about the noun, you can't plural it in this grid without reusing an r - try typing, it will not say "word not found" but "does not exist in this puzzle"
well, 108 to go and i'm crashing.
so, g'day night/day and happy babbling, yall!
finally found all the r's
{poof}
night dc
wtg ru
goodnight dc
good night dc
wd ruru
are the extra words on lickety's list the ho 9/66 and the ho 10/84?
190 down -- enough -- see you tomorrow :)
don't know -- haven't listed yet dee, but my stats changed when I added them so I don't think so
there are 2 ho 9's on lickety's list... wouldn't take them, so I do think they are the extras
said "not in dictionary" when I typed
oh -- misread your query -- yes, I think they are
yes dee, I have all the h words and there are actually 13
I have one ho 8-9 combo accepted
ty flosey and nan
I have one ho 9 but the other ho 9 with a t on the end doesn't take in either list, nor does the pl
good night everyone :)
gn nan
if the ho 9 & 10 were the ones mentioned before they would have shown up in Lickety even though not in the Word List.
def seems the one where the animals run fast and pl are the extras
the ho9 and 10 not accepted are horserace and pl
night nan and hi dee hi
and hello all
hug jili
anyone have the as?
hi ursh -- you're in the grid :)
not here ru
a + where you find seashells
when you leave the ocean you come as6
thanks josh
*smacks head*
and Dee
thanks josh
yw
ty josh
everyone say a few prayers... we put our house on the market on Friday... hoping to move to a house with the master bedroom on the main floor...
oh, best of luck, dee!
ty jili... scary... we built this house 30 years ago :~)
will do Dee, good luck
ty
it will be hard to leave it! Can you not add a bedroom wing on the main floor?
would put us too close to the river and would be an overdevelopment for our house... if it doesn't sell, we will probably reconsider options, but not our first choice
well, you know best, dee :)
ours is one of the larger ones, and we are afraid to put more money into this one...
found the to9
we are kinda thinking... it's now or never...
wtg ru
sounds like smart thinking, dee
that is what hubby is thinking at this point, but of course subject to change lol
got that to8/9 too -- lots of similar words here
would it be downsizing a bit too, dee?
ca
how did that get there?
not yet... just a different distribution of square feet... hoping to have room for family visits still
so not quite ready to downsize
would you be building or buying, dee?
anyone have the last cr 6/24 please
buying
not me, ruru -- I haven't ANY cr words yet. lol!
cr+ double vowel + 2 letters that mean be quiet...
have you seen something you like, dee?
done
there are 3 I like and one I could move into tomorrow and be thrilled
wtg ru!
thank you dee
had to list for the last 10
yw
YAY ruru!!!
Oh, that's great, dee!
*bows*
but we really don't want to make any offers until we are sure ours will sell for what we want
Amazing, ru!
That sounds wise, dee.
wow ru, very well done
it is hard to sell and buy at the same time
sure hope so, jili..
still an hour behind dart flosey..lol
oh, did dart finish? I missed that.
well, still very good
I missed it too
jilli, did you notice my icon?
okay.. off to watch replays of the baseball game..what a day !
I'll change it soon, for Anniebrook's bd
bye for now
yes, flosey, and commented that it's a good disguise, (because I don't know who it is) .
bye
bye ruru!
oh, sorry, missed it
well, you've only met him twice - at bridge
and you made a very nice write-up about the duo
which I mailed to him
I have??? *thinking (in vain)
fireworks
son, Gordon
wtg Dee
is there some reason I don't see grem any more?
ty
I'm getting a vague idea -- pls put me out of my ignorant misery!
an old girlfriend of his, back in HS days made that for him
l:40 jilli
dee, I've wondeered about grem too. We heard from chuggaboom the other day -- not doing well. He's only 18!
ooooh, so sorry to hear
hope chugga keeps in touch, needs the positive contacts
Oh, sorry, flosey, missed that -- of course -- your handsome son!
definitely agree
and flosey, what do you think of my smoked samon recipe? (It's not mine, but sounded tasty)
*salmon
jilli, hubby and 3 kids love smoked salmon, I can barely stand the smell, hate to admit that
I'll copy it though, for the girls
oh, that's too bad, flosey!
I don't see a recipe
only for the cake
well, I need to get going; have a great eve / day! *poofing with hugs*
gn all!!
goodnight Dee, sweet dreams
Oops! I forgot to copy and paste -- do you see the recipe now?
yes, thanks jilli, have copied it into my bio for now
g'night dee, and good luck with the house!
have it now, the girls will love it - Geo too
Gord too, Dave is like his mother!
oh, heredity is funny
sure is
unfortunate in a way, his wife grew up eating fish of all kinds - in Philippines
are you both total fishophobes?
no, I love halibut, salmon, can eat salmon pate
love shrimp, etc
I'm glad I like almost everything
living here, for sure
really very few things I can't eat - just that one
wel, I suppose it's fairly pungent. What about the other kind of smoked salmon -- not the lox type?
ah, finally got the first ca6 and 7, so silly! so obvious!
no, no raw salmon
I have prepared it for others, smell is just a bit offensive, but to get it in my mouth is another word
The kind I'm thinking of isn't raw, but coooked over smoke.
no, none of that
very odd! What about other smoked fish, like kippers?
it also looks very attractive on a buffet table
oh no, not those either
so it's really the smoked flavour you don't like.
perhaps, but lox doesn't have smoke, think it's the texture there
Hmf -- CTV just went off the air
well, does that mean it's time for bed?
it's back now
it's back now
and it's the witching hour
it's back now -- but it IS time for bed, lol!
that was a long hiccup
sometimes, lately, it seems to be
hellooooo
hello varumba
hi varumba
been trying to say helo for 5 min, lol.. for some reason my msg would not leaving the typing box
hello*
beautiful icon varumba
ty
because you hit the hiccup time, varumba, when nothing works for a few minutes. Same time every day/night
oh ok
i thought it might be my network
how is this grid?
No, just a babble quirk -- some kind of adjustment, we guess
not really bad varumba
have been here for 2 hours and have 208 words
ok
This grid is BIG. Ruru and dart have finished quite fast, but then they're superhuman.
I only have 141 words. I'm subhuman.
lmao, ok... it's morning time for me, so i can onmly play for 10 min or so..... huurying up to finish breakfast now so i can start ;)
slower if you enjoy the chat, but that's half the fun
Varumba, someone named that The Twitching Hour
no, jilli, you just enjoy the chat
Great name, Christine, and hi!
hi crhis... .do you mean that time of the day where babble doesn't work?
Ji, Dear -- not my name for it, I refer to it as a hiccup.
Yes, it generally hits about midnite (left coast time) and stops your post.
the witching hour for me because it's midnight our time and isn't that when we turn into pumpkins?
*Jillibus - don't lnow whay happened to the rest of your name -- you jknow I never abreviate, but the gremlins got in
not getting the ea7, anyone have a clue?
sry, just starting!
ty
no, flosey, don't have it either
I'll come back to it
Christine, I don't mind abbreviations ;)
the ea 7 ends with a gun ****
oh tx joey!
thanks joey, got it
you're very welcome
thanks from me too, joey, and hi!
hi jillibus
helloo indeed
I find it almosdt impossible to abreviate names -- I like my name and often don't realise people are addressing me when they say Chris.
<<<<<makes a mental note to call you christine
I've been Jilly with my hubby's family for years and love it, so like being called jilli here.
But jillibus was my dad's pet name for me when I was little, so that's nice too.
I figure, the name a person chose for this game is the one s/he wanrs to use ...
My daughter is Vanessa, which I think is a beautiful name, but her Father's wife insists on calling her Nessie, and taught her children to do so -- makes me want to do bodily harm
Vanessa's a lovely name.
oh, I don't blame you Christine, what a beautiful name
i like var myself..... but whatever ppl choose... personally, i shorten names coz i'm lazy :D
My M-I-L called me Flo and I disliked it coming from her
me too, var ;)
hi all
missed flip
hi m9
hi m9!
Oh, I hope you don't mind flo from otheres, flosey!
hello m9
My Mother used to say, if I wanted you called Judy or Mal or Chris, that woul be your name. My youngest sister, Marianne, plays here using the name Mal .
absolutely not, jilli - it just irked me because I really wasn't at all fond of the woman
typo time -- bedtime banana-milk time too, methinks
And I bet you really love Miss Yetta for shortening Banethi's name
an di need to shut this down if i want to go to work on time - which i need to do ;)
Well, I think I've told people the problems I had with Gillian (my real name)
this is gonna mess my grid... as i'll have forgotten tonight which words i got!
*sigh* work ALWAYS gets in the way....
but they stay here, varumba
Sorry guys. Banethi is my pet name for Christine's daughter. Neither of them like it and I just use it to rile my sister.
The grid will remember, varumba
ok guys, hag night/ day..... syl!!! lol jill
byeeeeeeeeee
Morning...
bye
good morning J.C.!
good morning JC
Christine - ok I apologise
I feel like you're my ship that passes in the night!
Hmmm. Good night, m9. ;)
Morning - or evening in your case, flosey. :)
Greetings, JC!
Greetings, Jilli! :)
yes quite.. it's the middle of the night
Bye all. Off to clear kitchen after dinner.
and I was just heading for bed with 119 left -- goodnight all! *poof*
nite
bye jilli
g'night jilli, see you tomorrow night
(love your pumpkin, m9!)
wish it were mine! found it on google.
Ah. Good night then, Jill...
whole right column being coy.. keep thinking i have words for it... but they come off diff letters.
Hey, Judith - remember I told you the Spanish neighbours (from Castille) called her Banethi - -love names are okay, but NOT!!! Nessie.
goodnight again and *repoof*
That bloomin' sister of mine, floats in and out
Sleep well, Jillibus.
I have a friend called Vanessa who some have tried to call 'Nessie'. Hasn't gone over well. :P
I had one friend that called me mar. and my brother has called me that on ra4 occasions. but I don't really have a nickname.
m9f91 -- That''s Peter Pumokineater
Miy MIL is STILL called by her childhood nickname! By all of her family at least.
oh you know this pumpkin?LOL
I married a man named Jack, but his name is really Henry, and his sister Jenelle was always called Jill
It's eating another pumpkin, m9. :P
So it must be...
although the typo makes it sound like it's eating indian jerky.LOL
*Pumpkineater
My middle name is Peter. And I could eat pumpkins.
pumpkins are nummy.
we like them in soups.
pumpkin pie is yummier
mmm...pie......
and pumpkin whole wheat pancakes.
oh, that would be good m9
Back again Christine - I always thought therir names were Jack and Jill.
morning all...
hello Fish
hello fish
Morning, Fish.
Fooooool, that's because he couldn't/wouldn't say her name.
12:4 is no time to be arguing about Wham! lyrics...LOL I have such a strange household.
Judith, did you remember to say White Rabbits ??
Hmmm. To which song, m9?
Kitchen still awaiting clearing. Wish I was that woman in Bewitched.
No Christine - forgot all about it.
Ah. The re8,40 and re9,54 were easy to see...
careless whisper.
How did I know? Thought of that one immediately.
Hot pumpkin soup M9 with a lump of blue cheese tossed in just before serving. Fantastic.
I am psychic though.
oh now I'll have to look for them.. and feel stupid when I can't find them!LOL
blue cheese?!?!?
Yes - I didn't have any sour cream one night and put the blue cheese in. Necessity being the mother of invention eh?
ack! there's so many re's!~!!!!!
there are 2 x re8 and 9 JC
Ah. Glad I don't know how many. :P
Are they similar?
I only have 1, no idea what the other is
I just got an 8!
and a nine!
Well I was asking m9. ;)
I suppose someone who works in a bowling alley
that's the one I have
oh.. I don't know how many either.. I just meant on the grid!
Hmmm. Someone's trying to make me think this early in the day. :P
FIVE different places an re could start!
isn't it easier than this late in the night, JC
Is either one easy? :P
lol
Ah. It's the person who puts the pins back in place, isn't it? I guess...?
yeah.. but J.C. is probably all energized with good fruits and vegetables.. and we're trying to do the grid on days of halloween candy!LOL
lol, someone has to finish up the remains!!
Energised? :P Hmmm. Caffeinated...
I keep thinking of all these words that end "eat"... but there's no a near any of those t's!
another thing I don't do. Really.. sugar is about the only vise left to me!LOL
Our alarm goes off too early. We need separate bedrooms - as I keep saying. Never happens. ;)
I tried that too JC, didn't go
although, in truth, we both get a much better sleep when alone
Well I wouldn't try it really. I just whinge about being woken up so early in the week. :P Office workers!
if one is restless, it is disturbing
my parents were on different floors even!LOL
Due to snoring, by any chance?
Naturally I don't snore. Ian does. :P
well, that's what would happen here, only 1 bedroom on this floor
Just as naturally, he would say the opposite. :P
my dad was a HUGE snorer!
lo, I do - so I'm told
If you were to ask him...
or use to!
lol JC, only when we're angry!! which is seldom
Hmmm. Even on Halloween, you can't frighten anyone a second time, I see...
Hmmm, flosey?
I remember one thunderstorm, so we didn't tent camp that night.. but got a cabin (I think we were in Yellowstone).. and it wasn't the thunderstorm that kept us up.
Oh we're bitchy to and about each other often - it's usually only in jest, however. ;)
That's why we get away with it...
you trying to frighten someone?
Hmmm? Now why would I want to do that?
today is a big holiday here, nice to have such a loarge grid!
I tried to enter a word, meaning to frighten again. Didn't work, however.
my brother tried pinching my dad's nose.... we gently put a pillow on his face... LOL
ah! I get it!
Thought you might. ;)
hope it was gentle!
I think we even tried pushing him onto his side..
but even the three of us probably couldn't do that.
heavy sleeper
yeah.. and heavy man! 350 lbs
was probably about 65 at that time.
hmmm, indeed!
years
hubby's nephew (lived on next property) was 495 lb when the dr. put him into hospital until he lost a couplehundred lbs
wow!! he could be pals with Richard Simmons!
Oh my gosh...
he should have been!
he died young
had had a couple heart attacks
Not surprised. Sad. :(
495 lbs?!?! bugger me, my entire family weighs less!
so did my brother. Well.. about 50
congestive heart failure
Yes. Hardly surprising...
you're still here fish? so quiet.
Ah. Fish does answer people sometimes?!
Bobby was probably around that age
ooohh...get you
Or respond, rather...
they said my brother's car had a lot of McDonald's bags in it.......
busy with grid JC....am actually doing pretty well so far without grid
busy..yet without...LOL
Get me? Well. Tried to tell you something amusing the other day and you seemed to want to disregard it - it's quite amusing, too. Don't want to say what it was about in here, but would have sent it to you, as it would have given you as much of a headshake, eyeroll and laugh...
Without grid? I think you mean without list - without grid would be, well, impossible?
I put my gmail in my profile
Ah. You were talking around it, so I thought you saw.
Got it. ;) I'll forward...
phant research
ah...yes. List. Not grid. Need my second coffee methinks
I'm off to bed, 40 to go and hope they come faster than they have in last half hour!
Goodnight all
better than my 182 to go!
nighty night
NIght!
nite, flosey (and hello)

for having all these most used letters... I'm not seeing much.

oh, JC, how did the show go?
hi m9

I think I'm losing my marbles -- maybe I've already lost them!
bad ruby!
Can you post the 9 letter words before you find your marbles?
ya lucky 'marbles' isn't in the grid...hehehe
fish.. I'm at 179 to go now.. this is like pulling teeth.
but 'arse' is!
I only have one 9. it's an re... and could be kids that work in a bowling alley.
Fish, its a word...PB for you...LOL
It is sent, Fish...
haven't found a psychic one....
That's one of the first words I saw in the grid - surprisingly. :P
The one Fish just said, that is...
Fancy that?
Ilove this grid!
no. I don't.LOL
JC - just read it...holy crapola!
Tell me about it?!
57 left and only 2 nines and 10 eights
I was laughing like you can't imagine...
Talk about uptight and humourless...
I only have one of ea4
And, well. The rest doesn't need saying. :P
you sent him an email about my mother?!?!?
ea44, gain a living, ea4/4 one hears with, ea4/4 not busy
Yes, m9. Of course. :P
I wasn't looking for clues.. I was just not saying the word!LOL
As if I know much of anything about her? :P
hahah, m9, sorry
oh but you had her to a T..LOL
Ah. Well this person may be a relative?
You should hope not, though.
:-)
JC, how did the show go?
speaking of relatives.. I hear you "met" hewho.
Very well, thanks...
Ah. Yes. Very peculiar...
great, glad to hear it
I'll say!LOL
and now am off to bed (was checking emails)
night flosey
Morning everybody. Happy All Saints Day.
he says "and just which of your friends is Julian?"
that was actually quite social for him!LOL
and he'd be mad about me saying that much about him.. So I'll stop now.
Good morning, babblers. Long time no see.
woah.. humongous icon fuq!
and good morning
Hello, Soodlebum and fuquayvarina
oops, sorry, let me fix that.
{{soodle}} is it as big a holiday there as here? Everybody takes chrysanthemums to the graves
aahhh...clocks went back at the weekend in the UK, right?
Hmmm. In that case presume a repeat what I just said, m9. :P Morning, Soodlebum.
That icon took over all the laptop screen, and half the hallway.
Yes, Fish.
Hiya Rubes. Nope - its a normal working day :-(.
Where are you then?
here, the children have been off school since last week
In Israel at the mo visiting the kids....and trying to complete a house sale on the phone
oh.. clocks!
Ah, I see!
Yup - my lot were all off last week, but its business as usual again. I enjoyed the extra hour in bed though!
and no trick-or-treaters
Flippit - I better change my icon.... I am quite fond of being a witch :-)
OK, icon should be better now. Sorry.
yup. much better.
Ah yes - very pretty, fuquay. :)
I'm seeing a flower?
just came to a grinding halt after a quick 121 words
oh yeah.. Monday is flowers.. or pets...?
yes, it's a lily, photographed this summer in the blue ridge mountains. I have no idea what the theme is, just like the photo.
It is a lovely shot...
Today is pets?
I can do that...
Dogs, iphone...
apparently smoked salmon is the theme. I think you better stick with your dogs!LOL
or just keep the pic you have.... I LOVE it!!
Oh good god. :(
Definitely not doing that, no.
Think I will. It's quite typical of me. :P
are you actually singing??
well at least I got the color right, sort of
No! Just goofing around...
yay, half, now I can get dressed!
see you later *poof*
time for a little breakfast, bbl if I can
what sort of dictionary doesn't allow 'scrote'?! C'mon now....
HAHAHA!
how 'bout scrotette?
You just about made coffee come out of my nose then. Never mind. Wouldn't doubt I've caused that to happen to someone before now. :P
the f. diminuitive of scrote.....
(Shakes head).
hey! I'm ready to try anything with this grid! grrrr...
I'll be getting complaints again
Well I'm surprised I haven't had any, Fish...
How many words now, m9? I only have 156 - 120 left.
sanp - 120 to go
snap even
Feel as if I've hit that big wall now. I am hesitant to list, being sure that once I do I will see obvious words I'll want to slap myself for not finding yet!
it's going very slowly!! still 165 to go!
There is a 10 letter word in the grid. I just found it. Licketys list took it, but its not showing up in my word list.....strange....
it's not scrotettes is it?
:P
I snorted that time.
LMAO. No, fish. Its not scrotettes.
they couldn't have put one of those s's next to one of those t's????
Soodle the 2nd ho 9 and 10 in Lickety's are 2 extra words.
Yep - I just noticed that Diz. Very strange.
often happens
ooh... I've grayed out TWO tiles!!
WD M9
saree
oopsie
i still don't have nbt!
what do you need?
corner s
top middle e
se 4
AND...
second column e and lower r!
er 4/6
go left and down for that last one
RE + EA 4...+pl
am I helping?????
oh and that middle top E has a 5/14 to go with it
yes.. thanks! can't believe I didn't have that er4!
ER 5/14 that is
did ya get the RE's from the 2nd col lower R?
second column e ...try french for snails without 'got'
thank you! getting there..
thanks for the re6.18 dizgrannie
just one more..
pl, Lynxx
yay.. nbt! thank you
and nbs..
but I still can't list...
m9, when you list, Lickety has Ho 9/10 that aint here ...ie; 2 extra words
k
Somebody had better let him know what they are so that he can adjust the programme. If extra words are thrown up, he has to manually readjust things otherwise the list isn't produced on subsequent days.
how does one do that, Haz???
I think just by e-mailing and letting him know what the two words are that appear on his list but aren't accepted by Dr-G's word list.
morning Haz
Good evening lynxxx, good morning/evening all.
This seems to be a very obliging grid so far.
a bit too obliging, goes very fast
BBL time to do dinner
Bye, lynxxx, see you later.
hi all
Hello, jmc.
grrrrr 31 left and just realised all R's and T's...grrr
not a surprise that they are with this grid
How many words today please
276
Thanks
wondering why there is a helicopter making passes over my house
You're welcome, gran.
Press photographers? What have you been up to, jmc?
I am innocent I tell you!
They all say that.
*hides beneath table*
They'll have that heat seeking equipment.
*runs and grabs ice from freezer*
evening all
hi button
Hello, Buttonman.
jmc...are you a secreted axe murderer???? LOL
shhhh don't tell anyone
She'll plead the Fifth.
shyte, just gave a clue.
they are finally gone and ty
gawd they didn't get ya...or they gave up...LOL
i think the ice turned the trick
hi Haz,jmc...got a question. I have a ho 9 & 10 that lickety's Babble clues will take but the grid will not take. never had that happen before. What is up?
every once in a while lickety gives an extra word or in this case two
Buttonman, it has happened before. The problem is that LIckety uses a slightly different version of the Enable dictionary, so occasionally it throws up words that it recognises, but that Dr-G's version doesn't. Just disregard those words, they get you no points.
what a bummer....the two words I got, 150 points but no credit
thanks for the information.
I know, but nobody else gets them either so we're all in the same boat!
Good morning everyone. Yay! Half-way so will allow myself to chat!
hi sally
Good morning, Sally.
Lovely grid so far.
rats it is suppose to freeze tonight and i will have to bring in all of my plants
It's great, definitely one that flows.
Are there lots to bring in, jmc?
several of them are really heavy
i put them all in my downstairs shower for the winter
Good morning, just on my way to work, but 36 words in this grid, is much more user friendly than yesterdays!!!
at least they are easy to water that way!
hi red
jmc you are up early...
Hello, red, it's a nice grid, you'll be tempted to stay to find more.
couldn't sleep
I am always tempted to not go to work. It's a pesky thing this dependence on Money earned.
It's hard to sleep when you're being hounded by helicopters.
afraid i was awake before they came
Morningto haz and JMC.
Oh dear. Lots of babblers seem to have sleep problems.
not generally for me -- went to bed early so i would be able to got work the election protection hotline tomorrow
Election protection rhymes nicely.
yes and i have a nice time doing it each time
I can not wait to vote tomorrow, my only issue is with our race for the senate JMC. its very confusing...I like Kendrick Meek, but he won't carry the vote, and I do not like Rubio, who is an Ass, or that insane Scott (who is running for Govoner)
vote for the people who will do a good job
Protecting the voters rather than the politicians? I can't see you as a trench-coated, shade wearing heavy talking up your sleeve.
the polls are likely to be especially inaacurate this time as they only use landlines
I think my concern is that Charlie Crist, is someone who might do a good job, but not so sure..
yes -- trying to make sure every vote counts
so tell people where there polls are and what to take with them
trying to spot places where there is intimidation going on
So far in Orange county interesting fact here...More Democrats have voted than Republicans, which is a positive thing in our state, but..
Intimidation? WOw, this might be an interesting voting day.
i have yet to see an election where nothing happens red -- it just doesn't generally make the news
I think that is true jmc. A lot goes on that we are unaware of...I remember even al the problems with voting machines in certain areas etc..
6 years ago I was in Philly and one of the polls was in a guys home and he asked who you were voting for before he would let you in
we had to send the police to that one
WOw!
Ahhh, Haz you were so right! I do want to stay and find more, btu I have to make lunch and go to work.
and there is reason to believe there will be some *ahem* people who will be steering voters to the wrong poll and thus disenfranching them this time
Enjoy your day ladies and protect our voting rights JMC!!!! You are Awesome!
bye red
have a good day
That's self-discipline, red. Enjoy your day.
*blush*
okay clear i am not going to make nbt before i get going today :-(
lots of words already though
bbl
I'm going to break as well. Bye, jmc.
Bye Haz, jmc and everyone else going.
ce

That is wonderful, i am no where near finished, only got 100 words done, although i started about 30 minutes ago.
add e, er, ers erer, erers
I'm with ya Zoom. I bow to people who can finish a 276 word grid in an hour.
but i cannot see me getting as far as you in the same amount of time..lol
I have 100 words and must be off to work.
You're on pace, zooz. I just got 200 words in an hour--I think a personal best!
and good morning
later molls....morning jay
Take care, Molly
Thanks, Jayk, the grid seems to be going nicely at the moment.
200 in an hour though is fantastic!
Isn't it?! I am approaching unwarranted smugness
morning all, help with e in right corner pls
LOL, you have ea4ed the right to be smug :-)
go down and left
to go into a place you have to en*** the door
sheesh, ty, feeling stupid

Phantom : search
time for a tea break.
Hello again.
Morning Haz and the glittery one.
Good morning, FM. How are you?
Hello, Haz, FM
Hello, zooz.
Fine, a bit cottonwooly today, took ages to get to sleep and then slept too long. Morning zooz!
How are you, Haz?
I'm fine. I'm taking a break to see if I can get more words from this. It's a fun grid.
mm not long started and the t words are still flowing but will have to do a walk into the village in a while.
How are you zooz?
I am recovering from a cold...lol..as you know colds on a man = flu
LOL poor you ;)
Colds can be nasty as well. We'll sympathise.
for 5 or 10 mins max
Thank-you...Achooooo
I said we'd sympathise, I didn't say we wanted to share.
oh great, spread your germs why don't you!
lol
See how long our sympathy lasts?
LOL, sorry..i did sneeze into a tissue :-)
Kleenex Balsam, I hope? No other tissue is as kind.
Yes, thats the ones i use :-)
(Worldwide representative for Kleenex Balsam along with Ata)
Don't tell me you are on commission for them too?
My people are in negotiation with their people.
Yuo know, Haz, likes to have fingers in all the pies!
you*
Yes, indeed. I see it as a favour to mankind.
lol
brb
Some people spend their lives doing reviews on youtube for things, I just give glowing reports here instead.
the best place, Haz, all the influential people Babble.
so many venture capitalists play babble, you would not believe it.
I hate it when i forget to use a capital letter at the start of my sentence. Damn
We'll forgive you, zooz, the cold is obviously affecting your fingers.
And my poor only brain cell..lol
Oh lordy I have just noticed how many c and r words there are.
Yes, but there are very few peculiar words so far, the problem is remembering to put the right endings on.
Yes, i am trying to churn up the `C` wrods in the grid, at this moment.
words*
Thank heavens there is no d in the grid otherwise it would be twice the size.
I am doing my usual working backwards and just about to start the s's. Once I have got as many of those as I can I will do my errands.
I bought a book the other day called` My Grammar and I (or should that be `Me`?) by Caroline Taggart. Not working on me so far..lol
Love the title.
I've seen it in bookshops, zooz. Is it too dry?
To be honest, Haz, you would not need it.
So, not one for the Christmas wish list?
I like it, but i need it..lol
You're not the worst, I'm sure, zooz.
hear hear!
Thanks, But i could do a lot better i`m sure.
Likewise :)
I have 276 on Babble and 278 on Lickety - who's right?
Babble is always right, gran. Well done!
Babble is always right gran, Licket sometimes gets an extra word or two.
Thanks Haz
WTG Gran!
Lickety uses a different version of the dictionary and sometimes gets an extra word or two.
I also bought `Spilling the Beans on the Cat`s Pyjamas` Popular Expressions-What They Mean and Where we Got Them.
It's interesting to see where old expressions come from, isn't it? So which cat owned the pyjamas?
OK ground to a halt on the s's so will go and do stuff. Enjoyed the chat and catch up later I hope.
That one started in America in the 1920s mean, Top-notch.
Bye, FM.
Bee's Knees. Also 1920s.
Take care, FM :-)
Fuckin'awesom, dude I think came much later.
Can you watch the language, Kaplan. Not really ideal for a public chat log.
OOps- sorry.
Thanks.
"I just read it in a public book.
I'm not going to start debating or trying to be clever. I just don't want to read that sort of language here, thanks.
Sorry again- I wasn't debating. Just wasn't aware of that particular "group norm."
quietly slipping in .. good morning
Good morning, Mom.
good afternoon, Haz
Hello ((MoM))
((Zoozzoom)) good afternoon
hello. half this morning, but many trips to the pb (bad ruby!)
((Ruby)) hello. **wishes I was here earlier**
Hello, Ruby!
Hello, ruby.
I couldn't get the two places sorted out, was still sleepy and perticularly dopey
Ok taking a longer break, take care, All, and thanks, Haz :-)
((Zoozzoom)) take care
Bye, zooz, hope you feel better soon.
bye, zzoozz!
Good morning/day to all!
hello scrabbler! how are you?
Good morning, Scrabbler
Hello, Scrabbler.
Just arrived at the Indian Reservation Health Ctr and waiting for first kiddo to arrive.
are the Indians distrustful of innoculations for the children?
Nope, I know of only 1 mother that has refused them. The Amish refuse vaccines though, and many Amish folks live around here.
that is interesting to me. I worked with several Jehovah's Witnesses and they were pretty strange on that subject. But, unfortunately, I agree with them about transfusions
Yes, JW do not want blood products given, although docs get a court order to save a kid's life, when necessary.
hey friends, halloween ended up being much more trick than treat around here. yuckj
Hello, Trif.
Hi Trif! Yes, I had kids run across my front yard and knock on the front windows to "scare" me.
good morning folks, Hi Trif - what happened?
we didn't even have one trick-or-treater
Scrabbler, you might find this interesting - secondo was walking along with a group of friends, and some one was taking pot shots at them from the woods, as she got hit in the forehead. Gushing blood and an ER trip later, all is fine, but it was a scary ass night
that is horrible trif!
they think it was a pellet or bb gun, not a .22 or something, thank god in heaven
oh no! how terrible!
With BBs? DANGEROUS! There could have been eye damage!
Police are involved, I presume.
she is pretty rattled, but on the whole, we were way lucky. foreheads are nice hard bones. if it was her eye, or the corner of her lip, or her neck - not so much
Buon giorno, amica JBV!
hello JBV
That's awful, Trif. I hope she make a full recovery and the people who did it realise how foolish they've been.
Buon giorno, Bonjour!
police have not been involved as yet, as we have no actual forensic evidence (metal shards in wound site were insignficant enough to not be of use). I may go back today and see if I can find some bbs or pellets on the ground. that would change things up
are the police looking for the culprits?
we'll always remember this halloween, anyway.
Halloween is a reason for everyday ghouls to cause more trouble.
Good morning Darling. How is my baby?
Hi Car
hey sweetie girl! She is resting. I sure didn't. I basically watched her sleep all night.
Were sutures needed?
hello car
btw, mom is on her way home, then to the gym, then to pick up her rx
someone else is also very wound up....
no, they left it open scrabbler. The skin over the puncture is completely gone, and they wanted to avoid a nice big sc4, so they are leaving it. It's more a puncture/graze sort of thing, really
is she able to hold on to the basic arc of the tale, car?
Yes. It is her schedule today that is changing every 2 seconds. I told her to sit down and relax for a bit and then plan out her day.
yours is a lovely profile Trif, AMEN sister!
And good morning all my babble friends! I am sorry I am a bit distracted!
Aha, first patient has finally arrived. I will be in & out of here all day.
See you later, Scrabbler. I must go as well. Enjoy the grid, it's delightful. Bye!
Bye Scrabs, bye Haz!
Bye!
bye Scrabs and Haz
rete
oopes
oops
Great....now she is telling the little kids the story...
I was wrong.
good morning everyone;) there may be hiope as i have found a 9 in the early going ;))

It's all OK Trif. No worries. Just take care of my baby girl over there!
extension of to 6/18=someone wobby on thier feet
wobbly
(((M0m))) getting better, hi to you, JBV, crossy, Trif, ruby and everyone
Crossy, my large protein disappeared last week, I am sure it did not complete. Did complete one yesterday
oh Annie, I am so glad to hear that
thanks Crossy, got it
Trif, I am so sorry about your little one..could have been awful, the forehead is bad enough
Hi Trif and Car.
yes,i see you on the folding stats list now mom..too bad about the 6666 though;/
I am?
Hi Mom, Crossy, Annie....

hi car.
howdy car

{{singing music from Psycho shower scene...}}

that is wonderful Crossy
neat thing wireless..can see it catching on lol
greetings, all. Happy November!
howdy angel
Hi Angel
glad you are liking it
Hi Angel!
Hi Angel
hello angel
it is a big holiday here -- no mail, no newspaper, no restaurants, no housekeeper, no nothing!
what holiday is that Ruby?
good morning Babblers :)
for nbt, pls, 2nd column bottom r?
we got the bulk of our shopping for our Thanksfiving Dinner/open house done this weekend
then open a bottle of nice wine,put yer feet up and enjoy the day
all Souls' Day. Everybody puts flowers on and tends to the graves of family members. It is really quite lovely
Trif how scarey you night must have been! hope your daughter heals well and doesnt suffer any mental anguish from the incident
wait a sec car -- did you just say mom is telling the little kids what happened? as in "your cousin got shot in the head????"
thanks nono.
hello hello no no
ah, today is all Saint's day
No, I thought she was telling them, but she did not.
I always get the two mixed up! duh
phew.
who got shot?
Zach and Dylan know though...I told them last night and we talked about it.
The bacon delivery man, crossy!
secondo did. are they okay with the news, car?
((Nono)) good morning
Trif, So sorry this happened to your little one.
hold ion while i read back...
time to start my ch 6/24, see everyone later today
secondo got shot crossy. she was out trick or treating with friends,
Yes, they are OK. That is why I told them and talked to them about it...so they would understand what happened.
{{mom}}
i am guessing it was idiots with a bb gun or you would be at the hospital now.i hope they catch the idiots
bye ((Mom))
it was idiots, we were at the hospital, and she is okay now
((Ruby and Nono)) enjoy you day
bye (((Mom))) have a great day
that is good,now if they can nab the kids who did this
Is she up yet Trif?
no. i keep obsessively checking on her
Just wondering emotionally how she will be today.
how old is she
14
...which is frightening in itself!!!
will be a big scare,but hopefully she is not traumatized over this
*poof* for now
bye ruby
Bye Ruby!
bye bye ((Annie))
bye bye ruby
Bye mom!
Oh my! I have 8/14 8's!!!!
I should not pay attention more often!
"the father" just called - def thinks we should follow up with los hombres. I am starting to agree
absolutely Trif
Follow up, but the chances of any information will be slim.
However, there is probably a lot of "talk" amongst the yewts and you may find out who did it.
yes, that was my thought also, car
Trif, I'm so sorry about what happened to your girl. I'm glad she is okay.
Good grief! Just realized sh4 is in the grid! We are all heading to the PB today!
I was waiting for someone to notice that. : D There is coffee and danish in the PB.
I realized it too, but decided I didn't ca4. surely we could make an exception?
under the circumstances Trif I think so
[[filling up my cup and noshing right now}}
car - go to the police station or call the police station?
and bye the way, i didnt have that word yet :(
Yeah, Trif...the best bet is going to be the gossip route. Kids cannot keep their mouths shut. But DO tell the police as well.
GO to the station...with secundo.
yes. you are right
Visual aids work wonders.
You want me to pick up tertiare today?
I agree--the offender(s) need to know this too, via gossip or questioning of neighborhood kids by police. The offender(s) needs to be made afraid of being caught.
no, but thanks, I think it ought to be me. I have not seen her since last night and she might be a bit twisted
good point, scrabbler!
over half way....
big board today
i guess i am just most afraid of a) this becoming some HUGE deal in this teeny town of ours or b) looking like an idiot == we can't PROVE anything here - even the hospital would only say it was "consistent" with a bb or pellet wound, not a "definite" one. They said her injury was caused by a sharp piece of metal travelling very quickly, but without actual proof, what do I have?
It is a big deal--imagine eye trauma leading to loss of vision.
you should have some witnesses, no? and did any of them hear the pop of the weapon?
some kids heard the sound of a mailbox getting hit. but no one SAW anything
and even without proof, the police will surely want to know if there is someone brazen and stupid enough to open fire on kids at halloween. that is the sort of behaviour that they are keen to not see escalate
i would certainly think so bonker
Trif....take her to the police station, file a report. They will do the follow up. #1 & #3 will most likely hear bits and pieces around the school. Pass those onto the police as well. Let them do the follow up. It will be coming from them, not you. Appropriate action needs to be taken. For her sake...she needs to know that something is being done about it. And BELIEVE me...someone knows EXACTLY who had the gun out last night.
the other option, should the officials seem reticent, is to suggest going to the media. other parents will definitely want to know if someone is taking potshots at kids
except what if it wasnt' a gun, and I file a report based on what might be true, and it turns out to be not true?
Oh well then. It needs to be followed up. you are giving the police the information that was passed onto you by the PROFESSIONALS at the hospital.
it might be a slingshot. in any case, it is a very real concern that someone is aiming a dangerous projectile weapon at kids
that is the very thing though - the professionals would not say. if the police ask the doctor or nurse about it, they are sure to say "we never said it was a gunshot!"
And the other thing, Trif....get some rest today. Right now you are wired, tired and upset. When she is up, make the report at the police station, but then just lay low for the day. You both will need it.
hang on - THAT is an excellent point, bonkler!
even if not aiming at the kids, being halloween night there were certainly plenty of children out and about
This isn't a court case Trif. Just pass on the information that was given to you. You are not filing false information...just the information you were provided with.
thanks car. right now I couldn't sleep if i drank a whole bottle of nyquil. wish she would get up. then we could just go and file the report already
Take it a step at a time Trif. Why don't you rest now while she is sleeping. You don't have to sleep...just rest.
Back again. Even if a gun was not used, some small missile was launched under dangerous conditions--at a person.
i would rather hang out with you all, but i promise, I will only discuss rainbows and sparkly things for the rest of the morning, no more dramz!
A step at a time....
When one is this tired, things can snowball out of proportion very quickly. Stop thinking of all the what ifs. Just deal with what is right in front of you at this moment. Take a step at a time....
phantom: churro...now I want mexican food.
Hey...has anyone heard from Eva? Just wondering how her wedding was.
probably not back from honeymoon yet
checking back in - so sorry to find out it was your daughter, Trif, I thought it was one of the friends, but in any case I hope all the kids are all right
WHAT?!?!?! Not babbling on her honeymoon!?!?!?
Good Morning - Eva popped in for a minute last monday before leaving on her honeymoon - said the wedding was wonderful - but didnt give any details
Thank you River! And good morning!
Hi Riverdance
ahhhh good to hear! and Hi River
Hi JBV!
hi car and Nono and River!
Grrr, Facebook is now blocked here at the Indian Reservation Health Ctr.
Hello Everyone
bastards!
How dare they!
scrabs, you might laugh at this - I just had to explain "interns" and "residents" to someone on the Italian forum - they don't have the same system there so it was a little difficult
well at least they didnt block babble...
Yes, I just want to play my words in Scrabble. Grrr.
OOOOH! Grayed the center E!!!!!!
i can understand their blocking facebook, there are way too many privacy issues and other things going on there
Aha, JBV. Intern = primo anno. Residency = tre o quattro o cinque anni
Morning folks
good morning Mr Bob
morning Bob
iam already on the phone brb
The "Forti-Guard" lists it as violating "personal relationship" guidelines.
yes, but their preliminary medical education is different- I don't think they do 4 yrs undergrad + 4 yrs medical
Hi Bob
It was me...sorry.
I think that Europeans enter med school earlier, yes, and the admission process is not as rigorous, although the training is.
Some Americans go to Italian med schools.
that must be difficult if you don't speak Italian? :)
For someone that already knows Italian. I know a guy that did that.
interesting
UK is 5 years academic/ 2 years residential
May I please have a clue for the S in the right column?
entry to all universities in UK is at 17, although for med school likely you'd have to do extra elective year to get the grades
Usually the Americans that do not gain admission to American med schools go to one of 2 English language med schools in the Carribbean.
TY, Fish.
sa4 car
(hanging head in shame....)
TY Trif.
yes, and I know several Spanish-speakers who went to med school in the Dominican Republic

Newborns are so beautiful, so amazingly prepared to survive--to feed, to cry when they need to be comforted, which is always.
The transition from fetus to newborn, lungs inflate, heart circulation adjusts to send blood to the lungs...amazing!

{{river}}
I should be working - just buried right now - but needed a short break
I forget that it's only a big holiday here!
is anybody here?
hi ruby just got in from work n40 left to go
hello bethn
always wanted to ask you, how did you end up in france?
that is a big question. Always wanted to live here, since my first trip in 1964
and finally did it with this husband....
I love the country and the language but, unfortunately, wound up in an area with bad food
bad food in FRANCE??????
this area, in the foothills of the Alps, soaks everything in cheese
and there is no good seafood
i like cheese and cant eat seafood (allergies) i might be very content there
never been to france St. barths is the closest I've come most of the food there is heaven, although you do get the occasional culinary failure
you might be happy here. Do you have Google Earth? Look up Annecy and Veyrier du Lac and you will see how beautiful it is
i will check it out
did you find it welcoming as an american?
Hi ruby
surprisingly, in our tiny village, the people are wonderful. It would be a disaster, though, is I didn't speak the language
hello bichon
how is your husband doing?
if* not is
i got it :) we all translate typos well here
badly and we go to court on Friday. I am happy with our lawyer, who seems to have made a very good and thorough case for us.
i feel so badly for him (and you)
it has been horrible for him
and they haven't put the dog down
how could they not?
this is definitely a strange place! I think you could commit a murder here and not go to jail
hopefully, after the hearing, the judge will order the dog put down
can someone help me with the te6/18 before the te 4/4 which is a number? thanks
the owner has no clout politically does he?
the first half of a playground equipment piece joey?
he may have, as his is an old family here. Fortunately, I have very good testimonies from a lot of different sources and, after all, my husband didn't bite the dog!
the other half is in the grid as well
thanks, I appreciate the help bethn
no problem, happy to help
he probably should have ruby, at least he would have had that small satisfaction
this has certainly been an additional education in French mores
hi all
hi all
hello TO
hi TO
he did, however, smack it in the mouth after the second attack!
too bad he wasn't holding a brick at the time
when he goes for a walk now, he carries a knife although I don't think it would have done him any good
I'm glad it hasn't made him house bound
then I would probably bite him!
you could go out for a pack of gauloise and never come home
*mean ruby*
no, truthful ruby! i pray my dh never retires
retirement is a disaster!!!
he is an engineer, and they seem to go on forever at his co.
I worked fro 2 1/2 yrs after we came here and it was wonderful! went back to the US 2X/yr
got to see my son and father and friends
were you a teacher ?
my husband worked until he was 70
Just to cheer everyone up, have you seen the new T-mobile advert filmed at Heathrow? It's on youtube - http://tinyurl.com/2cr2cew
in my first life, yes, but then later, lots of other things
would you like a quick e-mail bio after dinner?
i would miss my kids to be so far away. I couldn't leave now, my mom is not in good health and as it is i am @ 3 hrs away.
my son lives in TX, but comes to visit once or twice a year.
absolutely, if i am not prying i see you often in the grid. nhteb @ aol
got it, bethn, after I fix dinner for husband and pups
my son lives in nyc with his girlfriend. daughter is in south NJ . no grandchildren. at this rate we will be in diapers together
HI Haz! will check out you tube
hi haz, when did you pop in?
hahah
Oh, I pop in and out just to keep tabs!
no grandchildren here, either. Son and wife have decided against. Woe is me.....
we need your hall monitorship, haz! keeps us in line
i am down to 39, trying not to list but it is not looking good for that
I only have 90 left -- hahah
son and gf are not ready too poor- daughter not attached very picky after a series of less than ideal choices,
that was neat, haz, thank you for sharing

Hi Nan
sorry to hear. really must run, lunch is over
maybe it is allergies due to new plants etc in spain?
any clue for the to 8-40 please
people not steady on their legs sandra
((Ardilla)) Cepacol makes a really good throat spray
well, my version isn't exactly pudding...just cooked rice, sugar, vanilla, butter, cinnamon, and nutmeg mixed in a bowl and eaten
Sandra, hello ... it is the last part of the word for a see-saw
i have that but it is only 6 & 7
my access to a lot of us products is severely limited due to my location
the 6/7 is the action
make it a person/people for the 8/9
people can to6. the people who do it are to9
thanks all
phew!!!!
try the crushed aspirin in warm water gargle ardilla. straight from my pharmacist
don't think it's allergies; i've been here for over two weeks...this started yesterday afternoon
I am sure I am looking straight at it but cant find it!! The second ho9/66 and the 10-presumably the plural. Help anyone??
no aspirin...not sure the spanish supermarket carries meds
already on plenty of meds for allergies
think kentucky derby deeha
it will not accept my ho 9
i live on the spanish economy
I think they are the extras licity includes - not real
It wont accept the word I am -you are?- thinking of??
than salt water is your best bet
lickety - ho9/10
change the last letter sandra
i never looked at the list sorry, i have not clue listed yet
there is a8;9 but not another 9 &10
mentioned earlier ... waaay earlier
haven't listed yet either - hoping to get to 200 first
the nine ten i thought would be there isnt found in the dictionary
just checked...i didn't bring my salt with me
still missing 3 8's and a 9
i am down to 29 left listless need 3 8s, and a 9 like nan
did you bring boullion cubes, they are very salty
ho
ho to you dorens! how was the rally?
nope, no boullion...lots of various spices
could celery salt work?
ji dorens
*hi
it should, it is just salt with celery in it, it will taste different tho :)
brb
e
ooooooooooooohhh so sorry
what a grid this is.
: )
i quite liked the first 3/4s
i'm back, waiting for water to boil
hi mkg
ok, is there an extra word in lickety?
any u word clues? hi all.
Hello again.
hi mkg
hi scrabbs
1 am averaveraging 1 word every 15 min now
ah -- found the last 8-9 combo
I see an ho10 in lickety but not in babble
like slogging thru molasses
ding, water's done :)
an error in babble expert, peri
ho 9 10 are not valid
Where are you these days, Ardilla?
i'm still under 30 words
lickety has the 9-10 combo listed that enable won't accept
ok, but they are real words, very confusing
spain, been here for little over 2 weeks
and I was so pleased with myself for finding them
i think our version of enable considers them as 2 separate
I suspect the unaccepted ho9/10 should be 2 separate words
w ords
We are all pleased with you, Peri!
I believe the one we think should be a 9-10 is actually 2 words whereas the similar 8-9 combo is not
maybe but there have been words accepted that I know are two words or at least hyphenated
thanks Scrabs :)
the ho 8-9 combo is a victorian rail vehicle
yes, the kentucky derby combo is two words; google corrected me
thanks nan!
victorian rail vehicle? what is that? a train word?
9s nullified!
Stuck with 96 to go....will keep staring

we all want our moms when we feel bad
nope, was going to make some for dinner but i didn't bring any with me
potato chips?
i dread going to the spanish supermarket...my electronic translator doesn't work very well in there
yes, i do
the salt from those may make your throat feel a little better
potato chips are one of the main food groups : )
okay, i'll try that...probably gonna go to bed soon
it shouldn't be to bad ardilla, make a list at home, run it through babelfish on your computer then take the list shopping
feel better ((( ardilla)))
congrats beth
see you in the grid tomorrow
last ch 5, please?
thanks nan!
or the et 6? -- keep wanting etcetera
ch + beginning of seal -like mammal
poetic sounding forever
the issue is that castillan spanish is spoken here and babelfish doesn't differentiate between the types of spanish
so a lot of the words don't translate correctly
maybe there will be pictures on the labels?
like restroom is aseo not bano here
what is it?
only seal like animal I see is the killer whale
lol ardilia,there is stuff that makes it into the grid that is still confounding the experts...
not really, i've been trying for a couple days...somethings just don't translate
she's talking about translation problems in spain crossy! lolol
hi crossy
playful furry mammals freshwater
got the et, thanks
yah, the chips are starting to work
ahh never done babble in spain;)
Ardilla, see you can get some Strepsils great for sore throats and they are marketed under the same name in Spain according to the web.
ah -- ty beth

just got it peachy: se6/21 = what you keep quiet qhen you dont'want ppl to know about it... shhh it's a se****
Thanks so much, varumba.
and the 3 following words have got different endings
yw... this grid is tarting to annoy me, lol....
starting even
huh, if you find the 3rd se8/45, let me know ;)
Will do, varumba. Still looking for that one.
cool :)
you mean she sells seashells by the se8/45 ?
no got that 1..... we mean the third se8/45 in the series of things you must no tell
Don't know if it will help but I skipped down to the first se4-5 after the last se8 and it is part of a moment.
oh, so it's 6, 7, 8, 8 , 8 ?
oh peachy i got it!!!! it's liek the first 8/45 of that serie. but change the last vowel into another 1!!
oh, ok, the last 2 of the 8's are the same except the vowel.
snap.
snap bk ;)
i am having trouble with C's and 3rd row R's
everything else i only need a couple of
phantom: search
oh i gave up on the re..... got fed up for now
i got all the C's though so ask away
not listing - dunno what to ask for :)
ah
i have no CE words, so if there are any of those, you could clue them
there's one: ce5/12 = to stope
stop!
wait i found STOP!
stop*
LOL
lol
i have 3 ch - do i need more of those?
and i have 4 cr, all to do with folding.
why dont'you list hurshy? would be a lot easier!
there r 5 ch
and 7 cr
well, i'm not in the mood at the moment. sometimes i am, and sometimes i amn't.
I can't get to lickety...
they all sound like folding... the last 3 ones change the second vowel into another vowel
ouch amelu
good luck without!
if i got the list, i would just get the words without chatting. so if i feel sociable, i don't get the list right away.
thanks varumba!
hi all..back....to get my last 40 from this am
hello all. actually there are 4 folding with same vowels
71 left, so not too bad...
lol hursh.... and y w
hi carlee
you're doing good amelu
hi m9
i have 32 to go
but I only have 6 that sound like folding..?
so if there are 4 folding words and 2 that sound like that, then what is the 7th?
no, there are 3 that sound like it
hmm... it won't take the R ending
Thanks so much, varumba, finally got it. Did you get the 45 right under it?
aha! one sounds like a drunk person saying it?
well the last one has the same beginning as the 2 in front of it... but a different ending
haha, good clue m9
reming me which letters we are doing peachy, am a bit confused
and you said 5 ch's. i wonder if some are chr
Oh, yes, I just wondered if you have the se4-5 under the se8-45?
It's parts of a moment.
yep, got all my se's now.... tryign to get my te done...
Good, me too.
brb
hb
huntington's! woot!
that means i need 7 more ca's... how is that possible!
esp if carjet is not a word!
any1 got the te6/18 that comes after the te6/21?
it's like rapunzel's tower in sound, or the syndrome where you can't control what you say
oh just got it!
lol, do you mean tourette hurshy?
yes.
they all appear to be homonyms, though perhaps i am wrong.
et 6?
well, i have to get to chiro, so, ttfn all
forever, poetically
bye!!!
according to the dico here, it sounds quite different actually

Hmmm Lickety says there are four big ho words between the equine and its plural. Is that all a big lie?
yikes! didn't even look at how many words in the grid before i dove in. i'll be lucky to make it halfway today.
only 1 pair bip HO words.
Poodle, someone said earlier that the Ho9 abd Hi-10 aren't in the grid.
Tis true poodle
ho5ca4 does not work
better be careful tossing around "big ho" in the chog
Well, meant to say ho9 and ho-10 aren't there. Please excuse my typing.
lol good enough
okay, thanks all for info

Hey, pass some over here, Jaq :-)
i thought they did zooz but no one came *sniff*
sends over bounties, mars bars, eyeballs and super sour jellies
the kids on my block are in diapers so i have something to look forward to
If you put a lit pumpkin on your porch, they will come flooding..lol
we had next doors kids and my grandchildren and two 6 year old girls out alone at 7pm (shocked me)
Yummy, many thanks, Jaq :-)
i guess that was my problem -- no pumpkin
Oh i bet they loved being out so late, Jaq..i`m sure they were well looked after.
but my front porch light was on
zooz, they were trully out alone, i asked
yes.. our house is kind of only one facing our side of block on our street.. so we put lit pumpkins out at end of walk..
Oh i see, not so good then really.
that's too young.
far too young
Sounds cool, M9, bet that looked great, at dusk.
it was nice. we also had one on steps... and my husband with caveman hair sitting on porch.
lol m9
LOL
Not sure if they would come to your door then..lol
and I was so proud of my dog. he woofed a bunch when teh first trick or treaters came.. but then he got the routine VERY quickly. He'd give a very short little arf to say someone was coming.. and then come sit next to me quietly
cute
Bless him, sounds like he is well trained.
my daughters dog was offering people their new kitten, he kept picking it up and running to the door with it
he's a total sweetheart. He just turned 2!
LOL, would loved to of seen that, Jaq.
oh dear! did they film it?
cute jacq! I had my dog names "boo" dressed in a little back shirt with neon skeleton on his back...very entertaining for the wee ones! He's about 5 pounds of white lhaso-poodle-yorkie fluff!
she said the kitten looked like it had had a bath by the end of the night
Oh..hahahaha, is that your pumpkin in the icon, M9?
no. off google
aw that would have been cute as anything babs
I carved a Go Diego Go! pumpkin for Gage.
and Elina's pumpkin had aface on one side and said "DIE!" on the other!LOL
And Aiden's had a face on the front and said "boo!" backwards on the back so that it shone the word on the wall behind it.
LOL
LOL, neat.
I need to go run some errands. Nice seeing you zooz! *poof*
bye m9
not seeing any of the second column e's...am I missing some fish?
Hello all!
Take care, M9, nice talking to you :-)

ah i need to refresh
i see, i`m voting DEM
Cos, like your dem icon
neat i am a yellow dog dem myself
heya kaplan
thanks! :)
tomorrow night will suck! lol
but.. in a way.. obama deserves it.. he overreached.
I have never been anything close to a republican, but I think if I had been, I would think the Party had been taken over by lunatic aliens
not necessarily cosd -- polls are exclusively done on land lines
true
cell phones...
sometimes one has to overreach in order to reach ones original goal
i know my state will elect a dem governor so that's something at least
he didn't overreach--there was nothing he could have done- the loony right wing hates him and he corporations back the loony right wing
and that is why i am desprerately trying to get nbt or 1/2 because I am about to go GOTV (get out the vote) for the evening
What state, Cos
always, money gets money
colorado
and then get up at 4:30 to do voter protection all day
i may not be babbling tomorrow afternoon.. im doing GOTV
wtg cosd!
jmc - VA or MD or just DC?
you know it is sad when there is so little worth watching on cable that you pay extra for a classic tv pacv-k so you can pay to watch prograns that you used to watch 30 years ago for frre with rabbit ears....
That's cool. My spouse is pollwatching but I will be pulling a pillow over my head.
national
i know theres a nasty governors race in MD and a good conrgessman in VA who is about to lose
Crossy, I will take TCM to the old age home with me when I go, and just live in the past
lol.. lucy.. there will never be another Lucy
The past that never really was, of course.
what frustrates me is how some people can act like it was obama and the recent congress that caused the recession rather than 8 years of less and less regulation the financial industry
i saw an episode the other day when she was trying to shoo chickens into the pen and she was doing a dance.. and the magazine people came.. cracked me up
hope i get the old twilight zpnes...
Just like Ronald Reagan did. It worked for him, didn't it?
zones
the idiot woman from alaska said yesterday obama had 2 years to fix the economy and he didnt... umm.......... it takes 6-7 years to fix what Bush did.
it will take decades to fix our economies, but it is usually the ordinary joe who suffers the greatest hardship while it's happening
The people I really have a hard time understanding are swing voters. They just blow with the wind.
and the voters blame the ones in office.. tomorrow's greatest loss fo me is... speaker pelosi
perhaps because the choice is like hobsons, between the devil and the deep blue sea
i am so tired of corruption and lies i refuse to vote
i would want to see harry reid lose.. hes an ineffective senator and majority leader but that means sharron angle... ugh.. ill go with reid.
There are some real crazies that are getting farther than they ever should
election talk,,crossy runs...different hand in your pocket is all
yes. sharron angle, joe miller, rand paul
thank god that witch in delaware is going to lose
oh jac i just was reading about how much the suffragettes suffered to get that right -- i vote
i am not a witch i am you
lol
at the rally to restore sanity this one guy had a coyote aand a sign that said "i am not a coyote. I am you"
lol
i always voted jmc, but the past two years revelations about over paid expenses for out members of parliament, and what they cabn claim for has disgusted me, these people cab claim more than a years wages for an ordinary joe, just to decorate a second home
Arrrghhhh!
re
sorry
the corruption goes across all parties at all levels and has sickened me, we can't trust these people to run their own lives the right way but we let them run the country
i remember hearing about those jac!
which two words are not valid in lickety please?
a £20,000 duck pond and house, £21,000 to redecorate a flat, switching residences so their own mortgage gets paid
i have never earned that in any one year, even with two jobs
ho9 and ho 10 but i can't say which ones
If you don't vote, you can't complain
Why isn't jetter a word?
Thank-you, Jmc :-)
i don't complain, i don't trust them period
i agree kap jetter is a word but what can you do?
:/
when i used to bar tend,there was a credo i used to work by.talk about anything except politics and religion..so hows about we all just talk about sex? lol
five more to 1/2 way
LOLOL i agree crossy
hat's sex?
what's lol
Its the second ho9/66 thats not valid, Jmc :-)
i heard about long agojacq..but i got scared and ran away
I don't know what sex is- but I used the f word in the chog when I was quoting an express and was censured
Sex- it's something to do, I guess.
an expression, I mean. I wasn't swearing- just quoting
i know teenagers think they invented it lol
1/2 way and off to GOTV
bye all
91;\
Take care, Jmc.
Sex is for teenagers- and Betty White.
*sniggers out the chog as she thinks about how shocked teens would be to hear about her 20s*
Betty White - the patron saint of gay men :)
mine would be shocked to hear about my 40's LOL
well betty is a machine..cannot keep up with that
Betty White for President!
Yep, but Kap, Betty wouldn't smack you for your quote this morning, I don't think. ; P
Some old ladies think highly of her too
anyone here hear what she said the other day about gay marriage?
No, what?
i have to go for a bit, am supposed to be masking off the woodwork in the bathroom, have fun and fireworks everyone
"I don't care who anybody sleeps with," "If a couple has been together all that time - and there are gay relationships that are more solid than some heterosexual ones - I think it's fine if they want to get married. I don't know how people can get so anti-something. Mind your own business, take care of your affairs, and don't worry about other people so much."
betty White can swear like a truck driver.
Later, jac
as the last golden girl standing,you gotta listen to her lol
Take care, Jaq :-)
Oh, I did hear that.
A role-model for aging. Joan Rivers- an anti-role model.
sers
betty white just signed to be in Men in Black 3 according to imdb
lol,if joan has 1 more face lift she is going to vanish onto a black hole
hi folks (or, crossy, she'd have a beard)
All I did this morning was when people were talking about the origins of some expressions I said that I thought "F****in awesome dude was fairly recent.
excuse me - that's why I don't chat much
i love that woman. i grew up with the golden girls i feel like theyre family. bea arthur died on my 30th birthday.. i cried lol - for bea and for turning 30
np mklein,i always did like your clues best
So someone told me not to use that language in a public chog, and I said I read it in a public book, and hence, I was in my very first chog argument.
I felt really bad that I made someone mad, because underneath my rough exterior I am really a very sensitive person..
lol kaplan,nothing is new under the sun,i love victorian sf and sea fiction and you see it all in there
personally Kap, I felt you were right. I don't see a problem with language here - we're about 99% adults, and the kids know worse words anyway.
Saw that, Kaplan. Some are very uptight and too easily offended. Wouldn't let it worry you. ;)
Hello, NB & JC :-)
Hi, NB and JC
Wow, Julian, I know I've already said it, but that is the BEST picture ;)
we do not care here,it is just as betty white said,hell you want to get married here? do it.you have same rights and obligations as anyone else and all the govt set up as well..a non issue really
That's kind of what I thought. But I swear like Betty White.
In fact, let me go change my icon...
Hello, Jellen! And thank you, Jesse - I think? If that's my best I'm in trouble. :P
I curse like a sailor. It's an effort to restrain myself here. And hello, everyone who said hello :)

No problems, JC ;-)
i'm taking a break from puttying the nail holes in crown molding. I am too old for manual labor, but my wallet doesn't believe me
bethn!! you have squeeked ahead of me in the protein folding!! lol
dr g placed a list link for us at the bottom of this page
(Rolls eyes.) :P
mklein, no worries about forgetting you're in the chat log. We all do it. That's why we leave goodies in the penalty box. : )
we have to keep it stocked,or we would of all starved to death in there long ago
oooh Molly, your icon is pretty.
i am worki ng on two 6666s and slogging thru my first 250 on my work machine i don't know if it is my work computer or if they have asked it to decipher the meaning of life but it has only done 42 folds in 4 days
Oh, mklein? There's someone I haven't seen in a long while - hello, if you're here?
I have to go. I can' tfind my Betty White icon.
goodies? How do I do that\
lol,it is all for the common good.i would love a big one to fold,but i seem to be stuck in a rut of 250,s

Hi. I am usually around, but just don't say much.

Amen Sister Beth!
biab putting rice on for dh's diner
cos i hope you will look at the individuals rather than just vote party. i used to just vote party and now i look at the individuals and vote.
98 left. ugh. wont finish.
mkg i wish that were true, once they get in it's party line all the way
my family (read kids) were mortified when i used a ONE bowling ball in the garden it was a pretty purple swirl. they have no idea how restrained i am by comparison to ricky
beth, did you see my post? i moved here from layton, about a stone's throw from ricky luna's

Sammy, put a automobile there instead.
i must be b list no presidential calls here

dammmmmmmmmmm and i almost beat my poor pc to death because of those words

No stid, that is my phantom of the day.
me too jilly
LOL.. I admire scrapbookers and all.. but I just can't do it myself.
tried it stid
not there
I treated myself to a cricut cutter after I was done with chemo and radiation.... because it felt like Christmas !! I use it a lot too.
o matter how often you try
<-- enjoys digital scrapbooking ;)
:-D tea, we may have to do an art "intervention" for m next time you are in the area!!!
I love to do it - I just don't have lots of time right now. I cannot wait until both kids are in school full time next year.
mother gave me a cricut for my last bday... I LOVE it -- hope to use it some this coming weekend to make bookmarks for all my students that I am leaving...
my fave phantom is research
Hey! I went to Michael's with you... doesn't that count?
I sell Stampin' Up!, so I try not to buy stuff that I cannot use in my workshops, thus no cricut. :(
If I had any calligraphy skills, I probably wouldn't use it as much .... I love Stampin' Up products.... my daughter is going to help me heat emboss my Christmas cards this year.... Sooooo pretty
that's a good phantom, babs!
love embossing!
that was a fun store, m! but you have to USE the fancy papers you buy! LOL
much better at phantoms than words! hah!
Good evening to my fellow babblers! How is everyone?
By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! YAY!

thanks for the help.... Fireworks !!!!
Congrats, diane!!!!!
yay diane!
songs dont have chapters , they have v*****. lose the first letter
thanks so much everyone.... this was a big grid and I had a busy day away from the computer !!
Congrats, diane!!!
thanks Jellen AND thanks for your clue too !!
Thanks so very much, bethn. That was the last one.
ga... did you get your last one yet ??
Thanks for all the help. See you in a few.
woot! ga!
I see that you did !!! Fireworks for you too ??
Yes, thanks m'dear.
there were some nice words in this grid.... and I'm beginning to think like a "babbler" !! My years of crosswords and word games has helped, but this is still a wee bit different... many archaic and foreign words :-))
It went really quickly last night....only had 50 or so for tonight. It DID NOT go quickly tonight. Thanks again.
i wish the flip was EST. i played last nitefor 45 min and knocked out 200+ words but it is too late for me when i have to get up and go to work
early morning tomorrow... another checkup on hubby's repaired retina.... it's been a little touch and go, but the repair "took" and now he's on the mend !!
the longer you play, the more words are readily visible, but there are still a zillion that elude me
I am MST.... and don't often wait for the flip. I know I won't be tonight !
OH! I am so glad to hear that diane. I will send good thoughts your way
Diane, a lot of it is being in such good company. I've been on at night and started feeling funny...asked if there were doctors or nurses on....right away someone came on....and I wound up in ER....there's always someone here for us. Glad you are in the crowd.
thanks so much ! It was a little scary at first, and he still can't see past the gas bubble they put in there to hold things in place, but it will dissipate.
to have severe eye problems is very scary. He ( and you) must have been a wreck
oh my.... how fortunate. They "read" your symptoms and got you moving... so special !!
there are some wonderful people on here
Diane, I missed part of your conversation...do I need to pray and send energy to you or your family?
well, I stay pretty calm, but he was a little frightened. This procedure has only been used for about 5 years.... thank goodness for research
sweet of you ga.... but everything is looking great... except the "eye" in question, and it will be fine. He is very healthy otherwise.
when the medical system works it can do miraculous things. My godson is in training to be an opthamologist. We are very proud
OK. If ever you need me...just ask.
I'm sure you are bethn.
I feel that I can :-)))
I'll bet you are beth !!
Going to check emails....back in a bit.
bye ga
I'll say goodnight then, ga.... as I'm off to bed very soon
me too diane. Night all, see you in the grid tomorrow
I see you are in NJ, bethn.... I have an online friend in Bayonne :-))
