Tim's new word after hearing a guy on the radio is "incentivize".LOL

lol jilli, didn't have time
our weathermen/women are the worst . . . e.g., "during the overnight"

Oh my gosh - what a strange word!
Thank you! x
wtg
yw,
Ah, yes - makes sense. Like a wilde*****.

Funny that the second half of it on its own isn't an accepted word, though?
sorry, jc, deep in the grid. yes, it's a weird one alright.
okay... relisting h's... only one short now.. ha 4, 4, 4, 5, 4, 6, 7, 5, 4, 4, 5, 4, 4, 10, 5, 4, 5, 5, 4 he 4, 6, 5, 6, 4, 6, 5, 5, 4, 5, 4, 6, 5, 4, 4, 5, 4, 6, 4 ho 4, 4, 5, 5, 6, 8, 4, 6, 7, 4, 5, hw 4

I think I've followed your blog on Google, Dee.
awww shucks, j.c... has been going slow, but it's a new thing to me... great fun, but hard work lol
Ah. I have some to post one of these days, when I get a chance - might have to enlist help from a web designer with that. No time!
I can imagine. That is why I used the free blog at blogspot.com.
ma 8/45 and ma 9/60
Yes. That's what I mean...
I have helped friends edit books, but this is my first real attempt at writing anything of substance, besides manuals and teaching materials.
anyone have all the m's.l.. 2 short he4
Oh yes? Books that were published?
yes
I wish I would have written some of the manuals for publishing... did them for a few small business clients.. training for customer service reps, interviewing skills, writing resumes, etc.
well for goodness sakes, ho8? really! enable is very weird
I see. I write - if you can get to my page from me following you? Or hold on...
here are my m's... 2 short... ma 4, 4, 5, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 7, 6, 6, 7, 7, 8, 4, 4, 5, 4, 6, 5, 4, 5, 5, 4...
feel like clueing it, granny?
put your site address here or in your profile...
Link at end of bio, Dee...
It is now, yes.
k checking
Several of my clips are there, etc.
jilli, more truthful
thanks, granny! Weird indeed.
Ah. But grammatically incorrect, Jill - you'll be as surprised as I was that Enable enables it. :P
I'm never surprised at enable any more, JC!
I see...
I didn't realize you were such an animal advocate!
brb, distinctly in need of a drink after that ho8. pfft!!!!
Oh yes, Dee...
anyone find my missing m's?
Watch the clip in that section.
I will check it out

Oh, thought you meant that I did! :P
Now can you understand my confusion?
Oh!

ok 3 short from r in the 4th column: ra 4, 6, 5, 4, 5, 6, 5, 5, 4 re 4, 4, 6, 5, 6, 4, 4, 6, 5, 7, 4, 5, 6, 6, 7, 6, 7, 5, 6, 6, 4, 5, 6, 6, 5, 5, 6, 5, 6, 6, 7, 5, 4, 4, 6, 4, 6, 6, 6, 7, 6, 4 rh 4 ro 4, 4, 6, 4....
There is more than one clef in here?
yes.. I think it's short for briar.
I found one plus the plural of it - if that's what you mean by 'clefs'?
yes
Hmmm?
I meant the one clef.. but sing and pl
sorry
Ah, ok.
funny.. I looked it up.. and here I always thought it meant he was from the briar patch..
No. Wondered why you were saying that?
who was from the briar patch, m9?
you looked brer up?
i must have been getting brer rabbit and peter rabbit mixed up!LOL
Brer Rabbit?
Ah...
Uncle Remus stories, JC
So is Brer Rabbit Brother Rabbit?
yes. apparently so
oh goody :)
it's like a mixture of frere and brother!LOL
grrr one r short... few more minutes and I am going to have to pack this in til the morrow...
203/200 -- over halfway so I can go to bed!
Yes, Jill. Familiar with them from my childhood.
good going jilli!
And I hope when I wake up and get here I will see Lickety's list
I'm at 272/131... was hoping for 100 to go... but I think I shall give up before then
agree jili...
362/41
I'm just too tired tonight, not getting anywhere, off to bed, goodnight all
wd, m9, and all who are so brilliant
You're doing so much better than I am, m9. :/
goodnight flosey -- me too.
I'm stuck at 248/155 now. Sigh.
Goodnight/morning everyone! *poof*
you have all the ov's J.C.?
Good night, Jill.
No idea, m9.
still missing one 8 and a bunch of 7's...
Without a list I don't know where I am...
I'm missing 2 8's.
there are 9 ov's
how many r's do you have m9?
Then I must be also, as I only have two ov8s.
And two ov9s...
I've grayed out the lower 2, but only have 16 in upper corner, and EIGHT on the 22 tile!
Just found another ov8 that I'm kicking myself for not finding much earlier. (Rolls eyes).
Then I need two more ov words.
I have seven now...
do you end with 2 8s?
No. An 8 and then a 9...
(saw the ov challenge before I left so had to meet it -- have all the ov words now) *repoof*
there's 2 8's after the 9
Must be nice, Jill. :/ Feeling even more stupid...
she just had to rub it in!LOL
Got one!
Of course. :(
yay... the other is just one cons off!
As if I needed to feel any worse? Sigh. :/
Hmmm?
last letter.
My last two ov words are ov9,78 and ov8,55.
I don't know what I'm missing?
Got it!
Thank you! :)

pity, jc. you missed dee's gala performance
Not to worry Volley - people who don't want to look at it, don't have to. Its a mistake anyone could make, :-)
Hmmm? What was that?
As if I can't look back. :P
ty so much soodle!!
Oh that? That's nothing - who hasn't accidentally pasted the wrong thing somewhere or another? I've done much worse in that regard. :P
anyone have all the t's or s's
awww ty jc!
nope, not yet
However, Dee...
down to 27 left
nope
As the Queen of Faux Pas's, I can be generous!!!
Order in the court! I sentence you to six solid months in the Penalty Box! :P
gotta love the however...
lol!!!
nice dee!
with chocolate and champagne?
Hmmm. Now would that be punishment? ;)
get fatter?
No. It would be gratitude though - so yes. Thank you for all that wonderful help! ;)

I had most of those, but still - any little bit is always helpful. ;)

wow I am really short on the sh's
Hi all !! Anyone know who if any has clues posted since lickety is down...?
sh4,5,7,5,5,5,7,5,6,7,6
no one has finished yet lexi
hi Lexi, looks like Rose and Volley will have populated the chat
morning all
bummer\
hi Spritely
:P lyn, and how are you? drowned yet?
hey spritey
hi sprite
Still afloat down here. How are you Rose?
hello sprite. Terra filled in your spot when you weren't here.....
hah found a jiddish word right away. One day I am going to learn that language.
well the driveway is still th5, back lawn gives a new meaning to the word "swamp"
hi rubyfoo, yes am sorry, had a couple of rough days. Especially sorry to have missed Annie's birthday.
are you OK now? I didn't know it was Annie's birthday :(
time to start breeding crocodiles, rose?
lol, sprite, just the frogs and yabbies
it's a lot like Dutch, n'est-ce pas?
it's a start ;)
Thats what you get for living at the bottom of the hills Rose - at least down here it drains into the Bay
hello lynxx, and here it drains into the lake
the word, the animal or the weather?
hi Ruby
sh x 12 granny
thanx dee
so far...that is..
yiddish and dutch
oh! Yes indeed. It is sort of in between german and dutch.
came across a jiddish saying yesterday: Man tracht and God lacht. Men try and God laughs.
I like that
and = und, of course, grin
how similar is Flemish?
yeah, puts things in perspective, doesn't it
very. Flemish has most words similar to dutch, but it sounds softer and gentler and many words they use are old-fashioned for dutch. In fact, Flemish and dutch are so similar that many people forget they are two different languages all the same. And sometimes the same word has a whole different meaning. Like 'poepen', which in dutch is 'to poo' and in Flemish is a very rude word for doing the sexual act.
too funny. It's like the Fr word "baiser" which really means to kiss, but is used in a much more vulgar way. Husband's Fr teacher said "Never use it!"
grin, they don't tell the dutch kids about that! Will inform my children to never use it either. What can they say for 'to kiss'?
dee, can only find one sl, same for you?
embrasser
only one he 4
mmmm ok... so embraser isn't the same as to hug, with the arms around eachother but without the mouths in action?
se x 22
I have 6 he4's
even me!
this is a yummy grtid!
had better get dressed, see you in a little while

Hi all. Yes sprite, it is, and if you know Flanders U& Sawn's songs, it's mentioned in 'I'm' a Gnu'!
Oops. Extra apostrophe crept in there.
I don't, but now I am going to look that up :) Hi hydra, great to see you.
lol at sprite and granny. Also ty for the stats for the 10, which I shamelessly monkeyed, so that's one long word today!

Waves from PB. Hi ruby!
1 to go
lol sprite, fresh coffee and chocolate brownies.
go rose gooooo!
great way to start my day, Sally :D
that is amazing, granny! I have a million to go (at least it feels like) and don't have any of the 8's, 9's or 10!
for a load of biggies, rubyfoo, start with not under. I just went from almost no biggies to lots of them.
FIREWORKS!!!!thanx for your help sprite, even tho you make me laugh at highly inappropriate times
lol rose! Glad I could be of help... in both cases ;)
yay granny!
and gratz!
such a feeling of satisfaction. will list the s's in profile as dee's list is incomplete
perhaps you can copy the Ts from me and put the whole list in your profile?
sen or
might save people looking up 3 profiles for the list, I mean.
you are missing an H, marigold
put a H in the middle, Marigold...lol
ok, will do
lol dizgrannie, snap
lol
Well, both valid :-)
you rock, rose :)
oh darn you are right, Sally, thanks
:-)
Hello, All, yay, a nice big grid :-)
hey zooz *hugs* How are you today?
morning all....
hi carlee :)
Not too bad thanks, Spritey.
Hello, Carlee.
{{carlee}} and {{zzoozz}}
hi sprite
Hi zooz. Nice but big!!
zooz and ruby..morning
(the grid, not you)
LOL
good for you, zooz. Nothing like a big and fun grid to lighten up our days, right? ;)
well, I am both, Sally, lol
Not wrong, Spritey :-)
now that the time changed, it gets dark so early!!
oh, thats not to your size, Spritey, i meant for the big grid size.
it seems so silly that it's a week different in Europe from the US!
You are very nice sprite, and so is zooz. But on this interweb thingy we all have no idea how big we are! (trying to hide under desk)
both are correct, zooz ;)
Yes ruby, you would think America would toe the line, wouldn't you :-)
LOL, Sally
not sure my desk could take that from me, Sally, lol
somebody said yesterday that she was really a prisoner on death row! hahah
Who, sprite? I would never have guessed.
Wonder if you are allowed to play Babble in prison?
somebody has that in her profile, lol
Well le4 just say i can eat anything and i mean anything, and i will not put any weight on wh4 so ever.
it's a funny idea; we could all be making up identities -- role-playing. Maybe I'm really 21 and gorgeous!
oh my...how..intriguing...was going to say interesting..but no..that not rght
You can go off some people zooz.
:-)
am fully willing to share my flesh with a skinny one!
I'll take some!!!
*grabs knife*
oh my, thats drastic..lol
Take mine, take mine!!
enter
whoops, sorry
I knew rubyfoo was yearning to join us in the PB, Sally
it was the brownies....
FIREWORDS!!!! thanx everyone for all the help...xxx
yeah they are great. He4, have some.
and the company, of course!
wtg dizgrannie!
i have se4 on tv surgery of liposuction, not a pretty sight.
yay diz!
WTG Diz!
eewwww
It always sounds dangerous to me (the liposuction, not the brownies).
*~*~*GLITTERY POMPOM TWIRL*~*~*for diz
no sucking on my lipo, thank you ve4 much. It took ages to build this body!
yay carlee!!
lol, sweet.
love your pompom twirls, carlee
why do i get a yay????
i still have almost 300 words to get
just because you are you, carlee. Being our wonderful cheerleader!
right, rubyfoo?
I thought it was you (didn't see the end)
I always imagine, Carlee, all dressed up in her glitter doing her pom pom twirls, when she types those words..lol
okay...my daughter ..whenever she sees me give them out..."mom...u are so gay...." or "such a dork"
but you deserve a yay just for your cheerful presence!
sheezzz rubyfoo, stay with it, I gave you such a beautiful way out!
no glitter ...no pompoms...wait.i have one...a blue one..
lol carlee, I bet. I think it is our jobs as parents to be gay dorks.
okay, s's and t's in my profile.
rmcc how are u???
wtg grannyrose :)
(((carlee)))) doing well thanx, and you?
yeesh...i am ok... the battle continues....but i am ok...
atta girl!!!
( my husband is on his way to being an ex)
wait 'til your kids get old and you start to get raised eyebrows
btw, if i've made a mistake in the list, i'm sorry, ok?
*hugs carlee gently*
no..sprite...its...really...ok... i saw him the other day....there is just "nothing" there...
my kids raise their eyebrows at me on a daily base. I do it right back. No problem.
oh, dear, carlee. i understand, really hard times ahead, my dear. been th5, done that, got the t-shirt. ain't doin' it again
no attraction.only irritation...he irritates me beyond...
hahah sprite
might be hard times...but they are going to be happy hard times...
my sympathy, carlee, for what you must be going through
Carlee, I have always thought that you can live with someone if you no longer love them, but not if you no longer like them.
in the dictionary next to di**, it shows many of our exes!\
I wish you all kinds of happiness and relaxation, carlee, and freedom of irritation! You will have loads of energy once you are free of that, I think.
sorry, rough talk!
no liking happening here... irritation..annoyance...impatience... pity
know wh4 you mean. when my ex died earlier this year, had a tough time trying not to gloat....but th5 you go....
when I got sick, 20 years ago, my ex, from whom I'd been divorced for a long time, wasn't even sympathetic to our son!
well..i doubt I;ll gloat...he does have good qualities...but he just beat me down so often... and he is good to the kids....
I don't wish my ex any ill, and in fact I have tried to bring him and my son together again, but I think he's a complete (insert rude word of your choice).
arse
my ex even on his death bed, denied the right for my sons for me to be at his funeral, to comfort them
I never say a bad word about my ex to our son, but he still says many about me!
well, my ex-boyfriend (not husband) was an alcoholic and agressive in words and with his hands (not with me, the latter, though) and he could be a total ass, but th5 was a lot of good in him too and I never forgot that.
and it's 40 yrs!!
Not much he could do about it, though, granny!
they are odd beasts at times
some people are like that, rubyfoo. They cannot take responsibility for their part of the divorce etc and feel the need to keep blaming the other party. Very hurtful, but also total nonsense.
that is horrible, granny
same he4, ruby, in fact my ex's family have so poisoned my eldest son's mind that he hasn't spoken to me for 4 years.
( and i hate when i start re entering words i have already put in..)
so very sad, rose :(
that is so sad rmc
sally, the last words my eldest spoke to me was " don't even think of coming, or I will throw you out"
well at least you can join us in the PB now, carlee
that is so awful, granny!
we are developing a nice coffeeklatsch in the pb!
Oh, sad, granny, but ha** hurts the people feeling it in the end, not you.
oooh... i didnt have that 7...how cool is that...gee..when i drop a word unknowingly at least it is a good one
ah, well, wh4 can i do? he's 35 now, and a fully grown man.
wtg carlee
(((rmcc)))
why isn't sterno a word?
* smiling at you babe * and hugs all around
nothing you can do, rose, except living on the way you feel is right, and keeping your he5 open to him. Things can change, and may they will. But if they don't, at least you have done the right thing and you are not consumed by ha4.
ruby, change the last letter
I thought that might get me into the pb, painlessly!
bbl, have to do something about dinner
{{{rmcc}} lovely to see u again
take-out?
bye rose :)
order in?
can't do that here. There are no Chinese or even pizza places that deliver!!!
{{grannyrose}}
Do you still have no long words ruby, just found one that is an easy one if you want a clue.
i have 1 9 and 1 8
yes, a clue, please. 183 words and nothing bigger than 7!
didn't you see my clue earlier, rubyfoo, about starting with 'not under'?
en 8/45: what you do to someone at a coronation (and plural for a 9)
menopause causes u to ov*..and plural
I tried, sprite, but couldn't find it
ov8 and plural..pardon me
ho6 & 7 larger than normal stinging insect buzz buzz
ty ladies. Of course, at 21, I'm too young to know about that. Falls over laughing
ok..sally..the last coronation was before i was born.....enslave would be the only word i can think of there
consume too much x 3, eavesdrop, the ones carlee just clued, too close and too tidy.
I have 5 ov8's and 2 ov9's if that helps. Hello again
wow, ty sprite!
oh boy, thank you all!!
carlee: you put them on a very big and rich chair...
Hello, Lynxxx :-)
Just think what you put them on carlee.
yvw :) Hi lyn, wb.
wb lynxx!
thank you...got 4 for that
np :-)
and the 8/9's
I just guessed on someone who is too tidy (not me, of course)
also a whole bunch of biggies in the coat department, ma x 6.
hello all - came in just at the right time - got a few words
hi ursh
hi ursh, wtg!
hi Ursh
gm ursh
i dont get the coat department though??
except for the old-fashined fur
maybe think of the ledge above the fireplace
i got 2 earlier for that one....
or the outer layers of the earth, maybe. Or what a bird does with his wings when he settles.
th5 are 6, carlee. Just play with the endings.
stil only 2 for that
h works very well in place of the m
morning all
hi Kallia
ok..up to 4
gm kalia
sending you some pudding for breakfast!
there are little ones too Carlee
insert an extra vowel for the other 2, carlee.
hi Kallia
near the front or the back sprite ( its not yet even 7 am here...)
yay, half!!!!
near the front, carlee.
Congrats ruby!
never thought I'd do it but just monkeyed four ha's
ha4/5, ha6/21 and hat/12
monkeys are learning too, rubyfoo
aside from the ordinary ha's
smarter than their mom and they never raise eyebrows. (do monkeys have eyebrows?)
oh yes they do! Imagine a chimp's face... see?
oh yes, just pictured it
btw, do all dogs smile?
my kitties do :)
no, some dogs are really bad humoured
ruby has the silliest smile, showing only her bottom teeth, really goofy
How many today please 303 and slowing down!!!
100 more to go, DTins
403 and that's amazing
another 100 to do DTins
TY Sprite
yvw and good luck
hore
Sorry
woot finally finished the Ss.
Ok 135 more words to find, taking a break.
see you later, zooz
Hi and good day. There is no list today?
hi Bichon, no Lickety
hi bichon. VolleymomDee posted a list, and in grannyrose's profile you can find the Ts and Ss
My English grammar teacher would turn in her grave at the comparative endings allowed on Babble - like the ho 8/45 for instance. Stamps foot and has a little rant.
I would agree with her - very awkward
I couldn't agree more, Sally. In Babble I try everything now, however silly.
And it would jar on my ears if someone used it.
ho 8?
ho8?...clue perhaps ( back with coffee flavoured with a drop pf vanilla from my baking cupboard to treat myself)
from ho6 not deceitful
More truthful.
ty lynxxx
At least, I suppose that's the meaning since as far as I'm concerned there is no such word!
damn..i tried the EE ending in there too...babble didnt take it...
do we know what the 10 is?
yes, absolutes, cannot take a comparative, like unique
vanilla is such a consoling scent. ha10, carlee. Afrikaans word.
ha 10/91
and....so we have any idea beyond ha10 what the ha10 might be?
African animal, carlee.
any large African antelope of the genus Alcelaphus, having ringed horns that curve backward: some species are endangered.
ok...my face just did a sprite eyebrow raise at that...gone hunting
So now you know "-)
Got it, thank you
I've actually seen them in Africa
If you get the ha 4/5 first, which is a kind of deer, you are half way.
the bodypart/organ of love minus one letter, combines with animal with a double vowel in the middle.
yay..got it:)
thanks sally
still not halfway tho
I'm finding it particularly difficult to chat today without using words in the grid :-)
i...am ignoring that
lol always that way with big grids. We are more forgiving with big grids, also, so don't worry ;)
with 403 words to find...if i drop one in conversation....how much closer will they be to finishing...not near as if was a 100 grid
Actually sometimes I don't notice until other draw attention to the word, then I immediately look back to find it! That does more ha** than good, in that case.
yeah but it is so much fun!
like the 7 i dropped earlier that i had yet to find
and the ha4 you used in the same post, carlee ;)
hah, finally B befuddled!
harm or hate sprite?
lolllllllll the last one, hun
as i have seen both in the chog
( cus..crap..if they been dropped..they been dropped :)
*Averts eyes from carlee's postings*
i just pick em up and drop them again :)
( but not in a bitty grid)
95% done. But now it gets evil! I am repeating myself with the words I type...
now..if bitty in here...shoot me
nah never, carlee. You are here to stay.
:) yay
am a re5 to the end :)
oh, ty carlee!!
if there was more of me then plural
already one :-)
sorry, already done!
see..see...it hadnt been dropped..i didnt say it <<<all chuffed up like a big girl all proud and everything>
Yes - but you did draw attention to it!! Can't win.
i clued it....sheesh
brb
<carlee slumps away >
*calls carlee back* Here, have a brownie
<sniff>
thankyou sprite
<sticks tongue out at sally>
Back!! Sticks tongue out back and waggles hands in air at carlee.
hmmmi have been thinking about making brownies..but with allt he choclit in the house from ahllowe'en
No choclit in this house :-( Sad. We don't "do" hallowe'en in the UK really.
Hallowe'en is once a year, but choclit is for life :-)
silly Sally, chocolate isn't for life - a week at the most

Diving into the M words now. Have 10 out of the 26.

Congrats sprite! Still have 134 to find.
Congrats Sprite
I think I will put up the full list in my profile. For those who want one.
TY Sprite - I would probably use in the morning
thank you ((Sprite))
hello everyone
Hello Mom!
((Lynxxx)) good evening
hey Mom :)
Hi Sprite
Maybe we should play it differently- finding the words that AREN'T in the grid.
hi Kap
:)
morning Kaplan
Well, myriapod isn't in it today.
My new favourite word :-)
and ho6.21ne4.4 isn't accepted
I like the z word-zyzzl something that means weevil. I will look it up later.
ok the list should show now, in my profile, right under today's writeup
TY again Sprite
thanks Lynxxx, gave me two
my pleasure. Got to leave you now, have fun with this great grid. *hugs*
thanks Sprite
And I don't think we've ever had Xoloitzcuintle (had to check spelling!)
have a good day Sprite
((Sprite)) enjoy your day
later sprite...{{hugs}}
Also with a grid like this, folks will be in the PB all day!
They have, Kaplan.
bye sprite.
i am just babbling in the PB on my laptop kap
back in a bit, time to make breakfast
:)
hi yu`ll has anybody posted stats for today yet.
sprite just did
sprite just this minute put them in her profile, ron
ty.
Sterno and novy not accepted.
what does novy mean kaplin?
Short for Nova Scotia lox--people just say novy. I think it's a cultural thing. It goes on bagels.
w's done :)....first letter greyed
I think it's not really a word.
Prob counts as a proper noun.
When th 4/5 are in the grid, the penalty box needs to be closed for the day. Not enough room in there.
Ack, words like th 4/5
morning moll's...we have an internet cafe set up in the pb today
Or even words like th 5/12 :-)
and you now need to pay it a visit Molly lol
hello all
That's lovely. I'm going to roll a keg in there too.

I mean, roll a keg in th t/12.

Sprite has put a list on her profile Annie

Sprite is so nice to do that but your words do no get put down in alphabetical order like Lickety's
good morning TO
Hi Owl, No No No kidding
No, no, 403 TO.
hi TOwl

Those of us with Macs can't use Lickety Expert Annie, only can make use of the list. So I am grateful to sprite for filling in the gaps.

Do you think I should leave the excitement of the re words till last, or get them over with?

Does anyone know where I can find a list? VolleyDeeMom's list only has 310 words.
morning babblers
Luv sprite has one in her profile but it doesnt seem to be complete either
thanks Nono
Sprite's list seems to be missing 3 words
and i think they are t's she only has 61, should be 64
thanks that's helpful info.
but better than volleydee's
I knew we wouldn't have a Lickety list today because of the extra words in yesterday's list. Too bad it's such a big grid without Lickety
yeah i feared that as well this one is huge
yeah, haven't had one this large in a while. And of course I'll be gone for a good part of the day
big grids mean very quiet chog. boo
{{trif}} how's FIona?
*Fiona
she is doing quite well, other than a splitting headache. Please, call her secondo here in babble land,okay?
np sorry
not at all! it's my weird paranoia, after all!
the biggest issues she faces now are infection in the wound site, and after fears of walking out in the dark, and the woods. can't blame her though!
also, rumors are FLYING at school - to hear the kids tell it, she is one step away from the ICU....lol
oh the halls of gossip are alive I'm sure
I feel bad for her because now she will have those fears; all because of some idiotic (I assume) kid
I feel bad for her because now she will have those fears; all because of some idiotic (I assume) kid
oops
i did phone the school to tell someone what really happened, so they could keep things in check. we have the day off today, but she will be back tomorrow and I am sure she will spend the day explaining it a million time
I agree, judy. and thanks so much for asking after her. you are so kind to remember!
will they ever be able to find out who did it?
did she see anyone?
I wanna shake the living crap out of that idiot
we filed a police report, but not much hope there. My bet is on the gossip factor -- whoever it was will eventually tell someone, and they hopefully will tell us. no, she didn't see anyone. but those kind of idiots always manage to trip themselves up, don't they?
I sure hope so. He'll just keep doing stupid things like that until he's hauled in and gets his a** kicked
ugh -- just found my least favorite bird in the grid -- the one that keeps eating all the fish out of our pond!
we have a goldfish pond too. Thx for the clue...knew immediately which bird
they are pretty to look at, I'll grant them, but oh, they are greedy piggies! and so RUDE! they always kick over my plants
*the bird watcher is keeping quiet on this one*
come watch them decimate my pond - you may have a slight change of attitude!
have greyed two tiles! woot!
go Trif!
I put the ts in my profile. I am missing one, a 7.
take it there isn't a list at the moment, then?
Hi BR and Hursh!
anyone got the points total? One word out, a t7. monkeys struggling.
there is, but both sprites and volley's have gaps
i have 1 t7/36 pl of tr 6/24-opposite of a bass tone, kinda
what's oracle seven, dachef?
got that one. Final word now driving me nuts. Oracle of Seven is big top secret (!) media project launching next year.
thanks -- but you can tell US....no one is listening, lol
I have 2 of the 9's both ov, help with other 2 pls
i think you forgot to include a te 4/5 in your t list, brabble, between the 3 6/18s and the 6/21, toward the end.
en9 = to coronate.
ty will look
ty Dachef
te 7/36; te 7/28; th 7/32; th 7/32; th 7/32; th 7/32; th 7/32; tr 7/36; tr 7/28 --- the t 7s I have

yes
i'm stuck on that first 7/36, brabs
most of sprite's dog and unit of electrical resistence
resistance resitence
i don't know sprite's dog, luckily i do know metric prefixes :) thanks
did you see my note below about the 4/5 you accidentally left off your list?
yes
ok cool
got it. The t's missing from sprites list are: te5/10 ; te4/4 and te7/28
what t am I missing Dachef?
i think dachef said he was missing it also.
help with last 9 pls
we may not be missing the same one?
well i got my list to match yours, so i know you and i are missing the same one.
that's not very helpful is it :)
I have been looking forever
i think its a th7/32 your missing.
*you're
I have six th 7
so there are 7?
aside from the 2 spellings of play house, the preposition, promises of harm, insides of necks, and king's seats?
oops. kings'
yup - 7 x th7's.
thanks
nope, im wrong. Miscounted.
there are only six.
lol
apropos of nothing, what's the 10?
there are 3x te7's.
got there in the end!!
good that one is it
unit of resistance, like certain bird, and...
ha 10/91
aha!
the 10 is ha10. African mammal (afrikaan spelling).
let me know if you want a clue brabs, i found the te
hmmm... african mammal.... hmmmmmmmmm
just tell me where in the list please.
i think this is the first time I have ever seen you need a clue BR!
between ____vision and its plural
thanks
nbt, nbs, more than halfway...need to run over to the church, but HATE to leave such a big grid, as I know when I come back it will be just me entering the same words again. dread
dementia requires an accommodation
I think I have asked for clues maybe five times -- hurshy has given me th 5 of them
speaking of church, one of our members saw a BRILLIANT church quip this week - outside of a church down south -- "if you aren't feeling close to God, guess who moved?" LOVE that
got the 10! morning all
Hello
I think it's an antelope
morning hootowl
wow made it over halfway but, alas, only 3 greyed boxes :(
so how gap-ish are these lists that exist?
okay, gotta run. secondo needs me to wash her broken head, and then it's off to church. good luck with this big bad boy everyone!
although i don't know why i would be in a hurry to finish, nothing to do at work anyway...
I am more than 1/2 way and only 2 greyed boxes!
i have found 350.
bye Trif! Hugs to Secondo.
awesome Hursh!
I really cannot say, hurshy ... did not use them much. Sprites is more complete
are you done, brabs?
6168 points
yes
WOOHOO BR!!!
thanks
sigh. congrats, but it would have been fun to work together :) lol
congrats BR
WTG, BR!

Hi beachboggle.
Good morning! What a wonderful grid to start the day. And with my new glasses, I can see it :)
I beg to differ with Enable regarding "bleh".
hi ch1212... I know... nice huge grid
9 t words to go to finish up t's
go, carlee!
At least there is no ti4 Carlee. For once.
Have to share this. I have very bad vision and need strong glasses with special ground lenses, etc. So I'm used to paying $400+ for a pair. This time, when told new glasses would cost me $850, I researched, and ordered them direct from an online supplier. They arrived yesterday, fit fine, and the total cost? $137. That's right. Wooooo!
howdy folks. long time no see!
good for you ch1212
That is awesome, ch!!
yay...nice one ch
ok..missing 2 t words
My glasses are similarly priced: $400+
I should do the research too
yaa for ch1212!! my wife has 20/400 vision,so i can relate
Great deal ch!
though glasses are of no use for her as she gets floaters and growths that must be lasered off once ever 6 months:/
Well beach, check it out. I picked one with a good business rating, good history, and is one several optometrists order from direct. As long as you have your fitting measurements done correctly, no problem! I have astigmatism, and -9.50 PLUS need progressive bifocals, plus high index
Hello, Takuma :-)
i'm back with rice in bowl
amazing how when I come back after a few minutes I see easy words I missed before
Ditto, Judy. Ardilla, lots of broth with that rice too!
crossy checks his deoderant....
Sorry, crossy. Just read your last.
Hey Takuma. How are things in Gatorland?
Not getting enough attention Cross? Carlee, pass him some Misty Jack.
(((Judy))) hiya
mmm misty jack....
Hey BB!!!
somehow the carol of the bells is stuck in my head
passing crossy a jug of misty jack...
ok..i am still missing 2 te's
what's misty jack?
and...i cant for life figure out which ones
LOL ardilla! The version that gets stuck in my head is the "Old Ones Are Here" parody to Carol of the Bells.
really hard to get those grey boxes today
Ardilla, did you ever see the Saturday Night Live where they did twisted Christmas carols?
I am missing a t/7 = i have te/7 x 2, th/7 x 6 and tr/7 x 2= any clues?
missed a lot of tv cuz i live overseas
I think it's a tr7 Anike
hi, all. I'm getting a late start today. any list avaialable?
Twisted Carol...Leave me alone, please go away, I'm doing fine, I am okay...PLEASE DON'T TOUCH ME!!! Merry, Merry Merry Christmas.
you are not missing much ardilla 90% of it is crap
lol molly
Anyway, Carol Of The Bells is better than Tubular Bells.
thx for the heads up, crossy
i really want some BAAACCCCCOOOONNN :(
there is one i heard about,they toss a bunch of beautiful young engaged couples on some island and see how many future marriages they can bust up as they runaround neeked everywhere lol
mmm bacon...
Cross, whatever are you talking about?
I'm looking thanks Judy

Up from the sea, from underground Down from the sky, they're all around They will return: mankind will learn New kinds of fear when they are here
Scary scary scary scary solstice...
ch1212, hi!!!
still enjoing my book, ch1212?
wow... :|
Hi Angelsong! Yes, very much so, my dear!
Now I have ardilla's 'carol of the bells' in my head, except the parody about the Old Ones ;)
Good one ch. Although I don't find Solstice scary. But cute lyrics.
just came across some old pictures of our family before we moved to canada from the U.K anyone want to see crossy at 2 years of age? lol
Look to the sky, way up on high There in the night stars are now right. Eons have passed: now then at last Prison walls break, Old Ones awake! They will return: mankind will learn (I figure if I have to have the lyrics bubbling in my head then so should you....)
Angelsong, did you post the link in your profile for other Babblers to see, and of course, purchase?
I'm in the grid, can't find my words, not enough clues, this is absurd. Four hundred three words! Crazy, crazy, crazy Babble!

Hello Everyone!
Hi Car.
hi car
201 down, 202 to go
I am right there with you...195 down...208 to go...
Hello, teeming masses! 200 down.
does someone have the list?
Oh no. Giant grid and no list. Grrrr.
hello all been months and i just dropped in a nice big grid!
hi, I'm in the same ballpark, 187 left
Hiya, Onyx! Welcome back.
list in jacula's profile and i think at bab. anon
Hi Onyx!
thanks, Nono, I'll remember that for later
thanks. I may just not get very far today. Aiming for half.
Hi All! I am starting the grid...as I can not move too much after my long run this morning, I am glad its a biggie.
No List? Even more Awesome!
hi Red!
Clearly, you are a sadist, Red.
just like when i began playing this game and you had to solo or get and give clues
I never use the list til I have only about 40-50 left, so this is to my advantage! plus I am really sort of stuck on couch, my legs are hurting.
it is just too confusing when there are tons of blanks!
Have all of you Americans voted yet?
I voted, for the first time in forever in person...
you?
I have and good afternoon to all
i am procrastinating but getting ready to do it
Hi Mom!!!
Affirmative. Then ran mucho errands afterwards.
((Red)) hello. how are you?
I am well, sore from running...camping on the couch to do the grid for the rest of the day!
it will take the rest of the day to do it. I am sorry you are sore
Ice up, Red.
it's ok, it was a 12 mile run that seemed to go on forever, very frustrating with pace, so I am glad to sit.
my dream is to be able to run again....
Hi Onyx
I rode with my sweetie to the polling place and then walked home
mine too onyx!
hi mom
nice one mom, exerciseing the right to vote and your legs too!!
it is about 3/4 mile from our house
hadn't thought of it that way Red
funny red
Hi how many T 7s are there and what are they please
Hi Ron, not sure, sorry
Blech. I count 11, Ron.
Well, I have 64 words now, so no idea... alot?
I only have 3 t 7's so far
te7/28, te7/36, te7,28, th7/32 x6, tr7/36, tr7/28

hi Nono, beautiful autumn scene.
hi ((Mom))
tre
e
ty red, its from a few years ago here in the area. colors where no where near as nice this year
hi dorens!
((Doren)) hello
ah! there i go again. how is everyone?
hi dorens
good here, Doren, how about you?
well, that is a very lovely photo, no matter the year.
taking a much needed break from the madness, and find madness in babble.... a huge grid with no lickety=increased stress
true, Sprite has one in her profile
why no lickety?
thamk you all fireworks at last.
you have school today? all the school's are closed here
for election day
congratulations Ron
yes we do have school on election day, always
YAY, Ron!!!!
wow, We do have school today.
so many of the schools are used for polling places.
the stats in sprites profile is missing 1 TE 7/28
Congrats Ron
so as to not go to school on Monday and be off Tuesday, they close both days
thanks Ron, will remember that
No school here, that's where we vote
Halfway and grayed the first R. That was my goal. Everything else is gravy.
that makes sense, here we use churches and libraries, but when I was a kid I recall they did have voting at my school while we had classes...I think they are more careful abotu who arrives at schools these days.
oh they are for sure Red
they vote here.. just keep the polling places as separate as possible
Does anyone know why is there no Lickety today?
ve
f
some school districts here have no school in elementary schools where the voting takes place, but school in middle and high school
Hi Inge!
because Lickety is out voting?
Erda, when Lickety has extra words in the grid like yesterday, it takes him a day to reset the program he uses
hi Inge
so I am told
Ty Mom!
Lickety is in Australia.
no lickety today because there were extra words in his list yesterday, that knocks his auto progam off
you're welcome Erda
is that true Nono?
Erda, there is a list in Sprite's profile
There is also a list in Bab Anon.
Haz said what Nono said yesterday, so I suppose that is what occurs.
yes bichon it is true, he came in one day asking what the extra word was the day before and explained it
Yes, Mom, I know. Of course, it WOULD happen on a 400-word grid...
I thought the same thing Erda
403 Erda, those 3 are important!
and on a day it seems i have a thousand things to do
Suuuure
LOL, I have no plans but sit on couch, so I am good.
at least i have the voting out of the way
I think I'll go and sit for a spell as well. ((Hugs)) to all of you
There's no way I'm getting to finish this grid, list or no list
i did indeed vote.
I did an absentee ballot because I was supposed to be going to CA today, but I'm not going cause my hubby is going to be on Millionaire next week
neat Bichon!
omg Bichon, has it already taped?
Way cool, Bichon!
No, taping next week. Show on in late June!!!
oh you will have to remind us all when it is time for it to air
I will. Everyone seems to have it on at a different time of day
Phffth. Bichon will be too busy travelling the world and spending the million by then.
ours airs at 5:30 pm
When was the last time anyone won a million on that show
I dont think anyone has won it since Meredith started doing it
oh I hope he wins! very exciting.
I think the goal is to get to the $100,000 question and then walk with your earnings
i remember Regis having a couple of million winners
yeah thats pretty much the goal with the new format
We went to sit in the studio audience last week and they had a guest host, Sherry Sheperd from "The View"
I wish him much luck Bichon!
Thank you all. I will be in the audience next to my daughter Becky
That is awesome bichon!
will be be sworn to secrecy about how much he wins until it airs?
Definitely. My problem is my daughter, Blabby
heheee I would have trouble keeping quiet about it
Bichon, I think you need to come on and give us a thimbs up or down....
err, thumbs...
I will say he was happy with the results or very happy with the results
Is Blabby aware of what Daddy is going to do? If not, keep the little songbird in the don't know.
:D
How do you qualify for the show bichon?
Blabby is a grown woman with a child and a facebook account
oh geez cut off her internet LOL
Oh. LOL! Well then, whatever secrets you may have will be doomed.
blabby....does she know her nickname? that will for sure shut her up for a while...!
You go to NYC Sea and take the test. 30 question about a wide variety of subjects. Not that many people pass. Then they interview all the passers. Then they tape the people they like and put you in the contestant pool. If yo're lucky, they will call you.
that IS a very long time to keep that sort of secret
Put all the MENSA friends on the "phone a friend" list.
Was just curious, best of luck to you hubby
Blabby doesn't know her nickname, but I doubt she could keep that information from her family and friends. We're not telling anyone who isn't in the audience. We did that when he was on Jeopardy many years ago
they dont use phone a friend anymore do they?
No more call friend lifeline
You can ask the audience and you get to "jump" two questions
Whaaaa?? Guess that shows how long it's been since I've watched that show.
He was on Jeopardy? wow!!! That is my favorite show!
I suppose now you are just allowed to Google it.
He was on in the mid-90's. He won one game [small amount of money] and A trip to Hawaii for two!!!
No Googling.
Oh half way!
Well, the trip was worth it then
goo luck to your hubby bichon
94 left and no list yet
good luck even
there is no list Peri!
What a cool experience that will be. Good luck to hubby, Bichon!
yes,in Jacula's profile
hart
Oooh I forgot about that list.
oh, so sorry
sprite has a list too
We've been watching the show. He knows not to guess at anything, just walk
off to the PB for me
sprite's list lacks a few words tho
Volleydeemom has one
hers is shortened too bichon
jacula has the best one
I have Jac's in my profile so no search needed
hmmm - have to change my icon
Hi all. Is there a perfect list of the T's anywhere? Missing two, a 5 and a 7.
Okay. I quit. Time to go do some more errands. See you crazy kids tomorrow! *POOF*
I used sprite's list, and Jacula's doesn't seem to be right.
check my profile
Thanks, hootowl, I'll try that.
sucky time for no lickety - 403!
it is an awesome grid, if I could just stay awake!
k
well you've got plenty of time and it's fairly easy. Mostly hard to keep track of what goes where. Take a nap and come back
bryan, Sprites list is lacking 3 or 4 t words
t's in jacula's seem to be right
hi hoot owl!
Awesome, thanks. Done!
my eyes are crossing, gotta take a break
hi red
this is NOT a grid to do all at once!
WTG, Bryan!

Yeah, Nanetta, sprite's got me to 400. One I guessed. Whew...

LOL, Bethn, i also have tried.
only way to go! get a lot of words just trying
bad internet connection ruby?
terrible connection tonight
216 words and they're all starting to look the same!
28 left, almost giving up now.
i have 50 left, i at this point i am typing the same words over and over
how did you get your name in the grid b***n
if th5 are wh5s, are th4 not wh**y?
oh yes so it is. :-)
i have pull with dr G :)
lol
Shame you did not have the pull with lickety, for a list..lol
it is amazing how dependent we are. he has been here since before i started playing. In the "good old days" there was no list. i don't think i could have devoted the time necessary to finish daily
the story I got was that because of the extra words he has to redo his program. Might actually have one later I would think.
There is a list in my profile
I almost never finish bethn, unless somebody carries me along for the last few. I've only finished once without help and it was a smallish (100+) grid
yes, he has to find the extra words and th4 jiggle something i guess
Thanks, Hootowl, going to it now.
i used to finish daily, but i am trying to be not so obsessed.
yw
thanks hoot!
yw
I give up with 224. Good night everybody
Take care, Ruby :-)

Let me tell you how Twilight Zone it is to take your youngest to the polls with you. He's very proud to have cast his votes.
i'll probably be online til 4am tonight
good luck - see you guys later
bye, kje.. see you next time (-:
Cos, following election results, agonizing over the grid, or both?
both
agonizing over both actually :P
almost through the r's, bbl, hopefully to finish
technology is grand. I ordered something from the UK that shipped yesterday. USPS just told me it was accepted in Hong Kong today. Hopefully i'll have it by early next week.
that is pretty amazing seain!
hi everybody - getting ready to celebrate - no more electioneering phone calls after tonight. I was just called by the Mayor of Newark, our local congressman, and the former governor of New Jersey.
cory booker?
he's going places.
yes - I didn't listen to the message, cos, I don't even live in Newark, I have no idea who he was calling for
lol
i got no electioneering calls happily. They've bombarded my email instead. Including Mr Wolf of the VA 10th. Mind you i live in the VA 8th.
he's a popular figure in the dem party in NJ im sure thatrs why he called
we got calls from president clinton, obama, both senators today and yesterday
reading back, saw your post, seain - that is very cool. I also am amazed by what technology can do every single day. I received a book shipped from Italy in 3 days!
yeah, wat cos said about Newark mayor
where are you cos?
colorado
nice! I was surprised that something from UK was routed through HK, but whatever
10 minutes til first poll closings
JBV.... you track down any more info since last I heard?
One hour ten before closing here in VA. Two hour 10 before closing in MD and DC.
My very first online purchase was a piece of sheet music I had been searching for, for about 30 years. Found it online and got it within a week!
oh, yes, m9 - I ordered my father's birth certificate microfilm at the FHC (saved me a trip to NYC). I didn't know how to find an index for it, but the FHC lady is SO GREAT!
:) neat, JBV
oh sweet!!!!
I also found out my grandfather had a brother already in NYC (1890s) so I'm following up ... This is so much fun
Good evening to my fellow babblers! How is everyone?
By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! YAY!
I have never been busier than I am right now and it's all for my own personal projects - so amazing and satisfying
ah! did you get that off immigration? (they usually had to declare who they were going to)
hi Min!
yes, it was on the passenger manifest, but my FHC guru also just happened to notice (!) by browsing around that this brother had the same parents - the woman has an amazing memory. It's as if it's her own family.
I need to get on my political soap box&say something important here.
LOL... that's how Darlene in our FHC is!
I guess after doing this work for many years, it becomes second nature. I'm in awe right now.
ok Min......
I have something important to say Today is Election Day Please vote today if you care Please vote today if you dare Please let your voices be heard If you don't, then that's absurd Just cuz it's not a Presidential election Doesn't mean you shouldn't make your selection Go out and excersise your 15th amendement right Go vote in the morning, noon or at night
what?? and no clues in there???LOL
very nice Min
absolutely. We just got back from our Election Day lunch and voting
Okay,I'm done. Thanks for tolererating my little spiel.
I voted.
On that note, I will be back later to do story of clues.
yeah.. a looooong story!LOL

I am missing one six letter s word and I am stumped.
Evening, all... everyone in the US get out and vote today I hope?
there is an sh 6/21 meaning jewish village.
Ok I have had a nap...
with 148 left I can start back, and hope to conquer the grid!!!!
I have that one, I am trying to figure out which second letter I need.
and there is a sh7 which is the sh6 misspelled
ok let me know, and i will try & help.
thanks, doren - didn't have that 7!
thanks doren
65 to go....
se6/21 the portuguese Mr.
se 6/18...Howard *****, radio djay + first vowel
yw j. i find yiddish misspellings oddly disconcerting, but I suppose they are just alternative spellings and we should rejoice that it is one less word to find
Crap that was st 6.18
se 6/18....one who offers people a chair
se6/18 calm, peaceful
calm and se 6/18
and more so for the 7...
just h's s's and t's now.
there are a lot of h's and t's too
Howard, radio DJ?
sh 7/32 roof over your head....the sh6 is a different spelling .
yes. I don't listen to him..
I think there are different ways to represent the yiddish pronunciation in English (just a guess) -
last sh 6/21 ??
Does anybody have a clue for the very last st6/18? That seems to be the one I am missing.
i guess, since it originally was an oral language
Yiddish is written in Hebrew characters which don't correspond exactly to English letters
(i think?)
yes but i had always seen it spelled in the 6 letter version, bichon-- you too?
st & what sewing cotton is wound onto - or a dance
oh my! 403 words!
same thing happens with Sicilian, doren - there is not one "standard" writing system
yes, I do, but you never know with these transliterations
indeed monkey, crazy, eh?
i don't think i even want to start
last sh6.21 same as the yiddish 7 before , drop last vowel
you could just go for nbt
speaking of sicilian, jbv, have you read the bestiary by nicholas christopher?
OMG thanks. I have been trying workds for the last half hour and that was my last one!
Bye all, gotta run
it's been fun Monkey, though I do have a whole grid left, 139!
i appreciate that suggestion, m9
i might do that
congratulations gail!
Bye, Lynxxx
need the last 2 sh words...... clues please??
WTG, Gail!
Lil, I don't think I could complete a 403 word grid if I had the whole day with nothing to do. As it is, with 9 hours of work and a couple of hundred other things to take care of, I'm luck to get halfway with a grid this massive.
wtg gail!
me too MollyL... i guess i will go for NBT, as m9 suggested
LOL Molly, all I had to do today was run, vote, and sit my butt onthe couch, unfortunately, I fell asleep....and have that 139 left.
why can i never remember what NBT means?
no blank tiles
ae 6 cluepls? hi all!
I've been working on this on and off all day and still have 184 left. Even with a list, I think I still have a lot left
thank you! it's the t that i forget. always
ae 6, knock out gas

sleeping gas in great britian
ae 6 - BE spelling of anaesthetic
doh! ty!

ae5/10 after the stag horn?
owl, i drove through philly saturday nite... so nostalgic, but boy has it changed
oh. where abouts?
i just sucked down a bowl of my special spaghetti
just through on 95, coming home from DC
sorrym that should be an5/10
i would like to suck down your special spaghetti, no idea what it is but i'm getting hungry
m spaghetti....what makes it special?
no sodium in my sauce
an + ***ble is to multiply by th***
Monkey you are so good about cutting out caffeine and sodium...
an 5/10 small bug + a common prefi in Babble
*prefix
i have to red, i have no other choice
lots of herbs and lots of garlic definitely decrease the need for salt
well, monkey, you do have another choice, I meet those people frequently.... :)
is that some sort of pick-up line?? "hey baby.. I'd really like to suck down your spaghetti"....?
ty for the clue. i will eat soon and go to bed, don't want to watch tv
what , red??
ok.. 56 to go.. but I must *poof* for a bit.
bye m

Ifinished the Es...still struggling eith the esses...
I am just struggling...
i only need 20 more s words
go TO go. I just need 135 words, or many varieties!
hi red.
perhaps dr. g thought we would need something to do tonight since tv will be all about the elections
the results are not looking good for Florida.
just wish he had picked a time when lickety was up.. i don't mind big grids, i don't mind lickety's day off now and then, but 400 words + no lickety means my entire evening is on babble. and i do have other things need doing
And the Orlando Magic game was cancelled due to some Aesbestos in the Knicks arena.
er...have you considered not playing?
i am so afraid to hear the election results -- New York governor, Connecticut Senator, Florida, Nevada, the list goes on and on
me? not play? i really should have, but too late now, down to the final 98 (which could take two hours)
no. not that long. one letter at a time
must go paint part of ceiling, then look at election results.
I am a bit surprised about the Florida results, I am so so not happy with the Governor race...I am not that anti Republican but Rick Scott had a bad rep in the medical field due to his fraud cases, but yet they are electing him.
what? a fraudulent politician? unheard of!!
bye mix
Hi all...think someone said earlier the grid was 403 words...I'm stuck at 400. can you confirm 403??
yes
i am listening to a british cooking show. i find it a bit annoying, actually. she hsould speakk english! ;)
403 it is pcal.
not that I have 402.
thx all...i think! :)
of course, i should WRITE english
how odd to have over 300 words and only grey in ONE square
ae 6 anyone?
i think the r words will be the bear
I have 271...and 2 grey that are not the 0's
lover of beauty
british spelling of anesthesia I think.

oops.. sorry.. thank you red

I'm afraid to say hello and one of the kids kick me off the computer - may be quick - but hello babble friends
hi river
hi river, and no problem Ru, as long as you got the word.
quite a grid (two days in a row)
here
ooops - sorry

OOOKay

bl7/36 sheep
shock jock sounds painful
have 10 B's left - its OK
ok. only need six more
oh, maybe he is SHLOCK jock?
bl7/40 usually spelled with a and meaning taling meaninglessly
had that one owl. i need the weird ones, i think
kids taking over - figures - night folks - be back later for the last 157 - haha
ty, the bl7/40 is the kind i need!
ok,. down to four b's
bl + gas
one that sounds like the opp of sharp, bl5/14 different vowel
Marco RUbio to be our new Senator. Well. unpleasant news for me.
sheepsound minus a and plural
ch**** they called it ALREADY? this is why i refuse to watch
am down to one now... how many bl 5/14's are there?
is he a Republican, red?
5
Well, it is a Florida race, the polls here closed over an hour ago.
i refuse to watch cause i don't want to see the results, i'm afraid. tea party folks scare me
taht is early, ours closed ust now.
opposite of sharp... dull? flat?
I saw TEA on the ballot for the first time, and they do rather scare me too.
you got it
you know florida... early bird specials, etc
Our polls open some of them as early as 6 am!!1
synonym for what some murderers use
b's are done
whew
or for a type of cigar
a bludgeon?
i think i'm missing that one b word
okay. that did it, thanks
lol doren!!!! red do you go to dinner at 4 PM ???
he is a republican, so it isn't a surprise.
(working inner cities. that cigar word has much meaning)
I do sometimes! Usually eat at 5...
it's the florida in you! ;)
so i have finally greyed out a second tile
I'm an old old woman at heart.
congratulations Dorens.
thanks to the help. just 82 more words now!! think i should open a bottle of wine for this
well if i said joint it would not fit with other clues
i am watching nova about man trapped in elevator.
we can do it, doren - I've got 87 to go, but I'm using the list now
NCIS here, since they cancelled the Magic game...
but it would work with Bill Mahrer
i find using a list other than lickety's takes forever!! all this cross-checking back and forth
using excel?
yes ru, bill mahr would have definitely gotten (or given) that clue
no . am on my mac and haven't gotten the hang of spreadsheets, but i really should
or Tim lincecum
hello everyone
hi mom! {{{{mom}}}}
hi mom. ok owl, so i have a spreadsheet... how do you know where to enter the words you have and can you do them any way other than one at a time manually?
((TO)), my husband is an elevator mechanic
well you copy a list and paste in with "paste special".
th5 en'
too frustrating right now
((Doren)) hello
then you paste int he words similarly and adjust
Hi Ruru
mom is he wathing?
i think that sounds confusing. it takes forever, doesn't it?
watching?
he is recording it to watch later
not really
hi ya mom
beats tryig to eyeball it
indeed. and i have now fnished the a's... lists really do help
Mom...ala June Clever, I made pudding from scratch tonight. : )

you thought it difficult?
oooh love butterscotch pudding
i had a recipe to make one's own pudding mix
Gack, or Cleaver. It was great. No instant chocolate so I had to haul out the cornstarch and cocoa.
hello
Nothing difficult about pudding from scratch. There is something zen about all that stirring.

i am trying to do this while waiting for phones to ring at voter protection
ah yes, his name's been in before
and mea culpa for stretching the chog
thank you brid
any issues yet jmc?
I had a pleasant voting experience, except for the outcome...
*calling from the pb* a few fun ones
how did you stretch the chog j?
Rand Paul won the Senate race here in KY
call in a yoga master?
two gay guys called because when they went to the polls that they always went to that only Republicans could vote there
i stretched it when I typed in my long scream
oh well, that is understandable
and forgivable
hello listless babblers!
((Welki)) hello
a woman got a democratic fund raising letter two months late on election day
hi welki
hi welki
there is an issue of alledged voter manipulation in bucks country cong race
that's a little scary sounding jmc
hi welki clue for he 6/24 please?
hey welk!
lol a woman who had a fear of elevators said her therapist advised she have sex in one to cure her!

thats the problem with these jumbo grids,you end up being driven into apathy about 250 words in...yawn...

what a handsome young lad Crossy
cheeks sore from all that pinching, crossy? :)
huggable even then
that photo has been in a old shoe box since 1966,just found it
Wow, I had such an easy time voting. I think I would have thrown a public fit if I had been told in my public library that I had to vote a certian way. they just looked at my liscence and had me sign then gave me the ballot....
i never had a problem either but every time i do this election protection stuff something happens
couldn't the pole clerk have done something about that? obviously against the law to turn anyone away
it was the poll clerk that did it flosey
wow, I'd have called someone
they did, they called us
you would have called election protection folsey!
need the word before the mafia hitman please
whatever, not familiar with your laws
i still need the mafia hit man
no no flosey you were exactly right
goon?
seems they make voting a pain in the ass down there,i with our municipal elections last week i just stolled into the polling stn,shoed my id,got matched with the list,voted and walked out in 5 minutes
what does that begin with doren?
what does the mafia hit man begin with Doren?
snap TO

hi jbv and ty
PINI!! Love the request for clues for your remaining 198. Way to chisel the grid right on down.
Did Lickety's clue machine break with this one?
Oh Goody!The chog is back to normal!Now I can post my story of clues. I think that it's needed w/big grid and no list. By the way, I DO have a list in my profile.
go for it min
thx min ;)
Thank goodness it finally cleared .. I thought there was something wrong with my 'puter.
He 4/5 is a story of clues for those who need it. Was disappointed to see such a big grid when I en 5/10ed Babbleland today. I was very bu 4/6 today and didn't have much time to Babble.I knew I wouldn't finish the grid. I ha 4/5 it when I don't finish.My monkeys were not my he4/5. When I tried to ho4/5 in on them they saw the grid size they re 5/14ed & ro 4/4ed "No way are we helping you!" I tried to entice them w/be 4/6 but that did not work. Monkeys just st5/10ed at me. They always have to te 4/4 my patience.I gave them a st5/10 look and I beat them with a be 4/6 but that only got me a few more words out of them. They only found the easy on4/4. The ne 5/16 of them to not be th 6/21ed by my wrath!They're used to me ha 4/6ing them with my be5/14.I wanted to te 4/4 their heads off. Th 4/5 I kicked them in the re 4/4 & se4/4 them on their merry way knowing I was not going to finish anyway. They ran off to ro 4/5 in the fields with the ha 4/5s.I'd ra 4/4 their behavior a negative th 5/12. I did the be4/6 I could to find a few more words but I got no way ne 4/4 finishing. Now my story is ov 4/7. Hubby is ho 5/18 over me because he wa 5/18 to use the computer. If I don't give him computer soon he'll become a ra6/18 and ra4/4 on about me hogging the computer. He ra 5/10 all the time about it. Now I am going to get out of this se 4/4 and be an ea 5/10 and have some dinner. Then I'm going go watch tv and he 4/5 what the political analysts have to say about the election for the re 4/4 of the nite. Goodbye Babblers!
*Passing candy and a beer to TO*
can you put a shot in it?
Dear goodness...War and Peace in the chog! Well done Min!

*Passing a shot to TO as well. A double, this grid merits that* BRAVO MIN!!!!!

Oh I turned it off, Marco Rubio is bad but Baniel Webster is worse, so Florida...well, we are firmly red again.
is that author or title?
Sorry about that bu word.It should be busy. Thought it was in the grid, but obviously not since there is no U tile. DUH!
Texas will stay the same. I'm sure we'll have the same governor again.
back
title.. it won a pulitzer and was one of the best books i've read in years.. highly recommend... author elizabeth strout
Well, I have a funny feeling my life will go on the same as it has...
Goodnight to my felllow babblers!I'll see you tomorrow
bye min
Dorens I am making a list too of these titles...
seriously. which is why we keep the same governor. things aren't bad enough here for a change...apathy reigns!
*reaches out to shake champs hand*

This just in..."The President's not watching the returns". Ya think?
I am going to be in Austin the 1 or 8 of October next year
I just finished Geoff Ryman, the Kings last song, I really enjoyed it. Learned a lot about Cambodia.
right now i'm working hard to try to get this darn grid done.. ask me another time about books.
well he was too busy calling folks - didn't he call you?
Really? Austin is a great city! You'll have a great time.
and you can meet wildcat too, jmc!
Oh, did I miss the Pres' call? DANG!
clinton and biden called me
champ i have been to austin about a million times -- grew up in houston and everyone but me went to UT
I belong to an online bookclub, which gives a daily 5minute read of a book, 5 times a week -time enough to decide if you want to read the whole thing (about25 pages) I chose to receive Mystery, non-fiction and a couple of others .. go to http://www.emailbookclub.com
Well then you know you're in for a good time, and some good food, and perhaps a beverage, when needed!
Interesting idea Christine!
THANKS FOR THAT, Christine! Sounds awesome...

Hi all -- 254/149 here, and what a time for Lickety to take a holiday! I'm here half-heartedly, watching the US election results rather whole-heartedly.

well done, jilli ;)
Do you know the author?

let me look
oh, heck no, jilli...still have another 192 to go
Just finished Matt Benyon Rees' 4book series, mysteries with a middle=aged schoolteacher as the detective - set in Israel for the most part.

I'd better open up a list and start loading to see just how bad my list is :/
Ok I have now done my scrabble turns, man kje andnkrii are creaming me in scrabble.

yes, the "Hometown Democracy" one
Hard to say....I actually voted for it, but...there was a veyr very effective campaign against it.
yes.. lots of "big money" against it.. I voted for it too
People did not understand it and then they used the statement that actual costs could not predicted to slay it...
not a chance
unfortunately
last sh 7 please
never anything wrong with having a say in property usage.
sigh, well, how about Amendment 8? (class size)
Florida, well, I was disappointed in my polls turnout.
I think I am going to die before I finish these s's

6158, TO.
6158, TO.
I NEVER post the stats until I've finished the grid.
te5 after the great electrical resistance?
dcs - slender, smooth and slightly cylindrical.
jacs i show 402 words with 6158npoints
TO - you have one word to find.
yes but should show the points i have not total?
And I should have typed 6168 points. Sorry! You need the 10-letter word, I think.
great. should i list all te5/10 i have?
ha10/91 is an antelope of the genus Alcelaphus.
Oh, TO, a te5.10 was almost my nemesis on this grid. There are 6 in a row.
te5/10 nipples; te5/10 homonym of colors
te5/10 plural of greek "far"
te5/10 male voice
te5/10 sea bird; te 5/10 exam + a
ok is there a te 5.10 after the th letters of the hebrew alphabet?
te + first name of man who is Edna Everage. (Aussie comedian.)
thank you and thank god
it was literally a fish!
y/w!
wtg TO
congrats, TO!
Another satisfied customer!
I was watching Babbler JC on TV the night before last in 'Monte Carlo or Bust'. His butter pat wasn't good to look at, but I'm sure it tasted nice, and it really wasn't very nice of he and Zoe's host to tell them it would take an hour to turn it into butter.
butter pat?
doesn't it take awhile to churn butter?
..or not?
Jac...do you know if it's on hulu or youtube?
Churning butter takes as long as it takes. About 10 mins in modern times.
ahhhh ...
The TV programme? Not sure. Will check.
20 min on a step churn starting with 5 gallons of liquid
Or ages and ages using a hand turned churn from Victorian times.
I suppose you can tell I've never made butter before ;)
http://www.tvrage.com/shows/id-26792
That's the ip for the TV series.
thx jac ;)
Pini - if you whip cream up too much past the peaking stage, you'll get butter.
maybe someday I'll take a stab at it ;)
Homemade cream and butter taste like nothing you've ever bought in a shop. No salt, no preservatives. Heavenly.
I meant Jodie, not Zoe, re JC's Monte Carlo partner. I've no idea why I get those names mixed up.
opened the link, but can't figure out how to watch the episode
It was a pity that Penny, using her body and legs as a last resort to win the round, didn't realise that the judge was gay. The Eiffel Tower they were given is the one my son brought back from Paris for me many years ago. I use it as a ring holder.
:)
Pini - you could try clicking on the links, but it was on ITV. You might need the silver player to view it.
thx anyway, jac...I'll keep an eye out for it ;)
Pini - I've checked ITV.com and it doesn't show it. Sorry.
's ok...I'm sure JC can hook me up if I get too impatient! :)
I'm sure he can.
;)
and he'd be happy to, in my experience
no doubt ;)
Ts terminated
back, with an eye and an ear on TV for the election results
any great clues out there? still need one 9, and 4 8s.
I need the same number, but really don't care all that much
Sheesh, John Boehner is getting all teary!
evening, jilli
He has 11 brothers and sisters!
I'm not sure JC is a fan of mine since the time I questioned the veracity of a group of famous gays suddenly arriving he4 in Babble. However, only the Boy George figure has really ever been rude to me. So, we'll see. I do think JC is genuine, even if I don't always agree with his opinions.
Hi dc :)
we had paper ballots this year instead of electronic machines :D
JC is indeed genuine.
yes, he is
agreed ;)
However, JC still didn't answer me when I was going to his show, and ditto to another Babbler. But maybe that's just a showbiz, people in the office thing. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt, and no doubt he'll come in here and tell me to eff orf.
I think JC is the real thing, but I'm not sure the others are.
George is, though he tries to stay on the down low.
I only know of 2 and believe both of them to be who they are...not sure who the others may be...not that it really makes a difference...I suppose anyone could be anyone online ;)
hm. missing a st5.10 in the long run.
fonud it :)
Boy George? The one who effed and blinded at me and told me where to get off when I greeted him by saying, 'Hello Mr. O'Dowd'?
dc I'm missing an st 5/10 also..monkeyed myself into a tizzy
George is and has been fun here. I don't know of other "famous gays" who have been here.
yes. he wants very much to keep low profile re that on here if possible
That's the guy who was in prison for having sex with minors in Bangkok?
only 3 left...
st5 beam
st5 is cattle
Boy George.
st5 is like italian star
st5 an artery
indeed, jac
a st5 st5 from stidmama when misbehaing
No, George didn't do that. A guy he hired as a model made claims which were untrue.
'yes. he wants very much to keep low profile re that on here if possible' I'll bet he does!
change last letter of the st5 st5 for last st5 in that group
And this is no place for such a discussion.
indeed, jilli. enough said.
Going back to the TV for now.
Okay dcs and jilli. I'llleave it there.
clues please for the sh 7/32 and sh 6/21 ?? i am so frustrated
a sh7 would sh5 sheep
However, I do hope you understand where I'm coming from re the situation with my stepdaughter who has now had to come to live with me.
very muchso, jac
these are the last 2 sh words
I understand you're not happy with that, jac.
Thanks dcs and jilli. I'm glad you've heard me.
Isn't Edna Everage's name Barry ??
That's what I thought, Christine -- that clue was baffling!
Yep - but the clue worked, did it not?
No!
Good, I'm not aloner.
Not for me
I forgot his name and thought of the fake Aussie Prime Minister he played.
where can I find a clues list?
te + barry ??
marion barry. sigh
hi, christine

Jillibus, we'll be thick together.
part of a boat, dc
(I think the 'back')
Hehe, Christine ;)
hm. i'm confused then. rechecking my listing...
did i miss a clue for the last 2 sh words-- after the sh 6/30 ???
oh, the 5.10 after the penultimate st7.28
I'll be glad when this perishin' grid changes.
that must be the one I'm missing...I don't have one between the boat part and hay
onyx, the 10 is ha10/91
http://tinyurl.com/2auwuuq
sh7 is my FAVOURITE piece of bakery equipment. Love sh7s i do.

a sh7 rolls dough into sh5s
no J's in the grid, onyx...but nice try! I think about everything else is!
sh7 - dcs wants a sweaty Aussie who loves sheep in his home. *Deliberate red herring. LOL)
oh!
hm. that might not be so bad jac
ty dc!
Or maybe he wants a bed-maker? 2nd sh7/32.
one of my friends from HS lives in Australia. He and his hubby recently adopted a pair of twin girls.
missing se 8/40...
aww, sweet, dc!
i jhave one dc--- his name is walter
LOL sammys
Maybe he just wants what The Rolling Stones once wanted?http://tinyurl.com/2u9omra
I saw a twin scan earlier today. There they were in the womb, heads touching. It was lovely.
yep, VA 11th district will go to auto-recount
nice, jac
so close but so far
dc...did you find the st5 between the boat and hay?
i've 100 to go, doubt i'll finish
there are four-year-old twins near here with heads adjoined, impossible to separate. They seem to be doing well, running around and everything!
no, pini
But what was going through those heads? Will it be a match made in heaven or a partnership from Hell?
122 left here, dc, no interest in finishing at this point.
others seem to have managed
anyone have a clue for the se8/40????
Apparently they share feelings.
don't have it, MP
last st6?
found the st6
the heavenly lady, dc?
heavenly lady?
that's vague
Might as well post the next icon theme -- pumpkins. Back in a bit.
nm...didn't scroll down far enough
that's an ST 7 I believe pini
The twins I saw are separate, and, from what I can se on the scan, might not be identical. They share a womb but not an egg.
*waves adieu to jill* hello all
R house D Senate seems to be result of nat'l elections
I want the heavenly lady to be Stella but there's no double L
hi stid
evening, stid
I am not really here, just poking my nose in. Passed halfway in 10 minutes today, my eyes are tired though, to turning in.
there's a complimentary st7 to the heavenly lady (with a different first vowel)
HI STID! I'll postpone the pumpkin icon!
That's like my twin and me. I'm 52 now, and, one day, I might get over losing my other half.
heavenly lady meaningless to me
***hugs all*** see you-all in a few more days... (was at the school for 12 hours today.... more tired than usual!)
my son has twins...16 mths boy and girl and they are amazing...they definitely still have a connection and my brother has twin girls in their 20's and they also still share feelings
rest well, stid :)
Hope it's all going well, stid -- missed you!
st7 = twinkle twinkle + *** it be *** it be speaking words of wisdom...
seain, debbie reynolds was this when first signed to MGM (or whatever the company was) -- a future "lead" .... *poof*
ah -- ty stid!
and pini
another st7 = everything the same but change first vowel
stid -- sending you a funny email...
I can be no further use her clueing, and, obviously the twin thing makes people uncomfortable, so I'll be off now. See you all next grid, maybe.
