12:56 am

taking a speach after a qu5

12:56 am

I keep seeing French words which don't count but should (eg foie as in pate de foie gras)

12:56 am

or what you hit pool balls with a qu5 stick

12:57 am

or standing in a lineup

12:57 am

ty ruru -- that's a French tail

12:57 am

*that brings back fond memories flosey*

Brit word not used much around here

I think she's talking about the bed covering.

12:58 am

12:58 am

I had the bed covering -- now have the lineup(s) -- ty flosey too

Oops. Misread. You already have that one, jili.

12:58 am

Standing in a lineup.. silly

12:58 am

1:06 am

1:06 am

5 left ow, flosey

1:06 am

oh dear dfm, not another 911 call I hope

a bit loudly for 2 in the morning, though.

1:11 am

congrats jilli! :o)

1:11 am

I remember slipping on top step (celler steps) flat out on my back, hit head on every step!

1:11 am

WTG JILLIBUS

1:13 am

flosey, bro-in-law did that on Xmas day, going up one step, falling backwards. Had to go to Nanaimo hospital in an ambulance -- still laid up.

1:13 am

oh, wow, I wasn't hurt really, just shook up - skipped choir practice that night

1:14 am

He has ankylosing spondilitis (bad back problem) and this is not funny

1:14 am

that would be a nasty fall

1:14 am

hmmm, have never heard of that ailment

1:14 am

besides, badly bruised hip. More Xrays tomorrow in Victoria.

1:15 am

they live in Victoria?

1:15 am

vertebrae get fused, flosey -- very painful.

1:15 am

sounds nasty

1:16 am

yes, in Oak Bay now -- were visiting their daughter in Nanaimo. He had just finished carbving the turkey but nobody got to eat any.

1:16 am

Not a merry Christmas :-(

1:17 am

ouch :o(

1:17 am

no, that's for sure

1:18 am

Years ago his rheumatologist said to make sure he never had a fall...I hope there's no serious damage. But he is able to walk with a walker -- painfully.

1:18 am

Jill, btw, do you know where the home care office is here?

1:19 am

Sorry, no, but Boodie will know.

1:19 am

oh dear, that does sound bad

1:19 am

I can phone but usually no one there to answer, have to take friend up there tomorrow morning

1:20 am

*gentle hugs and thoughts for jill's bro-in-law* hey all

1:20 am

hi there stid

1:20 am

Hi stid,, and thanks!

1:20 am

hi stid! :o)

1:20 am

flosey -- Boodie is an early riser so you could call her in the am

1:21 am

we were hoping to get "HOME" care for this gal, she needs injections 3 x week but it would take a nurse an hour to come down here to give it, so we have to arrange drivers for her

1:21 am

and thed trip alone is very tiring for her

1:21 am

oh man, that's a really long drive -- so hard on folks in isolated areas when they need care like that.

1:22 am

or call the hospital? Community Services?

1:22 am

appt is for 11:30, have plenty of time to find out

1:23 am

Is this the young lady who can't speak?

1:23 am

stid she just lives up the road from us and has to go to Ganges but she finds any such outings exhausting

1:23 am

yes, jilli, has lyme disease but also had a stroke which affected her vocal cords

1:24 am

she's in mid 30s

1:24 am

*finally reads back in chog, wraps dfm in bubble wrap and puts 911 on speed-dial*

1:24 am

How frustrating for her -- she's such an attractive looking person

1:25 am

she is very sweet

1:25 am

good idea, stid!

1:25 am

that's so rough, flosey. being that age and laid up... (did that but not to that extent)

1:25 am

has had the lyme since she was around 15

1:25 am

stid -- she has to write notes to people instead of talking.

1:26 am

(sorry to interrupt...hello all 1 left, sleepy, need a clue?) co 5/14,

1:26 am

but I landed on my feet this time, stid!

1:26 am

there is a fellow in Olympia does that -- a really great guy works in one of the stores. He can hear just fine... we had an interesting conversation once about what he can hear and why I don't eat eggplant. :-D

1:27 am

that's the co + dry wine

1:27 am

a trig ratio, pdx

1:27 am

co + 60 of them in one min.

1:27 am

great clues! thanks! (down to 19, still working on the last blank ti4)

4:38 am

The small grids are always deceptive lol

4:39 am

small grids are killer. Hello everyone.

4:39 am

Hello red

4:45 am

Go and make a coffee then come back to it .... it always works for me lol

4:45 am

gotta love them non words lmao

4:45 am

ok ty norma - coffee anyone???

4:46 am

Good morning Babblers. 43 words! We need a 2nd grid today.

hi scrabbs... wide awake, i saw on FB.

4:46 am

i agree scrabbler - good morning and by the way can we please have at least 300 words tomorrow

4:46 am

bbl coffee time xx

4:47 am

Grrr, Red, my alarm was set for 6, so I will have to struggle to not be Miss Cranky Pants today.

4:47 am

Fireworks ....... back tomorrow

a snack helps me. but we have been holding admits upwards of 22 in a 30 bed ED so... I am cranky.

yaay Norma!

4:50 am

Yahoo Norma!

this grid looks suspicious for containing certain pig calling noises....

4:50 am

Holding as in waiting for a bed (admission)?

yes. :( I dont care about holding but with only say 8 beds open for actual patients you can miagine the flow issues we are having.

4:53 am

And you are holding pts because there are no available beds until someone is discharged?

yes the Hospital is full.

4:55 am

So you are functioning as a floor nurse + ED nurse while the waiting room is overfilled with angry people.

yes, they have not been too angry, but it is very frustrating. the hospital is in process of building a new floor. but there are no windows in that area yet...

4:56 am

Is the ED closed to ambulance arrivals?

Unfortunately No. The next nearest hospital is too far away.

finished off the N.

4:58 am

I am trying to find the 4th.

do you have the hangman's item?

4:59 am

Yep, and something Frenchy looking, and the facial protrusion.

try then a badly made plural of a negative statement.

an anagram of your facial protuberance.

5:00 am

Oh, duh. TY. Don't tell anyone I missed that, especially Haz.

Runs to tattle on Scrabbs....but will wait as Scrabbs is once again beating her in scrabble.

5:01 am

Morning all. Is this one a nightmare>

5:01 am

Hey, I am being crushed in several other games, and I am not too far ahead of you.

5:01 am

Not yet, sma. Good day to you.

Hi smaand. it is not too bad, but it is just like a small grid. tricky. I have 14 left.

5:02 am

16 for me

5:03 am

That i is tricky.

5:03 am

Thanks. Will do 15 minutes and try and crack it.

5:03 am

So tricky that I cannot find it.

5:04 am

Found it--il5. I have experienced myself.

5:04 am

GI condition

5:05 am

Monkey found se5 and 6 for me.

thanks for that Scrabbler.

5:07 am

I tend to stop after 4 tiles.

I have a se 6, the second movie after a first, but not a se 5.

5:07 am

..in my word search.

5:10 am

is the 7 a plural?

5:10 am

I need the third C from the left C. I have ce4 (pl of letter), co4 (salmon)

5:11 am

I don't have it yet.

me neither frog, and I also seem to be missing the third c.

5:12 am

ok well thanks anyway xx

5:13 am

co5/14....last 3 letters are an abbreviation of a very short time period

well, I found all the eses, it is not an S.

thanks Ray! and good morning.

5:14 am

TY, Ray. I'll look.

5:14 am

good morning to you..

5:16 am

Go Tanja! 7 left for me.

5:17 am

Do I use the left e or the right e for le7?

5:17 am

5:17 am

ooo sorry no left e

5:17 am

TY, that's a start.

5:17 am

5:17 am

not right you could say for the clue

5:17 am

And that is now a better start, LOL.

5:18 am

Aha, TY, Tanja!

5:18 am

Another clue would be: southpaws.

5:23 am

Fireworks#! Wow!

5:25 am

Amazing - a while since I completed and never by 11.30am before sleeping grandchildren wake up!!!!!!

6:45 am

dr god is listening in on my thoughts again - was thinking last night that I need to spend less time loafing on line, and am greeted this morning by tiny grid.

6:46 am

I hope Dr. God is not listening when you think about David Bowie. : P

6:46 am

I hope he is. maybe he could send him my way! all respects to iman, of course

6:46 am

i hope he isnt listening when i think of my tall dark haired scotsman in a kilt :p

6:47 am

I didn't know they were still together.

6:47 am

ok..1 more word for nbt/nbs....

6:47 am

are you a fan of dougray scott, carlee? I think you must be....

6:47 am

would YOU leave iman? that chick is scary!

6:48 am

nope..not at all trifs...goes back to my first love

6:49 am

but surely you find dougray attractive?

6:49 am

there we go...nbt/nbs in 17

6:49 am

Morning Kap. 3 to you too.

6:49 am

no idea who he is

6:49 am

1

6:49 am

morning kap

6:50 am

google him and all will be revealed, carlee. if it helps, he was prince henry in Ever After, with drew barrymore?

6:50 am

oh..too young...but yes cute...

6:51 am

Go Trif Go!

6:51 am

too young? have we learned nothing from demi moore?

6:51 am

Go Kaplan Go!

6:51 am

hey baby cakes! nice to see you here!

6:51 am

that she's a tramp?... just not my liking...

6:52 am

Oh, I have learned from Demi Moore. Don't hook up with a brain dead male bimbo.

6:52 am

i was going with "love has no age boundaries" but okay

How about- no amount of plastic surgery will make you 25 again?

6:53 am

FIREWORKS!!! woot woot

Did Ashtonr bale yet?

6:54 am

yahoooo trif

6:54 am

whoo hooo trif

6:54 am

Yay Trif!!

6:54 am

*~*~*POMPOM TOSS*~*~*for trifs

6:54 am

I don't think Ashton has baled yet, but they are on the "most likely to break up next" list.

Tick tick Tick

6:55 am

Is she retired or something? She hasn't had a major movie role in years.

6:56 am

oooh, car.eeyore, I am a mere three points below you on the 'who's hot' list----be afraid, be very afraid!

6:56 am

nah, my money is on jessica simpson for that one.

6:56 am

rats. now I have to go be all useful and get stuff done and such.

6:58 am

brb...gotta take missie to school....5

FW. Bye.

6:59 am

I think GI Jane killed Moore's career. And if that didn't do it, her next movie with Miley Cyrus will.

7:00 am

Congrats Trif! Was getting Z on the bus.

That was short and sweet.

7:00 am

Congratulations Kaplan!

7:01 am

Whee! I got all the vowels!

7:06 am

well done car!

7:07 am

oooh! It looks like someone did win the lottery last night! someone in Idaho and someone in Washington state. I hope this helps them, whoever they are

I think a couple hundred million would be a little more than helpful lol

7:11 am

i could use it myself

7:12 am

I would be happy to split 300 million dollars with someone.

me too baby!

7:12 am

you don't actually get 300 million

7:13 am

mornin babblers!

7:13 am

you either get it as an annuity with the assumption you will live 26 years or you get 218 million in a lump

7:13 am

Okay, I would be happy with my share of half of 300 million after taxes.

7:13 am

hi evan

7:14 am

then taxes

7:14 am

at least no social security or medicare is taken out of it

7:15 am

No clue why anyone would take the annuity over the lump sum.

7:15 am

mornin, Babblers.. teeny weeny grid

7:16 am

just started, and already im halfway...heh

7:16 am

ok...back..flip its cold out there

7:16 am

hi snuffy

7:16 am

hi car

7:17 am

It always werids out my day when I finish with breakfast instead of lunch.

7:17 am

how are we today jmc

7:17 am

me too, molly. i dont bother to finish most days, but when i do finish early, i dont know what to do with myself!

7:17 am

i am fine but i don't know about you so can't answer the question

7:18 am

yeah i prefer to have at least 100 words

7:19 am

100 or more I can milk working the grid throughout the day. Over 200 I just don't have enough time for. I'm not a brainiac who can solve grids like that in 20 minutes.

7:19 am

i am not solving this one in 20 minutes

7:19 am

spotted an actual "fish" and a slithery thing too

7:19 am

did grey the Q

7:20 am

It took me a while to get the q words. I can never remember how to spell that line up word.

7:20 am

slithery doesn't quite make it tho.. not four letters

7:21 am

o i think it looks so cute i always remember it

7:21 am

nope not enough to make the list aloy

7:22 am

2

7:22 am

i keep trying to find the pig call

7:22 am

I think a grid with this many vowels should have been tossed back in the grid machine.

7:22 am

go car go

7:22 am

why do keys not work properly? my "c" key is acting up, have to press it more than once.. I swear, I did not spill coffee or other bevs on the keyboard

7:23 am

It's not a pig call JMC. It's more of an Aussie expression.

7:23 am

1

7:23 am

there may be grit or grim under it aloy

7:23 am

well pig call or aussie i can't find it and i know it is there

7:23 am

Aloy, try popping the key off and see if there is something underneath. Or blasting it with canned air.

7:23 am

ty, jmc.. i have some of that air cleaner, will give it a treatment

7:24 am

ty Molly

7:24 am

and bobs ur uncle...am done

7:24 am

now what???

7:24 am

whoo hoo car

7:24 am

Way to go Carlee!

7:25 am

congrats, carlee (borrows pom poms)... yay!

7:25 am

i don't know car i am afraid babbleland will be bereft of people because they all are *gasp* working

7:25 am

i JUSt got my coffee too....the world is off its axis..done babble BEFORE one gets their coffee?

7:26 am

that is sad car

7:26 am

ooh.. one for the books, carlee

7:26 am

Oh Lord, I don't do ANYTHING before I get my coffee.

7:26 am

there must be some other word game to play

7:26 am

i'll ust HAVE to finish taking down my tree and putting away boxes...

7:27 am

Yes there are. But none with such delightful chat.

7:27 am

didn't a group of babblers come from some other word game?

7:27 am

and make dinner before this afternoons game

7:27 am

*~*~*POMPOM TOSS*~*~* for Carlee :-)

7:27 am

i keep my netbook next to my bed so i start the grid before arising many days

7:27 am

hahaah thanks zooz

7:28 am

wd zooz!

7:28 am

too true--well we can always chat without working on the grid i suppose

7:28 am

so...we did secret santa at the meeting last night..i got toe socks :)

7:28 am

JMC, I know a lot of people here play Lexilous.

7:29 am

socks for your toes? doesn't the rest of your foot get cold?

7:29 am

How come you did your Christmas party after Christmas?

7:29 am

i used to molly but have been too overwhelmed at work to play that

7:29 am

three Kings Day?

7:30 am

b/c the night of the xmas party was or crazy a$$ storm that made cnn

7:30 am

ah so

7:30 am

When I'm at work, I have to play something I can leave and come back to. Oh yeah Carlee, I should have figured weather.

7:31 am

the city was under state of emergency....was not having parents bring their kids out from all over city for a xmas party

7:31 am

today i go to the Hill and see Ran and Ron Paul be sworn in, meet with a new volunteer, work on a grant application, and meet with my web guy

7:32 am

then lexulous is perfact for that molly if you have someone who is more or less paying attention at the same rate--i usually do a word a day

7:32 am

ohh..that should be fun jmc ( the swearing in)...hey do you go when the new judges are sworn in...federal district court justices

7:33 am

no just congress because ron paul is a big supporter (politically) of my organization. he hates selective service

7:33 am

molly dorens is pretty much on top of things with lexulous if you want to play her

7:34 am

doesnt featherbee play too..and peri?

7:34 am

my girlfriend LOVES ron Paul

7:35 am

yes i am sure that they do and they play scamble (?) too which has more of a timed element

7:35 am

i have a ron paul button...( and a clinton and an obama)

7:35 am

noggin does too

7:35 am

my mother used to gag every time i mentioned i was going to his office

7:36 am

Sounds like a cool day JMC.

7:36 am

that funny..no ..she loves alot of what he stands for...

7:36 am

well trust me these things always sound more interesting than they actually are

7:37 am

once you been to one....youve been there done that huh?

7:38 am

something like that

7:38 am

but i am hoping that Ran may support some of the same things as Ron and that would get us a toe hold in the Senate on some of the bills we would like to see move forward

7:39 am

so..i am trying to come up with interesting ideas for this spring with my teens... something out of the ordinary for outing/ activity...we have mystery night..and a chocolate themed sleepover...

7:39 am

7:40 am

7:40 am

7:41 am

7:41 am

yeap junior senator from kt

7:41 am

lol car i hate that i can't spell fer shit

7:42 am

hmmm. gone to google dude...see what he is all about...and..i have an interesting question for you....a hypothesis u might say

7:42 am

okay . . .not that i necessarily know anything

7:43 am

pretty wife..he's better looking then dad...is dad still a vegan..or just a vegetarian..

7:43 am

anyway..my hypothesis....for your cause actually...

7:44 am

and from Kentucky! Good morning

7:44 am

what would happen....hypothetically if the draft was implemented again...? long term...just curious....would that help your cause int he end?

7:44 am

morning mom

7:44 am

dang. overheated my sausage patty to near hockey puck status...

7:44 am

hi mom

7:44 am

oh dear Eva

7:44 am

Hi JMC

7:44 am

YAY Hockey....bronze AND gold games today

7:45 am

no car because there is no such thing as a fair draft

7:45 am

mornin, Mom

7:45 am

ate it anywho. it goes with my slightly overtoasted bagel...

7:45 am

anyone with a Social security number in the pool...mandatory service for 18 month like in israel for which billions of your tax dollars goes to yearly anyway

7:46 am

at the age of 18

7:46 am

in spite of the myth it was not the draft that stop fighting in vietnam--nixon thought if he ended the draft people would stop protesting and they didn't

7:46 am

not even in isreal is mandatory service universal

7:46 am

( i am not saying is right... i am just curiousllthe public outcry..would be monumental....and perhaps....would be a little less likely to sound the battle cry

7:47 am

no we had a draft before Korea and Vietnam and it actually made it easier because there were plenty of troops

7:47 am

my canadian girlfriend at age of 16 was deterred from coming back for 4 months cus her mother israeli/ cdn... and as they follow matrilineal descent...they wanted her for army

7:48 am

Oh Eva, had I known, I would have made biscuits. That is the one thing I can't seem to get right. They always turn out like hockey pucks. : D

7:48 am

i guess i am thinking the fear of the implementation...not the actual implementation

7:49 am

i can make cream puffs they usually turn out as hockey pucks

7:49 am

you can be exempt from service in israel if you are orthodox jew for example

7:49 am

i used the bag of biscuits in the freezer myself

7:49 am

<===terrible baker

7:50 am

ok... was just a thought jmc..i would think that all those big whig politicians....if they knew their sons/ daughter were forced into service... there might be less votes for war

7:50 am

okay things to do even though i am not 1/2 way in this tiny grid

7:51 am

ok, mulch, here I come.. need to do some outdoor work today as we have a 40% chance of showers tomorrow.. hagd, dear Babblers.. see you all tomorrow!

7:51 am

their sons wouldn't be forced into the military or they would serve like W did -- without even showing up

7:51 am

ok..enjoy your day jmc ( hope i didnt upset you...)

7:51 am

bye snuffy

7:52 am

no not at all car. . .I get asked this question regularly. . .it is part of my job

7:52 am

(-: bye, jmc (have to think of a nickname)

7:52 am

enjoy RAND's swearing in :p

7:52 am

7:53 am

7:54 am

*poof*

7:54 am

any help please on se5 & 6, co 6,4 & 5, li (last one) 4 & h5 ?? thnx so much if u can help me!

7:54 am

hehehe..true enough....

7:54 am

co6 is plural the 5 before it

7:55 am

the co 4 is the sound either a dove makes or you make to a baby

7:55 am

co5 is the front part of a trig term

7:56 am

got co 4, aint got the co 5 which needs pluraling?

7:56 am

se5 sounds like a common lizard ghe***

7:56 am

li4 you turn it on to see in dark

7:57 am

not sure which h5 you want...the he or ho

7:57 am

co5 is a whole bunch of vowels

7:57 am

The co 5 sounds like a pig call.

7:57 am

sounds like how you call a pig

7:57 am

thnx for li 4 - I didn't have that one! I need he 5 please.

7:58 am

snap molls

7:58 am

Some people aren't getting that clue. Does that mean we're rednecks? : P

7:58 am

sounds like the first part of a whirlybird type of air transportation

7:59 am

i always thought of the pig call as starting with an S...

7:59 am

That's why we said "sounds like" Mrs. Foster. : D

8:00 am

sorry JMC, was away for a minute. I doubt Rand Paul would know me from Eve, but sure why not

8:00 am

thnx for he 5!

8:01 am

ahh. well, good thing i knew the babblet anyway. :)

8:01 am

not got the pig sound!

8:01 am

CO5. C + double vowel + double vowel. make plural for the CO6.

8:02 am

thank you! I'm very much a child at heart and it reminds me of my childhood. I used to believe the moon was there to be my friend and guard me from the monsters under my bed.

i used to think it followed me when i walked in the woods or the city

5:06 pm

my sister made up a game about the magic land operator who could ring up anybody or anything -- i frequently talked to teh moon

5:07 pm

one night after my uncle gave me a big bag of pansies he had picked for me i started worrying that they were dieing for me so my sister said i should call them

5:09 pm

that's adorable :)

5:10 pm

so the pansies told me it was their life wish to be so pretty as to be the one that was picked--it meant they were special

5:13 pm

your sister sounds like so much fun. my sister used to make me mixed tapes when I was little but she would hide them in the house and create a scavenger hunt for me to find them!

5:13 pm

nice

7:29 pm

hi, folks

hey all. I have 7 left. so now I have to get it together. Congrats Temple Owl!!!

Hi Welki, how goes it?

7:30 pm

attended a funeral today, so i'm feeling a little blue (and very humbled)

Oh Welki, I am sorry.

7:33 pm

thanks. was a tough one, a good friend's husband (only 44)

Oh that makes it especially difficult. wow.

7:35 pm

the whole things reads like a romantic tragedy .. they wait forever, it seemed, to meet each other. 10 yrs together, inseparable .. he's got underlying medical issues that may or may not have contributed to some cancers that developed .. they married 12 days before he passed away

it's empty in here today because of the small grid.

Oh Welki, so so sad.

7:38 pm

yep, it's a teeny weeny grid today

7:38 pm

*enough sad stuff* they were gloriously happy

and that, in fact, is more than many ever achieve.

7:39 pm

an elderly lady at the hospital, no relation at all, had read about them in the paper and called them to "report" that she was watching them, tears streaming, as the two of them danced together in front of the window in his room, their last dance

7:40 pm

(that was sappy, not sad :)

7:41 pm

so, to change the subject .. holy moly, airfares have gone UP UP UP! 825 round trip for a direct flight from here to new jersey!

yes, that is sappy...not sad...

Wow Welki. I thought my airfare was high because of the holidays. Wow...and now they will charge for a suitcase too!
