I'll check
still working on S's and R's,6 left.
Wasn't dart going to be away ?
he did the grid flosey
I'm still trailing him
really, in and out too fast!
really premature calculationis
calculations that is
that was a joke..but probably funny only to me
lol, did you find him in earlier?\
no.. he and I are close in games and points.. it's become a fun thing to tease him about it
yes, have been watching the 2 of you
it's fun
so I know that if he's still 13,500 POINTS away from me he's finished
this is a hard one!
but he usually speaks
hoping the move slows him down *evil laugh*
not too bad pass.. you'll need help on two words for sure
ah, I remember, he's moving further south, isn't he?
only got 24 and see no more! hahah.
no. i think to Kansas or something or St Louis

why did you miss bridge?
headache - wanted George to have a better game than he'd have had with me like this

Things moved along quite well after George's admonishment :-)

I am so glad to get away from those fluorescent lights
All done by 10:05

I'm glad to be away from the freezing cold and the dreadful loos with only cold water

Having a tanty at the tv being stupid
very tired. about to call it a wrap
hello herin!!! {{big hug}} I haven't seen you in a long time
Big hugs Ruby.
I have been hiding
thank you
I wish I could
Just can't fathom why tv doesn't advertise a new show. Drives me nuts.
Ruby I just haven't felt like chatting
you're lucky you'vbe missed my whole drama. Husbnad is in hospital with pneumonia and wants to come home and it's freezing here!
O bugger Ruby. hugs. Tell him it is best for him to stay there. Why is it could there?
no central heating and dogs in and out., etc. etc.
Cold at your house is what I meant
miserable
Ruby hun you have heating though?
radiators (qa couple) and 2 fireplaces.
it's a pretty, but poorly designed, house
Ok
I have to go to the hospital now, I was happy to "see" you, herin!!!
Take care
*poof*
Is anyone here?
hi herin - i am only on for a sneaky visit before doing the rest of the housework
ruby if you are still about - how is hbby
Hi
weird little grid
Hi Kazzer. Just on briefly while I drink my coffee.
HI Sally
Hi herin. Not been on lately. You OK?
hi Sally - i am on leave this week to do the spring cleaning and as i had to go on line to pay some bills i thought i'd have a little go
:-) Kazzer
I have been just a bit poorly for the last couple of months and not done anything, not paid a bill! Have been spending the last three days catching up.
well - you've got when you get the chance and its quite a little one today again
whats been the problem
O Sally not good
If there is such a thing, it has been described to me as a low level flu. Not really what I would call flu, but just a bit ill. Now that I feel better I realise how ill I felt! Didn't even want to play Babble, so that shows how bad it was :-)
Anyway I'm fine now and there are plenty of people worse off. I don't often get things so perhaps don't get them as badly as some people.
Take Care Sally
d eto
How's work herin?
I picked up on rubyfoo's husband being in hospital, and have emailed her, but did I also gather that NB was back in hospital? Doesn't sound good if so.
Sally on NB no idea he snobs me off when I ask. Work doesn't start till 14th
ty. Good luck with the job.
26 to find, think I am going to have to list because I have really hit a brick wall with some of these words.
Thanks
Just found a load of sh words. Can't believe I missed them!
Thanks
back agian - i lost conection for a while
Hi again
Thought you must be busy dusting Kazzer!
no = the server wnet on the blink and i am expecting to lose internet for a bit a some point as we are upgrading the line
i have actually done a little bit of dusting treated my self to pledge fluffy duster and it is amazing
Not fair Kaz
Does anyone have all the F words? I have one missing. I have fr 4/7 and 5/16, and fu 4/9, 4/8 and 4/10.
Is that a sort of impregnated duster Kazzer?
Ok i think I am needing to turn the aircon down
Fr 5
no its just a sleeve of fluffy material on that you slide on to a plastic handle and its good for tops of things i cant reach normally
ty herin, looking
got it herin, ty
I am watching this 20 -1 show and they got the song so wrong for The Hillsborough Disaster.
what did they play
bingo........... fireworks
congrats jitesh
Good morning all. The other fr is kind of a short term for first year high school or college students.
ty Molly, but got it now. Not a word in use in the UK.
They said the song was the club song Never Walk Alone but from my memory I thought it was Ferry Across the Mersey
HI Molly'
herin liverpools so is never walk alone
I know that is the Puddles club song but to represent the disaster I thought it was Ferry
my keyboard is crap today - must shake the crumbs out
not sure can check though
I have no idea why that stuck in my head though
Ooooooooooo Interesting show is on our tv on Monday
good afternoon all
Spriteeeeeeeeeeeeeeees
hey lady :)
Hallo Sprite!
Just got fireworks at long last so will bid you all adieu.
hi Sally! Long time no see!
TV show on Monday is about a case that the b.f was intervied about
Not been on Babble or in the chog for a while Sprite.
wtg Sally and bye :)
Will be back tomorrow.
well I missed you. Glad to see you, even though it is only short.
How are you Sprite?
pretty good. My therapist this morning said I am making great progress. Gives me hope :)
good
I am working on clearing my FV requests and I get down 15 and then another 15 more are sent. Can't win.
yeah, one of the bad sides of the darn thing
does anyone have a clue for the sk please
It means a tad more room
sk + P*** Spice (one of the spice girls)
hi lil*monkey
morning all! sprite I haven't seen you in ages! So nice to see u
thanks - thats fireworks for me - i always spelt that with 2 oo
Hi Lil
and vice versa :) I have been playing on different times.
hi herin, kazz & anyone else in here!
i always spelt that sk word scoach (like coach with S on the front)
Now i must go and attacke the kitchen the living room end of the front room is passable but no i must don the mighty plastic gloves and attack the kitchen with some bleach and detemination
good luck with that, kazz
Good Luck one and all
thnks - i'll need it. I hate housework - hence the need to spring clean every now and again
Kaz bleach is bad
it might be but it works and kills any bugs off
So does Baking soda and Vinegar
byeeeee - too much scrubbing
I spell it skooch, like "skooch over and give me some room". At best, it's a slang term and dubious to be official here. Why is bleach bad?
Molly this word is different... it rhymes with coach or gauche
hi Molly
Skosh rhymes with coach???
Hey Sprite, glad you're finally feeling better.
yes, it's not the same word as "scooch over" this word rhymes with coach, it means a tiny bit more... like give me a sk5 more cream in my coffee
Never heard of it.
Help with that W please
Think of a deli meat that starts with liver.
Molly did u know you can click on the little tiny question mark (to the left of the word in the list) to find the definition & origin ???
O frog me thank you
ha! I didn't have it either, herin :)
Yep Lil. Still doesn't help when I've never heard of the word or heard it used. Must be from another culture.
herin, did u start your job yet?
No 14th Feb
OK, i'll be thinking of you that day!!!! plus that's Valentine's Day!
Thanks hun
i must leave for work in a minute, byeeeeeeeeeeee all
did i just see me name?????
bye lilmonkey, hi frogface
HI Grog
frook face
What is the other lone S? the one that has SK
am sorry, need to go take a little nap. My eyes are shutting down all by themselves. Back later for last 21.
Loves Sprite

clue for ho20 pl
ho 5/20? Plural of fishing items
hi all
*tap tap* is this microphone on?
gm jmc - just completed my 1st pass at this grid - got 64...
Hello :)could i please have a clue for wu 5 & 6?
wtg montreal!
deli meat sami -- german for sausage i think
sounds like "more bad" sami...
how do you go about your first pass montreal? i sit and let random words jump out at me and then try for nbt
or "the baddest" ?
no jmc, I go methodically from top left corner, doing 1st row and so on til bottom right - you ?
thankyou muchly
completely random! lol probably why i am slow at this game
19 words so far
yw sami
lol...although I stray from this method in really large grids: I just let the words come to me...
i do the random thing too :)
i have found that i am monkeying more I was so shocked at first at the concept of typing random letters and seeing if they worked
monkeying doesn't help when i play boggle with my family ;-(
i guess its more productive than staring at the screen
lol it is at that sami
i also find going away and coming back helps new words pop out
lol - I will monkey around as well especially with "tough" letters, looking for 4-letter words - on that no4, gog to grasp the rankings as we are the 1st of the month... BBL - nice seeing you again jmc, nice meeting you sami - happpy babblings - take care all "POOF"
bye :D
bye montreal
you're right jmc, coming back to a grid with fresh eyes = amazing results - bye for now "REAL POOF"
one word left...clue for the 2nd ho 6 21 please...

hello, back to try for a few more words.....

obviously whoever created Enable didn't have kids since it won't accept sn 4/4 + ted.
((ruby))
how is hubby doing?
none are weird, hursh
hi ruby.. how is your husband doing today?
lol i saw that luv
ruby - I may be i geeva in june
geneva
so it's just one each rh, ru, ry, and the rest ro ?
yep
geeva is good, too. Geneva is less than an hour away! What are you going to do there?
{{crossy}}
I am going to a wedding i italy june 10, ad will sped about 3 weeks i europe... i have friends in geneva i will try to visit
they are keeping him much longer than he thought; last night he said he might come home today (NO NO NO) and during the night he pulled out his IV and took off his oxygen.
how wonderful, kje
sounds like he is delirious
ooh, ruby.. he is not doing himself any good with such behavior
that is a great time of year to be travelling in Europe, before the crowds. I hope I get to meet you, KJE
I will try, ruby... if I go to geeva, we will def make plans to meet up
I stayed long enough to sort out his phone, TV (sort of), and get him back on oxygen, but there's not much else I can do. He is very stubborn!
how old, ruby?
they will tie him down if he keeps pulling his iv...
he's 85
good morning folks, hi ruby - sorry to hear your husband's in the hospital
howdy jbv
what you are describig is delirium... do you have geriatricias there? have them come see him
I think this is much worse than they say
ty, JBV
the pneumonia made him feverish, so it could be that
could be a reaction to meds.....
Hello everyone
2nd ho 6/21?
if your family dr had not said you were imagining things for 4 days,he would of got care sooner..that irks me
it is a pl of the second ho5.12
ho 6/21 plural of the ho 5/12
me, too, crossy.
!
60-70% of people i that age group get delirium whe hospitalized, but it goes undiagnosed 80-90% of the time b/c docs are ot trained in geriatrics... ask for a geriatrician
the second is a plural, the first has a vowel at the end, rolotom
that is a good idea, kje
oe
{{annie}}

bye crossy
the first word I thought of was too rude for the chog! lol
LOL
but if it can appear in the list then surely it is just fine for the chog, apart from the c*** that appears from time to time
pardon me, boo, is that the chattanooga choo choo
scrabble games allow all kinds of racial slurs
time to go have to go visit parents and daughters, never seems to be enough time some days
have fun and fireworks everyone
{{jacq|}}
Enable, as usual, only allows "some" racial slurs. The word dago comes to mind.
Hey, everyone. :)
Fireworks. That was not much.
Congrats.

goooooooooood evening fellow babblers xxx
Hey, frog. :)
Hello, Frog :-)
heya cg xxx
hey, all!
So the university is closed due to weather - I don't have to teach at 5 pm after all! Whew! And I can focus on the grid :-)
My classes were canceled today, too. But I'm a student. ><
hi all, back at last
hello sprite! And hello to all my babble friends
hey Triffles :D Lovely to see you. I SO enjoyed the mensa word thingy.
wasn't that funny?
funny and so brilliant
the snow here is SO depressing....and knowing that mr hate is off on a lovely carribbean cruise with his boy toy isnt helping my mood much
argh no, that is a yucky thought. But you have friends. That is worth something too.
Yes, you are right. I do.
which is probably more than he can say, hun
but the sun would be so lovely to see.....I despair of ever seeing it again
* Sending sunshine from California to the rest of babble
you will. I promise.
hi Dr!
Hi SPrite and Trifs
Chin up Trif. Spring is a mere six weeks away. I can't voice my opinion about asshats on a cruise, because they are not rated PG13.
I can't even build a decent fire, as all of the wood is frozen into the piles, and under feet of snow
hello dr
thanks molly. it's his THIRD vacation in three months....
@$&**#@& @&*&#@&
hi Molly
Fireworks. :3
jeez, trif, that sounds really sucky. {{{{{trif}}}}
fireworks
I think the snow is affecting my brain. I was just about to ask for help with the last ho4/5. Fortunately I found it :-)
Trif, a fun project for you and the young'uns would be building a wood pile shelter. I'll come help.
trif, what kind of puter do you have? Windows?
gratz to the finishers btw
hi all
I have a toshiba laptop running google chrome, which I don't really love
congrats on all the fireworks and down with Mr. Hate
Clue for a W?
ok but you do have Word?
only w I have is like a hotdog
the other one is the plural
I don't like Google Chrome either.
su
w
I sort of like Chrome except I haven't figured out how to get it to open Word and PDF files instead of downloading them
yes, I have word, publisher, and excel.
I need a good manual for publisher, tho....
uusue, in the download bar at bottom, click on arrow and tell it to open
online trif
Chrome doesn't save my cookies, for some reason and entering pwords over and over gets boring
ah, thanks, dc!!!
i use Chrome primarily, and firefox some
same here; I use firefox primarily at work since my work computer is ancient and chokes on Chrome
and we have a couple of applications at work that require IE, much to my annoyance
yes, that annoys me too
there is an add-on for FF that makes sites think it's IE
this grid is tough
j
hj
chrome, options, personal stuff is where you go to turn password saving on or off.

that was my last word! thanks mkm!!!!
often spelled without the h (the sh4/5, that is)
it is used in India as a title of respect for a man
yeah, that is because the real language has its very own writing style. So for us to read it it has to be transcripted - for which several methods exist.

Hi, hoot.

see y'all tomoz xxx
hi dc - you are in the middle of it aren't you?
what a lag!
WHen I was in NY you kinda accepted it I think
it's worse to the N and the W, we got off easy this time
But as long as you have power you should be ok
good!
my place lost power for 7 hours during the ice/snow last week.
big storm starts here tonight hoot
But is't it still aiming at you?
some people in Maryland were without power for 10 days.
that sucks dc! You can cope when you know what's going on
centre of it will pass 2 hour drive south though
Supposedly more Saturday and again next Tuesday. We'll see. I'm just hoping the horrible cold does not move due East again.
crossy - you are probably are most used to it!
if we do not get a foot,we do not even get excited lol
we are supposed to be in the 20's starting tonight. 60 now - weird!
but we did have thnderboomers and lichtning which is why I am just getting on. Moving away now
I trust you can translate that!:(
It just occurred to me that we have no gear heads here in Babbleland. No one clued the hu 5/14 as hu*** shifters.
all you easterners stay warm! and preferably stay off the roads.
i read typoneeze with ease
hahaha
let me fire up my weather sat and see how the storm is coming along......
I coudn't get into Weather Tap at all
We had way more than our fair share of snow last winter. Every time a storm misses us, I take it as a PASS from The Universe due to last year's craziness.
I'm not east anymore ibd - in Memphis Tn and no one knows how to drive in normal weather. Been hearing a lot of sirens and it's only been rain!
whoooowheee! it,s gonna be a big one!
When I fiest came here 6 years ago I spent New Years Eve on BF's patio w/no coat on. Now we are freezing our butts off
dcseain - thks for the clue for the sk5 ... I use that word a lot but didn't know was a 'real' word!!
i learned the word from chaw ads growing up.
neither did I! I just tried it cause there was no other choice!
To all Babblers in the plains, midwest, and on east -- hope you all stay warm and safe. Lived many years near Chicago and one doesn't forget those blizzards!!
I'm hearing what sounds like thunder again but I'm hoping it's FedEx trying to catch up on their flights
brb
wow! ijust got home from work and it is CRAZY out there. the blizzard has arrived.
hi all...it's actually 35 and windy in Houston...amazing that we're having a touch of winter!
imperial measure catches me off guard still and i have to get my mind to convert 35..above freezing...nice;)
Sorry crossy...should've remembered we're international!
np,we had it till 78,not that rusty yet
It's above freezing here today, for the first time in weeks.
-18= 0f and we are at -16 atm
GAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
help with the W?
I only have one of them...
knock-wu*** sausage
bratwu5, liverwu5
thanks!
...because I'm stupid and forgot the plural
train -- no tracks? http://tinyurl.com/4bql36y
Curious. What do you folks keep on hand in case of a power outage? Not the batteries and emergency preparedness stuff. But...jigsaw puzzles...card games...what kinds of time passers do you make use of when you lose power?
mucho snow here west of Chicago...just went out to stock up the larder (or at least to get more milk so we can have hot chocolate)
WINE!
Books, molly
back and all of theose mentioned
and reading and gas stove so cooking
I have an e-reader with a light
I imagine it's similar to hurricane preparedness...wine was MOST helpful.
That was neat, BR
(((Yeah Champ))). We have lots of books. I was thinking of things to do together.
wine and cider are one's friends, agreed
Uno...and regular playing cards...
well we are campers so camp lanterns and about 6 flashlights
molly,we keep cards,board games,risk monopoly,scrabble,and i have tons of books as well as 2 e-readers
oh yeah - have mille bourne, uno and a caouple of board games
and we have a crokinole board we have tons of fun with when the power dies
I have about 6 decks of cards
brb
and then there's always just, um, snuggling, if there's just the 2 of you :-)
i have a naptha coleman stove and lamp and candles
and lots of blankies
christmas babies!
2!
go crossy!
took an hour to find that one lol
I vote for snuggling!
i make hot spiked cider on the stove with a cin stick and make a cracker plate with veggies and dip,curl up in da blankies with the candles and lamp going and play crokinole till we 3 holes in the middle of the board lol
see*
mmm spiked cider
what is crokinole?
Uh-oh. Internet is getting squirrely...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crokinole
Cross, your stove works in a power outage?
They are showing pictures of Chicago. They don't seem to notice that Chi drivers are crawling. Here they would be going 60 and if they have an accident they'll sue the city
thats what the portable coleman stove is for molly
as i have an electric range only atm
Game sounds interesting. Obviosly not known here
Molly - if you have a gas stove, even w/auto-light, you can use a match to light it
i miss gas/wood ranges
turning the knob starts gas flow. Probably caused a few explosions for someone who doesn't know that
Oh, I see. I have a one burner Coleman propane burner. But I don't use it inside. I heat things up out on the patio.
That's ok if not too windy
So far, thank God, none of our power outages have involved wind. We have had two that lasted over 30 hours and let me tell you, that is NOT fun after a while.
Our temp is now 45 - the big chill starts!
nope nope nope
oh they just changed our lows! Now only into 30's
hey UUSUE are you still around??
I haven't had a gas stove in years. And I'm glad. No worries about "leaks".
I'm here!
hey sue just wondered how you were doing out in the far reaches?
Well, it's snowing like crazy; the university actually closed as of 3 pm so my 5:00 class won't meet (thank goodness). Went out to get milk at Walgreen's, about 1/2 mile away; roads are ok but definitely snow-covered. I tried to go to the doctor in Aurora at 1 but gave up; I-88 was not in good shape, and it was just a follow-up, nothing urgent.
They are trying to keep us off the roads, and I agree. The dog thinks it is great (black labradoodle).
i'm only 15 minutes from work but the roads were awful. the blowing snow is what is making it so crazy.
we were laughing bc it snowed a bit this morning and then stopped for a while. then at 3 exactly when they said the snow hit and the wind started whipping - right on cue!
Molly I had gas stoves all my life in NY- Came here 6 years ago and nothing but electric. Lousy heat control, hard to clean and very expensive to replace coils..
Yes, it's about the same here. We probably got about 3" before the main storm hit.
We had to buy ours when we moved here cause there was no stove or fridge. You have no idea how happy I was to get back to gas! Leaks don't happen if your careful and know where your turnoff is. In all my years in NY I only heard of it happening twice!
Here it is a regular thing
ho 6/21? last word i need
So, heaviest snow between 7 pm and 3 am, according to the latest weather. The 6" we've gotten so far doesn't amount to much, I guess.
pl of the 5
actually 2 21's one is pl other is vowel added to 5
g'nite
my teenagers are trying to make plans with their friends and getting mad that we won't drive them anywhere - errrrr.
heh. Mine is 21 now, and is holed up in his room with his X-box.
oh i see :) thanks FIREWORKS!
mine is next to me swearing at his xbox.
lol
Good Enough...my teenager (middle kid) is getting her license next week, AND I CAN'T WAIT!!!
Hi everyone!
hi!
How are you, ChampFit? I see your middle child is getting her license... congrats!
Just in time to stop me from killing her! :)
Well, that must be a relief for HER then! :-)
I have 8 more years to go before my oldest can get his license. So we'll stay in the house for 8 more years so I don't have to drive him anywhere.
they just start to want to hang with their friends and go places, and it does get old being the taxi driver. One more kid...5 more years...
Wow, think of all the free time you didn't have before!
We'll see how long that lasts!
where are you?
Delaware.
Frozen?
Outside, definitely. It's the combination of dampness and cold that's unpleasant. Fortunately, I have free gas heat in my apartment, so it's cranked up to about 85 degrees!
What's it like in TX?
34 but sunny. windy. allegedly getting down to 20-some tonight. Nothing to cry about, thankfully. Fireworks!
Congrats on fireworks!
It was a bit slow going...some strange words. Not that that's unusual!
I have 26 words left and think I'll start looking at the list.
I tried, and made it to somewhere around there. Good luck!
Didn't have to use morewords though...that's a plus!
I've still never used morewords, though I bet it would help me out a lot!
yeah, because sometimes you can't finish without some help. do you REALLY know all the words? You do learn!
Hey Champ just saw your post about your offspring getting her license soon. That is a great turning point! But I won't even let my 18 yr old out driving in this crap tonite.
Noswaith dda - evening all
Oh, I'm sure. I almost never finish the grid.
anyone have a clue for the 1st ho 6 21 please???
Hi Glantarell!
Hi Brookie
good...that's exactly what my mom said...we had the rain and whatnot this a.m., and it makes you stop and think. But her commute to school is pretty easy...no highways.
the first ho6/21 is adding the second vowel to a ho5
cwestexan...that was one of my last...add a vowel to the ho5/12
anybody clue me for the ro5/10 which is not the place where birds gather to sleep?
change the last letter to a vowel
on the other ro5/10...sorry!
roose
oops
thnks champ
anybody want to send a cup of tea to the PB for me?
thanks champ
...*pours tea*...here you go!
sk 5 20 ??
and for my last word, anybody help with the sh4/5 which is not footwear or 'go away'?
sk5/20 - past tense of 'to agitate'
sorry - sk5/20 - think oh my g***
can't get oo4 or ot4!
oo4 - think oo** and aahs
which sh do you need? Confused! the oo is a sound you make, and the ot4 is a man's name.
ot4 - think of a man's name - a palindrome
thanks champ
and glantarell
np
thanks!
i need a sh4/5. I have one which is pl of footwear, and another which is a word people use to tell children to go away
sh 5 12?
pl of the sh4 which means 'go away'
*fireworks*
then it's the freaky one that makes no sense to me...sh+ **nse your dirty dishes before putting in dishwasher.
oops sorry had that one...needed the sh 6 33
Gongrats Glantarell!!!!!
the 6/33 is plural of the 5/20 congrats Glantarell!
pl of pt of to move something about quickly
Outta here peeps...best of luck, and see ya tomorrow!
anybody want any clues - I can stay for a little while
ro7,32 please
Past tense of the 5,10 before it.
need ho 5 12 the second one please.
Does that help, crafty?
nm got it.

sk+ m*** pit at concert
woo hoo mkg
yes fireworks!
yaa for mkg!!
Thanks for the clues!!
noswaith dda, glantarell!!!! hey all!
I wasn't going to post a note, seeing as how I am officially taking time off of class to recuperate more from being sick... but I just had to stop by while I wait for lunch to digest. :-D
hi all
good to see you unofficially stopping by stidmama!
hey nrk! how's the snow removal business? *innocent mama look*
I paused it for 2 days while suffering through major head cold
tonight we're getting ice, so tomorrow will be an adventure
I haven't had a head cold in almost 2 years... I forgot how miserable they are
hi stidmama
oh oh... it's a cold-like virus that I am recovering from as well. I slept ALL day yesterday, made it through this morning's class and then decided to come home and rest more.
oh, I think ice is WAY worse than snow.
well, it's nearly midnight here, so I'm off to bed!
night all *poof*
it is worse, but at least I don't have to worry about where to put it :)
night Glantarell
sweet dreams glantarell! (((hugs)))
that's true, ice doesn't tend to pile up quite as much.
hi all! long time no chat
2 words to go... I love this grid
JEN! (((((hugs and hugs))))) hope you are well?
i also have 2 left
howdy jen
I would like the O in the lower right corner for NBT and then my eyes need a break already.
(((cross!)))
crossy, wanna trade?
((stidmama))
mione are both s,s nrkii
STID!!! We are all well... preparing for our move in August (yes, already!)
mine
o in lower right is a place for musical performance
I need one S, and one H... 1 4 letters and 1 6 letters
hm. thanks nrk *thinking* Jen -- moving home?
stid, Keats, *** ** a Grecian Urn
Nope, moving to bulgaria
AHA! for some reason I thought that was a movie theater!
still trying to learn bulgarian!
I think it is now, but only because of branding
oh! TO BULGARIA???? wow... that is going to be totally way-cool-nifty-neato. Will you keep a blog so we can track your adventures?
thanks for the Os in the corner nrkii!!!
thanks NRK, that means I am NBT!
AND suddenly well past halfway
what an amazing, wonderful adventure you will have, Jen. I admit to feeling somewhat envious... though I am really a homebody and don't even like going to Seattle for day trips! LOL
I am really bad with technology Stid (not even on facebook!), so probably no blog, but will definitely hop on here to check up on you all and update my profile
that's cool, Jen -- *wracks brain* I go to facebook rarely -- are we "friends" there?
I have never gone to facebook, so probably not, LOL. I miss out on a lot of discounts from stores since I don't go and "like" them!!!
I don't do any of those things on facebook, Jen -- I completely distrust their privacy processes. Not even games any more. Just pop in to see what people are up to once or twice a week.
I'm addicted. Privacy be damned.
:)
How's your kiddo doing with the impending change in location? Or are you waiting until closer to the time to discuss it in detail?
fireworks!
LOL nrk! that's what they are counting on!
YAY nrk!
amen stid! this is actually the only chat I go on too. sigh, no tweets, no likes or un-friending... I am in the stone age but I like it!
WTG nrkii!
Snow day tomorrow!!! First one in YEARS. Woot!
woo-hoo indeed sue!
*hands a rock to Jen to help turn off TV later*
I love facebook. 3 weeks ago, I reconnected with the guy I had a mad crush on when I was 17. We've been emailing and talking on skype ever since (he's in Iraq right now). We have completely reestablished our friendship, just like that. Would not have happened without FB.
wow. That 's neat, nrk.
woo hoo sue! We federal workers don't get snow days anymore (at least until we get a Pres from the south who has never dealt with snow)
and that's just one of the people I've reconnected with... there are many others
I was talking with my children the other day, and realized that with one notable exception, there is only one person with whom I am in regular contact from pre-college... and only a few from college.
also, just for picture sharing alone, it's worth it
we do not get snow days up here..unless it buries the building you are trying to get into lol
And I am not all that interested in being in contact with more! LOL
It is so easy to lose touch, stid. That's what has made Facebook so great for me. I've found people that I wish I had never lost touch with.
and yes, a few that I'm just as happy to stay out of touch with
I have one high school friend I keep in touch with, and that's enough... remarkably, no college friends.... they all dropped me when I started dating my (now) hubby and found their pot smoking repulsive
*sends up message to snow angels to block the entrance to cross' building -- AFTER everyone is out and home safe!*
lol
yep. pot smoking isn't so attractive once a person reaches a certain age...
okay, speaking of old friends, time to make a phone call
have a great night everyone
okay, my eyes are tired and the lunch is making me sleepy.
sweet dreams nrk!
well, I've been at the university for 23 years, and this is maybe the second snow day ever. Conditions are pretty horrible, and a lot of our students commute significant distances.
see you-all again later after I nap a bit. *yawn*
g'night stid and nrk!
have a good nappies stidmama
Jen, I was really happy to see you today! Please DO stay in touch -- and feel free to email me if you want to stay in touch.
*wonders if nappies in Canada mean the same as in the U.K.....*
*poof*
Stid, I definitely will! it's hard with the language training to actually get on, but will try to more often
2 left,i and giving it 15 minutes more and i am listing!

We had 6 or 7 inches of light fluffy snow. They are saying 4 to 6 inches of some combination of snow, sleet and/or freezing rain.
we had an inch or so of sleet then freezing rain. more mix tonight with accumulating ice, but not as much as fist thought
I worked from home today and I will do so again tomorrow. It seems to work out. Just when I get totally frustrated by the slow response time, it is time to shovel.
it is miserable. i am thinking of gon to the ABBA tribute band thursday to lift my spirits. i am a closet abba fan
Sounds like you should have a good time, TO. I think everyone's spirits are in need of a lift about now.

LA, jmc is the person who introduced me to Babble. She has completely ruined my life.

Hello. I need help on my last word
HU6 one of the last 2 please.
make that HO6
ho 6 21, the first one is much like a riding animal with an extra vowel on the end. the other 6 21 ho is plural.
I have the riding animal 5 and the 5 immediately following it as well as its plural. Is there another ho6 right there/
?
There are two ho 6 words.

hey all. taking a break from working on my resume *sigh* I HATE resumes....
sorry about your long commutes, Min. ((hugs))
Any hints for the bottom right o's?
HELP, worst storm of the year and I am one sk5 word away from the first time ever solving a puzzle.
go donnie go!!!
I don't have SK yet...
Well, if you do not have it stidmama, I guess I am up a creek. How's your weather?
Donnie - sk5/20 is sk + long legged bird **tric*
oh. now I do. sk + *** k*** b'g*** (clothing jingle)
sk + g*** is that you?
RURU!!! (((hugs))) was thinking about you earlier -- not sure why, just was!
oh.. wow.. that's nice.. what about?
skort
our weather, Donnie, in the pacific northwest is unseasonably dry, and warm during the day but colder than normal in the evenings. Wish it were more seasonal, we need snowpack!
well, I was thinking about how lovely our weather is, and how much nicer it is on this side of the mountains, and how I wish you were going to be over here instead of in Walla2, though I completely understand your reasons... *sigh*
sk + oh g***!
sounds like wash
hello all, how are you
LEt's see how it goes Stid.
Hi weedie
hey feather! LOL having so much fun following your fantasy "first meets" with all your buddies!
aren't they awesome!
P.S. poor ruru bunny! I am certain Scrabs would not approve!
lol.. nothing like a rabbit hopped up on coffee
this is perhaps my favorite one of all of them: DeDe Kupps We met years ago (I will not divulge how long ago) You were a wearing gogo boots and bad royal blue polyester, Now I wear gogo boots and fierce frocks! What a role reversal!
rofl feather!
wonder if caffein makes their hare raise?
DeDe is otherwise known as Jeff, now a drag queen. He's referring to marching band boots and uniforms.
evening, lovies
hi jess
hello jes
hey jes!
oh, and doug had to change his, because scrabs already posted one that was wayyyy too similar to what he wanted to post!
oh! *grins even wider* he would LOVE my pink sequin Babble jacket (when I ever get time to make it that is)
*snicker* cute pic, ruru
I have no idea as to what you two are talking about
I liked doug's final post though... *wonders how true to life it is*
lol!
jes! don't encourage him!
donnie, did you get your sk?
LOL, whenever he goes out to get groceries on Friday nights, he mentions how he's off to work his corner
but it IS cute, stid
ruru, i posted on facebook for people to tell how we met, but to outright lie about it. i've been getting some great stories!
stid needs a sense of humor today
stid needs some loves from a sweet little beagle mix dog :D
LOL Vanna's dress this evening is almost the same color as the un-turned tiles...
oh..I could create something really wild
stid does need loves from sweet little dog... but stid does NOT want to divorce her tom! *difficult decisions...*
ooooh..... down to TEN!
hehehe
(well .. stid you could turn tom into a dog and have it both ways)
this is how stid supposedly met me: we met when you were my high school art teacher -- supposedly the youngest high school art teacher ever -- anyway, you thought my crayon rendition of the sistine chapel was excellent, though the school board thought I should have asked permission before recreating it on the gym ceiling. ah, those were the days!
shhh ruru! I put my wand and cauldron away when I took human form....
oh geez I can do better than that..lol
i don't have a facebook page, feather, but i remember how you and i met...
uh oh jes, let's hear it!
another favorite of mine was this: It was Vail, wasn't it? A bit of a catfight, because we were wearing the same supposedly exclusive snowbunny outfit. Didn't we just take it out of Frederico's hide when we found he'd sold the same outfit to both of us? Ha ha!
*waits for jes to tell*
lol, i think the whole chog is breathlessly waiting
we were stuck together at the airport waiting for our plane, for over THREE hours, before they finally decided to cancel the flight outright. The airline tried to place everyone in hotels, because we were going to be stuck in town overnight, but all the hotels near the airport were full because of some convention...
Association of Sadistic Dental Practicioners, or something like that.
EEEEK!!!!!! LOL!
oh this is good
*stage whisper* ruru was at that convention...
*evil laugh*
Stidmama, I feel like the biggest dummy cause I have not gotten it yet. Tried every which way but no go. Thanks for your help!!!!!
FINISHED!! VERY EXCELLENT!!
SKOSH
YAY godthaab!!!!
congrats godthaab!
try that donnie
RURU!!!! rofl
bad ruru!!!
*puts HUGE pile of choclits and several nice red wines in PB*
I hate to see people misreable
*takes away treats and leaves bread and water*
So the airline asked if some people would mind sharing rooms, and you and I ended up bunking together in the Honeymoon Suite. The Jacuzzi was quite nice, as was the company. From my perspective, anyway.
2 of my kids are going to try going outside. gusting 50 mph winds...i hope they come back.
LMAO, even better jes!
yay godthaab :)
oh good.... tie ropes around their waists or something to anchor them!
you left out the best parts jess
good clue, ruru, thanks :)
well, yeah, ru, this is a public forum!
did you forget that feather ordered room service and two hunky waiter showed up and asked if you two needed company while hot tubbing..
*giggling*
doug's gonna ask why i'm laughing up here again
I did NOT forget that, but since I didn't have a bathing suit, I didn't feel the rest of the chog needed to know about it :P
and that she was extremely shocked when they showed up on the bill at the hotel
okay, I am stuck at 7 words, and my head is starting to ache. Will stop for a while and then go back to that blasted resume. *sigh* Don't know why I am dragging my feet... My plan is to just substitute teach for a couple years and then apply for jobs at places I want!
i thought they were complimentary!
rofl... silly silly people.... *Poof*
she put up a big fuss at the front desk and the police had to come calm her down
bye stid!
fr5,18 for firewoiks please
see ya, stid! *hugs*
it wasn't that bad, ruru, it was just hotel security
is it a term for a freshman?
the officer asked feather her name and she blurted out "Weed" and they looked at her funny and started asking more questions
Bless your heart rururocks, I got it you spelled it all the way now I have to figure out what it means. I think something like kosher, but will check dictionary. Thanks for helping me beat the beast.
it went downhill from there
LMAO!!! KJE, get in here!
yes feather.... FIREWORKS!!!!!!!!!!!1
yay lil!
your welcome donnie
you are I mean
you are I mean
yay, lil monkey!
then the officers can feather a sobriety test in the hotel lobby while the sadistic dentists were watching with glee
gave
but she passed the test
*methinks ruru needs a sobriety test now*
and security was quickly distracted by the fist-fight between 2 of the dentists
LOL
surprisingly one of the fighting dentists was feather's first boyfriend from high school
thus my everlasting paranoia of dentists! aha!
oh, that was AWKWARD when security escorted him past and he kept yelling how much he missed her
He remembered that first kiss.. which is why he went into dentistry
hey now! LOL
Okay, so I was wrong it means just a tad bit, just a little bit, a small amout. I started playing this last year and have never, ever completed a whole puzzle. Granted there are only 70 words, but this is a winner for me.
He married someone else.. but never, ever forgot feather
did you finish the grid donnie? congrats!
i'm very memorable...
turned out okay in the end though, cuz the manager at the hotel had a gripe about someone at the airline anyway, so they charged the "room service" to the airline...
(weed's now trying to change the subject)
Thanks, i did featherbee
lol, i want to say goodnight and go to bed, but i don't want to leave before the story's done!
yes.. the airline didn't know it because the charge just said: C-boys
and it was Virgin Airlines on top of that
hi all
hi t&c
LOL, Virgin Airlines
hi tea
ahahahaha! I give...that tops anything i could counter with, ruru
*rests his case*
heeheehee. ok, on that note, i'm going to bed! *off to dream of cabana boys and airplanes*
I will write how you and I met Weed.. saving you from pirates in NOrth Africa sometime
sleep sweet, feather :)
ooooh, i look forward to it!
bye!
hey, i need word suggestions! working on the webpage for the veterinary clinic, and need a tagline for under the banner.
Hi Everybody! Great story jes and ruru! I feel for feather, though!
right now, it just says "treatment for a wide variety of animals"
thinking it needs to be something... caring, or compassionate maybe... treatment
or a whole other cute/clever tagline
hi nef :) oh, she enjoyed the jacuzzi too, nef, don't worry!
where's your webpage, jes?
chewelahveterinaryclinic.com
really still in progress!
current project is getting the pictures sized and centered, so the page is changing in real time right now
treatment is kind of a cold term; would "providing compassionate care for a wide variety of animals (Gods' critters?)
What the heck is a "camelid?"
Am trying to avoid "compassionate" specifically, because our (basically only) competitor's website's tagline is "compassionate care for companion animals"
a camelid is any camel or relative thereof, like alpacas and llamas
yeah; stay away from compassionate then
and i don't wanna be copycatty
humane and tender?
everything i come up with sounds so... clinical
Quality
humane, tender, caring treatment of a wide variety of animals
(actually "for" not "of")
or i could go with something totally humorous... "We treat anything except primates and venomous snakes!"
and then they walk in with a komodo dragon, right? ;-)
right. and I'd ... try... to treat it. restraint could be interesting.
"ministering to all creatures except primates and venomous critters"
i guess it's not entirely truthful, since i will only treat large predators if the owner provides a safe place for restraing
restraint
i don't have a good facility for bears or tigers...
I don't know, my sister's a vet in NW MN and some horses and cows can be pretty dangerous too! (She got brucelosis from a needle stick after drawing blood from a cow)
'quality care for coveted creatures'
hi all ;)
yeah, but i have stocks and a squeeze chute. a bear wouldn't fit though, and tiger'd go over them without much issue
hi pini! :)
i would request the owner tie the mouth shut on a komodo before i did anything with it though!
the cow was spooked and crashed into her, pinning her between the barn wall and the cow.
ouch
Hi Pini! I like that!
oh, hey, jes...question for you (re dogs)
thx Nef ;)
and a horse once broke her jaw when it reared up on her. She keeps saying these were "nice" animals, not wild
Koda woke me up this morning "huffing"...
whole turkey is probably a bit much for one meal, even for a large dog
...and puked a couple of times, but mostly liquid, nothing solid.
Nef, do you think your sis should change professions?
heh. they are nice, nef...but handling a horse is like handling a 1200 pound cat--they get tired of you or spooked, and you've gotta watch all limbs and head and stay out of the way if they run!
turkey jokes aside, she eat anything unusual last night? how'd she act the rest of the day?
...anything I should be worried about?
Koda (he)...nope, nothing out of the ordinary...he doesn't get people food except for carrots and sometimes peanut butter in his bone as a treat.
LOL, Pini! She went into vet. med. because she couldn't stand sick people. AFTER she was a vet, she decided that *I* had a better job because she had had to listen to the animals' illness plus the owners' health and worries
acting okay since? interested in food and hold it down today?
took him to work with me (just in case) and he did very well, only one episode this morning right after we arrived and then late this afternoon a couple of light huffing sessions (only lasting a few huffs each)
it's true, nef. i hear way more than i ever wanted to about owners' health issues!
ate dinner tonight and he's sleeping right now...
he did well at work today...just kinda hung out with me
good point, nef...learned her lesson did she? :)
i'd watch for coughing and/or hard breathing, maybe take his temperature (normal is 101 F, over 103 is a fever). repeated vomiting is worth getting checked out. and they can aspirate from even one vomit incident, so if you notice coughing or hard breathing, get that looked at
thx jes...will do!!! ;)
i usually don't fret much if one of mine vomits once, i just assume they snuck something they weren't supposed to have, like chicken poo...
ewwwwwwwwwww
if they continue vomiting for more than an hour or so, i get more concerned
that makes sense...rather like a little kid...
indeed, much like a kid... my md friend says in school, they called the pediatric students veterinarians ;)
* giggle *
any clues for that bottom left R, word please?
don't have it, sorry
ry4
keep going right
thanks, pini
thanks pini!
yvw
I tried everything else, should have known that would be a WORD!
hi all, and how's the blizzard hittin' ya?
evening, gwen
It's not hitting here today; but I'm pretty darn tired of snow myself
hi gwen
no snow here, just bloody cold
we here in detroit are battening down. they have already announced school closings for tomorrow
no snow here...haven't seen any at all this year except for new year's day up on the mountain
we have some high winds, and it's really cold, but only a few flakes so far
supposed to be 4F here tonight, and windy too
we're at 35F right now and it's supposed to drop to 23F tonight, but we still won't get snow...just the cold
weirdly it's supposed to be 40 and raining by the weekend.
big swings
egad, 27 mph winds and 17F is the forecast for tonight. glad i have food in.
speaking of ... I should go find a sweatshirt or something warm to eat
that's mighty windy
were having an ice storm
bundle up, gwen!
wearing slippers and three shirts
hi shorty .... you, too (bundle up)
(brb)
Pini, are you going to eat a sweatshirt?
hi shorty
because she forgot to get soup, nef
hi shorty
our tree in our front yard branches falling off everywhere were not gonna have a tree left
hi nef
i believe i am going to go make cocoa. back shortly
aw, poor little tree!
or, the lovely bruce could beat me to it. he's SO worth keeping
hey all -- poor shorty-tree!
:-D the lovely bruce seems to be pretty wonderful, all right!
i know its really bare now lol stid
this is what we had for dinner last night: http://brainweevil.com/food/bacon-chee seburger-chowder
(delivered to me at work, because i was stuck there until almost 9pm)
nice guy!
oh! suddenly down to 5!
heh. still stuck at 30
go jes go!
my brain is not compatible with this grid, i think
there were a lot of words with oo in the middle I thought
three.... (slow going now)
i'm apparently missing them all then... i think i only have 1 oo containing word
two...
you have the pirate captain ho and plural, yes?
i have ten words with -oo-
two more starting letters with those combos.
hey gwen!
zup stid?!?
I have 15 oo words so far.
not much. eyes hurt, so trying to finish grid and go to sleepy-bye land.
those extra 5 mist be 5 of the 9 words i still need. hu4ing . . .
how are you these days gwen? getting hammered with weather too?
(too, as in like the other babblers but not those of us on the pacific coast)
I think I will list for the last two. brb
we are expecting a blizzard. schools are already to be closed tomorrow. my church has canceled its weds night thing. already super cold here
one....
yeah; 15 of them would make a mighty chunk in what i have left :)
I am worried about the people who lack the skill, money or awareness to be safe in this storm.
firweeds!
i was at the grocery store today and a lot more shopper than usual, even accounting for the usual tuesday "senior citizen discount" day. people buying candles and flashlights and stuff
wtg stiddddddddddd !!!!!!!!!
yay, stid!
YAY, stid!!!!! WTG!!!
Yes, I saw a friend's facebook post yesterday about the crush of the crowd at the store she works at.
We try to keep about a two week supply of food on hand no matter what, and with the generator we are assured of at least that long for water and power.
hey Nef! where did you come from?
i need one more F. is there one weird F?
But... this year it seems it is not necessary
before soph?
Good evening to my fellow babblers! How is everyone?
By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! YAY!
hello Min! welcome to the grid!
I've been here; but my daughter is gabbering away and distracting me
have before soph
you have plural the wood-carving tool?
hi Min
fr4, fr5, fr5, fu4, fu4
hi min :)
*waves at Nef daughter* hope you're having fun!
I am done! I have fireworks!wu6/33 was my last word
another fu 4.... LOL
money, animal hair, anger
YAY min!
hmmm, wood carving, must be it. hu4ing again . . .
wtg minnnnnnnnnnn !!!!!!
found the missing F, and have been fish slapped by my own brain twice already
WTG, Min!!!! YAY!!!
LOL go gwen go!
It did not take me eo 4/4 to finish grid. All the words have been hu 6/27 and found. Now here is a story of clues. As soon as I discovered Babble, I was ho4/9ed! I love to hu 4/6 for words in the grid. Sometimes the grid ties my stomach in kn5/18 if it is a hard grid. Or my stomach gets kn 7/48 if I'm rushed to find my last few words right before the flip. However, any grid is worth doing if it leads to fireworks. I like to hear the sounds of my own oo 4/5s and aahs when I watch my fireworks.Also like to see ro5/10 from other babblers when I finish. I hope you've taken no 4/4 of my clues and found some words.Hubby is being a sn4/4. Hubby wants computer. I told hubby that I needed a sk5/20 more time but he does not care. I wish I could sh 4/6 husband from Farmville, but hell hath no fu4/10 like a husband sans Farmville! He has to go feed his ho5/12 and ro5/10er on Farmville. I cannot ro 4/8 him of his Farmville time. He thinks he is going to get to 4/4 of time on Farmville, but I'll sh 4/5 him off the computer in an hour and return to Babble.Be back later tonight
aha! thanks for helping out that way Min!
just found 3 more -oo- words. more fish!!!
i am going to have to say bonne nuit for now, and abbiento. My eyes hurt and must move away from close work.
sleep sweet, stid :)
**hugs and choclits for all** see you tomorrow! *poof*
UNO
! * F * I * R * E * W * E * E * D * S * !

Hello from below zero Colorado Springs (-20)... ice covering every single window.... hope all are staying warm
My bro is an emt in Chicago and is saying it's impossible to get ambulances around due to the trucks keep getting stuc.
hello all, from a very hot 42 degrees centigrade..in NSW Australia. Please spare a thought for those in north Queensland, Australia, who are preparing for the onslaught of a large cyclone...weather people reckon it will be larger than 'Katrina'
Hello everyone from the middle of the blizzard. The wind is howling, the snow is falling, the plows are kinda working, and I hope it all ends before I have to head to work in the morning. They aren't closing grocery stores, sadly.
Oh, hear you diz, thoughts and prayers with you and all in the area
And you know what? Today may be -20 degrees here but it'll be 55 on Friday.
knut, sounds like the one that's hearing for Toronto area?
hello
we live on a crazy continent, don't we diz, here we are in SEQ cleaning up floods while FNQ braces for cyclone and VIC has out-of-control fires!
well my temp went from 60 this afternoon to 27 now. Luckily no snow but they say later this week.
I'm just north of Chicago, so, yes. Absolutely. Probably worse since it has to pass over the lakes to get to you.
think i'll move to south africa. i hear it's less turbulent
not me knut, but my sons living there
Hadn't heard about cyclone or fires - world is going crazy!
my brothers in chicago .. hes a paramedic... says its impossible to get ambulances anywhere.. they keep getting stuck in the snow and they cant see out the windows
