Do you think if we bawled and squalled Lickety would put the list up? HUH? HUH?

he's too busy playing games on Facebook
Has he put us up for adiotion. Jilli?
adoption....
who knows, peach
maybe next time he comes in we had better be soooooooo very nice to him. Throw compliment after compliment at him
hi again all
hi crys
I don't think he comes in at all; just sends the clues
see y'all later, then.
hi crys!
morning all... Lickety has been giving our community clues (and a browser) without any compensation for almost all days in the last couple of years. I would say he can skip a week or some if he feels like it without getting remarks?
I don't use Lickety's (anymore)... worried about him though, not sure how he does it but if he's playing on facebook he should be alright...
sprite I think Lickety is my hero and I guess we all just realise how bad we are without him. ( well I am bad without him)
I don't think anyone is being disrespectful toward Lickety, just expressing disappointment
I use his browser, not his clues, but I really appreciate his efforts.
me too crys
lickety has a browser?
all I mean is he can play games on Facebook or play soccer or whatever he wants. His clues are a courtesy, not an obligation. That is how I see it, anyway.
crystalle: the Babble Expert. Especially for Babble. Best feature for me is the chat window. If you put in one word, it goes to the words. If you put in more words (use a space), it goes to the chat. Just brilliant.
just - 2 x em9
sorry, scratch that, read my list wrong
anyone have all Es or Is?
so still short 2 9's?
short 2 i's df...
same
where would I find this babble browser?
in6 8 7 7 8 5 6 7 8 4 6 7 7 5
I have in 4, 6, 8, 7, 5, 6, 7, 8, 7, 4, 6, 7, 7, 5 so far
just email Lickety and he will give you the download link.
Lickety is certainly entitled to do whatever he wants -- we who are not as clever as others are just so grateful for his lists.
se9
and I had the singular too! (thanks freep)
But it's sleepytime for me, so goodnight. Only 154 words found :-(
hugs jili
I think that's great Jilli
it is not about clever, I think. I just hope Lickety is enjoying himself on Facebook, if that is what he is doing.
goodnight jill
night jilli!
night jilli, see you tomorrow night?
funny, that whenever I speak up for someone or something, I get that 'not so clever as others' thrown at me. I'd say that is beside the point. But suit yourself, I'll be gone from chog until later today.
*gasp* 420!!
btw, it's 6:45 pm in Oz so it may be dinnertime there.
no one was saying anything against Lickety!!
omg sprite .No one was trying to insult lickety.
and "not so clever" wasn't "thrown" at anyone!
have a good day sprite... I think you took the mood of the conversation wrong... lickety did not need defended... we all love him... we don't need to be reprimanded
phant sentient
I'm always amazed that some of the original babblers can solve these grids with no lists or clues.
Some people simply do tend to use the list more than others and frankly not all players in here are at same intelligence level. I certainly wasn't saying that lickety did anything wrong on the contrary I think we were just pointing out how much we value what he does
me too jilli, I could not
df will you look at your i list again... mine is nowhere close to yours :~)
arose
gah
for one, this lurker is very grateful for the clues and lists you are all contributing!
ty kanga hugs to you
I usually need a bit of chogreading for some words... practice helps with being list-less :o)
hugs back, dee
Its not only lickety's clues I use. I use volley's list in her profile a lot too
anyway, as I said before, I'm off, and yes flosey -- see you tomorrow evening at bridge.
so true df
sleep well jili
g'night jilli
i'm gonna have to give up in a couple, too
got so much farther than I ever thought!
in fact i used volley's list for the last grid!

dee if you have some quick steps to make a list i can put it in my profile
WTG JOSH
congrats josh!
I have been doing it through excel... paste into 5 columns; add a column in between words and 1st stat, then use a formula arb gave me
actually, now that i think about it. i definitely typed my last word, but it was during the nightly hiccup so it was not accepted. ughhhh
awww makes sense whey it didn't "take" then
=CONCATENATE(LEFT(A1,2)," ",B1, "/", C1)
(assuming your word/letters/points are in columns A/B/C)
I have to make dinner so I am giving up For now. Happy babbling
something like =left($B1,2)
down to 8 left
=CONCATENATE(LEFT(A1,2)," ",B1, "/", C1) works as one command
yeah, i don't have excel, so i don't think this is going to work. i have the mac proprietary spreadsheet program and the paste does not want to go in correctly
i will just list s's and t's one sec
ty if I find my 8, I'll be glad to post

Those are the two re9 words I have so far.
And check your e-mail, Flask, list sent to you.
420 words! OMG! Shall I call in sick to work so I can finish the grid?
We leave it to your conscience, lil*.
I have and re. A percentage of a fee that is held back.
oh my! Well the only other choice is to run away quickly!
But when you see all those words waiting to be entered...
An re 9 that is.
yes I know Haz.... several are jumping out at me.... must resist.... can't stop typing..... arggghhhhhhh!
One more to go.
I had a wee debate with myself because I knew without the convenience of Lickety's list it would be a slog and no guarantee of finishing. Then I thought, 'am I a babbler or am I not?'
To be or not to be a Babbler!
haz, list in volleymomdee's profile
I am now entering words in my list! I have decided to do the grid!
Oh, I know, grannyrose, I have it, thanks.
isn't she a blessing?
Absolutely.
According to her list there are only three re9 words so we can call off the hunt for another.
Thanks for the re9s you clued Haz.
You're welcome, Molly.
420! Wowee! Good day to all.
Hello, Scrabbler.

PB fictitious Penalty Box
Hello, All :-)
hi Zooz
Have you dried out yet, Lynxxx?
All dry - just some mess/repairs to attend to. Not as bad as some around here
Thats good to hear, the insurance will pay for that...a pain in the bum non the less.
Insurance is being very obliging, they are not even sending assessors out for any claims under $3000. Hopefully mine won't amount to more than that
Hey..you could drop the dog figurine you don`t like into the mess, Get your money back :-)
good morning everyone;) aussies,aussies everywhere:))
senhores
Hello, Crossy :-)
Sorry!
mmmm now how can I work that in....
Ooh thanks, Haz :-)
Hello Cross & Haz
I knew as soon as I pressed en5/10 that I'd be straight to PB. Hello!
There are a whole raft of Spanish and Portugese ladies and gentlemen.
Only just start here, so taking all mistakes gladly :-)
goose sighting:)
*Passing a warm, buttered scone to Haz in the PB*
Much appreciated, Molly.
just found two 9 words in a row..very rare for me.
te 9 just found
re is similar, Crossy :-)
I have the te9, although I'm not quite sure what it means.
it is a fastening device
even more tight i would of thought.
or a measurment of the accuracy of said device in psi
That's strange, the dictionary lists "no definition".
i know,have used to to fasten loads onto flatbeds
are not the little do-dads on the ends of stringed instruments also called this?
no they are called thingamajigs
lol
ahh doo-hickeys
yep
No, they are called tuning keys.
Thingmebobs, surely.
watch-a-ma-calli-its
My Dad would have called them "wigwams for a gooses bridle"
Or tuners. Buy y'all go with your doo hickey things. : P
reminds me of when i used to be in construction,we would always send the new guy out for something strange on his first day,like ask him to go get a can of steam,or a skyhook or maybe a bubble for a broken level;0
or a long weight
hello all
or spotted paint
long weight is cute!
oh that's cruel ;)
Hello, Kallia :-)
or a bindle roller,for the wheel barrrow cause the pn on it has been tourqued out lol
or even a cheese wire sharpner..lol
you got it!
hello zooz...how are you today?
Not too bad thanks..think i have a cold coming :-(
How are you?
give the guy 50 dollars and tell him to check every hardware store and not to come back without it,ev en if it takes half a day..hehe
chicken soup for Zooz!
hope it clears up quickly...touch wood I've been relatively lucky this winter...
poor zooz
oh I'm fine, just cant wait for this horrible grey weather to go away.....hate this time of year
oops didn't notice the time - Night all
I do have a chicken soup handy...will have it when i reach 300 words :-)
gn lynxx
Goodnight, lynxx.
night lynxxx
Take care, Lynxxx :-)
hello Haz
Hello, Kallia.
Hello, Kallia.
420 words??? You're kidding!!!!
long time no see
wow..only 300 words to go here...:((
About time we had a reasonable sized grid :-)
something like 108 s,s;(
I don't worry about finishing these days
lost the compulsion to do that....gained a lot of time LOL
Mmm, as a new player I feel like I've been thrown in at the deep end. A 'mere' 300 to go ;)
also I'm still on yesterday's icon theme, and forgot where to find the list :-/
Hello, Silver, you can do it.
hello silver, enjoy you don't need to finish:)
Silver Rocket -welcome and just enjoy the fun of finding words more quickly than you can type them in. That's the best bit of these huge grids.
Sprite i think, Uusue.
Lickety's list is up.
yup,just have fun silver rocket.first 6 months i used to kill myself to finish the grids,but time brings wisdom....now i just beg for words near the end;))
yaa for lickety!!
Go here for the icon theme list...http://www.playbabble.com/profi le_mini.php?id=24882
Oh, sorry, icon theme. Loved by some, ignored by others.
thanks! I'm here for ulterior motives anyway; just keeping my English fresh before (hopefully) spending a year in the UK!
well,your english sounds better than mine;)
great place to do that Silver...you're in Seville aren't you?
Be warned that some of the words you'll find will be of precisely no use in normal conversation.
wow, I did it without looking! My icon is my dog, Sera, a labradoodle we rescued from the local shelter about 1.5 years ago. A real sweetie who (unlike some of us) absolutely loves the snow!
yep, but she can have fun trying to fit them into sentences Haz
This is true.
now that is an assumption on my part.....may be male
Sevilla España, correct. But I'm no señorita ;)
ah...sorry ..just said I may have assumed!
seniorina rocket?
:)
you really need tgo go to the PB Silver......
lots of spanish people in the grid!
whoops, sorry! didn't realise.
Not for senorita, it's the Mr and Mrs who are there. And the Spanish are joined by their Portugese counterparts.

Morning Ruby. How is your husband today?
I love this grid! 95 words in 12 minutes!
{{crossy}}
the infection is in his blood as well as his lungs, but he's given up on "breaking out"
sots
Well, I hope he takes his medicine, gets some rest and is well soon.
sorry to hear that ruby
1/3 done lol
sorry about the word, phone rang and I got rattled when they said it was the hospital, but it was just a money question....
pneumonia is a nasty thing to deal with sometimes, I pray all goes well for him
hope hubby gets well soon ruby
thank you all; I am glad he's adjusted to staying as long as it takes
I have been working on re words for ages and I mean ages
nothing like feeling all of your air is coming through a straw to make one obey the nurses
ruby, have they put him on thickened liquids? My husband absolutely hated that
he doesn't eat much, but he eats regular food, especially if I bring it
what was in the thickened liquids?
Aren't thickened liquids to prevent aspiration?
they use honey sometimes other times its a strachy powder that they add
his antibiotics come in powder form which he must drink, but he's good about it
yes molly it is but also to prevent liquids from going directly to the longs
s
poor ruby
hi all

I do believe i will have to remain sitting for a while *dizzy*
scrabbs,do you know anything about "glabrinex" tm?
I am at work til about 3 and will race home to check on him. He had better be eating his greens.
No, but I will google it
if it is all hype ,i will not bother,but i can only be ordered in the states
It's not the pale moon that excites me..

sorry for ruining your great clue, aloy!

hi une
bonjour une
lovely song tho
hey, jmc
salut, ruby!
hi Une
ooh, the sun just came out.. brb
so i am guess 500 re words today?
Crossy, I would avoid all of those so-called "fat burners". Eat a balanced diet, but eat less of it, do a weight program, exercise like crazy
i thought as much:)
crossy has his snowshoes by the door;)
jmc, I "only" have 28 re's so far LOL
no magic, crossy, I'm afraid, 3500 calories to a pound!
well that is not as bad as i feared une
Yep, there is no magic diet other than eating fewer calories than you burn off.
lol,judging by the way you describe yourself ruby,it would take 4 of you to make one of me in the scales lol
oh, but I have 145 words to go!! LOL
376 left :-(
hahah, crossy
yaa for une!
go une go
my son has been helping plan foods to fatten husband up when he comes home as he is down to 127 lbs
that was quick, une
oh no, ruby -- I was here at the flip :-)
lol,my left leg weighs 127 pounds...
ruby, just feed him lots of that fabbo french full fat cheese!
goose
I thought you did it in 10 minutes, une!
ohmygod, no! LOL
goose with a lei lol
I weighed 127 lbs when I was 12.
he doesn't like cheese or fried food; I will have to be slyer than that: couscous, meatloaf, roast chicken
i was 165 when i was 14 lol
slipping in butter and eggs when I can
and do not forget that bacon!
Grrrr, nurse just approached with a "walk-in." Why do people continue to believe they can just show up and expect to be seen NOW.
I weighed 127 when I gave birth to my son!
make him smoothies: banana and ice and any other fruit
he's french and doesn't like cheese?! pas possible! LOL
poor scwabby
Ha..i accidently put `A` in front of the giddy up word and it took it..LOL..was sort of one word is that.
ruby, that's amazing
Pour olive oil on all of his food.
he's from St. Louis, hahah
TY for that reminder, zoom
ooohhhhh
hmm giddy
giddyup word?
mr. ed

hi Annie! yw
hi Aloy!
sometimes it helps to multitask.. put the sheets in the washer, come back to the grid and see words you overlooked
lots to overlook in this grid, lol
that happens to me quite often, I simply cannot find another word, then I leave to do something else and when I come back the words flow for a while
"fresh eyes" (-:
does anyone have any of the last 4 so words
so + a red wine for so5.20
havent listed yet crystal so not sure
so5/20 - so plus not out separated by the last letter in the alphabet.
Add a vowel to the end for another, plural that, and then plural the original so5/20.
Hi Haz :)
the others are just extentions
Hello, Annie and everyone.

Hi Norma
Hello, Norma.
Hi Norma
Hi, Norma. :)
((Annie)) good morning, I am now, I did 150 this morning
hello Norma
Hi Norma
I think if you like finding words, the chance of finding 420 of them sounds more attractive than finding 120.
Mom, that is a good plan, might implement that myself
I take exception to the ho 8/45 word. I would think it would be more ho 6/21 and not the 8
My ideal would be a nice big grid on a lazy Sunday!
Ok 43 more to find..taking a break.
Is the em 9 an extension of the words preceding that one?
wow, Zoozz, that is great.
wtg, zooz
em9 - the quality of

i seriously screwed up by not living near mom
I could have meals everyday and ironing!
lol KJE

my mom loved ironing!!
now off I go.
hagd mom
Hi Mom..glad to see you back
good ,mom.x
hi saanichat,kje and boo
lol kje
hi Lillian
my m.i.l iron jeans and dish cloths...:/
my mam lives in another country so have to do my own:((
hey Lill!
yipee. i am over the half way point. on to lickety
my mam irons dishclothes, pants, knickers and socks!!
ironing socks??!!
Hmmm...Mom loves ironing. I always wondered if there was anyone who liked that chore. Now I know.
yep...sad i know!!
I don't do it, but I will accept ironing socks, as they show. Underwear is another story. Anyone who irons underwear is fixated.
when i buy socks for our family,i buy big value packs of white socks,100 pair at a time,that way there is always a match
actually, she hates it molly!lol
She just said it was her favorite part of housework.
good idea crossy!!
I hardly ever iron anymore..I cheat and put the garmet in the dryer along with a damp cloth and turn it on..it takes the wrinkles out
Cross, your whole clan wears white socks all the time?
i roll the into balls and fling them into each room and i am done
the mrs has special fuzzy tennis socks for the winter
i don't have a dryer but i don't iron alot either.i have weak wrists and have to wear straps and have arthritis in my fingers so find it difficult. i iron as we need
but yea,100 pair of white socks at a time,10 pair for 3 dollars,just toss them as holes appear and odd ones do not matter
hubby normally does it when he's home.he's a guden!
the mrs does not wear socks in the summer at all
i hate anyhting on my feet.if i could go bare feet all year round i would
once it gets below -10 here we have to cave in lillian;)
i suppose you do crossy!!
if i lived in one of those warm euro places,i would wear nothing but those nice leather sandals they make for men:)
mmmmm, a lovely smell coming from my oven! trying a new dish!
oh, the jesus sandals??
ahh..whats cookin?
lol crossy sitting here sweltering - awfully humid - no shoes and def no socks
yup the jesus sandals lol
pork with celeriac
poor ursh over there sweltering and i have not seen the grass in 3 months lol
i think it's sad when men wear white socks with them crossy...you'll be ok as you have loads of them!! lol
sounds nice ursh
we only wear socks with them when we are having an ugly feet day
lol crossy
we do not have the option of painting them up nice like da ladies lol
there is NEVER a good reason to wear socks with sandals - wow - lol
why not crossy??
you know down here they are snowbirds when they do that
fashion faux pas... truly
i've seen men wear varnish on toes and fingernails.
really? i have seened buffed nails, but not varnish on straight men
lol,i had to wear them for a while in the fall once..with socks,had a nasty contageous foot fungus and the only way to cure it was with px spray on crap
rx*
especially when they have shorts on and tehn white socks half up their legs and sandals....definitely a no no!!
well,i could slap 3 coats of marine varnish on them maybe....
LOL lill... not sexy enough for ya?
no kje, definitely kills the passion!! lol
that stuff is bulletproof lol
luckily enough my hubby doesn't wear sandals, he just goes barefoot in trainers
Just popped back in, right on time for toe-talk
sadly,it is but a dream,i work with chemicals,hydrocarbons,petrolleum and cannot be dancing around in sandals
my dad does tho...sad!i always wheel away from him, pretending he's not with me!!lol
and waring a flat cap with shorts is not good either or the blooming beanies...you can always tell the english on holiday!!
What's with these monster me words. The last 7 me's are avoiding my gaze.
shame crossy
thankfully my dad has foot fashion sense... not styling, but at least not flashing the white sock thing... or dress socks with tennies

Bye, cos.
bfn cos
Oh shoot. I was going to ask Cos if he had 56 shots last night.
im still here
Well did you? : P
i had a lot of shots! i was wrong.. it was not a free shot every touchdown.. it was a free shot every point (so 7 free shots per touchdown)
i didnt spend any money lol it was fun.
That's why I asked if you had 56 shots, since it was 56 total points. I sort of figured that if you did, you would be in the hospital.
they were weak shots though
i didnt have all 56.. i cut myself off at like 15
the owner is a friend of mine so i got free beer and wings as well lol
so who won in the end?i was told to suppoert the packers!
packers won :(

yaa for zooz!
wtg zoozz!!
wow Zooz, wtg and what a fancy design you have
bye cos
You backed the right team Lilliann, the Packers won.
I watched the superbowl game last night..and i must admit..i had no idea what was going on..without sounding to rude..as i did not understand the rules..lol
and hi again everyone, will be in and out all day today
That's funny to me. I think football is a lot easier to understand than rugby.
Hello, flosey :-)
same here zooz.people here were explaining the rules and i still didn't understand what was going on!rugby union better!
I do not know the rules to that game either..LOL
i should have had a bet eh molly! :)
lol zooz.it's alot easier to understand
As you can tell i am not football fanatic.
Not much to win, betting on the Superbowl. Unless your into serious, multi-level gambling.
hi flosey
hi lil - hope you're feeling better today
i do the national lottery and that is it molly
Flosey is doing her Stid impersonation. In and out, in and out. : )
lol, started marmalade yesterday, should finish it today
ii am a bit thanks flosey :)
although, no harm done if it waits 'til tomorrow
Hi again!
glad to hear lil
what kind, flos?
Ok feels like i have been here all day..must go and eat..take care, All :-)
ooh, mamrmalade, i can't remember the last time i had that. my nan use to make lovely homemade marmalade flosey. i haven't got the patience!
the spanish oranges kj, name escapes me at the moment
Seville?
bye zooz, enjoy your meal
clementines?
hi car
Seville - have to think of the opera
mmmmm - nice
mail me some! ; )
Seville is the bitter orange, makes the best (IMHO) marmalade
how is your cute neighbor, flos?
would love to kj - do you know we can't do that?
no longer there kj, moved on and really quite happy about that
he was making himself a bit too comfortable here
LOL
sounded like it! kind of a moocher
I tried sending tea to friend in CA but could only send it through the company
? they wouldn't let you mail tea?
no, no food items
guess it's too possible to send illegal stuff
never heard of that... I mail food overseas quite a bit... canadian thing or US thing? people mail me tea from france
I believe it's US
oh, that is strange
this was probably about 5 years ago
musy be i sent tea to my brother in CR and he sends me coffee
well... you know you canadians and your pot... can't have you mailing tea around the US!
lol kje!
well.pot is easy,we can mail that all over the place:))
yes, and BC is a bad one for that
when daughter came back from Jamaica, a bag of coffee was slashed at the border
I thought y'all Canadians ran your pot in underground tunnels across the border.
no, I have friends in europe that mail me food... it sounds odd - maybe whoever you were dealing with didn't want to complete the paperwork
but i don't know why you can't send tea as they have sniffer dogs so if any drugs they would pick them up
that is annoying flosey
yes... sounds funny
i suspect a nare-do-well clerk
how do you spell that?
no, wasn't that kj, our postal clerk here is well known to all, and very obliging
i can understand meat products
I think at the time she showed me the rule
ne'er
there are rules about live plants/fruits/veggies to some restricted growing regions, and no unpasteurized cheeses... but never heard anything about coffee or tea
thanks floss
i like watching the customs programmes in australia and new zealand and the chinese take loads of dead dried animals, when they are told not too, and end up having it all taken away and having to pay a fine!
I knew it looked funny but nothing i tried looked right!
perhaps rule has been changed - my friend was Canadian, living in CA and missed Red Rose tea (just a plain tea) apparently the RR tea in US was different
well, having smuggled cheese back to the US from france, I prob should not comment on that lill
May I please have the stats for the middle column, lower N?
my hubby has driven japanese and chinese visitors over here in coaches and they bring suitcases full of food, but they seem to get away with bringing it here.they seem to think they will starve here!!
this is why i cannot move to the states,i would never get good bacon;(
we can bring meat and cheese from france here and vise a versa.well i've always gotten away with it
it is a deal breaker right there
ah yes, when mom was in Nevada I visited her every year and took her peameal bacon which she missed
grayed that re making ba7!
was the thing my brother missed the most flosey

If anyones interested.. all the superbowl commercials can be seen here http://www.youtube.com/user/adblitz?fe ature=ticker
i haven't looked them up, but they look like the describe hispanic culture
i didn't like many this year... mostly rude, crude, or smart alec... not watching TV much at all, then sitting through several hours of superbowl with commercials makes me remember why I do not watch tv much
i watch very little tv of late.it has ti be a good movie or a interesting docc on discovery or history channel
i didn't watch the game either. caught a few commercials when hubz hollered to check one out. i wasn't impressed
all names for mixed race offspring... never heard of these
are those the impossible me,s that i cannot find?
i did like the one with roseanne barr
now the game itself was fun... good playing by the packers and enjoyed watching pitt screw up over and over again - they handed that game away
the last ro 4/4 plz
yes cross.... just start monkeying stupid words that sound slightly hispanic
down to 2 now
all similar sounding Cross - just play around with variations on the end - including hih score letter

that's gang
Hello, Jilli :-)
typoing already!
great clues, people -- thks
please keep 'em coming! 241 left here.
I have finished if you need any clues..although i am not very good as you can tell..lol
you do just fine zooz
like the way your icon background is black when small but white when you click on it, Jilli :-)
i have been at it all evening and i've still got 84 to find - its not doing anything fopr me today
zooz, that's because it's a .gif
You can do it, Kazzer.
oh, didn't know that jilli
Oh i see.
can someone clue the first AR 7/28?
add alternate spelling of evening Helen
ar + vowel + opp to day.
then plural for the AR8/40
thanks!
I'm still working on those me variations -- the last me7/32, the two me9s, and the 8/45
the other ar7/28 is ar + vowel and what we smell with.
french my plural + fork part - change last vowel
not to mention the other 234 words (or unwords as the case probably is)
the 9 and the 8 are variant plurals
the scary things is that i have 84 words left to find and they are all either an r, s or t - eek
the me9 is the same as the me7 before it just add a vowel + plural
there are a LOT of s words
going out for a bit of a walk, clear the cobwebs!!
i still have 47 ss to find
bbl
last se 8, please?
34 here
Take care, Flosey.
ttfn flosey -- lovely sunny day today
did you get them jill?
got the me9/90 but the others are being uncooperative
se + not fresh + metal + vowel
then plural for the SE9/54
anyone got the ras?
hi all
back again
ty zoom
not fresh? and hello
hi doren
hi jmc
REAALLY not fresh dorens
good clue zooz
ra 5 not walk + double vowel
then plural
like,,,, putrid?
just clued the ones before that 4:42
yes
yes
decompose, dorens
ahah.. think i get it.. thanks
thanks zooz
yw :-)
right... and i had actually monkeyed it earlier. thanks though
lol
jill: me 7/32: french my + fork part with last vowel changed. Then variant plurals for the 9 and 8
too many words to keep track
nan, I know -- variant plurals but I'm not finding them -- what I try is wrong every time
exactly. and i have no memory... what i did during lunch time is out the window
*wonders she ate lunch*
one is a simple plural -- the other is a plural with a vowel
oh, ty nan -- didn't have that me 7/32 of course
-- just like the 9/90
at my computer... wolfing down food while babbling furiously
Bless you, Dorens..don`t get indigestion.
all right.. time to list.. hopefully that will get me closer
i think if i ever get to 1/2 way i will quit!
285 left
I'm feeling that way too, jmc

hi pini
hi pini
I have a quandry (if anyone is interested in offering ideas)
r's are done.. whew
hi jmc, cyrstalle, ru, lurkers, et al
sure pini what?
sure pin
100 s's ack!@
quandry? whats up?
108 ruru
even more re words
When I got home from work today, there was a sheet of paper at my door announcing a new community garden (open meeting scheduled for 02/26)
coolio
was it planted there?
...the quandry = the garden is across the street from my house, in the open field (church property)...
is the church happy?
...I'd like to be able to go to the meeting with a list of questions as to how it will impact the church, me, and my neighbors; I was told nothing was going to be built in the open field when I bought my house 10yrs ago :/
do they water it with holy water?
I wouldn't want lots of strange people coming and going across the road from me. Does that bother you at all pini
not sure yet, jmc...haven't had a chance to check with them yet.
That's the part that bothers me, crystalle
...and the road in front of me is the ONLY access road where cars will be able to park...*sigh*
then there's the issue of parking, trash control, all the problems people bring
pini, maybe they can have coop people where some kind of badge
WHo is starting the garden? Is the church starting the garden? WHat group is ultimately responsible?
Is it for your neighborhood or the church people?
...I can only imagine what chaos it will cause with 'traffic' and the fact that Koda will probably be incessantly trying to make me aware of all of the activity. :/
you have a right to ask all those questions. you might survey your neighbors and see if anyone's opinions agree with yours and present a united front at this meeting
The church is not the group starting it...
DId they do an Impact report?
Apparently, it's a community garden for the city!
If they did, DR...they never talked with me!
hm
good idea, wild
I'd want to see their plan and what they developed for parking, trash, etc.
I think a community garden sounds like a great idea in theory but in practice I doubt it is a sgood. The ones on tv shows work great but unfortunately real life is not as merry.
how they're going to enforce what hours it's open and available and still respect the neighborhood's privacy
I can just imagine the amount of bored hooligans who would be there at all times up to no good!
I think community gardens can be done well, just not on a relatively small plot in the middle of a quiet neighborhood...there's another field (larger) nearby that might be better suited and have less of an impact on surrounding neighbors....
well good luck with all this pini. I'm sure it was a huge surprise to find out someone was changing the plan
clue for re 8
Thanks for the input...I'm going to go gather a list of questions...back soon
sure
re + places you buy things
Pink, I agree with your concerns. a church near where I teach had one and it did well. however I work near there I don't live there. It was in a large field that backed up to a small neighborhood but wasn't near the houses. I did not know any of the neighbors. I do know a lot of people used it.

hey all. coming in for a few minutes -- got NBT earlier, just trying for halfway today
hi stid
Welcome Stid- just on my way to Jakester to Karate
hey DR! tell the kiddo hello for us! see you later?
yes- I will be back. too far to not finish
cool! I will check in periodically this evening.
how are you doing wild? is that a snowy tree in your icon?
clue for re 9/54 last one
I"m fine. We did have snow last week but not that much. I just put it up for winter
12 more S's
how r things going for you?
LOL good! I am wishing we had more snow -- apparently a high pressure ridge has been sitting in just the wrong place this winter, pushing the weather north, south and east of us... and keeping us from having good snowpack. otherwise, I can't say I really mind the sunny days!
go boo! go cos!
I don't mind snow either, but the problem here is that no one knows what to do with it so the whole place shuts down
we have the same issue, wildcat -- 4 to 6 inches makes people do strange things... more than that and things actually start to shut down.
AHA! EXACTLY halfway! :-D
the funniest part is most of these people moved here from somewhere else, most likely where it does snow regularly
that's just sad...
we're supposed to freeze again this week but it's only going to turn into sleet and ice this time
I prefer snow to sleet...
wouldn't actually mind a nice unexpected several inches tonight to be honest, would love to have another day to work on my paper. I have some ideas (finally) about how to address some issues. *sigh* classes really get in the way of thinking sometimes! LOL
wow. that's big.
hey jes! what's big... LOL I keep thinking about your Holly. *sigh, melt, wish* but Tom is adamant.
clue for the first ro 5/12
the grid is big!
oh. right. yes, big grid.
holly is going to PetSmart Sunday for an adoption event...hopefully someone will take her from there.
did you find that 9 you asked for boo? I need that one too...
yes
*fingers crossed* I hope she finds a loving, warm and lively home, jes!
re plus another word for stress
thanks boo! *thinking*
sounds like another word for stress
*still thinking*
aha!!!! got it!!! *dances around wildly!*
gj stid
the ro 5/12 I have boo (not sure if it's first) is juliet's lover?
there's a plural form too
it worked
penalty box for wildcat and boobear :P
:-D
LOL only if there's wine in there
oh! I see the PB comment... and now the word!!! *puts lovely choclits and fresh pot of tea in PB*
i don't have wine to offer. but i have home made pizza :)
*and a bottle of nice red wine and chilled gewurtztraminer*
mmmmmmmm I'm there
okay, down to 193. I think I will go work on aligning calendars for the family (four people and at least 6 activities/destinations each day).
bye stid tc
Hey stid, you could come over on the excuse of picking up some hamsters to transport to someone who wants them in Corvallis, and just "accidentally" bring Holly home with you :)
Hey stid, you could come over on the excuse of picking up some hamsters to transport to someone who wants them in Corvallis, and just "accidentally" bring Holly home with you :)

oooo how did it go?
oh.. with the guy who was 10 years older.. how was it
read my last post again
did i mention it was a dinner date?
oh jeezes
sorry owl
ouch
what happened
he is nice but pushy nosy and he kept losing his train o fthought
and he forgot it was dinner?
LOLOLOL
hopefully you had a nice glass of wine
every time i picked up a knife and fork he asked me another question
because he asn't eating, he was just staring
that is because you are so lovely
that doesn't sound too good
heh. it's because he's so into you, TO :D
(and maybe nearsighted)
thank you, mars and venus! :D
sounds like a stalker
lol
clue for the first se 5/10
fishing net boo
well, look: he's 70 , has retired three times, and keeps talking about his accomplishments from 30 years ago. Kill me if i retire and do that. just shoot me.
like the french river in paris
*loads the gun*
have no idea
ahem
areyou IMPLING i have no life?
waht do all those me7s 8s and 9s relate to?
what is this retire thing? i'm just gonna fall over dead in the surgery one day.
lol no but i believe in being prepared
TO you have never been a boring dinner companion with me
and ru, you KNOW i still can't drink. which seemed to take him aback hen i declined
Oh.. sorry I forgot TO..
maybe you should wait to date until you can drink again
:P
*pokes TO*
lots of people don't drink on dates
i drink without a date
take Charlie Sheen for example
LOL JE i like your thought process
LOL
CHAARLIE SHEEN!
*turns purple laughing*
*chuckles*
ah never can be blue for long here
seriously: he liked me a lot so he said, and he kept asking "I'm not making you nervous"; but he ordered an appetizer then said he was on a diet and so bascially was talking a mile a minute asking me questions.
sounds like he's self-absorbed to me TO.. move on
sounds like he was nervous
it was kind of fun at the end, i as so obviously putting my fork down every time he did. i got in 1/4 of the salad and one bite of meat.
i would have concentrated on the meat
i as trying to see if he would notice.
salad is cheap
was

whoo hooo wild!

yay wildcat!
well he has been married twice

hi pini

Well, it's not that I'm siding against it...but 1 of 2 neighbors (that I've spoken with) show the same concerns as me...
someone give me some random clues!
i have a community garden

I am here TO
i am afraid i missed your concerns -- got distracted

i don't think you're being mean to not date someone that you don't want to date... i'd argue that dating him knowing you didn't want to would be meaner, as it would be leading him on
OH may i tell you the thing that started the night going in the wrong direction?

je, hen a person is dead and his estate passes to his heirs, can someone sue the heirs for an injury claim?
they can sue teh estate not the heirs
that occurred when the person was alive?
the litigant can only claim as much as was in the estate
but they can sue afte the estate passed?
well it depends on the state but in most states the estate publishes the estate and there is a limited amount of time inwhich the person can make a claim
my dad had a fenderbender jan 10 and the nie lady is suing him
insurance said don't worry about it
if they don't claim with in that period and the executor didn't know they were claiming then if the executor distributed the estate the heirs are safe but the bond of teh executor may be tapped
i dare say the insurance co knows
well i am not sure i get it but we are the executors
a lot of states have no fault where each insurance cos take care of their own problems unless someone is clearly horribly wrong
well insurance has to defend against the suit, no?
well just go through the steps of the estate as quickly as possible
we have probated i think it's only 30 days
i ill set a meeting with my attorney to check.
well then if they don't file a claim you are probably alright
HOLY Buckets!! 420 words!! I guess I'm not starting THIS grid! HI people!
it is worth the $
hi nef
i should give the disclaimer i am not licensed in NJ or PA and nothing that i have said creates an attorney client relationship

bon soir! (au revoir, jmc) hey all!
oh.my.goodness. did you know that Land O' Lakes makes "fat free half and half"? what the crap?
yuck. what would be the use?
May I please have a clue for si6-18? Thanks
i have no idea. turns out it's skim milk + corn syrup.
S + to put a body in the tomb i****
clue for te 7
ah, replacing fat with sugar. great idea (NOT)
and can't POSSIBLY cook right
the only te 7 I have is the one that is like the ST that landed you and jes in the PB earlier...
which is what half and half is FOR
Thanks much, stidmama.
i was in the penalty box?
oh no -- it was wildcat, sorry jes (you two look so much alike...)
dangit. what word did i use? cuz i doubt i have it in the grid....
ah, i see
to be overwhelmed, we say you are st****ed out...
ah, that one
remember back to vet school days, or the first few weeks of owning a business?
*wicked mama grin*
OH! jes! I wanted to tell you that a friend of mine just got accepted to WSU's veterinary school! I am so happy for him.
hahahahahaha. nope. traumatic repression.
tell him to run away now, while he still has the chance! :P
oh, I think he can do it -- right now apparently it's lambing season at the clinic where he works and it's not going so well for some of the ewes.
his facebook uses the term "prolapse" a lot *sad mama look*
heh. yeah, tis the season. if i've got to pick a species for dystocias though, it's all about goats.
sheepies are a close second... LOTS easier to handle than cattle or horses
I can only imagine... (really, no plans to attend livestock birth support classes any time soon)
I only know how it felt to be birthing a baby with shoulder dystocia... *shudder*
clue for the last te 7
I only have the one, boo. sorry
what kills me, every year, is the WOMEN who can't seem to grasp that an animal having trouble giving birth is BAD and should be taken to a vet. you'd think they'd have some sympathy, even if they've never been through labor themselves...
ah, the key word there jes... is THINK. also I don't believe our society encourages empathy any more. *sad mama look*
Hi, all! Just stopping by - no hope of finishing, or even getting 1/2 way...
hey sue. I got NBT at about 150 words... *encouraging look*
now just goofing off for a few minutes before doing a bit more school-related work.
...stressful day, taught 3 classes, then dealing with dad and stepmom on whether they should move to assisted living :-/
stid!!!
hey, stid, I'd be NBT except for the n just below the center...
hey mcurl!
I am trying to remember which N that was sue, hold on...
oh yes. ne 4/4 fancy flashing lights from the 30s-60s
think retro diner look...
glad to hear you are goofing off! I just walked in the door from a girls basketball game....I'll never finish this!
ah, a noble gas! got it, now NBT. I should sleep well.
:-D if I had said that you'd have got it right away! LOL
how did the game go?
our girls won which put them in the district tournament so we play again on Friday
that's nice for the girls... of course that means a longer season.
pb for stid in 10:20 pm comment
yes, this is true but not much longer!
I know when my boys found out they were going to state for speech events I was slightly disappointed. I thought my days waiting for them to be picked up after practice might be over already!
thanks for the RE 5 jes! *tramps into PB and takes the gewurtraminer and apple pie along*
ah yes, extended "seasons" for parents are not always a blessing!
brb phone
back. a girl for the kidderoo... *sigh*
*snags a piece of the apple pie while stid's on the phone*
not that I mind them doing well, you know! LOL
jes! *sigh* you could at least get a plate and a napkin...
re9 last one please? I have 35 words to go
napkin? i'll just lick my fingers. less wasteful.
besides, don't you have a house elf to make you as many pies as you wish?
hey DR!
hi there
clue for the first te 5/10 , 6/18 combo (?) please
watching CHUCK, doing math homework and babble
hey teach!
isn't that the man singer with the high voice, teach?
or is there one before that?
last re9 = hold back (rhymes with penalty after school)
hi all
thnx - needed the one with the high voice
hey pini!!! pretty icon.
Hi Pini!
actually pini's bro is a te5!
Hi, pini!
hi stid (thx), DR, wv, et al
no, he doesn't make pie because he doesn't like pie crust
ty !
he sure is, stid! * proud big sis grin *
he did make me homemade graham crackers recently though, which were stellar.
oh. apple crisp? my mother in law uses oats (oatmeal ground a little in the blender) and lemon juice and cinnamon and butter for a topping on apple crisp
mmmm. he's a keeper, jes!
I make apple crisp with a white cake mix...
sue, I just realized what a cute face your critter icon has! LOL
she's my dog, se4 - a labradoodle rescue that we've had for about 1.5 years now
she's lovely, sue. I am glad you rescued her!
me too - she
she
*stage whisper* HEY JES!!! do you think labradoodles need beagle-mix companions?
(ok, I'm having trouble with my return key being too close to the apostrophe)
anyway she's a real sweetheart!
of COURSE they do, stid!
:-D I am sure she is. At least, the ones I have met have been lovely. And labs as a rule are my heart-companions.
*grins conspiratorially at jes*
Well, you never know with a rescue, sometimes they can be a bit traumatized (like my psycho cat). But we were really lucky with her.
well, I hate to leave... but my eyes are giving me "the signal" so I think I ought to head out for the night.

'night, stid!

Thanks!
how's it going?
Got a headache!
uh oh...sorry to hear...
hope it goes away soon!!! :)
So I think I've recovered from today's grid. I'm kind of ready for the next one :)
I'm game for something a tad bit smaller...
Haha! This should last me a month. :P
haha...Cosdem, I love your icon.
wb silver
it has usually flipped by now my time I think
thought you were here earlier...asked how long you've been playing the grid...
another 9 minutes, cyrstalle
I was hoping for a new grid to distract me from my cleaning
rest for 9 minutes and you'll be on an official break! :)
oh, sorry! I'm here and there - trying to read a course book but failing miserably :)
but I guess I better go clean for another 9 mins so I can justify sitting on my butt for rest of afternoon babbling
see u soon
no worries...there are any number of us who 'attempt' to multi-task ;)
down to 7 mins crystalle! :)
fireworks! Yay! I did not think I'd make it!
wtg knutmeg ;)
just in time, too
Yes, yay!
wtg knut
3 2 1 ...
