Hooray for flosey!
and now I can concentrate on my bridge game tomorrow - which I cannot cancel this time!
I have 35 left -- will leave them for tmw
You'll have fun, flosey!
oh yes, with Vonnie and Ruth!
LOL!!! (I had to try and get phone..didn't make it in time)
that's a late game?!?/
ah, sorry m9, you can blame me for that
does the number show on your phone?
oh... tomorrow!
we have to have all games finished by March 15
no.. I think it was Tim.. he said earlier tonight that he only had one bar left on his phone.
and we have our last game Thursday
I think it died before I got there..
which is a little worrisome.. he said the road was gonna be bad on the way home..
ah, hope it wasn't anything urgent
a bar on a phone?
oh, good luck then
so that means you can't call him back?
yes. I can't
well, good luck Time
what's a bar on a phone?
sorry **Tim
yes. now I'll be on ***s and etuis until I see him.
the battery charge jilli
oh, thks -- now I see
I don't use my mobile much
I don't either but the girls get annoyed with me if I don't have it on while I'm enroute to Vancouver
yes. I wish Tim had his!
I wonder if my GPS charging cable (for the cigarette lighter) would work on my phone
worth a try, jilli
maybe some day if I need it, lol!
it annoys me that you have to get a new charger when you have to get a new phone
hmmm
hmmm. most phones have propietory chargers though... not just run of the mill holes.
hmmm. most phones have propietory chargers though... not just run of the mill holes.
oops
ok, I'm off to bed, goodnight all, and hope Tim gets home safely, m9
nite flosey. thanks
I'm off too -- had a hairy drive here last Friday night -- pouring rain, fog patches, pitch dark, winding, hilly roads with hidden curves. Made it, though. I'm sure Tim will too.
thanks jilli
Goodnight and good luck...*poof*

HI Everyon
hi herin
HI LIli were you been
does anyone have a list as my expert is working again!!
errr
in bed most of the time lately herin. hows your job going?
*isn't
O Lili hope you are well
There is a printable version of the list
http://tinyurl.com/yfsoeph
here
No Expert is working
just normal probs and got over flu and now got a cold!i can't seem to get rid of it!
there was quite a few of us yesterday who couldn't get it
it says the url you have requested could not be found(404)
I have expert working and my tiny worked yesterday
thanks for that herin
Maybe a cookie problem
if it had just been me then i would have said maybe but too many of us were affected
try this lilann http://r46.me/BabbleClues.html
Interesting. it worked when I posted the tinyurl
and if mines not working again today then theres probably is the same again too
As I said interesting. Let me see if it is an IE issue
ty nurse
yw lili
Also Internet Explora is working for me
I had the same problem yesterday (with both firefox & IE)- if you Google lickety and get to the list from there, it seems to work fine (including if you bookmark it afterwards).
is your's ok today then city?
otto
Aw dinglebats... sorry.
ty
Hi City and nurse
Yes, Lillian, once I'd bookmarked it from Google, it came up fine today. And hi :)
don't forget the pl :)
*snort* thanks :)
Thanks
Saves me thinking
I could do with a break from that, too *brainhurt*
how do i bookmark it nurse? i'm not technically minded?
sorry, meant city
Lil is it your birthday
not until june herin. why?
Got you confused with someone else
I think in IE it is called 'favourites' these days. While you are on Lickety's page, just click at the top where it says 'favourites', thn 'add to favourites'
There was a 12pound baby born today
thanks city
It should appear in the list on the left hand side. If your favourite list is not showing, go to 'view', also at the top, then 'explorer bar'' and pick 'favourites'.
I guess you didn't need the second chapter of that, sorry :)
no, it hasn't shown up
ah... try the rambling second half, Lillian :)
it's added to favourites but stiill won't appear on the left hand side
I don't use IE that thing is evil
*grumbles* .. sorry, Lillian, IE isn't my thing, I only ever open it when I can't get a site on Firefox.
i'll just have to keep clicking on it and looking.thanks for your help city
yw; sorry it wasn't completely useful!
not your fault, but it was very helpful.i've learnt something new anyway! :)
Sorry I don't use IE
np herin
12llb baby eh!! i thought having a 6lb 40z baby was big enough!!
UM my friend was 13pound
struth! i hope that wasn'#t a natural labour!
good morning everybody
HI Ruby
hi ruby.how are you hin
Yes it was Lil
omg.i bet her mam was walking around like a cowboy for a while!lol
She had 4 kids
They are all big kids. Any kid in their family that is 10pounds or less is a light weight
was that her first one?
my friend was the same. she had 4 boys and all where over 10ibs
Over 10pounds
aaaargh, those are very big babies! I was a fat 8 1/2 lbs, plenty for my tiny mother! With babies that big I would suspect incipient diabetes in the mother.
Hi Ruby
My friend just had hers at 7pounds and she was giganormous
apparently my mam could wear her size 8 clothes all the way through mine and my brother's pregnancy
saying, that my brother was prem and i just missed the prem unit with my weight
I was a 5pounder
but tall, I'll bet
i was just over 5lbs
I think i was about 51cm or something
i'm not tall ruby, only 5ft 2 and a half, and that half is important! lol
nor Lilli
and ,my mam was only 5ft 2, she's shrunk to 4ft 8 now!
I'm shrinking, too, lilliann
morgan was 61cm
It's very depressing as I used to be 5'1", now certainly not 5'! :(
you do with age don't you ruby
ahh, but nice things come in small packages ruby :)
so they say! hahah
How is the family Lili
but alo tall packages, like herin!
Awww
I am thinking witches socks tomorrow
they are fine thanks herin. hubby in bed still has he came home early hours this morning after being away for a couple of weeks.his business is doing well and morgan is good.i'm a proud mam at the moment as she got into one of the hardest local schools to get into
witches socks??
for Lent?
very true ruby
Red strippy socks
witches socks?
in my "hippie" days, I used to wear red and black striped stockings with platform shoes and hot pants! OMG!
for september that is
Red strippy socks like you see on the Witch in Wizard
sounds groovy ruby!! lol
it's hard to imagine
I wore hot pants
for the Wiz of Oz, herin, "I'm melting!"
i have some long purple and black stripe socks. iwear them under jeans to keep my thighs warm when i'm out in the cold
I have black and purple tights. Just not sure if it is work appropriate
it all depends on the accessories, herin, and your sense of self-confidence! hahah
how is the job going herin.are you enjoying it?
Well I don';t want to get into trouble.
Job I am likely
oh good
have to order some beads.brb
my Ruby has an ear problem and when we went to a new vet yesterday, he actually gave her kisses and said she was the nices, pretties chow chow he'd ever seen. I felt like a proud mama
O poor thing. We have to take the cat to the vet to his shots
she was shaking her head and seemed deaf so I looked in her ear and found a black tumor the size of a small snail!
she also has two different ear infections
but he said she'll be fine
O poor thing
I'm lucky she let me mess with her ear, but she is such a sweet dog
husband back! see you later
hope she'll be better soon ruby.bfn
We just got 7 cheese pizza
7? that's alot of cheese!
yep
it has a bechimel base
saying that i could eat a slice of that and it's breakfast time! i think i'll have to have a slice of toast instead
oh ok
it is awesome
we've got roast chicken for tea later.all veg is prepared apart from the swede as i have to get hubby to chop that as it's too hard for my fingers
My Cat is interested in our food
it'll be the cheese, both of mine love cheese
No it was the chicken
my next door neighbours invited us around for pancakes last night but as i wasn't feeling well, morgan went round and helped cook.he made savoury mince with rich tomato sauce with cheese on top, well, the cats were trying to jump all over me for some as they sent some round for me. which was very nice of them
That was nice of them
they did pancakes for us last year too.they do it more for the bairn but they are nice
aww. Is this the grandparent types?
yes
their 2 grand daughters live down south.they are good to morgan
that is great

lower right corner
morning FM
Hello, FM.
hi FM
Whats the verdict on todays grid?
thank you Haz
nbt and nbs
It's a good one, FM.
oh goodie
Hi FM and HAZ
I've put herins link to lickety in my profile for those of us still having issues accessing it.
Evening herin :)
Hello, herin and everyone.
Sunny morning here, 2 days in a row!
Spring is on its way. Our garden birds are eating us out of house and home.
I thought it was bad during the snow but they seem to be on another feeding frenzy.
LOL I know the feeling.
WOW I just became a multi millionaire. All I need to do is send money to someone overseas and send them my bank details.
Ha ha herin, ain't those emails great!
Husband is rather miffed that they're STILL ignoring his nesting box, yet insist on treating us like a drive-through takeaway.
Yep. Complete with typos
Mum put a nesting bux up 2 years ago and is still waiting for occupants.
going back to bed,
We're not the only ones, in that case. I suppose it didn't come with a cast iron guarantee or anything but you'd think birds would look at it kindly.
Hope you get some rest, peri.
Bye peri.
bye peri
It does depend very much on the size of the box and the position too.
Choosy wee things.
What sort of birds?
... and don't start me on how picky they can be if the seeds feeder is left out overnight and they get a bit damp - I get glared at and they refuse to eat the damn things.
We should go on strike, FM.
lol
Bird boxes are usuall good for the tit family
Yes, that's what he was hoping since we have plenty of blue tits around but no movement so far.
Oh, two more parcels have arrived, must delve in.
AS to the birds that visit the garden: Blue tits, back birds, throshes, sparrows (house and tree), ring doves, robins and occasionally a sparrow hawk.
*thorshes? I meant thrushes of course!
And we've got greenfinches and chaffinches as well.
oh how lovely
Polystyrene chips flying....
More ebay bargains HAz?
Yes, two more sets of the vintage milk jugs and sugar bowls. They're gathering up nicely.
Excellent!
I'm using them for flower centrepieces for daughter's wedding in August. Some are more expensive than others but they're still brilliant value and should look good.
I love the idea and am sure it will look lovely.
When are you going to forray forth to find the Mother of the Bride outift?
I maintained steadfastly that I wasn't going to go down a themed route, and yet here I am hunting china and lace doilies....
It's pencilled in for Saturday 19th March. I don't know whether to dread it or look forward to it.
Oh look forward to it Haz and enjoy the shopping experience (did I really say that)?
I'll try. I just don't want anything that makes me look like a wannabe senior bridesmaid and that seems to be the look on offer.
Im sure you will find something eminently suitable and you have plenty of time to shop around. Will you be hatted?
It could be worse you could have the hideous frou dress option.
I'll probably aim for a hat though not too big and failing that a fascinator.
lol good point herin :)
Ah a facinator would work well with your stature and be good for the photo call etc.
I just can't get the coffee stain out of my new top
I just don't want to look silly.
you won't do dear, honestly!
At least I have plenty of forthright female opinion in the family. They'll not be afraid to tell the truth.
Any help on set coffee stains?
If it's set, it's a problem.
'frid not herin, sorry :(
What's the material?
:( DOn't say that Haz. It is rayon stretch fake stuff
I just lobbed it into the washing machine on warm not thinking it wouldn't come out
You might have been better to soak it first but once it's been through a wash it's not very easy to get things shifted.
It is my favourite top too and it is new
Time for me to get on with the day for a while. Lots to do. Thanks for the chat - stilll have jet to enter a word in the grid! Happy Babbling.
Have fun FM
Bye, FM.
Would Vinegar bleach the fabric?
It looks like dilute white vinegar might help, herin.
Dilute white vinegar in water, use a white cloth to dab on. I don't know if it'll work once the stain is set, unfortunately.
I have tried everything. I am a lot peeved about the fact the thing didn't clear
I know, it's maddening.
Well the laundry powder was meant to clear it
The other thought I had was using the actual dish washing stuff
Could you try something like Fairy Liquid? It's gentle enough to cope with fabrics but good at removing stains.
I wouldn't use the stuff for dishwasher machines, it might be too abrasive.
I was thinking that. Not the dishwashing stuff that lives in the dish washer
No, the liquid stuff might work but no guarantees. Is the stain very noticeable?
Morning ladies.....while its quiet in here, can one of you please help me fix my clues problems?
Not really. Lucky flab hides
it
Hi Flask
Hello, Flask. Getting a 404 error?
I have no idea why you guys have issues with the clues
http://r46.me/BabbleClues.html
Yes Haz...I am,
so am i flask
but what do I do with that link???
hi hin :)
Flask, try the web address herin has given below. Or, if I e-mail it to you, just click on the link.
Hi Lilliann
That is the clues for babble
i googled lickety and then bookmarked it and apparently it should have gone onto the left handside of the grid, but it didn't so i have it on my bottom tool bar and keep clicking on it
I've e-mailed it to you. CLick on the link and it brings up the list in another window.
I have no idea why you guys have a busted ass thing
sprite had the same thing yesterday herin as well as lot of others.it's a pain!
I don't know why that is weird. Do you know if IE has updated lately?
don't know herin
No idea
I use google chrome but IE for explorier
Taking a quick break.
thanks for the hints
seas
ty pat, didn't have that one yet :)
So very sorry all of you. I was messing with refresh and everything else I could think of in the hope that I would bump into lickety. It's how I learn my best computing tricks. I could do with a quiet spell in the PB if one of you would be kind enough to sentence me please.
pb now pat!! lol
Cheers lill..
i can't kick start lickety either!! :(
yw
Well that stain came out THANK YOU
Excellent!
What did you use?
Dishwashing liquid the known machine variety
That's good to know for future reference.
opps the non even
I used the cheap Aldi type
Haz when I click on the link you sent, what do I do then??
If it brings up Lickety's clues, either minimise it or shrink it to go to one side of your screen and then toggle back and forward as you need it.
Have to baby sit a shirt then I can see if it actually works
Follow the instructions on Lickety's page for bulk-add/grab and then it's a case of filling in the blanks as you get more words.
oh right!....So I have to do it everyday?...Am I right?
Yes, I think so. Hopefully Lickety will work out what's happening and do something so that expert will work completely again for those of us who are having problems.
In the meantime, it's just slightly more trouble but much better than no list at all!
Okay, I'd better be off and get something done. Enjoy the grid!
Oh yes I do appreciate that, I was just checking that I was doing the right thing (for a change)..lol
thanks for help!
No problem, Flask, have a good day.
*gone*
hi, all. herin...I nrver open IE if I can help it. I use the Babble Expert, and have been getting 404 errors since yesterday.
hi angel

I have to leave in a few for work and the mid P keeps stealing my words
Hi Sue. ANgel I have List working fine for me
do tell herin
pe4/6 and pe5/14 sue
I have no idea how but mine works
Lickety works for me now too.
I was thinking that if there was an update done that may have caused issues
not for me, but I did get the P's, ty herin
might bookmark this link: http://r46.me/BabbleClues.html
Have to refresh to the current grid.
that's not the link when you click on the bottom
It works for me.
that works for me babble, ty
I ahve no idea why
gotta go
bbl, for sure!!
hi all
Sue, what link are you getting when you click on the bottom? That may be the problem. Some people may be getting a broken link, which would lead to a 404 message.
hi carlee
Oh well, missed Sue. Morning Carlee. Morning all.
bfn sue
hey molls :)
Lillian, your mushy friends are in the grid. : P
mushy friends!!!pffft!!

meows.i'm deaf and i can hear him!he has a horrible whiney meow!!
O at least you don't get a slap
Lili has your hearing issue gotten worse?
is this grid very nice?....cus i am finding it a bit...stingy
O poor kitties
pepsi our other cat paws you in the face and jumps around the bed and runs around the room like a thing possesses!
i'm not enjoying carlee!
ok..cus i have found 11 words
I am using the list
i think it's about the same herin.with menieres your hearing goes up and down
Ok just was hoping it wasn't worse
I'm whispering: If we lose Babble for a while, can any of you suggest anything similar as a back up?
i should wear 2 hearing aids but then i hate all the noise!lol so i just lipread!
You could try Wordsplay Patxxx
i go on pogo games and play word games there pat
I sort of lipread. It drives people mental when you have your music on loud and know what they are saying
aye, but you also know if they are talking about you! :)
Specially when people whisper and they are on the other side of the filling cabinet and I hear them. Damn 'wolf' hearing
Tvm lyn
Good day to all.
Scrabblerrrrrrrrrrrr
morning scrabs
hi scrabs
Hello Scrabs, nice to see you
Trying to gain consciousness here.
And ty lill. I am scared of hexing Babble if I shout out loud. How pathetic is that but I do this game every day and love it and you lot. It's educational, annoying, makes you forget important worries. I don't have to chase little madmen round a game, which would do my head in. It requires come brainpower, which is prob why I don't finish always.
Sapien is my phantom
know what u mean scrabs...i woke up early to the sound of m y bins bouncing in the wind
you forget to say very addictive pat!! :)
I took Benadryl (antihistamine) before bed, to knock me out all night, and I am still somewhat sedated.
You've been playing for 6 years Pat - I think you can stop whispering now. It is not going anywhere (fingers crossed)
and the cat that was sleeping beside me jumping out of her skin and digging claws in as she flew to look out front window
ouch carlee!!
Are you OK Scrabs
( am thinking pab means when dr god updates to new version it may be down for a few days )
Oh, yes, Lynxxx! I am not a morning person so it takes me a lot of time to get my brain into full gear.
Oh - is there news on that then?
being on call must really suck for you scrabs..am sorry...am same way...my one eye takes longer to open even...oh..scrabs..question for you
DrG doesn't seem to have 'spoken' since November on the FB page
good afternoon all
Hello Sprite!
hi sprite.have you got your list back today?
I was on call Monday night, then spent yesterday with Mary's kids, culminating with their bath time, and I saw the dentist in the morning. I have to see an oral surgeon in 2 wks and probably need a chronically troubled molar yanked---> then implant...lots of $ and pain!
Hi Sprite
no, still the 404 alert, alas
same here
ouch Scrabs
sorry to hear that scrabs, on both counts!
:( am sorry scrabs
double jeapardy :( Poor Scrabs.
but good news on the kidlets :)
hi all
hi scoot
Being on call DOES suck. Interruptions, most not emergencies. Being awoke during the night...
peas
good morning friends -- scrabbler, so sorry to read your news! do NOT like!
hi scoot
hi Scoot
Triffles :) *hugs*
morning Trif
hi trif
I am more worried about the $! Probably $3000 when all is done.
Hi Trif! How are you and the kids?
omg!! that's ridiculous!
dear God that is an awful lot of money
scrabs, my mom used to hate being on call too - lots of turkeys calling that weren't even her patients, always with some story of how they "dropped" their rx for narcotic pain killers down the drain, and could they have 90 more (no) or my fave -- the woman who called on a sunday, with an ailment of some sort, and then threw in "and while I have you on the phone, could I schedule my mammogram?"
Lil: extraction, implant, crown, "abutment" procedure to adjacent tooth, lots of appointments...
lollllll that is truly shameless
Yes, Trif, so may people are thoughtless and disrespectful.
POunce on Trifs
my daughter might have to have bridges and implants, as she has 3 too many teeth and 2 completely missing but i'm hoping it'll be on the nhs.we are waiting for a dental hospital appointment
the best part was my mom was standing in her bathing suit at the beach at the time!
sapo
WOW Peoples I missed
I read 'birthday suit'
me too!
Soz put me back in the PB. It's not even the word i meant to type!
hi lady
hmmm - not that kind of beach lynxxx, but the visual is excellent!
so did i lynxxx...
POUNCE herin!
hi Pat :)
It's possible that my med insurance will cover the extraction as the bone around the tooth is infected.
oh..likely then yes scrabs...
i hope it does scrabs
Silly Scrabs you need ot take care of yourself
I am so useless at switching between grid and chat that I usually stick to just the game cos I'm so embarrassed.
It has been a problem tooth for many yrs.
Sprite, HI!
don't be pat.we all do it :)
Pat, free clues are kind and generous.
I don't think you have to go to the PB if it is not a word, pat
it is no problem, Pat, it is the layout of the site that is to blame. And you are missing out on all the goodies in the PB this way! Please join chat :)
pat just wants to go so she can rest and enjoy goodies there!
It'a quite a good name for those of us who keep messing up!
the only reason I don't mess up all the time is the Babble Expert. Which is now a bit of a problem because every word I enter gives a green flash, lol... and believe me, 90% isn't valid!
need 2 more for nbt
did you find the q's carlee? they are giving me grief today
i have q
i have one
Yep, the Q words elude me too.
that is the letter I need for nbt
a little brown bird often game bird minus last letter
morning, all!
bless you carlee! nbt for moi!
I have a Q word for weird
TY, Kat.
morning uusue
scrabs, sorry to hear about your tooth - hope it all goes well, and that the insurance covers it!
Night all
ty carlee
hi Sue
thanks for the other Q
hi sue
morning all
goodnight dearest herin, and sleep well
nite herin.tc
night lady, sleep tight
scrabs....i have an odd question for u
hi Praise
night herin
hi praise
hi praise
is there a problem with clues or is it just me?
Hi Sue, having the molar extracted will be a physics experiment involving torque, force, etc..
op: not translucent; and extend for two 7s
Hi Praise
more drama with my dad and stepmom, details in my profile
Hi BR!
ah, yes, scrabs, a lot of life is little physics problems :-)
Hello
hi BabbleRabble :) How's the hammock doing in keeping you warm and out of the snow today?
TY for 3 op words, BR
Hi Babblers, stumped at 27, seeking list.. ?? got the 404 error message again, sigh
What's the question, kat?
snowing
Hello Professor Merganser
try here: http://r46.me/BabbleClues.html
hi Aloy, the list is there, on Lickety's page, but not on the babble expert or the link.
no matter where i am..i can smell cigarette smoke...no one has had a cigarette in my house for 11 years...
i ask others..no one can smell it
Do you have a hyperacute smelling sense?
am i going nutters here? should i just chock up to stress with the move etc?
Wow Sue - that's pretty horrible, how does your Dad feel -
not that i am particularily aware of
hi BabRab
carlee - you're not mad. I can smell it too.
I am like that, kat--very sensitive to smells, sights, and smells.
he's upset, waiting for more news
Hello.
ah, ty BR.. missed those, ty sprite, sorry about your ding dong tooth, Scrabbler
put out that fag Dachef!
am so sorry usue
is it a strong smell, or faint, carlee?
should i be worrying..or no?
very faint...its like a catch a whiff then gone...
I often think I smell either cigarettes or marijuana in my son's room - both have been in there, but not recently (and my SO can't smell it either)
hi Br and aloy
uusue, I was just reading your profile....my goodness, you have had a lot of upheaval.
sorry,chat moving too quick for me.i'm going cross eyed!!
might just be a teeny residue somewhere?
and hello Babble Rabble -- lovely to see you!
indeed, trif, it's been a zoo.
hi liliann
Could be a spirit that is a smoker...or a olfactory hallucination...
no..no one around me smokes...no one around my son smokes...
get the same 404 when I click on Lickety clues below, h'mmm
Are you always in the same room when you smell it Carlee?
but everywhere i go...i catch a whiff..outside in the winter wind...
Hello
no...was at the church for guides....
I think you might have a ghost, carlee
I am so4 of joking, kat. But I often smell odors that no one else notices.
in my car
oh..lovely..on top of everything else..i have a smoking ghost...
same here, Scrabs and carlee. Especially with people.
Alright, I must get ready for work. Enjoy the day!
be well, Scrabbler
bye Scrabs
bye Scrabs
quorn is not in the dictionary although it is in my grocery store...
bye, scrabs, good luck!
101 words for later--one for each Dalmatian.
speaking of smoking -- mr hate's boyfriend smokes in the car whilst the kids are in it - do you think its within my rights to ask them not to do that, or is it out of bounds?
Aloy, i googled lickety, then bookmarked and i just click on it when i need it
thanks scrabs....hagd
I just read about quorn being a healthy food--made of mycoprotein from mushrooms.
bye scrabs
I would say it's within your rights, trif, certainly you can ask!
its within your rights... whether or not they do it...
if you think it has any change of succeeding, I'd say you have every right, Trif.
bye, Scrabbler, hagd
good idea, liliann, ty
quorn can be tasty
Trif--very hazardous to the kids' health. Should not be permitted.
but it is patented and written with a capital, so babble won't eat it.
Bye kids.
ah, I wasn't sure if it was a trade name or not.
ok..i still cant find bottom right s and left e

Hello, gramma
awww that was my girl calling... she needs to get a vaccination today, she was all big girl about it, going there alone and not needing mum anymore... and now she says she doesn't know exactly where it is, so could I pick her up from school and drop her back off after the shot?

I'm all for treats after shots.
pe4/5 and pe5/14 gramma.apparently fruits that have numerous seeds inside them

i think a treat is in order without a request :)
oh yes, absolutely. It is a great idea.
ok..if i type in despot on more time...am going to pull out my hair

apparently fruits? mmmm, I'll look with that in mind. ty
they are part of the gourde family apparently gramma
*takes carlee's hands away gently but sternly* Just try dessin in stead, or sapiens.
or pe and **st a letter

Yes, and I'm sure we all eat gourds every day. (she said sarcastically)
lol Molly, I am sure that would be healthy.
Ty. I was staring blankly at the grid.
sorry sprite.nice story about your daughter.they grow up really quickly.mine will be 12 this year and going to high school in the autumn.where does the time go??
clue for any of the 4 E's?

ed4/6 and et4/5, plural letters from some language
Old English - hi folks
Hi there
hi JBV
my daughter is a couple of inches smaller then me.she's going to take after her dad's side of the family.they are all 6ft and over
hi, jbv!
hi jbv
and Icelandic (modern) - just checked the dictionary!
If it's "old" English, is it "olde"?
Mmm...pi4 are in the grid. Now I want to make one.
my girl is only 3 cm smaller than me now. I will be the l'il one soon here. Well, vertically anyway.
Molly, I'd rather drink a pi4.
i'd rather a glass of pi5
snap, lillian :D
actually, the "Y" in YE OLDE - is the letter we are talking about - sometimes called "thorn"
What's wrong with eating pi4 and drinking a pi4 or some pi5?
thanks JBV, I love that background info. Molly: nothing at all!
going to molls for pi*8 this afternoon
well, i was actually going to say i wouldn't mind a pi4 to eat to go with my pi5
pi** even.sheesh
latest update from my dad is in my profile - my stepmom was taken to the emergency room a couple of days ago, they wound up removing most of her colon. She is doing ok but it is still very early.
uusue, is that the lady that wanted to leave your dad because he fell ill?
Well Carlee, we can have pi4 and then go for a ride in a pi8, if you wish.
oh, dear, sue - the troubles keep coming - so sorry to hear that - wishing you all the best, to you, your dad, and stepmom and family
sounds alot more fun then packing
sorry you are going through such tough times, uusue, seems when it rains it pours
Even though Enable can't spell pi8 correctly.
I seem to remember we had the correct spelling only recently in a grid though, Molly?
we could dotp for a few pi5
stats for q?
st4 even
4/7 and 6/27, and hello Kaplan
yes, sprite, that's her
Definitely a few pi5. Sue, sorry to hear about your Dad's wife.
hello all.

hi kap
hi Kap
how ironic, uusue :( Must be bitter for her, and for your dad as well. Painful stuff.
Sue, your icon has me singing James Taylor. : P
sorry to hear about all your troubles sue.hope everything works out
nbt
James Taylor?
yay for kap
Hi Kap. Which q stat do you still need. Sue...Steamroller Blues.
ugh..david frost is boring today...
good grief..still not half way
I must be off to pick up my girl. Back later :) Thanks for the company and help, 55 left now.
I have the 4. I think Taylor's version of Steamroller blues is the most anemic blues singing I have ever heard!
He is so not a churning urn of burning funk.
have fun sprite
bye, sprite.. hagd!
I have the q6 too.
That's funny Kap. Have you ever heard the story about how he wrote it? It is almost a tongue in cheek, poking fun at blues singers kind of thing.
research on alcohol: http://tinyurl.com/298zghv
bfn sprite
oh, ok, didn't know the song. Just thought it was a cool picture :-)
No- would I like it better if I knew the story?
Good morning everyone!
hi there car.
exercise time...
That's basically the story. He was in a blues club one night, listening to blues guitar players and just wrote this parody of blues singing. Hence the hokey line "churning urn of burning funk".
morning, car
I adore James Taylor - he can sing to me any time
Coffee time
uususe....I am right behind you!
hi car
must scoot too.. bye, Babblers!
Bye Aloy!
bye aloy
bye aloy
Is trif still around?
Here's a story: http://tinyurl.com/4aa4hta
Maryland lawmakers could ban smoking in cars with children
(OK, so I didn't exercise for a LONG time, at least it was something!)
That's fine uusue! As long as we keep moving!
Weighed in this morning......
I wonder how strictly that will be enforced. Seriously, don't the police have enough to do already? I wish adults would just be responsible.
sue,we passed that law here almost a year ago
I agree Molly. The police have enough to do.
morning all, what has happened to Licket's Babble clues..for two morning I get this message The URL you have requested could not be found. (404) I am not sure what it means...anyone know?
when i did smoke i never smoked in the car or in the house
http://r46.me/BabbleClues.html
no button.some of us are getting it and some not
I have them, fwit
is the list available to some of you?
see my link,yes i have it
I guess it is Button. Do you have Babble Expert?
CROSSY WAVES!!
hi crossy
whew! ty lil,thought i was invisible there for a mo:)
hi Crossy!
howdy car;)
Hi there Crossy and all you wonderful Babbleonians
Trif was wondering if she could ask mr. hate's boyfriend not to smoke in the car when her kids were in it, so I thought the story was relevant
you were op6 for a minute crossy
Crossy...I meant to tell you the other night, when i was channel surfing, there is a show (maybe on food network) that explores the different bacons across the world!!!!
and hi, crossy!
thanks Crossy, I got it.
Trifs kids need to ask him to not smoke in the car. They are old enough.
and re the in car smoking,our guys enforce it well,i mean with winter and the cars all sealed up and the kids gasping for air while smoking with mommy and daddy,tis not good and we evolve a little more;0
Mr. Hate's boyfriend should know not to smoke in the car with the kids in it
mmmmm euro bacon.....
Good morning/afternoon everyone
howdy annie
howdy bichon
NO....I totally agree it is wrong and rude. But in her situation, the kids need to talk to Mr. Hate about it and have HIM talk to the boyfriend.
Hi crossy :)
car. I agree totally
brb
anyway, just thought it might be useful info for trif if she runs into resistance. Or for her kids. Or whatever.
and we are issuing $185 dollar tickets for cell phone and drive infractions
yes,trif can lay down the law on it
Despite cell phone infractions and tickets people still do it. Shees, a Bluetooth oes cost that much
many smart phone come with free bluetooh headset anyways
didn't mean to start an argument, was just trying to be helpful...time for a shower now anyway. bbl!
and i am a rare breed,if the cell rings i let it go to the message box and check it when i am stopped...novel eh? lol
no arguement,just interesting conversation sue;)
crossy, some of us are more under control than others <ggg>
lol
no argument! Good information to pass along! I just don't want Trif to have yet another battle.
now if there was a bacon sammich on the seat beside me,i might be in trouble
LOL! I love it when cats are stoopid!
all cats are adhd
Dante just came running around the corner so fast...tail all puffy...and smashed right into a wall because he could not "handle the turn"!!!!
He is now sitting on my desk looking rather humilitated.
I have lost Babble Expert Clues. Anybody else having this problem?
lol car!
lol,i love the name dante,,should of named my kid that
yes dponfr
quite a few of us are.majority seem to be brits
how do u get the expert clues?
He was named by Trif and her crew.
It fits him perfectly!!!!
One of the BEST cats I have ever had the honor of living with!
i googled lickety and bookmarked it ivesy
ives, are you on a PC?. Macs don't get them
Help with the Q and lower P please?
people still use mac desktops? lol
qu- old fashioned and a little odd.
TY Kaplan.
crossy, I have a Mac desktop and a PC laptop
Babble expert isn't working for me either. I guess it is widespread but not definable as to who can see it and who can't? The workaround is good but more time consuming.
I gotan8.I am getting better at the compound word thing.
yes i am on a pc
Good for you Kaplan!!!!
Is it se 8?
(pats selfon back)
yep.
{{pat, pat}}
I still need lower P and lower S for NBT....grrr....
clue for the 8 please
pe4...green veggie
phae that's not the lower p
Hi Phae! Unfortunately, came from another P
place for unloading ocean cargo and pl
yea...see that..sorry
it's a pe4 I think
ty dart
Yes it is! TY Kaplan!
Think.....porridge hot
Also a different P, Molly!
pe 4 Kaplan, the lower one
pe 4/5 for the bottom p
Ooooh! Just found the corner S!!!!! NBT!!!!
pe4 silly word.
How does pe5/12 come from the upper p?
People who need people are the luckiest people in the world.
Never mind, I see it now
It twists.
Don't say people, say pe4.
oy, that's a weird pe
Thank you for the Barbara mention Kap. I just watched "Prince Of Tides" last night. : P
BarBRA. Hollywood wanted her to change her name, so she dropped the second a.
Legend has it.
Lovers are very special people.....
sa4 for the bottom S
Molly...that movie has haunted me since I saw it.
Barbra, Babs...she's like buttah. Although I thought she was horribly miscast in "Prince Of Tides". I didn't see Susan Lowenstein as her at all.
nbt, but not nbs
Really Car? Why? Because of the rape scene?
Add a T to the end of that sa 4 phae for sa 5!
Many of her movies miscast her- but she is an awesome talent.
Yup. Turns my stomach just thinking about it.
That one didn't bother me as much as Deliverance. I only watched Deliverance once. Never again.
Won't watch deliverance because of that.
I have a really big problem with rape in movies.
Snap
I have not seen a lot of movies because of it.
I was equally bothered by the fact that Tom went back to his wife. That didn't seem the appropriate end to that story.
I was so upset that I really don't remember much of the rest of the movie.
Shawshank REdemption is a great movie....but I leave the room for part of it, or watch it on TV when it is edited.
Good Morning everyone
Morning River!
Morning River. How are you today?
yes Shawshank Redemption is a great movie...my daughter had to watch it recently for her english class
Edited?
I am well - hope you all are as well
Good Morning Everybody. car.ee, you sound a lot like me. I won't even watch movies anymore because I have nightmares about them; even if they aren't *that* bad. The build up, suspense, and music just bother me
no full movie....She is a senior in high school - it was for her film studies class
Nice to see English teachers using Stephen King novels/movies.
hi river and nef
I find no entertainment value AT ALL putting brutal rape scenes in movies. It is horrible enough that it happens in real life, I do not see why it has to be acted out.
our school is pretty liberal on their book and movie selections
{getting off soap box}
Oops, I thought you said English class. It was a well made film. Good assignment for a film studies class.
I think that is great River.
Hiya everyone
Hi movieman! Great time for you to come in!
film studies is considered an english class
You mean during a movie discussion?
Hi movieman
I agree. Same with all the extra cruelty, sex, and violenc in everything these days
hey went to see I am Number 4 this weekend....I loved it = what did you think?
River...I think I would like that movie. You would recommend it?
Haven't seen it yet river
But I did see The Adjustment Bureau on Monday
Oooh!!!!!! Was it good?!!??!
I would recommend it...took my daughter and 2 of her friends..we all enjoyed it
More importantly...does Matt Damon get naked????
hi mm
Just for a short sex scene with Emily Blunt
also watched Inception this weekend..that was bizarre...makes you think
Would like to see both of those movies!
As far as Phillip K Dick films are concerned, it's pretty good
But not as good as Blade Runner or Total Recall
Totally off topic.....we have deer that walk through our woods/backyard. Can I put out food for them or is that dangerous for them?
I liked the idea of Blade Runner, but found the movie very slow. And then Daryl Hannah was in it, so that didn't help. Did like Total Recall though.
What about Minority Report?
how much of a pest will they be this summer eating your gardenns and shrubs, car.ee?
dont remember that one
I didn't see that because Tom Cruise was in it. I sometimes find his acting punishing.
Came out in 2002, with Tom Cruise
yikes, car - are you sure you want the whole deer tribe coming over for snacks?
Nef, this would be down back toward the forest line, well away from where we generally are.
if I saw it, it did NOT leave a lasting impression
We have a small herd that visits the yard next door, very lovely to look at, but so far they haven't figured out how to come across the fence into my yard, which is just how I like it
Next film on my agenda will be Battle:Los Angeles
Why are deer bad?
they will destroy whatever vegetation they decide is tasty - including the bark of trees
car, it's illegal to feed wildlife, it's considered baiting. besides the deer need to fend for themselves.
they will eat your garden plants and flowers
And, they have deer ticks, which spread Lyme disease
I was afraid if I set up some kind of feeding spot they would be sitting ducks for the coyotes.
Actually, deer mice carry deer ticks.
they eat the tops off my hostas every year
We have a chain link fence around our yard; we live about 2-3 blocks from a nature preserve (also known in the *olden* days as a slough) and we have deer, raccoon, and all sorts of other critters who come through our yard to get to a neighbors' yard about a block further away because that neighbor puts food out
we don't have gardens in the back acreage...just an old barn and brush and trees.
wildlife become dependant on humans to feed them, and that causes all sorts of problems for the humans as well as the wildlife.
OK....I get it. Do not feed the deer...bad idea.
I just really like them and wanted to be nice to them.
thought I would be helping.
you have a kind heart, but it is a bad idea. i have wildlife in my backyard and frontyard and...not a good idea to feed them.
I was just going to leave snack items....not full meals.
they are rodents with long legs and they like to run into your car
amazing how adaptable they are, they will forage for what they need, including gardens!
Kind heart, but also selfish! Would like them to come more often so I can look at them and watch them interact.
I have to admire these suburban deer- they stroll right down the middle of a paved street - how do they survive!
One neighbor was being harrassed by a deer that had a deformity. Every time she took her dog out to walk it, that deer would follow her and eventually it tried to get betwwen her and her home. I thought she was crazy when she told me; but it happened to another neighbor too. They had to call the city for help
if they feel safe in your backyard, they will make it a regular travel or resting spot
that is strange Nef
Oh dear (no pun intended)
when an animal acts strange like that, it could be the sign of disease
not unusual Nef. The deer was probably thinking it was protecting its habitat.
yeah. It was really weird.
Going to make an egg white omelet....any takers?
And if your dog chases a deer you can get fined for "worring the deer"
yup, here if we see a dog or a pack harrassing deer, they can be shot (the dogs not the deer). it falls under the domestic animal control law
This friends' dog is a King Charles spaniel (or whatever that breed is. It's never been off a leash outside; and she never has it outside in the yard alone (due to the fact that the wildlife has no problems with fences here
Leaving a Cavalier in the yard unprotected is bad. It is coyote bait
has to be a pretty high fence to keep deer out.
Sweet idea Car, but deer are very good at finding their own food. I'll pass on the egg white omelet. I quit egg yolks about a month ago and I'm darned sick of egg whites.
I must get to work now...have a great day everyone
does anyone know how many words there are today please?
171
I'm sure "our" deer could easily jump over our chain link fence but so far they haven't discovered it or needed to - the neighbor's yard is quite adequate for them right now - let it be that way
biab,
thanks

Bye everyone! Have a great day!
i had a deer in my neighborhood in DC once it was frightening
bye car

isn't it strange, jmc, to see deer in the city - I still wonder at it

ae and the vegetarian meat substitute,minus last letter and opp of out
we have another herd that I see in the grassy area near the toll plaza at Exit 10 on the NJ TUrnpike - how they got there I'm not sure, but it's pretty much surrounded by highway on all sides - once in a while you see one who has not learned to cross the street!
bocca burgers? tofu?
it uses the double letter tile jmc
no, it starts with the high scoring letters
there are foxes in rock creek park-- the first time i saw one of those i thought i was hallucinating--pretty red fox ran across the road

yw bichon
Lions, and tigers and bears.......... Oh My! Hi everybody :-)
hi soodle
hi soodle
what vegetarian meat substitute?
there are both red and gray fox about 2 miles from our house. Then there are also the wild turkeys in the area. A small apple orchid about 2 miles from here (in a different direction says that about 40 deer wander through their place going from 1 lake area to another all winter long
And rabbits, and deer and foxes oh my. Morning Soodle.
yes, they're cute, too, except when you've planted a vegetable garden

Personally - its the two-legged pests I find most irksome... - And I am not talking animal!
Monkeyed it- but never ate that and I am a vegetarian

go inge go!
i quite like the qu,mince substitute, as there's no fat.hubby doesn't like it tho!
not a cheese fan molly?
ty crossy
i like cottage cheese
i like all cheeses which is my main problem
if i could give up cheese i would be smooth and svelt
the austrian smoked cheese is one of my favourites, but i do prefer to cook with cheese than just eat it normally.i normally buy the low varieties jmc
plus i try not to eat too much of it
*low fat
my problem food is crisps!!
i rarely go a day without cheese--that was one of the biggest problems with my month in Kenya: no cheese!
Good morning everyone
hi bob
hi mr bob
hi Mr Bob
i hunt the exotic cheese,s down as a treat,there is a quebec hickory smoked apple cheddar that is soooo good...mmmm but at 10 dollars for a small wedge,it is an event with special service and not just 'eating cheese" lol
lol crossy.yes cheese is so expensive!
melted sharp vermont cheddar and a spoon!
but that is once in a blue moon
oven baked camembert
hi again, all! Showered and dressed, gobbling down breakfast. Class in 40 minutes.
ach! now I want to go melt some cheddar!
we have a great cheese shoppe here designed like a olde tyme london place called "dags and willows" they offer 150 types of cheese!
wb sue
I have to have cheese in the house; none of that canned shredded Parmeson allowed here
wb sue
cheese is my downfall also - sure did love living in France! And Switzerland!
sounds great crossy
hi uususe
reminds me of the monty pythin cheese shop skit lol,i go in and ask him if he has any yugoslavvian beave cheese in yet;)
beaver
god i would weight 500 pounds if i lived in france or swiitzerland
no, jmc, because you'd be climbing the Alps
my mam and dad live in france and i still have to take cheddar and stilton over for my dad!
lol more exercise means more cheese!
well of course lilli because they are such a different experience
i tried some of that wensleydale(sp) for the first time last month....mmmm
sharp cheddar is my fav
true, they don't get cheddar and stilton much (although Geneva was pretty cosmopolitan, you could get just about anything)
The Cheese Song from Pinky and the Brain is going through my head right now....
i can hear john cleese in my head right now
our supermarkets are now getting more foreign cheeses in which is nice
at christmas they do cheddar with cranberries and i don't like cranberries or fruit with my savoury but i must admit it does taste nice
i don't know pinky and the brain jeff
good morning, everyone :)

Hi all. Seeing the cheese discussion, here's a link for Crossy to salivate over. It's for ADSA on-line, the cheese section. There are 375 different choices if you keep clicking on 'more products'. That's about average for any of of supermarkets here. http://tinyurl.com/5sambzm

hi jac
Crossy - eventually you will get to Wensleydale with cranberry, or black cherries, or apricot. Double Gloucester with chives and onion. All sorts of yummy cheeses.
lol ty jac,i get into trouble with just 150 selections;)
i thinks it's a stinker carlee
hi jac

clue for se 6/18
back, hi all
Maybe it's just me, but I think it's impossible to de7 anything. There are other words for the removal of such, but that one just doesn't cut it.
hi sprite
how did your daughter get on sprite?
it means to portray, to depict
she did very well. She told me it did not hurt and she wanted to go straight back to school. I took her for a treat and then took her back to school.
where the ships go Molly
oh good.am glad she was ok
thanks for asking :)
np. it's nice to know about others :)
mmm,that was good,a few colesterol bombs and english muffins:)
aw crossy :)
no wonder you're putting off your tests crossy :(
but glad you enjoyed it :)
"i cannot hide much longer,the mrs and the dr are in cahoots
dietary cholesterol has virtually nothing to do with blood cholesterol. Eat the eggs, they're high quality food.
i see oatmeal in my future:(
darn horse food;((
aww, well enjoy your bacon and cheese while you can :)
i think i have a week left;) then however long it takes for the colesterol,lipid and stress test to come back
Cholesterol is vitally important for brain health. It also is the precursor of all your sex hormones and of vitamin d
indeed rast;)
see? no eggs,no nookie!
lol
the good cholesterol is anyway
I would trust my liver to decide how much I need before I would let a dr tell me.
lol
It's all good cholesterol. Big Pharma wants to sell statins, that's all
yeah, indeed the good cholestorol. I'd say, focus on fish, crossy. Some are very tasty, rich in good oils, and probably slightly better for you than bacon and cheese ;)
just out of curiosity,what is a great colesterol number,an average number and a bad number?
I need one more word for fireworks. Clue for se 6/18
something to feel with?
220 mg/dl used to be a perfectly fine number. They've reduced the "normal" value so they can sell more drugs.
I do have a master's in nutrition. not just talking through my hat
*!* ta da *!*
....go marching in....
se 6:: electronic device that detects intruders
wtg nan!
interesting rast ty,that gives me a benchmark
Cholesterol can be too low, they never tell you that.
wtg nan!
ty cyber got it and fireworks
yaa for nan and matches!
well they told me just that, actually
wtg matches!
Low cholesterol is associated with death from violence and suicide. That brain that needed more cholesterol goes cuckoo.
congrats matches
can a good level of colesterol vary depending on weoght? is a good number the same for a 120 pound woman vs a 220 pound male?
bye everyone -- see you tomorrow :)
tc cybernan
bye nan!
bye nan.tc
they make no distinction. The very weak correlation between higher cholesterol and heart disease in men has never once been shown in women
interesting
cause i tell you my friend,they will have to pry the eggs away from me out of my cold dead hands;)
Big pharma wants to sell statins. this is the most profitable drug there ever was. More than Prozac
now,i have cut way back on bacon
Eggs are fab fab food. Eat a dozen a day
lol
i am happy with 2 per day;)
hello all - rasta I believe even the "health food" manufacturers make up stats to sell more product
or maybe you want to be careful and check the facts, lol... take care of yourself, you hear, crossy?
hi ursh
Bacon's good too, as long as the cure isn't full of junk
fireflies. Must love and leave you. *hugs*
i will gather info from all sources,eat well,including my eggs,but back on fat,eat more fish and i think i shall be fine
Oh sure there's lots of lousy 'health" food out there
cut
tc sprite
you could read around here to see some scientists who like cholesterol http://www.thincs.org/
ty for info rast
wtg sprite.bye and tc
this site has tons of references too, to published papers. Like this one about alzheimers http://www.spacedoc.net/alzheimers_sta tins.htm
mm ,so not only are there total levels,but there are hdl and ldl levels.../
rastapopolous... have you seen the book Prescribing by Numbers? you'd love it!
Don't know it, Dorens; I'll check it out
hi doren.. I did have to make pasta last night after the prompting from you
The ldl and hdl are differences in protein carriers, the cholesterol inside is all the same
It says much of what you're saying very well (and my son wrote it..the father of my icon)
hah! and the funny thing is ru, that I didn't even make it, was just fantasizing... ate lentils and tomatoes and salad myself. dieting this week
Even more reason to check it out, D! Thanks!
i just googled it and read a VERY nice review on amazon
oh cool dorens
hi ruru
hi lil
yeah.. It just sounded so good and now that I am down to a svelt 224 I felt I could pull it off
whoa!~ your diet actually inspired me... (but then I had to go and celebrate with the 82 haut brion Monday nite)
not only did they put my job in the budget for next year, but also a second counselor, so I could go back to the sanity of just one school! However, the budget may well not pass the voters' test!
good luck with that
Dorens, I've put it in my wish list so that next time I put an order in to Amazon I'll remember to get it. Thanks
rasta, I hope to fear someday what you thought of it. Are you new to babble?
how did you make the pasta ru? (so i can vicariously enjoy it)
I learned about it over on Wordsplay a few months ago I guess. I should pay up for the pro I suppose, since I'm enjoying it.
mostachini with fresh peas, crumbled bacon, carmelized onions, fresh oregano, and aged asiago with olive oil and a touch of white Balsamic vinegar and one teaspoon of bacon drippings
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... drooling! and yes rasta, you must pay up -- the best $15 investment I've ever made, I'm an eternal proselytizer!
(and you just had to put in the bacon drippings in honor of crossy?)
Dorens, here is a review of your sons' book on the New England Journal of Medicine site: http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/N EJMbkrev58366 Very impressive (and I'll be reading it soon too)
oh fantastic, thanks Nef. He actually had an article published in NEJM a few months ago.
hi all
rasts, I joined over 5 years ago; it was the best $11 or $12 I've ever spent online
You must be very proud of him, Dorens. :-)
hi boobe.. and yes nef, I am, but can't take much credit.. he has always had an amazing brain, true scholarly curiosity, goal-oriented and yet humble. I'm lucky to have him + he has given me two enchanting grandkids
Hi Dorens
Dorens! What a sweet baby!
I agree ..
Hi Boo and Molly
Clue for second pa4?
actually, that is my first, she is being held in the arms of the aforementioned author as he was working on the final draft of the book. The second baby (20 mos. now) looks almost completely identical. and thanks
hi Nef
not mama kenny

Can't believe I miss it.Thanks
(first grandchild that is) great clue (i think from hurshy) spell the seed of an oak tree as weirdly as you can for ae8

so far, all I have is the plural of ri 4/5
ha, that's what i needed. thanks!
yay!
there's also the past tense of that one
huh, thought I tried that, helena, but there it is!
Hey, all. :)
hi, cgw!
:)
se 7-8 where the big ships dock,lol i am still trying to get this grid going.real life has been a pita today:/
ro 5/16 a game like cricket,but older
can someone clue the first to5/10?
lol,well talking to myself i shall never be lonely:) time to go scrub down this mass of muscle anyways.ill be back in a bit for a few more before work..semi-poof!
clue for op 6
to5/10 ends in two vowels the same
op6 - the opposite of transparent
thanks!
You're welcome.
hi Haz and ty
op6 - kind of like this grid :^)
Glad to help, Boo and hello.
tx Haz got all 3
NOW is anyone else besides me not able to get into lickety?
Hello, hoot, glad the clues worked.
Came in just in time. :D
I can't access it through expert, but the link from yesterday should work.
the link below is not working.
op-7X2
The link at the bottom of the page worked for me.
I heard you could google it and it will come up
http://r46.me/BabbleClues.html
Oh I got it from my Most Visited link but it makes no sense that it would be there and not here.
Creeta, those words are not clear.
r46.me/BabbleClues.html
op7 - past tense and plural endings for the non-transparent op6.
somehow the link below has changed to a google link
if you look at the url when you click on it it doesn't match
well I use Mozilla Firefox on Google - idea - brb
I would imagine that that was an act of Dr. God.
I've always used firefox and mine no longer works
Any Rafy Nadal fans here????
OK - just checked on yahoo and not there either
I wouldn't say I was a fan. But I do appreciate him as a tennis player and sportsman. Uneaixoise is the real deal.
Uneaixoise are you here? I came across a video that I don't think has been seen in the states (on Italian TV) - here's a link, have your blood pressure pills ready..... http://video.corriere.it/nadal-come-be ckham/0ce1154c-497b-11e0-8210-720c80ef 41f5
I asked DrGod about it when it first started and he said it was Licketys problem - not his baby.
Haz, did you have a different icon this morning? Or was that another Haz?
Oh, I was fiddling around with icons this morning. It was me. Is it not back to Spangle?
I see Spangle
It is back to Spangle. I didn't recognize you as "teacups". : )
Milk jugs and sugar bowls - I was trying to illustrate some of the vintage ones I'm buying up for centrepieces for daughter's wedding.
But the photo was so small it didn't do them justice.
So, back to Spangle and familiarity.
Oh what a nice idea for your daughter's wedding. Very original.
Thank you. I hope it works out but meantime I'm having fun on e-bay.
Here is my best guess about why Lickety isn't working for some. Somehow, the link to the list has been compromised, and only for certain people. So posting the link you see when you successfully connect, is not going to help those people out. It's some kind of internal code problem that needs to be fixed by Lickety (I guess, since Dr. God says it's not his thing to fix).
I followed the new link at someone's suggestion and it worked for me when the old one didn't
My best guess is that the sellotape has slipped and a wire has come out from somewhere.
2nd tr 6/21 plz
Second tr6/21 is the same as the first save for the last vowel in the word
but Europe had the problem for only 1 day and I am now on day 2
No, we still have the problem, hoot. You've not been singled out!
I can't access the list through expert any more, only using the other link.
tyvm!
oh-ok didn't know that
You're welcome, ivesy.
I've got precisely no idea what's going on, hootowl, but I feel your pa4/5.
can you clue the first TR6?
was that the sec 6/21 ir the 4th?
i mean the first tr 6/67
6/27
well as long as I can get the list in the Most Visited list I'm ok
The first tr6/21 is a plural for tr5 - a word sometimes used for offal, or rubbish.
and the sec not related?
oh jeez, i had them already - i'm losing it! thanks anyway
it looks like there are 4 and i have the 2nd and the 4th
No problem, Helena.
monkeyed it
Now for the abominable ae8 and fw
Sing out if you want a clue.
pleeeeeeeeese ae8
haven't understood any given this morning
ae8 - ae plus to preserve the status ***, then first three letters of what you do to wash shampoo from your hair.
i'm sorry, can you clue the LAST tr6/21?
The last tr6/21 - ends in the opposite of out
Oh man - I looked up the ae8 - it's what makes jellyfish light up blue - is that cool or what
same 4 ltr intro + not out
thats 4th 6/21
thanksall
You're welcome, Helena.
no wonder I didn't understand the clues! tytyty and firewords
Well done, hootowl!
no way could I have monkeyed that!
tytyty
If you had, we'd be gazing at you in wonderment for the foreseeable future.
gd evening everybody
I'll have to remember that...
hi ruby

It's more often spelled with a -gue than a -que but if you know the song Jambalaya you've sung about it. "gonna pole my pi* down the bayou"
you just gave me an earworm, hoot, that cajun song with a lyric "me gotta go row my pi****** down the bayou, Son of a gun, we have big fun, me oh my oh, We gotta pole that pi**** on the bayou"

I was at the doc's today... I've gained, too. =(
thank you lilliann. How are you?
is that good or bad, lindy?
am feeling better thank you.how are you?
not good, I really should lose a bit
I gained 3 lbs while husband was in hospital, but I think it's muscle from doing his chores
(and buying myself treats)
probably as you were on your feet alot
lol
carrying wood, walking dog, groceries, aaarghhh
is it next week that burt's daughter arrives ruby?
yes, on the 17th. I'[ve started putting letters into obscure folders....."dog food recipes" etc
lol, lets hope she won't be entrigued about the recipes!!
she doesn't even like dogs!
that's alright then
If you're lucky, they won't like her either!
who couldn't love your dog.she's huggable!
Is she staying long?
she tends to pet Ruby with her foot
only a week
when we took her to the vet yesterday (the dog, not his daughter LOL), the vet kissed her and said she was the best-natured chow he'd ever met!
i'd kick her back! ruby should bite her!!
Why bother if she doesn't like them??? We will help you thru the week
lol! aww bless her
I'll make her help me clean the dog's ears! evil me
lol and clear up any mess in the garden!
I have to do a bit of shopping - stay cool ruby - bbl
you are more fiendish than I, lilliann
bye hoot!
bfn hoot
ooh, i can be evil when i want!! :)
having a terrible time with this board today
yes it is a slow going grid aslindy. well for me anyway!!
I only have 93 words but the chat is more fun anyway
me too aslindy..it is difficult
28 left but hard going!
hello boo
hi ruby
i've just found 3 st words and i can't believe i missed them!!
good afternoon all
May i have a clue for the ae 8?
make it 4
hi wvteach
hello car.
hi teach
hi everyone!
ae and the band status *** and opp of out
haz's clue was ae + status *** + beginning of getting shampoo out
sorry, missed a cons after the group
Good grief! TY!
and somebody said it means what makes jellyfish iridescent!
ty ruby and Haz, never would have found that one
is the ae5 related to it?
on the tip of your tongue, right?
apparently it makes jelly fish blue
no aslindy
the ae5 is an insect
I don't know about anyone else, but I don't ever want to be close enough to a jellyfish to see what that looks like. I've been stung by one once and it hurts a LOT.
amen, molly!
ooh, not nice molly.is it jelly fish stings that they say to pee on?
an insect? sorry, not getting it
probably because ammonia works, too
order of insects maybe
oh, now I have it
or vinegar
my hubby watches the discovery channel alot and likes the animal planet.the other week we were watching creatures of the deep and there were some beautiful coloured jelly fish.it was like disco lights!
ok, taking a break for now... see ya later!
they can be beautiful but very creepy to me. I was once offered them in a Chinese restaurant eeeew
BBL! Ty for the clues!
bfn aslindy
hi again, all! back for another few minutes while I eat lunch...
wouldn't be my cup of tea ruby
hi sue
hi sue
no more news about my stepmother, and the hospital won't talk to me :-(
why won't they talk to you?
why not sue, as you are related by marriage
the only person they have as a contact is her son.
say you're a consulting physician and would like a progress report
lol, ruby!
just sound officious!
why doesn't he keep you informed th4?
the nurse did say she'd just arrived on that floor - i'm guessing that she was transferred from intensive care - and that she was ok. So that's good.
say you're the family doctor and just want to make sure she's eating or getting up or something
yes, that's a positive sign
well, he did send me a bunch of texts last night, which was how I found out she was sick in the first place; I'm guessing he's been at the hospital nonstop for a few days and is probably home getting some sleep
aye, probably. it must be hard on him aswell
happy 100 and good night everybody!
my dad did let her actual family doctor know, so maybe he will call (the hospital said they couldn't talk to my dad either)
night, ruby!
nite ruby.sleep well and tc. hugs
and i must be off to work.tc everyone and happy babbling...poof!
because they're separated?
as I couldn't get info when husband was in hospital (my French wasn't good enough to be forceful), I had his MD call to make them get him out of bed
bye crossy.tc
{{sue}} and big hug lilliann
no, I think it's just the new medical privacy regulations (HIPAA) - they won't give information to anybody you haven't authorized
and what if you're not in a fit state to say who'se authorized?
Sue, why did I think your Dad's wife was in another state?
She is. He's in NJ; she has left him and gone to MI. And lilli, I don't know what they do if you can't tell them who you want to be informed.
Okay, I guess you were talking about her son who was tired and had been at the hospital. At first read, I thought you were talking about your Dad.
oh, sorry! I was indeed.
does anyone have the alternate link to get to Lickety
http://r46.me/BabbleClues.html
Teach can you let me know if that link works for you? I don't know why it would when it's the same link connected to the link from this page, that isn't working.
it didn't work for me yesterday so i just googled lickety and have his list that way
That was a smart move Lilliann.
most states have a law that sets a priority on who the doctors should talk to if you aer not competant
unfortunately most hospitals haven't figured out how the new hppa and the old next of kin rules interact so they default to not talking
hi all
someone suggested i do that this morning but i can't remember who it was now
the alternate link has always worked for me - http://r46.me/BabbleClues.html
Hi all....clue please for se6/21??
hi, jmc!
i've now put it in my profile so i can always access it
good idea, teach!
i'm looking for that one myself flask, but not having much luck!
good idea wv!
why do some people have trouble with Lickety and not everyone?
hi jmc
hi all - se 6/21 - octopus ink plural
Okay, then there must be something wrong in the code that connects from this page to the Lickety page. But it would seem that would affect all, not some.
no idea teach, but it is a bit of a pain!
it has something to do with google but the whole thing mystifies me
stats for the bottom P please
my tool bar is yellow now, it wan't any colour yesterday, but still no list
your tool bard?
tool bar. . . sigh
pa -- enamel or latex ... pl\
lill - have you tried the alternate link

oh, here people are...hi nef, uu
thx for icon like ;)
I see you, Pini. Can't you see me?
Hi. I'm wondering, since Lickety's List link has gone kaput for a couple of days now, if one of the following scenarios is happening, a) Lickety and Gr_God have fallen out, b) Dr_God's away and so doesn't know things are going wrong. c) Maybe the new form of Babble is soon to arrive and so some links may be broken and things get slow for a while.
I'm gettin' there, Nef...
...did receive a red-message; now it's 'slow'
hi Jac.
The read message is better than the blue screen of death! LOL
hi Jac.
ok, I am off for the night - see you all tomorrow!
not sure, jac, but Lickety is posting lists; just the link below the grid seems to not be working. If you need one, try this: http://r46.me/BabbleClues.html
Bit of a delay on the chog still.
Pini - It's okay, I know that link, but thanks for posting it anyway.
Bye uusue2.
no problem. I do hope the new release comes out soon; I'm looking forward to the new bells and whistles.
good night uusue. I was going to ask how things are going; but now you are gone
night uu
I only came back to chat and/or give clues. But the chog seems to be limping.
Looked back to see Manatee had a large 'hiccup', but I think it's clearning now....
Anyone need any clues, btw?
I have too many to ask for right now, jac (91)...might need some help later tho...
I won't be around later, Pini, so ask now, if you want to receive.
oh, gosh, jac, I wouldn't even know where to start! * sigh *
And I'm pretty much sure I won't be finishing this grid tonight, due to hiccups
And I'm pretty much sure I won't be finishing this grid tonight, due to hiccups

Well done, Dan.
I can't enter any words now; first it was chat; now the grid. I quit for tonight. Good luck to everyone else
Shame about that, nef. I wonder what's going on with Babble?
It's not a super huge grid, so the glitches are mysterious.
I can't check on the entering words thing, since I finished hours ago.
I'll bid you all good night. Happy Babblimg.,site allowing.
Lord! This is almost as slow as the old dial-up system used to be.
Good grief!! That was fun!! Not!!!
