*poofing with hugs*... had a stressful day..... funeral for a dear friend...
oh, how sad, dee.
she was such a dear woman; you would have loved her, and she is truly going to be missed... I have known here since I was 17 years old...
nbt (well, I was late arriving)
wtg jili
I can well imagine how you will miss such an old friend
waving... cya at the flip!!
need a clue for de6 please?
no can do, flosey -- sorry!
tks, is everyone else gone?
looks like it
when did Babble get back?
was up when I came in, a few minutes after flip
de 6 to hate something flosey
thanks ru
and past tense for the 8
got it, and the 8 as well, thanks
darn -- I had it up before that but it was still blank, even when I refreshed, so I did jigidi jigsaws while I waited.
strange
ty ruru (not in bed yet?)
poof
now I am
pants on fire
fireworks
yay flosey!
thanks jilli, your icon is much clearer than mine, you must have cropped it?
yes, flosey -- I end up doing a lot of cropping.
I just didn't take the time
over halfway
well done
you didn't need to!
and tomorrow's icon will have to wait until we see the grid
right
so, better get to bed, be well rested for our last AH game
I cropped the image from Wikipedia -- I think yours came from Google Images, yes?
enjoy the grid, not many odd ones
yes, googled it
goodnight now
Yes -- have fun too, then breathe a sigh of relief. Btw, Joanne asked me if I would like to do AH with her next year -- I told her I wasn't going to do AH, although I might spare.
Goodnight and good luck with the cards.
hi and nbt
hi and wtg josh -- not many here just now
how are you jilli
I'm fine -- and you?
i am well. wondering why tiedye is not a word
Actually I'm a bit tired -- did you know Babble was broken for quite a while today? Server trouble. I didn't realise it was back until 45 minutes after the flip -- was doing jigsaws online while I waited.
i had no idea. how long was it out, do you reckon
Well, you know Enable...
Several hours -- not sure how many.
was it an outage or server maintenance or does anyone have any idea
i certainly would understand if the server needs to be rebooted or upgraded now and again
Dr God announced that he was having a battle with the server.
with the way people are pounding the server adding words at all hours of the day i'm surprised it doesn't happen more often
poor thing
i would be curious to see a graph of the activity and server load and bandwidth at different times of the day
maybe Dr G could tell you.
i am on late night on one of the most populous time zones and it's still pretty cracking
cracking? In the Brit sense?
very busy
the Brit sense (old-fashioned) is as in "having a cracking good time at the party, old chap."
yes, a cracking good time
or "He played a cracking game of cricket"
simply smashing
rather
i studied in london for awhile and have been back many times. i would love to live in england in an alternate life
Or is on the brink of insanity ... which may be a cracking good time too, I suppose.
now that they have central heating and indoor water pipes
18 left and eyes are slamming shut -- pillow time.
Hello babrab!
I see what you meant, lol
but off I go -- goodnight all and sundry...*poof*
g'night jilli
Oliver Spooner is a twat
good morning, bright and sunny but coooold!
Good morning Rubyfoo

Hi

How you?
very strange weather -- still freezing at night but gorgeous by afternoon. The bulbs are trying to get flowers, but not quite yet
Winter is slowly seeping in

hello again, Lunch is finished and I'm just browsing for a few!
to7, most chic!
still can't find anything for the e's in the second column!
is anybody there?
any clue for the es8 ?
Hi ruby. I'm here 8)
you're kidding, right? hahah
hi gramma
I have only one 8 and still nothing on those two pesky e's
ahh, got one!
I found one of them.
et4/5
got it...es8 is all in top two rows
almost
ed4/8
guitarist dwayne...ede/8
ed4/8
I would give my ey8/55 for a clue to the es8!
brb
you must be older than you look, ouwachita!
hello city 17
BLESS you city 17, and good morning all!
I am older than dirt
{{trif}}
or at least I feel it today
no, I am older than dirt! hahah
morning, all... Ouwachita, you should see the mess I'm making with the letters from the top row now!
I am as old as my nose, and slightly older than my te5
cant you see I am gray? lol
I am so gray! The only woman in France
old sexy nightgown?
I'm 38 and have floofy grey bits on my temples and scattered through the top - started when I was in my mid-twenties, to my bemusement.
did you know that your nose and ears keep growing even as the rest of your shrinks? That is a depressing fact......
not sure they grow, the cartilage becomes lax and they drop, seeming longer
I used to have a lovely grey/white streak, but then it fell out. Not LOL
speaking of things that drop... er, then again, perhaps not.
as long as my ______ keeps growing without the use of viagra I am happy
hahah, city
Aw, ruby, I'm sorry you lost your streak.
et bonjour jean
and you ruby :-)
I've never colored my hair, but now I am thinking of clear henna to thicken what's left!
Aha, es8, there you are! Remove the 'an' from the surgical knock-out compound.
good clue city
thank you ... uh, I hope everyone *wanted* one.
I'm back in the nick of time. ty
nap time for dopey ruby!
enjoy your sleeps, ruby :) I'm off to see if I can accomplish something other than fireworks this afternoon.
See you later, ruby. Sweet dreams
fireworks is an unattainble goal for me
Bye, city.

Morning JMC. Hope you brought your umbrella today. : P
lol jmc - i wouldn't recommend it for everyone, never thought I would have the will power. sugar was my drug :) now I can pass up cake or other sweets without much thought.
Ready to work. 2 minutes early. See you all tomorrow.
not raining yet and i leave for work at 10 :-)
gosh angela i gave up sugar fairly easily a few years ago--cheese is my down fall
and being lazy
that too :)
my trigger was turning 40 - didn't want to be over weight anymore...
Gads, it's pouring out here.
hmm maybe turning 60 will do it for me angela
really you are at union station, no?
maybe! :)
60 is the new 50 right?
snowing here...
oh it is raining here too, but not hard enough to hear
oh well good for the reservoirs--they were low
No, I'm out in the MD suburbs.
lol i hope 60 is the new 40!
30 and 40 were good decades
oh i thought you worked downtown
if that math is correct - then I am just barely of age to drink ;)
and there i thought i would go for a walk this morning
ah another thing i should probably cut back on *quickly hides the bourbon glass from last night*
*hiccup*
well good for you for taking control of things while you are young angela
lol
coffee?
tx jmc...wasn't easy but well worth it.
well i must go do some work before i go to work
That's an amazing picture in your profile Angela. I took one like that once. Clouds that look like a dove.
nice chatting with you angela
molly let me know and i will row over later and pick you up!
ditto jmc :) Molly - my father in law took that back in the 70s and I've always loved it, reminds me of him
Bring the bourbon JMC. : P

Good morning! I would like to buy an E.

good morning everyone
Morning river!
gee - first 80 words came quickly - now stuck...guess I will have to list soon
moprning river
and I am not even close to making NBT - ugh!
I just need 1 E word for NBT.....grrrrr..... can I help you?
I need an E, J and T... still working it
Let me know...
probably the same e for all of us
Much to my dismay...I opened Lickety and there is an ES 8 and an EY 8!!!!
I have e's from each if I can help anyone. good morning
Morning Mom!
ey 8 is a compound word
morning Car.
Would love a clue for es 8 please?
good morning Mom
Got the ey.
car. of course you would ask for the es I don't have that one
good morning ((River)) good to see you
That is the single E I think most of us are looking for!
I have the ey too
the single e I believe is e +**i* is not an easy grid
that was my missing E
No...the single E is the EY 8.
es 8 = es+ending of a sleep inducing drug given for ops
I thought that was it! TY Kallia!
hello all
Hi Kallia
(closing Lickety back up)
thanks kallia
Good morning Kallia!
yw :)
thanks Kallia, I have something from each of the E's just not sure what came from where
morning, all! Nice to see babble is back!!!
Hi uusue!

Hi uusue
morning uusue
I was having some problems getting on line at all
it got pretty flaky last night, Kallia
Morning all. *Passes around cheese danish, coffee, tea and umbrellas*
good morning Molly
No Danish for me, but thank you! Yes on the coffee!
thanks for the danish
Morning Molly!
tea for me, please
ooh, love the coffee!
I am thinking of all the possible compound words that could go with ey3, and they are amusing
But wrong.
halfway, nbt, nbs, and now I must head out for it is errand day. ((Hugs)) to all of you
Bye Mom.
Kap, what you see with and what is in your mouth
bye bye Molly, hope it is a great day for you
That is funny in an of itself.

Bye Mom!
I have HUGE issues with de 5/18
bye bye ((River and Car.)) wishing you all a great day.
I'd give my ey8 to have thought of a clue like that!
bye, mom!
I don't have it yet Molly.
de5 is lame.
bye bye uusue, yours is a much better clue
Oh look, there is a Breakfast Club girl in the grid.
LOL!
there is pig-latin in the grid too.
halfway, NBT and NBS - time to fix breakfast
Bye WV!
Can I have a clue for that DE 5 so I can not like it too??!?!
Yay! I ove-lay ig-pay atin-lay
me too, car - I have de5/12, 14, and 16 but no 18.
It rhymes with The Breakfast Club girl Car.
Ohhhhh! Got it!
See? Lame.
Means Industrious or active....seems like a silly word to me! Just use "industrious" or "active"!
ok, don't know the breakfast club, sorry...
2 quid says it's a British phrase.
good morning, everyone :)
Sue, rhymes with what you are if you are moving very fast.
Hi Cyber!
hi, nan!
Like se 5/16 but with a d.
Morning Nan.

Oh...if you have to! Have a great day Kaplan!

I think it is actually tye-dye
Mere technicality.
true dat1
* dat!
Oooh! Just got 2 more of the 8's!!!
I guess I'm still missing the w.
Extension of the lame word must be one of them.
Do you want a clue

Kap, Betty the comedian, different spelling.

oh- that.
I need a t from the lower right for nbt...

Bye Kallia! TY Again for your help! have a great day!

Uh oh....I found a House marathon...there goes my productivity for the day!
My favorite episode of House is the one where House goes to his Father's funeral.

bye river

in 4/4
Wow. NBT
congrats mark
i/2 way also! Awesome.
well this is a pretty easy one - 5 to go already. 2 D 2 T and 1 E
Nice, hurshy!
are there any T8 words?
I doubt it, but i don't know.
no t8 words - at least from the list of 8;s that someone gave me
is the ey8 we were recently discussing the only E8, or is there another?
May i have both de8s?
There is another
and another de8, i see from your question. ok!
es 8
one of the de8's means hated.
Okay, time for me to go. Second period! BBL
Thank you hurshy...
the other one is ... well there's a 5, first of all, that's like, "yes in*****!" and then you take the five and make it a superlative.
the es8 must mean like, feeling or sensing. the opposite of what they give you to put you out for surgery.
*waves to adorable Babblers* Good morning!
and the two to's i missed weren't fishy, so my only fish today is one di5.
morning judi
i am a bit worried about my friend/co-worker. she isn't here and didn't reply to my text. i hope she hasn't had a car accident.

that could be good or bad,is it going up or is the cable broke?
up and down, up and down, all day long lol
ahh
someone buys a ton of books, then i have to spend it all on the effin' car. grrrrrrr
:((
you do not have to tell my,i spent 200 on the exhaust,then 1200 on insurance,now the plates sticker is due and i need an emission test this year
stoopid cars!!!
but, being in detroit, i sell a lot of books on cars, so there's that . . .
tbh,if i could live a life without a car,i would be in clover
my car is so old, a guy came up to me at gas station to tell me they might want to use it in the movies lol
and my next phantom: sedition!
lol,mine is great shape and i am still throwing the cash at the thing
mine is a toyota echo and only 7 years old,so barely broken in:)
gotta take 'er to salt lake city and back. or maybe madison. lol
NBT yay hooray and woot
i have to go down to hamilton soon,there is a guy down there who,s father passed last year and the kids are cleaning up the old home place and he is selling 2500 hardcovers as a lot
!!!! (i once went ot hamilton to see a play)
mix of fiction and historical non fiction
ah, well you enjoy, it's all yours LOL
i shall,i may get it for a dollar a book:)
but we shall see once we give the title and books a look
i forget, you have an open shop?
he was buying hardcovers since the late 40,s when he came home from the war
about to open,this may be my start up stock
sweet!
crossy drolls and imagines volumes of pristine arkham house edition from the 40,s with dust jackets ;) lol

drools
look out for danielle steel, she'll fill up your shop if you're not careful LOL
stephen king with heels lol
good one!
the new king stuff that is,his older stuff was better,he is thinking too much these days
when i worked in an open shop (new and used, mostly used) we sold a good amount of stephen king, but ms steel just kind of sat there
i plan on losing money the first year,with 50% of the stock sitting there,i have a buyer for some of the historical stuff,perhaps,i think i will take in another 500 books on trade or in-store credit...bring in your old books! in store credit only! lol
hello, 21 impossible words to go!
((ruby))
break even the second and make a bit on the third
i was gonna start a new round of weeding yesterday, but a caller put 40 books on hold, so i have shelf space again! 8-D
hiya ruby!
I love this book talk! I wish I was closer. I am always giving away books!
hi ruby
hello all
de6/21 pls
just ship half to me and half to crussy lol
hello peri
i still need that word, and 29 more, sorry
ack, i meant crossy. (OY)
:)
my sister used to send me "m bags" from the US; for about $11 she could send a dozen books. Then they stopped the deal
good morning from the Bay Area
{{bichon}}
speaking of crosshairs, my grid looks like a cross, with the corner blocks filled in, and a white Latin cross left
howdy bichon
de 6/21 means to hate
yep, the US post office got secretly bought out during the George W. Pinhead admin, and they eliminated a lot of the cheap services. bastards!
and pt!
TY molly!
is that what happened? She would ship the books in old canvas US Postal bags -- by ship
what about those"if it fits,it ships " boxes i see on the u.s commercials
that is no more ruby. Lots of people, like those who send books to poor countries lost out
yep, they completely eliminted shipping to foreign addresses by "surface" mail. now the cheapest option is First Class International. as i said, bastards!
yeah, they don't mention the cost, crossy
yeah, the standard boxes are for Priority Mail, which is sometimes a bit cheaper than first class intl
here it costs about 6 dollars to ship a 3 dollar book:(
ty molly
it costs more to ship a book than to buy it new
i sell through 3 websites -- on amazon, i can actually set a book for "no intl" which I do on the large or heavy books.
i just had a query from scotland for a small booklet, and it would have cost me $9 to ship it to them. they canceled and i don't blame 'em
When I sell on Ebay, I don't do international shipping
lol@ the thought of sending and entire set of encyclopedias to auckland lol
hence the appeal of e-books - no shipping!
$13.95 is the flat rate fee for a book going priority intl, *if* it will fit in their standard 9 1/2 x 12 1/2 envelope
lol gwen,scan it,i can reformat it into pdf,lit or e-pub and then you can sell it to them as an ebook!
yup, and hi sue!
when I was still working and living in the US, I bought my husband the whole Rutledge Encyclopedia of Philosophy
get this: if i sell a book on amazon, and i can ship it for $13.95, i still only get $11.14 from amazon to ship it. thus i have to bump up my prices on amazon to cover that.
do you think I could sell my husband on e-bay? I would throw in the shipping.....
will he fit in the envelope????
I could be like King Procrustus [sp?] and cut off the parts that stick out
a whole nother topic, ebooks. i'm working on a bunch of them right now.
(i mean writing, not reading)
calbire is your friend gwen
ruby, i'm (fake) shocked! LOLOL
best conversion program out there
hubby being a bit of a pain ruby?
hahahah ruefully
actually, i have a freind who's done some ebooks, and he's helping me with mine. just the formatting and stuff, not the writing
the formatting takes no tiime at all
ruby, is your hubby out of the hospital?
well, kids, my appointment looms, gonna go poink. POINK
must go and cook -- still have 20 words left. Will come back with fresh eyes after dinner
type it all as a html open doccument and the rest is a breeze
oh yes, bichon, he was there for only 12 days and is getting back to "normal", has even gained 3 lbs
hurry back ruby tuesday:)
It's good he's home and doing better
{{everybody}}
the hospital wasn't doing him any good
was he there for a reason
hi all pls help te6,18
teesh
sry that was a try

Ivesy Mother Elizabeth....is a Catholic saint. Also looks like two words put together that means you lay something down.
te6,18 plz
Te4/4,with a double vowel added
so simple when yousee it, thx Mr Bob
ah, thks to both of you.. !
yw
does the to 7 start with to *** a car?
oops got it ! and it doesnt lol
Hi fellow babblers!
good afternoon all :)
ivesy, share please
Hi sprite
hi beach
ivesy, do you have the clue for the to 7?
I have one that is a superlative, bichon
Bich...most like singer Tenille.
got it, ty Sprite and Molly
and hi, bichon and Molly
Was that the to 7 ivesy meant. I thought she was talking about the one on the lower right
Hi everyone and good morning from the Bay Area
no idea, all I read was to7
There is only one to7
lol the icelandish letters are back from yesterday!
ty Molly
Hi Bichon,
I am having so much trouble getting NBTs
today
Hi beach
is it a baddy? So far it goes well, but I guess I better watch out for the brick wall?
I can understand the vowels, but the w and the center d?
the center D is a plural, bichon.
wait, I had a breakthrough, I got a center d
same here, bichon
and the W is a misspelt color (or lack thereof)
the w is an alt spelling of a color
ty for that
ty amelu
lol
yw beach :)
yw, sprite and I must have hit enter at the same time, lol
I am missing both the e's in the second column, but I do have the Icelandic sagas
great minds, amelu ;)
Icelandic sagas?
no, just letters. Also letters in old english.
You mean for 64 years I thought they wer sagas?
try google... I don't expect a hit from the letters plus sagas.
there's a Wiki article about them. I don't think they are alphabetic letters, but are literature
the bottom o?
I am sure about the letters
oy 4/6
of course, how silly of me. TY Molly
I needed a nudge for that one too Bich
I finally have NBT and NBS thanks to y'all
I still need one 8 and the lowest E in the 2nd column for that.
hated immensely
Holler if you want clues Sprite.

yes timber
and welcome to the game
thank you very much

it means there are no words coming from that tile. if youll notice, there is another Y that has 3 words coming from it.

::offers JMC corn chips, also nice + salty::
*sigh* but ty for the chips

past hope = guacamole!

mp timber
can someone clue the ed6?
sorry don't have that yet Helna
disat
disay
'what doe the 6 mean? i am new so please forgive me asking all the questions
pl of ed 4/8, unless there is another
6 means 6 letters in the word
whirlpool
thank you again
if a word is described as ti6/54 it means it has 6 letters and the score adds up to 54
'ya'll are very helpful!!!!!
and 6-letter words are tripled, so the tiles actually add up to 18
TY for the whirpool clue snags
mp glantarell
gonna try wordsplay cy later. thanks for the help
13 left, gotta hit lickety
I have to say, I never finish a puzzle......... cause I am just to lazy to search for the obscure words or those I have never heard of

18 left here, maybe come back later and finish lol
I finish occasionally snags and would like today to be one of those occasions!
ed 6 is plural of a man's name
thanks for the clue!
lol good luck
one more thing, if you get a word and dont know the meaning, just click on the word and the meaning apears
correction, click on the question mark next to the word, then you will find the meaning.
clue for he5/12?
robbery
TY
I'd been looking for that for ages
es8?
es + the last part of what they give you to put you to sleep for surgery
thanks!
a particular substance rather than a generic?
found it
hi, all!
short break while waiting for my new office computer to arrive...
Ah lucky Sue, a new computer.
my current one is 10 years old, so it's about time!
Can I please have a clue for the DE 6/21? :)
hate, megg
pt takes you to the de8
ohhh TY!! :D
ok, so maybe the computer will come tomorrow - apparently it doesn't have a wireless card and will be reusing the one from my present computer, and the disks containing the drivers seem to have gone missing. sigh.
sorry to hear that sue
oh, well. Meanwhile I only have 13 words left - what will I do all evening if I finish the grid now??? :-)
it is so appropriate that i couldn't get the di 5/16
as i don't have the di6 i can't tell!
I have 20 left sue
what some ppl call a blonde
aaah, TY
I gather you're not a brunette then snags1
sue, have u ever heard of www.isketch.net
can sum1 explain the es8 please? not getting the medical clue given earlier lol
i tried every combo of those letters! my monkeys were blind!
its a site where you have to draw a word or guess what someone else is drawing. rather fun
take what you get to go to sleep for surgery and take off the 1st 2 letters
just looking at it, speller - looks like fun!
is that an american surgery procedure or uk?
if you generalise anaesthetic and use the l;ast 6 letters you should get there frogface
oh ok got it ty xxx
probably not something I should do at work, though, speller :-)
cl for ey8 pls
the longest pieces of ivory in your mouth ;-)
oh duh - ty - fireworks
actually i DO do that at work!
i mean, i give it!
ed4/6 pls its doin me head in lol xxx
monkey it - ends in s
not happening!!!!!!!!
ed*s - there are only two possibilities for your monkeys
sorry 4 possibilities
there are more than that - does it come from the first e or second - or has my babble stopped working lol
oh ignore me i didnt think of using that letter!!!!!! sorry glan and ty
hints for the O?
i'm not sure where it starts but one letter is on the top row and the s is to the left of the 2nd row
Thionk of what British town criers shout Oy** and change the spelling a little
oy4/6 oy + birds build a n**t in the tree
I didn't think of that letter either frog - my monkey went logically and stumbled on it!
unforyunately my monkey can't find di5/12
TY now hows about the lower D?
di 5/12 plural of di 4/5
hrm. i have 2 Di4 and both are already plural...
i am missing that di4 - i have the other 2
wait, bottom D cant be Di...
lower d - de6 - hate
no, got that one
de6 leads to de8
There's another di: di 4/5 x 3
de5 - a god
NM, got the DY4. NBT and NBS for me!
what is NBS?
and do you have both dy4?
I think the one you're missing is di + sip a cup of *e* (and plural)
TY buff - that was what i was missing

Red have you ever seen a shuttle launch? Husband wants to go to the one in April
I missed out on one, so No I have never been in that town for one. The shuttle comes right over our town when it launches so I usually see it in the sky, but not the blast off part.
You should do it West!
he really wants to..wanted to be an astronaut when he was younger
Have you been to the Space Center before?
no we haven't
he put our names in for the drawing but we haven't heard
I found it to be really enjoyable. THe displays were fun and they have a "ride" called The space Shuttle Experience.
said he wants to feel the ground rumble
that sounds so neat..he'd love that
You will def feel the ground rumble. my friend lives over there and feels all the booms even when they land.
Plus, there are actually also many rockets being launched by private companies now from the space center.
AND, a wonderful wildlife preserve right there as well, for something different.
I never really thought about that
sounds like a plan even if we don't get to see the launch
One of my friends husbands is a "rocket scientist" and works for one of the private companies.
lots of motels in the area I imagine
Yes there are many.
You will get to See the launch...if you are anywhere in the area. It is HUGE. you dont have to be on the property.
this site gives the spots that create the best views.
http://www.launchphotography.com/Shutt le_Launch_Viewing.html
is Cape Canaveral (sp? ) a town or just the space center?
thanks for the link
this is so great just what we need
The town you probably want is Cocoa beach or something in merritt Island.
Cape Canaveral is I think just the space center...
we'll be making plans now that's for sure
thank you so much
haven't seen you for so long
No Problem. If it is convienient for you and I an d you want, we can have a babble meet up...
that would be soooo cool
since I was in CA when you came to RI
It is only about an hour from my house...I probably would avoid the launch day myself though, crowds.....
you're close to Orlando?
34 miles west of Orlando. I used to work in orlando..
we thought about spending a day at Disney but I think it's school vacation
There is Disney, Seaworld, and Universal. Disney is so big that you could probably still have a good time, or you could just go wander around Downtown disney...
wow it's changed since we were there took our son for his HS graduation in 1989
They have the Animal Kingdom park...
middle of June and boy was it hot !!
lots to see and do
I'll bet. April may be hot, but right now its been chilly all week.
ok, I must be off. Happy trip planning West!
we can finally see our backyard the snow is gone
came back from CA on Dec 30th to 19" and have had snow ever since
evening all
thanks Red you've been a great help
hi dan I'm going too

TIme for me to go... See everyone tomorrow.
Goodbye Mark Jones! I'll see you tomorrow in the log.
darn it I am still at 25 left. I think I should list.
I have 9 left from this morning but I am too tired.
i listed. hi kap
8 (yawn)
The only kind of listing I am doing is listing to one side.
Like a boat.
Oh sorry, I feel rather tired myself.
Clue for the ey 8? I am sure it starts with seeing organs.
the clue this morning was what's in your head and what's in your mouth
ey8/55 is sight organ plus te5/12 word redturtlehead
how do u play
hello oh, the help box above chat is very informative.
thanks
ah thanks, that gave me a bunch as I was missing the te ones.
Hello ohsuzyq!How are you doing?Welcome to the grid

I'm quitting with 8 left.
I now have 4 left...
and I am not quitting tonight.
go red gooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.
2 left. I am missing fishes.
then your monkeys will catch the fish
ahhh fireworks. Of to bed now for me.

I am still missing an 8 and 2 7's and don't feel like listing. congrats, red. good night.
Congratulations redturtlehead on fireworks! Hooray!

Hello jesdraggon! How are you doing?Welcome to grid
Hi lbdawger! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
just got home from work, min, how're you?
I am well.I am saving my last word for later on tonight
hi Min. i'm doing well, mostly lurking, how are you?
heh. i've just now shaken the first 44 out of the grid... slowing down a bit
I'm dreading taking the dog out to do his thing in the high winds and downpouring rain. It's nasty out there
es 8 clue please
es 8/45 word is es plus ending of numbing agent Jeff7
thanks, min
yw
novacaine's not there! lol
Numbing agent doctors use to perform surgery Jeff7.
if you put an before the es, you'd have the whole word for knocked out for surgery
not a specific drug, the category for drugs that knock you out.
I;m in the ballpark but I can't quite get it.....looking for an etic end which ain't there
it ends in a vowel
ty!
that did the trick :)
stats for the w, please?
wy 4/10
thankee
yw
hello all... done with grid.. just here to say hi

sometimes i hate living up here, $4.00 a pound for green pepper...
aww thats cute jes
yikes thats a lot crossy
best grow your own, crossy
but its too cold to grow a ny right now!
inside...they don't take up much space
price we pay for wanting to eat it year long.
you are probably right jes
there are a couple of pretty good books out there about "square foot gardening"
having a few plants in the house increases your air quality in the house too :)
ey8 please?
i already have one of those interesting herb pots going,the ones that are about 3 feet high and have little growing openings cut into the sides
two body parts jes
ey + whats in ur mouth
thanks, cos
got it from the first one, with a little pondering :)
ty cos
yw :)
cute my little pony, jes
thanks, dawg :)
what i really want to know is, who is Bruce and what did he do that so good?
4 bucks a pound for peppers,but they had real creamery butter on for 2 dollars a pound!(crossy grabbled 6) ;))
bruce is my domestic partner, and in this particular case, he made naan for me :)
can I please have a clue for the se 5, 10?
are those chili peppers or bell peppers, crossy?
ahhh, Bruce did good!
se + big weight
just regular green bell peppers
never mind, got it
thanks, jes
that is a bit spendy! although we're not that far behind on the price here. depends on the store you get them from and if they are "organic"
i am doing up calf livers coated in spiced crums and romano cheese with green pepper,shrooms and onions ;) (sorry to the grazers out there)
not a liver fan, but otherwise sounds good
for the wife and son(i also do not care for liver)
3 left, all to words
the to words stink!
make it chicken livers and vegan cheese and I am with you, cross -- LOL
you want clues
is the 7 a compound word involving play things?
hey all
hey stid! it's your grid :)
no
it is a superlative
Hi stidmama!How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
well, that'd be why i can't make a word like that work :) thanks
LOL so it is Jes! I didn't see that earlier (down to 44 already)
hello Min! how are you this fine evening?
thanks, speller, that's firewords :)
I am REALLY happy - going to help judge the state championships for high school speech this Saturday. I really really enjoy doing that
YAY jes!
yay jes!
is good to have weekend plans to look forward to :)
i judged the science fair at my parish school last month - really brought me back!
:-D and a cousin in Portland area has a piece of artwork in a show this weekend, so Sunday will wander down thataway with Mother.
I am well. I just came in from the high winds and rain with the dog. I am an annoyed dog owner and he is a smelly drown rat looking dog.It is SO nasty out there!
whoooo hooooo JES!!
hi stiddy hi speller
lol, poor Min.
hey LDB!
LOL Min
min,nest time,if it is raining and the dog meed walkies,kill 2 birds with one stone and soap him up real well before you take him out and he can walk and have a bath at the same time;))
He can never just go out and do his thing. He has to walk around and sniff every single square foot of lawn
anyone need clues?
That's a good idea crosshair. Might do that next time
sounds like a typical canine, Min. at least he doesn't insist of sharing your umbrella.
need that lone E in the middle row please? down to 35 and still don't have that tile
ey8, i think, stid
yep that would be it. thanks jes
NBT and 33. back soonish.
Now he's sitting in his chair looking all sad & annoyed because he's wet. He hates to be all wet. If he had a brain he would realize if he went right away he would not be so wet. I love him anyway even if he is stupid.
train him to go on command?
An ey8/55 is seeing organ plus te5/12 word stidmama
poor puppy
that why pocket dogs are better,in nasty weather ,you can just hold them out a open window and squeeze;)))
LOL crosshair!
heh. you could also litter box train them, crossy... then you wouldn't have to squeeze ;)
interesting,may have to try that some day...
know a couple of litter box trained dogs-a chihuahua and a poodle
off to watch bones. see you all tomorrow
must be both females,male dogs would be kicking the lotter clear across the room thinking they are outside
tc lbd
firewords! tx all cluers
Goodbye lbdawger! I will see you tomorrow in the log.
Congratulations dan2bit on fireworks!Hooray for you
thanks Min - how are you this evening?
g'night, dawg
grats, dan!
no, actually the poodle is a male
hello my dear friends
howdy, trif
howdy. nice icon dog
thanks. she needs a home
Hello Trifioso!How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
I am well dan2bit. I'm about to enter last word which I have been saving since 7:00 this evening dan2bit.
I am fine min, thanks for asking, as always.
I am done! I have fireworks! st8/45 was my last word
huzzah for min!!!!
hurrah, min
!
crossy is having a great time with kijiji.com.selling all my extra stuff;)) great response times;)
what kind of stuff are you selling?
Why is it better to sell there than on ebay crosshair?
just sold a pair of 17 inch crt monitors
cause it is local min catering to southern and central ontario
you can cater your sales to a clientelle that are within easy driving distance
Oh, okay; just wondering. I got some friends who sell their things on Craig's list. I want to sell a laptop,but the internet does not work on it.To me,a laptop with no internet is useless.Not sure how much to ask for it
2 left for me!
Go Trifioso go!
what make is it? and how old?
It is an HP and less than five years old. Got it when I first moved. It's still good for word processing though
i would start at 150 but be ready to settle for 100
Computer store told us it was not worth fixing laptop
cause you can go out right now and get a shiny new netbook for 250
FIREWORKS! woot woot
no,it is not,2 years and the things are obsolete
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dg3Pber zvXo&feature=relmfu Tim Minchin "Not Perfect" - amusing, to me, anyway
yaa for triff
yay trif!
Congratulations Trifioso on fireworks!Hooray for you
thanks all. need to sleep now, so poof.
Goodbye Trifioso! I will see you tomorrow in the chog
g'night, trif :)

Hello Dorens! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
Hello Pinikula!How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
That de 6/21 word means hates Dorens.
Goodnight to my fellow babblers!I'll see you tomorrow
thats it for me my babble buddies.tc and have a good night
poof!
Hi Everybody. Long day; 88 left. I won't finish tonight
hey Nef.
hi stid; are you settling down after your big talk?
DH's Aunt Jean (the one who broke both wrists last year) is in the hospital with heart failure tonight. I spent most of the day there;
yep. did almost NO work today. Played with 7th graders and spent the afternoon with Mother and the fellows. Felt good. Class tomorrow, concert tomorrow night, judging a state speech tournament Saturday... LOL will be glad to get back into student teaching so I can rest!
oh no NEF! I am so sorry (((hugs))) how is DH taking it?
he's okay. Aunt Jean is upset because she doesn't want to be in the hospital and keeps saying "Why did this happen?" I keep telling her it's because she didn't tell me she was not feeling well last week(she didn't call me and she denied and problems
oh gee. stubborn old people! *exasperated mama look*
I'd seen she was short of breath (also known as SOB) last week and she insisted she wasn't; that she was just doing some deep breathing exercises
ah. my grandmother was like that -- seemed incapable of admitting she was in any kind of distress.
Yeah. And she is a real stubborn Irish-Swede.
Yep. So did stidg inherit that gene too?
Because if she did; you gotta tell her that it's a bigger bother racing to the hospital thinking she'd had a huge stroke instead of letting you know ahead of time
I hope not, Nef. I have talked with her a lot about how difficult it was to get good medical care for both her parents because they didn't talk honestly with their docs or anyone else.
Let's hope she has some sense
help plz for ey8,55
My heart tells me Grandad had at least a few more years if he had only told the doc the cough medicine didn't fix the cough (cancer)
and that Granny might not have had such a bad stroke if she had told her doc (or anyone else other than her sister) about the TIAs she had been dealing with apparently for several years.
oh, my! Sharing that info would have helped both of them
anyway... one can only do so much and then they have to let other people make their own decisions.
hi vanilla, sorry, I don't have ey8 yet (but will look)
tx
it's a compound nef and vanilla -- what you see with + what you eat with
ey -- sight organ and incisors

piroque is lodged in the brain now
as I said, get used to it or get him his own phone number --?
nope. just going to keep being really obnoxious...
LOL! Been there, done that stid! My son had one girl who would call at 1 or 2 AM when he was just in 8th grade!
(maybe he already has his own number on a cell phone?)
interruptions work well sometimes
cell phones don't work here. oh no, nef! *sprays anti-midnight-caller repellent*
hi all

hi nrk 1
He wasn't even "going" with her! She had a crush and he didn't care for her calling him all the time; but he was too polite to tell her to bug off

I revel in being uncool
hi nrkii

breaking --- police have raided charlie sheen's house a hour ago
wow -- I saw that he was suing the 2 1/2 people.
he needs psychiatric help.
he apparently called the police,said he was gonna commit suicide.. and when they came.. they found him at his table with his lawyer eating hamburgers
he sure does, but I guess he doesn't think so
I read his father --- bless his heart -- is trying to get him committed through the courts.
Martin must be very worried
did you see that editorial in one China newspaper that blasted Charlie and said he was an embarrassment to his father who was once President of the US lol
i wish Jed Bartlet was a real President but.. dont they do fact checking over there
yes, saw that -- oops!
maybe its charlie
attempts to helpus forget about the economy lol
language problem? lack of US TV?
language problem is my guess
I have Rachel Maddow on
she talking about wisconsin?
i donated to the WI Dem Party Recall Efforts today
indirectly
good for you, cos
speaking of politics.. im running for a scholarship to attend a political conference.. i need votes! it just takes a minute
http://tinyurl.com/4letl7c
I have letters from WW2 times when my imprisoned dad's Chinese colleagues were writing to my mother reporting that they had heard he was alive -- their English was impeccable -- better than most native English speakers nowadays.
hmm thats interesting
wow, cos, didn't realise you were deaf -- of course, you don't have to hear to babble!
lol yes...
I'd be glad to support you but it looks as if it's only for US people...asks for zip code and our Canadian postal code wouldn't work.
ah thanks anyway! :)
I'm sure lots of other babblers would though
ill ask when theyre over the flip!
do that!
hm wheres everyone!
i am here cos
there you are lol
wouldnt be flip if you werent here asking for stats i need :)
i thought i might be the one you were looking/waiting for lol
