this is just too much -- see you tomorrow :)
wow, red boxes gone!!
can't get rid of my red boxes yet
can't get rid of my red boxes yet
halfway in a re4 struggle
wtg dart
no red boxes for a minute... hi dart, hi flosey, before it happens again
i am using lickety to take the guesswork out, because so many of my words aren't being accepted first time around
hi josh
hi vol
how's your boo boo dart?
i could use a glass with some nice sp7 on the rocks dealing with this
think i might have cracked/broken a rib or 2
ooooh no!!! When Dan had several cracked ribs, it was terribly painful, hard to breathe, move, etc. How did you fall again?
tripped and took the last 8 stairs in a few bounces off various body parts
I second that josh
aww now I remember... I remember when Lindz took a similar tumble... she only broke her foot though, no stitches, no cracked ribs... you need to be really careful about lifiing anything heavy, if you cracked ribs... you have to make sure they don't move, slide apart, or break completely
it's like a permanent 2 o'clock burp with this grid
no kidding dart. i wonder what is wrong
grid could be fun without all this junk
thought i was doing something wrong

........
I'm giving up on this for now, hoping it will be mended for tomorrow although I won't have enough time to do much.

well, I did stick around a bit longer and whoopee -- managed nbt!

i am trudging along with help from lickety
Is the flip late?
I've still got red boxes :(
Oh, what's up with the server?
spirit
Hello everyone. Just started and having issues down here too. Looks like it must be the babble server playing up again
that is the question of the hour, kaplan
lots of long words, I see...
Here we are.
I wonder what will happen at hiccup time!
sirpest
you'd think that someone who makes their money off having lots of mo5s would be a word, like it's hotel equivalent hotelier
all these great words and no go>

hi again, had to refresh to get rid of page full of red boxes - again

hi Flosey & Frog
goooooooooooooooooooood morning fellow babblers xxx

hi there FF
spied
ty hoot
any time
and then there's the red boxes.........
no point in being awake at 2 am if the grid isn't going to work
AND it blew up my profile info again!!!
let's see...
we survived!
red boxes again
groan
I think this means I have to go to bed.
Did anyone email Jamie?
DrG is aware of the issue
fireworks thanks to lickety and sheer force of will
Congrats Josh! that's persistence!
could not have done it without lickety. just to be able to see where my gaps were, due to 1/3rd of my words not being accepted
We are back?
im still getting red boxes
im still getting red boxes
rider
oops sry.
YEp HI
YEp HI
Oh, this is silly - and it's not even fun.
been at it for 3 hrs and only got 85 words.
stir
at least I can get a word in here lol
what manner of cruelty is 510 AGAIN??!!
is anyone else having trouble? Technically, I mean. I keep getting thrown out of babble and into my email
my words are not showing or my points
Babble is having server issues. DrG is attempting to fix
it is so slow. Oh good, I just emailed him
Load up lickety when you can
what do you mean, herin?
Use the list
Clues are up
TY Lickety
thanx lickety
THanks lickety
No i meant TECHNICALLY slow. takes forever to add a word, then red boxes everywhere
hi Rose, how are things going for you, better I hope
Umm....there's a huge delay in what I type and what shows up. Gus I'd better wait till later and try again?
*groan* if i see the red wall of death once again, i think i might just SCREAM!!!
"guess"
Jayk, we are all in the same boat. Babble's server is playing up again
of all days!
hey lynn. much better, thanx for asking
very very pleased Rose
yikes!
enter your words in lickety to save for later.
don't get too excited, ray. site is playing up
great idea roncook, ty!
Even the server can't handle two 500 word grids in a week.
Even the server can't handle two 500 word grids in a week.
help! I put a bunch of words into lickety. now how do i get them back into here?
have you got Expert?
are we back or are the red boxes of death just waiting around the corner??
No
not running smoothly yet Dachef
m
red boxes of death are back.
You are going to have to type them into Babble Jayk. But do email Lickety for a copy of Expert - next time you will be able to send the words to Babble in a flash
so lynxxx, do i have to re-enter them all?
Too much think I'll leave this one!!!!
yes Jayk
hi, all--i'm pretty new here, and have heard you can type directly into Lickety and have words appear both places, but just using the "add" button doesn't seem to work. What's this Expert you're talking about, lyunxx? Is that what i need?
Yes Foam, email lickety, he will send to you - easy to instal
ty!
By the way, love the flower, not available down here that I can find
ty! seal
ty! seal sealed
oops--so sorry!
where is "down here"?
Australia - see my flag
duh--now i see!
I'm sure you have gorgeous native plants there--I'm into naitve plants, and foamflower is native here--New England
Red boxes back. I quit!
Good morning/evening all.
I think dr god might need a new server... lots of hiccups and red boxes lately

hi Volley
Hi Haz too - messages dissappear
too many red bars of death
I'm not asking much- a loaf of bread, a book of verse, and Babble beside me in the wilderness...
crap!
g'day, Babblers.. no time for all the stuttering here, will log off and try again later (crossing fingers all will be well)
hi/bye Aloy
so many words. The red bars will not defeat us! We will fight to the end!
hi all, babble is wonky today
hi all, babble is wonky today

Me too Sue. That's why I'm stunned that Une got 387 before taking a break.
Still not working
ive got 94, but its all been during the buddy time. no idea which words may have been bounced instead of being accepted...
omg..no wonder babble has been down.dr g broke the thing with another 500 grid;(
What's "buddy time"?
HEY! I was just able to enter 4 words! I think it's fixed!!!

(((Une))) good morning Hello Dachef
jeez . . . hope you're right, hoot!

no Une, not a bit. I am guessing you did?
boy, did we ever!
well even my chat went right in , si I'm guessing all fixed. Just don't understand why it kills my profile info
it still winter like here, only in the 30's and some snow showers
window-rattling thunderboomer -- had to sedate the one dog that loses her mind when lightning's flashing and ground is rumbling!
Not me - went over us . Did get heavey rain once in a while
Une, did it scare the pups?
oh bless the poor dog
Ziggy takes to going under the bed or the basement when we have storms
she's very groggy this morning :-)
aw, poor ziggy . . .

Hi everyone
howdy annie
roit
oops
(((((Annie)))))
crap
*peeks into chog* are we all fixed?
Do I have to retype all the words I had? I should be below 200 left and instead I see 309 left. Oy!
Annie did you use LIckety?
Hi crossy, ((Mom)))
I used Babble Expert
Oy indeed
with the big one,s i always c+p ly finished words,just in case around half way
click on "send words to babble" and it should move them over
that is what I did this morning for my mere 101 words I found
do you work with Lickety in a separate tab?
Hi Rob, the lickety expert is sent by email by licketysplit
it sits on my desktop and i just click it when I want to play
how do you sign up for it?
nada, nothing happened, still 309 left...I told myself the day we had 506 words that over 400 I will not attempt the grid and here Isit with 510.
Rob email Lickety at licketysplitaus@gmail.com and ask him to send you expert
Annie are the words checked off on Lickety's side?
just a morning request to please vote for Solar Crepes! http://tinyurl.com/4d73kev
some of the words are
2 500 grids in 1 week...oh dear
Mom, Annie is beautiful ( not me, the dog)
Thx. I just sent the email. Are you working on expert but still can chat?
ok, go to the bottom of Lickety and under bulk grab click "Get all added words"
You can still chat on Expert
wow, where have I been? I knew nothing about Expert
Yes, Rob, the babble shows up as if you were on playbabble.com and there is a side you can move to see clues
I would love to stay. Maybe I will be back later and it will all be straightened out. Bye dear babblers
hope it works on a Mac
oh ANnie, don't go
we can fixt this
that I don't know Rob
((Annie))
Mom, this is a message to do my laundry (LOL)
*poof*
lol Annie, I should be cleaning the bathroom but here I sit
well heck if Annie can pull herself away to do the laundry, I can too.
be back after the bathrooms are cleaned
((Hugs))
i do not know what is worse,killing of a 150 word grid and having time on my hands to get up to no good,or a monster like this where you grind away untill you lose yer mind...
hints for the solo upper-left i?

and more than one eight-tentacled creature
eva1 your friend is gaining ground! when does the poll close?
ok, this one's gonna have to be done in stages. 164 down, 346 to go. whew
Good morning/afternoon all. This is an exercise in patience if nothing else.
howdy haz,yup another grid grind
especially when the site wasn't working, haz!
I've got the words, it's getting them entered that's the killer.
TY hurshy!
seems to be doing ok for the moment
pt,plurals,gerrund,just slam every ending on everything,latin everything etc
crossy, im not sure when it closes, but unfortunately, i think it is soon. she is gaining ground, though!
gerund? ?
Yes, keeping fingers crossed.
yes hirsh,ty for the correction my bad
Pas de gerund.
anyone know if there are PT or PS, or can i not bother looking for any of those?
No pt or ps.
i have made it my mission to type all in lower canse and to never use a comma or a period just to mess with the grammar nazi,s hehe but i love you hurshy
Gerund? I'm not seeing the gerund ending, hmm.
great!
i type in all lower case most of the time too :)
is anyone here?
and i know there is no g,that was just an example
Yes, Nono.
i had to refresh my page it was still showing all the red doom messages from earlier
good morning all
howdy nono;)
I am sure going to learn my i words today
the i's not too bad ruru, only a couple of different ones
these P words are rough... R's i got 70 with not much trouble, P's i've struggled to get 50
i am afraid to look at the word totals for now,just pounding away on the keyboard....
Is the game behaving now? it was bad this morning.
every time i see the name poodletoes it makes me smile;)
It's behaving for the minute.
thank you crossie
Don't tempt fate Haz! Greetings all.
I had everything crossed when I said it, making for difficult typing.
((FM))
Trying to get words entered while the sellotape is holding firm.
lol will let you off then. Was looking back at the log and it seems the server prob has been an issue pretty much since the flip. Hey crossy(())
hi FM
bad dr_g,have to stop using those intel chips for the servers and use amd!:)..he will strike me dead if he see,s that lool
Hi nono ROFL crossy.
yes FM therapy appointments are now on the rise for babblers all over the world
i tried to see my therapist,but when i got there he was playing babble on his i-pad!
Hey ruru! *grin* I still can't get back into sudoku :(
We Brits just keep calm and carry on.
Huzzah!
too funny Crossy!
hi all
howdy T.O
Hello, TO!
gm TO
stiff upper lip and all that rot eh haz? lol
I finally finished sudoku but had to solve it twice as it didnt save the first time
and make lots of cups of tea of course! Hello TO!
hi TO
love the Icon TO
It's cheaper and less boring for the therapist.
i am home sick and there was no babble....
dammit..forgot my tea was steeping! brb!
OMG, it opened! Are the red death squares finished?
awe ((TO))
That's a nuisance. What's worse than no babble at all is intermittent babble.
i sound like a frog
Hi ruby, so far so good but am not convinced it is back to stay.
we hope so Ruby
maybe you should kiss a prince, TO
{{FM}}

I'm afraid to chat as I might put a word in by mistake.... :(
I'm so frustrated, three s words I can't find to transfer across to the word list... Keep calm and carry on, keep calm and carry on.
i am finally caving in ruby and asking lickety for babble expert so i can lessen that problem
Haz, droopy teens?
here are the 9's i have so far: co9, pr9 x 3 if anyone has the other would love to know about it
still looking for that teenage hangout
de9 - those who sneer
The one who is most like an imp would be impiest, would they not?!?!?
Teenage hangout for when they're full of angst. Or a place where you might keep something to wash the floor.
thanks, and yes, you would think they would, car
i have a de9/66
But like an imp is impish.
oohhh, MY mo8/50 is different - it's pt of a piece/bit

Hello, jmc.

Found im 8!
di8 isn't a medical procedure, hurshy, it's a punctuation to signal two vowels being separated.
is the medical procedure similar but with a U, maybe?
Yes, that would be more like it.
yes, it is. well it can be a medical thing that just happens, or possibly a procedure.

ir6/18 inflammation of the colored part of the eye?
less than 300 left hahah
271 here !
im7 take off end of im8
Children dressed in old fashioned clothes who make a lot of noise might be st8 in ro7/36
sc8/50 - heaven for men in kilts
lol
that was very funny Haz
le7 ... sounds kind of like a spotted big cat, but different vowel arrangements... ends in eliminate (get *** of)
Good, I like funny clues.
pr9/60 the winner of the Elvis Presley widow lookalike contest.
ty did not even have to look at grid for that one hursh
Haz, I don't get your old fashioned noisy clue
thanks hurshy
ah one of those alt spellings of "sellers" starting with P is in the grid... don't actually know if it means something else...
The old fashioned clothes for babies should be the clue, or maybe they're a British thing. If you have ro4/6 - to play, build on that.
It rhymes with st5/14 - to walk about noisily
Okay, got them both, ty
ty haz
You're welcome.
yes it as, once i got it:/
still looking for kiltwearers' heaven
Crossy...did you hear the news about Denny's this morning?
pe6 what non-regularly employed doctors get paid, minus last letter
Kiltwearer's heaven, run together the man who wears a kilt with the ending of an idealised place, normally beginning u*****
pe5 and pe6 two words that seem to rhyme with a country where the US fought a "war" in the 50's
well sc8 is something i mostly lack - no womder!
Speaking of NBT, I need the right o and the top left i and o
plural of 8 legged sea creature OC 6/24
hurshy - does it rhyme with any english accent or a british one?
ty haz
i'm not actually british, so...
You're welcome, TO.
im 4/6....little rascals
no, have that i, it's the two letters left of that
It's pronouced the same in either accent.
pr7 take the kind of calories you get from meat and change last letter. remove that letter for a 6, plural the 7 for an 8.
sorry..wrong i....old name for japan is 5/10
have the o, just need the left i
top left i is is5/10
car.ee, what is the news on Denny's, something about bacon?
A new section of their menu featuring bacon items...including ice cream sundae topped with bacon!
ty car for the i. I still need a couple more, both vowels, for NBT
crossy...a man ahead of his time :)
GAG... Bacon topped ice cream
thanks for the pr's hurshy
I think I'll pass on that sondae
well, i guess i am not so sicj that i cannot clean today
sundae *
all that salt, on sweet ice cream, I'll pass

hurshy, i have four u ords all having to do with b ball officials.does the final u come from that also?
i don't know, i am doing the list abc... let me check

you have to treat it as a verb
i did - i added ed as i suggest for all words today

if you can have mo 5/10, pl and pt -- don't see why you can't have "one who"
stats for the left hand o, please?
if i had mo5/10 i would speculate...
and for the mischievious child, why not comparatives? -ier and -iest?
If you mean the right hand O, it is OC 6/24
gosh i am so sick of seeing that viral twin video
have to run -- dentist
you are right car - ty
YVW
Because there's no such word as impy, it's impish.
taking a break, bbel
bbl
Bye, TO.
bye TO
so then the comparative would be impishest? Sounds wrong to me.
No, it would be more impish and most impish for the superlative.
most impish not everything gets a new ending
Or most implike?
hey check out ths definition for imp - new to me 1. To graft (new feathers) onto the wing of a trained falcon or hawk to repair damage or increase flying capacity. 2. To furnish with wings
always thought it was originally more like a leprechaun
finally got the MO 5 that was referred to earlier!!!
i have returned
Chores all done?
o4
i have n't yet car! lol
Think what runs a car....
oh i was thinking about that but didn't see it until just now! ty

<-----Is now singing "Sister Christian"
al6/24 - looks like a bicycle or something for 'The Greatest' boxer (and plural)
ae, ai,al not really grat combos
hmm got the 7 and 6
Wow...that X is really helpful today!
is it working better than this morning?
Babble is working beautifully.
*wonders about the tone of car's voice*
sarcastic font
Can you imagine if there was a N in this grid?!?!? What would the word count be then? (not necessarily in the place of the X)
what is the highest #of words ever?
Something well over 500, I think.
*sticks fingers in ears* lalalalalalala
biggest was 599 words
I certainly didn't do one that size, maybe it was before my time or when I was on holiday.
two 500_ in one week, is that a record?
500+
not sure when it was i dont think i did it either
I don't remember having over 500 grids so close together.
ah go the mo8
*got
ty car
Thank you for getting "Sister Christian" stuck in my head too!
according to lickety the 599 was in Nov. of '02
Which one, jmc?

I hadn't started babbling in 2002. My life was bleak and colourless.
There are two connected to cars, change the final letter.

sure
hello jes
?? what happend to my question
my cat has dry skin, any suggestions?
is jes a vet?
fish oil
should I just pierec a capsule or find it in liqud form?
pierce even
probably can get flavored omega fatty acid supplements from a local veterinary clinic--we have some here that are beef flavored, or a liquid that's salmon flavored.
or you can pop one of the capsules, yes.
ok, ty will check it out
no problems
evening all. jess, holly, is a beauty. if i did your job i would end up taking all the animals home...wouldn't please hubby!!
yes ruby,jes is our resident pet vet
hello lilliann
hi ruby :)
hello jes, I have two chow chows
thanks, lilli. she finally found a home last week; i should update my profile at some point
hi ruby
all my pets have been from rescue centres and i normally go fot the old or the ones with problems that no-one wants
aww, glad to hear jes
i approve of this plan, lilli :)
that's because you're a good person, lilliann! I get terribly inbred but beautiful dogs, too delicate by half!! dumb me
all out cats are rescue kitties,i mean why buy one when there are 450 at all times waiting for a home at our rescue centre?
my cats have all been from shelters
can't think of a good reason, crossy
saw a beautiful male russian blue in there last week....
love russian blues, sweet cats
so do i but hubby doesn't always!! most of my cats have had bad lives and been mistreated so i feel i have to give them a good life. hubby moans but he spoils them just as much as i do! :)
but anyways,i must head to work,tc all and happy babbling...poof!
ty ruby, and no you're not dumb, you're a very sweet person
exactly crossy!
bye and tc crossy
I saw a photo of a Tibetan dog that weighed 180 kg (is that possible) it looked like a chow on steroids x10
russian blue, in a rescue centre?? my god, they are pedigree cats, and alot of money usually!
{{crossy}}
somebody in China paid 1.5 million for him
yikes that is a lot of money
what???
speaking of cats... ours seem to be more needy in the last few weeks... demanding to be fed, petted , talked to, let in and out.. just a little diffrnt an more than usual....... has anyone else noticed this about their cats ?
dollars, not yuan
bye, crossy
they show up in rescue once in a while, lilli. i have an egyptian mau that came from a humane society.
it was beautiful but not THAT beautiful!
there are several pure-bred specific rescues out there too.
actually sammy, yes, both mine have been like that! wonder if it's to do with the moon being close to the earth at the moment??
i once received a russian blue kitten a coworker found under a car in the parking lot.
thanks for confirming that lil... i was thinking it was just me
mine has been like that too, sammys, figured it was the moon
my youngest cat has started coming under the covers and lying right into my body. would never do it before!
finally half way, brb, laundry
maybe they are trying to tell us something lil
that is very interesting about the moon and yur cats!
and my male has become very attention seeking and loving, not normally like that either!
i don't know if that is why ruby but alot of things have happened with the weather and that is because of the moon apparently so why not animals behaviours as they tune into things like that don't they?
lilliann, i had a male cat that used to sleep under the covers, especially when it was cold.
my other cats use to ,but not these 2 usually and even my male will kutch up next to me outside the covers and he's not like that!
chuckie used to sleep with me.. had his own pillow and blanket, but sammy? never... late4ly sammie comes in my room and "talks" to me and sleeps on the bottom of the bed
right, best away to cook tea. i was going out for a meal with hubby but f.i.l has dodgy tummy. bbl for my last 50
sammie is a rescued feral cat and it took almost six months before he would let us even touch him
mine have their own beds, blankets but wanting to be close to us and as you say sammy, talking alot too! lol
bbl
found 286 words but that's enough for tonight

Not going there Kazz, no, no. Not touching the comment about your husband's dongle. Uh-uh. : P

It's a thingy that gives u mobile internet
hi all

Hi jjmc

bye kazz
You know it's a bad day at work when you don't have the wherewithal to Babble
je!
That's why I retired
hi all (lunch time)...
jmc...you sound like me...
...I even made sure none of my student workers 'start' at noon this term so I could actually have lunch!
hi folks - I'm here to relax (!) after a weird day -
lol bichon
hi jbv ;)
hi jbv. how are you?
hi TO and jbv
anyone far enough along to give s word clues?
hi pini
I had to go to Motor Vehicles, passed a horrible car accident on the way, get there, the office is closed because some lady is having a baby inside !! - anyway, now I'm home babbling and all is well
well pretty soon i won't be working her so i won't have this as a problem
I don't think I'd be of any use yet, TO
I'm working on the s's now, TO - but I have the list open, if I can help
eating on the other hand. . . .
definitely a weird day, jbv! :) (boy or girl?)
lol sorry jbv but that's a hoot
hello
hi phaeton
I don't Pini - I left before they brought her out
hi phae
*I don't know
* hrmph *
:o)
pretty funny, jbv
I had to transfer the title of the car from my husband's name to my name - they are going to charge me $60 -
looking for se6/21 #3
se...get some **** and relaxation
wow, jbv ... so unfair when you're "keeping it in the family"
Actually, they're pretty good most days - th ehorror stories of the DMV were from long ago, I'll go back tomorrow
nope...not right one..sorry
wish me luck
* lots of luck and a pot of gold *
phae was that for me?
i seek the se6/21 after those who paste shut
yes Owl, but it wasn't what you were looking for
brb *sigh*
se 6/21 - there are 2, both have the same letters
one sounds like Bobby Rydell
i have that ty jbv
I mean like his name, not how he sings :)
so the other one is an anagram
hmm maybe lickety is wrong
ihave se4/4, se6/21, se6/18, se7/28, missing se6/32 then the one you just clued
se6/21...se ***s of March has *eprechauns
sorry missing se6/21
6/32?
I don't see a 6/32
ok ty i have the one just clued nby jbv and phae, so i am wondering if lickety is wrong. it shows an se6/21 just ahead of the one you both just clued
what's the one before the one phae just clued?
it's an anagram of the one you have - just rearrange the letters
ty
se + a word that sounds like how we used to use the telephone
hi all. jbv, what a day, but atleast it's a day to talk about now and in months to come to people! :)
phantom: computer
right, lillian :) but I think I'd rather forget it!
* missing something *
don't blame you!
so this anagram is an sei word?
TO the one you're missing starts with the S on the right 2nd row from bottom
nm
all i see on lickety is an se7/28 just before the one i just clued
nm
hi all! just got to 50% woohoo
Owl...clue the second se6/21
whoo hooo harry
well done, HH
I feel like taking a nap :)
* blink * 15 words that start with the first co4? crap!
* sigh *
well, I was wrong in that; there are even more! :(
I may take HH's lead and go take a nap to be better prepared to tackle this monster.
later all
Holy $%&^!

Hi, lilliann. I'm overwhelmed by the 500 plus word grid but it gets more frightening when I come upon lists of words beginning with co or st that seem to go off into the horizon. Idon't know that many words, I think.
the server has been acting up lilli
nbt - thanks everyone
nbs too :)
i'm sure you know more words than you thing stidgemere as i have a really bad memory and it's surprising what weird words i remember from here, it's just the easy ones i can't get!! go figure!!lol

finished at last what a dreadful babbling day
*think

Congrats DTins. Sorry the babbling got you talking to yourself.

That is a long time but then the grid is huge.
dammmmmmmmm snowing like crazt here... a real blizzard!!
the ground turned white in less than 5 minutes
i've been on 8 hrs but that is because of all the blooming problems!!
(((((Lilliann)))) hello dear, I am going to the post office tomorrow. :-)
Hi everyone
not nice sammy! we had sun today on and off but more off and only 9 degrees
whew! finished - fireworks here - can I help with clues?
snowing where?
congrats ((JBV))
Are you in California? The Sierra Nevadas have had enormous amounts of snow.
JBV Congrats!!
JBV, 292 of them :-)
hi ((Mom)))
LOL
no snow here, but it's still cold
(((mom))) nice to see you. ah, lovely, don't forget to email how much i owe you for everything :)
yay! wtg jbv!!
oh Lillilann, it is such a small amount, it isn't even worth mentioning
hi mom
((TO)) hello :-)
oh no, mom please i can't expect you to pay for it, the postage won't be cheap!
the postage will be on the package. But really now, I offered to send it. I wouldn't expect you to pay for it
i wanted it and you have got it and are sending it so i expect to pay for it :)
and geez, what if you hate it
there is no arguing with me, i always get my way!! :)lol
**backing off** lol
if i hate it i'll give it to the neighbours!! lol
lol Lilliann
The recipe did come through, didn't it?
no, seriously now, you have gone out of your way for me so i want to pay what you have paid for everything.
i didn't see it yesterday. when did you send it?
the same night we talked about it .... what was that? Saturday
Friday night
i don't think it was saturday night as i was out
i'll go and have another look
it was Friday night
hmm, i have avoided gong out all day but think maybe i need to do so for meds
oh TO, still not feeling any better?
Lilliann had my emails sent to the junk drawer :-)
my chest hurts. last two times at dr they said they no longer treat sinus infections, just symptoms. so i did not go
so i think maybe mucinexfor that?
Have you tried the Neti Pot TO? and definitely Mucinex
We like the mucinex D since it has the decongestant
yes the dr recommends.
oh Sea, that sounds disgusting. Don't like anything in my nose
i really should have gone before rush hour. now i want to finish this
i actually do not know what i have except i would swear it it bacterial not viral
it is a shame that gone are the days of the drugstore making deliveries
I thought so too Mom, but and 82 year old lady highly recommended and I now swear by it..it starts working immediately
that was my job, Mom, when I was a kid
al 6-7 combo, please?
My aunt worked in the drugstore, so we got to know the pharmacist and he hired my sister and me when we were still very young - we both kept the job all through high school,
these last 6 are just murder
al 6 - Cassius Clay + foot suffix
and plural
al + zebras and skunks are str****; pl
I need chocolate brb
ty babrab
does mucinex help the chest pain?
found them mom, tyvm. can i use something else than buttermilk? and all purpose flour? we have plain and selfraising so don't know which one to use?
HI Babble Rabble ((hugs))
hope you feel better soon TO
what are you making, lil?
hi BR
Lilliann, I would use plain flour. I would use the buttermilk if it is available since it is so thick
you don't taste it in the bread. (I hate buttermilk)
Or you could sour regular milk
I think you use vinegar for that
down to 2

sorry i was talking to hubby
what are you cooking? banana bread??
Hi Mr. Lilliann
Hi Snags
hi Mom
he says hi back mom :) he's busy watching masterchef!
oh no, i don't want to refresh but i think babble is not registering a word i entered
hi snags
:-)
can i use regular full fat milk or any milk?
I suppose so Lillliann, I have not tried it that way before, I have always used the buttermilk
but it is only 5 tablespoons, wouldn't think it would make that much difference
that's a pain in the butt (excuse french) TO, that happened to me most of the day which is why i'm having to put in words i already did!!
ok, so i'll try it with normal milk and plain flour. do i need vinegar?
no I dont think i would use the vinegar, might make it taste funny
I will have to try it next time with regular milk
My mom loves buttermilk so I have a way of getting rid of what I don't use.
di 8, please?
What do you think TO? Do you think Lilliann would be ok to use just regular milk in the bread?
there's a di 8? Oh geez. Hi Nan, sorry I don't have it
which di 8?
welll i entered every mo6 and had them all so here goes...what't that,mom? hat are you making?
there is only one in lickety's list
well we drink semi and skimmed milk here, i use to drink soya milk but stopped as at the time hubby lost job and we couldn't afford it as it is alot more expensive than dairy milk and i never went back. plus i don't drink alot of milk now, just cook with it
Banana Bread. The recipe calls for 5 tbs buttermilk. Lilliann want to know if using regular milk would be ok
extend the di 7 -- -great dislike
probably, but you can sour it with vinegar
wrong one __ _
so it needs to be sour?
are you looking at the de's babrab?
does it have leavening? i think the acid works to leaven, with naking soda instead of baking powder. but i agree with snags
di + poetic before + short for a female sibling
hey
ty babrab
it takes baking soda
This place still has it's glitches. I tried entering that di8 earlier and it wouldn't take it.
hey mom
time for a break before tackling the es's
we have baking powder here but never heard of baking soda, is that the same thing?
hi Jeffreyrodgers
I will send you some baking soda, Lilliann
oh no Lilliann not the same thing
we use baking soda for homemade biscuts
Fireworks! :::: Drops Dead:::: *POOF*
congrats Judi
wow judi................. wtg
we have bicarbonate of soda and baking powder, one of them must be the same??
no lil.it is sodium bicarbonate, you must have it. also called bicarbonate of soda
is there anything else you need from the recipe that you don't have over there?
yay judi!! wtg!
it makes the baled o
goods rise
Congrats Judi on fire works. The dropping dead part--no fireworks or congrats for that.
ah, bicarbonate of soda!
and fireworks btw
oh wait
TO, fireworks!!! Congrats!
way to go TO!!!!! Congrats and roses for you
we use bicarbonate of soda for biscuits here
i think it is the same thing
Wow, congrats TO!
yay wtg TO!!
do u use it to clean off the battery terminals under the hood of your car??
wtg TO
i mus tgo get some meds, ty for the help all
((TO)) feel better soon
don't know snag, never used it for that. buit i think it is the same thing we just name it back to front and different than you! lol
Snags, my husband does
bye TO - feel better
hope you feel better soon TO, gentle hugs and tc
lol probably so.............

thanks BR for the di word

Or you could by the dry buttermilk and always have it on hand. Keeps forever in the fridge after it's opened. Look for Saco brand with the powdered milk

I was doing much better last nite battling the red bars, this morning I am not seeing anything
apart from the slimey mess left behind!! lol
red bar-itis, for sure
so frustrating, the red bars
bet it is more frustrating for DrG - not knowing what is causing it
he must be tearing his beard out
what red bars?
i've wondered if a minor DDOS is happening.
i did better this afternoon lynn after the red bars apart from the fact that all the words i added to lickety list haven't gone in today. i couldn't add them into the gris as it kept coming up red on chat so i put them in list but they haven't all gone in so i''m having to go through all my list now
couldn't Babble this morning, cos.. babble-interruptus
You don't have Expert Lil?
what is a DDOS DC?
ah last night at flip it was impossible.. ohh you mean the red bars saying word cannot be added try again?
i had to deal with that last night so i gave up
yes, that's what i've been using but the words wouldn't all go in lynn
yup, those awful things, cos
yes cos
Yes - it went on for hours Cos
but it happened to me the last 500 odd grid this week
si
And they won't go accross properly now Lill - that's odd
dedicated denial of service (attack)
i put it down to the number of words in the grid, but last time, no-one else seemed to have the same problem!
Speaka de English Seain. DDOS is distributed denial of service attack.
ooh, that sounds bad
distributed, yes, not dedicated. sorry :) ty, molly
Sounds very nasty DC
i've worked in tech support long enough i forget now and again.
on that note, i'm going to go cook something based on a mirepoix. Back in a bit.

Mirepoix is a mixture of chopped up onions, carrots and celery. You learn such things being married to a French person. I always told him it was just a froo-froo way of saying "chopped vegetables".

Do not like them, Cos I am....

I do not like them by a house, I do not like them with a mouse.
And watch the mouse, because if you give him a cookie, he will probably want some milk.

Hello BabbleRabble. Nice to 'see' you. :-)

Only the last 500 gave me some trouble
Hello, Soodle
lol BR did you finish?
Moooooooooove over RuRu, JMC is in punning mode....
Yeo
whoo hoo BR!
soodle is offering Irish Cream all around!
Got a lot easier when the server put the words I found in the list.
Lucky cow!
hmmm .. irish cream with a nice splash of bushmills. or just bushmills :)
i heard there were some issues earlier today
No one will ever convince me that mixing liquor and dairy products is a good idea.
you are horning in soodle :-(
issues here?
white russians - yum
ooo warm milk and brandy is loverly on a cold winter's night
there were massive issues on here last night and this AM
Y'all know that stuff curdles in your stomach, don't you. Gag.
I try to stay out of my stomach
Baileys, Southern Comfort, crushed ice and fresh cream. AKA Irish Comfort. 'Twould warm the cockles of your heart....
good choice BR
Overall BR, that is a very good plan.
technical issues or personal issues?
and mussles alive alive-O
technical lots of red bars of death
Oh Soodle. All those Irish people who make The Knot would whack you on the backside for that.
I had to laugh at Dr God's reference to temper tantrums
i missed that should i go back read the archive?
*Goes to get my wheelbarrow*
No JMC, the error message you got from Dr. God when the site crashed referred to the server having temper tantrums.
the red menace was active.
oh
I would have said sh*t fits, but then we all know I have no couth.
When I tried to log in earlier, I got a message saying the server was having temper tantrums. I had visions of a 3 year old server laying on the floor, flaying its arms and legs.
lol
Em..flailing...
lol wish i had seen that
oh yes we have no couth, we have no couth today!
the last pe7 please?
We have bananas, but we make uncouth jokes about them.
(better a 3 year old flailing its arms and legs than flaying them ick!)
Oh, the couth of today........ (I blame the parents)
pe 7 -- persevere
Persevere is pe9. : P

i have 365 left and I am trying to get all the vowels... too much distraction
true but i need to go home to get a jack
bbl
(i am leaving jmb)
I have been defrocked. *Trudges sadly out of Queendom*
Jmb, you can turn the chat off if it's bothering you.
akkk problems adding words.... not you all. Too many words sre too distracting. i need to focus on small areas.
That's why I just pick at these big ones, like a big bowl of popcorn I know I won't finish.
Surely you have been decrowned, Moll, rather than defrocked? .....Or are you just looking for an excuse to frolic unclad in the chog?
No, the greedy Queen JMC has taken back my Jester attire. Fickle she is, very fickle. I shall go find another Monarch to entertain.
...(I still think Moll wants to frolic naked in the chog)....
No, actually I stopped stripping in front of people around the age of 4.
another huge one. i hate these.
...........as the actress said to the bishop..... (Stoppit NOW soodle!)
Oh HO!!! Passing the "Uncouth Crown" to Soodle. Cha-ching!
You started it!!!
pr5 after the man of church?
to open something cos
never mind found it
P's done.
Sorry, Cos. I'm too busy inhaling my smelling salts to focus on the grid.
i've finished on lickety expert but not the grid!! taking me ages to look through it!! i need sleep!!
how can you finish expert and not the grid?
arent they done at the same time/
because they won't go into the grid!!!
confused. when i enter a word in expert it goes to the list and grid at the same time
no, because earlier today with all the problems the words wouldn't go into the grid, so i added them into expert, which was fine but not all words will go into the grid when added!
Lilliann, if you are finished on expert ... go down to bulk grab and click on "get all added words
ahhh ok makes sense now
that sucks!
once that is finished click at the top "send words to babble"
yes normally cos, that happens but not today!
Hello (((Mom)))
((Soodle)) helloxx
was confused sorry lilli :)
hi mom!
Hi Cosdem
they are already added mom but they won't all go in!
Lillliann, that is how I had to transfer mly words this morning
how odd
guess because I only had 101 of them
the little circle comes up and goes round and round and then i wnd up logging out which it won't let me do so i click on the cross and reenter!
np cos
that is the pi**
the first re5 please?

What do you call a donkey with three legs?
Hello uusue
A wonky.
A donkey with one eye and 3 legs?
A winky wonky
re7 after the planting again?
A very small donkey with 3 legs and one eye?
A dinky winky wonky.
hi sue
never mind found it
And before anybody asks, No, I was not on the beer tonight. Just in a silly humour!
won't get far on this one, I'm afraid, have another 9:00 meeting tonight...
that is awfully late uusue
student group, they are always late :-)
((Sue)). Is your dad looking forward to his big milestone birthday?
I think so, Soodle - I talked to him yesterday and he said he was already starting to get cards. Don't know if he'll be doing anything, though.
didn't think you were soodles on the other hand i have had 2 glasses of wine and wish i was dink winky wonky especially after this grid!!
LOL Lilliann. Sue, I hope he does something to mark the occasion. Its a huge achievement to reach 90.
I hope some of his friends come to visit him, Soodle, or take him out or something. I wish I could be there...
hot da** all the 9's are grayed
9's done..4 more 8's..... 178 words left.
Woo-Hoo, Mom! Well done!
Oh, they better Sue. Dad should have a fun time on his special day. I'll hope extra hard that the friends come through for him.
sue, you're dad will be 90! great milestone and good for him and he can still get the trash in, alot better than then rest of us!! lol
you guys are good :-)
208 left ...5 8's
once the 8's are grayed I am out of here/
yay mom!!
good? nah, it has been a waste of a day
When you think of everything that has happened Planet Earth since 1921...... all the changes, the advances, the wars, by golly, your Dad has seen such changes, hasn't he?
31o left... all vowels found ...bbl
He really has, Soodle. He served in the army in WWII, in New Guinea and the Philippines (behind the front lines; never really saw combat).
that's only because of all the problemd mom, i should have finished lunchtime (brit time) now it's nearly iam as i'm having to go through my list!!
310
I'm tellin' ya Lillian, this is killing me
good thing I got my chores finished while it was down, sweetie will be coming home and the house would look just like it did when he left this morning lol
Jeepers, Sue. He must be such good company, with such tales to tell. My Grandfather fought in The Somme in WW1, but refused to speak about his experiences. When I was a kid, that always puzzled me, but now I understand.
i'm seeing words, words words!!! oh god i need help! i have the words but can't see them!!
Sue, I could sit and listen to your Dad tell stories all night. I love hearing about the way the world was before I came here.
'nother glass of wine, Lillann....
*Passes Lilliann a sedative*
can I help you Lilliann?
He's writing his memoirs, which make really interesting reading (at least to me, since they're about my family). My partner has read them, and my son wants to read them too. (He's up to the end of WWII now :-)
Sedative/Wine Wine/Sedative same difference!
no, i need slerp!! hubby kept me up all last night snoring and then chuffing cat wanting to sleep on or near me!!
By the way, for all you people who bought that blarney about how Soodle isn't on the beer tonight...notice she ONLY mentioned beer.
R's done!!
sue, that sounds great! i love reading peoples true life stories
Alert! Alert! Lilliann needs a slerp!
Wars are terrible things ... I wish those who start them had to be in the front lines.
*sleep
I agree, BR.
Sue, my uncle wrote a book about his experiences as a policeman in the Murder Squad in Ireland. Very interesting and all that, but the beginning of the book focused on his childhood, parents etc, which was all new to me.... It was a strange feeling reading about my own flesh and blood in a best-seller. Bizzare.
BR, that would be a very quick way to end war entirely.
I'm with you 100% there, BabbleRabble.
that would be weird, Soodle :-)
soodle, can we get that book?
Good evening to my fellow babblers! How is everyone?
By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! YAY!
Moll, I am intoxicated by the chog tonight. (I have to go out in about 15 mins to pick up my daughter, so there is definitely NO alcohol on board!).
and i need motre than a sleop molly i need a botle!! :)
hi min
Lilliann, its called The Sherrif (A detective's story) by Gerry O'Carroll.
Alert! Alert! Lillian needs bootie.
*more than a slerp i meant
hi, Min! You're looking handsome tonight :-)
i need sleeeeeppppp!!
ok soodle, added to my book list

I see..hope you get them all into the add word box before you get too tired :-)
i'm giving up zooz!!

they are already added zooz
ugh now my words wont add to the list
so you still need to find 9 more words?
but as soon as i add then to the grid, the little circle starts and then nowt!!
i have 88 left but the list says 204
Oh dear..something is not right then.
no my words are all in expert but i've had trouble adding themn all day
hi zooz
i know how you feel cos but i'm better off than you...sorry
ok i have 88 left but my word list is not showing allthe words :(
im not gonna bother..
mine has been the same aswell cos
Not sure what you can do apart from refresh..and maybe shut them all down and restart to see if that cures the problem?
i've added words but thy've not shown in the grid
i've refreshed, no different!
hi, back. Lilliann, are you using expert?
yes dc
Hello, DC :-)
yay its working now
when i was using it, i found expert bogs down in grids bigger than about 350, and it's better to do double entry if you want to finish
after refreshing 10 times
hi, zooz, lilliann, cos, et al
expert says i have all the words so i try and add them but then i get the cirle and then try again"!
i've domne that aswell dc
Quick, Cos add them quick before it goes again!
oh, how tiresome
i have put them in the grid and expert!
ok added.. not using expert now
Glad not to be using Expert anymore with all the problems i have been hearing.
i'm on Mac, so can't use expert usually.
it seems to be expert that is playing up as the other day when we had the 500 odd grid it was the same for me!!
Ok 1:28am here time for sleep for me. Take care, All :-)
well it's 1.30am and i am going to finish this blooming grid, so i'll just have to relook through my list! :(
g'night zooz
ah, but can you use expert on mac UNusually?
nite zoom, tc hin, sweet dreams
i play on my sister PC now and again, in which case i use Expert, doren :)
ahah! i can use it at one of my schools... strangely enough it got screwed up at the original school and i can't ever open it on mondays or wednesdays. and today is definitely a day for expert!!
Nite, Lillian and Zooz.

i got some 803's here... Problem is, I need an 801 and help reading the metal capacitors.
I could give other clue, but when you've put the carpet down again
you had to remember to unplug the unit,then turn it on to drain the residual before you pulled a tube or you would get kicked across the room lol and you had to pull the tubes carefull or you would rub the id number off it..yea you are right we are bettor off without it
I am going to call it a night. Only 72 to go, but I am all done.
then run down to radio shack and use the tube tester...
i rmember my first 50 watt guitar amp. I breadboarded it in midair. Then decided to push a cap away to get rid of the hum. Problem is, my arm was wrapped around the strings of the guitar and the amo was on.

Before I go, may I please have a clue for the second IM 7/36?
i'm listening to 80's music now, which was my thing!
