8's: an, ci, re, ta, ur
aww now I see it
I have never seen the ur 8 before... interesting word...
don't see the tr 11 nor the ur and ta 8's
tr11 and ur8 have the same last 4 letters
i think i remember seeing the ur8 a bunch of times in the novel last temptation of christ
tr 11... think about cars moving us from place to place (1st 5 letters) ... then what a GPS does...
I am surprised I have never seen the ur 8 over Lent ...
cos the last 7 is tr 7/28, not ta...
is there a ta 8?
have the tr 7/28
yes ta 8/50
ta 8 fairly common word... def is: inclined to silence; reserved in speech; reluctant to join in conversation
ty dee
yqw
now for the ur
def of ur 8/50 to whip with or as if with nettles, especially so as to produce a stinging sensation; flog; lash.
thought that was flagellation
might be different depending upon the item used to flog... ur 8 doesn't appear as a synonym... interesting
have nbt, but still stuck on the tr 11
tr11 my first word.. thanks nan
hi ru
bragging ruru?

Hello Glant xx
hi Jilli
Glant, see your fellow-Welshmanin my icon?
or what do you call the Welsh?
Welsh -or Welshmen - and he is one of my favourites - that voice, those eyes, the mischief - swoon
in Welsh we call the Welsh 'Cymry' - meanin welsh speaking people
I have Welsh family in Aberystwyth -- Cymru???
Cymru is the Welsh word for Wales - and my parents live 25 miles south of Anerystwyth
cymru is a cousin of myne
*Aberystwyth
OK, thought Cymru=Wales. Thks.
There's rude limerick about Aberystwyth...
Aberystwyth is in the conty of Ceredigion - anglicised to Cardigan - and Lord cardigan invnted the garment of that name
I haven't heard the limerick
forgive me -- I'm still enjoying a festivity at the neighbours'...
typing is terrible this morning
*!* ta da *!*
the people of Ceredigion - and Cardigan, it's county town, have a terrible reputation for being VERY careful with money
woo hoo nan
Hello everyone - oh my, nan has finished already, wty nan
wow.. I just noticed something
A maid from old Aberystwyth Went to the mill to make grist with. The miller's son, Jack,
lickety is almost in the grid
hi Flosey - gorgeous man you hav there
does that mean the world will end now?
Put her flat on her back And united the parts that they pissed with.
ROFLMAO!!!!!
nice looking gent isn't he!
Hi flosey -- same guy, same source, lol!
lol, jilli
now now jilli.. oh my goodness
Now you know, Glant :-)
ty Jilli
I know some others, ruru...
I fell asleep after a very late supper! not quite awake yet
been reading jill's write up - good one jill
I had a late supper too, and a late arrival -- blame TGIF with the neighbours
on my way -- have a busy day planned for tomorrow.
well, nan, I thought his thinking about acting was interesting, among other things.
any clues for the yo? i should be able to monkey it but i am running round in circles with it
golfing, nan?
nm - got it
36 left - will save those for this evening - off for breakfast - happy babbling!
Haha -- I have 13 words...guess I'd better focus!
I have 11
at least I just found the volcano
ty
I thought I'd lava that one alone for now
oh crud
don't be so smegmanimous about it jilli
...lol
yuk, smegma
flosey -- a truck drove off the ramp at Swartz Bay and the driver drowned!
how did that happen?
oh jilli, how horrible
yes, how on earth did it happen?
the ferry had left and he just slammed through a barrier...just watching the news..that's all they've said
wow, sounds very strange, don't you think?
what do you think ramped him up?
no answer to that, ruru
assuming trucker was alone?
Seems so, flosey.
One body was recovered.
.was he in the commuter lane?
did they say which ferry he had just missed?
Don't know, ruru -- there are about 40 lanes at the Swartz Bay ferry terminal going from Vancouver Island to the mainland.
Flosey, the report was short and I know no more than I told you.
ah, thanks jilli
ar 6/24 anyone?
no idea ru
sorry, ru -- no help here
I still have one bt -- the A over the K
ac4 jilli
I have 7 bts!! have been sticking with one letter at a time
ar6 = like an ar*ist
ty ru -- still puzzled. Being a Bridge person, all I can think of os ACOL, a Version of the game played in the UK
ty rbud but thatcan't be from that upper A
use the sometimes vowel instead, jilli
the ar6 was for ru
tyty rbud -- should have known that -- NBT
thanks rbud
thanks rbud.. but I still can't find it
now I did.. thank you rbud
yw! :)
I didn't :-(
odd word, but I guess it makes some sense (the ar6)
yes. it does make sense
I'm going to pack it in -- going to another funeral tomorrow, then a bridge game.
oh.. bummer jilli..
I should be in bed, too, but just not sleepy
oh my, almost forgot that date jilli, thanks for reminder
hubby wouldn't forget it
see you there, flosey? Going at 1 pm.
yes - do have it on my calendar
this month has flown by!
Ru, it's my ex bridge partner -- cancer.
I'll be off to bed too, g'night all

hi sue - ac 4/7 and plural
I just want to know if the tr11 is a compound word but I don't want any more clue than that, if that's OK
top a ac4
Um...it has a word within it, but it's not a compound. Does that make sense? Morning Kap.
Did you want a clue for the ac4?
Morning. Understood.
I got the 11! ding ding ding!
Molly, thank you! when you said it had a word within, I got the tr 11
55 left on a tough grid. I knew it had to start with those 5 letters.
Morning Annie.
Hi Molly
No I have the ac4- I was just giving someone the stats.
Hi Kaplan, are you ready?
See, I have learned to clarify when only half caffeinated.
For the rapture you mean?
Of course...
I am going straight to hell, you know.
I hope there is HBO there.
Oh dear, I might be joining you....going down...going down
I will be in excellent company.
Except Osama will be pretty grumpy I imagine.
I shall join you all. Good morning
Obama is having his hell on earth right now
(((Mom))) good morning
(((Annie))) good morning. How are you?
morning everyone :0)
I'm gonna go all zen for a minute, but I imagine when people realize that every day holds the possibility for rapture, they will quit predicting days like this.
Anie it seems like we all are, more or less
Why? Because he lays out a peace arrangement for the little kids, and one of the brats says "no dice?"
good morning Maryte
Hi Jean, How are you?
bumping along ;-]
Hi Maryte
hygiene!
oyyyyyyyyy
Um, I think Osama and Obama have been confused here.
thank you kap, it's been a long time since I got that one
Hijack and hygiene.
hi Annie and Mom.....
Much obliged.
Hello everyone. Just to let you know we have until 6pm today before the big event:) So we have 10 hours left...hmm what to do with my time.LOL
except one you are allowed to say in an airport and the other, not so much
Hi Blueheron, well babble of course
of course!
heck why bother with housework and all
Pretty flowers Heron.
nice bird Molly
Do I have to have clean sheets for this event?
I wouldn't think so, Kap. Unless you want to take them with you
maybe, that way you can be 3 sheets to the wind:)
I haven't been paying much attention to this EOTW thing, who is predicting this?
owwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.
lol blueheron
or you could blanket the whole situation.
Even I am at a loss- not too many bedpuns.
I hate using bedpuns.
end of the world...who says this?
lol, and I hate using bedpans:)
Paul Lynde says it.
he was so damn funny
Could you be careful about using the word "damn" today" Makes me nervous!
Some reverend is predicting it, according to the news. He has made millions of dollars from followers.
DAMNATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !
Jonathan Winters was da** funny too
hahahahahahahahahaha!
damnation to hell!!!!
aaarrrrgggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hh!
wait a minute, we are in hell...
and the beavers are saying, Dammit dammit dammit!!
O, damn golden slippers.
I'm sure they will have some tails to tell
good morning everyone..world is still here i see
So far so good, Crossy.
morning Crossy
hi crossy :)
but I am not making any dinner plans.
oh is there an exact time for this?
don't think so.
6 pm crossy
est, gmt, pst...?
est
it's OK then 10.25 pm here and all is well
this guy is a wack job anyway
How will we know when it happens?
Oh really, blue?
supposed to be a global eathquake
we'll all be sitting around playing babble and the world will be empty...LOL
It COULD happen. what do I know?
Will it shake up the grid?
Naaaaaaaaaaa
I have none of the 8's.
nope,i am told,those who are worthy will get theor heavenly bodies at that time,while the rest of us languish in the smoking ruins for 45 days or so,then we explode
Does Dr G_d know?
same here Kap
are any of them tr? The 8's I mean.
lol crossy
Save me a seat by the window.
I have a 'dour' ta8.50
ty lyn.
cool - monkeyed the ur8 - it means to sting!
...with nettles, possibly in crossy's smoking ruins
sl
???????????????????????????
well, we do have the container that holds the ashes in the grid
I got it gort.
goodoh, thought u were going to pop a quizzical seam there for a moment
Pop a quizzical seam? having trouble picturing that.
perhaps i meant split not pop
Oh, yeah- that's better.
BBL
can anyone pls give me a clue for the last st6?
is that the st & vermin & vowel?
why yes it is, thank u lyn!
yw
nice to "see" u again lyn
ditto!
trying, to use the an7/40 nonword in a sentence: acting an*****, she got up to her old tricks
An eleven? Really? Don't know that I have ever seen an eleven in the grid before.
sounds as awkward as the word looks
hey im still young prodigy i just forgot my password
it's just a prefix and an l word, bzz
Thanks for the clues. I'm just getting started so it will come to me...
best of british luck to ya then
lyn, may i pls have a clue for the sk6?
not from me I am afraid - not listing yet - I'll look with you though
hi gort, just got it - illuminated by the heavens
weird compound
ahhh of course (smites brow), thanks jbv, thanks lyn for lending me yr peepers
thanks JBV and hello
hi Annie and JBV
hi Annie
illuminated by the heavens - how poetic and sepulchral that sounds ( i think, depending on what sepulchral means)
very appropiate for today
well I think sepulchral is the opposite gort :)
good day for the rapture..crossy overdid it yesterday and my entire body hurts...
It's really not such a bad idea to think of how you would spend your last waking moments - do I really want to get on my hands and knees in the garden today???
i am going to make a nice crossy style canadian north woods type breakfast,play some babble,chase the wife around a bit and after that we will see
sepulchral = funereal or tombish, not resonant and lofty like i thought, no wonder people have been looking at me funny...although that might be the special rapture frock i'm sporting
...and the sign I'm holding up that says, "pick me!"
i just have to make sure she is in the 4 pm to 5:55 pm time slot lol
that give me the last five minutes to have a shot of bacon vodka and tie my shoes
re
s
Got that eleven. Thanks again.
I'm curious about what this Reverend will say if he is still around tomorrow - will he come up with another date?
He will probably buy a condo in the Carribean with all the monies he has collected
You won't need to tie your shoes, crossy.
or will he do what Mr Gortmold once did and leave an empty set of sandals, done up, at the kitchen sink, to give the impression of a rapturee
good give me time for another drop then
lol, gort
Do they make bacon vodka?
want to impress me? have them tied up,at the sink,but with the feet still in them
It's not the same idiot Reverend who was going to burn the Koran is it?
they do in heaven bzz
i make bacon vodka
Ahh.
No, lynxxx, there are more than one
well, I got my fireworks - ready for the rapture!
lol damn straight annie
have fun everybody - see you later (maybe).....
Hooray for JBV
WTG! JBV!
bye JBV, Hope to see you later
lol JBV
that "damn" word again- watch it- very sensitive.
just about every day someone predicts the EOTW, so why did this one become famous?
slow news day obviously
cause he told us when it was really close,not a long lead up
did not even have time to max out the credit card lol
we almost have the word in the grid- but missing a p.
reckon y've nailed it there lynx. why can't we just enjoy the brief, newsless lull between tsunamis
too lae in t5he night and 2 many wines
'night all
Oh my. EOTW day, and I totally forgot. Sheesh....
i cannot get the si51/12. Clue pls? At the risk of the PB, here are some it's not: sicky sicly silcky
nighty night lyn
night, lynxxx
on the plus side we will no longer have to worry about kadaffi or kim jong 2
nite lynxx
si5 oui, oui mon*****
ohh bless yr noble grey head, thank you grant
thanks, grant
I took you for granted, too.
mm past me it is,guess that is what i get for trying very hard to forget all the french that was pounded into my head in grade school;/
permission granted
head south east instead of north west, crossy
right, well, it could be the rapture, but it smells like fireworks, so i'm gonna hit the hay
nighty night babblers, thanks for the clues
night, gort
phantom - snafu
gnite
hello again. Reached half this AM
{{annie}}
((kaplan))
((ruby))
((ruby))
hi all
Hi, kaz.
fantic
it is ok,crossy does not want a hug..sniff
{{{crossy!!!}}} I've missed you! Either I'm playing less or we're on differing schedules.
Same goes for you, Miss Annie!
thats better
hello kazzer
ruby, different scheds....how is hubby?
ruby,i generally only see you when you get a second stab at the grid but before your martinis
hi ruby and all of you - been out walking again today - did about 7 miles with 1 in 5 hill to walk up - nearly killed me
Hi
howdy herin
hello herin
oh hello herin - how are you - long time no see
I thought I would say Hi to happy nice people
hi Kazzer and herin
husband is OK, in his waders in the fishpond. His "babies" have stopped hiding now that we've gotten a life-sized plastic heron standing guard
i am really happy today - dont know why done enough exercise to last a life time in the last 3 days but feeling great
ruby, glad to hear hubby is up and about..ah the heron is on guard
I am a lazy sloth compared to kazzer. I've just spent more than 2 hrs lying on the couch, reading and doing the NYT crossword. Bliss!
Babble, NYT crossword and good books is bliss
Even though Europe is having a terrible drought, our region has gotten enough rain for the garden to be at its most lovely. I am very lucky
I should be out there walking (hah) or trying out husband's treadmill (double ha)
Ha ha...*fluffs ruby's pillow*
howdy.
I see that annie has a lot of pull! (hahah)
left column gray. hehe
me, too, bzz
i am being slowly bullied by all and sundry to do the exercise but no I am, I am realy enjoying it.
have you been doing anything exciting Herin?
go, kazzer, go!
No not really.
I knew nothing about the Rapture; all that's in the papers here is DSK!
and the notorious NY perp walk
No we are still here sorry to disappoint
DSK, what a nincompoop
but a good-looking one hahah
my only objection is that he seems to have been found guilty already by public opinion.
isnt it supposed to be hapening later this evening?
i thought it was 6pm his time - he's out west somewhere isnt he - the rapture man
Well depends
6pm USA EST time
is it everywhere?
could i hve a little clue for the solitary s please
Yes, Ruby, get that heron out of the pond (LOL)
so midnight here. hmm, I guess I'll sleep through it
stats for an 8, please?
Well I thing it is a load of crap
an 8/65
well put, herin! you are all putting a smile on this frowning face! thanks for that
i agree herin - but i did say to hubby that if he goes i will claim his works life insurance and make the most of the end of days
lol Kaz
oh, so it's not everybody? would somebody pls explain
I feel like a dope
Well I am going to love you and leave you. I am going to go play my computer game
he reckons that 200 million people will be collected at the 2nd coming and the rest of us sinners will have to fight it out in the end of days
and max out our credit cards?
have a good game herin - i might facebook soon but i need to check some stuff in the fridge and do some washing as well
so in tomorrow's babble, half will be missing?
We can max out the credit cards of those who left...
ooh yes - that would be very good bea
I didn't think of that...good idea
snap kaz
does anybody have the 11? and more of a clue for the an8, pls pls
the an 8 is against door closures
type of brake system
ty annie, I would never have gotten that
the tr 11 is a compound word
hi all! any babbler reported lifted in the Rapture yet?
tr 11 - tr5 meaning over and a 6 letter word which can mean find
not yet, jmc...6 pm our time...and hello
{{kazzer}}
and annie, ty, that took me forever
well no doubt since the U.S. is a *cough cough* Christian nation it will happen on our time! ;-)
should I start smoking again since the end is near?
I don't think I can remember my vices.....
no annie go to god with clean lungs
I wouldn't if I were you, annie.
lol, then I will start mixing a margarita, anyone?
phantom: yenta
Morning folks
ooo mix one for me annie
If I had lead a cleaner life, I wouldn't have to cook and exercise after today. Damn it!
yes, I'm ready. we've lost our source for decent tequila here
ooh yes please is that made with tequilla?
hi mr. bob
no annie you don't want to smell of smoke when the Lord lifts you
yes kaz it has tequilla
I will take one of those margaritas, but I will not be responsible for my actions...
Yes, tequila, hands a margarita to ruby and kazz*
Hello Mr. Bob.
i took a shower so i would be nice and clean for lifting!
Uhoh, *gives a margarita to Bzz* have fun
we'll be watching, bzz
jmc, clean underwear, of course
I've been known to dance on tables after having a bit of tequila...
well no the clothing is left behind so that doesn't matter annie
you could dance on your keyboard, then we can all watch
*picturing Bzz being lifted while she is dancing on a table with a margarita in her hand
*checks Rapture rule book* nope clothing stays behind
*now wishing midrif bulge was smaller*
uh uh, not taking off clothes!
no choice if you are lifted in the Rapture
we going up nekkid....no way, Im not going
annie and I will just stay behind, drink margeuritas and use up everybody's credit lines

drat, phone
I am back, had to go away for a bit ..... Annie sitting today :-)
my biggest problem is that i am pretty sure my hubby won't be lifted from the rose bushes where i put him. . . .hand me a magarita!

bye ruby
lol Ruby, you are a hoot
bye bye
coffee's ready brb
back from phone, bye ruby, welcome back Mom
Hi Annie
Annie says hello as well
I agree jmc, and yesterday it would not take negro but enable allows ni**er
no one says negro any more but i must admit taking the "N" word as it is called in Chocolate City has always bothered me
of course it takes dozens of other archaic words! lol
yes, not a nice term.
I think there are quite a few words that are allowed that I find offensive like yids
never heard of that one Deeha, and hello
on the other hand i was told yesterday i couldn't call an action dumb because that was offensive to the developmentally disabled
i thought that was dumb
brb, gotta take Annie out
It did take "wops" though.
.. and wop. Yid is an derogatory word -??english- for a Jewish person
stats for right hand Y please
Had to get some breakfast before I started drinking that margarita.
I heard you couldnt call pets pets in case you offend them you had to call them 'companion animals'!!
ROFL!
i will take my chances my cat will be offended although i mostly call her my roommate
Yo4 and yo5
ty bzzn
never heard of that word
Mind you it is so easy to offend a cat almost impossible to offend a dog!
oh i just don't spell it that way
too tr** deeha
thanks deeha, for what a yid is
my cat was mightily pissed off when i went to kenya for a month
Yoiu should have told her the size of cats there that might have given her/him food for thought!
she would have thought she could take them!

hello again. st6/18 clouds
thanks ruby!:)
blue, we got a plastic blueheron for the fishpond and it's keeping the predator away
That's great!
the fish have stopped hiding in the bottom and only eating stealthfully at night
Now they are free!!
any clues for the top a and the lone i? I am stuck on those
free at last!
and the plastic one is quite pretty and larger than the predator who was grey
ac4-7 and pl
sorry, I don't have the I yet.

ic4 (slang for gross)
morning all
ic 4/11
morning pink:)
ty pink
ty you two. And I was careful to put it in the right place
hi ruby, blue, t'nana, et al
haven't seen you in a long time, pini, must be playing on different schedules
(ps: thx for the ac4, 5)
yes, thanks, I needed them, too
it's been awhile, ruby...probably ;) but I'm here now! how are you?
yw
it is so beautiful here! I think the garden is at its all-time best!
we've been lucky, drought-wise
I don't water the roses or peonies, but their beds seem to be self-sustaining
the grass, of course (and it's my husband's problem), is another story
most make the mistake of mowing it so close the poor lawn gets scorched on the next hot day
that's exactly what DH does. He thinks he still lives in Miami where it rained every day, at least a little, all summer
*Stocking up the PB since li4 is in the grid*
my grass gets mown magically while I'm at work...it's not looking too bad at all! :)
if it had been up to me, I would have planted creeping thyme and other such plants, that never need mowing or any care and smell good when you walk on them
morning everyone!
hi crossy, cwest ;)
is that me, molly?
and hello
howdy cw
hi, west tx
howdy pini
hi cross and pini
finally ... NBT ;)
eewww anyone have a clue for the s in the 1st column please?
since we now have a ban on all those nasty toxic pesticides and herbicides,you see more and more of the english style "natural" gardens
st5 (think clouds)
true, crossy, and the French have obliterated most of the good insects with their use of DDT
we still had ladybugs the first two years, but none now.
We don't use any sprays in our garden, partly because of the pups and partly more globally
the only thing I'm missing in my yard is a goat
I only eat fruit from my own garden
we were bad as well,believe it or not ontario hydro was using defoliant to clear tower corridors right up till the mid 80,s
OMG
I would love to have a goat, but it would probably eat the roses
love goats!
we had goats..3 of them....
they ate EVERYTHING!
I check craigsli4 to 'rent' one for the blackberry bushes...
I've heard that, if you have a goat, you can't hang out laundry
the grass,the bark on the trees,the shrubs,the door trim..everything
...renting is expensive! :(
what do they do for the blackberries, pini?
if you tether them,you spend you life untangling them
they eat 'em ruby
we have amazing, huge, blackberries with no thorns (but not yet)
they are always jumping with fleas....
so you are saying, not a good playmate for the pups?
I think I'll have to go back to the old way of using my hands and garden sheers
they are not a good playmate for anything
fleas crossy?
in Basel, behind the train station, they use sheep or goats (I don't remember which), to mow the grass
my advice is pass on the goats
tons of them blyeheron
I need a playmate!
omg
<-- passing on goats
do goats really eat tin cans?
i will never,ever get goats again
no they do not eat cans,but they will swallow hanging laundry
my boyfriend is a Malinois at the local restaurant. He stays next to me the whole time I[m there; other customers think he's my dog.
lol:)
our garden is very animal/bird-friendly, but unfortunately, the Fr have eaten all the squirrels, deer and rabbitds
basically,they eat everything except what you wish them to eat lol
must give them a sheety outlook on life:)
raofl
LOL
I couldn't resist:)
too perfect ;)
it's ok, we're just hanging around, waiting for the Raptue. Tomorrow, they're probably be half as many babblers
that's right ruby:)
all the "good" ones will be gone
only if you made it to the top 10%
lol!!
never will be me!
...and if you want your pet to be cared for, you can hire non-christians to keep them
hah hah
ha ha!!
I'd rather stay around with my pets and my garden' I'll take my chances
Wait a minute -- Isn't it already May 22nd somewhere??
same here ruby.
It must be Erda
I don't know the date, Erda. I thought it was 6PM, edt
I've been trying to figure it out...if the "world is coming to an end"...how is it possible that someone will be left to care for the animals? Did I miss something?
maybe our own DrGod:)
6pm GMT even! ;)
You can get someone to come by, someone who is saved from the Rapture, and feed your pets. Only $10.00!
no, only the "good" people will be taken. The rest of us "bad" people will be here to take care of the pets and max out everybody else's credit cards
hahahahahaha!!!
and, probably, collect on their life insurance
bad Ruby
This is too funny...
I'm sure there are people who belive it!
we'll probably be running thru the streets looting everything...
just things we could do!!:)
I have actual proof the world will end. When I got up this morning, my watch stopped. Then, a couple of hours later, it started up again. This is a sign! This is an omen!
just fell off my chair laughing
think of
...btw, this is coming from the same guy that "miscalculated" the last apocolypse (back in the 1990's)
At least it provided some levity...
omg god!! was it a timex?
godthaab, if the trains are still running, come here and hunker down. I have a great supply of booze!
if the word ends..that's going to screw up my tennis match tomorrow..dang
Yea, he forgot to carry the 1.
I'll be there ruby!!
Booze? I'll be right over!
better get the game in today, ru...before 6
we can have an end of the world party! it could go on for decades!
How do I catch a train to France?
oh it's at 6:00?
Party time everyone at Rubys!!!!
this guy is a cult leader methinks
unfortunately, I have friends who probably believe it. I had better send them e-mails in a hurry
6pm greenwich mean time
ya think, ru?
no, I thought it was 6PM EDT
lemme check again...hold on
cranking up the drinks and hors d-oeuvres
if it's 6PM GMT, I've already been passed over. Uh oh
EDT, I think -- this is an American non-phenom...
.. Think I better have a nice glass of wine tonight then..
I'm going to cook dinner and have another dacquiri!
but the Australians were worried earlier.....
oh, did you hear about the retired bus driver who contributed $140,000 from his life's savings to 'get the word out' in flyers, billboards, etc??? I can't even imagine!
have fun Ruby
and you didn't give him my address?
I was hoping for a cut, but apparently I didn't make that 10%
we shouldn't make fun; there are probably lots of people who believe; they probably just don't play babble
we are wicked!
Just call me a 'doubter'...sorry
fdl
speaking of "doubt", i saw a Meryl Streep movie named Doubt (or something, that was the Fr name) that was really nasty.
Is anybody else a movie addict?
I like the oldies, ruby
(BTW: for those interested in the Zombie Apolocolypse...check this out from the CDC (Center for Disease Control)): http://emergency.cdc.gov/socialmedia/z ombies_blog.asp
I'm less discriminating, just don't like Oriental violent or computer-generated junk but otherwise, will watch almost anything. (hard up for entertainment in Fr, even with satellite dishes)
I just love movies
I don't care much for computer-generated, but the Pixar movies are cute ;)
unfortunately, when they show them here, they are dubbed
Cartoon movies are the equivalent of waching saturday morning cartoons with a price tag...I avoid them.
my favorite movies: Chinatown, pulp fiction, amelie, Fried Green Tomatoes, GodFather 1, Color Purple Joy Luck Club. these are movies I can see again and again
I don't care much for dubbed movies...trying to read and watch at the same time is frustrating
mine are: Chocolat, 27 Dresses, Far From the Madding Crowd, Blowup, Casablanca.
oh.. and a Question of Silence
love Amelie, too
Some of my favorites include: Empire of the Sun, Pretty Woman, A Walk in the Clouds, and several from the 30-40s
Casablanca and Chocolat are on my second round
Fried Green Tomatoes is one of my favorites too.
The Lives of Others
The BIg Lebowski is a great one too
Sea of Love
Into the West
Raging Bull (great, great great)
Frankie Starlight
The Dude abides.
{{Molly}}
I need to remember the names of more movies I've enjoyed...
the hungry minions call.....see you later.
I haven't seen Sea Of Love in a while Ruby. Might add that to my weekend flick picks.
I'm like you, Pini, the names come back slowyly
there is nothing else to do here, from 8:45 on.....
fortunately, we get some American and British series
I wish they would show more movies from the 30-40s...
I need to put this on a banner: "If you have a goat, you can't hang out the laundry." Seems like a useful rule to live by.
hi kappy...makes sense, doesn't it? :)
hello i am back again - hubby went a cut the front lawn - amazing only 2nd time this year and i had to watch
hi kaz ;)
if the world is ending why would he cut the lawn>?
is watching it get cut like watching it grow but only slightly more entertaining
oh, good point, ru
because he is ashamed to go out when other folks are there and god does like a tidy garden
agrassoclips now1
* giggle *
yes Pini - because i am not doing it - we are terrible neighbours really - everyone loooks well groomed and pretty and we normally have a jungly - a goat or a sheep would be at home
Does god reallly sweat the small stuff like that?
prob not but he loves us all regardless of what the garden looks like
I'd think like sleeping with your neighbors wife would rate above if your lawn is clipped
or she loves us all or they love us all depending upo your particular slant on god is
my yard probably looks very similar to yours, kaz...must be why the neighbor mows my lawn while I'm at work ;)
well if god is a she.. I can see the tidy lawn thing..
nice neighbor
I think so :)
you lucky thing pini - i wish i had fairies that did the housework for me - that is my pet hate - i have lost my glasses so am being forced to do it to find them
what's god's take on dirty dishes and the laundry kaz?
I wish I had a cleaning fairy, too...trust me!
Gardening almost done. Put in some more green pepper plants, a mint plant and some thyme. Cut back the azaleas so the tomatoes will get more sun. Composted the potatoes. Me and Ma Earth are in sync.
doing all that work...wow...
How do you garden when you babble?
this talk of productive gardens has made me hungry...back shortly
Babble is my break time.
Ruru - sod it - if i am being taken then they can rot by themsleves and if i m not then they can still rot by themselves
sick tick
Aren't your priorities a bit skewed?
Uh- oh- penalty for the Mets.
good morning, all who have remained!
Yes they are. In fact, last night, I opted for a good night's sleep instead of finishing the laundry. Skewed skewed.
whos mine? I am babbling and wondering what to have for dinner
hello babblers! Are we all still here?
Everyone's so anxious!
I didn't know Anthony Hopkins was Welsh.
I didn't know much about him at all until I read this in Wikipedia
i dont care about the rest by the way does anyone have a clue for the lonely s on the left side of the grid please
me either. i should change my icon.
St6- I think kind of cloud?
aha
Think of a word that ends in osphere and use another vowel at the end.
i have it - it might be a plural of the low stuff you get in a warm sector
thanks left column grayed out.
I just just got hit with a couple of fish...
for me the grid has been odd, I find a bunch and then it slows and I have to come back later...
me too red, sometimes come back and they seem to just fall into place (especially after a good night of sleep)
I had a good morning's sleep- I went back to bed and did not get up till 11:30 (I had been up at 6:30.

an7- there is an an5 with an additional consonant, and plural
sorry - last an7

same thing, different ending.

Thanks. Frustrating to have 5 of 7 letters and still need help!

Une! Your icon is hysterical!
:-D
lol! Had to reload, but indeed it is :-)
going to take a nap bbs
later, peri
bye, peri! have a good nap :-)
I love naps
indeed, jean, I am thinking of having one myself (or at least curling up and reading for a while)
although I will probably find a few more words first...
me too, I have a wedding to go to tonite
ooh! Happy wedding!!!
wow, just listened to Fresh Air review of Empire of the Summer Moon . . . what an epic story . . .
somehow I have been to a lot of funerals lately but not a lot of weddings...
Sue, I was thinking the same thing. Too many funerals, not enough new babies.
clue for an8/65?
A kind of brakes.
thx, molly!
tx molly!!!

Hello Carlee. How is Vicky Day weekend going?
Hey all. Molly, do you mash the taters yourself?
spent the day with dxh and m-in-l and b-iin-l...that should about sum it up
carlee that sounds quite unpleasant. I spent the day cleaning the vaccuum cleaner and then vacuuming everything including the dog.
Glutton for punishment today Carlee?
i just bathed the dog
working on the old house to get it sold
will be spendin gwhole weekend with them
No bathing for me, I shall take him to the groomer this week.
i was a nice girl tho..i played nice with the dx m-in-l and sent her home wit a piece of pineapple upside down cake
that is nice!
hope she chokes on it
I am sure she will not.
damn..i was hoping
What, pray tell, was the mother doing to help fix up the house?
holding one end of wood whilst it was being cut for deck ( actually she is very handy..she owns her own table saw )
Well at least she's useful
she is actually..a pita...but useful
anyone know how to get rid of the smell of mange from carpet?
Other than rip up the carpet and burn it? No. Have you looked around the internet?
not yet
this house..now that humidity is in air....the carpet stinks of mange
Is this in your house or the old house?
going to rent a carpet shampooer and use the anti pet odour soap...
my new place...that i am renting
Your plan sounds like it will work
i thinka couple bottles of febreeze over the next week or so may help
Then there are the old standbys...baking soda, vinegar, lemon juice.
the carpe is he whole floor..of he whole house
carpet...that alot of lemons :p
What is the smell of mange? Baking soda ruubed in well and left overnight before vacuuming should work
but cleaning it first would be better
mange is kinda a rotten sweaty wet dog smell
howdy
hiya hoot
I see. Not a fun thing.
I can't believe the people renting the house didn't replace that carpet. That's gross.
hihi
i rather the smell of stinky cat litter
they did shampoo...
the soda works on kitty litter too:D
AND...the garden out front of the house is obviously in use by the neighbourhood cats..and my daughter's bedroom stinks of cat urine...
The problem with odor is it gets in the padding and you can't get it out of the padding. I don't suppose you can replace that?
( the house cracked in the middle about 20 years ago... )
nope..1. cant afford..2> no permission from landlord
so...got son bringin home mothballs for the garden
Anything you can plant to keep the cats away?
I see, mothballs.
Buy a packet of catnip seeds and throw in landlords yard
heheh funny
it'll work
where do all the cats come from?
he lives over an hours away...
just neighbourhood cats...
ok
too bad
well then trown it in the cat owners yard. I hate roaming cats. Have one here and it drives me crazy
or call animal control. What kind of isiots are they to let them roam
idiots?
or..put mothballs in the garden...that keeps them away
if you can stand the smell
and it doesn't rain
its outside....am inside :p
sling shot, water pistol, hose on timer
requires me staying up late.....am USUALLY in bed by 9
you know I'm laughing right?
oops - forgot - throw rocks
well..i did get a dog..in the hopes of scaring away the cats :p
thet'll help
so far its afraid of my cats
NOW I am in hysterics!!!
its going to be a BIG german shepperd
its paws the size of my fist and its 10 weeks old
By the time he is BIG enough he will either be totally cowed or friends with them
am leaning to cowed....
he so wants to play with kitties :(
hehehehe:D
Can you borrow an already big dog for a while?
3 cats and 2 dogs in a house that smells of mange :p?????? i think not
is the tr11 related to the tr7?
Last 6 but bbl.
Well he wouldn't have to come inside
its ok....mothballs are cheaper..i dont have to feed them
no it's a combo of tr5 and a l6
Wow Carlee, you have a dog now too?
an l6! My vocabulary is getting worse!
thanks hootowl
my son decided he wanted a dog there are picso f him on my fb profile
yw
I have to go. BF ran a program that erased all my passwords and then set me u to start here. Lots'a'luck carlee. bbl
up
the pics still make him look more black lab...but he is growing his snout...he is only 10 weeks now..and the ears arent up yet..he is a purebred german shepperd...but all black with white toes and a white pendent on his chest
thanks hoot :)
( HEHEH...puppy is dreaming and he is barkingin his sleep )

One who ra4/4s
No- the second to last 5/10
Oh- another damn fish.

I really haven't finished a grid in a long while so thanks for those last sticky ones.
Well, the rapture is a bust. Drink up people.
you look might like Paul Lind to me !!
It's ok. People mistake me for Paul Lynde all the time. But I'm really Yetta.
they are saying 6 pm pacific time, but I have doubts...
Wow, all day I have been reading it was EST.
**Lynde ** funny guy
Maybe all the fundamentalists are gone, and the rest of us are still here?
I remember sending NancyBoy clips of Paul Lynde on youtube. I felt he should be educated about these things.
:(
I did have a funny feeling of being levitated out of my surroundings a few minutes ago- wait...who's playing harp?
Yeah, it was EST. There are already headlines that the prediction failed.
ooooh... at least you were headed to the good place !!!
Who said it failed? There's Moses!
Moses?
He was a good Jew. I knew he would come for you Kap.
Why is this elevator suddenly going DOWN?????????????
Wait- I pushed Lobby- this is the BASEMENT!
Man it is HOT in here all of a sudden.
Damn...
I gotta go.

Alas, no Triple Crown winner this year.
Go, Red, Go!

Hello Min!

We are in Alberta , Canada, so that's quite a way from home !!
hi, min! still here :-)
no, red. I'm sure it is relief that the rapture didn't happen.
really? I would not have minded to be raptured. I just didnt imagine we could figure it out ...
like humans could fathom the working of a God...
phantom: lickety
oh, well then perhaps it is sadness that the rapture didn't come
LOL! I like that phantom car.eeyore! I see it now too

Indeed. I think I'll wait a bit. Maybe find these last 33. Is there a Li**?
lickety is up on babble pro, red
(so I assume on the regular spot as well)
I think maybe I need Lickety for the last 33....
Hi uusue!
hi, car!
Red, Hobbits have second breakfast, so I say go for second dinner.
I think I need to wait and see if I am still hungry in a bit.
Hobbits are not exactly sexy.
Did I say it would make you sexy? : P

*Passing Mom an ice pack*
Three of her fingers are black * blue. She has her hand in ice now.
poor mom!
you're sure nothing is broken, car?
do you want me to take her up for an x ray?
She can move them. She is a doctor, so I will defer to her diagnosis.
does not sound good
The nails are discolored, not the fingers.
ah, ok then, car. ice sounds good.
OK, the ice cream truck is going by. This is not a surprise. The fact that it is playing "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer", however.....
ICE CREAM!!!!!!
LOL!
it got your attention, didn't it? :)
Time to do the Eddie Murphy ice cream bit.
Want a li4?...Psyche!
OMG Molly!
hello all!
LOL- Laughing at just the mention of Eddie Murphy's ice cream bit
Hi TO!
I got some ice cream, I got some ice cream. You don't get no ice cream, 'cause you're on the welfare and your Dad's an alcoholic, I got some ice cream, I got some ice cream.
Ice cream AND Christmas?! You're so lucky!!
Hi 72 Temple Owl! How are you? Welcome to the grid!

Oh damn, I hope you two never watched Pulp Fiction.
Good times....
HATE that movie!
remember consuela? or was it rosalita? and Mr. Peanut on the wall?
me too Car
And the Pope of course!
The pope! EVERYWHERE the pope! oh, hey - which one? JPII?
I hated that movie too.I walked out of the theater in the middle of it.That's only movie I ever did that with
The language in the movie didn't bother me...everything else did though!
You know, after we left, she stopped running it as a b&B and started a home for "wayward girls" --- I feel CERTAIN it was us the spurned that change....
I have no clue why people rave about Pulp Fiction (or any Tarantino movie for that matter)
No she didn't?!?!?! How do you know?
The only Tarantino movie I did like...and I really can't explain why...is From Dusk 'Til Dawn.
I'm not a fan of Quentin Tarentino either. Too violent
SHE DID! Mom told me....
How would Mom know?
gee, what could it be, Car? George Clooney, maybe?
ummmm...perhaps....yes, that MIGHT be it!
Oh, I hated that one too.Worse than Pulp Fiction. At least Pulp Fiction had a little bit of humor in the film.
I liked it. I just did.
okay, that's it. Indy just got me in the arm again. I am going to try to trim his nails. Pray for me....
You girls and your Mother need to wrap yourselves in cotton or something.
xbsz jkl; aaaaaggggggggggggggg
Dear Lord, please look over Trif as she trims the dog's nasty nails. Bring her the gift of the dog whisperer to calm the pup and the skills of a manicurist to get them to just the right length. Amen.
Put the laptop down first, Silly!
oops, sorry - indy jumped in my lap there for a sec
I prefer bubble wrap, Molly!
Amen
Is this nail trimming going to be as bad as brushing the girlie's hair?
"bout the same I would think! : p
screw it. tried. failed.
might try later when he is more sleepy, and dopey.

yes please MIn- thank you
do that make that, molly?
is it a compund min?
Isn't that how vets do it?
OK...back!
Sort of; it starts with the tr 4/4 word 72 Temple Owl.
the through prefix
the Red Sox and the Cubs have throw back uniforms! They are very cool!
verily, i only have one tr4
does it build on the tr7?
oh, thrillsville - secondo has gone outside to practice "catching" lax balls, which involves her slamming lax balls into the side of the house for an hour. Just WAITING for the "broken window" sound!
OK, MY HOUSE IS SIGNIFicantly dust freer. sorry about the all caps
good job Red
ummm - slighty naughty enable question?
thanks DR. the other thing...the sun is finally going away so maybe I can once again return outside.
tr11 starts the same way as the tr
does it accept di4 (think slang for male sex organ....)?
sorry tr5 but doesn't build on the tr7
probably thinking of it as a slang for private eye.
ok thats helpful Uusue2
hmm. okay, thanks red.
it does, trif, although that is a word with several meanings (detective, for example)
also the spotted Di** which is some sort of pudding over the ocean.
i was wondering, is all, since cl4 is not valid.
whine, there is nothing at all on television.
does anyone really watch the Lawrence Welk show?
ah, I noticed that too, trif :-)
internet radio. that is my sat night
hi red
not a bad idea at all TO.

hi all, help with an8 pls
what is going on red?
type of brake on your car peri
I'm having my hip surgery on thursday so I am getting ready for everything now. It is not that big of a deal, but requires some rearranging of furniture, so I can be somewhat comfy in front of the television for a few weeks,
Hi Peri.
and Hi Phaeton!
duh, thanks phae
hi..sorry to hear of surgery
oh red, sorry to hear that about your hip. are you havingit repaired or replaced?
good luck with your surgery, red! what are you having done (if you don't mind sharing)?
If it works it will be a great thing for me. they are going to repair the parts that are malformed.
Red, is someone coming to stay with you when you have your surgery?
It is a Hip Arthroscopy, but it is not like having a knee scope, it is more involved, they dislocate the hip to repair it, etc.
U's Uplifted! 3 left
I sure do hope it works, red. will be thinking of you on Thursday
Yes, Molly, I have a lot of people who will be coming by and lucky me, someone who will take the dog to their home!!!
Yaaayyyyy Minver!!!!!!
Good, I just wanted to make sure you would be taken care of. I will hold you in my prayers Red.
rd, glad you will have help and someone to care for your dog
thanks Molly, I am mostly worried that he wont find very much int here and i will continue to have the pain issues after.
ouch!
I'll share something I read recently. "Worry is a misuse of imagination." Think positive Red.
Oh wow, I have found ALL 4 letter words.
ishing you the best, red.
yay, red!
and we will be thinking about you, of course!!!
how many words are there?
wishing, even :/
167
thanks Molly! I just hope there is something in there for him to repair!!!!
you can ish me the best any day TO!
you know whats funny though? In getting ready I have done all these things I have been putting off for years, like framing some items...and such..
:)
ok, I am going to go rot my brain with TV or trashy novels or something. See you all tomorrow!!
Oooh I need to go to the library! Lacking good books.
Sounds like something I would do Red. You'll have a nice, clean, comfy nest to recuperate in.
oh yes, red, stock up on books!
Night Sue
how long will the recuperation be red?
It's looking much homier! I wish I had framed some of that stuff years ago.
*poof!*
If it isnt any big repair, I'll be back in commission in 2 weeks or so, so thats good.
a clue for an8 pls?
You should go to a Mart store and stock up on five dollar movies too.
I usually use Hulu.com!
type of brakes on a car, Owl, the an8
ty
yw
I'm a big hulu fan, but they don't have many movies. Do you have plus?
No I dont, I guess I have mostly been watching television shows there, and a few films...
I use hulu for watching TV shows. I rent movies from amazonunbox
I need to catch up on NCIS, I missed about 5 episodes in the beginning of this season!!! I hope I can find it somewhere...
That is the advantage of hulu plus. You get the whole season of episodes instead of just the current ones. I have been tempted to upgrade.
ar6/24 pls?
plus I will have to be doing daily physical therapy, so I imagine I will actually be sleeping a lot...from being tired.
I need it too TO...
any idea how l ong yo uwill be out of action?
2 weeks on crutches, and then we will see. it depends on the repair he has to do. but I think based on my MRI it iwll be short.
No clue for the ar 6?? Please!
hope so.

Yes Wild, ther is a ur8. Heya 2Bit, pretty day 'round these parts.
how about s8?
indeed it was - went swinging in the park with baby2bit
Now that's rapture. : D
I heard that the rapture happened, it's just that nobody qualified

Hi BookDoctorGwen.Would ask how you are,however does not look good. Is there anything I can do to help
no, worse
I am done! I have fireworks! it 7/28 was my last word
just spent 1/2 hour trying to help a relative (over the phone) use googlemaps. impossible!
yay min congrats!
wtg min !!!!! ~~~~~ !!!!!
I'll be here off and on for clues if anybody needs them
phone computer "support" is the worst
Rapture, Mr2Bit, is swinging with baby girl in the park. Not what the flamers purport it to be. We are lucky enough to have moments of rapture every day.
i don't do phone support. i'm not good with the dense. LOL
agreed, Molly :-)
BDG I've started sending people to this http://xkcd.com/627/
good one, dan, but my relative would not appreciate that!

stopping now, headache needs my attention. POINK
snarf is NOT a word!
it totally is. How else do you describe shooting soda out your nose when you laugh too hard?
that's snort
i agree with Dan, snarf is the word
snarf is to eat up all the cookies before your brother can eat one
that's scarf
both mean the same thing
also amused that li4ety very nearly appeared in the grid!
must be regional differences :)
Yes, I'm in the NE region and you're in the mid-Atlantic region, different words
narf is an exclamation from Pinky and the Brain.....lol
Yay Pinky!
Any one missing this evening? Wondering who left us following the rapture.
LOL Bea :)
A Babblers accounted for. Nothing can keep us from our obsession
There have got to be some terribly disappointed people in the world.
you said it. bichon :)
yeah, there must be indeed
S's snarfed
before I go off to bed, could I have stats for the top a and for the second y

Diets suck, crossy.
but needed crossy is getting "fluffy"
use enough herbs and spices, and you'll not miss them as much as you worry, crossy, hard as it is to transition
indeed dc,already have the herb garden going and a bottle of mrs dash is in the cupboard
My grandson told me he loved me fluffy. Ahh...
hi all
oh and i was remiss this morning..i give you crossy,s tidbit of the day....
lol Bzzn, my daughter told me I am too skinny because I am a Grandma and I should be fluffy
Cruise control and automatic transmissions were invented by a blind engineer named Ralph Teetor.
i like garlic more than mrs dash's
lol seaspray
garlic is superior to mrs dash's, i agree, jmc.
i already use lots of garlic
LOL seaspray
keeps the vampires away;)
clue for ta8?
needless to say, I begged to differ with her lol
dog is telling me he wants to go out bbl

its official--i hate apple computers
i love my apple :) but they're not for everyone
it probably doesn't help that the wireless mouse doesn't have a button at all
the newer ones have 2 buttons as opposed to being on big button.
the trackpad on my macbook has left and right buttons
my exSIL has a brand new mouse just no buttons :-(

Hello rururocks and torgone! I missed your entrances
gn all leavers
hiya minver
Heya Min ..
In li 4/5 of giving clues in the chog, I will give a story of clues. After getting halfway finished, I became a li 5/10 and opened Lickety. Then I went to lo 6/21 my monkeys.When I found them, they were fr6/27nizing with eachother in a ci 7/32 in an old underground an 5/10 they had discovered. They were an 7/28 today than they usually are.Had to put up with the an 6/21 of my monkeys again today.They procrastinated and fa 4/7ed around. Then they tried to be sl 5/20 & run away from me. Then they atta4/9ed me and threw st 5/20s at me. I told them their fa4/7 was in my hands if they didn't ca4/5r to my needs. I grabbed them by their ar 4/5. My monkeys weren't fa 4/7 of Babble at all today, but they helped out. When I finished grid, I lo 4/9 monkeys up in a cage for their behavior. They begged me to let them go outside since they wanted to become one with na 6/21. I told my monkeys their behavior was ra 4/4d negative 10 and I was si 4/9 of it so they had to be punished. Ra 4/4! Hubby wants a tu 4/5 on the computer to play Fa4/8ville. I can feel his st5/10 st5/10 on me. If I don't give him computer he will get into an ic 4/11 mood and then he'll become fr 7/44. Then he will become a ra6/18 and ra 4/4 and rave about Babble.Husband ra5/10 all the time about Babble. It is ra4/4 for my hubby NOT to say anything bad about Babble. Hubby ru4/5 the day I discovered Babble. I hope you found some more words to add to Li4/9ety's li 4/4. I'm going to go st 5/10 a movie and watch it for the re 4/4 of the night. I will re7/28 the Babble websi4/4 again tomorrow.Oh and by the way, this story of clues is not tr4/5. Goodnight everyone!

Congrats, JMC!!
last word was ur5/14 (still don't know what it was)
I just we all survived the rapture today...
that's probably one of the ones I'm missing too!
hehe ruru
This was my first rapture I didn't know what to wear
nothing was best ru so i am sure you were undressed properly
I've been in my pjs all day... not exactly the "Sunday Best" you're supposed to let God see you in :P
no no if you are lifted you leave your clothes behind
true, jmc. according to those books.
ur5/14 is one letter less than the ur6/24 below it
need clues anyone?
yes..
who killed colonel mustard and where
I think i might be missing that 6/24 as well.... are there two?
prof plum in the kitchen with a wrench
there are 2 ur6/24 and their only difference is the third letter
thanks!
u's are smashed down to a deadly pulp!

some apple person tell me how to find the usb flask drive i just plugged into this silly thing!
wtg ballet but try less violence next time 0:-)
usually comes up as an icon on the desktop, jmc
violence is what I resort to in the final hours of the grid. If I think I may best it, I must get vicious. lol
oh my goodness
i found it inspite of the apple computer
what is the matter ru?
probably my excessive "excitement"
Is there bourbon in that flask drive?
lol tor!
i will have to check. . . .
only a drop :-(
oh bother i can't open this files on this silly thing
i was going to actually work!
lol Macs can take some getting used to
took me six months to figure out how to install a new program without it just "somehow happening"
there are two a7's right?
yes ballet
so it's an s I'm missing here.....
one is a pl and the other a similar adverb
wait there are three a7
ah! i need one of them!
the third is being more nervous
I shall find it....
I'm missing the plural one... which means I'm probably missing its singular :P
the singular is similar to an an5/12
an + clock sound ..
aha! thank you both. got only one a left!
okay whoo hoo ballet in advance--i must go wrangle my netbook with the external keyboard since it at least lets me open files. :-(
how about you torg? you done?

Good Evening. Our grandson is here; I found 55 words before he came; think I can finish the grid tonight (or are there tricky non-words again today?)
Hello Nef! How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle!
hi nef!
There are some tricky words in the grid,but I have a story of clues in profile if you need.I am not sure if it includes the trick words though, but it is quite long.
I'm finding the grid sort of tricky today. But I don't know if everyone else is.
The grids I did do this week had lots of make believe words in them. I'm hoping this one isn't like that
Hey, anybody Raptured up?
