hello again buddies! **hugs**
hi and hugs mrp,
cl 9/60 ... first five letters of a word for preacher + se4/4 babblet
thanks City, looking
ty city!!
+ se4/4 BACKWARDS
(sorry, early!)
thanks, got it
yw, sorry the clue wasn't more coherent :)
no problem City
meaning a very intelligent person?
I have two 9s and the 10 but no 8s; could someone clue me one at random just to get the 8 generator started? ;)
apparently so... that's us lot, right?
the collective noun for a group of babblers :)
well, I would definitely not fall into that class! but certainly many here would
nonsense, we're all geniuseses. Geniusi. Clever people (she says, begging for scraps of 8s)
I have 2 x 9 and 2 x 8 and none are related
ci8 x 2
I think that's my problem with this grid, flosey, nothing seems connected.
both following ci7
I have the pl now, flosey, thank you, looking for the other
okay, thank you, got that one. I can leave the grid alone for a bit now and have breakfast.
assuming you meant cl
I meant the plural of the ci7, and the vowel ending after a quick bout of monkeying. I will presumably make more sense after breakfast. One can hope.
bye for now flosey, thanks for the help.
yuk, 8 red boxes!
back again, and darn -- I've missed a lot of hints
(and yes, flosey, banana -- but was hungry so had some yogurt with muesli too, and some V8!)
I had tea and a piece of peanut butter fudge
very nourishing!
I wish you hadn't said "fudge",,,<drool>
well, I have to keep trying with this one, haven't mastered it yet
ok... now i just need an 8 for nbs
wtg m9
ok. nbs, nbt... now to go for 1/2 way
thanks flosey
wtg m9 -- I still don't have the 10
ah, I have just passed half way

ah, back to the grid :) hi all *jilli* (hugs)
{{mrp}} how are you feeling?
cere rice
Weeeeeell, I had to start somewhere. Shame, shame on me.
*mutter, grumble* - hint for the lower left corner i for nbt? (hate to ask, but...monkeys have failed me thus far)
oops, and I said a word, off to the pb first thing
it5/12 comes from that tile. A w in front would make a droopy flower.
oh, thanks so much! got it. :)
now why wouldn't the monkeys have tried that, I wonder... :P
You're welcome.
I don't understand why, if re10 is pl for re9, why not a similar plural for he8? just makes me wonder.
If you think of re10 as a group of people, those who opposed the Nazi regime in France for example it makes sense, I think.
At least, that's how I've rationalised it to myself.
or like penitents, I suppose - but I just figure he8's would be people who are reluctant, haha
Those who are reluctant are probably reluctant to be organised enough to form a group.
Morning all, Thanks for the re 9 & 10!
Good morning, FM.
Hellooo Haz :) Dare I mention the sun is shining?
Ditto here.
yay! Looks like th5 might be some soggy people at Ladies Day this week.
The forecast isn't good, I take it?
for all days OK apart from the Thursday (at the mo).
They'll just have to work umbrellas into their ensembles.
True, soggy chiffon never looks good.
Is your garden thriving now that you've had some rain?
It is slowly coming back but I did lo4 a couple of plants in the extended dry spell.
Conversley how are your pots and baskets after so much rain?
We're realising that some plants were damaged so badly in the winter that they're not going to recover. We'd been giving them a chance to see if they'd green up, but they're getting browner - even conifers! In contrast, the baskets and pots are looking good, though they've still to fill out a bit.
Meanwhile the birds are feeding like fury. We had a group of housemartins who swooped in one night, gave tremendous flying displays but failed to nest in the eaves like they usually do. I don't know whether to be glad or miffed.
It was always fun watching them fly, but they did make an awful lot of mess.
I know what you mean, I have to be careful where I walk on the terrace sometimes, thanks to the flipping wood pigeons.
Did you carve the wood pigeons, FM?
They used to nest in the eaves and the bathroom window sill below was a sight to behold. I'm assuming they've found somewhere else to nest.
Hello, BabbleRabble.
LOL and greetings BR.
Hello
Are water levels and weather returning to normal BR?
The flood concerns are over around my area ... still some concerns further west. The temps have been below normal and I would like more sun .... weird weather here.
Has your home ever been flooded, BabbleRabble, or have you ever had to be evacuated?
Glad the flooding is gone. and weird weather all over the globe. Going to take a break, haven't enered a new word in ages and I need to do some food shopping. Toodles!
It's that kind of grid, isn't it? Nothing for ages and then a word suddenly appears.
See you later, FM.
No, Haz. I am about five miles from the river on higher ground.
That's good. I've often wondered how people decide what to take with them and how they cope with the aftermath of a destructive flood. So often you see the headlines but you don't hear about the ongoing struggle to get back to normality.
I wonder if FM found her favourite hedgehog before she left?
*tiptoes out*

an 6/18 clue please
A deer has these on it's head - an6 singular
How did I not see that one

Hello everyone
gmorning everyone
hello everyone :)
hi Annie & Mama
hi lynxxxie, mama, Jean, maryte,
these c's are kicking my butt! Even with Lickety's clues! Ugh!
I need the first ce 6/21, please clue it for me
not the ce...but CR 6/21,,,the first one please
first ce6 is plural of the second ce5 has to do with insects breathing - ends in cis
scouser...I had the ce6...need the first cr 6/21
first ce6 is a chemical so ends in ol
The first one I have is plural emergency situations....CR 6/21
morning all! I can't stop trying circle
I have that one..I need the first cr6
hi dan...
Whooops....just got another one...family CR 6 often have shields and swords on them
sorry I meant first cr6 is a chemical ending in ol
I have cr6.21 a tar compound
thanks, lynxxx and scouser
clues for ce8/50?
ce8 ends like what you do at gym ex etc
I do all my calisthenics in the morning...leave off first 2 letters
what a brilliant clue Annie
oooh, thanks
Stats please for the lower left i for NBT?
it5.12
TY Lynxxx! Off to the bus stop! BBL>
is5 japanese type word it5 like bother with a different start
that should of course be it5/12 and is5/10
fireworks
the (Babble) famous US japanese immigrants
Congrats Annie!
is there a Babble word that means "word path is palindromic" like the is5/10 which could start on either 'i' ?
"too many vowels in this grid" perhaps
today's phantom: scherzo
also I think today's grid was composed in 16th century Germany.
It is a beautiful day here so I am off outside now.
Byee all
does anyone like a clue before I go to the post office?
bye scouser, enjoy the day
not for me thanks Annie
okay then I am off, bye dear babblers
Bye Annie - have a lovely day

Mokey where did you find Bacon ST?
Oops missed her.
lol,i do not knwo where she found it but i cannot see it lol
good afternoon all
howdy sprite
I am sad :( And very stressed. You know my neighbours are in the process of adding to their house, have been making awful noise for months? It isn't completely done yet, but almost, and not that noisy anymore... and now THEIR neighbours are redecorating/rebuilding their bathroom!
poor sprite!
you should then pick this time to add something you always wanted to your house!!
everyone noisy together
nerves are wearing very thin, sigh. Hey Une *hug*
I cannot handle noise too well, crossy. Ptsd and noise, especially at home, don't mix well.
you need a REALLY loud white noise machine -- my mom always said mine sounded like a jet engine! LOL
my wife due the her limited vision is also hyper sensitive to sounds at times
Poor Spritey. :-(
lol yes, I have tried that. But they are drilling in concrete walls ( we live in a row house). So nothing can be louder.
Oh gosh!
and the other neighbors aren't complaining?
oh crossy, I can imagine. Well, thanks all for the friendship and support. I am done whining. Babble will distract, as will chog. You guys don't know how important you are to me.
crossy whispers quiet support....
we all complain, Une... but alas people have the right to sometimes make awful noise to make their homes better.
Aawwwww
my wife gets so bad at times that she ends up locking herself in the bedroom to read as the smallest sound will jar her...not that concrete drilling is in any way small lol
we need a Babbler flashmob that would travel around the world defending the rights of all Babblers!!
I do the same, crossy. The bedroom because it is the place where I feel 'safest' and I put in ear plugs and I read. I wish I lived closer, I'd keep your wife company.
Crossy, she may have hyperacusis.
roflol, great idea, Une!
aaww, crossy, that sounds like a migraine :-(
crossy is lucky that way,i can tune out much of the surrounding ambient noise when needed
she may
no une,i mean even if a radio is playing softy,she cannot read
My husband has this and it's very debilitating
Me too Crossy. I'm a great tuner outer.
sounds very rough :-(
Drink water
hey, herin :-)
Water?
must run -- it's pickup day for soup kitchen donated food -- love to all! *poof*
Bye Une
crossy, i don't know if she uses earplugs. If not, please ask her to go through the process of getting used to them. It takes time, but it is SO worth it. When there are bad noises, (ok, drilling in concrete is too much) you can 'push' them to a greater distance with them and it helps.
hi lady *hug*
Une, have a good one *hug*
People who do the retraining therapy for the condition advise against earplugs.
i try to acclimatize her to general sounds
They say covering up makes ears more sensitive,
Waves hi
well I don't. I recommend them strongly.
But sometimes it is necessary
it is like playing music softly in our kids room when he was a baby..that way every single little sound did not wake him
yeah, if you wear them all the time. But if you use them when things are unbearable, they rock.
Crossy what is wrong with Mrs Crossy?
You're a good hubby Crossy.
she is ik herin,she is just sensitive to sounds and our sprite is going through construction noise hell
damn
neighbours next to the ones adding to their home are rebuilding their bathroom as of today, lady.
Poo
tough
ah well, there are worse things in the world. But I just needed to say I am going through a rough time as a result of the noise/ptsd.
it can be very stressfull
just stay here with us sprite;0
I served a double serving of dinner tonight. Himself was very hungry
I will, crossy :) And I babble, try to concentrate on typing words and chatting.
morning, all!
Yum :-9
howdy sue
sounds yummy, lady. Must have been good cooking.
Hi Sue

hi ARB, hi gramma
Damn straight.

I am already stuck at half way...may need to list early
What the heck! CL9? is killing me. Clues, please?
Yikes, I didn't notice.

oh lol crossy, that is beautiful
Nice, Crossy!
pretty sweet Crossy
hahahaha, river and gramma, I have 11 words and am already feeling stuck.
Mom, the 10 isn't so bad. It's a plural of some viruses have become re******* to antibiotics.
THanks I just couldn't spell it
I bookmarked it, hun, will come in handy. Btw, my bookmarks still refuse to be imported into chrome.
((Gramma)) thanks so much
Whoa! tygramma!
yes, thx, gramma! Now I have 13 words!!
immune?
the cl9 is kind of like a plural of the love(?) interest Silence of the Lambs
not quite, sprite

Hello (again)
resistant?
hi lyn :) xxx
O and Sprite I had some luck with the lollis
hello ((Lynxxx))
CROSSIE

my bad
doesn't seem like it could be, does it, crossy?
I am going to either get kids beaded necklaces or mini rum balls

give them the rum..will slow them down for a few minutes
What is the other 9 please I ahve that CL and the Re
Bye poof
I have the 10, but I really cannot figure out the cl9 yet. Is it a normal word?
[[[ Royal wave ]]]] Good morning, peasants.
so 9/60
hi, judi!
hello Judi
hello your Majestegoty
no Sprite
It sounds like Not Dirty but Cl??? plus The Sun Ri?? in the AM
win the lottery judi? or just living off yer subjects? lol
Means: learned persons as a class; literati; intelligentsia.
Just delusional, Crossy. Nothing new.
thanks lady *thinking*
hmmm, don't have the so9 but did find a nice so8
Still need that other 9
THansk
i better go and refresh the eyes for a few min..that cl has me bamboozled and now i am seeing nothing...semi-poink!
The SO 9 has the same last 6 as that Cl
bye, crossy!
got all the 9's, thank you
ah there it is, thanks lady!
are the cl and so 9 both plural?
the CL is plural, that I know
Sort off
must get breakfast...brb
Man oh man! I just don't get it!
Gramma, which one?
so9 on the bottom of your shoe & exer**** at gym
That silly cl that has been clued
brilliant, thanks lyn
ah, thx, lynxxx, got them both now
Hi Lynxx
there is a so 8 with the first 7 letters of the 9 just have to add a consonant to it
CL: The coast is CL*a* + one-letter word for me + time to smell the dai****
yeah, i found that one first, mom, go figure :-)
:-)
thanks Mom - didn't have that 8 - you know there are another 2 8's that just change the last letter
ooohhh, thanks Lynxxx, will go look
I needed that dumbed down version. TY all for trying. I finally follwed the clue for dummies
np gramma, I know the feeling.
thanks Lynxxx, got both of them
Sorry I didn't know how else to clue it
wow, and yet another so7/8 (same foot start)
lyn, one of those 8s being the 9 minus last letter? Or yet another one?
changing the last vowl for a cons Sprite
yes lyn, I got that, but not sure about the number of them. I have the one that is the 9 minus last letter, plus 2 others.
thanks again, Lynxxx
so8/9/8/8/7/8
there are 7 total words using the bottom of the shoe including the so 4/4
yep, then I ahve them all. Thanks lyn.
theso7/8 is 'foot' plus vermin but change the vowel in the vermin
9:00 on the nose, time to get busy I suppose.
got the last 2, thanks, lynxxx!
nice rhyme there, Mom. Have a good day.
((Hugs)) to all of you. Make it a great day. xx
Well my cat has just turned into a dog
40 left, I'll say goodnight and have the rest of my dinner with Jess who has just got home
thanks Sprite. ((hugs)) take care
Night
night lyn, and have a good time with Jess
pleasant dreams Lynxxx
night, lynxxx, and bye, mom!
lady, it's magic!
bye bye uusue
pleasant dreams Herin, when you get ready to go to bed
He is dropping his toy mouse and demanding that I throw it. Thanks Mom
oh my cat used to do that too. Cats are great fetchers. My cat loved newspaper errrr whatdoyoucallems. When you push paper together to a ball.
O newspaper balls. My dad is great at making those
I want 'most pink' to be valid today
I didn't get the clue about the cl and the so 9 having the same last 6 letters. And they are both very strange words.
the cl 9 sounds exactly like the name of the woman in silence of the lambs and pl
just found it;))
with an extra i near the end though
hi Molly, did you see my clue for the CL? 7.55 am
though my monkey is now in a coma
oh and hi :)
There's just too many bloody C
C's in this grid.
lol Judi
And my 'enter' key has a life of its own.
mine is way too close to the apostrophe, Judi
happens to me all the time when I want to type an apostrophe
I think my brain is heading to bed
let it check if the bed is toasty, lady, and then go after it :)
Thanks Sprite. I already had the word, just was confused by the clue.
As long as the kitty doesn't complain all night
oh ok Molly, I didn't understand you meant that.
hello friends! Guess who is babbling at work again?
hiya Trif, good job *hug*
Hi Trifs
*whispers* Me too, Trif.
tee hee!
boss just walked by, and I had to minimize the screen - FAST!
alt + TAB works good too
hmmm, on a mac here at the office, and it dosn't have an alt key....
what all is new with you sprite, dear?
ah, don't know for a Mac. Apple key + tab?
oop s- you will have to tell me from the PB,.....sorry! I shuffle off. head bowed in shame
awful lot of longduring building noise here, Trif. Am stressed out and not doing very well. Need peace and quiet! How about you?
Down to 40. Time for a break. Need more coffee.
please bring me one, Judi. Down to 44 here.
Morning all
Morning everyone, just saying Hi as I flit in and out.
morning Mr Bob
the rush of june events has ebbed, and now I have a quiet week at work, which is quite lovely. Next big thing is Primo's grad party, but that's not until mid july, so I can breathe and clean my house for a while
gm mr bob
ah, a breather, that is so nice, Trif. And so needed every now and again.
I hope you get one soon, sprite! I have lived through extensive renovations - twice - and it is hellish.
O sorry Hi Everyone I zoned out on Travel news
if they were mine, I would at least get something out of them, lol. But they are the neighbours'. Two of them now.
wb lady
hello herin!
oh dear! That is a misery
can you at least ask to chuck some stuff in their skips while they have them?
Trif, why is the graduation party in July?
Ok Icon check
hey red :)
Seeing if my friends mum could actually fly home in the morning
Hello sprite, sorry about your noise issue.
red, they are wonderful :D
yeah I could, but I don't have stuff :(
I am trying once again to be icon theme savvy.
hello molly! a lot of his friends are having them in these first weeks after, and we wanted to space it out a bit, to see if we can get the pool set up, have a longer time to prep food and freeze it across a couple of months so the grocery bill doesn't take such a hit, etc.
you rock, red. Thanks :)
by July Trif people will be ready for a party as well...
We have builders building houses 2 doors down. Noisy as in the AM but they are complying to the laws
Ah, I see. I thought there was some new trend I was unaware of.
that is what we are hoping for, red. and thanks molly!
how are you doing molly?
officially, here they work from 7 am till 16 pm. But the neighbours right next door use a 'cheap' contractor and often people come after their regular work... evenings, weekends.
hi again all, nbs but as usual I am missing some vowel words for nbt.
That is so bloody rude
and that doesn't violate any noise ordinances, sprite?
yeah, it does, uusue. It is just hard to make official complaints. After the building stuff, we still have to live with the neighbours. Neighbours next door apologised (flowers and all) and promised to do better for the remainder of the thing. But now the neighbours next to them have started on their bathroom. Ugh!
vowel words are strangely hard to find
Awwww Sprite that is sweet of them
yes, they are nice people. The whole thing is tough on them too. And she just found out she is pregnant again (#3) which wasn't in the planning. Not fun, having all this going on while in the first trimester of pregnancy.
wow, those are some upright neighbors you have there sprite!
btw sprite, we have a show here called "international house hunters" and this week's episode was about a couple looking for lodging in Amsterdam. It wsa very interesting!
Do you want to see the hideous POS they are building in my neighbourhood after 8 years of residents saying no
lol yes, they mean well. And they are not to blame for my ptsd. We try to find a way to balance all... isn't that what life is about? ;)
what is a POS?
well, at least they are being nice about it...
It's not hard to make complaints about that kind of thing where I live. The cops will come and tell them to knock it off.
Piece of sh??
Molly, here as well. The hard thing is to keep the relation with the neighbours pleasant after doing that.
ah ok lady, sure, let's have a link.
ok, shower time for me, bbl!
enjoy, uusue :)
http://tinyurl.com/3u6k3q6 Makes me so angry that the upper morons in power said yes
My new neighbor (hadn't moved in yet) was unaware his flooring guys were working after 7PM. He thanked me for informing them they weren't supposed to be doing that kind of work at that time of night.
lady, that isn't pretty. But what do you think of this, our new city hall in Zaanstad? http://tinyurl.com/3qphyf7
that is nice, Molly
one word EWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
am glad you agree, lady, lol. It is THE ugliest architecture I have ever seen. The heart of the city is totally ruined.
OMG herin - just walked in on that ! my sincere condolences :)
oops, that was for sprite!
lol hi JBV, yes, isn't it awful?
JBM when your locals that have been there since dinosaurs walked the earth we are pretty pissed
I bet, lady. We should have veto right!
but of course you've heard of our 8th wonder of the world here in NJ
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_ Dream_Meadowlands
They want to build a 4 story appartment
aw gawd... that is bad too!
this has caused a lot of controversy here - first it's brutally ugly, and second it's being built on wetlands that will disappear with development
JB I see that the architect has penis envy issues.
looks like a cousin to 'our' architect! What's with those guys and ugly colours, surfaces and textures?
that depends on how he erects the building herin
And of course the swamp will eventually reclaim the land
hey ruru
LOL, herin - perhaps you're referring to the cell phone towers? the ski jump? the whole thing is disgusting
let's hope that will happen fast, lady.
morning ruru~
and do we really need an indoor ski jump in new jersey? we have mountains all around
You seen that photo Ru Ru? There is definatly penis issues (Coming from someone that lives in the city that has cheese sticks and the condom tunnel)
Ski Jump thingy JB
With very few exceptions, architects are the weirdest people on the planet.
gawd almighty sprite, that thing looks like it's made out of lego!
that kinda rings true, Molly
My idea exactly, Trif! Lego. Plastic. Uglier than ugly.
We got this thing on the freeway opps sorry was a free way now it is a toll way
http://tinyurl.com/3pcj4s3
I mean, I appreciate a weird building or an extreme house, but ....wow.
oh I fully agree, lady, that is a clear case of penis envy. Omg.
yeah... extreme but subtle. However crazy that sounds. But not extreme and bland.
Yep. The tunnel has a purpose to cut down noise from the road to the ferral housing block (which should be blown up with most residence inside)
whoop! Just hit nbt
wtg Trif!
I am totally starting to understand why our regular office manager is such a cow. This job is boring.....
lol Trif
how long before she goes out to pasture trif?
Good day all!
hi geek
hi Underlass!
Hi Overlass. Triffs you need to find something to do
I can't decide how much to do in her absence. I mean, I could really really really get this area organized and set up for efficiency, but it's not my work space, it's hers, and cheesing her off would be a very bad career move
I am herin! I am babbling
yeah, that is usually not a smart thing, Trif. Most people are possessive about their working space.
yes. I agree. and she is a very sensitive person, and sees me as a threat on a good day, which is ridiculous
Well there you go
I love that working in other peoples pig sties.
no that is not at all ridiculous. You are smarter, more efficient and prettier, and to top it all off, you don't chew your food again and again. You ARE a threat.
(((whispering))) actually I am fairly certain that many of the other people in the office notice the lack of bad feeling now that she is out. She is SUCH a pill.
that is bad. Some people can kill the atmosphere, I know.
O is she a cow chewer?
seriously she fell out of the whore tree and banged every guy on the way down
lol
whore tree?
I will try to get you the address, rurur
I'll go out on a limb and say I'd like to see that
ruru wants to be another of her cowboys
how do you tell it's a whore tree ..by all the pumps at the bottom of the tree?
if she is in it, it's a whore tree
by having to tranc the trunk every time a man goes by
..tri... how do you really feel about this.?
..or all the "pumps" hanging from the branches ruru
snort
YOu guys
Oh, dammit! Just checked the who's online tab and my pastor is babbling right now....Will I never remember to check? Sorry, Stacey!
you should have a nice and open talk with her, Trif. Just tell her: "Sure, of course I can do your job better with both hands on my back and whistling the anthem. But I don't want your job because it is boring, so don't worry."
hi pastor of Trif's, you will forgive her for being human, won't you? Of course, that's your job :)
LOL sprite! I'm scarlet!
and the sad thing is, when she gets back I will resume my usual posture of kissing her behind, as we all have to do, as she makes the schedule and thus controls out fates
*grins* As said, Trif, life is about balance... balancing the kissing up with ranting, all the good you are and do with a bit of cursing. *hugs*
**hugs back!**
I had to temp for someone whose desk was filthy. It took two or three cleaning wipes to clean it
cleaning is one thing, reorganising the whole outfit is another.
her area isn't dirty so much, just desperately disorganized, files everywhere! the files in the drawers aren't even alphabetized....it takes me an age to find anything
OOO What you could do is post it note on the pc www.timemanagementninja.com
and just ''accidently'' leave it there for when she comes back that and www.flylady.net
wow, GREAT site herin!
sorry for interrupting, I would just alphabetize the files. She might even appreciate it later.
or play dumb? Reorganise the whole thing and when she comes back, tell her it was a breeze taking over from her because she had it all organised? "What do you mean, you didn't do it? I sure didn't! I really admire your impeccable way of working, boss!" Kisss kisss.
TMN is my fav site
I'm a little anal about alphabetized files.
hi doxy, good idea
Doxy are your files in library file style where the files are label in AA AB Ac etc?
she has a broken wrist at the moment (she broke it dancing in a bar, I kid you not....) and I am hoping to use that as my gambit "oh, with your poor broken wrist I knew you wouldn't be able to do it, so I fixed it for you...."
I don't have any files, but that is usually how I organize them. Mine are usually names, (nursing)
I am worse I will actually time and date file orders
yeah, that should work, Trif. And if not, you can always add (softly ofcourse): "I KNOW how and where you broke that wrist, dear. And the clothes you had on... and hadn't on."
lol
LOL sprite! When I told my sister about the wrist, her instant response was "oh, please, she fell off the pole!" I laughed SO HARD
lol yes
What really really shits me about loosing my job is there is this one person that is a total messy pig is disorganised and is still there. She had to sort out 6000 plus emails and said that her Operative wasn't one with filing on the email system. Stupid bint should have left him instructs like ''Email Folders" - Matter Number - That is where they live and DO NOT under any circumstance delete that file. Flag the file for delete and I will do it
bint is a funny word herin....
whoops - boss coming...see you soon!
In short and before I get off my soap box I close this rant with Stupid people ALWAYS have higher jobs than you because stupidity beats smarts. Smart people know how to bury bodies
bye Trif, hug
Bye Trifs
*hugs lady too*
Trif, it never ceases to amaze me the "baggage" some offices will carry around. Meanwhile, there are dozens of more qualified people unemployed.
Puts hands up on the Qualified Unemployed.
so true, that
One of my favourite sayings is ''I am Busy you are a moron have a nice day
missing the corner I for nbt...thought isis would work, but I was wrong.

My little Marco has a corneal abrasion. He's been having allergy problem and been scratching

Whenever Bich types Marco, I want to respond POLO!!
New Haven schools....better than ever...http://www.newhavenindependent. org/index.php/archives/entry/lincoln-b assett_principal_on_leave/
Well, you do know that I have a Polo too Molly
New Haven CT?
We had so much cottonwood flying yesterday it looked like it was snowing.
the one and only, bichon
Put socks on his paws with pet friendly tape at the top of the socks give him a distraction
I live in Middletown Harry
We're pouring half a billion dollars into reconstructing the buildings, but nobody is doing anything about the learning.
let's here it for nutmegs bichon
hear even
I am a nutmeg and proud of it. CT, home of the Mountain Lion and the Anhinga
hi bichon
hello sprite
Isis is my daughter's name. Isis Caya.
wife wants to keep the kids inside cause of the mountain lions.
Has everyone here heard of the mountain lion ,extinct for ages in CT, who was hit and killed by a SUV
i said I wasn't sure one would venture into the wilds of new havens
My husband ran into a fox last night. It wouldn't back off when he shined his flashlite at it
might be rabid
That's what I said
we have baby bunnies eating our grass and tulips
There was an Anhinga sighted at Lake Whitney in Hamden
woohoo! I take my students to that lake to talk about water treatment
they won't let us into the filtration plant without background checks on everybody though
Harry Mountain Lions?
Why am I not surprised Harry
thanks to our "Homeland Security"
maybe the mountain lions will control the deer population...and the wild turkeys
fireflies. Thanks all for the wonderful company. *hugs*
wtg sprite
yay sprite
Later Sprite
coyotes are bad in Indiana. bobcats are back in souther part of the state
We have coyotes and bobcats here in CT. I have encountered coyotes walking along the road
coyotes were reintroduced in the 80's to help with the deer explosion. No one considered the possibilities of coyotes not having any natural enemies left
I love hearing coyotes at night...first time was camping in AZ - I though some crazy people were partying nearby
I didn't consider having an invisible fence. I don't want my little fluffs falling prey to a wild animal or unleashed dog wandering around. We live at the edge of a small city
we have 28 acres of woods behind our house so i worr
we have all those animals and more in Utah. Mainly in the mountains, although the coyotes are also in the desert.
y about kids
oops my grand daughter push enter
We once saw a Fisher in our yard
grand kids are good at that
Sorry to say this but you live in the wild life's environment
I agree with herin - though I'd change my tune if a bear carried off one of my kids
These animals don't ordinarily live in populated areas. But people leave out food, etc, so the wildlife comes
we have an owl that come every evening and early mroning. he sits in a tree hunting
good morning everyone
going to get some breakfast and go to work. Have a good day all.

here is nothing wild left here. The Frenvch have eaten everything
we now have rabbits - unfortunately it is all but impossible to keep them out of our gardens - someone, in their great wisdom!! brought them here as a rescue with absolutely no thought as to the damage they do to farming area
hi ruby, I was thinking of you yesterday -...
Ruby urban myth. It is a Koala but seriously sound evil at night
hello jbv, I hope it wasnt anything bad!
I'm reading (studying) Italian history and I found out that Chambery was the capital of the Savoy region

phantom: atheist
hello, Babblers
tried that too Aloy
make it the belief, and not the believer
hi, aloy!
oops, just found the related word, almost PB worthy
ooh, thx, dorens!
hi all, just stealing a few minutes, not really here
hi Doren! how's everything?
pretty flowers, Dorens
news break! hubby just picked up the paper, bbl
thanks flosey, they are my clematis. hi jbv, all is well, how about you?
ty Dorens, saw it as you were cluing
nice, dorens! mine aren't in bloom yet.
pretty good - garden is coming along - I think I started a little late but zucchini plants are growing and little green tomatoes are already visible
my favorite this year is a new kind of begonia (at least for me - I never saw it before) the flowers look like little roses - beautiful! I have it in four or 5 colors
mine bloomed last week, then are gone for the rest of the summer.. are they supposed to keep blooming? I have a problem with that, and day lilies too, maybe cause i have little sun
i'm one of the people who love them, but can't grow vegetables (lack of sufficient sun) - can never get enough zucchini and homegrown tomatoes
mine bloom for a little while and then sometimes come back later; they are kind of overwhelmed in my yard by the honeysuckle, though
I'll remember that when they come in Doren, maybe we can try for another meet up
I love honeysuckle
the aroma is wonderful
I have some very enthusiastic honeysuckle :-)
I've been walking every day and I'm enjoying my neighbors' gardens - so many people are so dedicated and creative
this summer looks good for me jbv, and i will happily meet you on a Tuesday in Montclair for a free movie and fantastic lunch.
there are the professionally landscaped ones - kind of predictable, but I like the ones with the homemade touch - you can tell
free movie? sounds great - where?
lol, jbv, mine kind of has no touch at all, quite wild it is
Clearview Cinema, I get free movies for two on Tuesday, and they have good movies there. foreign films, etc. IN fact do you want to plan on Tuesday the 28th?
(my garden that is)
mine is very very homegrown... loads of perennials all over the place, and thanks to abundant rainfall and busy schedule, loads of weeds too!
my brother will be here that week, Doren (he's coming in for a wedding and staying with me) so maybe in July or August - any big travel plans for you?
there's one little house that looks like something out of a fairy tale - a cottage with lace curtains, small white picket fence, and an amazing variety of flowers everywhere !
no, not really. martha's vineyard third week in August. I plan to go to Montclair lots of Tuesdays and take advantage of that while i can. maybe the next week.
i am always in awe of good gardens
ok, nbt (with help from lickety, sigh) and time for me to go to work. bbl!
ok, I'll email you
bye, sue.. hagd
fireworks - time to move along, good luck everyone, see you soon
yay for JBV !!! congrats!!
yay jbv and i'm out too. later, gators
bye, Dorens

Ooo, a somewhat devious early exit.

aww, sorry for kitty's mishap
she developed a cyst the size of a golf ball about 4 inches up from the tip...4 days ago it exploded and she needed surgery
yikes!
ouch.. I'm sure she is grateful
during the surgery,the circulation and blood flow stopped in here tail and a second surgery was needed to remove dead tail

Oh Helena, these grids are full of made up words.

too many non words in this puzzle
My daughters name is in this grid. Troilus and --- of course we shorten it down to what's here
Cressida?
any clues for either of the si6/18s?
Yes, that's her, but I thought I'd go to the pb if I said it out loud...
don't have either
don't have either, glant
one is a member of your family
thanks rasta
why do I miss that one so often - thanks rasta - perhaps because i don;t have one!
have the other si6/18 - a spanish afternoon nap
thanks glant, needed that one
ty glant
just monkeyed the sn words - new to me, looked it up, meaning handle of a scythe (old English)
does anyone have any of the so8 words?
all of the so 8 words start with the same first four letters
are they compound words?
they are not compound words - based on the so 4/4 and have different suffixes
ty teach
the so9 is the plural of the first so 8
why isn't 'resit' a word - students resit exams all the time...
i agree, glant
i tried that one too
I don't know why, Glant, I do it every time I come back in here for a few more words
found another word by adding an s to it though
*fireworks* - last word was the 10
congrats!!
congrats glant
aanybody want a clue before I go and cook dinner?
wtg glantarell
thanks, Glant, I'll be leaving as soon as I finish the so words
have to get on with the day!!
all 7 so words begin with the fish
4 have c as the next letter, two have r
one is the fish itself
yes, thanks, finally finished them, off to the take the recycle stuff to the depot
have a good day Flosey
happy Babbling everybody - see you tomorrow
bye!

Have you had your cruise yet, or is that yet to come?

Bye Mom, where were you hiding?
son apparently has corneal damage from contact lens gunk (which he is wearing b/c crazy gf smashed his glasses) and is sitting at the eye doc waiting for the insurance to allow him to be treated
they may not; he may have to go through the medical doctor and be seen by one of their eye guys instead, bummer
oh wow sue thats a wo0rry
Contact lens gunk???
brb work!
"waiting for the insurance to allow him to be treated?" What kind of garbage is that? A scratched cornea should be treated by an opthomologist, BTW
that's awful, sue, that situation reminds me of a friends son and his wife, very bad
and now for crossy,s tidbit of the day!!
The split-fingered Vulcan salute from Star Trek is derived from an Orthodox Jewish ritual called the Blessing Hands, used to anoint congregations on holy days. Leonard Nimoy, whose grandfather was Orthodox, remembered the hand gesture from his childhood visits to the synagogue with his grandfather and borrowed it for his role as Mr. Spock.
i am sorry about your son sue:((
some treatments need pre-authorization, Nef
god bless our health care..sitting there waiting..crominal
criminal
kindle - charing, camera - charing, laptop - charing
I'm so disgusted with insurance interfering with stuff like that! Sorry, but I've had WAY too much of that myaself lately!
I hope he's okay Sue.
Cos is your G key broken?
charing?
thats totally messed up sue
charging?
lol charging haha
our system is not perfect,but hearing things like that drives me nuts
that is health care in the USA!
not my g key, molly. my brain
cos, scroll back to 2:31 and see what I posted
okay
ok
lemme get my flight info.
here everyone pays at tax time..regardless of income or not,cause the system itself saves money with timely treatment.i mean what if he is sitting there and it goes from a 200 dollar treatment to a 5000 dollar treatment while the infection spreads...grrr
arrives in Mpls at 10:46pm tonight though. Kinda late?
Not too bad

hm i shld shower. brb in a few
or ,bring it to the extreme,a panhandler has a cough,of course he has no insurance,and why should those with money pay for him?well it goes on and on and the cough gets worse as he travels around the city,and in the stores,and takes garbage out of the coffee shop for a meal.then he collapses..behold! he has TB! now hundreds are at risk...ill get off my soap box now;)
hmm ok looking for that b4 shower then
ty peri
crossy, I totally agree with you.
got it
bbl in a few... nef.. howiekent@yahoo. c o m
yw crossy and glad you found it cos
okay cos, sending you an email now
ok , insurance wouldn't allow him to be treated at the doctor where he is (optometrist so maybe for the best), he can be seen later today but it's a 45-minute drive (because I chose the cheap insurance - really good doctors but not close)
<--- is seriously considering retiring to Canada
we sit back and shake our heads sue..common up!!
the days of someone losing thier home for a hip surgery should be a thing of the past
bbl -
Good Grief, crossy! That is a frightening thought! (I'm facing hip surgery in the near future myself!)
bbs, hungry
here,there may be a month or so wait for a specialist,but you get seen and diagnosed
if i had lived in the states during my 3 cancers,i would not be alive now
well I'm glad you are alive, crossy
i was getting shots to boost my immune system that were over 2000 dollars per injection lol
lol as am i nef
but i pay at tax time,so in the future those injections are there for someone else..easy eh?
sorry,i get going on that topic..hehe..perhaps i should find a word or 2
DH changed insurances last November (during "open season" to one that supposedly costs less than our old insurance did. The new insurance has cost me so much frustration and aggrevation that I want to hang DH by his thumb nails at times!
when i travel i get a blue cross card,other than that i never need to think about it
u think 2 weeks out of country costs me 55 dollars
i
for the family*
I've been on a certain med for 42 years; when I had it refilled in Jan I had to pay $240 out of pocket because the insurnace co. wouldn't pay: I was "too old" to be on it! Then next time I had to pay again $240 out of pocket because "the paperwork wasn't in order" and now last time they said they would pay for 3 pills a day (not the 4 pills ordered!) because that is all they pay!
good lord...
i would get someone used to reading "the fine print" on companies like that and go over it with a fine tooth comb,and be such a pain that they relent just so you go away lol
now *I'll* shut up because I'm getting upset thinking about it again (but you understand why I want to hang DH by his thumb nails)
indeed
What's worse, is this is a HUGE insurance company that everyone knows; and he's a retired Federal Employee!
is the er9 related to teh 7 at all?
the entire thing south of the border annoys me,i have a friend in PA slowly going deaf because of insurance companies
sorry, Helen, I don't have either yet
and he is just in his 30,s
er8 is related to the er7 no er9
yes, the er appear to be related - first five letters are the same - suffixes are different
a clue for either er would be a blessing....
er (before) + sometimes my brain seems a bit ****k
er* (before)
what a strange word that er7 is!
ty..but i ended up needing more words to save me with that onbe
I've never heard it
sorry crossy, should have said that log is too ****k, you'll have to split it for firewood
I have to laugh, the definition fits my mood re: insurance companies right now! :-D
(if I can be described as an organ or tissue, that is)
how is that made into an 8?
this is not a good grid day for crossy
add the "belief in" suffix
thanks Nef, erased my long drawn out clue
there seem to be more than usual, unwords
You are so right, flosey. (BTW, haven't seen you for a long time! How are you?)
great thanks Nef, was off in Vancouver for a few days, and am finally deciding that I do not absolutely have to complete these puzzles every day - I took a few days off completely - not even looking at them
it was refreshing, but I did miss my babble friends
it's good to get un-addicted. I had to learn that myself
It's good to play (keeps the brain functioning) but even better to enjoy them and not obscess over them
that's it exactly Nef
WOOT! Just got the 10 (and a 9) all by myself without a list!
just finished the ti words and had the feeling I had already entered them! then looked back at the te words - there's a clue for anyone interested
wtg Nef
so, the te's and ti's are similar? Thanks!
aaah, thanks for the ers. sorry, had to pop back to work
yes, 4 of them
thnx flosey for the clue about te / ti - had the ti words but not the te
yw teach
yes, ty for the ti/te clue
yw Helen
any clues for at7?
(I haven't found a single te or ti word that works with the other vowel yet. But do not clue yet; I've only found 65 words so far!)

Crossy is in his easy chair,feet up on an ottoman,iced tea at hand and babling on my new tablet:-)
i am at my staffperson's desk because a virus ate my computer so the guy worked on it all day and then took it
:-(

i had nightmares last night about rats and viruses
:-( from me too, jmc.
good thing most of the stuff at the center is on a server so it is not lost no matter what he does to my poor little computer
phantom: circle
does anyone have a clue for ta6 please?
so it isn't all of your personal stuff? It's the Centers stuff?
:-) - one happy thought then jmc
ta6 light brown color + ***reational vehicle
sun coloring on skin + *** room is a room in the house where you can relax
what you get from the sun plus the room in your basement
haha
Cluster cluing!
that's a word I never see!
is the first ci8 related to teh second?
usually it's a number not a color
well that is the thing my personal stuff (what i have at the center) is on the computer that walked out the door
oh thanks Helen and jmc, that old babblet - sometimes spelled with an e rather than a
yes, just change the last letter Helena
ty
but i don't have much personal stuff on the center computer so it is all good
bbl, gotta go enjoy the sun whilst it is out...oops may have missed my chance.
good luck, lbd!
i wish it would either rain or be sunshiny in DC :-(
bye lbd

thanks pms
hi pms
Hi jmc
JMC, I hope your tech guy can sort out your computer problems.
crossy, With the Ipad the keyboard doesn't disappear if you use the 'go' button on the keyboard. It will disappear if you use the add button on the babble face
he is going to wipe the harddrive clean and start all over again

Oops, no it's not. The second is to incorrectly put someone in a chair.

Hi there everyone. May I please have a clue for so8-45 the 1st? Thanks
so8 think of exer****, it builds on the so4/4
hi gap, hello all 45 left here
Thanks so much, peri.
yvw, I borrowed that clue from someone else, think it was mrp
Then there is the plural and the religion of whatever that word means.
an6 anyone?

yw but what are you thanking me for jmc?
Marco has an ulcer on his cornea due to allergic scratching. He is wearing what herin calls the "cone of shame"
for the so8 clue
jmc, thought of you when I ws at the market today. They had pulled pork cooked with Jack Daniels!!!
ok
poor Marco
aww, poor Marco
it isn't too bad but too sweet and NC for me
wait, are you from TX Jmc?
oh you have had it already?
originally bichon yes
Goodness, corneal problems all around today. Anyone know how Sue's boy is?
yes, my son brought me some peri
what happened to sue's boy?
ok, have you tried making it yourself, it would probably be much better, jmc
first re 5 /14 plz
that is a thought peri
There are two schools of thought in barbecue. Sweet pork and TX beef
ivesy, thought you were lil for a momen. that is her icon too
Last I heard, Sue's boy had a scratch on his cornea due to "contact lens gunk".
there is jack daniels bbq sauce in a bottle which my son also brought me but i like mine better--so maybe i should try it with a dollop of jack :-)
re + double consanant + vowel.
did pumama's daughter ever surface?
oh dear that sounds unpleasant molly
I think I spelled consonant wrong. Gasp!
do any of you use a pulled pork recipe online that you recommend - my daughter has been looking for a good recipe?
pugmama even
I don't mess with store bought pulled pork. I make my own.
no i just make it--i could sit down tonight and figure it out and write it up lynxxx
hmmm cook pork over flame for forever. . . . .
really? on a bbq? only write it out if you have absolutely nothing else to do jmc
I just cook a pork shoulder in the slow cooker with a big bunch of sliced onions...then shred the pork and add barbecue sauce. In my house, cole slaw must go ON the pulled pork sandwich.
i am from a cole slaw on the side family myself
ty
ty
hi ivesy
TY Molly, that will do
and a piece of white bread
Everyone has their own favorite barbecue sauce, so I don't recommend one. Really fresh rolls make the whole thing.
Ivesy, you have Lilliann's icon. This is going to get confusing.
I thought she ws lillian when I saw the icon
oh i didnt know that .. lol
okay i have 100 left and i am tired of this office so i am leaving

Travel safely!

i shall..:) call me sometime!
You're very funny, Molly!
How are you, Molly?
Still baby stepping Brooke, and you?
Can't complain. I should put my younger son to bed right now, but I'm glued to babble. Is that wrong?
May I please have a clue for so8-50? Thanks
Don't have it, gapeach, sorry!
Thanks anyway, Brookie.

How's your boy Sue?
Thanks much, wildcat.,
he's good, molly. Has some eyedrops for the next week or two, and can't wear his contacts, but otherwise fine.
we're getting him new glasses, have to go pick them up soon - got the quick service so he doesn't have to be without
hi wild
That's good to hear Sue. Glad he's on the mend.

sorry fighting with parrot who wants to help - pb for us both
No need for the PB, Beth. I don't think that vaguely resembled a word. : D
i got one in at the end, after wrestling him to the ground
Hello all. Beth, let the bird know I want words I dont have...I am missing 90, lots to choose from!
if he was that bright he wouldn't have been so easily distracted by a sweet potato/celery cookie
I would be distracted by a cookie....though maybe not a celery one!
Ah the cookie distraction. Works with kids and animals alike.
78 left here, I am usually done by now - just got home from visiting my mom in albany ny. shee had surgery 2 weeks ago
*Tosses Red a Toll House*
Hope she is doing alright now!
thank you Molly...
these are truly repulsive but healthy for him and he likes them so cookies all around!
she is much improved- we discovered she had a large build-up of fluid on her brain, so they had to put in a shunt. she is walking better, and seems more lucid so we are hopeful that this will improve her quality of life
Good news Beth. I'm sure it's a relief for your family that this surgery was so helpful.
it is Molly, She is 3 hours away from me so this is only the 2nd time i have seen her since the surgery. The first time she was not so good, so it was a little disheartening
quite difficult.
Jim Morrison was right. People are strange. Who would do this? "A 780-year-old treasure honoring St. Anthony of Padua has been stolen from a Southern California Catholic church."
last year molly,there some teens arrested in the states,they were breaking into crematorium monuments and stealing the urns,seem they had it it thier minds that snorting the ashes of the deceased could get them high...
and some other teens died after snorting live fire ants ..so nothig surprises me
Hi again. Not making much progress on the grid. How's everyone else doing
Hello. How are the babbling idiots tonight?
Slowly, Nef, slowly.
The St. Anthony thing is somewhat ironic, since Saint Anthony is the patron Saint of lost things. It's beyond disrespectful to me that anyone would tamper with the ashes of the deceased. Again, Morrison was right.
May I please have a clue for so7-28? Thanks
fish + ***urn to sender.
Thanks so much, wht.
and plural gapeach
I dislike the grid. But I keep trying. 86 left.
It's words like that, that put me off these grids. I don't mind searching for words that make sense. Words that are in a "normal" vocabulary. When the grids are chock full of nonsense words, I get bored with them.
I dislike grid too.I gave up on grid with 36 words left.
Thanks much, jmdobie2
Hi Min.
Good evening to my fellow babblers! How is everyone?
By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! YAY!
i do not like the grid today either... just going for halfway then off to bed for me.
Tired Min.
*Pats wht on the back and wishes him a good night's sleep*
Can't sleep yet. 10 words to go...
Go wht go!
I think I am going to give up on this, I have 83 left. Just starting to be so un fun... Good nIght all. see you all again tomorrow....
night red
90 left... g'night all
Does anyone have a clue for the cl9?
or any of the 9's, or the 10... ;)
re9 builds on re6/18 -- every year germs become more re******* to vaccines
and plural
re9/10 builds off the re6,18.
thx Une and wht :)
so8/9: fish + walking is good exer**** for folks of all ages
yw :-)
so9 is plural fo so8 which looks like it could be calesthenics for the bottom of your foot.
cl 9...the religious are referred to as the ****gy + th** is my clue for you + I love apple p***
ty molly. That is fireworks for me.
thanks for the clues for those long and unknown words!
congrats, wht!!
Glad you got fireworks wht. Get some good sleep.
thx MollyL!
All the so words start with the same 4 letters.
phantom: miscreant
Good night all the lurking babblers.
hi again, all!
hi all
hi, jes!
how you?
ok, jes; spent the afternoon getting my son's eye looked after but he is fine
fine is good. what happened to him?
scratched his cornea by not cleaning his contact lenses properly (and he didn't have glasses to wear b/c his crazy gf had smashed them)
so now he has eye medicine and glasses
no fun
and the gf had better not show her face or I am calling the police (there is much more to the story)
this is the one that broke the window?
Door.
ah
and bloodied his mouth.
(most recently - there have been prior incidents involving lumps and bruises)
she sounds like a winner
anyway I think he may finally be rid of her, I hope! and he is excited about one of his two summer classes, which is good
takes after her parents, I'm afraid
excellent
that he's rid of her, i mean, not that her parents are same way
right :-)
I mean, I feel sorry for her, but she's not his problem.
also the er word is slightly creepy.
er8, that is
I SO hope that she is out of his life, sue!
don't have it. but i found the ee7 from that clue :)
me too, nef! I've thought this before so am trying not to get my hopes up...
lol, jess!
My daughter-in-law is totally nuts and she told my son she was before they hooked up.
oh nef, I am so sorry!!!
fun nuts or scary nuts?
scary nuts. I hope and pray that this girl is out of your son's life for good now; please let him know that things only go downhill from normal
<I am a fun nut
I try, nef, and I think he is starting to get it, finally
fun nut is much better than scary nut, ruru
and I believe you , ruru :-)
ruru, you are a fun nut! ;-) I like fun nuts; but scary nuts is dangerous
er, ARE dangerous (sorry, my grammar is slipping
er, ARE dangerous (sorry, my grammar is slipping
either is acceptable, if you mean nuts as plural crazy people, or just that the state of being nuts is dangerous. it wasn't an error, just a different translation! :)
just what I was thinking, jes!
great minds think alike, sue :)
LOL! Thanks!
.... then again, so do sheep...
ce8 please?
pl of ce6 just before it, ruru
heh. ce6 please then? :D
wow
thanks you two
ce6 looks like the plural of the ce5 just before it, which is just like "thanks" in French except it begins with the wrong letter
thankee
yw :-)
just got the cl 9 wooo hooo
yay, ruru!!!
whoot, ru!
huh, so seitan isn't a word??
not according to enable, anyway
morewords either - my health food store has a lot of it, though...

er + et5/14
hi dc

ty for both those, sue
there's a related er8, ruru
and hi, dc!
et 5pls
The er7/36 word is er plus an et 5/14 word rururocks
hey DC.. did you get a hiar cut yet?
hair cut that is?
and the et5/14 (or its plural) is what Rep. Wiener and his ilk don't have much of
alas not, due to not bothering to place a phone call. Here's hoping for tomorrow or Thursday.
i actually had it pulled back over the weekend cause i was outdoors and it was HOT
thanks, sue
you have that Kenny Loggins thing going still then..lol
my hair is MUCH more fabulous than his, if i say so myself :P
but can you sing?

When I came to the Babble websi4/4, I was hoping to finish, but did not. Th5/12 was just not enough time, but he4/5 is a story of clues anyway. My si 6/18 was the one who introduced me to Babbleland & I've been addicted ever si 4/5. Husband is a ha 5/12 of Babble. Hubby ha 5/12 it because I spend more time babbling th 4/5 I do with him and that ir4/4 him.I always hear his cr5/12 of frustration whenever I am babbling. He has made ultimatums like "it's eit5/12 me or Babble!"I have tried to get husband to babble,but he is re9/54 to play. I ha 4/5 Farmville and he doesn't understand why.Husband st5/14 on Farmville for th5/12 or more hours tending to his farm.I tell hubby he should hi4/5 someone to take care of his farm. He is a hi6/21 & hi 4/5es at my remarks. I tell him I bet nobody in the hi 4/5ory of FB has ever spent as much time tending to th5/12 farm as he does.I often give him st5/10 looks while hubby is on Farmville. We can get into he4/5ed arguments over our addictions. Sometimes he makes me so upset I want to he4/5.It would be sad if I ever lo4/4 him over Babble. I'd never want to lo4/4 hubby over a computer game.We should just put eachother out of our mi5/12y&both give up our addictions. But that may make us even more mi4/5rable.I don't think we can re6/18 playing our games. As much as I would like to st4/6 he4/5, I am getting very tired and need to go. Now I am going to ri4/4 out of th 4/5 se 4/4 & go watch Kyra Sedwick TV show The Cl6/21. Then I'm going to read for the re 4/4 of the night. Goodnight!
Any more details on the sad story about KJE?
hello, all :-)
sorry didn't mean to start a rumor i meant it was a sad story that ru didn't have a chance to harass her
oh whew.. I'm glad she's okay.
Oh good, glad it wasn't a sad story.
I'm drinking a wine I recommended to her and thought of her.
*blush* *stick sock in mouth*
I guess I'll have to start picking on JMC..
start? you are way past that buddy
but....let's start a rumor about KJe anyway..
*Hopes the sock is clean*

*chokes*
my financial advisor is coming out tomorrow and there is not an inch on this dining table
so clear the coffee table to the DR table and meet in the LR?
no have coffee table, lr is too small
i can relate to that :)
and open floor plan
better yet, meet at a cafe where someone else has to clean! :)
so clear the mess into the sink and then you won't have to wax it
yather and nather should be words
gotcha. i'm working in the kitchen off and on tonight.
Hoping God will bless all the sink waxers.
oh no, jess, not an option
hoping God will heal all the sink waxers
use them in a sentence To...lol
hoping god will make a miracle and all this stuff will be filed when i awake
good luck with that
Amen JMC. Times two.
i should stop yathering and nathering and git er done
went to Apple store today. The realigned my MacBook's hinge and cleaned the machine -- apparently there was cat hair in it :) running much cooler, and i'd not realised how very dirty the screen had become
imagine that dc! haha
indeed, jmc :D lol
yathering = yakking, nathering = dawdling
*pours some coffe for the klatch*
i ha4 this grid
*pours some jack into the coffee*
yay!
you could switch to tworving, TO
sets out almart world thin mint cookies
tworving = pretending to work by doing something that looks similar but is really playing :)
oooh, a proper evening banquet!
i think i will run and check out my potential suitors brb
three more s's .. ugh
let us know TO we need to pass on them
njoy, TO
i should go deal with dishes, but have cat in lap.
TRAPPPED BY A KITTY you can't get up that is the rule
has been all my life. grew up in a household of "Can you answer the phone? I have a cat on me"
my son tries to get the cat to sit on him so he can order me around
hehehe
1st cr6/21 please
pl cr5/12?
that's a lot of power for a pussy
cat that is
A cr6/21 word is plural of the cr 5/12 word wildcat17
no there's one before that
*rolls eyes at ru* we know you like pussy to have power ru
ty, TO, it ends with spanish word for sun
okay i reject all three sn words
thanks, jmc :) found'em
thanks for the clues, jmc!
evening, nef
hi DC
yw nef and dc
i sometimes wish the mother across the hall were a little better at figuring out what her child wants so he'd scream less. Though, he could be colicky, is suppose.
second th 6/21 please
I'm going to be adventurous. cosden is coming to town and I said DH and I would meet him tonight
oh, enjoy Nef
there are 3 sn words? only have one
fun, nef!
sometimes kids are just screamers--trust me the mother wants him not to scream more than you do
wtg nef! have fun
his plane is supposed to land at 10:45 PM; but it's raining here so I bet it will be delayed
that is because they are all stupid TO
i can imagine, i have spent most, if not my full work week, with a baby since she was 4 mos old
it will help break up his night at the airport
they are all related, TO
je, i found a dc living nats fan on match for you?
I enjoyed meeting DC actually
and ty seain
we got to spend 5 hours in Denver with delays coming back to BWD
well he would need to be more than just a nats fan TO although that is a start
but fie on this grid, i am goging to clean with 39 left
I have enjoyed the various babblers i have met
*hands TO the wax*
well he is a ctr for military, nice liberal type for you lol
je, i have an extra ticket for Sunday's O's at Nats game.
alas i must be at a meeting on sunday :-(
je, spoke ith two philiies fans tonight who do not think phillies fans are at all obnoxious
firewords
I'd ask him to stay here overnight; but DH's Aunt is here since the fire in her building last week. DH said we could let him sleep on the inflatable mattress in the family room; but I'm sure it would scare both our dtr and him when she gets up at 5:30 AM and turns on the TV
congrats, wild :)
that is the pot calling the kettle white TO
yay wildcat!
ty
then let your daughter know he is there
whoo hooo wild!

Hey, dcseain. Hope you are well and happy this evening.
if you are looking for me to defend phillies fans you are looking at the wrong person TO
i am, ty, peach, and unto you :)
I like you a lot but phillies fans :-PPPPPPPPPPPPP
why would i look for that? i can't stand them
i said, last year a fan deliberately threww up on another fan and a group of fans kicked a man to death in the parking lot, i do not thin any other team can match your record. went completely over their heads.
hahahaha

si
they were talkingm about being at the nats mem day weekend
where was this TO?
s
citizen's bank park
ht

no i was sick that weekend but i didn't sell my tickets online in case a phillies fan bought them
s
hi shoo
May I please have a clue for se6-21? Thanks
that is how tonight's convo started, they did not get that. they were saying the nats fans did not even cheer the team, they were too hoity toity in their opinion
we clap
shoo shoo is trying to quiet the audience
we don't boo much either
lol nthe one fan they said was obnoxious at a phillies home game they blamed on the fact thaat he was from jersey!
*sends JMC to an A's game(*
that is all true, jmc. we're a staid bunch compared to games i've been to in other cities.
t s
(although we did boo chaney all the way out to the mound-stopped to let him throw out the first pitch and then booed him all the way back)
I guess shooshoo's Expert program puts a letter in chat whenever she enters a word.
i went to an As game when I was in SF last spring
bet you were the only person there
they were playing the yankees
ok so now i have 36 left, missing 6 eights

s
i went with a Buddhist yankees fan it was fun
spoken like a phillies fan
mi

Not that I've seen - but I've got 72 to go

(back shortly)
(on the edge of my seat)
and in the penalty box :)
(oh crepe!)
(rephrasing, on the edge of my divan) lol
hehe
4 words left, and i should be leaving to shower...
Here we go again -- no time to finish a fairly big one!
hi jilli
hello jes and all...
not a tough choice, shower or boggle . . . is it?
that depends...can you guys smell me yet?
cr6,21 the first?
boggle? surely you mean babble...
this is boggle, you know, i mean at its heart . . .
cr6, cr + vowel + the sun
thanks gwen
8-D
I see...
i am sad that we have a long cl word and it's not clerestory
ty for cr6, gwen
also i am sad that i don't know what the word actually is... :}
i don't have that cl9 yet. care to throw out a clue?
if i find it, i will do so
It's a pl, and the singular means "–noun learned persons as a class; literati; intelligentsia." but I wasn't intelligent enough to know it.
so take the first 5 letters of a priest and add the reverse of an se4 babblet
thanks, hunting ...
holy crepe i found it. weird one
thanks, jilli
yw! Thank someone else who gave me the clue last night -- don't remember who
