lol cos
im not gonna bother with this grid tonight. gonna watch law and order reruns :) hagn all
bye cos -- is it a stinky grid?
it's boring
No, actually.
Yeah, that it was.
nothing over 7 - I hate it when it's like that
Agreed.
Neazle has finished already as usual?
Neazle never tells. :P
[new policy]
Well, I don't like long words, so there.
Geez Laura... look what you started?!
Ok fine... give them all to us.
"that it was" is a dead giveaway
Oh, that could just mean I'm near the end.
What did I do?
well, I'm just at the beginning -- had to get an angel icon
You did Neazele, Laura
But yeah, it's small and not too difficult. I really want a nice big 400+ word grid with a lot of nice long words in it.
You've started something Laura. Now jilli calls me that all the time.
:P
I think I'll skip that one if it arrives, lol!
Oh it never does... as much as I keep hoping.
we've had a couple over 500 as I recall
early start tomorrow -- good night everyone :)
Laura even called me Neazele? Geez, I can just hear my bubbe and zayde calling me that now. :P
gnight nan -- golfing?
Uh, hi and goodnight then, nan.
sorry stuck an extra e in there, but Neazele is cute too.
Oh that's how they'd say it.
someone pls give me the stats for the bottom corner r thx
It's an endearment to say someone's name like that.
ri 4/5, ri6/27
ri6,27
ri4,5 too.
Oh, nm.
thx I had the 6
Oh is it?
Yes.
2 left -- A@(3,1), D@(5,4)...
If you can... some names don't lend themselves to that very well.
No.
A@ and D@ ? Never saw those in there. :P
di 4 and ac 4
Hi dfm
I thought I had one of those fortunate names that don't... until you came up with "Neazle", Laura. So thanks. :P
have ac4,ac4,ar5.
hi jilli!
thanks diz, got di4 (fish!)
another ar5
Aw. :P
Hello again...
Hi Jellen.
fireworks
on ya grem
the Zork monster was my last
WTG gremlinn.
mmm, I like finding words like tu6/30
And hi mrp. :)
Hooray for gremlinn!
thanks grem! fireworks here as well :o)
hi jellen, mrp!
wd grem
hi all :) hi neil :))
hi dfm :)
if you were missing the same ar5 as I was, that was my next-to-last
and hi mrp and jellen
Well done, dfmchfhf!
hi jilli! :)
hi jell :)
hi jelli
Yes, that was one of my first... I almost thought it was a phantom for a brief moment then went, oh hey... that works!
A little twisty.
I'll have to wait for lickety
yes, but nice
Oh well done, dfmchfhf!
phantom videologue but not in Enable
oh -- mised your FW, grem -- wd too!
*missed
ty
not sure if it even is a word...but ideologue anyway
Not sure either but "videolog" may be... not sure about that being all one word though.
boohoo -- I wanted eulogied but Enable didn't
Yes, I was seeing that as a phantom too!
eulogia too
Yep.
Except the A is nowhere close enough.
Everything else is though.
well, my defintion's probably a little looser - I consider some that have just one letter off, even if it's not in the grid
Is this thing full of babblets and such?
Oh, ok.
Not sure... don't know all the words that are considered "babblets".
I think it is Jilli, have 35 left and stumped
I think it's those with a certain ratio of frequency in grid, to frequency in usage
I don't call any of them that because they're all legit words found outside of Babble... I run into them in Word Racer, Letterblox, Boggle, etc.
Like "inia", where the ratio is pretty insane
I guess, but I haven't Babbled long enough to know which those would be.
ty diz -- I keep finding partial words
I see. Actually my name is too... but Enable doesn't like it. :P
simple words like di 4 etc
My name has been in several of these grids lately.
well, babblets to me are obscure words usually only found in puzzles and totally useless in conversation. But some, like "inia", are frequently popping up here and we get used to them.
Could I have the stats for a U word, please?
Oh ok... well, there's the needlecase.
I don't call them "babblets" because as neil says, it's not specifically something related to Babble
ur5,12
ur7,40
ur5,12 again
GMTA, grem.
well, it's nicer to call them babblets rather than ruder names which they deserve imho.
hehe
Thanks, Neil.
nbt
My mind always organize them by letter patterns rather than meaning, so I've never had particular difficulty finding them relative to more common words, once I know them.
Oh? Why call them rude names? The fun of this is learning some of these "strange" and uncommonly used words, isn't it? Improves one's Scrabble game and other word games. ;)
wtg jellen
You're welcome Jellen.
I enjoyed learning the definition of footle in the last grid...
that applies to you and grem and dfm and chuggaboom and so on, neil, not to Dull Normals likeme.
Huh, jilli?
For me the tough ones are sometimes those with 3+ vowels in a row
words like footle are fun, but there others like some of the obscure coins from obscure countries which just annoy me -- but that's just my problem.
toea!
You want all easy grids with only very commonly known words in them? What fun would that be? I love learning new and interesting words I can use in other word games... the more of these games and puzzles you do, the more you pick up and add to your vocabulary.
I love that word, gremlinn!
yes!
I pull that out in Letterblox and my opponents accuse me of cheating, haha!
Fit as both a 3+ vowel example *and* an obscure coin example.
Letterblox? What is it?
Oh they accuse me of that anyway... despite the fact I'm typing from the moment the game starts until it ends. Yeah, sure... when did I have time to "cheat"?
Lickety isn't up?
You see, I used to prefer British cryptic crosswords because most of them use only "real" words.
It's a game on OMGPOP, Erda... word finding game. There's a link to join in my Babble profile.
No, hoot.
Oh I see, jilli.
I'll check it out, Neil -- thanks!
wow - anything wrong ?
I can make a profile list if it would help
You should, Erda... if you have a very fast typing speed?
whew...finallly found the 4th a word. *my brain hurts*
please 16 to go and I want a free day tomorrow
Oh that would be a good idea, gremlinn.
You have more room in your profile than I do. ;)
Mine's kind of... uh, full.
thanks grem -- that always helps
you have more room than you think neil - I've put 300* words list in mine
a4,4,5,5
I think it grows to fit
I have probably several times that now, hootowl. :P Check it out.
Might keep you busy and amused for a while.
So maybe save it for after the grid, haha.
you make me sound like a puppy
No! I'm making a joke because of how much I've stuffed into it already.
okay, list in my profile
And it's... well, it sure made ruru laugh.
Thanks so much, grem!
How many words today please
93
Thanks
I had lost the regex I used before so it took a minute or two to rewrite it
I'm laughing too. Read most of it before. Nice to have someone on my side!
Thank you grem! I'll even forgive you for stealing my ec word!
Oh hey, good to hear the same, hootowl. :)
There are many here that are.
mrp will need to wake lickety or I'll never finish
I know - some are afraid they'll insult people and others don't want to hear us. Guess it's even
brb
hehe, don't remember stealing words...
Haha, well I'm a political writer and have articles and blogs online, so I'm used to just putting my opinions right out there. I do it on Twitter too and sure, I get flamed but that's life.
vanilla, grem's list will help -- put him in your "My Friends"
Ah, the ec was just when someone asked for stats for a word on that letter
ty
I'm not too worried about the opinons of anyone who would disagree with that, you know? You can't please everyone.
Good night all...
Oh, good night Jellen... sleep well.
gnight jellen
grem you're even more beautiful now....ahh Jil did you say 'him'?
Yeah, I absorb all the girls I touch - I've been doing a lot of groping lately.
you grope in the right places ... mm that doesnt sound quite right
I thought you were a girl at first, gremm.
It's the double N, yeah.
Or woman I should say.
Haha, vanillaslice... well it might to him. Sounds like a compliment to me.
Some people have thought "Linn" was my name from that.
No, it's the icons you use. Plus you don't specify your gender.
Well yeah, that could be too.
Heheh
I guess you like to be mysterious?
Yep
fireworks listless
Hi and congrats, dart! :)
Or I'm just an internet weirdo...
hey neil
If you say so?
Not sure there even is a list yet
I might be weirder than you. Never know.
I don't think there is.. Lickety always announces it when he posts, doesn't he?
I guess it's conceivable.
didn't you say that you put one in your profile?
Ah yeah, I have one.
hi dart
I usually have one too
I haven't for a long time before today because Lickety's been so constant with it.
fireworks thanks to she who after all is a he but you'd never tell
hi jilli
congrats vanilla
ty Ji;, must fly see you all later
bye vanilla
congrats vanilla! :o)
(and bye!)
hi and nbt
You have email, hootowl.. if you're here to see this. Sent you an article of mine and video footage I shot at a protest... think you'll enjoy it.
Congrats, vanillaslice!
hi and wtg josh
And hi Josh.
phantom: hogtie
yep, first thing I saw!
you're in the grid, mixi :-)
Even the G sort of looks like a 6
That she is! I'm in there a lot too.
I are, I are.
I'll be surprised if "gremlinn" ever shows up in one. But it could I'm sure.
I have seen it at least once on another site - probably not here.
Oh yeah?
either Word Racer or Wordsplay
You play Word Racer too, gremlinn? I'm an addict... love that game!
I used to, haven't for a few years
I play in Social Lounge 7 at table 1 most often... sometimes table 2-4, depending which one my regular gang of buddies is at. If you go into that lounge and see "baha254" and "dheval_de_trait", they're the hosts of the table/s I play at.
want to play a little now?
Well my Yahoo ID is "negative_neil" with an underscore if you want to add me on that messenger? Yeah, that would be fun... but give me a few minutes. Need to run to the washroom first! BRB
Ok, I'm back... you still here grem?
yeah, I'm there too
Ok, cool. How do we connect there then? I'm just logging into Yahoo's website.
SL7, table 1
Ok. Do you have a good backdoor links page for the Yahoo Games' lounges? If not, here's one: http://games.amishdonkey.com/word _racer/
No, what's that do?
Oh and do you play "fives"? [only entering words 5 letters or more in length]
Yeah, usually
I think I remember baha
the name, anyway
Oh yeah? She's fun... very nice woman.
A real word nerd like us.
hi neil and grem.. late arrival for me
They are word racing, rururocks.
oh .. thanks.. thought they were here
pretty boring grid and chat tonight
Yeah I think a few people found the grid boring.
it's okay. I'm so out of it today anyway
Yeah, me too, kinda.
Clues are up
thank you lickety
I' am sure I'll need them
ty lickety, and ty for Expert - I've just started using it
Just got back from doing some emailing -- so glad to see Lickety -- thanks!
But it's bedtime for me now -- hope to have a bit of time tomorrow although I have my library job to do again.
hi jilli
Hi and bye, ruru!
sleep well
Goodnight all ---- *poof
Hi ruru. Missed jilli's departure I guess?
oops, looks like I missed you both.
Whoa, less than 100, good chance I'll finish the puzzle. Extra point!
Oh! One of my favorite words is on the puzzle, et 4/5, case for a needle.
Thanks boat, that is my 1st word today.
I do what I can ;)

hi rubyfoo
is it raining there, sprite?
cats and dogs
we had a big storm last night (poor Ruby, had to be wrapped in one of my shirts to settle down), but now it's just softly raining
is Terra afraid of thunder?
we have had thunderstorms for the last 2-3 days. No, terra couldn't care less. He is not afraid of anything, I think.
gm
morning kje
Max, in his soprano voice, barks at it but doesn't seem afraid. Ruby trembles all over
hello kje, are you still enjoying rain?
the rain is over
but it did rain nice and hard for a couple hours!
yay for TX rain!
you needed rain, if I remember correctly, didn't you, kje?
yes... this hardly makes a dent in the 1 year drought conditions, but does take the immediate fire risks down considerably
*sends dutch thunderstorms over to kje*
it's funny in this grid, rii6 and vi6 are spelled the English way
ty sprite
enable usually has both spellings
ty for those ruby
but not in this grid
nope
half!
good work :)
arte
bad work!
did't work ruby
*giggles*
do I have to go to the PB anyway?
nope, PB is only for valid words. You have to try better.
merci, sprite
i am not a geerally punitive person, so i would say no
hmm, generally punitive, serious stuff!
relatively smooth grid for a small one, so far
for nbt, do you have a u?
ur5 - pee stuff

hi all
morning jmc how is the remodeling going?
morning jmc
it is not seaspray this time there is a couple of inches discrepancy between to drawings so i am set back another week
i am trying to be philosophical about as i shiver without a wall in my bedroom
oh my...cool weather is on the way, they need to get their inches together
*Passes a micro-fleece poncho to JMC*
*cuddles up in poncho*
thanks molly the quilts are really to big to drag around the house
the up side is that i spend 3 to 4 days each week in Edinburg, VA in a real house with real walls and a kitchen
lol I just called the chinmey sweep last week as much as I hate to think about the winter ahead
hmm 93 painful words i think
I used to have a chimney sweep who showed up wearing a black top hat. He was a trip. Alas, he retired.
And a funny story. We were outside The White House, giving some friends the DC tour. Dan said to the guard, "So, those guys on the roof...snipers?" The guard winked and replied, "Chimney sweeps."
evening all :)
neat molly--my chimney is a fake chimney that houses my gas heater vent--this time of year the guys from WV start showing up trying to sell me fire wood
i didn't finish yesterdays grid GDI! but this looks reasonable
good evening ((MrP))
hi mom :))
Hello everyone :) I'm working on the vi 6/36 - Any clues?
how you going mom??
hi mr p
just fine, thanks. and you?
hi boat
hi mom
vi6/36...British spelling of a word that means vitality
Hi jmc :)
ty molly
doing ok thanks! fighting almost fit! LOL
hi jmc
Thanks Molly, I'll work on that :)
small grid, but is it 'nice' ??
so far all the words i have found have been little fishes
Ah, got it :)
joy... monkey fish... monish
And they swam and they swam, right over the dam
haha so far!
molly i have a question to ask you
*Listens attentively*
i read you saying in the chog that you hated abbreviations and shortened names so i need to know if it bothers you when i call you molls
i am a great believer that people should be called what they want to be called
No not a bit. More people call me that or Moll than Molly. : )
good to to know! :-)
Nice of you to ask though. : )
*draws line through item on list of things to do*
*picks up voodoo doll that looks like JMC which Molly dropped......
well anyone who has spent 40+ years going by initials is got to be somewhat sensitive to the issue that people should be called what they want to be called.
hey!
That is the reason I didn't name my son Michael, didn't want him to be called Mikie or Mike
*hides doll*
gotta scoot. dishes to do, and I am going out with my mom today. ((hugs)) to all of you
bye mom have fun with your mom
i bet that is your doll mary
bye Mom...enjoy it
bye bye, jmc. It is always a blast
bye bye Sea, have a great day

Good morning friends
Good morning All
Good day to all.
The CBS morning show is featuring a photographer that takes great pics of homeless dogs in order to get them adopted, and it works!
I'm watching that too Scrabs.
good morning everyone:)
That is such a nice story to see. I hope it catches on.
Crossy! So is today a bacon breakfast day?
hi Crossy, you were an icon clue yesterday.
nope,today is a boiled egg,a toasted bagel with three fruit maralade,half a banana and orange juice day
marmalade
Yay for you. Great choices.
Mornin', Babblers. Time to restart the server. Hold on to your hats. We should be back online in a couple mins.
And we're back!
yaaa
Did we go? I was going to say hi but decided to wait...
anyway, good morning, all!
howdy sue
Hi Sue
hi, crossy and hego!
Crossy
howdy hego
hmmm, entering words seems a little odd. Maybe I should refresh.
hi all, anyone else in uk having trouble entering words?
mmm,my word list will mot load and it will not take mica or mice
did you notice your wolf was in the grid yesterday, Crossy?
my whole list is gone!
better hit it again dr_g
i did indeed hego
My words are not going in
maybe the reboot is still in progress? I get a mysql error when I try to reload...
line says i've already entered words when i haven't...??
I got that too, zoom
me as well
the words are in but not showing
any ideas how to solve?
give that server a slap dr_g
no I typed a word I know I didn't have (since I am just starting) and it said I already had it
dr_g is making adjustments zoom
good
anyway I would say wait a few minutes and try again, dr god already said he was rebooting
thanks...will go and play with gorgeous granddaughter for a while...see you later:)
I seem to have alll the words already. lol
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
Hi car
patience all dr_g is making server adjustments
I wonder if I finished?
howdy car
ty Crossy
I love your real name Crossy. Sounds so manly.
And handsome even.
and now it is time for the insanely popular crossy,s tidbit of the day!!!!
why ty hego
The Earth’s North and South Poles flip polarity on a semi-frequent basis having done so more then 20 times in the past 5 million years. That means that with the next flip, all compasses will be pointing South rather then North.
uh oh swelled head syndome
my wifes given name is victoria,so it really has a noible ring to it victoria melbourne
noble
I worry about that from time to time, the pole thing.
*gets markers ready to relabel compasses*
No wonnder she calls herself Elegant
Crossy, you are in the presence of a physicist!
well divie 20 by 5 million and you will get a rough estimate as to when to be ready with yer markers lol
divide
... why owrry hego? ... a few years ago the magnetic pole moved across the border into the U.S. from Canada so all the compasses are pointing to you now
Initialization error. Contact Dr_God if this persists......any way to deal with this aside from emailing god?
Seems that at the time of the change we will be vulnerable to solar radiation.
every he knows jeff
he
Now I'm self conscious about being pointed at.
lol hego
: )
I think the solar radiation is more of a danger to our electronics than anything else - pole reversals happen often enough that they don't seem to be associated with drastic extinctions or anything
Youshould be paranoid, Hego.
use a newfie compass just draw a compass on a bit of paper and point the arrow to where you aint and youll come home with no complaint
: ((
btw, speaking of solar radiation, my icon is a spectacular closeup of the sun's surface
well sue as you know,every 16 years we get a solar surge
Silly Crossy
thats when ham radio is at it finest,the tropospheric conditions became phenominal
get all kinds of signal bounce
Oh well guess I'll try again ater.
Have a good day friends.
tc hego
11 years, I think - that's the sunspot cycle
we used to have con tests and exchange cards when we work our set with a nice long distance bounce
11? i was sure it was 16...
i could be wrong
we hit the azores once;)
Is anyone using an iPod to play nibble?
nibble? sounds like an intersting game
Ipad
sunspot cycle is definitely 11 years (or 22 if you count the pole reversal - the sun has them too but a lot more often than the earth)
kk,i stand corrected
I just finished teaching 3 chapters of astrophysics about the sun so it is fresh in my mind :-)
Oh, poo, that was supposed to be babble. My I pad keep correcting words for me
jack london did a good tale on that when up in our tundra areas,he used to get awsome signal bounce
the current cycle started a bit late, prompting speculation that it might not happen at all, but it has started up nicely now
no,lets get back to this nibble game..do i start with the ear lobes?
Funny you should mention that, eicher, I am on the website Smartphowned--funny texts
and I don't have an ipod or ipad or anything but I do have an android phone on which I have babbled
Nope, crossy, nape of the neck, please.
kk
Nibble could be interesting....i' cjheck for an app
it is not quite as eager about the autocorrect as the iphone seems to be
hello all :)) nice to see good buddies here!
btw if you want to die laughing check out damnyouautocorrect.com
hi, mrp! babble ting; -0 hat ti ng;-0ha tt in g;- 0hatting :-)
ok that is not at all what I typed!!!
hi sue!!! Luv you always!! LOL
what I said was that babble seems to be down so we are just chatting!!!
I can't seem to see the side slide bars so I am not able to scroll up and down
I have that problem with my phone, tc, I think it's a feature we are stuck with
i need to change my profile from 'morphine blonde' to 'something special'... let's see what i find in my random pic in picasa
are we online??
sort of, mrp
had a message about initialization error... icky!
Why do you all think there is a problem with Babble?
dr_god is working on it, I hope - he said at 9:02 that he was rebooting the servers
thanks sue... thought my puter had an attack
cause there is molly
no word list and when I type in a word it tells me I already have it, molly (and I don't have any words yet)
Weird, it's working fine for me.
well, good for you darling! :)
maybe it is back? let me try refreshing, bbs
mm,let me try a diff browser
no, still get the mysql error and an initialization error, and no word list and no clock
some people are reporting that the grid is showing higher points for the end of grid, but showing fireworks without some of the tiles grayed
same sue... it works for some, and not for others
and I tried entering a word and it told me I already had it (and I have NO words)
nope,i get same error on FF,chrome and IE,so dr_g must still be working at it
Okay, I refreshed and now it's fubared.
will try crossy's trick, bbs with another browser...
ok, never mind, crossy has done it for me :-)
yup,do not bother sue
molly, is a bloody pain when it happens, but happens to the best of us!! LOL
Oh, boy, Mother is on the phone. Yesterday she rambled for 55 minutes.
(((MRP)))
((((crossy)))) !!! xox
oh boy!! hope it was ok scrabs!
well, you can chat with us while she's on, scrabs, we're chatting even though babble seems to be down :-)
I am entering words that are not going to babble..... going to lickety but not the game
i never allow people to ramble at me on the phone.to me the evil phone is for transferrance of critical information only and to be done as fast as possible lol
i hope that everyone know that it is saved to lickety and all they have to do is 'send words to babble' button
well, there's a thought - I could do the whole thing on lickety! (I don't mean that the way it sounds!!)
crossy, you are my hero!
does expert work?
:))
(nm, let me try)
yes sue, and then send it to babble when it is 'up', if you get my drift
She does the play-by-play for me--the newspaper, the obits, what she did yesterday, what a doofus my father is, what my nephews are doing, the weather, what body part is aching, ....when she is quiet I relaize she has asked a question.
expert is working fine
*realize
oh scrabs!! happy hunting in that conversation! poor sweetie!
realise is also acceptable
Free association, long-distance tangential thoughts....
hmmm, expert doesn't seem to be working for me either, will go to lickety's site
relaize seems appropriate for your situation :)) LOL
OMG, she is done talking already. Because I told her I was about to go outside to plant bulbs, which I am about to do. See you later kids! I hope Babble will be working soon.
bye, scrabs!
and lickety's site is working for me so will be back and forth
i have to tell you all something
i don't know if you know yet...
what, mrp?
you see that gorgeous little girl in my profile pic??? yes, that innocent little darling of a sweetie who is the most gorgeous and most delightful daughter in the world??
yes...
Good morning everyone - I seem to have a problem, has anyone else lost all their Babble words?
yes, we all have, flosey, we are waiting for dr_god to fix it
oh, thanks sue
what a relief, I was in quite late last night and had at least a good half, if not more
anyway, mrp, what's up?
she is in an 'exclusive' relationship with a boy she has known for 3 years... they had their first kiss on friday night... for 1 second... just a peck!! aaawwwwww!!!
how sweet, mrp!!!
and he has been given the boundries... no touching anything that is covered by clothing! she told him straight up!!
i am so proud of her and happy for her at the same time, but of course, worried too! heartbreak is hard for them at this age... but they have had their fights and gotten through it as friends.
... as father of two ... I can assure you that if you had problems with insomnia before this ... you ain't seen nothing like the lack of sleep you're going to get on weekends now ...
oh, that is great, mrp! May she stay as happy as she is now!
now he is just smitten and being a total gentleman
thanks dofs!! she is a perfect storm!! I am glued to what she is doing and happy she is sensible enough to put her foot down to what is what
lol,she has him jumping through flaming hoops eh? :)
indeed crossy! takes after her mother! :))
lol
and mrp,you cannot be putting pics of yourself in the icons.us guys get all distracted and cannot find any grid words that way:)
I approached him a few days ago... put my arm around his neck and gave him a hug.... 'welcomed' him and said I was so happy that my daughter was happy and glad they were 'getting on well'... then said, 'you take care of her and don't hurt her'... kissed him on the forehead and walked away...
lol crossy!! luv you too!
i am so 'mafia'... LOL
crossy, that photo is old hunny! I am a mother of a 12 and 13 year old now!! LOL
i will put up a current photo, that might help get you through the grid LOL!!
Initialization Error here. Anybody else?
yes erda... only expert is working
... everybody else
and even then, you will have to sent words to babble
and me. cant put anywords in as it says 'already entered'
Oh dear. What can be done?
i have found a heap of words, but they haven't gone to babble
expert isn't working for me either, am using lickety's page
dr.g has to fix it
I assume he is aware of it -- yes?
expert is working for me, but not loading anything on the babble site
having same problem here in england
i am playing and getting words, but will load them later in 'send words to babble', when it is fixed
hi ticky
hi erda :)
Hi mrp!!
hi mrp
hi, erda and ticky!
and dr_god said an hour ago that he was going to reboot the servers - I hope someone has told him that babble still isn't working...
, well, got the V's done! LOL
Hi uusue2...
just email him... he might be asleep as it is only 10am
found a peaceful place on tv... English Premier League Man Utd. v Chelsea... hahahahaha
what's his email?
it is at the bottom of the page usue
got any comments or questions? "send them"
ok, got it!
got the 2 ou's that are compounds, what am I so missing??
i mean the ou5 btw
logie is so a word!!
Not inner spelled the British way.
RE CTA
thx, molly! has an accented final vowel, I think
inge is back!! :))
and thx, inge, didn't have that one either :-)
Hello...
hi, jellen!
SQL errors are not easy to fix. This may take a while, provided Dr. God is actually working on it.
hi jellen :))
Ah, so there's a reason my word list isn't loading?
he is working on it Molly, for sure... he is dedicated to fixing stuff here... ivesy had an issue before flip and let him know so he is probably trying to sort that and come across other probs
indeed:)
I just sent him an email...
oh dear. i suppose this is the sort of thing that is a lot easier to deal with for those of you with babble expert. you can still enter everything and then send it over when babble is back up?
Now isn't that typical. I haven't been able to play for ages, and I choose today of all days!
hello again
sally! I haven't seen you in ages!!!
i have finished, but no firewords on babble... will have to wait until the list is accepted :))
{{ruby}} !
Also my computer has gone into molasses mode so I will probably have to reboot, which I think means I will lose all the words I entered into lickety
hi all that came in whilst I was working away!! :)) **hugs**
Maybe I will wrote them down if I can ever get my browser to scroll again
By the way, just now someone said that an ou5 is the British spelling of not inner, but that isn't so. It means outlandish (with an acute accent on the last letter). We spell the other word just as the other side of the pond does.
Expert isn't working for me either
I just popped in to say hi, anyway...
anyway, it's French!
Hi sally, it was a cute clue, though
Quite, ruby.
ok, all 93 done, but non on babble.
Hooray for mrp!
OK, for those of you without Expert. Go to lickety, copy and paste his list into a Word document, then enter the words into there ready to pop in when you can.
and if somebody is more of a monster is he og***?
Yay, mrp!
well yay anyway?
yay mrp
and hello sue and dorens
Must run now...happy chatting, all!
and jellen!
(jellen's back)
Ok, going to have to reboot, only had about 20 words anyway
Right now I am on my phone...
((ruby))
*poof*
i am out now too... fingers crossed that things will be better later. enjoy the day all (or evening)
I see what you are talking about; I got 56 words this AM and it won't take any more
see you later
Hallo and goodbye ruby!
Bye, all! I'm sure all will be fine soon.
Is crossy still here...or anyone that can tell me how to find the defrag for my system?
Hi, car, it should be under system in the control panel
Assuming you are running windows
OK found that. What do I choose now?
Hmmm, I am in the middle of rooting my computer now. Will look in a minute.
What version of windows are you running?
Don't laugh...windows XP
Rebooting is what I am doing, not rooting. Sigh.
anyone having trouble with the site?
I have Vista but it's not that different.
Everybody, ruru
NM! Just found it! All set! Bye!
Ok, great, car! Good luck!
my word list isn't loading?
me too ruru
how does one contact dr god?
I just wrote to him with the Warning on my computer
He said he was going to reboot the servers at 9:02
what's his email?
I copied this: Warning: mysql_fetch_assoc(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /var/www/html/playbabble/index.php on line 128
obviously they need it again
I have a second warning across the top in the blue field
I wrote him a few minutes ago to tell him it still isn't working
it's weird when I don't know which words I've done
Someone said that sql problems can be tricky so it might take him a little while
I shudda finished this last night
Lickety is working
And expert is working for some people although not me
well I guess I'll try back later
Oh, cool! I had to reboot my computer and lickety's page remembered my words!
I cant play babble....keep getting the error messages..have already rebooted...any suggestions?
wait for dr_god to fix it, river, problems are on his end
several of us have already written him, and he tried rebooting the servers a couple of hours ago
I cant even email him...tried and got the error messages
some people can get expert to work, but not me; I've been entering words in lickety
I dont use expert
"send them" way at the bottom of the page has a "mailto" link, you can use that in your own mailer (outlook or whatever) to email him
will try the lickety page
we can still chat here (which is nice) but that's about it
This is at the bottom of Babble? Anyone know what it means?:Warning: mysql_fetch_assoc(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /var/www/html/playbabble/index.php on line
means dr_god needs to fix it, a bunch of us have already emailed him, godt
in the meantime lickety's site is working
maybe I can actually get some housework done...lol...be back later when hopefully it is fixed
Thanks
you are more dedicated than I am, river :-)
"British spelling of not inner" was just a nudge to use the flipped last two letters the way some British words are spelled. Just to clarify, since I was corrected earlier.
I knew that, molly, and thought it was a cute clue :-)
I just thought it might confuse some, Molly!
anyway I am off to start my day (11 am, should be about time!) bbl!
babble still not working??
nope
just popped in to check myself:)
delightful... will go sleep then, as it is after 2am... nite friends :))
and happy monday to everyone!
sleep tight mrp
luv ya crossy, will do
Well I've finished on my Word list, though no fireworks :-( so will pop back later and hope I can enter all the words. Nice to see you all again.
re7 clue please
Just popped back in :-) Put something into a box again ruru.
ty
it's weird.. it says I've entered words when I haven't
same here ruru.... what is going on I wonder ??
I just signed on... played 3 words and got the same message each time.
I know. I have just made a separate list and will enter them when the site is back.
good plan Sally
Dr_God is apparently trying to fix it.
and this warning just above the tile stats... have never seen that before either.
I have seen that several people have emailed him but it sounds like a rather major break!
Be back after brunch :-))
Hi all, I have this message above my tile stats: Warning: mysql_fetch_assoc(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /var/www/html/playbabble/index.php on line 128
I haven't been able to play for ages so it's a sad day :-(
Mom, we all have that message.
tu 6 anyone?
same here Mom....
phew, then my computer it working correctly. :-)
never mind
everything is working here except my word list won't load.
well, when all else fails, go shopping. See you all later. ((Hugs))
*Has a laugh that Ruru couldn't find tu6*
*has a laugh that Molly finds that funny*
my word list wont load
Help on go6,24 please?
word list not loading here either
more sticky erda
nm -- got it
thx movieman
yw
I sure hope Dr. G fixes this today.. I am not sure I'm done.
so it is not just me??
would someone clue the ar 5/14?
ar + Midas was obsessed with ***d
thank you.. just making sure I have them all..
Helo...
Not just you, sammysmom...
jellen heads to the PB with her first comment
Er, Hello...
Augh! *heads toward pb*
I declare amnesty for all
Yay for west!
hi
Oh, by the way, tomorrow is International Talk Like a Pirate Day!
arrrgh
Arrgh, indeed!
I have my eye patch already
do you remember your pirate name jellen?
I never got one...
I be Mad Jenny Flint
I feel like I have them all now.. but don't know if they all took
http://www.piratequiz.com
*wonders if I'd have a hook?*
*or a peg leg*
*or had lime breath*
yes in your case ruru..if you hurt your knee in the old days
did pirates drink wine?
grog
Taking the pirate quiz right now...
pirates drank wine when they pillaged and had wenches
kind of like Charlie Sheen
are those the things they turned to get the sails up?
the boom or Halyard?
Dirty Anne Cash be my name...
wenches
Oh dear Westford, wenches are wanton women.
good jellen
yeah molly I know I was being silly
run that one by Danny jellen...lol
Love the consonance of your statement, Molly!
so is there some solution to the word list not loading?
<---- Has done too much cleaning today. Ignore.
not very pirate like lol
Aaaarrrrgggghhhhhh!!!!!! My pirate name be ''Mad John Flint''!!!!!!!
what a motley crew
Thank you Jellen. I don't believe I have ever been complimented for my consonance before. : )
No, helenkeller...it's up to Dr. God...
thanks jellen - guess I'll just have to try later
jellen ( Dirty Anne) is Danny your new beau?
Well, I'm hoping he will be...
I have a pirate name now
All Babble folk are learning the true meaning of let go and let God.
Spill, ruru!
Iron Morty Vane
*snarl*
haha, ru!
is anyone getting a warning under the grid box and my list of words already found is gone
Yes, cwestexan...
yes I have the same problem. Must be some snafu
This place needs a bulletin board.
that woud be nice
well I'm very sad I can't play today
You can always use lickety's babble clues, wildcat...
I cannot enter anything in to the Word List - it says that it has already been entered and then doesn't list anything - sent a message to Dr God - same thing happened several weeks ago and then he got the server fixed
nope I can't enter there either
Huh. Weird...
what do pirates ca** about word lists.. arrrrgh
I am entering words there; will send words to Babble when it's working again...
it won't let me
Wild, are you in regular Babble or Babble Expert?
expert
hi all. how do I get babble expert...and how does it work? Thx.
Download link for the new "Babble Expert": http://r46.me/BabbleExpert20110410.zip
I am getting the following warning right above tile stats and also at the top of my screen "Warning: mysql_fetch_assoc(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /var/www/html/playbabble/index.php on line 128"
It's broken Teach, we all have that.
Can you enter words in to the Word List?
Nope, wvteach.
You can enter words into Lickety's list.
thx Jellen Now what? Save and then??? I'm a real dunce when it comes to the computer!
I think you click on the saved file and your computer will "unzip" the program for you...
i'll be back later to enter words if Dr. G gets it fixed.. I'm off to watch football, bathe the dogs, make lunch, go shopping, read a book, walk the dogs, plan dinner, make a pie....
After that, you can come to my house, ruru!
:D
Made my pie yesterday. Dutch Apple.
Mmm...Any left, Molly?
*Drools*
I am making another Boston Cream Pie.. the last one came out great.. I'm not mr pastry guy normally.. but I"ve got a hankering for pie today
i'm making sopapilla cheescake later...mmmmm
mmmm those both sound good.. dutch apple sounds good too...
Oh, yum! I'll take a piece of each, please!
what makes apple pie Dutch apple pie?
you cut the apples with clogs?
*giggle*
Yes Ru, that's it. *Pats Ru on head*
Ok, Jellen, one more question :-). That worked and I have all my words in Babble Expert. When Dr. G gets Babble fixed, do I click on the box that says "Send Words to Babble?
Yup, pcal2!
thx very, very much!
You are very, very welcome!
Oh, you all have made me hungry for pie!
Hey Lil Bit. *Lines up for cheesecake*
and don't shut down babble expeert completely until you do have the words sent over, they wlll disappear from the list, just like the half that i found this morning that i have to find again because i don't know what i had found this morning!!
hey molly! i'll dish it out as soon as it has cooled down !:)
Guess I'll have some pudding instead.
Thanks for the reminder, littlebit!
brb
the recipe is in my profile if anyone wants it!
Oh that recipe sounds good. I've never had cheesecake with puff pastry crust.
it's really good!!
good afternoon. what is the warning below the puzzle abaout warning mysql fetc assoc
Babble is broken. A fix is being worked on.
bye all hagd
once again, thank God for lickety!!
ohhhhhhhhhhhh
bye ru!
is the puzzle doable??
Bye, ruru
nope it broken alright........
you can do it on lickety's then transfer them over when working
Hi See the game is still down.
yep :(
Been down all day
: ((
it was working fine when i first got on this morning
dr God restarted the server and that was the end of it.
Around ten or so EST.
littlebit, your recipe sounds very tasty!!!!!!!!!!!!
yep, i was on before that
thanks snags!!
Funny thing is the chog has rolled along uninterrupted. lol
yes i find that funny too
at least people can find out what is going on
OOHHH your recipe does sound good.
Mine is still not working -- what to do?
thanks
No Erda it's not working
Retype everything from scratch?????
I dunno
Has Dr. God been heard from?
I can't type anything in
Not really Erda
i hear tell he's working on it
But Crossy said he was aware
Not to mention that I've already identified all 93 words! (LOL)
Ahhh -- thank you, both
Poor Smoove.
er5?
er + H*** Chavez
acck! not back up yet i see:(
ty
Hi again Crossy
ty Gremlin
I'm using expert Crossy
ahh let me try the other machine as i have expert on that
you can put the words in expert just remember to not shut it down so you can send them over when it is worknig again
ty LB
yw :)
last ou7?
You can put the words in Lickety's list in regular Babble too. If and when this thing revs back up, you can transfer them to the word list.
NM
how do you transfer them from Lickety to the word list
at the top there is a yellow button that says send words to babble
don't have that yellow button anywhere
The Lickety clue page and Babble Expert are separate things. The clue page won't have anything like that.
Nice to see you out of lurk Gremlin.
Molly great idea
tx for your help.
at the bottom of the clues list on the clues page there are directions to tell you how to save the list and transfer them to another location
Oh well let's hope they scrap the scores for today if we have to type everything in again. However, as an ex-programmer I would think that the system can right itself once this sql fetch instruction gets corrected. I wonder if it is a Microsoft glitch - they did a lot of updates yesterday (or was it the day before?)
hi everyone
Hi Nanette
does anyone know if Dr God has been notified of the problem
He knows
ok will keep checking back then to see if its been fixed
Good chance Dr. God is at the mercy of the server people, and they are notoriously slow on weekends.
re5?
and, now htat i have found them all, i will go make my chhescake and check back later to find it working!! :)
Bye
Short word for body part that evacuates waste.
ty
ri6?
and just in case i have saved my list to my computer!! catch y'all later :)
Brit spelling for a high standard of care/effort (a ri6-ous proof)
ty
tu6 please
tu6 = swollen/stiff, as in plant cells
ty again
<---Dirty mind...plant cells, yeah, plant cells.
ur7 please
Oh God, Molly I went right there with you. :-{
ur + two vowels + ***e are rodents
ur + two vowels + first part of cheese loving rodent
ty bith
uh both
Hego, it's a commonly used descriptive of um...that
ty the one combo I didn't try
Poor cat
Giggle
Well Wild, unless you are some kind of brainiac, it's not a word that leaps to the forefront of your mind. : )
finished!
Yay!!! Wildcat!
go6 anyone
more sticky and slimy
ty Dos
... Has there been any recent word from the good doctor as to a guesstimate of when the problem might be fixed?
not lately
I'm not sure anyone actually hears from him. I do know there have been several emails letting him know of the problem.
Crossy says he's working on it
Dr G is
... Yeah ... I was on earlier and I know that uusue at least e-mailed ... and I believe Crossy did too ... ... just wondering
Oh well then I guess he has the inside track. Heh.
... Bills 24 Raiders 21 .... Go Bills .... .... later days
whoopie....93 words typed onto my notepad... now to wait until the glitch is fixed !!
hi, diane!
a
also, this is for Molly, if she's around: http://www.gocomics.com/pearlsbeforesw ine/2011/09/18
sigh my computer is on the fritz so i thought i would relax with some babble before i wrestled it to the ground
obviously not
And that is another win for The Redskins!!
Is anyone having problems with the game today? I just started and have no words, but when I add them it says I already entered it.
Excellent Sue! That is exactly how I feel about lame, over used LOL. : )
hail to the redskin hail victory hail to the redskins fight for old pg
srcoff it is screwed today and dr god konws
Okay, thanks. Just wanted to be sure it wasn't just my computer. Have a great day all. See you tomorrow.
Hail to the Redskins!!!
bye srcoff
indeed pcal
one good thing out of an otherwise not so good (babble) day
thought you would enjoy that, molly :-)
so i have a weird message a warning under my grid/ any one know what that means? and hey afternoon everyone
It means babble is totally screwed up today, onyx
hi everyone! good thing it's a small grid today.
i am kind of getting that idea, it says i have entered the first two words i tried and it won't take anything. that seems to be my karma,
onyx, you can go to lickety's list and put in your words there.
it is universal karma today
So I'm just sitting here, listening to the debut album from new supergroup 'SuperHeavy' and sipping my mojito
i was going to babble on my netbook while trying to resurrect my laptop
sounds like a good thing to be doing today, Movie
Sounds like a blue day JMC. *Passes some Jack*
ty moll would you like a beer?
i've been constructive today, made chicken soup, did laundry, changed linens, resurrected my xmas labels list, made up some new return address labels, and cleaning up my messy office.
?
so...the stats aren't working?
Love one, thanks.
pretty much the whole site isn't working except the chat, phae
you do realize that if you start addressing your christmas cards before thanksgiving we will have to send a hit squad lbd
well...i'm using expert and the words are going to that list...so will continue
not addressing them, just resurrecting the list. I've managed to have lost my prior years lists and must recreate it from scratch
LBD and I were powerhouse women today. I cleaned the floors, did three loads of laundry, dusted, vaccumed, made the Sunday dinner rolls and have a pork roast and herb seasoned potatoes in the oven. I do not dabble in Christmas in September.
I going to assume someone contacted DrG?
Yes Phae, at least a dozen people.
not much to do here. it's cold outside, hubby is sick with a cold, and i'm hiding out in my office, and these little projects keeps popping up
ok...ty
mY bABBLE PROGRAM IS BROKEN. wHEN i HAD ALMOST FINISHED THE WORD LIST DISAPPARED AND IT SAYS 93 LEFT2
Inge, problems with the server. Everyone has them. No word on when it will be resolved.
My pro upgrade is gone, too! I've been pro for 8 years!
done...enjoy your chat
well done, Phae!
ty...it was a pretty easy grid...thank goodness lol
just now got back into Babble . . . are all my words lost? :-(
does everyone have a warning disclaimer just under the grid?
yup
and no words?
ya is a server problem
only on expert- not on the the regular one
ok, thanks . . .
but with 34 left I haven't found any words in a while so I don't know if it is working
i don't use Expert . . . have no words showing and can't enter -- am trying to recreate a list of the words I'd found when it crashed . . . bummer
maybe i'll be able to enter them later today . . .
I have a word list- so far- but not on Expert...
F

well, that is what it's saying to me! Sorry!
Now our icons have disappeared! what...??!!
psychobabble!!
I still see icons. No need to copy and past in chat. Just read back in chat to find out what is going on.
Wow! I think you have hit the nail on the head Kaplan!
uh molly... the Texans won again.. and the Colts lost.. just keeping you updated...
Dr. G hasn't fixed it yet it appears
Thank you smarty pants, I have been following the games today. Don't care much about The Colts.
The faceless Soodle appears out of the mists of a banjaxed Babble.. Hi everybody :-)
Lost all my words...
*looks down at smarty pants*
Oh, god- it's like in the 60s when the tv tube blew. We have to talk to each other.
Hello Soodle. I thought of you as I prepared the Sunday pork tenderloin.
Gawd. Food = Soodle?
ace
sorry.
No, but the last time I made a pork roast we were chatting about it.
how does soodle related to pork?
This not working for everyone?
No...
As for football, The Redskins won and Dallas is losing. I am a happy camper.
Ah-ha. Molls. I remember that. And Ruru.... please don't go there.............
I hope Dallas gets creamed in the second half
It is the bane of my existence that my son, who I raised as a Redskins fan, is a turncoat Dallas fan.
I'd disown him molly
And, of utterly no significance to most of you, Dublin won the All Ireland Football Final today.
That is the thanks I get for feeding him and all his buddies football food all Sunday for years.
and take him out of your will.
Hooray for Dublin!!
Oh, the ingratitude of offspring......
there was a needle case in the grid AND in the Sunday NY Times diagramless today...
in case anyone is interested.
just trying to divert from heated sports conversations.
Speak to me not of needle cases. I had to freaking sew yesterday and I am still grumpy about it.
I will speak not to you then.
Huh. According to Babble, I already entered the needle case....
No, just not of needle cases.
Soodle, Babble is broken.
It said I entered everything.
Our dear Babble is broken and now we must converse.
sad sad day.
<------- Imagining Molly in a sweat-shop, squinting her eyes at some intricate lace-making...
I can't remember if I cried, when I read about his widowed bride, but something touched me deep inside, the day...Babble...died.
does this mean there is no PB?
We don't have to care about spoilers?!
Sorry, Molly. Didn't realize there was a a rule about cutting and pasting in Babble. So many unwritten regs! Jeessh!
♫♫Helter-Skelter in a summer swelter♫♫
No PB, just a general party in the Babble lounge. Open bar and appetizers provided.
Outrace!
oopsie
Outvied!
outvice!
Maybe someone could paste the entire word list in chat. We haven't had that in a while.
No police in sight!
I remember that- it was pretty funny.

The poor folks answering the Babble Addiction hotline.
No cops...

*sniff... sniff.. uh.. one day I was putting in words and then kapowie.. nothing.. uhhhhhh"
Lie down on the couch, Ruru, and start at the very beginning..........
A very good place to start
well.. I was raised by a wolf pack....
crossy,has the shakes,i see bugs on the wall,i am hot one second,cold the next..this always happens when babble or down,or i make a bad batch of bacon vodka:/
I grew up wanting to be a cub reporter
Those lovable loser cubs...
do you put a tomato on a skewer and mayo on the rim of that martini crossy?
Aha.... Ruru refers to a pack wolf and Crossy comes in, with his wolf icon.... curiouser and curiouser.... Continue, Ruru.....
Instead, poor Ru ended up a roadie for Los Lobos.
N
B
N
worked and made pizzas for wolfgang puck
Ve vill analyse you...... (best Freud accent)
From the pack to Puck.
N...B...N? what can it mean????????????????
was Wolf Blitzer's personal assistant for several years
It means Inge has secretly taken control of Babble. Aaaaaahhhhh.
National Broadcasting Network?
that's what I always thought Molly
ahh the cubs..do they still play the blues in chicago,when springtime finally rolls around..when the snow melts away,do the cubbies still play,in thier ivy covered burial ground?..when i was a boy,they were my pride and joy,but now they only bring fatigue...the home of the brave..the land of the free and the door mat of the national league hehe
I mean what the Puck?
No Bloody Nouns?
Ah yes, NBN = Now Babble's Nonexistent
Whe8n I think of Mozart dying at 30 and Gershwin dying at 38, I feel a greater loss of all the unwritten Gershwin tnes...
I'm just saying.
Bloody adjectives.. no bloody nouns today
...than I do about the Mozarts.
We have to talk about SOMETHING.
Let's talk about politics!
This is all getting a bit too surreal for this Babbler. I think I will go to bed. Good night all.
Dr God is on the beach at the Bahamas.. right now
*with a Corona*
So, how 'bout those awesome candidates?
Goodnight Soodle. Hope you don't have any Babble nightmares.
No kidding, Gremlinn.
Is there going to be a Democrat to run beside Obama?
back to the game.. bye.
That's a good question- there oughta be someone from the left...
Not that I've heard
Bernie Sanders for Pres!
I think I might have to go put away laundry.
DE
mmm home made pizza:)
sweet sausage,bacon,onions,mushrooms,lots of parm cheese:)
So I take it this means Babble is still malfunctioning? (haven't tried to reload in a while)
Hello out there in Babbleland.....Is anyone else having trouble getting the word list to load or entering new words?????
everybody, galli, we can chat but if you want to play you have to enter words in lickety's list
I am :(
it is bringing out the lurkers, though :-)
this is so exciting! Has anyone seen Karin TarQwin in Animal Planet? She's a pet detective and is in Nashville helping find a cancer patient's lost dog
WELL, i DID IT ALL OVER AGAIN, FILLING IN ALL THE BLANKS. nO FIREWORKS\
Tomorrow morning I'm driving to Bowling Green to pick up Amos, a search dog who's going to help her!

No kidding Sue. I don't think I have ever seen this many lurkers surface.
He's coming all the way from West Virginia -- she's adopting him and will take him back to Nebraska
he's a big 60 lb tree walker :-)
Thanks for the heads up. I wrote to Dr. God. I will try and log in later to finish. TTFN

ty Dr God if you are still here
1/2 way
just in time
hi TO
I'm in the grid, and it's all fixed now.
hi all
anyoone have any tips on how to spot remove a grease stain from a cotton t shirt ?
i use oxyclean
it is colored
that should still work--i don't recall oxyclean hurting colored shirts
are all the ou words compounds?
i need to spot clean i can't wasjh it
fireworks.
there is that tide spot cleaner but i never used it
whoo hoo mixi!
way to hang in there mixi
ou5 is not a compound.
ty mixi
is there a list today?
yes TO there is
ty
yes
iwent to the grocery store and went immediately from checkout back to check a price since they had slines and the checkout person yelled at me that i could not go back onto the store ith the bag. i was embarrassed and po's
my store would not have had a problem with that--i have done that to go to customer service
nothing wrong with it, as long as you don't put anything else in the bag.
well they said it is store poilcy , it was on the door. "see, it says we reserve the right to check all packages." i always thought that meant they could inspect them... counselor?
hi all
check could mean inspect or it could mean that you give the bag to them to hold while you go back in--doens't mean you can't bring it in
hi jes
i KNEW i should have sued them when i took that fall there. seriously, it was a terrible fall and i got hurt
must have a lot of shoplifting there
the can inspect or hold them for you.
that is their porblem,let them put some people on the floor. they want to be open 24/7 then they have no one to work
it is a sign of the times i am afraid--unstaffed is the norm
so i am attributing that to the reason now have ahcest pains along with my nausea. good thing or i would think it was something else.I only went out to get ginger ale and chicken soup.
hi all
hi jen
well at least the ginger ale and chicken soup are good for what ails you TO
i must chill and not get aggravagted but she yelled in front of the whole line
i would complain about that to the supervisor--there is never an excuse for a service person to yell at someone for making a mistake
fireworks - finally after all the problems
i didn. she is just load and gruff. i shop there all the time, first time.
gr4s teach. you were really going into withdrawl big time

I have had food poisoning a couple times (both while in school the last three years). No fun.

I read about that melon thing.. it sounds horrible
I am so out of touch with babble. I am about one third of the way through.
was it just canteloups or other melons too
go pbr go!
don't know, TO. Cultures were negative for listeria, salmonella, toxin-producing e coli, and campylobacter. it got better with antibiotics, but was decidedly unpleasant for a couple weeks.
I am 2/3 through now.
ugh.. sorry jess.
just cantaloupes, ruru. Announced today that melons from Jenson Farms have tested positive, and melons from other farms in Rocky Ford area have tested neg, so are recalling from the one farm

put mr jagger on the end of the previous pigeon
was pretty good.
yes
i especially loved the "don't sue us" line about phelps' church they thew in. :)
molly are you in heat?
It's Kevin Smith's pot shot at people like Michele Bachman. Brief synopsis...A homophobic preacher leads his parishioners in capturing sexually active teens, gay and straight, and tying them up in the inner sanctum of his church where the boys are murdered in the name of God.
*giggle*
oh boy.. sicko plot Molly
catholic church?
I have a feeling Smith makes his point about what could happen if those people got their way.
or christian?
no, ruru, it was modeled on Westboro Baptist crazyheads
hmm she sure is scary

of course, it doesn't count...
ur7? Please?
TO, westboro baptist isn't a religion. it's a family of fanatics.
No one made a joke about religion TO. I was just giving the plot line of a movie.
pigeon -- like the ur 5, but ends in three letters like Mr. Jagger
excuse, me, i don;t have to listen to ru's jabs i amd tired of them. i never see him taking pot shots at the jews or any other religion
night
My bad. Sorry I brought the movie up.
lol,i have a joke for you jes.i did the biggest funny in the wal-mart express line the other day.was carrying a big bag of dog kibbles to donate to the shelter.woman behind me says "thats for your dog eh?" so i say "no thats for my puppy chow diet' what i do is whenever i get the urge to snack i just munch on a bit of puppy chow that i keep in my pocket at all times.only problem was last time i ended up in a coma with iv bags running into my arms for 3 months" she said "omg! did eating puppy chow for that length of time do that to you?" " i said no,i was crossing a road and stopped to sniff a poodle butt and was run over by a bus"....
rofl cross!

My sister expressed her memories of G-Ma through a letter to her four month old son.It was very touching

Hi gremlinn! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid.
Hi carleekat! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
hi there minver... all is well herre about about there?
I'm well. Went to Vermont for Grandmother's funeral.
I'm so sorry minver...i hope was peaceful and a celebration of her life
anybody know what the er5,16 means?
L's Loaded! 7 left
dont have it yet jes
When I clicked on the ? it said "no dictionary results".
It seems to mean "disgorge noisily (food/drink)" in Latin - dunno if it's the same word
carleekat, do U want a clue for the er 5/16 word yet?
ok. thanks, grem :)
And if it's the same as the word sticking an "a" on front, it means "another name for verdigris"
good grief no minver..i only just started ..but thanks :)
Verdigris in turn is: 1. A blue or green powder consisting of basic cupric acetate used as a paint pigment and fungicide. 2. A green patina or crust of copper sulfate or copper chloride formed on copper, brass, and bronze exposed to air or seawater for long periods of time.
I'm thinking er5 is *not* the same as the Latin word
nice....:-) The site is working ! Now I just have to type in 93 words from my notebook.... that is the route I took to play the game today.
fireworks :) last word was tu6,30.
*~*~*POMPOM TOSS*~*~*for jes
Congratulations jesdraggon on fireworks! Good for U
E's Ended! 6 left
er 5 or aerugo is the green film that forms on copper as in the Statue of Liberty.
Hello BabbleRabble! How are you? Welcome to the grid
Toeing the PB line :)
Then it should be spelled with the "A". Babble annoys me with words like this.
And that was not towing the PB line, that was a PB offense, as in putting a word in chat.
I didn't think it counted if it was as a substring
C's coddled! 5 left
Like I could say "phantom outrate" even though the ra4 is in the grid
Doesn't matter. The "rules" (if you will) are overlooked here now. Someone told me that people clue in the first hour and that used to be a BIG no no.
don't worry about it gremlinn..... the PB is vastly over-ra4/4 d
I jumped into the PB willingly earlier because there was bacon.
How fun to be chastised by the esteemed babble elitists.
LOL
Hi dianedecoder! How are you doing? Welcome to grid
Hey don't look at me, I'm just a Babble peon.
<----carlee keeping her fingers quiet
The lurkers appreciated the clue! :)
It's just a game for Pete's sake..... I'm no elitist and I play for fun and TRY to abide by the rules.
I clue when someone asks for a clue
Hi Minver
Which isn't quite often in the first hour, but it can happen, because a lot of people are eager for the NBT
Hello ChampFit! How are you? Welcome to the puzzle.
Great thank you!
O's Outdone! 3 left
Thing is, it's easy to turn chat off if you don't want clues. I do that all the time.
Hello all, how is Babbleonia
Yep, Molly - I frequently do that
Hello wht! How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle.
Hey Wht. Better than it was when people were having DT's because Babble was broken.
Babbleeding!
V's Vindicated! 1 left
Well, no good deed goes unpunished. So, I will leave to let the snobocrats preach to the plebeians without distractions. I wish you well.
i apparently missed the word.... going back to lurk mode
Oh, dear. I guess I missed that. I just logged on this evening.
I am done! I have fireworks! tu6/30 was my last word
grats!
*~*~*POMPOM TOSS*~*~*for minver
I'll be here off and on to clue for the rest of the night
10 to go...fun little grid
Go carleekat go!
yay minver!
4....
and finished... fun little grid... bout time we had a fun one
Congratulations carleekat on fireworks! Good for you
I feel bad that I can't do your cool pompom toss like U
thanks minver...
ok... i think i am off to bed...
so i can get up and read for school....
night night all
congrats carlee
Goodbye carleekat! I will see you tomorrow in the log
hi again, all!
hey sue
typed in my 49 words from the list I saved...
Hello uusue2! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
had one from each letter but not one from each tile
hi, min and gremlinn!
btw I put a link to a video of fireworks in my profile for those who missed them while babble was down :-)
Fireworks
yay, wht!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It was nice to have a small grid for a change.
Congratulations wht on your fireworks! Good for you
Congratulations uusue on fireworks? Hooray for you!
Did you put a copy of that vi 5/18 in the Penalty Box?
oops! No fw for me yet, but I will enjoy watching them vicariously from the PB! and thx for pointing out the word, I'd missed it
but nbt now, thanks to a few made-up words
It's not fair to make up words! Only use dictionary words!
Hmmpf. They're all made up too.
Why is it not fair, gremlinn, Enable makes up words all the time.
Enable is exempt from the rules.
Grem, I would send you to the PB for ru4, but talk of that went very badly last time. So I'll just pass you a slice of apple pie.
Well, Good night all. And Molly, you are not a peon, you are a regent.
I already sent myself to the PB for that word - no double jeopardy!
Goodnight Wht, and thanks. I'm certainly not a snobocrat. : P
night, wht!
Plus, I pluralized it this time anyway - but...did you say pie?
Yes Grem, you may have pie in or out of the PB. : )
*jumps in the Pie Box*
pie?
what kind?
Dutch apple
cute, grem - PB always makes me think of peanut butter...
*Cuts a slice for Harpjane*
so maybe it is peanut butter pie? (surely there is such a thing)
Hi harpjane! How are you doing?Welcome to the grid.
and hi, harpjane!
Probably...there are cookies, after all.
Oh, there are wicked recipes for peanut butter pie.
im good thanks, minver
and you?
what are the stats for the lone c please?
ci5/18
ci 5/18

ir4/5
oops, iv5/18
that's pretty tricky, since there's no r next to it!LOL
iv 5/18
oh doh! thanks.. I kept trying it as a superlative..LOL
Hello m9f9l! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid.
we university types think of that word right away...
thanks nbt
Do you actually have iv5 walls at your school Sue?
There is no di 4/5 need for a story today, but here is one anyway. Hubby and I always ar5/16 over Babble. He does not ca4/5 for this game. He regrets the day he told his friend Ca5/12 to show me how to play the game. However, I'm gr5/14ful to him for showing me how to play.We ar5/16 with such vi6/36 that we say cr5/14 things. Our fights can be gr 5/16ling at times because we will fight for over an ho 4/5. My husband can be an A-ho4/5!He gets ir4/5 whenever I babble.I have been a lu5/12 and tried to lu 4/5 him to Babble, but to no avail.He is such an og 4/6 when it comes to Babble. On a scale of 1 to 10 my husband would ra4/4 Babble negative 100. Husband would like to enforce a no Babble ru4/5. Whenever I hear his car pull in,I try to leave no tr 5/12 of Babble on the laptop by closing all the windows. Husband is being a he 4/5 and wants computer.I gr 4/7 at what he might do if I don't give it to him. I'm going to te 4/4 myself away from laptop and go watch My Name is Ea4/4 or I might watch Will and Gr5/16. I have vi4/8 to ra 4/5 back here to help clue later. By the way, none of this story is tr 4/5.
some, yes, but there were more at Yale :-)
nbt, nbs
Ah yes, I have seen pictures of Yale.
thx, min, that got me my next-to-last word!
fireworks!

Hi Sue
Hey there, uusue.
we're doing fine. I've been addicted to another word game for a while
Awww
there are a couple of Barred Owls hooting up a storm around the house tonight.
COol. Do they really HOoooot
And I am asking not being a smart alec
you should google their calls....sort of a combination between a whooo and a groan
you would think owls wouldn't have that much to talk about at this time of year but you'd be wrong
Just looked it up an Youtube. Simply amazing
they are beautiful creatures!
I have never heard an owl hoot. That is why I asked
do you not have owls where you live?
ok, all, I am off to bed - see you all tomorrow, and may Babble stay healthy!
they all sound different
