I love yours, flosey, and the sentiment therein
ty diz finally found the do's... hi jili
hi dee hi
thanks Jilli
is this a toughie?
your icon brings back memories jil- nana taught me to embroider when i was 7 and i am still at it
wow s'mom, interesting to hear - I don't know anyone who is doing it anymore, my mom did a lot of embroidery

hello all - i have entered tragedy at least 5 times
good for you smom
It's fine davurs. I've played on OMGPOP for a while now... a lot. No problems. Same with a lot of people I know. m9f9l plays a lot on there too.
And featherbee.
And Pinikula too.
I loved doing a sampler from Williamsburg -- also did some as a kid.
Oh, and dcseain... ask them.
I'm playing pool right now!LOL
yes flosey- i had to work 1/2 half hour every day... and if it did not suit her ( which was often in the beginning) she would undo it and i had to do it all over. i learne quickly and well and graduated to crewel but still like embroidery better
well taught then s'mom
Hello, everyone. Hey ursh, you still there? We're coming to your lovely country on Thursday. Can't wait!
While babbling, Mary?
Oh lovely dofith - where you going?

hello all :o)
hello Nonnie
church women's
Will be our 3rd visit - 1st time a few yrs ago when son married his bride in Kruger NP, then last year we visited them in Capetown and also travelled across to Port E and Addo, this time just CapeTown
the most recent?
hi nonnie nonnie no
I kind of slept through it...
hello jilli!
Hi jilli!
yup
lol I did too. I dvr'd it and tried to watch it this a.m. big mistake. I'm going to try again later.
hi NonnieLight.
sang at a funeral earlier in the day.. and then attended a baby shower. I was beat.
hello neil! How are you?
but if I hadn't fell asleep, I would have gone out again.. and got things out of my car and locked it! And wouldn't have had my camera stolen :-(
Oh, so sorry to hear about your camera.
yeah.. me too!LOL
SO glad I got the pictures of the baby and got them uploaded before that happened though!
phantom category/categoried
Oh getting there I guess, thanks. Getting over a cold and exhausted after getting up too early to drive down to LA then apartment hunting. You?
Did you find an apt, neil?
I've been fighting a sinus thing but other than that...fine. Counting down the weeks until two more grandbabies get here. Apartment hunting sounds fun!
apartment hunting sounds... tiring!
Not definite yet jilli. Seeing another one tomorrow.
(I hate looking for dwellings)
happy hunting, neil!
good luck Neil!
Yeah and stressful... swore I would never live there too. Not to leave Santa Cruz for that place. But... ugh. I've made the decision now so going ahead.
I don't...I love seeing new places and how others decorate. I don't have an eye for that kind of thing.
me neither!
way to stick to your guns Neil. I guess? It will be a good thing?
Neil, does this put you closer to your family?
phants -- egret and regret
Stick to my guns? Think you misunderstood there, Mary?
well.. you're new decision.
Yes Nonnie... a couple of them are here in LA [staying with one of them at the moment] and another is closer to here than wherre I'm moving from.
No, I didnt'
Ugh. Try that again: No, I didn't "stick to my guns" because I tried to resist moving own here. But now I am... they wore me down.
And I'm exhausted and need to get off here. Have a good night everyone... take care.
goodnight neil -- hope you'll feel better tomorrow
nite Neil.
You too, Neil and good luck with the apartment hunting.
I have the first three de's.....may I please have a clue for any of the others? Thanks

that is great :)
time to hang up my laundry, back in a bit
back
good morning. Any news on mrp? I kept checking until quite late, my time, but the last thing I read was that they were sending out helicopters looking for her husband!
hi rubyfoo, I have missed the whole story. What is up?
from what she said, starting at about 7:30PM (my time), Lickety had disappeared and she was frantic.
ah ok. Then I hope he has showed up again.'
First she was driving around looking for him (middle of the night) and, finally, called the police. In Babble, we were all telling her to stay home, not go driving around in the dark, etc. But, after that, I don't know what happened. He had left on foot after some sort of dispute with her.

It was awful a she was hysterical and crying. Hego and Sally and I were all telling her NOT to go out again
looks like he needed some time for himself. Can't be easy for him either atm... and of course mrP shouldn't go out after him. but she is a headstrong lady.
that's what we were saying, to leave him alone to so** things out
yep, by far the wisest way to go.
we were all really worried as it sounded like she'd behave rashly
I checked, no news in her profile
my guess is, if he were still missing, she would be here on babble to vent.
I hope that no news is a good sign
silly question, but has lickety put up a list?
yes but that is an automatical thing, most days
but wouldn't he have to be at home?
I don't believe so, as far as I know it updates automatically. But because it uses another version of enable, sometimes it has to be adjusted manually. As far as I can see, this grid should be fine without actual adjusting.
I never use his list, but I thought he had to do something
I can always see if the list is up, because in my babble browser the box flashes green for new words and red for wrong words.
(sosmebody's dog is almost in here!)
lol yes, and almost his nickname too: terror.
hahah
time to kill off the Ts. I have 16 left! All Ts.
first 60 were easy but will have to save the rest. If you hear anything, pls send me an e-mail
will do, but will be done soon here.
ooh, just got 2 9's on my own. Amazing!
wtg :D
fireflies
yay sprite!
90 for me
nice going! Have fun and keep me posted :)
Ruby, still here?
need one more for half! ocd hahah
got it, back after lunch
{{molly}}
Mr. President posted sometime last night that Lickety is at his Father's house. That's all I know.
ty for that, I was really worried about her
the last I had heard, at 11PM my time, was that helicopters were looking for him!
*poof* with 95 left
Knock, knock. Anyone there?
anyone there who?
lol. Good morning.
gm
fast grid so far
Yes, not bad.
Some nice building in the grid.
down to 49... time for a coffee refill
Exactly half here.
think i will list and fiish this before work
Have 85 to go now. Think I'll have a break and come back later. Bye for now.
hagd
FW!
ow must get ready for work... hagd all
Good morning Babbletopia!
hello everybody
anybody?
Just me, Ruby
stats for the 10?
that's a lot!
I'm back - and just in time to say Hi to ruby!
{{sally}}
that was some night, last night!
I would like to be a fly on the wall when the wanderer returns :-)
did you hear that he turned up at his father's house?
Yes, I looked back in the chog to find out what had happened.
I'm only 1/4 of the way through and hitting a wall. Not good.
just found the y babblet; I always forget that one
do you have the 10?
I just found the whale :-)
I've been looking for it, recognized the prefix, but still looking
Ruby, re 10/84
Definitely no 10 here. I have one 8 (plural of where you might watch a play or film). American and British spellings on the singular.
I have three 9s, but not the 10 yet.
ty, molly, I can always count on you :D
my best words, on my own, are ca8/50 and 9/66
given the monkeys an extra banana
Good for you Ruby. It's nice to find the larger words without help.
morning all
but still hunting the 10!
hello carlee
Morning Carlee
hi molls...ruby
I can tell you what the 10 begins with if you want.
molly told me and I'm fiddling around,....hello boat
sliding grid over to where i cant see it... so i will get work done when i wake up
Hey :)
yay, nbt (but still no 10!
morning, all!
Working on the R words now, ruby. If I get it I'll toss you a clue :-)
{{sue}}
hi, ruby! How have you been?
Ruby do you want a clue or are you trying to find it on your own? Morning Sue.
hi sue
if nobody else minds, I'd be very grateful -- but it may be too soon for them
I'm OK, thank you, enjoying Indian summer with no Indians
Why can't 'redig' be a word??? People do it all the time, grr...
The first part describes clothing or decor of the past...the second part is the past tense of what you do on stage
{{molly}} thank you
hi, molly, carlee, and boa!
Hey sue :)
Got it - thanks Molly
did u get your marking done sue?
this is a nice grid
I agree about redig Boat
lol, ty :)
I also think people 'recater' like when the caterer screws up the food and they have to bring out new food.
ok..time to get on the shuttle to take me to the other campus... back in 30 min
Oh, and two other words off that 10.
But, noooooooooooooo, Enable just isn't up on that!
and redigest is a nice phantom
nope, carlee, the papers are still sitting in my backpack
but today I have a fair amount of time so should get them done with no trouble
There are several good phantoms today.
Redigest, like a cow, lol
Very good Boat, gold star for you. : )
that's what I was thinking, boat
And I so want to enter React!
react and regret
is decat when you shoo one out of the house
hello kaplan
Oh! Thank you for the gold star :) I haven't gotten one of those in aeons!
Not in this house. Stern frown.
Hello rubyfoo.
Decat, no doubt.
Decat is when you rid yourself of one.
my Ruby loves them. One comes and hangs out in front of the house near her, the two of them watching "bird TV"
lol, bird TV
If derat is an word, and it is in Enable, so should decat and dedog be.
she sits there for hours
I agree Kap. Where is the complaint department?
I love dedog
wouldn
toops
This is it. complain away.
wouldn't an oarer be someone who, well, oars?
I tried it, too, sue
Deflea, debug, derabbit.
We have some bird feeders on suction caps on our windows, and the felines (whoops, nearly!) sit for hours on the windowsill nose to the glass.
despouse
(another way to say divorce)
I saw a Hoarder episode where a house literally had to be derabbited. Poor little critters
Despouse = delouse.
I'm into it!
<---Laughing at despouse
oh yeah!
Is derabbiting when you get rid of the dust bunnies?
Delicious!
no, dedust
Defect.
Oh Boat, how can you watch those shows about hoarders? They gross me out.
Deedledee
this is ao good, I'm actually laughing!
ok, running late, on with the day!
my sister,(who is one) sends me clippings from the Times about hoarders
Good Ruby, laughing is good for you.
I'm starting to think Yetta has an "in" with the grid master, like Peri.
Dust bunnies, if only. No, the bunnies were left to their own devices and had over run the house. They had chewed through walls and had their own passage ways to get around. It was astounding and massively unsanitary.
How?
I'll meet you in the pb, molly, that's the babblet
Being in the grid often Kap.
Oh, yes.
Not quite ruby
But I am not a word, although I do play one on TV.
I've only been in it once and everybody thought it was NancyBoy, so I didn't say anything
sorta
Oops, off to rustle up some breakfast in the PB. Yeah Sally, general rule is you can't use a word or a part of the word, or so I understand.
Oh, I had a house-sitting gig earlier this summer for a month and the house came with cable, something I don't have. So I got to watch all kinds of thing I normally don't get to watch. I was like a kid in a candy store! *big cheesy grin*
I won't tell anybody, molly!
Al n, Y***a, always sit togedda, watching TV every single night...
lol Molly, you just did! I know the rule, but yetta is not a word!
word within a word.
Yes I did and that is why I am making breakfast in the PB
worlds within worlds.....
good morning babblers!
hated
Peace without end, Amen
well. starting off with a bang. :X
hello evaN
Oo, thanks Eva! ;)
Yes Eva, I ha5 that game last night.
amen to that, mols!
Hop in there for some breakfast, Eva.
Erect and react are NOT here? I regret that!
Sausage, egg and cheese on bagels is almost ready. And the bran muffins for you know who.
phantom:redactor
I thought that was French, anyway
::steals tray of sausage, egg, and cheese::
can't get decent sausage here, only yucky diots
My egrets have flown!
Oo, egg and bagel sounds good MollyL, yum :)
Funny, because I don't know if egrets even fly.
as have my regrets
How could I have married a man who eats onions at breakfast???
Egrets fly
I am off to have a neck MRI. SYL.
Onions at breakfast? Just counter with garlic :)
"my" hawk is hanging around, watching the bird feeder. She is gorgeous!
or a gun....
Onions are "breakfast approved". Onions in home fries, sliced onion on a bagel, onions in a western omelet.
I make DH an egg-white omelet with onions and 3 kinds of hot peppers plus tabasco
Hawks are beautiful birds Ruby.
Onions in homefries during camping...now that's good stuff :)
it's South Beach-ish
she is lovely and misses the little birds but lands on my window box
Do you know what sort of hawk she is?
One of the best smells ever is potatoes and onions frying in a pan. Ah!
so I get a really close look and she can't see me
She is an "epervier d'Europe" grey and white. The males have reddish throats
Concur MollyL :)
welp, speaking of breakfast, i must go forage for some!
I keep a bird book by that window
I'm sure she's the same one that came in the house
Quick google. A kind of sparrowhawk then. Lovely, and very fast.
it's a great way of passive bird-watching, having a feeder just outside a window
she weighs about 5 lbs (just guessing, but from carrying her outside)
She got trapped?
the other day she picked a green finch off the feeder, hit the window, and the little bird shook itself and flew off!
she flew in the front door; I think she needs glasses!
Morning ladies
she pooped all over the place in her panic, but when I held her firmly by the shoulders, she settled down
hello hego
Just checking in to see if Lickety got found
Yes, he was at his Father's house.
he turned up at his father's house, molly read and reported!
Oh my, and all that.
Oh my, and all that.
pretty hair-raising, last night, eh Hego?
Well, I'm glad all is okay.
I worry about that girl Ruby
I was picturing a panicked mrp. crying and driving around in the dark!
I was concerned about the kids too.
Oh, so Lickety was found/turned up OK? That's good to hear. I was wondering.
I was truly scared for her
I wonder why she didn't check with the family firsy.
uh first.
when we asked her if he had family in the area, she said no
I was too Ruby
and he didn't take the car
She said she called her mother in law, but why not the father?
It was all kind of surreal.
all very strange.....
snap, hego
Here you are playing a game and end up doing crisis intervention.
lol Ruby
I have to go, cooking dinner already, so that I can lie down for a while
Not the first time hego :-(
lol hego :)
Right Sally
Byr Rube
I think that is part of the reason we're here for each other. I have certainly been helped by you babblers more than once!
but I don't think I ever scared anybody
I remember Ruby
But this was really extreme
like that time somebody in the US did an intervention for zzoozz
I hope they'll be okay.
I would have thought the police would have checked with family members before starting a search.
and sally solved my heron problem!!!
Ah! I got the 10 :)
yes that was extreme also
hi folks, hi and bye ruby!
Yes, ruby, if it's just a moan, but speaking for myself only, if I were in that sort of panic I would not be on Babble crying my heart out, but on the phone. Not criticising mrp, you realise, just not understanding it.
good for boat!
I remember that Ruby, and I miss Zooz.
It's a past tense of the re 8/45.
yes, many questions, I think our collective blood pressure went up a few points last night
{{JBV}}
does anybody know whatever happened to him?
For sure
Is he not here any more?
i don't know
Well someone manages the Babble Expert. Either he or she.
no, he was back for a while, but I've never seen him again. And he is close to my time zone and the same as yours, sally
Haven't seen Zooz around in a long time. I hope he's okay.
so we would see him if he came on
Well I've not been around much. Things intervene, and maybe that's all with zooz.
Well now that I'm relieved, I can go have breakfast.
hagd All
I'm here every day, sally, which says something about my life ( :( ), but I think I would have seen him
{{hego}}
Lickety manages Expert and puts the clue list up. He was on this morning to tell people clues were up.
There are FOUR 9's?? Ugh.
He may just not have chatted. You can look in the archives to find out if he played.
that is interesting Molly; what do you think that means?
They are not hard 9s.
easy for you to say, sally haha
What Ruby, that Lickety was on?
Define "hard" ;) lol
I thought Expert was automatic. Perhaps the message is too.
yes, after last night
aaah, that makes sense
I don't think you can send an automatic message to the chat log. Ruby I just think it means that Lickety has access to a computer where he is.
which means he's OK
Two plurals and one present tense 9. Just trying to find the other one, have all of them.
I'll check lexulous and see if mrp made a move
Or at least he has acess to a computer with Internet.
I would assume if he is at his Father's house he is okay.
Make that three plurals for the 9s, and one present tense of the 10.
just checked lexulous and mrp hasn't moved since yesterday
Good Morning Babble Friends
{{dancer}}
(((Ruby))) how are you
and hello sally, molly, boat and all you lurkers
ok..back...
excellent, river, enjoying the tail end of warm weather
how are the children?
hello carlee
Hi River. Sorry, wasn't ignoring you, just deep in the T words.
I know...been warm here too but fr5 is expected this week....will finally be time to eat those brussell sprouts...waiting on fr5
my eyes are getting blurry. nice to see all of you -- big hugs all around
Kids are great...Sarah is loving college and Keith is my soccer star....got the hat trick on Saturday winning 3-1
Have a nice nap ruby.
and I just arrived.....sigh.....have a good night ruby
whats up with lickety and mrp?
reading back in the chat...I guess he is at his Dads
It's a long story Carlee. Mr. President was on here quite a bit yesterday saying Lickety had gone missing after a fight.
oh dear
just realized I have NBT - whoohoo
Good morning everyone. Sally, I love your profile pic :) I am also a cat lover and have often thought of having chickens. My neighbors have some and they follow me around.
He vanished, went out to the chickens and never came back. mrp was hysterical on here because he had been gone about 8 hours, and ended up calling the police and they were searching with helicopters and so on. Then he turned up at his father's.
<sigh>
I love my chickens :-)
I've been thinking about the things that mrp said yesterday... what if they were meant to force his hand or to take a jab at someone else?
yikes...I wasnt on in the afternoon yesterday so didnt realize she had called the police
She did in the end.
that family has gone through so much...they need an escape
Good morning everyone
I have no idea what the original problem was, and not my business, she just said he had done something bad, and we all thought he just needed time on his own to think things through.
((Mom)) hello
Hi Mom
Hi mom
Hi Mom
(((River))) good morning, and good morning Molly and Deb
good afternoon Sally
17 to go! Must just empty tumble dryer.
100 left here...
194 left here
I asked her what it was that caused such an escalation and she said that she very calmly asked him about something in particular, he denied it, she said that she knew he was lying, he admitted to it, she then asked why she was lying (all still in calmness), and that's kinda when he took off. I'm guessing he couldn't handle the being caught in a lie part.
oh dear... well..hopefully they sort it all out... they have been through and still are going through so much...
Sorry, I meant to spell check all that before posting it...She then asked why he was lying (all still in calmness), and that's when kinda when he took off.
good morning ((Carlee)) and Boatierra
Morning Mom :)
In all fairness, there are two sides to every story and we only got one side of it here. I hope those two work their differences out.
Good morning Babble Land!
good morning Molly and Car.
morning car
hi mom ... car.ee { group hug round the room }
((hug))
I agree MollyL. We only get to hear her side. And I always hope that she tries to tell her side as plainly as possible.
{{{{{HUGS}}}}}
And then poor Glantarell....she is in quite a mess too. : (
what is happening to Glantarell?
I agree, poor Glant. No one should have to live with what she's living with.
Hello hello
Hello Annie
Hello Annie!
Has anyone heard if Lickety has been found
hi annie dear
And, good morning
Back.
(((Annie))) good morning
He is at his Dad's I guess.
brb
hi carlee, ((Mom)), River, car....carlee, how is school?
Oh, why can't 'ogra' be a word, like a female or 4/6?
Whew! Q's done!
Licety was at his father's or Glant's husband?
ogra sounds good to me
congrats car..
Annie, Glant and her husband are estranged, yet he refuses to move out. And he is actively having sexual relationships with other women.
Lickety was found at his father's.
Several of us have been talking about him, Lickety. He was located at his dad's. But we have not heard from mrp since.
Molly, I hope not in the home he shares with Glant
lol, annie :)
Such awful dramas here :-(
why doesnt Glant move out....that is terrible
Yep Annie, so Glant posted.
hi boat :)
I don't think Glant can afford to move out.
Oooh! Trif will love this grid! TH 7 & 8
Hey annie :)
.....TH 7 & 8's and AC 5 & 6!!!!
Molly, I cannot believe it...what a horror! Cant she go to court and have him removed from the home?
Horrible situations for all of them.
she should not have to live that way....what a jerk
From what I read, he has moved another woman into the house.
Not sure of all the details Annie. It just sounds like a very intolerable situation.
OMG
de8?
oh dear. I thought I had it bad being unemployed.
In both situations though...our friends need to be VERY careful about what they type here. I worry about that for them in the long run.
I cannot begin to imagine what I would do in that situation, but I think it would probably make the front pages.
and the woman went knowing his wife is in the home...
And from what I understand of the law, if a couple is still married, one cannot have another removed from a home they both own.
de 8 - someone who finds things out, two spellings and two plurals.
has she not filed for divorce claiming adultery?
The law in Wales or the US Molly?
I agree Car. Very much so. This is a public forum.
TY Sally.
pigeonman...de8...one who finds things... extend the 6/24
Oh US Bich. I know nothing of Wales law.
Sorry...was too slow obviously!
Hi Champ
Maybe if you want to have this forum and make sure your spouse is the one who has to go then the best way to accomplish that is to post here.
any clues for the Y?
I did not know that Molly
thanks Sally and Champ
ye + double consonant
Hi Mom and everyone. Lurking again!
YE** my team won!
Hi Champ!
thanks bichon
: ( : ( My team didn't.
annie school..i LOVE IT!!!
thanks car
Thanks car...I never see that word!!!
hello champ
mmm, thinking about British law. Not something I have had to worry about, but I think you could go to a solicitor and get an injunction, especially if you both own the house.
carlee, I am so happy for you!
i am just waiting for my religious studies class to start
Carlee! I am glad you're back! I missed your Hello earlier! Hello Dahling!!!!!!
I think it works the same here Sally but it all costs money too
And if you are married, these days I think that it is assumed that you both own the house, not like once upon a time.
I'm not sure you can have someone kicked out of a house they are a co-owner of.
I dare you to stand up and shout "Can I get an AMEN" in the middle of class......
( I had to go to the loo ....being in public place..means packing up everything )
ty. how about the do7?
i am good hun...how are things with you?
No Molly, but she could have the "visitor" kicked out.
LOL car
but you can certainly get a guest kicked out
Very good!!!!! : ))))))))
snap
oh...yeesh..so NOT that kind of class hahaha
You could change the locks.
Yeah River, but I don't think he has moved the woman in. It sounds like he was just bringing her around to have sex with her, gross as that is.
Tee hee!
Wow, what a gem *eyes rolling*
this is more... looking at how the jews view moses...then the christians..then the muslims...and why they view the diff stories as they do...
*Popping in* - In Canada, at least, if you have lawyers involved at least, you can certainly have your spouse kicked out of the house, presuming that you are in the middle of a divorce. I work in a law firm and we frequently use items such as Facebook and posts in public forums to prove one thing or another. It's interesting, but very scary as well. **pops back to searching. Stinky grid**
makes my stomach turn....
Has the woman (not Giant) no shame? Perhaps Giant should just keep walking in and putting the light on.
Actually, i would find a class like that VERY interesting. Keep me posted on it!
adn the subtle differences between the telling of the stories based upon the religious scripture
((((Uni))))) hello
do7? please?
Canine followed by how a horse might move, and plural.
car.ee i can send u my notes..i typically summarize each of my lectures into a short essay...
Thanks for that input Uni. It supports what Car said that people need to take care what they post in public forums.
Hi Pigeonman, sorry I don't have it, but will help you look
TY again Sally!
ballroom dance with domesticated canine=do7
I just clued it.
Ooooh! carlee...if that would not be any trouble....
or we can just use Sally's clue :0)
:-)
Wow! Thanks Sally-catlover, I wouldn't have gotten that without your clue :)
funny word - thanks for the clues
thank you Sally

Bye Sweetie!!!!
bye carlee
Stupid OR word, mocking me with being a hidden :(
*All hidden
The 10 is re 10/84, the or is a whale.
not sure what it starts with but I remember reading that it is past tense of an 8
I have the whale one.
AH! Just got it :)
Mom....there is no N is this grid'
Not an/8 but an 8
and the H is in the wrong place
not AN 8...an 8 letter word.
River, past tense of an 8 letter word, not starting with an
Back in a mo.
oh lol
:-)
*All together now* : )
guess I dont have that 8 yet because if doesnt work with the 2 I do have....looking.
time for breakfast anyway....be back in a while....have fun everyone
yikes found the 10!! GOOD MORNING ALL
Have a great day, ((River))
Hi Peri! Well done!
Well done peri :)
Bye River! HAGD!
:)
morning Peri and congrats
nbs before nbt
Woot1
* Woot!
has never happened to me before
Holy s***! I just got the de's 6, 8, 9, 7 combo without any help! I's improvin' :)
yay boat
Yeah Boatierra! You Rock!
:)
wtg, boat!
nbs and nbt!
Oh, but I just noticed there are another 8 and 9, figures (wah, wahhhhhh).
any clues for do7 and 8?
canine + horse gait
ty
canine + the way a horse walks (plural)
Fireworks! Any clues needed?
still looking for that 10
WTG Sally :)
< still needs the 10
congrats, Sally!
congratulations Sally!
re 10/84 - to have reference to or influence on past occurrences.
OK, th 10. The first five letters mean sort of vintage, followed by a word meaning what you did on stage.
From the 10 you can get the 8, and also the 9 which is the present tense.
TY!!!!!
thank you :)
And of course the first five letters give you a word on its own.
(And its plural).
Ah, got the other two de's, 8 and 9, sweet!
One 9 to go.
Have you got the ca 9?
that is the 9 I am missing
That's the last one I need.
wait. I have de9, re9 missing two 9's
The ca 8 is what men sometimes need when they can't wee. Then plural it.
Whee! Got all the 8's and 9's now!!!!
There are two de 9s.
Oh, that's what all the pee was earlier!
OK...time to work. Have a great day everyone! Peace and blessings throughout your days.
Thanks sally :)
not getting that ca8
Must go myself. Have a good day.
Peri, men in hospital (and sometimes women) sometimes have to have one of these inserted into their (cough, cough)
ca 8/50 and 9/66 - a flexible or rigid hollow tube employed to drain fluids from body cavities
sheesh, ty, Sally. and I used to work in a hospital too
forgot about that H in the corner
women have catheters put in as well
Boatierra's definition is more accurate but more boring! :-)
Anyway, I'm off.
I just go straight to Dictionary.com. Copy and paste.
LOL, It is not inserted into your "cough cough"
I have the de8/9 those who find thing. help with the other pls
LOL, into your *cough cough* sounds AWFUL lol
LOL, I dont remember who said a ca8 was inserted into your "cough cough"...still laughing in a friendly way
For the other de 8,9 combo just change the last vowel.
duh, ty boat
yw
missing two of the 8s'
ca8, de8x2 and re8 is what I have
OMG, I have all the 8's and I didn't even realize it *blinking*
time to start my day, I hope everyone has a great day. ((Hugs)) to all of you
((Mom)) Enjoy your day.
I will trade you one th 8/45 for a re 8 word
thanks Annie, I will. I hope your is a grand one. ((hugs))
Mom, th8..where you go to see a play
that was for Peri.
re8 is a compound, first part is used in fashion industry re styles in the past. and the 2nd part is what people do on stage
Peri - de 7/40, 8/55 combo, th 7/32, 8/45, 7/32 combo.
thanks Peri and Annie
Ooops, I meant do 7/40, 8/55 combo.
is there a ca8/9?
there is and I have them
ty have all the 8's and 9's
Ya, ca 8/9, that's the one where a tube is used to help someone relieve fluids in the body.
Excellent :)
H's done.
Okay, there should be a law against discussing bodily fluids while some of us are still drinking coffee.
But it's a clue :)
lol crossy can watch autopsies and eat spagetti:) morning everyone
Good morning. Actually, I have a very strong stomach. Blood and guts don't bother me. Please pass the steak tartare.
Now that
Now that's blech!
double blech!
Stupid shift key being near the enter.
crossy cuts the horns off,wipes the butt,slides it on the plate and passes it over to judi
70 left, nice grid so far
*ralphs*
ewww, crossy
Yum yum. *Picks teeth with tip of horn*
I'll take my steak medium well, thank you very much.
have to love built in toothpicks
"*Picks teeth with tip of horn*" - That's funny :)
Actually, I don't eat beef or pork. I dig sushi, tho.
and i as well have cut back on red meat..more fish
Better yet if you have some venison, I'll take that!
Now sushi really turns me off. I don't know what it is, but I wouldn't eat it
we will have some moose meat soon boat;)
I really can't eat anything with hooves. Not for ethical reasons, just cause I don't digets it very well.
*digest* rather.
I've never had moose, but I hear it's good. Buffalo and elk, yes.
tbh,i am finding the same as time goes on
it is very lean boat
Ostrich is delicious. Expensive as hell, but delicious.
Judi - ever had ostrich? I hear its very good.
rattle snake is nice
Snap, boatie!
they cut it in chunks,batter it and deep fry it
Emu is similar in flavour to ostrich.
There's an ostrich farm about an hour south of where I live that provides most of the meat that serves the valley. It's very popular :)
I think snake is supposed to taste good. I watch all these wilderness survival shows with my husband. They will anything to survive, even larvae
Hubby would be schkeeved, but I would try rattlesnake. Hell, just about anything tastes good fried.
Time to do some real work. BBL. *POOF*
One would think with all the rattlers here that you could find it on more plates around town, but its just not so.
boat where is tierra del calor?
The only rattlesnake I could find here was canned, so I decided no.
It's my made up name for the valley I live in, in AZ.
It means hot land?
Land of heat, so pretty much :)
we live in tierra del humidity
Ha! On the east coast no doubt :)
funny, bichon...here too
It has been extraordinarily humid here all month
La tierra de la humedad.
When I sit down to Babble, I can't get up, too sticky
And a great deal of fog here
La tierra de la niebla/Land of fog
today is a beautiful fall day here 18c and sunny with a breeze
sounds lovely, crossy
yes, but wait til January crossy and you won't be so lucky [not that it's so great in CT]
That does sound nice :)
well even january is not so bad anymore,it hardly ever gets below minus 25 anymore
at least you're used to cold weather. Last winter was quite a shock to us here
mid minus 30,s were coom in my youth and i have tasted minus 40-minus 44 3 or 4 times in this latatude
but no more
common
things were always different when we were young, right. We had more hurricanes it seems
what are the stats for the 10 please
i can still here my mum" paul! breath in though your nose and out through your mouth or you will frost yer lungs! and wear that balaclava!"
Balaclava - that's a great word :)
it is
One thing I remember about winter when we were young. If it was cold out, turn up the heat inside. Now, with energy being so dear, we can't do that
You don't hear that often in the states.
We just say ski mask.
of that i am sure
we used to have a wood stove in the litchen,toss a log on and turn the damper open a bit and you had to open the windows lol
If I had kids I say, "Put on your balaclavas so you don't get the collywobbles!"
problem with a wood stove is after doing stuff all day out in that cold,10 min in front of a wood stove and it is lights out
nodding off in yer chicken and dumplings
think I'll go for a walk in the humity and curl my hair
My aunt & uncle's place up north have a wood stove, its so soothing.
lol
bichon - lol
nothing finer than a wood fire
C's done.
E's done.
Oops, or no.
F's done.
E's done.
ta
G's done.
O's done.
good morning everyone, will be in and out - have to go over to Victoria this morning

st
what am I doing! just checked the local weather - looks good right now but some more rain anticipated
one of our Monday night bridge group was stranded in Vancouver yesterday - ferries weren't running out of Tsawassen due to the rough waters
Oh, I hope your friend is OK.
hopefully the ferries were able to get going again, haven't heard, I'll call her a little later, this is something that does happen when you live on an island

hi folks - have a few minutes to say hi
hi jbv
would you like to hear some good news for a change?
that would be cheery jbv
hi jbv, good news always welcomed
yes, please, we could all use good news!!!!
just received an email from my cousin - his mother who is 96 years old has been living in her own apartment (with a home health aide) but recently had to be hospitalized after a fall and they were planning the next step - maybe a nursing home, etc......
his email today is titled "The Comeback Kid" and she is doing great - gained weight, complaining about having to wait too long for her hair appointment, and is going back home today!
that is wonderful, jbv!

wow jbv, that sure starts the day on a positive note
yes indeed, jbv!!!!
last night, our first question was: does husband have nearby relatives and she said no
all very strange and upsetting
and thanks crossy for that update too
and i advised her to call dad and m-i-l becore calling out the national guard
indeed it was upsetting!
gotta run now
she was talking bout going out to look for him at 3AM
I hope she's OK; it sounds like Lickety is fine
must remember ,us guys do strange things when under pressure:)
we were all yelling STAY HOME; CALM DOWN
well,he will be fine right up till he walks in the door
that's like the joke about why men prefer dogs: they like if you leave stuff on the floor; they find it interesting if you've petted another dog; they don't mind if you repeat things in a loud voice. Just try putting your wife and your dog in the trunk of your car for 20 minutes and see who is happy to see you when you open it....
..if she has not changed the locks...
of course, she was beside herself with worry, but to go out looking at 3:am not a good idea
bad Ruby!
and leaving the children alone....
so true!
lol ruby
that is why we love you ladies..never know what is going to happen next:)
I am making a joke, but we were all terribly worried because she was hysterical
no, crossy, I am totally predictable :(
we did what we could,calmness is criticaql at times like this
if i was missing for 2 days,i think my wife would put a dish of food out the second night in case i got lost lol
me, too
ah, with some bacon so the smell would help you find your way back!

Hi. I am on my phone so will make this quick. Crossie I saw bacon flavoured potato chrisps and thought of you

*police
Oh...

tyvm boat
Surely :)
down to 40 -- may have to list soon
boat's clue reminded me of a joke passed on to me yesterday that would be funny if it was not 'sad but true'... A teacher walked into the classroom at the beginning of the term with a very stern expression on his face. The students immediately scrambled into their desks and settled down. "I want to get one thing straight", said the teacher. "In this class there are two words that will not be tolerated. If they are used in essays or exams it will result in an automatic failure for that quarter. One is gross and the other is cool. Are there any questions?
A student at the back of the class raised his hand..."What are they?"
HA!
Clue for cr5
Hi Nan
cr 5/12 - any creed or formula of belief.
cr 5/14: a guide for conduct
Ty

A's done.
Er, no, crap.
bottom left corner done; 135 words to go.
mmm -- yummy choclate in the grid!
re6,18 the first one -any clues?
re 6/18 - to reply to, usually in a sharp or retaliatory way; reply in kind to.
days when I'm tiredd I always want to switch 2 letters around. I NEED a T where the darn D is; I have so many words th** would work well then.

majmom - Did you get it?
Now the A's are done.
I just have the R's and T's mocking me.
Clue for de7
de 7/36 - to find (plural)
Or rather to discover.
R's, "We're hidden!" T's, "Oo, you can't find us!"
boat, maybe it's time to eat lunch? I can always find words after a breaak
Probably :)
any time the letters start teasing me; it'a break time
Not finding the de7 ,boat
I think its OK to anthropomorphize the letters. Letters are our friends ;)
de 7: plural of the de 6 - what investigators do
Let's see, the de 7/36 is a profession that someone would engage to do...like higher ranked police officers.

Ok ty
what a great time to return to the grid! Thanks for all thegreat clies
R's DONE.
CLUES!
How did I miss those de's- they're staring right at me!
I like the clies too.
They were probably winkin' at ya.
I had a neck MRI today. It was the most relaxing time I have spent in weeks- what does that tell you?
deets
sorry. off to PB nowq
I've had one of those. It's amazing how you can completely zone out.
what's going on Kap?
It reminded me of two things about growing up in NY- one the noise of the planes from LaGuardia constantly drowning out my parent's classical music and also jackhammers in midtown
So I listened to Bach and pretended I was a child in Flushing.
Just some neck and shoulder pain and a bumpy type thingy on my neck
Excellent choice. That's what I've been listening to for the past hour.
Why the MRI?
Ah, hopefully should provide all the answers.
LOL! When I had one in December, I tried listening to "Holiday music" (which I normally love) burt the music was so gratinf th** I mad them change it
Hopefully *the MRI* should...I should learn to finish typing my sentences.
it's been an ongoing problem--headaches, maybe I need PT, could be a tear or arthritis or misalignment or lymph node cancer or a brain tumor- no biggie.
Doctors like to rule everything out. Me, I know it's something that needs a chiroprator.
Gah! No biggie.
sorry for the typos; I'm tired. Typos may explain why I'm not doing too well in the grid
I am my parents daughter, but I staved off the kvetching for a few years longer.
They had various arthritises quite a bit younger. They of course didn't excer-exersc---go to the gym like I do.
not sure what kvetching is, but I like your humor
I am also tired and can't type
Kvetching is complaining.
AAH! Th**'s what I thought was humor!
Yiddish word.
Ask Molly. She knows.
When I was experiencing neck/shoulder/chest pain combo, I kept going to my chiro hoping that would solve it. But no good (for this particular problem). I finally decided to get X-rays, then a head/neck MRI. Turns out I have a herniated cervical disc. Problem validated. Just have to be carful with things now.
I could add that to my list of possibilities.
KVETCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
See, being here helps :)
LOL :)
We're not getting older- we're getting bitter.
Was that a typo? Only my hairdresser knows for sure!
Tumor, herniated disc, six of one, half a dozen of the other...
It does help to have someone who can sympathize (or empathize even)
You kvetch when you are verklempt
LOL!!!
Torn rotator cuff? Bone spur? Polio?
Lyme disease, Lemon disease, grapefruit disease?
How about head not screwed on straight? : )
Rhyme disease, time disease, chime disease, thyme disease? The possibilities are endless.
I've had partially herniated discs in my neck since my 20 yr old dtr was 2 and she jumped on my back when I was picking stuff up off the floor. Making the muscles stronger saved me from surgeries
Molly, go fly a kite!
How's that for a snappy rejoinder?
halfway, NBS and NBT
Oh Nef, I feel your pain!
what is verklempt?
I say go see a good acupuncturist.
Verklempt is distraught
Verklempt is like being choked up emotionally.
I've had 3 discs in my neck fused (one at a time, they kept going bad). I know some people have problems with the surgery but for me it was a lifesaver (would have been paralyzed without it).
acupuncture is wonderffful; I've found lots of pain relief with it
I would not go to a chiropractor, especially for neck problems - there is a risk of stroke with neck manipulations
Hey acupuncture has been around for thousands of years. Think there might be something to it?
chiros scare me too! (LONG story, won't elaborate re: confidentiality issue)
Mike Myers used to do a fabulous skit on SNL imitating is ex-MIL being verklempt. The skit was called Coffee Talk.
re acupuncture - nope. It's been tested, doesn't work. Of course, they do have you lie down in a quiet room for a while (at least mine did) with soft music playing - this can provide relief in itself
You are entitled to your opinion Sue. I know several people who have had great results with acupuncture.
Who said acupuncture doesn't work? Is it placebo?
Pretty much, kap - there have been double-blind studies done using fake vs. real needles, there is no difference
Chiropractic causes stroke- acupuncture doesn't work...what to do?
What, how, a fake needle?
and molly, it's not my opinion, it's the result of careful double-blind studies.
How is that possible? *boatierra confused* Will have to look that up sometime.
i come to bury boggle, not to praise it (hi all)
the acupuncture needles have an outer sheath so you can't really see the needle going in; they make fake needles that look exactly the same from the outside but the needle inside doesn't actually puncture the skin.
I come to bury seizures, not to praise them.
Quite clever, actually.
If people go to acupuncture and they find it helps them, do they actually not feel as better as they think they feel?
But the subject has to *feel* like the needle is going in, so I wonder how the accomplish that with a fake needle. Amazing.
If you tell someone who thinks the needlles are working that they are not working, will the pain come back?
All I know is that it worked for me. I'd pulled some back muscles and couldn't do the meds; also used it for hip, hand, and back arthritis with good effect. If it's placebo effect; I'm glad it worked
Science and scientific data does not explain everything. Science says there is nothing to Lourdes either. Tell that to the people who have been cured there.
Is there a control group and out-of-control group?
i thought acupuncture worked because of endorphins (is that the right word?) or naturally-occurring painkillers in the brain
Placebo is amazing. And I've heard very good things about acupuncture.
The endorphin factor is probably significant. It's why kids with lots of tattoos do it for the endorphin rush
Oh I never thought about that with tattoos. Wow.
maybe one and the same then.
I wonder if the drug companies have been giving us placebos for everything for decades and we are all part of a big scam.
I just want tattoos for the pretty pretty pictures on my body.
Tattoos and piercings- multiples.
i get endorphins from sings and playing the piano, and also from boggling, of course!
> singing
I once was well, but now I'm ill, could see but now I'm blind.
There is a great little book called "How To Lie With Statistics". Everyone should read it.
I'm kinda big on the theory of evolution. And then there's Bill Nye, the science guy...
Oh good G-d no, not piercings. When I got my tragus pierced it hurt like a mother f*****! No endorphins there. I thought I was going to pass out.
I'm not very into New Agey stuff. Once a colleague of mine showed me a wholistic health magazine that was trying to promote drinking a glassful of one's own urine daily for the health benefits.
He told me that my revulsion was cultural bias.
I feel that certain parts of the body shouldn't be pierced
Excuse me, but didn't we just excrete that stuff for a reason?
LOL, Kap!
I've seen that urine shite. Urine is a waste product. I don't see how ingesting it (again) could possibly be beneficial. Blech.
body modification goes back to beginning of humanity, probably. but I'm not gon' do it! 8-)
I swear this is true!! On my Enable dictionary!
"cultural bias* - that's hilarious!!!
I promise I will not pierce my tongue or drink a glassful of urine.
CPR works because when you exhale there's still oxygen in your breath. I'm not advocating drinnking urine, but the same principal applies
I'd like to see someone here advocate drinking urine- come on, lurkers. I know you're out there.
hmmmm
For over twenty years I've asked people who have gotten their tongue pierced if it hurt and only one person said that it did. I'm not kidding. I think that they are all LYING. How could it not hurt???
nope, not me. No piercings, tattoos or drinking urine
LOL, Kaplan your killin' me!!!
I have a lot of young opiate addicts as clients so I know about this stuff. I'm a cool mom.
you say one thing and they hear another, that's how LOL
you ask does it hurt, and they hear, "should i got my tongue pierced too?" and they say NO
Infections on pierced tounges- it has happened.
The only, ONLY time I would advocate drinking urine is if you are lost in the desert and are dying of thirst and have no other available liquids.
EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.
Hm. I would cry and drink the tears.
Ew to which, infected tongues or urine drinking?
This is going to get very Donner Party soon.
both are too salty! lol
Ewwww to every pleasant subject I have raised for the last half hour.
Or Fear Factor.
I would drink some else's tear first before urine.
No headgear in this grid.
let's talk about doctor who
Ask yourselves- how far would YOU go?
No! No spoilers. I can't watch it 'cause I have no cable. Sorry.
I have been having wicked insomnia so I'm not too well wrapped today.
We could talk about happiness. Seriously, puppies? How great are they?
we could talk about old doctor who then 8-)
I do need clues for most of the TE's.
I get this weird persona when I am on chats like this. Puppies- oh God, that reminds me of my dream last night, and it was also gross...
Oh, there's a GRID here?
doctor who and puppies, good, good
Flowers and babies.
Oh! Finished the TA's.
I am really a very meek and witless person.
Rainbows and muffins :)
there's kind of a phenomenon on the chog to get into random weird associations and non sequitors and fall into the PB by mistake.
We almost did it with the tattoos- but didn't.
brown paper packages tied up with strings
That's what I love about it :)
The curtains, Maria!
Use the curtains!
Cream colored ponies...
Over on the windows!
Look! Look!
Yes, those are the ones!
high on a hill was a lonely time lord . . .
Oh no---the captain!!!!
Were my children up in trees?
Lazy oh so lazy oh so lazy- who?
Are their clothing made of drapery?
Did the Austrians hate the Nazis?
The Baroness - she was a keeper!
Is the captain really a kind man at heart?
does the pope shit in the woods? (runs and hides)
Boo! Hiss! The Baroness!
When did the chickens rride the crosses?
"Ah, darling, that's what boarding school is for."
I am sooooooooooo tired!
When or why?
I have 9, NINE words left.
I think the scene in the Cathedral when all the nuns get up and sing How do you solve a problem like Maria with the organ music is the BEST
GO, go boatierra
How do you catch a cloud and pin it down?
I have 50. I'm not working too hard.
At the wedding. It's so funny.
I don't know about the Austrians, but Georg Von Trapp surely did. (Hate the Nazis)
Flibbertygibbet.
Will o' the wisp.
A clown.
At the wedding when all the nuns are basically standing behind a cage.
I like the scene where the nuns steal the Nazis distributor caps.
"I found them!"
That's a good one :)
Boat, go and finish your grid.
Best line of the movie is the Baroness to Maria: I don't think you would have made a very good nun. : )
Rolfe - poor, stupid, gullible Rolfe.
I'm trying but I can't find the TE words.
Agreed MolllyL
And I don't think you would have made a very good baroness, so nyea nyea to
Again agreed.
you.
Word, right in front of me.
a captain with seven children- what's so fearsome about that?
Not when they respond to whistling.
oooh i found the 10! yippee
Woot book!
Oh, I must stop these doubts, All these worries. If I don't I just know I'll turn back!
hard to pick between theodore bikel and christopher plummer, both yummy 8-D
I need a te 5/14.
Any help on the tenner?
christopher plummer is kicking butt in toronto atm
NM, got it. Fireworks!!!
thyey say he opens his throat and all these charater spring forth without effort
re10...word used to describe clothing or decor of the past + past tense of what you do on stage
wish i could see him
plummer da man
i once took a series of tests to determine what i should be when i grew up and the only advice i remember was that i would not a make a good teaching nun
since i was a methodist i was a little baffled
i would not make a nun either. don' wanna get married to anyone let alone a deity
Wow , thks
sorry i missed the acupuncture conversation. there is no actual way to do fake acupuncture since any touch at the appropriate point is legit.
a local youngish 27 year old reporter had a interview with plummer and she said he just ozzed charm and wit a poise and that she was reduced to just nodding her head in all the right places as he made young and old alike ignore their meals and listen to him speak
ack, i meant to say, i would not make a *good* nun either OY
i bet
There is a great line that was omitted from The Divine Secrets Of The Ya Ya Sisterhood. When Genvieve goes to rescue teenage Vivie from a nunnery (where Vivie is being allowed to starve herself) Genvieve says to the Mother Superior, "When the Dear Lord find out he's married to you, he gonna ask for a dee-vorccccce."
no need ton convince me o' that, crossy!
i'm married to my books LOL
not only am a married to my books i am also divorced with many other tomes and pay alimony and arrange visits
bbl
i am trying a new author for me this week so we are just dating:)

Attention Americans- if you get your prescriptions filled at CVS- they SUCK!

Used CVS in NY w/no problems. Waiting for the new one here to open!
here we pay $4.99-$9.99 to get scrops filled
hi all
After telling me several times I had no refills on my sleep meds, making me call my doctor asking for more several times, they "discovered" that I had 80 remaining pills that they overlooked by mistake
scrips*
howdy hoots
I've been worried how I used them all up and whether my doc would think I'm abusing my ambien...
hi again. Please send some restful thoughts to AUnty please. Her congestive heart failure (CHF) is worsening and she's been in and out of pulmonary edema over the past 24 hours and I'm now giving her morphine to help her breathe
at leat it was not a case of them not finding more and your doctor being on a month long sabbatical in south america
I haven't been obsessing my brains out when I go to sleep ...
(((auntie)))
It was real close to that crossy, they told me I had no more in the spring and then again in August...
I have been obsessing, I mean. It's awful. That's why I use ambien.
if i run out of sleep meds i switch to high tension booze:)
And I had to find my doc on labor day weekend and ask for refills...
tbh,i sleep 3 hours a night with a 1.5 hr cat nap in the day..a full 7 or 8 hours is unknown to me last 5 years or so
hi everyone can i have clue for the 10 please#
Kap, sorry you're going thru that
I work with chemically dependent people so I know all the stuff that goes on- and was worried that I was becoming one
I wanna sleep and I know I will be fine tonight thank goodness.
But I made my husband call his doctor to get 4 ambiens last weekend so I could get thru the weekend visiting my daughter.
re 10/84
do you need clues or just the stats?
kap had a remainder of 80 pills so the balance of the scrip was delivered re******** but use pt
clue please
But why am I posting this on the internet where anyone can hack it?
Great word!
re 10 re -something from the past that's cool again + pt of what you do on stage
Thank you- look what I had to do to get it!

hoot, I'd think of moving soon
That's part of the problem Nef. It's a rental and the management co does nothing to maintain the grounds and barely for the house. We've move 4x in the last 5 years. We were hoping we could stay here but ....
(((Nef))) I lit a candle for your husband's Aunt. And you too.
oh well enough whining. Have to go shopping before they may or may not show up! later
thanks, Molly.
hoot, I'm sending thoughts of pereverence your way!

nice to see you as well:))
hi Mom. where you been latey?
lately
Hi Nef, nice to see you. I have been on for short periods of time in the early but life keeps getting in my way.
how have you been and how is your husband and Aunt?
early morning*
Dh is doing "okay", Aunty is having a very bad time right now. Hospice gave us oral morphine for days loke this and we are using it.
oh ((Nef)), I am so sorry to hear that. Are you home all the time now? I think if was you that was mentioned as having retired
(her lungs are filling with fluid (pulmonary edema) from the heart failure with the slightest work today
yep. I'm retired and "working" at home full time now
((hugs to Nef and to Aunty))
congratulations on your retirement. It seems to never end, the work I mean
thanks
as a Mom, you know that too! :-)
all to well. :-) Youngest came up for lunch today.
so I tossed out the housework I was going to do today
good
I imagine you are keeping yourself very busy also
Clue for oa5/12?
yeah; mostly getting the house under control
Hi Kenny, sorry I don't have it, but I will help look
past tense row a boat for oa 5/12
oh Nef, that is always a task
thanks Wolvie and hello
hi - (lurking) lol
thanks Wolvie. Been looking for that last bootom O word
Tx Wolvie. I wasn't at the lower oa.
:-)
Sorry, I wasn't looking at the lower oa.
that is the only oa 5/12 i have, i am still missing one o word from the top o tho
now i am not, lol - saw it just as soon as i typed that.
Oh, Nef, I'm so sorry about your aunt. I've been sending for you and her. I've asked for strength for you as well.....you must be very tired..
today I'm very tired. Thnaks for your support, GA
best to you Nef, I understand that particular battle - just went thru a year or so of it with my Mom.
hello gapeach
Hey there, Mom. Hope all is going well with you.
I think I am going to go rest for a bit. ((Hugs))to all of you
i am off for a bit too - good luck all!
thanks, Wolvie. It's tough to do; but it's also an honor th** few of us get to do these days, Someone else is allowed to care for our loved ones these days
That is a very tender way of thinking about it New. You are a gem.
brb
Molly, I do think it's a privilege (which I can't spell today) Through my years in nursing I've learned this
It's being a part of the circle Nef. Caring for those who once cared for us.
Great way to put it, Molly
While it was difficult to be with both of my parents when they passed, I felt like they saw me in and I saw them out. Not an easy thing, but I'm glad I was there.
it isn't easy to do, Molly. But it's a time when you can tell your loved one how much you care and that it's okay for them to go
(((((free hugs)))))
hi stid How are you?
I am now a PROFESSIONAL (paid) teacher... or will be when paychecks come out next month! LOL
I survived teaching.... P.E. My "weakest subject" in fact! SO glad it was only a half day, but had the BEST time ever! :-D
YAY, stid! WTG!!! (((stid the teacher!!)))
so the first thing I did was, unlock the gym door. and set off the intruder alarm... LOL
LOL!! Great start! :-D
met the very nice and patient custodian who also showed me how to turn on the lights... *sigh* I am a "noob" as my younger son puts it.
I am pleased to see you (and Mom and Molly and Peach and Wolvie? and...) here today. It is sunny at the moment. I am eating cereal with my feet up and a heating pad on my hip (which didn't bother me until I got home and sat down). I am so psyched. Now I can't wait for the next assignment!
well, your son can just eat dirt for calling his mother an nnob
no no, it fits perfectly today! :-D in fact, that is how I managed to get to sleep. I reminded myself that I am still very much a beginner and it would be okay if I didn't know everything about the new school. LOL (but it would be amusing to see him eat dirt...)
wow. NBT already.
stidmama! how did the first day go?
I'm surprised no one showed you where the lights and doors were though
I hope you are getting some "downtime" Nef -- other than babble...
I was just filling the chog with it cross! LOL
oh, it's okay, I just called the office and it was easy. I liked that school. Very laid back.
reading back...
just lurking as it's very late
I'm really glad it went well for your first time, stid

big hug for Nef and congrats to stidmama!!!!
thanks ruby
good night everybody, love and hugs!!!!
(((RUBY)))
it's Mother. She will swing by on the way to pick up her weekly "farm box" and visit for a bit.
((((RUBY)))) sweet dreams and thanks for the hugs!

I still don't understand how Expert causes only two letters typed in the word box to show up in chat.
it's got a hair trigger, I think. I get the box when I don't want it sometimes, but have been able to stop before it posts.
Makes sense Champ. *Mental note: Xanex for Expert*
I try not to use it till I'm completely stuck anyway.
Evening all. Clue for the last ar5/12, please?
Got it. Thanks anyway.
still here, still exhausted, pissed off at CVS pharmacy and just waiting around till bedtime.
Has the word CATHEXIS ever turned up in a grid?
What about polymorph? Why does yetta turn up frequently, but I have never seen turnip?
There was a word for crabgrass that I used in the chog by mistake once- it was in the grid- and I no longer know what that word was.
I avoid CVS at all costs. Their pharmacists are dimwits.
They shorted me 80 pills on a rx and made me beg my doc for refills
They suck
so i'm commuting home on the NYC subway
that sounds pretty darn sucky!
and we have a visitation by a *musician*
That was to Kap....
I only shop at CVS for seasonal stuff and sometimes cosmetics, if they are on sale. I like the fact that it still smells like a drug store. But their pharmacy does suck.
he has a "discussion" with another patron over on the other side of the car about how to be friendly
he gives us a longer than usual song and then precedes to talk to EVERYONE on the subway car to get a response
The New York subway looks scary to me Shirl.
can i have a clue for the first de6 please
i'm trying to READ and he gives me a lecture about how being literate is great but I should appreciate it when God gives me the opportunity to enjoy and be friendly and i shouldn 't have attitude
i had to leave the car i was so pissed
The first de6 is the beginning of the word that describes what Dick Tracy is. Cos, did you watch Terra Nova?
yes terra nova was amazing
thanks for the de6
I was afraid it was going to be a LOST poser, but I liked it a lot.
if you watched it -- there was a clue in the final scene if you didnt catch it
I'm watching it again now, I'll look for the clue.
finally time to go home...unfortunately it is raining again :-P
if you still dont find it let me know :) that scene is linked to a scene earlier.
did I mention that I am walking home?
yikes.. be safe sue
oh well - at least it isn't snow!!
Okay Cos. I usually pick up what I missed on the second go round.
i call it "land of the lost" meets "lost"
Good description. I think it will help alleviate my LOST withdrawal. : )
so far this season i've gotten into three new shows.. terra nova, the secret circle and two broke girls.. im looking forward to Grimm and Once Upon a Time --- both in October
once upon a time is from the writers and creators of Lost.
I liked "Person Of Interest".

Thanks much, Molly.
How are you doing today Peach?
Allergies, Molly, allergies
Hope you don't have them.
No, I don't, thank goodness. I hope you have something that can help with that.
Never had them until 1977 when I moved to GA.
hi again, all! Wasn't raining too hard after all for my walk home.
I used to say it was my husband, but he's an ex, so I can't blame it all on him. LOL
and time for TV and grading, probably will stop here at 87/119 - see you all tomorrow!
Nite, sue.
good night sue
hey all, bye sue -- just sticking my nose in briefly to say I survived my first sub job!
back for a few more..i hope...
yaa for stidmama!!
May I please have a clue for te5-12 the 3rd? Thanks
te 5 -the third of the seven canonical hours, or the service for it, originally fixed for the third hour of the day (or 9 a.m.). te + may the fo*** be with you
Thanks much, wvteach.
Hi crossy, Sue, et al. Got an apartment today!
what us a "canonical: hour???
howdy neil
i
i? Yeah, guess I'm only one "i" [eye] right now.
not really neil,just that as of this moment i cannot type
ahhh... just home from a yummy sushi dinner-date with the hubs. was supposed to go with a friend, but she stood me up, so hubby came with me instead. :)
good hubby..
yeah. BAD friend. ::grumbles::
hubby doesnt eat sushi, but he had a beer while he sat with me. :)
*** finito ***
even better hubby,he deserves a cookie
I've had that problem since last night, crossy. That's due to being overtired though.
yaa for tech!!
Nice of your husband Eva. As for the friend, needs a kick in the tush.
mine is due to oversize finger neil'
i baked Oatmeal banana Muffins. i think that suffices. ;)
as for friend, she is notoriously late. we were supposed to meet at "6-ish." at like 5:55, i texted to see if we were still running on time -- she said she was still at work on a conference call!!
Haha, crossy. I drove down to LA yesterday morning, so I got up too early to do that... then didn't even get a nap all day because I was busy apartment hunting. Can't believe the hunt's over already, wow. Now I have to go home and pack and arrange everything... ugh. What fun!
why would you make dinner plans if you knew you had a conference call?? and then i still waited for a while for her call to end. finally, an HOUR later, i told her to bugger off, since i needed to eat.
lol,eva you would love it,but my mrs hates it as i am half an hour early for everything
That is a little strange. And very poor planning... unless she somehow forgot about the call when she made the dinner plans? Weird.
Very inconsiderate Eva. Sounds like someone very self involved.
[sorry for butting in]
if i am latre 5 minutes for a movie,i will not watch it
And don't blame you. I'd have done the same.
to 6,18 any clues?
A Spanish bullfighter, majmom.
@Maj Bullfighting
hubby + i actually joke about her running on "cheehy-time" (thats her last name). i honestly didnt expect her to be ready at 6, but seriously, when youre making plans, be realistic! id gladly settle for a half hour early over late/no-show anyday, crossy!
to + hooked consonant + vowel + hooked consonant + vowel.
ty got it
yw
eva,if my mrs is ready within 30 minutes of the estimate4d departure time,i am content
Hint for TH5,12?.. I don't see it, and I've tried everything, I do believe.. but there must be one word amongst them!
on that note, kids, its time for THISGAL to hit the hay.
actually she drive me nuts..she badgers me that we have to go somewhere,then takes 2 hours to be ready to go there
i say,"JUST CALL ME WHEN YOU ARE 5 MINUTES AWAY FROM BEING READY"
th 5/12 8th letter of the greek alphabet
Got it, Thank you Diane.
:-)
tr5,14 anybody?
re5/27 pls
Majmom, a prominence on the inner side of the external ear, OR a event like a family member dying, subtract the last letter.

The beginning of a word that means attracted to the same sex.
I have one now.... a prefix often used in front of sexual.....
Blue, your profile icon looks like a green square.
opposite sex attraction I think Molly
ty Molly i got it regardless of who`s attracted to whom
Oy, totally dis "oriented". : )
:-)
Thank you kindly, Neil! I apologize, I was away from my computer.
It's weird Molly. I guess I don't know how to download a pix.

A motherless calf, Gapeach.
Oh, thanks, my mistake....need do7-40 Thanks

Yes, yes. :)
Blue, I thought the picture of you was very nice. You look happy in it.
Thanks y'all....dogs are wanting to go out. bbl
Hello...
hi Jellen :-))
Hello~
hi again. 70 left; wonder if I'll finish?
Go Nef! I'm trying to decide if I want to start...
for the most part, it's been real words in this grid (for me so far, anyway). If you can just sit down without interruptions, you should finish, Jellen
Aye, there's the rub...I have many other things I should be doing...
just do one jellen.. the rest will follow
<--- babble pusher
Haha, ruru
he's right, Jellen
re 6/27 please?
nm
st7/32? either one?
sorry, ruru. I'm too slow tonight
It was a good grid, Jellen. Pretty easy. Not too many "strange" words... and you have cluers.
To color something again.
hi neil
Oh sorry, read that wrong!
re6,27 -- what you get when you're tired. An early flight?
[I'm definitely too overtired... can't read]
got it.. thanks.. found it just after I asked
st 7= illegal drug for body builders
Sorry for the bad clue... didn't even see it right before trying to clue it. Duh.
Thank you, Nef. Got that in no time.
Thanks, nef.
yw. I don't have the other one thought yet
finally got all the dumb r's
I got it.
PT of the st4/4 before it.
Ok ruru, see this photo? [profile]
thanks Bzzn
It was taken on April 01, 2007. [just changed it]
yes
Ok... changing it again.
Now refresh, haha. won't leave it there.
LOL
got it
Yeah, knew you'd like that lol.
Bzzn, it's actually the st4,4 after it. :)
you can be arrested for sh** like that in DC
Aren't the feds after you for that, Neil?
It's probably treason. :P
I was working on the Hill at the time, lol. Nervy?
risky
But mind you, I was just leaving. Temporary position. Uh yeah, but I had reason.
If I were in washington when Bush was there I'd have done worse than that
heigh ho
wonder what the charge would be for mooning the White House
hey doren
disorderly behavoir?
lol Don't know. Never tried that! I'm not into mooning.
ru, how goes it?
ok.. bad couple of days.. but okay.. I opened a really great bottle of wine to drown my sorrows yesterday
i hope it helped...bordeaux or burgundy?
did you see the doc on monday? or is that next monday
Rhone
wish i could have just one glass
you aren't going to believe it doren
hey after today i'd elieve anything
...after confirming with me no less than 5 freaking times.. the Doctor's office calls on Friday at 4:10 to cancel all appointments on Monday.. no explanations, no we're sorry..
oh damn!
rescheduled for when?
I'm going to another Doctor.. F*** this one
no benefit of the doubt? like family emergency maybe? i mean, even doctors have deaths in the famly, etc
no.. I'm moving on.. lack of empathy and all that
kay... have you gotten a recommendation for a good one? do you go locally or into sf?
I"m going to find another specialist..that my Doctor recommends... his wife went to this Guy at UCSF
I hope you find the best one to help you ru.
thanks.. me too
Z
X
sounds good. for what it's worth, one of my best old school buddies is in Napa.. family med but he knows many folks if you are interested in names. and he's brilliant. (and pretty good on wines, too)
z???
Yeah no doubt. You must be so sick of and worn down from all that pain.
I am worn out.. today is a bad day..
do any of the pain meds helP?
Hints for he6,21 and he7,32 anyone?
sorry to hear that. :(
(((ruru))) I'm sorry they messed you up.
not gay kitty
what warms you up kitty?
he6,21 is something that generates he4,5.
not enough doren.. I'm thinking of doing the Janis Joplin routine
Oh THAT he6,21 sorry!
sounds dangerous ru ( altho i did love her)
ruru, have you tried acupuncture or ??
Yeah h36,21 -- short form of "not gay".
he7,32 -- plural of that
Thank you, ruru and neil! :) Done, fireworks~
oh man, ruru.
You are most welcome Kitty and congrats!
YAY, kitty!!! WTG!!!

I thought maybe West was belting liquor on her birthday. Congratulations to your son, West.
belting out tunes?
*Son in law
the bad news is the hotels are running right around $450 a night
(ru - that was supposed to be glad to know your pain isn't sufficient to stop your excellent sense of humor)
ouch...
$450 a night .youwzay
can't he find anything cheaper within an hour's radius?
(that is what happens around harvard/mit graduation too)
Does it include brunch with a Kennedy?
we looked
it should
what about Nedham or Bedham
we're going to stand on the sidelines and cheer
of course you are!
it'll be a bi*** getting into town so we're just going to stay
F
Hi westford.
hi neil did you find an apartment?

See bio, west.
I sure did!
that's great !! and the cartoon one?
molly after practically dropping dead seeing the hotel prices I put a little Irish in my coffee
you moving to LA neil?
Yes, you got the funny fwd from A with the anime cartoons of him, west? That cracked us all up. Whoever did that is pretty good... I can't draw to save my life.
yes ru. Just found an apartment here today and it's mine, all mine! It's great too.
I was just going to say the artist is very talented
Just as I suspected West, you are a wise woman. : )
Sure is. Don't know how people can do that?
Hi again. Congrats, Neil!
looking for re10, 84.
hi jellen and polyn
You have family in San Diego west? That's where I'm from... born and raised there.
daughter and her husband live in Encinitas..they were married at the Power House in Del Mar
right on the beach
we lived in Coronado in the 70's..even owned a house there that we foolishly sold
Hello all I am back from vacation did you miss me?

Hello, dan
Hey 2Bit
that place has a nick name neil
hi dan
hi dan
I think it started out as a retirement community
PQ
yes
polyn did you get the re10?
I spent a week in Avalon, on Catalina Island, it was a wonderful vacation =)
26 miles across the sea...
not yet...
dunno why you thought you had to tell me that, west? I only grew up there. ;)
it's compound..what's old is new again and what was done on a stage
well neil we called it that way before you were born..didn't know if the name was still used
West was only showing off, neil. :-)
oh I see. yes, that's still its unofficial nickname.
Haha, Jellen.
do 7/8 please
hi all
nu-unh jellen
hi jmc
Hi, jmc
Ugh. I hate moving... have to get home and pack everything up and arrange a mover. Fun!
hi jmc!
will you have more room neil?
meliae, a canine fast ambulation, and plural
hi again. I just get started on Babble and then get interrupted again.
stid, the sub!
Tell me about your new apartment, neil...
hi stid..wondered what a canine fast was..never say a d** who didn't eat everything in sight
hi nef
thanks Doren.
Hi, stid
bowser's moves on a diarrhea day
Yes, westford. A little more and hardwood floors.. which I love. And a breakfast nook for Dеlіlаh to reside in. She's the Υаmаhа СР-5 you see in my Flickr album, haha.
(((BR)))
hi west, Dorens, stid, jmc, neil, BR and everyone else I missed
hi BR
did i ever tell you that when I graduated with my teaching degree (in 1971) there was declining enrollment, and philly had a moratorium on new hires for a while, so subbing was my avocation?
I like that name
good one babrab
I loved it, Doren -- really loved it today. Then came home and slept almost as long as the half-day assignment! LOL
hello bab
easing into it, so to speak
hope your phone doesn't stop ringing stid
:-D yes, that is how I am going about it. And loving that I have tonight "off" and probably tomorrow as well, though as it gets toward the middle of the year, I shall want more time than once a week!
thanks west
I'm hoping you get to sub for a week for someone before you have to sub for someone on maternity leave
LOL let's hope, Nef!
thanks westford. It just kinda suited her.
nbt
go jmc go!
that was quick
how's the at home situation going nef?
oh! jmc! we are more alike than we knew... remember how I got the house re-roofed because of the leaks in the kitchen???
and i am going -- too much homework see you all tomorrow
so the kitchen didn't leak with all the rain this last weekend.
BUT... where the furnace pipe goes through the roof... it did. So when I went to check on the furnace it was dripping wet.
bye jmc...
TC jmc.
so... roofer came to look and the roof itself looks okay, he thinks there is a problem with the flue for the chimney. So now we wait for the furnace guy to come out next week. *sigh*
gaah stid it's always something
it's rough right now, Dorens. Aunty isn't having a good day again; she's needing a lot of nursing care again today
anyway... (((Nef))) that's too bad.
so you retired, but you're still working? hope tomorrow is better
stid, that sounds miserable too!
the joys of home ownership stid... the longer you own the house the more things you find out can go wrong
working at home; it's been over 24 hours straight now (and for free)
hope you have someone spell you sometimes and take care of yourself. is hospice involved?
well, the good news is I was just checking on things BEFORE I fired it up. So I was able to turn off the circuit to the furnace and put some towels up to catch drips for now.
LOL Doren, too true!
have owned one home or another since 1978... think i've replaced at least one of everything
brb phone
hospice is involved, Dorens. The nurse is coming out tomorrow
good.. then nef, you go out and do something fun, yes?
sleep? ;-)
oh yeah, i forgot about that.
actually, I'm thinking and doing better now than earlier. Must have caought my 2nd wind
still, be sure you rest and have some fun... oh well, maybe babble will be your fun for a while
I do hope you are taking care of yourself, Nef!
Guess what? DTR> just came in with a sprained ankle! Good grief!!!
Babble IS my fun, Dorens
oh my! when it rains....
(it just means she won't be able to spell me tonight with Aunty)
terga
she was going to be up with her from 10 til midnight and again from 6 to 7 AM...
and now she can/t?????
well, she won't be able to help Aunty to the BR
oh sh@#%!
Ditto!
I AM impressed with the swelling, though. :-) She'd stopped at an urgent care and was seen and they wrapped it; so *I* don't have to do that
rofl doren...
back from the phone. it is m-i-l's bday today.
oh man... ice, elevation, anti-inflammatories... glass of wine, choclits...
she's allergic to the anti-inflammatories too, stid. (as am I) no NSAIDS in this house!
bummer. NOTHING?
tylenol is it.
well, at least you have that.
any hints on the de9,66's? thanks for the re10 by the way
I am down to just Aleve that works, all the others make such a big ringing in my ears that I can't function.
(which isn't an anti-inflamatory drug). She can take Tyl #3's and has a few from the urgent care
Good evening to my fellow babblers! How is everyone?
By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! YAY!
I can't tolerate codeine. Drives me up a WALL. Or several walls. Or up trees if I am outside. LOL
Hi, Min
Hey Min! Welcome to the grid!
de9,66's -- instruments/devices that de6,24.
I don't have the de 9, sorry
de 9s are part of the de 6,8,9,8,9,7 group, polyn
Hi Min!
Stidmama, how was your first day of teaching today?
hm. there's the phone again... have to head. Nef, hope Aunty will sleep comfortably tonight so you can rest a bit, too.
Bye stid
Min, it was LOVELY. I was so happy to be there, the few glitches weren't entirely unexpected and I handled them fine, and had a chance to talk things over with the regular teacher at the end so I feel I did a good job. Then I came home and slept for three hours. LOL
she's going to sleep in her new LazyBoy-type chair, stid. Best position for heart failure when it's bad
anyway... (((Min))) thanks for asking. I hope your week is going well. I will be back tomorrow! *poof*
nite stid
Goodbye stidmama! I will see you tomorrow in the log.
please could I have clues for the first tr 4 and 2nd tr5? I'm lost
tr4,4 -- stepped
tr5,10 -- plural of tr4,4 just before that
And if you don't have that, tr + alien, plural?
thanks, neil. that isn't the 1st tr4; but I got it anyway
Or aliens?
Oh sorry! Yeah, I'm not seeing things too well I'm so tired.
it was the alien one. Thanks! :-)
Not much sleep past 2 nights... long drive down here yesterday and apartment hunting.
yw Nef. just sorry I didn't see the right word at first! Haha. duh.
it's ok, neil. I'm sleep-deprived too
No fun is it?
I can't do without much sleep more than a night or two at a time...
my brain turns to mush
My body rebels and refuses to wake up in the morning...
Mine too!
I've found AUnty gets very irritable and has a really bad startle reflex when she's tired. It just about scares the **** out of me! When I'm tired I don't need that!
I gave up on the grid at 5:39,just came here to say hi
Now I must hit the sheets,so goodnight to all babblers
G'night Min
niters, Min
I'm going to head out too. Hope you and Aunty have a quiet night, Nef!
thanks, Jellen. Good night
I'm quitting too. Aunty is sleeping; time for me to catch some z's too if possible/ Niters everyone
hello, I see a few have left, is there anyone here?

hi flosey I'm here with my nose in the grid
hello polyn and joey - I need help, I must have pushed the "Lickety Add" box down below everything and I cannot retrieve it, have shut down and opened up again but still can't get it
and west, hi
flosey I don't use the add box maybe you need to restart your computer?
I've done that west, it's still below the line~!
I like it, you don't have to go back and forth - from chat to add word
oh no
wasn't sure if you just meant you shut down babble
where are those whiz kids when you need them
lol, may have to wait until flip to find one
anyway, will continue, down to 8 words
good for you I have 58 left..best go to the list
I'll help if I can west
I have 58 as well, but i split my attention between this and homework
I'm at 32 left
mostly this though...
thanks flosey I have 2 of the 9's
just picked up on a call from another telemarketer I spoke to earlier and told lher I wasn't interested

ok west, do you have ca9?
don't you hate that
still looking for both de9,66's 8P
yes, especially when I can hardly understand with their accent
just got the ca..forgot to plural an 8
Hi. Sadly I can't do this as my internet is a bit sad. Thought I would say hi
and it's right here on SSI
Also does any one of you smarty pants here do cryptic crosswords?
pol the root word is to find something..usually in police work
I used to herin they're fun
the de9s de6, 8, 7, 8, 9, 7 all from the 6
hi herin
What the HECK is a 3 letter word when the clue is Mount Henpeck?

Mrs BUCket :D

It is one of those stupid ass clues that is going to bother me all day
poly, it's a pl of do7 - animal + a horse will sometimes **** rather than just walk or run
fireworks, at last! last words both re5
Yah flosey.
Congrats flosey.
Well I am going to go and drag my tired butt offline. Have a great day night
have to get something to eat, bbs
And got something funny to show you westford... if you don't mind a little coarse language?
good job. I'm still trying to come up with a three letter animal in the puzzle
come back if you get it herin..going to drive me crazy too
Good night herin.
sure neil
Glad to know that I just shared the pain. That is going to drive me nutso
Laters NEil
do7/40 = do* (not a cat) + a horse's gait.
do8 is the verb form.
A horse can walk, canter and gallop,m but it can also tr4.
THANK YOU!
polyn - if you were thaking me, y/w.
I'm off back to bed now.
Neil - can you help me? please?
what do you need, flosey?
I've pushed "Lickety Add" down below the line, cannot retrieve it
can just see almost 1/4 of an inch of it
I would try to close everything to one side and then grab it with your mouse
Ok westford... sent.
sorry... check email I mean.
Help you with what flosey?
I have tried that joey, mouse cannot reach it - also closed the computer down and reopened - still stuck down below
sorry, I was busy elsewhere for a few.
I know that's what you meant..will look in a minute..racing now
can you right click on the top bar?
thanks neil, please read back 11:28
Saw it but don't know what you're talking about? The Lickety list page?
I can click on the "Hide, Add button but when it comes up that's when I can see a bare 1/4"
neil, across the top, between refresh babble and lickety chat
I don't use that page very often... didn't know you could move anything on it?
I think I've loaded it twice when I was stuck?
I like the lickety add box, saves going back and forth from chat to add word
ok I just opened it to look. What is it you're having trouble with?
Don't know what you mean flosey sorry? I don't see anything like that on the list page?
not referring to lickety's clues neil, it's the little box between Refresh Babble and Lickety Chat, at the top of the babble screen
I don't see anything like that on this page?
flosey I don't think that everyone sees the same thing. I know that I don't see anything like what you are describing
I can refresh this website... my browser refresh, yes. But the only little box I have is this thing I'm typing in here and the one under the grid to enter words... so I'm a little lost?
Neil, my screen is just like yours
oh ok Neil, I use Babble Expert from licketySplitAus:BetaV12
at the top there are boxes:
Yeah. Of course... that's how the website is. Oh then no wonder, flosey. I posted a link to it in my bio just to be helpful... but I've never even installed it myself. I find using the regular site works well enough for me so far.
I've never even seen that program yet flosey.
Refresh Clues, Send Words To Babble, Send Words to Clues, Refresh Babble, Hid 'Add' , Thin, Lickety Chat, Resources and Options
Oh no clue. Never even seen Babbleexpert, sorry.
ah, ok Neil, sorry to be such a silly bother
Huh? did I say you were?
no, I don't believe you would, that was me talking
but I'd suggest shutting it right down completely then reloading it? Maybe that change isn't something permanent and if you do that it will be like it was before you did that?
I am sorry I wasn't able to help you. I tried
Worth a try anywya.
Anyway even. Geez!
I did close the computer completely and reopened, same !
Haha, I notice typos the second I make them... but don't always realize until I've already hit Enter.
I type faster than I think sometimes.
but thanks for your time - now must let others get their requests for clues in before flip
ok, then here's what to do: uninstall the program then reinstall it. It will be all at default settings if it's a new installation.
and thanks also, joey
ok, will do that, thanks Neil, bfn
you are welcome. I thought that I did something wrong that you were ignoring me
Just uninstall and reinstall the whole shebang. That should fix it!
why would anyone ignore you joey?
no, sorry joey, would never do that
I don't know it was just a stray thought
now off to un and re and thanks everyone
And especially for no reason? Haha, that being said there is someone here who has decided to ignore me for no reason, but sometimes you've just gotta shrug, shake your head and realize reason isn't everyone's gift, huh? but I don't think flosey would ever do that... seems too nice.
who is that negativeneil
Not saying, sorry.
And "Neil" is fine btw.
np
You have mail joey.
I will check, thanks
st 7 after the horse please
hi all (including neil) here for the flip
