List on profile.
ty ty ty neil!!!
amazing neil.. well done
thanks again Neil
Yay for Neil!
Yeah, did it again Jellen... hole in head.
our babble savant
your list sure helped yesterday
Did you dheck for that new article link, ru?
WHEEEEEE -- Thank you, Neil!
Sorry if you said and I missed it.
well, I can't think of the un7 -- obviously bedtime so goodnight all...*poof
totally agree and really appreciate your lists, neil!
ty Neil you're a lifesaver
Well some didn't appreciate it, flosey!
G'night, jilli
fiar
and thanks again neil -- can't imagine anyone not appreciating your list
well fooey, Neil, why did they have to say anything at all
Ha, I saw someone when told it was in my profile saying "Who the heck is Neil? Neil Armstrong?" kind of sarcastically... then complaining they couldn't find my profile even though I left myself logged in all day when not here, just so it was easy to find. Duh?
neil, your list has the code in it <BR>
Don't ask me?
And then it got copied into other profiles, which is fine... but so it would be "easier to find without having to search"? Even though I did that? Uh, how is my profile harder to find that anyone else's when I'm logged in... weird?
Code, Dee? Huh?
nm....
What code?
May I suggest thatall here put Neil in your "My Friends" so that you can access a list when he has one?
No, you said it had code in it? What did I fail to remove that I should have? Tell me please, so I can fix it?
I didn't see any code
when I copied and pasted your list into word pad, <BR> showed up
jili, how and where do I do what you suggested?
all anyone has to do to find someone who has played recently is to go to the rankings page and look (or do a find) for that person and click on the name.....you can still find people like moonwoof, who hasn't played for at least 3 years now
ty dart
I was very careful to remove everything I should have?
as long as they are somewhere on that page...and all of us diehards are there
Oh, I didn't copy and paste -- just resized the profile and put it over where Lickety's list goes in Expert.
I miss moonwoof
Oh, maybe because you copied a blank line under it, Dee? <br> line-break code. You copied a line below the last line of the list, I guess?
I copy and paste so that I can tick them off as I find them
I don't remember moonwoof. Me, too, flosey.
she was hysterically funny
well golly!
I just remember the name
Dee, you go to Who's Online, look for negativeneil, and click on Add to Friends. You can do that with sprite or me and keep tabs on the icon themes
you must be right, neil... I just did a "find and replace" and removed them.... no problem.
she was on all the time for a while volley...I'm sure you have seen her
mrp here. will try and do solver. sorry if it doesn't work, will let you know
someday.. I won't be around and dart will say.. don't you remember ruru?
hi mrp
hi mrp -- you're a love.
hi mrp good to see you. Have been thinking of you you all day.
that almost happened ruru... a few years back
hi mrp hugs
lol ru, we could never forget you
Hi, mrp
Oh hi mrp... I replied to your email.
Hope you got my reply ok?
What almost happened a few years back, dart? ru not being around? No ruru... don't leave!
ruru almost gave it up for new year's resolution I think
I vaguely remember that conversation
lasted about a week
Oh no? Geez. You can't give up word games and puzzles like this... way too addictive.
Yep, I'm not surprised.
See what's behind me in this photo, dart?
can't really tell...bars and some kind of building
Oh, poof, Neil! I've been there!
Ok, you'll know what building it is in the next photo... now refresh.
It was 2007... can you blame me?
DC?
Yes, of course.
Although it was in the 70's...
I see, Jellen. I wasn't even thought of then.
was there in '82..and then again the year of the ok. city bombing
Ouch!
clue pls for fi7/40
Well I wasn't born until the end of 1984.
fi7,40 -- more aflame?
Or more on fi4,7.
Or more hot-headed.
You catch my drift...
I'd better change the photo back, lol.
start from the bottom Neil?
No, from the top F
I have 7/44 from the top
Huh, vanillaslice?
Hmmm...my fi 7/40 is from the top F
Oh, that... from the bottom F.
Will need to look for the 7/44
No it isn't, Jellen.
Oh. Very confused now.
There's only one fi7,40 and it starts from the bottom F. And I know my F's... you've seen how many times I use an F-word in my blogs, haha.
haha
lol thx Neil I'll keep lookin
Go left then right, then down and left.
Sorry! Go right then left and up, then down and left.
I'm way too tired for this. :P
[going to raid my brother's kitchen for a drink and snack, then hit the hay when that's done]
BRB!
are we doing a word game or the hokey pokey
brb too...
Message to Lickety: best wishes, and thank you so much for your wonderful lists. I shall miss them indeed. scouser
fireworks...listless.....nite all
ditto that scouser
wtg dart!!
hello all - is lickety not coming back ??
wow Dart, wtg
he's taking a break just now ursh, hopefully he will be back
ty flosey - hope so - would miss him terribly
me too ursh
I am just lost with tis one. fi7/40 is the second fi and must come before the fi.. weather
so it must start with fi vowel
van are you asking for the fi 7/40 after the fi 4/7??
Yes, it does
yes Dee the first fi is 4/7
the second one has a suffix... more of this boiling over (as in volcano)... or more angry or passionate
(And it starts with the top F, honest!)
her passionate speech indicated she was fi 7 than John was about the protest
fireworks ty neil for your helpful list!
Congrats, Dee!
ty jell!
wow Dee, wtg
How many words today please

Thank you, flosey!
continuation of the 4 before it
I'm back... just about falling over from exhaustion, but I'm back while I drink this tea and eat this snack.
fi7,ff -- gun
What's for snacks, Neil?
fi7,44 even. :P
Geez. Told you I was tired?
Don't laugh. Just some toast with peanut butter.
yw Jellen
I just had some trail mix and pineapple juice.
toast and pb is an old standby
It was something I could throw together fast.
I was too tired to do much else.
love pb cookies
I'm sure A has way better things I could snack on but trying to see anything in that crowded fridge is a chore... pulling things out and putting them back. No thanks!
Oh me too flosey... they're my favorite! Those and really good, big, soft and warm from the oven chocolate chip cookies. Yum!
I need to clean my fridge out...it's too crowded for me...
Well there's only 2 of them here, plus me now as houseguest... but they do entertain a lot. People are always dropping over when they're home.
So the fridge is always FULL.
And Mom's here frequently too.
At least they have turnover, because food is used. Mine is mainly old condiments and things I won't eat or drink.
you've made me hungry, having some lemon yogurt
Things you won't eat or drink? Uh, why would you have things you won't eat or drink in your fridge?
Things left over from Tim...
Oh. :(
I found an extra letter in my clues list I have to remove, ugh.
I've gone through and cleared out some, but it's hard...
Yeah, guess it would be. Probably better to get rid of that stuff though... it's just gonna remind you all the time.
Unless you would use it.
But it's probably not good after all this time.
Yeah. You are right.
I had a few science experiments growing in jars in the back of my fridge after I got home from a few months in East Asia this past spring... ugh.
Rubber gloves, boiling hot water and bleach.
haha
I think we're the only life on Babble... and being as tired as I'm am, I'm sure I'm only half-life at this point, if that.
I am still here, just enjoying working from your list, thanx Neil...xxx
Yes, I think you are right again. Think I'll listen to my audiobook a while. Stopped finding words at 2:09.
I'm still here, was just out to the kitchen
Hi, diz
hello diz
hey Jellen and Flos...xxx
been here and there, just been talking to my Mum, trying to cheer her up, she's a bit down cos she broke her hip 7 weeks ago and is having trouble getting around - she's always been very active so she is very frustrated
That would be so hard!
it is, she's 84 and has always been a goer (on the move)...she's back home and slowly adjusting
very tired, must get to bed, goodnight all, bb in the morning
G'night, flosey...
nightie nite Flos
And I'm off, too...G'night diz...
And Neil, if you are still around...
nightie nite Jellen
Just about, Jellen.
I was just responding to comments on G+.
Good night, Jellen. Soon as my tea's done I'll be joining you in slumberland somewhere.
Haha, oops. She was already gone.
yw dizgrannie... sorry about your mom, hope she's healing ok?
thnx Neil, I get frustrated as well cos its a 3hr trip to get to see her, but we talk everyday on the phone
3hrs each way
Wow. Yeah, it's a longer drive than that from where I've been living for the last several years to here [L.A.} where my brother and now Mom live... and about another hour and a half, give or take, from here to San Diego. It's tiring... that's part of the reason I'm moving. Just got a new apartment here and I'll have to drive home, give notice, pack up and move... fun, fun. Did I mention how much I HATE MOVING? lol
[sorry... my dad and stepmom are in San Diego]
Ok, bedtime for Bonzo. List in profile and I'll be in "Who's Online" until I leave here in the am.
good morning
Hi roby
hi diane
very quiet here
I think it just the tow of us.
my fingers are not working right as you can see.
at least, for once, I can concentrate on the grid. Usually, I gab too much
yesterday, I was in the chog and wound up typing about a dozen words into it. I was so embarrassed!
arise
sorry
that makes me feel better, so I'm not the only one.....hah
and I didn't have that, so thank you
I always forget to get right out of this chat box.
me, too. There's evidently something called Expert which prevents that, but I am not savvy enough to install it
Hi Ruby and Dianne, there is a list in negativeneils profile if you want it.
I'm sure we both could install it. I think you have to ask likkety to send it to you. But I'm really not sure.
hello grannie! sorry about your mum's hip and your long drive; hope she's healing well and less frustrated. I never list, just get as many words as I can.....
somebody sent it, but I still couldn't install it.
Hi grannie. Thanks for the list info. I working hard at this one and am down to needing 7 more.
I only have 133 left! hahah
time for DH's apero. See you later!
searching and searching and finally - right in front of my face! One of the last 3 was sooo easy and it took so long for me to see it.
**FIREWORDS** see ya all tomorrow
Dianne, my last one was the last wo 7....silly me had the others...LL
I guess you don't spend much time fretting. Mine
to continue: was one of the getting out of bed ar/5.
LOL the simple ones are always harder (well to me) to find
sometimes I get stuck because isimply going in the wrong direction (that's life..).
how long you been playing for?
Not sure - 2006 I think. And you?
around 3 or 4 yrs
It's pretty addictiive.
See you tomorrow.
see ya xx
Clues list had a few minor "errors" [letter groups not all separated] now amended -- my apologies! [Back to bed with me... see profile for list.]
Good morning everyone.
Morning Sally and babblers
Thank you Neil for making the list and posting in your profile :)
good afternoon all
hiya Sally :) I sent you a message in postcrossing. I finally can!
Hallo sprite!!
Yes, I just read it and have replied.
oh great :) This is really gonna be fun. Am so happy you told me about it.
You have only sent 1 card? I rushed to send 5 at once!
I sent 5 straight away. One was to the netherlands, that is why it was so fast.
and I am sending one today, one arrived means I can send another, yay! And I am sending an extra. Happened upon a special card someone asked for, after I already sent another one.
Oh of course, I was forgetting, it only shows "sent" cards which have been received. I haven't opted to send to my own country yet.
I hope I will get you some day :D
It's such fun.
Oh that would be funny Sprite:-)
yes :)
You realise that all the lurkers are wondering what on earth we are talking about :-)
yeah... but if they really want to know, they can unlurk and ask ;) Or use google.
True.
the one card that arrived has been picked as favorite twice already, that is kind of fun.
Oh I must go and look at what you sent. brb
It's lovely! I have picked it as a favourite too :-)
I have sent some pictures of owls and lots of people have picked those as favourites, which surprises me.
I love owls. I really do.
oh cool :D
Just noticed I am just over half way, but it's taking ages.
not a smooth one?
A bit twisty. I'm out of practice.
good morning all
Good morning wvteach
hello sally
hi teach! Sorry, am half afk
hello sprite
sorry. My son just came home, hugged me and I smelled he had been smoking.
Uh oh sprite!
had a bit of a confrontation and a pretty serious talk. I don't like it that he smokes, but that he is sneaky about it, that I HATE
They are always amazed that you can tell, aren't they.
lol yes. He went white as chalk, eyes staring, you could SEE the little cogs in his head turning to find a way out.
goes to show you can never tell what a teenager will do. Sheesh!
They do grow out of it :-)
Good morning!
hi car.ee :)
good morning car
Hello Sprite! Hi WV!
oh I really hope so, Sally! My mother brain is going all haywire, thinking: if he doesn't tell me this, what else isn't he telling? Drugs? Unprotected sex? Crimes?
Ooh! And Hi Sally!
Probably all those sprite, but not necessarily at the same time :-) And hi Car.
roflol Sally... thanks... I think :P
Main thing is to make sure he can talk to you.
yeah... just established that sentiment for the ughth time
BRB...
he is really sorry. Really. Pretty shook up. I hope that will help. Just sent him to the stores to buy a bulk of chewing gum
Whee! Got an 8!
wtg!
Just found the ea 7/48 (a compound) which I always think must be a made-up word and for once, looked it up. I never knew that. You learn something every day.
my only 8 is a W
Yes! That is the one I found wo 8
:)
ah thanks Sally, got yours too
un 8 -
There's an easy na 8/60 - a normal word.
Did you already know the meaning sprite?
yeah, I look up lots of words
Ty Sally!
thank you, got the N too
I can't believe ai7 (compound) is a word- I just typed it to be silly.
hello Kaplan
good morning sprite
Nice fo8 too.
Hi Kaplan!
Hi
Hi Herin!
hi lady :)
Howdy. Hugs
HI everyone. Happy New Year. (Rosh Hashana)
to you too
I made custard from scratch today. and apple pie. My stomach is all full
I just put the boys on the bus and they bascially were both crying...I feel horrible.
Why Car?

Sounds good herin
<---- slides empty plate over to Herin to load up!
aw car.ee :(
It was great
I ahve never made custard from scratch
They were fighting about Legos. I couldn't take it another minute and blew up at them. Scared the shit out of them I guess. Then they continued fighting out at the busstop. How nice for the neighbors.
ea 7/48 plz
Oh G-d I didn't even realize it is/was Rosh Hashanah. I've hardly looked at a calendar in days.
Kids will do that
hey you teach them to share their Lego. That is a very important lesson in life. You did great. It is not bad when they know you have your limits, hun.
just got the ea 7 and it is a creepy word lol good morning
hi ivesy
HI Ivesy
I feel bad though. Dylan was a mess. And then zack pushed him out of the way to get on the bus first and Dylan fell down. He was so upset. (No, not hurt). I just sent his teacher and email to let her know what is coming her way.
very slow going without lickety list, but we will adapt.hope things are better with them
Hi Ivesy!
they will settle it, car.ee, don't worry
Sounds like they had a bug up their butts from the moment they woke Caree
Ivesy, there's a list in NegativeNeil's profile, and he said he would stay online.
I haven't heard if Lickety has been found yet, actually. Is he still missing?
ty sally i have it..
Clue for the EA please?
havent heard if they found him yet
Lickety was at his father's, but there has been some major crisis and mrp posted briefly to say there would be no list for a while and she couldn't talk about it.
Oh ya, Lickety was at his dad's place, he was found safe and sound.
I got an email from her this night, that he was still missing. Glad to hear he is found.
which ea, car.ee?
I think they have just too much on their plate
He was found, or re-appeared, in the morning.
ea 7? hearing part + creepy slimy thing wo 4/9
I think so too, lady. It is very hard on both of them.
well thk god he ws found.
TY! That is such a popular word right now, I should have seen it.
ea7 = what we call a song that keeps buzzing in your head
I just am grateful for what we have
Five left and just not seeing them any clues please for in 4/4; re 9/78; un 7/44; un 8/60; un7/44

Nice clue sprite! Was wondering how to clue it.
Thanks sprite but got that one
does anyone know what's happening with the licketysplit clues?
There is only one in 4/4 gran
annie: lickety cannot do the clues for a while because of personal issues
can get them on negative neils profile
Is the total for today 201
There's an in 4/7 as well.
you guys must have another grid than I. I cannot make those who bring together for the life of me, lol.
thanks teach......bummer though I love that little help to find words
yes - 201

Hi Ursh
morning, all! ducking in briefly before getting my day started...
hello all
Hi Sue!!!!!! ((hug))
hi ursh and Michelle
and hi uusue :)
Hi anyone I missed
Hi Michelle!
good morning all
hi, car! sorry you had trouble with the little ones this morning - I knew there was a reason I only had one :-)
hi everyone!
(not that he isn't enough trouble all by himself, sigh)
I just feel bad...what a crummy way to start the day.
and morning to michelle, herin, wv, sprite, ursh, and everyone that has scrolled off the screen...
*hugs car.ee* I understand. But believe me, it will not harm them.
probably getting into a different environment will help them get out of it, car, and it was good you let the teacher know
I know, I know....
Car, try not to waste any more of the day feeling bad about the crummy start. I am sure that you will make up for it as the day goes on.
It is a half day for them and we have an outing with the Cub Scouts to the local Audubon Center today and then dinner with friends. I do hope they can enjoy the rest of the day.
yeah doesn't make you feel better, I know... We mothers so want to do it all right. But we can't, and if we could, our children would suffer!
ok, I told Frank that he had to get up when I did, so I'd better get on with my day (it is getting late anyway) - see you all later!!
hiya Molly
and hi, molly!
Hi Molly!
Did I miss hellos?
Well it sure would be easier if they didn't bicker over stupid stuff like Legos!
good morning, folks - and hi car, I'm sure they've forgotten it already :)
I'm sure they'll be fine, car, kids tend not to hang onto things as long as we do
Hi JBV!
hi JBV
Dylan was bawling getting on the bus.
hi and bye, jbv, I am heading out - and hi to herin too, did I miss you before?
Good point JBV. We should learn from our kids. They get over things much faster than we do.
car.ee, kids are great at getting over something like this. They move on.
OK...I will hope for the best then.
Car, you can spend the morning thinking about him crying on the bus, or over it and having a good morning at school. Your choice. : )
hi all, help with left colum e pls
thanks for the un biggies, finally got them

Bye Herin!
Good morning, all! Not to beat the dead horse, but I am sort of terrible at grids without Licketys. It seems to kill my confidence. Is this a managable beast?
Very manageable Uniguity! Jump on in!
hi Uniquity, it is not a smooth one
*Uniquity
LOL! Welcome to Babble Land!
I have, but it's sort of a stumbly beginning. Only 21 so far. But that's better than 0! : )
Even thoguh I don't use the list until the end, knowing it's not available seems to deflate me, lol!
it is a psychological thing, Uni :P
Hello NegativeNeil: thanks very much indeed for the list.
There is a list in NegativeNeil's profile.
Wonderful to know, thank you! (Sprite - I so agree!)
Hi Scouser!
:D Uni!
Is anyone else getting a blank screen when they click on the Lickety link?
hmz a neighbour of ours has died. Just got an email/pdf.
I think everybody, molly. The babble expert is empty too.
same here its blank
I am, Molly
Further to Neil: I copy list into Excel as Unicode, do Data, text-to-columns fixed width markers at 3,4,5 check if there are any over 9 letters which will need manually altering, and then get rid of the comma columns. Then one can search for all the 4-letter words etc with ease.
hi Bea, hi Yvo
Oh no Sprite! So sorry to hear.
Okay, not good. That means there is an internal link problem.
Hi car.eeyore. Definitely not eeyore weather here, absolutely cracking the flags i.e. hot enough to break up the pavement !
Rainy and gloomy here.
I think they are offline for a bit, Molly
Sprite, sorry to hear about your neighbor.
thanks car.ee. We will miss him. Quite a good presence in the neighbourhood :(
thank you Molly
when i firsdt got on this morning it was not blank - now it is blank
I wouldn't be surprised if they have taken it down for now. They really must concentrate on themselves atm.
Hi Molly: and others who have just come on. Lickety definitely out of action for indeterminate length of time. However, NegativeNeil has given us a list for today. Let's hope he can go on helping those of us who cannot find the words staring us in the face.
How do we find NN's list?
grant, go to rankings, search (control + F) for negativeneil and open his profile
hi scouser. Yes, and if neil can't, somebody else will.
hints for the right-most O?
He said he would stay on line, so quicker to go to Who's Online and find him there and click on his profile.
And if you then add him to your friends list, you can find him very quickly in future.

Does anyone else have a bank clue pane in Babble Expert?
on hold with telephone company aaarghhh
*blank
everybody, Jayde. Out of order for indefinite time
Sprite - It was you who had an adorable puppy (Terra? Maybe?) was it not? I dropped off the radar for about a year and I keep getting things muddled. If so, how is said puppy?
Babble Expert is not working.
hi rubyfoo
Ahh, okay. Thanks!:)
Good morning everyone. Can't stay but wanted to wish all of you a great day. ((Hugs))
Ugh, sympathies to RubyFoo. On hold is never fun.
You have a good day too Mom. *Hugs back*
Good morning Mom!
hi Mom
hi Mom, *hugs*
thanks Molly, ((hugs))
good morning Uni, have a great day
the menus are all in French and it is endless. I am trying to pay a bill for which husband has lost the paper.....
((Sprite)) and ((Lynxxx))
I'll be back on after doing the grocery shopping and banking.
bye Mom, I will be gone by then. hope to play togehter soon though
fi7: weapon
I thought you would be that is why I stopped in to say hello. I love this morning group.
Ruby, we went 'paperless billing' about a year ago after our company decided to charge for paper. Plus side - no paper to lose!
Thanks for the fi7, Sprite.
yvw Uni, took me ages to find. I am so bad with compounds
good idea, but husband doesn't want to give them the bank code....
several compounds toay - i think more than usual
I can see the point there. Ours doesn't have any of our banking info, but we did have to make an online account with them so we can look at the 'ebill.'
Of course, occasionally their website has issues and then you can't see your bill at all which I find maddening. I love paper. : )
it makes it harder because the Fr menu is spoken very fawt and I can't get a real person
yes I agree, teach
Can you not send them an email ruby?
Many compounds doesn't bode well for me. I'll have to pay attention to clues, as I am frequently blind to them as well.
I finally got a person
Phew! Just found my last word which was such a not difficult one! Any clues needed?
ah good Rubyfoo
wtg Sally!
Congrats Sally
That was so slow!!
Will be off then if no clues needed.
not for me, but thanks for the offer, Sally. Have a lovely rest of the day.
{{lynxx}}
Gone!
not getting anywhere with france telecom!
that's10 different phone calls -- for which they charge!
Merde!!
very frustrating
another person, I hope she can help.
success! now I can play again
wtg!
I am down to 2, pfew
I didn't even reach half this AM so I had better knuckle down!
go sprite
hello tech and everybody
i can't believe i found 3 F8's and i STILL need 5 more F's!
fireflies. Woot, quite a grid. Must be off, get dressed, organise kids and dinner because hubby is ill, and then go to tough therapy session.
and all on a sleepless night. Blech. *hugs* all and thanks for the company.
I have no 8's, no 9's, not much of anything. This has been a frustrating day so far, having spent more than 1 1/2 hrs on the stupid telephone
ro4ies not a word? pfft!
fo 9, fo 9, and re 9
I give up for now {{hugs}}
ty teach, I'll give them a try
yay, got an fo8!
other is very similar
change last letter
fo 8 - take out middle letter in 9
there are 3.
at least.
some have an s in the middle, one does not.
there are 2 fo 9 and 1 re 9
yes but ruby said she got an 8, and you said other is very similar.
sorry thought she said she got the fo 9
and i'm saying there are at least 3 of those. 8's.
:)
back for a minute, I got an fo8
hah, I added an e and got the 9. Thank you, ladies
change the last letter for another one ruby
I had enough time, BTW, to argue with my husband about the hawk that is hanging around trying to eat the birds on the feeder. He wants to shoot her
thank you, river
she is incredibly beautiful and he is being a jerk
its nature....she is not disturbing your property so she should be left alone
she landed in the tree in which the birds roost three times last evening but I don't think she was successful
I also think she's not a very adroit hunter!
they usually look for small animals..
she seems to like the green finches
Then the very adroits should be safe.
the smacked one into the window the other day and after it flew away she sat on the window box, looking around
I have never seen the hawks at home go after birds...usually the chipmunks
sally said she's a sparrowhawk (epervier d'europe)
I guess she sees the birdfeeder as a hawk dinner plate
she must live in the hills above the house (not sally, the hawk)
our feeders are put away now....got to watch out for bears....only the humming bird feeder is out but I think they will be leaving soon
I'm sure she's the same one who came in the front door on another occasion when she missed her prey
yikes....in the house?
bears? what kind of bears do you have? "little" brown ones?
yes, I carried her out by the shoulders and she flew straight up, what a thrill it was!
I wouldnt say they were little but yes brown bears...we have lost many feeders to them over the years. Just saw one a couple weeks ago crossing my road.
Good morning, fellow planet dwellers.
does anyone know if there is a list today. For some reason I don't seem to be able to connect to licketty.
they are foraging for food now getting ready for winter
NegativeNeil has one in his profile Sandie
Thanks - any idea what's up with Licketty?
Lickety is out for a while I guess
no bears here (they say they saw one about 100 years ago!) and few other visible animals although it is said, by the locals, that there are many wild boar, roe deer and chamois in the cliffs above us
List: http://www.playbabble.com/profile_mini .php?id=54799
we have deer, moose and bear...no boar...what is chamois?
some kind of mountain goat, I think, but they are very shy
Thanks - found neil's list.
no mountain goats here....we do have coyotes and fisher cats
a deer ate all my neighbor's roses, but she lives about 100 ft straight up from us, nestled against the cliffs
100 ft*
the deer eat my hostas
1000 ft! duh me
we saw our first squirrel, if you can believe it, two days ago.
no rabbits, either
we are loaded with squirrels....their chatter is quite load at times
what's a fisher cat?
which color squirrels?
nasty little creature....will attack and eat small animals...my big dogs keep them away from the house
we have both gray and red squirrels
Ruby just stays in front of the house near the feeder, her form of dog TV
86 days; 16 hours; 14 minutes until Christmas
she never chases anything away, even the local cats
my Tori stares at the stone walls waiting for chipmunks to come...has caught quite a few of them.
hi BR, but who's counting?
thats a depressing thought BT
*BR sorry for the typo
I suppose I should get back to work....have a great day all
Any clues please for un 7/44, 8/60 and 7/44
name that proper noun! great actress helen
lovely to see you, river!

same here ruby....
sorry gran...dont have them....poof
Mirren!
thanks for those hurshy
ding ding ding!
what is the prize?
*bows deeply*
three dings.
tea in the PB served in china cups with crests?
ruby, I can see your street, but not your house. Your street is rather narrow
bichon said a wooooooord
smiling, bichon, I'll have to put something bright on the lawn
so I did. Bad me
please forgive her!!!
must be doing Google Earth incorrectly. It isn't real time. I was using street view
Hey all :)
i don't think it's supposed to be real time
hi boat
forgiveness is part of the Christmas spirit
Google doesn't have real time.
I agree hurshy
ACK! Don't say Christmas. It's too early!
there is a way of doing it where you sort of fly around the valley and see the cliffs and all
hi judi
hurshy, if you had not mentioned that bichon had written a word from the puzzle list in their post, I doubt anyone would've noticed. I certainly would not have. I'm not that word savvy.
But thanks for the clue :)
and she was right about my little street
Boat - your icon is hilarious.
yvw boat :)
Thanks Judi!
that is a very funny idea, boat, but they don't show Jersey Shore here (am I lucky or what?)
Hi all
Hubby and I are ROFL
hi and bye boo, have to go and make dh a martini
No doubt ruby :)
The Governor of New Jersey just rescinded a permit waiver for Jersey Shore. Something about the show portraying NJ in a bad llight. Good for him.
I've never watched an ounce of it, and its soooo pervasive in our culture right now, ugh. It's EVERYWHERE. You can't get away from it!
it is hard to find stuff in English with French subtitles as husband is deaf, so "reads" the movies
babblers -- i need some ideas! coming up on my first anniversary, and i need an idea for a gift for hubby. i already have the cards, and i bought the cologne that he bought from disney when we were on our honeymoon. since first anniversary is traditionally the "paper" anniversary, im trying to come up with a unique idea of a paper gift he would really like... id love to give him concert tickets, but i havent found any shows he would be interested in. my other idea is to have our wedding vows printed up and framed, but im wondering if i would like that more than he would...
Good for Christie!! (Gov. of New Jersy)
do you think he will actually become a presidential candidate? I feel very out of touch
Hi Eva
how about a paper list of "promises"
No, I don't because I don't think he's intersted right now. I think he's interested in focusing on his state.
or maybe a "coupon book" of promises: favorite meals, etc
Christie said the other day that he wasn't going to run (this time).
a divorce complaint uses paper
Eva - have you had a wedding picture framed yet?
Eva - how about a paper sculpture? Just plug that phrase into a search engine and see what comes up.
ooh, actually, i DID just find some concert tickets he might really like... i will look into a paper sculpture too...
BR! You are not helpful!
Movie tickets, comedy club tickets.
hello ev1 could someone give me a nice clue for fi7/40 (second fi word) I have been pining over this word and just dont get it.
don't worry it suddenly came
was looking the totally wrong way
Love your icon, boat! I think I'll use that phrase the next time someone calls me to sell television service!
Awesome harpjane :)
The last caller, I got in a long discussion about "what are you reading?" and they had no idea what I was talking about....
Morning friends
Morning Mr Bob :)
Hiya, Bob and Harpjane.
Oh dear (harpjane).
what are the stats on the lone i and the lone r?
I have a bumpersticker on the back of my truck that says 'Read a f***ing book'. I get more positive comments about it than any other.
Lone i is a flower.
boat, can you give me a link to that picture. I want to share it with my friend
I "stole" or rather copied the link from someone else. I don't know where they got it from.
Not link, sorry, picture.
okay
Let me see if I can find it on Yahoo...BRB.
You know what? I just plugged that entire phrase, 'A book commits suicide every time you watch Jersey Shore' into Yahoo images, and the pic shot right up.
, then to Picasa. It worked
Excellent!
saved it to desktop
Time for a break. 93 left. *POOF*
Bye Judi.
thanks for the flower
good morning:) reading back eva..paper anniversay.i found crisp bundle of 100 dollar bills quite delightful:)..lol
Good one crossy!
hah. if only, crossy!
i know he desperately wants new tires for his new jeep. i think it may also necessitate a lift kit. if i had the money, i would TOTALLY give it all to him in cold, hard cash.
morning babblers
is he an atique buff? does he like old things,coins,stamps etc?
Morning Ibuxx :)
not really. he does like Frank Herbert books and Hunter S Thompson. i thought about trying to find a first-edition or an autographed copy of one of them, but the good ones are also out of my budget.
cause if he does,old rail stock/bonds make a great gift,the common ones are not expensive and they are amazing works of art in themselves
books are alway good if he is a book hound like most of us here
sec eve let me check someting..
Eva - Getting a copy of the newspaper from the day he was born and framing the front page.
he likes toys and comics, but honestly, he really has WAY too much of both. and i just bought him some for his bday and will probably buy some for christmas too. so i want to avoid them for our anniversary...
Down to last two - re 9/78 and in 4/4 clues please
Go gran!
boat, i thought about getting a newspaper from our wedding day. i think that might be the kind of gift *I* would appreciate more than him, though.
Does he have a favorite album cover that is precious you could have framed? Something like that.
here eva,scroll though here,there are a few first eds signed by herbert,and they are not as expensive as you might think....
http://www.biblio.com/search.php?autho r=frank+herbert&title=&keyisbn=&format =&first=on&signed=on
Eva, my friend got this for a "both of them" gift on their first anniversary. The idea is, you both sit down together and write your memories of each anniversary.
http://www.uncommongoods.com/product/a nniversary-book?utm_medium=shopping+si tes&utm_source=gifts&utm_campaign=1792 2
Sorry, here is the tiny http://tinyurl.com/4x8dtb6
memories of each anniversary?? lol 7 thru 15 is a blur to me now:)
no actually i remember the 7th..got her that gold chain,was lucky it was in clearance cause it was the remainder of some lost set at the time i got it for 400 dollars..think has 4 ounces of gold in it and is now to0 valuable to wear lol
i found a really cute idea where for your 1st anniversary, you take a photo of yourselves holding your wedding photo. for the 2nd anniversary, you take a photo of yourselves holding the photo from your 1st anniversary. each year, you take a photo of yourselves holding the photo from the year before... i love that idea. :)
crossy, i did come across that site. i was just a bit overwhelmed -- i dont know which books are his favorites, so unless i ask (and kinda ruin the gift) it would be a total shot in the dark...
how many words today?
I remember 40th because it just happed. At my age...
201
thanks bichon
I like that idea about the photographs Eva.
Eva – there’s also the idea of doing tree-free paper, if that’s your thing. You can go here: http://www.ecopaper.com/

I am saving 12% of every paycheck already.
Retirement is so precarious these days. My husband may never get to retire
I also do not see my self retiring until my early to mid 70's unless my health requires it sooner, so 20+ more yrs.

Okay, I was just trying to get to your profile. Now I have the list. Thanks!

I have Neils list, I mean for looking up words like the a to z list
the word list is in flosey's bio (negativeneil donated it to everyone to use)

hi, nef! How are things going at your place?
Hello
hi, jellen!
howdy jellen
"kind of rough, sue. But I'm hanging in there. When Aunty rang for help last night; I dreamt it was a school bell
{{{{nef}}}}
hi Jellen and crossy
(((Nef)))
I see all words but no a to z. is that the one I should use now?
Hi folks, love this game, don't usually chat but I really want to say thanks for all the good clues lately!
sorry to be so dumb about this....guess I was too dependent on Lickety
so sad that he is now a blank......
Nancy; I tell newbies to use AngelSong's Babble page, there's an a to z there
there are 2 ar6,18s before the 3 ar5,10's
Nancy, if you got to Who's on line and search for NegativeNeil, he has a list in his profile.
Hi Chris
he isn't on line now Bzz; but here is his bio: http://www.playbabble.com/profile_mini .php?id=54799
According to negative neil, there are two ar6,18s just before the 3 ar5,10s. Any idea what the ar6,18's are? I don't see how they'd fit in there.
hello everybody
thanks bzzn, i already have that, it is the real work list that I am trying to access for the tough last words.
Hi, ruby
That is about as close as you are going to get, Nancy.
hi folks, I've got neil's list and more words and I still can't find my last fo 4 - can you help? I have four fo 4 and then fo 5 and 7
ar 6 - both musical terms, alternate spellings

and hello to everybody else
fo4 =enemies
never mind, just found it !
of course that always happens
hi ruby and thanks Jellen!

"Until further notice," we were told
Thanks for the ae8!
after what happened the other night, I'm not surprised
Aw shucks....hope everything is okay
I love the word wi 5/18...so expressive...
is there more than one wi5, jellen?
grrr! kids drive me nuts! got a letter from the health dept.seems they are going to suspend him for a month cause they did not get a slip showing updated dipheria and tetanus shots(sp)..i did not even know he was missing any!
Yes.
this one is soo hard for me... help please on the re/9?
wi 5 = wi + double consonant + vowel
a month? wow crossy
a month
ty jellen, is it Scottish?
re + un 7/44
re 9 - to connect people together again re + un 7
I guess there was a note sent home at some point that never got delivered????
a month seems excessive!
Irish, I think
does the fi7,40 build off the fi4,7?
thanks jellen
Yes, pigeon
seems so jbv
Oh, no!
crossy is going to go crazy!
fi 7 = more aflame
it's a harsh consequence - does it take a month to get results of a diptheria test????
well we have a appt set up already for october 8th,mrs and i are getting physicals,maybe we can sneak the boy in for shots,pop over to health dept with recipt and stop this
I presume that's what the delay is for - to make sure he will not infect the whole school
not sure at all jbv
not test...innoculations he is missing
I THOUGHT A dpt SHOT WAS GIVEN TO BABIES AND THAT WAS THAT....
that seem punative cross
whoops, didn't mean to shout, but am angry on crossy's behalf!
oh, I see, well I don't see cause I know nothing about how long it takes for an inoculation to take effect
no ruby,he has had many boosters over the years
no they have to be regiven on a certain schedule, ruby
and I thought tetanus shots were on an as-needed basis
dammit...
I don't think my son ever had additional shots and he's 47!
Hey all :)
I haven't and it's been at lest 60 yrs
when husband got the dog bite, the emergency room gave him 5 tetanus shots by mistake
Hey boa :-)
hiya boat
Is diptheria rampant there crossy
by mistake? my goodness ruby, you certainly have had your stories to tell about that incident
me either, hooty
that's horrendous
As far as I know, generally tetanus boosters are given once every 10 yrs.
if we had been in the US, that would have been a cause for another suit!
I did get whooping cough my junior year and they gaveme the multi-shoy. A little late I'd say.
Hey Jellen & ruby :)
and then, of course, he had rabies' shots....
Nevr mentioned , even for my son
and how is all that healing ruby? does he have scars?
pertussis (whooping cough) has been a problem in US - found vaccine wasn't really strong enough to keep going until adults - now giving more
did they even have whooping cough shots when we were kids, hoot?
no and i had whooping cough as a baby, I remember my mom telling me how bad it was - I was an infant
yeah but I guess it wore off
terrible scars and generally on a downhill trend. We'll know if he'll get damages (maybe) in October and they surely won't be much
we also had measles, mumps and chicken pox (not the shots, the diseases ! ) :)
oh, sorry to hear that ruby
I never had any of those diseases, even though my sister did and we shared a room
well it wasn't a bad case = whoop was gone in about a week. But doctor insisted on no swimming all summer. No reason.
and tomorrow he'll be 86!
well, I'm sure you'll celebrate ruby and give thanks for it not being any worse than it was
Hated getting sick on the last day of school!
it is very rare hoots...just seems we missed a specified innoculation window
does anybody remember scarlet fever? I know two contemporaries who had it and developed St. Vitus' Dance
remember yes - never seen it
I guess antibiotics cure it now
oh and hi
each of them was kept out of school for a year
I remember classmates having St. Vitus dance in elementary school - such an exotic name - what do they call it nowadays - it must be different
my granddaughter had scarlet fever last spring
how bad was it, wv?
probably some thing nasty with no resemblance to reality
ruby - my maternal grandma had Scalet fever as a child. She lost all her hair. When it grew back it came in curly.
*Scarlet fever
Sydenham's chorea (or chorea minor) - I just looked it up
when i had my cancer boat,i went bald and it came back in curly as well
my mother had it after she came to the US as a baby
Not bad at all - the worry is that later developing rheumatic fever / heart problems - but antibiotics dealt with it quickly
Wow, that's so weird how hair does that.
crossy had an afro for a bit:)
that's what I thought, WV
I still do
when my hair grew back after chemo, it had the same curl, but was finer and there was less of it :(
An example of something so bad that will curl your hair
Scarlet feve is usually brough on by untreated strep.
like my cooking?
hootowl - Ya really! :)
no ruby
and now i must leave you all for a while but here is crossys tidbit of the day!!!
I am italian and if I don't use a lot od conditioner I frizz! Bid time!
the myopic hawk attacked a tree in front of the house 3 times yesterday
The Chicago River used to flow into Lake Michigan, but the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers switched it to flow backwards, AWAY from the lake, for sanitation purposes.

hi all
76 words left.....who's got a list?
List: http://www.playbabble.com/profile_min i.php?id=16875
minvr has a list
minver
ok I have un5/14...8/60...7/44...6/33...7/48.... what am I missing?
one of the 7/44 right after the un 5/14
The u's are...un4,5 un5,14 un7,44 un8,60 un7,4 4 un6,33 un7,48
I'm back and I have the list in my profile
clue for that un 7/8 pls
The plural of to gather together as one and the plural of those who do it
thank you....was looking for the un prefix words
Those are un prefix words
was looking for those meaning "not"
love Calvin and Hobbes!
Sorry, I thought you asked for the 7/8 combo
clue for the other un7 please?
One un7 is the person who gathers together as one. The other is the plural of doing that.
anyone?
it's the one who "does" the other 7/44
one who pulls things together?
thankyou all.....
I jumped ahead of myself on that one too
Don't think I said thank you for the list....Thank you!! It's a wonder how some people do without it!
I gathered my list from Flosey, who had it from Neil... everyone pitches in. I highlight it, paste it in my notepad and position it along the left of my playing grid..... SURE HELPS !!
Yes it does!!
then I put an "x' beside the words as I get them
I put the list into word and make 3 columns, then I shrink it down so I can see it next to the grid. Then I delete the ones I have. Works!
"hotdog" !!
with mustard and onions.... :-))
I'm working on the last w words.... LOL
hotdog????
what you put in it ... :-)
maybe you call it a franfurter ??
*frankfurter*
beginning with W???
WE6-schnitzel
yup !
except I think proper spelling has the i first
but it wouln't work in the grid
i believe you are correct. either way, if its schnitzel, im in!
Has anyone heard anything from mrp or lickety? I wonder if that guy that was giving them problems had anything to do with it?
and fireworks.... thanks everyone for the clues that I picked up in chat...It was a much friendlier grid than yesterday !!
and off to make Tuscan chicken for supper... Have fun everyone !
peach: havent heard any official word, other than that lickety was at his dads house. i dont know anything for sure, but i can imagine the stress they have been under with that guy as well as family health issues only multiplied whatever emotions were at hand.
clue for en 5 please
sign up
Thanks EvaNadine. I'm so sorry that they are going through rough times now.
Without making it the topic of chat, I think there are personal issues going on between Mr. President and Lickety that they have to work out. The best we can do is send them good wishes.
amelu, omg, thanks just could not see it
:o)
finished! this grid has given me a headache!
*!*!*! LBD *!*!*!*
Thanks, Molly.
No problem Peach. I know you are very good at sending out warm thoughts and I'm sure that both of them will feel what you're sending.
YAY, LBD!!! WTG!!!
Indeed I will, Molly.
well, i am down to two left, first ar 6 and one of the ar 5-10s. I have a headache too.....
And I agree, Molly. We just keep sending our rayers and support their way and hope that things will work out okay for them. I think many of us care for both of them; but what's going on is something they need to work out themselves. I think things got in chat that shouldn't have; just send love and support to them.
Well said Nef.
Nef, how are you holding up? How is Auntie? I've been "send" to both of you.
sending
can anyone please clue the first ar 6
I'm holding up, peach and I appreciate the support. Aunty is doing very poorly and praying to die again. THis has been a tough week; she needs total care right now. Thank goodness for the oral morphine which helps her breathing
Don't jbiw uf this is the 1st or not: What we breathe, more of it.
((((Nef))))
hey all
Sorry, Nancy, have major sinus problems right now and allergies. Meant to say, I don't know if this is the first.....etc
Nef, if she is ready, then the Reiki prayers will make the transition easier. Maybe "hands on Reiki" will help too. Just keep your strength up. Bless you girl.
gap, I think that is an ai, I need to first ar word
Nancy, were you able to get the "a" you needed?
Hi Stid, how goes it
I am well, Nancy, hope you are also?
Yes, what we breathe ...+ier.
noswaith dda pawb - good evening all
noswaith dda!
Doing ok, waiting for our first breath of fall and the first cool breeze from the ocean.
hwyl Stidmama
is there an AR 6 at the beginning of the ars?
we have autumn, but today is sunny and warm enough to open doors and windows. Which is nice, since the furnace is currently inoperative.
Nancy, ar6...when you c*** enough to send the very best + rabbit h*** (what they go down in)
Oh Molly, thank you so much. Thought I was going over the bend.....
Thank you peach. It is appreciated.
: )
How's lovely Wales today, Glantarell?
(I'm in and out here; tending to her.)
I keep thinking about the red castle...
Thanks to everyone for the clues today....I finally got fireworks.....
Lovely Wa;es is fabulous today - all warm and sunny
YAY Nancy!!!
*!*!*!* NANCY *!*!*!*
which red castle?
woo hoo nanacy
Rhuddlan? Red castle on the banks of the river?
the one you showed us -- reconstructed at some point, but destroyed because it had been such a major pain for the British. Now it's more a victorian fantasy of what a medieval castle would have been
it had Goch in its name
I think
or Coch
oh - doh - castell coch!
Coch= Red
YEP! that one! LOL
I was at Chepstow castle today - stunning
oh wow. I bet it was, in that sort of weather!
Congrats, Nancy!!!!!
That's a pretty big fortress, isn't it?
YAY, Nancy!!! WTG!!!

I have set up an education progra,mme there - 'preparing for her ladyship' - where the 8-11 year olds help a servant get the room ready for 'her ladyship' by setting the table,making the bed, laying out clean clothes, getting her hunting tbhings out
*grin* your server is currently overwhelmed...
what a great idea! I bet the kids really like that
i jus got on - darn it
the kids really enjoy it - what's sirprised me is how carefully 8 yr old boys lay her ladyshop's clothes out onto th ebed
it's okay, I'll look again in a little bit.
all the Babblers of the world tried getting on at once. :-)
the local schoolkids are going to the Oyster festival in Shelton tomorrow for a field trip. They are going to have a great time
ROFL Neff
I love looking at pictures of castles, sure glad I don't have to pay to reroof any of them!
I haven't been on for a week or two - difficulties with hideous husband, but see there's no list form Lickety...
Re-roofing costs many hundreds of thousands Stidmama
Re-roofing costs many hundreds of thousands Stidmama
yep, mine cost 6G this summer -- and it's not even close to that size.
Stidmama - I have created an online resource to go wioth my physical resource in the casltes - you may find it of interest:

good afternoon all
Hi there, Mom.
hey Mom
Hi Mom
hello, gapeach, so nice to see you
hi Stid and Molly
Hi Mom
thanks glantarell, will look in a bit. Have it bookmarked.
Hi Glantarell! I was telling my sweetie of your experience with your husband and how you have taken it upon yourself to do "therapy" he loved it. He said you were his kind of gal. :-)
sorry hear the horrible husband is still causing trouble
Glan, both sites say the same thing: maintenance downtime or capacity problems. So it's very possible that it IS the Babblers of the World messing with them!
The hideous hisband moved out yesterday ;-))
really!, excellent news
woo-hoo!
Oh wow Glant, I am SO HAPPY for you!
YAY, Glan! That is good news (for your sake!)
Nef - I can still gt onto the Cadw website from here...
We need to have a Free At Last party for Glant.
I am delighted he's gone - but I did actually go against all my principles and tuirn into an unreasonable screaming banshee to achieve iot
he said I'd had a 'personality transplant \lol
To paraphrase Delores Claiborne...sometimes being a banshee is all a woman has to hold onto.
after what he did, Glant, you had every cause to turn into a banshee
i have been EVIL - and th evil will carry on for weeks but I've also been subtle so he'll never be sure LOL
Glant, the end DEFINITELY justified the means. *Pats Glant on the back*
he brought another woman home the friday before last and I walked in on them (intentionally)
I have used a 'seam ripper' to cut the threads form one button on every one of his shirts
I have slit every other stitch up and down the back seam on every poair of his jeans
I love it!
just reading back in the chat, gland, and see that your HH is gone - YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and good for you!!!!!
I rubbed rosehips onto the inside of evey pair of underpants and some shirts
(acts as itching powder)
oh, and hi, everyone!
Glant, nothing you have done could possibly be worse than what he has done to you.
hi uusue
I rubbed all the condom packets he'd left around with a cut chilli
i just took small and irritating revenge
but when he bought another womnan inbto my private bathroon, and used my towels, i saw red
and he still didn;t leave
so three days of me swearing at hom and tellinghim he was hideous seems to have done the tick
and now he hs gone (wonderful) and I have been cleaning the house frantocally
love the chili!!!!! you are BAD, glant!!! :-)
GOOD FOR YOU, Glant!!!
I love the chilli too!!!
and hi, mom, your icon is creepy but I get that it is from your son's film
Beautiful Glant. Get rid of every trace of him. Perfect.
not permitted to change the locks though?
well, the revenge hs to suit the crime...
not permitted to change the locks#
it is creepy. He is a camera man for the film.
are you permitted to possibly adding a lock?
He goes to New Zealand for 6 months at the end of October - wonderful - but he has told me he won;t be paying anything toards the ortgage for the 6 months he'll be gone - not so good
uusue, I am not a zombie person or a western person but what I have seen of the film it looks pretty good
hmm, nev er thought of ADDING a lock - thans MOM!!
are you able to garnish wages/pension for times he does not meet his financial oblications
you're welcome
He has also aid he won;t move anyn of his stuff out
No, stid - we own the property jointly, we have a joint debt on it
then you should be able to charge him a storage fee
at my choice, we have overpaid the mortgage for a few years - we have 7 months payments in credit
which means, if he doesn't help pay for the property mortgage, he is not meeting his obligations -- there should be a clause of some kind that gets activated if he does that, so ...
oh, I see.
that might come in real handy now, Glant
i am tying to work out whetehr ot it better for me to keep paying my share or to say i will not pay either
oh well.
Glant, when you divorce will the property be sold?
but i am so glad he is leaving the country for 6 k=months
maybe you could put his stuff outside?
although he plans ot come back on my birthday -I'm sure he's planned thta
if so then I would think you would be entitled to a greater percentage than he would since he isn't paying
under a tarp in the garage...
and what Mom just said
the property is already on the market but the UK property market is at a standstill
i plan to advise him tnhat anything he leaves behind i will consider to have been abandoned
and therefore disposed of
he can have the pittance the house clearnace person pays
on these judge shows they have here on tv, if someone moves out and leaves their stuff, the other person can advise them that if the property isn't removed in xx number of days if will be discarded. If he leaves it they have been awarded judgements for storage fees
wouldn't it be great if it sold while he was gone, and he wasn't around to pull his things out...
i have told hi that may happen - the problem is that he won't set up anythin g legal to sel in his absence
then he would just have to get his butt back there
he has said tht he#ll 'fly back form New Zealand' if it sells
which is ridiiculous
it would take some burden off of you if it would sell Glant.
he's not a very nice person, is he?
i have asked him to set something up with a lawyer sp tnat we can sell quicklyif an offer is made
he has the skin of a rhin
i am not sure whther he does things on purpose, or whether he just doewn't think things through
*rhino
kind of hard to tell sometimes with guys
:-)
fi7/40 pls
it's all been going on since 2008, I only found out in spring 2010 but it's carried on for way too long sionce then
I have an fi 7/44 that is a gun word?
sorry Peri, I don't have it but I can help look
but no fi 7/40 yet
actually, I have to head out I think. back later.
bye stidmamma
*poof*
bye bye Stid, enjoy your day
peri, is it before or after the gun?
before
ok, I'll help you look
Glant, I threatened DH (back when we 1st got married) that he'd never see me again if he ever hurt me physically or emotionally after hearing about a "friend" of his who was messing around. The second half of my threat was that he'd be sorry because I'd figure out how to make him pay for it for the rest of his life.
fi 7/40 - more aflame - but switch the normal placement of the fi 4/7 that means flame
i hope that makes sense, lol
Nef, I discussed what was accetable and whta was not when first consdieering marruiage with HH as we'd both been married before.
Hi Nef. Good for you. I pretty much told sweetie the same thing .... he has to sleep sometime
normal placement of the vowels i should day
say
in the fi 4/7
It was clear fro our discussins that deception and betrayal was unforgivable
wow - it is not my day, lol
it did Wolvie, ty
wolvie - not quite getting your clue - which i need LOL
I am thick today, would you try again, Wolvie and hello
take the fi 4/7 that means flame - switch the vowels in that - put them in the middle of the word, then make that word more so. lol
fi7/40 fi + P*** asked for this clue + I am giving it to h**
oops, sorry for not saying hello wolvie
nice molly - ty for the rescue
np Gian - i almost never do either, lol
phew, thanks Wolvie and Mollyh
*Molly
i lurk alot
you really shouldn't lurk, Wolvie, hop in and chat a spell
ty wolvie and Mollly
The spelling of some of the words in this grid makes my fingers twitch.
lol - i like that sentiment molly
american spelling or british spelling or spanish spelling Molly?
I have been playing 6 years now and I finally broke the 2 million mark
wow
not me, lol
Plain old dumb spelling Glant. : )
bb later - doggie wants a walk. :-)
I am no where near Peri and Marigold and lots of others but I do enjoy playing and the company we keep
bye bye Wolvie
Ah, Wolvie is a Carolina girl. My sister is in Black Mountain.

hi bichon
hi bichon
This takes be back to when I first started playing, there was no Lickety's list
this computer set up at the library is really uncomfortable
it is good for us to stretch our muscles with out lickety from time to time
agreed
and makes us all be helpful to others
but i don't know if i would have stuck around without substantial help when i first came almost 3 !!!! years ago
has it been that long already? I didn't realize
i just checked i started november 28, 2008
that must have been the weekend my son introduced me to the wonders of stumbleupon
where has the time gone?
sweetie found it for me in an article that was in USA Today
its gone to babble grids everyone!
when will we ever learn? when will we eeeeever learn!
I played 2 days before I paid the $15 to be pro
:-)
how nice mom
I'll never learn
i played a few weeks and someone emailed me and asked if i would be offended if she paid for me :-)
I told him he was going to be sorry that he ever introduced me to this
she wanted to support my work and i thought it was sooo nice
is he sorry?
how sweet, jmc
n
he said he has never been sorry.
JMC had a benefactor. Who knew?
hi pumm
he might be tonight, he is getting grilled cheese for supper.
lol now that is a sweetie
hi pummpkin
oh jmc, I am truly blessed
Attention! Mom has removed the June Cleaver pearls for the evening! Go Mom!
haha molly
I had to remove them, I mowed the grass this afternoon
you are just lusting after those pearls
*Gasp* Mom, you don't mow the lawn in pearls and a crisp, starched white apron?
sweat is good for pearls
the apron slows things down too much
hi all, took a phone call (from a nice man!) but back now
not today I didn't
wb glan
Look at Glant! Deadbeat husband is gone for one day and she's talking to a nice man on the phone. Go Glant!
Molly, I didn't want to be to showy for the neighbors
ooohh lala, glant
bbl
Better that way Mom.
bye bye gapeach
molly you are such a trouble maker if i weren't all the way in harrisonburg i would come and smack you
(in a quakerly manner of course)
bye ga!
how does one smack in a quakerly manner?
haha that is a quaker joke of course
ROFL - I've been talking to nice man for 2-3 weeks but he is only interested in going out for the ocasiona meal and trip to the cinema (which is FINE)
of course. :-)
ooooooo glan
i take it all back molly glan is the one in trouble now! haha
ha ha ha
how nice for you glan
actually, a bit of the right kind of trouble would be welcome right now :-)
Tsk, tsk, so quick to judge.
i wish i was talking to a nice man--at least one who wanted to hire me as an executive director
your halo is slipping there molly
however, no lickety has made e realise how much i depended on his list
I know. It keeps getting tangled up in the pitchfork.
since the pearls are off ..... guess who's going to be dessert.
[blush] mom!
MOM!!! (Love it)
I am trying to think of the song from Funny GIrl that has that line in it. It escapes me now
woo hoo - Mo;ly with PITCHFORK - I ne ver knew LOL
(just teasing, Glant)
probably sadie sadie married lady
the honeymoon was such a delight that we got married the next night
understand the teasing Mom ;-)
she is in his room for dinner. He says a bit of pate and she says I drink it all day.
brb, this is driving me crazy (short trip)
You are woman, I am man
gotta scoot, sweetie is home
ah that is a good song too
bye mom
okay and alas i must go ea4/4 my vast sum and then drive back to DC -- here's hoping i get back in time to babble!
but, of course, there is always time to babble!
*blows kisses and runs out of chog*
Over the mountain and through the woods, to JMC's house she goes
plugging along, down to 33 left
hello friends
(((((mrp))))) how are you doing, hun?
i have seen the chat... lot's to be said, i just wanted to say i am greiving. lickety went missing, there was no major argument, there was no issues between us... he fucked up, really and truly and instead of facing things, he 'ran away'. we have my MIL here, Lickety never made it to his Father's and continues to be missing
Oh oh, I thought he went to visit his dad
Oh mrp thought he was at his fathers do you have any idea where he is
Since monday night, when he went missing, we have been piecing together what may have happened for him to behave so .... i am seeing the doctor, lawyer and police this morning in 1 hour... it is now Friday
Sorry, it was all very confusing. I do remember a post saying that he was at his Dad's. I guess that was misunderstood.
hope for the best mrp
sounds like you have a good plan.
I appreciate the positive thoughts, but please, let babblers know that i am looking for my husband. that is all I can say for now... i have cried a river and am looking after my kids. I won't go into this, i need to understand more and find out more today.
sending you hugs and prayers mrp take care of yourself
and any other gossip is just that. Thanks all and will get on later when i have half an idea of where we are at. sorry, i am being short, but i am pretty emotionless today. yeah, happy birthday to me. fuck my life and will just move forward for now.
thanks friends and bye
Hope your birthday has a happy ending.
bye, mrp
Hello mrp, just came in, thoughts and prayers are with you. (((HUGS)))
Well that is just the strangest thing. Someone must have been posting as Mr. President the other night then.
mrpresident oh he called my friends and family. He is up with his father at the moment... only he forgot to tell me about it! 6:43 pm MissOmnibus call rehab clinics and priests and psychiatric services and get interventions sent over at like 4 am every day for a month 6:43 pm MissOmnibus P 6:44 pm mrpresident i havn't slept all night, because of a whim
So im kind of new to this. Ive seen people posting for hints like mi9 - where do they get the second letter? is that a hidden feature or by deduction
No, usually there
hi, Molly and hi everybody - mrp if you're still there, just know that there is a lot of Babble love being sent out to you, to Lickety, the children, everybody - please hang in there, things WILL and MUST get better for you all
crud!!! usually there's a list of words that gives the first 2 letters and the stats. The person that usually does it is offline at the moment.
champ and mojo, there is a list available in negative neil's profile - and maybe a few others, hold on I'll try to find it for you....
thanks jbv. I'll need it eventually. Words have stopped popping out to me!
mojo, there is a list in the profile of negativeneil today. go to rankings, use a find command on the name, then click.
I looked in rankings but don't know how to find his name - how do you do the find command?
Awesome thanks. I would have never figured that out lol/
hit control F JBV and type his name
control F in a PC. command F on a MAc.
ok, thanks, I never knew that!! saves my eyeballs a bit from scrolling up and down :)
also works in word, excel, etc.
well, am I the last person in the world to learn that? I've only been using computers for 20 years or so....
thank you again - that may be the most useful piece of information I've ever gotten here in Babble
And there's plenty of it!
JBV, I have NegativeNeil'es list in my profile if U need.

thanks pigeonman
FW
happy babbling all
I ar5/10 early to start babbling,but never got ne4/4 to fi4/7works. It is ra4/4 for me to finish big grids. I feel that a story of clues is needed since it is hard to babble with ea4/4 with such a huge grid and no list. I was in a shoe store last week on the lo5/18 east side of Manhattan when a male with a fi 7/44 came in and robbed it. This man was fi 4/8 about getting what he wanted.He made the ow5/18 of the store give him all the money that was in the register. He was a fo 4/7 and made an un6/33 decision to not we4/8 any mask which made it ea 6/18 to identify him.Could fo4/7tell that it wasn't going to end well for him.Anyway,after the robber left, all the witnesses had to give fo 4/8al statements giving in 4/7 about the events that took place. I le4/4ned on the news the robber was caught and arrested.He will not be rele5/10d any time soon, because he has prior arrests. This man ow4/8 people alot of money in legal fees. But I don't care about his financial wo 4/8. I ro5/10 the police for being wi 4/8 and catching him quickly. If I have to testify against him I'll sw5/18 to tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Even though I know he is locked up,I can't era4/4 the scary event from my mind. Hubby is a wo 7/44 & wo7/44 every time I go anywhere alone now. Hubby is being an ar 4/4 and wants this computer to brow4/8 the internet.Can see the fr5/24 on his face as he waits for the computer.If I don't give it to him, he will hit the ro 4/7. Now I am going to be a ri 5/10 and ri4/4 out of this seat and go get a glass of wi4/8 and watch the movie "One Fi 4/7 Day". Be back later.
I haven't seen on of those from you in a while Min! Always entertaining!

does anyone have a clue for un8 please?
So that's what that means. Thanks! I've been doing crosswords a lot lately, and the NYT ones use a lot of babblets like that. : )
un8 -- those who gather others together
un8 - ones who bring things together
un8 people who bring things/people together
That un8/60 word is plural of the un 7/44 word flosey
thanks lyn
Over halfway, huzzah! Without Licketys, that's about as good as it'll get, I think.
hello all, briefly
and Min
must go now, supper's on the table
Hey Jilli
didn't see my clue, eh flosey? It was the first one.
I have 19 left and I'm trying to decide whether to continue or call it good.
Ciao Flosey! Enjoy your supper
hi Jilli
hello uni -- long time!
hi Jilli Bye Flosey
hi lyn
It has been, Jilli. I got on a long break but have been off work this week and had the time to get back into it. When I work a full week, I feel like there's not enough time, sadly. I hope you've been well!
how nice that supper's on the table for flosey. My late hubby used to do that too...
I've been fine, uni -- hope you'll be able to find more time for this friendly place.
Love your kittykat picture, uni!
Thanks, Jilli. That's my precious Emma being cute. She goes more for laying on her back lately, from the heat of summer. That's gone away quickly though...Fall is in with a cengeance the past few days!
hi, folks
G'd evening, Welki!
hi Welki
*wanders in, scattering choclits and hugs*
Hello welki -- another Canadian flag! And one Aussie. Commonwealth conjunction!
*Grabs a couple choclits for later* Allo Stid!
And stid is an honorary Canadian...
(((Uniquity)))(((welki)))(((Jill)))((( lynxxx))) (((everyone)))
Hi Stid
There are a lot of Canucks on right now.. : )
LOL here we are!
believe it or not, the Oxford dictionary spells it " honorary" and not "honourary"
canadian expat in NYC

hmph. tried to change to a Canadian flag and lost it completely!
<-- is originally from nyc, too
I'm just a reg'lar Nova Scotian. : )
who has the list today?
brooklyn, baby
I've heard that negativeneil has the list, but I believe a couple others picked it up as well.

There is a list in my profile if U need to use wildcat17.

Hello jillibus! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid.
Hello welki!How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle
ah, Jill, but you'll always be Chinese to me.... rofl
Hi stidmama! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
%^&$# stid
I seem very stalled at 107. I think that's all that's here.
I'm down to 47 so keep looking
I have a story of clues in my profile if anybody needs.
ye gods, just watching Corrie go really steamy and edgy!
Shhh, Wildcat. There are only 107.
17 left and I'm calling it a night. *poof*
*grins impudently at Jill -- and ducks*
hehe
hey, grandma :)
this grid is kicking my butt:(
sweet dreams Bea
hi :)
he's a whole month old today
Jill -- hadn't seen you in a while, how is the new library coming?
<-- misses having tiny babies around
I'm sure you could find a tiny baby somewhere, Welki. We won't tell anyone. : )
stid, it's building up and hope is that it will be ready in about a year. Meanwhile, the temporary quarters up the hill are working extremely well.
Hi crosshair! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
howdy min
I think that fr5ier should be a word. This grid is making me fr5ier than I was an hour ago!
that is good news, Jill!
hi, crossy
hey cross
howy stidmama
howdy welki
ooh! I figured out how to get my flag!
yaa for stidmama!!
you've had many a flag in your day, stid, and welcome to ours anyway ;)
ae8?
Anybody heard from mrp? I think she obliterated the clues completely...
:-D
hi stidmama! and hi everybody
erda, I'm glad she did -- it avoids confusion. She did say last night that she would try to supply the clues, but I guess she didn't succeed.
Erda, mrp was here earlier = things are bad, she says Lickety is still not home, no other details
Yes, r46.me babble clues comes up as a blank screen.
Hello JBV!How are you doing?Welcome back to the log
hi Min
Is something wrong with Lickety?
What did I miss?
ae8 taking the 'shape' of air
She said Lickety still isn't home and he never made it to his dad's house. She wanted to make it clear that he never got to his father's house and is still MIA.She has contacted the police I think. I hope that he is ok.
Lickety is taking some time out
what?
Lil*Monkey, he was missing, then there was a post that he was found, then today a correction saying he was never found. It's very complicated, and I think they all need time out of the limelight, as it were.
Ah well -- I was thinking of abandoning this game, as we were faced with more and more utterly ridiculous and obstruse words. Maybe I'll do it now.
yikes
hey those who came in while I was on the phone.
no, don't give up ERda - we can still have fun with Babble even without the clues
I can't believe she would offer to do list when she has so much on her plate already. How so very kind of her
hi stid -
It takes too damn long to get to the end...
and there are lists and such.
(((JBV))) so glad to see you here this evening!
hi stid - I think we've changed places.... are you teaching? I've become a student again!
ty
LOL I am substitute teaching, and helping in friends' classrooms on days I don't get work. Why are you back in school?
I really enjoy the satisfaction of completing the grid, but I've learned to enjoy just giving it my best. That's usually all I have time for anyway. : )
I'm taking an Italian literature course at Rutgers - I go in two days a week - I'm loving it!
2nd and 3rd ar6/18s please
NM
what grades, stid? middle school?
Hi JBV et al.
Nel mezzo di cammin di nostra vita...
well, the friend I helped today has a 4th grade classroom, but want to write to my 7th grade friend and see if he can use me, too.
hi neil,
hey neil
JBV, that sounds amazing!
and hi erda - that will be my next challenge, not quite there yet :)
hi stidmama.
missing one ar5/10
in the middle of the road of our life?
Stick around there JBV -- it's really worth it!
as I've said to many people, to me Babble is is much more than a word game
it's from Dante, stid
It's the chog... the grid is just an excuse.
Yes, but it has been over 20 years since I read L'Inferno
Which ones do you have? I'm guessing you need this one: ar5,10 -- ar + ***e and shine?
Opening of Inferno.
I really took the course as a way to improve my Italian, but I am also learning a lot - the content is quite challenging - we're reading and analyzing literature and cinema -
good guess ty
and the ea7 please
I'm a pretty good guesser. yw
Right now, I can probably make it through childrens' books...
List in profile if anyone needs it.
LITTLE childrens' books, that is!
Okay. I'm stuck and off to bed. Ciao, bellas! : )
Pinocchio!
ciao Uniquity!
nite uni
ea7 compound, yucky insect in your hearing organ
Try subscribing to Italian TV -- it keeps the language in your ears...In the US, Dish TV has it.
yes, and cippolino, maybe -- with a dictionary
bye Uni
ty lynxxx
forgot there was an E over there
I have an Italian channel on "speed dial" on my ipad, actually
I watch RAI news, Erda - no subscription needed, half hour each night, and there's also a lot available on their website
yes! RAI is the one I have been watching sometimes
Yes, but I have it 24/7
Over where, wildcat17?
stid -- crop your picture square! Youre not that squished!
Or send it to me and I'll unsquish it like I did to Jellen. She looks much better unsquished.
I have to go and warm up that deli supper...cul8r
LOL it is a square on my computer, not sure why it did that. I don't mind looking peculiar, though.
Neil -- is that you in front of the War Memorial Opera House?
I can still fix that if you want -- if not, cool.
(((Jill))) ciao, buon appetito!
first fo7?
It's me Erda, yes... but a war memorial in Washington DC, during my time as a WH intern post-grad.
Neil has a lot of pix of himself -- I don't!
first fo 7 is a body part
Ah -- thank you. The War Memorial Opera House is in San Francisco and I've been there A LOT...
okay, down to 61 and I am tired. It's been good to see you-all! *Poof*
You don't have a lot of pix of me jilli? lol
ciao, stid
I do have a recent passport pic, though, lol!
Don't know why you'd want any? Dart boards?
You have some photos of yourself on Flickr.
Bye, stid -- I still have 98 left...
I've seen them... can't fool me.
I know it is Erda, yes... I've been to San Fran quite a few times too. I'm from San Diego orignally and have lived in Santa Cruz for almost 8 years... moving to L.A. very soon though.
only a few, neil, and quite a while ago
Uh, orignally even. Can't type.
I've been thinking...if anyone can replace Lickety, it will probably be Neil...
and now for cabbage rolls and perogies...
Mine are mostly silly photos... go figure. Many of them just too silly to post.
yum Jilli
I don't think anyone can ever replace anyone else. And I don't have his program... no clue how he does that page of his?
I always thought computer gurus can just look at a program and figure out how it's programmed.
ty
fi7/40 please
fi7.40 something with more flames
<-- Outta here
Neil, You were fo 4/7 to spill a word. Now U can goto the Penalty Box,LOL! Oh and by the way, hello to you
Goodbye Erda! I will see you tomorrow in the chat log
not getting the flame clue
I did not get flame clue earlier either. Then I gave up.
starts from top F - you are probably leaving out the second vowel
I just got it. ty lynxxx
omg done with the F's
Fantabulous widlcat17!
I agree!
What word, Minveryork? And hi to you too.
now I need the first in5
Sorry for delays... doing too many things at once.

good evening, all! back from a very nice dinner...
(scuse my spelling, not feeling too flash)
hi Sue
Hi Sue!
Hello uusue2! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
hi, lynxxx, neil, and min!
I saw the "reprimand" Min... but if it's the only word I think it could be, it still doesn't make sense in that context?
I only have a few words and probably won't get many more, but I did get a bunch of work done today :-)
Or "just doesn't make sense' I should've typed. I'm too tired again... long drive today.
firewords
Congrats, wildcat.
ty this one was work
Congrats Wild!
Anyone still need a clue for the fi7,40?
I am just kidding w/you anyway Neil.Nothing to take seriously. Why did you have such a long drive today?
and goodnight to all
Congratulations wildcat17 on fi4/7works! Good for U!
Goodbye wildcat17! I will see you tomorrow in the log
Because I had to return home from L.A. after hunting for and securing a new apartment there. Now I've given my notice and have the fun of packing... ugh. And arranging movers.
I should mention that I really HATE moving.
But I'm looking forward to it at the same time... I'll be much closer to my family and able to see some of them a lot and the others much more often than I have, over the last several years. That will be nice... and the new apartment's great. :)
I'll post photos of it on Flickr when I get moved in and settled.
I hate moving too. I have done it several times and it did not get any ea 6/18 each time I did it. Good luck!
No. It never does, does it? Don't know about you but I just seem to accumulate more and more stuff over the years... despite trying to keep it to a minimum.
But moving has a way of making you get rid of a lot of junk you don't need too... so that'll help clear out some of the clutter.
Me too & what makes it worse is that I'm a pack rat, don't even attempt to keep things to a minumum Neil.
During my last move,husband said I needed to get rid of like a whole wardrobe of clothes.Got rid of 5 things
back for last few
oh neil, I hope you don't mind, I put your clue list in my bio - giving you the credit of course, but just to make it easier for players to get when you're not here, ok?
Did the same thing flosey. I always give credit where credit is due.Thank you Neil for posting the list today
stuck on the first few lo's -- have the 4/7 and a 5/10 then nothing until the 2nd 4/4
lo5/18 is the opposite of upper and plural it cybernan
Hi.
lo4/8 is l + to possess something. lo5/18 is l + ow 4/8.
Hello herinfernallady!How are you? Welcome to puzzle
Hi Min and thank you for your welcome
Neil you moving?
ty min -- just need the lo 5.18 following makes not so high
got it :)
Yes, herin.
We just down sized ourselves. It sucks
Of course I don't mind, flosey... why would I? I wasn't online all day, so that was a good idea and would've made it easier for others to find.
thanks Neil
I was just puzzled the other day, that's all, because someone copied the list from my profile to theirs and someone else was telling everyone to look in that other person's profile... even though I had left myself online so mine could be easily found and that other person wasn't even online later. Weird?
fi7 help please?
yes, I remember that, and understand
Oh, I'm not moving for that reason... I'm reluctantly leaving beautiful Santa Cruz because my family and I want to be closer to each other, plus I'll get more work down there.
fi7,40 -- "flamier" but also more of a temper? More hot-headed?
I should've said "more aflame"... sorry. I kind of gave the word away saying it like I did in that clue.
Neil we moved a 5 bedroom into a 4 bedroom combining my 1 bedroom. Then moved into a 3 bedroom. We haven't moved but we now have most things that will fit into a 2 bedroom.
Hi all.. just logged in to try to finish after a busy day.. negneil, ty for posting.. I'm going to your list and am grateful for it !
It is nice to be near family
You're very welcome, Aloyisius. :)
Hi Aloy
Yeah, sure is herin. I've lived so far from them for the last nearly 8 years now... and really missed them. We get together when we can but with my being such a long drive from them all, it hasn't been as often as any of us would've liked.
hi herin! long time , no see.. hope all is well with you
i tried that this morning and can't get it, hm.
And just call me Neil btw, Aloyisius.
Everything is great
harpjane? I gave it away with that clue!
super duper, herin!
Neil we figured that if the landlord raises the rent we will have to move. Most 3 bedrooms are out of our price range these days.
When I said "flamier"... which I shouldn't have. What's another word meaning "flame"? What burns hot and is comprised of flames?
i only get a six letter word, maybe it's just time to quit...
ok, Neil.. (-:
There's only 2 of you, herin? You don't really need a 3 bedroom then. Or even a 2... but the extra room is helpful I know.
hi all
We chucked out a 4x4 meter skip with crap and still tossing out stuff.
hi Harp, work from the top F and there is the second vowel which you are probably leaving out
It's not easy to live in a 1 bedroom apartment when you're a couple, but my ex and I managed for a while... until I had to kick her out. But that's another matter I won't get into.
oh, there's a TOP f? lol that might help....
Hi Carlee and Lynxx
Hi carleekat.
got it, 'twas a brain thing....
We have a 3 bedroom - one is my room one is the library and one is the master bedroom
The fi7,40 is from the bottom F, harpjane.
hi Infernal
hi herin.. hi lynxxx..
And sorry, I should've mentioned that.
Probably.
hi Carlee
nope it's from the top one, neil
and hi neil
Hello Aloysius!How are you doing?Welcome to the grid
We need the room for a library. We have wall to wall on both sides with books.
Oh la de da... you're so spoiled to have a 3 bedroom! The apartment I'm moving into is only a 1 bedroom, but I could turn the dining room into another bedroom if I wanted to... which I probably won't. And at least it has a breakfast nook, which the one I'm moving out of doesn't. That will help!
Hi harpjane! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
But the whole place is more spacious, so I'm happy. And hardwood floors, which I love.
Hello carleekat! How are you doing? Welcome to grid.
hi carlee, hi minver.. left to grab a glass of water
sounds lovely neil...
hi aloy and minver
And I'll be paying exactly the same rent I have been, even though it's in L.A. and in a nice area. So that's not bad at all. Mind you, SC isn't cheap either.
What can I say we like room. We are both used to large houses. But there is some really lovely apartments out there that are 2 bedroom
Yeah, I'm pretty thrilled. Mostly to be near my family again and in a place where I'll get more work without having to travel so much... it's been getting tiring.
O that is great. I have heard LA in parts can be pricey. I have a friend that lives in LA
Yeah, herin. Don't we all? Can't blame you there... I'd like that too.
I SOOOOO want to downsize.I have a three bedroom house and it is just me and hubby. Would like to have a condo/atownhouse. My friend downsized and loves it. We just cannot afford the mortgage on the house.
We don't have a yard though.
It is kind of pricey but so is the place I'm leaving. At least it's within my budget because it's the same rent I've been paying.
Min I have been cleaning and downsizing everything since May.
i want to downsize in a couple years... move to an apartment..am renting a 3 br house... am sick of yard upkeep and snowshovelling...
We also have a big backyard that takes a lot of work.
Then you should, Minveryork. It's never a good idea to live beyond your means. I won't go any higher than what this place will cost me. I just can't at this stage of my life, when I'm my only source of income.
Oh yeah, property is a lot of work!
My parents did the insane thing and moved across the seas to Tasmania. They love it there. They were so worried I would mind
The housing market is so bad. Not a good time to sell.
That's one major advantage to apartment living.
Why is that insane if they love it there?
Min great time to buy though. Sadly that requires more money
Oh yeah, I guess there is that to think about.
and its just me most of the time... i hate the idea of hauling groceries up and down an elevator...but i want to be in a decent 2 bedroom apartment...
It was insane as they had to move everything via sea boat
Hey, better than up and down flights of stairs!
Hubby & I rented for YEARS and did not want to keep throwing away our money.But if we sell the house it'll be a loss anyway.We'll be throwing away money again
Pretty easy on an elevator. I've done that for enough years now.
does anyone have a clue for ea7 please?
ok, I popped in a bit ago, popped back out again, and am going to bed even though I only have 60 words. So there. Night, all!
i will never be able to afford ownership its jsut a fact aht due to dxh i will be in debt until i die...i hope to be out of debt by time i die so my kids dont inheirit it
If we had the money and I had a job I would have a deposit for a place and one in mind at the moment. And only $150 more a month in repayments than we are already paying
goodnight Sue
Hi and bye Sue
more than me sue...."o" words
Anyway, it's a long story.Hubby has been out of work and I have had it w/him. Want to downsize by myself.
nite sue
Min you need to find in your heart what you and only you want
Goodbye uusue2! I will see you tomorrow in the chog.
But when you own your own home, your property taxes can be as much as some people pay for rent in apartments, depending where you live... shit, my brother's property taxes are more than some pay to rent a house each month! Mental. Mind you he's in a very upscale N. Hollywood suburb. And is a house ever really yours? So easy to lose it... scary.
<---- has catonassitus
Well, unfortunately it is NOT the same thing he wants
I'm not even sure I'll ever want to own a house at this point. But then I'm only 26 and single at this point... that might change in years to come.
That is why you need to figure it out together
Anyway, I should not have said anything.I don't want to talk about. I get upset.I am off to bed. Goodnight!
Neil at 26 I had just got my own apartment and was getting my wings again.
Goodnight to my fellow babblers! I'll see you tomorrow
O Min. Love you
night minver..take care hun
*POOF*
fireworks - that last word was awful! ea7
I actually googled that word, carlee.

Yah floosey
ty carlee
cat on ass itus
and herin
yay flosey, wtg !!!
i still struggle to think of my 20's
Aww sorry, Min. :( Sure didn't mean to upset you?
Ummm, you have a cat on your ass?
[still trying to figure that out]
yes... i do... i am laying on sofa..on my stomach....on laptop and my cat is curled up on my ass
Awwww. How is that big puppy Carlee?
Oh! Haha. And I was thinking huh? How is that even possible if someone's sitting at their computer?
Well duh me.
Laptops are great for lounging
big puppy is such a sucky boy...( up to 80 pounds now)... i've missed him the last couple days... ( school and work so not home)
Sure are. That's all I have... 2 of them. A PC laptop and a Mac notebook.
Wow Carlee. He has grown
i came home from schol just 1/2 hour ago and he crawled into my lap and nibbled the ear like usual
Sounds delightfully goofy and playful.
Oh congrats, flosey.
he is that neil... he's a gorgeous black german shepherd
I have been debating whether or not to do my test to see if I can get into Law
go for it herin if that is what you want
They're great dogs, carlee. Have known a few and loved them. Grew up with 2 labs though... one after the other.
I have no idea what I want
( grew up with chihuahua's here... and have had cats for 20+ YEARS.... going back to a dog..and to a large dog has been..interesting...but he is sooo fun )
My parents already had a Lab when I was born... she belonged to my dad before he met my mom. His parents got her for him when he was still a kid living at home and she was his... so he had to take her with him when he moved out.
I thought you had a lab Carlee. Don't know where I got that from
She was very pale... almost white. I guess that's probably why someone didn't want her. She was adopted from the pound when she was a pup. Sad that she was surrendered.
I guess her color just wasn't right. Stupid.
She was the best dog.
We have so many staffies and amstaff's at the moment at the pound surrendered in light of tomorrows new slaughter law
its the ears herin... we taped his ears for a few weeks but they are sooo big they still wont stay up... but if u look at my pics there are a couple with his ears right up
Why bother trying to alter the ears
frig my brain is tired..and my body is..but i am still wired...
cus everyone thinks he is a lab but he is a shepherd
as soon as u see him with his ears up there is no question and i get tired of people stopping me on the street when i am walking him...oh..you have a lab...no..acutally he is a shepherd....
then they proceed to argue with me like i am a moron and dont know the differnece between a shepherd and a lab
and since his colouring is not typical of a shepherd.....
Neil - this is what I am talking about http://tinyurl.com/3or9zuk
*!* ta da *!* - was beginning to wonder if I would ever finish!
back at the flip :)
Carlee is he a black Shep?
*~*~*POMPOM TOSS*~*~*cyber
yes... he is a black shepherd..that is what i said
Not that uncommon colour. Love the look
but with flopped over ears...he looks like a lab
Awww
My friend has a Belguim Shep. She has been abused for starving her dog. Her dog is naturally thing
i just get tired of stupid people stopping me...oh..what a handsome lab...no..acutally he is a shepherd... and yes i understand that....when panz had his ears taped i couldnt take him for a walk...i was screamed at for cutting his ears....i didnt... we taped them...
I would never have thought that you would be cruel to him. Does he have bat ears now?
yeap... he does...
awww
Sorry at the moment my net is chocked I can't see more than one page
( and to go to a completely different topic... today..in all 3 of my classes including childrens literature...discussion came around to transubstantiation...HOw WEIRD is that????)
I need to look that up
( follows the eucharist when catholics believe that the bread and the wine actually become the body and the blood of christ )
I just found that out
now..i get it that we talked about it in my religious studies class as we are discussing christianity.... BUt... in phil of religion when we are discussing the socratic Natural law theory and contrasting it to the divine command theory.... and in childrens literature whilst talking about the little mermaid????
I like bable I learn things
were you discussing Tom Lehrer's The Vatican Rag?
Gigle Harp
no harp we werent
What the frog does the Little mermaid have to do with it?
the symbolism of the little mermaid being asked to kill the prince and let his blood spill over her legs the lead her back down to the sea is antieucharistic
or uneucharistic perhaps... either or
Is that a Hans Christian Andersen story?
but the blood will seal her legs to a fin tail again...yes harp it is
wow, i never knew that. I don't know if I read the story. I watched the movie years ago while I was recovering from surgery, don't remember much about it
Carlee I have not heard of that ending. Maybe I have heard the kids version which is she doesn't marry him she dies and becomes foam.
the disney version totally different....the mermaid is essentially a siren... and a souless creature and she desires to have a soul...the only way is to attain the love of a human...
I mean the actually book ending not the Disney verson
that the one herin..before she dies..she is asked by the sea witch ( through her grandmother and sisters ) to kill the prince... she refuses... and thus dies..then becomes an air angel or something or other..thus able to gain a soul after 300 years of good deeds
My fav stories as a child were the Red Shoes and the Tin Solder and I don't mean the PC version
Back again. Got busy there doing stuff.
Carlee I should go look this up at the 2 books I have at the back.
Hi again Neil
wb, Neil
ty herin and Aloy.
Oh my G-d carlee. Just read what you said:
"then they proceed to argue with me like i am a moron and dont know the differnece between a shepherd and a lab"
A friend of ours had a tri-color Sheltie. You know the breed... Shetland Sheepdog? Some people argued with her and even got pretty abusive, because they had said "nice Border Collie" and she proceeded to tell them that's not what the dog was... and told them the breed. The dog was oversized for a Sheltie but geez, it's still not hard to see the difference.
yeap.....i should know what kind of dog i have... one would think..but..apparently i am just a dumb blocde
Unless you really aren't familiar enough with either breed to know what they look like.

Yeah, no shit. Some people are just morons. I get plenty of those "attacking" me all the time via Twitter... it's amazing.
I love it with my friends Belguim shep. People abuse her for starving her dog when her dogs breed is more wippet shaped than shep shaped
There's a big difference between a Lab and Shepherd. The shape/bone structure alone is very diffierent... enough that you should be able to tell even if the Shepherd's a pup with flopping ears.
ok..i just changed my icon to a younger pic of panz
Yep That is a sheppy face
Belgian Sheepdog you mean, herin. Belgian Groenendael
The solid black one.
Yes I did sorry. She has a shep coloured one
Or maybe the Tervuren? That one's marked like a German Shepherd but has a longer coat.
the solid black dog is my dog..yes
No short coat
Oh ok, that's the Malinois.
he's short coat
But it's a Belgian Sheepdog.
I'm talking about the dog herin's referring to, carlee.
No Shepherd
Not yours. Yours is a German Shepherd. Different breed.
You said "Belgian Shepherd" so I'd assumed you meant the "Belgian Sheepdog" breed... which resembles a German Shepherd?
Oh hey, there is a "Belgian Shepherd" too. What do you know... also known as "Chien de Berger".
Well I sit corrected!
anyway..bed time all
Haha, which now I'm seeing is the same dog as the Belgian Sheepdog. Ok, I'm confused.
Loves Carlee
Good night and sweet dreams Carlee.
sweet dreams, carlee
She is a belgian shepherd malinois. Great dog. hates kids as they tormented her
Neil she looks like this: http://tinyurl.com/6zh9wto
Oh ok, yes. Know exactly which dog you mean now. They often don't get along with any strangers, not just kids.
I know what they look like. I'm familiar with a lot of breeds.
She is a high drive dog. Needs lots of mental exercise and training. She is a great dog. Walked outside with a muzzle which is fun as I can pet her through the muzzle which freaks people out
When we got our second Lab we all went to the obedience school with him... saw all kinds of dogs there of many different breeds. The Belgian Sheepdogs were common there, because they do very well in Obedience, Agility, etc.
There were Groenendaels, Tervurens and Malinois there each week. Beautiful dogs!
Yep. That's exactly what they're like.
She is at the best age now for police work. I love her to bits. But always with every dog respect her space
Don't know why it would freak anyone out. She's your dog and has been raised by you so of course you can do that.
No she isn't my dog she is my friends but I have known her since she was a pup and she gets that I trust her and respect her space and her humans
Or am I wrong? I'm kinda confused because I thought you only had cats, no dog?
Oh, haha. Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
Yes, if you've known her since she was a pup she's used to you by now.
I have cats. Not dogs. Can't with the cats and renting and no yard
Oh yeah, you couldn't have a dog like that with no yard.
Yes but she is very protective of her humans. I am very good with dogs. I respect their space and their manerisms
Those dogs are.
I think it applies to all dogs. The only times I have been bit is those stupid floor mop dogs
Not really... some dogs aren't protective at all. Malinois are probably one of the most protective dogs. They're just naturally that way... don't even need to be taught that. Bouviers are the same way.
She has a Douge (French Mastiff) too.
Dogue de Bordeaux, you mean.
Yep
HI. I just thought I'd let you all know that Aunty passed away this evening with DH and myself at her side.
O Nef.
Nef, I am so sorry.
Oh no, Nef! I'm so sorry. :(
Aw, Nef.. hugs
Oh my gosh. How sad for you both! For your family. So sorry to hear this news!
Must be a shock for you. Thought she'd been doing a little better? Very sad. Hugs!
Hugs the NEf
Hope she had an easy passage.
Thanks. Everyone has been so supportive here that I thought I'd let you know. She had had a very rough week, but her last few hours were peaceful. Thank you all for caring.
That's very sad and an awful loss. Losing a family member is always so hard.
Nef loves
You really loved her to take care of her like you did. She'll take that with her.
thanks. She's gone to a better place and there's no more suffering anymore.
I believe that too, Nef.. bless her heart.. checking out here.. bye, Babblers
we did love her very much, neil. She was a special lady --but she never felt she was special
Nef big time hugs
Aww. That's sad, Nef. We've just had a comment thread going on G+ about insecurities... everyone's been sharing theirs and getting feedback from the rest of us. It's sad how hard on ourselves most of us really are and how we don't see our self-worth like others do. It's so common.
Bye and take care, Aloyisius.
I am going to go. Loves and blessings Nef
Take care herin.
You too
Will do. ;)
evening all. just scanned back, sorry to hear about aunty, nef
Hi jes!
Aunty had a list of affirmations I'd taped to the side of her bedside table and told her to read every day. My friend sat with her yesterday when I had to pick up my dtr. (she'd sprained her ankle). My friend sat on the bed and Aunty was in her new LazyBoy chair and my friend said she read the affirmations and thought: "I wish she'd believe even ONE of them!"
Aww. I wish she could have too.
that's sad, nef :( why was she so down on herself?
hey neil
It's so sad she couldn't believe her own self-worth when all of you were affirming it.
Aunty was the youngest of 5 fatherless girls raised in the Depression (her Dad died a month before she was born in a farm accident) She just never got over feeling poor and helpless I think. Anyway; sorry about such depressing news; I just wanted you all to know that it's over.
Oh man. How sad, Nef. Must've been really hard for her mom to raise them all without him... especially during that time. No welfare in those days!
So sad her own dad never got to see and know her.
And don't apologize, Nef... all of life isn't happy and we have to take the bad with the good. You were right to let everyone know.
NBT
WTG jes.
I get the sense that Nef is the pillar of strength in her family
with 69 found. Think I'm stopping there for the night. sleep sweet, all. (((Nef)))
Yes, ruru. Probably so I'm thinking. And hi.
night jes
Ok jes, take care.
hi neil.. how goes it?.. when do you move to LA?
Not for another month... gave notice and now I have to get packed up and arrange movers. Tons of fun!
I hate moving.. I'll never do it again..
Spent a large chunk of today driving home from there.
Yeah, it's a major PITA.
unless I leave here in a bag
Oh ru. Don't talk like that!
If you leave in a bag; ruru; you won't have to pack it! ;-)
I'm changing my name to negativeru.. you won't mind will you?
lol nef..
I just hope I"m not recycled or something
sorry, sick humor tonight (I helped "pack the bag" tonight. It was a nice closure
And I'm serious; but that sounds like I meant it as a joke
not a problem.. I have a very sicko sense of humor
you are the doer in your family Nef.. I can tell
I am the doer also
Aww ruru. Isn't one negative enough?
Oh btw ruru... in a post A made on G+ the other day, I left a comment that would crack you up, I think. Wish there was a way to show it to you... I did take a screenshot of it just in case we figure something out. I could send it if I knew how?
Yes, ruru; I am the doer in the family.
It's the kind of comment that you'd be best advised not to be drinking any beverage while reading.
I can send you an email neil.. I'll do it right now.
Yes, Nef, it's pretty easy to tell.
Ok ruru. you'll enjoy this.
Pardon my language though.
I'm going to bed; take care everybody.
