he is marvellously talented, and very charming, he spent at least 10 min with an elderly man in the audience , it is probably built in to the show to give him a breather, but he does it with real warmth

definitely

not too many super stars seem to have his "decency level"

9:39 am

Definition is a Malay verse of indefinite length whose first and third quatrains repeat the second and fourth. Now don't forget to use it in a sentence, and it's yours!

9:40 am

nbs

9:40 am

padi

9:40 am

oops -- wrong box

9:41 am

Listing...

9:44 am

What, it's like a Malaysian limerick?

9:44 am

Interesting... the no/5/14 is the singular of the babblet no/4/4. Can't say as I've ever seen the singular in a puzzle before, though the no/4/4 is a common one.

9:45 am

Apparently, Molly. As soon as I typed it, I thought that the definition of a limerick would sound pretty bizarre and obscure too.

9:45 am

I might actually get a chance to use it--I'm going to Kuala Lumpur this July.

9:46 am

Jan, our international traveler.

9:47 am

We have a pretty international crew here at Babble.

9:48 am

Down to three...

11:04 am

an 7 is the heartburn remedy

11:05 am

pa 7-8: cooking untensil + last part of kitchener's city in the Suda

11:05 am

11:05 am

A brand of which is also in the grid. Although my "name that proper" game clue failed miserably this morning.

11:06 am

11:06 am

How about pa7/8: *****mime + dad and m**

11:06 am

yes -- that spells it out Rosa

11:07 am

11:07 am

too much of a clue?

11:07 am

It's a hard word to clue. And some of the clues given have been confusing for people.

11:08 am

A fine line to tread.

11:08 am

11:10 am

NBT! Yeah!

11:12 am

It's twisty Roses.

11:12 am

why do they put a p in the corner if you cant use it?

11:13 am

I believe the grids are assembled randomly

Unintelligent design.

11:14 am

welki, are you still here?

11:14 am

And then a computer program deciphers how many words are in it.

11:14 am

Can anyone list the stats for the P words?

p7 and 8

11:15 am

pa4,6 pa4,6 pa4,5 pa4,5 pa5,12 pa6,21 pa7,40 pa8,55

11:15 am

Many build off pa4/5, 7 & 8 are uncommon

11:16 am

Uncommon is putting it mildly

3:25 pm

3:26 pm

I penciled it in on my google calendar

3:27 pm

3:30 pm

Redskins lost : ( Broncos won : )

4:00 pm

hi peeps

4:01 pm

As many as there are grandkids

touche.

4:02 pm

Hi Hoot

4:02 pm

soory Kap. Not being a wise gut. It is true thou. It depends on vocabulary and associations that are not obvious to grownups

4:03 pm

hi molly

Wise gut. Indeed.

4:03 pm

Good grief - and I haven't had a drop! guy guy!

I have only been offended once in all my months on chog, and this was not the time.

Now...

I''m not even telling when it was. Isn't that passive aggressive?

4:04 pm

ok - I know I come across kinda weird sometimes. Just nudge me when I do

You did not come across as weird.

4:04 pm

ok

4:04 pm

but

Besides, if YOU'RE weird, what the heck am I?

4:05 pm

babblers

I refuse to believe there are any more than 5 m's.

4:09 pm

There are - think old lamb with a mid letter removed

And this extreme skepticism is another reason why I will not see fireworks tonight.

I have that mu. Is there more?

4:10 pm

sure you will! what is old lamb called

Am I missing some fish that goes with the lamb?

I have the genetic deviant ninja.

4:10 pm

first is an electrical thing

4:10 pm

and pl

uh-oh.

4:11 pm

then you mu** finish

4:11 pm

then the one that isn't like all the rest

I monkeyed 4.

4:11 pm

the lamb meat ant mix breed dogs in short

I got them.

4:12 pm

ok!

4:12 pm

do you have the pa8?

Yeah, I do.

4:12 pm

pa 8 is the pl of the 7

4:12 pm

weird word

4:12 pm

May I have a clue please

I am missing a t. and nother t. and 4 n's.

4:13 pm

I know Bichon

pa4 and weird ending- not a common word.

4:13 pm

I kinda figured that

sounds like it could be turkish or something

ah, but it is a Malay verse form consisting of an indefinite number of quatrains with the second and fourth lines of each quatrain repeated as the first and third lines of the following one.

I know it's on the tip of your tongue.

I just wrote one the other day.

4:15 pm

Do you have the N that 0% milk is?

No! Thanks!

Sneaky one!

4:16 pm

okkk! How about the an7?

4:16 pm

It settles your stomach Hoot

I do not hve it.

4:16 pm

an 7/36 word is heartburn relief hootowl and hi there

YES!

4:16 pm

hi min!

4:17 pm

Hi to my fellow babblers! How is everyone doing today

4:17 pm

By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! YAY!

4:17 pm

ty - a real fish!

I was not terribly overweight, but I got rid of 10 or 15 lbs of middle aged creep-on fat, and guess what? I think my heartburn disappeared.

I probably traded it for osteoperosis or something, but what the hell.

I stopped taking clcium supplements last year. Should I start again?

I have the clothing, villages, heartburn med. Also the Malay verse. What 7 am I missing?

4:20 pm

I went to morewords for the pa - done!

4:22 pm

Hello everybody :-)

Cheers.

4:23 pm

Hello Soodle! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid.

4:23 pm

Kap... I went to bed last night humming those songs...

4:23 pm

an7, ca7, ca7, no7 and pa7

4:23 pm

Hey Min :-). Im good thank you. And you?

ah. Tno7...

4:25 pm

Oooh, thank you Hoot!

It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing.

4:25 pm

yw

4:25 pm

<------Lurves swing!

4:25 pm

yeah!

4:26 pm

*Cues up Glenn Miller's "In The Mood" *

4:27 pm

oboy!

Pardon me Boy, is that the Chatanooga Choo Choo?

4:27 pm

I'm next! Harry James!

I love that song, except the "boy" term is racist

I got my fare, and just a trifle to spare

4:28 pm

Foxtrotting around the kitchen......... (Am wearing a tatty old dressing gown, which spoils the image somewhat..)

You leave the Pennsylvania station at a quarter to 4

4:28 pm

Just think of him taling to any boy and you'll be ok!

read a magazine and you're in Baltimore.

Dinner in the diner, nothing could be finer,

4:29 pm

I used to do a hellofa Jitterbug. I think I might injure something now.

4:29 pm

Is that the cat who chewed my new shoes?

than to have your ham & eggs in Carolina/

The Porters were all African American though.

When you hear the whistle blowing 8 to the bar,

then you know that Tennessee is not very far...

4:30 pm

Don't hold on to the bad stuff!

4:30 pm

LOL Hoot :-)

I know, but it's unfortunately part of the history. I think Benny Goodman was the first to have an interracial Big Band.

4:31 pm

Sorry. I was born & raised in NY and the last 7 years in Tenn have been a jolt back to the 50;s

4:31 pm

Tatty Dressing Gown sounds like the name of a grunge band

In a good way>

4:31 pm

They'll steal it now!

A Ne Yorker in Tennessee?

4:32 pm

No kidding Hoot. Prejudice is alive and well down there.

4:32 pm

Yup! Its the Soodle Swing look...

4:32 pm

You guys serious? Are things really racist in the South?

4:33 pm

I was amazed! I'd try to talk to someone in a supermarket and be snubbed. It's better since we got rid of the JA who was mayor for too long tho

4:33 pm

very serious I'm afraid

Racism is very much alive and well, though in mu7 forms. Often subtle.

4:34 pm

Oh my. I'm amazed to hear that. I thought the world had moved on............

It's not like the Jim Crow days, but it's definitely alive and well. Conscious and unconscious.

4:35 pm

Well it is a lot better since we got rid of him. His only platform was that he was black and all the other blacks had to vote for him

4:35 pm

what city hootowl??

No, Soodle, humans will always scapegoat, unfortunately.

4:36 pm

Hello snags! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid.

4:36 pm

He won the last election with 23% of the vote (6 candidates) then quit 2 months later!

4:36 pm

memphis

4:36 pm

ok.

4:36 pm

ty min for the welcome

Stuck inside of Mobile with those Memphis blues again?

4:37 pm

hoot, why did he quit?

4:37 pm

I am okay soodle.Sorry for late response.Was doing a story of clues.

4:37 pm

On the plus side, there is a lot of good blues in Memphis. : )

4:37 pm

He actually ran against a white man who had been elected to a primarily black district on the basis that since he was black he deserved to take over.

4:37 pm

To change the music genre....'When will we ever learn'.........

Graceland.

4:38 pm

this was after he quit mayoring. He lost 69% voted for the white guy!

I m getting engrossed in chog and forgetting grid.

4:39 pm

Of course, the very same thing is happening here in Ireland. We have had a huge influx of Nigerians here in the past 7/10 years, and its been a difficult transiton. Racism is alive and well all over. :-(

4:39 pm

Maybe this will help you remember Kaplan the Magne..

4:39 pm

they are learning. Slow but sure. But he spread his poison for better than 20 yrs so it'll take a while

4:39 pm

here in the midwest, racism isn't .......... my daughters home is filled with kids of all races. they come to play and visit with my g/s's

4:39 pm

I am ho 4/6ing on to my last three word until later so here is a story of clues.Husband ca6/21 seem to find a job.He has been out of work for two years.Hubby's da 4/8 if he thinks that I'm going to keep supporting him.Hubby mu4/6 get a job soon or else I am going to ou4/5 his butt out! I get pa4/6 a decent salary, but not enough to support two people. Things have been very tense and we have been on the ou4/5 for a long time. We sn 4/5 at each other all the time. He thinks I am a sn5/10 and all I care about is money. I tell him I am not a sn4/5, but I DO care about having food to eat and a place to live. I ca4/5 live under such tense conditions much longer.I've spent to4/4 of time here on Babbleland so I'm going to take a break. Now I am going to st 5/12 up and go watch the film Ca 5/12ball Run starring Burt Reynold.I will be back later to finish

4:40 pm

It's sad to hear stuff like that Hoot.

4:41 pm

When I was in NY I always had all the kids in the house. We deliberately picked a mixed neighborhood!

4:41 pm

Racism doesn't just exist in the south.It exists in NY.

4:42 pm

Well it is getting better. I've had women approch me to talk and that would never have happened 8 years ago.

Racism is very often covert and comes packaged in assumptions.

4:42 pm

Min - Lovely story as always. Thank you :-)

4:42 pm

we can only hope.

4:43 pm

Is the story true Min?

4:43 pm

Yes but it isn't like here. I dated black guys in NY. I had many black friends. Here I'm grateful that they stopped avaoiding me!

4:44 pm

Yeah, I was thinking the story was kind of sad, not lovely.

Cultural adjustment for you, Hoot.

4:44 pm

Yes, unfortunately it is very true. I'm at my wits end.

Is the story true?

Oh, I'm sorry.

4:44 pm

I am sorry to hear that Min. {{hugs}}

4:44 pm

Is he even trying to find work Min? I know that has got to be hard on you.

4:44 pm

Racism in this country is particularly insidious. For generations, this country has exported its people - to the US, Canada, Oz. NZ..... And when the economy was good here, folk came here to seek a living. And met with hostility and racism. Shame on us.

4:44 pm

Min, I am sorry,

4:45 pm

I always thought it was part of your story.

4:45 pm

Thanks car.eeyore and hello, welcome to the chat log

He might be depressed. Not that that helps.

4:45 pm

It must be very difficult for you Min. You are a good person

4:46 pm

((((Min)))). He is lucky he has such a lovely partner.

4:46 pm

Yes, he is trying to find work.He has a few jobs here and there that just didn't work out. I also have some pressure from my parents who want me to leave him.

4:46 pm

They would never outright tell me, but I know they do

that's awful. in this economy. What is his field?

4:47 pm

Oh, Min... thats dreadful. You are being pulled in two different directions.

4:47 pm

Hello peoples

4:48 pm

Hello Mark

4:48 pm

I'm sorry to hear that Min. That puts you in a very difficult position.

4:48 pm

So sorry Min. Ppl only want what' s best in their opinion, but............. you know what is best for you.

4:48 pm

Soodle and Min. It has been quite a while!

4:49 pm

Hello Mark Jones!How are you doing? Welcome to grid

4:49 pm

Hello Mark.

4:49 pm

I am quite well, thank you.

4:50 pm

Group hug for Min....Always cheerful, always welcoming and always giving lovely stories....

4:50 pm

Hello. Just starting today's grid. Been finding decorations for our tree and making sticky buns. (Still working on them.)

4:50 pm

My parents wanted me to stay with my ex. Diff generation. My mother & father I think hated each other but a divorce just isn't done.

4:50 pm

Hello stidgmere! How are you doing? Welcome to grid.

4:50 pm

Hey stidg

4:50 pm

Hi stidg.

4:51 pm

Anyway, on that note, I have to go make dinner. BBL.

4:51 pm

Bye min!

4:51 pm

Hello minver. Hi mark.

4:51 pm

Thinking of you ((((Min))))

4:51 pm

Hang in there Min.

4:51 pm

Hey Stidg (((())))

4:52 pm

It must be hard for parents to see their daughter carrying the sole financial burden in the relationship.

4:52 pm

bye min - bye all of you. My supper must be prepared also. bbl

4:52 pm

But in this eonomy, these things do happen. And, quite frequently

4:52 pm

Absolutely Molls. And bye Hoot. Take care.

4:52 pm

Oh for sure Bich.

4:53 pm

Hello Bich ((()))

4:54 pm

I did a stint with a non-working partner and I understand Min's frustration.

4:54 pm

Hi Soodle, Molly

4:54 pm

clue please for no 6?

4:55 pm

It's my husband who works. I retired at 62 and I never hear the end of it.

4:55 pm

no 6 what a dieter might consume

4:55 pm

What 0% milk is Car.

4:55 pm

Good grief! TY both. Shameful fireworks for me.

4:56 pm

<------Had a duvet day today. Cleaned the windows, scrubbed the kitdchen & bathroom. Not the usual 'lick and promise' ..... even got the retired toothbrush out to clean the bathroom. Feeling a bit sanctimonious.

4:57 pm

Good for you Soodle...now come do my house!

4:57 pm

A duvet day. That means cleaning. To me it means resting in bed and reading

4:58 pm

Me too Bich, I was confused.

4:58 pm

I do love it when I know that the house is "that" clean! It is a great feeling. Well done!

4:59 pm

*Sending Soodle a grout brush*

4:59 pm

OK. I am off to bed. I feel gross.

4:59 pm

Night Car, hope you feel better.

5:00 pm

I never got washed or dressed today... slobbered around in old duds, cleaning and polishing. I seem to have lost the ability to chlllax... :-(

5:00 pm

((((Car))))

5:00 pm

TY all! {{hugs}} and love!

5:00 pm

<----- Loves Car!

5:01 pm

5:01 pm

5:02 pm

Hi crossy. I have sticky buns in the oven. If you can virtually arrive, you can have crumbled bacon on top of yours.

5:02 pm

5:02 pm

I've just had a bath, so my fellow babblers can remove the clothes-pins from their noses....

5:03 pm

Hello Cross!

5:03 pm

Soodle, nothing like water to wash away the cares of the day.

5:03 pm

5:03 pm

Oh, we know you do your Soodle ablutions before retiring to the Soodle boudoir.

5:04 pm

Water, and some nice smelly stuff in the bath. during my cleaning frenzy. Fresh sheets on the bed as well, so a good nights sleep is assured.

5:05 pm

5:05 pm

Clean sheets and an open window assure me of a good night's sleep.

There are only 4, 4's from that word. And a 5,6,7,8.

6:15 pm

Sorry, from that letter.

6:16 pm

6:17 pm

They start with the five and end in...chewing g**

6:17 pm

Then make it plural

6:18 pm

i need the five

6:19 pm

Add a vowel to the last 4

6:19 pm

You said you had a five, I thought you already had it.

6:19 pm

i thought had it but i recounted

6:24 pm

what i could do with an e

6:25 pm

got the 5 and 6

6:39 pm

there's a past tense of help?

6:40 pm

ho 4/6 is a simple past tense of help, but not common

6:41 pm

That ho4/6 is like help,but change vowel in the middle

6:41 pm

yeah more word helped me with that

6:44 pm

tell me another story minnie

6:46 pm

There is a story of clues in my profile Picklesny. Just click on my icon to see the story I wrote b4 Picklesny

6:47 pm

Hello Babblers

6:48 pm

This grid started out fine. I got the entire bottom row grayed out in no time at all.

6:48 pm

I have slowed down after that.

6:48 pm

Hello wht! How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle.

6:48 pm

You are so clever, Wht.

6:52 pm

maybe some dinner will help

6:53 pm

I just had Vegetable stir-fry for dinner.It was yummy

7:02 pm

Hi all! How's it going?

7:02 pm

Min - great story, as usual.x

7:02 pm

Hi Jacula. I'm here off & on waiting to enter last word

7:04 pm

Thanks Jacula

7:04 pm

Well, I finished earlier, if you need any clues. I came back in to read your clue story. I always enjoy them.

7:05 pm

We look a bit pink, don't we? Well, pic isn't me, it's FMitch.

7:05 pm

Hello all. I've been out a a Lions' club Xmas dinner for singles -- about 125 of us!

7:05 pm

Incidentally, her cremation is happening on 13th December.

7:05 pm

Just realised there's no E in this grid.

7:06 pm

Jilli - I thought you had shingles? Don't give it to the singles!

7:06 pm

Ha ha jac!

7:06 pm

There may be no E but there are still 101 words.

7:06 pm

Hello jillibus! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid.

7:07 pm

Sorry, jilli. Me and my black humour!

7:07 pm

I'm still hoping the shingles will go away quickly.

7:08 pm

Jilli - I hope you caught it in time not to have the post Shingles pain.

7:09 pm

Congratulations Jacula on finishing early! Way to go!

7:11 pm

Thanks Min. It wasn't that early - the grid time said 4.16am, but it was later than that in the UK - more like early afternoon.

7:12 pm

I've got one of those world clock thingies somewhere in my bookmarks, but I'm not really sure how to convert Babble time to UK time. It's 1.13am here in UK now.

7:13 pm

713 pm babble time

7:13 pm

1913

7:13 pm

my real time is the same as babble time

7:15 pm

Hello kje!How are you doing? Welcome to the chat log

7:15 pm

So that's 18 hours' difference.

7:16 pm

Hello kje.

7:16 pm

6 hours, jac... you are the morning of the 5th now, we are the evening of the 4th

7:17 pm

kje - my maths is rubbish. I'm great with words though!:-)

7:17 pm

lol

7:17 pm

your math was ok, you just went the wrong direction!

7:18 pm

Ah!

7:19 pm

My math is rubbish too which is why I play Babble and not Sudoku. Did go on that website to see if the chat log is like Babbleland.They don't seem to chat as much

7:19 pm

Unless it was a time when everyone finished already.

7:19 pm

they are concentrating, minver

7:20 pm

Min - I joined up when it first began, too. But maths logic isn't my strong point. Thing is, and this is not logical, if the grid was done with letters, I could probably do it.

7:22 pm

i am here

7:22 pm

Hello Jen.

7:22 pm

i have 3 screens up so i can't see the chat log!

7:23 pm

I just checked out the chat log again in Sudoku.I see that evanadine and hurshy play Sudoku as well. When I scrolled down to the bottom of the chat log, I saw a post there from 4:30 in the morning.

7:23 pm

Hi JenMO161 How are you doing? Welcome to the grid

7:24 pm

I'm not surprised that Hurshy plays - she generally wants the points value rather than a word clue here. We, or rather our brains, all work differently.

7:24 pm

Min, ty for your story. I got a few clues there.

7:24 pm

I wonder if Sudoku has daily icon themes like Babble.

7:24 pm

yw wht

7:25 pm

But I could use a clue fro the first so6.

7:25 pm

Jen - you can open new windows instead and change the width of each window.

7:25 pm

Not daughter + picnic pest Wht

7:26 pm

yes, that is what i do

7:26 pm

ty Molly

7:26 pm

Hi wht. so6 (1st) = having sound or what Molly said. (Hi Molly, btw.)

7:26 pm

Hey Jac

7:26 pm

they would have to overlap

7:27 pm

Jen - you need a larger monitor!

7:27 pm

Just fixed a mistake in my story. The sn4/5 should be an sn 4/4 word. Hope I didn't confuse anyone before.

7:27 pm

i have a laptop!!

7:27 pm

OH, LOL. Sorry Jen.

7:28 pm

I understood it from the context of the story Min, no worries.

7:28 pm

okay, i have more words and the puzzle on top and lickety under both of them

7:28 pm

And you are neither a sn4 nor a sn5, so there. : )

7:29 pm

and i can see the chat

7:29 pm

I usually babble with three windows open, babble, list and enable. Then I just switch from screen to screen.

7:29 pm

Thanks MollyL!

7:30 pm

Watched a programme on TV earlier about Mark Zuckerberg, founder of Facebook. He's the same age as my son, who is also a computer geek. Why didn't my son invent the hugely profiable Facebook??

7:31 pm

*profitable, I meant.

7:31 pm

I do wish this site would get an 'edit' button!

7:31 pm

i have seen the story on mark zuckerberg, pretty cool

7:33 pm

help with the no6/27 please

7:34 pm

no6, without grease.

like skim milk

7:35 pm

oh, got it

7:35 pm

no6 - skinny!

7:36 pm

n's gone

7:39 pm

clue for the no7, please

7:39 pm

An N word that means the same as the an7

7:40 pm

You assume I have the an7, Molly.

7:41 pm

Oops, digestive relief Wht

7:41 pm

an7, wht, is what you will need if you have indigestion or heartburn.

7:42 pm

I've just been outside to put some stuff into the recycling bin and had to prise the lid open because it was frozen shut. My cousin up in Scotland had snow yesterday. It looks like we down in England are nt far behind.

7:42 pm

ty Molly and jac

7:42 pm

got both

7:42 pm

y/w wht.

7:43 pm

Hush and shhhhh. I do not want to hear mention of the S word.

7:44 pm

Molly - I know what you mean! I don't either.

7:44 pm

me neither, molly!

7:44 pm

good evening everybody. How are you all tonight?

7:45 pm

Hi Nef

7:45 pm

hi nef!

7:45 pm

better hurry! i got 27 left!!

7:45 pm

Hello Nef. I'm recovering from a virus that has gripped me for about 3 weeks, the grid's all done and I'm here to chat and clue. How are you?

7:46 pm

I have NBT so far; looking for the stats for the 8 please for NBS

7:46 pm

Good Lord Jac, glad you are on the mend.

7:46 pm

pa8/55 Nef, it's a weird word

7:46 pm

pa 7/40 and pa 8/55 combo

7:47 pm

yep, it's a weird word alright

7:47 pm

Hello Nef! How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle.

7:47 pm

It's not a weird word if you are a poet and know how Malay verse is formed. LOL

7:48 pm

oh no! the coldest air of the season is coming!

7:48 pm

Think phantom of the opera and then change the way you say the ghost word a bit. Try saying it in s-l-o-w motion, for instance. LOL.

7:48 pm

Poet, yes. Familiar with Malaysian verse formation...um...no.

7:49 pm

I'm exhausted and stressed out. ALL of Auny's stuff was brought here from storage on Thursday and our son and dtr were supposed to help sort through it this weekend. Of course, DIL became a drama queen and our son had to deal with her all w/e and we had our grandson (who has reverted to needing diapers again. Sorry for venting; I'm done now

7:49 pm

Aw (((Nef))) sorry it was such an emotional upheaval.

7:49 pm

Molly - Poor Haz must have thought she'd got a heavy breather perv on the line when I range her the other day. She most most concerned about my breathing, as was my mother. The threat of pleurisy seems to have passed now.

7:50 pm

Fireworks

7:50 pm

Thanks.

7:50 pm

Yay Wht!!!

7:50 pm

Congratulations wht on your fireworks! Good for you

7:50 pm

Jacula, glad you are on the mend!

7:51 pm

Nef, deep breaths and a good night's sleep. Tomorrow is another day, as they say.

7:51 pm

Nef - sorting stuff out is a nightmare! My MIL has been chucking stuff out since she was about 55 and she's 76 now, 'so people don't have so much stuff to sort out when I go'. The old lady over the road from me (in her mid 70s and only months younger than my vibrant and vital Mum) lives in a virtually empty house for the very same reason.

7:52 pm

Congrats wht.

7:52 pm

Nef, that is a lot to deal with.

7:52 pm

thanks, Molly; and yes; tomorrow is another day (and it will be much better since we can now see walls and part of the floor in the front room

7:53 pm

Haven't played this game regularly for a very long time, but at least tonight, I am doing the firework dance.

7:53 pm

Nef, poor grand-boy. Sending some light his way. He has a lot to deal with, for a little guy.

7:53 pm

wtg pbr

7:53 pm

My Mum says she's making sure to leave me plenty to sort out. I know where she's 'coming from'. x

7:53 pm

My Mum says she's making sure to leave me plenty to sort out. I know where she's 'coming from'. x

7:53 pm

YAY, wht!!! WTG!!!

7:53 pm

Yay, pbr!!! WTG!!!

7:53 pm

Oops! Didn't mean to say that twice. Sorry!

7:54 pm

I am done! I have fireworks!mu6/24 was my last word

7:54 pm

Thx. I have missed you all. Good knowing the game is still going

7:54 pm

Hello pbr! How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle.

7:54 pm

wtg min.

7:54 pm

Well done pbr.

7:54 pm

Congratulations pbr on your fireworks! Hooray for U!

7:55 pm

YAY, MIM!!! WTG!!!

7:55 pm

I am doing well. Between work, which requires travel, I just haven't had time for this..plus I have been playing pogo games.

7:55 pm

yeah, min

7:56 pm

We've welcomed quite a few old Babblers back in the past few days, some who haven't played for 4 years. Wonder what's drawing us all back in again?

7:57 pm

I go through withdrawal if I don't babble for two days

7:58 pm

It only needs Anj and Lola to appear again and I'm going to think magic is at work.

7:58 pm

and FranMag

7:59 pm

Min - I Babble on paper if I can't Babble on line. But that's only because Beloved has a phone that can pick the grid up. It would cost too much to text the words in or chat.

Hi. Fran is well she is busy with kids and such

I also believe that some of the lurkers have come out to wish love to FM's family

8:00 pm

Hello herinfernallady!How are you? Welcome to puzzle

8:00 pm

Franmag is around on FB. Actually, I haven't told her about Fiona's death. Hi Herin. Have you told her?

No I ahven't

8:01 pm

The only family FM had left was her stepfather, herin. Like me, she was an only child.

8:01 pm

Herin - should I let her know then?

I just did

8:02 pm

howdy everyone back for a few more

8:02 pm

Oh, okay Herin. Thanks for doing that.

8:02 pm

Hello crossy.

Hi Crossie

8:03 pm

Hello crosshair! How are you doing? Welcome to grid.

Hi Mini too

8:03 pm

Hi crossy

8:03 pm

ty ladies for the fine welcome:))

8:03 pm

and wht of course

I just got in Hi Wht

8:04 pm

crosshair,do you know the "free" word program that can be downloaded from the internet. Used to have it

8:04 pm

openoffice.org

8:05 pm

Oh yeah,that's it!I knew I would know it once I saw it

8:05 pm

Thanks!

8:05 pm

it is great:)

8:06 pm

Yes, I used to have it. The only problem is if I send it as an attachment to somebody who does not have it, they can't open it. But I don't want to pay for "Word"

My local store has a new product. Toblerone Triangles

8:07 pm

windows office and open office should be able to talk to each other

8:07 pm

You can always save the document as a Word document and send that, Min.

8:07 pm

Toblerone Triangles is not new here.I LOVE Toblerone

8:07 pm

I do that all the time

8:07 pm

I'm a bit old-fashioned, I prefer Office.

8:08 pm

Min - not new here either.

Sorry not Toblerone but Triangles. Like Crossaints with toblerone

8:08 pm

I do not have Word which is why I need Open Office.

8:08 pm

open office rocks

8:08 pm

Herin - do you have Quality Street chocs in Aus? The do the big purple one and the big green triangle now.

8:09 pm

it does not blind you with teenie tiny adjustments

Yes we do but I am not sure if the Supermarkets do and not Sweet stores

8:09 pm

That sounds delicious! Hope it comes here to the U.S.

8:09 pm

I somehow lost Miscrosoft Publisher when my son built me a new pc.:(

8:09 pm

Min, Open Office lets you save documents in word format. When you save the document, there is a drop down for file type. Just select word document.

Min you could do it yourself with a croissant

8:10 pm

i thought there was something like that why ty

8:10 pm

Min - yes, everyone's two favourites in giant form. YUM.

Jac I have lost the disks for the full set of Office that I bought

8:10 pm

Yeah, but then I would have to do it and I am LAZY!!!

8:11 pm

wht, can I then open the document in word format if I don't have word? I'll have to download office and try

8:11 pm

There are actually a couple of .doc formats. I use the one that has the longest list of compatabilities.

8:12 pm

Open Office will read word documents as well. There may be some problems rendering if there are complicated things in the document, but for most normal things it works just fine.

8:13 pm

Unfortunate we are, as that short man with the big ears, whose name I can't remember right now, would say, Herin. Starwars chap, I think? Keep being told his name, since when the hairs in Beloved's ears grow overlong, I want to tell him he looks like him. Damn this dratted menopause thing for zapping half my memory!

yoda

8:14 pm

Thank you, Herin! That's the chap!

Or Jar Jar (but he makes me want to punch him in the head)

8:14 pm

lol min,let everyone else stuck with word worry about being able to open it,as long as i can send it in word format,and i know they can open it,i will avoid word and windows office and the rest of it

8:14 pm

Jar Jar is my stepdaughter, Herin.

OMG there is a guy on the view with the most sexist Barry White voice ever

8:14 pm

sexist or sexiest?

What ever - Sexiest. Sorry Have only had One coffee and had to deal with the store of hell today

8:15 pm

baby..got to have more of your love baby..crossy likes barry

We have been watching Sons of Anarchy and Ron Perlmen is dead set sexy voice.

8:18 pm

crossy - she must mean sexist. Barry White may not have had the most attrative body in the world but he sure as hell had the sexist voice. It was so deep it vibrated through the seat he was sharing and turned women on. It wasn't much different through the 'woofers' on good hifi speakers either!

8:18 pm

What a ballsup I made of that last post! Sexiest, attractive. GRR

Sorry I just haven't had enough coffee today

8:19 pm

Crossy - stop singing that! My love needs his sleep since he's found some work from now until Christmas.

8:19 pm

pa 7 pls

8:20 pm

Hi big red - pa7 - a verse form consisting of a series of quatrains in which the second and fourth lines of each verse are repeated as the first and third lines of the next.

Jac totally random but what is the name of that English Soccer guy Vincient someone

8:21 pm

Or try cooking pot + what sounds like a grave.

8:21 pm

Vinnie Smith?

Vinnie Jones?

8:21 pm

thanks jac

8:22 pm

any of you ladies remember teddy pentagrast(sp)?

8:22 pm

Vinnie Jones - yes, I knew it was a common surname.

8:22 pm

Crossy - the name rings a bell. What are you about to tell us?

8:23 pm

bigred - y/w

8:23 pm

he was another low voice singer like barry white,used to make the ladies lat down at his feet

I am trying desperatly to remember a film that would have to be prior to 2003 soccer movie lots of violence about hooligans. I think it was called ID BUT nothing fits

8:23 pm

lay

Chickens Lay :P

8:24 pm

lol

8:24 pm

Herin - The Longest Yard?

No English not USA

It isn't Green Street as that is too late

8:26 pm

Gone In 60 Seconds? Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels?

No I have it. It is I.D. Stupid IMDB is being stupid

8:27 pm

Mean Machine? X Men: The Last Stand?

But Thanks for helping.

I ahve it I haven't been able to find it

8:29 pm

ot my sort of film, Herin. More Beloved's.

8:29 pm

*Not

8:29 pm

8:32 pm

You need basic clues I give them. I am feeling on the edge of licking window special today

8:32 pm

Hello uusue2! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid

8:32 pm

sue, you are working late Sunday night? YUK!!!

8:32 pm

Crossy - just for you... pa7/40 is an anagram of 'manpout'.:-)

8:33 pm

you were always my favorite herin;)

8:33 pm

LOL! That's a great clue Jacula!

8:34 pm

Thanks Min.:-)

Hi Sue

8:34 pm

Bacon man is cuddling up to that Herin woman now. LOL

8:34 pm

He's so fickle!

pfft

8:36 pm

He wouldn't dare attend a Bable meet because he'd get thumped by so many women for chog unfaithfullness and thumped by his wife as well! LOL

8:36 pm

Herin - did you just pass wind?

No Ewww

8:37 pm

I stopped by my office to print out a few things so I don't have to get in quite so early tomorrow morning :-)

8:37 pm

Sue - good idea!

8:38 pm

YAY, Jen!! WTG!!!

8:38 pm

Jen - well done.

8:38 pm

Congratulations JenMO16 on fireworks! Good for you

8:39 pm

geez....last two words were what you watch on TV on Sat.

8:39 pm

yay, jen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yah Jen

8:39 pm

tbh crossy is a one woman man..do not have the strength for another lol

Or the patience?

8:40 pm

Crossy - LOL. At least you're honest! Just like my man.

8:40 pm

this jen is a NO man woman :0)

8:40 pm

Herin - that, too!

8:40 pm

Jen - by choice or do you want one?

O dear I just realised it is that time of year again

8:41 pm

well jacula..after amost 19 years of wedded bliss and 2 year dating all i know about ladies is that it has something to do with chocolate...:)

8:41 pm

What time of year, Herin? Christmas? I haven't acknowledged the fact fully yet.

8:41 pm

by choice Jac

8:42 pm

don't need one messing up my life!

8:42 pm

anyway I have my printouts now and am heading home, see you all later!

8:42 pm

crossy - you know full well it's far more than that, but you can sometimes offer chocolate at arms length to save yourself.

YEs that and himselfs office function is soon - Which means him getting home at 7am and possibly ringing me at 6am to talk ot me and Yell PIGEON

8:42 pm

see you later, sue

8:42 pm

'Bye sue. See you again.

8:42 pm

and I know what you mean, jen, have a great man in my life now, finally, but am dealing with some pretty awful messes left by the earlier ones

8:42 pm

Goodbye uusue2! I will see you tomorrow in the chog.

Bye Sue

8:43 pm

Herin - why is he likely to yell 'PIGEON'?

8:44 pm

sue,my wife came to me from a horrible past relationship and i am bessed that she truest me and loved me enough to let herself relax and love without fear again

Jac last year he was drunk and on the phone to me and a pigeon walked passed him so he felt the need to yell PIGEON down the phone at me

8:44 pm

blessed

8:44 pm

trust

8:45 pm

Crossy - I know your story.

Jen I could suggest the fairer of the species instead of stinky men folk but sometimes they are just as bitchy

8:45 pm

nice true story, crosshair! Good salve for going through divorce now for me..

8:45 pm

hi all

8:45 pm

yep

8:45 pm

lol,my wife say every woman in addition to a husband need a good house wife

8:45 pm

Hello Babs1!How are you doing?Welcome to the puzzle

O Please excuse me whilst I beat my head on the desk because of the sexist bullshit on the view

8:46 pm

Hi jmcnrick! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid.

8:46 pm

hi jmc and Babs

8:46 pm

well, i am going to move on...i will see everyone tomorrow!

8:46 pm

i am reasonably happy

8:46 pm

i am sorry babs,this rough time will pass you you will be better for it on the other side

8:46 pm

thanks, minver! doing okay..just working on courage to complete divorce and take on all the stuff left behind to deal with...

8:46 pm

bye jen

8:47 pm

clues for i?

Bab's life hands you lemons demand vodka

8:47 pm

Jen - women are much more bitchy - they know exactly what hurts. Just take some time to get in touch with yourself. I took 10 years, with the odd foray into you know what where I didn't give a sh*t. When the right one comes, those old romance books are right, things spark and crackle and you just KNOW.

8:47 pm

id 4/5 word is American Id** or singer Billy Id** Babs1.

8:47 pm

good thing about hitting your head on a desk herin,is that it feels so good when ity stop..plus it burns 90 calries per hour!!

8:48 pm

id 4,5 image of a god

8:48 pm

i had 13 marriage proposals but only one hubby

8:48 pm

it took a long time and i was lucky i didn't marry sooner

Cross apparently little girls like dolls boys like cars.

8:48 pm

hi wht

8:48 pm

Hi jmc, you fox.

8:48 pm

crossy - please stop telling Herin it's a good idea to bash her brains in on a piece of furniture.

8:48 pm

hard to imagine now wht haha but i was a vixen for sure

8:48 pm

really,my sister used to do motocross dirt bikes

8:49 pm

but whatever works for you herin;)

8:49 pm

i always liked cars myself

My friend is sick to death of people saying ''O Rilley what a lovely little boy you have'' No she is a girl and wears boy's clothes because she is just over a year old and gets into everything

8:49 pm

9:09 pm

Herin - I know what you mean because my kids keep saying that to me, even after my daughter tried to kill herself by starving herself to death for years.

9:16 pm

I have been in and out of AlAnon several times, Jac. Lots of alcoholics in my (and DH's) families. Alcoholism is an illness and I've seen the severe effects of the disease when I worked in ICU.

9:17 pm

I still have to zap back from the dad going bonkers and then dying, the daughter trying to starver herself to death, oh and the sudden divorce that happened just into my Dad losing his mind.

9:17 pm

rough

I have been told my birth father was a drinker and gambler hence the reason for me never to gamble or get into a habit of drinking

9:20 pm

good night all

9:20 pm

Don't worry! I'm a survivor. I won't be going down Fm's route, though I tried to for a time. I once thought that I did not want to be around any more and thought the best way to go was to slowly kill myself whilst I waited for my children to grow up. Howwever, before they'd fully grown up, they caught onto what i was doing and told me NO WAY! They still watch me closely now.

9:20 pm

so have I said that I'm going to bed? I think I have to say it at least 4 times before I actually do it...
