Hi everyone - trying to sneak in some babbling between jobs
ty jilli, and forgive me, had RN last year, am ignoring him this year
jilli, I'm a lifelong Dem but may jump ship to vote for Huntsman in the primary. I'm of the mind that the Republican Party needs to be changed more than it needs to be fought.
change is good melon
Huntsman is a great guy. I might caucus for him here in February
Huntsman has some weird ideas too
oh he does yes. but he's the best the GOPs have to offer.
which, sadly, isn't saying much

darn, tired but can't sleep, back to find a few more words
hey flosey, sorry you can't sleep...but the bonus is i get to see you.
ah, thanks granny, nice to see you too
I'll take 1/2 a pill and wait for it to work
* groan * came home early from work...sinus pain is unbelievable...and i usually have a high pain tolerance level.
oh granny, sinus pain is very nasty
have already taken tynelol( or it's equivalent) and nurofen...have resorted to endone.
not familiar with those granny, but may be called something else here
endone...synthetic morphine
wow, that is pretty heavy stuff
I take Zopiclone for sleep, think it's probably pretty mild
flosey, let's you know how bad this is...don't usually go for the endone....but felt like my face was full of concrete....guess my doctor is in for a visit
ah, you poor dear, that is really awful
I use to have sinus problem but cut out milk - except for tea and poridge, and cream in coffee
lol, talk about glow in the dark....feel like my face is on fire
noted, flosey...i don't have much in the way of dairy products....opt for calcium tabs instead
ah good substitute
omg...can't believe i forgot to p[lural ci5....must be tireder than i thought....or pehaps it's the analgesia...hmmmm
lol, blame the analgesia.xx
hey diz
hi diz
hi all!!
actually, I think I'm hungry too, must have something
* giggle* my mum always said i was half aboriginal...as soon as i ate something, i fell asleep.
*blinks* well i'll be...on both sides...just greyed the r tile
good for you granny
still have 22 to go, so not doing so well tonight
I have 57 to find
sa6/27...7/40...strange word
apparently it is a sport, like boxing, but using feet as well as hands
Granny, sorry for interupting.....I have the same sinus thing and it is HELL. There are days when I can barely get out of bed.....but Hon, if you haven't taken morphine before, please be very careful.....don't try to force y ourself to do anything. Please just rest and drink as much as you can. I will pray (send) energy to you. Just be open for the energy. I'm going to wind down now, it's almost 4:30AM here. Bless you!
And bless all of the Babblers.
thanx peach....nearly bed-time here, really appreciate your kind words
good morning everybody
very cold here, fingers too stiff for correct typing
hey ruby, how are you, hun?
grannyrose, does steam or hot compresses help your sinuses?
hi ruby
{{flosey}}
vase
nave
good morning, Babble friends
sorry, bad ruby!
hi sprite
{{sprite}} (those were your "welcome" words)
not really, ruby...think i need some antibiotics...haven't had any for a long time....about 6 months
lol ruby
whazzup rose? Ill?
((((spritey))))) so lovely to see you, hun
Hello girls! Lovely to see you Spritely
{{lynxx}}
sinus probs, again( exasperated sigh)
and vi4 versa, rose :) And you, lyn :) Great company here!
and hellooooo lyn
Everytime I see you Rose it is something else! silly girl!
what can i say???not getting any younger here...maybe after the cruise....really need some down time
poor rose :( Yes, if it has been a long time ago, and your doctor advices it, take the antibiotics. Better to have no troubles in the sinuses, it eats away your energy even faster than antibiotics.
Actually Rose reminds me to ring my brother. Like Rose he is full of health issues - must be something in the water up there. BBS
but he has a sister like you, lyn... he is a lucky man
lyn, sometimes i wonder why go on? but then i look at the grandkiddies, and see why
don't say that granny! we need you in here, too!!!!
*grabs rose lovingly but firmly by the shoulders* And you go on, because of us... and because life is full of blessings if only we keep looking for them... and because I LUV you.
and also important reason: because I don't give up either. Hah!
thanx ruby.... with all my health issues, i get quite depressed, i do try to look positively at life. i think i need a really big cleansing cry.
granny, you're 20 years younger than I am, so stay with us
{{{granny}}}
{{{{{{{{rose}}}}}}}} Here, you. Cry yourself out. I'll join you. And after that, we make ourselves a huge pot of tea and get noisily drunk.
sprite, do you put rum in your tea? (said sternly)
hmmm, what are you putting in that tea sprite?
snap, flosey
thanx you all....i need supportive friends like you....since my beautiful friend died 2 1/2 years ago, just feel like it's all too much
whatever does the trick :D
great minds ruby
I really can understand that, rose. Having health issues is maddening and exhausting. To be upbeat you need energy, but you don't have much. And missing a really good friend is extra tough in this situation. Though it is not the same, we are here for you and we love you to bits. Try not to ask too much of yourself, ok? Be gentle with you.
thanx spritey, your care comes through, loud and clear...as it does from all of you
ok, back to sleep, goodnight again
that is wonderful. And if you ever want to 'talk', my (new) email is in my profile. *holds arms wide permanently to give you a virtual hug*
sleep well, flosey
sweet dreams flosey
half, nbt and nbt
wow, that is impressive, that leaves nbt at all
PLUS you wonderful babble friends! what a nice way to kick-start this AM
nbs*
*giggles*
lol, my son had a nice start of the day too... He doesn't have school today, tomorrow two exams. I told him get up in time and use your day. He slept in. And... at 10 am his girlfriend showed up and kicked him out of bed. Gotta love that girl.
cute!
it is funny. I stopped kicking his butt for stuff like this, because he has got to take responsibility himself. But she kicks his butt even harder :)
see you later
bye ruby, have a grand day
thanx spritey, your care comes through, loud and clear...as it does from all of you
am glad of that, rose. *hugs*
oh, dear, seems i have frozen the chog
it happens sometimes. A force-refresh should work (control + F5 on a windows)
fireworks here...but no chog :(....see you all at the flip
gratz dear rose, take care of you.
bye Rose, take care, sweet dreams
how was your brother doing, lyn?
OKish...had op last week and wound is infected but seems happier now painkillers and anti-biot's have kicked in. Talking about going back to work next week - idiot! I'll see him tomorrow
omg he should take some more time, if possible. Infected wounds need rest. Glad you will see him tomorrow.
.... isn't cavia an english word?
change the last vwl to get a guinea pig - otherwise not sure
yeah I meant the guinea pig. Guess it is just spelled differently then. Thank you lyn.
He does have a good wife - unfortunately like the rest of our family he is pretty pigheaded
pigheaded is usually a good thing... but not with illnesses that need rest ;(
the silly boy has not been to a doctor for about 40 years - kid you not. In the last 4 months: heart attack and 2 stents put in, diagnosed Type 2 Diabetic, and had gall bladder taken out last week (with hernia repair as well). And he still persists in being silly and stubborn.
oh dear... that is not good. Lack of maintenance, I'd say :( Hope you can all make him see he needs to take care of himself better.
what a cute phrase - I shall use it on him tomorrow!
:)
and how have you been Sprite?
not too bad. Battled a bit with insomnia, but am trying to break the cycle with sleeping pills. Three nights of great sleep! And as of tonight, I will try without pills again.
good luck with that - none of us operate too well without enough sleep
no, at first it was ok, but over time things started to degenerate, grin.
hi all
hi carlee
hi sprite
( can you get catmint/nip tea???)
hi Carlee
hi there lynxxx
not sure, actually. Tea made of catmint or catnip? Let me see.
it has the opposite effect on humans than it does for cats...makes you sleeeeeeeeeepppppppyyyyyyyyyy
I think I can get catnip, yes. And to make a tea of it should be simple. Great idea! Thanks.
add a bit of reg mint if you are making it from scratch... steep it in a closed vessel be it the mug ( should only need 1 mug/ cup before bed) so put a saucer over the top to keep the essential oils inside the tea
great, am copying it now.
:)
i woke up too early to go to school..couldnt sleep anymore...first stop add/drop to change my schedule...again
nepata cataria is the official name, I see. There are many kinds. This seems to be the one I need.
lots of changes?
no..just one... and its not a huge deal but i want to get it done
yeah, always nice to have it done
then over to the book store...
and stand in line there
yeah, I remembered we7.48. It always amazes me when I remember odd ones
i just need that middle row a for nbt
middle column*
at4.4 I think
thanks lynxxx
and that is nbt/nbs in 25...
hmz... now I need to remember as well...
gratz carlee
ah got it, thanks
the stones you throw for gambling, the ones with the dots on it... I thought di4 was already a plural?
You are correct - I guess another instance where correct English isn't used
thanks! Will look it up, but it is good to know I am not totally mistaken.
my 147th word - Sprites as4.4
lol :) Yeah I actually spotted it this time too!
ok breakfast of students,,,coffee and choc chip cheesecake
The di5/14 isn't so much a plural as a verb form, as in to di4/6 with death.
di4 is plural. The addition of the s refers to finely chopping something.
sounds good to me, carlee
morning molls
and my alarm just went off so time to get ready for school
ah! Thank you Haz! I was googling and found pretty angry people asking why other clung to the 'archaic' singular form etc... Funny that answering 'because they are correct' doesn't make them feel any mellower.
thanks Molly too. And hi to you both. Bye carlee.
otherS*
Good morning/evening all.
fireflies :)
Congratulations, sprite.
Good morning Haz
Congrats Sprite!
Hello, lynxxx.
how are you doing, Haz? Were the holidays ok?
I'm doing okay - was kept busy during the holidays so that was good.
glad to hear it. And glad to see you. I have to be off though... bye all, thank for the company and help.
Have a good day, sprite.
my connection is dropping in and out here - I'll come back later. Bye for now
my connection is dropping in and out here - I'll come back later. Bye for now

And hello coolgirl, Molly, gramma...
*Waves at the sad donkey*
Thanks for noticing me, Molly. Ho hum. LOL!!!!
Holy guacamole! I got all the i's already!
Vowels are evil, best to be rid of them early on.
<---- not a vowel fan or an N fan.
Car! Wish me luck, i am just out the door....went with black skirt and argyle sweater....slightly cliche, but hopefully passable
Go for it, sistah! Call me when you are done!
*Wishing Trif luck*
Car, it's going to be one hell of a football game next Sunday.
Woooo! Go Pats!
thanks girls. Oh,.how i love my babble-ettes!
Go already!
Tebow has been touched by the football Gods. I'm a happy Broncos fan today.
Stats for the second O? I have the water creature ot 5/10
oi5/12
Ty Molly! Got it!
Mornin' all. That oi 5 is a weird word.
Good morning Bichon!
It's the way the Irish say "thought" Bich. : )
Well, that explains it <ggg>
Do you know Gaelic Molly?
car, I dislike N words also. So of course, I'm stuck on the very 1st one.
I have na 4/7 and the plural na 5/16....bad types of the old world....I think the na 4 of hearts may have stolen some tarts at one point.
My monkeys got it
I also have what a bird lives in and the p/t of that. NE 4/4
ne birds home and a common ending
Not much Bich, a few words and phrases.

Morning Mom. I hate it when 1/3 of the words are only spread over three starting letters. I get bored with that.
I can't imagine you getting bored, Molly
Ren, your Evanout friend was here briefly. Only wanting to chat with Stid and when she realized Stid was not here, left.
I can't imagine you getting bored, Molly
Hmm, twice, must be really hard to imagine. : )
I am on the lap top and it is acting up. It surely isn't operator error
Oh I missed Nutty

Morning Babblers!
thank you so much.
good morning nono
good morning :) *splash*
hi, nono and nan!
good morning nan
You get one hat and one bottle of whiskey. go to bed put hat on end of bed drink whiskey till you see 2 hats. By then you should have the cold chased off
hi Nan
Good on ye Mom! I am still hope to get to half way before picking up the kids. Only at 80, so hoping for inspiration very soon!!
Hi Eveeryone I missed
hey there no no and nan
I am loving that Irish remedy, never heard of it before, but it sounds REALLY effective!
sounds good, herin! probably not a good idea on a day I need to work, though :-(
:-) sounds like a plan, Herin
For work I recomend staying at home.
I would love to, herin, but must meet with a colleague this afternoon - will probably only go in for that meeting, though
Cold and flu tablets make me silly
I can work silly.
Whiskey makes ME silly!
That too but then if I drink it I wont care
Gotta go for a while, cheerio all for now!
bye, focal!
bye bye Focal
later Focal
Slán
Sue, any chance you can reschedule that meeting? Staying home would do you some good and your colleague would probably appreciate not catching whatever you have.
If you gave the colleague the whiskey as a preventative measure Sue it could make the meeting better
probably not, molly, he and I are teaching a course together that starts next week; he's busy Tuesday and Thursday and I'm busy the rest of the week
je7 48 - clue?
nevermind, found it LOL
he and I work well together, so we should be able to make it short and productive

This font does make a very weird looking ampersand.
nbt, nbs and almost half way -- just coming up or air and a cup of tea - finding it friendly so far!
I love it when people give human attributes to the grids. : )
the grids come alive and take over our lives - dr god has trained the grids to take over our brains
Well I am going to go and stare at the ceiling and pretend to sleep
Morning, all - just took son to the first day of his first real job - fingers crossed he may actually be on his way to a life, haha! :)

Lickety's list is there.
Marvy Monday to all!

Morning, Aloy
Hello, Aloy.
I guess I should start my day. Why, I don't know, just seems like the right thing to do
((Hugs)) to all of you.
Hi Aloy
have a good one Mom
Enjoy your day, Mom.
bye, Mom.. make it a fabulous day
so long, Mom! :)
bye bye Nono, Haz, Aloy and rbud. I will make it a terrific day.
hubby and I were up before dawn, watched the sun rise over the harbor and chase the full moon away.. we were out there volunteering for a water-monitoring project for the EPA.. hard to get out of bed on a very cool morning, but so worth it..
na5 10?
plural Hawthornes' nickname, Sugr
na5/10 - na plus first letters of the Old and New that form the Bible.
oops meant na5 16, have one, can't find the other
nasit
lol
pl the na4.7
na5/16 - na plus Adam's mate except with a different last vowel.
have that one
there's two na5 16s right?
yes the other is a pl
Yes, one's a normal plural, the other, the one I've clued, is a latin plural for a birthmark.
sorry, wasn't on the list ..
there -- had to reboot
you need na + the attorney presented the ***dence at the trial
But you've got the list now, cybernan?
brb.. need a java refill
Vini vidi vici, must brush up on my Latin
yay, have all 8's now, whew!
You can re7/52, rbud.
yup! :D
too bad, cesna is proper
have the list now, haz, ty -- bogged down looking for the an 8 at the moment
Sing out if you want a clue.
yes -- I think I will, please, on that one
Good morning all
Okay, an8 - begin with a South American mountain range and finish with the mixed up letter of gent's neckwear.
hi Habes
Good morning, Habes.
lovely, Haz.. ty
You're selcome, Aloy.
*welcome.
ty haz -- great clue
Glad it worked for you, cybernan.
sa6.27 was a newbie to me
And to me. I must look it up.
sport, like boxing, but feet also used
It's probably not what I would have guessed!
never would have guessed
ty, Aloy. (and for the pl, too)
lol.. same thought
yw, rbud.. amazing what you learn in Babble!
We'll know to say no if someone invites us to sa6/27.
definitely, Haz!
so close to the word for drool.. but no relation
hubby is up -- time to start breakfast -- bbl
ttfn, nan
Bye, cybernan.
Haz.. will you be getting another pup?
Yes, I plan to get one probably April/May time. I'll be busy with doing things for our local Speech and Drama festival in February/March and it would fit better to wait until then.
ah.. I am envious.. I miss having a dog so very much.
another spaniel?
Yes, I'm pretty sure it will be.
Friends and family are keen as well, they miss getting a canine welcome.
oh yes.. makes a diff
The greatest thing was the two rescue Bichons we got a year ago Marco and Polo
<---currently a bit worried about our little mutt, she's getting up there, and is getting very blind, sad to see her unsure of herself while getting around.
glad that is working out well for you, bichon
aw, sorry rbud
plus she barks a lot more when she hears the door now, making up for not seeing who it is, we think.
Our Biscuit lost his hearing first.
she spent 10 minutes barking at a full black trash bag in the driveway the other day, sure it was some creature sneaking up, lol!
I also miss having ears and nose on guard at night
.. and laughing at his antics
I love it that they start sleeping around our feet and end up around our necks
lol, bichon.. pillow hogs!
sometimes I wonder who owns whom
they know !
one time we got a puppy in April, named her April.. it fit her perfectly
so, va5.18 is a kind of orchid.. I knew that
In awe of Aloy.
hubby likes orchids
but I had forgotten the word, lol
Ah! You have an advantage.
hmmm, finished my N's with an ne5 I don't think I've seen before, same as the de5, a believer in God
Good morning, lads and lasses.
so, Haz.. will you get a male or female pup?
Hi Judi
Hello, Judi.
hi, Judi! :)
have never in my life heard the throat or gullet or esophagus referred to as the we7.48..
Afraid to ask... What happened to your dog, Haz?
where have I been?
Judi, we had to have Spangle put to sleep towards the end of November. She had developed kidney failure, unfortunately.
is that what it is, Aloy? I didn't look! how odd.
Aloy, apparently you live under the rock right next door to mine.
oh Haz I am so very sorry to hear that!
lol, ok.. rock dwellers we be
Oh. So sad. Life without "the glittery one" must be very difficult. We lost our 10 year old cat to the same thing back in April.
It's certainly different, that's for sure.
well, this has been a fun grid.. must get on with Monday.. take care all, see you next time..
See you, Aloy.
bye, Aloy, have a good day! :)
bye Aloy, take care
Okay, I must go and collect my car from the garage after its service. Let's hope they don't try to tell me anything technical. If it goes, that's all I want.
later, Haz! :)
Toodle-oo all.
bye Haz, nice seeing you again
Toodles, Haz.
morning...does any one have a list?

bb later- ty for the clues all!
Well there is one je7 and one made up je7. I'm not accepting the past tense of that word.
really molly? all the straight up bizarre babblets and THAT's the word you have a problem with? lol
Never said it's the only one I have a problem with
having listed, I now have a problem with several, myself, among them di 6/24, never heard of it, meanwhile the same word only starting with "die" isn't legit, sigh...
perhaps it's two words? didn't think so
what would you propose your di7 means?
the di6 is far more plausible to me as a real word
ah, yes, I see it is two words, but I know I've seen it as one on ebay and other places.
hyphenated at least
certainly a lot of google entries have it as one word, lol
can u give me a clue for it please
ah yes, the general public. great purveyors of proper english, lol
di6 - di + people in a play
It's a judge in ancient Greece
too true, marpocky
thanks
sorry for disappearance, must get going. bbl, hagd everyone
fireworks, any clues needed before I leave?
later, lbd, have a good one! :)
bye lbd, hagd yourself
congrats, flosey!

only a few A's and C's left here, should be a cruise. :)
ok, am off to think of breakfast, back at flip

later, then, flosey - need to think of brekkie here, too, hmmm...
Ah, I see Flosey is all into the Il Divo boys, like one of my friends.
fireworks, yay - and now for brunch!
any clue for the de6/24 after the dead person?
the dead person?
Hi everyone. Back for a few words before lunch
the de8 is another name for a dead person
there's to remove cold things from your windshield
bichon...there is one in between
okay, got the corpse one. TY
haven't listed yet Ouw, sorry
it is the last one I need
which d is it from?
not sure
maybe I should list
it is between the corpse and the windshield cleaning
sounds funny
I dont usually clean my windshield with a corpse
Okay, it's trickery, a ruse
Thats lucky they can put you in prison for that
got it thanks
Are you looking for a de that means to trick people?
Sorry, too late
anyone need a clue before I leave?
*Resumes Scrabble game*
how about we7?

Good Morning EWverybody. How are you all today? I'm liking this grid so far....
Hi Nef
There IS someone here after all! :-) How are you today, Molly?
(I'd wandered off to brush the dog and cat; now it appears Molly has wandered off too.
i put stevia in my tea
I'm bouncing back and forth between a few things.
hi hurshy and Molly. I'm bouncing too; my email and several other passwords have been locked for a while; so I'm getting computer fully up to speed now
except that out connection is slow and it seems to be the server
I have de8 and te8 what am I missing.Hi all
re8 x 2
ty hurshy will look
and an8
ty Nef, wil look for that one too
for O i have a sea mammal, anyone have the other one?
found one re8 ty hursh
that is the one I have hursh
me too, I've tried several others but they just won't go
oh well just thought i'd ask :)
oi 5/12
just got it (by mistake; thank you monkeys!)
my monkeys are taking a break
i think mine are too. bad monkeys
aha there it is
ty nef
I don't see it :(
has it been in grids before?
Sounds like an Irish person having a light bulb moment
I was trying to type in a thought and mis-spelled it
lol
lOL!
got it, thanks
bbl
as I said, it was my monkeys who found it; and Molly, I liked your clue (I couldn't think of one myself)
Hi kids.
hi sc
How are you feeling, H?
Lunchtime is over
medium. i made it through half a day of work.
Hi Bichon
Good afternoon/evening all. I'm glad you're making some progress, hurshy.
thank you haz!
I've been following the bulletins.
Glad to hear you're a bit better Hurshy
Was the issue more fatigue or pain, Hurshy?
Hi Haz
fatigue
but i got an awful lot done in 4 hours!
Hello, Scrabbler.
peri said de... nef said an...
Talking about eights?
yes
pondering those which i have not got
hi Scrabs and bichon and Haz. How are you all today? (Just wandered back in again; I may get nothing done today becauseI'm playing on the computer and trying to set things up again
And did no-one mention te8 or do you already have it?
i have it
Hello, Nef.
an8/45 - if Hans Christian were online, here's where he might be found.
ty haz!
You're welcome.
what's the matter, hurshy? are you not well? (do I already know?
i had my tonsils out
OH! I knew that! I just forgot it! (I have aa leaky brain today; all my passwords need resetting too)
:)
Cute clue Haz. *Now singing soundtrack from the movie "Hans Christian Anderson" *
how's the eating going?
today is my first day officially not on a soft food diet. i had some crusty-ish bread, no probs.
Freat news! Glad it went well! (and that's quite the test too!)
that was Great news; I'd first put it in the wrong box and didn't see the typo
i figured it out :)
good. I'm just having trouble today with "stuff"
Sorry, just back from phone call. Glad you liked the clue, Molly.
trying to download FireFox and I get a big circle with a line through it over the logo (as in a no smoking sign); I can't figure out why that's happening; but it won't open or download; so guess it's telling me the truth!
That sounds very odd Nef. I would contact Firefox, perhaps they can help you.
Husband home, time to head to the kitchen. Bye for now!
well, Molly; I just seem to be having one of those days/weeks. I'd locked my self out of my email and several other sites (health care sites, private nurse board, etc.); and need to download several other things like FLash, etc. I'll get there yet. At least I can play here and Words with Friends on FB; so I'm sort of a happy camper for now
bye Haz! HAGD!
some of this is my fault; some of it happened when the upgrade disc got messed up; some of it may have happened when my external hard drive fell and it now has a loose connection wire. My son fixed what were the biggest problems; I just am finding small irritations right now
and also getting used to the upgraded operating system is always fun too. (wondering where things went and if they are in different spots now)
What did you upgrade to? If you do a Google search like "Where is Add/Delete programs in Vista?" You will get some help finding what has changed.
I'm on a Mac, Molly. It used to be so simple; but never try to do these things with a toddler around and wanting to be on the "puter" at the same time
ANd now I need to fix lunch; DH is not up to fixing food these days
back; munching on a wonderful green salad for lunch
howdy all:) back for a few more words
boom! first word was an 8. this will be a good grid.
Re7/52!!!!
yes'm, along with re 8/75
oh wait i see what you did there ;)
Hi crossy, et al.
Yes LA, I was replying to your happy post : )
you two are so good, thanks for the re7, and re8's :)
Hi Neil...long time, no type
Haha. I've been typing though.
lol of course you have
Hi all, I'm back and on 82. I cannot stop now until I am a halfer.
hi Focal
Hi Lynxxx
Hi Sea Spray- am watching Days!
Whoo-hoo!! Hiya Focal :-)..... and everybody else!!
hi Soodle
Hey Lynn :-)
Howdy there Soodle - good to see the Irish flag flying!
Irish flag, and guinness truck in my pic. All boxes ticked!
A model of Irish womanhood. Well done.
Lynn, Focal and I went to school together, many years ago.....
Lovely!
Hey Kap :-)
Hey steady onthere Soodle, it wasn't THAT long ago!
Hey Ho.
That explains a lot then
weavied
oops
Its not even in the grid, Kap....
No word, don't worry.
Yeah- well- I'd be in trouble if it HAD been.
How are you getting on with the grid, Focal? Have you been banished to the PB yet?
I dont' understand a lot of the acronyms, must get my act (and credit card) together and go pro. . .
end that with whats on the beach Kap
What's the PB?
Now THAT is a question!
end what with what's on the beach?
aPenalty Box - a fictitious place filled with either home-made treats or cabana boys
Kap, you're so enigmatic!
Your we7
If you inadvertantly put a word from the grid into the chatlog, you get banished to the Penalty Box (PB). But its not too bad in there, Molly usually puts goodies in, and there are resident Cabana Boys to massage you and pamper you.
I'll take the cabana boys please Lynn!
Oooh! I had a bad run of putting words in the chat box earlier, but people were understanding - think my rookie status helps!
I could use a Cabana Boy today
hi all! just got nbt, but only 1/3 of the way there...
Only up to a point, and then we're tough.
dense
ack sorry ;()
I don't think a day goes by that I couldn't do with a Cabana Boy Sea.
I'll trek over there as well
Same!
I can't figure out what I said
Harry obviously would like a cabana boy too
Off with his head!
heh...if the cabana boy will watch my kids for awhile, I'm game
I don't like massages much though - from either gender
Your attempted word @2.31 Kap
I'll take two massages, please.
a tall tropical drink would be nice
Focal.... nbt = no blank tiles. You have got at least one word from each of the tiles. Nbs - no blank stats.... you get the picture!
Yeah, but putting sa4 on it???
ok OK OK ! So all I need for NBT is a lead on the second A in row 4. And I already achieved NBS without even realising it. Doh!
yep, same 1st 3 letters
Top card, focal, past tense.
Oh.
that one's from the third row, soodle
Doh... wrong A
OK.. plural of past tense of 'to eat'.. weird clue, I know.
Woohoo NBT!!!!
Thanks Soodle!
Yay!! That clue I gave is for what is known as a Babblet... a frequently occuring weird word. Other babblets are etui, etna, naoi, etc etc..
Yay- ABFAB!
Bye everyone

Bye Lynn :-)
Molly!!! I am 'helping', not lecturing! And in case you missed my earllier post, Focal and I sat together in the same classroom in the recent (!) past!
Focal, there really aren't any explanation for the acronyms. They are just shorthand. I don't use them myself, as they bug me. hagd...have a good day...brb...be right back...biab...back in a bit
Ah yes, errant Irish school girls. : )
isn't stevia a natural sweetener?
It's a local dialect here, and I'm sure I will get accustomed to it. .
Yes Harry but Enable doesn't recognize it.
proper noun
it's not the species name?
i don't think so
aah it's the genus

Stevia is no more a proper noun than sunflower is

*Sends tow truck for Kap*
evening all. molly, while you're sending towtruck for kap, please send me miraculous cold pills
hi dorens
hi. major complaints here. third day in a row with no exercise...
avec
kap, did you enjoy downton abbey last nite?
avec quoi?
lol
*Makes a hot steamy bowl of Jewish penicillin for Doren*
thanks mol. i actually stopped at the store on the way home from work and bought dill (that's how i like it). but i sure don't feel like making it
Do you know there is some truth to the Jewish penicilan thing. The vapors penetrate your nose and make it feel better for a while
debating going to book club tonite... loved the book. City of Thieves by David Benoit and I'd like to participate
yes bichon, but what's the difference between that and hot vapors of tea, or tomato soup for that matter?
I'm sure the others would appreciate not having you share tonight, dorens
you do have a point there. think of it as altruistic
yep
I'm not really sure, but if you believe enough, it might come true
down to 24
think i must find a list soon
My grandmother told me if I had something in my eye, to hold the eylid down over the bottom one and spit three times. Sure worked every time
i kind of feel that way about the woman who cut my hair on tuesday afternoon sniffin the whole time. less than 36 hours later, that was me
I don't know about book club, but I'm beyond sick and tired of people who come to work when they are sick.
ugh dorens!
but a cold can last for a week. can't imagine staying out for a little cold... i just stay in my office and keep away from people as much as possible, and wash my hands often
That sounds right. And throw your tissues away. You don't know how many people don't [starting with DH]
she kept saying she was at the end of her cold, but i am sure she was still shedding
we7?
What else would you do with a tissue besides throw it away?
sorry kj, not there yet
I'm done, anyone need a clue?
Molly, seems like a simple thing, not too much to ask. But yet, there it sits.
we7 starts like the animal that goes POP in the childrens song and ends like what is on the beach
we7, bichon?
ty
we 7, start out with a thin mammal and add a conjunction
thanks mol.. needed that and never woulda thunk it
TTFN
*Sigh* we7 is more Middle English.
hagn bichon

oh drats... missed the stiff upper lip guy
stiff upper lip guy? stats?
st5/12
not a guy... a characteristic
oh, ok. i didn't see that one right away either, but did find it when i listed.
it's just like yesterday, well almost... as soon as you see what you've missed you know it without even looking at the grid
yep
*Stops looking for a butler equivalent in the grid*
or roman school of thought
actually began with the greeks i think
ca7?
of course. .the only c i am missing
dorens - end an enzyme ending to the ca4
bingo. thanks kj
yw
