I have co7 and ex7 - what is the other 7?
not seeing the de7
wet grass and c4
We already own the couch, we just hoped we could get some of the money we spent on it back... that's what the contest was for. People who had purchased a couch from The Sofa Company could enter to win back what they paid. Cool huh?
thanks!
https://www.facebook.com/thesofaco
good for you neil
Thanks flosey.
We can sure use the money right now, with both of us unemployed... we're broke.
thats great neil - so now you can buy more furniture if required - or just blow the money on fun stuff
Thanks vanilla
yw
Uh, no. Not gonna blow the money, that's for sure.
It will go toward necessities.
oh dear - necessities are so necessary
Yep.
Just hope at least one of us gets a job SOON!
Temporary freelance assignments and substitute teaching happen now and then... it helps, but it's just not enough.
fingers crossed neil - you have to just keep hammering away at applications
5 to go and might have to check out neil's list
That's what I'm doing, ursh... daily.
oh my.. my names in the grid! thats a first!

Yes neil - fireworks. I'm off to visit my mum now - she's 94 and gets lonely because she can't get out and about on her own any more
Yep. :) Despite Bob Thomas' efforts to ruin us. lol
Bob Thomas?
Happy babbling everyone
Some wanna-be saboteur who posted something in The Sofa Company's FB page that he figured could ruin our chances... what a dick. Didn't succeed.
people can only go sofa-r
I guess he saw my name and wondered... so he did some digging. Duh. What did that have to do with our entry in the contest? *headshake*
Haha, yeah. I should've expected that one. :P
I was trying to couch it carefully
He made a post claiming I was "using it" to win, ha. Uhhh yeah, sure. :P Considering I made NO mention.
well you won. so that's like the saying all's well that ends well
I am keeping my fingers crossed you nail a nice gig
Exactly. And it was fun laughing at him.
Thanks, ru! Let's hope. And soon!
hey neil.. if I come down to LA soon.. I'd love to take you two out to dinner
Aww ru... that's an awfully nice offer. But that would be expensive.
Hello
unless that's overstepping boundaries here
Hey Jellen!
hi jellen
stuck at 12 galdangit
What are you stuck on... know yet?
I'm guessing you didn't list yet.
If you do you'll probably get them fast.
That's always happened to me if I've listed... you see what you need to find and it's amazing how much that helps.
9 now
Wooo. Go, ru!
How do you list?
You look at the stats list. I posted one. The link for it is in my profile.
Sometimes there is a Lickety's list posted though, which is found at the link under the "Tile Stats" section, saying "Lickety's Babble Clues".

hi dart
Is dart here?
Oh hey. So he is.
*lurking*
I'm confused.
By what Jellen?
Life, generally.
Huh? What has prompted you to say that now?
But the reference to Dart in this case...
Well dart is "online" here.
Check the "Who's Online" tab.
Ah.
I guess ruru checked and saw him there.
<---has a sixth sense when dart's playing
Yep ru. I kinda figured that. :P lol
not to be confused with a sick sense of humor
Okey doke. Oh, that explains it, ruru, lol...
dart radar
Well you have that too... but anyway. :P
I did a dart-scan jellen
I bet you always do, ru
Hurry... you can beat him! ;)

If you can have a hodge podge, why can't you have a hodge or a podge?
this is a strange grid!
I just put my toes in. How strange is it?
I just came in, too, but the first 30 were too easy!
Maybe you are brilliant!
I don't think so; I NEVER finish
I agree about hodge and podge

New word: to unseat people at their house of worship is to depew them.

The really holy people sit in the godpews
I think I won't be allowed....
To remove deity: degod.
remove Wicked Witch . . . dehag
See, we could have bumped this up to at least 100

dyslexic marinara: suace.
If it's going to allow stupid words like de7/48, I think our words should fly too

ty

Well done!
nah, think i'll convince hubz to take me out for brekkies
I would say "like dogs care about walking in wet grass" but apparently the bulldog next door does. Go figure.
where we going dawg im hungry
sounds like a plan - mine is already off to work
probably to a local diner, bojangles. 50's theme decor and good food.
ok wait for me.... lol
Molly, my minpin was very picky about what was under his feet. he'd walk on his hind legs to get someone to pick him up if it was too cold, too wet, too hot, to dirty...picky little pooch
i mostly think he did it cause he knew i'd go rescue him. spoiled brat...sure do miss him.
see you all later!
Ooo, I love the name Bojangles for a diner.
agreed
this is a funny grid for typing in things you don't think will work and then they do
No kidding Hursh : )
i don't know if the right kind of people are here but...
name that proper noun! one of laura ingalls' aunts
Docia!
ding ding ding!
yay for little house!
That's funny I was just watching the episode of Joan Of Arcadia when God reminded Joan that she took up knitting when she was going through her "Little House" phase.
ah, i haven't seen that show
marty is running around the house like a madman
hey if that episode was really major you could call it an epicode (soft c)
Is the x useful today or just window dressing?
At the end of one word Kap
thank you. got it.
Oh, and in two others
now mitten is mad at marty for being so active when she was trying to nap
in, like within?
Yes, not the beginning and not the end
ah.
cat fight!
Sorry, I can't count. In three others.
Hm.
I have 1 left and it involves that x.
Hey Kap!
good morning all
hey, go!
And hi All
the first ex is related to 2nd book of bible, ends in two vowels.
How was the hand Dr?
Oh, stupid. It's aarthritis, and he prescribed a hard splint for 6 weeks. Meantime, the flareup has abated, so I am thinking- I need to in a hard splint?
ty hurshy. That did it for me. May I return the favor and offer a clue?
Oh, I thought that was a Greek drama word
Kap?
So I have a PT appt for my occasionally flared up shoulder, and later have an OT appt for my hand
Well at least it abated for a while.
and will have to get a separate referral if my hip bothers me. So much for holistic care.
Seems like very simplistic medicine. Of course your pain will abate if you immobilize something.
the orhopods cut you up into little pieces
OK see you all tomorrow
bye gramma
Du-h yeah. And if it doesn't, I get cortisone injection. Which I could have used in the week and a half it was really hurting.
Peggy Kappi's Yoga For Arthritis is very good for stretching the joints that are affected by arthritis
right
that would be all of mine. lol
They do pieces. I asked the hand guy if it was a characteristic of arthritis to flare in different body parts at different times-
good question
and he said no! How would he even know- he only does hands!
I wonder if there is a separate doctor for each toe and finger.
again right
It's on orthopedic conspiracy Kap
"Oh doctor, my middle finger is aching."
"You need to go to the middle finger specialist. Third door on the right."
kap, bad girl
:)
: )
I swear, arthritis is just a term for joints that get over used or under used.
I am kind of looking forward to hand OT, but otherwise it looks like the best relief is anti-inflammatories and kvetching.
kvetching always good
Of all the gin joints in the world...
right Molly it is from over use.
Overuse> My right hand? Ya think?
but there are pathological changes to the joints
calcium deposits and deterioration, etc.
Well yes and no. Depends on how much exercise you get.
I excercise. I draw. I use a pen. there is joint deterioration.
It runs (or walks as the case may be) in my family.
mine also
good morning.
You asked. So I am of an age where a 30 minute discussion of my health is de rigeur.
Hi m9
Enough. GOod morning.
I asked
24 more to find on this little bugger.

hi rbud. Boy, chat is flying.
hi hi! :)
Bunnies have de7s too.
and laps :)
take care of yourself, scrabbs
missed that in anatomy class
*looking at the back of my foot*
yes. when you go to bed, you soak your feet in really hot water, then you put on cotton socks that have been wrung out very well with icy water..
can put dry wool socks over and then go to bed. stay covered til morning
better clue wanted?
and this does what?
Oh, another remedy is to cover bottom of feet with Vick's mentholatum ointment.
please, welki
feet are dry and it really clears up congestion!
<-- thinks about putting that icy sock in small of husband's back *lol*
morning de* (moisture on grass) + animals have cl**s on their feet
ty
I sent a request to an L S
Vicks on the feet is great for a cough
morning de* + talon
thanks scrabbler!
I learned something!
crushed garlic wrapped in sock (or something) is also good. Garlic gets very hot and burn all sorts of nasties out of system...
nice. i have all the 7 now. whoo hoo.
I would not sleep well wearing wet socks
got it, learned something new
so not put garlic straight onto skin, no
still trying for the ex 7 - how many ex words are there
I don't like smelly.. So I think I'll stick to the wet sock. besides I know of that being recommended by naturopaths a lot, but not the others
would it not get your bed wet?
oh you wouldn't think so... but you end up sleeping like the dead!
no. you wring them out well. and put the wool socks over...
keeps vampires away too.

I don't have the other ex6 yet
A plant belonging to one of the greater part of the vegetable kingdom, and which the plants are characterized by having c wood bark, and pith, the wood forming a layer between the other two, and increasing, if at all, by the animal addition of a new layer to the outside next to the bark. The leaves are commonly netted-veined, and the number of cotyledons is two, or, very rarely, several in a whorl.
if that helps.LOL
thanks scrabbs!
wow!
thnx Scrabs

morning all!
... morning sue
howdy suze!
hi dos and crossy!
left column gray, feeling a bit like a do4/6 since that was my last word there :-)
... it's not a hard one today ... ... I'm betting I'll have to list with fewer than 10 ... I've noticed people finishing without a list ...
I essentially always have to list if I am going to finish, have been especially brain-numb lately with all the stress - but I am well past half way with only a few clues from chat...
... yes ... other than the big c which I'm only starting ... there are only 5 others which I probably won't feel like using the infinite monkeys on ... so I'll list for them
I am over half on all consonant tiles - words beginning with vowels always give me trouble
... only the "e"s were troublesome today
speaking of e clue for ex 6/36 plz
... and I got half of them without difficulty ... ... but the monkekys gave up on the last one for each e
... go up
... there's ex6 and 7 ... 7 ends with a four letter word ... which I believe is the third person of a vowel
ty dose
got the 6/7 combo but don't have the 6/36
... sorry ... I don't see how to clue it without practically spelling it ... so you get a vague one
... ahh ... that's the one the monkeys gave up on
is the third letter of the ex6/36 the same as the third letter of the 6/7 combo?
hi all! uu: start w/ 1sst 4 letters of 2nd book of bible; + ** vey
... yes
ex +part of the word meaning strange + **vey!
ha, got it! monkeys think it's a Greek plural. they may or may not be right.
... and it's a truly monkeyable word ... sounding like something Homer Simpson would say
anyway, thanks all!!
yw
one to go & the monkeys aren't helping. clue plz for wo 5/24
... rhymes with the we5/24
... another monkey word
like a car, turqaz
(and thanks, I didn't have it!)
fireworks. ty dos & uu!
In english it often means a lot of money!!As ion Ive got a wo.... in my back pocket!!!
oh you brits. while we're at it: oh you scots
fireworks for me too!
... Never having had the money to put in a pocket the monkeys thank you for the help in remembering it for next time .... ... bet it's there next week
hi all. could i get a clue for the de7?
yay deeha and turqaz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ty, uu
Time to restart the server. Hold on to your hats, folks!
compound word, pigeonman, morning moistness plus bird part
anything going on? left and had to resign on but my word list is gone. Tried to refresh but no go. ???
dewclaw
same thing here mary
and the same thing here
... strange things here too ... ... I see my word list ... but I've just typed a word which I know isn't on my list ... and I'm told it's there
yep same here WHAT IS HAPPENING!
... Dr God is rebooting the server ... that may be the cause of everything
well when will it be fixed
... when the gods of the bits and bites permit that last electron to flow ... and not a moment before ... .... shouldn't be long
... I just refreshed and got an error message indicating the the system hasn't been fully reload yet ... ... so I wouldn't panic ... yet ...
in the meantime, as a suggestion, go to Lickety, Babble and then enter your words later.
Maybe I'm just being a Shiksa, but isn't it "oy vey"?
yes it is molly lol
hello all - is the chog working ??
seems to be:)
is anyone else having trouble with babble?
oh ok i popped in to finish and lo and behold says i have no words at all - sure I had about 20 left to find
... the good doctor rebooted the system ... and it does not appear to have come back correctly ... ... I'm sure that he's working on it ... ...
seems to be an initialization error
I think we all are
thanks Dose
word list won't load
Guess I'll come back later. hagd all
that sounds like a good plan hego - prob here is that it is after 8pm - oh well up early in the morning will have a go then
tc ursh
still no list after 1/2 hour
hmm, could have sworn i finished this grid this morning.
has anyone notified Dr. G about the problem?
... Dr.G appears to have been the cause ... so I'm guessing he knows ..
oh dear, bet he's frustrated. i wont email him then.
Awwwwwww...has this been going on long?
Howdy, all. Well, this is a bummer. I'd declare fireworks, but I really haven't "already entered" all the words. Wonky that chat is still functioning.
I'm sure Dr. God will have it sorted in record time.
Wow, interesting. Everything is fine in this (previously opened) browser window. If I open another one, I get all the broken board stuff.
Must be sun spots or something. Alien intervention? Anonymous hackers? Iranian cyber terror?
Waning full moon
Okay. Will check back later. Patience, grasshoppers. This too shall pass. *POOF*
anyone else having issues....???
... everyone else having issues ...
lickety is working. you can solve the puzzle there and save the words for later to enter them here.
... the good doctor warned of the reboot at 11:27 CST and it doesn't appear to have reinitialized correctly
I'd nearly finished... all my words have disappeared..
i've got a warning :mysql_fetchasso(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /var/ww/html/playbabble/index.php on line 128
I have the same error message...
i bet you words will reappear once Dr. G gets all the bugs fixed.
wow, what a bug!
is this the same puzzle from yesterday? i have that too, ibd
i have the same thing ibd!
new puzzle, Jen. go to lickety if you want to work it.
thanks, ibd
do we just sit tight or renenter words?
Apparently re-booting the server blew the word list but not the chat box. I have to assume it's being worked on.
Has anyone emailed Dr. God?
... I've just put all the words into Lickety ...... and when I type in the grid it tells me that I've already entered the word ... even words which I hadn't entered before the reboot ... ... ... thus ... something is happening here ... what it is ain't exactly clear
... but it is two hours now ...
Depending on the SQL error, they can take a while to fix.
... glad I don't hafta do it for a living any more ...
for some reason the words I've entered are not showing up in the word list or in the stats
oh -- just read the chat -- seem's I'm not the only one. See you later
All fixed. Sorry about that, folks.
thanks, Dr_G!
Thanks Dr.G
It seems everyone assumed everyone else was emailing me to let me know. Otherwise I would have fixed it a while ago. :)
Damn, that ass out of u and me thing.
YAY!!!!!
i got a double grid today!! once on here and once alone on lickety! :)
Yay! Babble is all better. Hi All
Hello all. I just got here. Guess I picked the right time to enter!

Join the club sue. I retired 4 years ago, June
you are not the only jealous one red, my hubby is insanely jealous of me. I hear about it daily
co 6/27?
Never thought I would want to, but I had to file for bankruptcy (long story, still in progress) and without debts I need less income to make a go of it.
My parents retired early. I doubt I will be able to.
dopen

My parents retired at 55.
Hi Kaplan!

what's cooking in PB?
ha ha kap, i think your de should work too!
tyvm Gwen
I am about to try some biscuits, chicken breast fresh asparagus and cream of asparagus soup....
If you make the soup vegetarian I'll try it.
8-D
I brought some date liqueur back from Israel and can contribute it to the PB as well
OK. It is vegetarian, but not vegan or lacto/ovo anything.
but Kap, technically you arent in the PB since they werent really words.
Hard to do vegan "cream of" anything- but it can be done...
Ws Wrangled
They included words.
So depending who is the guard on duty...
good going gwen. I have 34 left. and they are well hidden.
16.
anyone have both Us? i have un5/28 . . .
I have a one-legged thing.
un5/18 here
I don't know how you un5 something.
un + something you hang clothes on
ty, looking . . .
thx for the one-legged thing, kap, that was the other one
un6/27 is what you want- one legged
darn typos -- i have un5/18, not 28! (thanks, still looking)
can anyone help with the do 5/20 please
Ok, I am off to do some chopping.
do5/20 sounds like a nickname for the eccentric millionaire Hughes.
un5 clue= Anti-Margaret.
got it, thanks molly!
Date liqueur? Is that for constipated alcoholics?
that would be prune liqueur, I think
got the other U at last, OY
anyway they made it on the kibbutz and it was pretty good
Gs Grappled
thx Molly
afternoon everyone - can i get a clue for the DE 7/68
I have ex7 and co7- what's the third 7?
de7 = morning moisture + bird part

Interesting word.
UN 6?27?
some dogs have them, they look like a little extra cl** up their leg a bit
hello. i don't see any wings nor beaks :(
one foot, jin
foot part, TO
I just learned this word. Nails.
cats have them as well ty sue
there you go :-) bird was the first thing that came to mind, must have been thinking of hawks or something
un6 = word meaning one-legged
(and I own two cats and a dog...)
i have been ou since before nine runnig errands/shopping! i am exhausted!
is it similar to the 5?
Ps a-Punished
the un6 is not similar to the un5, except for the first 2 letters a-course
The un6 is like a one legged thing you would put a camera on
un6 = un + little portable MPS player (brand name)
Hey everybody :-). Just a quick pop in before I hit the sack.
ack, that's MP3 player
hi soodle!
thanks Gwen - missing that middle vowel
no, soodle, you're supposed to do that in the sack . . .
Early bed time for you Soodle.
Har dee har Gwen, about the quick pop in : )
nbt at last, and 10 to go, ha
Early to bed, early to rise, makes Mrs Soodle healthy (?) wealthy (?) and wise (???)
MRS? Soodle??? You've been holding out on us
Mrs/Mizz/Ms/Miss..... who cares?
any clues for any of the eX's?
ex6/7 combo sounds like one of the gases that we need to breathe (and plural)
Sorry Jin.... not that far yet.

Os Obliterated
clue for the 2nd ex?
Well, it's been a very relaxing Saturday and I have an awesome red sauce simmering, so I am content. Hope everyone else is having/had a nice day.
ex6, rhymes with (sort of) what you need to breath
ep + *** To A Grecian Urn
(That was for Sue)
MollyL.... Content is awesome. You enjoy your 'contentedness', girl.
thanks, molly I have that one but am missing the other 2 from that e. Vowel words and I do not get along.
Ty, molly, that's my last E. 2 woids to go!
ep4, really big movie (or poem)
ed4, scandiavian poem (i think) of ep4 proportions
thanks, gwen (I figured they'd be fish).
shall i fax you a halibut? lol
I think the poem ends in an a, apparently this is something you can eat, thanks! that's all the e's!
Arrghh... Very nearly typed that ep4/6 into the grid...
and I could always use a nice faxed halibut :-)
okay, gotta run to the store . . .
bye, gwen!
well, i am going to ask, because i need one more H. i have: ha4, ha5, he5, h04, h04, ho5, ho4, ho4
one more ho4, prob 4/12
okay, hunting
yepper, that was the one, TY. UNO
The ed word is some kind of edible taro. I'm sure you all eat it every day. Not.
taro? i don't even know that taro is! (apart from mystical playing cards, lol)
taro (poi) is one of the VERY few foods that I actually don't like
The cards are tarot.
ha, finally got the last h!
Oh my, Soodle and I have gotten to be on formal terms. I've gone from Molls to MollyL. : (
taro is a fish? does he crontol the weather?
oh, and by the way
FIREWORKS!
YAY GWEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !
i used morewords for the last word. oh, well 8-D
what was your last word, gwen?
tarot and taro are homonyms, yes?
they are indeed.
it was a fish, sue! (an archaic word meaning a plow handle, i think)
How wonderful is my real estate agent? Every year I get a love song mix CD from him on Valentine's Day. He sends them to all his clients. What a guy.
you mean songs like I am the walrus? lol
very cool, molly!
He does things like that throughout the year, pumpkin carving contests for Halloween, trivia contests in his news letter...I'm sure it keeps a lot of people connected to him.
well, i'm off, gotta pick up that faxable halibut . . . ar ar . . . bye
I'm staring at my fax machine already! :-)

de7 compound, the nail on a dogs thumb
does it start with the de4/5?
no, starts with morning mist
OK what does the other word start with?
c
Is it a co4/5 or 6?
think of the nails on a cat or dog
got it thanks
hello dear ones. countfor the u please?
hi trif un 6/27 and un 5/18
evening all. I have 29 left... I want to finish!
hi red
jes are you still here?
gess not. Hello Westford!
hey
I came across your tres leches recipe today
YUM, I love tres leches!
it is so good!
It is! I should make some soon!
son, dil and 2 youngest granddaughters are heading your way on tues
how's the weather?
breaking news: whitney houston has died.
NO WAY! What happened? !
ok her publicist confirmed she is dead but her agent is now saying she is alive
All the news stories say she died.
None of the stories give cause of death. I fear it's going to be drug related.
any clue for the last f word? have fl 4 and 6.
fl 4/11:a defect of some kind and fl 6/42 is past tense
that is really quite sad. She is only 2 years older than me....what a waste
Here is the beginning of article from ABC News about Whitney Houston: Whitney Houston's rep issued a shocked denial today to counter reports that the singer/actress has died In a statement, her publicist, Nancy Seltzer, said, "I've just spoken to Whitney. She is perfectly fine and does not understand why, with everything going on in the world right now, they have to find new rumors to dig up. She is home in New Jersey with her family." Seltzer said people were calling the singer at home and sobbing, after apparently having heard reports of her death over the radio. According to the rumors, Houston had died of a drug overdose.
CNN is still sticking to the story she's dead.
CNN saying they have a very reliable source.
AP news has published it as well
if she is alive, her publicist is gonna have some BIG 'splaining to do!
Houston talked a lot about addiction being her demon. And although she went through rehab twice, I don't think she ever beat it.
trif -- one of her publicist says yes. one says no
I am done! I have fireworks! co5/24 was my last word
alll the news are now confirming it. :( RIP
I'll be here off and on to clue for the rest of the night
how hard can this be to figure out? call her number, and if she answers, story is fixed.
don't the publicists have each other's number?
I really, really hate addiction. It robs people of everything good about themselves and destroys the lives of the people who love them.
LOL Trifioso!
the PR denial was from Sept. 12th
This is going to make for a dismal Grammy ceremony tomorrow.
oh my! you're right!
oh, I hadn't thought of that!
I feel for her daughter. she can't be very old, and it's horrible for a child to lose a parent
I believe her daughter is 17 or so.
There was some story about her being caught on tape snorting cocaine a while back.
its quite sad. another life cut short.
al sharpton is very upset
who died?
Whitney Houston
really? are you kidding me?
No Ru, apparently it's true.
wow.. that's awful.. she was so talented
cocaine is a horrible drud
drug
yes it is
I would imagine, even with the short amount of time, the Grammy people will put together some sort of tribute.
they would i'm sure.
or at the very least the people who put together the in memoriam montage are prob crapping their pants for havingto start from scratch.
hola
This is going to shake up a lot of people in the music industry. I imagine it will be a somber night.
ah had to go google that... wow
theres also a grammy ball tonight
She had such a powerhouse voice when she was at her peak.
hola kje
hi everyone
hi lb
her body was discovered at the hotel where the grammy ball was to take place
very sad
Wow, that's pretty haunting.
cnn saying grammys may be postponed
I think that is a good idea, if it's possible.
now theyre talking abotu crack is whack... couldnt they have not done that
I agree Cos, that is in poor taste.
msnbc showed a video of her leaving a bathroom rubbing her nose and sniffing
sounds like she was a tormented person from what I read
..must have been her allergy season cos.. don't ya think?
someone just said on cnn marijuana pills killd her.. wtf
lol probably ru
I see alot of people in restaurants allergic to the bathroom
must be the soap or something
i'm so sure that's it.
that's what I thought too
lol
soap must be dusty as well for it to show up on their noses
have you guys heard? Whitney Houston is dead
yes very sad.
Yes Jen, we've been talking about it.
sorry
No, don't be sorry.
ok
Cos, pills doesn't surprise me. A lot of addicts do more than one drug.
marijuana pills though?
I've never heard of marijuana pills
thats my point.
I think that person on MSNBC has their facts confused. Marijuana and pills maybe, but not marijuana pills.
I think those are the ones with the letters THC on them
I think whitney is the only person to ever sing a Dolly Parton song better than Dolly parton
cnn said it molly
blasphemy ru!
it's such a shame.....she had loads of talent and wasted it!
it's true though
i wouldnt know :)
I still haven't recovered from the last music industry horror
what's that - the superbowl hafltime show?
the reign of terror put upon us by Gaga has not yet ended
hah! good one knight
They say the eyes are the windows to the soul. If you look at pictures of Whitney Houston over the years, you can see in her eyes what drugs were doing to her.
no.. MIley Cyrus licking the wrong end of a phallilc birthday cake
i liked the halftime show!
oh...sorry cos
i noticed that molly
Ru, those were some of the grossest pictures I've ever seen.
lol its ok. :)
I was never a big Madonna fan
me neither.. she can't sing
not am i... i liked the visuals
ru -- she can't act either
I did like CeeLo though
LOL ...boy is THAT for sure
she was pretty good in desperately seeking susan though
evita was AWFUL and tis considered her masterpiece lol
loved Evita . . .
Madonna has always been way too over the top for me.
<---sides with Cos.. evita was horrible
I guess you really don't like Gaga then
loved it on Broadway and loved the movie
i dont like Gaga's style but I think she is a terrific human being
They should have left Evita on stage. Patti Lupone owns that role.
Actually I do like Lady Gaga
No..I meant Molly
evita was OK... not good acting, but she does have a great voice
like Gaga too
I can't stand Gaga, even though I think she has a good voice.
Gaga is currently learning ASL so she can give a concert in full ASL
that got her my respect
I like some of gaga's stuff too, if in the mood, it makes for good work out music
I think Gaga's audiences are a bit whacko however
How could they not be? Gaga goes for the whacko appeal.
So did Rick Perry and look where that got him.. back to texas
it's a slice of life... fascinating in its own way
she's gotta be better than theb iebs
lol ru
biebs
My idea of the music in Hell is "Poker Face" and "Bad Romance" looped back to back, over and over again.
my idea of music in hell is country
As for "Born This Way" that was such a blatant rip off of Madonna, I'm surprised Gaga wasn't sued.
Mine would be getting stuck in an elevator with Celine and Kenny G music piped in
sharon osbourne is skipping the grammy parties tonight
Is she worried about ozzie?
Okay, I have to fold. Celine is definitely the soundtrack in Hell.
or out of respect?
she didn't want to leave Ozzie home with the Parakeets
lol
:D
ryan's dad was int he concert in iowa where ozzy bit the bat
he's been banned from performing there lol
ewww
oh.. wow.. he is one sicko human being
he bit the bat's head off.
I think the Bat Is Iowa's state bird isn't it?
It was kind of funny that Ozzy did that in straight laced Iowa.
and his brain is fried from all the drugs he did
i thought it was a riot
co6/27 anybody?
I hope he donates his brain to science
reproduced on paper dan
past tense of xerox, dan
co6 - made a replica
what brain?
oh geez tx for the fish ruru & kje
Past tense of to reproduce on paper 2Bit
lol
well, whats left of it
yw
how is lil bit?
and Mrs Bit
and the whole Bit-n-kaboodle
dan2, mrs and little bit
miss2bit had her first ever day of yogurt out both ends :-(
ugh
?? what's that?
she seems on the mend, and no fever
poor baby
Throwing up and diarrhea at the same time.
oh.. ugh
I just hate it when little ones are ill
Blessings to wee 2Bit. Glad to hear she's getting better.
but given that she was 21 months on Tuesday, we feel pretty blessed in the health arena
did the baby yell yo!Plait!
poor little button, and mom and dad too
wow, it has gone so fast dan!
you are very blessed Dan...I can't believe she is almost 2!
any sibling soon? ; )
and we will hope to all go to bed early
and hopefully, everyone will sleep through the night.
See 2Bit, it's not just your neighbors asking that. : P
sibling futures trading lower today, kje :-)
lol dan
though we suspect there may be a cousin on the way - my brother and his wife are being kind of coy.
easier raising 8 puppies?
ah, yes, not the best time to bring that up - lol
lbd - hah! not sure about easier, but certainly a marathon vs a crazy 32-legged sprint
sounds like the Susan Komen Foundation pulling out of Planned Parenthood hasn't affected many of the Bits
lol
those pups just turned 3, speaking of time flying
wow, I had forgotten the puppy cam... I have been in babble too long
"Pulling out of Planned Parenthood"...I love it.
does mrs 2bit hear from the owners? how are the pups doing?
:D
jennifer hudson will lead the tribute to whitney at the grammys
all are well as far as we've heard. I know she sent out happy birthdays, and got some news back.
That is perfect Cos. Jennifer Hudson has a very Whitney like voice.
got to go shopping for stuff for dinner.. bye for now.. everyone
it's hard to believe button going on 2 and the pups being 3...wow
bon appetit ru
bye, ru
my dinner hopefully is coming to me any minute... sushi
Bonne swaaaa
hope they get your order right, kje
why don't you just get an aquarium Kje and avoid the take out
lol
that last order was free, lbd... hopefully that made them be more careful
still, it would be nice to get what you ordered.
it always makes me sad, as much of a foodie as you are, that you have no appreciation for fine seafood, ru
that's not seafood.. it's bait
and ru living in California...all that wonderful seafood...drool
I have an appreciation for good seafood. I just don't like raw fish.
I tot agree lbd,,, I would prefer to be able to eat it - most of that went in the trash
no, there's chum and there's sushi
It's chum Ru.
lol
it's an acquired taste, i agree. but some fish are just too good to ruin with heat.
really.. who'd want to knock back all those parasites
i don't like smoked fish, but a good lox...yum
kill them with wasabe! brb
it's delicious
and lox I could eat like candy
Y'all probably eat steak tartare too, right?
not me.. I don't eat raw stuff
I eat carpacio
That was for the sushi eaters Ru.
carpaccio
ty ru
you won't eat beef carpaccio, ru?
Didn't we live through years of evolution that taught us to cook our meat and fish?
I have trouble with raw stuff. I can't get it down. I do like different fish.. but only cooked
I have to even have my eggs really cooked well
I am not an egg fan, will only eat them scrambled with something in them
got to run.. night all
gn
night ru
ooh carpaccio and steak tartar!
beef carpaccio with arugula, parmesan, maybe some melon.... yum
or with tonnato sauce
or drizzled with a little truffle oil
man, I miss italy
i miss having a good italian restaurant to go to.
yes, dallas is not the best place for italian
there was a great place in b-more
oh there was a place in Pocatello, ID. really good italian food.
I've been to Pocatello!
but we didn't eat italian, we ate trout
actually, a lot of good eateries there.
and pizza also
buddies is awesome for pizza...gotta have a buddy salad.
that may have been where we went, can't remember now, but it was packed
probably buddies, then
but that was years ago, so may be somewhere totally gone by now
and a restaurant called butterburrs. yummy breakfasts with cinnamon twists to die for
whew! glad to be home my babble friends...minus 14 and dropping to minus 30 with the wind chill tonight:(
didn't eat breakfast out, was at friend's cabin
three dog night, crossy. glad you're home safe and sound
hi cross
howdy kje
three dog night indeed lbd
trying to remember the italian restaurant's name...looked like a castle from the outside
I haven't been to idaho in more than 10 years, spent a summer in Boise once
worked for Mrs Powell's Cinnamon Rolls
just googled it. Remo's and apparently now they have a sushi menu too!
Heyas kids ..
hi torgie
italian and sushi? in the same place? no no no no no no
hi BGH
i know, just doesn't sound right.
Popcorn for dinner here ..
I am trying to get in a negotiation mood and not working... reading a couple books, trying to psych up... I need to get in the right frame of mind for an upcoming meeting.... ugh
popcorn and bubble gum
Mental toughness, K .. you have it ..
who you negotiating with?
wish that were all that was needed, tor
current employer and potential future employer - separately of course
good luck. i'm not any good with negotiations like that.
in general, women aren't..that is the problem ; )
yeah, we're seen as pushy or brassy if we are good at negotiating what we want.

For example, today's story is true. I'm amazed at the skill of some babblers here. I'll never have that talent.

Babble is not the place for political statements
Hello KnightTime! How are you doing? Welcome to grid

May I please have a clue for ex6-36? Thanks
THAT would have been my next choice
oh dear ex and just anagram iodo
ex+ vowel + Mc Arther was a (his rank cut short)
pl for yje 8
plural for the 8
told you my fingers were off
Thanks Hootowl, I think I have that for ex6-39....could you see if the one above it would fit? Thanks
ok now Iunderstand vanillas clue
my clue was gthe easiest
see?
same first 3 letters + 2/3 of pet animal +another vowel
if I knew what an iodo was
just reverse it after the ex
I guess if I spent for time listening I'd be better off. I tend to be DIY
its nearly time for the new grid
when it gets this late I tend to just give the word if it's just 1 or 2 - why suffer
Fireworks. Thanks vanilla and hootowl. I was cutting it too close, wasn't I?
great congrats
nah! There's been worse for sure!
congrats
whitney houston died
Does anyone else realise my son has been lurking? He's going back up the stats!
hello
