Did someone give a clue for po7 and I missed it?

12:40 am

hi! great clue knight

12:40 am

i don't care

12:40 am

don'tlook at it

Thanks maya got it

we know but you could

12:40 am

I

12:41 am

I'm sorry, but when was there a "No political icon" rule enacted? Did I miss that?

anyone have a clue list

12:41 am

I didn't notice jilli

12:41 am

it's just one person's opinion - it means nothing

12:41 am

I'm leaving

there isn't of course but we try to keep this friendly

12:42 am

good point vanilla

12:42 am

jill just ignore it - consider the source!

12:42 am

it's an icon. He's not shoving it down anyone's throat. He's not jumping up and down waving and begging everyone to check his icon

12:42 am

hello everyone

12:42 am

awww don't leave jilli

12:43 am

Cn I give my opinion?

12:43 am

I have seen polital discussions here quite often

12:43 am

so is the icon any different?

12:44 am

Exactly Saphyre!!!

Is there a list anywhere?

12:44 am

I stay out of them..lol

12:44 am

oh please - let's not get into a political debate -- we've had politics ad nauseum on TV all winter - surely that is enough!!! - more than enough!

12:44 am

Much less intrusive

sure but you know where it leads so rather chat about your dog or your carbuncle

i see we have trouble in babble land no room for that to many good peeps in here for thta

12:44 am

Clues are up

ty pres

thank you mrp you're a winner

12:44 am

12:44 am

hi there mrp, good to see you

12:45 am

ty mrp

12:45 am

hope all is well

12:45 am

Well, just get tired of certain peeps getting their knickers in a twist every night and leaving because things don't suit them. That's happened at least twice this week

12:45 am

hope all is well with you mrp!

12:45 am

Thank you, mrp!!!

12:45 am

no trouble just i think politics should not be addressed in icon or discussion

12:45 am

hi and thanks :) everytime I log in, something is going down in babbleland... shame really

12:45 am

ty mrp - but i am so clever this morning i got f/works listless - sure thats a first

12:45 am

no one woulda even looked at the icon if someone hadn't said anything...

12:46 am

congrats ursh

12:46 am

true rbud

12:46 am

it was really great here earlier, we had a blast! that was about 5 hours ago too! so is sad when it goes pear shaped

12:46 am

and again rbud, Exactly my point! Some people just seem determined to create a prob where there isn't one

its not storming yet just a little breeze

12:46 am

oh wow ursh! and this one doesn't look 'nice' either!

12:47 am

down to 9, but it

12:47 am

s a stinker

12:47 am

12:47 am

*it's a stinker

12:47 am

glad you had a great time on the chog earlier mrp!

12:47 am

12:47 am

it's really windy here

12:48 am

ah mrp! someone got a little twisted over a "political" icon and said they weren't appropriate here.

12:48 am

babblelady - bring up clue list and refresh they should change

12:48 am

I never even look at icons

12:48 am

i checked it for you babblelady, it is working now... maybe need to shut program and restart?

12:48 am

I know I have to do that at times

12:49 am

I'm back to looking for my last 10 words.

12:58 am

wtg mom

12:59 am

congrats mom

Hi Mr. P

Thanks got it

12:59 am

sorry if I offended anyone. I msy not agree with someone, but I'll defend their right to have an itty bitty icon that no one really looks at. LOL

12:59 am

Thanks everyone!!!

1:00 am

no worries mom :)

1:00 am

mom, i didn't even notice the icon

nor did I until it was pointed out. Over and done

1:01 am

yep.shrug

1:03 am

I also object to folks making blanket statements that there are "rules" to adhere to here, I think that's not really so. We are all just mostly well-behaved, which is one thing I like about Babbleland, and so no actual rules are usually necessary.

perhaps the icon of the day/icon theme has special signifigance to some... ?? I know that it definitely is important to some babblers

np here mag kinda crazy over someone getting mad over an icon

1:03 am

agreed rbud

1:03 am

People who want to proselytize should be ignored.

whereas i hardly ever change my icon

1:04 am

i love your icon mrp!

rbud, there are no 'rules'! absurd!! just courtesy is needed in most instances

1:05 am

will someone please give me a clue for po7? my only missing word

the head of the catholic church flosey and hi!

1:05 am

thanks mrp

1:05 am

My little granddaughter and her puppy make me smile - and at the end of a long day that is what I need

1:05 am

agreed, and it's not courteous to trounce someone over little or nothing.

night, robbie! :)

1:20 am

nite saph!

1:21 am

nite rbud!

1:21 am

*poof*

oh, step away to clean up the mess in the PB and miss jilli!

and nite to those who left :)

1:22 am

oh, it's the whole thing with the sacred first hour, too, I was partly thinking of that when I spoke of rules - how some act as though it's set in stone. while I do think it's a nice policy, it's fallen in the ditch lately, and not much can be done to redeem it. it's a constantly changing landscape around here, rules would be futile.

1:24 am

I've been here since close to the beginning - there are always a few ruffled feathers

1:24 am

better to reminisce about favorite policies, than to loudly insist we all stick to them.

indeed rbud. it is just another way of politely saying close chat if you don't want clues in first hour

saphy, why though? is flip becoming a flop?

1:25 am

mrp I think some feel they are more entitled to their opinion then others unfortunately

1:25 am

and I am not pointing fingers - it all depends on the conversation

1:26 am

I'm sure things have changed a lot since Babble began, am I right?

1:26 am

good question LOL

1:26 am

they have changed and yet remained the same I think

I don't put clues up at any particular time, and it has been great for some, and not great for others. so it is just about how one wants to play the game, IMHO

1:26 am

no doubt some grumbled every time something changed, folks are just that way.

1:27 am

we have been invaded by trolls thoughout the years

1:27 am

some argued with them, some ignored them

1:27 am

and then the two groups argued over if the trolls should be ignored or not LOL

1:28 am

Just human nature I guess

1:28 am

well, everyone got spoiled with the clues list popping up quickly after flip, and now we're having to go without sometimes, which I don't mind at all. More of a challenge, and the group always rallies and works together, fun to watch.

i luved it when nutty used to bait the trolls! that was funny!

1:29 am

I agree - I use the list when i am no longer flying through

exactly rbud, and if they do that in the first hour or 4th hour or 11th hour, that is up to them

1:29 am

lol mrp yeah it was

1:30 am

no one forces anyone to use or not use the list or to even look at the chat

1:30 am

I thought it was a hoot when folks would post strings of "blank" chat to give trolls no time to talk, lol!

indeed saphy

1:30 am

But that argument will always go on

1:31 am

quite the strategy.

1:31 am

yes sometimes it was hard to tell which was the troll LOL

during our cooler months, it is more functional for me to babble at flip... so clues go up earlier then. During these summer months, I can't get on here until later, so then clues will come later

I am glad that the change up in clue list being posted is ok

1:32 am

as an "old timer" I would like to thank MRP for the clues - you can dip in if you want Just close down the chat if you don't want clues what is the problem ? Finally we have had a lot more laughs than tears in the last few years so thanks for that :)

1:32 am

and the clues are always appreciated no matter when they show up

1:32 am

I'm just grateful you took it on, mrp, thanks so much!

hi mari!! and thank you girls

1:33 am

group hug :)

(((hugs))) all round

1:33 am

yay! ((((((hug!)))))))

1:33 am

I'm getting too old to get off this high horse lol

1:34 am

{{{{{{{All}}}}}}}}}}}

oh mari, my soap box if firmly fitted where the sun don't shine either!! LOL!!

1:35 am

LOL maybe everyone needs to vent - have an icon day where they put up icons of things that make them angry LOL

1:36 am

or politcally incorrect day! heehee!

1:36 am

haha yeah

yes! I would do that for sure! LOL

1:37 am

LOL

1:37 am

politics is not a favorite subject of mine, tis true, tired of it on FB, too much of it there. but here, so many nationalities, it's kind of pointless, in a way.

yes, it is incredibly different for every nationality as to what they are comfortable with.

as with every person too

1:40 am

agreed

1:40 am

i have seen opinions here that were 120 % different than mine - but I keep quiet

1:41 am

to me this is just not the place - but some enjoy discussing it

1:41 am

well, I know I should be interested in what goes on politically, worldwide, but I guess I'm not, really. shame on me! :\

1:41 am

BUT if you do discuss it then you should not be upset when others give their opinion

1:42 am

otherwise - just ignore it :)

1:42 am

politics religion and sports - taboo for pleasant conversation LOL

1:42 am

agreed! I just stay out of it. Or start a whole different subject that runs in between, love that about babble, you can follow several lines of thought at once, lol!

yep, i follow on with particular conversations with people that i am interested in talking to as well

if some people think i ignore them, it is because i DO!

1:44 am

hahaha

hang on... ham, mushrooms, pepperoni, olives, anchovy....

1:46 am

in the PB?? and all i found was crumbs

1:47 am

yes, yes, yes, yes, no!

my friend is just letting me know what she wants on her pizza

don't chat! i have to order... brb

1:47 am

lol

lol!!!

1:47 am

silence falls...

1:48 am

it's almost time for the fie-minute hiccup, anyway, lol!

Ah, Brooklyn. The borough of my birth

You gave Peri an earwig

8:27 am

8:27 am

No, no Peri. Having that song in your head is detrimental to your mental health. : (

8:27 am

Bichon, my dad was there during the war and right after.

8:27 am

This place is full of military kids.

8:27 am

I was at the worlds fair too (although we had to drive there from New Jersey)

8:29 am

10:08 am

yes.... usually spelled with an i

10:08 am

Oooh yeah Nonnie, a mad combo!

10:08 am

(not at the start, but rtaher than sometimes vowel)

10:09 am

a + dale evans cowboy hubby .... to start

10:09 am

OK, i am down to ty5 and ye5, and need to go do some laundry. Any clues welcome.

10:32 am

They seem to being doing great! 3 year old granddaughter got to meet him last night...The first thing she said was, "Why isn't he talking?"

10:33 am

Gotta restart the server. We'll be back online in a couple minutes.

10:33 am

Yep, she wants an instant playmate so a newborn isn't much fun.

10:33 am

TY, Dr_God

10:40 am

nice to meet God

10:42 am

ha, got the 8, thanks chat!! nbs and nbt (and 10 words left)

10:43 am

help with the 8?

10:44 am

ar8, past tense of ar6, let me figure out how to clue it...

10:45 am

i don't have ar6

10:45 am

think "...an**** his head with oil...", replace the n with an r, and replace the i with the sometimes vowel. That gets you the 6.

10:45 am

then past tense for the 8.

10:47 am

ty!!!!

10:47 am

yw! (you see why it was tough to clue :-)

10:48 am

even the dictionary has trouble with it

10:49 am

The dictionary has trouble with many Babble words : )

10:50 am

apparently it is used by Shakespeare in King Lear (found it in Dr. Johnson's Dictionary)

10:50 am

usually spelled with an i

10:50 am

Saint Withold footed thrice the wold, He met the night-mare, and her name told, Bid her alight, and her troth plight, And ar**** thee, witch, ar**** thee right.

10:52 am

Thanks uusue. I would never have gotten those without your clue.

10:52 am

i hate it when my troth plight

10:52 am

Well, I got it from a clue earlier - not a word that I use very often (although I do recognize it as having been in the grid before)

10:53 am

Some of Will's vocabulary just never caught on. ;)

10:53 am

meaning similar to "begone!"

10:54 am

Pickles, I have trouble with my troth plighting too. : P

10:55 am

evidently there's something in traditional wedding vows about plightling her troth my mom used to always make fun of

10:56 am

If we were all fluent in Shakespeare, foreign currency and obscure medical and scientific terms, we would be Babble geniuses!

10:57 am

if only...

10:57 am

well, I've obviously had my own troubles with troth plighting, having been married and divorced three times...oh well :-)

10:57 am

"ar****!" was what I said to all three of them after a while :-)

10:59 am

hi, all

10:59 am

hi, pam

10:59 am

:)

10:59 am

ra6/36?

11:01 am

no idea, pickles.

ra 6/36 builds off the ra 4/9 and 5/20-pt of the 5/20

11:03 am

i need the ra5/20

11:03 am

thanks, luv

11:03 am

one who's been shaved, pickles. :)

po 7/56 please?

11:04 am

Sue, that is just because none of them were worthy of you. : )

11:04 am

pope, luv

11:05 am

luv need double letter at the end

11:06 am

still can't get it pam

thanks pam & Pickles

add a cons. to the ra 4/9

11:07 am

ye

oops, I mean a vowel not a cons.

11:07 am

ends in a row

11:08 am

TY! down to 6 all T words

11:08 am

thanks, molly, I like to think so :-)

11:09 am

me down to 3, two of them are t

11:09 am

10 left here, I am doing too many other things at the same time...

11:09 am

rozy

11:09 am

oops, that was supposed to be yw earlier. And glad you got it, pickles.

11:09 am

Hello to my fellow babblers! How is everyone doing today

11:09 am

sorry!

11:10 am

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

11:10 am

hi, min! You are looking especially cheerful today :-)

11:10 am

Hi, Minver

11:11 am

Thanks uusue2! I actually did today icon theme for once.

11:11 am

R's Rescinded! 3 left

11:12 am

11:12 am

well, perhaps SpongeBob exists in some far-off galaxy - in which case he could be in my icon :-)

11:12 am

hi, scrabs!

11:12 am

Hello Scrabbler! How are you doing? Welcome back here.

11:12 am

Hello Professor Sue

11:13 am

On phone with my mother now. I am listening.

11:13 am

soon to be professor emerita :-)

11:13 am

Yay for you.

11:13 am

ah yes, as I recall your phone calls with your mother involve a lot of listening.

11:14 am

The quintet is gorgeous, Sue! Are you retiring? And, remind me, what do you teach?

11:14 am

Yes. We're in the 1950's now. Moving along slowly.

11:14 am

I am retiring at the end of June, pam, and I teach physics.

11:14 am

Congratulations, I think. Cool.

11:14 am

Any plans for retirement, besides relaxation?

11:15 am

relaxation comes first, then maybe some travel

11:15 am

I do have a lot of reading to catch up on...

11:15 am

Good for you. You deserve it.

11:15 am

...and there is a whole university here, with concerts, plays, and all kinds of things I haven't had time to participate in.

11:16 am

Work gets in the way of life.

11:16 am

fab!

11:17 am

and we could go to the arboretum in the middle of the week! (we have a membership but haven't been since the winter started)

11:18 am

uncle! my last 3 are all to5's

11:18 am

Go Pickles go!

11:18 am

hmmm, I have 6 left but only two of them can be to5...

11:19 am

(don't know if they are or not, don't have a list yet)

11:19 am

I found po7 by myself.

11:19 am

good work sCRAB

11:19 am

me too, scrabs! Are we good, or what?

11:20 am

5 now, should I list?

11:20 am

Well, it is sort of staring at us there.

11:20 am

Well, are you stuck?

11:20 am

apparently not, now I am down to 4.

11:20 am

Go uusue2 go!

11:20 am

Sounds like you have lots of fun plans for retirement, Sue. Enjoy! The University will be minus one very devoted professor.

11:20 am

and three of them are 4-letter words (the other one is a 5), so how hard could that be?

11:21 am

hard

11:21 am

I could come back and teach if I wanted (and if they want me to); I might do that from time to time if there's a fun course to do

11:22 am

How is your Physics of Sports course going?

11:22 am

Fireworks

11:22 am

yay mr bob!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

11:22 am

Congratulations Mr. Bob on your fireworks!Good for you

11:23 am

Yay Bob!

11:23 am

it's going quite well, scrabs, I am having fun with it and the students seem to be enjoying it too.

11:23 am

ool course.

11:23 am

*Cool

11:24 am

done!

11:24 am

I had them turn in their proposals for their semester projects; the honors program has an enrichment budget so I am buying each one of them a book about their chosen sport (or a book about the physics of lots of different sports, if there wasn't a single book)

11:24 am

yay pickles!

11:24 am

why is the last one always an easy word

11:24 am

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

11:24 am

Yay P!

11:24 am

Neat idea, Sue.

11:24 am

(those were pickles' extra exclamation points, which got truncated when I hit return too soon)

11:24 am

Congratulations Picklesny on your fireworks! Way go go!

11:24 am

I wish i could start on tommorows puzz

11:24 am

they are very excited, scrabs!

11:26 am

ha, got the on5, only three 4-letter words left.

11:27 am

*looking for on5**

11:27 am

That is why I save my last word for later Picklesny.So I'm not done early, however, still a bummer to have to wait.

11:27 am

That on 5/12 word ends with the animal pest Scrabbler.

11:27 am

doesn't happen for me very often. guess i'll have to do some house work:(

11:27 am

Got it.

11:28 am

fireworks!

11:28 am

Yay Sue!

11:28 am

pretty busy for the rest of the day - memorial service for a retired colleague this afternoon, then we have tickets for a play tonight, and at some point I need to do some shopping

11:29 am

Congratulations uusue2 on your fireworks! Hooray for U

11:29 am

9 left for me. I'll cross-country ski soon--it's been snowing since 5 pm yesterday.

11:30 am

My mother is still talking away on the phone.

11:31 am

the arboretum will rent cross country skis whenever there's been 4" of snow - but we haven't had much snow this winter and never when I am free :-(

11:31 am

(my old skis are long gone...)

11:32 am

We have had a mild winter. I XC-skied 3 times in Jan, and snowshoed 3 times in Jan, but this is our first snow in 5-6 wks.

11:33 am

Usually I can do my snowsports Fri-Sat-Sun. It has been an odd winter.

11:33 am

ar8 clue anyone?

11:33 am

Tough word to clue...hm.

11:33 am

pt of ar6

11:34 am

LOL clue for the ar6 then? LOL

11:34 am

(which I clued a while ago but you'd have to go back to the entire log to find it)

11:34 am

ar + Kids like to play with t**s. + The college I we** to was in Buffalo.

11:34 am

Oy 4/11! Oy 4/11! Oy 4/11! Listen up! I can't de 4/7 it, I still used the list to finish the grid.Here is a story of clues. Somebody paid for my pro status as a gi 4/9 and I'm so very grateful! Now I'm enra4/5ured by the game & other babblers. It was a good thing this game wasn't around when I was a te4/4ager. I never would have done my homework. Husband would like to ra4/9 the website from my favorites, but I will not let him. I tell him if he tries playing babble just for a te5/14 bit he'll love it. But hubby te 4/5s to like non-word games better.Hubby ne4/5s the computer.If I do not give it to him, we will get into a ti 4/10. I have to 5/16 with idea of getting another computer, but can’t afford it now.I didn't edit this story so there might be some ty 4/7s. I'm going to run to the store to rent Sex in the Ci4/7. I will be back in fi5/26 minutes to chat & clue.

11:34 am

Here it is: think "...an**** his head with oil...", replace the n with an r, and replace the i with the sometimes vowel. That gets you the 6.

11:35 am

ar 6/24 word is a + I drive a rolls ***ce plus *nt is a picnic pestSugrraleona and hello there! Welcome to the puzzle.

11:35 am

12:13 pm

Taken all day, on and off, need more practise. Thank you for your help

12:15 pm

You are welcome. Good to take all day on short grids like these xeiluj. Then it is less of a wait for the grid to flip.

12:16 pm

Hello Eva! How are you? Sorry I missed your entrance b-4

hello!

12:16 pm

Hello redturtlehead! How are you doing? Welcome to grid

12:16 pm

only been here a few weeks, what do you mean by the flip?

I'm good Minver.

the grid flips xei at midnight-ish (different times in different zones). we get a new grid then!

12:17 pm

There is a new grid every 24 hours. Grid changes for me at 1:00 in the morning. Babble time is CST I think though

12:17 pm

Hi all (I'm one of the lurkers who hasn't been around for a while:)

Hello Yarn!

12:18 pm

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

I am struggling with finding my last 14....

12:19 pm

Hi Red. I have some left to find too. But I'm only in here on and off during the day. Good luck to you.

well, I have not finished in a long time, so I might not.

12:21 pm

wanted to thank everyone for clues,between those and lickety I finally managed to finish one! This can be addicting, should upgrade to pro but then I'd be spending more time here...but I like such a friendly place

12:21 pm

thsa

12:21 pm

I have posted story of clues in my profile redturtlehead.

heading there Minver...

12:22 pm

Congratulations yarn lady on finishing grid. Good for you

ahh first word was one I was missing!!!

and Congratulations Yarn! I admit, I hesistated a long itme before going pro, but gosh that was like 14.00 several years ago now, so I am sure I have gotten 14.00 of enjoyment by now.

12:23 pm

Minveryork -you do such fun stories and everyone is so quick with clues, I'll have to do a lot more reading

12:25 pm

It's nice to see so many of the same people still chatting away, I must have been away from here at least 6 months, thanks Red

I tend to come and go. I was gone for 3-4 months, but now am back...

down to 11.

12:28 pm

Thanks for the welcome back, now I need to disappear and work on crafts. happy babbling all.

bye yarn.

12:30 pm

Hello all

hello Sadie.

12:32 pm

Hi Sadie

12:34 pm

Goodbye yarn lady! I'll see you tomorrow in the chat log.

12:34 pm

Hello sadie52! How are you doing? Welcome to the chog.

ooh down to two. I admit...I got the list.

12:36 pm

Go redturtlehead go!

12:37 pm

46? shoot. this won't distract me near as long as i want it to.

12:37 pm

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

12:37 pm

heya min

12:44 pm

Hello everyone. I just remembered that I still have 5 words to find. This may be a small grid but it's a tough little b*gger! :-)

12:45 pm

Hello Jacula! I am saving my last word for later on today.

12:45 pm

Hi Min. I used to do that... until the day my Beloved put it in for me. I felt like someone had torn the last page out of my book! :-(

12:46 pm

LOL Jacula!Well I don't have to worry about that. Hubby won't go near babble with a 10 foot pole! Wish he would.

12:48 pm

My chap's dyslexic and doesn't play. His 'condition' is often a help when spelling some of the weirder words that get chucked into the mix.

clue for the to 5,22?

12:51 pm

a gem, red

12:51 pm

A to 5/22 is a white colored mineral used to make rings.

ahhh thanks!

ad that is fireworks!

12:53 pm

ok last three columns gray. have a feeling that was the easy part...

12:53 pm

One word left to find - an 'a5'. Hmmm...

12:53 pm

Congratulations redturtlehead on fireworks! Good for U!

12:53 pm

congrats red!

12:53 pm

Well done, red!

12:53 pm

a + mr. bennett, jac?

12:53 pm

I am off to take the dog on a walk.I will be back later on.

12:53 pm

I have an a5 left, my last word. I already know what it is

12:53 pm

LA - no, got that one. Thanks.

12:54 pm

'Bye Min.

:D

12:54 pm

That at 5/16 word is almost like the at 5/14 word Jacula

12:56 pm

Got it! Thanks Min. FIREWORKS! :-)

12:56 pm

huzzah jac!

12:58 pm

I'd better be off now. Happy Babbling all!x

12:59 pm

what are the stats for the 7/8? i assume a or o? don't need clues yet

12:59 pm

and now i must head out my friends,but before i go,i shall leave you with crossy,s tidbit of the day!!!!

1:00 pm

Mapmakers will often insert a tiny piece of incorrect information in their maps to prevent the illegal reproduction of their work. Called a "copyright trap," the fake text might be a bogus street name or even the mapmakers' initials hidden in the corner of a city park.

1:00 pm

tc all and happy babbling..poink!

1:00 pm

interesting crossy, have a good day

1:03 pm

po 7/56, ar8/55

1:03 pm

cool thanks bog

1:03 pm

yw

1:22 pm

amazing- there are no definitions for the ar 8/55 or ar6/24

1:34 pm

alt spelling of archaic "begone"

hello babblers!

2:15 pm

Hi 72 Temple Owl!How are you doing?Welcome to the grid

i am fine min and you?

2:18 pm

Hi TO

2:18 pm

I am doing ok. I'm saving my last word for later on today.

hi molly

2:19 pm

Does anybody here know about doing system restore on a computer? Crosshair was here earlier, but has exited.

no,sorry

2:20 pm

I will wait to ask again when crosshair comes back here.

2:21 pm

Min, click OPEN, ALL PROGRAMS, ACCESSORIES, SYSTEM TOOLS and then SYSTEM RESTORE.

2:22 pm

Then let it guide you through the SYSTEM RESTORE and choose a previous date to restore your system to. Hope that helped.

2:23 pm

I did that MollyL and it will not let me restore the system

i can see these last 7 are going to be like pulling teeth.

2:24 pm

Once I picked start point I clicked on "next" and nothing happened. I believe my virus is stopping it from working.

2:24 pm

Min, have you defragmented your computer and cleaned out all the cookies and book marks? Usually if it will not let you "system restore" it means you have some problem with your computer.

2:24 pm

hi folks

2:24 pm

Go 72 Temple Owl go!

2:25 pm

Hello welki! How are you doing today? Welcome to puzzle

hello welk

2:25 pm

yours is a fairly new computer, min -- right?

2:26 pm

I know I have problem with my computer. That is why I wanted to do system restore. I thought it might get rid of the virus, but virus seems to have effected the system restore option also. I guess I gotta bring it in

2:27 pm

if you've got your files backed up, min, why not try a full restore back to factory defaults?

2:28 pm

(instead of up to a certain point in time)

2:28 pm

I think it is 2 or 3 years old.But it is a work computer and connected to the system at work. Use it at home though so it isn't connected to the system at work so antivirus software does not work as well at my housel

2:29 pm

Hi, I'm an irregular here. Got only 46 words tonite, how many more do I need for fws please?

2:29 pm

you've got them all, arual *fireworks*

2:29 pm

Laptop wouldn't let me restore past a certain time welki.

2:30 pm

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

2:30 pm

thanks welki, does anything happen, never got them all before

2:30 pm

There are only 46 words in the grid today. It's very small

2:30 pm

*looks at molly, looks at min* methinks you're hooped, kid - time for a service call (unless crossy has a trick or two up his sleeve)

2:30 pm

arual, if you're a paid member ($15, i think), you get an animated icon of fireworks - if you want a celebratory cocktail, you have to bring your own :)

methinks i had one too many celebratory cocktailsl last night. i have no ambition today

2:31 pm

what were you drinking, owl?

gin and tonic

2:32 pm

Yeah,that is what I figured.Fortunately I can bring it to work and they will fix it at no cost. Unfortunately, that means I have no computer to babble on at home.

2:32 pm

thanks got a glass or red stuff with me right now. Methinks that might have helped get to 46

2:32 pm

Thank you MollyL and welki for your advice and your help

2:32 pm

*toasts Arual on first fireworks*

2:32 pm

sorry i couldn't offer any help, min

and it is fireworksforme,see yo tomorrow. if i get some workdone i will permit myslef weekend babbling

2:33 pm

Congratulations Arual on finishing the grid. Good for you

2:33 pm

welkie, actually second. First was about 2 years ago, sorry not a regular.

2:33 pm

and owl, what were you celebrating?

2:33 pm

Congratulations 72 Temple Owl on fireworks! Way to go!

2:34 pm

no apology necessary - some play when they get the itch, some itch to play :-)

2:34 pm

Sorry I couldn't help Min. Hope you can get your computer fixed.

2:34 pm

Bye 72 Temple Owl! I'll see you tomorrow in the chat log.

2:34 pm

Thanks MollyL

2:34 pm

Thank you Minveryork, here's good health to all

2:35 pm

Of course my husband thinks I got the virus from Babble.

welkii went to a zydeco for mardi gras

2:36 pm

ohhh nice, owl!! between dancing to the zydeco and gin, no wonder no ambition today!!

2:36 pm

Didn't have any drinks and I still have no ambition today.

omg it was a blast, a great band

and i am getting the hang of it

2:37 pm

all i've done today is strip the bed and laundry -- and dishes. that kind of day all over, i guess

2:37 pm

what' s the name of the band?

2:37 pm

i used to love listening to beausoleil

2:38 pm

Actually, I'm washing bed sheets right now welki. I did do some house cleaning the other day. First time in awhile.

and the costumes! some werereally outlandish. aroynt 6 24 aroynted 8 55 atony 5 14 atop 4 5 atopy 5 16 city 4 7 dene 4 5 dent 4 5 deny 4 7 eyed 4 7 eyen 4 6 eyne 4 6 fifty 5 26 gift 4 9 need 4 5 neon 4 4 nota 4 4 ontic 5 12 pontiff 7 56 pony 4 7 rapt 4 5 rato 4 4 raze 4 9 ropy 4 7 rota 4 4 taro 4 4 teen 4 4 teeny 5 14 tend 4 5 tent 4 4 tenty 5 14 tiff 4 10 tonne 5 10 tony 4 6 tora 4 4 toyed 5 16 tyee 4 6 tyne 4 6 tyned 5 16 typo 4 7 yente

2:38 pm

it's tiresome work, min - for me, anyway

OMG

2:38 pm

well done, owl *lol*

*slinks off*

2:38 pm

but the name of the band was .....

2:39 pm

getcherass back here - tell me the name of the band or i won't let go!

2:39 pm

LOL! now I have to battle my inner devil telling me to peek!

2:39 pm

In that case, guess my story of clues is not ne4/5ed now

2:39 pm

thanks for my last two TO. :) fireweeds

2:39 pm

Congratulations mixi6 on your fireworks!Hooray for you!

2:39 pm

nobody forces you to read chat - if someone sees the list, they can scroll, scroll away

2:40 pm

TO: we are missing the same last A word!

oh no, min, your sotries arelovely. i am so embarrassed

2:40 pm

Hello jmitch! How are you doing today? Welcome to grid.

2:40 pm

name of the band

i was trying to get this to weilk http://www.allonsdanser.org/

2:40 pm

yay!

2:41 pm

lots of bands at that site - did they all play last night?

curley taylor.but you can play with thejukebox

2:41 pm

LOLl! Your list will help someone else who has no ambition today too. Unfortunately I am already almost done here.

2:42 pm

thanks!! i'll love it

2:42 pm

traditional zydeco?

2:42 pm

I'm doing well....I peeked at the "clues" TO and I are missing the same words

2:42 pm

hi, mitch :)

2:43 pm

and good day to you WELK and MIN

2:43 pm

mitch, do you live near the coast?

he was but he mixes in a little funka nd even played a soil =line dance tune! it was funny, only about half the folks got it , the other half just left the floor and stared

2:43 pm

I do.

and the washboard player and another came down to the floor and danced with us

2:44 pm

if you were an american living in canada who was looking for a retirement location near fishing (freshwater, mainly) but loved the coast, where in mississippi would you guide this old broad?

2:44 pm

WELK: yes, I do.

2:45 pm

looking more for a small piece of property or a teeny weeny cottage

welki are you coming back?

2:45 pm

i hope to someday

2:45 pm

The entire Gulf Coast is good for fishing of all types. But of course we have the hurricane threat to worry about. You can get land pretty reasonable if you move inland

2:46 pm

i'm from the east coast originally - hurricanes are part of my early life

why not the chesapeake?

2:46 pm

lol - mitch - the miss. coast is loooong - no special place or area that you'd recommend?

2:46 pm

but insurance companies are making buying/building difficult if you are "too close" to the gulf

2:47 pm

virginia'd be nice, but very very expensive .. and the fishing is better in mississippi

2:47 pm

LONG? It's only 60 some miles from Alabama to Louisiana. My personal favorite town down here is Pass Christian.

2:47 pm

although the chesapeake - crabs crabs crabs

2:49 pm

gotta love it - the map i'm looking at makes the distance seem much longer. now that's a good quality - flawed depth perception :)

2:49 pm

or Bay St. Louis.

2:50 pm

but both towns have had repeated hits from massive storms (Camille and Katrina)

ok i have done enough damage for today. sorry all. welki, listen to "Free your mind"on the jukebox, it is more representative of the band.bye all

2:51 pm

will take a look at those towns, mitch (thanks) and you take care, owl

2:53 pm

( will also look at pascagoula, if only to see what jimmy buffet was talking about)

2:53 pm

Miss Gulf Coast is good because we have within a 100 mile radius: New Orleans for fun, Pensacola for aviation buffs, Mobile for battleship lovers.....seafood, cajun food, fishing and hunting

2:54 pm

heh...I work in Pascagoula....not much to look at...small town USA

2:55 pm

*packing up* husband is military/naval/aviation fan - me, i love the food and music - we both fish

2:55 pm

On this end of the coast I would recommend Ocean Springs.....nice little bedroom community outside Biloxi (that's pronounced Bil-uh-x-ee!)

2:55 pm

not Bil-ah-x-ee....

2:56 pm

<-- old air force gal .. lots of pals down in biloxi

2:57 pm

i retired down here from USN.

2:57 pm

but - if we were to want a place out of town (i guess more inland then) where we could have lots of privacy ... where would we start to look?

2:58 pm

maybe on a bass lake *dreaming*

2:58 pm

hahaha .. probably all lakes down there are bass lakes

several years ago my son was stationed at hurlburt....man I miss going down there!

2:58 pm

hey mcurl - nice to 'see' you!

2:58 pm

almost all the inland "towns" are too small to show up on a map. Hattiesburg is a college town near an army base with lakes in the area.

2:59 pm

mcurl; Hurlburt is right around the corner (sort of)

I've been lurking and watching the nationwide race....what a finish

3:03 pm

what are you watching? i thought daytona's tomorrow

3:03 pm

clue for oy 4/11?

3:03 pm

shhhh....don't tell me! I'm at work and gonna watch it tonite

3:04 pm

welki: today's race was the Nationwide race at Daytona...tomorrow is the SPRINT Daytona 500

won't tell you who won but just know that the announcers jinxed a bunch of drivers toward the end of the race and some drivers got screwed over

3:04 pm

green, white, checker finish?

no but under caution

3:07 pm

*looking at real estate listings* nice houses in pass christian

3:11 pm

some of the listings in bay st. louis are sad

3:12 pm

really? I haven't been to BSL since Katrina.

3:13 pm

one i looked at said that the value is in the land, that the property hadn't been cleaned since Katrina and that the heirs are anxious to sell

3:13 pm

another has a photo of the pilings you'd start to build on

3:14 pm

back to pass christian :)

3:14 pm

that story is played over and over down here. insurance issues drove many people off of family lands. just to expensive to rebuild to new standards

3:20 pm

if we're able to, maybe the best thing to do will be to take some time and just travel - i think we'll know when we find where we want to land. we can live just about anywhere, just so much to choose from, even with financial constraints

3:21 pm

would like to be the cliche - snow bird

3:21 pm

winter down here and summer up north!

3:21 pm

yeppers - now wouldn't that be the cat's ass?

3:45 pm

Begone!...anyway BBL

3:46 pm

Congrats Maggie!!! Yay

3:46 pm

3:46 pm

Brother Wind is very busy today. He's blowing just as hard on this side of the planet.

3:46 pm

whoo hoo maggie!!!!!

3:46 pm

love the icon molls

3:47 pm

*throws silver and gold confetti at maggie*

3:48 pm

whoo hooo i greyed the bottom two rows!

3:49 pm

Hi all!

3:49 pm

hi ya nrkii! *waves madly*

3:50 pm

hi all! back from (long) memorial service, off shortly to shop for groceries - life goes on-

3:50 pm

hi uu

3:50 pm

hi, jmc and nrkii!

3:50 pm

hi uu

3:50 pm

hope it was moving as well as long

3:50 pm

jmc, good to see you!

3:50 pm

where you been nrkii

3:51 pm

too busy to babble, I guess

3:51 pm

it was, very much so, jmc - a woman who lived a full life and was very much loved

3:51 pm

*GASP*

3:51 pm

but came back a few days ago because I missed my old friends

3:51 pm

oh uu, that is nice to hear

3:52 pm

I'm taking it easy today, so I came in to tackle a nice big grid... LOL

3:52 pm

oops you missed the week of 350+ ones

3:53 pm

small and not too awful, this one is (although I had a lot of help from the chat)

3:53 pm

see this is what argues for being able to go back a couple of days

3:53 pm

I hear TO was very generous earlier

3:53 pm

I finished the grid pretty fast today, so I didn't get to chat. Decided to stick around for a few to say HI.

3:54 pm

Thanks JMC. Glad you like the icon. I had the misfortune of being up around flip time and read some chat that disturbed me. Babble friends should be able to say that political icons are not cool. And no one should make comments about how the intentionally ignore people. Do that if you need to, but don't make comments about it. Just my two cents.

3:54 pm

i am still bumbbling through

3:55 pm

well i live through the patriotic ones so people should live through my peace ones--never got a complaint tho

3:55 pm

or do they mean particular candidates? *shudder* is no place safe?

3:55 pm

I don't know, Molly. I try very hard to not get into politics or religion here. My views are my views, and I don't want to throw down with people over them in a friendly place. :)

3:56 pm

As soon as the conversation gets too political, that's my cue to take a break.

3:56 pm

I don't mind the icons. But I don't want to have the chats. Oh, and hi!

3:56 pm

i try to keep most of my politics to myself but everyone knows what i believe in

3:56 pm

The most I might do is quietly suggest that not everyone has the same views.

3:56 pm

hi pam

3:56 pm

Pam, I agree.

3:57 pm

so i feel no reason to make a big point about it in the chat

3:57 pm

I like your icon too, molly - every once in a while we get a clunker here, but the vast majority of the babblers are so nice! It is quite a community - just because we have a village idiot or two doesn't detract from that

3:57 pm

jmc, you are quietly devout :)

3:57 pm

:-)

3:58 pm

Well said, nrkii!

3:58 pm

It was an anti-Obama icon and someone politely suggested that it was inappropriate. I agree. Then the conversation turned to who chats with who and who ignores who and it seemed very unfriendly. No more looking at chat at flip time for me.

3:58 pm

stats for the Y or am i being dumb?

3:58 pm

and I mostly keep my politics to myself too, I think, although I do speak up for science now and then (which ought to be nonpolitical anyway)

3:58 pm

the main rule I think people should follow here is just not to criticize each other... there's no reason for it -- we've had too many injured souls here

3:58 pm

ye5/14

3:58 pm

jmc--stats or clue?

3:58 pm

it's a 5/14

3:58 pm

well there are people who don't talk much to me and it makes no matter to me

3:59 pm

just the stats ty both

3:59 pm

"Too many injured souls here"...well put Nrkii

3:59 pm

indeed, nrkii - every once in a while someone shares their story - people here have gone through a lot of pain but it usually doesn't show - even when you meet someone in person you don't know what they are going through

3:59 pm

ty ty

3:59 pm

I wonder why anyone would openly object to content in someone's icon though, even if they disagreed with it. Why bother?

3:59 pm

<--- is a fan of cutting everyone some slack

4:00 pm

too true so i try to great everyone and say please and thank you to everyone who tries to help me

4:00 pm

I am with you on the icon, nrkii. No reason to snipe.

4:00 pm

mostly if you don't like an icon don't click on it

4:00 pm

The flip side of your icon, Molly, is to try not to BE the bad apple. LOL. Heaven knows I try! (not always successful)

4:00 pm

there is one person whose icon I find offensive but I don't say anything; I just don't chat with them (they're not in the chat much when I'm on anyway)

4:01 pm

I think icons need to be appropriate. On most chat forums they are moderated. They are not here. Hence the comments.

4:01 pm

uu, I hope it's not mine! Do you hate Nellie Oleson? You can admit it if you do... I won't hold it against you... :)

4:01 pm

anyone have a clue for the oy 4/11?

4:01 pm

i think i sometimes hurt molls feelings when i am trying to tease her. . . .

4:01 pm

<---Loves Nellie : )

4:01 pm

Eh, Molly, but then it's just inviting a fight. Why bother? To each his/her own.

4:02 pm

think court language holly

4:02 pm

Another Nellie lover found!!

4:02 pm

i never watched the show

4:03 pm

I might comment if I saw someone's icon was not PG-rated, because we have kids on here sometimes. Otherwise, I don't care.

4:03 pm

JMC, just for the record, I have been going through some tough stuff lately. If I have begged off seeming too sensitive, that is why. I don't whine and kvetch about my personal life here.

4:03 pm

GASP!!!!

4:03 pm

lol, nrkii, I am so out of it I don't even recognize yours! and it doesn't matter which one it is; I won't be addressing it directly as I don't think I could do so in a civil manner. So I choose not to say anything.

4:03 pm

read the books when i was a young whipper snapper

4:03 pm

tks jmc ---

4:03 pm

4:03 pm

4:03 pm

4:03 pm

4:03 pm

The gasp was for JMC never watching LHOP

4:03 pm

((((molly)))) sorry you are having a hard time!!

4:03 pm

I would leave if icons were moderated. They are personal expressions and as long as the thumbnail is g-rated, well, that's all that matters in my mind...

4:04 pm

tks jmc

4:04 pm

well i am sorry if you are hurting and please know that whatever i type it is never meant to be mean

4:04 pm

nrkii--i didn't see your pg-rated comment. Once again, great minds, LOL

4:04 pm

haha holly i am glad someone besides me did that!

4:04 pm

Pam. :)

4:05 pm

yw pam

4:05 pm

Sorry to hear that Molly. I hope things get better soon.

4:05 pm

makes you fee liike a total ass................

4:05 pm

oops sorry that was yw holly

4:05 pm

I would not advocate for moderation of icons either; if I have a problem with someone's icon that is my problem, not theirs.

4:05 pm

(imagine if I had to give up my Nellie icon... sad Nrk)

4:05 pm

anytime you ne** to escape come stay with me and we will drink guiness together molls

4:06 pm

hi holly, looks like your cat got hold of the keyboard :-)

4:06 pm

i know holly i was having a terrible time with my enter key for a while!

4:06 pm

nbt

4:06 pm

<------ And right on cue, here is the Guinness truck!!

4:06 pm

wish I could bame the cat :)

4:07 pm

yay soodle and guinness!!

4:07 pm

Go JMC!!!

4:07 pm

what does the 7 start with?

4:07 pm

haha bring it on soodle!

4:07 pm

(Speaking of inappropriate icons..)

4:07 pm

po

4:07 pm

po

4:07 pm

The 7 is a PO Jmc.

4:07 pm

Okay folks, no moderation of icons? Really? Even if they are sexually suggestive or offensive in political or religious ways?

4:07 pm

Oh Soodle, you are my hero. Any Smithwicks in that truck, by any chance?

4:07 pm

is that an answer to my request are you all making editorial comments? ;-)

4:08 pm

BTW, Hello everybody

4:08 pm

Hi, soodle

4:08 pm

Molly, as long as they are PG, I'm fine with them.

4:08 pm

Offensive is in the eye of the beholder.

4:08 pm

i am okay with no moderation

4:08 pm

hi Soodle

4:08 pm

Icons being PG means someone has to moderate them.

4:09 pm

that is where I would speak up, if someone had something not PG

4:09 pm

otherwise, I just let it go

4:09 pm

or we can all behave like grownups

4:09 pm

bingo, jmc

4:09 pm

yepper

4:09 pm

I think that if someone were to put up a patently offensive icon, we could ask Dr_God to remove it - that's not the same as automatic moderation, though (which would mean they would have to be approved in advance - a huge task!)

4:09 pm

i want pontificate to be in the grid

4:10 pm

i think uu has the right idea

4:10 pm

jmc, did you get the 7?

4:10 pm

can I "like" uu's comment?

4:10 pm

not yet nrkii still monkeying

4:10 pm

ooh, jmc, you are almost in the PB!!!!

4:10 pm

i do, nrkii... like, like, like

4:10 pm

I'm spinning my wheels here. I'm pretty sure if someone put up an icon that said "I HATE ____" (insert racial slur of your choice) people would find it offensive.

4:10 pm

you are so close, jmc

who is hego i want to thank them so much? an hi everyone

4:10 pm

yes, Molly, that is true

someone in babble

4:11 pm

hi babble

4:11 pm

but that is where the grey area heads more towards the edges

4:11 pm

hi babblelady!

4:11 pm

exactly, molly, and I am pretty sure (from some second-hand correspondence) that Dr_God would remove such an icon if asked

4:11 pm

are you part of fb babble?

yes

4:11 pm

are you part of the babble fb page?

ithink so

4:12 pm

i have always found dr god very reasonable

4:12 pm

anyway the vast, vast majority of us do act like sensible adults, at least around here (well, except occasionally when we get a bit silly), and seem to be able to deal with each other as such. Which is quite refreshing.

4:12 pm

I think if a racial slur appeared, we'd all clamor at once, ask if the person were a troll, and write dr god. Slurs of any kind are not even remotely tolerated.

4:12 pm

Again, this is all just me. I understood why someone found the anti-Obama icon inappropriate. And I am not an Obama fan. There are things that just don't belong here. And comments in chat about ignoring people that don't belong either. It makes it a much less friendly place.

4:12 pm

when i was worried that my stalker had followed me to babbleland he checked and assured me he had not

according to this person i'm gonna check it out i now have a account to do hego sent it to me

4:13 pm

ah, that is good, jmc!

since i had no way to get one

4:13 pm

oh, that is great, babblelady!

4:13 pm

i am sorry babble i didn't understand that

4:14 pm

two left ra 5/20 and ra 6/36

4:14 pm

Looks like Hego sponsored Babblelady.

4:14 pm

hego got you your account? how nice

4:14 pm

Sorry Nrkii, was searching for a Smithwicks icon for you, but as usual, I failed to change my pic. (Saturday night here - no teenagers around!_

4:14 pm

i was sponsored during one of my broke periods

might have if its true i' so happy

4:14 pm

Hey peeps! Only 46 today? Cool!

4:15 pm

hi fran

hope i don't offend anyone on this it was shocking to me

4:15 pm

Hi, Fran! Yes, and I SOOOO wanted a large grid. Oh well!

4:15 pm

well how long have you played now babble?

4:15 pm

bbs

4:15 pm

hi pam!

i signed up this past week

4:16 pm

Oh, JMC, I love your 'broke period' comment. It gives me hope.... My 'broke period' is getting a bit tedious now... Looking forward to the end of it :-)

4:16 pm

how would that offend anyone babble? click on my account and see if you can upload an icon

4:16 pm

Soodle, I think Smithwick's is made by same guys as Guinness, so maybe there's a six-pack in that truck. :)

4:16 pm

Thoughts become things...thoughts become things...thoughts become things.

4:16 pm

mine come and go soodle since i am almost into a broke period again since i have used the last of the inheritance for the master renovation

4:16 pm

can anyone clue ra 5/20 and ra 6/36 for fireworks?

ok well what i meant i thought someone might be offended because of something like that being done by someone else in here

4:17 pm

in that case molls *thinks happy thoughts with lots of money and a great job*

getting me acct

4:17 pm

Holly, add another vowel (same one) to the ra4 before it and then make it past tense.

4:17 pm

ra5/20 sounds like a nickname for someone named after a small pink berry. :-)

gone to check out see if its true

4:18 pm

Fran!!!

4:18 pm

nrkii!!

4:18 pm

no not at all it is a fairly common occurrence and part of the friendliness of the place

4:18 pm

thanks for the past tense ra6, Molly! didn't think about doing that.

4:19 pm

Who would Fran? It's a totally whacked out word.

4:19 pm

No doubt about it Nrkii.. and here is a little taste..http://tinyurl.com/7v9xckj

4:19 pm

dad calling me, bbl

4:30 pm

4:30 pm

Hello fuzzybunny & Soodle! Thank you for the hus Soodle!

4:30 pm

Feather has been dropping by the last couple of nights

4:30 pm

4:30 pm

4:31 pm

yeah, what nrkii said! :-)

4:31 pm

Hello all. Just starting today. Finally finishing up several little nagging projects that cluttered up the house and were not a house design statement. Call the home decorating police.

4:31 pm

4:31 pm

Maybe stidgmere can convince stidmama to return here.

stidgmere!! How wonderful to catch you here. Give big hugs to our stiddy!

Just got back from NY with my aches and pains- am I getting old? Will I still be cool?

4:34 pm

Hello kje! How are you doing today? Welcome to the grid

Aretha is cool and she's almost 70

4:34 pm

4:34 pm

4:34 pm

kje!!!

sample: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=34E920v Qr-w

4:34 pm

hi kje

4:34 pm

i bet kap

4:34 pm

our second time to babble together. :-)

4:35 pm

<====totally green with envy

4:35 pm

I just heard yesterday that ella died about the same time as whitney... completely overshadowed by the other drama - that is a shame

You mean Etta?

4:35 pm

great Snoopy avi, kje!

4:35 pm

ty fran

4:35 pm

Ella Fitzgerald? She definitely deserves more attention!

Ella died about 15 years ago.

4:36 pm

sorry, yes, etta

4:36 pm

what etta died? i didn't see that and she was soooo much more important

4:36 pm

Etta James

4:36 pm

LOL! That is how out of the loop I am Kaplan the Magne.

Al Sharpton was on stage for a few minutes, doing his James Brown imitation

4:36 pm

that is what I thought, too jmc!

4:36 pm

Etta James? it was big news in wedding circles...At Last is still a very popular wedding song.

Etta James died a couple of weeks ago at age 73.

4:37 pm

Etta died on January 20th

4:37 pm

Same thing happened to Farrah Fawcett. People seemed to care more about Michael Jackson than Ms. Fawcett.

4:37 pm

yuck al sharpton is an amazingly good speaker though

"Something's got a hold on me"

4:37 pm

at llllllllllllllllllllaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaas sst

He did an awesome James Brown.

4:38 pm

well, etta died without drama - there ya go

didn't Michael Jackson have a bit more talent than Farrah?

4:38 pm

Hurray for jmcnrick!

4:38 pm

my love has come along

Roll with me Henry.

4:38 pm

hahaha fuzzy i was singing etta's song at last

4:39 pm

I thought you got fireworks

Etta had her drama earlier. I know you were singing At Last...I had her on my ipod on the bus home from NY

4:39 pm

imho michael jackson was a sad character with not as much talent as everyone made out

He was a good dancer.

4:39 pm

haha it took me a minute to figure out why you were cheering me

4:40 pm

he was sad, but I do think he was very talented

My 16 year old tried to move the car in our obnoxious driveway and tore off the bumper.

4:40 pm

Yes, he did. Jackson died over drugs whereas Farrah died after fighting a long battle with Cancer.I believe anyone who dies over drug overdose doesn't deserve so much attention. They don't learn from other cases

There's never a dull moment.

4:41 pm

ooops -- who needs a bumper anyway

4:41 pm

Poor Farrah died a hideous death. RIP

4:41 pm

oh dang, kap... my brother did that once, hit the house

Addiction is VERY complicated --and child stardom creates some horrible personality distortions and disorders

4:42 pm

my mother asked him why he did that, and he turned and looked at her and said, seriously? you think I had a reason?

4:42 pm

my cousin did that too, when he was about five!

4:42 pm

farrah was a native texan

4:42 pm

Have no sympathy for celebrities who abuse drugs,sorry

4:42 pm

I had forgotten farrah was texan

4:43 pm

well min i think michael jackson never had a chance

I work a lot with performers who have addictive problem in my clinical practice.

4:43 pm

Oh dear, Kap. My son opened the door of our car at a gas station, just as another car was pulling in, and actually ripped the door off the hinges. It was a chilly ride home that evening.

4:43 pm

5:09 pm

Now...may I please have a big puzzle to do for the rest of the night??!?!?

5:09 pm

is there really a difference between all the Jack Daniels stuff.. or not?

5:09 pm

like the green label and red label

5:09 pm

between jack daniels and bourbon?

5:09 pm

Oh phan! Poor boy!

5:09 pm

I started earlier today soodle!

5:10 pm

I know, right?

5:10 pm

oh between the labels . . . yes black label is definitely better

5:10 pm

not to me, ruru, as I don't like any of it, but probably you were looking for a more nuanced reply :-)

5:10 pm

different quality levels of Jack Daniels I think all made by the same distillery

5:10 pm

I believe the hubby and I are headed out to dinner...just the two of us! I think I will go gussy up a bit!

5:10 pm

NICE, Car! enjoy!

5:10 pm

have fun, car!

5:11 pm

Awww helll...after three or four shots who can tell?!?!?!

5:11 pm

glad she didn't say hussy up a bit

5:11 pm

it is similar to the difference between top shelf and middle shelf so not huge necessarily but there

5:11 pm

bye car have a nice dinner

5:11 pm

Maybe if I get lucky...and have some of that Jack!

5:11 pm

:p

5:11 pm

5:12 pm

5:12 pm

Tee hee! Bye all! Have a great night!

5:24 pm

Hi, hego! I don't think we've met.

<<<<<likes diamonds

5:25 pm

:D .... thanks nrkii.

5:25 pm

nice to see you and Fran come back

5:25 pm

I thoroughly researched the operation before getting engaged... got a ring that ticked all the boxes, then the diamond popped out, and now I have a lovely ring, sans diamond! Says it all, really!

5:25 pm

Hi Fran, I've been here a while.

5:25 pm

Hi ((((Hego)))

Of course not, Ru. Story of my life!

5:26 pm

5:26 pm

My poor Soodle.

5:27 pm

*comes in singing, "A kiss on the cheek may be quite continental, but diamonds are a girl's best friend....*

5:27 pm

Pshh.... the ring lasted longer than the marriage!!

5:27 pm

I know, I know. I have been either missing or lurking for the past couple of years. Bad bad bad bad bad.... (going into corner for a while)

5:27 pm

LOL, Soodle, that's one way to look at it.

5:27 pm

lol, Soodle!

5:27 pm

hahaha!

5:27 pm

5:27 pm

hi welki!

5:27 pm

5:27 pm

My mom would not let my dad buy her a diamond until they had been married 20 years.

5:27 pm

Onwards and upwards!!!

5:28 pm

welki

5:28 pm

hi, fran - don't know if we've 'met' before - think so

5:28 pm

She had been engaged to someone else before, and it didn't last, so she felt like she didn't want the diamond till it meant something. :)

5:28 pm

hego

5:28 pm

my hubby bought me a paste and plastic engagement ring for $2 and i loved it

5:28 pm

nice, jmc :)

5:28 pm

Don't think so, welki...i haven't actively Babbled for close to three years! (i babble a bit at home though)

5:28 pm

<<<<digs around bottom of jewelry box for a diamond for Soodle.

5:29 pm

he did it because his bil bought his sister a diamond the size of a golfball

5:29 pm

we were married for 13 years before he could afford to buy one for me - worth the wait

5:29 pm

Diamonds are always welcome, Hego!!!

5:29 pm

i guess if you're still married it worked, jmc! :-)

5:29 pm

I didn't get a diamond ring until I'd been married for 5 years.

5:29 pm

uh well sorta fran he died in 1993 but we were very happy

5:29 pm

To second husband. lol

5:29 pm

in that case, fran, a pleasure to make your acquaintance - you would have stopped just around when i joined this nutty group

5:30 pm

he didn't have a choice JM... if he didn't she'd have been teed off

5:30 pm

BIL that is

5:30 pm

there's the ruru I remember

5:30 pm

i think so, welki, based on your profile info.

5:30 pm

5:32 pm

5:48 pm

This iTunes bunch is the set I do my spaz dancing to when I want to get some quick exercise in.

5:48 pm

"now I gotta cut loose, footloose, kick off your dancing shoes!

5:48 pm

trying to imagine nrkii gone wild.

5:48 pm

hego - daughter did great her first week, her preceptor has already given her her own patients and the supervisor has already moved her to days (her preference)

5:49 pm

whoo hooo *shake shake shake*

5:49 pm

<-- jiggles more than shakes

5:49 pm

hego, some things are best left unimagined

5:49 pm

<===only knows one dance

5:49 pm

days. that's a big deal

5:49 pm

oh wait, it's kick or your Sunday shoes, right?

5:49 pm

5:49 pm

kiff off your sunday shoes

5:49 pm

5:49 pm

nrkii, as long as you don't look like Elaine from Seinfeld. lol

lol nrkii omg i must have been an alcoholic as a baby j/k

5:50 pm

of course welki

5:50 pm

Fran, pretty much. But I only spaz dance in private.

5:50 pm

hego, yes! days are a big deal - husband is a medic, they have a 2. 1/2 year old - nights would have been rough

5:50 pm

is this the one in Jersey, Welki?

5:51 pm

With you on the jiggling thing, Welki. But I'm more of a wobbler than a jiggler :-(

i love dancing acn;t do much these days to many aches an pains with age

5:51 pm

when i was young an skinny they would shine the light on me when i would dance in the jazz club

5:51 pm

yes, she lives in somerset. another lives in eatontown (there's also one in albany)

5:51 pm

alas the flab doesn't move quite the same way

5:51 pm

i think of the flab as a benefit - keeps me in perpetual motion

5:52 pm

Sounds like she's doing great, Welki.

5:52 pm

Welki, I just read your profile, and I love it. You are so right.

5:52 pm

(and i've only had lights shine on me at inopportune times)

5:53 pm

she's happy, hego - says there are a couple of old timers that are giving her the frosties, but that'll pass when they need her to do a big needle stick (she's already got a reputation for being able to start un-startable lines)

5:53 pm

Perpetual motion.... ROFL! I LOVE it!

5:53 pm

I used to be a great dancer, but yes, age does slow one down.

5:53 pm

thanks, nrk - i haven't changed my profile in years, but boyhowdy, it always seems to be appropos

5:53 pm

hooray for you Minver!

5:53 pm

That and a hubby who doesn't dance.

5:54 pm

<--- also likes welki's profile

5:54 pm

*smiles at soodle as she (me) sways perpetually to the music*

5:54 pm

I am an okay dancer in a club. As long as I don't have to touch anyone. As soon as I am arm-in-arm, I forget how to dance.

5:54 pm

was Min here?

5:54 pm

hi dan - where's min?

5:54 pm

hi, Dan!

5:54 pm

Did I miss min?

5:54 pm

Hi Dan!

5:54 pm

dan are you drinking?

5:55 pm

thanks, sue :)

5:55 pm

you missed min, nrkii

5:55 pm

I think Dan is in a time warp! lol

5:55 pm

Could never dance. Dancing was a spectator sport for me.

5:55 pm

min was here quite some time ago - I think dan is having flashbacks :-)

5:55 pm

LOL

5:55 pm

dan has a time delay

5:56 pm

Oh I saw Min earlier. just thought she had posted something recent that I overlooked

6:06 pm

6:06 pm

uu, it would only be polite... better food

Too bad nrkii

6:09 pm

March 10 ... I think 1 - 6 PM

6:11 pm

6:13 pm

6:13 pm

I forgot about rhyming clues

6:14 pm

Soodle, I'm sending a cabana boy to give you a nice cocktail to help ease your conscience

6:16 pm

that's so hard to do, welki...you're talented. :-)

6:16 pm

what's so hard to do?

6:16 pm

Only Jewish guilt can compare with catholic guilt. lol

6:17 pm

oops, I meant Soodle! the self-flagellating while typing.

6:17 pm

<-- jewish mom, catholic dad - talk about the guilt factor

6:17 pm

yes, guilt is our common denominator

6:17 pm

Cheering up at the thought of the cabana boy bearing cocktails :-)

6:17 pm

Oh, poor Welki. Queen of guilt.

6:17 pm

Years of practice, Fran, years of practice!

6:25 pm

I guess I will have to read back in the archives later on.

6:25 pm

you can make any slow cook dish in a slow cooker.

6:25 pm

crock pots are wonderful.

6:42 pm

Thanks for asking soodle. Things are the same but no use bringing down chog. Shouldn't have said anything anyway.I try not to bring personal issues into the log

6:42 pm

Gwen, I think there's a farcical award named ra5/20

yepper, thanks fran

6:43 pm

the ra is tough because of double vowel toward end.

6:43 pm

Always thought that word ended in ie instead of ee Fran.

6:43 pm

clue for the y word please and the two o words. dont have those.

6:44 pm

it rhymes with it at least, min. :-)

ye5/10, a snooty yiddish person

6:44 pm

ye5/14 is a yiddish busybody

6:44 pm

Oh, Min.... Babble is a great place to air and share your worries and concerns. Nobody judges. And, as they say, a trouble shared is a trouble halved. Your call, of course, but, you have friends here. ((((Hugs)))

6:44 pm

ye 5/14 word is anagram of the te 5/14 word.An on 5/12 word is anagram of gin and *****. oy 4/11 is in my story.

6:45 pm

on5/12, on + small muscular spasm

ops, ignore my clue it is all WORNG

6:45 pm

Thanks soodle!

i have that O, need the other O, hope it not a fishy one

6:45 pm

oy4/11, not sure what it means, but ends in the final letter of the alphabet.

ty fran!!

6:46 pm

oy4/11:what someone says three times to get attention

6:47 pm

Min, you are a Babble Treasure, with your stories, and your cheery welcomes. We love ya, hon!

the oy is a babblet.. I am going to pretend it means 'floral pattern in wood'

6:47 pm

okay, that's what i thought min...in a courtroom usually, right?

6:47 pm

Yep! That is exactly what it is used for FranMag.

6:48 pm

I kind of like mrp's definition. lol

the kids were asking me this the other day. "why isn't there a single word for 'back window windscreen wiper'?'

DOS

so I told them to make one up!! hopefully if they use it enough, it will stick and other people will use it too.

6:49 pm

lol

there's no word from front window wiper either, unless you just say wiper and assume the worst

6:49 pm

I call that the rearview windshield wiper mrpresident.

too right gwen!

UNO

try saying that fast, 3 times min! LOL

6:50 pm

go gwen go!

6:50 pm

I guess since the front ones are front windshield wipers, then the back ones would be the rear windshield wiper.

6:50 pm

Go Book Doctor Gwen go!

now in america we have shortened a lot of british-english words, but they call it a cubby and we call it a glove compartment. how silly is that?

indeed, but they wanted to know why there isn't ONE WORD for it

6:51 pm

Sheesh, Mr P, I could write a book about questions my kids asked me, to which there are no answers.... Why is the sky blue.... where do dead people go, and the classic... If God can do anything, can he make a rock that he can't lift?

soodle, they have figured out why the sky is blue . . . ;)

6:51 pm

and who puts gloves in there anyway?

No ONE

6:52 pm

Good point Book Doctor Gwen! Not many people gloves in there. It should be called car documents compartment.

6:52 pm

*put

it is our car rubbish and pens compartment

6:53 pm

The God Making a Rock He Cant lift question still stumps me.

FIREWORKERSES!!

6:53 pm

Why do people park in a driveway & drive on a parkway?

6:55 pm

i am very old fashioned. no cell phone, no computer crap in the car, no portable compoter crap. i am a book person, TYVM

6:55 pm

we would eat the saltines and drink juice.... that is all we had on the medicine floors.... but occasionally the crackers were graham, that was better

8:17 pm

Not the veggies, just the fruits and puddings--not bad, especially at 3 AM when you are starving.

8:18 pm

the CCU nurses were so nice that first night. we were there until 1:30am, and i was starving, and one nurse gave me a cup of soda from behind their desk and a handful of saltine and graham cracker packets.

10:24 pm

hmmmm

10:25 pm

Hello to my fellow babblers! I am briefly checking in here.

some words i just take a guess at some work some don't the crazy ones

hi min i still have 14 to go

10:26 pm

I see people are still working on the grid. I have story in the profile from earlier today if anybody wants to read it

i'm a slow babbler maybe not by mouth loll just babble words

i'm a terrible babbler when i get really into talking on something that really interest me

i read it min some i got some i didn't

10:29 pm

Ask for clues babblelady2012. Maybe I can help you finish

may be the weird letters not sure

on board

10:30 pm

It was a tough puzzle today.I had to list after 120 words

10:31 pm

i think i have a different grid than you do, min

10:32 pm

Hello mab! How are you? Not sure how that can be true.

10:32 pm

Duh! sorry, mab!I just looked at my last post. Stupid me!

10:33 pm

I was thinking of yesterday's grid.I listed after 25 words

10:33 pm

no, definitely not stupid

10:33 pm

rapt

10:34 pm

ohhhh sorry

ok at5,de4,ey4,ne4 thats a few of them

10:34 pm

No better way to clue than to just spell it right out mab.

min

10:34 pm

i think so

10:34 pm

An at5/16 is almost like the at 5/14 word babblelady2012

10:36 pm

de 4/5 is anagram of ne4/5. Next de4/5 is a nick in your car. de 4/7 word is to refuse to admit any wrong doing.

10:37 pm

The ne 4/4 word describes the bright lights in Las Vegas

i got one at5 an one at4 need other at 5

tried a vowel in front of one of them it want take it

10:38 pm

The first at 5/14 word is a plus **** Danza or **** Soprano

10:38 pm

The at5's vary by one letter

10:39 pm

An at 5/16 word is at 4/5 word plus the sometimes vowel

10:39 pm

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

10:39 pm

Heyas kids ..

hi torg

need another de4

got two of them

10:44 pm

de4's vary by only the last letter

10:45 pm

I clued all three de4 words. Which one do you stillne 4/5?

10:45 pm

FIREWORXXX

10:45 pm

Congratulations bleugirl2 on your fireworks! Good for U!

10:45 pm

Now that bluegirl2 has fireworks, I am going to bed now.

de4/7

10:48 pm

It's like other de4 words but ends with sometimes vowel.

oops de4/5

10:49 pm

I have changed my icon to Lady Gaga for the next theme

cool

10:49 pm

A de4/5 word is a nick in your car or anagram of ne 4/5.

i like her

she's unique

10:50 pm

I don't really care for her,but it's tomorrow's icon theme

she's awesome person

oh ok didn't know we have an icon theme

does everyone do it at same time or individula

10:52 pm

There's a different icon theme each day.Today it was SpongeBob Square Pants.Sprite has a list of themes in her profile. Most babblers do not partake in themes.

ok

10:53 pm

I used to do the themes all the time. Now only some of the times.When I saw many didn't do it,I lost interest

10:55 pm

I usually do a celebrity b-day or remember an event that happened in history on the date that I am babbling.

10:55 pm

Stayed much longer than I intended to.I must leave now.

10:56 pm

Goodnight to all babblers!I hope to see you all tomorrow.

ok tc
