Guy comes home from church choir practice with 2 black eyes. His wife asks "what happened??" "well... when we all stood up I saw that sister Johnson's dress was stuck in her bottom. I know how much you hate that, and I didn't want to make a fuss so I just leaned forward and gently pulled it out.. and she turned around and belted me in my right eye!!!" ...... "You didn't! Oh my.. wait a minute.. why do you have TWO black eyes??" "Well.. she got so upset, I put it back!"

Morning, sprite
hi peach :D
How is your weather, sprite?
at this moment it is really cold, close to freezing, but sunny and clear.
and yours?
I think we are in the 50's ....supposed to warm up for the weekend.
I am ready for a bit more warmth!
Me too.
with all those crosses between feline animals I would have expected tigron to be valid... a cross between a tiger and a lion.
Yes. It would seem so.
it makes my day, grin... I can look down my nose at enable again ;)
Cool!
I just looked at your pictures.....love the little dogs.
thank you :) The brown one is Terra, our cavalier. He is my little sunshine!
this little piece of sunshine is now snoring loudly, with his head on my foot.
I had a cocker spaniel many years ago....he was the same color of yours....named him Rusty. We found him on a highway during a storm....he stayed several years and ran away during a storm.
aw how sad that he ran away :( But wonderful he found a home with you for so many years.
I have two "rescue" dogs now. There is a song with "You almost make my day begin" and that is oh, so true here. LOL
:D They are priceless, aren't they.
True!
Sprite, I must bid you goodnight......it is 4:00AM here and I have 87 left
sleep well, peach, and dream even better. Good job on the grid!
I've enjoyed "talking" with you. Have a great day.
same here!
good morning

eb
hi PMS, a very good eb to you too
hi sprite. got tennis elbow without playing tennis so am trying to type left handed. my left handdoes not know where the correct keys are. don't thinkI will be getting anywhere near 273 today.
can i have a clue for the en 6 please?
argh how frustrating, PMS :( I hope it will heal soon.
I don't have en6 yet, will help look
en6: en + put around your middle
i still cant find it
en6 - en plus the opposite of a boy, but use a different final consonant.
And good morning/afternoon/evening all.
thank you
You're welcome.
hi Haz :)
Hello, sprite.
We had a frost this morning but the sun is out now and it's warming up a bit.
it is about the same here. Very clear and sunny, but still cold. The sun has power already, so it will warm up soon
Well, I have an appointment with the ironing board and the vacuum cleaner so I'd better not be late. Enjoy the grid, it's a fun one today!
thanks Haz. Have a lovely day.
Bye, sprite and everyone.

she uses it for her caligraphy
lever*
I remember using those!
i just get ink all over the place:/
I remember that too. They have a rubber tube thing inside which used to perish as I remember as well
indeed lynxx,this one is not bad,as when it was used last before i found it,it was stored empty
you often find the with rock hard ink in there and you may as well forget it
I wonder if you can get replacements for them anymore
i imagine kap may know if she collects.i just got this cause it was a pretty thing and the wife draws

and 90% done!
time for list.
12 to go here...yay hurshy....( hands on hips * and why not list??
i said it IS time for list.
you go, girl, you go!!!!!
you go, girl, you go!!!!!
so when do people usually list? I am curious.
everyone has their own method.
when they run out of inspiration, viajes
the soonest i will go is 80% and that is if it is a really really really awful grid.
when you . . . just . . . can't . . . take . . . it . . . any . . . more . . .
that's when I do it! when I start to get frustrated and feel like I have found the real words... though I try to have at least half first
:-D
i usually list once i have ben thru the grid once.
even going at 90% like today, i'm currently saying, "really?? you missed THAT?"
lol, especially the plurals....don't you just hate it when you miss a plural...or a past tense...
I often miss words that have been in other grids recently because I think I've already entered them
same here, viajes!
sometimes I'll list and just see "oh, I missed a whole bunch of st's" and then I just look for ST's for awhile without looking at the list... it sounds like you guys wait longer than me :P
whoot, 6 to go, all w's
i guess it all depends which feeling you hate more - being stuck, or finding out how easy the words you missed were.

Hi and good afternoon
Hi bichon
Another beautiful and rainless day in CT
Hi bichon
Rainy in California
Hi Erda
Hi Diane
Where is Kensington Erda? Anywhere near the Bay Area? My d.i.l. said it had been raining
rain forecast for this evening and tomorrow , here in Alberta.... MUCH preferred to the snow dump we got last Thursday !
It is in the Bay Area. Could be called North Berkeley
My d.i.l.'s parents live in Albany. When I'm out there, we often visit
Practically next door...
Love the Monteray Market.
Oh yes -- a great place!
And my son and I always go to the butcher on the next block
Haven't been there much since I discovered Trader Joe's
I thin MM has the best produce.
true
My son loves the free range air dried chickens
at the butcher
thinking of that, it's lunch time. BBL
hellooooo babblers!
hi to you tooooo, lbuxx !
hi all,have es8, help with other 8s pls
I have that one, plus one other so not much help st 8/40 is one
ty,will look
st8/40 more sober faced.... or "rockier"
hmmm. thinking
which st does ti come from pls?
people in glass houses should not throw "them"
ty diane
I mean the MOST ... not more... sorry ... superlative ending

ne7/8?
type of cocktail. start with not positive and ends with maca**** (pasta)
mix, I'm baffled
tyvm peri
yvw
ty peri!
yw
made with sweet vermouth, gin and bitters
Oh man, is that what that word means? I could never drink that.
I could, but without the bitters
what are bitters. I don't drink alcohol at all
bitters: an additive made bark, herbs, roots and berries which gives a bitter zesk to drinks.
zest even
why would anyone want to drink that?
don't know bichon, to each his or her own I guess
crossy likes his hard booze unsullied by any additive or ice..poor stuff bruises so easlily:)just in a tumbler with a wee drop of branch water to release the aromas;)
there is even a company now ,manufacturing and selling soapstone "ice cubes" you freeze them and use them like regular ice,but they do not water down the drink.when you are done,just wash them and freeze them again..give a whole new meaning to "on the rocks please"
that sounds rocky, crossy
hey erda - i was just in the monterey bay area end not too long ago meeting bf's family.. it was SOO beautiful!
i've found i prefer real ice cubes to any solid that is substituted for it.
they are fine dc,you just have to not forget they are not ice when you are 3 drinks in and start chewing on them
hi all, any clues for es8 please?
female hormone
and the oe7 is old spelling of same
hi all, any clues for es8 please?
look below lol
crossy waves at zooz
zoom*
Oh, speaking of Zooz, I miss him.
need a clue to get me going on the bottom g please

best way to find what you need is to post it in most cases
good afternoon, everyone!
howdy suze;)
hi crossy!
just monkeyed a di7 that it turns out is already in the physics babblets list :-0
any clue for that?
di + vowel + an elec**** is part of an atom
ty sue
guess i could of pulled your list:)
that too :-)
i am just over 1/3 though this and have no fantasies of finishing this,but i will plod away for a bit still
I am close to half but have a meeting shortly
though easy ones keep coming out of hiding..compass direction and pl
thks for those!
I find that the words are coming in spurts - I'll see something and it will give me 3 or 4
there,another spurt of 20..you never know
exactly!
like this one st 5/10 an annoying eye affiction
the pl that is
and i now have at least half from each tile and must go to my meeting (and then to class). see you later!
tc suze
I leave you with a parting hint - ing and ong are very useful combinations :-)
Zoom es8 is a female hormone
told him that
hello all
1:08 to 1:10 pm
howdy ursh
I should always remember the word for the long loincloth worn by many Hindu men in India.
Just not when I am shopping at the oulets lol
just found Motor City . . .
yup,i saw that when i came on this morning
:-D
in SA so as not to be sexist - the person who serves you in a restaurant is called a waitron - not accepted here ??
ursh LOL!!
amazing what hides though just found what should of been an easy on 1/3 of the way in de 5/14
No, "server" is the politically correct term these days.
A WAITRON?? are you kidding me??
here we just use waiter or waitress
yep, found the de5/14 early on . . .
no i kid you not i thought it was international
a waitron sounds like a killer robot from the planet seti alpha 6 lol
ursh, that is hilarious :-)
it is not ursh
crossy, was thinking Blade Runner LOL
a waiter or watress differentiates quite nicely
oh well - never too old to learn
67 to go . . . leaning toward the list . . .
and all in SA they use the term waitron??
ursh, can't wait to use it in a sentence! :-)
last word - wa7/44 - any clues please
nah i just call them waiter or waitress
Sounds like a danish Ursh
The pa word for danish.
tx molly!! new word for me
63 to go . . . taking a break *poof*
ty ty - fireworks without more words
yaa for ursh!!
i have these silly challenges - try without a list - failing that try without more words - dont usually manage either !!
i often finish without a list,but rarely without morewords
clue please for en 8/50 ??
there is no en8/50; es8/50 is a female hormone
thanks... eyes are getting blurry
must be time for a break
yw :-)
good evening all, 39 left!
fireworks finally and off to make supper..... later
you go soprite !!
hiya sprite! down to 83 over here..urgh
congrats!

wtg smom!
hi Sugr and lbuxx :) It is a fun grid today.
hello everyone :)
hi nan :)
sure is.. waay better than yesterday
yay sammy!
hehehe yes
and hi lbuxx, sprite, nan, and leona!
hey uusue :)
so my son's laptop got run over by a car last night. Sigh.
what? That is pretty special...
He can still use it if he hooks it up to the TV but the screen and the CD drive are broken.
It was 4 years old so probably about time for a new one anyway, but yet another expense I wasn't really counting on...
I kind of wonder how he managed to do that
no insurance?
the other kid's car insurance might cover it; we'll see.
but my son might be at fault for leaving his black backpack in the parking lot at night.
quite frustrating, uusue :(
He'd leaned his backpack against a car as they were loading stuff, but then the car moved to let someone else drive out, and they drove over the backpack.
oh wow sue.. that sux
*sigh*
Did anyone here know that Scrabs' father passed away on 4/4?
I just saw that on Facebook, bichon, very sad (and her story there is very touching)
no I didn't. How is Scrabs coping?
Yes, it is
As we would expect someone like Scrabs to cope. Gallantly
en 6, please?
en + put around your middle.
thanks, sprite!
she is a hero. Thanks for telling us.
ty sprite
yvw
Yes, apparently Scrabs was there when he passed - in the hospital but quite unexpectedly - it was quite a shock to the whole family
yw sprite
I don't know how old he was, but he died of something I've never heard of
am really sorry for Scrabs and her loved ones. What a tough thing to handle.
I didnt hear about Scrabbler's Dad. I am very very sorry for her loss. Scrabbler, if you are here ((((((((((((Hugs galore to you, my dear)))))))))))))).
cardiac amyloidosis - I looked it up and it sounds scary. Hope it is not genetic.
hey Soodle
Hiya Sprite :-)
hi Soodle
bye to all - must go to class - see you all later!
And (((Bich))) and Hi and bye Sue ((()))
bye uusue, have a good one
nothing about it being genetic, as far as I can see. But exceedingly rare... 'only' 3000 people a year get diagnosed with it. That is not much to do research on, I think.
It's a grim disease with not a long life span
I really hate for Scrabs and her family to have to go through this :(
It was very sudden. He was in the hospital for something else. She was with him, adjusting the headreast on the bed and he was gone.
ne 7-8, please?
ne7...think black people and ends like elbow pasta
Nan, it's a drink
hi phaeton
opp of pos+maca****
hi sprite
was thinking of a clue, but phaeton's is perfect
and grant's. Hi grant.
ty grant
hi guys
yw nan
with absolutely no disrespect to Scrabbler or her late Dad, but, that is the way I would like to go. Nice and quick, and no hassle for those who are left behind.
I know what you mean, Soodle. But I have seen how tough it can be on family if it happens so sudden. I am not sure I'd wish that on them.
((((Spritey))))
((((Soodle))))
done...take care!
wtg phaeton! I have 4 left.
I'm not in the best of humour this evening. I will only drag the chog down if I stay. Hugs and best wishes to all my dear Babblers (((())))0
*hugs Soodle* Sorry to see you go, dear friend. You know you are just as welcome here when you are not feeling a happy camper as when you do, right?
fireflies. Lovely grid. Bye all, have a good one.
congrats, sprite
back after lunch :)
down to 4.. anyone need clues?
can anyone clue the HO 6/21?
and the GO 6/30?
ho6/21 starts like an equine and ends with **a and crumpets
ho 5/21 + vowel
5/12
thanks guys
go6/30 is like the plural of first President Washington, without the second vowel
go6/30 plural of go 5/18
ahh.. have that one.. would be the last one
go6/30 last one is the gerund of what gets done to kill a bull
ahh. gotcha! got it.. anyone need clues before I leave?

question for you folks. as you know I volunteer at a local food pantry once a week. we were just told that if we were not able to meet an obligation, not only were we to contact two people but we needed to find someone to replace us.
mind you, we are not compensated in any way. is this a fair thing to ask of us. what will they do if we do not comply,fire us?
I'd rethink that volunteer job peri
... exacctly
I am about to, bichon. I like the people I volunteer with.
... if it ain't fun anymore ... don't do it ...
I do like it but it has been almost two years. I can probably figure out a way to stay in touch with the people I like. or just cut down to once a month
and then stop altogether
still dont understand
keep volunteering and do your best to find a replacement if you miss (which I'm sure you would do anyway). as far as notifying the other two i'd just politly ignore that "requirement"
the other two are the people in charge good
so that means at least 3 phone calls or e-mails
we were supposed to get a holiday dinner but that did not happen
we get get a holiday lunch last year
yup and if they want volunteers they will just be happy you or the replacement is there
bbiab
I have a hard time with any agency that has the benefit of volunteers placing any obligations on them at all. There are people in paid positions who can arrange staffing if someone can't be there.
uoits
hi all
if they were smart they would have phrased it differently
"it is really hard for us to cope when the people we are counting just don't show up so if it turns out you can't make your regular time, could you let one of us know and maybe even help us further (you know how full our plates are already!) and see if you can line up a replacement?
stats for the o on the top row please? (I really wanted it to be ogre)
Alas, it is some archaic oe word that sounds like a female hormone
oe7/28 ... builds from es6/18
!!!!
*whew* hard to monkey even with a clue
uh oh. just checking in for the first time nd i see a monster, hope it isn't a tough one!!
I cruised along to 200 pretty easily last night (with the chog clues, of course) but now I'm thinking it's list time.
okay good to know... of course i id jump in nad have 92 already
Hi, just starting and know I'll leave lots of words unfound. Oh well. Very seasonable day. Cool, cloudy, hail, rain, sun, puffy clouds, something for everyone.
Good evening to my fellow babblers! How is everyone?
By the way,congratulations to all finishers!Way to go
Hi minvery, fine out here. Are you faring well?
I am okay.Gave up on the grid at 3:00 with 165 words
I have only 42 words and am aiming at 100.
hello sg'mer, and mi... slow computer her right now
I dorens. Glad to see you at the chog.
good to see you too, but i have to make and eat dinner, and find all these words? not much time for chat this evening, unfortunately
(i am still a slave to the obsession... want to finish, which is a ridiculous use of my little spare time this evening)
Understand completely. Some days I can't chat and find words.
ok. passed halfway point... time to scrounge around the kitchen and find food.. bbson

sh 5/10?
Was able to babble w/ea4/4 for the first 150 words.I gave up after finding 165.Here's a story of clues now When I was a kid,I lived on a farm in No5/12 Dakota. I used to ride my ho5/12 named tr4/6ger every day. One time I was sh4/6ged off my ho 5/12. I ho 5/12ed myself on 4/4 it and it began to tr 4/4 before I could even put my feet in the st 4/4rups. I wanted ho5/12 to slow down.I did the wr5/22 thing by sw4/8ting its rear thinking it would stop. It started to gallop and I pulled on the reigns. Then ho 5/12 stopped sh5/12 wi 4/9 no warning. I was not st 6/24 enough to hang on and I went flying. The st 5/14 from the pain brought tears to my eyes. Then I fainted&took a long si6/18. I was so lucky that my life wasn't sh 7/32ed from the incident. After the accident, I sa4/5 to my Mom that I would never ride a ho5/12 again. I have never been back to the si 4/4 of the accident si4/6 it happened. Have a th 6/27 of very bad memories each time I see a ho5/12. Hubby is se4/54ing me cues that he wants the computer. He hates to wa 4/8 for the computer. He te5/12 to get irate as he wa5/18 for the laptop.I will give hubby computer and let him wa5/18 his time on Farmville so he does not cause a ri4/4. I'm go5/18 to get out of this se 4/4 and go ne 4/4en the kitchen
Sh5/10? There is no sh5/10.

i think my geriatric cat is in a fight down the block--this has been a busy night bbl
i love my new phone
Cat fights, banging in the kitchen, rowdy times at JMC's.
what does your new phone do, cos
Min, we're an hour from Manchester, so no worries.
Do U have the newest version of the iPhone cosdem?
Hello cosdem!How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
no i got an android instead. i dont like i phones
let's pun
How come you don't like iPhones cosdem.Might deter me from getting iPhone which would be a great thing.
andorid is cheaper.. 45/month unlimited
blueheron, I tried opeining your profile. Did not open all the way,and now I cannot seem to close the profile
iPhones are selfish. It is I, I, I all the time.
i had a blackberry before this. now i can actually play draw something lol
Does your android work the same way as the iPhone?
iPhones are eg6,24s
they are. we need an altruistic phone
one that will make breakfast and rotate the tires on our cars
My husband has the blackberry and he loves it. I still have an old fashioned cell phone which does NOTHING
LOL mab!
I am not crazy for my blackberry
sounds like my phone, min.
I'd actually give my blackberry a big raspberry
Mine too, Min. I can text but it's not easy
5 police officers have been wounded here. What the hell is going on.
wow.. where in NH is that blue?
what an extaordinary event for NH
greenland, near Portsmouth
What kind of word is the in8? Does it mean to have been put inside a pastry?
Sad to hear it blue.
sounds awful.
Yes Wht. Kind of like the girl who jumps out of the cake.
I do have a keyboard on phone so it is easy for me to text.I have a touch screen on my cell phone however the sophistication stops there. I'll keep my cell phone until it dies, even though I'm eligible for a free phone.
Ahh, Molly. That must be it.
<---One of those odd people who only uses her cell phone to make phone calls.
that's only for people who are crusty or flaky wht
slip and fall lawyers must get hungry a lot
That's about all I do, Molly and very little of that. I just have a pay as you go phone. $100 lasts me a whole year and I don't use all that so it rolls over.
me too, molls.
Well the the word is pretty flakey tool.
Or too.
Yes, I only use my cell phone to make phone calls.I do not even have it on when I am home. I don't even use a third my minutes. I really could do w/out cell phone.
mab, extraordinary??? Do you really care about humanity??
except that i am phonaphobic. my phone is off most of the time.
Oh,I also text sometimes to plan carpooling schedule.
i use skype for talking to friends.
Evening all. May I please have a clue for in6-18? Thanks
saw your profile.
Mine's off most of the time too. I usually only text my son because he works wierd hours and can't take calls at work.
Husband get annoyed. He says, "what is the point of having a cell phone if you are not even going to use it
Molly, clearly that is the kind of cake they serve at or6,24

I was born in Vietnam and I adopted when I was two.
Oh, in what year, Min?
1971
(wondering if it had anything to do with the Vietnam war)
well, that was well after the war. I keep forgetting how ancient I am, lol!

I was in an orphanage the first two years of my life.I was adopted in 1971 and lived in Minnesota and then I moved to Vermont and grew up there.Then I moved to Long Island, NY when I attended graduate school.
en6?
how long were you in MN Minver?
FW!
fw!!
I lived in Minnesota until I was about 8 or 9 years old.
yay jill!
Congratulations viajes on your fireworks! Way to go!
Congratulations jillibus on your fireworks! Way to go!
Twin Cities? Or elsewhere?
Where in Long Island, Min? I lived in Forest Hills for a while. And we have Bronsxville/Yonkers in common too, lol!
I went to Sarah Lawrence for undergrad
such a small world...
I lived in Walker,Minnesota,however visited the twin cities often to visit my Grandma.She lived in Wyzeta.
yay viajes!!!
I lived in Levittown and then I moved to Farmingdale.
I remember when Levittown was built -- very avant-garde little boxes!
Hubby and I lived in a little box in Toronto at the time.
There were no high-rises in Toronto then, no apartments to rent.
I have rented so many apartments in my lifetime.I've also moved several times in my lifetime.I hate moving!
I have moving dreams, where I have a few hours to pack and I have a whole house full of stuff. Usually too I'm getting on an airplane so it all has to fit in a suitcase.
Time to use the ice-pack again -- brb
hello everyone :)

Hi MLFAN17! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
163 ..
Back again. In case anyone is wondering, I had surgery on my chin to remove a recurred skin cancer and had orders to use an ice-pack for 15 minutes on, 15 minutes off, for 48 hours. And the 48 hours will be over tonight. Besides the incision, I have a big bruise which the ice-pack was supposed to prevent, lol!
yeah.. speed. the gr4 just isn't cutting it!
