wow, 99,000 people at the AFL final! Looks like Austrialian rules football is a combo of football (aka Soccer in the rest of the world) and some American football (aka US football). And the final is like the US Super Bowl.

2:06 am

you got it one, marais. this is a nail-biter

2:08 am

Good luck to the Hawks. And the players do look quite nice. My DH is sleeping upstairs after his big 47th birthday.

2:20 am

Yay!! for the swans!!

2:22 am

anike, all played so well, but the swans were able to hold onto the ball more.

2:23 am

I shouldn't really cheer them - they have been the eagles nemesis for many years but we who are not Victorians tend to support the non-Victorians

2:24 am

;P to you.... understandable, though.

2:28 am

Back t o this game now

2:29 am

The he 8 I have is - present plus 3 goes **** 6 two times. A clue for the other one, please.

pe

8:56 am

8:57 am

I think related to a Affenpinscher

8:58 am

b

9:02 am

"The Miniature Pinscher is not a scaled-down, version of anything, especially the much larger Doberman Pinscher, although both are likely descended from the German Standard Pinscher. It is a distinctly German breed often referred to as the Zwerg or Dwarf Pincher in historical documents. German Kennel Club documents also refer to the Miniature Pinscher as the "reh" Pinscher, but this term is only used for a dog of stag-red color, "reh" referring to a small red deer found in German forests years ago. The one fact remains that the Miniature Pinscher originated several centuries ago as an efficient barnyard ratter, with no relation to the Doberman or the Manchester Terrier. "

9:04 am

but I digress - just a dobie person at heart but the min pins are very nice dogs if you like the small guys and girls

9:04 am

I like a dog you can wrap your arms around

9:05 am

12:03 pm

12:03 pm

Got that from my husband. Along with the withering look anytime I tried to pronounce something in French.

12:03 pm

lol

12:04 pm

Clair De La Lune is big with music teachers who want to teach basic note progression.

12:04 pm

lol - all from a clue!

12:04 pm

interesting, Molly

12:06 pm

Well, better than me saying that word reminds me of Ross Pe5. Since we are under a gag order about "you know what".

12:07 pm

*wipes coffee off screen*

12:08 pm

And me trying to clue it using the French word for "rock" would be worse than useless, I suppose.

12:09 pm

gtood afternoon all

12:09 pm

hi wv!

12:10 pm

The French have dozens of words for Rock

12:10 pm

Well Sue, that is a "kinda". I used to know someone named Pi4rette and that means little stone.

12:10 pm

true. It's also the french version of the name Peter.

12:10 pm

yes, depending on how it is used

12:11 pm

wonder how you'd say picked a peck of pickled peppers in French?

12:11 pm

Me: Is ___ the French word for ____? Husband: Well, that's one of them. Me: *Rolls eyes and walks out of room*

12:13 pm

ha, my French is too rusty for that, ruru!

12:14 pm

where's Une?

12:15 pm

Choisi un peck de piments. That's one way. There are probably ten others.

12:15 pm

what I found most difficult when I was living in France was figuring out what my son was talking about - he was learning colloquial French from other children and a lot of it wasn't in the dictionary (although I did find the books Merde and Merde Encore to be very useful :-)

12:16 pm

also when the school sent home lists of things for field trips, even the words borrowed from English were borrowed from British English, so I still needed a translator :-)

12:17 pm

and I'm still trying to find re6/21 (after the 6/24)and re5/14 after 7/32)

12:17 pm

how long did you live in France, Sue

12:17 pm

re + give someone a job back

well, you are way ahead of me, flosey!

120.00 a month saved.

3:07 pm

and u know what? i was watching tv and they had syndicated reruns on over the air channels til 2am so there's always something on.

3:07 pm

Molly, your profile reminds of a woman who lied about having a disease. Others made donations to help pay for her wedding. Her husband found out about it and divorced her. I think she had to pay the donors back.

3:07 pm

what! give up homeland!! : o

3:08 pm

never watched homeland anyway. and the only cable shows i watch are reruns, and american horror story and they will be on dvd soon.

3:40 pm

Hate it when other people lie period, whether it's for attention or not.Some just lie and see nothing wrong with it. I don't get it. I am such a stickler about lieing

3:41 pm

Pathological liars lie about everything. Most people lie because they are afraid of getting in trouble. Pathological liars lie because they get their jollies from it. Sick, sick people.

3:42 pm

Think pathological liars sometime do not even realize that they're lieing or they truly believe their own lies

3:42 pm

was just about to ask for a clue for the at6 but decided to look over grid once more and found it!

Oh no, they know they are lying. Especially the ones who lie on the internet.

6:59 pm

Final clue for re 5 /16 - little plastic or wooden clip things to hang up washing on line

7:00 pm

Rhyming clue is good too

7:00 pm

lol... well what do you use to fasten a piece of laundry on the laundry line?

7:00 pm

yep, rhyming is very good

7:00 pm

Or rhymes with what dogs do when they look cute asking for food

7:01 pm

found the repin..not the margerette one

7:01 pm

ahh..peg is actually a form of margerette?? thats what threw me ty

7:01 pm

well crossy, you have a good re*utation for eating bacon and **gs.

7:01 pm

lololllllllllllll

7:02 pm

prob the same one - old fashiioned short form of Margaret

7:02 pm

per= margerette? funny lol

7:02 pm

peg..cunny

7:02 pm

I definitely feel a lot less stupid now all of a sudden

7:02 pm

yes crossy... that is that mystical link between Ms and Ps.

7:02 pm

cannot spell either tonight

7:03 pm

never in my life have i heard if it..maggie,mags,but peg?

7:03 pm

I never understood that nickname either

7:03 pm

who gives a *beep*, crossy. As long as you are with us.

7:03 pm

and it is not mystical..totally different name

7:03 pm

yes ty sprite

7:03 pm

agreed

7:03 pm

no, it is rather weird. But a lot of women called Peggy are actually named Margaret.

7:04 pm

sprite, how is your King Charles doing?I put some new pics of mine in profile,but have not seen you since I did that. He much better to look at than the rest of my family

7:04 pm

bizzare

7:04 pm

asked my wife,she has never heard it either

7:04 pm

but we can move on

7:04 pm

lol Minver :) Yes, Terra is doing very very well. Still a ray of sunshine every day.

7:05 pm

for Crossy: "In search from A to Z they passed, And "Marguerita" chose at last; But thought it sound far more sweet To call the baby "Marguerite." When grandma saw the little pet, She called her "darling Margaret." Next uncle Jack and cousin Aggie Sent cup and spoon to "little Maggie." And grandpapa the right must beg To call the lassie "bonnie Meg." From "Marguerita" down to "Meg," And now she's simply "little Peg.""

7:06 pm

re+ to fasten the clothes on the line with wooden split dowels

7:06 pm

how odd sprite

7:07 pm

and there more info: http://tinyurl.com/9oh8ntn

7:08 pm

7:09 pm

This grid is so annoying.

7:09 pm

hi Bea

7:09 pm

7:10 pm

Hello all.

7:10 pm

hiBea

7:10 pm

I kinda like this grid.

7:10 pm

Gr 5/14ings everyone! I was a hi 6/21 and hi4/5d some monkeys at th 5/12 'O' clock today to help me get down to one word. I am almost finished so he4/4 is a story of hi5/12s.I am so gr5/14ful that I discovered Babbleand. I ag 5/14 with ot5/12 babblers that this is a gr 5/14 place to be.I tr5/10 myself to some babble time every day. Th 5/12 is no ot 5/12 place I'd rather be. I can wear any at 5/10 in Babbleland.Babblers make me gr 4/6 all the time with their silly chats.Also, Babblers are nice enough to put up with my gr5/16s about hubby.Babblers have big he 5/12s offering words of advice and sympathy. The only thing I re 6/24 about Babble is that I didn't discover it sooner. I can he 4/5 hubby getting ir 5/10 waiting for computer. I better give it to him so he does not fly in 4/4 a ra4/6 and start to th6/21en me & we have a he 4/5ed argument. I do hope you have found some more words with th 4/5 clues. I am going to get off my re 4/4 and go watch "Pi 6/21s of the Caribbean". I never saw it in the movie th 7/32. I will be back later on toni4/4 to help clue before I re 6/18 for the ni 4/4. Goodbye to all for now!

7:12 pm

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

7:12 pm

oh lovely, Min!

7:13 pm

Thanks sprite!

7:13 pm

Hey, Min. Back again for the last 17.

7:13 pm

nice, min. thanks, i got a bunch from that one

7:13 pm

Hopefully, some of your last seventeen are in my story.

7:14 pm

I got several from it, very helpful, and fun :D

7:14 pm

You are welcome Dorens and hello! How are you doing

7:15 pm

crossy: the same weird M-P switch is found in Molly-Polly.

7:15 pm

doing ok. you?

7:15 pm

hi Dorens!

7:15 pm

hi sprite. you up late tonight?

7:17 pm

yeah... can't sleep. Bit stressed and got a nasty cold.

7:17 pm

Jumping in to the weird name thing, I was shocked to learn that Polly was short for Mary in the old days

7:17 pm

sorry for that. i can never sleep with colds. in fact it is the way i can tell i'm getting one sometimes. no sleep

7:17 pm

really weird how some things go, isn't it Bugsaw. And hi :)

7:18 pm

Hi sprite. Nice to see you again

7:18 pm

maggie is everywhere!

7:18 pm

how can a 5 letter word be short for a 4 letter word?

7:18 pm

yes, exactly! How coolt to know I am not the only one!

7:18 pm

no, not short, it is more of a nickname.

7:19 pm

and vice versa, Bugsaw. I hope you are well?

7:20 pm

I discovered this when I was doing geneology research. A woman had a daughter Mary and when she remarried, her new husband had a daughter Mary. All of a sudden the Mary I was following disappeared and Polly was there. I found an old letter explaining why that happened.

7:21 pm

wild indeed,but handy when there are too many marys,margretes,or maggies around

7:21 pm

I am well sprite. I am SO enjoying being retired. I am just up from a nap *smileing*

7:21 pm

oh Bugs how lovely :)

7:22 pm

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

7:22 pm

i intend to join you in two years, bugs

7:22 pm

true, crossy. And that was often the case, I think, in the older days, when it was common to name children after parents, or grandparents etc

7:22 pm

bugs ,is there a celtic symobol for the 3 stages of man?

7:22 pm

Hello Minveryork. Thanks for the story

7:22 pm

yay, Dorens :)

7:23 pm

thnx Min for the story - very nice

7:23 pm

yw

7:23 pm

all the kids the melbourne clan had in the 50,s60,s and early 70,s seemed to be from the bible

7:24 pm

and middle names were often one parents or the other first name

7:24 pm

I don't know crossy but there is a good joke about that. It is along the lines of for each decade of a woman's life she has the wonderful characteristics of various extravagant countries. In all stages, men are from countries that are ruled by nuts.....

7:24 pm

once you trace our tree back before 1400,s it differs of course

7:24 pm

i know a lot of italian-american related mary's: mary pat, mary diane, mary beth, and you can only tell them apart by the middle name

7:24 pm

Oh, Min! Just looked at your beautiful Jack....and a handsome lad he is.

7:25 pm

hi peach

7:25 pm

less vowels it seems before then

7:25 pm

That is a Roman Catholic thing Dorens. All of Robert Kennedy's kids were named Mary Something but are just known as the Something

7:26 pm

Minver, your KCC is such a beauty!

7:26 pm

Here in the netherlands, even men can be named Maria as a middle (or 3rd, 4rth, 5th) name. If they are Roman Catholic, that is.

7:26 pm

uhhuh, bugs. makes sense (most italians i know are catholic, except for the odd italian jew here and there)

7:27 pm

Reiner Maria Rilke

7:27 pm

Thank you sprite. I LOVE him so much and I was never a dog person.He's just getting over some Lyme Disease

7:28 pm

My brother in law, who is a Swedish speaking Finn and not a Catholic, also has Maria as one of his names.

7:28 pm

Hello gapeach! How are you?Yes,Jack is so handsome

7:28 pm

aw poor boy :( But good that he is getting over it. Me neither, as to being a dog person. Always had cats. But Terra has stolen my he5, and not just mine. We all adore him. Funny little beauty!

7:28 pm

Min I did not know dogs could get Lyme disease too. How did you diagnose it since you can't see the ring under the fur? you were very fortunate indeed

7:28 pm

hi minver and everyone.. thanks for the help........... hevae been rather upset today as i had to take hubby to hospital last night......... he was having a copd flareup and what seemed like an apparent heart attack

7:29 pm

I always found that kind of weird, a man with a totally female name. I think it is meant as asking for protection from Maria, isn't it?

7:29 pm

aw smom, that is awful. How are things now?

7:29 pm

i shudder at the thought of doing our family tree again.my brother had one done 15 years ago by a u.s firm and it took 6 months and cost over 1000 u.s funds it was lost when his apt in nyc burned

7:29 pm

sorry smom. hope things are better now?

7:30 pm

so sorry to hear smom - is he ok now

7:30 pm

darn crossy. That is a real waste.

7:30 pm

welcome to the calming world of Babble sammysmom. You have had quite a scare

7:30 pm

thankfully it was not a heart attack, but a severe anxiety attack ... and it seems that a copd flare up is quite common every 6 or 8 monthes.... he is doing better today after large doses of steroids and may be able to come home in 2 or 3 days.......

7:31 pm

Hey there, sprite.

7:31 pm

it is indeed,fortunatly my da,s sister still has our original coat of arms shield in the uk,so we can go from that

7:31 pm

hope you're okay no. must have been quite scary

7:31 pm

Ready to go and waiting to tell me where we are meeting...gonna knock off my last 15

7:31 pm

sorry to hear that sammysmom. I have anxiety attacks, the first one I thought was a heart attack.

7:31 pm

glad he is in good hands and on his way to mend. As Bugs said, time to think of yourself and get your feet back under you... really frightening.

7:31 pm

that's good smom

7:31 pm

his bp was 210 over 100 and of course, they checked mine and i was damned near that myself........... but once he was stabilised, i calmed down too

7:31 pm

i wish your hubby a fast recovery sammysmom

7:32 pm

copd can be tough.fil had it

7:32 pm

hi LeslieAnn. I get them too sometimes. When you don't know what it is, they can be really really scary.

7:32 pm

sammysmom, sorry about husband.Hope he gets home to you safe and sound.I would be scared about that too

7:32 pm

thank you all for you well wishes....... i shall tell him... nite all

7:32 pm

yes. since i was only 25, i figured it probably wasn't, but it was still terrifying.

7:32 pm

give him our best

7:33 pm

Oh my samm...hugs and prayers!

7:34 pm

night smom, take care.

7:34 pm

Bugsaw, I knew that something was wrong with Jack because he was cryinig and yelping a lot. I took him to the vet & he tested positive for Lyme. He's on medicine.

7:35 pm

Goodbye sammysmom! I will see you tomorrow maybe.

7:36 pm

My cat just got over a bad attack of flesh-eating disease on his face. It was very fast moving but he kept hiding because of the pain and it took longer to get him to the vet.

7:36 pm

au clair de la lune....

7:36 pm

glad Jack is doing well now

7:36 pm

sounds bad, Bugs :(

7:36 pm

harvest moon tonight i am told,but rain and overcast here

7:41 pm

yay jilly actually sprite, i'm the school counselor, but was a guest in the advanced lit class cause their teacher was doing a bit about paris and i like it so much. I brought imported brie and blue cheeses, baguettes and imported confitures. and spoke french. told them when i was in fourth grade we had a teacher who came in and just sang songs with us and taught us colors, numbers, etc no grammar. nothing written. so they asked if i remembered the songs. and i sure did. sur la pont d'avignon, frere jacques et au claire de la lune

Hello all!

7:49 pm

hi gwen

7:49 pm

hi gwen

7:49 pm

5:45 on the west coast. Hi gwen

7:49 pm

Am I just rusty, or is this a bit of a toughie?

7:50 pm

it's a weird one

7:50 pm

i am not sure what it is to the tune of. if i had to compare it to something i would say row, row your boat. X equals negative B plus or minus the root of B-squared minus 4ac all over 2a, that's cute

i especially enjoy the market on albert-cuyp street and the large assortment of fresh fish .... love cooking for the guys

7:50 pm

not the easiest i've done, but not the hardest either, for this size

7:51 pm

fun song

7:51 pm

Well, i'm definitely rusty

7:51 pm

oh yes! The Albert Cuyp is wonderful. Fresh fruit and veggies as well. And not at all expensive.

7:51 pm

hi gwenski. It is not a real toughie, but definitely not a real easy one either.

7:52 pm

thanks LEslieAnn. I still spell onomatoepia by singing the Mickey Mouse Club song

7:53 pm

Congratulations sprite on your fireworks! Hooray for U!

7:53 pm

7:55 pm

Hello gwenski How are you doing? Welcome to the grid

7:55 pm

I love it Leslie Ann!

7:55 pm

... the moan of doves in immemorial elms, And murmuring of innumerable bees.

7:55 pm

lovely example BR

7:56 pm

lol LeslieAnn, nice cartoon!

7:56 pm

hi BabbleRable, how nice to see you. Poetic examples.

7:57 pm

I remember from latin class... ululare... wolfs howling at the moon.

7:57 pm

the last lines of Sir Alfred Tennyson's poem 'Come Down, O Maid'

7:57 pm

and sussuravit or something like that... had to do with whispering

7:57 pm

Madame Sosostris, famous clairvoyante, Had a bad cold, nevertheless Is known to be the wisest woman in Europe, 45 With a wicked pack of cards. Here, said she, Is your card, the drowned Phoenician Sailor, (Those are pearls that were his eyes. Look!) Here is Belladonna, the Lady of the Rocks, The lady of situations. 50 Here is the man with three staves, and here the Wheel, And here is the one-eyed merchant, and this card, Which is blank, is something he carries on his back, Which I am forbidden to see. I do not find The Hanged Man. Fear death by water. 55 I see crowds of people, walking round in a ring. Thank you. If you see dear Mrs. Equitone, Tell her I bring the horoscope myself: One must be so careful these days.

7:57 pm

Hi BabbleRabble! How are you doing? Welcome to chog

7:57 pm

I just looked it up BR. It is beautiful now that I am older. I hated Tennyson when I was younger because he took so long to say what he wanted to say.

8:00 pm

it takes an older person to know that when something is worth saying, it is worth taking your time saying it ;)

8:01 pm

or an Ent, of course

8:01 pm

too true sprite. I might have to reread Tennyson. thanks BR

8:02 pm

Close, sprite: susurrate

8:03 pm

thanks BabbleRabble :) That was it. I remember especially the whole class trying it out.

8:04 pm

Hello, Minveryork .... I am cantankerous and a bit stentorian

thanks smores, mine. great cartoon, leslie. dorens still there?

8:06 pm

i am shallow

if so i wanted to contribute to the male female first names thing -

8:06 pm

ok. am all ears

theres an anecdote from my late teenage years. A classmate of italian descent was called andrea, a commen male first name in italy but not in Germany where andrea is just known as a girls name. So all his life he always had to correct teachers, etc. When he was about to turn 18, as all of us boys, he was invited to physical examination by the army. But as the letter was adressed to andreas dimatteo, he wrote back correcting his name. A few weeks later he received a letter of apologies, never hearing from them again, effectively skipping the draft ;)

8:07 pm

great story shallow one. Probably the first time he ever liked his name

8:07 pm

haha. that worked. my name being Doren, which is uncommon, I frequently get letters addressed to Mr., as no one is sure just what I am

8:08 pm

good for him - bet that made up for a lot of ribbing in school

8:08 pm

that will happen more and more in the future Dorens with all the Taylors and Mackenzies etc

8:09 pm

oh that is priceless! Well, I really must go and hit the hay. My silly body needs the sleep it won't let me catch. *hugs* to you all and thanks for the help and the gr5 chat.

8:09 pm

I often got military types inviting me to join the WACs

8:09 pm

Be well, sprite

8:10 pm

either more or less, bugs, as it become more frequent that people aren't sure. we have many taylor's and morgan's in our school. i ever know. ni** sprite

8:10 pm

sleep well sprite

same here, good night guys, see you later

8:11 pm

8:11 pm

8:28 pm

Nice pic BR. Not the way I imagine you tho it fits the way you see yourself. you are still a mystery and mysteries are fun.

8:30 pm

BR is a great cluer so I am off on a food hunt before I get the heebie jeebies. (I thot of that earlier BR but was talking too much today.) Nite all

Russia is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma. ~Winston Churchill

(decoder) sheeesh... I would never have been a good "real decoder" !

thanks BR... meant that we had just "finished" eating ... I still have 3 words to go !

8:37 pm

What did you decode, Diane?

not much... but have just loved games of all sorts... mensa games, etc. so when I first got a computer and found online games, I just chose that name !

8:38 pm

Seems to be a good fit.

I could have said... I was a spy in WW 2 lol

8:40 pm

I worked in intelligence in Vietnam ... not the real high security stuff ... but enjoyed tracking down troop movements

and now it's my turn to say...seems to be a good fit .

8:43 pm

Bombs fell based upon the reports ..... war is a terrible tragedy

8:44 pm

Congratulations wvteach on your fireworks! Way to go!

8:44 pm

I acknowledge what I said is a contradiction.

8:44 pm

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

9:02 pm

Hello pe4/5winkle! How are you? Welcome back to grid.

9:17 pm

BabbleRabble's icon looks like the man who befriended MacCaulay Caulkin in the movie Home Alone. Am I right?

9:22 pm

he looks deranged

9:23 pm

Wouldn't want to meet him in a dark alley,that's for sure

9:27 pm

You are right Min. His name is Roberts (yes Roberts) Blossom.

9:29 pm

He also played Ezra Cobb in a movie called "Deranged".

9:31 pm

Molly, was Ezra Cobb deranged because he does look deranged as mab said. However, he was nice in Home Alone.Do you remember which scene I am referring to?

9:33 pm

I remember him from Home Alone. I didn't see deranged.

9:35 pm

I'm watching a terrible movie called "The Hole" about a girl who locks her friends in an underground bunker.

9:43 pm

I watched a bad one last week. Case 39. My friend made me do it. : D

9:44 pm

At least you have an excuse. Nobody made me watch this movie.Actually,I had movie on as background noise
