Flop.
all the trust i have built between myself and my babble buddies is shattered. what if you all aren't for real? waahhh!
The world is generally nowhere near as nice as Babble
{{{{Neil}}}} i need one of your hugs!!!
?
Really granny?
Aww Rose... are you on GT?
jilli, Neil, did you see what i wrote just before flip?
And what were you talking about/saying that for at 12:01 there Rose?
Well no... wasn't here.
I just arrived a minute after flip.
no -- I only arrived for the flip, granny
I saw the 12:01 comment yeah. But nothing before that?
We believe you're real, grannyrose
Neil, was taken in by a scam worked by a compatriot/company of yours. it has devastated me. it cost me over $600.
I know I'm real. Elisse can vouch for that.
A company of mine? Huh?
Hi all - for those who are interested have now posted a few pics!
I don't own any companies... sorry.
oh dear, granny!
I believe she means an American company up to no good.
hi liz
Hey Lizlin and yeah... see that. :)
* smiling through tears *. it has made me doubt all my babble buddies...and i don't like that.
Yes, Douglas... seems so. Lots of them around.
It has?
What have I missed?
Wow. I don't know what any of us have to do with your scammers.
But wow... ok.
hello everyone :)
well a lot of my babble buddies are american. what if you aren't real?
My hubby doubts everyone :)
Whoever is making us up has gone to a great deal of effort to create plausible people. Not just plausible people, but plausible nice and smart people
what "company" was this?
re 6
jilli. " all season escape "
me6
a travel company, granny? I've never heard of it -- thank goodness. Is a babbler connected with it?
So anyway... hi Douglas. Haven't seen or had the pleasure of meeting you before.
rh6
hello douglas
Wow Rose - just read back :(
Just googled them. They have a lot of complaints.. Average scam fee is 600. thats awful. cant you report them and get money back?
don't think so, jilli. but please be very careful who you give your details to.
Hello neil, jilli
I'm at nbt1, exactly 1 word from every tile with at least one word
Morning all......it would appear they're a Florida company!
ad7
I went to your link, Douglas. I was expecting to see some word puzzle site, because of the "crosswordbebop" name.
cos, my bank is onto it....in fact they were the ones who alerted me. it's sad really. i was looking forward to the trip they offered. it was to america...and all i could think of was..wow, i'm actually going to go and meet my babble friends in person. it's very cruel the way these peeps played on my emotions.
stats for the n, pls
ty for ad7.. nbs... need the n for nbt
I see there's a Florida one which is a scam, and a South Australia one -- are they related?
Oops, I need to fix my profile...back in a bit
same plural as the rh6
wait.. was this the trip you were talking about?
ty rasta
yw
Better now
hi all, just got here, what is the name of the company rose?
No Lickety so far? Or did I miss something?
oh, jilli, really? now i must contact my bank and find out.
nbt/nbs
lol....no lickety Jilli....
nbt/nbs
stats for the lone n or e?
ni5
ey 4
Neil, would you be kind enough to tell me what this is all about? You have my email address...
Just google All Season Escape and you'll see there are two

*bichon
ty bichon
hi jilli
Hi to anyone I've missed :)
nbt - need a 7 now
Huh Erda? What what is all about?
hi all!
about granny - I can't find any explanation...
Nan, you need to be cleverer to get the 7, if you know what I mean, and I think you do!
got ehe ad7, stats for the other 7 pls
hint for the ad7, peri, pls
don't think it's been found
peri is cleverer, nan
Douglas just gave a good clue for the ad7
erda, go back to just after the flip.
Well sorry Erda, no. It's really not my place to tell anyone about... Rose is present right now.
Ask her, if you want to know? It's yeah... a little further back in the chog.
On my way
got it, ty Douglas
ty Douglas
em6
everyone is cleverer!
night folks
Night bichon - sleep well :)
not sure what happened rose?
gnight bichon
aha -- nbs
I'm off too. 28 left for tomorrow. :)
Night rasta :)
stats for the other 7 please?
nbt/nbs
Oh. Saw you log in ru but you're gone again.
don't believe there is such a word any more than cleverer is a word! --- more clever and more ad 5?
ruru, was scammed today to the tune of over $600. made me very sad and distrustful of babble friends. but i have been reassured by Neil, and all is well.
flask -- sorry I didn't greet you properly -- thanks for the no Lickety announcement. Sort of. :-(
Neil -- Didn't say much, so I'll just file it under "None of my business, I guess."
whoops! just found th7 before I left! Good hunting, everyone
what??????????
I'm still not understanding what anyone on here has to do with that company, Rose?
And huh, Erda?
nan, ad7 skilled, proficient
more skilled even
Hey, no worries....I realised that!.....Hope yor well n happy
still don't know what company to avoid!
I guess it involves a Babble player???
I don't know what you're saying that to me for? I just didn't want to be emailing you about it when Rose is right here... and it's her story to tell, y'know?
granny, I don't quite see why you connect the rotten travel company with babble friends
Well I didn't think it did... does it?
Builds on ad 5 / 14 nan
whats the other 7 please?
Yeah, jilli. That's what I'm having trouble understanding myself. But... ok?
th7 i think?
OK Neil!! Thanks for trying...
erda, NO!!!! but involves an american company, and as i said it made me very distrustful and sad.i was looking forward to coming over and meeting you all....then it all fell apart.
Well all the details are already in the chog, Erda.
From Rose...
follows pattern of ni and rh .... now I'm really gone. Poof
It's sad that a few evil scammers make people so untrusting of everyone else
bye for now
i'm lost on this
tyvm rasta got it
Bye peri - sleep well :)
Hey Rose. That is horrible. Am sorry to hear that you have been subject to such horrible people. The internet can be so cruel. I hope that your bank is able to assit you with it. They are usually pretty good at sorting these things out and often will return your money if there is an unauthorised transaction.
Sure. But what do any of us here have to do with that company? How would them scamming you make you distrustful of anyone on this site? That's what's puzzling.
like i said, liz, Neil has stepped into the breach and reassured me.
Totally unrelated.
what company????
But it's true Rose - it makes us all suspicious!
Hoth, where one of the battles in The Empire Strikes Back was fought, is in the grid. Brrr!
I'm always being warned against posting too much info!
nan -- I googled it -- All season Escape
clue please for th7?
what threw me was that they knew my name, my home address, and my email address.
ty jill -- will know to avoid it
Doris (Day) is in the grid
all of that can be easily found by those who want to - so much info on the internet
most of these companies do make it their business to find uot this kind of information!
sad---but true!
Rose, why would be suspect of your BABBLE friends?
liz, and they phoned me on my home phone...which is an unlisted number.
ooh, that's spooky, granny!
Oh wow. How could they get that?!
Are you sure you didn't give it to them?
*want's granny's home phone to leave heavy breathing messages*
I guess because people who are intent on scamming really trawl all possible places - tracking cookies etc etc
<-- smacks ruru
Yeah right, ru.
:D
that's what i perhaps have first said...because i never give my home number on-line. only my mobile. i figure if they want to call me, they can pay for it.
<- smacks ru too!
HA
lol, ruru...only you, mate, only you
It may be worth running some spyware software.
clue for th7 please?
Yes. I do that.
hmmm, good point, demi
Good thought Demi :)
you can often find free downloads online, but any good virun checker usually have them now too.
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware is worth every penny it costs in my opinion. Wouldn't run without it protecting my computer.
Plus my antivirus/firewall, of course.
not liking this grid -- too many almost-words
Flask, don't have the th 7, but am looking.
just checked, demi. yes, we have anti-spyware software on our computers
Even have to protect my Macbook these days. Macs get hit now too.
thanks Demi
it'd be my luck to call Granny's and do heavy breathing and get Don on the phone..
Neither mission, nor remission are in the grid
Haha ru.
rofl, ruru. and don just grunted, lol
Wow Doug... you've been a member since 2006? Surprised I have never seen you before.
"Who Dat" isn't in the grid either, as in "Who Dat Say Dey Goin Beat Dem Saints?"
th 7: th + gypsy man + beginning of girl who lost her sheep
hey.. the grunting is on this end
I was around more often in 2006 and 7 than recently
I should hope it isn't, Doug. :P
not going there, ruru
gypsy man, nan???
thanx nan....
Glad you asked that jill?
yw flask
gypsy man?
ah, got that th7 -- think blood clots
Yes, gypsy man, the more technical name for them
th7.....think of a very serious illness with first 5 letters and then add 2!
gypsy man = rom
Yes... think vein blockages.
thrombi
What a great "clue" Flask.
atta gal, flask
LOL!
Oh shit!!!!....am soooo sorry!!!...lol
Thanks y'all.
*covers ears*
crashing here -- good night everyone :)
this is a nippy grid!!
*gasp*
I'm shocked. Totally.
Night nan - sleep well :)
*says 7 hail mary's for all the vulgar language*
:))
Haha! :P
done!!
lolol
gnight nan -- I'm crashing too -- farewell all...*poof
My Babble profile will put you to work then ru.
It should come with a language warning. :P
night jilli
bye jilli...
Night jilli - sleep well :)
are you kidding neil.. I'd have to check into a monastery if i read your profile
Maybe I need to say: "READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!"
Yeah well you don't wanna do that ru. It's not there to be read or anything.
BBL - sleep well over there :)
And I'm not kidding but I know you are ru... I've seen the language you use off of here. ;)
Running out of internet...good night/day all
hi everyone, and goodnight Douglas
Good night Douglas... take care.
Hey flosey.
bye Douglas
*puts on sacremental robes*
Pffft. :P
oh ru, please take a picture
That, on you ru, would be like a halo and wings on me... or something like that.
I can't flosey.. I'm not wearing anything else4
else
Ahh. Now that makes a little more sense.
pastor flasher
Hahahahaha!!!
Father ru
he cometh as he goeth
RuPaul.
Not touching that one. Leaving that alone!
oh please BR used that one on me a while ago
Ummm, not what I was tempted to say he didn't, I'm betting. Nope.
no lickety?
Oh wait... which did you mean?
haven
rupaul
haven't seen him yet chris
Isn't there? Oh well. I've stopped posting a stats list since it wasn't needed and I didn't want to waste time on that for nothing.
No Lickety, alas...
*waves to Dart*
Which has been pretty nice... less time spent on here, more time on better things. ;)
Is dart lurking?
like shopping for ipads?
That's... or was, an iPod, ru. Get it right!
pads pods.. who the heck cares..it's a good joke
thrombosis is a phantom
Yep. That was mine.
And finally... killed it.
A good joke ru? To you maybe. :P I'll never live that one down, huh?

Whew, Josh. I was about to ask ru how he could insult you like that... but I guess it's safe to. ;)

josh could give a rat's ass about republicans
there is a rh6 that is cousins with that th7
i got the th7. still looking for the ad though!
rh5 and rh6
I haven't got either it is indeed a thick day :)
Yes, ru?
He could give a rat's ass, or couldn't?
could
:D
Personally, I couldn't. Wouldn't be fair to the rat either, since it would be their ass. :P
Ahhh. Yeah. Or one could just "moon" them. :
:P even! Geez.
we could give the rat's ass for science
is there only 1 da?
i only have 1 so far granny
*cuts up tiny pieces of toilet paper*
yes granny
thanx legend.
Josh? You don't want to see what I do to them.

lets hope and pray that the fires are under control if not now then very soon.
I didn't realize you'd get pregnant if you stopped smoking?
diz, all quiet on this front too
i quit in solidarity with my wife after she had a serious asthma scare, so quite "easy" for me in that respect
it increases your chances ruru
<--- slinks away. (but have cut down heaps)
Oh my god ru. I quit smoking a while ago!
mine was a scare that stopped me too josh
cutting down is a great start grannie
I have asthma too Josh... I had to quit.
health scares are pretty effective that way!
sarah...it's a wonder that the girls are surviving you giving up...nah...it's no miracle...you are wonderful in your own right
thanx Medusa, been trying really hatd.
**hard
oh gosh you aussies must be sweating up a storm down there, so hot
i'm falling asleep. good night all

Josh, just waiting for the high temps tomorrow...feel sorry for the firies
Yes. I was horriied to read the tempperatures are up in the 50's centigrade/celcius? Holy CRAP!

much appreciated josh
would anyone care for any more lists before i slumber?
and wtg - pretty good for your first night back in quite a while
i'll be honest, flosey - a big part of my reason for stopping by is to get more practice for scramble with friends :)
good idea but I bet there'll be a lot of words they wont accept
they do put some strange ones in these grids!
good to see you, please do drop in again - even from time to time is nice
it's just good to stare at a grid again, perhaps there is something wrong with me (and all of you, obviously)
what are the stats for the top r?

ri4/5
and you're much faster than I!

top row done!
Hello, everyone! Can't sleep tonight so thought I'd try some Babble and visit with friends "across the pond" and Canada. How is everyone?
hi Mimi
i mimi. im much better thanks. how are you?
I better get to bed, 49 for tomorrow, goodnight all
I love tulips, too, flosey! Actually, ALL flowers.
are there stats for the f please?
Night, flosey!
good night flosey. sleep well
fi 4 4 fr 4 5 4
fo47. x 2. fr518
Got a tension thing going on, medusa---no fun. Just trying to stay occupied and not live in my head too much.
flosey, great to see you again, sleep well and hi to any regulars you see tomorrow please
thanks flosey. not good mimi
indeed I shall pass that on, josh
hope you feel better soon mimi
Hey, I'm a tough old broad!!
you and me both!
thanks for stats josh
You're not old, though---just a baby!
dont feel it sometimes. im sure you are not old
I'm 61 but there are days when I feel 100...but they're balanced out by those days when I feel 40!
see. they say you are only as old as you feel
Groucho Marx said you're only as old as the woman you feel....like his attitude.
i was gonna say that but thought better of it! lol
all i can say to that is the guy i would like to feel is 49 and i dont stand a chance! lol
When I was first divorced all these young guys came after me. I felt it was my DUTY to date them as a sort of retribution for all those years of trophy wives men got away with. The youngest I dated was 32 years my junior and I felt I had to ask someone's permission to go out with him. So I asked my daughter if she thought it went beyond the bounds of good taste---she told me to go for it. Alas, not much fun.
Why no chance with him, medusa?
good for you!
he is very well known and he dont talk to th fans on facebook. understandable though
Frankly, I've found that it's often more fun to imagine a relationship than to experience one! Have decided I'm done now....happy living on my own with the cats!
Hi again :)
{{Liz}}
hi liz. me too mimi
Got the pics to work Mimi - even posted a pic of Migaloo, the albino humpback, from when we spent a day with him!
Just checked 'em out, Liz---WONDERFUL. And you and hubby are just adorable!
ty
Didn't meet him til I was 49! Now have the love of my life!!!!
ok just hit the half way mark!
thats so sweet liz
I can't sleep tonight but am so glad I got to chat with you! Hey, doesn't matter when you meet as long as you do, right?
I was quite content on my own til then!
I don't think I've ever had the love of my life but it wasn't from lack of trying!!
Other relationships of course but not like this
right mimi
Now I don't have the motivation but that's OK. I'm good on my own with the cats.
Am currently reinventing myself AGAIN so have lots to keep me busy and happy.
i have 4 cats that drive me crazy but they re good babies, just typical 20ish month old cats!
Being happy - most important thing in life
i am doing that too
All 3 of mine were strays and they're the most affectionate cats I've ever had. I used to care for a tiger that was quite special.
Yes, Liz, it is. I'm glad my needs are few and that I can find contentment in ordinary things.
A tiger??? Awesome!
wow! that must have been cool. mine were all rescues that did not quite make it to centres. they were about 6 months when i got them from 2 different homes
Yep--raised lots of exotics at zoos and wildlife parks. Lions, tigers and lots more at a wildlife park. Years ago I raised gorillas, chimps and orangutans at a primate center. Gorillas are the BEST.
You've had an amazing variety of experiences!
i love gorillas! one of my fave animals. i would love to do something like that
Had one boa constrictor I grew fond of but don't much care for snakes generally---I like the animals fed to them better than them!
i had a pet corn snake
So far have avoided most of the snakes here! Long may that continue. i do not like them - do not should be capitalised!!!!
It's true, Liz---that's why I'm attempting to write the book. People have been after me for years to do so. Thought I'd have to write it as fiction since I wasn't sure I wanted to admit to all the things I've done but now I no longer care and feel it will just make me colorful!!
you will have to let me know how it goes with the book.
That's great. Enjoy the writing - go with the flow and just see how it turns out!
mt worst fear is spiders. cant go near them!
I'm taking sprite's advice and writing a little every day. She's good support for me.
help with the th7 pls
Good advice!
If and when it gets finished, will be MY fireworks!!
Hi, peri!

I'd never come across this spelling either!
you too mimi
I cannot sleep and now I am hungry :(
going back to bed to try for sleep again
Hot chocolate peri :)
BBL - popping in and out today
Good luck, peri---I think I'm up all night.
OK, Liz---check in later for my demotivator posting.
((hug)), Liz.
Usually catch those in the morning :) Maybe see you later Mimi :)
I know the th word because I used to do medical transcription. It's the pleural of the *****bus form.
howdy all - halfway, doin' good, but just can't seem to find that N for nbt - any hints?
Sorry, rbud...have insomnia and am kinda punchy!
ni5/16
plural of rainclouds Haz
ty, Haz, got it! (funny, had thought of that with a Y on the end, the "not in my back yard" abbreviation? - of course the Y isn't in the right spot)
You're welcome, rbud.
The monkeys and I are crazy tonight---seeing lots of phantoms!
I'm gone til later...bye, all.
nght, mimi.sleep well, hun

Sorry, not yet.
good morning granny :) Not me, just starting
morning Haz :)
darn, missing one
Good morning, sprite.
hey spritey!! and of course, haz
Hello, granny.
how are you,haz?:
I'm fine, finally managed to shake off a cold so back to normal energy levels again.
good for you, haz
ah that is nice. It is frustrating to be held back by colds etc.
I have little patience for not feeling well but just had to let the virus burn itself out.
s'okay haz...all in good time, as we say...
yeah that's the only way. As I told my doctor once: 'If you give me medicines for it, it will take two weeks to heal, and without them it takes 14 days.'
lol, sprite..so true re viruses
I resorted to cough medicine just to have the nice warm feeling going down my throat.
glad there are some relievers for the condition :)
I think time is the main thing but we all like to hurry it along a bit.
very true
Hi again - just here for a few mins. Wish you better Haz - benilyn was wonderful for my cough and helping me sleep at night!!!
hi Liz :)
Hi sprite :)
Yes, I did take Benilyn and I think it helped.
I know what you mean about that warm feeling!
okay, r's are..re4, 5, 4, 6, 6, 5, 4, 5, 6, 4, 5, 5, 4, 5...rh5, 6, 6...ri4, 5, 5...ro4, 4, 5, 5,

Wa4 ends with sometimes vowel

Wh4 as previous but ends in next alphabetical letter

Wh4 as previous but ends in cons - a kind of noise and pl
cannot seem to make that walk thru water one a plural
Wh4 cowboy command for horse to stop
It's the one who does the action.
Wh4 biblical who
Wi4 rhymes with snake noise
ah ok, that one I have. Ahhh women's organ(s) finished Ws for me

Of course it could be a th or tw I am missing from bottom left
I have 3 th and 2 tw
Only one tw from that corner t.

missing a to then, and that 3rd te.
From that corner t - th4,7,5 to4,5,5,4,4,5,4,4, tw4
Do we have stats for te
No, but by a process of startling deduction it has to be either 4,5 or 6.

hi ruby how are things with you
hi ruby how are things with you
hello jenny
it's snowing but very pretty
and I've just started and can't imagine the first n
its just damp and miserable here
ruby! Bobby received your package and loves Ruby
morning all :)
we're had days of lingering fog and humid, at least the snow is actually drier and much prettier
{Ruby}
{{annie}} that was quick! I mailed it last Friday
{{smores}}
He has a dental appointment after the workshop but he will write to you tomorrow.
congrats medusa wtg :)
he doesn't have to, I am just happy that it got there so fast as I was very late this month!
Hi all :)
I put the article you sent on the table to be read later...he enjoys getting a package from overseas. He said "She did it again" with a big smile.
Hey Liz :)
Hi Liz, smores, medusa
Pics loaded smores :) ty for your help earlier :)
that makes me so happy! and the article for you, Annie, is very interesting
{{lizlin}}
ni5/16what an arm is but change first letter + 3 vowel
Hi ruby and annie and jenny :)
YAY Liz, you are quite welcome....looking now
I sent Annie an article about descendants of holocaust victims and survivors are getting tattooos of their precedents numbers. It's a controversial idea, but I understand it
That's interesting - I dislike tattoos of any type but I can certainly understand
Never forget.
only in Israel, I think
my family just got killed, I don't even think in camps, just out in the open
It will probably spread and then cause controversy amongst orthodox, who don't accept tattoos!
can i have a clue for either of the 7s please
Still no list - sigh! Do miss lickety!
ad 7 - to be more skilful
is it true that, once tattoed, you can't be buried in a Jewish cemetery? But, surely, they had to have made exceptions for tattoed survivors.....
thanks Liz
tr 7 - think blood clots but with similar ending to the ni 5 / 16 you clued earlier
True I think - survivors sure they must make an exception - but in memory of survivors, who knows????
my relatives in London all have tattoos, nothing to do with survivors!
I have very mixed feelings
Love the pics Lizlin :)
Just not my thing though I have seen some nice ones! But also I've seen some I really dislike - but each to their own.
ty smores. perhaps you have some idea why I love whales!
I love Japanese tattooos, but only in photos -- have never met one
<-- still looking for the ni
Don't know that I've seen any or perhaps just not registered
Beautiful Liz, as is the one of you and your hubby :)
Type of clouds but not with expected ending
ruby, ni 5----think of Disney's fawn
Migaloo was just awesome and of course the mother and calf pic was just a fluke - hubby had no idea the calf was there when he took that shot!
ooo...I know he was pleasantly surprised :)
That calf was hours old - still dolphin coloured!
Awww, it's first pic :)
Not camera shy!
still looking for the faun
tombs
faun?
womb
ooh, sorry!
ty Ruby - I'd missed those!
teehee, thanks ruby :)
bad nel, going to the {PB, shamefacedly
may be left over brie,tarts and pie from yesterday :)
I hope so
Esp brie :) :) :)
What was the clue about a faun?
ni5 ends like...
ni and the last three letters of Disney's fawn
Smores, if you see stidg in the chog, tell her that I've posted pic of the terracing as it is at the moment, please.
not in my backyard lol
Ahhhhh - that one! Now I understand.
Will do Liz
ty
? what's not in your backyard ruby?
ni**y

OK - that's funny!
Good Morning, is there a list anywhere?

Air con should've cooled the bedroom by now - hot and humid tonight. I'll be back tomorrow. Enjoy your days :)
{{lizlin}}

ahh,yaaa for nono!
thanks Nono
i see you have a black kitty named miss shadow,nono.she should meet my black kitty.his name is sirrius black:)
Miss Shadow passed away this past summer Crossy
:((((((
i am sorry nono
you must get another black rescue kitty
I keep fond memories of her! She was nearly 18 when she passed
Crossy I adopted a tiger cat but had problems with it and now must pass on all kitties for a while
many shelters give away black cats because the adoption rate is so low,but i find they have the best temper,personality and are really loving and not aloof
:((
I agree, I have had many black cats over the years
if you are on facebook,i will post a fresh pic of our newest black kitty.his name is amos
sorry, I don't do facebook
must be off to get ready for work. hagd everyone!
tc lbd
bye dawger
you are probably better off,nono it is the crack of the internet
not to mention it is like gorge orwells big brother
george
exactly why I have stayed away from it Crossy
read their privacy settings and terms of membership and didn't like what I saw at all
omg my last word is one Crossy uses as a greating :)
Hello Babble Land!
Hi car. --How is your Mom?
She is fine. Had a good visit with the orthopedist yesterday. Compliance is still an issue and will be ongoing. Today's quote: Me: Mom, why did you take off your sling? Mom: I had to go to the bathroom.

And stalking is so socially unacceptable. Pffth.

oooh, tv diet tips includeing spaghetti squash. i love vegetables but i absoluted HATED spaghetti squash.
good morning everyone, is there a list anywhere?
lol...not a big fan either
I've just googled it, TO, amazing looking stuff.
Good morning flosey :) I think nono has one
matter of fact i have been very disappointed in all squash except green and yellow zucchini type
flosey, I think volleymomdee has it in her profile, also possibly sprite in babanon.
thanks Haz
You're welcome.
Okay, must head off to get some shopping done. Enjoy the grid!
trying not to check....I know that won't last much longer :)
Have you tried acorn squash?
bye haz, enjoy your day
Bye Haz...enjoy :)
no. i think i tried butternut.
not sure if I've had butternut, I found lots of yummy stuffed acorns recipes. By itself with butter and brown sugar is good too.
i think that is the way i had it prepared.
i saw a recipe for mac cheese by ellie krieger that used frozen squash puree
hmmm....never thought of mac n cheese with squash
tried stranger things though lol
it gives creaminess and reduces calories. it is pretty much hidden in there
Morning, all! Here's demotivator of the day. Picture: Arrow target. Caption: Consistency. Text: It's only a virtue if you're not a screwup.

35 to go -- taking a break to drink more hot tea and blow my nose LOL
oh dear you still have a cold?
*looks in herb collection* here is some echinachia
although the studies have been in conclusive as to whether it helps
here. . . lemon peel tea! i know that helps
got well for a few weeks . . . and now it's back
a bit better today -- thought it was the flu last nite . . .
well oddly enough there is conclusive evidence that chicken soup helps colds!
and I've been eating piping hot bowls of my homemade veggie soup! :-)
are you a vegitarian? i couldn
couldn't remember
not totally -- maybe 80%
alas the evidence is that chicken soup actually has something that really makes a difference
twas all veggie at mi casa during xmas while daughter was here
i've seen those reports too . . . bottom line, I think hot liquid is basically a magic elixir :-)
i was a veggie for awhile. . .but ultimately my love of ribs and steaks won out. . . no veggie subs for those
hot liquid definately helps. . .i prefer mine in the form of warm brandy with milk. . . (or without!)
i can stick to it pretty well . . . but I do occasionally crave meat :-)
what i could never be is a vegan. . . i would sooner starve than give up cheese
kenya was very hard for that reason. . . no cheese!
ohmygod, me too!!
i fortunately got some cheese the first week and then a grill cheese sandwich on the last day when i told someone how much i missed cheese
kudos LOL
stats for the N please
almost "Not In My Back Yard"
ni 5/16
oh, sorry -- gave you a clue rather than stats!
hey, teach :-)
it was very sweet of the guy. . . he drove me about 50 miles (which takes some time on those ro**s) just to take me to a restaurant that serve cheese
np une and ty and ty wv
nbt
very sweet indeed!
off to get dressed and take pups out to pee . . . in the rain . . . ugh
we wandered around a rain forest together and i hiffed and puffed and he had an epithany that if he really wanted to write he would should take time off to do it
he died two weeks later
i think about him sometimes when i get in a slump. . . life is too short!
stay relatively dry une. . .
those pups sure pee a lot
haha probably no more than most
now i am off to do some work with that story on my mind
bye all 85 left
bye jm
Hi does anyone know if there is a list anywhere today please?
yes Sandie, Dee has one
also Sprite
try volleymomdee profile
Thanks for the info. I'll go and look.
does anyone have a clue for me6/24 please?
me + most of a head wig
thanks ru, looking
me + T4
thanks teach
anyone have the re 6/24?
ME + element variants are iso****s
thanks Erda
sorry ru, missing that one as well
YW flosey
re6/24 color + not bottom
re 6/24 - compound word = color + not bottom
oh.. boy.. thanks
thanks Molly and teach
duh -ohhhhhhhhh
Right after that re6/24, there is a re 5/16 I am unable to get. Help please!! PLEASE!

YW flosey
ah, and that's fireworks
any clues needed?
guess not, I'm off to have breakfast, be back at flip tonight
N stats please?
ni 5/16
can someone tell me the number of words today? Thanks!
sorry flosey i just barely started and i dont have that one and no idea either
104
120 words
120
wv can you clue it please?
NI is about rain clouds, Latin plural
ni - think of a type of cloud - if you have rh 6/30 has same latin plural ending
dont have the rh either
plural ending for a type of shape
we dont have a U for the type of cloud
the latin plural use a different vowel for the last letter to make it plural
i am completely lost on that one need ot find others for nbt as well
rh - another name for a diamond shape - singular ends in us, but plural ends in just a vowel
ni+cons+ short for divided in two
if a cloud was in the shape of bambi:))
got both thanks:)
hi crossy, teach, MLF
hi bichon
howdy bichon

nm got it as soon as i asked for it
noun, plural throm·bi [-bahy] Show IPA . Pathology . a fibrinous clot that forms in and obstructs a blood vessel, or that forms in one of the chambers of the heart - th7
Is there a list?
Probably better to put just the definition, not the word, in the chat log
Sorry

whoo hoo cyber!
Thanks for all the help
never mind
WTG, Nan!
great clue,zooz, thanks
rh 5: rhymes with an incendiary device
Yw :-)
good clues!
any other clues wanted before I go and find myself a new book?
What is the other tw, not the multiple
tw + two vowels
latin plural mich
both a multiple - multiple number and multiple birth
ah, I was stuck on the wrong t and the wrong w, duh!
thanks!
Well yeah, if you're from Scotland. : D
i did the same thing mich. . . who'd thought there would be two tw. . .
nope -- just a scottish heritage
lol
OK, not bad feeling dumb if we are in it together. ;-)
We stand in dumb solidarity.
i wonder if scottish heritage is why i saw the number rather than the births first
*links arms with mich and molls*
We are won!
we three are won
*Note the dumb spelling
We will all be dumb; we will all be dumb; we will all be dumb todaaaaaaaaaaay,
I did, and do
found the tw birth first -- not surprising seeing has how we just had our tw grandbabies here for Christmas
All for dumb and dumb for nothing!
oooooo i do believe de** in my heart. . . .
we will all be dumb today!
i haven't sung in the chog for a while! haha
lol
thanks -- now that tune will be running through my head for awhile
and I was hear marching along to your tune...
haha
Rise up Dumb Nation!!
best time i ever sang the original of that song was with interacial and mixed sexual orientation groups of baptists at MLK's church in Atlanta
Now that sounds like an interesting story!
(the same baptists that lead me into sin in Utah)
it is the baptist peace fellowship. . . one of the preachers is transexual. . . a great group of people
getting more and more intriguing.....?
they me** annually for a peace camp in different places in the US and i have been to 4 or 5 of them . . .even though i am a quaker
Are you the only non-Baptist?
when they met in utah we were on a state campus and they held a birthday party and we got narced out by a student for the beer and wine
not always. . . sometimes speaker is non-baptist. . .
thanks to my methodist up bringing i can keep up with the hymns
I thought babtists and quakers were both teetotal...
*narc'd?
*Baptists
cyber you KNOW i am not a a teatotaler! hahaha
and the student was a Mormon?
yes and we said we would put it away or take it off campus but the campus cop said no that was not good enough it had to be pour out. . .
and i said well go right ahead i see no reason why we should do it. . . and the kid helped
You didn't ask if it could pass through your kidneys, before pouring it out?
the kid said. . . "i try not to drink" and i said either you drink or you don't drink . . . if you have to "try" you have a problem. . .
That's what I'd call a Party Pooper, I do assume you weren't getting loud and wild.
it was a moment of great solidarity with the baptists
no the party had just started and they really weren't getting loud
i wish i had thought of that cyber. . . one guy had the presence of mind to take his beer into the bathroom and finish it. . .
Why was it being held on a "dry" campus in the first place? Are all Mormons non-drinkers by their religion. I know Muslims do not drink, although some do.
so do some Mormons, when there are no others around
mormons are non-drinking according to their religion. . . and is was where the conference was at a STATE university it never occured to us
I mean, the religion dictates that they don't, but like in every other religion, not everyone follows all the 'rules'.
my mormon in laws all drank as near as i could see
but they are mostly compliant
you used to could barely get alcohol in utah back in the day and there were no bars and no cola drinks or tea or coffee
Caffeine is in the same class as alcohol? Interesting. I always say it is my drug of choice, especially if I am expected to get out of bed in the morning!
now they have lightened up and there are actually bars in some towns
yes caffeine is also forbidden. . .
Our son married a girl whose family were Mormons -- the waiters had to ask each table if they would prefer to toast the bride and groom with ginger ale or champagne -- I'm sure there were a few who would have like champagne, but didn't dare say so.
well it was nice they at least had a nominal option
when i grew up in the south no one but the mexican and the jewish weddings had alcohol. . . we all drank punch
But her parents were OK about other people drinking? We are religious Jews and I wouldn't provide Pork at a wedding, which doesn't mean it's not OK for others.
I don't know about Mexicans but for Jews, wine is a part of almost every religious rite, ritual and life cycle event (except funerals), but real drinking has never been part of the culture.
when i worked at the center i had to be careful who i drank around. . . there were people who would have quit donating if they knew i drank alcohol. .
didn't you hear? caffeine was ok when they acquire the majority stock holding in coca cola
.but i am with you. . . it is one thing to be observant and another to force it on others
That says a lot Cyber. Technically I am not allowed to own stock in Oscar Meyer or McDonalds, for example
well it is a religion of continuing revelation. . . just like quakers! hahaha
must be off -- back at the flip. Enjoy the rest of your day. :)
Yes, jmc -- apparently one of the elders had a vision!
really i did not know that mich. . .that makes owning most stock problematic for you i suspect
My day should be ending, time for bed. I am waiting for the chickens to come home to the nest.
well that explains why we had coffee on campus. . . at breakfast only
I think if it is a fund or mixed stock it is ok, but not owning the actual stock outright. I work with a religious broker so he checks these things out. There are enough companies that don't deal with non-Kosher meat for it to pretty much be a non-issue. I have no problem with Coca Cola or Starbucks!!
Not that I own that much to make me a player....
i always check for weapons, labor policies and green issues myself
which lets out a lot of stock!
Labor policies is a big thing for me too, and I try to lean towards green. Living in Israel, I have a different take on armaments - for us it is purely defense.
as a quaker with friends in israel and ramallah you can guess how i stand. . . we will agree not to go down that bunny trail. . . we can both be observant but not impose ;-)
Fair 'nuf
green is hard to follow . . .i personally have no use for carbon trading
Well, to be more honest, I try to avoid blatently non-green as opposed to pursuing green. There are too many things that I don't know enough about.
Does that make sense?
i have solar panels and a friend was trying to get me to sale my carbon something or nother. . .but it just lets someone else off the hook to me. . . i don't see how that is a good thing if you want people to do better about emissions
whay an interesting hog! Gren is very hard in france where labelling is poor and bio doesn't necessarily mean bio. And they bring in produce from all over the world, not like the old days when you could only get asparagus in Mqy, cherries and peaches in june, etc.
i miss seasonal veggie here too but we do have pretty good labeling rules
(typing the dark0 WHAT( CHOG*
*oink oink*
well it is time for me to wander off to the campus dining hall for supper before my class tonight. . . i am taking a course on marketing
Like I said, I don't know enough about it. Here houses have not been built without solar panels for close to 30 years. I don't really know the carbon issues.
we buy lamb at a halal market so it is pretty much kosher (and much better than the other lamb) and many of the arab products are marked kosher as well.
always nice to have a real conversation in the chog. . . good talking with you mich. . . shalom
I try and only buy local produce which tends to keep me seasonal. There are local hot house tomatos but they are as awful as winter tomatos anywhere else so we just skip them.
Shalom, great chat!!
bye all 46 left
*poof*
I GROW AS MUCH OF MY OWN THINGS AS POSSIBLE, THAT WAY THE TOMATOES IN THEIR SHORT SEASON ARE WONDERFUL
The halal meat is not really kosher rubyfoo, because kosher requires ritual slaughtering. The local Arabs have a great source of halal meat because they have the same needs as us without the slaughter.
Gotta run, my daughter just came home. A quick chat with her and then off to bed.
G'night all!!
**Poof**
shalom, too, and *wood*
we're not observant, but the meat seems better and cleaner
RUBY FEELS VERY STRONGLY ABOUT FRESH PRODUCE : D
and the arabs in the markets are very nice to me
So do I. And the produce in CA is as good as it is in Israel
<== sorry for shouting faux pas
the produce here is very good, but DH wants out of season fruit and, at his age, I guess he deserves it
green earth shopping is very,very hard.take hybrid vehicles for example.yes,they get great mileage,but those banks of batterys each have roughly 1 pound of rare earth materials in them.china "harvests" 98 % of the worlds rare earth materials and some of the methods are horrifying on a green mining scale
I only eat fruit from my garden (will probably get scurvy except for oranges which come from either Morocco or Israel) but Idon't use insecticies or fertilizers or even water very much and have brilliant tomatoes and fruit most years
I DON'T THINK THE HYBRIDS ARE A GOOD SOLUTION AS THEY STILL USE ELECTRICITY. pUBLIC TRANSPORT 9LIGHT RAIL SYSTEMS) SEEM TO BE THE ANSWER
sorry about the caps, so I'll say good night to my smart and earth-responsible friends
and they'd provide jobs
because of the distances that need to be travelled in north amrica,we are way behind many euro cities in public transport
I think the Dutch and Belgians do it best but those are very small countries
yes,andthe japans have the bullet trains
yes, but the Japanese have no natural resources and are at the mercy of the rare earth metal suppliers
imagine hopping on a train and at 300+ kph you are at work 200k away in minutes
yes they are indedd
I WOULd be very reluctant o take those super high speed trains in China as I think they've been built too fast with too much corruption and not enough attention to saftely issues. China scares me!
me as well
(escept the food)
mmm,chinese food...
I'm so sick of Fr food I could scream
the only decent stuff we eat is at home, woe is me!
sick of french food?! mon dieu!!
In order to get a realy good Fr meal, it is necessary to spend AT LEAST$100 person
if anything is everyday,the novelty soon wears off
maybe that's just this country region, but the food is awful
hi all, who has a list pls
sprite has one

good night everybody

returning to my hot tea and kleenex -- BBL *poof*
Reminder: Babble is inserting "\n" into urls cut and pasted into the chat.
I have my hot tea right here. not as stuffy but now have a cough :(
And use of tiny url website is best with any links posted
*Passes hot vegetable soup to Peri*
thanks Molls
I just made an avocado, onion and tomato sandwich on rye bread with some mayo and could actually taste it :)
Yummy...*wipes drool off screen*
I love rye bread but can't eat it much. It gives me a rash.
Molls, your icon made me laugh
I will make one for you too, Jilly
You can skip the mayo...LOL
I prefer rye with caraway seeds but this was fine
Just love avocados...
me too, Jilly and they are good for us too
I made a black bean and avocado salad the other day which is always good
Gotta move in with you peri!
:)
do you want the recipe for the salad, Jilly. it was in my profile for a while but not there now
Sure! Or you can post on my FB page
hi all!
Hello uusue!
Hello all. About half way done and just starting up again.
hi jill and peri!
hi gmere!
Hi uu. How are you this winter's day?
it might be easier for me to send it to you as an attachment in an e-mail. my e-mail is in my profile.
I am good, gmere! It is going to be rather springlike here for the next couple of days (then winter will be back)
jcdeppel@gmail.com
hi sue
oops, forgot to update my icon, brb
So nice to have a remembrance of spring.
good afternoon/evening/morning all
clue for the N?
But now I must *poof* to start dinner...homemade chicken veggie soup using homemade stock!
*poof* scratch...hello trentsnana!! How are things over the divide?
Starting to snow
supposed to get about a foot
How about you?
Been snowing here, heavily at times since last night
Don't have the n. Would like.
ni 5/16 kind of sounds like the Disney deer
They've downgraded how much we are getting. Started out at 18"
Fine with me. A foot is plenty.
just found that. ni5, it's a type of cloud, latin plural ending
ty
Trentsnana, we are planning a stay @ Chico Hot Springs in March...maybe we can arrange a meetup?
We are going there next weekend!
nity your clue was perfect!
Darn! If I had known, I would've booked it then.
thanks for the n, nbt finally!
and my new icon is up
Are you going under the winter special?
Good morning :)
for one of the nights. The other night is considered a "holiday" because of Martin Luther King Day.
Looking forward to it. We have never been there.
Have you been there before?
hi liz!
Hi Liz. Good morning to you too.
Have you?
Stidg - posted pic of terracing - remember, it's still very much work in progress!!!!!
hey all! (((Mother)))
For years! The restaurant is absolutely THE best food in this state!!
We are staying in Gardiner for two nights, too, and going into Yellowstone.
hi stid!
I am making soup for supper... ground turkey and veggies. Hope it'll taste as good as it smells!
I cannot wait to try it all out.
BTW, for another treat, go to the day spa for a river rock massage...
Doubt hubby will spring for going twice, but it would've been fun to meet up!
sounds good stud - but am full after brekky!
Had thought about the massage. Will see if hubby would like a couple's massage.
stid - sorry auto correction! But hey, stud isn't bad!!!!
Yes, we usually do a day trip from Chico through the Lamar Valley (wolves and other wildlife) with a late lunch in Cooke City and back to Chico for dinner.
lol, liz!
Liz! you got flickr to work! It's GORGEOUS! I love the way you sculpted the terraces. And the plants are beautiful. Is the spiky one with striped "leaves" some sort of yucca?
How r things Sue?
no worries, liz -- it's a common typo!
should I attempt this one?
How far are you from Chico, maybe we all could get dinner? Don't have dates yet...
we are good, liz!
Yup - will probably go to Cooke City and back while we are in Yellowstone. We need to get away and are very much looking forward to it.
A couple of hours' drive.
I shall look at the terraces now. Hi mama. Glad you are home Soup sounds good. We had soup for lunch.
Yes I think it probably is! It was by the path to our front door originally and only knee high but it grew and started attacking people who walked past! It's very spiky!!!!!
Now I must poof, but will try and stay in contact trentsnana as dates secure.
Will have to see. We have a lot going on in March this year, unfortunately.
your soup yesterday smelled a lot better than this one, but mine has WAY more garlic (home grown)! :-)
bye, Jill!
Later jilly.
Okay, let me know...
Bye Jilly - have a good evening :)
by uusue, hugs to you and Frank!
hugs back, Jill!
Thanks lizlin..will bbl
It's lovely, I am glad you put it where it can be its full self without hurting anyone. I did that with a couple kids today... *wicked teacher grin*
Bye stiddy
can I get stats for the 7s?
Love that wicked teacher grin - brings back memories!!!!!
The bougainvillea's amazing, too -- we can't grow them here, I don't think.
ad 7 /36 and th 7 / 44
thanks, liz! *thinks*
clue for the th7?
We planted the bougainvillea and it's finally beginning to be the way we want - we've open parkland at the back and it's a bit of extra protection!
blood clots that travel
th 7 - think blood clots
thanks, bichon! and liz! nbs!
thnx, got it!
shall I share a success story? I was in the teacher's lounge today trying to find the mailbox for the classroom I was in, and introduced myself. The other teacher I have subbed for in the building was SO complimentary! (this was only my second time there). I felt "loved" -- particularly when she said she was sad I wasn't available to come in for her next week.
yvw
nice, stid!
that is a lovely story, stid.
It's one of those schools where, when I walk through the doors it "feels" right. Some schools, not so much... but this one is lovely.
That's brilliant - just a few positive words make you feel so good
re 6/33, pls
Hope you get lots more work there - perhaps make your feelings known to them and they'll put you high on their list
:-) exactly -- and the kids today were just lovely, and the ones who were inclined not to be I was able to put where their energy was not going to get them in trouble. win-win-win!
re 6 / 33 - a colour + i*** state
Liz. Those pictures are great. I made two comments but don't know if they will disappear or stay for you to read. How clever you are to get the photos available for us. Thank you.
tyvm Liz
thanks for that re 6 -- would not have monkeyed it!
Bet you feel great tonight, stud :)
stid - sorry!!!!!!
LOL liz!! as long as ruru's not around, it's fine... *looks suspiciously over shoulder* he'll never let me live it down. ;-)
Don't see the comments but perhaps they'll show up later!
I'll try to remember to read before I post - but that slows things down! Have to go now - making bread. BBL :)
Let's see -- mother commented on one of the whale pics, I bet -- and something encouraging on the terracing one, right? *mind-reading mode now off*
later liz!
Yes. Mama, reminded me of my sister's Calif. house and the whales are so amazing!
indeed, it does! but it lacks the satellite dish doubling as a wisteria scaffold...
missing a pe5/12. I have the man's name.
thanks for the man's name
pe 5/16 I think peri?
it's like the pe 4 in front, with a higher-point tile at the end
no, a pe5/12 there are two of them
Well. There are differences, too but unless you've seen the frame of the satellite dish in action, it is impossible to see how it becomes garden furniture.
pe + I can ***ch if it were closer
oh, I wasn't paying attention, sorry peri
pe 5 16 almost another mans name but 2 vowels together
ty bichon. I hate it when I can't even see a word on morewords
hey poodletoes!
hey stidmama
Well. With 45 left and my brain full, I think I shall leave and take a rest. Love to all.
well done, Mother. have a lovely evening!
Fireworks!!!
YAY poodletoes!
hi all, poodletoes,stids 1 & 2, peri! Bichon,Liz , hope I didn't miss anyone!
wtg poodletoes!
hi scrambler
hey scrambler!
okay, so the N is completely stumping me. May I have a count for that one? Not ready to list yet...
ni5/16
ni 5/16
te6/21 anyone?
thanks peri
beautiful flowers tonight, corn lily, vinca!
te 6/21, pls
:-) ixia was in the grid the other day, so I had to put it in my icon!
te 6 /21 - te + colour + vowel
ty
Just here on and off at the moment
ty, but I already have that one. Weird
ty for that te 6
therer is only one te6/21
I'm confused with no Lickety
sprite has a list in her profile
I have the list. all of these words are driving me bonkers
oh gee, the latin plural of the type of broom harry potter flies. *sigh* *facepalm* *keyboard head*
thanks peri, now I have it! :-)
swmbo is in the grid today. Here's to swimmy.
Having a list and having Lickety's list are two different things. Lickety's list is so nice, putting all the words in their correct order. I always miss him when he takes a day off.
Hooray for She Who Must Be Obeyed! : D
well spotted, deutsch!
does anyone have a list on there profile?
I do.
hey shorty
It's Dee's list.
2 more
hi stid and tymolly
hi shorty
hi bichon
well, down to 41, close enough to take a break, I think. I hope. Have a lovely evening/day, all! *poof*
fw, ttfn
Hi all -- sprite's list is in BabAnon, below.
Thanks for all the great clues, everyone!
Sis!! How nice to see you ! How is the new car?
hi jilly 1 & 2! :3
LOL...
hi shorty,bich, molly!
Hi sis -- the "new" car is okay -- not nearly as nice as my deceased one, but it has AWD, useful for where I live.
Here too, we got dumped on last night by heavy wet white stiff
Yesterday I spotted the identical twin to my dear departed Toyota "Baby Lexus". Gave it a kiss.
*stuff
I had a most beloved Toyota truck a few years ago that was totalled. I cried....
Hi ya Scrambler!
hah.. hoth's in the grid so is ob4
hi cos!
This Subaru Impreza doesn't have all the handy cubbyholes for stuff, no moon-roof, no leather seats and steering wheel, less back seat room, smaller trunk. But it's peppy and has a nice tight turning circle (so did the Toyota).
love your profile cos!
hi scramb :) jill, jilly, .. ty scram i love hyacinth :)
i do too!
i lost my entire set on dvd :(
Darn Cos...that's too bad.
Well, back to the soup....bye sis!!
oh thats awful cos! bye jill !
bye sis!
what a difference a list makes -- and being awake! Couldn't get much last night, with no Lickety and fatigue.
over halfway now
wtg jilli
ty scrambler
oh bugger. who has a list in their profile?
I do LA.
sprite's list is in BabAnon, below, LA
thank you dear
It's Dee's list.
Sprite's list is clearer
Why don't people look in BabAnon for lists? There's usually one posted there eventually.
because i am lazy and figured someone would answer me quicker
Clearer?
I answered almost as fast as Molly, lol!
yes but it's only one click to molly's profilee
*profile
Clearer because Dee doesn't separate the sections and Sprite does as do others. Maybe you did, Molly -- I didn't look.
Yes, I always separate the sections. And it's okay LA, it's not a contest about the list. A lot of people post them, just to be helpful.
Ah, I see you did, Molly. Wtg.
em6?
em + the guy you work for
I mentioned BabAnon because when I got here nobody had mentioned having posted a list so I went there right away and found Sprite's.
aha thanks
I have the ho 5/18 but not the other ho5s -- any clues available?
oh -- just got ho5/14
Some people have trouble accessing Babanon. I'm not sure why.
and ho5/16, lol!
Jilly, I like your Jilly Bus. : D
Ho5/26 hello with a cowboy dialect
Maybe they don't know to look for "General" there.
Thks, Molly ;-)
tyvm RJ!
Now for the Ms -- but first, the cocktail hour approaches...brb
ok that was weird
what was, cos?
The Presidential Inauguration Committee just called.
Cool Cos, how is Barry?
Wow! They want you to attend?
not sure yet.. it was all vague
but maybe? I remember you signed Barry...and he signed back, right?
not sure if i have to pay.. i think i do and i wont... but ill know more tomorrow
ugh chat didnt send my previous message
I don't see why you would have to pay if you're invited
they said the general public tickets were sold out but they have some special tickets or something. not sure if its free or not
please send it again!
ah, I see.
An "invitation" to such things is not always free of cost.
hmpf
right. fun to dream though
You'd probably get a better view on TV -- but then, they did pick you out somehow -- or did you apply for general public tickets?
what on Earth are these rh's
Hi again - they're all to do with mathematical shape
no idea yet, LA -- all I see so far is a girl's name -- Rhoda
I only have two of them, leslie, like the beginning of a geometrical shape, and plural
similar also to the th 7 word
and hi again all!
i have tried rhoda approximately 72 times
similar also to the to 4 and the wo 4
hi sue!!!
well the middle 3 letters are!
hi jilli!
I have tried nimrod and rimrod 73 times.
I'm not as far as the Ts and Ws -- even the Rs yet
to 4 - family burial monument
ah - sue, the other rh is just a different last letter
wo 4 - part of a woman's anatomy
cos, think clouds -- or Not In My Back* (not Y)
One of the rh words ends in a vowel
me? i have that already but ty?
good clue though :)
so what were you looking for, cos?
nothing lol?
oh was just saying these are phantoms for me.. sorry!
O I C, cos, haha!
<-- dense
being dense can be fun sometimes :)
Now, back to the M search, where I belong
te6?
oscar noms announced today and i wasnt aware? how did this happen
te + perform again
no idea, cos -- saw that on my iPhone
helen hunt got a nomination? no idea she was still acting
Hello, I'm being dense. What are the stats for the lone N?
ni5/16
Thanks, sue
see ni clue at 7:22, jellen
yw :-)
Fireworks - with thanks to jilli for introducing me to morewords and to the list, which I took from sprite :)
hmf, meep should be a word -- or maybe it's meepmeep
yay liz!
Yay Liz and you're very welcome!
Guests arriving tomorrow so need to be domestic now! BBL to clue :)
Guests staying for a week!
But looking forward to it!
What a good girl, Liz! Cul8r
bye liz!
Good thing that she is a babbler too!
Arrgh! I thought I tried that!!
Oh? Who, then?
Thank you, jilli!
Yvw, jellen!
Who is the babbler visiting Liz?
hey all ((((((((JILL)))))))) about time you showed up before I was asleep!
Hi stid -- as usual, I arrived just as you left, earlier!
Lovely flower, stid
LOL we have (im)perfect timing!
too raight, mate!
thanks jill -- saw ixia in the grid the other day and had to do it. How are you feeling?
Improving, stid, but not there yet -- saw the doc today -- BP sky high from stress -- see him again next week. Stress should be subsiding, now that I have wheels again and that part settled. Sort of.
wow jill -- wish there were something I could do to help
No more Advil for the muscular pain -- bad for BP.as I knew, but it was the only thing that helped.
ah, same here, jilli, I have flexeril instead but it puts me to sleep
not that that is always a bad thing...
Just have to let my old bod help itself -- doc says I'm tough, lol!
he is right :-)
Jilli - can't write the name - always worry that people might be identified - then it tells them about the house being empty. Also will not ever put publicly when I travel!
He gave me some Ativan to help sleep with sore right side.
you're so smart, liz!
Wise, Liz.
Good thinking, liz! When I publicized my Canada babble trip, Frank was still at home
If the person choses to mention that they
they're here, that's up to them.
Tom rarely goes places with me -- he doesn't have a passport...
Good evening Babblers
hello wht!
down to 32 now...
hi wht
Oh, I still have 49 to go, this old slowpoke. Btw, the Brit term is (was?) slowcoach.
Ooh, passed halfway!
wtg jellen!
ty, Jilli
any hints for the me6/24?
me 6 / 24 - me + not bottom + vowel
Or depending on science knowledge me + iso****
Still is slowcoach!
It sounds like it would be a narcissist's favorite place.
Good evening wht.
Hi ga
animal photo bombs http://alturl.com/oih8m
Hi cos
thanks, Liz (sorry, I went to the kitchen for a bit)
op5/14 please?
I have op 5/14 as "chose"
Lol, Liz (re slowcoach) -- I'm bilingual -- Britamericanadian, remember?
Hmmm, jellen -- I have an op4 like that, but...
ooh, I see, silly me -- thanks, jellen
yw
pemiand now -- pe5/16?
scratch that pemi from the previous, please!
pe5/16 - like an equal.
Or like a Lord.
omg -- thx!
39 to go and I have to get supper -- back later, I hope -- ttfn
Just one more of the "Is that really a word" words in the grid today.
right, wht!
noun (Scottish & Northern England) a spinning top
t7 rb.
adjective: belonging to or comprising pe*** given to looking intently or pe**ing
Just had a typo turn into a word.
I love it when that happens
What is this about: "t7 rb." thw?
I meant ty, br
Fireworks.
congrasts wht
Hmmm...I tried to update my icon.
Congrats, wht!
Yay, wht!
bbl
Does anyone see my new icon?
after i did a refresh - yes
Okay, thanks!
I also update my profile...
Oh, there it is. Good to see you Jellen
Thanks, wht
Good luck with your studies.
Thank you! I'm anxious but excited.
What will you be studying
My concentration will be in composition and rhetoric.
Jellen, I think you'll do fine.
Helpful hint: don't ask the teacher "how long" a paper is supposed to be *wicked student-mama-teacher look*
My first class is a seminar on American Romantic Vision
lol stid.
hey again, had to rush off and grab kid from town early.
It has been a strange day...
Sounds like it will be interesting, Jellen.
I need to be going. Happy Babbling all.
Yes, I think so. I've already studied some of the novels we'll be reading in class, so I feel slightly more comfortable going in...
sweet dreams wht
Bye, wht!
:-) yes, getting some of the reading out of the way early always seemed to help me, too.
I think I'm stuck.
In the grid, that is.
I am at 32 and probably won't finish tonight. Have to be up early (assuming it doesn't snow) to drive teens and judge a debate tournament. It's a treat to do it, but getting going in the morning is harder than it used to be.
Stid, I am proud to say I made it to all but one class last semester, and it was an 8am class.
good for you!
and how is the teaching bit going now?
I start again on Tuesday. At 6pm!
** finito ** last word RE 6/33 which is a bohemian dance in two forms
yay wv!
Yay for teach!
YAY teach!
ah, something nice to look forward to! :-)
hi babblers - stopping in for a quick howdy
hi welki!
hey welki!
*gently puts welki in pb*
how are you holding up, sue? and pain relief? (frank's okay?)
you can try, stid, but i won't go willingly :)
which is for the word I was looking for... *puts lovely turkey soup and some pudding in pb*
well maybe for soup and pudding
:-D
broke the deadlock, welki! down to 28!
hope all is well in the frozen north?
it is frozen - we've had about a foot of snow since yesterday and temps are near 7F
brrrr snow was forecast for us, but so far we are dodging the bullet. We have had lower precip than normal for a couple weeks. It's weird. It's also colder than normal.
wind chills are pretty severe here - i walk about three blocks from where i park my car to work and it was a looooong walk back this afternoon
evening all! is there a list?
that wouldn't be any fun. It's mostly calm tonight, but yesterday was a bit windy
hey dan
I guess Sprite has one, and Molly posted Dee's list?
tx
Sprite's list is in BabAnon for allto see any time.
Hi again, after a winey dinner :-)
hey jill --
again
down to 19 and I am actually "done" I think. I have to be asleep in half an hour.
Good for you, stid -- 39 to go here and tee toodly to finish, I think ;-)
(Doc said I need to chill out -- BP too high)
one thing I don't have to worry about now is snow, with my slightly used Subaru and its AWD, I'm told.
but I seem to be talking to myself, and Coronation Street is about to start, so ttfn
firewords! tx Molly, Sprite, jilli & stid. re6/33 was my last
YaY dan2bit!!!
I must abed
sweet dreams jill
and YAY dan
and sorry all, got distracted by the dog, which means I am also too tired.
*poof*

yay!
it was the fairy word and that's fireworks !!
Congrats west :)
thanks beth and liz
beth is my daughter in law and liz is the second part of my daughter's nick name
she's Jolizabeth and we call her jo liz
that's a strange coincidence today!
my daughter is called corey liz by my family, elizabeth is a family name on both sides, even tho i am "just beth"
all in the family lol
its a lovely name
I've been liz since i was about 9 or 10! Full name only used by a very few family members - most now dead!
two granddaughters have Elizabeth as their middle names..it's so beautiful
Ok that was a brief visit - got fw this morning. Time to go to the gym. BBL :)
nice to see you liz
our beth is just beth too..her mom liked Little Women
i always wished I was elizabetth, the area where i grew up people tend not to say "th" so i was Bet to most of the adults and some of the kids, I never liked it...
'bet' is cute though
do you need help with your r words?
I asked my mom why she named me after the one who died in little women. She told me I was named for a woman who was kind to her as a little girl. Her family was very poor, and this lady took my mom to the dentist and made sure she had a warm coat. It made me feel better, but i still wished people could say my name
she sounds like a lovely person to be named for
my mom wanted to name me after her favorite actress..Hedy Lamarr..thank goodness she didn't lol
that could have given you some grief as a kid
guess that was a popular thing to do in the 40's..lots of Shirleys
I'm plain old Nancy
One of my best friends is a nancy, I like it. I think if you love the person the name becomes attractive as well.
nothing plain about Nancy :)
that's a sweet thought
hi nrkii
My "n" is for Nancy
and hi there!
conversely there are names i dislike because the people I associate them with are pukey.
hi nrkii
please to meet you Nancy..we'll have to start a club
Ruby is Nancy too
oh, didn't know Ruby was Nancy is Cybernan?
no..I thought she was but she said that's what her grandchildren call her
okay, she's not in the club :)
lol
I'm determined to finish this grid before it finishes me
4 to go
when we were first married my DH had a boss with a young son named Travis. Every day he would come home with new horror stories of terrible things the kid had done. As a then childless person I thought they were hysterical and promised to name a possible son Travis if one ever occurred. He did, and I did, and it seems the name Travis has some inherently bad childhood behavior associated with it. : P
oh no..a self fulfilling prophecy
it's still a good strong name
yep, no one to blame but myself. face like an angel but OMG what a kid. the family called him Khadaffi
My father wanted to name me Gilbert (I think he even wanted to pronounce it as if I were a Canadian hockey player). At the time, they did not expect a girl, because they had only had boys. My mother struck a deal... if I was a boy, she'd name me (Greg) and if I was a girl (never happen) he'd name me (Nancy).
oh no..poor you
And so... my mom and I share a name.
the poor you was for beth
our fourth child is a boy..after 3 girls we picked Maryanne.
thats fun nrkii, I like to think you being Giiiilbert
he surprised us and his name is Liam
I love Liam.
both great names
I will forever think of nrkii as a Canadian hockey player
he is married to our Beth
ha!
lol
I need to do some banking but can clue if you need help
I just got fireworks, but thanks
finally dug up a list... down to last word now
super !! Yay beth
wtg beth
and...
yay!
Yay nrkii !!
annoyed I missed the to5 that is NOT a Beatles song
New Christie Minstrels?
woot nrkii!
Exactly! Ha!
is that to*** while the blossoms still cling to the vine ......."
okay, I better run... morning is just around the corner
have a great night!
yes..such a pretty song
nite nrkii bless you happy dreams
good night nrkii..dream about hat tricks
:)
i miss folk music
me too..
Hello...
hi jellen
hi Jellen!
I like your hair cut
You know, there are some modern acts that have a remarkably folk-style sound.
Thanks!
Philip Phillips and Mumford & Sons come to mind.
the ones where you can understand the lyrics
I have seen Mumford..they are very cool
yes, we catch them on the fordham univ. radio station, but they dont get play on popular radio, and WFUV doesn't get very far reach
I have a lot of the old folk music on my iPhone now..almost seems wrong
you could create a rift in the timeline continuum with that kind of risky technology, west
:)
I hope so beth lol
I used to listen to the albums on my hi-fi
me too, When I was in 7th or 8th grade my folks got me a portable stereo for christmas with a handle that ran on batteries, my friends and I would take it, and our records wherever we went. the first walkman : )
found my last e and o
that was very cool..mine had to be plugged in
fireworks for you?
good job cos
naw.. 32 left. havent looked at a list yet.. not into it today
re 6/33 clue, please?
beth I was just thinking of those huge boom boxes
color and last 3 of the corn growing state
Thanks!
my kids had those, they never left the house with them, but there were times when we thought the house was going to implode from duelling boomboxes
yvw jellen
tyvm west weird word
sure is cos
ahh and ty for the re4 ;)
th 7/44?
those little 4 letter words like to hide
not sure jellen..maybe latin plural of a blood clot
let me look up the meaning
Excellent!
th4 + last 3 letters of N words
a fibrous clot that forms in a blood vessel..plural
may we never have them
loved ruru's clue for the n word..bambi's sister lol
cos are you all moved in and settled?
yes.. well the 2nd bedroom has a few boxes left but theyre all junk lol
that was very quick..you must be super organized
we dont have a lot of stuff
that's good
not really. we lost everything when idiot got his dui and lost his job 3 years ago.. been rebuilding lol
nothing wrong with starting from scratch
that way you can pick and choose
right but right now our furniture are 2nd handed.. but its something
some things are built so cheaply now that the 2nd hand stuff is probably better quality
right! we have a couch and a sofa from the 70s.. one is brown an has a woven feel.. ad the other one is dark orange lol
my cousin had a wrap around orange sectional..broke her heart to get rid of it
em 6/27?
it was quite a sight
Oh, nm
I want a sectional so bad! but the nice tan clothed ones :)
we never seem to have a living room big enough
stumped by top row N
latin plural of cloud
All I want is a sectional, a coffee table and the tv stand. im good :)
clouds, melon
couple lamps too?
oh yah i have a table lamp so i guess a small corner table for each end of the sectional
there you go
our furniture is almost set up like one anyway
The cloud I'm thinking of starts ni--, what next?
I think it's plural, melon
