11 and stuckaroo
pretty complicated--seems like you found it. Off to bed, the cleaning blitzers are coming tmr and MTJR is sending an invite to two poets journey to the holy land
one who uses an ro 5/10
sounds like a looped rope around the neck...
what makes so many of mine come up I sneezed but only onc3
I don't have that either
you must be holding down the "enter" key too long
I have the "either oar" one and it's plural I need the one that's all one-point letters. Usually I can work those out by trying every combo, but this one's tricky.
okgood night
ro 5/10... looped rope around the neck for hanging... just change the 1st letter... then the 6 is the "one who"
ah, missed the noose one. usually, no noose is good noose. and with that, goodnight!
gn mel and good job

hi ruby
jmc? Wht are you doig awake so eary?
just one of those nights. . . .
(typing 1.3 of the letters)
it is snowing yet again!
it is suppose to be snowing here but yet again it is not
this has been a very long, hard winter
we had one snow all winter and it didn't even cover the sidewalks here. . . a couple of weeks of bitter cold and that was it
we've had snow off and on for months with only two or 3 big accumulations. But in betwee, where there are usually soe sunny days, none
it's very dark and depressing for my poor husband
but it has been a very gloomy winter. . . hardly seen the sun. . .
did you get your puppy?
no, but we are still hopeful. She had surgery for entropion in onr eye and if it was successful we should have her....
when will you know?
she is still not 3 months, so that is ok and I'm gld they found the problem in Spain
I hope to know this week
yes better not have had her in your arms when you found out. . .
i hope it works out for you
I already love her though, just frorosiem the photo and her resemblance to my first dog,
Thank God for Ruffino! He has saved us
who is ruffino?
Ruffino is the one year old we got to replace Max and he is a wonderful dog, funny and smart an very affectionate
ah i missed out on ruffino. . . been not as steady a babbler for a while
pls excuse the typos; I'm still getting used to this eyboard
np
Always a dog drama with me!
:-)
I think husband just got back; see you later
{{jc}}
bye
he's back and being nasty AGAIN so I told him he's on his own
if he thinks I'm going to serve him his cocktails and such, he's got another think coming!
I understand his depression, but as Sprite would say "Talk to my hand (or worse), my head is tired!"
goooooooooooood morning fellow babblers xxx could i please have how many words today? xxx

Hello. Another puny grid with little that is challenging.

yeah, lots of those lately, BabbleRabble. Good to see you :)
morning, BR
going pretty well, dawg. And with you?
doing well, wish the weather would decide on either being icky or moving on to spring tho. i hate mud season.
today is rather good here... dry and even a tiny bit of sun. Am more than ready for spring as well.
Blizzard Warning here. I warned it I would get out my flamethrower.

Hi sprite and lbd :)

probably no school tomorrow...
No matter ... spring is still on the way
oh my predicted
and by last threee I mean storms
crazy weather. We had a lot of snow last week.
I really love the snow although my hubby is griping
True, BabbleRabble. It is coming. But it is definitely in disguise.
phantom: monitor
must be ruby's fault then
spring weather really doesn't hit here until mid to late April, generally
ruby in disguise with ....
what did ruby do to make it snow?
she be way up there
I promise not to mind a late Spring, as long as it is followed by a late Winter
then I will thank Rubyt

hi bichon and pida

ty sprite, and hi to you
Good Morning Everyone
I'm here in CT and it sounds awful for tomorrow, but it's going to mix with rain and freezing rain
hi River
hi River
mam - I am in NH - where do you live?
Keene, and you?
I'd suggest getting enough groceries and cuddling up indoors, mamcita
I couldn't believe when I heard on the news we are expected another foot
In am in Weare - 50 minutes from you
yep we are 12-18 inches here, but they have been off the last three storms for us so...
hello everyone
hi Annie :) How are you today?
hi Annie
HI Annie
another storm for NH, wow, enough!
hi bichon
and hi sprite and River
YOu said it Annie - I have had enough of this white stuff
we are down in the valley a bit so we miss a lot that the surrounding towns get\
good morning to all
Annie, it's going to be bad in CT also
Not me I love the snow
I live in a higher elevation so we get hit every time
bichon, how bad?
Although it sounds like a snow day tomorrow, that will bring us up to 5 this year!!!!
3-6" with freezing rain and plain rain
Conn actually sounds worse to me
Yikes - I havent been keeping track of snow days but I dont think we have that many - we were lucky that a couple storms hit during vacation week
we may get more but it is supposed to be pure snow
I hate freezing rain/sleet - rather have the snow
bichon, thanks, my grandson is playing baseball tomorrow trying out for the HS team. I hope they cancel it.
Probably the shoveling won't be bad, but the driving will be awful
wow that seems early Annie - they may have to do tryouts inside
its supposed to be a very wet snow again
We ended up with two days off this fall because of Sandy
river, I hope so.
my kids were always playing Lacrosse in March, practicing in parking lots whnere the was no snow
we still have way too much snow on the ground here for any outside tryouts....track is on hold until it melts
hi annie, river, bichon, (((MOM)))
name that proper noun, Don Quixote's sidekick

hi Sprite

pida, I have a link for Babble Expert, dont know if it is the right one but it worked for me about 5 years ago. http://licketysplit.googlepages.com/Ba\nbbleExpert12_FireworksForever.zip

Dawg ----leave out the \n in that address
BabbleExpert12_FireworksForever.zip (that's after googlepages.com/)

used to get up then and there were lots of brits on . .atalante and others
I think Ata still babbles and does Haz. I miss those 3 Brits.
i see ata in FB these days and almost never see haz. . . i miss them too
Haz still babbles but doesn't chat as she used to. She made babble fun with her great clues
i am sorry when people decide to leave the chat . . .the chat is what makes this a different game and one i do not tire of. . .of which i do not tire :-)
Haz, come out, come out wherever you are! The ! should get her out if she is here.

well i got the ro4/4 after typing it for the 4th time :-(
is that im6 word a strange one?
I'd say yes, want a clue

wd harry and yw
I know. I am allowed to do wall push-ups!
taking a break, bbl with fresh eyes
58 left for me
Hey, look at that, there's an X in the grid.
i have broken many bones in my life and every single one has come back to haunt me.arthritis,bone spurs,dead nerves in the area where they had to operate and stich me up like a old baseball golve
I see a lot of older women with wrist issues when I go to PT, jmc, so I could see that.
wall push-ups are good. . .i still don't do them from the floor myself. . .haha i am pushing off a bar about 3 feet from the ground
LOL, thanks for the hope, crossy.
I broke my 5th metacarpal (hand bone) last August when I flew over the handlebars of my bike, and that bone still aches.
a bar?
Poor Crossy
lol,sorry hokie
my flexion and extension range of motion is coming along, but I have to do a special splint 3x/day for supination.
look at all those o's!
watching workout moves now and they recommend spiderman until you have the strength for properpushups.
amazing how your muscles & tendons freeze up after 6 weeks of non-use.
what is spiderman? wall pushups?
oh, yes!
we should all get a babble meet going and compare scars;))
I got a brand new doozie, Crossy.
no. bring leg up along side of knee, alternating
LOL. I have had stitches several times, but this was my first broken bone, so I should do okay in a scar-off.
My abdomen has many scars, including a crucifix
mine is just riddled with stretch marks.
interesting Scrabs.
I have those too, hokie
well,at least you are good against vampires ,scrabby
can't join in this one. happy babbling
the only broken bones i have had were my foot from missing the last step and my nose from a agent provocateur at a demonstration. . .
lol Crossy
bye TO
lucky TO
Bye Owl
well i am off too. . .bbl. . . 57 left!
bye owl and jmc
bye TWAL (th*** who are leaving)
i have broken: toes (many times) , fingers x2 ,left leg (lower and upper bone) right ankle x2 ,bone spur operations on right ankle x2 ,right arm once
so,i have decided not to do that again
good decision.
I have a bone spur, arthritis, and bicep tendinitis in my shoulder, but it got better after a cortisone inj and not playing tennis. Now it is hurting again and I'm not even playing tennis. :-( And I'm not even 40 yet.
Oh, man, Crossy, You put many orthopods' kids through college.
of that i am sure.god bless the provincial health ccare plan
Skier's thumb, ankle sprain, herniated disks, knee sprain, broken finger, recent shoulder sprain
i did not count my three herniated neck disks as i guess they are technically not broken:0
Crossy, I had dinner with a guy from Dundas recently. He owns a home in our development so he can ski at the ski resort across the valley. Very nice guy.
very nice.i can see blue mtn out my window by my computer
fireworks
If I could find 2 more Rs in the 4th col, I could be done with the whole col.

I just read ansoodle article about snakes inn Ireland, sending it to
oops, hit the wrong key
there's a funny key on this Fr keyboard that looks like a fish skeleton and if I hit it with my errant pinkie, it garbles my sentences.....
I sorta wish all keyboards would match. My issue is that the delete key is different in all 4 keyboards that I use...
you use 4 keyboards! You must be a tech whiz
Between my two laptops, hubby's laptop and my keyboard at work....
I have enough trouble with my one
I finally got a new computer and it is vwery fast, so that's a big improvement, but now there is a lot of stuff I can't find
ruby, any news on the puppy?
no news and I thought we'd have heard by now
ty for asking
Puppy??
she was born on 3 January, so still is very young
yes, Jilly, Ruby died on 20 February and this is Rafaella, who lives in Barcelona with her brothers
I would like to erase February from my life!
Oh ruby, so very sorry, guess we haven't been on together for awhile. We share that month in mourning...had to put our beloved Tipper down 4 years ago...((hugs))
ruby, can you find a different puppy?
they have another female, but she is much less to rosieour taste and Rafaella looks just like my first chow
Jill the only good thing is that Ruby died in her sleep in her usual place and position and she had had a very good day. Her heart just quit
rosieour?
no. That is my errant pinkie -- Rosie was my first chow chow -- she is the reason I love dogs
Ours was such a hard decision to make, Tipper was still joyful but her hind legs were ravaged with arthritis and she needed help just getting up...
Burt gave her to me when I had the big C and she took care of me
I've been through a similar situation with putting a dog down. He was still eating, but I had to carry him outside
that's what happened with our Rufus; he couldn't move his back end and was very embarrassed
I did not know you had cancer rugy
*ruby
yes, in 1990
had very strong treatment and think I'm OK
I'm very lucky
And we are very happy you are!
that is very sweet, jill, thank you
23 years ago, that sounds like a cure
I think I bring a bit too much drama to the chog sometimes
Trust me ruby, you do NOT hold that 'award'....LOL
and I irritate several people.....
hahah
no drama too dramatic here for us
You don't irriate me
There's a BIG differene between sharing our life and drama...
*difference
I don't know; my nasty husband made a big point today about "not sharing personal stuff" and how proud he is of himself about that
I think he's wrong
Is he German <ggg>
lol
Tell him that is how we Jews are
bbl, tc
Ah..not us Irish...we let it all out...LOL
he doesn't get it, had a bad mother, I guess
bye bichon
I have a Jewish mother and an Irish soul
{{bichon}}
I have a leather sole
and now I have to check on the duck -- nellie's soy/plum duck
{{BR}} if I had an Arrow I'd live y our soul
love*
tell mr grouchy to buy a recipe book and get on with it
mr. Grouchy is a PITA
among other places
it would be easier if he were consistent, but the upp and down is very weearing
see you later, kids
be safe, Nellie
oh God, it was sunny when I came down to the studio and now it's snowing aAGAIN
aaarghhh
Oh ruby, I am right with you on the 'over winter' mood...
Bought daisies for my dining table after a couple of nice days, now there is snow and COLD wind again..
Time marches on .... spring will come ... or it will not .... not even The Shadow knows.
LOL....spoken like a true dakotan!
<----and FW for me....
Nice here in Mississippi! Flowers blooming and temps in the low 70's!
Well, heading out...too quiet in chog and must get busy! *poof* hagd all
dinner over. 33 words eft
Your new keyboard makes me smile ruby :)

hello everyone, hope you all had a good weekend :)
Hi TraderKate! Hello Babble Land!
hi car - very quiret in here today...
Quiet can sometimes be good.
Just stopped by to warm up my fingers for my typing.
Are you having a nice Monday?
this grid seems to be a bit of a stinker, just started, but i am sure i will have to list soon. Monday is not very nice here in southern ontario - windy cold and gray... snow/ice/rain on its way :((
It is on the way here for tomorrow.
yuk! friday's robin count was 0.... saturday's robin count was 6... now i'm worried they came back just a litle too soon!
We have several robins that stay all year round. They should be fine.
where are you? north east?
Yup. Just south of Boston
we've all been getting the late winter's last blast - more than ready for full-on spring here!!!!
Yup. Me too!
Would you happen to the have the i and the lower o in the second column?
thin
oops. sorry.
i'm very jealous of the babblers that already have flowers blooming and nice temperatures
i have the o ...ox 4/10, tell me if you want a hint
the I'm? it's I'm + a chess piece
Hi tee-jay! TY! I would never have even tried that.
i only have one 1 word - the preposition, not from lower i though
looks like i got apostrophe happy there. i think it's clear, though.
thanks teejay, scooped up that clue ;)
Got the o...ox 4/10
... remember when good comedy on tv was for the whole family??? like ro 5/18 and martin's laugh in...
I miss those shows.
carol burnette...
flip wilson....
That was my favorite!!!!!
:) me too
have shamelessly listed - not even half way
I am listing too. I won't tell!
tough little grid, its like extracting teeth without happy gas...
Ouch!
well, morp is not a wrod... gonna take 5, be back in a few minutes
I will probably be gone. Have a great day!!!!
you too car! hope the ice misses you tomorrow
i am missing one 6, can anyone help? have co, im, na, pa, pa, re, ro, wh, wo
sorry, leslie i only had two you already have... unless there are others? i have wh 6/33 and im 6/36
looked at the list, there are 2 ro6's
ro 6/18 and ro 6/30
veeeery interesting. k thx :)
oh it was silly. like a male rooster minus the t
oh crap
i meant to say chicken
lol, i'll take 'em any way i can get 'em ;))
i'll be in the pb if anyone needs me
it's been so quiet in here, there may not be any goodies in there....
that's ok i just had lunch
have you got all your 6's now?
no5/12 please
ayup. you want any clues?
a direction
i'll struggle along for now, thanks hi dispatch
omgosh!! I couldn't even see the simple one! Ty
i didn't get it till you gave the stats!
janurary, february, march...
lol...all th5/12 consonants jumbled together was a challenge for me!
Hello. Just getting started. Almost spring. Is that what you are counting TraderKate?
even with the list, it is still a tricky grid... hi stidggie, no it was sort of a clue for a fishy one
Oh. Months and seasons maybe. As I said, I'm just starting.
lol....... PB
oh rats. I see it now. and it is into the PB I go. I shall take my snack of jerky and sit quietly.
<monday free pass> it's too quiet for you to go in there, i'll be all alone....
also nice direction word.
:)
I'll whisper to you through the bars.
I have clothes in the dryer and not much else going on at my house.
I never thought about there being bars on the pb. LOL!
are you still getting the unusual weather there? you were getting a lot of snow, weren't you?
yes i imagined it like hockey. plate of glass, you have to watch everyone else play
for all the times i have been in the PB, i never saw the bars - there is some nice lattice though, with wisteria twining through it
We got a sprinkle of snow and hail yesterday in the great northwest. Sunny and green as Ireland today.
If there are cabana boys in the pb, wouldn't there be bars?
Got to bzz...pfft!
bye bea
are the bars to keep the cabana boys in, or badly behaved babblers with evil intentions out?
Oh, for the longest time I thought PB meant peanut butter so I was really confused why people had to put on peanut butter. Just a Babble feature, I thought.
ha. well we randomly talk about fish, why not peanut butter?
lol, smeaared with peanubutter and thrown into PB without a towel... ;))
Bars to serve the cocktails from in my thinking.
And we monkey things. That could be pretty outrageous, too.
ahh... much better! belly up to the bar and let the cabana boys mix up a nice mai tai :))
... it took me a while to catch on about the fish too!
You must know where your towel is. Rule Number something in Hitchiker's Guide.
I must pay attention to the grid for a while, Trader. Could you just drink that mai tai and swirl the swizzle stick by yourself?
... yes - Don't Panic, and always carry your towel with you... too bad douglas adams is no longer with us, i really enjoyed his books :(
;)
Me too. I think running a sandwich shop went up in my estimation since reading those stories.
wanted to visit the restaurant at the end of the universe, myself - what a floor show!
That would be a lovely theme park for adults.
also want to visit a slightly tamer version of jurasssic park :))
i may still have a picture of the pb somewhere. . . it looks like a lovely kitchen . . .
hi jmc! if you find it, show it to us please
found it. . . brb
It's in FM's profile.
i will go see if i can
here it is
lovely! how clever too! i will have to take a closer look at all the items in there... lolol... sign saying do not feed the trollls ;))
you see there is templeowl and peri and a pool for the cabana boys and an ice box for all the fish. . .
It's kind of squooshed in JMC's icon pic.
ah, when yu put it as yur icon, you can't see the detail at all, it doesn't "size up"... i had her in my friends list, so was able to see it that way
Lots of symbolism there I don't get. Must be for old time Babble players.
I see darts, a frig, a pool. Why would anyone want to come out of the PB when it is as good as it is.
still squashed but clearer
I don't see a hot tub. That must have come later.
you can still find her in rankings
the hot tub did come later but we can assume it is on the other side of the pool
i tried to copy/paste it to my profile so others could see, but it won't let me - there is a dart board for dart maybe?
Good Afternoon, Everyone.
yes i think that is what that is trader
hi nef. . . just looking at fmitch's pb picture
Lovely Blizzard of a day here.... (and I don't have to be out in it!)
There were 2 pics, weren't there?
i just came back from wandering around. . .cloudy but not too too cold
hi nef! we are all exploring the PB that FM put in her profile... what art! what an artiste!
yes there is also the one with dr god in it
Nice to see you molly, jmc and nef. Down memory lanewith PB.
58% of Americans now support gay marriage. This country has come a long way since 2004.
Hi stidg! I haven't seen you for a while.
This one? http://tinyurl.com/bsvy7fa
very true, cos.
BRB; need a sweater
That doesn't look like a penalty box to me.
that number is going up every year. . .
well that is what FMitch called the PB so it works for me. . .
yes that is the other one molls
one word left, a t5
arrrrgh
I thought The Clueriosity Shop one was another reference from old time Babble days.
I usually don't get here until afternoon here in the great Northwest.
Waiting for mael to fireworks. waiting, waiting.
haha, you might wait a little, I'm really stuck
t 5 hmm.
hi molly and mael :)
nm, monkeyed it! :)
a tr or th word?
back. Sorry, I'm freezing (I think from being sick, not the temperature here. I have a nasty cold)
done! hi kate :)
i am missing a th 5/12
it was a th5/12
YAY, mael!!! WTG!!!
yay fireworks....the cheat list really helps
poor nef! <passes heer a steaming cup of tea>
pastor, congrats! but the lickety's list is not considered cheating
YAY, pastorjbt!!! WTG!!!
lol...it is if you are a perfectionist
yay!
need a hint, kate?
I am mad at JBT, he beat me to the punch
as far as I know that th5 is a misspelling ;)
Congrats mael!!!
boo mama....I still love you
thanks for the tea, TK.
thanks mael, i have listed, and still have 2 hours to find 34 words, i'll struggle on for now, but thanks
well I'll think about whether or not I still love you LOL
hey..... :P
I agree about the th5
yvw nef :) hope you are better soon! gonna take 5, bbs
My first fireworks
Next thing you know, Enable will be allowing "alot".
yay Mama
YAY, mamcitadbh!!!
now I can love you again, JBT
ty nef
You are lucky mam. Most new people don't get fireworks that soon. You and smores seem to be advanced newbies.
whoo hoo mamc
thanx jmcnrick
whoo hooo jbt
ty molly, smores and i spent a lot of time at boggle before this.
thnx jmc
and certainly couldn't do it without lickety
gotta now get busy :( have a great remainder of the day all
bye mamc
bye
Well, if you're lovong the game; then you should join up! We love newbies here! A one time fee and lifetime of fun! :-D
Don't mind Nef, she's on commission. : P
i agree with nef
bye mamacita... congratulations and welcome!
LOL! Molly, it was the best $$$ I ever spent online. Why shouldn't I encourage others to join? (I *wish* I could get commission for newbies)
...speaking of joining up.. will anyone tell me who sponsored me so i can thank them and repay them...
even if it were a 100% commission you wouldn't earn that much! haha
repay them bye buying someone else a membership
i have no clue trader. .
yes, i thought of that, but i am not around enough to see many newbies
The only way to tell is that your date of joining Babble is your benefactors date (I think). There isn't any other way to tell unless someone admits to it.
i am pretty sure my date is my own nef...and i have been unsuccessful in gettting anyone to "fess up"
no my date is my own and someone bought mine too
you just saw pastor and mamc trader
No, you membership date is the date you become an official member.
*your membership
really, jmc? That was how someone tracked me down; so I thought it was still that way.
never saw them before today, though they do seem to know each other...
No, she is hinting that you should sponsor their membership.
i bet someone just ratted you out nef
i was thinking about giving one to smores, but she joined up before i got around to looking into it
i think she has been a wonderful addition to our little family :)
she was saying see doesn't see newbies. . . there are oldies without memberships too. . .but for some of them i think is a case of choice
mam was here the other day; she knows smores and someone else in real life (can't remember the name; starts with a d and is long)
yes smores is fun
I agree, I think some people are fine with not being pro members.
like anything, i think it is wise to see if they'll stay around for a while first
diane maybe?
very true, TK
i am only laying out options. . .i have no vested interest. . .:-)
hi all
no; to me the d person is a guy, but please don't ask me to think too much today as it's hard work.
first ro6?
poor nef, she is soo ill, her brain hurts ;)
one who does the ro 5/10 before it?
sinuses, TK. And throat and etc.
.. or the male chicken missing a consonant...
ty ty ty!
hi peri
hi sajarn
rotten luck nef! neocitran or chicken soup?
I am not getting that ro6 clue
NM
hi sajarn and peri :)
*makes bowl of homemade chicken noodle for nef*
Me either
toss out the "t" in the male chicken
the chicken that crows minus one letter
it was a new word for me
doing theVit. C; chicken soup and honey lemon tea, TK. Out of zinc; plus I've had a sinus infection for over a week; so doubt the zinc will help
its been in the grid once before. . .
have you neen to the doctor for antibiotics for the sinus infection?
no definition, but scottish in origin for the root of the word
thanks for the soup, jmc. Today I told DH I probably should go in and be seen; but going out in this blizzard isn't my idea of fun.
lolol... physician, heal thyself ;) hope it passes soon, sinus infections are not pleasant
no not a good plan in a blizzard
Nef, it's been blizzarding for a week???
the ro5 before it is a celtic word for heather. . . canna see how to make that into a person? one who heathers?
My head cleared up on Friday night, but it came back Sat. evening again. I'm doing all the "right" things so far
Do sinus infections go away on their own?
no Molly. THis blizzard hit this AM. Our driveway is snowed back in (the plow guy was by earlier)
aI'm doing the increased humidity, nasal saline sprays; warm packs, etc. to loosen it up and get the gunk out. That will often allow the sinsuses to drain and the infection may go away.
mh word defined... Electricity . the SI unit of electrical conductance, equal to the reciprocal of the ohm and replacing the equivalent MKS unit
it is the plural of the last name of the guy who thought it up. . .
Oh yeah, that one will stick in my brain.
just remeber ohms backwards . . . .
if i remember my grade 7 science class.. he made a hardness scale for minerals etc.... a diamond is 10 and graphite is 1
I had no idea you could get rid of an infection without antibiotics. I have learned my something new today.
most of the time, your body will fight it off on its own, as long as your immune system is okay, problem is that it usually takes more time than you're willing to give it... and all the pain/discomfort that goes along with it
hi back, jmcnrick-got lost in the grid, I hope you are well
a bit of a headache. . .i think it is from lack of sleep. . . work up after an hour for no apparent reason and stayed up until 5 am
Molly, if the infection is viral, then no amount or type of antibiotic will help. If it's bacterial, then you can use the antibiotics
yuk, jmc! That's no fun!
How do you know which is which?
I am coming to Colorado in July . . . if you are around maybe we can meet up. . .
no it wasn't but i got a lot of cleaning done. . .i have found that if i am not going to sleep that getting something done makes it almost worthwhile. . .
Fire works early for me. Have a great day. Going to warm up soup for lunch.
Since you asked, Molly;there's an old saying about the color of the snot
whoo hooo stidg!!
bye stidggie, congratulations!
green means?
YAY, stidgmere!!! WTG!!!
please describe it in technicolour nef ;)
Thank you all for your company today.
hoser is so a word..... ask any canuck!
you are welcome stidg. . . always delight to see you
"white clear or yellow, let it mellow; Gold brown or green; You need to be seen"
Hi Kate, something to tell you. Have you ever heard of the skating page, FSU. It has lots of forums and blogging. You do have to pay a small amount to get to the competition forums.
hi bichon
hi bichon.
i nef, jmc
hi bichon! hadn't heard of that one either.. for next season i will look into a few of them. i will have to set up a paypal account i think
try to avoid paypal. . .they cheated me. . .
i use credit cards and bank accounts but not paypal. . .
I think you do need PayPal. If you send me your email address [muffinbiscuit@gmail.com] I will send you the URL
I've used PayPal a lot on EBay, but can't say I've had any problem
they held my money for 2 mo5s claiming it was my bank but it was out of my account and my bank said they gave it to paypal. . .
I've used for years; I've never had a problem with i, jmc. How did they cheat you?
multiply that times the number of transactions they do. . .
*claiming that my bank put a hold on it
therein lies the problem jmc, bichon e-mail is c_k_skinner@yahoo.ca (not .com) e-mail is also in my pofile, i think... i will make a point of looking at it in the next few days - i haven't been checking e-mail regularly for a while
wow.
i spoke with the manager of my branch at the time. . .
Kate, I sent you the URL. The forums marked private are those you need to join for. I read it a whole lot. Lots of Canadians on it. You can tell, they love their skaters
they always say we are so suupportive and knowledgeable, but i wonder if they don't say that to everyone? i'd like to think that we pull for everyone and just want a really great competition regardless of nationality
I think so Kate. But I think the Canadians cheer and then some
i was screqaming my head off! for everyone :))
Did you watch the Ladies? I felt badly for Osmond, she has great potential.
gonna take 5, only need 5 words now. bbs
bye trader
watched all of it that was aired bichon. that was a lot of pressure for a 17 year old, thought she did very well under the circumstances, looking forward to watching her in the future. thought the whole competition was really exciting - held my breath more than once....
bbl
1/2 way
bye jmc, see you tomorrow
FIREWORKS! that was a toughie for me... THANK YOU LICKETY :))
Sorry, on a phone call. YAY,TraderKate!!! WTG!!!
last word se 5/18 9first one) a goat antelope of the genus Capricornis, of eastern Asia, related to the goral: the Sumatran se 5/18 is endangered
thanks nef. i can clue if anyone want hints - 40 minutes to closing timehere
hello again everyone :)
ANd if Molly is around; she should be glad to know I called the Nurse Line and told them my symptoms and what I'm doing for my sinuses and cold; and I don't have to be seen; just continue home remedies. (My nurse friend bullied me i*** it because of DH being immunosuppressed)
Hi smores.
Just got back from a job interview ( hate interviews)
Hi Nef :)
hi smores :) nef - are you using saline solution spray for nose? it helps..
Oh! How did it go?
Yes, maam (TK)
<---- crossing fingers for smores
I believe in that stuff; I actually make the saline , boil it and the containers and refill them.
just what i wuld have suggested... or the no name version... who needs "the science of the sea" brand at their inflated prices??
what position was the interview for smores?
I think it went well, of course won't know anything for a few days.
TK, it's also better for the environment. And yes, I use generic too
you must keep us abreast smores... details please :)
please do tell us, smores. My son is unemployed right now and hasn't had much luck yet; but he's still hopeful.
there have been a lot of small grids lately, just looked at the archives for what i missed on the weekend, hope wednesday's grid will be a good size
smores has been kidnapped... or she's on the phone lol
I suppose she has to tell others about the interview too. :-)
:)) i could use some good news in that department, been looking for quite a while myself; optimism fading christmas snow outside atm... big fluffy flakes... supposed to turn to ice then rain over night
do any of you lurkerz want clues? 25 minutes to closing time here
Hi again, sorry, got a phone call
where do you work, TK?
LOL ...TK
I interviewed for a shipping and receiving manager position.
That sounds good; have you done that before?
(I know zip about that type of job)
Company is called Smart Warehousing, they are a storage and fulfillment center for various companies.
Companies ship them them inventory and they store it until it sells and then they ship it to the customer.
*their
that sounds even more interesting to me.
I have done similar work on a smaller scale.
Have also done outbound shipping for Amazon Fulfillment Center.
Wow; then this does sound like something you'd be good at. (Did you tell them that?)
:) of course
But the job market is pretty rough right now so I'm not getting my hopes up.
Crossing fingers, toes and everything else for you; sending good mojo your way on this job. :-)
Thank you Nef :)
sorry, i went to take a quick peek at a figure skating forum bichon sent me the link to... sounds like it's right up your alley smores, wishing you all the luck in the world
Thanks TK :)
closing time is for the internet cafe i babble from - hence my only being on 4 days a week for a few hours a day :(
What time is it for you?
It's 3:45PM here
oh..so I'm 1hour ahead of you then
i'm eastern time nef, going on 5 p.m. soon
So we are on the same time then TK
ok; I'm just having a problem thinking I guess (I thought you were 2 hours ahead....)
I thought you were an hour or two ahead of me for some reason.
was exploring your recipes on your profile smores, will have to do some copy/pasting next time i have time... they sound good - and the tear apart bacon bread - scrumptious!
howdy again everyone:)) back for another kick at this evil little grid;))
:) yes, it is quite tasty...fattening as all hell...but tasty...lol
Hiya croossy
howdy smores;)
1 T left and not seeing it
speak of the devil and he shows up! :-)
hi crossy :)) have you seen the recipe for you on smores' profile? ... and the grid is truly evil today - forced to list at 1/2 way, very tired and even the fish were hiding
clue for re 5-18 the last one, please....hi all
the pull apart bacon bread? i have made these in the past.they are amazing but they even made my arteries gasp
yep, mention bacon and here comes crossy :)
:)
th 4/ 5 th 4/ 5 th 5/ 12 th 5/ 12 th 4/ 6 to 4/ 4 tr 5/14
sorry cgypsy...don't have it
try ... pale - again cgypsy
missing the 1st th5/12
that's ok smores....
the only re 5/18 I have is to plan again
:) ty ahhh traderkate u give good clues
I meant "plant again"
tonight is a nice simple meal cream of shroom soup and bruchetta and a dessert of burnt sugar butterscotch ice cream with baileys drizzled overtop
th 5/12 mis-spelling of to be dilligent - dotting all your i's and crossing all your t's or a road is also called a th5/18fare... with alternate spelling
thanks TK thought I tried that...same as the se5
ty,kate
that se was my last word! broke my monkey on that one trying to make another word with "sew...'
And I'm getting the red bars of death again
Thanks again...never woulda got that one :)
yaaa for kate!!
unfortunately, it is time to go have a good one all, happy babbloing, until tomorrow!
congrats kate!
Bye TK...have a great evening dear :)
ekkk...nef...not the red bars of death
Hi, everyone! Did anyone watch the TV show "24" when it was on? I'm watching back-to-back episodes on my Roku via Netflix....wow...that Bauer family has MEGA drama!
Hey Mimi :)
bye TK!
No..never got into it
(smores) You ever watch 24?
me neither, Mimi
Can't remember now, but it was on the same time as something else I watched...lol
You know, I couldn't get into it either when it was still running but it's actually pretty good and lots of people were totally hooked on it. Give it a try on Netflix.
Just might do that
24 was one of the best shows on TV. I liked some seasons more than others.
Currently getting caught up on White Collar
Be prepared, though---it's totally wearing me out! Their 24 hours is like anyone else's entire LIFE!
I used to like White Collar but just grew bored with it. The lead guy is "pretty" but too skinny.
lol
I like big men....OK, put those dirty thoughts away...
9 to go and all I can think about is burnt butterscotch ice cream with baileys!
LOL!
lol...too late :D
Yum.
:) cgypsy
Yeah, I already knew it would be too late for YOU, smores!
Who me? "bats eyelashes innocently"
Am waiting to hear if I got the job I interviewed for a week ago....and martini time seems to be here a bit early today........
fingers crossed for ya Mimi
good luck, Mimi!
Actually one of your better qualities, smores!! Love our sassy minds. Thanks...I'm keeping EVERYTHING crossed...which makes it difficult to walk and type.
Fingers crossed and sending good thoughts Mimi. I had one two weeks ago I'm waiting to hear on.
Just had 1 an hour ago...lol
Said they would decide by the end of the week though.
wow; sounds like we have lots of Babblers job-hunting
I'm not even here for the grid today....all I'm seeing are phantoms...I just wanted to connect with my delightful Babble friends.
Thanks, CadFan....will keep a good thought for you as well.
:)
It's hell being old and unemployed....if I'd known life would take this turn, I'd have planned better.
Thanks - good luck for you too smores
Thanks...hopefully all of us will get good news this week.
good luck to all of you. What types of jobs did you interview for Mimi and Cad? (smores already told me hers)
anybody else just get red boxes?
had to log off and back on again
i am soo glad i am semi retired.the job market is brutal here.us middle ager white collar guys are now fighting college kids so we can snag 2 or 3 McJobs to string together to pay the mortgage
good afternoon all - no red boxes here
howdy teach
hello crossy
Hi teach :)
hello smores - good luck with your job hunt
I had them a little while ago, smores
hi teach
hello nef
kinda weird...wonder if Mimi got kicked off, she rarely leaves without saying goodbye
Thanks teach
bit of a public notice here asfter a year of warning,microsoft is now rolling out its new outlook software and will be mothballing hotmail and its instant messanger.for those who instant message a lot i advise loading skype as you can use your friends email addy to import them over to skype and once they load im and get a user name as well you can chit chat on instant messanger there
mm,almost said that right,but you get the drift
Well, I must go start some dinner...not seeing anything else in this grid
Bye for now :)
bye smores - have a good dinner
red boxes of death again; will return later (after a nap) I guess. I finally gopt half way.
anyone have a clue for so5-18 please...
I am way overduepawn
so5 one who plants
ok---gone---later
hi all
ty.....fireworks!
whoo hoo cgypsy!
congrats cg
ty, ty..:)
anyone need any clues before I go get ice cream
throw one out just for the fun of it.
no thanks
that's always a good idea alibabas. . .clue the worst word!
never say no to a free clue!
nith
that is probably ni5 you are looking for there alibabas
hmm okay let's see how bout mi4-10, take ice cream and booze and mi.. them together with a past tense lisp?
I was just fishing and was in the wrong box. But thanks for the hint. I usually don't look at LIckety's Clues unless I really want to solve the whole thing. I usually get about 30% and that's good enough for me.
ahhhh....thanks cgyspy!
:)
i didn't look at lickty but that is the only ni word. . .
ty cgypsy
I got it...the ni word. I hardly think to use shortened words but then there they are.
there's a good cookie in the puzzle today.
well sometimes they is and sometimes they aint
not a word alas!
<---One of those oddballs who has never liked oreos
they are super-fattening
therm
Well then, there is ONE fattening food I don't like.
therm?
Oh no, now I have offended all the oreo lovers.
my beloved only likes the cookie part so i buy the christie oreo baking wafers instead
I only like the Halloween oreos
big news http://on.cnn.com/109fx0O
Wow!
very interesting.
yes I think liking oreos is darling
fireworks
whoo hooo cosd
hi ru and cosd
First there was The Sweetheart Of Sigma Chai, now The Darling Of Babble Grid : D
darling? an odd choice to discribe a cookie
Or Sigma Chi
Sigma Chai is a Tea Sorority
molls i made my sauteecabbage and onions in butter with srispy bacon on top with mashed potatoes (no green onions in the house) and i must say there were fabulous!
Who doesn't like oreos?
Anyway Cos, good news about HIV
yes a step in the right direction for sure! at least hope for babies. . . .
There is something about the combination of cabbage and fatty meat : )
well you can hardly go wrong cooking in butter and adding bacon! haha but it was unexpected good. . .i will cook it again i am sure
it just like i found out i liked collards cooked the brazillian style. . . chiffonade the greens and saute in olive oil with garlic. . . heaven!
HIV?
Cos posted a link about a possible HIV cure.
as my sister says: grease is great; grease is good; grease is unction for our food
oh.. that's great news
It is nasty cold and wet out. Great night for a fire and I have a big one burning in the fireplace.
it has been gloomy all day. . .
75 and sunny here
:D
we have darling weather
:-p
in california
It is 79 and sunny here.
but no spring to speak of. . .
hi invictus. . . didn't mean to ignore you
It is ok.
and i KNOW there is no spring in Texas to speak of. . . haha one of the joys of having moved up here!
There is a spring, it just happens in winter. My poor boy and his allergies are going nuts!
Spring that happens in winter...sounds like hell.
redbud trees in jan and feb. . . wildflowers in march and april. . .the hillsides covered in blue bonnets and indian paint brushes and buttercups are pretty amazing. . . did the drought kill them this year too?
The stars at night...are big and bright...
*clap clap clap clap*
actually my favorite texascentric song is: i'm going to leave, ole Texas now, they've got no use for the long horn cow. . .
they've plowed and fence the cattle range; the people there are all so strange. . . .
i'll bud adios to the Alamo and set my face towards ole Mexico. . .
Hello all. Sick as a small hospital all day. Sorta overdid the whole shamrock-drowning thing. Feeling well enough to sit up & eat a lightly boiled egg.....
hahah *bid adios. . .kind interferes with the mood!
hi soodle . . .sorry you don't feel well
okay i off for a while. . . 37 left . . . *poof*
Wait, what? You said you didn't drown any shamrocks.
Meh! St Patricks Day is 24 hours, yo? (Still in Breaking Bad parlance)
Are you up to speed with Breaking Bad yet? If not, where are you? You haven't gotten the best of Jessie yet.
I'm stuck into Season 4. I'm trying to space out watching the next episodes, cos I know I'm gonna have to wait for Season 5. (I need instant gratification - hate this waiting & wondering!
FINSHED!! VERY EXCELLENT!!
The first half of season five is available on a pay per episode basis on Amazon. The second half (and series finale) airs this summer.
Well done Godth.
Congrats, Godthaab.
Whoo Hoo Godhaab!
I need an i6 for fireworks..any clues please?
clue for th5/12? (I already have th + red r***)
im + the shop where you bought The Golden Girls
Oh shoot, I thought that was Cos asking. Shop where you get money for goods that you can buy back later.
Thank you.
Thank you.
th + a m***n, a half-wit, a numbskull
thanks, molly
Son of Soodle brought a pal home with him from England this weekend, to savour the 'Real Saint Patricks Day'. The poor lad is in a catatonic mess!
Good for Son Of Soodle for teaching the poor deprived lad how to party like the big boys.
Slight exageration!! He's pretty badly hungover, but he'll live to fight another day!
Well that is what happens when you spend your life sipping tea. : P
Lol Molly. My house resembled the last days of the Somme this morning. There were bodies strewn everywhere...
Isn't that the proper way for an Irish house to look the day after Saint Patrick's Day? : D
Soodle, love your icon. I have a t-shirt that says I'M THE IRISH WOMAN YOUR MOTHER WARNED YOU ABOUT
Mammy Soodle sprang into action, and delivered rashers, sausages, black& white pudding, mushrooms, tomatoes & fried potatoes to the troops! Nobody died!
I'm a firm believer in eating away a hangover.
However, what you all see in black and white pudding I will never know.
I moan & groan, but actually I love having the craic with the youngsters ..,,,
I wa
I wa
Spit it out
And no eggs with that breakfast? Saints preserve us.
Its actually a song.... I was going to sing... Lol
Thats the next verse, eggs and eggs....
So what are all the alcohol metabolizing youth doing tonight?
All in the recovery position, Molls. Paul has returned to the UK. The whole performance will be repeated in two weekd.....
Weeks....
Well, that is a respectable amount of time in between.
And Mother has time to heal her weary self and be ready for round two.
For sure Molls. I'm girding my loins as I type!
Your loins had a party last night? WHEEEEE!
wow.. talk about King of the beasts...
oh.. that was loins
Is it the Fifth Amendment I should plead here? Whatever. No gorey details. Sanctimonious silence!
Sorry. No invoking The Fifth Amendment by Non-US citizens. No wonder the kids were partying down. Mom was gettin' busy elsewhere. Hoo-ah!
Saint Soodle of Babbleonia has no comment!
Sounds like the shamrock wasn't the only thing that got drowned last night. Ahahaha!
But *cough* yeah, *sputter* all you did was *laugh* drive the kids around *cough*
yes! gory details!! filth ! smut! inquiring minds want to know!!
Good luck with that. She has some backwards notion that she must present a pristine persona here. Even though we all know better. (Half naked trampoline stories)
pristine?here?? lol

evening, all
hello
Hi CNT. I'm just returning myself. I kept getting the red boxes of doom earlier; still have 35 left,but heading forbed soon
I like CNT - I used to be TnC but had a foul up so I had to change my name. Good to see you.
hi penquis. I don't think I've met you before!
I have not met Penquis or Bugsaw
i have been more of a lurker... ;o)
Bugs has been around for a long time.
I was gone for a long time
Hi Molly
it's okay to lurk. Usually when I look (after thinking I'm alone here); there's somewhere around 60-100 lurkers here. But whether they are really "here" or off surfing the 'net is debatable.
Where have you been CNT? Life changes keeping you away or what?
My sign on didn't work, then I got a job, then my dad passed, life got crazy and it is starting to settle into a routine,l so I came back. I miss my word games. My kids are bigger now, too, so they can handle a few things on their own.
You have 2 kids, right? are they in elementary school now?
I do - great memory! Tea is 9, 10 in August and in 4th grade and Crackers is 7, 8 in July and in 2nd grade.
:-) I haven't lost my memory yet! (Good news for me.)
They are both in the highly gifted program at school and the homework is getting harder. ;)
I'm being paged to help with bedtime. Nice to see everyone - I may be back.
I'd like to stay; but I think I'm going off to bed now. This cold is kicking my butt.
Good night, All. Happy Babbling!
hi all. A question. Did stidmama have a dog named lucky?
helloooo
Hi all. Am watching a collection of movie clips with manicial laughing. it is quite amusing
this is for CrackersNTea if she comes back. Look out for Rastapopolous who lives s of Carson City and is a wordsmith. She has lived in Reno, and has family there whose kids might match up with yours.
I want to be a lurker.. but I have too much to say. :D
*just snuck in to try and finish*
hi pini.. let me know if i can help
Oh, trust me, I'll be a callin' on ya!
