hi sprite!
ew this puzzle is gross :<
ew this puzzle is gross :<

hi nenia, is it?
i think so. It's hard. :D
the smaller ones often are. But they have their own kind of charm
good morning and {{hugs}} sprite. hi nenia, yes the grid is tough tonight.
hi rose :) *hug*
hi rose!
so close to idiot
why is cred not a word?
fuuuuuuuu
who?? you or me?? lolol
both of us, lololol
some words double back on themselves. my last was re4....thought i had entered it, and hadn't...duh, me. had the re5 after it though....lol
lol I know the feeling. One of those grids, huh. Ah well, you know things are bound to get interesting when your very first word is a babblet (the hawaiian goose).
and no-one warned me about the volcano....and i missed the b. thing. agghh!
the b. thing?
the b....y, thing. (red stuff )
ohhhh that thing :D
you'd think that a firespitting mountain would stand out, but noooo
yes....lolol. tryinh=g not to swear, it is sunday. but i am a lost cause...lol
yeah, i know. how many times does it have to be in a grid, for us to see it straight away?
my daughter 'curses' by saying Pindakaas! Which is dutch for peanut butter.
I am pretty good with the volcano. I stink at the ocean and the asea. Can't boast about spotting the orient either.
oh, and the ahorse. Also hopeless.
hi all. that is a great swear-word, sprite! reminds me of my favorite fake insult, Erdnussbutterkopf (peanut-butter-head, in German)
i say shiitake sometimes :D
oh lovely, Gwen!
lol nenia, good one too
*giggle* gwen.....my second son used to call his older brother penis breath or penis nose. which cracked us all up.
the germans can build words like nobody's business. Erdnussbutterkopf, I need to remember that one.
lol
"you big tool" -- Canadian insult. many possible interpretations. LOL
my name is almost in the puzzle :(
over halfway. Now for the hard part.
americans call each other tools too :p
so it is. You are a phantom today, nenia... a word that is almost in the grid, but not quite.
sometimes i say, "if he were any bigger of a tool, they'd be selling him at home depot."
hehehe, could be insult, could be compliment
ooh a phantom. *looms in the basement playing a pipe organ*
:D
lol, nenia
lol, I love those kind of insults. English is full of them. One can short of a sixpack, etc.
or his driveway doesn't go all the way to the street
roflolllll oh I love that one
or the hamster's dead, but the wheel keeps on spinning
or about someone dressed up but none too smart... all the lights on but nobody home.
or a sausage short of a barbeque
lights are on but no one's home
snap, nenia
lol
an acre short in the top paddock
devastating insults and not a bad word in them.
one sandwich short of a picnic
a catalyst short of a reaction
oooh, rolin, that'
lolol hi rolin :)
f my favourites
back... my girl got up and we had to cuddle for a bit
Hi all :)
hi Liz :) *hug*
Early morning cuddles - with anyone - are great :)
oh yes. So warm and soft and sleepyheaded!
Sad me - only Styxx left!
awww Liz :( There is a spinoff about Nick, haven't read them yet but they might be good.
nice sprite, i love early morning cuddles too. hey ya liz girl.
bottom row done, woot
Hi Rose - how's your day been?
wow Gwen, you rock
It all seems very sluggish here today - entering woods and the chog.
quiet thanx liz.
here as well, Liz.
Ah, but your day is only just starting! How was your girlie get together?
nbt, woot
Ah - the sluggish comment!
hilarious, Liz. Laughed so hard :)
good job, Gwen
Can imagine!
sprite, did they have anything you haven't already got?
hahahahaha lots of things, rose :) Also a lot of things I don't even need or want. But fun stuff as well.
so your beloved is in for a surprise?
absolutely. Some new play stuff, always good for inspiration.
did you get the red satin and black lace, or go with the virginal white?
Yay. Found an 8!
I aim for in between, rose
wooot Liz!
2 of them in fact!
yay, liz, well done
now I am jealous, Liz
But neither connected to a 9 I suspect!
As if!!!!
my new word for the dictionary today: crediot. Someone so stupid they will believe anything.
sprite, i aim for in between too, wanted to know what you would wear while doing it....*snort, snort*
LOL! I found a great one for you the other day but then completely forgot it!
oooohhhh! You must write them down next time! Can't have forgotten brilliant words!
Greetings Friends
*giggles* Usually nothing, rose. Eventually.
Yes, I only thought about that when I'd forgotten! Hi Pugs :)
hello my darling pugs *hugs*
{{hugs}} miz pugs. how's sleeping beauty today?
Hugs and Hi and Love, Liz, Sprite and Rose
the needlecase is a phantom too today. Jeez.
I feel great--got some good sleep for a change ---Had a hard time getting into babble though
yes babble is being temperamentful today again. Glad you could get in and even more glad you slept well. *hug*
nice, pugs. that you had a good sleep, that is.
How are you ladies?
I am pretty good. Slept okayish. Woke up too early, but happy to be in time to see you all in babble.
oh, found a 7 and 2 related 8s.
yeah, Babble is still acting up on me
quiet day here, pugs. feeling stiff today, and it's not don...waaaggghhhh
here as well. Incredibly sluggish in entering words and posting chog posts
too bad, that could more easily be helped, rose
what have you done Rose to be feeling like that
finally got the 9
good for you Sprite:)
lol, not that good, am almost done and was left with almost all the biggies.
I got 10 so far-lol
Ah! Temper tantrum over!
nice going, pugs :)
Let's hope so, Liz
pugs, i woke up during the night, covered in hives. not thelittle red spots, but thebig one, which look like insect bites. really irtchy too. don't know what caused them. i am thinking stress. would explain the lethargy and general achiness last night.
Poor Rose - hugs
aw sweetie, that is not good. *hugs*
took a double dose on antihistamines. still have the blotches, but thetareflat now, not raised lumps.
what are you stressing about Rose
stress is so insiduous
stats for the 9 pls?
she's stressed by bees
insidious? Tsk.
ca9/72 Liz
I have no ideal what stress is--lol
Hi Ru
Hi Ruru
Thanks, Sprite
lol ruru, and hello. Who is your icon for?
probably because i am being made to go back to work. i am finding it really tough this time. i so do NOT want to work..but i guess once i am a bit further on, i'll feel okay about it.
hi guys
I really really think you shouldn't do it, rose. I think your body and mind are conspiring to tell you it is not a good idea yet.
hi ruru. nice to see you.
Hugs Rose---why cant you retire
When can you give up work full time?
darn boxes
3 years officially, liz
fireflies, against all odds.
WTG SPRITE!!!
Congrats, Sprite :)
pugs, i don't have enough super to retire on.
like gas granny?
a big *hug* to my friends. And may you all have a blessed day and a peaceful night
Have a good day Sprite - half way here and also out of here. Hugs :)
haha, ruru. superannuation. a fund we have to pay into so that we can retire without needing a governmaent pension.
hope your day is kind to you, sprite, dear
enjoy your evening, liz
bye Sprite--hugs and love
Iam having trouble with the site bad this morning
yeah, pugs, it's being a real brat.
did Liz leave too
yes pugs, her last post said she was going.
I got red boxes and missed her and almost Sprite too
were you able to go to service today Rose
i was too sleepy from the meds for the hives. i didn't even go to deacons footy match.
footy match?
Hope you feel better in the morning--You have to work tomorrow
you're playing footsie with the deacon?
c'mon ruru. australian rules football, nothing like american football. deacon is in junior league.
well.. pugs was talking about service here :D
true, but not from the pit you are in-lol
deacon plays footy after we have been to church. we usually go and watch him.
ah
i lied. . . .
that's a sin jm
i said that the next time i signed in i would be in the USA. . . but i am still in china
they offered me $600 to take tomorrow''s flight. . and i said give me a direct flight and a hotel with food vouchers too and you got a deal. . . .
so here i am in a hotel til tomorrow
how long is a "direct" flight
from 6:30 pm to 8:pm on the same day *giggle*. . .14 hours . . . .
before i was taking a 13 hour flight to chicago and then transfering getting home to DC at midnight so this is a much better deal for me. . .
wow.. I couldn't take that long a flight in one stop
but the $600 turned out to be a airfare voucher :-( I can't imagine when I might travel again i am such a homebody. . . ;-)
one hour more to avoid a transfer seemed like a good deal . . . .
i guess
i paid extra for the slightly larger leg room. . .well worth it to me
5 hours to NYC is about my limit
the difference between a 14 hour flight and a 13 hour flight is not much. . . both painful in their way
yeah i would generally rather drive but haven't figured out how to drive to china, africa and such. . .
maybe its time for me to work out a meet up in GB
who else is near Green Bay ?
some one in michigan?
I don't know anyone in Michigan
i would drive there anyway. . .
back to bed for me.. safe travels jm
nighters ru
good morning
good morning ruby
hello jmc. |Your trip sounded fantastic! Are the back in DC?
no i took a $600 voucher and a hotel room and stayed one more day
nice
and the new flight is more direct to DC
Sounds like a good idea
*saw ruby's light on, dropping on to say hello* g'day precious girl, how are you today?
goodness granny you keep worse hours than i do. . .

hi jm
i is straying an extra night for some cold hard cash and a shorter trip. . . .
9 left , time for a break.
hehehe i mean staying
maybe straying to if i only could
JM what kind of law do you practice. I have son in DC
mmmm. . . hard to answer. . .tax, probate, demonstrator/first amendment, conscientious objection/military, and a little of this and that
is he in law school?
my son is a consultant and writing is dissertation for a PHD at the London School of Economics
my my very impressive. . . LSE is quite the school. . .
well if you come to visit please let me know. . .i love meet ups. . .
I have no idea. I can't keep up with him. He is in the National Guard. When he joined the military and did three tours we didn't get it as we are a pretty left side family on many things. At least he is a democrat
crossy is back. Well, that was a pain. For some reason my Chrome browser had selected the LAN proxy settings option and i could not connect to the interwebs. Had to de-select it and reboot.:(
lots of democrats in the military
That would be great. My email address is marc108@icloud.com
yes more democrats in congress have served than republicans by more than double?
my email is my babble name at gmail. . . let me know when you come over. . . and if i get back to iowa (i have been to Washington Iowa a number of times) I will let you know
i think in part some dems feel the need to prove they are not soft. . . but lots in the military. . .many military supported my work
my former work that is. . .
I am 20 minutes to Washington. Our town is very unique. What do you don in Washington?
yes please let me know
Crooked Creek Camp and my dear friends . . . damn blanking with age here. . . . my dear friends. . . .
Roger and Mary Ann. . . .
Farmer!
Roger and Mary Ann Farmer
Well they will know about Fairfield. We are quite famous in Iowa.
They are Mennonites and were big supporters of my work in conscientious objection. . .
yes? do tell.. .
Look forward to it some time. Back to babbling
:-)
Annie, I agree about deserving the gorgeous weather. I dreamed about days like this in the pits of January.
sorry i am missing it. . . raining here
Molly, Me too. Everytime it snowed and the wind blew gale force I said, that's it. Im going to Fla. but I stuck it out.
I see we have no list today. Maybe Lickety will come on later in the day.
I would love to move somewhere warmer. Alas, my kids have put down roots here and I would rather stay close to them.
volleydee has a list i am using
i have lived somewhere warmer and i prefer DC
I have Dee's list in my profile, if that helps anyone.
thanks jmc
at least we have seasons. . .
ty molls i hadn't looked at your profile. . .
I understand staying within shouting distance of children. I also do not want to uproot Bobby.
Thanks for having the list, Molly
My youngest, who still lives with me, has a great job here. I would hate to take him away from that.
morewords in china is interesting. . .

Hi Annie and Bobby. Does Bobby follow hockey? If so, is he thrilled about the Rangers?
think what used to put you under for an operation marc
marc ne6 = REGIONS - OTHER FOR BOTTOM BITS OF FPLKS
scrabbs, yes, he is thrilled about the Rangers. Also the Mets won the game in the 14 inning so happy for that.
oops should be + regions
or what you fish with plus female of him
Tonight the Kings and Hawks play to decide who will play the Rangers. Buffalo's Patrick Kane plays for the Hawks.
but his disappointed about Okla. Thunder out for the season
*sigh* the news from Thailand is bad even when translated by the chinese
I take it you are a big Ranger fan.
What news from Thailand?
Yay for The Amazins!
the coup has made protest illegal and subject to a military trial with no attorney and 2 years in jail. . . but so far the protestors are using "hit and run" protests where they stand with a hand across their mouth until there is a sign that the military is coming. . .
scary stuff. . .i wonder if i would be that brave. . .
easy inthe US to forget how little oppression there really is in comparison with the rest of the world. . .
yes, jmc..grateful to live in this country
me too even wh** i disagree. . .
Especially the oppression of women in other countries.
i have friend in syria and nigeria and thailand. . . hard times for all of them. . .
Terrible times in those countries.
yes molls the honor killing in pakistan was horrible. . .I get so angry with some of friends who argue that we cannot tell people how to treat women if their actions are based on religion. . . but people forget that slavery was based on religion as well and yet they would never support that. . .
finally got the ne

And that has reminded me to transfer laundry from washer to dryer. BRB.
Respect for the office I can concede .... respect for those occupying it is another thing ... one party is emulating the do nothings of old ... the other is an assemblage of feckless cowards.
Hi Crossy and o-o
I personally respect the country but not necessarily the leaders. . .on the other hand i think we as voters (or nonvoters) bear a certain responsibility. . .
anyway i am off to sleep . . . see you in the morning. . .

Respect is earned, no one in office now has earned it, in my opinion.

There are some good bands in that line up.
I dont know them though

Bare Naked Ladies, Blues Traveler and Howie Day are three of my favorites.

sniffling :D
*raises flag for Pen's fireqworks*
I went looking for my violin, but couldn't find it.
that's because it's little molly .. tiny in fact
are qworks interstellar oddnesses?
*notices the non-response from Penq*
fireqworks are what Miley Cyrus does for 4th of july
notice no help from anybody on the big words, sniffling
Yeah, you can't blame that one on auto correct
Ruby, two 8's. Both end in liquid measure. Re and de.
Liquid measure as in there are 12 of them in a bottle of beer.
ty, Molly, looking but can't find the measure...duh
(The Brits can't seem to fathom that liquid measure)
*notices how Molly knows her beer measurements
Well, at least I never referred to a twenty-four pack as a "two four". : P
Thank you for spoonfeeding me
"here comes the airplane ..heading for the hangar"

Ru, there are a lot of good bands in that line up. You don't know any of them?
I'm not keeping up with new music molly sorry. I don't listen to the radio much
I'm tired of puking when they play one direction songs on the radio
Bare Naked Ladies and The Gin Blossoms are not exactly new kids on the block.
I don't have a clue as to their music.
too many years of no music with mrs ru..
I will be getting a nice stereo at my new place and will get back into music next year.
Neither is Blues Traveler and they are worth seeing just to hear John Popper play the harmonica.
Mrs. Ru doesn't like music?
Blues Traveler I've heard of.. don't know their music though
she likes classical music
Oh *yawn*
If I hear the Lark Ascending one more time.. I'll take a hammer to my head
I have been hanging out with blues rock and roll musicians since tenth grade so that stuff is pretty much in my blood.
plus listening to music would cut back on Oprah and Dr. Phil :P
Oh *puke*
I love blues-rock.. I saw Johnny Lang last year.. he's freakin' incredible
Unbelievable show
my son plays blues like an old black man.....
uh oh, not PC....
OOPSIE
*heads ruby to the PB PC box
Johnny Lang is definitely incredible.
or, as Bette Midler would say "**** em if they can't tke a joke"
really .. absolutely the most passionate show I"ve seen in years
The many reasons I love Ruby ♥
ty molly
I love Ruby on Tuesdays
People tell me that they have never heard of guitar players like Johnny Lang or Eric Johnson and I just look upon them with pity.
Roz Chast did a spread in a recent New Yorker and her little 4-line poems about birds sounded like what you and I write, Molly
and what am I supposed to do the rest of the week?
beats me rubes
there's an idea
oh.. ouch
I have met Roz Chast, she is a neat lady
I will have to check out Johnny Lang and Eric Johnson
rats, Lickety is not current for me
My fave guitarists.. Clapton, Stevie Ray, Phil Manzanera, Johnny Lang, etc
You Tube...Eric Johnson...Cliffs Of Dover...the one where he is wearing the band uniform...it will blow your socks off
I saw Clapton in concert once.. he's incredible in person.. (with the original Cream) at the FIllmore

So is BB King and he can still rock the house down

Hahahaha, if he is not too busy golfing or being on vacation, perhaps he will consider that. God knows he has no time for anything else, like oh...the pressing needs of the nation.
I prefer silent fireworks.. .here at least :D

Hey Jilly :-)
nbt/nbs and halfway...bbs...Hi/bye soodle dear!
Meh!
Oh, BTW, my friend couldn't get a extended visa, so her and fiance were married this past weekend in Vegas. Party here this Wed..."Bit of the Craic"...can you decipher soodle?
Oh wow, Jilly... 'A bit of the craic heralds a rip-roarin' hooley. Enjoy!
'Craic' is a generic term for much drinking, singing, fighting, making love... Basically whatever you're having yourself!
Is there a party going on in here?
how do you say Elvis in irish?
Not a bit of it, Molls. I'm merely explaining to Jilly the trials which lie ahead.
Not sure but "a bit of the crack" has a whole different meaning in these United States.
Dunno, Ru. Can you enlighten us?
*ties fingers together*
Silly me, to think that people here would be having a hooley.
Yes Ru, that too.
:D
<---amazes himself at how tame he has become
I'd be looking forward to some Craic myself .. actually
Well, C'mon over, then!
Said Soodle just before she slunk off to the PB...
♪You say tomato♫and I say tow-mah-to♫
Hollow voice coming from the PB.... Potayto. Potahto
I'm up for a hooley, as long as Soodle promises to sing The Gang Bang song.
lol, soodle
Does Madonna do that one Molly?
No, but any rugby team on the East Coast does a fine rendition of it : D
Especially after the second keg has been tapped.
oh.. mebbe I don't wanna know
linea
Personally, I would never have mentioned that song in here, but since Soodle crossed that barrier, I followed quickly after her.
linea
No hooley is complete without the GangBang song. Ru, i will coach you. I will ensure that you are as up to speed on GangBangs as is humanly possible.
Plus, Soodle gets The Gang Bang Song award for singing it, whilst atop a table, at a baptism.
*orders halo for Molly*
see you guys later.. going to go outside for a while and take in the decent weather
Jeez. Molly, is nothing sacred? It was a long time ago. The child being christened back then is now 27, for heaven's sake.
*legendary Soodle stories*
Oldies but goodies!!
Soodleicious
Sacred? Ha ha. Switch two letters in sacred and you get scared. : D
But let me amend that earlier comment and say that when Soodle did that, she was younger and in her prime and she used to...never mind
It was a long time ago.
is the bottom c a ch or cr?
ch
And of course, Soodle never participates in anything nearly as bawdy or raucous as that now. Why, having the ladies for tea is much more her speed. Yes sir.
ty
Indeed, Molly. I am now a Lady Who Lunches'.
i am missing a single to 5/12 i have the one meaning firm muscled what is the other to 5/12 please?
Soodle has the best clue for that.
*Goes outside to laugh hysterically at the lady who lunches thing*

hi all, back to find my last 22 words
Oh and...here's to the ladies who lunch, aren't they a laugh...lounging in their caftans and planning a brunch, on their own behalf...
wb peri
Soodle's clue was heavy weight + Prince Charles late wife (Since we have lost Soodle again)
too late now but ty
Yes, I saw that you got it. I just thought her clue was cute.
Soodle was lost, but now she has been found...
Say hallelujah brothers and sisters!
Halleluja!
Oh wait, stop the revival, that's Amazing Grace.
Hard to believe I got my hymns mixed up, isn't it? : P
Aw. I was quite liking that.....
A heavenly chorus to greet my arrival into Babble. Yup. Bring it on.
My, my, we've come a long way from The Gang Bang song.
help with li6 pls
nm
It's a kind of tree, girls name + room you study or read in
*Fell for it*
:)
but it was a great clue
Hello Peri :-)
hi there Soodle :)
Soodle has my brain in Sondheim mode.
FW, bye for now
I'm feeling a bit like Dorothy in Oz right now. People are coming & going very quickly.
Internet went down...soodle, did you reply to my question much earlier? Can't find it in chat?
I didn't know the internet could do that
*sigh* oh ruru...how about internet shut down
oh that!
That'd be some trick for the internet if that were true
<---tends to take things literally :D
If only....worth the cost eh ruru?
talk about a server ..
brings a whole new realm to tech service!
no kidding
there'd be a whole lot more MOntana women signing up for service
lol
*new Montana license plates* *Montana.. the land where almost everyone is happy"
... and tired :D
*gives a TOTO to soodle for comfort*
I feel the rains down in Africaaaa
LOL
Clues are up
Thanks Lickety!!
Lickety, you old rascal. 20 hours later!
LOL....
will make my last 21 easier!
<-----!!FW!!
evening all! woo hoo Jilly
hello and ty dan2
Okay...must be off to fix dinner,....happy babbling all!
Ru, are you making people *sigh* again?
firewords! tx all cluers - un6/21 was my last - to kick out tenants
hello 97 to go
sighing is better than groaning
PG mentality prevents me from responding to that.
such restraint.. i'm impressed
soodle, are you still here?
what are the stats for the o please?
ou 5
nbt
soodle has gone to the big noodle in the sky with her poodle
I miss her already. oodles.
You never know, she might be having a doodle
the ou5 ends 4 other words, btw
ca7?
ca7 - yellow flag on race day
taking care and being watchful ca7
thanks
hi all
i would say that un6/21 is to take off the market. . .but that is probably the lawyer in me
a axed
c clobbered
un6 actually means untorn, as in he stopped before he rent his garment, therefore it is unrent
o dear, i called nbt when i didn't have it
um, thanks molly
Oh Harp, we will have to send you to the Babble dungeon for that
ok, NOW i have nbt

I figured the word had been discussed so much in chat that it was obvious what it was. But hey, I live in the PB so no matter.
haha
I stocked it up with some fabulous chinese food. . .
and lots of chinese tea which puts our tea to shame . .
Ah, good Chinese food is hard to find. I am lucky that we have one of the good places close by.
the only place i had bad food here was in one hotel in Shanghai. . . but I confess that even I am noodled out. . .
I'll pass on the tea, thanks.
the coffee here is hard to swallow. .
and it turns out donkey is quite tasty. . . .
who'd of thought. . .
You really do have a cast iron stomach
haha it is actually what they raise donkeys for here. . . i was surprised. . .

au6?

thanks
my husband is coming home, hungry, sometime in the next two hours. It would be nice to have dinner ready for him.
haha what a thoughty wife
Well, every now and then I get it right....
good id** keeps him guessing
He just called, about 20 minutes away. I should move the sprinkler since it's blocking the door.... or not.....
He would prefer a naughty wife
how hot is it? he might enjoy the splash. . .
Personally, I'm stunned. At last there is a woman here who actually cooks for her husband, instead of the other way around.
hm, I doubt it. He's been skiing.
don't project ru. . .
my hubby and i took turns
on the other hand i was a substantially better cook
And she refers to him as her husband, not DH or hubby. I'm stunned I tell ya.
What me? Project? Heavens!!!!
Yes Ru, I'm sure you are the only man who prefers naughty women *cough*
Unique male!!
not naughty women. . . naughty wife. . . bug difference
We've only been married 12 years. I still get a kick out of it.
No...nowadays it is naughty women :D
*big difference
In my dreams
nice to hear harp. . .
my trip to china was my 30th wedding anniversary gift to myself. . . .
My 30th anniversary was getting kicked out of the house
Is that a picture of you at Miyutang (sic)?
good evening.
???
What section of the wall was that picture taken?
yes you are right that was the section. . . a little less touristy but still close to beijing
my ??? were for ru but my internet is slow
Did you go down the slide?
no I took the lift up and down. . . i am a coward with heights and that was the best i could do and still see it
That chair lift is a bit rickety.....
I looked it up and learned my word for the day. Mutianyu.
haha i kept my face to the mountain side and didn't look. . .
the steps on the wall nearly killed my knees. . . but i have a cute picture of me on a slant. . .
hello dear friends!
hi trif
I am loving reading your mountain adventure posts, jmc...just got back from Colorado tonight, myself
my friend has hiked up the wall several times. . .she is intrepid (and 5 years younger)
I know - they are brutal. I turned right and went to the end. The steps were unbelievable.
did you meet up with cosdem?
no, just valentine and I. No time for meet ups, had all sorts of family stuff to attend to.
Feeling high as a kite Trif? : D
i couldn't make it to the end but i had a lovely time sitting in a tower while my friend and her daughter did. . . i felt like a wimp but the stairs were brutal
family stuff is nice. . .
hahaha molly, no. not really my thing. But DID get a kick out of passing all the dispensaries.
some had really clever names..."Pipe's Peak" and the like
Dispensaries, isn't that what they used to call the drive thru liquor places?
I am not sure. We call liquor stores "packies", short for package stores
i did manange to climb to the hanging temple. . . the stairs there were of a regular size and i had no trouble. . .
I am so in admiration of your travels, jmc
Y'all have such cute lingo up Bahstun way.
when i was trying to figure out where the shuttle was to the hotel i ran into this chinese/canadian who said she thought i was brave traveling where i didn't know the language. . . but i have found a smile and pointing works most anywhere
I thought packies were parking spaces
i think i will swith photos. . .brb
Chinese/Canadian? How does that blend? Do they eat poutine on their noodles?
I've heard smiling and pointing works on 18th Street, JMC.
the same way chinsese/american works molls
you mean 14th street?
No, actually I meant 18th. Plenty of action in that area as well.
the hookers have moved on from there too. . .I think they are on 7th now
Darn it, I must keep up with such things.
if ru ever comes to visit we will have to verify this information. . . the gentrification is driving those poor women and men from pillar to post. . .
Hello all - can i get a clue for the CA 7 (assuming the ( builds off it - if not need that too). Please and thank you.
becareful what you ask for jindigo (ca7) you have been warned (ca9)
ca7 is a warning, the 9 is the past tense
hi uu
and hi all!
*puts up yellow flashing light*
thank you two - appreciate it
yw
:-)
I am not really a hooker kind of guy actually
Call me old fashioned
oh well th** we don't have to worry. . . finding bars is easier
actually i think hookers are more old fashioned. . .
<--- obviously missed the beginning of this conversation
hehe i am sure you can fill in the blanks uu
Well, yes, my imagination is having quite the field day :-)
Sheesh, what a time to pop back in!!
hi jill!
hi jilly its always (almost) a good time to pop in
LOL...I know what you mean!
how many words? 8 and 9 letter words?
102 total, jubi, two 8s and a 9
ty
You all are lucky, Lickety came up when I had about 80% done...LOL
ah, didn't realize he was late!
oh i lickety wasn't up when i started so i just finished with volleydee's list
I used Dee's list for my last four that Molly provided
Good evening to my fellow babblers!How is everyone doing
By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! Way to go!
hi min! *waves*
hi min!
Hello minv!!
Hi Min.
No babbling for me yesterday or today. I was in bed all day yesterday with my allergies. Got up today, but I didn't feel like tacking the grid with itchy eyes and a stuffed up head
ugh, sorry to hear that, min!
and yet you still came to visit - yeah Min!
poor min!
fireworks!
glad you felt up to dropping in anyway
whoo hoo uu!
Congratulations uusue2 on your fireworks display. Hooray!
i need a clue for either TE please and thank you!
jmcnrick,are you still on vacation?Where did you go again?
the te's are identical except for the last letter, both are musical terms meaning to hold on to the note
the first 4 letters are the same as a professor's permanent job security
OH! thanks uu
or te + ***s and bolts + vowel
i extended it a day for a $600 voucher, a better flight and a hotel with food vouchers. . .so I am still in beijing
that was fireworks for me - thanks all! Goodnight. *poof
but i get back at the more reasonable time of 8 pm (rather than midnight) and no flight transfers. . .
whoo hoo jindigo!
My parents are touring Greece and Turkey. They sent me a picture of their first selfie via e-mail.They're having a blast
my icon is a temple that WASN'T damaged by russians, japanese or the cultural revolution. . . because it was too hard to get to
Congratulations Jindigo on your fireworks! Hooray for you!
how nice. . . i still don't have the nack of selfies
maybe i need longer arms. .
They don't either. It was a little off-centered.I have NEVER done a selfie and I probably never will.I'm so unphotogenic
pttttttthhhhhh to you for that remark. . . you looked fine in the photo i took of you. . . .
Speaking of selfies,I am going to put my little selfie to bed now. Need to go back to work tomorrow with my allergies.
with my selfie all you could see was my head and no background so it seemed kinda pointless. . .
goodnight and feel better min
See you later minv...hope you feel better
Goodnight all! I hope I feel up to some babbling tomorrow.
Thanks all! *POOF*
And I am poofing as well....niters all! And WooTs X3 for all FW!!
bye jilly. . .
*coughing at all the poof dust*
*brings out fan to blow poof dust out of chog*
hi ruru. Can you clue the un 6 please?
and Hi to everyone here as well! Waves frantically
untear according to molls. . . take off the lease market according to me
hi bugs
HI JMC so good to see you again. I have not been paying attention to the chog
Hey, it's not according to me. That's just what the dictionary says. Meaning is in the eye of the beholder.
But I know you are back from CHina. How long were you there?
un + what you do with an apartment
Thanks ruru and jmc and Hi Molly
*Wipes poof dust off all contact surfaces*
actually i am here for an extra day. . . see 9:43
*wonders if there is endpoof.. like endust?&
it was a two week trip so I got to see a lot of china. . .
i am sure endust would work ru. . .
Ooo *looks for Endpoof on Amazon*
I am blind to 2 te 6 words too.
they are impossible words. . . te+pecan+vowel for both of them
I see that you are still in Beijing now. I was listening to a Chinese author who grew up in Beijing and she was talking about the event 25 years ago.
it was fascinating to hear how she got into trouble for talking about it with other Chinese people
I found the words, thanks!
yes. . . night before last i was at a party with someone who had been there up until June 3rd and then left before the uglyness
yw
I went there and took pictures. . .we were a little surprised there were no extra soldiers but apparantly they arrested people the day before who had a dinner party and talked about what to do on June 4. . .except one who left after the party to go to teach in australia. . . he has decided to come back and turn himself in in the hopes of making a deal of it. . .
She was in high school and her older sister was at medical school. There parents locked them in the house for a week starting on the 3rd but after that everyone had to give an account of where they were and what they had done during the months leading up to it. She said some people did not pass the test and did not doo well, not prison but no job for years
that makes me wa** to see the butler which i think among other things protrays the concerns of the parents of freedom riders
Their parents told the sister to say that she was at the square just to provide medical assistance to those who were hunger striking. the high school student said her teachers advised them what to say about being there.
i was never so tested. . . i wonder if i would have been as brave as my sisters. . . one a freedom rider and the other at antiwar protests surrounded by national guards men. . .
the person with whom i had dinner said it was casual and festive up to the 3rd when he left to go home to singapore . . .
Well done for your sisters, especially since you grew up in the south. Your parents must have been great people to raise such dedicated daughters
they had their good points. . . :-)
the world is a very scarey place. i just dont understand why governments want such control.
i guess i am a live and let live person.
i hope china will become a nation where there are more and more freedoms. the potential is enormous.
that is a pretty good way to go along mkg. . . as it is here in china i cannot get on facebook twitter or youtube. . .
and google is iffy. . . if i ask the wrong question it never downloads. . .
even now fewer chinese know about teinamen square's 25th annivesary than people outside of china. . .
that is what this author said. She said that only people in Beijing knew what was going on so when she was in the army and told other women about it she was in trouble. Most of the picture
Putin's gas deal with china will have consequences for the west ... the pollution from coal is killing people ... the US is past the tipping point. Fracking polluting water tables and increasing seismic activity. Our "leaders" work for the few at the expense of the many. Most people have no idea what policies even benefit them. There are sheep being lead to their demise.
*worries chinese cut off bugsaws comments*
i was impressed with the number of solar panels and wind farms here though o-o
sorry Mr Bugs came in and started talking and I started typing his words.....
haha glad the chinese are not cencoring babbleland!
She said most of the other women who heard her stories were unsettled by them. They did not want to have to turn against their own people
The actual consequences of the yellow river diversion are yet to be known .... millions must move or learn to dog paddle forever
but it certainly started the opening up of the country and now when she visits Beijing it does not feel like her home town because of all the high rises etc.
that is the fallicy of course. . . standing up to the government is not the same as turning against your own people. . .
The UN predicts another polluter, India, will have the world's largest population by 2050
at least the yellow river diversion cut back on the use of coal the real culprit. . .
There are pictures almost everyday of bicycle riders with masks on pedaling thru the pollution haze
hi..clue for the en please?
that was certainly my experience. . .reminded me of Houston before the clean air act
en + liquid weight
could you speak more clearly dorens?
The US has five percent of the population and uses twenty-five percent of the oil
good … thanks ru and jmc.. and g'night everyone
And, the home of the free has more in prison than any other country
yw and whoo hoo and goodnight dorens
well the prisons are a result of free enterprise. . .
my last request is a clue for the last re 5, 10 please
re + lubricate
either regrease or add a vowel to the 4/4 above
oh for Pete's sake. How blind could I be? I never thought to look down the grid.... Thanks for putting me out of my agony
poof for me too
yw and bye. . . .
oh dear and molls had gotten all the poof dust out of here!
the prisons are the home of the largest percentage of seriously mentally ill ... after the mental health institutions were shut down ... and states have learned educating prisoners reduces recidivism ... the law-abiding who seek assistance to get an education are budget items and the funding has been reduced.
say it, o-o! Tell it like it is.....
finito! thank you everyone for the help!
whooo hooo harp!
The US Supreme Court has ruled big drug companies with patents running out may pay other companies with lest costly generic substitutes to not market their products to keep the prices high.
i was actually surprised by that decision. . . seems an antitrust violation. . .
i don't know why they don't consult me on these things. . .
well I am off to find lunch. . . wonder if i am brave enough to each sushi in china. . . .bbl
