I am well thanks.So you have another cold.urgh..Not good :-(
Glad you had a nice time though :-)
yeah looks that way. But am feeling happy nevertheless. It was a grand day yesterday.
How much snow have you got there then?
depends on how you look at it, lololll. As for the trains... there isn't a single train going right now in all of noordholland. So that is severe. But for us normal people... we see only about 2 cm!

* giggle * une, and you do it so well too.
:-D
and i have blessed volleymomdee. several times over.
yes!!!
une, today we went over to see my youngest bro, wife and daughter who had her third birthday recently. i was unable to buy her fave book which her mother borrows from her local library, but can never renew because of it's popularity.it was so sweet. talk about a frozen moment. as she unwrapped the book, she really did freeze. as if she couldn't believe her eyes. her all time fave book...and it was all hers.
So sweet
good morning rose *hugs*
and hi sukee too!
Hi sprite
{{hugs}} my darling sprite
sukee...aunty rose strikes again....lol
hi sweetie. Didn't have time for emails yet, yesterday was rather busy. Will get to it later today :)
I used to love buying my nieces books.
books are the best gift ever
my SIL knows she has to only let me know what is needed/missing from my niece's life...
sprite, np's. i know what your life can be like.
had a friend visiting all day yesterday, we talked our asses off,lol. And after that vocal night, which was wonderful.
my reputation as an aunty is beginning to build....lol
awww, sprite...just too lovely...
you will be renamed into grannyauntyrose
col....
Hi and hugs :)
hi Liz :) *hug*
{{hugs}} liuz girl
Sounds like you had a great day with your friend yesterday, Sprite and even though Rose seems to think I'm almost Mexican, it sounds like you had a lovely time today :)
Fed up with this grid :(
lol was thinking the same thing. And yes, yesterday was just perfect. How are you?
Borrrrrrrrrrrrrred!
oh dear....* liz *...
Keeping at home away from drunken holiday weekenders!
gives Liz an extra hug* Go jump your man's bones, sweetie, you'll feel better afterwards.
Sounds like a fun idea ;)
:D
ugh, liz. i was saying to don....i have never been to an australia day bbq. and, apparently neither has he.
love your book story, rose :-)
And I don't plan to! The beaches here have suffered from the storms anyway. Many were still closed today but like I said, we keep away at weekends and especially at holiday weekends.
What was the story book, Rose?
une, thanx hin. it was rather special. grace is very shy.
Reminds me of when my grandmother gave me Tom Sawyer for my birthday once, I still remember it.
What a lovely memory, Sukee.
reminds me of visiting my grandmother in Louisiana in the summertime -- my great aunt had a children's bookstore and I got to spend the day there reading anything I wanted to -- heaven!!
Keep trying remote - still doesn't work.
Nice.
i tried it too, liz LOL
Definitely heaven, Une.
liz, i had to order a special book for my niece. it did not become available until the last week. when she unwrapped it, it was a perfect frozen moment. the book was " a shark in the park "
Listening to it now - did you know you can hear / see it on YouTube?
A shark? Fancy that, it's only a cat! I love it, Rose!
i don't understand. lickety is on-line. and yet he doesn't post a list.
Wish Lickety's list would post - though thanks to Dee and the others who helped her compile her list. I'm sure I'll head to that before too long.
liz, she nearly did back-flips when she realised what the book was.
so delightful, rose, and so rewarding :)
I can imagine. What an amazing pressie and of course, what a wonderful aunt.
yeah, sprite.
Haven't found any more words since I came back online :(
liz...thanx dearest....i try to be.
lickety might be busy, distracted or in the process of figuring out why the list didn't post.
tada! http://tinyurl.com/mpcgn4w
I'm sure you don't need to try too hard.
Yes, that's what I found, une. Beautiful dog you're going to be transporting.
Okay, time for a break. 211 left.
clue for un6?
un + what you do in peace
bye sukee, good job!
i am thinking it is one of his kids on-line.
Or how you might feel after a bad night's sleep.
210, ty sprite :)
Have a good day Sukee
tx -- got it!!
I will be back
also quite possible, rose
I think it is an amazing service that Lickety provides for us, and we shouldn't nag when sometimes it isn't available to us.
not that you were nagging, btw!
Finally finished our 2nd UK photo book today - next onto Amsterdam and Singapore. Then there'll be New Zealand. Don't think I'll finish Amsterdam and Singapore before we go.
I
I'm very grateful for Lickety's list.
with all the travelling you do, Liz, you'll never be done with the photo books :)
Travelling is at an end for a while after NZ.
sprite....with the conversations i have had with lickety...we are very lucky to have his lists.
Yay! Found another word.
UG 6/30 is a new word for me!
Hi Zooz. Would you like to clue it for me, pls?
The DEF: horrid; loathsome.
and me also, zooz
The def isn't helping ;)
ug+a few
UG+ frank spencer was in ____ mothers do have'em
Rolin's clue is soo much better..lol
omg..im lying on my side...??..lol
Thanks Ro and zooz
Feeling tired - lol
hahaha so you are..what happened there?
Rose, That is so sweet about the book!
no idea....ive changed it again
i reallly need to go to bed..xoxox.
Sleep well, Rose and hugs
Sweet sleeps, Rose.
liz... when are you going to NZ?
I'll FB message you - I don't like to put dates out in public.
ok...np
Good idea, Liz.
Done.
cool... it should be fabulous... mum said she thought it had the best scenery she had ever seen
An ex pupil of mine is there now. She's really athletic (yuck) and is climbing loads of mountains. The scenery looks amazing.
ok.... when kids fail their exams..they 'resit' them.... keep up enable!
athletic... hmmm... maybe pitch a deck chair and watch...lol
I've tried resit so many times in different grids - also lates, as in "how many lates this term."
'impsex' - when elves get together ...
yeah... i trt 'lates' too..
We'll settle for 4 wheel drive trips to see LOTR scenery etc in the mountains.
*try
sorry, got distracted by my love who wants to send his handmade finished paddles to belgium and needs help figuring out how and where...
lol Chessy! I will add it to our dictionary, ok?
Good word, Chessy.
nose
Teehee, Chessy!
Rose has retired for the evening, Sprite.
oops *slinks back to lurking*
Nm Chessy. We all do that sometimes.
wow I bet that is a beautiful view, Liz!
I'll let you know when we've been :)
Would not even allow wetsuit in yesterdays grid :-(
yeah sorry to have missed her leaving :(
could i get a clue for the single o pls?
OC4, Rolin.
Like killer whales, minus a letter.

Hello, Bea.Long time no see :-)

Hi Bea
Sorry. Playing on iPad for first time. Don't like it!

I tried on my parents galaxt tab once.It was horrid.
Sweet sleeps, Liz!
Galaxy*
And then I saw 2 more words! Guess that's the way it goes!
Thanks, Zooz :)
bye Liz
cong
oops
lol add a bit more :-)
jeezz the idiocy. We want to send a parcel to belgium, a little over 150 cm long, as a private customer. They either only cater to businesses or they don't take packages this size.
Lots of wrds I have not seen in the grid before.
That sounds stupid, Sprite?
So have you worked out how you can send it?
nope. Still trying to find a transporter that will take it. It is so stupid!
Is there a business you can take it to..and ask them to send it for you and you will foot the bill?
It is an idea. Will keep that in mind.
And I am done.Off to do less interesting things.Happy babbling everyone.
well, hell. No dice. Last resort will be UPS and of course I can't contact them until monday. Let's hope they will take our package.
metis

ty - nbt
thanks MLF
i used to have a cairn poo but i call it a half cairn terrier half poodle
sounds like an interesting mix, can't picture it
I've just had her since October and she is just a dynamo but swee at the same time
poodles are a good breed, had one when I was growing up
oh and a similar ro 6-7-8
the one i had has a similar look i think the ears were more on the head of the dog as opposed to raised like yours solid black
and co 6-7-8
that type of mix is hard to find
I mean 5-6-7
my poodle was solid black
am so in love with your dog lol
went to a dog show last Saturday and took her. She was so excited to see everyone-she's such a people person
282 left
lol, so am I!
That's the picture that was on petfinder.com and when I saw it, I feel in love with her instantly
drove 3 hours one way to Ohio to get her
i got mien as a gift for my b day i think i was about 12 or so but she ended up being my mom's dog
just hoping to get half way -- don't feel like slogging it out without lickety
3 hrs???
why did she wind up being your mom's dog?
i thinks he took care of it more then i did .. shame on me
yep, 3 hrs. but she's worth it and I feel fortunate everyday that I made that drive
well as a kid you don't realize
luv they are such happy dogs
i was shocked it had a bow on its neck and didnt even occur to me that it was a gift i tried to give it back to the person not knowing lo
yes, she sure is. Only dog I've ever seen that comes back from a 3 mile walk and is more wound up than before we went on the walk! LOL
lol
they are hyper its the poodle part
how sweet, who gave it to you?
or could be cairn part of thats what it is
a neighbor of ours a long time ago
my 3/4 poodle is very high energy. Never a dull moment!
I don't know exactly what mix she is because she's a rescue dog and they found her tied to a tree-can you imagine???
uggh what is wrong with people
my poodle wasn't real hyper but I was a kid so maybe I didn't notice-lol
the poodle was a good hunter though, she was always chasing things and catching them sometimes
makes life interesting doesnt it?
sure does
has anyone found any words that use the gerund ending besides 4 or 5 letter words?
of course I just found a 6 and 7 after I typed that

if you go back the way you came you're re 9 your steps
is the su 7 the compound word MLF?
no the tr 78 -- nor the re 9
yes
take off the RE from the 94
take the re off the 9 for the tr and then plural
cyber the tr word for the re 9 is tr 7/40
and at least we all agree
sounds good guys, but I don't see any of them
do you have the RE 9/72
Nan, if you want to copy a picture you use tr7 paper
I use a photocopier
or a scanner
or carbon paper
cyber you use a pencil to tr5 it but that word is not in the grid
Copy a picture by using a pen and paper. LIke tr5 minerals
but at the gerund at the end

Refresh, refresh
yeaaaa.. that did it.. i see it now..
I have refreshed and even restarted my computer. Still don't see the clues
My refresh was directed to Ivesy about her icon
lickety is down...
I even cleaned my cache
if you are talking about ivesy's icon, did you try clicking on it and then refreshing it while it's open?
okay, got you Molly
i refreshed...i c my icon now...ty all..
hi all
hi
hi jmc
<---feeling refreshed.. but not fresh
April fresh?
*Spritzes Febreeze*
*cough cough*
Hiyas, kiddos!
hi judi
not THAT kind of fresh
<<<< Pic of the new pup.
Oh damn, it's kind of depressing when you're not feeling that kind of fresh
what breed is that judi..looks like a koala
Ruru is slapable fresh. Which is why we like him!
Re-fresh to see canine.
<--prefers to think of myself as spankable
cute pup...
*gag*
lololo.
sorry that was not in response to the pup
poor jm.. came back with a flu from Mexico
not back yet. . . still sweating on the pacific. . .
No I think she was coughing because of the Febreeze.
yes . . . i is sensitive that way molls. . .
I gag at the smell of Febreez too. Hate air fresheners.
Sensitive to the sun, sensitive to Febreeze, just a bundle of sensitivity
that's me. . . little miss sensitivity
Ooo Judi, I hope you like open windows with all those animals in your house.
Hey, look. I just spelled "estrogun".
well.. with menopause you feel like you have a gun to your head
Could be a volatile weapon!
I tried sexgun, but no go
sexgun works for me :D
lot of personal knowledge about that ru?
yeah.. ten years of experience
y'all are confused its sex pistols
Men are as familiar with estrogen as women are with testosterone
It wasn't until I had six teenage boys in my living room watching football that I knew what Kurt Cobain meant by "smells like teen spirit"
LOL! Gives Molly a case of Febreez.
I give.. does anyone have the su7?
Uh, nice place in the house with a lot of light
oh.. shit
i have one that is a plural...
thanks
Plural? There is only one su7
you are right.....i was looking at the wrong second letter...
*Opens a bottle of wine for Ru and puts it by the chaise lounge in the su7
<---wishes there were a few more M words
i suppose you wish there were a few more C words, too....
<---Wishes Lickety had logged out yesterday so the list would have updated
man.. this one is a grinder
I have to get ready to work.. see you guys later.
See ya, ru. *spank spank*
Goodbye, dearest, darling friend MWAH MWAH

The Penalty Box is kind of moot these days, what with clues like P*nal*y B*x

I went to the Tate Modern today and found some of the 'art', and the incredibly pretentious captions accompanying the so-called art hilarious
Oh myyyyy...I can only imagine
I am not a good modern art person...I just don't "Get" a lot of it.
I try to keep an open mind, but after while, some of it just looks like people's trash.
more garbage dump installations matty?
went to the tate the first time we were in london - never bothered going back
Modern art really speaks to some people, but I am not one of those people.
the pompidou centre in Paris isn't any better
guess I just don't "dig" modern "art"
Nor am I - the very modern stuff (like sticks against a wall) is now in the Tate Modern on the South Bank. Tate Britain I think has the more normal stuff
I guess I'm just a philistine
help with nu6 pls
nm
right column all gray!!
Read this - http://tinyurl.com/nfte5fy then I'll send through the 'art' it describes
did find a lovely little museum though --- it was a museum of the people -- costumes, utensils, early steam trolley -- even a recreation of a shop front street from Dickens' day -- really interesting
good morning everyone
Ditto Peri!
Hello Flosey
hi flosey
ah, clue please peri, for nu
do you have the ne4/6
Here's the art for you http://tinyurl.com/merknbh

hubby just came in to let meknow, I have less than 40 minutes
LOL, matty, certainly provokes anxiety in me! :P
*no x8 and missing 2
bye flosey :-)
I worked in the campus art gallery back when I was in school, was constantly amazed at the stuff that passed for "art" even back then. one person had a thing for grafitti on old doors, mostly made me want to strip and stain the poor doors, lol
As a friend of mine commented on FB upon seeing that - n I thought art was to relieve anxiety Not produce it!! Oh yes, let's get our daily fix of anxiety as we don't get enough of it already!
but of course the medium didn't co4 them much, which may have been important to a broke college art student.
How many UP words?

Clue for AC 7/32 please?
ac + congestion might be ** your ****
<-- hesitant to use the word booger, but there it is. makes the clue better :D
LOL...ty!
Hi welki, saw your name on QP
In case anyone wondered - the ** is not up. It doesn't make much sense if you try that. I did.
Are the 2 AN 6/24 words alike?
i joined a few months ago, bichon - had tried it years ago, couldn't figure out a few of the games and didn't go back until recently. i really like it
I don't do very well, but it is enjoyable
no
i struggle with the honeycomb and don't do well at wordbuilder either
no car... one sounds like its about very small things
I don't have either of the two AN6/24 words - sorry
but you're right, it's enjoyable
the other is a psychological term
beginning of non-human + beginning of sounds made by voice or instrument
I have an an5 that's a psychological term...
that's the one I have
a + negative + mr. jaggar
he can't get no satisfaction
ty!
Nan - I got your second one (sympathy for the devil) - not sure about the first...
nm, got it
I do that all the time!
down to 129 -- need to find a list - no idea what to look for anymore
OK...have to go give tertiare a ride to work. See you all in a bit!
there is a list in MollyL's Profile
ca 8, please?
I don't have it :(
French for a military billet in a small town - try cave with a difference consonant for the second syllable, and a vowel at the end
I read that back and it seems a bit obscure! Try: ca +***ving dinner+butterfly**t
Not up with my military billets - and the cave is baffling me (at the moment)
Gotya Helen
if you are going for carnet, it is not there -- I know what the first 5 letters have to be -- it is the last 3 I'm struggling with
oh I see there are 2 ca 8's -- looking for the ca 8/60
it's the gerund form of ca 5/14
ty kate
any clues for some u words? like ug and um?
yw
still trying to figue out what helenis doing with dinner!
Um, I'm saying ug about this grid
cute matty
There's a funny board game, played with little disks that you try to bounce into pockets at the corners ( I haven't played since I was a kid, so this is pretty vague!) and the little disks are called car*** (pl) and then you give them a gerund.
Me too Nan
ug6/30 - this grid is ug - like - it's really got a little bit of ug (the last four letters mean not many but...)
As to dinner - I'm putting it on a great tray and ***ving it at the table!
the Um - you have them at baseball games - they enforce the rules
Or I could be a preacher on Sunday giving a ***mon.
Oh, that was much more understandable
but there is no cacar
Once in a while (ever couple of years) my clues are brilliant - the rest of the time they drag a lot of mud around with them.
only bouning disk game I know is tiddly winks
She is not carving it Nan, she is ***ving it to her guests
These are wooden disks and you bounce them off the sides of the board - it's sort of like pool, without cues, and disks instead of balls.
game...auto + first three of Italian city
now I'm really confused
Or ca5/14 - like artificial chocolate but with a different end consonant?
carom
rumor has it i was born confused.. :(
thought the ending was most of what is used to catch butterflies, but that isn't accepted
Sorry - that should have been butterfly**t
I thought it was auto + ***ving tray for tea + **?
Which Italian city?
The capital, Helen
The clues got all mixed up Nan. I don't know where the game came in
I only have one of the Is from the top of the second column - I have the in6/24 - can anyone guide me to a few others?
I've fot my fireworks and will leave beore I confuse everybody. Good luck all, and thanks to Dee, Molly and hotowl for the list.
A lawyer carries a brief*** + first two of butterfly catcher
lk - give up --- one of you is saying it is carom*** and the other is saying carser**, so which is it?
this is the ca 8/45, right?
I have the ca 8/60
how do you play
Sorry, I missed a consonant after the lawyer bag
Art, click the Help link up the top - all will be revealed!
whew -- ty molly
Damn, I need a drink.
lol - me too!
me too... this is tedious lol
Ditto. Can anyone help with any of the I words from the top of the second column besides in6/21
ic 4, im 4, in 5-6, in 5-6 -- still missing 4
Dear god, how did I not see that ic4?!?!?
another in 6
I probably need a rest from the grid now - I'm getting grid blind
Aaaand ditto the im4. I found that silly in6, yet missed the blindingly obvious
i cant tell which word comes from where..this calls for a smoke
also an im 6/33
nm - I just found the girdle
the girdle?!
co 6
Aaah - I am definitely grid blind
*Ivesy and I are having a party out back
I too shall have a smoke soon
*taking halo off and polishing it so I won't be tempted
time to get some lunch -- bbl
Clearly not impsex - where two little devils go at it
I did try it though
Not sexgun either
That's what you use when you catch the little blighters at impsex, Molly
im + churchill's dog + consonant
Um, no...that is what he uses...enough said
Rufus?
Haaaa!
muahaha!!! it's long past where I'd normally stop and wander off (my standard is nbt, nbs, and over halfway) - but I'm having too much fun reading the chat! ;)
Rufus? That was apparently the name of Churchill's dog...
Oh, the breed of Churchill's dog...Also the name of a Babble player
Actually, he had poodles. But I found it.
sorry to im6/33 your churchill knowledge ;)
Actually, he had several breeds of dog
Indeed, but Rufus and Rufus II were apparently poodles. He also had an extremely long lived budgie
And cats too. I'm surprised he doesn't play Babble from the beyond
The internet has everything in the whole world EVER
Anyone else confused by recent posts? I'm lost.
There is no sense to be made here. Enter at your own risk.
Aye. Happily, lost is a familiar feeling.
I was hoping one of those Australian Babble players would go wake Lickety up, but, alas, no.
Perhaps if we all roar in unison.... WAKE UP LICKETY?
Perhaps, but emails have not helped.
Lovely profile pic Molly.
help with ca8 pls
Apparently it goes over better than the "don't spoon feed" one
Oh God, ca8, here we go again
It builds off ca5 - ca + computer memory then gerund
I was away for a bit and missed the clue
The cluing for that word got rather...convoluted :)
ty I had the base word, did not think to add ing
is there more than one ca8?
Does the ao6 sound like a blood vessel?
still missing 7 eight letter words
So am I, Peri!
There is another ca8 - builds of ca4 (a suit****) then a type of, I believe, sea bird
stuck on the first ca 6/30 ?
ty Matty
So about the ao6...?
matty it starts like the blood vessel
ao6 ends with a one who does suffix
*Mental note: Matty needs her clues right quick in a hurry
back in my lazy-boy, refreshed by lunch, ice-cuff running, no longer tempted by certain babblers' unhealthy habits and ready to find the last 110 ; D
ca 6: tin + last 3/4 of old fashioned word for the flu
Nice clue!

I do not like words that start with C and there are way too many of them here today
Hip hip hoooray - no more As
How many AOs are there?
Just the one
I'm guessing old fashioned word for the flu starts with be my ***st (as in sit down and accept my hospitality)
thanks
i do not know what the old fashion word for flu is.. :(
I hate aos for some reason
Or ends with that
i hate this grid lol
old-fashioned word for flu... I think ... is A + be my ***st

yum - ty
mo6...ends like the "a" word that means strife
ty molly
have seen that with an a in front, but never alone
I've given up looking at definitions for this grid. I just don't care anymore.
me neither
Hello, Babblers! I first started to babble many years ago, and finally gave up because I was fed up with all the Scottish and Old English words as well as the obscure coinage of small countries. Also, the never-used alternate spellings, such as today's ci** which is usually spelled sci**. So, yes, Nan, I did care. Now I'm back to babbling (for a week or so already), and trying hard not to care what these words mean. It's less frustating that way, but not very satisfying.
remembering the definition doesn't seem to help me remember the word. In fact, I think I'm more scrambled than before I started! ;)
I don't remember words I don't use in conversation or writing. And since I am not a word snob, who would use these words in either, I am prone to forget most of them.
Good point.
still missing tthe 2nd and 3rd sp 7's -- any clues, please?
Exactly so, Molly.
exactly!
And now, would someone take pity on me. I remember, or have figured out, almost all the abbreviations, but nbs and nbt defeat me. help, lease.
please, that is ;-)
no blank tiles and no black somethingelse
no blank word stats, no blank tiles
ty
and by black I meant blank ;)
NBT - have at least one word for each tile stats - NBS - have at least one word for each word stats
There, wow, now you know

How is Bobby? Who is he rooting for in the Superbowl?
HI Bea, Bobby is well. He's rooting for the Patriots and he has a bet with my sil. Doug picked the Seahawks.
Thanks for asking for Bobby.
Tell him I'm rooting for the Seahawks.
Can anyone steer me on the os8?
So far Doug owes Bobby a dollar. I just showed Bobby your post and he says you are going to lose.
Good morning all and thanks Lickety :)
Sorry Matty - don't have os 8 yet.

Thank you
yw o-o
ah,my first cluem with 76 to go.
55 left here and tough going
i've been enjoying doing it alone so far, but am running out of ideas.
so glad Lickety posted his list, much easier to finish
the weather made me cancel plans for the evening., so i have some time.
always nice to have a big grid when you have the time
Hi o-o - nice to see you again :)
i'd rather be dancing, but not willing to worry about road conditions
Hi TO - don't blame you avoiding the icy roads. Shame about the dancing though.
hi liz. i did not like this band last time, so no bg deal.
Is it a blues band, TO?
Exept i am becoming a hermit again
no, bea. it is zydeco.
A hermit? I thought you were dating someone.
It's OK to be a winter hermit but come out again in the spring and make the occasional appearance on a mild winter day.
Good music as well.
i am afraid for the fair weather friends!
Get them to come to you for coffee
And if they can't be bothered to wait until spring, not worth having!
zydeco and beignets and Community coffee -- yum
i am trying to keep goiing out with the socail groups,
How was your trip, Une?
fine, liz -- i was just upset tho that the local
the local
Hmmm! Agreeing with Bea about all those m's
beginets = new orleans = different music.
the local
aacckkkkk
Don't know much zydeco - like what I've heard.
the local tennessee shelter that kept him overnite made the mistake of putting a dog in the cage with garfield and he attacked him
poor guy had lots of bites on his legs -- had to take antibiotics and pain meds :-(
Aw - that's not good :( So did the rehousing go OK or were they put off by the fight?
liz, i will post you a link
he's on a 2-day transport -- going all the way to a foster in vermont -- BUT i was told that the lady who's keeping him tonight will smother him with love and kisses!!
Is that the policy of the shelter - to put more than one dog in a cage?
Thanks TO
Good - he's a beautiful dog - but then I'm a softee for dogs!
have no idea, liz -- it's a shelter several hundred miles west of here -- but in general that's not acceptable policy
I wouldn't have thought so.
http://zydecocrossroads.org/
actually most of the dogs i transport are staying with foster families until the beginning of transport -- not in a municipal shelter
I've saved the link, TO - will look later - Sunday is clean up day - need to get to that soon. Thanks again.
and fyi today was not the dog in my icon -- she's my transport tomorrow -- today was a sweet young english setter
Ah! Still, all your dog icons are lovely.
ok -- back to the grid
they
64 to find!
they're all sweethearts, liz!!
i suppose it's time to consult the list.
Just on first trawl through the list.
And thanks to those who posted lists - if Lickety hadn't come online, I'd be using them.
i just keep wanting to find more but them are not coming, even when i should be able to intuit them,
