Good morning, all. Ruby, I'm not familiar with that title. Is it TV or a movie?
Hi Judi
It's on Netflix, a 3-season series, animated but for adults. Don't Watch it, though, if you're offended by bad language.
It's satirical bout the TV industry and Hollywood (they call it Hollywoo)
Stats please for the N in the right column?
goodnight everyone
Good night, sleep well

Reading back in chat - Ruby, the only way to use a stationary bike is to park it in front of the TV. Too boring otherwisse.
Yes, now if I could pad the seat even more, it would be a pleasure
It's what I used to do with ironing
Me too. :-)
Did anybody see that Kerry was in Annecy during the weekend?

Hurshy - Assume you are referring to the Monty Python secret of life. Been a while since I've seen that movie.
love me some Monty Python!
125 words . . . taking a break -- BBL -- HAGD!
no i'm referring to something Q said in one star trek book. that the secret of life was a ne9
Then again, how could I forget "the meaning of life"?
Ha! Missed that book.
it was a good one - Q meets Lwaxana Troi - Q-in-law
Methinks Q was having a laugh.
Didn't read any of the next gen books. What's the title of that one?
Q-in-law
Ah. Will have to look for that. Thanks.
it's by one of the real good authors. peter david maybe?
Trek books are a secret indulgence. *don't tell anyone*
*wink*
I don't get the star trek thing..
*didn't mean to kill the chat with one comment*
*wonders if everybody dropped dead*
how long ago was that?
ten minutes. ruru couldn't wait around for the resurrection. No patience, that man
I'm telling you..
oh ho
hmmm?
at least I know now to wait for the resurrection..
you never know who might be coming back
I guess some people around here have their crosses to bear :D
now, what was your problem with Star Trek
oh no. religious puns are out of my line
good morning -- just here for a few minutes while waiting for the family to appear for breakfast
I don't know.. I think it interested me as a kid.. but trying to watch it now seems really fake and corny
*blessed with a NAN appearance*
It Was fake and corny -- you just defined Camp
yes.. it's far too campy for me.. that's it exactly
A NANappearance is a paraducks
sorry, I slipped and made a Marx
Got to go get some zz's -- working a Noir film festival tonigh

Work intruded, again!
(whew.... was worried )
JWR - reminds me that a town near us in PA is having a "Blob" film fest. Includes "the traditional running-out-of-the-theater" in sync with the scene in the movie.
first 2 of the 9?
Bonus trivia points: Name the male star of "The Blob" (no, Ruru. It wasn't "Blob"), and; identify the substance the blob was made of.
en I think kje
ne 9/60 ... a fruit
ty
steve mcqueen
en.... ne... close enough
Phoenixville (home of Blobfest) isn't too far from me. I've always wanted to go, but never have. The theater there is where the scene was originally filmed.
en is an 8 sorry
: )
That would be the location, Jess! 1/2 point for Ruru.
... The Blob starred "STEVEN McQueen"
I thought the Blob was an alien or something
The diner from the movie is in Downingtown.
(even closer to me)
I lose a half point for missing a N?
I hate this grid
... it is perhaps one of the most trivial or trivia bits
Only 1/2 point for answering one of the trivia questions.
oh
inear
... almost jess
The Blob originated from a meteorite. However, what "special effects" substance was the blob made of?
silicone?
ta7?
Nope.
like gone with the wind kje
silly putty?
clay?
yeah.. I guess if it was silicone.. Kanye west would have been in the film
I never saw the blob, so not sure what the thing looked like
... a big pile of old jello
kje is blob deprived
I am blobless
she's just hob-blobbing along
What flavor jello?
lime!
... eventually "red" ... because it absorbed too much blod
cuz the blob sounds green to me
blood
oh gross, dosef - lol
so cherry or strawberry?
so if it was jello was Bill Cosby in the film?
... or raspberry? ... but that might be too much of a comment on the movie
Raspberry Jello. Not sure why they used raspberry. The file was in black & white.
... pre-dates him by about three years
*film* rather.
thanks for pudding a timeline on that dose :D
... I SPY hadn't happened yet
1st ca6/24?
line of dancers kje
... seem to recall watching it on TV when not doing some homework from high school

aww bummer
I don't come to flip anymore not by my choice either
nah no biggie, I like still having something fun left
that's for sure
:)
well I don't play AT flip time anymore, too much calling of clues then. I moved till a little later, when I can play without getting half the grid handfed to me.
lol sprite
:)
(coming in) What a delight to see you sprite!
hi ch
you too of course, mlf :)
ch! And vice versa! How've you been?
I want to know what others find at that time but I only do grids 100 and over
I play them all. Not that I am addicted or anything.
Pretty good. Right now depression is well managed, health is improving, and I'm truly feeling well. And you?
but do you finish them all?:)
yeah I do. Though some in two sessions :)
congratulations sprite:D
lol nah, just my pitbull mentality. And I really enjoy the game still. Does wonders for my language skills too
wow, that is so good to hear, ch! Well done. Not an easy road to travel, depression. I am feeling very well too. My last depression period is a couple of years back now. Even winter didn't bring me down the last two times.
sprite as long as you use the words that are actual words and not Babble words lol:)
good afternoon everyone
hi cross
*hugs crossy*
Howdy MLF :)
(((Sprite)))
Hello everyone
oh ywis, mlfan, I rarely talk about how I love inia.
*hugs car.ee*
really sprite?
(sprite))
hi car
Sprite, you are tenacious! (word games). Glad to hear you're doing well too. Hi Crossy and Car {{{ hugs all around }}}
Howdy, car ;)
Howdy ch1212 ;)
Hi Crossy
true, dat. A nicer way to put it than the pitbull mentality, grin.
this grid is hopping. To music.
what are you listening to?
"Tharn" should be a word by now. is very famous in literature ;)
righrt now I found a Moulin Rouge word :D
ooh! Loved that musical.
I loved the movie
musical with Nicole Kdman
th4 you will know the da5 I mean
What a surprise Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor were with their voices.
ch she had to take singing lessons
voice lessons as well or is that the same thing lol?
Tharn, crossy, I'd say you are right
I thought so when I heard her the first time, but they paid off, I thought. Not a strong voice, but a sweet one fitting her character.
ch I totally agree
she sings "something stupid" with whatshisface... very nice
Now I am remembering Art Garfunkel's haunting song "Bright Eyes" for that film :)
robbie williams
oh I love that song, crossy. The whole movie, tbh.
I have that Garfunkel album, and that song is a favorite. Also his "Second Avenue" about a couple who broke up, and she had a bird. I lived on a Second Avenue once, with a guy who had a parrot. We broke up. So Art's song always makes me think of that time.
awwww
Hindi Sad Diamonds
fireflies
Congrats
Hurrah for sprite!
it was a real pleasure, dear people. *hug* and thanks for the company

:)
"hanging" lakes we call them. tghey are very interesting, and dangerous at times
Clue please for EN 7?
nm...just found it
can someone please tell me how to move words I found on licketysplit to this page
Link to Babble Expert in my profile... puts Lickety side by side with the grid I'd post it, but sometimes posting links here adds extra characters if not a tiny url...
Hi kate
I've done that TraderKate. Now how do I move the words . Do I need to log back in?
do you see the VERY TOP row of small boxes (first one is "refresh clues"?.....
next two yellow boxes are "send words to Babble" and "send words to clues"....
so if you entered words in Lickety click send words to babble :) refresh might help and if all else fails, go out of Babble Expert then back in. Hi MLF... sorry just a quick hit and run, gotta fly now.
I have to dash MRS.... sorry hope that's enough to get you going
ta 5/10, the second one, pls
the only ta5 i have is short for a spud

Hi peri....60 remaining here. How are you ?
I am doing very well, diane, and you?
it is in the 90's again here today. it has been the hottest August on record!!
Doing well....have issues but can cope! :-)
just read your profile. 56 years that is a long time. how is your hubby doing?
and 8 years cancer free, go diane!!
He's awesome! He has a few little aches, but in very good shape. He golfs twice a week and we still maintain a fairly big yard and garden!
:)
I need to get back to the AC in the bedroom. nice to chat with you diane. bbl
Later, peri :-)
Oh poor Peri. I would hate to have air conditioning in only one room when it's been as hot as it's been in our area for the past month or so.
... and done ... it was a tough one to finish ... may I offer a clue for anyone? ...
... well then ... off to the pub for a beer and the Jays game ... ... 'til tomorrow!
go Jays!
Go Orioles!!!
*thinking....go, penquis!*.....35 to find...
Well, when not a baseball fan, root for yourself.
oh i watch my share of Red Sox games...

Sadly, all the "go Pen go" cheerleaders are not around.
ah well....i will have to carry on without them....
