Well, all those are great words. But they are not going to get you any points if you keep typing them over here. They need to go on the Add Word box.

John is now in Sydney, but he does say much
*poof*
doesn't*
dark, gloomy and wet here
What is your son doing in Sydney, Ruby? Business or pleasure?
... sun isn't up yet ... so it's gloomy at the moment ... it's supposed to be an okay day but not great
Good morning all
Pleasure. Oiginal plan was 4 days in Melbourne then on to NZ for two weeks
(lunch arrived)
Neither son nor his wife are working right now so it's all pleasure. As the French say, 3it'snot my onions!
*It's nott....
I can't imagine living that way, but they seemhappy
30 left, bye fr now
I had to look up "it's not my onions". It means "it's none of my business". : D
Mothers often have to remember that one.
tx Ruby and Molly -- new to me! :-)
It's better in French, "Lost in Translation"maybe
BTW, do** anybody else LOVE that movie?
... Bill murray for the oscar ...
Good morning
sen ne
sorry about that
I've watched it 3 times and he gets better each time. Did he win an oscar?
... no ... but I voted for him ... in the pool at school
Who won the Booker Prize last night? I fell asleep but dreamed I was at a Trump party and somebody stolemy car
ruby, do you voe in US elections?
This awful election invades my dreams!
the young man who wrote "The Sellout" won the Booker.
I could but don't. I can barely get out of bed in the morning....
... Paul Beatty for The Sellout ... haven't read it
TY Cece. It's hard to stay up
... I'm sure that Donald would object but is voting by proxy available to you ... I'm sure it would be too late now but maybe next time
When I order books fromAmazon or clothers from LLBean, the postage cost more than the orders
international rates are exorbitant.
Can you get a Kindle and read them electronically?
I am so anxious about this election, that I even dream about Donald (ptuii)
i voted yesterday - love early voting!
Is reading with a Kindle eye straining like the computer?
on behalf of all sane americans, I apologize for Donald trump. he is absolutely the LOWEST common denominator
and good morning
Second that. This is an embarassment for all sane Americans.
Amen, Trif!!!
And my friends here are allhorrified by what's going on
fearful for Nato and more
All I can say is: How can this have happened? It hurts me to see Trump signs here in Connecticut
I have stomach cramps just thinking what would happen if he did win. He is the WORST. And, even if he loses, I can never turn a blind eye to the fact that he got so much traction in the first place. America has an underbelly of ignorant people that horrifies me, and is WAY WORSE than I had ever imagined.
I think nobody took him seriously in time
The woman who leads the Rep party in Ohio was interviewed on TV completely dissing Obama, and actually said, on national television "He has ruined everything! This country never had a race problem until he came to power!" I. can't.
A big reason is that so few people voted in the primaries
I'm afraid that even when he loses, there'll be violence in the aftermath
<it's very scary, even at this distance
There will be something, for sure. I don't even think he wants to be President. It's all about his ego
I saw a clip of Obama mocking Trump. It wasn't very presidential, but I loved it.
If I'm still alive, I'll vote for Michelle Obama in '28!!!
toed
whoops
sorry about that
name that proper noun! young sally field role
... gidget
ding ding ding!
... I tried it ... it didn't work
hi hurshy
right, hence the using it for NTPN
???
the reason i invented the game was to deal with the frustration of things not being taken
aaah, slow nellie
hi ruby
how's france
and the book found in every hotel room?
gideon
clever cookie
wet and gloomy, but I'm glad I'm in such a remote part
hello Lynxx
... Oh I thought somebody might have used it as a regular noun once in the past one hundred years so that the game would take it
hi Ruby and all
... is the next french election going to be any better than the current american one,ruby?
top two rows grey!
not better. Sarkozy- is deeply unpopular, LePen is Trump in drag.....
or the next British election?Think the world is going to hell in a hand cart to use a good old expression!
We got the guy we wanted - but he turned out the be a Fizzer
My husband ust be spinning in his urn -- still in the pantry, sorry Burt
steno
Fizzer???
a disappointment
... all sizzle ... no steak
LOVE that....but how to use it, when no one over here would know what it means? hmmm....perhaps I will start a new craze! Fizzers!
... We got the son of the guy we wanted ... ... looks good but doesn't have his father's gravitas ... cute kids though
We have v. funny show over here called Gruen Report...always has a segment on "what would Justin do"...very funny little segments on what the gorgeous PM is doing. Host is gay and fancies Justin a lot.
sorry only just saw what I did
... Justin is a very nice young man ... and an acceptable alternative to the Donald Trump that the conservatives will nominate because that branch of the party will take it over
Know the feeling Ruby my husband is in the bottom of my daughters wardrobe accompaniedby her two cats!
... but surely we can do better ......we,like everyone else, just don't seem to be able to ...
seems all the idols have clay feet nowadays - or is it just that we find out about them almost instantly now. Can't hide anything anymore.
name that proper noun...popular ketchup
I'm not so sure any more, dose
... the slowest running ketchup in the west ...north,south and east
or Kerry's wife
is.....
hi Annie
ding ding ding!!!
hi lynxxx
whats the name of the ketchup?
... I think it's the instant news ... in unending volume ... volume both as quantity and loudness
... Heinz
ruby and dose got it..Heinz
... my quote is from a very old commercial
Trif, Bichon, if still here--yes, about the horror of Trujmp. Aoszen of us older women have made a taoe for Hillary--hi ow far women have come, how far we have yet to go--i need to put it on here--its calleed voices from the heartland--
dozen. I fear violence too, even if Trump were to win--at this point it looks like he won't, but we have to get the senate to stop the gridlock
... must leave some for later ... sunny skies and luck for all ... bye for now
by Dos
It was upsetting when Sarah Palin was running for the vice presidency. It is now worse. We have Donald Trump. Yes, he makes my stomach ache when I see and hear him on TV.
and Pence is no day on the beach!
I view Babblers as intelligent--don't think we'll find T supporters here--
I fear for this country.
I saw 2 épisodes of a naty new series on HBO, The Young Pope. Catholics must be furious!
make sure you all vote
Roundbarn, I think, unfortunately, there are some
thank you round barn.
nassty* series
one of my saddest sadnesses about my mum being lost to us due to alzheimers is that she never got to cast her vote for a woman president. She would have been SO excited!
I mosxtly lurk but I admire so many of you. Was gone for a while--what has happened to Crossy? He was always interesting. Unique.
wait crossy left? I am so out of the loop
Political discussions, although I relish them, generally turn sour
too many brickbats for Crossy I think
hey rb lurking here also
I hope he's OK, another cancer survivor
hi rasta
I think he is working again too (can't remember detail) so probably busy as well
hi, raxta--you're up early. Now you know I was--am--on Yosh's tape. Of course I wanted Bernie--but the reality is, we can't lose the supreme court and the climate
not talking politics on Babble
class period is almost over, off to the grind for this gal. xoxox everyone
ok. I have a cold but am improving. Illness is ok.Say hi to the goats.
I wish we didn't, but Trump is so jarring that we are a stressed out nation
27 left, but feel like goin back to bed
Bye Trif
ill go with you ruby, I could use a nap
It helps me to t&lk about stuff, however controversial, as long as there's no name-calling
or shaming
never for you ruby
Bichon, did I send you "bothers with different others" -- the cutest, ever
brothers*
no, I don't think so
I'll send it

We're just on different schedules then.

Good to see you.

brb, must start the oven
it is making my tummy do somersaults
is the project for school?
yes, for my MA
on the bright side, this is a very nice grid.
are all the students in this class doing projects?
this grid isn't bad like it better then yesterday's still wish it were a bit bigger though
everyone has to do the same project, yeah. and anyone who hasn't passed by monday will be in a very bad situation.
that does not sound good?
right. "very bad" is not good. opposites.
I knew that:)
is it a pass or fail type of a situation in terms of the class itself?
(puts tums out in the PB)
hihi ruru
what ruru?
hi ruru
yes, pass/fail. this is the only thing you do, this project. if you pass it you pass the class, if you don't you don't.
he is putting tums for my tummy
because i said my nervousness is making my tummy go nuts
oh geez good luck hurshy:)
thank you ruru
<---has to be explained all the time

Male body parts are used as clues here a lot

found a 7! nbt, nbs and halfway :)
2/3 done. bbl
se 6/18, pls
sounds like not the House, but the other one, then plural
This is my first time playing this crazy game. Just wondering how one could know they need to find a 6 letter word worth 18 points starting with an SE before they find it? By the way, I SWEAR I've found every word in here and it says I still have 33 left. LOL
Welcome lambobuick! There are some helps available, with links at the bottom of the page. The most helpful is LICKETY, who generates a list with the first 2 letters, number of letters, and total points. Have fun!
thanks. :)
as in house of represenstatives?
Yes, MLF. There is the House and the Se****. Spell the latter in a different way.
I know MLF I was thinking setheapartment : D
LOL!
Then I realized I had the word but was thinking barracuda not government
i was actually using the wrong se
that could happen with this election
True, MLF
is ge 4/7 a word we have had before?
Either way this election goes we are in trouble for the next 4 years
yes.
yeah no kidding on that one Molly
se 6/18, pls
From the top se, bichon. Has a double consonant in it.
ends in the alien *.*.
finally found the ge 4/7
ty ch
do6?
Recipients of people's generosity
It's a plural.
more help please....
I am still not comfortable with the past tense of hot. It sounds like something an English teacher would shriek about.
If you give to a charity, you do**** to them, making you a do***. The people who get what you gave, are the do***s (that's the singular and plural for you :)
that looks so strange molly
is it a double vowel on the end ch?
Of course the Brits use a gerund on the end of hot so go figure
yes :)
ty got it
clue for the di6?
reader's di**** ends in ge4/6
ah.. thanks, MLF!
welcome ch:)
That's fw for me -- any clues needed before I go?
clue for gi 5/20

Hi Mo

Hmm. Either A). This grid is easy peasy & nobody needs/wants clues, or B). My icon has offended people and nobody will speak to me. Hmmm
<-----Not finding the grid easy peasy, so...
<-----Not finding the grid easy peasy, so...
I think your icon is hilarious -- on target!@

SO 7/28 is the same :-)
Well you know what I mean lol
Soodle, I love your icon!

Oh sorry, there is a consonant in between those two things

A day late and a consonant short
