1:43 am

roflollll. yay for terra

1:45 am

the contestants have to find a word which the 100 people who have been surveyed DIDN'T say.

1:45 am

language shows are often fun

1:46 am

th5/24, strange word, just monkeyed it - apparently old English

1:46 am

ok, looking :)

1:47 am

flosey there are so many weird ones today

1:47 am

indeed there are Rose

1:48 am

i mean di7 ?? how does one do tha?

1:48 am

true

1:48 am

beyond me

1:50 am

oh lol I already had it. The th5 that is.

1:50 am

ok Help!! I still cannot change lickety's clues on my babble expert. Any suggestions? The clues that are up are from a couple of days ago and wont refresh . I have turned everything on and off a number of times as have I refreshed

1:51 am

hiya sandy, click on the clues, then try Control + F5

1:52 am

do you mean highlight the clues?

1:52 am

sandy, in the address line, at the end is a almost circle with an arrow on it. click that

1:53 am

or what sprite says... also works.

1:53 am

no address line in the babble expert, rose

1:53 am

no, no need to highlight, just make sure your cursor is somewhere in the clues before you do control F5

1:53 am

ahhhh, it th4 so?

1:54 am

so sprite, highlight clues? What do you mean click

1:54 am

sandy, click anywhere on the white area

1:55 am

just that... click somewhere in the clues section. place the cursor there, that is all. Then control + F5

1:55 am

left click, correct sprite, then hit f5

1:55 am

yes, left mouse button click

1:55 am

not working.... a little box with "find" is popping up

1:55 am

*wriggles with pleasure*

1:55 am

that is control + F

1:56 am

you need to do control + the key with F5 on it... upper row of the keyboard.

1:56 am

oh I see it Ill give it a go

1:57 am

OMG!! Wow that has worked !!! I am sooooo happy !! Thankyou. I know nothing about this sort of thing

1:58 am

I really suffered that last puzzle........

1:59 am

yvw :) And now you know a little more than before. The top row keys are function keys. They are preprogrammed to perform certain tasks. Control + F5 is force-refresh. Makes a page refresh no matter what.

1:59 am

Thank you so much

1:59 am

my pleasure, hun

2:00 am

<------- my hero is my best friend. xoxox

2:01 am

i will be back later, I have to cook a red chicken curry for dinner

2:01 am

*giggles* I used to be rather computer-savvy. But things are changing so fast nowadays, there are way too many things I don't know how to fix now. But this... yes, this one I did.

2:01 am

*wonders where sandy finds a red chicken*

2:02 am

sounds delish! Enjoy cooking, sandy

2:03 am

oh didi tell i met p some people from my childhood at my godmother's funeral. at the wake, i was talking to Paul, now an IT expert. he was amazed when i told him about GT. he had never heard of it.

2:03 am

and GT is?

2:04 am

google talk, silly. like wh4 you and i can do.

2:04 am

oh right :)

2:05 am

GT is rather obsolete, I think that is why. People will use WhatsApp on their cell phones, or a better IC service on their computers

2:06 am

lolll, and those of us who have an aversion to social sites, babble chat excepted?

2:07 am

they use a smart phone and wifi, and can chat with people all over the world for free, whenever they want to

2:08 am

nope, not having a SMART(ass) phone...

2:08 am

okay, i'm backward...wh4's your point?? *looking innocently at her blackberry*

2:09 am

imagine being able to drop me a line whenever, and finding my answers when you feel like it, and when we are both awake at the same time, chat easily?

2:10 am

but i can do th4 now. email and GT...if you would deign to open your gmail account... ;-P

2:10 am

We chat with grandsons and families on Skype

2:11 am

skype is nice because you can even see eachoher if you like

2:11 am

oh i have skype, flosey. <------ looks meaningfully at sprite

2:11 am

it's great being able to see them

2:11 am

I have skype too. Never use it though. Too much hassle.

2:11 am

point made, flosey

2:12 am

and no webcam installed on my puter, lol

2:12 am

<------ pouting

2:12 am

it's just a little gadget that you can clip on top of your computer

2:13 am

yeah I know. It is a concious decision, grin.

2:15 am

it's especially nice to be able to see our loved ones back in Ontario

2:18 am

yw4 my favorite word ever :D And the alt spelling too

2:25 am

flosey, if I had grandchildren, I would use skype too for sure.

2:26 am

fireflies. Nice grid. the di7/40 makes me see images of knights fighting with those long rods.

2:26 am

WTG SPRITE!!!

2:26 am

*hugs* to you both. Have a lovely evening and a peaceful night.

2:27 am

enjoy caya's concert and birthday. please be sure to give her my hugs. xoxox

2:28 am

20 to go and think I'll leave them for tomorrow, too tired tonight, goodnight all

2:33 am

sweet dreams dear flosey. xoxox

2:34 am

lol, hit a run, now down to 13!

2:37 am

hmmm, 8!! and now off for real

2:37 am

2:39 am

2:40 am

3:34 am

I seem to be brain dead today.

xe5/20

3:35 am

Thank you, Matty.

No worries - I had to look through the chog to find the stats for that when I found it as well

4:00 am

Okay 62 words left to find. Back later to see if i can finish. Happy babbling everyone!

4:57 am

43 W words...

4:58 am

good morning. I have yesterday's clues. Are today's clues up?

Hi, they are, but you'll need to do a hard refresh to get them

4:59 am

I haven't checked yet.

4:59 am

matty, Ho w do I do a hard refresh?

5:00 am

Hard refresh?

5:02 am

and the grid that I have is yesterday's grid.

What computer are you using? If it's windows, do ctrl+F5, if it's a Mac, do cmd+R

5:02 am

and the grid that I have is yesterday's grid.

5:02 am

and the grid that I have is yesterday's grid.

5:03 am

matty, I am computer illiterate. Do I have those keys down together and for how long?

5:04 am

I am using Windows?

5:04 am

I meant do I hold those keys down together?

5:05 am

Oh dear, I am screwing this up. I have Windows.

5:07 am

Do them both together.

5:07 am

I have today's grid now I need Lickety's list.

5:08 am

Just checked and expert still has yesterday's list.

5:09 am

Is there any way I can get today's list of clues?

Go to Lickety. Press ctrl+F5 at the time time. That should refresh the list

http://refreshyourcache.com/en/cache/

5:10 am

I am on Babble Expert. Where do I find Lickety. Thanks for your help.

5:10 am

Babble Expert is Lickety

Put your cursor in the list part of the Expert window, then hit ctrl+F5

5:13 am

I am sorry to sound so dense. When you say list part, where in the list part? Is it anywhere?

5:13 am

Okay, have found half of the Ws, not too bad.

Anywhere in the bit that shows you the list - just click anywhere in there and then press ctrl+F5

5:14 am

I'm assuming the clues box, at the far left.

Yep that's the one!

5:15 am

It just worked for me.

5:15 am

THANK YOU!!

No worries :)

5:15 am

But too early for me to use the list :)

I've just started with the list - I have 51 left

5:16 am

But I think I will need it soon.

So I got a bunch without it :)

5:19 am

I go through the grid and then I use the list. I usually cannot finish without the clues. Thanks again, Matty and sukee

5:19 am

That is what I do. Go through the grid, then look for clues in the chog and then use the list.

I just get as many words as I can without the list and (mostly) without looking at the chog. Then I look at the chog, then the list

5:20 am

Sound like we do it the same matty :)

Great minds think alike :)

It drives me mad when I do go to the list and find out how many no-brainer words I've missed

5:21 am

Damn, got over a sinus infection and now my nose is clogged again and making me cough. Better get on that neti pot before I need more anti-biotics.

5:21 am

I am sure part of it is allergies to my cats.

5:22 am

going to start the coffeemaker. need caffeine.

5:22 am

It helps :)

Anyone have the le6/36, please?

5:31 am

Sorry, not yet

5:39 am

Well, I have 105 left. I have to go make some breakfast. See you later.

5:45 am

I would give you a lot of le6 so that you can find that word on your own

Thanks Molly!

5:46 am

thanks, Molly

6:03 am

Hello everybody and ty Molly

6:04 am

hi (((ruby)))

6:04 am

I((annie))

6:05 am

I do a run-through on my own, trying for nbt and nbs. Then I gl5 clues in the chog, then I give up

6:06 am

But at least I get to say "hello"; it'slike taking a walk in the neighborhood (butmuch less cold!)

6:06 am

that's wh4 I do but then I go to the list. Yes, a walk in the neighorhood is nice.

6:07 am

I always like to hear what Molly has to say.

6:07 am

And here, everybody speaks English!

6:08 am

LOL. When I moved here, everyone spoke English. Now the building is 90% Russian speaking people and I wander around hoping to hear American English. lol

6:09 am

I still play mah jongg with my friends so that is a good thing.

6:10 am

t I guess it'stime to learn another language!h**'svery funny.

6:10 am

th**'s*

6:11 am

Right now, the sun is coming up bathing everything in a rosy hue and I sit here on the 23rd floor with my view of Manhattan and the Verazzano Bridge. Not ba.

6:11 am

bad.

6:11 am

and a cup of coffee and a blueberry muffin babbling.

6:11 am

and here NOBODY speaks English; I guess this is "oppositte day" or else I'mlosing my marbles

6:12 am

ruby, do you speak French fluently?

6:13 am

I just found one of your marbles.

6:14 am

Yes, but with a NY accent although my English is pretty neutral. It only took a year of remedial speech at Queens College to get rid of my New Yorkese!

6:15 am

It enabledmeto travel to places where a NY accent would have been undesirable --Tennessee, for example

6:15 am

I moved to CT and finally got rid of mine. However, put me in a room with other New Yorkers, I'm back

6:16 am

or the deep south. I guess I speak with a new york accent. I am not ashamed of it. Welcome, bichon.

6:17 am

I think there are many parts of the US where they equate a NY accent with being Jewish! Aah, my friend,Nadia just arrived with a special treat, Macdo!

6:17 am

See you later

6:17 am

Nothing wrong with a New York accent.

6:17 am

ruby, Oy vay!

6:20 am

Tuesday night I was fighting with Aetna for them to approve a med. that Bobby very much needs. I didnt understand the woman and (woe is me) I asked her if she was speaking American English and she was from Texas. Her accent was so deep I couldn't understand her.

6:22 am

I can sympathize with that Annie. Speaking of accents, I couldn't quite understand people with Indian accents, but now Phillipinos seem to dominate and they are mucch clearer

6:31 am

does anyone have a list?

6:32 am

Lickety is up, Bichon.

6:32 am

Bichon, this is what Matty told me. Go to yesterday's list, click on it and press crtl + F5 at the same time

6:33 am

oh good, Lickety is up. Hi zooz

6:33 am

Hello, Annie :-)

6:33 am

good morning dear friends

6:34 am

Hi Trif dear

6:34 am

Hello, Trif :-)

6:35 am

would you still love me if I admitted I have been at work for only 20 minutes, and already have my nap planned for this afternoon?

6:36 am

lol

6:36 am

yes, we would still love you

6:39 am

I'm so pooped lately. Seasonal, I guess

6:39 am

SAD

6:39 am

maybe?

6:40 am

They say twenty minutes walk first thing in the morning helps. Or get a SAD light.

6:42 am

thank you zoo. I am trying massive amounts of coffee today. Well, every day, lol

6:45 am

Well you are in a rather stressy job so I can see why you would. But it might be better to choose a healthier option. Although I am no expert on these matters. But lads of caffeine I a sure is not good for you in the long run.

6:45 am

Sorry if I sounded rather preachy.

6:45 am

Is that a word?

6:46 am

of course you don't! I appreciate your help. I have had a rather rotten run of insomnia for the past few weeks, and it's really getting to me.

6:46 am

so preach away

6:46 am

could be the totally sh*te regime we are living under here in the states.....

6:47 am

Yeah he is going for it that is for sure.

hi Owl.

5:01 pm

okay, gonna try and get these last 13 in the next hour

5:06 pm

if your pants are to long, wouldn't you hemify them?

5:10 pm

Probably not

5:12 pm

And wouldn't they have to be too long?

5:13 pm

no, that wouldn't make any sense

Anyone have a list, please?

Marc everyone seems to be having trouble with Lickety but it is up.

You have to refresh the list to get today's to come up

Found it on Chrome. Wasn't on Firefox

5:42 pm

*Wonders about the use of "to" and "too" in "other countries"

just finished, any clues needed?

wi6, please?

5:54 pm

A small hair piece

thanks

5:58 pm

Any clues for the A I'm missing from the second column?

5:58 pm

have the interjection

5:58 pm

oh nevermind

5:58 pm

see I missed an obvious one that I thought I had

5:59 pm

oh that was weird, had two more words than were showing up in my list

6:07 pm

I am having the same problem with lickety' list. how do I get today's list?

do you have the Chrome browser?

6:08 pm

I am on IE

6:08 pm

not using chrome

6:09 pm

I tried refeshing but it did not help

I don't know what IE is. You can download Chrome for free.

6:09 pm

internet explorer

6:09 pm

Ctrl F5

6:09 pm

that will force page to reload

6:09 pm

or you could try clearing your cache

6:12 pm

ty tried them both and now have todays clues

6:13 pm

Ctrl F5 (or Ctrl and press the reload button) will generally force a page to load again from the web instead of local cache

6:13 pm

but I've found it not to work some times

6:13 pm

it did not work the first time but it did the 2nd

6:13 pm

are you done moo?

6:14 pm

have 8 to go

6:14 pm

67 here

6:14 pm

L,S,S,S,T,W,W,W

6:28 pm

It is good that anyone does not know what IE is. Internet Exploder is the worst browser ever.

6:28 pm

Big, slow...clunky

6:28 pm

17left here

6:31 pm

8 here

6:31 pm

still

6:33 pm

fw

6:44 pm

109 to go! lol

6:51 pm

Hi. Is there a list?

6:51 pm

now there is gramma

6:52 pm

Where?

6:53 pm

Read back in the chat. You have to refresh to get the current list.

6:55 pm

I've tried to no avail

6:57 pm

what if I don't feel like refreshing?

6:58 pm

If you know what it means to clear out your cache, do that. If not, I can't help you. People who leave certain sites up and expect them to automatically refresh, often have problems.

6:58 pm

I scrolled down to the old lickety connection and now I have the list.

6:59 pm

And Ru, if you don't feel like refreshing, I hope you like women who are into gamey men. : P

6:59 pm

have a shower anyway, ruru :D

6:59 pm

lol that at the very least

7:00 pm

I haven't ever thought of myself as Gamey

7:00 pm

teenage boys bedrooms reek

7:02 pm

although i'm game for anything :D

7:03 pm

gamey: smells like the game men who hunt go after...somewhat smelly and all that

7:04 pm

<---smells like a spring blossom most of the time

7:04 pm

Teenage boys bedrooms smell like what teenage boys do in those bedrooms. Oh sorry, that is probably not PG rated like this board.

7:04 pm

ooops

7:05 pm

...play video games?

7:07 pm

Sure Judi

7:07 pm

Hiyas, kiddos!

7:08 pm

does what you are talking about have to do with Monkeys Molly :D

7:08 pm

<---Is reminded that Judi doesn't have kids

7:09 pm

<<<<<< Have an older brother. Nuff said.

7:10 pm

No, not monkeys (the endless mention here) But has something to do with a skunky smell

7:14 pm

would someone tell me which t i'm missing urg

7:15 pm

Blah. Don't ask me. I have 107 words left.

7:20 pm

Okay. Broke 100. Can go play with the cat before she explodes. See y'all later! *POOF*

7:22 pm

Just guessing...exam + Latin ending?

7:23 pm

nope.. found it.. much dumber than that

7:23 pm

Well, I would not be the one to suggest a "much dumber"

7:26 pm

sometimes the most obvious ones are hidden from me

7:33 pm

good evening everyone.

9:19 pm

hi Nef

9:20 pm

I've had too many interruptions today to get much done here; I have 115 left to find. Not sure if I'll finish; it looks like lots of people have been stuck on this grid for long periods of time.

9:20 pm

Hi Bugs. How are you doing tonight?

9:21 pm

babbleis interuptus

9:21 pm

I am doing well, thanks. Took a day off since I cleaned the house yesterday.

9:21 pm

Hi ruru.

9:21 pm

if you clean mine bugs you can take the rest of the week off :D

9:21 pm

LOL, ru; you got it! :-)

9:22 pm

it is not an easy grid for sure but I come and go lots

9:22 pm

I shot you back an email this morning by the way bugs

9:23 pm

I was here sometime around or before lunch and at that time moolinga had 15 left!

9:23 pm

I saw it and heard from our mutual friend as well. Good day here.

9:24 pm

mool, did you finish yet?

9:24 pm

oh great.. we've been having great talks she and i

9:24 pm

9:25 pm

Hello Bugsaw! How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle.

9:25 pm

Hi Min! How are you doing today?

9:25 pm

Hello Nef! How are you doing today? Welcome to the chog

9:25 pm

9:25 pm

hello Minveryork. Always happy to see you here.

9:25 pm

(actually, tonight)

9:26 pm

how did your court date go minver?

9:26 pm

mool, I hope you have been away from the deck for a good part of the day too!

9:27 pm

oh yeah

9:27 pm

keep getting distracted :)

9:27 pm

was just watching hockey for instance

9:27 pm

Yes, Min; I was typing the same thing when I saw ru posted the same thing

9:27 pm

It was fine, I guess.It was a waste of time and money. I did not leave with any new info. Missed a half day of work for nothing. Just wa 4/8ing to hear back from my lawyer now

9:28 pm

glad to hear you are protecting yourself with lawyers, Min. Just wished it went better

9:28 pm

:-( I'm sorry that it wasn't very helpful.

9:30 pm

distractions abound today here too, mool

9:31 pm

geez, really struggling with these last 8

9:32 pm

well make that 7

9:32 pm

Story of clues already posted in profile for those struggling

9:32 pm

you are doing the right thing minver

9:35 pm

Hope so. There are days when I doubt if th 4/5 is all worth it.I'm usually an extremely patient individual, but th 4/5 is just taking FOREVER!!!!!!!!!! I cannot wa 4/5 to move on!

9:35 pm

it took me a long time too minver

9:35 pm

have all those min :)

9:35 pm

but thanks

9:35 pm

in the end.. it's all worth it.. believe me

9:36 pm

I got divorced once

9:36 pm

I agree with ru. I've never been through a divorce; but my son has & I know how frustrating it was for him

9:36 pm

things will be SO much better when they are settled properly though. you will not regret this later.

9:36 pm

self-happiness at the end of it all is the best result

9:36 pm

i'm happier now than I've been in more than a decade

9:37 pm

And no way th4/5 there will be legal strings attached

9:39 pm

I am with Nef. Some exes are so vindictive they keep trying to change the rules so nothing is ever settled so stick with lawyers and protect yourself. You deserve to be happy!

9:40 pm

okay, anyone clue me on the last 2 7s?

9:40 pm

Yep.

9:40 pm

What do they start with, mool?

9:40 pm

9:43 pm

9:44 pm

le 7/32 and se 7/48

9:44 pm

nm, got the se

9:44 pm

I could get married again though

9:45 pm

I did

9:45 pm

I just need to find a barge :D

9:45 pm

ah, I give up on this board...night all

9:46 pm

see you in the morning

9:46 pm

oh.. I just realized I should go to the pb!

9:46 pm

night mool

9:46 pm

good night mool

9:46 pm

I know where you can find at least 2. If he gets 3 we are in trouble!

9:46 pm

I can help if you want to finish

9:47 pm

it could be worse bugs.. he could like to rebuild Pintos or something

9:47 pm

Not that anyone is asking for my advice, but don't rush a second marriage.

9:47 pm

no Pintos but there are lot more cars than he admitts to out there.

9:49 pm

No kidding Bugs! I know so many women who got into a relationship almost immediately and the new guy is always "the exact opposite" of the old guy....until he turns out to be pretty much just like the old guy.

9:50 pm

and there is truth to the saying that the things that attracted you will end up being the things that annoy the heck out of you too.

9:50 pm

I'm not rushing into marriage .. believe me

9:53 pm

One way to avoid another divorce is to not get remarried.I will not be getting remarried.I am open to having another relationship, but certainly not another marriage, no way!

9:53 pm

Hello m9f9l! How are you doing today? Welcome to the PB

9:54 pm

I'm happy. It hasn't rained much while this snow is melting!

9:54 pm

I have a dear friend that has been married 4 times. The 1st guy was addicted to sex -- with many women, the # 2& 3 were alcoholics; and # 4 *was* an alcoholic but has been dry for close to 20 years now. But at least he's staying dry & sober. (I just don't understand how a smart person can find so many bad matches?)

9:54 pm

Think th 4/5 there are at least 20 babblers in PB already. I have se 4/4 words spilled in the chat log all evening long.

9:54 pm

I thought that too Min. I was alone for 7 years and then dated my second husband for another 7 years before we shared a home.

9:55 pm

I know I am in there!

9:56 pm

I like being married. Call me old fashioned

9:57 pm

Well,I am not a Spring chicken so not planning on having a family with anybody. I just have to get through what I am going through now before I even think about dating again

9:57 pm

I like it. After 33 years together we're getting pretty good at it.

9:58 pm

THat's a great plan, Min. And allow yourself healing time too

9:59 pm

I think I'd be ok on my own though. I have a lot of hobbies and interests.

9:59 pm

I took three years monver

10:00 pm

I am not a spring chicken either. Maybe more of a sprung chicken😀

10:01 pm

healing time is so important.

10:01 pm

Yeah, I hear you m9. We've been married 43 years; and even though things can be tough at times; we're in for the long haul. (Sometimes, though, I need a break from the care taking part. I has to learn to do that more often)

10:03 pm

I'm just overwh5ed right now because there's so many OTHER people in the house! LOL

10:04 pm

I have 61 to go, have listed, and it's still a grind.

10:04 pm

How many are living with you now, m9?

10:05 pm

There's me and the husband, ALL four of the children, the oldest's husband and their 3 children. And the dog and two cats.

10:05 pm

And one bathroom :-)

10:06 pm

Wow

10:06 pm

Oh, Wow! I grew up with 9 in our family; but at least we had 1 1/2 bathrooms.

10:06 pm

wow is what I say , you must have a large house

10:07 pm

Yeah, if you do the math that's 10 persons. And no, we do not have a large house.

10:07 pm

*buys m9 an outhouse*

10:07 pm

three of the people are pretty small though, so they don't take up much space...hah!

10:08 pm

I hope you all get along and that enough money comes in to lower the stress levels

10:08 pm

We always have people here but the amount varies . The small people make the most mess!

10:08 pm

Money is always a stress. BUT... we get along great.

10:08 pm

And the food bills must take a toll

10:08 pm

THat's good

10:09 pm

My daughter and her husband aren't paying rent so they buy most of the groceries and she does most of the cooking. My older son has a job and contributes also. $400 a month, so that helps and still allows him to save a lot.

10:10 pm

We do what we have to to help our kids-and it binds the family as well

10:11 pm

We actually asked for less, but when he got a raise a while back he upped it himself.

10:11 pm

Are they all saving for their own houses?

10:11 pm

Nice kids you have there m9

10:11 pm

The little family is paying off student debt, and the son is thinking of using some of his savings for more education.

10:12 pm

I say "more".. I should probably just say education.

10:12 pm

He's thinking of becoming an electrician

10:13 pm

good field. lots of work there

10:13 pm

My son & grandson moved back here after his rent got raised by $200/month (I asked him to because DH was becoming too much for me to handle alone); but then his job ended unexpectedly too a week later.

10:13 pm

Oh Nef! That's hard!

10:14 pm

Education is a good investment.The two of mine that have degrees have very good jobs

10:14 pm

Whereas I have 2 degrees and have never worked with them, :-D

10:15 pm

Good thing you were able to offer a safety net for your son, Nef.

10:15 pm

I never finished school

10:16 pm

I'm either overqualified or underqualified for everything around here in this little town.

10:16 pm

but you don't stop working and have done very well

10:16 pm

Well, he's found a part time job& is interviewing like crazy now. He's turned down 2 jobs this week: 1 in Tokyo, & 1 in AZ because of his son wanting to see his mom every week & also because of us (I think)

10:16 pm

He's got his priorities straight! Glad he found something.

10:17 pm

What is he interviewing for?

10:17 pm

Family is important, Nef and your boy is putting the proper things first. Something will come up. good karma

10:18 pm

He's a quality assurance specialist for computer programmers; and he's done that long distance for 3 years; but the 2 offers he got wanted him on site.

10:18 pm

Thanks, Bugs.

10:19 pm

Ah! Hope he finds something soon! Sounds like he should.

10:21 pm

I give up! Tired of looking for the le6/36. Any clues please

10:21 pm

I think he will. I told him that if he moved in with us he could save most of his rent money for his downpayment on a house; but it hasn't worked out that way.

10:21 pm

Le 6 a liitle edge off a problem

10:22 pm

A margin of error?

10:22 pm

10:23 pm

10:23 pm

10:24 pm

10:24 pm

10:24 pm

10:26 pm

Put "a margin of error" into the reverse dictionary to get it

10:26 pm

10:33 pm

ok.. since I'm slogging here. Suggestions for music?

10:33 pm

I finally opened rickety; no wonder I couldn't find that Y word!

10:33 pm

LICKETY; not rickety

10:34 pm

How many do you have to go?

10:35 pm

10:36 pm

I guess it just feels that way, I still have 85 to go. :-(

10:36 pm

YAY, m9f9l!!! WTG!!!

10:45 pm

Need help?

10:46 pm

No, that's okay. I should really stop chatting & work on the grid & I'd probably get more done that way. ;-)

10:47 pm

(Seriously, I really try not to care if I don't finish ; nor do I worry about my standings /stats anymore. It makes it more fun this way)

10:48 pm

Yeah.. I have lots of days that I don't finish

10:49 pm

I gotta go anyway..family prayer time!

10:49 pm

I do hate it, though, when I try to enter a word and I can't finish because of the flip.

10:50 pm

Okay Good night m9. take care!

10:58 pm
