NBT and NBS doesn't mean anything, point wise. It is just something that someone made up years ago and it has perpetuated through the years. Like "monkeys" and "babblets".

Good morning, all.

Good morning, judi.

7:57 am

Coffee is too strong. Hair sprouting on tongue.

8:03 am

I just had an absolute stupiphany! I am going to tell you my secret but from this moment on, it shall be known as the gramma method. No monetary profit from this shall be claimed without a tithe to me. Me, the inventor or shall I say discoverer of the gramma method to babble.

8:05 am

(waiting breathlessly for gramma's revelation)

8:06 am

oh tell oh tell us all

8:06 am

Gramma's either going to give us an infomercial or a Ted Talk.

8:07 am

Oh I hope it is information. I hate Ted Talks.

8:08 am

The sun was shining in on my screen. I had to turn it at an angle to cut the glare and low and behold 20 or so more words appeared. I cannot stop them from falling into my line of vision. It's like they were there the whole time but now I can see them clearly. You may try my method for free, just once. Then you must pay me every time you use it. It's a miracle cure for Babble Blindness!

8:09 am

I know. I know. It really is worth the price. Just stay calm and babble on.

8:09 am

Enlightened!

8:10 am

Judi, could you please write a review of this method so others can understand it's greatness.

8:10 am

*Wonders how many people will actually try this

8:10 am

I just did. Got five more words. It's like magic.

8:10 am

Peer review is needed. Babblers, tilt your screens!

8:10 am

Molly, don't wonder, try it.

8:11 am

shom

8:11 am

Torgo, remember the first time is free.

8:11 am

*Contacts attorneys for Gramma when the people who try it and fail attempt litigation.

8:12 am

gramma cannot be held responsible for others stupidity or lack of vision.

8:13 am

I might never go back to normal view! Until I get stuck, and go back, and see all these new words! Honestly, I wish there was a way to rotate the tiles 90 degrees. New perspectives help so much in this.

8:13 am

keen

8:13 am

sorry!

8:14 am

I'm off for the day. See you all tomorrow.

8:15 am

Use the "snip" tool to snip the grid. Save it to your desktop. Open it with PAINT and then rotate it 90 degrees left or right.

8:20 am

Molly, you are trying to steal my shine! I will not tolerate such blatant thievery! Just move your screen. No need to snip or paint. I am flattered that you have found the wisdom in my madness. Now back off! It's already a perfect method. See Pastor found keen.

9:21 am

i just started and i have a lot to go yet

9:21 am

I always have a lot to go. . . not really very good at this game but enjoy it anyway

duhs should be a word. I drop a lot of duhs every day in the chat.

several sea birds today

9:29 am

harpjane is going to have a field day

I have several sea birds but don't see any relating to skunk

9:29 am

judge removes himself?

if a judge knows the defendant he will say "I have to re6 myself from this case." I have no idea how to clue if you don't get that.

9:31 am

The weirdest L word ends in a higher point vowel

9:36 am

still 11 4's, they must be odd or babblets I'm not seeing.

ooh, bottom a abolished!

9:38 am

high point vowel. took me a while because I was thinking vowels were all 1 except the sometimes vowel. but there is another 2pt vowel around there.

woot! 4th col gray!

9:56 am

Well, keep going and you will have guessed all of them

10:01 am

sk + last 3 of Stapleton, actress in All In The Family, plus vowel.

np, let's all have a good day now :D

np, I think it's fun trying to guess the missing words. feels like a nancy drew story "the case of the missing words"

2:33 pm

This grid is positively lousy with birds--one for harpjane for certain.

3:04 pm

Have all the words in the grid been clued yet? I think they might have.

3:35 pm

30 to go!

3:35 pm

I guess I need to go back and look, Molly, lol. Thanks, they're not jumping out at me today.

3:39 pm

stuck at 27. will bbl to list. hagd all

3:40 pm

Hey amelu, how did the 4th of July festivities go?

3:42 pm

I was unaware there was a limit to the number of clues that could be given in any particular day. Molly, maybe you should get a whistle, and blow it when you deem too many clues have been given. Or.... maybe people should just be allowed to ask for & receive clues without being judged.

3:46 pm

We are actually going to do it on 07/25, as that is about midway between birthdays. But I did get a little over $2K in fireworks yesterday, lol.

3:47 pm

Thanks for asking/remembering!

3:51 pm

hello soooooodle, if you are still here

3:55 pm

Hey Trif. Still here. 🤗

3:56 pm

see a certain party has the whistle out again - sigh

3:56 pm

soodle, I got to see my nephew today! He is just 11 months old, and su

3:56 pm

SUCH a treat!

3:57 pm

Trif - your profile pic is the Triffiest thing I ever saw. Only YOU could post such a Triffy pic. I LOVE IT

3:57 pm

Trif - your profile pic is the Triffiest thing I ever saw. Only YOU could post such a Triffy pic. I LOVE IT

3:58 pm

thank you! They were not so helpful that day....silly goats

3:59 pm

How are you & yours faring in this Covid sh^tstorm, Trif?

4:01 pm

its been a thing, that is for sure. americans, on the whole, are sort of driving me mental at the moment, especially the mango in chief

4:02 pm

i hear the pubs are open again, that must be a relief, lol

4:03 pm

It’s been a weird 4 months here too. Heck.

4:03 pm

are the cinemas and theatres open as well?

4:04 pm

Nope! Not yet. Only pubs serving food (which are few & far between). No cinemas, no theatres.

4:05 pm

churches?

4:06 pm

To be honest - I have no burning desire to go into a pub/cinema/theatre.

4:06 pm

I'm right there with you

4:07 pm

Doh!!! Of course churches!!! This is Ireland!!! Max attendance 50, though.

4:07 pm

mine is not open yet. we had a meeting and decided to continue to do it online until september

4:07 pm

we even have a social zoom meeting after.

4:08 pm

I have a Government job. They’re saying nobody is going back to the office till the Fall

4:08 pm

big news in the goathouse! second round of phoebe eggs hatched, and the babies are just about ready to fledge. cute as a button, each one

4:09 pm

i'm glad you are able to work from home

4:09 pm

and you will always, always have health care, no matter what!

4:11 pm

Wait!! Explain!! Phoebe eggs? What are they?

4:12 pm

oh! we have a bird in the states called a phoebe - sweet little songbird. one has taken quite a liking to above the light fixture in the goat house. she laid one set of five eggs earlier this spring, and followed up with a second round of four mid-june

4:13 pm

Phoebes are tiny little things, weighing less than an ounce. lovely singing voices though

4:16 pm

How delightful!!! (I just wish you had referred to the goat-house as the ‘old-goat house’. Fans of Mamma Mia will understand.

4:17 pm

we made that joke!!!! Sophie was tickled to know I now had a place to hide her three possible dads, lololol ---

4:18 pm

🤗. How prescient that it was Sophie who made that comment!

4:18 pm

right?

4:18 pm

hahahahah

4:19 pm

And, you are so right. I have healthcare. Looking down the barrel,

4:19 pm

Barrel of 60 in September....

4:20 pm

not ever having to worry about seeing a doctor must be such a relief

4:22 pm

My late Mam’s house has just been sold & for the forst time in 15 years, I am financialy

4:22 pm

that's so good to read

4:23 pm

Financially solvent. My grand plan to take a trip to the US has been thwarted by a bloody virus!!

4:23 pm

you will ALWAYS have a free place to stay near Boston!

4:25 pm

Thank you, my friend. Much appreciated. I bitterly regret not taking my dear friend RubyFoo’s many invitations.

A nice conversation going on!! I will join by saying hello ladies. :-)

4:26 pm

that poor lady.....she so earned her rest

4:26 pm

hello diane!

4:26 pm

Hello Diane. 🤗

4:28 pm

How have you been doung

4:29 pm

how have you been doing, Diane?

I haven't played Babble much lately, ( my profile will explain) byt I hope to play more often in the future!

Two daughters just arrived with some yummy looking iced cappuccinos......be back later!!

4:31 pm

That’s why I asked. My sincere sympathies on the loss of your beloved Wally. How are you doing?

I am doing okay Soodle....missing him terribly but we will all be fine.

4:33 pm

Many hugs to you, Diane. Enjoy your daughters & your coffee

4:34 pm

Trif - i’m

4:34 pm

i am sorry to read about Wally, Diane.....

4:35 pm

Hello ladies. I have not played Babble in some time but want to say how sorry I am for your loss, Diane. It is always sad to lose someone but not being able to congregate makes it worse. My heart goes out to you.

4:35 pm

hello bugsaw! You have been missed

4:36 pm

Thank you Trif but I don't believe it. I felt the need to do different things during our lockdown so the days didn't feel so long.

4:37 pm

Oh my goodness. 2 Babblers I have met in real life here at the same time. I am blessed. Hi (((Bugsaw)))

4:38 pm

Hugs back to you Soodle. I am sorry for the way you came into some financial safety but glad that it happened for you. Not many houses are selling here because of job insecurity.

4:40 pm

I hope you get to play with that gorgeous grandson sooner rather than later.

4:40 pm

It’s bittersweet, Bugs, thats for sure. At least I won’t be tempted to blow my inheritance on a frivolous ho

4:41 pm

Holiday. Apologies. Playing on an iPad.

4:42 pm

I was sure you meant something else. I thought another house maybe.

4:42 pm

🤪🤪🤪

4:46 pm

This evening has been one of the most enjoyable evenings I have had on Babble for a long time. Lovely friendly company. Like the old days. I’m off to bed now. Bless you all. Stay safe & keep in touch.

4:47 pm

Stay safe. So glad to have chatted with you again, Soodle.

5:05 pm

sleep well, darling

hello trif

5:06 pm

hello TO! how goes the battle today?

we had rain! finally! hoping for actial green grass tomorow.

cooled off considerably, too.

you?

5:10 pm

we had some rain last night, which was very welcome. just coming off a HARD weekend of yard work, stiff alllll over

oof. that'll do it.

i am debating an evening walk. still threatening out.

khat

5:12 pm

great hint, thank you! xox

;)

5:19 pm

almost time for the nightly alchemy, in which boring stuff in the fridge suddenly morphs into meat, potato and two veg

just finished making fried rice.

i was very bored with food and it's too hot to cook

5:20 pm

YUM! Would you please upload some?

um....all gone. used a bag of frozen rice with veggies as a base, very fast and easy.

i have a photo but i cannot upload that either.

5:21 pm

sounds perfect for a summer dinner

tomorrow it will be caprese salad.

my cholesterol is high so i am at wits' end, coupled with heat, borefom and just plain laziness. i don't eat things like tuna or egg salad or cold cuts.

oops. sorry, meant to erase that.

5:24 pm

mine is too! I am supposed to be losing weight - nothing is working

it foes get harder. walking?

5:25 pm

yes, and cutting out all the carbs I can, less/no sugar....my body just likes being the way it is

yes. that does happen. i was so sick for a while i lost a bit but it's back/ didn't take long.

i cannot see myself going back to the gym. i've seem how people act/ no way.

5:27 pm

I am so disappointed in people right now

damn that l, i am mising one.

please. at church, many with no masks. they'd done them in a hearbeat if they were going out to lumch.

5:28 pm

i only have 2

it's awfully still out. i think another storm's coming.

5:34 pm

im toddling off to cook....see you later I hope. thank you so much for the fine chat, everyone

5:34 pm

a lovely reminder of what the chog CAN be

bye trif. hugs a goat for me. ;)

See you again soon, Trifioso. I agree, nice chatting this afternoon :-)

after you cook, that is

hello diane. i read your news, very sorry.

bbs

5:36 pm

oh - very sorry to read Diane.

Thank you TO :-) We had a wonderful 60 years, full of great memories. ( 63 years actually....we started dating at ages 17 and 19 )

5:36 pm

my brother just got diagnosed with gbm

Thank you, Harry. I am sad to hear about your brother; how old is he?

5:39 pm

59 I think... maybe 58....I'd have to do some math

The same age as our eldest daughter......still so very young. Wally was 82.

i

5:40 pm

it's all tough - no matter the age.

5:43 pm

families go through strings of bad times - we had many deaths about 30-40 years ago, and went for a few decades with relatively little tragedy. Then these last few years have been awful once again.

5:45 pm

done!

I have 60 remaining but it's a nice grid.

unker

Strange.....I wondered where the last half of my word went....must remember to move the cursor!

5:51 pm

have a good day all (what remains of it)

Bye for now, Harry.

6:16 pm

hello everyone

Hello, Nan.....neighbour to the west of me :-)

7:17 pm

What is gbm Harry?

7:27 pm

Going to start our dinner. I had a late lunch so we will have a salad of some sort. It is always uplifting to follow along on the chog. Folks have so many insights that are worthy of contemplation. I've given up about on the News.

7:29 pm

Oh I looked it up. So sorry Harry
