Love me some Mama Cass.

Wow. That's quite a musical leap.]
Paul Revere and the Raiders. Peaches and Herb. Herb Alpert and the TJ Brass...
all or nothing.
Did you know that The Carpenters and Bread were going to collaborate? Baby I'm A Want To Be Close To You"
hah!
OOh. Musical collabs. Let's have some fun with that.
I liked Bread and The Carpenters when I was ten years old spinning 45's. My musical taste evolved from there. Can't say that I still dig either band.
Mamas & Papas & J. Geils: Words of Love Stinks.
Queen and the Grateful Dead were going to get toghether and play You're my Best Friend of the Devil
Name that proper noun: Famous Hun in the grid today.
atilla
I am not having fun with this grid.
Ding! Ding! Ding! Bea wins a stunning leather helmet with pointy horns.
Ace of Base together with Pinkfong: All that she wants is another baby shark
I assume the bottom A is ae?

Nope
nope
well that explains it
Molly, how do you like your air fryer?
Damn, Bea is like Quickdraw McGraw
I loved him.
proper noun: you were supposed to have been immortal! that's all they wanted! not much to ask for!
I have tried the air fryer for several things. It is great for some, not so great for others. I'm glad I got it though.
Which kind did you get?
stats on aj please?
4/9
Aj4, Rob
thx
I got the Ninja 4 quart. With just two of us, I didn't need to go bigger.
Harry, I will get you for this. I now have The Carpenters playing in my head.
Mr. Bea made me a cart for my air fryer and instant pots and all the gadgets that go with them.
{{{ cranks up "Hells Bells" }}} for Molly.
high voltage! concrete shoes!
clue for bottom E please?
en5.10
Speaking of time warps, I've been binge watching episodes of "Frasier" lately. I forgot how damn funny that show was.
a classic show! the no-dialogue scene where niles tries to iron his pants!
Love Niles! He won so many Emmys for that show.
I must be blind - the bottom e is en5/10?
harry, it's ea 4/7
Yes, so sorry
got it. ty lc
phew. thought I was losing my mind. nbt :)
gotta get ready for class. 40 to go - I think I will be listing this one between classes.
Finally cleared that N. Just two tiles left.
I need a handy person like Mr. Bea around. My list of things that need to be fixed is very long.
The cart sits where the trash can was. Now he is making a trash container to pull out from under the sink.
Anyone have a clue for the Ou7/44?
The last part is pt for another word meaning touch
Not getting it. Ugh.
How about a wool like textile used in crafting
ou7/44 would be to exceed in emotion
That's the Ou7/40. I need the 44.
ou7/44 - to win at covering a billiards table?
19 left. This grid is a pain in the toosh.
ou7/40 - to win at bartending?
Thanks, Dan. That got it done.
=)
hello
*Sigh* There are not enough Mr. Bea's in the world.

up6 clue pls

i found a 7
nice, mlfan
We are good. We had snow yesterday.
ty hokie
wow!
About 4". It's still on the ground. I think we are expecting more Sunday night.
apparently you didnt want to send it to me
wow again! how close are you to NC State? mr. homie was going to take the youngest on Sun to drive around campus since you can't do official visits right now, but he said it's supposed to rain all day.
We are about an hour north of State. Great college, nice campus. In asketchy part of town, but...
I took the oldest on a t4 there and didn't really like the campus. the youngest also got into UNC so I think they might swing through there too.
Aw, yes, UNC
I think he'd rather go to UNC but wants to do engineering so NCSU would be much better fit since I don't think UNC has engineering.
yuck, just noticed 19 v's
Hi all
howdy sukee
Well, I just paid our $1300 to the vet.
just found an MTV word!
yikes, surgery?
I see it
No, he had a blockage of his bladder. Ultrasound, anesthesia, 3 days stay at the vet
He is coming home today.
Except now, the other cat seems to have a sore paw and is limping. If he does not improve by next week I will have to take him in too.
aw, bless their hearts.
I've had them for almost 6 years. The first time they have had any health problems.
le 6/27 is a repeat from yesterday's grid
yes, it is
ooh, e4 v7
just finished, any clues needed?
i dont know how to read clues
i keep confusing myself with them
do you know what it means when I say le 6/27?
no
well, different people have different ways to clue and some are more confusing to different people
ohh ok
le are the first 2 letters of the word and 6/27 indicates it's a 6 letter word worth 27 points
ohh ok
4 letters = face value of the point on the tile, 5 = face value x 2, 6 = face value x 3, etc
4 letter words are the face value of the point tiles, 5 letter words are double the face value so a word that is 5 letters & 10 points is the a word with all 1 point tiles.
oh ok
so a word that is 7/28, divide by 4, that gives you 7 so it's a 7 letter word with all 1 pt tiles.
The HELP section at the top of the board (above the chat) will give you an idea of how this all works. Lickety's Babble Clues at the bottom of the board gives you a list of words in le6/27 form.
so back to that, le6/27 means a 6 letter word with face values adding up to 9 starting with LE
good morning everyone :-)
hey nan
well I am officially stuck - 27 left
went to list at 24
but it's not helping much - only 2 words since then
wow, maybe I should not drag it out so long today then
do both ou 7's begin the same?
Yes
I thought they had to but nothing is working for the 2nd. will keep trying
I also have a vi7, what's the other one?
the ou's 1 is when your put 1 liquid into something else and the other is 1 of our 5 senses
thanks, dolly
ok - ty dolly
yw and good morn!
that senses one really doesn't make any sense!
yeah, it's weird
I don't ever use that word, wonder how many people really do
I suppose for those who are competitive, it is possible to "out" anything in comparison to others.
not undertanding the clues today :(
somedays I wonder what our language is coming to --- our world too, for that matter
The internet has really done some serious damage to the English language
ooh - found the ve 6 -- now I have to see what the def is!

BOop, you will definitely start finding more words the more you play. Also, if you look in the Friends of Babble section under Lickety's Babble Clues, click that and it will give you a list to work off of.

there's the J, 22
T 7 clue?
nice
found my p...and my last 4
yeah, I'll take that T7 clue now too. ;)
okay, starts with a four in the board, and ends in a three letter word, though it's not a compound
duh on my last F, 21!
fantastic
which T?
I see what you did there
the one right before it :)
okay the 4 is a latin plural for bones in the foot I believe
last i found...6 to go
what was the i?
the adjective of the one before it
duh, tried every letter at the end of that earlier except that
yeah, well took me until my last 7 too...so don't beat youself up...it's visually confusing
evening all
wendrie!
hey wendrie, happy Friday
well, I had the 4 that makes up most of that i, moo, so I didn't have a problem seeing that!
me either
got that early on :)
Happy Friday - and woot on getting taxes filed today (deadline is Sunday evening)
I hate doing taxes
nice!
u's done
true story, I have an accounting degree but make mr. homie do the taxes
4 to go
no accounting for that hoke
Carla - I have a bookkeeper for my clients and happily pay an accountant to do my taxes ;)
20 still here
a partnership is a balancing act though
I'll give him credit, he gets them done
still don't get it right now
roil
oops PB
no doubt applies a little of his ledger domain :)
My beloved happily signs whatever I put in front of him, including his taxes.
I unfortunately get to do the taxes here...or at least work with the accountant...still unfun gathering all the info
A,L,T,V left
yep
Thankfully in the UK most of it is done at the employer level
pita
why is it on here oml
bleugirl, it ends in a cooking implement or marijuana (T7)
last a done...three to go
I broke down and went to the list. still 17.
oh well, there are a few odd words in this
a bit of a groaner on one of the v's
last v done...2 to go
are you referring to the MTV one? I found that hours ago ;)
yeah
that was going to my clue if anyone asked :)
oh, famous hun in the grid
got it now! thanks!
*stares blankly*
is there more than one famous hun?
np, bg
oh, I misread it :)
interestingly enough, that's how hungary got it's english name
that is interesting
Though I believe they call themselves the Magyar...though I'm not up to date on that
yes, apparently they use the term: Magyarország
I have not been to Hungary myself, my wife's uncle lived there a bit
I have not either
I did go to Vienna, which isn't that far from the border
last N - stupid extra vowels
oh yeah, the english spelling
yes, never see
good tile dump in scrabble
yes, it would be
last 2 4s I found were easy
but of course
well I really didn't do a great job on the 4 letter word focus
not having much luck yet with these last 2
oh, just found my last 6
so one to go
was it an L from yesterday?
my last word is an l
no, had that one already
how many letters
the le6/27 we were talking about earlier
i still havent found that one
it was part of the alternate name for ISIS
it was?
oh, it's british slang?
yes indeed
means I raised in spanish
oh, I mean if it had an e on the end
yes, means rising in french, which I believe is where it came from in terms of the regional reference
im confused
starts with most of the blue jeans brand, ends in an insect that likes to invade kitchens and picnics
BOop do you know the term idiot ______ which means someone who seems otherwise lower intelligence who has some very amazing ability, like memory or math
rhymes with that
fw
nice, well done
fw??
WTG Moo!
when you finish a puzzle here, you are rewarded with fireworks
now i want to finish
I have 3 v's left
tx
I suspect 2 5s and a 6
you are correct!
all ve
I've just found the ve/6 - tried it expecting it to fail but it didn't
is that the MTV one?
yes
Well if you need help, let me know hoke
surely I can get the 5s
well one is trickyish
and I know the 3rd letter of the 6
the other you should get because you have something related to it already
i have 3 fives
if you have three v5s then you have them all
yeah, got the one
my 5s start with r,l,and a
and the tricky one, we've had it before.
BOop, did you check out the list we were talking about?
finally, I have received fireworks
i did but it was weird looking
and confused me
well, there's a box at the bottom that says bulk add, and if you copy everything you've entered here on your word list and paste into the bulk add box on that link, it will populate that list and show you which words you have left to find.
oh ok
and you can enter them in there as you find them here. just hit enter anywhere on that screen and it will take you to the enter box.
ok
be back sooon taking a break
pirl
hello
hi TO! I saw the news about Coach Chaney just now
Ta7 please?
ta7 a palm tree type, ends with a cooking implement
starts from the lower T
Hmmmm don't know palm trees :-(
Got it!
And Une gets it right before I was going to say ends with weed : D
Hee hee :-)
I was looking for the fu6 but I gave up because it was fu6.
do i have to build something off the car for my third corner A word?
Two at5's hursh
well only one of them at most can come from the corner, haha
and i got it! thanks
Sorry, one of them was a four
mk that makes more sense then
utterly bewildered by the U
up6
ut5
oh duh, got the 5 - saw people talking about fu6 when i came in and that should have helped
name that proper noun!
<--- this angel
Ravel ?
no, her name is Rilla :D
ravel isn't in the grid, anyway
answers to name that proper noun will always be found in the grid
It's in the grid as a phantom
well then you'd have to do name that proper phantom
or just phantom
because if it WERE in the grid you couldn't do name that anything, because it is also a verb and would count for the game
do both left Os begin the same way?
Hurshy has a big thing for her cat.
you would too if you had this incredible darling angel
Probably not, I'm not a cat person.
she's not a cat, she's an angel
she just happens to look like a cat
Okay, sure.
i have two regular cats
and then her
I have one cat who is the devil incarnate.
those are a bit more common haha
My big dogs are terrified of her :D
bottom E????
ea 4/7
ahhh thanks
I'm finished, so see y'all later
boy i am missing rather easy ones today
ttfn origami
oho got that up6 at long last
oHO both left O DO start the same way
so 7s are vi7 and 2 ou7 and...
a weird ta7/32, in case anyone else wants to know
Fw!!!
Somehow, knowing that the ta7 was a weird allowed me to monkey it. ty, hurshy!
any clues for the bottom row E word? ty.
