ntpn - movie with nicolas cage that i 'surprised' my husband by taking him to, only to find out it wasn't the one he wanted to see (the right one being a jodi foster flick about outer space)
I liked that jodie foster movie
lol. I have no idea.
yeah, that was a good one, can't remember what it's called either.
so not contact :)
conair!
thanks for the hint, mael
mael got it. well not the question, but it nonetheless
maybe con air
oh right, Con Air!
ding ding! carla wins a bashed up dirty stuffed bunny!
monkay....shock the monkay....
conair is curling irons and hair dryers 😜
yes, and steve buschemi (sp?) as a child predator
now that song is in my head, harry
I have to admit I tried conair earlier, hoping it was some sort of accepted portmanteau
hmmm, a predator of children
sounds like a good movie - I love steve buscemi
it's a nicolas cage movie, harry - set the bar at the appropriate height (although, contrary to public opinion, i don't mind him)
he's ok ... I liked raising arizona
raising arizona is one of my top 5
What is it with you people and the word portmanteu?
right on carla
portmanteau is a great word
it's a little early for nan, she always pipes in about why are we talking about a suitcase
That is one of it's meanings
so...this bottom H, am I looking for HY? not finding anything
alt spelling of the pipe
Both those words use both H's
thanks
and the dance
not hula
It is an Israeli dance
is the 5 or the 6 the alt sp? I would consider the 5 alt and the 6 regular.
I agree carla
though if there are two things, aren't both alternatives?
good point
I think if you are using one, you don't really care how it's spelled
hah!
deep thoughts by harryhood
what is the stat on the dance?
hoet!
nice
Although in the case of "alternative spelling" it means lesser used
ho4/5 or 5/14
has anybody ntpn'd the gloomy donkey yet?
eeyore :)
eyeore? eyore?
eeyore

also, mayor is in there 😜
yes it is indeed
helped me get half on that M
phantom: mocha
when I was a kid I used to get confused because there was a mayor koch, but also a golda meir, and I thought it was the same word.
Like anyone cares about posting words in the grid anymore
I thought meir was pronounced more like my-ear
there's also another fictional land, specifically a mine :)
may-ear
no matter what NPR says.
moria

just checked yesterday's bee - I missed boron, borzoi, and noob. I usually get noob there.
also, I don't think you were stuck at those numbers
I got those three
missed bonobo and robing
I only know bonobo from missing it at the bee, so a very accomplished feeling when I got it yesterday.
nice
noob and bonobo! ahhh
i wouldn't have thought noob would count
my foot just found an errant straight pin in the carpet. that was worse than a lego.
that's the "beauty" of the editor, sam. he includes whatever he wants.

he allows innie? I'm always bothered here when innie and outie are not allowed.
he does
only dictionary that I know that does

remarkably tictoc doesn't work there
there is a bingo today, which means at least one from every letter.

nope
don't think there was yesterday for instance
yes there was
no, definitely not
i found it
btw, otic not taken there
bronzing
yeah, there was no z yesterday
a word starting with each letter
ohhh i keep thinking you mean a pangram when you say a bingo
that's why I said what it means when I mentioned it 😜
this grid here today is much nicer
21 to go
but the way you said it, i misinterpreted
10 left here, 10 left there, lol

i thought maybe i had one with "tomtom", you know, little drum
33 words for me
thanks, that gave me one
apparently they don't allow motmot either (it's a bird)
I think the one I just got from hursh is a bird
I suspect I know which one, and yes
i think i need whatever that is lol
coition not accepted
33 words but only 115 pts
34 and 125
35 and 132 :)
35 and 141...suddenly finding longer words
18 left here

apparently so
although one more word each and we could be tied
37 and 150
36 and 136 lol
well, you just need to find a 14 letter word :)

milliton = one pound

Are you guys talking about the New York Times Spelling Bee? Because the one I looked at had a z and the word bronzing.
tooition - payment for clown college
that was yesterday's
I finally made genius. Think of a big dance that a Debutante would go to.
Yes, and a comment was made that there was no z yesterday?
yes, molly, but, what they were saying is that to get "bingo" you have to find at least one word that begins with each letter, and there was no word starting with Z
no, the comment was there was no bingo yesterday because no words started with z
everybody got the bird in the bee today? :)
Oh, okay. Hard to keep up with you all.
how many points today hoke?
oh yeah, I forgot he is anti-communion by not allowing intinction.
171 points today
it's a distinction they make
ta
ooh ooh i'm up to 38 words

6-5-3
i still find the whole middle letter thing weird. i don't like it when i think of other words that are there but do not use the T
yeah, that got me a lot early
still 23 here and 33 there and a trivia question I'm guessing on at my other place. too much going on.

3 artists inducted into Rock & Roll, Country, & Gospel halls of fame

✅
elvis took me way too long. should've been first guess
dolly parton?
there was just a thing about her getting into rock& roll and at first she turned it down
Johnny Cash?
yes, but I wasn't as sure about that since I know she was nominated for R&R this year but she declined. but the guy asking said it was in the answer.
did johnny cash do gospel??
and moo with the 3rd
oh, I'm sure he did
well, she changed her mind after hearing from people about why they thought she should be in it
we are a good trivia team lol!

I do think my new hood has a monthly trivia night at the clubhouse, but seems like you have to register and it fills up fast.
well there's several chains of pub trivia, you can check their websites
Ty moo.. got it.

I've played several of them, liked Geeks who Drink's format the best, but each has its own thing going
yeah, I'm flying to Miami in a couple of weeks...should be "fun"
hey, found a word here
think I will focus on 4s
yeah, I'm down to 9 now
2-5-2
8-10-3-1
found a 5
Can someone help? My mrs has an account but can't log on as she's bought a new laptop. She contacted Babble earlier today for an email reminder for her account info but hasn't heard anything back
hmm, I don't know if anyone has heard from Dr. God lately but last time I emailed he replied same day. it is still morning for him, but you'd think that would be automated reply for password help.
did she check her junk mail? or could she have used the wrong email address?
I mentioned this recently, there is a password issue that I ran into where I was creating passwords that were too long and then I couldn't see that it was cutting them off, so maybe have her change to like a 5 character one.
We're in UK and I think Dr God is Australia - think it would have been about 730pm Melbourne time. She's checked junk mail etc
no, I think he's in US central time zone, which is what the chat time is
it takes a while now, this is a legacy game.
ok i'll pass your messages on to her and wait a few days and if no luck I'll try contacting Babble myself
She can just create a new account.
but I think she won't be able to change password until she gets a link to do so
She doesn't have to change a password if she creates a new account.
I guess if you don't care about your stats or anything you could
Dr God can fix that later. BR used to log in as other identities all the time and his ranking never changed.
I keep hearing about this BR, what does that stand for?
BabbleRabble
oh yeah, I remember him
ok, found some words. 3-6-2-1 left. A R MM K Y MM A CCC. guess I will go for a walk. TTFN.
5724 SYLA
i went to the list with 10 left and some of them were quite weird

A M K MM CCC
ar4/8 was the A i missed
ka5/18 maybe for your K
yeah, me too apparently
7 to go
6 to go, 4s complete
found a 5
Worzel, I had the same issue. I used to play a lot under an old email address and I emailed Dr. God but didn't hear back in order to recover my old name and account. I just created a new one.
good morning everyone -- housework and gardening done for the day :)

hi all. This is tough grid, but not as bad as yesterday's, which I never even finished.
Yesterday's grid seemed universally hated
hi all. help with O in 2n column please
thumbs up
ty Harry
yw!
I think the day before yesterdays grid was one of the worst ever. I did not finish it. Yesterday's was tough but I managed to finish.
This one is a tough one too
I can't recall past yesterday. FIFO
FIFO?
First in, first out. It is an inventory system
first in, first out. it's a queue. things go into my memory, then other things enter and push the old stuff out.
ok
I am listing my last 22.
58 left here and slowing down
help with mo7 please
More like the orb in the night sky
ty Molly
wow I was missing some easy words.
have a fund day all!
fun day that is.
like your IRA harry?
rehi. thanks for the 7. I don't know if I'm more annoyed that it's a word or that I didn't see/try it.
hi carla
I'm trying to get a few words into Babble while waiting for my boss to email me something. It's high priority, but he's taking his time, so I'm wondering if I can finish this grid first.
ha
11 left. wondering if I can find the 3 fours before listing or not.
nice. I listed when I had about 30 left
I remember hurshy said there were some weird words in her last 10, so I should prob just list
I've never heard of most of the K words.
I have 6 but made up maybe 4
well, I am ashamed for missing the fabric
fabric?
ra5
oh look at that. I missed it too.
I'm stuck on the KA5,18 right now
kinda like the toy you hum
or you can take an australian animal and remove the ang
lol, I thought the seafaring A word was merely a phantom
now 2 6's left
I have a 5 and a 6 left....both M's although on different tiles
I have M6 and C6 left
ty for the K5
well I know what the c is :)
just got it
now back to that M6.
the M6 is just crazy
Riotous
LOL, good to know
violent chaos
oh, these are hints
aha
or unless you want the mo6 which you can make a sweater out of
but how did you all know I wasn't missing the M6 from the upper?
mohair
now surely moo will find his
whether he wanted to or not
I had that one
yeah, but both were clued
ah
was IMing with someone
Funny how those things get missed
I bet I know which 5 you need
maybe
I'm telling you molly, they get inserted in after others so they're easy to miss
yeah, found the 6...makes me think about car insurance
well, now that you mention it, moo...
ooh, just found 2 more bee words, still way behind moo and hurshy
one to go :)
fw
well done
damn, only 9 words to go and boss wants me to work. see yall later
bye joy. and how dare he/she
Just changed PCs. Forgotten how to download the Pro version (if that what it is called!)
Iof Babble.
I think if you clink the Lickety's Babble Clues under the stats you can find info on that page
I think it is called Babble Expert. I don't use. But it was created by Lickety.
OK, dealt with priority work matter, and I have 15 minutes until a meeting starts. Can I find the last 9 words in that time?
you can do it!
maybe if you use the list
yeh, I listed about 20 words ago.
Is the MY word really weird, or I am just not seeing it?
I think it's maybe cancer or tumor
it is, thank you Carla
got it tx
FW for me! And with 5 minutes to spare!
woot
yes, I got cancer at the end
that was my guess
good guess
Yay Joy!
watching the NZ show - they just found a did body
that's not too flash eh?
oh my.
had to google that one
much more enjoyable grid than yesterday's
I guess I agree with that, but still not one of my faves
i’m finding today’s less scrutable.
a lot of 4s today
can't find my final two words on bee
yes, proportionally higher than usual
back again to find more words 35 left
I still have 6 so probably will settle on genius
yeah
hey peri, you can do it
I sure am trying
just remember, it's all downhill from here...which you can interpret either way
I currently live at the bottom of a hill. Only way to go is up from here.
my niece and her husband live at the top of a hill and it is very dificult for me to park on their street, ergo they come to me for visits
The neighborhood i grew up had the three hills the whole town used to teach youngsters how to use a clutch with minimal rollback on steep hills, one at a traffic light.
so steep, you cannot see the other side of the road from stopped on the hill.
I would not like that
HO 5/14?
