what an odd grid
That's one word for it.
The gerunds are fun, tho - howdy Champ!
Agree. Good morning!

:)
BBL for last 26. Good luck!

Not an easy grid.

but good day to you as well

YW
yes, only a short walk through grass and alongside some high growth. did not attach
was swatting away no see ums or some unknonw persistent pests when i saw the little bllodsucker.
oh me oh my i found the 9!
and all the 8s!
i have all the 8's what does the 9 begin with?
up
ok.. thanks
that's a pretty dumb word
I agree
this whole grid is a dumb word
I figured when the longest word was absurd, the rest of the grid would follow.
maybe people having a bondage session?
or at least showing some restraint
sorry I didn't mean to tie up the chat
Bondage for the mile high club
well, 46 left. no HOET, not even NBT. 10-16-12-7-1
talk about strapping in for a flight
A little off the cuff in-flight entertainment
hello
makes fastening the seatbelt a lot more fun
hi mael
welcome back.. vaccation?
yeah, we went to Italy to see my family for a few weeks
it was nice
how have things been stateside?
oh.. lots of Trump lunacy what else/
I was hoping for two indictments while we were away but I'll settle for one, I can wait until next week
also supreme court justice thomas is in some trouble.
today's trial decision will be interesting
oh my god what a freaking grifter that asshole is
(glad to see I'm not the only one who isn't exactly a Trump fan...)
I absolutely cannot believe that anyone is letting the Thomas thing go
i think it's his wife.
I think you're right bea
also his wife
and I sure hope there's some J6 evidence of her involvement, we've all seen her texts already...
I wonder if she drinks diet coke
(everyone missed the joke I guess)
well Dauber.. Donald Trump is the scariest thing this country has seen. I hope the Judge sanctions him today for his stupid Truth Social Posts
oh I got it, Ru. :)
current quote from the judge:
Judge Chutkan says Trump's defense is "conflating what your client needs to do to defend himself and what your client wants to do politically. Your client's defense is supposed to happen in this courtroom, not on the internet."
so the hearing today is going well
god bless her.. she doesn't take any crap.. I hope she sanctions him. freakin orange mussolini..
Judge Chutkan to Trump's defense: "He is a criminal defendant, he is going to have restrictions like every single other defendant."
god bless her is right
now if they can recuse that Judge Cannon she's overstepped her bounds already.. Trump Probably promised her a spot on the Supreme Court
or just a boatload of his donor's money...
he doesn't even have to spend a penny lol
in other news, I finally found the lone P
he's blown more than half his PAC fund on attorneys already
the PAC wants 60 million back for the election
like he's not being indicted for campaign fund violations already
unbelievable
this guy is a total sociopath and has zero boundaries about anything
.... question: Has the IRS looked at any of the money he has used from his political funds to pay his lawyers and determined that it should be included in his income for tax purposes? Just wondered.
Good question
currently the indictment is just for using campaign funds masqueraded as legal expenses to pay off a porn star, but wait a hot minute and we'll see what else is in discovery
... fingers crossed ...
that's the NY Alvin Bragg indictment for those of us keeping track at home
The only one who is not a Trump fan? On this board? Ahahahahahaha!
i do know that people change...it
it's interesting hearing the accounts of some who knew him as a young man.
?
how differently they describe him.
what were those accounts
Absolute power corrupts absolutely
of kindness, of taking some bullied under his wing. people are just a source of endless fasciation.
molly, i think that is absolutely it.
excuse spelling.
and of being a leader.
I doubt he has a single kind thought in his head. He's only concerned about himself.
given his business track record I'd be willing to bet he was a wreck before he ever got anywhere near the presidency
I don't think that is always the case. Jimmy Carter seemed like a decent guy, even when he became President. And after.
i do not want to speculate about him. i have no rabid feelings
yeah, Carter is a good guy through and through
He bankrupted a Casino? Who has ever done that?
about the man. i just do not support him. he makes me cringe'
My sister worked with Amy Carter for a while. She said Amy was very sweet.
Lets get off of he politics and get back to work
I agree.. let's drop it.
but most of the politicians and candidiates do. a poor crop
agreed, onto happier things
like finding the 9, hooray
oh yes, then, how's the weather out there?
What does the 9 start with
hot here
we got another inch of rain last night which we needed like another hole in the head
whoever brought that nasty subject up shu=uld have a time out
up
up, shephard
up9
Up with people
Thanks
still missing two 7s but I have all the other big ones, very satisfying today
not so hot here but i guess i am tired, those bethlehem kills gets steeper every year. go figure. mowing the lawn, ducked in for a rest
shephard, are you a new player? where are you from?
Profile shows join date of 2022
ah, i see. i did not think there was a profile.

I sat through those awful storms on Monday PM. the allentown tornado touched down a mile or so from us.
thank goodness for gps, so many detours going home.
I don't go out in weather like that. If I am at work, I stay at work until the storms pass.
morning all
hi moo!
hey mael, happy friday
our driveway almost washed out, thankfully we had just fixed our culvert
i was trapped while at the festival. in that my choices were try to make it home, sit in the car, or go inside. inside was the right choice. everyone evacuated from the outdoor stage were directed in. handled very well.
hey moo
btw working, probably would not have gone up there just to have fun.
hey TO
sounds unnecessarily exciting
They closed and postponed outdoor things around here on Monday.
the funny thing was, i sat out the storm in the cinema enjoying the music. couldn't even here a raindrop in there. remarkable.
the festival was dark for a little more than an hour and a half then continued. people came back after the storm. festers are a hardy group.
hey, resiliency is great :)
glad you were safe
13 left for me, they are proving elusive
down to 17, has been a tricky board so far
Hi ALL
hey mkg, happy friday
I have no 7s or 8s yet. So any stats and clues welcome. Ty
Yes tough board.
well there's an ending that covers those ones off
except for one
one 7 that is
maybe two 7s...I have one 7 to go :)
Huh? Not understanding the endings.
Oh got it. I see the ending now. Ty
7s and 8s mostly end with gerund
all the 7s, 8s and 9 have the same ending...except at least one 7 which is a 6/7 combo
And got a seven. Ty
How about the 8s? Not seeing any so far.
There are 3
all the 8s have the same ending
Oh just got one. Ty
Ty
Well the 9 is up and it must be before a seven. Hmmm
well it's definitely after a 6
Just got the 9: never heard of it.
.... what you do to put the pages in a book
I need a clue for the N word bottom row N please. Ty

no
um4
ty
hey look, one of hokie's acronyms is here: GATBO
ty'
Not an english word that um. But ok.
There are a lot of non-English words allowed in Babble.
well based on looking it up, it's as english as most words... just not one we use nowadays. but it doesn't come from like Swahili or anything, it's a normal route of Latin through the romance languages to English
listed to finish. mostly weird. only ones i felt bad about missing were the rockin' birdies
help with mi8 please
What you MIGHT be doing in college
The lower course of study
Any clues for pi5/16 or ob6/27? I'm so stumped. :/
there is no ob6
oh never mind
haven't got it yet apparently :)
take the 4, and turn it into a belief system
ob6 is like a religion to Japanese sashes
the 5 would be like the action for doing a certain mathematical formula
pi5..3.14...add gerund
ga 6 please?
fo 5/20, pls
... sounds like the Swiss melted cheese meal ... ... it's actually a ballet term for which I paid for my daughters classes for 15 years ... I should have got it ... oh well ... getting old
OK, those are CRAZY. Thank you, Molly and oolingwa!
ga 6 please?
... drop the first letter from an expression of surprise and amazement ... and add what I think is the robot ending
great clue, stupid word
ty dos
is the ob 6 equally stupid?
.. some would say so ... start with the Japanese belt and add the ending for a political or religious belief system
a belief in belts? something for those hipless skinny people I guess!
That is a great clue Nan. I neverwould have gotten that one without your clue!!
... if you dig through the thesaurus you get an alternate meaning for the belt world ... which involves sorcery from the Caribbean
si 7 please (last one)?
Committing crimes against God
... oh well ... boss would like salmon for dinner which involves me walking down to the grocery store ... ... must be off ... ....
Sorry! Doseffing gave that great clue! My apologies to Dosef!
oops - have that one, ty Molly - looking for the first one
nm - found it - another robot
anyone want clues before I leave?
