8:24 am

thanks for keeping us abreast of basque

8:25 am

sometimes it's best to keep clues close to your chest

8:29 am

found an 8, alas outerwear rather than underwear

8:39 am

hilariously, my last word was ti6/21, Ru

8:41 am

Sun's out, puns out

what'd I miss?

9:01 am

someone must have posted the 8 in the chat

oh

phantom outlet

and eleven

9:04 am

someone blew out the chat

9:06 am

OK I want "sun's out, puns out" on a t-shirt

well, I am struggling with both e's I have encountered so far

I can definitely make a t-shirt that says that

9:08 am

that's where i saw it LA.

9:08 am

oh cool ready made :)

I've only ever seen sun's out guns out on sleeveless shirts

9:08 am

i did get my sister a "sun's out, tums out" t-shirt with a fat cat

9:09 am

Those t-shirts are all over Amazon

one who flashes their butt is a no go

also a cow is a no go

well, had to see the a4 and then I knew the e4 was there

5th col gray!

9:14 am

good for you!

it was tough for sure 🤣

also, intel still not a word, don't try it

9:17 am

Where there is the wager, so there is the volcano...where there is saliva, so there is gratuities.

9:17 am

A proverb done in needlepoint that hangs in the PB

I know, it's just I can't see the volcano until I see the wager a lot of times.

also takes me a while to see both no motion and to bury

duh, another e babblet there I couldn't see

well, HOET and 30 left. 7-10-6-4-3 off to try the other games

9:23 am

tummy rumbles. must eat.

9:23 am

bye carla, bea

9:39 am

anyone besides me getting more warnings than usual about Babble being an insecure site> My security keeps wanting to stop me from getting here. Certificate problem? No idea what that is.

9:41 am

maybe some nefarious lowlife hackers are working behind the scenes here? I worry.

9:41 am

no more than normal. i don't believe dr g keeps his security certificate up to date. the worst that could happen is someone gets your password to this site

the biggest issue is, don't use your password for this site anywhere else. otherwise I don't think it's a problem.

notice it doesn't have https like say, your bank website does. that means it's not secure like your bank site is. that's why your security program is saying that.

hmm, isn't there a t word similar to spanish thirty? having trouble remembering the exact spelling.

9:58 am

The number after 9 and two vowels is kind of similar

9:59 am

The security problem here is just what was stated. Don't use a password here that you use anywhere secure.

just looked, I think the one I was thinking trientes. spanish 30 is treinte IIRC.

and I did not have that babblet, thanks

9:59 am

And there is the possibility that your email could get hacked if you use the same password here and there.

10:07 am

last T just popped out at me when I came back. regular word.

10:13 am

well, last T on top row. still need 3 from each of the others

10:16 am

phantom mature

10:17 am

and manure 💩

10:17 am

my last t from the top was ti6/21, which is what a wearer of the sun's out guns out shirt might call himself

10:18 am

mine was sometimes a teenaged mutant ninja

10:18 am

and yes, good callback

10:18 am

ah

10:19 am

finding this M the hardest

10:19 am

absolutely

10:20 am

o7.32

10:20 am

mo7.32

10:20 am

I do have one of those

10:21 am

just found 2 almost identical mo5, one a very regular word

10:21 am

ma8

10:21 am

rbud To your earlier comment. Yes, Babble is somewhat insecure. I had a friend who had their info stolen a few years back I guess through a hack or intercepting data. Fortunately, the email address used was only for this site so no real damage done.

10:21 am

ok, I have no 8s so well look at that.

10:22 am

*will

10:22 am

is this ma8 a word I'm likely to have ever seen, bea?

10:23 am

I guess the warnings have just become more frequent - doesn't seem like it used to bug me to approve access nearly as often as it has recently. Every few days instead of every few weeks.

10:23 am

did you get a new security suite or anything?

10:24 am

or upgraded your browser

10:24 am

I never get any warnings for here, it just shows Not Secure in my browser.

10:24 am

Holy cow...got the te8 on just a wild guess...

10:24 am

No, not lately, but it upgrades itself all the time, as does the browser. but thanks, all, I just changed my password again, as a precaution.

10:25 am

(and yeah, I too only just get the broken padlock in the browser; no other warnings)

10:25 am

ma8 is a small place to hang stockings

10:26 am

i have to wear a compression sock. getting into that thing is a real workout. i'm so glad i don't wear pantyhose anymore.

10:30 am

also, I have posted this before, but this website has a 12 character max password but no real warnings about it. so if you make it longer than that and then try to enter that later it will say invalid.

10:30 am

*unless dr. god added a warning

10:32 am

I don't have the memory for passwords that long. And pantyhose? Ew. I wear regular stockings, for formal occasions.

10:33 am

well I use a password creator. and what does regular stockings mean vs pantyhose?

10:34 am

You don't know the difference between stockings and pantyhose?

10:35 am

I've only ever lived in a pantyhose world. didn't realize stockings from the 40s still existed.

10:36 am

from a quick google it appears they are like thigh highs?

10:38 am

ok, dauber...any help on that te8?

10:38 am

do you know how the gingerbread man makes his bed?

10:38 am

no, how does the gingerbread man make his bed?

10:38 am

te8.55

10:39 am

very carefully?

10:39 am

oh, I thought it was a joke

10:39 am

10:39 am

lol

10:39 am

oh, it was

10:39 am

funny

10:39 am

banking that one for the niece and nephew visit

10:40 am

the te8 ends with the suffix for surgery

10:41 am

uhhh

10:41 am

oh, now I rem.

10:42 am

tonisllec????

10:42 am

like if you were having all your fingers stitched

10:42 am

The suffix means to cut

10:42 am

btw - just thought about MLFAN

10:43 am

I actually was going to have that done with my biceps tendon but then they got in there are realized I had frozen shoulder.

10:44 am

i think of her everytime we have nisi and issei

10:45 am

RIP

10:45 am

Carla, why do you think she is dead?

10:46 am

just had a bad feeling when she disappeared

10:46 am

ftr, I think everyone is dead when they disappear without saying they are taking a break

10:47 am

I'm not dead (I hope!)...just fw. :)

10:47 am

congrats!

10:47 am

well done!

10:47 am

nice work, dauber

10:48 am

19 left here. 5-5-4-4-1 RR L TTT E T MMM NN iii AAA

10:48 am

Wow. People quit playing word games all the time. That doesn't mean they died.

10:48 am

I know bea thinks the same as I do re: MLFAN

10:49 am

ooh, found an A

10:50 am

i think the same. i jsut can't see her disappearing. babble meant a lot to her.

10:50 am

In my world, it's bad juju to think of someone as dead when you don't know for sure they are. So I will keep hoping she either lost her internet connection or quit playing.

10:51 am

found another A

10:52 am

clue for ti7?

10:52 am

will look

10:52 am

Nef was still alive last month.

10:53 am

and moo was still alive, but like bea said, I think MLFAN enjoyed this site keeping her busy daily.

10:54 am

I got nothing on the ti7

10:54 am

and hey ori

10:55 am

Hi hokie

10:56 am

Hi Ori, Une is still alive too. 😊

10:56 am

good, haven't seen her in a bit

10:56 am

ti7 - miss turner + cat sound

10:57 am

you're telling me there's a cat sound in here?

10:58 am

That isn't a cat sound spelling I have ever seen

10:58 am

well, somehow got that and an m that isn't a cat sound but is a grimace

10:58 am

thanks, bea

10:58 am

oh, the t is a bird

10:59 am

It would be a cat sound with an i in it and a grimace with an e on the end

11:00 am

yes, just want to add the bs cat sound sp

11:00 am

there are so many enable accepted cat sounds

11:00 am

ok, update: RR L TTT E MM NN i A

11:00 am

Oops, cat sound with an ia in it

11:00 am

I know, it's ridiculous

11:01 am

how about en7?

11:01 am

yep, will look, thx

11:01 am

kept wanting entitle

11:03 am

how many points?

11:04 am

36

11:04 am

its an alt spelling of infatuation

11:05 am

gracias

11:05 am

and before you guess, that is not my missing A

11:06 am

MLF was kidnapped by a mexican drug cartel... they're keeping her under wraps

11:06 am

hmm, ruru's theory seems worse than death

11:07 am

namaste

11:07 am

bye bea!

11:07 am

I reckon I'm going to have to list for these last 12.

11:08 am

MLF was really an incarcerated 60-year-old pedophile who finally got parole.

11:08 am

should look for my 3 4's first

11:09 am

hmm, now that's an interesting theory

11:09 am

well, of course my missing A was a 4.

11:14 am

I'm sticking with the mexican cartel.. she went from pork and beans to rice and beans

11:15 am

well, down to 9 now. 1-2-3-2-1 so nice and palindromic

11:15 am

MLF always had a hard time with this game. Maybe she found something easier and more enjoyable for her.

11:18 am

ooh, just saw a T6

11:18 am

messed up my palindrome

11:18 am

but I think she enjoyed the community she had here

11:22 am

ok, list not helping yet. should I be seeing this IN8?

11:27 am

don't forget the dumb 7 that goes with it. unless you are talking about a different dumb 8.

12:11 pm

was an i7

12:11 pm

er i8

12:13 pm

All the 8's are dumb

12:13 pm

yeah, that one didn't have a def so I didn't know if it was dumb or I was dumb

12:16 pm

and yeah, I was talking about a different one

12:20 pm

afternoon all! 2 of the 3 et4s that I just automatically type every day there is an E adjacent to a T hit in today's grid :-)

12:21 pm

lol

12:25 pm

you're saying there are 3 you type every time, or that there are 3 today and two of them are ones you type every time?

12:26 pm

well 11 to go...have to do stuff 1-2-3-3-2

12:29 pm

3 I type every time. today, only etas was not found in the puzzle

12:29 pm

ok cool cause i was NOT finding a third et4 here today

12:34 pm

got some nice christmassy words today, no4 and an6...

12:36 pm

ugh, having much trouble with the Ms

12:37 pm

aha, seeing that there was an 8 helped me get that and two 6s

12:39 pm

so there are two in8s?

12:43 pm

No just one

12:47 pm

hi all. ne5/20 please

12:52 pm

ti 7/36, pls

12:58 pm

peri you've got a lot of ne5/20 asking for a clue for that :-)

1:02 pm

that is ne5/16. I need ne5/20 please

1:03 pm

rhymes with a word that you mind associate with frequencies

1:04 pm

I found it. rhymes with last

1:04 pm

mind-might

1:04 pm

I found it

1:04 pm

rhymes with last name of Lucy's neighbors on the tv show

1:13 pm

They actually had a sign on I Love Lucy that said Ne5 to Me5

ne5 is a card game and I kept seeing the alt sp yesterday(?) and then didn't see it here until the list.

and we used to play it camping but I can't rem. what my camping friend called it

1:26 pm

Competitive Solitaire? Never thought of that as a competitive game.

finally found it - Pounce is what she called it, and yes, it's pretty much solitaire against others as fast as you can.

it's fun

1:48 pm

sorry I steered you wrong, peri

ah, moo got close to my palindrome

2:55 pm

rehi

2:57 pm

rehi from me also

2:58 pm

ok so only 2 of the 8s have been mentioned then, i think.

3:00 pm

no wait, finally found the third mentioned

3:01 pm

of course finding the actual word is another matter

3:02 pm

aHA found the clue too, now i got it

phantom: trout

3:21 pm

Absolutely @hurshy - keep trying to put that in.

3:25 pm

Phantom for me is also atom

3:35 pm

both those words are there for dyslexics

3:43 pm

Why "@" hurshy?

3:43 pm

actually dyslexic babble would be pretty fun if you think about it

3:43 pm

cause in various social media programs you can tag people by doing @ first, probably

3:43 pm

WE can call it Elbbab

3:44 pm

Ah yes, that's why hurshy - didn't realise it wasn't used here. Sorry MollyL that's why I did it so hurshy realised it was to them.

3:44 pm

I used @ for at.

3:44 pm

yeah it doesn't make it show up any special way for the person mentioned, so, we do not bother

3:45 pm

Cool, no worries. You live and learn!

3:47 pm

i don't see how two of my last 3 words can be 4s and yet be so UNFINDABLE

3:48 pm

phew, got ONE of them

3:49 pm

got the other!

3:50 pm

ok, down to one T5, from the top T!

I think it can only be one of 2 alt sp

3:52 pm

but i have two alt sp, both ti5

3:53 pm

maybe it is tr or tu ???

ok, thought those were the only 5s from there but will look again

tr5 words were never spoken

3:53 pm

ahhhhh thanks

in that it is a tr or tu

4:03 pm

yes

4:08 pm

Hah, I just made a typo for a word I was entering and accidentally got another one.
