good morning.. looks like an easy grid again
smooth sailing so far Ru
good morning!
13 left
just c's here for me
quickie then :)
finito that was easy
just found two more Cs, I still need 3
It's a smarty pants face off
hah, found the thing I have to drink in the afternoons, I always forget it's not slang
FW!
It should be slang
when cows give birth do they decalf?
I don't drink de5 it's just warm brown water
That's tea
I don't find that it tastes any different than the real thing :)
Wow, you must like really weak coffee then
yeah, I'm fine with d5
I like strong coffee but I can make de5 as strong as regular? it tastes the same to me?
same
I don't see how there are 7 L's
i have them
oh, found 2. I always forget that sketchy plural.
missing 2
the only really odd one is la6/18
I am now missing 2 as well
For me, that is like saying near beer tastes just like regular beer
I have no idea if that's true for me. never liked regular beer, therefore never had any reason to try near beer.
did you get the hawaiian patio/deck word?
yep
not only do I love beer I also manage a brewery! I do not know what near beer is, I assume it's non alcoholic? Problem is brewing non-alcoholic beer is not really possible, it's not like removing caffeine from beans
yes, near beer is non-alcoholic
It's pretty gross mael. That is cool that you manage a brewery.
we've tried many of the processes and it just tastes like horrid barley juice
i love beers too.
why was it invented? do former alcoholics want it? i've never really heard of anyone wanting it that i know of
we can however make excellent gluten free (what would be called gluten reduced in the US) beer by using enzymes to remove the gluten!
I guess some weirdos like the taste of beer but wanted it without the alcohol
Why was decaf invented? So people who like coffee can have it without caffeine. Same with near beer, but without the alcohol. It's not just alcoholics that drink it.
they can drink something else, has always been my answer to that
I don't like the taste of beer.. and it gives me headaches
and I've never tried that gluten reduced beer because as mentioned, beer is gross to me
it's just that decaf tastes like coffee, non-alcoholic beer tastes like pee
The "I don't like beer" people always need to chime in.
yeah, I've never had decaf coffee that tasted different. I also can't tell caffeine free coke from regular.
yeah that was my impression - decaf tastes a lot more like coffee than near beer does like beer - hence my wondering what the point would be.
Next we'll get the I HATE COFFEE people.
i've never had any of any of those beverages so i wouldn't know lol
what's the name of your brewery, mael?
I wish we could make non alcoholic beer, there's obviously a market, but it just doesn't work. It would be like making beer without yeast
nope, it was the I hate soda crew that showed up 😜
Impavida, it's in Northern Italy
hence the work trips to Italy?
among other things, yeah :)
oh, I think I found the insta
what?
for mael's brewery
hokie thinks she found the instagram account of mael's brewery
ah..
i'm so tired.
*hugs*
from what bea?
of course I can't read italian
hokie abbreviates everything
but I can guess
https://www.birraimpavida.com/en/brewe\nry/
here's the website in English :)
what did I abbreviate this time? oh, instagram? that's just std internet speak, I'm sorry you aren't fluent in that, ruru.
ok, had the right one
what's the i word?
not fluent or just someone who spells things out
sorry, I think the link got borked
https://www.birraimpavida.com/en/brewe\nry/
stress and lack of good sleep
ah.. sorry bea.. is mr b home yet?
never mind, apparently it just won't copy correctly haha. Apologies to the chat
the i word is io6/36
he will be here late this afternoon
speaking of insta, I follow pen's niece on there. how long should I wait before sending her a message asking about her aunt that I don't know her name?
that is what babble does, it always puts a \n in every link you paste in
oh of course - thanks mael
what is up with pen?
she disappeared
ask right now
when's the last time anybody saw her and does anyone know her first name? you can email it to me if you don't want to post it here.
Does her niece even know you?
no. would obvi start the message with "this is going to sound weird"
And it will sound very weird.
Stalker like
I wouldn't think it was too weird, especially if it was written with no demand for a response
just concern from pen's online friends
but pen knows I follow her, she told us about her. so if her niece said "a weirdo from a game called babble" pen would know.
yeah, people understand when someone is worried about someone and doesn't have any other way to check on them
exactly
the only thing is pen would have to guess which weirdo
No, she would know right away which one
I know she was mostly lurking for a while but would pop in occasionally. I haven't seen her online for a few days.
yeah, I think so too, molly 🤣
she might be on vacation hokie
that's why I asked how long I should wait
I would rather that you find out she's okay than to start ringing the death knell
she could be kidnapped
I wouldn't jump to that with her as she is in good health
good point, ruru
Pen is one of those normal people who doesn't play Babble when she is on vacation
ha
ps - if something happens to me my family would never know to come on here or check my other email.
Pen doesn't have to try to catch Dart
Neither do you
it's a personal challenge
we could also consider the idea that it's ok for us to just not know
Yes, it's more than fine for us just to not know
yeah.. like zooz hursh
I think in any case it makes sense to wait until she's been offline for a significant amount of time
i mean if she'd been saying suicidal things and THEN disappeared, i could understand being concerned
Be warned, people. If you ever disappear, Carla will hunt your ass down.
okay
yes, I am still worried about zooz
he was one of my favorites here.. such a kind man
I am hoping that Zooz is living a healthier life that does not involve time on the computer.
yes, I never saw any sign until that day. one of my faves too.
unfortunately i think the nature of the internet means we probably have to accept not always knowing
Fa7/44…….clue please
yes.. this game isn't forever for many people
also, if anyone who does instagram wants to follow pen's niece, she posts cookie decorating videos that are so amazing and fun to watch. danyscakesbydanylind and she has 51k followers so she def. wouldn't know me from a hill of beans.
i'm looking for that one right now also
yes, I quit for years and you all never missed me
i didn't know you then but would miss you now
i babbled under a different name for awhile to avoid unpleasantness...
fa7/44 ends in Winslet
aww, that's sweet ruru
well there's no k, but I got it, thx
with good reason hurshy...
thankfully he's gone now and not bothering us any longer
Oops, I meant Blanchett
must've been while I was gone
And he was The King of Unpleasantness Ru
one hopes he's not just lurking all this time though lol
no.. he's gone
no question about it
He couldn't lurk this long and keep his mouth shut
exactly
he couldn't not make some nasty comment
who was it?
I got a card from him Hursh in the mail
The guy got at least a half dozen second chances from Dr. God. Then blew every one of them.
just to let me know he knew my address
i'll email you hokes
oh geez
yeah, he called me at work, that is what scared me
that is creepy
whaaaat? this is horrible!
I am so sorry
He was creepy and stalker-like and should have been banned years ago
omg, even creepier
he posted KJE's work number in the chat and scared the shit out of her too
and he openly admitted to being a sociopath so...
Board owners can be held liable if they are made aware of crap like that and take no action
hopefully he got arrested for stalking in a state with good anti-stalking laws
I’m sorry Molly……..I still need help with the fa7, please
I think he was beyond a sociopath hursh
looks like it's related to a certain raptor, aeb. like a maltese one.
but that's not what it means - it's sickle-shaped
like the atlanta bball team, i think, unless they moved or whatever
it means curved like a sickle
no FOOTBALL, not bball
if something isn't true it's ***se + a certain Blanchett
but their bball is hawks so it is easy to mix those two up! lol
you almost need to be scythe-ic to get that fa7
I have a half Maltese puppy, but don’t know any Maltese Raptors. sorry I am so obtuse.
there's a famous movie
the raptor is the Atlanta football team name
the maltese *
the movie.. the maltese Fa?
sent you an email hokester
thanks ruru
they had a parody of it called the Maltese Pigeon on Square One, the PBS math show i loved
Tyvm… a scythe then
LOL "the PBS math show i loved", not something I hear every day.
yes, several of us mentioned scythe/sickle
once i met Debbie Allen. i realize she is famous for other things but what did i say to her? "Weren't you on an episode of Square One one time?!"
As I said I am obtuse
she was very surprised, i don't think she got that one often
haha
is mael still here?
well, I am stuck with 21 left. 5-6-6-4 gotta get back to my to-do list I never finished yesterday. TTFN
yep
didn't you once get into it with BR and called him Obtuse and he went off the deep end? or was that Maab?
it was BR
He went off the deep end so many times
lol
and it was both hilarious and scary because there was no reason for it to be a Thing
I will never forget that one.. he totally lost his shit on that one
And yet people came on here and defended him. Unreal.
I can't say I knew he was that unhinged because it's so so alarming in hindsight
they still do.. kind of scary... apparently if you are severely ill you get a ton of latitude
same with JC. i departed from the babble FB group after he posted to let me know he knew my name. Nut I called his bluff and it ended.
he was a nasty article.
he was an awful person too.. another sociopath
and had his defenders. i am wary of them to this day.
JC and his gang were another bunch of nutbags. Inventing Nancy Boy was proof of that.
and there was another one cannot remember name, from germany. it passes.
Andrew in Drag
hmmm. but let's talk of pleasant things. TGIF.
La la la
I think it's good to talk about these things they keep reappearing some how
no plans, just getting stuff in order here. molly, take your fingers out of your ears. :D
Mikey in Berlin was the german one... ack
or i will sing to you.
YES!
namaste
mikey oh yeah.. he was a freak
bye bea take a nap
I think it is good to remind people to be careful what they post on line and who they get "chummy" with.
namaste. oh dear, this reminds me, bea, i should probably see if there is yoga at the gym today.
totally
i mean, the way BR figured out my identity was via a story i told about my boss's brother! i hadn't even thought of that as remotely being personally identifiable information. but because the brother was famous, he used that to trace it backwards.
hurshy, it's easy. trust me.
pretty freakin crazy
It seems like BR was very good at finding personal details about people. I remember he used to use Ru's real name all the time.
i once did background investigations.
for a security company.
that'd be kind of a cool job really
i love doing research of all kinds. sometimes authors post ads for researchers.
it is but it, like several of my jobs, required utmost discretion. i worked for juvenile court then DOD
oops
LOL
and can be abused if not
our lips are sealed TO
haha
:D :D :D
i remember the security officer taking some data when i went to have my clearance renewed that he had no right to record. for a long time i wondered where it was.
BR was creepy. If he was a more mobile person, he could have done some serious damage.
how did you know so much about him?
I only knew what I heard from people here
i am skeptical to the nth degree about online stuff. we are living in an age where we cannot even trust our eyes and ears anymore. i do find that very disconcerting if not downright scary.
I have a photo of him TO. It is very scary
!
He posted it on his icon
which begs the question...how...?
sorry, who is this BR being discussed -- i missed the earlier bit in the chog and tried to read it but didn't see it
sure it was him?
Positive
a very negative babbler who stalked people. he admitted to being clinically depreseed among other things.
He originally went by Babble Rabble. He had several names as he kept being banned and then let back in. I remember for a while he was O-O
Then the Byzantine
yes. not hard to figure that one out. truth always come out eventually.
the behavior.
He looked like Willie Nelson strung out on Meth getting an electric shock from a faulty cord
oh my. i sometimes look like that in the AM
Ha
methheads are scary. court experience, all kinds of drug users.
Yeah. My brother was one
they all look like hell. to see that in a teenager is just heartbreaking.
i am sorry. one of my cousins died last year from abuse. brings it home. one never thinks it can happen in your own family.
opiods have really changed that fantasy.
yeah.. and alcoholism too
Someone could write a book about this place and all the emotionally unstable people who have been here over the years.
I'm on my third chapter already molly :D
It will be a best seller for sure.

I try it every time

later
hi all
first fa5 please
hey peri
first one I have is a PT
I need the second fa5please
3rd act of a bullfight. though it reminds me of the word that goes with flora.
but I am still missing one F, so might be the one you're looking for
I also need the fa6 please
ok, i don't have an fa6
got the fa5. the fa6 is the plural
and done
oh duh. I just think of the 5 as a plural even though I just read the definition.
well done
anyone here? is the co7 a normal word? not finding it.
it's the co 6 plural
the 6 is a co 4 with extra vowels
thanks, wasn't even sure what the 6 was when I monkeyed it this morning, so I didn't try to pluralize.
looks like it is related to the drug that I kept trying different forms of
wow, my S and L were regular 4s that I just couldn't see
help on the i word please?
you sure?
what morton's does to some of their salt
wow, that last ca7, had no idea that was acceptable
I know, ridic. I think we had it recently (i.e. last 6 mos.) but I certainly forgot about it.
thank you for both those 7's... i could not see the i for the life of me... so obvious now
just missing 2 now... C and D from bottom left corner, a 5 and a 7
so... is there a d7?
found it
clue for the ca7 please
feline in appearance
back to finish...hello all...
afternoon
Pen, you're back. Carla was about to put a death warrant on you.
nice to be missed....my laptop died....just got new one set up....
such a pain
face
woops, sorry
Glad you're back Pen. We try to convince people that sometimes people check out of here and it's not because they're dead.
true....but if you are fond of someone, you worry just the same...
I agree, but it's just a word game. And sometimes people just quit playing.
true...
well I am done....had to list for the last ten....
heading out....goodnight all....
PEN1
well. that ends the speculation.
missing 2 c's from first column a 5 and a 7
co7 plural of the 6 above
there are 2 c5's
thanks Smd, found the 7 now just need the 5
found the 5, that's fireworks for me, thanks again for the help
