12:40 am

Ok, now I can go to sleep for real. I got it too!

I'm sure I'll feel properly stupid when I finally see what the Alaskan clue was, especially if it relates to the oilpatch (been there done that).

12:41 am

sw 5 22, i just got it and i never heard of it before

1:39 am

Griff you are little stuck on the Kap tonite.... are you a bit cold.... or keeing the brain cells warm LOL

1:39 am

Probably the former, the snow is creeping down the mountains pretty quickly now and we got a dusting on the street tonight on my way home, but just barely. I can't believe we got to the end of October without snow.

1:40 am

I like the snow.... if only it would not go on the roads... when I was up north snowy roads were not a problem but down here it is stay at home time...

1:41 am

it's 32 degrees in northeast ohio

1:42 am

OK 5/20 just for griff

1:47 am

blabbel - 34 here in Oberlin. where you?

1:50 am

So what's the deal with the white 5 at the bottom of the K? I read the Babble rules, and did not see anything about it.

1:51 am

boat..... the grid tiles had to be changed because of hasbro request.... it was done two nights ago....

boatierra - the 5 is the point value of the K, just like in scrabble.

1:52 am

boatierra -- the tiles were recently redesigned; you may have to empty your cache or refresh a few times to get a matching set of tiles. They all should look like your K.

1:53 am

Sorry I drifted away again, like the snow. Thanks for the ok 5/20 Blaze!

1:53 am

It is so fitting for tonites grid... for yoou Griff

1:54 am

Yeah, Blaze, the ok5 is a great word. I love your pumpkins icon.

1:55 am

hello Mab.... how are you...??

1:55 am

Hmm, but no HANDYKAP or ANDYKAP okay I'll put a kap on it

1:58 am

Trying to do this with a migraine, Blaze. I need to go to bed and let it pass, but a new babble is hard to tear oneself away from.

1:58 am

:((( oh, migraines are awful - I've been lucky not to have had one in almost a year. So sorry.

1:59 am

Mab best to take yourself to bed.... the babble will still be here.... the computer screen will do you no favors with a migraine....

2:03 am

The K on my board is the only one with a white letter at the bottom. Its the first time I've seen this. And every time I refresh it comes up the same way. No biggie. Just interesting to note. Thanks for the info.

2:03 am

It's a waxing and waning thing, this headache, but you're right, will stop staring at this very soon. Griffums, I don't get these very often. If I take Excedrin right away I can sometimes escape it.

2:03 am

mabs - look after yourself - migraines are nasty beasts - feel better tomorrow :)

2:04 am

Mab have you tried a cold pack on the back of your neck...??

2:04 am

Me too - a big dose of excedrin ahead, but I get a clear aura so I know it's coming. Hey I just found today's fish in the puzzle!

2:04 am

Good night, all -- 35 to go.

2:05 am

Fish word letter please Griff (wink)

2:06 am

It starts with an H and it has no kap!

2:06 am

well, that's half way now & time to get everyone up & ready for the day - uuugh, groaning moaning teenagers! good luck all & maybe see you later :)

2:06 am

'night nan -

2:07 am

You're all so sweet, thank you. It will go away soon and yes, thanks, Blaze I do have ice.

2:08 am

I get migraines all the time. This is what I do to help get rid of it: proper hydration (dehydration can cause a migraine), take an OTC painkiller, go to the bathroom (backed up bowls can cause a migraine), start sniffing essential oil of spearmint, and hit the hay if I can. In aromatherapy, the mint family is well known to help reduce headache/migraine pain. I prefer spearmint. But whatever works for you, works for you. Good luck :)

2:10 am

boat.... the mints are great I also use lavender...and rescue remedy for everything including migraines

2:11 am

Blaze - Ya, laverder is great to help go to sleep. I haven't tried Rescue Remedy for migraines, but always something to consider.

2:12 am

Rescue remedy on the temple and back of neck....

2:15 am

I attended massage therapy school a few years ago, and focused on aromatherapy. Personally I place the spearmint oil neat on my occipital ridge, and a bit on both temples. If I do it just right, the mild burning sensation on my OR feels really good. But, as my disclaimer, I would never, ever advise to anyone to place spearmint oil neat on their skin. If done improperly, it can seriously burn.

2:16 am

thank you boaterra

2:22 am

2:59 am

And no pinup either.

3:03 am

Hi Ho Hum.

3:04 am

Morning Sprite, glad you are feeling a bit better.

3:05 am

Hunting for that Ti6, Blaze, I want to laugh! I was turned down by 'mulan' too... doesn't babble know disney?

3:07 am

who knew the ti6 was even a word! but I guess thats babble for you.

3:07 am

i've been looking for ti6 now for ages. i din't care how funny it is , im not laughing. help!!!!!

3:08 am

3:09 am

ti6 split into 2 words is a small bird and another word for a sheep

3:09 am

Ho Hum that is a funny word for sheep...

3:10 am

yUP :)

3:11 am

got it thanks, but i don't get the sheep reference

3:12 am

Found it! To move in a lively, capering manner; prance. But it sounds like what they must have said to the pinups that are not in this grid.

3:14 am

last 3 letters another word for a male sheep

3:18 am

Now that you are laughing I am off to bed.... nitey nite all.

3:18 am

Bye, I must be off too.

3:18 am

Our smiles will accompany you to your sleeping parlor, my dear ;) Sleep well and thanks.

3:19 am

yes, I'm done! Anyone need a clue?

3:20 am

Congrats! I still need almost 100 words, so can't ask for clues yet, lol.

3:22 am

Bedtime. Bye ya'll.

3:22 am

Ethie, these hateful K's!!!!!

3:26 am

I am afraid Ethie is gone already, granadan. I still need 7 more Ks. Perhaps we can compare our lists?

3:31 am

Make that 6. This is what I have so far: ka 4 8 ka 5 18 ka 4 10 ke 4 10 ke 4 8 kh 4 9 kh 5 20 kn 4 9 kn 4 8 kn 5 18 kn 4 9 ko 4 8 ko 5 18 ko 4 10

3:33 am

morning sprite, there's a ke5/24, it's a fibre

3:33 am

you are missing another ka4/8 and 5/10 and a kn5/20 not sure about the others

sprite, a clue for (a) ka 4/8 - plural of "know" or "understand"

3:34 am

You guys are the greatest. Ks are never my strong suit.

wait scratch that. i totally misread your message :P

3:35 am

Thanks anyway, turtle :) Nice of you to help.

oh I see. there are two ke 4/8's. my clue was for the first one

blah :P

3:39 am

I would be grateful for a shove in the right direction for the 2nd Ka combo. I have the alt. spelling for "Scot. and Irish Eng.rent paid in kind, esp. a percentage of a farm crop" one.

3:39 am

got all the k's, there are 2x ka5/18

3:41 am

Do Ko words really exist???? I have been trying every combination I can think of and have not gotten one of the three yet! Can anyone help?

3:41 am

have you got the ka that's a subatomic particle sprite?

3:41 am

nm, found it right after asking. Asking helps :)

3:43 am

ko4/ko5, is a Zen story apparently

3:43 am

dalmatian: two are words from the buddhism, sing. and pl. for a very short story that contains an unsolvable riddle. The other one is a hebrew letter.

3:44 am

Can I have a clue for the kn5/20 please

3:44 am

Only if you go down on them and beg, HoHum :)

3:44 am

K's are making me Krazy - I have ka x 5 ke x 3 kh x 3 kn x 5 ko x 3 What one am I missing?

3:45 am

I would but I have that already as a 5/18 ?!

3:45 am

Hm, I see you are right. I don't have a Kn5/20 yet, only a Kh5/20. Sorry!

3:46 am

NP appreciate the throught anyway

3:46 am

Dianne, ke4/10, ke5/24, ke4/8 x2

3:47 am

doh - got it,plural of the kn4/9

kn 5/20 - To break or chip (stone) with sharp blows, as in shaping flint or obsidian into tools.

apparently it's chiefly british

3:48 am

Sprite - thanks a million! I cannot believe how smart all the folks that Babble are!!!!!

3:49 am

lol Ho Hum, bet you did the same as I: only seeing that one place for the 4th letter and not realising you could go another way and make it plural :)

3:49 am

ferrari - got that last K thanks to your help :)

3:50 am

yw, dalmatian! The longer you play, the more absolutely useless but very interesting words you get to know ;)

3:51 am

Exactly Sprite!!!! oh well it's all part of the fun LOL

3:51 am

hello all :) yes, sprite, but sadly I forget the words by the next day!

3:52 am

Chessy - glad to know there is someone else kust like me out there - I see them one day and then have to hunt for them again the next!

3:53 am

Chessy, I refuse to believe you have forgotten 'ywis', 'crms', 'hisn' or any of the 'naoi-anoa-etui' family!

3:54 am

True sprite, not to mention 'haen' and 'pfui' !

3:55 am

Oh yeah, those nasty ones too :)

3:55 am

One I really hate: haar. It's such a dutch word (for hair) and it doesn't look even remotely english.

4:01 am

121 so far but have to go to a meeting, Bye for now.

4:02 am

At least you have some words to use in that meeting, Ho Hum! ;) See you later.

4:02 am

not to mention 'neuk' eh sprite, lol

4:03 am

Yeah, one of the rudest words in dutch indeed, Chessy :)

4:03 am

too bad babble doesn't take German words. This one's full of 'em!

4:04 am

Frustrating, right amanda? ;) I know the feeling.

4:08 am

I need just one more word and I will be through. It is probably right in front of my face. But, I cannot see it. Please, please a hint for the first Pa 4/6.

4:09 am

dalmation, my first Pa4/6 is: elongated, often segmented appendage usually found near the mouth in invertebrate organisms such as mollusks, crustaceans, and insects, the functions of which include sensation, locomotion, and feeding. (Well, you asked.)

4:11 am

No wonderI cannot find the darn thing! At least it is not too easy! I am watching a movie called Papi and I wanted to use that word!!!!

4:11 am

Perhaps easier: a tropical tree with another last letter.

4:11 am

dalmation haveyou got the appendage? it's almost same as pu4/7

4:12 am

dalmation - my 1st Pa4/6 sounds like a shortened form of "heart pa--------s" - beating very fast.

4:13 am

Sprite and Ferrari - thank you so much!!!! I got it from the tropical tree. I have finished and will be able to get a great nights sleep - but better yet can get some things done tomorrow!!!! Thank you again!

4:13 am

WTG dalmatian! Sleep well and enjoy your day tomorrow :)

4:14 am

Night all..........

4:14 am

3 cheers for dal

4:16 am

Good Morning all! Its my second puzzle and i am going to complete it today as got tired yesterday!! lol

4:16 am

could anyone put me out of my misery? I am still stuck on pi6/30 and pi7/44. I don't "get" the alaska reference because there's no "i" near it. These are my last two I need. Then I'm finished and I will give clues til the cows come home.

4:17 am

Good luck Chrissy! Jen, I am sorry, I don't have them yet. I hope for some brilliant clues too ;)

4:18 am

ps. I went through the log, got the fruit reference. pi fruit meaning middle portion not the sweet fruit pl reference. tx!

4:19 am

quick clue if its not a seed it could be a 3 letter word that starts with p and the 2nd part is if someone asks you how old you are you tell them your ...

4:20 am

Haven't got those pi's jen, are they to do with fruit?

4:21 am

Ho Hum thanks for those clues i've got the pi s now

4:21 am

Me too, great clues!

4:23 am

got it...for the love I had read those clues from way before ...specifically the one saying to start in middle then go straight up one side.... I was going up the WRONG side. This is such the story of my life! Completed... thanks so much, off to get coffee, be back with the clues I promised!

4:23 am

Struggling with the nasty Ns. I have ni4/5, ni5/12 and ni4/5. What are the other two?

4:23 am

4:24 am

Congrats Jen, have fun ;)

4:24 am

Is there really an fa7 ?

4:24 am

I have No5/12

4:26 am

ferrari - if you have the fa4/7 then add indigestion to it

4:28 am

Sprite - thanks - now I only need one more N :)

4:28 am

How many words today?

4:29 am

dianne, I've got 2 fa4/7's

4:30 am

ferrari - it is an extension of my first Fa 4/7.

4:32 am

162 words today

4:32 am

I have 2x Fa4/7 too and the first one cannot be made into any 7, as far as I can see. Mine rhymes with a small boat.

4:34 am

ferrari: found it. There is another Fa4, comes before the others, change the last letter of the second Fa4/7.

4:34 am

the fa 7 is a weathercock plus american petrol

4:35 am

errr.... that is your first, ferrari ;)

4:35 am

thanks dianne, what a word. sprite it's a spanish bushel

4:37 am

Another new word for me, to remember and try to use, lol. I love the Ti6, didn't know that one either.

4:37 am

Ti6 - ins't that what the Wonderbra is supposed to do?

4:38 am

Exactly!

4:38 am

Diane your clue for Ti/6 is one of the best I've seen! LOL LOL LOL

4:38 am

the ti 6 is a lovely word, you can imagine D'Arcy ti*****ing to dry off his wet shirt

4:40 am

A friend of mine calls the bra an upper-decker flopper stopper!

4:40 am

jenwould - you make me blush.

crimeny- I cannot get the ak 5/18- any clues?

9:20 am

i'm trying to do it today with no help from the log..saw the wonderbra one and it's still not clicking...but i'll come back.. i have about 4 left...

9:21 am

It is a great babble word once you find it.:)

9:22 am

Yes I do Bugzy! I wore the wrong shoes for it though. I will sacrifice myself and walk over blisters and all during lunch!

9:22 am

fmitch...can't get babblers to come up...what's total point...didn't write it down...

9:23 am

162 for 1837

9:25 am

It will be totally worth the pain Lupe... Have fun! :) Any clues for the uh's, anyone?

9:25 am

oh fmitch...that is a total babble word...whoo hoo done....***pours champers for me and fmitch***

9:26 am

:-)

9:26 am

oooh thanks Baggo and well done. It's a great word isn't it ....Cheers!

9:27 am

cheers!! i really didn't think that should be a word, kept looking at it...and just put it in...:-)

9:27 am

ge 5/14 will be 113 still a long way to go... can anyone help me up to speed?

9:28 am

has to be added to the list along with ywis and crhms as someone was saying earlier today

9:29 am

question......... why does it not except lakhs when it is a word?

9:30 am

yes i agree...bubbles, i guess it's not in enable..

9:31 am

lucky do you need that clue? if so think of salami

9:31 am

Lucky you are doing well, let us know what you need help on.

9:32 am

can I have a clue for the 2 Uh words plz?

9:32 am

Bubbles1- Maybe Babble doesn't accept lakhs because it's an Indian word. Just guessing. Also, Enable is key source. Not there, no word. Just beez that way.

9:32 am

baggo salami??? geezihateit

9:33 am

if you have the ul's add the h...if not i'll get a real def

9:33 am

forget that, I 've got them

9:33 am

Bubbles-- Actually, Babble accepted the singular. I don't think you can get to the plural.

9:33 am

luck how about a jib used in sailling??? that any better???lol

9:34 am

ohh ty baggo, I just saw your post

9:34 am

i looked on the a2z and its on there.

9:35 am

bubble, pl must not be a word, not in merriam wbster

9:35 am

a2z is just an aid. It's not the official source. Singular works. Can't get to the plural. Letters have to touch.

9:35 am

Ok ok i'm thick not paying any attention, your right you cannot get to it. I'm gonna go and hide in the corner.

9:35 am

missing an o oa 5 18 oa 4 8 ok 4 8 on 4 4 op 4 6 op 4 5

9:35 am

fyi not all words on babble are on a2z...

9:36 am

Bub-- Come out of the corner. Everyone who is perfect, raise a hand.

9:36 am

ok 5/18

9:36 am

Baggo thanks for your clues but I think I am not American enough anymore living in Holland to get some of your clues HELP

9:37 am

by the way, you helped me with my last "l", so there.

9:37 am

my face is now the same colour as grommits nose!!!

9:38 am

okay a word for a man, minus a letter...plus 2 vowels...

does anyone have the address for the second letter list?

9:39 am

scsong...dr_g put a link under friends of babble...

9:39 am

baggo, I have now tried all 5 letter words around the ok and cannot find it, are you teasing me?!?!?

9:39 am

if you look on the right hand side of this site you will see friends of babble its the babblers anonymous one

thanks baggo!!

9:40 am

oops it's for ok5/20 i gave you the oa5...think of an indian tribe...

9:42 am

Lets try another op 4/6 Baggo can I twist your arm again?

9:42 am

a german term for grandpa...

9:43 am

THe semi-precious gem, change the last letter.

9:43 am

or as we always find a fish in a babble puzzle, the real def for the op4/6 is a moonfish

9:44 am

Baggo your the best! op 4/6 in the bag!

9:44 am

still cant find it baggo, any other clues for the british dunce plz?

9:45 am

heres the real def...(it ends with a vowel)ruminant forest mammal of the Congo River basin in Africa, related to the giraffe but smaller and having a short neck, reddish-brown body, creamy white cheeks, and whitish stripes and bands on the legs

9:46 am

Joelgee .. my thanks extends to you too ofcourse!

9:46 am

ohhh got it!! ty baggo

9:46 am

wtg jakes-mum ***stomping on dunce cap**

9:46 am

The op4/6 sounds like a Greek exclamation (around here, it's what they say when they light the saganaki). Thanks all, BTW, for helping me finish my o's...

9:47 am

Ssee you are doing a serling job baggo! Got called away there for 5 mins back now.

9:47 am

fmitch i wondered where you went

9:47 am

Nice clue, bugzy--thanks

9:48 am

Y/W Scoutsmom... didn't know if anyone would get the Greek connection...

9:49 am

Wonder where Anj and the rest of the crew are this afternoon?

9:49 am

Baggo what real def are you talking about 9:45 am??

9:49 am

ok, just a bit of a teaching moment...since we all can get the second letter list quite easily now thanks to dr g...what i do is try all i can without it's aid...then copy it to a word document and go back and check off what i have...use the point count and go alphabetically and you should be able to come up with the odd ones pretty easily...unless you're math challenged then ignore the above...5's are x2, 6'sx3 etc.... ;-)

9:49 am

the OK 5/20, anyone have any ideas, can't find it anywhere

9:49 am

would anyone be kind enough to post a list of P's or H's plz???

9:50 am

kc8501 - if you reaad down the log just a few entries you will se the definition and clues too!

9:50 am

the ok5/20 lucky...kc see clues below...

9:50 am

9:51 am

Duh. n/m I found it hiding behind that "invisiable" tile

9:51 am

Baggo thanks that beast was down with me already

9:51 am

excellent advice, Baggo! I use notepad myself. (start, accessories, notepad) :)

9:52 am

fmitch...anj has a concert tonight, he was on ezboard earlier with a post...he said if he had no fun he'd be back on tomorrow, and lola is with 3 yo's at pizza hut and someplace else...

9:53 am

9:55 am

Baggo - for us thickies......how do you get the 2nd letter list easily.......what has Dr God done that I am not aware of to help with this? Not been babbling much lately so I must have missed it.

9:56 am

sorry baggo, just saw the request, didn't see Jakes reply...

9:56 am

hey mtn, i went to broad ripple yesterday looking for the vegetarian rest, and couldn't find it, and i've not heard of the pony???? any clues?

9:57 am

Pretty sure mtnjock just made that all up the other day. there's no such place as the pony! mtn, quit messing with people!

9:57 am

ty mtn, I copied your list over what I got from babblers anon, I like to have point values

9:57 am

Madxser...up in the friends of a babble box, there is a babblers anonymous link, click on it, go to general and then to stats, brandyjack rocks, he posts all the stats there...copy paste to a word document, and theya re at your hand

9:58 am

jakes mum go further down, you'll see all the points with the second letter post....

9:59 am

There is a English Pub (the pony is a rock bar down the alley behind it) near the end of the main strip in Broad Ripple. The veggie place is 2 blocks up the strip and on the right. It has a mediterrian theme to it. Great Place, I will get the name and post later today, I have co-workers in Indy who will tell me the name, loc exactly for you.

9:59 am

It it-it it it it itttts Me! Hurrah!

9:59 am

I have to add that I copy and paste to excel instead of word as I find it easier to manimulate the data that way but then I am probably an excel g4/10

9:59 am

nice to know scoutsmom, i've lived not far from broad ripple, my whole life, never had heard of it the other day, but bars are ever changing there, and thought it might be off the main street...mtn, you owe me gas money....lol

10:00 am

WooHoo!!!!!!! Iiiiittttt'ss AANNJJ!!! Sorry do we know ya? LOL

10:00 am

Thanks Baggo - I will go and have a nosy.

10:00 am

evil scoutsMom! I am not messing with people! Baggo, I will buy you dinner when I come through at thanksgiving! Probably over the weekend.

10:01 am

fmitch, I've been using notepad. I'm not much of an excell user. What are the benefits?

10:01 am

i've been to the mediterr place...but the pony...you sure it's not the patio???? that's down the back alley from union jacks..

10:01 am

Anj - Go ahead and Jump!

10:01 am

oh, come on. i'm just having fun with y'all. i'm in a grand old mood because g. will be here tomorrow.

10:01 am

fmitch...excel is much easier for me as well!

10:02 am

Think it's a personal thing I tend to use excel where others would use word.

10:02 am

hello anj love.....when's the concert...shouldn't you be primping????

10:03 am

back in my hey day there, it used to be called the pony! my college roommate bartended at Union Jacks for years and we would go there afterwords...

10:03 am

scoutsMom, I have a clock counting down the 32 hours until G gets here for you...

10:03 am

ah yes, mtn. confusion arised from the fact that you're OLD!

10:03 am

fmitch, I just opened excell. I ran screaming. thanks, but us simple folk will stick to notepad! lol

10:04 am

LOL Deutsch

10:04 am

you're just a few years behind me scouts, so don't push it!

10:04 am

ok mtn, i'm older than you...so hey maybe we were in the same spots. did you live here?

10:05 am

Hi Baggo, Bugzy, FMitch, All :) Naw, I've got an hour to play with but I need to feed before I go and do the rock thang :) This one was a pussycat. Had a good laugh at the ti6 :D That sounded like a medical problem...

10:05 am

if the pony is the patio, the patio is closing..dark place tiny??

10:05 am

yeah, went to Purdue, and then helped build out the FedEx hub for 2 years there at the airport. Most of my college buds still live there. Mom lives in South Bend, works for ND, so I go back often.

10:06 am

hiya... Deustch - should you be screaming w/ your laryngitis & all??? : )

10:06 am

its closing? uh huh... that place rocked. Hard rock, live bands...

10:07 am

sorry, meant to say coughing my lungs up! lol

10:07 am

oh, i see, hubby is up working at purdue on a remodel this week, he says he hardly recognized the campus...south bend is a great town...

10:07 am

The 5/20s are eluding me. Any ideas for the kn 5/20 or the ok 5/20 please?

10:07 am

munner...do you have kn 5/20 - head, shoulders, ____ and toes?

10:08 am

munner, kn5 think of a sack...and the ok is an antelope like thing...

10:08 am

kn5/20 is plural of kn 4/9.

10:08 am

campus started changing when I left, went back for 5 year reunion with the guys, almost got lost (no smokestack to guide anymore). South Bend is great, beautiful town, hate the lake effect snow... ;)

10:09 am

see i'd love the lake effect snow, we don't get much here, if it's cold better have snow!!

10:10 am

exactly! Memphis gets about an inch a year... and it doesn't stick around (thank god), cause the people here don't know how to drive in good weather, let alone rain, sleet or snow!

10:11 am

Handyman is finally here. BBL

10:12 am

Woo Hoo! Hooray for *ahem* handy men! Enjoy, Deutsch!

10:12 am

ty, Lucky and Baggo. I was going the wrong direction. Have to recover now from dizziness!

10:13 am

no prob munner, how go things???

10:13 am

let me know how much snow you'd like.... we get at least 150" per year here

10:14 am

i'll come live with you...are you near the lake too??

10:14 am

Poo's Mom: I will take 5-6 inches every other week, if you don't mind. Scattered or all at once, your choice. Esp. since Scout has never seen it.

10:14 am

Wow Poo's Mum that is a lot of snow!!!

10:15 am

I'm in the PA snow belt just south of Erie

10:15 am

do you ever get to Put IN Bay (Sandusky)?

10:15 am

i heard on the weather channel, what we can expect the winter to be as bad as the hurricane season...

10:16 am

Holy Cow... I live on the "non-lake effect" side of the lakes... we get about 40-50 inches a year, and that's plenty for me!

10:17 am

You'll notice I said 'at least'; those are the slow years LOL Glad my driveway isn't particularly big :) Sandusky? no.... Have a brother in Ashtabula, that's about as far into OH I go

10:17 am

We are getting warnings for the UK that it is going to be a very hard winter too but nothing like yours by the sound of it!

10:17 am

can I have a clue for the Pi6/30 plz

10:17 am

Hello from Cape Cod Mass.

10:20 am

10:20 am

10:24 am

10:24 am

you're welcome gnu

10:24 am

Hey ScoutsMom! What is Memphis' official trick or treat night?

10:24 am

lol, hi coosin! :)

10:25 am

are you getting all dolled up for the concert?

10:25 am

I hadn't heard, mtn. I assumed it was, you know, halloween night. why would it be otherwise?

10:25 am

Hey Lola! Baggo, I wish! Nein, my family want me to be "cultured" (hah) , I think, so I'm in Rome, sadly without Dir en Grey.

10:25 am

1 word to go with no clues so far, need the 2nd PA4/6

10:26 am

Was that question for me mtn?

10:26 am

got it, done!

10:26 am

gnu...to touch or the test women should have done yearly..

10:27 am

thanks, baggo! got it just before you posted

10:27 am

lola you survived pizza and the outing??? i have to go be lunch lady for 200 in about 20 minutes...

10:28 am

the dolled up one? yes, it was for you lola! scoutsMom, its Memphis, last year it was saturday and not Sunday (the 31st)... thats why I was asking.

10:29 am

baggo, are you moonlighting as a lunchlady?

10:29 am

No, last year it was halloween night. That's when I took the picture that is my icon right now...I'd just gotten back from Indiana that day.

10:30 am

yep every friday you can find me at my kids school, helping out...really must go and eat before i go, cause i wont want to after...its a great diet...

10:30 am

Ah, is anyone else looking forward to Halloween? THe parents insist it's a pagan festivil but that's nothing to stp me donning visual kei and scaring the elderly...mwahahahaha...

10:31 am

See you baggo! I have to go too.

10:32 am

I am, Scout is coming over (dressed as ... a little devil) and she is helping me hand out candy! and going down to the haunted house down the street!

10:32 am

Miyavi...I love halloween. It's better than christmas.

10:35 am

I'm forced to agree with that...Christmas in my house gets pretty scary, what with the sister 'smiling' and my parents staring with undisguised disgust at the dir en grey CD's I beg for.

10:35 am

Get this... my son is planning on being Darth Vader for Halloween. This week, his school sends home a note saying all kids must dress up as "positive role models" for Halloween parties at school, ie. no villains, etc. So he's going in his last year's costume, a king. I think that's such a crock!! Just had to vent...

10:36 am

baggo- barely... :/ No, lol, actually it was good fun :) mtn- I'm not going to a concert, Anj is :)

10:36 am

Punster, Ka 5/18 consists of a electrally charged form

10:37 am

bugzy: r u serious? Darth Vader can be a positive role model as well - not following the norm of the society, thinking outside the box...etc.

10:37 am

that is a big load of crock.

10:38 am

Bugzy, I have the same problem. Scout's day care said they could wear costumes as long as they were "friendly." So I made a joke about my apple-cheeked girly dressing up like a little red devil and they were so shocked they told me she couldn't wear it to school. It's velvet! It has sequins! It's a couple of horns and a tail away from being elmo, for crying out loud! SHe's wearing it anyway.

10:38 am

That's what my son said "He's a good role model for the Dark Side!!" LOL

10:39 am

Who is a better role for redemption than Darth Vader? How feisty do you want to get about this? I say put it on the school board to make a stink. Right to the Supreme Court, baby!

10:40 am

Of course Darth Vader is a positive role model, especially since so many children these days are aspiring to take over the world

10:40 am

Agree. talking about limiting the freedom of speech. Plus, look at the girl darth vader got. He got to hang out with Princess Amidala...

10:40 am

Myself included

10:40 am

I'll admit, though...a vader costume would've been cooler than the red devil. But I don't remember seeing one in her size. *alas*

10:41 am

Well, if you wanted to take over the world, you could always dress like pinky and the brain.

10:41 am

Scouts-- A teacher at Joe's preschool a couple of years ago also had a problem with the t-shirt that he wore (bought at Old Navy) that said "Little Devil" on it. Crazy!!! Not to get political here, but what also gets me is that one of the suggestions of "positive role models" they gave was a soldier....

10:43 am

www.buycostumes.com has all the Star Wars characters, in all kinds of sizes. They had an adorable Yoda costume for toddlers. It was sold out in August, tho. That's when I got Joe's costume from there. He decided a long time ago that he was going to be Darth Vader....

10:43 am

Bugsy: Can they dress up as power rangers? Because I think they are the worst role models ever!

10:44 am

A soldier! What the hell?! How is that a positive influence! Oh yeah, let's go kill people...in a POSITIVE way!

10:44 am

I guess it depends who's defining "positive role model". I guess you can see soldiers on the news any time doing soldiery things, but you have to be a certain age to see Darth Vader. Go figure.

10:45 am

Bugzy: time to move to California (more liberal?!?) ... I can't imagine such a thing happening here!

10:45 am

Exactly... who's to decide what "positive" is. We were considering using one of Joe's old costumes, a Ninja, but wondered if it was "Positive" or not... Anyway, can you tell that Joe picks costumes based on how cool the weapons are that go with it??? LOL

10:47 am

AK 4/8 AND AK 5/18 PLEEZ SOME CLUES?

10:47 am

Lucky--sounds like what you use to open your locked door, and then plural.

10:48 am

the ak's sound like what you put in a lock to open it

10:49 am

Of course ninjas are positive influences! If I was made to dress as a positive influence, I would probably go as Marilyn Manson, then make up loads of good stuff about him.

10:51 am

LOL Miyavi.... MM has probably done wonders for the sales of disturbingly pale colored contact lenses, for example...

10:52 am

thanks bob x

10:52 am

bugsy: Ninja's are definitely good role models - they're the most disciplined ppl on the planet!

10:53 am

no probs bubby. Used jo's card. x Hi all *waves*

10:54 am

Indeed, Bugzy! Though I found out only the other day that his real name is Brian Wagner, so he has also bought laughter to many peoples lives. Nothing against the name, it just really doesn't suit him!

10:54 am

Help, please!!!!! pi6/30 and pi7/44

10:55 am

Walnutchen, indeedy.

10:55 am

Hi bobsta! :) Woo, bubbles went pro! :D

10:56 am

hey lola ;o)

10:57 am

I thought I read that he's getting married, too, Miyavi? So a positive role model for *that* sacred institution! walnutchen - not to mention in fantastic physical shape... you don't see many overweight ninjas!

10:57 am

say thanks to jo for me please. Hi lola finally got it!!

10:57 am

pi6 and pi7 - slange for what a plumber fixes, someone said earlier...

10:59 am

got to go now. Bye all

10:59 am

bubbles, go get yourself a pink handbag now girlfriend ;)

10:59 am

Good morning, all -- I suppose you are all close to finishing this thing!

10:59 am

Bugzy, yep. To a, er, stripper. So that may not last as long as hoped. Though she seems quite committed, she bought him a...er...indecent statue. Ah, true love!

11:00 am

Hi cybernan :)

11:00 am

ok hun will do, don't need to tell me twice!

11:00 am

lol! See you later bubbles :)

11:01 am

Anyone have a clue for the ak's?

11:02 am

Hey, cybernan. Do Canadians make a to-do over halloween?

11:10 am

Will do, Scoutsmom... and Poo's, not even a gordita? A chalupa? A pintos and cheese? Well, OK... TTFN!

11:11 am

Yes, we celebrate Halloween, but mostly in parties and treats for the kids -- although a few adults also let the kid in them out! I've never seen such a fuss as what they do in Europe, though!

11:12 am

Frances - thanks, but still struggling. Maybe I'll go away and come back later! Cybernan - what do they do Over There?

11:14 am

We have theme parties in pubs and clubs in Britain - the adults probably have more fun than the kids! I'm gigging tonight and tomorrow and will have to dress-up for both!

12:46 pm

It's been sick on and off today.

12:47 pm

STATS also show up when you cough up the dough to go pro.

12:48 pm

Don't know why more people don't go pro -- cost is reasonable and such a great game deserves support!

12:49 pm

Apparently no dumbness here, just an incredibly short attention span. What were we talking about?

1:04 pm

Babblers Anon has been sick on and off today.

1:05 pm

Oh dear no, Hello Kitty is babyish... Tokyo Mew Mew is more like Sailor Moon, can get a bit more sexy than I'm comfortable with for my 9 year old.

1:06 pm

Missing the last U. I have the U4x2 and the U5x2 that all sound the same. Clue for last one?

1:06 pm

There are U's in this puzzle? (I'm on the G's)

1:07 pm

Back from lunch... I can't wait to see the devil costume, Scouts... tho the bumblebee is adorable too. My little guy (2) is going to be Winnie the Pooh - don't know how long that costume will stay on, though...

1:07 pm

Take you UL and add a cooking utensil.

1:07 pm

Oh, Judi...I miss U too.

1:08 pm

1:09 pm

I'm sensing a fire-spewing theme here, Jera... :)

1:23 pm

1:24 pm

I was happy to see an4/9 (wearing one right now)!

1:24 pm

mama, rhymes with "pains"

1:25 pm

I found those short little A's just doing the math & typing stuff in... no idea what most of them mean...

1:25 pm

an 4/4 sounds like a response to a question...but it only sounds like that if you're from Boston.

1:25 pm

evanonut - thx but I have that one

1:25 pm

just went pro - testing my icon - sorry for the interruption

1:26 pm

egyptian religious symble.

1:26 pm

1:27 pm

that it is - thought it would fit in with this rowdy drinking crowd LOL!

1:27 pm

mamabear, my clue was for the last an4/4. is that what you needed?

1:27 pm

cute icon Kristin - I think I'll join the pro ranks today - it's about time I made it legal.... not a babble virgin anymore

1:27 pm

take your ga 5/30, and no k, but a p

1:27 pm

ga 5 is pl of ga4/11 (reminiscent of Hagrids baby brother...)

1:28 pm

if you have a ga4/11, turn it into a 3rd person active verb.

1:28 pm

yes ScoutsMOm - muchas grasias

1:28 pm

mamabear I resisted forever but couldn't resist the icon temptation

1:29 pm

do you get icons to choose from or do you have to find your own?

1:29 pm

kristen, nice icon, but i'm charmed by the dog in mtnjocks icon

1:29 pm

AARGHH!!! Plural... plural... plural!!!

1:30 pm

you find your own but it gives instructions on how to insert the icon - trust me i'm by far computer literate and I did it - just google whatever kind of image you are looking for

1:30 pm

Can I get a hint for the kn 5/20

1:30 pm

Okay ge5/14... I'm ready to smack myself again...

1:30 pm

hi all. worry, slow today! ti 6 - boob + sheep? don't get it. ok5 - animal of africa? any help would be great! Then i can go back to being productive for the day!

1:30 pm

kn4/9... plural... = kn5/20

1:30 pm

evanonut, thats Beau, he's a favorite of mine as well (he is quite the character)...

1:31 pm

Jera-- Can we watch?

1:31 pm

kn 5/20 = kn 4/9+s

1:31 pm

(banging head on monitor) plurals plurals, babble = mind yoga!

1:31 pm

my boy, macky, i 3. he's obsessive compulsive.

1:34 pm

Coulda sworn I tried that!!! Thanks... on to the K's...

1:34 pm

diane: 162. not too bad - not too many super long words today...

1:34 pm

That's the town my soap is in... :>

thanks walnut

1:35 pm

This is so cool. I can actually work on one half of my screen and follow the chat on the other half. When you spend all your working time alone in a smallish room, it really helps.

1:35 pm

If your soap is in that town, how do you wash?

1:36 pm

Need ti6 help, pleas! I know what a boob is. (We have those in Montana.) I know what a sheep is. (We have those in Montana.) I'm still missing something.

1:36 pm

ok, my turn for idiocy, help with the first la 5/12?

1:36 pm

just heard a good one guys... "if ignorance is bliss, why aren't there more happy people" - quoth the little taggie on my teabag.

1:37 pm

think underwire bra, pushup bra, they do what to boobs?

1:37 pm

More than one la4/4

1:37 pm

la 5/12 French bunny rabbit!

1:37 pm

oops my mistake. If I said it's French for rabbit, would that help?

1:38 pm

thanks spellit, don't speak french but knew that word!

1:38 pm

harpjane ti6/24 t..t..

1:38 pm

mtnjock: Tony stewart was la5 (soundslike!) some ppl this Past sunday

1:39 pm

my favorite quote is a Dilbert - Dilbert is intereviewing a guy and says "I don't mean to frighten you, but you'll have to do some actual work" and the guy interviewing replies "that's crazy talk" - the guy must have found the Babble website!

1:40 pm

evanonut - you just made my profile of great babble quotes...

1:41 pm

kristine - good one mtnjock - NICE!

1:41 pm

I got the ti word. Thanks. We don't use that word for sheep out here. Babblers learn something every day!

1:42 pm

finally... last one... ti5! any help would be awesome.

1:42 pm

my favorite dilbert is about the numbing, where they all go to watch a co-worker as he stresses about his work until he cant take it anymore, then he crosses over and is numbed,...i wish i would cross over already.

1:43 pm

oops, I meant ok5, not ti5. man.. losing my mind...

1:43 pm

7 p words left, uuggghhh how are you fareing scouts?

1:43 pm

No ti5. Two ti4. One ti6

1:44 pm

btw, my favorite dilbert thing is that he says that companies will keep promoting ppl upward until they can do the least harm to the company. So the better worker you are, the lower on the totem pole you stay!

1:45 pm

the ok5 would be your antelope-like beastie.

1:45 pm

Walnutchen - how true it is!

1:45 pm

ah walnut...i just knew i was good...now i have proof. * sitting cross legged at the bottom of the pole * could be worse, i could be in files i guess

1:45 pm

walnutchen ok5/20 forest mammal

1:46 pm

having trouble keeping up with the animal clues - can't find the fench rabbit or the sheep and now there's an antelope.... you have to be Noah to play this game!!!

1:46 pm

also called a "forest giraffe".

1:46 pm

This is only tangentially related, but I've been sitting here all morning doing my job and listening to my boss invite ALMOST every person in the office over for thanksgiving dinner. It's the ALMOST that's ticking me off.

1:47 pm

alright thank you so much all...!!!! yeah!

1:47 pm

awe scouts - my boss promised me monday she wasn't leaving, and announced yesterday she was.

1:47 pm

That's not right for a boss to do that. Tell him/her I said so. Bad management policy. Everybody or nobody.

1:48 pm

Spellit, your doggy looks like my doggy. Is your dog a husky?

1:48 pm

kristin/Evonut... Yeah, I am sitting here on the bottom of the totem pole also. ahhaha. Too bad I don't know how to cause some damage... any ideas?

1:49 pm

walnut - hatchet if you want to watch some people tumble first chainsaw for complete dessimation

1:49 pm

That's what I'm saying. I would rather hang out, just Scout and me, for the holiday. Relax and watch "A Bug's Life" and crap like that, spend the day in our pajamas. But don't play favorites. Give me the chance to gracefully turn down an invite.

1:50 pm

any help with pi 6/30?

1:50 pm

scouts, turn the table and invite your boss, make like you don't know about these invites :-)

1:51 pm

pi6 - fee charged for using someone else's oil pipes... or, slangly, Man, I have soo much pi6 that I don't know what to do with it....

1:51 pm

Scoutsmom-- So you don't want to go, but you're feeling bad that you're not invited. Things like that remind us of the relative importance of the workplace, sometimes.

1:51 pm

evan, good call, devious, yet sublime...

1:51 pm

ok all. time for my exercise of the week.. Ultimate Frisbee time! see you all later. Thanks for all your help! have a great weekend!

1:52 pm

mtn - how ironic, that's my husbands pet name for me.

1:52 pm

Clue for the last 6-letter word? I have F6, P6x2, T6 and U6

1:52 pm

whenever I click on the babblers anon link I just get a page saying service maintainence. What am I doing wrong? Newbie here so need all the help I can get!

1:52 pm

Thanks walnutchen! Great clue... Man, I got... LOL

1:54 pm

Nothing to do with you. BA has been up and down all day.

1:54 pm

1:56 pm

I have the U6, Mtnjock. Must be something else.

1:56 pm

evanonut what you use to open a door

1:57 pm

+ plural

1:57 pm

pl6 pl6 pi6, which one do you need a clue for?

1:58 pm

No, I do not care to go. But as a former boss of many people (changed careers recently), I know that exclusion does not foster productivity.

1:58 pm

epiphany! tx guys

1:59 pm

The other PL-6. I have the one that means boards.

1:59 pm

Evan, Your husband's pet name for you is devious or sublime.

1:59 pm

true scout, neither does dwelling on negatives or making your employees feel stupid and inferior

1:59 pm

Judi - A movie Pl****, trains and automobiles...

1:59 pm

i believe he intones that the devious leads to the sublime

2:00 pm

Thank you for the Pl-6. I'm so stupid I should jump out of one right now.

2:00 pm

I am missing the 2 HA 5/12s. Could someone please help me? Thanks.

2:02 pm

HA** Christian Anderson (childrens author) + vowel then change the vowel

2:03 pm

Schroeder - I love your new icon - LOL

2:03 pm

Thanks mtnjock. Who knew those were words? Muchly appreciated.

2:03 pm

Done, who needs help, I am here for the next 1/2 hour!

2:03 pm

judi - not without a glass of champs you don't

2:04 pm

Scout - just have to say that I love your "productivity" comment and here you are babbling -

2:04 pm

thanks MAMABEAR, figured everyone should be in costume.

2:04 pm

i need the last an 4, i got the one that rhymes with pain and the one that is mixed up nasa

2:04 pm

Pouring a big glass of Jack and Coke... Where is the party tonight, seeing our cruise director Lola is out!

2:05 pm

Thanks, Evanonut. I'll just drink it on my way dowwwwwwn.

2:05 pm

Lola and Anj are both MIA - obviously we weren't invited to the party and on a Friday night at that!

2:05 pm

evan - egyptian religious symbol of old

2:06 pm

Judi, count to 10 and pull the ripcord

2:06 pm

now if i had only paid attention in school...

2:06 pm

kristin, they are at a rock concert

2:06 pm

Kristin, that just illustrates my point.

2:07 pm

evan - think logans run... LOL... or an Kappa Happy

2:08 pm

Scout, considering my boss (a VP at that) sits and surfs the internet all day, don't think I feel any guilt for babbling all day

2:09 pm

ah to have internet access at work - but security first they say.

2:12 pm

what kind of work are you in Evan?

2:12 pm

and did you get the an from the Clues?

2:14 pm

no i didn't, and i'm in investigations

2:15 pm

i'd bang my head off the wall, but it doesn't seem worth it for one word.

2:15 pm

evan - very cool about the job! and look at the caps in my last post.

2:16 pm

mtnjock, ... you sly devil you!

2:16 pm

i shall remember if ever your case comes across my desk

2:19 pm

Eeshi - are you there?

2:19 pm

as a client or as a someone under investigation?

2:20 pm

'm here big mama

2:20 pm

i meant, what's up little mamabear??

2:20 pm

hmmm, you'd be a client? you kind of need to be a company owner for that. haven't you ever been investigated mtnjock

2:21 pm

Hello fellow babblers. Been watching the Sox rally...... how's everyone doing today. Happy Friday!

2:23 pm

ah lupe, i'm feelin bad for those astros

2:24 pm

evenonut - as they've said in Chicago for the last 80+ years: "maybe next year..."

2:24 pm

it takes me so long and a lot of mental energy to get about a third of the words every day. Do you all have jobs or are you all super intellectual?

2:24 pm

hi all! :) any1 have a clue for the uh's?

2:25 pm

mama 77, i'm an idiot, only ever get half, and i work, just not any more today...mental health day.

2:25 pm

Mammabear, Huh?

2:26 pm

evan - once about 10 years when I applied to work at FedEx. Got the job.

2:26 pm

ditto for me mama77. I'm still trying to figure out the codes half the time and others are thanking the clue givers mere seconds after receiving the clues. Wondering if there are any fakers out there...:)

2:26 pm

Gasp! I'm done. Been a while since I finished one.

2:26 pm

today is friday - i've worked 7 days full time. how on earth can I get all the words. Help!

2:27 pm

don't fell bad Mama77 - I usually only finish the smaller puzzles - but it's so much fun in here I subject myself to mental torture trying to finish the bigger puzzles (to no avail).

2:27 pm

Tbug - the uh are the ul but with an h thrown in!

2:27 pm

Having brain drain on the last 19, hoping food will help

2:27 pm

ah, I'm in good company, Lupe613

2:27 pm

ah mtnjock, might have been my company did that, i know we do postal. i don't do postal though, i do department of defense. much more fun, that one.

2:28 pm

go Judi, go Judi, here is your glass of champagne or would you like a jack and coke along with me?

2:28 pm

LOL Lisabex :-)

2:28 pm

Evanonut - being a Sox fan, I am overjoyed at their long awaited victory for the city, however, I also feel sympathy for the Astros. But they have to be happy they just got to play in it this year - their first time EVER!!!!

2:29 pm

now as senior tech, I do interviews and background checks for all potential new hires in my department (I am a computer geek)

2:29 pm

i've only been playing a little over a week... find it extremely helpful after finding what i can to print the two letter list... mark off what i got and get clues from the alphabetical order

2:29 pm

Hey coosin, are you pouring the champers tonight?! :)

2:29 pm

Lupe613 and Lisabex - I can connect with you. Can you understand how these people get such wonderful scores when my brain is absolutely drained achieving only one third of their scores?

2:29 pm

right you are mamab - they'll go down in history as the first astros team ever to lose in the world series. they lost rather completely too!

2:29 pm

mama77 - dont worry I am the same..I work full time (no access to babble in work) so only usualy manage to play for an hour or so each night.have only ever finished 2 !!!!!.its just the fun of it

2:29 pm

mammabear: First time our Astros have gotten so far! We're just happy for an excuse to party...that'll be a Jack and water, please.

2:30 pm

evanonut glad to hear to don't go postal....oh sorry that was do postal

2:30 pm

very PC of you mamabear. I just ran in high heeled boots from my office to catch the motorcade and waive like a child at the Sox players. I figure I make a fool of myself all the time for no good reason, may as well do it for a good cause.

2:30 pm

Well yes, been waiting for you to come back... We need our Julie McCoy to get us started, here's your glass sweetie... Let me pour you a tall one.

2:30 pm

tyvm mtn :)

2:31 pm

Aaah, thank you coosin, need one of those :)

2:31 pm

mama77 - just keep trying and hope that the next puzzle is a small one.

2:31 pm

mama77 - i finished my first puzzle over 50 words yesterday. 153 words. but I was up until midnite!!! Are you using the crutches? Like clues on the log and a2zwordfinder and google? If I tried to just get them on my own totally, I would be in a strait jacket.

2:31 pm

finished about 30 minutes ago, decided to pour for everyone in your absense...

2:31 pm

schroeder...worry not, wouldn't care. besides, yours is a bit lower investigation, much easier. mtnjock, isn't it cool the things you find out. well somettimes, sometimes you just want to throw up.

2:32 pm

Lupe613 what are the smaller puzzles? CathB Hello How long did it take you to finish 2 games when you work full time

2:32 pm

Hola Lola!! Thank goodness - I need a drink to quench my thirst after that humiliating run...

2:32 pm

mtnjock - what are we drinkiin? I'm ready!!!!

2:32 pm

puzzles with less than 100 words...... at least I consider them "smaller"

2:32 pm

so sad to say that I share an office w/Siouxz and together we usually only get about a third of the words - two brains... half the words.. very little work happenin'...

2:33 pm

Cosmo's anyone?

2:33 pm

mamab - it's five o clock somewhere

2:33 pm

tell me about it, there was one that I was sure would be a perfect addition to a team, and then I saw his records and well.... you understand.

2:33 pm

Well done coosin! And thanks! Can you take my place for a while longer? Haven't finished yet :)

2:33 pm

2:56 pm

Beau cefus, beau regard, beau jangles...

2:56 pm

I usually allow it when I'm running out of time or just burned out with 50 words to go... seem to hit a wall then most of the time!

2:56 pm

2:57 pm

I have 2 dogs - while we're on the canine subject - one looks just like the one on mtjock's pillow and the other one's name is Bo!!!!!!!

2:57 pm

i love my dog more then my boyfriend! they are jealous of one another...

2:58 pm

mamabear leaves room to go start filling up jacuzzi - nice and warm and bubbly.....

2:58 pm

2:58 pm

dang, a2z isn't helping with ap

2:58 pm

cats are stinky and they poop indoors...

2:58 pm

I have a cat, Zack & my daughter's cat is named Zippy... we found her abandoned in the woods after hurricane Floyd

2:59 pm

my cats: link and chocolate milk

2:59 pm

... not when u kick em outside! ;)

2:59 pm

AP think of your la5 thats not a plural and take off the L

2:59 pm

ap word... think big big monkeys without the e

2:59 pm

link is my savior, he keeps me from going right off the edge *looks over the edge*

3:00 pm

my dog smiles.... it cracks me up

3:00 pm

ooops - let me rephrase - think big big monkeys with the last 2 letters reversed..... maybe i shouldn't mix evanonut's goood pills with mtnjock's goooood drinks

3:00 pm

mama77 - had a lamumba last week in pollensa...very nice with warm choclate milk..the only thing was it took 2 bottles of cocao to dilute it enough to drink!!!..depends on the brandy

3:00 pm

My daughters cat is named skipper (and weighs 2lbs), cause he skips after our dog to beat him up (weighs 80 lbs)

3:00 pm

how many words are there today?

3:00 pm

Bori (borealis) is my savior too :) :) :)

3:01 pm

LOL Meisa

3:01 pm

162 words today

3:01 pm

Bori... that is a cute name... might have to steal that oneday

3:01 pm

I'd rather scoop cat poop than step in dog poop... or have to *gag* pick it up after following them around to watch them do their business. But that's just me.

3:02 pm

good pills do not go well with good drinks good tip mtn, you bring those clues right down to my level - so do you mama, but i only saw one cause i mixed those good pills with good drinks

3:02 pm

It's the funniest thing ever. He totally chases the dog and stands on his hind legs and just slaps him silly. Good entertainment.

3:02 pm

evanonut - did you get the ap?

3:02 pm

ScoutsMom - obviously a girl after my own heart. French brandy is not the same. Got to be Spanish only. French brandy served in this way can make you cross! (angry)

3:03 pm

thx... u welcome to "steal" it anytime! aurora borealis... aurora to hard to say... sounds like i'm howling myself, so went with borealis, bori for short

3:03 pm

Meisa - I'd love to see that! Good show I'm sure!

3:03 pm

Back again, see we are on the subject of dogs, I have 2 mini doxies Adolph and Eva

3:03 pm

sure did mama...tx meisa, my cat sent my dog (100lbs) to the vet one day.

3:03 pm

3:03 pm

3:07 pm

3:08 pm

3:09 pm

3:10 pm

Bugzy - you're not obscene - I've heard of that before. I was going to ask for a Sex on the Beach!!!

3:11 pm

MAMABear, no one just asks for A Sex on the Beach, you have to have several if you are going to do it right!

3:11 pm

Hold my order for a pina colada in 20 minutes... I think I'll need it...

3:11 pm

I could always do Pink Panties as well!

3:11 pm

I want to live on a farm with horses and all that good stuff, but then you can't live on the beach where I live. My dog is a cattle dog, bought him from cow farm. I don't think he could herd to save his life. He's little slow. (mentally) likes to bark at leaves and such.

3:11 pm

Hackerty - sorry to hear about your beag. I love that name, Curious George, for a beagle, how perfect! A friend has a beagle named Chase, which I love too. (I have 2 beagles myself - Bugsy and Sprite)

3:11 pm

mtnjock - one at a time.....

3:11 pm

Got it Jera...

3:11 pm

I used to have a cat that loved to play fetch with ponytail holder, LOL...

3:12 pm

Yes, me too hackerly, losing a loved pet is tough...

3:12 pm

love my dog, sometimes he barks at the cows, always barks at the bears. i like the bear warning myself.

3:13 pm

Hey, I need a relief bartender, who's up for it? I gotta run an errand...

3:13 pm

Yes, bear warnings are good. No bears on the beach, good trade off.

3:13 pm

evanonut - thanks for the warning!!! I'll have to watch out for your dog if I ever come visit you!!! Bear that I am

3:14 pm

my dog lets me know when the cats are fighting and dug a den in the backyard 10+feet long

3:14 pm

allright, mtn... I think I'm setting myself up for something here, but what's in a Pink Panty??

3:14 pm

i had CG for about 13 years... it was really tough They become like your children, the best companions anyone could ask for.... Sparky is alot of fun and he has helped me to move on....

3:14 pm

A big wolf howl greetings to all!!!

3:14 pm

i'll give it a shot mtn

3:15 pm

have fun TBug... I be back later guys... happy babbling!

3:15 pm

Evanonut is your cat Meisa playing babble too or is it just a coincidence that a player has that name to?

3:15 pm

aaarrrrrooooo back grey :)

3:15 pm

mamab - your welcome anytime, i'll call the big guy off, besides, he's all bark, no bite.

3:15 pm

Downs a slippery noodle and pours his Jack and Coke into a traveller, and heads for the door...

3:16 pm

alright what'll it be peops? anyone need a refill?

3:16 pm

sorry kristin, my cats are link and chocolate milk (and neither of them knows how to type - actually, they are the anti-type)

3:16 pm

later mtn - tx for the help

3:17 pm

Evanonut is it just a coincidence that there is a player called Meisa or is your cat playing babble too?

3:17 pm

They just kicked me out of work to save on hours. So I'll take a double of what everyone else is having.

3:17 pm

Bye mtn!!

3:17 pm

wow that cat rules!

3:18 pm

See ya mtn. Thx for the drinks!

3:18 pm

sorry for the double post - computer problems, I thought I read your cat Meisa hurt your dog, but maybe I missed something - sorry

3:18 pm

Kristen, Is that your cats name? I could be a cat, laying around getting my tummy rubbed all day. Not a bad life, except no babble to make the work day less suckey. No really, My parents are strange and I ended up with Chameisa, (meisa for short) to hard to pronounce other wise. Cha-me-sa.

3:18 pm

who? the anti-type? that would be chocolate milk

3:18 pm

wow... start with a double sex on the beach then...

3:19 pm

still doing something wrong - can't get my pic up on the left hand side

3:19 pm

i like chamiesa, i didn't get to name my cats, they came pre named by a 4 year old boy.

3:20 pm

My kitties are Sace (short for versace) a crazy little 5 month old kitten, and Tess. I think Meisa is a really cool name!

3:20 pm

Later, mtnjock...

3:21 pm

calling to find out where my hubby is, bet he is last minute shopping for my b-day

3:21 pm

o.k. I am in Wales. What time is it in your country and where are you?

3:21 pm

bye mtn--call you later & see you tomorrow!

3:22 pm

round of shots comin up... tequila, crown, jager?

3:22 pm

mama 77, in whose country? if you address the drinking, the saying is that it's 5 o clock somewhere.

3:22 pm

I told my mom, it was unfair that i got my name and they go and name my sister amanda. where is her starnge and totally unpronounceable name???

Is there only 2 ge 4/6??

3:22 pm

evanonut, is it your birthday? well, say! that's great.

3:22 pm

Mama77 - 3:22 pm in Tennessee (USA)

3:23 pm

Thx Tbug. Jumping into a thread midstream, I would like to share that the wolf has three cats - Twitch, a 5 yo magpie, and her daughters, Meeper & Creeper, both torties (dad was an orange tabby)

3:23 pm

There are 2 ge 4/6.

3:23 pm

3:23 pm

Thank you...

3:23 pm

1:20pm Santa Cruz, California.

3:24 pm

Sorry your having a bad day Evanonut, but Happy Birthday and Cheers ~

3:24 pm

i'm sorry to hear that. but to quote that old TV show, HeeHaw, "If it weren't fer bad luck I'd have no luck at all!"

3:24 pm

3:24 pm

3:24 pm

PS I think it's cute how y'all call me Scout. My daughter would chastise you, but I like it.

3:25 pm

If I lived alone, maybe. But the cat's are more baby friendly

3:25 pm

skaal, evanonut!

3:26 pm

skaal?

3:26 pm

However, given their appetites, some days it is hard to tell the difference

3:26 pm

mama77...where in Wales are you?

3:26 pm

Hi kristinand Meisa Just about to eat a very late dinner and I suppose you are sunning yourself at this time?

3:26 pm

NO SUNNING! haven't you ever heard of skin cancer.

3:27 pm

Mama77 - its sunny but not even 60 degrees outside - however I am getting ready to leave work and will warm myself up with some cocktails - cheers all, until tomorrow

3:27 pm

No sunning for me (redhead/ pale skin) and it's kinda yucky here, waiting for the rain. Hopefully it comes now so my daughter doesn't have to trick or treat in the rain.

3:28 pm

evanonut, my Boy is swedish--that's what the swedes say when they toast, apparently. I may not be spelling it right. if not, don't ever ever tell him I invoked the mother tongue incorrectly.

3:28 pm

good girl meisa, a credo my hubby should have followed.

3:28 pm

speaking of cocktails... this is the quietest, lonliest bar i've tended for awile... :)

3:29 pm

Hey GW - did you sleep well?

3:45 pm

business is slow... *sets up bar in tiki hut next to jacuzzi, along w/ portable kareoke, fog, and bubble machine*

3:46 pm

Hey MAMA, sorta. My daughter woke up calling my name at around 3:30 but before I could check on her she went back to sleep. But of course adrenalin prevented me from falling asleep for awhile

3:46 pm

Tbug- does this bar serve food, I am starved.

3:47 pm

How about you?

3:47 pm

Tbug - awesome... all we need is one of those little fire pits!!! let me test the water..... mamabear puts foot in jacuzzi and swishes it around..... awwwww... perfect... and almost full

3:48 pm

*puts out peanuts, pretzels, and cheezy poofs*

3:48 pm

Meisa actually it is at the top of the hill. I live in Pollock Pines now up by Lake Tahoe

3:48 pm

GW - slept restlessly - stayed home from work today. been babbling off and on ... how old is your daughter?

3:49 pm

I guess I should get some work done, (under extreme duress) since I am getting paid to sit here. My sales have been pretty low today and it's deadline day. Talk at you all later. Evanonut--HAPPY BIRTHDAY HAPPY BIRTHDAY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!

3:49 pm

3:53 pm

*lights fire... loses a couplea eyebrow hairs*

3:53 pm

Tbug - MALIBU????????????? You didn't tell me you had malibu - that's my favorite... pour me a large one please!!!!! mmmmmmmmm I'm gonna have to stay home from work more often!!!

3:54 pm

staying home from work is the sh*t.

3:54 pm

Okay... I'm ready for that pina colada now!!

3:54 pm

*hands mama large malibu and a microphone.. elvis song is playing softly in the background*

3:55 pm

*hands jera icy pina colada w/ a brightly colored toothpick umbrella

3:56 pm

Tbug - now you're starting to scare me - how do you know all my favorites??????

3:56 pm

staying home from work is only fun when it is by choice. I work for Lenscrafter's and they have started a new hours cutting protocol which is scaring all the staff. Even fulltimers like me have no guarantee of being scheduled iin a given week now

3:56 pm

Mama if you start dancing on the tables, we are going to have to question "legitimately ill"

3:57 pm

lol... dont know bout the elvis - have seen some malibu references in the past... elvis is just universal! :)

3:57 pm

I slip away for a moment and the malibu starts flowing...and cabin boys too....

3:57 pm

GW - that's not good. Seems like it's getting harder and harder to just work these days.

3:58 pm

Thanks, Tbug... settles in a corner with a cabin boy...

3:58 pm

Tbug - well it's nice of you to remember... if we can begin our Elvis tribute with "wise men say...." that would be divine.

3:58 pm

happy hour... still about 50 mins to go... free malibu n cokes..anyone????

3:59 pm

Oh yeah Schroeder - jacuzzi's full - come on in!!!! There's a cabin boy over there who isn't doing .... oops ..... someone just grabbed him.. I'll let you know when he's free!!! LOL

3:59 pm

You said it. But enough depressing thoughts. WE are here to BAbble and party. (Caps are courtesy of Kristianna)

3:59 pm

Set me up Tbug!

4:00 pm

absolutely *skips ahead to track 5... i cant help falling in love with you*

4:00 pm

That song always puts me to sleep & I have 29 more words to find... how about some Def Leppard?? *waves cd enticingly*

4:00 pm

*slides malibu down the bar to grey woulf*

4:00 pm

4:01 pm

Or for the country crowd, some Toby Keith

4:01 pm

Oh yeah, Babble, I must be getting back to it. too wrapped up in the party part... if I'm not careful I'll be struggling for my last word at midnite again (and from looking on the stats log I see my last word didn't make it this am!!! I am listed right under you, GW!!!)

4:01 pm

I only see 3 icons here... is everybody new or do I have something turned off??

4:01 pm

You were robbed, MAMA!

4:01 pm

GW - ahhhh Toby.... "if you kiss me like this,......."

4:02 pm

*lola sings* Pour some sugar on me! And hand me one of those free malibu and cokes will you?! :)

4:03 pm

4:03 pm

4:07 pm

4:07 pm

Chrissy, sorry total retard moment, don't have it either. Evanonut I could put it on a billboard and he still wouldn't have a clue. I told him this year I would just buy it myself and he could get a card. :0 We'll see.

4:14 pm

MAMA, I am up to 146. I got on a roll earlier and turned off the log to focus.

4:15 pm

4:16 pm

Hey, MamaBear. Pro doesn't give you any clues. But it gives you stats, where to find words, when you've completed a particular letter. And a nifty little profile!

9:00 pm

I didn't mean word clues, I meant clues on how to sign up!! And yes Schroeder, i did finish!!! 2 days in a row!!!!!!

9:01 pm

I notice most pros have icons, but you don't Charm - any reason?

9:03 pm

I want to upload a photo of the Monster Dog, but the hubby can't be bothered to help me. So, I'm basically sulking!

9:05 pm

9:31 pm

your missing sk is s + what santa leaves in your stocking if you're not good

9:32 pm

Mamabear, did you not indicate that you were a female on your profile?

9:32 pm

JW and mamabear - I just got it - thanks for all the help. mamabear - you look great!!!!

9:33 pm

mamabear! You grew an icon! Very nice!

9:33 pm

JW - I noticed that too - went back in - I forgot to check that little box now I have a pink purse too!!!!!

9:36 pm

thanks torgone - yeah, it's been 2 weeks - thought it was time to make myself legal.

9:38 pm

Hi all. I am not very good at this, but I keep coming back.

9:42 pm

eggtoni - there is no good, there is no bad in babbleonia. hey torgone - you missed a good party this afternoon!! I'm still cleaning up the bubble residue in the jacuzzi

9:43 pm

Mamabear, you have inspired me to try to get an icon too...still work in progress.

9:44 pm

Hello everyone! I'm back from jury duty. I only need one more. Any clues on sn 5/18? Pleeeeease?

9:44 pm

I always wanted to inspire someone!!! It's cute although I must admit I am not a cat person.... I can't decide if I'm happy with mine yet... such important decisions we face in life....

9:44 pm

sn 5/18 is a slithery thing.......

9:45 pm

Thank you mamabear!

9:46 pm

Heya eggtoni - As somebody once said: "The play's the thing." mamabear - I usually miss the party ..

9:47 pm

still have some leftovers - would you care for a slippery nipple or sex on the beach????

9:48 pm

Yes, and yes ..

9:48 pm

Always tryin to improve the vocab.

9:49 pm

mamabear pours 2 shotglasses for torgone..... *cheers*

9:49 pm

YUM! Slippery nipples!

9:50 pm

would you care for one eggtoni????? *mamabear pours another shotglass for eggtoni*

9:51 pm

That is one thing Babble will do: Fill your brain with a ton of arcane, obscure, and obsolete words you will NEVER use or even see in modern writing and conversation .. Yay Babble!

9:52 pm

Oh, you meant the drinks ...

9:53 pm

Thx Mama.

9:53 pm

feeling a little frisky my fang-ed friend?

9:53 pm

Thx Torgone.

9:54 pm

Always ..

9:54 pm

If things are always so "arcane and obscure", maybe that is why some of us are always doomed to be nothing more than mediocre!

9:55 pm

shall I refill the jacuzzi for a late nite dip?

9:56 pm

The fun thing about Babble is that you don't have to know the words .. Using the second letter/points list, you can monkey type letter combinations till a word pops up ..

9:56 pm

ceejai - mediocrity is allowed, not predestined

9:57 pm

To "jacuzzi" twice in one day - isn't that a bit like sloppy seconds?!

9:57 pm

I could SO use some hot tub time right now .. I feel like a stubbed toe ..

9:58 pm

ceejai - mamabear cleaned it up after last night free for all :)

9:59 pm

Believe me, this "monkey" has definately learned that trick - ever since I saw the term mentioned here some time ago! Love the phrase!

9:59 pm

Dianne- but of course - nice and sparkling with brand new bubbles. Oh, and I see you joined the pro ranks also!! More of my inspiration spilling forth?

10:00 pm

I'm missing 1 measly pi5/14 and feel like I've monkey typed everything, but have obviously missed it! Send a poor woman to sleep....any clues much appreciated.

10:00 pm

Eva - pi + a friend

10:00 pm

mamabear - I thought the stats list might help me since I'm Bab anon deprived. How do I get a pretty picture?

10:01 pm

Mamabear, we honored you since you had such a nice party for all.

10:01 pm

eva, I'm told it's a fig tree

10:01 pm

pi5/14 = "A fig tree (Ficus religiosa) native to India, having broadly ovate leaves with a long terminal projection. It is regarded as sacred by Buddhists. Also called bo tree"

10:01 pm

Thank you, thank you, Mamabear!!!!!

10:02 pm

Dianne - I got mine from Google Images.

10:02 pm

And everyone else! A fig tree. Who would have thunk it?

10:03 pm

JW - you are most kind *mamabear blushes and lowers head in humbleness*

10:07 pm

OK ... torgone or other knowledgeable pro - what can I do now that I couldn't do before besides my nifty stat list?

10:12 pm

never heard of tu/4 before

10:13 pm

You can bask in the self-satisfied glow of your own smug superiority .. OR, enjoy sharing personal info with other pro Babblers, OR feel happy you contributed the cost of a Happy Meal to keep our little time-waster alive ..

10:13 pm

I've never heard of half of the words in this game.

10:17 pm

can i have some help for fa 6/33 please?

10:17 pm

chiefexec - according to dictionary: To overturn. Often used with over: You're about to tump that thing over.

10:18 pm

fa6/33 = A dry measure in Spain and Spanish America, varying from 1? to 2? bushels; also, a measure of land.

10:18 pm

Hey Folks, Kristianna has gone to sleep and I am finish up and socialize

10:19 pm

I am back to finish... Boy, can you tell sleep dep is setting in?

10:19 pm

welcome back GW!!!! Need any help?

10:20 pm

Hey, MamaBear - like the cute icon!

10:21 pm

torgone - and where does this "sharing of personal information with other pro babblers" take place?

10:21 pm

Always... oh, you mean word wise. I have seven left. let's start with both sa 5's

10:21 pm

BTW, I love the new look, MAMA

10:23 pm

Sa 5/10 - think halo Sa 5/12 - think speak

10:23 pm

Sa5/10 - not a sinner but a *****. Sa5/12 - verb used often in the bible for speak; quoth the raven...

10:24 pm

Thanks Charm!!!! GW - thought you didn't notice!!!! I got my hair cut too - do you like it??? LOL now down to business - the sa 5's... sa*** - when someone dies who has lived a really good life they become one of these (so the story goes) the other sa 5 - if someone speaks in the Bible - this word is used

10:25 pm

Thank you Charm & Dianne, bloody obvious when the sign is there

10:25 pm

Yeah!!! Got 'em all!

10:25 pm

Now what kind of man would I be if I didn't notice the little things, MAMA?

10:26 pm

WTG Jammersbabe!!!!!!

10:26 pm

y/w. The fun, and self-satisfaction, really kick in when you get there without the signposts!

10:26 pm

GW - a typical one????

10:27 pm

Congrats Jammer!

10:27 pm

MamaBear, I was not going to touch that one!

10:27 pm

how many words are there?

10:28 pm

162 words

10:29 pm

mama - Should have said sharing personal info with EVERYbody .. Actually, the stats panel can save a lot of word counting, especially on big puzzles ..

10:30 pm

okie doke - actually the main thrill for me was choosing an icon!!!!!!!

10:31 pm

The real question is: What is the definition of typical? Actually, my next question is: help with the uh's, please?

10:32 pm

Uh5 - "One of a body of horse cavalry that formed part of the Polish, German, Austrian, and Russian armies." Uh6 - pl.

10:32 pm

uh's - uh + of **** and of sea.... except without the last consonant and then its plural

10:32 pm

I am so technaramous - I don't have the faintest idea how to get and place an icon - I can't even cut & paste!

10:33 pm

Diane - techna....... geeeezzzzzzzzzzz. that's like a te 12/6005 pointer!!!!

10:33 pm

Thanks again, MAMA I have one to go! I'm going to try to get it on my own before I ask again, tho

10:34 pm

mamabear - maybe it will be in the next puzzle.

10:34 pm

here if ya need me, GW

10:34 pm

Don't I know it ;)

10:35 pm

*wink*

10:37 pm

Hoody Hoo!! Three in a row complete!

10:38 pm

Grey - congrats - that's something I've never done!

10:38 pm

Way to go, GreyWoulf!

10:38 pm

WTG GW.. .... .... but now we are both finished.... what shall we do?

10:39 pm

Thanks, I owe it all to clean living and not so clean thinking

10:40 pm

Yay GreyWoulf!

10:40 pm

a good combination GW, doesn't get you in as much trouble as the other way around!!!

10:40 pm

Beware, GreyWoulf. Sounds as if MamaBear would like to lead you down a primrose path. I've always wondered what it is about primroses which make them so dangerous to virtue????

10:42 pm

Not me... this bear is harmless. but is known to give bear hugs on occasion.

10:42 pm

I think bec primroses want you to think they are all nice and proper (prim, if you will)... all the better to shred you with the thorns you don't see

10:42 pm

And this woulf is known to accept bearhugs on occasion

10:44 pm

Hey there. I am brandnew here....How is this game different from boggle?

10:44 pm

Nope, nope. Primroses don't have thorns. Gotta be some other, sinister, reason....

10:46 pm

wisedoggy - it's really pretty much the same as Boggle - you can click on the rules up at the top right hand corner

10:46 pm

well, wisedoggy, the key difference is that we all want to see each other finish the board. We are only truly scoring against ourselves, not others

10:46 pm

See, that's what the primroses WANT you to believe.

10:47 pm

I'm not sure I'm liking this being compared to a primrose stuff....... I am neither thorny nor sinister

10:48 pm

primroses have ulterior motives?

10:48 pm

Sorry, MAMA, just enjoying playing with someone else's mental blocks for achange. No insult intended

10:50 pm

No, no, MamaBear, not comparing you to anything. Just going where the stream of consciousness takes me....

10:50 pm

I understand GW...... My response to wisedoggy was more geared toward how to play rather than how to score. Your point was a very important difference that I overlooked......

10:51 pm

OK Charm... I wish I could help you get an icon up and running, it's a very easy thing to do, but rather difficult to explain in a chat log!!!!

10:52 pm

Not to worry, MamaBear. Not having an icon doesn't bug me in the least.

10:53 pm

I have the real answer re: primroses. Apparently, the primrose used to be a focus plant for lust/domination spells. Merely being in the presence of the flower while working a spell would allow one to dominate the will of their target. Thanks to my lady for the info.

10:54 pm

Thank you, GreyWoulf. That is worth learning!

10:54 pm

How do I get a bunch of them?

10:55 pm

GW - thanks for the non-puzzle related knowledge!! I did not know that - and I work in the flower industry!!!

10:56 pm

Now, now Dianne, you don't want to go there. By dominate, I mean TOTAL control. The object has no free will, and the bad karma you accumulate will bite you so hard, you will feel it for a looooong time.

10:57 pm

i'm getting better at this -- 126 words for the day

10:57 pm

great job, pbr

10:57 pm

excellent pbr!!!! need any help?

Uh6 - Uh plu word for earth/property and drop the last letter. Ti6 - what the Wonderbra was invented to do.

Mangaged to get most of the hints but uhhhh, no clue what these things are....:) This is fun. I willl come back when I am less tired. Screen swimming in front on my eyes doesn't help. 'night all.

11:16 pm

11:17 pm

okay, I have just noticed my typitis is going wonky... sorry I usually spell better than that.

11:17 pm

good nite wisedoggy!!! nice to meet you!!!

11:18 pm

I've made it to 130 -- that's all for tonight. Been playing this game about a week--it is rather addictive!!!

11:18 pm

fa5/16 is the fa4/7 you have with an extra E and the other 4/7 is the singular

11:19 pm

isn't though, pbr. I only found out about it a couple of days ago myself.

11:21 pm

night all, thanks for the help

11:21 pm

thanks GreyWoulf!

11:21 pm

G'night, arleneehm

11:21 pm

g'nite arlenee - sleep well

11:22 pm

GW - are you waiting around for the new grid?????

11:24 pm

Lucky, are you out there?

11:24 pm

so mama how'd the kareoke go? sorry i didnt make it back to give u a break...

11:24 pm

No, I'm hanging out right now to help out and enjoy the banter. But I have to get some real sleep tonight. I can only go with 3 hours or less for about 4 days before I become a danger to others.

11:26 pm

Tbug - it went well.. although my voice is rather hoarse for the wear..... but worth it!!!

11:26 pm

So, anybody need any help?

11:27 pm

My thoughts exactly GW, getting rather bleary eyed myself.

11:28 pm

I could use some clues for the kh's, since you're offering

11:28 pm

Well, MAMA, you said last night that these wee hours are not your typical hours of functionality.

11:29 pm

kh** - not a whole but split in 2 kh** - Gengis **** and the plural

11:30 pm

kh** - variant spelling for coffee stimulant

11:55 pm

which ko's do you have ??

11:55 pm

Usually it takes me a few hours to get it all. I do a bit in the morning, a bit in the afternoon, etc. Except when they are the short ones, around 50 words or so. Then I try knocking them out early, even if I'm bored the rest of the day! :)

11:55 pm

ko4 is a Buddhist Prayer ko5 is the plural

11:56 pm

Ko 5/18 is plural of Ko 4/8.

11:56 pm

I have all the ko's :oP You want definitions?

11:56 pm

ko 4 is also what you do when you have a cold - spelled weirdly

11:57 pm

BTW, nena, excellent work!

11:57 pm

ko 4/8 + ko + and take off the d for the 5 add an s

11:57 pm

I only have the ko that sounds like someone who is sick

11:58 pm

Ko 4/10. Alternate spelling for cough (think phonetically).

11:58 pm

mlk - follow TBug's clue and you'll have em

11:59 pm

In Hawaii there is an island called Ko**. Reverse the last 2 letters, then pluralize it.

11:59 pm

Ko4/8 - rhymes with the little thing you put a scoop of ice cream in.

11:59 pm

Sounds like Cohen.

11:59 pm

ko4/8 is not a payer but Buddhist teaching story ko + fan - the f

11:59 pm

ko 4/8 = ko + and take off the d for the 5 add an s

11:59 pm
