dayners, any clue for ta 6/39 pls?

3:40 am

ta6/39 - sounds like 'hilltop' + 'not wet'.

3:40 am

yup ta 6/39 is cheap, gaudy

3:44 am

thanks got it

4:01 am

Help! Monkey fingers have failed. Any clues for the o word please?

4:02 am

hydra, it rhymes with today

4:02 am

of4/9 - Think original actress in 'King Kong' or 'Bonnie' (Clyde's girl).

4:03 am

Doh! We had that one the other day, didn't we? I forgot. Many thanks, Jacula.

4:05 am

It's the 'ik' word that's got me puzzled.

4:06 am

jacula, its a kind of indonesian batik

4:06 am

It isn't the Swedish furniture company! LOL.

4:06 am

lol no jacula, its not THAT furniture company lol

4:08 am

Got it! Thanks Mica. Realised what it was when I picked up the cat food to feed the moggies. LOL.

4:14 am

Oooh, beautiful icons. Last night I couldn't acces the site for hours. Anyone else have trouble? This morning I can't seem to access my brain. Has anyone seen it. Do you know how to reload? Maybe some more sleep? Does one have to speal Welsh to solve this one?

4:15 am

lol jacula glad u got it but for the life of me i couldnt think of what triggered it off ;)

4:18 am

Well, that's me all done. Thanks for the help.:-) I'll be in and out for clue-giving. Eva - No Welsh today, but knowledge of India might be a help.;-)

4:19 am

Si6/21 & its plural. Only got this because I'm a knitter. Never knew that brand name stood for that. You learn something new every day.:-)

4:21 am

The si words are a revelation to me, as well!

4:22 am

Hi Haz. Glad it wasn't just me!

4:23 am

It had never occurred to me that it was anything other than someone's surname.

4:23 am

ah finished :) the si6 and 7 were my last words :)

4:24 am

Haz - There's often more to product names than we realise, especially old ones. 'Ambrosia' rice, for instance.

4:24 am

i think thism ust be my fastest puzzle ever... according to the log 2.51am tbear says hi to me, 4.23am i'm done! haha

4:24 am

Well done, mica!

4:24 am

Congrats, Mica. Thanks again for the help.

4:25 am

and i only used a2z for 10 words *phew* the babble board was kind to me today ehhe no prob jacula think i better skip off to study now :D last exam on thur!

4:25 am

Still on the subject of names - 'Argos'. 'A ship laden with treasure'. Branders are often quite clever.

4:26 am

Good luck, Mica! TTFN. I'm off to make fruit salad and a boozy fruit jelly, and to marzipan the Christmas cakes.

4:27 am

I'll probably sound a terrible snob, but a shipful of treasures wouldn't spring to mind with 'Argos'.

4:28 am

Haz - ROFLOL. You mean you're not looking forward to a sackful of Lizzie Duke bling off Santa? Tee, hee.

4:29 am

Funnily enough, my husband drew my attention to the TV advert for the jewellery, querying why you would buy jewellery from Argos. I sweetly informed him that it would be thrown at him if he ever did such a thing!

4:30 am

Time I was off for now. I need to give the 2 long-haired guinea pigs a hairdressing session before I start on the culinary creations. No, I'm NOT adding the piggies to the jelly! LOL. If you hear screaming it'll just be the piggies. They make a right fuss about having their lugs removed.

4:32 am

I've just received samples of Garnier Fructis Repair and Shine for dried out, rough, damaged hair. Would that help?

4:34 am

Haz - Well, they're both ladies and they love fruit. Thanks. I'll try it on them.:-))))

4:34 am

Bye, Jacula - I'm going as well to tackle the housework. See you all later.

5:08 am

jacula, love the image of you combing out your piggies! Does the hair rescuer really work? Could use some myself.

6:05 am

My goodness, don't think I have seen the log so quiet, everyone must just be enjoying the beauty of all the fractals!

6:06 am

How many words today please?

6:07 am

138 today

6:07 am

good morning all: grabbing the puzzle before work, always hard to go back after a mini break...

6:08 am

hi FMitch, speedfreak & mummy! trying to get what words i can... poo and i are going to tour her campus today and mustn't be ta5/16 :D

6:10 am

Love your icon Poos mom! and hi to you and speed.

6:11 am

Thx! I had lots of funny looking for fractals...then couldn't decide which one to use

6:12 am

Same here, so I decided togo for natures fractal - a snowflake :)

6:12 am

Thank you FMitch, I am only on 42 - one day I will get them all, but don't hold out much hope. I spend far too much time doing this and not enough doing the chores. I usually end up dashing into the kitchen half an hour before his lordship comes home to get a meal on the table....... wouldn't have time to go out to work!

6:13 am

You could have gone with broccoli or moss as well (who says babble isn't educational?)

6:13 am

I like mine :) fractal universe creation!

6:15 am

alice kelley, atalante? that's where mine is from...

6:15 am

mummy - I think you have just described the majority of players on here! and as with all things practice makes perfect (thats my excue and I am sticking to it)!!! Hi Atalante - love it!

6:15 am

Nope - from my own fair hand and a fractal programme I've got on my computer!

6:16 am

wow! very nice!!

6:16 am

Just had a call from a friend - inviting me out for coffee... sounds like a good excuse to leave this alone for a while.... see you all later...

6:17 am

bye mummy! i must get moving as well or we will be late..it's a two hour drive...first day of hunting season here as well so i'll have one eye on the road and one looking for bambi...

6:18 am

Bye, see you again soon!!!!

6:21 am

Atalante - have to ask, how come you have a fractal prog on yr pc? or should I go to the link in your profile?

6:23 am

Good morning everyone!

6:26 am

Hi mickey, hows the world and the grid treating your today?

6:35 am

Ooooh I have a few fractal progs - I went through a stage of being obsessed with making fractals about a year ago - the results = http://elegaer-too.deviantart. com/gallery/ There are quite a few fractal generators you can get free online, if you want to start playing around with them!

6:35 am

well, I have to say after looking this morning it has caught my interest :)

6:37 am

I will certainly have a look at your link too, but for now must tear myself away again. Made it to 89 words and will be back later!

6:37 am

If you're interested, I can give you the links for some, and more links to some tutorials for them :)

6:38 am

making fractals is wonderfully soothing somehow after a day's work! making swirly things!

6:38 am

oooo yes please!!!

6:39 am

Welcome, one and all 2 the wonderful world of Babbleland!!! Movieman here, just saying "hi" 2 everyone, and saying "good luck" in finishing 2day's puzzle...

6:39 am

send me an email through to atalante@f2s.com - and I'll send you back some of the coolest links and stuff :) then I won't spam the whole chat log talking about it here!

6:40 am

thanks, will do. hi movieman

6:43 am

just finished, a few nasty little words today good luck everyone

7:04 am

hi, Any clues for the py's. Hangover not helping!!!

7:06 am

py5/16 & its plural - Either of two isomeric compounds with the formula C5H6O, having a ring of five carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. (Think of Captain Hook or Blackbeard. Words sound a bit like what they are but end more like what Seb Coe did.)

7:07 am

I think I said earlier that is wasn't snowing here? It is now!

7:08 am

Thanks Jacula Have them now, i was in the right area!!!!

7:09 am

Glad to help, M3.

7:09 am

Ok off for a nap xx

7:13 am

Byeee. Zzzzz well.

7:34 am

mornin all! would todays theme be fractals?

7:35 am

whatever gave you that idea?? LOL Lovely aren't they?

7:38 am

anyone have a clue for the da6/33 please?

7:39 am

icon all updated. ill miss my earth faerie though!

7:41 am

Hey there 1 and all. I logged on, only to find movieman had my chosen icon. 1st come 1st serve...so I switched it around. I can't believe I can actually do that now, w/out breaking into a sweat or spending 2 hours messing it all up. Gramma's growing up!

7:42 am

hello all...gramma you look very anj today!!!

7:44 am

Oh no!...don't tell me [which really means, tell me] do I have the same 1 as anj?

7:45 am

nooooo i haven't seen him yet, i just know he likes that one, that was why i said it!!!!

7:48 am

Wheeew, I think I'll leave it. Did I mention, 1st come 1st serve? See Gramma's grown up; but, still very immature.

7:48 am

lol gramma

7:49 am

If you turn off the light--, you might be afraid of the da----! :(

7:49 am

morning~~

7:50 am

hiya judirae

7:51 am

Good morning, everyone! I'm having good luck with these w's today!

7:52 am

hi jera...yeah not a lot of odd words in this one, or the counts are odd enough that they can only be certain words...

7:53 am

Morning all! Did you all have a good weekend?

7:53 am

Was that X in yesterday's puzzle ever used? I had it when a high-value letter is wasted...

7:54 am

Hey, Jen! Is that your tree already up?

7:54 am

hey jen, yes and you... i know what you mean jera...it's like why even bother to put it in...

7:55 am

I don't have much time to play this morning... must get Gwyd off to school then do some work today... so I'm trying to be efficient... with some time for chatting, too!

7:55 am

Hey Jera and baggo! That's not this year's tree, but ours is up! We are headed to Florida for Christmas, so I wanted as much time with holiday decorations as possible! :)

7:56 am

multitasking seems to be the way of babblers around the world

7:58 am

We will probably shop for ours next weekend or the one after... I try to have everything arranged a week before the big day (which is early for me, December 21st). But we always get live trees & too much time in a warm dry house is not good for them...

7:59 am

We always go to georgia to visit my husband's folks for Christmas, so i know what you mean about enjoyment time before you leave...

7:59 am

We just have a little artificial tree this year since we are crammed into an apartment for the moment. Will start looking for a real house once I get a job. And then look out! Biggest tree I can find!

8:01 am

we were gonna get ours this weekend, but it just didn't work out that way, colts play tonight, so i don't think it will happen this evening either...but i want it soon so that we can enjoy it, i love that pine smell in the house..

8:04 am

Lots of nice places for sale out our way, Jen!! ;D

8:05 am

We did go ahead & decorate last year's tree, which is planted in our back yard, with deer treats & pine cone bird feeders... very cute!

8:05 am

Good Morning! I love everyone's fractals!

8:05 am

It's a little too far from Skip's work, otherwise we'd be looking there. We really want to stay in the Herndon/Reston area... but willing to go Ashburn/Leesburg.

8:05 am

put up most of my christmas decorations -- no tree at my house since its just me. but ihave a gorgeous wreath i made on the front door. i wrapped pine garland down both side of the handrails on my front steps. i also usually wrap white lights around the garland, and then irridescent white ribbon with gold trim around that. then each side gets a large matching bow at the bottom. (my lights decided not to work this year, so i only have the garland up at the moment.) then inside i have a large gold bow that goes at the base of the handrail for the stairs. a matching gold ribbon and gold beads wind their way up the handrail and a stocking for the cats hangs from that. :)

8:06 am

Where does he work, if I could be so nosey??

8:06 am

jera i think that's awesome...jen we call my brother skip, is that your husbands real name??? hi paperdoll

8:07 am

oooh evan that sounds nice

8:07 am

For a defense contractor in the Tyson's area.

8:07 am

thanks baggo! also forgot to mention white lights on the bushes out front. :)

8:08 am

baggo, no, it's not... his Dad was Navy (well, so was he) and he started calling him Skipper as a kid and Skip stuck.

8:08 am

I like white lights... much prettier than the gawdy colored ones... some people around here just get entirely too carriedaway. But then the only lights I have are tripple candles in the window so what do I know?

8:09 am

when i was a kid i hated white lights because they were so boring. but now i think theyre classy.

8:09 am

yeah skip isn't my brothers reall name either, but with a name like leland leonard, my mom just couldn't call a baby that.... evan i would love to put lights outside...never have

8:10 am

isn't it amazing how our views about things change as we get older????

8:10 am

FMitch Did you get the da word?

8:11 am

That's cute, Jen!

8:12 am

im sure my poor parents hated all the colored lights...but they suffered for the love of their children. ;)

8:12 am

The only colored lights we have are some red ones to look like berries on the bushes out front, everything else is white at my house too. But then again, we (meaning I) go a little non-traditional with colors... I use a deep red (almost garnet) and pine green instead of bright red and green.

8:13 am

I'm lucky my kid likes crafty stuff... somebody had a bunch of lights up the weekend before Thanksgiving & she "UGH-ed" them as we drove by... nothing so scathing as being UGH-ed by a tweenie girl...

8:13 am

lol jera...

8:15 am

yes, teens and tweens do have a certain special way of making you feel stupid, dont they? hehe

8:16 am

Especially when they add the eyeroll...

8:16 am

Hi conderella - sorry been away from the grid for a bit but am still stuck on that da6/33. Hi to all that have come in since last I was here and now I am off again.

8:16 am

ahh, cant wait for the day i have kids...hehe i take notes when dealing with my dance students...im making myself a handbook!

8:16 am

yeah that 6/33 has got me stumped too...

8:18 am

hi guys :o) da6/33 is an extension of da4/9

8:19 am

the di6 has no definition, but obviously you have the 1st 2 letters; then add your wa4/8, which means unnaturally pale or suggestive of illness.

8:19 am

FMitch Opposite of lightie is da----.

8:19 am

Oops, my bad! I thought it was the di, not da that was giving people problems.

8:20 am

hi bobsta!!!!!!!!!

8:20 am

da6/33 ... a disparaging term for a black person

8:20 am

yeah but thanks for that one too.... and cinderella got the da6...ty ty ty alll

8:20 am

hiya baggo ;o)

8:21 am

how are things????

8:21 am

i love trying to find images in fractals... baggos kinda looks like opposing dartboards...and bobstas kinda looks like lungs... hehe

8:21 am

.... smacks head with very wet fish of obviousness, thanks all.

8:22 am

That's a good idea, evan... you can never be too prepared... one good test is babysitting some really bad kids.. if you still want your own after that, you're ready, LOL! (even the worst kids have their moments)

8:22 am

ok my page hadn't refreshed and i still saw bobsta's cat and i thought how do you get lungs outta that...lol

8:23 am

fmitch...well toss the fish over this way when your done with it....8-/

8:23 am

hi evanadine: yeah i can see what you mean about my icon

8:24 am

lol baggo, it's on it's way over!

8:24 am

any hints on any of the 7s?

8:24 am

mine is called life vests....**catches fish and hits self with it***

8:25 am

to7/48 to go at something...

8:26 am

thanks baggo...i cant believe i didnt see that before!

8:26 am

si6/21 and si7/32 high ranking official, especially in india

8:26 am

si7/32 a person of high rank in india or another name for a sikh male. or the name of a make of knitting patterns!!!!!

8:27 am

Whoo-hoo, I remembered the of4 word from before!! yes, she can learn!!

8:27 am

Well, i have 40 to go... must go be productive a few hours... hopefully will be back later to finish before it gets too cold...

8:36 am

Off to the gym to work off some of Thanksgiving dinner. Talk to you guys later!

8:40 am

8:41 am

All done - 1682 pts today

8:42 am

cya jen... whoo hoo i'm done...off for a bit, shall return later...

8:43 am

WTG spelit and Baggo!!!!

8:43 am

Back for another go.Great clue Bobsta.Is it a hobby of yours?

8:45 am

Hi Mac. The 'si' is also a brand of wool.

8:46 am

Hi Jacula.Got the answer from Bobsta clue.

8:47 am

Thanks Jacula.I`m forgetting my manners.

8:47 am

TIP FOR THE DAY: Don't chop up oranges and grapefruits when you have a cut on your finger. OWWWW!!

8:48 am

hi Macadam, no honey i'm a Sikh myself but my mum'a a knitter!!!

8:49 am

nother tip: don't put your frying pan on a hot stove with butter in it...first time for me, but the whole pan was brimming with flames! yowch!

8:49 am

Daily hints .What joy.I already know not to use bleach on shower curtain hooks thanks to you.This is the learning zone indeed.:)

8:49 am

jacula/babs: ow ow ow ow!!!!!

8:51 am

just arrived. got two of the 7's, but can't figure the to7. What clues are about?

8:52 am

to7.opposite of away from

8:52 am

Ishhult - if you go in the direction of something you go to7 it.

8:53 am

was gonna give it a rest today. Very busy at work and I could use an early night. Got home and my 9 year old had typed in a word (bless him !!!!!!!!!!!) so it's play or ruin my stats. Mind you it was a good word for his second language.

8:54 am

ty

8:54 am

Got to leave you for a while, folks. My son woke up with the same bug as the one which laid me low yesterday. I'm going to boil him a couple of eggs.

8:54 am

Hi Ishult.My manners are dreadful this afternoon.thats the second time I`ve failed to acknowledge someone today.So Sorry :(

8:55 am

ishult...LOL :) Maybe it's time for your chld to have their own Babble account...uh-oh...early addictions!

8:55 am

Hope it`s a quick recovery Jacula.

8:58 am

i can think of worse vices (although not many)

9:18 am

I've zoomed around and done what needs to be done in the real world and now it seems that everyone has gone again???? Oh well only 12 words left to find......

A silly question, perhaps. This is my first time here. How does one know how many words there are to find?

9:26 am

138 words to find today.

9:26 am

Good morning everyone.

9:26 am

Hi 1st way is to ask - 138 today. and ask for clues and read back in the log if you can. 2nd you can go to babblers anonymous see link on right hand side and under general and then stats you will see all the stats for each days puzzle. Do look at babble rules too at the top of this page

9:26 am

Hi FMitch. I'm in and out from the kitchen. Need any clues for those 12?

Cool. 71 words in, then, but I have to grade papers soon!

9:27 am

Hi StillCrazy. Welcome to Babbleonia, InstructorJ.

9:27 am

Hi Jacula - still going ok but will shout if I do. Was wondering where Anj had got to seeing as it is fractal day?

Thanks, Jacula. I hope your son feels better soon.

9:28 am

Don't know where Anj., is FMitch. Will listen out for you.:-)

9:29 am

InstructorJ - you are doing well there! Cheers Jacula :)

9:31 am

looking in vain for the i word. only thing I found was ikea. didn't count , just made me want to go shopping!!

9:32 am

do we have a theme today?

9:32 am

Ishult.ik4 i with a feline

9:34 am

ty for the i, do you know what it means. might as well try and get an education?

9:35 am

Ishult - it's a style of Indonesian batik.

9:35 am

Ik4 is a fabric created by tie dye

9:36 am

should have known!!!!!

9:36 am

Hi ishult click on the ? next to the word for full def

9:37 am

why do that, when it's so much more fun to ask you guys

9:38 am

LOL so true, so true!!!

9:39 am

asked already, but do we have a theme today?

9:39 am

fractals is todays theme

9:40 am

Telling someone the meaning of a word should help me to remember it. What a shame the senior moments erase most of them.Still won`t stop trying though.

9:42 am

babbling every day should make words stick in the old grey matter but that doesn't always work either LOL

9:44 am

Good Morning, Babbleonia!

9:45 am

Hello Torgone.How are you and yours?

9:45 am

Hi everyone :) Is the fractals theme on today?

9:45 am

Greetings!

9:45 am

Hi Torgone. What a lovely fractal you have!

9:45 am

good evening torgone

9:45 am

Hi Miyavi.

9:46 am

Hey Macadam, nice icon :) How are you?

9:46 am

Hi, Miyavi.

9:46 am

Heya macadam! Fine and dandy. Back at work to rest up from the weekend.

9:46 am

Hi everyone!!!! :) Hey Big Guy ((((xxxx))))

9:47 am

Fine Miyavi.What no Japanese fractals!!!!

9:47 am

Hey Jacula :) Also nice icon! Sorry for any delays in replying to people today, I got whacked by a hockeystick and only my left hand is usable!

9:47 am

Hi there lotti and torgone!

9:47 am

Heyas Jac, Ishult! Heya hun! ((((((((((((((xxxxxxxxxx xxxXxxxxxxxxxxxx)))))))))))))) )))

9:48 am

What a surprise (laughing up sleeve)Hello Lotti ;)

9:48 am

Hey Lotti :) Macadam, will have to go and search! There must be one somewhere :D

9:48 am

Did ya sleep well!!!????

9:48 am

Hi, Lotti. Your fractal reminds me of the view the doctor getds when he asks someone to open wide & say 'Aah'. LOL. The middle bit looks like an uvula.

9:49 am

Mother i don`t know what you mean!!!!

9:49 am

Jacula, yours is gorgey. Reminds me of the Northern Lights :)

9:49 am

Sorry to hear that Miyavi.Hockey can be vicious.I was always goalie or left back.Got whacked a few times.

9:50 am

Miyavi. Oh dear! Ouch! It's usually the ankles you get whacked around at the bully-off.

9:50 am

Eeeewww Jac!!! It was totally different this morning, but i wanted girly pink..... Hi Miyavi :)

9:50 am

A new icon I see Lotti.

9:51 am

Thanks :) It's okayish now though, doesn't hurt unless I move it. Thumb has turned some mighty interesting colours though!

9:51 am

Hi Lotti and Miy. Lotti - liked the icon you had at the start of the day better.

9:51 am

Mac - Those are the two positions I used to play in the hockey team, too. That is, until I was playing one freezing Saturday morning against a particularly vicious team, my legs were blue and I thought, 'What am I DOING here??'

9:51 am

Fairly well, lotti. Well enough to function today.

9:51 am

Somewhat biological I think Lotti.

9:52 am

Thanks Fmitch, shall i change back then???

9:52 am

Miyavi - My fractal's entitled 'Black Holes'.

9:53 am

yes!! esp after what jacula said, my mind has boggled too far.

9:53 am

I frequently questioned being on the hockey pitch.I escaped though to do cross country.You wouldn`t believe it if you saw me now.

9:53 am

LOL, Torgone. Sorry Lotti!

9:53 am

Torgone, if it hadn`t been for that last snuggle you may not have slept half as well ;o) lol

9:54 am

FMitch - You need to be babbling, not boggling.:-) Mac - I don't do 'running'. LOL.

9:54 am

Lol Macadam! Okay, changed my icon now...don't feel so out of place

9:55 am

Oh yes that`s a beauty Miyavi .

9:55 am

Ooh nice, Miyavi. Distant galaxies.

9:56 am

Mine is back to being as in your face as i am!!!!!

9:56 am

Thanks :) Reminds me a little of an icon Lola used to have

9:56 am

Thats betterLotti.

9:56 am

Time I got back to the kitchen. See you in a while, folks. Happy Babbling. Just yell if you need any clues.x

9:56 am

10:16 am

*Waves back* Miyavi shout for nurse Baggo!!!!

10:17 am

Mum...you can`t spell either LOL !!!!

10:19 am

Surely Bubs can point the way Bobsta!!!!

10:19 am

Bobsta,you could stay on in your " advisory capacity"if this appeals.

10:20 am

mac - It'sa whata Luigi hasa on the end of hisa foota.

10:21 am

"poof" did someone call?

10:21 am

macadam: i think i'll have to that tonight, it won't be the same without puzzling over the words but the problem is that you get so addicted to the babbleverse that you have to be on here if the computer's on.

10:21 am

((((Baggo))))) Miyavi needs you :)

10:22 am

did she faint?

10:22 am

Love you Torgone.Now I`ve got the giggles :)

Mum, i`m not fighting you for him too!!!! *Back off*

10:23 am

Yes Baggo

10:23 am

now now can't have a family upset over torgone, so i'll make the sacrifice and take him off your hands...lol

10:24 am

Don't worry, I'm fine now :) Though thumb has turned an interesting shade of purple :D

10:25 am

Very true Bobsta.I`ve just had three weeks with little or no internet service and it`s been very frustrating.It`s so accurate when people say it`s addictive.

10:25 am

Oh no you won`t!!!! Torgone, they all want you!!! You make the choise (The greedy option, i know)

10:25 am

Lotti,I love a guy with a sense of humour.

10:31 am

'Bye Mac.

10:31 am

Baggo, they don't think I broke it, thank God :) The fainting was just because I go into shock really easily, and shortly afterwards I was whacked over the head with the same hockey stick. I think it was alive...

10:31 am

10:32 am

Shorty it sounds like you fit in well.We all complain about doing that.

1:14 pm

nice icon doll414

1:15 pm

Babbler - yes, I think I am. I just couldn't wait to start again today!! Lola-Hello Mya fan - okay, I am so curious - is your name a name of a group or is that your name. Hope that isn't too stupid of a question!! And what in the world did you do to yourself??

1:15 pm

i really need to start taking yoga or something...i get way too tense over little things. but really, this one is valid!

1:15 pm

hi doll414 :)

1:15 pm

Eva....i get that on occasion!!! The thing is you CAN choose your friends!!!!!

1:15 pm

thanks Hurshy just googled fractals and took the first one they showed

1:16 pm

You can also choose to slap them around when they need it.

1:16 pm

Hi Babbler

1:16 pm

eva, breath deep, take a long hard stare at my icon, and then think... flowers... pretty flowers... and then you will realize that I am just distracting you with men in underwear.

1:17 pm

ooh, im a fan of men. regardless of the underwear. ;D

1:17 pm

If you`re into that kind of thing babe!!!! ;) You can slap me......just don`t hurt me !!!! lol ((xx))

1:18 pm

coosin, I'm not angry or upset today....but can I try your therapy too?? :)

1:18 pm

Have yet another stupid question for anyone who can answer....How do you get an icon? Please put it in a 10 year old directions, as I am quite computer illiterate!! Thank you!!

1:19 pm

LOL

1:19 pm

sanky - you pay $9.95

1:19 pm

Sis did you get your mail, or are you just sick of me????!!!!

1:20 pm

gonna go take a quick walk to cool off...back in a bit! :D

1:20 pm

hurshy - I already paid that....then what?

1:20 pm

sanky, you have to go pro to get an icon. It's only £9.95, it's a one-off lifetime membership payment and you get a nice stats programme and a blog too :)

1:20 pm

ok so we went from love fest to slapping each other

1:20 pm

please try it, I recommend looking at him a LOT! I googled 'male faerie' yesterday and got him on the 'I feel lucky' button.

1:20 pm

Sanky, you can pay by paypal. Go to your upgrade icon thing (forget what it looks like now), follow the instructions, et voila!!! You're in! Should be instant. :D

1:20 pm

Ok Eva......see ya later! :)

1:21 pm

Ooops, sorry sis! *lola slinks off to check mail before lotti yells at her again* :D

Cool fractal theme, peeps!

1:21 pm

oh, ok sanky. you go to "my profile", and you edit your icon, and you have to upload a picture. you click browse, and you get the picture, and then you click upload and then refresh your browser and there you go. if you don't have any you can find something on the web, right click it, choose save image as and save it on your computer, then do all the prev. instructions

1:22 pm

Babbler - where do I find the 'upgrade icon'? I have already paid the $9.95 & filled everything out, (or so I thought)!!

1:22 pm

Sanky, now you can start your biog details...... To add an icon, go the Edit, under the blank box. Click on that, you'll see a new page, copy and paste whatever pic you'd like, they have to be jif or jpg (I think?? someone correct me pls?)

1:23 pm

Sanky - have you refreshed ? (F5 or your refresh icon)?

1:24 pm

Aww Sis...sorry if you thought i yelled!! :)

1:24 pm

have you been in My Profile yet, Sanky? (top of page)

1:25 pm

sanky - hope my instructions were clear...

1:26 pm

Babbler & Hurshy - Thank you so much for your help, I shall give it a try...I'd bet a million bucks, I won't be able to manage it, (that is IF I had a million bucks!!) but I'll give it a whirl to prove I am soo computer illiterate! Be back in a few... Thanks again.

1:27 pm

good afternoon all!!!!!

1:27 pm

no probs, Sanky, let us know if you need anything else, yeah?

1:27 pm

mamabear - your icon finding ability amazes me!

1:37 pm

1:37 pm

1:39 pm

hi ruff : )

1:40 pm

You got mail sis, that is if you and torgone can stop love-spanking long enough for you to check ;)

1:40 pm

w + noah's ship

1:41 pm

love your icon, Babbler!!! Miyavi... a sling?????? What happened to you??? Let me guess.... you had a run in with the wrong end of a hockey stick.... hurt your arm??? It's hard to type. so you don't have to go in detail. I just hope it's not too serious and you are not in pain.... poor dear.

1:41 pm

guys please explain me. what is wa? what is 4 and what is 12? What do they stand for? Thank you

1:42 pm

*makes Miya a lovely cup of tea, with biscuits too, and a couple of paracetamol for the pain* there you go, luvvie :D

1:42 pm

wa = first 2 letters first number = number of letters second number = number of points

1:42 pm

Yup! But not inn any pani, all drgged up :D

1:42 pm

thios - wa 4/8 for instance, would be a word that starts with wa, has 4 letters, and is worth 8 points

1:43 pm

wa - the word begins with these letters 4 - there are this many letters in the word 12 - the total score. you will find how to work out scores in the Rules, at the top of the page

1:43 pm

snap efor!

1:43 pm

Babbler & Hurshy - well? is there an icon with my name now? anything? I tried & tried.

1:53 pm

1:56 pm

1:56 pm

atalante - I think we had cats last Wednesday...

1:56 pm

1:57 pm

wahhhh! I must have missed that day! Yes - I did - I was in London *sigh* what about hamsters?

1:57 pm

Hi everyone! Today is my birthday, so have some cake! *passes around pieces of cake with ice cream*

1:57 pm

Or how about birds...(the feathered variety I mean...) lol

1:58 pm

ok, guys, Atalante has proposed Hamsters as a forthcoming icon theme. all in favour, say, Aye

1:58 pm

I had cats a while back, but the man in the cat detector van came and got rid of them, with the help of Confuse-A-Cat Ltd.

1:58 pm

Happy Birthday, Deutsch !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! : D

1:58 pm

Aye, but I also propose birds as well...

1:58 pm

many happy returns deutch XXX

1:58 pm

karen, I think that was the other clue but I don't get a lot of the brand name clues because I often haven't heard of them. It's amazing how many names one thing can have! :)

1:58 pm

Hpapy Bitrhday, Detusch!

1:59 pm

dachef - I turned 'pro' right away - about a month ago, today I finally figured out how to get the icon thingy. I tried to change mine, but for some reason it won't do it. Have a few moments before I must prepare a meal for the Ronald McDonald house families, so I gave up on trying to change the icon.

2:31 pm

Hi Sherb, Lotti, Miyavi : ) Congrats all recent finishers. Still a way to go here...

2:31 pm

Hi Lola,Anj and Lotti,you impatient bunny....don't do anything much in a hurry AND I'll need someone clever to tell me how to get a foto (not digital) onto my pc....

3:54 pm

Hi Cathb!

3:54 pm

3:54 pm

baggo what u call a getn with a marsha??? am i missing something here

3:54 pm

Speed take the s off your 4/4 and add a cheerleading word

3:54 pm

Hi Brandyjack!

3:55 pm

hi brandyjack!! (and I've read Lord of the Rings three times!!) :D

3:55 pm

speed how about an endearling term...da....ling

3:55 pm

Howdy sherry.

3:55 pm

Hi Sherry,babbler

3:55 pm

Hi brandyjack and cath

3:55 pm

any clue for the da6/33 please

3:55 pm

Go Doll : ) Babbler, it was weird. Everyone was standing around in suits trading words with each other, writing them down then giving them to a guy in a chef's hat in the corner who typed them into a PC. Yup, I'm in a heap of trouble here... : /

3:56 pm

my son is 10 and loved the hobbit, and they have these excellerated reader test that they take at school to make sure they get it and he aced the test...

3:56 pm

Hobbit was my limit. Lord of the rings should have been named Bored of the rings.

3:56 pm

LOL!!! mine was a crowd scene in a city, with cobblestones on the roads, and everyone was dashing around everywhere.......... next thing, I'm hitting 'Jump Up' in the chat log and jump up to the top of the grid!!! LOL!!! :D

3:56 pm

Loved the movies, loathed the books.

3:57 pm

Speed did that help?

3:57 pm

LOl CATH -a bit like brushing your teeth! Babble is a must before bed!!!! Anj I'm glad I'm not the onky one that dreams about babble! I'm a much better player when I'm sleeping too!!

3:57 pm

Drak is too a word.......

3:57 pm

Brandyjack, Bored Of the Rings IS a proper book!! Written by The Harvard Lampoon!!! (gottit, but not read it yet) :D

3:57 pm

any clues for da6/33

3:58 pm

LOL snowy...is that with your head on the keyboard!

3:58 pm

Ok I'm confused these clues baggo are for si words?

3:58 pm

e-gurl - expand on da4/9 .... disparaging term for a black person

3:58 pm

snowy whats onky?..is that something you wish to share with us

3:59 pm

Babbler, it's a bit overrated but still funny in parts : )

3:59 pm

I think I have found most words late at night just by bouncing my head off the keyboard...

3:59 pm

Yes CATH! Did it again yesterday too - and in the afternoon.

3:59 pm

speed - you said you have si 4/4 take away the last letter and add a cheerleading word for si 5/10 and the si 6/18 is the plural

4:00 pm

Anj, I must get round to it (along with a gazillion other books). I've also got a spoof Harry Potter, called Barry Trotter!!! LOL!! not read that yet, either..... :D

4:00 pm

LOL - no just frazzled, middle aged grandmother typing CATH!

4:00 pm

thanks so much

4:01 pm

my pleasure, e-gurl.

4:01 pm

Thanks doll414 Now the si6/21 and 7/32 please

4:01 pm

Has anyone read any Tim Holt books? Thought they were a bit like grown up Harry Potter.

4:02 pm

si 6/21 and 7 an important person in india...

4:02 pm

Snowy?? Tom Holt?? Paint Your Dragon? Falling Sideways? Expecting Someone Taller etc???

4:02 pm

Good evening, folks... how goes the Babble battle?

4:03 pm

Hi Jera!!

4:03 pm

Thats him Anj i think! lol Wizardy stuff?

4:03 pm

speed - once again take the last letter off your 4/4 and then use the clue that baggo gave you earlier for the si 6/21 and the 7/32 is the plural

4:03 pm

Hi Jera, tim holt? Sounds interesting. thanks for the tip!

4:03 pm

hi Jera : )

4:04 pm

Faeries & fractals, what a heady mix!

4:04 pm

Hi Jera

4:04 pm

Hi Jera

4:04 pm

4:04 pm

Hi Jera

4:06 pm

So what is the theme for tomorrow, has it been decided?

4:06 pm

hi Sherry, it's all in my biog........ Cartoons tomorrow! : D

4:06 pm

Sherry... GMTA! (great minds think alike)

4:06 pm

Snowy, he does all sorts of weird stuff. Quite a bit of it has been mythology-related funniness, like Grailblazers

4:07 pm

Jera: lol! Ok Babbler! Cartoons! See ya tomorrow then!

4:07 pm

alright, well shoot me a title of a good one!!!

4:07 pm

4:09 pm

Last question Babbler: cartoons like Merry Melodies thingies?

4:09 pm

Oh wow, all the faeries disappeared! I guess returning from reading Babbler's bio refreshed... kinda sad...

4:10 pm

Sherry - I suppose............. but then again, could be anything, couldn't it?? Someone suggested Toons last week. : )

4:10 pm

Thank you for your patience and help Baggo and Doll414 must be a Monday, I hit myself with the fish!!

4:11 pm

Ok! I'm really gone now! lol!

4:12 pm

Bye Sherry... sweet dreams!

4:13 pm

Tom Holt - Middle aged women always get names wrong! I've read - In Your Dreams, The Portable Door and Earth,Air, Fire & Custard. Weird but I did enjoy them all. Haven't read anything else by him

4:13 pm

I know who I'm gonna be tomorrow... my favorite is Marvin the Martian!

4:13 pm

lol snowy!! no wonder I couldn't find Tim Holt in Amazon........ ; )

4:14 pm

4:15 pm

Schroeder - as any Turkey day should be...had fun with the inlaws & ate too much!!

4:21 pm

snowy little people it looks like on amazon is tom holts new book...do you have to read them in any particular order?

4:21 pm

Was there something specific I could help with Baggo?

4:21 pm

OK that would be kind of you..I am ready now if you are??

4:21 pm

Babbler - I am now in the 'loop'. Thank you.

4:22 pm

4:23 pm

Baggo, I only read 3 The order they were published was 1 The Portable door 2 In Your Dreams 3 Earth,Air, Fire and Custard I wouldn't call them science fiction, which is not my thing at all, but I enjoyed them all

4:28 pm

y/w KnightRider........cool name btw! : )

4:29 pm

babblr..filled in the form with Optional bio stuff..but won't it all disappear after I closed window and came back here? We'll see when you tell me what to do next?

helen - I can see your flag!

4:29 pm

OK got the flag..yay

4:29 pm

babbler, my nickname is KIT so i thought the car would be appropriate

4:30 pm

helen you got a flag....now get your purse

if you want your other 'bio' info to show - you have to click on 'show profile'...that way your person (or handbag as Babs calls it) will show....

4:30 pm

helen, I can see your flag, but not your handbag. Make sure you use the green text 'Return to Today's Puzzle' when you exit. You can go back into My Profile and add/amend as often as you wish. ready for icons?

4:30 pm

LOL KnightRider!!! :D

4:30 pm

speedfreak - I am from Lansing Michigan.

4:37 pm

deutsch are you going to be the zebra from madagascar? and did anyone notice that the new orleans zoo opened over the weekend? they only lost 2 animals. they decided not to pen them up, they kept the gates in their pens open and let them make the choice...sounds like a good one to me

it might have been better that I wasn't there...putting a word in the log & all ; )

baggo - excellent suggestion for Deutsch!

4:38 pm

good idea, baggo. And Yes, I was happy about the N O zoo!

4:38 pm

I saw that on the news baggo, they had a big turn out for the opening day.

4:39 pm

I do that..hit green "return to today puzzle" but what I notice evertime I go back to that window the tick disappears and I have to tick it again.

4:39 pm

Thanks Baggo and Babbler. Done with the Ds.

4:40 pm

hmmmm, I'm puzzled, helen, maybe it's just a glitch in the matrix today? let's leave it for later and get on to icons!!!

4:40 pm

ready for the icon

4:41 pm

very welcome minski... i just found my icon there are a bunch of bags on a page with looney toons characters on them....a bag o cartoons...lol

4:41 pm

I haven't seen the movie yet, but is the zebra's name Marty? I think I found him.

4:42 pm

yep

4:42 pm

ok ,what I do is open another window, go to Google (www.google.com), go to Images, find the image I want, copy it.... then go back to My Profile in the other window, click on Edit (under the white box top right), then paste in the first search bar. you can also browse in the second search bar, but I cant' figure that out myself! : D If your icon is not accepted, it will say, not to worry, just go back and pick something else.

4:42 pm

on google images put in marty zebra

4:43 pm

I'm ready for Tuesday toons!

4:43 pm

4:56 pm

Sanky: See u tomorrow:)) Happy night Sweet Dreams

4:57 pm

helen, I don't save to desktop, I just copy the address, paste it in the box that starts http (deleting that first), then hit Enter. If you refresh, you should be able to see your icon..... Anj, you have any advice for helen?

4:57 pm

later days, sanky!

4:57 pm

Bye Sanky!!!

bye Sanky! helenary - when you 'upload' it - it will automnatically 'shrink' to fit the box....

4:58 pm

I'm getting excited for Helen....she's almost there!!!

4:58 pm

kelstar: sa6/18 - One of the large sandstone blocks scattered over the English chalk downs (or a brand of vinegar in the UK)

4:59 pm

thanks Bab..I'll just fiddle around..realize its not a world shattering event ..at least I have an national and sexual identity showing!!

4:59 pm

three aspirin would be one too many, wouldn't it?? tsk tsk

5:00 pm

wanna bet, helenary?? a few of us can't wait to see your icon!! LOL :D

5:00 pm

helenary, save the image to your C: drive (I think the default may be 'My Documents') and then browse to that when you're in your profile : )

helenary - Click on "edit image" Click on 'browse' Find your desktop Click on your image & click 'open' Click on 'upload' button Refresh "Go back to today's puzzle"

5:00 pm

I think I see Sakagawea in here.....Maybe not. Hi everybody! Anj, I hope you are enjoying your icon of the day salute! You are indeed a charmingly dominant personality in our eccentric little universe here.

5:00 pm

btw..What are "English chalk downs"?

hi mab! pretty fractal!

5:01 pm

(saved by Anj and EB) hi Mab! very well put! hear hear!

5:01 pm

Thanks, Babbler!

5:03 pm

just putting the kettle on............ be right back......

5:04 pm

yes yes, Anj, I know........ it won't suit me....... LOL (beat you to it!) :D

5:06 pm

Hi babbler! This is how I have learned to capture image using microsoft: I right click on the image, which produces a list of options. Of these, I pick 'save this picture'. Magically, I find myself in the smarmily named 'My Pictures' where I give it a name and click 'save'. As for copywright issues, I ignore them.

5:06 pm

Hi Mab : ) I've never been described as charmingly dominant before. Maybe I should be mixing it in the world of Merchant Ivory. It's amazing what can be done to a whalebone corset with just a twinkle in the eye LOL! : )

5:07 pm

Babbler, it wouldn't go with your boots... ; )

mab - you rebel!

5:08 pm

you can also right click on an image and save to a new window....then cut and paste the url into your babble bar...da --dah!!

5:10 pm

Yes, I'm one to run fast and loose with the law. Killed a man in Minnesota just because he had a facial tic that annoyed me (I'm lying). Ok. The grid.

mab - you crack me up...where in MA are you??

5:13 pm

Anj, *groan* : ) didn't think of that!

5:13 pm

can anyone please give me a clue for ik 4/8

5:14 pm

ruthy: i + (feline)

5:14 pm

i think I am in business...

5:15 pm

Wow!! are you ever, helenary!!! Welcome to Pro !!!!!!!! :D

5:15 pm

helenary - you look just great!!!

helenary - be yoo tee ful!!

5:16 pm

Easter, I am in lovely western Mass. I hate it here, as I am a city person. I hope someday to get back to DC.

5:16 pm

what movies has your son, made, helen? will I know them?

5:16 pm

9:16 pm

ricker - have you been shown how to get the 2 letter list from Babblers Anon?

Ricker- some are words pulled from other languages but commonly used...there's some dictionary that this thing is tied to (and it's too late for me to remember the name right now...) but if it's in there, it'll be in the grid : )

9:17 pm

MamaB, my ? is slow, and sometimes needs to be clicked twice. I thought my system was just slow tonight.

9:17 pm

*mamabear goes to the fr 4/9 and gets a nice cold haddock to give to shorty - "thwack"*

9:20 pm

Need help with to 6/ 33 to 7/ 48 to 5/ 18 thanks,

9:20 pm

Ricker - over on the right there is a "Friends of Babble" box. The last link is Babblers Anonymous. Click on that - then click on General, then on Daily Puzzle. Scroll down and there is a list of all the words in the puzzle by first 2 letters, letter count and point value. Many babblers copy and paste this list into a word doc or Excel and print it to keep track as you work the puzzle. Also, if you go "pro" (only $9.95 for a lifetime membership) you will have access to more detailed stats for your progress.

9:21 pm

ra 5/10 is plural of ra 4/4

9:21 pm

to6/33 - face front & go to**** the light, my son. to7 is pl.

9:24 pm

9:25 pm

no problem ricker!!!! Have you been introduced to a2z?

9:27 pm

why, no I haven't

9:28 pm

there's a website: www.a2zwordfinder.com - check it out. You can enter the first 2 letters of the word you need and it will give you lists of words with 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 etc letter words. it is helpful - especially with a puzzle like today's where there's so many ummm.... "unusual" words.

thanks charm... *sheepish grin* thought i'd tried that already!!

9:30 pm

that will be very helpful as well. Is this puzzel a little tougher than usual? Or does it just have a lot of uncommon words?

9:31 pm

it is both, ricker!!! tough and uncommon.. a rough one to start out with.. but you will become addicted like the rest of us!! You cannot fight it....

9:31 pm

na 5/10? I agree, the dictionary link is broken tonight. Or, the dictionary web site is down. So we don't get to find out what all these unusual words mean.

9:32 pm

well then i guess 79 isn't so bad to have so far...

9:32 pm

Um, exactly what IS a fractal, anyway? My niece teaches math. Don't tell her I asked.

Ricker...I find that i can go great guns for the first 1/2 of the words (or so), and then the rest I get through clues or a2z...most of those I've never heard of!!

9:32 pm

any clue on theof wordword

9:32 pm

this is the website for the Enable Dictionary: http://www.photos phere.us/gj_babble_db.txt

9:33 pm

oops

9:33 pm

If you saw the actress, Ms. Dunaway, you might say, "of4"

9:34 pm

of4/9 - offensive slang: "Used as a disparaging term for a white person." NOT common in the US. O + F** (girl of King Kong).

9:34 pm

Thanks Charm, Easternblue, MamaBear, and anyone else who I missed.

9:35 pm

of + first vowel and a 3 letter tile

9:35 pm

mama...bears are supposed to hibernate for the whole winter....no wonder you're sleepy : D

9:37 pm

Hi everyone. MamaBear I am amazed that you found a bear fractal! It is a fractal, isn't it? Its adorable.

9:37 pm

9:37 pm

EB - LOL!!! fine with me!! I would just crawl in under my electric blanket, set it on 4 and "see ya in the spring"

9:38 pm

yes it is, mab!!! Isn't he cute? I was surprised myself!

9:38 pm

na 5/10?

9:39 pm

Well, ricker, I don't know if you are a night owl or not, but the puzzle ends at midnite our time (I am in Chicago).. so if you feel so inclined to "watch the ball drop" some night, that's when that even occurs!

9:39 pm

missing a da 4/5...one of the last two, I think..

this was one I couldn't draw...not sure what I'll do for tomorrow (if i'll draw it or post an actual...)

9:39 pm

da 4/5 - do you have the pointy object you throw at a bullseye?

9:40 pm

tr 5/10? I have the one that means "across"

9:40 pm

Also, missing one of the first two na 4/5's

9:40 pm

si7?

9:40 pm

na5, harpjane, rhymes with the name harris, but you will drop one consonant. Sorry, no idea on def.

9:40 pm

na 5/10 rhymes with Paris

9:40 pm

na5/10 - a nostril.

9:40 pm

Yes..got the pointy and the yarn...

Harp...off the top of my head.... A fractal is an object or quantity that displays self-similarity, in a somewhat technical sense, on all scales. The object need not exhibit exactly the same structure at all scales, but the same "type" of structures must appear on all scales. A plot of the quantity on a log-log graph versus scale then gives a straight line, whose slope is said to be the fractal dimension. The prototypical example for a fractal is the length of a coastline measured with different length rulers. The shorter the ruler, the longer the length measured, a paradox known as the coastline paradox.

9:41 pm

si 7 is plural of si 6/21

9:42 pm

EB...that was an enlightening brainful! Have to chew on that one for awhile! Thanks!

9:42 pm

That was "off the top of your head" EB????? Geezzzzz...

harpjane - my summary: funky pictures with wavy colors : D

9:43 pm

geez, EB, where'd you copy that info from?

9:43 pm

Eastern--Thanks, I think. That's about how my niece explains it. I nod politely, and think to myself, "ok so it's a pretty design, huh?"

*confession* I pulled it from the web....

9:44 pm

a-HA!

9:44 pm

9:46 pm

Babs - it's SOO exciting when a Babble virgin loses their cherry, so to speak!!!!! One night in a smaller easier grid, there were 10 all in that night!!!!

9:47 pm

what is tomorrow's theme? Is it cartoons?????

mama - it is indeed cartoons...

9:47 pm

There is a theme to this??

9:48 pm

I always thought that fractals were just a graphic representation of a system of iterative functions - in other words, a pretty picture created by an equation that keeps repeating itself. Of course, I reserve the right to be wrong.

9:48 pm

not the the puzzle, Ricker, we sometimes pick themes for the icons. Like today's was fractals. Yesterday was faeries.... we make our own fun in Babbleonia!!!

Ricker...when you are "pro" you can add a picture icon...one of our fellow babblers (aptly named Babbler) has been adding an icon theme of the day to her bio...today was fractals - tomorrow is cartoons...

9:49 pm

DONE!!! DONE!!! Doing a babbliciously finished dance.

9:49 pm

aaaaaagh! omigod, somebody gets it!!!! yes!!!!!!!!!! Lambic for the beer Korbel for the champagne Pimms for the...uh...well, it's a Brit drink

10:30 pm

Hi stillcrazy

10:30 pm

si6/18 plural of si5/10

Figured out the sa6 based on your fire clue thanks now for the si I don't understand the high ranking person from India

Si6: polite greeting for a gent + "there" in pirate jargon...

10:31 pm

ruff - nuthin' better than a framboise lambic... (I thought it might be with the other drinks listed too)

Unfortunately I don't have the si5/10 either

10:31 pm

hi still crazy

10:31 pm

I'm more of a kriek lambic fan, but they're all good.

10:32 pm

(ruff does the snoopy happy dance at the thought of not having to explain her dog's name...for once)

10:32 pm

ruff - either one...with a molten chocolate cake - HEAVEN!!

10:32 pm

kinda like treasure of the si**** madre - e

10:33 pm

si4/4(polite for man) double the con and add a vowel before the s si6/18 drop s si 5/10

10:33 pm

ruff - the CB theme song - just for you... da da da da da da daah dum...da de dum...(bum bum bum ba bum bum)

Which Si6 do you need? The Si5 almost sounds like a misspelled wine and is also a greeting for a gent... si6 is the plural of that...

10:34 pm

10:34 pm

So, do you think I'll throw people off by not sticking with my woulf imagery? Green Lantern is my fav superhero of all time! Though I much prefer Hal Jordan over John Stewart who is the one they chose to animate :)

11:19 pm

Thanks! This is the top of a Christmas elf my daughter drew when she was 12 or 13...14 now...it's always great to see what comes out of her creative brain...most of her work doesn't work well as a teeny icon...

11:19 pm

ren- is that a fairytopia barbie

11:20 pm

babs- your daughter is very talented

11:20 pm

no - princess and the pauper - wolfie - i think green lanter is great!

11:21 pm

gw- there was a cartoon wolf- it think his name was wolfie, but it's always good to mix it up

11:21 pm

Thanks, beebee! We're not gene related, so it didn't come from me...we adopted her as an infant from Colombia...we're looking for an art mentor for her these days..

11:22 pm

babs- she can make a lot of money in the anime world.

11:24 pm

maybe...and she has a lot of different directions she could go...just wanting her to explore lots of media forms --she likes designing costumes and does some really clever comic strips...

11:24 pm

37 mins- does anyone need clues?

11:25 pm

OK - I found an animated Hal jordan image that I like much better -- I keep forgetting about the original superfriends cartoon :D beebee - I thought about the cartoon woulf thing, but I decide to embrace the change ;) Though I did seriously consider using the werewolf from Drac Pack (if you remember that series)

11:25 pm

I think peeps are snoozin? not babbling, beebee

11:26 pm

babs- how wonderful for her- her future is very bright. i have no artistic talent- i'm so jealous
