A 54 chevy custom convertible seems to have no back tires, but I don't think that was part of the customization.

Ok. Before I leap onto some other topic, I should start thinking about sleeping. Oh, I would love to have the Sirius music; we don't get any jazz stations out here, just 8-midnight five nights a week on public radio.

good morning everyone! I keep googling the light carriage and coming up with a ca word that isn't in the grid. I think I've tried the obvious alternate spellings, but have gotten nowhere. Also, could I have a clue for the c7/32? Have the other c7/40. Thanks!

5:51 am

Eva

found it and the related h7/32. If I hadn't asked for help I wouldn't have seen it.

5:53 am

Angelsong

eva, c7/32 is a plural of the c6 just before it. c + reindeer horns - r for the 6.

5:54 am

Eva

6:02 am

Eva

6:04 am

Angelsong

Eva

Mucho gracias!

6:05 am

sprite

Atalante: for when you get back, I have two links for you. Just remove the spaces, go to the picture and "save picture as". Then you can use them on your current laptop ;)

7:02 am

hurshy

i hate insomnia.

7:02 am

Blaze

7:05 am

GreyWoulf

Sleep? what's that? --- lately I seem to be having random periods of blankness surrounded by working or baby care ;)

7:06 am

Blaze

7:07 am

Miyavi_fan

7:07 am

hootowl

Morning woulf & everyone else. * hrs sleep? Whats that? Never done it in my whole life!

7:08 am

GreyWoulf

Morning everyone!

All are doing well here, though I have had maybe 5 1/2 hours sleep in the past 3 days -- so I've been a bit cranky :)

Seb is now on nebuliser treatments every 8 hours so he should be fully recovered within the next week or so (Yay!)

7:08 am

hootowl

Sorry - 8 hrs

7:09 am

Blaze

Miyavi_fan long time no see how are you??

7:09 am

GreyWoulf

((((***Miyavi***)))) --- how are you doing? I haven't seen you in, like, forever!! My timing just doesn't sync with you anymore :(

7:10 am

LEMONed

woo, what a welcome! I'm great thanks Blaze, how are you?

Wooooulf! *hugs* it seems whenever I come on and scroll down the blog, you'll have said bye just a few posts ago!

7:10 am

GreyWoulf

Hey Mom ((**HUG**))

and speaking of his meds, I will have to administer them around 8:30 so I only have a short time right now

(stealing a few mins after the early morning feeding and change ;) )

7:11 am

Miyavi_fan

waaaah, sorry, error there...I was signed in as someone else! (long story!) LEMONed couldn't get his chat log working, so I signed in as him and fixed it *pride*

7:11 am

Miyavi_fan

(same message intended though...^^;)

7:11 am

hootowl

Are you working 7 days a week now? Crazy!!

7:12 am

GreyWoulf

LEMONed -- that's the story of my (web) life these days -- the new job combined with new son don't give me the freedom or energy to stick around :\

7:12 am

caitlyn

Hi Miyavi Hi LEMONed and anyone i have missed

7:13 am

Angelsong

has anyone seen Mamahear lately?

7:14 am

Miyavi_fan

hmm...that was a bit strange, now I'm very confused. To clarify, that message wasn't from LEMONed...that was from me! o_O

7:14 am

GreyWoulf

Thought so, Miy ;)

hoot -- no, I am off for the weekend --- I am trying to give Lenscrafter's one day on the weekend so I can have the second job that pays as much as my primary so I can finally get some bills paid off -- but they cut my shift due to lack of sales today --- I am going to try for a nap later :)

7:15 am

hootowl

That's THIS weekend. What about the rest?

7:15 am

GreyWoulf

Angel -- Mama has been spending her time playing Literati, though she did make an appearance last night when I told her torgone was around :)

7:16 am

Angelsong

GW, did she say anthing aobut her new resource page?

7:16 am

Miyavi_fan

lol...it's way too early for this!

7:16 am

GreyWoulf

only 143 today, huh? -- I may actually finish this one -- I fell asleep with over 80 left to find last night :(

7:17 am

GreyWoulf

Angel -- no she didn't, sorry!

7:18 am

Boysaway

ce4/5 anyone, not the Scottish one

7:20 am

Angelsong

ce4/5 used by animators

7:20 am

Angelsong

GW, your resource page is next up

7:21 am

Blaze

what we call our mobiles..... less on letter

7:21 am

Boysaway

Thanks Angelsong.
Miyavi, Hi, did you blow your cover?

7:23 am

Boysaway

Thanks Blaze

7:23 am

Miyavi_fan

lol Boysaway...I met LEMONed here yesterday :) After some problems a couple of days ago, he was having some problems with his chat log box...somehow I managed to fix them (HOW???), then got confused about which account I was logged into!

7:25 am

Boysaway

Miyavi, I believe you. But I did think LEMONed's turn of phrase was a little contrived. lol.

7:26 am

Miyavi_fan

lol Boys! ^^

7:28 am

Boysaway

Miyavi, if you remember I was always suspicious about your age as well. I'm a Northern Girl, we can't help it!

7:29 am

Miyavi_fan

lol...well, I'd like to be as good as speaking Japanese as he is! *I wish*

7:30 am

Boysaway

I'm sure you are, Miyavi-san!

7:31 am

Miyavi_fan

er, er...hai? *hopeful grin*

hmmm...doing checks on wordfinder, but, no matter how many times I try, thalassocracies is just NOT in there...

7:31 am

GreyWoulf

Miy -- have you seen the pics of my son, Sebastian?

7:32 am

Miyavi_fan

Woulf, no, but I'd like to! May I? *bats eyelashes*

7:35 am

GreyWoulf

Sure thing, Miy -- easiest way to do so is to go to BabAnon -- under Meet and Greet I started a thread - "Thank you all for your love and support" --- Swmbo set up a Birth Announcement page for me, (bless her so very much!) -- I am working on getting some more but have been distracted the past week :)

7:37 am

Miyavi_fan

*pootles off to BabAnon* thanks Woulf! and congratulations! :)

7:39 am

Angelsong

GW, if you should see a new player named Johnson, say hi. She is my daughter and the most terrific mom to my grandson, who will be 2 on Tuesday.

7:42 am

GreyWoulf

Angel -- I will keep an eye out :)

But right now I have to give Seb his meds -- will try to be back in about 15 mins or so

7:42 am

Miyavi_fan

Woulf, he is gorgeous! so tiny! *goes all mushy*

7:45 am

Jera

Greetings and salutations, fellow Babblers... how goes the battle??

7:46 am

Blaze

greetings jera.... it is a steady go....

7:47 am

Jera

That X makes for some wonderful words, doesn't it?

7:47 am

Miyavi_fan

yaaa...I have to go, when Woulf gets back tell him his son is goooorgeous!!! <3 laters!

7:47 am

Angelsong

jera, not bad. I've givem more clues today than I've asked for, which is a nice change.

7:48 am

Jera

*waves bye to Miya*

7:55 am

8:00 am

GreyWoulf

8:08 am

GreyWoulf

Great job, Blaze! -- see you later (*Hug*)

8:22 am

pbr

good morning all -- not been active this week--family was visiting --I am ready to get back to routine--let's see how I do with the grid today.

8:33 am

Jera

Hye, all... I'm back! Got sidetracked getting the littlies started on their day...

8:40 am

Jera

Everyone must be deep in the grid, warai!

8:44 am

evanonut

deep
in
grid

8:48 am

amandacath

Hi all! I'm stuck on the al7 - pleeeeese help! It's driving me crazy!

8:49 am

FMitch

I've just popped back for 5 mins - how's everyone getting on?

al7 - think turning base metal to gold!

8:50 am

amandacath

Aaarrgh! Thanks, FMitch! I was desperately trying to fit the x into it!

8:50 am

Jera

Hey FMitch... howzit going today?

8:51 am

Jera

I'm sooooo glad I worked backwards today, i would have gotten very discouraged trying to do those A's first!

8:52 am

FMitch

y/w amanda.

Hi ya Jera, good thanks, the sun is shining although cold and have finished the grid. Finished some work so through I would pop back and see who is about.

8:53 am

bex777

im having trouble today any body help with the et 4 letters!?

8:54 am

amandacath

bex - you do it to glass

8:56 am

Jera

I finished early as well... weekends can be crazy around here! Not as crazy as Thursdays, though, so of course we had a huge honkin' grid that I was unable to complete then...

8:57 am

FMitch

LOL Jera - I didn't even attempt to start that one as I knew I would never finish and loose patience 1/2 way through! Enjoyed todays though.

8:58 am

Jera

et = say you have allergies, which makes your eyes & nose it**... now trade the i for an e & you have et4

8:59 am

Jera

I always think I'll have enough time... the grid sucks me in... especially since Wednesday's was so small. I spent soooo much time chatting Wednesday, which was fun! But if I had been doing my work & wouldn't have had to do it all Thursday, I could have finished Thursday's grid...

Did that make sense??

9:00 am

hydra

Can anyone help with the ce4/5 words?I have the one meaning a British tribe. What's the other?

9:01 am

FMitch

yes that does make sense!! :)

9:02 am

FMitch

c4/5 take the one you have, knock off the last letter and pl.

9:03 am

hydra

Thanks, FMitch. Got it!

9:03 am

Jera

FMitch = faster & gives better clues...

9:05 am

FMitch

LOL Too kind, but we all have our moments Jera.

9:07 am

bunnyvicious

Gooooooood Morning!

9:07 am

Jera

I'm just amazed at how often the X is used today... usually high letters are used sparingly. I think there's 15 words that use it! I learned some good new words today!

9:08 am

FMitch

Morning bunny

9:08 am

Jera

Greetings, BV, you sound perky!

9:09 am

bunnyvicious

I promise, it isn't the tequila!
Liitle un's woke me up at 4 am, think I over did the coffee!

9:09 am

FMitch

I hope the tequila icon has nothing to do with that!!

9:09 am

FMitch

LOL

9:11 am

Jera

That can happen so easily, BV... how old are your littlies?

9:11 am

bunnyvicious

I'm a little relieved it isn't a whopper grid today.

9:12 am

Jera

*wonders if Tequila ages well, like wine??*

9:12 am

bunnyvicious

They are three, but if one wakes up, so does the other. I'm just glad the other three are spending the night at their aunts, it'd have been a party then!

9:14 am

bunnyvicious

I guess three isn't so little...

9:14 am

bunnyvicious

but they are pretty short.

9:15 am

FMitch

do you have more than 1 set of twins?

9:16 am

bunnyvicious

LOL, nope. The older two are only 11 months apart (someone wasn't paying attention when the doctor told her birth control takes six weeks to kick in!).

9:17 am

Jera

Mine are almost 10 & 4 1/2... they are still my littlies!

9:17 am

bunnyvicious

The twins were our attempt to add one more boy to the mix, talk about backfire! My poor son, but they are great, a whole new chapter pn "the things kids do".

9:18 am

Jera

I'd rather have a whopper grid on a free day than a busy one... Thursdays are crazy for me!

9:18 am

FMitch

LOL well you certainly have your hands full. As one who has never had children I take my hat off to you!

9:18 am

bunnyvicious

Because of work?

9:18 am

Jera

So you have 4 total... 3 girls & a boy? Wow.

9:19 am

bunnyvicious

No, there is one more in the middle, another girl. Total of 5!

9:19 am

Jera

Not really work... Thursday nights are Girl Scouts & I have a hard time stopping planning for the meetings, LOL

9:20 am

Jera

Ah, you were shooting for 2 of each & got twin girls? Sometimes I wish I'd had another girl (especially with Girl Scouts being my thing), but my little man is sooooo precious!

9:21 am

bunnyvicious

My oldest wants to take dance, but if I do that, I have to enrol the other four in expensive activities of their choice. Since Mommy used to be a cheerleader (don't laugh), I bought some matts and am teaching them myself!

9:22 am

FMitch

thats a great idea bunny, keeps the costs down and is something you can do together!!!!

9:22 am

bunnyvicious

We don't have any other outside activites, but the school kids are coming of age for school sports and such, I can't imagine my schedule then!

9:24 am

bunnyvicious

Have ya'll finished, or at least got the al 7?

9:26 am

Angelsong

done!

9:27 am

Angelsong

al7 is Merlin's magic, bunny

9:27 am

FMitch

al7 - think turning base metal to gold!

9:27 am

bunnyvicious

WTG Angel!
Hey, will you give me a link to your resource page, I forgot to save it the other day.

9:27 am

FMitch

Congrats Angelsong

9:28 am

bunnyvicious

Thanks FMitch, don't know if I'd have found that one!

9:28 am

Angelsong

bunny, it's posted on BA...General...announcing a new Babble resource.......or I can make you one that you can keep on your hard drive.

9:29 am

Jera

I finished in under an hour... very pleasant grid today...

I know what you mean about being fair with classes & such. We are doing fencing for a year & I don't know what we'd do if Gwyd wanted the same. Of course, there's a deal with 2 kids, but still.

Sprite is getting a backyard soccer goal set & she will teach her brother soccer this Spring... I'll be there with the camera, warai!

9:29 am

Jera

Huzzah for Angelsong!!

9:29 am

GoBraves

congrats jera - how many words today?

9:30 am

bunnyvicious

OK, I forgot it was in there, I'll get it from anon, don't want to make you busy yourself!

9:30 am

Angelsong

bunny, it's not a problem. I like making pages!

9:31 am

Jera

143 words total today... much better than Thursday!

9:31 am

bunnyvicious

Did you create your own template, it's nice. I get mine from inkfrog for my auctions, but they are lacking!

9:34 am

Angelsong

bunny, I've done them before, but I got that one online as oswd

9:36 am

bunnyvicious

I'll have to check them out, it's so hard to shop for em, I search templates and get a gajillion hits!

9:38 am

bunnyvicious

Did you give your daughter the gift of pro babble yet? She was a hoot!

9:40 am

pask

9:43 am

hydra

I'm logging off now to do some work on other computer, but I'll pop by later to see if you need any help.

9:43 am

bunnyvicious

You wouldn't happen to know a good background source as well? I hate paying for them since I switch em up so much, I have to stick with lighter colors so they don't blaze the auctions out!

9:44 am

Jera

Oh pask, what a simply precious icon you have!!

9:44 am

bunnyvicious

Bye Hydra.

9:44 am

pask

Great thanx

9:45 am

Jacula

Good evening, everyone. 8 words left to find here but they may have to wait until later. Paul's just cooking us a mixed grill with chips (fries to those of you in the US), eggs, garlic mushrooms, garlic bread and a sour cream and chive dip. Yummy! We're both dirty, tired and hungry as we've been making good inroads on clearing out the attic. Later, we're going to watch our new DVD of 'Wallace & Gromit - The Curse of The Were-Rabbit'. I'm looking forward to that!:-)

2:04 pm

Haz1558

Jacula - that sounds as though you've earned both the food and the film treat afterwards. By the way, I'm serving Bailey's cheesecake tomorrow. I'll let you know how it goes down, but licking the bowl was delicious!

2:04 pm

renfield

hey mistress!!!! supper sounds very yummy. i just had veggie fried rice!

2:05 pm

Jacula

Haz - You're *supposed* to use a rubber bowl scraper so that all the filling goes onto the cheesecake!:-) Hope your guests enjoy it as much as you seem to have.

2:07 pm

Haz1558

Well, I didn't actually lick the bowl itself, it was more in the way of sampling from it!

2:07 pm

Jacula

Ren - Are you are 'veggie' (like my daughter), or did you fancy a meat-free meal? Veggie rice is very nice.

2:08 pm

Jacula

Haz - LOL. I now have a vision of you with your head in a mixing bowl and cheesecake filling all over your face and hair!

2:09 pm

5:47 pm

periwinkle

Hi, all!! Help with ca6/36 and ca6/24 please

5:48 pm

gwenski

ca6/36 is plural of ca4/10

5:49 pm

periwinkle

gwenski, don't have the ca4/10

5:49 pm

gwenski

ca6/24 is also a plural of the 4/10, but it doesn't use the high-value letter.

5:49 pm

gwenski

ca 4/10 ends in the high value letter

5:50 pm

gwenski

ca4/10 is the crumbly residue left after a mineral or metal has been calcined or roasted

5:51 pm

periwinkle

gwenski, found the ca4/10, new word for me, also found the ca6/36 but not the ca6/24

5:52 pm

gwenski

substitute the high-value letter with another consonant, that sort of sounds like it.

5:52 pm

gwenski

And these were new words for me, too!

5:53 pm

periwinkle

gwenski, thanks, found the ca6/24 too

5:54 pm

helenkeller

hi everyone - popped in to finish my last ten, now i just gotta find them

5:54 pm

gwenski

I'm just chillin' out here, so if I can be of service in clue-giving, just ask and I'll do what I can.

5:54 pm

periwinkle

ce5/14 anyone?

5:55 pm

periwinkle

ch6/24?

5:56 pm

gwenski

Add a consonant to the ce4/6 to make the adjective ce5

5:56 pm

periwinkle

don't have the ce4/6

5:57 pm

gwenski

ch6/24 sounds to me like it could be a fabric, if it ended in a z.

5:57 pm

gwenski

ce4/6: A saclike cavity with only one opening

5:58 pm

gwenski

ch6/24 = c + hi5/12

5:59 pm

periwinkle

thanks found the ce and ch words I was looking for

7:22 pm

7:24 pm

mab

your brother must be on pins and needles.

7:24 pm

evanonut

yep, yep, yep - gotta run now, i'll be back later with the results!

7:25 pm

gwenski

Right now, the word games are strictly therapy for me. Hubby & I are having time apart, as we attend counseling and try to get things right between us again. (Plus my feet aren't sticking to the floors yet.)

7:25 pm

72 Temple Owl

bye! hi doxy

7:25 pm

evanonut

* skips out of room excitedly *

7:25 pm

doxy1lover

hi temple. Been here a little while.

7:33 pm

Jera

My baby brother is on the way home, he's in the Navy & has been overseas for the past 6 months... he'll be home March 11th!

7:35 pm

72 Temple Owl

on a ship, jera?

7:35 pm

mab

It must be such a relief when a loved one comes home from the armed services.

7:37 pm

periwinkle

la6/33 anyone?

7:38 pm

doxy1lover

la6 - most lazy

7:38 pm

gwenski

My older son is in the Air Force and left for Iraq in the middle of January. He's supposed to be back at the end of May.

7:39 pm

doxy1lover

my son is in the Air Force also, he is stationed in Okinawa. Will probably be there 2 years or more. Just got there a week and a half ago.

7:40 pm

gwenski

My younger son was in the Marines, and was in Okinawa for a while. His job was playing french horn in the band. He's out now, and going to college.

7:41 pm

doxy1lover

did he enjoy Okinawa?

7:41 pm

periwinkle

se6/21?

7:41 pm

gwenski

Yes, I think it did. He was there for about a year.

7:42 pm

doxy1lover

se6/21 - se + ca4/5

7:42 pm

periwinkle

ta6/33?

7:43 pm

gwenski

se6/21: trigonometry term.

7:43 pm

doxy1lover

ta6 - cars that you hail for a ride.

7:43 pm

periwinkle

thanks, found the se6/21
still can't find that la6/33 though

7:44 pm

doxy1lover

la6 uses the high point letter

7:44 pm

gwenski

He certainly enjoyed the weather, except when a typhoon hit. (They have typhoons, not hurricanes in that part of the world.)

7:44 pm

periwinkle

doxy, found the ta6 right before I saw your post, thanks

7:44 pm

doxy1lover

I'm saving money so I can go over while he is there. I love to travel.

7:45 pm

periwinkle

doxy, found the la6, I was trying to put an i in the middle of it which would have made it 7 letters 8)

7:46 pm

gwenski

The furthest I've travelled out of the US is into Canada.

7:47 pm

doxy1lover

that's about as far as I've been. There are several places I would like to go, even in the US.

7:48 pm

mab

gwenski, do you like North Carolina? It seems like it would be lovely.

7:48 pm

Jera

I've never been out of the US... thinking about a road trip to Canada when it starts getting hot here in Virginia.

7:48 pm

evanonut

okay - they're heading to the house - i didn't want to leave babble up where she could see the log

7:49 pm

evanonut

seems like a lot of us have close ones in the military

7:49 pm

mab

oh, the suspense!

7:51 pm

evanonut

i don't know if i can take it - oh no, the dogs are barking - i hope she didn't run screaming the other way.

7:51 pm

evanonut

probably won't be able to post pictures until tomorrow

7:51 pm

mab

me too!

7:52 pm

gwenski

Yes, I like NC. Be back after a phone call...

7:52 pm

doxy1lover

8:06 pm

72 Temple Owl

8:08 pm

musicmom

TO - what you use to do the 4

8:08 pm

renfield

se 7 like grout or stuff you put around the bathtub

8:10 pm

gramma

se4/4 plus a picnic ruiner

8:10 pm

renfield

or t-owl se 7 is a water mammal along the west coast (ark ark) + a little picnic pest

8:10 pm

72 Temple Owl

thanks so much...i am down to 2 words...

8:13 pm

gwenski

So mab, what would you like to know about living in NC?

8:13 pm

mab

Ren, I'm thinking of investing in a DVD to teach me to tap. Think it can be done, I mean learn from a DVD. I know you've been tapping since you could walk, so it might be hard for you to say, but, what do you think?

8:14 pm

musicmom

mab I know nothing about tapping - but I think that sounds like a lot of fun. I love to watch it.

8:14 pm

mab

Gwenski, would Chapel Hill be a nice area?

8:14 pm

72 Temple Owl

may i help anyone with clues?

8:15 pm

musicmom

The last se 5/12?

8:15 pm

gramma

72 temple, you must have found those last 2. congrats!

8:15 pm

mab

Brava, Temple, you finished!!!

8:16 pm

renfield

mab - i think it is a good idea. believe it or not, i did not enjoy all of my dance classes. there were some real snobby girls in my classes.

8:16 pm

musicmom

TO - that was an awful quiet way to announce you had finished! Congratulations!!!

8:16 pm

renfield

way to go t-owl!!!!!!

8:16 pm

gwenski

You'd have to root for the UNC Tarheels if you lived there!

8:16 pm

doxy1lover

congrats temple

8:17 pm

mab

Yes, ren, I remember the snobbery of ballet -- really awful.

8:17 pm

gramma

se5 se plus **-ti-da

8:18 pm

72 Temple Owl

thanks!
se5/12: to vend - last letter + ohs and **s

8:18 pm

mab

adorable clue, gramma.

8:18 pm

renfield

amb - i guess those people had nothing more to do w/ their lives than to be rude...or maybe they were snobs becasue they had no self confidence.

8:19 pm

musicmom

Thank you!! It too both of those clues. Now I feel like a Dunce! That word is in the Bible tons!!

8:19 pm

renfield

amb...how about mab......8)

8:20 pm

72 Temple Owl

8:21 pm

musicmom

Good night TO. See you tomorrow.

8:21 pm

mab

Night Temple. Rest those bones.

8:21 pm

See ya on the flip. Go to class and get smarter than the rest 8)

8:21 pm

renfield

nite t-owl

8:22 pm

doxy1lover

nite temple

8:22 pm

72 Temple Owl

nitey- night all!

8:23 pm

mab

Gotta dance, gotta dance, to quote Gene Kelly.

I remember when Savion Glover came onto the scene -- every African American kid in DC(boys!) was taking class. It was so great to see that.

8:30 pm

renfield

he has style!!!

8:34 pm

mab

Savion? I think he's amazing. He honors the roots of tap and then takes it into completely original directions.

8:39 pm

renfield

yes savion.
i enjoy watching gene kelly dance in the movies, he was just not my idea as a leading man.
did you ever see white knights w/ gregory hines?

8:44 pm

mab

yes, I saw it. Terrible movie, but fabulous dancing. It's so sad Gregory Hines is no longer with us - I just adored him. I also loved when Baryshnikov did a dance in sneakers and did this thing at the end where he ended on his toes with his feet arched to the extreme - it looked so cool.

8:45 pm

musicmom

I loved White Nights when I saw it in the theater. But, I don't know if it was the movie or the fact that I was allowed to drive there by myself<g> I miss Gregory Hines as well. Always like to see Baryshnikov.

8:47 pm

mab

I liked Gene Kelly alot as a dancer, however when he waxed romantic, with, say, Leslie Caron in his arms, it made my skin crawl. He always looked like a heavy breather, unfortunately.

8:47 pm

renfield

mm & mab -yes hines is a loss - very sad....love mmisha

8:48 pm

renfield

mab - i agree on kelly...great dancer...0 on the romatic

8:49 pm

renfield

that's romantic.....duh

8:49 pm

evanonut

SHE SAID YES!

8:50 pm

renfield

YES!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

**F**I**R**E **W**O**R**K**S***

8:50 pm

musicmom

YAYA!!!!!! Whoohoooo! When's the wedding?

8:51 pm

renfield

nut!!! that is so wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!!1
mazel tov!!!!!!!!

8:51 pm

evanonut

dunno, i just missed them dangit - just when i figured they must be staying in to celebrate, they went up for the announcement

8:51 pm

evanonut

have to be back up for breakfast with them tomorrow before they leave for her parents house.

8:52 pm

evanonut

i'm so excited, couldn't ask for a nicer sister in law

8:52 pm

mab

I knew what you meant. Didn't even notice the missing n.

I read an autobiography of a ballerina 'Dancing on my Grave,' who ended up loathing Misha and went extensively into his (according to her) lousy lovemaking. Rather cheap of her.

8:53 pm

renfield

that's is important! i have 2 wonderful sister - in- laws!!!!

8:53 pm

musicmom

I have no sister in laws --- even though Greg has two brothers who *could* get married.

8:54 pm

mab

Eeeeeeeeee! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!! That's so exciting!!!

8:55 pm

renfield

right mab....i don't care about the peronal stuff..we all have stuff...it's the dance

8:55 pm

evanonut

well, as i have no sisters - i've been waiting for this, and he could easily have scared her from me, because he explained to her that it is essential that she get along with me.

8:57 pm

musicmom

I have a brother in law (my sister's husband ) whom I like okay, but that isn't the same as a sister in law.

8:57 pm

renfield

oh no nut!!!!

8:57 pm

mab

Send them to western Mass, musicmom. I need a man, I want a man. Like yesterday. I'll try really hard not to annoy them.... promise....

8:57 pm

musicmom

Help with the ca 6/24 between the two 7s?

8:58 pm

musicmom

My favorite brother in law is 35, very funny, very opinionated. How do you feel about bald?

8:59 pm

evanonut

s'okay ren, hubbynut had the same stipulation (only he didn't know it), but i could never marry someone who didn't get along with my baby bro - working on getting you guys photos right now.

8:59 pm

gwenski

ca6/24 is a plural of ca4/10 that doesn't use the high-value letter.

8:59 pm

renfield

mm ca 6/24 is the plural of ca 4/10

9:00 pm

mab

hair is no issue.

I'm so happy for you evanout! That was sweet of your brother -- kind of odd, but sweet. You must be close, which is so wonderful.

9:01 pm

EasternBlue

hi kids!!

evanonut - congrats!!!

in my family - not only did any 'boy' entering the family have to meet with the approval of the 4 sisters, they also had to be screened by the already included brothers-in-law...!! talk about pressure!! 8 D

9:01 pm

renfield

hey eb!!!!!!!!!!

9:02 pm

mab

Wow, that sounds like quite a process, Eastern. Pretty sweet too.

9:02 pm

musicmom

I'll be happy to set you up. ;-)Imagine a babbler for a sister-in-law.<G>

9:03 pm

EasternBlue

as my father had the 5 girls...as we each go married, the guys were 'initiated' into the MSG (men's support group)...it's pretty funny to see all the guys together...

9:03 pm

evanonut

he was nervous about asking her parent - they told the first guy no.

so, how do i post a pic in babs anon?

9:03 pm

EasternBlue

oops...got married...

9:03 pm

musicmom

Okay does the ca24 end in the squiggly letter or a vowel?

9:04 pm

mab

That would be intimidating, evanout! Glad your brother made the cut!

9:04 pm

gwenski

squiggly letter.

9:04 pm

renfield

squiggly snakey kind of letter

9:04 pm

EasternBlue

nut - dunno how to post pix in bab anon...sorry!

9:04 pm

musicmom

Okay thanks.

9:05 pm

torgone

Wow. All I had to do was impress a JUDGE ..

9:05 pm

gwenski

mm, if you have the ca6/36 plural, just change the high-value letter to a different one.

9:05 pm

EasternBlue

9:05 pm

EasternBlue

hi Tor!!

9:06 pm

musicmom

Whooo finally found it. Sheesh talk about going round the mulberry bush. How about the me6?

9:06 pm

mab

What Tor? No pretty wedding for you?

9:06 pm

Dianne

musicmom - think of a shortened form of a kind of math
then give it a plural ending.

9:06 pm

gwenski

se5/12 is often found in Psalms.

9:07 pm

renfield

hi torg
nut - email swmbo and she will post them for you. she posted grey wolfe's baby pixs

9:07 pm

musicmom

There were some great clues for the se given about 30-40 minutes ago.

9:07 pm

evanonut

hang on - i'm moving them into my blog - will that work for ya'll?

9:08 pm

torgone

Oh yes. There was a wedding .. But the former Mrs. Torgone's father was a judge; And I wasn't a model citizen ..

9:08 pm

gwenski

me6 - think of a term a jewish person would use to describe someone.

9:09 pm

EasternBlue

thanks for the se clues...!!!

9:11 pm

mab

me - yiddish, a really good guy.

9:11 pm

bye musicmom...enjoy!!

9:31 pm

torgone

The show has mainly a cult following to begin with, but after a few years, the host quit and was replaced by another, which caused a rift in the cult and created a sub-cult - Those who felt that shows with the original host, Joel, are the only shows worth watching .. It's all very complicated and incredibly insignificant ..

9:31 pm

musicmom

Thanks eb. see you tomorrow.

9:32 pm

evanonut

ren - success.

10:01 pm

renfield

10:02 pm

mab

Ok. T'is there.

10:03 pm

smaller

oooo there's a poop word in the grid. i like the excretion related ones
if "peed" were in the grid, it would be a perfect night for me

10:04 pm

renfield

ur in trouble smaller....

10:06 pm

torgone

To understand the phrase "Great bad movie" is to know a lot about me ..

10:06 pm

mab

I believe that Freud would say you are stuck in the anal phase of development. It seems to be a comfortable spot for you, however, so -- enjoy.

10:06 pm

smaller

20 t's?!!! ugh. better than lately though. Thanks mab!!

ohhhh thanks ren!

10:07 pm

torgone

.. not like anyone would want to ..

10:08 pm

renfield

torg....our dvd library is really great bad movies....were we separated at birth????

10:08 pm

EasternBlue

Tor - what other movies would you put in that category (since I've never seen wasp woman...)

10:08 pm

mab

Oh, Torgone! We know you a little bit and we love you.

10:09 pm

renfield

the brain that wouldn't die
the head

10:09 pm

smaller

mab,
i think that hits at about 2 years old.
...so yes your assessment of me fits perfectly. oooo and note the fun in "assessment" . loads of excretions from there. oh and "sass" is in it too. fav word for this week!

10:09 pm

mab

Mars Needs Women, is my entry for great bad movies.

10:10 pm

renfield

spider island

10:10 pm

smaller

mab,
Mars Needs Women... heckuva movie!!! good choice!

10:11 pm

mab

Why, thank you, thank you very much.

10:13 pm

renfield

ok mars needs women...what about that bubbles

10:14 pm

torgone

"Creature From The Haunted Sea" a Roger Corman "classic", "Plan 9..." of course, "Warning From Space", "The Giant Gila Monster", "The Day The Sky Exploded" . . . .Too many to mention ...

10:14 pm

EasternBlue

I've not seen any of the movies mentioned thus far...

10:15 pm

EasternBlue

oh, wait, maybe I should come out from under my rock!!

10:15 pm

torgone

EB - Most people need medication to watch this kind of movie ..

10:15 pm

mab

Mars probably doesn't really count, as one senses the makers were not entirely serious. Maybe a move can only be good bad if the filmmaker was earnest?

10:16 pm

smaller

EB,
I've seen the Mars Needs Women and the Day the Sky Exploded of the list so far. With the first time you see them, you pretty much just blink a lot and think..."what the ...." but then they grow on you.

10:17 pm

renfield

wasp woman is roger corman

10:17 pm

EasternBlue

Tor - maybe that explains it...I try to stay away from meds!! ; )

10:17 pm

mab

must admit, Mars is the only good bad movie I know of.

10:17 pm

renfield

The Monster That Challenged the World

10:19 pm

smaller

Ren and Torg,
i think you may just be split-aparts. or maybe fraternal gametes that fused together for awhile and then split at birth to hide the weirdness of the uterine event

10:19 pm

mab

oh, do we have to discuss the current administration?

10:20 pm

torgone

"Voyage To The Planet Of Prehistoric Women" must be on the list ..

10:20 pm

renfield

LOL smaller....

10:20 pm

smaller

"uterine" THAT would be a good babble treasure

10:21 pm

mab

Tor - do you now, or have you ever had red curly hair?

10:21 pm

smaller

LOL mab!!

10:21 pm

renfield

oh yes it is torg!!!
eb...you don't need meds....just the ability to know these movies are pure cheese!!!

10:22 pm

torgone

mab - Wavy brown now going grey ..

10:24 pm

renfield

10:27 pm

EasternBlue

10:31 pm

EasternBlue

Not this again. You know I'm ever so slightly sedated right now (which actually means I'm sort of normalish) and I don't know what you are talking about. It isn't nice to take advantage of the neurologically scrambled. (he he).

10:44 pm

renfield

10:48 pm

EasternBlue

woo hoo - c's are done!!

(it took me a moment for the spanish for milk...sadly - I took latin in HS & I know sign language, but that's it for me...luckily - I LOVE musicals & there's a line in Guys & Dolls...dulce de ______)....I'm so pathetic!!

10:48 pm

Eva

de nada

10:49 pm

renfield

thanks torg!!!! i thought you were really a mennil-toss flykune

10:50 pm

Eva

Have you ever tasted dulce de leche? Lots of people love it-sort of a caramel/sweetened evaporated milk type of thing so sweet it hurts your teeth.

10:50 pm

renfield

ca + ec 4/6

So Montana is not really in your future either, Tor?

10:51 pm

torgone

I'm a voodoo chile ..

10:52 pm

EasternBlue

eva - I've never tried it, but anything caramel appeals to me... : )

10:52 pm

Eva

EB- when I went to HS they didn't offer Spanish-a very different US then. The choices were Latin & French. I took french and was pretty fluent for a while, but not much use for it anymore. Speak English (most of the time), French is rusty, Hebrew-never great and now terribly rusty and a very small smattering of Spanish. Used to speak pig latin-but gone.

10:53 pm

renfield

play it jimi

10:54 pm

Eva

Well thanks again for the help everyone and goodnight. See you in the morning.

10:54 pm

EasternBlue

Eva - my HS had french, spanis & latin...encouraged to take latin to help w/ the SAT's....
took Sign Language & French in college (my French is miserable!!)...
could speak pig-latin...

10:56 pm

torgone

Black Cat Moan?

10:58 pm

renfield

LOL torg....was that jeff beck???

10:59 pm

mab

Oh, that's so nice. It makes me feel very guilty, as my little black cat is getting the cold shoulder from me today.... I should give in soon and forgive her.

11:00 pm

renfield

mab......you better hug that kitty!!!

11:00 pm

torgone

Black Cat Moan goes WAY back .. Coco Taylor I think, or maybe older ..

11:01 pm

mab

I will.

11:01 pm

mab

Torgone hates cats, and GW throws them.

11:02 pm

EasternBlue

mab - did your kitty do something bad to deserve the cold shoulder??

11:02 pm

mab

That was so evil of me. I'm sorry. (but it's true)

11:03 pm

renfield

torg..didn't john mayall also do black cat moan???

11:03 pm

torgone

I don't hate cats, I just don't have any particular use for them, except maybe catching mice ..

11:05 pm

mab

The litter box needed changing (clearly my fault) and she peed on a sock that shouldn't have been on the floor. It's all my fault, but she's done the same before and I don't want it to become a real behavior problem. She actually knows why I'm ignoring her.

11:06 pm

mab

Use? you're talking utility? Cats are an art form.

11:07 pm

EasternBlue

mab - ah...understandable...

I'm more of a dog person...plus hubby is allergic to cats...
