how's jaianniah doing? i didn't get to ask earlier when you were on... thought about her all day!

12:01 am

mich_pdx

Goodnight, ladies, it's been esp. lovely & let's really do the PNW boggle thing! I'm coming back to this tomorrow, after I take my exam.

12:02 am

SueQ

wassup, I must hit the sack, but you'll be thrilled to know I finished!

12:02 am

knutmeg

She's doing okay. They have her a bit more comfortable, and she got a bit of sleep today. No word on what happened or what the doctors are going to do to fix it, though. Frustrating.

12:04 am

stidmama

see you tomorrow missyem! yes, let's make our PacNW get-together a reality!

12:04 am

stidmama

knutmeg, that is good that she can rest -- so sorry they can't figure out what it is yet. must be frustrating for you as well as her.

very frustrating, for her. I've been feeding her the babble puzzles the last few days to keep her occupied. There needs to be a detox center for Babble addiction. :-)

12:09 am

12:11 am

12:14 am

renfield

hey knutmeg - what happened to your mom? is she ok?

12:14 am

knutmeg

That sounds good, she could use the cheer-up, Stid, I'll email you.
Cybernan- Mom wrenched her back in a car mishap last week, which, because she just had MAJOR back surgery in March, seems to have caused more damage than should have. But they don't know what's wrong, she's just in lots and lots of pain. So they put her in the hospital to find out what is going on.

12:16 am

cybernan

ouch -- I don't think there is anything worse than a sore back!!! --- hope they get things mended soon. Please give her my best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Good morning all. Just arrived. Is the grid civilised?

3:27 am

FMitch

Hi AFShortie

Morning Haz, it's a real easy one today. Lots of lovely words.

3:27 am

Haz1558

Oh good - here I go!

3:37 am

FMitch

Once you find the bloke(s) in the bottom right hand corner you will then be able to get 2 x d7 and 2 x k7

3:39 am

Haz1558

Thanks - got the two k7s, now looking for the d 7s.

3:41 am

Haz1558

Thanks - got them. Reminds me of the old comedy series 'Rhoda' Often heard but never seen ' This is Carlton your do7/36'

3:41 am

FMitch

OMG that is a blast from the past!

3:42 am

Haz1558

Not that I watch the Simpsons much, but Marge is played by the actress who was Rhoda's sister.

3:46 am

FMitch

OK found todays strangest word (so far)
ko6/33 - 2 consonants and 4 volwels (all the same) - African antelope

3:50 am

Haz1558

Thanks - my crossword dictionary has revealed it to me. Yes, a strange word.

3:50 am

FMitch

I had to use a2z to find it.

4:00 am

michaelden

I think they've spelt it wrong - at home we spell it kudu

4:01 am

Haz1558

The crossword dictionary gives both renditions and presumably enable would as well.

4:14 am

Eva

Good morning everyone. Did anyone else get shut out of the game last night?

4:19 am

FMitch

Hi Eva, I didn't have any probs but it might have been after I had shut down for the night.

4:27 am

FMitch

Help please, anyone got a clue for the 4th co7, just can't find it.

4:27 am

FMitch

sorry mean the 5th co7

4:31 am

trishtrash

My fifth co7 is the guy who issues reports on every death ... but I haven't gotten to Lickety's list yet.

4:32 am

davetins

fmitch the one who does post mortems

4:37 am

Eva

what a relief! Just finished the r's without an interminable search for re's.

4:43 am

FMitch

Thanks guys, sorry for the delay just had to reboot. However I have that one. Found the one I was missing.....
.... and I am done!!!!

4:44 am

trishtrash

congrats, Fmitch.

4:55 am

FMitch

thanks trish.
Have to reboot again having PC probs, catch you all later. Have a good Friday.

4:56 am

Eva

does anyone have a hint for the do8?

4:57 am

trishtrash

Eva -- sounds like someone tapping at the entrance.

4:58 am

trishtrash

plural for the 8

4:58 am

Karys

do8.....think someone tapping your do4....and drop second vowel

5:02 am

Eva

sorry Karys-being utterly dense. Do you drop the second vowel from the root do4 or from the second part?

5:02 am

Karys

sorry....from the root d

5:03 am

Eva

thanks-off hunting

5:03 am

trishtrash

Eva .... do4 (less vowel) + tap or rap (less first letter)

5:04 am

Karys

thats better trish....couldn't think how to put it !!!

5:04 am

Eva

got i t! Thanks! Now have to look up what the weird thing means.

5:05 am

Eva

except the way my computer's been functioning lately, I'm not going to google the definition because I might never get back to the grid.

5:07 am

Karys

oooo.....don't upset it Eva !!....must go, see you later

5:07 am

trishtrash

Eva... so you don't have to abandon us ;)

"A coarse sort of damask, originally made at Tournay, Belgium, and used for hangings, carpets, etc. Also, a stout figured linen manufactured in Scotland"

5:07 am

trishtrash

Bye Karys!

5:07 am

Jacula

Hi all.

Eva - Here's the definition for you:

A coarse sort of damask, originally made at Tournay , Belgium, and used for hangings, carpets, etc. Also, a stout figured linen manufactured in Scotland.

5:08 am

Eva

Thanks an good morning Jacula!

5:08 am

trishtrash

Hi Jacula :)

5:09 am

Jacula

Hi both.

Eva - My Kira (see pic) says 'Good Morning' to your Merp.

5:09 am

cliffopa

hey everyone, i've got a new addition to my pet family. he was rescued yesterday after being mauled by a dog. his name is brady.

5:11 am

trishtrash

aww *fusses the kitty ears gently* ... you get good kitty karms, cliffopa!

5:11 am

trishtrash

*karma

5:12 am

Eva

Hi kira and brady! Is Kira on the kitchen counter? Or in her office? What a beautiful color!

Did Brady get injured? Congrats on the new member of the household!

5:13 am

Jacula

Cliffopa - Poor kitten! I'm sure you'll give him a good home though.

Eva - Kira's sitting on one of the chairs at the kitchen table. She's not allowed on the worktops!

5:14 am

cliffopa

brady is a bit chewed up but luckily no stitches required. some sort of terrier got to him. antibiotics and pain meds for a while...but the attack does not seem to have affected him otherwise.

5:16 am

cliffopa

i can't believe how cute he is! he is only 8 weeks old. i have not raised a kitten for 18 yrs or so. usually adopt older cats with health problems.

5:20 am

Eva

Well Kira is much better behaved (or trained(-:) than Merp, who goes basically wherever he wants. He's never been one to steal food from counters though.

Big time Kitten Lust Cliff. Do you have an arrangement with the vet or the shelter to call you for adoptions? I thought for a while of fostering, but don't think I could take the separations and in any case Merp won't allow it. Or we're not sure he would, since he was so hostile to the other cats when he was adopted the first time, before he was returned and found his way to us.

5:22 am

lynxxx

'evening haz

5:24 am

Haz1558

Hello lynxxx - I've been away taking a phone call hence radio silence for a while!

5:26 am

Eva

what's wrong with conman? Is it two words?

5:27 am

cliffopa

i've been going to the same vet practice for about 15 yrs and have told them i will take on special cases (cats people can't afford medical care for or abused ones) but i adopt them right off - i would never be able to give up a foster!

i have a special room in our house i use for new arrivals because i have a dog and other cats. there is always tension when a new one comes here. when i adopted 2 old himalayans 3 yrs ago, it took them a year before they felt safe enough to come out of that room. my younger cat zoey only took 3 months to adjust - although the one himmy i have left still does not like her.

5:27 am

Haz1558

Eva - con man is two separate words.

5:28 am

Jacula

Eva - When we first adopted Kira, or rather, she adopted us, we used to have a chenille cloth on the kitchen table. Unfortunately, she considered this a very good place to sit and so we dispensed with the cloth. As for climbing up the furniture, she only tried that a few times and we told off. Also, she's far too lazy to make the effort these days!

Tiggsy, the other cat, is a swine for climbing up where he shouldn't, though.

5:29 am

trishtrash

I'm done... this was a nice grid :) So long everyone.

5:30 am

Jacula

Well done, Trish. See you again.

5:30 am

Eva

I've always dreamed of having a barn which I could use for adoptions of all kinds, and where local school kids could come and learn to care for animals. That seemed especially important when I lived in the city, as so many inner city kids can't have pets where they live, and no one ever gves them the chance to care for anyone/thing, or allows them to be responsible for someone else. It seemed like it would be great for the animals and great for the kids. I always imagined that they would earn the right the "adopt" one of the animals (although it would stay in the animal center) and to train other kids. But never got a grant and now live out here where it isn't so critical and most kids have access to all the animals they need.

5:35 am

lynxxx

haz - you know all (esp english) - what is wrong with norman? not only given name - ?

5:35 am

Eva

lynx-I assume it would have to be capitalized

5:36 am

Haz1558

Norman is capitalized in the dictionary.

5:37 am

Haz1558

But you can have the abbreviated version!

5:38 am

lynxxx

thnx E & H - noted - no trying 'groups' of people anymore

5:38 am

Jacula

And the plural of the abbreviated version!

5:38 am

Haz1558

lynxx - I reckon you should try everything!

5:39 am

lynxxx

Yes - did that - and strangely my middle name is the not quite so abreviated form - guess thats why I saw it.

5:39 am

Eva

time for a walk. See you all later if the gods let me back into the site.

5:40 am

Jacula

'Bye Eva. Enjoy your walk.

5:40 am

ARB

Good Afternoon .. looks like an interesting grid

5:41 am

Jacula

Hazel - Do you have a pic of your dog we can see?

5:41 am

Haz1558

Yes - I'll get a picture of her now. Two minutes...

5:43 am

Haz1558

Refresh - Spangle, welsh springer spaniel, aged 5. She didn't look as pretty as this yesterday after rolling in mounds of fermenting grass.....

5:44 am

FMitch

bet she didn't smell as sweet either! Lovely woofer Haz :)

5:45 am

Jacula

Haz - She'l lovely! Know what you mean about the slimey grass. Does she also like to rub her neck in fox poo? My dog used to! He'd seek it out deliberately after he'd had a bath. What a stink!

5:46 am

Jacula

Hello, ARB. Yes, the grid's been fine for me so far. Am slowing down now I've reached 122 words though.

5:46 am

Haz1558

She stank! It was straight to the shower when we got home. But you can't stay angry with her for very long. Anyway, have to give her a walk and the house needs cleaning, so I'll head off and get the rest of the words later.

6:02 am

Jacula

I've finished the k's now.

There are 3 ko words, 2 of which sound like apple centres (ko4's) and the other (ko6) which sounds like African witchcraft.

6:03 am

Jacula

The first ki4 & 5 are what you put pottery into to fire it.

6:03 am

Jacula

Hope that helps!

I just found 2 bowel-washing words in the e's.:/

6:10 am

lshult

thanks for that Jac, feel quite flushed now

6:11 am

Jacula

LOL, Ishult.

6:13 am

lshult

I was wondering if there is anyone whose 1st word today wasn't the Quacker (bet there isn't)?

6:14 am

Jacula

The Quacker was my first word, Ishult. Quite a few birds in today's grid.

6:15 am

Jacula

(And bird sounds!)

6:18 am

lshult

and wriggly bird food

6:24 am

Jacula

Just found a metal character(s) from 'Oz' in the t's.

lshult

still looking for 37 words

6:43 am

ARB

I'll accept that young man's salute

6:45 am

lshult

I used to keep changing my icon to match the current theme. But how can I delete my gorgeous sons picture?!?

6:46 am

ARB

Absolutely not. And I have to keep my chocolate icon -- it's appropriate no matter what the theme! "Give me the chocolate and nobody gets hurt!"

6:48 am

lshult

that reminded me, just got Cadburys Double Decker bars in the Kibbutz shop. Getting peckish just thinking about it!!!!

6:49 am

ARB

Cadbury's and not the red cow? How unpatriotic but how delicious!

6:51 am

lshult

sorry, but you can keep your red cow chocolate. Always makes me think of Easter Egg chocolate (cheap quality)

6:52 am

ARB

I pawn it off on my grandkids -- to their mothers' non-delight and I use the Lindz 70% for the adults!

6:54 am

lshult

obviously someone who knows their chocolate. Still I always prefere Cadburys even over the so called better quality Swiss & Belgium stuff!!

6:56 am

guigrrl

lindt dark chocolate truffles are my weekness

6:56 am

guigrrl

weakness (sp)

6:57 am

lshult

I have to admit that yesterday while eating a rather delicious chocolate cookie, given to me as a gift from Argentina, I told my son , with a perfectly straight face, that he wouldn't like it so he couldn't have a bite.
Does that make a bad parent (or indeed a bad person)

6:58 am

musicmom

LOL Ishult - I just came in to see how big the grid was and saw your post. That is *SO* something I would do.

Unfortunately my girls LOVE dark chocolate - the darker the better.

6:59 am

cliffopa

musicmom - its better they love dark chocolate than that yucky milk chocolate.

6:59 am

musicmom

Be back later - this looks like a good one.

6:59 am

guigrrl

wow -- your girls have good taste!

7:00 am

musicmom

Yes and it is even better now that Hershey makes a miniatures mix that is all dark. I had to race them to the special dark in the old blend.

7:00 am

musicmom

guigrrl--- It couldn't possibly be all the chocolate I ate while preggers.

7:01 am

musicmom

My husband is the only weirdo = he likes white chocolate that isn't even choco at all.

7:02 am

guigrrl

hahaha -- then I need to be prepared for my son eating my stash!

i'm looking at a ghiradelli dark chocolate square wrapper on my desk from last night LOL

7:02 am

guigrrl

aah! white chocolate NOOOO!

7:03 am

musicmom

LOL -- yep be prepared to share.

If I had known he like the abomination before I married him........<G>

Okay I really need to go. Breakfast meeting. Be back later.
Happy babbling.

7:03 am

lshult

Must be a man thing, I love White chocolate (mind you so does my wife).
We can get here the Hershey's white chocolate with cookies inside.....Hmmmmmm.....

7:03 am

cliffopa

they should not even be able to call that white stuff chocolate. tastes like plastic to me.

7:04 am

8:28 am

Jacula

Movieman - do 7 & plural do8/70 - it's a type of stiff fabric but sounds like the brass thing you might have on your front entrance for people to rap upon to alert you to their presence.

8:29 am

faeriekae

Bye TO

8:29 am

carrie5752

the 8 is a do8 it starts with something on hinges minus one vowel and the second part is what you do to the thing on hinges minus a consonant.

Now does anyone have the me7?

8:29 am

evilolive

me 7 is plural for me6

8:30 am

movieman

Me6=me4/5+er

7=the plural.....

8:30 am

carrie5752

thanks evil (love the name)

I never would have guessed that that word had a plural

8:30 am

movieman

Kenny Chuck

8:48 am

cliffopa

does anyone have the last co 7/32 (the one that comes after the plural of a mexican-sounding beer)

8:48 am

faeriekae

Oh Ok :p

8:48 am

Haz1558

There are lots of co5/12. Can you be more specific re its position in the list?

8:48 am

Jacula

co5/12 - a way of calling someone
co5/12 - a pigeon maybe?
co5/12 - implement for taking the middle of of apples

8:48 am

Haz1558

cliffopa - the last co is a medical person who investigates cause of death etc.

8:48 am

MikeyInBerlin

=^-.-^=

8:48 am

Kenny Chuck

Right you are, Haz...I believe it's the first, although it could be 2nd. No later than that, tho.

8:49 am

faeriekae

Good Morning MIkey :)

8:49 am

Jacula

Last co5/12 - what you may have on your feet if yourshoes are too tight.

8:49 am

cliffopa

thanks haz - i had that word on my mind an hour ago, don't know why i didn't use it/see it!

8:49 am

Haz1558

The second co5/12 is the person doing the baby talk

8:50 am

MikeyInBerlin

faeriekae

8:51 am

cliffopa

8:51 am

faeriekae

faeriekae

Congrats. Cliff

Jacula

Kenny - it's the same as the 2nd co5 except for the last letter. If I wanted to catch your attention, I might shout, 'Cooee!'

8:53 am

Haz1558

in7 is a comparative - more mad than the in 6

8:53 am

Kenny Chuck

Got it! Thanks, all...23 to go...

Jacula

Haz - Thanks for those 2 in's, I was just looking for them. Mad that I hadn't found them, isn't it?;-)

8:55 am

Jacula

EEK! Could have sworn I'd starred out those last 2 letters.

SORRY! *Blushes.*

8:55 am

Haz1558

You're forgiven!

8:56 am

Jacula

Thanks, Haz. Ooh, I'm having a hot flush now with the shame of it.

9:01 am

faeriekae

ROFL Mikey - I know you do you silly goose :)

9:03 am

MikeyInBerlin

9:03 am

movieman

SCD - Howsabout giving me the first 2 letters and the points value.....

9:04 am

hurshy

or 5/10

9:05 am

faeriekae

Mikey - that is true but it is hard to get your teeth around a slimy eyeball. So that might be a little safer for you LOL

9:06 am

movieman

SCD - I'm assuming the or5/10 doesn't have an actual definition....

9:07 am

MikeyInBerlin

hmm; not so, faeriekae.....'smaller' managed it the other day, didn't she? :-/ 'cos if you recall, she ate almost *all* of me.....including my entire head, eyes and all!!! :-P

9:07 am

hurshy

9:08 am

hurshy

movieman

9:27 am

movieman

SCD - Nope, still missing 2...

That er6 is destroying my brain, and I haven't a clue about the other one...

leighprefect

Speaking of cholocate, say I have a nice Easter bunny from Gertrude Hawk...How can I make chocolate shavings? I can't just use a cheese grater or something, can I?

10:01 am

capone

yes

or just smash it with a mallet

10:01 am

hurshy

i think you can, leigh, or a food processor or a salad shooter or certain mixer attachments

10:01 am

hurshy

i'd refrigerate it first though, or even freeze it

10:02 am

leighprefect

It's freezing away now. My mother said the same thing, about the mallet...Hmm.

10:02 am

leighprefect

I just didn't want to ruin the blade of anything like that. Thanks!

10:03 am

hurshy

i don't think a mallet would give shavings so much as bits

10:04 am

majmom

good day-how many words today?

10:04 am

Cathyar

ok...i've tried everything... does anyone have a clue for the do8?

10:04 am

oh no -- i missed Jacula! and faeriekae... :-(

but I got the rest of you! :-) (((hugs)))

10:04 am

hurshy

176 - although when i first got on it told me 123, go figure

10:05 am

leighprefect

One other question for all you smart people out there: If I were to upgrade to Pro, besides getting the benefit of participating in theme days with my icon, and getting a panel, how is the stats panel much different from what I'd find on Lickety's page or BA?

10:05 am

movieman

Cathyar - do8=plural of do7

(think brass door fittings).....

10:06 am

hurshy

well leigh, i find it nice to see which box the words come from. you also get the benefit of knowing you are helping to prevent doc g from a slow death by starvation :)

10:06 am

majmom

ty-gonna be a long search-so lets get started-gotta work tomorrow so no time tomorrow

10:07 am

stidmama

leigh -- the stats panel can be really useful to help weed out where to start a word that you're missing, or knowing that you're actually got the same words here as on Lickety's list... and of course, you can put in a profile bio... which can be nice, too!

10:07 am

movieman

Leigh - the stats panel is good 'cos you can see straight away how many words there are, and how many come from each letter....

10:07 am

stidmama

good morning, majmom!

10:08 am

movieman

Stidmama - hiya!!!!!

10:08 am

Hello, Mikey. Though I've been here before, you can christen my Pro-dom.

Everytime I ask for help, you never give the points values....

10:18 am

Hurrah!!!!!

I've found those n's at last......

10:42 am

Minski

HI.
Does anyone have the ER6/30?

10:43 am

movieman

Minski - the er6/30 is an archaic word meaning before or heretofore.....

10:44 am

And it starts from the e in the 4th row....

10:46 am

leighprefect

Any help with the last co 7/32?

10:47 am

hurshy

as co7/32, i must aver, i've thoroughly examined her
and she's not only merely dead, she's really most sincerely dead

10:47 am

Minski

Thanks movieman. What a strange word.

10:49 am

Minski

Thanks hurshy. I didn't have that one either.

10:49 am

To really answer the question, his name is Martin Brodeur, and he plays for the Devils. And I'm madly obsessed. And since this is my first day Pro, I didn't have any old icons, so I used him.

11:00 am

hurshy

the do 7/36's and the ki's are all real words. people. i don't know which two co's you need...

11:01 am

movieman

hydra - or you could have said it's the name of the principal in "The Simpsons".....

11:01 am

markbowers7

Hurshy, they may be ral, but that doesn't mean we see them

11:01 am

hurshy

or the famous behavioral psychologist...

11:01 am

markbowers7

ral = real

11:02 am

hydra

Yes, movieman, that's easier! Didn't think of it, though.

11:02 am

hurshy

i know mark - but i am trying to challenge you - i do it to my math students too :)

11:02 am

hurshy

all but the co7 i clued earlier are plurals.

11:03 am

hurshy

i mean all the co7s.

11:04 am

movieman

Well, SCD, I have the co7/32 that's the plural of "One who holds an opposing opinion or view."....

And the co7 that's the plural of the part of the eye....

And the co7/32 that's the dead body examiner.....

11:04 am

mamabear

markbowers???? how are you? Haven't seen you in forever and a half!

11:04 am

hurshy

ok, so you need co6 the edge of the sun and its plurals

11:04 am

hurshy

mama's icon is from naked friday! i remember that well.

11:05 am

movieman

SCD - If the do7's & the ki7's are real words, what are their definitions......

:-/ i just realized the sun has been in my eyes -- need to go lie down until the pretty lights stop blinking in my brain (migraines suck). Back later...

11:08 am

markbowers7

Movieman, the ki7's are people who are related to you...your ki4/8...

11:09 am

hurshy

hurshy is not trying to be mean, she is just trying to prevent people from feeling dumb when they find the words....

11:10 am

markbowers7

2 od the do7's and people who hold do4/5's

11:10 am

movieman

TY, SCD, but according to the stats, I'm still missing a 7, and I think it's another co7......

I have the co7/32 that's the plural of "One who holds an opposing opinion or view."....

And the co7 that's the plural of the part of the eye....

And the co7/32 that's the dead body examiner.....

And the sun one......

11:11 am

hurshy

movieman, if you read my sun clue very closely you should see what you are missing - i did not make a typo

11:11 am

Minski

MM try the latin plural of the sun one.

11:13 am

hurshy

sigh. if people don't WANT to feel clever i will stop trying to give subtle clues then i guess.

11:13 am

Thanx again, SCD, guess I'm so determined to complete this one, that I'm not paying much attention.....

11:15 am

movieman

Why isn't korma a word??

11:19 am

torgone

Does hurshy have the end of the brand of orange juice?

11:19 am

hurshy

rolin- i think it's really more like people who scam you.

and when people ask about korma, are they thinking of karma?

11:20 am

leighprefect

I think you're thinking of karma, Chris?

11:20 am

markbowers7

the co7 is the plural of the co6, which is also a guys name

11:20 am

hurshy

yes torgone hurshy does

11:20 am

Chris P

No - as in the indian dish chicken korma

11:20 am

leighprefect

Oh. Sounds spicy!

11:21 am

hurshy

then, chris p, i will repeat my comment that questioning the enable dictionary is the path to madness

11:21 am

Minski

Got the IN7! Done with the 7s and 8. Now just 53 4s, 5s, and 6s to go.

11:21 am

Chris P

It tastes of coconut and is very yummy

11:22 am

rolin

oh duh..just the plural of the co6 i had...*Fish*

11:24 am

rolin

thers a 7/52??..what does that start with pls\?

11:25 am

11:25 am

hurshy

this k is driving me krazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!

11:26 am

hurshy

AHA! got it!

11:26 am

11:34 am

hurshy

no cnan, have those (besides the sl5 and the sn5 mentioned before come from the lower s)

11:34 am

hetty

Apologies to Rolin. Justrb reread the question and realized the word in question does not begin wuth "a".
Ypou see, I hadn't had my coffee yet . Now I have it. . .
mmmm coffee and babble, what a way to start theday

11:35 am

Tigereye

11:36 am

cybernan

11:37 am

hurshy

yup.

11:37 am

hurshy

CHS, where did you go... could really use that point total!

11:37 am

cybernan

the hairnet?

11:38 am

hurshy

i know, you are punishing me for always forgetting to put the points in when i tell you words

11:38 am

hurshy

yes, have the hairnet.

11:38 am

Tigereye

Hurshy, To obtrude one's self on another for bed and board?

11:39 am

hurshy

11:40 am

cybernan

11:41 am

cybernan

11:41 am

hurshy

oh, tigereye - yes i have that, didn't know what it meant, only know them as aliens from lewis's space trilogy! LOL
and yes i have the boat

11:41 am

hurshy

and what clouds do

11:41 am

hurshy

you'd think i'd have monkeyed it by now

11:43 am

hurshy

ok got it! i'm done! thanks for playing, all!!!

11:43 am

cybernan

ok, so what was it?

11:43 am

leighprefect

hurshy- that's all we get? no booby prize?

11:43 am

hurshy

tigereye gets 1000 points, by the way - i did not have the singular bad mood (see i started the puzzle in class and they keyboard sucked so some things i had put in didn't get in!)

11:44 am

hurshy

the sc5 though was weird, it is some coin - add vowel to end of what clouds do

11:44 am

Tigereye

Wooo 1000 points :D

11:45 am

hurshy

yes you get 1000 if you help me find my very last one :)

11:45 am

cybernan

I'm still missing 4 from that s -- have no idea what they are!

11:45 am

leighprefect

I'm having a hard enough time trying to find my 157th!

11:46 am

cybernan

got the coin -- down to 3

11:46 am

hurshy

well cnan, maybe that sc5 i just mentioned? and maybe the obtruding for bed and board (and related words) that tigereye mentioned?

11:46 am

hetty

cybernan: the hairnet? the boat? the clouds? Perhaps if I knew which words these were clues to, I could find them. Or not. Coffee has yet to =click in

11:46 am

hurshy

cnan, the longest of the obtruding words rhymes with co6 where two edges meet

11:47 am

cybernan

hetty -- they all begin with the s in the second row

11:47 am

cybernan

have that one, Hurshy

11:48 am

hurshy

sc 4/9 is the boat - a klingon once compared the enterprise to one, then corrected himself to say that she should be hauled away AS garbage (in the trouble with tribbles). this, and not the insults to kirk, caused scotty to start the bar fight.

11:49 am

hurshy

cnan - the rest are pretty normal, i'd run a plural and an -er check on your existing words

11:50 am

hurshy

(can you tell there are vestiges of ST day clinging to me?)

11:51 am

Chris P

11:58 am

cybernan

assuming the bad mood is a 4/4 and extension for 6

11:58 am

Jera

Do you have the hairnet, sn5/12?

11:58 am

hetty

YTes that's me told. I come from an alien culture, you know, having been raised on books and C.S.Lewis for fantasylands. Didn't even own a TV till I was 40 and thereafter left it to the children. SO anything I DO know about aforesaid wars and treks I learned from them. Now beam me up and let me down lighty. She has spok.

11:58 am

cybernan

bye Hurshy -- thanks for the attempt

11:59 am

cybernan

Yes, jera

11:59 am

Jera

That's a cool word, thought it might be the missing one...

11:59 am

Haz1558

Hetty - I'm completely clueless when it comes to sci-fi stuff as well. It leaves me cold, I'm afraid.

12:00 pm

cybernan

found them -- words I thought I'd entered last night.

12:04 pm

hetty

I spose Hursh has gone nw I need her. Just discovered the word I thought meant a boat is actually what clouds do. So I STILL need the boat-cum- space vessel referred to in my lesson. Please someone, help a pre-Starwars /Startrek mother of four coffee-drinker.

12:05 pm

Haz1558

hetty - can you specify point values etc of the word you are looking for?

12:06 pm

Haz1558

if it's sc 4/9 then it's s plus a bovine.

12:07 pm

Haz1558

And to quote Ogden Nash - The cow is of the bovine ilk, one end is moo, the other milk.

12:07 pm

hetty

Thankd Haz, got it! Now I know what vessel to call for when I imperiously demand water or space travel.

12:07 pm

cybernan

anyone have a clue for the do 8?

12:08 pm

leighprefect

do 8 is plural of do 7. =)

12:09 pm

cybernan

guess there is a third do 7?

12:09 pm

bbnaz

45 to go...........i think i can, i think i can

12:09 pm

Haz1558

do8 - take a vowel from the do4/5 (use to gain entry) then add no5/20. It sounds like what you would do to gain entry.

12:09 pm

leighprefect

Yes. After the plural of college housing.

12:11 pm

torgone

Thanx for that great clue, haz! I was going in6/18 looking for that ..

12:12 pm

Cath -- the portal through which you enter minus one of the vowels and then add on the way you announce yourself at said portal if there is no bell.

1:22 pm

Haz1558

The do8 DOES exist. It is a plural. Take a vowel from do4/5 (the entry) then add no5/20. (It rhymes with what you wear on your feet, under shoes)

1:23 pm

Potatoes

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh... thats what i was thinking. I just looked it up on dictionary.com and found that out just in time to come back and see that now everyone on babble thinks i am an idiot. Sorry guys!

I don't recall seeing it before Babbler. But she is very pretty.

1:26 pm

Babbler

1:27 pm

Deutsch

Babbler, I can't for the life of me remember the theme.
Hi everyone!

Tigereye

1:29 pm

hurshy

no i think it was before my time too (i joined last oct)

1:29 pm

hurshy

go SMF!!!!

1:29 pm

Deutsch

Hi musicmom! This is the very first zebra I ever used. I guess it predates themes.

1:29 pm

Babbler

nope, hursh - you were here when we started themes. : )

1:29 pm

musicmom

Yep I really liked it --- wanted to use it again. I haven't been pro long enough to really stump anyone.

1:29 pm

hurshy

oh that's true i was silly me

1:30 pm

Babbler

I remember yours, Deutsch. Very clever! : )

1:30 pm

BGL

1:31 pm

Deutsch

Hi BGL!

1:31 pm

musicmom

Hey BGL --- I picked up the cooler today. I also got the absolutely worst hair cut of my life yesterday. Went back and had her try to fix it today but --- well----- let's just say i hope I don't run into anyone in Tenn I know.

1:31 pm

hurshy

awww, SMF, then indirectly, sprite is your inspiration - she inspired atalante, who inspired me

1:31 pm

jeffer

i am badly stuck :
er 6/30
ko 6/33 please?

1:31 pm

BGL

I CAN'T wait to see the hair....

1:32 pm

Babbler

ok - Skimpy Saturday!! I was actually looking for the one I used for Nude Friday, that kick-started the whole theme thing off, but it wasn't in google anymore.

hursh, I can't make head nor tail of yours... :s

1:32 pm

musicmom

I actually came close to crying --- and you know I don't even really care what I look like. It is TERRIBLE!!!!!!!!

1:32 pm

hurshy

i tried to pick my hardest one :)

1:32 pm

hetty

Could someone please help me with the third du? I have the quacker and his buddy.

1:33 pm

musicmom

I don't remember it Hurshy.

1:33 pm

jeffer

musicmom if that is so, no-one will recognise you ...

1:33 pm

BGL

Too bad. I know I hate when I don't like my hair. Is it short? Lopsided? I know... You got a MULLET!

1:33 pm

Deutsch

MM. I'm so sorry to hear about your hairdon't!
Hurshy, I don't remember your theme, either.

1:33 pm

hurshy

then put the quacker and his buddy together, or consider simon and garfunkel, fred and ginger, etc

1:33 pm

musicmom

I certainly hope not Jeffer<G>

1:33 pm

Babbler

oh nooo, musicmom, I've been there, had terrible hair cuts. Some were so bad my friends didn't recognise me! Get some products and do something pretty with it while it grows out. That's what I tried to do. : )

1:34 pm

hurshy

ko 6/33 like haitian sorcery but with a k

1:34 pm

musicmom

Thanks Babbler and Deutsch. I knew i should have just left it long and one length.

1:34 pm

hurshy

mine was from 70's glam rock day - a glamorous pet rock (which were a fad of the 70's) :)

1:34 pm

hetty

jeffer, e6/30 looks like a compound out of Shakespeare--archaic term for "ever" plus term for right***

1:35 pm

musicmom

AHA ! I knew I had seen it Hurshy.

1:35 pm

1:37 pm

hetty

Hi Mikey. Glad to see your whole face, all of it.

1:37 pm

musicmom

1:38 pm

bbnaz

1:38 pm

BGL

HAve you started packing yet?

1:38 pm

1:38 pm

MikeyInBerlin

1:39 pm

1:39 pm

hetty

Ooops, I meant the "V"

1:39 pm

KatieMcG

Hi everyone, hope the week has been good to you. So glad to be back I'm going to try without the list tonight :)

1:39 pm

BGL

Me neither! I need to do some laundry and clean the house. JOsh did clean out the van and put the middle seat back in it yesterday.

1:39 pm

musicmom

Are you all packed?

1:39 pm

MikeyInBerlin

KatieW!!! :-)

1:40 pm

hetty

KatieW --welcomeback and good luck. I'm quite stymied.

1:40 pm

musicmom

I am going to clean out the van when the girls get home and can put stuff away for me. Sarah has her last choir concert tonight. I need to clean the house tonight too. Actually have too much to do to be doing this but I don't wanna.

1:40 pm

MikeyInBerlin

now.....why is everyone mentioning naked pics in here? :-/ darn.....that isn't today's theme, is it.....am i supposed to use a naked photo of me now? :-/

1:41 pm

hetty

Oooh Mikey. Yes please

1:41 pm

musicmom

Mikey - even if I posted a naked picture of me you all would be distracted by my hair.

1:41 pm

BGL

Yeah, I wanted to write my sermon today but I'm not motivated to do it. That means I either have to do it on vacation or next Saturday whenw e get home. I hate ahving to preach the day I get back from vacation.

1:42 pm

musicmom

BRB - Greg needs me.

1:42 pm

BGL

We can dye your hair tomorrow...

1:42 pm

BGL

I can bring Josh's clipper and we can buzz cut it...

1:43 pm

musicmom

The color isn't the problem - I did that recently. hmmmmm Greg might have something to say about a buzz cut. He could use one though<G>

1:43 pm

MikeyInBerlin

lol, musicmom; i think that would happen if i did that, too :-P and stop begging, Hetty.....i'm still trying to find out if that's the theme in here today, first! :-P lol

1:44 pm

musicmom

I'm playing this grid for 20 more minutes and then taking a break until after the concert tonight. I can get a bunch done before we go into town.

1:44 pm

jeffer

o got that ko/ btw hurshy ty

1:44 pm

BGL

but if we dye it a really obnoxious color, then people won't look at the style...

1:45 pm

musicmom

Mikey - the theme is "stump the babblers" pick an icon you used in the past and we have to guess what the theme was.

1:46 pm

jeffer

still chewin, hetty

1:46 pm

musicmom

BGL -- LOL I have some kool-aid. That's what the HS kids use.

1:46 pm

MikeyInBerlin

oh; ok, musicmom.....then i can't really participate, since i'm a fairly new member :-/

1:46 pm

BGL

Is it REALLY that bad? Will I be embarassed to be with you next week? Is Sarah embarrassed?

1:47 pm

MikeyInBerlin

gee; what happened to your hair, musicmom? :-/

1:47 pm

musicmom

Actually - Sarah was quite diplomatic last night (especially for her). She did ask me this morning if I was going back to get it done again. Yesterday it was the worst of an 80's mullet --- with my wave ICK!!!!

1:48 pm

BGL

We could go HAT shopping tomorrow...

1:48 pm

musicmom

I got a terrible cut Mikey and I'm using chatlog space to whine about it.

1:49 pm

musicmom

Now THERE is an idea!!! hats hmmmmmm

1:49 pm

BGL

Should I wrap Mom's final clue? Are we doing a cake?

1:50 pm

musicmom

Yes wrap mom's final clue. Let's skip the cake unless you really really want to

1:50 pm

Deutsch

I go away for a few minutes and Mikey is ready to get naked. The things you miss!

1:50 pm

stidmama

hi all -- looks like I'm not the only one to resort to the list sooner than other days!

1:51 pm

BGL

Nope, don't really wanna have cake... I ate so much Easter candy that I am miserable ;(

1:51 pm

musicmom

Hi stid

1:51 pm

MikeyInBerlin

1:52 pm

Deutsch

LOL Mikey!

1:52 pm

musicmom

I do have a bag of Hershey's special dark with nut miniatures to bring with us if you remind me to get it out of the pantry.

1:53 pm

stidmama

hi musicmom -- hi Deutsch! musicmmom, I have some extra hair if you want to have some -- have to keep leaning forward when I drive because it gets caught betwen me and the seat...

1:53 pm

BGL

OKay, I'm leaving for awhile. Going to go home and start laundry, then the weekly trip to the mall & WalMart when Josh gets home.
Talk to you later. I'll *try* to be finished when you come back after the concert, MM. :)

1:54 pm

musicmom

hey BGL --- do you think the rest of the babblers are going to be glad when we go so they don't have to listen to us plan this any more?

1:54 pm

musicmom

That would be great BGL.. Tell Josh not to dilly dally at the mall - you have a grid to finish.

1:55 pm

stidmama

hi bbnaz! BGL -- I just saw your post at 1:38 and it looked like you wrote "have you started _panicking_ yet" LOL made musicmom's talk about the hair even more meaninful!

1:55 pm

BGL

We'll just have to think of something else.
The other references did finally get their paperwork. So much for having the homestudy done before vacation... Next goal - by Josh's b-day

1:55 pm

Deutsch

MM, it's like trying to figure out a mystery! Bye BGL!

1:56 pm

BGL

We were just at the mall alst night. But then I received 2 bookstore coupons (30% off each) that have to be used by Sunday. So we're going back.

1:56 pm

musicmom

LOL stid.. Panicking happens tomorrow night.

1:56 pm

stidmama

later BGL!

1:56 pm

musicmom

Deutsch. We'll both be gone all week next week so it will be quiet and not confusing<G>

1:57 pm

BGL

See y'all later.
Tall Sarah to "break a leg" with her concert tonight.

1:58 pm

musicmom

will do

1:59 pm

stidmama

ummm musicmom, you might not want to advise Sarah to break a leg (or anything else) -- kids pick the strangest times to do what we tell them! LOL

1:59 pm

chic

Hi Guys, how's it going today?

1:59 pm

musicmom

That is EXACTLY what I was thinking STid. Oh well, if she does, BGL can carry her up the mountain.

1:59 pm

musicmom

Hi chic

1:59 pm

Babbler

egypt day!!

hi chic! : )

1:59 pm

stidmama

hi chic!

2:00 pm

Babbler

oh no, hang on, wasn't it Brandyjack Appreciation Day, and he wanted Egypt?

2:01 pm

hetty

May I please drag everyone back from themes and hair and things? I need one ma4--not the one the lion has or the one expressive of a large quantity. I stop pleading, Mikey, for now.

2:01 pm

chic

Hi MM and Babbler, you are correct! Egypt day!

2:02 pm

MikeyInBerlin

'for now', Hetty? :-/ oh, great.....just.....great :-P
and hi, Chic; how's it going today? :-)

2:02 pm

musicmom

Can't help you hetty. Sorry

2:02 pm

stidmama

hetty -- spanish for hand?

2:02 pm

Haz1558

Hetty - it may be the horse one with a different vowel ending.

2:02 pm

musicmom

Yes I can --- latin? for hand

2:03 pm

musicmom

Okay so it is spanish instead of latin ---it isn't english.

2:03 pm

MikeyInBerlin

oh, Hazel.....nice doggy.....is that a Springer Spaniel....i think? or a Brittany, perhaps?

2:03 pm

stidmama

Mikey -- how about one of the pics of you all dressed up for CATS? that's almost as good as hetty's idea... *wicked grin*

2:03 pm

FMitch

Babbler you're absoutely right, it was BJ's appreciation day - I suggested Egyptian and he said yes!! :)

2:04 pm

Haz1558

Spangle is a Welsh Springer Spaniel - 5 years old and very good company.

2:04 pm

MikeyInBerlin

but, stidmama; that doesn't apply to today's theme :-/ it's not one i can participate in really, since i haven't been a member here very long yet!

2:04 pm

musicmom

we still want to see it mikey

2:04 pm

MikeyInBerlin

ah, ok Hazel; i was thinking that was a Springer, ja; wasn't sure whether English or Welsh, though.....lovely dog! :-)

2:04 pm

hetty

Thanks, both! OOO for a man (like Mikey)

2:05 pm

stidmama

the _real_ idea here is to "stump the others" and see if they can guess which theme it was... :-)

2:06 pm

MikeyInBerlin

you want to see *what*, musicmom.....me, naked??? :-o sheesh.....it's never safe for me in here, i tell you!!! :-/

2:06 pm

FMitch

Evening Haz, good day?

2:06 pm

Babbler

ooh, hi FMitch!! I remember yours from that day too! : )

2:06 pm

musicmom

NOOO you dressed up like cats. <G>

2:07 pm

stidmama

So, does that mean Spangle uses really long words with lots of llwllylls in them? [sure hope that's not a cuss word in Welsh...]

2:07 pm

Haz1558

Hello, FMitch - yes, it's been fine. I've been doing bits and pieces around the house. The sun has been shining so that's always a bonus, and the grid was fun.

2:07 pm

MikeyInBerlin

hmm, musicmom; i've dressed up as *a* cat before, but never cats.....i'd need a few heads and tails for that, wouldn't i? and lots and lots of legs/paws.....i'd be in a tangle!!! :-P

2:07 pm

musicmom

BRB --- girls just got home.

2:08 pm

FMitch

yea, it was a good grid today, really enjoyed it.

2:08 pm

Haz1558

Spangle only speaks English (of the dog variety)

2:10 pm

stidmama

well, this is fun, folks, but I gotta run again. see you all this evening, I hope.

2:11 pm

chic

Hi Stid and Mikey!

2:11 pm

Deutsch

Okay I'm in theme mode

2:12 pm

musicmom

LOL Mikey --- You are teasing. I want to see what Stid was talking about.

2:14 pm

FMitch

ooooh Deutch, I remember finding a couple of Bridget Riely icons for my theme that day

2:14 pm

Babbler

oooh, Deutsch! let me see..... Black & White Ball?

2:15 pm

Babbler

or was it Marbles, and we ended up going black and white because of your icon?

2:16 pm

Deutsch

I almost threw my marble frock on babbler.
Fmitch, I remember, I looked her up!

2:16 pm

musicmom

Is there a ts word today?

2:16 pm

Deutsch

And it's not black and white ball...

2:16 pm

FMitch

No there isn't musicmom

2:16 pm

Haz1558

No, musicmom, there isn't.

2:16 pm

musicmom

Thank you! That helps.

2:17 pm

Babbler

I saw in a mag just yesterday that you can buy Bridget Riley prints for around Â£1,500 upwards!! wow...

2:17 pm

Haz1558

Examples of how English word order can be variable....

2:19 pm

Deutsch

babbler, I think the theme was anj's. And he chose fractals.

2:20 pm

Babbler

ahaa!! I was just wondering if it was a fractal!! : D

2:21 pm

Deutsch

That's it, babbler!

2:21 pm

Hello smithchick - the puzzle is fun today.

2:36 pm

hetty

For or5, pluralize the Lating term for "bird" (ie. add an "s")

2:36 pm

Haz1558

or5/10 - think of the proper word for bird-watchers - use first four letters and pluralise.

Hi mama!

2:46 pm

smithchick

Hey, mamabear and anyone else who just came on. I got a little sidetracked.

2:46 pm

MikeyInBerlin

oh ja, evanonut.....hehe; good thinking.....smaller would never want to eat it after it's been there! :-P lol

2:46 pm

Haz1558

Most of the s 6 are normal - have you the comparative so6/18 for the so4/4 (rhymes with the disdainful sc5?)

2:46 pm

evanonut

nudity is not a good thing in here mikey

2:47 pm

MikeyInBerlin

no, evanonut; but i thought it was the 'theme' earlier

2:48 pm

MikeyInBerlin

MAMABEAR? :-/
hmm; guess you missed my greeting? :-/

2:48 pm

cybernan

have the fooler, the one with the double vowel, the eye part, the right angle and the cigar -- clue for the missing co 6?

2:49 pm

smithchick

Hey Mikey! I always want to say Hey Mikey, he likes it!

2:50 pm

Dachef

cnan - halo around the sun, or relly crappy beer thats only redeeming feature is it comes with a lime in the bottle.

2:50 pm

sandr

hi - can you tell me what advantages there are to turning pro?

2:50 pm

MikeyInBerlin

ah; ja, smithchick.....i have a yahoo id called that!
well, 'mikey_mag_es'.....which is how you say it auf Deutsch, of course :-P

2:51 pm

MikeyInBerlin

ah well........i guess?
*shrugs and returns to finishing the grid*

2:51 pm

cybernan

have that, Haz it's also a cigar -- are there 6 - 6's? or is it a five that I'm missing (have 5 of them)?

2:52 pm

smithchick

Fun, mikey... Angie doesn't lend itself to much fun. Of course there is Helen Reddy's Angie baby and the Stones' Angie.

2:53 pm

Dachef

cnan - only five co6/s.

And I am done! Thats the biggest grid Ive ever solved without the list!

<cracks open celebratory can of beer>

2:53 pm

smithchick

WooHoo Dachef!!!!

2:53 pm

cybernan

sandr -- you get a stats board that helps you to figure out what you're missing and which letter it begins with (location on the grid) -- also you have the fun of playing with icons and you can let us all know a little bit about you with your profile. Another plus, is that the money goes towards supporting a site without a whole bunch of popups!

2:53 pm

Tigereye

Cnan: Co 4x8,5x5,6x5,7x5

2:54 pm

Haz1558

Congratulations dachef!

2:54 pm

FMitch

sandr - the main beneift i found from going pro is the grid that show where the starting letters are, really useful when you are getting stuck to to the end of a grid as you know how to work the letter combos.
And then you have the icon and bio bits too. :)

2:54 pm

Deutsch

sandr
advantages of pro, you get an icon with profile
You get the flip to stats, which lets you flip to see how many words start with each letter.

2:56 pm

Bugzy

Hi Folks :)
Can anyone help on my last 2 - the ro5/10 and ro6/18 ?
(I have the ro5/10 that a bird sits on...)
Thanks!!

2:56 pm

Dachef

sandr - on a cautionary note, I convinced my mum to go pro, and she hates it because now she knows how many words she hasnt found!!

It does make it easier to solve though, and when the little boxes go grey (meaning you have found all words begiining with that letter), it is very satisfying in a rather pathetic way!

2:56 pm

cybernan

I must be missing a co 5 then -- have the call, the dove, the utensil for removing the centre of fruit, the plant root, and the things on your toes that hurt --- missing?

2:57 pm

sandr

the sudoku site lets you complete the archived puzzle though and increase your rankings. Thats not possible here? I thought it migh tbe good to print out old (not completed puzzles) when going on holiday and then fill them in when back -

2:57 pm

Dachef

ro 5+6: ro+ "all ***ners will burn in hell". Problee.

2:57 pm

6:16 pm

bbnaz

those CO words go on forever...........

6:18 pm

bbnaz

here i am
question me
i will try
to answer

6:18 pm

chic

Ren, I have to lay down for a bit. yell for me when you're ready to play..:-)

6:18 pm

renfield

ok chic - give me a couple of hours.

6:18 pm

stidmama

okay, bbnaz -- you asked for it (and I have witnesses)

6:18 pm

BGL

bbnaz~ since no one else is taking you up on your offer... how about the first wo6/30?

6:19 pm

kumquat

hee hee. remember those scarves people used to wear a few years back that were like a tube? 5 letters

6:19 pm

stidmama

the last two co -- please, and the last two en, and the first er....

we'll start with those :-)

6:20 pm

bbnaz

BGL - when you come in first you are the WI****. just exchange the "i" for the "o"

then make it plural

6:21 pm

bbnaz

STID

CO
the guy who looks at dead folks
and
the price of something

6:21 pm

BGL

Thanks! I would have NEVER tried that one... are we sure it's a word...

6:22 pm

kumquat

which one BGL?

6:22 pm

bbnaz

ER
er + 4th vowel + snake letter
&
ER**while (without the while)

6:24 pm

bbnaz

oops Stid

the EN is the beginning of something REALLY BIG

the other EN finishes with the cry you make when you hammer your finger with a hammer (not OUCH)

6:25 pm

bbnaz

as for the first ER
think cockney dropping the "h" when they are stopping a flow of conversation....

not there but hER* + not later but ***

6:26 pm

stidmama

bbnaz-- these are all good and helpful cluse... I am not sure the cry *i* make when I hammer my hand is in this grid... ;-)

6:26 pm

bbnaz

like i said, i can confuse

6:26 pm

BGL

I agree stid... there's no "f" in the grid! :)

6:26 pm

bbnaz

the circular vowel and the upside down m

6:27 pm

BGL

How about the last 2 in's

6:27 pm

bbnaz

ROFLMFAO

too good

chortling away here

6:27 pm

stidmama

bbnaz -- i got it! *I only use those "other" words when my kids are NOT around*

6:27 pm

bbnaz

well i am really "crazy"
and even "crazier"

6:28 pm

lynxxx

I'm stuck on last RO 5.10 & 6.18and the second EN5.12 pls

6:28 pm

bbnaz

it is so nice to be able to give help after taking it so often!

6:28 pm

BGL

Let me get this straight... pfft IS a word and tisk is NOT a word?!

6:29 pm

bbnaz

Lynxxx
would that be the white stuff that gymnasts put on their hands? both singular and plural

6:30 pm

bbnaz

Lynxxx

something that is really huge is EN + round vowel + hook letter + upside down "w"

6:30 pm

bbnaz

BGL

that would be tssk tssk

6:30 pm

lynxxx

probably bbnaz - if I knew what it was!

6:31 pm

stidmama

is that the ro that violinists use on their bows?

6:31 pm

bbnaz

RO + snake letter + third vowel + upside down "u"

6:31 pm

bbnaz

yipperee Stid

6:32 pm

bbnaz

BGL did you get the IN?

6:32 pm

kumquat

ahhh, i thought that was just for violins!

6:32 pm

lynxxx

TY BB and stid.

6:33 pm

BGL

No, I'm still trying ... "crazy" huh?

6:33 pm

bbnaz

gymnasts use it too. that is generally before the vault, rings, bars et cetera

6:34 pm

bbnaz

In + snake + first vowel + upside down "u" + second vowel

then again with second vowel on the end followed by hook letter

6:34 pm

stidmama

BBnaz, still working on that first er + "this point in time"? but that's only five letters, and not a wurd in the grid...

6:34 pm

harpjane

ro4/5? I have the medieval cross. I'm lost on the other. Thanks!

6:34 pm

BGL

Duh! I would ahve gotten there ... eventually! :)

6:35 pm

BGL

Thanks bbnaz

6:36 pm

stidmama

bbnaz -- i just got it -- the brains are a little slow today...

6:36 pm

bbnaz

Hey Harp....try the stone word without the "k" and put the snake on the end

6:37 pm

bbnaz

Harp....
RO + third letter + snake

6:37 pm

kumquat

ro 4/5 sounds like it should be told off

6:38 pm

harpjane

youse guys are great! Thanks! I have seven to go, all d and e's. Will catch them later, after a fundraiser gig. off to harp land!

6:38 pm

stidmama

6:41 pm

Angela

Hey everybody.

6:42 pm

bbnaz

Those COs were deadly for me.

Kumquat...how many more to finish?

6:42 pm

kumquat

6:43 pm

bbnaz

Billie Joe -- how does it feel to just finish recording your first record???

Angela

6:46 pm

kumquat

6:46 pm

kumquat

6:47 pm

bbnaz

couple of the 7s are the same first word with both circular vowels there + male singular
then again with the male made plural

6:47 pm

kumquat

6:48 pm

bbnaz

more sevens
the fellow who examines the deceased
the part of your eye that can be transplanted plural (and it is singular too)

6:48 pm

bbnaz

6:58 pm

bbnaz

ExWren

7:04 pm

ExWren

a do4/5 but sounds plural

7:04 pm

hetty

I think the icon is wieners and beans. Don't know why I chose it, except that as a rookie I didn't feel sure how to proceed. I'll try another when I have time

cliffopa, guigirl, one of my cats was mauled by a dog 'who just loves cats' two summers ago. It was awful, but she survived after several surgeries and is perfect now. I'm so sorry, guigirl for your experience - how utterly traumatizing. And cliff, a little kitten!

8:21 pm

cliffopa

the dog was some kind of terrier. the owners also had this kitten. they wanted to get rid of the kitten and keep the dog, so the vet called to ask if i would take the kitten. apparently a biting dog was more appealing.

Hi cliff-you're back too. Sounds like the kitty needs a little sedative slipped into her dinner(-:

Years ago I was washing dishes, looking out the kitchen window, and saw our 17 year old cat being mauled by 2 of the neighbor's dogs. It was a 25 minute drive to the vets, she had punctured lungs, fractured, ribs, and we didn't think she'd make it. But she was a tough old lady and came through it fine. The neighbor's didn't want to pay for the vet bills, despite the fact that their dogs were roaming free, because "if it had been our cat we would have had her put down".

Stid, you are suh a faithful helper. I ask you, does the
elusive "w" word seem possible, grammatically? Anyway, youve helped me find it.All I'm missing now is the ro4/5. Shall I go through a list again and risk using some (gulp) words?

10:27 pm

72 Temple Owl

The mythical bird doesn't seem to be in the enaber list, I'll try monkeying. I have the Cross synonym. One of my favourite Anglo-Saxon poems is "The Dream Of the ****"

10:31 pm

stidmama

hetty, i'm pretty sure what you're missing is ro 5/20 minus the k

10:34 pm

stidmama

hetty are you sure your last word is a 4/8 and not a 4/9? there is an ro 4/9 that means stone...

10:36 pm

lynxxx

I have got only 4 left - can anyone help with
DO4.5 & 5.12 (first set I think - have the person who does) - then DO 5.12 (before the thing you open) - and lastly DO 4.5 - the last one. TY

10:37 pm

stidmama

last do 4/5 is easiest... the things you go in and out of less a vowel.

10:38 pm

stidmama

first do 4/5: italian for "lady", could also mean "to give" in Latin
the do 5 is the plural of course

10:38 pm

stidmama

do 5/12 before the thing you open... is "one who receives" (as opposed to one who gives) ends with a double vowel

10:38 pm

LeslieAnn

do 4/5 - the do*** with jim morrison, minus an o

10:39 pm

stidmama

gotta give the dog some medicine BRB

Goodnight, sweethearts

Thank you ever so

11:00 pm

Looks like one hour left... I am multitasking (again) if anyone else needs clues, just ask!

11:03 pm

SueQ

Okay, I'm missing osme wo's. The first wo6/30 and the first wo5/18

11:03 pm

talk24hr

hi everyone :) how goes it?

11:06 pm

stidmama

hi talk!

11:06 pm

talk24hr

hey stid... wassup?

11:07 pm

stidmama

the first wo 6/30: opposite of loser, change the first vowel (the 7 is the plural)

11:07 pm

talk24hr

i think i've come to the conclusion i probably won't finish most grids on here.... but i'm mastering iron sodoku lol my vocab sucks

11:08 pm

stidmama

the first wo 5/18: one who courts (old-fashioned term for a fella who wants to catch a gal), the six is the plural, the 4 immediately after is the act of doing this...

11:09 pm

stidmama

I came to the opposite conclusion when I started -- the sudoku was brutal for me, but i didn't mind mucking about in the grid! LOL

11:09 pm

SueQ

Stid, you are amazing

11:09 pm

stidmama

*blush* aw, shucks!

11:10 pm

SueQ

By the way, that's my granddaughter, wassup's daughter

11:10 pm

stidmama

she's adorable! four? five?

11:11 pm

stidmama

mine, of course, left adorable behind a looong time ago! 11 and 13... their own challenges and advantages, to be sure! But not adorable...

11:12 pm

talk24hr

lol I can figure the grids out if i use the a-z sheetsand resources like that ... but most nights i can only get through a little over half and then i throw in the towel. plus i like to be able to figure out the words on my own or with clues, not by using the a-z things... with sodoku it's all on me

11:12 pm

SueQ

5, she's my oldest grandbaby, her brother is 4
other daughter has a 10 month old and is expecting any day

11:13 pm

The Student

I cant believe that korma doesn't get in.

11:13 pm

stidmama

You sound like the proudest grandma I've ever heard! My two are the only ones my mother will have, but my mother in law will have 6 soon (her only daughter is also expecting her second)

11:15 pm

stidmama

good morning student! there have been some rather interesting omissions lately, and quite a few puzzling inclusions!

11:16 pm

OwlMovement

11:22 pm

SueQ

a littel help with do7/52, and i assume the plural is do8/70?

11:23 pm

stidmama

hmm -- not as old as the hills, but older than the trees... LOL (can you tell I'll hit forty soon?)
today I didn't much, actually except try to ignore the migraine -- usually I'm just a mom with a big garden!

11:24 pm

stidmama

yes, do 7/52: one vowel short of a walk-through opening + no 4/9

then plural for the 8

11:27 pm

SueQ

Good grief, that was random, thanks again stidmama

11:27 pm

stidmama

anyone else want help?

11:28 pm

stidmama

and fyi, the do 7/52 is defined as "A coarse sort of damask, originally made at Tournay (in Flemish, Doornick), Belgium, and used for hangings, carpets, etc. Also, a stout figured linen manufactured in Scotland."

11:40 pm

SueQ

er6/30?

11:42 pm

stidmama

er 6/30: old-fashioned way of saying "before this moment;"
h*** and ***

11:47 pm

SueQ

stid...huh?

11:47 pm

stidmama

okay -- compound word, first part is last three letters of the word meaning "this place" h*** + a three letter word meaning "this minute"

11:50 pm

stidmama

more help on the er 6 -- second vowel + short hook consonant before s + repeat the vowel + single hump consonant + round vowel + letter before x

11:51 pm

SueQ

Bless you, got it

11:51 pm

stidmama

whew! that 's a tough one to clue for!

11:59 pm
