12:28 am

LeslieAnn

12:28 am

corpsvalue

this grid is causing me frustraTION. How's that?

12:28 am

12:32 am

LeslieAnn

12:32 am

denbrig

good morning, does anyone know how many words there are on this puzzle?

12:32 am

hurshy

lol sorry unclear, up late you know

12:33 am

LeslieAnn

hmmm, if anyone considers this cheating, put on your earmuffs... would you mind telling me the fourth letter, hursh?

12:34 am

hurshy

a definition might be more useful...

12:34 am

LeslieAnn

wait, never mind, i think my logic was wrong anyway

12:34 am

ChiUnit

yeah that might be useful

12:34 am

Munner

Shocked that "nohit" is not a word. My 2 year old grandson repeats it everytime he gets in trouble for hitting!

LeslieAnn

12:40 am

corpsvalue

Chi, it always takes me a while! I swear the clue could be "Cat on a Hot Tin R---" and I would still be: "Can I have the second letter please? I'm stuck!"

12:40 am

ChiUnit

12:40 am

LeslieAnn

1:14 am

LeslieAnn

1:17 am

pwinn

Finally! All the Qus.

1:17 am

1:20 am

hurshy

dianne she was saying she had 16 of the 24 from the left S

1:20 am

Dianne

Thanks - I was so confused.

1:27 am

hurshy

lucky how that works out.

1:28 am

pwinn

Imagine how humble I feel, with 67 left!

1:28 am

Dianne

and me with 64 left !

1:29 am

mab

I'm extremely humblied by the 'easy' sudoku I've just been working on for an hour. I may such silly mistakes - like forgeting to mark the twos.

1:37 am

hurshy

1:38 am

Munner

tags

3:04 am

Haz1558

Jess - have you got the plural tops of jars (li4/5)? Take off the plural letter, add a vowel and you have a swmming pool, then pluralise it. It goes nicely with the Venice themed do4/7 and 5/16 which you already have.

3:06 am

jess is cool l

thats pretty complicated

3:06 am

Haz1558

Just like me.... Take it one step at a time.

3:07 am

jess is cool l

5:36 am

kkiln

Dianne -- did not find the clue you gave Caitlin...anything else?

5:38 am

Dianne

kkiln - it is a compound word. the second part of it refers to something being substantial/dense.

5:39 am

rolin

is the no8 a plural of the 7?...(not that i have that... ) and is it a compund word?

5:45 am

rolin

oh..pls..dont mention rain this side of the world..lol..its just been too terrible.. just as long as hewitt wins and henman desnt ..lol

5:46 am

mrpresident

hewitt is playing against montcourt (french) so the crowd is on the side of the underdog! is henman still playing??

5:47 am

rolin

weeeell..as much as hes ever 'played'...*ducking looking round for any english*...and the french can be really rude

5:47 am

Uneaixoise

i agree--they shouldn't have booed Andy yesterday--he played as long as he could on his injured ankle

5:47 am

mrpresident

they are rude!!

5:48 am

rolin

they dont seem to care about the difference between supporting the home player..and using that suppoort to actually interfere with the opponents play

5:49 am

mrpresident

they whistle and scream and spit and are gross all round .... but I think that is standard for lizards too

5:49 am

Uneaixoise

true--i like a lot of things about France and the French but not the sportsmanship (or lack thereof)

5:49 am

Uneaixoise

mrp!

5:50 am

mrpresident

what! I said it!!

5:50 am

rolin

lmao... i miss aussie humour

5:50 am

good morning everyone. Been lurking for a while, scratching blackfly bites, contemplating a rainy(yet again)world. Whar a full life!

5:53 am

Uneaixoise

5:54 am

mrpresident

morning Eva!

5:54 am

Eva

5:55 am

aleksia

morning eva, uneaixoise and rolin!

5:56 am

rolin

hey fran

5:56 am

Eva

hi fran.

5:56 am

Uneaixoise

hey, fran

5:56 am

Eva

Clliff-you've been awfully quiet lately-or we just haven't been on at the same time. Everything okay?

5:58 am

mrpresident

mmmm, spinach and fish for dinner! god help me through this!

5:58 am

cliffopa

hi eva. one of my best friends is dying from a rare cancer. he only got diagnosed a month ago. he was supposed to have 3 - 6 months, but now has only days. he has pneumonia now and his digestive tract has shut down. also, another medical emergency with one of my cats.

5:59 am

Eva

clliff-I'm so sorry to hear about your friend. Are you able to spend time with him? So hard. May he be free from suffering.

6:00 am

Eva

and is the kitty going to be okay?

6:00 am

cliffopa

both my husband and i are spending part of every day with him. this friend introduced us 11 yrs ago - he also sold us his house 7 yrs ago.

6:01 am

cliffopa

the cat will be okay. my big himalayan bit my 'tuxedo' cat zoey at the base of her tail. she got an abcess, which had to be lanced.

6:02 am

cliffopa

when it rains, it pours.

6:03 am

Eva

In tibetan buddhism, when one spends time with a dying loved one, much of the time is spent reminding them of all they have given, how they have been of service. It sounds like you and your friend have much to remember in this way. He gave you some of the most important things in your life and now you are giving him the gift of your presence and love.

6:04 am

Tiny

oils

6:05 am

cliffopa

oh eva, now you've got me crying - but what you said was so wonderful.

6:05 am

Tiny

yes I agree Eva

6:05 am

Tiny

Hi all

6:06 am

mrpresident

cliff, give him as much love and commend him on his time, I am sorry he is dying... he must be so sad for you to see him like that. I pray he passes quickly and you heal from this loss.

6:08 am

cliffopa

thank you mr p. he has such an upbeat attitude about all this, even though it has been so sudden. he has been comforting all of his many friends who visit him.

6:09 am

mrpresident

what a strong beautiful soul! you can't kill weed! he is obviously a rose amongst the thorns of life!

6:09 am

Eva

This life, as humans, is very beautiful and very hard. As much as the commercials tell us otherwise, we can't avoid the pain. What we can do, if we have the courage, is to be of true company to each other-not an easy thing to do, speak the truth to each other, look lilfe straight in the face, warts and all. The at least we live while we live. Sounds like your friend has been truly alive. Not many people can say that. And of course the crying is fine.

6:13 am

cliffopa

i've really been missing all the wonderful people who 'babble.' everyone is so supportive of each other. but now i have to go do wound care for my cat before going to work for a bit. thanks again.

6:14 am

Eva

And tell your himalayan to get a grip! Or was he provoked? Merps' predecessor, Jose, was an avid huntres and an outdoor/indoor cat. She was forever getting bitten by chipmunks,etc (justifiable self-defense) and then getting secreet abscesses which i wouldn't know about until suddenly she spiked high fevers.

6:14 am

Eva

Take care cliff

6:17 am

Good Morning, Babblers!

A panda goes into a cafÃ©, eats a sandwich, and then takes out a gun. He fires two shots into the air and moves toward the door. Perplexed, the bartender asks him why he did that. "I'm a panda," he replies, tossing a badly-punctuated wildlife manual at the man. "Look it up." Inside, the panda's entry reads as follows: "Panda. Large bear-like mammal native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves."

9:38 am

Bugzy

Hi rumple... Wasn't she scheduled for Friday? I wasn't here over the weekend, so I'm kinda out of it...

9:38 am

amandacath

this is getting a bit scary, jbp - those are exactly the do's I have...

9:39 am

jbp

it must be Jed...

9:39 am

bunnyvicious

JBP, do you have the canine with the vowel at the end and it's plural (do 4/7 and do 5/16)?

9:43 am

Alien

can I get a clue for the 9 please.

9:43 am

72 Temple Owl

use do5/12 -= it's a compund word

9:43 am

amandacath

Yes, Hydra! Then it would be a COBOLarium!

9:44 am

bunnyvicious

no 8/45 & no 9/60 - not liquid and plural

9:44 am

72 Temple Owl

pardon me, i meant so5/12

9:37 pm

Uneaixoise

al6/21=al + do4/5

9:38 pm

kristinc

I haven't done that yet firefly but it would probably be nice now that I have a little more time on my hands...good advice, thanks!

9:38 pm

LeslieAnn

ping, change the last letter of your "against" prefix, and make it plural

9:38 pm

LeslieAnn

also, ping, if you don't know someone's name they are ****ymous

9:38 pm

chic

theree's an 5/10 and 6/18, an4/4, an 4/4, an 5/10 and an4/4

9:39 pm

firefly779

10:08 pm
