1:20 am

kier - I used to get weekend headaches, sometimes migraines. Finally figured out it was because I wasn't drinking coffee and eating sugary things that I did every day at the office. A complicated thing involving yeast - I don't get them anymore.

1:20 am

kierlex

i was such an ugly duckling in high school. and junior high.

1:20 am

libarebel

did you break the camera, helen? -D

1:20 am

helenkeller

1:25 am

JGalloway

1:26 am

helenkeller

LOL kier!!

1:26 am

helenkeller

1:30 am

broll

kier - that's like almost a deal giveaway clue. I had the blood tests too. Read up on yeast imbalance and go cold turkey on the sugar and carbs. You will be amazed how much better you feel on the 5th day. (But you will feel like sh** till then - the Herksheimer effect.)

1:30 am

mymuseisme

Preethi

1:42 am

broll

kier - one good book is "The Yeast Connection and the Woman" by Dr. Crook, although he tends to belabor the point and your eyes start to glaze over about halfway through.

1:44 am

kierlex

i think i would die if i didn't get to drink coca cola =(

1:45 am

kierlex

thank you broil, i will look into this more when i am more laert. added the book to my email reminders

I live here, never leave

2:02 am

jillibus

too many

2:02 am

Cat9x

Hi Jm :)

2:02 am

aleksia

lol

2:02 am

sprite

JMann: it's fun, but very frustrating today.

2:02 am

kierlex

too many hours on babble when i should be sleeping or doing the dishes or paying bills or or or or

2:02 am

JMann

hey Cat - like the icon for today

2:03 am

JMann

thanks Sprite for the heads up

2:03 am

Cat9x

Thanks JM, I haven't changed much, a little more gray :)

2:04 am

sprite

You are SO pretty, Cat!

2:04 am

Cat9x

THere isn't enough money to make me put my hideous HS pic on here lol

2:04 am

Cat9x

Why thank you sprite! :)

2:04 am

JMann

oh, i don't believe that - you look just the same as you did in HS

2:04 am

JMann

the glasses really do it

2:05 am

Cat9x

You're eyes are probably going JM, but I'll agree anyway LOL

2:05 am

JMann

lol

2:05 am

Cat9x

The glasses complete my ensemble :)

2:06 am

Cat9x

If you can't tell by the pic, I was very popular in HS, or was it just the tongue thing I had going, hmmmm

2:06 am

sprite

Ok. No sacrifice, no hernia, no recollect, no ocelot, no screech, no endorfine. I am starting to hate this grid.

2:06 am

jean1953

good morning everybody:)

2:06 am

Cat9x

ok, 'nuf, back to the grid :)

2:07 am

JMann

hello jean

2:07 am

Cat9x

good morning jean :)

2:07 am

mattygroves

Crikey - long one - I'd liked the short grids. Re icon - well, my high school picture is in the States, so settle for me rendered as a South Park character :D

2:07 am

sprite

I don't think you can attribute that to only one thing, Cat. The purple hair, the look in that pretty eye, that tongue thing, the glasses... it's all working together :D

2:07 am

JMann

I know - it's the whol package - hair, glasses, necklace AND tongue

2:08 am

Cat9x

Why thank you sprite, how sweet! I was hot huh :)

2:08 am

Cat9x

LOL JM

2:08 am

mattygroves

Phantom word - hernia

2:09 am

Cat9x

yup, and we have more Matty :) lot's more!

2:09 am

sprite

Yeah matty. And endorphin. And sacrifice. And recollect. Join the club, LOL!

2:10 am

BGL

new phantom word - escort

2:10 am

mattygroves

Oh dear - phantom word city, ay? How's the eights and nines - real words or weird words?

2:10 am

mab

solstice

2:10 am

FMitch

take out a letter and you will get an es5!

2:10 am

sprite

Right mab,that one too!

2:10 am

BGL

The 2 8 letter ones that I have are real words

2:10 am

Cat9x

real words Matty, nothing too wierd

2:10 am

FMitch

Morning all

2:11 am

JMann

good morning FM

2:11 am

sprite

Hey FMitch. Welcome to this teaser grid!

2:11 am

Cat9x

good morning FM :)

2:11 am

FMitch

It is, I've just crossed the 1/2 way point and am pausing for breath.

2:11 am

mab

i don't have my picture either, mattiegroves (had the school burned down before the yearbooks could be distributed), but this modigliani is pretty close.

2:12 am

Cat9x

we have a cereal in the grid, plural

2:12 am

Cat9x

oops, meant not plural

2:12 am

mattygroves

Hey Mab - is your name buffy, then? (the Movie and Season 3...) OK, I'm an anorak

2:13 am

sprite

The i8/9 combo makes me feel very humble indeed.

2:13 am

mab

i'm not familiar with buffy, sadly.

2:13 am

mattygroves

Like I said, I'm sad... LOL

2:14 am

mattygroves

Does it now Sprite? Care to elaborate :D

2:14 am

sprite

That was a clue, matty ;)

2:14 am

Cat9x

Clue, they are in's :)

2:15 am

mattygroves

Yes...I'd guessed that. He!

2:15 am

mab

the answer to which, sprite, i nearly typed in the chat

2:16 am

sprite

Hehehe, that would have been a shame for who hasn't found them yet, but it happens. All the time! :)

2:17 am

JMann

didn't we just have a discussion about that last night?

2:18 am

sprite

We did. We almost do that every day. Guess we all want to be free from the post-word-in-chatlog curse.

2:18 am

mattygroves

Got it...was a lesser evil than I thought ;)

2:18 am

mab

I did love 'Charmed,' though matty, which I'm thinking is sort of similiar. So I'm sad too.

2:19 am

sprite

matty: it leads to the An8 as well :)

2:20 am

mab

thank you sprite

2:21 am

Cat9x

I kept trying to plural that an8

2:21 am

mattygroves

I had a colleague who loved Charmed - I watched it, but liked Buffy better (and Star Trek, Stargate and the new Doctor Who rocks seriously)

2:21 am

Cat9x

ante

2:21 am

sprite

And rightly so. Only stupid enable doesn't agree, Cat :(

2:21 am

mattygroves

Thanks Sprite!

2:21 am

Cat9x

yikes, sorry!

2:21 am

helenary

anyone a fan of "balltlestar gallactica"?

2:22 am

mattygroves

Me, me *raises hand frantically*

2:22 am

Atalante

only the original film .... I haven't watched any of the new series (yet!)

2:23 am

helenary

wellll!!! My son is a major diector of that, she says proudly, in fact he in Vanvouver working on an episode as we spaeak

2:23 am

sprite

Wow helenary, that makes you almost an insider!

2:24 am

mab

is it your birthday, atalante!?

2:24 am

helenary

don't follow the week by week stuff. Its bigger in USA than Aussieland

2:25 am

mattygroves

I've seen most of Season 2, and Sky1 are re-running season 1. Given my backwards watching, I'll then watch the DVD of the miniseries. It's fab, but unrelentingly grim! I like Vancouver. Stargate's made there as well (and I've been to the city in 1986)

2:25 am

helenary

it won Peabody and Hugo awards, she says humbly again!!!

2:25 am

mattygroves

Who's your son?

2:26 am

helenary

look for his name Michael Rymer

2:26 am

sprite

You must be very proud of him :)

2:26 am

mattygroves

I will - it's on tonight on Sky!

2:27 am

mab

That is really something, helenary! A director! I don't know a soul in show business and am quite impressed. wow!

2:27 am

helenary

oh great..he has done many many of the episodes. I met all the cast a couple years back in Vancouver. They are like a family now

2:28 am

Atalante

yup! and I feel like having birthday cakes as no-one else is here to say I can't have cake for breakfast apart from pup and kit!

2:28 am

helenary

thanks for that. I'll tell hime. Thinks I am nuts babbling. Have to go and work for an hour. seeya

2:28 am

FMitch

Happy Birthday Atalante!!!!!

2:29 am

2:30 am

Atalante

2:30 am

BGL

YUMMM! Love chocolate cake for breakfast! Happy Birthday!

2:30 am

Cat9x

2:32 am

Oh cat, that is precious! I love the little stuck out tongue.

2:33 am

Cat9x

Thank you Mab :)

2:35 am

sprite

Ata, I see fireworks. Must be in your honor! :)

2:36 am

Atalante

woot!!!

2:36 am

FMitch

Congrats sprite

2:36 am

Cat9x

Sprite? Already? wow! congrats!

2:36 am

Atalante

I'm trying to babble at the same time as playing with my new toy - a drawing tablet for my computer, and failing to anything much with either!

2:36 am

mab

ooooh! ahhhhhhh! well done sprite!

2:36 am

Angelsong

Atalante, happy birthday! I just added you to the Babble Birthdays Calendar.

2:37 am

amandacath

How do you do it Sprite?

2:37 am

Cat9x

Have fun Ata, it's your day!!!

2:37 am

mab

oh ata, that sounds fun.

2:37 am

amandacath

Oooo, Ata - a drawing tablet! Can I play too?

2:37 am

Atalante

sure!!! its *such* fun! it makes like *so* much easier trying to draw digitally!

2:38 am

Atalante

aha! I have babble on one side of my screen and photoshop on the other!

2:42 am

sprite

Just by never givng up, amanda, LOL

2:49 am

amandacath

100 all by myself! Is that anywhere near maybe halfway?

2:50 am

Atalante

very nearly halfway!

2:50 am

FMitch

Yes, good going amanda - 211 today.

2:51 am

Cat9x

I don't know how you do it sprite :) I have 88 left, you are good! :)

2:51 am

amandacath

Well, not bad if I do say so myself. Are there any z's I need to set my monkeys to?

2:52 am

Atalante

lol 46 words and half an arm drawn. I can see babble is going to take me all day today!

2:52 am

FMitch

Snap Cat I've 88 left too :)

No z words amanda.

2:52 am

Cat9x

No Z's amanda :)

2:52 am

amandacath

Oh hurray for that - the monkeys can sleep a bit longer...

2:52 am

Cat9x

:) I am sure you will finish before I do Ata, I've been at it a couple hours :)

2:54 am

Cat9x

hmmm, won't let me REtee, grrr

2:55 am

Atalante

I doubt I will - but I can try! :)

2:56 am

Haz1558

Good morning all. What's the concensus of opinion on the grid?

2:56 am

jean1953

goode morning haz

2:56 am

jean1953

oops meant to put good

2:56 am

Cat9x

A tad sticky, but not too bad, for me anyway, hi Haz :)

2:57 am

Angelsong

fun, Haz!

2:57 am

amandacath

Hi Haz! I got the first 100 all by my little ole' lonesome - dunno about the other half though

2:57 am

jillibus

I only have 75 words and eyes are slamming shut so bye bye

2:57 am

Atalante

awww no Dr Hannibal

2:57 am

Angelsong

Ata, yes there is.

2:57 am

jean1953

bye jillibus

2:57 am

Haz1558

Right - here I go. Happy birthday Atalante (I've just scrolled down the chat log)

2:58 am

JMann

hey haz - how's it going?

2:58 am

Atalante

ty Haz!

2:58 am

FMitch

Morning Haz
Lots of words today but so far so good.

2:58 am

amandacath

not exactly Dr. Hannibal, but the thing he stands at?

2:58 am

Angelsong

Ata, my mistake. no Dr Hannibal.

2:59 am

Atalante

Hobbit is very happy today - everyone that sent me presents put pressies for the pup in as well - so suddenly she is surrounded by rawhide!

2:59 am

Atalante

ooooooo good point amanda!

2:59 am

Haz1558

What nice friends you have!

2:59 am

Atalante

everyone loves Hobbit lol - she gets more presents than me usually!

3:02 am

Atalante

she's the sort of dog where people who don't like dogs end up saying "well I don't like dogs, but she's lovely ..." I suspect Spangle might be the same!

3:02 am

mattygroves

Happy birthday Atlante!

3:02 am

Atalante

ty matty! *hands round what's left of the chocolate cake after sprite dived into it* ;)

3:03 am

Haz1558

Yes, she does have a winning way with her.

3:03 am

Atalante

think its a spaniel thing. big brown eyes ...

3:04 am

Haz1558

And the way they sit up close to you!

3:04 am

FMitch

... how can one resist!!

3:05 am

Atalante

and the way they are just soppy as anything and love everyone!

3:06 am

amandacath

Why isn't a person who is eclectic and eclect? Is there even a noun form of it?

3:07 am

Haz1558

eclecticism is the noun.

3:07 am

Atalante

refresh for spaniel cuteness!

3:09 am

Haz1558

I used to think Spangle had a long tongue, but I think she's been beaten!

3:09 am

amandacath

So it is, Haz - so an eclectic is eclectic and suffers from (or enjoys, depending on how you look at it) eclecticism... eclectically?

3:09 am

Preethi

Happy Birthday Atlante

3:11 am

Haz1558

I presume so, amandacath. The dictionary also gives the noun as 'eclectic person'. It's a great word, but sadly not in the grid.

3:12 am

amandacath

Oh, bother dictionaries! I hereby declare "eclect" to be a word!

3:13 am

FMitch

Amazed to see that Enable is allowing both US & Brit sp of the word meanding "in the middle of".

3:14 am

amandacath

Thanks mitch - had overlooked that one (or those two, rather)

3:14 am

Haz1558

Double points - we're not complaining!

3:15 am

FMitch

LOL

3:15 am

jean1953

off for now bbl have a good day everyone:)

3:15 am

Haz1558

Bye jean, have a good day.

3:16 am

Cat9x

bye Jean

3:19 am

Dianne

Hi All :)

3:19 am

Haz1558

Good morning/evening Dianne

3:19 am

amandacath

Hi Dianne

3:20 am

FMitch

Afternoon Dianne.

3:20 am

JMann

hello Dianne

3:21 am

Dianne

It's a hot, muggy late afternoon here. Good to be in with the aircon going.

3:21 am

Preethi

Hi Dianne

3:21 am

Cat9x

Hi Dianne

3:21 am

Dianne

Haz - have you been working on those stories?

3:22 am

Haz1558

I'm afraid I haven't - thanks for reminding me!

3:22 am

Dianne

Hi Preethi & Cat

3:24 am

FMitch

another good combo - The french for a particular style of hat or something you put over your plants to protect them + pl.

3:25 am

Haz1558

Those type of hats always remind me of the TV series 'The House of Elliot' - the clothes were gorgeous.

3:25 am

FMitch

I am still working my way through the myriad of c's - how can there be so many!

3:26 am

Dianne

Did anyone get all the en words yet? I am having a devil of a time with those.

3:26 am

amandacath

How 'bout a "dirty old man" who "gags" while "drawing"?

3:27 am

FMitch

I remember that series Haz, it was very evocative of the time.

I am missing 1 Dianne.

3:28 am

Haz1558

FMitch You probably have the co4/5 meaning young horse and cl4/5 meaning stupid person. Our local paper once misprinted a football team The Carniny Co**s as the Carniny Cl**s. Didn't have quite the same ring.

3:29 am

FMitch

I do, that must have caused a few red faces, funny!

3:30 am

FMitch

Dianne - do you know which ones you are missing?

3:30 am

Dianne

FMitch - en7's - I have the "back your candidate" one and the main courses one but I can't see the other two. Got any clues?

3:32 am

Cat9x

there are 2 en's related to each other, en plus ca4/5

3:33 am

FMitch

1st en6 - make pas tense for 7/36

3:33 am

amandacath

found the other en7 - put something in an envelope

3:33 am

FMitch

Cat, have you got the en6/27 by any chance?

3:34 am

Haz1558

en6/27 is to put someone into slavery

3:34 am

Cat9x

not yet, have en6/21 and en6/18

3:34 am

FMitch

Ooh thanks Haz

3:34 am

Dianne

en6/27 - enslave in a real only fashion way.

3:35 am

Haz1558

You're welcome!

3:38 am

Dianne

Thanks for the help with the en's. I have all the C words if anyone needs some help.

3:40 am

Haz1558

Just discovered that Wayne's fiancee Coleen is not acceptable in the grid. Good enough for Vogue, but not for here.

3:41 am

FMitch

Just shows that babble has a little more class then LOL

3:42 am

Haz1558

I wonder if the footballers' wives and girlfriends are buying more cases to bring back all their new clothes?

3:44 am

amandacath

isn't "coleen" an irish girl, like lass is a scottish one? or is that with double-L?

3:44 am

FMitch

or as the press are calling them now - wags. The way they are spending probably easier to book a container and do a bulk shipment.
Oh my acid tongue this morning - apologies.

3:45 am

Haz1558

The Irish colleen is spelt with two l's. Miss McLaughlin's parents have a variation of their own.

3:47 am

amandacath

Germany - fashion capital of the world.... what on earth are they buying here, dirndls? Lederhosen?

3:47 am

Haz1558

The way the team are playing they probably realise they're not going to be in Germany for long, so they're making the most of the shopping opportunities!

3:49 am

FMitch

Oh you've jinxed the match now Haz!

3:50 am

amandacath

Looks like I'm stuck - not seeing anything more. Anybody have the 9?

3:50 am

Haz1558

Don't tell anybody or I'll have the wrath of England upon me!

3:51 am

FMitch

Time for a break - am not seeing any words and must get out and back before all the Royal Ascot race traffic decends.

3:52 am

Haz1558

You're not attending yourself?

3:54 am

FMitch

No but have been many times in the past, great fun for people watching. Must say the new stands are stunning and it has been interesting watching the site rebuild.

3:54 am

Haz1558

Is the weather going to be kind? It's kind of grey here.

3:55 am

FMitch

It was hazy 1st thing but the sun is out and they are forecasting a good day, fingers crossed it holds for the week.

3:56 am

FMitch

Dont know hown many punters they are expecting but the new stands hold 80,000 I think

3:56 am

Haz1558

I hope so - it always looks so good when the sun shines. Anyway, have a good day. I'm taking a break as well and maybe see you later on.

3:56 am

FMitch

Byeeee!!

3:58 am

Cat9x

Bye FM :)

4:03 am

Haz1558

in8/55 and in9/72 - build off in5/16

4:05 am

carrie5752

good clue Haz--did you see the an8 that has a similar ending and means towards the front?

4:06 am

Haz1558

Thanks - got it now!

4:07 am

Haz1558

I'm off now and will be back later to finish. Have a good day everyone.

4:08 am

anyone have a clue for the EC 6/24?

7:11 am

peanut327

i've only found 5

7:11 am

PapaGLP

i've never been so frustrated over a 4 letter word

7:11 am

Krista

four letter words come easily to some of us ;)

7:12 am

FMitch

LOL Krista - but most of those are unpublishable.

7:12 am

PapaGLP

ec6/24 - e & part of the face + a vowel

7:12 am

PapaGLP

that's about the best i can think up for it lol

7:13 am

PapaGLP

or e & ch4/6 & a vowel

7:13 am

Krista

oh, I don't know - I've been surprised at some of them Babble allowed! There was a really naughty one the other day, starting with t!

7:13 am

mattygroves

Ha - yeah , and that's the one my 15 year old daughter found

7:13 am

FMitch

good one Papa - and the def is the pl for a type of sea urchin, or a part of a doric column.

Yes Krista I was surprised by that one too.

7:14 am

chiley

I'm new....what do the tile stats mean?

7:14 am

Anniebrook

that word was yesterday and it surprised me very much

7:14 am

Dachef

ah, the Enable dictionary again. You can have the c-word, but not the w word, whch often pops up. (no pun intended)

7:15 am

JMann

thanks Papa - got it - I tried the other two vowels around there and nothing worked!

7:15 am

FMitch

LOL Dachef

7:16 am

Krista

LOL! That figures, doesn't it (about your daughter). Glad I'm not the only one...I always try the "bad" ones and was shocked that one was actually counted.

7:16 am

Krista

Pfft! Good pun, intended or not.

7:16 am

JMann

chiley - the tile stats are how many words start with those letters in those positions - so for example, the E in the top left corner has no words that start there, same with the one in the right corner - but the N next to it has 7 words that start there

7:17 am

shutterbug

Chiley, they tell you how many words start with each letter. Like if it says: T 4/16 then it means that there are 16 words starting with that letter and you have 4 of them

7:17 am

shutterbug

Chiley, just to l,et you know unless you become a pro user the tile stats dissapear after 14 days.

7:19 am

Preethi

clue for ca and ch 7/36?

7:20 am

PapaGLP

ch7/36 - singular of type of serial or a statement of greeting/leaving

7:20 am

Dachef

ca7 - when approaching Babble, always adopt a ca* ** attitude. Build from that!

7:21 am

JMann

CA 7/36 is the plural of the CA 6/24 above it = means honesty (or the writers of musicals, but spelled differently - CA**** and Ebb)

7:21 am

mattygroves

Also the last song on Tull's Broadsword and the Beast album

7:21 am

Anniebrook

7:22 am

JMann

PapaGLP

7:29 am

FMitch

7:29 am

PapaGLP

the measure of land area is also in the puzzle

7:29 am

PapaGLP

as a4/5

7:30 am

Krista

7:31 am

mattygroves

Thanks for that - most of those I SHOULD have found if I weren't such a moron at times, but some (like the ne) I'd only have found by monkey typing.

7:31 am

Krista

the land one has me stumped...

7:31 am

JMann

mattygroves

Sue, can you clue the en 7/36?

7:39 am

JMann

matty - its the past tense of EN 6/21

7:39 am

PapaGLP

en7/36 - past tense of en6/21 which means to put inside of something

7:39 am

mattygroves

I have one 6/21, which I don't know the meaning of...

7:40 am

PapaGLP

there are three en6/21s

7:40 am

PapaGLP

this is the past tense of the first one

7:40 am

JMann

EN 6/21 - ends with what you put all of your clothes in when going on a trip - a suit****

7:40 am

mattygroves

Ah. I only have one.

7:40 am

JMann

then take that ending and make it past tense

7:41 am

mattygroves

Now I have two (and the associated 7)

7:41 am

JMann

that's all the EN 6/21's

7:42 am

JMann

did anyone get the ET 6/18?

7:42 am

mattygroves

Isn't there three, didn't you say? I have the one you just clued (to put something inside something), I have the one I don't know the meaning of...what's the other?

dont know that novel, papa.....sorry

7:49 am

PapaGLP

hmm, okk, en6/21 - add an s to en5/12

7:49 am

PapaGLP

i don't know if it's a plural or not

7:50 am

JMann

then there is an EN 5/12 and it's plural EN 6/21 = try thinking of the finishing line of a race is the *** of it + to make a mistake is to *** (minus the last double letter)

7:50 am

Vicuna

en6 - people who finish

7:50 am

PapaGLP

yeah, i guess that would be a better clue lol . . .

7:51 am

mattygroves

OK, I feel stupid!

7:51 am

mattygroves

I know the novel!

7:51 am

Anniebrook

got it, thanks, Jmann

7:51 am

JMann

then, there is the EN 6/21 = this is the *** + what you put on your finger minus the last letter

7:51 am

JMann

those should be the three EN 6/21's

7:51 am

JMann

yw annie

7:52 am

mattygroves

That's all of them - thanks!

7:52 am

Anniebrook

have that one also, thanks to you

7:53 am

JMann

then, to further confuse everyone, there is a EN 6/27 = EN + a Russian slave in Tsarist times (or another spelling of what the Beach Boys sang about - ****ing in the ocean) and then an EN 6/18 = what you eat for dinner at a restaurant and then it's plural

7:56 am

Anniebrook

i have 10 en's. that should be all of them, i hope

7:57 am

JMann

sorry annie, but there are 13

7:57 am

8:33 am

FMitch

Afternoon Haz

chiley - have a look at Anglesongs link under Friends of Babble - tells you everything you need to know

8:33 am

Haz1558

en6/27 means a word of six letters which yields 27 points. A good starting point is to read Angelsong's resource page (under Friends of Babble at the bottom of the page) And welcome!

8:33 am

chiley

thanks

8:34 am

Haz1558

Good afternoon FMItch - I'm getting a few more words before going to get those injections! I was watching Ascot - it looks wonderful.

8:35 am

FMitch

ooer more injections! YEs it is quite something. When I went out this morning it wasn't too bad but I took a wrong turn and ended up taking 1/2 hr to do 2 miles but it's great to see the pagent of it all.

8:36 am

FMitch

They make a lot of the roads one way in the morning and reverse them in the evening so next time I can get out easliy is going to be tomorrow morning :)

8:37 am

Haz1558

I'm not that interested in the racing, to be honest, but the clothes, the racecourse buildings and Clare Baldings voice keep me watching.

8:37 am

Ornith

morning all. if "antler" is a word, why isn't "antle"? :P

8:37 am

Haz1558

And I forgot to put an apostrophe in Balding's.....

8:38 am

FMitch

Same here, even when I used to go to Ladies Day it was for the experience and the people watching.

9:16 am

FMitch

pabtrek - just means you are a true babble adict.

9:17 am

stidmama

she COULD tell you that pabtrek, but that would mean admitting she is also...

9:17 am

pabtrek

i was afraid of that FMitch

9:20 am

stidmama

BTW -- I don't think you Union Jack folks were on yesterday when I made a total JackA** of myself... I didn't realize that movieman and Punster's flags were the English flag... I got all confused. then I eddacated myself about the flags of Great Britain and finally know which is which!

9:20 am

cat2

lol jacs

9:20 am

Charm

hello all. anyone clued the 8s or 9 recently?

9:21 am

cat2

argh! the an8 is driving me nutz!

9:21 am

FMitch

I did see that bit in the log stidmama - we all live and learn.

9:21 am

stidmama

an 8 is opposite of "outside" word used for buildings...

9:22 am

Ornith

cat2: same ending as the in8; means front

9:22 am

Jacula

Stid - so you now recognise the union flag, the flag of St. George, the flag of St. Andrew, the Welsh dragon, and the flag of St. Patrick. Good!

9:23 am

stidmama

Yep. AT least I hope I do! AND I know that the Union Jack is NOT symmetrical... because of some heraldry rule about predecence.

9:23 am

stidmama

or did I mean preCedence?

9:23 am

Ornith

wow, that's better than me. I know St. George, but that's it.

9:23 am

FMitch

Impressed - you have been doing yr homework.

9:24 am

cat2

okay... more coffee before working on those clues...tx stidmama and ornith

9:24 am

stidmama

not good that I am already transposing letters this early in the morning! LOL

9:25 am

Angelsong

ok, everyone....opinion time: I've brought the Babble Birthdays Calendar "onboard" the resource pages site via a javascript. Go see what you think, and tell me if you like it enough for me to keep it and add the icon calendar in the same manner. There is still a link to the original calendar, also. Which do you prefer?

9:25 am

FMitch

All chat and no searching still leaves me with 29 words to find, *dives back into the grid* :)

9:25 am

stidmama

So I have a question FMitch/Jacula... do people fly the country flags as well as the Union Jack? In the U.S. many people fly their state flags as well as the U.S. flag.

9:26 am

stidmama

just a sec Angelsong! brb

9:26 am

Jacula

Stidmama - The Union Flag is called the Union Jack only when flown on board a ship.

9:26 am

Ornith

alright, caught up with the chatlog now. time to look at something besides those Es

9:26 am

Dynadan

perhaps you should go eat a bowl of honey nut c 7/36

9:26 am

Jacula

Stid - Yes, there are many St. George's flags being flown at present.

9:27 am

Ornith

stidmama, I definately saw the St. George flag all over London when I was there. But that was about this time of year.

9:27 am

KatieMcG

fier

9:27 am

ylleria

You see a lot of the St Andrew's cross in Scotland - rarely the Union flag ;)

9:27 am

peanut327

yo

9:27 am

KatieMcG

Opps - sorry got caught monkey typing :-)

9:27 am

stidmama

right. sorry -- I tend to use Navy terms (flags are at half mast for me, even on land...)

9:28 am

72 Temple Owl

dynadan: LOL! that is a wrod but gonads isn't ?

9:28 am

KatieMcG

Can't move for the English flag here at the moment :-) There is a joke going around about telling how bad a driver the person is by the number of flags on the car.

9:29 am

stidmama

Angelsong -- I like the one that comes up in your pages instead of popping up a new window. I think it's "neat" and orderly. And there is little enough of that in my life! :-)

9:29 am

Ornith

temple owl, I think they intend the ch7 as the british greeting

9:29 am

stidmama

movieman said it was in honor of the world cup because England is competing.

9:29 am

Ornith

and I dunno if it takes gonads, it just doesn't take "nads".

9:30 am

Jacula

Stid - Here's another titbit you might want to know... Wales, rightly or wrongly, is represented by the English flag on the Union Flag. You may have noticed the dragon is not on there. This is because the Union Flag was made in 1606 and Wales was officially joined with England by Henry VIII's Act of Union in 1536.

9:30 am

Jacula

I knew my history/geography lessons would come in handy one day! LOL.

9:30 am

FMitch

Ornith - do you know that word is a slang word for male bits?

9:31 am

Ornith

oh yes, fmitch

9:31 am

FMitch

: ) just checking.

9:31 am

Ornith

that sports team from the art school I mentioned? their mascot WAS, uh, male bits. it was named Scrotie.

9:32 am

stidmama

Thanks Jacula, that is what I had read -- too bad, because of them all, that is the one that is most interesting to look at. IMHO...

9:32 am

FMitch

What a laugh!!!!

well, their team was going to be a joke anyway.... :P

9:36 am

9:36 am

hi peanut

9:51 am

Sam

babble sometimes rejects words that are in the dictionary it allegedly uses, and accepts others that are not. go figger.

9:52 am

Atalante

if you can have re6/24, why can't you have re8 - someone who re6/24s? silly enable

9:53 am

Sam

atalante - guess that one got deleted! ;->

9:53 am

Ornith

what's this re6/24, atalante? I'm still missing that one

9:53 am

Ornith

oh, thanks sam

9:54 am

Atalante

hmmmm how to clue - colour + perform on stage

9:54 am

72 Temple Owl

ata: mean to edit

9:55 am

Ornith

sam's comment gave it to me :)

9:55 am

peanut327

hi mickie

9:55 am

Atalante

ah ty TO - I only know how its used in my favourite sci-fi / fantasy series ....!

9:56 am

72 Temple Owl

is there another meaning?

9:56 am

Ornith

atalante, that's how it's usually used. edited... with a big black gummint-conspiracy marker.

9:57 am

Atalante

Julian May uses it as a type of healing power - but that's not real world ;)

9:57 am

Angelsong

re6/30?

9:57 am

Ornith

y'know, that sounds oddly familiar, atalante, what book is that in?

9:58 am

Atalante

the Galactic Milieu trilogy - Jack the Bodiless, Diamon Mask adn Magnificat. And Surveillance / Metaconcert / Intervention depending on what country you're in!

9:58 am

1j2u3d4y

Hi everyone. I am new here and was just wondering - how much time do each of you spend finding the words?

9:59 am

Ornith

I think I must have read those at some point, atalante, that sounds REALLY familiar.

9:59 am

Atalante

wonderful wonderful wonderful wonderful books!

9:59 am

Ornith

judy, a couple hours - how many depends on how many words. and that's using all the hints I can get my hands on

10:00 am

Charm

Welcome, Judy. A short grid might take an hour. A longer grid might take 2 and sometimes 3. But I think people are on and off often for chatting.

10:00 am

FMitch

I work from home and miss the chat of an office so the log is the equivalent for me.

10:00 am

Atalante

but people often just pop in and out occasionally during the day and work that way

10:00 am

Angelsong

Judy, it gets faster with practice!

10:01 am

Ping

morning, everyone

10:01 am

Ping

how's this grid seem so far?

10:02 am

Ornith

long, ping

10:02 am

72 Temple Owl

hi ping: it's a fun challenge

10:02 am

Ping

hmmmmm, they should save the long ones for the weekends!

10:02 am

Ping

hi temple owl

10:02 am

72 Temple Owl

angel: did u get your clue?

10:03 am

Angelsong

nott yet, TO :)

10:04 am

Ping

angel, i'm hoping that i will ge t faster - i'm not sure that it's happening yet though!

10:04 am

72 Temple Owl

i don't have it yet... : (

10:04 am

1j2u3d4y

thanks for the answers. I come and go throughout the day. I am a stay at home grandmother sometimes grandchild sitter. So I come and go. Haven't finished one puzzle yet - come back and oops ... it's the next puzzle. hehehe

10:05 am

mickie12

same here judy lol

10:05 am

Ornith

it does get faster - helps when you learn to use the points to find them, and also just some of the weird words that come up a lot

10:05 am

FMitch

Judy - the one main reason we all keep coming back is that the grid is fun/challenging and the virtual babble community is great.

10:06 am

Ping

hi judy, it was at least a month before i ever finished one - the trick is to use the "cheat" sheets on the pages linked below!

10:06 am

Angelsong

judy, there's lots of hekp on the resource pages

10:06 am

1j2u3d4y

I would like to get to know some of you. I find it fun - sometimes I come back and can't believe I see a word I didn't see previously

10:07 am

Ornith

hmm. if beseech is a word, why isn't seech? stupid English!

10:07 am

mickie12

lol Ornith

10:07 am

1j2u3d4y

I taught English in junior high for about 5 years and I agree, Ornith, it is a strange language.

10:08 am

denbrig

does anyone know how many words are on the puzzle today?

10:08 am

72 Temple Owl

there are so many phantoms today, they are distracting!

10:08 am

Ping

211 words total

10:08 am

Ornith

I think I once heard it said that English doesn't borrow words from other languages, it sneaks up on them in back alleys, beats them up, and goes through their pockets

10:08 am

Munner

Hi Judy, and welcome from another stay at home grandmother retired teacher.

10:08 am

FMitch

211 denbrig

10:08 am

denbrig

thanks for the info

10:08 am

Atalante

Thanks, Atalante.

10:10 am

1j2u3d4y

Ornith, have you heard of or read the books, Eats, Shoots & Leaves?

10:10 am

Ping

i'm a former teacher!

10:10 am

Angelsong

I'm really stuck on that re6/30

10:10 am

Munner

Stephie, hope you're enjoying a break

10:10 am

Atalante

angel, did you see that clue?

10:10 am

denbrig

oh ok thanks

10:10 am

Ornith

heard of, judy, not read

10:10 am

72 Temple Owl

judy: someone just mention ed that in here the other day!

10:10 am

StephieC

Yes, but my own children are driving me crazy!!

10:10 am

1j2u3d4y

Just goest to show how punctuation can totally change the meaning of what you are saying.

10:11 am

1j2u3d4y

I had a student one time that loved to put an e on the end of every word in his spelling test.

10:11 am

72 Temple Owl

is that you in the picture, judy?

10:11 am

1j2u3d4y

Yes, that's me

10:11 am

Ornith

a few hundred years too late for that kid, judy

10:12 am

1j2u3d4y

you have that right, Ornith.

10:12 am

1j2u3d4y

I told him that if he was given a bag of e's at the beginning of the school year he would have used them all up by now. He would have spelled more words correctly if he just dropped off the e.

10:13 am

Atalante

got it now, angel?

10:13 am

72 Temple Owl

i love the apostrphes on plurals trend...

10:14 am

Ornith

oh, you guys will probably appreciate this: http://houseoffame.blogspot.com/ - Geoffrey Chaucer Hath a Blog

10:14 am

1j2u3d4y

how about there, their and they're

10:15 am

JA

Hi, munner. How are you feeling? I was on chat recently when you were speaking about your treatment.

10:15 am

72 Temple Owl

you do realize that grammar is a lost art...or more precisely, it is changing by popular usage

10:16 am

1j2u3d4y

I still can't stand the "If I were..." that everyone is using.

10:16 am

Ornith

and temple owl, this one is for you: http://www.angryflower.com/bobsqu.gif

10:16 am

FMitch

That is great Ornith esp as I spotted one of the fave babblet words on the home page "Ywis"!

10:17 am

72 Temple Owl

ty ornith...judy i use that - ack!

10:17 am

Atalante

this is a brilliant page for random ywis-y babble words: http://phrontistery.info/archaic.html

10:18 am

72 Temple Owl

ata: i must bookmark that one

10:18 am

1j2u3d4y

no you don! do you really? It makes my skin crawl like fingernails on the old chalkboard

10:18 am

72 Temple Owl

ok - what's the correct way?

10:19 am

1j2u3d4y

I is singular, so it should I am or was

10:19 am

1j2u3d4y

were goes with plural... we were, you were, they were

10:19 am

Aloyisius

But, Judy.. what about the subjunctive case? Hello all..

10:19 am

72 Temple Owl

if i was you sounds so wrong....

10:20 am

Munner

I taught ESOL and can't remember how many times I had to explain to my students that English was the craziest language of all.

10:20 am

Ornith

Judy, I always heard "were" as correct there, for subjunctive. and in any case, google tells me "if I were" is now more common, slightly.

10:20 am

72 Temple Owl

hi alo! hi munner - hope you are feeling well today!

10:21 am

Ornith

(which is actually considered valid linguistic evidence for stuff, believe it or not)

10:21 am

1j2u3d4y

true, it is now the more common usage -

10:21 am

Munner

Hi, Temple Owl. Today is the beginning of my week off drugs so I should have some good days. How are you?

10:22 am

10:22 am

Aloyisius

howdy, TO... can only pop in for a bit of babbling, another "hit and run" day. (-: Yes, I say "if I were" ..

10:22 am

Ornith

The thing that drives me nuts is people using "r" and "u" and "b4" and that sort of thing.

10:22 am

72 Temple Owl

Today's my first day here. I've read Angelsong's page but still have questions. Is there a list of clues somewhere? What's the best place to look for good info?

10:53 am

StephieC

I use Lickety's Babble Clues at the bottom of the page (under the puzzle).

10:53 am

LeslieAnn

chiley, if you click the licketyâ€™s babble clues link on the bottom of the page you will get a first and second letter breakdown of all the words. Very helpful.

10:53 am

Angelsong

first se6?

10:54 am

chiley

for instance I don't know what it means when someone asks about ce x/x.....where x are numbers

10:54 am

LeslieAnn

ac 4/5 - word starts with ac, is four letters and worth five points

10:54 am

72 Temple Owl

angel i can't tell you....

10:55 am

chiley

oh...thanks...that helps

10:55 am

FMitch

cr7/40 means the 1st 2 letters are cr, there are 7 letters in total and the points value adds up to 40. That give you an idea of what you are looking for.

10:55 am

StephieC

ex. se6/21 - se are the first two letters of the word; 6 is how many letters are in the word; and 21 is the point value.

10:55 am

StephieC

sorry angel, I don't have that one yet!

10:55 am

mickie12

LeslieAnn

11:43 am

LeslieAnn

although reese, and i am talking for stidmama b/c she's not here, i wouldn't put your full name on your profile, just reese's or your first name. safer that way

11:44 am

Dynadan

sigh i have more words that are 6 letters or more than i have 4 letter words .... is there a trick to 4 letter words?

11:44 am

helenkeller

oh yes reese, leslie is right!!! must be cautious, better safe, than sorry :)

Krista

11:45 am

Dynadan

now i am just making stuff up

11:45 am

Haz1558

I sometimes use a 'square' of four letters and see how many words I can get from it. It works better on some grids than others.

11:45 am

caitlyn

Sometimes that works Dynadin

11:45 am

Dynadan

i still think nads should count :P

11:46 am

LeslieAnn

12:19 pm

mymuseisme

ce4/5 rhymes with P***r, Paul and Mary

12:19 pm

te 6 - think of a word for "not wordy, short answer, etc", then change the "s" in that word, and make it plural.

12:19 pm

mymuseisme

middle of circle spelled differently, reverse last 2 letters

Vicuna

12:20 pm

Bash

12:20 pm

FMitch

... or they just click on the ? next to the word on their list

12:20 pm

StephieC

dy, hit the question mark next to the word and it will give you the definition

12:20 pm

dcseain

d'oh, ty Bash, i didn't look in that direction when i did the singular, and so missed the plural

12:20 pm

Dynadan

ce 6/21 that i thought was hard .... what mexcians may can a penny

12:21 pm

Dynadan

12:21 pm

12:24 pm

StephieC

the ce6's that i have are ended, perfumed with in__, the vessel that burns the in___, and middle of circle spelled two different ways. What is the other one???

12:25 pm

Vicuna

Spanish pennies?

12:25 pm

Dynadan

what mexicans might call a penny plural

12:25 pm

goofball

could I get some help with the ec words please?

12:25 pm

mymuseisme

penny + vowel + curved cons

12:25 pm

Dynadan

or a body or work by an author since i now know how to push the question mark button

12:26 pm

StephieC

thanks! I finally got it!

12:26 pm

mymuseisme

ec6/24 = e+beard grows here+ vowel

12:26 pm

Haz1558

ec4/6 - looks reminiscent of a resounding word, but with a different vowel ending, pluralise for the ec5/14

12:26 pm

mymuseisme

if you know Spanish, it's the ending for milk minus l

12:28 pm

StephieC

are there 13 ce words?

12:28 pm

goofball

thanks. I didn't have the beard grows here word, either!

12:28 pm

ShadeEagle

I'm sure I'm missing the obvious, but help with the ac 7/32?

12:28 pm

Haz1558

There are 13 ce words.

12:29 pm

mymuseisme

according to Lickety there is Steph

12:29 pm

Dynadan

its not easy .... think nail polish remover

12:29 pm

StephieC

think fingernail polish remover but change the n to the curvy letter! (ac7)

12:29 pm

Vicuna

ac7/32 - means sour, starts like chemical for nail poslish remover, ends like the end of the flower symbolizing love

12:29 pm

Haz1558

ac7/32 - high scoring card followed by anagram of foot digits.

12:29 pm

StephieC

12:34 pm

Dynadan

every single flipping impossible undefinable one!!!

12:35 pm

LeslieAnn

i was looking for that one, dyna, thanks

12:35 pm

LeslieAnn

katican, there are 211 possible words today

12:35 pm

Dynadan

i don't think it should count as a word anyway i just typed it in for fun

12:36 pm

katican

thank you, can you explain the tile and word stats?

12:36 pm

mymuseisme

words stats show you how many 4, 5, 6, etc. words there are

12:36 pm

LeslieAnn

sure, the second number is the # of words that start with that letter, the first number is how many you have. when you're done with a letter it will turn gray

12:36 pm

Dynadan

word stats list how many words of that length there are .... i.e. 3 8 letter words

12:36 pm

LeslieAnn

same for the word stats

12:37 pm

katican

ooohh.......cool thankx

12:37 pm

katican

I have 31 words.....long way to go

12:37 pm

LeslieAnn

the way we clue, with ac 4/5 and such, means a word starts with ac, is 4 letters and worth five points

12:38 pm

Dynadan

when someone types ac4/5 .... it means word starting with ac 4 letters long that will add up to 5 points ..... so ac4/5 another word for zits

12:38 pm

Dynadan

jinx

12:38 pm

LeslieAnn

beat you to it, dyna :)

12:38 pm

katican

ic, i like this game

12:39 pm

Dynadan

i gave a free word with mine HAH!!

12:39 pm

LeslieAnn

If you click the licketyâ€™s babble clues link on the bottom of the page you will get a first and second letter breakdown of all the words.

12:39 pm

Dynadan

get to around 100 words and it is more addicting and less fun lol

12:39 pm

LeslieAnn

that's true, the bonus might negate the timing under the buzzer

12:40 pm

magzel

1:30 pm

Vicuna

Ping, all I can say is, anyone who doesn't know enough to stop after the first set of twins must be utterly mad! (Actually, mine are very good kids, but I certainly don't need any more!)

1:31 pm

Vicuna

Oh, bye, Ping!

My family lives in Illinois, and says that the winters are never as cold as they once were...if they keep cutting down the rainforest at the rate they are, it's only going to get worse.....Sorry for the preaching, but it's true....

5:06 pm

Uneaixoise

not preaching -- just stating facts

5:07 pm

libarebel

I know, jaia, very true-- such greed...

5:07 pm

libarebel

ooohhhh, dear! :(

5:07 pm

jaianniah

5:08 pm

libarebel

I'm so sorry, jaia, :(

5:08 pm

jaianniah

I'd like to visit that place someday, just to see if the men there misbehave

The cross letter changes it. Not used to seeing it spelt in Ye Olde Englishe.

Yeah, I have my flag. Yes, my pro debut is currently happening. :)

8:22 pm

featherbee

"Le***worth State Park is home to many sites of interest to students of colonial times." this is what i was thinking of! it's in western NY

8:22 pm

brandyjack

and in fact, it won't take it with the 2 bit ending..... It only wants the 6 letter variant. Wish this thing would be consistent....

8:22 pm

8:23 pm

8:23 pm

nrkii

scarlet, kids aged 13 - 19

8:24 pm

featherbee

hee, at least i wasn't totally making it up!

8:24 pm

FranMag

scarlet, one is a plural

8:24 pm

featherbee

back to the grid

8:24 pm

brandyjack

perhaps the plural of the te4/4 bird?

8:24 pm

mab

consistent? geez, brandyjack

8:24 pm

Scarlet

arge...got those...

8:24 pm

FranMag

another te5/10 is the te4/4 bird + a vowel

8:24 pm

Scarlet

my lickety list is messing with me

8:24 pm

Scarlet

i'm a dork

8:24 pm

nrkii

there are 4 te 5/10

8:25 pm

brandyjack

oooh, a straight line....

8:25 pm

FranMag

the other te5/10 is te + first 3 letters of a very popular TV show about being stranded on an island

8:25 pm

nrkii

brandyjack, not sure what you meant about it not taking the 2-bit plural?

8:25 pm

Scarlet

well, i suppose i'll end semi admirably with 42 left to get...perhaps another time. thanks for all your help...it's good to know that people are word geeks like me

8:25 pm

nrkii

were you not able to make le 7 as plural of le 5?

8:26 pm

FranMag

you did great scarlet! see you again.

8:27 pm

Minski

OK. How about the TE6/21 that doesn't add a consonant to the end of the TE5?

8:27 pm

brandyjack

Franmag's clue was 'scarlet, le7 is what a le5/14 (dirty old man) does', but the 2 bit ending to make the le5 an le7 doesn't work, ven though that word is the olde english variant of the 6 letter without the cross letter.

8:27 pm

FranMag

minski, both of them add a consonant

8:28 pm

nrkii

minski, the te 6/21s both are te 6 plus consonant, but go in different directions

8:28 pm

nrkii

bj, is the two bit ending ES?

8:28 pm

Minski

got it. thanks.

8:28 pm

featherbee

second ch 5/14?

8:29 pm

nrkii

feather, type of pants

8:29 pm

Dorens

bottom ofyour face + a vowel

8:29 pm

brandyjack

never thought of that one, but that one does work. I was working on the R ending.

8:29 pm

nrkii

or same with diff vowel on end

8:29 pm

featherbee

got it, good thing, i don't get the pants clue!

8:29 pm

FranMag

feather, sonny and ch** + a consonant

8:29 pm

8:31 pm

FranMag

whew, glad you got my clue feather, i've been giving the wrong ones all day!!

8:31 pm

brandyjack

i mostly ignored frans, because I caught the podium one and kept tryig to work it in that direction and trying it without the cross..... singleminded cussedness....

8:31 pm

If the whole world could be a pc-free zone, I would be very happy.

10:00 pm

Cathyar

tks...i'm lookin

10:01 pm

Bambam

in reality, politically correct is another word for a falsehood..... or a perversion of the truth... it has become inappropriate to be honest, which is a shame

10:01 pm

featherbee

*doesn't get tee shirt joke*

10:01 pm

FranMag

cat9, do you have the person who et4/6s?

10:02 pm

featherbee

10:04 pm

Jacula

I guess you've all heard the story about the woman who was due to have a 'down there' op? She dyed her pubic hair bright green. When she awoke after the op., the surgeon had written on her abdomen, 'SORRY! Had to mow the lawn!'

10:04 pm

Cat9x

bye Fran, thanks again :)

10:05 pm

Bambam

Jacula

Just checked out your profile, Ping. Are you a stepmom, too?

10:12 pm

Ping

well, my partner is the birth mom but i've been around all along - i'm the other mother, hence the blog title

10:13 pm

Jacula

Oh dear! It's 4.11am here and my truck-driving other half is due to wake up v. soon. He'll be so annoyed with me for being down here on the computer and with a glass of wine in my hand. Any way I can to knock me out so the night sweats don't wake me every 30 mins. I hope I can get him to see that is all it is.

10:13 pm

libarebel

mt. damn et4/4-- pesky!

10:13 pm

Jacula

Ah, Ping. I should have realised that. I remember someone telling me that (in real life) some years ago.

10:14 pm

abe79

last word...he 6/21- the first one

10:14 pm

libarebel

I can so relate, jacula!

10:14 pm

Jacula

There were 2 'other mothers' in that scenario though. Most of the kids, but not all, were screwed up.

10:14 pm

FranMag

abe, slang for rear end

10:14 pm

Ping

jac, our fair nation is behind yours in this (and a number of other) ways!

10:15 pm

FranMag

10:17 pm

10:17 pm

FranMag

211 akaann

10:17 pm

Bambam

the other unconditional love is the love kids have for their parents (before they grow up!!!!)....

10:18 pm

helenkeller

black cohosh worked for me for about a year & now i'm taking estroven - which took a couple of weeks to kick in but now i am only waking up 2 or 3 times/night

10:18 pm

abe79

goodnight all

10:18 pm

akaann

thank you franmag

10:18 pm

Ping

amen, bambam!

10:18 pm

Jacula

Ican't believe how late people are still coming into this grid as new.

10:18 pm

akaann

i have been here before

10:18 pm

akaann

love the thing

10:19 pm

Jacula

Helen - I tried a later night + some alcohol last night and only woke 3 times, but I did get 3 hours uninterrupted sleep.

10:19 pm

10:19 pm

FranMag

10:19 pm

Jacula

I want my 6-8 hours strraight through though.:-(

10:20 pm

Bambam

i could sleep hanging upside down, outdoors, in a blizzard if i'm tired enough...... get up for work at 5 daily and just never seem to get enough sleep

10:20 pm

FranMag

jac, sounds like you have a new baby!

10:20 pm

libarebel

that et** word should be a given!

10:20 pm

helenkeller

uh jacula, how far back in the chat log?

10:21 pm

libarebel

jacula?

10:21 pm

helenkeller

you know what happens to me - i turn off the light , think for a few minutes, start to relax and then as soon as i'm really relaxed & ALMOST asleep -BAM

10:22 pm

FranMag

bambam, sounds like sleep deprivation.

10:22 pm

nrkii

hey, did anyone put their real yearbook pic in icons today?

10:22 pm

FranMag

vicuna did nrk.

10:22 pm

Jacula

FranMag - feels almost the same way, except that my newcomer is hot flushes/flashes in the day and night sweats later.

10:22 pm

libarebel

I did!

10:22 pm

helenkeller

une did too

10:22 pm

libarebel

not! :-D

10:22 pm

FranMag

lol lib!!

10:23 pm

helenkeller

the sweats is not what wakes me up - it's the freezing afterwards!

10:23 pm

helenkeller

jacula - how far back in the log?

10:23 pm

libarebel

oh, the sweats....

10:23 pm

Jacula

I've tried alcohol, water, smoking, not smoking, sitting by an open window/door. The one thing I think MAY work is doing the breathing exercises you are taught to do during labour. Lowering the blood pressure, even if it is naturally low, as mine is, might be the thing.

10:23 pm

libarebel

lol, fran!

10:23 pm

Jacula

I'l report back.

10:24 pm

libarebel

um, carol! :D

I find that beer helps me, jacula...

I see wassup hiding in the back somewhere

10:26 pm

Jacula

Helen - re the advice I gave back in the log about opening the whole chatlog - maybe 2 hours ago? However, all I said was that it opens in a new window now and won'taffect the grid part.

10:26 pm

10:26 pm

Oh, but if I right click on Archives, then I can open it up in a new window

10:28 pm

10:30 pm

froelica

So when you wanna booze it up again?

10:30 pm

libarebel

tofu is a great source of phyto-estrogen, can be palatable if cooked right...

10:30 pm

Jacula

He did offer me a drug for hot flushes that lowers the blood pressure but I've declined that for now since I have naturally low blood pressure anyway. I don't want to be dizzy and vision-impaired but 'cool'. I think I'll try the breathing exercises when the heat comes on.

10:31 pm

helenkeller

jacula - the hot flashes started about a month before my 47th birthday -LOL i was at work & kept saying 'is it hot or is it me?' convinced it wasn't me, i kept chaning the thermostat!!! LOL now we know better

10:31 pm

wassup

10:31 pm

Jacula

Libarebel - I'll check out my tofu recipes. Any hints and tips?

10:31 pm

ya know the flashes do go away, but then you're just old so enjoy!

10:31 pm

libarebel

10:32 pm

yeah my doctor didn't think it was menopause since i was 'so young', but now we're both pretty sure this is it!

10:32 pm

wassup

oh, we're going to waldport. haley has a tournament. we just decided to go and em and jon are going too.

10:32 pm

mama mac

for hot flashes.. try progesterone cream that you can get at a pharmacy... really helps as does soy like edamame (soy beans you can buy frozen and heat and eat) or soy nuts

10:32 pm

hpyhrted

i started at about 42 or so with the flashes

10:33 pm

helenkeller

jacula - what did you read about black cohosh that turned you off - my doc recommended it & it's pretty much standard

10:33 pm

froelica

phooey.

10:33 pm

Jacula

hyphrted - My Mum is 72 and she still gets the sweats. Her friend is 84 and she still gets them. These facts depress me!

10:33 pm

i started a couple years ago and im 47

10:33 pm

hpy - now that IS young!!

10:33 pm

it might suck. who knows? i just hope it doesn't rain

10:34 pm

libarebel

my chinese friend cooks it so deliciously! corn oil at exactly the righ temp-- after marinating! yum!

10:34 pm

mama mac

also for the night hot flashes,,, freeze a wet hand towel in a baggie and keep next to your bed so when you awaken you can put that behind your neck and it really takes the edge off...

10:34 pm

hpyhrted

i'm 66 and can't remember when i last had one, had a few after mastectomy but not for too long

10:34 pm

Cat9x

I sarted getting hot flasnes, and the start of meno in my late 30's. Still get hot flashes, much more now though, I am now 52.

10:34 pm

helenkeller

jac - yeah that's scary, my mom has been gone for almost 20 years, so i have no idea about when it happened to her or how long :(

10:35 pm

Jacula

I keep a damp flannel by my bedside to either put on brow or between breasts when the hots strike.

10:35 pm

helenkeller

mama mac - YES, that's what i do & that really helps!

10:35 pm

wassup

10:36 pm

Jacula

Re the black cohosh downsides - some kind of argument about whether it does or does not cause breast cancer, whether it does or does not exacerbate tumours if you have them, and the fact that it can cause liver disfunctions.

10:36 pm

hpyhrted

interesting eh bam

10:36 pm

helenkeller

i am telling my body that 3 years of this will be the right amount of time - sometimes these suggestions work!

Too chat or not to chat that is the question right now -- like Bambam I am expanding my education -- but on the other hand I feel a bit left out as I have no context for commisseration -- so I will have to settle for {{*Hugs for all*}}

Wolfie - is she teething again?

11:20 pm

Minveryork

Hello GreyWoulf!How are you doing this fine evening?

11:20 pm

GreyWoulf

She is on public assistance and the clinic opens at 6 am --- and to make matters worse -- they only accept 21 welfare cases each day

11:20 pm

kierlex

i think that was Twisted Sister, not The Who

11:21 pm

renfield

ok - so we're not gonna take it!

11:21 pm

GreyWoulf

Jac -- this is momma we are talking about, not my daugher -- and she may have an abscess or it may be an impacted wisdom tooth

11:21 pm

LeslieAnn

oh dear that seems like a not so good situation, woulf

11:22 pm

kierlex

we;re not gonna take it... anymore....

11:22 pm

Infant paracetamol, plus cold compress. Failing that, try a very hot lemon and ginger tabag applied to the site of the pain.

11:22 pm

Jacula

Wolfie - same as I said before but up the para dose.

11:22 pm

kierlex

yeah if it is an abscess don't use heat (speaking from previous experience), use ice and ibuprofen

11:23 pm

Jacula

Any tincture of giner will hep ease th e pain.

11:23 pm

Minveryork

Hey Darci, that is a word a minute!!! Go Darci Go!!!

11:23 pm

GreyWoulf

she actually had to go to the ER tonight for an injection of anesthesia -- a Vicodin plus a Percoset did nothing!!

11:24 pm

Uh, oh, the cat is going to walk on my keyboard....just warning you....

11:24 pm

kierlex

wow... how old is she?

11:25 pm

GreyWoulf

Darci -- I have had nights where I had more words to find than minutes and made it -- with this team on your side, anything is possible

11:25 pm

Jacula

Wolfie - it sounds to me, unless she has a bad tooth, that her wisdom teeth are busy impacting themselves. That was the thing that sent my Mum's temp sky high and didn't allow her out of hospotal just after she'd had me.

11:25 pm

GreyWoulf

kier -- she is 40 in Sep

11:25 pm

Darci

heh. all the words i have left are longer ones, which is my weak point.

11:25 pm

Except for last night. at 12:30 I had one more word.

le8 - plural; of the thing the the Bible sits on in Church.

11:26 pm

sorry. my bad. I had a super bad abcess and i kept hoping it would go away and they had a heck of atime working on it. they can't numb it well if it is too infected

11:26 pm

GreyWoulf

sorry for the confusion Kier -- it does trip me up at times since the names are so close

11:26 pm

Darci

thanks leslieann! that gave me two for the price of one!

11:26 pm

jaianniah

plural of the one before- Darci, go thru your list and check for plurals- they are evrywhere in this puzzle....

11:27 pm

Minveryork

People were cluing me nonstop for 30 minutes & the idiot that I am, never got the word. I was told after the flip & I felt so stupid afterword. It was the most exhausting and stressful thirty minutes of my life!!

11:27 pm

Min -- I had a period of a couple of weeks where I went down to the wire for finishing the grid -- it got so that if I finished with more than 3 minutes on the clock I felt all upset cos I didn't know how to fill my time :D

11:29 pm

kierlex

and then if i say anything (like I DON'T CARE ABOUT ALL THIS SPORTS!!!!) he gets indignant and says 'i am just trying to make conversation....'

11:29 pm

LeslieAnn

speaking of which, anyone want to clue a en 6/21 (after the person who says this product is great)

11:30 pm

kierlex

how do you guys finish these things? how do you do it w/out clues? i just don't get it...

11:30 pm

jaianniah

kielex, my hubby lives in Dallas, and I am alone most of the time....try to be glad he's there at all.....(I know, it's hard when they are sports freaks)

11:30 pm

GreyWoulf

kier -- I have only ever finished 2 grids with out clues and both were under 50 words

11:31 pm

Jacula

Try being me and telling my England supporter that 'it's only a game'. Have I dared to do that since the World Cup started? Have I heck!

11:31 pm

LeslieAnn

jai how come you live apart?

11:31 pm

Minveryork

I was just exaggerating! I just get so into this thing sometimes! It's pretty sad But tonight I am relaxed becuase I know I will not finish so that is not my goal!

11:32 pm

Darci

ok, i'm going to start asking for clues. i have 33 left, but i'll give it the ol' college try

11:32 pm

Jacula

Re the doing it(the grid) without clues thing: Over time, the words make themselves apparent. It's jusat like the crossword you get used to.

11:32 pm

Darci

ac7/32?

11:32 pm

LeslieAnn

highest card in the deck + high fruc**** corn syrup?

11:33 pm

Darci

11:33 pm

Darci

oops. that should say ch5/20

11:34 pm

Minveryork

I have only completed 2 times. Of course both times have been on a weekend! I don't know how you could finish the grid if you have a family and a full-time job!

11:34 pm

Jacula

ac7/32 - the first word I got in this grid, as I'd just been removing nail polish before entering. The ac7 word means 'tasting like vinegar'.

11:34 pm

LeslieAnn

hail to the ch 5/20, darci

11:34 pm

jaianniah

He lost his job a few years ago- took him 2 years to find another- it required a move to dallas and we had a kid still in H.S> who would have slit herr throat if I pullled her out of her school....so we stayed and he went....and now she has gaduated, and he still hasn't finished the work on the house so we can sell it (Katrina did quite a number on it, besides) So I am stuck....sagas of Babbleland....As the Grid Turns....

11:35 pm

Darci

11:35 pm

GreyWoulf
