kierlex

my sympathies on the laundry knutmeg, i just spent 2 evenings in our basement doing laundry and tyring on all sorts of old clothes and cleaning out my closet. it is nice and tidy now and the only clohthes in there now FIT ME =)

12:17 am

knutmeg

Mum and I believe that if unthink is a word, then goozier should be a word, too.

12:17 am

stidmama

knutmeg -- is there additional help on that ma 6?

12:17 am

knutmeg

cuz my baby's puke is goozier than her poop sometimes

12:17 am

kierlex

we had baskets of laundry that had been ignored for weeks =(

12:17 am

libarebel

& melon :)

12:17 am

stidmama

good for you, kierlex! I am in the middle of doing the same!

12:18 am

knutmeg

take a yummy jewish dumpling and add a T

12:18 am

jillibus

how about magazine?

12:18 am

kierlex

despite the depressing part of trying on clothes that i wore before my pregnancies... it is nice to have it all cleaned out. i got rid of 4 garbage bags of stuff, giving it to friends and then goodwill

12:18 am

jillibus

Knut, you're a nut!

12:19 am

jillibus

matza

12:19 am

knutmeg

I suppose I should mention my name is well earned

12:19 am

jillibus

oh no, not again!

12:19 am

stidmama

That's the one I got Jill, but can't seem to make it into a 6!

12:19 am

kierlex

i still think tazer should be a word

12:20 am

jillibus

me 2, kier

12:20 am

knutmeg

I think the french should be able to die, too.

12:20 am

kierlex

what knut?

12:20 am

stidmama

but they can, knutmeg! Just not as long as they're used to!

12:21 am

mirandapan

Stid--try a diff. vowel to make the ma into a 6

12:21 am

knutmeg

but that e makes it french, our americanized spelling sucks! *snickering*

12:22 am

stidmama

thanks miranda! that worked!

12:22 am

mirandapan

welcome

12:22 am

mirandapan

rein

12:22 am

mirandapan

Oh, drat! Sorry

12:22 am

jillibus

mote not in the dictionary? Some Bible reading needed, methinkd

12:22 am

stidmama

LOL knutmeg! I have read so many british books and websites, that I can no longer spell proper "american" words!

12:23 am

kierlex

mote is in there it seems

12:23 am

stidmama

try it again Jill -- it worked for me...

12:24 am

knutmeg

well, I think the enable dictionary should be un-americanized, cuz, we really can't spell well. Everything is prettier in other countries, spelling-wise that is.

12:24 am

saphyre

need some sleep - night everyone

12:24 am

jillibus

12:28 am

stidmama

I must get to halfway before I go to the list.... must keep

monkeytyping...

12:29 am

stidmama

kierlex, sending you pleasant thoughts. Did you know that just relaxing your face muscles and smiling _on purpose_ can elevate your mood?

12:30 am

stidmama

okay, now I KNOW fannie is a wurd!

12:31 am

jillibus

rude one in England, stid

12:31 am

12:34 am

Bambam

12:34 am

tndaisy1960

12:34 am

stidmama

oh daisy -- I hope you mean ASPRIN!

12:35 am

jillibus

hi lynntan - what time zone are you in?

12:35 am

tndaisy1960

lol not hardly....those &()*&^^^ cigarettes...

12:35 am

stidmama

I don't get the am 7 clue. a little dense this time of night...

12:35 am

Bambam

small italian love

12:35 am

stidmama

THAT, btw, is a gorgeous icon!

12:36 am

stidmama

thanks bambam, I think that gets it...

12:36 am

stidmama

yep! that was it. thanks again

12:37 am

stidmama

can anyone help me with the di 6 that Jai found earlier?

12:38 am

stidmama

another phantom word: "orzo"

12:38 am

jillibus

my efforts at small italian love aren't working

12:38 am

kierlex

mine aren't either (small italian love)

12:39 am

kierlex

when the moon hits your eye ....

12:39 am

stidmama

Jill -- think little tiny skinny spaghetti -- the ending sounds like "teeny" take off the T

12:39 am

Bambam

yeah Stid, i think annie is a word too.... we use that for the kitty or the ante in poker (in Oz)... as in "ok annie in, let's deal"

12:39 am

mirandapan

Stid--I can't find the di6 either

12:39 am

jillibus

ta, stid, I was ending with the first vowel

12:39 am

Bambam

ooh i found it.... di + smallest particle

12:40 am

stidmama

I think I just did... di 6/24: tiny sea organisms that leave their skeletal remains in huge amounts like the cliffs of Dover.

12:40 am

stidmama

Bambam's clue is easier to follow though!

12:40 am

tndaisy1960

Stid I turned on IM if you feel up to it

12:40 am

kierlex

ahh, thanks stid

12:41 am

kierlex

ok, i am going to bed in 20 minutes...

12:41 am

stidmama

I have 48 words. I need another three to make it to halfway... **takes deep breath and submerges**

12:41 am

Bambam

do 6,36 is a .... well .... one of them! (a good one)

12:41 am

jillibus

Oh yeah, sure, I believe you, kier <snigger>

12:42 am

Bambam

me too stid (exactly)... then at half way i go to the list!

12:42 am

stidmama

12:42 am

stidmama

12:42 am

12:43 am

stidmama

51 words! to the LIST!

12:43 am

Bambam

why isn't dogate a word? as in the dogate my homework!

12:44 am

stidmama

ROFL Bambam -- our teen tried to use excuses like that for his not so good grades this last term... I know for a fact the dogs did not actually EAT the homework, they merely chewed it a bit

12:45 am

Bambam

even if that happens, no teacher believes it lol

12:45 am

tndaisy1960

I guess I need to reboot...yahoo is being an ar 4/4

12:45 am

jillibus

12:52 am

kierlex

nice that the do 6/36 isn't in the dictionry

12:54 am

Bambam

jeez not often you see a 4,13 word!

12:54 am

melonheadjujube

i am stumped by am

12:55 am

stidmama

*hurries off to find the unusual word*

12:55 am

knutmeg

okay, so the french can't die a french spelt death, but the ga6/27 DOES count? Silly, silly dictionary

12:55 am

tndaisy1960

12:55 am

Bambam

12:58 am

tndaisy1960

Stid, I'm back

12:59 am

melonheadjujube

12:59 am

jillibus

1:00 am

Bambam

jilibus, think spaghettini but italian love instead of the pasta

1:00 am

kierlex

hmm, the definition for the fu4/13 is interesting

1:01 am

stidmama

I can't get the ga 6/27 either...

1:01 am

kierlex

1:04 am

jillibus

1:05 am

MayneGuy

Death comes into it but 4/5

1:05 am

libarebel

MayneGuy

1:07 am

jillibus

1:08 am

libarebel

ga6/27 means spoiled in french...

1:08 am

libarebel

or, a sweet, too!

1:08 am

mirandapan

I have a ga 6/27 that's a cake in french--it has a typical french ending--like the ending of water in french

1:09 am

libarebel

that's it, mir!

1:09 am

stidmama

thanks for the ga!

1:10 am

mirandapan

yes--as in a ga**** chocolat

1:10 am

jillibus

thanks, mir - I had tried the "spoiled" but it was short a letter and was disallowed. Your clue takes the cake.

1:11 am

mirandapan

1:11 am

mirandapan

1:13 am

jillibus

1:15 am

libarebel

but, you know, jilli :)

1:15 am

jillibus

1:16 am

libarebel

how do you get the circumflex, jilli?

1:16 am

jillibus

see below, lib

1:16 am

libarebel

oh, gotta figure that out on my mac!

1:17 am

jillibus

Don't think it works on a mac

1:17 am

libarebel

don't have alt, but will try option

1:17 am

libarebel

right, jilli-- just tried it...

1:17 am

jillibus

In Windows, it's all in Character Map - which is found in Accessories

1:17 am

libarebel

will work on it...

1:19 am

libarebel

hmmmm, brainstrain.. nite jilli, et al :) zzzzz...

1:19 am

artdr

1:20 am

JGalloway

1:20 am

stidmama

i prefer to pretend that one can't make the accent marks... I always get them wrong anyway. :-(

1:20 am

melonheadjujube

option is Macspeak for alt. my emac has alt insmaller letters on the option key.

if you use accents a lot on Windows, you want to download a programme called AllChars - it lets you enter accents much more easily than using the character map. and hi!

jillibus

1:43 am

stidmama

stidmama

thanks so much for all the help! I will try to drop in tomorrow, but will be busy with my great-aunt and the kids most of it.

1:48 am

MayneGuy

What about za* 5/20? Way to go Stidmama!

1:48 am

jillibus

Stid, I think I know the 1st 4 letters of the ancient Greek marketplace, but can't find the rest - am I on the right track?

1:48 am

MayneGuy

Under an hour - I worship at your lexicon!

1:48 am

Atalante

yes you are jill

1:49 am

stidmama

yes, it ends like the jewish soup dumplings.

1:49 am

stidmama

za 5/20: an african nation.

Ty Stid - got the za* 5/20 - but Proper Noun?

1:51 am

jillibus

nite, stid - have a good family day tomorrow

1:52 am

jillibus

Yeah, lynn - proper nouns happen a lot in spite of the rules!

1:55 am

jillibus

Guess I'm not good at jewish soup dumplings - can't make that ag6/24 work! Any other ideas?

1:56 am

MayneGuy

Think Greek market and end with "go bad"

1:57 am

jillibus

thx a mill, lynn. And now to bed, said sleepyhead...

1:58 am

MayneGuy

Yes must have shower - so hot, so sticky!!

FMitch

Morning all
I see the hairy nosed fresh water dolphin is back in the grid.

2:16 am

Cat9x

good morning FM :)

2:17 am

FMitch

Hi Cat :)

2:18 am

Cat9x

Spanish for moi is in the grid also, won't let me use it! Go figure, some Spanish yes, some no.

2:19 am

Atalante

morning FMitch :)

2:19 am

FMitch

Such are the delights of the world of Enable.

2:20 am

Cat9x

Yep :)

2:20 am

FMitch

Morning Atalante
You can tell it's time for Wimbledon as it's raining!

2:20 am

Fishbulb

and the spanish word for cat is there too :)

2:21 am

Atalante

yup! Hobbit managed about 2 paces outside of the door before running back inside this morning! I think she's allergic to rain

2:21 am

Cat9x

I know, thats what I was refering to, but it won't let me use it, it's a travesty!!! :)

2:21 am

Atalante

Add another letter to the word for cat for another animal though ....

2:22 am

Cat9x

Awww, Mine is allergic to rain too, sh turns into a huge baby, have to force her to go out to potty in the rain.

2:22 am

Cat9x

Thanks Ata :)

2:22 am

Cat9x

She now has her own umbrella ( I hold it of course) :)

2:22 am

Atalante

its ridiculous isn't it! I'm sure the rain doesn't actually get down to their skin anyway, they've got such thick coats!

2:23 am

Cat9x

When the automatic sprinklers come up early morning, she won't go out either lol

2:23 am

FMitch

LOL

2:23 am

Cat9x

sure is!!! They think thye might melt I guess :)

2:23 am

Atalante

silly creatures!

2:24 am

Haz1558

Good morning all.

2:24 am

Atalante

morning Haz!

2:24 am

Cat9x

very silly! Hi Haz!

2:24 am

FMitch

Morning Haz,
Is Spangle a pro or anti rain dog?

2:25 am

Haz1558

Spangle loves the rain. I'm less favourable.

2:26 am

Haz1558

She's really keen on snow as well.

2:26 am

Cat9x

Tiki loves the water, loves to go in the lake, or the water at the beach, but turns into Miss Priss when it rains, go figure!

2:26 am

Atalante

Hobbit just hates water. She'll occasionally dab a toe into the sea if there are no waves, but other than that, water is apparently torture ...

2:26 am

Cat9x

I don't blame you Haz, I'm not fond of being out in the rain either.

2:27 am

Cat9x

awww, poor Hobbit :(

2:27 am

Haz1558

I don't mind so much being out in the rain, it's the smell (of the dog) afterwards that isn't pleasant. I don't think I smell too bad.

2:28 am

FMitch

LOL!!!

2:28 am

Atalante

at least we don't have labradors ...

2:28 am

Cat9x

I think with Tiki is she can control water, like the beach. Whether she goes in or not is her perogative. Rain, she can't control it, it just lands on her, she is at it's mercy :)

2:30 am

Cat9x

Hold on, I think I still have some pic's of Tiki on my computer that my Son put on here awhile back, if so, I will put one as my icon so you can see her, be right back :)

2:30 am

Atalante

oooooh cool!

2:34 am

mattygroves

Morning - what's the grid like today? I haven't quite done chick FLICK...

2:34 am

FMitch

I am finding the grid a little more "challenging" than yesterdays, have finally made it to 58 words.

2:37 am

Haz1558

Good morning matty - Not long started the grid, but yesterday's was so much fun, despite first appearances.

2:41 am

Haz1558

Back shortly. Chauffeur duties await.

2:41 am

FMitch

See you later

2:43 am

Calqhoon

Can anyone clue the ai 4/4 for me please?

2:45 am

FMitch

Didn't even know there was one ... goes hunting for the ai4

2:46 am

Atalante

2:47 am

FMitch

Yes, found it
That which we breathe + a letter

2:47 am

Cat9x

Ok Ata, did it work? Takes hours for me to see my new icon, even after refreshing. This is Tiki at my Son's friends place, playing with their new puppy :)

2:48 am

FMitch

OMG Cat that is a great pic!!!

2:48 am

Calqhoon

2:48 am

Atalante

OH MY!!! It worked certainly! how gorgeous!

2:49 am

FMitch

2:49 am

Cat9x

Thank you! The puppy looked exactly like Tiki, same markings etc, but is a chiuahua :)

2:49 am

Atalante

2:49 am

Cat9x

2:54 am

Atalante

2:54 am

Cat9x

Nind of dark, but thats him, he is my baby :) A huge furball!

2:55 am

Atalante

Beautiful beautiful cat, Cat!

2:57 am

Atalante

Haz1558

Back again - pretty cat, Cat!

3:01 am

FMitch

Lots more babblet words today compared with yesterdays grid.

3:01 am

Cat9x

sorry, my neighbor just came to bring back the vaccum she borrowed.

3:01 am

Cat9x

Thanks Haz!

3:01 am

Cat9x

You rescued a sparrow Ata! Is he ok?

3:03 am

Cat9x

I don't care for todays grid, lots of odd words. Yesterdays was wonderful!

3:03 am

FMitch

Haz, have you found the hairy nosed dolphin yet?

3:04 am

Atalante

don't know .... will phone up the vet in a few minutes and ask. the poor babe had a hurt wing and was in big time shock. Anyway, we rushed him down to the vets and they were going to keep an eye on him for a while to either put him out of his pain or get him better again. He managed a few hours after we took him in, I know, so that was a good sign

3:04 am

Haz1558

Not yet, I'm ashamed to say.

3:05 am

Cat9x

Found the jewish dumpling, I think that's what the ma5/22 is?

3:05 am

Haz1558

Remind me of the starting letters?

3:05 am

FMitch

I stumbled over it and always think it's a flower - i

3:05 am

Cat9x

Oh I hope he will be ok, the poor little thing :(

3:06 am

Haz1558

You're right about the jewish dumpling.

3:07 am

FMitch

Thanks Cat, didn't have that one.

3:07 am

Atalante

I'll let you know when I find out ...

3:08 am

Cat9x

you're welcome and thanks Haz.

3:08 am

FMitch

Dumplings, French cake and soyabean extracts, not a very appealing meno?

3:08 am

Cat9x

Please do Ata!

3:08 am

Cat9x

LOL FM, not at all!

3:08 am

Calqhoon

the cake sounds lovely :)

3:09 am

Haz1558

If it's French cake, it will be. Patisserie windows in France are works of art.

3:10 am

FMitch

True, true, but not sure it appeals for breakfast .. then again ..

3:11 am

Calqhoon

3:20 am

amandacath

3:21 am

Haz1558

Yes, I was debating whether monkey coffee would catch on.

3:21 am

Cat9x

I thought you meant your Monkey was brewing the coffee for you! :)

3:23 am

3:39 am

amandacath

good one Haz! *looks for less amusing one...*

3:39 am

Haz1558

I haven't got the other one yet - for the sake of my clue I hope it's humourless.

3:41 am

amandacath

We'll both hope so - with death down there in the corner, there might be a chance...

3:41 am

miametro

oh, found it. great clue haz!

3:42 am

Cat9x

it's an am7/32, never heard of the word before, and can fins nothing on it's meaning, all I found on google pertains to Italian, nothing more.

3:42 am

Cat9x

Sounds like love Italian style, with a pasta ending lol

3:42 am

Haz1558

Thanks Cat - will try to get it from that.

3:43 am

amandacath

4:03 am

aleksia

Atalante

4:04 am

Cat9x

HI Aleksia

4:04 am

Atalante

and an f4/13

4:04 am

Haz1558

Thanks Atalante.

4:06 am

amandacath

ma5 - handicapped baby fly?

4:07 am

Atalante

handicapped baby fly? that has to be the best clue ever!

4:09 am

Calqhoon

ag6/24 - past decay

4:09 am

Cat9x

LOL amanda, great clue!

4:09 am

amandacath

*blushes* - for grids like today's, making up clues is more fun than trying to find the words

4:11 am

amandacath

to6 - mechanical bull?

4:11 am

lynxxx

Hi all - lovin' the clues - very funny and easy to work out

4:12 am

aleksia

hey lynxxx

4:13 am

Cat9x

I used to wrap wires around to6's early in my "career" in Silicon Valley back in the 70's.

4:13 am

amandacath

hi lynx

4:13 am

sreyanshi

hi

4:13 am

Cat9x

hi lynxxx

4:13 am

Cat9x

4:14 am

ExWren

I've just been reading the chat, and the grid doesn't look too healthy this morning

4:14 am

Cat9x

Not a fun grid Wren

4:14 am

jean1953

only managed 46 going to have to come back later lol have a good day everybody:)

4:14 am

amandacath

oy - now I'm going to have to look up the to6...

4:15 am

Cat9x

If I remember correctly, they were circular and made of graphite?

4:15 am

Cat9x

bye jean!

4:16 am

amandacath

I can't quite get my brain around the definition - sounds like a disc to me, but evidently it's not...

4:18 am

Cat9x

I remember them like little graphite donuts, diff sizes, would use a blueprint and have to wrap the wire, diff gauges etc, in so many wraps, so far apart, had to be tight. THey were sent to companies who wired them into their products.

4:19 am

Cat9x

I think they could also be used on wires to stop "noise" that emitted from wiring.

4:19 am

Cat9x

30+ years in Silicon Valley, thank God they weren't all on that job lol

4:20 am

amandacath

I think I'll stick with mechanical bull...

4:20 am

Cat9x

lol

4:22 am

Atalante

is the N a really obvoiuos word?

4:22 am

Cat9x

never realized that ro5/14, the man's name, was slang in Britain for intercouse? LOL Learn something new everyday!

4:22 am

Haz1558

Yes, think of World War 2

4:23 am

Cat9x

yes Ata, think German

4:23 am

Haz1558

Cat - I think it is an old fashioned term used among a particular social set.

4:23 am

amandacath

I didn't know that either, Cat - thought it was in the grid as radio-speak, as in "over and out"

4:24 am

Atalante

ooooh ty. something else that should be capitalised!

4:24 am

lynxxx

So we can have RO5.14 but not amore for AM5.12 - where has the love gone ?!

4:24 am

amandacath

They don't deserve capitalization, Ata

4:25 am

Cat9x

True lynxxx! I thought of it also as over and out amanda.

4:25 am

Cat9x

Thanks Haz:)

4:28 am

Haz1558

You're welcome, Cat.

4:29 am

Cat9x

hmmm, tr5/20, monkey found it, but in looking it up, all i found was this? a municipality located in the Belgian province of LiÃ¨ge. Why is this allowed, google shows it also capitalized?

4:31 am

Haz1558

I don't know - I remember it was in the grid before so presumably there is some other meaning for it somewhere.

4:31 am

amandacath

we had that a couple of weeks ago - if I remember correctly, it's an alt spelling for something - trousers, maybe? I had to google for quite a while to find it

4:31 am

Dachef

yeh, and you cant put an -er on the end for trousers in Scottish.

4:31 am

Haz1558

Good morning Dachef.

4:32 am

Cat9x

thanks amanda, hi dachef!

4:32 am

Dachef

remember the song? Donald where's yer tr5/20ers!

4:32 am

Haz1558

As sung by Andy Stewart - yes indeed!

4:33 am

Cat9x

No I missed that one Dachef! :)

4:34 am

Dachef

"let the wind grow high, let the wind grow low, throo the streets in my kilt I'll gooo, all da lassies say hallo, Donald where's yer tr5/20ers" Ah, memories.

4:34 am

Haz1558

'Let the wind blow high, let the wind blow low' and Dachef has the rest.

4:35 am

Dachef

ah yes, blow makes much more sense. Another misheard lyric!!!!!!!!

4:35 am

Cat9x

za5/20, is that not capitalized also?

4:36 am

amandacath

one would think so, Cat - apparently it's also the currency there

4:37 am

Cat9x

Grrr, can never get the rules straight lol

4:38 am

amandacath

missing one ze - got the letter and the number...?

4:38 am

Cat9x

ze + not out, but **?

4:38 am

Haz1558

There's a ze 4 - z plus German one

4:39 am

Atalante

ze + opposite of out

4:40 am

amandacath

urghh - I hate words like that... Thx

4:42 am

Haz1558

Well, ladies and Dachef - it is time for me to do something useful about the house. I have finished - I was struck by sheer genius and just saw all the words. Lickety's list and morewords helped a bit as well! I'll check in later on when the house is a bit cleaner.

6:00 am

sprite

And good afternoon to you all

6:01 am

Eva

good morning Sprite.

6:02 am

Jacula

Good afternoon Sprite, Eva & Merp. This is the kind of grid where you see a few obvious words and then think ??? But then, it's like a door opens and the words reveal themselves.

6:03 am

Eva

when does the revelation occur Jac(-: 38 left and nothing to do but monkey

6:03 am

Jacula

Mind you, by the time I'd copied down the grid I was singing 'Da Doo Ron Ron'. Must've been something to do with all to doos and roos.

6:04 am

Jacula

Eva - 23 left here and having to peep under tiles and round corners to find 'em now!

6:05 am

Jacula

... and if I type 'magoo' in once more, I'll scream!

6:08 am

Eva

if there are zoot suits shouldn't there be zoot?

6:08 am

Jacula

Eva - I agree. That was the first word I 'saw' and tried.

6:10 am

Jacula

Haven't got that zo5 myself yet. Just typed in 'zodit!' Well, it scores 22. :)

6:11 am

Eva

nope-have a za6/33 but no zo5

6:12 am

Jacula

Got it! It begins with the place where animals are kept and is followed by a short form of identity.

6:13 am

Eva

thanks! Was trying to convince it to accept zoofa-a rough sponge used to wash animals, but it wouldn't go for it

6:13 am

Jacula

One of its definitions is: An independent animallike organism produced asexually, as by budding or fission.

6:13 am

Jacula

Eva - Is zoofa a real word? :D

6:13 am

Eva

no

6:14 am

Jacula

It should be!

6:14 am

sprite

Not real, but lovely :)

6:14 am

hydra

I don't understand why it won't accept naze, which means a headland. It's in my dictionary. Grrrr!

6:14 am

Jacula

I had a vision of a giraffe or an elephant in a showercap being zoofad.

6:15 am

Jacula

hydra - put it down to the vagaries of the DisAble dictionary.

6:15 am

hydra

Do you get frustrated with it too, Jacula?

6:15 am

sprite

Sounds like the beginning of a joke ;)

6:15 am

Eva

still missing one z. Have:za6/33,ze4/9,ze4/9,ze4/9,zo5/22

6:16 am

sprite

Tell a webmaster 'goto' is not a word.

6:16 am

Jacula

Eva - za5/20 - A country... where Mohammed Ali had his rumble in the jungle.

6:16 am

Eva

finally got that n-by trying something which I was sure would be a proper noun. Go figure

6:17 am

GingerUK

hi everyone :-)

6:17 am

For some completely obscure reason I want niagara.

6:17 am

Eva

6:17 am

Eva

hi ginger!

6:17 am

Jacula

hydra - all the time! I wish it would learn that 'drey' is a squirrel's home.

6:17 am

Jacula

Hi Ginger.

6:18 am

Jacula

Sprite - did you have to mention Niagara? I've been putting off a 'comfort break' for some time now. That's finished me off! Back in a bit... *sound of feet racing up stairs.*

6:18 am

GingerUK

101 sounds easy enough... are we dealing with obscure ones here?

6:19 am

sprite

Hehehe... from my fingers in your mind, Jac! Enjoy the break :)

6:19 am

Eva

ginger-obscure for sure

6:19 am

I already have 19 words. None is obscure. I think the rest is.

6:20 am

GingerUK

6:21 am

6:21 am

Eva

well-my back is killing me so I think I'll get up andmove around for a while. see you all later.

6:22 am

sprite

I hardly slept tonight. Some moronic football fans here think that every game should be broadcasted over the whole street, with yells and curses, until 4 am. I am SO glad we are no longer in the running!

6:23 am

sprite

Aww Eva... good luck with that. Nasty thing, pain in the back.

6:24 am

sprite

Ah, is that what it means! Strange word!

6:41 am

FMitch

sprite - have you sudoku'd today? Is it a medium medium?

6:42 am

sprite

It is, FMitch. Pretty straightforward, you need to reason out 1 single number and then the rest follows.

FMitch

*sends the sun to Becca*

6:56 am

Becca Lorum

6:56 am

FMitch

Becca, I know what you mean, never suffered with hayfever until this year and it's awful.

6:57 am

Becca Lorum

6:57 am

sprite

That's funny, FMitch, same here. Never had hayfever and all of a sudden this year: bingo.

6:58 am

FMitch

Aparently it can hit you at any age and this has been a bumper year for pollen.

6:59 am

sprite

I did not like sneezing, but I simply hated the inflammation of the eyes.

6:59 am

Becca Lorum

if there's this much pollen this year, will we all be buried under plants next year?

6:59 am

sprite

I think we collected most of the pollen in our noses, between us 3 ;)

7:00 am

FMitch

LOL I sneezed so hard yesterday my chair (on wheels) moved backwards.

7:00 am

Becca Lorum

yeah, probably! As long as we don't grow stuff up our noses!

7:00 am

sprite

Hehe, must have been a sight, but it doesn't feel comfortable ;)

7:01 am

sprite

Okay, let's compare bellybuttons. I'd say mine is innier than yours. But babble doesn't think so.

7:01 am

FMitch

Ah but if you drop a letter you will find our dear friend the hairly nosed dolphin!

7:02 am

Becca, that makes sense I think that was the only way you could miss it :-)

7:17 am

Jacula

Beckham was sick? Eurgh, I'm glad I didn't see that. I was Babbling in another room and reporting on the yells and groans coming from the sitting room during the match... 'GO ON!', 'OHHHHHHHH!', YEEEEEEESSSSSSSSS!', 'Oh GOD! and the like. Didn't really need to watch it with Paul commentating.:)

7:18 am

bluephlox

ooh, world cup talk- go england!

Jacula - it wasn't the best time to be eating Pizza, you've never seen appetites go so quickly ;-)

7:19 am

Jacula

If I stand outside during an England match I can hear every other male in the district commentating, too.

7:19 am

GraceM

I need one more to finish...ag6 anyone?

7:20 am

FMitch

Calqhoon - sprite gave a grat clue not that long abo but I can't pinpoint it in the log.

7:20 am

Jacula

There's a collective male roar when there's a goal or a roar, dying down to a groan when there's a miss.

7:23 am

Aloyisius

Hi FranMag... I'm NOT done.. I've just begun!(I meant that I had tried the phantom word, not that I finished. (-:)

7:23 am

bluephlox

words that you think you see but aren't on the board

7:23 am

FMitch

words that you think are in the grid but are not, yet you keep typing them anyway.

7:23 am

GraceM

I swear there's only about 50 recognizable words in there today!

7:23 am

movieman

Phantom words are ones that at first seem to be in the grid, but after closer inspection, they're not....

7:24 am

Becca Lorum

thx bluephlox - i have lots of those!

7:24 am

sprite

phantom words: words that pretend to be in the grid, but sneekily disappear as soon as you enter them

7:24 am

Becca Lorum

And mm!

7:24 am

KatieMcG

...and you keep typing them 'just in case'

7:24 am

FranMag

7:26 am

GraceM

7:26 am

Jacula

MM - the un word is a variant on the spelling of a fast-movin sloth (fast.. sloth??). It's a normal Babblet.

7:26 am

sprite

It is, CJ, it's just not valid!

7:26 am

featherbee

7:31 am

Calqhoon

7:32 am

KatieMcG

Calqhoon

7:32 am

sprite

Jacula

Darn, it won't let me have Maori.

7:37 am

YoBaby

Sprite, isn't the god of love Eros?

7:37 am

Becca Lorum

I don't think I'll ever forgive the person that intro'd me to Babble. I'm addicted now!

7:37 am

sprite

YoBaby: yes, but he has another name too.

7:38 am

YoBaby

YoBaby

Got it, Sprite. Thx.

7:39 am

If I remember well, YoBaby, Eros is the greek name and you need the latin one here.

7:39 am

mattygroves

More like the Italian for love...

7:39 am

Becca Lorum

phantom - goitre

7:40 am

sprite

lol matty... Italian is THE Roman language par excellence. The love word comes from the latin god!

7:41 am

FranMag

jac, it won't take maori, but a white supremacist works!

7:41 am

YoBaby

What about zoot?

7:42 am

Munner

I have this crazy self-imposed rule that I have to find at least one word from each box before I give myself a break. Thus, desperately need a clue for the N?

7:42 am

Jacula

Got all my m's now but thanks FranMag.

7:42 am

FranMag

i've tried this word about 10 times...nine

7:42 am

Becca Lorum

yeah, yobaby, zoot suit

7:42 am

sprite

Munner: think World Wars and the most nasty people from that time.

7:42 am

Jacula

Munner - think of the baddies in WWII.

7:42 am

Munner

I thought that was a proper noun. Thanks Jac

7:42 am

sprite

Jac: GMTA ;)

kitsunei

7:48 am

sprite

This one wins the stupidhead word award for today: Tr5/20. Alt. spelling of close-fitting tartan trousers, worn esp. by certain Scottish regiments.

7:50 am

Jacula

7 left to go but my tum tells me it wants lunch, in fact, s becoming quite insistent... BBL

7:50 am

FranMag

looked for that one as soon as i saw the Z, it was my favorite word when it was in a grid a couple of weeks ago.

7:50 am

FranMag

later jac!

7:50 am

sprite

Only reason I found it was because it's been in other grids indeed, Fran :)

7:51 am

YoBaby

Alright. We know it has a t, r, and z. What's it rhyme with?

7:51 am

C Starling

phantom word is magazine today

7:52 am

FranMag

well, i've entered the same fa4/8 five times, i think it's time to sleep!

7:52 am

sprite

Actually, I think I have acquired a babble brain. I found the trousers before I found the beautiful big cat.

7:52 am

Aloyisius

tx, sprite: seems you should be able to put an "er" on the end of that stupid word, but, noooooo

7:52 am

FranMag

yobaby, rhymes with a game played on a table like hockey

7:52 am

lynxxx

Hi all - does anyone have the elusive TO6,21?

7:53 am

sprite

Aloyisius: or even -ier! But nooooo :(
YoBaby: it's tight trousers, but rhymes with the opposite of tight!

7:53 am

Calqhoon

Rhymes with clues :P

7:53 am

sprite

lynxxx: urface generated by a closed curve rotating about, but not intersecting or containing, an axis in its own plane.

Aloyisius

7:55 am

specificity

good morning, everyone =)

7:55 am

YoBaby

Got it. Thx!

7:55 am

Munner

7:55 am

Aloyisius

what, no volcano today? ah, but there is the familiar to4...

7:56 am

sprite

Aloyisius: to4, i4, u4, all babblets to make up for the missing vulcano ;)

7:56 am

Calqhoon

man, 'Troma' should so be in there :)

7:56 am

Aloyisius

how about "matador" for a phantom? I think I've had too much coffee..

7:56 am

abe79

i've come to expect the volcano. it gives me a confidence boost for grids like these

7:56 am

Hello Jacula - enjoying the grid?

8:24 am

indy, so true, but there is only 1 dictionary behind this grid (Enable) and it is so hit and miss.
LOL Jacs
Afternoon Haz, nice to see you.

8:24 am

8:27 am

indybehr

because that is also the name of their currency

9:22 am

Krista

oh, ok...I'll accept that :)

JA

9:30 am

Atalante

thank you!!! ok, there's a challenge, dachef! *runs to try and find it*

9:31 am

majmom

TYabe79 never would have got that

9:31 am

abe79

yw majmom and calq- i credit the monkeys for that one!

9:31 am

indybehr

i thought it had an "h" on the end of it

9:31 am

Atalante

you gave it away mentioning points, dachef!

9:32 am

Munner

I got it. Thanks.

9:32 am

Dorens

ok. i got it....not a dumpling. and I've not seen it with the consonant on the end, but I'm not all that religious

9:33 am

Krista

just got it, too..weird

9:33 am

indybehr

I only got 5/22 for that one tho

9:33 am

Becca Lorum

indy - add a consonant to the end

9:33 am

Krista

it's a variant spelling on that one

9:34 am

indybehr

got it

9:34 am

Dachef

If I ever get to use that word in conversation, I'll be amazed. "Could someone pass the ma6/36's please?" "oh no, I couldnt possibly eat another ma6/36" - no, it aint gonna happen.

9:34 am

Krista

like yesterday

9:34 am

Atalante

there are 2 ma5/22 associated with it

9:35 am

Krista

oops - like yesterday's "nerts" and a variant of the expression "nuts"

9:35 am

indybehr

I've heard that one

9:35 am

Dachef

ta 5/14 anyone?

9:35 am

Krista

**as** as variant...really?

9:35 am

indybehr

no - I've heard "nerts"

9:36 am

Dorens

well, Jewish people eat them instead of bread during passover--and make pancakes out of m**** meal, and dumplings in the chicken soup, made out of the ma*** meal

9:36 am

Dorens

not allowed leavened bread, only ma*** for eight days every spring

9:36 am

Krista

i knew what you meant, indy...I just can't type today!

9:37 am

shutterbug

9:38 am

Krista

Atalante..can't find the second 5/22...could you give me a subtle hint, please?

9:38 am

gramma

Hi every1. I'm back from the lake to do laundry. I met 2 people over the weekend who play Babble! How fun is that?

9:38 am

Krista

**flinching and wincing*** got it! Hit me!

9:43 am

Calqhoon

9:43 am

Munner

A day with Babble is much worse than a day without sunshine!

9:43 am

jakes-mum

could i have a hint for the second RO4/5 plz?

9:43 am

gramma

Munner, you'll need that icecream to keep up your strength.

9:43 am

Munner

gramma, you are definitely my kind of lady.

9:44 am

Krista

Me too, Gramma. It's a real guilty pleasure for me...Munner..so sorry for what you are going through. I have been there myself (Hodgkin's Disease). Chemo is brutal.

9:45 am

Becca Lorum

Oh, I htink I give up for now - got 35 to go, but must do real work or I'll get the sack. Bye everyone

9:45 am

shutterbug

9:46 am

Krista

bye becca - I'm off here for a while, now, too..Yes, it has been almost 18 years. I had a scare a few months ago, but it was a benign nodule. it's always in the back of my mind, as I'm sure you understand.

9:46 am

harpjane

zoot is a slang term

9:51 am

shutterbug

thats ok, I was just going to say "Great minds think alike"

9:51 am

what was it named after? was there a Mr Zoot or something so that it really should be Zoot suit?

9:51 am

rumplestiltskin

clue for the zo word please!!

9:52 am

Anniebrook

ata, it was a jazz word in the 1940's and they named a type of suit after it

9:52 am

ch1212

Atalante, the history of the Zoot Suit is that it came from Mexico in the 1940's -- it's associated with the rise of gangs out of Texas and Los Angeles, but that's an undeserved reputation.

9:52 am

gramma

Well, nertz to the babble powers that be!

9:52 am

Munner

9:47 Indy's clue

9:52 am

Atalante

Lara226

Mollusk

10:18 am

Krys10

jfarber, you here? wanted to congratulate you on making it to summer vacation!

10:19 am

Dorens

it seems i always find more words that ARen't there than are....at least it seems that way

10:19 am

ch1212

at 5 - think of the entryway into a building, often a large space with plants called the at**** -- now lose the last 2 letters and attach the first vowel

10:20 am

ch1212

be back later --

10:20 am

Anniebrook

10:21 am

Lara226

Calqhoon

10:22 am

abe79

10:23 am

JeeWhiz

10:23 am

Calqhoon

10:23 am

indybehr

10:24 am

jfarber

I am here...just trying to manage household at the same time. Hi, Krys!

10:25 am

JeeWhiz

to 5/10 or to 6/21 please?

10:25 am

FMitch

Don't forget that the tile values can help on the words sometimes

10:25 am

Calqhoon

hah, i cant believe it's taken me 'til right near the end to get the TI word. now it seems so obvious

10:25 am

indybehr

the feline one?

10:25 am

Calqhoon

yeah :)

10:25 am

Dorens

funny you should say that... i don't have the ti word, now I'm challenged

10:25 am

jfarber

Summer vacation rocks...but staying home with two kids and a new home that needs upkeep isn't really the lazy summer I used to have.

10:25 am

Krys10

how's summer been to you, JF?

10:25 am

Dorens

oh no, indy, you spoiled it for me (just kidding)

10:25 am

chiley

ma5/16 has me stumped. Any clues?

10:25 am

JeeWhiz

dorens...kitty cat

10:26 am

Krys10

sounds like you've traded it in for a different kind of summer fun :)

10:26 am

Dorens

no, i have it....but wanted to do it without clue, thanks

10:26 am

JeeWhiz

chiley...sounds like an insect that gathers on dead animals.

10:26 am

indybehr

think of a fly larva minus one consonant

10:26 am

jfarber

So far, -- and only a week -- it's pretty decent, though. Slept 'til 11.

10:26 am

JeeWhiz

sorry dorens

10:27 am

Dorens

no, no problemmm

10:27 am

indybehr

10:27 am

10:28 am

NatLT

I really want magazine to be here

10:28 am

JeeWhiz

to 5/10 or to 6/21 please?

10:28 am

NatLT

but it's not :(

10:28 am

Dorens

the 5/10...think of the mystical fortune cards, change first vowel

10:29 am

jfarber

(Krys: moving over to aim -- need a minute to settle 3-year-old first; see you there...)

10:29 am

JeeWhiz

Thanks Dorens

10:29 am

Dorens

JeeWhiz

10:31 am

JeeWhiz

thanks fmitch

10:31 am

Dorens

10:31 am

FMitch

glad to help :)

10:31 am

Dorens

ta 5/14---geographical term... in russia, mainly

10:32 am

JeeWhiz

Dorens or fmitch, do you have the other to5/10? Thanks....(not the one like the mystical cards that Dorens clued previously)

10:33 am

Dorens

no, sorry

10:33 am

JeeWhiz

All I know is that it uses the t in the next to last row.

10:34 am

Uncagain

hmm, I must not have the right to 4 to make the to 6

10:34 am

FMitch

there is a to4/4 and then the to 5/10 follows it and the only diff is that the last letter is repeated.
Sounds like another name for the Conservative Party in the UK

10:34 am

Dorens

all right, thanks fmithc.

10:34 am

JeeWhiz

Thanks FMitch, that was it!!

10:35 am

FMitch

magic - wan't sure if that would work or not.

10:35 am

Mollusk

okay... going to go clean the flat, then I'll come back when I'm feeling more objective

10:35 am

JeeWhiz

uncagain, use the top left corner

10:36 am

Uncagain

sigh, one of these days, one of those words is going to jump up and bite me

10:36 am

JeeWhiz

The to4 sounds like a lawnmower name

10:36 am

FMitch

It actaully has quite a few meanings if you click on the ? next to the word.

10:36 am

Uncagain

thanx

10:37 am

Dorens

i can't believe i've been doing this for nearly a month and never noticed the ? next to the word. DUhh...thanks fmitch, once again

10:37 am

Atalante

these D6s are stupid words. at least 2 of them are!

10:38 am

JeeWhiz

Dorens, the puzzle is so fun, it is easy to miss such trivial things.

10:39 am

Uncagain

well, off to teach bowling. Good babbling to all

10:39 am

Dorens

right, i just enjoy the searching and the chatting so much...i bet there's lots i never noticed....yesterday was the first day i figured out how to use lickety's list...which was necessary with THAT many words..

10:40 am

ch1212

10:40 am

Dorens

10:41 am

MVA

a lover of pasta was the clue given earlier

10:42 am

FMitch

LOL Dorens,
enjoyment of the game is the main thing :)

10:43 am

Atalante

I am not enjoying it lol! Can't find my last word and its a T4!

10:43 am

Uncagain

10:43 am

Calqhoon

10:43 am

Golux13

is the server really slow or is it just me?

10:43 am

FMitch

It just had a big hic up Golux

10:44 am

Dorens

T + anagram the word that means once more (beginning with an A) minus the N, Cal

10:44 am

ch1212

okay, calqhoon -- the ta 5/14 = ta + 3rd vowel + first two letters for another word for an outdoor door, like one into a garden.

10:45 am

Tiny

first four letters another word for love leave out the u then addvowel consonnantvowel

10:45 am

Tiny

sorry that was for a7

10:46 am

Calqhoon

10:46 am

ch1212

Hi everyone. I'm back (again) can't stay away today

10:47 am

Tiny

10:47 am

10:48 am

Erda

Italian wedding thing: Latin for "I love" + first name of singer Lopez (drop the first letter)

10:48 am

10:53 am

Dorens

10:53 am

ch1212

oo6/33 is more of your oo4/9 ...

10:53 am

Dorens

oh, well if you do this at WORL

10:53 am

Calqhoon

oo6/33 = oo4/9 only more so

10:53 am

ch1212

10:53 am

abe79

oo + consonant + freudian term

10:53 am

indybehr

11:10 am

FMitch

LOL ata - don't worry ((hugs))

11:12 am

FMitch

Note to all new players - the tile and word stats pannels that are displayed under the grid are only there for non pro players for 14 days and then they disappear.

11:13 am

ShadeEagle

CadFan

THe last one! I have 4 4/7's a 4/8 a 4/12 and a 7/44

11:15 am

ShadeEagle

11:17 am

FMitch

Becca - look at the bottom of the page where it says friends of babble and then lists loads of links in green, go to Licketys Babble Clues but I would also reccomend that you look at Angelsongs babble page as there is a lot of info there. Also at some point look at Babblers Anonymous a place used to post thoughts and topics.

11:17 am

Ping

hi steph

72 Temple Owl

abe - lol at your icon - i watched that last night!

11:28 am

Libarebel - an aunt of mine startedtto do up a place in Northern France ready for retirement in about a decade.... she went into the local butcher's shop and asked him in her very best French, 'Have you got a big cock?' She only wanted to know if he coudl supply her with a big chicken as she had neighbours to feed... However, his wife appeared from the bak of the shop., cleaver in hand.... He looked somewhat awward and embarrassed.... and then my aunt realised what she had asked... EEEK!

10:07 pm

Jacula

FDire, is it? Well, I work for the UK Fire Brigades... might have to take care which pic I choose. There again,. I could just leave the one of myself up with Sinead O'Connor's 'Fire and Arhtur Brown's 'Fire' as the soundtracks. ROFLOL.

10:13 pm

Millerhead

10:13 pm

GreyWoulf

Feather -- I was tempted to list my preferred authors, but decided against it because I love so many of them -- at times it is easier to list who I haven't read in the SF/Fantasy field instead

10:13 pm

FranMag

10:13 pm

Millerhead

i had that one, ty

10:13 pm

this is the second time now the to4 with two more vowels at the end is my last word...you think i'd learn that dumb word by now!!

10:28 pm

erjho

I feel stupid -- I cannot for the life of me come up with ai 4/4 no matter how many combos I try! Can someone at least tell me which A it is?

10:28 pm

jaianniah

both 6/36 start with the same four letters- one is a real do*****, the other is the end of a big truck, a bulldo***

10:28 pm

esquian

jai - how do you open tabs? Do you just start a new browser session and toggle between the two, or do you do Lickety's first and come back and enter?

10:28 pm

firefly779

erjho -add two consonants to the ai

10:29 pm

erjho

got it -- thanks! don't know why I missed that.

10:29 pm

jaianniah

ai 4/4 like the study of drawing with an extra vowel

10:29 pm

firefly779

i had a heck of a time with the 4 letter words tonight too

10:29 pm

firefly779

yep LA, everyone missed it i think

10:31 pm

On my computer, you right click on the bottom bar, and then click the option "open window in tab"- at least, that's how I do it, then flip back and forth between the two pages....

that's a big pain in the tushy. I always find myself having to scroll so much when I go between windows. I guess if you work the list in order, it would work, though.

10:55 pm

Wyrd

10:55 pm

LeslieAnn

esquian, all i know is that the puzzle uses something called the enable dictionary, all the words in the puzzle are in there

10:55 pm

GreyWoulf

Because the enable dictionary is wierd, warped and twisted, esquian -- kinda like us!

10:55 pm

Jacula

Enable is Babble's dictionary...we call it DISAble. Nuff said.
