12:04 am

MaryGrace

Dan's plane? Yes on the eczema...ugh.

12:04 am

hetty

I've found one word and it'[s a nasty one

12:04 am

esquian

yeah, poor thing. ...

12:04 am

LeslieAnn

sh 4/5, hetty?

12:04 am

melonheadjujube

tata isn't a word?

12:04 am

esquian

Did I not tell you about the "after trip" yet?

12:05 am

melonheadjujube

past tense nasty - i'm stunned

12:05 am

MaryGrace

It was tentative. Sure, now?

12:05 am

hetty

That's right, Leslie. Great minds.

12:05 am

Unicorn

satan isn't a word?

12:05 am

jillibus

satan not in the dictionary???

12:05 am

esquian

well, I talked to Dan tonight and he said he can fly down on the 12th after work, and then drive back with us on Saturday. We're going to miss his cousin's wedding.

12:06 am

debbinla

you took the words out of my mouth - how can that not be a word??

12:06 am

firefly779

got my new pic, but it might be offensive to some...sorry, just a take on the theme

12:06 am

NatLT

leslie, I just got your email, which dress did we go with, and why does Joy owe you more?

12:06 am

LeslieAnn

hey it's not our fault, hetty, you can make it in like 17 different directions

12:06 am

libarebel

no satan????

12:06 am

esquian

But if you all don't make it up, I won't drive down, thus Dan won't need the ticket.....

12:15 am

libarebel

12:15 am

melonheadjujube

it's nautical - i left a huge inadvertant clue

12:15 am

LeslieAnn

melon, that's only 4 letters

12:15 am

esquian

12:16 am

stidmama

no rats in this one, melon -- that was the last grid... :-)

12:16 am

LeslieAnn

melon = my new favorite player ;)

12:16 am

melonheadjujube

yes the se 7 what's the udder?

12:16 am

stidmama

12:16 am

12:17 am

Norad

me too!

12:17 am

esquian

me too! Teresa is SO excited. What if we have to go to Annie by ourselves????

12:17 am

melonheadjujube

that's a mighty subtle icon stidmama

12:18 am

MaryGrace

Invite Kirsten and kids

12:18 am

MaryGrace

I'll still pay for the ticket

12:18 am

esquian

she's at the beach

12:18 am

stidmama

I know, but is was SO COOL that I couldn't resist. It's much nicer bigger.

12:18 am

Norad

yeah, but they have already abandoned ship haven't they?

12:19 am

esquian

yes, but they still come over. I think she's definitely going to be a "come through the kitchen door" friend.

12:19 am

MaryGrace

Still can be friends. How 'bout your favorite G-store checker?

12:19 am

esquian

she plopped right down on my sofa the other day, like she lives her

12:19 am

esquian

* here

12:19 am

BigKoala

satan not found in the dictionary? huh?

12:19 am

MaryGrace

...or Esqui-aunts

12:19 am

esquian

lol on the checker. I do self checkout!!! :) I do really like my checker. ;)

12:20 am

Unicorn

how many words in the new grid?

12:20 am

stidmama

80 today Unicorn

12:20 am

LeslieAnn

80 little ones, unicorn

12:20 am

Norad

there are only 80

12:20 am

esquian

all of them are in Portugal, except for Nance. Maybe Nance and M.

12:20 am

MaryGrace

...but she doesn't need two tickets, I guess.

12:20 am

stidmama

38 helen, btw

12:20 am

Unicorn

ty

12:20 am

LeslieAnn

left or total, stid?

12:20 am

melonheadjujube

halfway! my cherished goal of mediocrity

12:21 am

Norad

don't give up on us yet...

12:21 am

helenkeller

i'm gonna get you - 45 to go

12:21 am

stidmama

go melon go!

12:21 am

LeslieAnn

i have 35 left hahahaha

12:21 am

stidmama

38 left, 42 found

12:21 am

esquian

but I don't know about getting people to pay, etc. It's kind of an expensive ticket. Might be nice for me and T to go by ourselves. Maybe I can resell them?

12:21 am

firefly779

excellent icon helen

12:21 am

mymuseisme

lol I have 30

12:21 am

MaryGrace

Yes, true, Norad, still hoping.

12:21 am

helenkeller

12:21 am

LeslieAnn

blast... literally, for some icons

12:21 am

melonheadjujube

phantom: exhaust

12:22 am

esquian

12:22 am

helenkeller

ty firefly :)

12:22 am

mymuseisme

that is cool helen

12:22 am

esquian

would it be bad if I didn't go down if he passes?

12:22 am

firefly779

mine's a little further off the beaten path...

12:23 am

Norad

no, it would probably be harder on you...

12:23 am

stidmama

35 left

12:23 am

Norad

remember, I missed U. Eddie and Laura while in Germany

12:23 am

harpjane

80 words, sometimes those are dangerous!

12:23 am

MaryGrace

Norad and I already decided you would not be down for it...we just didn't tell you.

12:23 am

melonheadjujube

6 Ts - does that beatttttt all? {snarl}

12:24 am

helenkeller

firefly - is that a volcano or a bomb?

12:24 am

esquian

oh....well, thanks for making my decision. it's much easier that way. ;)

12:24 am

stidmama

*tossses chocolate to melonhead* there, there, dear....

12:24 am

firefly779

that'd be a mushroom cloud - almost went for a volcano, but picked this instead

12:24 am

LeslieAnn

25 left, but i've hit my wall...

12:24 am

esquian

yeah, I think I missed U. Eddie (godfather) and Laura, too. Where the heck was I? No, wait... I think I made Eddie's

12:24 am

NatLT

dang leslie, I only have 25

12:25 am

MaryGrace

I missed U.Eddie; made Laura's.

12:25 am

LeslieAnn

yeah but you were reading email

12:25 am

Norad

didn't really decide exactly, just thought it might be impossible unless you were already on your way down

12:25 am

mymuseisme

me too leslie

12:25 am

licketySplitAUS

If you need it, Clues are up!

12:25 am

12:25 am

debbinla

yay lickety

12:25 am

esquian

oh wow....would they bury him that fast?

12:26 am

LeslieAnn

stidmama

thanks Lickey! sorry helen, I need clues... brb

12:26 am

mymuseisme

12:26 am

MaryGrace

No, but logistics would be hard w/o one of us up there and Dan not able to go and stay, right?

12:26 am

LeslieAnn

haha then the list for me!

12:27 am

esquian

it would probably only be me

12:27 am

stidmama

12:31 am

Norad

mg, get off that dirty floor! :)

12:31 am

MaryGrace

Actually, I think with the crowd size, it would be less tense than smaller gathering..

12:31 am

Norad

yeah, big bro would be too busy making contacts to worry with us...

12:32 am

stidmama

I have all the A words, 26 to go

12:32 am

MaryGrace

Thanks for contact

12:32 am

esquian

12:32 am

Norad

12:32 am

MaryGrace

When is Kyle coming to clean it?

12:32 am

esquian

The earliest citation of the anatomical form of the word in the Oxford English Dictionary is a reference to the London street name "Gropecunt Lane" dated to about 1230. The earliest citation of the word applied to a person as a term of vulgar abuse is from 1929

They tell you how many words come from each tile so you know where to start. The word stats tell you the qty and size of the words. But be aware that as a non pro user they will go after 14 days.

6:06 am

ShadowWolf

6:06 am

11:27 am

Haz1558

ts5/12 - t plus the Marquis de **** - or add a three letter word for unhappy plus a vowel. The ts6/21 is the plural.

11:27 am

faeriekae

Flask you need to use a list so you know which ones don't have yet

11:27 am

caitlyn

t +sa4/5 then plural

11:28 am

Millerhead

I do, Kat. I got them by luck. I wouldn't spell it THAT way!

11:29 am

katican

flask do you have the april 15th words

11:29 am

Haz1558

Flask, if you enter your words into Lickety's list, you will be able to see which ones you are missing. It makes it much easier for those trying to give you clues if they know the position of the word you're looking for.

11:30 am

faeriekae

Flask ta + backwards b + plural letter

11:30 am

katican

I just figured that out yesterday Hazl, it does make it much easier.

11:46 am

caitlyn

flask just enjoy the game!!!
Hi walnut

11:47 am

katican

Flask, after you click add word, scroll down, and you will see that it added that word for you. Continue to add all of the words you have already, and then you will be able to see what you don't have. :)

11:47 am

walnutchen

11:48 am

Flask1

11:50 am

Katrine

hello. I am new.

11:50 am

featherbee

flask, people start at all different times on the grid, so at any given time, you'll see people finished, or just starting, or somewhere in the middle

11:50 am

11:51 am

faeriekae

11:51 am

Haz1558

My reasoning is that a boy wouldn't take the time to persevere with it.

11:51 am

featherbee

11:52 am

Mollusk

11:52 am

Haz1558

un7/56 - money that the government has not been able to derive income from

11:52 am

GreyWoulf

Haz -- isn't that being a little broad in your reasoning? :)

11:53 am

featherbee

oooh, was that a pun GW?

11:53 am

caitlyn

un7/56 un +ta5/22

11:53 am

leighprefect

Finished! =)

11:53 am

Haz1558

I thought that would bring out the men! Hello GreyWoulf. The other thing that struck me was Flask's distress at feeling stupid/slow.

11:53 am

caitlyn

Hi Grey

11:53 am

GreyWoulf

11:53 am

Katrine

Hello, FMitch

11:55 am

GreyWoulf

Oh, we do accept direction, Fmitch -- it just takes about an extra 2 months so we can claim to hae come up with the idea on our own ;D

11:55 am

Haz1558

So, have you had a busy day today, FMitch?

11:55 am

leighprefect

Hello FMitch

11:56 am

11:57 am

FMitch

LOL GW

Yup been busy today Haz, thankgoodness it was a short grid today.

11:57 am

leighprefect

no problemo

11:57 am

featherbee

wee, that was all i needed for that, just got it

11:57 am

GreyWoulf

same here featherbee -- thanks for asking so I didn't have to!

11:58 am

Katrine

I've only found a few words. Is there a trick to this?

11:58 am

featherbee

np GW...also, did you drop the last letter for the 6?

11:58 am

GreyWoulf

I did now!! ;)

11:58 am

featherbee

hee

11:59 am

Haz1558

Katrine - it takes some practice, but for pointers look at Angelsong's babble resource page, under Friends of Babble. It should help - along with the clues given by those who have got the words already.

11:59 am

leighprefect

Katrine- Use Lickety's list below the game. It gives you the first two letters of each word, the number of letters in the word, and the point value. It helps.

11:59 am

featherbee

i can't believe i'm down to 11 and haven't cracked open the list yet

11:59 am

Paddytt

Good evening all

11:59 am

Katrine

Thank you.

11:59 am

GreyWoulf

Hi Paddy

11:59 am

Haz1558

Good evening Paddytt.

11:59 am

leighprefect

Hi Paddy

11:59 am

caitlyn

Hi Paddy

12:00 pm

Haz1558

You need to pace yourself, featherbee, or you'll finish too soon!

12:00 pm

GreyWoulf

Katrine -- the only real trick to this game is to stick it out long enough for the strange to become so commonplace that you overlook the obvious! :D

12:00 pm

Mollusk

7 to go... going... to... make... it... eventually.

12:00 pm

Paddytt

This one doesn't look too bad, got more time tonight and it's a small one

12:01 pm

featherbee

actually, i need to go paint the living room today, so will be leaving in a few! i'll do one more, then save the last 10 for later

12:01 pm

leighprefect

Go Mollusk and feather!

12:02 pm

leighprefect

feather- You're still painting?!

12:02 pm

featherbee

are there only 3 se's?

12:02 pm

Mollusk

12:02 pm

Haz1558

There are 4 se words

12:02 pm

leighprefect

4 se's

12:03 pm

Mollusk

12:03 pm

featherbee

yep. dining room's completely finished. i took a break yesterday, didn't touch anything. starting on living room today. priming first, then maybe i'll get to do the color in the evening

12:03 pm

GreyWoulf

including the 4 letter one

12:03 pm

leighprefect

se 4 is a misspelling of a group of people, and the 5 is plural

12:03 pm

GreyWoulf

12:03 pm

featherbee

12:04 pm

GreyWoulf

Darn -- I have only one S left to go and I have to go back to work -- I can't even ask which one cos this computer monitor here is too small to open another window for the list

Living with him is alternately fun, perilous, exciting, and stroke-inducing... I often wake up to find him juggling flaming torches in the middle of the kitchen, or high atop his 12-foot unicycle... so life is never dull, and I love him more than life itself :)

4:03 pm

Katrine925

it took a long, long time, and it still isn't 100% sure...they are just telling me that they want to read it and edit for now...very nail-biting!

4:04 pm

5:41 pm

libarebel

nice icons, fran & ch1212!

5:41 pm

5:42 pm

helenkeller

ch1212 - i was just guessing, i wouldn't really know

5:42 pm

ch1212

Wow, franmag -- I just read your icon description -- I lived in Kailua as a girl, and remember some spectacular clouds, especially over the Pali

5:42 pm

FranMag

lib, your's is great too! i love how everyone's take is always different.

5:42 pm

helenkeller

bye faeri :)

5:43 pm

libarebel

ys, interesting theme interpretations! :)

5:43 pm

EvaNadine

i havent updated according to theme in a while....wha IS todays theme?

5:43 pm

ch1212

That's it for me -- anyone need clues before I head out?

5:43 pm

libarebel

ty, fran

5:43 pm

libarebel

clouds

5:43 pm

FranMag

hi ch1212! the NBC station here posts viewers weather shots, there are always beautiful cloud formations. i love kailua, my husband and i would love to live there someday.

5:44 pm

helenkeller

evan - ouds

5:44 pm

ch1212

I lived in Kailua in the late 60's, early 70's, so I am sure it is quite different these days. It was still a small town back then.

5:44 pm

FranMag

or clouds might be easier to search for evan

5:45 pm

helenkeller

bye ch1212 :)

5:45 pm

FranMag

ch, it still has a small town feel, the residents are pretty careful about keeping it non-commercial

5:45 pm

Egregious Jones

Clues for da 5/12 and da6/21?

5:45 pm

helenkeller

LOL fran - uh-huh clouds would be much easier

5:45 pm

ch1212

Now I'm thinking about that song Clouds from Joni Mitchell ... "it's cloud's illusions I recall, I really don't know clouds at all."

5:46 pm

libarebel

judy collins?

5:46 pm

FranMag

we sang that in chorus when i was in junior high!

5:46 pm

ch1212

for the da 5/12, take your da 4/5 and add an extra beverage in the middle, then change your last vowel to the circle vowel .... the plural for the other

5:46 pm

ch1212

Judy Collins sang the song too, but I think Joni wrote it.

5:47 pm

helenkeller

da 5/12 = previous da, double middle consonant & change vowel on end (& pl)

5:47 pm

helenkeller

aren't they the same person ? ;)

5:47 pm

FranMag

lol helen! lib's going to throw something at you.

5:47 pm

libarebel

makes sense, ch1212...googling...

5:48 pm

FranMag

bows and flows of angel hair and ice cream castles in the air...

5:48 pm

ch1212

and feather canyons everywhere, I've looked at clouds that way

5:48 pm

FranMag

and feather canyons everywhere...i've looked at clouds that way

5:48 pm

libarebel

you are correct, ch1212!

5:49 pm

Katrine925

It was Judy....

5:49 pm

libarebel

lol, helen!

5:49 pm

helenkeller

lib would never throw anything at me - i have been helping lib find 4 letter words all day long! she would be lost without me, but she also wouldn't smell like fish, hehehe

5:49 pm

ch1212

But now they only block the sun ... they rain and snow on everyone

5:49 pm

helenkeller

oh, now you guys are scaring me!!!

5:49 pm

Eva

so many things I would have done, but clouds go in the way

5:49 pm

libarebel

Ismell like tu4/5...

5:49 pm

ch1212

:D okay, okay ... any last clues needed before I go?

5:50 pm

helenkeller

LOL lib - i think it's starting to wear off now :)

5:50 pm

Katrine925

So did Judy sing it and Joni write it????

5:50 pm

libarebel

so many things I would have done...

5:50 pm

Eva

I look at life from both sides now, from up and down, and still somehow.......

5:50 pm

ch1212

They both recorded it at one time or another, but Judy's was the bigger hit

5:50 pm

ch1212

... depending on who you ask. Joni fans would tell you her version was the best, of course.

5:51 pm

libarebel

my SO would be suspicious re: tu4/5 aroma...

5:51 pm

Katrine925

Judy went to my college for a brief time...

5:51 pm

ch1212

I learned Judy's version on my guitar.

5:51 pm

ch1212

Wow, katrine925. Her godfather lived here in Idaho, where her grandfather lived too.

5:52 pm

Katrine925

Small world.....

5:52 pm

FranMag

hi eva!

5:52 pm

Eva

saw an amazing retrospective on Bob Dylan on PBs the other night-took me back to being 16 and seeing him perform at Forrest Hills Stadium-now you guys have me time traveling again

5:52 pm

ch1212

She wrote a beautiful song called "Secret Gardens" and there was a wonderful line: "The Idaho winds blow the topsoil away every Spring..."

5:52 pm

Eva

Hi fran!

5:53 pm

ch1212

Well, hearing no takers for clues, I am signing off. Happy babbling!

5:53 pm

helenkeller

5:59 pm

libarebel

5:59 pm

FranMag

5:59 pm

Katrine925

5:59 pm

musicmom

I just did a navigational badge with the girl scouts. UGH!

5:59 pm

helenkeller

that must be it lib !! cool shower, some nice ice tea perhaps?

5:59 pm

libarebel

maybe a frosty!

6:00 pm

helenkeller

lol music - i think we are so used to having to hunt for the trees, we actually can't see them without the forest

6:00 pm

FranMag

musicmom, i noticed you teach kindermusik. my kids were going to Music Together, have you heard of it?

6:00 pm

musicmom

I have heard of it but have never experienced it.

6:01 pm

FranMag

that's it helen, i think i get all the wierd words first now.

6:01 pm

musicmom

I love Kindermusik. I was a KM parent first --- Hannah's teacher talked me into getting my license

6:02 pm

Katrine925

Something weird just happened...Red "Profile" words lit up next to your names...why?

6:02 pm

FranMag

probably similar then, we dance and sing with the teacher and the kids dance and sing along...or not.

6:02 pm

musicmom

It's very similar. Do you get home materials with each semester?

6:02 pm

FranMag

oooh, i don't have that katrine!

6:02 pm

musicmom

And, are parents required to participate.

6:03 pm

FranMag

yes MM, we get a song book and CDs with all the songs on them...and yes, parents have to participate

6:04 pm

musicmom

It is similar then. There is also a company called Music Garden. Each company has a slightly different licensure procedure for its teachers.

6:05 pm

FranMag

i see, i'm glad they're similar then. kindermusic was too far away, but it sounds like they are getting the same kind of exposure to music

6:05 pm

musicmom

How old are your children?

6:06 pm

FranMag

my son is 3, he's been going for over a year, my daughter is 1 now and started going when she was 3 months old

6:10 pm

Katrine925

I am not very good at clues....

6:10 pm

musicmom

That is excellent about your children taking class so early Fran. I love my baby classes. I hope no one from home office is a babbler, but I think the choice you made to give them something closer to home so they would have music exposure is great!

6:11 pm

musicmom

If you all enjoy it. That's a good program.

6:11 pm

FranMag

that was a fine clue katrine!

6:11 pm

libarebel

6:11 pm

FranMag

Katrine925

Oh! Okay, I am new at this....

6:12 pm

musicmom

Lots of my families take a semester off here and there. I got the month of June off as a surprise because everyone did that:-P

6:12 pm

musicmom

I should be teaching again in August and then our full semesters start again in September

6:13 pm

FranMag

that se6/33 has a medical dictionary link and i didn't look it up, but for our purposes we'll just say it's the result of making whoopee in the outdoors.

6:13 pm

nick03

Anyone looking for a good way to warm up your brain before Babbling, I recommend the games at www.theproblemsite.com. They're quick, and they let you flex your mental muscles a few different ways. I especially recommend the puzzles behind the "Quote Puzzler" link, where you can find my favorites: Word Builder and Top Letters and In-and-Out.

8:04 pm

libarebel

8:04 pm

FranMag

yay COP!!!!!!

8:04 pm

Ping

yes i agree and there are ways to reinterpret the events of her life without the frame of, "she says this, but...." i think the writer must be an academic because her narrative reaked of the "i'm right" attitude

8:04 pm

Krista

FranMag..do you get the full effect of those clouds from the ground, or do you have to be looking down on them as in the photo? Very cool.

8:04 pm

Katrine925

Because I only play once in a great while, and I'm not good enough for a band yet. My violin teacher wants to get me into orchestra with my violin soon though.

8:06 pm

Katrine925

Satan is capitalized

8:06 pm

Krista

8:06 pm

Katrine925

Hey! I play viola!

8:06 pm

shutterbug

I only play my reed instrument once in a while.

8:06 pm

shutterbug

Hey, thats sooo cool!

8:06 pm

Krista

8:07 pm

libarebel

8:07 pm

Katrine925

I was in orch from 4th grade all thru HS- won the Nat"l Music Award Senior Year....

8:07 pm

8:07 pm

libarebel

8:07 pm

FranMag

8:07 pm

Krista
