1:16 am
Bambam
seriously that is funny... internet not in the dictionary... its lost in cyberspace (which probably isn't a word either)
1:16 am
jaianniah
It tells you to do something- to en*** a word

Euterpe

1:25 am
Merk
I looked and looked at that and couldn't figure out how to make it. Some days my eyes do not want to cooperate ... or is it my brain? Thanks

2:17 am
mattygroves
Hey Jai - I got words that go with your definitions - but not eight letter words...
2:17 am

Just add two of the second vowel to the end of that one, rolin.

2:20 am
Euterpe
Ok. Start with a pe 4/5. An annoying insect or rodent.
2:21 am
Euterpe
Then build your way up.
2:22 am
jaianniah
I leave for two minutes, and you folks start blabbling away! LOL
2:22 am
Euterpe
Haha. We planned it!
2:22 am
rolin

2:22 am
Andree
Matty, you are not the first [or last] on the subject of internet, can't beleive it
2:23 am
Euterpe
Aww. Labs are such pretty dogs.
2:23 am
jaianniah
I ADORE them , have a black lab rescued from a hurricane, named for the hurricne- Ivan.
2:23 am
Andree

2:23 am
Euterpe
Aww. How sweet!
2:23 am
evilolive

2:25 am

I dunno...they spend a LOT of time wrestling.....LOL
2:25 am
rolin
evil..my puppy...despite having a pedegree as long as my arm.....failed puppy school..lol
2:25 am
Euterpe
I'd love to have another dog. Mine passed years ago. She was a cocker spaniel. Don't know if the cats would like the idea too much, though. ;)
2:26 am
jaianniah
Ivan is about the same....I also have rescued cats- three blind and seven altogether....I'm nuts....
2:26 am
evilolive
hehe rolin. i was scared we were going to fail puppy school too, but we made it through. doing level 2 obedience now....
2:27 am
Andree

2:27 am
Euterpe
Nah. You just love animals! I've been rescuing the cats that live around the house. So far I've managed to convert two females to the life of an indoor cat. The males on the other hand... :P
2:28 am
mattygroves
Do you neuter the cats?
2:28 am
rolin
ok..im impressed...george was doing really well at the final presentation...until she got hot...and there were buckets around the perimeter.. she got close enough..stuck her head in a bucket..i laughed and she slipped from my hand...she ran around wih the bucket on her head..sent the other dogs beserk.......we were asked to leave...lmao
2:28 am
jaianniah
Yes! And they don't go outside- too many hunters like to practice on them...
2:29 am
jaianniah
LOLOL, Rolin!
2:30 am
Euterpe
Planning on it, when I have the money. One of the females is fixed, the other we haven't been able to take care of yet.
2:30 am
jaianniah
Oh, lovely, so you have "kitty chorus" like I do from time to time.....
2:32 am
Euterpe
Haha. The "kitty chorus" is coming up soon, I think.
2:32 am
jaianniah
We call it "burbling" or "having the burbles"....
2:33 am
jaianniah
But we only have eunichs in our harem.....
2:33 am
Euterpe
That's definitely what it sounds like. Eesh!
2:34 am
mattygroves
Male cats can father sooooo many kittens - and, of course, they are much harder to entice inside (and can spray as well)
2:34 am
jaianniah
I can do the most amazing inpersonations of cats in heat....
2:35 am
Blaze
now that's a strange chatter to come in on......
2:35 am
jaianniah
A dubious talent
2:36 am
Euterpe
The males do like to prowl. In the process of taming one right now, though. Hi Blaze! :P
2:36 am
jaianniah
LingMAO!!!
2:37 am

Evening or Morning all
2:39 am

2:55 am
mattygroves
I'm missing one b. Those last two eights are baffling me still as well.

Morning Haz.
3:03 am
Haz1558
This looks like a benevolent grid - or are appearances deceptive?
3:04 am
Euterpe
I'd say it's pretty benevolent!
3:05 am
FMitch
Morning Haz
Babble had a bit of a hi-cup there! Good grid today, so far.
3:05 am
Haz1558
Technical problems with the site?
3:06 am
FMitch
It threw up a couple of error messages so I had to refresh but seems OK now.
3:06 am
Euterpe
Yikes. I had that happen to me yesterday.
3:07 am
M3
that happens to me all the time. !!
3:07 am
Haz1558
It had seemed to be operating quite smoothly - remember how often it crashed in the early days of the new layout?
3:08 am
FMitch
Oh yes, how quickly one forgets.
3:09 am
FMitch
I have got so intent on not typing words into the chatbox, that today I keep typing the chat into the word box!!!
3:09 am
Haz1558
And remember how we all protested at the new layout? Have you come to terms with the changes now?
3:10 am
FMitch
Still preferred the way the chat log was before
3:12 am

3:13 am
ARB
This is a fun grid -- not too many wierd words -- or is it that I'm becoming more used to wierd words???
3:13 am
ARB
weird or wierd?
3:13 am
FMitch
Hi Dianne, which bit the log layout or the paranoia LOL?
3:14 am
ARB
Both look strange
3:14 am
Haz1558
Speaking of paranoia, no return visits from loopy lupine?
3:15 am
Dianne
Soooo funny FMitch - I typed my answer to you in the "add word" box. So I guess I was inadvertently referring to both!
3:15 am
FMitch
Not so far, under any pseudonyms!
3:16 am
Haz1558
Happy days!
3:16 am
KatieMcG
Got the day off and it a nice big grid :-) today I might even get fireworks for the first time since the world cup started!!

FMitch
Helps to have a nice smattering of vowels and an s.
3:36 am

3:39 am
amandacath
Morning all! The first 70 went quickly - how many more am I looking for (besides that pa8, which I'm hunting down now)?
3:40 am
Haz1558
It's plural part of a horse's foot between fetlock and hoof. Structured as a combination of history and a popular babble fish.
3:41 am
Haz1558
Fish? Bird, I should have said.
3:41 am
FMitch
Magic thanks Haz, as an ex horse owner as soon as you said it I saw it.
3:42 am
Haz1558
Glad you got it!
3:42 am
Katrine925
Isn't anyone going to say, "yay!" for me? :o(
3:43 am
amandacath
Ahhhh, the babble bird gave it to me - thx, haz

Hello, Mr. P. We were wondering why the word "internet" is not an acceptable word....
4:07 am
Haz1558
Are you still enjoying country living or have you returned to the city?
4:07 am
amandacath
Wow, you're right, it's not! That is truly odd
4:07 am
mrpresident
that is too funny!! it is a word but it isn't in the dr_god dictionary... that is just amazing!!
4:08 am
jaianniah
I know- I think it is really bad when a word like "unthink" is a word, but not "internet".
4:08 am
mrpresident
Haz, I got home today!! Flew in at lunchtime! back to my wonderful house! and my 100Mbps!
4:09 am

5:10 am
Euterpe
The number on the letter?
5:11 am
masfalda
down the letter
5:11 am
Quoth
244 words total.
5:11 am
Euterpe
The numbers on the letters are just like in Scrabble. They determine how many points each word is worth.
5:11 am
Quoth
Klinsmann, the German Football teams coach
5:11 am
amandacath

5:12 am
masfalda
aha ok, gracias
5:12 am

5:15 am
masfalda
jajajajaja ok
5:19 am
Buttonman
Haz, I am new at this....what list are you referring to and how do I find it...
5:22 am
Euterpe
Lickety's Babble Clues, there's a link to it at the bottom of the page. Where it says: Friends of Babble.
5:23 am
amandacath
and I'm off again, bbl to finish
5:24 am
Buttonman
Thanks, Euterpe
5:25 am
Euterpe
Welcome. It's a lot of help when you get stuck!
5:26 am
Buttonman
Hi, everyone. I am Buttonman and I upgrades to pro yesterday. I understand the stats at the bottom but where do you get the two letters and the stat combined....such as en 5/10?
5:27 am
Euterpe
I get it usually from Lickety's page. In the example you gave, the en would stand for the first two letters of the words, the 5 for the total number of letters, and the 10 for the total number of points that word is worth.
5:28 am
Buttonman
Thanks!
5:28 am
Euterpe
So in your example, the word starts with En, has 5 letters, and is worth 10 points.
5:28 am
Euterpe
No problem. :)
5:31 am
Buttonman
Euterpe, just found the list and thanks a bundle!
5:32 am
masfalda

8:12 am
brandyjack
i take that back, tides isn't a 4
8:13 am
brandyjack
but, the aloha duck is still the one following the tides. Where it makes it's home is the next one, and then comes the butterfly catcher.
8:13 am
Raygoddess
i can't get the alohaa duck clue, am i stupid?
8:13 am
Anj
Raygoddess, the word starts from the bottom right N if that helps...
8:14 am
brandyjack
think of the sound european police and ambulance make..... And no, you are not stupid. That clue is more for those of us who have encounter the thing in past puzzles. Just like the Hawaiian white guy 'haole'....

don't usually jump in here, but something very odd: I've got a 9 letter word (in*) which we all know and love -- and are using right now -- that isn't being accepted as a word. Is this right?
10:24 am
Katrine925
Wal-paper hanger+en + plural
10:24 am
Tiny
think of patterns but change third letter
10:24 am
Tiny
yes greenery
10:24 am

greenery -- if that word is 'internet' you are right :)
10:25 am
ch1212
although being mathmatically challenged I just realized that word only has 8 letters.
10:25 am
Katrine925
As I said, I told Mr. President himself, and he is going to look into it...
10:25 am
amandacath
yep, greenery that's right, or wrong, depending on how you look at it. Strange, isn't it?
10:25 am
ch1212
okay, I was supposed to be taking a little break :D back later!!! (tears self away from keyboard)
10:25 am

Now, that's just perverse. Not accepting internet -- and you're right about the count. Sorry.
10:26 am
Euterpe
the pa 8/45 is plural of the pa 7/32 which has to do with the anatomy of a horse's foot... (I think.)
10:26 am

in is tb someone who tries to help in a fight yuo in*******
10:26 am
Aloyisius
well, it could have been pl, IF it was accepted :-(
10:27 am
Katrine925
I suppose if one wanted to get technical, it could be said that it is the Internet- with a capital letter- and that maybe is why it is not included....but if unthink is a word, then "interente" should be, too....
10:27 am
Charm
I was really slow on the uptake on that pa! Thanks for all the clues.
10:27 am
Katrine925
that's internet....
10:28 am

11:00 am
ch1212
oops, you're right une -- sorry! Atalante, your pearls are gorgeous! TO picked out a ring she has tried on, and I'm using rings my beloved and I designed (photo doesn't do it justice). Wonder how many more of us are featuring our own stuff today?

Temple Owl, that pa 8 is a weird word, not the as 6 you are thinking of, but close. Think of a minister, then add a consonant to it, then plural

TO, well, its about seven inches tall, dense, dark, and lucious. It's baked with Guinness, so the cake isn't overtly sweet, just decadent. Then the frosting is made with Bailies... Last year on my birthday, we got whole one... I had the most awesome week of cake consumption ever.

4:57 pm
daybyday
Do you know why HK can't drive?
4:57 pm
Babbler
no way. it wouldn't be over-kill. some of us (ie me!) only come in to chat nowadays! lol!

Atalante
it would be perfect!
4:57 pm
Babbler
uh oh, troll alert
4:58 pm
helenkeller
babbler - that's what i told him!! we exchanged a few e-mails on the topic - but he was rather adamant
4:58 pm

4:58 pm
hurshy
doc is an adamant fellow
4:58 pm
Babbler
:'( we should beg and beg and beg. or just chat in the chat log and get lots of other people to beg on our behalf1
4:58 pm
helenkeller
i tried to argue the case for outside chat, i am not one to give up easily - alot of gaiming sites have it, it's a very nice feature - maybe if others asked too *hk crosses fingers*
4:59 pm
Babbler
ah, ok, featherbee. haven't been in for ages, so I don't know. : )
4:59 pm
hurshy

4:59 pm
Atalante

5:41 pm
helenkeller
ginger- the pom -plays what i call 'the eek-eek game' she started it with our med. size rescue dog who is rather stoic to begin with - she just stands on her hind legs, puts her paws on the bigger dogs face & makes this god-awfull ee-eek screechy noise, like someone is killing her - it always freaks out the company, but it's pretty funnny
5:41 pm

Singapore Airlines (along with Emirates the best I think).... Qantas is THE WORST (as are the American airlines!!)
7:11 pm
FranMag
they are the best, especially first class!
7:12 pm
FranMag
at least that's what i've read. haven't been on that carrier.
7:12 pm
Bambam
yes different class to the Aust/US airlines.... and Emirates is superb too. Last time I flew Qantas they charged me $250 excess for golf clubs and I swore I would never fly them again (unless I had no choice whatsoever)
7:13 pm
Bambam
The quality of an airline is directly correlated to political correctness I find
7:14 pm
FranMag
Continental (at least with a Guam or Hawaii based crew) has great Business First service.
7:15 pm
Bambam
i.e. the more PC the crappier they are! ** a very sexist chauvenist remark but every woman i know agrees **
7:15 pm
FranMag
i really liked 1st Class on Cathay Pacific also
7:15 pm
debbinla
my boss wanted to fire me cause he was booked on a flight to new zealand on quatas and the first class seats recline 180 degrees - but they're on a slight (i mean slight) slant - he had a FIT and was screaming - (i've been with him 18 years) -- AND he wanted a direct flight and the only other airline was air new zealand - who had no seats - and he knew all this - but he screamed and screamed like a madman - WHEW - glad i got that all off my chest!
7:15 pm

first ti 5 please
7:16 pm
1j2u3d4y
what is his problem
7:16 pm
Bambam
yeah some of the western carriers have good Bizz/First but that's because they can roster the more cheerful staff there..... Qantas or United economy class you get the union-protected grumps
7:16 pm
debbinla
(sorry - quantas sets me off)
7:16 pm
1j2u3d4y
did you yell back at him?
7:16 pm
Bambam
Deb you said you were in the movie bizz..... sounds like a prima dona

nah, i just listened, thought about my paycheck, thought about how i babble all day and then watch the mets games and let him yell (i am furiously looking for another job)
7:17 pm

Hi, all
Makes me glad I hate to fly reading this chat, lol
7:17 pm
Bambam
in australia we say Qantas stands for Queers and Nerds Trained as Stewards (no offense to any gay people)
7:17 pm
debbinla
yes, i work for a producer -- such a prima dona .... i mean if the seats don't recline 180 degrees he can't fly - puh-lease! (and it's always first class) --
7:18 pm
Bambam
sounds like what we like to call a "total wanker"!!

nice stars 've worked with, sharon stone (funny as hell, no pretense at all, though she admitted she was sucked into the whole diva thing for years) susan sarandon (star or not completely down to earth and the ultimo test, her kids were polit, unspoiled and just good kids), richard dreyfuss (kept everybody from the lowliest cash extra to the director in stitches. lots of very nice actors out there and no shortage of wankers, just like real life
