You're just jealous because the voices only talk to ME.

Beer: It's not just for breakfast anymore.

So you're a feminist. Isn't that cute?

I need someone real bad. Are you real bad?

Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder.

The more you complain the longer God makes you live.

I R S: We've got what it takes to take what you've got.

Hard work has a future payoff. Laziness pays off now.

Reality is a crutch for people who can't handle drugs.

Out of my mind - back in five minutes.

Without ME, it's just AWESO.

As long as there are tests, there will be prayer in public schools.

Life would be easier if I had the source code.

Hang up and drive.

Nebraska: At least the cows are sane.

God must love stupid people. He made SO many.

I said "no" to drugs, but they didn't listen.

Your kid may be an Honor Student, but YOU'RE still an idiot.

I fish, therefore I lie.

Smile, it's the second best thing you can do with your lips.

I took an IQ test and the results were negative.

Good thinking, mrP!

4:17 am

KittyVane

I'm still upset that "Lurex" isn't a proper word, and that "poot" isn't accepted either

Lurex...?? sounds like a sleazy condom

lurex and durex, perfectly common words they have become.
But not to enable.
Lurking in the middle ages, enable manages to hold down millions of babblers from all over the world.

4:19 am

"poot" is what I use to onomatopoetically describe a small fart

FranMag

5:26 am

The Goddess

you guys are great! I've always wondered what that stuff meant, going in blind

5:26 am

FranMag

5:27 am

FranMag

5:31 am

Spanky

is the word "trinity" in this puzzle

5:32 am

lynxxx

just type it in spanky - you will soon see

5:33 am

Spanky

i am guessing that you can't repeat a letter you have already used in the word? Is that correct?

5:33 am

lynxxx

ps spanky - the convention is to not type words or possible words into the chat. only clues.

5:34 am

magzel

i don't quite get that clue sprite

5:34 am

lynxxx

Spanky - no, you can use that one letter many times - just not in the same word.

5:34 am

Spanky

thanks.

5:35 am

Dianne

magzel - monkey plus first 3 letter of a kind of bread.

5:37 am

Dianne

5:37 am

The Goddess

5:42 am

The Goddess

I've seen 'fireworks' a lot tonight, what does that mean...? a clue or what?

5:42 am

lynxxx

Goddess - 'weird 'compound words are really very common in Babble - especially for the long words - this one is two words a four and then a three.

5:42 am

lynxxx

Congrats Sha!

5:42 am

The Goddess

thanks, I'll keep looking

5:43 am

The Goddess

got it...thanks!

Hello Biltong

6:03 am

Biltong

Dianne, I don't get your clue for the ka6. Another word for country?

6:06 am

Dianne

o.k. - think of the word for when you have to sparingly share the food and start it with a k instead of an r.

6:07 am

Biltong

Ahh, got it now. Thanks!

6:07 am

lshult

okay, I give up......Can't find the 7!! Help please??????

6:09 am

lshult

got it, thanks Goddess

6:11 am

Dianne

I have to go soon - anyone need any more clues?

6:14 am

Andree

I'm off goodnight everyone

6:14 am

lynxxx

Goddess - the convention is to not spell out any part of the word - except the first two letters of course. just find another word that means it - for instance I said male instead of saying the last word as you did. Most people enjoy the challenge of nutting out the answer themselves - indeed the more cryptic the better.

6:15 am

lynxxx

nite Andree

6:16 am

Andree

hear hear lynxxx, part of the fun is tearing out your hair trying to work out the clue

6:16 am

Dianne

Got to go - have fun all.

6:22 am

star1

6:22 am

6:26 am

keeeen

I'm totally new at this...how long does it usually take people to get this?

6:27 am

lynxxx

Goddess - there is a ha4.6 5.18 and 4.5 - what are you missing?

6:29 am

lynxxx

keeen - the time totally depends on the sizde of the grid and usually experience as your vocab will build up. The grid last night was over 300 words but that can take as long as one with 70 words. It is really hard to say how long it takes!

6:29 am

The Goddess

ummm, I have the one that beats in my body

6:29 am

The Goddess

and the one that plays to my ears

6:31 am

The Goddess

hee hee, I just got it by adding a letter DOH

6:31 am

lynxxx

OK then you are missing ha5.18 - which means it has five letters with a point score of 18 ( a tile value of 9 - as 5 letter words are worth double). I gave the words in alphabetical order to you which means it comes alphabetically after the music one - and you just got it - YAY

6:32 am

The Goddess

thanks, I'm starting to understand the whole stat thing better now

6:32 am

The Goddess

that top A word is killing me

6:32 am

The Goddess

10:33 am

ladynoire1013

Okay, if Babble takes French words, why isn't noire a word

10:33 am

shorty

I went on KA**** and gave this guy a KI** (said with a lisp) :)

10:33 am

ladynoire1013

Mm, my hubby loves sloe plums

10:33 am

EvaNadine

lady -- no "E" at the end. :)
its accepted then.

10:33 am

Jacula

ladyn - it is if you take the vowel off the end.

10:33 am

My grannie made sloe gin--also dandelion wine--she was convinced neither was alcoholic since she made them in her own kitchen

10:34 am

shorty

that was ka6/30 and ki4/9 ladynoire

ladynoire1013

Pain killer HEtty

10:42 am

Rocky

thanks Jacula & LeslieAnn, I was trying to use the other ar.

10:42 am

ladynoire1013

like Percocet

10:42 am

hetty

Thanks Jac., everything I've tried of yours has been simply scrumptious

10:42 am

raelite

you know it as oxycontin...it's the pill house pops on tv

10:43 am

hetty

I don't recognize these names. Strictly an ibuprofen person me ( for arthritic pain)

10:43 am

ladynoire1013

KL, go the pharmacy - you can get an over the counter med for your pain - turns your urine orange, but it works

10:43 am

ladynoire1013

Vicodin is not oxycontin - not as powerful

10:44 am

raelite

are you sure you're not thinking of oxycocet?

10:44 am

LeslieAnn

hmm wish the grid took oprah (i know, proper noun)

10:44 am

ladynoire1013

its oxycodone in the generic

10:44 am

Jacula

Recipe's in BabAnon now, hetty. I'm glad you've enjoyed what you tried so far. I do like to hear feedback from people.

10:45 am

raelite

I always had to double check that one when we got rxs for it in the pharmacy

10:45 am

ladynoire1013

oops, sorry, its hydrocodone

10:45 am

ladynoire1013

percocet is oxycodone

10:45 am

shorty

oxycontin is a powerful pain killer used usually for cancer patients. vicodin is used for when you have surgery or back pains ect.

10:45 am

raelite

yes, that's right

10:45 am

ladynoire1013

I cant take oxycontin - too much respiratory suppression

10:46 am

ladynoire1013

Right, Shorty - its nasty, evil stuff - very addictive

10:46 am

shorty

yeppers sure is

10:46 am

ladynoire1013

I thought House took morphine

10:46 am

raelite

no he takes vico

10:46 am

ladynoire1013

anyway, I take vicodin for a torn rotator cuff

10:47 am

raelite

as far as I know, morphine doesn't come in a tablet

10:47 am

ladynoire1013

Mmm, I saw one ep, he was injecting Morphine

10:47 am

ladynoire1013

yes, morphine comes in oral meds

10:47 am

raelite

he was injecting it, but those pills he pops are vicodin

10:47 am

ladynoire1013

and liquid too - the pediatric liquid is Smurf blue

10:47 am

raelite

morphine comes in capsules only

10:48 am

raelite

15,30,60,100,200mg

10:48 am

ladynoire1013

Nope, the pediatric morphine is a liquid - its Windex blue

10:48 am

raelite

and liquid, oral, sc, bucc, and supps

10:48 am

ladynoire1013

but ped's only get very small doses, much smaller than 15mg

10:49 am

raelite

ped take liquid...usuallly 1mg/ml quant or less

10:49 am

Jacula

Aw, shame Babble doesn't allow 'yampy'! (It's a Brummie/Black Country expression for 'nuts/crazy/bonkers'.)

10:49 am

ladynoire1013

Rae - you got a PDR over there?

10:49 am

raelite

no I work in a pharmacy...

10:50 am

LeslieAnn

pyra - a female pyro. babble is sexist.

10:50 am

raelite

I do cancer patients all the time...unfortch

10:50 am

ladynoire1013

Ohh, cool - the morphine liquid for peds, is it still blue?

10:50 am

raelite

I know all about the druggles

10:50 am

Jacula

no 'parp' allowed either...:(

10:50 am

raelite

it does come in the blue (windex) and it also comes unflavoured

10:51 am

ladynoire1013

EW, unflavored, that must be vile

10:51 am

LeslieAnn

oh wait no pyro either. nvm ;)

10:51 am

chj

brava leslieann

10:51 am

ladynoire1013

I"m allergic to morphine, so I can't take it, but the blue color always made me laugh (I'm a nurse)

10:51 am

raelite

well I've never tried it personally, but it does smell kind of like vodka

10:51 am

ladynoire1013

Yuck!

10:52 am

raelite

if you're on liquid morphine, you're really not caring about the taste at that point

10:52 am

ladynoire1013

I'm allergic to codeine, morphine, NSAIDS, aspartame .... the list just goes on

10:52 am

LeslieAnn

chj are you still recovering from last night?

10:52 am

ladynoire1013

Rae, thats sad but true

10:52 am

raelite

that sucks...I'm not allergic to them but I can't take any of them either (autoimmune disease)

10:53 am

ladynoire1013

which one, if you don't mind me asking?

10:53 am

raelite

it's the buccal shots that freak me out

10:53 am

raelite

I have lupus

10:53 am

ladynoire1013

refresh my memory - buccal shots are under the tongue?

10:54 am

raelite

no, worse, in the cheek

10:54 am

ladynoire1013

I didn't know lupus patients cant take morphine

10:54 am

ladynoire1013

I knew it was in the mouth somewhere

10:54 am

raelite

I can't take any drugs, the lupus is in my blood

10:54 am

ladynoire1013

its been a long time since I practiced real nursing

10:54 am

ladynoire1013

10:55 am

I always think though that life isn't easy for anyone, we all have to face challanges and mountains

11:07 am

ladynoire1013

That is very true, Rae

11:07 am

ladynoire1013

for some its physical, for others its mental or spiritual

11:07 am

raelite

and there are times when I wish I could just be normal for even a minute and not have to take drugs every day

11:07 am

caitlyn

Thats very true rae but some people dont cope as well as others

11:08 am

stidmama

I want "tonka" to be found in the dictionary... I played with those trucks all the time when I was a kid (I know, proper noun, but still!)

11:08 am

LeslieAnn

babble helps me cope. for many years, I sat and endlessly played the word games on yahoo -- and the arcade games -- because life was so scary. Now that I have babble I get a LOT done, and I can look forward to sitting down with either game or friends when I need. {{{Dr_God}}}

11:10 am

stidmama

I spend a little bit of time babbling, then when I hit a wall I get up and work for 15 -20 minutes (if it's housework); or an hour or so (if it's art); then I babble some more :-)

raelite

12:06 pm

musicmom

Yep that's what I thought inge. You shop like I do.

12:08 pm

72 Temple Owl

merci

12:08 pm

inge

In Elsass Lorraine there is a town where every piece of land is covered with daffodils in spring. A sea of yellow everywhere That's what we are trying for in our little wooded area.

12:09 pm

stidmama

oh, you didn't musicmom! LOL Fabrics are my other addiction... I need a "keeper" when I have to go to that store!

12:09 pm

jaianniah

How pretty!

12:09 pm

musicmom

There is a hillside like that here Inge. Very beautiful.

12:09 pm

raelite

hey stid, where do you get your silk?

12:09 pm

abe79

caitlyn- cheers to you! (sorry, was distracted by coworker)

12:09 pm

musicmom

No I didn't - actually. A friend is getting ready to move and was cleaning out things and I sent me a bunch of pieces she didn't want any more.

12:10 pm

stidmama

oh, how lovely that would be, inge! I have ancestors from Alsatz. They came in the early 1800s and settled in Ohio then my branch moved to Iowa... My mother and father visited that region when they were last in France.

12:10 pm

caitlyn

I love seeing the daffodils in spring around here they are on the side of roads as well as in the gardens

12:10 pm

musicmom

But it was funny because he thought I did. He doesn't really care about the $$ but can't figure out why I need so much fabric. I have a very large cabinet in the storage building that is packed full.

12:11 pm

inge

We lived for a year (l991-2) in FReiburg, Germany. France was only three miles away.

12:11 pm

stidmama

I have been getting the scarves from Dharma Trading Company. But there is a local source (would be considerably more expensive to do this) that has bolts of "peace silk" that doesn't harm the worms...

12:11 pm

jaianniah

It was like that back in Illinois where I am from- tiger lilies all over the roadsides.....

12:11 pm

stidmama

I bet that was neat, inge!

12:11 pm

ladynoire1013

Dharma has very nice silk though

12:12 pm

musicmom

Oh that would be good stid. I think she you should get some <VBG>

12:12 pm

ladynoire1013

Are we talking about fabric?

12:12 pm

ladynoire1013

I've been wanting to make a silk quilt

12:12 pm

musicmom

I think YOu should get some. sheesh where did that she come from?

12:12 pm

musicmom

yes lady.

12:12 pm

stidmama

I am planting daffys under the trees in my "orchard" and lilies and other things. I cannot mow on the slope, and Tom doesn't enjoy it much either.

12:12 pm

raelite

wow eco friendly silk...that is nifty.

12:12 pm

musicmom

I work mostly in 100% cotton but have been doing crazy quilting with silks, satin and velvet.

12:13 pm

jaianniah

MM, I envy you! I wish I could do that!

12:13 pm

ladynoire1013

there's something out there called soy silk, made from soy protein

12:13 pm

stidmama

the only difficulty with the peace silk will be making the scarves, though I think it would be a good excuse to sit in the evenings and watch TV while I hem them.

12:13 pm

ladynoire1013

I've only seen it in embroidery silks thought

12:13 pm

stidmama

Oh -- a type of soy "rayon" -- hadn't heard of that, will need to go looking!

12:13 pm

ladynoire1013

whats peace silk?

12:14 pm

ladynoire1013

someone on ebay sells it

12:14 pm

musicmom

Thanks jai. It is a great relaxation for me. Though I have to say babble has cut into my sewing time. I guess it is all about choices.

12:14 pm

stidmama

post at 12:11 lady

12:14 pm

ladynoire1013

oh, so they don't kill the worms before they unravel the cocoons?

12:15 pm

stidmama

babble has cut into all sorts of things! but I do have to get my day started. Boys are watching the third Indiana Jones movie, so I can take a shower in peace and get some laundry going.

12:15 pm

musicmom

I have been making Christmas stockings for the girls. I have been using their Christmas and Easter dresses from when they were babies and toddlers. One side is pastel and light (Easter dresses) the other is traditional colors.

12:15 pm

stidmama

that's right, lady. I like that -- but it's considerably MORE expensive...

12:15 pm

ladynoire1013

oh how pretty Music

12:15 pm

musicmom

I wish I were there to watch with them stid. Love those movies.

12:15 pm

stidmama

that is such a great idea musicmom...

12:15 pm

ladynoire1013

I bet - what do they do, wait until the worms hatch, then harvest the silk?

12:15 pm

musicmom

Thanks guys. I'll try to post a picture when I get them done.

12:15 pm

jaianniah

found a new puzzle site- it's called the Quiddler- heard of it?

Keeeen - the first number is the number of letters in the word. Second number is the point total.

12:26 pm

keeeen

prat

12:26 pm

jaianniah

5/12 means that the word has five letters that add up to six points x 2 cuz it's a five letter word....

MM - as spiderman says - with great power comes great responsibility.

NANCY

Tor, amen to that!!!! And all this stuff about being a meteorologist is so laughable...None of them are any better than I am at predicting the weather down her. It was comical to listen to them this am, saying that THEY were the station with the weatherperson who said that Ernesto was going to fizzle.....

2:01 pm

NANCY

I know, they are all a joke down here. Everyone feels the same way and we delight in making fun of them but honestly, how great is it that they are right approximately 20% of the time.

2:01 pm

Jillian, hello.

stidmama

MVA -- I have a computer program that has lots of languages, Cornish is one of them. Only a few phrases I am afraid, but wow is it interesting! I thought it would sound more like Welsh, but it's WAY different!

2:16 pm

MVA

it uses the same base, as did the breton language.

2:17 pm

MVA

i never learnt Cornish when in Cornwall, unlike in Wales where Welsh is compulsory up to 16 yrs

2:19 pm

stidmama

I think it's wonderful that Wales is helping keep its language alive... If only that were true in more places! I am intrigued by languages -- the similarities, the mutations between members of the same linguistic branches... just fun!

2:22 pm

MVA

Breton and Welsh are @live@ languages whilst the Cornish language died, but renewed interest brought it back, and the number os cornish speakers are increasing

2:22 pm

stidmama

did everyone dive into the grid?

2:22 pm

Charm

hey, stid - down to 39.

2:23 pm

stidmama

I have 95 to go... distracted by kids and dogs and lovely smells from the kitchen!

2:23 pm

torgone

I tried but conked my head on the monitor. Now I need a tr6/21 ..

2:24 pm

stidmama

I am glad they have enough information to bring it back, MVA. To many languages are lost to the imaginations of scholars only...

2:24 pm

stidmama

LOL tor! if you have a headache (and you're a caveman) from your diving, tor, you need to tr 6 your head!

2:25 pm

torgone

Well, I have been called a neanderthal ..

2:27 pm

pabtrek

Congrats to riemann

2:41 pm

katusha

congrats

2:42 pm

stidmama

glad you're here. Was wondering what sort of a wave a dot on a tire would make as it travels forward...

2:42 pm

MVA

wahoo riemann!!

2:42 pm

Lala7

katusha -- i think I already have the one you clued. it's the last one, right? I need the first 6/21.

2:42 pm

riemann

Any high school senior would know about their pr4/6.

2:42 pm

riemann

A spot on the tread of the tire would make a cycloid (assuming the tire isn't skidding).

2:43 pm

katusha

I know about the dance,.... I need the one after the one you push your baby in....

2:43 pm

stidmama

I remember my pr 4... the band was wearing leopard and tiger skins, and playing on elephant head drums...

2:43 pm

stidmama

thanks riemann, will tell the kid!

2:43 pm

riemann

Some airplanes still have pr4/6's instead of jets.

2:44 pm

Douglas

It's a busy life in Camelot [solo] I have to push the **** a lot.

2:44 pm

katusha

don't have the first one yet, sorry!

2:44 pm

Douglas

phantom alpine

2:45 pm

stidmama

LOL Douglas!

2:45 pm

riemann

There's a different name for the curve traced by a spot on (interior) of the wheel.

2:45 pm

stidmama

oh! Figures, those mathematicians with too much time on their hands!
