2:58 am

FMitch

I found it very slow to start but once you get into where the letters are it flowed and then I had to hit the list with 15 left.

soldier - you can use Lickety's list for free - see link at bottom of the page.

2:59 am

Haz1558

Oh pay up - it's well worth it for the stats. But you can access the second letter lists for free! look below under friends of babble. Either click on lickety's babble clues, or go through Babbler's Anonymous/general/stats.

4:41 am

Babblephish

4:42 am

MJbikes

4:42 am

FranMag

4:42 am

Angb

My first one is to give away

4:42 am

Babblephish

like the pe... less the p... add a vowel at the end

4:42 am

FranMag

ce + feline minus the last letter

4:43 am

MJbikes

4:43 am

Angb

That's the one ... ta

4:43 am

FranMag

4:43 am

FranMag

4:43 am

Babblephish

my clue was for the ec4/6

4:44 am

FranMag

oh, i was comparing my es to angb's babblephish, i had it already...thanks!

4:44 am

MJbikes

phish, thanks as well ( had it too).

4:44 am

Babblephish

oh good

4:45 am

FranMag

angb, the middle e's all have to do with your sight organs

4:45 am

Atalante

I think there are more French words in here than English ones

4:45 am

Babblephish

I'm fading fast... *yawn*

4:45 am

FranMag

last ey4/6 is an anagram of the other ey4/6

4:46 am

Babblephish

gotta catch some zzzzz before I have to get up soon. night night all

4:46 am

MJbikes

thanks Fran...that's the one I was missing

4:47 am

FranMag

yw MJ

4:48 am

Angb

An anagram mixes up letters. If I keep the first two the same, then I can only change the last two. Doesn't work. Or should i also go to sleep?

4:49 am

FranMag

you need another ey4/6 angb, it's an old plural of the sight organ

4:49 am

Angb

That could be the reason, I thought my sanity had slipped. It's an awful feeling.

4:50 am

FranMag

trust me, i know that feeling ang!

4:50 am

Angb

Fran - I swear I had tried that word ... many times. Thnx

4:53 am

Atalante

The C isn't, Fran! None are *really* weird

4:53 am

Angb

Hi Atalante

FranMag

ooh, MJ, tell me what C i'm missing, i have cax1, cex4, chx2 and cyx1

4:54 am

Atalante

MJbikes

MJbikes

5:22 am

Angb

Eva

hi gramma

6:10 am

Babbledude

hmm thanks guys hard one then

6:10 am

6:10 am

gramma

Howdy, Eva! How's the foliage going over the mountain?

6:11 am

gramma

Babbledude, it's not bad at all. I have 4 left to find.

6:12 am

pida 1

Good morning, everyone. How's the grid?

6:12 am

Eva

much better than last year gramma. But the Montpelier area, though beautiful, isn't quite as dramatic as the Northeast Kingdom, or around Craftsbury or some other places. How is it around you?

6:12 am

gramma

It's a sweet little thing

6:12 am

Babbledude

You must be a trained pro gramma cant see a thing

6:12 am

Haz1558

I think it's difficult...

6:13 am

Eva

I've been stuck at 17 for quite a while now

6:13 am

Eva

17 to that is

6:14 am

Eva

and I can't type this morning.

6:14 am

gramma

Sorry, Eva. I was actually responding to pida 1. Anyway...the foliage here is brilliant in the swamps. The rest is just hinting at it's future beauty.

6:15 am

pida 1

Guess I'd better get started, Haz. If you think it's difficult, it probably is.

6:15 am

Haz1558

But then I was particularly slow this morning! The words are there, they just take winkling out.

6:18 am

Ragalla

6:24 am

Ragalla

right 10 to go and i'm looking for clues...first up dy5/16?

6:24 am

lynxxx

6:25 am

pida 1

Hi lynxx, and everyone else I missed. My computor decided to go to sleep, for five minutes.

6:25 am

Haz1558

6:26 am

Ragalla

6:27 am

Haz1558

en5/14 means to invest with a gift. One letter short of 'to last'

6:27 am

Scrabbler

Good morning Babblers. Another small grid--how is it?

6:28 am

ch1212

lynxxx I just googled your badger mushroom video -- it is funny!

6:28 am

Haz1558

fi5/20 is document/record related. It usually has a 'tiny' word in front of it.

6:29 am

Ragalla

i googled the badger mushroom video but had to turn it off sharpish as i am at work and it is loud. will have to check it out at home later

6:29 am

Haz1558

Good morning Scrabbler! Some new words in the grid - I think it's a bit twisty.

6:35 am

Scrabbler

Don't try that J word I typed there in the wrong place

6:35 am

Ragalla

je4/9 is a ballet term and sounds a bit like a boat landing place

6:36 am

ampersand

can someone help me out with the ad 6/27?

6:36 am

Ragalla

ju 4/11 is french for skirt

6:36 am

Haz1558

ju4/11 is the other one. Sounds like someone has been fooled.

6:36 am

Ragalla

a+de4/7+consonant

6:37 am

pida 1

Hey ampersand. Is your icon a self-portrait?

dpomfr

Ragalla

6:39 am

pida 1

It's cute, anyway

6:40 am

Ragalla

only 2 to go now and they are the y's can anyone help?

6:42 am

Haz1558

6:43 am

Ragalla

6:43 am

Haz1558

Congratulations on finishing!

6:44 am

Scrabbler

ch1212

yes, we made a conscious decision to give away our the bulk of our furniture, appliances and household stuff to charity, and travel light in just the two cars. We have books and extra clothing and stuff being shipped. We also rented a storage unit in Idaho to hold other family/personal stuff for a few years until we know if we're staying here or moving overseas.

7:22 am

bunnyvicious

I have to get the kiddos ready for a dentist appnt. Oh, faerie, i really am going to start a blog with the house pics, but I cannot find my connector cable for my camera after the move. Gonna have to go pick up another, because all my boxes are unpacked. Drives me crazy how things dissapear when you pack and unpack!

7:23 am

pida 1

Yay!!!! WTG bunny!!!

7:24 am

ch1212

7:25 am

7:26 am

ch1212

We moved 2500 miles. How far are you going, faeriekae?

7:26 am

bunnyvicious

In fact, I built me my very own fish pond, since I have to sit outside and smoke...wish I could show you a picture, lol.

7:26 am

faeriekae

Bunny if you move 10 miles or 1000 miles it is still hard and I do understand the feeling of living out of a box

7:26 am

faeriekae

Ch I'm moving 525 miles

7:27 am

bunnyvicious

2500 mile? Sheesh (I could never move that far away from my Mommy).

7:27 am

7:28 am

faeriekae

7:38 am

abe79

my fiancee is the world's worst packer/ unpacker/ labeler, so its up to me to keep track of stuff, lol. wow, that's a lot of crates!

7:40 am

ch1212

that's a great idea, faeriekae. This move I just scribbled on the lids, but one move (now infamous in my family) I actually inventoried every box's contents onto the computer and alphabetized and cross-numbered... definitely a little too compulsive an organizer! :)

7:40 am

faeriekae

and I have 25 more sitting in the basement ready to be filled

7:41 am

abe79

but unpacking must have been a dream, Ch! Faerie, if i could, i would leave work right now and help you

7:41 am

inge

Ok all you babble movers, I finished while you moved. :):):):) Some of our books from moving 12 years ago never got unpacked!!!!

7:41 am

faeriekae

ch I simply used tape on the crates and put Kitchen, Bathroom, Master Bedroom, Guest Bedroom, etc.... your idea is much better

7:41 am

faeriekae

Abe I understand and I would help you also

faeriekae

*pours CJ coffee with a splash of milk* :-[}

8:22 am

8:22 am

Anniebrook

oh chj, I also knew it wasnt you, I was only funnin'

8:22 am

chj

but im putting a digital camera on my christmas wish list

8:23 am

faeriekae

8:26 am

faeriekae

nope not underwater it is a Nikon

8:26 am

cauzneffct

hy 6/27?

8:26 am

chj

hy + rose p****s

8:27 am

faeriekae

but I went Canoeing with friends a couple years ago and gave it to a fellow canoer to take pics and will trying to do they tipped over and it still works

8:27 am

chj

or hy + heavy m**** music

8:28 am

chj

nice..where were you canoeing...i may be going myself by the delaware water gap near the corner of nj and pa

8:28 am

chj

a friend has a cabin in northwestern nj

8:30 am

faeriekae

CJ I was in river in the Western part of MI - Ludington. I love canoeing

8:30 am

chj

we used to use canoes, but now i prefer a kayak...they are faster and more maneuverable

8:31 am

faeriekae

Just got a call from a friend she is bring me breakfast on her way to the doctor.....she is having a hip replacement so she isn't able to help me pack but she is very thoughtful

8:31 am

chj

actually the ones they rent are these plactic kayaks where you are just sitting on top....and you get soaked when you go thru the rapids

8:32 am

faeriekae

I've never tried Kayaking but it does look like fun and I will do it some time

8:33 am

chj

good coffee, faerie

8:33 am

faeriekae

CJ I have a friend who has a skull and that also looks like fun but it also appears that you could get wet realllly easy

8:33 am

faeriekae

Thanks :)

8:35 am

chj

they are very tippy...the first time i got in one, i mistakenly dipped my shoulder to paddle like i would in a canoe and went right over...you have to keep your shoulders level when you paddle

8:36 am

faeriekae

I don't think I spelled that correctly but yes they are water level and you do have to paddle but looks like really good exercise

8:36 am

Ankhorite

Faerie... a scull? Or... (getting Halloween pictures in my head!)

8:37 am

faeriekae

Ank yes scull LOL

8:38 am

faeriekae

Maybe I should stay out of the scull sounds like more work and concentration than I might want to use. I like to relax while on the water

8:39 am

Ankhorite

:) te*** -- the one that isn't a color or a duck?

8:39 am

cauzneffct

8:42 am

pida 1

cauz, minds working the same wavelength? Morning

8:42 am

Ankhorite

Txs pida also

8:43 am

cauzneffct

yeah, i noticed that. Babble = weird

8:44 am

Ankhorite

really weird... I wish Dr. God had adopted the SOWPODS list instead of whatever this master list is. Too many weird, weird things on here, and too many things which are not -- like "perp," for example.

8:45 am

faeriekae

I'll 2nd that Ank

8:46 am

faeriekae

Good morning stidmama!

9:08 am

stidmama

morning Haz, how's life on the green isle today?

9:09 am

Anniebrook

hi Stidmama, how are you today?

9:09 am

Haz1558

It's fine thanks - our neighbours have just resown their lawn, it's had its first cut and you have never seen such green grass!

9:09 am

stidmama

I am well. Grant has a sore throat and low-grade fever, so I will keep him home. Good thing it's a small grid!

9:10 am

Haz1558

Small but with obstacles....

9:10 am

Anniebrook

Hope Grant is better soon....yes, there obstacles here today in the grid

9:10 am

harpjane

ehllo

9:10 am

chj

shouldnt fichy be a word...as something smells fichy around here

9:11 am

harpjane

oops, hello. (coffee...must have coffee.....)

9:11 am

stidmama

oh, that first mowing is so much fun. but in a mature lawn I like clovers and little (we call them english daisies) bellis perennis (ours are white with little pink edges) and a few dandelions...

9:11 am

Anniebrook

hi jane

9:11 am

Ankhorite

*envies Haz' neighbor's grass* Our is... well, mostly not grass.

9:11 am

stidmama

hi harpjane. :-) me too. only it's tea today... brb

9:12 am

pida 1

hi jane, just made a fresh pot, have some

9:12 am

Haz1558

The only problem with the grass is going to come when their two sons resume playing ball-games!

9:13 am

Ankhorite

Well, we've had ours resown last spring, but I think that it was too close (4 weeks) to the herbicide... usually we don't use chemicals, and we won't again.

9:14 am

stidmama

two boys, two dogs -- I no longer care too much about our lawns, and will be pulling up some of the front to reseed with more wildflowers next spring... just easier and I think more attractive as well as better for the environment.

9:15 am

stidmama

why doesn't it recognize "alcyd?"

9:15 am

harpjane

we don't have a decent lawn. that's next year's project. this year is to fix the sidewalks and water lines, and take out a tree. All things that will make the lawn even worse...

9:16 am

Ankhorite

Doesn't recognize "tech" either, Stid.

9:16 am

Ankhorite

Harp, in six years, utilities have lifted our lawn four times.

9:16 am

stidmama

grumble grumble

9:17 am

stidmama

LOL Ankh! sounds like it's time to plant some spiky shrubbery... rosa rugosa, some nice himalayan blackberries, firethorn...

9:17 am

Haz1558

Lawns are a great source of pride around here - lots of people who want theirs to look like bowling greens. We're not quite that bad, but red thread disease was a bit of a crisis in our house...

9:17 am

harpjane

we are sort of thinking about xeriscaping, so we won't need much water. but I LOVE the green lawns and lots of flowers...

9:17 am

harpjane

this grid is hard

9:18 am

Haz1558

You'll need to explain xeriscaping, and yes, the grid IS hard.

9:18 am

stidmama

Yes, same in our neck of the woods, Haz! but we just politely ignore the others and go on our merry way. Besides, with all the fruit trees and the fence that will soon block the veggie garden the little bit of green left on the ground in front is barely noticeable.

9:19 am

stidmama

xeriscaping is planting things that don't mind a drought *sob* I lost several plants this year...

9:19 am

Haz1558

Ah - it would never take off in Ireland!

9:20 am

Haz1558

Being a xeriscapist in Ireland would be a shortcut to bankruptcy.

9:20 am

Ankhorite

Pab, I need ad6/7 also

9:23 am

chj

Hey, Jude, don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better

9:23 am

Haz1558

Achill is beautiful - I've been there in the summer time when the wind was brisk but it didn't rain.

9:24 am

Ankhorite

*dated an Achill-American boy for 17 years*

9:24 am

chj

achoo

9:25 am

chj

achoo, i've got achill

9:25 am

Ankhorite

Txs, chj... now, about that ad6,7?

9:25 am

stidmama

I would have thought the same for our area, Haz, but unfortunately with the climate changing (and yes, it's noticeable over time here) the plants that used to thrive in our mostly moist climate are now just getting by unless they are very well established.

9:25 am

pabtrek

just monkeytyped it Ankhorite it means The univalent radical C5H4N5 in adenine. and uses a big point letter

9:25 am

Haz1558

It's pronounced with a hard ch rather than a soft ch.

9:26 am

Okay, time to be a mama for an hour. Back later!

9:34 am

Haz1558

la5/16 - like the la4/7 but with an extra vowel.

9:35 am

Ankhorite

Raelite -- la5,16 is a variant of la4,7

9:35 am

raelite

9:35 am

chj

Babbler

GOTTA LOVE DRUNK PEOPLE

A man and his wife are awakened, at 3 o'clock in the morning by a loud pounding on the door. The man gets up and goes to the door where a drunken stranger,
Standing in the pouring rain, is asking for a push.

"Not a chance," says the husband, "it is 3 o'clock in the morning!"

He slams the door and returns to bed.

"Who was that?" asked his wife.
"Just some drunk guy asking for a push," he answers.

"Did you help him?" she asks.

"No, I did not, it is 3 o'clock in the morning and it is pouring out there!"

"Well, you have a short memory," says his wife. "Can't you remember, about three months ago when we broke down, and those two guys helped us? I think you should help him, and you should be ashamed of yourself!"

The man does as he is told, gets dressed, and goes out into the pounding rain.

He calls out into the dark, "Hello, are you still there?"

"Yes" comes back the answer.

"Do you still need a push?", calls out the husband.

"Yes, please!" comes the reply from the dark.

"Where are you?" asks the husband.

"Over here on the swings!", replies the drunk.

4:23 pm

torgone

I guess I do need to look somewhere besides the catalogs . . .

4:23 pm

Douglas

It is kind of a thin line between a folksy aw-shucks self-deprecating humor and a false humility, torgone, God had a wonderful plan when he made you the way you are, yada yada yada...

4:23 pm

featherbee

who knows. could also be random luck. maybe the next 5 years i'll get more girls.

4:24 pm

Jen34

for us, it's a school-wide phenomenon, just this year

4:24 pm

Douglas

Is it sacreligious to say yada yada yada when talking about things like that?

4:24 pm

Jen34

torgone, I "found" Tom the day I had decided men weren't worth the energy and anguish. Sometimes, maybe, all you need to do is decide to be happy with who you are - and then you will attract people who are happy with you the way you are!

4:30 pm

Tiny

dynel

4:30 pm

Douglas

I mean, a gram isn't very much weight, and accelerating it by one centimeter per second each second doesn't take a lot of force.

7:28 pm

Natasha

thanks stid--another doh moment!

7:28 pm

helenkeller

7:29 pm

tinks

hi helen

7:29 pm

stidmama

hi helen!

7:29 pm

chj

[[[[[[[[[[[[[[hk]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]

7:29 pm

stidmama

7:29 pm

helenkeller

LOL - such a warm greeting :))

7:30 pm

tinks

Which is TheFiz and which is stidmatt?

7:30 pm

stidmama

stidmatt is the one being hugged by stidmama! :-)

7:30 pm

tinks

aawwhhh!

7:30 pm

stidmama

ThFiz is the cutie who is over ten years younger than the matronly type...

7:31 pm

stidmama

oh -- stidmatt is not smiling, he didn't want to show off his braces.

7:31 pm

stidmama

I wish you could actually see the gorgeous sweater TheFiz was wearing -- abalone buttons and all, she knitted it herself!

7:32 pm

tinks

Heehee- you so cannot say matronly about yourself - I'm a year older and so do not consider myself like that!!!

7:32 pm

stidmama

Well -- when I looked at the picture, I realized that my "figger" is matronly. not an age-related comment at all. :-)

7:32 pm

Nef

any help with the last 2 words. please?

7:32 pm

stidmama

last two which words, Nef?

7:32 pm

tinks

We obviously need another pic - to show the details

7:32 pm

chj

i wish i could post a pic of myself but my image doesn't appear in mirrirs or show up in photographs

7:32 pm

Nef

ey's I guess

7:33 pm

tinks

nef - last 2 are?

7:33 pm

stidmama

LOL chj! There are two EY 4/6 -- one is past tense look word

7:33 pm

tinks

if someone lokked at something they ey** it

7:33 pm

chj

stid...you're a cutie...don't be so modest

7:33 pm

stidmama

7:33 pm

tinks

*looked

7:34 pm

stidmama

*blush* thanks chj! good thing tom isn't here to be jealous...

7:34 pm

helenkeller

grrrr phone

7:34 pm

tinks

damn - got the one before the last 2

7:34 pm

stidmama

Nef -- my initial comment was misleading. It's an old-fashioned (medieval) word meaning the things that do the looking (or lokking)

7:36 pm

tinks

When you bet it can be odds or e***s - - replace 2nd letter

7:36 pm

tinks

with the sometimes vowel

7:37 pm

featherbee

back, let's see if i can do these last 44

7:37 pm

stidmama

7:37 pm

faeriekae

cause I've never heard of naming food LOL

8:37 pm

stidmama

8:39 pm

jillibus

Lucky is lucky to have you, stid. Guess you've checked his paws? I still have a huge splintery chunk of wood one of our Danes had embedded in a foot - he just limped a little, brave guy, never complained. It's a fond souvenir of his nobility.

8:43 pm

lbdawger

I had a friend who raised danes. Those dogs used the scare the !!! out of anyone who came up to the yard. Of course most of them would just slobber you to death.

8:44 pm

otisbdriftwood

8:44 pm

stidmama
