Nazareth, your favorite son
Should have stayed a great unknown
Like his father carving wood
He'd have made good,
Tables, chairs and ***** chests
Would have suited Jesus best
He'd have caused nobody harm
No one alarm!

just when i think i know all the K words, new ones are added! thanks to sprite, i know those two new porcelain ones.

4:00 am

mari

Thanks a million Fran - you're a sweetheart!!

4:00 am

FranMag

yw mari

4:00 am

sprite

I keep mental note of all K words I come across, both here and elsewhere. And still they bug me no end. Got them all now, thanks.

4:01 am

FranMag

yw sprite

4:02 am

FranMag

i sort of agree with lynxxx, i like when there are Ks and Zs because they are challenging, but 20 just seems like torture!

4:03 am

sprite

I am fine with Zs, even though it takes me ages to find them. Ks just give me a mental block. I see the grid, I see the K and CLANG, door goes shut :)

4:05 am

FranMag

one day you'll find the source of that block and you'll be totally unstoppable sprite! :-)

4:06 am

sprite

never, lol. It's the kind of block that grows stronger with each K grid - lots of confirmation that I am blind to even the 4 letter words.

4:06 am

FranMag

i was sure dayo would be a word....like in the song: dayo, dayo, daylight come and me wanna go home

4:07 am

sprite

hey mr carryman, carry me bananas....

4:07 am

sprite

or was it tellyman?

4:08 am

FranMag

i think it's tallyman, tally me bananas

4:08 am

Andree

mr tallyman?

4:08 am

sprite

yay! Learned the song as a kid, with no clue whatsoever on the language, words or meaning - am trying to sing it now and realise it is still phonetic memory, LOL.

4:09 am

Andree

i think amnio should be a word too

4:09 am

FranMag

great song...have you seen beetlejuice sprite?

4:09 am

FranMag

i know andree! i tried it too

4:09 am

sprite

I seem to remember amnion is.

Yes Fran :)

4:09 am

FranMag

ooh andree, change the last letter

4:10 am

FranMag

did you like it sprite? it seems like a movie you would enjoy

4:10 am

sprite

yes, it was funny

4:11 am

FranMag

i hope winona ryder makes more movies, i like her

4:11 am

ursh

Hello all - please clue the first ad7

4:12 am

4:13 am

ursh

I was looking for the things they take out with tonsils

4:13 am

FranMag

found my favorite tapeworms too, both spellings

4:14 am

FranMag

speaking of that ursh, i think my daughter's have to come out...she's only 22 months old!

4:14 am

FranMag

her pediatrician said her tonsils are the biggest he's ever seen and so did the specialist.

4:14 am

sprite

awwwwww that is sad :(
But the younger they are, the shorter they take to heal, that is a small consolation.

4:15 am

sprite

poor kid

4:15 am

FranMag

that's what we're hoping, we're taking her to a second ENT on Friday just to make sure.

4:15 am

ursh

Sorry fran - but if they are bad they seem to make them constantly ill

4:15 am

Andree

awful when she is just a baby, at least she won't see it coming

4:16 am

FranMag

she hasn't been sick much, but it affects her breathing at night

4:16 am

sprite

I was 9 and was on a ward with kids much younger than me. They cried and talked after the op, I couldn't make a sound for days. They said that was normal, because the others were so young.

4:17 am

FranMag

my husband had his out only 5 years ago! he was down for 3 weeks.

4:17 am

Andree

as men do fran, lol

4:18 am

FranMag

i'm sure she inherited the large tonsils from him

4:18 am

sprite

eeek, yes, must have been painful. And what Andree says, LOL.

4:18 am

FranMag

i know andree, they are so helpless sometimes, thankfully it was before i moved here, so his older sister was the one who waited on him hand and foot.

4:21 am

FranMag

i've stopped looking for words so i'm going to hit the other puzzles and get to bed now.

4:21 am

FranMag

good night andree and lynxxx! and good day sprite and ursh!

5:56 am

herinfernallady

hey scrabble

5:57 am

Scrabbler

About 15 min--then off to work from 8:30-6.

5:57 am

gramma

Scrabbler, try heroin, it could ease your pain

5:57 am

Wolvie

wow - are these on call days for you?

5:57 am

Wolvie

hi gramma

5:57 am

Scrabbler

I am starting with coffee--caffeine is the gateway drug.

5:58 am

gramma

Oh you're right start off easy and build up

5:58 am

Scrabbler

One of our partners is on vacation, so I am working extra hours. I was on call Monday, then again Friday and Sunday.

5:58 am

Wolvie

oh man - I have a friend who is a doc, and she has times where she is on call - very trying. But - you have a great profession. :-)

5:59 am

herinfernallady

i will not have coffee again at 10pm as i was up till 4am last night

5:59 am

Scrabbler

This month has been busier than feb--so many sick kids. The children's hospital is actually filled to capacity!

6:00 am

Wolvie

wow - I hope that changes

6:00 am

Scrabbler

Lady!! I never have coffee after even lunch, as my sleep gets messed up

6:00 am

cliffopa

hi everyone. another grid i will never finish.

6:01 am

Wolvie

hi cliff

6:01 am

caitlyn

Morning all..........

6:01 am

herinfernallady

hi cliff

6:01 am

gramma

There's a school here w/700 students and over 200 kids were out w/the flu.!

6:01 am

Scrabbler

Cliffopa---Mama Cat and kittens??? I have to look at your icon!

6:02 am

Wolvie

whoa gramma - big percentage

6:02 am

Wolvie

hi cait

6:02 am

cliffopa

momma kitty and babies all doing well here

6:02 am

Scrabbler

How adorable, cliffopa!!! They look grey. Did you witness the births? How is Mama?

6:02 am

lynxxx

Hi Cliff

6:02 am

gramma

I say, shut it down. Reopen in a few days or so.

6:02 am

Wolvie

good news cliff!

6:02 am

Scrabbler

***super excited**

6:03 am

Andree

hi caitlyn and cliff

6:04 am

Scrabbler

Gramma---yes, usually we see Flu in Jan-Feb, and after seeing no cases we thought the winter illness season would calm down this month, but Flu has hit!

6:04 am

cliffopa

scrabbler, i witnessed the birth! i've seen lots of other animals being born, but never kittens. mother cats have a horrible job - i didn't realize they instinctively eat the afterbirth of each kitten.

6:05 am

cliffopa

we have 1 all grey, 2 grey and white, 1 all black and 2 black and white.

6:05 am

caitlyn

Scrabbler we have had the flu around here,but now we have chickenpox..my smallest grandaughter (2 years) has had it quite badly

6:06 am

Wolvie

wow cait - hope they all get better soon

6:06 am

Wolvie

very cool cliff

6:06 am

Scrabbler

I am so glad you got to witness the miracle of the births. Yes, that mother-eating-afterbirth thing is gross, but a protective thing, I guess, to keep predators away.

6:07 am

caitlyn

Thanks wolvie..on the mend now!!

6:07 am

Wolvie

how can oaked not be a word?

6:07 am

Scrabbler

I saw a kid with chickenpox last Saturday, even though he had the vaccine (not 100% effective)

6:07 am

herinfernallady

cliff baby kitties are so cute

6:08 am

Scrabbler

Cliffopa--those kittens must be SO sweet to watch. I would just sit and stare at them all day.

6:08 am

Wolvie

bad news scrabbler. I hope he'll be okay

6:08 am

herinfernallady

Thank you Cliff for rescueing animals

6:08 am

Eva

good morning everyone. Good morning kittens

6:08 am

Scrabbler

Caitlyn, is the chicken pox vaccine used in Wales?

6:08 am

herinfernallady

Cliff i would never get any work done with those cute little kitties about

6:08 am

Wolvie

hi eva

6:08 am

caitlyn

Morning Eva

6:09 am

ursh

Cliffopa - gorgeous babies - as a foster mum to strays you must wish more people would sterilize their pets - we sure do here - so so many strays

6:09 am

Scrabbler

Chicken pox is much much milder in kids that have already been vaccinated

6:09 am

6a

hi eva

6:09 am

cliffopa

i must admit i took some 'maternity leave' from work to stay home and watch the babies. luckily all my co-workers understand my devotion/addiction to felines.

6:09 am

Wolvie

that's cool cliff

6:09 am

Wolvie

going to get coffee - brb

6:09 am

caitlyn

I dont think so scrabbler,just measles mumps and I cant remember the last one

6:09 am

Scrabbler

Good for you, cliffopa. This is a special experience

6:10 am

cliffopa

ursh - the shelter i volunteer for now has a reduced price clinic so anyone can afford to have their pets spayed or neutered.

6:10 am

Scrabbler

Caitlyn, the chicken pox vaccine was started here in the US in 1995

6:10 am

Andree

brain dead now , will leave last 42 until tomorrow, happy babbling all

6:11 am

Scrabbler

6:13 am

ch1212

6:13 am

Scrabbler

Yes, cliffopa, vaccines were a huge development in the last century---so many previous childhood diseases are almost nonexistent now

6:14 am

caitlyn

I found it ok until the last 80+

6:14 am

herinfernallady

i call her itty betty though

6:14 am

cliffopa

i like itty betty better. i have a little one that was the runt of a litter i raised last fall. we named him peanut!

6:15 am

herinfernallady

Nor peanut thats cute

6:15 am

ursh

My new g/daughter was admitted to hospital on Tues with suspected meningitis - which fortunately tested negative - now waiting for cultures - sure to be some unidentified virus that went for the brain - she is recovering quite well and hopefully no after effects

6:15 am

Scrabbler

Ch, my Babble Self-ESteem just plummeted. I have been here for about 30 min and have 28 words. I am chatting a lot, and I can't type without looking at the keyboard

6:15 am

herinfernallady

6:16 am

caitlyn

Thats horrible for you all ursh..hope she is better soon

6:16 am

Scrabbler

Ursh---very scary, but I am relieved she does not have bacterial meningitis as that is very serious

6:16 am

ch1212

oh scrabbler, we all have days when words just jump out and days when they don't... and chatting is far more productive on some days ! :)

6:16 am

Wolvie

scrabbler - chatting does that to a person. ;-)

6:16 am

Scrabbler

But I am also not "seeing" words today

6:17 am

Wolvie

like ch said -we all have days like that. some of us, like me, have them frequently. ;-)

6:17 am

caitlyn

lol wolvie

6:17 am

herinfernallady

im pised that i was enjoying my program and then the boys house mate comes home and makes inane comments

6:18 am

cliffopa

i'm only averaging about 1 word per minute

6:18 am

Wolvie

6:20 am

Wolvie

LOL - tell us how you really feel fern.

6:21 am

caitlyn

OK I am going to put this to the vote...Should I start painting the woodwork or stay in babbleland??

6:21 am

cliffopa

babble land. large concentration of wonderful, supportive people in babble land. real world they are much more widely dispersed.

6:21 am

Scrabbler

You need to lower your expectations for those guys, lady, then life will be easier.

6:21 am

Wolvie

I vote babble

6:21 am

herinfernallady

6:21 am

Scrabbler

Ding, ding, ding! Right answer, cliffopa!

6:22 am

Scrabbler

6:23 am

caitlyn

So babble has won...painting can wait until tomorrow

6:24 am

Wolvie

6:24 am

Scrabbler

OK, Caitlyn, yippee!

6:25 am

Scrabbler

Kateq

9:08 am

EvaNadine

any words longer than 6 letters??
hehe

9:08 am

hurshy

those type of songs are terrible. the boys here listen to lyrics like that, watch things that portray women's desires most unrealistically, and develop such a warped sense of how they are supposed to view and relate to women.

9:09 am

steph606

have you got time to give 139 clues? LOL

9:09 am

72 Temple Owl

lol steph! - bbl

9:09 am

EvaNadine

i agree hurshy -- but really, with this song, theres no WAY anyone could take it seriously....
lets just say thats the only line i could even quote in the log..heh

9:10 am

Wolvie

ik i plus kittie - singular

9:10 am

hurshy

actually, i'm afraid teenage boys do take them seriously - esp ones without strong parental influence. they just don't know any better.

9:10 am

Wolvie

evan and steph - lol - too many of those

9:10 am

72 Temple Owl

evaN: people are basically stupid. There are people who take that seriously.

9:10 am

Kateq

TY!

9:10 am

Wolvie

katie - did you see the ik clue?

9:10 am

Wolvie

great. :-)

9:11 am

72 Temple Owl

*zips it* i'll be back

9:11 am

EvaNadine

yeah, unfortunately, there are people who will take anything seriously + ruin it for everyone else...

9:11 am

"for the first forty days, the sea was so angry
a thousand dea dsailors walking aboud, calling
'come and lay in our seabed so pretty
we'll make love in the undertow'"

9:14 am

steph606

ooh, thats saucy

9:16 am

EvaNadine

"on the girls sailed, and surely found nothing
except for how empty the ocean can be.
jenny once swore she saw captain neptune
who just smiled, and swam away -- with that she had all she could take.

so jenny dove in one drab sunday morning
and followed a sailor down to her grave.
nico sat silent and empty-handed
and the bow fell under the wave."

9:16 am

steph606

I'm off going for a bath, someone gave me perfume as a preasent and I put it on today and I keep getting a whiff and its disgusting, lol!!! bye all

9:17 am

hurshy

*note to self: don't give steph perfume*

9:17 am

EvaNadine

"pretty little girl you fight to be ugly
wearing your face like the black of your soul.
it stuck in your heel like a message in your bottle
set free when you smashed on the shore..."

9:17 am

steph606

its okay, if its nice perfume!

9:17 am

hurshy

but that is a subjective question

9:18 am

EvaNadine

"lo, nico climbed the mast to the lookout
to pretend i have wings from a birds point of view.
if i cant find s fish or a ship or a lighthouse
then ill search for a different view -- there must be a different view"

9:18 am

Kateq

anyone have the ir 6?

9:18 am

steph606

Could do with a different view of this blooming grid!!!

9:19 am

EvaNadine

"but a wave caught the ship and knocked nico off balance
and she laughed as she fell to the sea
cause a mark caught her eye and she reached for her ankle and thought
'my god, that color is me'"

9:20 am

EvaNadine

"nico you searched for so long and found nothing
but i see maybe it was better to drown
cause you sure found yourself on the way to the water
and you smiled the whole way down.

she smiled the whole way down."

9:20 am

hurshy

IR6... gosh, without a second R, i'm puzzled.

9:20 am

EvaNadine

9:22 am

Kateq

9:22 am

EvaNadine

EvaNadine

nice, just need 2 of those now :)

10:11 am

ARB

there are 4 ol's

10:11 am

EvaNadine

i have OL4 ending in the first vowel and OL4 ending in a snake

10:11 am

hurshy

i have an ol5/10 as well as those

10:12 am

ARB

There is a 4 letter version of the 5.

10:12 am

hurshy

ohhhh, thanks!

10:12 am

EvaNadine

stick an E on the end of the 5

10:12 am

hurshy

oh a SIX

10:13 am

hurshy

lol, i put olin and it didn't go and i went, uh-oh, what now?

10:13 am

ARB

I meant the other way -- make a 6 out of the 5

10:13 am

Alleyn

Those re words are impossible. Have only found four

10:14 am

hurshy

i'm thinking i might need some more M7, i have just one MA7, more masculine

10:15 am

hurshy

ooh, yup, there's a pl, mo7

10:15 am

periwinkle

HI everyone

10:15 am

ARB

There is another ma 7 -- compound word

10:15 am

periwinkle

hurshy, how did your interveiw go yesterday

10:15 am

hurshy

hi peri, reiki is in the grid but is proper and doesn't count

10:15 am

swa20

why is mank not there... as in uh thats mank

10:15 am

hurshy

oh, well... it was ... different from boston, that's for sure

10:15 am

periwinkle

so it is hadn't noticed

10:16 am

hurshy

i ended up feeling like i was the one interviewing her

10:16 am

periwinkle

really?

10:16 am

hurshy

i was a couple minutes late, but she was later than i was.

10:16 am

periwinkle

are you the least bit interested in the position?

10:16 am

hurshy

she had no idea how much she would pay

10:17 am

hurshy

i can understand not putting it in the ad, a lot of people don't - it is irritating, but whatever - but when you are interviewing someone, i would think you would have SOME idea...

10:17 am

periwinkle

yes I agree, she should have given you some idea

10:17 am

hurshy

i don't think i am interested. i would be alone most of the time (except for you guys...), and she smokes so the office smells all smoky.

10:18 am

hurshy

basically it seemed like she would want to hire me if i wanted the job

10:18 am

periwinkle

oh, I wouldn't lke being alone most of the time and the smoke smell would really get to me

10:18 am

hurshy

but i told her i was just starting my job search, and was kind of hoping to work with people a bit more...

10:19 am

hurshy

yeah - the smoke thing is kind of the kicker, i think. one can put up with a lot, but not that.

10:19 am

ConXshun

smoking is now prohibited on the work floor here in NL. In UK from july there's no smoking in ANY public place - not even restaurants... I think its great!

10:20 am

ARB

Hurshy, Where are you looking? What are you looking for?

10:20 am

periwinkle

Boy I am really glad that I don't smoke

10:20 am

Jadeomoan

howdy TO, all!

10:20 am

ConXshun

lol - yes!

10:20 am

hurshy

i am looking... well, around where i live, and over towards hartford... i will be able to focus the search a little more in another week or two...

10:20 am

ConXshun

hello jade

ConXshun

sorry - wrong box.... !! ;)

10:21 am

Jadeomoan

hey there ConXshun

10:21 am

hurshy

and i'm looking for (ideally) a medium-small company that needs a person who will combine receptionist and administrative assistant roles, where i will have a variety of tasks and be kept fairly busy, half working with people and half on my own. ish.

10:22 am

hurshy

that pays enough for me to support myself.

10:23 am

ARB

Are you deliberately not interested in continuing in a school ?

10:24 am

ARB

Probably your 2nd comment answers my question.

10:24 am

hurshy

well, i would not mind working in a school, and i am definitely going to continue evening tutoring, but i am looking for a different type of thing to do - something where i can interact with adults more.

10:24 am

Judi

Stay away from law firms, Hurshy. *shudder*

10:24 am

hurshy

why, what is wrong with law firms?

10:25 am

ARB

sounds like the voice of experience, Judi

10:25 am

Judi

You do not want to be on the bottom of the food chain, at the beck and call of egomaniacal, get it done yesterday types.

10:25 am

hurshy

i dunno, it could be kind of fun - the challenge of trying to impress that sort of erson

10:25 am

EvaNadine

in that case, dont work for the government either!
he

10:26 am

Judi

Yes, I do speak from experience. And I was not even on the bottom of the food chain like our poor receptionist was.

10:26 am

hurshy

well, i have applied for a job with the town of avon - i would kind of like to get that one, i think.

10:27 am

hurshy

i spose you can find egomanical types in a lot of fields...

10:27 am

ARB

Should we say prayers?

10:27 am

hurshy

i would love prayers :)

10:27 am

hurshy

and a clue for this compound ma7

10:27 am

Judi

There again, Hurshy, I can speak from experience. I currently work for a municipality (in the Police Department). It has it's ups and downs, depending mostly on the whims of various elected officials. But, all in all, it's a nice gig. I've been at it 10 years now.

10:28 am

hurshy

i think you told me some about the police dept before, judi, i remember saying it sounded cool...

10:28 am

EvaNadine

not female + opposite of hate

10:28 am

hurshy

ohhhhhhhhhhhh

10:28 am

hurshy

manrise didn't work

10:28 am

10:29 am

11:19 am

ConXshun

you could start with a 3 month try-out period...???

11:19 am

hurshy

the lady i met with yesterday said she'd like to know within a month, so, that's plenty of time

11:19 am

hurshy

yes, i suppose many jobs have trial periods these days

11:19 am

ConXshun

or just start somewhere - and if you don't like it, you can always change....

11:20 am

hurshy

but i don't like to be rude...

11:21 am

ConXshun

that's not rude! it's doing what's good for you - and that's best for everybody in the long run...

Hot Ham Water

does anyone have the ka 6/30 yet?

11:21 am

hurshy

oh, hey, i just noticed that they asked for salary requirements and that i therefore said that in my email to them and so if they called me, hopefully that means my salary request is not unreasonable.

11:21 am

hurshy

ka6 reminds me of the guy that sort of lived with OJ simpson

11:21 am

ConXshun

ka6 rhymes with japanese buddhist monks

11:22 am

Hot Ham Water

i dont know a word for japanese buddhist monks

11:22 am

ConXshun

if a salary request seems reasonable to you hurshy, then you're worth it... and you can tell them that.

11:25 am

Hot Ham Water

11:27 am

hurshy

does a babble addiction count as a disability?

11:27 am

ConXshun

well done flosey!

11:28 am

ConXshun

it must do hurshy - but you can say that it inspires and stimulates the brain - so it's very necessary

11:28 am

DRWED

If babble disrupts your life or makes it difficult or impossible to do your job or interferes with critical aspects of you life, then it is a disability

11:29 am

hurshy

sounds like that could be true for a lot of folks here...

11:29 am

ConXshun

so we're pretty much all babble disabilitated?

11:29 am

DRWED

thus, anything can be a disability. The danger is excess

11:29 am

pabtrek

congrats flosey

11:29 am

flosey

hey, I'd agree with that

11:29 am

hurshy

anyone think they might be able to help me find two lower D words?

11:30 am

ConXshun

like babble

11:30 am

DRWED

If you, for example, had to choose between babble and your spouse, and you hesitate before giving an answer, then it is debilitating

11:30 am

flosey

I'll try hurshy

11:30 am

ConXshun

oded

11:35 am

hurshy

that is funny

11:35 am

hurshy

um, one D is lower than the other, in the grid

11:35 am

DRWED

Actually, that was on purpose....yeah, that's the ticket

11:37 am

hurshy

so, the D i miss is probably not DE or DI, because it would be practically impossible to make one of those that couldn't come from the top

ADHDWordLover

i came up with an idea.

12:16 pm

caitlyn

Whats that ADHD?

12:18 pm

ADHDWordLover

i opened lickety's (but not as a new tab, so it's independent of the babble window). I closed it in so only the "add Word" part shows. so every time I get a word in the grid, it type it in the lickety's box, without viewing the list. then when i'm ready for the list, the words are already there!

12:19 pm

EvaNadine

thats a good idea. :)

12:19 pm

caitlyn

I cant do clever things like that on a computer LOL

12:20 pm

ADHDWordLover

tx. it works really well when there's a monster list, so you don't have to take so much time putting in the words on lickety's

12:20 pm

ADHDWordLover

sure you can caitlyn. r u using firefox or IE?

12:20 pm

bleurch ie blows

Haz1558

Yes, you're wrong to imply. She is disabled.

12:56 pm

caitlyn

I dont think she is very old ADHD

12:57 pm

Atalante

12:57 pm

inge

gee, Atalanta, now I feel ancient

12:57 pm

caitlyn

In that case Im ancient

12:57 pm

ADHDWordLover

i didn't see the entire chat about her, so i didn't know she was disabled.

to make the numbers go down on lickety's you must enter the word in the add word box, so the word gets entered in it's place and gets a green check. otherwise, the numbers won't go down unless you click the on/off circles. also, if you've entered words and checked them off yourself in their appropriate spot, just hit enter after you do and the cursor jumps up to the Add Word box and the numbers will "jump" down by the amount of new words you've entered.

when you sold the stocks, if you made a profit, that was taxable on schedule D. That can be offset by losses from your business, tho. You probably need to go to one of the tax offices and have them do your return. And boy, do I hate to recommend any of them

10:17 pm

jmcantrell

oh, names count?

10:17 pm

stidmama

three...

10:17 pm

pida 1

only if they have another meaning....

10:17 pm

Douglas

No, but if you remove the last letter, you get something that is in the grid...

10:17 pm

stidmama

no proper nouns don't count but often a name is also used generically... like "erica" which is the plant family that heathers and rhododendrons belong to.

10:18 pm

stidmama

pida, the RO 6 is another one... *sigh*

10:18 pm

jmcantrell

ahhh... got it... i think ;)

10:18 pm

stidmama

and it's my last one *sob*

10:18 pm

pida 1

and the one tonight, el***, is a type of olive oil

10:19 pm

pida 1

stid, a type of rat.

10:19 pm

jmcantrell

no kramer or newman?

10:19 pm

Minveryork

Not necessarily Jim. Most names do not count, but it will accept Agee, as in James Agee,but it isn't in grid tonight.Sometimes the grid will accept words you do not think the grid will accept&sometimes it does not accept words you think it will take. You never know!

10:19 pm

ADHDWordLover

dozed off and i'm awake to hopefully finish

10:19 pm

stidmama

10:19 pm

NonnieLight

10:20 pm

NonnieLight

10:20 pm

stidmama

I hate when the last one is SO obvious! {{{pida}}} you're terrific!

10:20 pm

Douglas

Don't get us started on the wierdness of the Babble dictionary...oops, too late!

10:20 pm

pida 1

YAY !!!!!!!!!stid, and I'm off to bed

10:20 pm

Minveryork

Congratulations stidmama on fireworks!Good for you

10:20 pm

stidmama

and sometimes a latin word counts, and sometimes it doesn't, etc etc etc

10:20 pm

stidmama

sweet dreams pida!

10:20 pm

ADHDWordLover

79 babbles words left to find, 79 babble words. If one of those words, I should guess, 78 babble words left to find. ohhhhh 78 babble words

10:20 pm

jmcantrell

fish and fireworks?

10:21 pm

Minveryork

Goodbye pida 1! I'll see you tomorrow in the chat log!

10:21 pm

NonnieLight

goodnight pida!

10:21 pm

stidmama

"fish" for when something is really obvious even a toddler could see it (like a tuna sandwich)

10:21 pm

ADHDWordLover

YIPPPPPPEEEEEEEEE FOR STID!! WTG GIRLFRIEND!! WOO HOO FOR YOU!! SPEECH! SPEECH!

10:21 pm

stidmama

10:21 pm

pida 1

Nite all *poof*

10:21 pm

NonnieLight

when you finish the grid you'll see fireworks come up over the tiles at the bottom left

10:21 pm

jmcantrell

finish, as in find all the words?

10:21 pm

stidmama

*overwhelmed by Do's enthusiasm* thanks dearie, have you had enough coffee for tonight do you think?

10:22 pm

jmcantrell

211 left... i suck :(

10:22 pm

stidmama

yes, jm, all the words

10:22 pm

NonnieLight

yep...every last one of um!

10:22 pm

NonnieLight

nah, jm--you have to start somewhere.

10:22 pm

Minveryork

Fireworks are pretty cool. They are the main reason I went pro. I went pro to participate in icon themes!

10:22 pm

ADHDWordLover

i just dozed off on my laptop and got a second wind!!! and i don't even drink coffee lol

10:22 pm

stidmama

but you should know that most of us who finish take HOURS at it (no, I don't have a life, don't ask)... and the few who are brilliant usually are done by noon your time.

10:23 pm

Minveryork

This isn't the best grid to start as your first grid jim.

10:23 pm

NonnieLight

Psst...I only finish some of the small grids but don't tell anyone!

10:23 pm

jmcantrell

lol

10:24 pm

stidmama

jm, the first several grids I had were about 100 words, and surprisingly easy... then I got slapped with a 300+ one. *smile* this one isn't particularly easy for its size, took a lot longer than they usually do.

10:24 pm

Minveryork

Most of us do not finish withou the help of cluers and lists. By the way, Lickety's list will help you out a lot!

10:24 pm

stidmama

so jm, is that fozzie bear?

10:25 pm

jmcantrell

stid, not sure.. i've used it for years.. just thought it was neat

10:25 pm

jmcantrell

where is lickety's list?

10:26 pm

stidmama

There is a link at the bottom of this page. Open it in a new tab or browser window...

10:26 pm

Minveryork

You will Lickety's Babble clues at the bottom of this page

10:26 pm

Minveryork

You will see Lickety's List at the bottom of this page.

10:26 pm

jmcantrell

ahh... my screen is kind of small.. didn't see it

10:29 pm

stidmama

I am going to wander off unless someone needs clues?

10:29 pm

jmcantrell

i can use some clues... but don't let me keep you

10:30 pm

stidmama

I'm happy to help jm, can you be specific about what you need?

10:30 pm

jmcantrell

maybe some of the 7+ letters?

10:31 pm

stidmama

sure, the first is ad 7/36, a sort of benign tumor

10:31 pm

stidmama

the second is ad 7/36 meaned "decked out" with fine clothes and jewels

10:31 pm

Douglas

And ends in what a lot of cancers end in...the word that is, not death...

10:31 pm

Minveryork

To ask for clues,you give the first two letters of the word,how many letters in the word and the point for the word.For example, id 4/5 is a thought jimcantrell

10:32 pm

stidmama

there is a da 7/32 which is the plural of the place you milk cows

10:32 pm

stidmama

there is a de 7/32 that is plural the de 6/21: a person who says they didn't do it (don't know nuthin' about nuthin')

10:32 pm

ADHDWordLover

64 left and getting sleeeeeepy. can I do it? somebody please pinch me!!!

10:33 pm

jmcantrell

when you say ad 7/36, what does that refer to? (i feel like this is probably in the FAQ, forgive me)

10:33 pm

hetty

Jim, there's an er7 which is like a false teeth cleaner missing its "st" beginning

10:33 pm

stidmama

there is an el 7/32 that is past tense the el 5/10 e + l*** (cut of meat from the thigh)

10:33 pm

stidmama

{{{{hetty dear}}}} so glad to see you this evening! It rained here in the afternoon -- wouldn't you know I was gone all morning and the minute I pull in the drive and let the dogs out!

10:34 pm

Douglas

And he said, Whereunto shall we ***** the kingdom of God? or with what comparison shall we compare it?

10:34 pm

stidmama

the in 7/32 is in + the things you drive your car on (the in 6 is singular of this)

10:34 pm

hetty

If you look at yur word list as you click hem in you'll see the word, folowed by the number of letters in i, followed by the points it scores

10:35 pm

stidmama

there is a ka 7/44 that adds a vowel to the end of the clay used in diarrhea medicine

10:35 pm

jmcantrell

x/y refers to x-letter word of y score?

10:36 pm

stidmama

ma 7/32: more of a male person; ma 7/48 "in the image of" a male person

10:36 pm

hetty

--so you could see el***** 7 32, which means you should ask for el7/32

10:36 pm

Douglas

Yes

10:36 pm

Minveryork

Hello hetty! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!

10:36 pm

cwwizard

hi all I came back to finish

10:36 pm

stidmama

yes jm: 7/44 is a seven letter word worth 44 pts. 4 letter words are straight count, 5 are double, 6 are treble ets

10:36 pm

Minveryork

Hi cwwizard! How are you doing?Welcome to the grid

10:37 pm

stidmama

and I'll stop with those for now... hi cw!

10:37 pm

cwwizard

my computer died today, I'm using my laptop

10:37 pm

hetty

Hullo Min, and greetings dear Stid, and thank you for being you Douglas

10:38 pm

Douglas

And those figures give a useful clue as to what letters are in the word...a 4/9, for example, most likely has a high scoring letter in it, like mo4/9, a male member of a monastic order...

10:38 pm

stidmama

*moment of silence for cw's dead box*

10:38 pm

cwwizard

my computer thanks you

10:38 pm

Douglas

mighty kind of you hetty...

10:39 pm

hetty

I always li*** you to a male of the monastic order you know

10:39 pm

jmcantrell

hetty.. i'm sorry i don't understand how would i know to ask for el 7/32?

10:39 pm

hetty

probably because your Christian background shows and I like that

10:40 pm

stidmama

yep. minute douglas shows up (unless he's here as Locutus) I hear the pie jesu of the mo**s in Monty Python's holy grail...

10:40 pm

stidmama

that's what lickety's list does, jm

10:40 pm

Douglas

The ones whacking themselves on their heads?

10:40 pm

stidmama

it has all the findable words in the right order, listed by first two letters and pt value

10:41 pm

jmcantrell

jeez.. someone tell me to RTFM ;)

10:41 pm

stidmama

yep! that

10:41 pm

hetty

jmc, I'm afraid I've misled you. IU'm asuming you are looking at lckety's list, wj=hich shows then number of words beginning with a 2-letter combination a nd

10:41 pm

bluesoul

hello equally bored people of the internets

10:41 pm

stidmama

that'd be them, douglas! *wicked grin* and then they jump of the branch and....

10:41 pm

Douglas

There's no boredom here, bluesoul...

10:41 pm

hetty

and then goes on to give the number of letters and the point value of each

10:42 pm

stidmama

hey blue soul.

10:42 pm

Minveryork

10:53 pm

Minveryork

Hi arienx52! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid

10:53 pm

10:54 pm

Douglas

I had a friend was a big baseball player
Back in high school
He could throw that speed ball by you
Make you look like a fool, boy
Saw him the other night at this ********* bar
I was walkin' in, he was walkin' out
We went back inside, sat down, had a few drinks
But all he kept talkin' about...

10:55 pm

ADHDWordLover

10:55 pm

11:00 pm

Douglas

It's a song by that commie pinko who has tried to align himself with the bourgeoisie by his moniker...

11:00 pm

hetty

trouble with that one is that there are 3 r8's to try to fit to a tune

11:00 pm

Douglas

hetty

11:00 pm
