herinfernallady

sor right i try not to spell it out but sometimes its hard not too

2:34 am

jillibus

Lickety behaving perfectly this time -- never did get it before

2:35 am

ConXshun

no, me neither. Must be a build up over time or something...

2:35 am

FranMag

if lickety's list is messed up, just throw away the cookies. that's what i had to do yesterday.

2:36 am

herinfernallady

i always purge my computor of cookies it stops it getting fat

2:36 am

jillibus

well, I used bj's list and almost made it to fireworks -- just 4 short

2:37 am

jillibus

herin, that sounds like a good idea!

2:37 am

herinfernallady

Jill you got ripped off

2:37 am

FranMag

you went old school then jilli! :-)

2:37 am

ConXshun

yep, that's what ursh told me to do yesterday, and i told jilli and hetty. It's great when probs like this get solved via the chat. Loads of people were complaining last week about the lists.

2:37 am

2:38 am

jillibus

night lizmac

2:38 am

FranMag

yep, the problem was the cookie was saving the tick marks and words from the day before, you just have to delete it and start with a fresh one.

2:38 am

jillibus

lol herin

2:38 am

ConXshun

oh! Ursh said that soemetimes it also needs a restart

2:38 am

3:45 am

Book Doctor Gwen

. . . chirp chirp . . .

3:49 am

Frances

Morning all. Two days ago there was a word 'haar' and today I heard it for the first time ever on the weather forecast.

3:50 am

Haz1558

Good morning Frances - I learned the word when I was in Edinburgh as a student.

3:51 am

Frances

I wonder if the forecaster is a secret babbler.

3:52 am

herinfernallady

hello again

3:54 am

herinfernallady

Frances maybe they were trying to recruit more babblers

3:55 am

Frances

It just seemed odd that I had never, ever heard it in a forecast before and two days after it appears as a word here the forecaster used it.

3:56 am

herinfernallady

i heard one of my rude words used and i had never heard it before on a show

3:58 am

herinfernallady

where is everyone?

3:58 am

Book Doctor Gwen

-- spooky music -- "Coincidence or Synchronicity??"

3:59 am

herinfernallady

thanks gwen i keep forgeting to put that one in

4:01 am

Book Doctor Gwen

spooky or music? LOL

4:02 am

herinfernallady

the creepy one

4:03 am

herinfernallady

back laters

4:03 am

Book Doctor Gwen

Synchronicity is not creepy, it's just another word for coincidence used by people under the influence of magical thinking 8-)

4:15 am

lynxxx

Hello everyone

4:17 am

MonkeyGames

Hi again. Just dropping in for a bit of unwind-time--my toddler has a fever today, so he can't go to daycare, and there's nobody in the family on this continent, so that means missing my apprenticeship job today and staying home with him. Just got him down for a nap.

4:18 am

Book Doctor Gwen

howdee lynxxx and monkey! and all the crickets . . . chirp chirp . . .

4:19 am

lynxxx

Hi Monkey. some things you just can't plan for!

4:19 am

MonkeyGames

It's 11:18 a.m. over here. No crickets. 'Sides, ours go creak, creak.

4:19 am

MonkeyGames

It's 11:18 a.m. over here. No crickets. 'Sides, ours go creak, creak.

4:20 am

Book Doctor Gwen

okay, for you . . . creak creak . . . (we have pretty small crickets in Michigan) LOL

4:20 am

lynxxx

crickets here too - its been a warmish day so they are in full song this evening

4:21 am

herinfernallady

hey again i had to rest my eyes

4:21 am

MonkeyGames

And no, couldn't plan for this.... but I did suspect. He had a fever (and coughing) Thursday and Friday, was tired Saturday, and was wound up out of his mind yesterday, so I thought he'd overdo it. He's into the last 10 days with his broken leg in a cast too--not fair, just getting to the point where he can run on the cast and then knocked down with a flu!!!!

4:21 am

Book Doctor Gwen

one nasty flu going around here, which I have too: all the symptoms except the big D

4:22 am

lynxxx

Oh poor little man

4:22 am

MonkeyGames

Errrm, call me obtuse, but which one's the big... Oh, never mind. Oops, got it!

4:23 am

MonkeyGames

Speaking of that symptom, that's one he doesn't have. That one is a real hassle with a toddler, especially when I can't get out to the store for more diapers--got enough if that one doesn't start!

4:24 am

Book Doctor Gwen

here's hoping there's no big D in your household for a long time!

4:24 am

MonkeyGames

Thanks! Yours too!

4:25 am

Book Doctor Gwen

aw, gee, thanks. I've had it since Tuesday and all symptoms are gone except a coughy raspy throat and low appetite

4:26 am

MonkeyGames

Well, I hope you get all the way better soon!

4:26 am

Book Doctor Gwen

|-D

4:27 am

MonkeyGames

How do I get a little flag on my profile thingy? Are you really in Wales? Nifty!

4:28 am

Book Doctor Gwen

monkey, put a country in. (No, not in Wales, I put Wales in cuz i like the flag.) Although most countries there's no flag icon in there yet

4:29 am

Book Doctor Gwen

but I've seen flags here from morocco, south africa, australia, new zealand, israel, netherlands, england, scotland, etc!

4:29 am

MonkeyGames

Aha, now I see... it's the pay-for option! I'm too broke right now. Oh well. I'm in the Netherlands.

4:30 am

lynxxx

Update the My Account (above) Monkey. Happens when you put your country in. Although you need to be a pro - not sure if you are?

4:30 am

Book Doctor Gwen

monkey, you also get a little "bust" if you indicate your sex: daily, weekly, etc LOL

4:31 am

herinfernallady

oh man

4:32 am

Book Doctor Gwen

I'm in US, eastern tiem zone, and it's 5:32 am. Weee!

4:32 am

MonkeyGames

Up early or late?

4:32 am

herinfernallady

gwen that is way to early

4:33 am

Book Doctor Gwen

i know, i have the FLU and can't sleep (oh i guess that might be another symptom!) Already watched two DVDs and still wide awake as a baby bird waiting for a worm

4:34 am

Book Doctor Gwen

but i work at home so the boss won't yell at me if i'm late tomorrow LOL

4:34 am

herinfernallady

FLu can screw your sleeping paterns

4:34 am

herinfernallady

Gwen just tell the boss your sick

4:34 am

Book Doctor Gwen

oooh, phlegm!

4:35 am

Book Doctor Gwen

the boss she is me

4:35 am

MonkeyGames

Thank goodness I like my boss (pity it's not ME, though). Today would have been my second day at the apprenticeship and I called toa sk if there's anything I can do from home, l;ike work on the newsletter or something, and she said, "Just take care of that boy, make sure he drinks plenty, see you next time!"

4:36 am

herinfernallady

thats what i mean, convince your self you are sick and bable is your friend

4:36 am

Book Doctor Gwen

what is the G doing in my phlegm?

4:36 am

Book Doctor Gwen

monkey, you have a smart boss!

4:37 am

herinfernallady

MOnkey at least your boss cares about your kids most are mean

4:37 am

Book Doctor Gwen

especially 'Murican bosses

4:39 am

herinfernallady

my old boss was just mean

4:39 am

Book Doctor Gwen

i had the boss from hell a while back -- plan to avoid that for as long as i live

4:39 am

MonkeyGames

True, but I'm a first year student (at 38 years old) for a social work degree, and my apprenticeship is with a community-support organization. There sure are a lot of places I was AFRAID I'd have to work the apprenticeship through at, but this place is cool!

4:40 am

Book Doctor Gwen

good to hear!

4:40 am

herinfernallady

thats why i dont work got sick of being kicked while i worked

4:41 am

Book Doctor Gwen

do you have a specialty like drug addiction, suicide, etc?

4:42 am

Book Doctor Gwen

my first job was a corporation -- actually a big franchise of a corporation -- what a bunch of prancing idiots running the joint

4:43 am

MonkeyGames

No specialty yet--next year we start to develop a minor. I think I'm leaning toward refugees, but then there's autism, not to mention "weird" neurological stuff like Tourette's, Korsakov's, schizophrenia, etc. Gonna be a tough call,actually.

4:43 am

rickychoo

ei7.44? help?

4:44 am

Book Doctor Gwen

don't have the ei7 yet, sorry!

4:44 am

Book Doctor Gwen

you could go with refugees with autism, yes? 8-)

4:45 am

MonkeyGames

I haven't browsed enough to understand these notations... I have a couple of words with ei in them; is that the sort of thing meant?

4:45 am

MonkeyGames

I haven't browsed enough to understand these notations... I have a couple of words with ei in them; is that the sort of thing meant?

4:45 am

Haz1558

ei7/44 - ei plus a reworking of an old fashioned collective term for pigs.

4:46 am

Haz1558

It means it begins with ei and has seven letters.

4:46 am

herinfernallady

thanks haz i was thinking piggy

4:46 am

lynxxx

4:46 am

MonkeyGames

4:56 am

MonkeyGames

5:08 am

herinfernallady

5:16 am

Book Doctor Gwen

. . . creak creak and/or chirp chirp . . .

5:16 am

Book Doctor Gwen

i leave you with less than 30 to go and plenty of crickets. *plonk*

5:17 am

MonkeyGames

At the moment, just cough, cough through the baby monitor, here, accompanied by the unspeakable sounds of a Great Dane snoring.

5:19 am

herinfernallady

poor bubba Monkey, my mum used to feed me, lemon hot water and wiskey at that age to one knock the cough out and me too

5:19 am

herinfernallady

and i can imagian how loud the great dane is as my friend has a mastiff

5:20 am

MonkeyGames

Oof... I DO have whisky... luckily he's coughing in his sleep. Last night he had a really bad coughing fit, and i went in to find him still basically asleep, but too warm and snuffly. I stroked his hair and said softly, "Are you OK, sweetie?" He opened his eyes and said brightly, "Two bicycles!" Guess he'd been dreaming. He's 2 1/2.

5:21 am

herinfernallady

thats cute if hes sleeping let him at it, if you dont mind me asking how did the little tike break his leg

5:25 am

MonkeyGames

Poor little fellow stuck his foot into the spokes of my moving bicycle and sustained a spiral tibia break. It could have been a lot worse--I had slowed down for a car. No knee or ankle displacement, no foot breaks, thank goodness. The folks at the emergency room called it the "classic toddler injury" (everyone carts 'em around in bike seats here). I felt really guilty but they said no matter what safety precautions you take they still often manage this one. I couldn't stand the thought of it ever happening again, though, so now I have one of these, with a kid seat in it: http://www.bakfiets.nl/eng/models_carg
o_trike.php

5:28 am

herinfernallady

that is the bike with the 3 wheels and the basket?

5:28 am

MonkeyGames

Yup--it's not a basket, though. It's a heavy-duty cargo bin with benches fro kids.

5:29 am

herinfernallady

awesome thats what i thought i was makeing sure off

5:30 am

MonkeyGames

In addition to being safe (and my friends think I'm kooky because I make him wear a helmet in the thing) it is REALLY handy. Don't know how I got along without one.

5:30 am

MonkeyGames

miseries

5:31 am

MonkeyGames

That was supposed to be in the words field, sorry.

5:31 am

herinfernallady

we have this thing were there is a bike that has one wheel and attaches to the back of the parents bike

5:31 am

MonkeyGames

There are lots of those here too. He's way too young for those, but I'll get one in a few years.

5:32 am

MonkeyGames

Are we the only two here?

5:33 am

herinfernallady

glad you know what i mean, the boyfriend (boy) thought it was weird but i said its better than a rear basket as its safer to have a reverse trike

5:34 am

herinfernallady

then cars can see your arse and you can keep an eye on the kids i like the 4 point harness as for a helmet thats great as it teaches him that on the road you wear a helmet yep we seem to be the only ones here too

5:34 am

LoriP

G'd morning Babblers!

5:35 am

MonkeyGames

Hi there!

5:36 am

now i want one too

5:37 am

5:37 am

herinfernallady

5:37 am

herinfernallady

hi lori

5:37 am

herinfernallady

I would love a normal bike not trike as i cant ride those but the reverse trike looks easier to ride

5:38 am

kangabrat

5:38 am

herinfernallady

5:38 am

LoriP

G'd morning kanga

5:40 am

herinfernallady

mm roast no body here was hungry so i got the boy to fetch nandos

5:40 am

MonkeyGames

They're not exactly eay to ride--they're heavy and they don't like sharp turns. But they're stable and they go when you pedal!

5:40 am

Uneaixoise

MOVIETONE

9:40 am

jean1953

hello harpjane:)

9:41 am

Atalante

oh that must be so rewarding!

9:42 am

Alleyn

Sometimes deeply frustrating but also amazing on occasions. Teaching one 10 year old who then went on to teach her parents was worth all the heartache

9:42 am

Aloyisius

the only te6.18 I have is the pl of sea birds

9:43 am

Alleyn

Yes! Got the birds .........

9:44 am

Alleyn

9:44 am

Alleyn

Findling today's really, really hard

9:44 am

herinfernallady

Alleyn is that your little beastie?

9:44 am

Scarlet

Yea!! Hello, Alo and everyone!

Haz1558

You're welcome.

9:47 am

Aloyisius

mm, is that the delicious after dinner drink?

9:47 am

Alleyn

Atalante. Many, many reasons. I don't handle severe learning difficulties but kids who do not have English as their language at home. Come from homes with no books etc. and ones that have been ill. Those are just a few of the reasons.

9:48 am

Scarlet

Superb clue, Haz. Thank you.

9:48 am

Haz1558

Glad it helped, Scarlet.

9:48 am

Alleyn

Old fashioned pigs? No longer pink or what????????????/

9:48 am

Atalante

the idea of having no books at home ... *shudder*

9:49 am

Haz1558

No, an old-fashioned name for them - think of the Biblical story of the prodigal son - who would fain have filled his belly with the husks the ? did eat.

9:50 am

Hi there

Pulp fiction, "I don't dig on ______"

9:51 am

ddb4nana

Thanks for that great clue, Haz1558! Wow! That one was next to impossible for me...spent waaaay to long on it!

9:51 am

Haz1558

It's such a peculiar word - never encountered it before.

9:51 am

Alleyn

Clue still eluding me

9:52 am

herinfernallady

hi blue

10:09 am

EvaNadine

thoy -- if you go pro, you get a chart of how many words stem from each tile. and if you go to "lickety's babble clues" (linked at the bottom) it gives you clues for the words -- let you know how many of each are in the grid.

10:09 am

herinfernallady

coffee stops me from harming my partners house mate

10:09 am

walaka

hello my darlin R angle

10:10 am

bendamalina

i love my coffee, too...but I limit myself to one pot of frenchpress per day

10:10 am

bendamalina

unless I go see friends at a coffee shop....:)

10:10 am

bendamalina

I want to get one of those stovetop espresso makers

10:10 am

Judi

What kind of coffee do you drink, herinfern? I have to have my gourmet beans that I grind myself. I'm such a coffee snob.

10:11 am

Thoy

thns evan,,...but is pro more difficult ?? I have enuff probs with this one !!

10:11 am

Atalante

pro is the same puzzle :)

10:11 am

EvaNadine

thoy -- its the same grid -- going pro just gets you extras that help you out. :)

10:11 am

herinfernallady

i go to gloria jeans but it depends on if the CRAP coffee guy is there, i useually drink Gloria Geans(?) flavor beans, today we have Butter Toffee, sometimes blueberry morning sometimes white russian

10:12 am

bendamalina

do you pee the 2 L back into your cup, lady? *giggle* no need to get up from the babbling.....

10:12 am

herinfernallady

nope

10:12 am

herinfernallady

wow maybe thatsn what I need... and I thought every1 was so much btighter than me ;-))

10:12 am

bendamalina

hhahahaha...sorry, sometimes I have the most juvenile sense of humor

10:12 am

herinfernallady

i am a role player im used to way too much coffee not enough sleep and too much game time what ever game im playing

10:13 am

Judi

Uhg. Fruit flavored coffee I cannot do. I'm a hazelnut and vanilla fan though.

10:13 am

bluesoul

heh, a buddy of mine was a big D&D and Shadowrun player and he had the same problem

10:13 am

herinfernallady

mmm hazelnut

10:13 am

herinfernallady

oh shadowrun cool my partners running that at the moment

10:14 am

bendamalina

I am a straight up coffee kinda chick. I'm drinking (organic free trade) ethiopian harrar right now.

10:14 am

bendamalina

i like it--the local farmers' market roasts it on site, so it's always full flavored and fresh tasting

10:15 am

herinfernallady

Gloria Jeans has free trade stuff, i cant Starbucks and wish it would bugger off

10:15 am

bendamalina

starbuck's burns their coffee beans so you can't taste how stale and flavorless they are.

10:16 am

herinfernallady

oh is that the deal with them

10:16 am

Judi

Haven't heard of Gloria Jeans. Starbucks is okay in a pinch. Most of it's too strong for me though. I like a mellower blend.

10:16 am

herinfernallady

oh Gloria Jeans is an AUssie brand but the are expanding in the US

10:16 am

harpjane

in the sixties we had to drive from Montana to San Francisco to get good coffee. We'd stock up and keep it in the freezer.

10:16 am

EvaNadine

i think ive seen a gloria jeans in a mall in baltimore...

10:16 am

bendamalina

yeah...a lot of coffee's flavor has to do with how recently it's been roasted, and how recently it's been ground. starbucks, any big coffee producer, has to have beans with a longer shelf life

10:17 am

herinfernallady

http://www.gloriajeans.com/

10:17 am

bendamalina

now Montana has great coffee--I was doing my field work up there a few years ago, and I had some of the best damn coffee from the most ramshackle looking places. then we drove out through to eastern washington...coffee was awesome everywhere

10:17 am

herinfernallady

there is a usa indicator at this site and add an au for aus

10:18 am

Judi

Yes, most mass producers use "robusto" beans. Which means, literally, rubber. Stick with the mountain growns and you'll have fine coffee.

10:18 am

Scarlet

We grind our own with a Braun, and the taste is surreal... we love rich, strong coffee. Now, with all this coffee-talk, I am yearning for some banana- streusel muffins... which I shall go create! See you in about an hour and a half! LOL

10:18 am

bendamalina

yeah...robusto beans, but also "dark" roast....hahahaha

10:18 am

anyas_wrath

have any of you guys ever ad equal exchange coffee? or are you just discussing coffee at coffee ouses?

10:19 am

bendamalina

yeah...fair trade, equal exchange...

10:19 am

Judi

What the ell, Anyas? You got something against H's?? lol

10:19 am

anyas_wrath

sorry, it sticks on my computer.

10:20 am

Judi

Fair trade and equal exchanges coffees are usually quite good.

10:20 am

Aloyisius

break time.. bbl

10:20 am

Scarlet

See you, Alo. I must go make muffins!

10:20 am

GoBraves

how many words today?

10:21 am

bendamalina

there's a coffee house in my town that exclusively uses fair trade beans--they get 'em green and roast them themselves. they have the best coffee. a few years ago, they brought some of the farmers here to meet their customers (I think the farmers were coming to the US for some sort of convention, too)

Atalante

am here!

11:35 am

stidmama

thanks all (especially Cryptic) :-) was beginning to think I had gone babble-deaf

11:35 am

knutmeg

shes doing great, stid :-) not quite walking, but there is a mouth full of teeth, lots of movement, and she even says hi and daddy at the right times.

11:35 am

Haz1558

Just wanted to check that there was still some sanity left in the world.

11:35 am

knutmeg

my picture is from her birthday last tuesday

11:35 am

stidmama

how cool is that! a year already, how time flies.

11:36 am

11:36 am

11:37 am

11:37 am

Atalante

do you ever have this problem with Spangle, Haz? http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/51
731630/

11:37 am

stidmama

just what I was thinking! and how about yourself? are you staying busy? rofl...

11:38 am

knutmeg

nagh, so many hours to just toil around here... *snickering*

11:39 am

stidmama

so stidkid#2 twisted his ankle yesterday and I kept him home for observation. Pretty sure it's just a little strain, but didn't want him being silly on the playground. So I get to teach "least common multiple" to him!

11:39 am

knutmeg

especially since we added the puppy. (bad idea, btw, puppy = extra needy baby)

11:39 am

stidmama

puppy? you got a DAWG? oh dear, and does masochism run in the family or -- ??

11:39 am

Haz1558

Are you ready for the shock, Atalante? Spangle sleeps outside in her kennel...... but she does love to hug during the day....

11:40 am

Atalante

*shocked*!!!! :)

11:40 am

BGL

Stid - I think you can turn Babble into a math lesson... :) maybe not least common multiple but definitely some algebra!

11:40 am

Haz1558

Husband with very set views on where a dog should sleep.....

11:40 am

knutmeg

yes, I believe it does. I'll trade you my fussy teething girl and her hyper puppy for your least common multiples!

11:41 am

Atalante

saying that, holly only gets to be with me at night once a week, the rest of the time she lurks in her basket

11:41 am

stidmama

*giggle* Dogs are okay sleeping outside usually, but with no fences here ours stay in with us at night.

11:41 am

Haz1558

She is inside with me all day, but is resigned to being turfed outside at night.

11:41 am

stidmama

thanks BGL, I was considering my options... LOL I did find some good explanations online (though I already knew what I wanted to say, I wanted to be sure I used the right terms).

11:42 am

stidmama

hm. only if I can send the LCMs to you WITH the older kid (teenager you know)...

11:42 am

Haz1558

Husband now home for his evening meal, so I'd better disappear again....

11:42 am

Atalante

but when she's allowed in the bedroom, she *always* sneaks up me. ending with trying to sleep on my head

11:42 am

stidmama

later Haz...

11:43 am

knutmeg

I supervise teens at work all day, that I would agree to. now where is my transporter.... Scotty!?

11:43 am

knutmeg

ttfn, haz!

11:43 am

stidmama

when my dear Tom is away, the German Shepherd figures it's his turn... *sigh* unless the little dog jumps up first and then I have to listen to growling all night long.

11:44 am

stidmama

Did you get a new job, knut?

11:45 am

knutmeg

no, still work the grocery gig. I did get transferred to a new store, which is much smaller than my previous so now i function mostly as a supervisor, and since i only work nights, i get all the teen workers.

11:45 am

EspritdJean

Knutmeg where in Illinois are you?

11:46 am

stidmama

oh I see -- well supervising them is good experience for later!

11:48 am

stidmama

okay, kid is ready to learn, I think I am ready to teach.

11:48 am

knutmeg

good luck!

11:48 am

EspritdJean

It wouldn't be likely, but I will keep in mind

11:49 am

EspritdJean

I would be more likely to run in there at lunch time or after work

11:49 am

EspritdJean

such a small world

11:49 am

stidmama

You'll do fine, knutmeg. She'll be smart, and you'll know how to introduce good dating habits ;-)

11:49 am

stidmama

back later.

11:50 am

knutmeg

12:06 pm

LoriP

ei + snake letter + hot dogs or ****ers

12:08 pm

cybernan

12:08 pm

12:10 pm

chic

ei 7 is wine made from late harvest riesling grapes...

12:10 pm

cybernan

yes, but around here (an our region is famous for it) it's called by the english name -- ice wine

12:11 pm

cybernan

and it's not late harvest, it is wine made from grapes that have been picked at -11F. Quite a procedure -- a split usually costs around $45.00

12:14 pm

NonoNanette

have 165 words time to go to list i think

12:14 pm

LoriP

I give up. re 6/21 please?

12:14 pm

chic

well it's late harvest in that it's not usually picked until the brix is perfect and the the temp is cold enough usually late oct or nov

12:15 pm

knutmeg

ne6/18? (sadly, don't have that r yet)

12:15 pm

cybernan

that indeed is a late harvest wine, chic -- ice wine differs in that the grapes must be frozen and not picked at a temperature above -11 degrees to receive the designation of 'ice wine'.

12:16 pm

LoriP

ne + a** you kidding me + what ** up with that?

12:16 pm

knutmeg

thank you again!

12:16 pm

Gkmandy

lori

12:17 pm

How about the last re 5/20?

12:17 pm

12:18 pm

knutmeg

lori- re/6/21 re+ double hump + what ** up with that+ second vowel

12:18 pm

chic

Yes a few of Braun's I've read.. but not lately..

Thank ye muchly knut!!!!!

12:19 pm

knutmeg

re5/20 plural for tyrannosaurus re*

12:19 pm

cybernan

You are absolutely right --- two years ago the gong went at 2:00 am on New Years Day and all the pickers had to turn out to the vineyards! --- I wonder how many of them were sober?!

12:20 pm

12:24 pm

12:31 pm

cybernan

They are mostly estate wines often not exported as they can't keep up with demand locally. We have some very strict laws regarding quantity and content of the estate wines. You might want to plan a trip up here some time to coincide with the fall wine festival (first week in October) -- it is well worth it.

12:31 pm

bluesoul

wo6/30/2 is a word? they need to check their grammar handbook

12:41 pm

Haz1558

se6/21 - one who appears to be something, and plural

12:41 pm

Haz1558

Sounds like, but is spelled differently to those who put things in to hold clothes together.

12:41 pm

Hot Ham Water

12:41 pm

Hot Ham Water

the se7 is 28 pts

Hot Ham Water

12:44 pm

Atalante

12:45 pm

Hot Ham they sound like 'scissor/s'..

3:07 pm

Nono, one night I had just one word left, a four-letter one at that, and nothing I did make any sense. I was too stubborn to ask for help on it, and later, discovered I was looking at the wrong end of the grid to find it. Color me very thick... and I don't think I have learned to expand my vision since then... LOL

3:08 pm

I had to change my picture. We took Paigey skiing for the 1st time this weekend. She's just a bit over 2. She loved it and doesn't understand why she can't ski anymore. I keep trying to explain that you need snow to ski.

3:11 pm

Thanks Mom.

Scarlet

Minski, she is a darling little girl...

3:15 pm

Minski

She kept saying more....more for about 20 minutes then it was all done...out....out. The guys in the rental office didn't even charge us for her equipment. It was huge for her. So cute and funny.

3:16 pm

Scarlet

Maybe you're incubating an Olympian, Minski?? LOL

3:17 pm

Minski

Maybe. Waterville Valley has produced more than a few Freestyle Skiers for the US Ski Team.

No pressure though. Going that far involves competeing and skiing every weekend all winter and spring and committing summers to ski camps, etc etc. If she wants it that's fine but it's a huge committment and I won't push her.

3:18 pm

ren8

not to worry I have found it now

3:20 pm

Scarlet

My children have continued to amaze me their entire lives, and all I had to do was support them emotionally, listen to their minds and hearts, and hug them breathless when they returned.

3:21 pm

It's the only recipe I know...

You're welcome.

5:31 pm

Scarlet

I also have trouble with the four words listed prior to Samoan coin: se5/10; se6/18; se6/18; and se7/28.

5:32 pm

Haz1558

Begin with the se5/10 - formed by adding a vowel to Spanish six. se6/18 adds a consonant to make it the person who.

5:32 pm

Haz1558

The next se6/18 is structured in the same way, but replaces the final vowel with another. Then plural for se7/28

5:33 pm

featherbee

thanks haz

5:33 pm

Haz1558

No problem, feather.

5:34 pm

Scarlet

Thank you, Haz. I now have the first se combo. Now, I have the second. I never heard of those words before this evening.

9:48 pm

Jacula

I still don't understand why anyone puts words onto the Lickety list instead of just entering them. You don't get penalised on here for wrong words, you know. Not yet, anyway. *evil grin* You can just wait until you can't see another single word and then download Lickety's (or BJ's) printable list.

9:49 pm

9:51 pm

dlfox

anyone know what oo5/10 means?

9:51 pm

helenkeller

dlfox - click on the question mark next to the word & it will tell you the dfinition - it's like magic!

9:51 pm

Jacula

However, (sound of old person talking) I remember thee days when neither of the lists existed. We just took our chances then... worked hard, thought hard and just got on with it. *grins*

9:51 pm

Jacula

Most of us still do it that way.

9:51 pm

dlfox

I did - undefined

9:52 pm

Andree

i always wait as long as possible then print list, never tried entering into lickety first, seems twice the work

ladynoire1013

I just dont want to print the list and then write it by hand

9:53 pm

greengeeny

sometimes I can finish the puzzle without the list...usually the clues in the chat are more fun than the list, but I do use it. lol hk

9:53 pm

Minveryork

I do that,I print the list and write the words by hand

9:53 pm

Minveryork

i do not go to the list until after I get half the words.

9:53 pm

9:55 pm

Jacula

Hell, dear friend, I appreciate the Monty Pythonesque post. LOL. However, what I was working up to saying was that we only had our own resources and each other to finish the grids and that's why the Babble community grew as it did.

9:55 pm

doxy1lover

add a consonant to the end

9:56 pm

greengeeny

Holy cow...I just got the se5/12...should have spotted that one a long time ago!

lady noire - print the list and then write it by hand? You can just save the list to 'notepad' and then stick it up next to your wordlist, you know. Just so long as you've exhausted all other possiblities before you do that. LOL.

i was thinking about that earlier today, jac. the list is so helpful to me. but i really, really enjoy the chat and the clueing.

Again I ask.... what's the theme for tomorrow?

11:16 pm

Dispatch

i don't have a problem with you or your posts. just like you, i am stating my opinion. min addresses everyone with a polite, friendly greeting. you came down hard on her for that and asked her not to do it again. i'm suggesting that you return her politenss and just say hello instead of criticizing.

11:16 pm

Dispatch

your other posts were offered as an excuse that you are 50 and grumpy.

Dispatch

if you know that you are grumpy...wouldn't you rather be happy? i'm just suggesting that if you know you are grumpy, why not do something about it instead of offering your age as an excuse

11:18 pm

Dispatch - if you had been here long enough you would know that Min doesn't take offence from what I said,. You would also know enough to know wher to go to find what she was on about in the first place when she chose that greeting.

Hello Dispatch...

11:27 pm

Dispatch

jac...no point was missed...you are 50, grumpy, and insist that's the way it is where you come from. my point was...you don't have to live a grumpy life no matter how old you are or where you live. it seems that my "newbie-ness" and your "grumpiness" just won't mesh tonight.

11:27 pm

Jacula

OOPS! Sorry.

11:47 pm

hootowl

Of course you are, hoot. The sewing of the birds' eyes begins with 'seel', btw.

11:48 pm

Dispatch

I don't think they do that any more. Use hoods now.

11:51 pm

Jacula

Yup, hoods, I hope now. Do you really believe they don't sew the eyes up any more?

11:52 pm

hootowl

Having met a few falconers and talked to them - yes.

11:53 pm

Jacula

Hoot - where have you met your falconers?

11:54 pm

Dispatch

douglas...have you finished?

11:54 pm

hootowl

Besides ... now we have the ASPCA - you must have an equivalent?

11:54 pm

Jacula

Hoot - I've heard same in UK but believed few. Sadly.

11:55 pm

hootowl

A couple at SCA events and once at a museum the bf & I stopped at.

11:55 pm

hootowl

Nuts! PETA would be on their arses in a heartbeat!

11:56 pm

Jacula

Yeah, well, try Scotland and see what they say.

11:56 pm

hootowl

Well we'll have to notify PETA and watch them annoy the he** out of them!

11:57 pm

hootowl

You must have some kind of animal rights fanatics there?

11:58 pm

Jacula

Never mind, falconers (well, not them, but their bosses, still seel falcons.

11:58 pm

hootowl

That may be the problem then. Our falconers are all independant. Do what they want, not take orders.

11:59 pm

pida 1

Any last minute clues?????

11:59 pm

dlfox

11:59 pm
