hi sprite

1:47 am

annotherone

how's the grid today?

1:47 am

jillibus

interesting chat with Lickety, eh sprite?

1:48 am

sprite

absolutely, jilli

1:48 am

jillibus

ann -- nice size but full of almost-words

1:48 am

sprite

this babble browser is a piece of genius

1:49 am

sprite

ooph, for a moment I thought piece was a word in the grid... it isn't

1:49 am

sprite

ann, it is a good grid, but not easy

1:50 am

sprite

I am totally in love with this Add Word or Chat window

1:50 am

annotherone

I get the feeling that it's one of those little but tricky grids

1:50 am

jillibus

Isn't it great?

1:51 am

sprite

it is so smart! Never thought one could write a script or whatever (noob talking) to make a box recognise a single word or a sentence entry

1:51 am

jillibus

There are some like Inge and maybe Pink who haven't discovered it yet -- to me it's the shole point

1:51 am

jillibus

Lickety is a marvel

1:52 am

sprite

I agree, both on the whole point and the marvel!

1:55 am

sprite

yay, greyed the bottom row :)

1:55 am

jillibus

I need 3 more Twords to do that ;)

1:56 am

jillibus

2 more now

1:57 am

sprite

lol, now I have this song in my head... For everything, t4, t4, t4, there is a season, t4, t4 t4....

1:57 am

sprite

do you have the neither war nor peace word?

1:58 am

jillibus

I do now -- thanks -- bottom row grey here too :D

1:58 am

sprite

yay

1:58 am

sprite

(note: that was my first single word entry in the chat through the lickety browser :)

1:59 am

jillibus

ah!

1:59 am

sprite

yay, you did it too :D

1:59 am

jillibus

me too

1:59 am

jillibus

ain't we got fun?

2:00 am

sprite

literally, jilli... I am sitting here with a big smile on my face

2:01 am

sprite

this is so intuitive, so perfectly working!

2:01 am

jillibus

hiccup time and bedtime for me

2:01 am

sprite

ah, hiccup time shows me how the sentence is moved to the chat window of babble itself :D

2:01 am

sprite

night jilli, sweet dreams to you, sweet lady :)

2:02 am

jillibus

have a GOOD day, dear sprite

2:02 am

sprite

will do! *hug*

2:03 am

jillibus

Oh, I made the clues disappear but don't know how to get them back!

2:04 am

sprite

just drag the orange vertical bar back to the right

2:04 am

sprite

the one with the little black dots

2:05 am

jillibus

oh yes -- didn't notice it was still there, duh -- now I'll stop playing and go to bed

2:05 am

sprite

night jilli!

2:08 am

jillibus

*poof*

2:15 am

licketySplitAUS

2:17 am

licketySplitAUS

my problem seems to be that i forget to look for 2 different letter starts like the au in 2 places etc..makes me mad when i don't..

3:02 am

sprite

vowels are always harder, for some reason

3:03 am

grannymaxx

3:03 am

sprite

pinkhatlil

morning sugar

3:40 am

sprite

I used a lot of A2Z on this one, lots of uncommon words

3:41 am

lynxxx

I like it (not) when they/trolls 'demand' an 8 (several times) and then 2 minutes later after finding it start forcing the word down everyones throat. grrrr

3:42 am

sugar

*heart sinks to boots - not fond of uncommon words*

3:42 am

Flask1

Morning all!

3:42 am

4:02 am

lizmac

Okay I'll look for one myself. TY Sprite...now I've got a 7.

4:03 am

4:03 am

grannymaxx

4:03 am

sprite

granny, water in french is very vowelly :)

4:04 am

lizmac

4:04 am

sprite

nah, that would make waters, liz, not water ;)

4:04 am

lynxxx

TY for ba Sprite - I get it as a 6 - to get to 7 I do what?

4:05 am

sprite

there is ic7 and 6, both compounds with a very cold start. Not a combo, they are unrelated.

4:05 am

lizmac

Or Boats? N'est pas?

4:05 am

sprite

I am sorry, lynxxx, I mistyped there. It IS a 6. Not a 7.

4:05 am

sprite

lol liz... singular of that is valid...

4:06 am

sprite

one of the ph6 words makes an A7 as well

4:07 am

lizmac

Just trying to be Madame Smarty Pants....back to what I do best..monkey typing LOL

4:07 am

grannymaxx

omg i found it!

4:07 am

sprite

yay granny!

4:09 am

sprite

other compound 6s: tiny round green + chicken is one, and the thing we pour the famous english drink from is another. I always have trouble with compounds, no matter how common they are.

4:09 am

lizmac

TY for the clues, they've given me a kick start.

4:10 am

sprite

Her shoulder has to remain immobile for three weeks, taped to her ribcage, elbow at a 90-degree angle... Lady... she ripped her tendons in her arm about 10 years ago in an accident, and the tendon that attached to her shoulder atrophied, and all the fluid drained out of the joint... no doctor gave her any hope of using that arm again... until this surgery.

5:46 am

carleekat

wow... welll..10 years ago..they probably didn't have the technology or techniques...

7:00 am

carleekat

why doesn't that surprise me????

7:00 am

Scarlet

LOL. It's Haz...

7:01 am

Yes, because I am not addicted to babble, I am mildly attached.

7:01 am

carleekat

( so....crunchy desert ideas besides caramel corn or home made granola bars?)

What about an apple crumble with very crunchy nut/ brown sugar topping, kat?

7:03 am

Haz1558

It's really not a problem. You do go to bed at nights, don't you?

7:03 am

carleekat

while she mildly types away...

7:04 am

Scarlet

kat, if you mix in flour, butter, brown sugar and a tablespoon of clear corn syrup, it will crunch up in the overn. PM Blair has announced his pending retirement... Most of the time, Haz!

7:04 am

Haz1558

Mr Blair has always paused effectively and driven us mad.

7:04 am

sugar

I have resigned myself to the fact that I have an addictive personality........

7:04 am

Scarlet

Well, the big pause is coming soon...

7:04 am

7:05 am

Haz1558

And then we'll have Gordon Brown, who has a weird facial tic. His jaw drops open - it's as if he loses control of it.

7:05 am

Will the next PM be as pro-Bush as Blair?

7:05 am

8:19 am

Scarlet

Horray for inge! Well done!

8:19 am

bunnyvicious

Hmmm, maybe he's regretting a few things. You could just flat out ask him. I'm not one for beating around the bush as I near my third decade, lol.

8:19 am

inge

iNGE 2, are you into breeding them?

8:20 am

Inge2

no, but my sister had a male and female, and bred hers once.

8:20 am

NonoNanette

lickety i hope to be able to go pro next month if nothing else pops up to take my money

8:20 am

EvaNadine

well, im not sure i want to have any contact with him. it took me a while to get over everything that happened. now ive moved on + im with someone new. i certainly have no interest in rehashing things, but i dont think i even want to have contact with him.

8:20 am

grannyrose

FIREWORKS at last!!!! thanx lickerty and all who gave me great clues.

8:20 am

Inge2

If you're happy as you are, evan, then why bother with him?

8:21 am

licketySplitAUS

Ok Nono - good one. I just want to make sure that those using BB are Pro.

8:21 am

bunnyvicious

Yeah...I'm really not one to listen to when it comes to things like that. I re-married my ex-husband.

8:21 am

inge

our NIka has turned into a rather old lady, a new addition now would drive her batty. Besides Nika has ruined our sofa, and hubby wont let me get another till dog is gone!

8:22 am

EvaNadine

apparently hes now "6 months cancer-free"
cancer is news to me, so i have a feeling that might have had to do with our splitting up.

8:22 am

licketySplitAUS

evandine - $$$$ - Bombshell - so much for your heart

8:22 am

8:23 am

grannyrose

mmmm evan keep the break clean. maybe the mention of the big C could be a sympathy line.

8:24 am

bunnyvicious

Stephen is my highschool sweetheart, father of all five kiddos. Was meant to be, just took a lot of stalking and such.

8:24 am

EvaNadine

he also mentioned that after we split up, he went on like 3 dates with a girl who used to be one of my best friends. (our friendship fell apart before he + i split up)
he also mentioned that before things ended, he had bought me a ring. which is weird, since the reason we broke up was that after 2 years together, he had an "epiphany" that he never wanted to get married or have kids.

8:25 am

raelite

hey everyone :) -- evan, sounds like he was looking for a way out

8:25 am

bunnyvicious

I agree though, if that were the reason, he should have laid it on the table from the get go. If your happy with who you're with, jsut close the door on that chapter. Sounds like he can't keep his stories straight anyhow.

8:26 am

I don't think anyone realizes how much they'll miss a pet until it goes, really...the cat and I have a love-hate relationship [and the love bit's only because I feed it], but I can't imagine it without the furry fool..

2:37 pm

carleekat

( well..its hard when i don't HAVE one... but when one was staring me in the face... )

2:38 pm

annotherone

I'm never around for the flip so I'd be interested to hear the answer to that too

2:40 pm

carleekat

never heard of "flip"

2:40 pm

Haz1558

It just means that the puzzle has changed. People compete to see who can say flip first.

2:40 pm

firefox7

wondered if it meant, "the puzzle's changed and I've got the first word" or summat

2:40 pm

firefox7

ahh, thanks, Haz :)

2:40 pm

garyandjulie

Hey everyone, I've got a Wedding to go to today, so clues page will be a little late (maybe 6 hours late) to update. If you are running BabbleBrowser - it'll still word, but if you use the Lickety Add, you won't get the right colours until Clues are update. You could use the normal add if you are worried about it, and when clues are up - move the words over with the 'Send Words to Clues' button.

6:57 pm

Hugabugs

First off, he was out in the pouring rain, then he was still out in it trying to see off the intact Tom that looks like him, after he'd seen him off the premises he caught a mouse (a little hoppy one, like a miniature gerbil) on the way back home, yowled to come in, brought still live mouse in with him, dropped it, caught it again, got booted out, ate it under 'Fred The Fir Tree' (don't ask, re the tree name! LOL) and then demanded to be let in again and dried off. He's now in bed in the utility room, in his tiger-striped igloo at4/5 the little chest freezer.

Big eyes are inherent in babies of all kinds - we are genetically programmed to be appealled/attracted by them. Glad I've still got big eyes. LOL.

8:57 pm

Jacula

If 'big eyes' are part of the overall 'plan', then it must be true that 'the eyes are the window to the soul'?

8:59 pm

Jacula

Matthew 6:22-23 (King James Version)
King James Version (KJV)
22 The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.

23 But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!
