jillibus

12:41 am

SamanthaJoy

Jellen, it cracks me up that you thought you specified that the multiple marriages were serial. I'm not sure why I am laughing so hard about that but I am.

12:41 am

Jellen

I don't know yet how some of the information I've found ties together, but I'm interested.

Hi im new. I keep putting owrds in that are in the puzzle and it keeps saying word not in the puzzle - can any one explain this to me please

4:46 am

orionova

Hi, Herin! The game is pretty simple. You make words from the letters, but the letters must be touching each other.

4:47 am

orionova

The letters can go in any direction, so long as they are touching.

4:47 am

herin

ok great thanks! Where are the rules and explanation for me to look at please. Does the same board last all day?

4:47 am

broll

5:11 am

herin

perhaps some one can let me kow what a good score is and if when you have found a word that someone else can no longer find it.

5:12 am

pinkhatlil

im sure she will do her party piece G&J!!

5:14 am

garyandjulie

everyone can find all the words herin. a good score is not something I worry about just how many words i get. most days I don't finish due to time restraints

5:14 am

garyandjulie

scores change day by day due to a different word count every day

5:15 am

garyandjulie

my daughter was a positive charmer at little pinks age. she's just turned 17 and stil is

toadandtoadette

what do you mean liz/

5:18 am

toadandtoadette

?

5:18 am

Haz1558

toad - take the last t from the word you mentioned as a phantom and it's an acceptable word.

5:19 am

pinkhatlil

my daughter could charm the birds out the tree, but she will play me up as we wont be in the childrens a and e where the toys are

5:19 am

toadandtoadette

thanks haz

5:19 am

Haz1558

You're welcome - we use it here for a cross, henpecking sort of woman. Not a compliment!

5:20 am

toadandtoadette

never heard of it. interesting

5:20 am

garyandjulie

my 4 year old it's the 50 kiddies rides in the shopping malls, will throw tantrums for them. never works though unless he is just with gary

5:21 am

lizmac

It seems to be an amalgam of yesterday's words and today's all in the wrong places e.g.AE..airn..what's THAT about? AND it claims I've got 222 words and I haven't even started..boy, that was the quickest grid ever LOL

5:22 am

Haz1558

Mine is okay, lizmac, I suppose you could try refreshing the clues.

5:22 am

lizmac

I've tried closing/reopening, refreshing etc. to no avail.

5:23 am

Haz1558

Well, you've used up all my computer knowledge!

5:23 am

lizmac

Maybe I'll try using V10 or something.

5:23 am

garyandjulie

is v11 causing probs?

5:24 am

lizmac

It's just plain wierd.

5:24 am

Haz1558

Say what you mean, liz, don't hold back.

5:25 am

lizmac

Spooks on the 'pute..woooooo.

5:26 am

Haz1558

Is that the X files music?

5:27 am

lizmac

I'm off to try V10, before the ghosties get me. I'll report on progress!

5:27 am

Haz1558

See you later, liz.

5:27 am

Scrabbler

Here I am to help---Scully reporting for investigation!

5:31 am

lizmac

Oh dear, V10 link doesn't work. Back to V11, reloaded...just the same. Who do we call (all together now) Ghostbusters!!

5:32 am

Scrabbler

Hmmmm....does it hurt to move or even at rest?

5:32 am

Scrabbler

My ideas are below, Liz

5:33 am

lizmac

No, Scrabbler, I'm feeling alone and scared..I might have to do this puzzle unassisted by Lickety! BooHoo.

5:33 am

pinkhatlil

it hurts when im still and moving, plus the feeling of faintness creeps over me from time to time, its been going on for months but it hurts alot more, and im getting scared

5:34 am

toadandtoadette

have you tried going on line to his site

5:34 am

Scrabbler

You are here with us and you are safe. We will guide you through this misadventure.

5:34 am

Haz1558

You can still bring up lickety's list in a separate window, though?

5:34 am

lizmac

Off to the Doc's Pink!

5:34 am

Scrabbler

For months, Lil? Yes, get it checked out.

5:35 am

lizmac

Haz, didn't think of that, I'll try.

5:35 am

Haz1558

In the immortal words of Derek Trotter, liz, 'You know it makes sense.'

5:36 am

Scrabbler

Is the X used in any words?

5:36 am

pinkhatlil

yes scrabbler

5:36 am

Haz1558

Yes, think of what you do to your muscles.

5:37 am

Scrabbler

TY, Lil

5:37 am

Scrabbler

I am fl4ing them as I type!!

5:37 am

Haz1558

And what the IRS is.

5:38 am

Scrabbler

Ah, yes---I am just getting intimate with the grid....TY

5:38 am

Haz1558

And the sort of test we do in school

5:38 am

Haz1558

Wouldn't it be awful to have to pass a test in how well you use your muscles?

5:38 am

Scrabbler

TY--those words all seem so obvious now that I am embarassed to have asked for hints.

5:39 am

Haz1558

There may be more I haven't discovered yet.

5:39 am

Scrabbler

We went through those days, didn't we, Hazel?

5:40 am

Haz1558

Yes, all the gym teacher ever gave me were withering/pitying looks.

5:41 am

Scrabbler

I was a big girl, so I couldn't run the long distances or do pull-ups, but I was other wise a good athlete. There was Scrabbler lagging in last place during the mile-runs, wishing for oxygen.

5:41 am

Haz1558

Rolex not acceptable - enable can probably spot all the forgeries.

5:42 am

Scrabbler

LOL, hazel

5:42 am

herin

Scrabbler - Do you play scrabble to

5:42 am

Haz1558

I was always the last to be picked for any games. Team captains accepted me as a kind of booby prize.

5:43 am

Scrabbler

I do with my friends, but not on-line---I don't want the added pressure of a time constraint. Welcome, herin.

5:43 am

Scrabbler

Poor Hazel! Your talents lie elsewhere!!

5:44 am

Haz1558

That's for sure.

5:44 am

LoriP

G'd morning Babblers!

5:44 am

Haz1558

Good morning Lori!

5:45 am

Scrabbler

That ag4,8 is ridiculous, but so am I because I monkeyed it

5:46 am

Scrabbler

Hey, Lori!! I thought of you yesterday when I was behind a truck with a Nova Scotia license plate!! I wanted to pull aside and ask the driver if he knew you, but he was going too fast for me.

5:46 am

pinkhatlil

Hey Lori

5:46 am

LoriP

LOL Scrabbler.

5:46 am

LoriP

G'd morning Ninja pink!

5:47 am

LoriP

Samere Scrabbler. I saw a NY plate, thought maybe they might know ya'. :-)

5:47 am

Haz1558

It would have been fun if you had caugnt up with him, run him off the road and demanded to know if he knew somebody in Canada (first name only). You'd have been carted off for sure!

5:47 am

pinkhatlil

The ninja suit has a hole in it must try and sow it up asap

5:47 am

Scrabbler

"Excuse me, sir? Sir? Yes, do you know LoriP? Yes, LoriP..she lives in Nova Scotia. She is a famous Babbler."....He would have flipped me the bird, I think.

5:48 am

Haz1558

Even more fun if he HAD known her!

5:48 am

Scrabbler

Aw, Lil--talk back to the Black Monster!! And, here..you can have my Happiness Ninja Suit for battle.

5:49 am

Scrabbler

"Sir, you DO know LoriP? Quite a gal, isn't she?"....."Yep, she sure does hate those re's."

5:49 am

LoriP

***Hnads pink a smiley face iron on patch for the Happiness Ninja suit***

5:49 am

Haz1558

That sounds about right!

5:50 am

lizmac

Latest on strange Lickety behaviour. Clues are the same when brought up on a separate page, linked from original Babble site.....I know poor Lickety is under a lot of strain just now, so I'll just go ahead and blame him and soldier on LOL

5:51 am

Scrabbler

So, Liz, you are having problems with the basic Babble site too?

5:51 am

Haz1558

That X files music is getting louder.

5:51 am

LoriP

The happiness Ninja suit is very durable. Iron on patches are faster than sewing.

5:51 am

Scrabbler

I found 2 ax4's

5:51 am

Haz1558

Somebody HAD to mention sewing, didn't they?

5:51 am

pinkhatlil

**dons the new and improved smiley face suit and the black monster looks.... confused.... backs off verrryyy slowwwlllyyyy

5:51 am

herin

Thank you for the welcome. Its just that I wondered if you played on Scrabulous. Its free and its a great site for plaing. The only time restraints are the ones you choose and if you play robots which i do i choose a long period of time like 50 minutes and finish the game in like 5 mins. It takes the pressure of though. Maybe give it a go. It could be on the friends of babble link if anyone else likes scrabble.I am new here.Whats it like. Can you see how others are doing through the course of the day or is there no competition element to it. ? T

5:51 am

Scrabbler

Mulder & Scully are ready to tkae this on--the X-files in cyberspace.

5:52 am

Haz1558

herin - there is no competition element, unless people declare how they are getting along.

5:52 am

lizmac

The grid's fine, taking words etc, but the clue page is all to pot.

5:52 am

herin

Ok thanks just wondered if at the end of the game they showed how every one had done

5:52 am

Scrabbler

I have played Scrabulous. I also have the Scrabble CD-ROM and play against "Maven" who can be set at various levels of difficulty

5:52 am

Haz1558

The game lasts for 24 hours so people come and go throughout the time zones. Some are finishing as others are beginning.

5:53 am

LoriP

LOL pink. Is this a different and new herin?

5:53 am

herin

I have caused a kerfuffle i think. My handle has always been herin but I didnt know someone else was using it on this site.

5:53 am

Scrabbler

Herin--everyone's ultimate goal is to find all of the words for that day's grid. With big grids or busy days each preson may just do what they want to.

5:53 am

herin

I hope I havent offended anyone

5:54 am

Haz1558

A different one, Lori. There's a herinfernalady still.

5:54 am

FMitch

Morning all, just popping to for a quick hello between phone calls

5:54 am

Scrabbler

You can ask Dr_God to change your handle-e-mail him--or register with a different name.

5:54 am

herin

I think I caused the other herinferallady a problem and feel bad about it

5:54 am

Scrabbler

Hi FMitch!

5:55 am

Haz1558

Hello FMitch - busy at work?

5:55 am

Scrabbler

Coffee refill anyone?

5:55 am

herin

Her name is so much longer and different - do you think i should

5:55 am

LoriP

Yake yesterday for example. I gave myself 10 minutes to complete the grid, when in actuality i only got 29 words, and had to go to work and didn't finish until last night.....LOL

5:55 am

Haz1558

herin, I wouldn't worry about it too much, you can always change your name if you want to avoid being confused with her.

5:55 am

FMitch

Hi Scrabbler Happy smiles as lovely sunny day.

Hi Haz, yup, having a good work morning so far :)

5:56 am

Scrabbler

We often shorten people's names when chatting, so we call her herin.

5:57 am

herin

My name is Catherine. I choose Herin bnecause its the middle of my name and there were to many other Catheirnes and Kates and Cathys etc

5:57 am

Haz1558

That's good - we're a bit dull and wet today.

5:57 am

Scrabbler

Herin--you could create another name.

5:57 am

toadandtoadette

one of my cats is making it kind of difficult to play right now

5:57 am

FMitch

Put yourself in the tumble dryer then Haz :)

5:57 am

Scrabbler

Hah, T&T--don't let the cat on the keyboard.

5:58 am

Scrabbler

LOL, FMitch

5:58 am

Haz1558

herin - maybe it would be better to change your name, otherwise when people are talking about herin, you might get confused with her.

5:58 am

toadandtoadette

he's sitting on my belly, which is big enough already, right between me and the laptop, which is on my knees

5:58 am

LoriP

Okay, have to catch up on chat. That chat freeze dilemma is becoming really annoying.

5:59 am

Haz1558

I'd better choose a cool setting on the tumble dryer, if I shrink any more, I'll be too small!

5:59 am

lizmac

Think I'll try later as this is getting too frustrating, keep repeating myself!!

5:59 am

Scrabbler

The Incredible Shrinking Woman! Hey, I should put myself in the dryer. I need to shrink

5:59 am

Haz1558

I hope it gets resolved, liz, and maybe see you later.

6:00 am

Scrabbler

Poor Liz!

6:00 am

LoriP

G'd morning Liz, t&T

6:00 am

Haz1558

Knowing me, I'd shrink in height rather than in the places I want.

6:00 am

toadandtoadette

haha haz

6:00 am

LoriP

Herin, welcome aboard. No kerfuffle at all. it was just for my own still groggy, not enough coffee yet brain. :)

6:01 am

LoriP

Plus, chat freezes on me and takes minutes to resolve, which leaves me waaay behind on chatting.

6:01 am

lizmac

I always think it would be handy if you could melt fat by leaning against a radiator. It SHOULD work, if you put a pack of lard on the radiator....

6:01 am

toadandtoadette

how can there be 107 4-letter words! I can only find 58... oh geeze

6:02 am

toadandtoadette

hahaha this cat makes me laugh

6:02 am

lizmac

Anyway, adieu fer nieu.

6:02 am

Scrabbler

we...will...talk...very....slowly...fo
r...you...lori...."

6:02 am

Haz1558

Some method of non-surgical fat redistribution would get my vote.

6:02 am

LoriP

Later liz. Take care

6:03 am

pinkhatlil

bye liz

6:03 am

Haz1558

Bye liz!

6:03 am

LoriP

Scrabbler, if only that would work. Sometimes 5 or 10 minutes go by, with me unable to input in to chat, then whoomp, all the posts hit, and I'm lost.....

6:03 am

toadandtoadette

he's trying to bury his nose in my arm... I try to tell him it will only go so far

6:04 am

Scrabbler

Too bad I am a Muggle. I would like to take a wand from Ollivander's, point it at specific parts of my body and say "Adiposis Reductus"

6:04 am

FMitch

Haz, what is that saying about lovely things come in small packages...: )

6:04 am

Scrabbler

Our pets do make our lives wonderful, don't they, Toadette

6:05 am

toadandtoadette

reading HP7 right now. Ollivander is being tortured by Voldermort.. at least that is what Harry saw in a vision

6:05 am

toadandtoadette

only about 100 pages into it right now

6:05 am

LoriP

Oh, and FMitch. i missed you. G'd morning to ya'.

6:05 am

LoriP

Hey, I think I'm a Babble li 5/16!

6:05 am

Scrabbler

I just read that part--am on page 95. I am savoring this book and sad that it is the last one.

6:05 am

FMitch

Lori I missed you too, Hi!

6:06 am

Haz1558

That's true, FMitch, the next time I have to climb on a chair to reach my top kitchen cupboards, I'll remember that!!

6:06 am

toadandtoadette

oh yes Scrabbler. They are my world. my husband bought them for me right before he deployed last time. Hard to think that was almost 3 years ago. now we are going through it again. erg. military life...

6:06 am

toadandtoadette

I've been so tired lately (jetlag and pregnancy) that I haven't been able to stay up to read it

6:07 am

Scrabbler

Insetad of getting totally excited about going away on vacations I get severe separation anxiety over leaving my bunnies.

6:08 am

toadandtoadette

bunnies are so fun. I had a friend in college who snuck one into the dorms and it would follow her around like a dog

6:08 am

Scrabbler

That's what mine do---my little shadows.

6:09 am

FMitch

Are you enjoying the grid Haz?
I't one of the best we have had in a long time, or is that just 'cos the sun is shining *inane grin*

6:09 am

toadandtoadette

both my cats do that, not all the time but most of it

6:09 am

Scrabbler

Hmm, glew is not an acceptable alternate for glue.

6:09 am

Haz1558

I am enjoying the grid, some nice words - almost like a best of babble.

6:10 am

toadandtoadette

how many bunnies do you have?

6:10 am

Haz1558

Has Atalante been on today or is she still colouring?

6:10 am

Scrabbler

I am slowing down at just 84 words....must fight on.

6:11 am

toadandtoadette

I'm at 92

6:11 am

Scrabbler

I have 4, T. One has the downstairs for herself. The males each have their own rooms upstairs. I live alone so I can do that.

6:12 am

toadandtoadette

big house then!

6:12 am

Scrabbler

I am convinced there are just 12 M words, as that is all I can find.

6:12 am

toadandtoadette

that's cool though. we are in a tiny 2 bedroom apartment just off post here. I hate it but oh well

6:13 am

FMitch

No haven't seen Ata yet

6:13 am

Scrabbler

It is temporary, T, remember that, and your husband is a hero, to serve in the military. Please thank him.

6:13 am

toadandtoadette

I do every day!

6:13 am

Haz1558

I want to hear how the spaniel fussage session went.

6:13 am

toadandtoadette

yah, actually we are trying to get moved. we are on the housing list and will hopefully we will get a new place in Oct.

6:14 am

toadandtoadette

just in time for the baby

6:14 am

bichon

what's a spaniel fussage. is there a bichon fussage?

6:14 am

Scrabbler

Sprechst du Deutsch, T?

6:14 am

toadandtoadette

very little... enough to know how to ask if they speak english

6:14 am

toadandtoadette

I know a little more

6:15 am

LoriP

Apaprently I'm a slow learner. I just foolishly answered the phone, and got snookered in to going to work. ***sigh***

6:15 am

Haz1558

I would have thought so, bichon. It's defined as giving attention of the highest degree for the longest time.

6:15 am

bichon

okay, that would never happen with a bichon

6:15 am

Scrabbler

It is not easy to learn a new language as an adult. I am studying Italian and want to go there in the next few yrs.

6:16 am

toadandtoadette

we want to visit there too before we move back to the states

6:16 am

Scrabbler

Lori! Are you a Babble li5,16 or not?

6:16 am

carleekat

good morning all... and yes..i agree scrabs...on the language thing..although the one advantage we as adults have is...we CHOOSE to learn it rather then it being foisted upon us when we have no interest as a child

6:16 am

LoriP

I'm verklempt. Snivelling in to my coffee now......

6:17 am

pinkhatlil

hi carlee

6:17 am

LoriP

G'd morning carlee!

6:17 am

toadandtoadette

I agree with that too carlee

6:17 am

toadandtoadette

and hello carlee

6:17 am

carleekat

( since have been taking written and oral arabic... I can attest to that...with a foreign alphabet to boot )

6:17 am

Haz1558

Nothing lends urgency to the learning of a language more than the need to be able to ask where the toilets are.

6:18 am

toadandtoadette

WC in German (Wasser Closet, W said like a V) and bano in spanish

6:18 am

Scrabbler

I asked the travel company if we could take a brief visit of our own, separate from the tour group, to the village in Sicily where my grandfather grew up, for example, while the tour group stays overnight for 2 nights in Messina or Taormina. The response was: tourists should not travel on their own in Sicily. Got me scared.

6:18 am

toadandtoadette

or just jump up and down doing the potty dance and they'll get it

6:18 am

Scrabbler

I agree, carlee, but still I hate verb conjugations.

6:19 am

LoriP

Well, off i go, pouting the whole way there. Have a great day everyone!

6:19 am

toadandtoadette

nah, you'll be fine. just don't draw attention to yourself.

6:19 am

Haz1558

Nevertheless, learn them, Scrabbler. It will all make sense eventually.

6:19 am

orionova

Scrabbler, what is the name of the village?

6:19 am

Scrabbler

Bye, Lori.

6:19 am

toadandtoadette

don't live in fear its what the bad guys want us to do. Yes we should be cautious, but it shouldn't ruin your life

6:19 am

toadandtoadette

bye lori

6:19 am

carleekat

take care lori....

6:19 am

Scrabbler

In Gualtieri Sacamina.

6:21 am

orionova

I live in West Virginia now, but I used to live in the UK.

6:21 am

Scrabbler

**having a hot flash and removing the sweatshirt**

6:21 am

FMitch

Time for me to leave too, 1st task done and ready to put in the post 4 hours ahead of schedule. Might play hookie for an hour or so as it is so nic eout. Happy Babbling, see you later :)

6:22 am

toadandtoadette

6:22 am

Scrabbler

Bye, Fmitch, enjoy the day.

pinkhatlil

toadandtoadette

6:22 am

Scrabbler

And I must have breakfast, shower and go to work....WAHHHH

6:23 am

Scrabbler

Yes, T, I am going outside to fetch the newspaper at the end of the driveway, so I will cool off!

Scrabbler

Bye everyone. Enjoy the day!

6:24 am

Haz1558

Well, if you're all going to bale out, I might as well head off as well. Dogs to walk.

6:24 am

pinkhatlil

Guten Ttag, Scrabbler.....wie geht's? :-)

6:27 am

MikeyInBerlin

Scrabbler: Tchuess! (if you don't have an umlauted 'u', but of course you can't use any of our special characters or punctuation here.....won't work) :-/

6:29 am

orionova

You mean this? Ã¼

6:29 am

MikeyInBerlin

Ja; but when i do that, it comes out as a ? for some reason!!! :-/

6:29 am

orionova

There is a plug in you can get for Firefox that will do special characters for you.

6:29 am

MikeyInBerlin

Trying again: Ã¼

6:30 am

orionova

Looks good here.

6:30 am

MikeyInBerlin

Oh; what do you know.....that's working now! :-o

6:30 am

inge

did this game move to anothr country? Would anyone not knowing German raise their hand please

6:30 am

MikeyInBerlin

Hmm; maybe it wasn't all umlauted characters.....or, it could've just been our quotation marks it didn't like, but i know i've had problems on here with some other characters, too! :-/

6:30 am

orionova

I don't know German, but I'd like to.

6:31 am

MikeyInBerlin

Very funny, Inge; as if you have any trouble with it! :-Ã¾

6:32 am

MikeyInBerlin

Inge; you're not a little green froggy anymore.....i hardly recognised you! :-/

6:32 am

toadandtoadette

inge... I live here and I don't know the language that well. The first few weeks I lived here I felt the need to speak Spanish, which I also know very little of

6:32 am

carleekat

6:33 am

pinkhatlil

bye bye all must be off now, have a good day all!!!

6:36 am

MikeyInBerlin

Oh ja, orionova? :-) Same for me, yesterday.....

6:38 am

orionova

It felt a little strange at first. I couldn't quite remember how it all worked. But now, I have 60 left to find, so I feel pretty good.

Hi Haz
Did you and Spangle have a good walk?

9:07 am

Haz1558

Yes, thanks - the rain has dried up nicely.

9:07 am

Haz1558

In fact, the sun is shining so an afternoon walk will be in order as well.

9:07 am

Haz1558

Did you enjoy your time out?

9:08 am

Scarlet

Good morning, Haz, FMitch and all. 'Tis a glorious day in our corner of the world!

9:08 am

FMitch

oh lovely, I keep thinking I should find someone locally that needs their dog walking as I would enjoy that so much.
Isn't it this month you are going to Edinburgh?

9:09 am

FMitch

Greetings Scarlet

9:09 am

Haz1558

Hello Scarlet! Yes, we're heading across in just over a fortnight's time.

9:09 am

Scarlet

9:09 am

Haz1558

You're sounding very cheerful, Scarlet! I think you'll enjoy this grid as well.

9:09 am

FMitch

Can't you shanghi hubby and head south after?

9:10 am

Scarlet

This is a very lovely grid, Haz... I am loving the twisty discoveries as I mooch along...

9:10 am

Haz1558

Leave him stranded, you mean?

9:10 am

FMitch

No kidnap him and give him no option

9:11 am

Haz1558

Have you seen the size of him?

9:11 am

FMitch

Yes, I have, but did forget that particular aspect :)

9:12 am

Haz1558

I was in the butcher's the other day - and was greeted with 'Oh good, Hazel, you're still standing.' Apparently husband had been in to get his knife sharpened and they were fearing the worst!

9:12 am

Haz1558

Or should that be, I'm not sure why not?

9:16 am

Madi95

i love your icon haz

9:16 am

Scarlet

Many months ago, Haz, you told me that I would eventually find the odd and the improbable words... and I, resigned that that was impossible, listened to my interior voice naysaying your statement.... have found that Babblets are much easier to uncover and move on! You were correct... and have evermore become my Babblemuse! :-)

9:16 am

Haz1558

I love my icon as well - she's great fun!

9:16 am

FMitch

Ah Scarlet the light has dawned!

9:17 am

Haz1558

That's good to hear, Scarlet. I find that the strange words do lodge somewhere in the brain.

9:17 am

Haz1558

Back to the grindstone already, FMitch? See you later!

9:20 am

Scarlet

FM... what is "scrummy"?

9:20 am

Haz1558

Scrummy - short for scrumptious.

9:20 am

FMitch

yummy, tasty, delicious etc etc :)

9:20 am

Madi95

I have to go babblers. I need to go outside and feed the dogs. I'll be back here later. tata for now!

9:21 am

shdybr8

love the British slang

9:21 am

hetty

I'd say i's portmanteau for scrumptious and yummy

9:21 am

Haz1558

Bye for now Madi.

9:21 am

shdybr8

see ya madi

9:21 am

Scarlet

Thank you, FM... it sounds like an American slang term for "crummy" which is the direct opposite meaning!

9:21 am

hetty

too bad it sounds like a rugger ploy

9:21 am

flosey

ooh, daughter just signed in, bbl

9:22 am

Scarlet

I know "scrum"... but, live and learn everyday. I loved the term FMitch used several weeks ago... "stair rodding" to describe the rain...

9:23 am

Scarlet

Until another time, Madi.

9:23 am

Haz1558

Yes, that stair rodding was pretty descriptive.

Peri knows my innermost secret: I am blue/white. I am the whitest person in Asheville, and everyone else has such a lovely golden patina to their skins.. so, a not-too-bright idea came to me to try a tan in a tube product. I overdid it, apparently, and became an overripe pumpkin color for several days, shdy!

I take it you had even more orange patches on knees, elbows and ankles?

9:32 am

BerniceQ

haz, about the ME 8, i have ME 6/27, but i can' t put the adverb ending on it. where am i going wrong?

9:32 am

Uneaixoise

bernice, use the Brit spelling of me6

9:33 am

BerniceQ

ah

9:33 am

Scarlet

Well, Haz, in the interest of full disclosure, the thicker skin on those areas turned a dirty brown... It's 85 degrees outside and I'm covered from head to toe.!

9:33 am

BerniceQ

thanks, une

9:33 am

Haz1558

Bernice, there are two spellings of the less than generous me6, switch the last two letters.

9:33 am

Uneaixoise

it was 90 degrees here at 7:30 last nite . . . ack!

9:33 am

Scarlet

Oh, shdy... I could never expose myself to the sun. What SPF do you use to protect yourself?

9:34 am

Haz1558

I knew it, Scarlet. My similarly white daughter keeps trying to go golden. Much the same result, especially on the areas mentioned.

9:34 am

shdybr8

I will use 30 or so, slathered on about every half hour

9:34 am

shdybr8

they say spf means you can spend that many times more in the sun, with none i'm good for about 2 minutes, lol

9:35 am

o-o

I have found that the best sun screen for me is a parka and waders

9:35 am

Scarlet

Haz, I even used "Comet", a bleach-infused cleanser, to scrub the affected areas. I have since found a soy-based product which is a kinder, gentler tone enhancer!

9:35 am

shdybr8

i also have rosacea, so am red in the face even inside, put me on a boat on the ocean....... you get the picture

9:36 am

shdybr8

lol, br

9:36 am

ohmygod, you scrubbed your skin with Comet?!

9:36 am

Scarlet

LOL... Good morning, BabbleRabble-rouser! How are you feeling these days?

9:36 am

Haz1558

It's just not worth the hassle, Scarlet. Just stay pale and interesting.

9:36 am

Uneaixoise

terrific solution, BR!! LOL

9:36 am

9:36 am

Just the ankles, elbows and knees, Une... Stupid is as stupid does... LOL

NonoNanette

Scarlet, i've made the same huge mistake years ago..... i thought all that stuff was improved now so as not to turn you orange

Haz1558

You're welcome (sorry to mention the dear people)

9:46 am

Scarlet

LOL, Nono... I am akin to an albino, so I guess my skin reacted strongly to the "stuff"... but, now, I am returning to "cave fish" , as Une said...

9:47 am

NonoNanette

i never burned as a kid but the older i get the faster i turn red so sun block is a must now

9:49 am

Scarlet

I can't stand putting sunblock on...it makes me clammy and itchy and greasy... so, I just avoid the direct sun. I garden in the early morning and later, after the long rays have gone over the yardarm.

9:50 am

Judi

Morning, kids. Ha ha. Cave fish. Uhg. Me pale face too.

9:50 am

BerniceQ

can someone help me with the second Y? i have YE 4/6.

Hi, Judi. Another terminally white person... LOL

Good morning all. Sure you can see the glow from my white legs across the world!

It's true. And I have no rythym either.

Yet another!! LOL. Hi, Shellyr!

Hi Shelly

When I was in Mexico on vacation, a woman said I wasn't pale, I was transparent.

9:51 am

BerniceQ

thanks, haz. what kind of word is that???

9:51 am

Judi

Lol, Jellen. Now that's WHITE!

9:52 am

Haz1558

You may well ask, Bernice.

9:52 am

Scarlet

LOL, Jellen... that seems to be most of us today.

9:52 am

Shelleyr

I have discovered a good sunless tanner for the face though - Dove. Use it every day as a moisturizer. No orange! No streaks!

9:52 am

BerniceQ

oh, and i hate using sunblock on my face, but keils has a great moisturizer that has 15 spf in it, so i don't have to.

9:53 am

Scarlet

Yes, I am using Dove now, too, Shelly. The "Energy Glow" is much nicer to me.

9:53 am

amelu0218

I call myself "fish-belly-white"... You can see my veins through my skin so well that I should have been the model for the circulatory system that they put in the encyclopedia! LOL!

9:53 am

Shelleyr

Yup, that's the one. The energy glow for the body is pretty nice too. Very gradual

9:54 am

shdybr8

hmmm, funny that all us pale people are inside on a computer, now isn't it?

9:54 am

NonoNanette

its the place to be shdy!!

Scarlet

Good one, shdy! LOL. Perfect, amelu!

9:54 am

shdybr8

oh, i fully agree!

9:55 am

Jellen

The out-of-doors is not my natural environment.

9:55 am

Scarlet

Neither is the water, for me. I am a land mammal, not an otter.

9:55 am

Cave fish live in caves - we live in cubicles.

9:55 am

I concur, Scarlet.

9:56 am

Jellen

Help with ro 7/40, please?

9:57 am

Judi

Yes, insects find me delicious as well. Hubby can be out for hours and never get bitten.

9:57 am

shdybr8

like being on a boat on the water, but no worry of sharks for me, i will die of a heart attack within seconds of actually being in the water...there has been some speculation among family friends that i may actually be able to walk on it out of fear alone

Your guys had a spectacular evening last night, GoB! And, you have built a great team with Mark T!!

GoBraves

thanks all, and happy hunting

10:00 am

shdybr8

lmao, judi, those little brookie trout are very aggressive!

10:00 am

Haz1558

Just when you thought it was safe to paddle in a mountain stream......

10:00 am

Scarlet

LOL, shdy. You may be right, Judi...

10:01 am

Jellen

I can wade, shdy, but that's it for my comfort level.

10:01 am

Scarlet

I will not relate my up close and personal story about the South American piranhas, then, folks. Needless to say, mudpuddles intimidate me...

10:02 am

Haz1558

They say they go for pale faces, Scarlet.

10:02 am

Judi

Pale faces with toe jam.

10:02 am

Scarlet

You are absolutely cutting, friend Haz! LOL

10:03 am

Haz1558

Not quite as sharp as those little critters, but you get the drift!

10:03 am

Scarlet

And more, Haz... LOL. I'm still laughing... Judi, you're in on this, aren't you!?

10:04 am

Haz1558

It's a conspiracy. Call in the Warren Commission.

Any Sweeny Todds in your cubicle, Judi?

10:11 am

Haz1558

Production can begin.

10:11 am

Aloyisius

duh.. what is a Sweeny Todd?

10:11 am

Haz1558

Sweeny Todd was a barber who did a lot more than cut hair.

10:12 am

Aloyisius

lol... gotcha

10:12 am

Scarlet

LOL...

10:12 am

Judi

Don't think so Scarlet. All I know is they're green and like the flourescent lights.

10:13 am

Takuma Sato

you could even say Sweeny Todd was a barber who cut a lot more than hair

10:13 am

Haz1558

Did the expression 'heads will roll' originate with the said barber?

10:13 am

Scarlet

Gosh, there is a grid here. No man-eating flowers then, Judi!? Perfect, Haz. Hi, Takuma Sato.

10:13 am

Takuma Sato

pretty sure not, haz

10:13 am

10:14 am

Takuma Sato

10:14 am

shdybr8

well, that was easy, he had the thing plugged in wrong, fixed it over the phone!

10:15 am

Scarlet

Welcome back, shdytree!

10:15 am

Haz1558

ye4/6 - change the abomiinable snowman's final vowel for a consonant.

10:15 am

shdybr8

ty, scarlet

10:15 am

Haz1558

yt6/24 - y, double the consonant, finish with a female spanish river

10:15 am

Judi

Takuma - the two Y words aren't in anyones vocabulary. They are awful.

10:16 am

Haz1558

See you later, flosey.

10:16 am

Takuma Sato

Ooo -- just realized my icon is a clue for today. I knew if I waited long enough to change it, that it'd show up again

10:16 am

Aloyisius

el6.24 is a pretty word though it means hardened forewings of insects

10:16 am

Takuma Sato

thanks haz!

10:16 am

Haz1558

You're welcome.

10:17 am

Takuma Sato

hrm -- I'd even seen those two 'Y's before

10:17 am

Aloyisius

I guess one wouldn't want to name a girl el6.18 after all

10:18 am

Jellen

Perhaps not, Aloy, although I've heard worse.

10:19 am

Scarlet

Here is a story which demonstrates the diversity and "Huh?" population of Asheville: A developer has purchased some property in the downtown heart of the city. On that parcel is a magnolia tree which he has planned to dig out. To move it would cost $20,000, and the old tree might die from shock if it were relocated. The local Wiccans have decided to draw a line about the tree's impending doom. Friday evening, the Coven Oldenwilde will encircle the tree and chant spells to protect it... as well as "Barbarous Words of Power to thward the developer." Yerrch. The story was in the Asheville Citizen-Times yesterday.

10:19 am

Aloyisius

how about fe5.16 for a name... nope, it is the weekday of a church calendar on which no feast is celebrated.. lol

10:20 am

Likewise, TS. LOL

Wiccan Magnolia and the boogie woogie blues.

10:21 am

10:22 am

Scarlet

It is an ancient tree... the entire coven will do it... I don't know about our first president, Haz... LOL, inge and good morning.

10:22 am

Haz1558

el6/24 - el, then a reworking of what the waiter uses to hold all the plates.

10:22 am

Jellen

Hello, inge

10:23 am

Aloyisius

lovely word, inge.. defined in my post at 10:16

10:23 am

Scarlet

LOL, Judi...

10:23 am

Aloyisius

so, the ancient magnolia is doomed?

10:24 am

shdybr8

do the wiccans float in small mountain streams?

10:24 am

Haz1558

Not if the wiccans have anything to do with it!

10:24 am

Takuma Sato

I would imagine there would be some kind of incendiary protest if any of them floated in water

10:24 am

Judi

Save the tree. Re-locate the Wiccans.

10:25 am

Haz1558

'Don't sit under the magnolia tree with anyone else but me' - I can hear the chorus swelling.

10:25 am

inge

gee. of course, why didnt I think of taht myself!!! tx for the el clue

10:25 am

Scarlet

I am laughing so hard, Takuma and shdy... they haven't been dunked, to the best of my knowledge... Haz, Judi, TS, shdy... I have a sore stomach from your comments...

10:25 am

Aloyisius

I once went to a Wiccan wedding.. it was very very nice.. out in the woods

10:25 am

Scarlet

Hahhahah, J

10:25 am

Takuma Sato

are the developers going to hold a protest, too -- say, a bigger circle of them around the wiccan circle?

10:25 am

shdybr8

anyone else but me.....

10:26 am

shdybr8

anyone else but me.....

10:26 am

Oh, Scarlett/Haz... your words have touched my little old heart...

10:29 am

shdybr8

10:29 am

Scarlet

I am absolutely howling, Haz... LOL

10:29 am

Takuma Sato

10:29 am

Aloyisius

we should form a group called STOMP... save the old magnolia people

10:29 am

Scarlet

LOLOLOLO, Aloy

10:30 am

shdybr8

we could send it to Lickety as a fireworks video!

Just a little bit of soup left Aloy :)

Haz1558

I've always fancied myself as a stomper.

10:30 am

Aloyisius

peri, i haven't stopped thinking of your soup, so i must go get some potatoes today and make some

10:31 am

Judi

Amen. Screw the tree. Pave the world... Wiccans be damned.

10:31 am

Aloyisius

surely you jest, Judi...

10:31 am

Unknown as of this moment, shdy... but if our local television does a shot or two, I will forward the link. LOLOLOL, Judi...

10:31 am

Haz1558

SO much cleaner. All that leaf and flower debris.

Yes. I do. And don't call me Shirley Judi.

God, I'm glad I didn't have to leave! This is too much fun

10:31 am

'Save me, Aloy, save me!'

10:33 am

Aloyisius

absolutely, Haz.. (-:

10:33 am

Judi

Actually, there is a similar controversy going on in my home town in NY - in this case it's about a ginko tree.

10:33 am

Aloyisius

that tree is probably older than me... and that is old!

10:33 am

Scarlet

Why, Aloy... do you have an affinity for doomed magnolia trees?

10:33 am

Scarlet

See you soon, peri.

10:34 am

Haz1558

That's defeatist talk, Scarlet. You haven't given the wiccans a chance to do their stuff.

10:34 am

Aloyisius

i love trees.. why can't they build around it? Workers could lunch in its shade

10:34 am

72 Temple Owl

hey all!

10:34 am

Judi

They want to chop down the 75+ year old ginko to make more parking spots. Complete waste. They don't need the parking and the tree is so lovely.

10:34 am

Lizsark

hiya just nipping in to say hello very quickly

10:34 am

Aloyisius

I like your thinking Aloy

10:35 am

72 Temple Owl

no i'm a bureaucrat.

10:35 am

Scarlet

Hi, Lizsark! Good thoughts, Aloy!

10:35 am

Judi

Problem #2 is, the ginko is starting to die because it's not getting enough water because it's already surrounded by pavement.

10:35 am

Aloyisius

ridiculous, Judi.. tear down Mother Nature, put in a parking lot..

10:35 am

Scarlet

LOL, TO... very good!

10:35 am

Wow! What drug is that and where do I get it?

Jacula

What drug's that, shdy??

10:53 am

72 Temple Owl

LOL my thoughts exactly

10:53 am

exactly! it's for restless leg syndrome, so your legs calm down, but....

10:53 am

i think it's called restilin

Just looked it up and, apparently, people are having it injected into their faces in place of Botox as it doesn't paralyse the muscles.

10:55 am

diem

i got over the counter sleeping pills after all the side effects it listed it had May cause drowsiness

10:56 am

Judi

Sounds like a conspiracy by the drug maker. Here's a drug that stops your leg spasms, but you need another drug to counteract the side effects. Brilliant!

10:56 am

Jacula

7:39 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

can you play babble on the porch? (or send a fax from the beach?)

7:39 pm

hurshy

a bridge over the mississippi river

7:39 pm

hurshy

an hour and a half ago

7:39 pm

featherbee

7:40 pm

hurshy

during rush hour

7:40 pm

artisticbeauty

hello everyone

7:40 pm

hurshy

yes at least 2 but they're still working on rescuing, they won't know for awhile

7:40 pm

featherbee

oh no

7:40 pm

evanonut

didn't see hursh, sounds bad
bookie, i CAN babble on the porch, and i live on a beach...of sorts.

7:41 pm

hurshy

there must be more because there were pedestrians and bicyclists and construction workers

7:41 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

ouch, that bridge sounds bad

7:41 pm

hurshy

my friend accepted a tenure-track job at u minn-st paul, i don't know if he moved there yet or not and i can't reach anyone who would know

7:42 pm

hurshy

the bridge they said is near the university

7:42 pm

lbdawger

i'll keep all those folks in my heart. i hope everyone arrives to their destination whole, if not a bit late.

7:43 pm

hurshy

the odds are a zillion to one that he or his wife would have been on it but i am still a little worried

7:43 pm

evanonut

new or old bridge?

7:44 pm

hurshy

30 years old

7:44 pm

evanonut

do they suspect terrorism?

7:44 pm

hurshy

no, it seems to be an engineering accident

7:44 pm

evanonut

30 years, not an old bridge - maybe voldemort was behind it?

7:45 pm

hurshy

they will investigate to make sure, but it doesn't look like terrorism they said

7:45 pm

featherbee

shhh about HP, i'm almost done with it!

7:45 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

sounds like a shoddy bridge that needed fixing, like a lot we have in Michigan. cold weather can damage roads pretty bad

7:45 pm

hurshy

they were doing construction on it

7:45 pm

evanonut

well, i'd contact the ministry of magic

7:45 pm

majmom

ly 6/24 anyone?

7:45 pm

evanonut

8:30 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

once took an online "el-cheapo" myers briggs and got stuck on the first question. questions need to be alittle more specific, IMO

8:31 pm

stidmama

*waiting for feather* I am down to 82...

8:31 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

it was something like : "are you comfortable ina crowd" which is not a yes or no question. what kind of crowd is it? I am comfortable in some and not in others.

8:31 pm

LMC2

All the personality tests diagnose me as both an extreme introvert and an extreme extrovert

8:31 pm

lbdawger

i had to take the mb for my former job. the boss asked me if i cheated cuz i came out intj, and she said i was an e something or other.

8:31 pm

stidmama

oops. now down to 80... -hurry feather hurry- *words are just popping into my head now*

8:31 pm

Here is an idea! Maybe we should babble on the bowl to avoid any bathroom delays. I hate stopping to do my business.Anyway,just thought it was a good idea.

8:32 pm

LMC2

It's supposed to be really rare - funny thing is, my boyfriend had almost the same result.

8:32 pm

stidmama

well like most things of this nature... MyersBriggs is about preferences, not what you actually do. I -can- function most of the time in a crowd, but I hate it... what I did for jobs and what I prefer to be like are usually two different things.

8:33 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

i once took some kind of personality test on a job application and i swear, the person i talked to afterwords looked at me in fear

8:33 pm

Minveryork

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

8:35 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

bubby, do you have the list of clues? click on the tiny green link at the bottom for Lickety's Babble Clues . . . Lickety gives you the first two letters of each word, plus how many letters in the word, plus the word's point value . . . The point value sometimes helps you figure out if you need a word with a high-scoring letter in it, and things like that
