dart - does the to6/27 have anything to do with the to5 above it?

2:41 am

jillibus

it's worse in my profile than on the site

2:42 am

P.J.

hiya Fran,Joes

2:42 am

acelightning

jilli- the profile displays it as ordinary characters

2:42 am

dart001

to 6 is plural of the to 5 above it

2:42 am

Takuma Sato

oh -- that's turkish

2:43 am

Joesdinner

the 6/27?

2:43 am

Takuma Sato

<scrolling back> I think ace is right

2:43 am

dart001

yes

2:43 am

jillibus

whatever, ace, it's incomprehensible, with accents all garbled

2:43 am

acelightning

for some reason, i occasionally get spam in Turkish :-(

2:43 am

jillibus

Thanks, takuma -- can you translate?

2:43 am

JFB

must get some breakfast - bbl

2:43 am

Joesdinner

is it unusual form of plural?

2:43 am

Takuma Sato

for some reason, I keep trying to read turkish

2:44 am

dart001

yes

2:44 am

Takuma Sato

I don't speak turkish, but I can read some. it'll take a bit

2:44 am

acelightning

jilli - FWIW, the picture itself is a diagram for palmistry, linking astrological signs and planets to various parts of the hand

2:44 am

Joesdinner

oh me achin' brain. i'll work on it dart.

2:45 am

dart001

ends in the letters for the country south of canada

2:45 am

jillibus

well, I knew it was some kind of palmistry, but not the usual kind

2:45 am

Joesdinner

thanks. and it has to do with gout. gross.

2:46 am

acelightning

jilli - i've never seen that before either, but i recgnized some of the astrological symbols

2:46 am

Takuma Sato

jilli, I found a bad turkish translator

2:46 am

Takuma Sato

but it'd probably do you better than me

2:46 am

Takuma Sato

it punts on a lot of words

2:46 am

FranMag

i think the to6/27 is actually the singular

2:47 am

Takuma Sato

but gives the gist, better than I could: http://www.stars21.com/translator/turk
ish_to_english.html

2:47 am

FranMag

Hello all--I hit the snooze alarm 5 times and lost valuable Babble time.

5:57 am

5:57 am

NonoNanette

nice clue pink, thanks

5:58 am

icepyro

mornin scrabs

5:58 am

pinkhatlil

yw nono

5:58 am

Scrabbler

I was on-call and got woken up twice for ridiculous reasons which then got me annoyed so then I couldn't fall back to sleep and now I am tired. Waaahh. That completes my whining session for the day.

6:00 am

bichon

Do pediatricians get awoken for a lot of ridiculous reasons?

6:00 am

grantdalgliesh

thanks

6:00 am

pinkhatlil

poor you scrabbler!!!

6:01 am

Scrabbler

Yes, because so many people have no common sense or shame. People want an instant fix and do not respect us to think about not waking us up.

6:01 am

movieman

clues for the 8s and the 9 plz

6:01 am

bichon

I don't think I'd do that at night, but I probably put in a lot of panicked calls

6:02 am

Scrabbler

One call was about lice! The other was a request for a prescription at 2:30 AM!!

6:02 am

bichon

Lice at night. That's really lousy

6:03 am

icepyro

you should call them back now theat they are probably asleep

6:03 am

Scrabbler

Good one, bichon!!

6:03 am

lynxxx

co7&8 if you are co*f**** by this clue its because you need to change the f for another cons

6:03 am

icepyro

"Oh I am sorry i was asleep and not thinking, i just wanted to follow up on the call"

6:04 am

Scrabbler

I am going to call back Lice Mom and educate her about what on-call phone calls are about---emergencies.

6:04 am

pinkhatlil

ta8 you turn this and water comes out + the white ***** (presidents home)

6:04 am

bichon

thanks Scrab. I get most of my puns after I first wake up

6:04 am

Scrabbler

I like that, icepyro

6:05 am

Scrabbler

I love grids like these in which I keep seeing words---I like finding little treasures everywhere I look.

6:06 am

lynxxx

te8 popular in Japan - and see Pinks clue for the ta8 as is similar

6:06 am

icepyro

lots o compound words

6:06 am

pinkhatlil

te8 *** or coffee + the white *****

6:07 am

Scrabbler

And here comes Bunny Callie, hopping in the room after finishing her salad.

6:08 am

bichon

ap 7?

6:09 am

icepyro

I think if you take out all the past tense/plural and all the compound words, this grid would be like 75 words .. at least it feels that way

6:09 am

lynxxx

Get tr7.40 which is similar to the Tr**** of Capricorn with an addit letter - preface with eu for the 9

6:09 am

bichon

Bunnies must be a relief after Lice Mom. No complaints or nighttime calls

6:10 am

lynxxx

ap7 ap + pat***** is someone to feel sorry for or who is useless

6:10 am

bichon

ty lynxx

6:11 am

Scrabbler

I LOVE my bunnies---so simple to please and they let me snuggle them up.

6:11 am

Scrabbler

lynxxx--where does that added letter go for tr7?

6:11 am

icepyro

my mom used to have a bunny... do you know how many phone cords I had to replace?

6:12 am

lynxxx

after the 4th letter of the tr word

6:12 am

Scrabbler

And cords for alarm clocks, lamps, etc...they are chewing machines.

6:13 am

lynxxx

BBL - dinnertime - even if it is nearly midnight

6:13 am

Scrabbler

TY, lynxxx--I found tr7 and eu9!

6:13 am

icepyro

ms flops seemed to know the difference between power and unpowered wires ironically (and thankfully) enough

6:14 am

pinkhatlil

lol lynxxx enjoy!

6:14 am

movieman

later, lynxxx

6:14 am

icepyro

50 to go... and my brain is dead enough Im having a hard time but awake enough it wont let me stop =\

6:15 am

NonoNanette

time for breakfast bbl

6:15 am

bichon

when my bichons were puppies, they chewed on the woodwork and wallpaper. I have one left and he doesn't have enough teeth left

6:17 am

Scrabbler

I have lots of woodwork damage from my bunnies and I have been repairing it lately. I told Callie, "You are 7 now, so no more chewing."

6:18 am

Scrabbler

150 to go for me, icepyro.

6:18 am

Haz1558

Good morning/evening all. Scrabbler, I read about your experience with unnecessary calls - our theory is that people think you are sitting awake, waiting on their call. They don't think that you could possibly need sleep. Or maybe they just don't think.

6:21 am

Scrabbler

Yes, Hazel. I have had some parents say, "Can you check her chart there, to see what medicine she is on?" And I want to say, "Of course, let me get out of my sleeping bag here in the Winnie-the-Pooh exam room and I will go pull her chart and do a complete review right now at 2:30AM."

6:21 am

icepyro

how do you manage not to say that lol

6:22 am

Scrabbler

Hazel, common sense is not so common anymore. Civility is dead. And there is no shame anymore. People arrive 30 min late for an appt, do not apologize, but, rather, scream and demand that their child be seen.

6:22 am

Haz1558

A colleague once had a request to check that a patient was sleeping. As if someone arriving into the surgery wasn't going to waken the dog up.

6:22 am

Dorens

sleeping bag? no, scrab. you do not sleep. you are not a human. you are sitting at the desk waiting for their calls

6:22 am

icepyro

I think id at least ask what time it is

6:23 am

Scrabbler

Because, icepyro, in customer service, the customer is always right....NOT, but my boss, Richard Head, always pleases the parents.

6:23 am

Dorens

is it possible to educate patients on what constitutes an emergency somewhere at the beginning of the relationship? proactive, so to speak

6:23 am

Scrabbler

You are so right, Doren. Haha

6:23 am

icepyro

heh make him be on call then ;)

6:24 am

Scrabbler

I tried that, Doren. I made a list of what IS an emergency and what is not, but Richard didn't like that. He doesn't want to set limits on the parents.

6:25 am

Dorens

and you really need to work for Richard? you can't set up a practice with one or two more like-minded md's?

6:25 am

Scrabbler

He wants to please the parents so that they love him. He is a sicko egomaniacal narcissist, as you know from my previous rants.

6:26 am

SaddySolar

50 more to go

6:26 am

pinkhatlil

he sounds like an a**ehole scrabbler!!!

6:26 am

Dorens

(oh scrabbler, that reminds me. jeremy was offered a position at Yale as a professor in history of medicine!)

6:26 am

icepyro

again if my boss did not set what is acceptable to be on call policy, hed better be on call.... oh wait, he is and thats why there is a policy

6:26 am

SaddySolar

lets all put our hands together and pray we get a bite sized grid tomorrow

6:26 am

Scrabbler

I have explored other options but it is tough to make a change. I may speak to some people soon.

6:26 am

movieman

I think the name of Scrabbler's boss is some sort of clue as to what kind of person he is......

6:27 am

Dorens

no saddy, sorry, but I'm enjoying this.. about 100 words popped out at me within 20 minutes

6:27 am

Scrabbler

Yippee for Jeremy!! I interviewed at Yale for my residency.

6:27 am

Haz1558

This is just a nice-sized grid, I think.

6:27 am

Dorens

yes movieman you're right there

6:27 am

Scrabbler

Ask Jeremy if he knows Doug Bacon---an anesthesiologist that then got a PhD in the History of Medicine.

6:28 am

Dorens

of course, he's still hoping something will work out at harvard... it would be nice if they could stay in cambridge

6:28 am

icepyro

I like big grids, but the s and ds are close enough its kinda annoying to try all the past tenses and plurals

6:28 am

Scrabbler

Hazel, I am enjoying finding words easily, unlike the last few small toughies.

6:28 am

Dorens

he might well... when did he get the phd? (j got his in 2005) it's a small area tho, history of med

6:28 am

pinkhatlil

fireworks!!

6:29 am

Haz1558

I agree, Scrabbler, lots of normal words and a flow to the finding.

6:29 am

Dorens

yay pink

6:29 am

Haz1558

Congratulations pink.

6:29 am

Scrabbler

Oh, dear, I have to get ready for work. I need an early start because we got a lot of snow in the last day. It is beautiful.

6:29 am

Scrabbler

Yahooo Pink--good for you!

6:29 am

Haz1558

Travel safely, Scrabbler.

6:29 am

movieman

congrats pink

6:30 am

Dorens

6:30 am

Congrats Pink :-)

6:30 am

KatieMcG

Mari are you there?

6:31 am

pinkhatlil

bye all have a good day!!

6:33 am

Scrabbler

No, Pink--I maintain low expectations so as to no longer be shocked or disappointed. (I can never leave when I say I am leaving..."Just one more word.")

6:36 am

Haz1558

Then the one more, appropriate word, might be ci4/5?

6:36 am

icepyro

lol haz

6:37 am

Haz1558

I'm sure Scrabbler, with her Italian roots, already has it, though!

6:40 am

7:47 am

icepyro

7:48 am

nancethefan

7:48 am

7:48 am

EspritdJean

Nance there is 16 hours left to work on the grid

7:48 am

Uniquity

There aren't any rounds Nance. Babble is a 24 hour grid, it will flip at midnight babble time.

7:48 am

pinkhatlil

the puzzle ends for the day when you complete all 239 words in the grid

7:48 am

elder

Pink and thank you for your kind greetings. How is the course going ?

7:49 am

NonoNanette

at the top of the grid it tells you how much time is left

7:49 am

nancethefan

LOL - can u rotate the board?

7:49 am

NonoNanette

nope

7:49 am

Uniquity

Nope...it just sits like it does, waiting for us to find things

7:49 am

EspritdJean

that would be cool, like in Boggle, but no

7:49 am

NonoNanette

nance if you check the help button above it will explain some things

7:49 am

Check out "help" above the chat for some help, as well as below the grid in "friends of bable" is angelsongs page which is awesome

7:50 am

pinkhatlil

i had a major set back in december, i had to had in my portfolio that was ready to be handed in, then i was struck down with the flu; therefore failing my modules which means i spent 3 months studying for nothing. It looks as if i will have to repeat if my extenuating circumstances aren't excepted. Not a happy bunny

7:52 am

elder

Oh how awful !! They should be able to accept your health reasons for lateness. when will you hear ? did you get a doctors note - it might help.

7:53 am

Uniquity

If you have a docotr's note, I don't see how they could not accept it, Pink.

7:53 am

Uniquity

But if you don't have one, you're quite likely out of luck. Even if they see you with their own eyes, they still need a doc's note.

7:54 am

elder

...as if the course is not hard enough and with raising a little one :)

7:54 am

nancethefan

do u actually play this game 4 16 hours?

7:55 am

LadyNatts

nance, typically we come and go... it saves your word list

7:55 am

pinkhatlil

i have a doctors note, but uni isn't open yet. Im very disappointed to say the least *sigh* i just hope that it will be accepted. *excuse spelling mistake in previous message* it is hard having lil pink elder, but i have to do it, if not for her then for me!

7:55 am

Uniquity

24 are available to you nance, but I doubt anyone does it the full time. You can come and go whenever you choose.

7:55 am

Uniquity

Many people come back after finishing to clue others.

7:55 am

elder

Nance you can play as long as you like -until you have finished in the time a lotted ,or not.

7:56 am

8:12 am

bonkler

thanks again!

8:12 am

KristineNas

They don't have a "toddler" room for those in diapers ??

8:13 am

johnnyrocket

i have 186 left... could be a long day! HA HA

8:13 am

Uniquity

If only she was a boy, you could do the cheerio thing! Umm, rewards seem to work...my cousin gets a dance done for him every time he uses potty!

8:13 am

nancethefan

what do u mean 186 left?

8:14 am

pinkhatlil

no because it is a nursery within the primary school, and they want them toilet trained

8:14 am

johnnyrocket

that is how many words I have left to do.. ha ha

8:14 am

nancethefan

doest it tell u how many words 2 find?

8:14 am

Uniquity

Well, as always, there absolutely WILL be children who are not potty trained. With my brothers, keeping the pressure off but the motivation on worked

8:14 am

johnnyrocket

yes. total words is 239

8:15 am

Uniquity

Nance, if you just joined you should see tile and word stats just below the grid which give you that information

8:15 am

pinkhatlil

lil pink just told me she needed to poo and i got the potty, she wouldn't use it, so i oput her on the toilet and she got scared; so she then ran for her nappy for me to put on

8:15 am

nancethefan

o - thx -now i c it

8:15 am

KristineNas

oh hmm , my son would sit on the potty for hours with about a hundred books that i HAD to read but he wouldn't go regularly until HE was ready. With my youngest , I had her on the potty every 10 minutes

8:16 am

KristineNas

and that took about 3 months !

8:16 am

Uniquity

Lol...The big girl toilet is def. terrifying as they can fall in unless they are huge. Get her to sit on her potty occasionally when she doesn't have to go to get her acquainted

8:16 am

nancethefan

thx 4 helping a newbie

8:16 am

Uniquity

Like Kris said - books.

8:17 am

johnnyrocket

no problem. I was a newbie once too. I did finally go pro

8:17 am

nancethefan

i have 181 2 find - lol

8:17 am

Uniquity

We always help! You

8:18 am

o-o

if the manufacturers built smarter potties at the factory, most of that potty training would not be needed

8:18 am

Uniquity

I despise this keyboard sometimes.

8:18 am

nancethefan

thx - y'all r sweet

8:18 am

Uniquity

Potties that follow you around, just in case?

8:18 am

pinkhatlil

i bought lil pink her potty 3 months ago, i allowed her to walk around nappyless to get used to the idea and i would take into the bathroom with me to show her what big girls do and she isn't having it...maybe she just isn't ready!!

8:19 am

pinkhatlil

i cant stand the cursor pads..

8:19 am

Uniquity

Odds are high, she really isn't, Pink. Two is young usually in my experience. Especially JUST turned two.

8:19 am

KristineNas

She'll let you know when she's ready pink , just bring her to it often

8:19 am

Uniquity

Did she help pick out the potty? Sometimes being in charge of it helps

8:20 am

Uniquity

Remind her...or ask her.

8:20 am

nancethefan

oops - i liked - lol - i have 186 left

8:20 am

Uniquity

I love that. "in my experience". I s'pose you should consider the fact that I am 19 and jsut helped raise younger brothers, rather than my own children.

8:20 am

nancethefan

i lied not liked - lol - i hate my k/b 2

8:22 am

o-o

I just had the potty read the instructions until it was second nature

8:22 am

pinkhatlil

i asked my health visitor what to do because she would take her nappy off, i was told that she is ready. I leave her potty out, she plays with it, she will even sit on it but wont use it, she'd rather get a nappy. My mum didnt have to train my brothers they just automatically did it, and of course, the younger one followed the other. They were easy!

8:23 am

Uniquity

Your Mum was lucky!

8:24 am

pinkhatlil

very!

8:26 am

pinkhatlil

I guess i'd better get dressed its 2:25pm, bbl to clue. Take care all and thanks for the advice!

9:30 am

Scarlet

That is so true, Mom... it is our duty to spread the blessings...

9:30 am

Mom

I think so

9:30 am

Scarlet

((Hugs back)))

9:32 am

Scarlet

Uni, I am sitting here thinking of what horrible crime on earth Lori must have committed against a potholder... ? LOL

9:33 am

Mom

lol Scarlet, do you think she will tell?

9:33 am

Scarlet

I think Uni will keep a closed mouth... it is, after all, her mama who is the felon... LOL

9:33 am

Uniquity

Lol....I s'pose the anticipation might take away the greatness..

9:34 am

Scarlet

I doubt it, Uni... it IS Lori we are discussing...

9:34 am

Uniquity

We have a potholder by the stove that we can use to open/close the drafts withoiut burning ourselves. My darling mother set it on a piece of wood, then proceeded to put that wood in the stove. Smelled it, realized what she did, then let it finish burning and kept it a secret....

9:35 am

Uniquity

Just a "duh" moment. Then she almost did it again with our second one!

9:35 am

Scarlet

Oh, all the poor little orphaned baby potholders left to wonder and worry.... *sob*

9:35 am

Mom

oh bless her heart.

9:36 am

Uniquity

I spent two days thinking I lost it before she 'fessed up

9:36 am

Scarlet

Somehow I intuited that fire had something to do with it... your secret is safe with me, Uni... Oh, am I gonna get her.... >evil grin<

9:38 am

Uniquity

I thoguht it would go nicely with my pot on the head, your daughter's beans and the many people who have washed remotes

9:38 am

Scarlet

I am laughing so hard now... Thank you for the lowdown, Uni...

9:39 am

Scarlet

You cannot imagine how relieved I was to hear from ruru and Lori that they, TOO, have washed their remote controls... I am not alone in my *Neverland* vapor...

9:39 am

Uniquity

Oh, the things that have been done...

9:39 am

Uniquity

Scarlet

I told her that our driveway is frozen solid and covered with snow... so, when they get back to Asheville, (about an hour and a half's ride), it might not be a good idea to come here for Penguin... so, (alas, har, har) I will keep the grandkittie another day... *maniacal laughing now*

10:01 am

Uniquity

Oh, does she live in Asheville anyway?

10:02 am

11:00 am

montreal13

hi peri !

11:00 am

weegee

Hi une, ruru, montreal, peri and anyone I've missed! I'm just over halfway done. Still missing lickety...

11:00 am

periwinkle

am at my friends house in Mass

11:00 am

Uniquity

Lickety is not mac compatible

11:00 am

Uneaixoise

ruru, ha + little veggie consonant + muscle spasm

11:00 am

Joesdinner

not true. i have a mac & use lickety.

11:00 am

montreal13

well look who's here ? hi Uni !

11:00 am

musicmom

Yes it is = I use lickety and a ma

11:00 am

musicmom

mac

11:00 am

Joesdinner

you can copy and paste. super easy.

11:01 am

periwinkle

and I do not know how to minimize

11:01 am

Uniquity

Sorry. Bab expert must be what is not compatible then. Apologies!

11:01 am

montreal13

merci Une !

11:01 am

Uneaixoise

:=D

11:02 am

periwinkle

I do know how to minimize on my own computer, will wait till my friend gets home from work

11:02 am

Joesdinner

sorry uni, didn't mean to jump on you. : )

11:02 am

Joesdinner

why do you have to minimize peri?

11:02 am

periwinkle

so I can open another window and get bj's list and get morewords

11:03 am

musicmom

peri - depending on your browser you can open two tabs. One is lickety and one is babble. then just switch back and forth. New tab command is found under file

11:03 am

Uniquity

Lol! No, I just remember reading somewhere (e-mail from lickety perhaps?) that expert doesn't work on mac and must have muddled it up.

11:03 am

praise2him

musicmom I just read your profile

11:03 am

Joesdinner

oh, never mind...i get it...usu if you put mouse on bottom right corner & hold mouse down, then you can drag the window to change size.

11:03 am

Uniquity

If you use firefox you can have tabs!

11:03 am

musicmom

okay - I'm dense. What is the white*****

11:03 am

praise2him

nice to see a fellow Ohioan on here

11:03 am

camino also will do tabs as will safari

11:03 am

11:04 am

Uneaixoise

white h**** where GW lives

11:04 am

Joesdinner

does that mean if you've paid for babble & you have a mac that lickety no longer works?

11:04 am

musicmom

Hi praise. I used to be around a lot but have just come back recently.

11:04 am

musicmom

DUH - Big smelly fish here. Thanks

11:04 am

Uniquity

Why does Mac have so many different browser options anyway?

11:04 am

musicmom

No Joe - lickety works fine.

11:05 am

Uniquity

Expert is not what you pay for Joes. Expert is something lickety made for his wife which combines the list and the grid in one program. He shares it with us :) The list will work, expert will not. What you pay for is pro.

11:05 am

montreal13

there is also TE8 - coffee or *** + the white *****

11:05 am

musicmom

thanks montreal

11:05 am

EvaNadine

CO7/40 = past tense of another name for a college class

11:07 am

musicmom

peri ci 7 - plural decoders

11:07 am

Uniquity

That happens occasionally, pro or not. Close and reopen, or click refresh babble. Expert always worked for me fine

11:07 am

squrell2

lickety said its probally because im not a pro

11:07 am

musicmom

Thanks for the help everyone -- wouldn't have managed it today with out you and lickety.

1:26 pm

lynxxx

Hi JillF - babble Expert is an extra program that Lickety has written which combines Babble & his Clue List. He will email it to you if you contact him - however he does prefer to provide it to Pro (paidup) players

1:26 pm

lynxxx

Congrats C'nan !!!!

1:26 pm

Uniquity

Babble expert is a program de
signed by lickety for his wife which combines Lickety's list and the grid in one browser.

1:27 pm

Uniquity

Lately he has been refusing it to all non-pros, unfortunately

1:27 pm

1:27 pm

JillF

thanks lynn and uni...i am paid up. why is it better than his list of clues anyway...i am kinda new to this game

1:27 pm

jillibus

The best feature of BabbleExpert is the "Lickety Add" where if you type one word it goes to the list, and more than one word goes to the chat.

1:28 pm

Uniquity

It just puts the list side by side with the grid and allows you to send a word to both at the same time and see both at the same time. Also, there is lickety add!!

1:28 pm

The established trees/fruit are able to resist freezing temps unless the temp is 28 degrees or below for a period of four hours or more.. we squeaked through last year, and I imagine we will make it this year too.. admittedly, some nail-biting...

3:02 pm

Scarlet

It sounds as though it is complicated and worrisome, Aloy... do you use smudgepots, ever?

3:03 pm

stidmama
