MLFAN17

128??? sheesh i only have 58

12:38 am

melonheadjujube

it is a wonderful movie - and not only for kids. i did not realize Miss Potter purchased tracts of the Lake District to be preserved as natural area for the people of England

12:38 am

VolleymomDee

wonder if it is at netflix... you think the movie name is Miss Potter?

12:39 am

MLFAN17

volley yes that is the title

12:39 am

MLFAN17

really melon?

12:39 am

melonheadjujube

yes, it's Miss Potter. it has just a little bit of animation; Miss Potter's drawings come alive for her - very subtle, tho

12:40 am

MLFAN17

melon did you seeing finding neverland?

12:40 am

melonheadjujube

yes, MLFAN. Beatrix potter's life story was inspiring for her independence. She became very wealthy through her work, and used it wisely.

12:40 am

jillibus

Well, I've restarted and see that I've been repeating myself -- sorry -- but my version had stalled and nothing was showing up in chat. Okay now!

1:02 am

moonwoof

Cya Frannie.

1:02 am

Dax

how do i find it on that site

1:03 am

moonwoof

I dont think you really "find" stuff on the site, Dax... But you should ask Fran when she gets back to know for sure.

1:04 am

moonwoof

Part of the point of stumbling is that it's random.

1:04 am

Dax

hehe

1:04 am

Dax

that makes sense

1:04 am

moonwoof

The really nice part,tho, is that the site only has other sites that people have found to be cool.

1:04 am

flosey

1:27 am

sprite

Fran: yes

1:27 am

blueruin

i'm really into singers doing weird things with their voices. i'm a huge regina spektor fan

1:27 am

1:27 am

sprite

1:27 am

blueruin

jeff goldblum has connections

1:28 am

moonwoof

I'm actually all for "voice as an instrument"... But when she does that warble thing it's goosebump time in a bad way. =(

1:28 am

Nef

Hi Fran, blueruin, moonwolf and all. I'm slowly getting my computer back in order; but I don't have much time for babbling these days.

1:28 am

rururocks

Well.. moon.. if we use that logic .. why are the Rolling Stones still on tour?

blueruin

i totally get that, moon. some sounds just aren't pleasent. there's some shrill stuff regina does that i don't like, for instance

1:29 am

blueruin

that's a thought. i love bob dylan and his voice is horrible

1:29 am

moonwoof

I can talk about Richard Thompson or Tom Waits or KD Lang for that ruin, but it's just not Bjork for me.

1:30 am

blueruin

sprite - i have no idea but the thought of a jeff goldblum mafia makes me giggle

1:30 am

blueruin

it would be a bunch of geeks in suits, with dinosaur cufflinks

1:30 am

moonwoof

Because Kieth Richards is a fascinating scientific specimen and it's the only way we can get Britain to share =P

flosey, you're ahead of yourself again!

1:45 am

moonwoof

you sure Jilli? It's all set to go if ya want it. =)

1:45 am

jillibus

sprite, what if you tried using firefox instead of IE?

1:45 am

blueruin

those frying pans are weird, fran

1:45 am

flosey

not really jilli - did have the stamp - 2008 Year of the Rat stamp

1:45 am

sprite

won't make any difference for the babble expert, jilli.

1:46 am

jillibus

That's the one for this grid, flosey

1:46 am

FranMag

okay, this site has food, but only used as art: http://bentobjects.blogspot.com/
very cool

1:46 am

blueruin

i've wondered why babble expert wasn't done in firefox

1:46 am

flosey

changed icon after I finished this puzzle - busy day tomorrow and we'll be late starting too

1:46 am

FranMag

you mean egg molds blue? funny, i have the perfect person to give those to. :-)

1:46 am

moonwoof

Since when is That cool?? food that's Only art sort of defeats pretty food doesnt it?

1:47 am

jillibus

I was able to open the profile but the picture wouldn't show, then chat stalled. Weird.

1:47 am

blueruin

oh wow that's fantastic fran

1:47 am

FranMag

well, i was going to say the site wasn't about food, but then the first image has food in it. i didn't want blue to think i was tormenting her

1:47 am

moonwoof

That's like the "food" they make for commercials and stuff... you look at it and droooolll and then they tell ya it's foam. Blech

1:47 am

sprite

it think making this run on firefox would take a whole series of testing etc.

1:47 am

jillibus

ok, flosey, lol! Just wish I'd been able to see the year of the rat stamp!

1:48 am

moonwoof

What if I Wanted a cheeseburger the size of my bed??

blueruin

POOR CHEESE DOODLE

1:48 am

sprite

you could lie down on it and eat around you, woof

1:48 am

flosey

just for you Jilli - back in a minute

1:48 am

blueruin

sprite - it definitely would, i just wonder why he chose to do it in ie to begin with. you'd have to put in a lot of work either way i'm sure

1:48 am

moonwoof

Exactly... and there are some days where that would be So perfect.

1:48 am

FranMag

i'm sure everyone's felt like a cheese doodle at some time in their life

1:49 am

jillibus

sprite, I'm going to email my icon and its story to you.

phantom word: siesta

flosey

Here it is Jilli

1:49 am

FranMag

ooh, good one ruru

1:49 am

blueruin

probably

1:49 am

moonwoof

I'd guess, blue, that since IE comes standard (i.e. everyone Has it) it makes sense.

1:49 am

sprite

jilli, I love you to bits. Thank you so much!

1:49 am

rururocks

also detested

1:50 am

blueruin

yeah, i suppose. i guess the reason i wonder is because firefox is opensource

1:50 am

blueruin

i thought that would make it easier

1:50 am

blueruin

i am going to have to have this conversation with lickety later

1:50 am

rururocks

2:55 am

bananafour

2:55 am

Merk

2:55 am

Merk

2:56 am

moonwoof

I was going to say it rhymed with Clearasil lol

2:56 am

Merk

2:56 am

moonwoof

2:56 am

Marmar

2:58 am

moonwoof

Cya merk, have a good nite!

2:58 am

Marmar

2:59 am

moonwoof

cheeks arent clues today, just on the brain... and yesterday we had "erect"...

2:59 am

moonwoof

And I was in a hurry.

2:59 am

sprite

lol... would have worked for me

3:00 am

moonwoof

boner was WAY faster than "to put up a skyscraper"...

3:00 am

bananafour

lol

3:00 am

sprite

and beat the hell out of put up a boner the size of a skyscraper

3:01 am

sprite

or would that have been derelict?

3:01 am

moonwoof

Yeah, well the clue was actually "short part of boner"... so that might have been misleading lol

3:02 am

moonwoof

I wasn't going to put "lict" and boner together, but since You have... lol

3:02 am

sprite

I knew I was onto something here

3:03 am

moonwoof

either way... ruru got it and I think a chuckle, so was worth it, but I dont usually bother cluing when Haz is around, her's are good.

3:03 am

sprite

Haz is a great great cluer

3:04 am

sprite

I am hungry, gonna grab a bite and hurry back here with it.

3:04 am

moonwoof

exactly. So yeah. I just couldn't help the cleara*** joke, since I wasn't sure if Fran was back yet, and one of Goldblum's first bits was a zit creme commercial.

3:06 am

moonwoof

Since tonight's theme seems to Actually be "Stamps. Brought to you by the letter Goldbum and the number 3."

3:09 am

3:11 am

sprite

some very unfair business to get through, woof?

3:11 am

moonwoof

Dunno. Seems a Little unlikely, but it's weather.

3:11 am

moonwoof

It Does sound wierd blowing thru the awnings, tho.

3:12 am

sprite

ah, weather. Don't know whether that applies or not.

3:12 am

moonwoof

I think if it was going to be all that bad, someone would have called me. Arent many of us here yet, but we all know each other.

3:12 am

moonwoof

Ha ha =P

3:12 am

sprite

I would check if the phone still works, woof

3:13 am

moonwoof

It does. It's a cell phone. and here we also have a land line. But the cell is working fine.

3:13 am

sprite

in that case, I'd say you are safe

3:14 am

moonwoof

the internet usually goes before the cell...

3:14 am

sprite

famous last words...

3:14 am

moonwoof

Yeah. I think so. Didnt hear anything, like I said.
LOL I suppose.

3:15 am

3:15 am

sprite

*hugs*
Just being my obnoxious self!

3:15 am

3:17 am

Marmar

moonwoof

That and 34th Street and one more, but that's like IT for a month

3:20 am

Never easy, being overdue. Remember THE date is just an average estimation, hun.

3:20 am

moonwoof

It's actually kinda cute, tho... She's Trying to bark at something, but it's coming out in little "mrumph's"

3:21 am

Marmar

Thanks for the warning. I'm taping all my favs so we'll have a reserve.

3:21 am

Marmar

Jakes-mum, just let that little baby out!

3:21 am

jakes-mum

wish my original date had been the official estimation sa that was the 8th so would only have 4 days left before she was made to come :(

3:22 am

moonwoof

Awww. Sorry to hear, Jakes. I'm sure everyone's giving you advice on it huh? I heard "go for a motorcycle ride" so many times in a day it made me cry. (I blame that anyway)

3:22 am

sprite

she'll come when she is good and ready, I guess... *hugs again*

3:22 am

jakes-mum

trying marmar, she just wont leave, hubby thinks the oven door is stuck

3:23 am

Marmar

Ha! Bless you both. She just isn't ready I guess.

3:23 am

moonwoof

If you feel that pull on your ribs, tho Jakes, you know she's grabbed on.

3:23 am

lynxxx

make the most of it JakesMum, do some things you won't be able to do when the baby arrives

3:23 am

jakes-mum

I keep being told to drive down a bumpy road, problem is I ALREADY tried it and it didn't work lol

3:23 am

moonwoof

Have you ever ridden a motorcycle? Riding the back is like that x5

3:23 am

sprite

and some serious sex? That is what I heard might work :)

3:23 am

moonwoof

Especially if you lower the struts...

3:24 am

moonwoof

She Did try that one Sprite lol

3:24 am

jakes-mum

I've already cleaned the house from top to bottom twice, baked a complete cook book, done all the shopping i've run out of things to do!!

3:24 am

Marmar

Moon, I hope you are referring to your suggestion and not Sprites...

3:25 am

sprite

yeah, but I mean NOW, not at the start of the 9 months :)

3:25 am

moonwoof

Uhm, nope, sorry Marmar. Sprites.

3:25 am

bananafour

lol, I thought moon was combining her suggestion with sprites

3:25 am

Marmar

Lord a'mercy!

3:25 am

sprite

well, now there is an idea, nana

3:25 am

moonwoof

Oooo. THAT I bet she hasnt tried! lol

3:25 am

lynxxx

Haircut, manicure, pedicure, restaurant, movies

3:25 am

jakes-mum

I don't think my balance is that good to combine both sprites and moons suggestions lol

3:26 am

Marmar

Jakes-mum, did you happen to ever read "Women's Bodies - Women's Wisdom"?

3:26 am

moonwoof

That's what finally worked for me, tho, Marmar, In the end.

3:26 am

bananafour

lol

3:26 am

sprite

you are the pregnant one. Let HIM take care of balance, lol

3:26 am

moonwoof

Then I recommend Lynxes. A nice relaxing foot bath...

3:26 am

Marmar

That must have been a wild ride Moon.

3:26 am

sprite

good thing about my suggestion is, that if it does not work, you still have a good time ;)

3:26 am

jakes-mum

other problem of course is that hubby does NOT find me at all attractive with this boulder on the front of me

3:26 am

moonwoof

It was actaully lol

3:27 am

moonwoof

If you get the pedicure it might help =)

3:27 am

3:29 am

bananafour

Evening Andree =)

3:43 am

i think the part I hated most was the "I said I have a bladder the size of a P, not I have to P" stage.

3:43 am

jakes-mum

my first was 10 days overdue and had to be forced so i don't hold out much hope for this one to turn up this week

3:43 am

jakes-mum

FranMag

i'll cross my fingers for you jakes-m

3:44 am

FranMag

i have to tell a funny coincidence story

3:44 am

sprite

I am sorry, jakes-mum, that s*cks big time. I really hope she will come naturally, but if not, they won't let you wait that long.

3:44 am

Andree

mum try making an appointment for something you HAVE to do tomorrow and baby may decide you can't keep it

3:44 am

jakes-mum

I did have a lovely ho shower this morning to try and fool her into thinking its as warm out here as it is in there but shes not falling for it

3:44 am

moonwoof

It Was. I still can't think straight.

3:45 am

moonwoof

Spill it Fran!

3:45 am

FranMag

the day i went into labor with my daughter we were having my son's hair cut

3:45 am

FranMag

there was a woman there with a 3 month old baby and an older boy

3:45 am

FranMag

she told us that she went into labor with the baby the last time they had come in for a haircut

3:46 am

FranMag

i laughed and said, "i wish that would happen to me"

3:46 am

jakes-mum

ohhh thats a good idea, what can I plan? dentist is always a good one!

3:46 am

FranMag

(i was 10 days from my due date and hadn't had a single contraction up to that point)

3:46 am

sprite

ohoh

3:46 am

jakes-mum

damn wish I hadn't had jakes hair cut before christmas now

3:47 am

FranMag

an hour after leaving the hair place i started contracting and gave birth 12 hours later!

3:47 am

sprite

omg Fran!

3:47 am

Andree

lol fran

3:47 am

FranMag

how's that for a fun coincidence?

3:48 am

sprite

incredible, and funny!

3:48 am

FranMag

does your husband need a hair cut jakes-mum?

3:48 am

moonwoof

That's a good one lol

3:48 am

jakes-mum

my one big worry of course is that jake only took 6 hours and they say the second is faster, so I could end up on the bathroom floor at this rate (which happened to my sisters friend 2 months ago!!)

3:48 am

Andree

do you need a haircut jakes-mum

3:48 am

moonwoof

Good thing most barbers have tile floors lol

3:49 am

FranMag

that wouldn't be good JM, how far are you from the hospital?

3:49 am

jakes-mum

hubby cuts his hair at home with clippers! Ohh I wonder if it would work if I planned to go see my sister an hour down the road?

3:49 am

jakes-mum

i'm 10 mins from hospital with good traffic

3:49 am

FranMag

that's great!

3:49 am

moonwoof

Prolly not, Jakes... Not quite appointment-like enuf, I would guess/

3:50 am

FranMag

oh yeah, first one was born 5 days before due date the night my husband had a gig

3:50 am

moonwoof

Unless the appointment is to get together w. sister for hair or pedi's or something. Then maybe

3:50 am

jakes-mum

damn, and just realised I have a dentist appointment booked for march already, what else can I plan?

3:50 am

sprite

or go to the movies. It would so embarrassing if your water broke right there... it just might happen +'

3:50 am

FranMag

he had to get a replacement DJ at the last minute

3:51 am

moonwoof

You said you baked the cookbook.. Have people over for dinner.?

3:51 am

Andree

book a facial, at least if there is no movement you can at least enjoy yourself

3:51 am

sprite

lol, how inconsiderate of your son, Fran!

3:51 am

FranMag

:-)

3:51 am

FranMag

walking near water is supposed to work too

3:52 am

moonwoof

Bacon?? EVErything is better with bacon!

3:52 am

jakes-mum

I wouldn't even know where to go for a facial lol, I don't wear makeup, have my nails done or anything

3:52 am

FranMag

there was a walking path back in Guam that several pregnant women claim caused their labor.

3:52 am

sprite

at dark moon, when moon and sun are both at the opposite side of the world and both pull on your waters...

3:52 am

moonwoof

That's why I'm voting foot bath and pedi, myself.

3:52 am

jakes-mum

lol fran I sat in the shower for half an hour this morning and that didn't work

3:52 am

sprite

LOL woof!

3:53 am

moonwoof

try a bath? Maybe if she's floating...

3:53 am

sprite

I think the walking might be the working part of that trick though

3:53 am

FranMag

that's perfect then JM! the baby will come along and put a dent in your first pampering appt.

3:53 am

jakes-mum

no no cant do pedicure!! have a real phobia about my feet! (horror look) can't have anyone touching them

3:54 am

sprite

so make an appointment then, jakes-mum. If you are that scared, you will start contractions just to avoid having to keep it!

3:54 am

moonwoof

Hmmm. Ok, then... Massage. Theraputic massage to work out those Horrible back cramps...

3:54 am

FranMag

good one sprite!

3:54 am

sprite

those recurrring cramps, woof? :P

3:54 am

jakes-mum

I walked round 2 supermarkets on saturday (with the hope that if my waters did break I might get some free nappies) and then around the local pet rehoming centre on sunday

3:54 am

moonwoof

When you're preggers I think so. lol

3:55 am

moonwoof

8 months worth of recurring =P

3:55 am

jakes-mum

now that is a good idea sprite, the shear terror of having to allow someone to touch my feet would make my stomach involutarily contract

3:55 am

sprite

poor jakes-mum. Sounds like you just have to wait it out then. I give you a serious *hug* and wish you good luck and stamina with it.

3:56 am

jakes-mum

ty sprite

3:57 am

moonwoof

You Are almost done, tho, Jakes. That's a good thought.

GRABS HER FEET

3:57 am

jakes-mum

she must be sick of tea by now though as i must drink 20 cups a day for something to do

3:57 am

sprite

ROFLMAO

3:57 am

jakes-mum

no!!!! not the feet!!!

3:57 am

moonwoof

Maybe a good foot tickle would do it!

3:57 am

jakes-mum

(pulls them hastily away and sits on them)

3:58 am

moonwoof

If we All went for your feet I think we could take ya.

3:58 am

jakes-mum

(looks for somewhere to hide from feet grabbers)

3:59 am

FranMag

moon, are you trying to laugh her into labour?

3:59 am

sprite

*puts on innocent face and walks casually towards jakes-mum*

3:59 am

moonwoof

We work with what we got Fran =)

3:59 am

jakes-mum

(runs when sees sprite coming - ok waddles)

3:59 am

sprite

darn, she is faster than I am. Then again... everybody is.

4:00 am

moonwoof

Hmmm. I wonder how we could track down her hubby's email. I bet He'd like my idea.

4:01 am

jakes-mum

even he's not allowed near my feet!

4:01 am

moonwoof

Which is why I bet he'd like my idea lol

4:01 am

jakes-mum

he probably would lol

4:01 am

moonwoof

We'll tickle her outta ya, just like hiccups.

4:02 am

jakes-mum

Thats why I had Jake so he could have someone else to tickle

4:02 am

sprite

lol

4:02 am

moonwoof

Oooo. I bet she'd let Jake near her! We need to recruit, girls.

4:02 am

sprite

what are you going to do with your nick, jakes-mum, if the other little one has arrived?

4:02 am

moonwoof

Seriously, if a good chuckle would help I could tell her what day I had my toupee fiasco

4:02 am

sprite

I am very good with boys. I can talk Jake into it.

4:03 am

FranMag

i guess if we don't see JM for a few days, we'll know why

4:03 am

sprite

yeah Fran, because it worked :D

4:03 am

carra

:)

4:04 am

jakes-mum

not changing it, jake was my 'present' totally unplanned so I will always be jakes-mum. And would love to hear the toupee fiasco!!

4:04 am

moonwoof

OMG, Sprite... I'm REAL bad at saying no to tempations lol

4:07 am

carra

4:08 am

FranMag

some of the apps force you to invite people, i don't like those

hi uni, frances, movie, scrab, pink et al

6:19 am

Scrabbler

Uni--it is my router. Sometimes I have to unnconnect the cable and reconnect with the modem. It is random and I don't know why that happens.

6:19 am

mrpresident

frances, did your BE get sorted?

6:19 am

Angelsong

morning, all.

6:19 am

Scrabbler

Hi Angelsong

6:19 am

You're welcome Scrabs

mrpresident

hi angel!

6:19 am

pinkhatlil

hi frances and angel!!

6:20 am

Scrabbler

LOL, in medicine, BE = barium enema. I hope that is not what you are referring to.

6:20 am

movieman

I get that problem sometimes, scrabs, trouble is, my 'puter's in my bedroom and the router is two floors above!!!!!

6:20 am

Uniquity

Oh, that's power cycling, Scrabbs. Happens to everyone and is incredibly irritating!

6:20 am

Frances

Yes, thank you mrp. I eventually got completely kicked off so left it for a while and then it was OK.

6:20 am

Scrabbler

"power cycling" ....? Yes, it is annoying!!

6:20 am

Frances

Babble expert Scrabs.

6:21 am

mrpresident

i am doing ok thanks... we are packing the house, dismantling all the beds and book shelves and packing away everything! it is becoming very sparce.

6:21 am

Scrabbler

LOL, Frances. I should have thought of Babble Expert.

6:21 am

Scrabbler

Lots of work, mrp!

6:21 am

pinkhatlil

any luck on houses mr p?

6:22 am

Frances

Do you have somewhere to go mrp? Last I heard you were tearing your hair out looking.

6:22 am

mrpresident

oh good, frances, another babbler sent lickety an email saying you felt like you were being left out, so it was a concern to us. Please don't feel lickety ignored you!

6:22 am

Scrabbler

I have to get ready to go---I shall return tonight after a long day at work (1-8). Enjoy the day!

6:22 am

mrpresident

lickety said he did not receive an email from you, so it confused him

6:22 am

Uniquity

Oh, Packing is awfully irritating. Take care Scrabbler!

6:22 am

pinkhatlil

have a good one scrabbler!

6:23 am

mrpresident

bye scrab!

6:23 am

Frances

Scrabs I happened to mention that I had Expert V11 when others were talking about V12 and said I felt a bit left out!

6:23 am

mrpresident

lickety does care and depends on feedback. I am glad it worked out

6:24 am

Scrabbler

Hey, I don't have V12. Mine is v11.

6:25 am

Frances

I know. I think I was feeling a bit sorry for myself that day.

6:25 am

Uniquity

who has v. 12??

6:25 am

pinkhatlil

nor do i scrabbler, your in good company lol

6:25 am

movieman

I've got V.11

6:25 am

mrpresident

lickety didn't send anyone the v12... there were requests for v12 and he sent it to them to test... it is no different to v11 and he is working on v13 for the official release. as some people had requested it to test, he sent it to them

6:26 am

Uniquity

About 4-5 months ago Lickety told me v.12 was nearly ready...that's the closest I have come! :)

6:26 am

mrpresident

only a handful have v12, it was a test... you are not missing out on anything

6:26 am

Frances

Not a problem mrp. As I said, I think I was just having a bad day and feeling sorry for myself.

6:27 am

Uniquity

V. 11 works for me! Except my videos never come up first time around, but Lickety showed me how to get it with a refresh.

6:27 am

mrpresident

v12 was a couple of minor bug fixes and those that asked for it got it to test

6:27 am

movieman

Lunchtime......bbl

6:28 am

mrpresident

oh darling! lickety has had a terrible time fitting in with time management... we are moving and it has been the last thing on his mind.

6:29 am

mrpresident

he sent it mainly to new babblers because he wasn't managing old versions

6:29 am

LoriP

G'd morning babblers! ***Is wearing protective sponge suit, in case a tackling carlee is lurking***

6:29 am

Frances

How is the move going? Do you have somewhere to move to?

6:29 am

Uniquity

There is no readon for it to be on his mind MrP...it still blows my mind that he keeps updating this! Did you get that 3 bed house you mentioned the other day?

6:30 am

mrpresident

hi lori!

6:30 am

Uniquity

Good morning Lori

6:30 am

mrpresident

we did get the house! we are moving in 7 days

6:30 am

LoriP

Hey mrP, glad things turned your way. i knew they would!

6:31 am

mrpresident

frances, i do understand that! I have days like that too! It is nice to have support

6:32 am

Uniquity

That's so exciting Mr P! I am glad you found something you love

6:32 am

mrpresident

we are terribly lucky! it was touch-and-go for a while! I didn't know what we were going to do or where we would end up, so we are grateful

6:32 am

Frances

You got a house! Wonderful news. You must be so excited now.

6:33 am

mrpresident

yes, very exciting and good news! it is a lovely house! right near the school too! it was exactly what we wanted

6:35 am

o-o

when preparation meets opportunity, sometimes good things do happen .... glad it worked out for you, mrp, ma'am

6:35 am

mrpresident

we are in a cul-de-sac with only 10 houses in it! and the kids have to travel 3 short blocks to school!

6:35 am

mrpresident

thanks babrab... we need good things to come to us... it has been a very difficult few years

6:37 am

Frances

That sounds wonderful. Just so sad that you have to leave the beautiful house you are in now. However, I am sure that it will be the start of many good things to come.

6:38 am

mrpresident

it is sad, we are sure it is the right thing to do, and it will be so much easier now. If I get sick again, I have much closer support from the community and the kids can get to and from school. It certainly will be a better situation.

6:40 am

Frances

How is your arm now? I do hope you are seeing some improvement.

6:41 am

mrpresident

yes, it is much better! i have been on new treatment for 37 days now, and even though it has been slow, I notice the improvement. I have 2 months more to go

6:42 am

Frances

Puts my minor ailments into perspective. Such a long time.

6:43 am

mrpresident

the best bit... I have reduced my pain meds by half. I am nearly ready to come off them! It will be a wonderful thing when I am 'back to normal'

6:44 am

o-o

good for you, mrp

6:44 am

Frances

That is such good news. You must have spent the last few months feeling as though you were floating on another planet.

6:45 am

mrpresident

i have been in contact with someone who is on the same meds as me, and I have realised that they affect me so much... I just want to be off them so that i can go back to my self. It is hard to be 'out of mind' at times and it will be wonderful to be me again

6:45 am

Quit 'yer complainin'! The treats in there are wicked good. Man, it's not like a Siberian jail or anything....

6:49 am

mrpresident

one babbler has been in constant contact with me... her husband is in so much pain and dealing with the drugs. I feel for her.
I am in no position to complain compared to his plight

6:49 am

Frances

I left bacon sarnies in there earlier.

6:49 am

pinkhatlil

LOL lori

6:50 am

EspritdJean

lemem see if I've learned anything . . . . sarnies are sandwiches?

6:50 am

Frances

Yes Jean

6:51 am

LoriP

Glad they're not Barnies. Little purple sandwiches don't sound very appealing....

6:51 am

Frances

What are Barnies?

6:51 am

EspritdJean

you have a strange, strange mind Lori

6:51 am

EspritdJean

quite like my own

6:51 am

Frances

Oh - that Barny. Stupid me.

6:51 am

EspritdJean

she was referring to barney the big purple dinosaur

6:52 am

LoriP

Barney the purple dinosaur. Frances, it was a failed attempt at humor...... :) ***sawry***

6:52 am

Frances

Yep. The penny dropped.

6:52 am

pinkhatlil

can someone please offer a clue for the 1st de6/21

6:52 am

EspritdJean

I think SOME people might have thought of slicing him up into sandwiches if they heard his song one more time

Strange sounds so harsh. I prefer eccentric.... :)

Have a great day pink!

6:58 am

LoriP

***great, thanks Esprit, now I'm pondering things I dare not post here...***

6:58 am

mrpresident

that pondering also comes down to upright vacuum vs longneck heads

6:59 am

LoriP

upright !

6:59 am

Jacula

No, cylinder!

6:59 am

Jacula

Hello everyone.:-)

6:59 am

Atalante

no! get someone else to do it for you!

6:59 am

LoriP

G'd morning Jacula. :-)

6:59 am

mrpresident

hi jac!

7:00 am

Frances

cylinder .

7:00 am

LoriP

Ata wins!

7:00 am

o-o

pondering aloud on occasion has lead to others view the problem from the supine

7:00 am

mrpresident

well ata, that costs money

7:00 am

Atalante

thats what husbands are for ..... :P

7:01 am

LoriP

just do what i do, and don't vacuum!

7:01 am

Jacula

Not an option with a houseful of kids and pets, Lori.

7:02 am

mrpresident

there is an option... tell him to leave the money on the tallboy

7:02 am

Atalante

same here, lori

7:02 am

LoriP

I have a housefull of kids and pets. I still avoide vacuuming like the plague....

7:03 am

Atalante

I can't vacuum, my asthma goes haywire. Such a shame

7:03 am

Uniquity

It's true. I make the youngest vacuum occasionally. Then we see a remarkable difference in the colour of the flooring

7:03 am

Jacula

*Pondering whether to find last 22 words or go and clean the rabbit and g/pig hutches.*

7:04 am

Jacula

Ata - you can get a vacuum with a filter for that.

7:04 am

LoriP

Uni knows. I'll be remembered for many things when i die. My housekeeping won't be one of them. At least not in a good way.... :)

7:04 am

mrpresident

i must say goodnight. it is tuesday and we have too much to do tomorrow for me to be 'having fun' here

7:04 am

Uniquity

No you can't Ata, don't listen. Vacuuming is awful.

7:04 am

mrpresident

bye all

7:04 am

Jacula

'Bye, MrP.

7:04 am

LoriP

Sleep tight mrP. Some busy days ahead for you. take care!

7:04 am

Jacula

LOL, Uni.

7:04 am

Uniquity

Good night Mr P! Sleep tight

7:05 am

Frances

Bye mrp. Take care and sleep well.

7:05 am

Uniquity

I learned well from my mother, Jac. I vacuum for my grandmother, and no-one else.

7:05 am

mrpresident

thanks! nite!!

7:05 am

LoriP

uni's not kidding either.....

7:06 am

Atalante

tried that Jac. still end up in hospital after vacuuming!

7:07 am

Jacula

Ata - sounds like you need to change from fitted carpets to that hard flooring with rugs.

7:07 am

LoriP

Save yourself woman! In the name of all that's holy, throw the vacuum out!

7:07 am

Uniquity

Or just get beautiful hardwood flooring all over. No rugs!

7:08 am

Atalante

we've got hardwood floor pretty much everywhere now, and that does make a difference

7:09 am

LoriP

okay, now throw out the brooms and mops, and you've got 'er beat! :-)

7:09 am

Uniquity

No curtains...no sheets, no fabric of any kind

7:09 am

Atalante

it also makes for great amusement when the cat skids from one end of the room to the other on the wood floors

7:09 am

Uniquity

Brooms are okay, just make hobbit do it while you are off being brilliant :)

7:09 am

periwinkle

Hello all

7:09 am

periwinkle

may I have clues for the 8s please

7:09 am

LoriP

G'd morning peri

7:10 am

Atalante

hobbit brushes every time she wiggles while sitting down

7:10 am

Jacula

Perhaps she could make an ice palace like the one in Lapland or Finland, or wherever it is?

7:10 am

Jacula

Hello, peri.

7:10 am

periwinkle

jus read part of the log, what is this vacuuming you speak of

7:10 am

Uniquity

I'm sure she does that a lot, if she is anything like the spaniel I know. Hopefully she is more intelligent though

7:10 am

periwinkle

lve your icon Jac

7:10 am

LoriP

the 8's are alle xtensions of the 6's

7:10 am

Jacula

Thanks, peri. It's a nice stamp. It's cheeky.

7:10 am

Atalante

what is this "intelligence" and "spaniels"?

7:10 am

LoriP

de 6, to sense or find

7:11 am

periwinkle

which 6's would that be?

7:11 am

LoriP

de 6, the devil is in the de****s

7:11 am

LoriP

di 6, Reader's Di**** the magazine

7:11 am

inge

da

7:11 am

inge

ea

7:11 am

Uniquity

The one I unfortunately know is an expensive (theoretical) purebred. So ncredibly unintelligent that I don't like the breed....she's ruined me for life

7:12 am

periwinkle

found de8/55 thanks

7:12 am

periwinkle

got di8/60 thanks

7:12 am

LoriP

G'd morning inge? :-)

7:12 am

Atalante

learn from Hobbit and Spangle - they are proper spaniels :D

7:13 am

periwinkle

are there two de8

7:13 am

Uniquity

They're awfully far away though! Maybe it depends which side of the planet you are on

7:13 am

LoriP

my bad peri, hang on, i screwed up

7:13 am

periwinkle

found a de7

7:13 am

LoriP

de 6, to hate, then extend

7:13 am

periwinkle

thanks Lori, got all the 8's now

7:14 am

LoriP

that should give you 3 8's.

7:14 am

Atalante

english spaniels tend to be nicer than american ones. that's not being dog racist LOL but the English breeds are less bred, and thus are more normal

7:14 am

Uniquity

Much better Lori. I wasn't getting anywhere with the devil ;)

7:14 am

LoriP

So sorry about that all. My apologies.

7:14 am

periwinkle

I'll let you slide this time Lori, since we both don't like to vacuum :-)

7:14 am

Uniquity

That'll do it. This one is too "pure" for me...I am not a fan of purebred animals

7:14 am

GobiasIndustries

i'm confused, are there 2 de8s? i have the one about hate

7:15 am

LoriP

lol vacuuming is highly overrated, along with housework in general.

7:15 am

Frances

Yes de8 x2

7:15 am

GobiasIndustries

ooh i just found it!

7:15 am

periwinkle

totally agree with you Lori re housework, I do it rarely

7:15 am

LoriP

yes Gob, then de 8/55, to sense, thene tend for the 8

7:15 am

Atalante

yeah .... the few American cockers I know aren't much fun. They are always ill, always grumpy. English cockers and springers *tend* to be much nicer and more your normal dog-about-the-house

7:15 am

GobiasIndustries

thank you all :-)

7:16 am

periwinkle

we were supposed to get snow but didn't Yay!!

7:16 am

LoriP

I'm with peri. I do the least I have to do, and I'm good with that!

7:16 am

Uniquity

Can yours lay on it's back legs like a normal dog? Sadie has to stick them out behind her to sleep as she can't bend them properly. i don't know if it is a breeding thing, or just the way she is.

7:16 am

Atalante

(though Une's spaniels always look gorgeous and well-centered)

7:16 am

LoriP

The storm is s'posed to arrive here any time now. :(

7:18 am

Atalante

ick, yes, spaniels are prone to hip problems. again, I think its generally more pronounced in the American breeds (I'm well over-simplifying millions of dogs here, but hey). Hobbit's actually got slight hip problems, but very slight, and she can't lay with both of her back legs out behind her! She can get one there, but not both. Poor babe

7:20 am

Uniquity

Sounds kinda painful. I would not like to be born like that. I think that ends my cross-examination for the day, I just always wondered and her owner is a bit nutso about her. Not that it's a bad thing, but she doesn't even attempt to teach her to be a "good" dog.

7:20 am

LoriP

***pushy little kid, ain't she?*** :)

7:21 am

Atalante

I could happily murder a lot of cocker breeders from the present and past. they screwed up the breed royally trying to make them ever prettier

7:21 am

Atalante

hobbit is from working stock, however, and that wasn't ever so tampered with (she looks more like a baby springer than a foofy show cocker)

7:21 am

Uniquity

It bothers me to think of breeding methods and the things that have been done in the name of "beauty." I prefer a healthy animal.

7:22 am

Uniquity

She just looks kinda sad in your icon!

7:22 am

Jacula

It was the breeding for narrow skulls that made most cockers loopy. It happened with setters, too.

7:22 am

Atalante

she was tired .... hmmm, let me find a happy pic

7:23 am

Atalante

I was always told with cockers that 1/3 are normal, 1/3 are dangerous and 1/3 are just mad. Bastard breeders

7:23 am

JFB

We had a greyhound and boy! are they dim!! Adorable, loyal, affectionate, patient but dim!

7:24 am

Uniquity

There used to be a collie at my dads (not pure at all) that I taught to eat peanuts rested between my teeth. Weird, but I was young and se would do anything for me! Peanuts were her favourite

7:25 am

Atalante

ok, one very happy dog in my pic. and one owner going uh-oh, bath time soon ...

7:26 am

Atalante

Hobbit is pretty smart. My previous cocker was as dumb as 2 short planks, I'm pretty sure - well, absolutely sure - he was brain damaged at birth

7:26 am

Uniquity

Hey, at least she had fun!

7:27 am

Atalante

oh she had great fun! she loooooooooves the beach

7:27 am

Uniquity

I was flipping through your flickr photos, Hobbit looks quite different from Sadie. Both beautiful, but def. different

7:27 am

Haz1558

And what of Spangle. Where does she come in the dog beauty stakes?

7:28 am

Atalante

oh, number 1, of course!

7:28 am

Jacula

Top dog, Haz.

7:28 am

Uniquity

I wouldn't know Hazlet, I've only ever seen her head! For all I know she is a stuffed animal in the back :)

7:28 am

Haz1558

I'll not insist on top spot except in MY reckoning!

7:28 am

Uniquity

Although, I like her 'grooming.' Very chic and fashionable in that photo!

7:29 am

Jacula

Ah, but Spangle might!

7:29 am

periwinkle

found more than half on first go round, bbl

7:29 am

Atalante

she's a very beautiful and good-natured dog, that deserves top spot!

7:29 am

Atalante

find a pic of the whole dog for Uni :P

7:29 am

Jacula

Bye, peri.

7:29 am

Haz1558

I go looking for a whole dog pic.....

7:29 am

Uniquity

She also has her own personal doc, and a fan club! As well as walkies...

7:32 am

Atalante

what dog could want for more!

7:32 am

Haz1558

I know. Full size look left <--------

7:33 am

Atalante

awwww pretty girl

7:33 am

Haz1558

Anyway, I've neglected to say good morning or good afternoon to everyone. Atalante, you're not marooned in bed?

7:33 am

Uniquity

Oh, she has beautiful little spots on her feet! I still love her ears :)
Methinks her colours push her up the ladder

7:34 am

Jacula

Haz - Spangle looks like she knows we're talking about her.

7:34 am

Atalante

nearly ... I think I'll be going back there soon. I'm waiting for a parcel to be picked up - I just know if I go back to bed, they'll arrive

7:34 am

Uneaixoise

hey, haz! and kisses to Spangle!

7:34 am

Haz1558

Hello Une!

7:35 am

Uniquity

Tell Hobbit to watch the door, and you catch some ZZZZZs

7:35 am

Uneaixoise

mott

7:35 am

Uneaixoise

oops

7:35 am

Haz1558

Jacula, I'd love to know what goes through her head sometimes. Especially when she's doing the stealth wak up the stairs.

7:35 am

Uniquity

To the PB, Unea!

7:35 am

Uneaixoise

noooooooooooooo

7:35 am

Uneaixoise

:-D

7:35 am

Atalante

when you read back through the log, Une and realise we were utterly trashing American spaniels, please note that yours were excluded from the start. Yours are beautiful

7:35 am

Haz1558

No arguing, Une.

7:36 am

Uneaixoise

sigh . . . hope there's a big pot of strong coffee . . .

7:36 am

Haz1558

(Isn't Uniquity well trained?)

7:36 am

Jacula

Haz - does she have a mad session where she races around the house for no apparent reason? My dog and both my cats used to do that.

7:37 am

Uniquity

I am well trained. I require treats now that I have performed.

7:37 am

Haz1558

Her mad session tends to be after she has had her food in the evening. Bones get attacked with great ferocity, she races up and down the hall. Then she settles down again.

7:37 am

Uneaixoise

ata, I know--and I agree re cocker breeders . . . my sweet Lady (now deceased) had every physical problem known to dogdom . . . I adopted her at age 4 and she'd already been bred 3 times . . .

7:37 am

Atalante

and when she's drying off?

7:37 am

Atalante

*throws Uni a bonio*

7:37 am

Haz1558

What sort of treats would you like, Uniquity?

7:38 am

Atalante

poor darling girl :(

7:38 am

Uniquity

A+ are good...

7:38 am

EvaNadine

mornin babblers!

7:38 am

Haz1558

And when she's drying off, she can only be permitted to go outside for a quick piddle - leave her longer and all would be undone.

7:38 am

Uneaixoise

be back in a mo (sneaking thru tunnel carved in floor of penalty box)

7:38 am

Jacula

Morning Une and Evan.

7:38 am

Haz1558

Good morning EvaN!

7:39 am

Uneaixoise

hey jac :-) and eva

7:39 am

Uniquity

This PB has got more holes than swiss cheese!!!

7:39 am

Uniquity

Hey Eva!

7:39 am

Jacula

Haz - do expand on the 'walk of stealth'...

7:39 am

Haz1558

(Hope Une realises that all exits are covered)

7:39 am

EvaNadine

hows everyone doing today?

7:39 am

Jacula

Nice easy grid, Eva.

7:39 am

Haz1558

The walk of stealth takes place when she wants to go upstairs. She's not technically allowed. However, if she averts her gaze, and goes quietly, she thinks we can't see her.

7:40 am

Atalante

lol yes, hobbit does the same thing at the beach when advancing on birds

7:40 am

Haz1558

She'll then droop over the top step and keep watch from there for any attempts to get her down.

7:40 am

Uniquity

Aha. Eye contact is everything to the animal kingdom!

7:40 am

EvaNadine

good to hear, jacula. :)

7:40 am

Atalante

if she walks very slowly and doesn't quite look at them, they won't know she's there

7:41 am

Angelsong

fireworks for me.

7:41 am

Haz1558

Congratulations Angelsong!

7:41 am

Uniquity

Yay Angel

7:41 am

Haz1558

Exactly, Atalante. She pretends to be sleeping sometimes so as not to be moved.

7:41 am

Jacula

LOL, Haz. We used to have a child gate on the stairs to stop our dog going up there. Doesn't work for cats, unfortunately, so now we have to keep the upstairs doors closed. (Which I hate doing.)

7:42 am

Jacula

Well done, Angel.

7:42 am

Haz1558

She doesn't do any harm, she just seems to like the top step as a vantage point to watch for cats. If one appears, the hurtling is hectic.

7:43 am

Atalante

does she go so fast her legs get tangled up?

7:43 am

Atalante

and end up sliding down the last few steps?

7:43 am

Jacula

Hectic hurtling. I like that description. That's what our dog used to do from halfway up the stairs when the post arrived. (The gate was at the top of the stairs.)

7:44 am

Haz1558

Not so far. It just seems to be a fair attempt to do a Buzz Lightyear in canine terms. She runs out of room at the bottom and almost crashes into the door.

7:44 am

Jacula

We had to put a cage over the letterbox to stop him yanking the post out of it. He'd land on the cage and then slide off in a heap. He got out of the habit as he got older.

7:44 am

Atalante

hobbit does. its highly amusing to all concerned

7:45 am

Haz1558

Does Silverclaw watch with disdain?

7:46 am

Atalante

oh yes. from the top step usually. you can just see what she's thinking ...

7:48 am

EvaNadine

hints for the T in the top row or the Ds in the bottom row?

7:48 am

Haz1558

tr7/36 for the t

7:49 am

EvaNadine

just found the T. :)

7:49 am

Jacula

FIREWORKS!:-) tr7 was my last word.

7:49 am

Haz1558

Trying to work out the d words - there are so many d opportunities....

7:49 am

Haz1558

Congratulations Jacula!

7:50 am

EvaNadine

yes, i have to work on the D words, but everything im thinking of is coming from the other 2 Ds...heh

7:50 am

GobiasIndustries

could i get another clue for the tr7.36, please?

7:50 am

Haz1558

de6/21 - de plus what wasn't put in the ratatouille (minus b - a herb - Fawlty Towers reference)

7:51 am

Jacula

Thanks. I must go and clean hutches now, and then I have chicken pies to make. Happy Babbling!

7:51 am

EvaNadine

thanks haz!

7:51 am

Atalante

yay parcel people turning up shortly! then I shall have some lunch, then crawl back to bed ...

7:51 am

Haz1558

Bye Jacula - have a good day!

7:51 am

Haz1558

You're welcome Eva - still trying to decipher which others come from that tile.

7:52 am

EvaNadine

going to visit my niece tonight!
with the exception of my brother, the family got a clean bill of health at the doctors last week. :)

7:52 am

Haz1558

de6/21 and past tense - really not to like exams.

7:52 am

EvaNadine

no worries, haz. i just started, so im sure my brain will click into gear eventually!

7:52 am

Atalante

oops. I forgot. Have lunch, take *dog* for walk, *then* crawl back to bed ...

7:52 am

Haz1558

Good to know you're going to see her, EvaN - hopefully all will be well.

7:53 am

EvaNadine

i just have to *remember* im going there when i leave work -- its in the opposite direction from home and on a different train line!

7:54 am

Haz1558

Oh you'll remember!

7:54 am

GobiasIndustries

tr7.36, anyone?

7:54 am

Haz1558

de4/4 - a plurality of the letter comes from there

7:55 am

Haz1558

tr7/36 - a three lettered attempt to propel a boat

7:55 am

EvaNadine

youd be amazed how absent-minded i can be!

7:55 am

ExWren

tr7, a yachting term

7:55 am

GobiasIndustries

thank you haz, i never would have guessed that word!

7:55 am

Haz1558

My speciality is forgetting where I've parked the car.

7:56 am

GobiasIndustries

well, i'm off for a bit, the ellen show is coming on here and we never miss her show!

7:56 am

Haz1558

You're welcome Gobias. Hello ex-Wren!

7:56 am

EvaNadine

this may be the strangest thing ive seen in a while -- i bought a wall-calendar over the weekend for my office. i just went to hang it, and it has no holes!

7:57 am

Haz1558

So no means of hanging?

7:58 am

ExWren

Hello Hazel. I've been in for quite a while, but concentrating of the words. only 39 to go

7:58 am

ExWren

Don't you have a hole-punch Eva?

7:59 am

Haz1558

It's a nice grid today, isn't it? You're almost there though the last few always take longer than the beginning.

8:00 am

bfsog

im on 19! but to be fair i have not been around at all.

8:00 am

Atalante

ok, off to trudge round a muddy path with a very bouncy dog

8:00 am

EvaNadine

methinks ill hafta hunt-down a hole-puncher!

8:01 am

Haz1558

I needn't say enjoy the trudge, endure it with the thought of bed and peace afterwards.

8:01 am

Anniebrook

hello everyone! just started. grid looks friendly

8:01 am

Haz1558

Hello Annie - yes, a nice grid today.

8:02 am

montreal13

"Have tea, will babble" - hi all !

8:02 am

Scarlet

Good morning, AnnieB, Haz, Ata, ExWren, Lucien and EvaN!

8:02 am

Anniebrook

hello Luc!

8:03 am

Haz1558

Hello montreal - and Scarlet!

8:03 am

Anniebrook

and dear Scarlet!

8:03 am

Scarlet

Annie!! Yippee and Yowza for Bobby!

8:03 am

ExWren

lots of es's and ed's, Annie

8:03 am

Aloyisius

Marvy Monday to all!

8:03 am

montreal13

hey there ((Sacrlet)) !

8:03 am

Scarlet

Aloy!! Good day to thee!

8:04 am

Scarlet

Luc :-)

8:04 am

Haz1558

It's the gathering of the clans. Hello Aloy.

8:04 am

Anniebrook

Yes, there was happiness in my house last night for the Giants! Bobby was elated

8:04 am

montreal13

scarlet* even !

8:04 am

Anniebrook

Hi Aloy!

8:04 am

Anniebrook

thank you, ex-wren!

8:04 am

montreal13

hello there Aloy !

8:05 am

Scarlet

LOL... the entire weekend was a slam-bang for me, Annie... I picked all four against the weighty opinions of the "experts" and beloved is still stunned!

8:05 am

Anniebrook

Scarlet, that is impressive..quite!

8:06 am

Scarlet

*smug*

8:06 am

Anniebrook

as you should be!

8:06 am

Bremen

sl

8:06 am

Scarlet

Good morning, Bremen!

8:07 am

montreal13

didn't like the cowboys and was rooting for the giants but didn't hope too much...

8:07 am

Aloyisius

wtg, Scarlet.. (-: just read your impressive accomplishment after recovering from the vertigo of finding ce5.16

8:08 am

Scarlet

Luc, I was so happy that Indy is out of the mix, too... VERY happy that Eli is out from under Peyton's looming shadow! LOL, Aloy... I am taking "strutting" lessons from my fat old cat...

8:08 am

Haz1558

Is that the carpenter we hear widening the doorways, Scarlet?

8:08 am

Anniebrook

scarlet, smugness and strutting will go just so far!

8:09 am

Scarlet

I know dear Annie... but in years goneby, the best I ever did on picks was 75 %, so I am grateful that I never gamble... this could lead to some serious entanglements... LOL

8:10 am

Scarlet

LOL, Haz... yes, my head is getting rather fattened... but it is an illusion.. I'm no brighter than I was on Friday... alas.. LOL

8:10 am

Anniebrook

You also could have made some serious money

8:10 am

Haz1558

Still, it's nice to know that you have been right. The sweetest words I hear from my daughters 'You were right'.

8:11 am

montreal13

would you say scarlet, that luck may have had a tiny bit of influence on your results ?

8:11 am

Scarlet

Oh, Haz, I have noticed that the older the girls become, I seem to get a little wiser...

8:11 am

Haz1558

Wash out your mouth, montreal. Judgement and knowledge!

8:11 am

Anniebrook

I was at the racetrack yesterday and had a great time..and didnt lose too much so I consider that winning a little

8:11 am

montreal13

lol hazel...

8:12 am

Haz1558

I know - I'm finding the wisdom thing as well. It's great.

8:12 am

Scarlet

Luc, I would say that my picks were (contrary to my usual deliberations) totally emotional and more based on desire than reality of factoring in all the X- stats and injuries... \

8:12 am

montreal13

i KNEW it !!!

8:13 am

Scarlet

:-) So right, as usual, Luc!

8:13 am

montreal13

it's your little finger... woman's intuition striking again !

8:14 am

Scarlet

But, I had a fleeting satisfaction of going against all of the unanimous choices of the experts...

8:14 am

Haz1558

Do men not have intuition or is it just that women act upon it more?

8:14 am

Scarlet

I love that question, Haz... a deep discussion if ever there was one.

8:15 am

Haz1558

It just occurred.....

8:15 am

Scarlet

Annie, the tracks are open now? Wow... I used to go just to people-watch

8:15 am

Aloyisius

Haz.. my kneejerk reaction is that they are "clueless".. but that is not fair, so I will mull that question over

8:15 am

Anniebrook

Aqueduct is open

8:16 am

montreal13

oh i think we get all kinds of intuition(s)... but the other half of our brains is ALSO working... so yes, we don't act as often based on our intuitions...but that's only my most recent theory...

8:16 am

Scarlet

I think women tend to have the courage of blending intellect with projections of scenario outcomes... and act accordingly.

8:17 am

Aloyisius

well, montreal.. both halves of women's brains also work.. (-:

8:17 am

montreal13

courage... smourage...lol...

8:17 am

Haz1558

I think I would have very strong intuitions about people but kind of reserve judgement until later. I'm usually right in my first estimation though. As for situations, I would decide quickly in my own mind what to do, then wait for husband to catch up.

8:17 am

montreal13

i know Aloy...just kidding them a bit...

8:18 am

montreal13

lol hazel...

8:18 am

bbnaz

wow -- morning all. deep discussion that i have missed it would appear

8:18 am

Haz1558

The essential thing is to make him think it was what he wanted all along.

8:19 am

Scarlet

Good day, bbnaz... more of a philosophical meandering...

8:19 am

Aloyisius

haz brought it up, bbnaz

8:19 am

montreal13

good morning Betsy - how are you today ?

8:19 am

Scarlet

I have learned that my first feelings are dead-on, Haz.

8:19 am

Haz1558

Good morning bb - it's not too deep. No dictionaries consulted yet.

8:19 am

montreal13

re-lol hazel

8:19 am

bbnaz

well it is a lovely day dawning out my window...i am on this side of the grass so it is a GREAT day

8:19 am

Haz1558

Another reason for feeling smug, Scarlet!

8:20 am

Scarlet

Where can one consult the woman's textbook on gut piloting...?

8:20 am

montreal13

snowing here with a minus 3 C... and some wind...

8:20 am

Scarlet

LOL, Haz... more of self-preservation!

8:21 am

bbnaz

there is a bit of a breeze outside but no frost on the windows.....so it isn't too cold

8:21 am

Haz1558

I think as you get older you do trust your instincts more, especially if you have been proved right in the past.

8:21 am

Haz1558

My instinct was that the life of a rock groupie wasn't for me, and I've been proved right.

8:21 am

bbnaz

i generally ignore my instincts, make bad choices, then kick and scream my way back to reality........

8:21 am

montreal13

simply amazing what one reads in the chog...

8:22 am

Anniebrook

my first impressions or feelings are usually an indicator of what I will get later on. Yes, I think as you get older you get better at judging

8:22 am

bbnaz

Haz, I think rock groupie is a perfectly admirable early career.........

8:22 am

Haz1558

What are you reading, montreal?

8:22 am

montreal13

that's sounds about right Annie...

8:22 am

Aloyisius

"chog"?? love it, montreal!

8:22 am

bbnaz

life isn't about surviving the storm...it is how to dance in the rain

8:23 am

montreal13

Another Cormac McCarthy's book...

8:23 am

Haz1558

It would have been if I'd ever liked rock music, so I fear I would have been a bit of a hindrance. 'Can you turn the music DOWN?!'

8:23 am

Scarlet

I like that very much, Betsy...

8:23 am

Scarlet

Rock groupie, no, Haz... movie star kidnapper, yes.

8:23 am

montreal13

well tx Aloy... although, i can't claim the rights to the term...

8:24 am

bbnaz

okay so (insert genre) music groupie....or art groupie or life groupie

8:24 am

bbnaz

go for the gusto!

8:24 am

Scarlet

Carpe diem!

8:24 am

montreal13

YOUPPI !

8:24 am

Haz1558

I don't like the term kidnapper. I would prefer 'Movie Star recluse facilitator'

8:25 am

montreal13

lol haz... how's George by the way ??

8:25 am

Scarlet

By all means, Haz, find the terminology that makes you most comfortable!~

8:25 am

Scarlet

LOL, Luc...

8:25 am

Haz1558

George never made it back to his cupboard, Montreal. I am on the look out for someone to replace him.

8:26 am

montreal13

can i volunteer ??

8:26 am

Haz1558

They say Liam Neeson is in Northern Ireland at the minute. He's originally from Ballymena so it would be nice for him. But, he's not as handsome as George.

8:27 am

Haz1558

What are your movie star credentials, montreal?

8:27 am

Scarlet

Oooohhhhh...

8:27 am

montreal13

well, i watched i few movies...

8:28 am

Haz1558

And your looks?

8:28 am

montreal13

8:28 am

pabtrek

what do the 8's start with please

8:28 am

montreal13

not up to me to promote (or otherwise) my looks...

8:29 am

Haz1558

Have you had, or do you have any allergies relating to dogs?

8:29 am

montreal13

got 1 DI8 pab

8:29 am

Anniebrook

May I speak for Luc...he is intelligent, personable, handsome, speaks French and has been an extra in film...Luc is the one in the back of the crowd

8:29 am

Haz1558

Alors!

8:29 am

Scarlet

Annie, are you Lucien's agent?

8:30 am

Aloyisius

de8 x2,

8:30 am

pabtrek

thanks montreal

8:30 am

montreal13

well thank you Annie, very nice of you - and yes, it's true, i tend to move toward the back of crowds... also haz, i HAD allergies to pets but they are gone...

8:30 am

Anniebrook

Well, as manager of surveillance I have had to spy on Luc and the facts are as presented

8:30 am

pabtrek

thanks Aloy

8:31 am

Haz1558

If you were in the cupboard under the stairs, would you listen to Country and Western music?

8:31 am

Aloyisius

di8

8:31 am

Scarlet

LOL, Annie... so you are working for Haz? Very commendable compilations of factoids on Luc!

8:31 am

Aloyisius

slow to find them, pabtrek.. had to scroll

8:32 am

montreal13

alas... i'm also chained here... claimed by some other female...

8:32 am

Scarlet

Haz.... LOL!

8:32 am

Anniebrook

Actually, I am looking for George...will be leaving for Italy soon...I love the villa.

8:32 am

Scarlet

Would your grandchildren enjoy a quick jaunt to Ireland, Luc?

8:32 am

montreal13

NO NO and NO haz !!!!!!!

8:32 am

Haz1558

That answers my next question, montreal. Do you have any significant others. That was George's downfall.

8:33 am

Aloyisius

good answer, montreal.. your rating just went up a notch with Haz

8:33 am

Scarlet

Bravo, Luc!

8:33 am

Scarlet

Annie, that will be a wonderful trip... enjoy the Riviera, too!

8:33 am

Haz1558

So, country and western music a no no. I'll put you on the waiting list. You're up above Kenny Rogers, I'll tell you that.

8:34 am

Haz1558

And Kris Kristofferson.

8:34 am

montreal13

i prefer to be chained in only 1 place at a time... it's better for my general well-being...

8:34 am

Haz1558

PHone!

8:34 am

Scarlet

Odd answer, Luc, but then, to each his own.. LOL

8:35 am

Scarlet

Being chained is a personal preferance...

8:35 am

montreal13

my grand-sons would enjoy a trip to Ireland though they don't speak english...yet... 2 of them are going to France this year though...

8:36 am

Scarlet

Life is too demanding, Haz... instant anything has its drawbacks..

8:44 am

Haz1558

Yes, that's true.

8:45 am

montreal13

instant gratification seems to me the "modus operandi" of a lot of people...

8:45 am

Haz1558

I feel sorry for people seeking instant fame. For so many it seems to bring instant misery.

my 8th grade science teacher would quickly glance over my quizzes, then let me use them as the key to grade everyone else's. i sat at his desk at the front of the room - he didn't use it, bc as a science teacher he had that whole big special counter anyway.

12:11 pm

hurshy

that was a fun reward too, but it's a wonder people didn't hate me for it!

12:11 pm

12:13 pm

hurshy

12:32 pm

Uniquity

Hahaha!! I am picturing their angelic little faces turning feral as the realization of what is to come hits...

12:33 pm

carleekat

hmmm....how about a tickle fight lori?....

12:33 pm

carleekat

* getting ready to pounce on uni*

12:33 pm

aknitter

12:33 pm

LoriP

Yes uni. they're delighted and overjoyed. carlee, now ay! Tickling makes me crazy(er)

12:35 pm

aknitter

12:35 pm

Uniquity

**ponders the thought of Lori being tickled, whilst sneaking into FMitch's hidy cupboard in the PB**

12:35 pm

12:35 pm

LoriP

12:35 pm

12:36 pm

Uniquity

Congratulations Montreal!! Way to go

LoriP

Congrats montreal!

12:36 pm

12:37 pm

montreal13

tytytyty "taking a bow with a large, sweeping gesture with my brand new fedora"

12:37 pm

Uniquity

It's only the one with the biggest feet who will suffer in this scenario Carlee!

12:37 pm

LoriP

then pick out a size that fits. That's what we do.

12:37 pm

Uniquity

Is it made of tinfoil, Monty?

12:37 pm

carleekat

ok..well... off to sort...

12:37 pm

carleekat

Uniquity

Twice as handsome? Is that even possible?

Take care Carlee Kitty

12:38 pm

LoriP

12:38 pm

lil*monkey

are you there LoriP???

12:38 pm

montreal13

ahhh (((Uni)))...

12:38 pm

LoriP

Hey! it's the chick who can't spell her name right. :)

12:39 pm

LoriP

I'm not all here lil, that's for sure.....

12:39 pm

lil*monkey

I'll have to consult my mom, who named me after my scottish grandfather (MacLaurie)

12:39 pm

montreal13

Scarlet was here earlier and predicted correctly all 4 football playoff games !!!

12:39 pm

Vicuna

Your Scottish grandfather was called McMonkey?

12:40 pm

LoriP

LOL Lil. Good for Scarlet!

12:40 pm

montreal13

lol Vi !

12:40 pm

Vicuna

Or am I paying the price for coming in mid-conversation...

12:40 pm

lil*monkey

LOL vicuna... he's probably flipping in his grave right now

12:40 pm

lil*monkey

McMonkey wounds like a new gastronomical treat at McDonald's

12:40 pm

LoriP

Vic's on today. ***Note to self: don't set up one for Vic***

12:41 pm

lil*monkey

i mean, "sounds"

12:41 pm

montreal13

"and now, for something completely different..."

12:41 pm

Haz1558

The very best time is to come in mid-conversation. You can cause havoc.

12:41 pm

Vicuna

But "wounds" may actually have been more accurate.

12:41 pm

lil*monkey

personally i like to wreak havoc

12:41 pm

Uniquity

Ha, you are approximately ten minutes late

12:41 pm

Vicuna

Ooooh, it's havoc time! Mayhem for all!

12:41 pm

lil*monkey

*flings poo*

12:41 pm

Uniquity

Ha, Haz. They are the same

12:42 pm

Vicuna

*starts pelting the chat room with pretzels and pinecones*

12:42 pm

LoriP

haz! There are de 6's today, and Scarlet was right on the football picks, and it's snowing here, and Uni is goofing off, and carlee is sorting socks, and lil can't spell, and Vic is on the ball, and.......

12:42 pm

Uniquity

**ducks poo and begins drooling from the safety of FM's hidy cupboard**

12:42 pm

lil*monkey

i just had dental surgery this AM, so i am still woozy

12:42 pm

Haz1558

I answer to just about anything, Uniquity. My dear husband sometimes gets my name wrong.

12:42 pm

montreal13

gotta go - thank you all for clues and entertainment - happy babbling all !

12:42 pm

lil*monkey

check out my stamp, tho

12:42 pm

Vicuna

Did FM say you could hide there, Uni?

12:42 pm

Haz1558

Bye montreal.

12:42 pm

Uniquity

FM loaned me her head last night....I am just...returning it. Yeah. That's it!

12:43 pm

Vicuna

Bye, montreal. Don't let anyone squash your tinfoil fedora!

12:43 pm

lil*monkey

a tout a l'heure montreal

12:43 pm

Haz1558

Thankfully the de6/24 shouldn't be too controversial.

12:43 pm

Uniquity

Take care Monty! Watch out for snow

12:43 pm

Vicuna

Well, I guess that's true. Anyone who lends out her head will probably not quibble about a mere cupboard.

12:43 pm

montreal13

bye all ------ "POOF" (it's NOT tinfoil !!!) - "actual POOF"

12:44 pm

LoriP

Take care monty.

12:44 pm

Vicuna

(I bet it IS tinfoil, anyway.)

12:44 pm

Vicuna

(How else would he remain so suspiciously immune to the waves of madness that emanate from the Babble grid?)

12:45 pm

lil*monkey

Lori & Uni, I had no idea !

12:45 pm

LoriP

It's the only logical explanation.

12:45 pm

Uniquity

What'd we do? **is good**

12:46 pm

Vicuna

And haz, how are you planning to liven things up today?

12:46 pm

LoriP

What'd we do? ***Is better***

12:46 pm

lil*monkey

just read Uni's bio... did not know you are mom & daughter

12:46 pm

Uniquity

**is best. est**

12:47 pm

LoriP

**Is more better-er than best-est***

12:47 pm

Haz1558

See how the mention of logic has silenced everyone?

12:47 pm

lil*monkey

i like betterierested

12:47 pm

Uniquity

**wins anyway**

12:47 pm

IamJaye

Hmm. Greetings.

12:47 pm

Vicuna

Sorry. *hangs head in shame*

12:47 pm

LoriP

The psychological deficits don't fall far from the tree do they..... :-)

12:47 pm

Uniquity

Dear Haz, I feel as though Spangle is looking for treats in your photo. Have you given her any lately?

12:48 pm

LoriP

G'd afternoon Iam.

12:48 pm

Vicuna

Let us not call them defects, Lori. "Intriguingnessess" sounds so much better.

12:48 pm

Haz1558

Is chat having a major lag? I typed something, it disappeared, and it has yet to reappear.

12:48 pm

Vicuna

Hello, Jaye.

12:48 pm

lil*monkey

diving back into the grid now *splash*

12:48 pm

LoriP

wll, if you're looking for an intectual and logical discussion, I'd have to stop typing....:)

12:49 pm

Vicuna

Was it too sensible to make it past the sense-sensors?

12:49 pm

Uniquity

Chat is being odd lately. I have two minutes worth come up in one go

12:49 pm

LoriP

That's what happens when you don't wear the tinfoil Haz. We tried to warn ya'.

12:50 pm

LoriP

***Disavows any knowledge of chat lag, and pretends everything's fine here***

12:50 pm

Haz1558

I'll have to get that tinfoil hat on order.

12:50 pm

LoriP

intectual? I rest my acse. yeesh.

12:50 pm

Haz1558

And, regarding Spangle, she's just had her evening meal so is needing no treats.

12:51 pm

LoriP

I actually typed intectual. OMG, musta' been the water from lil's dive.

12:51 pm

Vicuna

I recommend an interior lining of activated charcoal for extra protection, haz.

12:51 pm

Judi

Happy Monday, Babblers! Could I get a clue for the first de6/21, please?

12:51 pm

LoriP

heh heh heh

12:51 pm

LoriP

G'd afternoon Judi.

12:52 pm

Vicuna

Typing is an entirely independent process from thinking, Lori. The silliness of the former is little reflection on the latter.

12:52 pm

Uniquity

I think Haz can help you Judi!

12:52 pm

FMitch

Uni I think it is time you returned my head before you learn of all the worlds secrets and BTW this cupboard is only big enough for me. Out you go *gentle shove*

12:52 pm

LoriP

de + the herb, b****

12:52 pm

Haz1558

Thank you Vicuna - I'll only order top quality goods so it pays to know what constitutes the best.

12:52 pm

FMitch

Good evening all

12:52 pm

Haz1558

And look, FMitch is here!

12:52 pm

LoriP

Charcoal liner is a nice addition Vic.

12:52 pm

Uniquity

Awww, but FM...I can curl up really small. Tiny tiny! **returns pretty head to rightful owner**

12:53 pm

Haz1558

With cake!

12:53 pm

LoriP

FM! How's it goin'? Uni's in 'yer cupboard.

12:53 pm

Vicuna

FM! You look so beautiful with your own head back on! (Habbit's really didn't suit you, you know.)

12:53 pm

Vicuna

Hobbits, I meant. Don't make a habit of Hobbit.

12:53 pm

Uniquity

Lori must be silenced. Where is Annie at, I thin she can help

12:53 pm

FMitch

Lovely to see you :)

12:53 pm

Judi

Ty. Fireworkds! What's new in Babble land?

12:54 pm

LoriP

Congrats judi!

12:54 pm

FMitch

Congrats Judi

12:54 pm

Haz1558

Congratulations Judi!

12:54 pm

aknitter

12:54 pm

Vicuna

Yay for Judi!

12:54 pm

Vicuna

And yay for aknitter!

12:54 pm

Uniquity

Yay Knitter!

12:55 pm

Judi

Yay, aknitter!

12:55 pm

Haz1558

And look - FMitch has the Cat of GLory and the Dog of Dooooooom together.

12:55 pm

Haz1558

Congratulations aknitter!

12:55 pm

LoriP

Congrats knitter!

12:55 pm

aknitter

takes bow, collects flowers and chocolates

12:55 pm

FMitch

Oh Haz, haven't seen that pic of Spangle for a while, she looks like she is about to sproing into action!.
Yup, have updated Flickr with a few more pics.

Congrats knitter

12:56 pm

aknitter

anyone need a clue or 2 before i go off and fold laaundry?

12:56 pm

Uniquity

Alright. I gotta get ready for my cake course. Sorry to leave the party, but schoolwork calls!

12:56 pm

Haz1558

The picture of Spangle was put up to prove to Uniquity that she's got a back end.

12:56 pm

LoriP

What is with you people and this housework thing? I can give you some pointers on avoidance if you like. :)

12:57 pm

Uniquity

And I am now a believer, Haz. A pretty back end it is too

12:57 pm

Vicuna

When schoolwork is cake, Uni, you are forgiven for leaving the party to pursue it.

12:57 pm

LoriP

Later #1, take care and watch the weather.

12:57 pm

FMitch

Waves to Uni and takes head back before she leaves :)

12:57 pm

nanachichi

could use the clue for sl6,18

12:57 pm

Vicuna

Goodness, Haz! Was Spangles back end in doubt?

12:57 pm

Haz1558

Glad it proved my point, Uni. Enjoy your cake.

12:57 pm

LoriP

sl 6, the most sneaky?

12:58 pm

FMitch

Lori they are strange aren't they, housework visits my place infrequently but then with no kids or animals not too messy at the best of times.

12:58 pm

Haz1558

Yes, Vicuna, it was. Suggestions of her not being altogether a real dog.....

12:58 pm

nanachichi

how could i not see that

12:58 pm

nanachichi

kept going to the y

12:58 pm

Vicuna

"A tidy house denotes an empty life."

12:58 pm

LoriP

I've read about it and stuff, and ehard people talk about it, but I try not to induleg much myself FM.

12:59 pm

nanachichi

do u really believe a tidy house denotes that

12:59 pm

Vicuna

A vision of perfection she may be, Haz, but still, a mounted front half of a dog is not quite the same companion as one that can wag.

12:59 pm

Haz1558

Well...... I like a tidy house.

12:59 pm

Haz1558

One of these days I'll get an animated picture of her!

12:59 pm

LoriP

Get nana? Cool.

12:59 pm

Vicuna

I like a tidy house, too. But to have one I would have to choose not to do so many other more interesting things.

1:00 pm

nanachichi

a tidy house means no babble butt, lol what i am getting since being addicted

1:00 pm

FMitch

Talking of which, did you get your work bench sorted out Vi?

1:00 pm

LoriP

No, don't get nana! Innocent, innocent I tell ya! I meant dod you get it.... (ack)

1:00 pm

Haz1558

I think it's in my genes - the housework thing, but it has got weaker through the generations.

1:00 pm

lil*monkey

can i get some clues? I need all the si words , except for the last one.

1:00 pm

Vicuna

I did, and I printed my new picture, too.

1:00 pm

Vicuna

How's the beading going?

1:01 pm

Vicuna

Are they all glued to the keyboard?

1:01 pm

nanachichi

thanks i got it

1:01 pm

kc8501

tidy house??? that's what you have after the kids move out. I look forward to it

1:01 pm

nanachichi

lol

1:01 pm

Haz1558

si words could find you being kept somewhere you don't want to be (si5/14 and the following si6)

1:01 pm

FMitch

Wel done Vi, it wasn't beading last night, it was papier mache, lovely gloopy fun.

1:01 pm

LoriP

si, + wi** animals

1:01 pm

nanachichi

i still have all my kids junk here and more

1:02 pm

LoriP

my turn on Guitar Hero

1:02 pm

Haz1558

si4/5 - differs from the last si4/5 only in the last consonant

1:02 pm

nanachichi

and grandkids stuff,,,never ever going to have a tidy house,,,clean but not tidy

1:02 pm

Vicuna

I haven't done papier mache since I quit teaching, but a room full of papier-mache-ing 13-year-olds was a wonderful sight to behold!

1:03 pm

kc8501

ok. don't tell me that, having a clean house in 8 years is one of my few motivations to make it that long

1:03 pm

FMitch

I can believe it, I haven't done it since school. Will see if the pic I took yesterday is any good brb

1:03 pm

Vicuna

What did you make with your gloopy fun, then, FM?

1:03 pm

Haz1558

The start of a tinfoil hat?

1:04 pm

Vicuna

Ah yes. The classic papier-mache built over a balloon model would be an excellent base for protective headgear.

1:05 pm

lil*monkey

last word, sl6,18

1:05 pm

Haz1558

I think so. You could get quite a cottage industry going.

1:05 pm

nanachichi

kc there is a swinging door in this house,,,but i cant say i dont enjoy it most of the time

1:05 pm

Haz1558

sl6/18 - the most cunning

1:06 pm

Haz1558

Or the most Mr Stallone you can get. (UGH)

1:06 pm

lil*monkey

thank you Haz, fireworks for me !

1:06 pm

Haz1558

Congratulations!

1:06 pm

Vicuna

Yay for lil*monkey!

1:07 pm

FMitch

Just going to change my icon.

1:07 pm

Vicuna

Standing by, FM...

1:07 pm

Haleybug

can anybody help on ce5,16

1:07 pm

Haz1558

Drum roll.

1:07 pm

lil*monkey

thanks all... now I have to go get some sleep... my anesthesia is still wearing off

1:07 pm

Vicuna

ce5/16 - past tense of gave away

1:07 pm

Haz1558

ce5/16 - past tense of ce4/6

1:08 pm

Haleybug

thanx

1:10 pm

Vicuna

(The suspense is driving me mad.)

1:10 pm

FMitch

That wsa a bit of a palaval but icon is now changed. Item stands about 14' tall.

1:10 pm

Vicuna

(Oh, wait. Maybe I was already mad.)

1:11 pm

Haz1558

You can certainly blame FMitch for this bout of madness.

1:11 pm

Haz1558

You can certainly blame FMitch for this bout of madness.

1:11 pm

Haz1558

You can certainly blame FMitch for this bout of madness.

1:12 pm

Vicuna

You can say that again, Haz! lol

1:12 pm

FMitch

Hic ups Haz?

1:12 pm

Haz1558

In my defence, it wouldn't take my pearls of wisdom the first time....

1:12 pm

Vicuna

Wow, FM, that's really cool. What is the tiny skinny base made of?

1:12 pm

Haz1558

Your creation has something of Belleek about it, FMitch, it's a lovely shape.

1:13 pm

FMitch

A plastic champagne flute which is now covered with the gloop. Couple more layers to do and then seal and decorate.

1:13 pm

bbnaz

Haz -- Spangle is down right regal in that icon

1:13 pm

Vicuna

Fun fun fun! =D

1:14 pm

periwinkle

HI all

1:14 pm

periwinkle

your creation is lovely, FM

1:14 pm

Vicuna

Hello, peri.

1:14 pm

FMitch

Hi peri and thankyou.

1:15 pm

bbnaz

FM your flickr stuff page is quite "enlightening". I love the creativity.

1:15 pm

Haz1558

Thank you bb - she knows how to pose!

1:15 pm

periwinkle

going to put laundry in wash, brb

1:16 pm

bbnaz

I must have asked this before but have forgotten the answer.....what type of spaniel is she?

1:17 pm

Haz1558

She's a Welsh Springer, bb.

1:17 pm

FMitch

thanks bbnaz although I can't claim the peacocks as mine, they are Atalantes.

1:18 pm

Haz1558

Sorry for delay, I was checking up on who won Golden Globes. Not James Nesbitt, sadly.

1:18 pm

bbnaz

Well Spangle is lovely........and Mitch, I was referring to your use of babble words! I now think I know what an "etui" is.

1:18 pm

FMitch

I had to spend 40 mins queuing to get out of a car park this afternoon as there was only one exit - cona you believe it!!!

1:18 pm

FMitch

Ah yes the babblets, I keep meaning to update it with some more.

1:19 pm

Vicuna

40 minutes??? Yikes.

1:19 pm

Vicuna

brb

1:20 pm

Haz1558

That must have been frustrating - too bad if you had been in a hurry.

1:21 pm

FMitch

My thoughts exactly but as I wasn't just went with the flow, wel with the snail like crawl :)

1:22 pm

Haz1558

If you'd been in Switzerland, you'd have had to keep switching your engine on and off.

1:23 pm

FMitch

LOL I did at one point ans we didn't move for 20 mins.

1:24 pm

Haz1558

What was the hold-up - apart from there being only one exit?

1:24 pm

debjed

back from lunch, help with the de6,24?

Ok thanks!....and Hi to Scarlet...[hugz]!!

2:33 pm

Vicuna

(Note to Scarlet: sloths don't have much in the way of ta5, and they hang from their claws! lol)

2:34 pm

Scarlet

You are so right, Vi... I am thinking of the oppossum... *making notes in self improvement*

2:35 pm

Vicuna

lol, Scarlet! If that's your greatest need for self-improvement, you're in good shape! =)

2:35 pm

Scarlet

You are sooooo diplomatic, Vicuna! LOL

2:36 pm

Vicuna

Well, I can't see either sloths or opposums being too offended...

2:37 pm

Scarlet

But, it is unfair to cross the species, especially when Babbling... they have an underground spy system, I understand... LOL

2:38 pm

Scarlet

There may be nothing more terrifying than rampaging oppossums and three months later, the sloths will catch up...

2:38 pm

Vicuna

Possibly, possibly. The inias, tenrecs, and nene keep an eye out for everyone else, I suppose.

2:38 pm

Scarlet

But I LOVE the tenrecs... maybe they could put in a good word for me...

2:38 pm

LoriP

Scarlet

Hi, there, Lor! How's about a Green Bay/New England Super Bowl?

2:40 pm

Scarlet

Awww... we agree Vi!!

2:40 pm

Scarlet

Hi, Une!!

2:40 pm

LoriP

Man, i dunno' I have alraedy exceeded my quoate for hearing Favre.....

2:40 pm

Vicuna

I even knew what they were before they first appeared in the grid, and felt all smug and pleased to recognize them.

2:41 pm

LoriP

tenrecs? That's a lot of crashes. Must be on the autobahn.

2:41 pm

Scarlet

Me too, Vi! Now, alas, the world (at least in the Babble zip code) knows too...

2:41 pm

Uneaixoise

hey, scarlet!!

2:41 pm

Vicuna

2:41 pm

Scarlet

Lori, he is the one really good story this year... and as much as I love the Jints, they deserve it!!

2:42 pm

LoriP

I'm 'spectin' an (ack) Giants vs Pats game. Who knows though.

2:43 pm

Scarlet

Lori: this will be the last time I mention this: I picked all four of the winners this weekend, and I DO NOT GAMBLE... but my beloved is in awe of me...

2:43 pm

LoriP

Was nice to see the Colts go away. Booing that young girl that won the pass, kick...contest. Booing her for being sponsored by the Pats was beyond the pale. Disgusting.

2:43 pm

Scarlet

And all the talking heads on ESPN, FOX and CBS chose, unanimously, all the other teams to win!

2:44 pm

LoriP

LOL Scarlet, I was duly informed of your Scarlet the Greek-ness. Well done!

2:44 pm

Scarlet

Really? Who spilled the beans, Lor?

2:44 pm

LoriP

I can not reveal a source. There's an amendment fo rthat, though i can't recollect which one....

2:44 pm

Scarlet

It must be those very angry sloths that Vicuna sikked on me...

2:45 pm

Scarlet

In CANADA?

2:45 pm

Scarlet

*sicced*

2:45 pm

LoriP

2:45 pm

Scarlet

*sicked*

2:45 pm

Scarlet

*fooey... told on me*

2:45 pm

LoriP

Nope, citizens don't need protectin' in Canada. When someone wants our opinion, they give it to us!

2:46 pm

Scarlet

I am taking that from the source, Lor!~

2:46 pm

Scarlet

Hahhaaaaa.

2:49 pm

LoriP

***Boy, can I kill a room or what.***

2:49 pm

Vicuna

Oh, I leave th room to put on another sweater, and the minute my back is turned, Lori's talking about my dark side. Sheesh.

2:49 pm

Scarlet

I think it's the football talk, Lor... we seem to be the only two women here who really enjoy it...

2:50 pm

Scarlet

No she wasn't Vicuna... Honest, she was, er... speculating about Darth Vadar...

2:50 pm

Vicuna

And Scarlet, I'm the one who was warning you about the sloths so the wouldn't get angry with you!

2:50 pm

LoriP

Oh Vic's still here? Er, cough, I thought you'd left.... :)

2:50 pm

Vicuna

DARTH VADER?!?! Okay, I think you wanna taste of my dark side. Arise, storm!

2:51 pm

Vicuna

North winds blow!

2:51 pm

LoriP

Every time you say sloth, I think you're referring to my housekepping.

2:51 pm

Vicuna

Lightning, stwike the wabbit!!!!

2:51 pm

LoriP

***Kill the wabbit, kill the wabbit...***

2:52 pm

Scarlet

Wow.... somebody really pi**ed off Mother Nature...

2:52 pm

Vicuna

(Oh curses. I've given away that my dark side is no more than Elmer Fudd.)

Scarlet

Why do I have several bunny corpses on my lawn now...?

2:55 pm

Vicuna

2:55 pm

2:56 pm

Vicuna

2:57 pm

Scarlet

Tower of Babble?

3:11 pm

Vicuna

Well, I feel that I have made a good day's contribution to the general mayhem. Who's going to be next?

3:12 pm

Scarlet

Ata, Hobbit looks as though she is checking her artwork as she dances through the damp sand... asking, "What do you think... a touch more ecru?"

3:12 pm

Scarlet

Vicuna, actually no one can touch your mastery... I am certain that something will inspire you to even greater heights...

3:13 pm

Vicuna

How nicely put, Scarlet. I mean about Hobbit.

3:13 pm

Scarlet

Awwww... thank you, Vi.

Atalante

3:14 pm

thebanddork

3:15 pm

Scarlet

It must be invigorating... no matter what is happening in life, you will go outside and inhale the salty air, and watch your much-loved dog enjoy it as much as you do... maybe a bit more since she gets to make sandart...

6:22 pm

Jacula

Hope that red turtle isn't doing any snapping!

6:22 pm

redturtlehead

Nah, just wrestling withthe grid, it and I are not so delighted today..

6:23 pm

Jacula

Holding breath... not good, Kaz. B R E A T H E

6:23 pm

redturtlehead

Maybe I should try snapping?

6:23 pm

Jacula

Let me get my fingers out of the way first, red.

6:23 pm

Kazozz

lol ty i needed that

6:23 pm

redturtlehead

ah you take all the fun out of it jac...

6:23 pm

jillibus

red, I believe there is a snapping turtle babbler...

6:24 pm

Jacula

LOL, red.

6:24 pm

redturtlehead

Ah!!!

6:25 pm

redturtlehead

AE 5,12? I have the second one.

6:25 pm

jillibus

not online just now, though, but you'd better watch out!

6:26 pm

jillibus

ae5/12 -- malaria mosquito

6:26 pm

redturtlehead

I will monitor my snapping appropriately Jili...Actually I want to go pro when I get a paycheck (soon) but I was thinking of changing my user name...

6:26 pm

Jacula

ae5/12 = ae + little Mr. Tutu, Dekker or O'Connor.

6:26 pm

redturtlehead

anopheles?

6:26 pm

jillibus

maybe it's yellow fever

6:27 pm

jillibus

yep, yllow fever or dengue

6:27 pm

redturtlehead

I got it. I think it is one of the malarial skeeters, there are a few...it was a good clue Jili, and another good one from Jac. thanks

6:27 pm

Jacula

Think of Bishop Tutu's first name and shorten it for the bit after the 'ae'.

6:27 pm

JBV

good evening, babble friends - how goes the grid tonight? looks dreadful

6:28 pm

Mom

Hi JBV :)

6:28 pm

Jacula

Hi, JBV. I found it a nice easy grid.

6:28 pm

redturtlehead

Hi JBV! I am not loving on the grid, as they say.

6:28 pm

Kazozz

Jac last se 4/4 and i'm ready with the frozen fish!

6:28 pm

jillibus

JBV, the monkeys are kept busy but do seem to find things

6:28 pm

Jacula

Kaz - where a badger lives.

6:28 pm

JBV

well, I'm jumping in for a while without consulting Lickety's list - let's see .......

6:29 pm

Krista

Hi all...just went to the list with 59 to go. Yuck.

6:29 pm

Jacula

JBV - I got down to 18 without the list. Only consulted it then 'cos I had things to do. You CAN do it!

6:29 pm

jillibus

the last se4/4 is what you do to a table with an extra last cons.

6:29 pm

Jacula

Hi, Krista.

6:29 pm

Mom

{{Krista}} hello

6:30 pm

Kazozz

i thought that was a burrow lol

6:30 pm

redturtlehead

I went to the list at 65 words, Lazy I spose...

6:30 pm

Jacula

You got the final se4 now, Kaz? (Sounds like what a jelly eventually does.)

6:30 pm

JBV

that's good news, Jac, thanks for the encouragement

6:30 pm

Noelle

what's the list?

6:30 pm

Jacula

No, Kaz. Rabbits live in a burrow or a warren.

6:31 pm

redturtlehead

educational as well as entertaining Jacula.

6:31 pm

UDbmas

wow this one is ea 4,6. In fact, I am doing it quite ea 6,24. Of the 2 I have seen so far, this is the ea 7,28. After yesterday, I am glad today's is one of the ea 6,18.

6:32 pm

Krista

ooooh, strange...my 'M' is not grayed out, but Lickety's says I have them all!

6:32 pm

redturtlehead

don't rub it in UDb!!!

6:32 pm

JBV

thanks, UDbmas for the 7/28 - didn't have that one

6:32 pm

UDbmas

Just trying to give a creative string of clues... LOL

6:33 pm

Jacula

The list, Noelle, consists of the first 2 letters of each word in the grid followed by their letter length and points value. One is provided by Lickety and the other (the original) by BrandyJack).

6:33 pm

redturtlehead

It was a good string!!! ;)

6:33 pm

Krista

I just "sent words to Babble" and that grayed it out, but never had that happen.

6:33 pm

jillibus

Noelle, the list is Lickety's Babble Clues. Open a new window, get Babble up again, scroll down to Friends of Babble, and voila!

6:33 pm

Jacula

Nice one, UD!

6:33 pm

jillibus

very good, UD

6:33 pm

Noelle

Oh Thank you

6:33 pm

Kazozz

6:34 pm

UDbmas

6:34 pm

Jacula

(for Kaz)

6:34 pm

redturtlehead

Oh I feel silly, I had been misspelling se 6,24 all day no wonder i couldn;t get it.

6:34 pm

jillibus

Lickety's is a bit more helpful because you can enter your words into it and see what you're missing and where

6:35 pm

Kazozz

perfect Jac lol

6:35 pm

Mom

you'll get them, Kaz

6:35 pm

UDbmas

oooo nice fish jac!

6:35 pm

Jacula

6:36 pm

UDbmas

6:36 pm

redturtlehead

Bye Jili, pay our respects to his/her majesty

6:36 pm

Jacula

What was that, UD??

6:36 pm

Kazozz

ok I need help with last 2 ge words 4/6 and 5/14 please

6:37 pm

UDbmas

jilli (2 ls)...saw somthing earlier about typos...

6:37 pm

Kazozz

nm guessed em lol

6:37 pm

redturtlehead

the 5,14 is feathered friends

6:37 pm

Jacula

Kaz - 'to obtain' + first vowel is the ge4 and the 5 is the plural.

6:37 pm

UDbmas

sorry kaz...still on eds

6:38 pm

Kazozz

i've never seen some of these words lol

6:38 pm

Jacula

ge4/6 (last one) is a Japanese clog.

6:39 pm

Kazozz

first de 6/21??

6:40 pm

MarkDF

de 6,21 is to hate something

6:40 pm

UDbmas

the devil is in the ... singular

6:40 pm

Jacula

Kaz - the 'Babblets' (words most of us learn on here and may never have the chance to use in any conversation other than on here) will soon become second nature to see and to find.

6:41 pm

Kazozz

have the devil one and the hate one

6:41 pm

Kazozz

Jac u totally confused me lol

6:41 pm

Jacula

We even have our own volcano here - 'etna' (the Sicilian volcano).

6:42 pm

kristin

de6/21 is de + plus what dogs wag

6:42 pm

Jacula

Sorry, Kaz.

6:42 pm

kristin

then plural

6:42 pm

Kazozz

got that one thx kristin....must be one more that i dont have :(

6:43 pm

Mom

Hi Kristin

6:43 pm

kristin

sorry, i'm not working on a list, that was my first one :(

6:43 pm

kristin

hi mom

6:43 pm

Jacula

The first de6/21 = de + the last 4 letters of Mr. Fawlty (from Fawlty Towers) name. Or think of a herb for the last 4 letters.

6:44 pm

Jacula

Kaz - I don't always make it easy. I don't believe in spelling words out until the last minute.

6:45 pm

LadyNatts

go figure... I just sat down.. finally home from work... thought I had an hour before I had to start hubby's dinner, and now I'm being asked to pick up daughter - she "hung out" after school today.

6:45 pm

Kazozz

thank goodness i remember fawlty towers...great clue and got me fireworks !

6:45 pm

Kazozz

never would have found that without u!!

6:45 pm

Mom

~~~~~~Congrats Kaz~~~~~~~~

6:45 pm

Mom

seems to work that way LadyNatts

6:45 pm

Jacula

*Begins oldie saga... In the old days on here, the only stats we had were how many words were to be found. There was none of that list stuff and fancy fireworks etc. We had to do it all for ourselves by hard work. * LOL

6:46 pm

Jacula

Well done, Kaz!

6:46 pm

Kazozz

now i can go cook dinner! gl all and c u next time! Thanks again Jac

6:46 pm

kristin

ok gotta google fawlty towers . . .

6:46 pm

LadyNatts

*sighs*... oh well... back later, I guess

6:46 pm

Jacula

LadyNatts - That's life!

6:47 pm

Mom

bye bye Kaz, nice to meet you

6:47 pm

Mom

me too Kristin

6:47 pm

Jacula

kristin - You should watch Fawlty Towers. It's brilliant!

6:47 pm

UDbmas

tc kaz

6:47 pm

Jacula

'Bye, Kaz. Nice to meet you and well done on finishing.

6:47 pm

Mom

got it.

6:48 pm

redturtlehead

Bye Kaz

6:49 pm

kristin

Jac I googled it, not sure we have it in the US, but thanks for the clue!

6:49 pm

Jacula

Can I just add to the 'oldie' rant that 'I'm 83, you know!'

6:49 pm

Mom

I haven't seen it here on our TV stations

6:49 pm

Mom

83 my foot!

6:50 pm

redturtlehead

I don't think we get the Fawlty towers in the US, the pretty much play oldies like "As time goes by" on PBS, which I love...

6:50 pm

redturtlehead

I like Judi Dench

6:50 pm

Mom

I love As Time Goes By

6:50 pm

redturtlehead

Me, too!

6:51 pm

Jacula

LOL, I'm not really. I've pondered WHY old people feel the need to announce their age and the only reason I can imagine is that when you get over a certain age you wake up each morning, surprised to still be here, think, 'Blimey! I'm still here and I'm 83 (or whatever) and so you can't help telling people.) Yes, I know I will be punished for this satirical cruelty should I ever reach old age.

6:51 pm

Jacula

Anyway, 'Old' people are always at least 12 years older than your own age!

6:51 pm

redturtlehead

Mom, can you explain your avatarpicture?

6:51 pm

Mom

let's hope we are still here at 83 and so is Babble

6:51 pm

Mom

you are my age Jac.

6:52 pm

UDbmas

I am a Blackadder & Top Gear fan

6:52 pm

Mom

it is a snowman's funeral RedTurtle, he is in the bucket they are carrying and his family is behind the procession

6:52 pm

Jacula

Yup, Mom. We're both half a century old.

6:52 pm

kristin

mom that is too funny!

6:53 pm

Mom

and another half century to go

6:53 pm

Jacula

Heck, Mom! We've clocked up 100 years between us!

6:53 pm

Mom

thanks Kristin

6:53 pm

Mom

yes, we have.

6:53 pm

redturtlehead

ahhhhhh.Ikeptthinking they were carrying thebucket as a way to honor it, like when they carry kings...Sometimes, I can be dense!

6:53 pm

UDbmas

Fawlty Towers comes on late nights sometimes here in NYC...On ch 25 and the PBS channels. It may be on BBCA also.

6:53 pm

Mom

you are not dense, Redturtle

6:54 pm

redturtlehead

I s hould probably not contirubte to TV discussion. For this contract I forgoed the Television.

6:54 pm

kristin

redturtle I wasn't sure what it symbolized either until she explained it, then it made perfect sense

6:54 pm

UDbmas

Cheers Jac & Mom...I just joined the half-century club last month!

6:54 pm

Jacula

UD - If you've seen Fawlty Towers, my favourite episode, though it's hard to name a favourite, is the Gourmet Night (where Ba*** bashes his car with a branch.)

6:55 pm

UDbmas

I like the rat episode

6:55 pm

Mom

Congrats UDmas and happy birthday

6:57 pm

Jacula

Hi, Andree.

6:57 pm

Coreybbc

could someone tell me why my words arent found in the puzzle...almost every word I find, it isnt in the puzzle

6:58 pm

Mom

the letters have to connect Corey

6:58 pm

Coreybbc

ahhhh....

6:58 pm

Coreybbc

thanks

6:58 pm

UDbmas

the letters have to touch the next in line

6:58 pm

UDbmas

oopd.. I am redundant again

6:58 pm

Coreybbc

I totally didnt understand that

6:58 pm

Jacula

Corey - are you trying to do the grid in Swahili, perhaps?

6:59 pm

Mom

gotta scoot off here and do something not as fun but productive. (putting the dishes away)

6:59 pm

Mom

pleasant dreams and {{Hugs}} to all

6:59 pm

UDbmas

6:59 pm

redturtlehead

Corey, there was a nurse friend of mine trying to play last night and she had the same trouble

6:59 pm

Mom

night Redturtle, thanks for the hug

6:59 pm

Mom

good night Praise

7:00 pm

Jacula

Mom - I'd say get the kids to do that. Problem is with others putting kitchen stuff away is that they never put it all in the right place and then you get frustrated looking for it later.

7:00 pm

Coreybbc

I dont speak swahili, and there are no Thai characters in the puzzle, so english really was my only option

7:00 pm

Mom

no kids home to do that :(

7:00 pm

pam

Aw. Mom. Empty nest. ((HUGS))

7:01 pm

Jacula

Corey - Ah! Well, can you spell like 'Enable' does?

7:01 pm

JMHBEAN

kristin did u get the i word clue?

7:01 pm

redturtlehead

It Was very nice. Maybe a bit too quiet, as by 4 we were all very sleepy...

7:02 pm

redturtlehead

I even got to babble in the first 20 words or so...

7:02 pm

Mom

not all the way empty, just working. Will be empty sometime in February though.

7:02 pm

kristin

Yes bean, thanks for checking

7:02 pm

Coreybbc

who's enable?

7:02 pm

JMHBEAN

ok

7:02 pm

Jacula

Seriously, Corey, the letters have to touch.

7:02 pm

Coreybbc

oh no, I know that now...it is just like Boggle...

7:02 pm

Coreybbc

I didnt realize that it was a rule

7:02 pm

Mom

thanks for the hug, Jac. night

7:02 pm

Coreybbc

I should have read them first haha

7:02 pm

Jacula

Enable is the dictionary (about 2 or 3 editions out of date) that this puzzle uses for its words.

7:03 pm

praise2him

clue for the de8 please?

7:03 pm

Jacula

Corey - before you try, you can't flip the grid around.

7:03 pm

pam

glad it went so well, red!

7:04 pm

Jacula

de8/55 is what Inspector Morse or Poirot, or Sherlock Holmes did.

7:04 pm

Coreybbc

no, i know. It really is just like boogle, except I think you get more letters.

7:04 pm

redturtlehead

me too, still feeling a little sick, so a quiet night was helpful...

7:04 pm

Coreybbc

no, i know. It really is just like boogle, except I think you get more letters

7:04 pm

Jacula

de8/50 means 'hated'.

7:04 pm

redturtlehead

I love Morse and Poirot...

7:08 pm

redturtlehead

7:08 pm

pam

7:08 pm

Jacula

ly6 = ly + 'To satisfy'. ly7 = plural form.

7:08 pm

moonwoof

Ly6/7 are ly + content

7:09 pm

moonwoof

7:12 pm

moonwoof

Hiya Jac! Nice bear.

7:12 pm

Jacula

I love that name! It sounds like a puppy out in the garden for the first time at night.

7:12 pm

Jacula

Yes, moon. He's cheeky, isn't he?

7:12 pm

moonwoof

You're a better clue for te7 than lingerie!

7:12 pm

redturtlehead

LOL Jac...I just had to bring in my puppy for woofing too much...

7:12 pm

Jacula

Thanks, moon!

7:13 pm

moonwoof

Sadly Jac, that's how many people say I act lol

7:13 pm

kristin

jbv - stupid word, add a letter to the 5/16 above it to make "the most"

7:13 pm

moonwoof

JBV - Shaft was the fl6 cat on the block

7:13 pm

Jacula

fl6/27 is the most untrustworthy.

7:14 pm

moonwoof

I like my version better lol

7:14 pm

redturtlehead

kristen I swear that word and when Phat is in the grid make me think the dictionary really needs an update...

7:14 pm

Jacula

Failing that, fl6.27 sounds like some wrong Shakesperian word for what birds do.

7:14 pm

pam

lol, moon. thought that should have a y, though.

7:14 pm

moonwoof

LOL Nice Jac

7:14 pm

kristin

jac, seriously that is what the word means?

7:15 pm

moonwoof

Well... Only the hippest for Shaft and "y" are so Done...

7:15 pm

JBV

thanks for all those clues - I needed ALL of them before landing on this strange word!

7:15 pm

gbuphallow

hey anyone have a hint for se6.24

7:15 pm

pam

is there another ly, besides the ly + content?

7:15 pm

Jacula

kristin - Yes. It's like a 'spiv' was in WW2.

7:15 pm

pam

guess you are right, moon!

7:15 pm

moonwoof

It's the superlative version of the word Fly.

7:15 pm

pythonx

fl6/27 is not in the enable dictionary

7:15 pm

moonwoof

Hi gbup

7:16 pm

JBV

I liked the Staft clue but I was looking for the y

7:16 pm

gbuphallow

hey

7:16 pm

moonwoof

It has to be in Some version of it, Python...

7:16 pm

pam

hi, gbup

7:16 pm

redturtlehead

yes pam there is a ly 4 and a ly5 its sort of a chemical term for breaking apart

7:17 pm

pam

ok, thanks, red. I will go a monkeying...

7:17 pm

moonwoof

se6.24 = what the south did before the Civil war

7:17 pm

redturtlehead

gbup, I don't have the wrod, I'd like a hint too.

7:17 pm

moonwoof

texas also se7d from the US

7:17 pm

redturtlehead

oh, oops, I do have it. I keep spelling that one wrong!

7:17 pm

Jacula

Oh, and before anyone asks, in WW2 a 'spiv' was the term for the guy (a bit like Del Boy from 'Only Fools And Horses') who sold stuff, no questions about where it came from, on the Black Market.

7:18 pm

gbuphallow

oh yay!

7:19 pm

moonwoof

Was that a good movie, Jac? I never saw it...

7:19 pm

pam

got the ly's--thanks

7:20 pm

redturtlehead

I would have clued them Pam, but I didn't really know how.

7:20 pm

Jacula

Moon - 'Only Fools and Horses' was a long-running comedy series here in UK.

7:20 pm

Jacula

(Google it!)

7:20 pm

pam

no worries, red. I guess I would say rhymes with head nits...

7:20 pm

moonwoof

Ah, ty... Sorry. I never really watch TV, but I'm looking for a couple of new movies to watch while I work..

7:21 pm

moonwoof

Oh Duh. Sorry Jac. I just never think to do that... ty for the reminder.

7:21 pm

Jacula

I have a huge collection of films (moves), moon. How come you can watch films while you work?

7:21 pm

Jacula

*movies

7:21 pm

moonwoof

However I was more interested in your opinion of it and I dont think I'd know how to google that lol

7:22 pm

redturtlehead

So jac, do you have a collection of moves too?

7:22 pm

moonwoof

I'm self employed, and alot of it I can do without looking, nowadays... Been at it a while.

7:25 pm

kristin

7:26 pm

JBV

7:26 pm

Andree

7:34 pm

Jacula

Both ed words have to do with whirlpools or Mr. Cochran.

7:34 pm

72 Temple Owl

jacs - about WHOM do you speak?

7:35 pm

moonwoof

ed's are as follows water current + past tense, ed4 of a knife+past and plural, the most of a knive and irritably

7:35 pm

redturtlehead

wierd, i must have misspelt earlier!

7:35 pm

72 Temple Owl

7:36 pm

Jacula

Ronon Dex or, the Hawaiian actor Jason Momoa, TO.

7:36 pm

Jacula

OOh, prissy TO!

7:36 pm

72 Temple Owl

7:36 pm

moonwoof

7:36 pm

Jacula

li6/27, TO, is things with tops on, past tense.

7:37 pm

Hi, all. I'm a Jason Momoa fan, too, Jac.

7:37 pm

72 Temple Owl

7:38 pm

72 Temple Owl

7:39 pm

moonwoof

the 5,6,7 arent all related. The 5 is a plural of the 4 and the 5/6 = "the devil is in the de6s"

7:39 pm

moonwoof

oops. that shoulda been 6/7

7:39 pm

Jacula

Hi, Jellen.

7:42 pm

LadyNatts

7:42 pm

Natasha

if I may kvetch for a moment--the public library in Madison just sent me to collections for an overdue item they never even tried to contact me about!

7:42 pm

pam

(glad to be impervious to your icon's charms, LOLOL)

7:42 pm

Andree

last 2 se words please

7:42 pm

JBV

ok, thanks moon - I got one - are they anagrams of each other?

7:43 pm

moonwoof

Ok... In moy older age I've also begun to appreciate 6 packs that aren't beer, also.

7:43 pm

pam

grrrrrrr, nat. That is just bogus.

7:43 pm

Jellen

I don't get the Desmond reference.

7:43 pm

Natasha

unfortunately it was a book on cd that was on the moving truck when it was stolen--and they want $165 for replacement.

7:43 pm

pam

LOLOl, moon....

7:43 pm

pam

an abbreviation, perhaps, for desmond...

7:43 pm

pam

Nat, what book?

7:43 pm

moonwoof

No, JBV the next is past tense

7:44 pm

moonwoof

ae + ***i Arnez

7:44 pm

rururocks

didn't get the diamond but htanks for the clue

7:44 pm

pam

yw, jellen

7:44 pm

pam

$165 for THAT? It's not rare.

7:45 pm

Jacula

Jellen - if you knew someone called Desmond, I doubt you'd keep on calling him that, You'd shorten his name.

7:45 pm

72 Temple Owl

pleaase some one put me out of my misery and clue me ge4/11

7:45 pm

JBV

thanks, I have them both now - just wondering - how long do you have to play babble before you stop seeing BRAND NEW words for the first time?

7:45 pm

Natasha

I know--I could buy myself a copy for $40.

7:45 pm

moonwoof

ge+vowel+what comics write to represent sleeping

7:46 pm

Natasha

grumble. I didn't even remember that it was on the truck. If only they'd tried to contact me first, but NO they send it to collections. I'm swearing softly to myself right now.

7:46 pm

rururocks

de 6 /21 the first de ?

7:46 pm

JBV

TO you'll probably say this aloud when you get it - ge 4/11 is the same as 4/7 and 4/6 but ending with the bottom right corner letter

7:46 pm

Jellen

Library editions are more expensive than commercial editions--that's why library budgets don't go far enough.

7:46 pm

pam

that just burns me, nat...

7:46 pm

moonwoof

Well, if you go out and read a dictionary J, not long lol

7:46 pm

LadyNatts

think I'll save the last 20 for after I make hubby's noodles

7:46 pm

moonwoof

But I dont really recommend that. They have lousy charachter development.

7:47 pm

pam

you should let them know that you don't appreciate being sent to collection--I would inform the board on down...

7:47 pm

Natasha

I understand Jellen--I'm more upset that they didn't even try to contact me

7:47 pm

moonwoof

First or 2nd ruru?

7:47 pm

72 Temple Owl

ty all - for the clues. i must turn in, hip is awful tonight, i ouldn't even go to work. see you later

7:47 pm

Andree

7:47 pm

Jellen

That does stink, Nat.

7:47 pm

rururocks

numero uno por favor

7:47 pm

Jacula

Moon - I met my 'newish' (nearly 5 years now) Other Half before I found Jason Momoa. The two are not dissimilar re the eyes, the look in the eyes, the colouring, the general manner. My Love isn't thin at present, but when he is he looks just as good and, to be honest, even when he's not thin he looks good to me.

7:47 pm

Natasha

although I'm also peeved (not really at the library), that not only have I had to replace EVERYTHING that I own, but now I have to come up with $165 for this thing.

7:47 pm

moonwoof

have a good night, TO. Hope you feel better tomorrow.

7:47 pm

JBV

I have been known to read a dictionary from time to time - this is probably the only place in the world I'd admit to that

7:47 pm

pam

Why are library editions more? Many Libraries buy from us--we are cheaper than the publisher--and they are the identical cookbook that we sell to the general public

7:48 pm

moonwoof

Si senor. Uno 6.24 = what Shelock of Poirot did.

7:48 pm

Natasha

the library editions of books on cd come in reinforced clamshells. not sure why the discs would cost that much more.

7:48 pm

redturtlehead

some library eds have reinforced covers etc for wear and tear...

7:48 pm

rururocks

uh moon... come on?

7:49 pm

moonwoof

Dont'cha hate that? You go an marry a perfectly good guy and then WHAM you find this Other guy...

7:49 pm

Jellen

I don't know, except some companies have replacement policies for damaged/lost discs.

7:49 pm

Jacula

ge4/11 is an expletive that profounds the name of Our Lord and ends with the last letter of the alphabet.

7:49 pm

Natasha

you'd think they could cut me some slack for the fact that it was stolen

7:50 pm

moonwoof

Seriously... Sherlock and Poirot were sleuths... also know as de6ives...

7:50 pm

Natasha

*rant mode off* .....deep breath.

7:50 pm

pam

oh, i didn't realize about the clamshells...

7:50 pm

Jacula

moon - it happens! But it happens to us too, afer childbirth.

7:50 pm

rururocks

I need the first one.. have those thanks though

7:51 pm

pam

can you send them a copy of the police report and make arrangements? Or, do collection agencies no longer make arrangements

7:51 pm

moonwoof

I know. Life is an ever changing thing. but Dern it anyway.

7:51 pm

moonwoof

Oooo. sorry ruru. That one's a homynim of semi truck fuel

7:51 pm

Natasha

I contacted the library and they are going to remove me from collections, but I still have to pay the full amount

7:51 pm

moonwoof

More Pho-en-et-ic

7:52 pm

Jacula

Also, as a former slimming class tutor (now dodging her former pupils if they've kept the weight off), it's not all about the body size and shape! That only matters where health is concerned.

7:52 pm

7:53 pm

Jacula

Pam- time to either finish the grid fas or go to bed and avert the migraine.

7:53 pm

pam

7:53 pm

Natasha

my old housemate and I used to play a game where we would randomly select three words a week from the dictionary and we had to work them each into conversation once a day. Twas fun and vocabulary building.

7:53 pm

pam

Well, I think it won't become a full-blown, thanks, jac.

7:53 pm

Scrabbler

We have had snow all day, so maybe this is a weather headache.

7:54 pm

pam

7:54 pm

Natasha

7:54 pm

Hi Scrabbs

7:54 pm

moonwoof

I would have felt it was fun, natasha, until I got stuck with "zooglea" Then I might draw a line lol

7:54 pm

Natasha

we were supposed to get 4-8 inches and got a dusting of snow here. school was still canceled, for what reason I cannot determine

7:55 pm

pam

Oh, yeah, nat. sinus--exacerbated by a cyst--and weather-related. And, the occasional dang-it-all migraine for migraine's sake....

7:55 pm

Jacula

One nerd joins another, Scrabbs.xx

7:55 pm

Natasha

LOL, moonwoof

7:55 pm

Scrabbler

Pam, it seems you take more medication than me--big gun stuff.

7:55 pm

pam

They cancelled, in all likelihood, because sometimes, they don't cancel and get screwed... 7 inches here

7:56 pm

Scrabbler

We have approx 6 inches so far and it is still coming down.

7:56 pm

redturtlehead

no real snow here, but cold as many things.

7:56 pm

Natasha

yeah, but the forecast was changed at 3 (which I know thanks to insomnia) and they canceled at 6.

7:56 pm

Jellen

Could I have a clue for the last de 6/21, please?

7:56 pm

Jacula

Despite my lady-diverting icon her, can |I clue anyone for grid words?

7:56 pm

pam

Oh, scrabs, i see.!!! I take the aleve without the big gun 5 out of 6 times. But when they eyes cross, or the hormones act up, too, i take it...

7:56 pm

Scrabbler

Jacula---I love being a nerd. I am also a dork, a geek, and a doofus.

7:56 pm

moonwoof

Nerds of the world agglomerate!

7:56 pm

7:57 pm

Natasha

my kids still found enough snow to build a bunch of snowmen--a snowman horror house, a la Calvin and Hobbes.

7:57 pm

moonwoof

The last one Jellen, is another word for hate

7:57 pm

Jacula

7:58 pm

it's funny - reminds me of when I was studying for a spelling bee as a child - my mom told me to read the dictionary and I didn't want to, then I lost the spelling bee on a word that began with "b" - never lived it down!

7:59 pm

gbuphallow

last two.... ed6.27 and li6.27... any helpful hints?

7:59 pm

moonwoof

Nice with the sled. Wish I'd thought of that one.

7:59 pm

7:59 pm

8:00 pm

ed6.27 is past tense of a water current

8:00 pm
