I think he was born in Spokane (does that sound right)... His changes in how they make the pieces transformed Studio Glass art. His 5 to 7 year projects from year's past evolved into his current huge pieces, now displaed in museums, conservatories and a few private home. Did you like the exhibit there?

1:32 am

Just1Mar

thx spritey!

some of my favorites are the brilliant colored bowl shaped pieces that resemble huge flower bowls.

2:02 am

sprite

pink: hubby is diagnosed with gout (bad) but not reuma (very very good). He has gotten new meds and those help, and he is back on his feet (literally). Back to work even. I am dead dead tired, having trouble coping with the little challenges of life atm.
Like yesterday: leaking heater/boiler, needing to be firm with the maintenance guy, and my son being bullied by a big bully AND the bully's mum, and things getting out of hand so far that the teacher was crying because of the wicked mother of the bully.

2:02 am

SamanthaJoy

Thanks Sprite!

Tea is dinner

Sprite that is why you tell them that the police will be involved if that parent can not control themselves and the child

2:04 am

herinfernallady

Monteral would agree with that.

2:04 am

sprite

police will not do anything, lady

2:04 am

herinfernallady

dang

2:04 am

pinkhatlil

Glad to hear hubby is back on his feet...WOW something needs to be done about that parent and child, could the School Governers do anything

2:05 am

sprite

I have more hope for the school. The mother is outside herself for us involving the school in solving it, so I guess I struck a sore spot with her. That is a good thing.

2:05 am

pinkhatlil

hello monte1

2:05 am

herinfernallady

Sprite glad about hubby

2:06 am

sprite

we have had trouble with this kid for 3 years now, and therefore I know I cannot work it out with the mum... no guidance there. Bullies are made, not born.

2:06 am

herinfernallady

And thanks Jill for that tip about garlic stinks

2:07 am

herinfernallady

Love to help you Sprite bullies really ?me of

2:07 am

and thanks all, for thinking of my hubby! He had a helluva time with it, and we really hope it will stay put now, but seeing him up and about and finding outlets for all his energy is wonderful again :)

2:08 am

I hope it works for you, herin! It gets rid of fishy smells too

2:08 am

ar 6/ 18 ?

2:08 am

herinfernallady

mmmm sounds good

2:08 am

herinfernallady

I hope Lickety gives Mr Pres her pressies

2:09 am

Just1Mar

that's the only one I'm missing farruska

2:09 am

Farruska

:D

2:09 am

sprite

me too, lady! At first I felt bad for the kid as well, but I am past that. My kids matter more to me. And this bully is beyond help, unless it is professional. He claims he has a right to be like this. His words: "I am the shepherd. All other kids are just sheep. They need me to guide them." Yes, I am serious.

2:09 am

Farruska

and ar 6/ 21 ? I'm stuck

2:09 am

cool girl

morning everyone how are u all

2:09 am

herinfernallady

That is not good. THat sounds very very bad

2:09 am

herinfernallady

Hi Cool

Plural of ar5--what a knight wears while jousting

armorhow old is this shepherd wannabe? He sounds dangerous.

2:10 am

pinkhatlil

wow that is some serious sh**!! ...hi cool girl!

2:10 am

SamanthaJoy

Sprite, I read an article recently about psychopaths and sociopaths that says that 1) they ARE born, 2) it may be genetic, and 3) there are far, far more of them than most people realize

2:10 am

Farruska

ty mar

2:10 am

cool girl

this grid is hard

2:10 am

sprite

jilli, he is 11. And I agree.

2:11 am

jillibus

oops -- forgot to hit enter

2:11 am

sprite

Sam, he has 3 brothers and they are all bullies. It might be genetic. But I cannot help but seeing that the upbringing has a big influence.

2:11 am

pinkhatlil

morning cool girl, again!!!

2:11 am

SamanthaJoy

It's j ust that most people think of "Silence fo the Lambs" when they think of socipaths, and it's generally not like that--it's rare for the personality type to match up with sadism, for example

2:12 am

herinfernallady

Sprite does this kid hurt animals

2:12 am

sprite

true, Sam! But this kid... his only happy moments are when he can humiliate or hurt another kid. He never has fun.
Lady, I do not know that.

2:12 am

SamanthaJoy

That's an indication of sadism, not necessarily of socio- or psychopathism

2:12 am

pinkhatlil

mother sounds as if she was dragged up and not brought up!

2:12 am

gran

How many words today please

2:13 am

herinfernallady

If this kid is hurting animals he needs to be stopped now before he turns bad.

2:13 am

pinkhatlil

144 gran!

2:13 am

SamanthaJoy

An even gross -- 144

2:13 am

turns bad? He's already turned bad

2:14 am

cool girl

sorry pink ive been up all night with sheriff same thing as nad still coming shopping at 9

2:15 am

herinfernallady

Jill children that torture animals and children can go from bad to worse. Its quite horrid. And his mother probably has home problems that no one knows about

2:15 am

pinkhatlil

you said half 9 latest 10 to me last night?

2:15 am

sprite

I have involved the school, since the problem initiated at school. My son was asked by the teacher to help her and because of that, the bully thought it necessary to hurt my son and ruin his bag. So I will hear more today... headmaster is back today and will look into the matter further. But the school has had it with the kid AND the mother as well.

2:15 am

Farruska

argh

2:15 am

pinkhatlil

i think maybe he needs the hospital cool?

2:15 am

cool girl

can u be ready earlier or do u want me to wait till 9.30

2:16 am

sprite

your kids ill, cool?

2:16 am

herinfernallady

Sprite see if the school can replace your sons bag.

2:16 am

cool girl

2:16 am

I am not worried about the bag, lady. I want the bullying to stop.

2:16 am

herinfernallady

Hey Sprite there is a K in the grid just to iss you off.

2:16 am

2:17 am

2:17 am

jillibus

are the bully's bully brothers older or younger?

2:17 am

cool girl

2:18 am

herinfernallady

My dad actually terrorised this kid that pinned me down in the bush and broke my bike rack. He went around to the kids parents house and told him off

2:18 am

sprite

I don't know, catep. Can't look inside their home. But yeah, probably some abuse issues there.

2:18 am

cool girl

pink can u clue me the 2 ae /4s please or anyone else if they can help pleaseeeeee

2:19 am

flosey

2:19 am

Just1Mar

2:19 am

lynxxx

Cool - I don't think there is any ae's

2:19 am

sprite

yeah, my husband once pulled this kid's ear when the kid was giving him sh*t... and of course that only works against us, still. No matter that that happened after 2 years of constant bullying... my hubby is the bad guy in their eyes.

2:19 am

Just1Mar

ai 4x3

2:19 am

pinkhatlil

cool the clues are from yesterdays grid...todays clues not up as Lickety is probably with Mr President!

2:19 am

herinfernallady

Sadly i actually feel for the bully. What a crappy back ground if hes acting like that.

2:20 am

herinfernallady

LIckety is with the Pres and taken the kids to her

2:20 am

cool girl

my clues are not matching my grid

2:20 am

sprite

yeah, well, as I said, lady, I am past that. My kids matter more to me. My daughter is actually terrified by the boy and the mother. I just want that to stop.

2:20 am

pinkhatlil

non of ours are cool!

2:20 am

catep

me to lady... have to wonder what the kid has to dela with... tis often the bully who is most afraid

2:20 am

2:20 am

sprite

Sam, sleep well

2:20 am

2:21 am

2:21 am

herinfernallady

Night Sam

2:21 am

lynxxx

bye Sam

2:21 am

sprite

it is sad, that in our society people care more about the perpetrators than about the victims.

2:21 am

catep

sprite you have my sympathy though... i was bullied at school by some girls..... they used physicala nd mental abuse,...but I can still feel for them... I have come out the better person

2:22 am

Just1Mar

it's like that here in Canada too, spritey :(

2:22 am

jillibus

2:23 am

pinkhatlil

cool everyones list looks like yours at this moment in time (yesterdays), Lickety has not sent the new clues for this grid yet as he is with his wife!!

2:23 am

herinfernallady

Sprite hun. I am saying that for a child to act in this many heads need to roll. When its a kid both of the kids are victims when its an adult there is only one victim as you are old enough to know better

2:23 am

Just1Mar

there 6 of them farruska

2:23 am

catep

I don't feel more for the bullyingI just wonder what he is dealing with.... maybe he's just plain nasty... we are not there and do not see it or are part of it so it's easy to sit back and comment....kisses and hope it goes well

2:23 am

pinkhatlil

night jilli

2:23 am

sprite

I am feeling for my kids, and the other victims. Their only crime is being decent kids. They should not be punished for that by being beaten, terrorised, falsely accused of theft, having their stuff ruined etc. etc.

2:24 am

herinfernallady

THat is so true sprite. I do hope the school helps you

2:24 am

catep

true sprite...as i said we are not there or involved so can comment with out attachment.... I hope i do not soundhorrible... just being a true libran...lol

2:25 am

catep

haiving said all that if it was my baby girl i'd kill 'em

2:25 am

sprite

and I salute the school for taking this seriously and trying to solve it without dispelling the kid right away. But they care about protecting the kids that do behave, and I think that is very good.

2:25 am

herinfernallady

Very hard balance and very good of the school not to ignore it

2:26 am

herinfernallady

I have the RO 7 what am i missing please

5:35 am

Haz1558

westford

will I have to google her or will you tell?

5:38 am

Atalante

look in my flickr

5:38 am

Haz1558

The pinkness was overwhelming, but a touch more mascara would have brought out her eyes. The dress was inspired.

5:38 am

westford

ok

5:38 am

Atalante

you think? more mascara? maybe another trowel-load?

5:39 am

Atalante

for the PINK pic

5:39 am

Farruska

5:41 am

Atalante

5:41 am

westford

I'll be back later ty all for the fun

5:42 am

Farruska

clue to ra4,4, so4,5 and/or to4,4 would be appreciated :/ I'll send some cake your way :D

5:43 am

Haz1558

so4/5 - a plural word, another word for turf or earth

5:43 am

hillary

there are two ra4s, one falls from the sky, the other is ra + **ght-time. the so4/5 is the plural of mud bricks you build houses with and there are two to4/4s, one is a spelling of the five books of Moses and the other is to+ **ting out in a restaurant.

5:43 am

Haz1558

to4/4 - add a vowel to the end of the foot digit?

5:43 am

hillary

... or that

5:43 am

Farruska

thank you both

5:44 am

Atalante

loads of babblets today

5:44 am

hillary

wot's a babblet?

5:44 am

Haz1558

Also to4/4 - Miss Spelling

5:45 am

Haz1558

There are loads of to4/4 now that I look!

5:45 am

Atalante

5:45 am

Farruska

5:45 am

hillary

yes and the ripping of fabric and the spanish bull

5:45 am

hillary

to4/s that is

5:46 am

hillary

there are a couple more too but i guess you're ok farruska?

5:47 am

phandmd

I think I have tried every combo possible for the OR word, but it is still eluding me, pls help

5:47 am

hillary

there's a double consonant in the middle

5:47 am

Farruska

the to4,4 I'm missing is the one next to the to5,10 that is a plural

5:47 am

Haz1558

or4/4 consists of a double helping of a consonant sandwiched between two different vowels.

5:48 am

Farruska

and the so4,5 I understood what it is but still haven't got it

5:48 am

hillary

that's the singular of the plural, no?

5:48 am

phandmd

that's it! thank so much never tried double r

5:49 am

phandmd

is it the lawn mower TO you are looking for?

5:50 am

hillary

the so4/5 is a plural, the second-last letter is a consonant, the word rhymes with the opposite of even numbers

5:51 am

Farruska

I've tried every possible combination. I'm blind:(

5:51 am

carleekat

HI, MonkeyGames... the morning news was loaded with terrible reports from all over the nation! Hi, Uni... glad you are more temperate! LOL

7:00 am

nancethefan

it's supposed to reach 75 deg. F here - that means weather that warm this time of year produces strong winds

7:00 am

Scarlet

Oh, Lucien... you seem to get the worst of it all the time! Did your grandsons help some more with the shovelling and de-icing?

7:00 am

MonkeyGames

Haven't seen the news today. What's going on over there? Hard to watch news sometimes with a busy 3-year-old.

7:01 am

P.J.

Scarlet

Some day, when the chat is not busy, Luc, I'd like to hear more about that condition of your daughter's... it sounds so troublesome... and such a burden for a young woman. You are your wife sound like such special, special people! :-)

7:08 am

Aloyisius

7:10 am

Scarlet

We are awaiting the big "reveal" tonight too, Aloy... four states... the truth will be revealed!! Later, hodag... be well, smile often and keep a good thought!

7:10 am

Aloyisius

you really think so, montreal? Hope so!

7:10 am

montreal13

am very familiar with your 2nd option scarlet..."we'll talk later"

7:10 am

montreal13

just hoping actually Aloy...

7:11 am

Scarlet

Yes, Luc.

7:11 am

Ankhorite

Happy Birthday, Nance. Hi, all. Virginia, 70s today with high high winds and rain expected.

7:11 am

montreal13

i've become leary of mrs Clinton in the last year...

7:11 am

Aloyisius

hi to pinkhat too... montreal, in my heart of hearts, I don't think Ohio will go that way... but at least I can hope

7:12 am

Scarlet

Ankh-a-riffic!! G'Day to thee!!

7:12 am

Ankhorite

Hi, Scarlet, you're still looking saintly!

7:12 am

Scarlet

I feel ambiguous about Ohio too, Aloy, but I have bee surprised before! Oh, Ankh, no time to change St. David...

7:13 am

pinkhatlil

hello aloy, you've confirmed that i am not invisible!

7:13 am

montreal13

i think it's scandalous that both democratic candidates are saying they woulb pull out of NAFTA...just so they would get votes in Ohio :unbelievable !!

7:13 am

Ankhorite

Aloy, I don't know whom I want to win. I know who I think would be a winning candidate this fall... the whole thing is so sad, why do we have to choose between these two? Why couldn't it have been different years?

7:13 am

MonkeyGames

Sorry, I saw you too... Hi!

7:14 am

Ankhorite

Montreal, come on, all my life EVERY candidate but one has told Iowa they wanted more ethanol production. Nattering about changing NAFTA (pulling out being the last resort) is nothing to them.

7:14 am

Ankhorite

Scarlet, I've had the heart-hamster for weeks, no time to fiddle with it.

7:14 am

montreal13

you may have a point there ankhor - but from where we stand...

7:14 am

Scarlet

That hideous little ferret, Ross Perot, is looking like a visionary in retrospect... LOL...

7:15 am

ardilla

yah, the accursed h has been conquered

7:15 am

montreal13

lol scarlet

7:15 am

montreal13

yay ardilla ! - only 8 found here...

7:15 am

MonkeyGames

Anyone have a clue for the RO?

7:16 am

montreal13

plenty of ROs monkey !

7:16 am

Aloyisius

lol, Scarlet... quite a description..

7:16 am

gracewer

which RO ?

7:16 am

Scarlet

I have what the chickens did last night, Monkey...

7:16 am

MonkeyGames

Oops, sorry. I mean the OR.

7:16 am

Scarlet

;-) Aloy...

7:17 am

Ankhorite

LOL -- Perot not a ferret -- I wanted him to be a chihuahua, to go with the elephant and donkey -- pero, like the Spanish word for dog? And his followers could have been... Perotistas! Like Evita's Peronistas!

7:18 am

montreal13

or4 = o + double cons. + vowel

7:18 am

montreal13

lol ankhor !

7:18 am

MonkeyGames

Thanks!

7:18 am

Aloyisius

lol, ankhor..

7:18 am

Ankhorite

Thanks, Montreal. Couldn't get that. I got down to 27 last night without the clue list!

7:18 am

montreal13

excellent ankhor !

7:19 am

Scarlet

You have elevated that creature to a much higher plane than I could have imagined possible, Ankh.. LOL

7:19 am

Ankhorite

Thanks for liking my Perot nomenclature! He vanished from the public scene before I could really pitch it to editorial cartoonists. Which animal, Scarlet? Hamsters, ferrets, or chi-wow-wows?

7:20 am

Scarlet

Maggot springs to mind immediately...

7:20 am

Aloyisius

ewww, Scarlet...

7:21 am

Uniquity

Mosh is not a word???

7:21 am

montreal13

well there's "pero" meaning "but" and "perro" meaning "dog" - both fit the personnage...

7:21 am

Scarlet

'ZAkly, Aloy...

7:21 am

Scarlet

Not for Enable, Uni.

7:21 am

montreal13

no Uni, tried it too...

7:21 am

Aloyisius

imagine if he HAD made it.. four years of him on the news, etc... and you know how I feel about watching the shrub

7:21 am

Scarlet

I like chihuahuas, ferrets and hamsters...

7:22 am

Aloyisius

... almost eight years of purgatory

7:22 am

Scarlet

The Shrub will go down in our history as one of our greatest national shames, Aloy...

7:22 am

montreal13

60 left, must get ready - have breakfast with a bunch of old friends "emphasis on friends" - BBL - happy babbling all - "POOF"

7:22 am

Scarlet

Until later, Lucien!! :-)

7:22 am

Aloyisius

Multiple poofing must be addressed for Luc!

7:24 am

Aloyisius

mia is in the grid (-:

7:25 am

Scarlet

Aloy, we were talking with the younger generation the other night, and I told them that I cannot remember such a sea-change in our country during an election.... it is history either way, but the excitement is real... Ms. Clinton could do worse than be the Veep!

7:25 am

Scarlet

Again, Aloy! :-) She is giving you a secret kiss...

7:26 am

ardilla

yah, 40 left

7:26 am

Aloyisius

do you think the HIll would accept a VP... do you think Obama would offer it? Guess whatever makes the ticket strongest..

7:26 am

Scarlet

Wow, ardilla! Go, go!!

7:26 am

ardilla

thanks scarlet

7:26 am

Ankhorite

Whoops, bye Montreal... Scarlet, I disagree.

7:26 am

Calqhoon

first ar 6 please anyone?

7:27 am

Scarlet

Yes, the DNC may be pressing her in that direction... as for Mr. O, he will realize that whatever is best for the party will be best for the nation... About what, Ankh?

7:27 am

MonkeyGames

Still stuck on an HO4. Have frost, things bulls have on their heads, and not hetero.

7:27 am

Ankhorite

If HRC wins, she MUST have Obama as VP to get his voters to the polls in the fall. But, sadly, if he is on top, he should avoid her like the plague. She brings nothing to the ticket he doesn't already have, except for the eduring hatred of the far right.

7:27 am

7:31 am

bfsog

7:32 am

MonkeyGames

It's not like a US barbecue sauce, but it is pretty spicy.

7:32 am

lil*monkey

hmmm, i guess you're too far away for me to swing by and have some bacon chunks

7:58 am

Ankhorite

Bye, Lady! Not so bad, Scarlet. Mine was surgically broken once, his twice, to repair the damage from the original breaks. He broke his just last spring in the first HOUR of a camping trip miles from nowhere. A wrasslin' match for the marshmallow bag.

7:59 am

Scarlet, Colony Records on Broadway must have a recording of the show...they have everything...will try to find out...do you want the show album?

Thanks, folks. I think it'll be fine. He was concerned about it but not traumatized, and he's only been sleeping without a diaper for a week, and only for naps. This is the first accident. He's 100% daylight potty trained now. If he does have trouble with it later, well, so it goes, but I don't think I need to expect it.

8:52 am

Babs1

my daughter was potty friendly by about the same age--then I sent her to a pre-school--didn't know it but they told the kids they couldn't get up to go potty during nap time...it took 3 years to get her trained again and over that trauma--don't know how long it went on 'til i discovered as she lost her "training!"

9:02 am

As in, "Oh, MARY!" I guess you have to hear it a few times to recognize it.

9:02 am

Ankhorite

Yeah, from Wizard of Oz.

9:02 am

nancethefan

"nance" is a "friend of dorothy"?

9:02 am

Angela

Just reading the chat log - has anyone seen NancyBoy - he used to be on here a lot...

9:03 am

Angela

hey p2h and scarlet!

9:03 am

Ankhorite

I personally think "sissy-boy" is a corruption of "cisesbeo" -- I need to check spelling on that. But I think that's where we get sissyboy and sissy, not from "sister"

9:03 am

Scarlet

We have a delightful Babbler, named NancyBoy who is very, very funny and a total wit!

9:03 am

dcseain

'friend of Dorothy' comes from idolization of Judy Garland, aka Dame Judy

9:03 am

Ankhorite

Maybe cicesbeo.

9:03 am

Ankhorite

Yep, what Seain says.

9:03 am

nancethefan

so it has nothing to do with the word "nance"?

9:04 am

nancethefan

"dorothy" that is

9:04 am

Angela

I enjoyed him very much - really great guy. I haven't been on with any real regularity so I didn't know if he still came around

9:05 am

Angela

thanks p2h

9:05 am

dcseain

nancy certainly comes from nance

The 'o' tiles are confusing. Too many directions to go with them ... and I choose the wrong direction and forget there is another direction to try.

11:00 am

Yay Monty! I have been weak for awhile, this would only be my third completion without list if i pull it off

We are expecting a heat wave here until the end of the week

11:01 am

No, definitely not warm enough for eating outside here, unless you're REALLY fond of the stuff.

11:01 am

11:01 am

Atalante

What's a heat wave again? I forget.

Girding loins before I do, Ata.

11:02 am

we're 4 monts away from ice cream (outside that is) - ...lol

11:03 am

Haz1558

Ooh, the pinkness, and is that a Donny Osmond cap left over from the wedding?

11:03 am

Merk

I have some Schwan's fudge mint stuff that is delicious, but I keep it downstairs in the freezer so I don't get tempted. I have the fat free sugarless stuff in the kitchen. Not too tempting there or anywhere.

11:03 am

Uniquity

Poor FM!!!

11:03 am

Vicuna

Aargh! The mad Ata strikes again!

11:03 am

Uniquity

You may never EVER see another picture of me, young Ata!

11:04 am

Uniquity

Aww, Ata/Vivi hug!

11:04 am

Haz1558

Yes, and we'd love to see what you look like, Vicuna. You could send a pic to Atalante.

11:05 am

Atalante

Vi sent me the gorgeousest thing

11:05 am

Merk

goodnight ardilla

11:05 am

Haz1558

She did? Was it a cat of glory?

11:05 am

Michnick

Well they're predicting 29 C here for Friday, that's over 84 F

11:05 am

Atalante

a dog of glory!

11:05 am

Uniquity

I bet it was a picture of me :)

11:05 am

Vicuna

Oh well. I may as well be hanged for a pink sheep as a lamb. I'll rummage around for a picture this afternoon.

11:06 am

Haz1558

Oh, even better!

11:06 am

ardilla

good night merk

11:06 am

Vicuna

That's funny, Ata, because just yesterday it occurred to me that you ought to be getting that by now.

11:06 am

praise2him

I wanna see a pic of you uni!!

11:06 am

Atalante

woot!

11:06 am

Haz1558

I've just had an awful thought. What would happen if the cat of glory got lost/cleared off during the move? These things happen.

11:06 am

Atalante

can I scan your wonderful Hobbit in to show ppl, Vi?

11:06 am

Vicuna

Sure.

11:07 am

Atalante

butter on the paws. always works

11:07 am

Haz1558

Non-dairy butter?

11:07 am

Vicuna

Butter on the paws keeps cats from getting lost? You mean, because they stay put licking at it for so long, or because they stick to the couch, or what?

11:08 am

Dindrane

ar6,18 anyone?

11:08 am

Atalante

I'm not sure .... but the old wives tale always brought out here when people move house

11:08 am

montreal13

pl or ar5

11:08 am

Haz1558

It's always something that people say about doing to cats, I've no idea if it works. I don't think it would do furniture or carpets much good.

There's also a saying here 'A Saturday flit (move) is a short sit' - meaning if you move house on a Saturday, you won't stay in your new house for long. Some superstitious mothers take it to mean even more and won't leave hospitals on Saturdays in case they're back in again quickly.

11:10 am

Vicuna

Glad you got that, Dindrane. I was midway through typing the less erudite clue in case it would be needed.

11:10 am

11:13 am

spellit

We had visited the landings long ago. We have French friends we have known for 30+ years and owed a visit to Caen

11:14 am

Vicuna

ha6/24 - to hurt + opp of out

11:14 am

Haz1558

ha6/24 - if you have the ha4/6 (damage or hurt) add the opposite of out to it.

11:14 am

spellit

We hoped to go together last November but events prevented that so I had a nostalgic visit alone. They were all wonderful to me

11:14 am

caitlyn

Im okay thanks Uni and you?Hi nance ,TO Vic MLF ,Haz and anyone I missed

11:14 am

MLFAN17

TY haz finally got tit

11:15 am

Haz1558

That was nice to catch up with friends. When I visited cemeteries in Normandy years ago I was overwhelmed by their scale.

11:15 am

spellit

Yes it is unbelievable isn't it

11:15 am

Haz1558

It's amazing, and all so beautifully kept.

11:16 am

spellit

Now I keep finding French words in the grid - not much help

11:16 am

caitlyn

I went there a long time ago with my dad Haz,it was very moving

11:16 am

spellit

The Caen Memorial exhibition is worth seeing too

11:16 am

Atalante

check my flickr again!

11:16 am

Haz1558

So many of the men were just in their teens, hardly old enough to be away from home, never mind fight in a war.

11:17 am

caitlyn

My dad was in the normandy landings day 3 so it meant a lot to him to return

11:17 am

spellit

Rows upon rows of stones stretching as far as you can see

11:17 am

Uniquity

That's fantastic Ata! (And Vi!)

11:17 am

MLFAN17

could i have a clue for the second HO 4/5 please

11:18 am

Atalante

she's so clever! its all layers of tissue-y paper!

11:18 am

Haz1558

The second ho4/5 is an anagram of the first, just switch the order of the last two letters.

11:18 am

Uniquity

I love it...Hobbit, not war

11:19 am

MLFAN17

ty

11:19 am

Vicuna

Glad you like it. Always dangerous to see things again and wonder whether maybe it doesn't look a little lumpy or disproportionate, but *shrug*, It's the thought that counts. And it was fun to do.

11:19 am

Michnick

What is the 1st ho Haz?

11:19 am

Atalante

its FAB, Vi. FABFABFABFABFAB

11:19 am

Vicuna

11:20 am

Uniquity

It's gorgeous!

11:20 am

Haz1558

I was in Caen years ago and remember talking to an old woman who had been through the British bombardment prior to the landings. She talked about waking up under rubble and having to spit dust out of her mouth. It was fascinating to have first-hand accounts of what happened.

11:20 am

MLFAN17

is the last 5/12 ho related to either of the ho 6/21's?

11:20 am

Haz1558

ho4/5 the first is a type of frost

11:20 am

Atalante

I particularly love the picture of the dog and cheetah too, whatever adventures they were getting up to!

11:20 am

Haz1558

It's the root word for both ho6 words.

11:20 am

Michnick

OK got them both, ty~

11:20 am

Caen was so wrecked that it has many new buildings although the Chateau survived

11:21 am

Vicuna

Just having a good time together.

11:21 am

Haz1558

St Malo was similarly wrecked but they just rebuilt it as it had been - very clever!

11:21 am

Uniquity

How many ho5 are there? (please)

11:21 am

Vicuna

Dog and cheetah, not war, as Uni made sure to clarify.

11:22 am

Haz1558

There are 4 ho 5 words.

11:22 am

Atalante

how wonderful to be able to imagine cheetahs at that age though. she sounds like me, I had an imaginary puma when I was 5

11:22 am

Uniquity

Thanks Haz

11:23 am

Haz1558

You're welcome, Uniquity.

I pretended to be a librarian a lot too...put cards in my books and rented them to my stuffed animals

11:29 am

Atalante

yep! LOL I made my mother borrow books

11:29 am

I played librarian, too! Also teacher. But mostly fairy.

My aunties had to borrow mine..and pay late fees :)

11:30 am

Atalante

I dont think I ever played teacher. Doctor, yes. Librarian. From about 8 onwards I was going to be an expert on the lymphatic system and went round trying to draw it for hours

11:31 am

Michnick

Got the ho. Finished the h's

Well, there is an ho 5,14 - ho** erectus and plural

11:31 am

ho 5 14 - we aer ***sapiens

11:31 am

Uniquity

ha 5,14 is to hurt and it's plural

11:31 am

Vicuna

A noble goal, Ata. Did you ever become a lymphatic doctor? Because I really did become a teacher. (Never really became a fairy, though.)

11:31 am

Uniquity

Ata - Never did doctor unless others made me. I was never science, ALWAYS books and teaching

11:31 am

I was gong to be the best nurse in the world and work in Africa,I ended up as a telephonist

11:32 am

Any clue for the ni?

11:32 am

Oh, Uni, all I've ever actually wanted to be as long as I can remember was an author. =)

11:33 am

I figure that is a story we will find alot here on babble :)

11:33 am

Uniquity

Going listless is hard! 48 more

11:33 am

Vicuna

Yep. People who like words, people who play Babble, and people who want to write have to be highly correlated.

11:34 am

Uniquity

Its so nice to have a community of people who share goals etc though...I love it. It gives me hope

11:34 am

Michnick

TY Monty, don't get it but I got it.

11:34 am

MLFAN17

okay that is really weird i had the word right a while ago and it just now went in

What sorts of stuff are you planning to write, Uni?

11:34 am

MLFAN17

TY got the other IN word

for me listless is a way of life should I not succumb to apathy

11:35 am

caitlyn

Well said Uni!!

11:35 am

Uniquity

Oh, I never knew what I was going to write, I was jsut going to do it. I am writing a scathing expose of the awful student loan system in NS/Canada right now, lol. Well....I have many intentions of continuing the little bit I already did

11:35 am

caitlyn

Hi BabRab

11:36 am

Uniquity

I have too many things I am paying for (such as school) to take up my time over babble! I am skipping my next class and babbling instead, but ONLY because my prof won't be there and the replacement sucks.
