Can anyone help me figure this "tile stat" stuff out...I'm not new to Babble, but I've just "paid" to play and I don't really see the advantage yet...
12:58 am
BrokenStasis
Yes! We just had 8 inches, and we're getting 8 more soon
12:59 am
pigeonman
234. Finishing tomorrow. Luck to all.
12:59 am
mymuseisme
Angelsong's page is a big help, but basically the stats are 4 letters is point value, 5 is x2 point value, 6 letters is x 3 point value, etc.
12:59 am
BrokenStasis
Take care :)
12:59 am
KIMMYDEE
For instance, how do you all know what en7 means?
12:59 am
Just1Mar
well paying is a one shot deal kimmy.....more like a contribution
1:00 am
mymuseisme
Also, you retain tile and word stats, get to play the theme game, get Lickety Expert, etc.
1:00 am
KIMMYDEE
How do you all know that there is an "en7"?
1:00 am
Just1Mar
en7 means the word starts with en and is 7 letters long
1:00 am
jillibus
Kimmy -- the top left tile shows 0/13 to start with, meaning you haven't got any of the 13 words starting with the top left T -- and so on
1:00 am
BrokenStasis
I'm surprised the word leanto doesn't work, I think it's lean-to, though
1:01 am
KIMMYDEE
ty jilli
1:01 am
mymuseisme
tried that also, keep hoping enable updates
1:01 am
jillibus
Kimmy -- you need to get Lickety's list which gives the first two letters of each word and its score
1:01 am
mymuseisme
also, Kimmy see my explanation re tile points
1:02 am
jillibus
Kimmy, I think you've been away for a while -- yes?
1:02 am
KIMMYDEE
Thanks Jilli and Mymuse!
1:03 am
KIMMYDEE
I play almost everyday but only for about a half an hour to an hour
1:03 am

For other interesting things, check out Angelsong's babble page under friends of babble
1:04 am
jillibus
And, Kim -- in your My Account, did you chack the "Show Profile" box in the upper right corner? That will give you your flag etc.
1:04 am

well, if I have ONE thing going for me, it is that I just never give up. It is my downfall, but also a ta6, I hope. It is what makes the difference. Even my therapist marvels at it. So I hope you are right, Dee... may God reward my not giving up ;)

9:34 am
frantique
we had him for years! he would hibernate each year. amazing and some times people would find him walking on the expressway and return him
9:34 am
aprilrain
yeah-- they don't let go. I hand feed my turtle and he is really good about not biting me. But sometimes he does accidentally (like if the food floats away) and you just have to stay still until he lets go, which can be hard. but if you try to shake him off, he'll bite harder-- it's instinct
9:34 am
frantique
we wrote our phone number on his shell with that water proof yellow goo that they had in the 1960's

My dad wanted a few of those little green turtles but they are illegal here in NY
9:39 am
flosey
thanks Dan, didn't have that one either
9:40 am
aprilrain
yeah, you have to have a special license in NY
9:40 am
aprilrain
I have a painted. He's gorgeous
9:40 am
frantique
in manhattan in china town they sell them on street corners. They flash their coat open and inside they have a little jar of them LOL
9:40 am
frantique
I heard that some raise them to make soup!
9:40 am
ardilla
i have a yellow eared slider
9:41 am
ardilla
she is sleeping right now
9:41 am
frantique
are yellow eared sliders little?
9:41 am
frantique
here in NY they ave to be atleast 4 " big to be legal
9:41 am
ardilla
she fits in two hands
9:41 am
frantique
oh shes big !
9:41 am
ardilla
so about 6 inches
9:42 am
ardilla
i got her at the flower shop here
9:42 am
aprilrain
they can get to be like 10 inches long (shell) but that'd be a big one. . . and the females are bigger than males
9:42 am
nDanLia
that is a popular soup
9:42 am
aprilrain
frantique-- they have to be at least 4" here to be legal to sell, but you can own them younger than that-- just can't sell them in a pet store
9:42 am
ardilla
they had some tiny babies before, but they were frail
9:43 am
frantique
How can you tell if they are male or female..its it visual or like my birds do they have to be DNA tested?
9:43 am
frantique
awww baby turtles
9:43 am
aprilrain
actually frantique, they don't have X and Y chromosomes, DNA would tell you nothing!
9:43 am
ardilla
actually, i'm not sure she really is a she
9:43 am
ardilla
i just wanna think it's a she from her behavior
9:44 am
frantique
wow all these turtle facts that i didnt know
9:44 am
aprilrain
there's a difference in their anal openings, claw length, shell shape. . . some of them are subtle. The claw one is easiest for me to tell. Mine isn't big enough yet though to tell-- they have to be 4" or so before you can tell
9:44 am
ardilla
i gave her a unisex name to be safe
9:44 am
aprilrain
the thing that determines their gender is the temperature at which the eggs incubate
9:44 am
ardilla
what's the claw one?
9:45 am
nancethefan
have u turned them over and looke for a projectile?
9:45 am
aprilrain
i actually can't tell if mine is male or female yet-- he's too little. He's only 2.5 inches. He was drowning in our pool and we saved him and rehabilitated him, but he is too domesticated to put back in the wild
9:45 am
nancethefan
*looked
9:45 am
aprilrain
ardilla-- males have longer claws for mating rituals. If you look online, there are images to show the differences, and once you have seen a few, you can easily distinguish yours as long as it has reached maturity
9:45 am
sadie52
hello everyone
9:46 am
frantique
Today is national WOMANS day, and go figure it's also National Cereal Day. I guess women dont want to cook today so the kids and men eat cereal

nancethefan
hey sadie
9:46 am
sadie52
hiya nance
9:46 am
aprilrain
they don't have those nance-- but the cloacal opening is different on males than females. It's hard to see though, especially if your turtle pulls his tail in when you flip him
9:46 am
nancethefan

back from an emergency trip to the cotswolds!
11:02 am
Haz1558
Hello Atalante - we were about to issue a Missing Persons warning.
11:02 am
nDanLia
keeping her in mind caitly; will bbl
11:02 am
Haz1558
And is all well now, Ata?
11:03 am
Atalante
I'm sorry - I hate running off without warning!
11:03 am
Haz1558
It's okay - we surmised that it was probably an emergency of some sort.
11:03 am
Atalante
yes, all is well now, after many stitches and buckets of blood and lots of scrubbing blood from cushions and floors and toy cats
11:03 am
Atalante
doesn't that sound dramatic!
11:04 am
Haz1558
I hate to say this, but CSI springs to mind. They can still find tiny drops of blood despite your best efforts....
11:04 am
Haz1558
Stitches failed? Lots of blood?
11:05 am
caitlyn
What is even worse for her if possible is that the 1st night she spent by herself afew weeks ago she forgot to lock her front door and someone went in and stole her purse,phone etc.They have caught the man but it makes things even worse
11:05 am
Haz1558
Oh caitlyn, of all the people to choose to target. That's horrible.
11:06 am
Atalante
yep. both the external and internal stitches failed *sigh* much rushing into hospitals etc etc
11:06 am
caitlyn
She certainly doesnt deserve all the horrible things that are happening
11:06 am
caitlyn
Ata are you okay?
11:07 am
Atalante
I'm fine! this was my sister. and she's ok now too
11:07 am
Haz1558
Poor girl. Surgery is all very well but healing is so necessary and difficult when you're not healthy to begin with.
11:07 am
caitlyn
Thank heavens for that
11:08 am
nancethefan
hey caitlyn
11:08 am

caitlyn
Hi nance!
11:08 am
Atalante
she's going back into hospital on monday for a proper clean-up and stitch-up
11:09 am
Haz1558
ruru, ap7 - first three letters as of the monkey/imitator, a fairy story is also known as a fairy **** (sounds like what a dog wags) but replace the vowel at the end with the sometimes vowel
11:09 am
rururocks
just got it from the first clue thank you haz... I missed the tail so to speak...
11:09 am
Haz1558
OR ap7 - a plus a part of a flower, finish with the sometimes vowel.
11:10 am
Haz1558
Glad you've got it now, ruru. A new word for me.
11:10 am
rururocks

Haz1558
You're welcome, nance.

11:11 am
Haz1558
Atalante, will you have to go back up to her on Monday when she goes back to hospital?
11:12 am
Haz1558
It's a great grid, Atalante, not too many strange words.
11:12 am
Atalante

11:12 am
nancethefan

11:16 am
Atalante
I'm not sure I'm ever going to be able to see past jalapeno LOL
11:16 am
Haz1558
The st5/10 before it is an anagram of the dishonest sounding metal. Add the first two letters of the type of publication of which The TImes or The Guardian or New York Herald (?) are examples
11:16 am
nancethefan
i hope ou can because it's not there

12:09 pm
Flask1
ca6/21 please.....FIRST one
12:09 pm

I'm thinking it is just American spelling vs. American. There is a U in the way I have always read and written it, and I follow Brit spelling

this guy - I grew up with him from age 0 upwards - is a complete sci-fi and fantasy nerd, very shy, very retiring, still lives with his mum (my godmother). He took up some form of martial arts and became very good at it, then decided to turn to cage fighting. we were all flabbergasted. but he didn't do very well and has gone back to martial arts lol

She said it semi-jokingly, but who knows, she could make a career out of it. She's dangerous to be with when you're shopping because you're persuaded to part with more money than you ever intended.

scrabs, I have a professional query for you, a general question. You can email me [ikonerding@wesleyan.edu] At what age does your practice suggest starting solid food?
1:14 pm
gdine
70 is not too shabby all things considered!
1:14 pm

Scarlet
You're welcome, mybella!
1:16 pm
ionie
How many 7 letter words did any of you get?
1:16 pm
Scrabbler
For sure at 6 mo, bichon, with cereal, as babies need an extra source of iron at that age. Starting earlier is optional, with the disadvantage being higher risk of causing food allergies and filling up on cereal instead of breastmilk/formula which are all babies need nutritionally for the first 6 mo.
1:16 pm
gdine
That's Sammy...got her while living on Guam
1:16 pm
dcseain
agreed, gdine, esp since i'm taking the class for friend. A long-time friend originally from Morocco has offered to help - i'm going to take her up on the offer.

It's raining here today. it was fun watching Feldspar, my siamese who hates water, going out on the deck in the rain to watch, then running in and shaking off, regular as a pendulum.
1:44 pm
Scrabbler
I am working Sunday so it could be rather dreadful--with bad weather tomorrow parents will want to wait until Sunday to have their sick kids seen.
1:44 pm

1:53 pm

I need 133---why can't I see them???
1:54 pm

1:54 pm

E's, N's, and T's all over, messing with my brain.
1:55 pm
dcseain
indeed, bethn, the countdown has begun
1:55 pm
Scrabbler
So, should I take a nap now, Seain?
1:55 pm
dcseain
if it so suits you, scrabbs. cold days are always nice for that.
1:56 pm
bethn
a town in nj belleville supposedly has a larger collection than dc. i dont know who has more, the are all gorgeous in bloom
1:56 pm
Scrabbler
I am not a napper, but I am so tired and cold, and am off tomorrow, so I might actually crawl back into bed soon.
1:57 pm
dcseain
well, we have multiple groupings of them, and they're all over the suburbs too. Cherrydale in Arlington, VA breaks out in them about when the Tidal Basin and Capitol Hill do, for example.
1:57 pm
dcseain
i'm looking forward to the azaelas at the Nat'l Arboretum, which are 6-8 weeks off.
1:58 pm
Scrabbler
Do you know that I have never visited DC yet in my life? I do need to do it someday.
1:58 pm

i once had tourists ask me how to get DC license plates, i told them 'live here'. They didn't believe me, so i handed them my driver's license, and they said 'what's this?', i explained it was a DC license showing i lived 15 blocks that way, and pointed.
2:00 pm

2:26 pm
debjed

2:27 pm
Uniquity

Scarlet
Beth, what is his drug of choice?

Demand a recount?
2:31 pm
bethn
as of right now he does not look bad, son says he is noticing a loss of "good looks"
2:32 pm
Scarlet
Has he begun stealing yet, Beth? Not showing for band gigs? Getting violent? Lying, not bathing and disappearing for periods of time?
2:32 pm
Atalante
yes! if a recount worked for George Bush ....
2:32 pm
dcseain

neat, scuba, though being a temperate rain forest zone, must be fascinating territory.
3:24 pm
scubadiver
Except once in the Caribbean, and twice in Hawaii, and once in Mexico.
3:24 pm
Atalante
I've dived in the UK, Spain, Philippines, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Tahiti, Moorea, Cook Islands ...

3:27 pm
Atalante
no, I'd love to though
3:28 pm
scubadiver
Well, I can be in to the beach in 15 minutes, and then go diving and find GPO's (Giant pacific octopus). The most I've seen on a dive was eight, and my dive butty saw twelve on the same dive. Woah. And you don't want to mess with them--3 meters from tip to tip! LOL -:)
3:28 pm

3:40 pm
Niamh
Hello everyone!
3:40 pm
dcseain
a friend of mine in Silver Spring, Maryland had a five-car accident in front of their house yesterday, too Eva. Glad you're not hurt.
3:40 pm
EvaNadine
its raining nicely here...
i was getting off the bus, so i didnt SEE it happen, but i heard a HUGE smash...and as the bus drove off, i saw the front car flying into the intersection.
they were in a left-turn lane with a red light, so im guessing the rear car didnt notice the red light (or the stopped car, for that matter)
3:40 pm
phandmd
thnx for both those clues
3:41 pm
mo
anyone hurt Eva?
3:41 pm
Niamh
I've been lurking and pilfering clues....
Scuba, I went to ITT, but not in your class
3:42 pm
EvaNadine
not sure, the person who got hit didnt get out of the car + the rear end was badly smashed...but people were already helping + on the phone by the time i could cross the street, so there wasnt anything for me to do...
there are police cars + i think an ambulance there now...
3:43 pm
dcseain
hope no one is too badly injured, EvaN.
3:44 pm
Niamh
that's horrible Eva
3:44 pm
EvaNadine
i hope so too!

hope everything goes well for those people.

3:45 pm

4:15 pm
Vicuna
Well, if you're going to lose the tulips, at least you get some cuteness in return.
4:15 pm

white pass is the southernmost ski area in washington state http://www.skiwhitepass.com/conditions
/index.html
7:05 pm
stidmama
I watched the car leave from this link! ;-)
7:05 pm
Scrabbler
Yes, IV antibiotics. I was worried about MRSA, but it behaved more like a Strep skin/tissue infection---very inflamed.
7:05 pm
stidmama
thanks woceht -- after I typed my request I realized that tehre are two po 8/55! LOL
7:06 pm
tmcs
woceht . . . where are you from . . . and is it illegal to flat ask you what that thing is that you put water in to carry it out?
7:06 pm
stidmama
so I sorta need the second po 8/55
7:06 pm
ExWren
Sorry nance, went away for a minute, I am singing in Stevenage, which is north of London. I live about 50 miles west of London in Hampshire

7:06 pm
woceht
haha. erm. i don't know. i'm from singapore, but i think that clue applies everywhere
7:07 pm
pam
Is it still swollen and hot? That was my experience. Except that the cyst ruptured both externally and internally... I was a Mess, but am so glad it was on my shoulder and not face...
7:07 pm
Scrabbler
woceht--your name, spelled backwards, is "thecow"
7:07 pm
stidmama
tmcs... what a baby drinks milk from when mother is not available ... bo****
7:07 pm
woceht
the second po8 is the same root as the words above it
7:07 pm

7:10 pm
stidmama

7:10 pm
pam
poor callie...
7:11 pm
stidmama

7:14 pm
Jacula
Hello again. Sorry for just disappearing! 3 things happened all at once - daughter came home from a 60th birthday party, 2 police helicopters appeared (and still are virtually over the house) - nothing to do with daughter, btw! and my computer started acting strangely and so I gave it a full health check, and checking out over 100,000 sites that might be 'malignant' takes time. PHew! Anyway, I'm back for my final 8 words.
7:14 pm
lil*monkey

7:14 pm

7:32 pm
nancethefan
i am a happy camper now - LOL
7:32 pm
Jacula
The helicopters seem to have gone now. Since there were 2 of them, I guess they were both air ambulance waiting for the motorway to be clear for them to land. That's not good because it means there's been a big accident out there.
7:32 pm
Mom
love mac n cheese
7:33 pm
pam
oh, i'll say, nat!
7:33 pm

I hope they were on hand just in case, Jacula

Mom
**holds breath waiting for Stid to finish**
7:35 pm

I think they'll be fine. from a box, but some days, it has to be the thought (and the choclate) that counts
7:35 pm
nancethefan

7:35 pm
woceht
now you've tempted me to go make some.
7:35 pm
woceht

7:35 pm
Scrabbler
P's are pounded! Doing the happy dance. 71 to go.
7:35 pm
Jacula
Stid - I do know what you mean by Brownies, but since, here in UK, our little Girl Guides are Brownies, I have this vision of you stuffing a 'sixer' (6 little girls) into your oven. LOL
7:35 pm
stidmama
I would have preferred peri's eggless "cheesecake" but didn't have the energy.
7:35 pm
Scrabbler
Undercooked brownies rock!
7:35 pm
Natasha

7:37 pm
onyx

7:37 pm
woceht
natasha, did you sell those evil cookies? i finally had some last week after hearing about htem all this time
7:37 pm
Scrabbler
Oh, man, nance! I rarely have brownie mix or ice cream here because I hallucinate and hear a voice, "Make brownies and eat them." And from the freezer, "Eat me."
7:37 pm
Mom
**turning blue waiting for Stid to finish and she is talking food** :)
7:37 pm
stidmama
sorry Mom I am looking for the last ST 7, the one before the secretary's book
7:37 pm
Jacula
LOL, Mom. That reminds me, I've still got 7 words to locate.
7:38 pm
nancethefan
lol - if you haven't every tried the milk chocolate chunk, you must - they are out of this world
7:38 pm
Natasha
nope, brownies didn't sell cookies. You had to "fly up" to girl scouts to do that. I quit--told my mom that they only wanted to make me conform!
7:38 pm
JBV
omg, stid - I am looking for that very word right now
7:38 pm
stidmama
good for you Natasha! (says the girlscout who couldn't sell cookies to her own mother...)
7:38 pm
Jacula
stid - add New England in short form to your 'star' word before it.
7:38 pm
Scrabbler
I was a Brownie and then a Girl Scout. I was Patrol Leader in 6th grade---a proud, self-confident time. In fact, I think my self-confidence peaked in 6th grade.
7:38 pm
woceht
lol. you sound like my roommate, about conforming.
7:39 pm
nancethefan
i can't recall if they were betty crocker or pillsbury - they were the kind that required either and 8x8 or 9x9 pan

Mom
Pillsbury is the 13x9
7:39 pm
stidmama

7:47 pm
woceht

7:47 pm
nancethefan
yams are too stringy for me
7:47 pm
Jacula
nance, if they're stringy, you're cooking them wrong.
7:47 pm
stidmama

Nah, I think tomorrow's will be around 200
8:12 pm

I like big grids on my days off.
8:13 pm

Sometimes grids with only about 72 words are tougher than the 300+ ones.
8:13 pm

ly is a on the underside of your tongue, is also the Spanish Fly (sex aid) beetle.
8:18 pm

8:19 pm
Jacula
Cartilage, Scrabbs.
8:19 pm

Oops! Just got Erda's reply to my usa/uk post. Oh dear! It wasn't meant to be a putdown. It was just a joke.
8:51 pm
Jacula
O never do putdowns unless I think they are deserved. Erda's never given me cause to think I should. Oh dear!
8:51 pm
Scrabbler
Yes, I interpreted it as a joke.
8:52 pm
Jacula
I just thought we were started a fun discussion. Oh well, never mind. Life's too short and all that.
8:52 pm

It's not hard for a comment to come out of context when you have recieved a bit of news or thought that change your opinion about a thing. Ah, the complexities of people :)

No one has commented on my 'divorce' posting. All I can say is that when I asked a divorced friend, about 6 months into the hell, 'How long before I get over it?', she told me (she had remarried 10 years since), 'You won't.. really'. It was true but it set me back!
9:07 pm

Grieving is tough, forgiving the person who hurt you is tough or maybe impossible, but the woman thing, since eve in the Garden of Eden, that is ingrained into our genes, is very hard. In other words, we always blame ourselves, when we really shouldn't.
