so when I stepped out around 11 pm my time...it's 12:42 now, we came upon a foursome inthe community pool/jacuzzi with their pet dog along for the ride...pool closes at 11, pets aren't allowed in any public pool area, glass is not allowed in the pool area, and it doesn't help one bit to yell and swear at condo Board members(like me) telling them to scidaddle.....put a bucket on Joey's head? naw..I've been leaving him downstairs while I sleep upstairs...but last night I joined him down here, only Precious slept...her infection isn't so bad...

1:45 am

herinfernallady

and give him a hug

1:45 am

sprite

isn't this the 3rd day in a row that we have 201 words??

1:46 am

herinfernallady

Pav um its the thing they put on dogs head after they neuter them AND a dog in the pool is as gross as wizzing in it

1:47 am

lynxxx

I thought that myself Sprite! Hello everyone

1:47 am

PAV3

I say Joey is my Special Needs dog,,he always needs special attention, esp. when he's ill....he gets all the hugs he allows me

1:47 am

sprite

tough times when your babies aren't well, PAV. Cuddle for all three of you.
And people who think rules don't apply to them usually don't have nice personalities...

1:47 am

herinfernallady

HI lynxx

1:47 am

sprite

hi lyn! Good day to you.

1:48 am

herinfernallady

My cat ran into the kitchen today for no reason other than to hiss at the b.f

1:48 am

cjmomma

1:49 am

PAV3

when the resident first moved in, we had our first go'round, and I was lenient then, but tonight withthe dog in the pool area, it was a major blow up....I've asked the Board to consider closing the pool area until Spring...

1:49 am

lynxxx

nite CJ

1:49 am

PAV3

thanks Sprite for the hugs...I took them for a walk and I'm the one pooped!

1:50 am

sprite

very irritating, PAV

1:51 am

sprite

that is because you worry and are taking care of them, while they just demand your total attention until they feel better, hehehehe

1:51 am

PAV3

adn when do your poopies appear?

1:53 am

sprite

they should arrive in4 this world around 2nd of Feb. After that they will live with mama dog for another 8 weeks. So early April we will be a 5 member family :)

1:54 am

sprite

that is, provided all will go well

1:54 am

PAV3

Ah, Spring...time for renewal and growth! they'll be soooo cute......and messy....

1:55 am

clownfacedhunter

hi all.. checkin in with lots of time to go!

1:55 am

sprite

lol yes, and we will be as prepared as we can. But loving the beastie will be the main part and I know we will put that part off pretty well.

1:55 am

sprite

hi clown, welcome

1:56 am

PAV3

I've not had my pets as true poopies, they've all been at least a year old...still messy....

1:56 am

sprite

will PULL off that part

1:56 am

lynxxx

hi Clown

1:57 am

sprite

dogs are messy, I guess. We have this old carpet that should have been thrown out months ago, but we keep it until after the puppy is thoroughly housebroken.

1:58 am

sprite

because I just know that even though 3/4 of the room is tiled, the puppy will prefer the carpet for oopsies and other bad moments...

1:58 am

clownfacedhunter

sprite/lynxxx how r u managing the puzzle.. so far.. I am just gettin started

1:59 am

PAV3

I've replace my carpets with wood floors, 'cept for the stairwell - and that's where Joey leaves his gifts...when he's upset, 'cause otherwise he's been a dream to learn my schedule and go outside...

1:59 am

sprite

clown, I am not finding it easy so far. Not quite halfway and already searching for words.

1:59 am

lynxxx

same with me - exactly in fact. weird

2:00 am

PAV3

Precious, the smart (!) one, knows to go outside or on the pee pad already, so she's good all the time....

2:00 am

clownfacedhunter

well, let the game begin

2:01 am

I've slowed down at 99, with 102 left...

MonkeyGames

So you get a vacation, I glean?

2:26 am

oh yes :) 5 days with 4 of my friends in a nice cottage, on Ameland, with sauna and swimmingpool and jacuzzi

2:27 am

MonkeyGames

OH NICE!!!! Make a nice change from all the gloom. Although if anything's falling I do prefer snow, so today is nicer...

2:27 am

sprite

true, MonkeyG, it looks nicer, lol. But it is COLD!

2:27 am

MonkeyGames

Except the gale force winds... have to take teh dog to the woods soon...

2:28 am

MonkeyGames

Cold, yes, cold. And Danny of course cannot take that-- never weighed more than 47 kilos in his life.

2:28 am

sprite

oh man, no fat for insulation. He must be freezing.

2:29 am

MonkeyGames

Are all teh words from the upper left N normal? I can only see 7 of them.

2:29 am

MonkeyGames

He is, but we have central heat here.... Sure beats our first 7 years in the tiny place with the kerosene heater that would heat 2 square meters nicely and couldn't be used at night.

2:30 am

lynxxx

normal for me MG - 5 no & 5 ni....and Hi

2:30 am

and a fleece blanket for when he sits still. Costs no more than a few euro and is great in keeping you warm.

MonkeyGames

Hi! Thanks.

MonkeyGames

Yeah, we have lots of blankets.

2:33 am

2:36 am

MonkeyGames

Thanks!

2:37 am

MonkeyGames

Do you know if anyone has seen Lil Monkey in a while? Haven't seen her in forever. Hope everything's OK.

2:37 am

sprite

2:38 am

MonkeyGames

I'll drop her an e-mail and say people are just wanting to make sure she's OK and all.

2:38 am

Ahhh! Cool.

A few days ago I could not stop seeing "biopsies".

2:52 am

2:58 am

MonkeyGames

Oh, thank you so much!

3:00 am

sprite

we are going to do at least a cup of coffee together in real life in the new year, MonkeyG. Somewhere in between illnesses and bad backs and such we must be able to ;)

3:01 am

MonkeyGames

GOT to!!! Bear in mind also that all going well I become vastly more sane in 8 weeks...

3:02 am

sprite

sorry can't have that. With you even more sane I will look a complete idiot.

3:02 am

o-o

at first was wondering if the te 7 was an aphrodisiac

3:02 am

sprite

might need an M for that

3:03 am

MonkeyGames

Awww, silly, you're GREAT! Walter has correctly informed me that it is snack time (he has learned to recognize teh important times on teh clock), and then I will need to clean and shop. Have fun, everyone!

good morning from a very cold house in England :-)

3:13 am

FMitch

Morning Katie
Heating gone kaput?

3:15 am

KatieMcG

Yep, we fixed the original problem but the the boiler died, need a new one. We took the cover off the old one and it really doesn't look safe to repair so need to bite the bullet

3:15 am

FMitch

ouch!

3:15 am

KatieMcG

As my brother said yesterday it could be worse it could be the coldest weekend of the year!

3:16 am

FMitch

lol it's not exactly summer outside today

3:17 am

KatieMcG

Honestly this is like the house that Jack built. It looked great but everything that needs repairing is worse than it looks, bodged jobs everywhere.

3:17 am

KatieMcG

I'm particularly looking forward to the snow later ;-)

3:17 am

FMitch

Is it a new house?

3:19 am

Sally-catlover

Morning all. Eek, 201 words again! Looks nasty

3:19 am

KatieMcG

No it was in the late 70's, the boiler is 10 years old. Its just things like not enough cable to be able to replace the fuse in the boiler as you can't take it to bits, the main light fitting being earthed to plasterboard, the lights in the kitchen being stuck in with tap as the holes were too big, I could go on.......

3:20 am

KatieMcG

*tape

3:20 am

FMitch

Hi Sally, we seem stick at 200 words grids :(

3:21 am

Sally-catlover

Not a letter A in sight :-(

3:21 am

FMitch

There seems to be something about late 70's builds (mine is too) did they not believe in building well in those days?

3:22 am

KatieMcG

I think that the person before us was an enthusiastic trier who had more enthusiasm than talent :-)

3:24 am

FMitch

coffee time back shortly

3:24 am

KatieMcG

On the bright side the fire is still working and we will need to cuddle up for warmth. When I was little we didn't have central heating so I am sure we can live without it

3:29 am

o-o

ge 6 -- add what is paid to temporarily use a ge

3:30 am

FMitch

I've only put the heating on twice so far this winter.
yay found a 7!

'Fraid not. He's the stubbornest man you ever met and has been even worse since his stroke last year. I am planning an escape. I'll live in my own warm flat and visit him at weekends.

3:42 am

o-o

how is the novel progressing, hydra?

3:42 am

lynxxx

That sounds good Hydra, and you'd get lots of writing done

3:42 am

FMitch

HAving spearate place does have it benefits

3:42 am

Haz1558

We had neighbours who used to penny pinch with everything so that they could leave money to their grown-up, very well-off sons. I couldn't understand it at all.

3:43 am

hydra

He does have his good side, though, otherwise I wouldn't have stayed so long.

3:43 am

hydra

No, I can't understand that either, Haz.

3:44 am

Haz1558

If the sons had had any wit, they'd have insisted that the parents bought some coal instead of being so miserly on their behalf.

3:44 am

hydra

Sounds like the sons had been spoiled and were very selfish.

3:45 am

joshuavorbis

moving to the list with 31 left out of time necessity

3:45 am

Haz1558

One had an excuse in that he didn't live nearby to see what was going on. That wasn't the case with the other one.

3:45 am

hydra

You're doin' great, josh. I have 151 left.

3:46 am

o-o

who gets an estate is a source of trouble for many. If the testators cannot agree, the wills provide a life estate in the survivor, little may be done

3:47 am

o-o

of course, the survivor may decide to be a spendthrift

3:47 am

hydra

I spent yesterday writing my will. Now everybody's got to be nice to me :-)

3:47 am

FMitch

and if no will is left all hell breaks out

3:49 am

o-o

sometimes, the testators devise the property to the survivor trusting that he/she will dispose of the property in a manner agreed upon.

3:49 am

hydra

My mum didn't have one so it was a year before we could sell the hbouse.

3:50 am

Its OK Hydra, you didn't have to put all of us into it, we'd be nice to you anyway

elder

hello Katie.

5:56 am

KatieMcG

Hello Lori & Elder, how are you doing after the op elder?

5:56 am

elder

In the shake, please could you add an 'A' .

5:57 am

KatieMcG

I was on earlier and ground to a halt at 68 due to the lack of an A

5:57 am

elder

Coming along well thank you. Back at work everyday, less hrs and building up.

5:59 am

elder

Katie. yes, my back is good at reminding me to ease off at times.

5:59 am

KatieMcG

I think the cold is messing with my ability to find words :-)

5:59 am

6:02 am

KatieMcG

I'm sat in front of the fire at the moment and the shower is electric luckily. It's really hard to get people to come out and quote, they all seem to be the same company. We had one over the phone for Â£1650 which is just too expensive

6:04 am

elder

Katie, they have you over a barrel. Thats so much money. is it gas ?.

6:05 am

KatieMcG

6:05 am

elder

I do not understand why my cats think that just because I'm sitting at the computer, it is an open invitation to come and plant their fanny right in front of my face. Is this some type of complementary gesture in their world?

the annoying part is that the parents didn't care... it would be different if they were apologetic or even embarrassed and you knew they were just overwhelmed... but often lately, it seems parents feel they have the right to allow children to behave badly and it is everyone's else fault if they have a problem with it

I was in a place once and the mother was letting her little one hang over the booth that we shared...holding a very large cup. Of course the child dropped the cup...on my side of the booth and it spilled all down my back. The mother apologized but I still went home with a sopping backside and I doubt if the parent learned a lesson.

There is a number i can call to talk to a doctor but all they'll say is it sounds like a non-emergency or to come in if I get really worried.

8:43 am

Another study looked at 34,407 acupuncture treatments given by professional acupuncturists. None of the treatments caused any serious harm. Again, there were some minor side effects, such as bruising in about 1 in 60 treatments, pain in about 1 in 80 treatments and bleeding in about 1 in 250 treatments.4

MG, when my daughter was about 16, she bent down to get something from the refrigerator and she could not get up. when she did she was in a great deal of pain. we decided to go to the chiropractor who was very close by and he did what he did and she walked out of there just fine. thank goodness. have you ever considered consulting a chiropractor? She never went back.

That's what I call purposeful shopping!

He has zero interest in cars but needs a reliable car with a big boot. Another Vauxhall Vectra. It's like driving a bus.

8:57 am

Anniebrook

Enjoy your new car, Haz! An Aston Martin?

8:58 am

Haz1558

I'd hate to see an Aston Martin after a close encounter with country lanes....

8:59 am

Trifioso

omg, my friend afric's dad had a teeny little Vauxhall mini or some such when they were little, and every single time she rode in it she was sick! So after years of that torture he went to get a new car....and came home with the new model of the EXACT same car! Apparently her mom went NUTS at that point

8:59 am

Haz1558

It's practically the same car as before and the same colour as well.

Haz1558

It's the weekend, I suppose they want to do anything except work.

9:08 am

KatieMcG

We can't even get them to make appointments in the week, the weekend thing I can understand. Going to try a friend to see if he knows someone now. The man from up the road was supposed to be coming round but hasn't turned up!

9:08 am

Haz1558

That's really frustrating!

9:09 am

oodleberry

Anniebrook

I just have ei8 which is a number

9:17 am

KatieMcG

41F I think!?!

9:18 am

9:18 am

72 Temple Owl

and you don't even have time to get alot of quotes

9:18 am

kje

I would have guessed 40, so you are probably right

9:18 am

KatieMcG

9:20 am

kje

"take the mickey" - that is a new saying for me... I know slip someone the mickey, but that is drugging them...

Haz1558

'Take the mickey' means making fun of someone.

9:21 am

kje

oooohhhh

9:22 am

kje

thanks for the clarification, b/c in context, i would have guessed to take advantage of

9:22 am

9:23 am

9:24 am

Uneaixoise

a big moment for my daughter and me . . . I'm actually using the decorative Xmas candle I gave my daughter 2 years ago . . . and she regifted to me last year! LOL

9:24 am

Haz1558

It's the icons that are themed - some people change regularly, others not so often.

9:24 am

Trifioso

oodle - care is needed with mickey! In ireland, "mickey" is also the pe 5 from the grid two days ago...

9:25 am

oodleberry

for instance when you brits say pissed your drunk when we say it it's angry

9:25 am

Uneaixoise

9:25 am

kje

9:25 am

Uneaixoise

9:25 am

oodleberry

9:27 am

kje

oh, like the teapot is made of chocolate... i get it

9:28 am

oodleberry

ok it IS a teapot made of chocolate

9:28 am

Trifioso

another funny thing in ireland is how, when they have had a really good time, they say they had really good "craic" which is pronounced like "crack" - that raises a few eyebrows 'mongst the yanks!

9:28 am

kje

that is a good one... i will use it

9:28 am

kje

i mean i will use the teapot... not i will use the crack

9:29 am

evanonut

9:29 am

oodleberry

9:29 am

72 Temple Owl

9:32 am

Trifioso

okay, first, you must picture the women involved - my mother is a lady, gentile and proper. Wouldn't say the s*** word if she was up to her elbows in it. My m-i-l is a lovely, totally proper Irish lady who has never seen herself naked. Okay. So over we go to Ireland for my son's birthday, and visits, etc. My m-i-l had been mugged, so she had warned us not to bring handbags, but secure purses with long straps, pocket wallets, etc.

9:32 am

evanonut

how am i managing the house? what's to manage? i rule the roost baby! hi owlsy!

9:32 am

KatieMcG

Fanny means ladies bits in the UK

"fanny" is just about up there with the dreaded "c" word in America

9:35 am

evanonut

nonoyesyes!!!

9:35 am

Haz1558

It's not something you'd talk about with genteel company, gentile or otherwise.

9:35 am

10:47 am

Haz1558

Babbly fairy sounds like Tinkerbell with no discretion.

10:48 am

Haz1558

It depends whether there's a window in the bathroom or not, though.

10:53 am

hmmph -- missed the ei 8

Enable is obviously non-conformist.

11:11 am

It's 0910 where I am, but since I work nights, I work up at 1800 yesterday to start my days...so while it's technically morning for the rest of the West Coast (US), it's getting towards the end of my night/day/*headexplodes*

11:12 am

11:16 am

unithorn

Ah, okay. I've lived in Oregon for a few years, haven't seen much of it...I guess since I don't feel that I'm going to settle here, I haven't bothered...that, and I generally work too much to even think of getting away for a few days.

11:17 am

aebmusica

I second that,PINI!

11:17 am

Liddybug

unithorn can you tell fairys wing's sister one of your O words????

11:17 am

The oregon coast is wonderful if the weather is good

11:18 am

I'm not military, but grew up in Alaska, spent a few of my high school years in Hawaii, lived in Cali for 3 months before I ran screaming (it was Torrance, to be fair...eek), and have been in Oregon for a few years now. Might move up to WA. I've been to many cities across the nation but have my reservations of actually leaving the West Coast permanently.

I love a lot of different areas...like I loved Philly, but have no desire to live there. West Virgina is beautiful, but it would drive me mad. There's just something about the west coast that keeps you. Alaska especially.

Pinikula

Maybe they're threatening a strike???

11:45 am

phandmd

I need HE 6/24

11:45 am

Atalante

I don't have monkeys. Monkeys know I dislike real-world monkeys and they run away :(

11:46 am

kje

pini - they have gotten really ridiculous... more bananas, healthcare benefits, and better retirement packages... how can I afford it?

11:46 am

rururocks

he + the famous eskimo Indian

11:46 am

Pinikula

how could any of us, kje!

11:46 am

phandmd

Kje, fire them and hire non-union monkeys

11:46 am

Judi

Uh oh. I smell a banana scented bailout package coming.

11:46 am

rururocks

11:46 am

LOL judi

11:47 am

DR1965

have you guys watched Madagascar2 or something...

11:47 am

DR1965

The monkeys do ask for ridiculous benefits

11:47 am

kje

if we all band together, we can outsmart them, but what can I do when some of you treat your monkeys so well???

11:47 am

phandmd

darnit, I don't know the jewelry word either

11:48 am

kje

haven't seen it, DR... not a fan of madagascra 1

11:48 am

perfect clue, RURU

11:48 am

Atalante

*sits and watches the monkey negotiations*

11:48 am

DR1965

I am not too but the chog is reading like the script

11:48 am

Pinikula

I think we should ban bananas!!!

11:48 am

phandmd

ok, now I have the top 2 rows grayed and am gonna run now

11:48 am

phandmd

happy babbling to everyone

11:49 am

Pinikula

tc phan

11:49 am

Judi

Perhaps we should downsize the monkeys and outsource to squirrels.

11:49 am

kje

well, if that is the case, DR... I am sure their writers stole it from us!

11:49 am

DR1965

bye Pahn

11:49 am

bye phan - enjoy!

11:49 am

DR1965

*Phan

11:49 am

DR1965

LOL Kje

11:49 am

Pinikula

I think we should consider investing in SQUIRTMONKS!

11:49 am

kje

yes!!! let's hire squirrels instead!!!

11:49 am

Atalante

maybe I have peacocks instead

11:50 am

kje

*listening to the chattering that started in the monkey pen*

11:50 am

Atalante

squirrels! yes!

11:50 am

Atalante

or chipmunks

11:50 am

Judi

Hmmm. Sounds like a controversial hybrid animal. Greenpeace and PETA will be all over us.

11:50 am

kje

I just squirreled a hi4

11:50 am

Pinikula

Squirtmonk = crossbreeding of squirrels and chipmunks!

11:50 am

Atalante

yep!!! perfect!

11:51 am

puruestinks2008

We'll just ban those, too, Judi!!!

Pinikula

hi puru

11:51 am

DR1965

Hi Puru

11:51 am

Atalante

PETA are idiots anyway

11:51 am

Judi

And we'll move all our operations to the Island of Dr. Moreau. Perfect.

11:52 am

kje

that almost says rur stinks ... i love it - LOLOL

11:52 am

Pinikula

kje...was it the first hi4?

11:52 am

Pinikula

11:52 am

kje

11:53 am

Atalante

11:53 am

Judi

Sounds like squirtmonk speak.

11:53 am

Pinikula

(while you're at it, clue the hi?)

11:54 am

Pinikula

More like Typonese Squirtmonk!

11:54 am

11:54 am

Atalante

Atalante

oh. babblet. hi + 2 consonants

11:55 am

TY ata... squirrels do not seem to be as good at this job as monkeys... may have to reconsider our move

11:55 am

Atalante

hi + *e*ior prom

11:55 am

Atalante

they need time to adjust

11:56 am

Pinikula

thx for that...

11:56 am

kje

they seem to be spending more of their time looking for nuts than words.... and they keep finding them in the chog - LOL\

11:56 am

Atalante

remember it, it's a stupid word and frequently in the grid!

11:56 am

Pinikula

ROFL !

11:57 am

EspritdJean

not stupid if yer a hillbilly

11:57 am

Judi

*sends memo to CEO, suggests replacing nuts with sunflower and other seeds*

11:58 am

11:58 am

puruestinks2008

11:59 am

Pinikula

sad, but true...

11:59 am

Atalante

why not? it's a word

11:59 am

Nef

Hello Fellow Babblers. Am I slow today or is this grid just a bit trickier than my brain can handle today? I've been here 15 minutes and it's really SLOW going!

11:59 am

Judi

What are you going to do, puru? Sh*t happens.

11:59 am

kje

neener is not a word... yet weed uses it in our conversations all the time... i will correct her next time

11:59 am

puruestinks2008

yes, but i didnt think that they would use it, oh well...\

11:59 am

DR1965

it is slow Neef..

11:59 am

PAV3

Hi all! back in to finish (hopefully)

12:00 pm

kje

it isn't only a curse word puru

12:00 pm

reparteena

hi nef--its the curse of the "201"!

12:00 pm

Atalante

if its in the dictionary, it's allowed. like cunt. which we all hate

12:00 pm

Pinikula

Nef, the monkeys are on strike and so have been replaced by Squirtmonks who are slightly distracted in their new assignment, but coming along nicely. ;)

12:00 pm

DR1965

Hi Pav

12:00 pm

Judi

I've seen worse words in other grids.

12:00 pm

PAV3

Hi dr

12:02 pm

Nef

well, my brain is finally starting to wake up (the body has been up for 3 hours); so I couldn't believe that I was this slow.

12:02 pm

Pinikula

go nef go!

12:03 pm

Nef

How is everyone else today? I suppose you are all going at this faster than I am (20 words in about 17 minutes I think)

12:04 pm

Judi

I'm off until later. Have to go layer up for the football game this afternoon. Univ. Delaware vs. Villanova.

12:04 pm

Pinikula

Looks like I need to get going myself...going to watch nieces play volleyball and then maybe a movie after that (want to see "Boy in the Striped Pajamas").

12:04 pm

Pinikula

Happy Babbling all...don't forget to feed the squirtmonks!

12:04 pm

Atalante

byee!

12:05 pm

Nef

Squirtmonks, huh? If it helps, I'll do it! ;)

12:05 pm

Nef

Bye Pink and Judi

12:05 pm

Atalante

12:13 pm

harpjane

12:14 pm

Nef

something you do playing golf?

12:15 pm

harpjane

was that for me nef?

12:16 pm

Nef

yes, Harp (and I'm not a golfer; but to me that

12:16 pm

Nef

that's what you do when you are ready to hit the ball)

12:16 pm

Atalante

ty Nef

12:16 pm

EspritdJean

guess puru REALLY wouldn't approve of some of the other routine words

12:16 pm

harpjane

OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHH I got it!

12:16 pm

Nef

:-D

12:16 pm

harpjane

i have ignored the gerund because its so rare in this grid

12:18 pm

Nef

Well, harp, I've found very few words that don't start with a "T" or a "G" today

12:19 pm

Atalante

that's cos most of today's words are Gs and Ts :P Gin and Tonic. what a good idea

12:20 pm

Nef

LOL!, Atal! It's just noon here so a bit early for me. I feel like I might had and a few last night, however. It's clod here and I'm SLOW!

12:21 pm

Atalante

it's past 6pm he4 :D

12:21 pm

MonkeyGames

Hi folks. Great, laptop's making a screaming noise. Hope hubby gets my new computer done SOON...

12:21 pm

Babs1

hints for the lower corner i's?

12:22 pm

Nef

Have one for me then! Are you having much luck with the grid?

12:22 pm

MonkeyGames

To take in by eating or drinking is one of them.

12:22 pm

MonkeyGames

To put into an overall larger array is another.

12:22 pm

Babs1

thanks, monkey..i always have troubles with the vowel starters and assume they are unusual words!

12:23 pm

Nef

sorry, Babs, I can't help. But thanks for the hint, Monkey

12:24 pm

MonkeyGames

What about the left lower corner O? I only have 1, multiple singles.

12:24 pm

Babs1

me too, monkey.

12:25 pm

MonkeyGames

I sure do keep wanting to enter onager though...

12:25 pm

EspritdJean

crying vegetable

12:25 pm

MonkeyGames

Oooh, thanks and duh!

12:25 pm

Babs1

oh, just found one as preposition...on 4

12:25 pm

MonkeyGames

And on that no4 the laptop has suddenly stopped screaming...

12:26 pm

Nef

For that lower O, if you are on** something

12:27 pm

MonkeyGames

Was sure I had that from another O already, but no! Thank you!

12:27 pm

MonkeyGames

Must be confusing it with the in4.

12:28 pm

EspritdJean

or8/45 is there too

12:28 pm

MonkeyGames

Aha... Compound word?

12:29 pm

Atalante

nope

12:29 pm

MonkeyGames

No, got it!!!

12:29 pm

EspritdJean

start with bird lover prefix and ends in plural letter

12:29 pm

Nef

Thank you!

12:29 pm

Babs1

not seeing it as fast you o**** eagle eyes!

12:29 pm

MonkeyGames

I tied it into an obscure clue from more than 8 hours ago about there being a plural Babbler with an extra letter in the grid... Thought I was supposed to be looking at the inge part there, but no!

12:30 pm

mamabook3

clue for in7, please?

12:31 pm

Babs1

so, monkey would you be willing to give a clue that is less obscure?

12:31 pm

MonkeyGames

What about the e next to it? I only ahve the electrical units.

12:31 pm

Atalante

in7 - not a fraction

12:31 pm

MonkeyGames

in7 is a natural number.

12:32 pm

mamabook3

thanks... can't believe that gave me such a hard time

12:32 pm

MonkeyGames

Esprit's was good... OK, start with ******ology", the study of birds. Then make it plural with a vowel in there.

12:32 pm

MonkeyGames

I've been staring for it for a whole day, mamabook.

12:33 pm

Babs1

thanks monkey for saving us hours!

12:33 pm

MonkeyGames

No problem!

12:34 pm

MonkeyGames

Thank whoever it was-- I think Sprite-- who dropepd teh obscure comment about the Babbler. Could've been Lynxxx...

12:34 pm

MonkeyGames

Think it was Sprite though.

12:35 pm

MonkeyGames

Laptop's vocalizing again. This thing is WAY old. But my new computer will be ready soon... and a ship is coming from Earth... and pigs will fly...

12:36 pm

Nef

monkey, why is the laptop so noisy?

12:36 pm

Babs1

how nice? to have a laptop provide music...lol

12:36 pm

MonkeyGames

That'd be scary, wouldn't it? The swans are bad enough. A practicing juvenile nearly went right through the window a few weeks ago.

12:36 pm

MonkeyGames

IO think the fan is finally shot.

12:37 pm

Babs1

bummer

12:37 pm

Nef

so the vocalizing isn't a good sound.

12:37 pm

MonkeyGames

Well, I got it free years and YEARS ago, but it still has to hang on long enough to get all my school work onto th eother one or I'm doomed.

12:37 pm

MonkeyGames

Ohhhhh nooooo it is not.

12:37 pm

PAV3

67 left and befuddled...

12:38 pm

PAV3

12:38 pm

hello all

12:38 pm

MonkeyGames

My "real" computer died way back, motherboard burst into flames. Had no money for a new one. Now we have the new motherboard and my husband needs to find time to put it back together.

12:38 pm

Nef

fans can be replaced. I just ordered 2 refrub laptops for Christmas this AM to finish most of my chirtmas shopping

12:38 pm

MonkeyGames

Hi Jasmine!

12:38 pm

Nef

I LOVE shopping online!

12:38 pm

Babs1

where do you buy yours nef?

12:38 pm

NonnieLight

Hello everyone!

12:38 pm

MonkeyGames

Better than me, Pav... I still have 69 and went to list 10 words ago. And baffled.

12:39 pm

MonkeyGames

Can't find one single ir, for example.

12:39 pm

Nef

12:39 pm

NonnieLight

12:40 pm

nbjasmine

12:40 pm

NonnieLight

I think is has, jasmine

12:40 pm

Babs1

how about uncreasing your clothes, monkey

12:40 pm

MonkeyGames

Think so, Jasmine...

12:40 pm

EspritdJean

I have in6/24 from lower right, what is clue for the other I pls?

12:40 pm

Nef

I've bough quite a few things there before Babs. Including a few refurbs (including 2 computers in the past) and have always benn happy with what I get

12:40 pm

MonkeyGames

OH!!!!! Thanks and whack me with a scrod.

12:41 pm

nbjasmine

what's the probability of that?

12:41 pm

MonkeyGames

Something that is a part of a greater whole, like picture-in-picture television, Esprit.

12:41 pm

Babs1

what brands have you bought...how much for the ones you ordered today...we've bought some locally, but of late have been using a mac personally

12:41 pm

EspritdJean

ah ty MG

12:41 pm

Nef

esprit, the in5/10 is from there too

12:43 pm

EspritdJean

that was the one monkey clued thanks

12:43 pm

Nef

Babs, I've bought an iMac from there for $100 for hubby's 83 y/o Aunt who plays games and gets email on it; I just bought 2 HP laptops there (on sale ) and I've bought an eMac for another elderly relative. All were under $300

12:43 pm

MonkeyGames

OK, entertainment time. Jack Dee Live at the Apollo. Will probably lurk off and on. Have fun, folks!

12:44 pm

Babs1

bye monkey!

12:44 pm

2:11 pm

harpjane

hello

2:11 pm

lynxxx

whizzing along now, just got list out - 20 to go. Before that I was struggling

2:12 pm

harpjane

i just put PEPPER on top of my ginger snaps and they are really good!

2:12 pm

lynxxx

hi Harp

2:12 pm

harpjane

(all together now---thanks for sharing that jane!)

2:12 pm

Nef

did you do that on purpose or by accident?

2:13 pm

lynxxx

Just tjinking what you would drink with those Harp - sounds good for the cold weather

2:13 pm

oodleberry

makes them more spicier harp... yum I love ginger

2:14 pm

harpjane

i did it on purpose, trying to spice up some cookie dough i bought from a neighbor kid

2:14 pm

Nef

I put chilies in my brownies and chocolate in my chili, but have never heard of pepper on cookies!

2:14 pm

oodleberry

kewel I will remember that the next time I make them

2:15 pm

Atalante

I've been eating chocolate chili bean soup today

2:15 pm

harpjane

i have a polish cookbook that uses pepper in cookies

2:15 pm

oodleberry

well it's on the same order nef... only this is black pepper and you want to give more flavor to the ginger

2:16 pm

oodleberry

you put in sweet chocolater semi sweet or bitter?

2:16 pm

Nef

I may try it sometime then. I would think a bit of fresh ginger would also help

2:17 pm

Atalante

dark chocolate

2:17 pm

oodleberry

ok ty then it is sweetened a little

2:18 pm

Nef

oodles, I use whatever I grab from the cupboard. Even hot cocoa mix will do. It gives a much richer flavor to chili (I add about 1-2 tbsp)

2:19 pm

Nef

harp, how much pepper did you use?

2:19 pm

harpjane

i just dipped the tops in sugar, then pepper

2:19 pm

harpjane

I did some in cloves too but the pepper is better

2:20 pm

harpjane

en6?

2:20 pm

harpjane

i'm sure its a fish

2:20 pm

Nef

okay. how does it look? Would white pepper look better I wonder?

2:21 pm

harpjane

it's barely noticeable. at least i didn't say anything to my taster and he didn't say anything

2:21 pm

Nef

sorry, I don't have that one yet

2:21 pm

harpjane

but then again he can walk over dirty laundry for weeks without seeing it....

2:21 pm

Atalante

pepper is used to make lebkuchen etc too - gingerbread biscuits

2:22 pm

harpjane

cardamon was pretty good too

2:22 pm

Nef

LOL! So he might be a bit blind?

2:22 pm

oodleberry

hee heeh harp

2:22 pm

harpjane

selective blindness

2:23 pm

lynxxx

en6 is all of it

2:24 pm

Nef

thanks lynxxx

2:27 pm

oodleberry

ok some one mentioned earlier about two kinds of veggies in the grid... I only see one on5

2:29 pm

lynxxx

torgone

Got it ..

5:57 pm

hurshy

only, of course, it's not that sort of plural since the i version won't go

5:57 pm

hurshy

and it's not the english sort of plural, so i don't know WHAT it is

5:58 pm

Lindrickway

7:17 pm

pam

LOL, nocturne!

7:17 pm

featherbee

i bet a lot of them are teens?

7:18 pm

Nocturne

I imagine....

7:18 pm

evanonut

nocturne, i'm listening to a book called nocturnal right now.

7:18 pm

bethn

I usually like that genre, my daughter told me I would not like that series as i am too militantly feminist. Does it not have strong women?

7:18 pm

Nocturne

Ooh! Whazzat?

7:18 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

i thought nocturne was that fake novel by stephen colbert . . .

7:18 pm

evanonut

i think the women are very strong

7:19 pm

Nocturne

I assure you , Gwen, I'm totally not a fake. ;)

7:19 pm

evanonut

7:20 pm

pam

LOLOL! Beth, sounds like you and I are a lot alike....

7:20 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

ty ruru, i was working on that one too

7:20 pm

featherbee

well, speaking of "popular" books and ranting, i totally hated the "series of unfortunate events" series

7:20 pm

evanonut

she might think you won't like it because of bella's supposed incompetency, but that all gets fixed in the last book.

7:20 pm

featherbee

oh, ty ru. i had to get a clue for the "e" version of that too.

7:20 pm

evanonut

and franky, i hated the second book...i wanted to smack her around myself

7:20 pm

bethn

I kind of go off when confronted with the poor little me syndrome

7:21 pm

evanonut

that's why i hated the second book

7:21 pm

bethn

She might not have finished them all yet... I will ask her if she has changed her mind

7:21 pm

Nocturne

Belate thanks Feather. :D

7:21 pm

featherbee

are they quick reads though? so you can plow right through and get on with the third book?

7:22 pm

bethn

Didn't read persnicket

7:22 pm

evanonut

well...i dunno...i mean...do you read something quick thatr annoys you?

7:23 pm

featherbee

depends. if i liked the first book enough, and see that it's going to go somewhere, yeah. but with the series of unfortunate events, nope. read the first, barely started the second and said enough.

7:23 pm

Nocturne

I read stuff that annoys me. Case in point, the last three books of the Gunslinger series....

7:23 pm

featherbee

ohhhh, yeah, they annoyed me too, but i HAD to read them!

7:23 pm

evanonut

couldn't stomach a series of unfortunate events

7:24 pm

Nocturne

Did the same as you on the Snicket books, Feather. Couldn't stand it.

7:24 pm

featherbee

that whole series annoyed me, i think because it was SO long and drawn out.

7:24 pm

featherbee

yet i was compelled to keep reading

7:24 pm

Nocturne

It was like reading someone who wanted to write out the Gashley Crumb Tinies, but failed.

7:24 pm

bethn

I always find it interesting when i HATE a book most everyone else likes

7:24 pm

featherbee

what is that?

7:52 pm

bethn

7:52 pm

featherbee

nope, missed that one! darn.

7:52 pm

nrkii

I worked for a company a few years ago where our American CEO used the word fanny in a meeting with the entire UK office

7:52 pm

dalenmiles

clue the ni7, pls--don't have the 6 either

7:52 pm

72 Temple Owl

i did. it ws!

7:53 pm

nrkii

It did not go over well....

7:53 pm

stidmama

hello all -- how is the grid

7:53 pm

nrkii

dale, closer and closest

7:53 pm

nrkii

hi stid!

7:53 pm

mrman

hey

7:53 pm

dalenmiles

not as bad as yest, stid

7:53 pm

stidmama

oh oh... my great-grandmother was fanny!

7:53 pm

bethn

i like to learn something new everyday, evidently fanny refers to your female bits in a similar manner as c4

7:53 pm

featherbee

hi stid! i'm not minding it!

7:53 pm

mrman

nite

7:53 pm

stidmama

NO! really??? rofl

7:53 pm

nrkii

as long as she wasn't British, that's okay Stid

7:53 pm

72 Temple Owl

hi stid!

7:53 pm

stidmama

okay, will do half again

7:53 pm

featherbee

the i's gave me trouble, but other than that ok

7:54 pm

bethn

it's not a terrible one stid

7:54 pm

featherbee

oohhhhh!

7:54 pm

nrkii

the CEO told people to stand up and stretch so they could rest their fannies

7:54 pm

featherbee

oh dear!

7:54 pm

dalenmiles

ty again, nrk

7:55 pm

bethn

and someone's mother from the USA went on and on about her fannypack to her daughters MIL to the enormous dismay of everyone

7:55 pm

dalenmiles

isn't your fanny already at rest when you are seated?

7:55 pm

72 Temple Owl

if you work with any brits or irishmen, that could be interesting

7:55 pm

nrkii

but if you're seated too long, your butt gets sore

7:56 pm

dalenmiles

yes, true

7:56 pm

nrkii

especially in a company meeting, when the CEO is boring you

7:56 pm

dalenmiles

that's when I whip out my ipod

7:56 pm

bethn

then your whole body goes numb

7:56 pm

dalenmiles

and, consequently, why I don't work

7:57 pm

bethn

ceo's generall frown on earbuds during their speeches - no sense of humor

7:57 pm

dalenmiles

on a different note, bruce campbell was just here, in toledo, in person the other night flogging his new movie

7:58 pm

MaryK

my first time on this puzzle; how do these tile stats work? Apparently you are figuring out the first two letters of some words, but I'm befuddled. THanks

7:58 pm

dalenmiles

he's really funny

7:58 pm

nrkii

MaryK, welcome!

7:58 pm

featherbee

hi mary! i'll explain, 1 sec

7:58 pm

MaryK

Thanks

7:58 pm

dalenmiles

maryk, try lickety on the bottom of the tile stats, it is hyperlinked

7:58 pm

nrkii

We are using "Lickety's List" which you can link to below the grid

7:59 pm

featherbee

tile stats under the grid show you how many words come from that letter. we know the first two letters because we're using a clue list that nrkii just pionted out.

7:59 pm

bethn

the tile stats tell you how many words start from each particular letter. If you go to friends of babble and click angelsongs babble page ther is alot of help

7:59 pm

featherbee

when we say re4/6, that means it starts with re, is 4 letters long, and 6 points

8:00 pm

bethn

welcome! if you need help just ask

8:00 pm

featherbee

5 letter words double the point total on the tiles. 6 letter words triple. etc.

8:00 pm

dalenmiles

also, dale figured this out, and I didn't more fool me, that all are alphabetized, and are in that order in lickety, so you can use that and the first two letters to give you an idea which direction to go in

8:00 pm

rururocks

I need help...desperately... but it is with my mother in law..

8:00 pm

rururocks

hurshy

for the OR i mean

11:21 pm

rururocks

plural of the male organ.. isn't one enough?

11:21 pm

hurshy

not unless you all want to share

11:21 pm

mkg

male organ, meaning pe or sc? dont see p or c in grid.

11:22 pm

hurshy

11:22 pm

rururocks

if there is a male organ word in the grid I don't remember it

11:22 pm

mkg

huuuummmmmmmmmm plural of that? never heard it.

11:22 pm

hurshy

and it doesn't start like a particular baltimore bird, if that's what you're thinking. it's just a general bird word.

11:22 pm

stidmama

IN 6/21 please? and the IN 7 too if you don't mind. down to 49 and slowing fast

11:22 pm

mkg
