Ohh, okay. Thanks. :)
12:13 am
Pinikula
open it in another window and place the windows side-by-side for help if you want it
12:13 am
jillibus
rElise, go down to Friends of Babble and Lickety's Babble Clues -- oppen them in a new window. But also to go the Help just above this chatterbox
12:13 am
rEliseMe
I'll probably do that after I struggle on my own for a bit, haha.
12:14 am
Pinikula

rEliseMe
Thank you. :) I Stumbled this site, it's awesome.
12:14 am
jillibus
Lickety lists the first 2 letters of the words, how long they are, and what they score. Big help
12:15 am
jillibus
already, josh????
12:15 am
Pinikula
you shall be assimilated soon!! resistance is futile!
12:15 am
joshuavorbis
NBT is a fairly easy thing to get quickly if you focus on that at the start
12:16 am
jillibus
speak for yourself, josh -- that's what I always do
12:16 am

12:19 am
jillibus
ho hugs
12:19 am
rEliseMe
So when you list it, it's like... if the word is "ball" then it'd be ba4, right?
12:20 am
vashongin
i thought seahorse was a word???
12:20 am
Hugabugs
ho6 x 2
12:20 am
MLFAN17
vas thats what i would have thought too
12:20 am
jillibus
no, rElise, it would be ba4/6 because B scores 3 pts
12:21 am
rEliseMe
Oh. Okay, but without the points, it's ba4?
12:21 am
Pinikula
there no A next to a B...so ba4 doesn't work in this grid
12:21 am
rEliseMe
Or do you always list points?
12:21 am
jillibus
yes, rElise, but it's a lot better to think of the points
12:22 am
joshuavorbis
hypothetically, yes, rEliseme
12:22 am
rEliseMe
Gotcha. Thanks for your help, guys. :)
12:22 am

12:22 am
Pinikula
hi ruru...how are the adventures coming along?
12:23 am
rEliseMe
Pinikula, I was just curious about the notation so I used a word that wouldn't be cheating for anyone, haha
12:23 am
rururocks
so far so much fun pini .. I am having a good time
12:23 am

oh, so "hotten" isn't a word - as in hotten up the coffee. My dad said it is a real Indiana-ism, right up there with do-less (accent 1st syllable, I feel so do-less - no get-up-&-go)
12:30 am
Pinikula

rEliseMe
I'm still at a loss as to what
12:32 am
rururocks
really clear thoughts is the sa 7
12:32 am
rEliseMe
ns" means... Tennessee-ism.
12:32 am
rEliseMe
Oops! I accidentally hit enter... I'm still at a loss as to what "You'ns" means. It's a tennessee-ism. I think it's something similar to "you-ones" but no one ever says that anyway.
12:32 am

there's a country park near us which is an old gunpowder works - it's amazing, loads of holes and things to investigate for doggies, loads of little canals to play in. Today she managed to play in the stinky canal. Normally I manage to keep her out of that one, but she sneaked in today

Wow. You did a really good job there on falling Kazz
5:26 am
Kazzer99
yes - seems that the really bad pain from pulling the muscles in the left side of my chest hid a whole raft of other problems, i have also done something to my left leg - i can only sit on hard chairs where my thigh is completely supported, i had to go to bed last night because it was so uncomfortable.
5:27 am
herinfernallady
Oh. Kazz have you also seen the doc again
5:30 am
Kazzer99
yes - defo a pulled muscles on the left side - thinks is the pectoral muscle. that has calmed donw now so that i can feel the ribs again the right side - but i ned to go back to work - as much as i love babble daytime tele is destroying my brain
5:30 am
herinfernallady
Poor Kaz
5:33 am
Kazzer99
still it got me off work for 2 weeks which is always nice in january - i also managed to do some home planning stuff that i never seemd to find time to do and get the diaries ready for 2009 - me and hubby have a big plan for this year and it needed to be formalised which i have been doing

jorj, I don't know what has been happening with you, but it sounds like you need a lot of hugs right now. I am not prying, just want you to know you are being thought of
6:21 am
Scrabbler
Yes, a life cut short, with no explanation, no justification for us. Grief sucks and there is no fix, only time. I still forget that my dear friend, MAry,has died,and I often think about calling her, then realize she is gone.
6:22 am

6:23 am

6:23 am

6:23 am
suefrad625
does that make me iconic or harry *onic
6:23 am
Scrabbler
Sue,pick a flag and then a littleperson icon, pink, grey or blue.
6:23 am

Trifioso

6:24 am
jorjahgal
I did that yesterday Scrab, I was trying to think what to fix to take over to the house and before I realized it, I had her speed number on my cell phone and was about to call it to see what she was taking
6:24 am
suefrad625
did it work?
6:25 am
LoriP
I see a picture of a vehicle sue, and you're a human from planet earth
6:25 am
Scrabbler
Jorjah, get scrapbooks, photo albums and journals for the family. Talk, talk, talk. Cry, cry,cry. And somehow a new normal becomes accepted, one without a loved one in our physical presence.
6:25 am
Trifioso
that is really good advice, scrab!
6:25 am
suefrad625
where do I get my flag from?
6:26 am
Trifioso
i find talking to the person who left helps too - just talk to the air, and I swear, you will feel her there
6:26 am
suefrad625
trying really hard to sell the car
6:26 am

lol sue. Marketing is everything. :p
6:26 am

Normalize the emotions for the kids. Sadness, anger, confusion....but everyone MUST go on living. That is what she would want.
6:26 am
jorjahgal
sometimes I think it's fair for me to lose ppl...I mean I am 45 and the older you get the more you will lose, but those sweet sweet boys... it just eats my guts, like I mean I really got physically ill yesterday
6:27 am
Scrabbler
Yep, and every week when I play with Mary's kids I think SHE should be with her kids, not me. I do talk to her a lot.
6:27 am
jorjahgal
There was 3 of us, that always did things together so my remaining one, we decided we are going to do a family cookbook. We both have stacks of scraps of paper where Mandi would write down recipees and bring them to us
6:27 am
suefrad625
Jorjah, I lost a friend when she was 21. But she had cystic fibrosis and 21 was amazing. I can tell you that the way I dealt with it then and ever since, is that i treature the season I had with her
6:28 am
Scrabbler
Go Trif, you word-seeking beast!
6:28 am
Trifioso
that is a great idea, jorj
6:29 am
suefrad625
God doesnt tell us how long we have, just that we should cherish our loved ones for as long as we have them and celebrate them always
6:29 am
Scrabbler
Aw, kids, I need to get ready for work. ((jorjah))--honorand immemorialize your cousin.
6:29 am

then one morning we got up - there were 4 of us, all females - and looked out at the fjord and there were herds of narwhals travelling down the fjord. Looking for fossils vanished for a long while!

Greenland, Bichon, east coast up at the ice cap

KatieMcG
No pug, where did you find him?
3:09 pm
Atalante
oh yes. *anywhere* round there, really. Anything "Middle-east". ANd I've still got to get to Petra!
3:09 pm
Lizsark
You'd be surprised Katie, you have to push the release thingy and then pull the hose - that amounts to doing two things at once
3:09 pm
Lizsark
Middle East is so beautiful. Jordan was just mind blowing
3:09 pm
pugmama763
I believe they purposely remain ignorant in the hope of never being asked to run it

3:21 pm
Atalante

3:21 pm
Lizsark
Ah Lynxxx maybe that was it - NOT! LOL
3:21 pm
Atalante
the only time Hobbit gets pissy with other dogs is if they sniff her ar4 too much - cos of her anal gland -um- issues. But she soon tells them off
3:22 pm
Lizsark
Cute! I could have swung for him, little rat! I had to run miles to catch him - found him in someones garden incinerator!
3:22 pm
Atalante
ok, miles becomes NOT cute!
3:22 pm
Lizsark
I'm afraid he's a big sniffer *blushing again*
3:22 pm
lynxxx
BBL better get a walk done b4 it (might?) rain - or storm anyway

Atalante

3:34 pm
Atalante
he fought foxes for fun
3:35 pm
Lizsark
good grief
3:36 pm
Atalante
he ended up with tattered ears and bites out of his tail, but he was still the beautifulest cat ever
3:36 pm
mrpresident
ata, that is what my dad's ex-cat Harry did... He was a Russian Blue... and would go hunting for Hare.
One day, he came back through the feild with a Hare betweeen his jaws, and a mouse in one paw... it was hysterical to watch him !!
3:36 pm
Lizsark
Oh! We had a Russian Blue when I was a child - Perry - he was wonderful!
3:37 pm
Atalante

But Harry did it for the love of the chase, and as presents for Dad :)
3:40 pm
bichon

4:08 pm
Atalante
hi trif!
4:09 pm
Trifioso
hello ata....still madly in love with you, by the way. You are a truly gifted artisan
4:09 pm
Atalante
LOL :D thank you!!
4:10 pm
Trifioso
I suffer under a terrible curse - I am a little big good at a lot of things, and truly excellent at very little. It makes me a great trivial pursuit player, but not good enough to make a career out of much
4:11 pm
Atalante
I think the same most days!
4:11 pm
Trifioso
i think i have ADD too - i get all interested in something, and I am just mad about it for a while, and then i lose interest.
4:12 pm
Kazzer99
back again - anyone got the first la?
4:13 pm
Trifioso
do you think most artistic people are like that? I have a suspicion that many are. I have, of course, met a few totally focused arty people, but they really were singularly minded
4:13 pm
Atalante
I think a lot are
4:13 pm
Trifioso
i don't kazzer, all apologies
4:13 pm
Atalante
la + Mr Onassis

Kazzer99
euh - ty very much wouldn't have got that in a month of sundays
4:18 pm
Trifioso
it is all of 35 degrees F here today, but I swear, it feels like we could go outside in tee shirts, it is such a significant change
4:19 pm
bichon
Trif, ths is the first cool and cludy day I've had in CA.
4:20 pm
Trifioso
are you in the southern part, or up north?
4:26 pm
bichon
Bay Area, south of SF. It's actually showering her. Severe lack of precip this winter
4:29 pm

uh oh! backing away slowly....
4:35 pm
Trifioso
hello feather! I think it is a good mix of weird and usual
4:35 pm
featherbee
gotta watch LOST tonight, so won't be able to concentrate except during commercials
4:37 pm
Trifioso
oh, feather, my son is BEGGING me to let him skip scouts tonight, just so he can watch it....i am sorely tempted, I must admit
4:38 pm
Atalante
these things are important!
4:38 pm
Trifioso
but we have a DVR....
4:38 pm
Atalante
not the same
4:40 pm
featherbee
record it, let him stay up to watch it after scouts
4:40 pm
Atalante
Lost is more important than scouts!
4:41 pm
featherbee
lol, such an enabler ata!
4:41 pm
featherbee
hiya kje!
4:41 pm
Trifioso
it is, and it isn't. I figure, to be fair, I shouldn't watch it until he comes home either. oh, the denial!
4:42 pm
Atalante
well what are they doing at scouts tonight?
4:43 pm
featherbee
compromise? tell him just for tonight he can stay home, but the rest of hte time he has to watch it after you, recorded?
4:44 pm
Trifioso
compromise - he goes to scouts, and I don't watch it til he comes home. He made a commitment!
4:44 pm

Atalante
just let him stay home!
4:46 pm
Trifioso
be 6, 24 please???
4:47 pm
kje
no... do NOT let him stay home... TV is NOT more important than other activities
4:47 pm
kje
but that is my bias... I refuse to plan a life around the TV - ridiculous!
4:47 pm
Atalante
1 episode of 1 TV show can be just as interesting as an evening of something else!
4:47 pm
Trifioso
it's okay, kje, he is going. no worries.
4:48 pm
Trifioso
so. no clue for me then? bad mommy penalty?
4:48 pm

4:48 pm
JBV
what a time to join in - you remind me of someone who came to my husband's retirement party with a mini portable TV so she could watch her soap opera (novela) !!!! I vote for scouts, not TV - tape it for him
4:48 pm
Atalante
oh its that one - the be4 before it + vowels
4:48 pm

4:48 pm

4:49 pm
Atalante
I didn't even have a TV till I was 18!
4:49 pm
JBV
hello everyone - and can I even admit to this crowd that we don't watch Lost at all
4:50 pm
Trifioso
I watched THOUSANDS of hours of tv as a kid. Literally glued to the thing. Have regretted that some, and are more strict with my kids, but there you go.
4:50 pm
kje
ours came and went.. depending on my parents conviction at any given time
4:50 pm
Atalante
but I'd shackle myself to the TV to stay home for the 1st Lost epi!
4:51 pm
Kazzer99
my hubby is addicted to lost but i got fed up with a show not going anywhere
4:51 pm
Trifioso
JBV, of course you can admit it! I have never watched a single solitary episode of CSI, or any of it's spin offs, which some people find incomprehensible
4:52 pm
Atalante
I loved seasons 1 and 2, got utterly bored in season 3 and then loved season 4 again
4:52 pm
magazinemom
JBV- I watched one episode with the ex-DH and just wasn't interested
4:52 pm
Kazzer99
he is also addicted to Battlestar which is on at the mo and i said he could watch it cos i'd rather be here with you all
4:52 pm
JBV
there are very few series I find watchable any more - the police and forensics ones are just so gory and disgusting = they are trying to outdo each other with more outrageous scenes
4:52 pm
kje
me either jbv... I don't like to get started on any show i would feel compelled to see every time -
4:53 pm
magazinemom
there is nothing I hate more than turning on my tv and seeing someones innards. ICK!
4:53 pm
Kazzer99
i must admit to be addicted to cookery programs
4:53 pm
JBV
we watch a lot of old movies (Turner Classic channel) and I would rather watch a national geographic special on spiders that some of these inane situation comedies or sensational dramas
4:53 pm
kje
lol - that gas stuff is in the grid
4:54 pm
magazinemom
Amen JBV! I love the History Channel, NatGeo, A&E
4:54 pm

I decided not to get cable... ths i am addicted to babble instead - LOLOL
4:54 pm

ok, here's my confession - I will watch dancing competitions any time
4:54 pm

that made me giggle - we had the offending articles for tea and there is a fair amount of you know what around
4:58 pm

oh yikes. yesterday's words showed up in today's lickety's list - hate when that happens
4:59 pm

so i have started seeing 2 guys....
5:04 pm
kje
one I have very little in common with, but he amuses me...
5:04 pm
kje
the other I have a lot in common with, but he is kind of dull, though very nice
5:05 pm
Dorens
hope you have no trouble keeping them straight in your mind, kj i would never be able to do two guys simultaneously, too many memory blips
5:05 pm
JBV
you must be quite busy, kje....
5:05 pm

my basic bias is that opposites attract but make horrible long term relationships - what words of wisdom do you have?

How many words today? (England)
5:19 pm
jillibus
the flag is the cross of St George, representing England
5:19 pm
bichon
ty Ata, I was unaware that England had it's own flag.
5:19 pm
jillibus
Hello all -- I'm sneaking a peek at the library
5:19 pm
bichon
We're very sheltered here in the colonies
5:19 pm
Atalante
England, Scotland and Wales do. N ireland too
5:19 pm
Kazozz
hey jilli :)
5:20 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
every state has its own flag, too 8-) and a lot of cities, townships, etc. it's an epidemic
5:21 pm
jillibus
bichon, the British flag you're used to is made up of three crosses -- St. Andrew for Scotland (white diagonals on blue), St Patrick for Ireland (rediagonals on white) and St George (England)
5:21 pm
nbjasmine
i thot the union jack was the flag of england? how ignorant am i?
5:21 pm
Atalante
Union Jack = flag of Great britain
5:22 pm
bichon
Yes, there's a NYC flag [where I was raised], but not a Middltown CT flag [where I live now]
5:22 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
most americans don't know the diff between England and the UK, let alone the flags. me, i'm a flag nut 8-)
5:22 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
plus, most of us think "British" means "English" and don't know that the Welsh and Scottish are "British" also
5:23 pm
nbjasmine
i know the diff but i thought the other ones had different flags anyway
5:23 pm
bichon
MOst Americans don't know a lot about any foreign country. They really don't teach geography like they used to. In fact, most Americans can't name their US rep. or senator
5:23 pm
Atalante
well that's an interesting question. they are really Great Britons. Cos Briton = v English
5:23 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
bichon, you got that right
5:24 pm
nbjasmine
so then, if england's flag is red on white, then i still wonder, don't the others have their own?
5:24 pm
Atalante
Wales has its own flag in babble, Scotland too
5:25 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
wales has a red lion on a green compartment (ground) with a white sky

5:54 pm
stidmama
I almost did... I asked if it was okay for me to go to class and she said yes. But I think I may skip some of it, I'll just talk to the teacher ahead of time. The redness will be a good clue that I am not just trying to pull a fast one.

6:09 pm
stidmama
thanks all.
6:09 pm
Katydid0615
well take care of yourself first. you are no good in class if you can't concentrate and learn anything. But does the babbling bother the eye infection?
6:10 pm
stidmama
not as much as reading books, to be honest. I can't wear my glasses though.
6:11 pm
Katydid0615
reading books can be harder on the eyes than the computer if you have a decent monitor.
6:12 pm
stidmama
yes, the brightness of the monitor seems to help a lot. which is funny because when I have a migraine I can read books but not the computer.
6:12 pm

7:09 pm
bichon
Thinking of Michelle Obama out there in the cold all that time; has anyone ever heard the phrase "beauty knows no pain"
7:09 pm
sukee
I'm sure the fact her husband was being sworn in as President helped to keep her warm
7:09 pm
DR1965
the oldest is the same age as Jake.. he wanted to know what would happen if she spilled a soda on the carpet
7:09 pm
stidmama
LOL bichon! perhaps that is why I am not beautiful -- the smallest discomfort and I am running for cover!
7:09 pm
stidmama
that is a good question, DR. what did you tell him?
7:10 pm
bichon
My hubby and I once saw a short documentary aobut a bunch of Texas cheerleaders who had to pose for a group photo. A couple of them were stuck in the rose bushes but kept on smiling throughout. "Beauty knows no pain"
7:10 pm

The doctor replied, "It's very simple. You're two tents."

is it famous or non-famous people?
8:30 pm
Scrabbler
Six word memoirs = using 2 words to summarize yourself or your life. Some are funny, some sad, many are SO creative and well-thought out. The first book (compilation) is a best-seller. I read it in 20 min.
8:30 pm
Krista
that would be challenging..i have enough trouble with that facebook "16 things about me"
8:30 pm
Scrabbler
The reality is that there could be a global flu outbreak.
