rururocks

faith by the way you guys is an awesome player in word rampage...absolutely lightening fast
1:35 am
FAITHA

good advice...I remember when I first started playing boggle feeling equally clueless
1:36 am
FAITHA

speed doesn't help me here
1:36 am
rururocks

whaa? ruru zipped? mon dieu!
1:37 am
lynxxx

welcome Faith. When you get sick of using a printed list, there is a lovely function on Lickety called Bulk Add. Instructions at the bottom of Lickety's page.
1:38 am
FAITHA

he's not chatty on word rampage...focuses on trying to beat me and says little
1:38 am
rururocks

who has time to chat there... jeez
1:38 am
FAITHA

the list is awfully long...it's still printing
1:38 am
VolleymomDee

lol... I forgot about that game... I'll have to check that out again some time
1:38 am
rururocks

it's a big grid today faith thats why.. usually 170 or so
1:39 am
FAITHA

so why is today's puzzle in the archives?
1:39 am
lynxxx

Went to Weboggle the other night, don't like the new layout
1:39 am
VolleymomDee

I do miss the old tangle....
1:40 am
FAITHA

I haven't played on weboggle in ages...is the lag better?
1:40 am
joshuavorbis

hi pav - sorry dove in the deep end of the grid for a bit
1:40 am
FAITHA

and does the fact that you all have flags mean you are all upgraded to Pro?
1:41 am
lynxxx

I think it is - but the new layout is 'jerky' very distracting
1:41 am
PAV3

I prefer the shallow, so I can stand and wade away...although the doc said more exercise...
1:41 am
rururocks

200
1:41 am
lynxxx

Little people, flags, icons and profiles - means paid up yes
1:41 am
VolleymomDee

yes faith
1:42 am
PAV3

batting average ruru?
1:42 am
PAV3

it must be your IQ...
1:42 am
FAITHA

so if I play without a flag for long, I'll be considered a freeloader?
1:43 am
rururocks

nope
1:43 am
rururocks

lots of freeloaders on this site
1:43 am
PAV3

only if your don't bring sweets for teh penalty box...
1:43 am
VolleymomDee

not all all; I didn't join for a long time
1:43 am
lynxxx

Not at all. You'll just get sick of people asking where you are from
1:43 am
PAV3

1:44 am
FAITHA

okay, I'll provide the chocolate chip cookies
1:44 am
lynxxx

Plus, non pro's after 2 weeks lose Tile Stats & Word Stats
1:44 am
PAV3

oh, don't tell stidmama...!
1:44 am
PAV3

they do lynxxx?
1:45 am
FAITHA

I've already lost that since I tried playing here once a couple months ago
1:45 am
lynxxx

Yeah. Makes it quite hard to play if you don't want to use Lickety
1:45 am
rururocks

some people tough it out and do it without a list
1:46 am
PAV3

ah, that puts one back in grade school
1:46 am
FAITHA

what do the stats panels tell you?
1:46 am
rururocks

how many words are off of each tile
1:46 am
lynxxx

Where the words start from
1:46 am
PAV3

how many words from each tile and how many you'e found
1:47 am
PAV3

you've found from each tile...
1:47 am
FAITHA

that would make it easier....
1:47 am
lynxxx

Sure does!
1:47 am
PAV3

and how many words with 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 le7 in them
1:48 am
FAITHA

and does that explain why my score isn't listed from yesterday?
1:48 am
FAITHA

basically the same information that's on liclety?
1:49 am
rururocks

more or less
1:49 am
FAITHA

make that lickety
1:49 am

okey dokey
3:31 am
lynxxx

back (sshhh - that was pretty blech but I can't say anything out loud, ungrateful wretch that I am)
3:34 am
FMitch

lol, what was it?
3:38 am
lynxxx

ummm - stringy beef of some sort browned off then roasted with onion and mushroomy (sauce) served with nice potatoes but barely cooked broccoli. And naturally every cooking pot in the house has been used. BUT I least I didn't have to cook - I hate it
3:38 am
FMitch

oh dear, do you hav eto do the washing up?
3:40 am
lynxxx

Usually - but tonight I think he has done the first wash up. I just sneak out there later and clean up all the water everywhere and rewash a olt of things. Age brings water blindness to husbands amongst other things!
3:42 am
FMitch

awe but bless him for cooking, it does make a change doesn't it when someone else puts the food on the table :)
3:43 am
lynxxx

sure does!
3:44 am

morning, all. my sister in law's name is in the grid today
3:44 am

hi Angel
3:44 am
FMitch

was out early in the garden this a.m putting bread out for the birds and a pair of field mice that live at the bottom of the garden came out and took some of the bread whist I was still standing there, talk about bold!
3:45 am
FMitch

Morning Angel
3:45 am
lynxxx

yay - more creatures to feed!
3:46 am
FMitch

I know, I feel like i am feeding the 5000 but I get so much pleasure from it.
3:47 am
FMitch

I was watching a blackbird yesterday and wondered what he was up to as he had some bread in his beak but wasn't eating it - realised he was stuffing as much bread as he could carry and take back to the nest.
3:48 am
lynxxx

It really is Spring there
3:49 am
FMitch

yup spring is springing
3:50 am
FMitch

Not a bad grid today Ihave to say, even the re's were quite kind.
3:50 am
lynxxx

Still in Tshirts here, we get a few days in the low 20s and then it jumps up to 30 again. Leaves haven't really started to fall in earnest yet
3:51 am
lynxxx

You have finished? - Congrats!
3:51 am
FMitch

Gosh Tshirts! My acknowledgement of spring is to only be wearing 2 layers instead of 3!
3:52 am
FMitch

I woke up too early this morning unfortunately so got a head start on the day and the grid.
3:53 am
lynxxx

Anything special planned for the weekend?
3:54 am
FMitch

HAve a hair appt at 10.30 and the rest of it I am working. How about you?
3:54 am
lynxxx

No nothing - ain't it grand! just what ever I feel like doing
3:56 am
lynxxx

How is everythng business wise in the UK? still seems awful in the US. We are moving along quite well...house prices are rocketing again!
3:57 am
FMitch

I'm doing fine but life it very tough for a lot of people here and with the General Election coming up next month everything seems to be in limbo.
3:57 am
Andree

only word i can think of is alter and that isn't in the puzzle
4:13 am
Haz1558

Change your vowel at the end, forward.
4:13 am
Haz1558

It sounds the same but it has a different spelling.
4:14 am

ty Haz...didn't know a 5 letter word could be so hard!
4:14 am
lynxxx

so how did the scones go down Haz, I haven't seen you since we talked about your upcoming meeting
4:14 am
Haz1558

You're welcome, forward.
4:15 am
Haz1558

The meeting went fine, even though they didn't have time for coffee and scones (we just had to eat them at home instead). It looks promising, they took photos etc and have said they'll ask around and be in touch again within a fortnight.
4:16 am
Haz1558

I don't think we'll get one donated, but even guidance would be a great help.

Thanks! Hopefully we'll have a new one installed by September, after the summer break. They reckoned the old one would collapse if we tried to lift it out, it may have to be a demolition and skip job.

How was the wedding Haz?
Hello red and diz and herin.

lol herin.
4:35 am
herinfernallady

hello
4:35 am
Haz1558

Hello, herin.
4:35 am
Haz1558

Hello, FM. The wedding was fine, everyone looked the part - the weather was foul!
4:35 am
herinfernallady

How are we all? I hope no one walks past our house. Our lights are own.
4:36 am
herinfernallady

on even.
4:36 am
herinfernallady

O Haz that is not good at all
4:36 am
FMitch

oh what a shame.
4:37 am
Haz1558

We had rain all day, so pictures outside were very restricted. On a positive note, the bridesmaids didn't collapse and the respective mothers didn't sob through the ceremony - both of which have happened at previous weddings I've attended.
4:38 am
FMitch

good lord!
4:39 am
herinfernallady

Well at least they are happly married I hope
4:39 am
FMitch

I must be off again but did want to find out about the wedding. TTFN
4:39 am
Haz1558

The bridesmaids collapsing made for great sound effects as it was a wooden floor in the church. Basically one bridesmaid fainted, went sideways and the domino effect kicked in.
4:40 am
Haz1558

But yesterday's went without a hitch, so all was good.
4:40 am
herinfernallady

O gee how did that happen? Heat?
4:41 am
Andree

my bridesmaid fainted when i was married , she cracked her head on a pew
4:41 am
Haz1558

I think she had just been rushing about too much.
4:42 am
herinfernallady

ouch Andree. Should one have taken that as a sign from above?
4:42 am
redturtlehead

Oh my Andree! drama!
4:42 am
Haz1558

Goodness, Andree, who knew that being a bridesmaid could be so dangerous?
4:43 am
Andree

all the minister could say was, no don't turn around, as if
4:43 am
Haz1558

My daughter was chief bridesmaid yesterday. She took her role so seriously that she had an emergency box on standby containing everything from eyelash curlers to bars of chocolate.
4:44 am
herinfernallady

O that is very sweet idea Haz. I must remember that when I have the bridesmaid turn
4:44 am
Andree

good for her
4:44 am
Haz1558

I don't think anyone would have been allowed to faint - it wasn't on the schedule....
4:45 am
Andree

its not only dangerous haz, its also expensive, my daughter has been a bridesmaid 6 times
4:46 am
herinfernallady

Andree each time she has paid for it all?
4:46 am
Haz1558

6 times is a lot! It's not just the dress, it's the whole process of tanning and make-up etc. Moon launches have happened with less preparation.
4:46 am
herinfernallady

Haz was the Bride hyper organised?
4:47 am
Haz1558

No, the bride was organised, my daughter is the one who goes into overdrive.
4:47 am
herinfernallady

o
4:47 am
Andree

when it was for her brothers i paid otherwise she has paid
4:48 am
Haz1558

Thankfully, she did calm down enough to enjoy the day, I was worried that she'd be so het up that she'd not be able to relax.
4:48 am
herinfernallady

See my g.f is paying for it all but I think I would rather pay for half or at least some sort of bartar
4:49 am
redturtlehead

My Sister and her husband paid for their wedding entirely. but they were older when they married and established.
4:50 am
Haz1558

My daughter paid for her own dress (she'll be able to wear it again) but I think the bride paid for most of the beauty stuff. It all comes down to what people are happy to do.
4:50 am
herinfernallady

My g.f is now the only child from a European family (her brother passed a few years ago) so this will be a rather large affair. I must remind her to make sure the dress is expandable.
4:51 am
Haz1558

I think eloping has its merits.
4:51 am
herinfernallady

My mum and dad married at the local registry caught a train there in their finest then had photos outside the church to have it all proper
4:52 am
rubyfoo

oh boy! a big grid! hello everybody
4:52 am
redturtlehead

my parents did the same, minus any photos. my mom cant remember what she wore...
4:52 am

herinfernallady

ok
4:57 am
redturtlehead

ruby the grid slows I think, at le*** for me, at about 205 or so...so it is rather run.
4:57 am
rubyfoo

just read thrugh the "weddings" chog. 1st time, I got married at City Hall in NYC and the judge called me by my sister's name (maybe I wasn't really married after all?). The second time, I cried through the whole thing, what a mess!
4:57 am

I still say that Lord Vadars sship is a valid word
5:15 am
rubyfoo

your name was in the grid yesterday herin, was it accepted?
5:15 am
herinfernallady

nope
5:15 am
rubyfoo

do you think Dr. God does that intentionally? Puts in the names of the regular players to make us feel good?
5:16 am
herinfernallady

It would be nice to thing that but all grids are random
5:17 am
rubyfoo

:(
5:18 am
herinfernallady

my dinner is taking too long
5:23 am
herinfernallady

any one here?
5:23 am
rubyfoo

I'm still cranking away. What are you having for dinner that is taking so long?
5:23 am
Haz1558

Yes, for another minute or two.
5:24 am
herinfernallady

No idea. It is done now Pie and chips.
5:24 am
rubyfoo

enjoy it!
5:24 am
herinfernallady

Haz how is Spangle?
5:24 am
herinfernallady

Couch induced me into a sleep again
5:25 am
Haz1558

She's fine, having a morning snooze to recover from the exhaustion of a good night's sleep.
5:25 am
rubyfoo

naughty couch
5:25 am
herinfernallady

Haz sounds like me.
5:26 am
Haz1558

At least you don't spend too much time arranging the hair on your paws!
5:26 am
herinfernallady

Ruby it happened again yesterday too
5:26 am
rubyfoo

is it true that dogs sleep 26 hrs /day?
5:26 am
rubyfoo

the couch or the grid?
5:26 am
lynxxx

I am sure it is 27 hours
5:26 am
herinfernallady

Couch which caused me not to finish the grid
5:27 am
rubyfoo

but the snoring makes a nice ambient noise!
5:27 am
herinfernallady

I don't snore I make puppy dog noises
5:27 am
Andree

mine is so young he only sleeps for 23 hours a day
5:28 am
rubyfoo

hahah
5:28 am
herinfernallady

I make these little grunts that sound like a dog sleeping
5:28 am
Haz1558

The snoring can sometimes reach epic proportions, but today she's pretty quiet.
5:28 am
rubyfoo

max can shake the walls, but I don't mind!
5:28 am
lynxxx

do you toes twitch too Infernal
5:29 am
herinfernallady

yes
5:29 am
rubyfoo

Ruby only snores when I massage her and then I think it's not snoring, just ecstacy
5:30 am
herinfernallady

I have been told this today again.
5:31 am
Haz1558

Well, I must go, shopping awaits, but at least the sun is shining. A really fun grid today, not too many oddities at all. Bye for now!
5:31 am

5:41 am
herinfernallady

Lynxx the local store has advertised that there was GreyHounds for sale ex race dogs
5:41 am
lynxxx

really - do you know the name of it?
5:43 am
herinfernallady

I can't remember but I saw it today. i was on the way to getting coffee and brunch
5:43 am
lynxxx

They really are different. I would hate to think that people would buy them without proper advice.
5:44 am
herinfernallady

I actually think it was the proper rescue place with get to meet and greet. Not a hey we have these dogs for sale. From memory it looked all offical and stuff
5:44 am
lynxxx

If you go past it again, can you please take note of the name. I'll lets GAPs know, perhaps they would like to contact the shop and the trainer
5:45 am
herinfernallady

It wasn't a pet store shop but it was like a flyer in the bread
5:45 am
herinfernallady

opps store
5:46 am
lynxxx

I think there are a couple of Greyhound Rescue places apart from GAPs, must be one of those
5:46 am
JFB

I am so glad I'm nowhere near that shop! We had a greyhound for a long time - shelooked like your icon lynxxx.
5:46 am
herinfernallady

Honestly I think it was reputible
5:47 am
herinfernallady

HI JFB
5:47 am

hi JFB.

JFB

Hi everyone
5:49 am
herinfernallady

Lynxx I am fairly sure it was an info day thing
5:49 am
JFB

Its hi and bye - must do the dreaded grocery shop!
5:50 am
lynxxx

Problem is that if the greys don't go thru GAP (or at least be assessed by them for a week) then they must be muzzled when out. Stupid antiquated law, they don't require any other breeds to be muzzled - including pit bulls!
5:50 am
lynxxx

bye JFB
5:50 am
herinfernallady

Well I think any dog which could be a problem should have a muzzle but then again problem dogs have problem owners at times.
5:51 am
herinfernallady

My friends dog is muzzled due to previous torture by next door neighbours kids when she was a pup. SHe doesn't like kids
5:54 am
lynxxx

We had (rescued I guess) a dog the same. Was tied up for 12 months because she bit one of the kids that were tormenting her. Previously she had been with an older couple in an apartment. She was a lovely dog just couldn't abide kids tormenting her, was fine with our boy
5:55 am
herinfernallady

poor dog. Then again i think some parents with kids should be muzzeled them self
5:55 am

Six years ago, I went to see Jim Capaldi at BB King's in NYC because Al Steewart was opening. I love Al, but would have stayed for Capaldi, but he wouldn't let Al have an encore because the crowd was so enraptured b y him. So in retalliation, 75% of the crowd left after Al's set.

The da 4/5 is March 27th,2010.Here is today's story of clues. I had to st 5/10 babbling before my ma 4/5 counterpart woke up. My ma4/5 de 7/32 Babble. We cl 5/14 when it comes to Babble. He te5/10s me that I love Babble more than him. Was able to cr4/6 some words while he was de4/6 to the world in deep sleep. Then my dog made a loud cl7/32 in the livingroom.He knocked over a vase of fr 5/18 flowers. The dog got scared to de 5/14 and ran underne5/12 table. When I told him to come out he went into his cr 5/12.Then the husband woke up in a re 4/4 da 4/10 as he tried to de4/5 with what happened.My husband was so da 5/24,I told him not to fr4/7.I de5/12 with it instead and everything was ne 4/4 again. I fe 4/7 so bad for the dog so I gave him a tr5/10. He loves his tr 6/18. Then I layed down let him ne 6/18 with me for a little bit.Then after having ea5/10 breakfast that ta6/21 delicious, I went to the ma4/5 to get some things on sa 4/4. Then I re9/60 babbling with ea4/4 until I got halfway done. Then looked at tile st 5/10 and saw no tiles greyed. I told myse4/7 to be sm 5/12 & not try to finish grid, just set a ta 6/24 goal of 300 words. I was el 5/10ed when I reached my goal of 300 words. It el 6/18 me when I reach my goal. I can at 6/18 to the fact that this grid was very tiring. Alas,I'm tired and must go to bed. Goodnight to my fellow babblers!
