I don't know which one is the dolphin; maybe I found it already
12:11 am
BriSan
jillibus, is that your real picture or is it an icon?
12:11 am
Uneaixoise
oops, sorry
12:11 am
joshuavorbis
it's an i4/4 grem - you probably have it already
12:12 am
gremlinn
I do have an in4, okay
12:12 am
gremlinn
yeah, I have it
12:12 am
jillibus
Welcome, BriSan. Not everyone follows the icon themes, whcih change every day. Today's theme is A Word from the Grid, which will serve as a clue. I haven't found one yet so my icon is yesterday's theme. If you click on it you will see what it's about.

That an5 is in crossword puzzles on a regular basis...hello granny
1:48 am
flosey
must remember that Douglas, haven't been doing them lately, how do they clue it?
1:49 am
Douglas
Usually "negatively charged particle" to distinguish it from just plain old "charged particle"
1:49 am
jillibus
oh foo -- I was looking at the wrong A

Jayk
Morning! Woke up at 4 and couldn't sleep so here I am--only to have my spirits, high at the number 82, suddenly plummet. What IS this thing?!
3:49 am
FMitch
Morning, it's hard but doable, random typing works well today.
3:49 am
Tanja
nasty and small in my view
3:50 am
Tanja
uep doing lots of randon\m typing

What would be the likelihood of having the cartoon turtle warriors here two days in a row?

gm lynxxx
4:00 am
lynxxx
TY Mudd - was just trying to find Ns
4:01 am
Mudd
This started out as a nasty grid for me, but I'm gradually accepting it. I don't like small grids so it is a mindset that I have to overcome.
4:02 am
lynxxx
ye** - they are either too too easy or too tough
4:04 am
Jayk
And in almost the same spot, Mudd!
4:04 am
Mudd
When there is a 7 in the middle of nowhere, I panic, but they have been relatively familiar today ... except the Shakespeare Hamlet one.
4:19 am
Soodle
Hello everybody :) Its a miserable morning here - all the better for Babbling!
4:19 am
Mudd
good morning Soodlebum
4:20 am
Sally-catlover
Hi Babblers. Nasty cold grey morning here, but have coffee and a horrible grid to look forward to :-)
4:21 am
Mudd
The grid is actually not so bad once you dig in your heels. I only have two words left and have not been here all that long.
4:21 am
Sally-catlover
I came on briefly quite early, and got 28 words. Can't see any more at the moment!
4:21 am
Mudd
And now I'm finished.
4:21 am
lynxxx
don't believe a word Mudd says
4:22 am
Sally-catlover
Yay for Mudd!
4:22 am
Jayk
believe me, i don't!
4:22 am
Sally-catlover
You mean not finished?
4:22 am
lynxxx
very clever Mudd!
4:23 am
Mudd
Here is my golden clue for the morning ... In my humble op7, a half as7 heart regimen at bedtime is a good idea and should be part of our ha7 (British sp. of course).
4:23 am
Sally-catlover
Oh, big thank you mudd!!!
4:24 am
Mudd
At least at my age with my family history it has to be.
4:25 am
Mudd
And that is all of the 7s. And with that, I am going back to bed.
4:25 am
lynxxx
night Mudd
4:35 am
Soodle
Mudd's clues were great, but the final HA one is eluding me - anybody got a clue?
4:36 am
lynxxx
put a be in front and it would make more sense
4:36 am
Sally-catlover
There;s an ha 7/36 and an ha 7/48. Which one do you want?
4:37 am
Soodle
I have the one associated with your tresses
4:37 am
Soodle
No matter - monkeyed it!!
4:39 am
Sally-catlover
Soodle, I just love your profile words. Am copying and sending to someone I know!
4:40 am
Soodle
Words I try to live my life by, Sally. LOL
4:40 am
Jayk
i get as far as the tresses and don't see the rest
4:40 am
Jayk
oh yeah! there it is
4:40 am
Soodle
Jayk - the final ha word normally has the letters BE preceeding it.
4:41 am
lynxxx
the inmate didn't get parole because of bad beHA*****
4:44 am
Soodle
I have said that more than once in this grid, Jayk!
4:48 am
Soodle
What about the na 5/14 - even Morewords isn't helping me with that one....?
4:53 am
lynxxx
babies wear na**i*s
4:55 am
Soodle
The grid won't accept that word from me, Lyn....
4:55 am
lynxxx

4:56 am
Soodle
Aaaarrrrggghhhhh. Thank you Lynn
4:56 am

This is a Horrible Grid!
5:06 am
Sally-catlover
yup, really struggling and don't want to list for such a small one.
5:07 am
Jayk
worse than horrible: completely wretched! i can't find the pi 5 or 6--maybe the fist ones
5:08 am
Sally-catlover
I have a pi 6/21, don't know if that's the one you want.
5:10 am
Jayk
it might be--there's 2 of them
5:10 am
Soodle
The first pi 6/21 is the same as the op 7/32, minus the first letter, and the second pi 6/21 is the Latin plural of PI 5/12
5:11 am
Sally-catlover
OK, I now have two pi 6/21s and a pi 5/12. Do you want clues?
5:11 am
Sally-catlover
Yeah - wot soodle said.
5:11 am
Jayk
cept i don't have the pi 5/12
5:12 am
Soodle
PI plus double cons and ends with first vowel. It means the outer part of your ear.
5:13 am
Sally-catlover
Does it soodle? Didn't know that. Thought it meant a feather.
5:13 am
Jayk
sheesh! thx. 4 left
5:13 am
lshult
have op7 & ha7.....can someone point me in the direction of the other 2 7's?????PLZ
5:13 am
Sally-catlover
Ah, see there are three definitions, including both ours.
5:14 am
Sally-catlover
Another ha7
5:14 am
Soodle
And an AS 7.
5:14 am
Sally-catlover
And an as 7 which is a common headache medication
5:14 am
Jayk
2 ha 7s--one having to do with the top of your head and the other very stupid: bad be*******
5:16 am
Soodle
Sally - I just remembered the PI 5 word from a biology class long ago, when the teacher caught hold of my ear, and nearly pulled it off my head, because I didn't know what it was called. The shock treatment worked, cos I never blooming forgot it!
5:17 am
Sally-catlover
lol soodle!
5:17 am
lshult
got all the 7's, thanks all
5:18 am
Sally-catlover
Oh dear, just monkeyed the aj 5, and no wiser having looked at the definition!
5:19 am
Sally-catlover
pr 5/12 is microscopic particle
5:20 am
Jayk
well so it is! thx
5:21 am
Nancy Boy

5:22 am
Sally-catlover
Welcome to the grid from hell, NB!
5:22 am
Nancy Boy
I'm sensing that, Sally! only 10 words in and it's just awful
5:23 am
Soodle
And it doesn't get any better, Nancy!!
5:23 am
Nancy Boy
scrolled back and got the as7 from your clue, though, thanks :)
5:24 am
Jayk
hi NB--yeah, woke up at 4 and couldn't sleep anymore. been at this wretched thing for 2 hours
5:24 am
Sally-catlover
I didn't think that one would work, but I suppose it's a generic word and not a proper name.
5:24 am
Jayk
ok, i'm down to the horrible unfindable sp 5s
5:25 am
Nancy Boy
it might be like 'heroin' - once a brand name but now the accepted name
5:25 am
nurse1000
any help with the pr5/12 please?
5:25 am
Nancy Boy
Oh I hate that, Jayk :/ though when I have insomnia, I'm at my most productive. If I can't sleep, I get up and clean something!
5:25 am
Jayk
heroin was a brand name?
5:26 am
Jayk
there's plenty here to clean, but i must get grimly through this first!
5:26 am
Sally-catlover
You get up and clean something NB? Shropshire is lovely, you should visit :-)
5:26 am
Nancy Boy
Believe so, yep, from when it was first marketed as a "non-addictive alternative" to morphine...blew up in a few faces, I imagine
5:27 am
Nancy Boy
always, Sally! We need more than daylight hours to keep the army of dust-bunnies at bay
5:28 am
Jayk
i found one!
5:28 am
Sally-catlover
I just take off my glasses, then I don't see the dust bunnies.
5:28 am
Sally-catlover
A dust bunny or a word jayk?
5:28 am
Nancy Boy
LOL Sally, my question exactly

5:51 am
guernseygirl

5:56 am
Scrabbler
Do you live on Guernsey?
5:56 am
guernseygirl
Born and brought up there, but now near Birmingham
5:58 am
Scrabbler
Not an easy grid I am guessing.
5:58 am
guernseygirl
no. it's got some very strange words in it, including two aj's that i can't find
5:59 am
Scrabbler
aj + double vowel.
6:00 am
guernseygirl
ty. another one i hadn't come across before. i only wish i could remember them all.
6:00 am
Scrabbler
It was in a grid just 2-3 days ago, I think.
6:01 am
Nancy Boy
Oh, morning you two :) slipped off to get a cup of tea and got distracted by the kitty
6:01 am
guernseygirl
that might have been the day when i never got round to it. if it's a very big grid, i'm better not to start it or i'm up till all hours.

Good morning Annie! Are you also having summery weather? It was in high 70s yesterday, and will be same for today + tomorrow.
6:03 am
Anniebrook
Scrabbs, Looks like a beautiful is coming up..I have all my windows open way up which makes me happy
6:04 am
guernseygirl
Lucky lucky Annie and Scrabbler. it's cold and raining here.
6:05 am
Scrabbler
I opened windows and removed storm panes on storm doors last evening after work. The fresh air was great. I work all day today though. It's usually my day off my my partners are off for the holidays.
6:05 am
Anniebrook

6:06 am
Nancy Boy
Amen to that, Guernsey.
6:06 am
Anniebrook
Nono!!! Where have you been? How is your hubby?
6:06 am
Scrabbler
Oh, the flooding is awful in Rhode Island--I am watching NBC.
6:07 am
NonoNanette
been around but not chatting lately Annie not too much time. Hubby is imporving slowly thanks for asking
6:07 am
Anniebrook
It is heartbreaking. So many people lost everything.
6:07 am
Scrabbler
Was he quite ill?
6:07 am
NonoNanette
omg yes! I feel so bad for them. I know exactly what they are going thru having been thru it myself once
6:08 am
NonoNanette
Scrabs he had a bout with pneumonia and CHF which left him very weakened so had been in a rehab center
6:08 am
Scrabbler
Oh, my. But he is improving?
6:09 am
NonoNanette
slowly yes
6:09 am
Scrabbler
One day at a time, Nono.
6:10 am
NonoNanette
thats how we try to do it Scrabs
6:12 am
Scrabbler
I am stuck after just 34.
6:13 am
NonoNanette
its that kind of grid, Scrabs. These words sure dont jump out at me
6:13 am
Scrabbler
BRB--going to grab breakfast.
6:15 am
Anniebrook
good idea, going to put up a pot of coffee
6:29 am
Anniebrook

6:30 am
NonoNanette

6:30 am
Scrabbler
Back with hot farina with blueberries.
6:30 am
NonoNanette

6:31 am
Anniebrook
*pours coffee for Nono--puts out cream and sugar*
6:31 am
NonoNanette
think i'll fix some oatmeal with apples
6:31 am
Scrabbler
I switched to tea a few wks ago. Occasional coffee but not my usual 4 cups every morning.
6:31 am
NonoNanette
Thanks Annie, no cream or sugar needed here
6:31 am
Anniebrook
I usually have 2 cups of coffee every morning.
6:32 am
Anniebrook
scrabbs, do you miss not having coffee?
6:33 am
Scrabbler
I don't LOVE coffee but drank/drink it for caffeine. I decided to go off and see if my migraine frequency will drop off.
6:34 am
Anniebrook
I hope it helps not having coffee.
6:35 am
Scrabbler
"eeny" should be a word...eeny, meeny, miny, mo...

6:37 am
Nancy Boy
I didn't know you suffered with migraines, Scrabbs. Leo gets pretty bad ones. Any recommended miracle cures?
6:38 am
Scrabbler
Nope, Kaplan, I already tried that.
6:38 am
Kaplan the Magne
I mean good morning
6:38 am
Anniebrook
hello Kaplan, need one I do not have
6:38 am
Scrabbler
I take the generic equivalent of MigreLief---magnesium + vitamin B complex + feverfew==daily pprevention
6:38 am
Kaplan the Magne
Can't oblige
6:39 am
Scrabbler
Neurologists recommend that combo--research it, NB
6:39 am
Nancy Boy
Prevention is what we aim for. Thanks! The problem with most migraine cures is that they seem to completely knock the patient out.
6:40 am
Nancy Boy
I figured that you, being a doc and all, might be safer than google ;)
6:40 am
Scrabbler
And this is natural.
6:42 am
Nancy Boy
quite. in that case, I'm off to research that more thoroughly! thanks, Scrabbler, much appreciated
6:42 am
Scrabbler
YW, NB...and I must quickly get ready for work--I am supposed to leave in 3 minutes, haha.

6:32 pm
herinfernallady
I would love to say something to this mum in person but she has blocked messages. I would also love to call out the names that bullied me whilst going there, the fact that my friends friends kids go there and they are being bullied but you can't because it would not achieve anything other than being a troll
6:33 pm
KrisE
Near here a 15-yr-old committed suicide after being bullied at school, and now the bullies are being prosecuted
6:33 pm

Kris Many many years ago I said that the biggest cults in USA schools was not the little ''freaks'' in black but the cheerleaders and jocks that get away with everything now doesn't suprise me in the least.

Ok good Red. But still owies
6:36 pm

I think now with19 left and pain, I shall being getting the list.
6:37 pm
KrisE
You've earned the list, red. I've been on it for a while now.
6:37 pm
redturtlehead
I really think the bigger problem is not any group of children but a lack of parenting these days and a lack of school people getting any clue whats going on.
6:37 pm
Minveryork
I got story of clues in my profile today redturtlehead
6:38 pm
redturtlehead
yes, Min I used it, it gve me one word I didnt have, thanks!

Oh, sorry it was not more helpful. Good luck with list.
6:39 pm
Scrabbler
That's so true, Red---parents not teaching their kids to be respectful + responsible. Parents not supervising their kids well enough. And school administrations don't want publicity about drug or violence problems.
6:39 pm
Minveryork
Hello Scrabbler! How are you doing? Welcome to grid!
6:39 pm
Good Enough
i just spent a ridiculous amount of time looking for he5. mind your plurals people!!
6:39 pm
herinfernallady
Red I say this complete with sarcasim. I thought that we were meant to do their parenting for them Have our video games violent movies banned all because some parent cant say NO to their kid
6:39 pm
Scrabbler
I am on call again (2 nights in a row) and want it to be 8 AM tomorrow.
6:40 pm
Minveryork
Hello Good Enough! That happens to me all of the time
6:40 pm
herinfernallady
I find it so amusing that a 19 year old class mate thinks like me due to the way she has been brought up. Even though there is close to a generation difference she still thinks that most of her peers are rude and disrespectful
6:40 pm
Scrabbler
I do not like this grid. Not with a fox, not on a box, I do not like this grid, Sam I Am.
6:41 pm
KrisE
I'm with you, Scrabbler. I don't like it either.
6:41 pm
redturtlehead
I also think Herin that is is very very difficult to be a parent these days and a lot of people do their best and their best just isnt maybe that good.
6:41 pm
Minveryork
It's definitely a braintwister Scrabbler,but it's doable
6:41 pm

Hi Scrabbs!
6:42 pm

I estimate that 25% of parents that I see in my office want to have respectful, responsible kids and work hard to create good future adults.

6:51 pm
jmitch
I've tried that method but ADHD kicks in and I end up scattershot across the entire grid
6:52 pm
Scrabbler
Nope, nrkii does that, and maybe Hurshy. I go randomly and grab what I see. Then I focus on one tile at a time. Then I go to the list. Then I beg profusely. Then I give up and quit if I pass halfway.
6:53 pm

6:57 pm

the only thing I put on it is the aloe. it helped.

8:15 pm
Riverdance
I have trouble coaxing everyone in my house except for my husband
8:15 pm
hawknoah
What a coincidence, I'm 39 too. Got about 8 months before that fateful day..
8:16 pm
Riverdance
I just joined myself - I understand - but then I thought *hey self its only $14.95 for a lifetime - I spend more on a bottle of wine* - its well worth it
8:16 pm

Thanks, Min. That is fireworks....see y'all at the flip.
8:16 pm
Riverdance

8:17 pm
Minveryork
My hubby also needs coaxing to go to bed when he is up partying. He will stay up until 2:00 in the morning.

hawknoah
ok time to work my magic on my daughter.. thanks all for the help & have a great night
8:20 pm
Minveryork
hawknoah,not only is it a coincidence that you're 39 but it is also a coincidence that my last name starts w/Hawk.What's the meaning of your name hawknoah
8:20 pm
Minveryork
Goodbye hawknoah!I will see you tomorrow in the log
8:21 pm
hawknoah
it's just an email alias that's stuck with me over the years for no real reason. My wife created it when we first got an AOL account

8:21 pm
Riverdance
time to say good night if no one needs anymore help - see you all tomorrow

gwenski
That's my grandbabies! They'll be 28 weeks gestational age on Sunday.
9:03 pm
torgone
Heya gwen ..
9:04 pm
Trifioso
so interesting, how they each have their own "rooms" so to speak
9:04 pm
gwenski
And they are trying to make an early appearance. Daughter-in-law has been hospitalized for a week, and looks to stay there until delivery. Hopefully not for a few more weeks, but you never know.
9:04 pm
Trifioso
Ham sounds good! Do you guys eat lamb?
9:04 pm
Trifioso
----> will say a prayer for her, gwen. are they nearby?
9:05 pm
gwenski
They just moved to San Antonio. I'm in NC. But they are closer to us now than when they lived in Hawaii!
9:06 pm
Trifioso
yes, but a bummer they aren't closer. I am sure you would LOVE to help with the little one, whilst she is in her confinement, as the victorians said....
9:06 pm
torgone
Hope it turns out okay gwen
9:06 pm
gwenski
Thanks for the prayers. Anyone on Facebook can join a group set up for them: "Prayer Warriors for Khloe and Joah" (the twins' names)
9:06 pm
torgone
I have not tried to make lamb yet ..
9:06 pm
Trifioso

Yep. girl=Khloe Reese. boy=Joah Scott.
9:07 pm
Trifioso

9:07 pm
Trifioso
"gwen" would have been nice too.....
9:08 pm
gwenski
"Khlo-Jo" is my nickname to refer to them both. Not sure the kids really appreciate that! Well, Reese is my maiden name, so that counts.
9:08 pm
Trifioso
Khlo-Jo! too funny! and props on the Reese
9:08 pm

Hello Fellow Babblers. How are you tonight?
9:10 pm
Trifioso
hey there nef!
9:12 pm
Nef
Hi Trifio! Gwenski, I always called the wrong name when talking to my kids, so they joke that their name was "Bu-Ann" instead of Bob and Anne
9:13 pm
gwenski
My mom would sometimes include the dog's name when trying to call the kids! Now that's really bad!!
9:13 pm
Trifioso
did you ever hear bill cosby's riff on names? He said when he was a child, he thought his name was "goddammit" and his brother's name was "jesus christ" as that is what their dad always yelled - "jesus christ, turn that down! goddammit stop making that noise!"
9:14 pm
gwenski
I think I heard that one. And I remember the one he did about feeding them cake for breakfast.
9:14 pm
Nef
Oh, My Trifio!
9:15 pm
Barb's Horses
hello all 33 to go now

Barb's Horses
I have called my husband by my son's name and visa versa...they just sit there stunned
9:16 pm
Trifioso
my neighbor just had a child, and they named it after the dad....
9:18 pm
Nef
LOL! When I get upset about something, I'll be reading them the riot act (they are now 30 and 27, BTW) and I say something REALLY stupid by accident. Sort of like: "Why is it you never can comb the coat?" makes NO sense at all; and they stare at me and burst out laughing. I get so MAD at that!
9:19 pm
Trifioso
comb the coat???
9:19 pm
Trifioso
it is pretty funny
9:19 pm
Barb's Horses

9:20 pm
Nef
yeah. Makes no sense at all and *that* sort of stuff pops out whenever I'm upset
9:21 pm
Nef
LOL! I once had finished bathing a patient at work and was settling him for sleep and I told him I was putting "2 heads under his pillow!"
9:21 pm
Trifioso
when my son was little, he was really, really mad at me, and didn't have the language to express how mad he was, and in absolute fury he said "YOU ARE A REAAAAAALLLYYY BAD ACTRESS!" and I about fell over laughing, which made him even madder
9:22 pm
Barb's Horses

9:22 pm
Nef
I meant 2 pillows under his head. (He was very ill, and I was trying so hard to help him relax and rest)
9:22 pm
Barb's Horses

9:23 pm
Trifioso

10:15 pm

Hmm, aj5 is a term in Jainism - I know almost nothing of Jainism.
10:15 pm
Nef
GO, TOR! You can do it!
10:16 pm
jillibus
I looked it up too, grem ;)

aebmusica
ty gremlinn
10:17 pm
Nef
great clue, gremlin! Thanks
10:17 pm
gremlinn
If aj5 is a word, then so should be it without the a- in front, it seems. Not consistent, Enable!
10:18 pm
jillibus
grem, the def says that IS a word, but I guess enable doesn't know or care
10:19 pm
Minveryork
Go torgone go!
10:19 pm
gremlinn
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. It's as if "asymmetry" were a word but "symmetry" weren't.
10:19 pm
Minveryork
Hello all! I am back from watching "General Hospital".
10:19 pm
jillibus
hello min
10:19 pm

11:29 pm
stidmama
oh well, I dived in fast. up to to ten already.
11:29 pm
J. C.
Well, hello stidmama - that's quite a greeting! :) It's doable if you're not me, apparently...
11:29 pm
jillibus
It's doable for YOU, maybe, stid! a few words which were new to gremlin -- need I say more?
11:29 pm
stidmama
gah. I am doomed, jill -- unless the "new" words are anything about teaching theory?
11:30 pm
jillibus
want a clue for aj5?
11:30 pm
stidmama
JC, when Mother and I visited Jill, she made us a SPECTACULAR recipe you had sent, rice and veggies and red wine. It was DELISH.
11:30 pm
PAV3
allo peeps! It's great to see Miss Jilli AND the wonderful Sir J.C....and stidmama, Jane
11:30 pm
jillibus
I just made another batch so I'll have lots to freeze.

In my world, I get to knight anyone I please...no offense intended...

11:33 pm
stidmama
down to 61
11:33 pm
J. C.
HAHAHA. Yes, quite - tiara. ;)
11:34 pm
J. C.
Awww, well thank you PAV! :)
11:35 pm
stidmama

11:35 pm
jillibus

J. C.
Thank you for that, Jilli. :)
11:35 pm
jillibus

11:35 pm

11:37 pm
jillibus
now I'm going for a wee bit!
11:37 pm
stidmama
beheaded, jill???
11:38 pm
stidmama
down to 48...
11:38 pm
PAV3
Miss Jilli., while you were on your forced vaca, I managed to succeed at not falling off the treadmill, and the good doc...all two years old of him, said I am normally abnormal...the tick is a tick and otherwise I'm fine...
11:38 pm
J. C.
Tick, PAV?
11:39 pm
stidmama
oh! I got the clue!!! LOL
11:39 pm
PAV3
slight anomaly on a resting EKG sent me to the cardiologist for an in depth look-see
11:40 pm
J. C.
Ah. I have to get checked soon. :/
11:40 pm
J. C.
You're not the only abnormal one. :P
11:40 pm
stidmama
is the JA 5 fishy?
11:41 pm
PAV3
I like knowing I've a "condition" that will preclude me from engaging in death-defying activities
11:41 pm
stidmama
gah. yes, sushi-fishy! LOL
11:41 pm
J. C.
Ah. Perhaps I do, which will mean I won't be repeating my skydive anytime soon. I had already decided that at the time, though. :P
11:41 pm
stidmama
I have a condition that prevents the same thing, PAV. It's called "cowardice" ... I am highly risk-averse!
11:42 pm
J. C.
Yes. I have been a parachuting poofter...
11:42 pm
stidmama
how about the na 5?
11:42 pm
PAV3
I am not terribly "risk-averse", I'd just rather not get excited about anything labor intensive...like houseowrk
11:43 pm
J. C.
I actually am, but I risked it for a biscuit. I was willing, for a shilling...
11:43 pm
PAV3
I've been ballooning twice...first time involuntary, the second was a gift...very peaceful, once you get over the height issue...
11:44 pm
stidmama
just visiting Jill is about as scary as I can handle. I am such a scaredy-cat.
11:44 pm
jillibus
I will NEVER sky-dive. Not this acrophobiac!
11:44 pm
J. C.
Jill is scary?
11:44 pm
jillibus
I don't even like getting up a step on a ladder.
11:44 pm
stidmama
no, travel is scary. Being away from home is scary.
11:44 pm
stidmama
jill dear.... na 5 please?
11:44 pm
stidmama
and the first ni 5 too, if you can?
11:45 pm
jillibus
Well, thanks, stid, I'm suuure. ;)
11:45 pm
jillibus
na5 -- dbl the cons in the back of your neck
11:45 pm
PAV3
to get over it ( for a while) I went to Six Flags Magic Maountaain in CA for aweekend with friends..we hit up every "coaster type" ride there was...I had to take my glasses off so I couldn't see what was happening...much easier to deal with the unknown than the visually known...
11:45 pm
jillibus
ni5 teenage mutant ni*** turtles (again)
11:46 pm
J. C.
I am not getting any of these clues. :/
11:46 pm

11:47 pm
stidmama

11:47 pm
PAV3
well I'm not entering any words, but I can still brsh up on my vision skills...
11:47 pm
J. C.
I don't, Jilli.
11:48 pm
J. C.
And I did that...
11:48 pm
jillibus
Oh well, JC, wait until after the flip.
11:48 pm
PAV3
Lord knows I need all the practise I can get...
11:48 pm
jillibus
stid -- I LOVE your icon!
11:49 pm
stidmama

11:49 pm

11:56 pm
