Good question, kje!

1:05 am

J. C.

G'night, Dee

1:06 am

VolleymomDee

strong scores in education.... Actually, the large orthopedic companies originated here, kje, in 1865.

1:06 am

VolleymomDee

Zimmer, DePuy, Biomet, a Medtronic plant, etc.

1:07 am

kje

yes, def would give a good ecoomic base

1:07 am

VolleymomDee

extremely conservative area, however, so we travel to Indy or Chicago for cultural events.

1:08 am

VolleymomDee

Until this last economic downswing, we had never had layoffs before... got hit this last time though.

1:08 am

VolleymomDee

It's killing our housing market....

1:15 am

flosey

1:18 am

J. C.

It is, yes - not an easy one.

1:19 am

Jellen

Hi, jhb

1:19 am

m9f9l

yes. thankful for lickety!

1:19 am

jillibus

hi jhb, dopey me!

1:19 am

J. C.

Ah, I haven't listed yet but must soon.

1:20 am

m9f9l

i was way past 1/2way when i did.. I just don't have time lately to not list.

1:21 am

J. C.

Well of course - you're a lot better at this than me.

1:21 am

Soodle

Lol. I am doing this listless and without my specs.... A double challenge..

1:21 am

m9f9l

i don't do ANYthing without my specs!LOL

1:21 am

jillibus

I can't look at the computer with my specs on -- wrong angle

1:22 am

m9f9l

except for things in bed. sleep... talk to Gage.. talk to Tim.... ahem....

1:22 am

J. C.

Ahem? :P

1:22 am

Soodle

If I scrunch up my eyes - I can just about make out the difference between the letters.... Oh and hold the laptop at arms length...

1:22 am

Jellen

Ahem??

1:23 am

J. C.

No. I can't say I've ever done 'ahem' with my glasses on. Well. Perhaps sort of...

1:23 am

m9f9l

1:23 am

jillibus

1:24 am

Jellen

1:24 am

J. C.

Time to list - strongly resisting.

1:25 am

m9f9l

have you made one last pass on the tiles that still have a lot of words to be found?

1:26 am

J. C.

If a cat can pu4,6 then how is a cat that is doing that not a pu4,6er?

1:26 am

Soodle

H

1:26 am

J. C.

Repeatedly, m9. :/ It's Ian's fault.

1:26 am

jillibus

should be, JC

1:26 am

J. C.

It's always his fault. He's been distracting me.

1:26 am

Soodle

Yikes. That was close..

1:27 am

m9f9l

oh! ehem??

1:27 am

m9f9l

quick! put specs on!

1:27 am

J. C.

Talking to me while getting ready to leave for work.

1:27 am

m9f9l

1:28 am

J. C.

Goodness. Get your mind out of the gutter, m9. Tut.

1:28 am

Soodle

Can't find them! Everything is fuzzy!!

1:28 am

J. C.

Yes. Repeatedly. :P

1:28 am

m9f9l

at least my gutters are fairly clean.

1:29 am

m9f9l

i listed and didn't have ANY or words. or om words. hate it when i realize something like that.

1:29 am

J. C.

I'm a fine one to be telling anyone to get their mine out of the gutter, wouldn't you say?

1:29 am

J. C.

Erm - or 'mind' even.

1:30 am

1:33 am

Soodle

Hi Jellen - I didn't see you coming in. How are you?

1:33 am

BigFootedMonster

"Looks like I picked a bad week to quick snorting cocaine." LOL

1:33 am

FishFishGarden

"Look's liek I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue"

1:33 am

BigFootedMonster

Or "quit," even. Ugh

1:33 am

m9f9l

quick snorting?

1:33 am

Jellen

I'm okay, Soodle...

1:33 am

J. C.

Ah, FishFishGarden - were your ears burning a little earlier? I wish I knew where to forward an email you were talked about in - you would laugh.

1:33 am

FishFishGarden

"Do you like movies about gladiators?"

1:33 am

Soodle

Any developments?

1:34 am

BigFootedMonster

Have you read Ulysses?

1:34 am

Jellen

Not really...

1:34 am

BigFootedMonster

Surely you can't be serious.

1:34 am

m9f9l

the chog has gone completely non sequitor!

1:35 am

m9f9l

quit calling me shirley

1:35 am

FishFishGarden

Let me through...I speak jive

1:35 am

J. C.

Nice photo, BigFooted - you need a shave even worse than I do.

1:36 am

BigFootedMonster

I tried plucking, but I couldn't keep up. :(

1:37 am

J. C.

I guess not, BigFooted - and waxing would be much too painful for you!

1:37 am

BigFootedMonster

That is my best side. :)

1:38 am

m9f9l

yeah.. pretty bad case of hirsutism

1:38 am

J. C.

OK. Briefly one may get through.

1:41 am

m9f9l

no.. looking again at the pic.. i think it's a case of hypertrichosis

1:41 am

J. C.

It's...something. :P

1:42 am

BigFootedMonster

Now you can understand why I'm very shy and rarely photographed.

1:42 am

J. C.

So shy you posted a 'nude' photo of yourself, yes.

1:43 am

m9f9l

google hypertrichosis in images.

1:43 am

J. C.

I had better not, m9. Hairy things scare me.

1:44 am

J. C.

I'm trembling as it is...

1:44 am

m9f9l

there's no pics of the toes! really!

1:45 am

J. C.

Ah. Well that might not be so bad, then.

1:46 am

J. C.

Ah yes, seen similar pictures before.

1:46 am

jillibus

I'm half asleep and tomorrow's a full day, so goodnight all. Not doing well with this toughie -- 87/70.

1:46 am

J. C.

Part of me looks like that if I don't shave. :P

1:46 am

m9f9l

your back?

1:47 am

m9f9l

LOL

1:47 am

J. C.

But I do, so most are none the wiser.

1:52 am

m9f9l

1:53 am

J. C.

I'm much too poncey for that.

1:53 am

J. C.

And what do you mean, you see I have 5 o'clock shadow, hmmm? :/

1:54 am

m9f9l

1:55 am

J. C.

Ah.

Well not really - only barely.

hi Flosey

2:33 am

Haz1558

Hello, lynxxx.

2:34 am

lynxxx

morning Haz

2:35 am

Haz1558

I don't like the look of this grid, or is it just bad first impression?

2:35 am

lynxxx

You are right, it's nasty

2:36 am

FMitch

Morning Haz and lynxxx
It is a really good grid once you get stuck in, the words just keep-a-coming.

2:36 am

Haz1558

Oh dear. Always trust your first instinct.

2:36 am

lynxxx

Morning FM

2:36 am

Haz1558

Good morning FM.

2:36 am

lynxxx

Don't believe her Haz

2:36 am

FMitch

but ... but!

2:37 am

Haz1558

It's a plot. We're wise to her.

2:37 am

FMitch

*sniff and wibbly lip* I enjoyed it.

2:38 am

Haz1558

Honestly, turning on the waterworks just to try to convince us.

2:38 am

lynxxx

well done FM, it seems seriously hard to me

2:39 am

FMitch

I did overfeed my monkeys a tad for some words.

2:39 am

Haz1558

So far, it's all individual words with a few plurals. Any hope of sequences?

2:40 am

FMitch

a couple of sequences

2:41 am

Haz1558

I'm all for the sequences.

2:41 am

FMitch

and a fair bit of US/UK spellings

2:42 am

Haz1558

Have to go for a while. Husband needs the computer. (you'd think he'd find a cow to calve or something to keep him out of mischief) Bye for now!

2:43 am

FMitch

TTFN

2:43 am

lynxxx

bye Haz

2:44 am

lynxxx

I'm going to take a break and do some housewifely things - Bye FM, have a good day

2:44 am

FMitch

okey dokey Lynxxx byeee.

2:53 am

sprite

morning all

2:55 am

FMitch

Morning spritey sprite!

2:56 am

sprite

hey FM :)
Today's icon theme is in honor of your love ;)

2:56 am

FMitch

LOL yours is a cutie!

2:57 am

sprite

:D

2:57 am

sprite

am pr5, have done all themes for the rest of the year.

2:58 am

FMitch

wtg!
How are you this fair morning?

2:58 am

sprite

reasonably well, thanks. And you?

2:59 am

FMitch

about the same as you I think, at least it has stopped raining so we might see some sun today.

3:00 am

sprite

am hoping for that, it is very overcast but dry here as well. And the birds are very active. Reason for hope :)

3:00 am

sprite

*giggles* Shall I drive everybody crazy by claiming I like the -ing ending?

3:01 am

FMitch

I smiled when I found that - just as well there isn't one in the grid otherwise the PB would be packed out.

3:02 am

sprite

good for a giggle and a smile :)

3:02 am

FMitch

a laugh is always the best way to start the day :)

3:03 am

FMitch

I've got to go and do some work emails back in about 15.

3:03 am

sprite

I fully agree.

3:03 am

sprite

bye for now, FM :)

3:18 am

FMitch

... and I'm back. How are you getting on with the grid sprite?

3:19 am

sprite

100 down, 57 left. So far smooth sailing.

3:19 am

sprite

and welcome back :)

3:19 am

FMitch

Thought you would enjoy it.

3:20 am

sprite

I enjoy almost all grids. Am easy to please ;)
How are you doing with the word hunt?

3:21 am

FMitch

I'm done but I was up early so got a head start. HAd to list for the last 20 or so and had a few red bars of doom along the way.

3:22 am

sprite

gratz! Did you like it?

3:22 am

FMitch

yes it was a fun one.

3:22 am

Christine

A very good early-morning, from Los Angeles

3:22 am

FMitch

Morning Christine.

3:23 am

sprite

hi Christine, a very good morning to you too.

3:23 am

FMitch

How is LA today?

3:24 am

sprite

*pictures Christine hanging out of window, asking Hey LA how are you today!"

3:24 am

FMitch

lol

3:26 am

Christine

It's almost 1:30am, and my neighborhood is very quiet, except for all the ambulance noises -- I live near three large hospitals. Still, it's comforting to know that the people in trouble have someone ministering to them.

3:27 am

sprite

and are you being sleepless in LA or just up late?

3:27 am

FMitch

Are you having a late night or suffering from insomnia?

3:27 am

Christine

Just woke up - fell asleep at ^pm.

3:27 am

sprite

snap, FM

3:28 am

sprite

sounds rather off schedule?

3:28 am

Christine

*6pm

3:29 am

Christine

Good Lord, I just looked at the grid ... no way there's 157 words there !!

3:29 am

sprite

it is easier than it looks

3:30 am

FMitch

A cbit of babbling and hopefully you will get some more zzzzzz.

3:30 am

Christine

Babbling keeps me awake. I really have to force myself to leave the chat.

3:31 am

sprite

don't force too hard right now or you might succeed. And I like your company :)

3:32 am

Christine

I love being here. The grid/games are interesting, but the chat is even better.

3:33 am

sprite

but it looks like you had about a full sleeping period off time, Christine? Are you working shifts or is this insomnia speaking?

3:34 am

Christine

No, I'm retired, and I stay up, all night, reading, if I'm not on Babble.

3:34 am

FMitch

I agree Christine, sometimes I come in just for the chat even if I am not doing the grid.

3:34 am

sprite

following your natural rhythm? Wow.

3:35 am

Haz1558

Hello, I'm back again. Good morning/evening all.

3:35 am

sprite

wb Haz, and good morning

3:35 am

Christine

One of the many nice things about retirement (especially if you live alone) is the freedom to sleep when you want to.

3:35 am

FMitch

Hello again Haz, you managed to regain control of the computer?

3:36 am

Christine

Hello, Haz -- found a cow in calf for your husband?

3:36 am

sprite

sent hubby calving?

3:36 am

Haz1558

Yes, I don't know what he was doing exactly but at least he was able to get it done without needing assistance. He asks questions about computers that I can't answer, I only know if you press this button or that, it works.

3:37 am

FMitch

and speaking nicely to the printer always helps :)

3:38 am

Haz1558

The printer and I nearly had a row last week but I showed it the uninstall/reinstall disc and it behaved beautifully.

3:38 am

FMitch

LOL!

3:39 am

sprite

well done

3:39 am

Haz1558

You've got to take a firm hand sometimes.

3:40 am

sprite

absolutely. When I still had my laptop, just opening the window a bit wider always did the trick.

3:40 am

Haz1558

Why don't they include these helpful tips in the instruction manual? Why do you have to discover them for yourself?

3:41 am

sprite

probably made by males?

3:42 am

Haz1558

I think they just want you to get so exasperated that you buy another one.

3:42 am

FMitch

Because the manuals are written by n4/6's

3:43 am

sprite

giving up hope any word in this grid will be a 'person who' with the very low clouds ending.

3:44 am

sprite

though a person who is always late should be called a tardomist.

3:44 am

FMitch

It is a waste isn't it sprite.

3:45 am

sprite

very much so

3:45 am

Haz1558

And an aromist should know their od6/24

3:45 am

sprite

exactly!

3:48 am

FMitch

I see a couple of French words have found their way into the grid today.

3:49 am

sprite

are those the ones I thought were british spelling?

3:49 am

FMitch

ummm I don't think so.

3:49 am

Haz1558

Turn right for the green vegetable.

3:50 am

lynxxx

The do6.24 is back. Hello Sprite

3:50 am

sprite

hi lyn :)

3:50 am

Haz1558

Hello, lynxx.

3:50 am

FMitch

Have you finished your housewifely things lynxxx?

3:52 am

lynxxx

I have. And had my apple and cheese. Trying a new diet and having vague headaches - I think from sugar withdrawels.

3:52 am

sprite

brave, lyn! Are you drinking enough water?

3:53 am

lynxxx

probably not

3:53 am

FMitch

You are lucky you can eat cheese in the evening, I can't anymore gives me really weird dreams.

3:54 am

sprite

2 liters a day isn't too much when you are detoxing. My personal trick is: drink a glass of water every time you go to the toilet.

3:57 am

Christine

Someone, it might've been my doctor, suggested drinking a glass of water for every two pounds -- another good reason to LOSE the excess weight.

3:57 am

sprite

fireflies. Easy grid.

3:57 am

FMitch

*wonders if Christine has dropped off or buried herself in the grid*

3:57 am

Christine

wth, Sprite

3:57 am

FMitch

Oh there she is :)

Congrats spritey sprite!

3:57 am

Christine

******wtG

3:57 am

lynxxx

I'd float out to sea!

3:58 am

sprite

thanks :)

3:58 am

Becca Lorum

Good morning Babblers

3:58 am

Christine

FMitch, I now have an astounding 39 words !!

3:58 am

sprite

me too! Cannot imagine anyone drinking that much water

3:58 am

FMitch

Hello Becca!

3:58 am

lynxxx

Congrats Sprite (though you sound too much like FM!)

3:58 am

sprite

morning Becca

3:58 am

lynxxx

hi Becca

3:58 am

Christine

Hello, Becca

3:58 am

FMitch

yay Christine *grin*

3:59 am

sprite

I can't help it! Blame FM!

3:59 am

FMitch

what did I do now?

3:59 am

Christine

I do try to drink water, but I rilly, rilly hate the taste. Okay, I don't hate, but I sure don't ;ike it.

3:59 am

sprite

making me sound like you of course

4:00 am

lynxxx

The two of you and your 'simple' grid

4:00 am

FMitch

Ahhh

4:00 am

sprite

a few drops of lemon (or lemonade if you are a sweet tooth) might help, Christine

4:00 am

Christine

I have two water bottles, 20oz and 25oz, and I keep refilling them

4:01 am

Christine

I no longer have a sweet tooth: I gave up sugar a year ago -- can pass up all manner of sweeties, choclits, cakes and pies.

4:01 am

sprite

*hugs FM*
It is a tough burden to carry, I know...

4:01 am

FMitch

Doesn't just have to be water, you could do different teas so long as they are caffine free.

4:02 am

sprite

woot, now I remember, it was you who did that. Great job.

4:02 am

FMitch

lol ((sprite))

4:02 am

Becca Lorum

I used to drink gallons, ten realised that it wasn't actually good for me. Now I just take in what my body asks for.

4:03 am

FMitch

Loving the icon Becca.

4:03 am

lynxxx

I am a bit sad - gave up the cigarettes and took up baking. Now I have to give up the baking

4:03 am

lynxxx

gallons of what Becca?

4:03 am

Becca Lorum

Thanks FM. Needs updating really, that pic's over a year old now.

4:03 am

FMitch

gin?

4:04 am

Becca Lorum

LOL lynx. Gallons of water, of course!

4:04 am

sprite

just the eating of the baking, lyn, not the baking itself ;)

4:04 am

Christine

oesn't it seem too much water would wash away some necessary things - I don't mean organs, of course, but salts and acids and whatever we have in our blood and bodies.

yep, there is a balance with drinking water, as with everything. But while detoxing, it pays to drink water generously.

4:05 am

lynxxx

None of the family should be eating the 'baking' I am afraid

4:05 am

Christine

Becca Lorum, what a precious baby. Name and age, please, if you don't mind sharing.

4:05 am

FMitch

lynxxx could become the offical PB baker.

4:06 am

Becca Lorum

He is called Solomon, he's 2 now. And sleeping, which is why I'm Babbling :o)

4:06 am

sprite

I have to be off. Bye all, have a lovely day and/or night.

4:06 am

Christine

In case you hadn't noticed, he's beautiful.

4:06 am

FMitch

I remember when you were still expecting him :)

4:06 am

lynxxx

He is too cute Becca

4:06 am

Becca Lorum

Bye sprite.

4:06 am

Christine

'bye, Sprite.

4:06 am

FMitch

Bye spritey!!! HAve a great day.

4:06 am

lynxxx

Bye Sprite - have a good day

4:07 am

Becca Lorum

Thank you Christine and lynx.

4:07 am

Becca Lorum

Oops, sorry.

4:07 am

Christine

And thank you, Becca Lorum

4:07 am

Becca Lorum

Will there be baking in the PB?

4:08 am

FMitch

I'm sure you will find some goodies in there.

4:08 am

Becca Lorum

*wanders off happily to find cake*

4:08 am

lynxxx

I'll make you kje s special root beer chocolate cake

4:09 am

lynxxx

(salivating a little)

4:09 am

Becca Lorum

Ooh, sounds yummy.

4:09 am

FMitch

Can't imagine what that tastes like - never tried root beer.

4:10 am

lynxxx

It is - I'll get you the website. Substitute Sarsparilla for root beer if hard too find - and don't bother with the icing

4:10 am

Becca Lorum

I will be making gingerbread men later, always entertaining with Sol helping out :o)

4:10 am

Becca Lorum

I LOVE sarsparilla. Might have to try that recpe.

4:11 am

lynxxx

It is truly yummy - and lasts for quite a while too.

4:11 am

FMitch

sarsparilla automatically reminds me of Anne of Green Gables.

4:12 am

Becca Lorum

Would need to buy bundt tin though.

4:13 am

Sally-catlover

And the word bundt reminds me of My Big Fat Greek Wedding. Morning everyone!

4:13 am

lynxxx

I wouldn't bother, just use a round 'ring' tin - don't know what they are called

4:13 am

Becca Lorum

Hi Sally.

4:13 am

lynxxx

hi Sally

4:14 am

FMitch

Morning Sally :)

4:14 am

Becca Lorum

Don't have a ring tin either.

4:14 am

Sally-catlover

See the talk is as usual on food :-)

4:14 am

FMitch

Wonder how many more literary or film refs we can work in?

4:15 am

dizgrannie

no ring tin...place a glass, about the size of the ring upside down in round cake tin

4:15 am

lynxxx

mmm Buy a bundt tin then, they do make cakes look special. I have even made savoury things in mine so fairly versatile

4:15 am

Becca Lorum

Wow, thanks diz. I would never have thought of that.

4:16 am

lynxxx

clever dizGrannie

4:16 am

FMitch

Good thinking dizg

4:16 am

Becca Lorum

Will use the glass until unds for tins become available. Sometime in the next millennia.

4:16 am

dizgrannie

Becca, make sure you grease and flour the glass...

4:17 am

Becca Lorum

*funds

4:17 am

FMitch

necessity is the mother of invention (as ever).

4:17 am

Sally-catlover

Can we buy sarsparilla in the UK? Agree with FM re the Anne of Green Gables ref.

4:17 am

Clue please for or 6/18

Hello, All...i see the extinct bird is in the drid today.

4:18 am

FMitch

oh good Sally I was beginning to think I was the only one. Yes I think you can get it in big supermarkets.

4:18 am

lynxxx

Hi Zooz and Saph

4:18 am

FMitch

Good morning zooz

4:18 am

saphyre

hi lynxxx

4:18 am

Sally-catlover

I grew up on those books - and Little Women and Jo's Boys. Happy memories.

4:18 am

Becca Lorum

Hello zoooz

4:19 am

dizgrannie

we get sarsparilla here. but don't think its the real stuff.

and What Katy Did. :)

4:19 am

Haz1558

And I'm back again - phone call. I may get 10 minutes uninterrupted babbling but I'm putting no money on it.

4:20 am

Becca Lorum

THis is not the one I was thinking of, but Lancastrian sarsaparilla should be good :o)

4:20 am

Sally-catlover

Oh yes! And What Katy Did Next :-)

4:20 am

FMitch

How are you doing zooz?

Wondered where you had got to Haz.

4:20 am

Haz1558

I loved the Anne of Green Gables books and the Katy books.

4:20 am

zoozzoom

Very well thanks, FM :-)

4:21 am

FMitch

That is great zooz (())

4:21 am

lynxxx

I've been buying a double Sasparilla in the Supermarket down here Dizgrannie...ingredients are 'kosher'

4:21 am

Becca Lorum

Hello Haz.

4:21 am

Sally-catlover

I stayed at my cousin's a little while ago and slept in a room where she had all those old books, and the Dimsie books. I was awake till 2 am reading them!

4:22 am

Haz1558

Hello, Becca - and do I see saphyre here as well?

4:22 am

saphyre

hi Haz how are you

4:22 am

dizgrannie

thanx Lynxxx, will look out for that

4:22 am

Haz1558

I'm very well, thanks. It's been a long time, or do you usually chat later in the day?

4:23 am

FMitch

Hello saphyre, missed your entry to the log.

4:23 am

saphyre

No don't have much time - I get in a few words but haven't chatted much or finished a grid in forever

4:23 am

saphyre

Hi FM

4:24 am

Haz1558

Then it's especially nice to see you today.

4:24 am

FMitch

Sally - Dimsie books don't ring a bell with me?

4:24 am

saphyre

thank you :)

4:25 am

Haz1558

No, I haven't heard of Dimsie books either.

4:25 am

Sally-catlover

4:25 am

Becca Lorum

Am I the only one finding it really cold today?

4:25 am

Sally-catlover

Typical girl at boarding school books. Since I didn't go to a boarding school, I loved them and longed to do so of course.

4:26 am

FMitch

As I have just shed 2 layers of clothing I would say yes it is just you Becca

4:26 am

Becca Lorum

I don't know Dimsie, but Ialways loved boarding school books to.

4:26 am

FMitch

thanks Sally, will have a look at that later.

4:27 am

Haz1558

I progressed from St Clares to Mallory Towers to the Chalet School.

4:27 am

Becca Lorum

I'm sure the reality would have been very different.

4:27 am

Sally-catlover

Yes Becca, feasts in the dorm etc - see, I've neatly turned the discussion back into food.

4:27 am

FMitch

Mallory Towers!! now that is a blast from the past :)

4:27 am

Sally-catlover

Read all those as well Haz. I was an avid reader even as a child.

4:27 am

Becca Lorum

FM, I am wrapping shawls round myself. Send me some heat. Where are you? I'm coming to your house to get warm!

4:28 am

Sally-catlover

My cousin's books are probably collectors' items now. Perhaps I'll innocently ask her if she still wants them :-)

4:28 am

Haz1558

I was always a bit annoyed when my mother put me outside instead of letting me stay inside to read.

4:28 am

Becca Lorum

I always wanted a midnight feast in a dorm.

4:28 am

Sally-catlover

lol Haz. Wasn't snowing at the time was it?

4:28 am

FMitch

W. Sussex Becca and it about 65 here.

4:29 am

Becca Lorum

What's 65 in F?

4:29 am

Haz1558

No, it was usually sunny and she had this strange notion that I'd be better playing and running about.

4:29 am

Becca Lorum

I mean in C.

4:29 am

lynxxx

Books ! Some-one here a while ago recommended "A Leap Of Faith' by Quuen Noor. I have just finished reading it and it was terrific - great insight into all the troubles in the Middle East - really worth while reading

4:29 am

Sally-catlover

18.3 C

4:29 am

FMitch

ummm 15 or higher? not sure.

4:30 am

Christine

Lynxxx - I reasd that, and recommended it to all my friends.

4:30 am

Becca Lorum

Very precise answer, Sally. Thank you.

4:30 am

FMitch

BRB phone.

4:30 am

Becca Lorum

Maybe I'm cold because I'm tired a just a teensy bit hungover.

4:31 am

lynxxx

Oh was you Christine - thankyou so much

4:31 am

Becca Lorum

Will look up that book.

4:31 am

Sally-catlover

:-) Have a unit calculator on my iPhone. You might like to know that that is also 291.48 Kelvin. Bound to be useful some time.

4:32 am

lynxxx

BBL show I want to see is on

4:32 am

Becca Lorum

Yes, I can see that would come in handy, lol.

4:32 am

Becca Lorum

Bye lynx

4:32 am

saphyre

bye lynx

4:34 am

Haz1558

(Whisper it softly, but this grid is starting to be less nasty than I thought)

4:34 am

Becca Lorum

I still have too many blank tiles for my liking Haz.

4:34 am

saphyre

I am sorely out of practice so only half way through

4:35 am

Haz1558

I'm still not crowning it my favourite grid of all time, but it's better than I thought at first.

4:36 am

Atalante

morning all! I see the French are revolting again

4:36 am

Becca Lorum

And not halfway yet either.

4:36 am

saphyre

Hi Ata

4:36 am

Becca Lorum

Hello Ata.

4:36 am

zoozzoom

Hello, Ata :-)

4:36 am

Sally-catlover

Not half way yet for me, still 100 to find.

4:37 am

Haz1558

They are! Good morning, Ata.

4:37 am

Sally-catlover

Hi Ata.

4:37 am

Becca Lorum

Revolution revolt, or disgusting revolt?

4:37 am

Atalante

both, indubitably

4:38 am

Becca Lorum

lol

4:39 am

FMitch

Morning Ata!

4:39 am

Haz1558

Not only are they revolting but they insist on having their words in our grid.

4:40 am

Christine

Lynnxxx, not sure if I recommended it here, but I'm glad you liked it. This is a great placer to learn of new books.

4:40 am

Sally-catlover

But then so do the Americans have their words in our grid, Haz (evil grin).

4:40 am

Atalante

are they revolting too?

4:41 am

Haz1558

Rotten foreigners.

4:42 am

Haz1558

I think the Americans stopped revolting a while back, the French have just kept going.

4:42 am

Atalante

any news from the insurance ppl?

4:43 am

Christine

No, no, no, Americans are not foreigners. I remember when I lived in the UK, the American films were never classed as foreign.

4:43 am

Haz1558

We're trying a different angle. We're sending them the paid invoice and saying 'please pay us'. Exposure of heartlessness will come later if they don't cough up.

4:43 am

Sally-catlover

lol Christine, well we have to put sub-titles on when we watch most of them!

4:43 am

Christine

Love the expression 'rotten foreigners'.

4:44 am

Atalante

clever

4:44 am

Haz1558

Are foreigners only people who speak a different language?

4:44 am

FMitch

Ata love yr sunrise pic in flickr

4:44 am

Becca Lorum

The phrase 'blood from a stone' springs to mind, Haz.

4:44 am

Sally-catlover

No (serious hat on for a moment), I think they are people who come from a different country.

4:45 am

Atalante

ty! it was a beautiful sunrise

4:45 am

FMitch

Wasn't the original phrase Jonny Rotten Foreigner?

4:45 am

Becca Lorum

We are also in the process of trying to extract money from a warranty. Gah.

4:45 am

Sally-catlover

Think so FM. Mostly said about the French I think.

4:45 am

FMitch

you should check the date you posted it at tho unless you have invented time travel :)

4:46 am

Sally-catlover

Too much watching of Dr Who.

4:46 am

Haz1558

This insurance thing involves Riding for the Disabled trying to recoup money for damage caused by a crane. The insurance company claims that we have to prove negligence on their part and they're dragging their heels.

4:47 am

FMitch

lol

4:47 am

Haz1558

The crane is not ruby's.

4:47 am

Sally-catlover

Haz, since it involves a charity, and one which has a lot of good feeling about it, have you thought of writing a grumpy letter to the paper?

4:47 am

FMitch

phantoms today: Frodo and Mordor

4:47 am

Haz1558

Her bird of doom is a heron, this crane was the mechanical kind.

4:47 am

Becca Lorum

Urgh, sounds arduous, Haz. Good luck.

4:48 am

Christine

The first time I took my daughter to London, my Father asked why it took so long to go thro' customs - I explained Vanessa's US passport meant she had to go thro' "foreigners' door. "That's rot, she's not foreign, she's my granddaughter!!" gotta love a grandpa.

4:48 am

Becca Lorum

Who is Ruby?

4:48 am

Sally-catlover

Why should the crane be ruby's? What have I missed? She hasn't had a crane as well as dangerous snakes has she?

4:48 am

Atalante

she had a heron

4:48 am

Haz1558

At the minute, Sally, we're still hoping that the insurance company ( for the crane people) will pay up. If they don't, then a publicity campaign might well be used.

4:49 am

FMitch

ruby is a babbler, actually she hasn't been on yet today, most unusual.

4:49 am

Haz1558

I got mixed up with Ruby's heron and the crane. My mind is scrambled.

4:49 am

Christine

"My Dame hath a lame, tame crane"

4:49 am

FMitch

what a shame ;)

4:50 am

Atalante

theres nothing wrong with this grid, who was complaining?

4:50 am

Sally-catlover

She was deeply involved in dog lawyers, last time I head. The lawyers were for them, against the owners of the dog, it wasn't that the dog had picked up the phone and hired a lawyer, as far as I understand.

4:50 am

Christine

Phrase springs to mind each time I enter the word hath --- or see a reference to a crane.

4:50 am

Sally-catlover

head --> heard

4:50 am

Haz1558

I don't know, Sally, some dogs are up to all sorts of tricks.

4:51 am

Haz1558

I complained about the grid a tiny bit earlier and so did lynxxx. But I retracted.

4:51 am

Sally-catlover

They get up to things when we aren't looking.

4:51 am

Becca Lorum

I think I'm lost in this conversation. Someone has a crane, a heron and a talking, lawyer-employing dog?

4:51 am

Atalante

ohhh. But I'll blame FM

4:51 am

FMitch

ROFL Becca.

4:51 am

Becca Lorum

And a snake too?

4:51 am

Sally-catlover

Sounds about right Becca.

4:51 am

Haz1558

Yes. And you thought you had problems with a hangover.

4:52 am

Sally-catlover

lol Haz.

4:52 am

Haz1558

You need to stay around babble more, Becca, then you'd be up to date with everything.

4:53 am

Becca Lorum

I know, but this crazy child of mine ust complains if I tie him to the chair so I can babble. What can I do?

4:53 am

Christine

It

4:53 am

Haz1558

Duct tape.

4:54 am

Becca Lorum

lol!

4:54 am

Christine

as well I live aline, because 'they' would wonder why I'm sitting here, giggling.

4:54 am

Haz1558

That'll stop the complaining.

4:54 am

Haz1558

Honestly, these new mothers. Don't they know anything?

4:54 am

FMitch

I know what you mean Christine

4:54 am

Christine

Haz, you must've been a wonderful Mother to your young'uns.

4:55 am

FMitch

PAck him off to nursery school or something

4:55 am

Haz1558

Oh I was. Thin gruel and plenty of discipline.

4:55 am

Becca Lorum

Speaking of child, he is awake now :o( Will have to go and entertain him or feed him or something.

4:55 am

Sally-catlover

And leaving them out in the snow when they wanted to read?

4:56 am

Haz1558

Have you not got him doing his chores yet? He's old enough to do some dusting, surely?

4:56 am

FMitch

well it was lovely to see you again Becca.

4:56 am

Sally-catlover

It gets better, Becca. Usually at about the time they leave home.

4:56 am

Becca Lorum

And I' still not halfway through the grid.

4:56 am

Haz1558

Feeding? Entertaining? What sort of baby books have you been reading?

4:56 am

saphyre

lol

4:56 am

Haz1558

Get him doing something useful.

4:57 am

Atalante

to be fair, Haz, even yours got gruel

4:57 am

Becca Lorum

LoL, Haz. I gave away all the books when I realised how crap the 'advice' was.

4:57 am

Sally-catlover

I am told that my recent two-year old visitor woke at 3am and said, "where are the chickens?" !!

4:57 am

Haz1558

Goodness, I don't know what age Vicuna started her twins on abseiling to do the windowns for her, but they're experts now.

4:57 am

Haz1558

They got thin gruel, and not on demand either.

4:57 am

Atalante

but hers are Twins of Glory

4:57 am

Haz1558

*windows

4:58 am

Sally-catlover

And not when there was a Y in the day of the week, eh Haz?

4:58 am

Becca Lorum

He does do the vacuuming.

4:58 am

Haz1558

They are Twins of Glory, this is true, but Becca's boy can be a Singleton of Glory if she starts soon.

4:58 am

Becca Lorum

But it's a robot vacuum, so he just has to press the button.

4:58 am

Atalante

she'd better get working on him ...

4:59 am

FMitch

Time for me to go :( Back later. Happy babbling all.

4:59 am

Sally-catlover

Well it's a start Becca.

4:59 am

Haz1558

That's no use! He needs to start on the rudiments of cleaning with his own little dustpan and brush.

4:59 am

saphyre

bye FM

4:59 am

Haz1558

Bye, FM!

4:59 am

Becca Lorum

I have a friend who has 8 children. They are the Family of Glory, to be sure.

4:59 am

Atalante

bye FM!

4:59 am

Sally-catlover

Bye FM.

4:59 am

Becca Lorum

Bye FM.

4:59 am

Sally-catlover

8 children? Faints.

4:59 am

Atalante

you could just stick duct tape on him the wrong way round and roll him around the floor to pick up dust

5:00 am

saphyre

lol

5:00 am

Haz1558

8 children = jolly useful workforce.

5:00 am

Becca Lorum

lol Ata.

5:00 am

Sally-catlover

Just remember, the dust will still be there tomorrow, so why waste time today removing it?

5:00 am

Becca Lorum

Yes, ahe says its still hard work though, because she has to manage them all!

5:00 am

Haz1558

That's a masterstroke, Ata. It's Dragon's Den material for sure.

5:01 am

Atalante

did you laugh when Melissa was voted off?

5:01 am

Christine

Dust is a protective covering for our furniture, and dust bunnies are for apartment dwellers, who aren't allowed pets.

5:01 am

Haz1558

Husband and I both punched the air in triumph.

5:01 am

Atalante

she was something else

5:02 am

Sally-catlover

lol Christine.

5:02 am

Haz1558

She looked like somebody else with Dara O'Briain!

5:02 am

Becca Lorum

lol Christine. I like your thinking.

5:02 am

saphyre

good one Christine

5:02 am

Atalante

I must watch that - shows how edited the main prog is!

5:03 am

Christine

Who is this poor Melissa?

5:03 am

Haz1558

Poor Melissa nothing. A contestant on 'The Apprentice' and a pain in the neck.

5:03 am

Atalante

someone delusional on the apprentice

5:04 am

Haz1558

Ata, what it didn't show on the programme was her reaction in the boardroom - accused the other two of being horrible people who ganged up on her. Do watch it, Dara O'Briain was in brilliant form.

5:05 am

Haz1558

Someone described her as an albino Gok Wan. She's now ditched the glasses, grown her hair into a bob and dyed it black. Unrecognisable.

5:05 am

Christine

Is that Donald Trump's show?

5:05 am

Sally-catlover

If it wasn't on the programme, how did you see it Haz?

5:06 am

Haz1558

It was on the after programme 'You've been fired' which looks at parts which weren't shown before.

5:06 am

Sally-catlover

oh, I must see if I can find that on iPlayer.

5:06 am

Haz1558

It's the British version, Christine with Alan Sugar taking the Trump role but with normal hair.

5:06 am

Christine

How is it UK manages to send us great shows, and we send you Donald Trump?

5:06 am

Atalante

bet she looked a lot better

5:07 am

Haz1558

She did, and actually came over a lot better having lost her delusions about being brilliant at pitching.

5:07 am

Haz1558

I don't know, Christine. We get the American version as well and I spend most of the time wondering HOW that hair stays there.

5:08 am

Atalante

oh, so she's realised she's not the best pitcher ever?

5:08 am

Haz1558

Yes, but it's taken a while.

5:09 am

Atalante

I dont think there's been anyone quite so delusional before

5:09 am

Christine

There are so many comics and comedians taking the mickey, you'd think he'd be embarrassed, but no. I think men who lead with their pelvis, like our governor and Trump, are beyond embarrassing.

5:10 am

Atalante

trump leads with his toupee

5:10 am

Haz1558

You mean you're doubting her professionality? She admitted that she made words up.

5:10 am

Haz1558

She didn't have comfortability conversating with some of the other contestants.

5:11 am

Atalante

oh oh what did she say in the taxi? it was hilarious

5:11 am

Haz1558

Something about Karma and that they'd be universally retributed.

5:11 am

Sally-catlover

must go, hair appointment. Be back later.

5:11 am

Atalante

retributed! yes!!

5:12 am

Haz1558

She didn't like the thought of manoeuvrement. Nor do I...

5:12 am

Haz1558

Bye, Sally and do watch the episode if you can.

5:14 am

Atalante

I'll ertainly watch the after one on iplayer later

5:14 am

Haz1558

You'll enjoy it.

5:14 am

Atalante

decided that Liz will do well

5:15 am

saphyre

have a good day everyone, be back again soon

5:15 am

Haz1558

Yes and I like Christopher as well, the ex-Marine. I don't see Stewart lasting.

5:15 am

Haz1558

Bye, saphyre, lovely to see you again.

5:15 am

Atalante

nooooo. and what actuall did that shower do? I never fgured that out

5:16 am

Haz1558

I missed that as well. I think they heard 'eco' and thought it was for them.

5:17 am

Atalante

yes!

5:17 am

Atalante

it didn't work, whatever it was

5:17 am

Haz1558

I think 'eco' is like 'organic', you hear the word and you think you're helping to save the planet.

Trifioso

hello friends! wow, weird grid so far - have nbs and nbt in about a minute....guessing the rest of the grid will be an uphill climb to compensate

5:21 am

Atalante

yes ..... apparently it had a more energy efficient shower head, but no-one seems to know how it works

5:21 am

Trifioso

disappointed in enable yet again - "mordor" not accepted :(

5:21 am

Haz1558

Hello, Trif. I've wavered in my opinions about the grid, started off not liking it, then warming to it, now rethinking again.

5:22 am

Atalante

oh, here we go: http://tinyurl.com/36bum5o

5:22 am

Trifioso

so, you guys have a version of donald trump running around, eh?

5:23 am

Haz1558

We do. Lord Alan Sugar does the British version.

5:23 am

Trifioso

hmmm. I guess that might balance out you all afflicting us with S club seven.

5:23 am

Atalante

and Melissa called him Sir Alan

5:24 am

Atalante

ooo! just found the 3rd G. what a good babble word, in the grid for once rather than in clues

5:24 am

Haz1558

I know - it's rather fitting.

5:24 am

zoozzoom

And fireworks for me.

5:25 am

Haz1558

S Club Seven died out years ago, don't tell me they're still on the go over there?

5:25 am

Haz1558

Well done, zooz!

5:25 am

Trifioso

huzzah for zooz!!!

5:26 am

Trifioso

I know, Haz, right? I suppose we did dump your tea in the harbor and all, but geez - no need to sic THEM on us! We took David Beckham off your hands and all....

5:26 am

Atalante

yay zooz!

5:26 am

Atalante

but we all love our version of donald trump

5:27 am

Haz1558

I know it's all edited and you're being manipulated to think about individuals in a certain way, but it's still fascinating viewing.

5:28 am

Atalante

absolutely! best prog of the week

5:28 am

Trifioso

do the contestants have to do different business challenges during the week?

5:29 am

Haz1558

Yes, it's very like the US Apprentice except that the sidekicks are more sarcastic.

5:29 am

Atalante

what do you think they all do in their very nice house for the rest of the week after the 2 days of tasks?

5:29 am

Atalante

yes, trif, same format

5:30 am

Trifioso

thank you.

5:42 am

Haz1558

5:48 am

FMitch

5:48 am

Haz1558

5:52 am

herinfernallady

5:52 am

Haz1558

And what will you treat yourself to for late lunch? That sounds good.

5:52 am

FMitch

5:53 am

FMitch

Umm not sure but am going to make a beef casserole for the freezer.

5:53 am

Christine

5:54 am

Doesn't it seem like there are always a few of them in the grid? We had good fun with sperm and herpes yesterday.

7:20 am

7:21 am

rubyfoo

I never saw either one yesterday, duh. Did not have such a great day

7:22 am

carleekat

i found those right away yesterday...i always miss male anatomies...and "bottoms"

robwhy

there are 2 to 6-21 words

7:28 am

carleekat

well..yes... they do that... police cannot remit reports to anyone....they deal with criminals....so they pplace a lean on the report once is handed to the lawyer...if u do not pay the lawyer....the lawyer pays for the report....it comes out of your fees ( at least how it works here)

7:28 am

rubyfoo

I only have one, rob

Morning all. Carlee, I presume you are referring to "God Bless the USA" song by Lee Greenwood? I interviewed him once -- nice guy, but I agree, I'm tired of that song. It plays endlessly around July 4th.

yeap..that the one...i like the words... his voice....bugs me... just a personal thing...and i am tired of it...

11:30 am

ch1212

He came from a jazz family, and plays 10 instruments. He tried to break into the jazz world, but then a song he wrote went "country" and he was pegged as a country artist, so he went with it.

11:31 am

ch1212

And that's all the country-western trivia for today :)

1:05 pm

1:24 pm

rubyfoo

hello everybody

1:25 pm

jacq

bckish, waiting for tea to brew

1:25 pm

Jellen

Hi, ruby!

1:25 pm

jacq

heya ruby

1:28 pm

rubyfoo

I made some rice pudding fore you jacq

1:28 pm

rubyfoo

1:28 pm

jacq

aww ty ruby

1:28 pm

rubyfoo

this is a strange grid with many french words, in my honor, I hope

1:29 pm

jacq

i don't know that much french so am stumped

1:29 pm

jacq

lol

1:29 pm

MollyL

Perhaps that is why Anglo moi is having such a hard time with it.

1:29 pm

rubyfoo

I only have 90 words

1:30 pm

Jellen

As am I, Molly!

1:30 pm

jacq

i have 79 left

1:30 pm

rubyfoo

it has: dr5/12, tr5/10, tr4/5

1:31 pm

Jellen

I have 34 left, but well and truly stuck in the or's...

1:31 pm

rubyfoo

also mo4/4, ou5/12

1:32 pm

rubyfoo

is any of that helpful?

1:32 pm

MollyL

Oui mon ami

1:32 pm

rubyfoo

how do you say hahah in French?

1:33 pm

Jellen

Je ne sais pas!

1:33 pm

rubyfoo

hahahah

1:33 pm

MollyL

Bien Jellen

1:33 pm

jacq

what about the plural of that dr?

1:34 pm

Jellen

You'd think I'd know more after 15 hours of college French!

1:34 pm

rubyfoo

I missed that, jacq ty

1:34 pm

MollyL

You would think I would know more after being married to a French speaking Canadian.

1:34 pm

jacq

and add an a at the beginning of it too

1:34 pm

rubyfoo

it is such a hard language. too many verbs, not enough nouns

1:35 pm

jacq

but just the singular

1:35 pm

rubyfoo

I had it and, of course, tried the plural!

1:35 pm

jacq

it's odd i can read some sentences easily and muddle through more complex ones but speaking it is harder

1:36 pm

rubyfoo

I really didn't speak that well until we moved here. But the harder part was understanding

1:36 pm

rubyfoo

now I can watch movies and TV in French and only miss the jokes

1:37 pm

rubyfoo

I can read it, but not for pleasure the way I can with English

1:37 pm

jacq

i would think reading for pleasure would be harder in a second language

1:38 pm

rubyfoo

my husband can do it but he can't (or won't) speak

1:38 pm

jacq

perhaps translating it prevents the visualisation that comes from a comfort language

1:38 pm

rubyfoo

that's probably it, jacq

1:39 pm

jacq

brb forgot tea lol

1:39 pm

rubyfoo

strong tea!!!

1:40 pm

rubyfoo

must go and help jack bauer save the world now! see you tomorrow

1:44 pm

dan2bit

I love how the "do not call" lists always have an exception for campaign-related calls

1:44 pm

jacq

lol

1:45 pm

jacq

thats because the government can do whatever it wants and the others have to have the same access lol

1:46 pm

Jellen

I haven't had many calls this year...

1:49 pm

jacq

i remember last election was the first time my youngest couild vote and we got fliers in from the BNP, white supremist party (even thought they say they aren't) and she called them and was asking all sorts of questions, it was hilarious because she was tying them in knots

1:50 pm

jacq

and then she asked about the Gurkas (british troops from nepal, fiercely loyal underpaid and undervalued) and that really got them in a flap because their motto was british jobs for british workers

1:51 pm

jacq

i had to leave the room for laughing

jmcnrick

actually the reason the campaigns and nonprofits can call is that the First Amendment is not absolute and the courts have held that commercial speech (selling you something) has less preference than charitable or political speech which have the highest preference along with religious.

crossy....one word....

8:40 pm

Jellen

Hello again...

8:40 pm

Pinikula

how to find out how many letters are in a word? you can use Lickety's List...it will give you the first 2 letters, the length, and the word value

8:40 pm

carleekat

6666

8:41 pm

Pinikula

hi carlee

8:41 pm

Pinikula

hi jellen

8:41 pm

carleekat

back to my movie..back in about an hour

8:41 pm

jhb

Oh thanks pinikula

8:41 pm

Pinikula

Lickety's List is found below the grid under "Friends of Babble"...right click on it to open it in a new window

8:42 pm

Pinikula

copy and paste your word list into the large box at the bottom of Lickety's List and press "bulk add"...that will populate the list with the words you've already found

8:42 pm

Pinikula

(you'll need to do it periodically to keep the list updated)

8:42 pm

Pinikula

...are you a PC or MAC user?

8:44 pm

gapeach

May I please have a clue gor any of the ge's? Thanks

8:44 pm

jhb

Thanks - I am a pc user. Lots to learn in this game eh including new words.

8:44 pm

Pinikula

ge6 = 'ing'

8:44 pm

Pinikula

that's all I have

8:45 pm

gapeach

Thanks, Pini.

8:45 pm

Pinikula

jhb...as a PC user you might want to email Lickety to obtain a copy of Expert...it's the game and list all-in-one (i.e., populates as you find 'em)

8:46 pm

Pinikula

yvw ga

8:47 pm

jhb

8:51 pm

Jellen

Bye, jhb

8:52 pm

Pinikula

oh gosh, not at all, jhb...we use the term here too...I might have added "slang" to the clue tho for us non-southern-hemi's! :)

9:29 pm

torgone

Some sanity would be refreshing ..

9:29 pm

stidmama

okay. so. I have been told that some times I come across as condescending. Not intentionally, but it's a real negative in a teacher.

9:29 pm

Dorens

what??!!!

9:30 pm

Dorens

i know that i've been told that, but don't see it in you at all!

9:30 pm

stidmama

So all month long I have been trying to figure out what it was. and yesterday I actually "saw" myself doing it!

9:30 pm

nrkii

9:30 pm

9:31 pm

torgone

Well done, stid

9:31 pm

stidmama

Okay, so for example, the 3,751st iteration of "look at your rubric before you ask me" usually compels me to say, "If you had looked at your rubric..." and it goes downhill from there.

9:31 pm

Pinikula

hi incomers | bye departers

9:32 pm

stidmama

TODAY I tried, "I am getting a lot of questions about ____. Please look at (name spot) on the rubric and tell me if you still have a question."

9:32 pm

Dorens

yup. sarcasm doesn't go over well. i was in a 4th grade classroom and a kid asked (after the teacher wrote a word up on the smartboard) are we supposed to write that down in our notebooks? She said, no, i'm just writing it up here for fun. I wanted to strangle her

9:33 pm

Pinikula

never too late to do anything!

9:34 pm

lbdawger

hi nrkii

9:34 pm

Jen

in full-time bulgarian language so my mind is fried at the end of theday

9:34 pm

Dorens

middle school kids are sometimes begging for it, the problem is the nice meek kids sitting quietly next to them who are traumatized by it

9:34 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

i would never survive trying NOT to be sarcastic in a classroom in front of 4th graders

9:35 pm

stidmama

bulgarian, gwen? you got posted to BULGARIA??? *faints again*

9:35 pm

cosdem

9:41 pm

torgone

This parrot wouldn't "voom" if I put 4,000 volts through it

9:41 pm

Jen
