what are you folks doing ? Is there a beginning format... e.g.
12:42 am
jillibus
I have 100
12:43 am
dianedecoder
"already called."... it seems like a sprint at the beginning; does time enter into scoring in babble ?
12:43 am
Babs1
still looking for the 3 that have the same ending...hmm
12:44 am
VolleymomDee
du 7 x 2
12:44 am
Pinikula
di, the flip format is throwing out the initial stats for the biggers words found...no real 'cluing' until after the first hour is traditional
12:44 am
rururocks
no.. it's just fun to help others di
12:44 am
jillibus
no, diane -- there's no rush.
12:44 am
rururocks
<--- Im in a hurry though...lol
12:44 am
dianedecoder
aha.... makes sense then :-))
12:45 am
VolleymomDee
st 7 and st 8
12:45 am
Pinikula
players throwing out initial stats get a warm fuzzy feeling by finding and calling them before others...but it's not really a contest, just a fund thing to do...
12:45 am
jillibus
I don't look for the long words at the beginning (they can grow out of short ones so I think it's a waste of tme) but lits like to do so -- to each his/her own.

good morning, empty chat room!
4:14 am
Sally-catlover
Hallo ruby, I came just as everyone was leaving, so have been plugging away at another large grid!
4:15 am
Haz1558
Good morning, ruby and Sally.
4:15 am
rubyfoo
hello sally, I'm happy to see you!
4:15 am
rubyfoo
hello haz
4:15 am
Sally-catlover
One day to D-Day now for you!
4:16 am
Sally-catlover
And here is Haz, no doubt having walked the dog, polished the silver, prepared a five-course dinner for later, and done three loads of washing and ironing.
4:16 am
rubyfoo
is that d as in dog?
4:16 am
Sally-catlover
Yes ruby.
4:16 am
Haz1558
AND I've just finished my latest novel.
4:17 am
rubyfoo
we are pretty well-prepared, I think. The lawyer sent me her whole "brief"
4:17 am
rubyfoo
amazing haz!
4:17 am
Sally-catlover
lol Haz. Mine is very short. It has three pages, marked the beginning, the middle and the end - as I was taught.
4:17 am
rubyfoo
I am happy to have had breakfast and gotten clothes on....
4:17 am
Sally-catlover
Yup, always a good start to the day ruby.
4:18 am
Haz1558
I'll get this done in ten minutes then head off to give some advice on world peace.
4:18 am
rubyfoo
sounds like a plan, haz
4:18 am
rubyfoo
where do you get the energy?
4:19 am
Haz1558
Efficient time management is the key.
4:19 am
Sally-catlover
Ten minutes? You're slipping. Anyway, I thought that /I/ was the secret Ambassador and you were the axe murderer.
4:20 am
rubyfoo
it's not the time that's the problem, it's the energy!
4:20 am
Haz1558
Oh, in the light of recent revelations, I'd say that FM is much more in the frame for any axe related incidents.
4:20 am
rubyfoo
is she OK?
4:21 am
Sally-catlover
I obviously missed some vital part of the chog.
4:21 am
Sally-catlover
Has she been chopping trees or attacking her neighbours?
4:21 am
Haz1558
We were having a chat one morning when she revealed that her father had taught her how to chop wood for kindling for a fire. It started with a little hand thing, progressing up to a chain saw. You heard it here first.
4:22 am
Haz1558
Since that we've realised that any deforestation is probably due to her going mad with her axes and chain saws.
4:22 am
Sally-catlover
Never trust someone wielding a chain saw is my motto.
4:22 am
rubyfoo
or, at least, stay inside
4:22 am
Sally-catlover
So she's been travelling in South America recently then.
4:23 am
Haz1558
Absolutely, Sally.
4:23 am
Haz1558
Yes, we can put global warming down to FM, all those rain forests...
4:24 am
Haz1558
But don't let her know I told you. I can trust on your discretion.
4:25 am
Sally-catlover
Absolutely. Rushes to phone book to look up FM's number in Billingshurst.
4:26 am
Sally-catlover
Should we warn the neighbours and have the road sealed off?
4:27 am
Haz1558
No, I think she should be okay. She's kept under discreet surveillance at all times.
4:28 am
Sally-catlover
Ah, I had heard there were quite a few helicopters in the area. Will warn my niece (in same village) to be on her guard though.
4:29 am
Haz1558
FM thinks the helicopters are on manoeuvres. Little does she know.
4:29 am
Sally-catlover
You would think the fact they were black and had no registration marks might be a clue.
4:30 am
Haz1558
You'd think that, wouldn't you?
4:30 am
Sally-catlover
World of her own.
4:31 am
Haz1558
She doesn't realise that her cleaner is really working for the authorities and that he's sent in to keep an eye on her.
4:31 am
Haz1558
He makes sure that the weapons are kept locked up. He's swallowed the key just to be sure.
4:32 am
Sally-catlover
Strangely enough, we have those round here (helicopters with no markings). Don't tell anyone, but it is rumoured that the SAS have their HQ round here. Pretty frightening when you see them hovering near you.
4:32 am
Sally-catlover
Presumably the window cleaner is also in on it?
4:32 am
rubyfoo
we get a lot of hovering helicopters here for the errant "sportsmen" who either drown in the lake or get hung up in the cliffs
4:32 am
Haz1558
Yes, he's another one.
4:33 am
rubyfoo
occasionally they land (the helicopters, not the sportsmen) in the field above the house.
4:34 am
Haz1558
I must say they've been very imaginative about hiding the CCTV cameras in the village. She hasn't a clue that she's being monitored. And her bird table is rigged up as well. Very ingenious.
4:34 am
Sally-catlover
You'll have to confuse them ruby by planting white flowers in an H formation.
4:34 am
rubyfoo
good idea
4:34 am
Sally-catlover
lol Haz.
4:35 am
Sally-catlover
Her laptop has been nobbled as well I Imagine.
4:36 am
Haz1558
Poor FM. She doesn't realise that she's being used to train people in espionage techniques.
4:37 am
Sally-catlover
So really you're a plant to draw out information from her on Babble?
4:38 am
Sally-catlover
Don't worry, your secret is safe me with and ruby.
4:38 am
Haz1558
Yes. I told them I was very busy but when your country's security is at stake, you make time.
4:39 am
Haz1558
I know you'll say nothing and she'll never guess a thing.
4:39 am
Sally-catlover
Naturally, you are so noble to do this Haz, in your busy life, in between being the perfect wife.
4:40 am
Haz1558
Like I said, efficient time management is the key. If you can't fit in national security then it's a poor show.
4:40 am
Sally-catlover
I feel humbled by your genius Haz.
4:40 am
Haz1558
Are there men in white coats hanging about outside your house, Sally? There seems to be quite a crowd here.
4:41 am
Sally-catlover
Sorry, finding it difficult to type with this straight jacket on.
4:41 am
Haz1558
Mouth typing not your speciality?
4:42 am
Sally-catlover
Normally yes, but the duct tape is a nuisance.
4:43 am
Haz1558
Ruby is probably reporting us to Interpol.
4:43 am
rubyfoo
in French, of course
4:44 am
Sally-catlover
She may be under surveillance herself. All those helicopters.
4:44 am
rubyfoo
is that the time for tea?
4:44 am
Sally-catlover
close ruby. Add a vowel.
4:44 am
rubyfoo
I wouldn't be surprised
4:44 am
Haz1558
Never a truer word spoken, Sally.
4:45 am
rubyfoo
I had that, I was just monkeying around
4:45 am
Sally-catlover
Happy sigh. Just finished the C words.
4:45 am
rubyfoo
any clues for the 9's? I dond't even have half yet
4:46 am
Sally-catlover
I have one 9 so far. Hang on while I rummage.
4:46 am
Haz1558
as9 - those who go up
4:46 am
rubyfoo
thank you, now I'll try to be good!
4:46 am
Sally-catlover
Yes, that's the one I have.
4:46 am
Sally-catlover
ruby is deep in the sh** at the moment!
4:46 am
rubyfoo
that is very true, Sally
4:47 am
Sally-catlover
And don't forget what goes up also comes down.
4:47 am
rubyfoo
had those, but thank you.
4:48 am
Lilecama
Thank you for those! and hello everyone!
4:48 am
rubyfoo
hello lile

Haz1558
Have you found the two Loch monsters? One is very tidy (ne8) and the other is very sage (wi8).
4:48 am
Sally-catlover
Hi Lillecama.
4:49 am
Lilecama
I didn't have those yet, Haz. Thanks!
4:49 am
Sally-catlover
Oh I had the very sage one (stupid!!** word) but hadn't noticed the tidy one. Naturally you would get that one first. ty
4:49 am
rubyfoo
slinking away to the pb for some coffee and some tranquilizers......
4:49 am
Haz1558
I tried the wi8 in a spirit of adventure and was amazed when it was accepted.
4:49 am
Sally-catlover
ruby! wrong box again.
4:49 am
Haz1558
You're welcome, Lile.
4:50 am
Lilecama
so we see again - it's always worth trying
4:50 am
rubyfoo
I invented a drink called the ne**ie, vodka, water, and a Tuscan pepper (long, light green), hanging over the side of the glass
4:50 am
Sally-catlover
I had noticed some expressions of grief about a word related to the sage word when I came on, so when I did the w words I did the same. Couldn't believe it was accepted.
4:51 am
Sally-catlover
Sounds good ruby. Personally, I would leave out the water and the pepper and just add frozen water.
4:51 am
Haz1558
I know. I don't mind words being invented when there isn't already an equivalent to describe something but when there's a perfectly good word already, why mangle the language?
4:51 am
rubyfoo
I keep the vodka in the freezer
4:52 am
rubyfoo
but the peppers hanging over the side look just like the monster
4:52 am
Sally-catlover
oh I see! Penny drops.
4:53 am
Haz1558
Then there's the monster who just WON'T wear its kilt. nu8.
4:53 am
Lilecama
lol! what a wonderful clue!
4:54 am
Sally-catlover
I have that one. Have also found the du7, when bills have to be paid.
4:55 am
Haz1558
Lile, there was a very funny cartoon series years ago starring the Family Ne**. We had monsters like Ferociousne** who showed various characteristics.
4:55 am
Sally-catlover
Don't remember that Haz. Sounds a bit Asterix-like.
4:56 am
Haz1558
I can't get out of the habit of thinking of Sportine** as being a monster in running gear.
4:56 am
Haz1558
It was when my girls were young and I watched along with them. It was very funny.
4:57 am
Haz1558
Needless to say, all the housework had been done and I'd advised the Prime Minister on policies before I took a break.
4:57 am
Lilecama
I'm sorry I missed it, Haz!. I had a couple of children's books - only two - about ne**ie. One about how he liked porridge cake. The children loved them (as did I)
4:57 am
rubyfoo
that's very funny, haz, it's like Asterix's dog, Idee Fixe
4:58 am
Haz1558
I must see if I can google it to find out the proper name for it.
4:58 am
Sally-catlover
My favourite character (in English) is Getafix, the one with the magic potions.
4:58 am
Lilecama
that would be good! Then we can all catch up on lost childhood time :)
5:00 am
Haz1558
Go to youtube and you'll find the theme song (family ne**)
5:00 am
Sally-catlover
There is a du for which the clue might be a grey coloured monster, but you can also plural it in the most outrageous word ever and get a 9. Again, I tried it as a joke.
5:00 am
rubyfoo
best word for me (sans help from you two geniuses): na7/32
5:01 am
Lilecama
there's a blushing monster too
5:01 am
Sally-catlover
Oh so there is! ty
5:01 am
Haz1558
That du9 looks mad.
5:02 am
Sally-catlover
Yes, I think so too Haz.
5:02 am
Lilecama
I;m still searching for the paying the bills du...
5:03 am
Sally-catlover
du 7/36
5:03 am
Lilecama
just got it, ty
5:03 am
Sally-catlover
You only need one more letter :-)
5:04 am
Haz1558
The du7 - when a pregnant monster is ready to give birth? Probably biologically completely wrong, but who's going to prove it?
5:04 am
Lilecama
now for the 9...
5:04 am
rubyfoo
talk of being a large-animal vet!
5:05 am
Haz1558
He'd need his waders and plastic overalls for sure.
5:06 am
Haz1558
Queen Victoria would have regarded nu8 as being in8/50.
5:06 am
rubyfoo
what's funny about all this is that for Americans, most of this won't make any se***
5:06 am
Sally-catlover
Let's hope it doesn't need attention to its (whoops!) mouth.
5:06 am
rubyfoo
lovely clue, haz, the elegant
5:07 am
Sally-catlover
ty for the in8 Haz.
5:07 am
Haz1558
Thank you, ruby!
5:07 am
Haz1558
You're welcome, Sally.
5:07 am
Lilecama
nice one Haz, thanks!
5:07 am
Haz1558
No problem, Lile.
5:08 am
Lilecama
still hunting the du 9
5:08 am
rubyfoo
yay, finally passed half
5:08 am
Lilecama
ha! ne6 - lots of monsters...
5:08 am
Sally-catlover
Find the du 7/36, which means being grey. Then plural it.
5:09 am
Lilecama
being grey... du... think, look, think... hmmm
5:09 am
rubyfoo
ty, sally
5:09 am
rubyfoo
I think we should have a field trip to the loch
5:10 am
Sally-catlover
Perhaps for once this is a word more used in UK than USA?
5:10 am
rubyfoo
if I had a lot of money, I would have a mechanical ne**ie built for Lake Annecy. I think it would be saplendid here
5:10 am
rubyfoo
splendid*
5:10 am
Haz1558
re9 is the last one - being reborn.
5:10 am
Sally-catlover
The "grey or mouse coloured" word has three letters, but you double the last letter when adding the monster.
5:11 am
Haz1558
It puts re in front of the word you were proud of finding, ruby.
5:11 am
Lilecama
found it. ty sally. I didn't know that word.
5:11 am
rubyfoo
ooh, ty haz, didn't think of that. I guess we should "re" everything
5:12 am
Sally-catlover
I don't think anyone knew it before today Lille!
5:12 am
Haz1558
Your challenge, should you choose to accept it, Sally, is to work that du9 into conversation today.
5:12 am
rubyfoo
thumper is ready for his apero! see you later, ladies
5:12 am
Lilecama
lol! sally
5:12 am

I have taken on a self-imposed task, Lille, of using a Babble word in conversation every day. (A word unique to Babble and not in "my" normal usage, that is)
5:15 am
Lilecama
wow - now there's a Babble devotee
5:15 am
Sally-catlover
Got ruby's na 7 now, the "birth" was a heavy hint :-) And tralala, have added the re in front and now have all the 9s
5:15 am
Lilecama
First you have to find the non-normal word - then you have to find people to talk to - then you have to steer the conversation so you can you the word! impressive
5:16 am
Sally-catlover
You mean you don't constantly chat about etuis Lille?
5:17 am
Sally-catlover
I find it very easy to find a non-normal word Lille. It says something about either my limited vocabulary or Babble's odd one. Take your pick.
5:17 am
Haz1558
Well, this babble devotee is going to take a quick break. It never stops around here. That Obama will be on the phone soon looking for advice. See you later!
5:17 am
Lilecama
not every day sally! I can use 'seen' very often. :)
5:17 am
Sally-catlover
ttfn
5:18 am
Lilecama
bye Haz! save the world!
5:19 am
Lilecama
na, na, na, na, frown, na, na, na deeper frown....
5:20 am
Sally-catlover
Is this a little song, lille?
5:20 am
Lilecama
could be the start of a long one!
5:22 am
Lilecama
does this na have to do with smell somewhere along the line?
5:23 am
Sally-catlover
Well that isn't the meaning, but if you add the smell to the na you are there.
5:24 am
Sally-catlover
It's to do with birth.
5:32 am
Sally-catlover
Did you get it Lille?
5:32 am
Lilecama
sorry bout that - I was just on the phone.
5:33 am
Sally-catlover
OK, I was worried you had been dragged off screaming.
5:34 am
Lilecama
well - nearly. I was saved by the phone. The smell plus na helped. So now I am proud owner of na7 and 9 :)
5:35 am
Sally-catlover
So you have all three 9s now?
5:35 am
Lilecama
ooo yes, indeed I do! Hadn't even noticed. 9's all greyed :)
5:37 am
Lilecama
I must take my leave, Sally. Son is coming home from school sick... must prepare to be nurse...
5:37 am
Sally-catlover
OK, nice to talk to you. Still have 80 to find but may give it a break and come back later.
5:37 am
Sally-catlover
Hope son is OK :-)
5:38 am
Lilecama
thanks for all the help and see you later. I have 176 still to find. Son is low on energy - has been for a while....
5:39 am
Lilecama

Good morning Sprite and anyone else around
5:55 am
sprite
hello lyn :) xxx
How is life today?
5:58 am
lynxxx
Busy, nice now that it is all winding down. How is life treating you?
5:59 am
sprite
body is bad but morale is good. Also a busy day and only partially done. And I think I deserve a nice babble break :)
6:00 am
lynxxx
This one seems pretty straight forward so should be 'nice'. Sorry to hear your body is playing up again, hope it is brief
6:02 am
sprite
I take it philosophically atm. Made some big changes in my life and some very emotional decisions. Guess I shouldn't be surprised the body needs some time to adapt, right? Things will settle soon.
6:03 am
lynxxx
I am sure they will...especially as the decisions were the right ones (I think I know what you are talking about)
6:04 am
lynxxx
Densa is in the grid - always reminds me of Lori
6:04 am
sprite
I think you do :)
Yes they were the right ones.
LOL yes, Densa! haven't seen Lori around lately though.
6:06 am
lynxxx
I have seen her a few times over the last couple of weeks - not nearly enough though
6:06 am
sprite
glad she is still playing. Hope to run into her soon.
6:11 am
sprite
smoothly past the halfway mark, always a good sign.
6:12 am
lynxxx
TY for your list yesterday by the way. Looks like Lickety is there today, though I shouldn't need it
6:13 am
sprite
my pleasure. Actually it was VolleymomDee who made the list initially, but it wasn't complete. Grannyrose did the Ss and I did the Ts and Ws, and then I thought I'd better collect it all.
6:18 am
sprite
so looking forward to my love coming home today! He had to be away for his work for a couple of days. Home is not the same without him for sure.
6:22 am
lynxxx
a spouse, a child, a dog - I think the absence of any 'being' makes a home seem empty or odd. We replace our family's dog/s fairly quickly - not sure that a spouse or child can be replaced so easily!
6:23 am
sprite
not by me anyway, grin. Yes, I think you are right. Once we made a place for a person or animal in our home and life, that place is noticeably empty without them.
6:23 am
bichon
Morning all you folks in Europe and Australia
6:24 am

good day to you, bichon
6:24 am
lynxxx
morning Bichon
6:30 am
bichon
how can there be a comparative of the nu 4/6
6:31 am
lynxxx
I suppose it would be like dark****
6:31 am
sprite
found a new word for me, ec7.
Means the shedding or casting off of an outer coat or integument by snakes, crustaceans, etc.
6:31 am
sprite
well, bichon, if you and I were standing together and you would wear a bikini and I would only wear a slip, I would be nu5 th4 you.
6:32 am
bichon
It's getting darker earlier now, but how could some one be more nu**
6:32 am
EspritdJean
it's as bad as saying "more unique" another one that makes me crazy
6:32 am
lynxxx
sorry, I thought you were talking about the nu8
6:33 am
sprite
but enable wouldn't be ashamed to list 'pregnanter'
6:33 am
lynxxx
hi Espritd
6:33 am
Trifioso
morning all. I think nu5 has to do with color tones, maybe
6:33 am
sprite
oh yes, djean! Very irritating.
6:33 am

hi Trif *hugsss*
6:34 am
lynxxx
morning Trif
6:34 am
Trifioso
hiyas. I am starting to suspect dr. god is actually mavis beacon
6:34 am
sprite
why is th4??
6:34 am
lynxxx
Mavis Beacon?
6:35 am
Trifioso
she is a lady in the states who sells software to teach one how to type, and emphasizes practice, practice, practice
6:35 am
EspritdJean
never heard of mavis
6:35 am
lynxxx
because of the 2 larger grids in a row?
6:37 am
lynxxx
I remember the week of really large grids 400 & 500s - must have been 5 days of them at least
6:37 am
sprite
that is for me, I thought... because big babble grids are the only way I do take long breaks.
6:37 am
Trifioso
hard though - I kept entering the same words over and over yesterday, instead of seeing new ones. bummer
6:38 am
Trifioso
i will never understand how our favorite volcano can also take the plural. there are more than one?
6:39 am
bichon
et 4/4 is a lab burner
6:39 am
sprite
it wouldn't be valid if the only meaning was the volcano
6:39 am
lynxxx
it is not a volano
6:39 am
lynxxx
nor a volcano
6:39 am
Trifioso
oh, seriously? I checked the definition thingie, but I guess I didn't see that. my bad
6:39 am
carleekat
good morning babble friends
6:40 am

morning Carlee
6:40 am
carleekat
how is everyone today?
6:40 am
Trifioso
morning carlee! secondo is back to school today -- anxious to see how it goes, there has been some "mean girl" backlash already. A bunch of girls saying she made it all up for attention. as if!!!!
6:41 am
carleekat
oh good grief....
6:41 am
sprite
hi carlee :)
6:41 am
Trifioso
I know, right? Teenage girls are a barrel of fun....
6:41 am
carleekat
we are having a woman come in to talk to our pathfinders and in the spring guides...about bullying
6:41 am
sprite
vicious bunch, sometimes
6:42 am
carleekat
can primo go in all big and strong and knock some heads around...or at least pretend to be prepared to do so?
6:42 am
Trifioso
oh, excellent! our kids were just shown a program called "Rachels challenge" in school ,and it was SO GOOD!!! Rachel was the first girl killed in the Columbine shootings, and her parents, bless them, put this program together to combat bullying.
6:43 am
Trifioso
OH, carlee, you have no idea how funny that is! Primo is seventeen years old, taller than me by about an inch, and has yet to weigh 120 pounds in his life! he could not knock over an empty easel
6:43 am
carleekat
my son's rep is such that everyone knows if they ever did anything to PO my daughter....they'd get their head's kicked in ( he NEVER started a fight...but b/c of rep on football field..in hockey and rugby.....and..if anyon ever started anything with him..he finisheed it )
6:44 am
carleekat
but he is really a tender heart inside..but NO ONE messes with his baby sister ( at 6'1" 200 lb and not a scrap of fat on him )
6:44 am
lynxxx
perhaps he could go 'on loan' to Trifs
6:45 am
Trifioso
yes, that might work!
6:45 am
Trifioso
"beware my giant canadian!!!" hm.......
6:45 am
carleekat
u wanna borrow him trifs? there pics of him on my fb page..there an album...kids1 and kids 2 one is him..one is her
6:46 am
carleekat
lynxxx...do u have fb?....
6:46 am
Trifioso
I will assume I could tell them apart easily, yes....
6:46 am
lynxxx
send a photo, Secondo can show it around & say he is her Canadian boyfriend!
6:46 am
carleekat
uh...yes...close cropped hair would be my son....the long blond is my daughter
6:47 am
lynxxx
no Carlee - too much hassle for me
6:47 am
carleekat
just save a pic
6:47 am
carleekat
oh dammit lynxxx...
6:48 am
Trifioso
LOL - secondo has a BF, smaller than primo! just took a look carlee - jesus, what does it cost you to feed that boy? He's HUGE!
6:48 am
carleekat
we blame it on the oatmeal...he ate lots and lots of oatmeal
6:48 am
carleekat
he's a grazer....he doesnt eat big meals..and thankfully he loves pbandj
6:49 am
Trifioso
maybe boys in canada are like goldfish? they just grow as big as their tanks, and since you have all that room....
6:49 am
Trifioso
what, by the loaf? LOL
6:49 am
carleekat
just about
6:49 am
Trifioso
anyway, he looks fit and strong and healthy, and he must be a dab ha4 around the house, that's for sure!
6:50 am
carleekat
my grandpa was 6'3 and close to 300 pounds...my sons dad is only 5'9 but obviously took after my family
6:50 am

6:51 am
carleekat

6:52 am
Trifioso
is there really a nu8?
6:56 am
carleekat
no idea...dont have lickety up
6:57 am
Trifioso
carlee, is your mil still around?
6:57 am
carleekat
nope....not for ages...i mean yes...she is around.but i hear nothing from her...she has nothing to do witht he kids...they dont like her
6:57 am
carleekat
pour quoi?
6:58 am
Trifioso
I just got an email saying mine is quite ill now, and probably at the end of her journey....I am unsure how exactly to proceed
6:58 am
carleekat
did u have a good relation with her ever/...and does she remember your kids?
6:58 am
Trifioso
I need to be a support for my children, and I would like to be at any services held, out of respect for the position she held.
6:59 am
Trifioso
we did have a good relationship, as much as was possible - she was a TOUGH one. but oh,she loved the kids! but the idea of all travelling together - ugh
6:59 am
carleekat
and if u had good relations with her durin gyour marriage..then go out of respect for that....
6:59 am
carleekat
why must u all travel together?
7:00 am
Trifioso
we musn't, but I somehow imagine that is how it will all come together. I guess I could sneak over on my own, but that rather leaves the kids without my supprot
7:01 am
carleekat
well... looking from outside in..and being in a sim position as u should this happen
7:01 am
carleekat
all fresh and everything
7:01 am
carleekat
i would let my kids be with dad...travel with dad..etc...
7:02 am
carleekat
and I would travel on my own to each of the particular events
7:02 am
carleekat
and "be there..and available..."
7:02 am
Trifioso
I agree with that. they will be with him,yes of course, but they won't get any support from him, and if I am in the room they just gravitate to me and leave him alone.
7:02 am
Angelsong
hi, all. there is an nu8, trifoso...
7:03 am
carleekat
for my kids...and also it shows u are being respectful.....but also demonstrates u are respectful to ur m in l whilst no longer being a part of the family

gretchen and bunch of the other girls are saying secondo made it all up to get attention. surprising, coming from gretchen, but I suppose she is parroting the mom, who cannot, will not BELIEVE such a thing could happen in her fashionable neighborhood

Just let it all die down for a while, Trif. You know what happened and so does Secondo. You filed the report and what happens, happens.
7:45 am
Trifioso
amy wants to believe that one of the girls was running by and hit secondo by accident with her ring, or something like that. Secondo feels that if someone's hand hit her in the head, she would have felt that. and since when do rings leave fragments?

9:57 am
Haz1558
Good. Are you enjoying another big grid?
9:58 am
hurshy
ah, well, if it is an improvement, that's different, i suppose. one of my sisters went to a very hard married name and i always said if they wanted the same name they should have used our family's name!
9:58 am
hurshy
yes, enjoying the grid.
9:59 am
hurshy
i have been trying to find a medicine that will be helpful with my depressive tendencies and i suppose that will be good when i find it but the trying them out stage is hard. right now i'm between and need to go get the next prescription.
9:59 am
hurshy
besides which i'm applying to other jobs which is stressful and scary.
10:00 am
Haz1558
It seems to be an ongoing problem for you, doesn't it? It's a case of trial and error, I suppose, but going through trials and errors when you're already feeling low isn't easy, I'm sure.
10:01 am
hurshy
yes, the messing with the brain chemistry is a rough phase. you see, i'd been on one drug for a number of years and then finally realized that it wasn't really doing anything, so then i decided to try new ones.
10:01 am
Haz1558
Is it the process of applying that's scary or the fear that you might either be rejected or catapulted into another job that you don't like?
10:01 am
hurshy
process and fear that i might end up in another job that i don't like. i'm ok with rejection, since i'm not applying to anything that seems all that thrilling anyway.
10:02 am

Back again, Babble froze up on me as it is wont to do on big grids.

I wish I could give you the gift of optimism and adventure so that change becomes a positive thing.

I'm not saying that I possess the gift in full abundance myself, I just wish I could pass it on.
10:04 am
FMitch
Are there no openings to jobs hursh that would excite you?
10:05 am
hurshy
there might be, FM, but i would need to start in a new track to do that, and i cannot afford to right now. someday when my husband gets a real job, after he finishes his PhD, then i can try more things.
10:06 am
hurshy
meanwhile i am very impressed with myself for finding all the C's.
10:06 am

I'm impressed as well.

10:08 am

I can't imagine how it was yesterday 403 words and no list. I didn't even have time to start.
10:08 am
hurshy
it was fine, people put lists in their profiles.
10:09 am
Haz1558
It was a good grid and doable with profile lists, though slower.

10:12 am
Haz1558
ec7 - ec plus 24 hours minus the vowel, then a distress signal with a different vowel in the middle.
10:13 am
hurshy
what a fine clue!
10:13 am
Haz1558
Sorry, it's not an easy word to clue. It's a plural for a singular not in the grid. Just to further muddy waters.

10:16 am
Haz1558
an6 - adds another consonant into the leaning an5/10
10:17 am

Name your prize Haz. Cross is paying for it. : P
10:17 am

du6 rhymes with a person who lies out to get tan ? and pl
10:17 am
hurshy
ah, forgot about that word, thanks has
10:17 am
hurshy
no, NOT and pl on the du6.
10:18 am
hurshy
but, change the ending to the loch monster and get a 7 that way, and then pl THAT for a 9.

hurshy
what's the other as7/32 besides the pl of the 6/21?
10:21 am
mixi6
dont have it hurshy
10:21 am
Haz1558
as7 = first three letters as with the going up words, then add a plentiful supply of the letter s.
10:21 am
hurshy
du7 the first - the quality of being ready to return to the library
10:21 am

mixi6
have all the du's now thanks again hurshy. 4 left
10:22 am
Haz1558
You're welcome.
10:22 am
hurshy
du7 the last - superlative to match the du6 comparative. oh oh well i guess you had that.
10:22 am

The loch entity surely does get used a lot today.

It's the flag day in our town for the cancer charity I'm involved with. I was reading the permission the other day and there are all sorts of rules and regulations. You're not allowed to fix a pole to the collecting box in order to reach an upper window or the top deck of a double decker bus!

goodness!
10:48 am

we do not have much of an issue with double deckers here'

Didn't you know that a local firm makes London buses?
10:50 am
Haz1558
Google Wrightbus - they employ over 900 people and make buses for all over the world.
10:50 am
FMitch
Back in 5.
10:50 am
Haz1558
They do test runs with them so it's not unusual to see a bus with all different sorts of livery on them.
10:51 am
Haz1558
Years ago they used to bring the chassis of the bus over from England and would drive them from the ferry, just the driver, a seat and a steering wheel.
10:51 am
crosshair
the upper deck of those are all open air and not enclosed?
10:51 am
Haz1558
They used to wrap up warm for the winter...
10:52 am
Haz1558
No, most upper decks are enclosed, it's only specialised buses for tour operators that are open.
10:52 am
Haz1558
But seriously, Wrightbus have the contract to make the new Routemaster bus for London.

I believe Amendment 8 did not pass, which is a good thing....let me double check.
11:32 am
rubyfoo
no i, bichon
11:32 am
jmcnrick
so it does mean rebirth. . . .
11:32 am
bichon
yup, got it. ty Ha, but don't get the Italian city
11:33 am
Haz1558
The Italian city is Naples, first two letters, then the aroma.
11:33 am
jmcnrick
see my cleverness at 11:31 bichon
11:33 am
redturtlehead
Yes, Aloy Amendment 8 did not pass. thank goodness, can you imagine how big some of those classes would have gotten?
11:33 am
jmcnrick
Naples is a nasty city
11:33 am
bichon
We have no governor yet, may be weeks. The city of Bridgport ran out of ballots so they had to print them up and delay the poll closing for 2 hours
11:34 am
Aloyisius
thank goodness! yes, red.. I thought that was a sneaky ploy, and I'm so relieved it did not pass.. wish Amend. 4 had passed tho
11:34 am
Haz1558
'See Naples and die' used to be a saying.
11:34 am
Atalante
from food poisoning?
11:34 am
redturtlehead
yes me too. I was all for it. Also wish Rock Scott had not won for Governor, he is a snake int he grass.
11:35 am
Haz1558
Fever, I think. Let me check.
11:35 am
jmcnrick
you would die from the filth
11:35 am
jmcnrick
but to be fair it was many years ago i was there so maybe it is a lovely town now
11:35 am
Aloyisius
ah well.. big money against that one.. what do you expect
11:36 am
redturtlehead
yes. It is unfortunate, as he really is implicated strongly in medicare/Medicaid Fraud...
11:36 am
Haz1558
It still has the reputation for heavy traffic and general chaos but somewhere at the back of my mind there's a disease associated with it.
11:36 am

it's deadly enough trying to cross roads there

I don't think I'm understanding nu5/14. How can one be more nu 4/6. Isn't nu 4/6...nu 4/6? I didn't think there were "degrees" of that.
11:39 am
Aloyisius
hi hoot and hi Ata
11:40 am
bichon
You are correct Molly. I get miffed when people use a comparative of unique

11:40 am
Haz1558
Maybe it's to do with shades of pantyhose?
11:40 am

2:54 pm
carleekat
its a dinner thw women at the local mosque put on 2ce a year
2:54 pm
carleekat
once per year the monies raised go to a local charity...and once to an international one
2:54 pm
carleekat
thhis time its for our local hospital....the one last spring we did for haiti...
2:55 pm
FMitch
both v good causes.
2:55 pm
carleekat
i like helping out....most of the churches around here do dinners..but its to raise money for their own coffers....this is for a cause outside of the mosque
2:55 pm
FMitch
and I bet they don't cater for such quantities!
2:56 pm
carleekat
and i like that... anyway..when i was in universtiy my best friends mum was arab...she taught me to "cook" ( meaning ..anyone who does not kow their food does not know how to cook )
2:57 pm
carleekat
then...when i moved here and met a local woman from the mosque ( she wear hijab but she and i get along So well..we immediately felt like we knew eachother a long itme...and started giggling and to this day we do not stop )...found out i "know how to cook"...i was roped in
2:57 pm
FMitch
LOL, how great to find a kindred spirit.
2:58 pm
carleekat
so..i go...the other women there were "who is this person..blonde..blue eyed...etc....but now they all know me... 6 or 7 years later
2:58 pm
carleekat
for a lon gitme i was "carolyninthekitchen"
2:58 pm
carleekat
all slurred together
2:59 pm
FMitch
heh hee
I really have to go, sorry but I've been sat infront of the computer too long today and had only returned to it to shut it down.
2:59 pm
carleekat
now we giggle and say i am a "sister in law"...b/c in islam....u all brothers and sisters in islam.... i am sister in law

if there is a creature called an anteater why isn't there a verb "anteat?"- one wonders idly.
3:44 pm
MollyL
Kap, if the Hawaiian goose is an ne4, why is there no plural for that? Especially since Enable recognizes "deers" (no such plural). Best not to ponder such redundancy.
