12:51 am
VolleymomDee

interesting; ty for looking
12:53 am
VolleymomDee

the last 8... am 7 and plural am 8
12:53 am
jillibus

the extra word is the ad8 (plural of the ad6 but "not in the dictionary")
12:54 am
VolleymomDee

ty ... don't have the ad 6, so looking :)
12:56 am
dizgrannie

am 7/8.....8s done
12:56 am

after looking at def, seems like it is a plural in and of itself; hence, no "plural"

Ruby died during the night or early this morning, peacefully, I think, as she was in her normal sleeping posture. I can't stop crying.
3:18 am

Oh rubyfoo I'm so sorry. I had to put my beloved dog of 14 years down just a few weeks ago. I can totally empathize.
3:19 am

my darling, ruby. my heart goes out to you. what a shame!!! i had hopes she would live for a few more years yet.
3:20 am
Lizlin

Oh, Ruby. So, so sorry. Wish I could hug you. That's so sad, but at least it was peaceful and at least you got to celebrate her birthday. ((Hugs))
3:30 am
grannyrose

thought i might fade away, unless of course i can help with some clueing....quite willing to clue....
3:52 am

If you can have the midas touch..then why enable does not except 'midas' is annoying.
4:57 am
lynxxx

good grief - 12 minutes to find the word instead of midas
5:05 am
zoozzoom

I am finding this grid a little tricky today.
5:06 am
lynxxx

just want to get to 100 and its a struggle - though I am a bit tired
5:07 am
zoozzoom

Yes that is understandable..as it is getting late where you are, Lynxxx.
5:08 am
lynxxx

and a long day. Though I would hate Babble to start in the morning, I wouldn't get anything done
5:09 am
zoozzoom

I need 33 words to find.
5:11 am
lynxxx

I'm impressed
5:13 am
lynxxx

being very distracted by "Would I Lie to You"
5:14 am

Maybe so..but i have only found one 8 so far.
5:14 am
zoozzoom

I love that show..very funny.
5:14 am
lynxxx

there's 8's?!
5:15 am
lynxxx

reminds me of old radio show My Word
5:17 am
zoozzoom

Is it the version from the UK or is it your own version of 'Would i lie to you'?
5:18 am
lynxxx

the UK one - we have lots of UK shows on our ABC (like the BBC), also have UKTV on cable
5:19 am
zoozzoom

Ahh i see...Rob Brydon just cracks me up all the time..lol
5:20 am

word #100 was yo5.18 no def of course. See you later Zooz, have a great day

Take care, Lynxxx..see you again soon :-)

In fact thats the only 'Y' i do not have..damn should of asked for a clue.

Hi zooz :)

Well done, Liz.
5:32 am

finding this grid difficult :(
5:32 am
Lizlin

Listed at just over half way but haven't resorted to morewords yet!
5:32 am
MollyL

Yo5 of our Chayim, new Jewish soap opera from NBC.
: D
5:33 am
Lizlin

LOL!!!!
5:33 am
zoozzoom

Me too..have drawn a blank on some of the letters..will have to resort to the list soon i feel.
5:33 am
MollyL

Can you imagine the drama Liz? I think it would be a hit.
5:34 am
Lizlin

I think it'd be hysterical - Oy vey!!!
5:37 am
Lizlin

Did you ever see the UK show "Grandma's House" Molly? I reckon that'd be close to Yo5 of our Chayim!!!
5:38 am
MollyL

No but we had a drama here years ago called "Brooklyn Bridge" about a Jewish family in the 50's which was actually quite good.
5:39 am
Lizlin

Don't know that one but if you come across Grandma's House, give it a try! Apart from the fact that I taught the lead actor, I just "know" so many of the characters.
5:40 am
MollyL

That must have been fun to watch someone you taught on TV.
5:42 am
Lizlin

It was fun - He also hosted a music show called "Never Mind the Buzzcocks" for a while! The funniest was watching an excerpt of video on Grandma's House, from when he was about 12, just after I taught him.
5:43 am
Lizlin

You do have to be pretty broad minded to enjoy Grandma's House!
5:43 am
zoozzoom

Grandmas house was excellent..i remember when he offended a guest on never mind the buzzcocks and the guy walked off..lol
5:45 am
zoozzoom

He was a singer who went out with someone called, Chantelle i think..from big brother.
5:45 am
Lizlin

Yes I remember that too zooz! Glad you enjoyed the show - wondered how it'd go down outside the Jewish community! It's very very very loosely based on truth but the characters are very real!
5:46 am
Lizlin

Also remember when Amy Winehouse was on Buzzcocks with Simon - that was a good show!
5:47 am
Lizlin

Wasn't Simon insulting Chantelle - something about her autobiography?
5:47 am
zoozzoom

I love his laid back approach when acting..also his dry sense of humour.
5:47 am
Lizlin

He was like that when I taught him - his English stories were great!
5:48 am
zoozzoom

Yes i am sure that is what it was...but the guy just could not take it...i mean geez..he must of seen the show before to know you are at some point going to be ribbed...made great TV though..hahaha
5:49 am
zoozzoom

Sorry for the time delay when typing.
5:50 am
Lizlin

soooo agree!!!! They started showing some of buzzcocks over here - but later episodes, when there were lots of different hosts. Actually, though I liked Simon hosting, think Mark Lamarr was better - or maybe I just knew the music better!
5:51 am
zoozzoom

Did Simon present a music tv show ages ago..but lied about his age so he could get the job?
5:51 am
Lizlin

Maybe - I think he presented some kid's shows! Don't really know.
5:53 am
zoozzoom

Mark Lamarr was funny...and he also has a great wealth of knollege on music..as well as being funny.but i did find sometimes i just did not get him..but hey ho.
5:54 am
Lizlin

Did they do a 3rd series of Grandma's House in the UK? We've had 2 here.
5:55 am
zoozzoom

Knowledge*
5:57 am
zoozzoom

No only two series, Liz..as far as i am aware..the co writer said it is unlikley to be a third series :-(
5:57 am
Lizlin

:(
5:58 am
zoozzoom

I am impressed that you taught Simon ...shows you must also have a great sense of humour.
5:58 am
Lizlin

LOL!!!
5:59 am
MollyL

Are British tv series always so short? (6-7 episodes). Ours usually run 18-22 episodes.
5:59 am
Lizlin

Also taught his 3 sibs - very different from him!
5:59 am
Lizlin

Yes, quite often I'd say, Molly.
6:00 am
Lizlin

Not the historical dramas but the comedies, yes!
6:00 am
MollyL

I'm always surprised when I read the episode list for Downton Abbey, expecting it to be longer.
6:00 am
zoozzoom

I would say more so today...not like years ago..say like only fools of horses..george & mildred etc
6:00 am
Lizlin

Concise!!!
6:01 am
Lizlin

I counter that with Fawlty Towers!
6:01 am
MollyL

That's true. It leaves less time for rambling story lines.
6:01 am
zoozzoom

I take it you have done a few films, shows, Liz?
6:02 am
Lizlin

Not sure what you mean!
6:04 am
zoozzoom

I do think only fools and horses had run its course though..it started to spoil once they became millionairs
6:05 am
zoozzoom

My spelling is all over the place today.
6:06 am
Lizlin

As long as you can spell the words in the grid!
6:06 am
zoozzoom

lol...now that is a different matter.
6:07 am
zoozzoom

Talking of which.i am going to list with 18 more to find.
6:07 am

I think I'm leaving it for tonight. 53 to go but I'm just not seeing anything, particularly the 6 / 7 / 8 words!

6:12 am

There is an extra word in lickety's list ... an ad 8 ... plural of the ad 6 .. if anyone is interested.
6:14 am

Many thanks, BR.
6:14 am

ty BR - useful to know that :)
6:14 am

oh, btw, if you should want to email me, sandy, my email addy has changed. It is in my profile, the new one.
6:14 am

Ruby had to put a dog down I think .... is grieving
6:15 am
zoozzoom

I take it you heard about, Ruby's dog passing away.
6:15 am
sandyloo

Lucky you, I would love to visit her especiallywhen the Tour is on
6:15 am
sprite

BabbleRabble... did that just happen?
6:15 am
Lizlin

Enjoy your days, everyone - 53 left for tomorrow. :)
6:15 am
sandyloo

She told me about that, she loves her dogs , I know how she feels
6:15 am
zoozzoom

I think it passed away in its sleep.
6:15 am
sprite

it is a lot easier for me, sandy... Australia is quite a bit further away :)
6:16 am
zoozzoom

Take care, Liz.nice talking to you.
6:16 am
sprite

no had not heard. Emailed with her yesterday and both dogs were fine then.
6:16 am

Ruby posted about her dog at 3.16
6:16 am
sprite

ok thanks, will check
6:16 am
Lizlin

You too zooz
6:16 am
sandyloo

Ok sprite I will do that email I mean- I will send you a photo of the wedding the dog was a little while ago
6:17 am
sandyloo

Oh no, I didn't realize it was just today - she must be devestated - it will be her favourite dog
6:17 am
sandyloo

Poor Ruby
6:18 am
sprite

yep, found it. It was Ruby, her favorite dog. Ruby was old for a chow though, so she was fearing this day already.
6:19 am
zoozzoom

Still not ea4 when it comes..even if you are expecting it..bless her.
6:19 am
gran

Clue please for ad 8/50
6:19 am
Lizlin

At least she just celebrated Ruby's birthday in January - some small consolation for her. Good night all (for real this time!)
6:20 am
zoozzoom

There is no AD8..licketty made a mistake.
6:20 am
sprite

no, having to let go of a loved pet is never ea4. Am back now, had to email her.
6:21 am
o-o

lickety has 162 words in his list and lists four 8. the ad 8 is the extra
6:22 am
gran

So the total for today is 161
6:22 am
sprite

116 today, gran, yes
6:22 am
zoozzoom

Correct.
6:22 am
gran

Thanks
6:22 am

lickey uses a more recent version of enable than Dr_God .... which accounts for the occasional variances
6:24 am
zoozzoom

I have had to go to morewords...first time in such a long time.
6:25 am
sandyloo

Sprite, how is your dog?
6:25 am
sprite

seems to be a challenging grid. Am not getting any speed here.
6:26 am
sprite

sandy, he is doing wonderfully. Still playful and silly, and so very sweet and funny.
6:27 am
sprite

I would have expected the english to allow a word like unsad... as in understatement for very happy.
6:29 am
o-o

Un`sad´
a. 1. Unsteady; fickle.
O, stormy people, unsad and ever untrue.
- Chaucer.
6:29 am
sprite

now there. Thanks, BabbleRabble. Good to know I am not the only one who thinks it is a word.
6:29 am
o-o

Unsad is in several dictionaries .... but apparently not in Enable
6:30 am
sprite

Enable is always surprising.
6:30 am
zoozzoom

Maybe it is time for the newer version of enable to be used then.
6:31 am

Hello all. Sprite - orts is of Germanic origin but related to the Dutch oorete (orr = remaining + 'ete' = food).

6:43 am

Hi Jac
6:43 am

sandyloo

7:02 am

7:22 am
MimiCat

Got up a little earlier than I wanted this morning. My Dodger cat just mercilessly bugged me to be fed until I couldn't go back to sleep. Hate when he does that!
7:23 am
sprite

he knew you had a big day and he wanted you to have all the time you need
7:23 am
Rows

that's why you should get an automatic feeder :P
7:23 am
Jillyjill

Good morning all..a few minutes to babble before work!
7:23 am
o-o

se 8 also is involved in the tendon formed in the pisiform. Of course, the pisiform is a small bone on the ulnar side of the carpus in man and many mammals.
7:24 am
sprite

hi Jjill :)
7:24 am
MimiCat

I could do that with the dry food, Rows, but I give them canned wet food once in the morning and once in the evening...that's what he wants.
7:24 am
Jillyjill

Sprite, saw your FB post...when are you going to Austria and whatcha doing there?
7:24 am

nah, don't worry. It is a special message. It is not true.

Bye Jilly and dawg!
7:31 am
Rows

i'm trying to decide if it's the right choice for me to go out at 9:30 at night for a massage, or if i should just stay in
7:31 am
sprite

would work for me, BabbleRabble.
7:31 am
Rows

it's a 5 min walk away and only 58 yuan
7:31 am
sprite

go for the massage, Rows. It will do you good.
7:31 am
MimiCat

Stay put, Rows. How was Hong Kong?
7:31 am
Rows

lol
7:32 am
Rows

Hong Kong was nice... very crowded, but nice and warm, and we had a clear, sunny day our last day there
7:32 am
MimiCat

Great. I'm soooo envious!
7:32 am
Rows

well then take a trip there :)
7:33 am
MimiCat

If only I could. There are so very many places I'd love to see. Finances don't permit.
7:33 am

Chevy Chase did trips
7:33 am

they will in time, Mimi. Keep the dreams alive.
7:33 am
Rows

well, you've got a new job, just work at it for a bit and save, make travel a priority
7:34 am
MimiCat

Those trips I could easily manage, BR!
7:34 am
sprite

I trip a lot. Over my own feet, usually.
7:34 am
Rows

:)
7:34 am
MimiCat

Sounds like a plan, Rows! I especially want to make a trip to The Netherlands........
7:34 am
sprite

Mimi, I sent you the message through email. Don't think you and me are connected on FB yet.
7:34 am
Rows

i mean, unless you have a family to take care of, in which case, you can still do it, it's just more complicated
7:34 am
Rows

you definitely should!
7:35 am
sprite

:) You'd be very welcome here.
7:35 am
MimiCat

I rarely use FB, sprite...not crazy about it. But guess I'll be posting the new business venture there.
7:35 am
MimiCat

I'd really love to do a culinary tour of Italy---start eating at the top and end up at the bottom!!
7:35 am
Rows

i've realised there's not much other than travel that i really want to prioritize my time and money for at this point in my life... i've pretty much never travelled anywhere and later regretted it
7:36 am
Rows

i'm going to Malaysia next week for a weekend getaway :)
7:36 am
MimiCat

It's the one big regret I have in life, Rows. Just wasn't able to manage it. Maybe I can get in a couple of trips one day, though. Wow---Malaysia. I'm so envious I'm positive GREEN.
7:37 am
Rows

you're not dead yet!
7:37 am
Rows

no need to regret
7:38 am
o-o

the trip to the fun spot of southeast asia cured me of the little spirit of adventure I previously had.
7:38 am
MimiCat

Would love to see New Zealand, Tibet, Greece, Paris...the list goes on and on. No, I'm not dead but almost was last year---had a heart attack. Made me realize I'd better get around to many things now.
7:38 am

Different time....wrong place, BR.

smores

{BR} thank you
7:40 am
Rows

gotcha - well, i'm going to Kuala Lumpur, which is not at all a war zone at the moment, and i'll be exploring some pretty sights as well as dancing my ass off
7:40 am
MimiCat

Not exactly a pleasure cruise.
7:40 am
Rows

so i should have an okay time
7:40 am
MimiCat

Busy with the new job, smores. There's no selling to this job---the plan really sells itself. Sold one yesterday.
7:40 am
sprite

nope, especially if it leaves you scarred for life.
7:41 am

The Bachelor goes to Thailand next week----can't wait to see the footage.
7:41 am

that's another one on my list of places to see before i move away from Asia

Is anyone else hooked on that stupid show? I picked all the finalists from the beginning! Wow, I'm good.....
7:42 am
smores

lol...no Mimi watched part of the 1st season...couldn't get into it
7:42 am
MimiCat

Rows, I would love to visit China but I'm a bit intimidated by the thought. Should I be?
7:42 am
Rows

lol, sorry, but i am hooked on So You Think You Can Dance, whenever it's on... just started watching the China version of it
7:42 am
smores

Congrats of the job Mimi :)
7:42 am
MimiCat

TY, smores. Did you get my email?
7:43 am
smores

sorry, I'm really bad at checking emails...promise I will look today
7:44 am
smores

ugh...I am now feeling stuffed and guilty...just had cheesecake for breakfast
7:44 am
Rows

nice
7:44 am
MimiCat

Shame, smores! That's how I am about FB--check a couple of times a month. Cheesecake for breakfast---atta girl!
7:44 am
Rows

i'd have done the same, given the opportunity, lol
7:45 am
Rows

i had brownies for breakfast a few days ago
7:45 am
MimiCat

I found a great breakfast product. Special K frozen breakfast sandwiches. Outstandingly good, easy to make and not many calories.
7:45 am
sprite

forget the guilt, smores. you did it, so enjoy it!
7:45 am
Rows

i generally don't eat breakfast :/
7:45 am

smore, I mistook you for smoove: A science writer working at the American Museum of Natural History.
7:46 am

lol...I made one last night and as you know they are sooo much better the next day.
7:46 am
MimiCat

Going to have one in a few minutes. Speaking of which, gotta get breakfast and then down to work. Loving this job.
7:47 am
MimiCat

I only do breakfast if it's easy. Not up for a challenge in the morning. Would rather sleep than eat most of the time but my Dodger won't allow it!
7:47 am
smores

Ahh...I understand nw BR...don't think I've "met" smoove
7:47 am
Rows

yeah, that's the case for me too - having to be at work at 8 isn't too conducive to eating breakfast, unless it's something i can grab on my way out and then eat at my desk when i get to work
7:47 am
smores

gotta eat at least a little something Rows
7:48 am
Rows

usually i don't eat until noon
7:48 am
smores

I know it's cliche' but it really is the most important meal
7:48 am
MimiCat

I used to skip breakfast altogether but I've found it is beneficial to my functioning to have something, especially protein, for breakfast.
7:49 am
Rows

yeah... i just need to find more easy options for things i can just grab in the morning and take with me
7:49 am
smores

Definatly
7:49 am
smores

Do you like yogurt Rows?
7:49 am
Rows

i used to have yogurt for breakfast, but in the winter it doesn't seem appealing to eat for some reason, maybe cos it's cold?
7:50 am
o-o

I often have pizza and ice cream for breakfast
7:50 am
smores

:) love it BR
7:50 am
MimiCat

I'll think up some easy things you can make up and take with you, Rows. Give me a couple of days.
7:50 am
Rows

lol i'll probably have pizza tomorrow... it's what i got for dinner tonight and i only ate two slices
7:50 am

cold pizza? I love that.
7:51 am

7:51 am
Rows

ok mimi :)
7:51 am

Yay---it's raining here!! Love that....it's going to be a good day for me. We're in a 10-year drought here in Arizona so the rain makes a huge difference. I adore thunderstorms.
7:51 am

7:51 am

I usually have a healthy breakfast, that's why I felt guilty this morning
7:52 am

smores, guilt is a waste of energy and of a lovely breakfast
7:52 am

whiteouts are more interesting than rain
7:53 am
MimiCat

I know, Rows, so many tell me that. But when you've lived in the desert for 30 years you really miss the rain. BTW, Rows, do you have a good selection of frozen food in China?
7:53 am
crosshair

mmmm,breakfast....
7:54 am
Rows

not much, apart from frozen dumplings or wontons, maybe some bad Chinese ice cream...
7:54 am
MimiCat

Speaking of which, BR, do you know how you can tell if someone has a blonde as a secretary? The whiteout on the computer screen.....

sadly
8:03 am

in the case of my wife,with her vision at 20/400,she has no way to gague distance or depth perception so the cane is usefull in determining depth of curbs to the street angle of sidewalks stair risers etc

Dogs Last Will and Testament
Before humans die, they write their last Will & Testament, give their home and all they have, to those they leave behind. If with my paws, I could do the same, this is what I'd ask...

To a poor and lonely stray I'd give:

-My happy home.
-My bowl and cozy bed, soft pillows and all my toys.
-The lap, which I loved so much.
-The hand that stroked my fur and the sweet voice which spoke my name.

I'd Will to the sad, scared shelter dog, the place I had in my
human's loving heart, of which there seemed no bounds.

So, when I die, please do not say, "I will never have a
pet again, for the loss and pain is more than I can stand."

Instead, go find an unloved dog, one whose life has
held no joy or hope and give MY place to HIM.

This is the only thing I can give...
The love I left behind.

they didn't cut modern pentathlon, which is expensive to do and unpopular (equestrian, shooting, etc) such that most people have never heard of it, because one of the committee members is a booster for that.
