There is a multi-headed hy*** ; for one of the hy 6, 7 pairs, put an extra vowel in just before the last vowel, and pluralize in Latin.

If I can figure out how to clue the other 6,7 pair, I'll be back!

For the other two, take the first one and substitute a consonant for the last vowel.

2:39 pm
gapeach
My printer is down and I can't copy any lists that our babblers have posted. Oh well.
2:39 pm
TraderKate
you could try him on fb, but if the list isn't in, then he must be otherwise occupied... though i sunderstand it is a little unusual for him to be awol on week days... i'm sure he's just busy, or no internet??
2:40 pm
Erda
I don't think those two communicate too well. Here's the address: licketySplitAUS@gmail.com
2:54 pm
bichon
I don't think this is all that unusual. It just happened on a day which has a rather large grid
2:56 pm
bichon
I think there were no clues on the "744" day
2:56 pm
MollyL
Nope, there were clues on the 744 day
2:57 pm
bichon
Some other day when there was a 500+ word grid
2:57 pm
MollyL
I agree with Bich though. Lickety taking a day off is no cause for alarm.
2:58 pm
bichon
I remember one day she popped in quite late and said her son had been hogging her computer
2:59 pm
bichon
Mr. P is a woman, Lickety is a man. I know they were once married, are they still?
2:59 pm
MollyL
No and Lickety is doing the list, not Mr P
3:00 pm
bichon
Didn't Mr. P do it sometimes?
3:00 pm
Erda
A while ago, yes
3:02 pm
MollyL
Peach, copy a list and paste it into a word document.
3:02 pm
Yvo
Just a little ote ,yesterday was lickity Birthday ,so he might have had a party and slept in
3:03 pm
MollyL
Good for Lickety. I hope he had a nice birthday.
3:04 pm
bichon
I have now passed half way. That is my clue to quietly make my exit with a fond farewell
3:05 pm
MollyL
I will say that these large grids are a total pain to finish without Lickety's list.
3:06 pm

not worth sulking over burned meatloaf, but you certainly should squawk loudly over the wine! what nerve ;)

3:46 pm

he brought me pinot grigio instead of pinot noir! ru would be appalled!
3:46 pm
TraderKate
this is such a pleasant grid, too bad i don`t have the luxury of time to get the list and compare with what i`ve got... would have been nice to mull it over at my leisure.
what was the wine jmc
3:47 pm
TraderKate
how does one mistake a red and a white just because they have pinot in the name ( big fat question mark)
3:47 pm

because they both have pinot in the name. . haha

4:01 pm
jmcnrick
trader's email is in her profile. . .
4:02 pm
crosshair
well..not exactly,but you can ease your guilt by dialing in on a closed business that already offers it to customer,but you are out of range
4:02 pm
jmcnrick
<----narrow minded
4:03 pm
crosshair
doing it to a personal wi-fi is not nice.it just maxes out some poor person who never used a net passwords data pack
4:03 pm
jmcnrick
oh i use mcdonald's all the time when i am driving and get lost whether i buy something that time or not. . .
4:03 pm
crosshair
like i said,any business that already offers it for free.you just want to boost the signal is all
4:04 pm
jmcnrick
it is also theft to use a personal wi-fi that is not yours. . .
4:04 pm
jmcnrick
well you should email her
4:04 pm
crosshair
it is..so is recording a song off the radio using my old cassette player
4:04 pm
crosshair
but ,like i say.been years since i have had the patience to fiddle with it
4:05 pm
crosshair
it is called a cantenna
4:05 pm
jmcnrick
well i see less of the harm in recording the song than in grabbing the bandwidth especially since you don't know if they have a limit. . .
4:05 pm
crosshair
that is also why i said you target a business that offers it free 24/7 anyways
4:06 pm
jmcnrick
and i don't record songs either. . . only tv shows with my son (or previously my hubby) in them like the news. . .
4:06 pm
crosshair
that is also illegal:))
4:06 pm
jmcnrick
sure i understand using a business wi-fi
4:06 pm
jmcnrick
yep. . .
4:07 pm
crosshair
it is all a matter of degrees
4:07 pm
jmcnrick
but i would go to court over that. . .it is not worth it over the other. . .
4:07 pm
jmcnrick
degrees matter to me. . .
4:08 pm
jmcnrick

4:08 pm
crosshair
you are correct in most of what you say jmc:) but if you lived across from a McDonalds that is open 24/7 and you used a cantenna out your bedroom window,you should feel little guilt
4:09 pm
crosshair
same with doing a book report,.use one book for it and it is plagerism,use 1000 and it is research:))
4:12 pm
crosshair
:(( oh well.here is the link for those who can tap a business that offers it anyways and you are sure that you are not going to burn in hell for eternity or get sued by the muffler shop down the road for 20 million dollars:) http://tinyurl.com/n7fgww as i say however,since i need a good steady strong signal for video streaming these days,i do not bother with it
4:16 pm
crosshair
my sons school was across the road from a sub shop that offers it and all the kids used to huddle in a group in a percise spot on schoolproperty.took me a while but my son told me they were tapping the sub shops signal with the smart phones,since the school signal is censored and heavily restricted.lil buggers:) same thing,just no cantenna

don't forget poodles, that lickety is a day ahead of us in australia
5:40 pm
gremlinn
still the wrong date, Babble's on Central (US) time
5:41 pm
gremlinn
I didn't even realize it had a date on the page at all before, I generally just make sure the first few letters are the same as what I'm expecting
5:42 pm
lilliann
well, as long as i have the clues, i'm not really bothered if the date is right or wrong :)i've never noticed a date either gremlin and i do the same
5:46 pm
cybernan

5:46 pm
gremlinn
I got to my self-imposed 90% before listing... was annoyed that my missing 10% today consisted largely of missed plurals!
5:49 pm
lilliann
i had 250 words without the list and i'm the same gremlin, i've missed alot of plurals and pt.it's easy done with big grids
5:50 pm
gremlinn
Yeah, I start off in a rush and just type in whatever I think of - being disorganized at the start like that can make it easy for things to slip through that you thought you typed.
5:50 pm
MollyL
Kids, it's already the 14th in Australia.
5:51 pm
lilliann
that's what i said molly
5:51 pm
gremlinn
I work in QA, so I'm picky about details. :)
5:51 pm
MollyL
Sorry, I missed that. And if the words match up, what does the date matter?
5:52 pm
lilliann
and lickety is separate from babble.i said that too :)
5:52 pm
gremlinn
Doesn't, for practical purposes
5:53 pm
MollyL
It's probably worth repeating L. A lot of people either don't know that or forget it.
5:53 pm
lilliann
i didn't realize it had a date until poodle said and then i had to go looking for it :)i don't know what the date is half the time anyway
5:54 pm
gremlinn
As long as you know the day of the week, you'll be fine most of the time.
5:54 pm

I never look at the date, just the word count to see if it matches.
5:55 pm
gremlinn
I just take the top row usually - glance at the puzzle and think "better say SKEEC across the top"
6:00 pm
licketySplitAUS
Erda - you were the only one who emailed me ;-) Apologies again - my computer froze yesterday, right around flip time - but I didn't realise.
6:01 pm
MollyL
No worries Lickety, we are ever grateful. : )
6:01 pm
licketySplitAUS
And yes - It's Tuesday here in Australia - that's why the date is wrong on the clues. But don't worry - in 5+ hours, clues will be done again and it'll still say Tuesday.
6:01 pm
lilliann
no need to apologise lickety, we are just very thankful that you put a list up for us.ty
6:02 pm
licketySplitAUS
Well - thank Erda too - as without here email I probably wouldn't have realised.
6:02 pm
Erda
Lickety -- I am amazed at that fact, because I flashed your address in the chog...I was sure many more inmates wrote to you...
6:03 pm
lilliann
we have :)
6:03 pm
MollyL
: D Inmates
6:03 pm
Erda
Well, aren't we?

car.eeyore
Hello, may I please have a clue for the LY 7?
6:18 pm
lilliann
sounds like another word for a cap on a bottle and and opposite of dayand pl for 8
6:19 pm
gremlinn
change the Y to a U and it means someone who's against new technology being used for tasks
6:20 pm
lilliann
apparently it is a high explosive car
6:21 pm
gremlinn
name comes partly from where it was invented, it seems
6:21 pm
gremlinn
(or manufactured)
6:22 pm
car.eeyore
I'm not getting the clues. I think I am too distracted.
6:23 pm
MollyL
ly + double consonant + dying people get the last r****
6:23 pm
lilliann
yes and i know the place gremlin and been to it and through it loads of times
6:23 pm
lilliann

6:23 pm
MollyL
*Gives Car her dose of Ritalin*
6:23 pm
gremlinn
dying people get the last ramen!
6:24 pm
car.eeyore
Thank you!!!!!
6:24 pm
gremlinn
ohhh, "car" was the clue seeker, I thought lilliann meant a "highly explosive car" (as in, top performance)
6:25 pm
MollyL
Your clue was fine L, made sense to me.
6:25 pm
lilliann
lol gremlin
6:25 pm
MimiCat
Hello, lovely people! It's 103 degrees here in Phoenix and I will NOT be going outside!
6:26 pm
gremlinn

6:26 pm
MollyL
I thought she meant exploding car too.
6:26 pm
lilliann
well, i'm glad someone got it but it didn't matter to you as you already had the word molly :)
6:26 pm
gremlinn
I heard some places were forecast to maybe set record highs (Tuesday?)
6:26 pm
lilliann
mmm, that is what i wrote :)
6:27 pm
MimiCat
This isn't a record for us, just miserable. Won't have decent temperatures again until at least September. It's like living in a suburb of HELL.
6:29 pm
lilliann
we'll probably miss out on summer as usual.hi mimi

MimiCat
I'm hoping to move up into the mountains either at the end of this year or beginning of next or to northern Idaho....have HAD it with this climate. No rain, just dust and dirt, and ridiculous politics. Stayed here to be near my kids but never see them anyway so there's no point.
6:32 pm
gremlinn
I don't like temperatures about 72 or so. Glad I don't live in Arizona (and I don't plan to).
6:32 pm
MimiCat
I told JillyJill I might just move close to her in Montana!
6:32 pm
gremlinn
*above, not about.
6:32 pm

Gremlinn...is this a picture of you on your icon?
6:33 pm
MimiCat
Then I won't tell you how beautiful you are! (Though I'm sure you are.)
6:34 pm

I just got into a habit of having pretty girl icons at some point...

Grem, I know your neck of the woods. I was raised in Ohio and my biological mother lived in Arlington Hgts. Loved coming over to Chicago to visit but hated flying into O'Hare EVER.
6:34 pm
MollyL
Kids, Grem is a guy : )
6:34 pm
lilliann
that would be nice to live up in the mountains mimi. i must say that i prefer hot sunny weather to the cold but i don't like dust
6:35 pm
lilliann
hi peri:)
6:35 pm
gremlinn
I don't know my neck of the woods very well yet - been here less than 2 years and lived in southern California all the years before.
6:35 pm
MimiCat
Well, Molly, the sex designation is neutral---I'm not psychic.
6:35 pm
gremlinn
Just trying to avoid being hit on by the ladies here!
6:36 pm
MimiCat
Grem, we have so much in common. I lived in LA for 7 years before moving to Phoenix. Still miss California every day and I've been here 30 years.
6:36 pm
lilliann
oh aye, i've just realized the colour of the little person :)
6:36 pm
MollyL
Too late. Cat is out of the bag. Run for it! : D
6:37 pm
gremlinn
Cool - well, I was from San Diego, but we had most of our relatives in the LA area, so we'd drive up there a lot (and I went to college in Claremont)
6:37 pm
MimiCat
No problem, Grem, you could easily outrun me since I'm not chasing anymore!
6:37 pm
MimiCat
Do you miss CA, too?
6:38 pm
gremlinn
Nahh, too brown :)
6:38 pm
gremlinn
It took a while to get used to seeing green everywhere when I moved here
6:40 pm
MimiCat
I just want a little house in the mountains where it's quiet and I come down for supplies once a month. Too much noise here in Phoenix. Getting old cranky. I turn 62 tomorrow.
6:42 pm

Happy birthday, if I'm not on tomorrow!
6:42 pm

6:46 pm
lilliann
i'm enjoying it more now that the list is up mimi but i was very thankful to people who had lists in their profiles today
6:46 pm
MimiCat
BTW, I've recently realized why people don't necessarily encourage friendships here....some of us aren't who we appear to be.........
6:46 pm
smores
gremlinn...I was wondering if maybe you'd like to get together sometime...maybe grab a coffee?
6:46 pm
MimiCat
But I do love this community.

You are not alone Lindy. There is a whole world of words that aren't counted here.
8:18 pm

can anyone give me a clue for the an 10 letter word?
8:20 pm

Add AN to a word that means what you do when you add water to your body, then change the second to the last vowel
8:20 pm
72 Temple Owl
molly: seein you evokes a pavlovian reaction to o make a microwave brownie
8:20 pm
MollyL
Make it plural for the 10
8:21 pm
MollyL
I can't help you with that TO. Maybe I should change my icon to a nice plate of carrot and celery sticks.
: D
8:21 pm
72 Temple Owl
no matter, conditioning has already taken place. one would think it would be smores who evoked that reaction.
8:22 pm
MollyL
And I would think Smores would trigger that reaction. I don't have a hundred recipes for chocolate things in my profile. : D

"eating choc cake and ice cream now"
8:40 pm
BzznBea
Hubs would appreciate that, Molly. No milk in the house.
8:40 pm
MollyL
I think it comes out more gloppy than that. You are better off sticking to cookies or brownies.
8:41 pm
smores
still...sounds interesting Molly
8:41 pm
72 Temple Owl
i think i will make zucchini pie, jus tcannot fins a on stick mini muffin tin for a reasonable price. quicker to eat and better for a crowd than a while pie. they like the recoipe
8:41 pm
MollyL
The egg and biscuit cups you make with the canned biscuit dough are nice portable breakfast eats.
8:42 pm
rururocks

oh? i have biscuit dough, spill

8:43 pm

Amazon has Bakers Secret muffin tins for 9.99
8:43 pm
72 Temple Owl
how i miss aj wright. would get on e for 3.99
8:45 pm
72 Temple Owl
clue for first de5/12 please? i think it comes from not living and i cannot fathom it
8:45 pm
MollyL
You butter a muffin tin and press each biscuit into each cup to form a cup. Then you soft scramble a bunch of eggs, leave them a little runny. Spoon the eggs into each cup and top with crumbled bacon or sausage and bake until the biscuit dough is golden. When you take them out, sprinkle them with shredded cheddar while they are still hot.
8:45 pm
72 Temple Owl
yummy!
8:45 pm
MollyL
You can put chopped onion and peppers in them too, if you think your crowd will like that.
8:45 pm
72 Temple Owl
and versatile
8:46 pm
72 Temple Owl
i have ham to sub
8:46 pm
72 Temple Owl
i will make mini westerns!!!! thank you!

Yeah, ham works too. Whatever breakfast meat you like.
8:46 pm

8:46 pm

i ahve peppers and onions, too! i cannot wait to workt he convention, it will be a blast to see tom jones
8:47 pm

Oh, he needs to sing It's Not Unusual so everyone can do the Carlton dance. : D
8:47 pm
72 Temple Owl
i won't have to worry about sticking, the zucchini will stick more often than not
8:48 pm
72 Temple Owl
