1:01 am

grannyrose

for the de7, add a vowel to the end

1:02 am

anike

TY very much. Thats fireworks for me.

1:02 am

Gotta go. Happy babbling everyone

1:07 am

1:09 am

grannyrose

WTG DIZ!!!!

1:11 am

flosey

rose, just sent email

1:11 am

flosey

going to get ready for bed so that I don't disturb hubby when I give up on the grid, brb

1:11 am

cybernan

tell him to bear with it -- he will be throwing away the walker and using a cane in about 2 weeks. Just make sure he starts physio within 5 days and does the exercises without fail - it pays. I'm 9 weeks in now and anxious to have the other knee done -- the replacement knee is better than it has been in years.

1:12 am

grannyrose

thanx flosey. checking now

1:19 am

good morning everyone

6:02 am

sukee

Hey Crossy, how are things?

6:05 am

crosshair

not too bad, sukee, fighting the good fight and all that:)

6:08 am

sukee

Our snow is practically gone, how about yours?

6:09 am

crosshair

ours is going fast as well, only about a foot or so left

6:20 am

mattygroves

Today, I spotted an old man with a big beard building a boat and leading the animals in two by two. You may gather it's raining

6:20 am

sukee

Lol, here too. Buffalo is going to float away.

6:21 am

sukee

Kept looking for a word and realized I already had it. doh.

6:23 am

MollyL

What? The snow is not sustainable? I thought everything had to be sustainable now, so we could use the word sustainable a lot. : D

6:24 am

crosshair

your word for the day?

6:24 am

crosshair

:)

6:25 am

sukee

I need sustenance to be sustainable, will be back.

6:25 am

MollyL

No, one of the current "over used" words.
: D

6:25 am

MollyL

Like super food

6:25 am

mattygroves

46 words and come to a grinding halt

6:25 am

crosshair

The only thing super about the food of late is the high prices;(

6:25 am

sukee

Keep going matty, I got down to 20

6:26 am

MollyL

I saw an article recently titled "The Most Super Superfood". Who writes this crap?

6:28 am

crosshair

over used sayings that are driving me mad... "At the end of the day"... "it is what it is".... plus I am now around 19-25 year old's a lot and it seems that every other word out of their mouth is a vulgarity :(

6:29 am

crosshair

I have come to the conclusion that teachers do not get paid near enough:)

6:31 am

crosshair

I am plowing though the novel Snow Falling on Cedars for class and it is very well written. i highly recommend it.

6:31 am

crosshair

took the author ten years to write it.

6:37 am

mattygroves

48 words - 62 left...I feel a list is required

6:37 am

crosshair

french duck alert:)

6:37 am

MollyL

When you live in a society where UPS drivers get paid more than teachers, something is very, very wrong.

6:38 am

crosshair

sure.. we must have all our crap from Amazon by the next day, so what if our cats cannot read beyond cat in The hat when they graduate?

6:38 am

crosshair

our kids*

6:39 am

crosshair

my cat does not read:) good thing too as I am sure he would bend the corners instead of using a bookmark:)

6:39 am

MollyL

If your cats can read The Cat In The Hat, I'm impressed
: D

6:41 am

crosshair

Everything must be delivered cheaper, better, and faster:(

6:42 am

MollyL

Gotta have our "stuff". (God I miss Carlin)

6:42 am

lbdawger

6:42 am

crosshair

Carlin got nasty in his later stuff.

6:43 am

lbdawger

pulling a peri, nm

6:44 am

mattygroves

Pulling a peri? I don't get it..?

6:46 am

MollyL

Peri is notorious for asking for a clue and then getting the word the next second

6:46 am

mattygroves

Aaah - Iv'e done that loads of time. Still not sure how that relates to the E though...

6:47 am

MollyL

Because LBD asked for a clue for it and then got it the next second...hence "nm" = never mind

6:47 am

mattygroves

I'm an idiot. Sorry

6:48 am

mattygroves

I got it into my head that was a clue * blush *

6:48 am

MollyL

I often wonder how many new people try to read this board with all the abbreviations and "inside" phrases and wonder what is wrong with all of us

6:52 am

Marc Freeman

Could I get a clue for the 8, please?

6:54 am

lbdawger

It's odd that deadman is in a2z but not in the babble dictionary

9:33 am

tmeses

of course, its not in the puzzle either, so it doesn't matter

9:35 am

hego

Not unusual. The Enable dictionary doesn't include a lot of words. A source of endless woe. for Babble players.

9:36 am

crosshair

Enable is a mysterious conundrum of an enigma:)

MollyL

Pen, you best bet for finding words on your own when you have asked for stats is to duck out of chat. Someone inevitably feels the need to clue it.

10:06 am

penquis

i know....i keep telling myself that....

10:06 am

hego

and others are asking for clues.

10:07 am

penquis

when someone asks, it's easier for me to ignore chat for a while....like it's a prod to ignore... ;o)

10:08 am

MollyL

Unfortunately, chat is very clue heavy these days. People who like to find words on their own usually have to stay out of chat until they are done.

Ah, Hello Kitty. Do you like Pokeman too?
: P

10:10 am

hego

10:10 am

Judi

Pokemon sucks.

10:10 am

hego

hahaha

10:10 am

Judi

I don't get the whole Japanese anime thing.

10:10 am

hego

I like a person who knows what they like.

10:11 am

Judi

I actually changed my icon. Refresh!

10:11 am

MollyL

Hello Kitty is part of the Japanese thing. Her real name is Kiti Howaito

10:11 am

MollyL

Ahahaha! Love the neti pot

10:12 am

hego

Oh, lovely Judi.

10:12 am

Judi

Well, I learned something about Hello Kitty. Go figure.

10:12 am

MollyL

I have a friend who calls neti pots "enemas for the nasal passages"

10:13 am

Judi

My friend Charlotte swears by her neti pot.

10:13 am

hego

I use one occasionally.

10:13 am

hego

they really work, but not a fun experience.

10:14 am

Judi

I've never tried one. Fortunately, don't think I've ever been desperate enough.

10:14 am

phandmd

good morning. I probably could use a netti pot today. Ugh!

10:15 am

hego

If you suffer from any chronic sinus or allergy problems they're very good.

10:15 am

hego

and no pill popping.

10:15 am

phandmd

can it be purchased at Walmart or the like?

10:16 am

hego

yes

10:16 am

hego

but you must use distilled or boiled water.

10:16 am

MollyL

You will find them in the snot flushing section

10:16 am

phandmd

I may be making a purchase then...

10:16 am

Judi

*passes phan a neti pot and a plunger*

10:16 am

phandmd

why is that, Hego?

10:17 am

hego

drug store chains sell kits with packets to make saline.

10:17 am

phandmd

Thanks, Judi.

10:17 am

hego

amoebae in tap water can cause dangerous infections.

10:18 am

10:18 am

Judi

Can you use distilled water with it?

10:18 am

hego

yw

10:18 am

hego

10:19 am

Judi

Bourbon? Oh wait. Probably not a good idea. And a waste of bourbon. Time for breakfast! *POOF*

10:19 am

hego

no, you drink that.

10:20 am

MollyL

I weep for the waste of good liquor here. Someone was talking about cleaning jewelry in gin the other day.

10:21 am

hego

you can use drug store alcohol for that.

10:21 am

phandmd

10:21 am

10:35 am

12:06 pm

rururocks

12:08 pm

Soodle

Tinker is an extremely derogatory term here. It used to be used for the nomadic itinerants who travelled the roads for centuries here. Now they are an 'Ethnic Group' and like to be called travellers.

12:40 pm

rubyfoo

It's only my *******

12:42 pm

rubyfoo

It would be very easy to write smutty limericks, I just realized

12:43 pm

rubyfoo

I'm just sayin'

12:43 pm

Soodle

I can't wait :-) I can just imagine a long line of men waiting at Ruby's front door, and me, in all my glory, passing or failing them. Why didn't I go visit Ruby before now?

12:44 pm

rururocks

12:44 pm

Soodle

'Twas on the good ship Venus........"

12:44 pm

12:45 pm

LeslieAnn

When Ruby was visited by Soodle
Ruby wanted her to have the whole kit and caboodle
So she round up all the guys
Ranked them by size
And had her select her favorite noodle

12:45 pm

rururocks

YAY leslie

12:45 pm

rururocks

LOL

12:45 pm

12:53 pm

rubyfoo

I've runout of words and last lines

12:54 pm

Soodle

1:00 pm

Soodle

Amongst all us Babbling Dolls, One stands out, and her name is Molls. She is sharp, she is witty, with her comments so pithy, She makes sure that we all have great LOL's.

1:00 pm

bichon

Hera! Hear!

1:00 pm

Soodle

And not a curmudgeon in sight.

1:02 pm

phandmd

Nice, Soodle! You are quite good with words!

1:02 pm

rubyfoo

And then there's our Molly, Her glot is quite poly, We all think she's pretty, And always so witty, And in unison say, Oh by golly

1:03 pm

rubyfoo

Good night, friends, this was fun

1:14 pm

Soodle

Just disposed of a tarantula sized spider from the bathtub & administered TLC to traumatised youngest daughter. Eughhh

1:19 pm

ursh

lol Soodle - I run a "no kill" household and completely freaked grandaughter out by catching a large (remember this is Africa) spider in a glass and tossing him out the door

1:19 pm

hego

Hello all you crazy kids.

1:19 pm

rubyfoo

OMG I just came back. Does anybody know why they come out of drains?

1:19 pm

hego

I never kill anything.

1:20 pm

hego

I make my husband do it.

1:20 pm

rubyfoo

Do you know what kind it was, soodle|?

1:20 pm

ursh

I think they get into bathtub and cant get out

1:20 pm

hego

why, Ruby??

1:20 pm

MollyL

I don't kill little spiders. I would take a Colt .45 to a tarantula sized one though.

1:20 pm

hego

Hey Ursh, how are you?

1:20 pm

bichon

I used to think when I was a child that eels could swim up the drains

1:21 pm

Soodle

Ursh, If I had a hat on, I would take it off to you. I do not like spiders. I applaud your no kill policy, but in this house its.. Adios Spiders

1:21 pm

hego

scary!

1:21 pm

Soodle

Hi Hego :-)

1:21 pm

rubyfoo

"my" tegeraria gigantean came out of the kitchen drain and was almost as big as my hand. Horrible! And moved too fast

1:21 pm

MollyL

And all this time Mr. Rogers thought kids were worried about going down the drain. It was EELS!!!!

1:21 pm

hego

EEEK!!!

1:22 pm

rubyfoo

EEl

1:22 pm

hego

lol

1:22 pm

MollyL

If a spider is big enough for me to be able to hear it, it dies.

1:22 pm

rubyfoo

That is the stuff of nightmares, bichon

1:23 pm

hego

getting the Raid.

1:23 pm

rubyfoo

I'm normally not afraid of them but that big AND indoors!!!!

1:23 pm

Soodle

The building I work in is completely overrun with mice at the moment. The recent cold weather has them all seeking refuge. I am not a mouse fan either.

1:23 pm

rubyfoo

My sister used to spray them with hairspray

1:23 pm

bichon

I had been swimming in a pool and the next morning there were eels swimming in it. Someone said that they swam up the drain. That was it for me for years

1:23 pm

hego

I've done that Ruby, but it's messy.

1:24 pm

rubyfoo

That is a terrible story, bichon, do you go into pools now?

1:24 pm

Soodle

Aaarrrggghh Bich. Thats gross.

1:24 pm

hego

Imagines Soodle working with her feet up on the desk.

1:25 pm

Soodle

Imagine Soodle working. Full stop!

1:25 pm

rubyfoo

but mousetraps are horrible because then you hear the trap bounding around

1:25 pm

hego

lol Soods

1:25 pm

hego

1:26 pm

bichon

Yes, I have finally conquered my fears. But for years I couldn't swim over the drain.

1:26 pm

bichon

1:27 pm

hego

creeping me out now....

1:27 pm

rubyfoo

what about bats?

1:28 pm

hego

they're okay

1:28 pm

bichon

I don't have a problem with bats. They can carry disease, but I doubt I have anything to fear

1:28 pm

hego

I stay out of caves.

1:28 pm

phandmd

may I have a clue for AN5/10?

1:28 pm

Soodle

No fear of bats, Ruby, other than the fear that they might get tangled up in my hair.

1:34 pm

Haha Soodle - scary things to encounter - especially in the bush cos then in our heads they must be deadly

1:34 pm

Soodle

Utterly amazing, Hego. The kids were small - all under 12 - the principal teacher in their school gave out to me for them missing school for 3 weeks. I retorted that the experience they would have would far outweigh what they missed out on, and I was proved right.

1:35 pm

hego

I agree completely.

1:35 pm

ursh

I have cats and they regularly bring in presents of mostly grass snakes and house snakes thank heavens

1:35 pm

bichon

South Africa must have a lot of scary animals, insects, reptiles

1:36 pm

hego

Australia is the worst for poisonous snakes and insects.

1:37 pm

ursh

We do I suppose bichon but they mostly stay away from people - clever things
