Hi everyone. In for an hour or so of babbling tonight, then an early bed for me.

12:08 am

Hugabugs

Hi Boys and Neil. Late one last night Neil?

12:09 am

Boysaway

Hi Hugs, up early or up late?

12:10 am

JBsAnno

OK, last one: s6/21. Now I'm really out! (and just so you all know, I'm Anno, but different than the "other" Annos out there by being JB's Anno) Sweet Babbling to you all!

12:10 am

sfneil

Hi Hugs... kind of a late one last night, but I'm feeling a bit under the weather as well (although the weather's great!).

12:11 am

Hugabugs

Boys - It's just after midnight here.

12:11 am

Hugabugs

Sorry to hear that Neil. Hope you feel better soon.

12:12 am

Boysaway

Oh, it's just after 6am here!

12:13 am

Hugabugs

Pretty early for a Sunday, isn't it Boys?

12:13 am

sfneil

Thanks, Hugs. I'm sure it's nothing serious... some rest will fix me right up.

12:14 am

Boysaway

Yes, but I had a bad dream and couldn't get back to sleep. Now can't remember what said dream was about!

12:15 am

Blaze

boaysaway.... that is unsettling isn't it... had the same thing happen from time to time....

12:15 am

Hugabugs

Neil - Out of town travelling for business always wore me right out.

12:16 am

Boysaway

I think this grid is going to be a big one!

12:16 am

sfneil

Yes Hugs, I think that has a lot to do with it. Nice to be home, relax, have a babble and turn in early!

12:18 am

Hugabugs

How long were you gone?

12:20 am

sfneil

left sunday morning early, was supposed to fly back late evening on wednesday, but through an airport mixup had to spend wed night at the hotel airport. finally made it back thursday afternoon, but then had to go right into the office and again on friday!

12:20 am

sfneil

er, "airport hotel"

12:21 am

Hugabugs

Eww that sucks. At least you didn't have to change time zones... that makes it even harder to handle.

12:22 am

sfneil

yeah, it was more frustrating than anything else, really... i love to travel, but not on business!

12:26 am

Hugabugs

I know what you mean... besides all the travelling time, hassles at the airport, and then expected to put in full days. And often, depending on the occasion, you're expected to spend all evening and sometimes late into the night fraternizing.

12:26 am

Jera

sfneil... good to see you... it's been a while!!

12:28 am

sfneil

Jera: nice e you, too! I had to go to Seattle on business for most of this week and, being a Luddite, I don't have a laptop!

Hugs: indeed. I had made a list of great Seattle restaurants I wanted to try, but all but one night was spent eating crappy pizza and such with the folks from the workplace. ugh.

12:29 am

sfneil

Ugh. "nice to see you" geez!

12:30 am

Jera

Seattle... how exciting... I don't travel much, but I've been told I would like Seattle...

12:31 am

sfneil

I've been a few times now... I really like it. If I didn't live in San Francisco, I'd probably choose Seattle, or maybe Vancouver.

12:32 am

Hugabugs

I've been to Vancouver a few times, and have driven through Seattle, but never got a chance to actually visit it.

12:34 am

Jera

I like wet, cool weather, overcast is the best... I am a bit photosensitive... get migraines in too much sun...

12:34 am

sfneil

Hugs you should visit Seattle if you get a chance... it seems to me kind of like a cross between San Francisco and Vancouver.

12:34 am

Boysaway

147 words, not too bad!

12:36 am

Hugabugs

I have family in Victoria and Vancouver, so I usually end up hitting Seattle returning home at the end of vacation. I've yet to see SF too. But I have been to LA.

12:36 am

sfneil

Yikes! Please don't think of SF as being anything like LA... it's not!

12:37 am

Blaze

I live outside of Vancouver and did travel lots and now stick close to home...

12:38 am

Hugabugs

Oh don't worry, Neil... I haven't drawn that conclusion at all.

12:38 am

Hugabugs

m6/27

12:40 am

sfneil

Glad to hear it, Hugs. Sometimes people seem to think that California is all sunny beaches full of blonde movie stars, but Northern Cal is such a very different place.

12:41 am

Hugabugs

s6/27

12:42 am

sfneil

Not that I think there's anything wrong with So Cal, if that's you're thing... it's just that I prefer San Francisco. ;)

12:43 am

Hugabugs

I don't know how people could lump a whole state the size of California into one opinion like that.

melissamay

Hello all. That was the 7s in short order! I was expecting this to be quite a long one given all the esses, but I guess not!

12:48 am

Hugabugs

There are quite a number of 6's that are missing though.

12:49 am

sfneil

Well, hi, melissamay! I can't seem to find the p7...

12:49 am

Hugabugs

Got the O's all done. Really normal words for a change.

12:50 am

Hugabugs

Neil - SHE rights lovely verses.

12:50 am

Hugabugs

oops - writes

12:51 am

melissamay

d6/27, e6/24, e6/27, a ton of esses, but I don't want to repeat the log so let me double-check.

sfneil, think Emily Dickenson, Edna St. Vincent Millay, and others of their ilk.

12:51 am

sfneil

...as you write lovely clues, Hugs! Thanks!

12:52 am

sfneil

and thanks, mm!

12:54 am

melissamay

There's 3 s6/27s I've found so far.

12:54 am

melissamay

Oops, make that 4!

12:55 am

Hugabugs

MM - was that d6/27 you posted another one?

12:56 am

Hugabugs

You're welcome and thanks Neil.

12:56 am

melissamay

Must be -- sorry. Dang it, I always try to avoid that. I'm bad at posting stats!

12:57 am

Jera

I agree Hugs... rather pleasant puzzle... maybe I can keep what;s left of my hair!

12:57 am

sfneil

So... more than one d6/27? or not? (Sorry, I'm getting sleepy and confused.)

12:58 am

melissamay

No sfneil, just the one -- at least by my count.

12:58 am

sfneil

thanks, mm!

1:07 am

Jera

I have a first letter word count if it's not too early...

1:07 am

Hugabugs

Are you finished already Jera?

1:07 am

Blaze

Jera go for it....

1:07 am

melissamay

Wow, Jera, are you already done?

1:10 am

Jera

Oh no, I just did the math from the stats grid of how many of each letter... gotta make my chart!

1:10 am

Jera

D â€“ 12
E â€“ 7
F â€“ 4
G â€“ 5
I â€“ 1
M â€“ 25
O â€“ 9
P â€“ 20
S â€“ 41
T â€“ 23

1:11 am

Jera

Oops, cut & paste from word made funny little things...

Jera

D - 12
E - 7
F - 4
G - 5
I - 1
M - 25
O - 9
P - 20
S - 41
T - 23

sfneil

Hugs: blunted swords, hammy actors

1:17 am

melissamay

Hugs, if you have the m4/6, that will help.

1:18 am

Hugabugs

duh... thanks Neil and MM

1:20 am

melissamay

Thanks Boysaway, very much. I can't add to your list yet, and I've a few to find -- those T6/24s, for instance.

1:20 am

Hugabugs

Sorry Boys - I can't add any others yet.

1:20 am

bfdeele

I have m6/24 x 2

1:21 am

sfneil

grrr! I have m6/24 x 0!

1:21 am

Hugabugs

Well, you know what I always say.... ;o)

1:21 am

Blaze

m6/24 is like a creed.....two spellings

1:23 am

Boysaway

Thanks bfdeele

1:27 am

bfdeele

you're welcome.

Also, s6/21 x 2

1:28 am

Blaze

I can not believe there are 3 e words I have on 4/6 I will struggling on this for a while

1:29 am

sfneil

Ugh. I have m5 and m7 that are like a creed, but no m6's! Maybe I better go to bed...

1:30 am

Dianne

sfneil - more than on m5

1:30 am

Dianne

I mean more than one.

1:30 am

Blaze

change vowel on one and plural the other

1:31 am

sfneil

Hugabugs

Neil - drop a letter near the end of your m7

1:32 am

bfdeele

1:32 am

sfneil

And thanks, blaze!

1:32 am

melissamay

Well, I found one of the t6/24s -- a dwelling. But that other one, yeesh. Would someone mind giving me a nudge?

1:33 am

Blaze

wish I could but I am no where near having many T's

1:33 am

sfneil

is it possible to have latitudinal jetlag? because if it is, i think i've got it!

1:34 am

Blaze

sounds like you need a great nites sleep to recuperate...

1:34 am

melissamay

Whenever I travel for business, it always takes me a day or two to get my bearings back -- don't feel at all bad, sfneil.

1:35 am

sfneil

anyway, even though I can't help you, thanks for two more T's, mm!

1:36 am

bfdeele

for the T6/24 think a very big Indian carving

1:36 am

SummerBreeze44

S6/24-Plural of what one does with a teabag

1:36 am

Hugabugs

geez - that's the one I DO have

1:37 am

bfdeele

sorry, that T6 is a plural

1:37 am

melissamay

No prob, sfneil -- I think I've hit that Babble wall where the remaining progress will be by inches.

1:38 am

Blaze

I have 8 of the 9 E's but need help to seek misisng one
edx1--emx3--epx2

1:39 am

sfneil

thanks, bfdeele! two more t's for me before I turn in (and to think I was just in the Pacific Northwest and didn't see those!)

Anyway, goodnight all! Didn't even break 100 tonight, but will be back tomorrow to tackle the rest (after 'the rest'!).

Cheers,

Neil

Dictionary.com sez go5/14 = "A triangular piece of fabric usually set into the hem of a garment to add fullness." The things you learn here...

8:15 am

Miyavi_fan

Wow...I can't help it, I'm still impressed. Though it was maybe a mistake to watch Misery all alone last night. I kept telling myself "you're nearly 14, you can watch a certificate 18 by yourself"...is it just me or is there a flaw in that somewhere?

Miss - what thriller was that?! Usually I just burrow my way down into the nearest soft object when I'm watching

8:22 am

ok c sorry but it was true though hehe

Ah, she's gone...Gem, once you know what 'hobbling' entails, you won't be so happy...and here's a clue, it doesn't mean limping...*evil laugh*

8:34 am

gem_gem

u never no it could work

8:34 am

Jacula

'Carrie 2' is far more gruesome but in a hilarious way - like 'The Evil Dead' films are. 'Carrie' is more menacing because more 'possible' imho.

8:34 am

swmbo

Miyawi, are you required to read or watch these books/movies?

8:35 am

Miyavi_fan

Jacula - there's a Carrie 2?! *whimpers*
Swmbo - no, but I read the books and really wanted to see the films. But I'm scared. *hangs head* It's a vicious circle...

8:37 am

gem_gem

y dont u wait til people(h.s etc) are coming round and all watch it 2gether

8:38 am

Miyavi_fan

Nah, I won't inflict that on others :) Besides, I think it has to go back to the video shop tomorrow...I'm still surprised they let me rent out an 18!

8:38 am

Uneaixoise

the last two po4/6's . . . i've got the "strike a p***"--hint re the other one please?

8:38 am

gem_gem

well then find a collection of pillows to hide behind when it get scary

8:39 am

Miyavi_fan

Yeah...anyway, about the grid...is it just me who keeps seeing the word 'sepia' in there?

8:39 am

Jacula

Miyavi - I know scaring yourself half to death is almost a prequisite at 13/14 (I used to watch Tales of Mystery & Imagination on TV even younger than that) and was an avid reader of the Pan Horror books. However, don't watch these films if they are going to disturb you.

8:40 am

swmbo

Une, the other is a spinner of words, a rhymer...

8:40 am

gem_gem

cathy u dont have 2 watch it if u dont want 2

8:41 am

Miyavi_fan

Don't worry, Jacula...I saw The Ring when I was 12 and somehow got over that...I'm probably just making a fuss over nothing. I'll shut up about it :)

8:42 am

Jacula

As a mother, Miyavi, I can't help but worry. Don't want you having nightmares!

8:43 am

Miyavi_fan

lol...thanks for your concern, but it's fine. As Gem will testify too, some of the bands I like are far scarier than Carrie :D

8:44 am

gem_gem

im not gonna coment because u'll hurt me on monday hehe

8:45 am

Uneaixoise

swmbo, thanks but i 've got that one . . .it's a po4 at the very end of the list . . .

I`ve got loads of halloween pics, cos my daughters birthday is the day before! This is a letter V from the halloween alphabet, so i may change it again soon!!!

8:54 am

swmbo

Sorry, Uni, I am just starting and so am not much help.

Miyavi, if you want to be really scared, stay away from Stephen King. Try To Kill A Mockingbird, or Oliver Twist or Les Miserables (get the abridged version, Hugo can be terribly wordy) Real life situations are far scarier, and interesting, than anything Stephen KIng has written. Not that there is anything wrong with King, i have read and enjoyed most of his stuff.

8:55 am

Kallia

last p is not a po....ps :)

8:56 am

Miyavi_fan

Thanks Swmbo, will check those out...the book To Kill A Mockingbird was so sad though *hods back tears*

no prob, Swmbo :-)

thanks so much, kallia!

I will.....she`ll be 10!!!! She`s still a witch LOL

9:00 am

Sad, but powerful. A great book. When I was only a bit older than you, I read War and Peace by Tolstoy. I don't recommend it, I was too young to get much out of it and have never tried it again.

9:01 am

Miyavi_fan

Wow...the mention of War and Peace fills my heart with dread...I'm fine with big books but that's starting to verge on ridiculous :)

Ooh, are we talking Witches now? I'll come up from my P daze to talk Witches!

9:04 am

9:05 am

Oooops sorry Jera, just done my nails, so typos are all over the place!!!
I know Miyavi....not looking forward to it :(

9:05 am

She was lucky! I was meant to be born on Valentines day, but came early...damn. At least if I'd come on the 14th I'd be sure to get a card on Valentines day!

9:06 am

My daughter is 9 1/2 & she's very into my Witch stuff, loves the decorating, cooking, craft projects... she keeps me excited sometimes!

9:07 am

Speaking of the supernatural, I must be off...Carrie beckons. Wish me luck!

9:07 am

Wow, do the girl scouts have a big celebration then?
We normally go to Blackpool to see the lights every year, last year we stayed over cos some friends of ours have bought a guest house/B&B

Hello everybody, I am new here. Im playing this 4th or 5th time, I dont know. Its been only once that ive come over 1000 score. Is it that I am stupid, or that English is not my first language, or is it both?

I have problems and Engilsh is my first language turnovisious

Anj

yay! Karys :)

Hi turnoviseous, only about 50% of the words in each puzzle are in common usage. You might need a reference site for the rest although the 2nd letter lists that get posted in the log are probably more useful :)

10:01 am

Karys

drop the last letter of pe4/6 and extend zoom

Is there anything profound this game I should know? Any hidden tips? :)

English as a first language doesn't always help with Babble... many foreign words are valid... then there's the wholse American English vs. English English & the various spellings...

'bye for now Gem :)

Turn, the best advice I can give is that if it looks like it could be a word, it probably is. Enter it and see :)

10:04 am

FMitch

if you get hooked (which you will - be warned) go pro as that does really help to show where the words at least stem from and how many there are.

10:05 am

sherb

well done Karys!

Anj - I try that some weekdays, printing off the grid in the morning and taking it to work, but I can usually only get 60/70% on my own.

turno - get ready to reorganise your life - this is compulsive :D

10:22 am

BTW, everybody, how the hell can I know how many words are missing to completion?

10:23 am

sproing

Another way to get the pe5 is to take your pe4, remove the last letter, and add a preposition

10:23 am

sherb

there isn't a pe5/15 - do you mean one of the 14's, the monetary unit or the breast?

just back from picking daughter up. what's the breast thing all about - sounds intriguing.... and with the p4, is it just the last letter you remove to get the p5...if that makes any sense at all?

10:32 am

2 x st4/6

10:32 am

Re the stats it is an average of yr individual score average on a rolling 30 day period alongside other peoples and it depends on how many are playing, how long they have been playing and what the total word score is (I think).
Maybe Dr G was an accountant/tax man/programmer in another life to set something so complex up?

11:00 am

roncook, it's an alternative spelling for the plural of an mo5.

11:00 am

smithchick

Am I going to want to beat myself when I get the di7? Or is it obscure?

11:01 am

FMitch

Smith - you may want to throw it away?

11:48 am

Miyavi_fan

Hey Sherb :) Had some serious nightmares after Misery!
Movieman - oooooh my gosh...the scene with all the knives, the blood and the grave...when her mother was stabbed I dived behind the sofa...gonna take several years of therapy to get rid of THOSE images

11:48 am

jakes-mum

hiya padfoot (r u a harry potter fan?)

11:48 am

Miyavi_fan

Lola - no! nooo! It was horrible! The actress who played Carrie just looked like a skeleton dripping with blood...*shudders*

Yes!

11:51 am

How can you have any appetite?! Doesn't the talk of the film put you off?! If I ever see ketchup again It'll be too soon...

11:51 am

lola100

Anj- kaff will be cross if you eat cake now before supper!

11:51 am

movieman

Miyavi - don't worry, I saw 'A Nightmare On Elm Street' for the first time when I was 12, and I was afraid to sleep in my own bed for at least a week afterwards...plus the night after I watched it seemed like the longest night of my life 'cos I couldn't sleep for more than 2 or 3 minutes at a time...

11:52 am

Miyavi_fan

Not all of them...Carrie and Tommy shouldn't have. But her mother looked really like that model of Jesus they had in the closet...anyone else notice that? Scary eyes, scary eyes...

11:53 am

Miyavi_fan

Movieman - I know what you mean, I saw The Ring when I was 11 or 12...even now I hardly ever watch TV anymore, I'm convinced a little girl is going to crawl out of the screen...

11:54 am

sherb

Miyavi - where is this shop that lets you rent these films?

11:54 am

jakes-mum

I can only get the first and last E words can I have some clues please (I have to go make dinner in a mo and cant leave with such am abysmal E score)

11:55 am

movieman

Miyavi - and going back to 'Elm Street', it was at least 5 or 6 years before I could pluck up the courage to watch another 'Freddy Krueger' movie...

11:55 am

sherb

jakes - the three em's are to do with what hammy actors do, darling :)

11:55 am

Miyavi_fan

It's just a regular Blockbuster, that's what surprised me so much! There's no way I look 18! But I just went up to the counter, not expecting it to work (had to plead with the mother first) and she just asked me if I wanted a bag

11:56 am

sproing

Help! Need a clue for the sp5/16 and sp6/27 -- they're driving me mad!

11:56 am

lola100

jakes- for the three em's think of what makes us laugh and cry, shorten it and monkey a few letters on the end. The ep's are a type of sword.

11:56 am

jakes-mum

Sherb you are gorgeous thankyou

11:57 am

Miyavi_fan

Movieman - You're braver than I am then, I prefer to read the books that Ring was based on...try as I might, I just can't force my hand to reach out for the Ring 2...the thought of watching the Freddy Krueger films makes me feel faint...*swoons*

11:58 am

lola100

sproing- think what you use to dig in the garden and change the vowel :)

11:58 am

Anj

Cheers Jakes :)

Lola, darling, it's chocolate cake. Normal rules don't apply babe. (((x)))

OK, have to scoot for a while. Should be back on later if anyone needs an Anj fix.

11:59 am

jakes-mum

Right I really have to go as the roast chicken is almost cooked and I have two hungry boys shouting at me from downstairs, will be back later on

11:59 am

Miyavi_fan

Bye to both :)

12:00 pm

sproing

thanks lola! great clue!

12:01 pm

sherb

I'm surprised too, Miyavi. I wouldn't watch those films myself.

12:02 pm

Miyavi_fan

They're actually not as bad as I expected...or at least Carrie wasn't. But the 'hobbling' scene in Misery...urgh...

12:02 pm

lola100

Cheers babe :)
Say hi to kaff for me...lol! See you later ;)

12:03 pm

lola100

'bye jakes...see you later :)

12:03 pm

movieman

Miyavi - If u are even slightly tempted to watch any of the 'Elm Street' films, I suggest u start with part 2, 'cos it's the tamest of the lot...but if, as I imagine, u not one for gory scenes, do not watch parts 1 and 4 (Johnny Depp's character dies rather messily in part 1 and there's a scene in part 4 where Freddy turns one of his victims into a cockroach...ewwww gross...)

12:04 pm

lianakate

Most teenagers like those scary movies!! My one niece in particular couldnt sleep or go anywhere down the street by herself at night..after seeing, and reading some Steven King book, about a clown..

12:05 pm

sfneil

snithchick, you may want to d7 of yourself!

12:05 pm

movieman

Liana - I expect u are referring to Stephen King's It, about Pennywise the Dancing Clown...

Hi Miyavi. Isee you made it through the night! Hello, Everyone!

go7 heavenly female........

12:07 pm

Mary

sfneil you are missing a GO5/14 and it's plural GO6/24

12:08 pm

Miyavi_fan

Ah, the sound effects in Carrie are too overdone...it was made in 1976, so when she's using her telekinesis, there's these noises that sound like someone sharpening a knife...but the scariest thing is the way she looks after she's been covered in blood

12:08 pm

lianakate

I have to admit..i censored my childrens TV watching with an eagle eye..some of that stuff is scary even to adults!!!!

12:08 pm

sherb

sf - go5, Waiting for Go***, but change the second vowel

12:08 pm

lola100

karen- di4 is the same as the name of a singer . The d5 has the same first three letters and ends in shortened word for road :)

12:08 pm

Miyavi_fan

Hey Deutsch! Yup, just about...though had several disturbing nightmares along the way! Was also stupid enough to watch Carrie this afty :)

12:09 pm

movieman

Miyavi - liana was referring to It, the one about Pennywise the Dancing Clown, but the book is qiute lengthy (well over 1000 pages) and the film version is over 3 hours long (and it differs from the book in some aspects, not surprising, 'cos if they'd filmed it word-for-word, the film would have to be at least twice as long lol...)

12:09 pm

sfneil

Thanks, Mary and sherb... got 'em!! I'm all done! Wooo!

12:09 pm

Hi deutsch :)

12:09 pm

Over 1000 pages?! Wow. May google it though...just see what it's about anyway

12:10 pm

Whew! Okay... off for some breakfast. I'll check in later to see if I can be of any use to anyone. Thanks!

12:12 pm

Mary

I'm missing only two, need an SE4/7 and an SO4/6. They are probably normal words staring me right in the face. Any help, anyone?

12:12 pm

Miyavi_fan

Blimey...freaky...if I read that I'd never be able to enjoy Cirque de Soleil again, that's for sure

12:13 pm

liana - did you find the di5, ancient form of the past tense of to do?

12:27 pm

lianakate

sherb..NO..i dont think.

12:28 pm

sherb

the other pe5 means breast, apparently...begins with your family cat or dog and ends in a prepositon :)

12:29 pm

Deutsch

Just back from snagging lists. And now some one and I are going to lunch. Later days! BBL

12:29 pm

sherb

liana - last two letters are an abbreviation of 'street' :)

12:29 pm

lianakate

that was it sherb..the ancient word..usually I am up on that since i am bordering ancient myself..LOL, ty

12:32 pm

lianakate

sherb..ty, ty..apparently i needed the breasties word too! although..i have never heard of it..might go look it up in dictionary..Once again..my undying thanks..:)

12:32 pm

Miyavi_fan

Ah, Liana, if personality has any reference to age, you're not a day over eighteen :)

12:33 pm

Please will someone help me? I am missing 2 x mo5/14. I have the animal, the hypothetical case, the dust thingies, the saying and the tufts of hair :)

12:33 pm

sherb

y/w liana. Just read your profile.....would love to see your team perform, lol :D

12:34 pm

lianakate

Miyavi..i hear that all the time..at least I think thats what they mean when they holler.."fer chrissakes, GROW UP, willya?"

12:35 pm

lianakate

sherb..the little bathing caps with the daisies are particularly charming....IF they leave the daisies on the caps..I have had to admonish the "boys" many times about that...

12:36 pm

sherb

lola - both of them are mo4/6's with an 'e' on the end, not that you would have guessed it :)

12:36 pm

Miyavi_fan

Sure, that's what they mean, Liana! I get that particular comment thrown at me all the time!

12:36 pm

dazza

Anyone got the A`s breakdown please

12:36 pm

dyberrah

Hello all - I cannot get di 5/14 - can I have a clue please? I have looked back through the posts, but I'm still not getting it :(

12:37 pm

Thanks sherb :) Silly words....

12:37 pm

Stupid me,on the phone,the D`s please.

12:38 pm

Right, suppers ready. Will be back later :)

12:38 pm

sproing

Just down to the Ds and Es now and I am still spurning a2z :)

12:38 pm

sherb

lol, liana

dyberrah - its starts with the top left 'd', and ends with an abbreviation for 'street'. There's only one way that can happen :)

12:40 pm

lianakate

miya..lol, you remind me of my favorite niece..very.precosious...lol, she is the one that freaked at the scary movies..and was particularly effronted by Carries mother, ..referring to "dirty pillows" ..lol, we laughed like anything about that.

12:40 pm

dyberrah

Thanks sherb :) It's so obvious...now!

12:41 pm

lianakate

ewwww..i misspellled the Prec..word..sowwy..it wouldnt come out right...

12:41 pm

Miyavi_fan

Ah, the mother in the film was a bit disappointing...she was way too calm

12:42 pm

lianakate

she was calm because she was evil..evil doesnt get too excited..it just...IS.

12:43 pm

Miyavi_fan

But in the book, the mother was really hysterical and mad...I think they should have put that in the film

12:44 pm

lianakate

you may be right, Miya..its been a long time since i saw that film..i havent been to the movies in 15 yrs ..

12:45 pm

oggy

has anyone got the s, and t list please/thanks

12:46 pm

sherb

I find a lot of films are disappointing after reading the book. Most films can't compare with the images you create in your mind when you read.

12:46 pm

Miyavi_fan

Heheh...rent it out...I dare you

12:46 pm

lianakate

i need 24 words yet..and am needing a major break..be back this evening..Thanks all, for the clues..and the macabre conversations..(i love it..lol)

12:47 pm

movieman

To any of u precious fellow Babblers - I am only missing 2 words, a g5 and a g6...a list of the g's would be extremely useful right about now...

Gracias...

12:47 pm

lianakate

i have seen carrie many times..just been years ago...i think with sissy spacek..who is a hell of an actress...

12:48 pm

Blaze

Your g 5 and 6 have the same root word as yor g4 think (little ones) generals vs. cadets

12:48 pm

lianakate

sherb..i agree ..only one movie i have seen was as good as Margaret Mitchells book.."Gone with the Wind"

12:48 pm

Miyavi_fan

Ah, she looked so scary! She was perfect for that role, she just looked so horrible covered in the blood

12:49 pm

lianakate

LOL, miyavi..calm down..LMAO..geez..youre obsessing now..mit blud n guts..QUIT..HAHAHAHAHA

4:15 pm

lalobstah

sorry gem gem but you will have to be more specific in your requests :(

4:16 pm

sandr

fe4/9 old fashioned dandy plural

4:16 pm

lalobstah

nevermind. had the wrong letter.

4:16 pm

gem_gem

ok but i dont under stand the 2letter no/another no thingy

4:16 pm

kristin

lab "A man who is preoccupied with and often vain about his clothes and manners; a dandy."

4:17 pm

sandr

and its fo 4/9 lol

4:17 pm

kristin

gem gem the two letter word list gives you the first two letters of your words, it makes it much easier to find words that way

4:18 pm

kristin

mo, not getting the bristly clue - got another one?

4:18 pm

gem_gem

thans think i get it but not sure soooooo i'l just nod lol

4:18 pm

gem_gem

lola!!!!! help me

4:19 pm

kristin

gem gem de4/y - the word starts with de and is four letters long totalling 7 points

4:19 pm

lola100

I'm back gem! What do you need?

4:19 pm

kristin

sorry should be de4/7

4:20 pm

gem_gem

help lmao

4:20 pm

mo

kristin ..not very good at clues ,but i am thinking ..i will be back to you

4:20 pm

gem_gem

ooooooooo thats clever thanku

4:21 pm

gem_gem

help with the m's please lola

4:21 pm

lola100

Okay, do you understand how the code works? Each tile has a value, so a four letter word using four tile with a value of 1 each would be a 4/4. You multiply the score by 2 for a 5 letter word, 3 for a 6 letter word and so on. Does that make sense?

4:22 pm

sandr

any clues for the po 7/36

4:22 pm

Babbler

does se4/7 really exist, anyone? ty

4:22 pm

gem_gem

4:24 pm

Babbler

4:24 pm

mo

kristin the 1st part of the word is what a jelly does when it goes cold and the 2nd half sounds like the end of your feet!!!

4:24 pm

gem_gem

4:25 pm

lola100

Okay, tell me what you've got and I'll work on some clues for what you don't :)

OMG I can only put it down to a really tiring day! I have found the last 2 words and they were words I should have found at 8pm!!!!!!!
So if that waters warm Lola I'll join you!
Thanks to all who have helped with the clues.

6:51 pm

AEuser

I always seem to have a good babble day on Sundays, probably because I sit in front of the computer for 4 hours listening to my home team game (American Football)

6:51 pm

lola100

Woohooo! Well done snowy! *pours snowy large glass of bubbly*

6:52 pm

Anj

Hey Snowy, you're becoming a regular in the custard tub :)

AE, who's your team??

Thanks Lola - I needed that!
That custard must be good for your skin Lola - no wrinkles at all and you've been it for hours!

6:55 pm

Anj

Babs, it more or less zips less used files to save space. A defrag is the best housekeeping system i've found. My last one took 4 hours :/ C: drive was a mess because i'd transferred a load of archive stuff to my F: drive...

6:55 pm

lola100

LOL! Pity it's not doing the bags under the eyes any good!!!

I am still stuck on di 5/14 . Any other clues?

8:51 pm

kittybat

8:57 pm

JeeWhiz

thanks kittybat

9:00 pm

Jera

Sorry, JW, things seemed slow so I wandered off to shop...

9:01 pm

JeeWhiz

No problem...did you buy anything fun?

9:07 pm

Eva

I'm missing the second sp6/27 and sp5/16. I have the sp6/27 that a cop pulls you over for and the sp5/16 that is the singular of that. Can anyone help?

9:09 pm

JeeWhiz

Think of a kind of china....sounds kind of like a digging tool, but with a different vowel.

9:11 pm

Eva

Thanks JW! I entered them but my grid didn't change...has anyone else had that problem?

9:14 pm

lbdawger

does anyone have the f's? i have four of the six.

9:15 pm

Eva

There are only 4 f's.

9:16 pm

lbdawger

oh good! and is the word count 143 or 145?

9:17 pm

Eva

Bad news....147

9:17 pm

lbdawger

wahhhh! so does anyone have the stats? i'm boggled and baffled!

9:18 pm

Eva

What stats would you like? The word lists are all there if you go back through the lposts for today.

9:19 pm

Blaze

9:20 pm

Blaze

Stats are also posted here

9:21 pm

Eva

Thanks Blaze. I have 11 left and have been stuck for quite a while. My neck is begining to hurt and I don't want to go to the chiropractor tomorrow, and explain that I'm injured because I'm a junky and at the ripe old age of 55 don't have the sense that God gave geese, so if I don't move on soon I'm going to call it a night.

9:22 pm

Blaze

Eva have you tried lowering your keyboard...or adjust your screen angle ???

9:24 pm

Eva

Yes, am experimenting with all of that, but have a some muscular problems which make this not a good thing to do for any duration at all no matter how well positioned. Now if I could only remember to get up every 15 minutes and stretch, do a little Tai chi, etc I'd be fine. But that's not the nature of obsessin is it?

9:25 pm

lbdawger

Thanks Eva...it got a bit confusing with the earlier reports and stats...145, then 147, then EEEEKKK! well, i'm 4 short and my brain is mush. gonna have to be good enough for tonight. Thanks again.
