Debs40ish

el/7 = A substance used as a solvent in separating materials in elution

12:52 am

Griffums

Oh. Thanks for saying that sprite - 2 more words!

12:52 am

sprite

I must be more decent than I realised... all I see are perfectly unnaughty ones, lol.

12:53 am

aling5

I found a body part, a person known for using said body part, and half a book on how to use said body part!

12:53 am

Griffums

Ooo, thanks for that last one!

12:54 am

mamabear

half a book???? i think I missed that one. care to elaborate?

12:54 am

CrysAnnMarie

aling- what letter does the book start with?

12:54 am

sprite

*half a book* what a wonderful clue!
Found them all... so much for decentness :)

12:54 am

Griffums

Sprite, you remember that CL word the other day that it wouldn't let us use. Let's just say that Babble has become much more open minded since then.

12:55 am

micamonkey

oo thanks for the last one too

12:55 am

CrysAnnMarie

aling- what letter does the book start with?

12:55 am

sprite

Open somethinged anyway, Griffs ;)

12:56 am

aling5

It's the second "half" of the book: s5/12

12:56 am

CrysAnnMarie

NEVERMIND!

12:56 am

Griffums

12:58 am

bodkinz

12:58 am

CrysAnnMarie

mambear- think a book of positions

12:59 am

GreyWoulf

sprite - you wouldn't believe it --- my daughter actually woke up around nine but kept herself amused until 11:30 this AM --- she must have known how late we were gabbing yesterday

12:59 am

sprite

MAMA, the book starts with K, but that's the half that's not here. For some parts of the book you have to be more than athletic.

1:00 am

sprite

GreyWoulf, what a wonderful child! Bless her for being so considerate and understanding towards babble addicted dad!

1:00 am

GreyWoulf

I noticed some of the naughtiness as I was taking my break, but had no clue to the depths of the depravity until I just read the log!

1:00 am

Schroeder

Hi everyone...I'm baaaack!!!

1:00 am

Griffums

Hi Schroeder!

1:01 am

mamabear

1:01 am

GreyWoulf

1:01 am

Griffums

Oh mamabear, the mind boggles with a straight line that one...

1:01 am

sprite

wb Schroeder!
I don't seem to be able to get out of that lower right corner, what a lot of words there!

1:01 am

GreyWoulf

Welcome back Schroeder - I finished with 5 min to spare

How was class? btw, what subject?

1:02 am

Griffums

(a straight line LIKE that one) oh never mind
Is it hot in here or is it just me?

1:02 am

mamabear

Hi Schroeder!!!! I'm so glad I don't have to go to work tomorrow - this one is worth staying up for!!

1:03 am

mamabear

Alright gang... I'm making an executive decision - I think this grid calls for the jacuzzi, what do ya say???

1:03 am

Schroeder

1:04 am

Griffums

1:05 am

Griffums

1:05 am

sprite

*brings out tray with cold, glazed over cocktails to choose from*

1:05 am

micamonkey

any clue on the UN 5/12 and 6/21? :(

1:06 am

mamabear

GW - wonderful - we will use your jacuzzi tonite!!! Will it hold all of us?

1:06 am

GreyWoulf

I'm sticking with my Guinness... I love a drink that doubles as a meal ;)

1:06 am

Griffums

Oh! Guinness! My favorite! I'm trading in my tequila for a Black and Tan!

1:07 am

mamabear

GW - LOL!!!!!

1:07 am

sprite

Can I join you for the Guinness, GreyWoulf? I haven't had breakfast yet and my last Guinness is about 5 years ago!

1:07 am

mamabear

sprite - what time is it by you?

1:07 am

GreyWoulf

Of course it will MAMA -- it's yours!
I admit it was presuming upon our friendship, but I didn't think you would mind :D

1:08 am

sprite

8 am here!

1:08 am

aling5

It's what happens when you heat Jello. It u6/21. (Lame clue, I know. Kind of a lame word, too, IMHO.)

1:08 am

Griffums

No, that was a most excellent clue! Thanks!

1:08 am

GreyWoulf

certainly sprite, but why so long since your last one?

1:09 am

aling5

Or what you do to your alarm if you want to sleep in the next day.

1:09 am

micamonkey

yep it is an excellent clue. thanks :D
man i must be blind not to have seen that

1:09 am

mamabear

I think maybe too much wine over here - i'm not getting this jello clue or the alarm clock...

1:10 am

CrysAnnMarie

still not getting u6. . . i'm dense tonight. Help!

1:10 am

Griffums

Me either, especially since I was spending so much time in that corner. *blush*
(who am I kidding? I never blush!)

1:10 am

chiefexec

Just got sl4/5.For those of you who don't have it it is a women who is se@#$%^& promiscuous.

1:10 am

aling5

When you don'y put curlers in your hair it remains...

1:10 am

sprite

We spent our holidays in Ireland then and I fell for the drinks... Guinness and Smithwick, darn, did I drink a lot that holiday :)
But we have to drink them from cans here... not quite the same.

1:11 am

micamonkey

44 more words to go ...
think im going to take a break and cook lunch lol

1:12 am

onyx

this is a dirty puzzle, or is it the mind that is doing the puzzle?

1:12 am

GreyWoulf

I hear you, sprite -- that is why the only bars I like to go to here are the ones that have Guinness on tap

1:12 am

mamabear

Lunch? where the heck are you micamonkey?

1:12 am

CrysAnnMarie

1:14 am

CrysAnnMarie

mama- last 3 letters come before "spike!" in volleyball

1:14 am

sprite

I think there is a bar like that in Amsterdam, GreyWoulf... an Irish bar. You put me in the right mood to try that!

1:14 am

aling5

Yep. Perm clue is for u5/12.

1:14 am

mamabear

GreyWoulf

G'nite Crys

1:18 am

Griffums

Mamabear, I can tell you that the third one is even more stupid than the other two. (That's not a clue, that's a fact.)

1:19 am

mamabear

g'nite CrysAnn - sweet dreeeeemmmmmmzzzzzzzz oh wait, you are going back to work.... damn these time zones! Have a good day!

1:19 am

1:20 am

Griffums

Who's pouring? I got nothin' here but foam...

1:20 am

mamabear

you're right Griff, a stupid word. I think GW is pouring.... GW????? GW????? you out there????

1:21 am

sprite

*pours a good one for Griffs*
MAMA, if I make my own clothes and I do it wrong, I could try and U5/20 them.

1:21 am

sprite

But, ofcourse, past tense then. Sigh.

1:21 am

GreyWoulf

Sorry, Griffums, I have been remiss in my job as cohost
(*sets up another drink*)

1:22 am

GreyWoulf

There you go, Griff - two for one

thanks for getting my back, sprite

1:22 am

mamabear

I got it sprite.... I swear that is not really a word.

1:22 am

Griffums

Luckily I have two hands.

1:23 am

sprite

Anytime, GreyWoulf!
Griffs, I believe you have a drinking problem now. Two hands, and only one mouth.

1:23 am

micamonkey

any clue for en 7/36?

1:23 am

Griffums

I don't know what to say to that, sprite, other than to say if I showed that to anyone who knows me in the real world, they would just laugh, and laugh...

1:25 am

sprite

:)
If I go and try to make 'extra' one more time, I swear I will hit myself over the head with something hard and heavy!

1:25 am

mamabear

Ok all together now - find the wo 4/11!!!!

1:25 am

GreyWoulf

you too sprite -- tell you what you do me and I'll do you (lol)

1:26 am

Griffums

Tell me FOOEE is not a word!

1:26 am

micamonkey

oops got it

1:26 am

micamonkey

mama, one of them is the sound a dog makes

1:26 am

Griffums

Oh mamabear, I was so embarrassed how long it took me to get the wo 4/11. It's what my icon says.

1:26 am

mamabear

Ok. Fooee is not a word.

1:27 am

sprite

LOL GreyWoulf. Deal!
Griffs, FOOEE is a word. But for babble it should be spelled FUI... and that's too short to count.

1:27 am

micamonkey

i cant get the 2nd WO 4/8 though

1:28 am

mamabear

how could I miss that? I have 2 dogs!!!!! I should be spanked. (gw?)

1:28 am

sprite

Go down, micamonkey :)
Or it might hurt.

1:28 am

mamabear

mica - 2nd wo is "oh w** is me.." with an s on the end

1:28 am

Griffums

I am SO GLAD that I got in this jacuzzi. Drinking and doing and spanking, oh my!

1:28 am

sprite

*hands GreyWoulf a paddle - or do you prefer bare hands?*

1:28 am

GreyWoulf

I'm not into public displays, MAMA

1:29 am

onyx

naughty naughty sprite, gw

1:29 am

mamabear

Who said anything about public?

1:29 am

GreyWoulf

But let me switch to some amaretto and we'll see what happens...

1:29 am

micamonkey

how many wo 4/8 are there? <_<
coz i already got that :|

1:30 am

onyx

amaretto ang guiness????!!!

1:30 am

mamabear

You drink..... I'll wait..... I'll look for words - what a novel idea!

1:30 am

GreyWoulf

preference is determined by partner

1:30 am

micamonkey

oops my bad O_O" i thought there are 2 wo 4/8

1:30 am

sprite

Micamonkey: very smallies.

1:30 am

mamabear

only 2 wo's

1:30 am

GreyWoulf

onyx -- not together, and look I'll have a snack first

1:31 am

mamabear

anybody want to look for the 2 yo"s with me? a yo 4/10 and yo 5/22

1:32 am

Griffums

Mamabear, I can tell you that they're both really stupid.

1:32 am

Schroeder

*Pours GW amaretto*

1:32 am

onyx

gw
what does one snack on, guinees is like eating a meal, a heavy one

1:32 am

sprite

That's the right way to go about it, GreyWoulf. And if you drink a glass of water now and again, you'll never suffer from hangovers either :)

1:32 am

mamabear

You're right. I got em.

1:32 am

Griffums

Well what's the fun in that sprite?

1:33 am

Griffums

*smashes can on forehead*
*smashes heavy glass on forehead, regrets it*

1:34 am

GreyWoulf

I'll improvise, onyx
Lord knows I've done it before

Thank you Schroeder

My, but this grid is bringing out the worst (best?) of us this evening/morning/whatever

1:34 am

sprite

Drinking as much as you like without hangovers? Well, it may be just me, but I like it :)
MAMA: the Ys are another spelling of the woolly E4/8.

1:35 am

mamabear

you are absolutely correct, sprite!!!
Hey GW - that jacuzzi full yet? I'm getting a little chilly over here.

1:35 am

micamonkey

i need my last te 5/10
i got the 2 plurals already
i promise i'll go get lunch after this :S lol

1:36 am

Griffums

I suppose you're right, sprite, but sometimes I just wanna commit to the consequences.

1:37 am

GreyWoulf

Let me check.... yep
Water's full, and temp is just right
good thing we're together, a person could fall asleep in this water otherwise

1:37 am

sprite

Griffs... remember your question about the FUI thing? Try C and C what happens.

1:38 am

mamabear

Let me just see... *mama dips toe in water and swishes it around..... ahhh... perfect.... slips into water .... sheer bliss!*

1:38 am

Griffums

I had that one already and was trying to make something naughty out of it...

1:39 am

GreyWoulf

sprite -- and it plurals too!!!!

1:39 am

sprite

Small wonder no new starter every finishes a grid... you have to be brainwashed by babble a lot before you find words like that :)

1:39 am

sprite

Yes, it does, GreyWoulf! Stupid, isn't it?

1:40 am

Griffums

It is. Stupid! Stupid, stupid, stupid words.
I need a drink.

1:40 am

GreyWoulf

Language is such a twisted invention
(*shakes head in amazement*)

1:40 am

GreyWoulf

It had to be created by a committee (language that is)

1:41 am

sprite

Are all biggies accounted for yet, or should I list them?

2:17 am

mamabear

Oh. Duh.

Schroeder

Mamabear your not making more bubbles in the jacuzzi are you ???

2:26 am

GreyWoulf

I found my last 7 and now must leave you all... I really don't want to leave such a great group of people, but familial responsibility must win out -- I promised a certain 2 year old a walk in the park

2:26 am

mamabear

chief - it had nothing to do with the puzzle. Apparently nobody else ever played the board game Clue.... so my cunning humor was lost....

2:27 am

Griffums

Bye GW - thanks for being a most excellent tubby pal!

2:27 am

sprite

She deserves it, and you, GreyWoulf. Enjoy, and thanks for your wonderful company again.

5:06 am

tbear

thx Miyavi :)

5:06 am

Miyavi_fan

Thanks Haz, I'll try that but when I'm staring at a row of equations to be rearranged, everything else tends to drop out of my head...

5:08 am

Haz1558

Oh, I was hopeless at maths. Give me words any day. My attempt at Additional Maths O level consisted of me writing my name, apologising to the examiner that I couldn't answer any of the questions, but here's the kinematic equations I had learned. I failed...

5:09 am

tbear

maths...maths...isn't that what you use to make sure Tescos has taken off the offer you went for??

5:11 am

Miyavi_fan

Ouch...I get a nasty feeling you may have just predicted my future. I can't even add up the babble points accurately

5:11 am

Haz1558

I don't even look at the offers in Tesco's... I want to get out of there. Having said all that about maths, I do have a reasonable grounding in mental arithmetic, thanks to the days of rhyming off multiplication tables. It's when it's all theoretical that I lose interest.

5:12 am

Miyavi_fan

With me it's the other way round - when there's a logical theory to follow, I can do it, but as soon as common sense comes in...urgh...

5:16 am

Haz1558

My younger daughter (now 18) has inherited my dislike of maths. She confesses that when she read maths papers beginning, for example, 'John went to the shop to buy so many metres of wood', she spent more time thinking about what he was going to make than about how much it would cost etc. She managed to get an A in her GCSE though..

5:18 am

Miyavi_fan

Wow...the thought of how much studying (and praying, moaning, bribing) I'd have to put in to get an A makes me feel queasy

5:22 am

Haz1558

Miy - I confess that we did get her some tutoring because it was important that she get a good grade in order to get back to do A-level. She's now in her first year at Edinburgh University and I miss her!

5:24 am

The Happy 1

wo4/11 ne 1?

5:25 am

Haz1558

Think dogs

5:25 am

Miyavi_fan

Wow, I heard Edinburgh was really hard to get into.

5:25 am

The Happy 1

opps just got it

5:27 am

Haz1558

She did very well in her A-levels! I went to Edinburgh myself which is where I met my husband, so it didn't feel quite so awful leaving her there because we knew that it was a great place to be.

5:29 am

tbear

Haz...keep telling mine they will enjoy the University of Tescos if they don't knuckle down to work...14 and 16...girls!!!

5:29 am

Miyavi_fan

Cool! I have no idea where I want to go or what I want to do yet.

5:30 am

Haz1558

Miy - just keep enjoying learning. You've still got plenty of time to make decisions like that. Fiona's alternative career plan was to be a personal shopper...

5:32 am

Haz1558

Tbear - I sympathise with you! I have two daughters as well, but thankfully they've both been okay about studying. I think they have a strong competitive streak and don't want to lag behind their friends or each other.

5:33 am

M3

How many words today please? x

5:34 am

Haz1558

Right, I must go. Miy - do you have the co5/12 and co 6/21. Lots of vowels and used to attract attention.

5:37 am

tbear

Wish i could just show them HOW much time they'll have for fun if they're earning enough to do what they want!! Old head,new shoulders...just frustrates me when they'll spend hours on hair,makeup and clothes and then whizz thru an essay in 10 mins...Right I've had my moan..I'll shush now LOL

5:38 am

6:59 am

sherb

afternoon all :)

back to practice Babble without a2zwordfinder...it's strange...

7:01 am

Miyavi_fan

Hey Sherb :) I can't get my head around a2z. Way too many words in there

7:03 am

sherb

hey Miyavi :)

7:03 am

Miyavi_fan

I think I just missed you this morning, so how are you?

7:06 am

sherb

Feeling tired...been working hard. My eyes are drooping at 1.00 in the afternoon...must need a nap!

And how are you?

7:06 am

Miyavi_fan

Fine thanks...have got a song in my head that's bugging me, but apart from that I'm good!

7:07 am

bbnaz

good morning to all

7:08 am

Miyavi_fan

Morning, Bbnaz...

morning? *checks flag*

7:08 am

sherb

hi bbnaz :)

7:08 am

mu

Hi everyone. Re AtoZ, must admit I still resort to it when all else has failed, but am using it much less now than when I first started playing. Really chuffed today.... found the eight letter word on my own. Brandyjack's stats are my utter bible. I always miss some little words without them.

7:08 am

bbnaz

6 in the am here

7:10 am

Miyavi_fan

6? Ouch...my alarm decided, just for fun, to wake me up at 4 this morning...I swear it has a life of its own

7:10 am

mu

Break for lunch bye.

7:11 am

sherb

hi mu, bye mu :) yeah, it's different without a2z, and BJ's stats, making me look harder for words, like when I first started playing

7:16 am

Miyavi_fan

Gah! I'd better be off...have some equations to rearrange *whimpers* Good luck everyone

7:18 am

sherb

bye Miyavi :) courage!

7:32 am

SJW

el5/12 (not obvious democratic one), el 6/21 and el7/32 - any clues please?

7:35 am

sherb

SJW - there's an el5/12 meaning 'to extract', sounds like what the Pied Piper played ;) and it's plural the 6/21

7:37 am

SJW

thanx Sherbx

7:38 am

sherb

but I don't have the el7/32...

7:41 am

*snork; rubbing eyes* Good morning here. Howdy to all!

7:42 am

Hi Sherb, you're sounding chipper!

7:44 am

sherb

sounding better than I feel, in that case...been a hard week for me...Babbling for some relaxation :)

7:48 am

Deutsch

relax away, sherb. You deserve it. We all do!

7:51 am

Deutsch

I'm awake now! I can't belive it allowed one of George Carlin's 7 dirty words AND its plural!

7:53 am

sherb

Deutsch - I don't know who George Carlin is, but I think I can guess the word you mean!

7:53 am

Dachef

Hi guys!!!

Deutsch - yeh, I didnt bother trying that for about an hour cos i thought, no chance, but when i finally tried it, it worked?!?!?

7:54 am

Carly385057

any clues on the second ce 4/5

7:55 am

sherb

sorry Carly - one got one...the letters...

7:56 am

Deutsch

Ha ha, sherb, I bet you can. George Carlin is a comedian over here who once did a skit on the 7 dirty words you can't say on TV.

7:56 am

baggo

morning all or evening, afternoon....awww just hello!!!

7:56 am

sherb

and as I say that, I just found another one...sounds like the French for salts ;)

7:57 am

Deutsch

Hi Baggo and Dachef.

7:57 am

joelgee

good a.m.
Deutsh. Coulda sworn I tried that in a previous puzzle without it working. Hate the word. Almost ashamed to use it. Personal peeve.

7:57 am

Atalante

joel - yeah, I'm sure it didn't used to work either!

7:57 am

aknitter

carly --- ce 4/5 no definition but think biology ant then shorten it

7:58 am

joelgee

wonder if fest works yet. Any takers?

7:58 am

Atalante

that would be nice!

7:58 am

Deutsch

Hi Joelgee,Yes, it's a vulgar word. Sorry to have brouht it up.
I left last night with 27 to go. Just couldn't take any more

7:58 am

sherb

hi Baggo, joel, Atalante, Dachef :) cool icons today :)

7:58 am

baggo

i just reread the post...actually it was one of my first words cause i remembered we could use it...hate it too joel... real def though, other than the slang is to have sexual intercourse with a woman...but why not a man?

7:59 am

aknitter

any ar clues

7:59 am

Deutsch

odd isn't it, but the co 4 10 is back!

8:00 am

joelgee

it's just a visceral thing to me. Ugly and hateful when used in its vulgar, slang, descriptive manner.

8:01 am

Deutsch

Joelgee, is the single candle significant? It's lovely!

8:01 am

joelgee

Deutsch--
noticed that before w/other words. I just say thanks and type'em in.
Random is random. How about the Greek cheese that showed up daily for awhile?

8:02 am

joelgee

Two reasons for the candle:
1. It's the wickend
2. I feel like waxing poetic and philosophical

8:03 am

baggo

joel i love your wit!!!!!!!!

8:03 am

Deutsch

Joelgee, Yes! about the greek cheese. and Good for you about waxing poetic!

8:04 am

sherb

17 words left to find...and I have to go do non-Babble things again...back later...

8:05 am

Dachef

waxing poetic? Good, we could do with a bit of culture around here. Normally, the closest we get to culture in Bournemouth is if somone leaves a yoghurt outside in the sun.

8:05 am

baggo

see ya sherb!!

8:05 am

Deutsch

Today is Guy Fawks Day. does one say happy Guy Fawks day?

8:05 am

Oh, sherb, I barely have 17. You go!

8:05 am

Jo

What happened to Anj and Lola? Have they run off together? LOL

8:06 am

Bobsta

deustch: no, we say 'don't blow your hand off' :)

8:06 am

joelgee

I just wondered if that's why Dumbledore's Phoenix is named Fawkes.

8:06 am

Deutsch

Hi Jo, Lola is away for the weekend. She'll be back Monday.

8:07 am

Jo

LOL, could help myself!! :-)

8:07 am

joelgee

lola posted that she was going to be away this weekend. Haven't seen much of Anj since last Saturday.

8:07 am

Dachef

Deutsch - no, usually one says things along the lines of: "put that bl**dy rocket down uncle jack's trousers!", "Im sure I nailed that catherine wheel to the board properly", "who let auntie jean near the sparklers again? She's eaten the lot", and, of course, "so when did the fire brigade say they'll be here?"

8:07 am

baggo

lola gone for weekend...anj, is busy, not sure if he would have time...

8:08 am

Jo

Hmmm .. perhaps I'm right..... ;-)

8:08 am

Deutsch

Hi bobsta, thanks and don't blow your hand off!
Joel, Interesting thought. makes sense once I think about it.

8:08 am

aknitter

ar 6/118 anyone?

8:09 am

joelgee

there's an ar6/118. Yeah! I want the clue for that one.

8:09 am

8:10 am

8:11 am

shorty

I wish there was too

8:11 am

joelgee

oddly, not the 1st time I've been called a smart as

8:11 am

shorty

i know you was j/k

8:12 am

baggo

okay here is the freaky babble words of the day!!
co5/12 and co6/21
A peculiar cry uttered by the Australian aborigines as a call to attract attention, and also in common use among the Australian colonists

8:12 am

Deutsch

Thanks, Dachef! Will you be hosting friends and jack and jean? (I'll call the fire brigade for you)

8:12 am

baggo

no i meant to say i'm being a smart as...not you me!

8:12 am

Atalante

those 2 words are brilliant - very useful in babble if nowhere else!

8:12 am

Deutsch

Where's nordina when we need her?

8:12 am

joelgee

baggo--
thanks. You wrote it. I saw it.

8:16 am

If you're ever lost in the outback, now you know what to yell.

8:16 am

joelgee

Babble may have just saved your life!

8:16 am

Deutsch

My pledge is to use the co word today.

8:17 am

Atalante

"HELP" has always worked in the past LOL. Mind you, I've only been lost in the outback once. And my cousin was in yelling distance. He was busy studying a goanna while I managed to fall down a big slope LOL

8:20 am

Good jackets, but I still don't know what I did. Any clarity, please?

8:59 am

baggo

i think it's an attempt to rile up the log!!! it was quiet and not it's going again!

9:00 am

Atalante

calling someone a smart a** isnt exactly an insult .... my husband calls me it all the time when I'm being suitably irritating LOL

9:00 am

baggo

Jackets that was me and i was calling myself one, if you read further down the log i explained that!

Dachef

groovtgranny - your icon reminds me of a joke:
a man breaks down on a country road and asks the local farmer if he can tow him to the garage. But the farmer says that the only thing he can do is lend the motorist his giant chicken - that should be able to tow his car. But, as the giant chicken approaches the garage with the car in tow, the rope breaks and the giant chicken runs away. The mechanic comes out and opens the bonnet, takes one look and says "ah, I see the problem - your big hens gone".

10:15 am

Miyavi_fan

Liana! *has mini laughing fit*
Groovy, some girls in my old form. I had the cheek to walk past them in the corridors, so I got pushed into the lockers and called "a f*cking little c---". Not nice people.

10:20 am

Miyavi_fan

Yeah, the ones in my school are mean but don't really do anything. I mean, if you get on the wrong side of them you get a bit of shoving around and called some names, but that's it. Then they wonder why I laugh at them and walk off

10:20 am

groovygranny

Speed I wondered who was yellling lol

10:21 am

mo

M ary think of animal with flippers but alter one of the vowels

10:21 am

DarleenMB

Well, with a name like THAT Sharon's gotta have a wicked sense of humor.

10:21 am

groovygranny

Mi , it's because you are way more mature than they are

10:23 am

speedfreak

Morning Art Lady:)

10:23 am

Jen

Sarcasm works so much better than name calling anyway. It's much more subtle and usually the idiot doesn't realize they are getting slammed. My high school friends (yes, I actually keep in touch with one, 15 years out) and I joke that we actually had a HS class on perfecting sarcasm.

10:24 am

mo

Mary sorry the one you want ....100 of these equals 1 loti

10:24 am

groovygranny

I have ten to go, so I'm good. I think yesterday's puzzle put my brain into a different mode, with the words jumping at me from everywhere.

1:05 pm

harpjane

Today is pay day, so I am going to go pro, I think!

1:05 pm

Miyavi_fan

Liana, that joke really shouldn't amuse me as much as it does! Hi everyone :)

1:05 pm

HEAT

1:05 pm

joelgee

sure. stop on by, shorty.

1:05 pm

shorty

ok

1:06 pm

Miyavi_fan

Yay! Harpjane, go pro! Go pro! Go go go pro!

1:06 pm

shorty

but once you see me you'll puke

1:06 pm

joelgee

that's funny, lk.
Friend of mine made up a joke:
A rabbi, a priest, and a minister all walk into a bar. Bartender says, "What is this, some kind of a joke?"

1:06 pm

lianakate

LOL, miyavi..me either..I just laughed about it every time i thought of it..One of my good friends back home found a pin for a jacket..with this real long face..LMAO..ooooooh, i miss her..what a hoot.

1:07 pm

harpjane

miyavi--Is that a Swiss flag? Where do you live?

1:07 pm

lianakate

Ha..joel..Dry, droll, etc.

1:07 pm

kristin

1:07 pm

Miyavi_fan

The only jokes I know are usually dirty or very, very lame. Like my famous sausage joke

1:07 pm

joelgee

Yeah, but once you puke, then everything feels better. Are you in MI, Shorty?

1:07 pm

lianakate

Ohio's not my rival. When I graduated, I actually left school.

1:09 pm

harpjane

on the SO's: try to find a muscle in your calf, 5/12, then work forward and backward from there.

1:09 pm

Miyavi_fan

Ah, the old sausage joke...may not be funny (in fact it really, really isn't) but it still cracks me up...

1:09 pm

joelgee

mammabear--
How's it going?

1:10 pm

Say, miyavi_fan, I'd really like to hear(?) the sausage joke.

1:11 pm

Miyavi_fan

Okay, Joel, but don't say I didn't warn you how lame it was. There are two sausages in a frying pan, and one says to the other "cor! getting a bit hot in here!" and the other goes "blimey! A talking sausage!"

1:11 pm

lianakate

shorty..lol~!!!!

1:12 pm

lianakate

Miya..LMAO..i love it~

1:12 pm

1:12 pm

Miyavi_fan

Liana, so do I, I just don't know why! I think it's the image of those two little sausages...

You should join the Yahoo Harplist if you're not on it. It is ABSOLUTELY the best way to keep in touch with the harp world.

This is for the "Bears". Old, bad joke. Sounds like Tbear could use a little chuckle.
A bear goes into a bar and says to the bartender "I would like a .............................. ...................
beer please." The bartender gets him the beer & says "Hey Buddy, what's with the big pause." The bear looks down & says "Dunno. I've always had them. Guess I got them from my father."
Sorry!

6:32 pm

add the first part of tu4/5
and add lo4 to the end.
it ends in the same thing as sucra****

6:32 pm

pezzie

Having small bristles

6:33 pm

Deutsch

It just tells you how many words that letter begins in the puzzle. Then it goes dark when you have found them all. The grid stat confused me too. The need help with stats helped a little.

6:33 pm

Jo

Sadly, Granny...the grid doesn't show second letter. But, Babbler's Anonymous does. There is a link to it on the far right of this page. Its under General/Stats

6:34 pm

nenaluli

I wish babble made a special noise when you get all the words :) It would make victory sweeter.

6:34 pm

groovygranny

ok then under stats it's there right???

6:34 pm

mamabear

groovy - the stat list tells you how many words start with each letter on the grid and how many you have. also how many words of each letter count. To get the 2 letter list - click on Babblers anonymous onthe right, then on General and Today's puzzle. scroll down and voila! there it is! I copy and paste it into an Ecel doc and print it so I can cross off the words as I find them... and is that a very large chicken or are you just happy to see me?

6:34 pm

nenaluli

Man. Compared with the 288 and 300+ words we've been getting, this was a piece of cake.

6:34 pm

Jo

Congratluations, nenaluli !! We all wish, I think Dr_G-d is working on somtin.

6:35 pm

Deutsch

Cool, nena. But not just a noise; music to dance to! LOL *twirls about the room again*

momofadam

6:36 pm

periwinkle

testing again

6:36 pm

nenaluli

What I do is I put them in a word document, then type in the words as I get them. That way, when people give clues that involve searching for other words, it's much easier than to scroll all the way down and miss the chat. It also makes it easier to give clues to other people, imho.

6:37 pm

mamabear

yo word - y + if you need to pay back money to someone you o** him... and its plural

6:37 pm

Deutsch

Peri, you're pink!

Need middle cu's after the plural bad word...

7:37 pm

bbnaz

st6/18 is a word for metal made with iron........then pluralized

you can then take that same word and take the second vowel, flip it with the final consonant and pluralize it too. sounds just the same as the first word

7:37 pm

bbnaz

temple........that baby sure is cu**
then plural it

7:38 pm

groovygranny

thanks !!

7:38 pm

72 Temple Owl

st 6/18 a very hard metal plural of st5/10 OR acrable that word plural of the other 5/10

GreyWoulf

I have never used that word in my life, Folks

9:58 pm

groovygranny

9:58 pm

harpjane

10:05 pm

mamabear

agreed on the c word. amazing how that is allowed today, but yesterday "fest" was not!!!!!

10:06 pm

Minski

fest is never accepted as a word and it just doesn't make sense to me. the dictionary this game works from is a bit strange.

10:06 pm

torgone

The last te4/4 for starters . .

10:06 pm

GreyWoulf

Who controls the Enable dictionary? Maybe there is a way to request updates?

10:06 pm

Smeltzdog

This is a long weekend. Just today I was at a conference most of the day for 1000 high school students. I was just supposed to do an improv show this morning but ended up running lights, video projection, toggle between shots, taking pictures and shoting stock footage for our promo videos in the fall. It has been great to come here and relax and laugh.

Thanks!

10:11 pm

GreyWoulf

Good Luck, Minski

GreyWoulf

MAMA - what time do you have to be up tomorrow?

10:15 pm

mamabear

I am confyoused!!!!! It is 10:00 here and the puzzle usually changes at midnite. But the clock on the grid says 1 hour is left. is this due to time change? is there 1 hour left or 2?????

10:15 pm

groovygranny

Tor let me tell you ... her hubby was umeployed and desperate for a job , hubby got him one and he talked behind his back left and right , bad mouthed him , got him fired ...... to top it off she used my name in a lie !!! and we had known them 15 yrs .. our kids grew up together , we spent holidays together !

10:16 pm

groovygranny

I don't know how you can treat your friends so horribly !! I was blown away

10:16 pm

Smeltzdog

mama - you must be sleepy. 1+ just means it's less than two hours.

10:16 pm

torgone

Sometimes the worst words are appropriate . .

10:16 pm

GreyWoulf

MAMA - it says 1+ hours, more than 1 but less than 2

10:17 pm

lshult

how many words using x?

10:17 pm

mamabear

Depends on if I go to early church service or late. Neither choir I sing in is singing tomorrow so I have an option ....

10:17 pm

groovygranny

live and learn I guess ... but I always say when you aren't righteous with people it comes back at you

10:17 pm

GreyWoulf

groovy - that is definitely a time where you were justified in your choice of words!

10:18 pm

groovygranny

When I have been betrayed by "friends" I consider it an end to the relationship. It really doesn't matter at that point, how it ends, as long as it ends. You get your words in, you leave with you dignity, you go on with your life.

10:22 pm

10:29 pm

Smeltzdog

good evening saphyre, DeQuyetOne and ruff

10:29 pm

saphyre

busy - went out looking for a new car - mine was totaled 2 weeks ago - got hit by a truck

10:29 pm

torgone

Couple of tu's. Sort it out in a bit . .

10:29 pm

ruffh2o

yes, woof, done with jury duty. phew! I take back anything that I said about them not wanting an educated woman on the jury.

10:30 pm

k-dawg

what type of car did you get

10:30 pm

Smeltzdog

ruff - if you had an icon what would it be?

10:30 pm

mamabear

e 7 - when someone speaks a language very well. they are said to be f***** in it. change the f to an e and pluralize it

10:30 pm

ruffh2o

ouch, saph.

10:30 pm

GreyWoulf

DaQwyetOne - do you know how to get the word list from bab anon?

Ishult - a translator is fl**** in multiple languages, chanfge the f to an e and pluralise

10:30 pm

saphyre

10:31 pm

ruffh2o

hmm. thinking.

10:31 pm

k-dawg

cool

10:31 pm

DaQwyetOne

Grey, i've pulled up the stats. Is that what you are talking about?

10:31 pm

mamabear

GW - read your e 7 clue and then read mine..... amazing aint it?

10:31 pm

Smeltzdog

Saphyre - its fun to get checks in the mail!

10:31 pm

saphyre

had a miata but at 15 mph getting hit and having the car totalled was a bit scary

10:31 pm

GreyWoulf

DaQwyetOne - yep, that's the 1st key step

10:32 pm

ruffh2o

a quantum duck. quark, quark.

10:32 pm

lshult

91 down, but need to start work soon. at least i want to get e7 before i go. any clues, please?

10:32 pm

k-dawg

i bet it was scary

10:32 pm

torgone

My tu's start thus: Any of several bulrushes of the genus Scirpus, growing in marshy lowlands of the southwest United States.

10:33 pm

mamabear

I have been in 2 accidents where my car was totaled. saphyre. you have my sympathy. I hope the mental images go away quickly for you soon.

10:33 pm

k-dawg

i agree with mamabear

10:33 pm

mamabear

Ishult - scroll down, both Grey Woulf and I gave you clues on that e 7

10:33 pm

ruffh2o

smeltz - I don't know how to find a picture of a quantum duck.

10:33 pm

GreyWoulf

After the rushes comes the
tu4 - a musical tu**
tu5 - pluralise
tu4 - wine is stored in tu** (pl)

10:34 pm

mamabear

torgone - say what?

10:34 pm

DaQwyetOne

i only have one u word (to take apart a garment), any clues for the others? btw, it took me an hour to get the speak a foreign language clue. So, I need some easy clues...lol

10:35 pm

Smeltzdog

Here's to you ruff!

10:36 pm

GreyWoulf

DaQwyetOne - if you put away the place setting after you *** the table, you have un*** the table

10:36 pm

mamabear

DaQwyetOne - if you are going to eat a meal, you *** the table ... if you remove the dishes, you un*** the table. add an s to that and you have another u word

10:36 pm

ruffh2o

so, have we reached an agreement on the jello?

10:36 pm

torgone

Never mind . .Mamabear. When I finally LOOKED at it, it was an easy word.

10:36 pm

k-dawg

i don't know yet

10:36 pm

GreyWoulf

MAMA - I'm getting scared...hold me

10:36 pm

ruffh2o

mama - why r u orange?

10:37 pm

mamabear

alrighty then.
and don't make the jello orange on my account.... I don't mind looking tie-died!

10:37 pm

Smeltzdog

ruff - google it

10:37 pm

DaQwyetOne

THANK YOU Mammabear

10:37 pm

GreyWoulf

Besides MAMA is dangerous enough without giving her an unfair advantage

10:37 pm

ruffh2o

(hugs wolf)

10:38 pm

Smeltzdog

I don't want to lose mama in the jacuzzi so we should probably go with the blue. That and it tastes better.

10:38 pm

GreyWoulf

(*wink*) :D

10:38 pm

mamabear

GW - of course I will hold you *mamabear pulls GW very closely to her bo*** - gently rocking* - why are you scared?
Ruff - I am orange because Smeltzdog left me alone in a carrot souffle jacuzzi for hours this afternoon and forgot about me....

10:38 pm

torgone

Whoop-de-cr4/?! finished this stinker!

10:38 pm

saphyre

i need to get busy on this grid 60 to go

10:38 pm

lshult

thanks guys, chat so fast and furious this morning that i didn't even notice my first request let alone your replies. oh, by the way "got it"!

10:39 pm

GreyWoulf

MAMA - did you not notice our second set of hints and their similarity

10:39 pm

ruffh2o

(picturing blue & orange mama)

10:40 pm

GreyWoulf

Yay Torgone!

10:40 pm

mamabear

GW - yes - scroll down - you missed my post where I inferred the exact same thought. And why am I dangerous????

10:40 pm

ruffh2o

BRB - gotta find a funky nail polish color for k-dawg

10:40 pm

DaQwyetOne

any clue for the R word

10:40 pm

mamabear

GW - read my post at 10:31

10:41 pm

k-dawg

yep chose chrome color

10:41 pm

mamabear

torgone - there are no cr words...... what choo talkin about Willis?

10:41 pm

GreyWoulf

MAMA - I read that and then we did the same for the u clue as well!

10:42 pm

mamabear

r word.... r + what you live in - a ho*** - but remove the o and e

10:42 pm

Smeltzdog

ruff - here's how the story went. We were in the carrot souffle jacuzzi when mama left because the phone rang and she didn't care about me anymore. I waited while my buns soaked up the souffle (they're still orange too!) I waited for half an hour when GW came to my rescue and told me she wasn't coming back for a while. It doesn't seem to make much sense but Mama (even though I was gone) got back in the jacuzzi and waited for me. I take no blame for being abandoned by a big white...er...orange bear.

10:43 pm

ruffh2o

rofl

10:43 pm

torgone

There are no cr words today. I just needed a cr word in that case ..

10:43 pm

mamabear

GW - I'm sorry... I missed that u clue thing... is that why you were scared?????

10:44 pm

mamabear

oh, you mean like crap? LOL (sorry couldn't resist)

10:44 pm

GreyWoulf

No one told me we were in the jacuzzi earlier!

MAMA - yes, once is coincidence, twice is spooky

10:44 pm

ruffh2o

cray (supercomputer)

10:45 pm

torgone

Precisely, Mamabear!

10:45 pm

ruffh2o

damn, I missed being in the jacuzzi earlier.

10:45 pm

GreyWoulf

ruff - was the case anything worthwhile?

10:46 pm

GreyWoulf

DaQwyetOne -- how are you doing?

10:46 pm

mamabear

nice try Smeltzie.... but we both know the real story

10:47 pm

mamabear

I think we were in the jacuzzi while you were at the park with your daughter, GW.... you were there in thought though...

10:47 pm

k-dawg

what is the real story

10:47 pm

ruffh2o

Prostitution case. I actually enjoyed the process, played devil's advocate for awhile. It strikes me that it is very hard to reach a 'guilty' verdict in criminal court. 'Reasonable doubt' is so broad.

10:47 pm

ruffh2o

oops, I'm a broad...

10:48 pm

Smeltzdog

GW - please refer to exibit A

my comment 4:01
GW response 4:02

10:48 pm

torgone

I like broads . .

10:48 pm

GreyWoulf

I hear you, ruff... I was scheduled to report for jury duty on LI, but ended up moving 3 weeks before they called me, thus missing my chance

10:49 pm

k-dawg

i like blonde athletic boys

10:49 pm

mamabear

The court will take a brief recess while my paralegal goes back to review those files....

10:49 pm

GreyWoulf

My former housemate got calle dto serve on a grand jury -- that was interesting, he was hearing cases to determine whether they had the merit to make it to a judge

10:49 pm

ruffh2o

k-dawg would have liked that angel icon from yesterday.

10:50 pm

Smeltzdog

I AM RIGHT!!!

10:50 pm

ruffh2o

smeltz? aren't you always?

10:50 pm

k-dawg

hot stuff i really would have liked to see that picture

10:51 pm

Smeltzdog

ruff - it's good to know you have seen the light.

10:52 pm

ruffh2o

that's interesting, gw. I wonder what 'merits' a judge's attention.

10:52 pm

ruffh2o

mama has a paralegal?

10:53 pm

ruffh2o

(ruff, going toward the light)

10:54 pm

GreyWoulf

Smeltz, you are only half right -- It wasn't a half hour -- MAMA said she had to make a call at 3:49

10:54 pm

Smeltzdog

due to being right again...I thought I should dress up.

10:54 pm

k-dawg

random: has anyone seen any good movies lately

10:55 pm

mamabear

Upon review of aforementioned testimony, posts made at 4:01 and 4:02 do infact confirm the fact that one Mr. Smeltzie did inquire on the whereabouts of one Ms. Mamabear.... in humble apology, mamabear will be required to stay orange for a one week period. Case dismissed.

10:55 pm

GreyWoulf

k-dawg - saw Legend of Zorro -- it was OK, long on marital strife, short on action

10:55 pm

k-dawg

that sucks

10:56 pm

ruffh2o

k-dawg...what do you want to see, which is in theatres now?

10:56 pm

k-dawg

i saw that movie just like heaven

10:56 pm

GreyWoulf

I think 3 days is all that will be necessary, MAMA
Smeltz exaggerated - it was only 12 minutes before he inquired

10:56 pm

k-dawg

i want to see the corpse bride or roll bounce

10:56 pm

ruffh2o

My netflix queue is so long that I don't bother to see current movies!

10:57 pm

Smeltzdog

could the Dog assist anyone in finishing the puzzle or are we all just chatting?

10:57 pm

ruffh2o

yeah, dawg, but you missed the bar scene. :) That'll teach ya to answer your cell.

10:57 pm

mamabear

GW - your review of the Zorro movie sounds like it is based on my life story!!!!!

10:57 pm

k-dawg

i think we are all just talking

10:58 pm

torgone

Who needs what?

10:58 pm

k-dawg

i will go see the movie again and sit through the whole movie next time

10:58 pm

ruffh2o

oh, NOW you want to see corpse bride.

choice - beach tomorrow with dogs, or corpse bride.

10:58 pm

Smeltzdog

GW - it was 22 minutes but I waited until 5:00 more than 1 hour later.

10:58 pm

mamabear

torgone.... you really want to know????

10:58 pm

k-dawg

corpse bride the beack is so over rated. jkjk

10:59 pm

mamabear

Nice outfit Smeltzie. But don't you think it's time for you to "think outside the bun"

11:00 pm

GreyWoulf

ruff, my next door neighbors have so many movies that I want to borrow, not to mention anime, that I can't even consider netflix or going out!!

11:00 pm

ruffh2o

how about el7 & se8?

11:01 pm

ruffh2o

k-dawg. OK, ask your dad. here he comes.

11:01 pm

mamabear

el 7 - to speak a language very well, you are said to be fl**** in it. replace the f with an e and pluralize it

11:01 pm

GreyWoulf

e/6 &7 -a translator is fl**** in multiple languages, chanfge the f to an e and pluralise

11:02 pm

Smeltzdog

better (refresh)

11:02 pm

GreyWoulf

MAMA - you owe me a drink!!

11:02 pm

mamabear

se 8 - s** the table for dinner + not me but * (one vowel) + not win but l***

11:02 pm

k-dawg

dad says movie

11:02 pm

ruffh2o

yay!! k-dawg's dad agreed to a movie!!

11:03 pm

ruffh2o

aaagh!!! smeltz is naked!!

11:04 pm

GreyWoulf

ruff, what's your word count?

11:04 pm

Smeltzdog

it's mama's fault again. I was thinking outside the bun

11:04 pm

mamabear

Smeltzie - you are a knockwurst!!!!!!!

11:05 pm

k-dawg

hey ruff thanks for the doughnuts

11:05 pm

ruffh2o

I'm not playing, I'm helping k-dawg to establish her first score.

11:05 pm

mamabear

My pleasure GW, what'll it be?

11:05 pm

Smeltzdog

I make the world's best beer brat's

11:05 pm

ruffh2o

damned if krispy creme didn't have 1 dozen free...

11:06 pm

mamabear

You ARE the world's best beer brat!!!!!
Oh, and apparently you haven't heard Taco Bell commercials....

11:06 pm

GreyWoulf

Oh, then k-dawg, what's your word count?

11:06 pm

k-dawg

88 words

11:07 pm

ruffh2o

Last I looked, she was at 88. not bad for a first-timer.

11:07 pm

GreyWoulf

MAMA - I'll just have a glass of port tonight, Thx

11:07 pm

mamabear

Is everyone waiting til the new grid arrives on the midnite train???

11:08 pm

ruffh2o

yes, just waiting for the new grid. I'm not playing because I got started too late.

11:08 pm

GreyWoulf

Great job, k-dawg!
want any clues?

11:08 pm

mamabear

Then port it is... *mamabear pours glass of perfectly chilled port and hands to GW with a smile and a wink*

11:08 pm

k-dawg

if you have any

11:09 pm

GreyWoulf

What do you need, k-dawg?

11:10 pm

mamabear

there is really nasty thunder and lightening going on over here...

11:10 pm

GreyWoulf

Lucky!!!!

11:10 pm

k-dawg

ar 5/14

11:11 pm

GreyWoulf

ar5/14 - take the ar4, lose the o and replace with us

11:11 pm

ruffh2o

I don't like thunder & lightning.

11:12 pm

DaQwyetOne

okay, how do you know the first two letters (ar5/14)??

11:12 pm

k-dawg

thanks how about ce 5/12

11:12 pm

ruffh2o

(doing the snoopy happy-dance as k-dawg learns the babble lingo)

11:13 pm

GreyWoulf

I have always found thunderstorms to be invigorating

11:13 pm

mamabear

DaQwyetOne - over on the right there is a Friends of Babble box. Click on the last line "Babblers Anonymous" then click on General and today's puzzle. scroll down and there is a "2 letter list" that shows all the words in the puzzle by their first 2 letters, size and count

11:14 pm

DaQwyetOne

i have the stats, but it just tells me how many words begin with a single letter

11:14 pm

GreyWoulf

DaQwyetOne - click on the babblers anonymous link, then on the General topic, --> todays puzzle

11:14 pm

DaQwyetOne

Gotcha! Thank YOU!!!!

11:14 pm

ruffh2o

invigorating? how so? I love rain, but not storms.

11:14 pm

GreyWoulf

DaQwyetOne - sorry I misunderstood you before

11:14 pm

mamabear

co 5/12 - the sound a dove makes plus double vowel

11:15 pm

k-dawg

gotta love the storms not the rain

11:15 pm

k-dawg

thanx mamabear

11:16 pm

mamabear

I enjoy thunderstorms. and the rain on the windows.

11:16 pm

GreyWoulf

Something about the electricity in the air, just revs me up. To me a storm w/o thunder & lightning is boring and depressing

11:16 pm

Smeltzdog

It's supposed to thunderstorm here within the hour.

11:17 pm

mamabear

I agree..... again.

11:17 pm

DaQwyetOne

grey- no, you answered my original question too...lol

11:17 pm

ruffh2o

Q: What do get when you cross a chilli pepper, steam shovel, and a chihuahua?
A: A hot, diggety dog.

11:17 pm

mamabear

Smeltzie - then it must be moving eastward since I am in Illinois

11:17 pm

GreyWoulf

ouch!

11:17 pm

k-dawg

lol good one ruff

11:18 pm

Smeltzdog

living on a golf course, things are pretty open.

11:18 pm

mamabear

Boy do I have a comment for that one, Smeltzie!!!!!
Why OUCH, GW?

11:18 pm

ruffh2o

(especially smeltz's bun)

11:19 pm

GreyWoulf

good puns always hurt

11:19 pm

k-dawg

so true so true

11:19 pm

GreyWoulf

and bad ones hurt even more :D

11:20 pm

k-dawg

also true

11:21 pm

mamabear

Are you babblers waiting for the new grid?? GW? Smeltzie??? Ruff?????

11:21 pm

Smeltzdog

here I am trying to participate in the thunderstorm conversation when ruff and mama add these terrible comments. I for one know my buns are not wide open *struking head with blunt force trama to stop mental image*

11:21 pm

mamabear

That was not the comment I had in mind.......

11:21 pm

Smeltzdog

struking - striking
trama - trauma

11:22 pm

k-dawg

el 7/32 how about a definition

11:22 pm

Smeltzdog

what were you going to say mama.

11:22 pm

ruffh2o

(hands smeltz some mustard for his head)

11:22 pm

Smeltzdog

I am planning on staying on for a while to see what I can do.

11:23 pm

GreyWoulf

yes, I 'm waiting MAMA - I'll just have to step away for a bit like last night/this am

11:23 pm

DaQwyetOne

K-Dawg: A substance used as a solvent in separating materials in elution.

11:24 pm

mamabear

GW - REFRESH.. here's an icon just for you!

11:25 pm

ruffh2o

thanks, daq

11:25 pm

k-dawg

thank DaQwyetOne

11:25 pm

GreyWoulf

DaQwyetOne - how are you doing?

MAMA - I want a copy of that one

11:25 pm

mamabear

You said you were on a golf course... I was going to ask if it had anything to do with the "concession stand" on the 9th hole!!!!!

11:26 pm

mamabear

I can do that....

11:26 pm

DaQwyetOne

grey- i'm a disgruntled babbler right now...i'm just waiting for the next puzzle...lol

11:27 pm

mamabear

Do not be disgruntled..... DaQwyetone!!!!! Just have fun!

11:27 pm

ruffh2o

well, if we're all going to just wait here...
(jumps into jello)

11:27 pm

GreyWoulf

Daq - no need to be disgruntled, it's all about the fun of the game...
the hunt vs. the finish :)

11:28 pm

mamabear

Ok, now YOU owe ME a drink!!!!

11:28 pm

ruffh2o

the hunt is always much more fun, GW.

11:28 pm

DaQwyetOne

i plan to conquer the next puzzle!

11:29 pm

mamabear

GW - this is just past spooky. Right after I read your message that was like mine, a huge clap of lightening came right across the window where I am sitting.

11:29 pm

micamonkey

good afternoon all :)

11:29 pm

GreyWoulf

exactly, ruff, if you check back I think I've said the same thing almost every night for the past week

11:29 pm

mamabear

what color is the jello? I am discovering how hard it is to get food dye out of human flesh

11:30 pm

ruffh2o

I think that we decided to go with blue jell-o

11:30 pm

k-dawg

how about red jello

11:30 pm

GreyWoulf

Here, MAMA, (*Big Hug*) what are you drinking, and have a (*neck rub*)

11:31 pm

ruffh2o

(hands mama some berry blue jello to taste)

11:31 pm

GreyWoulf

Now Daq, that is the attitude we actively support and encourage around here.

11:32 pm

mamabear

Believe it or not, diet 7 Up...... oooohhh neck rub...... a little to the right..... yeah, that's it......

11:33 pm

ruffh2o

k-dawg just pulled the plug on the blue jello, and filled it with red. apparently, blue jello is 'nasty'.

11:33 pm

mamabear

hmmmm..... blue jello mighty tasty.... what the heck as long as I am orange already... what's a little more color? *SPLASH*..... HEY this is cold!!!! *jumps out splashing blue everywhere* ... hey Smeltzie - were you very attached to those white drapes on your windows?

11:33 pm

k-dawg

red jello is definatley better than blue jello

11:34 pm

ruffh2o

(handing smeltzie the bleach pen...)

11:34 pm

mamabear

I tend to disagree. blue is my favorite color.. in anything... including jello

11:34 pm

DaQwyetOne

why not just fill the jacuzzi with chocalate...can't go wrong there!

11:35 pm

mamabear

nice gesture, ruff, but he's gonna need more than a bleach pen for this mess!!!

11:35 pm

ruffh2o

imagine the chocolate stains on the curtains

11:35 pm

GreyWoulf

Chocolate gums up the pump after awhile

11:35 pm

k-dawg
