12:15 am

sprite

Hi zubie!
hurshy, what's the rub?

12:15 am

hurshy

i agreed to meet my student here - he's quite the night owl - and i can hardly see straight here, and he's not even around.

12:16 am

sprite

Tell us his name and go to sleep. We'll call him every name you tell us if he arrives ;)

12:17 am

hurshy

and ice boy is amazing. between tired and no brandyjack's list, this is not the best of times.

12:17 am

zubie

Lol, sprite! Would you enjoy that? :P :D

12:17 am

LeslieAnn

and also tell him he's getting an F

12:17 am

hurshy

nah, i love him too much for that. i have to wait at least half an hour. he probably figured i wouldn't show.

12:17 am

sprite

Always willing to oblige :D

12:18 am

hurshy

but his name is raolen. i'll stay here but you can yell at him for me anyway. :)

12:19 am

sprite

Promise!

12:19 am

cybernan

Hello everyone

12:19 am

Griffums

hi c'nan!

12:19 am

zubie

Ok, that's 45 down. 100 to go!

12:20 am

sprite

Hi cybernan!

12:20 am

hurshy

so does iceboy actually have these 7's or is he just aware that they are there somehow.

12:21 am

sprite

I think he found them.

12:21 am

stillcrazy

Hi there everyone...back for more!

12:21 am

hurshy

50 down here

12:21 am

Debs40ish

m7/32 & m7 36

12:21 am

Griffums

hi stillcrazy!

12:21 am

hurshy

ok, this is a lot of bragging to take at 1:21 in the morning

12:22 am

sprite

Aaaaaahhhhh.... stilcrazy, what a sweet icon!

12:22 am

hurshy

ooh, but that helped, i got one of the m7's

12:22 am

Debs40ish

lol...... Its 6:32am here...

12:23 am

stillcrazy

ty sprite...I like it!

12:24 am

sprite

Talking about time zones, Debs... it is 7.24 am here! :)

12:25 am

hurshy

so basically east coast, us, is the worst place to live for babbling.

12:26 am

LeslieAnn

um, i think 6 a.m. would not be my cup of tea (don't mind staying up late for it, but getting up early is quite another thing)

12:26 am

sprite

And Europe is probably the best... a new grid every morning when you get up.

12:26 am

hurshy

i would have said the same thing in college, but not anymore i guess.

12:27 am

hurshy

well ordinarily i just get a new grid when i get up too, it's just several hours old, but i don't mind.

12:27 am

sprite

I am always up early, even on holidays. So I love having a new grid to keep me company then :)

12:27 am

Debs40ish

I'm always awake early....never used to have much to do till I found this...

12:28 am

hurshy

i cannot believe he would do this to me. and of course i can't call him now and wake up his poor parents.

12:29 am

sprite

Doesn't he have his own cell phone?

12:29 am

hurshy

no

12:29 am

sprite

Pity.

12:30 am

hurshy

i am going to have to think of a REALLY good way to get back at him for this...

12:31 am

sprite

Shouldn't be too hard... if he is your student, YOU are the one in power ;)

12:32 am

hurshy

yeah, but i can't abuse my power. i have to get back at him in some sort of personal, non-academic way. which is harder.

12:32 am

sprite

I am going to help my son to school. Back soon.

12:33 am

sprite

At least you get to use your imagination, hurshy ;)
I'd say, just go to bed. No man is worth staying up late for, lol.

12:33 am

hurshy

oh, but really, he's a sweetie.

12:34 am

hurshy

besides, no list is a new babble challenge. i have 64 now.

12:34 am

Debs40ish

m7/32 x 2

12:34 am

hurshy

ohhhh you debs you

12:36 am

hurshy

so, um, what time does brandyjack usu. post?

12:37 am

LeslieAnn

oh, it's up now, hurshy. you know you want to...

12:37 am

LeslieAnn

everybody's doing it...

12:38 am

Griffums

I got the list off babanon when I first arrived

12:38 am

hurshy

OH, that makes me feel somewhat better. thanks

12:38 am

hurshy

wow, how does he do it?

12:40 am

Debs40ish

mu7/36 x 2.... <<looks at Hurshy.... sorry....lol

12:41 am

hurshy

it's ok debs, i don't mind now that i have the list

12:42 am

hurshy

it would be so ironic if the night i stay up to babble with him is the night he finally is able to go to sleep at a reasonable hour

12:42 am

hurshy

thought choc would help but is making me feel crappier

12:44 am

hurshy

one really needs company or adrenaline to be up at this time

12:44 am

Debs40ish

He's probably tucked up in bed fast asleep....

12:44 am

cybernan

brandyjack has been busy!

12:46 am

hurshy

debs - that would be highly unprecedented, though i hope so. more likely playing video games with his brother or something.

12:47 am

zubie

70 and thinking about peeking at the list. :s

12:48 am

hurshy

74 and having trouble even with the list

12:50 am

hurshy

anyone else working on the em's. got the first one, then stuck.

12:51 am

Debs40ish

1st 3 letters are the same....on 4 letter ones

12:52 am

hurshy

thanks debs - tried everything but that

12:53 am

Debs40ish

6 letter word is same three letters with something you buy baked bins in!

12:54 am

Debs40ish

Baked beans I meant..... think I need a coffee!

12:54 am

hurshy

sok debs i found it monkeying already. i'm cookin now.

1:01 am

hurshy

ok i have the two ka4's but not the 6's and 7's. somebody give me a starting point?

1:02 am

Debs40ish

ka7/44 x 2

1:03 am

Debs40ish

ka/6 30

1:03 am

hurshy

ok... golly.

1:05 am

hurshy

woohoo! got a pair!

1:05 am

LeslieAnn

one of the ka 6's sound like the end of a trip you take in the summer

1:06 am

hurshy

woohoo got another 7!

1:06 am

hurshy

and thanks to leslie ann got the other 6!

1:07 am

LeslieAnn

wonderful, then you won't mind sharing the other 7 (not the plural) :D

1:08 am

LeslieAnn

oh, never mind, got it

1:08 am

hurshy

the other most common one letter you add to the end of a word

1:08 am

sprite

Just take another final letter.

1:08 am

hurshy

ah the relief of being done with k's.

1:08 am

LeslieAnn

tricky, that babble

1:08 am

sprite

Ah, well... take that as an offer of good will, though absolutely useless ;)

1:09 am

sprite

Did I mention I do NOT like K-words?

1:09 am

hurshy

here here

1:11 am

hurshy

ok, i found an me7 that isn't in the list, but is very apt for my situation. "mesaint"

1:11 am

sprite

LOL!

1:11 am

LeslieAnn

i try to put in aint every day, and every day it still doesn't take it...

1:12 am

hurshy

i gave up on that leslie

1:12 am

sprite

Funny, I was doing exactly that at the moment you posted, Leslie.

1:12 am

hurshy

hooray for the monkeys!

1:13 am

raolen

1:13 am

LeslieAnn

WHOA! look who decided to show up!

1:13 am

hurshy

1:14 am

sprite

raolen... listen... and listen VERY carefully...

1:15 am

Debs40ish

Raolen..... Hurshy's been propping her eyelids open with matches waiting for you!

1:15 am

sprite

You.... are....
LATE!!!

1:15 am

LeslieAnn

1:15 am

Blaze

1:16 am

sprite

Just started, raolen :)

1:16 am

zubie

Hi Blaze!

1:16 am

hurshy

(the yelling was at raolen, not at you guys!)

1:16 am

Debs40ish

1:17 am

hurshy

1:18 am

raolen

1:19 am

Debs40ish

Nite griff...sweet dreams

LeslieAnn

1:20 am

sprite

Bye Griffs!
Raolen... 'sorry' would be a great place to start :)
Poor hurshy fought a complete battle to keep awake for you.

1:21 am

hurshy

'sok guys we're AIMing

1:22 am

Debs40ish

Aiming... at what?

1:22 am

sprite

Nice Ti6/21. Does that mean there could be a valid As6, Ey6 and Le6 as well?

1:22 am

hurshy

AOL Instant Messenger

1:22 am

sprite

I was aiming at raolen, but I don't think that is what hurshy meant. Something like MSN maybe?

1:22 am

Debs40ish

Oh...ok...lol

1:24 am

Debs40ish

Theres no as or ey 6.....

1:24 am

hurshy

he's reading the chat log for penance. so he can see what i went through.

1:24 am

sprite

Not in this grid... but could there be in another? Or is babble only into T4s?

1:25 am

sprite

That should do it, hurshy :D

1:25 am

LeslieAnn

all right, 90 words is all i'm getting tonight. g'night all. (and good luck to raolen! :)

1:25 am

Debs40ish

Sorry Sprite you've lost me!

1:26 am

sprite

Tsk... the needle holders are back and once AGAIN I spent too much time looking for them. Glad the finish is in sight.

1:26 am

Blaze

sprite is that really you ??? I think I need to not look at this chat log... I feel like I am eaves dropping and gettingit all wrong....LOL

1:27 am

sprite

Hehehe... it is me and those darn needle thingies are bugging me always.

1:28 am

Blaze

no volcanos tho

1:28 am

sprite

No, indeed. But a most peculiar H4/7 that I have seen only once before.

1:31 am

sprite

Can't find a def. But I tried brainboost and it said:
"Elaborate. H4/7 means anything and it usually comes out of my niece."

1:31 am

hurshy

ok all he's very sorry and you may all join me in forgiving him now

1:32 am

sprite

Hey raolen... good to see you :)

1:32 am

Debs40ish

Morning Raolen... still think a bunch of flowers and chocs would of been quicker.....lol Nice to see you :)

1:35 am

sprite

Flowers and chocs work for me ;)
Anyone who knows what that H4 word means?

1:35 am

zubie

113 and I'm going for the list. :s

1:36 am

Blaze

got the word no idea.....what it means....

1:37 am

Blaze

altho I think i've the teenager mumble it a few times

1:37 am

nava

hey, i'm back, anyone miss me?

1:38 am

cybernan

Hi Blaze -- sorry to be so late with the greeting -- been busy typing

1:38 am

cybernan

Hi Nava!

1:39 am

sprite

Hi nava.
All I can think up is that H4/7 is another sound-word, like aargh. Even Google isn't helpful with this. I love the brainboost reaction, though :)

1:39 am

Blaze

cybernan I know the feelling... i am trying to keep my head thinking my fingers typing and then oops i'm distracted...again... I love the babble

1:40 am

nava

i'm now a pro babbler

1:41 am

sprite

wtg, nava. Welcome to the gang of addicts ;)

1:41 am

nava

thanks, i love this game

1:43 am

sprite

Nice icon, btw.

1:47 am

sprite

Right, that's the oddest thing. I was still missing one S, according to my stats panel. But when I counted in the list, I had them all. Then I saw one entry was listed, but had no point value behind it. After a refresh it took, got a value and the stats panel was greyed out.
145 words / 4.71 / 1710 points for today.

1:51 am

jenwould

Way to go Sprite...always my inspiration..always!

1:54 am

hurshy

any help with the nu5, maybe?

1:55 am

sprite

Nu5/14: A presiding divinity or spirit of a place, creative energy, genius.

1:55 am

sprite

Close to the latin 'name' word.

1:56 am

hurshy

thanks sprite. now can you tell me if the rh9 bears any relation to the rh5?

1:56 am

sprite

It does. It's the most Rh5 you can find.

1:57 am

hurshy

good grief. and what do i make of this 7 that comes before them?

1:57 am

Blaze

thank you

1:59 am

sprite

Anagram of Rh5 + ni. In case you're interested, it means rare, dense, silvery-white metallic element with a very high melting point used for electrical contacts and with tungsten for high-temperature thermocouples ;)

1:59 am

hurshy

many many many thanks sprite!

2:01 am

sprite

Very welcome :)
Any more clues needed? I have this sweet little daughter who wants company, so I'll be out of here soon. Stupid dutch rules about younglings getting days off from school until they are 9 :(

2:01 am

Blaze

Love them while you can... enjoy Sprite

2:02 am

hurshy

looking down the list i don't anticipate any more super duper trouble...

2:05 am

sprite

I will, Blaze! It's just that is becomes so very hard to work with school rules like that. My daughter had a day off on Friday, now this Monday and both kids will be home Thursday afternoon, because of a workshop for the teachers. When will I get my jobs done?
Well, I'll make the most of it. Enjoy the hunt, dear babblers. See you tomorrow!

2:06 am

zubie

144 and I need a clue for the second to 5 please? Going batty!

2:08 am

zubie

I have the to combo. I need a clue for the other to5. Please?

2:08 am

sprite

zubie, it's a metric term. Sounds exactly like the shorter To3 version.

2:09 am

jallen

These three are driving me crazy:
the second ka 6/30
the second me 7/32
the first mu 7/36.
does anyone have a good clue?

2:10 am

hurshy

how come we get ni4 but not to + ni4?

2:10 am

hurshy

THREE te 6/21s?! i can't even see ONE!

2:11 am

sprite

I wondered the same thing, zubie. Tried it twice, to tell the truth.

2:11 am

zubie

Got it, sprite! Amazing how it was "weighing down" on my brain and not letting me see it! ;D

2:12 am

zubie

And, with that, I'm 145 words 4.71 1710 and done!

2:12 am

sprite

Sorry, that was for hurshy. I'll try the listed hard ones, one mo.

2:14 am

sprite

WTG zubie! Congrats on finishing.
2nd Ka6: the ending of a summer holiday trip with a different first letter.
2nd Me7: person of mixed racial ancestry, especially of mixed European and Native American ancestry
1st Mu7: vertical member, as of stone or wood, dividing a window or other opening

2:16 am

zubie

Thanks, sprite.

2:16 am

sprite

Te6s: one is anagram of the plural needle holders +n.
The other two are diff. spellings of 'So as to be held for the full time value; sustained. Used chiefly as a direction'

2:16 am

hurshy

sprite, you feeling generous with te6's, too? pretty please?

2:17 am

sprite

From your mind to my er... fingers/keyboard/internet connection, lol.

2:20 am

Blaze

good start my last 80 words will await until tomorrow... nite all.....

2:20 am

hurshy

got the music ones, but don't know which word is needle holders

2:23 am

sprite

Sleep well, Blaze.
Hurshy, the needle holders are old friends. E5/12, the french looking word.

2:24 am

hurshy

ah, thanks sprite. guess i haven't been babbling long enough to know that. that and i don't click on the defs enough. :)

2:26 am

sprite

You'll get used to it fast enough, lol. Those Es are some of the pesty little ones you will become alert to. Or you will hunt for them hours on end, of course ;)
I don't always click the defs, but I must admit it is one of the fun things of this game to learn new words that way. Great day/night/whatever to everyone!

2:26 am

zubie

I'm going to rest my ankle now. Even in ankle dilemma, I am stuck to babble. Isn't that sad? :D

2:27 am

sprite

Nice distraction from the pain, zubie ;)
Hope your ankle will be better soon.

2:28 am

zubie

It is a good distraction, sprite! :) Thanks for the wishes.

Ok - I'm out of here now. I'm supposed to keep it elevated!

Bye everyone!

2:32 am

hurshy

2:32 am

sprite

I think you miss the tree one. Though it sounds more like a bird sound.

A New World shrub or small tree (Cyrilla racemiflora) of warm swampy areas, having leathery leaves, yellow fruit, and white flowers in clustered racemes that are borne at the tip of the preceding season's growth. Also called leatherwood

2:32 am

FMitch

We have indeed!!!
Morning Haz, hows the grid for you today?

3:34 am

Haz1558

Only just started but I can see a few words... I love the first time you sit down to the grid when the words seem to come easily. Then it gets harder!

3:36 am

FMitch

3:36 am

Blaze

I am back lemon lime tea time...... hello to all

3:36 am

Haz1558

I've a lot to do to catch up then!

3:37 am

FMitch

Hi Blaze, good to see you, been a while!

LOL Haz, you will probably catch up and overtake before too long as I have to stop soon.

3:38 am

Haz1558

The problem for me is that it's Monday morning, so housework and laundry etc really should take priority. But I can't resist starting Babble first. Hi, Blaze!

3:39 am

Blaze

hi haz....

3:40 am

Haz1558

It must be the wee small hours for you. Is it late to bed or early to rise?

3:42 am

Blaze

late to be and then could not sleep... I pulled a muscle in my leg and it is throbbing... nasty thing...but better to babble and drink tea then toss and turn....LOL

3:42 am

FMitch

Any excuse to babble!!! LOL

3:42 am

Haz1558

That sounds sore - hope the pain eases off soon.

3:43 am

Blaze

oh it should dull down.. I will take some advil after and then rest away....

And meanwhile you can distract yourself with Babble. It sounds a good plan to me.

3:50 am

Blaze

this is a real backwards, over and back again grid

3:52 am

Haz1558

It's one of those frustrating grids with letters there but in the wrong places to make nice words!

3:53 am

Blaze

there are words that go one way and then the plural goes the other way....

4:21 am

FMitch

Does anyone have a clue to the 3rd st5/10 please?

4:23 am

Blaze

what you can drink beer from

4:24 am

FMitch

Hi Blaze, I have that one already - it is the 3rd 5 but only the 2nd 5/10. It's the one between the st4/5 and st4/4 that I am missing.

4:25 am

FMitch

If that makes sense!! LOL

4:26 am

Blaze

you could camp in an S **** (a medical device)

4:27 am

FMitch

ooooo t/y will go ponder that.

4:35 am

FMitch

I am beginning to wish I hadn't started this grid - 11 x mu words and I haven't even started on the k's either!!!!!????? and still cant find that st5/10 which is my last s word. Oh well it is Monday after all.

4:37 am

Blaze

fmitch if you go camping you sleep in a te 4/4 add s

4:38 am

Jacula

Morning all. Blaze - that 'st' you're looking for is a tankard with a lid, often used in German bier kellars.

4:38 am

FMitch

Blaze You are a star, thanks, got it.
Hi Jacula

4:39 am

Blaze

morning jac seems we've been through that one too

4:39 am

Jacula

Blaze - scrub that! You're looking for a medical thing.

4:39 am

Jacula

Think I'll shut up and read the log properly. LOL. FMitch is looking for the medical thing, or was...

4:39 am

Blaze

it's Fmitch that is looking.... I am beating down the last 4 words.....

4:40 am

Jacula

Hi both. Only started about 3/4 of an hour ago. I've come in at 103 words so far.

4:43 am

FMitch

Jacula, I am impressed 3/4 of an hour and already that many words!!!! I'm at 95 but then again work does keep getting in the way and I am sticking to that excuse..... and Blaze with only 4 left to find..... I am not a happy bunny now.

4:44 am

Jacula

Oh dear, FMitch. Erm... it's only words, as my bio says. LOL.

Blaze - What 4 words do you seek?

4:44 am

Blaze

fmitch I will be here awhile trying at this last word for the te 6/21 nasty... need more tea.....

4:44 am

FMitch

I feel better now as I have all the t's and s's too, do you want a clue Blaze?

4:45 am

Blaze

thanks but I think I will monkey type a bit longer... stay tuned

4:45 am

FMitch

there are 3 x te6/21 and they are all horrible words.

4:52 am

Blaze

tarah tarah...... done de done done done.... for this one any way. I will be here with my tea if you need any clues...

4:53 am

Jacula

Well done, Blaze. I'm leaving it at 106 words for now. Must get on with some work. TTFN.

5:01 am

FMitch

Weel done Blaze and bye from me too. Work calls.

5:13 am

Jacula

Blimey! I nearly tied myself in a knot finding that last ka7.

I really am off to do some work now. LOL.

5:44 am

Atalante

ooooooof! not such a nice puzzle today!

5:45 am

FMitch

It lures you in and then goes HA gotcha!

5:48 am

Atalante

it lures me in and goes HA! you can't find my words *snigger*

5:49 am

Atalante

oooooooh one can't write sn1gger!

5:51 am

Jacula

There are not many placed on the net where you can write sn1gger. I wonder if here is like a forum I go on in that you can't write Pakistan either? *We will see.*

5:52 am

Jacula

Oh, good, political correctness hasn't gone too mad on here then.

5:52 am

Atalante

and can I write peacock? that one always turns out as peathingy on one of my favourite forums

5:54 am

Jacula

'Peathingy?' LOL, Atalante. Our forum would accept 'cock' but not the 'proper' word for it.

5:54 am

gnubee

ti6/21. please

5:55 am

Jacula

Good morning Gnubee. Sorry, that's the only ti I haven't got yet.

5:56 am

gnubee

5:59 am

Jacula

Oh, got it now! Sounds rather rude.'Males who admire female globes'. Hope that helps.

6:00 am

SunnFlower

morning all, that ti 6 is different from a leg man but along the same lines. hi jac, haven't seen you for ages

6:00 am

Jacula

It really means a runt of the litter or a small person.

6:01 am

Jacula

Hi Ferrari.

6:01 am

gnubee

Just got it, but so do you - thanks!

6:01 am

SunnFlower

6:03 am

SunnFlower

Jacula

LOL.

6:07 am

Jacula

Ferrari - Come out from under that desk! Have you joined BabAnon yet?

6:09 am

SunnFlower

I thought I had but I came up as an unregistered user when I sent a message for sandr

6:10 am

Jacula

That's strange. Can you message me through the ez inbox?

6:10 am

Eva

Good morning everyone. This feels like a very difficult one. Off to review the log - back when I return to real time.

6:11 am

SunnFlower

don't know, I'll try

6:12 am

Jacula

Okay, Ferrari. I'll sign in there and look out for it.

SunnFlower

6:36 am

Jera

Nice kitty, Cathy! I should shoot mine... (maybe take pictures of fthem, too...)

6:45 am

jenwould

ferrari, being a brit perhaps you can help me with one of sprite's clues...for the 2nd ka/6 (end of summer holiday with a different 1st letter) I have no clue...

6:45 am

SunnFlower

is'nt there a guy with name that sounds the same ie Te*****

6:46 am

Jacula

Jen - that 2nd ka6 sounds like the last part of a US holiday. It's a word we don't really use in UK.

6:48 am

SunnFlower

jen think of the general name for any country and change the 1st letter

6:48 am

jenwould

it figures. jacula... ok back on goes the Moron hat with the little propellers and all... thanks for pointing out the obvious!

6:49 am

jenwould

ferrari - also a great clue... thanks to you both! Ferrari, have a splendid day

6:59 am

Jen

bye Jera!

7:00 am

Jacula

Right, looking for my very last word now; the first th5/12. Bet it's something blindingly obvious..

7:01 am

EvaNadine

jacula, dunno if its the one you need, but i have a Th 5/12
"now and Th**"
(last word plural)

7:01 am

SunnFlower

it's plural of the word before it jac, it shouldn't be a word

7:01 am

Jacula

Got it and it was blindingly obvious. Was in yesterday's grid too, if I remember rightly.

7:03 am

Jacula

It was a 'skinny' word with an Eclair in the middle.

7:05 am

Jacula

I suppose I'd better drag myself away now I'm all done and get on with things like washing out the cat litter tray and mucking out 6 guineapig and rabbit hutches. Ho, hum. Anyone want any clues before I go?

7:07 am

SunnFlower

see you jac, I've got to clean my ratties out, must drag myself away, lol

7:10 am

Jacula

I wrote a lot of Christmas recipes last night ready to type out and put in BabAnon. Dunno if there's going to be a problem doing that though, 'cos when I just went to 'Start New Topic' within the 'Recipes' thread I got an error message saying, 'No room left on device'.:-((

I'll try later when I've more time.

7:12 am

FMitch

ooooo Jacula, chrimbo recipes - do keep trying and will look forward to seeing them posted!

7:16 am

Jacula

Will do, FMitch. I tried to pick some things that are traditional but with a new twist. Will also be doing a cooking table for all kinds of roasts nearer the time.

7:19 am

FMitch

Can't wait!! thanks Jacula

7:20 am

EvaNadine

am i the only one having trouble with todays puzzle?
cant tell if its a short-but-toughie or if im just not quite in babble-mode yet...

7:21 am

FMitch

EvaN - it's not you it is one of those grids.

7:22 am

EvaNadine

thanks fmitch...glad to know its not just me being out of it...hehe

7:24 am

FMitch

there are a few real babble words but a lot of normal ones too. Have to say tho - who woiuld have thought that the 9 word would come from the rh corner - that was a real doozie!

7:26 am

EvaNadine

i just keep seeing words that are *almost* in there...hehe

7:30 am

FMitch

LOL EvaN - me too and if they had counted I would be up to about 400 words now!

7:38 am

roncook

hi y,all
seems to be a lot of red white and black today in the icons
got my beady eye on you !!

8:26 am

Jacula

Hi folks. Just popped in to say I've put 3 different recipes for tree-hanging cookies into BabAnon recipes thread. More recipes to come later.

P.S. Judie's icon is a rat, I think.

8:27 am

ToeSockMonkey

Ron - love the icon..... very cute :)

8:28 am

Atalante

I dont want a big clue for the 9 - am determined to find it - but could someone say whether it starts with rho, rhe or rhi?

8:28 am

ToeSockMonkey

Jacula thanks for the hint on judie's icon lol

8:29 am

Jacula

Oh, that icon's a gerbil? Our gerbil, Basil, had a little wooden house just like the one that seems to be in Judie's icon. He used to stand on top of it to watch 'The Bill' on TV. No idea why he liked the programme so much, but he always came out to watch it. LOL.

8:30 am

Jacula

Atalante - rhe.

8:31 am

Atalante

thanks Jacula - I was presuming that, but I didn't want to spend goodness knows how long looking at something completely incorrect!

8:33 am

Jacula

Happy hunting, Atalante. I'm back off to mucking out hutches.

8:34 am

Anj

Atalante, I have a bone to pick!!
I went in town to get wire wool and some UHT paint today and came back with Neil Gaiman's Anansi Boys instead.
My foot would be tapping if I wasn't laughing so much :D

8:35 am

Hi Temple :)

8:41 am

Atalante

Those are wonderful books too! I *love* the Farseer Trilogy

8:44 am

Anj

Lotti, I can only see your Smiley Icon :)

72 Temple Owl

8:50 am

Uneaixoise

8:50 am

Anj

'bye Lotti :)

9:09 am

mummy

I wish it wasn't icy outside, then I could go out and get away from this dreadful puzzle... there is ice all over the Mendips I can see from my window... better stay here in the warm..

9:11 am

Mooog

Every time I do one of these and see it.. I ask myself why WHY isn't 'tase' a word. *sigh*

9:11 am

DarleenMB

Mornin' all. popped in for a few before I go to the gym. How's everyone today?

9:12 am

lola100

Hi darleen :)

9:13 am

Anj

Hi Darleen. There are apparently 36 T words in this grid. I can see 10. I want my mumy :/

9:13 am

DarleenMB

9:14 am

Anj

Thanks Darleen :)

How many Ps today?

Hi jera :)

9:21 am

Anj

Hi Jera - when can you take the bandages off then?? ;)

9:21 am

Jen

Hey everyone! Back from the gym. How's it going?

9:21 am

Jera

Oh, I didn't do it... just had to hold him down while the poor barber did his best to not slice his ears off... that's my upper body work for the day!

9:22 am

lola100

Hi jen :)

9:22 am

ToeSockMonkey

I feel so out of the loop with out a smiley face as well...

9:22 am

Jera

Jen! I feel like I'm back from the gym! Gwyd just got a haircut & guess who had to hold him down for it?

9:22 am

Jen

Jera, have you tried Cartoon Cuts? It's a place designed for kids and they have TVs at every station with a movie playing. It's the only way Ethan will sit still.

9:22 am

ToeSockMonkey

lola - thanks for 9 letter word clue!

9:23 am

Anj

Jen, it isn't. Not happening for me. I've experienced more movement on a glacier. Brain must be glitched...

9:23 am

lola100

No worries toes. Did you get it?

9:24 am

Jen

I'm so sorry Anj! You are right, this one has some very weird words today!

9:24 am

Jera

Hadn't heard of it, but I'll look into it... he hates anything being done to his head... cries when his hair is brush, screams when I clean his ears, hates to have his teeth brushed...

9:24 am

DarleenMB

DAng. Thanks lola for the 9 clue. tsk. hadda been a snake, well, ouch.

9:26 am

Jen

Jera, there is one in Woodbridge in some shopping center called Smoketown Stations... they have a coupon for $2 off on their website (www.cartooncuts.com)

9:28 am

torgone

Hi, kids! Thanks for the 9, lola.

9:28 am

joelgee

This is a stupid game with a stupid grid with stupid words and stupid letters.
On the other hand, lots of smiles.

9:28 am

Jera

Just found it, thanks! Maybe they can tidy this hack job up... no reproach on the barber at all...

9:28 am

doxy1lover

nice segue between all the piratey stuff and the smilies.

9:34 am

Jera

Thanks... I try to be different, even when succumbing to peer pressure... I resisted urge to use the one with the bullethole in the forehead, aren't you proud of me??

9:35 am

joelgee

9:35 am

lola100

9:35 am

torgone

Aaarrrr.

9:35 am

joelgee

9:36 am

Jera

I tried that joelgee... but I just looked like a wet idiot...

9:36 am

renfield

9:36 am

joelgee

joelgee

One great blissed-out smile, sherry.

9:38 am

Sherry

Jera: that's what I looke like when I'm done with a grid!

lola100

Hi baggo :)

9:40 am

e_gurl85

good morning all

9:40 am

torgone

It is kind of hard to "AAAaaarrr" with a big stupid grin on your face.

You try to cross over there on a chicken, and you'll find out why a duck.

9:40 am

baggo

thanks joel...hi lola

9:40 am

EvaNadine

i feel left out, having a smilie-free icon.

:D

9:40 am

lola100

Hi snowy! Yes, it's gorgeous :)

9:41 am

joelgee

I'm thinking, "The Cocoanuts" where Groucho is talking about installing the viaduct.

9:41 am

Jera

Cute kid pics ALWAYS work... greetings, snowyowl!!

9:41 am

Sherry

Hi nurse Baggo!
Joel: a 300 words grid!

9:41 am

Sherry

Hi Snowy!
HI gurl!

9:41 am

Anj

At last! The meaning of life:

"M-hmm. Well, it's nothing very special. Uh, try and be nice to people, avoid eating fat, read a good book every now and then, get some walking in, and try and live together in peace and harmony with people of all creeds and nations."

I had to take off the rest :/ lol :)

9:41 am

baggo

snowy you win the prize!!! **if there was one**

9:42 am

joelgee

snowy--

9:43 am

9:43 am

Sherry

Hey Darleen! I watched The Chronicles of Riddick yesterday...

9:44 am

Anj

Er, yes: quotesion.

Ahem, it's a new word, er...cross between a question and a quotation. Yes! That's right...
*Nurse! The screens now if you please...*

9:45 am

baggo

bye joel

9:45 am

snowyowl

Hi all - So nice to have a smiley chat log. Joelgee see you're as enigmatic as ever and Evanadines bikini bottom looks rather like a smile don't you think?

9:45 am

DarleenMB

Sherry .. how'd you like it?

9:46 am

joelgee

if there was a qu in today's grid, I'd be looking for quotesion.

9:46 am

Jera

When I was a child, I made up the word "gesticulate (to use your hands a lot while you talk)." I was extremely disappointed to learn it had already been invented...

9:46 am

renfield

bye joel - me to - i'm suppose to be on vacation this week - but (and anything after but is the truth) i was called asked to come in....

9:46 am

DarleenMB

joelgee, sounds like water spring...with class

9:47 am

Sherry

Darleen: it was better than I thought! I spent my time being like: 'wow..how did he do that?!'

9:47 am

Sherry

Bye Renfield!

9:48 am

DarleenMB

Yeah. Amazingly enough I thought Riddick was quite well done. Excellent sfx and a real SF/fantasy story.

9:49 am

renfield

sherry - cute face -

9:49 am

Sherry

Darleen: yeah. I thought I might watch the second episode and then I realised it actually was the second one! lol! Need to see Pitch Black now.

9:50 am

DarleenMB

ooooh. Pitch Black scared me to death! It's REALLY creepy. Great idea, well done and just just .... ewwwwwwww....

9:50 am

Jera

I must leave soon to do the bathtub battle... Gwyd is covered in sticky hair (the poor barber thought it was a good idea to give the child a sucker to ease the horror of a haircut). I can't take him to preschool like that, LOL!

9:51 am

Sherry

Lol! See ya Jera!

9:51 am

lola100

Right, I just made tea/coffee for everyone, so help yourselves to the mug with your icon on. Toes, yours is the can of mountain dew :)

9:51 am

DarleenMB

speaking of leaving, time for me to go to. later all.

9:51 am

baggo

bye darleen, bye jera!!

9:52 am

DarleenMB

TSK. Time for me to go TOO. bad darleen, bad.

9:52 am

Sherry

Darleen: that's what I thought when it came out couple of years ago. I usually watch my movies around 1am, in my bed and in the dark...

9:52 am

Jera

He's eating breakfast while he watches Backyardigans, so I'm stealing a bit of Babble time... Cinni Minis from Burger King soothed the trauma... a bit...

9:53 am

Sherry

Bye Darleen!

9:53 am

DarleenMB

Sherry, I haven't been able to watch it again since the first time. Almost as creepy as Alien.

Now I really AM going.

9:53 am

Sherry

Jera: poor kid! How old is he?

9:55 am

e_gurl85

any clue for the no5/14 please

9:55 am

ToeSockMonkey

Sherry - I love your icon! That's awesome! lol

9:56 am

Jera

Just turned 4... too old for Momma to have to hold him in her lap during a haircut, IMHO... so I got covered in his shining golden curls as well...

9:57 am

Jen

Argh!! I am trying to get tix to view the panda cub at the National Zoo and the web site is down (like not overloaded, but under construction) and the phone number isn't working either!!! So very frustrating! Whew! Thanks for letting me get that out.

9:57 am

Jera

*picks more shining golden Gwyd curls from her cleavage*

9:57 am

Sherry

TSM: thanks!

9:58 am

Anj

Sherry, is that the "Nirvana: Flower Sniffin', Kitty Pettin', Baby Kissin' Corporate Rock Whores" smiley face ? lol :D

9:58 am

Jera

Jen... Sprite is hot to see all the Cheetah cubs... she's mad about Cheetahs! She's having her next birthday at the Zoo... are you a member of FONZ?

9:59 am

Sherry

Jera: I see. His name is Gwyd? Or is it the shortened form for Gwyddion or some Welsh name? Very curious Sherry..

9:59 am

Jen

No, we aren't yet. We had a membership at the Omaha Zoo, which, oddly enough is 100% better than the National Zoo.

9:59 am

Jera

Yes! So nice for someone to get that!

10:00 am

Jera

Sorry, I was talking to Sherry about getting Gwyd's name...

10:00 am

Sherry

Anj: LOL! It's more like '300 words? ouch...' or 'Apollo *drool*'

10:01 am

Jera

Jen... the National Zoo has had some troubles, that's one reason i really wanted to help them out... they must be doing something right with the Cheetahs, it's been a real baby boom this past year

10:01 am

snowyowl

Oh well have to go - Twins are downstairs organising a concert on a Barbie battery operated violin and an ancient Bontempi mouth organ/ keyboard from the 60s! Hubby is just putting in his earplugs and nana is just going to have to do a lot of smiling! Pray for my ears please! LOL
Be back tonight!

10:02 am

Jera

Oh, snowy... sounds absolutely precious! Enjoy their creativity!!

10:02 am

Sherry

Jera: ;) I LOVE that name so much that I've named one of my characters like that.

10:02 am

baggo

bye snowy ***tosses earplugs****

10:02 am

Sherry

Bye Snowy!

10:02 am

Anj

Ah, I get it :)

Hey, non-Babble Q - remember this:

Lipsmackin' Thirstquenchin' Acetastin' Motivatin' Goodbuzzin' Cooltalkin' Highwalkin' Fastlivin' Evergivin' Coolfizzin - Pepsi??

Anyone remember the alternative version?? I think it started something like "Teethrottin' Gutwrenchin'..."
but I can't find any ref on-line.

10:03 am

Jen

I know they are definitely trying, which is good. Go to the Omaha zoo web site and you'll see what I am talking about... they have a desert dome, creatures of the night, a huge rain forest, a gorilla valley, and they are working on a new cat house.

10:03 am

lola100

'bye snowy! *tosses bottle of vodka*

10:04 am

Jera

*backs slowly away from Anj*

Def Leppard & Sting's "Dream of the Blue Turtles" is as weird as I get... I'm so boring...

10:05 am

baggo

we just had our new baby elephant here and a new one due next year also...

10:05 am

Jera

Sprite has been listening to "Mother" lately... she's starting the teen angst early...

10:05 am

snowyowl

Thanks all I think the earplugs and the Vodka should just about cover it ! They are bursting with excitement so must go !

10:07 am

Jera

It's so funny making my worksheet with Word for Windows... with the aut spell-check... at least half the words are underlined, LOL

10:08 am

Sherry

I'm off to do some shopping (red stuff for my hair, green gloves, an english book for my wednesady pupil, vodka for my brother, bla bla bla..)!
See you later!

10:08 am

Anj

Tell me about it. I've only got 5 of the Ps so far... :/

10:08 am

Jen

10:41 am

Anj

10:41 am

cybernan

Hi everyone........

Jakesmom-- mu7/36 is plural of the mu6 preceding it.

10:42 am

cybernan

That's good, Anj -- I only got 84 on the first sweep.
I'm stuck with 15 to go, now.

10:42 am

lola100

Hi cybernan :)

10:43 am

10:43 am

e_gurl85

cybernan will the other no word help me out or not

10:44 am

cybernan

Hi Ron -- cold and foggy (air temp is still colder than the lake, so lots of condensation)

10:45 am

roncook

10:45 am

cybernan

e_gurl -- drop the last letter of the other one and add a latin ending

10:46 am

10:48 am

cybernan

hi mama!

10:50 am

Jera

Sorry, Lola, I was calling another place... I'm not sure, I guess it depends on the place. I just talked to another one that has no trouble with him... but they want copies of medical stuff, so it's looking like he'll go tomorrow...

10:51 am

cybernan

Thanks, Ron, but knowing next to nothing about geology, it doesn't help much.

10:52 am

EasternBlue

You guys are so funny. Just had to send sunny smiley to the Canadians :-). I'm too busy packing to play now. Tomorrow is the big moving day!

10:55 am

lola100

cybernan, the rh7 ends in two letters that sound like the sound you make when you don't know what to say. Hope that helps :)

10:55 am

EasternBlue

very cute mamabear! : )

10:55 am

Babbler

yoo hoo!!! gosh, I've just spent like 30 mins looking at all the smiley images in Google!! And I still haven't finished! :D

MAMABEAR !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
*gives gentle hug cos thinks Mamabear not up to being knocked down today*

10:55 am

Jera

Yes, we already toured the one, but that was a few months ago. Didn't seem to have a problem completing the p/t process with their system then, but now that he's 4 evidenlt he got bumped into another bracket... will visit new one this afternoon so Sprite can check it out (she's very concerned with his schooling)...

10:56 am

Jera

Ignore my post, Mamabear... none are as good as the one you found!

10:57 am

lola100

Hi sweetie, dahling! mwah!

10:57 am

You don't HAVE to, ScoutsMom... I really want it for Gwyd since he has a late September birthday... I want him ready for Kindergarten next year!

Babbler - knock me down, go ahead..... might help!

10:59 am

Babbler

*leaps into action, knocks Mamabear down in enthusiastic big fat squeezy tight bearhug cos I loooooove my Mamabear!!*

:D

10:59 am

ScoutsMom

Ah. I forgot Gwyd was a little older than Scout. I guess that's on the agenda soon, though. Around here there are so few good ones that you have to get a foot in the door early.

10:59 am

Damn, have to go make dinner! Be back later :)

Jera

Never mind... got it as soon as I asked...

11:02 am

mamabear

But then I really haven't looked at it.... although interesting to see an "M".... don't see them often.
I was more interested in seeing who's out and about...

11:03 am

Babbler

Mamabear, it's Smiley Monday, to start the week with a smile...... : )

glad my hug helped !! :D

11:03 am

EasternBlue

11:25 am

Jen

Oooh oooh! I see a mention of liquor!!! Weird how I gravitated towards that part of the chat! It's a little too early for Cognac for me, but could I have a Bloody Mary? :)

11:26 am

Babbler

you can indeed, Jen, you can indeed!

*prepares Bloody Mary with only the finest ingrediants, quick stir, reaches over and puts it on Jen's desk*

Oooh c*ap! Sorry! I didn't even think about that! Wasn't trying to cheat! Just talking like I normally do.

11:32 am

GreyWoulf

Sorry, Jen - the ability to turn you into a clue was impossible to resist :D

11:32 am

mamabear

Not a biggie, Jen, don't sweat it!!!!!!!

11:32 am

Babbler

s'alright, Jen, we all do it. What about that day 'oops' was in the grid?? I mean, like how many times did we all use that word in our posts that day, in general conversation!! lol ! : )

11:32 am

GreyWoulf

Besides we have all done it at one time or another

I did just two days ago ;)

11:33 am

Jen

I guess if my faux pas helped someone and no one is offended, I'm okay. Anyone offended?

11:33 am

mamabear

Not offended in the least!!!!!

11:34 am

Schroeder

Nope, not at all.

11:34 am

rh9 is the most rh5

Mama - make it 'the most' the for the r9

Wogoe

rh9 Go one tile down from last letter of rh5. Add superlative ending.

11:53 am

doxy1lover

Bugzy

Lola, you are indeed a goddess!! TY TY! :)

2:40 pm

Anj

lol sandypops :) I usually do that when i'm looking for a word out of order with the rest...

Evening Boreetos :)

2:40 pm

boreetos

well, you know, had to update at some point, and i noticed a happy face trend, subtle as it was.

2:42 pm

sandypops

Thanx Easternblue back on track now

2:43 pm

boreetos

so, I imagine most of you are already done then?
It seems that atleast Anj and Lola are.
hi guys.

see Harry Potter 4 yet?

2:44 pm

72 Temple Owl

hi sandy

2:45 pm

lottijw

Boreetos, hopefully going to see it soon!!!!

2:45 pm

EasternBlue

Boreetos...30 to find still

2:45 pm

hackerly

Harry Potter 4 was really good.... it helps if you had read the book, though... lost of parts to fill in

2:45 pm

boreetos

lotti, best one so far in my humble opinion.

2:45 pm

72 Temple Owl

i just noticed there are ne's in this puzzle...i think i need to be fish-slapped just to wake me up!

2:46 pm

lottijw

It looks fantastic! I can`t wait!!!

2:46 pm

boreetos

well, eastern blue, you're much furhter than I am,

yeah that's a good point hackerly, the book was much deeper, but for nearly three hours, they had to drop some stuff, and I really like what they kept.

2:48 pm

hackerly

i did too! I think this movie by far appealed to an older crowd!

2:48 pm

Anj

...i'm one of the charlatans who has seen all the HP films so far (IV tomorrow night) , but hasn't read a word of JKR.
I've enjoyed them all so far :)

2:49 pm

hackerly

i wore my Griffindor T-shirt and scarf... I am a big nerd

2:49 pm

boreetos

it's true, much darker, more adult themes. And Voldermort looks awesome.

2:49 pm

EasternBlue

Anj - I can do one better - I haven't read the books, nor have I seen the movies...I keep saying I want to read the books first - then see the movie(s)... : )

2:49 pm

efor1124

i went to the midnite showing of HPIV. i'm 27 and i was not alone - not too many kids at this one!

2:49 pm

kakamolaka

listen to the audio books instead!

2:50 pm

boreetos

Anj, that's cool, although I do highly reccomend the books. The movies are a world of their own.

2:50 pm

lottijw

As usual Anj, the books are far better. In my mind Kenneth Brannagh isn`t good looking enough for the part he played!!!! My imagination does tend to run away with me though !!!Lol

2:51 pm

hackerly

my BF doesn't understand my need of Harry Potter! I have read both the American and UK versions of the books and have seen all the movies! They are the new classics and the movies are very well done

2:52 pm

Babbler

Anj, the books are amazing!

back ! :)

2:52 pm

boreetos

its a phenonemon, no doubt. I was late getting into the books, I think the fourth one had just come out when I started them. And I waited at the book store at midnight for book book six, and will do the same with seven.

2:52 pm

Babbler

I placed an andvance order for book 6 !!

2:53 pm

efor1124

the books are great. I think the movie HP & the Prisoner of Azkaban was good, but it didn't explain it all like the book, a lot of stuff was missing.

2:53 pm

Babbler

lol!! advance I mean ... : )

2:53 pm

hackerly

My Harry Potter books have shelves of their own! they are my prized possessions

2:53 pm

boreetos

Well, fellow fans of the HP series, I gotta get back to work. (muggle stuff) See you later.

2:54 pm

Babbler

there was one book, the 3rd I think, that really spooked me. I actually had a nightmare or two!!

2:55 pm

You got mail babe :)

My beloved and I saw HPIV this weekend and loved it. He spent 19 years in a monastery and every monk there is a huge fan of the books, and the movies. Books rule, though -- I agree with that!

2:56 pm

hackerly

i advance order too! I really got into HP for my nephew... it has really helped me bond with him! Plus I love to hear how excited he gets to tell me about the books, because he knows I will know what he is talking about! It is great

2:56 pm

Babbler

bye boreetos! faaab icon!! :)

2:59 pm

lottijw

See you guys later, i`m off to join Ant and Dec in the Jungle!!! (how sad am i ?)

2:59 pm

Anj

The HP books have just never appealed to me though :/
The films are good and i'm also looking forward to The Chronicles of Narnia.
There are also a load of tales I would like to see made into films:
The Hyperion Cantos
The Belgariad/Mallorean
NIght's Dawn
The Riftwar Saga
Heck, even some of the Dragonlance books could throw up a blockbuster or two... the list is endless :)

3:00 pm

Anj

Lotti, aren't we better company?? :/

3:00 pm

Babbler

I'm looking forward to the Narnia film(s). Monica Bellucci is supposed to be fantastic in this one.

3:00 pm

lola100

'bye sis :)

3:01 pm

Babbler

bye Lotti (you sad case, you !! LOL !!) : )

3:01 pm

Bobsta

i'm back all.
Anj: I can't believe it, i've actually found someone else thats read 'the Belgariad/mallorean' and agrees that they should be films!!!

3:02 pm

Bobsta

Lotti: Oh Dear!!!

3:02 pm

Babbler

hey bobsta :)

3:03 pm

Anj

Hi Bobsta :)
Yup, and I think all 10 books should be filmed in 3 hits. Eddings always writes at a cracking pace and the screenplay would be long & involved, but hey, what a film :)

3:03 pm

Bugzy

Bye Lotti / Hi Bobsta :)

3:03 pm

lottijw

Of course you are Anj xx
Hey Bobsta, is that you and who you with?

3:06 pm

Bobsta

got that right, I've lost count how many times i've read those books.
The 'Elennium and Tamuli' would make a great trilogy too!!!

3:07 pm

Bobsta

hey Babbler, hey bugzy.
Lotti: me and my Daughter :o)

3:08 pm

Anj

...and Monica Belluci gets to play Polgara :)
Naturally, I shall audition for the part of Durnick :D

3:09 pm

Bobsta

I'd want to be 'silk'
Being a reluctant price appeals to me!!!

3:09 pm

lottijw

She looks gorgeous!!! :)
Really must go now.
Byyeeee :o)

4:10 pm

Ok, art lady, let's do it!

4:10 pm

Anj

Bobsta, sounds reasonable, although i'm not sure if Crowe has the gravitas to carry out Mandorallen's role. It's a very formal thing if I remember. Maybe James Purefoy?
The MDQ tho' is who would play the kids ??

4:23 pm

artlady

Ooops, my daughter (at her most mature 18) said "it's smiley Monday...you're such a dork, mom!"

4:24 pm

Miyavi_fan

Smiley Monday...nice ^_^. I don't trust my computer to go and look for a new icon, I think I'll just have to stick out like a rather morbid sore thumb...still modelling the late Hideto :(

4:24 pm

Jera

he's starting tomorrow morning! He was very comfortable, all the kids in his class were friendly, if he'd had a nap I would have let him stay an hour. He just joined right in while we were talking to the direfctor. he's quiet but he's not shy!

4:24 pm

snowyowl

It goes with the territory Artlady!lol Am fast becoming a figure of fun for my 2 children!

hi, sherry, babbler, ang, tbear, snowy, happy 1and the rest of the usual suspects.

4:25 pm

Miyavi_fan

Though I think tomorrow should be gross-out Tuesday...it's PSHE day at school tomorrow where I've got a nasty feeling my class is doing an all too graphic sex education unit. To tell you something you probably don't want to hear, there's a high chance it'll involve contraceptive, er, devices...and bananas...

4:25 pm

joelgee

hiya, miya.

4:25 pm

lola100

Ah jera, that's great. I'll be thinking of you guys tomorrow :)

4:26 pm

Jera

*singing loudly*

Her two kids in high school, they tell her that she's uncool... cuz she's still preoccupied... with 1985!!

(that's my theme song)

4:26 pm

Schroeder

Hi all back for a little while. Artlady, my 14yr daughter says the same to me, but I say her logged in the other day playing!!!!

4:26 pm

Miyavi_fan

Hey Joel...looking very enigmatic there :)

4:26 pm

Babbler

eeeuuww, Miya, I don't envy you, luv! :)

4:27 pm

Sherry

Artlady: my brother (23), my sister (25) and I (29) often make gentle fun of our mom! Just to remind her of the good ol' days! Like speaking slang on purpose just because she doesn't like it.lol!

4:27 pm

Jo

Hello, everyone! :-)

4:27 pm

joelgee

I can't talk about it.

4:27 pm

snowyowl

Lol Jera - trouble is I'm still back in 1974!

4:27 pm

Babbler

hi Jo! love your icon! : D

4:27 pm

Jera

Lola, he'll have some adjustments to make as they do things a bit earlier than he's used to... lunch at 11, nap 12-2 (rather than 12 & 1-3 like we do at home)

4:27 pm

Babbler

LOL joelgee! : D

babbler and Snowyowl tyvm i am so sorry it took so long for your great clues to sink in...but i have eventually got it!!!!

4:28 pm

Miyavi_fan

Babbler, you have to ask why they would inflict such horrors on people of my tender (huh) age. Especially since one of the teachers is well known to get very, er, attached to the chosen contraceptive device :/

4:28 pm

Jera

I love my 80's rock... my kids will probably rebel & blast the Mozart...

4:28 pm

Anj

Bobsta, are they too old?? Maybe it would be better with a couple of unknowns who can grow into the part?
I'm not sure I ccan picture Lindsay Lohan as C'Nedra either lol

4:28 pm

artlady

Well, I sure am glad I put my smiling face back up today...of course, my daughter is now sneering even more at me....keeps us humble, folks. My STUDENTS treat me better! ;-)

4:29 pm

Babbler

*covers ears and eyes and shudders*

you poor poor thing, Miya! : {

4:29 pm

Miyavi_fan

Hey Jo :D

Nope, the novelty of saying that is just never gonna wear off...

4:29 pm

lola100

jera, don't worry, he'll be fine! He won't miss the usual routine because everything will be different. How are you feeling about your baby going to school??

4:29 pm

mab

Hi all. I think I've got a smiley face. It may not be actually smiling, but it comes from the proud heritage of smiley faces.

4:30 pm

Jo

Before checking out babbler anon, what is the 9-letter letter?

4:30 pm

Yoink

Hi again folks

4:30 pm

Babbler

HI Schroeder : D

4:30 pm

Jera

1974 was an interesting year for me... started kindergarten... had 2 major (neuro) surgeries & a shaved head... whoo-hoo!

4:30 pm

Jo

Yoink! Yikes.
Mab .. you're smiley has gone RETRO! :-)

4:30 pm

Miyavi_fan

Don't worry Babbler, I think I should be with friends, which will make the whole experience a bit better. Although...the two best friends can't be trusted around things like that. Tom will be going: "but it's so big! It's just so big!" and Hayley will be...urgh, I don't want to think about it!

4:30 pm

Babbler

YOINK !!!

happy birthday for the other day, mate. Mine was a week or two before yours. :D

Hi Babs, Jo, Sherry.

November is the best month for birthdays!

4:32 pm

snowyowl

LOl Miya - just do a lot of listening1 My kids were really good kids and I prided myself on how well I'd done. As I tell all my friends now,all the lectures worked - we had no drugs, no police, nice manners & loads of fun.My son was a father of twins at 19 and my daughter had morning sickness all through her university finals! LOL I obviously do C**P contraceptive lectures

4:32 pm

*puzzled silence* *rhetorical question*
Since when has Photek and The Prodigy ever been considered Goth???

4:32 pm

Yoink, end of October for me, but still a scorpio!! : )

4:33 pm

Jera

Well, it's time for the Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy sing-a-long at my house...

Umm, yeah, that's what I meant really, Scorpios! :-D

Jera, not 'Thanks for all the Fish" ???

4:34 pm

artlady

Yes, November is a great month for birthdays...
Miyavi, you'll get thru it!

4:34 pm

Yoink

Aww, Boreetos wins the smiley contest as far as I'm concerned

4:34 pm

Miyavi_fan

Snowy, that's definitely in the parent's manual of icky things to do :) I think it's the chapter in between "tell them they can't go out after 11" and "explaining death to toddlers after Great uncle Albert pops his clogs"

4:34 pm

torgone

I'll second that, Yoink.

4:34 pm

Babbler

you too, artlady?? wooo hoooo !! : D

4:34 pm

mab

ooo, this is one ugly kitty, overly enlarged. No wonder she's not smiling.

4:35 pm

Bobsta

If its younger then perhaps that kid thats in Roman Polanski's 'Oliver'?

4:35 pm

Deutsch

Okay, I'm now smiling (and plural). Are we speaking birthdays? Mine is Nov. 28! Hippy Birthday to all born this month!

4:35 pm

boreetos

thanks yoink. I'm a fan.

4:35 pm

torgone

Do cats even smile, mab?

4:35 pm

Miyavi_fan

Mine's not smiling, but as a face I love it anyway :) And the person attached to it, of course.
Artlady, don't worry! I will, of course, torture you all with a blow-by-blow account though :)
Babbler...be afraid *evil laugh*

4:35 pm

Babbler

one week to go, Deutsch!! Many happy returns! : )

4:36 pm

Babbler

Miya!!! Yer tight get!! : D

One of my two cats smiles. The other just smiles inwardly.

4:36 pm

Miyavi_fan

I always thought February was a great month for birthdays. Me, three friends, three j-rockers...all born in the space of twenty eight days

4:37 pm

Babbler

miya, so are you aquarius or pisces?

4:37 pm

snowyowl

I wass soo laid back about it Miy - in my next life I will TERRIFY them about pregnancy like my mum did to me. I was so frightened it took me ages to get pregnant AFTER I was married LOL

4:37 pm

Miyavi_fan

Babbler, probably best if the word 'tight' stays out of conversation for the next 48 hours! :D

4:37 pm

Jera

Anj... YES!!! Ad nauseum... (& I like it)

4:37 pm

Babbler

LOL Miya !!!! : D didn't think of that! :

Dec. 16. Cash preferred in lieu of gifts.

4:38 pm

artlady

Mine was November 6. Miy, my daughter is a February birthday, so I'll agree with you. BTW, I really enjoy your descriptive language when you write! What a lot of fun you'd be in my class! (well, we don't really write much in art...)

4:38 pm

Oh Deutsch thats my Mollybeths birthday too! She'll be thrilled to share it with a zebra! lol

4:40 pm

Miyavi_fan

Babbler, Aquarius and proud! :)
Snowy, don't worry...schools apparently do that for you now, as tomorrow will testify :/
Artlady...*shudders* Will have to do my best to block the words latex, tight, banana, and rubber from my sight :)

4:40 pm

Jo

My grandfather's birthday was on XMAS, and my brothers is two days later. Poor boys, combined gifts every year, LOL

Ah, star signs are confusing. The sign Aquarius means water...but they have it down as an air sign. So, so, screwed.
*goes off to have rant*

4:42 pm

boreetos

hey snowy, that means they were both concieved somewhere in the begining of Feb. Any reason to celebrate in the begining of Feb? Valentine's perhaps?

4:42 pm

Jera

My birthday is January 2nd... I know the combined gift scene well...

4:42 pm

artlady

Miy, that would make a very interesting set of materials for an art project...You should see some of the materials some artists use...body fluids...and more!

4:42 pm

Anj

Snowy, February a quite time around there then??? :)

4:42 pm

schroeder! Excellent! Party month becomes party months!

4:43 pm

You're sorted already then Jera! Tell her about epidurals when she's 23! lol

4:43 pm

no miya, aquarius is the water bearer, but it is an air sign.

4:43 pm

boreetos

hey Anj, I see great minds think alike. :)

jera. :)

4:43 pm

Jo

In my adulthood, I have been much kinder to the brother. He gets a cake, birthday wrapping paper and everything. LOL

4:43 pm

Wah...gotta go. With any luck I'll die in my sleep :)

Well, not really.

Although...the image of Miss Pantling (honestly) putting a condom on a banana...*shudders*

Boreetos, I think the 14th nails it for February :D

4:45 pm

ch1212

Babbler, the birthday of 12/12 is special in numerology because of the double 3-3. March 12 (3/12) is the same. For me, with a birth number of 3, both dates have been lucky. Won $1000 on a 3/12, found out I was pregnant on a 3/12, divorce final on a 12/12, lost my virginity on a 12/12, mom's birthday was 12/12... but other than numerological references, don't know about 'magical.'

4:45 pm

Joelgee, nice bit of culture with your icon!

The 1st time my friend thought he was going to get lucky, I went with him to the pharmacy to get condoms.
I told him they came in sizes. It was really hard to listen to him.
"I know I'm not a small."
"I don't think I'm large."
He finally decided that medium was the best way to go.
He went to the pharmacist in the back, an older man,
and asked for a medium-sized condom.
When the pharmacist told him they came in one size, I finally fell on the floor.
Condoms: 4.50
Look on friend's face: priceless.

5:09 pm

hurshy

ugh, too hard to change. black will do.

5:09 pm

MaryJo24

Ch - ne 5/10 - make the ne 4/4 plural
se 6/21 - make your se 5/12 plural

5:10 pm

cybernan

ne 5/10: ne 4/4 with a double letter

5:10 pm

artlady

But hurshy, dark chocolate is the best, anyway! ;-)

5:10 pm

cybernan

sorry, forgot to say -- make it plural

5:11 pm

hurshy

5:13 pm

5:48 pm

snowyowl

5:53 pm

artlady

Thank you Pav, now I just need the other me 7/32...

mamabear

Just caught me Babbler.... now I'm looking for the screen name in the puzzle.... and what's this about bananananana day tomorrow?

5:54 pm

joelgee

y'know, one of my major concerns is the continuous strain on the space-time continuum, especially when you consider the multiverse and all.

5:55 pm

artlady

Got that pesky bugger!

5:55 pm

Yoink

Thanks Babbler, and you too :)

5:55 pm

Babbler

LOL Mamabear!! Oh you'lll never guess!! Miya is having a sex education class tomorrow, so I thought, in honour of that, we should surprise her.. !!

5:57 pm

mamabear

Oh BTW, Babbler, would you tell these lovely people that Naked Friday was not instigated by mwah? Now the banana thing... that could be fun too..... mmmm but ALSO not my fault!!!

5:57 pm

tutti

;)

5:57 pm

hurshy

it's not joel's fault - i'm the one who brought up the continuum

5:58 pm

snowyowl

no joel - as you must have noticed by now I don't think much at all! I have been advised, by people who know about these things, not to do anything that hurts! lol

5:58 pm

mamabear

thanks tutti!
*wink*

5:58 pm

Anj

Anubyte, je prÃ©fÃ¨re votre expression. Elle retentit mieux.

Sherry, I hope this is right. I could be translating the kama sutra for all the good my french is :/

5:58 pm

faeriekae

Happy Monday Evening ---- Faerie Hugs to all.

5:58 pm

joelgee

yes.
I don't want to be held responsible for the continuous strain on the space-time continuum.
Furthermore, I'm not cleaning up afterwards.

5:58 pm

tutti

you're welcome

5:59 pm

Babbler

Mamabear, well, what it was was when you and Torgone were having a banter, and he called you MamaBARE................at the same time, BAggo and I were talking about That Scene in the musical Hair............ So Anj observed we were talking nudity, and that's how it happened!

everyone agree?

5:59 pm

Anubyte

wich one Anj.? Fart? sure it's make more noise :D

5:59 pm

Anj

See? The log is sabotaging my french attempts :/

5:59 pm

5:59 pm

Sherry

5:59 pm

Schroeder

Sherry

Anj: lol!
Hi Faerie!

6:00 pm

joelgee

I wonder if anybody has really checked those warp drives carefully.

6:00 pm

mamabear

Is that your story and you're stickin with it????

6:00 pm

faeriekae

Schroeder..your looking wonderful tonight

6:01 pm

hurshy

they did. don't you remember the episode where they realized the warp drives were damaging it and they had to impose a speed limit of warp 5 except in utter emergencies?

6:01 pm

Deutsch

hi faerie!

6:01 pm

Babbler

there's always re-reading the log, Mamabear!!! I've been meaning to read it again, as it was such a funny night!
:D

6:01 pm

mamabear

Yes I agree with Babbler, faerie!!! It kind of looks like a smiley ketchup alien

6:02 pm

hurshy

i put a star trek problem on my precalc final, involving warp 9. confused the he4 out of the students.

6:02 pm

renfield

firey faerie smilie - lights up this empty office building

Babbler

6:02 pm

joelgee

I must've been in a different part of the multiverse that evening, but I'm not surprised.
Some things never change.

6:02 pm

snowyowl

Hi Faerie - could you sprinkle a little magic over this grid please?

6:02 pm

Anubyte

8:22 pm

kristin

DarleenMB

My 15 seconds of fame... this week's Entertainment Weekly magazine arrived in the mail today and with it MY short-but-sweet letter to the editor re: Jarhead. Not only that but they used a pull-quote from it at the top of the column with a pic of the "Jarhead" issue.

Now I'm slightly embarassed 'cause I was being a bit of a smart *ss.

8:51 pm

LeslieAnn

exciting darleen... what did you say?

8:52 pm

DarleenMB

Ahem. "I'd planned to skip JARHEAD, since I"m not a war-movie fan, but the photos of Jake Byllenhaal -- especially the one where he's wearing a Santa hat, dog tags, a weapon, and not much else -- changed miy mind. Ho ho ho and merry Christmas to you, too!"

8:53 pm

DarleenMB

oops that's Gyllenhaal.

8:53 pm

LeslieAnn

haha, that is funny. good one, yes i remember that picture....

8:54 pm

DarleenMB

Yeah. Then I had to go and shoot off my big mouth. Oh well. Maybe nobody around here reads it.

8:54 pm

Eva

So what's this from earlier on the log re 12/12 being a "magical"birthday? Curious 'cause it's mine - I suppose it was magical for me.

What's with the bananas?

8:55 pm

8:56 pm

LeslieAnn

8:57 pm

Eva

8:57 pm

DarleenMB

LOL LeslieAnn, really I WAS working. The drooling was LAST week.

BTW, now I'll be singing about lions and tigers in Kenya, thanks a LOT. :-P

8:58 pm

LeslieAnn

8:58 pm

DarleenMB

Thanks Eva. It was declared smiley day yesterday so thought I'd dress up. Jake'll be back tomorrow.

9:54 pm

LeeMc

All weather is good for babble.

9:54 pm

GreyWoulf

Pretty much any weather is good for Babble -- esp. after the sun has set :)

9:55 pm

Smeltzdog

*hovering again*

9:56 pm

GreyWoulf

Hey Smeltz! How'd you do yesterday?

9:57 pm

Jammersbabe

Thanks Mab! Got it!!!!

9:58 pm

Smeltzdog

I didn't finish...I have been exausted. I doubt I will finish tonight...just got started.

9:58 pm

LeeMc

Why don't you guys just say the word. I mean their going to get it any way!

10:01 pm

GreyWoulf

LeeMc - Because that takes away from the fun of the game and because we don't want to tick off any of the many other players who aren't active in the chat log

10:01 pm

renfield

reminder - babbler declared tomorrow bananas day

10:01 pm

LeeMc

Oh my I made a grammer mistake! My life is over!

10:01 pm

GreyWoulf

Bananas Day?

10:01 pm

mab

May I have clues for NE 5 and 6 please, please, please. (have everything that looks like you could catch a fish with it).

10:03 pm

GreyWoulf

would if I could, mab-- I only have 59 words right now, so soon I'll be asking for help as well ;)

10:03 pm

LeeMc

Got it! It is more fun that way. Does anyone listen to music while doing these fantastic puzzles? I do I have my mp3 player pumped up.

10:04 pm

LeslieAnn

mab, they're built off of ne + what you say when you can't think of anything else to say

10:04 pm

torgone

LeeMc - The only real point of the game is the challenge of finding the words. Clues, hints etc. still force you to find the word yourself. Posting grid words in the chat is not appreciated, not good form, and will get you banned if you do it repeatedly.

10:04 pm

mab

torgone, matey, heeeelllllp!

10:05 pm

GreyWoulf

torgone - Love the new look, Arrr!

10:06 pm

torgone

Three words off that.
Computer being bad. May have to spank it.

10:09 pm
