12:02 am

12:02 am
mrpresident

I was told today I was quicker than the dead! How do I take that!??
12:02 am
mamabear

you did extremely well, GW for the short amount of time you had!!!! A very good job, ol' chap!
12:02 am
kristinc

well done anyhow GW, I think my computer has a delay btw (in case no one can tell at this point!)
12:02 am
mamabear

not sure, mrp.... but doesn't sound like a compliment!
12:02 am
GreyWoulf

Thanks for all the great help --- I got a lot further than I thought I would -- I figured I would miss by at least 20

(the fact that Seb stayed asleep the whole time didn't hurt either ;D )
12:03 am
mamabear

any guesses on word count?
12:03 am
kristinc

okay, I just stuck around to help GW and others so off to bed for me!
12:03 am

Hi everyone! :)

At first glance, looks like this grid could use a few more r's ;)
12:04 am
renfield

179
12:04 am
mrpresident

put me down for $10... I guess 145
12:04 am
GreyWoulf

179 and the breakdown is remarkably similar to yesterdays :)
12:05 am
mrpresident

oh... ren already had it!!
12:05 am
Mooog

*Hint* Dan Quayle (politician) would have a doozy with this one.
12:05 am
mamabear

cute icon, rennie!
12:06 am
renfield

i'll take that 10 bucks - as gettie lee sez - hey 10 bucks is 10 bucks!!!

GreyWoulf

My leg is numb -- Seb is still sleeping :D
12:17 am
GreyWoulf

12:22 am
doxy1lover

have a good night all.
12:23 am
ch1212

morning all -- mr. p, like your icon. I found mine through google -- it's a morphed photo of both their faces.
12:23 am
mamabear

g'nite doxy... sleep well & dream deep!
12:23 am
GreyWoulf

Sleep Well, doxy (*Hug*)
12:23 am
renfield

later doxy!!!
12:26 am
mamabear

29 a's???????????????? Cruel.... just cruel.....
12:27 am
mrpresident

ch12... they look the same as eachother!!
12:27 am
Krys10

chalk it up to another unfair Enable/Babble event: won't accept "realtor"
12:28 am
cybernan

I don't like this puzzle -- the e isn't in the right spot and we need another one!
12:28 am
ch1212

I know - scarey! They both have faces that are very similar in bone structure, so morphed together is just ... very, very strange.
12:28 am
mamabear

you're right, kris10!!! and that REALLY is a word!
12:29 am
renfield

A's luv you mama.... there's 30 p's..why do they put peas in my chicken pot pies????
12:30 am
mrpresident

ch12... 'they' look like vanessa williams!
12:30 am
mamabear

because there has to be something green or they would look colorless!
12:31 am
renfield

ch12 - they also look like a daughter of a friend of mine......
12:31 am
GreyWoulf

and broccoli gives you gas!
12:31 am
ch1212

ohmigosh, you're right! I wonder if their baby will grow up to look like this? Frankly, the morph makes them look (searches memory for that word that means unisexual) uh... you know what I mean.
12:32 am
renfield

LOL wolfie...and peas don't.....but why? why do they put peas in my chicken pot pie???
12:32 am
mrpresident

grey... what have I given my poor children!!
12:33 am
GreyWoulf

because if they didn't, it would be 'ot ie' and who would want to order that in a restaurant? ;D
12:34 am
mrpresident

hermaphrodite... that is what they should call their baby!!
12:34 am
mamabear

LOL, GW!
12:34 am
renfield

LOL wolfie!!!! you have answered the riddle!!!
12:35 am
GreyWoulf

Gotta go -- Kristianna is crying -- something she never does in the middle of the night :\
12:35 am
renfield

later wolfie....
12:35 am
mrpresident

... and her nickname could be aphrodite to be kinder!
12:36 am
mamabear

hope everything is ok... GW.....
12:37 am
renfield

aphrodite pitt...?????
12:37 am
ch1212

ANDROGENOUS! That's the word -- meaning no particular sex at all, which is odd considering that individually they are both considered very sexy. Mmm. Interesting. Okay, back to our regularly scheduled programming :)
12:38 am
ch1212

OK Mr. P I must admit, I like yours better -- especially the aphrodite name!
12:38 am
mrpresident

... JOLIE-Pitt
12:38 am
mamabear

good nite, all!!!! See you tomorrow! (or should I say "later today"!!!)
happy babbling!
12:39 am
mrpresident

GreyWoulf

Kristianna just had her first nightmare -- took a min to figure it out, but I did -- I read her a story, sang her bedtime songs again and all is right in her world again :)
1:02 am
renfield

good going dad!
1:02 am
mrpresident

grey... that is not uncommon... My daughter got bad at one stage, really screaming!
1:03 am
mrpresident

Then she started sleep walking... opened the fridge one night, squatted and peed in the vege cooler!

Hi :)
How's the grid today? Found a 6 right away, but now only small ones.
2:48 am
elmer

I have 90 so far and they are all 4, 5, and 6's
It's slow going for me
2:49 am
sherb

most words are straightforward, but there's a few tricky ones to slow you down...
2:49 am
renfield

i've been watching a t-rex doc...so i keep losing my words....
2:49 am
sprite

21, 2 6s and for the rest only small ones. Looks like a rather tough one today!
2:51 am
sherb

only one 7 so far...
2:52 am
sprite

What's the team today? I like guessing, but sometimes... is it faces?
2:53 am
sherb

it's brad and angelina...
2:54 am

Argh, 3 8s and 8 7s and I haven't found a single one of them yet!
3:05 am

:) found my first 7.
3:06 am

71 words and still nothing above 6. I am not impressed by myself today ;)
3:07 am

3:09 am

It would probably help if I could stop seeing 'frontal' all the time. Well, actually I am having fun. At least I know there are 11 big words there that I will find somewhere today... the hunt continues :)
3:12 am
sprite

F7/48! :D The one that's a combo with 6/33. There is hope for me ;)
3:14 am
Ho Hum

p6/27 then alt sp for p7/40
3:15 am

Hello everyone!
3:15 am

Hi SweetTooth!
Ho Hum, I only have a P6/21 so far. Thanks for the tip :)
3:17 am

hey ho hum and sweet tooth....
3:17 am
sherb

nice p7/36 - paragon of chivalry...
3:18 am
sherb

hi Ho Hum and SweetTooth :D :D
3:19 am
SweetTooth

Sprite, did you notice that you can get the F 7/48 from the upper right corner and the bottom left? Also R 7/28 from the bottom left and the middle right.
3:20 am
sprite

Not yet, SweetTooth, I am really being stupid today. Not to mention blind.
Sherb, now I want to have 'paragon' too! :P
3:21 am
renfield

nice sherb!
3:21 am
sprite

I just tried 'optain'.
Time for coffee, I think.
3:29 am
sherb

p7/40 and p8/55 - things of no importance...
3:35 am
Angelsong

shertb, that clue went straight over my head.
3:36 am
Angelsong

*sherb...sorry for the typo. I shouldn't try to type this early.
3:37 am
sprite

Found the chivalry 7 :) :)
3:40 am
sherb

another p8/55 - area of land
3:41 am
sherb

woo, my final P uses the Z... :)
3:41 am
sprite

Some strange words there in that P-department. P7/32 too. Starts very cold.
3:43 am
davetins

p5/22 with a z in
3:46 am
SweetTooth

Sherb, is the P 8 related to the P 7/40 that is thick soup?
3:47 am
sprite

One P8 is, only needs one letter inserted.
3:48 am
renfield

mab will like that 5p w/ a z
3:48 am
sherb

SweetTooth = no, it's sort of related to the p4 and 5 that are about peeling fruit and veg... but different meaning...
3:49 am
sprite

Related only in appearance, I mean, not in meaning.
3:52 am
SweetTooth

Thanks for the help, finally got it.
3:53 am
sprite

Do you have F8/65? It is similar.
3:55 am
Angelsong

the f8/65 is a word I come across in my job, believe it or not. I have the p that is a thick soup, but the things of no importance and the area of land elude me.
3:56 am
sherb

oh well, time to get dressed and do Saturday things... later all :D
3:57 am
renfield

later sherb....i should either finish my report...or go to sleep - only....i don't want to- so there!!!
4:00 am
SweetTooth

Sprite, how was your daughter's birthday party?
4:03 am
sprite

Bye sherb!
Angelsong, they are a bit odd indeed.
The area of land-P is (in form) an extension of the soup. Double one for the 7, then insert one for the 8.
The things of no importance are no common words.
Try this: use the first P5/12. Then take E5/14, change last letter and make an overlay with the P5. That gives you P8/55. Then play with the ending to make it into the P7/40.
4:04 am
sprite

SweetTooth: a great success! Daughter and guests were really enthusiastic, as was husband, and we all made beautiful things. How were things on your end?
4:06 am
sprite

Or wait... yours is still to come... or was it mrP's? I am confused, I think... sorry!
4:07 am
mrpresident

it is mine sprite, and still to come
4:08 am
SweetTooth

Sprite, Glad to hear it was a success!
The weather has been beautiful lately which could not have come sooner because I was about to pull my hair out after a month of rain. I'm from California and it was finally getting to me. My hubby is in San Francisco this weekend so I'm babbling the night away.
4:10 am
mrpresident

still no babanon stats... will have to go to bed and get the early edition of babble... see you all then!!

BYE (wave)
4:11 am
sprite

I am single too this weekend, my love has taken the kids on a canoe trip :) Time to babble for mom.
Glad to hear the weather is improving.
MrP, sorry again and sleep well!
4:11 am
SweetTooth

Bye mrp!
4:14 am
SweetTooth

Sprite, are you enjoying having the house to yourself?
Canoeing sounds like fun! I'll have to try it some time.
4:16 am
Angelsong

sprite...you lost me completely, I'm afraid. I still need the E5/14
4:19 am
sprite

SweetTooth: oh yes, I love being alone for a while. Used to go canoeing too, it is wonderful. So very peaceful, seeing nature from the water. Can't really go anymore since the birth of my daughter, so they go with dad and I enjoy some peace and quiet at home.

Angelsong: they are really hard to give clues for, sorry. E5/14 is a fungus.
4:21 am
Angelsong

just found the e5/14, before your clue, sprite
4:23 am
sprite

Okay, I will try another approach, let's see if we can take it from here:
First part: 2 letter word for dad.
Second part: behind, backside, minus one vowel (= 3 letters)
Last part: other word for disappeared, minus last letter (= 3 letters).
That is the 8. For the 7, make greek plural ending.
4:24 am
sprite

WTG Angelsong :)
4:26 am
SweetTooth

P 7/40 & related P 8/55 - a composition derived from a larger work.

2nd P7 - alternate spelling of thick soup, add another t.
4:27 am
Angelsong

I got them, Sprite!
4:30 am
dalmatian5

Do you have a clue for the p 7/36?
4:30 am
sprite

Yeah! They are strange, don't you think?
4:31 am
dalmatian5

I also need the p 7/32. Any help would be appreciated.
4:32 am
sprite

dalmatian: someone gave a nice clue: paragon of chivalry. Think loyal follower.
4:32 am
SweetTooth

sorry, i don't have that one yet.
4:35 am
sprite

P7/32: object that results when an electron in the conduction band of a crystalline insulator or semiconductor deforms the lattice in its vicinity.
(Now you know!)
Start with the P5/12 "from a very cold area". Then use "not off" as ending.
4:37 am
Angelsong

Sprite, I nearly choked trying to pronounce those P's.
4:38 am
sprite

LOL! Glad I am not the only one who's got difficulty with them.
4:38 am
SweetTooth

thanks sprite! still need two more p's.....ugh!
4:38 am
dalmatian5

Thanks! Wow, I hope you looked up that definition and did not just have it at the tip of your tongue! lol
4:40 am
sprite

Dalmatian: I even had to google for its def :)
4:41 am
dalmatian5

Well, that makes me feel a bit better.
4:43 am
Angelsong

I can hardly wait for dinner tonight. I am making homemade enchiladas.
4:43 am
sprite

I always feel proud when my habit of trying all endings on all words results in a new word :D :D
Costs a lot of 'oopses', but sometimes it pays off.
4:45 am
sprite

*hops on a plane and joins Angelsong for dinner*
4:46 am
Angelsong

Sweet Tooth: can you give another clue for the p7/40 and 8/55?
4:46 am
Angelsong

LOL, Sprite..you are more than welcome. I love to cook, and I love making Tex-mex.
4:47 am
SweetTooth

what time is dinner? :-)
4:47 am
sprite

You will have a babble meal tonight, Angel :D
4:50 am
Angelsong

funny thing is, making enchiladas looked easy when I watched someone do it..but they always kind of scared me for some reason. Then, I found a recipe I could work with, and no more fear.
4:51 am
sprite

Sounds great! :)
Got to go for now, happy hunting and thanks for the great company :)
4:51 am
Angelsong

Sprite: I have the thick soup, with the double consonants in the middle. Still need the p that is an area of land, I think.
4:53 am
sprite

Insert a letter right after the P!
4:54 am
SweetTooth

P 7/40 - start with Pa 5/12 add the the abrev. for the state of Georgia. For the P 8/55 change the ending to not off but **.
4:54 am
Angelsong

ty! got it now
4:55 am
SweetTooth

Oh good!
5:03 am
elmer

could someone give another clue for p 7/36 and p 8 55
thanks
5:04 am
Haz1558

5:05 am
sandr

thanku haz,i see your on early today
5:06 am
Haz1558

The pa8/55 - use pa5/12 (one who peels vegetables) combined with first three letters of word meaning away or disappeared

I wouldn't have gotten it from that either, being American as well. But it's on my mental list of Babble-Words

just big down under! and here ooooh
7:56 am
SunnFlower

amanda do you know why realtor isn't a babble word?
7:58 am
fit1

the bottom left R is a word that is used to mean throw up. Yuck :)
7:59 am
amandacath

I typed my fingers silly trying to get it accepted, but no matter how many times I tried, Babble just wouldn't take it. Only thing I can figure, after checking the definition to make sure I wasn't imagining words, is that Enable thinks its a proper noun. Who knows?
8:00 am
fit1

I think realtor is considered a proper noun for babble. In my book, that makes lawyer, doctor, etc. proper nouns. But Babble takes those.
8:01 am
SunnFlower

strange that it's a proper noun
8:03 am
amandacath

Enable works in mysterious ways. What's in it is as strange as what's not in it.

have a girlfriend living in Hamburg been there a couple of times,its a nice city with a lot of history
10:21 am
Miyavi_fan

wow...it must be great to be able to speak two languages fluently! I speak bits of french, bits of german (er...or not o_o) and I write Japanese (hiragana, anyway), but I'm nowhere near fluent!
10:21 am
amandacath

Yeah, it's ok if you can deal with the winters. Although Chicago winters are just as bad, I suppose. What does your girlfriend do here? Maybe I know her...
10:24 am
amandacath

Miya - it has it's advantages. Although I tend to say I speak 2 half-languages. After a while they kinda get mixed up. Especially when I get irate at Babble for not accepting what I type in, until I remember it's a German word and not an English one.

*basks in praise* XD

oooh...Peri...my envy-waves are now radiating through your computer screen!
10:33 am
amandacath

Actually I think Chicago winters are probably worse - we get a bit of the tail-end of the Gulf Stream, so it generally doesn't get as cold here as in the midwest US. It's the lack of daylight that really gets me. I don't know how Scandanavians manage!
10:34 am
Miyavi_fan

Does Norway count as part of Scandanavia? (asks the girl who's doing a GCSE in geography) if so, I may not be able to see to ski :/
10:34 am

I don't have any aptitude for languages, except that I often have to sing them. I have sung in Latin, French, German, Maori, Hungarian and Maltese to name a few, but they are all learnt 'parrot' fashion.

10:37 am
Miyavi_fan

Wow, Wren! That's part of the way I learn Japanese, through singing! (even though I'm a visual learner...weird -_-) When did you sing in Maori?!
10:38 am
amandacath

He's right, Wren. Tsk, tsk! Yeah, Miya, Norway is Scandanavia, but it must be light enough to ski there since so many skiers come from there. Dunno, and don't plan to find out - I'm as far north as I'm ever going to go!

EvaNadine

the only other friend who wants to go cant leave til late and its a few hours to get there
2:54 pm

That's the pits! Ask an acquaintance you'd like to get to know better. Maybe you'll make a good friend on the drive over and can forsake the fair-weather friend.

2:56 pm

Hi T-Owl : )
2:56 pm

just my friends band...

absolutely no one else...id asked everyone in the first place. even the BF has other plans tonight -- he made them since i had plans + now hes busy.
2:58 pm

3:02 pm
mamabear

Alrighty then, Anj hand over the mascara to Evanadine..... Evanadine, make them REALLY long.... real "Battable".... (is the BF persuadable?) Long lashes, maybe throw in a tear for effect? Whatdaya think?
3:02 pm
Anj

That's my thought T-Owl...

EvaN, if you do decide to go make sure the roads are clear and speak to your friend in the band before you leave to check that they will deffo be there...you could even angle for a place to stay for the night in case the snow decides to stick...

3:58 pm

Well...I was considerably older than the crowd, but they were good to me. Age has it's advantages. These young girls would tell me "oh, that guy is so cute". I would just amble over and engage them in conversation. Usually starting with " you look familiar. I think I know your parents" They'd open right up and I'd introduce the girls and the rest is history. It kinda sounds like I was a pimp, but; it really wasn't like that. I was just facilatating. And of course I was into a wee bourbie ;)

School dances used to be relatively tame affairs. Then the craze started for full make-up, hair appointments, flowers for mothers, stretch limousines etc. We blame the American influence, of course!

evanadine - have you read my Dreams poem in my bio?
7:06 pm

7:09 pm
EasternBlue

who said that quote??
7:10 pm
musicmom

mama that is a beautiful poem. It would make a wonderful children's book. Don't know how to go about it though. I think the company I do direct sales for should buy it from you. We do books, cds and manipulatives for children.

8:06 pm
renfield

wasn't the us pair beautiful!!!
8:06 pm
musicmom

Mama - my husband was just asking the same question. <g> But then again why do we clean our houses when they just get dirty again. We could use the same reasoning.

8:10 pm
musicmom

8:11 pm
mamabear

How anyone can spin in the air like that and land on ice skates is beyond me!
8:12 pm
musicmom

this chinese skater is making me nervous
8:12 pm
72 Temple Owl

need a break - bbl!
8:13 pm
renfield

the 2nd chinese group?
8:13 pm
renfield

i mean the 2nd chinese pair?
8:14 pm
musicmom

Yes because of his ankle. I don't know that I would have trusted him to throw me up in the air like that. EEK!
8:14 pm
mamabear

yes - the couple whose man has a torn achilles
8:16 pm
renfield

me either - mez had to have his achilles grafted and he has never walked the same since....
8:20 pm
musicmom

lo 5?
8:20 pm
Vicuna

lo5- sounds like Caesar's wreath (girl's name), but spelled lo
8:21 pm
mamabear

lo 5 = l + or 4
8:22 pm
musicmom

ty thought I had tried that
8:23 pm
Vicuna

You probably had. There's absolutely no doubt that sometimes it sneakily refuses to admit that you typed in a word before!
8:23 pm
musicmom

Thanks Vicuna that makes me feel better<G>
8:25 pm
mamabear

It happens to me, too, mm!
8:26 pm
renfield

me too also as well!!!!
8:27 pm
musicmom

Ahhhhhh so it's the grid's fault.
8:27 pm
mamabear

8:28 pm
renfield

right - never us...no not us -we are so goooddddd 8)
8:28 pm
musicmom

I love this line of reasoning.
8:29 pm
Vicuna

Well, come on. You KNOW it's true!
8:29 pm
musicmom

Of course it is true.I would hang out with people who aren't most excellent wordsters.
8:29 pm
EasternBlue

in the comics today, Cathy reasoned that it was the chocolate's fault she at it...I completely understood her logic!! : )
8:30 pm
mamabear

Well of course... you can't just go around teasing a person like that and not expect them to eat you!
(oooohh, that sounded bad, didn't it?)
8:30 pm
musicmom

Oh most definitely Eb.
8:30 pm
renfield

you know it's true - WE didn't ask for chocolate -
8:30 pm
EasternBlue

ooops...ate it...

yeesh!! typing it not my forte today!!
8:31 pm
EasternBlue

mama - ROFL!!!
8:32 pm
Vicuna

I think I just heard some chocolate calling out. It was very clearly saying "Come and get me!"
8:33 pm
mamabear

There ya go! Real life proof even as we speak!
8:33 pm
EasternBlue

Like Alice in Wonderland....
8:33 pm
renfield

my chocolate begged me to take it out of it's warpper...so i did...
8:34 pm
Vicuna

It's really only kindness to do the poor chocolate favor sometimes. (Did I say "sometimes"? I meant "always.")
8:35 pm
renfield

always vicuna...always....
8:36 pm
mamabear

Lookie what I did:

Woo Hoo Vicuna!!!
8:38 pm
renfield

8:39 pm
kristinc

hooray vicuna!
8:39 pm
musicmom

I am handquilting a quilt of 30 - 12" blocks that I swapped with people on the internet back in 1997. This quilt is for me and has been on the back burner for a LONG time. I want to get it done before Spring hits hard.
8:39 pm
mamabear

Good job Vicuna!!!! And this was a toughie!!!
Welcome back, kristinc!
8:40 pm
mamabear

That sounds beautiful, mm!! Quilting is the one craft (besides stained glass) that I have never tried. Maybe someday.
8:40 pm
EasternBlue

hint for the ga 5/20?? pretty please with chocolate on top???
8:41 pm
Vicuna

Oh I'm impressed by handquilting! I like the piecing but I actually don't like the quilting part of quilting. I always do machine quilting, and as little as I can get away with.
8:41 pm
musicmom

I really love it. I finished one for Hannah (my 5 yo) and one for my Grandma at Christmas time. Grandma's was machine quilted by a friend but I did the piecing. Babbling has distracted me from quilting.
8:41 pm
mamabear

ga 5/10 = ga + cons + hey, cutie do you come here **ten?
8:42 pm
EasternBlue

I'd love to learn quilting sometime...no space in my apartment right now, but once I can get a house....craftworld here i come!!
8:42 pm
Vicuna

ga5/20- variant spelling of a Yiddish word for scoundrel. Ends with the 4-pt consonant
8:42 pm
kristinc

mm, I have nothing in my scrapbook from August 05 on...hmm...about the time I started babble-go figure!
8:42 pm
musicmom

Actually, I started babbling because I was having trouble with my arm while I was practicing for last week's gig so much. I've been resting it all week and it finally feels like I can start again. I'm only quilitng for an hour tonight though. I want to take baby steps.
8:43 pm
Vicuna

Yeah, me too. Babble distracts me from all the things I could be doing. But to be fair, quilting distracts me from Babble, too!
8:43 pm
musicmom

eb I quilt in a hoop instead of a frame because of the space issue.
8:43 pm
musicmom

Okay. I need to babble or I'm still going to have 41 words 25 minutes from now. Can I have clues for er 5/14 and 5/10?
8:43 pm
EasternBlue

musicmom - I'd have to take a class first...I've only done a little sewing...
8:44 pm
mamabear

I used to do so much and so many different kinds of crafts. Have a whole room in the downstairs dedicated to it. Since I started working full time though, I have neglected all of it. Except for an occasional crocheted hat or scarf here and there... or baby blanket gift or something.
8:44 pm
musicmom

Come visit. I'll teach you. I've taught others.
8:44 pm
mamabear

er 5/14 - er + how many words you *** (or have)
8:45 pm
kristinc

My husband (he's kind of crafy to begin with) even gets into quilting because he likes to help me plot out the square paper or on the computer...so that is kind of fun.
8:45 pm
mamabear

I would LOVE to learn, musicmom!
8:45 pm
musicmom

Yep my husband helped me design a quilt that looks like a chess board for our room.
8:45 pm
Vicuna

er5/14 - a disease that infects rye (I think?) and makes it poisonous. Add a consonant to er4/6
er5/10 - it would be a grave er- to eat poisonous rye
8:46 pm
mamabear

mm & kristinc - that is SO cool that your husbands get involved. I envy you.
8:46 pm
EasternBlue

I don't quite see my hubby doing that...he leaves the 'creative' stuff to me....
8:46 pm
kristinc

Yep...I always promise him I"ll never tell anyone...oops and i did!
8:47 pm
EasternBlue

*whispers to kristin*

we'll never tell!!
8:47 pm
mamabear

er 5/10 - when you do something wrong, it is an er*** on your part
8:47 pm
musicmom

Thanks for the clues ladies. I'm serious. We could have a babble free weekend of sewing at my house. I have a guest room and extra sewing machines.
8:48 pm
Vicuna

Kristinc- there's actually quite a tradition of male quilters through history. They tend to go for designs with bragging value, like the most patches in the world, or something like that.
8:48 pm
mamabear

how far are you from Chicago, musicmom?
8:48 pm
kristinc

okay...focus.
Howz about the two re 5/14s? (I have the first 6/24 but not the second)
8:48 pm
musicmom

heheh that's true Vicuna. Or the quilt that uses all the blue fabric it is possible to find.
8:48 pm
EasternBlue

kristin -

kings & queens....
8:49 pm
kristinc

8:49 pm
musicmom

Mama - I'm about 8 hours. But if you're in Chicago I'll come to you! I've always wanted to come there. Greg has been but I haven't.
8:49 pm
mamabear

1. think royal OR re + another 3 letter word for girl

8:50 pm
kristinc

8:50 pm
EasternBlue

I'm a bit far from Chicago & So. Ohio...not sure if I'd be able to make it!!
8:50 pm
kristinc

thanks mama!
8:50 pm
Vicuna

re5/14 - royal
re5/14 - related to latin for queen, or to rule
re6 - add a consonant to the previous, to make it adj.
8:51 pm
mamabear

the second re 6/24 - add an l to the last re 5
8:51 pm
Vicuna

Oh, I see skating's back on, so I'm off to watch a bit. Goodnight!

GW - do I want to check "automatically sign in"???? and "sign in as invisible"?
10:56 pm
GreyWoulf

Mama -- you can change those settings whenever you want -- I do sign in automatically --- the invisible is so you can be logged in without being interupted, but since you don't have many contacts you don't have to
10:57 pm
mamabear

What does the "sign in automatically" mean or do?
10:58 pm
GreyWoulf

automatically starts up messenger when you turn on the computer -- that way if you want to IM you can do so immediately :)
10:58 pm

OK. Thanks. I will not check it. I PROMISE I will give the best clues I can in a few mins.

I've been very frustrated trying to use photos of my own for icons! I have a Mac, and use iphoto. So I used the second option on the update profile page, clicked on the browse button as instructed, went to my apps, and then to iphoto, but as soon as I click on iphoto to pull up specific photos, it places that address (the iphoto one) into th ebox, which of course doesn't work. Could someone at least marginally less inept at this than I am offer any guidance?
