Hi movieman

5:09 am

I think the smaller ones are the hardest..

5:10 am

FMitch

5:13 am

lola100

Hi guys! : )

Hey punster! Long time, no see! how you keeping?? : )

5:19 am

movieman

He seems to be the most popular Futurama character.....

5:21 am

Adsman

Ah how do you know im not lola Lol......

If only we could the stories im sure I could tell

5:22 am

lola100

Hi movieman! I did think about being Leela but I liked this one of Bender : )

5:23 am

Punster

Pretty good Lola. I have seen you on occasion, though you always leave before I can say hi.

5:23 am

lola100

adsman, as a child I lived on a farm and we had a telephone exchange, so you could pick up the phone and listen in on the conversations. It was a favourite pastime of mine and VERY educational...lol!

5:24 am

movieman

Hi lola......

yes, I happen to think that Bender is a lot cooler than that meatbag, Fry......

5:24 am

Punster

I had trouble finding pics that looked good as an icon - this is the first I found that did.

5:25 am

lola100

movieman, LOL!

punster, I'm sorry! I hate it when 'real' life calls me away from my beloved babble (how sad do I sound? lol!)

5:26 am

Adsman

I bet it bet it was Lola ; )

lola100

5:31 am

lola100

Hi exwren : ) ...and well done!

5:31 am

Adsman

I'm lucky enough to be on the business end not the residential so we dont get as many calls as we could. But hey when a business goes down all hell lets loose....

5:32 am

FMitch

Congrats Atalante and ExWren!!

5:32 am

Adsman

WTG Atalante

5:35 am

FMitch

5:35 am

lola100

5:36 am

movieman

lola, not quite......

I just couldn't see my last 7 words without using a2z.........

2. The stalk of a moss capsule.
but... you se. the table + first vowel. and make it plural in the latin way.

9:16 am

Haz1558

Good afternoon - late start for me as the grandchildren have descended on us

I'm not there yet Angelsong.

9:48 am

You need the te4 that sounds like a duck?

9:49 am

musicmom

Okay I've got them but I'm going to have to go for a def. be right back.

9:49 am

spellit

Or maybe the one that sounds like an abbrev. for telephones..

9:49 am

Angelsong

spellit..sounds like a duck? I don't get it.

9:50 am

musicmom

Do you have the one that is an acronym. It starts like the phone one but ends with plural instead of vowel.

9:51 am

Vicuna

not sounds like "quack" but sounds like a kind of duck, also a blue-geenish color

9:51 am

spellit

The te4 word sounding the same is a type of duck - in the UK anyway

9:57 am

musicmom

I'm having one of those days where the words are literally jumping out of the grid at me. Scary!

9:59 am

Angelsong

I've tried the blue-green color word (te), but it says the word does not exist in the grid.

10:00 am

musicmom

substitute one of the vowels for a duplicate

10:00 am

kristinc

angel...double the first vowel

10:00 am

Angelsong

got it, finally

10:00 am

doxy1lover

doxy1lover

d + double vowel + consonant + 3rd vowel + 4th vowel

4:43 pm

sherb

ae 6 -
ae + the end of a croco****

do 6/21 (there are 3)
two rhyme with each other...different endings for the song "hang down your head Tom Do _ _ _, hang down your head & cry...)

the third rhymes with the word in the song "If I could save time in a b______, the first thing that I'd like to do..." (I believe this was Jim Croce)...

5:51 pm

EasternBlue

oo 5 & 6

oo + opp. of dark
then the plural

9 to go and I really don't want to have to ask for help with all of them!

someone threw a rock through my window...it had oo***** in it!! just rolls off the tongue!! : )

5:54 pm

EasternBlue

outnumbered - I did when I had that many to go...

peri - no problem!! I was beggin' for clues earlier!!

5:55 pm

somehow I just feel smarter if I find them on my own, even if I'm just randomly typing. will probably be asking for all 9 in a few though. ;)

EQ7 = E + q5/16 + plural

6:08 pm

EvaNadine

6:08 pm

2nd do 6/21 - rhymes with the 1st do 6 (hang down your head - ed + the last 3 letters of the crocod>>>
the only el I have is the 4/4 (there are 4 more el's
el 5 -
el 5 the 'supreme', rich, the el ___
el 6 - plural of the rich...
el 6
eq7 - almost like a math problems...that ='s something, but change to an I instead of the a
id 6 and 7 - like your id 4 + i _ _ _ chicken for dinner last night...

Evandine - what does the 4 stand for? Four more letters? I am still kind of new to this game.
EL6 21 = EL + od4

6:30 pm

EasternBlue

kraj -

there is an "od 4" word in the puzzle

the el 6 is el + the od 4 (4 letters)

6:31 pm

mbresee

I am not that great at this yet but it is fun

6:31 pm

krajcd55

Thanks Evandine.

6:31 pm

outnumbered

the numbers stand for how many letters are in the word and how many points the word is worth. Like, an 4 means a word starting with an that is 4 letters long in all. an 4/7 would mean a 4-letter "an" word that is worth 7 points.

6:32 pm

krajcd55

Thank you.

6:33 pm

krajcd55

mbrese - it is a lot of fun. I am hooked!

6:35 pm

krajcd55

Found it - el + od 6/21

6:36 pm

EasternBlue

good luck all -

if you don't know about it, there is a 2nd letter list under the link (on the middle/right) of the grid called "Babbler's Anonymous"...Click on Babbler's Anonymous - General & then Stats...very helpful to figure out what you might still need (or go pro!! - it's a one-time fee)...

I have to go - dinner is calling (o.k. it's my hubby, but he wants dinner)...but good luck!! and welcome (we're a mostly friendly bunch....) if more 'seasoned' people are around, people are always willing to give clues too....

6:39 pm

Tim

3 word left to go.....lo5/12?.....de5/16?? and a de4???

6:40 pm

dl88

Tim - de 5/16 - another word for a god or goddess

6:41 pm

outnumbered

what all is in the stats panel? is it really that much better than just using the list from the babblers anonymous board?

6:41 pm

EasternBlue

Tim -
de 5 - godlike
lo 5 - what they call a toilet in britain lo_ + Mr. _ _ the talking horse

6:42 pm

EasternBlue

de 4 -
either -
1. stuff in bug spray
2. where you get your lunch meat
3. or where you get your lunch meat w/ last 2 letters reversed....

6:42 pm

krajcd55

Thanks EasternBlue. That is helpful.

6:43 pm

EasternBlue

outnumbered - it shows you specifically which letter the words start with....(matches the location on the grid....) I find both helpful!! (plus I love doing the icons...)

6:44 pm

outnumbered

you mean it will tell you if an e word starts with an e in the top row vs. the bottom? wow! that would totally help.

6:45 pm

Tim

thanks EB got two of them still working on the godlike clue.......Arrgh... : )

6:47 pm

xena

I put a word in and it's not showing up on the board. It says I already used that word. Strange.

6:48 pm

EasternBlue

outnumbered - yup...(that's why I like it)....
________
|E| T| Y|

|3|4|5|

( as a bad example - this would be 3 with that e, 4 with the t, 5 with the y...)

(but the grid is much prettier!!

6:48 pm

EasternBlue

xena - that happens sometimes...try refreshing...

o.k....really have to go now...

I assume you mean the grid, Wolfie? LOL.

It's yesterday's grid to me. So, just howl if you need any clues.

9:35 pm

GreyWoulf

How are you today, harp?

9:35 pm

Jacula

Hi Harp!

9:36 pm

Jacula

Would you like the stats, akwilson?

Jacula

It's gone all qu5/16 again!

9:42 pm

harpjane

I'm good gw, and you?
We're getting ready for what is supposed to be the coldest week of the year. It's about 0 F right now. That's supposed to be the HIGH tomorrow.
I look forward to wearing outfits that I can't usually wear!

9:42 pm

akwilson4

I guess. I'm stuck at the moment with only 2 words to go. :(

9:42 pm

Jacula

Harp - hat kind of outfits would those be, then?

9:43 pm

GreyWoulf

Sorry, Jac -- IMing with Mamabear :)

harp -- I just have trouble imagining functioning at those temps!

9:43 pm

Jacula

Well, akw, I could give you the day's stats, but it might be more helpful to know which 2 words you still need. There again, you might not know until I give you the stats...

That should narrow it down a bit.

9:45 pm

Jacula

AKW - Are you a fan of Count Duckula, the vegetarian vampire, too?

9:46 pm

akwilson4

Can't say that I've heard of the Vege Duck.

9:47 pm

Jacula

Oh, you don't know what you're missing. He's hilarious. His Nanny is the funniest. She enters rooms through walls, knocking them down in the process. She can't quite work out how to open doors.

9:48 pm

GreyWoulf

harp -- all is well here, though we are all suffering from lack of sleep due to having the newborn in the house & the change in routine with the start of the new job (which I am loving, BTW) --- the past couple of nights, even though she has a cold -- Kristianna has been reading her bedtime books to me while I catch a catnap!

9:49 pm

harpjane

glad to hear it gw
jac-i am referring to an extremely warm coat. There are some winters when I never get it out of the closet!

9:49 pm

Jacula

Wolfie - glad you're enjoying the new job. What books has K been reading to you?

9:49 pm

Jacula

Harp - I guess it must be fur or skin then?

9:50 pm

Jacula

REFRESH (F5) to see Duckula's Nanny.

9:52 pm

GreyWoulf

Jac - Fox in Socks, Dick & Jane, -- all her usuals :)

9:53 pm

Jacula

Has she got a copy of 'Where The Wild Thing Are'? That's wonderfully surreal.

9:54 pm

GreyWoulf

She loves Max!!

9:54 pm

Jacula

akwilson - Have you found your 2 missing words yet?

9:55 pm

Jacula

Max - the little boy with the moustache.

9:55 pm

Jacula

I guess she finished with Eric's 'The Very Hungry Caterpillar' a while ago?

9:56 pm

GreyWoulf

She got it as a board book for her 2nd Xmas from my friends :)

9:57 pm

GreyWoulf

to5?

9:57 pm

Jacula

I hope it had all the holes and pop-ups in it, Wolfie. The butterfly is lovely.

9:57 pm

Jacula

to5 - pl. of to4 before it.

9:58 pm

Jacula

(Add the 4th vowel in the vowel list to the end of that for the to6 - city in Spain.)

9:59 pm

GreyWoulf

oops -- meant the to6 -- didn't realise I had the 5 already :)

10:00 pm

Jacula

Harp - I'm not anti skin coats. I won't be chucking red paint at you.

10:01 pm

GreyWoulf

nevermind

10:02 pm

Jacula

never mind what, Wolfie?

10:03 pm

GreyWoulf

the to6 -- figured it out on my own -- I didn't read your post all the way through to see your clue for it :)

10:05 pm

Jacula

Silly Wolfie! I'll let you off since you are suffering from sleep deprivation and the trauma of a new job.:-)

10:06 pm

Jacula

I'm mjust listening to a great cd that came free with Classic Rock mag today. I did buy a strange collection of magazines in WH Smith today - Classic Rock, WebUser and Woman's Weekly. LOL.

10:08 pm

Jacula

webUser has sent me to some 3-d picture sites earlier on - I've been crossing my eyes and peering at the screen to get the hidden pics to pop out. It's easier to do it from books!

10:14 pm

Jacula

Anyone need any more clues?

10:16 pm

Jacula

*Jac sniffs her underarms to make sure she's not driving people away. Nope. They smell fine. Deodorant is working.*

10:19 pm

Jacula

*Jac curls up into foetal ball and starts to recite that poem... 'Nobody loves me, everybody hates me, think I'll go up the garden and eat worms....'

10:20 pm

GreyWoulf

I'm getting there Jac -- I don't multitask well so I am trying to chat, grid hunt, compare vs. 2nd letter list, and IM all at the same time -- and I never mastered the ability to juggle!

10:21 pm

Jacula

Not that I'm attention seeking, not in any way whatsoever! ;-/

10:21 pm

GreyWoulf

Just like I have never been able to get the 3-D pics to work for me!

10:22 pm

Jacula

Wolfie - I'm a crap juggler, too. So was my ex-hubby, which is why it used to drive me nuts when he could never pass the fruit bowl without juggling (and dropping) the fruit!

10:22 pm

ukfizz

hi... any clues for Te/5 please

10:25 pm

Jacula

Wolfie - there are several techniques for seeing those pics and they do work, believe me. You can try putting your nose on the screen and slowly moving away, a better method is slowly crossing your eyes to look at the end of your nose and then slowly uncrossing them, and looking at the pic again. It needs a bit of patience, but if you let your eyes relax the image suddenly POPS OUT at you and then, even if you blink, you won't lose it. Have you never done candle visualisation? It's the same technique.

10:26 pm

hokie carla

there are two, not sure which one you need.

one is a plural of a te4 in the grid.

the other is a plural of another word, a fungus or something

10:27 pm

hokie carla

any clues on the eq 5?
TIA

10:27 pm

Jacula

te5/10. 2 of them First is plural of the te4/4 before it. Second is the same but uses 2 diff vowels at the end.

10:28 pm

ukfizz

e + english pound slang

10:28 pm

Jacula

eq5 - e + English sland for Â£1 sterling.

10:29 pm

GreyWoulf

Jac -- have never done much visualisation at all -- whenever I try -- the opposite outcome from what I desire always occurs :D

And I know all the techniques for the 3d pics -- I was working for a bookstore when they first showed up -- I just can't get them to work

10:29 pm

Jacula

*the 'd' was a 'g' and the weird A thing was English.

10:29 pm

ukfizz

te4 please?

10:30 pm

Jacula

Wolfie - the technique for the pics is to just relax and let go. Not an easy thing for a wolf do do though, I guess?

10:31 pm

Help GreyWoulf or Jacula! I type in the last word that I need and the box will say "You have already used that word", but it won't register in my wordlist. I can only get credit for 86 words even though I have typed in all 87. What do I do?

10:44 pm

GreyWoulf

Kimm -- try refreshing -- that should fix it :)

10:44 pm

Jacula

Kimm - what is the last word you seem to need?

10:45 pm

Kimm

I'll try it GreWoulf. Thanks!

10:46 pm

Jacula

Kimm - F5 refreshes my browser, but it is different on some machines. There should be a refresh button somewhere though. Try that.

10:47 pm

Kimm

It worked! You guys saved the day again. Thanks again.

10:47 pm

GreyWoulf

Anytime, Kimm :)

10:47 pm

Kimm, thanks for coming back on that. The outdoor swimming pool had you foxed then? Would you believe that there are more of those per population 'thingey' than anywhere else? Yes, in Iceland! I know it's true because I've been there. They are lovely people, but mad people!

10:55 pm

Yup, Ren. That was sexy Fonz Wolf!

I am doing fine -- Seb just started with a cough today -- no other symptoms -- Kristianna is driving us nuts with her refusal to eat --- she has a few bite but then flat out refuses to take another bite -- drove Mom crazy both yesterday and today -- I caught on today and was able to trick her into a bit more -- She should be fine by Sat :)

11:04 pm

Jacula

Please don't talk to me about blueberries! Planning to make muffins later, I bought a pack of dried blueberries here and was charged Â£1.88 for 75g! I have 2 blueberry bushes in the garden and have pounds of the frozen article. But, being a bit new to muffin making, I didn't realise frozen ones could be used and not make the muffins soggy. But my darling daughter, who works for Muffin Break (an Aussie company) right now, tells me THEY do! SH4/5!

11:04 pm

was it believable?

11:06 pm

And, incidentally, if K isn't that kind of female right now, then give her some leeway. Giving birth to a son sends a woman's hormones going in all the wrong directions. She may not be compos mentis a a while. She soon will be though!

11:12 pm

lo5/12 - past tense of British 'toilet'. 'I must just got to the ***!'

11:20 pm

GreyWoulf

LPN -- Licensed Practical Nurse -- she is one step below a fully Registered Nurse meaning she cannot operate as autonomously as an RN does at times -- but she is still an angel of ministering :) -- I have no idea what the British equivalent would be

11:23 pm

Jacula

i guess RNS is the equivalent here, Wolfie.
