4:24 am

Rlee

4:26 am

Rlee

4:26 am

Farruska

b_c only clues on the chat please, or i'll hit you with a can of evian :P

4:27 am

Miyavi_fan

4:28 am

Rlee

the other is part of the european monatin range

4:28 am

Farruska

Miyavi_fan that what others old faithfulls have said : only clues on the chat :P

4:28 am

Rlee

excuse my spelling it is telling me to go to bed, to tired to think, night all

4:29 am

b_c

Uranus isn't a word on the puzzle. I just laugh when I think about it. Uranus, uranus, uranus...it's fun to say.

4:29 am

Farruska

b_c u are so.... :P :)

4:31 am

Miyavi_fan

lol Farruska...ignore them, enjoy babble ^^

b_c...XD ah, toilet humour...what this game is all about :)

4:31 am

Farruska

argh! stuck on la5,12

4:32 am

b_c

Miyavi_fan , some people are about jesus ...I'm about toilet humor.

4:33 am

Farruska

got it :D

4:33 am

Miyavi_fan

b_c, I'm about BOTH...at my church, it's surprising how often the two coincide

4:34 am

b_c

yay, another word...in 7 minutes. I'm a bright one.

4:34 am

MarqueeMarc

This isn't funny and kind of offensive but I just typed in clit.

4:34 am

b_c

you have a surprisingly careless attitude about it. I like it.

4:35 am

Farruska

this grid has some strange words :/

4:36 am

Miyavi_fan

MarqueeMarc - what do you mean, not funny?
I find that VERY funny :)

b_c...who, me?
oooh, a rhyme ^^

Farruska, you have NO IDEA...wait until the words haen and psoae show up :/

4:37 am

MarqueeMarc

M_F it would have been funny if it had taken it!

4:37 am

Farruska

Miyavi_fan i'm on the li+s now ; and it's strannnnnnge all left behind

4:38 am

Miyavi_fan

lol Marc...as a note for the future, I've *ahem* NOTICED that babble will accept the word w*nker :)

4:38 am

amandacath

Mornin' all! How's the grid today?

4:39 am

Miyavi_fan

lol Farruska...welcome to babble XD
you just wait until you start using them in conversation...it's something of a social handicap after a while :)

4:39 am

Miyavi_fan

Hey, Amandacath! A bit obscure today...what else is new?

4:40 am

Farruska

ok, stuck on li4,4 ; i have one already but can't see the other. any clue?

4:41 am

Farruska

LOL nevermind. i have the 3 :D forgot to check the box :D

4:42 am

amandacath

I want Foreign Babble for this one - I'm finding more German words than English ones!

4:43 am

Farruska

amandacath i thought the same :D good thing to know german LOL

4:44 am

Miyavi_fan

hehehe...I'm not even finding German, I seem to be finding words I've made up myself.

4:45 am

Farruska

Miyavi_fan one could say that's preety much German :D damn language :)

4:45 am

MarqueeMarc

hey why isn't duralite a word!?

4:46 am

KevinE

Well, y'all know English is based on German--right???

4:47 am

Farruska

KevinE unfortunatelly ;)

4:47 am

Miyavi_fan

lol! true, Farruska...when it comes to German, you just couldn't make it up. Lederhosen...goosegog...sheiss haus...
Gott segnen die Deutschen!

4:47 am

amandacath

It (German I mean) has it's good points and bad points. Not so many obscure words, for one thing, since it tends to germanify everything into ridiculously long, consonant-ridden compounds rather than just using the simple foreign word.

4:47 am

KevinE

With healthy helpings of Latin on top...

4:48 am

amandacath

...and French, and just about every language on the face of the earth

4:48 am

Miyavi_fan

KevinE, Latin is anything but healthy :/

4:48 am

Miyavi_fan

the best thing for me is the word Radiergummi. you just couldn't make it up, could you?

4:49 am

Farruska

amandacath i'm living in Germany :D it's really baaaaddd to have to know those really long words and long words connected aand specific verbs for an action and or depending if applied to person, animal or inanimated object

4:50 am

Farruska

Miyavi_fan Radiergummi it's wonderful LOL but speaking it's easier to say just gummi :D

4:50 am

KevinE

Miyav, what's your beef with Latin? It's pretty specific...

4:51 am

amandacath

Oh, don't get me started... my nightmare is genders. Where are you, Farruska? I'm in Hamburg.

4:52 am

Farruska

amanda in Düsseldorf

4:52 am

KevinE

Gotcha. Well, night, all. To be continued in the morn...

4:52 am

lshult

stuck on ne6/21?

4:52 am

Farruska

bye KevinE

4:52 am

amandacath

But careful with that Gummi, gals. In the wrong context you'd be talking about condoms...

4:52 am

Miyavi_fan

Kevin, just some bad experiences :)

Farruska, I'd agree with that...the worst thing about foreign languages are long words! senkyuuhyakuhachijuusannen is the longest foreign word I know...and I wish I didn't :/

4:53 am

Farruska

otorrinolaringologista :D

4:53 am

Miyavi_fan

Amanda, maybe we are *evil grin*

4:53 am

KevinE

sounds like a number in Japanese...

4:54 am

Farruska

amanda yup but i rarely use it on a sentence :D what about pouf LOOOOLLL ya know like those giant beanny bags to sit on :D one of the guys went to ikea here and told the lady he wanted a pouff :D

4:54 am

Miyavi_fan

yup! it's a date :) I like Japanese...there's a lot less gender and tenses involved :)

4:55 am

amandacath

Ishult - ne has to do with the nervous system

4:56 am

lshult

4:57 am

Uludaas

Atalante

5:27 am

Farruska

amanda: re +

5:28 am

msabatier

FraztheMonkey

5:32 am

FraztheMonkey

Stil can;t see Fe5/18, though :\

5:32 am

mrpresident

anyone who hasn't got stats for this puzzle... go to bab anon and check the stats (on the right hand side of this page) ... you can get the stats from there
OR
(take out the spaces in the address bar or it won't work) http://www.writely.com/View.as px?docid=bccpk6gfhxhw4

5:32 am

Farruska

have no idea

5:34 am

amandacath

there are two of them, Farruska. One is what Old Macdonald had, the other is same with a different ending (it means paint used on the face, but it's obsolete)

5:34 am

Cathy

fe 5/18 -- think of term for wild stray cats

5:34 am

Holliezontal

hi im back

5:35 am

FraztheMonkey

Isn;t that only 16?

5:35 am

Cathy

oops, sorry -- that's the fe 5/16

5:35 am

Farruska

amanda, stupid moi :) thank you. got it; now struggling with fe5,18

5:36 am

Eva

Good morning everyone. This one is an annoying little bugger isn't it?! Welcome back Miyavi!

5:36 am

Holliezontal

its fe5/16

5:37 am

amandacath

Take the "wild cats" one and change the middle letter to a vowel - it's a scottish word, so unless one is fluent in Scot (Scots? Scottish? Scots-Gaelic? Don't know the correct word for the language) you probably won't know it.

5:39 am

FraztheMonkey

Nope, still don't get it.

5:40 am

amandacath

keep trying, you'll figure it out

5:40 am

FraztheMonkey

I only see one possible vowel to change for the middle letter, but that isn;t accepted...

5:41 am

Farruska

fr5,18 ? (tighting the knots here)

5:43 am

Farruska

anyone on fr5,18 clue bitte?

5:43 am

amandacath

Sorry - my bad. The last letter is different as well. Ummm, let's see. Name of the second month and take out several consonants?

5:44 am

Holliezontal

type in FRAUD

5:44 am

mrpresident

take the second fe4/7 and stick a 'u' in the middle

5:44 am

Angelsong

morning, all. I'm feeling sickish today. Ate something that disagreed with me last night. I have no takers yet formy FAQ thread on BA; did all the new players get the information they need?

5:44 am

amandacath

Sounds like "not as many"?

5:44 am

FraztheMonkey

Ahh...got it now. Thanks.
It's Scots, by the way, but only for the modern dialect of English. Gaelic is the ancient Celtic language.

5:45 am

mrpresident

Please do not type words from the grid in the log, thank you!

5:45 am

amandacath

Thanks Fraz - now I know.

5:45 am

5:47 am

Holliezontal

mrpresident

On points for example "da" 4/5 means the word starts with "da" have 4 letters and is worth 5pts. We do not use the words in the puzzle in our chat unless its by accident of course those things do happen. But giving clues is great fun. Everyone enjoy and lets. Play.

ROFL Faerie,

6:09 am

amandacath

Hollie - you have to find the word before you can give a clue. OR you've read the log and someone has said "there's a cl6/21", for example. OR you've looked at one of the lists that other Babblers are kind enough to put together for the rest of us.

6:09 am

Farruska

AHHHHHH FMitch and Amanda got it :D

amanda can ypu believe i was thinking in Praxis ? DUH!

7:39 am

Farruska

no fireworks for me :(

7:40 am

FMitch

editer, it is trickier today, sometimes less words to find means more headaches. The op is also true when you have a grid of 300+ you end up going word blind.

7:41 am

FMitch

Farr have you finished? Congrats and well done, we don't always do fireworks, it's nothing personal.

7:42 am

Shatterproof

how do you know how many possible words there are?
And, please forgive a first time babbler, what is all this "5/12", "fa4/7" business?

8:04 am

Jacula

Shatterproof - 'fa' means the word begins with those two letter, '4' is the number of letters in the word an '6' is the points for the word.

8:04 am

Angelsong

shatterproof, you will find the answers to those questions on Angelsong's Babble Page; link is to the right under the Friends of Babble, second link from the bottom

Hello, Faerie.

8:13 am

faeriekae

Jacs - I don't like ironing..I've a bunch to get done in my laundry room right now. Why did you remind me?

8:14 am

saffire

aaah i get it now!!! finally got the gist of the clues!! and they help a lot!

8:15 am

Jacula

Faerie - I, too, hate ironing and also have a massive pile to do.:-(

8:16 am

bunnyvicious

Good morning, I've been MIA for awhile, whole family got a stomach bug over the weekend, yuuuuuck!

8:17 am

Jacula

Hi, Bunny.

8:17 am

faeriekae

Jacs LOL- I iron all my blouses, skirts, jeans and such but I sure as heck do not iron sheets and pillow cases. I heard someone just the other day say they were going to iron sheets.....NOT ME..

8:17 am

TheDonster

8:17 am

faeriekae

(((Bunny))) awwwwww hoping your feeling better Hon.

8:20 am

bunnyvicious

It is going around bad here, they actually shut the restaraunt I worked at down because there was no one to work!

8:20 am

Jacula

Faerie - I don't iron sheets.

8:20 am

faeriekae

Bunny-4lbs ? Are you kidding? Lady you were sick. I'm glad your feeling somewhat better. My shoulder is doing great. I'm just doing physical therapy twice a week now.

8:21 am

Angelsong

Jacs, if you toss your things that need ironing into the dryer with a wet towel and run it until the towel is dry, you may have a lot less ironing to do.

8:21 am

faeriekae

Angel - No, no you too. I'm staying away from you gals. Shorty and I got sick one night not long ago but it was just a 24 hr. thing.

8:21 am

EBTG

Hello :) err... any clue for the 7-letter word..?

8:22 am

bunnyvicious

That's what I do, hang em up damp. Don't think I've ironed but once in two years!

8:22 am

Angelsong

We had chicken for dinner last night (take out). that's what did it.

8:23 am

Jacula

Angel - The electricity bills are high enough without using a tumble dryer for everything. Stuff dries on the radiators at this time of year and outside on the line in the warmer weather.

8:23 am

shorty

8:52 am

Yup, I OWN him! ...and I love him too.

9:39 am

Toes - go call Capone again.

9:39 am

bunnyvicious

Yeah!!

9:39 am

bunnyvicious

I'm guilty of arguing with the doctors alot...

9:40 am

faeriekae

Bunny - No, not you.

9:40 am

bunnyvicious

When my husband got hospitalized, we saw on call doctors and each of them had something different to say per shift, it got very frustrating.

9:41 am

faeriekae

That is enough to make you go off then. I would do the same.

9:42 am

bunnyvicious

I want my daughter tonsils and adnoids removed, but they want to put her allergy medication. Poor girl is always sick and has zilch for air flow in her nose. So, on with the arguing...
I kinda feel bad for my doctor when I was prenant with the twins!

9:42 am

Ok calling him now :)

11:21 am

capone

I've got a candle,
And I've got a spoon

With no doors and no rooms
Under the window sill
They all were found
A touch of concrete within a doorway
Without a sound

11:21 am

72 Temple Owl

i've just been catching up for the last hour's drama

11:21 am

Jen

Okay, I am so confused! :( Was is for real? Was it a joke? What was the answer? And I thought TSM was married already.... oooooh my head hurts!

11:22 am

caitlyn

11:22 am

faeriekae

11:22 am

Lupe613

Jen - read back on today's episode of "As the Babble Day Turns"

11:23 am

FMitch

nothing caitlyn just a bit bit of internet hype/make believe

11:23 am

capone

Not a joke.

But also not the right time or place.

11:23 am

Jen

I tried to get thru as much of it as I can, but I'm still confused (even more so than with our "other" drama a few weeks ago). Cap, was it for real?

11:24 am

capone

No yesterday I was just trying to see if she was lurking.

Today I'm just being an ass

11:24 am

Lupe613

Why do I feel like a ping pong ball right now?

11:24 am

faeriekae

ohhh Capone - your not so bad after all. But it is the right place....*tee hee* ......just ask and get it over with you know you want to marry her.

11:24 am

Lupe613

At least you admit that you are one Capone.

11:25 am

Jen

Lupe, you are not alone!

11:25 am

capone

nah, shes not my type and i'm def not hers.

11:25 am

faeriekae

Ok Ass - ask her...either in here or out there but ask..She loves you so much...

11:25 am

Lupe613

1,000,050 lashes and counting.....

11:26 am

faeriekae

Lupe - crack that whip.

11:26 am

capone

She loves the name, not the man that its attached to.

11:26 am

Lupe613

LOL

11:27 am

faeriekae

nan-she loves ya...

11:27 am

DBoutsik

forgive me, but could we stick to babble and not blather?

11:27 am

Atalante

there's a reason this is called the *chat* log ;)

11:27 am

Lupe613

Dbout - you must be new, or in desperate need of clues.

11:28 am

smithchick

We rather like our blather on here. You can hide the chat log if it bothers you.

11:28 am

faeriekae

DBoutsik-sorry we are bothering you. Hide the chat log.

11:28 am

Jen

Sorry DB, I think that the "blather" is part of the fun for a lot of us.

11:28 am

Angela

yikes! I knew dbout would get slammed...

11:28 am

caitlyn

Anyone need a drink??

11:29 am

brownorama

I mean, how often does one get to see a marriage proposal? Next to a word game, no less!

11:29 am

FMitch

We babble and balther and it just happens that no one is asking for clues right not but take the time to go through the log and you will see that quite often there are only clues going given ro asked for!

11:29 am

banton

What madness is this? Socializing, in a chat? Who would've thought.. O tempora, o mores.

11:29 am

dann

caitlyn: clue or offer?

11:29 am

Angela

12:20 pm

GreyWoulf

I always hate it when an X or Q goes wasted. So I guess my day is good now :)

12:24 pm

GreyWoulf

((*Jera*)) -- you are not the first to say that about me :D

12:24 pm

hurshy

12:25 pm

hurshy

i don't find mine lovely - it's only a 4

12:25 pm

mab

No, I'm outbrained here, definately. (great clues to come, yay)

Welcome back Bugzy.

If anyone would like to propose to me, just go right ahead. Don't be shy. Of course there seem to be no men here at the moment. Consider it a blanket statement, valid indefinately.

12:25 pm

sprite

I agree, Atalante, a beautiful one :)

12:25 pm

jmds

I've got a 4 letter word ending in x if that helps...

Aww, that is sweet, Jera.

12:40 pm

jmds

Well, got 59 so far. Seems like I'm miles away from finishing!

12:40 pm

Bugzy

Gotta love that Jera - more time to Babble!

12:41 pm

Jera

That's over half... very good for a newbie!!

12:41 pm

Jen

I'm just trying to kick this thing in the ass hard before his interview/test. Gives me more time to chat on Babble too! :)

12:41 pm

smithchick

My kiddies are home for spring break. I wish they'd fall asleep because then they wouldn't be bickering or messing up my clean house! Daddy is coming home today after two and a half weeks.

12:42 pm

mab

jmds, you can find lists of the first two letters of every word at Babblers Anon, or Angelsongs page. Just click on links at the right.

12:42 pm

Jera

Our Spring Break isn't for a couple more weeks... the week before Easter, including the weekends... 10 days total. We'll be having a Girl Scout day camp to celebrate!

12:43 pm

sprite

3 more F-words? You must be kidding.

12:43 pm

Jera

*thinking of the F-words Babble makes her say sometimes*

12:44 pm

jmds

Ah! Thanks guys. That's a great help!

12:44 pm

cybernan

I've been playing this game too long --- starting to get some of those strange words on the first guess!

12:44 pm

Bugzy

LOL Jera

12:44 pm

Lupe613

belated congrats on finishing smith - I left to heat up my lunch and missed the subtle announcement you made!

12:44 pm

sprite

Jera... and those aren't in here! Those I would have known! I need one more... can't be for real.

12:45 pm

smithchick

TY, Lupe...I'm known for my subtlety:)

12:45 pm

caitlyn

I had better go now supper to cook!! Happy babbling all catch you tomorrow lol bye

12:45 pm

Haz1558

Sprite, there is a REALLY strange f word.

12:45 pm

Jera

Some of the F-words today are totally bizarre...

12:45 pm

Atalante

11 words to find, and they don't exist

12:45 pm

hurshy

i need 7 more F's, lol

12:45 pm

Bugzy

Bye Caitlyn :)

12:45 pm

Lupe613

12:45 pm

*scrolling down the log and finding clues*

12:45 pm

Baafour

Hi,
Would someone please tell me how many words are in this puzzle? Thanks.

12:46 pm

Atalante

but I do have all the Fs, so I promise they exist!

12:46 pm

Haz1558

They exist, Atalante, they exist. How's the dog by the way?

12:46 pm

sprite

Oh. Ok. Scots law word. Figures.

12:46 pm

smithchick

Bye, caitlyn!

12:47 pm

Atalante

she hasn't forgiven me yet for the stabby injection yesterday! she's spent the whole day lurking downstairs under husband's desk *sigh*

12:47 pm

Lupe613

smith - how are things going in school for the kids?

12:48 pm

ca$hmyre

i have 62 words. i swear there aren't anymore!

12:48 pm

Haz1558

She'll come round eventually...

12:48 pm

Angela

Bye Cailtyn!

12:48 pm

Atalante

she will - when she's hungry :P

12:49 pm

sprite

Keep faith, ca$hmyre. There are 98 words that are there. Only 8 that aren't.

12:49 pm

Baafour

I was wondering... I have only 30 & that's a stretch...

12:49 pm

smithchick

It's going better for my son and a little worse for my daughter. She's 11. Suddenly she has decided that homework is overrated. She will probably drop a few a's to b's. The little one (8) is a model student. Her teacher loves her. My son is actually not making any d's or f's this semester!!! I'm so excited. He's making b's and c's for a change. Still not the a's that he's capable of, but we're happy anyway. How's your son? Is he over being sick?

12:49 pm

KevinE

Cash, I have 60. Basically just woke up, continuing the saga...

12:49 pm

smithchick

Sorry, bafour...there are 106

12:50 pm

Jen

I used to be a middle school teacher and sometimes I thought homework was overrated!!!

12:50 pm

btwrt

my first time, i've got 36. but my brain hurts already ...

12:50 pm

Baafour

ouch; will persevere...

12:50 pm

smithchick

Hi ca$h and kevin and bafour and anyone else I missed!

12:50 pm

Haz1558

Don't be too disheartened if you don't finish the grid straightaway. Like anything else, you get better the more you practise.

12:50 pm

Lupe613

kept him home yesterday due to nasty cough - back in school today. His math grade is suffering....

12:50 pm

sprite

Sorry baafour, missed your question.

12:51 pm

btwrt

yo :)

12:51 pm

Jen

welcome btwrt, to the madness! It's very addictive, so consider yourself warned! Pretty soon, you'll be saying, "just one more word, I swear!"

12:51 pm

smithchick

btwrt! HI...

12:51 pm

KevinE

I'm home babysitting while my wife works. Seems like everytime I stay home, at least 1 of the 3 aspiring teen musicians is magically home sick--2 today! Just got back from bribing them with a bootleg copy of "Saw..."

12:52 pm

sprite

Lol Jen! So very very true :)
Welcome, all newcomers, to the word hunting madness.

12:52 pm

KevinE

Top o' the morning to ya, Smith!

12:52 pm

Bugzy

This puzzle does have some really tricky words in it - so all newbies, don't get discouraged!!
Use the help pages at Babbler's Anon and Angelsong's page, links to the right --->

12:52 pm

smithchick

You must be a pushover Kevin!

12:52 pm

hurshy

could make feminist complaint, but won't

12:52 pm

Haz1558

I take it these teen musicans aren't into string quartets and Mozart?

12:52 pm

Jen

yikes kevin! I guess the whole Triaminic or Benadryll thing doesn't work on teens, huh. lol

12:52 pm

cybernan

fe 5/18?

12:53 pm

smithchick

I'll be back in a minute.I've got to fold a load of laundry...

12:53 pm

Jen

nan, fa5... yella yella, kiss your fe...

12:53 pm

Haz1558

fe 5/18 put the last vowel into the middle of what makes you scared

12:54 pm

sprite

That's the scots law word. Don't ask.

12:54 pm

KevinE

No, they think all medicine is highly-overrated. The strings come out only at night, when the parents are home. I'm wrangling with my 16-month-old right now. Man, she is STRONG!

12:55 pm

Jera

That fe5/18 borders on dirty pool... but it goes with the fe6/33, kinda sorta... someone else will have to be clever as I'm getting numb again...

Later, all!

12:55 pm

cybernan

ty Haz

12:55 pm

Jen

oops! my bad, I gave a clue for the 5/16, not 5/18... sorry nan!

12:56 pm

Jera

*before she goes, is impressed with smithchick's ability to fold a load of laundry in a minute*

*poof*

12:56 pm

Haz1558

Or fe 5/18 - french for fire, followed by part of you form of 'to be'

12:56 pm

KevinE

ok--I'm going to my dictionary for the first time...stuck at 60.

12:57 pm

hurshy

why not german, too? frau?

12:57 pm

Bugzy

Ok - must get back to work. Sigh...
BBL :)

12:57 pm

Haz1558

What do you mean, hurshy?

12:58 pm

hurshy

i mean we have lots of spanish, scottish, etc words all the time, why can't we have frau today?

12:58 pm

Jen

kevin... try www.a2zwordfinder.com also when you get stuck... you can type in the 1st 2 letters of a word and it'll give you all the "legal" words from 3 letters on up.

1:00 pm

Atalante

7 to go ... this is getting painful!

1:01 pm

KevinE

Thanks, Jen. Beats dog-earing books...I guess, or at least looking for the New York Times Dictionary of Misspelled and Mispronounced Words (awesome book!)

1:01 pm

Vicuna

They count "senora" so it's especially biased to omit "frau".

1:02 pm

hurshy

but please tell me you've scoured the log for clues, which i haven't

1:02 pm

smithchick

Well, it was a little longer than a minute. So sue me...

Jen

1:02 pm

KevinE

how do you say "fire" in French? Firenze in Italian, right? Fiero, I think, in Spanish...

1:02 pm

Atalante

no scouring, no list, and I'm pointing towards a double consonant pair for nan

1:04 pm

1:06 pm

Lupe613

Congrats TSM!

1:06 pm

Jen

Hey again TSM!

1:06 pm

Douglas

It would seem that the P in the lower right corner is there for the sole purpose of annoying me...

1:06 pm

hurshy

atalante - i am feeling so inferior today!

1:06 pm

Lupe613

Yes douglas - just for you....

1:07 pm

Vicuna

1:07 pm

Lupe613

LOL Vicuna!!

1:07 pm

1:10 pm

Atalante

1:11 pm

Atalante

no. though after I finished it, he walked over and said "well, I could have helped you, you know" *facepalm*

1:11 pm

Jen

I think I'll go enlighten my brain some more with catching up on the news (no sudoku for me.... NUMBERS are EVIL!!! LOL)... take care all and have a great rest of the day! :)

1:11 pm

hurshy

that's where sudoku differs from babble - it's really always the same, so once you can do it, you can do it. with babble, it's always a different challenge.

1:12 pm

Douglas

Dalit should be a word, it is a member of the untouchable caste in India

1:12 pm

hurshy

ata, i don't quite get what you mean when you do *facepalm*

1:12 pm
