12:06 am

How are we going to get 133 words out of this one? and no 'e's
12:07 am

ok, so this women came into the bar I work at and said "do you guys have f-in vodka" I thought she was using the f word without saying it, but there is a vodak called effin
12:08 am
hootowl
pinecone I bleed with you! I thought I had finished one and found out the next day it decided a word it had accepted wasn't acceptable. Pain in the a**! Now I check after I've finished. - OFTEN!
12:08 am

This is going to be interesting with no e!
12:08 am
Panhandle
how about that! The Babble dictionary includes urban slang! (ph 4/6)
12:09 am
hootowl
to me, 133 means a lot of weird words and atoz to find them!
12:10 am

Panhandle - you will find the Babble dictionary changes from day-to-day and whatever whim hits it!
12:10 am

12:13 am

Being a beginner....I would like to ask why a word I "know" is a word isn't accepted. Punched in 3 times...can I go ahead and type it out on this chat page? I know we shouldn't give away words.
12:13 am
NatLT
if it isn't accepted you can type it
12:14 am
NatLT
never heard that word, is it a proper noun?
12:14 am
chic
Stoner, it is the program based on another dictionary because I have words in a dictionary I use that are accepted all the time...Oh Well....
12:15 am
Panhandle
chic: are you asking for hints for B7/40 and B 8/50?
12:16 am
Stoner
like the old song " putting on my tophat.... putting on my white gloves"...I think....
12:16 am
chic
No Panhandle, the 'game' at the flip is to find the longest words; it's too early for clues....
12:17 am
Panhandle
perhaps tophat is, more correctly, actually "top hat" or "top-hat"?
12:18 am
chic
As I a 'Pro' I can flip to the stats on left and see the word sizes....
12:18 am
Panhandle
ah - thanks chic. I thought it might be something like that but wasn't sure.
What is the longest word? (I dont have the stats)

bluesmoke, you have to type them in the little box underneath, not click them.

re soba: only as an acronym though. doesn't have soba as in buckwheat noodles.

On further review, the b 4/6 might be a prefix of the b8, but it's not a prefix of the b7
12:42 am

not the first bo 4 but the second bo4 is part of the 7 and 8, angelsong

3:59 am
Atalante
I'm an almost artist lol - my main gallery there is http://elegaer.deviantart.com/ but ... my cat now has her "own" gallery there too! http://silver-claws.deviantart .com/ if you like kittens!
3:59 am

4:03 am
sprite
Atalante, how am I ever gonna finish this grid now that I am browsing your site?
That lure of the dark side... sigh... Nice cats too... God I love fantasy art. You are a great artist.
4:04 am
Atalante
sorry! ok - I don't have a gallery there at all :) better??
4:04 am
sprite
Oc7/32 think 8 and navigation, pl. :)
4:05 am
sprite
Nope, will not work, Atalante, now that I've had a taste :)
4:05 am
sprite
Oh, and let's not forget the Pt word.
4:07 am
sprite
Couldn't see the Op7/44 for my Op7/44, I guess. Beautiful words again today :D
4:07 am
mab
Atalante, I like how that tree looks very rooted in place, while also looking like it could walk away with Odin. Gorgeous, delicious photo. love the curves and textures and so many aspects.
4:08 am
Atalante
ooooh I'm glad people like that tree pic. I get far too excited about new discoveries and want everyone else to love them too!
4:09 am
sprite
I do!
Also found another 7, Ob7/44. When a pinetree drops its fruits upside down.
4:10 am
sandyloo
ive got that one sprite hmmm clue....
op + small word then add c4/7
4:12 am
sprite
For the Ob add C5/14
4:13 am
mab
I love that site, Atlalante - continue sharing please.
4:13 am
sandyloo
atlan did you create that"dark side"piece yourself
its very good
4:15 am
sandyloo
i LOVE the site too at my daughter is a bit of an artist she will adore it
4:15 am
Atalante
yup! I was having one of my many drooling-over-Anakin moments and felt the need to draw him :)
4:15 am
sprite
I want that dark side piece. It talks to me.
A little checklist:
7s:
At, Bo x 2, Co, Ob, Oc, Op, To
4:16 am
Atalante
deviantArt is a wonderful wonderful terrible site. You can get caught up in stuff there all day - which is wonderfull good and wonderfull bad!
4:16 am
sandyloo
wow atlan it is fantastic you are soooo talented
do you sell original pieces over the net?
4:17 am
chopped
get a room... oh look, letters!
4:17 am
sandyloo
my son is cooking something i better go and see what
it sure smells good!!
4:18 am
sprite
That sounds great, a son doing the cooking :)
Atalante, I wondered the same thing: do you sell your work?
4:19 am
Atalante
do you? hmmm maybe I should do a decent scan of it and make it into a print. Then I could send you one and you can stare away :) and sandy, some of the pics in that gallery are available as prints - every time I have a day spare I try and make some more available - and I have been known to do a few pictures that people have begged me to do for them!
4:19 am
banton
afternoon all, how many words today?
4:20 am
sandyloo
banton 133
atlant im in awe you are fantastic
bb later
4:20 am
Atalante
I'm starting to sell more and more stuff, I'm hoping by next year (ish) to be at least making a half decent amount of money from it. At least enough for pencils, papers and books - and pet food. The essntials of life!
4:20 am
banton
thanks, Sandy
4:21 am
sprite
Atalante: I'd love a print of that. Please email me on the details, both financial and practical :)
bin _ there @ planet . nl
(no spaces ofcourse)
4:22 am
mab
It is a drawing? And yours? Atalante you are a versatile artist and the few pieces I've seen are not just finely rendered, but have great depth as well. Sorry, don't mean to be a flatterer, but it's true to me and I'm sure to anyone else who can look and feel. Ok. Done gushing for now.
4:24 am
Atalante
*blush* thank you mab. I'm just glad people seem to like them as much as I enjoy making them! I could live without most things, but not my sketchbook and pencil! And Sprite, I've written that down :) I was actually thinking about making some prints at the weekend - my husband's going away so I'll get peace and quiet to concentrate for a few days!
4:24 am
kartra
hey all! does todays babble have a theme?
4:26 am
mab
Atalante, please to put me on your mailig list too? tikvaeve@msn.com.
4:27 am
Atalante
good question, kartra! I've been happily monopolising the chat with art talk ...
4:27 am
Shatterproof
Is there are "something-opath" word?
4:27 am
mab
I don't know what it is kartra.
4:27 am
sprite
We should have an Atalante Art theme one day :)
Thanks Atalante, I'll be looking forward to your mail whenever you find the time n peace n quiet :)
4:28 am
sprite
Done!
Shatterproof: no, there isn't, alas. Would have been very nice indeed :)
4:29 am
Atalante
lol! only on a day I'm not here please!!!! I'm only just getting used to the idea of shoving my gallery in people's faces and making them pay for things!!
4:30 am
mab
Oh pish Ata.
Well done our Sprite!
4:33 am
Atalante
done? DONE? I think I've only glanced at the grid for about 2 minutes in the last hour LOL ooops
4:33 am
sprite
I am sure it would be a bit embarrassing, but what a great way to get used to the attention you so truly deserve :)
There is a subtlety (sp.??) in your work that just draws me in and in and in...
4:36 am
Atalante
I think its called growing old. My mother always told me she hoped I'd get more subtle (and tactful!) when I grew up :P
4:37 am
sprite
Oh, I also love that deco art moonlit cat!
4:38 am
chopped
stuck @ 35 :// hint me folks :)
4:39 am

She must be very happy when she looks at your art then :)
4:39 am
sprite
chopped: lots of hints and clues in the log, just scroll down!
4:39 am
mrpresident
chopped... you need the stats page!!
4:39 am
Atalante
she keeps bringing pieces of "art" I made in infants school out and waving them around in front of all my relatives LOL
4:46 am
amandacath
all right, guess I'll have to ask. Got all the 7's but one bo - I have the plant one (and an 8 from it as well), is the other one also planty, or does it have to do with a sailing vessel, or none of the above (probably)?
4:46 am
sprite
amandacath, it is a fish plural. Black grouper is another name for them.
4:47 am
amandacath
fish, huh? Well, let's see what my brain can dig up
4:50 am
mab
Wouldn't it be fascinating to see the juvenalia of, say, Rahphael or Picasso, or all artists.
4:51 am
Atalante
one I know, cos I'm reading a huge biography about him, Dante Gabriel Rossetti was disgustingly talented at about 10. its totally sickening!
4:52 am
amandacath
Got it! had to google black grouper, but now I know!
4:53 am
mab
Pre-Raphaelite juvenalia -- I must look that up.
4:53 am
amandacath
I've hit the halfway mark - hurrah! How many 8's - or bigger *cringe*?
4:53 am
Atalante
I'd love to see what Leonardo da Vinci could do if he was alive today. He was such a revolutionary thinker and designer, I just have this feeling we'd be up in space or something if he was around now
4:53 am
sprite
amandacath, that's how it works! Next time you will know the crazy word and put it in right away :)
4:54 am
sprite
1x8, 8x7
I agree, Atalante, there were just no limits for his thinking n intuiting.
4:54 am
sprite
I am off, thanks for the great company again and happy hunting to all of you. :)
4:55 am
amandacath
Oh hurrah! That means I've got all the big ones - or not hurrah, that means alot of yucky little ones...hmmm
4:56 am
Atalante
a few years ago I worked in Milan for a few months, and between there and Lake Como, there is a river which can be crossedby ferry. The ferry they use is the exact same design that Leonardo created when he was asked to design that ferry when he was alive. They actually used *his* ferry - the actual one - until a few years when it started to fall apart a bit
4:57 am
mab
It's always a pleasure to be on with you Sprite. Have a great day.
4:58 am
mrpresident
Finished!
4:59 am
Eva
Good morning all! mrp, before you disappear, could you nudge me in the right direction for the oc7? I've been working with the 8 + navigation clue for ages and can't see it.
Atalante-how do I get to your site?
4:59 am
mab
yay mrpresident!!!
5:01 am
Atalante
hi eva! my site is at http://elegaer.deviantart.com/ and here's another wonderful thing - just so cute and dragony and catty - http://www.deviantart.com/view /29385228/
5:01 am
amandacath
Hi Eva, I'm still here and will be for a while, it looks like. That one drove me crazy too. Think of an apparatus used to navigate and instead of a 6 at the beginning...
5:01 am
mrpresident
Eva -= if you have the 'one eighth' word, just plural it for the 7
5:02 am
Eva
mrp you always come through for me!! Thanks!
5:02 am
mrpresident
eva - 6 is sextant =therefore 8 is oc**** then plural
5:03 am
Eva
thanks to you too amanda! I was looking in all the wrong places as they say...
5:04 am
Shatterproof
Got half the big words. Go me.
5:05 am
amandacath
YW! I know what it's like
5:06 am
amandacath
Does the V or the G get used at all?
5:06 am
mrpresident
I haven't put the ab4 in my stats list this time around... sorry !!!
5:06 am
Atalante
the G starts 1 word
5:07 am
Shatterproof
...and its a plural
5:07 am
Eva
atalante-I went to the site but am confused. Is all the work there, the posters, etc yours?
5:08 am
Atalante
I wish :) no - I tend to write big long articles on there about different things and gather some interesting pics together for people to look at. actually, this link is better: http://elegaer.deviantart.com/ gallery/ - that's all mine!
5:09 am
amandacath
oh - of course. Thx, shatter
5:09 am
Atalante
it is a bit of a confusing site unless you're used to it!
5:09 am

Morning everyone
5:12 am
Atalante
hi jmds!
5:13 am
jmds
Back for another day of Babbling...
5:18 am
Eva
atalante-WOW! I can't believe the range and depth of your work! So many questions: Why "deviant"? So many of your pictures look like illustrations. Are they? Do you also write the stories? Who do you do your work for?
5:19 am
Eva
nite mrp. Sleep well.
5:21 am
Atalante
why deviant - no idea. its the most STUPID site name ever, I think! but its one of the biggest art sites on the net, so everyone puts up with it! A lot of the pictures are illustrations for Tolkien's books, especially the older ones, a good number of the newer ones are illustrations for a role play I run with 2 friends. Well, its slightly more than just a role play now, its a story we've been writing together for about 2 years now. And the rest? Just stuff that's come into my head, or from books I read, or from Star Wars - mainly!
5:23 am
Ricey
another small one methinks??
How many words today?
5:23 am
Eva
Amazing. Is this your livelihood, i.e. how you support yourself? I hope so.
5:24 am
Atalante
It's not at the moment. Hopefully it will be over the next few years :)

having the apex downwards like a pine cone that drops
5:33 am
sandyloo
it may be interesting to know what u all pay in petrol
its about 1.29 per litre here
5:33 am
amandacath
Boys, that's a strange one - like an upside-down ice-cream holder
5:34 am
El Payo
I walk everywhere. I only need a fill-up 1 a month, sometimes 1 time every 2 months.
5:35 am
david.m1fcf
UK Prices are between 0.89GBP and 0.95GBP.
Costs me ÂŁ80 every ten days to fill my gas guzzler 4x4 up with diesel
5:35 am
Boysaway
Thanks Amanda and Sandy
5:35 am
Rlee
is that for a litre ?
5:36 am
sandyloo
how many litres to a gallon?
5:36 am
amandacath
ElPayo - wow! an American who walks! Thought they were a dying breed. Been thinking about moving back to the States, but one of the things that prevents me is having to get a car. Where do you live that it's possible to get around without one?
5:37 am
sandyloo
i think petrol is really cheap in america compared to australia
5:37 am
Rlee
is funny on the way home from work this afternoon, shell was 1.29 and across the road quix was 1.14
5:37 am
david.m1fcf
Yes that is the per litre price. 1.55 USD per litre and 2.17 AUD for the lower price!!!
5:37 am
sandyloo
where r u rlee
5:38 am
El Payo
in San Francisco, it's $USD 2.50
5:38 am
david.m1fcf
1 litre = 0.264172051 US gallon
5:38 am
sandyloo
david dont americans pay by the gallon?
5:39 am
david.m1fcf
think so - so that makes it dirt cheap in the states, compared to UK prices. Was in Iceland in 2000, and the fuel there cost 0.35GBP/litre, but a loaf of bread was 3GBP!!
5:39 am
El Payo
Us Blue Staters/West Coast Liberal Elites have to subsidize the cheap gas in the Red States. It's the 'Bush Tax' for not voting Republican.
5:40 am
sundae1888
It's around CAD$1/L here
5:41 am
sandyloo
what is a blue state and a red state?
5:41 am
guigrrl
Its more than 2.50 a gallon here in NC (Red State)
5:42 am
El Payo
"blue state" = inclined to vote for the democratic party
"red state" = Inclined to vote for the republican party
it's based on the election maps the tv stations use to show 'who won' which state... even if it's a 49/51 split
5:42 am
sundae1888
I wonder why Ford/GM/Chrysler are busily advertising pickup trucks and monster SUVs...
</conspiracy theory>
5:44 am
sandyloo
at 1.29 australian i think it works out to about 3.80 a gallon us so you can all feel sorry for us here down under
5:44 am
El Payo
Because they're so slow to react to rising energy costs- they found a cash cow in SUVs in the 90s and had no 'Smart Car' for the current situation. They have to sell what they build.
5:45 am
guigrrl
I'd ride public transport to live in AUS
5:45 am
sandyloo
thanks for that info payo its interesting
5:45 am
sandyloo
have to admit its pretty fabulous living here
(im in perth but its fablulous everywhere in aus!!
5:46 am
sandyloo
we are lucky rlee
5:47 am
El Payo
just my take on things. Interesting to hear NC is higher than we are... I wonder if Katrina is a factor there more than here?
5:47 am
jo_jo
can anyone find a word with more then six letters? if so can u give me a hint plz x
5:49 am
david.m1fcf
two x 7 letters - both starting with 'o' - one is an inverse cone and the other is a 45degree arc
5:49 am
amandacath
Jojo - there are 7 7-letter words and 1 8-letter
5:49 am
sandyloo
at 7/32 the plural of something that makes you feel better
5:50 am
sundae1888
Despite all the North Americans' complaints, we do generally have the lowest gas prices comparing to most parts of the world. (Maybe it's lower in Middle East?)
5:51 am
sandyloo
your linen and bedsheets ect is cheaper than ours too
5:52 am
sandyloo
my favourite thing about the States was looking through the catalogues
5:52 am
jo_jo
wow, i must b stupid today. most i have been able to find so far is 6 letter words. :(
5:52 am
sundae1888
Nah, textile is dirt cheap in Asia. :P
5:53 am

jo jo i cant find the 4 letter words especially the last to 4/4!! lol
5:54 am
jo_jo
im doing fine on the short ones, ive got 26 4's so far
5:54 am
sandyloo
believe me sundae your sheets are cheaper that ours
keeping the quality in mind
5:55 am
amandacath
Sandy - you're sure it's the last to4 you're looking for? That one's "little kids"
5:55 am
sandyloo
ok i guess i shouldnt complain ive got 47
5:55 am
jmds
Up to 55 and am stuck... Might have to start using the word list...
5:56 am

'manda you are the best!!!!
couldnt see it for looking and ive been looking and looking
thanks
5:56 am
sundae1888
By Asia, I was thinking China. :)
I can totally understand why manufactured goods are more expensive in Australia though. Shipping is too costly.
5:56 am
sandyloo
hang on!!! i have got that its the second last one
LOL
5:57 am
amandacath
yw, sandy. I know how it is - forest & trees kind of thing
5:58 am
sandyloo
i dont know what makes things more expensive but generally your products are cheaper when i was in the states i bought stuff out of the catalogues and had them sent home and that was great!!
5:59 am
jo_jo
just out of interest is there a wor which uses the v?
5:59 am
El Payo
No 'v' words
6:01 am
guigrrl
yeah, Sandy -- when I was there I spent lavishly because our dollar was stronger.
6:01 am
amandacath
Sandy, thought that might be the case - the one you're looking for might be an old way of saying a to**** salad
6:04 am
sandyloo
amanda i have it at last thanks
6:04 am

Or maybe: "Thou villain! Thou hast to** me out on my buttocks!
6:05 am

Hi all, has anyone found the ab4? if so please can I have a clue.
6:06 am
blueeagle44
can anyone say the first letter of the 8 letter word lol???
6:07 am
amandacath
Hi Mitch! The dic says the ab is a disparaging term for the people who lived in Australia before the Europeans got there
6:07 am
sandyloo
8 letter word is bo 8/50
6:07 am
jo_jo
mitch - abo(plural) i think
6:08 am
amandacath
Blue Eagle - it's a bo8/50, and there's a 7/40 that goes along with it
6:08 am
FMitch
Thanks amanda, no wonder I coudn't see it or find it on a2z.
6:08 am

7:06 am
musicmom
(((Faerie))))) Just wanted to pop in and tell you to have a good time in case you left before I get back to play. Have to go to the bank, the postoffice and run a GS errand before I can do any serious babbling. We got our first significant snow fall yesterday so I have to go clean off the van.
7:06 am
faeriekae
(((Angel))) glad your feeling better Hon.
7:06 am

7:08 am
faeriekae
(((MusicMom)))-Goodmorning - enjoy the snow lol. and be careful you know how people drive....

7:09 am
musicmom
Yes I will be careful. The roads don't look too bad. I just didn't go anywhere yesterday so the van is buried. Okay. I'm putting on my coat and going. See you all in a few hours.
7:09 am

Too bad Capone she is high in the sky on her way to see Jen.

7:11 am
El Payo
Got it down to 34 left. Time to sleep.
7:12 am
Jen
Bye El PAyo!
I don't live in FL... I'm actually up in DC. (but I grew up there... in northern FL)
7:12 am
Angelsong
faerie, what it proves is just how severe the addiction is. I dream about Babble grids. woke myself up the other night muttering: "I need a BA5/12."
7:12 am
faeriekae
Jen - OMG - your just the Seminoles fan - sorry - forgot your in Virginia - North Virginia?
7:13 am
faeriekae
Angel - ROFL - thats a nightmare....
7:13 am
faeriekae
El Payo - Later - Good Going.
7:13 am
Jen
S'okay faerie! I went to FSU for bachelors and Masters and my Dad teaches there, I grew up there, etc. ANd seeing as how I'm so rabid about the NOles it's understandable.
7:14 am
capone
me too jen, i grew up in Jville
7:14 am
Angelsong
between the grids and my page, it's inevitable. By the way, I added a link to the Links section yesterday for Google image search, for icon finding.
7:15 am
Atalante
angelsong - could your page have a links section for babblers home pages? if enough people have them??
7:15 am
faeriekae
I lived in Orlando for just over 3 yrs. Does that count for anything? *teehee* Wasn't real crazy about Florida but it wasn't bad. I just didn't like the great big bugs and the love bugs.....twice a year....love bugs yuck.
7:16 am
faeriekae
Thanks Angel - I'll check it out.
7:16 am
faeriekae
Capone - Jacksonville is a nice area - Nice boardwalk there.
7:17 am
KatieMcG

Another name for the black grouper - I had to google it from an earlier clue.
7:17 am
Jen
Growing up, I couldn't wait to leave! I love going back to visit, but we really feel like VA is our home now.
(and central/south FL is veeeery different from north FL)
7:17 am
Angelsong
what do you mean, atalante, by Babble home pages? it's certainly no problem to add a section to the page...as long as I understand what it is I'm linking to.
7:18 am
capone
Jacksonville Sucks!
AC boardwalk is better!
7:18 am
EvaNadine
mornin babblers!!
anyone up for some shrimp cocktail?
;)
7:18 am
Atalante
I just thought when Capone put his pic up - some babblers must have their own web sites? I would have thought? Maybe? I'm just nosey LOL
7:19 am
movieman
Hiya, evan......
A shrimp cocktail would be absolutely great right about now.....
7:20 am
faeriekae
Jen - Va is one of the most beautiful states I've been in. Just passed through and visited friends but it is really awesome. Do you know where Boone County is?
And have you ever heard of the Dancin' Outlaw?
7:20 am
Angelsong
atalante, of course I could do that, if Babblers want it..
7:20 am
faeriekae
(((Movieman))) good morning don't think I spoke to you yet. Sorry!
7:21 am
Atalante
yeah .. I just wondered - I'm not sure how many people would have their own sites etc
7:21 am
Jen
I'm afraid no on both, faerie. My knowledge of VA is pretty much limited to NoVA and the VA Beach area... and seeing as how I no longer teach, I don't have to learn it. :)
7:21 am
movieman
Hiya, faerie......
How seems the world to you today.....?
7:21 am
FMitch
Atalante - you could have a link to your wonderful artwork perhaps :)
7:22 am
EvaNadine
i have a few online journals and a myspace.
:)
7:22 am
FMitch
apologies, Hi Everyone.
7:23 am
faeriekae
I can't believe you've never heard of the Dancin' Outlaw. I have one of his Videos. He is a mountain dancer/tap dancer. It is truly about his life Jessico White/aka/Elvis/aka/Jessie talk about inbreding....
7:23 am
Atalante
and there's a few other arty people, aren't there? Vicuna I think? And - um - someone else (I should remember but I don't)
7:23 am
movieman
Greetings, FMitch.....
7:24 am
faeriekae
Hi FMitch. good morning Hon.
7:24 am
Angelsong
ok, my suggestion is this: if you have a homepage you want me to link to on the resource page, can we make a list on BA or something, so I don't get swamped with e mails? I can pick the links up from there and add them to the resource page. Now I think of it, it's a terrific idea....
7:24 am
sandyloo
atlan i think that is a great idea or alternatively what about a babblers picture gallery we have one at tangleword and everyone emails their photos and the person (like angel) puts the photos up
7:24 am
faeriekae
and Evan - goodmorning.
7:25 am
EvaNadine

Applebees makes the best Ive ever tasted
9:21 am
Angelsong
if the instructions are not clear, please let me know, MM.
It's one of those things where it's easy if you know how to do it, but it can be confusing if you don't know how. I tried to pretend I didn't have a clue when I wrote the instructions.
9:21 am
musicmom
UGH My deepest apologies - I used a word a few posts ago. I'm very sorry:-((
9:21 am

9:54 am
godthaab
Why doesn't the Latin plural work for bo7/40? it is a word!
9:56 am
gramma
Okay fellow babblers, Help please. It's my last word. It's not a biggie. It's "Ab" blank! I just keep staring at the grid and it's not coming to me. :{
9:56 am
Haz1558
Which latin plural are you trying to use?
9:56 am
andy12489
try a*** where *** is s supervisor without the last word
9:56 am
musicmom
gramma I don't know.
9:57 am
grigs
Gramma- think slang for Aussie native people
9:57 am
Karys
gramma ....ab + forth vowel and plural
9:57 am
Haz1558
Hi, musicmom - the latin plural for nouns ending in a is ae.
9:58 am
turbodog
Ph4/6 can be found in the "American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, Fourth Edition"
Surprising, eh?
9:58 am
Angelsong
gramma...add a round vowel and curvy consonant to your errant AB
9:58 am
Bubbles

10:07 am
blueeagle44
im just choosing anything random lol not the popular ones, n thats cool lol, and wheres' here in your case
10:07 am
musicmom
The music store is in Athens Ohio
10:08 am
TP17
Athens.... home of the U of O?
10:08 am
Angela
Blue - that's called "monkey typing" here if you ever see that term. You're not the only one who does it, for sure!
10:08 am
blueeagle44
cool cool, i just made it up lol it just sounded good, and i use it for random things, i wouldn't know it anyway, me in UK :D
10:08 am
Angelsong
so, tomorrow, Karys, just refer to the resource page again. Pretty soon, changing your icon will be no big deal. I even put a link to Google Image search in the links section to make searches easier.
10:08 am
musicmom
YES! Are you familiar with Ohio University?
10:09 am
Karys
that was how I found this one Angel
10:09 am
TP17
visited there once. Pretty crazy place. Had a "Black Widow" at one of the bars, and partied at, I think it was called the CI?
10:09 am
spellacked
Why isn't obonics a word? n - the language of people trying to speak through a woodwind reed. ;)
10:10 am
kissmyglass04
lol obonics.. like ebonics for music nerds
10:10 am
musicmom
AHHHHHH yes it is the CI. Haven't been there in years but played lots of pool there in my undergrad years. Haven't heard of a Black Widow in years either.
10:10 am
Angelsong
:) that little page is sure a gem. People seem to like it. I orignally put it on the internet so Babblers could check it out to see if they wanted one of their own. Now, it's a fixture.
10:11 am
musicmom
You probably had a Black Widow at the Cat's Eye or the Nickolodeon.
10:11 am
TP17
Yep, visited a friend there 2 years or so ago.... great place. Reminds me of a small Penn State.
10:11 am
Karys
Angel....what would I have on one opf my own ?
10:12 am
musicmom
We love it here. I did my degree from 1987- 1991. My husband did his bachelors and masters. Now he works for the U and I teach Kindermusik classes here. Our kids will probably go to OU.
10:13 am
Angelsong
Karys, your own page would have most of the same content as the online one.
10:13 am

10:13 am

musicmom
hahhahaa sandyloo. Just who would you be talking about. I can quit any time - really I can.
10:16 am
turbodog
Its addicting nature could see it renamed "Babblesmack"
10:16 am
Angelsong
Karys, if I make a Babble resource page for you, it will be stored in a folder on your own hard drive. not online. But the links would still work. You would just open page in your browser.
10:16 am

Luke with lots of help !!!
10:19 am
musicmom
LukeM - I think we all have our own methods. i go through and find as many words as I can. Then I go back through the log looking for clues, then I ask for help. I also work on it in small bits on and off through the day.
10:19 am
Angelsong
Karys, Yes, of course! send me your e mail address and what color you'd like, and also tell me which browser you use. my e mail address is in my profile and it's also on the resource page under Contact me.

10:20 am
Haz1558
Luke - my method is to go through the grid, finding as many words as I can myself. I also keep an eye out for clues on the chat log. Then I get the second letter list, go through that to see if I can find any more on my own. After that, I use morewords.com to fill out the blanks.

The pesky bo4/6 is an anagram of the first one.
10:21 am

and then you get stubborn people who find as many words as possible then swear and kick at the grid until it releases the rest of the words for them

Thanks, Angelsong. I'm gonna wait a week to see if I'm still playing before registering.
I suspect I will be, though. Your page helps makes the wait not so painful.

Lupe, please look at the Resource page. see if you think Jera will be pleased.
11:07 am

yes! i agree with pwinn! thank you angelsong!!!
pwinn, i did the wait thing too! I hope you stay. It's quite addictive!
11:08 am
Angelsong
pwinn, that's why I put the page together. I'm a fairly new Babbler myself, and it helps to have everything collected for easy access. I went Pro in just ten minutes when I played the game for the first time.

12:26 pm
Lupe613
the only one I have is row, row, row your bo4/6.
12:26 pm
cybernan
The older you get, the later in life the term "old" applies. Right now old, for me, is 80.
12:26 pm
turbodog
I've found that if you define OLD as ----
OLD = (Current year - Year of birth) + 2
You will never get old!!!
12:26 pm
Farruska
habe that one already james :9 and the other that means two things ;)
12:26 pm
hurshy
switch last 2 letters on the bo
12:27 pm

LOL
12:28 pm

I'm a little more middle aged, hurshy. Before ph4 became a pretty hot and tasty word, I thought it meant pleomorphic hyalinizing angiectic tumor -- I'm such a dolt.
12:32 pm
jasonplancaster
huh. that's a shame
12:32 pm
Lupe613
hey jmds - hows the baby..
12:32 pm

12:36 pm
hurshy

12:37 pm
Farruska
hurshy it has accepted. but.... how do you build it on the grid ? :/ it's not according to the rules or is it ?
12:38 pm
justafreep
the upper T, farr.
12:38 pm
Atalante

Hi Atalante...
12:38 pm
Vicuna
(Sorry, Jarruska. Children were implored not to mess with the toilet that's plugged. Children messed with the toilet that's plugged. Ugh.)
there's a bo4/4 that means the parasitic larvae of a kind of fly, but sounds like it's short for electronic metal people (think of "femmebo---" in Austin Powers?)
12:39 pm
jasonplancaster
hmm. i still don't get that nervous clue...
12:39 pm
hurshy

12:40 pm
Farruska
justafreep i'm missing something on the rules then .... don't get it how the plural of bo** is accepted. has a letter on the grid in between the upper t
12:40 pm
cybernan
5 words left -- all oc's and an on -- totally stymied!
12:40 pm
Vicuna
There's an s directly above the upper t.
12:40 pm
Atalante
15 to go Hurshy - and just about to get the list I think
12:42 pm
Farruska
vicuna maybe i'm not explaining. so you have BO than you have the upper T, but i though one could only use direct horizontal and vertical and diagonal, not skipping letters. now i'm really confused
12:43 pm
caitlyn
jason have you got the clue now?
12:43 pm
Lupe613
as long as you don't skip over a letter you are ok...in this case, all the letters are concurrent as you go around the other letter to get to the last two letters in the word - like boggle.
12:43 pm
mab
oh hurshy i was just joking - i looked that up.
12:43 pm
dl88
cybernan - all the oc work off the same next 3 letters, think about the popular st. paddy's dring, black & ***
than use differnt endings & plurals
12:43 pm
Vicuna
There's an o to the NE of the b...
12:43 pm
hurshy
farruska - you have the rules right - just go UP UP UP
12:43 pm
Atalante
Farruska - you have the BO then the upper T then the S immeditaely above the upper T
12:43 pm
jmds
The oc 5/12 is the first three letter of the prefix that denotes eight followed by the first half of Hathaway's first name. The 6/21 is a plural of that.

Thank you, jms

Atalante i got that, but what about the C in the middle? how does it not go againts the rule?
12:45 pm

Hurshy -- degree of transparency
12:47 pm
mab
You're very warm, hurshy!
12:47 pm
Atalante
the C really has nothing to do with it. you have a make a "snake" as it were, so you can go diagonally to the right then back diagonally to the left without a problem
12:47 pm

1:20 pm
Karys
there are 133 words to find ylleria
1:21 pm

Find out how many words there are for the day - either by asking or by going to the Babblers anonymous link to the right - and when you have found that number of words... voila! you're done!

Hi smiley :)
1:27 pm
ylleria
Yes, I saw vicuna's post, thanks for that.
My username doesn't really mean anything, it was just made up for a role-playing game. It's really useful online as it's never already taken.
1:28 pm
Haz1558
bo7/40 - relating to plants, some cities have these type of gardens.
1:28 pm
Karys
Atalante...21 here....not giving in yet !!!
1:29 pm
Dachef
can't believe "catonit" isnt a word. I use it all the time - "Why cant I sit on the sofa?" "Because theres a ......"
;)
Even' all!
1:29 pm
Angela
The only time I had heard anything like it was on the TV show Angel - Illeria was a character. I'm sure it's not ever taken!
1:29 pm
Smiley23_47393
i must not be very smart b/c I don't see 133 words in this this is my first day at it maybe I will figure it out:)
1:29 pm
agatehawk
ha! great clue, Haz
I love the b7/40 gardens in San Diego, actually
1:29 pm
Atalante
I wouldnt either, Karys, but I've got to go in a few minutes, so I'm rushing through the last few!
1:29 pm
Karys
LOL...LOL...Dachef !!!!.....hello bytheway :)
1:30 pm
ylleria
Oh yeah - I'd forgotten about Illeria on Angel, I was quite surprised when it first got mentioned!
1:30 pm
Haz1558
Glad you got it agate.
1:30 pm
Karys
thats it Atalante...time !!!
1:30 pm
Vicuna
Dachef, usually I can't get up from the sofa because of a catonme!
1:30 pm
Atalante
LOL Dachef - there should be dogonit too!
1:30 pm
Angela
Been too chatty - 50 to go...
HA Dachef! I suffer from that as well!
1:31 pm
Karys
going to make a big effort now with the 'c's
1:31 pm
Vicuna
Atalante, "dogonit" is useful even when you don't have a hound. "Dogonit, kids, I told you not to sit on the cat!"
1:31 pm
Angela
So you know the show ylleria? that's great. Usually a Buffy or Angel reference gets me laughed out of the room! LOL
1:32 pm
Atalante
here its "dogonit dog, I told you not to sit on the cat"
1:35 pm
Dachef
actually, because I am a bachelor (and typical slobby male), its usually more along the lines of: "Why cant I sit on the sofa?" "Because its got the rancid remains of last nights take away on it."
1:35 pm
ylleria
I watched all of Buffy and Angel. And Firefly. In fact, I was at the second ever showing of the firefly film :)
1:36 pm
Vicuna
As long as you can still tell that apart from the cat, you're doing fine.
1:37 pm
Angela
Good to know I'm not alone then...my husband gets a good chuckle that I own the entire DVD collections. hehe
1:37 pm
Dachef
congrats Atalante! Got a clue for the bo6/27?
1:38 pm
Angela
Atalante - now that you're done - who is your icon?
1:38 pm
Angela
OOOO!! And congrats!!!
1:38 pm

dachef - its a black grouper. you know, one of those words you use 10 times a day ... right ...
1:38 pm

1:41 pm
Haz1558
That's good.
1:41 pm
Dachef
got it! Its actually Catalonian for "good-to-yes".
1:48 pm
Atalante
*interested* how do you know catalonian, dachef?
1:49 pm
Dachef
I dont really. My girlfriend is from Girona nr Barcelona. I only speak a few words. And those badly.
1:52 pm
Atalante
its a weird coincidence - I don't think I've ever known anyone who speaks catalonian before 2 weeks ago - and now I've met 2 people who speak it straight after each other
1:52 pm
Dachef
I really hate 7 letter words, my mind is just not that good! Anyone got the co7/32?
1:54 pm
Karys
Chef...a dish co/7..of so many ingredients
1:55 pm
Dachef
and I realy hate it when the word turns out to be a word in common usage like that instead of a medical term or something else obscure! Cheers Karys!!!
1:56 pm
Dachef
Atalante - who else do you know speaks Catalonian?
1:56 pm
Karys
yw chef....know exactly what you mean...I couldn't see the 's'. washing thing earlier !!
1:58 pm

2:16 pm
snowyowl

The number of words people get varies from day to day, since the number of words total varies for each puzzle. There are 133 today...
2:25 pm
boreetos
hi sherb.
2:25 pm
Schroeder
Hi Sherb!!!!
2:25 pm
Dachef
advant - depends on how many bottles of wine you've had. In my experience, the more wine you drink, the more words you find. After a coupla bottles, you dont really care. (hic).
2:25 pm

2:27 pm

Many people find all the words every day, using the tools on Babblers Anonymous or Angelsong's Page (links to the right under Friends of Babble)
2:27 pm
jeffer
the wac follow the thread for adavant who just asked a similar question to yours
2:27 pm

Schroeder
Hi FMitch, Congrats!!!!!
2:31 pm
Bugzy
To get a flag and a picture and a handbag, you need to buy a Pro subscription. $10 for a lifetime of fun and addiction!!
You also get a nifty little grid that shows you the # of words beginning with each tile...
2:31 pm

Hi Fmitch!

2:34 pm

2:34 pm
Vicuna
Boreetos, that little light-skinned bloke in the blue shirt next to your flag, that's meant to be a handbag!
2:34 pm
adavant
stubie..it hardly makes much sense does it?..I mean..why not just get my mother to play for me ..
2:34 pm
stubie
What's the biggest word anyone's got?
2:35 pm
Bugzy
People use different help tools as they wish. Some use no tools at all. It's personal preference, and not really a competition for many of us...
2:35 pm
stubie
Err, I want a clue, not the word.
2:35 pm
Karys
oh dear boreetos....never mind...just shows you're one of us !!!
2:35 pm
boreetos
hey stubie, wouldn't telling you be the same as looking it up?
2:35 pm
adavant
i have a snobtap fro 7 letters..
2:36 pm
Dachef
I still say the "handbags" are more like coins going into slots. Although that could just be a macho thing cos I dont want to be associated with owning a handbag.
2:36 pm
peester
Hi all. cocktail hour already? I was here earlier and no one was drinking. This must be the fun group.
2:36 pm
stubie
Clue, dude, not word.
2:36 pm
adavant
stubie didnt ask for the word, just how many letters
2:37 pm
boreetos
i look until I get really stuck, then I look at the second letter list, ask for hints as needed as pretty much proceed like that until I run out of time for the day. But there is the rare exception when I've got just a small handful of words left and really want to finish the grid, a task that happens quite infrequently, and so I resort to the wordfinders.
2:37 pm
gwenski
The largest word in this puzzle is 8 letters.
2:37 pm
Bugzy
There's one 8-letter word today, that's the longest one...
2:37 pm
buttmunch
bo 8/50
2:37 pm
Vicuna
Stubie, no one ever gives out the words. (At least, not on purpose.) The lists people are talking about give the first letter or two, and number of letters or points, so that you can figure out which words you already have and where you should try looking for more.
2:37 pm
stubie
Oh, drat. If there's only one, I already have it. It's a 50 pointer.
2:38 pm
FMitch
bo8/50 someone who works with plants
2:38 pm
Dachef
And done. All hail the little grey boxes.
Anyone stuck?
2:38 pm
buttmunch
too much help
2:38 pm
sherb
stubie/adavant - lists give you a CLUE if you're stuck, and they only show the first two letters... :D
2:38 pm

Hi peester. It's always cocktail hour somewhere on Babble :)

I'm not trying to insult anyone. As was pointed out, there are people who use tools (including a dictionary) and those who don't. I have no problem with those people at all.

Just 3 words and I'll be done. Any clues for the last three ca's? They may be obvious words, but I'm oblivious!
2:47 pm
TheFiz
2 of the three ca's are small chickens...
2:47 pm
adavant
exwren..I have no problem with the chatting aspect of the game.. I think its good.. its the clue stuff I dont get
2:47 pm
Lupe613
Hope so -- you never know with Chicago weather - there could be 2 feet of snow by the time I leave work in an hour. I'd never know since I am enclosed in my little box here.... rumor is we'll be getting colder weather....
2:47 pm
Bugzy
pt6/24 - add the o4/5 that has to do with ears
2:47 pm
sherb
The FIz - try a2zwordfinder.com or morewords.com... :D
2:48 pm
Vicuna
but the third from the end is the chicken with its tail cut off!
2:48 pm
Haz1558
gwen - ca4 - a hat plus a vowel (guitarists use this)
ca5 - instruction to child to don a hat ( or type of chicken)
ca 6- plural
2:48 pm

There were wet flurries flying around at lunch... Not supposed to get above 45 here for the next week or so... This is spring???
2:49 pm
TheFiz
thanks bugzy - anyone know what that means? been following the clue discussion and i personally like to learn new words.
2:49 pm
gwenski
Thanks all!
2:49 pm
Lupe613
It is in our parts Bugzy.....
2:50 pm
peester
adavant, the kind of clues you see depends upon who's here at the time. Some give definition clues, some give "sounds like", others hint at letters (hoop = o, 2nd vowel = e). It just depends - there's mystery! there's humor! there's helpfulness! even, dare I say, sarcasm?
2:50 pm
snowyowl
The Fizz clicking on the ? next to the word should give you the definition
2:50 pm
Bugzy
Fiz - it's the adjective form of "Abnormal lowering or drooping of an organ or a part, especially a drooping of the upper eyelid caused by muscle weakness or paralysis." If you click on the ? by the word, it pulls up the definition. :)
2:50 pm
Schroeder
I agree Bugzy, hard to get excited about spring when I have 4 ft of snow on the ground and more still coming....
2:51 pm
Bugzy
I hear you Lupe & Schro ...
Oops, BRB ...
2:51 pm
Vicuna
Well, it usually gives a definition, but for some reason the question marks use a different dictionary from the game and sometimes the question marks don't know what the game is talking about.
2:51 pm
TheEngine
Man, the bo 6 and 7 are giving me fits
2:52 pm
Haz1558
bo6/27 - first three letters of 007's name, followed by first letters of opposite of alkaline

2:53 pm
btwrt
how many words today?
2:53 pm

Every February I get the urge to run away to Australia... then Spring comes & I'm okay with Virginia once again
3:17 pm
Vicuna
okay, mo, start with a camp bed or bed in an infirmary, then add first two letters of the name of Shakespeare's wife. Does that work?
3:17 pm
Lupe613
LOL snowy.. the only downside is that we have to travel for about 5 hours to get to the "sleepy fishing town" we'll be staying at....all this to stay away from spring breakers!
3:18 pm
Lupe613
Ooh Jera - I'd love to visit Australia in Jan/Feb...too soon after x-mas cash flow usually low then.

Hi chic & MM
MM it's so good to multi task! LOL
I saw the Steph Plum conversation yesterday & still can't think who I'd like for either. Johnny Depp is very good to look at but is he too slight to play Ranger?
3:39 pm
Lupe613
mo - it ends and begins with the same letter - the middle three letters are used in many company names?
3:39 pm

Oooo chic I agree. UM scept I don't get HBO we're on satellite.

Hi Sherb and Snowy, 'nut did pick Sandra Bullock too. I think we need to search for hot Italian and Cuban unknown actors!
