1:37 am

Womprat

ha 4/5 - head ornament

1:38 am

hurshy

i know i can get the list, trying not to, that's all

1:38 am

Douglas

We seem to have a few subatomic particles visiting today...

1:38 am

Ornith

heh, even with the list, I generally have to give up 1/3-1/2 the words missing

1:39 am

Douglas

It doesn't come in pints, but it should...

1:39 am

sprite

Tried that too :)

1:39 am

hurshy

what doesn't come in pints, douglas? my missing P?

1:40 am

Ornith

I don't think anybody's "p" should come in pints

1:40 am

Douglas

I just wanted pints to be a word, and I recalled LOTR

1:41 am

Douglas

pi 4/5 is A semistable meson produced either in a neutral form with a mass 264 times that of an electron and a mean lifetime of 8.4 × 10-17 seconds or in a positively or negatively charged form with a mass 273 times that of an electron and a mean lifetime of 2.6 × 10-8 seconds. Boy, does my Babble etiquette stink for giving that one away!

1:43 am

Douglas

be a word, cohesion, be a word!

1:44 am

Ornith

there's an MH?!?! woah.

1:44 am

sprite

Ornith, remember that one, it will be back :)

1:44 am

Douglas

I'm gettin' a hosin, from wanting chosen to be a word

1:44 am

Ornith

I have no idea what it is - that's not even phonetically legal in English

1:45 am

hurshy

clue, ornith, clue!!

1:45 am

Douglas

Well, it looks like we'll learn something...

1:45 am

sprite

unit of electrical conductance in the International System, equal to one ampere per volt

1:46 am

Rlee

good afternoon all

1:46 am

Douglas

Haven't they heard of the posix operating system?

1:46 am

Ornith

hmm. guessed it, but I've never heard of that one before.

1:48 am

sprite

I like Sh4/6 (Yidd.) A stupid or obnoxious person :)
I must remember that one, next time I want to call someone names. In about 5 minutes, I think.

1:50 am

Douglas

That mh thingy is the opposite of ohms, and they had to think of something to call it...

1:50 am

hurshy

sprite - ??? i have some sh 4/6's but they are basic words, and shom didn't work, what on earth is left

1:50 am

sprite

Switch last two.

1:50 am

Ornith

most people usually spell that yiddish sh 4 with an e on the end

1:50 am

hurshy

right, right thought of it just as you posted

1:51 am

Ornith

I still like "schmuck" better :P

1:51 am

Douglas

Mary Chapin Carpenter used that sh 4/6 in her song "In My Heaven"

1:51 am

MarqueeMarc

MH 4/6? What?

1:51 am

Ornith

scroll down Marc, I just had the same question

1:52 am

hurshy

eh - 19 to go... do i want to get the list, or wait and finish tomorrow, or what?

1:52 am

sprite

Me too! Sounds better :)
Hurshy: yes, it's a regular one, comes by ever so often. Which doesn't mean we can't have a blind spot for it ;)

1:53 am

Douglas

1:54 am

Douglas

1:54 am

1:55 am

Douglas

Hosea isn't a word, but it's in there...

1:55 am

Ornith

Thanks Womprat, I was missing that one

1:55 am

Douglas

I want someone who op 5/12s to be a word too, but it isn't

1:56 am

sprite

That's me done. Any clues needed before I split?

1:57 am

Ornith

grats sprite! (what don't I need clues on? lol)

1:58 am

Douglas

Here's hopin' that hopin' is a word...nope...

1:58 am

Womprat

he5/12 - a robbery

1:58 am

sprite

That's because there's no tile with ' on it, Douglas :)

1:59 am

Douglas

Oh, well, that would explain, wouldn't it? : )

1:59 am

sprite

Okay, I am off for now. See you guys tomorrow ;)

2:00 am

Douglas

se 5/10 is a fishing net found in crosswords from time to time...

2:00 am

sprite

And it takes both a person using it and a past tense :)

2:00 am

MarqueeMarc

sorry i still don't have mh! help!

2:01 am

Douglas

One would think I would be noticing that, but noooo...

2:01 am

Ornith

Marc: some really lazy scientists needed a word for something related to ohms.

2:02 am

sprite

You do now, Douglas :)
Mark: some topsyturvy scientist even.

2:02 am

MarqueeMarc

I got it! No way!

2:02 am

Douglas

You won't find either dinner or sinner

Douglas

2:08 am

Douglas

So, the F in the top row is just there to annoy me, yes?

2:09 am

Douglas

Does it say how many words begin with the n in the top row?

2:09 am

Ornith

oh man, only 67 words even with the list and some clues being given out, and I'm stuck. I'm really not good at this.

2:09 am

Douglas

I only have 48...

2:10 am

Womprat

2:10 am

Ornith

2:14 am

Womprat

close ornith

2:14 am

Douglas

Hmph! In my day, we didn't have to know subatomic physics to do word puzzles

2:14 am

Ornith

I'd have sworn I tried typing that in before. guess not.

2:16 am

Douglas

How many words are there starting with d?

I didn't even know there was a word starting with eo...I learned something

2:18 am

Womprat

I have it now

2:18 am

Ornith

2:18 am

hurshy

clue then please?

2:18 am

hurshy

Douglas

How could I possibly be so de 5/12?

Womprat

A red crystalline powder, C20H8O5Br4, used in textile dyeing and ink manufacturing and in coloring gasoline.

eo + someone breaks a commandment ;-)

2:23 am

Douglas

And no, it isn't dentist...

2:23 am

Ornith

2:24 am

Douglas

Douglas

2:30 am

lshult

I have the eo4/4, what's the other eo?

2:31 am

Douglas

I have an eo 5/10 and an eo 6/18. There are three eo's ?!?

2:33 am

lshult

thanks Doug

2:33 am

Douglas

Yes, there are three eo's. Anybody got a problem wi' dat?

2:34 am

Womprat

I'm not seeing an eo4/4

2:34 am

Douglas

It may take you a very, very long time...

2:35 am

lshult

eo4/4 could take ages

2:35 am

Womprat

Good call...got it (looking the wrong eo before :-)
Thanks.

2:36 am

Douglas

eine is not a word, but it's in there...

2:37 am

Douglas

I want noetic to be a word, but it isn't

2:38 am

glitch_tybalt

I must say, I'm completely confused as to how all this works. Just stumbled across it a minute ago. how does it work exactly?

2:39 am

Douglas

Hello! You find words made from adjacent letters, diagonal included

2:40 am

Douglas

And then you get horribly frustrated when you discover that there are way more words in the puzzle than you were able to see...

2:40 am

phess

and then you come back 3 hours later and find a few more

2:40 am

glitch_tybalt

*laughs* I see. this could become _very_ addictive.

2:41 am

mab

welcome glitch. Angelsong's Babble Page link at the right will explain all.

2:41 am

glitch_tybalt

yes, just found it. I must be blind...

2:43 am

Douglas

I have 3 eo's and 1 er 4/4. What other e words are there?

2:43 am

phess

Douglas

2:45 am

mab

2:47 am

Douglas

Someone who believes in the God of Creation, but not the God of the Exodus

2:49 am

glitch_tybalt

oh, good hint!

2:50 am

snowyowl

Hi all - verdict on the grid today please as I HAVE to have the meeting I cancelled yesterday, today!

2:50 am

Douglas

Is it time to quit when the letters start swimming around and smashing into each other?

2:50 am

glitch_tybalt

you mean that they don't normally?

2:50 am

Womprat

That sounds like babbleroids!

2:51 am

snowyowl

LOL Douglas probably but you won't!

2:51 am

Douglas

I'm trying to find the 3 e-words that I don't have, and I'm not doing very well...

2:51 am

Womprat

How many e words are there?

2:52 am

Douglas

2:52 am

mab

2:52 am

phess

2:52 am

KevinE

de 5/12 stuck up, in a broad philosophical sense

2:52 am

Douglas

I have three eo's and 1 er 4/4

2:53 am

Womprat

Looks like you're missing the ex5/20. clue - "To have actual being"

2:54 am

Douglas

If I can get 4 more words, I would get to halfway, at which point I could declare victory

2:54 am

Douglas

thanks!

2:55 am

snowyowl

Good -I'm on a strict time budgetb as the meeting is at my home and I have to try to turn it into something that doesn't look like a babble addicts home & feed four children & run a Rainbow meeting before it!! LOL

2:55 am

Douglas

It's amazing how the path of a word can twist and turn like the flight of a gnat-hungry swallow...

2:56 am

Womprat

African or European? :-)

2:56 am

Douglas

I'm imagining a Babble puzzle in Welsh...ouch! Mental note...don't try that again...

2:58 am

snowyowl

LOL Douglas , not enough letters available! Besides which my Welsh vocab only runs into about 50 words!

2:58 am

phess

that's slightly more than mine. ;)

2:59 am

KevinE

I'm at 40...how many Total words are there?

3:00 am

phess

i hear there's 125 words, but i don't believe it. i bet there's only about 40ish ;)

3:00 am

Womprat

ha6/24 = ha4/5 with something stuck in it. ha7/36 plural

3:01 am

Douglas

I just found a po 4/5 to go with my two other po 4/5s

3:02 am

mab

Thank you Womprat.

3:02 am

Douglas

I usually think of that as two words...Maureen O'Hara used it quite effectively in the movie McClintock

3:02 am

snowyowl

NICE clue Womprat TY!
OK going to dedicate myself to clearing up what was my pristine home pre -babble, found a 1/5 so will be back when I get to the cleaning the bedrooms bit!
Happy Babbling

Womprat

3:03 am

mab

Later, snowy!

3:04 am

glitch_tybalt

3:04 am

phess

3:05 am

Douglas

Thanks Womprat! I'm declaring victory and going home. Cheers, and stop by Crossword Bebop sometime and say hello!

3:06 am

trishtrash

Hmm, back for my last 20 later... bye for now, folks.

3:55 am

mab

Thanks again, Womprat; not a familiar word to me.

3:59 am

Womprat

Womprat = little rodent creature from Star Wars.

4:01 am

amandacath

yrrgh. This one's no fun. ha6 & 7 please? Tried womprat's clue but couldn't get anything to work

4:01 am

mab

i meant the pi, but I am not familiar with the creature either.

4:03 am

Womprat

Do you have ha4/5, amandcath?

4:03 am

amandacath

the one you wear on your head?

4:04 am

Atalante

hi everyone :) done sudoku, over to babble!

4:05 am

Womprat

yes. That's it. Take the singular version of the word, add to it a word that's kind of like a needle to the end of it. It's two short words stuck together.

4:06 am

amandacath

duhh! I was trying to stick something in the middle of the word, not into the thing - thanks and pass the fish! (Haven't had enough coffee yet)

4:07 am

Rlee

evening all

4:09 am

amandacath

I've got an ha7 and an no7 - any other biggies?

4:10 am

kartra

todays theme is: cram the vowels! .. whats going on in the top right corner! :-)

4:10 am

FMitch

Hi, nothing bigger than a 7 today but there are 7 of them.

4:12 am

amandacath

oh *!%§(%)&§ - gonna have to put on another pot of coffee, looks like!

4:12 am

ExWren

Morning snowey, I thought I would have a quick read of the log, but there is so much chat this morning, it took ages.

4:17 am

amandacath

Is there one that has to do with nearsightedness? (Before I type my fingers bloody trying to get an ending that works)

4:17 am

FMitch

don't think so amanda, but I only have 2x7 at the mo.

4:18 am

Haz1558

Amandacath - the ending for the shortsighted one has a food connection

4:19 am

FMitch

Hi Haz, great clue!!

4:19 am

amandacath

Mitch - there is! Well, maybe - dic doesn't have a def for it. Sounds like what you might call a bunch of nearsighted children...?

4:21 am

Haz1558

Thanks FMitch! I'm afraid I'll have to leave, it's my morning for Riding for the Disabled. See you later!

4:21 am

amandacath

Hi Haz! Was typing my last entry as you posted.

4:21 am

FMitch

LOL can I have some of your coffee amanda?

4:21 am

amandacath

You bet - sending it right over!

4:22 am

david.m1fcf

4:31 am

amandacath

I don't even know what to ask for, Ishult. Yays to you for finishing

4:34 am

FMitch

the good news is that there are only 4 x re's today!

4:35 am

lshult

FMitch- and none of them refere to doing somethong again

4:35 am

FMitch

thank goodness for that LOL

4:36 am

epsurreal

4:37 am

El Payo

I'd tell you epsurreal, but i forgot.

4:37 am

david.m1fcf

4:37 am

lshult

4:37 am

epsurreal

4:39 am

epsurreal

I thought you said you were finished, Ishult?

4:40 am

amandacath

What would I do without you guys - I'm not seeing ANYTHING!

4:40 am

manju01

hi this is my first time here.. can anyone let me know how i can play this game?

4:40 am

El Payo

Well, first I'll have to have some international aid group free from this gulag.

4:40 am

lshult

that was a clue, not a plea!!

4:40 am

El Payo

*free me*

4:40 am

epsurreal

oh haha...ok Ishult :)

4:40 am

FMitch

Just found the 2nd a7 - am***** International

4:41 am

epsurreal

at least I had that second one before I asked for the first.

4:41 am

Atalante

talking of that 2nd am7 - 3 hostages have been freed in Iraq - 1 Brit and 2 Canadians. Big big happy news over here!

4:41 am

lshult

you go FM!!

4:41 am

El Payo

That is greatnews. Now if they'd release Jil Carroll...

4:42 am

david.m1fcf

manju01: find four or more letters to make a word, and type them in the word box - if it is there, then great, if it isn't then it will tell you - don;t post the words on the chat, but refer to them as first two letters, then word length, then score e.g. de5/12 for a particularly thick and solid substance

4:42 am

amandacath

manju - read the rules, then we'll be happy to explain anything you don't understand

4:42 am

Atalante

if only they'd release everyone and never take another hostage again - iraqi or foreigner! but I suppose we can just be thankful for small mercies that occur

4:43 am

manju01

hey thanks guys that made more sense- till then it sounded like you ppl were talking gibberish

4:43 am

Miyavi_fan

Manju, they probably were. this IS babble...

4:43 am

phess

i'm not even gonna comment on our involvement there in the first place...

4:43 am

lshult

manju01 - take time to learn the game. You won't be dissapointed.
Just addicted!!

4:44 am

El Payo

Clue me in on the at7?

4:44 am

manju01

im addicted already..
cant seem to work either..

4:44 am

Atalante

nor me phess - its just great to hear a piece of good news from there!

4:46 am

lshult

at7= at = round vowel + deserts with crusts

4:47 am

El Payo

Thanks. That's a new SAT word for me.

4:48 am

amandacath

ok, 1 seven to go. I've got:
3 x a, 1 x h, 1 x m, 1 x n ... ?

4:49 am

FMitch

4:51 am

lshult

2xm7
my & mo

FMitch

4:51 am

phess

glanced at the screen and saw the P as an A... and thought "tard". and then realized that's was i was for being up this late when i've got an interview in 5 hours...

4:53 am

El Payo

They should give bonus points for how many Star Wars planet names you can make up.

4:54 am

lshult

off to do some work
see you all tomorrow

4:55 am

Jaen

what does it mean if my word is listed but does not give a score and my total is NaN

4:55 am

phess

125 and i can only find 53. what a loser i am. oh well, g'night all.

4:55 am

Atalante

spoh'xn sounds like a good one

4:56 am

Nexum

NaN means not-a-number, it seems likely that something has going slightly wrong with the javascript, maybe try refreshing

4:57 am

El Payo

I liked 'Drenoisia'

5:00 am

Atalante

Mospine sounds like it should be somewhere on Tatooine

5:01 am

El Payo

"Denptah Six" is where they should have left Khan in Star Trek.

5:02 am

kartra

for some reason, when i stare long enough i see the word atmosphere!

5:03 am

amandacath

hexist - someone who discriminates against witches?

5:04 am

phess

don't be hayt'n

5:04 am

FMitch

LOL amanda - I see the caffine is kicking in!

5:05 am

El Payo

I'm looking for works in 'ernist' now. 40 left.

5:05 am

El Payo

Runnin' on enpty

5:05 am

amandacath

Well, sort of - I'm finding all kinds of letter combinations, but none that are either in the right order or acceptable words - you getting anywhere on that mo7?

5:06 am

El Payo

amandacath, think of the champion of the downer pageant

5:07 am

amandacath

Downer Pageant? Is that a piece of US pop-culture trivia I've missed since being away?

5:08 am

El Payo

the one who is the 'best' of anyone who is mo6/27

5:09 am

FMitch

found it, it's an ext of the mo6/24, root word means down, dejected.

5:09 am

amandacath

oh duh! I had the comparative already, wasn't seeing the superlative - another fish for me!

5:10 am

MarqueeMarc

Desperatley need help with ST 5/12! Anyone?

5:11 am

El Payo

If you are mo6/24 than anyone who is mo6/27 you are the mo7/36

5:15 am

MarqueeMarc

now I'm lost on MO 6/24! Ughh!

5:16 am

Douglas

MO 6/24 is a comparative

5:16 am

El Payo

Well, don't get all depressed about mo6/24.

5:17 am

amandacath

You're on a roll, ElPayo!

st5/12 - small opening: say with a southern-US accent "That thief st*** car!"

5:17 am

El Payo

mo6/24 is also an old name for an all-in-one printer/fax/copy machine/scanner

5:18 am

amandacath

actually more a hillbilly accent than a southern one ...

5:19 am

FMitch

there is a related mo6/27 that comes after the mo7

5:20 am

MarqueeMarc

Got ST! Yippee and thank you! Now MO 6/27 escapes me @ 3:20 a.m.!

5:22 am

FMitch

same 1st 3 letters + an ending that means sort of , kind of.

5:23 am

amandacath

oh yay - now that everyone's got the mo6/24 I can make another bad joke. Opier & opiest - more & most like little red-headed boys

5:24 am

MarqueeMarc

Wait I'm delirious: I've got MO 6/24 & MO 7/36. Ineed help with MO 6/27.

5:24 am

El Payo

and both would be opieish

5:26 am

FMitch

Marc, look at the last 3 letters in El Payo's 5.24 post.

5:26 am

epsurreal

I finished! This one went fast tonight...much shorter than most others.

5:27 am

epsurreal

anyone want any clues?

5:28 am

MarqueeMarc

ElPayo and FMitch thank you! I can't see straight I'm so tired but I can't stop! Help me! This is so addictive. It's like literary crack!

5:28 am

FMitch

Congrats epsureal

5:29 am

manju01

i still didnt get the at7
clues anyone?

5:31 am

amandacath

at 7 - If you visited Aunt Bea and Andy you'd also be "at*****" house

5:31 am

epsurreal

at7 is at+ ending from my7

5:32 am

El Payo

clue for my6/27... I have my7/44 and my5/18

5:33 am

MarqueeMarc

MY 6/27 ends like a asian food sauce...

5:33 am

amandacath

oh grrr - thought I'd done with the my's. Don't have it EP, but will now look

5:33 am

MarqueeMarc

I need SP 5/12!

5:34 am

MarqueeMarc

MY 6/27 sounds like it could kill you if you ingested it...

5:35 am

amandacath

I've got 2 sp5/12s - one is one who works for the CIA, one is the think in your back

5:36 am

MarqueeMarc

Smooches Amanda!

5:37 am

amandacath

Thx Marc - for the my6 AND the smooches!

5:38 am

casira

I feel like an idiot here, but the clues aren't doing much for me... any other hints on the my entries?

5:39 am

MarqueeMarc

MY ending sounds like cough syrup brand

5:40 am

amandacath

The my's (I have three) are all my + round vowel +:
mother
desserts
thing to be forgiven

5:42 am

Atalante

that my5 is the weirdest word

5:44 am

amandacath

Atalante - I wouldn't have known it either but we had it the other day and Sprite gave a great clue for it - one that actually stuck in my brain for a change

5:45 am

Atalante

I can never remember all the names of the hundreds of types of tumour - my theory is to stick the mother word on the end of any word ending in o and see what happens!

5:46 am

El Payo

OK, mh4 - that's just ridiculous. I'm monkey typing like mad

5:47 am

Atalante

its a unit of electrical something or other. think of a more common unit and type it backwards

5:47 am

david.m1fcf

Thanks Atalante. That last comment was like a smack round the head - I now have the small surgical opening st5/12

5:47 am

casira

at least when the word this thing wants doesn't even have a matching dictionary definition, I don't feel quite so much like it's my fault for not getting it... *facepalm*

5:48 am

amandacath

Wouldn't have gotten that one EP - thx.

5:50 am

El Payo

The last 35 words for me are some sub-dialect of Vogon.

5:50 am

Atalante

nope - the last 34 :P

5:50 am

casira

definitely Vogon. ;)

5:51 am

MarqueeMarc

Mh is related to ohms in mathmatics?

5:51 am

Atalante

very close marquee

5:51 am

amandacath

Only 26 of them - the rest are Klingon

5:51 am

MarqueeMarc

Any help w/ SEs? I'm stuck or stupid...

5:52 am

El Payo

1 is Wookie

5:52 am

El Payo

Se words are 'fishy' and French at the same time.

5:52 am

amandacath

Which one, EP?

5:53 am

casira

And don't go monkey-typing around the se without some caution, or you might end up with sexho. Again, I facepalm mightily.

5:53 am

david.m1fcf

if you were in+se5/10 you might be mad....

5:54 am

El Payo

I did manage to enter hotsex, but got nothing for it

5:54 am

amandacath

mo' sex, mopsex - eeewwww

5:55 am

david.m1fcf

"...or you might end up with sexho..." - could be worse, could end up with sexhoma - D'OH! or is it some new american state near oklahoma?

5:55 am

El Payo

se5/10 is both a purse and a net

5:55 am

El Payo

and a river too

5:55 am

casira

I keep wanting to type myopic. No, there is no c. No, there is no c....

5:57 am

MarqueeMarc

Okay people keep it coming! I need SE 6/18

5:57 am

david.m1fcf

OK - reached 40 words - what am I shooting for overall?

5:58 am

El Payo

125 total

5:58 am

amandacath

Mar - one who does the se5

5:58 am

FMitch

casera - knock off the c and add 2 other letters and you will get the my7.

5:59 am

El Payo

se - and the past tense of what that person did

5:59 am

MarqueeMarc

Amanda you are my fave! Anyone need anything?

5:59 am

amandacath

I broke 100!

6:00 am

FMitch

WTG amanda, the finish line is in sight.

Glad to say I am done as I have to go for a while, good hunting all.

6:02 am

El Payo

6:03 am

amandacath

well, that didn't get me far. Had the I's, missing one o - will seek it now

6:04 am

david.m1fcf

Do I get a prize for the longest sentence from this grid but still follow the rules of the game: "Six Hen May Top In Red"

amandacath

ooooh David, you beat me to it. I've been working on one for a while now but can't quite make it work:
Denise 'n Ernie O'Shay ....

6:09 am

MarqueeMarc

I have all the POs except PO 6/21! Help!

6:09 am

amandacath

Marc - think Happy Days (it's Ron Howard day, evidently)

6:11 am

Atalante

somehow I got that po6/21 after amanda's clue, but I've never watched Happy Days .... straneg!

6:12 am

MarqueeMarc

now what does that word mean? c'mon! It's a nickname!

6:13 am

amandacath

No idea what it means - it was in the grid yesterday as well, spelled differently

6:14 am

MarqueeMarc

Hint on OS 5/10?

6:15 am

amandacath

Help on the O's - I'm missing two (miscounted before). I've got 2 that mean thinking about something, 1 choosing, and 1 tree

6:16 am

Atalante

oa4 - something you eat in the mornings, op5 - a pigment in the eye

6:16 am

amandacath

Marc, the os 5/10 is the tree - end of someone who lives in Indiana

6:18 am

amandacath

Thx Atalante - got the o's now. Let's see, what can I ask about now. Any Y's? How many E's?

6:19 am

Atalante

no Ys. too many Es!

6:19 am

Atalante

make that 5 Es. mostly in Klingon

6:19 am

amandacath

eeewwww - guess that means more than the 4 E's I've got....

6:20 am

Atalante

wait - thats wrong - 5 from one E, 2 from another

6:20 am

amandacath

Oh! well, that doesn't sound so bad - will monkey type a bit

6:22 am

Atalante

brb dog angsting for a quick bounce around the garden

6:23 am

MarqueeMarc

I believe the term is "monkey typing". The second OP 5/12 and OP 4/5?

6:25 am

amandacath

the op4/5 = chooses; the op5/12 - Atalanta says it's a pigment in the eye - same ending as that my6

6:26 am

MarqueeMarc

Amanda I don't get this? Marc, the os 5/10 is the tree - end of someone who lives in Indiana

6:26 am

MarqueeMarc

Amanda! Never mind got it!

6:29 am

Pele

2nd time here

6:29 am

amandacath

Ok, I'll try again. The os5 is a type of tree. Since that isn't particularly helpful, probably ....
last letters of an Indiana native
more like where Dorothy went (sort of)

Does that help?

6:29 am

amandacath

Ah, you were quicker than my clue, Marc

6:30 am

MarqueeMarc

Yippee! 103 words 4.65 1131

6:30 am

amandacath

Welcome to your new addiction Pele!

6:31 am

Pele

Clue: also known as a geek

6:33 am

MarqueeMarc

I keep wanting poison to just magically be a word!

6:33 am

Pele

H-- with a plural

6:33 am

amandacath

DENISE and ERNIE O'SHAY had HOT SEX AT SEA

6:36 am

Pele

something you spray out fire with

6:37 am

MarqueeMarc

Now I'm stuck on NO 7/28. Anyone need anything?

6:38 am

Pele

yes

6:38 am

amandacath

alright, I'm getting the list for the last 18. I just can't see anything more

6:39 am

amandacath

Marc - no7 = louder

6:41 am

MarqueeMarc

Amanda I had that and misspelled it 10 times! AAAAAARRRRGGGGHHH!

Thank you!

6:42 am

amandacath

How 'bout the first de5/12?

6:43 am

MarqueeMarc

Amanda DE 5/12 is thick. Like a cake.

6:44 am

MarqueeMarc

NI 5/10? Anyone?

6:44 am

Atalante

one who believes in a higher power (I think - havent' got the list, but its *my* first de5)

6:44 am

amandacath

Got that one - there's one before that

6:45 am

MarqueeMarc

Oh sorry! The God clue is dead on!

6:45 am

amandacath

duh - thought it had something to do with that but wasn't seeing it - thx Ata!

MrP's list has 7 E's on it, btw

6:46 am

Atalante

yup - there's 5 from one E, 2 from another (I corrected myself right after saying there were 5 :)

6:47 am

amandacath

oh, sorry - sometimes I get lost in the log.
Don't have the ni either, Marc, but will look

6:48 am

Pele

its blueberry ---s

6:49 am

dawnio

hi there: would someone explain the "code"? For instance, what does PO 6/21 mean?

6:49 am

El Payo

ni - cheesy crackers?
or cheesy biscuits for folks in GB.

6:50 am

jmds

There's an ni 4/5 which is what an animal may do if it gives you a small bite...

6:50 am

MarqueeMarc

I need NI 5/10.

6:50 am

Atalante

2 of the n's - think divorce decrees

6:51 am

MarqueeMarc

And NE 5/10...

6:51 am

sandyloo

dawn if you go to angels page on the right hand side all will be revealed
po 6/6 for instance means the word starts with po and has 6 letters and is worth 6 points

6:51 am

spellit

ni 5/10 drop a vowel into the ni 4/4

6:51 am

Atalante

hey sandy and spellit :)

6:52 am

amandacath

got the ni5 - person born in America of parents who emigrated from Japan

I'd think it'd be a proper noun, but...

6:52 am

spellit

Hi Atalante

6:52 am

dawnio

wow, I got a message from Brad Pitt. thanks

6:52 am

amandacath

Hi Sandy! Hi Spellit!

6:55 am

amandacath

Dunno, EP. Dic says "see issei" but doesn't have a def for it

6:56 am

El Payo

I keep thinking I see the PIXIES in this puzzle.

6:56 am

El Payo

yeah issei - i thought it might be isei

6:57 am

sandyloo

dawn we have a theme every day Today is candy and my husband is eye candy , dont you think?

6:57 am

MarqueeMarc

El P I'm seeing stars! I'm delirious!

6:57 am

amandacath

ni4/4 rhymes with 'another word for simple'

6:58 am

Miyavi_fan

hey, homies :) Does anyone else keep seeing pixies?

(er, in the puzzle that is. but, you never know)

6:58 am

dawnio

yes! especially in THAT movie. let's see your boyfriend.

6:59 am

Miyavi_fan

oooh...El Payo...great minds think alike :)

6:59 am

amandacath

...uh, sorry - hit the button too soon. Then drop another vowel into it for the ni5/10.

ne5/10 rhymes with 'bank robbery'

6:59 am

El Payo

XD

6:59 am

MarqueeMarc

I'm @ 105! So close...

6:59 am

amandacath

Hi Miya!

7:00 am

Miyavi_fan

Hey Amanda! How goes it? :)

7:00 am

manju01

my god how do you guys reach 105!! im still at 50 and im lost! HELPP

7:00 am

Jen

Morning everyone!! :) How are we all today?

7:00 am

amandacath

Pretty well, thanks. This grid's a bit ugly

7:01 am

amandacath

Mornin' to ya, Jen!

7:01 am

sandyloo

ok im going to do the sudoku
dawn another good thing to try is the iron sudoku

7:01 am

jmds

Could someone give me a clue on the at 7/32 please?

7:01 am

Miyavi_fan

Top o' the mornin' to ya, Jen...even though it's about...1pm here :)

7:01 am

Jen

amanda, the bottom half went pretty quick for me... so maybe it's only the upper letters. :)

7:02 am

Atalante

time for a new pic of Hayden for the last few words :)

7:02 am

Haz1558

at 7/32 is formed by extending the at 4 to include pastry concoctions

7:03 am

MarqueeMarc

I don't understand NI 5/10 and I've been monkey typing it for an hour!

7:04 am

jmds

Thanks Haz

7:05 am

Haz1558

ni 5/10 - if you get a divorce, an intermediary stage is the decree ni** (latin meaning unless). Insert the second vowel in the middle of that word

7:05 am

amandacath

I managed 107 with help from everyone on the log - am now working off the list

7:06 am

Haz1558

Well- not quite the middle - penultimate letter

7:07 am

MarqueeMarc

let's do sounds like for NI 5/10 cause that divorce thing isn't workin!

7:08 am

miametro

ni, left, up, right.

7:08 am

manju01

same here.. couldnt understand that clue.. are you a lawyer??

7:09 am

spellit

NI 5/10 that's a splendid optic you have!

7:09 am

Atalante

we're not lawyers, we just know babblewords ;)

7:09 am

Haz1558

Okay, a different approach. Using needle and thread to stitch things together is to ? (three letter word). Replace the last letter (consonant) with a vowel

7:09 am

Miyavi_fan

Spellit, you're looking a little dark today :)

7:10 am

MarqueeMarc

miametro that was babble for idiots and I loved it! thank you!

7:10 am

spellit

Should be OK now Myavi - it's one of my granddaughters enjoying a lolly!

7:11 am

Atalante

that's funny, spellit, looks like a donkey to me ;)

*goes to refresh*!

7:11 am

manju01

finally got it.. please some more clues? :(

7:12 am

Miyavi_fan

Awww, Spellit! She's so sweet!

7:13 am

spellit

I have 3 now one only 18 days old

7:14 am

amandacath

Manju, I'd suggest you go to AngelSong'S Babble Page (in the "Friends of Babble" Box on the right), then click links, MrP's tick box list - then you can see what the words begin with and how long they are. It's difficult to give clues if we don't know what you're looking for

7:14 am

Miyavi_fan

*going all mushy* I WANT one LOL

7:15 am

Haz1558

NO you don't!

7:15 am

spellit

My donkey has gone now I hope. I may be old but I can tell the difference between a granddaughter and a donkey! More difficult with some of my grandsons though...

7:15 am

Jen

Miya, you can have mine! LOL 4 1/2, wonderful little boy... MOST of the time.

7:16 am

Haz1558

Miyavi - be very suspicious when people offer to let you have their children.....

7:17 am

Jen

Who, me, Haz? ;)

7:17 am

spellit

Be cautious Miyavi there are down sides - the latest baby is into spectacular projectile vomiting. It's a bit like pass the parcel when she has just been fed..

7:17 am

musicmom

Morning all. Trust me Miya - the cute is only part of the time. Enjoy other people's for a while. I can send you two.

7:17 am

Miyavi_fan

eh-heh...y'know, Jen, I'm not going to take apart a family :)

Spellit - LMAO!

*blinks* why, Haz...you make it sound like a bad thing XD

7:17 am

Jen

Oh no you don't MM, I'm already sending her mine!

7:18 am

musicmom

Ohhhh spellit my younger daughter did that .NOT fun!

7:18 am

spellit

I can thoroughly recommend grandchildren because you always get to give them back!

7:18 am

musicmom

Ahhhh yes Jen but if we overload her we can have a break and kill the baby lust at the same time.

7:18 am

Haz1558

I'm old and wise, Miyavi, and have developed a suspicious mind. You are young and innocent!

7:18 am

Jen

true... the perfect birth control, huh.

7:19 am

spellit

You are right it's not fun - quite amazing is more like it

7:19 am

musicmom

That's why I love my career spellit -- I give them back.

7:19 am

seanemcd

I have an 18 day old daughter. I'm thinking of sending her back, because she doesn't work properly ;-). She sleeps all day, and screams all night and I can't find the "Off" switch :D

7:19 am

musicmom

Ohhh sean been there and done that - twice.

7:20 am

Miyavi_fan

LOL Haz...young, yes...not so sure about the innocent ;)

7:20 am

Angelsong

Morning all.

7:20 am

Jen

Congrats sean!! parenthood is actually quite wonderful! (well, it was for me after the 1st 4 months when he finally quit eating EVERY 2 hours)

7:20 am

Haz1558

I always thought it would be great if babies came with lights on their forehead to indicate WHY they were crying. It does get better eventually.

7:21 am

bluephlox

how many words are there today?

7:21 am

musicmom

good morning angelson.

7:21 am

spellit

Sean you sound exactly like my son Jon - he is looking pretty awful after 18 days of Millie

7:21 am

7:22 am

musicmom

I really like it. I haven't changed much or played with it. Greg and I watched a movie last night since the kids were with Grandma. They come home today.

7:22 am

amandacath

MrP's list is missing an sh - it's on BJ's list though

7:22 am

musicmom

Hi Evan.

7:23 am

musicmom

Amanda - I find I have to use both lists. MrP was missing the ab yesterday.

7:23 am

amandacath

Oy - a spat of Babblers who've turned on their computers! Hi whoever I haven't said hi to!

7:24 am

Jen

I've never used MrP's list... we have "post-it notes" on the computer and I can copy BJ's list onto that and have it right next to the grid.

7:24 am

Miyavi_fan

oooh...got to go, all this talk of babies is bringing me out in a rash :) later!

7:25 am

MarqueeMarc

Anyone got a clue for MO 5/12?

7:25 am

Jen

Later Miy!

7:25 am

musicmom

bye miya --- get some benadryl. <G>

7:25 am

musicmom

Jen. That's a good idea. I wouldn't have to click back and forth and wouldn't lose them if I have to reboot.

7:26 am

amandacath

Marc - the things around castles

7:27 am

Jen

We have the freeware version MM. Had it forever, but I'm sure if you google it, it's still around. Plus, it's great for "real" notes that we "stick" on the desk top.

7:27 am

Angelsong

MM, Firefox extension, QuickNote may be just the thing you need for that task.

7:28 am

manju01

i cant get es6/24

7:28 am

musicmom

I use post-its already. Great for jotting (typing down ) a phone number or appointment when I'm working. I have it in a widget.

7:28 am

MarqueeMarc

Aamanda I'm delirious! I had the singular! How could I not have the plural!

7:28 am

musicmom

I didn't know about that Angelsong. Let me see if I can find it.

7:30 am

musicmom

Angel I need to upgrade my Firefox. I will do it after I'm done playing for a while.

7:31 am

amandacath

DONE!!!!
Marc, that happens to me more often than I'd like to admit.
Manju, the es6/24 = saw somthing, found something

7:31 am

Jen

WTG amanda! :)

7:32 am

Angelsong

:) I use Firefox 1.5 quite happily on my pc. Been using Firefox since around version .7 or so, maybe about 2.5 years.

7:33 am

7:33 am

Greg had me switch to Firefox from Safari about a year ago when I started my business. The virtual office server didn't like Safari at all.

7:34 am

7:36 am

sukee

Hi, I'm new. Just trying to get into a groove :)

At work so won't be chatting much.

7:36 am

Angelsong

FYI, Babblers, if you have a homepage/website, there's something on the Resource page you should read.

7:36 am

gramma

Here you go, musicmom. Your a stweetie!

7:37 am

Atalante

! have 6s to find. That's what disturbs me immensely!

7:37 am

musicmom

What does it refer to Angel?

7:37 am

musicmom

Yummers! Thanks gramma! I miss my gramma

7:38 am

Jen

Hi sukee and welcome to the mad house! :)

7:38 am

musicmom

Ata - I'm not too far into the grid. But I'll try to help if I can. Instead of using the list ask me questions - that's what hurshy does:-))

7:38 am

Angelsong

MM...the heading is: Babblers' Websites Wanted.

7:38 am

musicmom

Hi Sukee.

7:39 am

MarqueeMarc

Anyone got MA 5/14 & MA 6/24?

7:39 am

Atalante

thanks MM :) I certainly will when I can narrow things down enough to find sensible questions to ask!

7:39 am

Haz1558

ma 5/14 - add a gardening implement

7:40 am

musicmom

Okay. I'll check it out. You probably don't want mine - it is commercial. I don't want to offend anyone.

7:41 am

MarqueeMarc

Haz! Thanks! MA 6/24? Anyone need anything almost done here.

7:41 am

EvaNadine

*YAY WAFFLES!!*

wow anj -- we almost match...heh

7:42 am

musicmom

Evan I think I missed something...

7:43 am

Anj

Great minds think alike EvaN : D

7:44 am

Jen

Anj, I thought that started out as "fools think alike..."

7:45 am

Anj

Mab, that depends which side of the Senate you're sitting on : D

7:45 am

Jen

(no offence evaN) :)

7:46 am

good afternoon everyone ;-)

7:46 am

any clues for the m7 that doesn't sound like Mr. Magoo's vision? (near-sighted).

7:46 am

Anj

Jakes! Long time no see : D

7:47 am

Haz1558

mo 7 - superlative for word meaning sulky

I don't think there are any ata.

7:52 am

Ouwachita

7:52 am

Atalante

duh. sorry, I mean s6's

7:52 am

Angelsong

I'm off to the doctor's to find out results of a sleep apnea study. Later....

7:52 am

Shatterproof

Yes please. I have 50 words. I needs clues for the rest ;-p
How many words do people get if you don't have access to the stats page?

7:53 am

bye angel.

7:53 am

jakes-mum

Hiya Jen & music mom (it's definitely tan attack!! we are off to Gran Canaria for the week - and yes I got thw permission from the school to remove my son for a week, though you would have thought I was asking for their first born the way they took it)

7:53 am

Jen

4 s6's ata.

7:53 am

godthaab

Ouw.
Any hints about any Res?
Thanks

7:53 am

thanks MM! That missing S can just wait till last then!

7:54 am

Ouwachita

shatter...I dont have the stats page, but i use Babblers Anonymous and have all 125 for today

7:54 am

musicmom

Jakes - we are going through that here. Want to take hte kids out for a week in May for my mom's birthday (we are taking her on a trip.). I figure my kids - I'll take them if I want.

7:54 am

sukee

I'm so new I needs clues to the clues :)

7:54 am

Shatterproof

wunderbar! Merci.

7:55 am

musicmom

Sukee - read Angelsong's page at the right (in the Friends box). SHe has lots of clues and helps there.

7:56 am

Jen

As a former teacher, it's kind of understandable... it can be tough having kids gone for a week and then having to catch them up again. :)

7:56 am

jakes-mum

It's mad, my son is only 4 so what life altering information would he miss from a week off school? I have yet to tell them he is coming out next november aswell for 2 weeks for his aunts (my sister) wedding in Calgary, wonder how theyll take that lol

7:56 am

musicmom

Need to step out for a minute. be back very soon.

7:57 am

Haz1558

My sister-in-law is a teacher and finds it tough to get children caught up again. Don't forget that if everyone takes the same attitude, there's a lot of extra work for the teachers.

7:57 am

musicmom

Stick to your guns jake - he will be better for spending time with family. I have a 5 year old and an 11 year old. The 11 year old is a straight a student who wants to take work with her (voluntarily) I really don't think missing a week of school is going to kill her.

7:57 am

jakes-mum

oops lunch is over, go to go! bye all xx

7:58 am

Jen

Hmm, at 4, I'm assuming it's more a concern for continuity for you son, more than anything else.

7:58 am

musicmom

I agree Haz - I used to teach public school. But also, especially with the preschool/kindergarten set there really isn't a lot of make up to be done. Giving them ample warning of an impending leave is good too.

7:59 am

musicmom

the irritating thing here is that the teachers take the time off. That sets an example I think.

8:01 am

Jen

We were never "allowed" to do that (a day here or there yes) but it was always my opinion that heck, I am a teacher, I have the whole frickin' summer!! It wouldn't be fair to my students anyway.

8:02 am

MarqueeMarc

Does anyone have SH 6/30 and the second SH 4/6?

8:03 am

musicmom

Yep Jen. That is what I think. But I feel that if the school district allows the teachers to do it, they shouldn't throw a fit about the students. BTW we don't ever do this. This is an exception because it was the ONLY time we could schedule the cabin, my sister and brother in law, both of us and my mom to go at one time.

8:04 am

Jen

Marc, for the sh6, think of the name of the famous Sea World orca and change the last letter to another vowel and the sometimes vowel.

8:04 am

Haz1558

sh 6/30 is composed of the fake sh4 and a two letter shout

8:05 am

musicmom

ICK they are talking about jeweled cockroaches on leashes for jewelry. EEEWEWWEWWWW

8:05 am

Haz1558

The second sh 4/6 - add a shortened version of Maureen

8:05 am

musicmom

one of the sh4/6 is what you do when you buy things.

8:06 am

sukee

yay, I got one from a clue...ty Jen :)

8:06 am

spellit

I'm done so clues available for a while

8:07 am

sh6 is an alternate spelling for the soft leather cloth for cleaning windows - sounds almost the same

8:10 am

Haz1558

Sh6/24 - take sh4/6 meaning fake, add a vowel and a sometimes vowel (y)

8:10 am

MarqueeMarc

chamois?

8:10 am

spellit

I saw loads of cockroaches in Cameroon and I think they were rocket assisted. Catching them to stomp on was not easy!

8:10 am

spellit

Yes that's the word

8:10 am

72 Temple Owl

ty spellit and well done!

8:11 am

spellit

Now just be a bit creative with the spelling

8:11 am

Jen

The ones in Florida are big, dumb, and slow.

LOL mom!

8:31 am

bluephlox

pi 6/24 is somethign you stick in fabric, then a sound young valley girls say when you say something obvious

8:31 am

spellit

Surely you have the third pi4/5 - it's a tree and wood used for furniture

8:31 am

musicmom

No backfiring. TO. That was in yesterday's grid>

8:34 am

Atalante

I've got 3 eo's, 1 er, 1 ex and 1 es. What's the missing one, please?

yeah me too, I get home one day, and my roommate is all like "hey, I sent you a link." I look at it, and for the next five hours, I'm glued. I skipped dinner trying to finish before the grid ended, and then...a new grid was started. I was up entirely too late that first night. Shortly afterward, I started babbling at work and the rest is history.

Although Deutsch, having been into j-rock for a considerable amount of time, I've discovered some men can just look plain good in a skirt. I have yet to make my guy mates wear them, but you know it's only a matter of time...

11:56 am

11:56 am

Miyavi_fan

Boreetos, one must wonder why you're so well informed when it comes to kilts...:)

chocolate? ?????

11:57 am

anyone care to explain? :)

12:24 pm

Haz1558

pi6/24 - sharp needle-like object (first three letters) then three letters from words relating to skin. The word means someone who impounds.

princess, that stumped me when I joined the other day too. We're referencing this list: http://www.bouncybaby.com.au/b abble.html

12:26 pm

GreyWoulf

princessmisssy -- st4/5 means that the word starts with st, is 4 letters long and has a point value of 5 points

12:26 pm

Haz1558

We use a kind of shorthand to give clues to words. The st4/5 is a word that has 4 letters and gives 5 points. It means to cease. The es5 is the same word, except that it has an e in front.

princessmissy

thank you cybernan

12:56 pm

rebekb

thank you. I had to look that one up!

12:56 pm

evanonut

well smaller, he is superhero-esque

12:56 pm

HollyBug

Today is a silly good day.

12:56 pm

fakeplastic

i suck at this game. i only have 58 words. :/

12:56 pm

vpchat

can anyone help with am7/32 and am7/40?

12:56 pm

cybernan

Would anyone like a clue before I leave?

12:57 pm

smaller

Hi HollyBug!

nut - oh yes, and picturing him as the Rock is swaying my vote

12:57 pm

HollyBug

Hehe. hi hi. How are you? :o)

12:57 pm

godthaab

7/32-forgot about it

12:58 pm

evanonut

smaller - i'm rather hurt that you never took my word that he was the hotter of the two.

12:58 pm

cybernan

Hi Hurshy -- just saw your clue as I browsed back through the log --- thank you.

12:59 pm

evanonut

hurshy? is hurshy in here?

12:59 pm

smaller

nut-dear,
note the verb tense in "swaying", not all the way there yet. he's making less of an appearance in Hot Six which I'm on right now. My devotion to him is proximity based.

1:00 pm

cybernan

Since nobody seems to need any help, I will be on my way -- back at the flip. :)

1:00 pm

stidmama

fakeplastic, don't sweat it. The first day I had a real hard time figuring things out, and now things seem easier. A couple days ago someone said that the stranger 4-letter words seem to appear regularly and soon are easier to find.

1:01 pm

evanonut

smaller, 7 and 8 will be the clinchers for you.

1:01 pm

cybernan

am 7/32: loss of memory
am 7/40: protection from prosecution

1:01 pm

fakeplastic

thanks stid :)

1:02 pm

princessmissy

im feeling the same way fakeplastic.. this is my fist time and i only have 46 after an hour

1:02 pm

princessmissy

would probably help if i didnt make typos lol :P

1:02 pm

vpchat

thanks cybernan!

1:02 pm

casira

third here, and I'm at 66... I keep staring at this like HOW CAN I ONLY BE HALFWAY? :)

1:03 pm

smaller

nut,
woohoo!

casira,
you're farther than I am!

1:03 pm

fakeplastic

how many words are there total? can someone share?

1:04 pm

vpchat

125 total

1:04 pm

princessmissy

casira... hmm. you might be the one that passed this addiction on to me? lol. i could be wrong, just taking a guess from your name. :P

1:04 pm

cybernan

125 total words
4-letter words: 70
5-letter words: 30
6-letter words: 18
7-letter words: 7

1:04 pm

smaller

125,
isn't plastic fake already?

1:05 pm

fakeplastic

thanks all :)

and yes, yes it is.

1:06 pm

smaller

so is that like a double negative and you're an au naturale kinda person?

1:06 pm

cybernan

fake & princess -- this was a really tough grid to hit for your first one! There are more unusual words than normal -- I found a lot of them by using point values and monkey typing.

1:06 pm

princessmissy

lol @ monkey typing, ive done a bit of that and got a little lucky. watching the clues you all share is a big help too.

1:07 pm

fakeplastic

yeah, that's kind of it, smaller. that and i just love radiohead :)

1:08 pm

princessmissy

i had to clean radioheads tour bus once... lol it was an awful awful mess but i got paid well and got to take home the rest of the unopened liquore then had left on there lol :P

1:08 pm

fakeplastic

i think sexn should be a word. *giggle*

1:09 pm

smaller

OHHHH now i get it!!!!!

1:10 pm

cybernan

I really do encourage all the 'newbies' to go pro -- $10 for a lifetime membership isn't bad -- it's nice to have a game site with no advertising! You also get the stats board, and are able to join in with the icons and profiles.

1:10 pm

Farruska

hello

1:10 pm

Jera

Greetings all! How goes it today?

1:10 pm

fakeplastic

yeah, i'm debating it. i probably will once i'm thoroughly addicted.

1:11 pm

princessmissy

$10 for a lifetime membership? i just might have to consider that, though $10 is a lot in my world right now.

1:11 pm

cybik

$10 is a lot when you're a student :(

(i'm also new here :)

1:11 pm

ruthy

that me finished

1:12 pm

cybernan

Congrats, Ruthy *!*

1:12 pm

cybernan

see you later..........

1:12 pm

Vicuna

You're always welcome whether you're pro or not. Keep playing, and some time later when you come into your inheritance, you can join then!

1:12 pm

Rlee

good morning all

1:13 pm

smaller

hi and bye farruska and rlee!

bbl all!

1:13 pm

princessmissy

inhertiance LOL yesss that's what i need. or a winning lottery ticket (though that's hard to get your hands on when you don't play to begin with :P hehe)

1:15 pm

Vicuna

Yeah, it was a joke. But think of it this way: ten times of not playing the lottery and there you are with a $10 inheritance! (Or maybe some food on the table...)

1:15 pm

princessmissy

lol :P

1:19 pm

Farruska

how's the grid today?

1:19 pm

Vicuna

Not too long, but a lot of strange words.

1:19 pm

jasonplancaster

look! I'm pro! woohoo :)

1:19 pm

fakeplastic

well, thank you all for your help. i'm sure i'll be talking to you more, and probably going pro soon.

1:21 pm

Vicuna

Cybernan will be proud of you, jason! She was just encouraging people to go pro!

1:22 pm

jasonplancaster

i saw after i did it... that's kind of why i said it but i was too busy building my profile to chime in sooner :)

1:23 pm

evanonut

jasonplancaster

1:23 pm

evanonut

1:24 pm

jasonplancaster

it's easy... shoot to kill!

1:24 pm

princessmissy

gotta go for a bit. thanks for the help and encouragement everyone, im sure ill be talking to you all again :)

1:24 pm

evanonut

don't think i'd want to play it though, got shot with a pellet gun once and wasn't fond of the experience.

1:25 pm

Vicuna

I've never done it, but my husband has. He comes home covered in horrible welts and I can't figure out why anyone would want to do that! :)

1:25 pm

jasonplancaster

i'm doing terrible with the 4 letter words today. what's up with them?

1:26 pm

evanonut

not to mention i think it would make people more comfortable with shooting a real gun at people.

1:26 pm

Praes

i've done it a couple of times. Then a 7yr old blasted me in the back of the neck from about 20 yards out.
I about killed the punk. After that i said never again. Lazer Tag only.....

1:26 pm

jasonplancaster

vicuna: im not sure if url's will paste here but you can see come cool welts from my last game: http://www.jasonplancaster.com /gallery2/v/skirmish_stalingra d_06/IMG_0283.JPG.html

1:33 pm

Vicuna

There are a total of 9 ho's. (I knew this conversation was going to get into the gutter!)

1:34 pm

peester

Luther, if the ho's are killing you, it's because, as the academy award winning song says, it's hard out there for a pimp! LOL Hi all!

1:34 pm

evanonut

hmm, haven't seen a single ho yet, but then, i live in the boon docks

1:34 pm

1:36 pm

peester

1:37 pm

Vicuna

My Fair Lady reference: "There's them that would kill for a ha6, much less a ha3." Ha7 is pl.

I knew it was something obvious! Just not obvious to me.

Two words left...

1:38 pm

bye boreetos -have a great weekend

5:10 pm

smithchick

No, again... hubby is THE world's largest cheapskate. We went skating, to the movies, and the kids swimmed in the hotel pool. Did I mention that we get the room for free using Marriot points (of which my hubby has hundreds of thousands). He splurged for breakfast buffet at Shoney's and I did a little bit of shopping for the kids while he and they waited in the car. Then home. A good time was not had by all. Too short. It was to cold to do anything outdoorsy.

5:10 pm

6:42 pm

hurshy

6:42 pm

faintly

Jason, use the other i.

6:43 pm

hurshy

thank you smith, that's so sweet

6:44 pm

hurshy

i think this is in a way harder than hell, because you have to make yourself stay here - you have to overcome the tempation to leave. whereas with hell, you're just stuck there.

6:44 pm

7:32 pm

CJ162003

how are you GW?

7:34 pm

GreyWoulf

Doing pretty good -- my only real frustration right now, other than waiting on becoming a permanant hire at my job, is that Seb is a typical infant --- utterly unpredictable! He gives me good night and then has a couple of fussy ones in a row --- The saving grace is that his sister is very understanding and well behaved :)

7:35 pm

CJ162003

lol... i understand waiting on becoming a full time hire.. i've been waiting 2 years

7:36 pm

GreyWoulf

Wow, that's a long time, CJ -- my friend just got picked up after a year herself -- I will send you some good positive energy.

7:37 pm

guigrrl

GW -- don't you love teething? We're going through that now. My little one was a 'perfect' baby -- until now. Fortunately I have an amazing hubby that helps a ton.

7:37 pm

CJ162003

its coming very soon

7:38 pm

GreyWoulf

guigrrl -- I have a feeling teething is going to be a breeze compared to this -- Children's Tylenol and Motrin are wonderful things :D

7:39 pm

GreyWoulf

Seb's problem is that he is way too adept at concealing burps. As a result, he ends up getting really fussy as the gas works its way through his system.

7:40 pm

guigrrl

:( I'm sorry. I know its not fun.

Thank GOD for Motrin! Motrin can keep him comfortable nearly through the night :) I just picked up some baby nightime orajel -- I'm hoping that helps too.

7:41 pm

guigrrl

Oh no! not good :( Poor Seb

7:41 pm

periwinkle

Hi everyone!!! po6/21?

7:42 pm

GreyWoulf

My experience was that the orajel would last just long enough for the motrin to kick in.... which is another blessing for haggard parents. BTW, congrats on having a supportive hubby!

7:42 pm

GreyWoulf

((**peri**)) -- how have you been, lady?

8:07 pm

lgorms

lucky, how do you make something more than another? (think comparative and superlatives)

8:07 pm

LeslieAnn

Smiley23_47393

yuck

8:08 pm

piperb

Eva: It's like what they add to salt, only one letter is different

8:39 pm

Angela

I'm getting closer to finishing with each day... I shall return tomorrow :)

8:40 pm

evilolive

hi everyone, i'm stuck with my7/44. Any hints?

8:40 pm

8:40 pm

GreyWoulf

That's the spirit, Angela -- you don't have to finish, you just have to have fun!!

8:40 pm

Angela

I don't use the lists - I just go by the stats so I'm not really sure which ones I'm missing...

8:40 pm

lgorms

no 7/28: is more that no 5/10

8:40 pm

Hi Grey did your daugther like your story?

8:41 pm

Jen

Yup, I tried entering the er4/4 and everything just sort of crashed! I think we need to get a new router this weekend (and it has to be landed, since we are in an apartment and I refuse to lower my guard with a wireless around here!)

8:41 pm

Angela

Thanks Grey! I actually read somewhere that it increases brain power if you DON'T finish...if a puzzle is too easy it doesn't make you smarter. At least that's what I'm going with!

8:41 pm

guigrrl

OMG Grey -- you are a good dad :)

8:42 pm

evilolive

thanks leslie. i must have tried everything but that...

8:42 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Woulfie: You are a good father. Welcome.

8:42 pm

Jen

8:42 pm

LeslieAnn

jen, if you're in an apt. you could hook up the wireless and you guys use someone else's connection ;)

8:42 pm

Jen

Hey woulfie!! Didn't see ya there! :)

8:42 pm

guigrrl

<<<bowing to Jen>>> ty!

8:43 pm

GreyWoulf

I like your attitude, Angela -- go get some good sleep-- maybe you can use some of the sleep I am not getting these days :)

8:43 pm

lgorms

lucky: mo 7/32 = the most mo6/24
mo6/27 = similar to mo6/24 but change the ending to the like suffix (rhymes with the thing you eat food on)

8:43 pm

Jen

LeslieAnn, we did that when we first moved in and it scared the *hit out of us... prompting us to go the wired LAN! (we were able to hook into at least 7 different networks on a good day)

8:44 pm

lgorms

night all!

8:44 pm

JeeWhiz

8:47 pm

JoJoFunLvg

GWoulfie: Yeh, I was down at the Mariner's Spring Training for a week or so +. But have been onto Babble since them, but no one I talk to were on, including yourself, so just worked the grid. How is Seb doing?

Leslie-yesterday a neighbor asked if I knew how to waltz, as he needs to learn (never found out why this was an urgent need). Haven't waltezed since about 4th grade, and that was a loooong time ago. He went looking for a pro.,

8:52 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Eastern, glad to have you back on when I am on. Miss you all.

8:52 pm

EasternBlue

Eva - just count 1-2-3, 1-2-3....you can't go wrong!!

8:53 pm

EasternBlue

JoJo...same here...I thought I'd sneak on, see who was here & lo & behold, it feels like the whole gang!! 8 )

8:53 pm

Eva

I'd really like to learn how to do the Argentinian tango- but haven't had the nerve.

8:53 pm

LeslieAnn

why were you waltzing in fourth grade??

8:53 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Eva: On waltzing, all you have to do is follow the man when dancing. And I emphasize, WHEN DANCING!!!

8:54 pm

LUCKY

At 7/32 anyone?

8:54 pm

Eva

I don't know...went to a rather creative, "progressive" school and sometimes they would just put music on for gym class and we would dance.

8:54 pm

EasternBlue

@}-->----->------------

E va - a rose to hold between your teeth for your tango...

8:55 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Eastern: Yeh, it is always good to chat with friends, whether you know them or not in person. Glad to have you back.

8:55 pm

Eva

Absolutely Jo! Wouldn't want to let that spread.

8:55 pm

Eva

aw shucks EB-you shouldn't have.

8:56 pm

mamabear

Haven't seen you for a while JoJo, how ya been?
We used to dance in gym class in high school - square dance, all kinds. But no slow dancing. Weren't allowed to touch boys ..... could be considered PDA!

8:56 pm

Eva

I just realized that my icon looks like some abstract design. Actually, it's a baby tiger yawning.

8:56 pm

GreyWoulf

Hey! Please try to remember that there IS a gentleman present, ladies! ;)

(Though I must shamefully admit that my dancing skills are woefully underwhelming)

8:57 pm

Eva

MAMA-what's PDA?

8:57 pm

EasternBlue

we did square dancing & the bunny hop in elementary school....

8:58 pm

EasternBlue

eva - PDA = public displays of affection

8:58 pm

mamabear

Eva - I saw him right away!!!! A baby anything is adorable when yawning!
PDA = Public Display of Affection...

8:58 pm

GreyWoulf

And now it is time for Seb to assume his traditional place on my chest, while his momma writes on the couch :)

8:58 pm

Eva

I remember the bunny hop well! And what about the hokey pokey?

8:58 pm

Jen

PDA, public display of affection

8:58 pm

mamabear

GW - don't let Kirsten write on the couch - it sets a bad example for Kristianna, plus it's really hard to get out! LOL

8:59 pm

Eva

MAMA-where was this that PDA's were banned? Did you go to a Catholic school?

8:59 pm

GreyWoulf

ROFLMAO!!!!!!

8:59 pm

EasternBlue

aw, woulfie...that's the best feeling in the world...

no kids of my own...but I now have 12 nieces & nephews...my sister just had a boy on Wednesday....8 )

8:59 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Mama been good. When I was in Jr. High I an Arthur Murray class on dancing, and still remember all the steps today. However, we were dancing with BOYS!!! Heaven forbid!!! What crap happened back in the 50's and 60's.

9:00 pm

Jen

I just went to a prep school and overt signs of PDA were broken up.

9:00 pm

mamabear

Congrats, Auntie EB!!!!!!

9:00 pm

mamabear

Eva - I went to a Lutheran High School. Got several detentions for PDA (only holding hands in the hallway)

9:01 pm

GreyWoulf

Congrats, EB!!!! And boy do you get to have fun spoiling them, I bet!

9:01 pm

EasternBlue

Woulfie - the all live a distance aways... : (
I'll be heading down in about a month to visit my sister tho!!

9:02 pm

Eva

One would think that in this leftist, progressive school, there would have been all kinds of PDA"S (and worse), but there were only 24 in my class and most of us were together from 6 years old through 12th grade, so it was hard to see each other as any kind of sexual potential...it almost felt incestuous.

9:02 pm

EasternBlue

oo
O

(my look of shock & horror Mama!!) LOL!!

9:02 pm

LUCKY

EB congrats have fun and enjoy ... wish my nieces where living closer!

9:03 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Woulfie: There is nothing wrong with writing on the couch, for cryin' out loud. Do what what you can wherever you can. That was my motto when my kids were growing up. Just as long you are with the kids at the time.

9:03 pm

mamabear

LOL.... we weren't allowed to wear pants either - had to wear skirts and they were measured so as not to be too short.

9:03 pm

Eva

Don't think I have ever know a Lutheran. Only know the Lutheran jokes from Prairie Home Companion.

9:04 pm

LUCKY

at 7/32 anyone please ... I'm trying to finish again today .. only 18 left

9:04 pm

mamabear

You're right JoJo, but at least use washable markers - but even those tend to leave a stain.....

mamabear

Well you do now, Eva!

Eva

Okay, time to go to bed. see you all tomorrow. Nite all.

Thanks guys! Can you believe that once I got internet back, the very first thing I did was come here to finish up!! Haven't checked e-mails or news yet!! Think I'll actually see if there's anything important going on in the world (other than Duke getting their butt kick in b-ball).

Have a great night everyone!! :)

9:10 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Mama: We couldn't wear pantsuits at work until 1970. How about those apples. We always had to wear skirts or suits and those dreaded High heels, that ruined our feet.

9:35 pm

EasternBlue

CJ162003

That's not where my hand is ..

10:10 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Eastern: Yeh, you are right about that. Course we are NEVER out of hand ~~ right ~~~ right??? ~~~ right everyone???

10:10 pm

GreyWoulf

Rainlia -- click on the lonk to Angelsong's Babble Page in the box to the right and you will find a wonderful resource for gaining understanding of the wonderful world of Babble

But the basic idea is that you are trying to locate all the sneaky little words which are hiding in the grid. If you need help you use the chat log to get help. If you don't need help, you use the log to make friends and have fun :D

10:10 pm

72 Temple Owl

hi doxy! : ) was anyone here earlier when nut mentioned something that we could bev chastised for using profanity in the log? was that a joke?

10:10 pm

EasternBlue

*blushes*

Oh MY!!!

10:11 pm

mamabear

Not I, Temple, what happened?

10:11 pm

GreyWoulf

oops, I meant link, not lonk :)

10:11 pm

LUCKY

Anyone can't get the clue for io6/18 and the
ma 5/14 and ma 6/24 (gardentool?????)

10:11 pm

torgone

Actual profanity is frowned upon. Suggestive innuendo is pretty much okay this time of night ..

10:11 pm

EasternBlue

T-Owl, I think it bleeps words...maybe if you used them excessively, Dr_God might send a note...but I don't know for sure...

10:12 pm

LeslieAnn

i have sworn on here before and never heard anything about it... maybe if someone complains

10:12 pm

torgone

Real bad words are bleeped, too ..

10:12 pm

andy12489

io 6/18 - a [process hjow to create io 4/4 using a old English spelling

10:12 pm

Onpaki

i havent got any of the io's & my's.

10:13 pm

72 Temple Owl

i'd page back but site is acting up and i am trying to finish then finish schoolwork...i think it was about 2:30 log time..i'll ask her tomorrow

10:14 pm

mamabear

Was someone using profanity then, TO?

10:15 pm

torgone

If anyone has a problem with the chat, just saying something usually gets people to moderate themselves. We're a (mostly) civil bunch here ..

10:15 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Oh ~~ for Cryin' out loud~~ this is the 21st century, if people can't take some profanity then don't log on!! I have never seen any vulgar language on Babble, so whoever is complaining, log off or STFU!!

10:16 pm

72 Temple Owl

not today that i'm aware of - i'll have to ask - i'd hate to start rumors - the one about you and tor is bad enough...

10:16 pm

Mama-you crack me up! I'll dip my toes in if everyone's good with that. And barkeep, I'll take a 7 UP.

10:27 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Raini: Sort of like scrabble. You have letters and you have to form them into words. Just try the grid to find words that you can see, and you can look at directions later when you get the jist of it. That's what I did.

10:27 pm

torgone

Woulfie the first op 5/12 if I get your clue the word is not validated with me. what am I doing wrong?

10:28 pm

CJ162003

tor- what did it say?

10:28 pm

kristinc

first (I think) op 5/12 is o+pi 4/4.

10:28 pm

GreyWoulf

Rainlia -- the basic idea is that there are words hidden in the grid. The key is that they are not all in a straight line like your standard word search puzzle. Instead they are all twisty and bendy. You have to link the letters in a continuous path without using any tile twice in the same word in order to find them.

10:28 pm

CJ162003

mama- anything for you

10:28 pm

Rainlia

does this seem really hard just because they are very unusual words? or are they normal words i'm just not seeing them?

10:29 pm

10:32 pm

GreyWoulf

Rainlia -- the letters are the 1st 2 letters of the word in question followed by the length and the point value

Kristi -- I highly recommend the stories -- the short stories were all collected into a volume called The Callahan Chronicals. If you like fun character driven contemporary SF and a strong tolerance for puns, you will like it. Once he started writing novel length stories, they lost something.. at least in my opinion.

10:55 pm

GreyWoulf

Rainlia - if you really like what you see, you can also pay the 9.95 to go pro and you gain access to the ability to post an icon (which you can change as often as you want), can post a bio to share with others, and you can use the stats on the screen which gives a breakdown of number of words and how many of each length, plus how many words originate from each square on the grid

11:01 pm

LUCKY

MAMA how about your score then.... you need to work on that tooo .... once in a while anyway!

11:02 pm

mamabear

Lucky - I got real disillusioned with the stats one weekend when I didn't finish the puzzle = my score went down over 40 points in one day. Then each time I finished one, it went up one or 2 and sometimes when I didn't play it went down. So I don't even look at it anymore.
