Uh, okay, ch1212!
You're right, it does look like a pig...but it's actually a dancing cat with a tiny tutu (head is flung to the right).
Leftover from Dance day a few weeks ago.

stid.......
the mare (Iris) is doing FANTASTIC. she is walking and complaining about not enough food (must reintroduce slowly) and the filly (Luna) is even better. God is very very good.
The dog (Res, as he was rescued from an Indian reservation) is still recovering. His leg is massive but he shouldn't suffer any tissue loss nor the leg.
Me? Heck, I have finished (with tremendous help) the last two puzzles! I am very good.
12:10 am
JBsAnno
bbnaz, you're my current hero! I haven't finished a puzzle for ages (months at least)!

And before I really get into the grid, I will quote the most used line in the movies:
"Let's get out of here!"
So, I'm going, but I bequeath the M&M's to Stidmama to share out - don't get your keyboards sticky...
Good night!
12:14 am

Soni, by "it takes spanish, but not navajo," do you mean 'hora?' It's also the name of a dance, you know. :P
I was looking all over for Shamu ... until I realized what you meant and I already had it :P
12:28 am

6:40 am
capone

6:40 am
bex777
capone if u use itunes all the time u should get limewire
6:41 am
faeriekae
Jera - make him fix it - I hate when that happens lol.
6:41 am
Jera
I'm the only one up, or I would.
6:42 am
jaianniah
I don't know what it means, either- it sounds like the study of the sexual hormone producers- I'll look it up!
6:42 am
katieW
Jera - I think that's a waking offence - I'm sure he won't mind ;)
6:42 am
capone
i dont mind paying for my music (esp since i know what its like to create something and not get paid for it...lol), but i am updating my limewire now b/c itunes STILL doesn't carry "headless cross" from black sabbath!
6:43 am
faeriekae
Jera - Wouldn't he just die just you went and woke him up to fix the computer so you can Babble without eye strain. *teehee* See I would do that.
6:44 am
Jera
You don't know my husband the night owl. I have another gripe... he forgot a bag of trash in here. I figure if I can collect it, he should take them out!
6:44 am
faeriekae
Capone I seen Black Sabbath in concert 6 times. They really rock.
6:45 am
mrpresident
Evening everyone! Morning on the other side!!
6:45 am
jaianniah
Go 5 is an Indian carp- not much help- but there sure are a LOT of places that end with it- like a country that starts Pat.....
6:45 am
capone
only saw them live once, the '94 "cross purposes" tour, but i love the tony martin era of the band.
6:45 am
faeriekae
Oh yea Jera - he would be up right now if he lived with me or maybe I would just save it and slap him with it all as soon as his feet hit the floor. LOL
6:45 am
mrpresident
You guys are so cool!! Lickety is chuffed!!
6:46 am
Jera
Oooh, even better... the kids are getting up. I usually try to keep them quiet until a decent hour, but I'm considering siccing them on him.
Yes, I'm passive-aggressive.
6:46 am
faeriekae
Mr P - I couldn't do the grid with the list. Lickety rocks.
6:47 am
Jera
Gwyd's on about his crayons... left them in the car last night & I ain't gong out in the rain tp fetch them for his majesty...
6:47 am
faeriekae
Jera - get the kids all riled up and loud and that will get him up.
6:47 am
Jera
Okay, is chuffed good or bad?
6:48 am
Jera
The Sprite is still sleeping like one dead.
6:48 am
katieW
Chuffed is good, but can be used sarcastically
6:48 am
mrpresident
Jera... chuffed is pumped!! happy as a tent in a camp site!!
6:48 am
faeriekae
Not sure Jera
6:49 am
Aloyisius
I be done. Lickety - thank you for the "non-box" option on your wonderful site; sometimes when we travel I have to print out a worksheet, and that REALLY helps. Anyone need a clue before I go greet the sun?
6:49 am
capone
man I gotta teach TSM about good "sex" music (lyrics wise), shes always telling me about some stupid nickelback song...think i'll mke her a cd of some old whitesnake (slip of the tongue era).....kids these days, NICKELBACK?
6:49 am
Jera
So if someone is chuffed & you gave them the mickey, that would be mean, right?
6:49 am
faeriekae
Capone I saw them in 76, 78, 82, 85, 88, 01
6:50 am
Jera
Whitesnake ROCKS!
6:50 am
capone
Sab or Snake Faerie?
6:51 am
katieW
Not sure what context mickey is being used. Over here to take the mickey means to poke fun as someone
6:51 am
faeriekae
Poison rocks along with AC/DC.
6:52 am
capone
Poison?
ROFL
6:52 am
Jera
OKay, I've been reading Harry Potter again. Somebody had done something good but wasn't telling anyone, thinking they'd be teased. So that makes sense.
6:53 am
mrpresident
AC/DC rocks all over Poison!
6:53 am
faeriekae
Capone I like Sabbath and White Snake and most of the old rockers.
6:53 am
faeriekae
Mr P - your right AC/DC is fantastic.
6:53 am
katieW
Jera what book and page I will read it and double check for you
6:54 am
capone
Sorry Faerie, I admit I do have the first 3 Poison cd's but only cause the girls loved them back in the day!
Jovi, Skid Row, KISS....now those are my staples
6:54 am
Jera
I don't remember exactly, i think it was about Ron being a prefect??
6:54 am
faeriekae
Love Angus Young he has more energy than anyone else on the face of this earth.....
6:55 am
katieW
I saw jovi about 13 years ago, they were awful, I am assuming it was at the hight of their excesses but it has put me off them for life
6:55 am
faeriekae
Capone - see - that's right the girls like them. Kiss is alright but I'm not that crazy about them.
6:55 am
capone
yea, AC/DC is awesome, never changed the straight forward rock your balls off style of r&r
6:56 am
faeriekae
oh yeah. Shook me all night long......
6:57 am
Jera
Okay, I am doing the view/text size/largest thing with no results... any suggestions??
6:57 am
faeriekae
ummmm good luck!!
6:59 am
capone
yea, 13 years ago, during the "Bed of Roses" era was a real down turn for them (jovi). when they reformed in the late 90's and released "these days", the music took a more mature turn. good or bad i could relate to a lot of what was on the recent albums, thats why they've always been one of my fave hard rock bands.
7:00 am
Jera
Ooh... co5/16 is one of my favorite aussie words
7:00 am

Go6/24: the vegetable that makes you cry must leave.

7:06 am
Jera
Good, I hate it when I look for words that aren't there... best thing about a list (which I haven;t looked at yet!)...
7:07 am
sprite
For some reason I cannot stop looking for orchard.
7:07 am
faeriekae
Mr P - Yes I've seen AC/DC several times. They are unbelievable. I see them nearly everytime they come to our area.
7:07 am
Jera

7:09 am
Jera
Oooh, Greek god blood!
7:10 am

7:10 am
katieW
Jera - just had a look, Ron is chuffed (really pleased)to be made a prefect and his brothers are taking the mickey (making fun of him)
7:11 am
Jera
So I figured it out right, Katie? Yea! It's so cool, how it's the same language, but such different terms...
7:11 am
katieW
I'd never thought about it before but you are so right.
7:12 am
mrpresident
Yeah, he is stoked!!
7:12 am
Jera
Only one r or we'd have razor... is that darn z used at all today?
7:13 am
cliffopa

7:13 am
Jera

7:13 am
Jera
Is it used in any words, cliffopa?
7:13 am
katieW

7:14 am
faeriekae

7:15 am
katieW
Jera the sad truth is it's only fun if you win!! But at least I get to see Mum & Dad and fuggles is coming for his first trip in the car.
7:16 am
Jera
I can't imagine finishing without a list, either lickety or BJ's. Sometimes BJ's doesn't happen, & lickety is invaluable
7:16 am
bex777
only 1 words uses the z
7:16 am
Jera
Thanks for the progress report... (re z's)
7:16 am
Jera
Thanks, bex!

8:07 am
cliffopa
okay - my most unfavorite word in this puzzle is definitely the yl word (4/7) maybe the young chemical engineer-to-be can appreciate the definition:
A form of matter hypothesized by proponents of the big bang theory to have existed before the formation of the chemical elements.

8:10 am
Jera
We've had a few big ones recently, as well, I remember cuz I tried to do one & ran out of time with 20 to go... the other I didn't start as I was very busy that day...
8:10 am
axe
are you guys really from Berlin?
8:10 am
Sherylr1961
yes that's me but I must be slipping because I haven't heard a thing about a new book from him, how was it
8:10 am
MikeyInBerlin
excuse me, Kate? where on earth is *that* coming from, all of a sudden??? :-/ Jera happens to be a friend of mine, and isn't acting any differently than most of my friends do, for heaven's sake.....now, why would i hate you, for crying out loud? i'm not a hateful person, and i don't hate anyone.....that's an awfully strange thing to say? :-/ i don't even know you, having only just met you on here now! :-/ *shrugs*
8:10 am
bex777
cliffopia were u asking for a clue for the yl orjust saying it was wierd?
8:10 am
scribble
thx cliffopa. but i dont appreciate that word, as i dont believe in the big bang theory.
8:10 am
FredAndKate
Well bye guys I have to get off. My sister Kara wants to get on.
8:11 am
MikeyInBerlin
Kate, it's really of no concern to me what your sister might look like.....i'm very happily attached, and gay, as it happens! :-)
8:11 am
scribble
bye, Kate!
8:11 am
Jera
(apropo of nothing)
You know what I'm gonna suggest to Dr. God for this site? An ignore function in the chat. You know where you can choose to not read the chat of annoying people? That would be nice.
8:12 am
bex777
bye kate
lol mikey! :)
8:12 am
MikeyInBerlin
what 'guys', axe? yes, that's where i'm from.....why question that; is it so strange? we all have to be somewhere in the word, don't we? :-P
8:12 am
cliffopa
bex - i've got the yl word.
sheryl, the book was pretty good. a fairly quick read. plenty of gore (which i don't really get into) but it was an interesting concept. subject of the book is cell phones and a disaster that happens one day to everyone making or receiving a call on a cell phone.
8:12 am
FredAndKate
Hi Mikey its Kara my sister Kate told me that you were mean! But from your piture you look sexy!
8:13 am
scribble
what about the hide log button? and please let me know if im ever annoying...
8:13 am
MikeyInBerlin
to borrow from Yiddish vernacular, Bex.....at this point i feel like rolling my eyes skyward, smacking my head, and exclaiming 'oy vey iz mir'.....you know? :-P
8:13 am
Jera
Oh I wouldn't want to hide the whole chat. Just might come in handy sometimes to ignore a troll.
8:14 am
Sherylr1961
sounds like King, I am going to go out and buy it this afternoon
8:14 am
bex777
im sorry mikey i didnt understand a word of that!! :)

cliffopa--im reading that book now. i dont know if i like it as much as his previous books, though.
8:14 am
MikeyInBerlin
'mean', Kara? that's a new one :-/ read the chat log here for yourself.....nothing mean in anything i said, but i suppose a 10 year old mind could read anything into it :-/ *sigh*
8:15 am
bex777
mikey's not mean!
8:15 am
Jera
My daughter is 10... I know how ten year olds act.
8:15 am
cliffopa
jera - you have a great idea there. it gets a bit uncomfortable at times and i often hide the log when women/girls start hitting on Mikey. it's embarassing.
8:15 am
MikeyInBerlin
ah, yes Jera; 'troll'.....i'm beginning to think that's what we have in here now, possibly.....ah well; nose into the grid, which is what i came here for anyhow! :-P
8:15 am
Jera
But anyway, back to the game... how many letters in that yl word, please?
8:15 am
MikeyInBerlin
no kidding i'm not, Bex.....but that *is* giving Heinrich and i a good chuckle here! ;-)
8:16 am
cliffopa

8:16 am
Jera
Never mind, i found it monkey-typing, LOL
8:16 am
FredAndKate
No Mikey you are mixed up. My sister Kate is going to eat. But I already ate. I'm 17.
8:16 am
MikeyInBerlin
ja; tell me about it, cliffopa.....i might soon be doing the same thing; but.....you have to admire their persistance, hitting on a gay man, hmm? ;-)
8:17 am
MikeyInBerlin
lol; i'm not mixed up in the least, Kara/Kate or whoever you are.....but i dare say someone else probably is! :-/
8:17 am
FredAndKate
Mikey were you talking to me or someone else.
8:17 am
cliffopa
mikey - lol. i guess maybe some females take a while to learn.

8:25 am
NowherePixie
Yeh beware, they might come back with even bigger capital letters next time... fear for your life Mikey!
8:25 am

I like singing tenor... often the parts are more interesting than soprano... I like to jump around and confuse people, especially when i go to church...
8:26 am
scribble
hey hurshy!!
8:26 am
FredAndKate
Hurshy remember me! We were good friends!
8:26 am

8:27 am
hurshy
hi scribble!
8:27 am
FredAndKate
lianakate you are mean!
8:27 am
Jera
The Sprite is taking voice lessons... she finds all the parts fascinating... I'm just happy she's getting a bucket... she loves to sing & has a lovely voice, but is very much the individual, if you know what I mean...
8:27 am
FredAndKate
No hurshy I was talking to Mikey
8:28 am

WOW YOU GIRLS NEED TO GET OVER YOURSELVES!!!!
8:28 am

8:28 am

8:28 am
Jera
We got out a church songbook (I have 5) & I showed her how to read all the parts. I like to encourage her musical talents.
8:28 am
cliffopa
i guess acting like an adult = mean.
8:28 am
lianakate
I think this Kate person..*really a child?* needs a good arse whoopin..or parents that supervise her online involvement better..
8:29 am
FredAndKate
I did well I didn't mean too. you are not selfish like Mikey!
8:29 am
scribble
LOL lianakate!
8:29 am
MikeyInBerlin
lianakate, is her 'child' status really in question here? :-P
8:29 am
Jera
Has anyone e-mailed Dr. God yet?
8:29 am
NowherePixie
what exactly did Mikey do ayway?
8:29 am
shorty
amen lianakate a good arse whippin would do them good
8:29 am
hurshy

8:30 am

ja, really cliffopa.....acting like an adult must equate being 'mean', to a child, i'm sure :-/
8:30 am
scribble
why *them* shorty?
8:30 am
FredAndKate
lianakate my parents do not believe in spanking for your info and you are a LOSER
8:31 am

8:31 am
lianakate
Well, enough for me this AM. Am off to play wordscape or literati..my two online faves..Off line I am a Scrabble dork..Later, all..and good luck.
8:31 am
MikeyInBerlin
lianakate? you play Literati???
8:31 am
hurshy
scribble - i think shorty was just employing the common practice of saying "them" when the gender is unknown, not implying that multiple folks need a whipping :)
8:31 am
scribble
jera--how do you find the tenor parts in a songbook?
8:31 am
Jera
So does anyone have special plans for Earth Day? I'm taking my Girl Scouts to an event at a local state park, even though it's raining
8:31 am
MikeyInBerlin
wow; that's my very favourite online game!!! :-)
8:32 am
Jera
Scribble, it's the top notes on the bottom staff. Soprano & alto over the words, tenor & bass under the words.
8:32 am
FredAndKate
hurshy lianakate said I need a spanking but I don't do I?
8:32 am
lianakate
Mikey..yep! Havent played in awhile, have been too busy. I do love it though.
