There is one Pa5 that only uses letters in the upper left corner. That was the last I found.

4:59 am

Probably for the same reason people that leave us aren't Pa7.

7:56 am
shorty

whos that jacula?
7:56 am
bluephlox

that's fun. it's nice having someone doing this in the same room even if you're not doing it together. you can complain about phantom words- which we do often.
7:57 am

7:57 am
Jacula

Mt partner's also been known to nip onto a computer when he gets back to the depot and post on the log asking me why I'm Babbling and not making his dinner! LOL.
7:57 am

because babbling is more fun:)
7:57 am

8:10 am

Thanks for the help Jacula. I think that I am missing the "Polynesian wraparound skirt".

Now I just have to work out what that is!
8:10 am

OK, around noon
8:11 am

Music I had one the cinnamon rolls earlier I'm have roast for lunch with Rump. Sounds delicious.
8:12 am

recrap should be a word. It is recrap every time we have to type re words<G> Feeling like a whiner today.
8:18 am
faeriekae

You'll get through the re's Music you always do. Me on the other hand.....not so sure???
8:18 am
musicmom

let me go first Faerie and then I can zip you through them.
8:18 am
faeriekae

I just finished the c's does that count for anything? LOL
8:19 am
musicmom

so far what I am seeing is that they are all common babble words and not too difficult. I make it harder when I look for the really strange ones and miss the normal ones.
8:19 am
Uneaixoise

of course! congrats on the c's!
8:20 am
faeriekae

thans Une - love the icon :)
8:20 am
Uludaas

*Crys*!

I finally got it! No wonder I could not work it out. I thought the Polynesian wraparound skirt ended in the letter "U", but it has another spelling!

Thanks again for the help Jacula, I can now go get some sleep!
8:20 am
Uneaixoise

:-D
8:20 am
musicmom

absolutely - that means you will have clues for me when I get there. I'm trying a new method today. I'm working back ward through the alphabet but without the list first. When I find all the words I can with any one letter then I go to the list.
8:21 am
faeriekae

Uludaas are you finished?
8:21 am
musicmom

Wonderful Uludaas!!! Does this mean you are finished?
8:21 am
Uneaixoise

that's my "method" too, MM :-)
8:22 am
rumplestiltskin

I changed my icon because if you eat enough of these you will have to undo your zipper.
8:22 am
Jera

Done with the R's (please don't hit me!)!
8:23 am
Uludaas

Yes I am finished!

I am improving slowly I can almost get half the words without looking at lickeysplits now.
8:23 am
faeriekae

Rump - I'll have another one please and thank you. Looks soooooooo gooooood.....
8:23 am

Jera what in the world is the re5/10 between the get up again 6/18 and the cut again 6/21?
8:31 am
Jera

8:31 am
Uneaixoise

is it the "look at again"?
8:32 am
Jera

Maybe cuz I don't get that hint...
8:32 am
Uneaixoise

that was for the re5/10 :)
8:33 am
Jera

It's either the last pa4/5 or the second to last one... I have the tope of head one

8:37 am
Jera

Ye gods, I'm an idiot, had the plural but not the single! Thanks, Unea!!
8:38 am
Llysse

There's also what you do to an apple or potato, another word for peel. Sorry I never know which one is being asked for!!! :(

2:21 pm

hmm; at least he wasn't shirtless in a skirt.....or was he?
2:21 pm
boreetos

movieman, i concur, Clerk 2 especially. I'm something of a Kevin Smith fan(atic). Pirates 2 looks really promising, and I hope the best for Superman Returns... Sin City 2 cannot suck folling the sheer unadulterated awesomeness of the first one. And being a fan of Lay3r Cak3, I have good feelings about the new Bond.

2:38 pm
boreetos

It's a board game, and it's made by Journeyman Press.
It's cool, veryone starts out at Town Square and on your turn you flip over a map card and lay it down to add to the board, so its different everytime and you never know what the city is going to look like. Plus you might be going somewhere and someone else puts a dead-end on the end of your road. The first one to the helicopter wins. :)
2:39 pm

Boreetos - I can rember watching some of the Elm Street movies when I was younger too, (about 12 years old I think).....

I couldn't sleep on my own for at least a week afterwards.....

It's pretty reasonable around here usually, but we bought four lots and the water company is treating it like a subdivision of which we are the developers as opposed to being the sole owners of a 30 acre tract of property. So we can't just run a line. We have to do the whole main. The engineer that gave us the estimate was my husband's uncle. I shudder to think what it would be without a family discount!

Thanks for ryinhg to meet my needs, Stid.

Now, Spanish is not one of my languages--I thought the masc. sing pronoun was as in "* *Cid", and there isn't an "L" in the grid. Is there some other way of suggesting the last letter, please?

Now, thanks to Haz I know the name of an actress I've never heard of before (any relation to Diana Reese? Does she spell it "Rhyse" perhaps, or "Rise" like the opera singerof my day?) and also the name of a Malayan dagger, which I'm sure will come in useful around the house, much as the iron used to do.

Hi Jac, how are you today?: Like the others I'm quite wowed by your icon. There must be a reason you chose it, but perhaps it's best not to know. I've been strugglung with strange words for three hours and I'm only halfvway through, so I'm off for a while to cook a good dinner for my very own hero.

Hi again, Faerie. Was it you I saw in the log a while ago saying your place is haunted? If so, there's probably nothing to fear. My place is full of animals 'gone before', or used to be. It's been quiet lately, though.

Faerie - 2nd ta4/4:
1. The weight of a container or wrapper that is deducted from the gross weight to obtain net weight.
2. A deduction from gross weight made to allow for the weight of a container.
3. Chemistry. A counterbalance, especially an empty vessel used to counterbalance the weight of a similar container.

All the words sound like black sticky stuff on the roads or on flat roofs.

For the or4 word - if you're not a game player and have not read Lord of The Rings then try this: Think of a killer whale, or**. Then change the last letter to a curly consonant to make a plural.
7:55 pm

Both TR7s are the plurals of the TR6s.
7:58 pm

tr4/4 - a constant Babble word. 'Tax on wares in transit'.

Think of a lovely gift or act, a tr***, and then take out the 2nd vowel.

8:24 pm
mich_pdx

thx Jacula
8:24 pm
Jacula

Not sure if anyone wants (or is even left in here) to get advice on Babbling now. However, the best method I have found is to find words in no particular order, except for the patterns they make and lead on to, and also to go away and do other things when you hit a wall.

I (or more often my Other Half, Paul, who gets up before me) handwrites the grid. So, most of it is done on paper, stream of consciousness etc., with no lists and no clues.
8:25 pm
inge

Jacula, I was referring to my 8:15 post, the pa 6 I need is above the talking bird and after the apple skinning gadget.
8:25 pm
featherbee

hi all, ap5,12? i have one, like you are ap*** to do something (lol, i guess that's how you'd use it!)
8:26 pm
Jacula

Inge - pa4/5 - young fish (usually a salmon) under 2 years' of age. Otherwise, think of one of Henry VIII's Wives, one of the Catherines.
8:26 pm
abe79

that's great advice, jacula. i do the stream of consciousness for the first hour when i'm at work. it gets a lot of words and you can then fill in the blanks
8:28 pm
inge

Sorry jacula I have the fish, I need the lpa 6/21 rigth above it.
8:29 pm
Jacula

Abe - did you get the es word yet? If not, think e+someone whose surname begins with a 'Mac' or a 'Mc'.
8:30 pm
Jacula

Inge - pa6/21 above the fish is the plural potato/fruit peeler.
8:30 pm
abe79

still looking jacula. thanks for your patience/ clues at this hour!
8:31 pm
Jacula

Abe - I'm a night owl, hence my 'nick'. No probs.
8:32 pm
inge

I deserve the fish, but I dont like fish. So here I am finished at last, at last at last at last ................
8:32 pm
Jacula

Abe - for the es word - think of a nation that celebrates Hogmanay with Haggis and whisky etc.
8:33 pm
Jacula

First time I've done this today, but Inge derserves it...

featherbee -- if you drop the h from your name... and the insect and the first letter... then plural...
8:58 pm
Jacula

Ah, yes, Faerie. I was going to say that the adice you have been given about telling them whose home it is now is valuable. It often works, should you want to get them to leave. However, your lady is something I'd like to talk about in more depth in private... Are you on MSN Messenger?
