12:06 am
stidmama

ahhh,, knuts!
12:06 am
wassup

she's probably waiting for a phone call. i am too, but keeping busy
12:06 am
stidmama

12:06 am
jaianniah

o man, i slept thru the flip!!!
12:06 am
stidmama

well, I will keep my fingers crossed that all goes well.
12:07 am
wassup

she's actually not due until june 1st, but she has severe preeclampsia and has been on bedrest for 6 weeks. her blood pressure was way up, 190 ish so she was admitted a few hours ago. they'll induce if they cant get it down
12:07 am
bendamalina

hah, i didn't notice that stid...funny
12:07 am
knutmeg

You and me, mum, we're a pair tonight. I was totally zoned out, listening to see if LIv is waking up or not
12:07 am
stidmama

jaianniah! I missed you today! feeling betterer?
12:08 am
stidmama

ooh. well, at least nowadays there are options and they should both be fine either way.
12:08 am
helenkeller

so i finally got the first flip & couldn't get on the site to enjoy it
12:08 am
wassup

yeah, and the baby
12:08 am
jaianniah

bout the same, stiddie, it's going to take some time- but it is so good to be home!
12:08 am
wassup

sorry. and the baby is at 36 weeks now
12:08 am
LeslieAnn

i was having trouble too, helen
12:09 am
stidmama

i am so glad you're home! do you have someone at home to help you (i hope so)
12:09 am
helenkeller

wass - just was reading back - hope she does ok
12:09 am
stidmama

36 weeks isn't too bad. early, but not scarily so.
12:09 am
jaianniah

my hubbie until sunday- then I am on my own
12:09 am
helenkeller

leslie!!!! - did you get 'initialization error' messages?
12:10 am
stidmama

well, we'll have to get you better then! *sending healing vibes via e-space*
12:10 am
wassup

no, her 1st was 31 weeks. that was scary. she was only 3 lbs. had to stay in the nicu for 25 days. not fun
12:10 am
kimberblue

i was induced at 36 weeks with my second child for the same thing
12:10 am
jaianniah

t y ty ty!!!!
12:10 am
LeslieAnn

i kept getting nothing on the screen and it just said "error"
12:10 am
wassup

how did that go kimber?
12:11 am
kimberblue

everything was perfect 7.4 lbs even
12:11 am
stidmama

do you take comfrey or any of the other "mending" herbs -- or would they interfere with the meds you are on?
12:11 am
helenkeller

well, i'm glad we're here now :)
12:11 am
stidmama

Matthew was in nicu for 14 days, but had the opposite problem -- born at 10 months and WAY too big for me!
12:11 am
kimberblue

being induced is horrible though
12:11 am
kimberblue

just in that the contractions hit you fast and furious
12:12 am
harpjane

sometimes the small ones are harder
12:12 am
knutmeg

cool, both me and my baby's names (the shortened versions) can be found in todays grid
12:12 am
LeslieAnn

10 months?? why so long?
12:12 am
stidmama

I hated it -- they did that for me with Matthew but didn't tell me... that was really mean of them.
12:12 am
harpjane

puzzles, I mean. I've never been in labor!
12:12 am
LeslieAnn

lol jane
12:12 am
stidmama

My midwife didn't believe me when I told her I was probably pregnant in February, and assumed I was due in December...
12:13 am
wassup

my son was born 9lbs 3 oz and he was at 38 weeks. the drs said i would have had a 10 pounder if he went 2 more weeks
12:13 am
wassup

he's still huge. looks 5, but he's 4
12:14 am
kimberblue

i had a 9.12 pounder at 40 weeks - one day
12:14 am
stidmama

Matthew was 9.5 pounds. Grant (and I am absolutely certain when he was conceived LOL) was born at exactly 9 months and weighed 8.5
12:14 am
kimberblue

if they can't get her blood pressure down- it really is best for the baby to be born
12:14 am
wassup

yikes. i love big babies though
12:14 am
stidmama

oooh kimberblue. that is too much!
12:14 am
kimberblue

the hard part is they will not let you out of bed. period. due to your blood pressure
12:15 am
wassup

she just went through this last june. her 1st is only 10 months old. let's just say..."oops".
12:15 am
stidmama

I am glad I never had to deal with that.
12:15 am
kimberblue

does she have support?
12:15 am
wassup

me too
12:15 am
kimberblue

oh my!
12:16 am
stidmama

that's going to be like twins only without the advantage of only one birthday party to plan!
12:16 am
wassup

yeah, her whole family is here. my mom, my aunt, her mother in law and I are switching off days with the baby (Molly).
12:16 am
wassup

mine are 13 months apart and they're still mistaken for twins all the time
12:17 am
LeslieAnn

my sister and i were 22 months apart and have always been mistaken for twins (i'm older, she's taller)
12:17 am
kimberblue

how was her first birth? hopefully being through it once will help-
12:17 am
stidmama

my boys were 26 months apart and mistaken for twins from the time Grant was one until a couple years ago! Matthew didn't grow very fast the first 8 years.
12:17 am
stidmama

Grant is really following the tall side of the family's growth curve... Matthew follows mine.
12:17 am
kimberblue

i love births! I am a doula though so i have to love them!
12:18 am
wassup

it was fast. only took about 3 hours from the time her water broke. she was hard to get into labor though. it took a few days of pitocin
12:18 am
wassup

i love it too. some people get all freaked out when they hear birth stories. it's a total miracle! i love hearing other people's stories and sharing my own
12:18 am
LeslieAnn

that's neat kimber. i don't have any plans for kids soon but i think i would like to use one if that ever comes to be
12:18 am
stidmama

I wish I'd had a doula... couldn't afford one at the time. We made do.
12:18 am
kimberblue

i'm glad she had a dr. that was patient instead of going straight for a c-section
12:19 am
wassup

leslie, i didn't know we were the same age!
12:19 am
kimberblue

i would have been your doula in return for clues :)
12:19 am
stidmama

i wonder if Lickety's here but afraid to step in because we're all talking about babies and stuff?
12:20 am
LeslieAnn

lol might hold you to that
12:20 am
wassup

she was actually to the point of wanting a c-section, but she woke up the morning they were going to do it and took a shower to prepare for surgery. her water broke in the shower and the contractions came on FAST
12:20 am
LeslieAnn

wassup, you sound pretty established though! husband, kids... i'm still working on the getting married part
12:21 am
stidmama

i am fortunately (i hope) too old now to have kids. I had really bad post-partum depression -- on top of all my other problems. NOT a good situation. I missed so much of their first few years.
12:21 am
wassup

stid, all i have to do is say placenta to my husband and he'll stop eating. :) I love the POWER!
12:21 am
kimberblue

i hope she can avoid it this time- the recovery with a 10 month and a new born would not be super fun!
12:21 am
wassup

leslie, i got married at 19. i got a head start... i'm the weirdo
12:21 am
kimberblue

i'm only chatting so much becasue I can't find any words- lol!
12:22 am
wassup

i found one
12:22 am
kimberblue

i hvae 8!
12:22 am
mab

I'll change the subject! Dr. G, the icons in the chat log are too too small. I know you have to juggle a zillion elements to make everything fit, but the icons!!!! Such a huge babble element!
12:22 am
mab

Look at me. I'm a mere color.
12:22 am
stidmama

don't rush it, LeslieAnn -- there are advantages both ways (young mother, older mother), but take your time and find the right person. My Tom is my very best friend and so we have weathered some tough times.
12:23 am
LeslieAnn

i am still getting used to the new format, i think that's why the word finding is so slow (yeah... THAT'S it...)
12:23 am
stidmama

mab, you're silly. but very pretty, nonetheless.
12:23 am
wassup

i just love that i can see the chat log without scrolling
12:24 am
LeslieAnn

oh, i actually am getting married (in october) but we both kind of shutter at the thought of having kids now. maybe in 5 years or so, but not soon
12:24 am
stidmama

I feel the same, wassup.
12:25 am
stidmama

good for you LeslieAnn! yes, get married, enjoy that part of your life, then have kids. but think before you buy lots of expensive furniture and "toys" that kids are tough on them... ;-)
12:25 am
wassup

leslie, i didn't plan it. we got married with the idea that we'd wait a few years. 5 months later, i proved the pill wrong... :) It all worked out great and I wouldn't change a thing now. But...enjoy being a couple first, a baby is a HUGE marriage tester...
12:25 am
mab

Don't close the shudders, Leslie Ann === How exciting! Congratulations! ;D
12:25 am
knutmeg

I actually felt the same way, LeslieAnn, when I got married. Oddly, I ended up moving the time table up, but I still think 5 years without kids sounds good for a marriage
12:25 am
helenkeller

12:26 am
LeslieAnn

haha thanks for the great clue, helen!
12:26 am
stidmama

I think, LeslieAnn, that you will both know when the time is right and don't think you have to hold yourselves to any particular time table (yours or anyone else's)
12:26 am
harpjane

bed time. Tonight is our last night on the "temporary" setup we started using over a year ago. The new mattress set arrives tomorrow. (Of course, it might not actually fit up the stairs....)

Poor Helen.
12:26 am

12:28 am
stidmama

oops! helen I almost did it, too!
12:29 am
WelaV1927

whats the word count?
12:29 am
LeslieAnn

lol, speaking of other people's timetables, i kid you not, when we told my dad we were engaged he was very excited and happy etc. and in the SAME conversation mentioned grandkids *facepalm*
12:29 am
helenkeller

welll stid ---- i'm waiting ......
12:29 am
mab

It's so easy to do. Maybe by the time we're all in the Babbler Home together we will have learned.

12:29 am
stidmama

waiting?? helen did I miss something? it's getting awfully late for me....
12:30 am
helenkeller

waiting -- for you to return the favor - you said you 'almost' did it
12:30 am
stidmama

oh, wait around, it'll happen sooner or later! :-)
12:30 am

i tried that, it doesn't work, stid ;)
12:31 am

no, but the anagram did!

12:33 am
mab

What about 'gell'? As in "Gells, do sit up straight'
12:33 am
LeslieAnn

is anyone having trouble loading the word list? every time i refresh/view someone's profile etc. when i come back my list is gone
12:34 am
mab

I'm afraid you;re incorrigible, helen.
12:34 am
helenkeller

it is slow to load up
12:35 am
stidmama

that's cause all us babbleholics are trying to see what the grid is like today! so far, I don't think it's very friendly....

you're right mab - i should not chat - or only chat and no grid -one or the other - i think multitasking is just a fancy way of saying doing two things at once, neither well

if there were a submit button as before, we wouldn't have the problem of words accidentally being typed into the log.
1:30 am
Boysaway

hurshy did her best to persuade Dr G of that but he disagreed
1:32 am
trishtrash

I wonder if he'd consider it a worthwhile use of his time to arrange a <bleep> anytime a word from the day's grid is used? Probably too time consuming for too little reason. And then you'd have words like 'them' and 'caulliflower' that people use every day and the conversation would get confusing ;)
1:33 am
Boysaway

I suppose we'll get used to it in time
1:34 am
cybernan

I think that contrary to what he says in his profile (aim to please) the good doc does precisely what he likes and doesn't really care what we think --- I certainly haven't seen any evidence of anything being done about any of our suggestions.
1:34 am
trishtrash

Cybernan ... to be fair, I think we've only had a couple of days to get used to the 'new'. It makes sense for Dr_G to let the dust settle before deciding if/what changes to make.
1:36 am
cybernan

Don't get me wrong -- there are some nice new features on this site, but also some of unnecessary ones and some downright annoying ones.
1:37 am

Anyway, my poor old eyes can only stand these bright colours and small type for so long, and the limit has been reached. See you tomorrow :)

I agree, Cybernan, this is a mixed bag o' change, for sure.

3:40 am
Babbler

morning, Jera : )
3:44 am

what is the new sit'es URL, please?
3:44 am
Jera

That s is in a very inconvenient spot..

Yeah, me too.

Haz1558

Taking a break and will return.
3:48 am
Jera

Later, Haz!
4:18 am
ExWren

My first thought was, thank goodness for a small grid, but after scrolling back to read the chat, it seems as if it's not so clever?
4:18 am
Haz1558

Good morning ex-Wren - it's not an easy one today!
4:19 am
ExWren

I JUST managed to finish yesterday, well past my bedtime
4:20 am
Haz1558

Did you enjoythe fireworks?
4:20 am
ExWren

I see you are in 'the other' site this morning
4:21 am
ExWren

I'm old fashioned Haz, I'm working on the 'old' site, you can't teach an old dog new tricks!!
4:21 am
Jera

Greetings, Ex-Wren! Nasty little grid today...
4:22 am
Haz1558

Yes, I decided to embrace the change. The chat log box being above the chat means you can keep an eye on who has beaten you to giving a cl4/6 and the scroll features are good on the word list.
4:23 am
Jera

How can you tell if someone is in the old site?
4:24 am
ExWren

Morning Jera, still trying to decide whether to play, I expect I will though.
My screen isn't wide enough to accommodate the new site, I find it annoying to keep moving from side to side
4:24 am
Jera

Yes, that would indeed be annoying
4:24 am
Haz1558

The only way is by looking at 'Who's online' and if they are not there, but are appearing in the chat log, then they are in the old site.
4:24 am
Babbler

ex-wren, try cntrl - (minus) to make the screen smaller. (although that means you might be peering at the screen...)
4:25 am
Jera

Ahhh... I haven't plaued with all the bells & whistles yet
4:25 am
ExWren

Your icon doen't show Jera, just a plain white box, with a small red cross in the corner
4:25 am
Jera

Yes, if you are on the old site, icons that are updated at the new site will not appear
4:25 am
Jera

One of the reasons I crossed over!
4:26 am
Babbler

if you want your icons to show on the 'normal' and the beta sites, you have to update both. : /
4:27 am
Jera

I can't believe lu4/8 is valid...
4:29 am
Haz1558

It does kind of go against the grain, doesn't it?
4:30 am
Haz1558

But the three letters of the singular version appear quite a lot in different words today
4:31 am
Jera

I'm slowly & painfully finding that out Haz...
4:36 am
Jera

I have 4 like that... how many have you found, Haz?
4:37 am
Haz1558

So far 6 but am still working through.
4:37 am
Jera

I have e's & i's so far (2 of each)... can you point me to the other set? I can't make al work
4:38 am
Haz1558

co8/65 and co9/84
4:38 am
Jera

That's it! Thanks.. nice ones
4:39 am
Haz1558

You're welcome - if I find any more I'll sing out.
4:39 am
Jera

That's my 8's & 9's at least...
4:39 am
Jera

Nice for all thes vowels to be useful... & my latin is coming in handy today!
4:41 am
Haz1558

You can't knock a bit of latin!
4:42 am
Jera

Ooh, I remembered the al5/14 from another grid! I love it whn I do that!
4:44 am
Haz1558

I know what you mean. It gives a great feeling of satisfaction to spot them.
4:45 am
Jera

It means I'm actually like, you know, LEARNING! Always a thrill for me. My neurologist highly approves of this game for me!
4:45 am
Haz1558

Wouldn't it be fun if babble could be on prescription?
4:47 am
Haz1558

Then, when people compained, you could just say 'Following doctor's orders!'
4:49 am
Babbler

Jera, I'm sure my ability to concentrate has improved dramatically since I started playing Babble and Sudoku. Oh, and then there's that there learning too... : )
4:54 am
Haz1558

Well, I've finished with due assistance from Lickety's list and morewords. I'd better do some housework now even if it is not as helpful to the brain cells! Bye all and see you later.
4:54 am
Babbler

laters, Haz : )
4:55 am
Jera

Or if the house didn't get clean... but the doctor TOLD me to play Babble, LOL
4:55 am
Jera

Bye, Haz..
4:56 am
Jera

Sorry, I wandered off to do some Cinco de May research...
4:57 am
Jera

Well, I've made it to halfway, think I'll get a bit more sleep before the household needs to awaken... later!

5:17 am
Jacula

Good morning! Another lovely, sunny day. Well, I've got to 45 words and now my Latin's failing me.
5:19 am
Jacula

Incidentally, we'll have to give 'hints', not cl4/6's today to avoid typing a word in the log.;)
5:19 am
amandacath

Hi Jac - you're doing better than me. I'm at 28 and have already started making up words...
5:19 am
lola100

lol! Hi Jacs : )
5:20 am
Jacula

Amanda - making up words is often the best way to find them! It worked for me with 'aithchbone' yesterday!
5:21 am
Jacula

*'aitchbone'.
5:23 am
lola100

Jacs, do you not call a cut of beef aitchbone out here? It's a word I've known since I was a child. 'Course, it still took me awhile to find it, lol!
5:23 am
amandacath

How true, how true - that was one where I shrieked out loud "you've got to be kidding"
5:23 am
Jacula

Possibly, Lola, but I've only heard of a 'T-bone'.
5:24 am
Jacula

'Brrr' made me shriek a bit, too, Amanda.
5:25 am
licketySplitAUS

Hey Everyone, What a lovely night for some word searching
5:25 am
lola100

Hey lickety! : )
5:25 am
licketySplitAUS

77 - lovely number!
5:25 am
Jacula

Lola - How's Anj these days? Does he still play? Never see him on the log now.
5:25 am
amandacath

that as well - although we've had it before, so it wasn't quite such a shock this time round. I still don't think it should be allowed, though.
5:26 am
Jacula

Hi, Lickety. That reminds me, I've got a word thing to mail you for your 'odd spot'.
5:26 am
licketySplitAUS

Hey lola! Nice to meet - sorry if we chatted before - My mind is like the kitchen sink, Full with Dishes!
5:26 am
licketySplitAUS

Cool Jacula - MrPresident manages those though - happy to pass it on - but best to use the email link.
5:27 am
licketySplitAUS

In fact she took one off today cause someone invalidated it
5:27 am
Jacula

Will do, Lickety.
5:27 am
Jacula

Invalidated it? What happened?
5:27 am
lola100

Jacs, he's fine. He's doing some serious job hunting at the moment, so not so much time for babble : (
5:27 am
licketySplitAUS

apparently there is more than one word with all vowels in right order. Fair Enough!
5:27 am
Jacula

Lola - Send him our best wishes.
5:28 am
Jacula

Lickety - Ah!
5:28 am
licketySplitAUS

I've got some stats!
5:28 am
licketySplitAUS

You know AtoZ list? Helpful for looking up words?
5:28 am
lola100

lickety, not sure if we've chatted but I use your lovely list every day! : )
5:28 am
lola100

Jacs, will do : )
5:29 am
Jacula

Lickety - Doing my usual thing and working without lists or stats at the mo. Will look in soon, though.
5:29 am
licketySplitAUS

And you know Enable list? Apparently the one used to in this game? Well there is about 1400 words in Enable that arn't in AtoZ and about 70 words in AtoZ not in Enable
5:30 am

cybernan
IUf you have the co9 drop the last letter
10:51 am
Haz1558

cybernan - do you have the lu4/8 - a strange plural word. The first three letters occur in several words today, including the co8 and 9,il7and 8, el 6 and 7.
10:51 am
Bugzy

OK - the il8 - double the tall letter, then add vi4/7 (used in science labs)
10:51 am

thanks, haz -- got all the 7's and the 8's

10:56 am

lo 7?
10:57 am

works for me! That's C7, i7 and G7. Which ones am I missing, please?

11:15 am

faeriekae -- not to worry -- we're all having the same problem. I find it helps to get in the habit of returning the curser to the add word box after every entry in the chat log --- hurshy asked Dr. G to return to the submit button for the chat log, but I think he refused. If that's the case we'll just have to put up with it, I guess.

Isn't that Lo latin for "in a place" ?

there are two lo c/24... they start the same. the first ends with a tall hump letter and two vowels, the second has upside down n, tall consonant and a vowel

well, Mary Ellen; you just enter as many words as you can see in the puzzle grid, typing them into the little box beneath the grid, where it says 'Add Word'.....the words have to be made up of letters sequentially adjoining each other, and you can't use the same letter twice.....there are help pages linked to on this page, additionally, and people are very helpful with clues/hints! :-)

Looks like Windows browsers like to tab to every single little thing instead of just field elements.

Mac browsers don't do that. So I guess it's just another reason to get a Mac. :)

The new layout is elegant ,all info visible, the sliding word list is excellent
3:19 pm
Dr_God

The compressed word list is intentional, and is how it has always looked on Mac browsers. But I could never figure out why it was so spaced out on Windows browsers. I finally solved the problem as you can see. ;)

Haz, I'm a dope. I actually have the Co9. No Co7 or Co8 though. Are they similar to the 9?
3:27 pm
72 Temple Owl

ok no clues requested yet - just a general question: is there more than one word using the prefix in?
3:27 pm
hurshy

cut off letter for 8, 7 is university
3:27 pm
Haz1558

The co8 just takes away the last letter of the 9. The co7 is a place of learning.

i was a VERY shy kid. and scared of everything. had to have my one year old sister go down the slide before me when i was five so i would know it was safe. fell on my bicycle once and didn't ride again for four years. :)

hey hursh: did you notice my cinco de mayo icon? a cat with sombrero!

icon shopping was a chore not fun with small icons : ( and to think i thought i would hate themes!
3:33 pm
hurshy

yes... but i had gotten over the shyness before, like in high school.
3:34 pm
Judi

Just a thought - would prefer larger icons and lose the blue background.
3:34 pm
72 Temple Owl

i am still painfully shy - it manifests differently in adults
3:34 pm
Angela

blue background???
3:34 pm
hurshy

and it is easier to be uninhibited online.
3:35 pm
tndaisy1960

true hurshy...if it weren't for online...I wouldnt have any friends
3:35 pm
72 Temple Owl

whoops judi - i don't care for white log background on white background
3:35 pm
hurshy

judi - it isn't the background that is why the icons are small - if they are bigger, it apparently makes the site run slower, so doc wanted them smaller. but he is going to make it so we can see them bigger in the profiles.
3:35 pm
Judi

Yes, Angela. Don't you see the blue wavey background behind the white puzzle page?
3:35 pm

mine is a graffiti of swiss cheese, in case anyone wants to know :)

I think the size of the windows depends on how many windows you have open at the time. The more you have open, the tinier they have to be to fit them all on the screen. I would try out the Command-tilde thing. It will let you easily flip back and forth between the two Babble pages.

Dr_God, if you're still around, I just had a fleeting thought...make the tile stats so that a bar moves from left to right as you get more words for a given letter, and changes color from red to green as you get more letters.

8:42 pm
Stevie-O

Student: Yeah. The new interface is really slick (although the chatbox input needs work)
8:42 pm

the only change that is not easy (for me) is the chat box -- too easy for me to forget to move my mouse and click on the "add word" box, and then I hit enter... and..... *blush*

Dr. G, I'm still perseverating on the chat box complaints. Could you have it default so that once you hit "enter" in chat it automatically "tabs" you into the add word box--so that every time someone wants to chat, they have to click into the chat box?

Here's an idea for a resource page: I could use a list of the number total/points total for each combination. For example a 6 letter word with a total tile count of 6 would be 18 points, with a total count of 7, it would be 21 points, etc.

I know I upset Dr_G one test day 1 by saying I think the new Babble page is cluttered, but I still haven't changed my opinion. I didn't mind switching between grid and stats., and I preferred the chatlog below the grid. I'm ambivalent about knowing who's online or the 'friends' thingey. The features I do like are the last word (and time) added, the bigger icons (where they work) in profiles, the scrollable word list and the fireworks. However, I do have a gripe about the new word list: I like to save mine and print it out at times when I need to use a stats list. Before you could just save the word list and points values. Now it also saves the ? part as 'look up word', therby using more ink!

As I was saying, my six-month old had run out of the garment we old moms from England called
"nappies", so I duly went to the drug store (which of course I called the chemists) and asked for nappies. There I was sent to the hardware store---imagine! where my request resulted in being shown a box of cute little glass bowls (fruit nappies, I believe they were) which, considering the use to which I wished to put them, were a serious joke. And that,dear listeners, is how I learned to know and to use the term "diaper".

There are two a 5/14's. You probably have the happy one, but not the one that's a lot like the movie with Charlton Heston and Sophia Loren. When a guy kills his sweetie's dad, it's bound to put a little stress on the relationship

10:38 pm

I think the chat is moving really fast, too... Dr_G if you're listening, would it be too hard to put an option for a slower refresh again?
10:38 pm
Jacula

Scatty - Yes, I put me and Paul in Worcs. BTW, a zip code is a postcode.

I'm losing it here. This site really does my head in! Any chance of being able to choose between the old style and the new style site, Dr_G?
10:40 pm

10:44 pm

li + same end as scottish lake
10:44 pm
misstearweus

li 4/6 sounds like what your dog does...li4/7 opposite of die
10:45 pm
Jacula

li4 - all what's already been said, although the true meaning is an archaic word for 'corpse'.
10:45 pm

the frogs and birds are chattering a lot right now -- the wind has died down for the moment, and I think they're making up for lost time!
10:45 pm

Got it, but boy, is that one obscure word...
10:45 pm
JeeWhiz

10:45 pm
LeslieAnn

si + first vowel + ***k an ice cream cone, drop the k. change last letter for other
10:45 pm
stidmama

si 6: add the third vowel, then a consonant (the consonants are next to each other in the alphabet)
10:46 pm
GreyWoulf

Sorry to get so quiet, but I am fighting off a headache -- I'll be lurking a bit but not very talkative
10:46 pm

I'm missing the lo 7/36, which simply must have the lo 4/6 as a prefix, yes?
10:46 pm
stidmama

oh Woulf! I hope you're not dehydrated -- it always happens to me in warm weather...
10:46 pm
Jacula

Oh! Just got a huge deja vu there with Wolfie's last post. No, not being sarky or anything. The sounds gone 'all funny' like it does when I've been somewhere before, too. How weird!
10:48 pm
stidmama

il 5: the il 5 and the odyssey
10:48 pm

Jewhiz - Unless Jamie has a posting partner or he cloned himself, he was up and awake for a very long time when he did the grid changeover. I guess he's taking some well-earned rest now, even if people like me don't appreciate all of the changes he's made. I can't fault him really, except for when I repeatedly asked for an edit/delete button and he sounded just like my son when he repled, 'You should proof read before you post!' Yea! Like most people do? On chatlogs?

However, I think with this new site that he's just been a bit too caring and listening and has tried to please everyone. (Not an easy thing to do!) The result (in my eyes) is that he's put every bit of his jewellery on at once.

I don't think you do enter a name on the tab, you are simply who you're logged in as

I want to creat a tab for the log, but can't figure out how to make it work, or how to name it. I click on control t, enter the url, I get the tab up, but it doesn't link to anything.
