helenkeller

libarebel

12:34 am

mab

I sort of love these little composition books.

12:34 am

libarebel

I mean worse than brussels sprouts, mab

12:35 am

mab

there is nothing worse than brussel's sprouts

12:35 am

helenkeller

me too - found memories :)

12:36 am

1j2u3d4y

liver ... liver is worse than brussels sprouts

12:36 am

helenkeller

i love brussel sprouts -s ome fried up bread crumbs on top - delish

12:36 am

mab

but liver isn't a veg

12:36 am

melonheadjujube

i like brussell sprouts - boiled with balsamic vinegar.

12:37 am

libarebel

I actually love brussels sprouts--cute tiny cabbages

12:37 am

Atalante

liver, kidney, sprouts and celery. all hell on earth!

12:37 am

Cat9x

I LOVE Brussell sprouts. Especially great with blue cheese dressing on them while hot , yum!

12:37 am

helenkeller

i love liver too!!

12:38 am

mab

i dislike all of those things and i'm allergic to celery too.

12:38 am

Atalante

yay mab!

12:38 am

1j2u3d4y

you're right, mab, liver is not a veg - missed that part of the discussion...sorry

12:39 am

melonheadjujube

liba, that's what my mom called them - baby cabbages.

12:39 am

Kadee

hey kiersten and john, are you still on?

12:39 am

libarebel

lol, melon!

12:39 am

mab

well, judy, I did say sprouts were worse than anything without specifying veg. my mistake really.

12:40 am

libarebel

will the real nasty veggie please stand up?

12:40 am

Atalante

luckily there's a nice veg in there to blaance all this talk of sprouts

12:41 am

melonheadjujube

mab the absolute worst veg is in this grid. even my kids, who eat eggplant willingly, won't get near this.hint: "OK, Ray, they're yucky, but you gotta ea them!"

12:41 am

Atalante

latest drawing thingy if anyone's interested: http://www.deviantart.com/view/3403676
7/

12:41 am

Kadee

if you put cheese on them it really enhances the flavor and makes them more paletable for those vegie haters

12:41 am

melonheadjujube

nice veg? hint? i'm stuck @ 50

12:43 am

mab

thanks atalante. does everyone mean that little old o4 veg?

helenkeller

12:49 am

helenkeller

12:53 am

melonheadjujube

ed 7/44 - a Tennessee Williams word for greed - minus Minnesota.

12:53 am

Atalante

hurshy used a word :):)

12:53 am

hurshy

see, i know SOMETHING would end in that!

12:53 am

hurshy

it doesn't count if it's part of a longer word!

12:53 am

Atalante

he he :)

12:54 am

libarebel

12:57 am

libarebel

12:57 am

mab

12:58 am

Atalante

thank you :D you should read the book - its beautiful. sad, but beautiful

12:58 am

mab

I love that site too

12:58 am

helenkeller

ok - willing to listen - actually i' ve been meaning to write to dr-g to see if we could have private chat - like many other game sites

12:58 am

hurshy

good golly every vowel but the right one so i can't get armada.

12:59 am

Atalante

and so do I - spend half my days there sometimes!

12:59 am

ilandrah

i keep seeing armada too hurshy

12:59 am

Atalante

perhaps the plyral should be armadi?

12:59 am

mab

I tried that word too

12:59 am

melonheadjujube

hurshy are you playing woulda-coulda-shoulda Babble? i want hematocrit.

12:59 am

hurshy

yeah, i thought it should be armadi

12:59 am

libarebel

good idea, helen-- could post email addys to certain people

12:59 am

hurshy

(alternatively, armadi could be a nice suit, if you have a cold)

1:00 am

melonheadjujube

lol hursh!

1:00 am

mab

(armani, hurshy)

1:00 am

ilandrah

maybe lickety should add most common phantom words to his stats list

1:00 am

mab

oh, i get it.

1:00 am

hurshy

a cold mab, a cold

1:00 am

mab

it's late

1:00 am

helenkeller

lib - if you want to reach me- i have e-mail at helenkeller@mychi.com - it is not one i check very often, but i will if i know to expect something - i take it because hotflashes have prevented me from getting solid nite's sleep for weeks now

1:01 am

hurshy

yes, it is

1:02 am

1j2u3d4y

Good night guys and gals getting crosseyed.

1:03 am

mab

night judy, sleep well.

1:03 am

libarebel

will email you helen-- I now take something effective and non-addictive for sleep, but doesn't help the hots...

1:04 am

helenkeller

i dont use it often at all - too much of a kick

1:04 am

hurshy

that's why i don't use my donkey often

1:05 am

helenkeller

but i am up every 1/2 hour to 45 minutes, either soaked through sweating or freezing - sigh

1:05 am

helenkeller

hursh - uh, graoannnnn

1:06 am

libarebel

that' good helen-- I did before they knew & go way hooked--it has a very short half lfe

1:06 am

libarebel

oh hurshy! :-D

1:06 am

hurshy

hey i thought that was a good one for 2 in the morning

1:07 am

libarebel

hurshy :OD

1:07 am

libarebel

either my fingers or keyboard are going south

1:08 am

hurshy

see helen, SOME people like me

1:08 am

melonheadjujube

i was hoping to get to afway - but i'm nodding out @ the keybroad

1:08 am

helenkeller

yeah lib - that's one of the tinghs that keep me from not overdoing it 1. i don't like the groggy feeling 2. it frightens me that it's physically addicitve, if it were nonlypsychologically additive, that might be easier to swallow - but i saw trainspotting (i'm sure it wouldn't be that bad, but still....)

1:08 am

mab

too bad tsoros/tsores isn't here. we have lots of that going around.

1:08 am

hurshy

30 left here!

1:08 am

melonheadjujube

i spell it tsouris

1:09 am

libarebel

well, I loved the blessed relief from back spasms

1:09 am

hurshy

ppl might like to be aware there is an oo6/27

1:10 am

libarebel

I took it for 15 years by prescription

1:10 am

helenkeller

omg - that's a really long time !!!

1:11 am

helenkeller

i've been taking vicodin for hip pain & it's really hard to quit that!

1:11 am

hurshy

now what on earth else can come from that o that can't come from any other o???

1:11 am

libarebel

yep, I decide to stop taking it and ended up in he hospital

1:12 am

libarebel

oh, dear, those docs are pushers! vicodin!

1:12 am

helenkeller

hey vicodin is good stuff- keep you pain free plus alert & happy, also lots of energy to do stuff

1:13 am

hurshy

brett farve was addicted to vicodin

1:13 am

melonheadjujube

why is this O different from all other Os?

1:13 am

hurshy

whoa, i AM sleepy, favre

1:13 am

libarebel

yes, helen, but they're for life...

1:13 am

hurshy

cause it's at the bottom, melon. check out my profile for the guide to boxes.

1:14 am

melonheadjujube

i'm a chronic pain person too. vicodin makes me functional. if you're taking it for a temporary condition, the doctor should give you a taper regimen.

1:14 am

libarebel

I don't mean to preach, helen, but I got screwed by that stuff

1:14 am

melonheadjujube

joke, hurshy. the 4 questions of passover: why is this night....

1:14 am

hurshy

i really thought we had oroid before, what am i mixing it up with?

1:14 am

helenkeller

it's hard to quit altogether - one of the reasons is that my tolerance is high now, so for ex. i currently have tendonitis in my elbow, when it get really bad 9usually from sleeping on it) & the celbrex doesn't cut it, i just go to the vicodin, because the other stuff - otc - just doesn't work anymore

1:15 am

hurshy

hehehe, oops :)

1:15 am

kristinc

hurshy...add a letter (if you didn't get it already)

1:15 am

hurshy

oh, see, i'm not jewish so i didn't know about passover questions

1:16 am

hurshy

i did kristin, hence the hehehe, oops

1:16 am

melonheadjujube

i'm stuck on the oo

1:16 am

kristinc

we posted at the same time...I'm still working on that other o too

1:16 am

libarebel

I have seroquel now for sleep, and only buffered aspirin for pain

1:16 am

hurshy

and why did i really think astic was a word?

1:17 am

melonheadjujube

ahhhh, i gotta watch out for those inside jokes. thanks to sitcoms, tho, everyone seems to know what a bar mitzvh is.

1:18 am

hurshy

it's ok melon i'm always making star trek references that people don't get

1:18 am

melonheadjujube

gottagotta go. holiday coming up. i need to clean cook, enroll for a night course, laundry, etc....i'll be off the air thurs, fri, sat.

1:18 am

libarebel

you'll I do understand, helen, just don't want anyone else to go thru what I did--you probably have a better doc

1:18 am

hurshy

i am starting to think these long words are going to be very very odd.

1:19 am

Atalante

either that or so obvious we cant see them

1:19 am

helenkeller

1:22 am

Dianne

I just started so I can't quite tell how it is - yet.

3:08 am

KittyVane

That's fantastic Atalante!
Did you colour it with colouring pencils?

3:09 am

FMitch

Atalante, another lovely piece, as soon as I looked at it I thought Watership Down and then scrolled down to see the lext.

3:10 am

Atalante

Hi folks. Sprite - the 'k' I have is a ka4. It sounds like a golfing helper or a container for tea.

5:22 am

Atalante

5:22 am

sprite

That was the recent one, Jac, thanks. One more :)

Hi Fmitch :)

5:41 am

FMitch

Hi sprite good to see you, did you find all the k's?

5:42 am

sprite

I did! First thing I did, wanted to have them out of the way.

5:43 am

FMitch

Thought of you when I saw them. Also since ExWren went on hols there has been a distinct lack of re's.

5:43 am

Serenity Gide

Isn’t sa5/16 one of the guys of LOST?

5:43 am

sprite

It should be possible to play puzzles you missed, like with sudoku. ExWren would have a blast :)

5:45 am

FMitch

Hmmm, Now there's a thought!!!

5:45 am

lynxxx

5:55 am

mrpresident

Haz1558

You're welcome FMItch.

5:57 am

FMitch

5:58 am

sprite

Isn't it usually spelled Au? Of is it an entirely different word?

5:58 am

Haz1558

No, I hadn't heard of it either. Au indicates daring, this is one indicating greed

5:59 am

CJ25

sprite - thats thats what I just pondered on - whilst trying to remember how it was spelt hehe

6:00 am

sprite

Hehe, close but no cigar. Every babble grid that teaches me a new word is a good one ;)

6:00 am

lynxxx

Mr P...the eMac we use at home is dying - and Lic's page is blank. and hen compounded with unresolved issue with no access to ChatBox, it is all v challenging but good for the brain. Off work today so couldn't print out Ls list to bring home.

6:01 am

CJ25

6:01 am

mrpresident

6:01 am

Haz1558

ac4/5 is what a stage-struck person does

6:02 am

CJ25

6:06 am

sprite

Why is 'itsy' not a word? I am positive it's used in songs. Like polkadot bikini.

6:06 am

Serenity Gide

and spider

6:07 am

Haz1558

Put a d in front of it sprite and it is acceptable.

6:07 am

Hi Eva & Aloyisius

6:27 am

Eva

hi serenity & alysius & sprite

6:27 am

CJ25

sprite - Ive just wroked out your clue - so slow today - bit lethargic :-(

6:27 am

Eva

is the ca7/8 a compound with the dessert thing?

6:29 am

cehess

ca 7/36 - secret group.. ca 8/50, the plural

6:30 am

FMitch

Hi Eva, unfortunately not. but it does end in the o4/4

6:30 am

Eva

thanks cehess-don't know yet what it is, but will go searching

6:30 am

Aloyisius

Today I vow to watch the cursor position; and I thought of a word for when you press enter and put a word on the chat log - how about BLAT? Well, I blatted three times in one day, and it made me shy ..

6:31 am

cehess

good luck ^^ I found it by accident

6:32 am

Eva

all I can think of is cabal(-:, or in camera

6:33 am

FMitch

LOL Aloy, I have been doing the same thing today and been so careful so far.... famous last words!

6:33 am

FMitch

Eva - take that 1st 3 letters of the last word you typed just now and find the o4/4 and add that to the end for the 7.

6:34 am

cehess

kind of sounds like camera, Eva

6:34 am

sprite

We all try not to and we all do on occasion. So I keep saying it's the setup of the site that is to blame, not us!

6:35 am

Aloyisius

BLAT... heehee

6:36 am

FMitch

or BLOCC - Babble Loss of Cursor Control

6:36 am

sprite

lol!

6:37 am

Jacula

Eva - the ca7/36 & 8/50 not only sound like a camera but also more like a type of Chevrolet.

6:37 am

Eva

not seeing it. th oa4 I have is the oven. is that the wrong one?

6:38 am

cehess

it's the or4

6:39 am

sprite

What you shoot with a bow, lose last letter, spell backwards: that is the O4.

6:39 am

Eva

6:40 am

sprite

I think BLATS should cover it: Bleassssssssse Adept The Site!

6:40 am

sprite

*adapt

6:40 am

Eva

Merp just walked across my chest twice and is sitting on the floor whining. Should I feed him or make him wait?

6:40 am

sprite

Feed him. NOW!

6:41 am

Eva

okay-if you can just help me out with the ar6/24 you can stop this poor, malnourished (15 lbs!) cat from pining away

6:42 am

sprite

Don't have that one yet. So take a break, stop mistreating your poor little kitty and come back fresh ;)

6:42 am

CJ25

Eva - they are bullying you

6:43 am

CJ25

I hate cats clawing

6:43 am

Eva

mep definitely is

6:43 am

cehess

that's one heck of a cat to have strolling across you

6:43 am

FMitch

go feed the belover MErp and by the time you get back we will have a clue for you. I have the word but haven't worked out a clue yet.

6:44 am

Eva

sometimes wake up thinking I'm having a heart attack or something because I can't breath ....and then see the furry face looming above me

6:44 am

sprite

So you are prepared, it is one of those stupidhead words again.

6:44 am

Don't you hear him purring Eva?
Jac and FMitch had the perfect clue together: "oh thats a good one Jac - yes, how a Japanese person would pronounce the word to rub on holy oil."

6:55 am

Eva

looked back at the log Xrptie and believe it or not, having acted in Romeo and Juliet 40+ years ago, I remember the word-speeled with an i instead of a y, but still. Thanks!!

6:56 am

Jacula

Faerie - you did, by a whisker!

7:00 am

faeriekae

{{{Angel}}} Good Morning :)

7:00 am

Babbledude

7:00 am

Yeah, great and still decent. Wouldn't vouch for that if I went following the theme today.

7:00 am

faeriekae

Oh Jacs I can't imagine anyone would but then you just never know about some people.

7:01 am

FMitch

Why do I suddenly think of Capone ;)

7:01 am

Jacula

FMitch - snap!

7:02 am

Eva

7:03 am

movieman

7:06 am

7:06 am

sprite

View entire chat log doesn't work for you? The button I mean?

7:06 am

movieman

Or I could have used a poster or still from "One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest".....LOL.....

7:06 am

Jacula

27 words left to find, but they're slower being found now. Think I'll go and continue painting the shed with green preserver while the weather's dry. BBL.

7:07 am

faeriekae

that would have been perfect Movieman

7:07 am

Eva

no-it takes forever, even when it works-I mean 5-10 minutes to load, but most of the time just stalls out and I have to force quite and reboot. Not worth it. Have raised it with Jamie, but he can't come up with a solution

7:07 am

FMitch

thats a pain Eva. I will type the clue again using the correct words this time co8 - 2 words
think - cola habit above the neck c4 + h4

7:07 am

Eva

Probably because I have dial up service. No other choices out here in the boonies

7:07 am

sprite

That's not nice, Eva :(
Ok guys, refresh to see my nuts.

7:08 am

amandacath

or Barbra Streisand, MM

They actually blocked babble for two days and I thought the kids would blow up! They were hysterical cause they couldn't do the puzzles during their "spare time" moments. I had to talk to the system admin person and tell her that the kids were going to go into cardiac arrest if she didn't put it back on the cleared list! LOL

7:34 am

movieman

There's a shark in the grid!!!!! There's a shark in the grid!!!!!

7:35 am

musicmom

LOL Miss ABS --- what age are the students? My 12 year old plays with me sometimes.

7:35 am

CJ25

Miss ABS why did they block it?

7:35 am

Miss ABS

Initially it came up as a "games" website... and of course everyone knows that school couldn't possibly be fun so no one should be playing games. :p

7:35 am

amandacath

Clue us in so we can get out of it's way, MovieMan!

7:35 am

CJ25

schools!

7:35 am

musicmom

She'll be sitting in my chair and say 'I see a word. Can I type it?"

7:35 am

Miss ABS

I teach year 6 and 7 (grade 6 and 7) so they're from 10 - 13ish

7:36 am

Miss ABS

oh I've got kids that turn up 20 minutes early for school just so they can babble. Kids from other classes even come into my room to play. It's cute.

7:36 am

movieman

amanda - it's an ma4.....plural for a 5.....

7:36 am

musicmom

I feel really comfortable having her play this one because the chat log is clean (mostly<G>) and it challenges her reasoning and language skills

7:36 am

amandacath

Yay, got it - thx, movie!

7:36 am

Miss ABS

It's also a brand of sunglasses movieman! And of course, the logo is a... you guessed it SHARK!

Anniebrook

hi, BGL

7:37 am

abe79

hi bgl

7:37 am

Miss ABS

Yeah it's excellent. My kids were cracking me up one day because there was a "dirty word" in the grid and someone said it in chat and they came to me all up in arms and said "Miss S, we didn't put it but someone else did and it's a swear! A bad swear, but we didn't do it!" They were so paranoid.

7:37 am

musicmom

Hey BGL -- how's that new kitty

7:38 am

Miss ABS

AnnieBrook you're not from CO are you?

7:38 am

saintfranny

amandacath

If you teachers out there would like some good games for kids, take a look at http://www.kaser.com/index.html - less word games than logicals, but I love them

7:39 am

BGL

She's really cute, still adjusting. We had a standoff yesterday with all three in different corners just staring at each other. (and hissing occasionally)

7:39 am

Anniebrook

Miss ABS, no, Im from Brooklyn, NY. Hence, my name. the 3 7's is my poker name. never changed it for babble so it stuck.

7:39 am

musicmom

7:39 am

musicmom

BGL - Has Dexter had a melt down yet?

7:40 am

amandacath

Hi BGL

7:40 am

Miss ABS

Ah okay, I just went to University with an Amanda Brook in CO so I had to ask. That would have been entirely random if you were the same person.

7:40 am

BGL

No, but he's trying to figure out what's going on. I think eventually he and Maia will be friends... Niles is the wildcard

7:40 am

Miss ABS

Anyway all I'm off for tonight. Tomorrow morning will come entirely too early. Take care everyone and I'll see you tomorrow sometime. Happy babbling!

7:41 am

8:05 am

abe79

i hate it when that happens, cj25

8:05 am

jbp

yes, we can get it here, too --hannaford, price chopper, etc. but I think the pic of a SEVEN POUND jar (did I mention that part) was what had me going

8:05 am

jbp

the trick is to mash up the 'nanas, and mix them into the batter....

8:05 am

jbp

mmmmm

8:05 am

musicmom

I just can't imagine being able to eat it fast enough to have 7 lbs of it. It is very rich

8:06 am

8:07 am

CJ25

FMitch - I never get there that is the problem :-(

8:08 am

Atalante

nutella and toblerone fondue is the best thing ever

8:08 am

CJ25

milky way will be so sickly

8:08 am

musicmom

Only two t words today --- very interesting

8:08 am

jbp

8:08 am

10:21 am

amandacath

Yay Faerie!

10:22 am

stidmama

a question, FK -- someone in Ontario was talking about having trouble growing roses. You live closer to their climate than I do -- are they in the place where you have to really pamper roses to make them healthy?

10:22 am

jbp

cy words, besides the cy4 that's lumpy

10:22 am

72 Temple Owl

ty *dives back into log*

10:23 am

faeriekae

Stid - My roses do really well..I have all kinds of roses

10:23 am

evanonut

stid - where you is? i just chuck em in the ground and cut when it freezes

10:23 am

faeriekae

and Thank you everyone :)

10:23 am

evanonut

nice nuts faerie

10:23 am

stidmama

I live at the south end of Puget Sound, very mild climate, more like mid-coast California because we are only a short distance from the water.

10:24 am

evanonut

i'm middle-ish pa - my rose is easy

10:24 am

jbp

and i got the cy 4/8 that ends like stid

10:24 am

faeriekae

Stid - I don't cut my roses back until spring.

10:24 am

TheFiz

hi all - how goes the grid?

10:24 am

faeriekae

Thanks Evan LOL

10:25 am

bunnyvicious

cy4/8 - cy + slang for mother, build of that with other vowel for the other two

10:25 am

stidmama

I have the philosophy that I only grow things that are easy -- life is too short (and my garden too big) to fuss over temperamental plants.

10:25 am

TheFiz

hady

10:25 am

72 Temple Owl

what strange words! amanda i though she was cluing the dr word so i skipped it. BUNNY!

10:25 am

jbp

10:26 am

hetty

Did you see yourself in the grid, Stid ?(says the poet who dont knowit) I keep seeing phntome woreds like hegemony and armadillo so I'm going to take a break over a nutty breakfast.

10:26 am

stidmama

yes, I have a few hostas (will get more when I start to focus on the shade garden), one of them finally got ahead of the slugs this year and is enormous!

10:26 am

ch1212

10:27 am

faeriekae

Later ch12

bunnyvicious

bye ch1212

10:27 am

evanonut

hostas are great, i once spent $75 on a hosta

10:27 am

jbp

i think we should have a haiku contest with words we see as phantoms in the grid... how else can we get coitus, hegemony and armadillo all together??

10:27 am

CJ25

there is a jewish word in a word I believe? What word does it begin with if that makes any sense?

10:27 am

jbp

c ya ch1212

10:27 am

stidmama

Yes, Fiz, most of my plants are like that -- I do try to weed a couple times and put extra top-dressing and fertilizer for plants that have been in a while... otherwise I like to sit back and enjoy!

10:28 am

faeriekae

Evan $75.00 for a hosta???? Are you kidding???

10:28 am

stidmama

10:29 am

abe79

bye temple and ch1212

10:29 am

faeriekae

Stid is that a rose from your garden?

10:29 am

stidmama

I am allergic to hibiscus... when we lived in Puerto Rico there were hedges of the stuff between the houses...

10:29 am

musicmom

hi everyone! I'm back to finish. Just about halfway through

10:29 am

stidmama

hi abe!

10:29 am

stidmama

10:29 am

10:29 am

faeriekae

Stid it is beautiful....do you know what kind it is?

10:30 am

abe79

i have to do this grid in spurts

10:30 am

Uncagain

I tried twice to put in dromedary

10:30 am

musicmom

not on the level of roses, hibiscus or hosta- but I thought I had killed my marigolds last week but this morning there are blooms. Yey!

10:30 am

TheFiz

I put in a rose bosh a few years ago - 2 seasons of lovely golden pink roses - then last year the most intense 80s hot pink you could imagine - don't know what happened! But very prolific and sweet smelling, so I'm rolling with it.

10:30 am

jbp

di 5/18 suggestions?

10:31 am

CJ25

nah cant get the yiddish one

10:31 am

musicmom

yep this is definitely the kind of grid you have to walk away from

10:31 am

TheFiz

LOL MM - marigolds keep the slugs away - they're great

10:31 am

stidmama

no faeriekae, I don't. A neighbor gave it to me when we moved in -- his wife had been a friend of mine... my aunt said it might be "fire and ice" because it has such a lovely scent.

10:31 am

bunnyvicious

di 5/18 - di + another word for town without the "i"

10:31 am

jbp

ar+exclamation+2 consonant

10:31 am

movieman

Missing 3 7's......I have the ar7, ca7 & the dr7....cluez plz.....

10:32 am

jbp

is it the word for eek you can't get?

10:32 am

faeriekae

Fiz-the 3rd year is usually the beginning of the most beautiful blooms ever. :)

10:32 am

musicmom

I'm pathetic Fiz - I can kill everything!

10:32 am

faeriekae

Stid thats what it looks it..was just wondering

10:33 am

bunnyvicious

there are two da 7's, dr 7, & ed 7

10:33 am

jbp

a penny in the soil will make the colors more vibrant

10:33 am

amandacath

2x da7 - Mitch clued them earlier if you can get back that far...

10:33 am

stidmama

:-) the only thing I did differently this year was start putting banana peels around the base under the surface of the dirt -- seems to have really done the trick!

10:33 am

CJ25

jpb - after all of that I had the stupid word anyway :-s

10:33 am

faeriekae

*banana peels* gotta remember that!!

10:34 am

jbp

;-) cj... dpm

10:34 am

stidmama

but I didn't, so very grateful for the work, CJ and jbp!

10:34 am

jbp

tontcha love when that happens

10:34 am

TheFiz

MM - my dad and grandfather were amazing gardeners - they taught me everything I know. The one think I could use more of, though, is patience.

10:34 am

movieman

Bunny - cluez for those plz......

10:34 am

bunnyvicious

The ed 7 - ed + first vowel + another word for town

10:34 am

faeriekae

*a penny in soil* gotta remember that too.

10:34 am

TheFiz

Roses LOVE banana peels - egg shells too.

10:34 am

jbp

makes roses rosier and turns hydrangeas bluish

10:34 am

bunnyvicious

the da 7's are identical except for the last letter, one plural, one with a sometimes vowel at the end

10:35 am

TheFiz

and - if you can stomach it - blood meal.

10:35 am

jbp

my swedish relatives use eggshells mixed w/ coffeegrounds

10:35 am

jbp

all blood meal ever did for me was make my cats want to roll around in the flowerbeds

10:35 am

bunnyvicious

dr 7 rhymes with what is in the waist of stretchy pants

10:35 am

jbp

yick

10:35 am

dinoshadow

roses also like fireplace ashes

10:35 am

stidmama

I could use more "diligence" and do the things I know are supposed to be done... my grandfathers were (one still is) wonderfully well-informed and prolific gardeners. I am a lot more laissez-faire...

10:35 am

movieman

Do the da7's have definitions, bunny?

10:35 am

CJ25

coffee flavoured roses

10:35 am

faeriekae

Fiz - I just bought blood meal over the weekend. I'm waiting for it to stop raining before I put it down

10:35 am

TheFiz

Jbp - that sounds like my compost heap - I need to eat more veggies!

10:36 am

jbp

great clue bunnyV

10:36 am

CJ25

I mean scented not flavoured

10:36 am

stidmama

thanks bunny! I am finally to the point where my only stretchy pants are sweats I wear as jammies....

10:36 am

musicmom

don't eat the veggies fiz - just put them in the compost

10:36 am

jbp

so,,,di 5/18 help?

10:36 am

CJ25

bunny it was good

10:36 am

amandacath

MM, da6 - A member of a robber band or gang in India or Myanmar (Burma)

10:36 am

TheFiz

Good point, MM - sometimes they sit in the fridge long enough that it works out that way.

10:37 am

bunnyvicious

di 5/18 - di + another word for town without the "i"

10:37 am

amandacath

jbp - it's a silly word... short for the tape recorder a boss uses and gives to his secretary?

10:37 am

bunnyvicious

di 5/18 - di + another word for town without the "i"

10:37 am

dinoshadow

jbp - a blond is usually considered di5/18

10:37 am

hydra

10:38 am

movieman

10:38 am

jbp

10:38 am

movieman

10:38 am

stidmama

musicmom

10:38 am

musicmom

10:38 am

dinoshadow

hydra, ca7 and 8 sound like a thing you take pictures with (one is plural)

10:38 am

bunnyvicious

the ca 7 ends with o 4/4

10:39 am

movieman

hydra - try googling "a secret society in Naples notorious for violence and blackmail "

10:39 am

10:45 am

TheFiz

10:45 am

musicmom

LOL you wouldn't be laughing if you saw the place.

10:46 am

musicmom

We have heard they are remodeling the one I lived in freshman year (19 years ago) this summer.

10:46 am

jbp

so, clues for the ed7/44?

10:46 am

TheFiz

I had one of my own - 15 roommates in an old frat house. off campus - but still...

10:46 am

stidmama

oh, I remember several places I lived in college -- tough to go to school full-time and work minimum wage jobs and still eat...

10:46 am

musicmom

I would say it is about time

10:46 am

bunnyvicious

Ope, my Mommy is here, better get, see ya'll tomorrow I hope!!

10:46 am

musicmom

yes stidmama - but we are stronger women and better home managers for it.

10:47 am

jbp

bye bye bunny

10:47 am

musicmom

My freshman year I had a roommate who didn't know how to do laudry --- she just threw underwear away and bought more since she was from Chicago and couldn't get home often enough to wash.

10:47 am

TheFiz

bye bunny.

10:47 am

stidmama

true enough, musicmom!

10:47 am

musicmom

she had a ridiculous amount of clothing.

10:47 am

stidmama

*gasp of disbelief*

10:47 am

jbp

i knew several guys in the dorms who would mail laundry home

10:47 am

stidmama

bye bunny!

10:47 am

CJ25

rich?

10:47 am

jbp

totally zany

10:48 am

musicmom

OH YEAH!

10:48 am

amandacath

jbp - like "you have the au****** to ask for a clue?!" - change the beginning

10:48 am

TheFiz

I had a freshman roommate who changed in the closet - 9 months of living together and I don't think I ever saw her legs.

10:48 am

jbp

they were from LawnGuyland

10:48 am

stidmama

my children already know how to do the laundry -- putting it away seems to be a more difficult task for some reason...

10:48 am

musicmom

I had a "mean" mom who made me cook, clean and launder while I was in high school

10:48 am

jbp

Fiz, is that a metaphor for something

10:48 am

musicmom

LOL Fiz

I've just come in from nutty breakfast to see the discussion of laundry and itvreminds me of my youngest dauhtrer's method of dealing with it-she and her lovely bloke each have 2 chairs in the bedroom , one for dirty and one for clean. (They iron only when about to wear a freshly washed outfit.) Sadly they cant always rember tother from which, so Mandy ends up rewashing clean clothes and ironing dirty ones. . .

10:53 am

jbp

thanks fiz and amanda!

10:53 am

amandacath

my last word - sa5/16? Or are you going to make me monkey it...? :)

10:54 am

musicmom

LOL Hetty --- sounds like my 12 year old - I never know whether the clothes in her hamper are dirty or clean. My solution is to make her do her own laundry

10:54 am

musicmom

I don't have it amanda

10:54 am

hurshy

amanda...it sounds arabic

10:54 am

stidmama

oh hetty, that hits too close to home -- I iron things only when I am going to wear them -- but that's because most of my clothes are jeans and T-shirts... Tom irons his work shirts the weekend before...

10:55 am

Dippnall

butting in on the laundry chat... painful...daughter just home form uni .. need I say more...

10:55 am

stidmama

condolences, Dippnall!!!! LOL

10:56 am

musicmom

I only iron on an as needed basis but I hang things up on hangers as they come out of the dryer. In our old house, it didn't do me any good to iron everything at once because the closet was so small. We have a walk in now but haven't gotten in the habit of ironing regularly

10:56 am

jbp

sa 5/12 ends the same was as the biblical king who had it in for JC

10:56 am

Poor dippnall

10:56 am

Ironing is overrated.

10:56 am

amandacath

Yay got it! Sexy Lost guy (or one of them, at least...) I'm done then - and off to feed rumbling tummy and learn lines before my director tosses me out of the play!

10:57 am

Hello, Minski.

musicmom

Funny story -- my husband is a professional musician and often wears a tux. Right after we got married I was bemoaning ironing the stupid shirt to the wife of one of the profs. She just laughed -- said 'Don't you know you only iron the front? The sleeves and back get messed up by the jacket - who knows whether you iron or not.

10:58 am

musicmom

Hi Minski

10:58 am

musicmom

BTW- Hi Vic

Seeing the book chat makes me feel very wishful of expressing my ideas about the value of literature. As a specialist in novel theory, I have for many years taught books I loveand my main pleasure in life now I'm retird is sharing this love of books with others--I think a great novel, like any other great work of art, teaches us to view the world differently--shows us how to look into our own hearts and see our world from a new perspective that goes beyond our own self-interest--it fulfils the function of myth in human experience

Atalante

what exactly is novel theory, hetty? sounds interesting - I'm very interested in how myth is portrayed in fantasy books

4:17 pm

stidmama

WOW Hetty, well said! yes, yes and yes.

4:17 pm

Cathyar

tks...hetty...that was lovely....but may i ask for a clue for ed7 pls? (BTW..hetty...i do agree)

4:17 pm

Ping

i agree with you, hetty

4:18 pm

snowyowl

hear,hear hetty! I must admit to not being 'well' read but do love words for their own sake & love that lift a good read can give you. Being VERY busy with the granchildren has allowed me to read muchless demanding novels recently & I've had such fun!

4:18 pm

hetty

e
d a7, take the fancy word for daring and subsiutute

4:19 pm

hetty

an "e" for the first 2 letters

4:19 pm

oggy

ed+1st vowel + ci4/7

4:19 pm

BGL

I agree with you Hetty. As a past Lit teacher I was always amazed by people who didn't like to read, who found it boring. I am very excited about recent children's and young adult lit that seems to have gone back to the lit of old and not that fluffy stuff that was really popular for a long time.

4:19 pm

Cathyar

wow...never have i seen it spelled that way b4...tks oggy

4:20 pm

nrkii

okay, I had already monkey-typed the e7, so when I used your clues, I got the message that I had already entered it!! LOL

4:20 pm

Cathyar

i guess it's a word i've not heard of b4

4:20 pm

nrkii

cathy, the ed7 means voraciousness

4:20 pm

Cathyar

not like the au form of it...does it mean the same thing?

4:20 pm

hetty

It would bore you to hear about novel theory. . . it simply means leaning more about how and why novels are written. I used to have a sign on my office door s

4:21 pm

hetty

saying "As a novel lover I find myself perpetually bookede"

4:21 pm

Cathyar

i think it does mean the same as the au then.

4:21 pm

BGL

Hetty, I LOVE that sign!

4:22 pm

Atalante

doesn't sound boring at all! I must have spent years reading about novel theory applicable to Tolkien without even knowing it :)

4:22 pm

nrkii

snowy owl, I was a literature major for my undergrad and grad degrees, and I personally think "fun reading" is wonderful as is "serious reading"

4:23 pm

nrkii

meanwhile, did anyone ever help mad with the DA's?

4:23 pm

nrkii

:)

4:24 pm

mad

nope, sorry

4:25 pm

stidmama

I like reading, but not "literatire" -- never liked dissecting what I read... perhaps I had the wrong teachers early on, Hetty! because seems novel theory runs along the lines of how I think about books and writing. I like to know why and how.

4:25 pm

hetty

Good for you, Atalante. I men when I talk about boring only the stuffabout post-moxernism annd deconstructionism and all the other isms that bedevil university clases in novel criticism. But I have to say one more oprofessorial thing, and it is that myth is not necesarily to be equated with fantasy--myth is a narratve (always a narrative) that seeks to explain what is otherwise inexlicable. It is a special kind of truth therefore, a truth more valuable than "fact"

4:25 pm

jillibus

hi hetty - i'm at the library and guess who i found on the computer when i went to babble (it's a quiet day)

4:25 pm

stidmama

da + short form of "company" + impersonal pronoun, then plural for the first two da

4:26 pm

stidmama

the other da 7 is not plural, but ends in y

4:26 pm

stidmama

the last da is the woman's equivalent for British "knight"

4:26 pm

snowyowl

I have really enjoyed reading all sorts of nonsense! I as bedridden for a few months of every year for 4 years age 6-10 and had read almost all of Dickens & quite a few classics. I'm the sort of reader who has to read the cereal packet if there's not a book nearby. I'm in the library at every excuse & am busy instilling a love of books in my grandchildren. we're having a lovely time! Cannot sleep without reading even if it's 5 am & I only manage two lines! Have bought a book prop & can now read & iron & read & cook! GREAT

4:26 pm

hetty

Hi Jill! and guess what I'm talking about!My usual lbrary subject!

4:27 pm

Atalante

yes ... Tolkien was always very specific that he was creating myth, and looking at how that traditionof myth-making compared to fantasy has been passed down from people like McDonald before him, to ALan Garner and JK Rowling (!) after him is fascinating (I was brought up on myths from various places, its entrenched into me!)

4:27 pm

stidmama

Hetty -- that is how I have tried to explain things to my boys all along! That TRUTH can hide in story, and to look for that as much as "fact" in reading books from other times and places (and even from "now")

4:27 pm

hetty

Great, snowyowl You feed your imagination, which is what it's all about.

4:28 pm

Atalante

Alan Garner - there;s another name for you, Munner!

4:28 pm

BGL

Stid~ I wouldn't think of literature as stuffy. I think well written books are literature. Although I draw the line at formula novels!

4:28 pm

mad

Thanks stidmama, got them

4:28 pm

stidmama

books, snowyowl, were my solace in young life too -- we moved a lot as a military family, and it was easier to keep my "book" friends than to worry about fitting in in new places.

4:29 pm

BGL

Atalante~ what do you think of Piers Anthony? I love his INcarnations of Imortality series

4:29 pm

stidmama

and I would generally rather read than almost anything else... except now I found Babble there isn't much time left for reading! LOL

4:30 pm

Uncagain

I think that the difference between formula novels and literature is whether or not they are well written.

4:30 pm

hetty

One day, Stid, when we are not babbling but talking. I'l talk more about why I'v egiven my life toliterature, and why enjoying books means far more than analyzing them. Later thoiugh. I have my hospital visits to do now. Jst keep on reading! Particularly Ian McEwan!

4:30 pm

nrkii

BGL, some of my favorite books are classic formula novels -- Nancy Drew mysteries! I read them when I was a kid, and am now rereading all of them.

4:30 pm

stidmama

I love the Incarnations series. I think Piers Anthony is fun to read and the ideas in those books are intriguing -- but I have to say that in the subsequent books sometimes the "backtracking" and "filling" to bring people up to speed got a little tedious.

4:30 pm

BGL

That's true all novels follow a formula, I was thinking along the lines of dime-store romance novels... whaich are fun to read, but not "literature"

4:31 pm

Atalante

gosh, I haven't read any Piers Anthony for ages! I loved his books when I read them though - I'm getting back more into the sci-fi end of fantasy though - adult "fantasy" itself is becoming very formulaic at the moment - with a few exceptions - its horribly depressing

4:31 pm

Atalante

IAN MCEWAN! Yay!

4:31 pm

stidmama

Hetty -- bless you for visiting in the hospital, and see you later!

4:31 pm

mad

help with the di 5 16 please

4:31 pm

smaller

mad- you're in the grid today!!!

4:32 pm

BGL

I love the Bobbsey Twins!

4:32 pm

snowyowl

I know what you mean stidmama - a good story was a great analgesic when my joints were red hot & painful. My mum says I love reading 'cos she read The wind in The willows ' to me when she fed me & I did the same for my daughter when I fed her. Cannot imagine a world with no reading in it & I would still prefer to read than do anything else.

4:32 pm

Uncagain

If you want fantasy as literature; please give the works of Gene Wolfe a try

4:32 pm

stidmama

di 5/16 is what I feel today -- not quite connecting, rather the stereotypical "blonde" word. d + impersonal pronoun +plural letters (that's the 4/5) then add a y to make it an adjecive

4:32 pm

oggy

mad add y to the one before it

4:32 pm

smaller

mad - di5/16 another spelling for someone who is bubbleheaded

4:33 pm

stidmama

or "babbleheaded" smaller? LOL

5:47 pm

mich_pdx

5:47 pm

marymary

Every Babbler's finger will be crossed (though it may impede o
ur typing)

5:47 pm

5:53 pm

periwinkle

Hi, all, just started, may I please have clues for the ca8 and co8 and any other long words :)

5:54 pm

Cathyar

ca8 is plural of ca7/36... which sounds like the thing u take pictures with, but spelled a couple letters differently

5:55 pm

Anniebrook

hi peri, ca/8 ca + fort in puerto rico

5:55 pm

Alien

ar 6 and 7: ar + ***rogers + thing a squirrel will eat minus the vowel. (then plural)

5:55 pm

Anniebrook

5:55 pm

Cathyar

the co8 is a compound word co** (the carbonated drink) and he4/6

5:55 pm

5:59 pm

snowyowl

6:00 pm

Anniebrook

I have been at this for about a month and I am in awe of anyone who finishes. One day. One day.

6:00 pm

marymary

Savor the journey, Cathyar. The destination is secondary. And we like chatting with you!

6:00 pm

Cathyar

u'll get there annie...some of the words seem repetitive by times...and u get used to what is "odd" in what is in Dr.God's dictionary

6:01 pm

Cathyar

lol...listen to me talkin like "old hat" or sumthin

6:01 pm

marymary

Alien, your icon looks to be an original work. Is it yours? And what is the medium?

6:01 pm

Anniebrook

Yes, the journey is fun. Even tho, I am not a big chatterer, I enjoy listening to the chat and I get help along the way.

6:01 pm

Cathyar

Dr. God's dictionary is nothing like Websters...it's worldwide dictionary

6:02 pm

Alien

I wish i could claim the drawing...but I stole it from google images.

6:02 pm

marymary

Very nice, in any case.

6:02 pm

Alien

6:03 pm

Cathyar

6:04 pm

mich_pdx

cathyar, it's been great having your voice in the chat today. hope to see you again soon!

6:04 pm

6:04 pm

Cathyar

HETTY WOULD SHOOT ME FOR MY LANGUAGE

6:05 pm

GuyGuy

how many words are there?

6:05 pm

mich_pdx

153 guy

6:05 pm

Alien

153 words

6:05 pm

helenkeller

cath - what's wrong with your language?

6:06 pm

marymary

She's just referring to verbal shortcuts, B4 and the like. Not foul language...

6:06 pm

mich_pdx

just found the fish that I slapped myself with earlier.... in the h's (clue)

6:07 pm

helenkeller

ah - so my ? remains - what's wrong with that?

6:08 pm

marymary

Oh, Hetty is ... how to say... a little 'old school'. Actually, she's tremendously hip!

6:09 pm

helenkeller

ah - i see - i guess i haven't ever heard her say anythign about that, cause yeh, i agree she's hip (& very, very smart!)

6:10 pm

mich_pdx

it is funny, you can tell the relative age of chatters by how complete their spelling is...... totally (often older), abbrev, & da txt sp, wot u say?

6:11 pm

marymary

Oh I doubt she'd EVER say anything about it. I think Cathyar feared how academic Hetty seems rather than fearing actual berating. Hetty amazes me.

6:11 pm

helenkeller

LOL missy !!

6:12 pm

mich_pdx

when the trolls get out of control, it's pretty easy to figure them for 15 and under, cos they dont spel 4 beanz

6:12 pm

helenkeller

yes - hetty is a little scary in the depth & breadth of what she knows - sometimes she freaks me out

6:12 pm

snowyowl

lol It takes us so long to transslate all this new speak it's easier & faster to write it out in full!

6:12 pm

helenkeller

7:00 pm

featherbee

oh, it is? hmm...i haven't started yet...

7:00 pm

stidmama

I think the only way to do it missyem is to create a new user... but perhaps you can ask Dr. God?

7:01 pm

mich_pdx

(sheepishly) and how does one contact The Creator?

7:01 pm

stidmama

there is a link I think at the bottom of one of the babble pages?

7:02 pm

stid, you are a remarkable caffeinator (chief caffeinatrix?)

7:07 pm

featherbee

this crazy weather is doing a doozy on me. i'm pain free now, but am feeling the after affects

7:08 pm

stidmama

LOL -- I know, and I actually rarely have the real thing, usually I go decaf!

7:08 pm

stidmama

In a lot of ways the aftereffects are worse for me. It almost feels like I "ought" to be able to just bounce back, but it doesn't work that way.

7:09 pm

nrkii

I've been caffeine free for 7 years and I still pine for it (I never gave up chocolate though, because that would be plain crazy)

Hi all, I have a question. :) After you have playedd for awhile, does it become easier to spot the "odd" words? I guess what I mean is, are they repeated frequently enough that after awhile it becomes easier? I don't use any word lists etc, and I think I have only finished one or two, and that was with major help. I'd like to be able to do it on my own I guess :)

7:10 pm

stidmama

I find that when I drink a lot of caffeine it makes the anxiety disorder worse, and after a while I am just a bundle of nerves...

7:10 pm

nrkii

cat, yes, you do start to spot them

7:10 pm

stidmama

hi Cat! sometimes it's easier, sometimes not! But there are almost always a few "new" words it seems, or a "babblet" that you just fail to see. At least that is how it works for me!

7:11 pm

Cat9x

Can I ask what a babblet is? Are these real words?

7:11 pm

nrkii

glass half full ... glass half empty...

7:11 pm

Cat9x

TY nrkii and stidmama :)

7:11 pm

mich_pdx

speaking of which, the monkeys aren't finding the sa 5/16...... hint?

7:11 pm

stidmama

a babblet is a word that appears frequently in the grid -- usually a "real" but uncommon word.

7:12 pm

Cat9x

oh ok ty :)

7:12 pm

stidmama

sa 5/16: "speak" + opposite of ego

7:12 pm

Cat9x

'm learning, slow but sure lol

7:13 pm

CadFan

can I get some help with D's... let's start with da 6/24?

7:13 pm

mich_pdx

thank you, thank you, stidmama! I'm at 3 left..... (dives)

7:14 pm

stidmama

go missyem go!

7:14 pm

mab

I agree with stidmama, Cat; some words you come to know, while others are surprises. I think your approach may make you advance more quickly than we list users. I don't know for sure, however, as I'm pretty lost without the list once I'm two-thirds of the way.

7:15 pm

featherbee

caffeine problem? who has a caffeine problem? huh? huh? huh? why you all looking at me???? my leg? oh, it always bounces like that. typos? if my hands would stop shaking, i'd hit the right keys!!! no caffeine problem here!

7:15 pm

stidmama

da 6/24 is da + "company" abbreviation +impersonal pronoun; then plural for the next, change to adverb for the next; the last da is woman equivalent for english "knight"

7:16 pm

CadFan

:) - hey, at least I have the last da, I'm not totally useless on my own! Thanks.. off to hunt!

7:16 pm

nrkii

lol feather

7:16 pm

featherbee

*jitters back to the grid*

7:16 pm

Cat9x

ty Mab :) I never make it past two thirds of the way without help. Like now, I have 38 left and stuck lol

7:16 pm

mich_pdx

(me too, laughing, typing so**, so**, so**, etc.)

7:17 pm

mab

stidm - that word that you just clued is a good example of something I'd never think to monkey type. I think some people have a better sense of how language works in general.

7:17 pm

libarebel

ty, stid for da6/24-- never would have got it... going to look it up! brb

7:17 pm

stidmama

yes, and some of us are on throughout the day, picking up good clues while we hunt!

7:18 pm

Cat9x

I agree mab, some people do have a better sense of how language works, so they know what to look for.

7:18 pm

CadFan

so, I still need a do 5/12 and 2 4/5's one of which I believe is the very last one

7:18 pm

mich_pdx

stidmama

YAY missyem! woo-hoo!

stidmama

9:31 pm

i love those ads where a camera man comes up to a woman in a supermarket and asks if she ever has a problem with feminine odor, and she goes "oh yeah! that's a big one!"

9:31 pm

72 Temple Owl

his parents accompanied him to ny - met all contestants - all were great. i never watched until i found out about bj. and at first i thought tyler was brian's son - blond hair...

9:32 pm

LeslieAnn

da 7/44 - da + "company" abbr. + the ** girl + sometimes vowel

9:32 pm

wassup

yeah, and when the room darkens and they zoom in on a woman who in a serious voice talks about feminine itching. ew

9:32 pm

froelica

i know!! james is like, how do they get away with this??

9:33 pm

Inariargenteus

Most of the feminine product ones go places I'd rather they didn't.

9:33 pm

wassup

i wonder who would be in those commercials! i'm not sure you could pay me enough! who would want to be remembered as the vagisil chick?

9:33 pm

LeslieAnn

where else would you put them, inaria?? oh, wait... never mind

9:33 pm

ScoutsMom

best is when you're watching tv with your new boyfriend and they show one of those ads. not at all uncomfortable.

9:33 pm

Inariargenteus

heeheeheeeheeheeheehee

9:34 pm

LeslieAnn

wasssssup, like the friends where joey was in the ad for vd

9:34 pm

froelica

9:34 pm

wassup

amen inariargenteus (dang, long name) you will be "i" from now on

9:35 pm

72 Temple Owl

9:35 pm

Inariargenteus

ronnielee, those play along the same lines as the 7/44...

9:35 pm

Inariargenteus

Just different endings & one's shorter.

9:35 pm

ronnielee

looks like 7/44 is a plural for the 6/24

9:36 pm

ronnielee

9:36 pm

LeslieAnn

72 Temple Owl

9:39 pm

9:42 pm

helenkeller

nope, they had to do it together -part of the rules, you both have to appear on the tape at the same time - that's why i'm worried, there's almost a whole minute of just me, in her jacuzzi, sipping champagne (appropriately covered in bubbles, of course!) :)

9:43 pm

LeslieAnn

helen, you should play yourself up as hos, they always have at least one girl pair of those

Jack's a mean man with a gay neighbor and a waitress he loves in his own unique way.

10:30 pm

10:31 pm

LeslieAnn

it is actually pretty good - i'm a bit burned out on reality tv, but it's hard for anything to be set up or super cheesy, b/c everything's going so fast and a lot of it depends on luck and how they interact with other people

10:32 pm

ronnielee

co's soory

10:53 pm

LeslieAnn

oh, the co 5/12 is all vowels after the c

11:09 pm

ChiUnit

apparently the gh is A clarified semifluid butter used especially in Indian cooking.

11:09 pm

ChiUnit

am I right?

11:09 pm

pwinn

Right, and the tigers in the story ran around a tree until they melted into same, which was used to prepare pancakes, of which Babaji ate quite a few. :)

11:09 pm

ChiUnit

11:10 pm

11:16 pm

LeslieAnn

there are three ok's. one is a vegetable and plural, the other is ok + what a canadian might say

chiunit, it has a plural also

11:16 pm

ChiUnit

11:16 pm
