12:33 am

wassup

hehe naughty word...

12:34 am

ChiUnit

so I was just wondering...is this game played by predominantly females?

12:34 am

kierlex

i think so chi

12:35 am

wassup

yeah, i think so chiunit. at least the ones who chat are mostly female

12:35 am

ChiUnit

huh...so that makes me a minority doesn't it?

12:35 am

kierlex

ORRR maybe it's just the females that chat more?

12:35 am

firefly779

Chi, i'd say that's the majority that CHATS, but who knows who's playing... ;)

12:35 am

kierlex

my hubby and son really like to play, too

12:35 am

JaiKnut

201 words in 35 minutes, I think we've done our work for the night. G'night all, we'll see you in the morning!

12:35 am

ChiUnit

either way, I'm a minority...as I am the only guy chatting...or rather, who has presented himself

12:36 am

wassup

my hubby sneers at babble and makes comments about me babbling all the time.

12:36 am

wassup

hello sir. welcome

12:36 am

kristinc

chiunit...we have quite a few male friends who chat and enjoy their company so don't be shy :)

12:36 am

firefly779

good going JaiKnut!

12:36 am

kristinc

my husband plays but doesn't chat

12:36 am

kierlex

my hubby sneered until we sat down and did it (babbling) together...

12:37 am

ChiUnit

oh believe me, I'm not shy, more curious than anything else

12:37 am

anders

i'm here too, chi

12:37 am

wassup

he would be really bad at it. i keep telling him to prove me wrong, but he wont try. (doesn't like failure i guess...) :)

12:37 am

kristinc

hooray anders and welcome chi!

12:37 am

ChiUnit

hahaha, so two guys in the chatterbox

12:37 am

kierlex

ahhh, now i know what the little person is in blue or pink. DUH. I never noticed before.

12:37 am

anders

i'm just quieter than the lassies

12:38 am

wassup

lassies...ha! :)

12:38 am

ChiUnit

I'm sure this all has something to do with the male sense of ego and pride. They don't want help, clues or otherwise, nor do they want distractions from their relentless efforts of defeating the puzzle...on their own terms no doubt

12:38 am

firefly779

are you calling us loud anders? :P

12:38 am

kierlex

lassies... that reminds me of lady and the tramp (disney)

12:38 am

wassup

YEAH, WE'RE REALLY QUIET MOST OF THE TIME

12:38 am

kierlex

12:40 am

wassup

12:40 am

firefly779

12:40 am

anders

12:41 am

ChiUnit

12:42 am

wassup

12:42 am

firefly779

it's not impossible anders, just keep plugging away

12:42 am

kierlex

don't feel bad anybody, i have NEVER EVER finished one of these in over a month!

12:42 am

anders

the words aren't too hard at least

12:42 am

kristinc

kierlex...this could be your "ONE"

12:42 am

ChiUnit

I've never ever finished one...period...lol

12:42 am

wassup

i finish about 10 percent. usually at the last second

12:43 am

firefly779

i rarely finish myself kier, use the list if that's the goal (although i've done it twice w/out)

12:43 am

kierlex

kristinc... i am feeling the doubt...

12:43 am

kierlex

maybe we should start a separate club for nonfinishers!

12:43 am

wassup

*pushing the doubt back down*

12:44 am

wassup

12:44 am

kierlex

1:09 am

ChiUnit

1:09 am

jillibus

1:10 am

1:10 am

ChiUnit

1:10 am

kierlex

ohhhh, i was here that night. it was lucinda or something like that? wow, that is cool

edendaman

i thought the fat people were normally jolly

1:14 am

jillibus

apology from the two took place the same day. the next day maddie came back on the chat and did so again, asking for help with an 8-letter word. Miss Abs has used this site for broadening horizons and I think it's up to her to go on if she wants to.

1:14 am

ChiUnit

nah...fat people are generally unhappy

1:15 am

wassup

yeah, i need to get the kids in bed and clean up before josh gets home from his night of debauchery

1:17 am

ChiUnit

1:18 am

kierlex

1:18 am

ChiUnit

1:19 am

ChiUnit

1:19 am

jillibus

hi blaze - where in BC? i'm there too

1:19 am

kierlex

1:19 am

ChiUnit

1:20 am

kierlex

they never make good scary movies

1:20 am

kierlex

i see yur icon, blaze

1:20 am

ChiUnit

well The Omen is a remake, and generally, remakes are bad. As for the original, it was very good and scary, for its time...that was, what...the '60s?

1:21 am

Blaze

Hmm... I refreshed and still don't see it.... I will try going out and back in again...

1:21 am

kierlex

not sure, my parents were insanely religious so we just learned about that stuff at CHURCH like it was REAL. eyeroll

1:21 am

kierlex

blze, is it a beach umbrella?

1:22 am

ChiUnit

lol, see thats why I am proud to be an athiest

1:22 am

kierlex

amen to that!!

1:22 am

Blaze

Yes it is a beach umbrella.... I still have a blank... I will email Dr> G..... Thank you

1:23 am

kierlex

1:23 am

ChiUnit

1:23 am

kierlex

blaze did you totally exit your browser?

1:23 am

kierlex

well it's getting a little insane in the world, re. religion...

1:24 am

Blaze

Yes I did

1:24 am

kierlex

ok, that's the extent of my computer literacy =)

1:24 am

ChiUnit

yeah thats true

1:24 am

Blaze

thank you for your assisstance....

1:25 am

ChiUnit

the fact of the matter is, most of the killings committed in this world are based around the premise of "my imaginary friend is better than yours"

1:25 am

kierlex

did you kick your computer, blaze? just a little? sometimes that works.

1:26 am

kierlex

chi you chould read the book 'the end of faith: religion, terror and the end of reason' by sam harris

1:26 am

Blaze

I usually unplug it and beat it with the cord....

1:27 am

kierlex

one thing he says that i liked was 'imagine a world in which people killed each other over how their interpretation of what Star Wars means differed from someone else's interpretation of what Star Wars means' ... and then well that's basically what is happening

1:27 am

ChiUnit

sure thing

1:27 am

jillibus

blaze - i got your icon - did you get mine?

1:27 am

kierlex

1:29 am

ChiUnit

1:29 am

kierlex

ah they would probably say it was justifiable homicide

1:30 am

ChiUnit

or self defense

1:30 am

kierlex

or you could use the twinkie defense

1:30 am

ChiUnit

I'll have you know that a 3 1/2 floppy between the eyes can be fatal

1:31 am

Blaze

it was just an early veresion of virus protection...

3:00 am

GuyGuy

3:01 am

Nef

I only have the 1 tr9 from the clue you gave us, Matty.

3:01 am

Nef

sorry

3:03 am

Nef

I havew a tr7/28and a st7/32 if that would help

3:03 am

moonriver919

st 7/32 please

3:04 am

mattygroves

Both TR 9's are from the same root - one means to be (say) homeless or on the move, the other is if you take (say) the subway, you are using mass tr7/28 - then past tense that.

3:04 am

louie28

ok now im confused!

3:05 am

GuyGuy

didn't know that was proper tense... thanks

3:05 am

Nef

st 7/32 = dark furniture is usually st****

3:05 am

louie28

thanks heaps nef!!

3:06 am

moonriver919

wow. i'm an idiot... i had that!

3:06 am

louie28

3:07 am

jillibus

tr9/60 makes a noun into a verb, tsk tsk

3:07 am

Nef

well, once I DO get over 100+ words, I seem to forget I've already added some words to my list -- MANY times! :)

3:07 am

moonriver919

still do not understand the homeless tr 9

3:08 am

GuyGuy

how about saying tr9 is on the move

3:08 am

moonriver919

3:08 am

Nef

Moon they are not bums anymore, the more "PC" word is Tr***

3:08 am

Atalante

slightly over half way, time for a break! back later :)

3:09 am

Nef

are there only 2 di 7/32s?

3:09 am

SamanthaJoy

You know the st 7? If you take the last two letters of the end and move them to the front, it gives a whole new word!

3:09 am

SamanthaJoy

Now someone explain to me what it means?

3:10 am

moonriver919

oh

3:10 am

moonriver919

to hate

3:11 am

SamanthaJoy

Wait . . . there are TWO di 7?

3:11 am

Nef

using "shout" or any other prewash to get grass st*** out?

3:11 am

jillibus

sam

3:11 am

louie28

wow ive been on babble for a long time im gonna have a break to clear my head

3:11 am

jillibus

the word you wondered about is to remove what you did

3:12 am

louie28

ill be back soon

3:12 am

Nef

moon, The "to hate" clue is di 7/32

3:12 am

SamanthaJoy

Gotcha, thanks.

3:13 am

moonriver919

i have "to hate" as de 7/32

3:15 am

karob

if some one would give me a clue for 1 more NA in upper rt, i could go to bed.... LOL

3:15 am

SamanthaJoy

This "to hate" clue is totally eluding me

3:15 am

karob

have siesta; and the neck ones

3:16 am

jillibus

can you hint a bit more about the hating?

3:16 am

moonriver919

de 7/32 is same as using "shout" on some clothing

3:16 am

9tanks

samantha - di7 = di + what happens when you put ketchup on th shirt

3:17 am

moonriver919

oh. hahaha.

3:17 am

SamanthaJoy

Wait--is that the word you were using to mean "hate"?

3:17 am

Nef

de***:To remove st*** from (a specimen) to aid in microscopic study.

3:17 am

moonriver919

sorry!! i thought di 7/32 had the same meaning as de 7/32

3:17 am

moonriver919

i'm sorry!

3:18 am

Nef

di***: The worthiness of praise di**** his worth

3:18 am

SamanthaJoy

Actually, their origins as words are remarkably similar; one means to remove a st***, though, and the other actively means to st***.

3:18 am

jillibus

the little question marks don't seem to be working

3:18 am

edendaman

Miss ABS

Now just another reminder, make sure you are chatting in your MSN, this is not a chat, it is supposed to be babble related only.

5:50 am

amandacath

of course! Thanks Eva - that's the 9's taken care of then

5:51 am

edendaman

how do i change my name?

5:51 am

*kathy*

you dont

5:51 am

Eva

students-there are all kinds of people who lurk around sites like this. It's not safe to give out so much personal information when you don't know who is listening

5:51 am

edendaman

:S

5:51 am

*kathy*

ok, my bad

5:51 am

Miss ABS

Also, you should probably all continue playing from our classroom name (the one I'm using at the moment) and only at school so you're not flooding this place.

5:51 am

gramma

Good morning every1! I don't have alot of time today. But lo and behold, I entered a word or two and now I can't quit. I would've pansied out, but it's not a word!

5:53 am

Merk

Yes, hints for the 9s please.

5:53 am

*kathy*

6:33 am

mrpresident

LOL :))

6:33 am

*kathy*

105? man, i only have 8

6:34 am

Jera

Start with a negative prefix, end with a picnic insect... you only have to find the 3 middle letters... you can do it if I can!

6:34 am

Miss ABS

if you ever watch boxing Unicorn, the ring announcer might say that the champion is the undi*, undefeated heavy weight champion of the world... then the ending is a very small picnic creature.

6:35 am

mrpresident

Nice clue Miss ABS!

6:35 am

Miss ABS

so drop the "un" use the di word, and the picnic creature. LOL How's that for a more confusing clue!

6:35 am

Miss ABS

Thanks Mr P. Cracking myself up here.

6:35 am

Jera

Oooh, found a nice run of in's

6:35 am

Closing in on halfway... gotta break with 154 words... back in a bit after I get these people out of my house!

6:37 am

jess is cool l

ive only got 45 words

6:37 am

Miss ABS

kathy your best bet would be to stick to small words for now until you're more familiar with the game. There are many many many 4 letter words that you will know. Try getting those first, that will help you lots. Once you understand a bit more about how to play then move on to the bigger ones. That's the best clue I can give you at the moment.

6:37 am

mrpresident

jess, that is really good!

6:37 am

jess is cool l

ive only got 45 words

6:38 am

Sprite that was meant to read "I taught some of the kids how to read and translate Tolkien runes... and now (etc)."

6:44 am

sprite

Hehehe, that is funny! So you have to translate their messages yourself too ;)

6:45 am

Miss ABS

Yeah, but I've been doing it for a long time. My dad taught me when I was little tiny, so it's pretty easy now. It's quite cute really.

6:45 am

Miss ABS

Beast any luck on those tr9s? Want me to try and think of a clue?

6:45 am

Beast

thats something id love to learn and teach my daughter

6:45 am

Beast

yes please I am still stuck

6:46 am

sprite

Sure is. You must be a good teacher to get them motivated to do that.

6:46 am

Beast

i have the tr9/54

6:46 am

Miss ABS

Well the one tr9 is a nicer name for a "tramp" and the other is a longer version of the tr7/28

6:49 am

Miss ABS

okay the tr9/60 is the past tense of the tr7/28. If you're in between two places and you're travelling you're in tr7/28.

6:49 am

Beast

yeay i got it finally

6:49 am

Beast

thats all the 9's

6:49 am

Good morning Angel, and you're right, it's a very good one.

Hi angel! Bye MrP!

It is a great grid :)

6:54 am

musicmom

Good morning. I'm going to attempt this biggie. What are a few ranking points if I don't finish?

6:54 am

sprite

musicmom, never mind the rankings, just have fun :)

6:55 am

Miss ABS

I've been so short on time lately I haven't even looked at my rating. I'm sure I'm so far down the list I'd be embarrassed for myself if I did.

6:55 am

musicmom

I have a competition with myself to keep my cream ranking above 1000. It's an obsessive compulsive thing.

6:56 am

sprite

Almost never check the rankings. Just play for fun.

6:56 am

musicmom

I don't care where anyone else is- it is just that number at the top for me :-=))

6:56 am

sprite

:)

6:57 am

Steelblue

I like helping all you other people getting better rankings watch give up early on this beast

6:57 am

Miss ABS

Good way to be musicmom.

6:58 am

Miss ABS

Well I think I might take off for the night. I'm getting a bit sleepy, and I still have to do a bit of school prep work...

6:58 am

Miss ABS

Good night all. Beast are you teaching tomorrow? Will I see you?

6:58 am

7:00 am

I think 'jelp' is nice. To yelp for help. Works for me.

7:01 am

Unicorn

destant

7:01 am

Unicorn

oopss so sorry

7:02 am

"destant" was not found in the dictionary

7:02 am

Unicorn

i know taht's what makes it worse sorry

7:02 am

sprite

:D

7:03 am

musicmom

LOL Unicorn. That's how I feel too --- now they know what I was monkey typing.

7:04 am

Unicorn

we all have our days!

7:05 am

sprite

Nah, as if we don't all try funny words. I think "destant" is less monkeytyping than "estan". Which I just tried.

7:05 am

musicmom

:-)) Degrees of monkeying.

7:06 am

Uneaixoise

my phantom words today . . . tank, stank

7:06 am

Unicorn

aqt least if i could have picked one of the words to type here it was one that was close to something instead of some of my other words...

7:06 am

Uneaixoise

tane

7:06 am

Uneaixoise

oops

7:06 am

musicmom

the other thing I do that drives me crazy is say in the log that a real word won't work when it will. I've started typing them three or four times to check now.

7:06 am

bluephlox

i love phantom words.

7:07 am

Unicorn

mine are rugs and duty

7:07 am

Uneaixoise

7:08 am

7:10 am

sprite

Same here :)

7:11 am

bluephlox

7:13 am

7:13 am

sprite

bluephlox

7:13 am

Layne

Umm, okay, Uneaixoise and Sprite. Thanks for the encouragement. (whimper)

7:14 am

musicmom

7:14 am

abe79

7:14 am

Layne

7:14 am

sprite

That's the spirit, Layne!

7:15 am

abe79

well, i'll be here all day to offer encouragement/ exchange hints/ etc. we can do it!

7:15 am

sprite

Why not 'tanga'? Like in tanga slip?

7:16 am

Layne

Uneaixoise, you know about Community Coffee!

7:16 am

bluephlox

7:16 am

Uneaixoise

7:17 am

Aloyisius

Howdy, All... looks like a "biggee" today.. my coffee is ready, hope the brain is in gear..

7:17 am

Uneaixoise

off to grab first cuppa du jour

7:17 am

amandacath

Sprite, I think tanga is a made-up English word - probably by a German advertising company. They really love to do that

7:18 am

Aloyisius

rape

7:18 am

sprite

Must be it, amanda. It is 'thong', right?

7:18 am

bluephlox

totally. silly dictionary doesn't know what a real word is:)

7:18 am

Aloyisius

oh, so sorry...

7:18 am

musicmom

My coffee is too weak

7:18 am

sprite

Now now Aloyisius, no thank you, not today ;)

7:18 am

Aloyisius

LOL, sprite..

7:19 am

amandacath

I think so - they came into style after I'd already moved here, so I'm not really sure what they call them in the US (happens to me alot)

7:20 am

sprite

Where do you live now?

7:20 am

emusing

Hi! I am still pretty new here, so, does a 300+ puzzle mean it is harder to get fireworks than yesterday's 131 word puzzle?

7:20 am

amandacath

I'm in Hamburg

7:21 am

SueMagee

Pansied really should be a word and I'm tired of typing PANSY.

7:21 am

Praes

emsuing, depending on hard you want to work for it

7:21 am

saphyre

not always emsuing ... it depends on how strange the words are

7:21 am

musicmom

emsuing - not necessarily harder --- there are just more words to find

7:21 am

sprite

Hi emsuing, not necessarily harder, but it will take longer.

7:21 am

Unicorn

means there are more possible words

7:21 am

emusing

ok, thanks!

7:21 am

Atalante

just been napping and was sure in my dreams that colloid was acceptable in the grid

7:21 am

sprite

I agree, SueMagee :)

7:22 am

SueMagee

Thank you Sprite. I was beginning to think it was me!

7:22 am

sprite

Wow, now that is a phantom word that I haven't tried in this grid, Ata :)

7:22 am

Atalante

perhaps I should try it, just in case ...!

7:23 am

Atalante

unsurprisingly, no ... LOL

7:24 am

amandacath

ok, I give up - need one of the in7/32's - got the, ummm, burying? one...

7:24 am

Let's see, and what if I try... nope, no luck ;)

matty, they are japanese writing symbols for foreign words, so you were close :)

7:48 am

Babbledude

is it the same as forms or linked moves in martial arts Sprite

7:50 am

sprite

Babbledude: I think those are the same as the sword-like one. The script one is with the other consonant in the middle.

7:50 am

Atalante

I'm starting to think that no more words exist now ...

Hey, my favorite P-word is in this grid :D

8:04 am

8:05 am

sprite

And when your car tells you to take a hike...

8:05 am

8:05 am

jbp

8:06 am

Unicorn

hurshy

9:42 am

Atalante

we had it in a recent grid, amanda

9:42 am

sprite

Hey hurshy! Sure, if possible, that would be fun!

9:42 am

amandacath

Ah, yes, of course, silly me for not knowing *that* word! Got it from abe's clue - would never have even monkeyed that one!

9:42 am

hurshy

do you live in amsterdam? or how far out of it?

9:43 am

sprite

amanda: it's alt. spelling, usually spelled with double O. :)

9:43 am

bex777

hiya everyone!!

9:43 am

sprite

Rather close to Amsterdam, about 20 minute's drive.

9:43 am

amandacath

Hi Hursh! That must have been on one of those days I couldn't access the site, or, more likely, I'd forgotten it.

9:44 am

mattygroves

My phantom word is tapas.

9:44 am

abe79

hi bex

9:44 am

Atalante

thats not phantom, matty ...

9:44 am

sprite

matty: nothing phantom about it :)

9:45 am

hurshy

so... maybe we could have lunch at a restaurant or something? just tell me a time and place and i'll be there :)

9:45 am

pabtrek

not a phantom matty

9:45 am

Golux13

bah... "depants" and "pantsed" are not in the dictionary.

9:45 am

Marisun

hello, last night I tried my first grid. This game is highly addictive. Started this grid immediately but found my self asleep in the chair at 3 am.

9:46 am

abe79

welcome to the jungle, marisun!

9:46 am

sprite

hurshy: my email is in my profile, please send me an email and we see what we can do :)

9:46 am

hurshy

ok :)

9:46 am

Egregious Jones

odd, golux. what, then, is the word for taking off someone else's pants?

9:46 am

sprite

Sounds like a new addict to me, Marisun, LOL! Welcome to the madness and don't worry, most grids aren't 300+ words.

9:46 am

Unicorn

welcome to the play

9:48 am

disneyjessi

how many words????? :0

9:48 am

amandacath

2 ta6/18's?

9:48 am

abe79

326 disneyjessi

9:49 am

disneyjessi

oh cheese and crackers...thanks...i think i've just been scared away

9:49 am

Unicorn

it's not that bad

9:49 am

sprite

Ta6/18: narrow band or ribbon for the hair that was worn in ancient Greece AND heir apparent to an ancient Celtic chief, elected during the chief's lifetime.

9:50 am

sprite

disneyjessi: it is a nice grid really, lots and lots of common words. Just jump in :)

9:50 am

abe79

its a nice board, disneyjessi, just, full

9:50 am

disneyjessi

i don't know i see that k in the corner ;)

9:51 am

hurshy

ok sprite i sent you a message :)

9:51 am

sprite

I am with you, disneyjessi, all the way. Darn Ks. But to be honest, these Ks aren't the worst.

9:51 am

saphyre

9:51 am

sprite

Great hurshy!

9:51 am

abe79

bye saphyre

9:52 am

Marisun

how do you all get so many so quickly, the 'enable dictionary' what is that?

9:53 am

amandacath

hmmmm, it's nice to know the definitions, Sprite, but they're not helping (although the Celtic one rings a bell, just not loud enough)

9:53 am

sprite

Doing it often, Marisun, that's the whole trick. The more you play, the more words you will recognise right away. And the enable dictionary is the dictionary used for this game, only words that are in that dictionary are valid. It is a VERY stupid dictionary. :)

9:53 am

movieman

Marisun - the enable dictionary is the list of words that are acceptable in the game of Babble.....

9:53 am

FMitch

Marisun - lot of people from all over the world, so some poeple ar ejust starting whilstothers are already finished.

Afternoon all

10:02 am

sprite

jbp: ag7 = related on or descended from the father's or male side, akin.

10:02 am

Uneaixoise

ag7/36 is plural of ag6/23

10:02 am

Uneaixoise

ag6/24, sorry

10:02 am

jbp

up+sounds like smell

10:02 am

Minski

up6/24 = up + what you did to a letter

10:03 am

movieman

up6/24 - up+past participle of send.....

10:03 am

jbp

duh, thanks Une

10:03 am

amandacath

Ok, I think I'm in trouble. I'm at 325 and can't find what I'm missing. Anyone know if maybe lickety's list has a bug in it?

10:03 am

JaiKnut

Okay, I have that "up", what one am I missing?

10:03 am

Minski

Sorry. The grid says 326 words total.

10:04 am

Minski

I'm also missing a UP6/27. It's the 2nd to last UP word.

10:04 am

Uneaixoise

do you have up + si4/5?

10:04 am

jbp

there's an up++++ to knowing a bunch of good words

10:04 am

JaiKnut

10:04 am

Uneaixoise

and up + te4/4?

10:04 am

Minski

10:05 am

Minski

10:05 am

JaiKnut

10:05 am

abe79

amanda, do you want to count up the s's and p's and we'll check and see if you have all of those?

10:06 am

Uneaixoise

jpb there's the perennial ag4/ that's a lab culture medium

10:06 am

amandacath

I'm recounting again - will let you know as soon as I've figured it out ... or haven't figured it out and will scream for help!

10:07 am

sprite

I am down to 7, so I can help too in a few minutes. I hope.

10:09 am

jbp

ah that ag 4 is like the lead singer of Van Halen

10:09 am

jbp

now, for the clue on the si 6/27?

10:09 am

jbp

thanks Une

10:10 am

abe79

10:10 am

jbp

got 'em, thanks ABe

10:11 am

abe79

yw jbp, thanks for the van halen

10:11 am

Uneaixoise

jbp

crayola crayon middle reddish brown color

10:12 am

10:12 am

sprite

I don't think I have an Si6/27.

10:12 am

sprite

amanda: the one with all the vowels perhaps?

10:12 am

Uneaixoise

according to lickety, there's isn't an si6/27

10:13 am

amandacath

10:13 am

jbp

10:13 am

sprite

I have all the S's and no Si6/27 amongst them.

10:14 am

sprite

Now 2 more Ts for me...

10:15 am

amandacath

too funny jbp - the crayola crayon was the clue I was going to use for that word, should anyone need it (while I was not manically counting words)

10:15 am

jbp

the first an 5/10 i have is the licorice like one

10:15 am

jbp

is there one before it?

10:15 am

jbp

great minds, amandacath!

10:16 am

Uneaixoise

10:16 am

amandacath

10:20 am

sprite

Break a leg, amanda :)

10:20 am

jbp

no whistling backstage... hey what part are u in the play?

10:20 am

I think it's my favorite pratchett novel

10:20 am

amandacath

10:21 am

jbp

nuh-uh! break a leg

10:21 am

congrats on finishing sprite! (was away from desk) bye une!

10:22 am

jrh402s

Pratchett is great

10:23 am

Uncagain

one nice thing about a grid like this, no matter where you look, you find something

10:23 am

Munner

Ah, the magic halfway number. List, here I come.

10:23 am

amandacath

it's the standard reply, jbp - I'm Nanny Ogg, with a hilariously large butt!

10:24 am

jbp

as if nanny Ogg would have any other kind!

10:25 am

jrh402s

I missed part of this conversation, Amanda, but Is there any singing? Is it still a family show?

10:25 am

jrh402s

I'd love to see Nanny Ogg sing

10:26 am

jbp

well, you'll have to let us see pix at some point! and how long of a run is it?

10:26 am

mattygroves

Oooh - I love Pratchett - which one are you doing?

10:26 am

Golux13

man, i really want SAPIENT to be in this puzzle...

10:26 am

amandacath

nope, no singing and we've kept it fairly clean - as clean as Pratchett is, anyway. Nanny Ogg singing, hmmmmm - not sure that's something we want to subject our audience to!

10:27 am

jrh402s

I like the one about the wizard's staff with the knob on the end.

10:27 am

jrh402s

Ah well, the world might not be ready for a Pratchett musical

10:28 am

amandacath

Wyrd Sisters - hopefully someone will put some pix in the net, I'll let you know

10:30 am

mattygroves

And the hedgehog song...

10:32 am

amandacath

Actually, now that you mention it, I *do* remember the director asking me to sing something somewhere in the play - I'd forgotten about that, and evidently he did too since he hasn't said anything...(let's hope)

10:32 am

jrh402s

Aw, don't be wussy. Nanny Ogg can only be best portrayed when she's singing

10:33 am

mattygroves

And singing badly.

10:33 am

jrh402s

plus, it'll be a great moment to dance and shake her large backside

10:34 am

amandacath

When you see the butt and the boobs they've put on me, you won't be calling me wussy! On the other hand, shaking that butt is quite fun...

10:35 am

Uncagain

hey, stumbled on to the tr9/60

10:36 am

Marisun

clue please for tr9/60

10:36 am

jbp

i like all the pratchett's that feature Death, and by association, the Death of Rats....

10:37 am

Uncagain

its off the tr7/28. From the movie Casablanca. The letter of tr***** and then add what they did with them

10:37 am

jbp

ni4/4?

10:38 am

CadFan

off spelling of the dark time of day

10:38 am

Uncagain

sorry if the clue is obscure, but I dont get many chances to reference Casablance

10:39 am

Marisun

I havent seen casablanca, lol

10:39 am

jrh402s

I feel guilty about not seeing casablanca

10:39 am

Uncagain

hmm, that makes it harder, let me think a sec

10:39 am

jbp

sorry i meant ni4/5, not the one that's n+middle of march

10:39 am

amandacath

Ok, I'm off - I'm sure I'll have funny stories to tell tomorrow!

10:39 am

jbp

tr+indef article (2 letters) plus not stand

10:40 am

jbp

have fun amandacath!!

10:40 am

Uncagain

lol, exactly what i was going to write

10:40 am

jrh402s

break a leg!

10:40 am

jbp

MARISUN, get thee to a video store or join netflix!!!!!!!!!!!!

10:40 am

CadFan

just change the vowel at the end from from N+ middle of march (singular)

10:40 am

mattygroves

ag6/24 (not the one with the ga4/6 in it that means an entry) and the ag7/36?

10:41 am

Uncagain

well, off to teach bowling, back later

10:41 am

jrh402s

Matt: means godly love or wide open.

10:41 am

jbp

i feel so ni++ for asking for that clue

10:41 am

Marisun

lol jbp, I will get right on it. I have the whole summer

10:42 am

Golux13

same as the ag5/14, but with an extra consonant in it. Ag + a man's name, if that helps... and then the ag7 is plural

10:42 am

jbp

matty --it's like the ag5/14, but with a nasal sound inthe middle

10:42 am

jbp

thanks CadFan

10:43 am

mattygroves

Thanks jpb!

10:47 am

jbp

glad to help

11:11 am

melonheadjujube

ohhhhhhhhh, so trannies was on the grid but not in the dictionary - it had nothing to do with Ann Coulter - her adam's apple notwithstanding.....

11:11 am

Aloyisius

I'm so bad, it makes me chat-shy.. is that a word? Oh, it's hyphenated anyway..

11:12 am

jrh402s

That's not an adam's apple!

11:12 am

Aloyisius

at + not a woman

11:13 am

melonheadjujube

Aloyisious it's too high up for a monoboob

11:13 am

jrh402s

That lump in her throat is her remorse for defending McCarthyism. Or it's cancer. either way you should feel bad.

11:13 am

72 Temple Owl

ty for showing me there IS an m in this gird- LOL!

11:14 am

Minski

Does anyone have the 1st TE5/12? The one immediately between the 2 TE5/10s? Please?

11:15 am

melonheadjujube

11:15 am

72 Temple Owl

well has anyone clued the large wrods today?

11:15 am

Aloyisius

I heard that ma comes from heaven...

11:16 am

jrh402s

probably not that bad, she seems to enjoy the attention. unless it's cancer, then you should feel really bad

11:16 am

Aloyisius

but maybe it comes out of the ground after a tuber is mashed up?

11:17 am

melonheadjujube

actually, i never watch her - i pulled the adam's apple remark out of thin air - i would bever wish ill health on her - hemmorhoids, maybe.

11:18 am

chic

Hey temple and all!

11:18 am

jrh402s

she really is kind of mannish. However, the cancer joke is kind of the thing in my family right now. Both my parents have it and comedy is the family defense.

11:18 am

jrh402s

-a little explanation for my garishness if someone was offended. :)

11:19 am

11:56 am

Merk

Duh! I didn't think we could use names.

11:57 am

jrh402s

how about st/8 - a pool of water without motion will slowly do this. St/9 is when it did it in the past.

11:57 am

esquian

lol....I don't know if she really knows. She likes it when she gets there, because it's all about her.

11:57 am

esquian

It will be fun this week, since she's walking a little now

11:57 am

11:59 am

Merk

11:59 am

Douglas

In The Fantastics, El Gallo says "Now I know you prefer abduction but the proper word is ****! It's short and businesslike!"

11:59 am

MaryGrace

So R is telling people about it?

11:59 am

esquian

apparently he talks to nephew 2 about it; M says R wants the cc job more than city leader

12:00 pm

stidmama

I have 230 left. good thing my back is hurting so I am not able to work in the garden.... :-(

12:00 pm

esquian

who knows, though. i don't think r is completely honest about anything until after the fact; doesn't want to want something and have everyone see him not get it

12:00 pm

72 Temple Owl

stid: why oh why did i start this one?

12:00 pm

MaryGrace

...so that he can prove that they were so wrong before not to pick him...

12:01 pm

Douglas

Jesus said to the Pharisees, "Blind guides! You strain out a **** and swallow a camel!"

12:01 pm

Douglas

By the way, what is the icon theme for today?

stidmama

12:10 pm

helenkeller

i did the sudoku, saw it was 'easy' & it might have been, but seems i have not yet engaged my brain today, even though i have already dealt with leaky sink, toilet & plumber (all better now!!!), but easy sudoku - just way beyond me - took over 1/2 an hour

12:10 pm

MaryGrace

She will stay, with cautious pessimism.

12:10 pm

helenkeller

i just might as well go straight to the list here, lol

12:11 pm

esquian

12:11 pm

helenkeller

i have 195 left

12:11 pm

MaryGrace

I am for sure. Asked for confirmation from the G's today. What is our mission this time?

12:11 pm

stidmama

I just don't do the sudoku -- I know how, and am sometimes successful, but I find it tedious. besides, this takes up enough time!

12:11 pm

helenkeller

lol stid, you are a wise one!

12:12 pm

MaryGrace

Do I need to bring Lady Drill?

12:12 pm

stidmama

12:15 pm

Angelsong

I'm having a wonderful time with this grid. it is awesome.

12:16 pm

esquian

That would ROCK, but how long are you staying?

12:16 pm

esquian

That room is just a MESSSSSS

12:16 pm

esquian

but I think it is a great opportunity

12:16 pm

stidmama

12:17 pm

stidmama

I was referring to what happens when I wear ANYTHING white! LOL I just can't keep 'em clean... (I got the word you meant though...)

12:17 pm

MaryGrace

We could do it in 2 days, I am confident of it. What's the budget?

12:18 pm

abe79

lol stidmama. i'm the same way. although, i did wear a new white shirt the other day while making stuffed shells with sauce...very brave

12:18 pm

stidmama

hi marisun! I keep wanting to type marisol...

12:18 pm

esquian

$100....just kidding....I'd have to work it out. Do you think we could do it with $250? I would love to do some shelves and some "wood" flooring (pergo or something)

12:18 pm

stidmama

extremely brave, abe! I need full grubby gear to do things like that.

12:19 pm

esquian

what are your ideas?

12:19 pm

helenkeller

12:20 pm

stidmama

esquian, sorry to eavesdrop, but sometimes you can get pergo-like flooring cheaply at home centers -- if part of a box was damaged or something. Depending on how big your space is, that might be an option...

12:20 pm

stidmama

12:31 pm

MaryGrace

12:31 pm

stidmama

Is there a clue for the st8/40 please?

12:33 pm

musicmom

Good afternoon. BAck for my last 139. I'm having a terrible time with the tr 8. I understand the definition but am not putting the right letter combo together.

12:34 pm

musicmom

I have the 9.

12:34 pm

stidmama

hi musicmom! how's summer vacation today?

12:34 pm

MaryGrace

yes, it grew stuff on it like kudzu...my mouth is watering to get in there.

12:34 pm

musicmom

Not too bad. The girls helped me clean my classroom today and now we are filling the swimming pool. Once it is filled my life will get a lot calmer

12:35 pm

Merk

I have the st 8 and 9 from up above, the bad water. I need the st8/40 further down just before the thing in the night sky.

12:35 pm

musicmom

I can sit on the porch and babble while they play

12:35 pm

abe79

tr8- across + beginning of ninth month

12:35 pm

wassup

hey, i'll be back later. molly's here

12:35 pm

stidmama

the first tr 9 is the person who has no fixed address. the second is past tense of tr 7/28 which is to travel or cross...

12:35 pm

GreyWoulf

dsp0705 -- there is now a new list to use -- click on Lickety's Babble Clues in the Friends of Babble and you will find a current list. BrandyJacks schedule shifted and so Lickety stepped up to fill the void.

12:35 pm

stidmama

later wassup!

12:35 pm

stidmama

hi Woulf!

12:35 pm

musicmom

merk - st8 a man's name+ not day

12:35 pm

stidmama

12:36 pm

MaryGrace

Maybe that picture takes the place of your man head! : )

12:36 pm

GreyWoulf

hi stid -- I was debating joining in since my break is so short, but no one was answering dsp

12:36 pm

musicmom

THANK YOU THANK YOU!! I got it!!!!

12:36 pm

esquian

lol....yes, that is what the inside of my head feels like at times.... We did do some stuff in our room this week, though, and it looks pretty darn good

12:36 pm

stidmama

I didn't see dsp's post... the log moves so fast these days it's hard to keep up.

12:36 pm

musicmom

I don't think i would have ever done that combination

12:36 pm

GreyWoulf

I usually lurk while hunting during my break, but this monster is too much for me to start today

12:37 pm

musicmom

it is definitely a hefty one today Grey!

12:37 pm

stidmama

this is a big grid, for sure!

12:37 pm

Merk

Thanks much, Mary Grace

12:37 pm

GreyWoulf

I tend to pick and choose my grids lately, I like to at least have the illusion of finishing before I start

12:37 pm

GreyWoulf

Yesterday's caught me off guard -- I gave up to play Literati with 55 left to find

12:38 pm

tndaisy1960

hi GW:)

12:38 pm

GreyWoulf

Hi musicmom and daisy!!

12:38 pm

musicmom

Yesterday's was a lot harder than it seemed at the onset

12:38 pm

musicmom

Hi GW - I've been picking and choosing play and chat time too

12:38 pm

stidmama

sounds like a reasonable decision to me, Woulf! Literati is more immediately satisfying, I think.

12:39 pm

GreyWoulf

Indeed it was, mm, but I had fun while I was hunting and stopped before the frustration factor ruined the fun

12:39 pm

tndaisy1960

yes it is Stid

12:39 pm

MaryGrace

can't wait to see it and see you and all the fam.

12:39 pm

musicmom

That is always a good idea GW

12:39 pm

GreyWoulf

Lit is also is a much easier forum in which to have a discussion with a select few, stid :)

12:40 pm

stidmama

I want to get halfway before taking a break from the grid. I need about 30 more words.

12:40 pm

musicmom

I have never played literati

12:40 pm

Haz1558

Good afternoon/evening all. I only had time to get a few words this morning, so there's a lot of catching up to do.

12:40 pm

tndaisy1960

oh MM! you'd love it!

12:40 pm

musicmom

Hi Haz Come join the fun

12:40 pm

stidmama

yes, Literati is definitely "cozier" :-)

12:40 pm

stidmama

hi Haz!

12:40 pm

musicmom

I'll have to check it out. How do I do it?

12:41 pm

Haz1558

I may not finish, but am ready to do what I can!

12:41 pm

GreyWoulf

That's the spirit, Haz!!

12:41 pm

abe79

hi haz!

12:41 pm

musicmom

not sure I'll finish either but there are some fun twists in this one

12:42 pm

stidmama

Literati is on Yahoo games. if you have a yahoo ID, we could set up a "table" and invite you in. unfortunately, there are WAY more trolls in the Literati open tables than we ever get here...

12:42 pm

movieman

Hiya, Haz!!!!!!!

{{{{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}}}

12:42 pm

GreyWoulf

that's why I lurk on big days -- I still try to find the words, just don't spend the energy to type

12:42 pm

tndaisy1960

*reaches for troll repellent*

12:42 pm

musicmom

I do have a yahoo id. I think it is musicmom110. I need to double check

Okay this one is too big --- going to use the list in earnest

12:43 pm

GreyWoulf

But I am gonna go for now --

dsp -- welcome back and as always, don't hesitate to ask for help -- these are some of the best people around!!

12:43 pm

stidmama

Woulf, will you be on later for Literati then?

12:44 pm

GreyWoulf

12:44 pm

stidmama

see you later, GW!

12:44 pm

dsp0705

Thanks grey woulf, but this puzzle is way too big for me today

12:44 pm

GreyWoulf

I am gonna do my level best, stid -- I already promised daisy a seat ;)

12:44 pm

musicmom

Bye GW - have a good afternoon

12:44 pm

12:44 pm

tndaisy1960

I'll be ready!

Douglas

"I was once an exceedingly odd young lady--
Suffering much from spleen and vapours.
Clergymen thought my conduct shady--
She didn't spend much upon linen-drapers.
It certainly entertained the ****rs.
My ways were strange Beyond all range--
Paragraphs got into all the papers."

12:44 pm

deef

di 9?

12:45 pm

stidmama

musicmom, when you are ready to try Literati, let us know!

12:45 pm

musicmom

I will Stid

12:45 pm

Douglas

That was Sir Despard and Mad Margaret's duet from Ruddigore

12:45 pm

musicmom

That is always wonderful GW

12:45 pm

stidmama

di 9 was clued as one who argues... holler if you need more

12:45 pm

tndaisy1960

I'll leave my IM up if anybody wants me.

12:46 pm

stidmama

thank you Douglas, Ruddigore is one of the ones I haven't seen or read yet!

12:46 pm

musicmom

Hey stid - if I go there is there anyway to know if any of you all are on?

12:46 pm

deef

thx stid!

12:46 pm

stidmama

I have the same screen name on Yahoo -- the best way might be to IM one of us or see if we're here and just ask...

12:47 pm

MaryGrace

One of the floor, one of the ceiling and and one directly of the wall facing the w/d would help.

12:47 pm

musicmom

okay - tomorrow we don't have anywhere to go ---- day or night. May check that out

12:48 pm

stidmama

okay, let me know! :-)

12:48 pm

12:58 pm

musicmom

grace di 9 === when some one disagrees with a will the di7 (not in the grid) it. They are the di9

12:58 pm

The same prefix as the di9, and then what you do with a comb to make half of your hair go one way and the other half the other way

2:51 pm

stidmama

2:55 pm

Eva

Can I just whine for a minute about the weather? We are all turning pasty white (at least those of us who are caucasian)...everything smells of mildew, and when the sun does come out for a few minutes we all peer at it like moles who have lost the abilitiy to process sunlight. Whimper, grizzle, piddle, winge, moan, complain, complain, complain. Okay, I know there are people in the world with real problems much greater than a lot of rain, so I'll stop now.

2:56 pm

Minski

Eva - you must live in the northeast. we are also white here.

2:56 pm

2:57 pm

Haz1558

Eva - living in a country that sees a lot of rain, I sympathise. But the sun will come out, eventually.

2:57 pm

stidmama

Eva, sounds like a normal Spring in the Pac NW! LOL just don't forget to put on sunscreen when the sun finally does make an appearance. Can always tell a northwesterner by the sunburn the second day of vacation...

2:57 pm

pabtrek

I am totally missing all the a's, and i've been monkeytyping my fingers sore

2:57 pm

2:58 pm

Uneaixoise

apparently Nashville is hermetically sealed--we got a little rain a few days ago--when my mom who's only an hour away got THREE INCHES!

2:59 pm

Eva

It's one of the few things I miss about not living in Boston any more...just about everyone here is white, and mostly Yankee. In Bosston my neighborhood was half Spanish speaking, and then a wonderful rich palate of colors, foods, languages, musics. I miss it a lot, but not enough to move back to the city. But when we moved to Vermont I didn't think I was moving to a semi-tropical region with a monsoon season

I have come to the conclusion God only wants me to Babble. My washing machine totally died Monday morning, a belt broke on the mower after only 3 or 4 passes (I had one of my sisters come out and adjust the seat for me 'cuz of my wrist). So here I am.

4:05 pm

Aloyisius

oh brother, when it rains, it pours. Trouble supposedly comes in threes, so that should just about do it for you... I hope. Hey, meanwhile you have the right attitude... babble on!!!

4:05 pm

broll

lol helen

4:05 pm

Haz1558

But daisy - you'd have had to learn an awful lot of languages to cover the words that occur in babble!

4:05 pm

tndaisy1960

I'd settle for Spanish and Dutch, actually....

4:07 pm

Aloyisius

Time to scoot... good luck, all..

FranMag

4:56 pm

helenkeller

oggy, a pair of pumps in a taupe that's close to your skin color will match with anything.

4:57 pm

helenkeller

Just to say hello/goodnight. I've been working on this, on and off, all day, but never at any time thought I would finish. I've managed 176 (150 short) but that will do for this one.

stidmama

7:45 pm

JaiKnut

Hi everyone. Lying in bed for my evening babble session, listening to the pouring rain. At this time of night, all tucked in, I actually love the sound of the rain.

8:03 pm

pwinn

Anders, think of industrial leaders, like a steel mag****, but without the leading 'm'. Singular and plural

8:03 pm

Layne

Hello, evening babblers. Does anyone have a clue for the pu 4/6 -- not the one that means to place something? Thanks!

8:03 pm

Eva

I hope it will featherbee!

8:03 pm

stidmama

8:03 pm

featherbee

fran, you're a lifesaver here

8:03 pm

Jacula

Eva - I'm not singing that old song 'Listen to the pouring rain, listen to it pour, and with every drop that falls I love you more...' Can't remember who did it. Back in 60s, I think.

8:03 pm

FranMag

go stid!!

8:03 pm

godthaab

Being a Canadian, even I know that N. Hale was a captain in the American Revolution. Some considered him to be a spy.

8:03 pm

I'm enjoying the sound of rain in MA, too, Eva :)

8:04 pm

Jacula

8:04 pm

eva, if you have the st 8 tha means to slow down severely, or become stuck, take the first two letters off that for your other ag 6/24

8:04 pm

anders

pwinn, many thanks! those blasted ags drove me crazy!

8:04 pm

pwinn

Godthaab, I think I was taught that he was a spy, in fact. But a hero, since we won.

8:04 pm

BGL

Help! This is probably a fish word, but... I need the de4/5 between "one who believes in god(s)" and what you get in your car. Please.

Jacula

Jai - last sn5/12 - nasty comment, sneaky.

8:08 pm

Eva

very funny-thought that Fran's poop update was a clue re Jai's request for a clue and I sijmply couldn't figure out what the connection was.

8:08 pm

Minski

Does anyone have the GA6/24? It's the 1st GA6 and the 6th GA word. Thanks.

8:08 pm

JaiKnut

LOLOL

8:09 pm

pwinn

Minski, like the red stone, but with a double-consonant in middle, instead of two different ones.

8:09 pm

Jacula

Franmag - if that's new baby poop, I do hope you don't wear glasses. I remember my son, after he'd done a particularly sticky and nasty nappy, grabbing my specs and putting them in the yuck. I was blind and stunned.

8:09 pm

Layne

Minski, the GA 6/24 is the name of a chain of newspapers in the US.

8:09 pm

Eva

ga6/24-the one I have is a kind of bird....llike a red gemstone with an extra n instead of an r. Is that the one you mean?

8:09 pm

featherbee

how is the ma 4/5 not a pronoun?

8:10 pm

Kenny Chuck

Thanks guys. That was the word I needed. Now the Gs are greyed out.

Sarah's open gym ran over time and so I had to sit around the gym waiting on her.

Music Mom - I must post my quiche recipe on BabAnon for you.

8:15 pm

Hurshy~ what t 6 do you need?

8:15 pm

oh, no, still need the last two. i somehow always have a brain block with the vowel words

8:15 pm

musicmom

Just not sure I can focus in for the last 62.

8:15 pm

what do you need hursh?

8:15 pm

Jacula

Okay, will do, Hursh.

8:16 pm

BGL

Just hang out for awhile with us, musicmom!

8:16 pm

musicmom

That would be wonderful Jac. This one sounded good and easy but it just wasn't easy. it was very tasty but by the time it was done we were TOO starving to enjoy.

8:16 pm

musicmom

8:16 pm

FranMag

feather, didn't know you had a toddler! the in7/28 is immediate, as in in7/28 pudding

8:17 pm

hurshy

i don't know what i need, that is the peril of listlessness. but with 6 to go i can't bail now.

8:17 pm

Eva

hurshy-do you have the p6/21 that is like the color that gathers on aged metal, but with an s at the end instead of an a? Then there is also the color itself, with the a, and another exactly the same but endingt with an e. Then there is the pa6/21 that is a kind of leather or what you get to protect and invention.

8:17 pm

Jacula

MusicMom - do you prefer to make your own pastry or to use frozen shortcrust?

8:17 pm

nrkii

sp 5/16 is s + p4/7 meaning a sharp pain

8:17 pm

FranMag

last in is in6/18, in + **** light, **** bright

8:17 pm

then there's also the pt6/21

8:18 pm

featherbee

yay, I box grayed out! thanks so much fran!

8:18 pm

Jacula

Shortcurst is quick, easy and cheaper than using frozen. Flakey pastries are a little more time consuming. Mind you, the handmade are nicer than the bought sort.

8:18 pm

FranMag

it's not ptooey hurshy, tried that one though!

8:18 pm

FranMag

yw featherbee!

8:18 pm

Eva

the pt6/21 is an odd one. There was a definition way back when, but I think it is somehow related to the french word tissane-some sort of herbal infusion

8:19 pm

featherbee

69 left *plods on*

8:19 pm

hurshy

why thank you eva, that is lovely

8:19 pm

Jacula

pt6 has to do with fruit teas, same kind of word, but is about a cold drink.

things are getting very wonky with my connection again. When someone asked for a clue for the di7/36 I scrolled to where it should have been on my list and discovered that all of my d's and 'es had disappeared. had several goes at refreshing before it all came back.

8:28 pm

Jacula

What DOES irk me is when we get a pile of kids in here bandying grid words about in the chatlog, or worse, those who just steam in a demand, 'GIVE ME WORDS!'. V. irritating!

8:28 pm

musicmom

I KNOW I have typed that a million times today.<G>

8:28 pm

hurshy

i agree jac :)

8:29 pm

musicmom

I agree jac. I hate the demanding clues thing

8:29 pm

nrkii

oh jac, you don't find them a bit... endearing?

8:29 pm

FranMag

jakawie, we use either the tile and word stats or lickety's list, you can find a link below

8:29 pm

pwinn

No.

8:29 pm

hurshy

so... who wants to clue me up on that third TR6 - as i said, i have a pl with no singular, and the person who ditches school.

Mind you, Hursh, a few days ago there were a number of Aussie schoolkids in here... one of the girls was talking about a guy she wanted to chat up. As she slowly realised the site is very public, she told her female friend, 'I just need to delete all of these messages now'. 'You've NO CHANCE! girl,' thought I. LOL.

Hmm, I think I would like to say how much I appreciate the way you have all given me so many clues since I have gotten addicted to this

Some people like to get the list right off, others, like me, prefer not to use it until they are at least just over 3/4's way through grid, and not even then sometimes. Ohters, try not to use it at all. As the Status Quo song goes... 'Whatever you want.....'

8:51 pm

oops i must be missing a 5/12 too. back into the grid

8:51 pm

8:52 pm

SMF if you have the pa6 that means the finish on something just cut off the vowel

9:17 pm

I am thinking that many young people enter the military as screw-ups and exit as strong and capable people. On the other hand, some intelligent, sensitive people enter the military and come out twisted or at least broken. My father was Air Force, I was Navy, my brother was Coast Guard. I was injured in Basic Training and sent home. My father retired. My brother was in for several years and left an alcoholic... I don't recommend U.S. military service to many people.

Hi Stid--married to retiree, 20 years for him, I did 15 of them. Good life for us and kids, good retirement. Fortunately, he had some drive and goals. Not easy, but worth the effort in hindsight. I was a "good wife", not not a good "Navy wife"! Didn't go for the BS, but if he was willing to put up with it...

I didn't quite say that -- but a lot of people go into the military for the wrong reasons, or with unrealistic expectations. I wouldn't rely on recruiters for my information, I would ask people who are currently serving... and I would know in advance that it doesn't matter what you think you signed up for, you can be reassigned at any point.

Well, Stid, our military recruitment officers for RAF got it right back in the 70s when they refused me ex-hubby because they knew it wasn't what he wanted and he was just trying to follow in his father's footsteps.

9:23 pm

mom23

Recruiter tried to enlist younger daughter to become interpreter. Passed tests w/flying colors--but recruiter told her to lie re meds she was taking for headaches. Hubby had little chat w/him and suddenly he didn't think that lying was such a good idea--he was quickly transferred! That's part of where military gets black eye.
