BGL

Is your husband a solo pastor or is he on a staff?

BGL...just me as the only other staff and even that is new (part time). Small church, about 80 in our congregation, we're in North Seattle. Love what we do btw.
1:18 am
BGL

I understand the love. I usually look forward toe ach day of work, especially if it is a day I'm working with the children or youth. Ours is a small church to have 2 pastors (about 150 regualr worshippers). But they are committed to children and youth ministry.
1:18 am
kristinc

7:04 am
Eva

To those of you from the school-we welcome everyone, not matter what their ages....we'd lvoe to have you play with us. But a lot of us have been playing this game with each other for a long time and there are sort of informal "rules" about how to join in. We don't abbreviate, at least not much, because we love words and speaking proper english. We do often chat about non-babble things, to get to know each other and when we are stuck, but we do it knowing that it is not a private conversation, but includes everyone listening. And we try hard to be kind and polite.

It got a little ugly for a while, but for the most part it's not bad, just too much of it
7:12 am
Unicorn

at least Miss ABS was here yasterday
7:13 am
Eva

I think its just going to take them a little while and a little guidance in terms of learning how to apprpirately use the site. Then the ones who really enjoy playing will stick around and the others will go back to MSN
7:13 am

Yes, things are definitely better when she is on. Still it's too bad it has to be like that.
7:13 am

Does anyone have direct access to Miss ABS?
7:14 am

One of the teenagers was being rude! but they are gone!
Most of the kids are nice and need a little introduction to community chats, that's all! please have patience !!

She has asked me to give them warnings and I am now doing that.
7:16 am

...and abe! And Merk!
7:16 am
Eva

Thanks mrp! I guess the major guidelines I would offer are: 1) That except for very brief interchanges, this should not be used for one-on-one conversations 2) Regular English 3) Have some patience and spend time working on the grid themselves before asking for help

glad you enjoy them! I'm usually on babble but not every day cuz sometimes work gets busy...
11:48 am
nrkii

walnut, I went to the site you told me about, and then followed that path to another where someone is compiling a collection of Fibs to e-publish in the late summer ... I submitted two
11:48 am

YAY! nrkii
11:48 am
Minski

Well, it's smaller than yesterday's but still not a short list. How is it treating us today?
11:49 am
nrkii

Minski, not too bad today -- first 100 - 140 should come easy
11:49 am
boreetos

how is "dehearse" not a word? We used to dehearse all the time before plays. That's when you goof off back stage and forget your lines and blocking.
11:49 am
nrkii

nice boreetos :)
11:49 am
Minski

then
11:49 am
abe79

yay nrkii!
11:49 am

boreetos, it could also mean when they take the coffin out of the vehicle at the cemetery.
11:50 am

BRAVO nrkii
11:50 am

wow. thats cool nrkii. I'm more shy about my fibs....
11:50 am
nrkii

ah minski, I thought you were simply drawing out a thought :)
11:50 am
Erda

You could also come back to life and step out of the hearse -- dehearse.....
11:51 am
Erda

sorry about that
11:51 am
nrkii

or, you could convert an old funeral car to an everyday car (as I've seen people do), and that would be dehearse as well, right?
11:51 am
boreetos

that's true, that would be the second usage. "Ok, guys, time to dehearse the car, and then rehearse the ground."
11:51 am
Cherrypop

Kind of up there with de judge!
11:51 am
Layne

LOL, Erda.
11:51 am

11:52 am
musicmom

Hey BGL -- you want your nieces for the summer?
11:52 am
BGL

11:52 am
musicmom

I have past tense of craft fabric and a type of fox BGL
11:52 am
nrkii

bgl, one is when you apply soft fabric to a poker table, the table becomes FE****
11:53 am
musicmom

I just straightened up all the pillows on the couch. Turned around and Hannah had thrown them back on the floor
11:53 am
nrkii

bgl, the other sounds like FE + part of your body that connects your head to your shoulders, but double the consonant in the middle
11:53 am
BGL

she's 6 give her a break... :)
11:54 am
BGL

Thanks, got 'em
11:54 am
BGL

Afterall, they can't go swimming. :P
11:54 am
musicmom

I wish the pool didn't have problems. I had every thought of letting them play in it all day today. Now it looks like it will be at least Sunday before it is ready
11:54 am
musicmom

LOL exactly!
11:55 am
musicmom

They do have bikes, basketball, soccer, bubbles, sidewalk chalk -- so why are they in here pestering me?
11:55 am
musicmom

They also have a huge stack of library books
11:55 am
nrkii

musicmom, here's what you could be experiencing with a 6 year old girl (courtesy of my niece): replacing the toothpaste with water, adding cream to the sugar bowl to make coffee fixing a one-step process, replacing hair gel with water, drawing pictures on wall and signing her older brother's name...
11:55 am
BGL

because the LOVE you!!!
11:55 am
Layne

Has anyone found a use for the Q?
11:55 am
musicmom

nrkii --- I think I would have throttled after the toothpaste.
11:55 am
boreetos

no q words today.
11:55 am
musicmom

however the coffee fixing idea makes sense:-)
11:56 am
nrkii

no layne, no use for q at all
11:56 am
Layne

TY, boreetos and nrkii
11:56 am
nrkii

well, after the mild throttling, she then got really mad...
11:56 am
boreetos

yeah unless you use liquid creamer.
11:56 am
nrkii

and scratched her bike many times against side of daddy's car
11:56 am
Layne

I keep wanting to make ranque or henque or some such.
11:56 am
nrkii

(yes, it was liquid creamer)
11:57 am
BGL

MM- have them draw pictures to the verses of hymn "Here I Am" and e-mail them to me...
11:57 am

I'm all for down time/unscheduled time for children. BUT today makes me understand the parents who keep them totally engaged in organized activity for the summer
11:57 am

11:57 am
nrkii

layne, i kept trying the same
11:57 am
boreetos

gross...there's a a reason that creamers aren't all that sweet on their own.
11:57 am
musicmom

I don't know that one BGL - I'll look up the lyrics on the web
11:57 am
BGL

They could take the snakes for a walk
11:57 am
Layne

I dranque some tea at the rinque before it sanque.

12:02 pm
Minski

I said that in a nice kind of sarcastic tone of voice by the way.
12:02 pm
boreetos

you know in my day, we didn't have a pool, we had to swim in the gutter like everyone else! And we didn't even have summer, we had winter 2! Snow all the time, and everything was uphill! Even downtown, which was in the valley, was uphill! We wore onions on our belts, cause that was the style at the time! Belt onions and swimming in the gutter!
12:02 pm
jrh402s

music: you should make a pool... wear swimsuits in the tub (shower is even better with a little water in the bottom)...or big pots of water in the lawn
12:03 pm
musicmom

I did kick them out Minski - they keep coming back:-)

12:04 pm
musicmom

jrh - we have a pool. Filled it yesterday only to discover a hole in the bottom. Am letting all the water out today to fix the hole
12:04 pm
Anniebrook

In my day you could have thrown up for 2 cents
12:04 pm
musicmom

MAN Bor you are a lot older than I thought:-)
12:04 pm
Layne

Bye, boreetos.
12:05 pm

12:08 pm

12:08 pm

12:12 pm

12:13 pm

Okay for the next 30 minutes I am going to focus completely on the grid.
12:13 pm

4:56 pm
amandacath

Anybody got the first ec6/27 - 7/40 combo? I'm assuming it's a combo, anyway...
4:56 pm
hetty

Please can someone clue me for ch5/14 (the last one)
4:56 pm
wassup

i don't see the harm in asking age, but i agree about name and location. lots of freaks out there. my biggest fear for my own kids
4:56 pm
stidmama

go Jill go! Hetty -- I just found the aa all by myself!
4:56 pm
mich_pdx

and may I add to stid's advice -- we don't know who's "lurking" out there, taking advantage.
4:56 pm
snowyowl

I've still got 112 to go - I'm just so slow theese days!
4:56 pm
wassup

and i'm not offended. hard to show inflection through chat.
4:57 pm
hetty

jilli, the aa clue is past tense of what you did when you said AH!
4:57 pm
amandacath

hetty - that ch5/14 is a silly word - never heard of it. Sounds like Sir Walter....
4:57 pm
stidmama

I try to get the kids not to give their ages because their screen names are so close to their real names. And because I have caught myself saying "little" things at different times that add up to a whole lot of info!
4:57 pm
mich_pdx

hetty, ch + round vowel + double crosses
4:57 pm

the ec's start w/ ec 4/6 -- to reverberate

stid, I know a contractor who's wife started doing radio news on a station I listen to, and she was telling "everyone" all sorts of things about her daughter, including name, age, where they went.... I mentioned to her husband that she should be circumspect -- she never mentioned her husband's name!

Dunno. Someone clued it earlier with ch + some baseball player (who I unfortuntely didn't know, but I was able to monkey it from there)

5:03 pm
stidmama

when I want to meet with someone I have "met" online I always try to find a safe, public place and I make sure people know where I am and when I expect to be home... one of my best friends came arose that way. And I don't release my real name or personal email until I am pretty sure about someone. I use Yahoo for contacts I make here for example.

5:04 pm

i don't think i'd ever meet anyone from online. i know we talk about getting together sometime, but i think i'd panic
5:05 pm
jillibus

OR..there's another ch 7/40 -- "salut!" with a d in the middle.
5:05 pm

i guess there are a few from here that i'd be comfortable with

I am a very socially anxious person myself. I am only perky and outgoing here _- it's a nice experience!

wow, stidmama. I would have never guessed that.
5:06 pm
pabtrek

does anyone have the first ch6/27
5:06 pm
hetty

salut with a d? I can't use a double ee-
5:06 pm
shirin

But, I guess it is easier to communicate like this sometimes.
5:06 pm
wassup

i'm totally social in real life, but i'm just not sure how all of this would pan out in person... you know? and i wouldn't have expected that either stid
5:06 pm

Do you do better in smaller groups too?
5:07 pm
stidmama

I did meet a not-too-distant cousin a couple years ago online, her branch of the family had moved away and stopped writing 60 years ago. We found each other through rootsweb's family trees.
5:07 pm
snowyowl

there's to be a British Babble Convention next week in London. I can't be there -This is the only place I've ever chatted online- I just 'lurked' for ages & then joined in. My best friend told meabout this site. She doesn't get to play much now tho'
5:07 pm
hetty

so i put the consonant between the 2 e's and lo and behold! Clever Jilly
5:07 pm
stidmama

I do really well speaking in front of groups, and talking with one or two others... more than ten people in social situations terrify me.
5:07 pm
jillibus

no, hetty, it's not the monk and not the TV, in fact the dictionary doesn't know it. it's the plural of the 6/27 in front of it.
5:07 pm
shirin

that's pretty neat. Another positive from the internet
5:08 pm
hetty

and I found the pl on autopilot. Ta
5:08 pm
mich_pdx

I've never chatted anywhere else, either. I tried online dating -- NOT a great experience, but ended up being good friends with a cribbage player who's now engaged to a woman who thinks we're two peas in a pod, cause we both went to Seven Sisters colleges
5:08 pm
amandacath

pab- the first ch6/27 is (I think) the pl of taliban-approved outerwear
5:09 pm
shirin

Im the same way, stid. I used to beat myself up over it since most my family members are extroverts. But, it has just been recent that I accepted myself for being so shy. I took a personality test in grad school and I realized a lot about myself
5:09 pm
stidmama

this is the only "chat" thingy I have ever participated in... but it is really nice.
5:09 pm

mich, i have a few friends who've tried the online dating. no good experiences there either.

i don't even know what that is.
5:11 pm
shirin

I am a INFJ
5:11 pm
shirin

I guess we share two traits
5:11 pm
snowyowl

LOL mich! - I've had real fun here & miss it if I can't play. I'm very noisy & extrovert but was not very good at joining in until I started to help in a Brownie Guide group. Now I'm noisier than ever & not too afraid to stand up & be counted
5:11 pm
Anniebrook

explain please, stid and shirin
5:12 pm
stidmama

myers-briggs is a personality "preference" tool that examines a person's basic instincts in four key areas. the first area is "introvert/extrovert" and it has more to do with how one enjoys getting information and interacting than really with shy/outgoing though there is some correlation
5:12 pm
Anniebrook

thanks, stid
5:12 pm
shirin

I was typing the same thing stid
5:12 pm

ok, i'll have to find out what i am

There are some pretty decent online tests for people who are just curious. They have been accurate for me.
5:13 pm

you can get a shorter version on the web wassup. Just google myers briggs
5:13 pm

It's odd how we react to questions when given a choice. I always felt my reading glasses were wrong & didn't like to say 'I don't know' when they asked a particular question. It didn't seem to be a proper answer!

8:22 pm
itsonme

8:23 pm
brandyjack

Lot nicer than the old. The chatterbox is a trap, but other than that it's nice. Only other downside I've noticed is viewing the entire log is painful in Firefox. I like not having to switch to stats when I'm trying to gray out a box.....
8:23 pm
Erda

BGL: any of the 3 ho ones, please -- ho 5, 6 a,d 7

8:24 pm
brandyjack

itsonme, much as I love the game, I don't usually start any over 120 words. I like to finish, and these big ones are almost impossible to find sufficient time.
8:24 pm
featherbee

first number is how many letters in the word, second is how many points. they come from the clue lists.
8:24 pm
BGL

ho5 - A place to keep plates and silverware (chnange the u to an o) then for the 7 make it past tense
8:24 pm
FranMag

ho5/16 is like another way to say moonshine minus an O
8:25 pm
FranMag

ho7 is the past tense of the ho5/16
8:25 pm
BGL

ho6 - not colded (no that's not a typo!)
8:25 pm
brandyjack

Temple, I doubt you need more than a new monitor. Say a 17" LCD or 19" CRT. Something that'll do 1200 x 1024 resolution without ripping your eyes out of your head.
8:26 pm
FranMag

ho6/24 is what bgl said and the key is not colded
8:26 pm
BGL

in7 - chitlins (or pig intestines)
8:26 pm
magbag

8:26 pm
4t8

8:26 pm

8:27 pm
