12:04 am
jillibus
zoot not there? does anyone remember zoot suits?
12:04 am
bendamalina
exactly, jillibus!
12:06 am
jillibus
no s, no plurals, maybe latin ones tho
12:06 am
phweak
Remembering zoot suits would show my age, therefore, I've never heard of them. ;)
12:07 am
helenkeller
i was testing while ya'll were flipping : i'm ESFJ - this sounds familiar (even though it's been 20+ years)
12:07 am

leanne42
thanks!
12:11 am
ls1

12:12 am
helenkeller
i'm assuming you drove up harlem to get there - i was so happy they put that place there, before i used to have to go way into the heart of congested yuppie-ville
12:12 am
ls1
i did - i used to go to hillside - 290 is much easier to travel than harlem
12:13 am
helenkeller
wass- i was 1 on the intuitive/sensing, so we could almost be the same!
12:13 am
ls1
but at least i get to stop at caputo's!
12:13 am
helenkeller
yes, harlem is a major hassle - i wish they could figure out a way to make it 2 lanes here
12:13 am
helenkeller

stidmama
going to find a new icon...
12:37 am
joey
stid - do you have the grid that tells you in a sentence or two in a funny way what the letters mean?
12:37 am
JaiKnut
Olivia is very dr5/12+y, and yet, its not a word??
12:37 am
joey
for example, mine was I have no trouble totally concentrating - oh, look there is a bird - on my work
12:38 am
stidmama
okay, new icon loaded, refresh for my take on the day's theme!
12:38 am
kierlex
that is cool, stid (the myers brigg breakdown on babble anon)
12:38 am
sleeky
I know, no mom can believe that's not a word!
12:38 am
stidmama
it's really interesting, but then I get into demographics and stuff like that big time!
12:39 am
kierlex
i think dr...y should be a word, too
12:39 am
sleeky
what is todayt's theme?
12:39 am
kierlex
i was going to do gondwanaland for my plate icon but i was distracted by license plates
12:40 am
stidmama
Knut, are things working out for you-all since you got back to work?
12:40 am
joey
stid - did you see my ???
12:40 am
kristinc
stid...I just checked it out, very cool. It is so interesting reading what others are
12:41 am
JaiKnut
indeed they are working out pretty good. I never see my husand, but Olivia has adapted to the routine so very well
12:42 am
kierlex
what are you talking about jaiknut if i may ask?
12:42 am
stidmama
sorry joey, missed it. trying to multitask....no, I don't have that!
12:42 am
kristinc
woah...I though jaiknut was an imposter...what's the deal?
12:42 am
stidmama
well, I am glad it's working for Liv...
12:43 am
stidmama
kristin, I thought so too. So I wrote to Knutmeg and her mom and checked it out. They responded that this is a legit combo name for them.
12:43 am
JaiKnut
kierlex-stid asked me how things were going since I went back to work. I was on maternity leave until May 1st, I had my baby, Olivia, in March. My husband and I work opposite shifts so we don't have to pay for child care.
12:43 am
kristinc
gotcha...now I won't ignore them...hi to you both!
12:43 am
wassup
stid, checked out the meyers brigg thing. pretty neat!
12:44 am
kierlex
ahh, JaiKnut, i figured it was shift work. My hubby and i are often on totally opposite shifts. It does work out well for child care (esp as long as baby naps) but can be hard on marriage!
12:44 am
stidmama
thanks wassup. It'll be fun to see if anyone else responds to the survey!
12:44 am
JaiKnut
hi back!
12:44 am

JaiKnut
Just to prove I am here, too, stid, your last emaqil to me was entitled "miss you"- Jai
12:46 am
stidmama
LOL Jai, glad you're on too! I was afraid I had offended you by being so suspicious!
12:46 am
Bambam
just went pro today (first day!) my mum is just playing for fun, and she never went pro (thank goodness!!)
12:46 am
kierlex
i feel like i am stepping into an existing circle of friends so excuse my nosy behavior
12:47 am
JaiKnut
We actually thought JaiKnut was a very cute name!
12:47 am
kristinc
um...I'd like to take this opportunity to say "this grid stinks" pfft! (I like to use that word now)
12:47 am
stidmama
being curious and nosy... do you and Knut know your myers briggs types? (it is a cute name!)
12:47 am
sleeky

Cat9x
thank you Fran!
3:40 am
jillibus
maddie, that lightbulb couldn't be easier! You start with the wa and add 2 cross letters. Do you know what cross letters are?
3:40 am
louie29

3:41 am
jillibus
PS - the word doesn't mean light bulb -- it's what is often written on one
3:41 am
Cat9x

Atalante
what's his name, Deutsch?
4:26 am
amandacath
does anyone have the de5/12? It seems to be hiding from me.
4:26 am

pits have a bad rep, but that's just a reflection on the owners.
4:27 am
Atalante
the people next door are arty people, so they have Rothko, then their cats are Coco (Chanel), Kandinsky, Gilbert and George. I got my kit from them and she was originally called Bridget (O'Reilly) and another kit in Coco's litter was Frida (Kahlo). All very artisty!
4:28 am
Atalante
I'm *sure* - people make their dogs
4:28 am
Cat9x
Maddie,,,EN plus the 3rd letter of my name plus 3rd vowel plus first vowel
4:28 am
Maddie26
ty cat i need 1 more i think.
4:28 am
Maddie26
is that right?? 1 more??
4:29 am
Maddie26
ty cat...is that all???
4:29 am
Cat9x
Agreed, PEOPLE do make the dog. Rotts get a bad rap because of the inhumane handlers, it's a pity, they are wonderful faithful lovely dogs.
4:29 am
Deutsch
Atlante, what a coincidence, a friend has a cat named Kandinski
4:29 am
Cat9x

4:30 am

what?......28 t words and i only have 7!!! any clues for them???
4:30 am
KittyVane
but since my kittie is a girl, Kafka didn't quite fit
4:30 am
Maddie26
cat do you have all of the t words??
4:31 am
Atalante
and I feel so sorry for Rothko. One day he's going to get into trouble, I just know it. He's like a big puppy with me cos I used to walk him every day with my dog and he knows I love him. But his owners don't seem to care much about him, and now he doesn't get enough walks or enough attention, and a few months ago, he bit someone really badly. And I just *know* its his owners' fault

Haz, ugh on the grid.
4:37 am
amandacath
I went almost straight to the list, Haz - not feeling very patient today
4:37 am
Cat9x
ahh ok, bye Maddie :)
4:37 am
Haz1558
Oh dear! That sounds ominous.....
4:37 am
KittyVane
You're better at clueing that way than I am Cat :)
4:38 am
KittyVane
I'm at 48 words and haven't gone to the list yet!
4:38 am
KittyVane
B'bye Maddie
4:38 am
Cat9x
Kitty, She understands it better, I tried the clueing way, she didn't understand, so I do it this way.
4:39 am
Maddie26
and happy babbling!!!! i will probably be on tomorrow so i will speak then!!! bye for now!!!!!!!!!!
4:39 am
Cat9x
I never use the list, but then I rarely finish either :)

4:40 am
Haz1558
It would be very early for her, ex-Wren. - happy birthday for yesterday, by the way.
4:40 am
KittyVane
I can't get my head out of the clueing way... my brain just doesn't seem to want to bend any other way...
Or then I just need to have breakfast to jump start the noggin'
4:40 am
amandacath
Hi Wren! Did you have a good day yesterday? Hurshy generally comes on later, afternoon our time
4:40 am
Cat9x
I had a hard time too, but then just gave away the consonants and clued the vowels
4:42 am
Cat9x
I kind if hate to do it that way, don't want to give it away to others, but that is all she understood.
4:43 am
amandacath
I like Kitty's sort of clues better - Maddie needs to be more patient and think about them, that's all.
4:44 am
Cat9x
true amanda, I tried and tried to clue, but she kept saying she didn't understand. I think she is just really young.
4:44 am
Haz1558
I think it's difficult to know what level to pitch clues at when people really don't know even simple words. The young ones seem to want results without putting in their own effort. BUt that's life!
4:44 am
ExWren
Thank you for your good wishes. Yes I had a good day, did some gardening in the morning, then hubby took me out to lunch. Two of my sons came around later with some of the grandchildren. A grandson and granddaughter came around independently, and my eldest son phoned from the US (working for a few days), so little time for babble. only managed 62 words! I though hershy was logged in.
4:45 am
Atalante
she leaves herself logged in generally I think
4:45 am
Haz1558
Good to know you had a good day. Hurshy, like me, may stay logged in all the time, even when not here.
4:45 am
Cat9x
I stay logged in all the time also
4:46 am
KittyVane
So do I, I can never be bothered to log out
4:46 am
Atalante
same here
4:47 am
amandacath
Maddie is young - MrP's and Lickety's littlie, if I'm not mistaken. Still, I think she's old enough to understand "if you're between 13 and 18 years old, you are a te**"
4:48 am
Cat9x
I agree, seemed obvious to me, but she couldn't grasp it.
4:48 am
Atalante
*refresh* for very happy (and muddy) spaniel at the beach last night
4:48 am
KittyVane
Is she really trying to understand the clues or is she just impatient and wants the words right off?
4:49 am
ExWren
OK, I just wanted hershy to chech out my icon. It's for Hershys Chocolate!
4:49 am
Cat9x
I'm not sure Kitty. I am thinking they want them handed to them, I could be wrong.
4:50 am
amandacath
I'm willing to bet she just wanted to get the word in and not take the time to think about it. It's so hard to get kids to understand that "winning" isn't the point of the game
4:50 am
KittyVane
I just have a hard time believing that she doesn't understand the clues, how ever simple they might be
4:51 am
Haz1558
Atalante - I love it! That tongue hanging out and the look of contentment!
4:51 am
amandacath
Maybe we should simply ask MrP!
4:51 am
Cat9x
Exactly Amanda, if winning was the point, I would never play! LOL I rarely finish, but thats ok, I enjoy the game and everyday I learn at least one new word.
4:51 am
Deutsch
Atalante! happy puppy! and a cutie!
4:51 am
Atalante
she was having such a wonderful time! running through the very squelchy mud and chasing seagulls!
4:52 am
Haz1558
Spangle has a thing about chasing birds as well. The triumph of hope over experience!
4:52 am
Cat9x
I am thinking she doesn't understand the half words with the **** in them, that the *** are what you need to add to make the word, thats the impression I got.
4:52 am
amandacath
Oh, hi Ata! I missed you as I was busy analyzing the minds of children - something I actually know next to nothing about.
4:52 am
KittyVane
Oh, such a happy puppy! :D
4:53 am
Atalante
the perfect way to put it, Haz! Hobbit loves chasing them even when they are high in the sky. I keep telling her not to bother, but ....
4:53 am
Atalante
is it actually possible to analyse children's minds? lol
4:54 am
FranMag
hi everybody! i've been lurking and trying to get through the list, still have 12 left!
4:54 am
FranMag
that's after going through the list!
4:54 am
Cat9x
I have 39 left and a HUGE headache lol
4:54 am
Deutsch
My pup barks at birds. He's very jealous that he can't fly. He tries by jumping off the deck (the deck is only two feet from the ground)
4:54 am
Haz1558
Hello FranMag - you'll be able to clue the rest of us then.
4:54 am
Deutsch
Wow, fran, that's excellent!
4:55 am
FranMag
haz, i'll help with what i can until i get too sleepy
4:55 am

is there a secret to the z words?
4:55 am
amandacath
Hi Fran!
4:55 am
FranMag
hi again cat!
4:55 am
Preethi
Hello Haz, Hello Fran
4:55 am
Preethi
Hi Atlante
4:55 am
Deutsch
manic, one z is a greek letter
4:55 am
FranMag
manic, not if you know greek and japanese!
4:55 am
FranMag
hi preethi
4:55 am
Haz1558
Hello preethi - are you well today?
4:56 am
Atalante
awwww deutsch - that must be remarkably amusing to watch!
4:56 am
FranMag
let me know if you want clues manicmama!
4:56 am
amandacath
Wow! Breaking announcement - CNN has *new video* of Zarkawi's DNA! Geez, that's something the world needs to see!
4:56 am
Cat9x
the zo was actually very easy for me, almost identical to my Grandmothers name.
4:56 am
Haz1558
ze4/9 - middle name of Catherine, wife of Michael Doublas
4:56 am
KittyVane
And the second Z is a japanese sandal
4:57 am
Deutsch
It's a scream, Atalante! He takes this flying leap. At first, we thought he would go over the gate, but he's too muscle bound.
4:57 am
Haz1558
Douglas,even
4:57 am
Atalante
video of DNA? that must be - um - fascinating viewing!
4:57 am
Preethi
Iam doing good. Thank you. How have you been Haz?
4:57 am
amandacath
Boy, let me tell you! Did you know that DNA looks like a military duffle bag? I certainly didn't!
4:57 am
Haz1558
I've been pretty busy the past few days but the sun is shining so everything looks good.
4:58 am
Cat9x
I knew that amanda, mine looks like a denim backpack :)
4:59 am
manicmama
got both of the z's thanks you guys
4:59 am
Atalante
at least you've got DNA in the news. All we've had for the last week is Wayne Rooney's foot
4:59 am
amandacath
I think mine looks like a pink straw basket
5:00 am
manicmama
who is wayne rooney
5:01 am
FranMag
did anyone get the at6/18?
5:01 am
amandacath
Ata - I've got CNN international running in the background. Otherwise I'd only have Michael Ballack's calf
5:01 am
Atalante
wayne rooney is a footballer, who broke a bone in his foot. which was national trauma and has occupied the news for weeks
5:01 am
Deutsch
no to the at 6
5:02 am
Cat9x
I havent Fran, missing that one
5:02 am
Atalante
urf. Ballack's calf must be just as boring
5:02 am
Deutsch
Atalante, was rooney set to play in the world cup?
5:02 am
Haz1558
He's considered to be the star player for the team.
5:03 am
manicmama
I am in US ...but I understand....sometimes the media goes gaga over the most trivial of news
5:03 am
Deutsch
Ooh, then I'm sorry to hear that.
5:03 am
amandacath
the at6 is when you are absorbed in somthing, you are at**** upon it. Or where the sleeping bag is when camping.
5:03 am
Atalante
of the scale that the general opinion is that we'll win the world cup with him, and not without him *sigh*
5:03 am
Haz1558
He's not nearly as decorative as some of the other team members, but he is a good player (so they say).
5:04 am
FranMag
thanks amanda! i thought i had tried that!
5:04 am
amandacath
And yes, Ballack's calf is quite boring - but at least he's cuter than Wayne Rooney. Or decorative, as Haz says
5:04 am
Atalante
Rooney certainly isn't very decorative. Thank goodness for the Italians!
5:05 am
FranMag
found the at7/28, anyone want a clue?
5:05 am
amandacath
oooo the Italians! I generally like to look at the Dutch boys, too. And the South Americans almost always have plenty to offer.
5:05 am
Deutsch
I'm with you on that one, Atalante!
5:05 am
mickie12
yes please fran
5:06 am
FranMag
the at7/28 becomes the 8
5:06 am
Haz1558
If it's free, we'll take it Fran!
5:06 am
manicmama
still looking for the sleeping bag
5:06 am
Cat9x
Thanks amanda, got it :)
5:07 am
Atalante
But no Paulo Maldini this time round. That's a serious blow to the attractiveness of the World Cup
5:07 am
FranMag
at7/28, it's related to a the word at****ion that means to reduce personnel by just letting them leave and not replacing them
5:07 am
amandacath
CNN has this "put together your own best team of all time" thingy going. I've considered sending in the best-looking players ever in, just to see if they'd publish it!
5:07 am
Cat9x
manic, just as she clued ...at plus what you put your sleeping bag in while camping, or, a pup ****
5:08 am
FranMag
at7/28, at + overused, the 8 is the past tense of it
5:08 am
Deutsch
I'd like to see that, Amandacath!
5:08 am
Atalante
think you should, amanda. nothing wrong with utter shallowness and ogling at footballers :)
5:09 am
pam
they are great clues...when you remember there are TWO A's in the grid...8-)
5:09 am
Cat9x
Ohhhhh, they have some gorgeous footballers don't they!!
5:10 am
Haz1558
Got them - thank you.
5:10 am
amandacath
I try to be as utterly shallow as possible when submitting myself to football. It's the only way to counterbalance the life-and-death earnestness of so many people (read: men).
5:10 am
Deutsch
Well, I think I'll toddle off to bed. see y'all later (unless you're watching the footballers! I hope to)
5:11 am

good morning everyone! This looks like a real stinker. Small and mean.
5:15 am
Cat9x
lol, you're welcome amanda, my monkey misbehaves all the time ! :)
5:16 am
Cat9x
good morning Eva!
5:16 am
amandacath
Mornin' Eva! I pulled up the list after about 40 words - no patience today
5:16 am
Haz1558
Good morning Eva. I've got to 68 but am thinking of the list. The t letter is entirely over-represented.
5:18 am
amandacath
since when is L4/5+y not a word!?
5:18 am
Haz1558
I tried that as well, amanda.
5:19 am
Cat9x
I wondered that too
5:19 am
KittyVane
I just tired "doody" and giggled while doing so :D
5:19 am
KittyVane
I'm feeling very mature today
5:20 am
amandacath
hee-hee!
5:20 am
Haz1558
lottie and dottie, the tottie sisters aren't allowed in either.
5:20 am
Atalante
lottie and dottie who own a rottie, even!
5:21 am
pam
yes, and it won't go pottie
5:21 am
amandacath
Totti should be accepted today, in honor of the World Cup
5:22 am
Atalante
Totti should be accepted any day LOL
5:22 am
Cat9x
i tried zoot, for the old time "zoot suits"
5:23 am
KittyVane
I tried zoot too, several times
5:23 am
amandacath
Very true, very true Ata. There were a couple of days about a month ago when they weren't sure he was going to make the team. I thought I was going to have to suffer through the world cup without him!
5:23 am
Atalante
Its bad enough within Maldini, but without Totti too? Unthinkable!
5:24 am
Cat9x
Zoot should be a word, nooooo, instead the have words like krooni LOL
5:24 am
mrpresident
So do we request a world cup grid!??
5:24 am

5:50 am
amandacath
glad it worked!
5:51 am

I blame my bad progress with the gird on the fact that they're FINALLY installing our doors, thus there is a lot of drilling and banging going on

that's as good a reason as any kittyvane!
5:52 am
jean1953

Angelsong
MrP: I thought you had one already?
6:01 am
mrpresident
I have been given strict instructions for the kids from mps and I need to know what is going on there... so if they are misbehaving, please let me know.
6:02 am
mrpresident
Angel, I have a business one, but not a personal one... I would rather create a personal one and give that to you. Is that OK?
6:03 am
amandacath
Oh, she wasn't misbehaving, she was just not trying hard enough to understand the clues given to her. At least that's what we suspected, and after musing back and forth on the subject, I thought it would be easiest to simply ask her mother if that were the case.
6:03 am
mickie12
mrp,,,,, they dont realise the dangers of the web and one keeps giving names out!!
6:04 am
Angelsong
sure, MrP. but it's ok to post the commercial one. see the other links on the resource page for babblers' sites.
6:05 am
mrpresident
OH, those kids are 11 or 12 and they are very sweet, but they are young and don't understand the clues!
I have to say they just don't have the maturity to understand the nature of chat.
you are right mickie, they will be suspended if they continue to do that! and they have been warned.
I hope they calm down soon
6:05 am

aargh! thanks mrp, finally got that clue, i'm being really dense!

Thanx, Mr. P. now not so dense! I am off to curves to work out. bbl
6:08 am
amandacath
Do they really not understand the clues, or are they just not willing to take the time to think about them? I mean, a clue like "If you're between 13 and 18 you are a te**" isn't that complicated ... or?
6:09 am
FranMag
later phandmd

6:23 am
KittyVane
I have 65 to go and I'm struggling already!
6:23 am
Kallia
well done Fran :)
6:23 am
Kallia
I may have to get the list soon
6:24 am
mickie12
60 left an droppin slowly
6:24 am
FranMag
i hit the list after 83 words, i was totally stuck
6:24 am
KittyVane
I'm hating the Ts with a passion
6:24 am
mrpresident
I have to let you all know! Lickety wants to take a break from the clue list...
6:25 am
amandacath
My phantom today is troll.
I'm never sure whether to clue the kids or not - if it seems like they're really trying, I hate not to encourage them, but it does get frustrating. There are good reasons I'm neither a mother nor a teacher!
6:25 am
mrpresident
and bab anon has no stat list at the moment. I told him it might be a bit of a bother.... no stats at all
6:25 am
Kallia
would that be to do with patience Amanda?
6:26 am
Dianne
mrp - you must be jesting - right?
6:26 am
amandacath
Oh no! I'm lost without the list! And BJ was on last night and said he'd quit doing his because lickety's was so good!
6:26 am
Kallia
Brandy Jack not doing it anymore?
6:26 am
FranMag
brandyjack was on earlier and didn't think anyone was using his list anymore, a lot of people told him to start doing it again
6:26 am
amandacath
And yes, Kallia - patience is not one of my virtues!
6:27 am
Kallia
mine neither so recognise the trait :)
6:27 am
Dianne
how can we persuade him to keep doing in - for the sanity of us babblers :)
6:27 am
KittyVane
Any clues for the other word for the second N?
I have the one meaning not messy.
6:27 am
*kathy*
oh, amandacath! i always thought you were so patient. just because us kids dont get things...
6:28 am
Kallia
maybe lickety and brandy jack could get a rota going?
6:28 am
FranMag
kitty, like something you catch butterflies with, just double the last letter
6:28 am
Kallia
weight after all packaging is removed Kitty
6:28 am
Jacula
Kitty - the other 'n' is your wages after tax etc is taken.
6:28 am
KittyVane
Thank you Fran!
6:28 am
mrpresident
is brandy jack backing out?? I didn't know that! where is this in the log... I have to look!
6:29 am
FranMag
kallia said a word!! ;-)
6:29 am
KittyVane
and Jacula too
6:29 am
FranMag
mrp, he said he hadn't been updating because he didn't think anyone needed his list anymore.
6:29 am
mrpresident
why would brandyjack not do it anymore
6:30 am
Angelsong
100 words down!
6:30 am
FranMag
go angelsong!
6:30 am
amandacath
Kathy, that's why I generally stay out of it. I don't hold it against you, it's my fault for not being patient enough.
6:30 am
Kallia
maybe because lickety is perceived to be the one to use?
6:30 am
mrpresident
yesterday, I heard he was on holiday for a couple of weeks! I have no idea what is going on there!!
6:30 am
Jacula
Maybe he felt sidelined?
6:31 am
mrpresident
Did he say that jac?
6:31 am
Jacula
Dunno, MrP. I didn't see the log.
6:32 am
Angelsong
brandyjack's list is needed! I hope he continues doing it.
6:32 am
FranMag
tr5/20 anyone?
6:32 am
Kallia
we need to tell him that Angelsong
6:32 am
dalmatian5
Brandjack you cannot imagine how much I miss your list! I like the way it is set up. I know it is a lot of work but we totally use and appreciate it.
6:33 am
Dianne
tr+ 1st 3 letters of the "seep" word.
6:33 am
mattygroves
Oh my - I'll have to quit babble without the list :(
6:33 am
amandacath
I jumped on late last night to finish, and BJ popped in. He didn't seem insulted, but you never know. I use lickety's basically 'cause it's easier to get to.
6:33 am
Jacula
I imagine it's quite a responsibility to be relied upon my so many to provide stats come what may. What happens if you're ill or away? A ro** of two or more would be ideal for the stat providers, I imagine.
6:33 am
FranMag
thanks dianne, got it just as your clue came up, never thought to go that way!
6:33 am
Jacula
Just a suggestion.
6:35 am
Kallia
I mentioned that a few mins ago Jacula...its where I said a word lol...was searching like mad and didn't see what word it was until you posted! doh!!!
6:35 am
amandacath
That's a wierd word - any clue what it means? (the tr5/20, I mean)
6:36 am
FranMag
there is no def at dictionary.com, i'll try somewhere else.
6:36 am
mrpresident
I just chatted to Lickety, brandyjack and him have never talked... suggestion noted, but not on the cards.
6:36 am
Aloyisius
Good Morning All..
6:36 am
amandacath
Hi Aly!
6:36 am
amandacath
ummm Aloy, that is
6:37 am
mrpresident
so no clue list for a couple of weeks??
I guess brandyjack would have to come back!
6:37 am
Kallia
morning Aloy...well afternoon here :)
6:37 am
Aloyisius
I am relieved to hear that BJ is not ill, but it saddens me to think that he might think his list is unappreciated.
6:37 am
FranMag
tr5/20 def from wikipedia: a municipality located in the Belgian province of Liège
6:38 am
Aloyisius
It used to take me SO long to complete a grid - it is doable without lists, but just barely (if you have a life!)
6:38 am
Jacula
Maybe if people put their thoughts, suggestions, appreciation of BJ on his stats thread on BabAnon he might have a re-think?
6:38 am
Kallia
MrP is lickety not going to do the list for a couple of weeks? There would be no 'have to' about Brady Jack coming back though
6:38 am
FranMag
i didn't think proper nouns were allowed so it must mean something else in enable
6:38 am
mrpresident
I can easily make lickety ill for a couple of weeks! perhaps BJ would reconsider if you all let him know he is needed
6:38 am
Aloyisius
I like the organization of both lists; BJ's h as the synopsis at the top which I use before going to the more detailed list.
6:39 am
amandacath
And that's me finished!
Argh, that can't be it, Fran .... will go hunting for it
6:39 am
FranMag
yay amanda!
6:39 am
Aloyisius
Wow, hurray for amandacath!
6:39 am
Kallia

6:39 am
Merk
I have am stuck already on the 'at' words. I am not seeing something. Is there a clue here. The vowels don't seem connected to the right consonants at all.
6:39 am
Jacula
MrP - That's rather worrying! You're not planning to poison poor Lickety, are you?? LOL
6:39 am
KittyVane
Well done Amanda!
6:39 am
FranMag
to6/21 and to6/18?
6:39 am
Jacula
Well done, Amanda!
6:40 am
FranMag
merk, except for the last two they are unrelated to each other
6:40 am
Dianne
to6/21 - it when your blown your horn,
6:41 am
FranMag
of course it is dianne! i was looking in the wrong direction again. thanks!
6:41 am
Jacula
Thanks, Dianne. I hadn't thought to work backwards on that word.
6:41 am
Dianne
to6/18 - think of the word that means make a hem and instead of an s start it with a t.
6:41 am
amandacath
only did it with the list - it's a trying grid today
6:42 am
FranMag
first at5/10 is roman courtyard
6:42 am
mrpresident
Well, if BJ and Lickety do no list, what for you all??
I have been planning plenty for Lickety!! And doing clue lists everyday is not what I had planned for him!! He only does it because he loves to and thinks you guys appreciate it. If his list is better received than BJ, so be it,
But BJ is his own person and he knows how many hits he is getting. Hope he reconsiders.
6:42 am
Merk
A clue for at 5/10 and on please?
6:42 am
Kallia
well we can go back to the old way....just clue it :)
6:43 am
FranMag
thanks dianne, will ponder that clue
6:43 am
FranMag
merk, clue at 6:42
6:43 am
amandacath
found the def for tr5/20 - alt spelling for "close-fitting tartan trousers"
6:44 am
Jacula
Kallia - True. Many of us do all, or the majority, of the grid that way but use the lists for really 'stuck' words. Those who like the lists from the start might be troubled, though.
6:44 am
Aloyisius
lOL amanda.. now everyone should have that in their vocabs!
6:44 am
Kallia
well done Amanda...was thinking it might be something like that ! Thank you for the info :)
6:44 am
Kallia
Yes Jacula I see that could be a problem.....
6:45 am
Merk
Thanks, I typed that in Fran, but I don't know how it is there. I couldn't get to my final letter. I must need coffee before I do this.
6:45 am
amandacath
How did we manage pre-google?
6:45 am
KittyVane
Badly I'd say
6:45 am
Jacula
Amanda - we used those paper things called books! LOL.
6:45 am
Kallia
well I hae got one word in the last 30 mins...
6:45 am
FranMag
merk, it starts from the bottom A, so do the other ATs
6:45 am
Aloyisius
It really boils down to how much TIME you have for Babble in a day; I love to chat and interact, but I lurk when I am pressed for time (that is most of the time, unfortunately)...
6:46 am
Kallia
I do that too Aloy
6:46 am

Good grief, I am so blind sometimes. I've been starting with the wrong 'a'. "I saw the light."
6:50 am
mrpresident
I spoke to Lickety...
6:50 am
Jacula
Why isn't 'roly' a word? What about jam roly poly? Or those large ladies who dance?
6:50 am
amandacath
I still can't read much on the screen. The info just doesn't seem to soak in. I can't concentrate on the screen like I can on paper
6:50 am
Merk
I have not been here long. I noticed the tale end of the Lickety conversation. Is he quitting his page? And I don't know the other J link at all. where is that?
6:51 am
Kallia
good grief Jacula...are they still around?
6:51 am
Jacula
Amanda - I'm glad it's not just me. I always sayI think better with a pen in my hand.
6:51 am
Jacula
Kallia - not sure.
6:51 am
Jacula
MrP - What did he say?
6:52 am
KittyVane
I actually still use a proper paper dictionary when I babble, it's easier for me to look for words there than go through word lists on online
6:52 am

What is mps?

6:54 am
mrpresident
his list gets hundreds of hits a day and he will continue to produce the list as long as people come to it...
and he will produce it at the flip cause that is the most convenient time.
Hope that helps.
6:54 am
amandacath
Same here Jac! I took a web-design class a couple of years ago and found myself feeling really old as I was actually taking notes with pen and paper instead of in a Word document! And truly, I'm not *that* old...

And yes, I absolutely loved it. It was my dream job and I was really bummed to give it up for kids. (But I wouldn't have been able to leave the kids to continue working, either.)

Vicuna
As I recall, I score strongly introverted on Myers-Briggs, but kids don't scare me nearly as much as grown-ups.
10:27 am
stidmama
that is so cool Vicuna! except having to choose between your own kids and that teaching job... assume you have kept teaching in various forms?
10:29 am
stidmama
My mother is a teacher so I know about the parents and administration trials! I actually enjoy tutoring and have one literacy and other tutoring for 30 years... but the thought of extended contact with "groups" of any size whether child or adult does not energize me.
10:29 am
EasternBlue
I'm an ENFJ with strong I & P tendencies...(big surprise, huh??) ; D
10:29 am
Vicuna
No, stidmama, I haven't really kept up the teaching, except Sunday school, which isn't the same at all. But instead I have been able to concentrate much more on my art "career," so that's been something of a compensation.

11:00 am
EasternBlue
Kallia - maybe we call it different things on various sides of the pond??
11:00 am
musicmom
Kallia - we have found through the years that knots are called by different names in different regions. Can be very confusing when working with large groups.
11:00 am

it was on the back of my multivariable calculus final, because my professor's specialty was knot theory

12:05 pm

home plate?
12:05 pm
BryanC
haha- i just finished- i've reached home plate- now i can start my day!

Eastern Blue- i can't win this argument, so I might as well spin it....
12:10 pm
hurshy
now i'll make enemies of you both: BASEBALL IS SOOOO DULL
12:11 pm
EasternBlue
Bryan - who said money can't buy happiness (or a few championships...)...it's really more for my hubby than me - he's the big Yankee fan...
12:11 pm
hurshy
it's like, hmm, would i rather watch my fingernails grow or watch baseball? fingernails, no question.
12:11 pm
EasternBlue
plus - you spell your name the 'right' way (my grandfather spelled his name that way too)...
12:12 pm
EasternBlue
hurshy - the reason I love baseball is that I can do other things while my hubby watches it... : )
12:12 pm

has T7 been clued? It's my last word and I'm completely stuck.

12:13 pm
EasternBlue
*pats Bryan on back*
there, there...
12:13 pm
BryanC
hurshy has a point though- it is a slow and long game for spectator sports. baseball is fourth on my fave sports list actually. football comes first, hands down
12:14 pm
Merk

12:16 pm

Specificity, was that the T7 that you needed?
12:16 pm
BGL
Lordy was one of the first words I tried... it IS a word in my vocab!
12:17 pm
hurshy

Yay! thanks merk!!!
12:18 pm

*hands hurshy some bananas* you have to remember to bribe them!!!

Who are we bribing? I can be bought. Maybe for ice cream.
12:19 pm
EasternBlue
Merk - hurshy's monkeys...she has 2 more t's to find & the monkeys aren't helping...
12:19 pm
hurshy
there aren't more than 2 tw's, are there?
12:19 pm

12:19 pm
hurshy

12:20 pm

We've had both used in the last while. tw 5. British, it was divided in tw***
12:20 pm
hurshy
yes i have the tw's
12:21 pm
hurshy
aha got the 4 at last! just one left then!
12:21 pm
Merk
Are the rankings changed when the new puzzle comes out or after you finish and get the fireworks?
12:21 pm
hurshy
when the new puzzle comes out
12:21 pm
specificity
after the new puzzle
12:22 pm
LeslieAnn
i think it's about 10 minutes after the new puzzle
12:22 pm
BGL
wasn't olde in a puzzle a couple of days ago? Why sin't it now?
12:22 pm
hurshy
no BGL, it's never taken though we always wish it were
12:22 pm
Merk
Because you can get more points if you change the last letter.
12:23 pm
BGL
It must have been in a recent crossword, then. I know I've used it recently
12:23 pm
Merk
Think of records when you listen to a golden ol**
12:23 pm
hurshy
i have ta5/10, te 5/12, to5/10 x 2, to 5/12, 4 tr5 and tw5, which T5 might i be missing?

Merk - what's a record?? *wink*
12:23 pm
AngeC
has the 1 word for R been clued at all
12:23 pm

hurshy, for t5s, there are 1 TA, 1 TE, 3 TO, 5 TR, 1 TW

aha, another TR then
12:24 pm
AngeC
top right corner
12:24 pm
hurshy
ok i have group of 3, attempted, commonplace, and...the end of the te7
12:25 pm
EasternBlue
Ange - like a big fight, with police - but a different spelling...
12:25 pm
specificity
do you have the one with double vowles?
12:25 pm
Merk
Well, I'm leaving for another day. This puzzle wasn't bad, but I should learn never to start with the 'a's. I find them too discouraging when I'm not familiar with the puzzle.
12:25 pm
Merk
That was an oops AngeC
12:26 pm
hurshy
no specificity that must be it
12:26 pm
LeslieAnn
me too, merk
12:26 pm
Merk
Don't feel bad. That is so easy to do.
12:26 pm
EasternBlue
bye Merk...
12:26 pm

LeslieAnn
i haven't, eva
12:36 pm

i talked to lola a couple of days ago and she is busy with a new job and applying for british citizenship, said she'd come back when things settle into more of a routine again
12:38 pm
EvaNadine
ahh, good to hear...
im not on as much these days myself, just wondering how they were...
guess i could drop anj an email.
:)
12:38 pm
hurshy
she has NOT eloped with anj, contrary to some of our fanciful speculations, promised she'd tell us if that happened... :)
12:39 pm
EasternBlue
if you see them (or send a note), please send my regards & hello's...
12:39 pm
EasternBlue
wouldn't that help with her British citizenship?? tee hee hee!!
12:40 pm
hurshy
i suppose it would :)
12:40 pm
EasternBlue
I'm down to 31 to go...still listless but definitely out of the groove of babble...
12:40 pm

have any babblers really eloped? that'd be fun
12:41 pm
EasternBlue
jrh - not that I know about...but wouldn't it???
12:41 pm
EvaNadine

12:41 pm

it's hard jumping back& forth between this & work...

jrh, so are you speaking dzeutch?

12:52 pm
jakes-mum
any clues for the LO5/12 plz?
12:52 pm
jrh402s
it would be odd
12:52 pm
jrh402s
I think "Dzongkha" would be a great exclamation... in lieau of yowser :)
12:53 pm
LeslieAnn
that's what i was thinking, like you found the 8 or something :)
12:53 pm

jakes-mum - went to the bathroom in britain?

just curious: do you all have a system that you use when doing this puzzle, or do you just go willy nilly in a random fashion?

nomatter what the chatlog reads, I have not been promoting Dzongkha for four or five hours
12:54 pm
hurshy
oh i didn't have to say in britain cause you're there :)
12:54 pm
hurshy
willy nilly!!!

jrh402s

dzongkha would get you lots of babble points
12:55 pm
hurshy
i have a system of willy-nilliness though
12:55 pm
LeslieAnn
spark, i go letter by letter to get all i can at first, then go sort of willy-nilly with the list
12:55 pm
Vicuna
Well, it would have been very persistent of you if you had!
12:56 pm
spark
jrh402s -- do you stick with that letter until you get all the words or do you give up at some point and tear some hair out and move on?
12:56 pm
hurshy
i find words completely on my own until have at least half of them, then i allow myself to look at the tile stats. after i have 80-95% of them i open up chat and look for clues that fall, or start bothering people with pesky questions.
12:58 pm
jrh402s
spark: I stick to the letter, but I pick the letters I want to do. I usually stick with the hards ones first... like z in this puzzle. At the end, I rarely feel the need to work through all 28 t's, etc
12:58 pm
EasternBlue
spark - I'm pretty willy nilly - I try to close out a letter, but then I start to see other words...and then I wander around the grid...
12:59 pm
EasternBlue
...and then all h#%& breaks loose...
12:59 pm
jrh402s
spark: however, I do enter words if I spy them outside the letter I'm working on.
12:59 pm
EasternBlue
...and then I beg for clues & use the lists... 8 )
1:00 pm
spark
lol. I guess there is no RIGHT way to do this, then. Everyday I try a new approach and I always wind up missing most of my hair -- and then I troll the chatlog for clues... how often do you all actually complete the entire grid?
1:00 pm
hurshy
it shouldn't trouble you if it's a W and it goes w-w-w-w!
1:00 pm
jrh402s
and I find the clues given here to be pretty interesting. I usually enter them in too.
1:00 pm
Vicuna
I search willy-nilly until I have about 1/2 to 3/4, then concentrate on the tile stats for a while, and then go to the two-letter lists. I try never to ask for any clues, although I happily eavesdrop on the clues other people request.

Hello every1!
1:37 pm
Vicuna
Stid, hurshy immortolized you and your family in a poem a while back.
1:37 pm
stidmama
yes LeslieAnn, I think androgyny suits me... at least until Dr.God lets me have a green purse...
1:37 pm
Anniebrook
hi Stid and gramma
1:37 pm
stidmama
oh! today? I will go look for it. :-)
1:37 pm

I think the androgynous color is nicer than pink, which is my least favorite color.
1:38 pm
gramma
stid, your purse is green
1:38 pm
stidmama
she's probably getting me back for the little ditty I wrote about her and hetty this mornign...
1:38 pm
Dachef
twenty-five letters, all in a row, just what we need when feeling so low, we play for fun, not to be the best, but at the end of the day, we should still be allowed "fest".
1:38 pm
stidmama
Dachef, you're the best! *big grin*
1:39 pm
Anniebrook
stid and dachef are our poet laureates!`
1:39 pm

1:39 pm
jakes-mum
could I purlease have a hint for the DR6/27 fellow babblers? ;-)
1:40 pm
Vicuna
dr6/27 is a compound word, an arid place to park your car, perhaps
1:40 pm
EasternBlue
hi gramma, mab, stid, Dachef...(much too clever for a Friday afternoon by the way!!)...
1:40 pm
gramma
oh dear, stidmama
1:40 pm
LeslieAnn
oh thank you vicuna
1:40 pm
stidmama
the dr 6/27 is a compound word. starts in the right corner, uses a three point tile and ends like the man in the biblical "pillar of salt" story
1:41 pm
jakes-mum
Ahh vicuna could never have found that without your stunning clue ty!
1:41 pm

1:42 pm
LeslieAnn
te 5 ends in the abbr. for the state in between Illinois and Ohio
1:42 pm
Beckzilla
at7 is at+tr5/10
1:42 pm
Vicuna
at7 and 8 are the front part of a word that usually ends -ion, as in a war of at-----ion. Includes a word for banal.
1:42 pm
Beckzilla
the 8 is the past tense of that
1:43 pm
gramma
I'm not ignoring pleas for help ( well, actually, I am. ) I'm just starting and I'm of no help...not even to myself.
1:43 pm
Dachef
on the chat log the people just want to be heard, as they scream "just where is that last bloody word?", but they always feel daft and no better, when that word turns out to be feta or etna.
1:43 pm
Vicuna
Is your back back, too, cingy?
1:43 pm
LeslieAnn

1:48 pm
Anniebrook
