1:09 am

helenkeller

1:10 am

Krys10

the z-words are fun too - all 4-letter words

1:10 am

Krys10

helen what's your icon about? Have you read Stiff?

1:10 am

ls1

rhymes with the mo6/24 helen

1:10 am

LeslieAnn

the theme today is how we feel when we finish a grid, krys

1:11 am

ls1

krys10 that is my favorite book!

1:11 am

Krys10

1:11 am

jillibus

1:11 am

libarebel

lol, helen re: icon :D

1:11 am

ls1

who knew a book about cadavers could be so funny

1:12 am

helenkeller

nope, haven't read it - but have read alot about it, sounds intersting, very good & varied reviews, sound like a good read, i may pick it up -covers historical uses, what happen physiologically - the gamut

1:12 am

LeslieAnn

bye jilli!

1:12 am

helenkeller

really ls1? you've read it? that's what alot of the reviewer said, respectful, but humerous

1:12 am

helenkeller

good nite jili :)

1:13 am

Krys10

yeah, i think so too. my favorite chapter was about how cadavers can be used in accident investigations

1:13 am

ls1

she is a really great author - the footnotes could be the best parts of the book. aside from the humorous parts, tho', it's really fascinating. pick it up

1:14 am

helenkeller

yeah - i read that - the original crash test dummies, lol

1:14 am

LeslieAnn

in fact, helen has a footnote in her icon

1:14 am

4:02 am

Haz1558

I've just discovered that the poking pr4/6 can be reversed to get a do4/6

4:02 am

Haz1558

These things please me.

4:03 am

Dachef

thanks! That was the last d that I've just spent half hour trying to find!!!!!

4:03 am

Haz1558

Ah well - glad to help!

4:03 am

Cat9x

I found that earlier as well Haz, very pleased :)

4:03 am

Dachef

now if you want to hand over my last 3 m's, I'll be VERY grateful!!!

4:04 am

Cat9x

still 2 D's short though

4:04 am

Cat9x

I have all but one M, what do you need?

4:04 am

Haz1558

I've got nothing strange in the m department - looks like Cat is your woman there.

4:05 am

Dachef

dunno - I'll keep plugging away for a bit. The d's are all normal(ish) words. Do you have the do5 that sounds a bit like a type of fin?

4:07 am

Cat9x

I don't think I have that one, the only do5 I have is the plural of do4/5, and the childs toy

4:07 am

egm

hello

4:08 am

Haz1558

Hello egm.

4:08 am

egm

is jess here

4:08 am

Cat9x

Unless that do5 is what you meant, forgive me, falling asleep here :)

4:08 am

Dachef

the other do5/12 is defined as "the outer part of the foot". If you can get it from that you deserve muchos kudos!

4:09 am

Cat9x

ahhh, thank you!!

4:09 am

Cat9x

now only one short, thanks Dachef!

4:10 am

Haz1558

I must go and get some errands done. I hope to be back later. Bye all!

Cat9x

bye Haz!

4:10 am

egm

what does black mean?

4:10 am

ExWren

Can't come out to play today. We are away all day at a Male Voice Choir Music Festival at the Fairfields Hall at Croyden. Have a good babbling day. Of coure it HAD to be a small grid today didn't it?

4:11 am

Cat9x

Have fun Wren! It's a great grid today :)

4:12 am

ExWren

Don't rub it in. I haven't completed a grid for over a week now

4:12 am

egm

mrp, what does your black handbag thingy mean

4:12 am

Dachef

black means the absence of light, or, as some academics claim, it is merely the culmination of mixing all the coulours in the spectrum. The debate will rage on, however, as new theories, such as the "black matter theory" emerge every day.

4:12 am

Cat9x

Don't feel bad, I rarely complete them, am happy to get close!

4:13 am

egm

wow

4:13 am

mrpresident

what Dachef said!
Or it means I chose to remain sexless! (poor hubby!!)

4:14 am

egm

ok

4:15 am

Dachef

My ex mother-in-law was a bit like that. Sometimes it was very difficult to tell whther she was male or female. Especially first thing in the mornings. Ugh.

4:15 am

Cat9x

LOL Dachef!

4:16 am

mrpresident

LOL! :))

4:16 am

egm

can please have some help

4:17 am

Cat9x

Love ex mother-in-law jokes, I have one also! Ex MIL that is :)

4:17 am

Cat9x

what do you need egm?

4:17 am

Dachef

who was joking? Seriously, I swear she used to pee standing up.

4:17 am

Cat9x

have you found any words?

4:17 am

egm

halp please

4:18 am

mrpresident

I remain faithful and married thanks to the wonderful MIL I have! I swear I married that family rather than my spouse!

4:18 am

egm

help

4:18 am

egm

i have five words

4:18 am

Cat9x

LOL, she probably did Dachef! :)

4:18 am

mrpresident

**throws egm a life saver**

4:19 am

egm

what?

4:19 am

SummerBreeze44

That's why they have "Depends" :-)

4:19 am

Cat9x

boys like trucks, girls like to play with do***

4:20 am

Cat9x

that will give you the do5/12

4:20 am

Dachef

truck drivers?

4:20 am

Cat9x

LOL!

4:20 am

Cat9x

you are too funny Dachef, thanks for the laughs! :)

4:21 am

egm

i have that one

4:21 am

mrpresident

one of the girls at school has a mum who was once her dad! The challenge is asking if she is the natural birth mother! hmmmm

4:22 am

Cat9x

ok, try this....thae that same word you just said you have, and you can change the first letter to get 2 more words, actually 4 more, with plurals

4:22 am

Dachef

why do that to your kids? Its bad enough trying to fit in with your peers when you're growing up, let alone having complexes about your home life. Poor kid.

4:22 am

Cat9x

yikes mrp! that would be quite a challenge for a child!

4:22 am

egm

its my brothers birthday tommorrow

4:23 am

Cat9x

Happy Birthday egm's brother! :)

4:23 am

mrpresident

happy birthday egm sibling !

4:23 am

egm

thankyou

4:25 am

Cat9x

pinrod should be a word, I don't know why, but it should be

4:25 am

mrpresident

I feel for her cousins who have had to go from Uncle Morris to Aunty Monica!

4:26 am

Dachef

do reckon the family is sat at the dinner table, and the kid says "can youpass the salt mum, I mean dad, I mean, aaaaarrgh!"

4:27 am

Cat9x

It's sad all around mrp. I do understand that people need to be themselves to be fullfilled, but do it after your children grow up. Your life is not your own once you have a child, sacrifices, we all make them.

4:27 am

Dachef

yeah, and she/he/it sacrificed a body part!!!!!

4:27 am

egm

i get it

4:28 am

egm

ha ha ha

4:29 am

Cat9x

Those body parts get people in a lot of trouble don't they

4:29 am

egm

even though its grose

4:29 am

mrpresident

Especially the ones they add! that can be confusing to some... I watch Jerry Springer...

4:30 am

egm

why did every body stop talking

4:30 am

Cat9x

Oh my, Jerry Springer. Thats like watching a train wreck

4:30 am

Cat9x

I'm trying to figure out the last words I need egm :)

4:30 am

Dachef

egm - I think everyone was busy thinking about body parts. Or maybe that was just me.

4:31 am

Cat9x

lol

4:31 am

mrpresident

LOL Dachef!

4:31 am

Cat9x

I think I hit the wall with 25 left.

4:32 am

Haz1558

Just before I leave for good - a true story. A little girl saw her baby boy cousin's nappy being changed for the first time. Her only comment was 'Isn't it a good thing that didn't grow on his face?'

4:32 am

Cat9x

I can't even seem to figure out the top row, left i...I must be tired

4:32 am

5:31 am

Eva

welcome masterp

5:31 am

masterpresident

thank you for saying that

5:33 am

JGalloway

do you guys have any D words if yes can you please help me

5:34 am

Aloyisius

Are you too old to play with a do**?

5:34 am

Eva

JGalloway-which ones to you already have?

5:35 am

JGalloway

i have do4/5, do5/12, do4/6, do4/5, do5/12, do4/5.

5:37 am

Cat9x

di4/5....when you tell your age, you say how **d you are

5:37 am

Eva

well, you have more than I do at this point. I have the barbie thing and its plural, the oddly spelled entryway and its plural, the back and its plural and that's it

5:38 am

Cat9x

do you have this do5/12, sounds like the fin of a fish, minus the last letter

5:39 am

Eva

thankas cat! Yes-have that one. Just missing one more. Are they all do's except the one di?

5:39 am

FMitch

good clues thanks!!!

5:39 am

Cat9x

all do's yes, with one di :) you're welcome!

5:39 am

JGalloway

what do you mean with your age thing cat9x

5:41 am

Aloyisius

Eva, I think you may be missing a do4 that is the weird spelling for the entry to a room plus a consonant that sounds like a little green veggie?

5:41 am

Cat9x

when we clue, the *****, serve as missing letters. If you add the missing letters to the first 2 of the word, you will have the answer you seek. Like pa*****, would serve as a pa7/?, what you wear to bed. See?

5:42 am

masterpresident

wow. 23 words and about to find more

5:42 am

Aloyisius

Yay, MasterP...

5:42 am

FMitch

good going masterp, you found those very quickly!!

5:43 am

masterpresident

mum and maddie helped me

5:44 am

Eva

aloysius-I'm confused-there is one entryway with the double consonant at the end which is a r. Then there is another just like it but with the snake letter at the end instead of the r. Is that what you mmeant?

5:44 am

kkiln

Cat ---i did not understand the fish fin for do 5/12? Any other clue?

5:44 am

Aloyisius

yes, but take off one of the double consonants and add the little green veggie..

5:45 am

Aloyisius

silly sounding word! I love it..

5:45 am

Eva

OHHHH-that little green veggie! DUH. Thanks for hanging in there aloysius. The d's are all gone now.

5:46 am

FMitch

sounds like it should be another name for a geek

5:46 am

Aloyisius

yes, it made me smile to monkeytype it..

5:46 am

JGalloway

can you please help me with the Ds

5:46 am

Eva

Now that I have it I remember the word from reading Doris Lessing novels.

5:47 am

Aloyisius

5:47 am

Eva

J-if you follow the thread between me and Aloysius, you should get another one.

5:47 am

FMitch

JG - you pretty much have clues for all the d's now in the log

5:47 am

Cat9x

ok kk, the entry to your home is the do**, minus one vowel, plus a beach has **nd, the gritty stuff, that will give you do5/12

5:49 am

Eva

anyhelp with the u's? I have the one of the 7's-the one that might cause a boat to drift away.

5:49 am

JGalloway

6:26 am

Eva

Merp is very displeased with me-still mmmphing around. His food was still frozen, so I mixed it with somse hot water to make a disgusting stew. He's not allowed to eat anything else, so will need to make do. BAD MOMMY for not taking it out of the freezer early enough. Yes, love your slogan Cat

6:31 am

Cat9x

I am a nightowl and a bit of an insomniac

6:32 am

Eva

6:32 am

Alien

6:34 am

FMitch

By Cat and thanks for the clues and the chat

6:35 am

Eva

good night Cat-hope you sleep until noon!

6:35 am

Eva

Alien-the temple one has 3 vowels

6:38 am

Alien

6:39 am

Eva

just found another-no4/5-like a kind of paste tomatoe, but with an n instead of an r

6:39 am

Eva

has a plural too!

6:40 am

Alien

i have the tomatoe-like ones....i need three more

6:41 am

Eva

if you have the tomatoe ones, and the 2 I gave you earlier, you should only need 2 more

6:41 am

JMann

how about a really thin person, like Kate Moss was called, but with an N at the beginning

6:41 am

Alien

oops---2more, right

6:42 am

Eva

just monkeyed another-like the new mexican city beginning with a t-but with an n instead

6:43 am

Merk

I thought, Whoopee, no long words. But sometimes the short ones are harder for me.

6:44 am

sha

all done bye guys

6:44 am

jean1953

6:44 am

FMitch

Hi Merk, it is actually quite a forgiving grid once you get into it.

6:44 am

Eva

congrat and goodbye sha

6:44 am

Eva

Much,much better than yesterday's grid. That was one of the worst

6:45 am

JMann

Of the 7 letter words - I only have 2 - both starting with UN... what's the other one?

6:45 am

Eva

Alien, did you find the other n I just found?

6:45 am

Eva

J-the other is a pr

6:45 am

Alien

nope, i still looking

6:46 am

Eva

The 3 big NM cities are Sante Fe. Albuquerque (sp) and T___. Change the t to an n

6:48 am

JMann

Eva - thanks, got it. Did you get the similar ending one about little tiles in a pattern?

6:49 am

Eva

no-I don't thnk I have that. Can you give me the first letters and count?

6:49 am

JMann

MO 6/24

6:50 am

Alien

aliens come fom roswell, nm....lol

6:50 am

Eva

what a nice gift JMann!

6:50 am

JMann

6:51 am

Eva

yes-nm should be right up your alley alien, or nebula, or something

6:52 am

Eva

18 left and shoulders are getting quite achey, so I'll have to stop soon. Missing a lot of p's and m's.

6:53 am

Eva

see you later everyone. Thanks for all the help

6:53 am

Aloyisius

6:55 am

jean1953

bye eva

6:57 am

Merk

It may be easy, but it's strange with no e or t. I am stuck on the final 'po' po5/12 and po6/21. Help please?

6:57 am

Aloyisius

nasty movies

6:58 am

Alien

is there a clue out there for the pr7

6:59 am

Kukana

expand the not nice po just before

6:59 am

jean1953

off for now bbl hopefully have a good day everyone:)

6:59 am

Merk

Thanks, Aloyisius. I thought of those, but couldn't see how to get to them.

7:00 am

Kukana

pr7 is a kind of everyday, unromantic word...

7:00 am

Merk

I was blind, went the wrong direction for my 'o'

7:00 am

Aloyisius

If you find something to be rather bland, Alien, you might say.. oh, how pr7

7:02 am

JMann

Merk - PO 5/12 is a plural of PO 4/5. But do you have a clue for PO 6/21?

7:04 am

Merk

There are so many words that if you find it with an 'm' you can change it to an

7:04 am

Merk

n

7:04 am

JMann

Alien - the PR7 word rhymes with a MO 6/24 word that means a bunch of little tiles laid out in a pattern, like on a wall or floor. Hope that helps.

7:04 am

Merk

It's a plural of the one above it.

7:05 am

Alien

ty, finally got it.

7:07 am

JMann

Merk - really, because none of mine do, but then again, I've got 13 more "M" words.

7:09 am

Merk

I was thinking of words where the m was in the middle or at the end. i.e. ro** and ro**, just change the final consonant from m to n. There are so many like that.

7:17 am

FMitch

Just incase anyone out there is going through the same thing my last p was the r on top of yr house and just put the p in front. Doh!!!!!!!

7:18 am

Aloyisius

I took a bagel break, and it helped, FMitch... (-:

7:20 am

FMitch

Probably a good idea Aloy, got 10 left to find....

7:20 am

Aloyisius

down to 5 for me...

7:21 am

JMann

any help on the Z or F (got the Fin the bottom corner, just working on the top corner)

7:23 am

Aloyisius

think animals for z words

7:24 am

Merk

You lucky ones! I still have 51 to go, but it's just 7:3o a.m. here. I shouldn

7:24 am

Merk

should not complain. I just need coffee to think better.

7:24 am

JMann

Got it, and the one meaning to speed

7:24 am

Merk

And type better

7:24 am

FMitch

LOL Merk

8:16 am

Anniebrook

Jacula

Afternoon all. Another football 'widow' here! I've put the shopping away but should now be making beefburgers, salad and other stuff for Himself's BBQ After The Match. *Sigh*

8:17 am

Haz1558

Hello hannah - how are you? And saphyre, your levels of patience were sorely tried this morning!

She sits by the shopping and looks mournful until you find her treats and give her something.

8:18 am

rolin

8:18 am

hannah lou

me good thanx haz u

8:19 am

Jacula

Thing is, re BBQ's, we women prepare and make all the stuff, the men then burn, sorry, 'cook' it and get all the praise! Humph!

8:19 am

Merk

Fireworks! A short puzzle for a beautiful day!

8:19 am

Haz1558

I'm fine, thanks hannah.

8:20 am

saphyre

It was all okay until moron came up - then I had to dive into the grid so that I wasn't mean! lol

8:20 am

Jacula

Well done, Merk.

8:20 am

rolin

jac...youre talking to an aussie...dont i know it...lol

8:20 am

FMitch

Hi Jacs
That is so true but it is the one time they feel in charge so you have to smile and let them get on with it.

8:20 am

Jacula

So I am, Rolin. I forgot that!

8:20 am

Jacula

FMitch - true.

8:21 am

Merk

At least they grill; you could have my hubby who is all thumbs...maybe can boil water. But he makes up for it in other way, thank goodness!

8:21 am

FMitch

Love yr icon BTW Jacs, visited the web site yesterday

8:22 am

rolin

i phoned my mum today... she said back where i used to live have recorded their all time low of -3degrees celcius... i didnt have a lot of sympathy considering how long we've waited for the sun this year

8:22 am

Jacula

Paul can actually cook, but he did burn the sausages on the last bbq.

8:22 am

Jacula

FMitch - It's a fun site, isn't it? Lots to look at and do.

8:22 am

hannah lou

good haz

8:23 am

ScoutsMom

good morning, everyone!

8:23 am

Anniebrook

Hi Jacula, what site are you referring to? Always looking for a fun site.

8:23 am

Jacula

Hello ScoutsMom.

8:23 am

Jacula

Annie - the one shown on my icon.

8:23 am

Anniebrook

Hi, scoutsmom

8:23 am

hannah lou

hiya scoutsmom

8:23 am

Merk

My question is ... my rankings are 981 and 977 .. will I have get to a thousand? It is so slow going, even when I do it everyday.

8:24 am

Anniebrook

Thank you, Jac, will visit later today

8:24 am

FMitch

Jacs - it is indeed, tried to come up with something for the neons but yours is just the #1

Annie click on Jacs icon to see a bigger image and that will tell you.

8:24 am

Merk

I mean, will I ever get to ...

8:24 am

Jacula

Merk - you will... eventually.:)

8:24 am

Merk

Jac, that is so cool.

8:25 am

Anniebrook

Mitch, Yes, I did. I love the icon. Saw the link too.

8:25 am

Haz1558

Yes, Merk, if you continue to finish every grid, you will ge there! (I feel a little pride, I remember helping you at the beginning...)

8:25 am

Merk

My goal is to get there in a week. Will I make it? I'm leaving he country for a month and this may be my last chance to be at a computer every day for a long while.

8:25 am

Jacula

FMitch - You could have something like 'RE's? AARGH!' LOL.

8:26 am

Merk

Yes, you did. I will recognize Haz forever and also be forever grateful.

8:26 am

FMitch

Merk - yes you will but only if you are selective when you play. If you think you can finish a grid then do it if not don't play as that will affect your ranking. However if you just want to play for fun then play everyday.

8:26 am

Merk

Since I've gotten serious and had the time, I have finished the grid everyday.

8:26 am

Haz1558

You were a very good pupil, Merk - unlike others I can think of!

8:27 am

Merk

Usually I fill in Lickety's page, just monkeying with the keys. When I get that full, then I type it into here.

8:27 am

Jacula

Haven't checked my rank lately, think I was about 15 (not including duplicate scorers) when I last looked.

8:27 am

FMitch

Jacs LOL that would be a good one for Ex-Wren, I did one that said Fireworks for Babblers but when I used it no-one recognised me as everyone is so used to my sunset icon.

8:27 am

Merk

So even if I were to miss a word to two or three, I should not type it into here.

8:28 am

Jacula

FMitch - I made an icon for Ex-Wren and mailed it to her a while ago. It said 'I HATE RE's!' She used it.:-))

8:28 am

Merk

Once I return, I'll be doing it for fun and brain activity, not for the ranking.

8:28 am

FMitch

No I don't think it is that harsh Merk - it's more like if its a 300 word grid and you only 100 that can affect the ranking

8:28 am

Haz1558

It always seems unfair to me that people who play but don't finish are penalised whereas those who don't play don't lose points. But I'm not going to lose sleep over it.

8:29 am

Haz1558

Merk - where are you going on vacation?

8:29 am

FMitch

I know Jacs I loved that and thas what remined me just now LOL

8:29 am

saphyre

3 to go.... I think I need help please. un 6/27?

8:29 am

Jacula

Haz., no. Like I keep saying about The Football (ducks as she types this): 'It's only a game!'

8:30 am

FMitch

Very true Haz it does seem unfair

8:30 am

Haz1558

Wash your mouth out, Jacula!

8:30 am

ScoutsMom

don't have to duck with me, Jac...I have it on right now and I can't seem to care...

8:30 am

kkiln

saphyre ---un 6/27 --- like either sex + a pea in a ***

8:30 am

musicmom

Haz I was just reading the log. You do lose points in the Cream of the Crop when you don't play.

8:30 am

Jacula

*Splutter* I was just swigging my last mouthful of tea as you posted that, Haz.

8:30 am

FMitch

just wish I wan't so competative (sometimes)

8:31 am

saphyre

thanks:)

8:31 am

Charm

Thanks for all the great chat, everyone. Hubby is glued to the tv and "just that silly game." Off to spend money while he's not looking. lol

8:31 am

Haz1558

I hope you didn't spray all over the keyboard!

8:31 am

musicmom

I left 18 words on that 300+ puzzle the other night and didn't lose anything.

8:31 am

musicmom

BTW - good morning everyone.

8:31 am

Jacula

Charm - Nice one!

8:32 am

Haz1558

Anniebrook

8:32 am

saphyre

8:32 am

ScoutsMom

good morning, musicmom!

8:32 am

musicmom

A lot depends on how many you leave and how big the grid is to start with ---- I think. It still doesn't seem fair.

8:32 am

Jacula

Haz - the keyboard needed a wash anyway.

8:32 am

rolin

does anyone have a clue for the ro5/10?

8:32 am

Charm

8:35 am

Haz1558

Good news! My daughter has been persuaded to put away the shopping in return for me accompanying her downtown to find (and pay for) a graduation outfit for her. Who has got the better deal?

8:35 am

musicmom

Crud. I did a huge shopping trip yesterday and now have discovered I forgot three critical things. Running out to the store. Be back in a bit.

8:35 am

musicmom

YOU did Definitely, Haz!!! I hate putting the shopping away.

8:35 am

Jacula

Haz - I think your daughter may well have.

8:36 am

Anniebrook

You do, Haz. The groceries are put away and you have the pleasure of seeing your daughter graduate. How divine.

8:36 am

ScoutsMom

haz, there are only so many graduations to shop for. Make a memory.

8:36 am

saphyre

I obviously am sleepy because I can't find the so 5/12

8:37 am

Jacula

My son only found the booking form for his graduation ceremony last week. He'd forgotten it, it should have been in a couple of months ago. Not sure if we'll get a place now!:-(

8:37 am

Haz1558

I'm sitting here with a smile on my face, so I think we are both happy with the deal!

8:37 am

FMitch

Haz, step away from the credit card now!!

What am I saying - go and have a great mum/daughter time.

8:37 am

rolin

asphyre...its usually used as *****ific = sleepy

8:38 am

Jacula

Rolin - Thanks! I was unsuccessfully going the 'somn...' route for that sleepy word.

9:37 am

Cathyar

JMann

oh sorry that was MO 4 (but the plural of it is MO 5), if you don't have those

9:37 am

9:38 am

JMann

gramma

fig that's a 6

9:40 am

JMann

9:40 am

fig

oops! i can't count... i meant the 6...duh.

Cathyar

gramma...do u also have the one that is not today or yesterday but to*****w?

JMann

9:42 am

fig

9:46 am

smilingface

9:46 am

Vicuna

I doubt he minds!

9:47 am

ScoutsMom

true, vicuna, but maybe Dan Brown would have something to say about it...

9:47 am

Vicuna

Dan Brown, and I hope I don't offend anyone here, is so unconcerned with accuracy that I don't much care what he has to say!

9:48 am

fig

historical fiction. or hysterical. true or not, a fun read.

9:48 am

ScoutsMom

Fiction writers don't have to worrry about accuracy; just sales.

9:49 am

Vicuna

Yeah, but it's a little lame to preface your fiction book with a bit about how it's all true!

9:49 am

harpjane

O clues?

9:49 am

harpjane

pretty please?

9:49 am

JMann

harpjane - try the by-product of poppies

9:49 am

ScoutsMom

although he probably could have worried about the gaping plot holes and wooden characters...but he was probably too busy cashing checks.

9:49 am

JMann

another one is like the killer whales, but minus the first consonant

9:50 am

harpjane

he, like liberace, is laughing all the way to the bank....

9:50 am

fig

someone chose to publish it. and millions chose to read it. it's just a book :-)

9:50 am

ScoutsMom

jmann - can't believe I didn't see that; that's scout's word for 'oatmeal.'

9:50 am

Vicuna

He has an undeniable talent for picking hot issues!

9:50 am

harpjane

or was it crying all the way to the bank?

9:50 am

ScoutsMom

i deny his talent. i didn't find the book controversial; just poorly executed.

9:50 am

fig

good point vic!

9:51 am

fig

lit crit and babble at the same time. we are all properly caffeinated this am.

9:51 am

JMann

then there are 2 OR 5's - one ending in what you put your hair, the other ending in ***-sided

9:51 am

Vicuna

The book WAS controversial. Not to you or me, perhaps, but to the people in a tizzy over it the controversy is real.

9:51 am

Cathyar

welll...gotta run with 55 left. have to pick up my son...bye for now all

9:51 am

harpjane

AT least we all agree it is fiction.

9:52 am

3:03 pm

nrkii

I'm still missing two PR 5 -- seems I already had the PR***reader -- ugh

3:03 pm

musicmom

Very helpful!

3:03 pm

LeslieAnn

minver, if you click on babbler's anonymous, then general, then stats. it is pretty much the same as lickety's, although easier to copy and paste

3:03 pm

mich_pdx

I read that Brandy hasn't been keeping it up because Lickety's list is complete and makes hers redundant

3:03 pm

musicmom

do you have the coupon word?

3:03 pm

musicmom

also not amateur +vowel

3:04 pm

nrkii

lately what I've tried to do is get as many words as possible without looking at chat or tiles

3:04 pm

jaianniah

MM< I just have to ask....Which is the coupon word?

3:04 pm

Dachef

the other pr5's - the pr4 whic is a plural - add an o to the end, and then short version of pr***tional.

3:04 pm

Erda

Thank you deb, Leslie Ann, jaianniah, musicmom and anybody I might have missed!

3:04 pm

musicmom

I do try to do without the chat for as long as possible nrkii. Not only do I not see clues, I don't get distracted into talking:-)

3:04 pm

mich_pdx

pr's -- plural boat, what advertisers do, plural non-amateurs + vowel

3:05 pm

musicmom

If a store is spotlighting a product it is a pr5

3:05 pm

jaianniah

Gotcha

3:05 pm

nrkii

I kept using PROPORTIONAL Dachef - LOL!

3:05 pm

nrkii

okay, one word to go = S

3:05 pm

mich_pdx

me too, I switch to "who's online" at first because otherwise it would take 4x as long, though I love the clues

3:06 pm

musicmom

I ALWAYS use the tiles:-)

3:06 pm

jaianniah

I understand, I mean

3:06 pm

nrkii

I have s6 and 3 s4

3:06 pm

musicmom

do you have the s5?

3:06 pm

musicmom

you're missing so 5/12

3:06 pm

Dachef

s5 - so***ific!

3:06 pm

nrkii

musicmom, sometimes, try without the tiles, it's interesting as a challenge!

3:06 pm

nrkii

no s5... let me look

3:07 pm

LeslieAnn

and if anyone would like to clue that s6, feel free :)

3:07 pm

musicmom

I will nrkii.

3:07 pm

musicmom

I will nrkii.

3:07 pm

musicmom

s6 - what you put on your feet -last letter+ not femail

3:07 pm

nrkii

Thanks for that last clue Dachef -- done!

3:07 pm

musicmom

CRAP -- female. THat is the second time today I have done that

3:07 pm

pam

nrkii--that's what I do, no list no tiles
Of course, I rarely finish but I find it more of an exercise that way

3:08 pm

mich_pdx

leslieann, it's the first syl. of european football, then syn. for guy

3:08 pm

nrkii

SHOMALE?

3:08 pm

Dachef

so6 - what you wear on your feet (under shoes) + male. Congrats nrkii!!!!

3:08 pm

debbinla

YIPEE NRKII

3:08 pm

LeslieAnn

what an odd word. thanks.

3:08 pm

mich_pdx

YAY nrkii!!!!!!

3:08 pm

musicmom

LOL nrkii

3:08 pm

LeslieAnn

hoooooray nrkii! doesn't it feel better listless?

3:08 pm

musicmom

BRAVO nrkii

3:09 pm

faeriekae

Congrats Nrkii!!!!

3:09 pm

nrkii

pam, I just try to get to <50 left without tiles, then I look at tiles and try to fill my tiles where I got no words or few words, then I go to chat, then... the list

3:09 pm

mich_pdx

okay, gang, I'm off to enjoy my Saturday...taking tomorrow off as I noticed a HUGE lag on Sundays & it's toooooo frustrating

3:09 pm

nrkii

LeslieAnn, not better, just more appropriate for today's grid I guess.... I figure if I'm getting such heavy cluing from the chat, it's like using the list anyways. :)

3:09 pm

Dachef

I tend to go tile by tile. Then if I find Im under 40 or so, I try to go listless.

3:09 pm

debbinla

i'm still not geting that so5

3:10 pm

LeslieAnn

that's a good point :)

3:10 pm

nrkii

by MICH!

3:10 pm

debbinla

have a great day mich

3:10 pm

LeslieAnn

bye mich

3:10 pm

LeslieAnn

debb, so + not rich but **** - an O

3:10 pm

nrkii

unless we all agreed to stop cluing like SO 5/12... etc

3:10 pm

Dachef

so5 - so + not rich, but ****. drop one of the double vowels.

3:10 pm

musicmom

bye mich

3:11 pm

debbinla

thanks guys - pass the fish

3:11 pm

Dachef

if we all agreed to stop cluing this game would boring in a hurry.

3:11 pm

LeslieAnn

that's not a fishy word

3:12 pm

musicmom

I don't want to agree to that Dachef. I get by with a little (lot) help of my friends

3:12 pm

nrkii

oh no, I wouldnt want us to stop cluing... I'm just saying that using the chat clues is a lot like using the list, because we tend to clue like "PU 5/14 is plural of the PU 4/6 that comes before it"

3:12 pm

faeriekae

great clues on the so5 I needed that one :)

3:12 pm

LeslieAnn

well, i will try the listless thing, and i know where to start. only have one 7 - the u. any clues for the others?

3:12 pm

nrkii

the cluing is the most fun part!

3:12 pm

nrkii

hi faerie!

3:13 pm

nrkii

leslieann, 2 UN 7

3:13 pm

faeriekae

Hi Nrkii excellent grid today huh?

3:13 pm

Minveryork

I am still new at this so I have to have a list. I try to get at least 500 point before I look at the chat log.

3:13 pm

LeslieAnn

grr i was concerned that might be the case :)

3:13 pm

musicmom

Hi faerie=how are you doing?

3:13 pm

nrkii

what you do with a new rug when you get it home + plural, and what you do to a boat to get it off the dock + plural

3:13 pm

nrkii

yes faerie -- just tough enough

3:13 pm

Dachef

pr7 - same ending as the mo6. Two un7's - try sticking un before your r's and m's.

3:13 pm

faeriekae

Music-I'm down to 36 to go I've been in and out all afternoon

3:14 pm

musicmom

Minver - used the list from the get go of many grids. Just recently have I stepped up the challenge. As you start to see and recognize babblets it is fun to turn up the heat

3:14 pm

faeriekae

Love the icons today!!!

3:14 pm

Dachef

gotta go. good luck guys. Day off tomorrow, so lets hope for a real monster grid - havent had one of those for ages!

3:14 pm

musicmom

I'm getting ready to go for a while. I have phone calls to make about camp next week and need to take Hannah to her GS event

3:14 pm

nrkii

minver, everyone does this grid the way that works best for them -- that's all that matters -- I just changed my process because I wanted to see how tough it would be without the tiles, and I find that I have fun that way, but it wouldnt work for someone else if they didn't have fun

3:14 pm

LeslieAnn

thanks. got the other u (the boat one.) i don't have an mo 6 so i will go hunting

3:15 pm

nrkii

I have not even been able to get fireworks yet,so I'll rely on the chat log and list until then. Maybe after I get fireworks I can challenge myself more.I'm hoping to get fireworks today,but I only have 866 points so far, so probably no fireworks for me today.

3:23 pm

3:29 pm

LeslieAnn

aha *jumps back into grid*

3:29 pm

Minveryork

oops - all together

3:30 pm

pam

nrkii--stepped away...I don't usually look at the tiles as I get too focussed then on what I "must" do. Same as the lists or cluing here. The clues on chat will catch my eye, true, but mostly I like to find as many words as I possibly can. I don't care so much about finishing as I do about the word challenges in general.

3:31 pm

helenkeller

nrkii - that's a great one !

3:31 pm

helenkeller

hiya hurshy :)

3:31 pm

nrkii

pam, one of the funny things I find about not looking at the tiles is that sometimes I will keep trying and trying to find more words off a tile that I've greyed out, but I just don't know it yet -- it's nice because it adds an element of healthy chagrin :)

3:31 pm

Minveryork

I would really like to get fireworks someday,but that will be awhile.I'm still new at this. I always see people getting fireworks and I want to see what it looks like

3:32 pm

LeslieAnn

how many words do you have left, minver?

3:32 pm

billmster

48 left giving up.Away from babble for week on holiday and no web!!!!! night folks.

3:32 pm

3:32 pm

Cat9x

3:32 pm

nrkii

night bill!

3:32 pm

nrkii

2 more PO cat

3:32 pm

LeslieAnn

i think minver said there are 8 po's

3:33 pm

Minveryork

I have not upgraded to pro yet, so I have no tiles to look at. I did have them during the first 2 week trial period,but I did not find them to be very useful at all.

3:33 pm

Cat9x

they should be a p5 and p6

3:33 pm

pam

nrkii--EXACTLY!!! 8-) I like to get half of the grid as my "minimum" and I always do get that rather easily enough. Then, it's the fun stuff... It cracks me up when I think there has to be a word starting with a certain letter, and voila, that lettter is greyed...

3:33 pm

nrkii

did you get the PO 5/12 and 6/21 combo cat?

3:33 pm

LeslieAnn

did you get the naughty ones?

3:33 pm

Cat9x

Hi JM, haven't gone yet, it's at 2:30, I will leave in about 20 minutes :) Looking forward to it!

4:03 pm

nrkii

Minveryork

My husband is a big died hard Yankee fan.We have a room dedicated to them. Has all Yankee parafanalia (sp?) in it.I think he cares too much about them.I do not care about baseball one way or another. Which is good because I grew up in Vt.I could've been a Sox fan.

nrkii

nrkii

4:16 pm

libarebel

4:16 pm

nrkii

4:16 pm

JMann

Minveryork

or 5/12 or + to cut off a part of something

4:20 pm

JeeWhiz

got them both...thanks again...

4:20 pm

libarebel

hmmm--just talked to SO--he said "we all share the bronx"

4:20 pm

debbinla

it has to do with a few things - like where you grew up - manhattan, bronx are yankee territory -- queens, brooklyn - met fans . i think it started with the old yankee/brooklyn dodger rivalry - then the dodgers left - the mets were born and the sad dodger fans all moved over to the mets

4:20 pm

Minveryork

or + kids sit in the parent's *** but change the vowel

4:21 pm

LeslieAnn

womb?

4:21 pm

nrkii

debb, I can understand not rooting for the Yankees as a Mets fan, but I don't get why Mets fans HATE the yankees, given the Nat'l league vs Amer league split.... I'm always happy when the Mets win, esp with Randolph there as manager. (Except when the mets beat the yanks)

4:22 pm

nrkii

orwamb, Leslie?

4:22 pm

Minveryork

Does anyone have a clue for the no 5/12 word please

4:22 pm

LeslieAnn

4:22 pm

Minveryork

4:22 pm

nrkii

4:23 pm

nrkii

4:23 pm

JMann

4:24 pm

JeeWhiz

4:24 pm

LeslieAnn

4:26 pm

helenkeller

hey, i'm back from sudoku, & was catching up on the chat ...... so i think this icon = previous icon, whaddya think?

4:26 pm

debbinla

it's strange - but really ingained from early on being a met fan ... (my parents/family were all brooklynites) -- also they say it has to do with the classes somewhat .... the weathier upper class are yanks fans and the working class are mets fans - not sure if that's true - but part of the fan history i've been told -- ALSO - sick and tired of the yankees being all over the news and the mets treated like second class citizens - ok, i'm boring everyone sorry :-)

4:26 pm

libarebel

ty, JMann for no 5/12--great clue!

4:26 pm

nrkii

nice helen!

4:26 pm

JMann

yw

4:27 pm

nrkii

debb, I can see that -- yankees get tons of press

4:27 pm

LeslieAnn

i thought you were a cubs fan, helen... these folks were trying to have a convo about the most tortured fans w/out the cubs!

4:27 pm

libarebel

that's ok, debbin!

4:27 pm

helenkeller

19 to go

4:27 pm

nrkii

oh I'd never claim to be more tortured than a cubs fan!

4:27 pm

JMann

so I'm still working on the O's - I've got OC 4/5, OP 5/16 and two OR 5/12? Any other clues?

4:27 pm

debbinla

gooo helenkeller!

4:27 pm

LeslieAnn

i've got 12 left, helen... what letters do you have left?

4:27 pm

libarebel

some mean peole call my team the "red sux"!

4:28 pm

nrkii

that is mean, and just wrong, as they obviously don't

4:28 pm

LeslieAnn

jmann, take your op 5 and change the p to another letter - that will get you two more

4:28 pm

libarebel

not even real people!

4:28 pm

debbinla

that isnt nice! and they certainly dont

4:28 pm

helenkeller

but i've been distracted by this financial guy on pbs - they are offering 2 day investment workshop in oct for 2 people $175 - this guy, donald trump, tony robbins & suze ormand - i'm thinking about it, hmmmm

4:28 pm

JeeWhiz

od5/16, rhymes with salt

4:29 pm

JeeWhiz

on5/14 rhymes with it also

4:29 pm

nrkii

hmmm helen, I dunno about that

4:29 pm

nrkii

it's not a lot of money initially, but I'd wonder about what came next

4:29 pm

JeeWhiz

I really like Suze Orman

4:30 pm

helenkeller

i need to not be a passive investor, but i need motivation

4:30 pm

LeslieAnn

yeah, trump would make you buy his cologne and bobblehead doll and hairspray in order to hear more

4:30 pm

debbinla

lol

4:30 pm

helenkeller

yeah, i've seen about 5 minutes of her & what she said made sense - but then i start freaking out & anxious & turn the channel

4:30 pm

libarebel

true, leslie! :D

4:30 pm

hurshy

here's an investment tip: get people to pay you $175 a head for investment tips

4:31 pm

nrkii

lol hurshy

4:31 pm

Minveryork

Some mean people say that Mets stand for My Entire Team Sucks.Even though I don't care about baseball, I think that one is funny.

4:31 pm

JeeWhiz

Hurshy, I was thinking the same thing...I think that is how a lot of the infomercial people get rich.

4:31 pm

libarebel

snake oil salespeople! :-[]

4:31 pm

hurshy

oh no sorry misread: TWO heads

4:31 pm

libarebel

LOL, Minver! :-D

4:31 pm

helenkeller

but what she said was: alot of us are afraid to deal with money (make active investments) because as children, our parents always told us "don't touch that, money is diry" - every time a kid would pick up money & put that money in it's mouth!!!! now that makes awful sense!

4:31 pm

debbinla

i sorta do to - and usually it has some truth to it - but not this year

4:31 pm

nrkii

huh????????

4:32 pm

hurshy

helen - i bet if you want my mom would be thrilled to teach you about investing for free.

4:32 pm

JMann

Ah, done with the O's - thanks LeslieAnn and JeeWhiz

4:32 pm

shutterbug

4:32 pm

nrkii

4:32 pm

nrkii

4:32 pm

LeslieAnn

4:33 pm

JeeWhiz

fi4/8

4:33 pm

nrkii

fi 4/8, fi 5/16

4:33 pm

helenkeller

hurshy - it's not so much about what to invest in, but how trends have changed since we were kids - how stock, mutual funds & saving are now the poorest & riskiest investments a person can make

4:33 pm

hurshy

also fo4/7

4:33 pm

helenkeller

it's more about learning to think differently

4:33 pm

JeeWhiz

plural for your fi4/7

4:33 pm

nrkii

peri, fi 4/8 4/7 5/16

4:34 pm
