this grid looks scary...i have a phobia for the ones with the Qu tile and too many vowels :O

12:12 am

LeslieAnn

at least the q's aren't bad, firefly, i finished those already

12:13 am

debbinla

i agree LA - they're not bad at all

12:13 am

firefly779

yeah, i can usually get them, i just get this awkward feeling with Qu grids, that's all - but i'm a little different... lol

12:14 am

LeslieAnn

i know, it feels like the grid is cheating if there's a qu in the middle of a word

Melon, I played cello in high school -- many a decade ago

12:22 am

melonheadjujube

wow, a fan club ;)

12:22 am

melonheadjujube

cool, ARB - any of your kids play?

12:23 am

ARB

One daughter played for the year before we made aliyah (35 years ago last month)

12:24 am

ARB

She was 10 years old and even the 3/4 cello was a bit big for her, but she loved the sound.

12:24 am

melonheadjujube

35 years ago - wow. how did you decide to make aliyah? a lifelong dream?

12:24 am

melonheadjujube

my nephew started on cello - his teacher is my stand partner - she's the string teacher at his school.

12:25 am

melonheadjujube

he's small for 10, has a 1/2 size - his mo is stunned that he sits still long enough to play, active as he is.

12:25 am

ARB

Bunch of things, including the agonies of Northern California in the wake of the Hippie movement of the late 60's .

12:26 am

ARB

Even beginner cello sounds not bad, if the kid is bold enough to bow it

12:26 am

melonheadjujube

California. funny how one will develop a mental picture - no matter how wrong-headed - i think of olim as coming from the east coast!

12:26 am

melonheadjujube

true - cellos don't screech.

12:27 am

ARB

We were midwesterners who moved to Marin county in 58 (brought a little Yiddishkeit) .

Hi haz

3:18 am

Haz1558

Good morning all. The site seems to be working for me today.

3:19 am

FMitch

Good morning Haz, you made it today!

3:19 am

Haz1558

I did indeed. I finally managed to get on yesterday evening, got the grid finished and then was booted off again. Was it something I said?

3:20 am

mattygroves

I wonder if I can get six more words for my 100 before I get in the shower...

3:21 am

FMitch

It was a strange babble day yesterday, glad you made it though.

3:22 am

Haz1558

It wasn't a grid to make you pleased with life, that's for sure. This one looks happier.

3:23 am

FMitch

It is, when you find a word try all the available ending and most of the time they take.

3:24 am

mattygroves

The time they take?

3:25 am

FMitch

most of the time the word is accepted

3:25 am

Haz1558

I'll bear that in mind. I've only just noticed that po4/6 as in Victoria Beckham is sh4/6 (as in retail therapy) the wrong way round. Any connection, do you suppose?

3:25 am

mattygroves

Oooohhhh

3:27 am

5:42 am

mattygroves

Thanks mags...

5:43 am

magzel

yw matty

5:44 am

Jencatd

pl6.21 - is a tool, and se7.32 is not silly.

5:44 am

Kateq

pl 4 = ballet move
pl5= ballet move plural
pl6 = common toolwhich builds on pl 4

5:45 am

Takuma Sato

heh, Jen. The first time I read your clue, I thought it said "se7.32 is not, silly" and I thought "well that's not very helpful...

5:47 am

lynxxx

TY Kateq - I just got about a dozen words after those clues

5:47 am

magzel

need the other 6/21. have the tool.

5:48 am

Jencatd

lol, Takuma. :D

5:49 am

lynxxx

PL 6.21 - I think it is a fabric - build on ' 'taking the **** out of some-one' (hope that isn't too rude for you)

5:50 am

Kateq

the other pl 6/21 is an anagram of the pl 5 (plural) with an extra s
one of those "no entry" in the dictionary words

6:00 am

FranMag

Takuma Sato

the first one means having to do with a particular kind of lyrical activity

6:02 am

Kateq

it is a little used word--literary rhyming

6:03 am

Kateq

and it is a plural

6:03 am

Takuma Sato

6:03 am

Kateq

the singular form ends in the sometimes vowel and is not in the puzzle

6:03 am

Takuma Sato

heh, I just wanted to make darn sure you knew it was plural

I had tried it without the final consonant, the French word for verse, and it wasn't accepted so I didn't try the plural

10:31 am

And I forgot that there was the po7 that is the bouquet...

10:31 am

Done, done & done!!!!!!!

10:33 am

KMS

10:33 am

bostonmermaid

KMS, think a "pocketful of po****" and insert the second vowel

10:33 am

movieman

By the way, bostonmermaid, they say that most of the hot weather came over from La France, so how was it for you?

10:33 am

This is too tough, not having a word list. With 29 to go, I'm taking a break. Perhaps my word list will return to me later.....

10:37 am

Actually, Jai, the p7/32 is the art of po**** (po4 made into the art form) pluralized, has nothing to do with flowers.

10:37 am

ladynoire1013

yeah, they do that

10:37 am

movieman

That's global warming for you, Rolin (either that, or by some strange quirk of fate, the whole country has been moved a 1000 miles or so closer to the equator)......LOL

10:37 am

bostonmermaid

yes pdb, the days blend together, you forget what day it is, you forget what your last name is... you just park yourself in front of the fan and pray

I was in Wales one winter when they got a *dusting* of snow, not even a half-inch... and I watched in amusement as the entire country plunged into paralysed hysteria... no one would drive, the shops all closed, flights were delayed...

It's 'cos we're not used to it, boston.......that's why the whole county goes apeshit......

They have occasionally closed schools here before any snow actually falls - just the anticipation of snow.

10:45 am

bostonmermaid

you could barely *see* the snow on the pavement, and it had snowed for all of 20 minutes... but for the next three days my hosts and I had to huddle inside and just hope the phones were working and our food would last...

Just in the intrerest f definition, the first po7/32 had nothing to do with flowers. It's the plural of the term for the art of poetry, which--were the top left corner letter were a "y "instead of an "rwoukd be recognizable Hebrew fashion, reading fom right to left along the top row of letters. --yw

10:53 am

jillibus

speaking of snow (well, you were) - snow in BC is very different from that in Quebec or New England. Here it's greasy and much more slippery so an inch or two is much more paralysing -- besides, roads don't get cleared quickly as they do in real snow country

10:53 am

Terms about po**ry are very peculiar-- for example the craft of the po** is called "prosody"--go figure

10:54 am

that's true jilli...

ShadeEagle

okay, I *think* I only need about 50 words, but I was working on the board away from the computer, so I'm not sure

12:33 pm

CadFan

ok - I need the so word - saw a clue about fish and dirt but it got me nowhere....

12:35 pm

featherbee

sorry, not there yet cadfan

12:36 pm

Vicuna

If there's only one so word, then a fish clue related to it would be boulobaise. (or however that's spelt.)

12:37 pm

abe79

cadfan- so 7/32. dirt + to attract someone

12:37 pm

CadFan

why is hourlies not recognized? I have 4 hourlies that work for me!

12:39 pm

Vicuna

(oh boy, the more I look, the more so- words I see...)

12:39 pm

CadFan

gonna have to think a while.. finally got the dirt part though

12:39 pm

abe79

Vicuna, t here are 2 so 7/32 and one so 7/28

12:40 pm

CadFan

I have the 7/28 - working on the others....

12:40 pm

abe79

actually, i'm a liar- there is one so 7/32 and one so 7/28

12:40 pm

CadFan

the other...

12:40 pm

CadFan

LOL

12:40 pm

Vicuna

Thanks, abe. I made the mistake of offerring clues before getting very far myself. I have all those now. :)

12:41 pm

abe79

i've reached a total standstill in getting more words, so i figured i'd help out with 7's

12:42 pm

Vicuna

Plus the 8 which is pl of the 7/32, CadFan.

12:42 pm

featherbee

vic, i love your squirrel!

12:43 pm

Vicuna

Thanks, feather. I know how he feels!
Is yours for real? Can you really catch squirrels on a line? I'll have to try some time!

12:43 pm

featherbee

hee, google search the phrase "squirrel fishing" and you'll see where it came from

12:44 pm

CadFan

sometimes one truly does make things too difficult for one's self. Not me, mind you, but some. ROTFL

12:47 pm

Charm

Hello, all. just stopping by.

12:48 pm

Vicuna

Hello, Charm. Happy Birthday!

12:48 pm

Vicuna

Oh, oops. not happy birthday, Happy anniversary of joining!

12:48 pm

davurs

I need help with the is5/10 folks. Thanks.

12:49 pm

Charm

Why, thank you, Vic! I had to look at my own profile to see what you were talking about. lol

12:49 pm

Vicuna

is5/10 - is + first three letters of machine to measure earthquakes. (It means a Japanses immagrant.)

12:50 pm

Vicuna

(Holy moly, my typing is atrocious. But I think it's all decipherable.)

12:51 pm

davurs

thanks muchly vicuna - got it. Sheesh I knew that word in any case...

12:51 pm

Charm

It doesn't matter, Vic. I read somewhere that we don't read each letter; so long as the 1st and last letters are correct, we can understand.

12:51 pm

Charm

Feather, are you still here?

12:52 pm

featherbee

yup

12:52 pm

Vicuna

Now that you mention it, I must have seen that same thing, Charm. But my typing does not always spare first and last letters!

12:52 pm

featherbee

i've seen that first and last letter thing before! a whole paragraph messed up, but readable

12:54 pm

Charm

We were talking the other day about authors, and LK Hamilton in particular. A couple of others you might like are Lynn Viehl and JR Ward. I suggest Ward with reservations because she gives her characters' names unnecessarily silly spellings and sometimes her writing doesn't flow. But she has created an interesting alt. universe.

12:54 pm

featherbee

oh, cool! yeah, i tend to glaze over odd names. if i can't pronounce it, i make something up

12:55 pm

Vicuna

It's sometimes funny to find out how people pronounce their own Babble names, since I often have been thinking something completely different in my head.

12:56 pm

Charm

I thought a vicuna was a kind of animal (a fox?)? Or am I just in a world of my own?

12:57 pm

Vicuna

It is an animal. It's related to a llama. But I was responding to feather's comment on the names of characters in books.

12:58 pm

featherbee

yeah, we were talking once about nrkii's name, and general agreement was we say "nerkie" in our minds

12:58 pm

Vicuna

I think of it as nerkie-eye.

12:59 pm

featherbee

hehe!

12:59 pm

ShadeEagle

hey - help with the pl 6/21? (the one in the middle; not the tool)

12:59 pm

davurs

my better half says my log name sounds like cadaver...oh dear...

12:59 pm

featherbee

sorry eagle, don't have yet

12:59 pm

abe79

i have it, will clue momentarily

12:59 pm

Vicuna

Don't worry, davuers. I wouldn't have thought of that.
... But I will now! :)

1:00 pm

Vicuna

(Sorry, mistyped davurs.)

1:00 pm

abe79

p + rhymes with smooch + vowel

1:00 pm

Charm

pl6/21 = p + girl's name (sorta kinda). I think it sounds like an old fashioned jacket/coat for a woman.

1:01 pm

Charm

Hello abe. sorry, didn't mean to step on your toes.

1:01 pm

ShadeEagle

awesome, thanks

1:03 pm

torgone

This won't help, but the def. is "A puckered finish given to fabric by treating it with a caustic soda."

1:03 pm

featherbee

interesting, thanks torgone!

1:03 pm

ShadeEagle

...and the po's are now causing me trouble. well, I have most of them, at least. getting the p's finished before I take a break (I think I have ~10 of them left)

1:04 pm

ShadeEagle

and that's ...well, about a normal-type definition for here, isn't it?

1:04 pm

Charm

later everyone. have to supervise lunch.

1:05 pm

Vicuna

Bye, Charm. (Which I pronounce "chair-um.")

Just kidding!

1:05 pm

featherbee

lol vic!

1:45 pm

ShadeEagle

1:45 pm

mattygroves

I need Ss and Ts as well. No fours, just 3 fives, 4 sixes and one seven. Shall we start with the seven? So7/28 and it's probably associated so6/18

1:45 pm

1:51 pm

mattygroves

Mee - I do - think of an alternate spelling for what you might put on pancakes

1:51 pm

Vicuna

si5/14 - alternate spelling of boiled down maple sap?

1:51 pm

mattygroves

I'm working on the si5/12 and the si6/21

1:51 pm

torgone

Put it on your waffles ..

1:51 pm

torgone

1:57 pm

mattygroves

Or they might - who knows - I don't have them yet!

1:58 pm

ladynoire1013

Now to work on the so's

1:58 pm

torgone

A hat they wear in Canada, eh?

1:58 pm

Vicuna

to5 and to6 are chef's hats

1:58 pm

mattygroves

What's the canadian hat - the tos...?

1:59 pm

torgone

Canadian chefs eh?

1:59 pm

hana-chan

where is the 8 letter word?

1:59 pm

ladynoire1013

chefs hats have names?

1:59 pm

mattygroves

*~*~*~*~*~*Fireworks*~*~*~*~*~*

1:59 pm

mattygroves

Why Canadian chefs, though?

2:00 pm

ladynoire1013

Yeah Matty

2:00 pm

Vicuna

Roger, Bill, to5 are their names, ladyn!

2:00 pm

Vicuna

Without actually knowing any French, I believe the word is simply French for "hat."

2:00 pm

torgone

It's a chef's hat OR what Canadians call a wool watchcap

2:01 pm

mattygroves

Well, what a day - my 15 year old was married - kinda...and I'm now going to watch Angel. Anyone need a clue before I go?

2:03 pm

Vicuna

Your daughter is a lovely bride... if perhaps just a trifle young!

2:03 pm

mattygroves

2:10 pm

bgmadden

soul

2:10 pm

hetty

I've been reading the comments about Canadian chef's hats with great amusment, as an English bilingual Canadian I have never heard the word applied to a chef; in colder parts of Canada people, especially children, wear to**** in the wnter--a woollen cap that pulls down over their ears pronounced ----t--long oo--k

2:10 pm

bgmadden

oops I am so very sorry everyone

2:10 pm

Flask1

Haven't done them yet Lady!

2:11 pm

Flask1

Hi Hetty....how are you?

2:12 pm

Ho Hum

bgm - if you haven't already had a look at Angelsongs Resource link under Friends of Babble at the bottom of the page. Lots of hints and tips there.

2:12 pm

ShadeEagle

so 7/32 - dirt + fishing bait (there's a letter overlap)

2:12 pm

hetty

So, Vicuna, I think as always you are right--french for a winter hat

2:12 pm

ladynoire1013

Shade, just got that one, weird word

2:13 pm

Flask1

Hetty is there another clue for it?

2:13 pm

hetty

Hullo Flsk and thanks for asking. I have post-op exam this p.m. which I am rather dreading--ask after that!

2:13 pm

Flask1

Oh......I shall cross everything ....just for you!

2:13 pm

ladynoire1013

french for a winter hat? now that one I don't get

2:15 pm

torgone

Thanks flask!
Cadfan - south bay

2:15 pm

hetty

yes--it rhymes with Yorkshire pronunciation of "book" and after the "to" you go to the poblematic rarely used sQUare followed by a second vowel

2:16 pm

hetty

Look at the cue, ladynoire

2:16 pm

ladynoire1013

ah, gotcha

2:17 pm

Flask1

Excellent clue....but I already had it...:(....its the to6 am looking for!

2:18 pm

CadFan

2:19 pm

ladynoire1013

Yeah, all the So's are done

2:20 pm

ladynoire1013

pluralize the french hat

2:20 pm

CadFan

4:33 pm

evanonut

4:34 pm

Cathyar

4:34 pm

stidmatt

Hi Cath!

4:34 pm

TheFiz

And the eyepatch is a nice touch. Do you think a squirrel can have a parrot on its shoulder?

4:35 pm

evanonut

hmphh! crosses winged arms, i meant after i improved my icon.

4:35 pm

Flask1

Am gettin' there Cath, thanks....yourself??

4:35 pm

Cathyar

4:35 pm

evanonut

hmmmmm

4:35 pm

kkiln

Flask --- I am talking about the word for dirt + to tempt someone....so 7/32... the last letter of the first compound word is the same as the first letter of the second word....just add an s for the plural.

4:36 pm

Cathyar

huh fizz? sounds scary...the boyfriend had one of those in his cottage all winter!! squirrel poop everywhere come springtime

4:36 pm

aunt may

eeeeeeeeeeee's eeeee's e's are all i see!!!

4:37 pm

Cathyar

4:37 pm

Cathyar

4:37 pm

katusha

4:37 pm

Flask1

kkiln....I am not getting it!

4:38 pm

Cathyar

me neither...don't have the compound wd

4:39 pm

kkiln

flask -- the word for dirt + lu 4/5 --- it is really a compound of so 4/4 and lu 4/5.

4:39 pm

TheFiz

the first word is "dirt", the second something you use to entice fish - just omit the second "l"

4:39 pm

evanonut

okay - rabid flying squirrel hopped up on drugs with a hoop and patch now has a pet bird.

4:40 pm

TheFiz

Nice work Nut!

4:40 pm

Flask1

Got it thanks!!

4:41 pm

evanonut

4:41 pm

Cathyar

4:42 pm

Flask1

Cath it starts with the S in the centre of bottom row and work your way up!

4:42 pm

TheFiz

LOL Cath - sad, but true.

4:42 pm

Cathyar

lol...at first i didn't even see the dirt word!!! (course i did just return to the game)

4:43 pm

TheFiz

*looks sadly at short list* It's a good thing the real point of babble is all of you guys!

4:43 pm

Flask1

I couldn't see the dirt word either.......lolol

4:43 pm

Dorens

hi... clues for the first si word?

4:43 pm

kkiln

Glad you got it!

4:43 pm

Cathyar

ya...i love the chat...i often forget about the game in chatting on so!!

4:44 pm

Flask1

thats why I rarely see fireworks.......cos' I can talk too much!

4:44 pm

TheFiz

It's *really* hard to concentrate when you're being attacked by a rabid, etc. flying squirrel, too.

4:44 pm

Cathyar

had everyone thinking i was a depressed sort the other nite tho... i'm really not!!!

4:45 pm

libarebel

4:45 pm

libarebel

4:45 pm

Cathyar

k...bk to the grid for a few...

4:45 pm

Dorens

having driven around there two weeks ago, I take my hat off to anyone who drives in Boston

4:45 pm

TheFiz

Glad to hear it, Lib. My sister just flew out of Logan and it took her 2 1/2 hours from my house with the detours....

4:46 pm

Dorens

and that comes from an experienced manhattan driver

4:46 pm

featherbee

ok, i'm not quite ready to grab the list, but i'm missing a huge amount of Ps. I have 7 PLs, 12POs, 1PS, and 6 PUs. Can someone just point where I have holes?

4:46 pm

kkiln

Dorens -- hard to clue...si + currency used in Europe today without the last vowel.

4:46 pm

Dorens

thanks kkiln....french for sir

4:47 pm

libarebel

I've bee n told by people in my hometown (lowell, ma) that I drive like a cabbie...

4:47 pm

Dorens

you have all the pl's feather

4:47 pm

libarebel

used to boston...

4:47 pm

featherbee

ok, good, that helps dorens!

4:47 pm

stidmatt

Just having a brain blast. Maybe on one of the days when we don't have an icon theme scheduled we should use Science Fiction!

4:47 pm

Dorens

missing one po

4:48 pm

Dorens

and a lot of pu's

4:48 pm

featherbee

so a bunch of PUs looks like

4:48 pm

Cathyar

i know feather......going thru the list can often be a chore when sometimes monkeying could work

4:48 pm

libarebel

it was when I cut someone off & then routinely thanked them...

4:48 pm

Dorens

yes, there are like 18 of them!

4:48 pm

featherbee

thanks! yeah, i'm down to 43 left, and am not quite ready. i probably will be after i monkey around with these Ps some more

4:49 pm

libarebel

40 left... tough one, I think...

4:49 pm

Dorens

try manhattan. libarebel....no matter what anyone says, it's ten times easier than boston... and easier to find your way around.

4:49 pm

Dorens

i'm down to 12....but don't know if i'llever find them

4:50 pm

TheFiz

Word up, Dorens. I'll drive in Manhattan any day over Boston. RI isn't any better, though - just less dense.

4:50 pm

featherbee

wee, just got 6 PUs in a row!

4:50 pm

Dorens

on a roll feather....

4:51 pm

featherbee

see, sometimes that's all you need....a nudge...

4:51 pm

libarebel

drove in manhattan once-- easy-- streets are not cow paths

4:51 pm

Dorens

exacto!

4:51 pm

libarebel

in boston they just paved the cow paths-- true

4:52 pm

Dorens

4:56 pm

Dorens

4:56 pm

Cathyar

4:56 pm

kkiln

4:57 pm

TheFiz

Dorens - check the log for evidence of nut's innocence....

4:57 pm

Dorens

innocent, that's good nut.....but i've been around here for a couple of weeks, so just slightly skeptical!!

4:57 pm

Elalyr

4:57 pm

Cathyar

4:57 pm

evanonut

4:58 pm
