stid - was he just roaming around?
12:35 am
stidmama
in the middle of the road leading out to the main road, running his little heart out. He didn't belong there -- there are HUGE logging and dump trucks that live on these streets.

2:49 am
mattygroves
Oooh....
2:49 am
Douglas
Yes, that is true...
2:50 am
hurshy
maybe it's a borg thing...

2:50 am
mattygroves
What's today's theme - anyone know?
2:50 am
Haz1558
And your clues can be helpful, Douglas. We all have our individual ways of cluing.
2:50 am
FMitch
The Swiss city/lake is the lu7/36, kock off the last letter for the 6/24 and just use the 1st 4 letters for the lu4/6 - and that concludes the lu's
2:50 am
Douglas
all of the above, some of the above...
2:50 am
mattygroves
You said a woooord Haz!
2:51 am
tazpink

2:52 am
jillibus
matty - today's theme is Icons of Mystery but I haven't looked for one yet -- I'm still remembering Treacle Toffee from childhood (yesterday's theme)
2:53 am
mattygroves
Another phantom - peach. Icons of Mystery? What's that when it's at home?
2:53 am
Douglas

2:54 am
jillibus

2:54 am
mattygroves
Does your favourite PA word mean minion?
2:54 am
Haz1558

2:54 am
jillibus

good morning everyone! 11 left and I am truly stuck. Think I'll leave those for tonight and then probably have to resort to lickety's list. I hate vowels!

i remember when i used to think a small grid would be easier. hah!
5:28 am

Hey there Cliff! Long time no see. How are you? How is your friend?
5:29 am
Eva
Merp ate a deer fly in the garden the other day (I had him out on his harness). I was so proud of him!
5:30 am
Eva
I know-my life is terribly eventful!
5:30 am
cliffopa
my friend is still hanging in there. some of his friends have arranged a concert with several area bands in his honor for Aug. 12th.
5:31 am
cliffopa
yay merp. one less deer fly!
5:31 am
Eva
Amazing! Will you have some sort of live feed to his room so that he can "be" at the concert too?
5:32 am
cliffopa
he lives in a home on a big piece of land - the concert will be staged in a field in back of his house.
5:32 am
Eva
I'm stil missing 2 6's. I have lu6/24. Anyone know what the others are

That's wonderful. I didn't realize that he was at home.
5:33 am
MG12
hey guys can i have some help with lu6/24?
5:34 am
Eva
MG-it's a lake in Switzerland, minus the final vowel, but put the vowel back on for the 7. Don't know what it isn't a proper noun, but it isn't
5:34 am
cliffopa
since there is nothing they can do for him at the hospital anymore, he wants to spend whatever time he has left in the comfort (and privacy) of his own home.
5:34 am
lynxxx
its a type of hay MG
5:37 am
Eva
it's great that he can manage that! When my mother-in-law was dying she was able to stay in her own apartment, and the hospice people in Boulder were unbelievable....both in taking care of her and in taking care of us, and helping to guide us through the voyage with as little fear and confusioin as possible. They brought in a massage therapist, offered a music therapist, were so incredibly respectful and calming. She died with 3 generations around her bed, in peace and dignity and without all kinds of unecessary medical intrusions.
5:42 am
cliffopa
that must have made things so much easier on all of you eva.
5:42 am
Eva
okay-resorted to the list. Got the ni6, but can't figure out the ch6. Anyhints?
5:44 am
Eva
got the pesky thing!
5:45 am
ExWren
Well, that's another one to hit the dust. I do like the smaller grids, which gives me time to do other things, especially in this nice weather we are having at the moment. It is unusual for us Brits, so we need to make the most of it!
5:45 am

congrats wren! So the heat wave has broken there?

I've opened lickety's list - I just have to control myself and only look at the first-letter part of it....
6:58 am
FranMag
peri, the others are rh7/40 and lu7/36.
6:59 am
FranMag
i messed up the triplet pretty badly!
6:59 am

6:59 am
periwinkle
NM have the rh one, just need the lu
6:59 am

7:00 am

7:00 am
FranMag
peri, it's also a type of alfalfa apparently.
7:00 am
FMitch
sprite, they are breeding in the heat.
7:00 am
amandacath
me either, peri, but it was the only combination that made any sense at all
7:00 am
FranMag

7:00 am
philod14
Thanks Fran
7:01 am
FranMag
yw philod
7:01 am
sprite
Either of you could be right!
7:01 am
FranMag
i think fmitch's explanation makes more sense! :-)
7:01 am
sprite
Or you could both be right! :)
7:01 am
KittyVane
I say it's the heat making them breed, it's so gosh darn hot here!
7:02 am

7:23 am
Charm
sorry, sandr, don't have it yet.
7:23 am
EvaNadine

7:24 am
Charm

7:25 am
featherbee
ch6/30 please?
7:25 am
amandacath
"Nor spell nor charm, Come our lovely lady n4/7; So, good night, with lullaby. Weaving spiders, come not here; H5/14, you long-legg'd spinners, h5/14!"
Guessing game time!
7:26 am
amandacath
I couldn't find one with a4/4 in it - that would have been perfect!
7:27 am
EvaNadine
CH6 -- first part sounds like C*** tea...second part sounds like "to leave" with an extra vowel on the end
7:27 am
featherbee

7:30 am
mattygroves
Why is it that sometimes the most obvious words are the toughest to get - I just spent ages looking for the sweet ho5/16 (trying g, c all sorts of letters) before finally stumbling on the obvious.
7:30 am
EvaNadine
20 left to go...i think its breakfast time!!
7:31 am
amandacath
I think that happened to the majority of us, matty
7:31 am
Praes
i'm right there with you matty, the other day on the 49 grid, i got smacked by a fish a lot....
7:32 am
FMitch
that is the bane and the perverse fun of babble I guess
7:32 am
Charm
ch7 please?
7:33 am
sandr
ch7 = facial feature + number
7:33 am
Charm
thanks, sandr - I monkeyed that without the final vowel, no luck of course!
7:33 am
sandr
i have 3 7's am i missing any?
7:33 am
FMitch
There may not be any volcanoes today but there is the voice that comes back and the other classic the Hawaiian goose (ne4)
7:34 am
featherbee
lu6/24 please?
7:34 am
mattygroves
got the goose!! No noone, though - strange...
7:35 am
amandacath
that goose just will not stick in my head - it's always one of my last ones
7:35 am
sandr
lu = switzerland
7:35 am
FMitch
just double up on the letters amanda
7:35 am
sandr
sorry meant to type town in swiss
7:36 am
amandacath
lu7 - last letter
7:36 am
amandacath
(that is supposed to be "minus")
7:36 am
featherbee
lol, amanda if i had the lu7 i'd be golden!
7:36 am
sandr
how may 7's?
7:37 am
featherbee

7:38 am
featherbee

7:38 am
FMitch
sandr, keep going, great job!!
7:38 am
featherbee

7:38 am
sandr

7:38 am
amandacath

I am an actress, so to speak, abe. But with no actual training - learning by doing. And I've decided it's time to take it to the next level, ergo the search for MFA programs

Thanks abe! I'll bet you do - if I go too long without it I get thoroughly batty! One piece of info - I will be a "non-traditional student" (I hate that phrase), which will almost certainly limit the programs that would take me
8:05 am
abe79
amanda- by "non trad'l" do you mean 1) part-time 2) didn't do undergrad theatre?

AT OU traditional v. non traditional is determined on the # of hours you are taking. Not on your age.

i think the only jobs that are more hours than theatre are 1) parents 2) young doctors 3) lawyers
8:11 am
musicmom
LOL Amanda - I was trying to avoid "old"

That's reassuring, abe. I keep telling myself they need people to play mothers, crazy aunts, aging actresses - whatever...

it's not prudent to tick off hench men. babble should allow it....for babble's own safety
