Okay....so there's this weed that grew into a tree in our neighbour's back yard, and it is now carrying...something. It almost looks like a lime, but without a waxy coat. And it smells like a lemon, but once you cut into it, it almost has a pine smell to it. But you can't cut it all the way. There's some sort of hard rock-like thing in the middle.

Did you all get the attention-asking unword P4/5? Has been in quite a few grids lately.
3:12 am
Haz1558

Yes, but I wasn't going to tell anyone....
3:12 am

yes, the word with no vowels
3:12 am

attention-askin unword?

I am the sharing kind, I know.

hah! got it.
3:14 am

i was wondering how lickety updates so quickly for the new grids..?
3:16 am

Both lickety and brandjack have programmes they have written that generate the stats when they input the grid details.

Anyone got a clue for the si word please?

The warlike one?
3:18 am

ohh. i was thinking something along those lines but wasn't sure if it was a sure thing.. whether it would catch every possibility

Was that my clue, sprite, or were you talking to scv?

That was yours, hydra :)

i'm still in my first 24 hours of this babble stuff, not sure what are acceptable clues or what
3:25 am

No, don't think I saw it. I'm tacking the fe words now.
3:26 am

i've never seen it, either, actually. just popped into my head.
3:26 am
Haz1558

scr - clues can take lots of forms. Cryptic, references to general knowledge, play on words, anagrams, sound-alikes etc. You'll get the idea as you go along.
3:26 am

Just found a musucal 7/8 combo: So7/48 - 8/65.

Oh, well done, sprite! I haven't looked for that one yet.

Douglas is really funny. He gives out clues but doesn't tell you what words they are for. It works surprisingly often!

The Douglas clues are sometimes like a flypast - straight over the top!!!

Something I have noticed with our little flags. Some of the flags are for the UK and some are for England. And I have seen seperate ones for Scotland. I guess depending on where you live you get a choice. I would think if one lives in Northern Ireland, you would get either your own flag, or the UK one. Anyone know?
3:52 am
Haz1558

I know! I live in Northern Ireland, and have opted for the Union Jack. I think it is probably possible to opt for the Irish flag if you wanted.
3:53 am
sprite

And if the yoga does not help, try beating someone up, FMitch ;)
3:53 am

By the way, the Union Jack is the official flag of Northern Ireland since it is part of the United Kingdom.

3:55 am

Haz1558 - Thank. I knew about the Union Jack for all of the UK. I just think its so cool you can pick the flag you want for your area of the world. Kinda wish those of us in the US could use the flag for our states. But I guess that would be a bit much.
3:55 am
sydnie

yeah i spose so and if your sayin im havin a go at people thats just sad cause i dont !
3:55 am
Haz1558

We would get horribly confused with all the state flags! But I know what you mean. The US is so big and individual states have quite different 'personalities'.
3:56 am

France - scoring, playing or spectating at cricket?

I would welcome the chance to learn those different state flags, actually.

3:58 am

Well, the one in Arizona, would be a big star in the middle, with the lower half of the flag in blue, and the upper half being rays of yellow and red, like the rays of sunshine. Its quite nice :)
3:58 am
sprite

It would be nice to have those flags, I agree, boatierra. And see what just talking about flags does for people :)
3:58 am
Haz1558

Maybe it could be worked that you could have the stars and stripes so we knew you were from the States, and then have the state flag alongside. It would be educational!
3:59 am
FMitch

Maybe that could be an icon theme for a day for all in the US

But will Dr God like the idea? Maybe FMitch, as 'The Administrator' could put the suggestion to him.

OK, so I know that the Union Jack is used for the monikers UK, English, and Britian . So, why on here if one chooses to have the England flag, is it white with the red cross? I've never seen that one before.

It is meat (mostly beef) that is spiced, dried and cured, then eaten as a snack. Much like American jerky? When you go to Kenya you will no doubt come across it. They also do it with ostrich and venison.

Hullo all, and I agree with Hurshy (what else is new?)
9:51 am
ch1212

you said it hurshy -- I was on last night too (just not chatting) and went to bed late, then up early and back at it. I really needed Krysta's coffee :D
9:51 am
ch1212

Hello Miss Hetty!
9:51 am
hurshy

it's just cause you're so agreeable, hetty

I wouldn't choose to do babble at 2 a.m. believe me!

Guess I am lucky as flip time is 6am here in the UK

ch1212

Wow -- flip time in the Mountain Time Zone is 11 pm, which is late for me.

Cape Cod...upset tummy wouldn't let me sleep.

I think flip time is actually 1 a.m. here
9:53 am
hetty

Well hullo there ch1212. Just trying to change my icon--I've boobed again
9:53 am
hurshy

but cape cod isn't in a different time zone... i see, you weren't here at the flip
9:54 am
ch1212

Well, it's pretty... (unsure what it is) ? :)
9:54 am
FMitch

It a fractal isnt it hetty?
9:55 am
hetty

Every now and then the icon I choose gets itself squozen (hows that for a new word?) in the transference process
9:55 am
lizbethem

Now that we have that settled...hope my tummy settles soon...diving down into the grid to finish up...glub, glub
9:55 am
ch1212

see you when you come up for air, liz!
9:56 am
Vicuna

Hetty, if you choose something very rectangular, it always gets squozen into a square.
9:56 am
FMitch

Don't drink the water lizb!!!
9:56 am
hetty

and I don't know what "fractal" means, it being a cybernetic and not a literary term---
9:57 am
ch1212

It's a mathmatically generated pattern, Miss Hetty -- the patterns are generally quite beautiful
9:57 am
ch1212

And if I understand, each one is unique
9:57 am
hetty

Thanks, Vicuna, that helps. Now all I have to do is avoid rectangular images;thanks ch1212 for the info
9:59 am
hetty

I've submitted another image,but it hasn't come up yet. Seems I'm to be either squozen or eliminated
10:00 am
ch1212

you have to refresh, Miss Hetty, by hitting your F5 key
10:00 am
hetty

So no sundae for me today.
10:00 am
hetty

and refreshng doesn't change a thing--so far
10:01 am
lizbethem

What a surprise...my brain isn't functioning correctly! I'll try again later. bye
10:02 am
ch1212

doesn't for me either... so you went to the My Account, clicked on 'edit' under your current icon photo, then clicked on 'browse' (if new icon is saved as a file on your computer, otherwise clicked on the other button if new icon is something you found on the internet) and then selected the photo, then clicked on Upload?
10:03 am

Sorry got caught up by a phone call - ch1212 totally right re fractal.

Hetty I find sometimes once I have uploaded a new icon I have to refresh F5 twice before it takes.
10:05 am
hetty

I hope you realize I'm quoting W.S.Gilbert--I don't have any truck with classes myself
10:06 am

10:17 am
Haz1558

Good grief, remove the s from the tantrum and you have a tr4/5
10:18 am
FMitch

Haz - add a vowel at the end and then pl too
10:18 am
hetty

Tantrum--?
10:18 am
Haz1558

st5/12 hetty.
10:18 am
Haz1558

Thanks FMitch!

10:19 am
brandyjack

i've never heard it called a tanrtum, but I have heard of a leather st5/12 used to sharpen a straight razor....
10:19 am
hetty

ooo, I have st5/12, both of them, second works!
10:19 am
ch1212

That's what I thought it meant, BJ. Tantrum is an interesting word for it too
10:19 am
ch1212

Did you get fireworks, Miss Hetty?
10:20 am
Haz1558

Ah, the wonders of the English language! Is the tantrum a British word then?
10:20 am
FMitch

Ah that is a good alt clue BJ, the tantrum version is definately used for what youngesters do.
10:21 am
ch1212

Haz, the dictionary says it comes from Middle English, and is the strap BJ was talking about
10:21 am
Haz1558

The adjective form usually has a teenager attached.
10:21 am
hetty

AS one born and bred inEngland I have to say that as synonym for tantrum I know it not--only as leather what brandyjack said
10:21 am
brandyjack

leather belt and teenagers. Hmmmmmm......
10:22 am
hetty

but I do know the adjectival slang term (as applied often to teenagers)
10:22 am
ch1212

And the word Haz was saying to drop the 's' with has interesting definitions too: A figure of speech using words in nonliteral ways, such as a metaphor.
A word or phrase interpolated as an embellishment in the sung parts of certain medieval liturgies.
10:23 am
hetty

ch121, I'm a long way from fireworks--only jus started and am working backwards just for fun
10:24 am
harpjane

hello, could I get a clue for the gr6/30, gr7/44 combo? At least I'm assuming they are related!
10:24 am
hetty

ooh ch1212 that tr word is a literary term! No probs there
10:24 am
Haz1558

That's interesting - it's given in my dictionary as a colloquialism for bad temper.
10:24 am
ch1212

ah, and that would explain the reference to adolescents! :)
10:25 am
Haz1558

Exactly!
10:26 am
ch1212

I have 16 to go and a lot to get done today, so I'm going to be off hunting. Have fun all!
10:26 am
FMitch

Bye ch1212!!
10:27 am
Haz1558

gr6/30 - think of a colour beginning with b, a sandy fawn hue. Use the last letters of it and attach it to gr, then pluralise for the 7.
10:27 am
hetty

and I've found another tr5--in order to st*** a teenager, just grab him/her by the tr***es!
10:27 am
Haz1558

Bye ch1212. Have a good day.
10:29 am
hetty

Teenagers usually have long ones

10:33 am
Haz1558

so7/48 - a musical term. If you have the dental string, reverse the first four letters. Then add the first two letters of what a hen lays, followed by a vowel. The seven is the plural.
10:34 am
Jaime

my goodness! I don't know how you find these, Haz.

It was clued earlier on Jaime, though in a different way.

10:56 am
Jacula

ag6/24 & plural ag7/36 - if you specify how old someone should be to do something you might be this. Kind of anti old people.
10:56 am
Jaime

sure! take the 3 letter word that represents how old you are and add the last 3 letters of the joint between your hand and your arm.

10:57 am
stidmama

oh no! I hope you are feeling better soon. I really don't like digestive upsets...
10:57 am
brandyjack

I saw that clue last night, now I understand it.....
10:58 am
Jaime

did you get them, brandyjack?
10:58 am
Kenny Chuck

ch1212 - how about the word for something old that is in-vogue again? Something from the 30's or 50's or with a look that emulates that period might be called re***.
10:59 am
Kenny Chuck

Me, either. The worst. Looked in the yellow pages for a gastro-intestinal exorcist. None, to my surprise, exists. Bet they would do a bang-up job, money-wise.

well Kenny -- you probably already know this, but black tea can be very soothing in things like this -- decaf works, too. Wait for things like peppermint tea or juices until your system has settled down a bit.

We have lovely fish in UK. One of the advantages of living on an island
10:23 pm
hetty

ronnelee., did you get my clue?
10:23 pm
jillibus

Put a pat of butter in a teflon pan and fry the salted sole of a few seconds each side on medium. Put on the warm plate you've had sitting on the toster oven.

I grew up in a port city. My grandfather used to be a commercial fisherman. I became a real snob about quality seafood.
10:24 pm

*for a few seconds
10:25 pm
hetty

Can you tell me Riemann, what has happened to my favourite fish, hake?
10:25 pm
ronnielee

I am at 186 still showing that I am missing an GE 5/14, it has to be after the romantic verse & before the the GE 4/6?
10:25 pm
jillibus

Put some more buter in the pan and let it bubble. Add a squeeze of lemon and the toasted almonds. Pour this over the sole.
10:26 pm
hetty

Then I say again I guess it should be ge***--2 snakes and a fourth vowel
10:26 pm
abe79

i'm missing the same one ronnielee. i cannot get it...
10:26 pm
riemann

there's two spellings for the romantic verse. pluralize the correct one.
10:26 pm
hetty

abe you too--I GUESS SO
10:27 pm
abe79

i have that one hetty (but thanks for the clue!) i think i need the romantic verse spelling. i'll figure it out...thanks for your patience!
10:27 pm
riemann

another suggestion: there's an eg6/24. Drop the first letter and you have g5/14.
10:27 pm
hetty

just take away the fifth vowel and one of the snakes, forPete's sake
10:28 pm
ronnielee

I have that one hetty, licketys list shows in this order: GE 4/6; 4/7; 5/14 ( I have); 4/6; then (2) 5/14's & finally a 4/6.
10:28 pm
jillibus

I had baby potatoes (10 minutes simmering) and sugar sanp (mange-tout) peas done in the microwave with this, and a split of Henckel Trocken ("champagne"). Then fresh rasperries with plain yogourt for dessert, and made it all in half an hour to stid's storytime (well, almost made it)
10:29 pm
hetty

O.K.--the other one is French for gesture an dspelled almost the same. Do you know the novel "Le beau Ge***"?
10:29 pm

Isn't that Speedy Gourmet stuff?

10:36 pm
hetty

then gr6/3 and its plural gr7/44 are based on a sany colour--change from "b" to "gr"
10:36 pm

that should be sandy colour--like midway between cream and tan

leigh, I must tell you a little story. When I was 8 I went from a Brit school in Shanghai where we had prefects to an American school in NY and was put in 3rd grade, which was way behing what I had been doing at the Brit school, but fun. One day our teacher asked us if we knew any words beginning with "pre". Msny were given, and then she asked if anyone had another. After some thinking I stuck my eager hand up and said "prefect". No, she said, there's no such word -- you mean "perfect". I was stunned.

actually, when the us tennis open moved from forst hills to flushing, they took the singer bowl from the worlds fair.. it was a long oblong shaped stadium, and they put a squarish stadium over one end and the other end was the grandstands.
