12:30 am

helenkeller

chic - i wish i lived in LA right now, just so i could help organize boycotts

12:31 am

MayneGuy

can't believe "snofie" isn't a word - just seems it shoudl be

12:31 am

chic

Let's send debb over with a sign or two!

12:31 am

mymuseisme

nite Ping! pleasant dreams

12:31 am

helenkeller

i think it's interesting arrianna huffington got involved, but i must say i agree with her, when the shows refuse to police their reality show contestants, then someone's gotta do it - i can't tolerate his remarks about women

12:31 am

debbinla

the evil guy won??

12:32 am

helenkeller

that's right debb- do us a favor would you?

12:32 am

chic

yes he did debb...

12:32 am

debbinla

sure! i'm on your side!

12:32 am

harpjane

lol Mayne Girl! snofie

12:32 am

helenkeller

yes debb - could you please go picket in front of his restaurant or throw a tomato on it, or walk your dog past it, you know, after feeding time

12:33 am

debbinla

yikes - what restaurant is it?

12:33 am

debbinla

lol helen

12:33 am

chic

good one helen

12:33 am

MayneGuy

dontcha think so harpjane?

12:33 am

helenkeller

debb rocks! yeah, there's another geat idea, throw some rocks at him!

12:34 am

jillibus

I don't watch "real;ity" shows - saw the first Survivor a bit and it seems to me they bring out the worst in the contestants and the nastiest win - horrible

12:34 am

gailinrb

back up, plz... who are we panning...??

12:34 am

helenkeller

there's a couple - dolce group- you can look it up on the internest - one is called dolce something, another is geisha house (i think) he's starting some in atlanta - he better not come here!

12:35 am

harpjane

I think snoz should be a word, too.

12:35 am

chic

at least Janie got the $25,000

12:35 am

debbinla

i don't watch it gail - but they're all talking about big brother - tonight was the last show and the guy who won seems horrible -treats women bad - and is just a pig (did i get it right?)

12:36 am

helenkeller

jili - some people's 'worst' is way, way worse than others -we got a real gem here :(

12:36 am

jillibus

gail - I think it's a nasty guy on Big Brother who won, name of boob or something

12:36 am

gailinrb

boob! lol

12:36 am

helenkeller

ok - boob works for me - lol

12:36 am

gailinrb

thanks. i don't watch much network tv.

12:38 am

Nef

I think the networks are really filthy these days; can't stand them at all

12:38 am

helenkeller

chic - yay for jani!! did you see how hurt she looked by the things james said - wait until she see the jase rap & wait until she see that will sat through the whole thing & didn't say anything at all - i feel bad for some of these people - the ones with sensebilities

12:38 am

MayneGuy

absolutely harpjane - snoz is another great word that shoulda been

12:39 am

firefly779

i tried "snoz" too ;)

12:39 am

chic

did you see how Boog and erika never hugged each other at the end ; they couldn't even look at each either....

12:43 am

helenkeller

chic - actually, i missed alot of the little stuff - i taped it & am going to watch it before i go to sleep - there are a bunch of people in pac & mount time zones that wren't getting the show live & our rgular play-by-play gal didn't show up, so i did it for them so they could know what was happening

12:43 am

FranMag

it'll sort itself out on it's own jilli, refreshing doesn't do anything.

12:43 am

nrkii

12:43 am

metaleather

Ithink so, for a short time

2:17 am

itzie

I think I finished, but I'm not sure because I didn't get any fireworks. I'm wondering if that's because I don't have pro.

amandacath

*without the c, of course

3:15 am

sprite

Seriously, I really thought sidhe was a word. For the elvenfolk.

3:15 am

metaleather

ditto sprite

3:15 am

Atalante

its Sidhe

3:16 am

sprite

Ah, okay. At least I am not crazy. Just disfunctional with capitals :)

3:16 am

amandacath

folt = foal + colt (I never can remember the difference between the two anyway, if there even is one, so why not just one word for both?)

3:16 am

sprite

isn't a colt a male foal? As opposed to filly?

3:17 am

metaleather

well, zion is a word, with or without the capital, although the dictionary does not agree

3:17 am

amandacath

possibly, Sprite - I never had a horse-phase, so my equinology isn't quite up to par

3:18 am

FMitch

foal is the offspring of a horse, filly is the female and colt is the male then they grow into mares and stallions or geldings if they have had their bits chopped off :)

3:19 am

amandacath

maybe the sidhe are with the ents, picketing to be included in the word list

3:19 am

sprite

colt:
1. a young male animal of the horse family.
2. a male horse of not more than four years of age.
3. a young or inexperienced person.

3:20 am

My favorite canon, meta. "By the waters of Babylon we laid down and wept for thee, Zion".

3:38 am

FMitch

mkl - ti4/4 rows or ti**s in a theatre

3:39 am

sprite

That's sad, Karys. I wouldn't know what to do if I lost my love. Carry on, of course, but it would be really tough.

Karys

PappouTed

3:48 am

Odin

Mornin' Y'all

FMitch

co7 & 8 - person who looks after cattle and pl

3:55 am

Haz1558

Bye Karys - see you later.

3:58 am

allfleshisgrass

more bovine? is that like more pregnant?

3:59 am

mkl

Think about Batman punching Joker. Big word in bubble over their heads

3:59 am

FMitch

and a z4 that is z + 3 vowels

3:59 am

FranMag

zo + t** (hot bev)

3:59 am

sprite

The z4 is like the babblet T4.
Means any of the free-swimming larva of certain crustaceans, as the crab, having rudimentary legs and a spiny carapace

4:01 am

amandacath

ah! gottem! Thanks all The babblet t gave it away!(which I was also missing)

4:01 am

Haz1558

4:02 am

PappouTed

4:02 am

sprite

allflesh, I do know people who are C6 than others :)

4:03 am

allfleshisgrass

the word is not in any dictionary I have access to

4:05 am

mkl

Last word till fireworks. Need help with co6,33. Pretty please

4:05 am

sprite

allflesh: it is in a couple of word lists, but I cannot find it specified as entry anywhere either. But the meaning is clear :)

4:05 am

sprite

mkl: more bovine!

4:05 am

PappouTed

think of the last 3 letters of the ti4 word

4:06 am

sprite

comparative of animal that goes Moooooo

4:06 am

Haz1558

co6/33 - insert a vowel into the quivering co5/20

4:06 am

mkl

Fireworks. But that was a stupid word

4:06 am

PappouTed

yay!

4:06 am

FranMag

yay mkl!

4:06 am

Odin

WTG mkl

4:06 am

4:07 am

Anyone else who needs clues?

4:07 am

sprite

*could very well be

4:08 am

M3

co 5 /22 please

4:08 am

metaleather

the re5/12s between the 4/5 and the 4/7. I've gone more cross-eyed looking for them

4:08 am

sprite

M3: snugly warm and comfy. Co6 is comparative.

4:09 am

FMitch

Is the co5/22 snuggly and warm - a US spelling? Make it more so for the 6

4:09 am

ExWren

Morning! I'm only just starting so just have one z so far

4:09 am

metaleather

good morning Wren

4:09 am

M3

thanks x

4:10 am

sprite

meta: take the word for standing up stiffly. Loose first letter. Put a different vowel at the end for the 2 words.

4:10 am

FMitch

Morning ExWren

4:10 am

PappouTed

hi wren

4:10 am

FranMag

fmitch, i'm thinking it's a tea co5/22?

4:10 am

Kateq

Morning, all!
FMitch the co/5 spelling is new to me

4:10 am

ExWren

morning meta, how is it today?

4:10 am

FranMag

hi kateq!

4:10 am

FMitch

Maybe it's just an alt sp then

4:10 am

metaleather

it's good today

4:11 am

sprite

Not too many Re-words, ExWren and you will find most of them easily.

4:11 am

metaleather

morning Kateq

4:11 am

FranMag

thanks for that co, i had the comparative, not that one.

4:12 am

Haz1558

re5/12 - to respond to a situation (don't know if this is the one you are looking for)

4:12 am

allfleshisgrass

The meaning is clear? Sure? More easily bovined? More herbevore? Without a definition, the word means whatever the user pleases. But, I belabor.

4:12 am

metaleather

ty Haz, but it's the two after that one

4:12 am

FranMag

haz, the other two re5/12s look like prefixes for squarish things.

4:13 am

FMitch

2nd re5 is the name for the right hand side of a book

4:13 am

metaleather

tytyty Fran

4:13 am

sprite

Did you see my clue, meta?

4:13 am

amandacath

...or like prefixes for colonesqe things

4:13 am

Haz1558

co*y is the adjective from which co6 is the comparative. It's indicated in online dictionaries as an adjective for the bovine. I agree that you can't make a comparative adjective out of a noun.

4:14 am

amandacath

105 words, is that right?

4:14 am

FMitch

yes amanda

4:14 am

sprite

Absolutely, amanda. Finished?

4:25 am

PappouTed

ah i remembered them but i had no idea it meant that. there is my learn something new for today! :)

10:43 am

cybernan

hurshy -- think of another word for upright - drop the first vowel and add a different vowel at the end for each word

10:43 am

Bugzy

Wait, there are 2 re5/12s together?

10:43 am

hurshy

this leaves me 2 more, an F6 and an S6 from the bottom.

10:43 am

Merk

Help please, 'fo 5,16'. Thanx.

10:44 am

hurshy

(i thought verso was a game, by-the-by)

10:44 am

hurshy

plural fish for merk

10:44 am

cybernan

fo 6/42: more like Henry Winkler's role on Happy Days -- drop middle consonant

10:44 am

Merk

Fish?

10:45 am

hurshy

the hitting oneself kind, not the word itself.

10:45 am

cybernan

sh 6: taming of the sh*** + consonant

10:45 am

klaurel

which S6, hurhsy, SE or SH?

10:46 am

hurshy

se, i guess :)

10:46 am

chj

the word re5/12 has more meaning than just to redo an act..you can re*** without ever having done an act in the first place

10:46 am

Bugzy

Are the 2 re5/12s at the beginning of the list, or right before the re4/7?

10:46 am

lmj643

sh6/36...clever

10:46 am

klaurel

SH - Sly and canny (or add a D to Shakepeare's Beatrice)

10:46 am

hurshy

AND plural fish for ME!

10:46 am

Hi there

ac6 and ac7???

10:46 am

hurshy

ty klaurel

10:46 am

chj

so in that sense i dont consider it like one of your normal prefix words

10:47 am

klaurel

Whoops, Got my shakespeare mixed up, I mean Kate

10:47 am

chj

like re** ...if you take off the re you still have a word...if

10:47 am

Hi there

nvm - got them...FIREWORKS~~~~~

10:47 am

klaurel

yay, hi!

10:47 am

cybernan

have you finished, Hurshy?

10:47 am

hetty

Good morning everyone. Sees to be a great babblet day today. I've found so many that give me the sense of deja-vu--to say nothing of enjoying re*** ve***conundrums! My own grnd to a halt has just come with one of the to5/1's. I have the turreted edifice. Any ideas about the other please?

10:47 am

klaurel

okay, have to run. Have to play with Powerpoint cfor awhile

10:47 am

cybernan

Congrats, Hi

10:48 am

hurshy

lol but in that case, chj, the word you are left with is completely unrelated. i think the re5 is different because it doesn't depend on you having done anything, true, but it does depend on some act having occurred.

10:48 am

hurshy

yes cnan i is done

10:48 am

Merk

I'm still here with the fo 5,16 and fish or not, I don't get it.

10:48 am

cybernan

congrats, hurshy

10:49 am

Merk

Congratulations, Hurshy

10:49 am

hurshy

arial, times new roman, comic sans MF, etc etc merk

10:49 am

cybernan

fo 5/16: pluralize the fo 4/7 before it

10:49 am

hetty

Merk, fo5/16 is plural of fo4/7

10:50 am

cybernan

Merk -- do you have 3 fo 4/7's in a row?

10:50 am

Merk

Oh I did something really stupid. I have that one. I keep typing into the wrong boxes. Thanx.

10:50 am

cybernan

sorry -- 4 4/7's in a row

10:50 am

hetty

Nan.do you have the second to5/18?

10:50 am

chj

but the normal and most comon use of re5/12 is not that something is being repeated...you are doing an act that may be totally different from the act that stimulated it

10:50 am

Merk

No, it's the 4,7 I am missing.

10:51 am

Merk

I have my enemies and the arial, times new roman.

10:51 am

hurshy

sure, it may be totally different, but it was in fact stimulated by some act. a4s are a4s, even if their contents are completely different.

10:51 am

cybernan

fo 4/7's: enemies, homonym for baby deer, type face

10:51 am

hetty

there are two fo4/7's--one is the Winkler character and the other the place where babies are baptised

10:52 am

Merk

thanx

10:52 am

hurshy

lol, chj, anyway, i am just arguing for the sake of arguing, i don't really feel attached to this position.

10:52 am

hetty

and also enemies)

10:52 am

cybernan

also an fo 4/5: offensive

10:53 am

cybernan

sorry can't type fo 4/8 = offensive

10:53 am

hetty

hursh or nan or anyone, do you have the to5/18?

10:53 am

hurshy

to5/18 add young golf prodigy michelle

10:54 am

cybernan

there are two to 5/18's: tall building and the one that rhymes with the yo and zo

10:54 am

hurshy

Hey Ree, are you there

So when you're happy (yay), or sad (aw)

an interjection starts the sentence right!
