Angb

Half way and only 1 hour in ... yippee. Have come up for air.

1:12 am

tazpink

hi fran

1:12 am

jan

This grid seems a lot easier than the last couple--lots of the kind of long words that you actually find outsdie a Babble grid...

1:12 am

sprite

Great crowd again :) Hi all, *hugs Jilli*

1:13 am

FranMag

hi taz! hi jilli!

1:13 am

sprite

You mean there is a world outside our babble grids, jan???

1:13 am

FranMag

1:13 am

tazpink

1:13 am

SueMagee

He must be wrong, sprite!

1:14 am

sprite

It comes as a shock, actually!

1:15 am

SueMagee

If you're not careful it can dominate your day!

1:15 am

ARB

Now you tell me

1:15 am

72 Temple Owl

good night , everyone! see you later!

1:16 am

Angb

Absolutely Sue ... need to find some survival mechanisms - not doing the grid however is not an option.

1:16 am

SueMagee

It's only taken me four months to realise, ARB.

1:16 am

sprite

night Temple :)

1:16 am

FranMag

night TO!

1:16 am

ARB

bye TO

1:16 am

jan

I know what you mean, SueMagee--I've had to discipline myself to go to bed instead of trying to finish the grid...but tonight I think I might see fireworks before hitting the pillow.

1:16 am

SueMagee

Not doing it is a non-starter. Er, yes, well it would be, wouldn't it?

1:17 am

FranMag

angb, where is your window from?

1:17 am

sprite

I am SO grateful I live in a zone where the flip is in the early morning.

1:17 am

Angb

Lincoln cathedral - my favourite cathedral of all time.

1:18 am

FranMag

i'm afraid to click on your profile, every time i've done that today my computer locked up.

1:19 am

Angb

I didn't change my profile. Too hard - hate reloading the grid

1:19 am

jan

Actually, I don't mind that the flip is at ten pm where I am. I can easily justify digging in right away, since it's too late to work, then I can take up the grid again in the morning with fresh eyes. And, if I haven't finished before work, I still have a little time after work to try again...

1:20 am

sprite

Yeah, but I am not so sure I would have the discipline to stop working the grid before bed...

1:21 am

jan

Good point Sprite. I'm embarassed to admit how late I sometimes find myself Babbling...

1:21 am

ARB

I keep trying to tell myself I have all the day to do the grid, and to get the other things out of the way first, but No, there I am working away all morning and resenting the list of What To Do Today

1:22 am

sprite

At least, dear gang, we do it in good company!

1:22 am

ARB

It's one of the reasons we do it, my dear

1:22 am

FranMag

my flip is at 7 pm which for me is perfect since i don't go to sleep until 1 or 2 am.

1:23 am

GadareneSwill

phantom: quantophrenia

1:23 am

True ARB :)

1:23 am

sprite

LOL Swill! Yeah, that jumped out at me right away too.

1:24 am

tazpink

midnite flip here always red eyed in the am

1:24 am

Colhad

ea6/18, the time when Jesus died and rose again 3 days later

1:24 am

Angb

6pm for me ... means that dinner is .... late ... cooked (if that's what you call it) by my partner ... or done when I get a block

1:25 am

tazpink

yea found one 9

1:25 am

sprite

So your poor partner is always hoping for a block?

1:26 am

Angb

He can wait a long time ... however it is one thing I know he will do around the house ... his stomach gives out.

1:26 am

ARB

me too, Taz -- pl

1:26 am

Angb

Oops said a word!!!!

1:26 am

tazpink

yup pl here too

1:27 am

sprite

Yep, you did. Thanks :)

1:27 am

FranMag

thanks arb and taz!

1:27 am

ARB

I assume the other one is an re -- odds on.

1:27 am

sprite

What does your 9 start with?

1:27 am

Angb

Yep ...

1:27 am

tazpink

sure

1:28 am

ARB

pl, Sprite

1:28 am

sprite

LOL! I thought that meant plural... now I understand.

1:28 am

sprite

Thanks :)

1:29 am

jan

I've got both 9's--one starts with p, the other with r, and they're both related.

1:29 am

Bloo

yes arb it is

1:30 am

mirandapan

the other 9 is an re, but it plays off your pl 9

1:30 am

GadareneSwill

pl and re ... in lieu of wallpaper

1:30 am

ARB

TY Jan

1:30 am

sprite

miranda said a wo-ord ;)

1:31 am

mirandapan

Oh, yikes!!! sorry

Got them both, thanks

1:31 am

FranMag

thanks jan!

1:32 am

debbinla

reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaally late flip - hi everyone !

1:32 am

jan

The Qu is a source of lots of great words--both starting with Q and using the Q internally. Usually I hate Q's, but not tonight.

1:32 am

sprite

hey debbs, laila tov.

1:32 am

ARB

Hi debbi

1:32 am

sprite

1:32 am

tazpink

1:33 am

Angb

Hi debb

1:33 am

GadareneSwill

q's are only good if they mind their p's

1:33 am

debbinla

i'm at dinner thinking - wonder how many words are in the grid tonight - hehe

1:33 am

jan

I think my least favorite letter is C--they give me fits. Funny, until I started Babling I didn't realize I had letter preferences at all...

1:33 am

ARB

hehe Gadarene. By the way, what shortened name do you prefer?

1:33 am

sprite

and dot their i's and cross their t's?

Debbs, face it... you're an addict :)

1:34 am

debbinla

:-)

1:34 am

GadareneSwill

swill works

1:34 am

SueMagee

I think we're all addicts, sprite!

1:34 am

tazpink

1:34 am

sprite

Yes, you all are, Sue :D

1:34 am

1:35 am

SueMagee

1:35 am

ARB

1:35 am

GadareneSwill

1:35 am

jan

C'mon, we can quit whenever we want. We just don't choose to.

1:35 am

sprite

lol Swill

1:35 am

debbinla

not a bad thing to e addicted to - babble and the mets...

1:36 am

sprite

As long as I am typing words and chat messages, I am not eating chocolate. I think I found a very healthy cure to my addiction :)

1:36 am

FranMag

yay! greyed out a box!

1:37 am

Angb

7. 30 and I am getting hungry - cold BBQ leftovers in fridge will be dinner tonite.

1:37 am

jan

You must be happy how the playoffs are going, debb, with the Mets winning and the Yankees, not so much.

1:37 am

Angb

I have the bottom left R box greyed out Fran ... LOL

1:37 am

debbinla

1:38 am

Kitensplay

1:38 am

Yes, I know the feeling when there's a tantalizing prefix or ending but you can't find a way to use it. Seems a waste of Babble resources.

2:04 am

the worst part of that is that I can't stop looking until I am certain there are none... and I won't know until I have all the U's :)

wow jan - thats amazing!

2:18 am

jan

Usually I'm not fast at all. But for some reason words just came tumbling out of this grid. There don't seem to be many unusual ones. (Unless you count the 2 s's and the r I still don't have...)

2:20 am

Atalante

I love 8 letter words containing qu

2:22 am

sprite

jan, I just found an Sh5/14 that ends in two consonants. It is a bit odd.

2:23 am

FMitch

I love any 8 letter words Ata (when I can find them)

2:23 am

jan

Ooh, I bet that's one I'm missing, because I don't have one of that description...so, unleash the monkeys!!

2:23 am

Atalante

true! same here FM :)

2:25 am

It comes right after the first Sh4/6, jan. That word + consonant.

2:25 am

Douglas

Hello everyone...

2:25 am

sprite

Hi Douglas

2:25 am

jan

Ah, thanks Sprite. That sh/5 definitely qualifies as a strange one. I just googled it and it relates to a Jewish school--perhaps the plural?

2:26 am

tazpink

Sorry Taz? Do you mean the one that Sprite just clued?

2:29 am

Atalante

phantom: reverie

2:29 am

tazpink

yes jan

2:31 am

jan

The five letter word builds on a four letter sh word that means a school for Jewish learning. I suspect the % letter word is its plural--though the consonant ending isn't a usual plural ending for English words.

2:32 am

jan

Oops, that % should be a five, of course...

2:32 am

tazpink

i thing my problem is i dont have hte 4 letter word for school

Flask1

Oh Haz wasn't it WONDERFUL!!!!

3:39 am

Bloo

oh yeah i did flask - sorry, was lost looking for more words

3:39 am

Wolvie

good morning all - another biggie I see

3:39 am

Haz1558

I had to look twice at the Scots score-line. Not that the Scots take their football seriously or anything.....

3:40 am

sherb

let's not go there, Haz...

3:40 am

Angb

Hi Wolfie .. it's good though

3:40 am

Flask1

Don't think we'll be flooded with too many red 'n' white flags today.....!

3:40 am

Atalante

did anyone else watch Robin Hood last night?

3:41 am

Haz1558

Sorry sherb, I couldn't resist a little mischief. I'll be good from now on.

3:41 am

Haz1558

Sorry sherb, I couldn't resist a little mischief. I'll be good from now on.

3:41 am

Flask1

Too busy watching the Football....

3:41 am

Bloo

es 7 & 8?

3:41 am

FMitch

Was it that bad then?

3:41 am

sherb

0-0... against Macedonia...

3:41 am

Haz1558

It depends, FMitch. They probably didn't live up to their own expectations.

3:42 am

Bloo

oh found em

3:42 am

Haz1558

Or did they?

3:42 am

FMitch

Ahh, oh dear.

3:42 am

sherb

es7 - a man's magazine... and past tense...

3:42 am

Angb

Football? Don't you follow rugby?

3:43 am

Bloo

thanks sherb, got it :D

3:43 am

Flask1

Yes Angb....I was brought up with rugby!

3:43 am

Angb

All Blacks are coming your way at end of year.

3:44 am

Haz1558

I prefer to watch rugby, Angb, but follow the football results out of curiosity to see what's happening.

3:44 am

sherb

why does that sound like a threat...

3:44 am

Flask1

Should be good....be to see them many times!

3:44 am

Angb

We don't follow football here - we do too badly

3:44 am

sherb

:)

3:44 am

Haz1558

We'll try to give them a few hints and tips.

3:44 am

Flask1

been*

3:45 am

Angb

Did you not hear sherb - many players getting injured in our local games LOL. Bit of a worry

3:45 am

Angb

Was reading today where Euro clubs are offering huge sums for our forwards

3:45 am

Haz1558

Does that mean there will be a lot of rugby players looking like the shaky qu8/70?

3:46 am

Atalante

am in a very NZ mood today, working on a picture based on Maori things :)

3:46 am

Angb

I hope not.

3:46 am

Flask1

year

3:46 am

Angb

Ata - that sounds interesting - do you paint

3:48 am

Douglas

Ooh...I'm past halfway!

3:48 am

Atalante

draw usually, but wandering off into watercolour for this ... a site I play on has a monthly theme challenge to paint/draw/sculpt/whatever, this months theme is witches and wizards. I'm always expected to do something *different*, so this month I'm doing a few pics based on more traditional shamanism ideas. Inuit and Maori first, then Aboriginal Australian if I get the time!

3:48 am

Haz1558

The pirate fans will be pleased to see av5/16.

3:49 am

Angb

Talented ... sounds like. I would dearly love to be able to do that sort of thing. So you are getting into taniwhas?

3:50 am

Odin

They will indeed Haz

3:50 am

Odin

What site is it Atalante?

3:50 am

FMitch

I smiled when I found that one Haz

3:51 am

Haz1558

And did you attach 'me hearties' to the end of it?

3:51 am

Atalante

www.john-howe.com

3:52 am

Odin

Thanks.

3:52 am

FMitch

actually I thought of the old joke av*** behind.

3:52 am

Wolvie

I like the me hearties touch. :-)

3:53 am

Haz1558

It'll be interesting to see how the word is clued today - or maybe people won't need clues. But keep your big bum one ready!

3:53 am

Atalante

not this time, Angb, though I continually come back to Maori-esque designs, one day I will! This one I've decided to base on the Oho rangi rite done at birth - its a nice easy one to illustrate what's going on!

3:53 am

lynxxx

I'll say goodbye as out for diner - enjoy this one, seems quite OK. Later.

3:53 am

Colhad

arrr, be boardin ye ship me hearties, ye all be walkin the plank!!!

3:53 am

3:53 am

Odin

Bye lynxxx

3:53 am

Haz1558

The pirates have arrived.....

3:54 am

Odin

I'll check out the site, thanks.

3:54 am

Odin

avier

3:54 am

Haz1558

I LIKE this grid.

3:55 am

Odin

Ooops!

3:57 am

Angb

Ata sounds like you could teach me a thing or two about maoritanga. But the culture is a beautiful and natural one

3:57 am

FMitch

Not sure I echo your sentiments Haz

3:58 am

Atalante

I really don't know much - I learn as I go along, but that learning is helped by having a huge respect for the culture!

3:59 am

Haz1558

I'm still in the first flush of finding sequences etc. Maybe you're further along and feeling more cynical?

3:59 am

Angb

I have always loved the story of Parihaka. Reckon it must have been one of the first sit down demonstrations, in the face of an army.

4:01 am

sherb

I'm slowing down now... time to get the paper and Starbucks...

4:01 am

Odin

Starbucks did help!

4:01 am

Atalante

have you been to Cape Reinga? I'd love to go there - the traditional jumping off point from this world to the spirit world

4:02 am

FMitch

Just over half way and time for a break I think, enjoy the grid and happy babbling.

4:02 am

Wolvie

bye FM

4:02 am

Odin

Thanks FMitch

4:02 am

Haz1558

You're much further on than me, FMitch! See you later.

4:03 am

Haz1558

I should go too - short bursts of babble today.

4:03 am

Angb

I have never been. But a lovely story also. It reminds me of a book I read about Druids - ley lines. Where the Tor was a nexus of leylines and rejuvenated life.

4:03 am

Wolvie

bye Haz

4:04 am

jaianniah

I have very quiet fireworks....don't want to wake everyone who is still in bed!

4:04 am

Atalante

4:05 am

Odin

WTG jai

4:05 am

Wolvie

4:06 am

jaianniah

TY all !!!!

4:06 am

Angb

Aaah - Ata. No wonder you are going to Glastonbury

4:06 am

Angb

Not that I mean you need rejuvenating.

4:06 am

Atalante

I think thats right anyway, depends on who you believe and if you believe! and ley lines are lines of power that run through the earth

4:08 am

EnigmaNeko

thanks, atalante...it was just that i heard the term leyline in an anime series that i watched awhile back and was curious as to what the word meant since ya'll were on the subject of leylines

4:08 am

6:05 am

ARB

Any clues on the first la 5/10?

6:05 am

FranMag

Ankhorite

6:06 am

Ankhorite

6:06 am

FranMag

6:06 am

faeriekae

Hi ARB :)

6:07 am

6:07 am

mattygroves

That's the Qs taken care of. Watching Angel at the moment

6:07 am

Ankhorite

AH! And the past tense did it for me on my last! Txs!

6:08 am

Douglas

Why are people saying "past tense of strange?" Strange is an adjective, not a verb...

6:08 am

Ankhorite

Does he have his clothes on, Matty? Shame on me, but I like Angel best...undressed.

6:08 am

ARB

Shalom Wolvie.

6:08 am

FranMag

past tense of make strange then.

6:08 am

mattygroves

Oooh..drool....

6:08 am

Douglas

Ah...better now...

6:08 am

mattygroves

Spike is my cup of tea..

Ankhorite

Doublas, sometimes you just know something has qu***** the deal.

6:09 am

mattygroves

Wouldn't mind a slurp

6:09 am

FranMag

angel? are we talking about david boreanz?

6:09 am

Ankhorite

it STINKS that the finale killed Spike! Shoulda killed that useless whiny Dawn! She was "The Key," after all.

6:09 am

Ankhorite

Yeah, Fran. :)

6:09 am

sherb

Douglas - because qu5 can be a verb as well as an adjective...

6:09 am

mattygroves

Ahhh...but watch season five of angel

6:09 am

mattygroves

We are, Fran.

6:09 am

Douglas

I don't like using ***** as a verb, because it already has connotations as an adjective...

6:10 am

Ankhorite

Oh? Hmmm. Thank you, Matty. And on television, did anyone notice the Battlestar Galactica premier was about... Iraq?

6:10 am

FranMag

ooh, then i totally agree, angel is yummy!

6:10 am

Ankhorite

Yeah, but we're stuck with it, Douglas. I think it goes back to the original etymology.

6:10 am

mattygroves

AAKKKK. I don't get the new Battlestar til I don't know when in the UK - akkkkk!

6:11 am

Douglas

Any hints on the last qu 7/40?

6:11 am

Wolvie

sort of hard to miss, ankh. :-)

6:11 am

Ankhorite

Matty: it was excellent. But I won't say more if you don't want. Yeah, Wolvie, that's what Dear One said, they kinda hit you over the head with it.

6:53 am

FranMag

arb, got the sh4/6, clue for the sh5/14 please?

6:53 am

Ankhorite

heh, "shtup" phantom!

6:53 am

ARB

I just got them because there was no other way to find words at that part of the list without that combination.

6:53 am

Colhad

do the es words involve the Q at all??

6:54 am

Frances

Yes

6:54 am

Douglas

Two of them do, Colhad

6:54 am

Ankhorite

Col, I told you: get a lawyer.

6:54 am

ARB

Fran, it's a yiddish plural, not an s.

6:54 am

Ankhorite

An attorney. A solicitor.

6:54 am

Douglas

That doesn't help me, ARB

6:55 am

ARB

Doug, If you have the sh 4/6, you have to add a single 1 point letter to get to the sh 5/14.

6:55 am

FranMag

thanks ankh!

6:55 am

Colhad

6:58 am

hydra

Hi everyone. Anyone got a clue for the first la5/10? Just can't see it!

6:58 am

Ankhorite

I know, Frances, Col, but in the States, female attys use it just as the men do. Always in the three-letter abbreviation. Besides, no one here really knows what it means/meant; they think it's shorthand for lawyer.

6:58 am

FranMag

hydra, it uses a double vowel.

6:58 am

FranMag

sounds like la*** the cable guy.

6:58 am

Douglas

It's a decree of a Muslim ruler...

6:59 am

Ankhorite

Bye, Wolvie.

7:01 am

FranMag

hydra, how about sounds like la*** mullen jr. from U2?

7:02 am

10:20 am

stidmama

10:20 am

Enomis65

10:21 am

stidmama

10:21 am

Enomis65

actually I can not beat cauz"s clue - that's capital!

10:21 am

cauzneffct

could you stumble it my way?

10:21 am

brandyjack

change it to past tense....

10:22 am

Enomis65

can you make me stumble on it too stid???

10:22 am

Enomis65

10:22 am

ch1212

colhad, stick the 4th letter onto the end

10:23 am

cauzneffct

au+ variation of spelling of moo cow

10:23 am

stidmama

Enomis -- in musical terms, a note that "wiggles" is a qu 6/36. "one who" does that is the 8/70. The 6 rhymes with "shave"

10:23 am

Enomis65

dax: au + not mono but ****, drop last letter

10:23 am

brandyjack

au7/32, one who lives with bare minimum of material goods....

10:24 am

pabtrek

re5/14 please

10:24 am

cauzneffct

qu 7/40? after one who is most qu 5/16?

10:24 am

brandyjack

actually, the au7 is the condition, the au8 is one who lives it...

10:25 am

brandyjack

qu7/40, one who askes too many questions....

10:25 am

stidmama

and enomis, if you take the first real vowel in the qu 8 I just clued, and replace it with a different vowel, you get another 8/70...

10:26 am

Dax

thanks everyone.

10:28 am

stidmama

10:38 am

brandyjack

Colhad, the 6/27 before it is one who does it, the 6/30 is what has been done.

10:39 am

Colhad

11:41 am

Haz1558

qu8/55 is the most peculiar of the qu words. The next qu7/40 relates to someone asking a question.

11:41 am

Scrabbler

Odd, then past tense, then comparative then superlative

11:41 am

12:14 pm

msilver620

Oh my G-d I entered the word in the wrong place. i'm sorry

12:16 pm

msilver620

Do I get kicked off or something?

12:16 pm

FMitch

Oh heck, could have done without that but at least you were local, hope they all get better soon faerie

12:16 pm

sherb

only if you do it on purpose, msilver... :)

12:17 pm

WordsRock

Wish you'd done that with a word I don't already have, silver. ;)

12:17 pm

sherb

otherwise, none of us would be here today...

12:17 pm

KnightRider

to cris4 u SUCK

12:17 pm

hurshy

msilver... you have the option to put yourself in the penalty box if you wish :)

12:17 pm

msilver620

It was purely an accident. And I even figured out the word without the clue I had just asked for just a moment ago

12:18 pm

sherb

but that can't be the one you asked for, msilver... the points are different...

12:19 pm

hurshy

msilver had you meant 6/27 or 6/36?

12:19 pm

msilver620

Words, I wish I could but I'm so new at his and not very good. Usually my 11-year-old helps me but she's not home or that wouldn't have happened. She's better than I am. Give me one that you don't have.

12:19 pm

mkl

ee5,10?

12:20 pm

hurshy

spoooooky

12:20 pm

ursh

and spoookier

12:20 pm

msilver620

I'm not sure which one I meant. I'm just happy that one went.

12:21 pm

mkl

es7,40 and es8,60? PLEASE?

12:21 pm

hurshy

ah, we make a good team ursh

12:21 pm

hurshy

mr. james q. worthington, es7.

12:21 pm

msilver620

What is the penalty box? Doesn't sound like something I'd be interested in though.

12:21 pm

sherb

es7... men's magazine... and past tense...

12:22 pm

sherb

it feels like Groundhog Day... I must have clued that about six times in the last 8 hours...

12:22 pm

hurshy

msilver...it's just pretend... like the fish... and the jacuzzi (which we haven't used for a looong time). you just say you are going to the penalty box if you put in a word, if it amuses you to say so.

12:22 pm

mkl

Thanks sherb. It's obvious once you know the word

12:23 pm

sherb

this place has got very dull lately... no more jacuzzis, champagne, food fights...

12:23 pm

msilver620

I'll pass the the penalty box this time because it was an honest mistake.

12:23 pm

hurshy

i still use the make-out closet with tor sometimes though sherb

12:24 pm

hurshy

it generally is an honest mistake... except for trolls...

12:24 pm

msilver620

I have to ggo and pick up Sarah. She is horseback riding for the first time at her friend's house who has horses so I hope she is still in one piece.

12:24 pm

sherb

hmmm... he gets about a bit...

12:24 pm

hurshy

ooh, horses, fun!

12:25 pm

hurshy

why? who'd you see him making out with behind the gym?

12:25 pm

msilver620

I live in an equestrian community but I'm not in that part of town, unfortunately. There is a polo arena over there so alot of horse people.

12:26 pm

sherb

who DIDN'T I see...

12:26 pm

hurshy

that two-timing....

12:26 pm

hurshy

or lots-of-timing....

12:26 pm

msilver620

I'll change my icon to my beautiful Sarah.

12:27 pm

hurshy

msilver - i dunno if i'd recommend putting pictures of your young daughter up on the internet, even though babble is a pretty nice place...

12:28 pm

hurshy

perhaps i'm being overly cautious

12:29 pm

hurshy

pluot is so a word! it's a cross between a plum and an apricot, isn't it? i've seen 'em in the store!

12:29 pm

GreyWoulf

Good afternoon -- how's everyone today?

12:31 pm

GreyWoulf

So is anything going on in Babbleonia this past week? -- I haven't been able to play since Tuesday

12:31 pm

msilver620

I'm leaving for a while and I have to pick up Sarah. i wanted to check if the icon changed to her picture. It may be too many pixels.

12:31 pm

GreyWoulf

Fmitch!

12:32 pm

GreyWoulf

{*Hugs to hurshy, sherb and Fmitch -- plus anyone else who wants or needs one*}

12:32 pm

FMitch

You haven't missed anything the grids have been rather large (too big for me)

12:32 pm

sherb

my first game since last Sunday... I'm only an occasional babbler these days... :(

12:32 pm

GreyWoulf

pretty much the same for me, sherb

12:33 pm

msilver620

yes. it's too big. her face looks kind of squished. She's much cuter and she's a very good babbler and getting an early start.

12:33 pm

GreyWoulf

Although work is getting a bit easier right now -- the primary cause for stress at my job was let go on Friday last

12:34 pm

FMitch

Ah so things might be easier going forward?

12:34 pm

Colhad

12:35 pm

well my boyfriend is 16 and hes not here

1:01 pm

hurshy

not no statutory not nohow

1:01 pm

Vicuna

Clearly at least one of us is missing something, hursh! I was under the impression that star had been referred to with a male pronoun and was taking a 15-year-old back to her place. But I freely admit that the lack of syntax in these snippets may be taking its toll on my interpretation.

1:02 pm

Good afternoon, folks. I seem to be having a problem. Just logged on and the grid is the same as Friday. I tried shutting down and reloading, but no change. Any suggestions?

1:03 pm

hurshy

in the states if you dial 411 you get information, so it has become teenspeak for information... the skinny, the lowdown...

1:04 pm

hurshy

weird janiece, never heard of that one... email doc i guess... link at bottom.

1:26 pm

hurshy

and if you can have pa5 your bill and you can re5 your bill why can't you have repa*** your bill???

1:26 pm

Vicuna

The ways of Enable are strange.

1:27 pm

hurshy

or are bad spellings allowed in roots but not with re-?

1:27 pm

Vicuna

re- words are a law unto themselves.

1:27 pm

hurshy

and we fought the law and the law won

1:28 pm

Vicuna

Alas.

1:28 pm

hurshy

i'm really irked about pluot though.

1:28 pm

Atalante

I wondered that about the pa and repa- makes noooo sense!

1:28 pm

Vicuna

Especially since they do accept ligers and tigons.

1:29 pm

hurshy

ohhhh but i just googled it and it's under trademark of a genetics company at the mo

1:29 pm

Vicuna

Aha. I guess we're just lucky that so4/6 isn't trademarked, too!

1:29 pm

hurshy

did anyone else really really want upholster today?

1:30 pm

Atalante

1:30 pm

pam

hi, all

1:30 pm

Vicuna

I'd rather have cleaning than upholstery.

1:30 pm

pam

Sorry to hear your news pam

Scrabbler

Let your feelings be what they are, you cannot talk yourself out of them, but live your life IN SPITE of those feelings

1:47 pm

Natasha

pam, we've never talked before, but I'm sorry for your pain. A few years ago my partner of 13 years (with whom I have two kids) ended our relationship. It does get better.

1:47 pm

pam

thanks, snowy

1:47 pm

pam

Scrabbler--how'd you get so wise

1:47 pm

Scrabbler

Sorry, I volunteer as a pastoral minister in a hospital so I am in counseling mode now.

Thanks, Natasha...

1:48 pm

pam

you do it well, no need to apologize

1:48 pm

pam

are you still co-parenting the children, Natasha? And, thanks for sharing your story

1:49 pm

Scrabbler

Dealing with life's difficulties makes one wiser and better able to handle adversity. Life is not easy, nor fair.

1:49 pm

Natasha

We are co-parenting and we've even managed to fold her new partner (a man, surprisingly enough to all of us) into the reconstituted family.

1:49 pm

pam

True, scrabbler...

1:50 pm

snowyowl

Partings are so difficult -my son is going through a marriage break uop at 26 & with three children under 7. He moved back here this weekend. They have been together since they were young teens & are working hard to make it easy as possible for the children.

1:50 pm

pam

are you all friends, natasha? It sounds rather wild...

1:50 pm

pam

hugs, snowy, to your son and the children...

1:51 pm

pam

natasha--wild in a good way...

1:51 pm

Natasha

we definitely all get along well and do things with the kids all together. we're friends of a sort, but I think we'll get closer as we move away from the pain of losing our relationship.

1:51 pm

1:55 pm

ve6,27 = ve +"the more the mer***."

1:55 pm

Ouwachita: qu8/55 = most odd

Hi snowy

1:57 pm

subago29

Thank's Scrabbler. You're a peach!

1:57 pm

Scrabbler

1:57 pm

Scrabbler

A Georgia peach, to be specific!

1:58 pm

1:58 pm

Scrabbler

(I was born in Atlanta.)

1:58 pm

subago29

A natural peach!

1:58 pm

FMitch

Urgh 3 x r's and a u to find

1:58 pm

Scrabbler

And I'm fuzzy too--LOL

1:59 pm

Natasha

we'd had problems for a while, but it was a bit of a shock anyway.

1:59 pm

pam

i guess it always is a shock, who am i kidding?

1:59 pm

pam

I had no clue, none

2:00 pm

Natasha

I can't imagine....ouch. I hope you have a good support system.

2:00 pm

pam

we had an annual gathering of the group I volunteer for and the day it ended and we dropped our friend off at the airport, I found out they were in love with each other

2:00 pm

Dax

help with the second qu7/40 please?

2:00 pm

pam

Yes, I have an INCREDIBLE support system

2:01 pm

Scrabbler

2:01 pm

talk about life hitting you in the face...

2:01 pm

Scrabbler

qu7=less noisy

2:01 pm

Natasha

2:01 pm

shmoozanne

pe7?

2:01 pm

pam

But, again, I may well like being on my own, but at this age, I had not envisioned it...we were making our next round of plans

2:02 pm

pam

truly, slapped in the face. HEr family is my family as my family is whacked....

2:02 pm

Dax

oops.... sorry i didn't see that there was 3. I meant the 3rd one. But thanks scrabbler

2:02 pm

Scrabbler

Say, let's play Babble on a nice day instead of raking leaves or moving perennials around or going for a walk. I am being such a big slug right now

2:02 pm

Natasha

pam, I had the same experience with family. I'm still in touch with her parents, they sent me a nice letter telling me I'll always be part of their family.

2:02 pm

Dax

wait.... no.. the second one.

2:03 pm

Dax

the one after the qu8/55

2:03 pm

pam

her dad has told me that, too and we talk

2:03 pm

Scrabbler

I don't have the 3rd qu7--I still need to find 5 more Q words

2:03 pm

pam

but who knows how things will be in 6 months? a year?

2:03 pm

Natasha

Pam, the best advice I can give you--and this is probably too soon--is to try to look for the opportunities to grow that this is providing. I'm really cynical, so that's not something I say easily!

2:03 pm

Krys10

is anyone else getting the error "word cannot be added at this time please try again in a minute"?

2:03 pm

Dax

i'm only missing that one.... would you like some help?

2:04 pm

Scrabbler

Wait, I DO have that qu 7= one who asks a question

2:04 pm

Natasha

I have krys

2:04 pm

subago29

I need 8 more qu words, scrabbler, but I seem to have the qu7's

2:04 pm

pam

i am cynical, too, natasah, but if i don't grow from this, i will shrivel

2:04 pm

Krys10

i haven't been able to add a word for about five minutes, will try resstarting safari and emptying cache

2:05 pm

Scrabbler

I am not haiving that trouble here Krys.

2:05 pm

Natasha

hang in there pam!

2:05 pm

Dax

ok... i thought i saw that clue earlier but wasn't able to figure out how it's spelled. I just got it.. thanks.

2:06 pm

Scrabbler

You will NOT shrivel Pam. (We won't allow that.) You will become stronger and you will grow.

2:06 pm

pam

thanks, natasha, I can't believe how nice it was of you to share your experiences with me... a gift I cannot at this time re 5/16

2:07 pm

Scrabbler

subago--I have not looked at Lickety's list yet

2:07 pm

Natasha

no problem, Pam. I only hope it helped a bit

2:07 pm

Scrabbler

Hey Pam, many years of psychotherapy have taught me much! LOL

2:07 pm

subago29

Scrabbler,

2:08 pm

pam

oh, natasha, indeed it did

2:08 pm

pam

2:08 pm

subago29

I don't use the list...haven't figured out how best to do it. I use the tile stats at the bottom of the page so I know how many words are left

2:08 pm

majmom

any hints for pe 5/12 and pe 7/44?

2:09 pm

subago29

(My 2nd day babbling. I've been on here for an hour and still have 140 words left!)

2:09 pm

Scrabbler

I don't have those yet majmom

2:09 pm

pam

natasha, she won't be moving out for a month or two, so we are getting some good closure and communicating.

2:09 pm

bichon

pe 5/12 is pe*** porridge hot

2:10 pm

bichon

up 4/6?

2:10 pm

shmoozanne

i could use the pe7 as well..

2:10 pm

Scrabbler

I use the list when I intend to finish. But when the word total is > 200 or so I don't expect to have the time to finish

2:10 pm

pam

too bad she wans't able to communicate earlier--she claims she was on parallel tracks of denial or some such, so some closure will not happen....

2:10 pm

pam

but in all, I am feeling a little stronger each day

2:11 pm

bichon

pe 7 to fix your walls

2:11 pm

kthdsn

oops just realised I haven't finished the grid yet, I've been working on my website in another window

2:11 pm

Scrabbler

Accept that she has her personal frailties and limitations, as we all do.

2:11 pm

majmom

ty bichon but i guess its the 2ndpe 5/12 and 7/44 i need

2:12 pm

pam

2:12 pm

Scrabbler

2:13 pm

Scrabbler

2:14 pm

Scrabbler

2:14 pm

2:15 pm

bichon

2:15 pm

M3

Good plan--participate in life so that you don't just focus on your pain

2:15 pm

kthdsn

2:15 pm

2:16 pm

2:17 pm

Flask1

Ok I have 30 left to find....and they're all the ones I couldn't get earlier!...so here goes...:-)

2:17 pm

Natasha

pam, it will take some distance before either of you are really able to determine what happened.

2:17 pm

M3

au please x

2:18 pm

Scrabbler

Write in a journal Pam---get those thoughts out from your head, where they are playing pinball, and put them down on paper.

2:18 pm

Natasha

she needs to create a narrative for herself that relives her from some of her guilt--and it may or may not be true.

2:18 pm

bichon

does anyone know the pa9?

2:19 pm

Scrabbler

I don't get that aq word still

2:19 pm

Natasha

and of course, you'll need to figure out what your part in the story was--but not now, it is way to painful

2:19 pm

Krys10

it's not a pa9, it's a pl9, and it is person who fixes holes in walls

2:19 pm

Scrabbler

Got it !

2:19 pm

Mom

Bichon - it is a pl 9/60

2:19 pm

pam

oh, i know, natasha, that the distance will give perspective, but where she is already in a serious relationship--they are going to be buying a home together and all of that this soon-- so the narrative has a spin

2:19 pm

majmom

2:19 pm

2:20 pm

Flask1

2:20 pm

Flask1

2:20 pm

Mom

or pl******* of paris

2:20 pm

pam

something that happens in long term relationships

2:20 pm

Scrabbler

But, Pam, that does not mean she is making the right or best choice for herself at this time

2:20 pm

pam

and the only thing mutual very close friends can see is the same

2:21 pm

pam

OH i agree, scrabbler, but I can't change that

2:21 pm

majmom

pa 6/33 same as pa5/20 double the voeel

2:21 pm
