2:11 am
scatty

2:11 am
SamanthaJoy

just past midnight
2:12 am
SamanthaJoy

sorry, sorry, I just gave you seattle's time--just past 4 am
2:12 am
scatty

i'm glad we only have one time zone
2:12 am
M3

oh tiny tiny today, how is the grid today?
2:12 am
jillibus

New York is 3 hours ahead of here, so would be 3:12 am now
2:12 am
SamanthaJoy

because you're tiny. Not like Texas, which is BIG
2:12 am
SamanthaJoy

Have I mentioned the sheer size of Texas?
2:13 am
Angb

Yug is all I can say M3
2:13 am
scatty

i thought all of America was one time zone, see babble is educational
2:13 am
SamanthaJoy

America is five or six time zones
2:13 am
scatty

it would really confuse me
2:14 am
SamanthaJoy

jill, you're right, I was confused by daylight savings time again, sorry
2:14 am
SamanthaJoy

well, most states are only in one time zone, and it's pretty easy to keep track as you drive if you have a long way to go, so you really only need to keep track of local time
2:14 am
scatty

the only time change we have is in the sumer when it goes forward an hour to catch up with europe, then it goes back again further in the year
2:15 am
M3

i think there are 25 times zone's scatty x
2:15 am
SamanthaJoy

to make it more confusing, scatty, some states comply with daylight saving time (DST) and some don't
2:15 am
scatty

jesus
2:15 am
SamanthaJoy

there are 24 total, M3
2:15 am

There's some 2 hours between us - depends when
2:19 am
SamanthaJoy

and the answer is--we generally don't keep up. if there's a specific place that we have to know, we memorize the difference, but for the most part we pay no attention. I haven't the foggiest idea what time it is right now in, say, Phoenix

There was Gemini Jim and Scorpio Sal
They was livin' by the Golden Gate
Freezin' their nose and wearin' leather clothes
And dealin' every way but straight.
They had a Leo dog and a Capricorn cat,
And everything was goin' fine
'Till into their life on a starless night
Come the man who got no sign.
Look out, Momma, he's headin' this way,
One eye yella and the other one gray,
Lookin' for a soul, but he won't get mine.
He's the man who got no sign.
Well he blew right in, sat right down
And rolled himself a righteous smoke.
He lit his roach with a lightnin' bolt,
He took a toke and spoke.
Said he was born in an astrological warp
When the moon refused to shine
On the **** of nowhere and nevermore.
He's the man who got no sign.

This is highly confidential; This is just between us two;
But Mrs. Toucanella told me, Horton's talking to a Who!

A Who?! Who's "a Who"?

Well, my dear, that's just the point! There isn't any Who.
Horton's brain is out of joint.

For goodness sake -- A Who?

Now, I know you won't repeat this; strictly entre ****;

Of course.

But Mrs. Tusic Toucanella is an unimpeachable source.
And she says irrefutably - it's indubitably a fact...
Horton's schizo-witsa-fistic. In other words, he's cracked!

4:18 am
Douglas

I remember that en Francais, the word for champion is a lot like the word for mushroom, champignon...
4:19 am
Haz1558

Douglas - think of your chest muscles, (shortened version) reverse the letters and plural it. It's a variety of mushroom
4:19 am
Cheesenips

co7/48 no doubt has already been clued? it's one of my last two
4:19 am
FMitch

Thunder is back and rolling around but no lightening.
4:23 am
Haz1558

Cheesenips, I'm sorry - I totally misunderstood you. I thought you were offering to clue co7/48 because it was one of the last you had found. I didn't realise you were asking for it to be clued. co7/48 is the opposite of to make clear.
4:24 am
Cheesenips

it's ok haz... got it now thanks much haz and also douglas
4:24 am
FMitch

You were co7'd by Cheese's post perhaps.

The reason I ask is because Alex Rodriguez makes about 12 to 13 million pounds per year playing baseball for the New York Yankees.

The Yankees were eliminated from the playoffs recently, and there is great weeping and gnashing of teeth in New York...
4:55 am
FMitch

It's a lot of dosh which ever way you look at it. David Beckham is definately in that league and I am sure there are some other names in that league but I am not really up on such things.
4:56 am
Douglas

It's important to have someone to blame when things go wrong, and Rodriguez is an easy target...
4:56 am
mrpresident

Valentino Rossi is the highest paid sports person as far as I know... but he is also a living legend
4:56 am

Also our San Diego Padres lost in the playoffs to the St Louis Cardinals and with less weeping etc due to less overweening ego going in

6:20 am

And of couse Asimov's 3 laws pertained to all of them too
6:43 am
ch1212

LOL metaleather -- I have to say I really tried hard to find the brilliance but finally had to just agree ... not his greatest
6:43 am
Ragalla

down to my last 10 - 3 of them are co's - 5/14, 4/10 and 5/22 (not the little rowers)
6:44 am
ch1212

drop the r from your chicken co, rag ...
6:44 am

it sucked. and I"m not one to use that phrase lightly, but it reallllly did, especially at the end.
6:44 am

AI would have been a Kubrick film but for his death, and I can see how Kubrick would have made it darker and better
6:45 am
metaleather

you're two ahead of me
6:45 am
ch1212

add latin ending to your other co5/22 ... and then take first three letters of either co5/22 and add first vowel
6:45 am
Ragalla

on the subject of worst film ever, for me has to be saving private ryan - overlong and overrated
6:46 am
ch1212

yes rag! And overdone too
6:46 am
ch1212

and overacted :)
6:47 am
Ragalla

yes, and various other over-adjectives...
6:48 am
Ragalla

also struggling on the do's need: do 5/16, 4/11. 5/22 and 6/36
6:48 am
ch1212

a wonderful do5/16 clue earlier was Irma la Do***
6:49 am
ch1212

Then take first 3 letters and add the big scoring tile
6:49 am
metaleather

that was a charming film.
6:50 am
ch1212

the do5/22 and it's plural ... do + big scoring tile + 2 vowels
6:51 am

Shirley made that role ... and speaking of her, my husband also saw "Terms of Endearment" for the first time a couple weeks ago (he's getting a whole education with me!)
6:52 am

Ragalla

right then, last 4 words - who can help me: co5/14, no4/5 (not the knowing one), sp4/5 and sp 5/14
6:55 am
metaleather

sp5/14 to reject.... she sp5/14'd his advances
6:55 am
ch1212

ragalla, take your co6/24 and drop the 'r' for your co5/14
6:57 am
ch1212

no4/5 = no+decease minus the e
6:57 am
metaleather

sp4/5 to foretell.... sounds like alt. spelling of the operation which is the animal equivalent of a hysterectomy
6:57 am
ch1212

The seeds of several varieties of Morning Glory (Ipomoea violacea) contain a naturally occurring tryptamine called Lysergic Acid Amide (LSA), which is closely related to LSD. Seeds are taken orally, and can be eaten whole or the active alkaloids can be extracted.
I didn't know that

oops sorry no su4/8, su4/6 - doh been trying for the wrong numbers! Slaps head in shame!
4:05 pm

Tiny

Charo not really cheating just getting some help as sometimes the obvious ones are staring you in the face or they are so obscure
4:06 pm
torgone

We try not to blatantly give a way words. But it's not a competiton anyway, so if you "cheat" you're only cheating yourself ..
4:07 pm
BettyAnne

Anyone with the od5/14 & od6/24 please
4:07 pm
Flask1

and who is 'cheating' tor??
4:07 pm
helenkeller

char - if you like weboggle - there is a game at iwin.com called tangleword that i prefer much better - basically the same thing, except there's chat & you have the ability to rotate the board, also more options of room sizes & times
4:07 pm
LUCKY

Bye all am going to make a late night dinner now ... see you all tomorrow!
4:07 pm
Colhad

played tangleword the other day, liked it bery much
4:08 pm

Ive played that too....its excellent!
4:08 pm
Colhad

there is quite a few Boggle games on the web, I've found a lot just by googling
4:08 pm
Denny

flask the police might co****e off an area where there has been a crime
4:08 pm
Denny

but lose the 2nd consonant
4:09 pm
helenkeller

good to hear colhad - hope to see you there sometime - i play mostly in the 2 minute room - same name, less last 'r'
4:09 pm
Colhad

There's one called Word Scramble at mindfun.com, it's boggle but the rules are slightly bent in that you can use the same letter in a word, makes for very high scoring,
4:09 pm
Denny

Might ahve to check some of those sites out... Night night all - any clues needed shout quickly!
4:10 pm
helenkeller

that sounds good colhad - i'll check that one out
4:10 pm
torgone

To some, using any clues or lists is cheating .. It's just a matter of what level of challenge you want
4:10 pm
BettyAnne

od5/14 & 6/24 Please

charolastra

hellenkeller, you can rotate the board at Weboggle by clicking it

4:11 pm
Denny

bettyanne - smells
4:11 pm
helenkeller


char - now that is just giving the word away - lol
4:12 pm
candy

Betty - od5/14 - another word for smell and plural
4:12 pm
Denny

just realised that sounds awful - sorry bettyanne LOL I'm sure you don't!
4:13 pm
Colhad

but do a google search, type in "online boggle games", you'll be pleasently surprised at how many there are, there's a few pay sites, but also lots of freebies
4:13 pm
helenkeller

LOL denny - didn't even notice that! ROFL!!!
4:13 pm
helenkeller

LOL denny - didn't even notice that! ROFL!!!
4:13 pm
BettyAnne

No problem. I have the word but can't find a plural or the 6/24.
4:14 pm
GadareneSwill

If there is no official rule that says using clues and lists is cheating, to even suggest otherwise is not only ludicrous but quite mean-spirited!
4:14 pm
Denny

the 6/24 is the plural - 6/21 is what happens to priests
4:14 pm
torgone

Sure I do. I snag clues when I can, and resort to the list when I can't see any more words ..
4:15 pm
Flask1

.....as I think most of us do!
4:15 pm
BettyAnne

Thanks so much Denny and all.
4:15 pm
Denny

altho' i'm told it's quite painless :-D
4:16 pm
helenkeller

gadarene - uh, i don't know of any official rule list of babble - but people on here definitly have their own standards & opinions of how they like to play
4:16 pm
Colhad

could I request a clue for co5/22 and co6/36 please :)
4:16 pm
Colhad

ahhh do5/22 and do6/356 sorry
4:17 pm
Colhad

ahh, try that again, do5/22 and do6/36
4:17 pm
Denny

colhad - rhymes with ms hart from chicago and her plural
4:17 pm
torgone

Someone who is brash might be said to have mo***
4:17 pm
GadareneSwill

so, if someone disagrees, they are free to label others cheaters? how ridiculous
4:17 pm
torgone

do5 rhymes with that. do6 is plural
4:18 pm
helenkeller

i think what i'm trying to say is that there are players on here who prefer to do the grid in a pure manner - going clueless - but that's a personal choice, but i don't think most of them consider cluing as cheating
4:18 pm
BettyAnne

ho5/16 please. I have the one that relates to magic I think.
4:18 pm
Denny

santa might say this to his father!
4:18 pm
Atalante

I go listless, but I don't die if I see a clue, or even ask for a clue *gasp*!
4:19 pm
Colhad

I wish I could do it without clues, but it's near on impossible cos the majority of the words are very obscure
4:19 pm
Flask1

and nor do I....its a nice feeling to help somebody finish!
4:19 pm
helenkeller

colhad - i agree, i wish i were brilliant enough to go clueless everyday too!
4:19 pm
torgone

Someone used the word cheat in reference to reading the chat log. I don't like using the word when you're doing something just for fun ..
4:19 pm
helenkeller

LOL ata
4:20 pm
BettyAnne

Great clue Denny. Thanks. That's it for me. Thanks all again for your help. Bye now.
4:20 pm

Exactly Tor!
4:20 pm
Denny

I'm too impatient to do it clueless (altho' I'm pretty clueless most of the time!) I like to help and try to come up with wierd clues to make people guess even more!!!!
4:20 pm
helenkeller

torgone - you guys are being too rough, i think it was a newbie who was just trying to get the lay of the land here
4:20 pm
Flask1

and thats what its all about FUN!!
4:20 pm
Denny

sorry that should read weird clues!
4:20 pm
torgone

If you used a computer program to automatically fill in all the words for you, I would call that cheating, and kind of missing the point ...
4:21 pm
Denny

torgone you mean there's such a thing...
4:21 pm
torgone

I'm sure there must be ..
4:21 pm
pida 1

Good afternoon everyone. I have a lot of fun, just trying to figure out some of the clues. And trying to clue some myself, without giving the word away.
4:21 pm

4:21 pm

Oh god Tor....am nev er likely to even want to do that.....anyway I would probably blow my pc up trying!!..lol
4:22 pm
Atalante

we had a troll on here yesterday or the day before doing it
4:22 pm

I say if there are no rules and the idea is to have fun, do as you wish.... and those who disagree can lump it!
4:23 pm

Don't you think that Lickety has to has some kind of program to come up with the lists everyday?
4:23 pm

8:47 pm
jillibus

nut - saw your icon change this aft at the library - very sad, and the first I'd heard of who had been in the plane.
8:47 pm
stidmama

so riemann -- today we learned that -4x^3 is not the same as -(4x)^3... right stidmatt?
8:47 pm
stidmama

later lbd!
8:47 pm
evanonut

haven't heard much more mab because i was out tracking a deer with my neighbor
8:47 pm
stidmatt

Yes, we did learn that.
8:48 pm
jillibus

8:48 pm
stidmama

venison for dinner, nut?
8:48 pm
stidmatt

Bye lbd! Hi Woulf!
8:48 pm
GreyWoulf

8:48 pm
evanonut

afraid not stid, lost the trail in the rain. got cold, quit at 830, and came back to hunt all the ticks off my body
8:49 pm
riemann

I see that occasionally. More frequent is (2 + x)^2 = 4 + x^2
8:49 pm
mab

has it been confirmed that the baseball player was in the plane? the last i heard his passport had been found on the street...
8:49 pm
jillibus

nut - he was a Toronto Bluejay for a while, so Canada cares too.
8:49 pm
stidmama

Woulf, can hardly wait for your Seb to babble with us... or Kristianna!
8:49 pm
mab

hi gw :)
8:49 pm
evanonut

it would tak a cold hearted person not to care about anyone affected by it, famous or not.
8:49 pm
stidmatt

That makes sense, riemann.
8:50 pm
stidmama

oh no! that's not right, riemann... though of course your students are more advanced (in age anyway) so have more ability to be inventive...
8:50 pm
GreyWoulf

mab -- been a while, lady -- how have you been?
8:50 pm
pam

the news is saying that Lidle was on the plane
8:50 pm

Oh, stidmama just told me that that is wrong, sorry.
8:51 pm
GreyWoulf

stidmama -- whenever I warm up the computer while they are up, they are both busy trying to get in my lap so they can write
8:51 pm
pam

even those of us who are mets, and not yankees fans
8:51 pm
riemann

Creativity is definitely not lacking among my students. Accuracy would be a pleasant change.
8:51 pm
stidmama

such precocious children, Woulf! won't be long, of course, and they'll have their own logins and all!
8:51 pm
GreyWoulf

LOL, riemann
8:51 pm
stidmatt

Yup, that it would.
8:52 pm
evanonut

hey stidmatt, i'm a huge harry potter fan myself
8:52 pm
riemann

It's hunting season here in South Dakota. If my students are as good with a gun as they are with their math, full body armor may be needed.
8:52 pm
mab

oh, nut, i agree completely. just not up on the news.
8:52 pm
stidmama

ROFL. how did they take the ultimatum, riemann -- do you think they'll take inverse operations more seriously?
8:52 pm
GreyWoulf

well... there is still a bit of time for that yet, stidmama -- Kristianna is good with her numbers, but words are still a new frontier for her -- as for Seb the best he can do right now is -- hdsgyw45s
8:52 pm
stidmatt

That is really sad.
8:53 pm
riemann

They're great with inverse operations. sqrt( 4 + x^2 ) = 2 + x.
8:53 pm
mab

it's a start, gw ;)
8:53 pm
stidmama

I have a pic of stidmatt on the computer at age 6 mos... or is that the one on the piano? need to try to find it and use it for my icon one of these days. He was so precious!

8:54 pm
riemann

My students FAVORITE inverse operation: arc tan(x) = cot(x).
8:54 pm
stidmama

co 6/24 is chicken co**** bleu...
8:55 pm

oh! ty, stid!
8:55 pm
