2:01 am

vedaman

does it use the 5 point tile joey? I can't recall and car rental companies

2:47 am

saphyre

sure does volley

2:47 am

bundy

lickety is a god send everyday for me

2:48 am

VolleymomDee

sure has been for me; hope I continue to find more and more words on my own; lickety makes this so much more enjoyable for me, even though it is a challenge

2:49 am

FranMag

it does get easier volley

2:50 am

VolleymomDee

thanks for encouragement... think my old brain is really being stretched here lol

2:50 am

Andree

I have been playing months now and only once finished without the clues, love lickety

2:50 am

jillibus

volley -- a Lickety trick -- bring it up in a separate window and shrink it sideways -- then you can have it visible at the same time as the grid and can toggle back and forth. Some people can have it at the side of the main page so toggling (alt+ tab) isn't necessary

2:51 am

saphyre

okay be back after I check my bids - trying to get collector action figures (star wars, matrix, etc)

2:51 am

We may have had rain but in the worng places and there are still hosepipe bans in some areas I think

4:29 am

FranMag

sparkly, silence is a vi***e, change the first vowel

4:29 am

Haz1558

Do you have ve4/7? If not, it's french for green. Or try v plus two letter US medical drama, followed by a consonant

4:30 am

sparklygem

got it - thank you!! x

4:30 am

FranMag

vi5/18 is the same word, alt spelling

Bad coffee???

vi8 is the plural of vi7/44 - relating to the presence of virus in the blood.

4:59 am

shorty

ahh thank you

4:59 am

Haz1558

You're welcome shorty.

4:59 am

amandacath

I've been a bad girl. I loaded a fantasy RPG onto my computer and my obsessive-compulsive behavior about games got the best of me. But I've now played it to death and am back to be obsessive-compulsive about Babble.

5:00 am

Haz1558

Well, at least you have confessed the error of your ways. Welcome back.

5:00 am

sparklygem

thanks for the vi clues haz!

5:00 am

FMitch

Wow that must have been some game as we haven't seen you for some months!! Good to see you back though.

5:00 am

amandacath

...just in time for a server burp, it seems...

5:00 am

Haz1558

You're welcome sparkly.

5:02 am

Haz1558

There was an article in the paper the other day about people who were having to receive treatment for games addiction. It's becoming more and more of a problem with people refusing to interact, leave their computer, eat food. Oh wait, that could be us they're describing.....

5:03 am

kthdsn

it's easy to see why people do it though, games are fun and real life can be hard and boring

5:04 am

shorty

LOL Haz

5:04 am

Bloodaxe

morning babblers

5:04 am

kthdsn

I can't get the vi's, can I have an easier clue

5:04 am

kthdsn

hi blood

5:05 am

Haz1558

kth - remember a word recently an***** - that describes low blood count (pale etc). The vi word has the same ending, put a consonant in between

5:05 am

Bloodaxe

i see ol' Jon Bon is sticking around kt.

5:05 am

Hello Bloodaxe.

5:06 am

kthdsn

yes blood I can't bear to delete him

5:07 am

kthdsn

thanks haz that did it

5:07 am

Haz1558

Good.

5:07 am

amandacath

...and you can actually WIN a game, or at least complete it. Something that doesn't always happen in real life!

5:07 am

P.J.

Atal,what a cute puppy. Hi bloodaxe

5:08 am

kthdsn

I read an interesting article the other day about how real life is nothing more than a game, you just have to choose to play it

5:08 am

Bloodaxe

hi hodag

5:09 am

Haz1558

That sounds a bit like the plot of Life is Beautiful where the father tries to persuade the little boy that the concentration camp is a 'Build a tank' game.

5:09 am

amandacath

That's an interesting way to look at it, kth. Could be difficult though, when the others don't choose to play along or by the rules!

5:14 am

kthdsn

could be helpful though in some situations, if you run out of money in a game you just think oh crap I'm poor, better go make more money, yet in life people can get depressed and worry about how they will cope being so poor instead of just getting up and trying again

5:16 am

P.J.

I like your outlook on life Kate!

5:16 am

kthdsn

to hodag :D

5:19 am

Haz1558

5:47 am

pbarman20

6:08 am

Haz1558

But I'm not addicted.

6:09 am

Haz1558

Thank goodness, not groceries today. I'll have to buy knitting needles and wool to knit a huge blanket as a prop for my daughter's P1 nativity play (she is the teacher)

6:09 am

FMitch

None of us are Haz, none of us are.

6:10 am

Uneaixoise

6:10 am

6:11 am

Bloodaxe

vo's and vi's = not my friends.

6:11 am

Uneaixoise

hey, bloodaxe!

6:11 am

Haz1558

I don't know if vo5/18 can be anybody's friend....

6:11 am

FMitch

Bet you try and knit and babble at the same time

6:12 am

kthdsn

I knit on circular needles so there's more room for the stitches when i knit big things

6:12 am

Haz1558

But of course....

6:12 am

Uneaixoise

oh, blood, do they make you vo5/18??

6:12 am

Bloodaxe

hi unea!

6:13 am

Haz1558

The most exacting knitting task I ever undertook was an aran jumper for husband. It was incredibly heavy and cumbersome. So heavy that he couldn't wear it without coming out in a sweat.....

6:14 am

Uneaixoise

the only sweater I ever tried ended up with orangutan arms!

6:14 am

kthdsn

oh dear lol maybe you needed a lighter yarn, I knit my husband a jumper and he hasn't even worn it

6:15 am

Bloodaxe

thanks for the clues haz and unea.

6:15 am

Haz1558

That particular aran jumper ended up going to Romania where the winters are more severe and the men less hardy....

6:15 am

Uneaixoise

LOL!!!

6:15 am

Faerie

I gotta fly outta here and get to work.. 2nd day at the new job :D

6:16 am

Uneaixoise

hope it goes well, faerie!

6:16 am

Haz1558

Bloodaxe - the vo5 can be pluraled as you probably know, and there's a connected vo7 - add in a vowel

6:16 am

FMitch

Good luck Faerie!

6:17 am

Haz1558

Bye Faerie - have a good day.

6:17 am

Bloodaxe

vi + consonant = ending of blood disease where you don't have enough blood

3.06am here in UK. Haven't been to bed yet; been writing Xmas cards for hours plus my knee is hurting from when I tripped over earlier and took a chunk out of it. 3 dressings later, it ha just about stopped bleeding.:( I finished the grid some time ago but have just logged back in here and found another phantom word - 'priapism'. If you don't know the meaning, look it up. LOL.

9:11 pm

P.J.

9:12 pm

hey jac, sorry to hear about your knee

9:12 pm

P.J.

Hope you stop hurting Jac!

hi jac -- stick your leg up in the air over your head to stop the bleeding -- should have interesting results!

hey Jilli, how was the concert last night?

9:13 pm

jillibus

gotta go -- supper ready!

9:13 pm

Jacula

Thanks, Nat. You feel such a fool falling over when you're adult!:( Hi everyone else, I've just seen post beneath... I should have got Paul to take a grisley pic. LOL.

9:14 pm

jillibus

Concert was FABULOUS -- jazz riffs with the Nutcracker Suite and other Xmas songs

9:14 pm

lbdawger

erm, that's okay Jac, we'll believe you have a really bad owie.

9:14 pm

NatLT

I have a glass table in my livingroom, and I hit my leg on it all the time, even though I know it is there, even the best of us take a tumble

9:15 pm

Jacula

If I'd fallen over in the street I could maybe sue the council. Unfortunately, I tripped over a 1/4" rise in the bricks just outside my own front door. I do know the builder who built the drive (an ex boyfriend) but I know sueing him wouldn't bring me a fortune. LOL.

9:16 pm

jillibus

Jac -- didn't mean to belittle -- just thought it might be a cheer-up -- must go -- pls feel better!

9:16 pm

Jacula

LOL, lbd. You don't want to see my pain as well as feel it then? *grins*

9:16 pm

Jacula

jilli - don't know what you're on about but if you think you've upset me, you haven't. xx

9:17 pm

lbdawger

i can feel your pain without seeing it thanks. I'm such a klutz, and my imagination is already running on ov**drive

9:18 pm

jillibus

good -- just got this picture of an imaginary you with a leg held skyward...lol!

9:18 pm

jillibus

back soon...

9:18 pm

Jacula

jilli - ah! the leg up in the air thing. Well, yes, if I wasn't still ill (and 'himself', also) from the cold/flu bug thingey, the results of doing that could be interesting.

9:18 pm

lbdawger

enjoy your dinner Jilli

9:19 pm

Jacula

What's jilli having for dinner then? It was mostly pasta on here earlier.

9:19 pm

P.J.

9:20 pm

Hey, I'm 50 next April and all I seem to have done on here lately is moan about various health probs. I've also just realised I began this post by stating my age. AARGH! I'm not becoming 'old', am I? No! I refuse to do that!

9:25 pm

lbdawger

i'm older than you jac.

9:25 pm

Are you, lbd? By how much? *grins*

9:26 pm

Dr_God cranks our ages up on our birthdays. Did you know that? Sweet boy! ROFLOL.

9:28 pm

9:28 pm

I still have 40 left to find, so I am sure at some point but I haven't looked at lickety's yet

9:30 pm

Jacula

Cranky is a whole 'nother matter, lbd. I agree! If the Grumpy Old Women show ever gets over to USA, go and see it. Or watch the series on TV.

9:31 pm

Jacula

Nat - keep on looking for a while. You won't need at list with this grid until you hit about 20 to go.

9:31 pm

lbdawger

i can so relate with the cartoon character Maxine. she just cracks me up

9:31 pm

Jacula

Maxine - yes, she is funny. Have you seen the e-cards for her on the Hallmark site?

9:32 pm

lbdawger

no, i'll have to check them out.

9:33 pm

Jacula

hallmark.com e cards section, lbd.

9:33 pm

lbdawger

one of my best friends always sends me maxine cards for my birthday. she's only a year older than me, but the comments she writes are like "just wait, it WILL happen to you."

9:33 pm

NatLT

thanks for the vote of confidence jac!

9:33 pm

Jacula

Nat - you will find it's true.

9:34 pm

Jacula

lbd - I know! My best mate's 3 months older than me.

9:35 pm

Jacula

3 months is a long time when you're a child and most revaltory (is that a word???) when you're supposedly a grown-up.

9:36 pm

Jacula

revalatory? No, it still doesn't look right. I know what I mean though, so what the heck?!

9:36 pm

lbdawger

i think for my friend it's her way of "being the older" since she's the youngest of 7 in her family

9:36 pm

Jacula

lbd - Yes, that would make some sense. Being the youngest of 7 must be hard work.

9:36 pm

lbdawger

revalatory...are you going to show us your loo?

9:37 pm

Jacula

LOL, lbd. I could take a photo, I guess. Don't think I will, though.

9:37 pm

lbdawger

lol

9:38 pm

lbdawger

guess i better log off and get my clothes ready for tomorrow. gotta be kinda professional...presentation to give ...gag

9:39 pm

Jacula

How's it going, Nat? Need any clues yet?

9:39 pm

lbdawger

nighty night everyone!

9:39 pm

Jacula

lbd - yes, you'd best see to all that. See you again and Good Luck!

9:40 pm

NatLT

still working, not yet

9:41 pm

Jacula

Well, if no one needs clues from me in about the next 5 mins., I will be off up the wooden hill...

9:43 pm

Jacula

13 7-letter words in today's grid, but they don't seem to have posed too many problems.

9:43 pm

JeeWhiz

hwo about ov8 please?

9:44 pm

JeeWhiz

never mind got it...thanks anyway.

9:45 pm

Jacula

Jee - Hi! ov8 is what you do when you prune a fir tree too much, or what you Mom does when she cuts your fringe to about half inch in length so it will 'last'. The fact that it leaves you looking retarded is beyond her, but does not esape the notice of your classmates.

9:46 pm

Jacula

*escape

9:46 pm

Jacula

Too late! Oh, well.

9:47 pm

JeeWhiz

thanks jacula...thought I had it, but didn't.....so thanks bunches....I had the first word, and thought it went with ti4....thanks again.

9:47 pm

Jacula

y/w, Jee.

9:48 pm

Jacula

Erg! Now I'm seeing bunches (in the hair) + a half inch fringe.

9:48 pm

JeeWhiz

I was kind of embarrassed to say, nope, don't have it after all....lol.....so since you didn't leave, how about vi7 and vi8 please Jacula? Thanks

9:50 pm

Jacula

... and some woman with a deep Southern USA accent (or a UK Sidemoor or Norfolk accent) saying, on the nightly news, 'Ah ne5/16 realised he was a maniac killer!'

9:51 pm

JeeWhiz

oooh....bad visualization Jac....I think I have seen that killer with the bad fringe....maybe it was really a bad toupe.

9:51 pm

Jacula

vi7 & plural 8 = vi + vowel + Ms. Farrow & plural.

9:53 pm

JeeWhiz

thanks jacula...got them.....

9:53 pm

Jacula

Jee - it happens all the time! And often the maniac killer has 6 or more offspring. How do the offspring deal with daddy's history, I wonder?

9:54 pm

Jacula

Glad you got 'em, jee.

9:54 pm

JeeWhiz

hopefully, their mama lies about their parentage.

9:55 pm

JeeWhiz

yeah, that would be really hard to deal with....I think about that also....too bad that genetics can make you think that you could be "bad" also.

9:57 pm

Nef

Hi Jac and Jee; I'm trying to decorate for Christmas tonight and had to buy new twinkle lights. They are difficult to get out of the pkg; so sat down here to see if I could find any words. Interesting conversation I popped into! :D

9:57 pm

Anniebrook

I must say that I thought this would not be the site where I would read a funny comment about retarded people... I am quite surprised...thought you were smarter than taht

9:58 pm

JeeWhiz

Hi Nef...you never know what you will find in our discussions, do you?

9:59 pm

Jacula

Jee - that's what Fred West's son said. Fred West was the 'killer GP' here in UK. His wife stuck by him, sad, fat and delusional as she was. I think she was damaged before she met him, but the same cannot be said of his kids. They were damaged by the life (if they knew of it) or the revelations, if they did not know before. As for the man himself, he committed suicide before I could work out why the hell he did what he did.

9:59 pm

Nef

Where do you see something about retarded people, Annie? I'm reading about maniac killers

10:00 pm

Anniebrook

Jacula commented before about a bad haircut that would make a person look retarded. It was not funny, in my humble opinion

10:00 pm

Jacula

Annie??

10:00 pm

Anniebrook

yes?

10:00 pm

JeeWhiz

You couldn't not be affected by hearing that you were related to that evilness.

10:01 pm

JeeWhiz

double negative....geez!

10:01 pm

Jacula

Ah! I see. Okay, Annie, you are entitled to your opinion. I can only spealk for myself, and that was how it was growing up in late 50s,60s,70s in Britain.

10:03 pm

Jacula

In the area where I grew up there were quite a few mentally challenged persons. Each and every one of them had some haircut made 'to last' imposed upon them by the place they were incarcerated in. Or by their Mum, since they were so hard to pin down for haircuts.

10:03 pm

Anniebrook

Jacula, you are a grown woman. You were not speaking about the 50s, 60s or 70s. You made a plain statement about a haircut making someone look retarted. Not very sensitive to people who might have a retarded person in their family. It wat NOT funny, you meant to be funny.

10:04 pm

Anniebrook

*retarded

10:05 pm

Jacula

Annie - I am sorry if you are offended by my humour, but, since I have seen 2 members of my family incarcerated in 'nutter wings' of hospitals (their descriptions, not mine!) I feel you are failing to draw the black humour needed to survive such situations.

Anniebrook

It is like that all over for retarded people and for someone of your age and intelligence, I am shocked

10:05 pm

NatLT

Annie, I see your point and I am usually offended when someone makes fun of someone who is developmentally delayed; however, Jac is not that kind of mean spirited person, and any more retarded is not used to describe people with limited mental capabilities, and I don't think she meant it that way

10:05 pm

Cathyar

eeeks...

10:05 pm

Jacula

Cath - yes, eeks indeed. Dunno. We will see.

10:06 pm

Cathyar

agree NatLT

10:06 pm

NatLT

is was a visial descriptor not a mental capability

10:06 pm

NatLT

visual

10:07 pm

JeeWhiz

okay, on to a more positive experience......how about ve7 and vo7 please? and any related v6s please?

10:07 pm

NatLT

it is far more offensive to desribe people with mental handicaps as retarded that to describe a haircut as looking retarded

10:07 pm

NatLT

I need those too Jee

10:07 pm

Cathyar

jac...i can relate...i have a mother with alzheimers...different scenario, but still a drastic difference in mental capacity.... similar outcome in effects on the people who love them.

10:08 pm

Jacula

ve7/40 = truth. Think 'in vino ve*****.

10:08 pm

Anniebrook

I am not going to discuss this any further..As I said I was shocked to see that word...and about a haircut, no less. Nuf said.

10:08 pm

JeeWhiz

thanks Jacula

10:08 pm

NatLT

thanks jac

10:08 pm

Jacula

vo7/44 = plural of vo6/30 before it. Relates to being sick word.

10:09 pm

Jacula

Okay, Annie. If you want to take offence and then not discuss it, I can't stop you. Go well about your life anyway.

10:09 pm

JeeWhiz

I thought vo6 was the plural?

10:10 pm

NatLT

yeah me too jee

10:10 pm

Jacula

Nope, Jee.

10:10 pm

NatLT

add a vowel jee

10:10 pm

NatLT

at the end

10:11 pm

JeeWhiz

hmmmmmm......I'm feeling sick just thinking about it.

10:11 pm

Cathyar

annie?

10:11 pm

JeeWhiz

yucky words!!!

10:11 pm

Jacula

I'm really sorry that Annie has taken offence at things I've said. If she only knew me, she wuld not have done. Oh well, that's life.

10:11 pm

JeeWhiz

got them...thanks

10:12 pm

Jacula

well done, Jee.

10:12 pm

Anniebrook

Jacula, I have a 41 year old son with Down Syndrome who is a delight to everyone who knows him. I have been fighting that word almost all his life. People are retarded, not clothes, haircuts, actions. I cant get my point across now because I am upset but you get the point.

10:12 pm

Anniebrook

yes, Cathyar

10:13 pm

Cathyar

it's all about, it seems, political correctness Jacs...i think annie wil be fine...won't u annie? what is in a word anyway? a rose by any other name would smell as "dirty"?

10:14 pm

alekos

shut the hell up annie, the world doesnt revolve around you, the fact that you take offense to something not even remotely directed at you is egotistical and absurd

10:14 pm

Nef

Annie, we lost my hubby's 91 year old Anut Mildred last year. She had Down's and dementia. That word was never spoken because she had different abilities that "normal"people didn't have.

10:14 pm

Cathyar

all means the same thing... retarded, handicapped, challenged... aromatic, pretty, powerful... life is too short to worry about terminology

10:15 pm

stidmama

Annie, you must be so proud of your son! I had a wonderful friend when I was in second grade back in the early 1970s who had Down Syndrome. She and I ate lunch together every day.

10:15 pm

GreyWoulf

Now Now, alekos -- there is no need to be so rude -- Annie is merely trying to clarify her perspective

10:15 pm

Cathyar

alekos...that's not nice :(

10:15 pm

stidmama

Then they changed the school, and she and her classmates were moved somewhere else.

10:15 pm

NatLT

Woulfie....long time no see!!!!

10:16 pm

Jacula

Annie - thank God you've come back. Yes, I do get your point, and I do understand. I'm sorry if a word I've used has lighted your blue touchpaper, but life is precarious for all of us. Sensitivity to certain words for parent of mentally disabled/disadvantaged/ or whatever kids is par for the course. Why on earth do you think I jump on people who use the word 'anorexic' as a generic term for skinnies? They could at leat say 'anorectic'.

10:16 pm

GreyWoulf

Hi Nat -- {Hug} -- how's things?

10:16 pm

stidmama

hi Woulf! Hi Cathy -- thanks for giving me your cold *sniffle*

10:16 pm

NatLT

how's seb??

10:16 pm

Anniebrook

Stid, I always thought you were very special. My son, Bobby, travels to work by himself and takes complete care of himself also. Thank you, Stid, you made me feel better

10:16 pm

NatLT

things are good! I got a new lap top today

10:17 pm

Cathyar

lol stid...cept i didn't have a cold.... tummy flu

10:17 pm

stidmama

oh! *hoping cold won't turn into tummy flu*

10:17 pm

GreyWoulf

Seb is a little monkey!!!! He loves to climb as high as he can get and then bounce! The fact that he tends to fall over and scare the heck out of his parents doesnt' deter him at all :-D

10:17 pm

alekos

jacula - anorexic and anorectic are basically the same word from the same root, why would that make any difference? and anorexia is not a mental disability its a personality flaw

10:17 pm

stidmama

wow, Nat! *wondering if new laptops might be contagious...*

10:17 pm

NatLT

what a brave boy!!!

10:18 pm

Jacula

stid - the bug we all had for over a week now has to get all it's gunk oout somehow... hence, tummy bug. Sorry for being so graphic!

10:18 pm

NatLT

my dad is letting me "borrow" it for a couple years

10:18 pm

stidmama

Boys Bounce! (and thank goodness they do, for all the times they leapt out of my arms when they were little)

10:18 pm

GreyWoulf

oh, wouldn't THAT be wonderful, stid!

10:19 pm

Cathyar

lol stid...you'll be fine. Hey! We got our first "major" snowfall here in atlantic canada!!! an entire 2 centimetres (less than an inch!!! LOL)

10:19 pm

Jacula

alekos - I beg to differ on that. But it's late here.

10:19 pm

stidmama

less than half an inch even! how ever will you-all cope? LOL

10:19 pm

Cathyar

Poor western americal!!!

10:19 pm

Cathyar

haha

10:19 pm

smooth_pappa

hello!

10:19 pm

Cathyar

seriously tho....hard to deal with when not used to it.

10:20 pm

Cathyar

hiya pappa!

10:20 pm

GreyWoulf

He scared us good earlier though -- we have a plastic chair from IKEA that he decided to climb onto and then proved to us that he could climb over the back of it as well -- he ended up landing on the top of his head from a height of about 2 feet! 8-o

10:20 pm

stidmama

hi pappa! where is this one? Not the parthenon?

10:20 pm

Anniebrook

Dear Lord, I cant believe alekos said anorexia is a personality flaw. Oh, Jacula, do you now know the feeling? Oh dear

10:20 pm

smooth_pappa

no... supreme court in DC

10:20 pm

Cathyar

gaawd....still 45 words left and after midnite here...guess i should quit now.

10:21 pm

stidmama

owie, Woulf! *grin* well at least he shows his daddy's good sense! *runs away giggling*

10:21 pm

stidmama

Yes Cathy, unless you are staying home tomorrow? We could bake cookies and make buckeyes (lbd posted recipe at BabAnon)...

10:21 pm

GreyWoulf

LOL, stid!! The wildest part was that he had been on a screamy jag immediately before hand and ended up happy for the rest of the night

10:21 pm

stidmama

oh -- well, I hope I can be forgiven, haven't been to D.C. in over 30 years!

10:22 pm

Jacula

stid - boys bounce? I still haven't forgiven my ex for the time when he carried our son upsatairs (son with a head of peachy hair.. he was NOT bald!) and bashed his poor little head on the frame a aa miror atop the stairs. Head bled, son bawled, yet again!

10:22 pm

NatLT

ooooh, I love buckeyes, send some this way

10:22 pm

smooth_pappa

10:22 pm

GreyWoulf

10:23 pm

GreyWoulf

Jac -- I have found that boys bounce off the floor but not the furniture

10:23 pm

Cathyar

Cathyar

stidmama

sweet dreams, Cathy!

10:23 pm

Jacula

Annie - Yes, I do know the feeling, of course I do. But I never set out to hurt you when I said whatever I said that hurt you. That's the point.

GreyWoulf

;-D

10:25 pm

JeeWhiz

Jacula

10:26 pm

Anniebrook

10:26 pm

Nef

I have played Ankhet under my name; but life got too busy to keep going on the computer too much

10:26 pm

smooth_pappa

10:26 pm

GreyWoulf

Hey JW!

10:27 pm

Jacula

10:31 pm

smooth_pappa

10:32 pm

JeeWhiz

10:34 pm

NatLT

10:34 pm

Anniebrook

10:35 pm

Nef

No, smooth, we chatted back then!

10:35 pm

jillibus

super icon, stid!!! But google insists the date is Dec 5!

10:36 pm

Nef

Beautiful, Stid! :)

10:36 pm

stidmama

Google is incorrect. He comes in the night so that children waking up on Dec 6 have their shoes full of goodies.

10:36 pm

jillibus

ashlye -- clued at 10:34

10:36 pm

smooth_pappa

ahhh... gottcha... oh... sethari (tavish) and issy made it safely from N.O. they are resettled in Virginia... and maybe married now?

10:37 pm

ashlye

i know i stll not getting it..

10:37 pm

Nef

they are married; I saw the pics! (em posted them for me)

10:37 pm

stidmama

As will our children... as soon as they get tucked in, the workers must wrap and set up for the morning.

10:37 pm

jillibus

OK -- compromise -- he comes on the night of Dec 5 and the kids wake up on Dec 6.

10:37 pm

stidmama

ashlye: pr* (before) + the current era, m7 word

10:38 pm

smooth_pappa

HA! nice. I've been trying to find some of the old gang to ge them there... P.M. and kathywan would be nice to see again. lol

10:38 pm

JeeWhiz

pe5 and pe6 please?

10:38 pm

stidmama

and since you like the icon, I am WAY outta here. Back tomorrow mid-day our time, Jill... will you be on then?

10:38 pm

ashlye

ooh thank you!! i got it

10:38 pm

smooth_pappa

fiend is there, though... as is chi doc, and a few people I haven't fgured out. lol and pakaran

10:39 pm

Nef

And Stid is right St. Nick always came to our house when I was young on the night of Dec. 5th and we'd wake on the 6th with goodies in our shoes (which is odd, since we are Irish!). But it was my AUnt's b'day; so that must have made it special

10:39 pm

smooth_pappa

night stid!

10:39 pm

Anniebrook

night, stid, feel better

10:39 pm

NatLT

night stid

10:39 pm

JeeWhiz

sleep tight STid....see you tomorrow

10:39 pm

stidmama

okay Jill, catch you whenever then!

10:40 pm

jillibus

10:40 pm

Anniebrook

good night everyone, sweet dreams!

10:41 pm

Jacula

My worker has already wrapped up and set off for the morning.

10:41 pm

Jacula

God bless him and all of you.

10:41 pm

jillibus

pe5/20 ans 6/33 - a bird and pl -- pe + wi4/8 minus tail

10:41 pm

NatLT

10:42 pm

Jacula

Goodnight, Annie.

10:42 pm

Nef

smooth; do you go to the pyrotoreunion group at yahoo? there are a lot of people who check in ther

10:42 pm

jillibus

annie -- are you leaing or saying goodnight to those who are?

10:43 pm

smooth_pappa

I do every blue moon, nef... it's been a long time, though

10:43 pm

JeeWhiz

thanks jilli, that was a strange one/two

10:43 pm

smooth_pappa

I should go back, though. I'm sure someone has already posted about ankhet there, though

10:43 pm

jillibus

*leaving

10:43 pm

Jacula

jilli - was your meal okay?

10:45 pm

jillibus

very nice, jac, thanks -- suppled mostly by the deli department -- bbqed chicken + greek salad + frozen spiced potato wedges + a nice Rielsing

10:45 pm

Jacula

I almost wish I hadn't come back here tonight, created a real eels' nest for myself, didn't I? But, sometimes, that's the way it is. So be it.

10:45 pm

jillibus

(typed correctly)

10:46 pm

Jacula

70cl bottle of Reisling, jili?

10:46 pm

rhozee

last 3. last re 5/12, pr 5/16 and the worst is mi 5/14. I need to quit and just can't leave it until I finish!

10:46 pm

JeeWhiz

Jacula, I am glad you were here...you and Annie worked things out and that is what was most important.

10:46 pm

jillibus

why an eel's nest, jac?

10:46 pm

Nef

a lot of people have posted off and on. It's kind of deserted for a while; then there are a flurry of new posts and it dies out again

10:47 pm

jillibus

70cl???

10:47 pm

Jacula

jilli - normal sized bottle of wine.

10:47 pm

Jacula

JEE - THANK YOU!X

10:48 pm

JeeWhiz

Isn't it strange how we are so much like good friends and family?

10:48 pm

rosewood36

how do you make the babble game give you the answers....when you are stuck

10:48 pm

jillibus

oh -- well, not the whole bottle, jac, fer pete's sake!

10:49 pm

Jacula

MI5/14 = Miss Farrow (actress) pluralled + consonant that beegins the word.

10:49 pm

jillibus

rosewood -- we ask for clues, and we use helpers like Lickety's list

10:50 pm

rosewood36

and what is Lisckety's list???

10:50 pm

rosewood36

can you tell that I have no clue

10:50 pm

NatLT

down at the links at the bottom, it helps you figure out what you are missing

10:51 pm

rosewood36

Cool............thankyou all so much

10:51 pm

jillibus

rhozee -- the last re5/12 is the singular of the re6/21. Maybe you mean the one before it -- re + mafia chief

10:51 pm

Jacula

rosewood - scroll down to Friends od Babble and look in 2nd column, 4th address down for Lickety's list.

10:51 pm

NatLT

tit gives you the first two letters of every word, followed by how many letters are in the word, and how many points the word is worth

10:52 pm

Jacula

Nat - you mean it not 'tit'. LOL.

10:52 pm

jillibus

rosewood -- scroll down to Friends of Babble and you'll find Lickety's babble Clues

10:52 pm

NatLT

oops, yes, I did, still getting used to my new computer

10:53 pm

Jacula

Now have a go at me for 'Friends od Babble'. Yes, Babblers ARE odd. That's the appeal.

10:53 pm

rhozee

TX Jacula and Jilibus! I need a fish on both of them. The last is the pr 5/16 . I need fireworks! I want to quit! I need a cup of coffee and a warm bed.

10:54 pm

Jacula

pr5/16 - pr*** & preen.

10:54 pm

jillibus

rhozee -- pr5/16 -- sit in front of the mirror and pr*** your hair, makeup, etc (pr + pixie)

10:55 pm

rhozee

Thanks all! I really needed that. Can't believe I missed the last one Jacula. Thanks again!

10:55 pm

Jacula

Or, failing that, take the word for the prostitute's 'boss' and give him an extra consonant after his first letter. It would servie him right!

10:55 pm

jillibus

my clue was cleaner, jac - lol!

10:55 pm

Jacula

Serve him right, I meant. Even though he does drive about in a car with blacked-out windows.

10:56 pm

brightspot

any clues for ne5.20

10:56 pm

Jacula

jilli - clean or clear? Who cares, if it hits the spot?

10:57 pm

jillibus

ne5/20 -- another way of speeling oh nuts

10:57 pm

jillibus

true, jac <VBG>

10:57 pm

Duff

ne5/20 Rhymes with a major car renting company

10:57 pm

Jacula

ne5/20 uses the 6 tile at the end.

10:57 pm

jillibus

*spelling (too much Riesling for supper)

10:57 pm

GreyWoulf

so Jac does that mean he is a boss for pirate prostitutes? :-D

10:58 pm

Jacula

jilli - you did consume the whole 70cl then? LOL.

10:58 pm

brightspot

thank you

10:58 pm

mrpresident

hello everyone!

10:58 pm

jillibus

NO

10:58 pm

jillibus

hi mrp!

10:58 pm

Jacula

Could well be, wolfie. Hi again!

10:59 pm

GreyWoulf

hey again -- Seb just needed his midnightish cuddle to go back to sleep

10:59 pm

GreyWoulf

hey mrp!!

10:59 pm

Jacula

jilli - okay, I believe you. Takes at least 100cl to knock me out these days!

10:59 pm

mrpresident

Woulf!! ((hugs!))

10:59 pm

jillibus

awww, woulfie!

11:00 pm

GreyWoulf

11:00 pm

prima

hey wtf how to play i thot it was like scrabble or something

11:01 pm

GreyWoulf

it's actually kinda eerie -- Seb would make Dr Pavlov a happy man --- he has certain routines that he must follow or he can't sleep

11:01 pm

Jacula

Hi MrP.

11:01 pm

GreyWoulf

and if we alter the routine by something as simple as reversing who performs the task he knows and responds differently

11:02 pm

NatLT

kinda is prima, you have to make sure that each tile connects to the one before it to make words, like scrabble and boggle

11:10 pm

jillibus

oh NatLT!!! How awful!! Your poor guy!

11:10 pm

Jacula

When my Mum went to the 'bum clinic' at a loca hospital (they are surveying us all, since bowel cancer seems to be familial), they told her she could drin one glass of red wine a day with the drug (or maybe pacebo) she had been given. (We were taking part in a trial.) I bought her one of those glasses that holds one full bottle of wine, She took it into the clinic.

11:11 pm

jillibus

Haha, jac! That's the spirit!!!

11:11 pm

NatLT

I am going to get off here and try to call him, he has had a really hard couple weeks, his daughter may be really sick too, I am not sure how much more he can take

11:11 pm

NatLT

thanks for all of your concern, I will see you all soon

11:12 pm

Jacula

Nat - sending you positive vibes...

11:12 pm

GreyWoulf

11:12 pm

jillibus

Best of luck, Nat, to you and yours -- well deserved, I'm sure

11:12 pm

renfield

(((nat))))

11:13 pm

mirandapan

Nat--best wishes--our house burned last Jan. We're just moving back. Lost almost everything. Lots of stuff to deal with--all the best

11:14 pm

Jacula

jilli - indeed it is! Any kind of recover from cancer is led by positive thinking on the part of the patient.

11:14 pm

Jacula

Doesn't always work, but it's worth a try!

11:14 pm

jillibus

jac -- I know, having had 3 kinds

11:15 pm

Jacula

miranda - Oh no! (((HUGS))) Such a loss and such a mess all of that. (I work for Fire Service, btw.)

11:15 pm

jillibus

(boob, bum, and skin x2)

11:17 pm

Jacula

Bloody hell, jilli! Sorry,. Dr_G. but you must see my point. jillia - if I were wearing a hat, i'D TAKE IT OFF TO YOU.

11:17 pm

mirandapan

Thanks, Jac--we lost about 200 boxes of books in the attic (we're English profs) and, yes--such a mess. We still think we have things that we don't, if you know what I mean.

11:17 pm

Jacula

Sorry! Caps lock thing again!

11:17 pm

renfield

me 2 jilli!!!!!! hat;s off!

11:18 pm

Jacula

miranda - books... lost... I do feel your pain. No joke.

11:18 pm

jillibus

thanks, but the hell with it (pardonnez moi, Dr_G)

11:18 pm

renfield

ouch miranda! me 2!

11:19 pm

jillibus

miranda -- how awful -- can any of the books be replaced? They are so precious...

11:19 pm

mirandapan

We've joked that our children are secretly calling each other with glee that they don't have that attic to deal with after we die--

11:20 pm

Jacula

Having said that about books, I'm aboput to embark on a book cull. The books I put in the boxes will go t the local hospital and be sold for their funds... parting is still such sweet sorrow though....

11:20 pm

jillibus

miranda, I know what you mean -- I have so many files and books and things my poor only som will have to deal with because I just can't toss anything out.

11:21 pm

mirandapan

We've become pretty philosophical about it--you can't IMAGINE how many books we still have--but those LPs--about 500--we kept meaning to transfer to disk

11:22 pm

jillibus

sigh -- we lost LPs years ago to a leaky bar sink above their shelves.

11:22 pm

mirandapan

but thanks for your concern--I'm so conscious about fire now--won't burn candles--even though this one started on the outside of the house, possibly by a flipped cig during a chinook wind

11:23 pm

Jacula

miranda - if you have any p[articular records wanted, just ask. I'll list them for my other half to restore for you, if poss.

11:23 pm

jillibus

And I still have some vinyl Danny Kaye with nothing to play them on...sic transit gloria mundi

11:23 pm

Duff

This chat has been so enlightening that at the "flip", I am going to open a 750 ml bottle of Merlot while I also open and read a favorite book.

11:23 pm

jillibus

boo cigarettes

11:24 pm

GreyWoulf

Gloria got sick on the bus on Monday?

11:24 pm

mirandapan

11:24 pm

GreyWoulf

*joking* :D

11:24 pm

renfield

my mom left me all her music - 78's 45's 33's 8 tracks, cassets, and cd.s

11:24 pm

jillibus

duff -- exactly where are you south of Puget Sound?

11:25 pm

mirandapan

11:25 pm

mirandapan

ren--do you have something to play those 78s , etc. on?

11:25 pm

Duff

Jillibus, I am in Olympia...right near the Capital

11:25 pm

jillibus

rennie -- can you play them?

11:26 pm

jillibus

Duff -- you're right near stidmama

11:26 pm

GreyWoulf

de7?

11:26 pm

Jacula

Duff - you are? I will leav some rihidrat (e-hyrdating fluid) sachets in herr and a packet of paracetamol...

11:26 pm

renfield

i do miranda - she also had a 1950's record player + her pioneer stereo system - sweet!

11:27 pm

mirandapan

great!

11:27 pm

renfield

yes jilli! i'm slowly working my way through them.

11:28 pm

Duff

Jillibus -- While I have been "lurking" -- I had a feeling by her conversation that I might be near her.

11:28 pm

jillibus

we put a lot of stuff on tape -- now that's out of date too

11:28 pm

renfield

de 7 = we are depraved on account we are de 7 ed (west side story)

11:28 pm

mrpresident

de7 - take away stuff that you need

11:28 pm

jillibus

you should get in touch, duff -- and then coem here agin for another visit!

11:28 pm

GreyWoulf

tu

11:28 pm

Duff

Jacula,

11:29 pm

Jacula

de7. wolfie is what someone does to you when they don't want you finding you dearest things. de8/65 is the one that does that to you.

11:29 pm

GreyWoulf

ty -- I hate when I misposition my hands on the home row!

11:29 pm

Duff

Jacula -- is that a reference to our "mildly" damp climate?

11:29 pm

renfield

don;t mess w/ wolf tu tu

11:30 pm

Jacula

de7 & plural 8 - if you grew up disadvantagedm you may have had a de7/48d childhood. Hope this post does not offend!

11:30 pm

jillibus

woulf -- I remember a Letterman show years ago with a typing speed champion demosntrating her skill -- but she had her fingers on the wrong keys and it came out gibberish

11:32 pm

renfield

nothing like a case of stage fright to humble one;s self

11:32 pm

jillibus

brb

11:32 pm

GreyWoulf

just goes to show, jilli, that when you have to do something that is dependent on proper position and timing --- ALWAYS take the time to double check everything!

11:32 pm

Jacula

ji;;i - LOL. I am such a sped typist.

11:32 pm

Duff

Jillibus, I've just started Babbling and have really enjoyed listening (reading) the conversations. Everyone seems so familiar that I just haven't been so bold to interrupt. Maybe tomorrow if I see her online...I'll let her know where I am. Thx. for mentioning it!

11:33 pm

Jacula

And lol at me again for typing it wrong. Well, it is 5.31 am here!

11:34 pm

renfield

mistress...don;t let the sun catch you typing - the nights the time for your speed

11:34 pm

GreyWoulf

Well, welcome, Duff!

And don't be afraid to dive into a convo -- we were all strangers at one point -- it is always great meeting a new friend :-)

11:35 pm

Jacula

4th dressing (lovingly applied by my daughter that time) has come off injured knee. A knee is an awkward joint to dress.

11:35 pm

GreyWoulf

on the topic of speed typing -- I do have to admit that chatting and hunting at the same time has indeed done wonders on improving my typing speed

11:36 pm

Jacula

ren- the sunlit hours are few now.

11:36 pm

renfield

good mistress - longer time on the chat! yayayya

11:36 pm

chic

1 to go...

11:36 pm

Duff

Grey Woulf, Thx. Next time I won't be so shy. And to be honest -- I don't multitask as well as all of you. It's all I can do to figure out the grid.

11:37 pm

Jacula

Waiting with baited breath, chic...

11:38 pm

Jacula

ren - have you worked out a way to get my beloved to get divorced yet?

11:38 pm

chic

Done!

11:38 pm

renfield

duff - i think torg calls it multi slacking

11:38 pm

GreyWoulf

It comes with practice, Duff -- if you check our profiles you will see that a lot of us have been doing this for quite awhile --- just you wait

11:38 pm

Jacula

No, he's not till with wifey.

11:38 pm

renfield

we could stake her and say we made a mistake.....

11:39 pm

Jacula

Never mind. It's my prob to solve off Babble.

11:40 pm

Duff

I'm beginning to realize that the grid becomes secondary to the socialization. Nonetheless, it will take some practice to keep up. "Multi-slacking" -- that's me!

11:40 pm

GreyWoulf

I think you will do just fine, Duff {Hug}

11:41 pm

Jacula

I'm not sure if I ever want to mary again, done it once. But, to be honest, I don't like him not being divorced yet after nearly 4 years. I can now see where my ex-hubby's laady (now his wife) was coming from on that one.

11:41 pm

GreyWoulf

help with the mi5?

11:41 pm

Duff

GreyWoulf, hugs back at ya!

11:41 pm

Takes us all diff. times spans to recover, I guess.

GreyWoulf

thanks ren

11:43 pm

TeaNCrackers

it's been a long day!

11:43 pm

Jacula

Hugs are good. Hugs are what keeps Babble going, especially if folks meet in real life.

11:43 pm

GreyWoulf

anytime, TnC -- that is one of my prime functions in life -- to give hugs to deserving folks1 ;-D

11:44 pm

Jacula

Wolfie - remember pthed dinner invite to our place.xx

11:44 pm

GreyWoulf

In college, I used to wear a button that read "Hugs - given with pleasure, received in ecstasy"

11:44 pm

TeaNCrackers

GreyWoulf

I haven't, Jac

11:45 pm

GreyWoulf

help with the im7?

11:46 pm

Jacula

T&C - well, what you have observed is that most Babblers are genuine people and that the friendships formed are not false.

11:46 pm

flosey

Hi all, just waiting for flip, see what tomorrow's grid is like, then off to bed. Going to Victoria tomorrow

11:46 pm
