12:23 am

maniac_mitch
er8
12:28 am
DRBERNABO
well, it sounds like it is iron related, but it is not really
12:29 am
DRBERNABO
it is actually something you find in churches (well, really old churches I would think)
12:30 am
kierlex
does the 10 start with F? I missed that if anyone said it
12:30 am
DRBERNABO
yes, it starts with F
12:31 am
kierlex
what does it rhyme with? LOL
12:31 am
jillibus
drB, see my icon :D
12:32 am
DRBERNABO

12:36 am
GreyWoulf
He was at the ER being checked out due to not keeping his food down today, TO
12:36 am
GreyWoulf
It turns out it was just a bout of gastroenteritis
12:36 am
72 Temple Owl
oh poor little guy..
12:37 am
debbinla
hope he starts feeling better grey
12:37 am
jillibus
poor little guy -- did they give you something to soothe his tum?
12:37 am
helenkeller
ooooh, glad he's okay
12:37 am
DRBERNABO
ooh, I grayed a letter!
12:37 am
GreyWoulf
But the Dr expressed to Kirsten his gratitude that we were so attentive to Seb and his needs that we brought him in BEFORE he became dehydrated
12:37 am
ARB
thank you DrB -- took me a while, but your various clues shoved me along
12:37 am

12:39 am
VolleymomDee
dumb question... how do you google a definition?
12:40 am
GreyWoulf
jilli -- they really didn't have anything they could give him, but they did give us some pedialyte -- but at least we have confirmed that there was nothing more serious going on
12:40 am
DRBERNABO
just type in the definition and see what comes up
12:40 am
VolleymomDee
ty vm didn't know I could do that!!!
12:41 am
DRBERNABO
I type sentneces from student papers to see if they are plagarizing and google works great for that (but not in a good way)
12:41 am
VolleymomDee
yipppeee learned something new & found the word ty dr!
12:41 am
ARB
I have 5 8's ch X2, fe, or, sl. Does anyone have another?

12:42 am
kierlex

12:42 am
72 Temple Owl
and good god - if a sentenc is used it's not plagiarizing if you cite the source is it?
12:43 am
DRBERNABO
not if you site the source
12:43 am
DRBERNABO
but students like to cut and paste things without attribution
12:43 am
72 Temple Owl

12:43 am

12:48 am
DRBERNABO
the 10 is a compound word (i.e., it breaks into two other words in the grid)
12:48 am
72 Temple Owl
ok - off to bed with 59 for tomorrow. happy babbling everyone!

12:50 am
kierlex
i am so confused about this dang 10!! what is a british loyalist???
12:50 am
helenkeller
no flosey - not at all amazing - there are word racers out there that can find that many words in a grid this size in under 2 minutes (well, on easier grids than this one)
12:51 am
kierlex
yes, helen, but they are freaks.
12:51 am
helenkeller
a person on tangleword with a super high rating said the other night that they type 130 words per minute
12:51 am
cybernan
I'm assuming it is a United Empire Loyalist, but that isn't getting me anywhere!
12:51 am
DRBERNABO
British loyalist during the American Revolution or a conservative Brit today
12:51 am
helenkeller
LOL kier - yes, i agree, total freaks!
12:52 am
GreyWoulf
finally got the 10
12:52 am
Dippnall
forget the Brit loyalist - that's questionable - go for the reliquary and pluralise
12:52 am
maniac_mitch
who was it helen?
12:52 am
jillibus
yes, that's what I thought, DrB -- not what nan said because hers is a Canadian term
12:52 am
MayneGuy
Or Conservative (capital C) in Canada
12:53 am
MayneGuy
As in Sir John A
12:53 am
helenkeller
i don't remember, i don't pay that much attention, but their ranking was in the high 3000's
12:53 am
DRBERNABO
I'm not sure how universal the term is today in terms of usage, and I immediate thought of boats going back and forth across the Charles River during the Revolution (but that is just me)
12:53 am

that is such common behaviour. As soon as someone starts taking care, all the rest of the family sighs relieved and goes on with their own lives. That meeting is very good thinking.

4:04 am
Kazzer99

Yoink
My revised total is 91. There are 91 words. Hi kth and Angb
4:13 am
sprite
I trust kanga. There are 114 words.
4:14 am
Haz1558
I have 112 but some are not words, they are collections of letters.
4:14 am
kangabrat
... 119 ... (running out of puff)
4:14 am
FranMag
i can personally vouch for 102 so far.
4:15 am
spellit
I find it amazing that there are 140 words here!
4:15 am
FranMag
go kanga!
4:15 am
FranMag
of course something is wrong when you get to 98 and just then find tr4/4
4:15 am
FranMag
hi spellit!
4:16 am
kangabrat
thanks for the encouragement fran!
4:16 am

4:16 am
spellit
Hi all - I have been concentrating hard here
4:16 am
FranMag

4:17 am
Angb
Thought you might like the similarities - Maui and all that Fran
4:18 am
FranMag
you know i don't know that whole legend, something i should look up soon though.
4:19 am
kthdsn
does anyone have the E from the left, I can't make it work
4:19 am
sprite
hi spellit
4:19 am
FranMag

4:19 am
kthdsn

4:19 am
sprite

4:19 am
spellit
Hi Sprite, Fran and all
4:19 am
Angb
Not in NZ ... do you have a Maui legend too?
4:20 am
FranMag
yes, Maui is a hawaiian legend, a strongman apparently
4:20 am
spellit
The 10 is OK if you know your church history
4:21 am
Yoink
another phantom: heretic
4:22 am
kthdsn
I know nothing about church history lol not really my thing
4:22 am
FranMag
angb, just looked it up, something about him lassoing the sun and making it go slower across the sky.
4:22 am
FranMag
kate, i love alice cooper, we listen to his radio show
4:22 am
sprite
now there is a guy I could learn to love! He is making days longer?
4:22 am
Angb
Gee these Maui's can harness the cosmos - pulling up islands and lassooing the sun
4:23 am
kthdsn
fran I didn't know he had a radio show, I have all his music though
4:23 am
FranMag
it's gotta be the same Maui
4:24 am
FranMag
it's a cool show kate, i think they have a website, haven't looked it up yet though.
4:24 am
Angb
I thought Alice Cooper would have passed on to the big music hall in the sky by now
4:25 am
kthdsn
no he's still making records and touring angb
4:25 am
Angb
LOL how did he survive?
4:26 am
FranMag
apparently angb, the legends of maui are part of the evidence that the Maoris indeed came from Polynesia.
4:26 am
Yoink
Kate, he's on Planet Rock over here. You can get it on digital or online probably
4:26 am
FranMag
angb, i think it's because he golfs
4:26 am
kthdsn
oh cool I'll look it up then
4:27 am
kthdsn
I think my auntie has played golf with him, she also used to live next door to him, although their houses were miles away from each other lol
4:27 am
FranMag
you know, left the rock star lifestyle for a more sedate existence, golfing, radio show, a few concerts here and there.
4:27 am
spellit
Off for coffee - see you later
4:27 am
Angb
Probably enough about Maui but one last question. Where do the "scientists" say Hawaiian Polynesians come from ... there is some hint now about China down here
4:28 am
FranMag

4:28 am
FranMag
later spellit!

Good morning Babblers. It appears that Dr God got a special deal on E's and R's.
5:37 am
Haz1558
or, plus the french infinitive for 'to laugh', but switch the vowels around, then give the plural ending to a word whose singular ending y
5:37 am
Haz1558
There are two ch8 words.
5:38 am
Levia
ok, I dont understand the cake layer bit
5:38 am

Haz1558
If you've got the first part, rearrange the letters of the word that can to fatigue, or what goes on car wheels.
5:40 am
Haz1558
Eva - it uses the highest scoring tile.

5:43 am
Eva
or was I combining clues?
5:43 am
Eva
thankis Haz!!
5:43 am
Haz1558
fe10 - a combination word. Use the fe4/7 that looks and sounds like a word for being afraid, but spelt differently and to it add British conservative party members. Or the end of a plural vi word meaning triumphs.
5:44 am
Haz1558
I'm not sure,Eva, but glad you've got there!
5:45 am
Levia
great clue Haz, got it immediately

6:08 am

hello again, back for a clue for fe8/55, please
6:09 am
Haz1558
fe8/55 - plural of fe7/40 relating to iron. The word ends ceremonially.
6:10 am
sugar
tx haz, will ponder!
6:10 am
KatieMcG
haz, i'm being really thick could you please clue fe 7/40 :-)
6:11 am
Jacula
I've got 2 x fe7/40.
6:12 am
sugar
got it, tx haz!
6:12 am
KatieMcG
Now I know I'm being really thick, I have actually got both of them, sorry :-)
6:12 am
Haz1558
fe7/40 can either be plural of the Mersy crosser, or fe, consonant, then a word that sounds like the opposite of wrong, but which means a ceremony
6:13 am
Haz1558
No problem, Katie!
6:13 am
Jacula
I was thinking of Bryan from Roxy Music but now I'm hearing that Gerry & The Pacemakers song. AARGH! It'll stick in my head all day!
6:14 am
Haz1558
Did the Liverpudlians sing it under the scaffolding?
6:14 am
Jacula
Haz - I can see you grinning from here.
6:14 am
Jacula
Haz - LOL. Amazingly, no.
6:15 am

6:15 am

6:15 am
Haz1558
Good morning Book Docto.
6:15 am
Haz1558
Doctor - what is happening with my fingers??
6:16 am
Haz1558
ci5/12 - ends in a vowel and has a double helping of a consonant in the middle
6:16 am
Jacula
I've made a model of you, Haz., and I'm sticking pins into the fingers. LOL.
6:17 am
Haz1558
That explains it!
6:17 am
KatieMcG
Ok the clue I was given early is think cherry in a new zealand accent :-)
6:18 am
sugar
tx haz, monkeys are slipping!
6:18 am
Haz1558
An alternative would be, badly spelt Knight, then the beginning of the paddy field produce.
6:18 am
Jacula
katie - you gave me a ch6/24 with that clue. Thanks.
6:18 am
KatieMcG
Actually that's the wrong word that is for the ch 6/24 sorry, but it is quite similar
6:19 am
KatieMcG
I really do need to get more sleep ;-)
6:19 am
sugar

6:20 am

6:30 am
Jacula
Hi flosey.
6:30 am
Eva
neat stretchy rubber things you put over the bottom of your shoes, that have coiled wires on them, which bite into the snow and ice. I'm quite nervous abotu falling, but with these I feel completely confident.
6:30 am
Jacula
Eva - Oh, I have some of those but they're caled 'shoe chains' over here.
6:31 am
Jacula
I think Haz has reciprocated re the 'voodoo' doll - I can't type now! LOL
6:31 am
Eva
the yak traks are a new variety, much lighter and you can even walk on floors without tearing them up
6:31 am
Merk
Is anyone else having problems getting Lickety's List tonight?
6:32 am
flosey
that sounds like a great idea Eva - I'm nervous walking on ice and snow now - wonder if they have them in Canada?
6:32 am
Eva
can't rmemeber whether they're yak trax or traks
6:32 am
Jacula
Eva - I'll look out for those. Mind you, it's been some years since we've had and substantial snow and ice here.
6:32 am
Jacula
Merk - don't know. Not using a list ... yet.
6:32 am
mousey
