cybernan

what a silly word ... br 9

12:29 am

brandyjack

i agree

12:30 am

FranMag

i found that too easily, i think i've been babbling too long

12:30 am

DRBERNABO

why? nice compound word

12:30 am

melonheadjujube

it is silly - iguessed it right out, no sillier than had it been do8 - a sinker.

12:30 am

brandyjack

i figured it couldn't possibly be so i typed it in anyway.....

12:30 am

melonheadjujube

aaaaaaaaaaaooooooooooooooooow!

12:31 am

kkiln

I must not be playing long enough...

12:32 am

ARB

was that pain or discovery, Melon?

12:33 am

melonheadjujube

i was echoing back at lickety - just being silly. it only hurts when i laugh - really - or bend over, or look over my shoulder. . .

12:33 am

FranMag

yay! finally greyed out a letter (that's more than 1 word)

12:35 am

FranMag

melon, i know your pain is not funny, but the picture of you keeping perfectly still kind of made me chuckle.

12:37 am

melonheadjujube

way to go Fran - you made me laugh! - s'OK ;)

12:37 am

FranMag

oops. :-)

12:38 am

melonheadjujube

which letter did you grey out?

12:38 am

cybernan

just found the un 9 -- doesn't make any sense either!

12:38 am

FranMag

the bottom M.

12:38 am

chic

I'm not getting that un9; is it 2 words or is the un just a prefix?

12:39 am

maniac_mitch

12:39 am

melonheadjujube

12:39 am

chic

FranMag

1:30 am

sprite

hey jilli!

1:32 am

Andree

after yesterdays conversation about racists I cannot believe that enable allows ab4, takes a fair bit to shock me

1:32 am

sprite

enable has some very nasty words in it.

1:33 am

FranMag

yep, enable allows a lot of racial slurs

1:33 am

FranMag

and thanks for pointing that one out.

1:33 am

ARB

Remember, a word is a word is a word. It's how it is used that is distructive or mean or nasty.

1:33 am

FranMag

good point arb

1:34 am

FranMag

yay! greyed out another letter, the upper right T, appropriately the last word was a fish!

1:34 am

sprite

That is true, ARB. Still, dictionary also says it is "Disparaging and Offensive". Guess I will forget it right away then.

1:35 am

sprite

We used to have a fish in every grid. Are we back to old times? :)

1:36 am

FranMag

i guess we have to have something handy to whack ourselves with.

1:37 am

jillibus

Andree -- A2Z doesn't list ab4 or several other words enable (or morewords) do allow, such as ofay, the sh*ts, dago, twat, and maybe others I haven't come across yet but appear in the grid

1:37 am

sprite

but not the t4! I love T4.

1:38 am

FranMag

especially in sushi or sashimi for me.

1:39 am

sprite

owwwswwwww..... Fran! I did not even have breakfast yet. And now I am drooling already.

1:39 am

FranMag

jilli, sounds like censorship!

1:39 am

FranMag

i've already eaten and i'm still drooling!

1:39 am

Andree

I know jilli but this is one of the more sensitive issues here

1:40 am

FranMag

and we did have some t4 poke (hawaiian raw fish dish)with dinner.

1:40 am

egbokmom

whew! I'm up to 50, so I'll quit for the night. Sorry I haven't been chatty tonight, didn't even check the clues here, but I'm juggling between much craziness here. Night, all!

1:40 am

FranMag

night egbok!

1:40 am

Andree

bye eg

1:40 am

jillibus

well, I guess that's why BabbleRabble got all upset last night about sa5/16

1:40 am

ARB

1:40 am

sprite

Good luck juggling then, egbok, and good night.

1:40 am

1:42 am

FranMag

babble isn't into psychopharmacology.

1:42 am

Hello Anne38 Where have you been? everytime we try to talk to you you've gone to bed!!

1:42 am

FranMag

oh jilli!

1:42 am

jillibus

gloomy words, eh?

1:42 am

ARB

I came in at the end -- he was unhappy with a word found in the grid and levelled some uncomplimentary comments re other babblers.

I like BabbleRabble - is everything ok again or is there a falling out of some kind?

1:43 am

FranMag

1:43 am

sprite

I am really sorry to hear that :(

1:43 am

ARB

Can anyone clue ba 5/16 -- the first ba?

1:43 am

jillibus

no problem now -- just another sensitive word in the grid today

1:44 am

Andree

I am sure everything is okay, he called all us aussies racists, we are pretty irreverant lot

1:44 am

Anne38

hi jakesmum its larlie annie gone to get a chicken

1:44 am

1:44 am

I have never ever noticed anyone here making racial slurs, except the grid itself.

1:44 am

FranMag

sorry arb, don't have it yet

1:45 am

jakes-mum

how very dare she!! her grandson has been badgering me for days now to log on in time to talk to her! then she puts food infront of us!!! lol

1:45 am

jillibus

well, you can always check the archived chat

1:45 am

ARB

Sprite, you're right. You can't get upset because there's an offensive word in the grid.

1:46 am

Iain

gm all

1:46 am

we could collectively refuse to enter them :)

1:46 am

Anne38

hi lain

1:47 am

sprite

Ok, hope that BabbleRabble will be back with us, not just playing, but also chatting. He is a smart guy.

1:47 am

Dax

past tense of the sound "Dolly" makes - ARB ba5/16

1:47 am

Andree

from different parts of the world we are offended by different things, you might be shocked by something which does not bother someone else and vice versa

1:47 am

ARB

WOuld't work -- no control. Babble would havve to be checked against a different word list than Enable, one that doesn't include the offensive words.

1:47 am

ARB

TY Dax

1:48 am

Dax

i was trying to not make the clue to easy

1:49 am

sprite

That is true, Andree. In Holland it is perfectly normal to wave at people with your palm facing them. In some countries that is extremely offensive. If you don't know that, you are in for big trouble.

1:49 am

ARB

good clue

1:51 am

Dax

thx.. anyone have the bo5/16 .. not the "extra" bo5/16

1:51 am

Anne38

1:53 am

sprite

I did, BabbleRabble. Said I hoped you'd be back.

1:53 am

FranMag

2:04 am

sprite

I don't think ARB or anyone else did attack you, BabbleRabble. Since there is another racial slur in the grid today, conversation went back to yesterday's discussion and I wanted to know what happened. That's all.

2:05 am

If you need a hint or two let me know. Lord knows I owe you a few.

They say that it is 80% fixed, but I don't believe it. Since it happened China has lost 20% of its export business because the internet is used for so much ordering.

2:46 am

it is a bad word, Merk, a racial slur.
A + he who rules the joint minus last letter

2:46 am

LOL Fran!

But you don't friten me at all!

Spran works too, it's like what our mother would call us if she was trying to call me, but started with sprite accidentally. (if sprite and i were sisters of course)

2:49 am

FranMag

those of you with siblings know what i mean.

2:49 am

sprite

Oh yes! I used to hate it when my mother mixed up my sister's and my name. And now I am doing it myself with my own kids.

2:50 am

You can't believe what I say when I try to call one of my 3 daughters -- I use every other female name in the family, my late mother, my sister, my favorite aunt etc!

I was saved from a long search by the past tense Dolly clue, Ba5/16 was weird to me. Also the 2nd V was tough and new. And there are a couple of compounds, they always confuse me.
All the rest was known :)

TY BabbleR

4:22 am

Yes, Nonnie, it's a stupidhead compound word, imo

4:22 am

Haz1558

It's a compound word, combining the opposite of over and another name for a head or chief

4:23 am

Haz1558

Deputy would do the job just as well (for that word). It was good enough for Deputy Dawg.

4:24 am

How did Deputy Dawg cross the pond to the UK?

Haz1558

By television? Or is there a punchline coming up?

No, no Haz, I fondly remember Deputy Dawg, and didn't know that anyone in the UK knew about him

4:27 am

Oh, he was very much part of television when I was growing up. I loved him.

4:45 am

Haz1558

I fain would take my stand - thanks Douglas.

4:45 am

Eva

we are all forming words. As you enter them they'll appear in a lit to the right of the grid. Then we give each other subtle hints-not the actual words.

4:45 am

Douglas

It's consideredd poor Babble etiquette to write words in the chatterbox, AnDROID

4:45 am

Haz1558

me5/14 - french for 'poop'.

4:45 am

Odin

Hopefully you are froming the wrods from the grid AnDROID and typing them in until you have them all.

Droid, i am....what;s your question?

It's really worth it to read the rules-they aren't complicated, but it will clarify everything (at least about Babble)

my question is i cant see any word forming in this grid

4:50 am

AnDROID

can anyone else see any word ?

4:51 am

Douglas

You don't have to take straight lines, AnDROID

4:51 am

Haz1558

Look at the bottom four letters in the left hand side of the grid. You should be able to see at least three, four letter words from there. Type them in the add word section, and you will see it entered on the My Word List.

4:51 am

NonnieLight

The tiles don't "light up" if that is what you're asking. You type the word, then press enter.

4:51 am

AnDROID

no straight lines ?

4:52 am

AnDROID

dont tell me that i can jumble up the letters

4:52 am

Haz1558

The tiles just have to touch, though not all at once. Please read the help section, it explains the whole thing.

4:52 am

lynxxx

the letters in the word must 'touch' in the correct order only

4:52 am

Douglas

veryent splng of the thing that receives eagles at their journey's end

OK, then as Haz suggested...click on the help icon located in the upper right-hand corner. I bet a lot of your questions will be answered.

4:55 am

anded? as in left 'anded?

I'll second that, Douglas!

4:55 am

Odin

Exactly lynxxx!

4:56 am

lynxxx

silly boys!

4:56 am

Douglas

No, lynxxx, anded as in "logical AND" applied to two Boolean values (things that can only be True or False)

4:57 am

Odin

I mean like left 'anded...no bright mind here!

4:58 am

lynxxx

!!! douglas, I never know when you are pulling my leg! but I'll read up on that

'Anded you do your homework? Anded you wash your hands? Anded you clean your teeth?'

4:59 am

5:00 am

Haz1558

Anded is the mother's most useful word.

5:00 am

NonnieLight

lol

5:00 am

lynxxx

wouldn't that be andidu rather than anded Haz ?

5:00 am

Douglas

I'm actually being straightforward on this one...If you could look in a computer chip, you would find many AND gates, with two inputs and one output

5:01 am

Haz1558

It depends on pronounciation, lynxxx, linguists are divided on this one.

5:01 am

Odin

I'm just still left 'anded.

5:01 am

Douglas

The inputs have two values, which, while represented by voltages, are considered ones and zeros, or trues and falses

5:01 am

The Melbourne Herald Sun says...

Prime Minister John Howard inadvertantly sparked the storm when he taped a goodwill message for a fundamentalist Christian group accused of inciting anti-Islamic hatred. Islamic leaders condemned Mr. Howard for appearing in the DVD message for Catch the Fire ministries. The controversial movement has sponsored a major multi-denomination gathering in Melbourne on Australia Day. The PM's office has just released text of the Australia Day message.

5:15 am

licketySplitAUS

And btw at the early age of 13 I had the displeasure of shaking Jonny's hand - and he was slimy back then.

5:20 am

Douglas

I don't know whether this is good or not, but John Howard has been much more vocal in confronting radical Islam than any American leader...

5:21 am

licketySplitAUS

douglas - it's because whole suburbs here are populated by Islamics

5:22 am

jean1953

Douglas

Is John Howard eligible for reelection?

5:23 am

licketySplitAUS

We need a female Prime Minister! I should get mrp to run!

5:24 am

lynxxx

He won't go away! and the majority of Australians are pretty conservative and keep voting him in !

5:24 am

licketySplitAUS

5:25 am

Douglas

Hillary Clinton just announced her candidacy today, but the nation is in the throes of Obamamania

Plot Summary For "Pan's Labyrinth":

"Pan's Labyrinth" is the story of a young girl who travels with her pregnant mother to live with her mother's new husband in a rural area up North in Spain, 1944, after Franco's victory. The girl lives in an imaginary world of her own creation and faces the real world with much chagrin. Post-war Fascist repression is at its height in rural Spain and the girl must come to terms with that through a fable of her own.
