ARB

Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou Lickety

12:40 am

stidmama

hillary, I was just thinking the same thing! it's like some sort of synchronicity or something (struggling for the right concept-word). We'll see the same word or set of words for a couple weeks sometimes!

Uneaixoise

thanks ornith

12:42 am

ARB

I don't think so -- just remember there are a limited number of letters -- 26 -- in varying quantities -- and a limited grid of 25 places. Letter combinations will randomly reoccur frequently.

1:20 am

jenn, if you look below the grid where it says "friends of babble" there is a link

1:20 am

Douglas

There were some rather high ******* at that Buffalo-Ottawa fight recently...

1:21 am

Douglas

*hockey game

1:21 am

Ornith

it gives the first two letters, the number of letters, and the point value of all the words in the puzzle

1:21 am

Jenn2

thanks so much ornith! i am just blind apprantly.

1:22 am

Ornith

do you know how the points work, jenn?

1:23 am

Jenn2

kinda...

1:24 am

jillibus

finally got the final 8

1:24 am

Ornith

points = sum of points on the tiles for 4 letter words. for 5 letter words it's sum x2. for 6 letter words, sum x3. etc for longer ones.

1:24 am

Ornith

qu counts as two letters even though it's on one tile, btw

1:25 am

sprite

The 'Help' button at the right top of this page is helpful too

1:25 am

Jenn2

ah, gotcha. that makes sense.

1:25 am

1:43 am

depends on the time of birth, it is on the switch

1:43 am

FranMag

that's true, she's more gemini like her dad i think

1:44 am

did everyone see the news about the colossal s5 that was caught? they're even bigger than giant s5

1:45 am

no, did not see it. Was it scary?

fully grown it would be 4 me5 in length... shudder

1:49 am

mrpresident

the amazing thing about this 'beast' is that there are over 200,000 of them in the ocean! up to 20 meters in length

1:49 am

FranMag

mrp, this one is a colossal s5, even bigger and heavier than the giant variety.

1:49 am

sprite

In a way I love that. Nature rules!

1:50 am

FranMag

you're right sprite, we'll never know everything that lurks out there.

1:50 am

sprite

but remind me NOT to go swimming in the ocean over there ;)

1:50 am

mrpresident

*enormous hugs* sprite!

1:51 am

mrpresident

you don't have to worry about swimming with the sq5... they hunt from 200-1000 metres down

1:51 am

sprite

how are you doing, mrP? Bathroom refurnishings on their way?

1:51 am

Ornith

at this rate, the next ones they find will be a kraken and cthulhu!

1:52 am

let them hide deep in the ocean, where mankind cannot go - and cannot harass them!

1:52 am

just look up the colossal squid -- thanks for the link, sprite. Ugh!

wow sprite, never seen those words before, thanks

FranMag

wow, that's a totally new one

2:10 am

Dispatch

there are a lot of left overs from last grid aren't there?

2:10 am

FranMag

of course there's no definition

2:11 am

sprite

Me6 is a chemosterilant. It's also used in creaseproofing and flameproofing textiles.

2:11 am

FranMag

yes dispatch, a good test of semi-short term memory

2:11 am

Ornith

wish my memory was better, bet I'm missing lots of yesterday's!

2:11 am

FranMag

hmm, so we've probably been exposed to it and never knew what it was called

2:12 am

sprite

and were perfectly happy with that, Fran ;)

2:13 am

FranMag

now every time we see a particularly uncreased piece of textile we'll be wondering if it's been treated with me6

2:13 am

Dispatch

i didn't have too many phantoms in the last grid...but boy there is a lot here!!

2:13 am

wish that were true, Fran! Next time it is in a grid, I will probably have to search for it just as long as today, lol.

2:23 am

the flip is, it's almost 3:30 now

2:23 am

FranMag

it flips for me at 8:00 pm which is perfect for me because i'm definitely a night owl

2:24 am

ARB

And I'm addicted enough that I MUST do the grid before I do anythig else!

2:24 am

sprite

if I can manage, I babble first and do the rest later :)

2:24 am

VolleymomDee

ditto here too ARB

2:24 am

Ornith

I'm a night owl, but I get tired come 3am or so. and of course I can't play at the flip worknights

2:25 am

ARB

Even if I can't manage, I do the grid first!

2:25 am

Ornith

good thing you're so fast at it then arb!

2:25 am

ARB

Can I give any clues before I move on to the rest of my day?

2:26 am

I am down to my last Ts and Ws and they are all 5 or 4, so no thanks, ARB :)

2:31 am

2:32 am

2:32 am

ooh dee, you just reminded me i have a haagen-daz bar in the freezer, they were on sale

2:33 am

VolleymomDee

I always make too much pasta LOL

2:33 am

2:34 am

VolleymomDee

still impressive

2:35 am

VolleymomDee

2:35 am

Ornith

better than twice my speed and without the list, sprite! and I thought I had a really good vocab.

2:35 am

7:45 am

ADHDWordLover

have u heard of the organization of people who have elected to not have kids hursh?

7:45 am

mom23

congrats hurshy--my daughter's due in early April, and tho' i've been thru it, everything i did is now w-r-o-n-g! i roll my eyes at some things and get the evil eye back! but once the baby's here, i'm hoping i'll be a bit smarter in her eyes!

7:45 am

evanonut

some don't get a choice

7:45 am

ADHDWordLover

i'm a cat person too.

7:46 am

dfa

none of the yucky sleepless nights... just lots ofcuddles!

7:46 am

ADHDWordLover

this is true also.

7:46 am

evanonut

my kitkat is my lifeline to sanity

7:46 am

hurshy

no, i have not heard of such an organization

7:46 am

hurshy

i'm sure you will, mom23 :)

7:46 am

ADHDWordLover

when i worked for a newspaper, there were ads for their meetings, but i can't remember the name of it sry

7:47 am

dfa

sounds really cat ladyish but i have 4... was supposed 2 be 3 but one of the babies nearly died and i saved its life so i had 2 keep him!!!!

7:47 am

ADHDWordLover

they do trips and parties, etc

7:47 am

hurshy

sounds nice... sometimes i feel very judged for not wanting children

7:48 am

dfa

no need 2 feel judged! my auntie never had kids... had her cat for 18 yrs! and shes perfectly happy!

7:48 am

dfa

in fact i know this couple that never had kids and have the best life! they go travelling everywhere and have the times of their lives!

7:49 am

hurshy

one mom of a student came up for a visit (boarding school here) and sat at our table for lunch. within the first five minutes, i kid you not, she said to me, "so when are you going to have all the kids?" - never even met the woman before!

7:49 am

ADHDWordLover

and that's disgusting that people would make u feel that way.

7:49 am

dfa

hurshy some ppl just think that thats the way of life!

7:50 am

Anniebrook

hurshy, people like that mother are just plain stupid

7:50 am

hurshy

i was quite taken aback, to say the least :)

7:50 am

ADHDWordLover

i cannot imagine hurshy... what an idiot

7:51 am

dfa

ppl always ask me when im having kids! im like woah... slow down!

7:51 am

Anniebrook

I did not have children for many years and I was bombarded with questions about having children...

7:51 am

Anniebrook

it is no one

7:51 am

Anniebrook

business

7:51 am

Cathyar

finally got the he8...tks hurshy :)

7:51 am

hurshy

i don't understand how so many people think that is acceptable. i mean, they don't say, so when are you going to get a better job? or why are you still renting, why don't you buy a house?

7:52 am

hurshy

and having kids is so much more personal!

7:52 am

Anniebrook

*it is no ones business...but that does not stop people from asking that stupid question

7:52 am

ADHDWordLover

too true

7:52 am

hurshy

and for those who want kids and are having trouble, it's such a painful thing to be asked about

7:53 am

Anniebrook

hurshy, just smile and ask them "Why are you asking?"

7:53 am

dfa

oh my god i only just got the vegetable!

7:53 am

evanonut

ADHDWordLover

9:28 am

EvaNadine

9:28 am

Charm

but soy ice cream is truly yummy.

9:29 am

Dorens

since my family was jewish, bagels could have cream cheese, but only with some sort of fish...herriing, smoked whitefish, lox, etc. there was no such thing as raisin bagels back then

9:29 am

ADHDWordLover

ooooooo i'm done w/my cereal and i don't want to work now, tho i don't really consider it work, with cats on my lap and a fire going while i sit at my pc in the loft of the barn, overlooking snowy woods

9:29 am

jean1953

am off,. hopefully bbl, happy babbling everybody:)

9:29 am

Dorens

bagels weren't meant to be sweet, nor anything that went on them. and since i hated fish, i was just cream cheese with swiss cheese, or onions (the ones that were in the herring) or tomatoes

9:29 am

Scrabbler

Ooo, Charm--Tofutti--1 pint disappears quickly!

9:29 am

ADHDWordLover

lox, bagels and cream cheese... i grew up w/that dorens (on the jewish side)

9:32 am

ADHDWordLover

Eva - think of an athletics discipline where seven events are taken, use the start of that plus a rearranging of the word that goes with tidy
