1:01 am

Atalante

1:01 am

jillibus

I have zero 7s and 8s

1:02 am

MVA

all my animals come from a rescue centre ata, which is why i'm banned from going there!

1:02 am

chic

yummy drink- sa7

1:03 am

Atalante

I didnt even mean to go there - the rescue place is part of our local kennels / cattery and I just saw her as I took Sily in to the cattery!

1:03 am

Uneaixoise

oh, i was at our humane assn this afternoon and a little boy was adopting a precious puppy that looked like a cross between a beagle and a brittany spaniel--sooooo cute!

1:04 am

Atalante

awwwwwww!

1:05 am

carra

i had a meeting with someone and they had a dog.. it was half golden retriever and poodle.. so adorable and big was only 8 months too

1:06 am

saphyre

sounds cute carra - had a golden for 16 years

1:06 am

Hugabugs

bottom row greyed

1:07 am

carra

i forgot what he called it a golden doodle or something

1:07 am

Uneaixoise

LOL!!

1:07 am

saphyre

:)

1:07 am

Uneaixoise

95 to go and i'm winding down . . .

1:08 am

MonkeyGames

Yes, unfortunately people tend now to believe that golden doodles aleways combine the best characteristics of each breed and tehy're being "bred true" along with many other "new designer breeds".

1:08 am

MonkeyGames

Doxiepoos, etc. My favorite word they have come up with is Dorkies.

1:09 am

Uneaixoise

that's hilarious!

1:09 am

MonkeyGames

I take that back. There was a shitzpoo on some show the other week.

1:09 am

Atalante

I like cockapoos

1:09 am

carra

they are so cute.. they look like stuffed animals i just wanted to lay down and hug him lol

1:10 am

jillibus

agreed, monkeygames -- deplorable, and often they claim these mixtures are "about to be recognised" -- BS

1:10 am

VolleymomDee

I all!

1:10 am

saphyre

hi Dee

1:10 am

Uneaixoise

hey, dee!

1:10 am

jillibus

Hi Dee, hi

1:10 am

VolleymomDee

Hi actually lol

1:11 am

MonkeyGames

Hilarious, une, on one level and sad on another. People ar epaying thousand for these "breeds" when they could get the same dog at a rescue. The claims that they "always" combine the "best" characteristics are obviously spurious. Some of them even have whole new genetic probloem complexes.

1:11 am

VolleymomDee

1:11 am

sorry what a dufus

1:11 am

1:12 am

corpsvalue

hi all

1:12 am

MonkeyGames

I didn't mean to imply you weren't, just wanted to make my views clear as well. But yes, names like dorkies and sitzpoos ARE very funny, especially as the people coming up with them clearly don't get the joke.

1:12 am

Erda

Mine is a Russian Blue named Machka!!

1:13 am

jillibus

I'm totally a "responsible purebred breeder never has a dog end up in a shelter -- the breeder takes the dog back and finds a new home."

1:13 am

saphyre

my cat that just passed was part russian blue - she was beautiful

1:13 am

Uneaixoise

hey, erda!

1:13 am

jillibus

*climbing down off soapbox*

jillibus

night nan!

1:14 am

MonkeyGames

I do own a purebred bought through a breeder, just to be clear, because I am a real Dane lover, but I am just appalled at the whole designer mutt thing and wish that people would go look at the shelters if they want a mix OR a purebred.

2:42 am

Killer hornet story? I'll turn on the TV.

2:43 am

ren8

tired as my son has been up since 5.30 but otherwise all ok

2:43 am

Frances

I heard that annotherone. I got stung by a swarm of them when I was about ten. One of the worst experiences of my life!

2:44 am

MonkeyGames

Thanks, anotherone. I have it on now.

2:44 am

annotherone

they've invaded us from France apparently and they're killing the bees

2:44 am

MonkeyGames

Clue for the sn?

2:45 am

MonkeyGames

Geesh, anotherone, that must be happening here too, then. I'll look into it.

2:45 am

MonkeyGames

I'm in the Netherlands.

2:45 am

annotherone

this is a gruesome massacre

2:46 am

MonkeyGames

NAsty! What with this and global warming and all the fungal problems we may lose the honey bees altogether!

2:47 am

Frances

There goes the price of honey through the roof!

2:47 am

annotherone

everyone in UK joined the beewatch program?

2:48 am

ren8

i darent turn the telly over, little man is watching tom and jerry, there would be uproar!!

2:49 am

Frances

Didn't know there was one. I've been watching lots of huge bumble bees recently - seem to be the size of small birds.

2:49 am

annotherone

you take photographs of the bumblebees in your garden and send them in to a site so they can monitor the types of bees and where they are living

2:50 am

MonkeyGames

Wonder if we have something like that. I'll look into it.

2:50 am

MonkeyGames

Clue for the sn?

2:51 am

ren8

there is not a sn

2:51 am

annotherone

there's a page showing how to identify the bumblebees and join the bee watch at http://www.bumblebeeconservationtrust.
co.uk/bumblebees_id.htm

2:51 am

MonkeyGames

Yes there is. List says sn5/12.

2:52 am

ren8

you must have a different list to me....did you get it from lickety

2:52 am

MonkeyGames

Yup. Trying to do as much as possible before little Walter gets up so thought I'd go straight to that list.

2:53 am

ren8

I have just looked again at lickety list and there is no sn on there

2:53 am

Hugabugs

yes there is an sn5/12

2:53 am

annotherone

I've just opened the list and there is an sn5,12

2:53 am

MonkeyGames

264 words today, right? My Lickety's has an sn. Interesting.

2:55 am

Andree

2:56 am

Andree

2:56 am

ren8

Oh I see what is happening now, the printable clues are yesterdays

2:57 am

Frances

sn5/12 means insolence; impertinence. Sounds like what happens when you drop a plate - diff 2nd letter

2:58 am

MonkeyGames

Thanks!

2:58 am

Hugabugs

I have sh x 12.. am I missing any?

2:58 am

Andree

3:01 am

Hugabugs

3:01 am

4:07 am

Eva

hey rolin-just tuned in and I've hd the same thing now, to varying degrees, for abotu a month. They say it's probably a virus effecting the inner ear. I'm beginning to wonder, but it is really difficult.

4:07 am

rolin

for about a month???.....ooooooh greeeat

4:08 am

Eva

I'm not predicting that for you and it may be something entirely different, but with these ear viruses apparently 1-3 weeks is par for th course.

4:09 am

Eva

4:09 am

rosalind230

4:14 am

Eva

4:16 am

Atalante

well ... either I'll get her or my best friend will get her. I'd really like Claire to have her, as she wants anotther cat and this one would be perfect. But if she doesn't, and I don't think she will, I can't leave her at the shelter. I just can't! She'll have to come home with me. Oh dear :)

4:17 am

Eva

Didn't see that second s there! Thank yoiu!

6:38 am

MonkeyGames

ta6/24?

6:38 am

inge

*how much a sw** is, laughing too hard

6:38 am

MonkeyGames

No thylos?! Dang!

6:39 am

inge

ta 6 is like the store chain , drop last letter and then plural

6:39 am

Haz1558

ta6/24 - plural ta5/14 - cross woman, influenced by drink. (on its way to being what archers shoot at)

6:39 am

chiley

almost like the Wal-Mart competitor

6:39 am

Sherbie

nice clue, haz

6:40 am

Haz1558

Thanks Sherbie.

6:40 am

Sherbie

I had gotten the word already, but had not looked up the definition. never heard of it before! had you?

6:40 am

MonkeyGames

Thanks! That's the ta's killed off as well, then. Bogging down in the th's. Have about half of them.

6:40 am

herinfernallady

Haz if you check out cuteoverload.com there is a very cute spaniel puppy

6:41 am

Haz1558

Yes - it's a Scots word, used quite frequently over here. It's not a term of endearment to be called it.

6:41 am

periwinkle

Did any one see my request for clues for the 8's

6:41 am

Haz1558

peri - the only one I have so far is an8/50 - plural an7/36 - an, a vowel then a misspelling of the opposite of heavy.

6:42 am

MonkeyGames

Oh yeah, sorry. Only one I have is plural of an7, first part of a battery type followed by second have of pediatric rehydration drink

6:42 am

Sherbie

Haz, my daughter's inlaws are from Scotland, will ask them if they know it.

6:42 am

periwinkle

tagreat clue Haz

6:44 am

Haz1558

You're welcome, inge.

6:44 am

MonkeyGames

The tr 6/18's?

6:45 am

gracewer

tr 8/50 - builds on tr 4/6 which is short form for type of math then add ending that means most

6:45 am

MonkeyGames

Just got one, sounds like French for sad.

6:45 am

Sherbie

Haz, i just looked it up on wikipedia and it's got a very concrete definition, too, not just the more figurative one you gave.

6:46 am

Sherbie

monkeyg, that's a good one, thanks.

6:46 am

Sherbie

Monkeyg, didn't know it was an English word.

6:46 am

MonkeyGames

Not getting what comes after the math half?

6:47 am

Haz1558

I imagine so, Sherbie. The word has probably been changed over the years and probably has regional differences as well. Northern Ireland uses lots of Scots and Irish words and probably puts its own spin on them.

6:47 am

junior

Hi all

6:47 am

MonkeyGames

Sherbie, neither did I. I reject a lot of perfectly good words because I speak Dutch and they ARE Dutch, so I think I'm noticing them uselessly. So it goes.

6:47 am

MonkeyGames

Hi there.

6:47 am

Sherbie

gotta just try everything. good thing we're not penalized for the wrong words we try.

6:48 am

6:49 am

Haz1558

Junior - it's a fairly easy grid, I think.

6:49 am

MonkeyGames

That's right. Downright stagger. Look as pale as possible.

6:49 am

MG, after the math add Loch **** monster

Haz1558

You've got a plastic bag for emergencies? I had to laugh when a friend told me about being on a coach tour. One of the passengers was afflicted with travel-sickness and sat with a plastic bag, handles over ears, ready for any eventuality.

6:51 am

annotherone

Haz1558

Good morning Lori.

6:55 am

MonkeyGames

Clearly related to the word trousers. I can be so dense!

6:55 am

Haz1558

It just needed a nudge in the right direction.

6:55 am

MonkeyGames

So in the tr's that leaves me with the tr6 that is not a sad French word.

6:57 am

Haz1558

tr6 - put an extra consonant in the attempts (tr5)

6:57 am

Haz1558

The consonant is placed before the last letter of the tr5.

6:57 am

MonkeyGames

And taht was it! Thank you for all the babysitting.

6:58 am

MonkeyGames

What's the ti7 like?

6:58 am

Aha, should have seen that one. Thanks!

Hey, Scarlet

9:00 am

hurshy

i am 80% done and really ought to eat something and possibly shower and do other various things. however, if i am back with food in two minutes, you'll know just how strong the pull of babble is...

9:00 am

Haz1558

se5/10 - looks like I will be, in French. se plus the beginning of dried grape.

9:01 am

Vicuna

Just don't take your computer into the shower with you, hursh. That could be dangerous!

9:01 am

Hi, grannymaxx!

So that leaves one more se5/10 and then those too are defeated.

Charm

hey grannymaxx

there's really no reason you couldn't have a clear panel in your shower with a monitor installed behind it and a keypad below it...

9:02 am

Thanks Preethi - Spangle with her summer hair do!

9:03 am

Scarlet

Do it, hurshy... just give some attribution to the World of Babblonia!

Scarlet

LOLOLOL, Vicuna...

i don't want to encourage workaholics though...

9:04 am

hurshy

i am morally opposed to workaholism

9:04 am

Vicuna

Do Babblers count as WORKaholics?

9:04 am

Scarlet

Wrongheadedness... no workaholics... this is a Babble mania...

9:04 am

hurshy

working hard is one thing, but people should have a life outside of work

9:04 am

hurshy

no we certainly do not vi

9:05 am

Scarlet

Not that the two are mutually exclusive in personality

Vicuna

Oh bother. I have to go administer snack to the inmates. And just when the creativity was really flowing...

9:05 am

Preethi

Hurshy -- I agree with you

9:05 am

they might be mutually exclusive in terms of hours in the day though scarlet :)

9:05 am

MonkeyGames

Nobody for that last se5? I have 8 words to go and I might have to give up.

9:05 am

Scarlet

LOL, hurshy!!

9:06 am

Haz1558

Whereabouts is it, Monkey?

9:07 am

MonkeyGames

Don't have a stats panel, but I can say it is not the ones you just clued nor is it a word that resembles something to do with weed.

9:07 am

Haz1558

There's se5/14 - se plus the gerund ending rearranged.

9:07 am

prismmgc2

any hints on the Y?

9:07 am

Scarlet

Must go enter the world of grocery-shopping and other errands. I'll come back later for the last 90... even pull up the list then! Best Babbling to all!

9:07 am

Haz1558

se5/1- almost like the beginnings of a Jane Austen novel, but different last vowel.

9:07 am

MonkeyGames

Oh, thanks, that must be it.

9:08 am

hurshy

hmm i thought that's what you meant by having to do with weed... like sensory experience...

9:09 am

hurshy

which one has to do with weed then? maybe i don't have it

9:09 am

Haz1558

We must both plead weed ignorance.

9:10 am

MonkeyGames

I lived in Amsterdam for 13 years and now live in Haarlem.

9:10 am

MonkeyGames

The weed one is like, ehhm, how to describe, well like one of the five things you perceive with but the last vowel is different.

9:11 am

hurshy

well that's what haz just clued.

9:11 am

hurshy

9:14 am

Haz1558

th5/16 - definite article is followed by the gerund ending rearranged and missing its vowel. Plural for th6

9:14 am

hurshy

if you think about th5/20, th5/24 should become obvious

9:15 am

MonkeyGames

OK, got the prev. clues and working on this last...

9:16 am

Haz1558

th6/21 one who believes in God as creator

9:16 am

I would swear David Carradine just walked by out the window and tripped on the loose brick there. I'll have to check that celebrity-sightings site I found once when Rutger Hauer rode by me on a bicycle in Amsterdam.

9:23 am

prismmgc2

break time... gotta start real life. back later

9:24 am

MonkeyGames

David? The one from Kung Fu, anyway. That's David, right?

9:24 am

Jadeomoan

Yup, MG, it's David Carradine.

9:25 am

MonkeyGames

REally, really looked like him. That'd be fun, eh? I know he visits Amsterdam, and this would be a fabulous day to check out nearby Haarlem, where I am.

9:27 am

MonkeyGames

Anyway, have to get back to work. If I had been on the ball I would have opened the window and yelled, "Mr. Carradine!" but alas I was not so motivated. Off I go to pack until little Walter gets up. I'll pop in and out to clue between boxes.

9:27 am

harpjane

is he selling yellowbook dot com?

9:28 am

MonkeyGames

I have no idea about that, honestly. I'm not really a celebrity watcher and know little about the man but I did happen to notice him, and a few months ago he was interviewed in AMsterdam.

9:29 am

MonkeyGames

If it was him, I mean. Is his hair really long right now? This guy out the window had fabulous extremely long white hair.

9:29 am

MonkeyGames

Really must go pack now. Have fun, all!

my mom has a black thumb so for mother's day I want to plant her something that will survive her... I was thinking blueberries. Does that sound possible? She has the acidic soil but it's a partcial sun area... will it work?

10:46 am

aceymcc

nope sorry. still looking for that one too.

10:46 am

stidmama

Niamh, usually that would be an ideal situation, but they need good amounts of water the first summer or two until they are well established.

10:47 am

oggy

thanks anyway

10:47 am

aceymcc

your welcome.

10:47 am

my mom lives in WA, Sumner area (south of Seattle) it's near a lake and it rains quite a bit here I don't think water will be an issue but I'm worried about sun

10:48 am

pida 1

he 6/27 please

10:48 am

Wyrd

dont huckleberries grown ther naimh? blueberries are much the same just a bit more delicate

10:48 am

stidmama

blueberries are often considered a "bog" plant -- they like wet feet but it has to be well drained also. So around here, they are put on mounds of organic material. The "blueberry bog" in our community (no longer maintained commercially) is flooded winter long. We are near Olympia. Watering in the summer will be ESSENTIAL. we do not get enough rain from July to September to satisfy the needs of nearly-planted ericaceous shrubs.

10:48 am

Wyrd

grow there even, i havent had enough coffee

10:49 am

pida 1

nm, just saw the time. Have to go to work. See ya tonight.....*poof*

10:50 am

stidmama

I have blueberry bushes in my yard as well. They are planted in a trench filled with peat on top of the sand mound near the septic system. Eventually I will move them to the boggy area near the road. They have been in place for seven years and I still need to water in the summers.

10:50 am

stidmama

later pida

10:50 am

Niamh

so if I fill the hole with peat moss first do you think it will survive her? I could tell her to water it but like I said she has a black thumb. I would really be best if she could just ignore it

10:51 am

Niamh

bye pida

10:51 am

stidmama

She cannot ignore it the first year. But you can put a drip line to it on a timer that will automatically give it an inch of water twice a week...

10:51 am

inge

bontanist husband agrees with stidmama. You could check in Google for gardening in your state and area for further choices, like the state's agricultural extension service would have lots of advice for you

10:51 am

Wyrd

i have blueberries just planted normally and they do fine, im on the coast of oregon

10:52 am

inge

ok Niahm, get out the shovel!

10:53 am

Niamh

good suggestion stid, I'll look into that!

10:53 am

stidmama

Niamh -- you could try this: I have purchased most of my fruiting plants from "Raintree Nursery" in Morton. They have a one-year replacement guarantee...

10:53 am

Niamh

I've got the sisters and my kids... we'll all have the shovels out!

10:54 am

:-) They are slow growing, about three feet tall after seven years (but they are not in the right location). Different varieties get bigger or are dwarf... the plants in the bog down the road are about 8 feet tall and the same around. Ideally they need some training and pruning each year to maintain shape and size, but I admit to letting mine be... they are still small enough that the dogs running through them do most of the work. :-( I ahve about 20 bushes. Hoping to move them to the bog this coming autumn after the area for the garden has been leveled.

She has also been playing for solo/ensemble competitions. Tomorrow is her b-day, but 13-yr old ahs a parade and 6- yr old has a soccer game, don't know if she'll be able to even play on her b-day. How sad :(

2:24 pm

bunnyvicious

My oldest daughter got her report card yesterday, all low B's in her academic classes, over 20 points dropped from the last card. I grounded her for 3 weeks, my Mom is mad, mad, mad at me! Says she shouldn't be grounded for B's...

2:24 pm

bunnyvicious

Sorry, that was kinda off the subject.

2:24 pm

But, bunny, if you know she CAN do better, I fully understand.

2:25 pm

Deeha

I have had the most amazing day. I am on holiday in S Africa and this morning we saw 17 giraffe including one only three days old!

2:25 pm

stidmama

no, that makes sense to me bunny... our elder child is not participating in sports this term because there were TWO C grades on the report card. We expect A's, for which we pay a small bonus; we accept B's (after all middle and high school are times of many changes), but C work is not acceptable.

2:26 pm

bunnyvicious

2 sa 7's

2:27 pm

emtiandeca

I went thru the same thing with my son. His grades came back up where they belong within 3 weeks!

2:27 pm

bunnyvicious

She is in the 5th grade, the work is a breeze, and I know she's smart. If I lower my standards for her, the rest will follow. Just undergoing the verbal assault from 3 sets of grandparents is already wearing thin. I'm glad someone agrees with me though!

2:27 pm

stidmama

we are some pretty mean parents, you know -- i bet most of us don't allow the kids to play computer games mid-week...

2:28 pm

Karys

oohh Deeha, that is brilliant !!...I am in Wales this week surrounded by little lambs, not quite the same as little giraffe

2:28 pm

lynxxx

Deeha - must be wonderful to see them all in the natural state

2:28 pm

stidmama

in our school letter grades don't begin until middle school. Our 5th grader however "gets it" when schoolwork is not done on time or to the best of his ability (which is considerable)

2:28 pm

bunnyvicious

My kids aren't allowed on the comp PERIOD!! They erased all of my photos, twice. Gonna but them one to share.

2:29 pm

My boy realized the severity when I would not let him do the John Hopkins testing this year or Whos Who for Middle School students.

I am so lucky to have had this holiday. I am staying with me sister who has been out here for 20 years but this is my first visit

2:30 pm

Karys

how long are you there for Dee ?

2:30 pm

stidmama

Deeha, what are the flowers like? I know many of the "newer" varieties we are seeing in the U.S. are from S. Africa... they are so pretty!

2:30 pm
