CsCdeFounder
well, jilli, me personally...while i'm new to this game, this isn't the first game i've played whose setup is exactly like boggle/tangleword/word racer, so i find this to be pretty easy. I also happen to type extremely fast and since there's no penalties for typing in wrong guesses, that pretty much gives me free reign to type whatever words i want in.
1:14 am
BabbleRabble
congratulations, Cs ... I will always be the tortoise that never beats the hare .. . even, I enjoy the challenge
1:17 am
CsCdeFounder
i enjoy the challenge as well, as this game still isn't unbelievably easy to play either. I always manage to get stuck on 3 or 4 small words which in a puzzle of 300+ words, is like looking for a needle in the proverbial haystack. But usually at that point, I'll just start typing in every single combo for a word I can think of, even if they don't sound like words to me.
1:18 am
jillibus
Whatever, Cs, you're obviously miles ahead of the likes of me!
1:19 am
BabbleRabble
Why compare? Kudos to Cs! Kudos to you!
1:19 am
Jellen
Absolutely, BabbleRabble!
1:21 am
CsCdeFounder
i'm not comparing, jilli, nor am i trying to make anyone feel bad. Sorry if that's how you or anyone else took it. I'm just saying I've played games like this one before, and also tons of other word games online, so that helps out when I play this game. I'm not trying to belittle the game for anyone and I'm sorry if it came across that way.
1:22 am
BabbleRabble
That is not my intention either, Cs. You are a remarkable player. I tip my hat to you!

Are there any 'o' clues please?
1:48 am

No CsC - the only 'thing' you wil loose is the Tile & Word Stats after 2 weeks
1:48 am
herinfernallady
No Cs it wont prevent you from playing. I was unmemebered for about a year before Jader organised for my membership
1:49 am

CCF, you get a 2 week trial period, after which you lose the tiles and the number of words and such, and you don't get to acquire an icon, profile, etc.

There is a 10 year old that has a membership CC
2:47 am
CsCdeFounder
i'm usually curious about the age ranges because in my experience, i've usually found that most people my age don't seem to be into word games, so the average age range i seem to encounter in word games is in the 40-65 range, with some younger and some older
2:47 am
loredana
Never mind Lickety imagine all the work you will get done so when they arrive home you be able to spend time with them and remember absence makes the heart grow fonder and we will look after you
2:47 am
FMitch
How old are you CsCd and what gender?
2:47 am
herinfernallady

2:48 am
licketySplitAUS

herinfernallady
Is it? I bought an American book - Easy cooking with 5 ingredients has a recipe for Kahlua, bought it to get rid of the pesky packet products in my fridge/cupboard. The next 2 weeks have been labeled Apocalypse week - sounds more interesting than 'getting rid of the crap in the cupboards and fridge'
2:53 am
FMitch
I don't know about that ursh considering the lenght of CdCs's postings but then men do go on sometimes :)
2:53 am
licketySplitAUS

3:31 am

hi Ata and FMitch, and also goodnight all. I have a chick flick and some peppermint chocolate with my name on it. Happy babbling :)
3:34 am
CsCdeFounder
i understand, granny...but at this point, i can only handle so much stress and cigarettes happen to be my outlet/relief...it's the not knowing what's wrong with me that is stressful, not to mention going to the doctors/specialists/hospitals all the time and coming up empty...i'm sure smoking doesn't help matters, but it's how i halfway cope with the stress
3:34 am
grannymaxx
bye sunny, enjoy both!
3:34 am
Haz1558
Sleep well, sunny.
3:34 am

CsCdeFounder
i have to wait another month or so before i can start going back to doctors and whatnot...i've kinda given up hope of a diagnosis at this point since i've already had a biopsy done and that didn't reveal much, so not sure what else can really be done here
3:36 am
FMitch
If anyone could come up with a good idea for recycling ashtrays, thee will be millions going cheap!

3:41 am
Haz1558
Even worse, nowadays if I have to thread a needle, it takes good light, glasses and the conviction that it will be worth it in the end. Never is...
3:41 am
FMitch

Haz1558
It's gingernut biscuits, sandwiched together with whipped cream and crushed pineapple. That's fridged overnight, then covered with cream - the biscuits become nice and soft.
3:46 am
FMitch
Is the top left the cinnamon pavolva?
3:46 am
rolin
*nodding*...the aussie version is to used a biscuit called a chocolate ripple...a slightly lighter consistency than the gingernut..cream them trogether with a hint of mint..
3:46 am
Haz1558
Okay, there's a ritztorte (meringue with chopped nuts and crushed ritz biscuits, topped with whipped cream - that's the top left.

3:53 am
rolin
huh...haz...sorry..??...tap tap tap...i think im getting some kind of garbled nonsense from the chat log....lol
3:54 am
Haz1558
It's the invasion of the body snatchers again - normal Haz would be too sensible to make that kind of remark.
3:54 am
rolin
well yeah...i was opting for the alien invasion idea
3:56 am
Haz1558
Next I'll be extolling the virtues of Paris, the heiress rather than the city. Proof positive.
3:56 am
loredana
Hello rolin nice to see you again
3:56 am
ren8

3:56 am
grannymaxx
clue for third er6.18?
3:56 am
loredana
Haz what have you been drinking?? The cooking sherry? lol
3:57 am
FMitch
I think the the8 & 9 are the strangest words I have seen in the grid for a looong time. Needless to say they are from the world of chemistry.
3:57 am
rolin
haz...if that happens...would you understand if we leapt thru the screen and tried you down very tightly?
3:57 am
ren8
hello loredana
3:57 am
FMitch
Ata you grab Haz'z left arm I'll take the right and rolin can put the straight jacket on.
3:57 am
loredana
hello ren!!
3:58 am
Haz1558
You would have my permission indeed. Husband would probably have given me a lethal injection before that could happen, though.
3:58 am
rolin
im with ya...
3:58 am
Haz1558
You'd have to get past a shorn though valiant spaniel.
3:58 am
FMitch
lol rolin, we were both thinking along the same tack
@Go, go go" It's for your own good Haz, sorry.
3:58 am
rolin
lol..*thinking*...considering he would actually have access to such a thing...must make for an interesting relationship
3:58 am
loredana
well I still dont see why Rosie left the View over a catfight with elisabeth or was it really over her request for a raise??
3:59 am
Atalante
awwwww how is shorn-but-valiant-spaniel?
3:59 am
Haz1558
Not only that, there are firearms available - usually for shooting cattle, but hey, he's adaptable. I know my place.
4:00 am
Haz1558
The spaniel is shorn, and looking less than valiant, (snoring and valiant don't go together)
4:00 am
Atalante
fab gn6/24 word
4:00 am
Atalante
LMAO maybe she;s having valiant dreams
4:01 am
rolin
hmm have gn6/30

4:22 am
FMitch
Oh that reminds me there was a bit on TV this week re a woman who does drink her own pe, snofts it too and claims it has cured her of alergies. The mind boggles sometimes.
Sorry ddb we don't do 3rd letters but it is the same one as used by most of the other se's
4:22 am
loredana

4:22 am
ddb4nana

oh yes, its meant to be very good for you ....
4:23 am
loredana
i have heard that people use their pee to relieve chillblains!!! true
4:24 am
Haz1558
Would it cure not being able to sew?
4:24 am
Atalante
probably! doubt you'd even be able to see a needle after that
4:24 am
Haz1558
Would it cure Paris Hilton?
4:24 am
Haz1558
We could be onto something....
4:25 am
Atalante
must be worth a go
4:25 am
FMitch
Oh god don't say that lore, I have recently been diagnosed with chillblanes
4:25 am
grannymaxx
it would chill my bl(r)ain too lore :)
4:25 am
FranMag
haz, she's probably already done that
4:25 am
loredana
no but a good dose of apricot kernels or arsenic would
4:26 am
FMitch
Tell me you just soak your feet in it rather than take internally
BF thinks it's hysterical I have chillblanes in the summer.
4:26 am
loredana

4:28 am
Atalante
ur** acts as a softener
4:28 am
FMitch
From cream cakes to foot cream. Suddenly not feeling so hungry :)
4:28 am
ddb4nana
could someone tell me the best way to find a word online when a clue is given such as "very hot chili"?
4:29 am
BabbleRabble
se 7 -- s + a mistake: ***or; and one way or ***ther; plural
4:29 am
rolin
but mitch...it does show the breadth of the babler's involvement in the world..
4:29 am
Atalante
google ;)
4:29 am
FranMag
google "scovill scale" nana, it should list hottest peppers
4:29 am
Haz1558
ddb4 - use www.morewords.com - type in the letters you know, leave dashes for the rest and work down the list given.
4:29 am
rolin
ddb...put it into google..and get the page able chilli types
4:30 am
ddb4nana
ty all...I'll try those ideas...
4:30 am
FMitch
10 out of 10 for trying ddb, makes a nice change. A directional clue would be to go round anticlock wise
4:30 am
FranMag
hey babrab!
4:30 am
BabbleRabble
ddb4, if that clue doesn't work ask me for another
4:30 am

Scarlet
I just smile benignly, and tell them that I have my own inner light, feather... and they smile back and leave quickly...

I once told a JW that I was a witch and practiced voodoo (totally don't even go together LOL) but they ran. I asked if they wanted to come in and discuss why my way of living is better.
9:40 am

Later Pink
9:40 am
Scarlet
I use "grey water" from household use, for the gardens, and schlep buckets to the sunflower gardens and the morning glories out of reach from the hose... I try to conserve as much as possible

9:41 am
bichon
I use the water the basement dehumidifyer produces
9:41 am
herinfernallady
Wurdy i used to live in a unit opposite a big JW church they were nice and i wasnt allowed to be mean to them (the ex said to behave) Scarlet, using grey water is a big thing her. I had to let my garden at my old house die, it was sad
9:41 am
wurdygurl
yes, they do. Now, I have in laws that are JW, so I can't have as much fun with them as I used to
9:42 am
Scarlet
I've even taken to plugging the bathtub when showering, to scoop out the used water to feed the gardens...
9:42 am
wurdygurl
I always want to go over on prayer night or whatever they call it and bring a deck of cards and beer and interrupt their stuff just like they interrupt everyone elses, but hubby wont let me.
9:43 am
herinfernallady
We do that here scarlet. Some homes have introduced the 'melllow yellow' toliet policy
9:43 am
pinkhatlil
your so naughty wurdygirl lol...i really am going now bye!
9:43 am
herinfernallady
Lol wurdy i could so easily do that myself
9:43 am
wurdygurl
you already poofed pnk!
9:44 am
Scarlet
Yes, here, too, Lady. Asheville is in fairly serious condition... if it rains, the ground is too hard to absorb it, and we will have flooding... it's one thing or the other.
9:44 am
LeslieAnn
it's a double poof, she's quite the magician
9:44 am
Scarlet
Poof2... a new Babbler designation!
9:44 am
herinfernallady
Some pubs have put coloured ice in the urinals to cut down water use in the boys toilets
9:45 am
wurdygurl
Just knock on their door just like they do mine on CHRISTMAS for crying out loud! and be like "hey, I see you are having a party, lets have some fun and talk over beer and euchre"
9:45 am
bichon
We do the mellow yellow too. People are always shocked at how low our water/sewer bill is. Sometimes people have bill thrice ours
9:45 am
Scarlet
Isn't ice water, though, Lady? I don't get that one...
9:45 am
LeslieAnn
or actually, probably not a very good magician, if she needed 2 poofs.
9:45 am
Fiber Art
We conserve water, too, only flushing when necessary (or if people are coming over!), I capture wash water to flush kitty litter down (flushable corn-based litter).
9:45 am
wurdygurl
nah, she just apperated back and left again
9:45 am
Scarlet
LOL, LeslieAnn. HI, Fiber...
9:46 am
LeslieAnn
oh, so we're getting more for our money?
9:46 am
wurdygurl
exactly. And since it is free....
9:46 am
LeslieAnn
niiiiice
9:46 am
herinfernallady
Ok Scarlet a smattering of Ice melts over the course of the night and the urinal cleans its self slowly, were as the standard system the water flows frequently, think leaky tap
9:47 am
Scarlet
Okay, I get it now, Lady. Gosh, the ladies in here have some excellent ideas for water conservation. Yours is a good one too, bichon. We don't run a dehumidifier, though...
9:48 am
wurdygurl
ummm, what is that r that is under the s in the top corner? It has to be a ry right?
9:48 am
LeslieAnn
yup, ry + vowel + consonant, wurdy
9:49 am
Fiber Art
wurdy, it's a scandanavian rug
9:49 am
wurdygurl
bless you leslieann
9:49 am
herinfernallady
Scarlet i think the toliets get cleaned anyway at the end of the night. Ok what really irks me the most is schools that have leaky taps and toilets, drives me batty. All schools should have rainwater tanks, duel flush bogs and non leaky taps
9:49 am
wurdygurl
my phantom today is stools I have typed it in countless times already
9:50 am
Scarlet
Since I am the resident Finn, I salute Fiber knowing that word. *Bows to FA!"
9:50 am
greenbayladi
any a clues please
9:50 am
bichon
Our basement is a living space [when kids lived at home] and we have furniture down there. It would be all mildewed if we didn't run one. We are very parsimonious. We compost every bit of vegetable matter.
9:50 am
wurdygurl
a clue for a...it comes before b
9:50 am
wurdygurl
sorry getting punchy
9:50 am
greenbayladi
that's ok
9:51 am
wurdygurl
it is good that you ag*** with me
9:51 am
Fiber Art
I'm not "fiber art" for nothing, Scarlet!
9:51 am
wurdygurl
or I wound get a bit an*** with you
9:51 am
Scarlet
We, too, have a compost bin that beloved built for me when I am pulling weeds, etc., using the broken, crushed eggshells, coffee grounds and veggie and fruit peels... it all goes in!~ LOL, Fiber!!
9:51 am
LeslieAnn
see, it is all part of wurdy's master clue plan
9:51 am
bichon
any ideas for the ar's?
9:52 am
Fiber Art
on our recent trip, I found that many places have dual flush toilets. good idea
9:52 am
Fiber Art
bichon, there's always one's rear end
9:52 am
wurdygurl
ar**, like ar* you crazy then plural
9:52 am
Scarlet
What is that, Fiber?
9:52 am
herinfernallady
Oh also Starbucks have free used grinds to put in composts. I think in AUstralia it is a law to have dual flush dunnys in house or something odd like that
9:52 am
Fiber Art
"Little water" for number one, "big water" for number 2
9:53 am
bichon
fiber, thanks, that seems to be in the grid every day lately
9:53 am
Fiber Art
Along with all sorts of other rude words!
9:53 am
herinfernallady
Some houses have a half brick in the dunny if its a single flush it does the same thing
9:54 am
LeslieAnn
well, with the hundreds of words we've had lately it's easier for words to keep showing up
9:54 am
Scarlet
Excellent idea... never heard of it. We have the mellow yellow in effect now... and a gallon jug of chlorine bleach alongside for me to keep things sparkling.../
9:54 am
Fiber Art
We used to put bricks in the tank, but now have low flush models
9:54 am
Scarlet
Yes, we used the two-brick system for years...
9:54 am
wurdygurl
I don' t mind rude wrods, at least I know those lol
9:54 am
Fiber Art
Hah, wurdy!
9:55 am
wurdygurl
sad but true
9:55 am
Fiber Art
I get a kick out of them. A recent puzzle had both di** and co**
9:55 am
herinfernallady
We have our minds in the gutter kiddies
9:55 am
wurdygurl
loved that one. They were my first words
9:55 am
wurdygurl
I was so proud
9:56 am
Fiber Art
Is "gutter" in the puzzle??
9:56 am
wurdygurl
sorry herin!
9:56 am
Fiber Art
and rightly so
9:56 am
Scarlet
Dagnabit... I have to go back to the housework... have a wonderful day, Babblers and to all, a good grid! Take care, be peaceful and love thy neighbor... wurdy... not you...you're too rambunctious... LOL

TO 'ecky thump' An exclamation of surprise or shock. Often used to mock the Northern dialects of Lancashire and Yorkshire.

5:38 pm
72 Temple Owl
ty frances, some people were betting jack white made it up....is it ecky like "heck"? yes ty doren
5:38 pm
Niamh
this is what I found: Ecky-Thump (pronounced ehk-ee thoooomp) is an ancient and traditional martial art originating from Lancaster, Lancashire in Northern England. Similar but superior to Kung Fu in many respects, it utilizes long, fierce-looking Black Puddings in place of more inferior Eastern weaponry. Practitioners of the martial art are easily distinguished through their ritualistic flat caps and accompanying whippets.
5:38 pm

The ecky thump business is a bit of a joke, in that it's an expression but it was made into a comedy routine by 'The Goodies' in the late 1970's.

do you work on movies for a job, monkey, or just something you did on the side?
6:55 pm
Jacula
hursh - I know what you mean about listening to the vows. After my hubby left me I couldn't go to a wedding for ages for fear of loudly saying, 'HA!' (in a bitter sort of way). I guess the boot on the other foot feels just as bad...
6:55 pm
stidmama
I usually get an aura, too. This one had no warning. Hit me hard and fast and I lay down for two hours.
6:55 pm
LeslieAnn
ah thanks jellen
6:56 pm
sprite
hursh, not that I know you very well of course, but th5 are several kinds of cheating and being untrue to your vows. You cannot have been happy with your husband if you have decided to cheat on him. The5 must have been pain and emptiness in your relation before... and your husband was responsible for that as well.
6:56 pm
featherbee
he's saying choo choo, playing with his tub thomas i think. other random noises too. oh, yesterday, for the better part of the day, he was "george" and i was the man in the yellow hat!

hurshy -- I "played the field" for a long time before I found the right man. Occasionally there is a twinge of guilt... but the truth is, w
