3:59 am

P.J.

your right cat!

4:00 am

sprite

I really want to stress that each word you find is great. I didn't find half of the words on my first grid. This is about fun and not about finding all words or such. Don't feel bad if it is hard for you, because that is normal. It can be a hard game.

4:01 am

catep

i have 158 words

4:01 am

sprite

that is terrific, catep

4:01 am

Hipnishi

4:04 am

Angelsong

hi, all. monster grid today. I am feeling much less blue today. got some good rest last night, and spoke with my daughter before I went to bed. She is handling things pretty well so far, all things considered.

4:05 am

P.J.

hi Angel-what happend?

4:09 am

Angelsong

my daughter called saturday, asking if we could babysit until Sunday. She is ill with flu and needed some rest...so we said yes to babysitting both of the children, 1 year and 3 years old. Then, she said her husband was using methamphetamine again, and she had to ask him to leave until he gets clean. She doesn't want him around herself or the children when he is using. He came home y'day, and she had to call the police. He did leave, and she picked up the kids yesterday afternoon. Dylan, age 3, thinks his dad hates him.

4:10 am

herinfernallady

OH ANgel im so sad for you. Dylan needs to know that he is loved and that daddy does love him but he has a grown up problem that needs to be fixed. HUGS so many hugs my dear

4:12 am

P.J.

I am so sorry Angel,your daughter did the right thing by making him leave! I feel bad for the little ones they don't understand what is going onLOL.

4:13 am

Hipnishi

Not sure of your religious standing- but my prayers go out to your family. Best of luck on his recovery and comforting the children who dont know any better.

4:13 am

Angelsong

She said her husband talked to Dylan last night and told him he does not hate him, and that he loves Dylan very much...then he proceeded to grill Dylan about who was in the house.

herinfernallady

4:18 am

Angelsong

4:18 am

P.J.

4:22 am

herinfernallady

Does anyone have a clue for the DR please

4:22 am

herinfernallady

Angel he can't go into rehab can he?

4:22 am

Angelsong

my daughter is amazing. I'm not saying she is perfect, but she has come a very long way. she has history of drug use as well, and was incarcerated when Dylan was born....but she is clean now, is employed, and is doing a great job of parenting.

4:23 am

Angelsong

he could, but I don't know if he would consent, unless he is arrested.

4:23 am

herinfernallady

That is great Angel. Good on her. She doesn't need his sht holding her back

Haz1558

Kind of both, Lori. I'm not as good at avoiding the housework..... It's a great grid, Uniquity will storm through it.

redturtlehead

5:34 am

dcseain

5:35 am

redturtlehead

5:35 am

pinkhatlil

it disrupts my sleep pattern, i find myself waking up around 7am ish GMT

5:35 am

dcseain

6:05 am

pinkhatlil

6:06 am

dcseain

and hit's hard to get out of my mustache; my body temp is not high enough for the chest application to work

6:06 am

pinkhatlil

7:31 am

nDanLia

it's washington & lincoln combined ata

7:31 am

lori ann

atalante...I for one do not. However we have had awesome past presidents.

7:31 am

Jandy

You are a gem and I have very few to go. Enjoy your tea and warm your tootsies!!!

7:31 am

dcseain

ata, originally we got Lincoln's bday on the 12th and Washington's on the 22nd; in the 80s they combined them to the 3rd monday in Feb as Presidents' Day

7:31 am

montreal13

ty dan for all those clues

7:31 am

Atalante

*giggles* of which he will soon be one. eeep! then he *will* be "celebrated"

7:32 am

Atalante

oh ok. Lincoln and Washington are worth celebrating! I just had a wonderful vision of hordes celebrating the wonder that is Busg

7:32 am

Atalante

*Bush

7:32 am

dcseain

many of us here can hardly wait until 20 January 2009.

7:32 am

Scrabbler

356 to go, but I see so many words I wish I could type faster.

7:34 am

evanonut

we will celebrate bush as much as say, johnson and nixon?

7:35 am

dcseain

time shall tell, nutty

7:35 am

montreal13

Johnson wasn't thta bad - he got the civil rights done...

7:35 am

Scrabbler

Some chapters of American history books need to be shorter than others.

7:35 am

montreal13

lol scrabs, so true...

7:35 am

evanonut

i give you that one, point to monty

7:35 am

dcseain

very true, that, Luc

7:36 am

evanonut

same can be said for all countries scrabs

7:36 am

evanonut

its just that our world social history is shorter to begin with

7:36 am

dcseain

a third to a half of the history books i grew up with addressed the Civil War, or 'The War of Northern Aggression', as it was called when i was younger.

7:36 am

Haz1558

Good morning/afternoon all.

7:37 am

evanonut

nice! war of northern aggression, did you live in the south dc?

7:37 am

montreal13

hey ((Hazel)) !

7:37 am

Scrabbler

Hi Hazel

7:37 am

dcseain

hello, haz

7:37 am

Atalante

hi haz and the spanglette!

7:37 am

carleekat

oh..i recognize that face...good morning spangle

7:37 am

lori ann

Hi..Haz

7:37 am

Haz1558

Hello there - nice big grid today!

7:37 am

dcseain

i grew up in Northern VA, just outside of DC, in what, back then, was a Union-sympathizing area. :)

7:37 am

montreal13

my question exactly nutty !

7:38 am

sadie52

hello haz

7:38 am

Haz1558

Yes, Spangle is in fine form, thanks.

7:38 am

evanonut

isn't that something

7:38 am

montreal13

ahhh that explains it DC...

7:38 am

dcseain

'it', luc?

7:38 am

montreal13

"Norther agression" war DC

7:39 am

montreal13

Northern* even

7:39 am

dcseain

ah, up North, they called it 'The War of Southern Rebellion"

7:39 am

evanonut

specially considering those silly southerners where the ones trying to leave....

7:39 am

dcseain

so, tit for tat, happily, by the late 70s, 'civil war' was the term settled on.

7:40 am

montreal13

'xactly DC... that is the way we canadian were taught...

7:40 am

dcseain

indeed, nutty

7:40 am

Atalante

and over here we say "they had a war? silly americans"

7:40 am

evanonut

we ARE silly

7:40 am

Scrabbler

LOL, Ata!

7:41 am

Uniquity

Unless of course you are a young Canadian such as myself, wherein you simply werent taught about it!

7:41 am

montreal13

lol Uni... and hi !

7:41 am

evanonut

history is all just a spin factor anyway

7:41 am

Atalante

it never hit our history lessons either

7:41 am

dcseain

where i grew up, we were taught in the books to be bitter about the 'illegal seizure' of the western third of the state on 1 march 1863. The teachers pointed out that the constitution was suspended, and VA was in rebellion, so what was there to complain about. LOL

7:41 am

Scrabbler

Hi Uni

7:41 am

carleekat

true enough uni...we learned about catier..champlain and lewis an dclark...but... the civil war etc...

7:42 am

nDanLia

yet we got the 100 yrs war & war of the roses

7:42 am

Haz1558

You mean the Civil War, Atalante? We certainly got the War of Independence taught to us.

7:42 am

carleekat

cartier*

7:42 am

Uniquity

I only ever learned about the world wars, really. Hey everyone! I am off shortly, but I came up for air as I have made it over half

7:42 am

sadie52

hiya Uniquity

7:42 am

Atalante

neither. no american history at all. at least i don't remember any!

7:42 am

evanonut

i took american history and skipped european, looking back, i should have taken european instead, far more interesting

7:42 am

carleekat

its a marathon..but at least is not a twisty marathone

7:42 am

Scrabbler

I took Canadian History as an elective in my last yr of HS. Great teacher too.

7:43 am

Haz1558

Hello Uniquity!

7:43 am

dcseain

it was odd when i lived in Boston. When they say 'The War' they mean the War for Independence. Down here, it's The Civil War.

7:43 am

Atalante

we had years of russian tyrannical despots instead

7:43 am

dcseain

in HS, we skipped Rome and Greece so we could cover up through Vietnam.

7:43 am

Uniquity

I took can. history as opposed to geography, then global history in high school.

7:43 am

Haz1558

So had the Russians.

7:43 am

Scrabbler

Interesting, Seain--2 different perspectives.

7:44 am

montreal13

our history lessons covered everything ... but stopped mysteriously at the 2nd world war...

7:44 am

dcseain

it's normal for history classes to run about a generation behind.

7:44 am

Haz1558

I began to feel old when my daughters were studying events in history that I remember happening.

7:45 am

dcseain

yes, scrabbler, especially interesting as Mass and Maine both lost half there men in the civil war.

7:45 am

montreal13

true DC - and lol hazel

7:45 am

carleekat

i'm starting to go blind from this grid...

7:45 am

evanonut

so, when i see 9/11 in a history book i'll feel old?

7:45 am

Atalante

I'm trying to remember what topics we had in history classes now. WW1. The Tudors (over and over again). Wolsey. He popped up every year. Russian despots. The Middle Ages. Byzantine Empire. hmm.

7:45 am

Haz1558

I don't think you'll ever feel old, evanonut.

7:45 am

evanonut

i find the byzantine interesting

7:45 am

Scrabbler

Yes, Nut, we will say, "I remember, it was a Tuesday morning, and I was_____..........."

7:46 am

evanonut

i remember that empire like it was yesterday

7:46 am

dcseain

i enjoyed my semester on ancient india, and my semester on the ancient songhai.

7:46 am

evanonut

...and i was working at the bank

7:46 am

LadyNatts

oooh... you got to learn ancient India, dc??

7:47 am

Scrabbler

Nut, maybe you had a former life in the Byzantine age. I feel particularly drawn to the Medieval Age--castles, knights, etc.

7:47 am

Atalante

oh and feudal systems in England. every year, again

7:47 am

evanonut

i bet i did

7:47 am

dcseain

yes, Lady, we had a year we got to choos between india, songhai, aztecs, and maya. studying spanish, i'd had my fill of the latter, so i chose the former.

7:47 am

montreal13

yes scrabs and dragons, fair ladies...etc

7:48 am

Haz1558

Surely your origins were piratical, evanonut?

7:48 am

LadyNatts

that's great

7:48 am

lori ann

I

7:48 am

evanonut

wouldn't they be like the original pirates, you know, before pirates took to the sea

7:48 am

Scrabbler

I have a toy castle (kids' toy) with horses, knights, a dragon, displayed on a shelf down here.

7:49 am

Haz1558

Landlubber pirates?

7:49 am

angelinaxox

hi all

7:49 am

dcseain

indeed haz, they sail the river valleys here in the East.

7:49 am

featherbee

morning!

7:49 am

montreal13

hi angelina - lol hazel

7:49 am

Scrabbler

Hi Angelina

7:49 am

dcseain

morning, angelina

7:49 am

featherbee

scrabs, nick has his 6 month appt today. :)

7:49 am

Scrabbler

I saw a baby named Angelina on Saturday when I worked.

7:49 am

montreal13

hi feather

7:49 am

Scrabbler

Hi Featherbee--shots! Poor Nicky.

7:50 am

featherbee

oh right! :( forgot about that little part of it.

7:50 am

angelinaxox

hi mont, dc and scrabs

7:50 am

dcseain

oh ,the PAs are the PIAs today, i see

7:50 am

Atalante

do landpirates use land yachts?

7:51 am

dcseain

land yachts are rather fun to drive

7:51 am

Scrabbler

Big decision, Featherbee: now that he is 6 mo old, do yuo want him to get his first flu shot. (Second would be due in 30 days.) Seain would vote YES!

7:51 am

Vicuna

Landpirates bury their treasure in ponds.

7:51 am

lori ann

well...fellow babblers, it's off to work for me. Good luck and have fun.

7:51 am

Vicuna

Welcome home, Ata, and hello, all.

7:51 am

angelinaxox

bye lori, hagd

7:51 am

angelinaxox

hi vicuna

7:51 am

Scrabbler

Bye Lori Ann, our newest member and addict!

7:51 am

montreal13

for land yachts, u just need more wind is all...

7:51 am

Haz1558

Hello Vicuna!

7:51 am

dcseain

ciao, lori, have a great day!

7:51 am

Scrabbler

hi vicuna

7:51 am

Atalante

hi vi!

7:52 am

montreal13

later lori ann

7:52 am

dcseain

though scrabbs, i did get one of the strains not in the shot this year.

7:52 am

dcseain

though i do think the shot is a good idea

7:52 am

montreal13

hi Vi !

7:52 am

Haz1558

But would landpirates be able to board other land yachts?

7:52 am

dcseain

morning, vicuna!

7:52 am

Scrabbler

true, Seain--experts guessed wrong, or, more true is that the viruses mutated and tricked all of us. Damn little pathogens!

7:52 am

montreal13

depends on the wind factor hazel...

7:52 am

featherbee

aaaaaaaugh, daniel's hammering.

7:52 am

dcseain

knowing what i've seen on teh highways here, i'd say so, haz

7:53 am

Haz1558

You'd have to get your timing right. A bit like the opposite of getting off a moving bus.

7:53 am

featherbee

seeing exactly HOW much noise he can make before mommy and nick go crazy

7:53 am

Vicuna

They'd shout, "Avast, ye sea-swizzlers!"

7:53 am

Scrabbler

Ignore him, Featherbee.

7:53 am

Vicuna

"Swab the mudflaps, me hearties!"

7:54 am

featherbee

i was, till he started opening and slamming the freezer door shut! we stopped that, back to cacophony

7:54 am

Scrabbler

He certainly has been pushing his limits recently, Feather.

7:54 am

Vicuna

Apprentice the lad to a carpenter and be done with him!

7:55 am

evanonut

back, got distracted...heya herbee

7:55 am

Atalante

children have limits?

7:55 am

dcseain

if we could enroll my elder nephew in a school that taught auto mechanics or such, we'd do it in a minute. It'd engage him, and get him to see the value of reading and math.

7:56 am

Scrabbler

We pretend that they do, Ata.

7:56 am

featherbee

no kidding! actually, this was more in the line of "i'm making music mommy!" than "let's see if i can p*** mommy off" he stopped on his own, wanted some frozen peaches.

7:56 am

Atalante

could he volunteer at such a place for a few hours each week, dc?

7:56 am

dcseain

at almost 9? Likely not

7:57 am

dcseain

the family friends that had such business don't any longer.

7:57 am

Atalante

ahhhhh LOL

7:57 am

phandmd

oh my what a large grid we have

7:57 am

Vicuna

It's a shame that (especially in the US) apprenticeships are not really an option any more for those so inclined.

7:57 am

Haz1558

Stick a false be5 on him and put him in platform shoes.

7:57 am

angelinaxox

hi phand

7:57 am

evanonut

no vic, that's what technical school is for

7:57 am

Atalante

they are coming back in fashion over here

7:58 am

Scrabbler

TY for that be5-6 clue!!

7:58 am

montreal13

hi there phan

7:58 am

phandmd

good morning Angel

7:58 am

Haz1558

Which, platform shoes, false be6 or apprenticeships?

7:58 am

phandmd

hello, hello

7:58 am

Atalante

all of them!

7:58 am

Scrabbler

Hi phandmd

7:58 am

Vicuna

Nothing says "hip" like a false beard.

7:59 am

Haz1558

So, a false-be5ed platform shoed apprentice is the way forward?

7:59 am

Vicuna

Aaargh, I'm an idiot!

7:59 am

Atalante

most definitely

7:59 am

Vicuna

And I'm not even doing the stupid grid today!

7:59 am

nDanLia

don't forget the be6 on top ... rofl

7:59 am

Haz1558

Poor Vicuna - to the PB!

7:59 am

Scrabbler

Off to the penalty box, Vicuna. Enjoy the treats!

8:00 am

Vicuna

Come to think of it, if I'm not doing the grid I could be writing a million grid words an every comment and not even know it.

8:00 am

montreal13

"hands over tea and croissants to Vi in the PB"

8:00 am

dcseain

there are still some chocolate cordials in there -all flavoured as mixed drinks, have a mojito!

8:00 am

Atalante

mmmm tea

8:00 am

Scrabbler

Yes, that happens.

8:00 am

Haz1558

Yes, you could be st5ing words all over the place and you wouldn't know. The chag log would be be8.

8:01 am

Atalante

oh hurray. I have milk now. Of course, having been away for a week, our milk here was more like cheese. Do husbands ever buy milk?

8:01 am

Vicuna

Oh, stop teasing, Haz! It's cruel!

8:01 am

carleekat

oooh..i just came back int time for that vic..thanks..didn't have that one

8:01 am

Haz1558

Only if they have been instructed so to do, Atalante. You weren't expecting him to take initiative?

8:01 am

Scrabbler

Where were you, Ata?

8:01 am

montreal13

YES WE DO Ata !!!

8:02 am

Haz1558

Am I drawing you into the grid, Vicuna. It's SO lovely.

8:02 am

Vicuna

It's montreal the Wonder-Husband!

8:02 am

Atalante

will you marry me then please, Luc? I like being able to drink tea after a long journey home!

8:02 am

Atalante

looking after sister, scrabs

8:02 am

montreal13

AND NO instructions needed !! - believe it or not !!

8:02 am

Haz1558

Too late, Atalante, he's already taken, I think.

8:03 am

montreal13

would love to Ata...but i'm already spoken for...

8:03 am

Vicuna

And so are you, for that matter, Ata.

8:03 am

Scrabbler

I must get ready for tennis now. Then I work 1-8. With winter vacation for the kids and President's Day and some parents not working, it is unpredictable how the office will be--could be quiet, could be crazy. Sometimes parents wants to come in when it is most convenient for them.

8:03 am

Haz1558

Although, he may fall into the category of the sort of man Heather Mills McCartney is looking to marry next.

8:03 am

Atalante

if there's one that understands the "needing to buy milk" concept, there must be another out there!

8:03 am

Scrabbler

Yes, your ill sister--did you get my e-mail, Ata?

8:03 am

montreal13

have a great day scrabs - enjoy !

8:03 am

Haz1558

Do you not have doorstep deliveries of milk, Atalante?

8:04 am

Atalante

yes, TY! we've emailed her main dr about it, waiting for a reply :)

8:04 am

carleekat

ok..i only have a-e and the dreaded re's to go

8:04 am

Atalante

I wish, Haz *sigh*

8:04 am

Scrabbler

GO GO, carlee!!!

8:04 am

Haz1558

*smug* we have our own milkman.

8:04 am

Scrabbler

Bye all!

8:04 am

LadyNatts

oh! thank you for reminding me scrab and ata... I have to google "spleen kit" for my brother

8:05 am

carleekat

milkmen went the way of .. of.. of... they don't exist here anymore

8:05 am

Haz1558

Bye Scrabbler - have a good day.

8:05 am

Atalante

LUCKY lucky lucky lucky you

8:05 am

dcseain

ciao, scrabbs

8:05 am

montreal13

milkmen have disappeared from view decades ago around these par**...

8:05 am

Atalante

some of the villages have round here, but we don't

8:05 am

Haz1558

I know.

8:05 am

dcseain

last place i know that still has milkmen, or did, was Cleveland, OH, thanks to Dairymens, a co-op of convenience stores. don't know if they still deliver or not

8:06 am

Haz1558

Some old-fashioned things are worth preserving. Platform shoes, for example.

8:06 am

montreal13

i remeber milkmen with horse-pulled wagons...

8:06 am

dcseain

i was fiscinated by the dairy deliviries when visiting my grandparents. :)

8:06 am

evanonut

new castle, pa has milkemen

8:06 am

Vicuna

They have milk delivery around here (Boston suburbs) for those as wish to pay for it.

8:07 am

Haz1558

There used to be horse-drawn milk delivery when I was a student in Edinburgh, not sure if it's still the case. Milk delivery still going strong here.

8:07 am

dcseain

north shore, vi?

8:07 am

Vicuna

No, western suburbs, Needham.

8:07 am

dcseain

ah, okay, that makes sense.

8:08 am

LadyNatts

well I made it better than halfway. as today's a holiday, I think I'll go back to bed.

8:08 am

Vicuna

Most of the supermarkets also offer delivery of all groceries, including dairy products.

8:08 am

dcseain

finally vanquised the Ps!

8:08 am

dcseain

true, the grocery stores do.

8:08 am

montreal13

sleep tight Lady N

8:08 am

dcseain

though not with the clockwork precision of the milkman.

8:08 am

Atalante

we have supermarket deliveries here. I looove online grocery shopping

8:09 am

LadyNatts

have a great day, everyone!

8:09 am

carleekat

ok..HOw can this be...a-d to go ( and re's of course..) and OVER 100 words to go?!?!?!?!?!

8:09 am

carleekat

let me guess... there 105 re's

8:09 am

angelinaxox

bye lady, tc

8:09 am

Atalante

how can parsnip still be a phantom? I've stared at it for hours and still see it

8:10 am

dcseain

no the REs aren't bad today, it's the PAs

8:10 am

dcseain

hasta, lady!

8:10 am

Vicuna

Parsnip was the first first word I saw... except of course I didn't.

8:10 am

Atalante

8:10 am

carleekat

8:12 am

Krista

hi peeps...big ol' grid today

8:12 am

angelinaxox

hi krista

8:12 am

montreal13

hey krista !

8:12 am

Haz1558

Exactly, Vicuna. You couldn't be expected to do craft things with them or entertain them or anything.

8:13 am

Krista

How is it? Seems easy so far, with my 13 words. :)

8:13 am

Haz1558

They need to learn independent play techniques, don't they?

8:13 am

Vicuna

*wonders what on earth Haz is talking about* "Entertain them?????"

8:13 am

Haz1558

Hello Krista - it's a lovely grid.

8:13 am

Krista

Cartoon Network!!

8:17 am

Atalante

8:18 am

dcseain

apparently the cough lingers for weeks.

dcseain

8:20 am

Krista

I've heard the same from sickies around here.

8:20 am

montreal13

definitely DC !

8:21 am

Krista

Is that the one about the aftermath of nuclear war, Montreal?

8:21 am

dcseain

who wrote it, luc?

8:21 am

Krista

something about a father and son...

8:21 am

montreal13

"The road" is a "love story" between a father/son set in a post-apocalyptic country (unnamed - but we suspect USA)

8:22 am

montreal13

Cormac McCarthy, same as No country for old men...

8:22 am

montreal13

yes krista...

8:22 am

dcseain

Jayde287

8:35 am

Haz1558

And there's no serenade either, Vicuna.

8:35 am

Atalante

8:35 am

Krista

Hi Nan!

8:35 am

dcseain

dart got 300 on his first pass

8:35 am

Vicuna

*sings mournfully* Is there no serenade for meeeeee?

8:35 am

Haz1558

If they do, Jayde, they keep quiet about it for fear of vengeance squads.

8:36 am

Krista

Glad to hear it.

8:36 am

Jayde287

Haha!

8:36 am

Haz1558

Oh no. Have you started to sing again, Vicuna?

8:36 am

Vicuna

Apparently so, Haz.

8:36 am

nancethefan

did u say hi 2 me krista or another nan?

8:36 am

Haz1558

Well, try to keep it down to a dull roar.

8:37 am

Vicuna

Mournful is always a dull roar, silly Haz.

8:37 am

FMitch

Whats wrong with Vi's singing?

8:37 am

Vicuna

Now when I start singing triumphantly, that will not be dull.

8:37 am

Krista

I was saying that to Cybernan..thought you were here when I came on..but hi anyway Nancethefan!

8:37 am

Haz1558

No, mournful involves dogs howling. That's never dull.

8:38 am

Vicuna

Absolutely nothing, FM. But Haz has this terrible tin ear and can't handle beautiful music.

8:38 am

nancethefan

that's ok - hey back krista

8:38 am

Atalante

nor quiet

8:38 am

Krista

off to wake the kids..they are sleeping late...I must be crazy to give up this solitude....

8:38 am

Haz1558

(FMitch, I'll not talk about Vi's singing, for fear of offending her. Best not to antagonise her)

8:38 am

FMitch

Sorry, what? hang in a sec let me take my earplugs out)

8:38 am

nancethefan

lol - bye krista or r u coming back?

8:38 am

8:39 am

nancethefan

8:39 am

Krista

I'll be off for a while..breakfast, etc...always off and on throughout the day when I'm home. See you later, I

8:39 am

Haz1558

Sing it loud - see that's the part we're trying to wean Vicuna away from.

8:39 am

FMitch

"make it simple to last the whole night looooooong"

8:39 am

Krista

I'm sure (hit enter too soon)

8:40 am

nancethefan

ok - b sweet & have a good 1

8:40 am

Haz1558

'Don't worry if it's not good enough for anyone else to hear' - again, Vicuna needs to take this with a pinch of salt.

8:40 am

FMitch

Bye Krista

8:40 am

Vicuna

UR SO MEAN HAZ, U HATE ME!

8:40 am

Krista

8:40 am

Didn't you know that I was mean?

8:41 am

Vicuna

U PEplE R *&$##. I HATE U!

8:42 am

nancethefan

ut o - this sounds like it's getting violent

8:42 am

dcseain

dear me, vicuna, do get a grip!

8:42 am

nancethefan

lol

8:42 am

Vicuna

(I'm so bad at this. It's harder than it looks to be a troll.)

8:42 am

Atalante

H8 u mean!

8:42 am

phandmd

Hey Krista, I have caught the bug that my kids have had

8:42 am

FMitch

Sings off at a tangent ... "You're so Vain..."

8:42 am

Haz1558

'I bet you think this song is about you'

8:43 am

Vicuna

Atalante is a much better troll than I. Is that a complement?

8:43 am

FMitch

Takes years of training Vi to be a troll impersonator.

8:43 am

Haz1558

'Don't you? Don't you? Don't you'

8:43 am

nancethefan

lol - i was going to type the same thing

8:43 am

Haz1558

Dear me, has the record stuck?

8:43 am

Atalante

*smug*

8:43 am

FMitch

smug backwards is gums

8:44 am

Vicuna

Well, how can I ever train and learn when every time I try to be obnoxious you people squelch my dreams?

8:44 am

Haz1558

So it is. So if you back out of a dentist without needing treatment could you be said to be smug gums?

8:44 am

FMitch

Vi sometimes its best to leave it to the experts, I can do you a class in stomping if you like?

8:44 am

FMitch

LOL Haz

8:45 am

Haz1558

Is it rhythmic stomping in Greek tunics?

8:45 am

Atalante

toga tango

8:45 am

Vicuna

Or wait... perhaps... being an inexpert troll will annoy you smuggies even WORSE! Muuhaha haha!

8:45 am

FMitch

*wishes that particular snippet would waft off into the mists of time*

8:46 am

dcseain

so when they tell you the points of the word on the licketysplit page, is that before or after the multiplier for the number of letters in the word?

Morning, Seain, Pink, Owl, Movieman, Carlee, Hurshy (sick?? sorry!) Fmitch, Sadie, Flosey, all.

9:35 am

april if the number says 6/24, that means the total count of the word is tripled, so divide by 3 and you know what to look for - a word totalling 8

10:11 am

Haz1558

Hello again, Vicuna

10:11 am

Vicuna

Hello, jbp incognito!

10:11 am

bwthemoose

with 147 words, I'm not starting over as me. ;-)

10:11 am

Atalante

does your husband like mooses?

10:12 am

bwthemoose

so it's a big one today

10:12 am

bwthemoose

he just likes bullwinkle and rocky

10:12 am

Haz1558

I'm curious about the name as well.

10:12 am

dcseain

bw, we have a Natasha who plays, too

10:12 am

Haz1558

But if you enter the words as him, he gets the points and the glory while you've done the hard work!

10:13 am

bwthemoose

ah yes.

10:13 am

OrangeCat

hello everyone

10:13 am

Vicuna

My children have turned their talents to counterfeiting, so I have some time to look for words for a bit. =)

10:13 am

bwthemoose

my fave from the series was dudley doo right

10:13 am

Atalante

counterfeiting? good for them

10:13 am

Haz1558

Excellent, Vicuna. Do the bank notes look real?

10:13 am

dcseain

hi, orange

10:13 am

bwthemoose

yeah, i don't know how much glory I'll be giving him in this grid...

10:13 am

bwthemoose

wow, it's great that your kids are learining a trade. ;-)

10:14 am

72 Temple Owl

hi haz!

10:14 am

Vicuna

Well, I suppose more accurately it's design. They are not attempting to copy the old notes. They prefer to come up with new and imporved money.

10:14 am

Vicuna

*improved

10:14 am

Haz1558

You've given him 147 word's worth of glory already.

10:14 am

Haz1558

Hello TO!

10:14 am

dcseain

i'm sure they notes will look great if they're counterfeiting US currency

10:14 am

bwthemoose

it's improved if it's in my account!!

10:14 am

Atalante

encourage the counterfeiting. good source of income

10:14 am

bwthemoose

yeah, we're not that competitive.

10:14 am

hurshy

pi7?

10:15 am

Vicuna

But they are happily declaring, "We're making money!" so it sounded promising.

10:15 am

Haz1558

Yes, start with the banknotes, work your way up to passports.

10:15 am

dcseain

i used to get pi7 on my shirt by sitting in a pi4grove

10:15 am

periwinkle

hurshy the pi7 I have is a compound word

10:16 am

Vicuna

Thanks, seain.

10:17 am

Haz1558

You're welcome!

10:17 am

Vicuna

Oh, I'm so honored - apparently some of the new bills feature me instead of any president or queen!

10:17 am

Haz1558

Well, you're one up on Atalante then. So far as I know, she isn't featured on our currency.

10:17 am

harpjane

10:18 am

Vicuna

*smug!*

10:18 am

bwthemoose

10:18 am

Haz1558

10:18 am

Atalante

10:18 am

Haz1558

ep5 - ep plus what a thespian does on stage.

10:18 am

harpjane

10:19 am

Vicuna

Yes, I'm on a throne (although it does suspiciously resemble an ordinary desk chair.)

10:19 am

bwthemoose

any help with the bottom row i??

10:19 am

Haz1558

You could always declare your oa4 house a republic, Atalante and strike your own coinage.

10:19 am

Haz1558

That bottom row i is useful for putting things in.

10:19 am

Atalante

this is true. with Hobbit on

10:20 am

Haz1558

I think so. Passport to Canterbury, I can see it now.

10:20 am

Haz1558

That bottom row i is also remarkably incapable, in5

10:20 am

periwinkle

down to 150 left, need to take a break, bbs

10:21 am

Vicuna

I feel less smug now. Apparently I'm only on the ten cent piece.

10:21 am

torgone

Yikes ..

10:22 am

bwthemoose

i guess it depends on how high the currency units go, Vic... I mean, if it's like Italian money, then you're in trouble...

10:22 am

Babs1

thks haz, great clue!

10:22 am

billmster

lovelly but cold day in Edinburgh.3 but not 396 words are a bit to many for me but not for my Eileen!

10:22 am

Vicuna

10:22 am

Haz1558

But the Italians have done away with the lira and are boringly euro now.

10:23 am

bwthemoose

ok, then the mexican peso

10:23 am

Haz1558

Are there millions and millions of them to the dollar?

10:24 am

ChaoticBliss

Ah. Very nice for snow.

11:13 am

Haz1558

Ta!

11:13 am

Scarlet

Hi, Fiber... I can't look at your icon yet... my Dell gets very cranky when I interrupt the game (especially when so large), so I will see it later.

11:13 am

ChaoticBliss

I'm originally from Pittsburgh, PA, living in northern Virginia now, though.

11:13 am

montreal13

hi dear scarlet - finished my antibiotics last nite - turned out it was a sinus infection with bronchitis on the rebound... but feeling much better now thank you - how about yourself ?

11:13 am

Fiber Art

I know, Scarlet, mine warned me several times, the game was so slow.

11:14 am

Scarlet

Then maybe it isn't just my machine, Fiber... glad yu understand.

11:14 am

rururocks

11:14 am

montreal13

11:14 am

Fiber Art

11:14 am

Scarlet

Good news, then, Lucien... we have been holding our own through some very strange weather, but I hope we continue with our flu-free season... thank you for asking. I hope you perk up soon, dear friend.

11:15 am

flosey

hello there luc, didn't know you were sick, glad your feeling better

11:15 am

Haz1558

ca6/21 - run together what you put your clothes in for holiday with a seabird

11:15 am

11:15 am

montreal13

c's are almost done..yeah!!!!!!

11:16 am

Krista

Thanks, Ata. She was a cutie, and very sweet.

11:17 am

autumn moon

hey luc. did you get the french swear (me5)

11:17 am

Atalante

awwww I bet. she was a beautiful colour

11:17 am

montreal13

bien sur autumn tx, the plural as well (plural never used in french...)

11:18 am

montreal13

for that word that is...

11:18 am

autumn moon

yeah, I know....but it's another word on the grid. Hows the weather over there?

11:19 am

Krista

Her coloring was very interesting, as if there were a line dividing her down the middle..black on one side, cream on the other (paws, belly, even her lips). Then again,that could be common (never had a piggy before).

11:19 am

montreal13

unbelievalble weather here --- + 6 degrees C and cloudy (it rained thru the night !!!) - temp will fall steadily the rest of the week though... and in your neighbourhood ?

11:20 am

Atalante

mine was like that too! black and orange, though, not cream

11:20 am

autumn moon

foggy right now, the sun hasn't burned it off yet. will get up to 9 over the next few days. I guess your snow is all gone?

11:21 am

autumn moon

The problem with big grids.... I never know if I am putting words into chat....

11:21 am

montreal13

no no autumn - there is so much that it won't go away for at least another month...

11:21 am

Aloyisius

Howdy Fellow Babblers!

11:21 am

Krista

I like the black and orange ones...they are all cute, though. Some cuter than others...don't like the white ones with red eyes. :)

11:21 am

angelinaxox

hi aloy

11:21 am

Haz1558

Hello Aloy!

11:22 am

flosey

good morning aloy

11:22 am

FMitch

Hello Aloy!

11:22 am

montreal13

Ahoy Aloy !

11:22 am

Scarlet

Aloy... I am in a blissful state with such a lovely grid! And, Hi to Florida!

11:22 am

Krista

Maybe that coloring this IS common, if yours was like that, too.

11:22 am

Krista

I meant "thing"

11:22 am

Aloyisius

yes, we have been getting nice fat grids lately! (-: Keeps me out of trouble..

11:23 am

autumn moon

**sending my wishful thinking to Luc** I remember those eastern winters. Spent 5 years in Ott. Drove down to Mont a lot.

11:23 am

FMitch

lol

11:23 am

Haz1558

There'd be nothing common about anything of Ata's.

11:23 am

Scarlet

LOL... You and moi both, Aloy!

11:23 am

Atalante

no idea - she was the only guinea pig I ever had, too

11:23 am

Haz1558

You can't be smug about being common.

11:24 am

Aloyisius

One could break a nail doing housework, or get a detergent rash and dry up your skin washing dishes

11:24 am

Atalante

I dunno. JOrdan is

11:24 am

Krista

True, Haz. Probably a huge cooincidence. :)

11:24 am

montreal13

ahh yes - I see you're in BC now - i guess snow never really stays for any length of time over there ?

11:24 am

Scarlet

Or... run out of coffee... or forget to feed the resident feline... or, or, or...

11:24 am

FMitch

Aloy never wash up w/o rubber gloves!

11:25 am

Krista

my Expert hasn't worked for days...need to reboot, but my machine hates rebooting...takes ages to act right..

11:25 am

Haz1558

True about Jordan. She's not so smug now - her new veneers are giving her trouble. 'My agony' by Jordan.

11:25 am

autumn moon

no, luc. our snow leaves as quickly as it comes.

11:25 am

Atalante

oh yes. so much Jordan angst

11:26 am

Aloyisius

you are right, Aloy... hubby even read an article to that effect, and I have a friend who ALWAYS wears rubber gloves, but.. I can't "feel" the squeaky clean of the pots and pans and stuff.. I know, sicko that I am.. (with broken nails and dry skin, lol)

11:26 am

Krista

Who is Jordan, if I may ask?

11:26 am

Atalante

she's horrendous, thats who she is

11:26 am

Aloyisius

I mean, you are right, FMitch.. lol, brain is fuzzy

11:26 am

Scarlet

Now you're talking to yourself, Aloy? LOL

11:26 am

montreal13

that's what i thought autumn - tx for your "wishful thinking" though...

11:26 am

Haz1558

Jordan is a talentless ex-model who has managed to con people into being interested in her.

11:26 am

autumn moon

okay - have to dive into this grid. I only have 19 words and I am sure there are another 377 wanting to be found :)

11:26 am

Krista

Aloy, I am the same. I have cracked knuckles, but cannot stand to wear gloves for dishes.

11:26 am

FMitch

*grin* thought you were going to argue with yourself there :)

11:26 am

Aloyisius

yup, do it constantly Scarlet...

11:27 am

Atalante

she has huge boobs and a stupid husband

11:27 am

Haz1558

A tacky version of pa5 Hilton

11:27 am

montreal13

good luck moon - 153 left here...

11:27 am

Scarlet

That may be a "sign" Aloy... but, harmless.

11:27 am

Krista

Never heard of her..sounds like a good thing.

11:27 am

Haz1558

The chest has been reduced, though. She's not happy with the new shape. Someday she's going to waken up and find her face on the other side of the pillow staring at her.

11:27 am

torgone

Boobs?

11:28 am

Krista

And thanks for the word I would not have thought would be allowed.

11:28 am

Haz1558

Then she really will know what agony is.

11:28 am

Krista

Down, Tor, down!

11:28 am

Haz1558

Hello torgone. Like Pavlov's dog....

11:29 am

Scarlet

I don't know how much tackier a woman can become, Haz, when Ms. Hilton is the standard...

11:29 am

montreal13

lol hazel...

11:29 am

Scarlet

Hi, tor... I love to say that... reminds me of a story...

11:29 am

Haz1558

Jordan is worse. She's orange.

11:29 am

Scarlet

Oy!

11:29 am

Atalante

lmao yes

11:29 am

torgone

I love stories ..

11:30 am

Atalante

and flaunts her handicapped kid around to get more news stories

11:30 am

Scarlet

Good grief, Ata... she sounds like an awful, imitation human being...

11:30 am

Krista

Must look her up on Google.

11:30 am

Arabella7

woo half way! (this is my first time)

11:30 am

Haz1558

She has three children. When we tell you that her daughter is called Princess Tiiiiaaammmiii, you'll get the picture.

11:30 am

Scarlet

Does she just go by Jordan?

11:30 am

Aloyisius

wtg, Arabella... and welcome to Babble!

11:31 am

Atalante

oh you missed an i there, Haz

11:31 am

Haz1558

Take a stiff drink first, Krista.

11:31 am

Scarlet

A newbie!! Welcome to the loony bin, Arabella!!

11:31 am

Haz1558

Jordan, but she wants to be taken seriously as Katie Price. Some chance!

11:31 am

montreal13

YOUPPI arabella ! - well done for a first time - bravo - keep at it !

11:31 am

Atalante

Jordan and her husband Peter Andre

11:31 am

Arabella7

Thanks.

11:32 am

Haz1558

She's the one that THE DRESS was inspired by.

11:32 am

caitlyn

Good afternoon all.......

Atalante

11:33 am

crpw48

11:33 am

torgone

Boy, odd words are st6/30 about in this grid ..

11:33 am

11:34 am

Haz1558

11:34 am

Vicuna

Nope, still no parsnip!

11:34 am

Atalante

Jordan's wedding was entirely baby pink, I seem t oremember

11:34 am

FMitch

Ive been trying to find a space for That Dress in the PB, perhaps I should use it more like a marquee?

11:34 am

Scarlet

LOL... NO, NO, NO Lucien... it is hideous by a warthog's vision...

11:34 am

caitlyn

((((((FMitch))))))) there there ,dont cry

11:34 am

Haz1558

It was, Atalante, you're right.

11:34 am

Krista

She has that "dime-a-dozen" look to me. I have never understood why people who look like every other bimbo become famous.

11:34 am

montreal13

re-lol scarlet...

11:34 am

Atalante

11:35 am

11:35 am

Vicuna

Haz, you really do want me to sing, don't you.

11:35 am

Haz1558

11:35 am

caitlyn

GLAMOUR !! Not my idea of glamour

11:35 am

montreal13

there are more than 1 BE8 ??????

11:36 am

Krista

Wonder if she'll become known "over here." Once again, I don't see how the world has any more room for one more copy of the same....

11:36 am

Vicuna

be8s are built from the word Torgone referenced, meaning scattered about.

11:36 am

Haz1558

be8 - two of them (different verb forms) for what something is distributed willy-nilly.

11:36 am

Haz1558

be8 - the sort of males who are interested in spangly things.

11:37 am

Krista

what is wrong with her kids?

11:37 am

caitlyn

Krista we will send her over...but promise you will keep her please

11:37 am

Krista

(other than she is their mother)

11:37 am

Vicuna

Hmm.... don't have that one yet.

11:37 am

Krista

Lol, no thanks.

11:37 am

Haz1558

Her first child has multiple handicaps - cue lots of magazine articles about her agony. The other two are fine.

11:37 am

Atalante

she has 1 kid who is partially blind and is *huge* from some odd disease. and then Princess Tiaiaiiiaiiiammmiaiiai

11:37 am

montreal13

11:37 am

FMitch

11:38 am

Haz1558

You're forgetting the middle child. Junior.

11:38 am

Krista

ROFL!!

11:38 am

Atalante

cue much angst cos she took drugs and drank through her pregnancy with the handicapped one

11:38 am

Haz1558

She's spelt it wrong and hasn't got the accent.

11:38 am

Scarlet

Googled. Yuck and yuck. Went to HIS website... now I am nauseous... both WAY over the top... Ata and Haz, you have once again done me in!

11:38 am

montreal13

most of you seem to know and AWFUL lot of details on the life of "just another bimbo"...lol

11:38 am

caitlyn

LOL!!

11:38 am

Atalante

bet Peter Andre can't spell it either

11:38 am

cheeky

let's see, i keep things scattered about, my life is willy nilly, and my last girlfriend wore lots of spangly things. and i still havent a clue on this.

11:39 am

Atalante

we have no choice, Luc. she's everywhere

11:39 am

montreal13

be + st 5 cheeky

11:39 am

Haz1558

AND she's written books.

11:39 am

Atalante

you think? or just signed her name to them?

11:40 am

Scarlet

She writes?

11:40 am

Haz1558

Who else could pen such breathless prose?

11:40 am

montreal13

i understand Ata - we have local "bimbo celebrities" that i simply cannot stand... but yes, they are everywhere !

11:40 am

Atalante

you think she knows the alphabet well enough?

11:40 am

caitlyn

But dont forget she has now had a nose job anda boob reduction because she wants to be taken seriously

11:40 am

Haz1558

Oh, yes, Scarlet, she has written her own life story - Volume 35 due out any day. AND her fictional offerings are also available.

11:40 am

Krista

Oh, man..hate to leave this...I needed the laugh..but have to run along...MEOW!

11:40 am

stidmama

Krista

hibye, Stiddy!

11:41 am

Atalante

oh yeah. reduced from G to F

11:41 am

Scarlet

Bimbo eruptions are common in the U.S.A., especially when you have a Commander in Chief who trolls for the questionable females to, er, entertain...

11:41 am

Haz1558

Not only that, caitlyn - new teeth veneers. Soon she will be completely rebuilt and she can auction herself off on e-bay.

11:41 am

Vicuna

Krista! Shame on you lobbing a grid word on your way out, so we can't even send you to the PB!

11:41 am

montreal13

bye krista - take care !

11:41 am

caitlyn

Bye Krista

11:42 am

Scarlet

Laughing so hard now...

11:42 am

montreal13

what ? i thought the buffoon was married !!??

11:42 am

Vicuna

Oh, it's stidmama, everyone. Better stopping dissing the bimbos celebrities! Judging from her entrance, she is one!

11:42 am

stidmama

rofl... so who exactly are you referring to (not me obviously) *looking at very un-modified middle-aged figure*

11:42 am

Scarlet

And your point is, Luc? LOL

11:43 am

Vicuna

(Man, from the way I type, you'll think I'm one, as well!)

11:43 am

montreal13

lolol - and hi stid !

11:43 am

Haz1558

She's married - her wedding was AN EVENT.

11:43 am

stidmama

okay, I promised myself a half hour to get this thing done today (haven't started yet)

11:43 am

Scarlet

Not THIS Commander... the previous, well-known one whose wife is in the middle of a power grab, Luc.

11:43 am

Atalante

So understated, wasn't it?

11:45 am

stidmama

Atalante

11:45 am

Aloyisius

11:45 am

Atalante

Her bridesmaids didn't have Donny Osmond caps though. She missed a trick there.

11:45 am

Vicuna

Atalante

copulation, fornication, etc :D

11:48 am

Atalante

11:48 am

Haz1558

Except Jordan wouldn't know restraint if it jumped up and knocked all her teeth veneers out.

11:48 am

11:49 am

montreal13

Haz you really have a fixation about jordan today,and she speaks so highly of you

12:02 pm

BabbleRabble

be 8 -- wampum males

12:03 pm

Atalante

12:03 pm

the coolest thing about welsh is the way the sounds mutate when the word before it is a certain way. like when cymraeg (Wales) becomes gymraeg...

12:03 pm

Haz1558

be8/60 - males who like sparkly things?

12:03 pm

tr 7 28 is what a new hire at work learning the ropes is
tr7 32 is one who succeeded
ta 7 36 refers to a dwindling end
so 7 32 refers to job of moms & dads who give baths
se7 is the extreme se4
ri 7 refers to people who use listerene
ra7 is a piratey word - means plunders
pi7 is tree stuff you don't want on your hands
pr7 [8] sounds like person who wins things, but ends in dried out [deserty word]
pa 7 can refer to computer programs [for any cs students, often a project] which puts strings together; brit bum word follows p
pa7 is multiple of fr city
pa 7 is basket [pack animal/bicycle] or also framework for old fashioned large skirts
also sounds like what the [18]49ers were [think of how they worked]

You don't have to do anything, except shut off the fireworks when the video window slides open, Ankh... if the fireworks run concurrent with the video, it slows the images.

3:27 pm

carleekat

i liked this one... just moved steadily along....didn't feel like the usual 400 word marathon

3:28 pm

Ankhorite

Sorry, had to answer door again. Manson: yes, fake contacts, called novelty or theatrical. Yes, very smart, also very thoughtful on censorshp and violence issues when speaking (not singing). WANTS to look ugly, has said so.

3:28 pm

Scarlet

I know, kattie... if I weren't having such a hoot with some arguably sane women, I'd be long done, but they have pulled me into the Vortex.

3:31 pm

Ankhorite

Manson irritates me a little with his medical fetish. I have to live the way I do; it grates on me that he volunteers for it because he likes the "grotesque effect" of wearing medical devices on stage.

3:32 pm

carleekat

the name of this book is secret by pseudonymous bosch

3:32 pm

Ankhorite

Well, Mo, I tell you, the first 100 words go quickly! :)

3:32 pm

EspritdJean

go to amazon dot.com and put in the book, it will tell you "people who bought this book also liked . . ."

3:32 pm

LadyNatts

book sellers online often tell you "others who chose this book also chose..."

3:32 pm

Scarlet

LIke Heironomous Bosch?

3:32 pm

Scarlet

Bad spelling, I know.

3:33 pm

Ankhorite

Okay. I'm getting about 1 word every ten minutes. Not acceptable! Wah!

3:33 pm

Vicuna

I'm not familiar with that one. But amazon also has postings of book lists by people, and they can be interesting to browse through.

3:33 pm

herinfernallady

Ankh that was one or two albums and i know of Doms that have clinets with a medical fetish.

3:33 pm

mo

what about the other 290 odd though!!!

3:33 pm

Scarlet

Heronymous... hieroynomous... oh, blast it...

3:33 pm

arwennn

i hear ya ankh

3:33 pm

EspritdJean

I don't know what his medical fetish is all about

3:33 pm

Scarlet

There, there, Ankh...tis better than no words at all... half a loaf, yadda yadda yadda

3:34 pm

herinfernallady

Esprit there is many a fetish out there. Its something that someone gets turned on by that thing: shoes, being a baby, being treated like a dog and on and on

3:34 pm

Ankhorite

Yeah, I know that there are people like that who need it because they're special needs people. And I know that he's catering to that audience, and all that. But it still grates on me, an unhealthy person, that he, a healthy young person, wants to pretend to be unhealthy for the backwards glamor of it. I wouldn't censor him, but it gives me the grumps.

3:35 pm

EspritdJean

I know what a fetish it, I said I didn't know what HIS was

3:35 pm

arwennn

be8/60?

3:35 pm

Ankhorite

Manson's medical thing may or may not be sexual for him, though it sure is for some people. From the mild "playing doctor" or "playing nurse" stuff, up to people who want to be enclosed in casts to have sex, etc.

3:35 pm

periwinkle

42 left, taking another break

3:35 pm

herinfernallady

Esprit sorry its very early for me

3:36 pm

Ankhorite

Jean, Manson likes to oh, wear bandages, pretend to be odd-eyed, wear big metal braces on an arm or leg or neck or whatever.

3:36 pm

periwinkle

interesting chat here though

3:36 pm

EspritdJean

np, so what is his?

3:36 pm

periwinkle

interesting chat here though

3:36 pm

herinfernallady

Ank according to his bio he had a very strange Grandfather and a strict religous upbringing.

3:36 pm

lynxxx

be8.60 compound. Guys who wear costume jewellery

3:36 pm

periwinkle

bbl

3:36 pm

Vicuna

It's just rather sad that he's so desperate for attention. But *shrug* he's certainly smart enough to know that shock value sells albums, and that's what he's all about.

3:37 pm

Ankhorite

MY fetish right now is getting help with the second dr5,12, the 6, 21, and the (oh, this is pitiful) the dr 4,5!

3:37 pm

herinfernallady

Once again that was for a couple of albums Ankh

3:37 pm

lynxxx

dr4.5 uses double vowel

3:37 pm

Ankhorite

Yeah, and INfernal, I don't know if you saw, but I do say he's very smart, very thoughtful, very well-spoken in interviews, esp on topics of censorship and of violence.

3:38 pm

Ankhorite

Lynxxxeee, thankeee

3:38 pm

lynxxx

dr5.12 (may be) odd spelling of past tense of having clothes on

3:38 pm

mo

I will leave you all to it, and have an early night for once. Good luck everyone and good night.

3:38 pm

Ankhorite

herinfernallady

Ankh a lot of his stuff means something to me thats why i picked the album. I didn't do it to create controversy or be a drama llama

3:41 pm

Ankhorite

Oh, Infernal, no, I like his work! I do!

3:41 pm

herinfernallady

EspritdJean

3:41 pm

LadyNatts

3:41 pm

Ankhorite

And I really do like the interviews he's given on censorship; he and I are totallly the same side.

3:42 pm

herinfernallady

The Antichrist Superstar album means a lot to me. I was the ugly fat kid in school, the strange one that know one liked and the first over 18 concert i went to. Yes Ankh i agree

3:42 pm

herinfernallady

Natts this grid eats the words that is all there is too it

3:50 pm

herinfernallady

Yep Scarlet it does. I just notice so i am captian obvious girl.

3:50 pm

LadyNatts

3:50 pm

EspritdJean

no kidding? in what culture?

3:51 pm

Scarlet

Wow... your perspectives are just a tad different than my intentions...h mmmm

3:51 pm

lynxxx

Moonwoof suggested it was catholic I think

3:51 pm

Scarlet

Georgia O'Keeffe is my heroine!

3:51 pm

Ankhorite

Scarlet, Ramsey was a pretty hot guy, don't think he'd mind...

3:51 pm

EspritdJean

I'm Catholic and I never heard of it

3:52 pm

LadyNatts

3:52 pm

Scarlet

Yep, Ankh... he'd be flattered ...

3:52 pm

carleekat

3:52 pm

LadyNatts

phalic symbols follow me everywhere

3:53 pm

Ankhorite

Sure, they were the ones who said the rosary over the dead, get it? During vigils?

3:53 pm

EspritdJean

OK, the definition is right, but it doesn't say what religion or culture. Don't think it's Catholic

3:53 pm

Ankhorite

Jean! Rosary be***!!

3:53 pm

Ankhorite

Thus, be8!

3:53 pm

3:55 pm

Ankhorite

Hi, Alyoisius... whoops, no gender icon for you?

3:59 pm

4:17 pm

if you are using the lickety explorer, that is based on internet explorer. Perhaps you just need to download the latest flash for IE --

Lady, I have had my hair long for many years...until last year...it got tucked inside my jeans, accidentally for many more times than I can remember... I had it cut last March, and it saves my shoulders a lot of work. I loved the versatility of long hair, but shorter is easier to keep.

5:12 pm

Elsh

I can't imagine being attached to a spider, but I can understand too because losing my rats gives me such heartache and many people can't understand loving rats.

5:12 pm

Scarlet

But, lil, Chauncy loved to cuddle and he "purred" when I pet him over his eyes...

5:12 pm

Mom

you don't see priests sticking thermometers in kids bums, do you?? i mean, sometimes they stick things in there, but it's cause they want to, and it's highly frowned upon.

8:14 pm

nDanLia

well, it's not much pulicized, but the married priests who objected to female ordination were able to convert & retain status

8:14 pm

Were able to convert to Catholicism, nDanLia?

8:15 pm

Jacula

hursh - I think your honesty may have ruffled some feathers. Mine aren't ruffled, btw.

8:15 pm

nDanLia

pi 7 stuff from pi4 you don't want on your hands

8:16 pm

nDanLia

yes; a while ago

8:16 pm

hurshy

and while i don't find priestly celibacy necessary or even beneficial, i highly doubt that the simple fact of being celibate can turn a person into a pedophile.

8:16 pm

Jacula

To - if I ask you to calm down, will you?

8:16 pm

72 Temple Owl

if that's honesty, then forget you all!

8:16 pm

Merk

ty, it only took me all day with numerous interruptions. I love lonog grids when I'm home, but not while traveling. See you tomorrow.

8:16 pm

72 Temple Owl

i will fiind another game

8:16 pm

Merk

<poof>

8:16 pm

hurshy

i don't understand. some priests have done some bad things. it doesn't mean the whole catholic faith is wrong....

8:16 pm

evanonut

well, let me honestly ruffle yah'll too...i say they're pedo's to begin with, so they figure, i don't want a woman anyway, i might as well be a priest

8:17 pm

guigrrl

I made the opposite move nDanLia -- I'm an ex-Catholic turned Episcopalian :D

8:17 pm

72 Temple Owl

No i won't . I try very har dto be tolerant, and what do i get, a slap in the face.

8:17 pm

harpjane

ra7?

8:17 pm

72 Temple Owl

then your remark was some warped kind of attempt at humor, hurshy?

8:17 pm

harpjane

actually most clergy abuse occurs between male clergy and female adult church workers

8:18 pm

mirandapan

that's true, Harp.

8:18 pm

hurshy

yes... and one that has been employed by ... you know, comedians on tv and stuff...

8:18 pm

72 Temple Owl

so becasue they are assholes, you want to be one, too?

8:18 pm

nDanLia

& happens in all faiths & mentioning it was not needed in conversation

8:18 pm

Jacula

TO - in all honesty, I can only think of a Catholic relative's brothers, all priests, who have secret 'wives' and secret children all over Ireland. No offence meant, but they're only human.

8:19 pm

Aussieme

please, please, lets calm down.....

8:19 pm

harpjane

and there is not much of a statistical link between celibacy and abusers

8:19 pm

evanonut

i stopped being a catholic when i started thinking, still believe in God, but i don't worship a church, nite peeps

8:19 pm

hurshy

if anything, to me, the bad taste of the joke lies in making light of the kids' suffering, not in any implication about a religion

8:19 pm

harpjane

anyway ra7?

8:19 pm

speedfreak

Can I please have a clue for the st6/18 The first one of the st's thank you

8:19 pm

Jacula

Nut - I'm with you there re the established Church.

8:19 pm

lilliann

don't have that one, sorry harp

8:19 pm

72 Temple Owl

then FORGET YOU HURSHY! i try so hard to be tolerant of you and this is what i get. goodnight all

8:19 pm

8:20 pm

hurshy

i am so confused.

8:20 pm

72 Temple Owl

does that clear things up for you?

8:20 pm

speedfreak

thank you harpjane

8:20 pm

Jacula

Now do you all see why discussing either religion or politics amongst anything other than family or really close personal friends is NOT RECOMMENDED?

8:20 pm

harpjane

thanks

8:20 pm

harpjane

and your welcome

8:20 pm

nDanLia

pi 7 stuff from pi4 you don't want on your hands - sticky stuff

8:21 pm

72 Temple Owl

there was no discussion jacs. just ridicule.

8:21 pm

CDS

ok, 72 person- go away. we r playing and no one needs your attitude

8:21 pm

hurshy

as Christians, don't we all believe that Christ is perfect, and we are not? so... i mean... the fact that people are like that doesn't change anything...

8:21 pm

Jacula

TO - oH HECK. XXX

8:21 pm

rururocks

thank you dan

8:21 pm

72 Temple Owl

forget y ou cds. whoever y ou are.

aknitter

but ty i needed those

8:23 pm

mirandapan

CDS is giving such great clues--too bad I already have them.

8:23 pm

pam

Wow, leaving again, LOL. Byzantine priests are Roman Catholics whose sect permits marriage... and, you are right, jac. Celibacy came to be when the church sought to consolidate property...

8:23 pm

Jacula

TO - please, stop for a moment and take a breath.

8:23 pm

pam

kth--how the heck are you?????

8:23 pm

Aussieme

TO, please stay.... you are my friend...

8:23 pm

hurshy

you can't KEEP the peace if the peace is gone, you gotta bring it back. i didn't mean to offend, TO, and i really don't have any negative perceptions of Catholicism.

8:23 pm

nDanLia

hurshy's comments were out of line & inappropriate

8:23 pm

mirandapan

Sorry, kthdsn--I announced my ordination and one thing led to another...

8:23 pm

kthdsn

I'm good thanks pam, it's my bday today and I'm stressing myself out by babbling lol

8:24 pm

aknitter

may i have a clue for the in 7/48 please

8:24 pm

Aussieme

Happy Birthday Kth

8:24 pm

kthdsn

ordination, is that where you become a priesty-type-person?

8:24 pm

pam

happy day, LOLOL~

8:24 pm

i am sorry, i guess i just watch too much jon stewart and get in the habit of making these jokes...

Happy Birthday, kth.

It is, yes.

Happy Birthday, Kate!!!!

Hi, lbd

I think it's hard to joke in a cyber community where not everyone is well known to each other... hugs to all!

8:25 pm

Jacula

Hi, lbd.

8:25 pm

pam

hi, lbd....

8:25 pm

ah a broom,, my preffered method of transportation according to my children LOL

Hi Jellen, Jac, AUSSIE!

8:25 pm

christy8376

more specific ndan about the broom?

8:25 pm

hurshy

but TO and i are well known to each other and ... i am still confused.

8:26 pm

lbdawger

whatcha need aussie?

8:26 pm

praise2him

hi lil

8:26 pm

Jacula

pam - exactly so. Without seeing body language and having eye contact many misunderstandings occur.

8:26 pm

mirandapan

*kth : my k is sticking

8:26 pm

aknitter

the act of using the broom christy (in the past)

8:26 pm

nDanLia

its motion, pt

8:26 pm

Jacula

hursh - have you ever actually met TO 'in the flesh'?

8:26 pm

Aussieme

hursh and TOto be friends again lbd.... I dont like to see fighting on Babble, its worse than having trolls aboard...

8:27 pm

christy8376

thanks akn

8:27 pm

hurshy

no, but i mean, it's been what, almost 3 years on here

8:27 pm

evanonut

specially since trolls are fun

8:27 pm

hurshy

two and a half maybe

8:27 pm

lbdawger

ahhh, never talk politics or religion in chatrooms, actually rarely talk about either anywhere. it's safer that way

8:27 pm

aknitter

can i ask for some cat advice? i have a newly adopted kitty and need some assistance

8:27 pm

lbdawger

NUTTY!

8:27 pm

nDanLia

and some are just in poor taste and shouldn't be repeated

8:28 pm

Jacula

Aussie - it'll work itself out in the end, these things do. But I'm about to have a fight with nut again about the fun or not fun of trolls...

8:28 pm

Aussieme

Hey Nutty....

8:28 pm

lilliann

arguing is going to occur as we are all different people , from different walks of life and different beliefs

8:28 pm

lbdawger

can't help you there AK, 'lergic to them and know very little about them.

8:28 pm

christy8376

lets be kind to eachother:) and have fun

8:28 pm

Aussieme

Trolls can be kinda fun, if they go away quickly, it gives us something to talk about....

8:28 pm

aknitter

i adopted a siamese, about a year old, he was rescued from one of those kitty breeders. never had much love and spent most of his life in a cage. i can't seem to get him to come out of hiding

8:29 pm

praise2him

knitter what do you need to know?

8:29 pm

Jacula

hursh - You two need to hook up on webcam, I guess.

8:29 pm

Jellen

Just be patient, AK.

8:29 pm

hurshy

i know she did not like me in the beginning but i thought that had changed, i am sorry to find that it has only been toleration. i do not try to be annoying. :( and i haven't got a webcam.

8:29 pm

Aussieme

knitter, try tempting him with some kitty toys, or a ball of wool.....

8:29 pm

Jacula

I'm going to dive back into the grid now as it is very late here in UK.

8:29 pm

praise2him

how long have you had him knitter

8:29 pm

aknitter

when i do see him he is very loving and affectionate. i just worry that he is not eating

8:29 pm

lbdawger

hmm, sounds like you need to just leave the door open and let him come out on his own.

8:30 pm

hurshy

i agree on the cat advice

8:30 pm

aknitter

he has been here only a few days

8:30 pm

evanonut

webcams are cheap, everyone who can should get one, its a great way to verify that who you are talking to is actually who they say they are

8:30 pm

hurshy

is the food where he can get it while feeling safe?

8:30 pm

Aussieme

knitter, he will eat when he is hungry, trust me....

8:30 pm

Jellen

Make sure that the food is in a secure spot, i.e, near his hiding place.

8:30 pm

pam

but where's the fun in that, nut? 8-)

8:30 pm

aknitter

i leave it out but i can't be sure if he is eating it or my other piggy

8:31 pm

Aussieme

put the food near to where he is hiding, and he will see it is safe to come out and eat...

8:31 pm

Jacula

hursh - try to get one. They're quite cheap to buy these days. A cheap webcam may not give the best image, but it will at very least get you properly in touch with others.

8:31 pm

kthdsn

I might just give up on this grid, seems like i'm missing all the fun in the grid and not finding any words anyway

8:31 pm

Jacula

DIVES DOWN... sperlashh!

8:31 pm

Aussieme

ah, I see.....

8:31 pm

lilliann

just keep giving him the odd stroke and tit bit and he will then know that you want him around ak, and will start to want more attention from you and play with him aswell

8:31 pm

pam

i kind of like this grid, kth!

8:31 pm

pablo blanco

fireworks for me - thanks for the help earlier!!!

8:31 pm

christy8376

any clues for wo6,33?

8:31 pm

lbdawger

keep other kitty away from new kitty's hidey hole. new one needs to adjust to new environs

8:31 pm

Aussieme

**shakes soggy self off, from being dive-bombed by Jac**

8:31 pm

aknitter

if i could find his hiding spot! LOL you'd think i live in a mansion, he is a very good hider

8:32 pm

pam

yay, pablo!

8:32 pm

lbdawger

whoooo hoooo PABLO

8:32 pm

kthdsn

I have 140 words left and it's starting to swirl...

8:32 pm

Aussieme

YAy pablo...

8:32 pm

hurshy

i wish TO would not have gone away so quickly...

8:32 pm

Jacula

*hands Aussie a towel and sinks deeper.*

8:32 pm

lilliann

wtg pablo!

8:32 pm

lbdawger

maybe leave it in his cage?

8:32 pm

Jacula

TO will be back.

8:32 pm

Jellen

When I got new kitties, I segregated them from the older ones for a while, so they'd feel secure.

8:33 pm

lilliann

diving in behind you jac

8:33 pm

christy8376

wo6,33? any help?

8:33 pm

kthdsn

what made TO leave, you weren't being mean were you hurshy???

8:33 pm

Jacula

Oy! Watch where you put that torch, Lil! OW!

8:33 pm

aknitter

dawg i got rid of his cat case, no one should live in a cage (felt bad for him) i am such a sap

8:33 pm

hurshy

yes but will she be back mad at me?? i would rather have got it fixed now.

8:33 pm

hurshy

i made a joke without thinking, it was offensive

8:34 pm

lbdawger

take the last letter off the wo5.20 and add the egyptian sun god

8:34 pm

kthdsn

oh dear

8:34 pm

pam

what a word, lbd!

8:34 pm

Jacula

wo6/33 normally has 2 vowels at the beginning. It's an Aboriginal hook for a weapon.

8:35 pm

pam

thanks, jac. That's why it seems familiar...

8:35 pm

Jacula

hursh - she might be. Get her on a messenger service and on webcam and try to work it out.

8:35 pm

lbdawger

AK, i'm sure he'll get used to the surroundings and your other residents. He'll let you know when he's hungry.

8:36 pm

aknitter

i hope so dawg. he had such a terrible start to his life. just want it to be better

8:36 pm

hurshy

i don't know her screenname, do you know how i can find her?

8:36 pm

Jacula

Can I b*gger off now, as we in UK and the Aussies say, and find my last 56 words now?

8:36 pm

lbdawger

as long as your other pet doesn't attack him, i think he'll be okay. are you keeping him as an indoor cat?

8:37 pm

christy8376

still lost on wo6,33.

8:37 pm

hurshy

she's right, i AM a snob. i don't want to be but it just keeps on happening. and i MAY be callow but i thought i had enough other non-horrifying qualities to not be insufferable.

8:37 pm

aknitter

i keep my kitties indoors. i live in a very rural area on a pond. to many things to get in to

8:37 pm

Jacula

Sorry, hursh. I've checked my lists and I don't have her address. Sorry!

8:37 pm

christy8376

maybe i'm thick headed

8:37 pm

lori ann

Hi everyone...I'm going to give this another whirl before heading to bed. I just wonder if I will ever complete one.

8:38 pm

Jacula

hursh - calm yourself! Are you on my msn?

8:38 pm

kthdsn

hursh you have very helpful clueing qualities if nothing else :)

8:38 pm

hurshy

i'm calm, i'm just trying to realistically appraise her statement.

8:38 pm

Jellen

Hurshy, don't be so hard on yourself. Your joke may have been insensitive, but I don't think it warranted to extreme a response.

8:39 pm

evanonut

words said in anger hursh, let them go for a while

8:39 pm

lbdawger

christy, take the first four letters of wo5, add the egyptian sun god's name. ** or a cheer, **h **h **h, kick him in the knee...

8:39 pm

aknitter

what the heck is the first pa 4 please

8:39 pm

hurshy

ironically, the snob part is the most clearly true, and yet it is the part that least accurately characterizes the nature of my mistake in this instance.

8:39 pm

lilliann

ak, i had a cat that was left in a room for 2 weeks at a time and fed once every 2 weeks, when i got her she was a skeleton and the vet had thought he'd have to put her to sleep, she was bitten to death by fleas and had no hair over half her body and was scabby all over, she ended up being one of my most loving cats as i kept giving her attention and food

8:39 pm

Jellen

pa4= an official agreement

8:40 pm

lbdawger

AK, a treaty or agreement

8:40 pm

aknitter

ty lil that is encouraging

8:40 pm

Jacula

hursh - please don't keep beating yourself up. TO overreacted a bit.

8:40 pm

christy8376

thnx ibd

8:40 pm

aknitter

mulling over that clue hmmm

8:41 pm

hurshy

i'm not beating myself up! i know she overreacted a bit, but that doesn't mean i can't ponder what she said.

8:41 pm

lbdawger

ak, toyota makes compa** cars

8:41 pm

aknitter

oh geez, i didn't notice that other p in the upper right

8:41 pm

aknitter

got kitty on the brain i guess

8:41 pm

Jacula

Fair enough, hursh.

8:41 pm

lbdawger

understandably so, AK

8:42 pm

hurshy

i mean if you knew how many snobbish things i refrain from saying when people are being stupid... well, you'd know i was a snob.

8:42 pm

lilliann

it will take some time ak, but your kitty will know soon enough that you care by the way you are with it

8:43 pm

aknitter

just wish he would come out :( i have a space on my lap just waiting

8:43 pm

Jellen

But you refrain from saying them. That negates some of the snobbiness.

8:43 pm

lbdawger

what did you name the kitty, AK?

8:44 pm

aknitter

his name is sammi he is a beautiful blue point siamese. don't know how anyone could be so cruel to such a beautiful creatue

8:44 pm

hurshy

i don't ALWAYS refrain... but in my defense, my parents were constantly complaining about people being stupid during my entire childhood, and it is hard to overcome even though i want to...

8:44 pm

Aussieme

I was just going to ask te same question lbd....

8:44 pm

harpjane

boy these last 162 are killin' me....

8:45 pm

hurshy

it IS a big grid...

8:45 pm

Aussieme

try being back on 323 harp..... its killing me, and I have my sister helping me too....

8:45 pm

Jacula

hursh -you don't sound that different from me, but here in UK it's not the 'bad' thing it is seen as in USA. There is a saying, 'horses for courses' and it's not far wrong re life. And, if that offends anyone here, I'm sorry, but it is the truth.

8:45 pm

lbdawger

lol at your icon, Harp!

8:45 pm

aknitter

my other cat is also siamese but an apple one. he is such a loe. thinks he is a dog. comes when called. plays fetch ...

8:45 pm

Aussieme

but, in my defence, I have only been here about half an hour.....

8:46 pm

lbdawger

go aussie go!

8:46 pm

lilliann

i have another cat now as that one died a few years ago and i've had him a yr and a half and he still doesn't sit on my lap, he will sit next to me and by my feet and lie on the bottom of my bed and loves being stroked but will not sit on any of us ak, so maybe the cat never will, but it will still like strokes from you and know you are there

8:46 pm

Dispatch

greetings all! and YIKES, what a whopper today!

8:46 pm

lbdawger

do they appear to get along, AK?

8:46 pm

Jellen

Hi, Dispatch

8:46 pm

Jacula

It's a really awful thing to say, but 'some are cannon fodder' and others will go on to greateer things.

8:47 pm

Dispatch

hiya!

8:47 pm

lbdawger

hi dispatch. good luck

8:47 pm

vah

Does anyone have a clue for the second N word (middle N, second bottom row) - also any clues for the E next to it? thanks.

8:47 pm

Jacula

And, no, that does NOT mean that I think anyone deserves to die.

8:47 pm

aknitter

the kitties have a tolerance for each other no real battles yet just some hissing. Sammi likes hiis chin and ears rubbed lil

8:48 pm

hurshy

but some people may not be very intelligent, but be extremely kind. and so, it is right to focus on the good in people and not be a snob about things you are good at, because, there are lots of things you aren't.

8:48 pm

lilliann

hi dispatch

8:48 pm

Jacula

That's true, hursh.

8:48 pm

hurshy

you = one = me

8:48 pm

hurshy

it's just so darn hard sometimes!

8:48 pm

Jellen

That's very true, hurshy. There are also many kinds of intelligence I'm only beginning to appreciate.

8:49 pm

lbdawger

vah, if you could be a little more specific with your request. I'm not sure which word to clue you

8:50 pm

lilliann

blue point siamese, they are expensive breeds aren't they ak

8:50 pm

kthdsn

hurshy I don't think it matters what you say or do as long as you are happy with it yourself. There's no point in trying to hurt other people but there's equally no point in trying to please them if it means not being yourself.

8:50 pm

vah

Well, I have one of the two N words - I have the one which is about good ne**.

8:50 pm

pam

jac--

8:50 pm

hurshy

well i don't need to not be myself in order not to make insensitive jokes...

8:51 pm

aknitter

i think so lil, that is why they are raised by those kitty farmers they just breed them for the money

8:51 pm

pam

'splain me the "horses for courses." please. I am dense...

8:51 pm

Jacula

Life is all about looking for the be4 in everyone you meet. Unfortunately, you might sometimes get killed by getting your head kicked in through doing so. $ men, at least, here in Uk have lost their lives through asking noisy teens outside to pipe down. No wonder my partner and both my kids followed me outside (carrying weapons) when I last did that.

8:51 pm

hurshy

i think she means... some horses can race, and some can't, you know, and different people are also not all racers...

8:51 pm

lilliann

that's terrible ak

8:52 pm

hurshy

and if i'm callow, well, i can't help it that i'm only 30.

8:53 pm

Jacula

Horses for courses - means * what is suitable for one person or situation might be unsuitable for another.

8:53 pm

pam

gotcha, jac and hursh...

8:53 pm

lilliann

someone near us did that jac, because there child was sleeping and the teenagers were noisy, next thing he had bricks through every window and the police could do nothing as he had no proof it was them even though he'd seen them running away straight after the fact

8:53 pm

pam

thanks that

8:53 pm

pam

what I thought, but wasn't sure...

8:53 pm

pam

UNBELIEVABLE, how easy it is, it seems, to resort to violence...

8:54 pm

Jacula

Lil - that is very scarey and might be the final denominator to send me off the New Zealand!

8:54 pm

Aussieme

down to 303, go me !!!!

8:54 pm

kthdsn

lilliann that's terrible

8:54 pm

hurshy

i hear new zealand is a very nice place...

8:55 pm

Jellen

Go, aussie!

8:55 pm

aknitter

could not live in new zealand. would not like hanging upside down LOL

8:55 pm

Jacula

Hey, hursh. When I hit 30, I thought I'd finally found the key to Life.

8:56 pm

Aussieme

well, Ak, I am an Aussie in the UK, so I am upside-down !!

8:57 pm

aknitter

must be tire-some having on to the planet and trying not to fall off (groans at own poor attempt at humor)

8:57 pm

lilliann

i live opposite a high school and have bad language, kids jumping into my hedge and they talk about or i should say shout about their sex lives, i've had snowballs with stones thrown at the windows for no reason....if i was still able bodied i'd say something but as i'm not anymore and have a young daughter and husband that works away i keep quiet, but i don't want to

8:57 pm

Jacula

There is, so my 94-year-old Great Grandmother told me, no actual key, well not that she'd found, so far, yet...

9:20 pm

9:23 pm

72 Temple Owl

i began to think twice after the thing the insensitivity shown to annie the other day. and I would surmise there was no one else of my faith here, since no one else seemed to be offended. So i just want to apologize for the disruption of harmony.

9:24 pm

rururocks

i know what you mean TO as babble takes up alot of time that could be spent elsewhere, but personally through this site i've met some really good friends and upset people with my icon but we are all different and have different outlooks on things and have to try and get on with eachother whether we agree or not

9:25 pm

Minveryork

Clued it wrong,but I see you still got it harpjane.LOL

9:25 pm

Jacula

I do hope TO and hursh have made up now.xxx

9:25 pm

72 Temple Owl

no one upset her per se, but something very insensitive was said and the person kept trying to justify it. I had actually thought the person went away from embarrassment but they were actually offended that she would be offended.

9:26 pm

pam

it's hard, TO, I am sure. I try hard to stay away from religion in discussions here and in person. But, I do find myself having to remind people that in this country, there is supposed to be a separation of church and state, and that not all who believe believe in christ. It astounds me that those who are christ-centered often orget the billions who aren't

I dont like to see my babble friends upset. Although I dont know you all personally, I feel we have a good friendship here..... we are all working to the same end, to get through life the best way we know how....

9:27 pm

stidmama

the problem with discussions when you can't see people's faces or hear the tone of voice is you don't know the "backstory" on words. Some people with challenges make jokes about them -- others don't. It's when we start to get defensive that things sort of spiral into making people feel badly...

9:27 pm

Jacula

Ausie we al are, and we fall out at times, but we work it out.

9:27 pm

10:27 pm

MLFAN17

april you will probably improve i have did seeral grids not sure how long i have been here though

10:28 pm

stidmama

yes, the grids (generally speaking) get easier over time -- there are words you start to recognize, and clues you start to remember

10:28 pm

aprilrain

I really love playing the game boggle, and this is similar, except with way more time per grid

10:28 pm

MLFAN17

cara i ony have 1 in one and its a 5/10 so i wouldnt be of much help i dont think but i might need it too

MLFAN17

and thank god for that huh april lol

10:30 pm

MLFAN17

cara?

10:31 pm

aprilrain

haha, yeah, but it's different really. Because here you're going for all of the words and in boggle you look for the best ones in 3 minutes. I can't find many people who will play boggle with me, so it's nice not to be slaughtering people for a change

10:31 pm

10:32 pm

stidmama

start with IN + scots for "one" and build from there
