Haz1558

So, Lori(Canada), what is your official rating of this grid?

3:33 am

LoriP

Pretty fun, but with a 30% chance of poopiness later in the day.

3:34 am

Haz1558

Keeping your options op4, I see.

3:34 am

LoriP

More than pleased that there are no re's. :-)

3:35 am

LoriP

Missing 2 b's which I'm sure are dumb, and trying to get rid of the vowels.

3:35 am

Haz1558

Yes, although with the presence of so many s letters, there may be the faintest chance that you might miss a plural.

3:35 am

Haz1558

It's unlikely, though, not two days in a row.

3:36 am

3:39 am

LoriP

If you raise your eyebrows, are your lips forced up as well?

3:39 am

Haz1558

I haven't tried that manoeuvre.

3:41 am

LoriP

Joan Rivers style. Skin so tight it looks ridiculous.

3:42 am

Haz1558

I know. Somewhere along the line surgeons have to have the courage to say no.

3:46 am

LoriP

Are there any big words from that stoopid b?

Aloyisius

hi Nono..

6:21 am

Scrabbler

I listened to a story on, I think NPR yesterday, about Feeding America--program to assist the poor, which is increasing due to the economic downfall. People are waiting over 4 hrs in line to get food.

6:21 am

redturtlehead

6:22 am

redturtlehead

I just donated a big bunch of food to the bank. It makes me feel good...

Scrabbler

charitable ...

6:28 am

crosshair

good idea herin..many people forget about the pets in struggling families]

6:28 am

herinfernallady

Here in aus we also have care packages for farmers. Like the ones for the soldiers OS

6:28 am

herinfernallady

People don't have pets if they can't afford them. That is the theory but reality is a pet can come along as a blessing

6:29 am

Scrabbler

I have to get ready for work. Enjoy the day everyone. I will be here tonight after I finish my volunteer pastoral care session at the cancer hospital.

*ugh*

8:35 am

Judi

Anyone know what the 9 starts with?

8:35 am

Anniebrook

sa

8:35 am

LoriP

sa 9/54

8:36 am

LoriP

It's an 8/9 combo

8:36 am

Aloyisius

is the reason related to the TMJ, Eva?

8:36 am

Judi

Ty. Looking.

8:36 am

Haz1558

sa9/54, being a plural for sa8/40

8:37 am

EvaNadine

aloy -- i think they cause each other...ive had TMJ ever since i was little, but lately, ive been getting headaches more often than i should (many probably related to the TMJ)

but really, arent they all FMs and your fault??
;)

8:38 am

Haz1558

Absolutely, EvaN. Blame where it's due.

8:38 am

Aloyisius

8:42 am

Aloyisius

buncha new words for me in this grid

8:43 am

BabbleRabble

yw

8:43 am

EvaNadine

not yet -- i saw the dentists for it back when i was like 12 or so because i got headaches then, but they didnt wanna do too much because i was still growing + i had braces + whatnot...

8:43 am

EvaNadine

in college, i had the mouthguard, which i hated...

8:44 am

EvaNadine

the last few years, ive moved a few times, so i havent really had a steady dentist...
when i mention the TMJ, they dont seem as concerned as id expect...

8:44 am

FMitch

OK mug of tea at the ready and 19 words left to find :)

8:44 am

Trifioso

so sorry to disturb - does anyone have a hint for the first wa 6/30? I have the second one, but not the first....

8:44 am

MonkeyGames

It annoys me that Enable will accept some prefixes, like multi, and not others, like nano. Sigh.

8:45 am

Judi

Hmm. Maybe now is the time, if that is an option. Ask your GP for a referral to an orthopaedistl. I think they are better versed in TMJ than dentists.

8:45 am

Haz1558

Don't anybody stand in FM's way. I see a woman on a mission.

8:45 am

MonkeyGames

Wish I did, Trif!

thanks BR, new words for me

8:48 am

Unusual to have so many new to babble words in one grid

8:48 am

Trifioso

My neighbor down the street is from Amsterdam, and she is heading home for Christmas - need anything???

8:49 am

Judi

Yes, FM. And it's very annoying.

8:49 am

LoriP

Does 3 7's cover it for the p's?

8:55 am

Mom

Trifioso, is there life besides babble?

8:55 am

Haz1558

We are all wonderful people.

8:55 am

LoriP

There's something beside Babble?

8:55 am

Trifioso

it's like heroin, isn't it?

8:55 am

Haz1558

No, heroin is addictive. This causes a mild attachment.

8:56 am

FMitch

and anyway who said anything about completing the grid?

8:56 am

Aloyisius

our Babble Brains are evolving, Trifioso.. yes, you might say it is a wee bit addictive

8:56 am

LoriP

We quit every day, so no worries.

8:56 am

Mom

the company is delightful

8:56 am

Trifioso

ahh, well that's my prob I guess - can't not finish....can't not finish.....can't not finish....

8:57 am

8:59 am

periwinkle

thanks BR, will keep looking

8:59 am

FMitch

8:59 am

Haz1558

That has to go down in babble archives. Surely unheard of for Lori(Canada).

Lori(Canada) should know better by now, but no. Some people cannot be taught.

no *grumpiness* there was a screaming child in there and THEN the mother told me off for looking unimpressed!

11:21 am

Haz1558

Oh good grief!

11:22 am

Haz1558

Can't a body look unimpressed in peace?

11:22 am

flosey

thanks Haz and Ru

11:22 am

Atalante

obviously not! So I got up and left, wasn't dealing with that!

11:23 am

Haz1558

So did your eye test go okay? No screaming infants in there?

11:23 am

Atalante

yes, that was fine :D I ordered 2 new pairs of glasses, Boots have a 2 for 1 offer at themoment

11:24 am

periwinkle

11:24 am

Haz1558

I love Boots. I take great advantage of their advantage card.

hi peri

11:24 am

periwinkle

I have two of the sp8, one ends in male offsprings and the other ends in plural preposition

11:24 am

Atalante

me too! and I got 3 £15 presents for £30, so that was good

11:25 am

Haz1558

Yes, the 3 for 2 thing is great.

11:25 am

72 Temple Owl

peri: little sp6/21? hi all

11:26 am

Haz1558

Hello TO, nice to see you.

11:26 am

Atalante

hi TO

11:26 am

Haz1558

lynxxx - I'm a bit confused, aren't you here really early?

11:26 am

periwinkle

only have one sp6/21, not sure if it is the correct

11:27 am

lynxxx

You are not confused, it is early Haz

11:27 am

periwinkle

do the 3 sp8 all start with the same 4 or 5 letters

11:27 am

Haz1558

I wondered. Are you up early by choice?

11:28 am

72 Temple Owl

if you eat with them, it is

11:28 am

periwinkle

thanks Owl, got your clue

11:28 am

Haz1558

The last sp8 - extends the cutlery that the dish ran away with.

11:28 am

Haz1558

See you TO.

11:29 am

Haz1558

Oh poor lynxxx, back pain is horrible.

11:30 am

Haz1558

The first sp8 ends in a charged particle, the second ends in plural male offspring, the third sp8, a plural benefactor, last sp8 extends the cutlery.

11:31 am

Atalante

oooof. just to make the day even better, I now have to pluck a number out of the air to charge someone who wants to buy knotwork-from-hell

11:31 am

periwinkle

I have the 3 sp8, thanks Haz, but still need another 8

11:32 am

periwinkle

oh, there are 4 sp8?

11:32 am

Haz1558

There are 4 sp8.

11:32 am

lynxxx

This is a bad thing Ata?! is that the one we saw the design for

11:32 am

Haz1558

Can we join in plucking numbers out of the air?

11:33 am

Haz1558

And lynxx, have you injured your back or is it a flare up of previous trouble?

11:33 am

Atalante

it's a good thing, but I''m VERY bad at pricing!

11:33 am

Haz1558

How many hours work?

11:33 am

periwinkle

got the third sp8, thanks Haz

11:33 am

sheneigne

ty haz for those 8's got them all

11:33 am

Haz1558

That's good peri.

11:34 am

Atalante

you really can't price art from hours, cos you'd end up charging about 5p an hour lol. But it was 3 weeks work on and off.

11:34 am

Haz1558

Glad it helped, sheneigne.

11:34 am

cybernan

good morning/afternoon, everyone :)

11:34 am

Haz1558

What figure do you have in mind?

11:35 am

Haz1558

Hello nance!

11:35 am

lynxxx

Haz - about 20 years. Monthly visits to chiro manages it well - except when I do stupid things like house painting

11:36 am

Haz1558

I hope it gets better soon, lynxxx, it's hateful to be in pain.

11:36 am

lynxxx

Hi C'nan

11:36 am

Atalante

about $100 I guess. I guess? Maybe?!

11:36 am

Haz1558

I'd expect to pay a lot more than that, Ata.

11:37 am

Atalante

but this is a friend and and ... and I can't charge more than that! that says it's good!

11:38 am

Haz1558

It IS good. Of course it's worth more than £100!

11:38 am

periwinkle

58 left, bbs

11:38 am

Atalante

*whimper*

11:38 am

Atalante

I like you, Haz :) you're good for the ego!

11:38 am

flosey

could I have a clue for be6 please?

11:39 am

EspritdJean

there's a 8====D in the grid

11:39 am

Haz1558

It's a piece of original art work. You've spent a lot of time and energy on it. She wouldn't have commissioned it if she didn't think you were good!

11:39 am

lynxxx

be6 stup be & wet stuff from the sky

11:39 am

Atalante

she didn't commission it, for once! she just saw it and wanted it!!

11:39 am

flosey

thanks lynxxx

11:39 am

Haz1558

be6 - what the child says to the rain when he wants a White Christmas.

11:40 am

Haz1558

So she wants it. Let her pay for it!

11:40 am

Haz1558

Why not suggest a higher figure - if she faints, you can go to plan B.

11:40 am

Atalante

lol true!

11:41 am

Atalante

$101, please! :D

11:42 am

Haz1558

I know it's difficult to think in business-like terms for things you produce yourself - why not take some stuff to an art gallery or something and see how much they suggest it's worth?

11:42 am

lynxxx

You have a responsibility to all artists to not underestimate or devalue your work Ata. you should be able to make a living for yourself

11:43 am

Haz1558

Exactly. Artists starve in garrets because you won't price properly.

11:43 am

Atalante

hmmm yes good idea. it's just so - so - immodest to claim large prices for something you made yourself somehow

11:44 am

Haz1558

Anybody know how to reach through the monitor and grab somebody by the shoulders to give a shaking?

11:44 am

lynxxx

rubbish! (not meant nastily by the way)

11:44 am

Atalante

lol I know. it's just difficult

11:44 am

EspritdJean

what's the crime?

11:45 am

lynxxx

Ata is selling herself cheap!

11:45 am

Atalante

that sounds like I'm a cheap prostitute!

11:46 am

Haz1558

The crime is having Ata underestimate the commercial value of her work. It's not just a hobby or a little craft diversion.

11:46 am

EspritdJean

Ata consider yourself shaken

11:46 am

Atalante

*is shaken*

11:47 am

Trifioso

Could I please have a hint for the un 8/45?

11:48 am

Haz1558

Trif, follow the un with a word that means strong and robust.

11:48 am

Haz1558

You'll find it in the section containing male offspring.

11:48 am

Trifioso

maybe a slightly bigger hint?

11:49 am

Haz1558

so6/18 - follow male offspring (plural) with a couple of vowels.

11:49 am

nancethefan

brb - washer stopped

11:49 am

EspritdJean

freakish word

11:50 am

Trifioso

got them both! Thanks! Have all the u's in the grid now....

11:50 am

flosey

could I please have a clue for os6

11:50 am

Haz1558

It's kind of Scots, Esprit. Need we say more?

11:50 am

EspritdJean

guess not haz

11:51 am

Haz1558

os plus the start of the Parisian river

11:51 am

lynxxx

os6 ends like Sadam

11:52 am

flosey

thanks Haz and Lynxxx

11:52 am

flosey

had seen that clue before but always went in wrong direction

11:52 am

Haz1558

You're welcome, flosey.

11:52 am

EspritdJean

why isn't tannis a word!/ It was in Rosemary's Baby

11:52 am

flosey

and that's fireworks

11:53 am

flosey

isn't tannis a girl's name?

11:53 am

lynxxx

Congrats Flosey!

11:53 am

Haz1558

Congratulations flosey!

EspritdJean

12:00 pm

Atalante

Sily was up for a while. Hobbit now, then Sily again :)

12:01 pm

lynxxx

Punctuation is the theme for today

rens

thanks so much haz! awesome cluee

12:01 pm

Haz1558

Or, s plus most of Cleopatra's love interest, finish with the opposite of out.

12:01 pm

Trifioso

how does only adding an s, worth one point, add 14 points to the word total? Is it multiplied or something?

12:01 pm

Haz1558

You're welcome, rens.

12:02 pm

Trifioso

oh nm, it is in the help

12:02 pm

Haz1558

Four letter words are the points. Five letter words are the points doubled, six letters trebled and so on.

12:02 pm

hurshy

OR, S + a US Supreme court justice (first name)

12:02 pm

lynxxx

Trif - check out the Help above, will explain the points to you

12:02 pm

hurshy

*is madly in love with trifioso already*

12:03 pm

Trifioso

why hurshy???? bec I managed to check help all by myself, or cuz I was stupid enough to ask BEFORE I checked????

12:03 pm

hurshy

the former.

12:03 pm

hurshy

and now that statement adds to your wondrousness.

12:03 pm

Haz1558

It happens so seldom.

12:04 pm

Trifioso

well, then I luuuurve you right back. Honestly, I am so glad my cousin tipped me off about this game. I am getting NOTHING done, but you all are the nicest bunch of folks!

12:04 pm

Atalante

ooo who is your cousin?

12:04 pm

EspritdJean

we certainly ARE getting something done...we are plotting to take over the world

12:04 pm

hurshy

i made a directory of our building with floor plans and everything and put it in the entryway, and i think ONE person has noticed it in the past two months.

12:04 pm

Haz1558

Some people claim that it's addictive but I just can't see it myself.

12:04 pm

Trifioso

aknitter

Atalante

12:07 pm

Haz1558

Oh, hello FM!

12:07 pm

Trifioso

well, I like to work off the tile stats, because I don't want it to be too easy, but when I get frustrated or need a nudge I look at lickety's thing, but I hate having to add the words one at a time after I do the first big drop. Then, when I STILL can't do it, I ask for hints from you guys, but I don't usually like them TOO easy

12:07 pm

Atalante

Hello Denny. The grid yields some words never seen before.

12:10 pm

FMitch

It is hard today Denny

12:10 pm

12:14 pm

hurshy

i want sorbet and passion. maybe passionfruit sorbet.

12:14 pm

Haz1558

Trif, there are lots of resources available for help - the nice thing is that it's entirely up to you how much or how little you want to use them.

12:15 pm

hurshy

we have it too often, trifioso, we have grown bored with it

12:15 pm

Trifioso

nice problem to have!

12:15 pm

Trifioso

and again, I am new here....

12:15 pm

Haz1558

Trif - you should have been here the day pe5/12 was in the grid. I tried manfully to clue it (delicately) for someone who just could NOT get it. Eventually the penny dropped and she claimed 'Oh, it was right in front of my nose the whole time'

12:15 pm

Trifioso

lol! Now that WOULD be an unusual prob

12:16 pm

jakes-mum

haz!!! are you being rude, really i leave the room for 5 mins . . .

12:16 pm

Haz1558

Rude? Moi?

12:16 pm

Haz1558

Oh wait, that's what herin thinks as well!

12:16 pm

Atalante

who was that? I can't remember

12:17 pm

hurshy

dang it, pension doesn't quite connect.

12:17 pm

Atalante

no, that's *bitchy*

12:17 pm

jakes-mum

i come back and your talking about pe5/12's infront of peoples faces

12:17 pm

Haz1558

Shorty. It was so funny.

12:17 pm

Haz1558

And don't forget the immature.

12:17 pm

hurshy

am i getting this right... herin thinks haz is immature?

12:18 pm

Atalante

oh yes LOL. it was so funny!

12:18 pm

Haz1558

Can I blame Trif for starting the conversation, jakes-mum?

12:18 pm

Haz1558

Yes, hurshy. And more besides.

12:18 pm

jakes-mum

noooo trif is new, you been here for YEARS!!!

12:19 pm

Haz1558

Don't be telling Trif that - I've been trying to say that babble isn't addictive.

12:19 pm

Trifioso

well, I *did* start the convo....

12:19 pm

hurshy

but immature strikes me particularly, not because it's (meant to be) an insult, but because it's so... inaccurate

12:20 pm

Haz1558

Thank you, hurshy.

12:20 pm

Atalante

yes, it's just silly!

12:20 pm

jakes-mum

babble addictive? never, we are only here as support and company for dr god who is the only 'true' babble addict

12:20 pm

crosshair

babble is not addictive...ive quit many times;)

12:20 pm

jakes-mum

and i wouldn't say your immature haz, your young at heart!

12:20 pm

Haz1558

See, Trif? Not addictive at all. You're safe.

12:20 pm

hurshy

i had to add the meant to be, because i take the "Psych" theme song view on it myself "I'm not inclined to resign to maturity"

12:21 pm

EspritdJean

I drew a pic of the pe5 before and nobody even noticed

12:21 pm

EspritdJean

it looked like this 8======D

12:21 pm

12:21 pm

12:21 pm

12:21 pm

hurshy

why do i have a craving for FISH

12:22 pm

jakes-mum

bye cross

12:22 pm

hurshy

is it because there is POISSON in the grid?

12:22 pm

Haz1558

Oh! I thought you were saying that there was a word beginning with b and ending with D.

12:22 pm

Haz1558

That is the reason, hurshy, indubitably.

12:22 pm

hurshy

but there's no D, haz

12:23 pm

Trifioso

oh, gads, is that what that was, esprit? I saw it, but thought you meant a long word ending with a d, which I didn't understand, since there isn't a d today. DUH

12:23 pm

Haz1558

I know. That's what made it even more confusing.

12:23 pm

EspritdJean

yes THAT"S what it was

12:23 pm

Atalante

1:04 pm

He had an MRI. He waited a long time before the orthopedist could see him. He lay on the couch in pain for weeks. Then he got two epidurals and got better. It took months to really recover. NOt what you wanted to hear

oh oh katie... better move here. you're falling apart over there!

3:05 pm

stidmama

okay, these SA are hard. help on the first SA 6?

3:05 pm

KatieMcG

cooker is usually and oven with a stove on top but in my case I meant a built in oven

3:06 pm

KatieMcG

I know stid. The heating is working but won't turn off when it is up to temp in the house - hence it becomes a sauna and the water is not heating.

3:06 pm

stidmama

so I assume you replaced it already? or are you subsisting on peanut butter and jelly sandwches?

3:06 pm

stidmama

I would trade houses, katie... I can never get mine warm enough!

3:07 pm

jessmom

Vicuna

Someone wants to buy the original, Ata? Congrats...

3:36 pm

Renegade

Or puzzle or whatever it is

3:36 pm

Atalante

they do. and I'm UTTERLY stuck about pricing it

3:36 pm

KatieMcG

she shouted

3:36 pm

Vicuna

So, the sensible answer is to see what you can find that other people are charging for similar work, if possible...

3:36 pm

pythonx

renegade, it's an addiction

3:36 pm

Atalante

Vi understands these issues, you see!

3:36 pm

KatieMcG

expensive ata, especially as it took so long

3:36 pm

Vicuna

compare it with what prices you've gotten for your work previously...

3:36 pm

Atalante

the only people doing similar things are vastly famous *sigh*

3:36 pm

KatieMcG

3:37 pm

jessmom

sa6 is plural of last sa5/10

3:38 pm

Renegade

what id sa5/10

3:38 pm

Vicuna

Well, keep in mind that my own stuff is priced based on being editions of multiples, which always sell for less than single pieces...

3:38 pm

Atalante

haz said I should charge more than $100 and that's scary!

3:38 pm

pythonx

sa5 = sa*** domingo

3:38 pm

nurse1000

Well, how easy. Thans jessmom

3:38 pm

Vicuna

... But I'd say you should ask something in the neighborhood of $125 - $200.

3:39 pm

Atalante

I love you. I was vaguely thinking $120, and I always go too low

3:39 pm

jessmom

yw nurse

3:39 pm

Haz is absolutely right. I think anything less than that is inconsistent with what's out there.

3:40 pm

Renegade

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

3:41 pm

kalea

i need to go take a nap..........see you all later

3:41 pm

Vicuna

People who are profession and in demand routinely charge $250 for watercolors of that size. So maybe you don't sell in galleries with a big name for yoruself, so you ask a bit less, but the quality of the work i sstill there.

3:41 pm

Atalante

true. very true.

rene, bad clue. you probably have the other an4

3:47 pm

Atalante

that's the problem with art, Katie, you can never charge enough for a per hour rate

3:47 pm

Vicuna

That's the way I feel about my quilts, Katie. I won't sell them, only give them away because you couldn't pay me enough to make sense.

3:47 pm

Vicuna

oops, PB for me! =P

3:48 pm

pythonx

there is an an5 that is a spice. if you drop the vowel at the end you get an4.

3:48 pm

KatieMcG

don't worry vic, I didn't have it so I think you should be let off

3:48 pm

Atalante

I agree

3:48 pm

Renegade

oh. do you have a clue for the an4/4 you are talking about

3:48 pm

Vicuna

Ah, but we can't be making exceptions, Katie, or the next thing you know the world will be mere anarchy.

That's too bad to lose a good neighbor.

3:57 pm

KatieMcG

I'm really pleased for them as it's what they want to do but at the same time worried about what we will end up with, cause after last year I'm not moving for the rest of my life!

3:58 pm

Vicuna

Tell them they can't leave until you're sure of their replacements.

3:58 pm

Atalante

interview anyone that turns up to view the house, and inform them you keep roosters if you don't like them

3:59 pm

Vicuna

Even better, Ata. in fact, the possibilities for discouraging folks to move in could be quite entertaining.

3:59 pm

KatieMcG

it's the house we a joined to as well which makes it more of a risk, I hope the replacement likes cats!!!!

4:00 pm

Atalante

they'd better do!

4:00 pm

KatieMcG

'cause my little darlings think that their garden extends over the two plots regardless of the 6 foot fence between the gardens

5:43 pm

oodleberry

this one employer to whom i went today told me he doesn't want to hire me cause my french isn't good enough.... I went somewhere else and it wasn't the case I asked flat out... what do you think of my french

Oh dear oodle...that is not really helpful then, is it ?

Karys

If you lived here, your French would be wonderful !

5:45 pm

aknitter

that does not seem fair

5:45 pm

oodleberry

i mean if he thought my french wasn't good enough it is because I don't have any quebecker friends... and don't have a real chance in 'practicing' it

5:45 pm

oodleberry

i get compliments on it all the time

5:46 pm

oodleberry

cept when I'm nervous
