OK, since I luv my babble friends I will tell a story. I was raised Catholic my early years. As we were prepared for our first confession, the sisters and the priests kept warning us about "those" thoughts - as in IM6. Fine, so I go to confession, start with the usual I stole a cookie, and then, for whatever reason told the man behind the screen that i had had ______ thoughts. Got assigned a few Hail Marys & Our Fathers. Later I went home all nervous. "Mom, I lied in confession! I said I had an ______ thought and I don't even know what that is!" I don't remember what my mom said, she probably gave me a cookie, but the story was very durable at familty gatherings.

Melon - that reminds me of a story about myself when I was in Grade 1. My parents always took us to church. At some point during the mass, I realized there was a line up outside some doors. So I asked my Mom if I could go to the washroom and went and stood in line behind the people waiting at the confessionals.

Hi Lynxx, welcome to the Haunted Grid
4:59 am
Michnick
I know, what's with me today? Is it just that I am supposed to be working at home today but cannot get down to it?
5:01 am
sprite
feelings of guilt can be very upsetting
5:03 am
Michnick
That must be it.
5:04 am
herinfernallady
Mich Get up have a shower. Focus. Think of one thing you can do and do it
5:04 am
sprite
lol nope, also not valid
5:04 am
sprite
good advice,lady, that is the only thing that works for me on days like that
5:04 am
lynxxx
almost is, change last letter
5:05 am
Michnick
Good idea, except I just had a shower. I'm nursing my 2nd cup of coffee. Brang isn't a word but it's there and I can't convince my kids it doesn't exist.
5:05 am
sprite
so tell them to brang you more coffee!
5:05 am
herinfernallady
Even if you go and clean the loo. One small thing
5:06 am
Michnick
I love it Sprite! Except (Thank GD) they are still in school, coming home for lunch soon which I will use to put off work.
5:06 am
Michnick
No, lady, I am supposed to be working on work stuff for my job. Today is officially my day off, but I am too behind to ignore it.
5:07 am
sprite
well there you are. On your day off, you are supposed to relax. Working on days off is a sure way to burnout. It is your selfpreserving talent that keeps you babbling. Good for you.
5:07 am
BabbleRabble
Any incoming today. Michnick?
5:08 am
sprite
yes, that one is valid, but should be put into the other box
5:08 am
Michnick
YIKES, OK Now I am going to set up Babble Bar. Nachos with Salsa anyone!
5:08 am
Michnick
Status quo here BR. Jerusalem is still quiet.
5:09 am
herinfernallady
OH pfffffffft. Ok do this 30 min babble for 1 hour. and so on and so forth
5:09 am
Michnick
Thanks for the support friends!
5:10 am
sprite
ok so there WAS a gh word. Finally found my last G.
5:12 am
BabbleRabble
You have much to be concerned about, Michnick .... perhaps you may need to calm yourself and proceed as you can without disparaging yourself
5:12 am
sprite
I have to get downstairs, daughter will be coming home for lunch very soon now. Bye all!

5:28 am
BabbleRabble

5:33 am
Trifioso
no way, kje - in fact, borrow my tip = tell everyone you are 48 today , and listen to the gasps of shock and compliments over how amazing you look all day long...
5:33 am
lynxxx
ab8 - you can add a to br7.44
5:34 am
BabbleRabble
ab 8 -- add a speed contest: ***e; pet: c***
5:34 am
Michnick
Thanks Lynxx, except I don't have the br 7
5:35 am
lynxxx
br7 br*n** of a tree & 2 vowels
5:35 am
kje
aaahhh - ab8 is an anatomical term
5:35 am
BabbleRabble
age is just a number and the more you have aged the higher the number
5:35 am
kje
true br... but that is not the ONLY effect of aging : )
5:35 am
Michnick
OK, I got the word but I don't see how pet fits there.
5:35 am
lynxxx
it all gets easier as you get older
5:36 am
herinfernallady
KJE its your birfday
5:36 am
kje
how is that lynxx?
5:36 am
Michnick
Lynxx, what exactly gets easier as you get older?
5:36 am
lynxxx
I wondered too, my daughter said there used to be fast growing pet plants
5:36 am
kje
*can't figure out why herin insists on reminding me about that* LOL
5:36 am
BabbleRabble
pet is ch 4/6
5:37 am
Michnick
Ok, I got that, I just guessed and got the ch4
5:37 am
lynxxx
Everything gets easier, the kids grow up, money is easier cause you don't want as much, you become more tolerant of people & life etc...well, in my book anyway
5:37 am

Michnik, My hubby and I were talking at dinner last night about the rockets. He's very well informed about warfare [from an academic point of view]. He doesn't think the Gaza rockets could reach Jerusalem

there is gonna be some tritchy nut case in some 3rd world area going to go off the deep end and let off a dirty squirt bomb that he made in some basement and poison hakf of some country bichon..crazy people
6:03 am
Michnick
No, he's right, Bich, the trouble will grow if any of the other groups get involved from other places. We are just a stone's throw from Jordan (OK a long throw, but close enough).
6:04 am
bfsog
thanks lady dont go to any trouble
6:05 am
herinfernallady
Sorry Bfs it seems to have gone to crap since i was last there
6:05 am
Michnick
That is the scary part, Crosshair. They are so many terrorists convinced they are right and willing to die for it. We have been living with that side of it for years already.
6:06 am
crosshair
i am very sorry you are in the midst of it mich

My husband's coworker has a daughter wo went to Israel to study right before the Lebanon incursion and had to come home as rockets were hitting Haifa and she returned recently to have it happen again [I don't know exactly where in Israel she is]
6:09 am
crosshair
the U.S and soviets have been at the nuclear game so long that they now realize that there can be no winner,no such thing as acceptable losses in that kind of fighting.what scares me are countries new to the technology who dont yet realize this

sorry all enough doom and gloom,babble time:)

herinfernallady
Sorry BFs you ahve me completly stumped
6:12 am

6:12 am
Trifioso
no, it's fine crossy, you raise an excellent issue. and we all have mich on our mind today, so of course we are thinking such thoughts
6:12 am
Michnick
Thank you all for the thoughts. I agree with you, CrossH, there can be no winner.
6:13 am

6:14 am
herinfernallady
GO its very awesome though
6:15 am
Michnick
Well, mkg is my neighbor's daughter's mother in law. If anything happened here she'd know right away. But I really don't anticipate it getting that bad, not where I am at least.
6:15 am
Trifioso
please understand, I don't mean to overstep. obviously your family would come first, I totally get that, I just know that this is a close community, and I am sure there are folks on here you are friendly with, is all.
6:16 am
Michnick
Of Trif! You don't overstep, you have no idea how touched I am by your care and concern!
6:16 am

Ishult has been on this last week. ARB, also in Israel, is a regular player but does not chat as much as she used to

Where are the other 8s please.

Trifioso
LOL kristine!
6:29 am

Dat not nice lol
6:29 am
Katydid0615
but a bichon is a dog isn't it?
6:29 am
bichon
No problem Kris. Before we got Bichons I used to think it was a very funny name. People call them Bitchn' frizzes
6:29 am
KristineNas
yes it is
6:29 am

Thanks for the la 8 clue. And the third one is where?
6:30 am
KristineNas
very good clue lynn
6:30 am
Trifioso
wow, thanks lynn1 that's the 8s for me...
6:31 am
Merk
And on my way to the br 8, I got an unusual br 7 thanks to your clue.
6:31 am
Merk
Somehow I only have two 7s left as well.
6:32 am
Merk
This is an unusual and interesting grid thus far.
6:32 am
Trifioso
the fact that it is "british spelling day" helps a lot with the 7's
6:32 am
KristineNas
Can I have a clue for the 2nd Na please ?
6:32 am
Katydid0615
daughter used to have a bichon. it was a very high strung dog.
6:32 am
Trifioso
i think it is the lack of an "s" that makes it so - no plurals means more unique words to find
6:33 am
bichon
Katy, that's strange, cause Bichons are the opposite of high-strung. Ours have been very mellow
6:33 am
Katydid0615
could be because she had 4 kids running around and the dog was probably scared witless.
6:34 am
Katydid0615
they ended up giving her to an elderly lady who did very well with her.
6:34 am
bichon
That would do it Katy. Bichons can't be mistreated. They need to be adored
6:34 am
suefrad625
brick a br/5 18

hmmmm. i must have been a bichon in a past life....

This is very important...How do you dry sneakers in the dryer without the door getting kicked open?
6:35 am

lol Trif - and rightly so
6:35 am

6:50 am
Sheimi492
it would take a miracle for me to complete this puzzle, although i hope i do because firewors are pretty :D
6:51 am
flosey
you will Sheimi, just stay with it,
6:51 am
Sheimi492
note - that should be fireworks

that may backfire on you sue , it might wreck he stuffing in the pillow , depending on what type of filler is in them
6:52 am
Sheimi492

6:53 am

Scrabbs, How do parents cope with this?
8:32 am
Scrabbler
Yep, bad things happen everyday, so we must be grateful for good health and the simple joys of each day.
8:32 am

Parents do what they have to do--become nurses and help their kids fight the fight.

helloo mr. p.....i am trying to finish up and get my day started. i have to return some stuff today, which is the task i dread the most. why is returning stuff so hard???
9:05 am
Judi
Mmmm... watch the test pattern on the telly?
9:06 am
mrpresident
watching the hopman cup on tv will but me to sleep... it is slovakia vs usa. that should get me off
9:06 am
Trifioso
I always feel embarrassed somehow...like I failed by buying too much, am bothering the clerk with my sad returns, etc. it just always bums me out. hmmm - could be overthinking it? :)
9:06 am
Babs1
if you're going to stay up, give us some clues mrp!

LOL, Mr. P. Your sleep deprivation is starting to show.
9:07 am
Trifioso
and btw, THAT induces sleep
9:07 am
mrpresident
so.... I should be tapping on Lickety's shoulder?
9:07 am
EvaNadine
*I* was going to let that one slip by, un-commented on...
9:07 am
Trifioso
not his shoulder, dear, no
9:07 am
Judi
Don't worry about returning stuff, Trif. I was at the mall yesterday (don't ask me why) and people were walking IN with bags and bags of stuff to return. You are not alone.
9:07 am
mrpresident
hahaha!! love it trif!!
9:08 am
Trifioso
thanks judi. i just put it off and put it off, and it needs to be done...
9:08 am

9:08 am
Trifioso
worst is that I have some liquor to return to the store where I bought the NYE supply. what is a bigger sign of being a loser than overbuying booze?
9:08 am
Judi
I have an La8.

EvaNadine
AB8/60, LA8/55
9:09 am
EvaNadine

9:09 am
mrpresident
ok, I will 'retire' to my 'chambers' and bid you all 'fairwell and adieu'.
Poor Lickety, he is in for a rough night of 'parlour' trash.... pray for him!
Love you all and good night!!!

9:19 am
Judi
Best to return the champers then, Trif. Lord knows, if I had that much, I'd only drink it. If it's not around, no temptation.
9:21 am
Judi
Protesting: ancho is a chile pepper.
9:22 am
beachboggle
I'm with you, Judi... ancho should be accepted
9:22 am
Judi
And "churro" is a dessert. I guess Babble doesn't speak spanish.
9:22 am
Trifioso
i agree, judi, that is why I am taking it back! I don't want it there, calling to me....
9:25 am
EvaNadine
so many stinkin phantoms today!

True that, Eva. Must. Not. Type. "Mirror". Again.

carleekat
back in a few...
9:34 am
inge
OK, when is their next election?
9:35 am
harpjane
well said carlee, do you think the babble community would have a better chance at solving the problems in the middle east, or should we leave it to the politicians?
9:36 am
Trifioso
harp and beach, there is no s today, so more unique words to find, and LOADS of phantoms....it makes it quite tricky
9:37 am
inge
Remember when a section of West India voted in the Communist, and out again two years later. That was in the 50's I think., But it can be done
9:37 am
harpjane
good thing it's relatively small, huh tri?
9:38 am
Trifioso
a relatively good thing, yes :)
9:38 am
inge
Now I have to look up some of these NEW words
9:39 am

9:52 am
fuquayvarina
inge, is there an ar 6/24? if so, could you clue it?
9:56 am
Trifioso

the first half was easy -- now for the slogging!
10:17 am
MonkeyGames
I am just livid: we are avid House fans and were very excited that 13th Street is showing lots of epsodes. Recorded some we haven't seen in a while, watched them-- they were censored!!!!
10:17 am
skooj
clue for the ab7? is it related to the 8?
10:17 am
Judi
Ah, Fireworks at last.
10:17 am
Trifioso
in what way? language, content, etc?
10:17 am
skooj
congrats, judi
10:17 am
Trifioso
yay judi!!!
10:17 am
MonkeyGames
Some of the more graphic imagery.
10:18 am
Trifioso
is 13th street a public channel, or a govt owned one?
10:18 am
MonkeyGames
Cable only. We are talking a dedicated thriller channel after kids' usual bedtimes and everything. I wrote thema letter.
10:19 am
MonkeyGames
Plus they cut things the Dutch public stations wouldn't have, so that's not an issue anyway.
10:19 am
Trifioso
i am glad you did so.
10:19 am
Judi
Wow, Monkey. I watch House all the time. Can't remember much graphic imagery. Seen a few bloody noses. House doesn't really go for the gross-out too often.
10:19 am
cybernan
ab? -- don't have any ab words
10:19 am
Judi
House is no where near as bad as CSI. Constant gore there.
10:20 am
MonkeyGames
They cut the pan-down to show diarrhea on a bed in the radiation sickness one, they cut the guy's eye swelling out in the big-toungue-guy one. Couple other things.
10:20 am
Trifioso
skooj, that is the word I am stuck on too - my last one!
10:20 am
MonkeyGames
I never got into CSI...
10:20 am
BabbleRabble
ab 8 -- a + undergarment and pet
10:20 am
Trifioso
honestly, ick. I am not sure I would *want* to see those things, anyway...
10:20 am
skooj
ab7? is it related BR?
10:21 am
MonkeyGames
Well, not as such per se and all, but they are brief and integral...
10:21 am
skooj
ohhh, trif...it's driving me mad
10:21 am
BabbleRabble
ab 7 -- add a nuclear *****or
10:21 am
MonkeyGames
Not like they zoom in or anything... and they cut off dialogue to cut them out.
10:21 am
Trifioso
i don't want to find it. I don't wnat to do my stuupid errands
10:21 am
Judi
Oh, Trif - ya big whimp. Good for you for writing a letter, Monkey.
10:22 am
kje
lone right column R?
10:22 am

*giggles* Imagines Dutch censors bleeping out House saying "pooh".
10:22 am
cybernan
ty monkey and bab rab
10:22 am
Trifioso
something funny here, mg, is that when reruns of ER (my personal fave) is on, they don't have subtitles for the dialogue that isn't in english. makes for a loooong episode, sometimes!
10:23 am
MonkeyGames
I pointed out that we will not watch their channel again-- which will not be hard as House is the only redeeming thing they have ever shown,but I saw fit not to mention that detail.
10:23 am
MonkeyGames
They did that here with something or other the other day, Trif, with lots of Thai in it...
10:23 am
Judi
Can you watch it online, Monkey? Doubt it's censored there.
10:23 am
BabbleRabble
re 5 ---- and second thespian performance
10:24 am
MonkeyGames
Despite listening to my Thai co-worker on the phone all day I don't understand a syllable of it! You'd think they'd subtitle in ONE of the languages I read well...
10:24 am
kje
nope... off the upper R BR... everyone I try is coming off that upper R!
10:24 am
Trifioso
BBC america has gone down the loo here, that is for true. they used to have a great variety of diff shows, but now it is all gordon ramsay and how clean is your house. total snooze. oh, and cash in the attic, five episodes in a row! visual valium
10:24 am
MonkeyGames
Yeah, we could do that. It was just noice to have something on TV for a change.
10:25 am
kje
visual valium - LOLOL
10:25 am
Judi
Now Gordon Ramsey is someone who gets censored a great deal. Talk about potty mouth!
10:25 am
MonkeyGames
Oh, and here they also tend to put subtitles in the same place on the screen... so if someone is speaking Japanese or Spanish or something, and it was originally broadcast somewhere English-speaking, they put the Dutch right over the English so nobody can read any of it!
10:25 am
Trifioso
oh, he is just the WORST. why give such a person a platform?
10:25 am
Trifioso
that is awful, mg! how frustrating!
10:25 am
skooj
any hints for the ou6, please?
10:26 am
kje
ou6 - like the big monkey
10:26 am
Trifioso
like the big primate that isn't black
10:26 am
Judi
I know, Trif. He's so vicious. They must pay the Kitchen Nightmare "victims" very handsomely to put up with his tirades.
10:26 am
skooj
thanks trif and kje...great clues
10:27 am
Trifioso
i just don't think that sort of verbal abuse is necessary, or appropriate in the workplace, or anywhere else, really

Yes. He does take it too far. I can't imagine actually working for him. All his employees must be in therapy. Post-traumatic Gordon Syndrome.
10:28 am
MonkeyGames
Starting to feel a tad warmer now.... had to bike from work to Walter's school (1/2 hour) and then home with him (20 minutes) and it is -3 with a wind out there. At least Walter was wrapped in sheep skin and fleece. I was not.

10:30 am

Geez, Monkey. Your eyeballs must have frozen.
10:30 am
Trifioso
it is SO COLD out there
10:30 am

Hiya, Smukk!

Yeah, Walter and i just went through that one, Trif...

How old are you Judi ?
10:31 am
MonkeyGames
Eyeballs did indeed feel rather brittle. Supposed to be much colder tomorrow. How cold is it THERE, Trif?
10:32 am
Trifioso
i am not sure exactly, but it is pretty cold. 20 or 30 maybe. not bike riding weather, anyway
10:32 am
MonkeyGames
When I said -3 that is of course Celsius; it's 26.6 F out there.
10:33 am
Trifioso
maybe 22
10:33 am
MonkeyGames
Sounds like we're in the same boat.
10:33 am
kje
it is 30 F here... which feels much colder since it was 80 on Saturday... my body is in shock
10:33 am
Trifioso
on new years day we had the crazy folks going swimming in the waters around the city (almost went in the PB!) and it was all of -11 F
10:33 am
kje
i literally heard my feet say, WTF!, this morning
10:33 am
Trifioso
80!!! is that anywhere near normal?
10:34 am
MonkeyGames
That is a shocking transition, kje! I'm surprised people's bones didn't just shatter.
10:34 am
kje
no, it was above norma;
10:34 am
Trifioso
lol kje
10:34 am

though normal for dallas is a moving target - it is normal to go hot cold hot cold, etc
10:35 am

yes, we have a saying here kje "if you don't like the weather in new england, wait a minute"
10:35 am
kje
it is no longer lonely
10:35 am
MonkeyGames
Wow. At least our sunlight is an oblique yellow and the sky has been that scrubbed-steel blue I find pretty, with a lot of swans flying around for some reason.
10:36 am

hey, we say that too trif
