as I did with your mystery site. Thank you :)
1:50 am
jillibus

You're very welcome! Have you read the Stieg Larsson books?
1:50 am
sprite

no can't say I have. Are those the books you referred to earlier? I scrolled down, but most of it was already gone
1:51 am
jillibus

yes -- they're great and addictive. Too bad there will never be any more.
1:51 am
sprite

too bad indeed :(
But at least there will be 3 books to read and reread.
1:51 am
jillibus

The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo is the first book.
1:52 am
jillibus

I've almost finished the second one, The Girl Who Played With Fire -- over 700 wonderful pages.
1:53 am
sprite

thank you! I so love mysteries, and reading, and english books. Sounds like a treat for me.
1:53 am
jillibus

The third one just came out -- The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest.
1:53 am
sprite

why won't there be any more?
1:54 am
jillibus

Well, they're English translations from the Swedish.
1:54 am
sprite

I cannot read Swedish, so I'll take the english, lol
1:55 am
jillibus

The author died suddenly before they were even published. Very sad. Google Stieg Larsson.
1:55 am
sprite

I will, thanks jilli. How sad :(
1:55 am
sprite

so... how will I find enoff words today?
1:56 am
jillibus

He was only about 47, if I remember correctly.
1:57 am
jillibus

There's a movie now of the first book, in Swedish with subtitles.
1:57 am
sprite

lol that reminds me of a running gag we have here... The english saying 'enough is enough' mispronounced as if it were french: 'un oeuf is un oeuf', and then to dutch 'een ei is een ei' --> an egg is an egg.
1:57 am
sprite

that is really really sad. And the saddest thing is, it will probably push up his sales figures immensely.
1:59 am
jillibus

There's a problem with that, too -- he and his ladylove never married but she was a big help to him for many years. His brother and father are claiming the inheritance.
2:01 am
sprite

am really sorry for his ladylove.
2:01 am
jillibus

Time magazine ran an interesting article about him a couple of weeks ago.
2:02 am
jillibus

I beleive she's fighting it.
2:03 am
jillibus

*believe
2:08 am
sprite

did you see our egg joke?
2:08 am
jillibus

oh yes -- very good!
2:09 am
sprite

:) It always makes us laugh, especially when other people go 'huh?'
2:11 am
sprite

47 found... this is a real tight grid, isn't it!
2:11 am
jillibus

and the Dutch word for enough is what?
2:11 am
sprite

enough = genoeg
2:11 am
jillibus

I have 48 words and not even nbt.
2:11 am
sprite

almost unpronounceable for you, I think. Two hard Gs.
2:12 am
sprite

no nbt here either
2:12 am
jillibus

well, genoeg ends in eg, anyway ;)
2:12 am
jillibus

I see our ruru is in the grid :)
2:12 am
sprite

lol yes. Though in dutch the oe is a single vowel sound, like the oo in book.
2:13 am
sprite

he is, and he is not valid. Tsssss silly enable.
2:16 am
sprite

actually, the pronunciation would be pretty close to:
'a nook', if you'd put a hard G in front and changed the k into another hard G.
2:18 am
jillibus

and I always thought Dutch and English were related! Not very, eh?
2:18 am
sprite

they are, to a certain extent, but the pronunciation is very different!
2:19 am
sprite

I think the relation can be seen if you look at the words: enough and genoeg. Like ywis and gewis. So very close in form.
2:20 am
jillibus

Oh, I know there are similarities and some words almost exactly the same, but not as many as I once imagined.
2:22 am
sprite

dutch is a very weird language, due to the longstemming international contacts. It is a mixture of the original roots, english, french, indonesian, japanese, spanish, yiddish, german, etc.
2:22 am
jillibus

I have hit a wall at 50 words found. This is another toughie!
2:23 am
jillibus

Well, so is English!
2:23 am
sprite

I am right with you at 53 and the wall. Still need 4 words for nbt.
2:23 am
sprite

that is true!
2:23 am
sprite

I love english. Maybe because of this, lol. Oh... wait, I must share something funny with you. Let me see if I can find it online as well. Was in the kid's paper last week.
2:24 am
Jivingjenny0

Good morning, I have been reading your chog for a while now - please please tell me what nbt stands for.
2:24 am

so do I have 4 blank tiles. But it's morning for you and bedtime for me so I'll wait until my brain is brighter tomorrow!
2:25 am

No Blank Tiles.

It refers to the Tile Stats under the grid. If you've been playing longer than two weeks without "turning pro" you won't see them.

hi Jivingjenny, it means we found at least one word for every tile.
2:28 am

Jivingjenny, you may like that URL too! It is a translation error, so funny.

No I think not, look at him. It is hurting him on the inside, not just on the outside.

2:54 am

lol I have no idea what the D word could be. Guessing it has to be dru... but after that I'm lost
2:54 am
sprite

I am a very soft case, samnz. When he says he is gonna give up some of that yoyo stuff, because he has't got the muscle memory, it makes me feel sad

3:24 am
Andree

chilly here too but the rain has stopped, glad to see it come and after 2 weeks of wet weather very glad to see it go
3:24 am
Haz1558

My fondest wish is that George would be there at the finishing line, but he may have a busy diary.
3:25 am
lizmac

Raining in N.I., Haz? I'm grand thanks. Just back from a week in Carcassonne, for those that don't know it, it's well worth a Google..beautiful.
3:25 am
sandyloo

We need some wet weather but the days are beautiful at the moment
3:25 am
Haz1558

Yes, it's raining here as well, liz. We've had a few days of sunshine but it's gone for now.

Same as us Haz, but lovely while it lasted.
3:26 am
Haz1558

That's the problem, sprite, all those women might be a security nightmare.
3:27 am
sprite

here as well. Overcast and chilly, after a couple of days of lovely summer weather.
3:27 am
Haz1558

It's amazing how sunshine makes you feel so much better.
3:28 am
sprite

they will be, I am afraid. Can't he promise a signed picture to all who finish? Or all who donate? That might speed things up without bringing danger to him?
3:28 am
Haz1558

I'll have to put the idea to him. Good thinking.
3:28 am
sprite

so very true. Quickens the body and the spirit.
3:29 am

am willing to help with the mailing!
3:29 am
sandyloo

who is 'him'?
3:29 am
lizmac

I'm still sun-lagged from holiday, so taking this very badly.
3:29 am
sprite

when it comes to Haz, there is only one HIM
3:29 am
sprite

chilled to the bone, liz?
3:29 am
sandyloo

I take it that Haz is running a fund raiser?
3:29 am
Norma

Help why am I getting the red boxes telling me my words cannot be added
3:30 am
Haz1558

George. And we're not talking Harrison or Formby.
3:30 am
lynxxx

sorry Norma, OK here
3:30 am
lizmac

Indeed, Sprite.
3:30 am
sprite

Norma: that must be a connection problem or a malfunctioning server somewhere. Restarting babble might help.
3:30 am
Haz1558

I'm walking, sandy, definitely walking! 10 miles of a moonlight walk (starting at 10 pm) although it stays light so long here that it will still be light when we start out.
3:31 am
sprite

(control F5 on a windows machine gives you a force refresh)
3:31 am
sandyloo

that happens to me sometimes norma and it generally disappears after a little patience
3:31 am
sprite

*sends liz a suncoloured warm blanket*
3:32 am
sandyloo

Haz, will you be holding His hand, during this moonlight stroll?
3:32 am
lizmac

Thanks, Sprite.
3:32 am
Haz1558

In my dreams only, sandy.
3:32 am
sandyloo

10 miles is a fair walk! I take it that you are looking for sponsors?
3:33 am
sprite

the sponsor page link is in Haz's profile, sandy
3:33 am
Norma

It isn't going away sandy lol
3:33 am
sandyloo

looking....
3:33 am
Haz1558

I'll actually be walking with another friend, sandy. Yes, details are on my profile if anybody wants to help.
3:34 am
Haz1558

Oh, I've just realised that rubyfoo will be pleased. Her dogs are here (ch4/10).
3:35 am
sprite

I lost a very dear friend to breast cancer, a few years ago. She was very young and it went very very fast.
3:35 am
sprite

so here's to regular mammograms
3:35 am
lynxxx

and they are both talking too
3:35 am
sprite

lol lyn
3:36 am
lizmac

Off for breakfast. Look up Carcassonne if you have a spare minute, folks, well worth a look.
3:36 am
sandyloo

got that link haz!
3:36 am
lynxxx

bye Liz
3:36 am
sandyloo

Is "He" going on the walk Haz?
3:37 am
sprite

enjoy, liz
3:37 am
Haz1558

I'm sorry to hear that, sprite. The National Health Service offers screening to women between the ages of 50 and 70. This charity offers free screening to women who are too young or too old to come into the category. They're picking up 6 cancers per month out of 1000 women and then referring for treatment.
3:37 am
Haz1558

Bye liz - I've heard of Carcassonne but I must refresh my memory.
3:37 am
sprite

6%! That is a lot. That proves how necessary it is, doesn't it.
3:38 am
sandyloo

In Aus we can get free mammograms over 50
3:38 am
sprite

my friend was barely 40
3:38 am
Haz1558

6 out of a 1000 rather than 100, though.
3:39 am
sprite

oh, sorry, I missed a zero in my enthusiasm. Still, 6 promille is still worth it.
3:39 am
lynxxx

It seems the same as Great Britain Sandy, stops at 70
3:40 am
Haz1558

It is. I know that any government has finite resources, so I suppose we're stepping in to help broaden the service in the hope of saving lives.
3:41 am
sprite

that's all anyone can do
3:42 am
lynxxx

It seems breasts are too dense to accurately detect lumps under 50....but there is so many young women who are getting it. Surely something is better than nothing. I worked with a young woman, full of life, who was taken at 30. Devastating
3:42 am
sprite

am so sorry, lyn
3:42 am
Haz1558

That's awful, lynxxx.
3:46 am
sprite

fireflies. Thanks all, for the help and the company. Have a relaxing evening and/or a lovely day.
3:46 am

Well done, sprite.
3:47 am

good morning everybody
3:47 am

I can't support you Haz as all my support goes to our Cancer Institute here which does some wonderful research as well as treatment (as well as saving my life). I hope the your organization raises lots of money though!

it's intetesting about mammograms: I had breast cancer almost 20 yrs ago and after I found the two tiny lumps (one the size of a pea, the other, a peppercorn), the mammogram didn't see them.
3:50 am
rubyfoo

I had to insist they were there and by the time the doctors agreed to remove them, I was stage 2A!

Not Yidland surely
8:19 am
samnz

Oh wow you can look at the dictionary definition by clicking on the [?] next to words in the word list. How handy!
8:20 am
samnz

Oh Yiddish is a Hebrew language?
8:22 am
mkg

yiddish was a language made up of german, hebrew and russian by jews living in those lands
8:22 am
samnz

Ahh
8:23 am
mkg

no country ever spoke yiddish. the j ews in europe spoke it and the language of the nation they lived in. the jews made up languages
8:23 am
mkg

there was ladino which was half hebrew and half spanish, and several others, such as one with hebrew and arabic.
8:23 am
samnz

Interesting
8:24 am
mkg

yiddish is dying out now but the english dictionaries in the u.s. have yiddish expressions and words that entered the u.s. vocabulary like "kvetch", "schlepp" etc.
8:24 am
mkg

also words like "schmuck" which is penis in yiddish.
8:24 am

8:34 am
lynxxx

Really?! the politician, he is of jewish descent
8:35 am
samnz

Nah, I've seen him on TV. Something to do with the government
8:35 am
bichon

We went to see the movie LOTR in Q'town and people in the audience were commenting "I know that place"
8:35 am
samnz

Lol no not really, I thought you were making a joke of how everyone in NZ knows everyone else because its such a small country
8:36 am
samnz

I didn't know he was of Jewish decent tho
8:37 am
lynxxx

NZ does have a small population of jews, you should check it out.
8:37 am

I bet most of the Jews in NZ live in Aukland
8:37 am

Probably
8:37 am
samnz

Most of NZ lives in Auckland

Q'town has good restaurants and is the jumping off place for adventures in the wild

8:52 am
lynxxx

Yep - I have a 26 yo daughter who is still doing it. Crazy. You miss out on so much that is happening during the day
8:55 am
samnz

I think it's probably due to a lack of self organization
8:55 am
samnz

Like I have no schedule that I have to adhere to
8:57 am
lynxxx

You are at school or work or in between?
8:58 am

10:47 am
Haz1558

It's mostly easy with a few headscratchers, jmc.
10:57 am
jmcnrick

the big head scratcher for me is un7 since my typing it sent Mother spinning in her grave!
10:57 am
jmcnrick

I can hear her yelling you cannot modify un6/30!
10:58 am
jmcnrick

It is either un6 or not un6 and there is nothing else possible
10:58 am
Haz1558

I know. It's questionable at the very least.
10:59 am
Haz1558

Typing un7/44 has made you un7/44?
10:59 am
Haz1558

(There are two of them)
10:59 am
jmcnrick

oh ty I had not seen that!
11:00 am

You're welcome.
11:01 am

11:01 am
jmcnrick

convo?
11:02 am
jmcnrick

oo what haz and I are talking about?
11:02 am
LeslieAnn

the un convo :)
11:03 am
Haz1558

Conversation. If something is un6/30 - it means it is special, one of a kind. It can't be more one of a kind, so un7/44, the comparative form is dodgy. un7/44 (the other) means disturbance - un plus not noisy.
11:03 am
jmcnrick

my Mother the English teacher drilled into my head that if something was un6 (singular, one of a kind) it could not be more one of a kind.
11:03 am
Haz1558

I think I would have liked your mother, jmc. She sounds like a fine woman.
11:04 am
crosshair

and yet it will not take noogie..the world is chaos!! aaahhhh!
11:04 am
jmcnrick

she had her moments!
11:05 am
Haz1558

I know, but I'm sure she could use an apostrophe correctly, couldn't she?
11:05 am
jmcnrick

absolutely.
11:05 am
jmcnrick

she could spell too --- I sometimes would call her up to ask her how to spell a word
11:05 am
Ormal

lol - I love this whole conversation. I was telling my son that un6 could NOT possibly be a word when you started talking about it. Then crossy steps in with his comment and had us both laughing. Thanks all.
11:06 am
Haz1558

As I said, a fine woman.
11:06 am
Ormal

sorry, meant un7
11:06 am
jmcnrick

in fact, when I was taking a course on reference library skills. . .
11:07 am
jmcnrick

(you are correct ormal! -- un7 is NOT a word)
11:07 am
crosshair

i believe that word will also work with est
11:07 am
crosshair

not today but i recall it on other grids
11:07 am

we were given an assignment to find the names for different obscure items
11:07 am

tryptch
11:08 am
jmcnrick

one of the words we were to find was the name of the paragraphs that are quotes frequently in a foreign language that are at the beginning of a chapter in a book
11:09 am
jmcnrick

I was the only student that got that word (which I have long forgotten)
11:09 am
Haz1558

Epigram?
11:09 am
Haz1558

Or epigraph?
11:10 am
Haz1558

Googling to find the difference.
11:10 am
jmcnrick

epigraph
11:10 am
jmcnrick

anyway the professor asked me how I found the word and I said. . .
11:10 am
Haz1558

Yes, epigraph.
11:11 am

11:11 am

the whole class laughed at me but my professor was impressed and said a good reference library is not afraid to use an resource
11:11 am
helensgirlkid

I was able to grit my teeth and try un7 (the first one) and just be grateful for the space filled. But wo6 - now that one has me boggling, which is an uncomfortable combination with babbling!
11:12 am
jmcnrick

oh no he's dead! he's a go5!
11:12 am

go5 - looks like a shortened version of a description of milk that's soured.

go 5/20 is, I think, another transliteration of a Yiddish word - in the US it's most commonly spelled with an "i" in the second syllable, and sometimes a double vowel at the end.
11:14 am

Awesome! Did you take time to enjoy it or inhale it?
1:07 pm
Ormal

My husband and I are doing the same Krysten, and I just hate the transition.
1:07 pm
Nancy Boy

all depends on whether you eat to live or live to eat, I guess ;)
1:08 pm

I think my heart just seized up reading that!
1:08 pm
crosshair

lol car,it was an all day sort of thing:))
1:08 pm
Krysten

Ormal, it is hard to get started but it really does work. My husband has lost 40 lbs and me, over 30!
1:08 pm
rubyfoo

I'm afraid that I eat to live because there's nothing that great to eat around here!
1:09 pm
rubyfoo

everything crossy mentions sounds better than anything here, except maybe the guacamole
1:10 pm
crosshair

good food donw well is a celebration of life and laughter with loved ones,i dont made food just to put calories of minerals in or out.i had this one friend who used to only eat thinbgs when her body was in crisis for a particular mineral lol drove me nuts
1:10 pm

although un 7 is a word in Enable, it shouldn't be. How can yu have a comparative of a word that is an absoolute?
1:11 pm
Ormal

I've already started losing weight and we started almost 2 weeks ago. It's portion control that is killing my hubby. I started using one of those tiny plates for my meals.
1:11 pm
Krysten

that is the best thing to do! That's what we needed to do as well.
1:11 pm
rubyfoo

I'm a little bit like a pregnant monkey; I get very specific food cravings
1:11 pm
crosshair

she never enjoyed french fries,she ate it cause her sodium was crashing,she never ate beets for the taste,but because her hemoglobin was doing strange things lol
1:12 pm
Krysten

As well as eat breakfast and exercise more regularly.
1:12 pm
rubyfoo

I eat a good breakfast, however
1:12 pm
Soodlebum

Ah, stoppit, will you? I have just demolished a big dish of strawberries and fresh cream. Totally delicious, but murder on the waistline.
1:13 pm
Ormal

we bought bicycles since my knees are shot, and I have heel spurs I'm trying to heal.
1:13 pm
rubyfoo

I planted 12 strawberry plants this year and by next year should have enough to throw a babble party!
1:13 pm
crosshair

the rule i follow is this 'eat breakfast like a king,lunch like a prince and dinner like pauper"
1:13 pm
Krysten

whatever works for you and your husband, ormal, it doesn't matter as long as you move. Great work!
1:14 pm

Irish cream!
1:14 pm

All but one of my strawberry plants died! :(
1:14 pm

1:15 pm

1:15 pm
Soodlebum

Put my name down for the Babble Strawberry party, Ruby, and I will bring the cream.
1:15 pm

1:15 pm
crosshair

1:15 pm
Soodlebum

Hiya Nancy :)
1:15 pm
rubyfoo

1:15 pm
crosshair

it will not take noogie either
1:16 pm
rubyfoo

my husband walks 55 minutes, 5 times a week, while I lie on the couch and read!
1:16 pm
Nancy Boy

well, it's ryanair, so it's a 1 1/2 hour flight, and then a two hour bus ride, and then a walk...
1:16 pm
Soodlebum

Yay. I'll start brushing up on my Francais.
1:16 pm
rubyfoo

oh ata, you are so young!!! lol
1:16 pm

1:17 pm
Krysten

1:17 pm
rubyfoo

hahah krysten
1:17 pm

I ride 7 miles a day 6 days a week.
1:17 pm
crosshair

1:17 pm
Krysten

And, it burns calories...just to tie the two subjects together!
1:17 pm
rubyfoo

great way to lose weight!
1:17 pm
Nancy Boy

I don't know what a nooner is, but I'm guessing it's relating to either sex or alcohol ;)
1:17 pm
Atalante

I see .. I think!
1:17 pm
Ormal

nooners went when the hubby started working so far away... darn
1:17 pm
bichon

ruby, I can commiserate with you. My hubby walks to work, 2 and 1/2 miles each way, in all weather. If he doesn't 2alk, he drives to the gym before work. I power walk, but it's not really enough
1:17 pm
Soodlebum

Then throw in the strawberries and cream...........
1:17 pm
Krysten

Gotta admit, better than bikes or treadmills!

The amended version doesn't criminalize the act of online gambling, rather it prohibits American poker players from using U.S. financial institutions and their banking tools, including credit cards, checks or funds transfers, when depositing or withdrawing funds at Internet gambling sites. If the law is enacted by President Bush, it will become illegal for online gambling companies to accept monies from U.S. financial institutions.

I finished the grid toni4/4 so here is a story of clues I was a complete nu 4/6 today.At no4/4,on my lunch ho4/6,I babbled instead of socializing with the other teachers. I like to babble in my classroom where it is nice and qu5/16 with no husband to bother me.After having go4/6 shopping,I got home today after fo4/8 and reentered the words I found at work into Babble I almost qu4/7 because this grid got hard,but then I called upon those monkeys.My Monkeys were un6/30 today.Usually they are loud and un7/44.No4/4 of my monkeys were bad. They didn't go4/9 around today. They were qu5/16 obedient today and I did not have to hu 4/6 them. They were good hu6/24s & hu4/6ed for a lot of words. I think that I have re5/18ed faith in my monkeys. One of my monkeys was un7/44 than the others.He wanted to be rewarded with an Oscar Meyer we6/30 instead of bananas. After I completed the grid, I let them be ru6/21s and ru 6/39 to places unknown.Now I am available to clue.I think I need to ho4/5 my cluing skills.Then I'm going to look for some ch4/10 to ch 4/10 on.

not really a whole lot to do for a dry socket. don't suck on straws or chew gum, that just irritates the hole.
