hi all
8:08 am

why do you think it is that whenever i open up my browser window on a computer babble is on top? :-)
8:09 am
Anniebrook

Again I was thrown out of Babble..back after much climbing
8:10 am
jmcnrick

*throws annie a rope*

Sorry jmc don't know enough about computers, but perhaps you have got it in your startup routine?
8:10 am
Anniebrook

thanks jmc, needed a rope
8:11 am
jmcnrick

i think it is because it is the last thing i do every night!
8:11 am
Anniebrook

EvaN, your wedding pics are lovely
8:11 am
jmcnrick

they are very nice Evan
8:13 am
EvaNadine

thankyou. :)
not many posted up there yet, but got a few good ones!
8:14 am
jmcnrick

unusual boquet
8:14 am
EvaNadine

which is just my style. :)
8:21 am
jmcnrick

its good to do you wedding in your own style rather than a cookie cutter model
8:21 am
MollyL

And oh, they are all so cookie cutter these days. Same style dress, same hair style, same tiara, etc.
8:21 am
jmcnrick

it is the use of "wedding planners" that i blame
8:22 am
jmcnrick

and having people learn to dance to do the "first dance"
8:23 am
EvaNadine

we did the general flow in a mostly-traditional way, but we definitely had very specific personal touches throughout.
8:24 am
jmcnrick

but traditional is fine if that is what expresses you
8:24 am
jmcnrick

it is the people who do things because they are "suppose to" that i am talking about
8:24 am
EvaNadine

i think my mother was stunned at first when i said i wouldnt be wearing a veil, but that i WOULD be wearing orange shoes.
once she saw everything put together, she totally understood my vision. :)
8:25 am
jmcnrick

i know you made all the decisions on your wedding -- all of babbleland was part of it
8:25 am
jmcnrick

:-) and happy to be part of it
8:25 am
MollyL

I know someone else who incorporated Fall colors into a Fall wedding and it was beautiful. And such a nice change from the "usual colors".
8:26 am
EvaNadine

our pastor did an amazing job with the ceremony. i knew he would do good, but it really was the loveliest ceremony i have ever experienced. i know im biased, but he just made it so personal.

and then, when it was time to exchange vows, chris got down on his knee. he explained the it was to show honor to me.
i thought that was very sweet.
8:29 am
MollyL

Happy memories Eva. Did someone videotape for you?
8:30 am
EvaNadine

we didnt videotape it.
i had considered it, but everyone i know you taped it said they have only watched it once or twice ever.
8:31 am
MollyL

Yep, same here. Good on you for saving the money.
8:31 am

hi all. I a think I am looking for a third re and can't seem to find it at all. Have the resew and the reslash..???? Help on the third. THX
8:31 am

that's a re 5
8:31 am
EvaNadine

i could have potentially gotten it done for free, as i have a friend who does that for a living, but i dont like asking for freebies, and he didnt offer, so i just decided not to bother with it.
8:32 am
Read-Knit-Bake

oops not reslash - sorry t throw you off.
8:32 am
hurshy

my grandad just stuck his videocamera in a handy spot and let it run. we don't watch it but if you were to end up in a 50-First-Dates situation i suppose it would come in handy.
8:35 am
hurshy

read-knit, do you need "happen again" for a 5?
8:37 am
Read-Knit-Bake

yes I do
8:37 am
flosey

can you clue the re5 before that one, please?
8:37 am
Read-Knit-Bake

wow I am not paying attention. I have that one already. Have just the one to go and working at the same time..not a good combo. :)
8:38 am
hurshy

i haven't got a 5 before that yet. i just have a 4 before that. "back".
8:39 am
flosey

ok, thanks
8:39 am
hurshy

found it - r + **** homo
8:40 am
flosey

hmmm, guess you can't recry!
8:40 am

thanks hurshy
8:40 am

anyone have the bottom r?
8:41 am
NonoNanette

good morning babblers :)
8:41 am
flosey

yes, ra6/33
8:41 am
Read-Knit-Bake

re + double consonant + vowel. Finally!
8:42 am
NonoNanette

bottorm r - to make something really strange
8:42 am
flosey

thanks RKB
8:46 am
hurshy

aha, thanks
8:46 am
hurshy

i have qu6/27 and qu4/9, what's the other Q?
8:47 am
hurshy

ooh it's a 7/40, pulled a peri!
8:47 am
hurshy

what is the M?
8:47 am
flosey

qu6/27 before the others, q + 2 vowels
8:47 am
EvaNadine

oh good lord!!!!
8:48 am
flosey

sorry, was cluing a 6 that you have
8:48 am
EvaNadine

my mother just g-chatted me to ask me if im ignoring her -- all because i didnt respond to one of several emails that she sent me yesterday, an hour before i left work.
8:48 am
EvaNadine

*UGH*
8:49 am
EvaNadine

(not to mention that said email was not only to invite herself over, but also informing me i would be cooking dinner)

Good morning, dwellers in Babbleland.
8:51 am

8:51 am
MollyL

Heya Judi
8:51 am
hurshy

how about clues for the long ones? 8 and 9's?
8:52 am
flosey

the 2 9s follow ri8/50
8:52 am
flosey

ri8 is a compound word
8:52 am
MollyL

Insane words. ri 5/12 is what you use to shred a potato. Then add auto to the end, then add an e to that.
8:53 am
flosey

if it was ra, it would make more sense ! imho
8:53 am
hurshy

the endings seem to indicate that it's like, from latin or something, don't you think?
8:54 am
EvaNadine

*serenity now*
8:54 am
MollyL

They aren't compound words. They are musical terms.
8:54 am
flosey

still a compound
8:55 am
MollyL

Eva that sounds like a feminine hygiene product. : D
8:55 am
smaandmea

Hi there. Do the 9s have the same first 4 letters as ri8?
8:56 am
flosey

just add a letter, smaandmea
8:56 am
flosey

in both 9s
8:56 am
smaandmea

Thank you all - weird, weird words
8:57 am
flosey

to me they were
8:58 am
hurshy

i've just mailed my order form for a local, humanely raised turkey!
8:59 am
Judi

As opposed to... a turkey raised by wolves?
9:00 am
hurshy

i'm so pleased, because when about a week and a half ago it was suddenly suggested that i host thanksgiving after all, i was not sure if i would be in time to get one.
9:00 am
hurshy

as opposed to a factory farmed turkey. raised in cramped conditions, force fed an unnatural diet, possibly pumped full of antibiotics and/or hormones...
9:01 am
flosey

so true hurshy, you are lucky that you were able to get one
9:01 am
Judi

Free range, organic turkeys are delicious. My MIL usually gets one. Alas, I will miss out this year.
9:02 am
Habes

Morning everyone
9:02 am
flosey

morning Habes
9:02 am
hurshy

unfortunately the term "free range" has no legal meaning and "organic" can still include inhumane treatment, so, i wanted to choose carefully.
9:02 am
Judi

Gosh. This is another stinker puzzle.
9:03 am
flosey

yes it is, Judi, seems they usually are when so short
9:03 am

True again, Hurshy.

The r from the bottom row means to make richer, usually applying to air.
10:20 am

Le data entry est prone de vous donner un cas d'ennui.

10:34 am
Haz1558

Tres bon idee Ata.

10:37 am

*giggle*
10:37 am

you wouldn't do the grid either if you'd suffered what I've suffered today!
10:37 am
MollyL

You can do a Google search on that Xcelle
10:38 am

He married Jacqueline Kennedy after JFK was killed.

Xcel - look at Mollys clue at 10.35
10:39 am
FMitch

2 hours?
10:39 am
Haz1558

7 hours and 52 minutes, approximately.
10:39 am
FMitch

perhaps Haz but she is getting paid for it none the less :)
10:39 am
Atalante

1 1/2 hours. It's a *phone*!
10:40 am
Haz1558

Only an hour and a half? You can't have grasped all the complexities in that time.
10:40 am
FMitch

Did they teach you how to transfer calls or is that saved for part 2?
10:40 am
Atalante

oh yes. call transferring, call parking, call holding, call goodness knows whatting
10:41 am
FMitch

uh oh sounds like the forgot the actual how to speak to the caller *sheesh*
10:41 am
crosshair

we buy the latest gadgets to simplify our lives and in so doing make thing so complex we catch ourselves yearning for a good book by a kerosine lamp with a wireless radio playing softly in the background
10:41 am
Haz1558

Telephone manner is awfully important.
10:41 am
Atalante

we now have the same phones that they use in the fake offices on 24, apparently
10:42 am
FMitch

I spent a happy hour reading a honest-to-goodness book whilst my car was being MOT'd
10:42 am
Haz1558

Goodness. I'd be impressed if I'd ever watched 24.
10:43 am
Atalante

so would I lol
10:43 am

Was that a selling point for the system? 'They have these in a fake office'

10:46 am
Haz1558

Are you still trying to find that ra6 from the bottom? Sometimes it's best to move on and come back to a word. Or you can always look up www.morewords.com.
10:47 am
Haz1558

I kind of lost faith in Holby City after they forced a surgeon to carry out a heart transplant at gunpoint while equipped with a torch, a stanley knife and a kitchen table.
10:47 am
Atalante

ra + ***f raff + sometimes vowel
10:47 am
Atalante

goodness! I don't remember that!
10:48 am
FMitch

Neither do I, she is making it up Ata.
10:48 am
Haz1558

ra , then veer to the right, use the three letters up the right hand side of the grid, finish with y.
10:49 am
Haz1558

Okay, maybe it wasn't a heart transplant, but there was definitely open heart stuff going on and guns being waved about.
10:49 am
Atalante

she's full of exaggeration today
10:49 am
FMitch

and giving letters away with gay abandon. I don't know what has come over her!
10:49 am
Haz1558

Moi?
10:49 am
Atalante

she'll be using !!!!! next
10:50 am
FMitch

oui, tu!
10:50 am
Haz1558

I know, I can tell you're shocked. But maybe knowing that y is the sometimes vowel will be the clue to cracking ra6.
10:50 am
FMitch

IF she does that we know it is time for her meds.

"if napoleons field surgeons can do a leg amputation in 17 seconds,anything is possible lol

They cut off parts of his legs?
10:51 am

It's amazing what you can do with the inside of a loo roll and some sticky backed plastic :)

11:01 am

Maybe you should. It might set you up for the rest of the day.

4:28 pm
ardilla

they've listened to my lungs several times and they sound clear
4:28 pm
ardilla

the medic said the cough is caused by post nasal drip
4:28 pm
MollyL

How about blood tests Ardilla? Pneumonia would elevate your white cell count. Have they given you antibiotics?
4:29 pm
ardilla

be strong carlee!
4:29 pm
carleekat

i miss her so much...we did everything together
4:30 pm
MollyL

My "Mom" remedy for coughs is a hot bath, and a generous slathering of Vicks Vaporub, and then put on a soft cotton t-shirt before bed. Some people are not inclined to use Vicks though. And I have no idea if you can get it where you are.
4:30 pm
ardilla

no, he believed that the drip is from the congestion i got from the stomach bug and the dehydration caused by it
4:31 pm
carleekat

any mentholated cream will work
4:32 pm
carleekat

vicks is also my 'MOM' remedy for earaches
4:32 pm
MollyL

Carlee, take some time to process this. And then, DO NOT let this man rob you of your daughter. When I win the lottery I am going to build an island for "overly needy" people and ship them all there to deal with each other.
4:32 pm
ardilla

i just took a hot bath and am wearing my mink blanket robe...all the stores are closed...i'll try tomorrow
4:33 pm

Jellen

Could I have the stats for the lone R on the bottom row, please?
4:33 pm
MollyL

Ardilla, I have also heard people swear by rubbing Vicks on the soles of your feet before bed, to ward off night time coughing fits. Sounds weird, but there are those who say it works. Old wives tell the best tales.
4:33 pm
carleekat

or any mint...

the main thing for hypertension is aerobic exercise
7:49 pm

7:49 pm
lil*monkey

yes, it's hereditary
7:49 pm
