good morning babblers!!! and when are we going to get a nice BIG grid????
4:51 am
Dachef

the last 2 weeks we haven't gone above 150, most of the time barely scraping the 100 mark. I reckon Dr G. isn't shaking the box properly.
5:17 am
Trifioso

good morning friends. quick little number today!
5:17 am
Trifioso

sigh
5:23 am
MollyL

Not sure I get the number of small grids. The more small grids, the less people are here. Not very good for the site.
5:23 am
mummy

hello, can anyone clue the be5/18 please, that's if there is anyone out there!!!
5:23 am
Trifioso

I had said something months ago about how, eventually, dr god is sure to run out of grids, and people laughed at me and were all "no, that could never happen!" um. yeah.
5:24 am
Trifioso

and hello molly!
5:24 am
Trifioso

mummy, I don't have it yet....
5:24 am
lizmac

Mummy, biblical term.
5:24 am
Dachef

be5/18 - be + to fetch.
5:25 am
Trifioso

would anyone mind if dr god reran a grid? I am not sure I would even notice
5:25 am
MollyL

Ah, Liz beat me to it with the Biblical reference.
5:25 am
mummy

thanks dachef, fireworks. can go and get dressed now and do something with the rest of the day!
5:25 am
MollyL

Trif, I am quite sure with all the brainiacs here, that someone with a photographic memory would remember.
5:26 am
Trifioso

huzzah for mummy!!!
5:26 am
Dachef

theoretically, you can never actually 'run out' of grids, as they are generated randomly, and there are thousands of possible permutations. However, this number is not infinite and inevitably there will be a repeat of a grid sooner or later.
5:26 am
Trifioso

yes, molly, I suppose you are right
5:26 am
mummy

ty all, this is the third gri I have completed this year, something of a record for me, I have been playing for years and only ever complete once in a blue moon!
5:27 am
Trifioso

i agree, dachef, but a fair number would be useless as grids - no vowels, all one letter, no consonants, 11 qs, etc
5:38 am
MollyL

Ah, nothing like fresh squeezed orange/grapefruit juice to start your day off with a bounce.
5:46 am
lil*monkey

Trifi , I just got a kick out of your FB post LOL
5:47 am
Trifioso

thanks lil. gawd it was a right old scene, though
5:47 am
lil*monkey

Maybe she needs to watch a movie like Precious, to get a little perspective.... or Mommie Dearest
5:48 am
Trifioso

um, she's 11, with some pretty significant delays, so precious is out, but yeah, maybe mommie dearest, or angelas ashes...
5:49 am
lil*monkey

sorry, Trifi, i was kidding about the movie
5:49 am
Trifioso

no, its fine! I am kidding too. would never make anyone watch angelas ashes!
5:50 am
Trifioso

read the book, yes, watch that movie? nope
5:51 am
lil*monkey

no, it's too harsh
5:51 am
Trifioso

anyway, it was pretty funny to hear her. You have to laugh, right?
5:52 am
Trifioso

I remember crying for a fair amount of time when I was little, because my poor auntie made summer squash for dinner. I was NOT happy
5:52 am
lil*monkey

yes ! because it's so riduculous! i'm sure she will laugh too, when she's 30 or so
5:52 am
lil*monkey

i usually had a crying tantrum any night there was chipped beef for dinner
5:53 am
Trifioso

ugh! I think I still might....
5:53 am
lil*monkey

that white flour gravy is particularly disgusting to me
5:54 am
lil*monkey

have anyone in the chog read the book, "Room" ???? very strange
5:54 am
Trifioso

gads, remember when the ability to make white sauce was considered the height of culinary excellence?
5:54 am
Trifioso

no....
5:55 am
lil*monkey

i'm reading it now, it's the story of a woman who was abducted and hidden in a room for approx 6 years, the story is told from the point of view of her 5 year old son who was born "in captivity"
5:55 am
lil*monkey

it's very strange, i'm close to the end now
5:56 am
Trifioso

oh, wait, I have heard of that! yes, it is supposed to be quite challenging to read
5:56 am
zoozzoom

Emma Donoghue?
5:56 am
lil*monkey

yes, zoozo
5:56 am
Trifioso

I wonder if it was inspired by the story of that woman who was held prisoner for all those years in, uh....europe somewhere?
5:56 am
MollyL

I'm trying to stay away from creepy stuff like that right now.
5:56 am
lil*monkey

i ahven't finished it yet
5:56 am
lil*monkey

yes Molly, that's the word, it's CREEPY
5:57 am
Trifioso

oh, I just looked outside, and the sky is an amazing shade of bright pink, lovely against the black trees and white snow
5:57 am
lil*monkey

nice, Trifi! post a pic!
5:57 am
Trifioso

was just thinking - I don't think it would photograph correctly
5:58 am
MollyL

I've had enough creepy stuff go on in real life, I don't need books or movies like that, just at the moment.
5:58 am
Trifioso

the color is really pretty, but tenuous
5:58 am
lil*monkey

i agree Moly... the next book I read will be something fun
5:59 am
lil*monkey

maybe i'll re-read one of the Harry Potters
5:59 am
Trifioso

for some brain candy I can highly recommend any of the "shopaholic" books by Sophie Kinsella. they are really pretty funny
5:59 am
lil*monkey

my word for Babblers is in the chog! Hello my pe4 s
5:59 am

6:02 am

i know! after my rendez vous with littlebit, i'm driving over to my pal Woody's house to watch football at 4:30, and i'm bringing a pizza
6:03 am

oh that sucks, Trifi! poor tert
6:04 am

People who break up that way are very cold hearted.
6:04 am
Trifioso

it's the first of many, lil.....the high school dramz is well underway
6:04 am
MollyL

And chickenshit.
6:04 am
Trifioso

I am trying to be objective...he is just as young as she is, so he is not exactly smooth
6:04 am
MollyL

Lil, sounds like you have an A+ day. Have fun!
6:05 am
lil*monkey

thanks Molly! but first, I'm going jogging... in about 20 mins when it's a little lighter
6:05 am
MollyL

You are kind Trif. If I ever found out that one of my sons broke up with a girl that way, I would light into them like the Irish bitch from hell I can be about such things.
6:05 am
Trifioso

wow lil, I am tired just reading about your day!
6:06 am
Trifioso

if he was my son, I would. I am taking care of her, and hopefully his mom is lighting into him
6:06 am
lil*monkey

LOL trifi... that's just how I roll. I usually cram a lot into the weekends.

they were "going out" for over a year, so, yes, a face to face meeting would have definitely been the way to go. in middle school/high school terms, that's at least one reincarnation with the same mate
6:07 am
lil*monkey

wow that's really cold , trifi! After a year of dating, I would expect more than a text msg
6:08 am
Trifioso

yeah, well. boys are idiots, and they breed em that way
6:08 am

Breaking up via text or email is the DOWN side of the cyber generation.

How is Tunisia, Carlee?
6:50 am

i predict a grid of about 100-120
6:51 am

its....busy :) i havent checked the news...but its about time the people there do something on their own rather then having someone else do it for them
6:51 am

this is crazy for a saturday, we have to send Dr. God a calendar!

i hate these little ones...
6:53 am
rubyfoo

Tunisia is one of those "who cares" places. If the two sides kill each other....yay!
6:53 am
MollyL

Yeah about football, but I would guess the majority of players here do not watch American football.
6:53 am
zoozzoom

It is not a hard grid, Carlee..compared to other small grids.
6:54 am
carleekat

it might tho serve as example for all the other ME countries who live in similar contitions...
6:54 am
rubyfoo

we don't get American football, only soccer (which I prefer). There is the "Eddy Show" where this guy who speaks worse French than me, calls the Monday night games.
6:54 am
carleekat

no...i really dont like little grids...its like..oh ..here have a bite of this amazing cheesecake..oh..you liked it.tooo bad..no more left
6:54 am
MollyL

What I wonder is this. A bunch of small grids in a row means less people on this site. That can't be good for business.
6:55 am
rubyfoo

molly, do you think that's what it means or is it random, like the rest?
6:55 am
carleekat

the mess in iraq would never have happened if iraqis did what the tunisians did but against saddam...
6:56 am
MollyL

Could be random Ruby. But this many small ones in a row doesn't seem random to me.
6:56 am
carleekat

or..maybe it is good for business...more people come on..and try a little grid....get sucked in...then once paid...get wallopped
6:56 am
rubyfoo

I like the big ones with the in, en, re, builders
6:56 am
rubyfoo

at least I reach half!
6:56 am
carleekat

or DR god needs the servers lighter..less traffic and memory for setting up new program
6:57 am
carleekat

which is likely the actual reason
6:58 am
carleekat

we know how slow it gets during a monster grid... so many on..for so long... and huge numbers of words...
6:59 am
rubyfoo

you are probably right, carlee
7:00 am
carleekat

ok..killed the chog on that one..anyone have any good tasty meals planned for the weekend..i am so in a food rut am begging borrowing and stealing new recipes like mad
7:00 am
rubyfoo

interested in couscous, carlee? I made a brilliant one on Wednesday which we're still eating
7:01 am
MollyL

When Dr. God needs to work on the server, he's going to have to shut this place down for a while. That's the only way it works. The amount of traffic here doesn't make any difference. Of this I know, I run message boards.
7:01 am

Horrible grid today welki ....
9:12 am

considering that the vowels are one O and the rest E's .. yep, i think it might be a little stinker
9:13 am
welki

and no vowels in bottom two rows! i should fortify my coffee :)
9:14 am
scouser

In fact, to4,5 sums up quite a number of the other words.
9:15 am
scouser

re the bottom row - not many of the words reach down into it.
9:18 am

ok..new router works
9:18 am

9:26 am

I thought it was an abbreviation for swear words
9:26 am
scouser

Temple : think of how you say the name of the letter f in the plural. Then change first consonant.
9:27 am
carleekat

or a sound you might make when trying to lift something obscenely too heavy to lift
9:27 am

Those of you who did physics at school might remember it as initials. I did.

11:13 am

hi wild

Dr God should add this to his Babble program: Weekend grids must be > 150 words.
11:13 am
wildcat17

hi
11:13 am
jmcnrick

i think that is a good idea!
11:14 am
wildcat17

I'll 2nd that
11:14 am
wildcat17

and ban words like bo6
11:14 am
jmcnrick

but the problem is the weekend doesn't exactly overlap the same in all parts of the grid
11:14 am
Scrabbler

Also: no grid can be < 100 words.
11:14 am
wildcat17

it'll be close enough
11:14 am
Scrabbler

Hm, boppee doesn't work.
11:14 am

11:29 am
jmcnrick

11:29 am
jmcnrick

oh okay that is relatively new then?
11:29 am
wildcat17

no it's an interstate so I assume it's been there since the system was built in the 50s
11:29 am
jmcnrick

last time i tried to drive directly was about 15 years ago though
11:30 am
wildcat17

must've been during the height of the construction to widen it
11:30 am
jmcnrick

well there you go -- rarely drove between austin and dallas since i lived in houston
11:31 am
jmcnrick

but when my husband died i took my son down to texas and we spent 2 weeks driving around
11:31 am
wildcat17

that would explain it
11:31 am
jmcnrick

gosh closer to 20 years ago now
11:31 am

11:34 am
jmcnrick

scrabs are you bunnies on bunspace?
11:34 am
MollyL

I object to em4/8. I strenuously object. It's an abbreviation.
11:34 am
Mary

ty Scrabbler, weird word
11:34 am
Scrabbler

Molly, TY for reminding me of em4. I have seen it here before.
11:34 am
wildcat17

that's the only word you're objecting to?
11:35 am
jmcnrick

what is it an abbreviation for?
11:35 am
Scrabbler

It is a unit of measurement, like a tesla, amp, erg, joule
11:35 am
jmcnrick

personally i object to bo6
11:35 am
wildcat17

electromagnetic frequency I think
11:35 am
Scrabbler

ElectroMagnetic Force
11:35 am
MollyL

No, not the only one. Just the one I'm objecting to at the moment.
11:35 am
Scrabbler

Or frequency or field???
11:35 am
Scrabbler

Any sm words?
11:36 am

bunspace.com
11:40 am
wildcat17

same as the st4 before it but extend with another consonant and vowel
11:40 am
fuzzybunny

it is a rather retro suit
11:40 am
jmcnrick

double letters cw
11:41 am
frogface

if anyone is interested the em4 is officially defined as not only an abbreviation but the first three letters are capitals and the last isnt - so it is not an actual word but either an abbreviation or an acronym. I thank you xxx
11:41 am
jmcnrick

those of us who are rotund need more coverage
11:41 am
Scrabbler

JM, TY for telling me about Bunspace. I just registered and will await an e-mail so I can activate my account. Then I will get my 4 bunnies on there.

Scrabbler

My oldest, tiniest bunny, Sebastian, almost 8 1/2, jumped in bed with me nightly until 13 mo ago. I suspect arthritis may be the issue although he runs around like a nut still.
11:47 am
jmcnrick

I will po** something on my profile sometime in september if not before
11:47 am
jmcnrick

sleep wild?
11:47 am
cwestexan

11:47 am
fuzzybunny

You could make him a ramp to jump up to get on the bed, I had to do that for an old cat of mine
11:47 am
wildcat17

that's a tempting idea jmc
11:48 am
jmcnrick

my friends put a step stool next to the bed so the jump was not as high-- like a step to the bed
11:48 am
Scrabbler

I have considered that, fuzzy. I miss having him near me. I used to wake up in the night and find him next to my head.
11:48 am
jmcnrick

that is what i would do if i didn't have work for the year end stuff that i need to do
11:48 am
fuzzybunny

7:00 pm
Mom

isn't that something, Nan!
7:01 pm
Mom

Oh Molly, I am attempting to get organized
7:01 pm
EvaNadine

i get into that mentality whenever i move.
id rather throw things out than pack them up, take them somewhere else, unpack them, and find a place to put them.
7:01 pm
Mom

but each time I get a handle on it, life gets in the way
7:02 pm
MollyL

I have issues with bo6 being a "real" word. Not as many issues as I have with em 4/8 though.
7:02 pm
Mom

Eva, I hope you don't want to move often
7:03 pm
MollyL

The Salvation Army is my best friend when I move.
7:03 pm
Mom

Goodwill is mine and our library
7:04 pm
EvaNadine

i have moved 3 times in the last 4 years.
we are signing a new 1-year lease at this place, and hopefully after that we will be buying something + not moving for a while after that!
7:04 pm
EvaNadine

mom, im a goodwill fan too.
salvation army gives money to anti-gay groups, and i have a problem with that.
7:04 pm
MollyL

Damn Eva. It's hardly worth unpacking when you move that much.
7:05 pm
Mom

Our Salvation Army doesn't take donations here, except money
7:05 pm
Mom

you will be in place for at least a year then
7:05 pm
MollyL

I didn't know that about The Salvation Army.
7:06 pm
EvaNadine

i agree molly. one of those moves was unplanned -- i had just moved in with chris + a few months later, the landlord decided to sell the house. less than 6 months and i was moving again!
7:07 pm
MollyL

That happened in the last two rentals I was in (landlord decided to sell). After the second time, I bought my condo.

When we moved 2 years ago, the Commonwealth paid to have movers pack us and unpack us. What a blessing that was
7:09 pm
Mom

We lost our house to a highway project.
7:09 pm
MollyL

If I'm not being too nosey Eva, how come you don't live in the house you own?
7:11 pm
EvaNadine

its all the way out in crofton. i work in DC and hubby works in bethesda. he really doesnt wanna move out to crofton, and frankly, i really love this area!
7:12 pm
MollyL

I don't blame you. I am not a "long commuter".
7:13 pm
EvaNadine

my commute is still an hour door-to-door. but its a much more pleasant hour than riding the green line. the people on the green line are... questionable.
7:13 pm
Mom

could you sell the house in Crofton?
7:14 pm
EvaNadine

mom, yes, i could. but i rent it out and cover my expenses, so its not something i need to do yet.
if we decide selling the house is something we need to do for a deposit on a house, then we will do that.
7:15 pm
Mom

so that will be an option when it comes time to look for a house then
7:16 pm
EvaNadine

yup. not necessary, but an option!
7:16 pm
Mom

good deal
7:17 pm
Mom

If I can't be of any more help, I'll go get a bath and call it a night
7:17 pm
