good morning. Just a quick update. I'm on my way to the hospital where husband is being treated for pneumonia with oxygen and antibiotics by IV. He is lucky that he didn't break any bones when he fell, but looks like he was at the losing end of a prize fight.

3:26 am

is am relieved that he is in hospital as I really couldn't care for him here. When he fell, I couldn't do more than comfort him, call emergency, sop up blod and keep him warm. I couldn't even get him in a sitting position!

Morning Brooke
5:51 am

Lots of good letters in the grid, but not enough vowels, apparently! Morning Molly!
5:53 am
MollyL
Five measly vowels
5:53 am
Brookie
Luckily I have lots of other stuff to do today, so perhaps a small grid is good (for me at least, maybe not for other babblers).
6:03 am
MollyL
The plan was "get up, work on the grid, fix breakfast". Now the plan is "finish the grid and go back to bed."
6:04 am
Brookie
Breakfast at some point, though, right? Anything for hungry fellow babblers? My Zone bar isn't doing the trick, but I'm too lazy to actually make something.
6:05 am
welki
early day for me .. up at 4 to have coffee and send other half on his way on biz trip. was hoping for a HUGE grid today (cold and snowy, no need to leave the house) .. and here i am with two left at 5:06
6:05 am
Brookie
Looks like you'll be giving clues for the rest of the day, welki!
6:06 am
MollyL
It would be cool if Babble offered "easy, moderate, and advanced". As in, three grids to choose from.
6:07 am
Brookie
That will be the new version of Babble... Mabble (Molly + Babble).
6:07 am
welki
or if we could have access to prior grids .. play them, no need to enter stats (unless option to do so on grids we've never played before)
6:07 am
welki
i know they're online, but you can
6:07 am
welki
type the words in, you'd have to word list on paper
6:07 am
Brookie
Well, my two year old just woke up, so time to attend to his agenda.
6:08 am

enjoy the day, brookie .. hugs for the babe (they're wonderful at two-and-just-woken-up)

Have a great day, Molly and welki, and let me know what else you come up with to modify Babble!

WTG, LeslieAnn!
3:30 pm
wht
There is an re5 with a vowel at the end
3:31 pm
LeslieAnn
ohhh you are talking about the first row R - i thought you meant an R word that had five letters in it
3:31 pm
Kangy100
oh sorry
3:31 pm
wht
You will get used to it Kangy. It is a little tricky to talk about a word without actually mentioning the word
3:33 pm
LeslieAnn
the general gist, kangy, is to list a word like pl 4/5 - means a word that starts with pl, is four letters long and worth five points.
3:33 pm
wht
Kangy, have you been introduced to the penalty box, where we send people who type grid words in the chog? I have stocked it this afternoon with fresh, hot brownies.
3:33 pm
Kangy100
how are you able to tell how many letters and points their worth?
3:33 pm
LeslieAnn
i may have to type some words into the chat log then
3:34 pm
Kangy100
ya sorry, typed in the wrong box?
3:34 pm
wht
We all do it from time to time Kangy.
3:34 pm
wvteach
happens to all of us
3:34 pm
LeslieAnn
the "help" icon above the chat log here explains - but basically a four-letter word is just the points on the board, a five-letter word is x2, six-letter word is x3 etc.
3:35 pm
LeslieAnn
also, under the grid, the "lickety's babble clues" link will give you a list of all the words' first and second letters
3:35 pm
zoozzoom
Ok i need to go..take care, All .( * .

I found another Enable anomaly: why can we have la4/4 but not abdos?
4:52 pm
scouser
and gr4/6 is not in the dictionary. Have we got a Babblers word for such words?
4:53 pm
msideb01
scouse, we're pleased to call them Babblets... and there are plenty more where that came from!
4:55 pm
scouser
ty msideb01
4:57 pm
scouser
msideb01 - which tropical low was that one in your icon?
4:58 pm
msideb01
that was Hurricane Earl when it was a Cat 5, I think three days or so before (almost) landfall in North Carolina
5:00 pm
msideb01
Yeah, I know. Dodged a bullet with that storm... scored some mean hurricane surf waves though, haha
5:00 pm
scouser
I studied Oceanography with the Open University. It only takes one degree higher sea surface temp to cause a lot more hurricanes esp. in N. Hemisphere
5:01 pm
scouser
Ah - and now we have La Nina too! does that make better waves on west coast?
5:02 pm
msideb01
It's really fascinating stuff... as a surfer, meteorology and oceanography are like my number one hobby. With last year's El Nino, the Atlantic tropics were something like 1.5 degrees higher than average
5:04 pm
scouser
in a way we benefit from El Nino in UK cos the Gulf Stream keeps going. I worry about it ceasing, especially in winter.
5:05 pm
msideb01
True, if the thermohaline cycle with the Gulf Stream stops, we're all up shit creek
5:07 pm
msideb01
for us in the Northeast US, though, La Nina has either caused storms to shoot across New England fast and up north or they've rapidly intensified, dumped a lot of snow, and disappeared quickly
5:07 pm
msideb01
neither situation provides much time for sustained fetch in the Atlantic to generate waves, sadly... haha
5:08 pm
scouser
Well, we will all be like Norway. My friends just went to Spitsbergen and the Arctic Ocean was like a millpond dead calm - weird. If that stops being cold what happens to the food chain?
5:09 pm
scouser
I remember some feisty calculations regarding fetch reach and wave-height and energy levels.
5:10 pm
msideb01
Well even a degree or two rise in average ocean temp would be disastrous for the marine environment
5:11 pm
msideb01
ENSO cycles like El Nino and whatnot are fine because they average out eventually, but if the average increases, bad things start happening
5:12 pm
scouser
All depends on how rapid the changes are: short-lived creatures can adapt quickly. ............. we have written all this and not one word from the grid! I shall have to go soon. Thanks for chat.
5:13 pm
msideb01
haha, of course... tata

6:55 pm

seti is pinging signals inbto space
6:56 pm
jmcnrick
oh that is not so interesting to me
6:56 pm
uusue2
seti at home was the original "at home" crowdsourced data analysis - looking at data from the Arecibo radio telescope for evidence of artificial signals
6:56 pm
crosshair
looking for ET lol
6:57 pm
crosshair
ince we cure cancer,ill look for et again
6:57 pm

never sent any signals out, though, except when the telescope first turned on.
6:57 pm
crosshair
i got 2 signals out,but no reply:)
6:57 pm

I agree; when I did seti at home the other "at home' options didn't exist yet

Hey there, jmcnrick
7:30 pm
jmcnrick
hi peach
7:30 pm
welki
lynxx, we have things called 'block heaters' installed in our vehicles .. we plug them in to keep the oil in our engines from getting too thick (helps warm up the car)
7:31 pm
gapeach1066@yaho
That is a great idea, welki.
7:32 pm
welki
they're standard equipment in vehicles up here
7:32 pm
lynxxx
It must cost a LOT extra just to survive in snow conditions - expenses we woudn't even dream of
7:33 pm
welki
i suppose that it's a wash, lynxx ... costs a ton to cool down a house, too .. and car air conditioning cuts down on gas mileage
7:33 pm
jmcnrick
but you save a fortune in air conditioning
7:33 pm
welki
hehehe .. but you probably save on clothing :)
7:33 pm
welki
i can't handle the heat anymore and use a/c when the temps get warm
7:34 pm
welki
jmc told me that if i ever visit with her, i can sleep in the room with the air conditioner :)
7:34 pm
jmcnrick
:-) no a/c in my room
7:35 pm
lynxxx
No a/c here, we just have a few fans. Happily this is only our 3rd hot day this Summer - and there is usually only a half dozen really hot ones
7:35 pm
welki
will be in new jersey in may and have told the kids that we're staying in a hotel for that reason
7:35 pm
jmcnrick
there are only 5 nights that i find hot most years and i know how to cope since i was raised in Texas prior to A/c
7:35 pm
jmcnrick
i have ceiling fans
7:36 pm
welki
which five?
7:36 pm
jmcnrick
lol they vary but mostly in early july contrary to what people think
7:37 pm
welki
i guess that, if i hadn't moved north, i'd handle the heat better. survived until i moved here during hot nyc summers
7:37 pm
welki
who am i kidding. i hated the heat then, too *lol*
7:38 pm
welki
well, here i am solo for the next few days, guess i'd better scrounge up something for supper before it gets too late. bye for now
7:38 pm
lynxxx
why the move to Canada? just the lure of the fishing?
7:38 pm
jmcnrick
skip supper and get skinny
7:39 pm
welki
i'd have to skip more than supper
7:39 pm
welki
the lure of a canadian man, lynxxx :)
7:39 pm
jmcnrick
:-) got to start somewhere
7:39 pm
welki
or .. the allure :)
7:39 pm
lynxxx
wow - blushing here, lol
7:40 pm
jmcnrick
blushing??
7:40 pm
lynxxx
Canadians DO see very nice - very similar in attitude to Australians actually - same sense of humour
7:41 pm
lynxxx
the thought of Weki casting all aside and rushing off after her Canadian man
7:42 pm
lynxxx
finished jmc?
7:42 pm
jmcnrick

Crossy - the word 'gridge' does actually exist in the Urban Dictionary (aka how people speak when anyone born before 1989 have no idea what they are talking about) - it means 'A sarcastic expression with the same meaning as "thanks for nothing". Usually preceded by a dramatic sigh or pause.'

jilli; that would definitely make this day that much sweeter to you; but it's also so sad that he'd never shared that with you before.....

Now he says he'll do it again, next visit. I gave him a book I've had for years -- the Fireside Book of Folk Songs -- and he had a great time with it, transposing from piano music to guitar.

Oh Luwanda, I didn't mean to put your great news in the shade! It's so exciting!

the help page right above chat here is helpful; but I also tell newbies to check under the Tile Stats grid for the "friends of Babble" sites. Try using "AngelSong's Babble Page" there for LOTS of help. And when people talk about using a list; they usually mean "Lickety's Babble Clues" there
11:41 pm

yeah. I have 57 of them
