Apologies to any babble solicitors, who are lovely, I'm sure!
1:35 am

12:59 pm
sciencegeek
I was playing on the phone and it is difficult. Cannot open the clues.

RoundBarn
nef I'll know where the conf is , I jave it on the computer--just haven't studied it, just been thinking of stuff for my booth. I have a life size cut out of marilyn monrow that might attract more attention than a milk bottle or ear of corn (or a round barn)
2:00 pm
Nef
think of ka bl**** (meaning explosion --in the UK I guess)
2:00 pm
cybernan
only thing I can think of is kaboom
2:01 pm
Nef
RoundBarn, the conference is for K-12 educators? How would Marilyn tie in to it?
2:01 pm
Nef
rhymes with huey, dewey and lo**** also
2:02 pm
RoundBarn
she wouldn't (good teeth?) but she'd bring the educators to the booth to see why she's there and then we have 'em. (Venus fly-trap.)
2:02 pm
cybernan
ty again - tough grid
2:03 pm
Nef
I've aslways thought that Round barns are so distinctive, if you have something like that And Marilyn>>>>
2:03 pm
Nef
I have 11 words left, cyber. Even my darn monkeys are worn out on this.
2:04 pm
RoundBarn
I better quit making jokes (talking a lot of h**** and get to work.) Oh, there you are. I'm making jokes. We'll have a huge round barn maybe make the booth a round barn? Anyway it's not just any round barn, it's our round barn.
2:05 pm
cybernan
have nbt, nbs now, but still 26 to go
2:05 pm
RoundBarn
so Marilyn is not just any pretty cut-out. We can put a milk bottle in her hand.
2:06 pm
Nef

2:07 pm
Nef

2:08 pm

2:12 pm
Nef
now she's watching a cyote hunt. I wonder if she'll try to knock the TV over (it's a skinny screen). Yep; she pawed at it now
2:12 pm
cybernan
I'm convinced that this grid was conceived by someone who lost the spelling bee
2:13 pm
Nef
(this is a Nature program about Yellowstone)
2:13 pm
72 Temple Owl
they seem to like watcing predators. seems to be the motion that captures their attention
2:13 pm

2:14 pm
72 Temple Owl
eyes are closing. nap time
2:15 pm

2:16 pm
Nef
Our cat was declawed when very young. She's not interested in the fish in our tank; but hates our dog; she's fascinated watching the woodpeckers but no other birds on our feeders; and ignores the squirrels but watches the rabbits (through the windows) the same way she's watching the TV right now
