when you've had a wall vac for over 40 years, you don't pay much attention to vacuum cleaner ads
12:39 am

Thanks much, helen.....looking now.
1:11 am
Lizlin
Hi again :)
1:12 am
Lizlin
Peach, try ec + a make of vacuum cleaner
1:13 am
Lizlin
If you highlight what Dee wrote about the insect and put it into your search engine, it also comes up with the word.
1:14 am
gapeach
I don't know how to do that, Liz.....but will try....thannks
1:14 am
helensgirlkid
I had not realized that we could come up with so many words based on the same precise root derivative, without once using the word for a practitioner of the ecd* arts!
1:15 am
Lizlin
Highlight what Dee wrote, then copy and paste it into your search engine.
1:15 am
Lizlin
Or the white bar at the top of the page where the www. addresses appear.
1:16 am
Lizlin
ec + rhymes with a word for the small cubes used for gaming (pl)
1:17 am
helensgirlkid
I think maybe she's off Goggling!
1:18 am
Lizlin
So difficult to know how to clue it.
1:18 am
Lizlin
Peach - jbp gave a HUGE clue at 12.36!
1:18 am
helensgirlkid
And yet once you're onto it - there's a treasure trove of words.
1:19 am
Lizlin
Such weird words though!
1:19 am
Lizlin
But totally logical.
1:20 am
helensgirlkid
That's true enough. I'm about to conk out, I'd bettter go to bed. Wishing all luck, esp. you and gapeach.
1:20 am
Lizlin
Sleep well :)
1:21 am
gapeach
Thank you, helen. Sweet dreams.
1:22 am
Lizlin
Peach did you see jbp's clue at 12.36?
1:24 am
gapeach
Yes, I did, Liz. I went online and found a word for the sheddiing of skin ....only 6 letters though.
1:24 am
Lizlin
If you add the word that jbp wrote to the ec, you'll have one of the ec 7s
1:25 am
grannyrose
cooee and g'day from me
1:25 am
gapeach
Oh, thanks so much, Liz.
1:25 am

Don't do things by halves, do you?

I'd like to see you healthy and not in pain!
1:28 am

1:28 am

Maybe some rest is in order granny
1:29 am

who for, ruru? me or don?
1:29 am
rururocks
Both of you
1:30 am
grannyrose
darn....well that's torn it for tonight, then. i had such plans....
1:30 am
Lizlin
A little bit of whispering can lead a long way ...
1:31 am
rururocks
You both have been sick a lot..maybe you are pushing yourselves too hard
1:31 am
Lizlin
And Don will be so happy to hear you again, when you have your voice back!
1:31 am
Lizlin
Good point, Ru.
1:31 am
grannyrose
you are probably quite correct, ruru. we have been pushing hard for a long time. butts on the ground, i guess.
1:32 am

Helen, if you are still here.....I HAVE THEM ALL.

1:33 am

one thing for sure. once i have fully recovered from this lot of surgery, i will be very seriously considering retiring. i have had enough.
1:33 am
Lizlin
I suspect new to most people.
1:33 am
Lizlin
I can certainly recommend retirement - one of the best things I ever did!
1:35 am

If only babble paid a salary ....
1:36 am

oh, the latest in the saga of fanf and the MIL's will.
1:38 am
Lizlin
Ooooh! Spill the dirt!
1:38 am
rururocks
What is that ?
1:38 am
grannyrose
apparently fang has gone out and bought herself a new spa, on finance, because she would have the money to pay it off before any interest due.
1:39 am
grannyrose
of, course, she has dragged her silly heels, and the money still hasn't come through
1:39 am
Lizlin
And have the repayments started?
1:40 am
grannyrose
she rang don frantic, the other day, we have to sign the probate form she says. so don gets on his bike, rides down, and finds out it's the banking form he has to sign.
1:40 am
Lizlin
What is with her?
1:40 am
grannyrose
and he doesn't have the banking details with him. and yes, THE REPAYMENTS HAVE STARTED. it is soooo ironic.
1:41 am
Lizlin
Poor Don - is he letting it get to him?
1:41 am
grannyrose
don't think so. he is too bemused by her antics.
1:42 am
Lizlin
Bemused is good - stressed not good.
1:43 am
flosey
does anyone have a clue for de7 please? my last word
1:43 am
grannyrose
with the way interest rates are, she will have spent 25% of her inheritance before she gets it.
1:43 am
Lizlin
Sorry, Flosey - don't have it yet.
1:43 am
rururocks
De plus a little flosey...

hmph. well, it's just warm and dandy here in the pb. think I'll stay for awhile
5:29 am
crosshair
i will have a nice pot of tea ready soon for the pb anyways
5:31 am
jwr
uh oh. Is that the milky British kind? Really. You shouldn't! ... After all, you're the one who needs the warm up.
5:32 am
crosshair
no, not milky. i use only Ceylon Orange Pekoe and i brew it strong enough so you will have to arm wrestle it for the teaspoon
5:32 am
crosshair
and served is a thick mug, not a dainty tea cup. this is brio tea lol
5:33 am
jwr
Ahh, that's perfect. But back to you, out there on the frozen tundra: did you leave the hot water faucet running just a little?
5:33 am
jwr
Just remembering 20 below when I lived in Colorado.
5:33 am
crosshair
tea that, if you decide you do not wish to drink any more, you can use the remainder to clean the chrome rims on your car with it
5:34 am
crosshair
we have well insulated pipes here, but i have had places where you do have to leave the tap running just a bit in these temps, or else
5:35 am
jwr
You do that to gentle Orange Pekoe? How cruel. I suppose it's to go with the cement-textured oatmeal??
5:36 am
crosshair
yers ago, we used to have a place up north, and our primary source of heat was a central wood stove. it was the same thing every morning, everyone awake but nobody wanting to be the first to get up because the first person to get up have to get the fire going again from the coals and that floor was ice cold!
5:37 am
crosshair
you have not lived till you have to, after getting the fire going , break a scrim of ice off the water in the toilet bowl so you can have a pee
5:38 am
jwr
Not on my toi... uh .... bucket list, crossy
5:38 am
crosshair
crossy does not do oatmeal. oats are for horses:)
5:39 am

at least till the doctor cuts me off all the other breakfast foods that i like
5:42 am
crosshair
anyways, time for crossy to hit the shower and hose down this mass of muscle, brb
5:44 am
jwr
What? You listen to your doctor? -- hey, these cross-conversations are making my head swim. Or maybe it's the tea. Either way, afraid I've gotta go back to work. Sending you a Japanese study wrap: it's like a "mummy" type sleeping bag or a big old gunny sack, made of eiderdown, open at the head. with eleastic sleeves that close at the wrist. You come steaming hot from a superheated bath into the bag, sit at your desk, and study away. Or Babble. ... me gotta go too bye
5:54 am
crosshair
crossy is back. Japanese " study wrap" ?? i must google this one. Sounds like something i should get for my better half. She is not a winter type of person :(
5:56 am

7:43 am

Carrots, apples, raisins, coconut, pineapple and pecans. They are awesome.
7:44 am

It's a recipe I save for special occasions and snowy days.

that is just an awesome idea, wish i had seen that. although my firend scoffs at the commercial, new orleans version of mardi gras in favor of the traditional rural festival.
9:27 am

Now, a sequined lobster wearing a beaded dress would REALLY be original.

Also, don't forget to let me know what your cat is doing, where it is curled up or if it is walking all over your keyboard. Although the &%#$(#)! is kind of a dead giveaway for that.

5:47 pm
72 Temple Owl

5:47 pm
Lizlin
Well, that was this morning - might've peeked at the list a bit last night!
5:48 pm
72 Temple Owl
and i LOVE the mask! I need to get one for saturday
5:48 pm
MLFAN17
i have the ta 5/12 a mexican food plural am i missing one before that? i cant tell by the list exactly?
5:49 pm
72 Temple Owl
milfan: if you are using lickety you HAVE to be ablle to tell that.
5:49 pm
Lizlin
2 x ta 5/12 before that - I have one, with a different vowel ending and I'm missing one!
5:49 pm
MollyL
Lickety's list shows 2 ta5/12 words before the mexican food
5:49 pm
72 Temple Owl
perhaps you are not using it correctly? or inputting directly into the list?
5:49 pm
MLFAN17
lol lizwe will find them wont we?:)
5:49 pm
MLFAN17
i know that molly
5:49 pm
MLFAN17
i am flipping back and forth
5:50 pm
72 Temple Owl
may i suggest copying your word list and pasting it into lickety?
5:53 pm
MLFAN17
thke words dont go into lickety anyway whe i type them in when i find them in the grid
5:54 pm
Lizlin
Mine also don't go in automatically - I copy / paste. Update every so often!
5:55 pm
72 Temple Owl
yes liz, that is the way. that tells you exsactly where any one word is in realtion the other
5:56 pm
MLFAN17
liz i have used different browsers and have never been able to get them to go in automatically even when i have had the list on the same page as the grid
5:56 pm
Lizlin
Certainly does!
5:56 pm
MLFAN17
how do you copy paste from one to the other?
5:56 pm
MLFAN17
i know how to copy paste generally speaking
5:57 pm
Lizlin
That's weird mlf - someone explained to me about bulk add in lickety early on when I joined babble.
5:57 pm
MLFAN17
liz same here
5:58 pm
MLFAN17
this si why i have trouble keeping track if the list were on same page which i dont have and have had t before and they would go in it would be easier
5:58 pm
MollyL
Lickety explains it pretty well on his page too.
5:58 pm
Lizlin
Tough for you!
5:58 pm
MLFAN17
liz tell me about it
5:58 pm
Lizlin
That was meant to sound sympathetic - but I don't think it did :(
5:59 pm
MLFAN17
i understood thanks lizi i appreciate it very much
6:00 pm
Lizlin
Fireworks!
6:00 pm
MLFAN17
congrats liz
6:00 pm
MollyL
Well done, naughty cluer : P
6:01 pm
Lizlin
But perhaps naughty clues are better than no clues!
6:01 pm
MollyL
Oh, they are better all the way around : D
6:01 pm
MLFAN17
i agree liz
6:01 pm
Lizlin
No one ever told me any rules to cluing!
6:02 pm
MollyL
Trust me, there are no rules here.
6:02 pm
72 Temple Owl
well there used to be but it seems they are no longer in force. naughty clues were never prohibited, though.
6:02 pm
Lizlin
Time to head off and make some granola! Except the thought of turning on the oven is not appealing!
6:03 pm
72 Temple Owl
i think they were. most times, encouraged.
6:03 pm
MLFAN17
it used to be that before 2am ie an hour after flip we could not ask for clues
6:03 pm
MollyL
What rules TO? (Serious question)
6:03 pm
Lizlin
Most people don't clue that early on - yesterday was an exception with that ec run of words.
6:03 pm
72 Temple Owl
it used to be that no one asked for clues unless it was half an hour before the flip and they had exhausted all other means.
6:04 pm
72 Temple Owl
and not everyone finished.
6:04 pm
MollyL
Oh come on. People clue at the flip all the time.
6:04 pm
MLFAN17
liz i can imagine
6:04 pm
MLFAN17
molly but it didnt used to be that way
6:04 pm
72 Temple Owl
yes. yes they do.
6:04 pm
Lizlin
I think more stats than clues are given
6:05 pm
MLFAN17
for a while i didnt know of any means and ii had the list and board at the same time
6:05 pm
MollyL
Wow, no clues until half hour before the flip? That would be nice.
6:05 pm
72 Temple Owl
i dont understand flip culture. if i happen to be on then i hide chat.
6:05 pm
MLFAN17
liz probably more so lately yes
6:05 pm
Lizlin
I think I'd just list much earlier then!
6:05 pm
Lizlin
Flip's in the afternoon here - I either look or don't!
6:06 pm
MLFAN17
i dont know what flip culture is either
6:06 pm
MollyL
Flip time seems to have become very competitive. Who can find the words first and post about them. Not my idea of challenging in terms of playing this game.
6:06 pm
72 Temple Owl
molly: it was a real badge of honor to finish. i remember askiing the old timers how could you possibly know that word? they told me I would as well with time. and that happened.
6:06 pm
Lizlin
But then compared to you lot, I'm a real newbie here!
6:06 pm
72 Temple Owl
i was so happy the first time i did!
6:06 pm
MLFAN17
molly i love to call them out at flip its exciting
6:07 pm
Lizlin
True TO! Some of the babblets now are just obvious -words I really didn't know!
6:07 pm
MLFAN17
me too owl
6:07 pm
72 Temple Owl
and pardon me for asking this, again, molly...
6:10 pm
Lizlin
OK time to get the day properly started! Have a good evening all and feel better soon TO.
6:11 pm
MLFAN17
bye liz and thank you:)
6:11 pm
MLFAN17
bye liz and thank you:)
6:11 pm
Lizlin
did you get that other ta 5/12?
6:12 pm
MollyL
So many new players have no idea what a "babblet" is. So cluing a word "common babblet" doesn't help them a lot.
6:12 pm
MLFAN17
i have two ta 5/12's at the moment

We started out our marriage believing that we could keep the cats out of our bedroom. They body slammed the door all night until we finally relented. After about a month my poor dear husband developed a tolerance.

Goodbye lbdawger! I will see you tomorrow in the chat log
9:51 pm
Nef
hi/bye, lbd! Hi phand and Min. I thought everyone left; so I was checking back in chog
9:52 pm
Minveryork
Hello Nef! How are you doing today? Welcome to the chog.
9:52 pm
Nef
I'm doing fine, Min. How are you doing these days?
9:53 pm
Minveryork
I'm happy that the storm forecasted for today stayed south
9:54 pm
phandmd
I am gonna sign off now as well. hagn all.
9:54 pm
RoundBarn
I'm here, Nef--just passed half way and that's my usual goal. Book: will finish proofing bk 7 tmr, end of Vol 3, but still lots of loose ends for vol 3. Jeremy's calling at 8 tmr morning, to continue checking all the mistakes we've found. So Babble is a break and relaxation. Saw all the ec clues early this a.m. and ow late, but they beat me. How are you?
9:54 pm
Nef
Did you get a snow day; or didn't they do that last night (called off school in preparation for the storm)?
9:56 pm
penquis
sorry...i got distracted...heading to bed...g'nite all....
9:56 pm
RoundBarn
the snow didn't amount to much, steets cleared, nothing called off--EXCEPT the Cj hi Poles have mahaged a state holiday so all the schools were closed AGAIN, this time for Kasimer Pulaski day. I don't know how we clelbrate it--I should ask the Poles. I think he was a hero.
9:56 pm
Nef
I'm doing fine, RB. Took DH to the neurologist today for his usual 3 month follow-up; he will be having more stuff (testing, therapies, and possibly a new med or 2) in the near future. Darn MS>
9:58 pm
Nef
Who the heck is Kasimer Pulaski? (I'll Google him; I've never heard of him before though)
9:59 pm
RoundBarn
I'll sign off now that I've seen you, Neg, and try to find where in the book(s) I have Pat breaking her bow obver Jo's head--three times (in the book, not the bow that was once.) Some memories stick in everybody;s minds.
10:00 pm
RoundBarn
Pat thinks maybe Jo broke it over her head, but I said no--you sent me your diary long ago, and you were the one. In a fit of Pique. I don't know who Kasimer Pulaski is. They should all stay in school and learn about him--Illinois kids have mised so much school. Wis kids, too.
10:01 pm
Nef
Take some breaks when you can, RB. You deserve it! (And it seems that Kasimer Pulaski was a US revolutionary war hero. I do not recall ever hearing of him though
10:02 pm
Nef
SUpposedly, he's "the father of the American cavalry".
10:02 pm
RoundBarn
Chicago Poles are pretty persuasive. Or were, when they got the state holiday passed. We take off Lincoln's actual birthday, too. Favorite son.
10:03 pm
Nef
Wow! Between holidays like that and weather days; how do the kids learn anything any more? ;-)
10:06 pm
RoundBarn
they have to stay later in June. I THINK THE TEADHERS MIGHT LIKE IT IF THEY CAME AN EXTRA sATURDAY OR TWO--MAKE UP SNOW DAYS.
10:08 pm
RoundBarn
I'm going to poink now like /crossy does, after taking to you, dear nef. Get ready for Jermy calling at dawn. I am so tired of inverted commas. But we have to net them all. Too bad there's not a market for them, and misplace semi colons, etc. goodnight, and poink.
10:08 pm
Nef
I bet they would prefer that too. By June; everyone just is too antsy to study and they want out of school ASAP
10:08 pm
Nef
okay, Good night, RB!
10:12 pm

10:41 pm
Nef
hi again. I'm not sure why our grandson was still awake; but as soon as I lay down and sang a lullaby, he fell sound asleep! (Maybe he was protecting his ears from my singing!)
10:51 pm
Minveryork
Hello Nef! That is the great thing about grandkids, they do not care how you sing.
10:53 pm
Nef
Very true, Min. He thinks I'm "very pretty", very old, and he loves my singing! (I mean, I've gotta love him for that! 2 out of 3 is pretty good!
