Rainiqui

You're welcome !

12:55 am

Rainiqui

soul

12:56 am

cybernan

must be very close to the re 8 then -- but only howling work I can think of is moan and that doesn't work so off to bed

12:58 am

Rainiqui

Nan - it's a sound you might not hear unless you have female Arabic neighbours like I do !

1:00 am

moolingwa

ends in the same ending as a certain cooking utensil that you use with eggs

1:01 am

moolingwa

it sounds similar to the repeating cry or shout, but spelled differently

1:02 am

moolingwa

la7/8 too btw

1:02 am

moolingwa

don't believe no7 was called

1:02 am

moolingwa

and perhaps po8 was missed

Rainiqui

oops, I did get that spelling wrong,mmea maximaq culpa, lol

moolingwa

1:24 am

grannyrose

lolll broll. has anyone told you your brain works in a very convoluted way? only you would see that...

1:27 am

broll

not really - am looking for an extension for a po 8, and there it was

1:27 am

grannyrose

you constantly amaze me.

1:27 am

broll

I should say, to make a po8

1:30 am

broll

fyi - the word before does not extend

1:30 am

grannyrose

ta honey

1:35 am

grannyrose

i was going po5/16 trying to extend that one...loll

1:39 am

grannyrose

whoot !! found all the r's...

1:40 am

broll

yay!

1:46 am

grannyrose

ugh. my last word was so obvious i missed it on my first run through. lovely grid. had a ball

1:50 am

broll

I hate it when I miss plurals and 4-letter words!

1:53 am

grannyrose

ikr ?? so annoying. but so babble... loll probably because one's eyes are dating all over looking for words.

1:54 am

grannyrose

dating ?? DARTING...

1:55 am

broll

I do it a lot - just found an 8 that's a plural.

2:03 am

grannyrose

news on... fires mostly under control, now we are dealing with wild thunderstorms with hail the size of golf balls.don't misunderstand some bushfires still raging further north.

2:04 am

grannyrose

so now we have floods. most farmers loving it. their dams are full for the first time in years.

2:07 am

broll

Are you close to the fires? I feel so badly for everyone there, and especially all the wildlife, some of which will probably never recover. Luckily,I live in a part of the US which doesn't have that problem.

2:08 am

grannyrose

no i live in Melbourne. quite south of most fires. the worst thing we had was very heavy smoke blown in from the fires. we actually had the worst air pollution in the world just a few days ago.

2:10 am

rubyfoo

My eyes are so blurry that I rzad snake for smoke

2:10 am

grannyrose

oh my. my beautiful ruby. how are you doing now darling? is the pain under any sort of control?

2:11 am

grannyrose

and if it had been snake, i would have been on the first plane out of here.

2:13 am

rubyfoo

When I saw the hail on TV, I started thinking of the various plagues

2:14 am

rubyfoo

pain is Under control with A LOT of morphine, taken on a tight schedule

2:14 am

grannyrose

good. now stick with it honey.

2:21 am

broll

You are welcome.

7:03 am

MollyL

Isn't that Latin for nothing?

7:06 am

BzznBea

With two T's, an R and the correct vowels, I had to try tetra. =)

7:06 am

BzznBea

Morning, friends.

7:09 am

MollyL

Morning Bea

7:40 am

godthaab

re9 - no plural or adjective???

7:42 am

Jayk

may i please have a clue for the in7? getting nowhere

7:47 am

BzznBea

in7 - the last four are like the fabric used on wedding gowns but with a different consonant

7:47 am

godthaab

in + short form for personal pronoun + relax (sic)

8:26 am

Uneaixoise

Not getting it......

8:26 am

hokie carla

lol, me either

8:27 am

BzznBea

use the vowel in the bottom corner

8:29 am

Uneaixoise

Definition?

8:29 am

hokie carla

got it and can now work back into it. "short form for personal pronoun" is how texters or Prince would spell the pronoun

8:30 am

hokie carla

the last 4 is how you'd spell just hanging around (on a Sun afternoon if you're a queen fan) without a z

8:30 am

NatashaW

it ends with a common chem ending

8:31 am

hokie carla

une, it is an enzyme that does something to insulin

8:31 am

Uneaixoise

Shhhh......texter did it

8:31 am

Uneaixoise

Not shhhhhh.....

8:32 am

Uneaixoise

Meant aaahhhhh

8:32 am

Uneaixoise

LOLOL

8:32 am

hokie carla

haha

8:32 am

Uneaixoise

215 down...... grabbing a coffee

8:33 am

hokie carla

I refuse to spell it that way when I text so I definitely didn't get that. Yes, Molly, I will use acronyms all day but refuse to shorten a 3 letter word to 1 letter.

8:34 am

BzznBea

I spell all my words out in a text.

8:34 am

BzznBea

Although, I do use IKTR.

8:35 am

hokie carla

well now with the predictive text it's much easier to write them all out

8:36 am

periwinkle

what is IKTR?

8:36 am

periwinkle

hi all

8:36 am

hokie carla

I thought I knew all the acronyms but am not sure about IKTR

8:36 am

hokie carla

hi, peri

8:36 am

BzznBea

I know that's right

8:36 am

periwinkle

ah

8:36 am

hokie carla

that's what I was guessing. I'll use IKR for "I know, right"

8:37 am

periwinkle

lots todo today and I am babbling

8:37 am

hokie carla

I haven't even made halfway today. struggling.

8:37 am

NatashaW

found the 10 without using Lickety!! (pats self on back)

8:38 am

BzznBea

=) Way to go, Natasha.

8:38 am

hokie carla

8:38 am

periwinkle

8:42 am

hokie carla

8:50 am

MLFAN17

8:51 am

hokie carla

8:51 am

MLFAN17

8:52 am

rururocks

are you buying a rv?

8:52 am

hokie carla

of course, but we have to sell ours first. also, my husband and I can't agree on what kind we want. we currently have a 40' class A and I want something different.

8:53 am

rururocks

40' is a biggie

8:53 am

hokie carla

we went with 3 other couples we camp with and everyone is looking for something else now that our kids are teenagers. also my SIL and her husband drove from Jax to go to the show, so we met them there.

8:54 am

rururocks

we had a 34' that was plenty big

8:54 am

hokie carla

no one actually bought one though

8:55 am

hokie carla

yeah, ours has a bunkhouse which we don't need anymore and I want something smaller that will fit in more campgrounds

8:55 am

hokie carla

what kind did you have, ru?

8:55 am

rururocks

we had a revolution

8:55 am

MLFAN17

hokie what about an airstreamer?

8:55 am

rururocks

diesel pusher

8:56 am

hokie carla

is revolution the make or model? not familiar with that. we have a coachmen sportscoach cross country.

8:56 am

hokie carla

also a diesel pusher

8:57 am

MLFAN17

what about a toy hauler?

8:57 am

rururocks

it was a model American Standard was the maker i think

8:57 am

hokie carla

mlfan, airstream is at the top of my list now, but you have to find a used one since they are so expensive

8:58 am

MLFAN17

hokie I saw a pic of a new one that had just come out last year it was beautiful! I want one and I don't even drive or camp lol

8:58 am

NatashaW

My folks drove a VW camper all across the USA and up the Alcan Highway, multiple trips from Rhode Island. Small can be beautiful :-)

8:58 am

rururocks

actually revolution is a division of fleetwood, their high end

8:58 am

hokie carla

we would also have to upgrade our truck for most pull-behinds. I also like the class b+ unity by leisure travel vans or there are some by regency that are nice.

8:58 am

NatashaW

melonheadjujube

so, no6/18. My late mom and I used to argue; she claimed it wasn't a word since it didn't appear in the 60s era Random House dictionary that was the arbiter of Scrabble games way back then. She insisted that the an- prefix made it a word. I, a musician said, no, that an+no6 word meant something else, whereas we would no6 all the time. She was having none of that.

11:02 am

hokie carla

lol, I did not have that one (thanks), but I would think it's definitely a word.

11:35 am

hurshy

but china, which is also large, has only one, because they have an authoritarian government. in western china, the sunrise would happen like way way early. but i suppose if the government is throwing you in a re-education camp, the weird times of day are the least of your problems.

1:19 pm

libarebel

BzznBea

I decided it is too cold out for my walk today...

1:27 pm

MLFAN17

bzz yeah I wouldn't go outside unless you had to

1:29 pm

hurshy

there's a theory that black dogs and cats don't always photograph well and that maybe makes people less likely to adopt them

1:29 pm

MLFAN17

the word I just said bzz is the actual name for that hat I think?

1:30 pm

MLFAN17

hurshy that's why for photographers black and white weddings are a nightmare to photograph..

1:31 pm

MLFAN17

1:40 pm

MLFAN17

hurzhy we adopted a cat who was given the name Milo it responded to the name as if that had been his name

1:40 pm

hokie carla

HE WAS ON A BREAK

1:58 pm

hurshy

lol

1:58 pm

MLFAN17

hiatus isn't in the grid

1:58 pm

hurshy

that's because that is a noun

1:58 pm

hokie carla

you are correct, that's not it

1:58 pm

hurshy

you have to make it an adjective

1:58 pm

hokie carla

but a word related

1:59 pm

BzznBea

That is to get possesion again

1:59 pm

hurshy

2:04 pm

hurshy

2:08 pm

hurshy

mummybear, there are so many words in babble that we've never heard of, that we often feel like we are typing random combinations of letters to find them, much as a monkey would. so when we are doing that we call it monkeying and we pretend we have monkeys doing it for us sometimes

2:09 pm

6:05 pm

cybernan

only pond I've ever had was a swimming pool, so no weeds

6:05 pm

Lizlin

You can get this if the chemicals in a pool aren't balanced and it starts to turn green.

6:06 pm

Lizlin

Micro organisms rather than weeds

6:06 pm

dcseain

ooh, that was twisty. thank you

6:06 pm

Lizlin

yw

6:07 pm

cybernan

wow - strange word, ty

6:07 pm

Lizlin

6:12 pm

Lizlin

Fireworks! That was a tough grid.

6:15 pm

cybernan

grats, liz

6:15 pm

Lizlin

Thanks - any clues before I go?

6:17 pm

cybernan

wow - no venomous snakes in enable

6:18 pm

Lizlin

Lots of words not in enable! Lots of unexpected ones are included.

6:18 pm

Lizlin

Time for me to get on with the day. Have a good day / evening everyone.

6:19 pm

cybernan

bye liz -- hope the rain has doused some of your fires

6:19 pm

Lizlin

Thanks nan - we still need loads more.

6:30 pm

cybernan

so 7 please?

6:34 pm

penquis

so 7.... most of not all + "he was frustrated by his com***** to a mental instution"... ;o)

6:35 pm

LuvWordGames

thanks pen

6:35 pm

penquis

no double consonant in the com word...

6:36 pm

penquis

yw...

6:37 pm

cybernan

ty pen

6:37 pm

penquis

yw...

6:40 pm

cybernan

omg - watching the news - sounds like the USA has really become a dictatorship! Adherence to the law no longer applies - at least in the senate - wow

6:41 pm

LuvWordGames

what are they up to now nan?

6:42 pm

cybernan

tune in to cnn -- mcconnel has released the "rules" of the impeachment trial, which are basically saying that no prosecution will be allowed

6:43 pm

LuvWordGames

I've gotten so disgusted with the hyprocrisy (sp?) of those people that I sometimes can't stomach turning on the news :-(

6:45 pm

cybernan

If McConnell prevails it will be the beginning of the disintigration of the United STates --- Putin must be grinning from ear to ear about now

6:46 pm

LuvWordGames

I agree - Putin is the puppetmaster behind a lot of this

6:47 pm

cybernan

un 7 please?

6:47 pm

NatashaW

never thought I'd live to see my country abandon its supposedly sacred values and traditions.

6:47 pm

cybernan

*un 7/36 - last one

6:48 pm

NatashaW

un7 might be what was done to a pope who resigned. They took off his hat?

6:48 pm

hurshy

it could be that this is not the beginning but a later stage - this just shows the disintegration that was already occurring

6:48 pm

LuvWordGames

thanks Natasha

6:49 pm

cybernan

ty natasha

6:50 pm

NatashaW

Any Canadians here prepared to adopt me so I can become a citizen??

6:51 pm

NatashaW

I'm too old to get in on my own steam

6:51 pm

cybernan

I hope not, Hurshy -- if that is so, we'd all better get a "learn to speak Russian/Mandarin" program.

6:52 pm

hurshy

i don't think it's about the language so much - anyone with any sense knows that to keep americans placid, you don't change things, you let them have their entertainment and they let you do whatever you want

6:52 pm

cybernan

If the United STates goes down, Natasha, we will go down with it

6:53 pm

hurshy

not with a bang, but with a whimper

6:54 pm

cybernan

LuvWordGames

6:58 pm

6:58 pm

NatashaW

Someday I'm going to do a massive study of why asking for clues enables one to see the word

6:59 pm

cybernan

6:59 pm

cybernan

7:00 pm

LuvWordGames

7:32 pm

penquis
