BzznBea

Yes, yes and yes.

7:58 am

MollyL

The answer to all your problems is in this little bottle.

BzznBea

Funny you should mention that.

8:02 am

hokie carla

8:03 am

BzznBea

Hey, Carla.

8:05 am

ajbns87

Is there a Babblet dictionary resource?

8:05 am

hokie carla

8:06 am

hokie carla

but you just have to memorize them over time

8:06 am

mael

8:07 am

BzznBea

There is the o that is said in surprise.

8:08 am

mkg

Hi all. Any clues for the C top corner? Also missing the N top corner. Clues and stats welcome.

8:08 am

MollyL

Sprite's profile has a list of Babble words (I hate the term "Babblet") but you have to scroll down through her dictionary of made-up words. Her profile is like ten pages long.

8:08 am

Shirlockc

alright, i give, i need a clue for the X, not just the stats. pretty please?

8:33 am

mattygroves

Crikey is an expression of surprise. The co9 is a weird compound - fuel you burn that makes things dirty + pisces

8:35 am

BzznBea

Thanks, matty.

9:14 am

hokie carla

9:18 am

MollyL

Okay, I waded through all that crap in Sprite's profile and started a list of words rarely seen except in Babble (Babblets if you must). Feel free to mention things to add.

10:06 am

hokie carla

10:06 am

hokie carla

no idea what dordle is. haven't seen that one.

10:07 am

10:58 am

penquis

hello all....

11:00 am

cybernan

I found it pays to have a system - start with a word that has at least 2 vowels and 2 of the most common consonants: r,s,t,l,n.c(sound familiar?)

11:01 am

cybernan

NTPN: ferry terminal in Normandy

11:09 am

penquis

11:09 am

hurshy

11:09 am

penquis

i just started....still have 101 to find...

11:11 am

penquis

i am not liking this grid already....

11:12 am

cybernan

lol - it was friendly enough until I got down to about 60

11:13 am

hurshy

i think it's a bit hard

11:13 am

hurshy

11:14 am

MollyL

11:21 am

cybernan

Dutch way of spelling cough, cu/4

11:22 am

hurshy

11:22 am

penquis

ty...

11:22 am

hurshy

the chief blade of grass???

11:23 am

cybernan

yes -- you've heard of the al 5 leader of the pack? -- figure this one has to be the biggest blade of grass

11:23 am

hurshy

oh, i see. i think it's just an alt sp from a different language

11:23 am

hurshy

but that is funny

11:24 am

penquis

lost me....interesting that dictionary.com now just changes your spelling if they don't have a definition for a word....can't get it to recognize a word that was accepted here....

11:25 am

cybernan

probably isn't a word

11:26 am

penquis

probably not....or the enable people couldn't spell... ;o)

11:27 am

cybernan

there are 2 in the a's that have no def

11:27 am

penquis

two of those C words, too....

11:29 am

cybernan

one looks like it is a mineral that can be chopped

11:29 am

hurshy

C is the hardest today i think

11:30 am

hurshy

a mineral that can be chopped? are you referring to an A word there or a C word

11:30 am

penquis

yes, still missing 17 from that right C....

11:30 am

cybernan

*better quit before Molly accuses me of blurting

11:30 am

BzznBea

I just cleared the second row C with an absolutely ridiculous word.

11:30 am

penquis

good to know, i guess....

11:30 am

hurshy

or you could just blurt since most people do not mind

11:31 am

cybernan

was it the ca 6/24 bea?

11:31 am

BzznBea

That's the one!

11:32 am

cybernan

another alt. sp.

11:32 am

BzznBea

The second ca6

11:32 am

hurshy

woot, thanks for that one

11:32 am

cybernan

oh - don't have that one yet

11:32 am

cybernan

is the 7 related?

11:32 am

hurshy

oh well then i guess i need another one

11:32 am

BzznBea

The 7 is plural

11:32 am

hurshy

and a 7

11:33 am

hurshy

ok got the 7

11:33 am

hokie carla

sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don't

11:33 am

hurshy

so there is another ca6 before that?

11:33 am

penquis

too true, carla...

11:33 am

cybernan

very ridiculous

11:33 am

penquis

i only have one...

11:34 am

BzznBea

Yes, hurshy.

11:34 am

penquis

oh...have the other now...

11:34 am

hokie carla

the first one is like a town in NC north of Myrtle Beach but missing some letters in the middle

11:34 am

hurshy

how many points

11:34 am

hokie carla

same as the other

11:35 am

penquis

actually it's an astringent substance from plants...alt spelling....

11:35 am

hurshy

ty

11:35 am

cybernan

when I saw the first one I thought of " goodnight mrs. ca------------, wherever you are"

11:35 am

penquis

hah...exactly what i thought...

11:36 am

hokie carla

hmm, maybe before my time

11:36 am

cybernan

don't think carla and hurshy are old enough for that one, pen

11:36 am

penquis

perhaps...

11:37 am

MollyL

Yeah but Jimmy Durante is a classic for all ages

11:37 am

penquis

just made up a word (at least I did not know it) and it was accepted...gotta love that...

11:37 am

cybernan

now George was a great comedian -- put a lot of our current ones to shame

11:38 am

MollyL

George who?

11:38 am

hokie carla

burns maybe?

11:38 am

cybernan

no it wasn't George - it was Jimmy Durante

11:38 am

penquis

Gobel?...

11:39 am

MollyL

But what does that have to do with Jimmy Durante?

11:39 am

cybernan

isn't he the one who said it?

11:39 am

mkg

George burns was a great commedian. So was jack benny and henny youngman and so many from way back.

11:39 am

hurshy

i never said cesar romero was tall

11:39 am

penquis

yes, Jimmy...

11:39 am

MollyL

God,I am so lost.

11:39 am

mkg

George Gobel was also terrific.

11:40 am

hokie carla

who's on first?

11:40 am

leighprefect

I thought you were talking about Carlin...

11:40 am

mkg

boy i totally forgot about george gobel. Wow. Memories.

11:40 am

BzznBea

GEorge Carlin was brilliant.

11:40 am

MollyL

This chat is like people just saying random things and none of them connect.

11:40 am

72 Temple Owl

damned if i know...

11:40 am

penquis

*slowly backing out of the conversation*....

11:41 am

hokie carla

these pretzels are making me thirsty

11:41 am

cybernan

both were great comedians - Jimmy Durante and George Burns

11:41 am

MollyL

La la la

11:41 am

BzznBea

LOL @ Carla.

11:41 am

cybernan

yes - I liked Carlin too

11:41 am

hurshy

you rush a miracle man you get rotten miracles

11:42 am

BzznBea

My head is already swimming as I've been on the phone all morning with health insurance and medical clinics.

11:42 am

MollyL

Oh now Hurshy has to throw Billy Crystal/Princess Bride into the mix. Ru, time for your Anne Hathaway comment.

11:42 am

hurshy

ugh, that sucks, i'm sorry Bea

11:42 am

penquis

i feel your pain, Bea...

11:44 am

BzznBea

The pain will come when I have to write the check...

11:44 am

hokie carla

yeah, the worst

11:45 am

hokie carla

I can't wait to see the bill for all this PT I've been doing.

11:45 am

penquis

i got a letter from Anthem saying that my PT is no longer accepting Anthem....not surprising since Anthem is months behind in paying providers...

11:46 am

hokie carla

eek

11:46 am

hurshy

anyone have co6/27?

11:46 am

penquis

new computer system they say....guess it's designed to delay payments!

11:46 am

hokie carla

I think mine only pays 40%, but the PT for vertigo is like super expensive compared to PT I've done for various other body parts.

11:46 am

72 Temple Owl

carla, say it like this: these PRetzels are making me THIRSTY

11:47 am

penquis

my friend's chiropractor also dropped Anthem...

11:47 am

BzznBea

I'm trying to get a break on an injection my mom needs every month. $1400 per injection.

11:47 am

hokie carla

ah yes, TO.

11:47 am

penquis

whoa!!

11:47 am

hokie carla

I do not, hurshy

11:48 am

hurshy

11:48 am

penquis

neither do i, hursh...

11:48 am

72 Temple Owl

or geoge: THESE PRETZELS ARE MAKING ME THIRSTY!!!!!!

11:48 am

BzznBea

It is stupid that a medication would cost that much.

11:48 am

penquis

agreed...

11:49 am

hokie carla

yes, also agreed. but you have the outrageous prices for insulin and epipens too.

11:49 am

72 Temple Owl

not for nothing did we suck at seinfeld trivia night. i wish the questions were as obvious as that.

11:49 am

72 Temple Owl

we found that costco had decent prices for medications.

11:50 am

hurshy

what about that new thing mark cuban set up to provide more affordable meds?

11:50 am

hokie carla

I'm assuming the injections bea is talking about is from a dr office and not available at costco.

11:51 am

BzznBea

It has to be given at in infusion center.

11:51 am

72 Temple Owl

okie dokie. i think four threads of conversation at once is m limitl.

11:51 am

hokie carla

haha

11:52 am

72 Temple Owl

doctors can go to bat for their patients for manufacturers' assitance for copay

11:52 am

72 Temple Owl

cybernan

12:54 pm

Sophie512

hope that cancels out my spice girls clue

1:00 pm

cybernan

there wasn't anything wrong with the spice girls clue, sophie -- it is a generational thing. Only reason I knew who you were talking about is because I had two teenage boys when they became popular

1:03 pm

Sophie512

Ha, me, too..... I just couldn't come up with anything else...but I'm prob older than most here, and remember all the Cartwrights..... esp that I wrote to the youngest one, and got a glossy photo back!!!!

1:04 pm

cybernan

I see that you are also a retired teacher -- did you read the winter boots story in my profile -- I guess if you've always lived in a "no snow" zone that situation never arose for you.

1:06 pm

Sophie512

Oh, no..... I grew up in Topeka, never heard of a snow day, and worse yet, had to wear dresses, until the year after I graduated..... so, yes, slacks under the dress, omg, what a horrible memory

1:07 pm

cybernan

I think you are probably younger than me -- my grandkids range in age fro m 32 to 9

1:08 pm

Sophie512

mine are 14 to 6 we waited a long time before having our first..... until G stopped working for company that transferred a lot I'm 70

1:10 pm

cybernan

yes, I have a few years on you - close to 79 now

1:13 pm

Sophie512

well, you seem much younger :)

1:15 pm

sammysmom

1:19 pm

cybernan
