12:14 am

sprite

Me too, Krys10.
Though they are usually more timeconsuming than I expect ;)

12:15 am

Ellocin

wow...that's not many...might be a little tricky....thanks sprite and Krys10

12:15 am

DarleenMB

wow. stunned into silence

12:15 am

Krys10

I think perhaps my favorite Z word is in here!

12:16 am

sprite

Lol, now you've done it, Krys10. Now I can't help looking for Z-words and wondering if this could be the one you mean...

12:17 am

DarleenMB

well I found one...

12:17 am

Hugabugs

I think I found it too!

12:17 am

Krys10

I've only found two of the three, but the one I'm partial to is a 4/13.

12:18 am

DarleenMB

HA found a 2nd Z

12:18 am

sprite

Guessed that might be the one :)

12:18 am

DarleenMB

And I like the 4/16...

12:19 am

Krys10

er, I've got a grand total of six words so far. This is going to be a long night :)

12:19 am

IceBoySF

Z4/13 X2

agzam2

u 7/28

12:22 am

Hugabugs

You gotta love this h4/10

12:23 am

Hugabugs

Passed the halfway mark!

12:23 am

sfneil

Hazzardous, that is one of my favorite names!

12:23 am

mab

That was my big contribution. It goes with my Z word.

12:24 am

sprite

Great work!

12:24 am

mab

You are almost in here, sfneil.

12:24 am

Dianne

Does anyone have a list of the words by letters?

12:24 am

sfneil

close but, as usual, no cigar!

12:25 am

mab

Don't you just love words? Language is just so wonderful.

12:26 am

sprite

mab, you are SO right!

12:27 am

mab

azazel, the scapegoat, is almost there.

12:27 am

sprite

So is lineair.

12:28 am

Ellocin

1/4 of the way through....of to bed now

12:29 am

Doogle

Time for me to hit the hay. A5/16, everyone!

12:29 am

Krys10

Something's wrong - words aren't showing up in my list but when I type them in I'm told that I already used them. The stats aren't registering them either.

12:29 am

mab

Krys10, try refreshing.

12:30 am

Krys10

Worked. Thanks.

12:30 am

Doogle

Refreshing, isn't it?

12:30 am

mab

Good night Doogley.

12:38 am

sprite

I so much want to make unhinge.

12:39 am

Hugabugs

Sprite - I wand to do unguent

12:39 am

Krys10

I don't believe anyone's mentioned the H6/27 yet.

12:40 am

Krys10

i've been seeing unguent too. And unglue, and azalea.

12:40 am

Hazzardous

Hey - my favourite poet's names are in this one - Piet Hein! Too bad it doesn't count!

12:41 am

Jera

Has L7/56 been called?

12:44 am

baggo

hi everyone...looks like a fun one... ;)

12:44 am

sfneil

u7/28 just in case

12:44 am

Hugabugs

Yes Jera

12:45 am

Hugabugs

Neil - when you think of it, how does one u7/28?

12:46 am

sfneil

I'm not sure how one does, Hugs, but I'm sure I have done it!

12:46 am

mab

I'm sure

12:46 am

agzam2

hugs .... if u babble long enough ... you can U 7/28 :p

12:47 am

Hugabugs

One might forget...

12:47 am

mab

I'm sure it involves a Skinner box.

12:47 am

Jera

Bummer, I was about to be so proud, LOL!

12:47 am

Krys10

I'll be damned, there it is! Thanks for the Skinner clue.

12:47 am

Jera

At least i have all the z's...

12:48 am

sfneil

Case in point: agzam2 at 12:21! I u7ed that pretty ckly!

12:48 am

sfneil

er, "quickly"

12:49 am

agzam2

I'm 'going pro' tomorrow; I find it impossible to complete a puzzle without Brandyjack's lists.

12:51 am

agzam2

ah .... thx hugs & Hazzardous ....... here i was looking for more u's and i already have them ... along with the z's :p

12:52 am

HighEnergy

Is it now discouraged to have that type of list for the non-pro folks?

12:52 am

Krys10

List of long words so far:
L7/56
U7/28

E6/18
H6/27
L6/30
O6/33

12:52 am

Blaze

Is there a clue for the u or l words ???

12:53 am

Krys10

I don't think so - the real advantage to having Pro, as I use it, is the stats panel, and it's not like we can give that to a non-paying user...

12:53 am

sprite

Don't believe so, HighEnergy. Most of us are willing to post the stats in the log, but usually we are too busy entering words in the beginning.

12:56 am

HighEnergy

Well, with so few words in this one, I'm delighted to help...
---- Word lengths ----
4 letter words: 58
5 letter words: 13
6 letter words: 7

12:57 am

Dianne

HighEnergy - Thanks for the list. I appreciate it.

12:57 am

mab

The critical list for me was brandyjack's second letter list. But he doesn't often post it now.

12:57 am

sprite

Krys10, do you also find that knowing from which tile you have to start makes it a lot easier? I try to leave the stats panel till last because of that.

12:58 am

sprite

I think that 2nd letter list is giving away rather much, especially in the beginning. Never look at it, unless I get really stuck.

12:58 am

Krys10

Yeah, it's definitely spoiled me - sometimes I print the puzzle out with the stats panel showing and play on paper until the next morning. Usually I don't have the discipline :)

12:59 am

boreetos

yeah i do that too sprite. I use the stats panel as a last ditch clue giver.

12:59 am

mab

Yes, thank you HighEnergy and Hazzardous.

12:59 am

Krys10

Sprite, do you use a2zwordfinder? I've always wondered...

12:59 am

Dianne

Mab - I know what you mean about Brandyjack's list.
I get the puzzle at lunch time and play for a while. Then I try to finish (try being a very big word here) in the morning after I would see his second letter list. I miss that:(

1:00 am

Blaze

The second letter list is great after you have been at it for more that four hours or you are really stuck.... althoug being a 24 hour game around the world. there is a strong possibiliy that you will spoil it for somebody. I like the second letter post when I am struggling at the end

1:00 am

sprite

Krys10: only as a very last resort, actually. If I am stuck on a few last words and I can't get them with all the wonderful clues and help in the log. Always feels a bit like cheating. :)

1:01 am

Krys10

What is it someone said here once? Using a solver is cheating, everything else is "research" ;)

1:01 am

mab

I'm still not good enough at this to not need the list, but I'm striving to be.

1:02 am

sprite

Lol, I thought that was you, Krys10 :D
Wise words, anyway.

1:02 am

Krys10

Ok, I'm going cross eyed and I still have to drive home. I'll be back in the morning!

1:03 am

baggo

nite krys10....see you later..

1:04 am

sprite

Drive safely, Krys10... not with half an eye on the print of babble ;)
You'd think least they could do was put 'piano' in here, just for the fun of it.

1:04 am

mab

Drive carefully Krys10.

Morning, Baggo.

1:04 am

Krys10

or geezer :)

1:04 am

baggo

hi mab

1:06 am

sprite

Or just 'giant', 5 letters... isn't asking much ;)

1:07 am

boreetos

i keep seeing "genuine".

1:07 am

baggo

i'm going for phony sprite...

1:07 am

sfneil

'Night Krys10!

1:07 am

mab

I keep looking at that truncated giant too. Tiny words. Lots of 3-letters.

1:08 am

sprite

That's the problem with us suckers for words. If they aren't there, we'll make them up. :)

1:08 am

sfneil

Finally got the G's! What a letter to choose to start off with!

1:08 am

baggo

i want navel too...

1:09 am

Hazzardous

"Ophelia" just won't go away

1:09 am

baggo

i agree, we are always striving for the ultimate babble puzzle...more words than we could ever find..

1:10 am

sprite

Okay, one more teaser and then I'll stop: azalea.

1:10 am

agzam2

night all ... be back tomorrow to try some more :)

1:11 am

mab

That H5/30whatever, is nice. Reminds me of Shirley Booth.

1:11 am

boreetos

1:11 am

sfneil

'Night folks!

1:11 am

sprite

1:12 am

baggo

1:13 am

sfneil

baggo I'm sticking around, for a while, at least

1:13 am

Hazzardous

Now I'm seeing a nightie that's not there, so I think it's trying to tell me something. I'm off to bed!
N4/4 N4/4, everyone!

1:14 am

Hugabugs

I thought you were off for the night too Neil!

1:14 am

sfneil

Nope. Just saying goodnight to the folks who were leaving!

1:14 am

Hugabugs

G'Night Hazz!

1:15 am

baggo

sorry, hearin things on my end...must be time for bed...but we know that won't happen that h6 is eluding me... 8-)

1:16 am

Hugabugs

I'm searching for that one too Baggo

1:17 am

sfneil

I see in retrospect that was a bit unclear... maybe I should tuck in...

1:17 am

baggo

and i keep wanting to make it hyena which is totally not in the puzzle nor do the points match...lol

1:18 am

baggo

no, don't head to bed...stay with us a bit longer...

1:18 am

IceBoySF

t6/45

1:18 am

sfneil

And I want 'azalea'! No dice...!

1:18 am

Hugabugs

We didn't mean to push you out the door!

1:19 am

baggo

hugabugs think of another name for bottom...

1:21 am

Blaze

baggo I have though that word too...can not seem to get it on the word list...??? spelling ???

1:22 am

baggo

1:23 am

baggo

1:23 am

Blaze

1:23 am

Hugabugs

ARgh! Thank you... I got it

1:24 am

bodkinz

1:25 am

sprite

T6/45 (my very first contribution today, lol)

1:25 am

baggo

1:25 am

Hugabugs

1:25 am

Jera

Hitting the hay at 50... see you all later...

Hugabugs

Nitey Nites Jera

1:26 am

sfneil

Goodnight, Jera!

1:27 am

sprite

Hugs: yes, 2nd one. Like baggo said, they are very much alike.

1:27 am

mab

I lost you all for a few minutes. We're getting a touch of Rita here, and it's very humid; my computer froze.

My last word: portugal.

1:27 am

Hugabugs

h4/10 seems we've hit plants this time around instead of fish... I've gotten 3 so far

1:28 am

sfneil

mab, be safe!

1:28 am

sprite

Hope you are not too close, mab?

1:28 am

Hugabugs

Where are you mab?

1:28 am

baggo

mab take care!!! we got some rita last night over the weekend and ooh she aint so nice...

1:29 am

Hugabugs

1:29 am

mab

I'm in the middle of New England -- miles away.

1:29 am

sfneil

1:30 am

sprite

I am glad, mab. Good luck with the side effects, though.

1:30 am

baggo

i head out sunday for the south..

1:30 am

sprite

Hugabugs, don't tell me the fishy spell is broken!

1:31 am

baggo

what will we do with no fish??

1:31 am

mab

It's an enormous mass, Rita, enough to touch western Massachusetts.

1:31 am

Hugabugs

Go green instead?

1:32 am

sprite

Breaking my promise to stop: league.

1:32 am

mab

Phini has to be a fish.

1:32 am

baggo

poison ivy???

1:33 am

sprite

Well, although babble won't take it, at least 'eel' is there.

1:33 am

sfneil

mab I remember we were evacuated from northern virginia from one that came up through the gulf... when i was a kid... can't remember the name now

1:33 am

Blaze

I'm with zinnia

1:33 am

Hugabugs

Actually there's 5 plant related words so far

1:33 am

sprite

ROFLOL! Baggo, that's just plain brilliant.

1:33 am

Chessy

if you 'rewash' your hair (yesterday's puzzle), wouldn't that ungel it?

1:34 am

sprite

It would, Chessy. Guess babble is bald too.

1:34 am

baggo

so chessy you tried it too

1:35 am

Blaze

Well my 47 words will wait until I have had some sleep... See tommorrow....

1:35 am

sfneil

'night Blaze!

1:35 am

baggo

nite blaze...

1:35 am

mab

Sleep well, Blaze.

1:35 am

Hugabugs

G'Nite Blaze - sweet dreams

1:43 am

mab

I cannot believe that it took g4/14.

1:45 am

Hugabugs

I use it so often too. Yet it took me a bit before I saw it.

1:46 am

spellit

Hi all - words thin on the ground today!

1:48 am

Hugabugs

Hi spellit - very thin indeed

1:52 am

baggo

1:52 am

sprite

Good night!

1:52 am

Hugabugs

Sweet dreams Baggo

1:52 am

1:52 am

mab

Bye Sprite!

1:53 am

sprite

I am not leaving yet, mab, just said goodnight to baggo ;)

1:53 am

mab

I mean, Night Baggo. Sorry Sprite.

1:54 am

baggo

sfneil...i'm a nasty little noodler...i still have 5's n 1 6 to find...and lots of words you see often on here...

1:55 am

sfneil

baggo i had thought i had an eye for it, but this grid's got me doubting myself!

1:57 am

flerie

hello ol.....any clues for the t6/45 baggo?....just logged in :)

1:59 am

sprite

Same here, sfneil, I am getting nowhere. Can't even find that L7 so far.

2:02 am

Hugabugs

It won't be too long before you do Sprite

2:04 am

tracicle

Nice, hugabugs. :)

2:04 am

sprite

Great clue, Hugs, thanks!

2:04 am

Hugabugs

:o) thank you

2:06 am

sfneil

Well, I'm kind of getting a Bill Withers vibe from the clue, but I still don't see it!

2:07 am

Hugabugs

Can I ask? What's a Bill Withers vibe?

2:07 am

sprite

sfneil, if you are making the same mistake I did, you need a longer strand of consonants.

2:08 am

sfneil

Waaaah! *sobs* I should just go to bed, I think!

2:10 am

sprite

In that case, I wish you a nice, not-too-short night full of pleasant dreams.

2:10 am

Hugabugs

I'm so desperate I'm trying French words

2:11 am

sprite

Makes me think again of baggo's brilliant poison ivy - poisson joke. I am beyond that point now, hugs... I am trying nonwords.

2:12 am

Hugabugs

I am short one word for just about every box

2:13 am

sprite

I need 8 more, most vowel words :(

2:14 am

Hugabugs

Finally finished the R's. i need double yours - 16

2:15 am

sprite

Who says complaining doesn't help? That were the vowel words. Now for 3 more Rs. Give a yell when you get stuck, I got most letters completed now.

2:16 am

sfneil

Thanks for the help, gang, but I am obviously too dense to get any more of this tonight... see you tomorrow!

2:16 am

sprite

Bye sfneil, till tomorrow. :)

2:17 am

mab

Maybe it will look wordier tomorrow. Night Neil.

2:17 am

Hugabugs

NIght Neil.... have a good sleep.

2:18 am

Dianne

I can't believe that so many of you are so close to finishing. I am soooo far away.

2:19 am

sprite

RIght, that's it. Thought I had entered that wet weather word a long time ago, sometimes it helps to check your list and see what's not there :)
A mere 80 words / 4.41 / 928 points today.

2:21 am

Hugabugs

Good job, Sprite. I'm now down to 14

2:21 am

mab

What a star, Sprite! I'm sure Hugabugs is right on your heels.

2:24 am

Hugabugs

I'm getting sore wrists from so much monkey typing

2:24 am

sprite

I am here for another 15 minutes or so, so if anyone needs a clue, just yell.

2:25 am

Hugabugs

If i start Sprite, you'll be here longer than 15 min. ;o)

Hugabugs

HighEnergy - this is so helpful. down to 7 4-letter words

2:38 am

sprite

Dianne: 2 alt. spellings for plant of the genus Dipsacus, of which one species (D. fullonum) bears a large flower head covered with stiff, prickly, hooked bracts. This flower head, when dried, is used for raising a nap on woolen cloth. (So now you know... but I won't make fun of you.)

2:39 am

HighEnergy

te6/45 x2 are alternate spellings of the same thing... and two of about 100,000 resaons that I use a little help solving the puzzle =):

2:44 am

Where ever have I been. It seems to be common knowledge, this plant (she said incredulously). Still, I don't know how you see the word. I expect I will in time.

2:47 am

2:58 am

mab

Thanks again, HighEnergy. Goodnight Hugs, with all the listing and cluing you did for us tonight, plus completing two puzzles -- you're a superstar.

2:59 am

Hugabugs

*blush* geez Mab... thanks

3:01 am

mab

You certainly displayed your right to be wing-ed.

4:26 am

Blaze

I have never seen the chat soooo quiet

4:33 am

SunnFlower

morning Blaze

4:34 am

Jacula

Morning Blaze & Ferrari. Bit small today, isn't it?

4:35 am

Blaze

mornin Ferrari & Jacula small but not quite so easy... I am down to words le 6 /30 and le 7/56

4:36 am

SunnFlower

mornung jacula, deliberate typo there I was up til 4 finishing the last one after playing cards (bridge) til late

4:37 am

SunnFlower

wont take you long to get those then Blaze!

4:37 am

Jacula

Blaze - the 2 words you want are related. The le7 might be used to describe the time it takes to do a 400-word Babble grid.

4:38 am

Jacula

Prob. just as well it's a short one today. I've got 2 Christmas cakes to make.

4:39 am

Blaze

Jacula/// thank you.... as soon as your clue was there I could see it as plain as day.... all the best to you on this grid....

4:39 am

SunnFlower

yum can I lick the bowl?

4:39 am

Jacula

Thanks Blaze.

4:39 am

Blaze

Jacula do you soak them with rum..??

4:40 am

SunnFlower

Blaze didn't you notice the hidden meaning in my clue?

4:41 am

Jacula

LOL, yes Ferrari, if you can get here before the rest of the household.

Blaze - No. They have one soak in sherry & another, 3 weeks later in brandy.

4:41 am

Blaze

I new when you said 400 words... all I could think was long.....

4:41 am

Blaze

Jacula.... that sounds delicious.....

4:42 am

Blaze

Nitey Nite girls.....

4:42 am

SunnFlower

Christmas, doesn't seem 2minutes since the last one

4:42 am

Jacula

G'night Blaze. Sleep well.

4:43 am

Jacula

Ferrari. I know! They've even got Christmas stuff in the shops now. No wonder the years seem to fly so fast.:-(

4:43 am

SunnFlower

nitey nite Blaze, before you go do you have the final points score lol

4:44 am

Jacula

928, I think, Ferrari.

4:45 am

SunnFlower

the first Lakeland Christmas catalogue has already arrived

4:45 am

madhatter

can anyone give me a clue for the 2nd 7 letter word, I have h7

4:45 am

Jacula

Not forgetting the Studio Cards catalogue, which arrived before I'd even had my Summer hol.

4:46 am

madhatter

sorry meant L7

4:46 am

Jacula

MadHatter. Hello. If you look backFerrari & I have just given Blaze clues for the le7.

4:47 am

Jacula

It's a un7

4:47 am

Chessy

ferrari, just had my Lakeland catalogue land on the mat ...!

4:49 am

SunnFlower

love their liquorice

4:49 am

madhatter

thanx Jacula .... found it xxx

4:50 am

Chessy

I reckon Christmas in the shops shouldn't start till after Halloween - which has also been around for 2 weeks. I mean do people need 6 weeks to buy plastic cobwebs and witches hats for goodness sake!

4:51 am

Jacula

Chessy - I agree!

4:52 am

SunnFlower

Halloween used to mean less than Mischief night, my daughter was born on 4th of November so it definitely means more in this house.

4:53 am

Dianne

Hi All - looking for a little hint on the Pi4/9 (not the one like a helmet).

4:54 am

snowyowl

Hello to everyone. Haven't joined the chat log since Friday (no time!). Just grabbing a minute before the littlie is back from playschool. Thanks to everyone for the great stats and clues today.

4:56 am

SunnFlower

your 4/9, 5/26 is all in the top left hand corner

4:57 am

Jacula

I'd got those, since thinking about Xmas cake ingredients, peel etc. LOL.

4:57 am

Jacula

Hiya Dianne & Snowyowl.

4:58 am

Dianne

Hi Jac. How's it going?

4:58 am

snowyowl

Hi Jacula - food figures a lot in this log! It's not doing my hips any good! Dianne the pi4 is the first word in a cocktail

4:58 am

Chessy

Dianne, it's a sort of conifery smell, if you know what I mean :)

4:59 am

SunnFlower

we used to do it to frogs at uni , disgusting, bits of frog ugh, that's nothing compared to what happened to some of the cadavers,no-one would donate their bodies if they knew, we were horrble

5:00 am

Jacula

Oh no! Now I have visions of Ferrari chopping up frogs to put in Xmas cakes. Yuck!

5:02 am

SunnFlower

ugh dianne did you get those pi's in the top left or did I give you the wrong clue?

5:02 am

snowyowl

sorry Dianne I'm giving clues for the wrong score!
Frogs in the Christmas cake might stop me eating so much of it !

5:03 am

SunnFlower

with all the brandy would be as pit***d as a newt never mind a frog

5:04 am

Dianne

ferrari - I'm just looking for the 2nd Pi4/9 (not helmet kinds word). I have the other Pi words. I'm so confused now - I don't know what clue applies. I am laughing so hard - I wish I had that cocktail right now!

5:05 am

Chessy

Dianne, it's what fir trees smell like ...

5:05 am

snowyowl

Right Dianne think I've got the right clue now. Chessy's clue was good. Think - scent of the conifer.

5:05 am

SunnFlower

I've been talking about the pi4/9, pi5/26 combo

5:06 am

snowyowl

By the way if you have any cocktails - it's opening time here now!

5:07 am

Jacula

LOL. I think it must be coffee time.

5:07 am

Jacula

Either that or a bang on the bonce with a coconut.

5:08 am

SunnFlower

flat white with no sugar and a piece of cake please

5:09 am

madhatter

could someone give me a clue for the op6 word .... I'm going crazy trying to find it

5:09 am

Jacula

I haven't made the cake yet, Ferrari. Got some plum crumble or plum & custard tart...

5:10 am

SunnFlower

ooh decisions decisions

5:11 am

macadam

Op6 semi precious green stone

5:11 am

Dianne

Dear Babble Buddies - I finally got the PI4/9. Just looking for another word with that H blinded me.
Thanks - the drinks are on me!

5:11 am

SunnFlower

madhatter its a green rock

5:11 am

Chessy

we have a plum glut at the moment from our trees, plum jam, plum&apple chutney, bottled plums - makes me very plumP!

5:11 am

Jacula

1. A mottled green rock composed of diabase.
2. Any of various green rocks, such as serpentine.

Morning Macadam.

5:11 am

macadam

Morning everyone.

5:12 am

SunnFlower

morning mac, I've just waved in your direction

5:13 am

macadam

Sorry ferrari I must have been looking through the wrong window.(waves back anyway)

5:14 am

madhatter

thanx all ..... even google is caked up today!!

5:15 am

Jacula

Chessy. Same here re the plums. We picked about a million pears last night, too.

5:16 am

snowyowl

Morning Macadam - Just got hubby to make the coffee. All those plums sound gorgeous Chessy. I'm really jealous - just going to eat a plain biscuit (boo hoo). Guess I'll be cooking up a storm this afternoon now!

5:16 am

Chessy

.. and very few wasps around the fruit this year. Usually you have to fight them off in droves ...

5:17 am

Jacula

True, Chessy. Wasps have been few and far between this year.

5:18 am

SunnFlower

pears. my gran used to have a huge Conference pear tree, bless her

5:19 am

madhatter

daddy longlegs seem to have replaced the wasps .... there are thousands of the horrible things around this year

5:20 am

SunnFlower

they will be gone soon, the adults don't eat anything at all so your pears and plums and your bodies are safe

5:21 am

Jacula

Madhatter - that's true about the craneflys (ddll's). I had to tip about 30 out of the glass shades on my office lights. They've been driving us nuts this year, dive-bombing us and committing suicide in any liquid they could find, including our drinks.

5:26 am

Jacula

Speaking of autumn fruits, nuts etc., there's a filbert in this grid.

5:27 am

madhatter

we had loads of dead ones in the light fittings in our lounge .... they are horrible things, even our cats have got bored chasing them this year there have been so many.

5:27 am

SunnFlower

5:43 am

swmbo

Looks like a tough grid? But I like that it is shorter...

5:44 am

Chessy

Tasmin, it's the same word, meaning the same plant, just different ending!

5:44 am

Dianne

Tas - just fiddle with the ending of the one you have.

5:44 am

SunnFlower

lottijw asked me to tell her mummy that she was working

5:44 am

Mrs Often

5:50 am

Dianne

Cheesy - you know I looked for that word many times but just never "saw" it working until I read your clue.
I would laugh if I didn't feel so stupid. Thanks for the help.

5:52 am

Chessy

Dianne, the hi5/16 is just the hi4/7 with a letter added on the end ...

5:53 am

macadam

Love that Jack.I bet you pedal faster with him to watch.

5:54 am

lola100

You're not talking about Dr jack, are you.....lol!

5:55 am

Jacula

I don't believe this! One word to go and I'm stuck on it. It's the first li4.

5:55 am

Chessy

9:55 am

lola100

Anj- there's an SA band called Henry Ate you might enjoy if it's not too "pop" for you. Try to get "hey mister" or "just". Karma has a unique voice :)

9:56 am

lola100

Jo- swap the last two letters around.

9:57 am

Jo

What? That's not fair ... Babble tricked me! LOL. Thanks Lola!

10:00 am

Judi

Good on ya, Anj. (Get a job, you bum!) :-))

10:06 am

Jo

No more LA 4/13 for us, Anj. But, I'm excited. :-)

10:07 am

lola100

What do you do Jo?

10:07 am

Anj

Cheers girls lol. Next Monday. It's just a chat, but it gives me a chance to give them a grilling over a cup of coffee. They pulled my CV off Monster. They are going to get a shock when I turn up lol.

10:08 am

Jo

I'm a marketing manager. :-) Anj, what do you do?

10:09 am

Anj

Training & Development Consultant, although i'm more a technical trainer than soft skills guru.

10:10 am

Jo

Ahhhh .... mystery solved. ;-)

10:11 am

lola100

Oh-kay.... having to rethink this Liz Phair thing... my goodness, she isn't shy is she?!

10:12 am

Anj

Jo

I always wonder what folks do outside Babble. :-) Your career sounds very interesting, Anj ...

Bugzy

10:21 am

Anj

Jo, it can also be a pain in the butt so i'm on no hurry to do the same old, same old. Deadlines, unrealistic expectations, politics, highs & lows and managers who think you can change lead into gold. lol. Should be fun. :)

10:21 am

mickie

Finally done! This was a hard one today!

10:24 am

Anj

10:37 am

swmbo

10:38 am

Jo

Bugzy ... you've gotta love Camilla! ;-)

10:39 am

Sheila Rae

10:39 am

Sheila Rae

sorry, added an i

10:40 am

Bugzy

That's right... Camilla! I couldn't for the life of me remember her name!! And I'm struggling to remember the names of the 2 old guys who always carped about the show.....

10:40 am

Anj

Not sure I do Swimmy. Not to say I haven't seen him tho' Mind you, some actors make parts their own. I couldn't see anyone playing Jack Sparrow other than Depp now lol

10:40 am

Miyavi_fan

Hi everyone ^_^ Nice icon, Anj

10:41 am

Anj

10:41 am

Jo

Anj ... you beat me to it! ;-) Those guys are great, I MUST cycle them in my Muppets avatars!

10:41 am

Anj

10:42 am

swmbo

Newton was Disney's LJS, played in the early 50's and classic.

Well, I gotta go do some work. TYLVM for the help!

10:42 am

Jo

Anj looks like Depp? I'll be RIGHT over!! LOL

10:42 am

lola100

Don't tease me Anj.....

10:42 am

Miyavi_fan

You're a pirate?!

10:43 am

Bugzy

Thanks Anj!! Now I can concentrate my brain power on Babble :)
Those guys were my favorites, along with Animal and was it Janis, the girl in the band with the long blond hair?

10:43 am

Anj

Jo, there were so many good characters in the show it was damn near essential viewing. Dr Teeth & the Electric Mayhem always cracked me up too :D

10:43 am

lola100

Cheers swmbo :)

10:44 am

Miyavi_fan

I'm still confused as to why you're suddenly a pirate, Anj...

10:46 am

Anj

Down girls...I'm more Sparrow than Depp lol With a few beads and a hat I could do fancy dress .
I keep getting told I look like Richard Gere tho'. Not sure i'm comfortable with that...

10:46 am

Miyavi_fan

Gah...speaking of confused...I have some physics. Back in 20

10:47 am

lola100

But Anj, it's Sparrow I'm into not Johnny ;)

10:47 am

Anj

Miyavi, I've always been a pirate lol. Lots of leather, a swagger in my step, twinkle in my eye, and a budgie on my shoulder *has fit of giggles*

11:08 am

Anj

*tick*

11:08 am

Anj

*tick*

11:08 am

Anj

*tick*

11:08 am

Anj

BANG!

11:13 am

Miyavi_fan

Lots of leather?! Sounds more like Dir en Grey than a pirate to me! It'll be corsets next...

11:16 am

Jera

Finally made it in here... been sewing all morning!

11:16 am

Anj

HI Jera...seeds??

Miyavi, please, I have some dignity lol

11:17 am

Mrs Often

For the LIFE of me I can't see the hi4/7 or the hi5/16... Any smart help out there, anyone?

11:17 am

Jera

LOL, sewing, not sowing... Girl Scout badges... first meeting is tonight & Sprite has to look spiffy!

11:18 am

Mrs Often

Found 'em!

11:18 am

lottijw

Hi you lot!!!!! :o) Lola it`s Jack`s you`re into then.....ha ha ha ;)

11:19 am

Miyavi_fan

Hi Lotti!

Sorry Anj, there's no way I'm going to let that drop now!

11:20 am

Jera

Okay what Jack are we discussing, Sparrow, LOST or other?

11:20 am

lottijw

I have to say i love the thought of all that leather mmmmmmmm ;)

11:21 am

Miyavi_fan

Sparrow, I think...the pirate flavoured one.

Lotti, behave!

11:22 am

lottijw

Miyavi have i stunned them into silence?

11:22 am

Jera

Not a big Johnny DEpp fan, but Jack Sparrow had a certain appeal. Really don't like Dr. Jack on LOST, though, & many do...

11:23 am

Miyavi_fan

I think it would take more than that to stun them today, Lotti...it was corsets a couple of minutes ago.
My bad.

11:23 am

Miyavi_fan

Apparently Anj doesn't wear corsets.

11:24 am

lottijw

I noticed!!!!
Jera ain`t it a good job we`re all different :)

11:24 am

Babbler

Hi all. Doesn't look like a nice grid...

11:25 am

lottijw

Ooooops i didn`t mean i`d noticed he doesn`t wear corsets!!! you got your message in too quick LOL !!

11:25 am

lola100

Yup, looks like I got a thing for Jacks!
Hi lotti :)

11:25 am

Anj

Whoa! I'm off in non-Babble land with Lola :)
Lotti! Where ya been girl?? We've missed you...
Nothing wrong with leather :)

11:27 am

Anj

Miyavi, how was the physics??

11:27 am

lottijw

Hey Anj :) OH I know there`s nothing wrong with leather!!!!!!!!
Out of interest do you wear a denim cut off over your leather jacket?

11:28 am

gramma

The sun is shining..the garden's calling....and babble will not let me go. 3 left. le6/30 le7/56 and ne4/4 not the hawaiin one. Please! for the love of god, let me be free. Help?

11:28 am

lottijw

Hi Lola, how you keeping? I did my maths class today ;)

11:29 am

Miyavi_fan

Physics was...bleurgh. Like normal. Have some scary algebra for later as well! (I don't know how we got from trig to algebra in two days, but that's mr fitz for you)
x + y = my brain melting!

11:29 am

Anj

gramma, the le6 & le7 are the measure of a good clue ;)
The ne4/4 sounds close by as well lol :)

11:30 am

Jera

11:32 am

gramma

11:33 am

lola100

Hi Jera :)
Must say I'm not a big Johnny Depp fan either but I would run away with Jack Sparrow in an instant ;)

11:34 am

Anj

Lotti, never got into that. Prefer a casual leather to a bikers jacket too although I own one. I'm more of a t-shirt and jeans kinda guy. I've spent all my working life in a suit so it's I need casual or would pop.

Miyavi, eek, scary letters. Hope he's not letting you near sigma notation yet :/

Lola, she's ok isn't she :) That one's off her latest album too

11:36 am

Anj

Gramma, some people will go to any l........s , especially in a swimming pool lol. Knock off the s for the 6 and add a y for the 7. :)

11:37 am

JaxH

gramma

Thank you thank you thankyou...I'm free! before I go, can I help anyone?

11:39 am

Jera

We are fortunate to have very fertile backyard soil. the pumpkins & squash did marvelously. Just have to be careful as some parts flood & some arts are very shady. Does look very organized, but it takes a lot of planning to make everyone happy!

11:39 am

Anj

Gramma, Jera needs some bulbs planting, and Miyavi wants to know why x & y are in her physics homework :)
Not what you had in mind?? lol ;)

11:40 am

11:52 am

gramma

Jera, el is just like le5/12

11:52 am

Anj

Eek...flashbook to those nasty workbooks we used to have for maths :( We had to put algebraic stuff in the front, turn the book over so it opened upside down and backwards, and put statictical stuff in there *whines*
I want my mummy :'(

Good luck to all.

11:58 am

lottijw

Think of the ££££££££££££`s Anj ;)

11:58 am

Jo

Chin up Anj, remember ... we all have to ea 4/4 a living. ;-) Darned adult responsibilities!

11:58 am

Babbler

if it's going to kill your soul, don't do it. Life's too short as it is.

11:59 am

Babbler

don't listen to me. woke up on wrong side of bed today.....

11:59 am

lola100

Damn Anj, there goes our road trip.....!

Thanks lotti :) mbwmbahmnmbba?

11:59 am

Jera

mtnjock.. I have that asinine song running through my head ever since I found that expletive deleted word!! (le5/12)

12:01 pm

Anj

Thanks folks. Actually it's nice to have some interest, but i'm not sure I'm ready to start working again yet. I go with you Babbler, if it feels good, do it. If not, then don't.
Lola, road trip! :)

12:01 pm

Jera

Miyavi_fan... my German prof was livid... the French & the Germans evidently don't get along... he was already PO'd that I hadn't quite French to take german... I was taking both at one. that was a very weird semester....

12:03 pm

Jo

Arrgh ... what am I missing on these G's? I can only see one, a GE 4/5 :-( Any hints to get the ball rolling?

12:03 pm

Miyavi_fan

lol...there is not much funnier than an angry german teacher! My old german teacher weighed about three hundred pounds, and when he got angry he waggled his chins at us!

12:04 pm

Jo

Nevermind ... all I had to do was type my frustration, then I found them all. :-(

12:05 pm

Babbler

ge4/14.

12:05 pm

Miyavi_fan

We all thought he stored extra supplies in his chins. And though I say three hundred pounds, I think about half of that was nose...

12:05 pm

Jera

Well, I was lucky on that count... mine was totally hot & smoked a pipe... very sexy... not that that had anything to do with my decision to take his class, ahem, shuffles feet...

12:05 pm

Anj

Jo, two more 4/5s and 4/14 that sounds like J... Louise! :)

12:06 pm

Jera

Somebody help me with the stupid az4 so I can move on to the expletive H's...

12:07 pm

Jo

Jera, az: "The Muslim summons to prayer"

12:07 pm

Miyavi_fan

Jera!!! Hmph. Why does my class get all the bad teachers. I swear, my IT teacher is an Einstein lookalike! Though I doubt Einstein smelt that bad.

12:08 pm

Haz1558

Jera, take a left turn upwards after the az and keep heading west.

12:11 pm

lola100

Sorry Anj, trying to cook and keep an eye on the log! So the road trip is still on?!

12:11 pm

Jera

There are no M's int his puzzle! Okay, found the variation...

12:11 pm

Anj

Miyavi, that's one scary faculty you have there.

12:11 pm

mtnjock

yeah! Done.

12:12 pm

Jera

Herr Edison was an excellent teacher... would have taught the Latin class had their been enough interest. Alas, no. So now I'm taking it 20 years later, LOL!

12:12 pm

Miyavi_fan

Ah...they aren't all bad. Just the ones that teach ME! We call my IT teacher 'flossy' because he flossed with his own hair in class! *gagging noises*

12:12 pm

Anj

Of course babe. NYC to Jacksonville to Los Angeles to Seattle. Cancel the milk... lol :D

12:13 pm

Jo

el6/21 - A writ of execution against a debtor by which the debtor's property or goods are delivered to the plaintiff until the debtor can settle the debt.
Just plonk an E in front of your le5/12 which looks like it means to scarper pdq on foot :)

1:48 pm

CathyD

What do the codes stand for i.e. el6/21 Thanks.

1:49 pm

Anj

CathyD it means:

starts with an e

1:55 pm

Anj

How about an eo6/18 - old fave with the Babble grid:
'Relating to, caused by, or carried by the wind'
it's an eo plus your li5/10 with the last A knocked off :)

1:56 pm

Anj

he6/27 - slang for your butt. Sounds like you're saying hello! to Monthy Python's Knights Who Say ...!

2:00 pm

lola100

I'm back :)

2:00 pm

torgone

Hola lola! Anj was just talking about you.

2:03 pm

torgone

Actually, he wasn't. Guess I was just thinking about you. How are you today?

2:04 pm

lola100

I'm good thanks and you? How are you doing with todays grid?

2:05 pm

SashaJo

Hi - new to this, I am. Bad, bad game. Home sick today and should be sleeping. The game is a bad influence. :-)
Just found a bit of slang ge4/14 that I cannot believe would be here.

2:05 pm

Anj

op6/33 - green rocks. As Lola said earlier, sounds like an exclamation plus fisticuffs :)

2:06 pm

torgone

It's kind of a stinker. I'm down to 22 and groping for words.

2:07 pm

Anj

Hi SashaJo - get well soon. I see you've spotted the daily profanity, although it's quite tame today lol :)

2:08 pm

SashaJo

Thanks. What happens if I ever finish one of these things? Will the ceiling open up and balloons and confetti fall through? (And how do I get one of those cool avatars?)

2:08 pm

lola100

Yeah torgone, plenty of nonsense words and they tend to hide the ones you should find easily!

2:10 pm

lola100

sashajo- that only happens when there are more than 250 words to find. We will clap and cheer tho'! :)

2:11 pm

Babbler

anyone got the in4/4? I've tried every combo except The One......

2:11 pm

Miyavi_fan

what?! I can't find that bad word! That's so unusual for me! *searches*

2:11 pm

Anj

Lol, I wish SashJo. No, but you can expect a 'yay!' from the other Babblers in the log. We've asked for something to happen - I think Dr God (creator) is working on something so we just have to be patient meantime.
You get an avatar, flag and handbag if you go Pro which is $10 I think :)

2:12 pm

Babbler

.......... I am officially an idiot......... I already have it.......

(hangs head in shame)

2:12 pm

thegacfish

in4- like the country, but missing a letter

2:12 pm

Anj

Miyavi, you were lurking! Clue: sounds like cheddar :)

2:12 pm

torgone

Babbler - You mean the South American freshwater dolphin that is ten or twelve feet long, and has a hairy snout?

2:13 pm

Babbler

LOL!

2:13 pm

lola100

miyavi- it's very tame today, ge4/14. Use the points to help you :)

4:57 pm

EvaNadine

i just had an idea, if Dr God is lurking somewhere..
for the Pro Babblers...

would it be possible if, on the screen with the word list, you could click on the headings at the tope of the list (i.e., "words", "letters", "points") to order the list by that topic?
so, for example, if i wanted to group all the 4-letters, 5-letter, 6-letter, etc. words together, i could click on "letters" and it would order the list by word-length.

does that make sense?
would anyone else be interested in that?

4:57 pm

Deutsch

z4/16? wha...

4:58 pm

boreetos

evanadine, that's a great idea. I second the motion.

7:17 pm

Jo

lianakate, you need to open up Notepad, copy and paste everything in there. Then, you can look at your Notepad, and your Babble grid and easily compare on-screen. *i'm such a dork*

7:18 pm

lianakate

i will look for the HY word..since that counts the most..sigh

7:19 pm

9:17 pm

cathy22w

good grief.... i'm sure i am staring at the words!!! any clues for the te6's??? thanks!

9:20 pm

Jacula

Both te's begin with a very British and Indian drink. But they refer to a plant with a spiny seedhead that was once used to brush up the nap on woollen cloth. These days, they are more likely to be seen in British homes sprayed gold or silver in dried arrangements for Christmas. Both words have the same 3 letters for their ending (one of which is a 10 tile) but the letters are arranged slightly differently in each word.

9:21 pm

cathy22w

thanks jacula!..... burning the midnight oil tonight? lol

9:27 pm

Jacula

Something like that. Surfeit of sleep for a while.

9:41 pm

cathy22w

I guess you've all got all of the clues now? So I'll go back to reading my latest novel, Ben Elton's Past Mortem...

9:51 pm

CadFan

Thanks Jacula.
I'm down to 9 words

9:52 pm

Jacula

which 9 words? Jeez, Ben Elton's got a horrible imagination! Worse than mine when it comes to a horrible murder for an opener, worse than Jack the Ripper's. almost, come to think of it...

9:57 pm

CadFan

I'm missing, I know, the EL6/21, the LE 6/30 and 7/56, the OP 6/33, the RA 5/28 and the UN 7/28

9:59 pm

Munner

CadFan, It's easier to study it right the first time than have to un----- it.

10:00 pm

Munner

CadFan, le 6/30. Do you remember the formula for the area of a rectangle?

10:00 pm

CadFan

You know, I knew that Un was something really easy...

Thanks Munner!

10:01 pm

CadFan

got the LE's

10:02 pm

Munner

Expand your le 6/30 for the le 7/56.

10:03 pm

Jacula

Add an l e to your le 5/12 for your el.

What it really meanns is:A writ of execution against a debtor by which the debtor's property or goods are delivered to the plaintiff until the debtor can settle the debt.

10:04 pm

10:13 pm

Jacula

C,mon Torgone, you can do it! You can be a hero. (What words do you need?)

10:15 pm

CadFan

Sorry, but the OP clue isn't working for me....

Got those. Thanks youse guys!
3 h's & an r to go.

10:31 pm

CadFan

He will recover fully. He is not yet fully recoverd, but he will be! Fractured his pelvis in two places, major concussion, lots of abrasions and one large laceration over his right eye extending down through the eyebrow into his eyelid. But he is one very lucky young man and he should be fully recovered by Christmas (too bad our bank account won't be! )

10:32 pm

Munner

CadFan, so glad to hear that good news. You are blessed.

10:34 pm

Jacula

Cadfan - so glad to hear he will be okay, My Dad had a young man all battered up, next to him in hospital one time, he formed a close friendship with him for a while. The young man, Neil, looked far worse than my Dad did then, but Dad's now 'gone' and Neil is the fatyhere of 3 kids and has a happy family.

10:34 pm

Yes, we are incredibly blessed. Lots of cruddy things going on this month, including the deaths of two other family members, but we have our son. In spite of the bad, we have a great deal to be thankful for.

10:36 pm

Jacula

Anyway, off now. Hope everyone's got all the clues they needed.

10:38 pm

torgone

CadFan - give him a little love from a stranger.
Jacula - Muchos Thankyous for the help! Sweet dreams.

10:38 pm
