12:42 am

sprite

Morning onyx!
Lucky, you are right, this one is harder. But we will help you finish, don't lose heart ;)

12:43 am

LUCKY

Thank god for dye hards!

12:50 am

mab

I see that IceBoySF flew through here, finding that T7 faster than the speed of light. He's a man of mystery. Or a precocious boy of mystery.

'Morning Sprite. Dutch is interesting in that it is quite close to English (or vice versa), but not enough for an English only speaker to fully grasp. That sounds very uneducated of me, I suppose, a bland observation.

12:52 am

sprite

No, it doesn't and I agree completely. The languages are close and yet so different. It is fascinating to use both, really.

12:57 am

mab

I would enjoy learning Dutch. (and Portuguese, Italian, and Spanish, not to mention Arabic and the entire Semitic languages tree)

12:58 am

sprite

O mab, I am right with you! So many languages that are interesting... only where to find the time to study them!

1:00 am

sprite

MAMABEAR, where are you? There is a naughty P4 too!

1:04 am

sprite

Plus related P5.

1:04 am

CrysAnnMarie

el 5???

1:05 am

sprite

EL5/10: To remove afar off; to withdraw

1:06 am

CrysAnnMarie

still not getting it sprite

1:07 am

sprite

You might have L4/4 that is part of this word. Sounds french.

1:09 am

mab

If you emailed this joint it might be called an el5.

1:10 am

mab

joint in the sense of a roasted thing. Sorry, I shouldn't attempt clues.

1:11 am

sprite

:D
A joint by email... is that what they call a sticky?

1:13 am

mab

Being in Holland, you would know better than I about joints, sprite. Big fat bully US fight war on drugs!

1:15 am

sprite

I never had one in my life, actually :)
Oh, about the naughty Ps: P4, P5x2, P6!

1:18 am

mab

I don't know what I'm talking about at this or, usually, any other hour. Never mind.

I don't know from pork, but I think the lo4 is a cut of that kind of meat, and is roasted, thus my thinking of it as a joint. Never mind.

1:20 am

sprite

I do miss Mamabear and GreyWoulf this morning!
Though I like the present company very much, of course :)

1:20 am

mab

I think we just had something of a cultural hiccup, sprite. But meat, email - does sound sticky...

1:21 am

mab

I think that mamabear is abed; haven't noticed GW this evening.

1:22 am

sprite

No hiccup here, I am just having fun with the dual meaning of the words. Join me in the sticky joint roast :)

1:23 am

cybernan

el5: e+lo4/4

1:24 am

mab

Well put cybernan.

Yes, a freshly roasted email joint does sound scrumptious.

1:25 am

Griffums

Sprite, did you get the no 4/4? I can't seem to land on it via ape keying.

1:25 am

sprite

Griffs, think black.

1:26 am

mab

Film, Griffums, think darkish films.

1:26 am

Griffums

Well, duh. I thought I typed that already. Thanks.

1:27 am

mab

You really should keep your ape AWAY from your computer, Griffums.

1:27 am

Griffums

(er, what makes you think it's MY computer?) ;D

1:29 am

mab

You're right. I'm so sorry. That was very humanist of me. Much contrition here.

1:29 am

Griffums

:))) My gorilla has such dainty little fingers too.

1:29 am

sprite

6s:
Eu24 (normal breathing)
in18, in18
Mi21
Ni18
Pe21, Po21, Po36
Te27, To18, To18, Tr18

105 words / 4.5 / 986 points

1:30 am

mab

Brava, Sprite!

1:31 am

Griffums

Yeah, well, well...that's because you're really FAST!
(nice job sprite)

1:32 am

sprite

I had trouble with that E6, and with the Pe6 and Po6/36, so I thought maybe someone else might benefit from my hunting ;)
Anyone who needs clues before I split?

1:33 am

mab

Eu, hmmm..... Will hunt. Thanks Sprite.

1:33 am

Griffums

I stumbled on the e6 early. No need for clues yet here, I'm just slow, and today because I think this is a boring grid, I'm doing the words in order so I have no idea what trouble I may yet encounter.

1:36 am

sprite

Well, you are right, it isn't a very exciting grid. No real surprises and no finds that make you jump and shout. No fish either, I believe.
Mab: let the vowels rule when you hunt for the Eu.

1:37 am

cybernan

Thanks Sprite - I don't have any of those!

1:41 am

cybernan

Just scrolled down far enough to see that you are finished, Sprite --- WOW!!!

1:43 am

mab

Must sleep. Or so it is said. May as well do so now while it's dark. A bientot, all.

1:43 am

Griffums

'night mab...

1:43 am

sprite

Thnx *blush*.
Night mab!

1:50 am

Griffums

Sprite you still there? I could use a clue on the te 6/27.

1:50 am

Griffums

n/m - just got it

1:52 am

LUCKY

Sprite do you have a clue to the eu 6/24?

1:53 am

sprite

Faster than light ;)
Have a great day/night/whatever, all of you, and have fun hunting!

1:53 am

sprite

Lucky: I gave some already. Its def is normal, unlabored breathing. And the vowels rule.

1:55 am

LUCKY

YES Sprite I saw but i don't get the normal breathing part.....

1:55 am

Blaze

hail to all

1:57 am

zubie

Hi again everyone. Took a short break and am back.

1:58 am

Griffums

Hi blaze / Hi zubie

1:58 am

Blaze

Hello Griff how is the KAP

1:58 am

Griffums

It's been missing for days!

1:59 am

sprite

Lucky: if you put AN before it, you have the abnormal variety that is used more often. I am not sure how to get closer to the word without giving it away, but I'll think about it some more.

Hi Blaze, zubie! Happy hunting!

2:00 am

Griffums

Lucky - let's try it from the other direction - abnormal breathing. A disorder that many people suffer at night, called "sleep -----". Just replace the initial vowel with the eu.

2:01 am

zubie

Hi Griffums, Hi sprite!

2:02 am

Blaze

thanks for the great clues

2:04 am

myownvenus

any clue for the in/7 ? would be appreciated

2:08 am

cybernan

te 6/27: morning beverage + Hawaiian fruit (var. sp.)

2:09 am

Griffums

Venus, sorry - I stepped away - it adds two letters to the in 5/10 just above it, but there's no def in the dictionary that I found. And it looks weird too. ;)

2:10 am

cybernan

Any clues for the pe 6/21?

2:11 am

Griffums

pe 6/21 is fuel for the lorry

2:13 am

myownvenus

Got it - thanks Griffums

2:13 am

Griffums

You're welcome but you got it on your own. That was a weird one. :D

2:14 am

myownvenus

It is kind of funny - but most word are!

2:14 am

Griffums

And I can quit looking as it says there's nothing more to find. Any other clues before I go night-night?

2:14 am

Griffums

That's true, venus, also allows you to make up your own defs.

2:17 am

Griffums

Anyone, anyone? Okay I'm off to bed.

2:17 am

Blaze

Good nite Griff.... keep your kap on tite.////

SummerBreeze44

Zubie gave you the perfect clue: Think triple and heavy weight.

3:08 am

zubie

Cybernan. How would you describe the weight of an elephant? In what terms? Think triple of that.

3:09 am

cybernan

Thank you all --- the clues are all so obvious now that I know what it is!! I think I monkey typed every possible combo except that. Never has the "0 words to find" message looked so good.

3:09 am

zubie

3:11 am

Frances

zubie
tr7/28 verse form

3:12 am

cybernan

zube - it's on the stats board you get when you go pro.

3:13 am

zubie

Oh. No wonder I don't get that message, Cybernan.

All these clues for tr7 and my brain is stagnated. :/

3:43 am

zubie

3:45 am

Haz1558

There's another in 4/4 meaning a Japanese box. Just one letter different.

3:45 am

Oh. Thought I'd typed that before. Got it now. Thanks. :)

3:54 am

Haz1558

Lucky - have you got the tr 6 yet?

3:57 am

LUCKY

haz No!!!

3:57 am

zubie

Clues for the first in 6 and the in 7 please?

3:57 am

Haz1558

Okay - first three letters mean three (as in three babies born together) then add an imperial measurement of weight. It starts from the t on the bottom row.

3:59 am

Haz1558

in 6 is a shorted form of 'introductions'

4:00 am

zubie

The other in 6, Haz. I got it anyway. Looking for the in 7 now? Any clues?

4:01 am

Haz1558

Not yet - I'm monkey typing - what is the value? I haven't looked up the stats yet.

4:02 am

zubie

4:03 am

zubie

Oh. I got it Haz. Didn't even know that that's a word! Strange one :)

4:04 am

4:04 am

zubie

And that gets me the 105 and I can sit back and grin and dole out clues now. :)

4:06 am

davetins

Zubie, looking for the first to6/18 please

4:06 am

Haz1558

Got the in 7 thanks to the clues. What a strange word!

4:08 am

zubie

davetins , to 6 - think of a small heavy weight.

Another clue for that could be "heavy weight (imperial) and an alternate word for allow"

4:08 am

LUCKY

WITH THE HAT OVER MY EYES SILENTLY SITTNG BACK IN ANGUISH QUAAAAAK! BY THE GREEK GODS OH I AM PULLING MY IMPERIAL WEIGHT!

4:08 am

zubie

What's the matter, lucky?

4:08 am

davetins

Ty Zubie, that's me done too

4:09 am

Haz1558

Does that mean you've got it or not?

4:11 am

LUCKY

Thank the Gods --- and zubie --- for at the very last moment in anguish I found him... he was heavy!

4:12 am

Haz1558

What a relief!

4:12 am

zubie

Goodness! Were you still searching for that elusive greek one, lucky?!

4:13 am

LUCKY

yes frogs did not invent the world you know they can only turn into something beautiful at last.

4:13 am

zubie

Frogs? You've puzzled me!

4:15 am

LUCKY

The spirit is back ... and daring to go for the in 7/48.
Maybe you'll see me in a hundred years or so ....

4:16 am

LUCKY

Zubie think of fairytales and kisses ....

4:16 am

Haz1558

Davetins gave a good clue at 4.04

4:17 am

zubie

Yes, lucky. But where did frogs and fairy tales come into babble from? :)

4:20 am

LUCKY

in 7 .... in one go ... getting there
Zubie my icon is a frog and frogs are said to turn into prinses in a famous fairytale (so they cannot invent the world but they can at least turn into something beautiful ... forgive my brain twisting ... that's what I get for babbling .....

4:22 am

zubie

It's a frog? :o Thought it was a mouse. Ooops.

4:25 am

LUCKY

Zubie the mouse ran ... scared of the frog!

4:26 am

LUCKY

An uplifting remark ... only 30 words to go oooops!

4:27 am

zubie

Got it now, lucky. My page hadn't refreshed and I still was seeing the mouse. No wonder I couldn't make sense of that 'mouse running and being scared of the frog'! :)

4:28 am

LUCKY

Thought the plural of the japanese box was a word to but it keeps getting rejected ... is this normal anyone?

4:29 am

zubie

Any clues needed?

4:36 am

LUCKY

zubie does the plural of the japanese box exsist or do I have a bug?
le 5/12 and the very last le le 4/5 pleez

4:38 am

LUCKY

4:42 am

zubie

4:45 am

Haz1558

4:45 am

zoom

*slaps head* - thanks zubie!

4:46 am

LUCKY

Haz thanks that'll keep frog jumping for sure!

4:47 am

Haz1558

It would put a whole new meaning into le 4/5.

4:48 am

LUCKY

Haz... no more le** days then!

4:49 am

Haz1558

No, you're right!

4:51 am

5:10 am

Eva

Lucky: the plural of "An assembly or meeting with all members present."

5:10 am

Haz1558

pl 5 - use the letters in the top left corner - ends in a vowel

5:14 am

LUCKY

Eva did not get your clue ... assembly as in meeting .. as in?????

5:16 am

LUCKY

Eva arn't you talking of the pA 5/12 instead of the pL 5/12?

5:17 am

Eva

lucky- if you google the quote you'll find it. Or, the other thing in the sky that isn't a star....change the first vowel and drop the last letter.

5:18 am

Poo's Mom

Lucky do you have the pl4/5?? put a consonant in between the ending vowels

5:26 am

lshult

davetins clue for in7 "in5/10 plus two thirds of an annoying flying insect" is all well and good, but I have 2x in5/10 and I still can't work it out!!!! and how about a clue for the t7.
Todays puzzle is desperate. I need some serious help.

5:30 am

Haz1558

It's the second in 5 and the last two letters add up to 7

5:31 am

Haz1558

The t7 is what you would call three singers, plus a word meaning 'to allow'.

5:32 am

Poo's Mom

Thanx Haz!

5:33 am

mousakka

5:34 am

Haz1558

5:35 am

Poo's Mom

5:35 am

Haz1558

I would say yes, but I'm not sure mine was ever really switched on in the first place

fireworks? is it a holiday there?

9:47 am

Miyavi_fan

Sort of...on saturday it was Guy Fawkes day. So, obviously, we must celebrate terrorists trying to blow up the houses of parliament...weird...

Hey Miyavi, thought you`d have been on in IT this morning!

9:49 am

Miyavi_fan

Yes, ours just have to include throwing dummies on top of bonfires lol. What's quirky in America?

9:49 am

Miyavi_fan

Hey Lotti! No IT this morning. Just lots of, er, lovely maths. Yum.

9:50 am

cailte23

What's not quirky? lol
Actually, I only pay attention to the major holidays (independence, easter, christmas)...and of course my birthday. I do believe it's rather quirky that they don't make my birthday a noational holiday tho.

9:51 am

cailte23

national*

9:52 am

Miyavi_fan

Caitte, they are obviously out of their minds. I'm still waiting for my birthday to become a national holiday, but, you know, the government is so busy these days. I don't know why Tony Blair doesn't mention it more in his speeches

9:53 am

cailte23

Ah well. Guess we'll just have to have private celebrations even tho we know the public is yearning to party as well

9:54 am

Ah, they're celebrating inside ^_^

yup.

Miyavi it`s Torgones birthday today :)

Thank you all so much!
It's the Ick.

that would explain why "welsch" only has 1 vowel.
very efficient, bejay!

10:11 am

Hot blackcurrant juice & LOTS of rum Torgone, sugar if necessary and drink until the pain goes away. It'll either do the trick or you won't care! You win both ways!

I was gonna change it for Torgone, but he doesn`t sound in the mood!

Hi everyone,
Back from feeding catg and other distractions and wanting to finish this up. Have 4 words left: pe5/12, to4/4,to6/18 and tr5/10.
For the pe's I already have the one that's a meeting
For the to4/4 I have the posh one, the legal one, the cake and ripped one.
For the to6/18 I have the elongated cake
For the tr5/10 I have nothing

Please can someone help me cross the finish line so I can stop crippling myself and leave the house?

how thoughtful of Dr. God. wonder why it's "Dr."? Like "god" doesn't connote enough power so gotta add "Dr" on? Why not CEO Dr. God with a Buddha twist on slice of Allah.
probably because that's way too long of a name

GOT IT!!!!!! e_gurl use the 1st in5 and instead of taking it to the right for the plural take it to the left - you can then use the score to get it !!!!

11:41 am

mtnjock

I didn't have her permission to put it in my profile, but it went along the line of bad song quotes we were flinging at each other that day, I could not do it justice today paraphrasing it... needless to say, we were picking on ANJ and Lola (and singing the copa cabana song at them...)

11:41 am

lottijw

Have done Torgone!!
Smaller, she said thanks, she`s really missing the chat log. I have to fill her in on who said what!!!!

1:07 pm

Smeltzdog

smalls - think of the old school lard stuff and change the last letter.

1:07 pm

hurshy

oops, SDBG is going to do it after all!

1:07 pm

1:08 pm

hurshy

well, SDBG, what's the verdict?

1:09 pm

DirtBikeGirl

I like the Alfredo Sauce option! Alfredo Sauce it is!

1:09 pm

Smeltzdog

the fish thing was around before I started...who started it and what do I have to do to get one?

1:09 pm

smaller

make it a double flounder,

is it ol4/4 where on the package it has "might cause anal leakage?" that's quite the warning.

1:09 pm

hurshy

i asked how it started the other day, smeltz, and nobody knew.

1:09 pm

Smeltzdog

alfredo sauce it is...all aboard!

1:10 pm

hurshy

you just ask for a fish and someone passes you one.

1:10 pm

Smeltzdog

may I throw sushi?

1:10 pm

hurshy

smeltz - geobabble was here before. i was star-struck.

1:10 pm

DirtBikeGirl

I thought I read in Anj's profile that he started it. The Haddock of Obviousness, or something like that.

1:10 pm

smaller

fish started with the first babblers, anj's bio has some descriptions of the fish, different kinds of fish for not putting "s" on the end or "er" "est" that sort of thing

1:11 pm

hurshy

don't think it's polite to throw fish at people without just cause

1:11 pm

Smeltzdog

snap...I miss all the good stuff.

1:11 pm

snowyowl

1:12 pm

DirtBikeGirl

Well, I still have a ways to go (work getting in the way), but I'll take a bit of a break in the jacuzzi!

1:12 pm

hurshy

can somebody post this fish info here? (unless the bios are also available to non-paying babblers like me)

1:12 pm

Ho Hum

the cod of doh! - says it all.
the pilchard of possiblities is another. All can be used for self abuse and satisfaction. once the missing word is found.

1:13 pm

hurshy

(blush)

1:14 pm

Smeltzdog

hursh - you met The geo?
the #1 babbler?

just realized that most all of you are ahead of me.

1:14 pm

hurshy

1:15 pm

Smeltzdog

1:19 pm

1:19 pm

Smeltzdog

Oh, and we've been calling them handbags since we got them so stop laughing at snowy! lol!

1:22 pm

hurshy

i always figured they were people.

1:22 pm

Smeltzdog

purse?!?

I never thought that. Could it be that people on the other side of the pond don't see well?

1:22 pm

mamabear

Alfredo sauce in the jacuzzi????? And who is geobabble!!!! What a girl misses when she has to work!!!!!!!!

1:22 pm

hurshy

geobabble - humble, cute, wry sense of humor.

1:23 pm

snowyowl

I would like to point out at this stage that I always knew they were people!!! Lots of people think they're handbags tho! I always wonder at the green ones (there are some!)

1:23 pm

hurshy

who is geobabble????? look on player rankings, mama.

1:23 pm

Smeltzdog

mama - the people across the pond thought the people icons were handbags.

WAAAAAHHHHHHHH
ROTF L!!!!!!
*Snort*

1:23 pm

lola100

smaller- yes! I didn't know something could be po5/16!!!

1:24 pm

mamabear

I called them purses..... doesn't everybody????

1:24 pm

snowyowl

Smeltzdog a dip in that sauce has not done you any good at all!!!!!!!!

1:24 pm

Smeltzdog

Can I bring my manpurse in the cuzzi?

1:25 pm

hurshy

it's not a purse, it's a person - simple babble mistake, cutting off last letter

1:25 pm

snowyowl

Only if you waterproof it first smeltz

1:25 pm

lola100

*lola uses mommy voice* Smeltz, we knew they were people, we just like to call them our handbags! Oh and.....body bits!

1:25 pm

mamabear

Sure, Smeltz - but put it in a ziplock so your bio doesn't disintegrate and clog the drain

1:25 pm

DirtBikeGirl

Hey, don't knock the Alfredo Sauce until you've tried it. Actually quite nice except it makes me hungry for Italian food...

1:25 pm

Smeltzdog

LOL - lola...stop...I just wet my bun!

1:26 pm

hurshy

no dog, no horses. Scared of dogs, except the ones that smile at me and are my friends, and haven't been up close to a horse (I think). Am a city girl.

te6 is a small stand for tea

5:06 pm

smaller

agree with myownvenus,
lots of archaic words, and a lot of brit stuff

5:07 pm

Tuva

the te6 is a real word... but the goofy te5 is not.. no matter what anyone says... not a word.

the last in6/18?
in5/10 (before the in7) and pluralize it
the first in6/18 is also adding a letter to an in5/10 but not to pluralise

maybe when you're married tuva will buy your pro status so you can have an icon,
what's his earning potential? can he afford to keep you in the lifestyle of babble?

dunno Lola. Tuva seems to have vanished. Have I been jilted already??????

driftingmind: we all help eachother complete the puzzle. If someone needs help, they ask for certain words. They always say the first 2 letters and then the 2 numbers. The first number is the number of letters in the word and the second is the points for the word. They know the first two letters and number of letters and points already because they are posted on babbler's anon (see link on right side of page). Hope this helps.

6:22 pm

ohromujici

lol poos' mom. Let us know if you need help. I won't be much help because I have 12 words so far. lol. : )

saffronharvest

yo 4/6 sounds like a famous pianist

6:29 pm

ohromujici

ccal: there isn't really a good or bad score. I think everyone would agree that this is a game that you get better at with time. You just have to practice and ask for help when you need it. Eventually you start to remember weird babble words from past puzzles, etc.. Keep your chin up.

6:29 pm

Bubble and squeak is vegetables and gravy from a dinner reheated torgone some people fry the veg as a sort of pancake and pour over the warmed gravy and some peopl;e just heat up the whole thing together.

7:26 pm

torgone

It's me birthday today. Reminds me of a Benny Hill skit. A bloke skips into a pub singing:"21 today! 21 today!" A woman hears him and says,"Congratulations! Let me buy you a drink." He downs the mug of ale, and skips out singing, "22 today! 22 today!"
I love Benny Hill.

7:28 pm

Oh, poor torgone. You might try some black currant or blackberry juice. Should fix you right up -- stuffed with anti-oxidants (so you won't rust) and vit C.

Also, boil a few cloves (chopped coarsely) of garlic, put a towel over your head and breath in the steam.

Then boil your icon and throw in a few egg noodles.

Bushido Rei. It's one of the virtues of the samurai code, which requires that the samurai practice courtesy & respect (even to those who don't deserve it). I was considering it as a tattoo when I was going through a particularly trying time with some fellow board members.

9:22 pm

ohromujici

lol GG.

9:23 pm

GreyWoulf

Ohrom, I hate to think how much you're paying for your place

9:24 pm

GreyWoulf

ruff, I have the kanji for Tao as a tattoo

9:24 pm

ohromujici

Wow, Ruffho. That is really cool. I don't have a tatoo (pain=bad) but I love the idea of making that a permanent reminder to yourself by putting it some place that you have to see every day. Very cool.

9:25 pm

ruffh2o

I haven't gotten a tattoo yet, because I haven't been able to settle on a design for longer than 4 years. And I didn't get that particular tattoo because I didn't need to be reminded of that particular group of idiots.

9:26 pm

groovygranny

Ohrom we have a 4 bdr 2 bath ........ not big but big enough

9:26 pm

ruffh2o

However, it makes a great picture to hang on the wall of the office. :)

9:26 pm

groovygranny

I got a mine 4 yrs ago when my 1st grandbaby was born . I have a purple rose on my ankle

9:27 pm

ohromujici

GW: that makes two of us. I hate to think how much I am paying for my place too. : ) 1500/month for a small hovel in alphabet town. It is liveable and just big enough for me and a couple of rats that have taken refuge here (kidding). The good thing about NY is that with a city like this, I could live in a tent because I am never home anyway.

9:27 pm

ruffh2o

Cool tattoo, GW. Great minds think alike.

9:27 pm

GreyWoulf

Very cool, groovy

9:27 pm

groovygranny

I would love to get my name below it now Grey

9:28 pm

ruffh2o

Isn't the ankle a painful spot for a tat, something about lack of muscle & being close to the bone?

9:28 pm

groovygranny

Ohrom it did hurt I can't lie .....

9:28 pm

GreyWoulf

Thx, ruff - BTW are you taveling on business or plesasure

9:29 pm

9:30 pm

Hi MAMA

9:30 pm

EasternBlue

hi mama bear...

9:30 pm

GreyWoulf

The trick with tattoos (at least for me) is that while painful, the endorphin rush triggered reduces the pain to the equivalent of a medium sunburn

9:30 pm

ruffh2o

lol, granny.
hi, mama. conversation about tattoos & ny apartments.

9:30 pm

GreyWoulf

Hey MAMA, we're discussing tattoos

9:30 pm

9:31 pm

groovygranny

Mama !! how are you tonight?
Ohrom, my mom is in Ozone Park and they bought a house about 9 yrs ago .. their mortage is outrageous

9:31 pm

groovygranny

don't run too fast you might spill them !

9:31 pm

ruffh2o

I've heard similar about the rush, GW. Now, if I could just settle on a design for the tattoo, I'd be set.

9:32 pm

mamabear

tattoos & apartments... interesting combo
Thanks ohro - how did you know.... *takes one glass from ohro.. mmm. shaken not stirred*

9:32 pm

mab

MB! Good to have you back! Someone was just looking for you and I told them you'd gone to bed. Perhaps she or he is still lurking....

9:32 pm

groovygranny

Grey did I tell you my car is fixed now and it wasn't covered by the warranty ..... isn't that a surprise??

9:32 pm

ohromujici

Geek alert: I once had a dream of getting a tatoo. I am a scientist and I wanted to get a chemical formula tatooed on my self (never decided where). I wanted to get 2,4,6 tri-nitrotolulene which is ...........TNT (dynomyte). lol I am such a geek.

9:32 pm

GreyWoulf

The other cardinal rule is to never get the name of a significant other since you never know what the future will hold for the two of you together

9:33 pm

ruffh2o

I tried to tell that to my boyfriend when he got that mermaid tattoo & used me as the model.

9:33 pm

9:33 pm

GreyWoulf

9:33 pm

ohromujici

9:35 pm

GreyWoulf

It's not so much an omen groovy as smart thinking

per ohrom's illustraion -- what do you do if you don't have the money to remove/cover up the name of someone that you no longer care about, or in the worst case scenario, actively dislike intensely?

9:35 pm

ruffh2o

what does a diabetic tat look like?

9:36 pm

groovygranny

9:46 pm

ruffh2o

OK, I'm done, and I really really do have to start packing. 'Nite, all. I don't know if I'll be babbling much until Monday.

9:49 pm

ohromujici

9:50 pm

mamabear

I take it everyone is done with the business portion of the program?

9:51 pm

ohromujici

lol mamma. : )

Ruff: a martini mustache is where your hair and face are slightly pink from plunging your whole head into a cosmo martini glass.

9:51 pm

ruffh2o

BYE !!!!

ruffh2o

9:53 pm

laughbabe

Hello beautiful

9:54 pm

EvaNadine

watching the last few minutes of the Amazing Race here!

9:54 pm

GreyWoulf

Family night was good, although I was late getting home from work, so I missed reading the baby her bedtime story

9:54 pm

ohromujici

Someone is working on the puzzle? lol

9:54 pm

mamabear

I didn't wait til it changed at midnite - I did the whole thing between breaks and lunch, and then after work. It was a relatively painless one today I thought.

9:55 pm

ohromujici

I am watching election coverage. It is a crazy old night on CNN.

9:55 pm

groovygranny

Grey you really are a terrific dad ... I know I always say that but you really are

9:55 pm

mamabear

in 7 - in + if you win a tournament, you take home this big gold or silver dust collector.

9:56 pm

GreyWoulf

Well, you did mention that these late nights are beginning to wreak havoc for you...

9:57 pm

EvaNadine

anyone else here watch the amazing race or am i the only addict?

9:57 pm

mamabear

havoc is my middle name
mama havoc bear

9:57 pm

groovygranny

Mama i've heard that clue alot tonight and still can't figure it out

9:57 pm

ohromujici

Grey: what is your baby's name? How old?

9:58 pm

ohromujici

Evanadine: I love that show. I got addicted last season.

9:58 pm

mamabear

try this groovy - the word directly above it - the in 5/10 - add to it the anagram for For Your Information minus the I

9:59 pm

shorty

gg im glad im not the only one that cant figyre that out because that would be trophy

9:59 pm

mamabear

No evanadine - I never even heard of the show! I watch very little TV...

9:59 pm

GreyWoulf

Thanks groovy, I will never get tired of hearing you say it though, it gives me a sense of validation

ohrom - her name is Kristianna and she is 2 years old

9:59 pm

mamabear

shorty - that is absolutely correct - just spell it differently

9:59 pm

groovygranny

what a pretty name ! thats how old my granson Steven Tyler is

10:00 pm

groovygranny

Shorty I can't get it either lol dont feel bad

10:01 pm

Charm

Grey - 2 is a wonderful, for both of you. She is learning to express herself and every new thing is wonderful to her. And she is starting to interact with you and develop her own personality (although that was probably there from day 1!).

10:01 pm

groovygranny

tomorrow is our visit with the baby ..... we get a whole hour to see him

10:01 pm

Smeltzdog

*calling from tin can inside* is it safe?

*i guess this can doesn't work*

10:01 pm

mamabear

shorty & granny - in + trophy spelled differently....

10:02 pm

groovygranny

Charm , 2 is such a great age ...... our grandson is learning so fast and he's soo interesting to spend time with

10:02 pm

shorty

got it ty ty

10:02 pm

mamabear

Smeltzie - a little late for the date aren't we??? *mamabear tap tap tapping her paw on the den floor*

10:03 pm

GreyWoulf

groovy - she picked her name, we had three choices
Veronica, Kassandra, and Kristianna but couldn't decide
When Kirsten held her for the first time, she said all three names -- Kristianna was the only one she responded to

10:03 pm

ohromujici

That is a pretty name Grey. Do you guys have a name for the future boy yet? Have you broken it to your daughter that she will have a brother soon? If not, that will be a fun conversation. : )

10:03 pm

mamabear

That's a beautiful story, GW!

10:03 pm

Smeltzdog

I checked in at 9:09 but I don't think the tin can was hooked up right.

10:04 pm

groovygranny

what pretty name you all picked out for her and I like how you did that

10:04 pm

ohromujici

Hey smeltz. Your icon is displaying full frontal nudity tonight. Just thought that I would mention that.

10:05 pm

groovygranny

Ohrom when I told my son he was going to have a baby brother he was soo angry at me . He didn't want anythig to do with me for about a week!

10:05 pm

mamabear

Smeltzie - is that a bun or do you have really long floppy ears?

10:05 pm

GreyWoulf

Thanks Charm -- it IS wonderful - she has enough language to get most of her message across and is such a vocabulary sieve... the other day I mentioned 'booby trap'ping drawers and doors to stop her from opening them and she immediately wanted to go looking for booby traps! (LOL)

10:05 pm

groovygranny

Smeltz ! good to see you again

10:06 pm

shorty

is that a hot dog or are you happy to see me lol

10:07 pm

mamabear

groovy - I love your icon!!! It's so YOU!!!

10:07 pm

EasternBlue

1 word to go...

10:07 pm

groovygranny

Grey they are soo verbal at 2 ... Tyler just started putting sentecnces together a few months ago. It was raining and lightning one day he was here and he came running telling me Oh Grandpa Im soo scared ..save me!

10:07 pm

mamabear

Smeltzie, SMELTZIE!!! Turn up the volume on your can!

10:08 pm

groovygranny

thanks Mama .. is it the groovy one or the cow?

10:08 pm

groovygranny

BTW Grey he calls me Grandpa lol

10:08 pm

EasternBlue

I confess...I had to finish...thank goodness for a2z!!! The "i's" did not have it for me tonight!!

10:08 pm

mamabear

the groovy one, of course!!!!

10:09 pm

ohromujici

LOL at mamma and shorty. Long floppy ears.......I love that. : )

10:09 pm

GreyWoulf

As for the new baby, it looks like 'Sebastian Evan' is the frontrunner. Nothing else has even suggested itself to us.
And we have told Kristianna that she will have a baby brother, but she doesn't quite comprehend the concept, though she will point to Mommy's belly and say "baby inside".... but then she will point to my belly and say the same thing (lol)

10:09 pm

groovygranny

Ohhhhhhhhhh I switched it when Grey said he had cookies ..... try refresh

10:09 pm

mamabear

the i's..... if we were playing in the spring, would they be called the i's of March?

10:10 pm

groovygranny

Grey thats wild ! my husband wanted our first to be Sebastain after his grandfather

10:10 pm

EasternBlue

*cartwheels*
I'm done!!!!!!!!!!!

10:10 pm

groovygranny

but we had a girl Stephanie Marie

10:11 pm

Smeltzdog

I didn't have the string connected...much better mama...luckily I didn't hear any of the bad things you and orho said.

10:11 pm

mamabear

no cow. still groovy.
One of my daughter's middle name is Marie too! Angela Marie

10:12 pm

groovygranny

Blue I love your cartwheels !

10:12 pm

ohromujici

LMAO, Grey. That is funny. I like the name. Sebastian has been on my short list for a while (for a future cat--not a baby). I am too busy/immature/air-brained to have a baby. I would probaby leave the baby in a cab and then have to go to lost and found to retrieve it.

10:12 pm

mamabear

You mean about the full frontal nudity, and your long floppy ears? Good I'm glad you didn't hear that.

10:12 pm

groovygranny

Mama , but her name is now Emily Claire

10:13 pm

EasternBlue

well all...I would love to stay & chat, but my bed is calling me...

want to catch the election results on tv too...

G'night all!!

10:13 pm

mamabear

groovygranny - Stephanie Marie.... Emily Claire? You changed it???

10:14 pm

GreyWoulf

10:14 pm

Smeltzdog

10:15 pm

mamabear

10:15 pm

groovygranny

Smeltz I was looking at the clock ....

10:15 pm

JBsAnno

'Lo, all 15 words to go to my first FINISH.
Help! Your moral support is appreciated!

10:15 pm

EasternBlue

e + the first lo 4/4
religious connotation - Christ wore a lo_ _ cloth

10:15 pm

mamabear

Just sad because you are late with the cuzzi party!

10:15 pm

groovygranny

10:15 pm

GreyWoulf

EasternBlue

*looks sheepish*

10:16 pm

GreyWoulf

10:16 pm

ohromujici

Smeltz: things would perk up if you opened the jacuzzi.

10:17 pm

EasternBlue

Any other clues needed?

10:17 pm

mamabear

Okee doke - I will try to resend them from work tomorrow.

10:17 pm

JBsAnno

10:17 pm

GreyWoulf

Good to hear, JB!

Go, JB, go! Go, JB, go!!

10:17 pm

groovygranny

I think I hear my son with the car brb nope Blue I think im done but thanks

10:17 pm

Smeltzdog

before I open the cuzzi...the Mrs. Dog made some cookies!

10:18 pm

JBsAnno

Yo, Woulf! Thanks for the cheers.
Okay, I'm here, but I'm concentrating, and I'll keep you updated.

10:18 pm

EasternBlue

alrightie then...

10:18 pm

mamabear

10:18 pm

GreyWoulf

Sounds good, I'm now at 51 myself :)

10:19 pm

mamabear

10:19 pm

Smeltzdog

they are D...E...licious

10:19 pm

ohromujici

Smeltz: I will trade you a cookie for a martini.

10:19 pm

GreyWoulf

Not yet, my main prob is that I like to chat tooo much:D

10:20 pm

mamabear

I'm still trying to get the alfredo sauce out of my fur btw.... do you know if babbler's boyfriend ever came back? Not nice of him to talk marriage and then disappear like that!

10:21 pm

GreyWoulf

?????

10:22 pm

mamabear

a newbie that babbler was chatting with ... i was going to be her maid of honor - i have fetish for dyed shoes

10:22 pm

JBsAnno

Speaking of to's, G-W, did you catch the news about T.O.'s apology to the Eagles? (somewhat rabid Eagles fan here, it's a Philly thing)

10:23 pm

Jacula

Hello folks. Only read back on a bit of the log but, talking of using resources, I only had to use a2z to find one word on this grid earlier - so stupid! It was a pe4 (anagram of the glassy pa4). It was a word I SHOULD have seen!

10:23 pm

JBsAnno

Dye 'em & wear 'em anyway, Mama!
Um, would those be shoes to dye for?
(okay, okay, back to the puzzle)

10:23 pm

ohromujici

Have a good night everyone. I am getting sleepy. too many cookies and too many martini's tonight. See you all tomorrow.

10:24 pm

groovygranny

hmmmmm no car , no son , no phone call

10:24 pm

mamabear

g'nite ohro ... i think I am ready to hibernate myself.

10:24 pm

JBsAnno

'Nite, O!

10:24 pm

mamabear

groovy - when was he supposed to be home?

10:24 pm

groovygranny

nite Ohrom !!! see you tomorrow =)

10:24 pm

Smeltzdog

*turned on fan to help cape fly in the wind*

I'm here to help GW!

10:24 pm

GreyWoulf

MAMA - Oooh

JB - Yeah, what a fiasco -- from TO it's too little too late
I know all about rabid Eagles fans - Kirsten beats the couch in to submission every game and Kristianna thinks that an eagle says "Go!go!go!" :D

10:25 pm

mamabear

Smeltzie - you make me laugh!!!!!

10:25 pm

groovygranny

well remember his GF was coming ? I told him he could use the car but he had to come home and park it here .. well ii'ts 11:30 and he's not here

10:25 pm

GreyWoulf

G'Nite ohrom -- rest well

10:25 pm

Jacula

Manolos - shoes to die for! My Mum rang me the other day, all excited to tell me about some 'comfy' shoes she'd bought. 'Mum,' I said. 'You may be 70, but you, as the original shoe and bag fanatic, are showing your age if you're getting exciting about comfy shoes!'

10:26 pm

mamabear

yes I remember, "pimp daddy caddy"... how late is he?

10:26 pm

GreyWoulf

lol, Smeltz
Don't worry I'll let you know

10:26 pm

JBsAnno

Get up on that ottoman, Smeltz! The cape will billow out more.

10:26 pm

Jacula

*exited.

(Note to self: Must ask DR_God to add an edit/delete facility to the chat log.)

10:27 pm

groovygranny

about an hour ...... and he has to be at work at 8 , dosen't have his clothes either . Man is my hubby going to be furious !

10:27 pm

mamabear

Didn't you read the disclaimer in those superman movies "don't try this at home"...

10:27 pm

Jacula

Or even *excited. GRR! No wonder the blooming chat log's so long. LOL.

10:27 pm

groovygranny

but Mama they put that in the fine print don't they ??

10:28 pm

JBsAnno

Yeah, Mama, but nothing about furniture in the disclaimers...

10:28 pm

mamabear

Yes, fine print. But look at the size of those coke bottles on him! He could read it a mile away!

10:28 pm

groovygranny

Mama I can't read the fine print without my glasses on

10:29 pm

groovygranny

Mama thats why I don't wear mine ......... the house looks less dusty and cleaner without then on lol

10:29 pm

mamabear

That's ok granny - you're not standing on an ottoman wearing a cape in front of a fan either!

10:30 pm

groovygranny

thats what you think LOL I stood on the coffee table one time and almost got my head cut off by the ceiling fan lol

10:30 pm

Smeltzdog

ok...first, JB, The ottoman broke the last time you were skiing for a klondike bar...second, mama, why do you have to make fun of my eye sight..."he git it from his papa"

10:30 pm

Jacula

Groovygranny - I can't read fine print WITH my glasses these days - have to remove them to read and sew.

Mamabear - I've been hibernating myself these past few days. Hibernation is an excellent idea - you eat all you like, get nice and fat, sleep away the bad weather and come out slim again in time for bikini weather.

10:31 pm

groovygranny

but I was wearing a thong and sunglasses < long story>

10:31 pm

groovygranny

Jac I have to use a magnifying glass sometimes too lol

10:32 pm

Jacula

Groovygranny - What you just said about the house looking less dusty without your specs is exactly what my Mum says! Must try it myself real soon!

10:32 pm

Smeltzdog

*took off glasses so he can't see what GG wrote*

10:32 pm

JBsAnno

Smeltz, sorry about the ottoman, I'll send up another as soon as I finish (yes, FINISH) this one; it'll be my first!

10:33 pm

mamabear

SHE SAID SHE WAS WEARING A THONG AND SUNGLASSES AND STANDING ON THE COFFEE TABLE!!!!!

10:34 pm

JBsAnno

Yes, BUT I'M TRYING TO FINALLY FINISH A PUZZLE!

10:34 pm

groovygranny

hehe Smeltz ...... Mrs Dog huh? hubby plays online as Pigman . His friends call me Ma Hog

10:34 pm

JBsAnno

I'll ask her tomorrow about it to spice up the log!

10:34 pm

Smeltzdog

what do you need JB?

10:35 pm

groovygranny

mama it's ok ...... it was new years eve lol

10:35 pm

Jacula

Can't see computer screen without specs though! There's a webcam pic of me, which you lot will NEVER see, peering at screen with a 'Safeway' carrier bag on my head. (Daughter had dyed my hair and we were waiting for dye to take. It keeps head warm and makes dye take better if you put a plastic cap on during the process.) Pic is not a pretty sight! LOL.

10:35 pm

mamabear

I wasn't yelling at you JB, making a neon sign for Smeltzie

10:36 pm

groovygranny

Jac I do the same thing too when I dye mine , then throw a warm towel over it .. color lasts longer and it comes out nice and shiney

10:36 pm

GreyWoulf

ay, please?

10:36 pm

Jacula

ONLY a thong and sunglasses? I think this may well be another pic Babblers at Large will not see. LOL.

10:36 pm

JBsAnno

I have
po 5/12, 4/5, 4/7 (the 1st 3 in the list) and 4/9, the 2nd to last in the list.

1st to6/18 - a heavy weight plus 'to allow' or what a landlord does with a property.

11:16 pm

groovygranny

(((*hug back*)))

11:17 pm

JBsAnno

Or a thong, GG? Nitie night!

11:17 pm

Jacula

Night GG. Wouldn't know about the prom dress thing. Proms have only come over to UK in past decade or so. So nice to see the kids al dressed up nicely though and going off in the stretched limos.

11:20 pm

Jacula

Mary - eu6/24 - normal, unlaboured breathing. Sounds a bit like a sleeping complaint connected to snoring, but change the 'a' to 'eu'.

11:20 pm

GreyWoulf

I am missing:

to4/6
tr5/10
tr7/28
tr6/18
and one more tr but not sure which one

11:21 pm

pinecone05

I need a clue for the pl 5 / 12

11:22 pm

Jacula

tr7/28 - builds off your tr4 & 5. It is a poem or stanza of eight lines with a rhyme scheme abaaabab, in which the fourth and seventh lines are the same as the first, and the eighth line is the same as the second.

11:22 pm

JBsAnno

Woulf, I'll trade you a guy's name to- - for a to 6/18 (the last to in the list)

11:22 pm

marysimi

Great clue Jacula, thanks. Any help with the two tr words: tr7/28 and tr 6/18?

11:23 pm

GreyWoulf

JB take the legal to5 and add an 'n'

11:23 pm

Jacula

tr6/18 - 1. A god of the sea, son of Poseidon and Amphitrite, portrayed as having the head and trunk of a man and the tail of a fish.
2. The satellite of Neptune that is seventh in distance from the planet.

11:24 pm

JBsAnno

Got it, GW! Thanks!

11:25 pm

Jacula

pinecone - scroll back a page or maybe 2 for the pl5/12 clue.

11:26 pm

pinecone05

thank you! It is my last word

11:27 pm

GreyWoulf

Hoody Hoo!!!
Thanks for the great clues at the end, Jacula

I am now done

11:27 pm

JBsAnno

4 (count 'em, 4) tr words left to my first finish!
Whoo HOOOOO! (already celebrating, but quietly via keyboard!)

11:27 pm

Jacula

Grey Woulf - to4/6 - British PM's 1st name.
tr5/10 - add a consonant to the threesome word above it.

11:28 pm

JBsAnno

You are an inspiration, Woulf!

11:28 pm

nenaluli

GreyWoulf

Well , Wolf is the pathfinder and the guide
(*looks down with false modesty*)

11:29 pm

Jacula

ap5/12 - on or toward the left side of a ship. Otherwise, think of a place a ship ends up in.

11:29 pm

GreyWoulf

Hi nena - a+ a nautical direction

11:29 pm

nenaluli

Awesome, thank you. How about eu 6/24?

11:30 pm

JBsAnno

Okay, I'll just give ya' a scratch behind the ears.
How's that?

11:30 pm

Jacula

eu6/24 - see my clue on log at 11:20. Scroll back a bit.

11:31 pm

GreyWoulf

Well folks, I have to go --- my external reason for not sticking around has been very patient with me by letting me finish, but the time has come for me to say "Good Night"

11:31 pm

nenaluli

yay! Or 5/12?

11:31 pm

Jacula

G'night Wolfie.

11:32 pm

GreyWoulf

JB - scritchies are always good, hugs are also a valid medium of trade

11:33 pm

Jacula

or5/12 - scroll back to my clue off 11:04.

11:33 pm

JBsAnno

Could you be parting with a clue for the last tr 4/4 (before the gold weight?) It's my LAST word!

11:34 pm

GreyWoulf

Don't know why I just doubled up there... system hiccupped

Anyway, Good Night to all

(*hugs to everyone*)

TTFN

11:34 pm

Nena,
The not-coffee hot beverage + a pl 4/7 word missing an "l'

11:40 pm

nenaluli

Yay! Thanks. Po 6/36?

11:43 pm

nenaluli

Pleeeeeease. I only have 2 words to go and the puzzle will be over in 17 mins.

11:43 pm

JBsAnno

N - think what rhymes with "horn" (a la Jacula) and a naughty movie, or several naughty movies...there's a run of po words based on that

11:44 pm

JBsAnno

I'm here for ya, N!

11:44 pm

nenaluli

Not Po 6/21. Po 6/36. The last Po.

11:45 pm

JBsAnno

Add an "ed" ending to your last po 4/9

11:46 pm

nenaluli

Awesome, don't know how I missed that. Thank you :)
And finally, to 6/18 (the first one)?

11:48 pm

JBsAnno

A VERY heavy weight 3 letter word, + a 3 letter word meaning "to allow"

11:49 pm

nenaluli

Yay! I'm done. Thank you!

11:49 pm

JBsAnno

Yay! yw!!!
And now, to bed, to dream of perhaps finishing 2 puzzles in a row...
Goodnight!
