70 and I think I am getting annoyed with the elusive q :D
12:27 am
Babbler

Tuva, now you're just showing off..... :)
12:28 am
GreyWoulf

It's very tricky typing whrn you have a cat lying in your lap, pulling on your hands because she is insisting on attention :D
12:30 am
brandyjack

You mean the second q5/16, the russian beer?
12:31 am
Babbler

grrrrrrr.....
12:33 am
GreyWoulf

Bab - that's my line...
12:34 am
zubie

No, brandyjack. I've got that and its measure ;) But I'm missing a q and I don't know which it is! I refuse to look at the stats yet - the second letter stats, I mean. :)
12:34 am
Babbler

lol GW!
12:35 am
Babbler

zubie - I'm in awe of you, mate! :)
12:35 am
Tuva

lol....
second letter stats on a Qu???
12:35 am
brandyjack

add a vowel to the litre equivalent
12:35 am
Babbler

and you of course, Brandyjack! only joshing with the growls. :)
12:38 am
zubie

Arrgh! What do you know! The only option I didn't try! :) Thanks, brandyjack!

This is my second week here. [Week of actually playing games; I missed ten days between my first week and this week]. At first I relied heavily on the stats lists but now I'm trying not to!
12:38 am
Tuva

Russian beer qu??? Help?
12:39 am
zubie

Don't laugh at me, Tuva! :P I said second letter stats, but I actually meant the tile count and point score list! *hangs head in shame* ;D
12:39 am
brandyjack

After a while, once you become familiar with the oddball words this game spews, even a2z becomes superfluous. But those 3 sq words are going to drive you nuts. I got the big one because it seemed familiar. The 2 slightly smaller ones occupied me for a while..
12:40 am
GreyWoulf

thx for the tip re: Q5, brandyjack
12:40 am
Babbler

for a while??? we're only 39 mins into the game.....
(eeek, there's no hope for me today!)
12:41 am
zubie

Oh dear. Words to drive me nuts? Am I not nuts enough already? :) Okay. I shall work on them right now so that I can yell 'brandyjack, help!' when I get stuck! :D
12:41 am
brandyjack

Of which i spent 25 trying to get those 3 of the 60 i currently have...
12:42 am
Babbler

12:42 am
Tuva

zubie... I have 64 words... and two of those are the easy qu's.... it is the other one I am seeking
12:45 am
zubie

Tuva - which q's are you calling easy? For the ones I found easy might not be the same as yours. I have to quantities and a beer.
12:45 am
zubie

Resurfacing to say that I've got two of the sq's! *Dives back into the grid*
12:45 am
Tuva

the beer one, I think....

Good morning everyone. Could someone give another hint for the ro whale? I googled the definition, but cameup empty.
6:23 am
Jera

It almost rhymes with sequel, but with o & a rather than e's...
6:24 am
Jera

Could someone help me with this pesky po6/24, please? I'm getting a headache with 6 words to go...

jera - just spent 10 mins looking myself. found a tree
6:26 am

Maybe...?
6:26 am
Jacula

Hello everyone.

Eva - for the 'ro' whale think of the sound a lion makes and take out a vowel, and then add the 1st 4 letters of a famous chocolate mix named like an address (******* St). Hope that helps.
6:26 am
fit1

Well now I can't find my name on the rankings anywhere. I guess I've just diappeared. Yikes!!!
6:27 am
Jera

Could I have some details about this alleged tree...?
6:27 am
Jacula

Fit1 - You're at 824 o the 'Cream of the Crop' rankings list.
6:27 am
Poo's Mom

jera - "well liked" then drop the middle vowel
6:27 am
fit1

Not only can't I find myself, but the print is so small I may go blind reading it. LOL
6:28 am
Eva

Jacula & Jera that was great teamwork! Never would have gotten it otherwise.
6:29 am
Jacula

The 'po' tree. A tall, thin tree one type of which is a Lombardy. Often seen planted in rows.
6:30 am
fit1

Thanks Jacula. I never would have found that. And i'm not sure if it's good, but at least i'm there. LOL
6:32 am
Jera

I am ashamed I didn't see the tree... it's on of my favorites, especially the tulip variety...
6:33 am
Jera

Now I just have 5 evil h's to knock out... *groans*
6:37 am
Jacula

Well, I've nailed down 95 words and I think that's a good point at which to go off and do some non-Babble stuff - leave myself a few words for this evening.

Joel, take your ha4/6 and add 2 letters.
8:33 am
e_gurl85

8:34 am
Smeltzdog

I can't tell anymore if I've moved up the rankings.

I asked Dr. God to put the rankings from 1-1000 back on the left side. He said it would make things look to busy.
8:35 am
Jen

Oh yeah, as if the new way doesn't look at all busy!!
8:35 am
e_gurl85

yeah it would but i would like to know too maybe he will think of another way soon

S&G are NEVER useless. I agree completely with former speakers :)
9:34 am
ScoutsMom

Well, I'm sure they're all taking up space in my brain that could be used for other things. I even know the chatter between songs on the "Concert in Central Park" album for some reason, and that can't be healthy.
9:35 am

Bye, Minski--see you over lunch, as usual.

Okay. Briefly back to the Simon & Garfunkel issue and egurl; I just played her "Mrs. Robinson." She said, "Oh! I've heard that song! I thought it was by those brothers in England, the Ringling Brothers or whoever." After much deciphering, I discovered she thought it was the Beatles. It is now my new job to educate egurl on the finer points of popular music.

harpjane

Nice clue, and I got the S word, but I thought I would point out that it is not a respectful term for "Indian Maiden." I wouldn't use that word in Montana! I'm not sure of the whole story, but I believe it was a perjorative term in one of the native languages. The white settlers decided to apply the term to every woman.

It's the equivalent of calling Mother Theresa a whore.

Just so you know!

Didn't the Ringling Brothers sing Unchained Melody?


*falls over laughing and nearly wets himself...
10:04 am
Vicuna

Now, egurl, don't feel defensive, I didn't mean to denigrate you. But Simon and Garfunkel, Glenn Miller, and the Beatles are not musical trivia. They are major parts of music history that have led to the music you listen to know, and without which that music would never have been possible. It should be fun for you to learn a bit more about them!

i don't know if mrs. robinson was in forrest gump.

Than that's OK -- feeling bad for positive reasons is a perfectly valid, if ironic, path to self improvement
10:22 am

You got that right, scoutsmom -- I sometimes wonder why they targetted Barbie for presenting an unrealistic female image when the comic industry has been doing the same thing for at least as long --- I can't remember the last superheroine I saw portrayed with a realistic upper body shape!

I don't understand why people think teachers only work nine months of the year-- everyone else get's holidays, what's more they get to choose when they take them -- teachers don't! Teachers are also at work for at least one week after school ends and two weeks before school begins each year and the good ones are probably putting in 10 hour days when class is in.

SQ6

minski! you're back!
12:06 pm

anyone like to share a clue for ha6/24, please?
12:07 pm

Yep. I'm here most days but only for a short amount of time here and there so have trouble keeping up with chat. Best friend coming up for a long weekend and guest room is a disaster zone so won't be here for long. Also haven't eaten lunch yet. Not a bad grid today but challenging. I like the challenging ones that aren't ridiculous.
12:07 pm
smaller

may i have a clue on the am7 please?
12:08 pm
Jera

sq6 = a protective structure resembling a scale... play around with ending meaning like & alternative plural for the other 2
12:08 pm
walnutchen

scoutsmom: ha6/24:
1 : of or relating to the blood or blood vessels
2 : relating to or situated on the side of the spinal cord where the heart and chief blood vessels are placed
12:08 pm

12:13 pm
Jera

sq8 = sq6-like, ending same as sugar, too. (drop last letter of base word)
12:13 pm
ScoutsMom

babbler: for the sq8, take your sq6 and change the suffix. rhymes with the part of your face with which you detect smells.
12:13 pm
Jera

Good grief, completion... what I put doesn't sound decent, LOL
12:14 pm

12:34 pm
Niamh

Babbler, I took some basic courses in child development and they claim that all the neuro connections are made by the time a child is I think 8 years old? So the growing part... I don't know, but brain cells do die and they can be regenerated... I think (punny hun?)

12:36 pm

I keep reading that whenever we learn something new, we're forming new connections in our brains, which is why brain-stretching games like this and Sudoku, crosswords, etc are so good for us.... so that tells me our brains are forever growing.... no??

the brain isn;t growing- but the number of connections between the neurons are increasing
12:38 pm
Niamh

I was told that the reason we can't pronounce different languages correctly (and visa versa) was because those neuro pathways were burned bridges... I'm not an expert though... so maybe?!?
12:39 pm
Niamh

CrysAnnMarie, that makes sense!
12:40 pm
Babbler

that's interesting..... I'm good at pronouncing languages correctly, but my Dad was good at languages too, so maybe I inherited his ability?? I've always wondered why some people couldn't do that. Interesting...!!

hurshy

hurshy chiming in to say that while it is easier to learn when you're young, any learning at any age forms new neuro-connections. there was a cool study where they looked at two groups of men born only 2 days apart, but one birthday was first in the Vietnam draft and one was last. the ones who didn't get drafted went to college, and years later, they had higher IQs.
12:43 pm

Using textspeak in this chat is like going to a foreign country and speaking English REALLY LOUDLY. If communication is your goal, you have to write what people will understand.

"ra6" is shorthand for one of the words you can find. It starts with "ra" and is worth 6 points (see the numbers on each tile). Make sense? I was a newbie once too -- you'll get better with practice!
2:12 pm

mary- go through the ones you have and see if you can arrange the letters or add letters (s, al, etc) to form new words

2:14 pm

ra 6 means starts with ra and has 6 letters. . . and i still need a hint on it please!
2:14 pm
Moozey

Marymelody - Ra6 21 means a word beginning with RA that is 6 letters in length and the score when added up equals to 21.
2:14 pm
knuckles01

Just FYI, ha 4/5 means the word starts with "ha" has 4 letters in it, and is worth 5 points.

Someone tell me if I'm saying this wrong! :)
2:14 pm
joelgee

ra6/24 (for instance) means:
ra=1st two letters
6=number of letters in word
24=points for word (numbers on "tiles" x bonus depending on number of letters in word.

the stress is obvious. It is getting to you. Y'know, sometimes you have to tell people things even if they're not going to get it. It vents the pressure for you.
2:38 pm
Babbler

no M_T, listen to your instincts and what your heart is telling you. If you're unhappy, then that's what matters. Don't fall in the trap of always forgiving others and beating yourself up for nothing. Don't make excuses for other people's bad behaviour, in other words.

7:35 pm
Julie

New stats remind me of when a friend and I used to play babble while I was studying for the bar. At the end, we'd figure mean, mode, and median scores. Does that sounds a little anal? LOL
7:35 pm
Jacula

Evening Charm.
7:35 pm
Charm

do5 - similar to your roof type, but an adj. - different ending.
7:36 pm
Charm

Hi, Jacula. What's going on today? Seems slow!
7:37 pm
Jacula

Julie - Anal? No. Just a bit geeky. LOL.
7:37 pm
Jacula

Only just arrived again Charm. Doesn't seem slow to me.
7:39 pm
Charm

Maybe just perspective, Jacula. Just now sitting down - cooked the entire day for company (flan, pound cake, banana bread, lamb curry, and on and on and on. I guess after all that busyness, sitting still seems slow!
7:40 pm
periwinkle

missing an or4, I have the mouth one
7:41 pm
Jacula

Charm - probably. Mind you, speed of site depends on if you're on broadband or dial-up and also IE is slower than Firefox.
7:42 pm
Minski

OR4
Take the OR4 you have, remove the last letter and double the consonant.
7:42 pm
Charm

You're probably right, Jacula. I just figured there were a lot of people playing today.
7:42 pm
Jacula

Periwinkle - your missing or4 is an acronym. Sounds like the type of film 'Hammer' make.
7:44 pm
Smeltzdog

Things are slow for the Smeltzdog too.

Dr. God - thanks for continually improving this site. It's great!


Is anyone going to join me in the cuzzi?
7:45 pm
Minski

I'm in Smeltzy. What's in it tonight?
7:46 pm
Jacula

Do you both mean it's slow when trying to input words or that the chatlog is slow? The inputting words thing (which I can't now do, since I got 'em all much earlier today) is sometimes caused by typing words in too fast.
7:47 pm
groovygranny

back !!! have 7 let yeah !!!
7:47 pm
Charm

Jacula, yes, I've noticed that there IS such a thing as typing too fast! But today, I kinda meant the chat log seems slow to load.

9:44 pm
groovygranny

Grey look at it this way ... it's better than having no job right ? beats unemployment
9:45 pm
groovygranny

Im thinking of clues for you mama
9:45 pm
mamabear

Too bad you don't have a computer there you could be like one of the dwarfs and "babble while you work.... doodle oodoo doo doo doo...." Or did they whistle? LOL
9:46 pm
GreyWoulf

MAMA - I still have 32 to locate

Groovy - you speak truth -- I definitely do not want to experience the alternative, It's too scary to consider
9:46 pm
groovygranny

6-24 Pertaining to the blood or blood vessels
9:46 pm
groovygranny

Grey that happened to hubby ... we ended up with $524 every 2 weeks for 4 months
9:46 pm
LeslieAnn

9:47 pm
GreyWoulf

Well, the doctor's office has I-net access, but I'm not allowed to use it :(

Although given hiw much time I spend chatting, perhaps that's a good thing :D
9:47 pm
groovygranny

I was thankful though that the house is paid off so we don't have a mortage or rent
9:48 pm
LeslieAnn

oh whoops, there is also one that rhymes with a humped animal in africa
9:48 pm
mamabear

I have the 2 ha 5/14's that are plurals of 4 letter words. but still am missing one
9:49 pm
groovygranny

which one is that mama? Not a babble expert like you all yet
9:49 pm
GreyWoulf

Groovy -That's the true terror here, I rent and barely make enough to cover the bills as it is
That is why I am fervently looking for another job or two to supplement my income -- of course, once I succeed, I will have much less time to Babble...

But security is worth the sacrifice :)
9:49 pm
groovygranny

LOL leslie I know which one you mean
9:50 pm
mamabear

that was it LeslieAnn - thanks!
9:51 pm
mamabear

hmmm. still missing the ha 6/24 - sorry to be such a ha-pain
9:51 pm
groovygranny

Grey I feel for you ... I have been there a few times . Sometimes the kids will say but you have soo much .. I always tell them But it took me 25 yrs .. it didn't happen overnight

Time to Babble!

9:54 pm
GreyWoulf

Hey torgone - going pretty good, if quiet tonight
9:55 pm
torgone

Mostly better, thanks! Almost done.
9:56 pm
mamabear

It's quiet because Smeltzie called it a nite early and took the jacuzzi, etc. with him... I think I got him in trouble with Mrs. Dog... bad mama
9:57 pm
GreyWoulf

How'd you do that, MAMA?
9:58 pm
mamabear

It had something to do with the cuzzi filled with hot chocolate and him covered in whipped cream.... she did not see the humor!
9:58 pm
JeeWhiz

Leslie Ann, I appreciate your clues and am stuck with Mama...Which ha4/6?
9:58 pm
torgone

Yikes! You'll have that ..
9:59 pm

9:59 pm

10:00 pm

10:01 pm
mamabear

GW - spanking?????
10:01 pm
groovygranny

I give such bad clues sorry
10:01 pm
JeeWhiz

10:02 pm
LeslieAnn

whoops i left for a minute... how about this: ha + vowel + spanish for bad
10:02 pm
GreyWoulf

mab - if I could help I would -- but I don't have the Ha6 either...
10:03 pm
mamabear

Found the one word I'm missing - thanks to stat board! The ra 5/14... granny?
10:03 pm

Mama im here .. what you use to get on the highway

10:06 pm
GreyWoulf

10:08 pm
mamabear

GW - You sure it was me? I usually remember a spanking - especially near a jacuzzi!! LOL
10:08 pm
torgone

That also gives you three other words, mab.
10:08 pm
mamabear

that's ok groovy - *bear hug*
10:09 pm
groovygranny

Mama you got Smeltzie in trouble with the Mrs. huh? what did you do???
10:09 pm
groovygranny

((( Mama )) right back at you !!!
10:09 pm
GreyWoulf

Yes MAMA, it was you -- I have proof...
10:10 pm
lapineneuve

does anyone have a hint for os 4/4?
10:10 pm
mamabear

groovy - were you around when he said he was going in the hot chocolate filled jacuzzi covered in whipped cream?
10:10 pm
mab

I have only one word left, Torgone, but don't know which. Will keep that in mind however.
10:10 pm
groovygranny

yup I read that . I thought that was funny
10:10 pm
mamabear

Proof???????? I want the negatives!!
10:11 pm
mab

os4 double the cons. add vowel at end.
10:11 pm
mamabear

mab - flip to stats - it will show you which one you are missing (in case you didn't already know)
10:11 pm
GreyWoulf

I'll send them to you, MAMA
10:12 pm
groovygranny

I had to look at the stats 3 x's and go back to figure it out ......
10:12 pm
groovygranny

along with new bifocals I hope lol I hate these ones
10:12 pm
groovygranny

Mama that made hsi wife upset???
10:13 pm
mamabear

Yeah, well I was just logging on when I read that and I said what's up that he promised to keep the whipped cream for when I was in the jacuzzi. She did not think it was funny..... it was all meant in babble fun - but she did not agree I guess... but before he left he slapped me in the face with a fish so I guess we're cool
10:13 pm
JeeWhiz

And don't forget Mama, that bears like fish in their faces.
10:14 pm
torgone

There seem to be a few who don't get the idea of babble fun...
10:14 pm
sophia

thanks to all those people helping out by giving tips!
10:14 pm
groovygranny

oh man thats too much ... she would hate me then lol I always tell hubby .. Hey there's one for you , check it out !!! he does the same to me ......... all in fun
10:14 pm
GreyWoulf

Some people are sensitive about things like that, MAMA -- to them it strikes too close to what they consider to be private intimate information
10:15 pm
groovygranny

life is too short to be soo uptight about the small things in life right? that's how I think of it
10:15 pm
mamabear

Groovy - check my post t 8:09 and thereabouts for the scoop
10:15 pm
JeeWhiz

Any clues for that la8?
10:16 pm
GreyWoulf

JW - Narnia landmark
10:16 pm
groovygranny

I went back and found it ........ no big deal jeez
10:16 pm
mamabear

Well I didn't mean any harm... I guess I'll just have to bear-have myself in the future... so unlike me.... might break out in a rash.
GW - what proof?
10:16 pm
mab

So easy JW - just look at your la4 light and follow...
10:16 pm
JeeWhiz

Never mind, it just popped into my head...like a bright light going off.
10:17 pm
groovygranny

JW that was cute lol
10:17 pm
mamabear

groovy - my philosophy too - I think life is too short to take it that seriously! Live, Love, Laugh....
10:18 pm
groovygranny

mama i've gone online before to the personals . I told hubby look I found 3 for you .. which one should I email ?? he just laughs at me
10:18 pm
GreyWoulf

MAMA - it's all in the log, not to mention Kirsten was next to me reading it at the time
10:18 pm
mamabear

GW - I understand what you are saying about the private intimate info stuff. But, hey the guy dresses in a bun, what can I say?
10:19 pm
mamabear

Oh geez. did I get YOU in trouble too? Maybe I should ban myself from the chatlog... what day was it, can I go back and read it?
10:20 pm
GreyWoulf

groovy - I like your attitude - Kirsten and I are the same way -- It's fine to look and appreciate, after all, why else do we have eyes --- just always remember that you have made a promise to each other and everything else is all good
10:20 pm
groovygranny

I can't tell you how many guy friends I've had all the years we've been married. Marcus was my best friend for years when the kids were little ....... hubby would call from work and Marcus would be at the house .. he's didn't care ........ it's called trust
10:21 pm
groovygranny

Grey I've known Steve since we were 13 yrs old and married 25 yrs now ........ im not worried
10:22 pm
GreyWoulf

MAMA -- If I were in trouble, I wouldn't have said anything
10:22 pm
torgone

I don't think it even goes that deep - some people take the chat log flirting, and themselves, a little too seriously ..
10:22 pm
mamabear

not to mention the fact that we are all a gazillion miles away from each other and only know our "screen names" ..... I agree with you, too granny. There is no reason why men and women cannot be friends... I told Mrs. Dog that our relationship was purely PLUTOnic!!!
10:23 pm
sophia

i'm enjoying reading all the stuff about great marriage relationships.. at least that's encouraging for single people! =)
10:23 pm
groovygranny

Exactly Tor !
10:23 pm
GreyWoulf

Congratulations on having such a strong relationship, groovy -- yours is one for the books, all the more precious for its rarity these days :)
10:23 pm
groovygranny

awwwww Sophia I always say that there is some for everyone and everyone deserves to be happy
10:24 pm
groovygranny

thanks Grey .. Steve always says that im his other half .. we balance each other out
10:25 pm
mamabear

groovy - good for you! You are right - everyone deserves to be happy.
10:25 pm
GreyWoulf

Torgone - you have hit the nail on the head
some people just can't separate the fantasy on the screen from the reality in their living room
10:25 pm
sophia

that's a good way to think about it! i'd like to think i, too, deserve to be happy! *hugs*

Sophia you do ! I think so !! when you met that person you will just know it ... I did and I was 13. I can remember being 15 and thinking , this is the one for me !
10:26 pm
GreyWoulf

sophia - the key is to truly accept and BELIEVE that you deserve to be happy -- merely thinking it allows doubt to creep in and ruin the moment
10:26 pm
artlady

Just got home from Italian class, made a Greek dip for tomorrow (no, Tor, don't go there), time for a quickie...puzzle, that is.
10:26 pm

he had told everyone his wife died in a car accident ......... well we came to find out she was alive and well living in the same house with him !!! I have been mad at Steve before hundredes of times but I have never told anyone he's dead !! I don't know how someone could do that to people
10:29 pm
GreyWoulf

sophia - just call me woulf or GW, all my friends do -- mister makes me feel older than I am :)

Ye gods! I have spent so much time chatting, I still have 27 words to go!!!
10:33 pm
torgone

Well, at least you're not discussing Middle age sex.
10:33 pm
sophia

groovy: i can't understand that either.
Woulf: i was just trying to be polite :)
Tor: so you agree that there are people who do take their lives online seriously and it's not really their fault if others make light of it?

ewwwwwww Artlady !!! I don't mind them from a distance !
10:36 pm
torgone

sophia - What I'm saying is that some people take things like chat log flirting too seriously, and imagine themselves more important to the other people online than they really are. There are valid things that people do online that are important and meaningful and real. pretending to give someone on the Babble chat log a back rub is not one of them.
10:36 pm
GreyWoulf

It's almost as if they know exactly how disconcerting it is
10:37 pm
groovygranny

JW are you all finished now?
10:37 pm

Oh dear it is he5 I am missing == have the pl of the one one might smoke, the one that breaks when saddened. Have monkeyed all I can. Clue if anyone's still out there?

I thought, Torgone, your massage vignette was great. I didn't give it a close reading, but it seemed like amusing role play to me. Did someone not like it?

11:00 pm
GreyWoulf

I'm actually still not finished, Griff :D
20 to go, and too busy chatting
11:00 pm
mab

Strictly for medical reason, of course, torgone. Since you've been unwell. Chicken soup can have the same effect when consumed in copious amounts. -- so they say.... I've never...
11:00 pm
Griffums

Oh! ;D
11:01 pm
torgone

Orchids say this: "Look at me. Enjoy. Appreciate my perfection. I'll be gone soon."
11:01 pm
GreyWoulf

help with the ra5/12 ?
11:02 pm
Charm

ra5/12 - "British writer whose romantic novels include Under Two Flags (1867)."
male sheep + 2 vowels.
11:02 pm
Griffums

GW - it's like the cheap noodle soup but change the last letter
11:03 pm
Griffums

(hmmm - how beautifully illustrated that she is Charm and I am a dog...) :D
11:04 pm
mab

Do hope that's not a hint. I love orchids for their utter otherworldliness. They are so blatantly sensuous. (and erotically suggestive)

PowerPlant please just come say hello, you needn't stay long.
11:05 pm
sophia

charm: another tip that worked for me! thanks!
Woulf: use charm's tip! :)
11:06 pm
GreyWoulf

Then what's the ra 6/21 ? It's obviously not the plural
11:07 pm
torgone

That's a much more eloquent expression along the lines of what I was trying to say, in my clumsy way, mab.
11:07 pm
Griffums

No, it's not a plural, it's another stupidhead word, so I will let SOMEONE ELSE give you a clue. :)
11:08 pm
GreyWoulf

LOL, Griff!
11:08 pm
torgone

ra6 = "Having many branches."
11:09 pm
mab

Your male sheep plus what small children call Cheerios. end with e.
11:09 pm
Tbug

ra 6 ra + bullwinkle minus a vowel
11:10 pm
Griffums

Tbug wins!
11:11 pm
GreyWoulf

I typed that twice earlier, I really did! -- and I got the big raspberry both times
11:11 pm
Tbug

woo hoo!!!
*wonders why she won???*
11:12 pm
mab

Yep. TBug, your's was the best clue.
11:12 pm
Griffums

(just because I've decided to be the bestower of prizes instead of the giver of clues - also because I live in Bullwinkle country)
11:13 pm
Tbug

ahhh, just came on for a few, i see... competition tonite eh? :) i actually finished this one, doesnt happen often, any other clues needed??
11:13 pm
mab

Be back at the witching hour.

Tbug

11:19 pm
GreyWoulf

11:19 pm
Griffums

GW - rearrange the letters of that one to get the first one
11:19 pm
Tbug

11:19 pm
Griffums

(it's a blood relative)
11:19 pm
torgone

Switch the last 2 letters
11:20 pm
GreyWoulf

another one that got bounced earlier
11:21 pm
Griffums

Your first 5/14 (there aren't any 5/16s) is a plural of that 4/6
11:21 pm
JBsAnno

Help, please! with the last qu 5/16 AND the squ 8/60?
Many thanks in advance!
11:21 pm
sophia

Griffums

JB your Q has a donkey attached
11:22 pm
Tbug

qu 5/16 sounds like something you mow
11:23 pm
Tbug

squ - starts with same four letters as other squ words, add bullwinkle minus a vowel
11:23 pm
JBsAnno

Getting a lot of mileage out of Rocky's pal, eh, Tbug?
It's a great clue!
11:24 pm
JBsAnno

11:26 pm
GreyWoulf

Alright - 9 M's to go!

Griffums

Mmmmmmmm!
11:26 pm
JBsAnno

11:29 pm

11:29 pm
Tbug

*watches torgone do funky chicken dance*
11:30 pm
JBsAnno

Well worth waiting for, Torgone!
*stifling laughter so as not to wake sensible husband already sleeping!*
11:30 pm
GreyWoulf

Griffums

All right, I'm out, back in 32.

torgone

I have not ever, nor shall I ever, do the "Funky Chicken Dance"
11:31 pm
GreyWoulf

Not bad, Dianne -- working on my last 3 right now - all m's
11:31 pm
JBsAnno

By the way, I saw that done on Halloween by a *very* happy cross-dresser in Philly at 12th and Locust. S/he almost got swiped by a taxi!
11:31 pm
sophia

i think the funky chicken dance looks cute! LOL
11:32 pm
Dianne

GW - what are you missing?
11:32 pm

11:34 pm
torgone

11:44 pm
JBsAnno

Shh, Tbug! We're going to celebrate this weekend (whee) and THAT will bring pleasant dreams!
Stay warm, GrWoulf, we're shivering in Philly tonight!
11:46 pm
Dianne

Hong Kong is a great place - just a bit crowded and a very expensive place to live. I love the people and the pace of life here.
11:46 pm
GreyWoulf

Congrats on the anniv, JB
