12:03 am
Jacula

Hello again! What I really didn't need right now is the track in my headphones! Just put freee CD from lat Sunday's paper into drive and have got Village People's YMCA playing. What the f*ck has that to do with Christmas??? And, yes, I censored my own word on here!
12:04 am
GreyWoulf

nava - ssshhh! don't tell anyone, but there is crack in electronic format being beamed directly into our eyes....;)
12:05 am
Schroeder

H 5/16 hee hee *giggles like a little girl*
12:05 am
Smeltzdog

12:05 am
renfield

jacula - we should make our own cd's
12:05 am
nava

i seriously wouldn't doubt it!
12:06 am
GreyWoulf

Schroeder - why wasn't it there on the naughty board from a few days ago? (*giggles*)
12:07 am
brandyjack

I remember seeing it? Maybe it was one of the ones you missed?
12:08 am
GreyWoulf

Or maybe I have spent way too much time playing this game and not enough time sleeping so my memory is faulty, brandyjack :D
12:08 am
Jacula

The Boxtops - Build Me Up Buttrcup is on now. Quite appropriate really, but nowt to do with Xmas, and neither is the track coming on now... When Will I see You Again? - 3 Degrees. I'll forgive 'em for that one though, brings back happy memories, believe it or not. LOL.
12:09 am
Jacula

BJ - Are you being cheeky again? LOL.
12:10 am

12:11 am
Jacula

'W Are Family' Sister Sledge. next track on that cd. Again, I must ask, what has that to do with Xmas??
12:11 am
brandyjack

That's ok, the q5/16 makes up for it
12:11 am
Schroeder

Hee Hee Hee, I tried that one also LeslieAnn
12:12 am
Jacula

Not even looked at grid yet! But that's just me, a rebel at heart. LOL.
12:12 am
renfield

looks like the qc dept failed on labeling
12:12 am
GreyWoulf

Jac - does it say it's a Xmas mix? If so, someone deserves to lose their job
12:13 am
Jacula

It's called 'The Mega Christmas Album'.
12:13 am
GreyWoulf

12:16 am
Schroeder

Hi Sprite!!!
12:16 am
Jacula

There is NOTHING Christmassey on 1st disc - even that bloody Gloria Gaynor track, the 'I will SURVIVE' on is on there. I can only think the first cd is meant to get drunken folk of all ages up on the dance floor? 2nd disc, which we get next Sunday, looks more promising...
12:16 am
GreyWoulf

oops - meant G'nite to Babbler -- your dogs are very similar to this sleep depped woulf!
12:17 am
renfield

wait gw - babbler's the little blonde - i'm the big blonde puppster
12:17 am
brandyjack

It was free. Got what you paid for I think. Personally, I consider it better than all those nauseating things we are hearing now. It wouldn't be so bad if the selection wasn't so dratted limited..........
12:17 am
GreyWoulf

q7/40
12:18 am
sprite

Sweet, manageble grid :)
12:18 am
GreyWoulf

sprite - how have you been? missed you the past couple :)
12:19 am
Schroeder

Do all blonds look alike to GW?
12:19 am
sprite

Lol Woulf, that's sweet of you. I have been working and had to postpone babble till after working hours. But that happens every week on my working days, so don't worry ;)
12:20 am
GreyWoulf

Only when I'm tired -- truth be told I prefer darker hair...
12:20 am
Jacula

I'm a brunette, so dunno! LOL.
12:21 am
sprite

Jacula, you look like a deep blackhaired lady to me ;)
12:21 am
Schroeder

Me too Jac....
12:21 am
renfield

reight now i'm blonde, red, and orange - i like diversity
12:21 am
Jacula

Got 'The Twist' on my CD now - Chubby Chekker version. C'mon you lot, DANCE! I was twisting champion of my school in the 1960s!
12:22 am
renfield

12:23 am
lottijw

Hi everyone :)
Jac did all the workmen get away safely yesterday or is ther one or two frozen over in the hole????? Lol
12:23 am
Jacula

just make sure when you twist right down, you can get back up again. LOL.

Dancing in the Street, Martha & The Vandellas is on now. Keep dancing!
12:24 am
Schroeder

*jumps in with Jac and renfield to twist*
12:24 am
sprite

Hi lotti!
12:25 am
lottijw

Hey Sprite....you lost the banana then!!!! No Torgone yesterday :(
12:25 am

But, when it comes right down to it, physical attributes any kind are only meaningful if you are only looking. :)

I have gotten in trouble in the past because I was so caught up in the personality of the person I was with, that I had no clue what colour her hair or eyes were! :D
12:25 am
Jacula

Hiya Lotti! Yes, I let him get away this time. Mind you, if he stasrts again in a couple of hours it may be a different story. 'Brothers Grimm' eat your hearts out! LOL.

Jac wonders if she's the only one who has not even glanced at the grid yet, even after committing it to paper?
12:33 am
GreyWoulf

Jac - it's tough to DJ and word hunt at the same time ;)
12:33 am
torgone

Slept in this morning, and had chef and her boyfriend over. Between them and my other two, I cannot get on the computer sometimes. Anyway, It was a lovely day..

12:39 am
brandyjack

But I might have been talking about the s8/45. She is also in the top right corner.......
12:39 am
Jacula

Schroeder - It's Deep Purple, Strange Kinda Woman, so you'll have to head-bang and hope it doesn't send you dizzy these days. Sorry! Was 1st cd I picked out. And thanks for the wine.
12:39 am
torgone

12:45 am
sprite

I must admit I didn't check the entire log, Woulf... too busy finding new ones ;)
This is a nice grid! I like the E6/18 (for no other reason than that it is such a nice word to look at, so round and vowely in contrast to its meaning)
12:45 am
Jacula

If you had long wild hair and wore leattherand studs in those days, people kinda stood back from you and watched in awe. ROFLOL.

Next track up - Hendrix - Voodoo Chile. I hope you all know that one well enough to do to cool head bang to!
12:46 am
renfield

12:47 am
lottijw

Jacula

By the way, folks. Don't think I've told you lot this, but I have told my family. My fave track of all time is Lynyrd Skynryd's 'Freebird', LIVE VERSION. So, should I die unexpectedly, I expect to be sent out to that song.

1:17 am
Schroeder

Jacula I'm sure he will...
1:18 am
GreyWoulf

Fanfare is a bit too long for right now, Jac tho I do love ELP -- Pirates is one of my favorite songs by them
1:19 am
Jacula

Have to say that last band's singer was bloody sexy when I saw him back in 70s. He was sweating so much he flicked it onto all of us girls in front row. I said 'PHWOAR' then. Would prob. say 'YUCK!' now, but never mind! LOL.
1:21 am
Jacula

(Was talking about Golden Earring there, btw. Ever so sorry for turning this into a music site. But it is my first love, then words...'

DJ plays a Rod song -

Secret heart, what are made of
What are you so afraid of
Could it be three simple words
Or the fear of being overheard
What's wrong

Let her in your secret heart

Secret Heart, why so mysterious
Why so sacred, why so serious
Maybe you're just acting tough
Maybe you're just not bad enough
What's wrong

(1) Let her in on your secret heart
This very secret
You're trying to conceal
is the very same one
You're dying to reveal...'
2:31 am

And as for Jacula? If she was the so-called 'Norm' she'd nevdr have been given her nickname, would she? She's fallen deep into a dark pit. Perhaps she should be left there. Life's chucked a lot at her, but the collapse (maybe) of her swan song at love... yea, well. It happens. Bye folks. Nice talking to all of you but I think I've made enough of a fool of myself now.
3:00 am
Jacula

Incidentally, if you want to know what's on the juke box now, it's Glenn Miller's 'In The Mood', soon to be followed by Moonlight Serenade and American Patrol. Don't ask 'why', just listen and DANCE. (Properly!)

helenary

Jac..i am a shrink..need to talk??
3:06 am
micamonkey

buenos dia :)
3:11 am
Jacula

Helenary - I don't know, Do I? Those songs have always got to m to make me talk, dance and cry since I was 3 or 4 year's-old. My parents just said I'd been 'born again too soon'. Maybe I am I nutter? H - mail me through the BabAnon ez-box if you want to talk to me privately. Wouldn't blame you if you didn't though! LOL.
3:12 am
helenary

how would I do that Jac?? i.e. email you..most happy to do so.
3:14 am
Jacula

Helenary - through Babblers Anonymous. If you join up there you can private message me through the ez-box. Not even I am mad enough to post my e-mail address on the net for all to see.
3:14 am
lottijw

I`m back Jac!!!
Hi Helenary, hi Mica :)
Jac`s been singing and dancing for hours !!!
3:16 am
Jacula

Hiya Lotti. Don't think I' quite totally mad yetm but ther againm in today's terms maybe I am?
3:16 am
helenary

I agree..no posting emails!
I will try and follow those instructions but not at all sure I will get there. I looked at BabAnon and got a bit stuck after that.
3:18 am
Jacula

Lotti - is it possible you're old enough to just prance about on the dance floor to Glenn Miller Band's American Patrol?
3:18 am
lottijw

Jac i don`t care how mad or not you are....you`re still a star to me and provide excellent entertainment!!!!!
Have the village idiots started digging again yet????
3:20 am
Jacula

Loti - Not as far as I know yet, love. But then I don't seem to know much, do I? And thanks for the stuff you said. That's the thing about humour, you see. The funniest humour is always the personal stuff.
3:21 am
lottijw

Macadam loves Glenn Miller so yes i can prance about with you, but my jiving was never up to much!!!!
3:21 am
helenary

please!! nobody has used the word mad..thats a crazy thing to say!!
3:22 am
helenary

sorry I will butt out. All is well.
3:24 am
Jacula

Lotti - my jiving in myhy head is absolutely brilliant. Unfortunately, it only sends its brilliance to my right side and not my left. So, not a great jiver either! Those I wish!
3:26 am
lottijw

I wish i was good at it too, Macadam is brilliant at jiving. She`s jazz and big band mad too!!! She`s also crazy about " ol blue eyes" :)
3:27 am
Jacula

Helenary - you don't need to do that. My 2 kids often tell me I need 'a shrink'. Bear in mind that my daughter (who spent over 2 years in a psychiatic ward, might know that) and who knows, after all that crap she may well be right, after all, the first thing they tell the kid to do is 'BLAME MOM!' Not meant nastily to you, but it is true, and I'm sure you know that.
3:33 am
helenary

don't be sour..mums have mums too and we all have shadows and stuff, and even shrinks have to deal with their stuff
3:34 am
Jacula

Lotti - if someone was right in front of me right now, and it was you, you'd get one of those big blue Batchelor's soup furry arms hugs, you know?
3:35 am
lottijw

Oh babe you`re wonderful (((((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))) ))
3:38 am
Jacula

Helenary - I'm sorry, Didn't mean to be sour but, hey,in one breath you're offering to maybe counsel me nd when talk about rhw'Mum' thing, you suddenly get all uppity? I DO understand, believe it or not. We saw enough shrinks who had had enough and needed a hug themselves in the years |(not jusdt those 2 I mentioned) to know psychiatrists etc., are only human! Blinking heck, girl! I'm not a moron! Neither are you!
3:41 am
Jacula

Can I text him now? Should I?
3:41 am
helenary

I feel a shit for sticking my neck out. Would love to talk to you but I have not joined BaAnon or whatever. I just come in and out of the game when i have a bit of time. I acutally enjoy all aspects of the game. I am not sure what to do to be more involved in the chat etc I will take any suggestions. You guys do have a lot of fun with it all and I enjoy the process.
3:42 am
lottijw

No Jac make him sweat....... 69 will crack before you do !!!! ;)
3:42 am
Jacula

Oh for F's sake! Can you lot all kepng a low profile please jsut get in here? It might make thing more normal!

In other words all the lurkers say hello!!!!

Okay, will do, for now, Lotti. How'sit going with you, btw?
3:44 am
lottijw

Morning Haz, hows the weather in wonderful Ireland????
3:45 am
lottijw

Jac i`d do better to find some words really!!!
Are you baking today????
3:45 am
Haz1558

It's cold! A little snow but hopefully not too much. My sister-in-law is flying over to Edinburgh this evening to visit my daughter so we're keeping our fingers crossed for the weather.
3:46 am
Jacula

Helenary - if you a a psychiatrist, you obviously have the intelligence needed to do the clicks to join BabAnon. Please join! You might find some fun there. Not everyone is nuts!
3:46 am
helenary

ce9/66 any clues please??
3:47 am
helenary

I will join..but I will do it but not tonight..its 8.45pm here and I am almost done for the night. I am an aussie.
3:47 am
lottijw

It hasn`t got to us in West Yorkshire yet Haz, but my kids are desperate for it to snow!! My brother is in Fort William....i don`t know if he`s got it yet but i would assume he has :)
3:48 am
helenary

p.s a psychologist not a psychiatrist.
3:48 am
lottijw

Helenary add an s to your ce8 :)
3:48 am
Jacula

Lotti - Yes, am baking today. Have 3 lots of cookie dough in the fridge. One is a well tried and tested chop chip cookie one. The other two I kind of invented as I went along, a chocolate version of the choc chip one and also a peanut and white choc and Bailey' Irish Cream version of that.
3:48 am
Haz1558

Snow is great to look at, but I hate the mess and inconvenience of it all. Children just see the good side of it - and why not?!
3:49 am
Haz1558

Jacula - have you ever come across the recipe for Ritznuttorte? It's basically a meringue with nuts and Ritz biscuits and is yummy!
3:50 am
helenary

lotti..need help with ce8 too!! Ta
3:50 am
lottijw

I know exactly what you mean! They`ve got their eye on the sledge tucked down the side of the garage :)
3:50 am
Jacula

Snow is just great so long as you don't have to be somewhere or do something.
3:52 am
Jacula

Haz - That does ring a bell. Would you care to put the recipe for it into BabAnon?
3:52 am
lottijw

ce8/50 is a girdle or belt chiefly used in English as a dressmaking term :)
3:53 am
Haz1558

If I can work out how to do it, I certainly will. It's one of those foolproof recipes that is easy to make, tastes wonderful, can be frozen etc.
3:53 am
helenary

beautiful Lotti, got it. Thanks
3:54 am
micamonkey

are we on a dog theme today? hehehe
3:55 am
Jacula

Helenary - may I ask what is the difference between the two?
3:56 am
lottijw

Helenary you`re welcome :) Where in Oz are you?? I have some friends who have just gone home to Oz for 4 weeks he`s a rugby(or footie as you call it) player called Brad Drew :)
3:57 am
lottijw

We are Mica...
Jac i don`t like white choc, but the rest sounds dreamy!!! Haz yours sounds fab too :)
3:59 am
helenary

of coars..psychiatrist is first a medical doctor and then may train in psychotherapy leter. A Psychologis is not a medico but comes from other disciplines like Social Work or the Arts etc etc. They say that one treats more everyday normal issues like relationships/depression etc etc, and the other more chronic problems that may require medication or more intense intervention. Not all psychiatrists do psychotherapy. Psychologists do not prescribe. Hope that helps a bit. Its a question always asked.

6:22 am
Sherry

Miya: too bad! sometimes it's the only way to get the pc back together.
Don't you have a second name that your folks and friends could use if you don't like your real name? That's sorta what I do coz I feel my name is to heavy for me.
6:23 am
tbear

Tryiong to work out which name means PURE....Sherry want totellus the heavy one?
6:23 am
Miyavi_fan

Wow! My initials are the rather unspectacular CAA...could have been worse though, I've got a friend who's initials are RC, which she hates :D I didn't get it until I sounded it out...R...C...
6:24 am

Miy...is it Chastity??

I hate to tell you this; but, Ive always liked my name. Sing along w/me..."for it was Mary, Mary long before the fashion changed....but in society, propriety they say Marie." It's just a good old name...nothing fancy..straight forward...actually, kinda like me.

Although, my family were talking about this the other day...if you had to choose a name for yourself, one to be called by for the rest of your life, what would it be?

in the US, the day after thanksgiving is called black friday -- all the stores open super-early and have insane sales for the holiday season...
its called black friday because retailers finally get out of the red + into the black (the margin of profit)

7:35 am

Not bad TSM! any good is hard to translate though, I'd say: je ne sais pas si je vaux grand-chose a ce jeu.
Tbear: French conjugation is HORRIBLE. I had to check the ending for 'vaux'.

I'm not that far north. For Canada, during the winter, that is warm. Southern Ontario is the most southerly point in Canada. Our capital, Ottawa is about 3 hours away (2 hours the way I drive) and they average 10 degrees colder than we do.

I use someone elses program that solves the puzzle and generates a list of words. Then I use my own program to analyze the list and produce the stat lists. And yes, I could use the word list to just type in the words. And yes I do see one or two words while I'm cutting and pasting. But I usually forget them in all the tom-foolery that follows. Until I find them in the puzzle that is.

It's a solver for square puzzles in general. But it doesn't work perfectly. It gets right upset when a QU and a U are side by side, it doesn't recognize the word STENT, and a few others. So I have to watch it carefully.

Two bone weary public servants were working their little hearts and souls out. Their department was just too busy for staff to be able take flex. But there had to be a way...

One of the two public servants suddenly lifted his head. "I know how to get some time off work" the man whispered.

"How?" asked the second worker......................

11:32 am
Babbler

Instead of answering, the man quickly looked around. No sign of his Director. He jumped up on his desk, kicked out a couple of ceiling tiles and hoisted himself up. "Look!" he hissed, then swinging his legs over a metal pipe, hung upside down.

Within seconds, the Director emerged from the Branch Head's office at the far end of the floor. He saw the worker hanging from the ceiling, and asked him what on earth he thought he was doing.

"I'm a light bulb" answered the public servant.

"I think you need some time off," barked the Director. "Get out of here - that's an order - and I don't want to see you back here for at least another two days! You understand me?"

"Yes sir", the public servant answered meekly, then jumped down, logged off his computer and left.

The second worker was hot on his heels.

"Where do you think you're going?" the boss asked.

"Home," he said lightly. "I can't work in the dark."

There once was a Red Indian whose given name was "Onestone". So named because he had only one testicle. He hated that name and asked everyone not to call him Onestone.

After years and years of torment, Onestone finally cracked and said, "If anyone calls me Onestone again I will kill them! " The word got around and nobody called him that any more.

Then one day a young woman named Blue Bird forgot and said, "Good morning, Onestone." He jumped up, grabbed her and took her deep into the forest where he made love to her all day and all night. He made love to her all the next day, until Blue Bird died from exhaustion.

The word got around that Onestone meant what he promised he would do. Years went by and no one dared call him by his given name until a woman named Yellow Bird returned to the village after being away for many years......................

12:03 pm
Babbler

......
Yellow Bird, who was Blue Bird's cousin, was overjoyed when she saw Onestone. She hugged him and said, "Good to see you, Onestone."

Onestone grabbed her, took her deep into the forest, then he made love to her all day, made love to her all night, made love to her all the next day, made love to her all the next night, but Yellow Bird wouldn't die!

12:53 pm

1:06 pm
Miyavi_fan

Hehehe...I'll forgive you...this time :D

How are you?
1:07 pm
mab

Hi Babbler. Do you know (your greeting reminds me) that I've met people with dogs, and fussed so much over the dog that I never learned the person's name. I've done that several times.

And people are so smitten with their pets that they don't mind at all taking a back seat to the creature, so it all works out.
1:08 pm
Ho Hum

Fine ta, thanks Miy - see you had a day away from school today - woohoo!!!
1:08 pm
Babbler

that's true mab : ) I've done it many a time too!
1:09 pm
Ho Hum

Wasn't that a great j-rock day yesterday - I really must see if I can go pro so I can have ics too.
1:09 pm
Miyavi_fan

Mab, I do that. There's a gorgeous golden retriever down my road, and when my family tried to write the owner a Christmas card, we realised none of us knew his name! The dog was called Bruno, and we ended up putting "Mr. Bruno" on the card!
1:10 pm
mab

I want a Cairn Terrier (or Terrorist, as a friend of mine refers to terriers) terribly.
1:10 pm
Miyavi_fan

It was a great j-rock day...only all the gorgey icons distracted me from the puzzle! *sighs*
1:12 pm
mab

And I'm sure Bruno's master was truly enchanted. People are just that way -- I like it.
1:13 pm
Miyavi_fan

He was, Mab :) He didn't stop laughing for about a million years
1:15 pm

Chris - if U really want to change your icon, you could do what I do...

Go into google images, type in whatever image U want to search for, then keep looking until U find a suitable one, then save the image to your PC's hard drive.
Then go back to Babble, click on "My Profile" in the top right hand corner, then click on "edit" underneath your icon, then click on "browse", then upload your icon and Bob should (hopefully) be your uncle...

3:00 pm

signed pieces from Ruth? You lucky lucky person!!!!
3:01 pm
Haz1558

It took me quite a few weeks to actually complete a grid. You build up experience and begin to remember words - it is never easy but it does get better. Just enjoy!
3:02 pm
Haz1558

It's also a big help to have Brandyjack's stats from Babblers Anonymous, because you then have a better idea of what you are looking for.

3:17 pm
Haz1558

Forbes, I wasn't being mean - quite the opposite. If you have played before you will know the basics. If you haven't then it is helpful to read the rules at the top of the page. Use the clues that people give, and if you need help with a specific word we will help. We will not just give words away as that takes the enjoyment out of the game.
3:18 pm

Thanx Babbler - just found it as U were posting...lol

lots of hints in the chat log, just scroll down.
Stats are in Babblers Anonymous, which is at the bottom of the list in Friends of Babble panel on the right of your screen. Go to General, then stats and you'll see them. Anything in particular you're stuck on, we're all happy to help!!! (except me right now cos I have to watch my John Cusack movie!! ) :D

Trotters, unfortunately it is true! My dad was cooking one, since we had lots of family coming around, and he was so proud of the eel he'd bought that he came right up into the study, where I was, and put it on my shoulder...I wasn't really expecting it, turned my face sharply around and had a fish slap :D

Thats why I'm so grateful to have them Trotters. I always think they must hate us! Having said that they are fantastic with the children when they see them and I stay away as much as I can so they get concentrated child time. The children talk about them all the time so don't fell forgotten. Tehy regard them as special because they see them less often.

Babbler

scatty, think oneies, twoies, threeies, all the way up to te***** (double consonant)
8:19 pm
harpjane

Actually, it's bad manners to have a bird feeder if you live in bear country. Not to mention a good way to lose your bird feeder. We're always getting public service announcements, don't feed your pets outdoors, pick the apples off your trees, etc. This minimizes the chance that a bear trying to "bulk up" will ge used to human-offered food.

Am I right, Mama?
8:19 pm
mamabear

te 7/28 - oneies, twoies, threeies, fouries, fiveies, sixies, sevenies, eighties, nineies, te*****

By the way, I worked the the mental health field for the past several years, and the lu6 is the technical term.
9:19 pm
GreyWoulf

Temple - I will be bored until the day after Xmas -- the last week of the year is called Insurance Week bec everyone will suddenly realise that their medical flex benefits are about to expire and they have to use the money ore lose it -- glasses are the easiest high medical expense item out there to buy so they come running to us
9:20 pm
GreyWoulf

What kind of bifocal, Temple -- lined or no line?
9:20 pm

9:25 pm

GW - that's EXACTLY what I would be doing this time of year, except I had to use up all my medical flex dollars this year on other medical expenses. So no new glasses for me!!!
9:26 pm
mab

Thank you.
9:26 pm
mamabear

welcome!!!
9:27 pm
GreyWoulf

Temple Owl - not necessarily -- not trying to advertise here - but if you come into any Lenscrafter's (mine is in Plymouth Meeting) and talk to an optician - they can double check your measurements and make sure everything lines up properly :)
9:28 pm
mamabear

GW - how you doing with the word count tonite?
9:29 pm
GreyWoulf

MAMA - if it helps you, I have certificates that I am supposed to share with friends and/or family that give you 50% off a pair of glasses -- you definitely qualify as the former, so I can always mail one to you ;)
9:30 pm
GreyWoulf

I have 61 left to find -- the last couple of clues since I logged on have helped me find some that I missed theis AM :)
9:30 pm

That's very sweet of you GW!!!! I got new glasses last year in December, and my insurance allows for every other year, so I'll probably wait until 2006.. mine seem to be ok for now.
9:31 pm
72 Temple Owl

last se5/10 please? or if clue given anyone know when?
9:31 pm
GreyWoulf
