10:29 am

Judi

What flavor jello?

10:29 am

kje

lime!

10:30 am

doseffing

... eventually "red" ... because it absorbed too much blod

10:30 am

kje

cuz the blob sounds green to me

10:30 am

doseffing

blood

10:30 am

kje

oh gross, dosef - lol

10:30 am

kje

so cherry or strawberry?

10:31 am

rururocks

so if it was jello was Bill Cosby in the film?

10:31 am

doseffing

... or raspberry? ... but that might be too much of a comment on the movie

10:31 am

Judi

Raspberry Jello. Not sure why they used raspberry. The file was in black & white.

10:31 am

Tharn, crossy, I'd say you are right

1:26 pm

ch1212

1:26 pm

MLFAN17

ch I totally agree

1:27 pm

sprite

1:27 pm

robbie williams

1:27 pm

sprite

oh I love that song, crossy. The whole movie, tbh.

1:29 pm

ch1212

I have that Garfunkel album, and that song is a favorite. Also his "Second Avenue" about a couple who broke up, and she had a bird. I lived on a Second Avenue once, with a guy who had a parrot. We broke up. So Art's song always makes me think of that time.

MRSWHISKI2

can someone please tell me how to move words I found on licketysplit to this page

2:51 pm

TraderKate

Link to Babble Expert in my profile... puts Lickety side by side with the grid
I'd post it, but sometimes posting links here adds extra characters if not a tiny url...

2:59 pm

MLFAN17

Hi kate

3:03 pm

MRSWHISKI2

I've done that TraderKate. Now how do I move the words . Do I need to log back in?

3:10 pm

TraderKate

do you see the VERY TOP row of small boxes (first one is "refresh clues"?.....

3:10 pm

TraderKate

next two yellow boxes are "send words to Babble" and "send words to clues"....

3:13 pm

TraderKate

so if you entered words in Lickety click send words to babble :)

refresh might help and if all else fails, go out of Babble Expert then back in.

Hi MLF... sorry just a quick hit and run, gotta fly now.

3:14 pm
