bex777

2:23 am

sprite

Good day at school, Bex :)

2:24 am

mrpresident

I had a really interesting day today!
My neighbour in our business district did the "pull business out from under my feet" today! I am ropeable!! (and that is a word in my dictionary!!)

2:26 am

sprite

Err.... now I am suffering from dutchness, I fear. Not a clue to what you mean. Did something bad happen to you?

2:27 am

mrpresident

oh yeah sprite... rope-able! need to be roped and dragged back in!!

2:27 am

mrpresident

like a bull in a china shop!

2:28 am

sprite

That much I figured out, but what about the business that was pulled from under you? Some nasty trick of a collegue?

2:28 am

mrpresident

I have a baby goods business, new and used... I depend on clients bringing me their pre-loved items and I on-sell them.
My 'neighbour' has a secondhand CD music store... his girlfriend is pregnant and came in a few days ago looking for a pre-loved cot. We didn't have one as they are hard to come by

2:29 am

mab

You are being somewhat oblique, mrpres. What in the world happened?

2:30 am

mrpresident

well, a client arranged to bring a cot today. She came in with her other bits and pieces too. He saw her bringing the cot in, approached her on the sidewalk and offered to buy it from her there and then!! He knew she was bringing it to me and he jumped her for the cot!!

2:31 am

sandyloo

press i just tried onsell but it didnt work

2:31 am

sandyloo

what a rat!!!

2:31 am

sprite

That's incredibly rude. He should be kicked in the... where it hurts. And she did sell it on the spot? That's rather daft of her too.

2:32 am

mab

So he was trying to undercut you, get the cot cheaper. And right in front of you!

2:32 am

mrpresident

oh, she did more than that!! She had it in my shop, insisting I make a decision in .05 of a second cause she had 'someone else lined up to buy it'...

2:32 am

72 Temple Owl

mr. p: was this a regular client?

2:33 am

sprite

You must have been steaming mad, mrP. What a b!tch!

2:34 am

mrpresident

She then told me who it was... and I was so upset!!
I told her that it was plain rude and she blew it off as "oh well, I just want shod of it...?" I was so pissed off at her and my neighbour!

2:34 am

mab

That is ratty behavior!

2:36 am

mrpresident

She is not a regular client, and she is now a 'black listed' client! She treated me like my business meant nothing, my service was nothing!!! And my neighbour... how would he like it if I took the clients that were coming to him to sell their CD's and railroaded them to sell to me instead... RIGHT INFRONT OF HIS SHOP!
What a PRICK!

2:36 am

mab

What ever happened to professional courtesy? If everyone plays fairly, everyone profits!

2:37 am

sprite

With a pardon to the rats. Very rude and opportunistic, both of them. Want me to kick them for you?

2:37 am

mrpresident

Kick them high, kick them hard!!

2:37 am

sprite

Hears to that, mab! So very true!

2:38 am

sprite

*aims carefully, after putting on the steeltipped winterboots from hubby... YIHAAAAAA! And again.... AYEEEEE!*

2:39 am

72 Temple Owl

lol sprite!

2:39 am

weslie

2:39 am

mab

Well done Sprite! Wow, just like a ninja!

Some sympathy and support never hurts when you are treated rattily :)

2:42 am

72 Temple Owl

2:42 am

2:45 am

sprite

Now I feel dumb, lol.

2:45 am

2:46 am

72 Temple Owl

2:47 am

2:47 am

mab

Sprite, did anyone tell you about the stats list brandyjack did with one of the grids last week in Dutch?

2:48 am

sprite

No? Sounds like fun!

2:49 am

72 Temple Owl

well i must go - see you all later - just have to put in 9 houurs at work and i am free until monday! happy babbling! hang in mr p! bye all!

2:50 am

g'nite owl

2:50 am

mrpresident

bye owl! Thanks!!

2:50 am

sprite

Good luck at work then, nice thing to look out to, so much free time :)

2:50 am

72 Temple Owl

*waves to all* see you!

2:52 am

mab

It is posted somewhere in Babblers Anon. Interesting. He can apparently produce word lists in virtually any language without much trouble.

We had a discussion here about multi-lingual approachs to the grid. Could broaden the appeal of the game immensely, new markets for Dr G-d, etc.

I think that brandyjack is a fluent Dutch-speaker.

2:54 am

sprite

I often am distracted by dutch words that are so very obviously there in the grid, but not valid.
Just start thinking... if Dr_God would make that option available, I could play each grid twice! Once for each language :)

2:54 am

mab

oops, bye Temple!

2:56 am

mab

Dachef did the grid with his Spanish girlfriend one day, finding (on that particuar day) many more Spanish words than English.

2:58 am

sprite

mab, it sounds like a plan! I hope Dr_God likes the challenge. It would require a lot of dictionaries to be implemented in the site, but technically I think it could be done. We would have to select the language we would like to use, and then the stats panel should adjust to that. Great, great idea!

3:00 am

mab

Will have to suggest it to Jamie. I think he's been preoccupied with that (shudder) number game.

3:01 am

FMitch

Morning all
Just popped in to see how the grid is today.
Sprite if you go to babanon, general and then foreign babble there is a thread there and an example of a Dutch grid (you could play it on paper).

3:01 am

sprite

That's fun too, but much more straightforward. I love both. Hope Jamie will catch on on this suggestion, it is really great!

3:02 am

sprite

Thanks FMitch, and hi :)
Think I will do that Dutch one, just for fun.

3:02 am

weslie

thank you for the welcome mr. p

3:02 am

FMitch

LOL Sprilte thought you might!

3:03 am

mab

I'm so stunted when it comes to numbers that when Ithink of them I see them in my mind's eye spelled out!

3:04 am

mrpresident

that's cool wes

3:05 am

mab

There you are with icon and all! Welcome indeed Weslie.

Fox socks, how adorable FMitch.

3:07 am

Haz1558

Good morning all. I'm just about to start but this grid looks quite nice.

3:07 am

FMitch

Thanks mab, it was one of my most fav childhood books.

Hi to welie and welcome.

3:08 am

weslie

3:08 am

FMitch

Morning Haz,

Rats must go as have a lot on this morning, catch up with everyone later.

3:08 am

mab

I'm Seuss-deprived; my mother, for reasons unknown, disapproved of him.

3:09 am

weslie

hi FMitch...and thanks for the welcome

3:09 am

mab

Later, FMitch. Hi Haz.

3:10 am

mrpresident

3:10 am

Haz1558

Good morning, Mab. Should I be changing my icon to favourite children's book?

3:11 am

mab

Was yesterday's theme. Not sure of today.

3:11 am

FMitch

Haz it's Dr Seusse day!!!! waves byeeee

3:12 am

Haz1558

3:12 am

sprite

3:13 am

rivets

3:21 am

mrpresident

I am FNISHIDE!!

3:22 am

sprite

Did anyone see the movie The Cat in the Hat? Brilliant, how they preserved the atmosphere of the book. Like the books, it's meant for kids, but it made me laugh.

3:22 am

Haz1558

Congratulations MrP!

3:22 am

Lbeelar

Hi trish :)

3:24 am

Hi trish.

3:25 am

trishtrash

hi back at you, Sprite & Mab & MrP :)
MrP, your checklist does allow for hyper-efficient babbling ;)

3:26 am

chrisrbailey

Bummer, it says anglian isn't a word (but it is).

3:27 am

sprite

Tried that too. Twice.

3:28 am

trishtrash

Was just reading the log, MrP, sorry about your business woes... the pair of them are ignorant jerks, IMO.

3:29 am

weslie

finishde fireworks for mrp;

3:30 am

mrpresident

Thanks Trish! May as well set up a car boot sale outside my shop and charge them to sell their crap in my space!!

3:30 am

mrpresident

Thank you weslie, love fireworks!

3:31 am

sprite

I believe it's even mrP that introduced the fireworks here! :)
%%%%***%%%*** FIREWORKS ***%%%%***%%%% for mrP then!

3:32 am

trishtrash

lmao, you're a true entrepreneur, MrP.
You also coulda charged them a middle-man/finders fee.

3:33 am

weslie

thank you who chatted with me for first time...off to the sleeps ....happy hunting to you all and hope to chat again soon

3:33 am

sprite

Sleep well, weslie!

3:33 am

Haz1558

Weslie - hello - how long have you been doing babble in the background?

3:34 am

trishtrash

bye weslie, sorry I didn't get to 'greet' you with the others, see you around the grid :)

3:36 am

sprite

That's me done for today. MrP, I suggest you contact that man and thank him for the wonderful idea of selling HIS wares to your clients... that you set up a surprisingly successful CD-sideshop. ;)

3:36 am

weslie

months ....just afraid to insert into the witty conversations....you all seem like you have known each other for so long....but i grow braver....you have all been so nice...thank you for the clues and i hope we will chat again soon...g'nite

3:36 am

movieman

Hi, everyone!!!!!

Anyone for some green eggs and ham????

3:36 am

mrpresident

nite weslie

3:37 am

Haz1558

Well, I'm glad that you've emerged from the shadows! Hope to chat again, sleep well.

3:37 am

sprite

How many more times, movieman...
I JUST DO NOT LIKE GREEN EGGS AND HAM!

3:37 am

mab

Greetings Movieman.

3:37 am

mab

'Night Weslie.

3:38 am

mrpresident

I believe what goes around comes around...
Karma, Mojo, whatever you call it, it bites the butt at some time...
Then again, maybe they just don't care! That is usually the answer to why people do the things they do!

3:38 am

trishtrash

Hiya Movieman

3:39 am

sprite

I do believe that what you send out into the world, comes back to you. Cheaters become cheated, people who try and be loving and honest will attract people who are of the same mind. Just not all the time, alas ;)

3:42 am

mrpresident

Sprite, so true! He deserves her cot and she deserves whatever she got for it!

3:50 am

sprite

I agree. Have to go, have fun hunting and hinting all of you :)

3:51 am

Haz1558

Bye Sprite.

3:51 am

trishtrash

Bye Sprite!

3:58 am

Haz1558

I have to go as well. This is my morning for helping with Riding for the Disabled but I'll be back later.

3:59 am

trishtrash

That sounds like a rewarding way to spend your time! Bye Haz!

4:13 am

4:18 am

sandyloo

ooh no stats yet on the babblers anon page

4:18 am

trishtrash

I'm a comparitive newbie myself, Sandy, only been babbling a couple of months... I have to say I've not seen many online forums that are so easy going, friendly & welcoming!

You must be proud of your daughter :) Architecture fascinates me, but I don't have the math ability to even comtemplate it. lol@trashbagging... should I run?

4:24 am

sandyloo

i am proud of her she is working on the grand hall of a huge university in dubai at the moment - i wonder how she does it - she has worked on some fantastic projects with the firm she works for she worked in sydney for ages but is now back in perth for a little while

4:27 am

trishtrash

wow, sounds like quite a project!
Taking a break for a while (is it me or is this grid more full of nasty little words than usual?) see you around, Sandy & everyone .... bye MrP, if you're still around!

4:41 am

Dianne

Sandy - what storm damage - I must have missed that part of the chat log. I've ben play for a few months.

5:02 am

lola100

sandy, I saw the url for babble in the sunday paper. I hadn't played many word games on line and had never been in a chat room before. The chat log plays a big part in why I come back (nearly) every day. I've made some wonderful friends here and have even met a couple of them! : )

5:03 am

Dianne

Hi Lola - long time since we've been on together.

5:03 am

6:06 am

lola100

faerie, I'm using MrP's tick box one on angelsongs's page : )

6:06 am

Eva

Just looked this up to make sure my memory wasn't playing tricks on me: How many books did he write?

Between 1937 and 1991, when he died aged 87, he published more than 40 books, which have sold half a billion copies between them - more even than J K Rowling's Harry Potter books. He nearly burned his first book, And to think that I saw it on Mulberry Street, after it was turned down by 27 publishers.

3. Did he have children himself?

No. He was not particularly fond of spending time with them either. His widow, Audrey, said in a recent interview that he was slightly afraid of them. She said he was always thinking: "What might they do next? What might they ask next?" She added: "He couldn't just sit down on the floor and play with them."

6:07 am

faeriekae

Hi Sandyloo - I almost took green egg and ham as my icon.LOL

6:08 am

faeriekae

Ok - I'll use the grid as long as I can then - I'll just come and look over your shoulder. *grin*

6:09 am

lola100

faerie, can't you get on to angel's page?

6:10 am

amandacath

Scrolling back through the log looking for clues, I came upon the discussion of Babble in other languages - I had to laugh, since I was just thinking yesterday that I'd like to be able to do the grid in German! I vote YEA for foreign Babble!

6:12 am

faeriekae

Yes Lola - I'm tap, tap, tap, away///wrong theme

6:12 am

lola100

amanda, but this IS foreign babble, isn't it? You mean these are ENGLISH words??!! : D

I thought babble was a completely invented language!

6:13 am

faeriekae

need coffee. brb

6:14 am

amandacath

Know what you mean, lola - but that's the fun thing about English. It's one big foreign language, even if you're a native speaker!

6:14 am

sandyloo

very interesting eva thanks for that

6:14 am

faeriekae

I'm back. Lol Cheesy - it is

6:38 am

Haz1558

Sandr - if you go onto Angelsong's resource page and find 'Mr P's stats list' you'll get the stats and the chance to use a clever tick box system.

6:39 am

sandr

thanks haz - have seen MrP's systemm before. Prefer to struggle on for the mo!

6:40 am

Haz1558

That's fine, I just wasn't sure if you knew about it. I'm using it for the first time myself today.

6:41 am

sandr

6:41 am

sandyloo

haz how did u get into riding for the disabled - a friend of mine runs one not far from me

6:42 am

Chessy

true sandr - and lots of female names :)

6:43 am

Haz1558

Sandy - it all started quite a few years ago! Some of the other vets' wives were involved and asked me to come along. I did sidewalking for quite a number of years but when the lady who did the tea retired, I stepped into her shoes and now do that role.

6:44 am

faeriekae

((((Haz)))) come here girl I want to give you a great big ole kiss (smooooch) thank you, thank you, thank you, just found MrP tick box - You are wonderful and so is Mr P.....

6:45 am

Haz1558

Put me down, faeriekae - you don't know where I've been! Seriously, glad you found it!

6:46 am

faeriekae

*puts Haz back in her chair* sorry, I got a bit carried away. *heehee*

6:47 am

Haz1558

My philosophy in this game is to give and get as much help as you can!

6:47 am

capone

morning all, whats today avatar theme?

6:47 am

sandyloo

fairie i found the tick box but every time i leave it to look at the grid all the ticks disappear its my fabullous computor skills no doubt!!!

6:48 am

Haz1558

Never mind that - what happened last night? Speculation was rife on the chat log.

6:48 am

sandyloo

Dr seuss

6:48 am

faeriekae

Amen Haz - It takes a Village to complete some of these grids..

6:48 am

sandyloo

6:49 am

faeriekae

Avatar - correct Capone..

6:49 am

faeriekae

6:50 am

Haz1558

Could you print out the tick boxes and fill them out as you go?

6:50 am

sandyloo

i could try

6:51 am

faeriekae

Yes Haz - It's working wonderfully for me...this is fantastic....Angel deserves a huge reward for all her time and effort ya know.

6:52 am

sandyloo

we could all put in and buy her a fancy new car

6:52 am

faeriekae

Capone - whats a SBB ?

6:52 am

Haz1558

She has put a huge amount of work in, that's for sure. I'm kicking myself now that I haven't used the tick boxes before now.

6:52 am

sandr

well 108 - and thats me well and trully struggling. Gonna cave and get the stats - see you all later this evening

6:52 am

Haz1558

Bye sandr - see you later.

6:53 am

faeriekae

Good idea Sandylloolooo - Think I'll just send her a little donation...she really does deserve it.

6:53 am

faeriekae

Sandr Bye :)

6:53 am

sandyloo

lol another option is ecards

6:54 am

sandyloo

of course you would have to know how to send an ecard

6:55 am

Haz1558

sandy- do I recall you having problems with your husband and bank statements? He would be interested in you funding a new car for someone!

6:58 am

sandyloo

LOL of course he would but i would have to hide the statements very well.

7:02 am

capone

7:02 am

faeriekae

Capone is a SBB

7:24 am

musicmom

Good morning everyone. Can someone send me MrP's tick list link? I had to restart and I didn't bookmark it.

7:30 am

capone

tick list?

still a noob here

7:31 am

musicmom

MrP has a list that has little check boxes beside it. You can tick them off as you find the words to keep track of what you have.

7:32 am

faeriekae

(((MusicMom))) - can you access it from Angels page. That is where I got it from.

7:32 am

musicmom

oohh I didn't realize she had it. I will try there. Thanks!

7:33 am

faeriekae

brb

7:33 am

musicmom

Found it - thanks!

7:36 am

Angelsong

hellooooooooo!

7:36 am

musicmom

I need to go run a few errands. Be back in a couple of hours. This one doesn't look too nasty today.

7:37 am

Angelsong

most everything Babble is on my resource page. I freely admit I'm a packrat....

7:38 am

musicmom

And thank God for that Angelsong. I'm completely dependent on the list:-))

7:38 am

Onpaki

paki

7:40 am

Atalante

7:41 am

EvaNadine

heh, i just started it, but im already stuck...heh

7:42 am

FMitch

Atalante congrats, how did you do it .. and .. more importantly how come no 7 and only 1x8 and they call it medium!!!!
oh sorry afternoon everyone :)

7:43 am

Angelsong

hey, I'm sort of in the grid today.

7:44 am

capone

i am in the puzzle today

7:44 am

FMitch

LOL we will have to call you a5/14 for the rest of the grid.

7:44 am

faeriekae

Hi everyone - I'm back...

7:45 am

faeriekae

Capone - where in the puzzle?

7:45 am

sandyloo

how do you know the sudoku is medium and do we have a choice of doing a more difficult one

7:46 am

faeriekae

(((Angel))) goodmorning...yes you are in the puzzle..lol

7:46 am

Atalante

I have no idea ... I don't have a clue what I'm doing with sodoku, I just click things kinda randomly! Apparently there are strategies and things with weird names like x-wings but I have no ieda what they are!

7:46 am

FMitch

Hi Sandy,
Each day is adifferent level (we can't choose) it says the level on the top r/h corner of the grid

7:46 am

sandyloo

me neither i saw that today xwings!!!!! lol

7:47 am

faeriekae

Angel - your page has been a life saver today...without BJ's list I thought I was doomed until Lola pointed me in your direction.

7:47 am

sandyloo

hi mitch the first day i got 10 points but have only got 2 the last two days

7:48 am

Angelsong

I wish I knew how to make one of those lists, myself.

7:48 am

sandyloo

capone where in the puzzle are u ?

7:49 am

faeriekae

me too!

7:49 am

Atalante

can anyone recommend a good page about suduko with these xwings etc in that's written in language understandable by totally illogical people?

7:49 am

sandyloo

those lists are great angel mr p is very smart

7:50 am

sandyloo

they were talking about a "quick sudoku site" today did you see that......

7:50 am

capone

i am the place where it gets very hot

7:51 am

faeriekae

lol Capone..

7:51 am

Angelsong

I'm going to have a chat with mrp. Because if I can figure out how to do such a list myself, it will be a good back up in case hers or BJ's isn't posted for some reason.

7:51 am

sandyloo

lol are you in there or causing it
i had some other ideas of which words mite apply

7:51 am

capone

both

7:52 am

Uneaixoise

angel has list like BJ's?

7:52 am

faeriekae

Excellent idea Angel - that would be grand if you could add that to your resource page...

7:53 am

Atalante

what's mrp's site url?

7:53 am

faeriekae

Hi Une :)

7:53 am

Angelsong

there is a link to MrP's list on the resource page, Une

7:53 am

sandyloo

soon it will be st pats day and time for me to change my icon(which has become the highlight of my day) only 2 hours to go

7:54 am

Uneaixoise

hey, faerie :)

7:54 am

Angelsong

atalante, the link to MrP's list is on the resource page.

7:55 am

Atalante

angelsong, that's really easy to do. You make a new column for the tickboxes and fill them with <input type="checkbox"> - that should give you tickboxes if you're just using html

7:56 am

Angelsong

I need to learn to genrate the list, though.

7:58 am

Angelsong

faerie, I'm going to try to figure it out. that way, we always have a back up plan.

7:58 am

Atalante

have you got a programme that generates them yet?

7:59 am

Angelsong

no, Atlante, I don't have one yet.

8:00 am

amandacath

Ok, only 4 left, they're probably staring me right in the face:
an 6 24
ga 5 18
na 5 12
sl 5 14

8:01 am

Uneaixoise

ta6/24

8:01 am

Atalante

ah. I see the problem! I wonder if mine and mrp's are written in the same language ... it looks like she has to input the list manually into her html - though maybe I'm missing something from a quickie look at the code - but mine can populate a table automatically though it's not 100% tuned to enable (about 99.9% though LOL, working on fixing a few bits). But combining the two could be beneficial for all

8:02 am

capone

an 6/24 plural of the an/5 14

8:02 am

Uneaixoise

an6/24 plural of an5

8:03 am

amandacath

oops - the other an 6 24 (the last one) - or am I just not seeing how to make that plural?

8:04 am

Uneaixoise

ga5/18 happily

8:05 am

amandacath

thanks for the ga Une - do you need the ta 6/24 or are you just telling us there is one?

8:06 am

Uneaixoise

i've got it--thanks--got confused about what someone was asking for

8:06 am

sandyloo

its that other an 6/24 that i need also

8:07 am

amandacath

understand - that's easy to do

8:08 am

sandyloo

that ta 6/24 is what ive been abandoning to play this

8:08 am

Uneaixoise

just found it--an6--starts with the a in the fourth row down

8:09 am

Uneaixoise

sandyloo :)

8:09 am

I had four younger brothers; one died as an infant. Since I never had biological sisters, I have "chosen" sisters instead.

8:53 am

faeriekae

Thats fantastic. It is sometimes harder to get along with small famlies than large ones.

8:53 am

8:55 am

Une - I'm from the South also Hon, what can I say. My oldest sister is 72 and I am the youngest at 46/47. My Mom is 88 yrs young.

8:55 am

Atalante

*grins* I learnt a long time ago to make my own family, rather than rely on my "official" family"

8:56 am

My Dad passed away at the age of 65 or he would be 99 yrs old.

8:56 am

8:58 am

Atalante

I have my unofficial twin sister, who I've known since we were about 10. We look the same, think the same, like the same things etc and people truly believe that we're twins! Just twins in soul rather than body, I say :)

8:58 am

faeriekae

Temple - sorry about your prayers...lol

8:58 am

faeriekae

Ata - thats so cool.

TSM - The good news is, the due date is never more than approximate, so you know the general ballpark, and that's fine. The bad news is, pregnancy is one long series of getting freaked out, calming down, getting freaked out about something else... So relax and go with the roller coaster!

9:57 am

ToeSockMonkey

What is your favorite fast food?

10:41 am

musicmom

UGH - I don't really like any of it, but if I have to pick I would say Subway or Arby's. Tonight's choices will be McDonald's, Wendy's or Taco John --- they are on the same strip as my studio.

10:42 am

musicmom

Last week I didn't like any of those choices so I ended up eating really late and having leftovers when I got home. The kids eat Wendy's almost every Thursday.

10:42 am

Aaah ok... Well at least it is only one night a week. Could be much worse!

yep. I try to limit it to once a week. The rest of the week I cook - either in the crockpot or something quick.

Ooo I like Jimmy John's. There is one on campus here. Greg and I go there for lunch sometimes.

ToeSockMonkey

10:55 am

hurshy

10:55 am

capone

i wasn't talking about your feet Toes

10:55 am

FMitch

TSM, she wont come back on, it all got a bit out of hand.

11:00 am

FMitch

11:01 am

musicmom

Me too F Mitch. Fun to see some old friends.

11:02 am

hurshy

11:05 am

musicmom

We were just talking the other night that we need to dig these out for Hannah. She had them in her room in the other house but they are still packed up here. I love Mulberry Street and Wacky Wednesday and of course, Sneetches.

11:05 am

hurshy

nvm, got it - is it the plural of the instrument or something?

11:05 am

musicmom

hurshy - do you have the one that is the double consonant - one + s?

11:06 am

musicmom

Yes it is the plural of the momma of the string family.

11:06 am

hurshy

why isn't tanglies a word - anyone who's ever had long hair knows about tanglies :)

11:07 am

musicmom

We battled some of those this morning hurshy.

11:07 am

Anj

11:07 am

capone

11:09 am

musicmom

Oops Babble Rules - not about Babble.

11:09 am

hurshy

i also on4 have one of the o's :) anyone know the other?

11:09 am

FMitch

bzi - I see we have lured you from sudoku LOL, have a read of the how to play babble rules up the top Yes the letters need to be adjacent to eachother.

11:09 am

bzikofski

but they don't have to be in order of a line ? for example tangle blocks touch eachother but it's not like you could draw a line along..

11:10 am

musicmom

I don't have any o's yet.

11:10 am

hurshy

bzi - rule #1 - don't post words in the chat :)

11:10 am

musicmom

Atalante

hurshy - clue for the as5? please???!

12:15 pm

cybernan

Ihave ta 4 x4, ta5 x 2, ta 6 x 1 ----
What am I missing?

12:15 pm

hurshy

atalante - plural of mental institution

12:16 pm

Dachef

as5 - as + the "nearly" vowel plus the sixth note on the doh ray me scale.

12:16 pm

Atalante

wow - weird word!

12:16 pm

Vicuna

The as5 is SO not English!

12:16 pm

hurshy

cnan - you have more t's than there are?

12:17 pm

hurshy

sure it is, vi - plural of mental institution - it's the proper latin plural

12:17 pm

Dachef

erm - there are only 5 t's???

12:17 pm

Vicuna

Exactly, Hurshy, proper LATIN plural. Not English.

12:18 pm

hurshy

but we have lots of latin plurals in english...
antennae, for instance

12:18 pm

hurshy

if we're going to steal words from other languages, we might as well steal them right! :)

12:18 pm

Vicuna

Honestly, can you imagine anyone ever using that -a plural instead of the -s when discussing mental institutions?

12:19 pm

cybernan

Hurshy -- the stats board says I'm missing one!

12:19 pm

hurshy

hmmm... now it seems so right to me that i'm not sure if i can imagine people saying it or not

12:19 pm

Dachef

yeah sure - I have been in many as5. But I dont have to anymore as long as I keep on taking the little blue pills.

12:20 pm

hurshy

cnan - you can't have 4 ta 4's, though, there are only 3

12:20 pm

cybernan

Sorry: ta 4 x2, ta 5x2, ta 6x1

12:20 pm

Dachef

cybernan - there are only 3 x ta4's.

12:20 pm

caitlyn

LOL Dachef

12:21 pm

hurshy

ta4: spaceman's drink, buddist thing, pl, and what you get in the sun, pl

12:26 pm

capone

sorry, i had to ditch the grinch, too depressing.

12:26 pm

Vicuna

(oops, didn't mean to fall ominously silent. Children and technology giving me trouble.)
It isn't stealing, Hurshy! It's lovingly adopting!

12:27 pm

hurshy

well then, we show our love by taking the plurals along with the singulars - it would be cruel to separate siblings :)

12:27 pm

ToeSockMonkey

No Ciss icon Capone? lol ;)

12:27 pm

bzikofski

so far i have 20 words here.. how many there are ?

12:28 pm

hurshy

my 7 and 8? are you kidding me? no, don't give me a clue yet though.

12:28 pm

capone

no what?

12:28 pm

Vicuna

But adopted children have to be given their new family's last name, to show they're part of the family! Otherwise they might feel unloved.

capone

12:30 pm

Vicuna

Someone once said, English doesn't borrow from other languages; it follows them down dark alleys and goes through their pockets for loose vocabulary.

12:30 pm

bzikofski

hurshy, poland. i think i'm gonna get the pro account to see how many are there still

12:30 pm

ToeSockMonkey

What you mean?

12:31 pm

hurshy

hurshy

poland! of course, "-ski", i should have guessed

12:32 pm

hurshy

Cyber,
Hope this helps.....
What I've been doing is to: 1) bring up the list then minimize. 2) sign onto babble again. 3) restore up your list and you'll have them both on screen side by side. I use the list with the checkboxes. My biggest problem with this is: The list cannont be saved with check marks. If you close it, then reopen, boxes will be blank. But I really love using this list.....no more cutting, copying or pasting.

2:28 pm

cybernan

silly word, Lola, thanks.

2:29 pm

Hi boreetos :)

4:37 pm

boreetos

I'd have to agree, today's theme is pretty awesome. I realize its not as visual, per se, but I'd like to see a Shel Silverstein icon theme. He's one of my all time favorite poets.

4:38 pm

snowyowl

Hi ellocin -there is also a themes topic in Babanon. I think Babbler has asked if anyone has any requests.

4:39 pm

gramma

Hey macuser...how did you fare w/the tornado siren?

4:39 pm

EvaNadine

boreetos -- i agree!
i almost posted a silverstein drawing just for my own personal enjoyment.

out of curiosity, have you read any of the more adult themed work of Shel's?

4:41 pm

Gramma - I got lucky - there were several people killed but there were only funnel clouds over me. Thanks for asking :)

4:41 pm

EvaNadine

seen a few of his playboy cartoons, but by the time i found out he did those too, it was too heartbreaking to wanna see that side of him...heh
i actually wote my college entrance essay on him

4:43 pm

gramma

I used to live in the midwest. When you said that the siren was going I immediately started praying for you. Right after we moved out, our whole town was desroyed by a tornado. Gone..nothing but the school and the water tower.

4:45 pm

gramma

As yogi bearra would say "it's de ja vu all over again" what's w/the double speak?

4:46 pm

boreetos

That's an awesome subject for an essay. yeah he did a lot of stuff for playboy. But one in particular was awesome. He wrote a version of Hamlet, as told on the street. It's still in iambic pentameter if I remember right but it tells the story much more honestly. I liked it a lot.

4:47 pm

ch1212

Jen, please explain -- I thought that any points counted in the rankings, so even if I don't finish I'm still okay... and I figured the worst thing I could do is not even start a grid. From your comment, I guess I'm mistaken? Please 'clue' me in - thanks.

8:23 pm

hurshy

ch1212 - your rank is your average % of words for only the puzzles you do, times 1000, plus one point for each puzzle you've done. therefore if you only get 50% of the words, it knocks your avg down a lot, if you don't play, you just lose one point.

8:23 pm

Jen

ch-- on one of the rankings, it takes the total number of available points for puzzles you have worked on, then takes your total points earned for those puzzles and comes up with an average... I don't understand all of Dr_G's math, but all I know is that when I start a puzzle and don't finish it, I fall in the rankings. :/
