1:01 am
SamanthaJoy
Sure. You want religion, politics, or sex?
1:01 am
Baafour
i think we even may have more wind here; i heard that chicago was named the windy city not for the weather but for the gasbag politicians (really) true?
1:01 am
ls1
true - but with the buildings downtown there are wind tunnels everywhere - so we developed into the name!
1:02 am
SamanthaJoy
That's true, Baa--because the winds of change can be blowing one way one day, and the next day, another.
1:02 am
Lolly
haha hmmm, well religions kinda been covered 2 :p
1:02 am
SamanthaJoy
I take it it's politics, then!
1:02 am
Lolly

1:02 am
ls1
yeah, we have sex here in chicago too
1:02 am
SamanthaJoy
Given that this is the first day in three that "slut: hasn't been in the grid, I don't think we're meant to discuss sex.
1:02 am
Lolly

Have the player rankings been updated recently? I've completed the puzzle every day this week so far but have stayed in exactly the same position.
2:14 am

Morning dear gang :)
2:14 am
mrpresident
Hello Sprite!!
2:14 am
amandacath
Morning Sprite - how'd the day go yesterday?
2:15 am
9tanks
how are things spreite
2:15 am
Svet
hash is so a word, not that i would know what to do with it.
2:15 am
9tanks
oops again a typo
2:16 am
Svet
do'h i can't type
2:16 am
amandacath
hash is a word, Svet, but it's not in the grid - you can only use letters once
2:16 am
Svet
yeah imy bad.
2:16 am
sprite
Could have been worse. No rows or dramas, thank god, all went rather quietly. Thanks for asking :)
2:19 am
sprite
No 'tanga'???????
2:19 am
ESB
and no "tengu"...
2:19 am
corpsvalue
5 six-letter words down ... 11 to go. sheesh!
2:20 am
amandacath
I'm glad for you - such things are stressful enough without having to deal with ... well, anything else
2:21 am
sprite
So true, amanda, and the risk was there. My sister-in-law suffers from DIS, which makes her totally unpredictable, especially in stressful occasions. She was rather calm though, I am so grateful for that. Made it a little easier on my husband too.
2:21 am
sprite
ESB: I often meet Tengu in guildwars... they do exist ;)
2:23 am
ESB
lol! yeah, too bad babble doesn't recognise it, great monsters ^^
2:24 am
sprite
:) Babble is very partial when it comes to creatures. It also will not recognize ents, though orcs are valid. Or the other way around, not completely sure.
2:25 am
amandacath
that's the right way 'round - it also doesn't like elfs, if I remember correctly
2:25 am
sprite
Aaaaarghhhh! Am sooooo sorry!
2:26 am
amandacath
thanks, Sprite!
2:26 am

Grrr - why can't we have ruth - there's ruthless, after all!
2:28 am
corpsvalue
oh great! of the five 6-letter words i already have, i already have that one sprite!! : )
2:29 am
amandacath
babble does take ruth, matty, it just doesn't fit in the grid today
2:30 am
sprite
Too bad the site still claims words are not in the dictionary, while they only just don't exist in this grid.
2:30 am
Aussieme
Morning Babblers, I'm just popping in before I go to the hospital. Just being hooked up to monitors today, check baby moving well and heaartbeat strong.... Nothing to worry about
2:31 am

2:34 am
amandacath
pardon the ignorance, but what's your flag, 9tanks?
2:34 am
Ray100
"GURN" not allowed?
2:35 am
sprite
Should it be?
2:35 am
sprite
Now now, that is not nice, calling me names! ;)
2:37 am
Ray100
gurning is a traditional English activity which involves pulling funny faces...
2:37 am
9tanks
thats UAE - United Arab Emirates
2:38 am
sprite
A friend of mine used to fly for Emirates. She lived in Dubai.
Ray: thanks, I did not know that :)
2:38 am
9tanks
I am in Dubai
2:39 am
amandacath
Ahhh - see, we learn even more than what gurning is while babbling!
2:40 am
sprite
That's part of the fun of this game, to me anyway :D
2:40 am

why don't daughters daught?

2:42 am
sprite
Not at the moment, Ray, no.
2:43 am
mattygroves
Can anyone clue me the ag?
2:43 am
amandacath
Well, I think they should - if only to give us a big-point word!
2:45 am
mrpresident
ag6 is... related to the fathers side of the family
en5 is related to the mothers side
2:46 am
sprite
Yeah for oggy!
2:47 am
amandacath
Yay oggy! Thx, MrP - that stirred up some dust in my brain. I think I remember knowing that once...
2:47 am
sprite
Never looked up the defs, nice to know, mrP :)
2:48 am
oggy
ray100 if you switch sites the tiles dont update unless you come out of it and log in again.
2:48 am
mattygroves
Well well - here's to the reverse dictionary - thanks for that!
2:48 am
mrpresident
YW :)
2:49 am
sprite
Is it supposed to work like that, oggy, or is it a bug?
2:49 am
Preethi

mattygroves
What with?
2:50 am
Preethi

But I wish this stupid habit would go away.
2:54 am
scatty

2:55 am
Preethi
this game is crazy.. i cant find any words!
2:55 am
scatty

2:55 am
sprite
Today there are 114 words to be found in the grid, Preethi. Some are uncommon, but most are common words. Good luck hunting :)
2:56 am
Svet
not a word, duhh.
2:56 am
ESB

2:58 am
amandacath

2:58 am

2:58 am
ESB

3:00 am
scatty
pree have you found the s4 = long pile carpet of a sex thing
3:01 am
mrpresident

3:02 am
sprite
That clue is so obscure I don't even know if I have the word, LOL.
3:03 am
mrpresident
oh... adult film carpet!
3:03 am
scatty
mrpresident, a crude way to make love , you have a s4, (middle s on he bottom row
3:03 am
sprite
Or my mind is so pure, perhaps. (Sure!)
3:03 am
amandacath
Sure you do, guys - s4ing on the s4 carpet sounds ok to me!
3:04 am
sprite
Ah, got it. :)
Let's not forget the vulcano today.
3:05 am
scatty
sprite, vulcano?
3:05 am
mrpresident
LOL amanda!
3:05 am
amandacath
I missed that volcano so often for so long, I got paranoid about it and look for it immediately in every grid!
3:05 am
sprite
Yups, one of the babblets. E4. Italian vulcano.
3:05 am
mattygroves
I hate it when this happens. I'm looking for the an 4,6, and there are a limited number of options. I feel like I've tried every possible combination, but of course, I haven't. What's the volcano?
3:05 am
mattygroves
got the volcano
3:05 am
scatty
skiving school
3:06 am
ilandrah
an 4/6 sounds cranky
3:06 am
scatty
excue the spelling mistakes, i have only had a cople of hours sleep
3:07 am
sprite
An4 is anagram of over and over and over minus the i.
3:08 am
sprite
If you can be indignant, why not dignant?
3:09 am
amandacath
Sounds good to me, Sprite - I'll take it!
3:10 am
mrpresident
scatty, what you been doing having so little sleep??
3:11 am
scatty
n 6/30 = zero
3:11 am
sprite
S4ing maybe ;) Or... babbling.
3:11 am
mrpresident
LOL sprite!!
3:11 am
scatty
i went to bed at 6 and my friend has just text me, i thought it was the alarm , so i got up and came in here, i have just looked at the computer clock

Is there any word in the grid that uses the J?
3:18 am
Haz1558
Good morning all.
3:18 am
amandacath
Morning Haz!
3:18 am
sprite
Kitty: I do not think so. None that start with it, and I can't think of any using it.
Hi Haz! *hug*
3:18 am
Haz1558
The sun is shining here - what about you? And is the grid civilised?
3:19 am
amandacath
It would be a bizarre word, indeed, that used the j!
3:19 am
KittyVane
Okies, thank you Sprite :)
3:19 am
sprite
Well, to be precise, our Anj is in the grid. But that doesn't count.
3:21 am
amandacath
so-so, haz. I think about half of the 80 I have were desperate attempts that worked. Well, maybe not half...
3:21 am
sprite
Haz, the grid is civilized enough, it's us that are misbehaving :)
3:21 am
Haz1558
I see - I'll keep my hand ready to put over my eyes in case you get too out of control!
3:22 am
ESB
could someone please give me clues for the second word begining with the "g" at the bottom left? got the 5/16 but can't seem to see any other...
3:22 am
sprite
G5/18 starts the same, it is a plural.
3:23 am
CJ25
What do the grey bits mean?
3:23 am
ESB
thank you sprite! got it! :)
3:23 am
sprite
That you are getting older?
3:24 am

Got it I think it means nothing behins with H?

Excellent - still unsure about the grey tiles
3:28 am
amandacath
Sprite, I can't see the g5/18 from the corner - help?
3:28 am
sprite
You are pro babbler? The grey tiles in the stats panel mean no words start from that tile.
3:29 am
Lamancha
Good morning crew
3:29 am
amandacath
CJ - the gray tiles mean you've finished all the words that start with that letter, or if it 0/0, there aren't any.
3:29 am
Preethi
Sprite, cant see teh 5/18.. help
3:29 am
amandacath
Morning Lamancha
3:30 am

Thursda..... damnit.
3:30 am
sprite
Okay, let's try this.
Someone standing to watch over a gate is a G5. Leave out the 4th letter. Switch vowels. Then pluralise.
3:32 am
amandacath
Ok, thx, got that one, but it goes from the other g - still one left for the corner
3:32 am
Preethi
thanks sprite
3:33 am
sprite
Looks like a lot of G-words can be made two ways. Now to find the one you mean...
3:34 am
sprite
Think I got them. Gh5/18 ends with the start of car.
3:37 am
amandacath
Great! Thx, Sprite - one more gray box for me
3:38 am
Dahlenburg
pip yea
3:40 am
amandacath
I'm afraid I'm going to have to go to the list - gotta pick my Mom up from the airport today, and I can't be late.
3:41 am
sprite
In that case it is good there is a list, right ;)
3:41 am
Jera
I'm halfway... back to bed for me!
3:42 am
Haz1558
I'm interested that the meaning for st6/21 is given as 'spiritous liquor'. We use the word in Northern Ireland to mean a sulky tantrum (perhaps the result of too much liquor?)
3:42 am
amandacath
Sure is! I'd like to introduce her to Babble while she's visting, but she's sometimes funny about things that I think are fun....
3:43 am
sprite
I want to finish before shopping...
Haz, I go for the liquor one. Spiritous is too close to my nick to want to have it associated with sulky tantrums :)
3:43 am
amandacath
So that's what that means Haz! I monkeyed it a while ago, but was too lazy to look it up - funny little word
3:43 am
sprite
amanda: perhaps it will help if you start telling her: "But I don't think you wil like it, it's nothing for you" ;)
3:44 am
Haz1558
You would say to a child 'Don't be going into your st****s!'
3:45 am
amandacath
oh, bother - anyone have the dh before I go to a2z?
3:45 am
Dahlenburg
Interesting
3:45 am
Haz1558
Sorry - the only dh word I know isn't there.
3:46 am
sprite
I have it, but it is not easy to clue. Give me a sec.
3:47 am
sprite
Not sure if the def will help you: A fast conducted at the door of an offender, especially a debtor, in India as a means of obtaining compliance with a demand for justice, such as payment of a debt
3:48 am
amandacath
Sorry, but my Indian-English isn't up to snuff
3:49 am
sprite
Another try:
D + first 3 letters of "to give pain" + first 2 letters of what you are called by.
3:50 am
Atalante
how on earth did you know that, sprite!!
3:50 am
Haz1558
That did it!
3:51 am
amandacath
Yay - got it! Thx!
3:51 am
sprite
I once started with karma. After that, more words followed ;)
3:58 am
mattygroves
Ha - nice clue for the dh! I got it from that.

4:12 am
amandacath
Fireworks for me! So, I'm off to the airport - don't know how often I'll be on for the next two weeks. If I can't get my Mom interested in this, I may have to skip my daily dose (a g5/16ly thought!). Have fun all!
4:13 am
Haz1558
Well, with an expression of disgust (fa5/24) I must go and get some other things done. Have a good day, everyone - and amandacath, have a good time with your mum.
4:13 am
sprite
Bye amanda, have a good time with your mom.
4:13 am
Atalante
have fun amanda!
4:15 am
amandacath
We'll see, we'll see. When she told me she wanted to come visit, she said "you won't have to entertain me" - right. She doesn't speak German, so what's she going to do without me enteraining her. Luckily she's not terribly high-maintenance
4:16 am
sprite
Sounds like she doesn't want to be a burden on you. Hope you find things that will work for both of you :)
4:18 am
sprite
Done, I am off to do the shopping. Have fun hunting all :)
4:19 am
amandacath
You're right Sprite, she doesn't. And I've got a couple of activities alrady planned out, and enough ex-pat friends who know what it's like having parents from the US visit, so they'll help ... it'll be ok
4:19 am

Everyone is leaving just as I arrived, was it something I was about to say?"

Angela

9:49 am
mattygroves
Hey aussie - I'd ask for clues for the ga's I'm working on - but I have a bunch, and am only missing a few (ga4/7 the second, ga4/7 after ga5/18, and the ga5,16 after that one)
9:49 am
stidmama
{{{smithchick}}}
9:49 am
kkiln
jbp---now I am even more confused!
9:49 am
Jera
I say hi when I'm paying attention...
9:49 am
movieman
Angela - well, it's marvellous to know there's someone out there with equally good taste in movies....
9:49 am
Jera
Hi to everyone who came in since me!! *waves madly*
9:49 am
jbp
think of flora and fa&&&. then start it with s
9:50 am
smithchick
I wasn't whining at you, stid...You always say hi. LOL, Jera... I'm in "a MOOD" today. Hubby is a fathead...
9:50 am
mattygroves
Gawd - I know the fathead hubby syndrome - I'm barely talking to mine!
9:50 am
kkiln
jbp -- that is 5,12...I need 5,18
9:50 am
Jera
They can be like that can't they? Sometimes I feel like I have 3 kids...
9:50 am
jbp

9:51 am
Angela
MM - It's one of my all time faves for sure. Just an amazing flick all around. I have to say Shaun of the Dead is my #1 lately
9:51 am
mattygroves
Ummm...it's a word I never heard of...take the word for a modem's speed, change the first letter, and pluralise it.
9:51 am
Vicuna
st6/27 - what was done to the guitar before it was tu4-ed
9:51 am
jbp
jera, is the st6 like when you're all st_ _ _ _ out with no sleep
9:51 am
Jera
Ooops, there are 2 st6's, sorry... I need the st6/21, please
9:52 am
smithchick
Thanks for the hug, by the way stid...I needed it.
He is gone on his all expense paid two week stint at work and had the audacity to call and ask what I ate yesterday...(in other words, how much money did you spend going to lunch with your mother).RAWR!
9:52 am
CJ25
kkin Sa5 is what foreign females blonde) like to get hot in
9:52 am
Jera
I have the st6/27...
9:52 am
smithchick
Hallelujah to that, tndaisy!
9:52 am
movieman
Jera - the st6's - 1) past tense of string.....
2) an archaic term for spiritous liquor
9:52 am
Jera
Never mind, the monkeys found it...
9:52 am
jbp
thanks matty!
9:52 am
stidmama
oooh -- someone's in the dawghouse when he gets home... (((smithchick))) there, there...
9:53 am
jbp
Jera, care to hint at what the monkeys found?
9:53 am
mattygroves
ga5/16 anyone?
9:53 am
Jera
rhymes with ru4/5...
9:53 am
Charm
What's the 2nd ne4/4? I have the one which means everything in its place.
9:53 am
bookgrrl
jbp--it's like the st 6/27, except change the last letter.
9:53 am
smithchick
He has nothing better to do with his time (Babble for instance) than get online and check the bank account.
9:53 am
Jera
ga5/16 = very thin
9:53 am
movieman
matty - g+a female relative...
9:53 am
jbp
you mean thin or scary, matty?
9:53 am
stidmama
whee! I got those st's --thanks all.
9:54 am
kkiln
CJ25 --- that is SA5,12 and not SA5,18
9:54 am
smithchick
Okay, I'm done ranting.
9:54 am
mattygroves
Never mind! Got it, thanks. Now just the (probably) second ga 4/7, then I can move on to another section. I doubt I'll finish today - work intrudes!
9:54 am
kkiln
So....stidmama....help me with ST 5, 18 please...
9:54 am
jbp

Jera
sh6/33, please (the 6's just aren't coming to me today!)...?
9:55 am

That would probably not be best, Angela (mine name, too by the way). It could get ugly and there may be children present:)
9:55 am

stidmama

Never mind, the monkeys are finding the 6's for me! *feeds monkeys some chocolate*
9:57 am

Bye, cj!
Well Ang, if you want to vent, feel free. Believe it or not, I can be a good listener.:)
9:58 am
Jera
Only if you find 6-letter words for me... ;P
9:58 am
smithchick
Hey, whoa...Did I miss chocolate somewhere? I was going to get on the treadmill, but I'm rebelling.That'll show the fathead...I'll just get fatter!
9:58 am

Angela, do we need to put a hex on your sister's ex? Stidmama does voodoo!
10:04 am
stidmama
but Woulf reminded me to do positive voodoo -- it's bad karma to do mean things to people! :-)
10:04 am
Aussieme
Hey, i'll bop him with my strapped wrist Angela..... I might be short, but i'm mighty quick with a right hook !!

10:05 am
Aussieme
no cherries for me abe, i hate them !!
10:05 am
smithchick
Well, this is true, but if your good karma reserves are full, it's okay. Isn't it?
10:05 am
lenalu01
I dont know whats revolting...for the ta clue...
10:05 am
smithchick
Hey, Aussie...Short is nothing but a good thing!

10:06 am
Aussieme
hey chick, share them raspberries !!
10:06 am
stidmama

10:06 am
abe79

10:06 am
stidmama
I am down to 41...
10:07 am
Angela
Thanks Stid, Smith & Aussie. It has been yucky. Unfortunately, he's not her ex yet...there is a line forming for beating him up though believe me! Not sure of her prognosis yet. She has surgery next week to see how far it's gone.
10:07 am
Aussieme
yeah there is, but every kind I tried, it wasnt very nice, so if its not nice, I dont want it.....
10:07 am
smithchick
I had a wonderful uncle who used to make me wheat toast and raspberries and cream. He was a sweetie.
10:07 am
smithchick
Well, I hope all goes well, Angela. My thoughts and prayers are with you on both.
10:07 am
stidmama
okay, Aussieme.
10:08 am
Aussieme
Ooooh, there was just an item on the news, saying that a jogger has had her arm ripped off by an gator while out jogging in Florida...... Goodness, they coming outta the water for the food now ??
10:08 am
mattygroves
Can anyone help with the gu words - I already have the gu 4...
10:09 am
stidmama
Angela, will send positive energy to your sister and her children, and positive energy that good will prevail and help him expunge his bad karma in this life...
10:09 am
Angela
Smith - Yeah, me too and thanks for the good vibes. I don't mean to be a downer...just don't feel like taking off the saggies yet I guess.
10:09 am
clairemcg
ahhh none ov ma words exist i nd clues
10:09 am
movieman
Aussie - I heard that the gator actually killed her....
10:09 am
inge
Hi Stidmama, Angela, Smith , Aussie, Faeriekae, and all the rest. I am back to find my last 18. Dont need clues yet. I am still concentrating.
10:09 am
smithchick
Sheesh! I read yesterday that a gator bit an older lady and she whacked him on the snout with the nozzle of her water house, and he took off. Don't mess with that lady!
10:09 am
Beckzilla
gu 5/18= gu+when you're in a hurry,minus the vowel
10:09 am
Angela
(((((((INGE))))))) Welcome!! :)
10:09 am
stidmama
Hi inge!
10:09 am
Aussieme
I'm not sure if I heard she died or not, its awful though
10:10 am

Hey, Inge!

Bye, everyone. Off to visit the parents. See y'all Sunday (maybe). Happy babbling.
10:10 am

that is one weird word, Beckzilla! thanks...
10:10 am
stidmama
later, Charm!
10:10 am
smithchick
Bye, Charm...Have a good visit!
10:10 am
movieman
Apparently the jogger was dangling her feet in the water, and the gator just snatched her.....
10:10 am
mattygroves
Yes, she died - they want to find the croc to kill it and examine stomach contents.
10:10 am
Beckzilla
haha no worries. I got it by monkeytyping
10:10 am
clairemcg
erm...
10:10 am
stidmama
I am so glad we don't have gators here... just bears and cougars. LOL
10:11 am
mattygroves
Thanks for the gu 5/18 clue. wonder what it means.
10:11 am
smithchick
That's terrible.
10:11 am
Beckzilla
crap, sorry! luckily, that wasnt a word
10:11 am
Angela
Stid - I am a firm believer in karma. He will suffer in spades for what he did to my neice.
10:11 am
movieman
The fa5/24 plz.....
10:12 am
smithchick
I don't understand the mind set that allows people to hurt anyone else, but especially children.
10:12 am
Angela
Stid - not the threat it sounded like :) I just know what goes around comes around.
10:12 am
stidmama
yes, Angela, I believe that also. good attracts good...
10:13 am
movieman
Angela - want me to get medieval on his ass?
10:13 am
smithchick
You're right though, Angela. There will be a time when he will have to pay the piper.
10:13 am
Angela
Smith - he was her step father for 10 years then decided to do what he did. I cannot wrap my mind around it.
10:13 am
stidmama
the fa 5 you want movieman ends like "teached" without he last letter
10:13 am
smithchick
Go movieman!
10:13 am
Angela
Thanks MM :)
10:14 am
movieman
Thanx for that f, stid....
10:14 am
tndaisy1960
cool clue stid:)
10:14 am
Angela
Don't mean to dish out the drama...we all have our stuff to deal with right??
10:15 am
stidmama
Angela, we all have our stuff, which means we know how important it is to listen and support each other.
10:15 am
Angela
Well, I appreciate you all just letting me go on for a minute. I feel better
10:16 am
stidmama
*idea* we can hold a Babble convention where you live, Angela, and we'll just sit on the lawn wherever that man is and stare at him in silence. Wherever he goes, his "collective conscience" will go too...
10:16 am
smithchick
We do, but it definitely helps to share it. When the absolute things have happened in my life, I've talked to trusted soundingboards and was really helped through them.
10:16 am
smithchick
Absolute worst things, that was supposed to say.
10:16 am
Sam
Curiously, that gu 5/18 isn't found at dictionary.com
10:17 am
smithchick
There are a lot of obscure words on here that aren't, Sam. Strange, that Enable dictionary.
10:17 am
stidmama
down to 38... need another g off the bottom left corner, have the "poltergeist" one...
10:17 am
Angela
Thanks again. I don't even know what I would do if I saw him again Stid...honestly. Not a clue.
10:18 am
tndaisy1960
stid....it's what you do at the fuel pump, but spelled funny
10:18 am
Sam
Makes me wonder what dictionary is actually being used. What up, Dr. God?
10:19 am
smithchick
I'm down to 22, but I am missing three g's. One is from the bottom.
10:19 am
smithchick
Oops, sorry. bad monkeytyping in public of all things!
10:19 am
stidmama
daisy, that didn't make sense to me. how many letters?
10:20 am
Angela
so...why is nauga not a word? Ever hear of naugahide??
10:20 am
smithchick
Obviously, I'm missing one of the first d's!
10:20 am
Angela
forshame Smith! :)
10:20 am

It's a good babble day for me if I only do that 20 times!

10:21 am
mattygroves
Why do so many people have drink icons today?
10:21 am
smithchick
The theme is beverages.
10:21 am
movieman
Matty - 'cos that's the theme today.....
10:21 am
Jera
Because it's beverage day, matty!
10:21 am
jfarber
And that explains movieman's icon because...?
10:22 am
Jera
Movie man doesn't run with the crowd... he's an original!
10:22 am
stidmama
well, I am just not seeing it, or the grid isn't accepting it at the moment... will go figure out a new icon and be back in a while...
10:22 am
smithchick
Wow, just monkey-typed that last g at the bottom, stid...Do you still need it?
10:22 am
movieman
Because I have my own personal "celeb's birthdays2 theme.....
10:22 am
stidmama
movieman's theme is birthdays of people in movies...
10:22 am
Jera
What g is needed?
10:22 am
stidmama
yes smithchick, still...
10:23 am
stidmama
I have the g 5 from the bottom, need the g4
10:23 am
smithchick
Well, why didn't you have a picture of me on my b-day then?
10:23 am
Jera
If you have the g5/18 just lost the plural for the 4
10:24 am
Jera
You were in the movies, smithchick?
10:24 am
smithchick
It is a gh... gh + vowel, vowel, + consonant (the cross one).
10:24 am
movieman
Stid - not just people in movies, but celebs in general....
10:24 am
clairemcg
wot dus dt mean agen?
10:24 am
jfarber
(nice to c it's not just me!)
10:24 am
smithchick
Sure Jera, in my mind lots of times. I've been the love interest of many a fine-looking man!
10:25 am
stidmama
that was it smithchick. thanks.
10:25 am
Jera
*is glad she's not a celebrity... it would sooo embarrasing to be movieman's icon*
10:25 am
movieman
In fact, I have chosen a VERY famous singer for tomorrow's icon....
10:25 am
stidmama
Off to change icon now...
10:25 am
smithchick
YW, stid:)
10:25 am
Jera
I'm actually in a movie, you knwo... I was an extra for Bull Durham...
10:26 am
tndaisy1960
wow Jera!
10:26 am
smithchick
Cool, Jera! Now you know that my fathead hubby supposedly looks like Kevin Costner (before he got jowly and thinned out on top).
10:26 am
mattygroves
Who decides what the theme is, and how do you find out?
10:26 am
movieman
So, Jera, whereabouts in the movie are you?
10:26 am
Jera
I went to NC State & they had a casting call out on all the campuses
10:26 am
Angela
very cool Jera...the closest I came to fame was Jumanji was filmed in my town and I met James Garner once
10:26 am
smithchick
What part were you in? I'll have to rent it and look for you!
10:27 am
Jera
One of the crowd scenes, fans in the stands
10:27 am
smithchick
I've met some people, but that's about it. I met Robert Redford, Edward James Olmos, and Didi Cohn.
10:27 am
movieman
The ga4/8 & 5/18 plz.....
10:28 am
Angela
Cool Smith!
10:28 am
smithchick
My hubby sat next to Catherine Zeta Jones at an airport FBO on time.
10:28 am
Jera
ga4/8 = something showy... usually ends with a y. 5/18 is plural
10:28 am
tndaisy1960
one of my Mikie's friends was an extra in Sudden Impact (Clint Eastwood move)
10:28 am
Jera
Ah, our brushes with fame!
10:28 am
smithchick
I love James Garner!
10:28 am
Angela
I ate dinner next to Robin Williams...nice guy.
10:29 am

Vicuna
I had a bunch of my artwork purchased by abc family channel to be in the set of a made-for-tv movie. But when the movie showed all my stuff had ended up on the cutting room floor.

mattygroves
So who DOES decide the theme, and how DO you find out?
10:37 am
LeslieAnn
babbler does, matty. if you go into ranking and click on her profile, you'll find a list
10:37 am
LeslieAnn
hello folks, btw
10:37 am
Vicuna
People just throw out theme ideas they'd like to see, and Babbler collects them on her profile. You can get there from a link on Angelsong's resource page, and the upcoming themes are listed there.
10:38 am
mattygroves
Let's have dragons!
10:39 am
Vicuna
I like it matty. But you have to let Babbler know.
10:39 am
mattygroves

10:40 am
Angela
Hello Leslie

LeslieAnn

smithchick
That's cool, godt!
10:44 am
hetty
mikedog, for a6 you need to pop a hump between your first two (give) letters and the past tense of "eat"
10:44 am
smithchick
Those are my favorite works of art on Vicuna's web site.
10:44 am
smithchick
Hi, hetty...

hetty

10:46 am
Vicuna
Hey, stid, I like your beverage choice. Especially as it's cool and drizzly here today.
10:46 am
LeslieAnn
or your orangutan, apparently
10:47 am
stidmama
I usually start my day with it, Vicuna! it's not drizzly or cool here, though it was supposed to be...
10:47 am
smithchick
Is any one else having trouble with that pesky bottom h? I've only got two of them.

10:49 am
smithchick
No, I didn't, thanks, Leslie. I've got ha4/5 and ha4/6. And now, ha5/14.
10:49 am
Vicuna
ha5/14 - Mr Shakespeare, ha5/14 thou any success with that last play?
10:49 am
mattygroves
I have what a ghost does - I'm missing the other ha5/14. There are, apparently two
10:49 am
smithchick
Good clue, Vicuna! TY!
10:49 am
mattygroves
Hurrah - got it - great clue!
10:51 am
stidmama
matty I found an ha 5/20 before what the ghost does...
10:51 am
LeslieAnn
haha! got the other h. it is ha + an expression of disgust
10:51 am
stidmama
:-) that's the one I found, LeslieAnn! Once again, we share brain waves!
10:51 am
smithchick
TY, all...h's finished!
10:52 am
inge
You guys made me refresh to see stids drink, yes I do like that pot. Real colorful.

Good morning, everyone --- should be washing floors, but here I am!
10:52 am
stidmama

10:52 am
LeslieAnn

10:53 am
smithchick
Hey, cyber! Beats washing floors anytime!
10:53 am
stidmama
hi nan! get dogs like mine, that makes washing floors futile so babbling can be a priority! LOL
10:53 am
LeslieAnn
there's a dh 6?? anyone have a clue for that?
10:53 am
smithchick
I gotta back stid up on that one. Especially in rainy weather.
10:54 am
smithchick
Hi, ASol!
10:54 am
ASol77
I dunno what I'm supposed to be doing here ... so I just try to find words!
10:54 am
Vicuna
dh6 - Hindu practice of fasting to accuse someone who harmed you. Anyway, has in the middle what you put ashes in, ends with vowel
10:55 am
LeslieAnn
yep asol, it's just like boggle... you can go to the help icon at the top of the page or angelsong's resource page below for an explanation of the rules
10:55 am
smithchick
That's the best place to start, ASol...
10:55 am
inge
great clue Vicuna, I couldnt put that togeterh myself.
10:55 am
stidmama
dh 6? *looking frantically*
hi ASol, check out Angelsongs Resources in the the "friends of babble" section at the bottom of this page.
10:55 am
Chasing Faeries
stuck on the di 5 18
10:55 am
Aussieme
Nice clue Vi, I got that straight away !!
10:55 am
ASol77
ok thanks!
10:55 am
smithchick
Never would have gotten that one, Vi...
10:55 am
hetty
dh6, leslieAnn, is very strange--an Indian vessel i think. Add what you put ashes (cremated remains ) in
and then add a first vowel
10:56 am
LeslieAnn
yeah, i *almost* had it from the fasting clue... aw, who am i kidding. i'll go for the idiot clue every time :)
10:56 am
LeslieAnn
asol, just ask if you have any questions. it's a friendly bunch.
10:56 am
bendamalina

bendamalina

hi smithchick
10:58 am
Dkerry
I still don't understand the 5/18 clue stuff. What do those numbers represent?
10:58 am
stidmama
number of letters in word/point value of word
10:58 am
Chasing Faeries
Dkerry, check out lickety's babble clues at the bottom of the page
10:58 am
stidmama
in the tile stats, it's number of words found/number of words starting with that letter
10:59 am
Chasing Faeries

ASol77

11:00 am
stidmama
thanks mimie... right back atcha!
11:01 am
adamw
dk, the first number is the number of letters in the word, the second is the points for the word. so 5/18 is a 5 letter word worth 18 points
11:01 am
smithchick
TY, mimie!!! I agree!!! Happy Mother's Day to one and all...biological or otherwise!
11:01 am
mattygroves
HU 5/16, anyone?
11:01 am
smithchick
You can go in what ever order you want, ASol as long as you don't use the same letter twice in one word.
11:01 am
cybernan
Are you leaving us for the weekend, mimie?

11:27 am
stidmama
true... they are pricey!
11:27 am
tndaisy1960
eeek nan...that's a LOT
11:28 am
hetty

11:28 am

oh daisy -- but SO worth it! my parents give us Murchies tea sometimes, it's such a lovely treat.
11:28 am

11:32 am
Aussieme

11:33 am
Minski
matty - the na6 is an alternate word for zero and I think it is probably used more in the UK than in the US.
11:33 am
smithchick
Is there an nu6? I'm missing three n's.
11:33 am
stidmama
btw matty, nice pic of you on the map, too!
11:33 am
Minski
the last 3 letters are all consonants

11:33 am

the na 6 is n + au 5
11:35 am

11:43 am

11:51 am
hurshy
ooohooh that's me
11:52 am
hurshy
the shakespearean fa is an interjection of digust
11:53 am
jaianniah
that fa is also in Heyer's books- fa+ an expression of surprise or disgust
11:53 am
hurshy
i think disgust. perhaps disbelief.
11:53 am
cybernan
and it ends the same as a great number of other words in this grid
11:53 am
Aussieme
Clever Hurshy !!
11:54 am

trills are the symbiants that inhabit multiple hosts, jadzea is one trill's host...
3:59 pm
hurshy
a trill is a humanoid that has the capability to be a symbiotic creature - meaning, this big worm that is another sentient being can be put inside the humanoid and they can sort of work together. it's a great honor to be a symbiont. jadzia's symbiont is dax.

5:28 pm
musicmom
I was afraid to get another addictive hobby....
5:28 pm
musicmom
then I found babble
5:28 pm

6:33 pm
helenkeller
hursh - who were talking about?
6:34 pm
hurshy
well, he is silly and at times aggravating to some, yes - but that is how 14 year old boys tend to be in general - i know cause i work with them. he's not malicious at all though.
6:34 pm
helenkeller
there are 3 to choose from :)
6:34 pm
smazing
that's why i named him Silly Willy.
6:34 pm
helenkeller
with the lost car - yeah, i would say that's weird!
6:34 pm
hurshy
i forgot i had talked to her once before and it was the same way, unfinished sentences, slow as molasses...
6:35 pm
hurshy
i can't figure out if she's got a screw loose or is a really weird sort of troll playing mind games
6:35 pm
faeriekae
Hurshy I'm missing the he 4/6 any clues are welcome PLEASE
6:35 pm
dbridges
i find that those two are highly correlated
6:35 pm
helenkeller
i think she may have some reading/writing disability
6:36 pm
SamanthaJoy
Faerie, that new icon is HOT!
6:36 pm
hurshy
oh faerie, i posted one for you at 6:28, right before helen came in
6:36 pm
helenkeller
said lose car when i think she in fact meant 'use' car - so it comes off as a little nutty
6:36 pm
dbridges
he4/6 ends in two consonants.
6:36 pm
helenkeller

ru4/7: take a floor decoration and add a vowel
6:38 pm
Aussieme
ty dbridges, I tried every combo except that one !!
6:39 pm
hurshy
if english is not her first language that might explain it too, but why hasn't she said so in that case - a simple "i'm ___________" would do.
6:39 pm
dbridges
they're always in the last place you look </meaningless platitude>
6:39 pm
hurshy
dbridges - college?
6:39 pm

Hey! Turtles are facinating, witty creatures who often have insightful antecdotes. I will not stand for this turtle bashing!
6:42 pm
hurshy
dbridges - deepest apologies, only meant in terms of speed.
6:42 pm
helenkeller
i agree dbridges, but they are not exactly sparkling conversationalists, lol
6:43 pm
dbridges
You, obviously, have not been hanging out with the right turtles.
6:43 pm
dbridges
Either that, or you haven't been doing the right drugs =P
6:43 pm

6:45 pm
Aussieme

SamanthaJoy
Down to five. Will be screaming for assistance shortly
6:46 pm

6:46 pm
dbridges
i've hit the wall completely, and with only 7/16 of the sixes!
6:47 pm
helenkeller
no, i just got here a little while ago - why were the posts deleted? swearing?

6:53 pm
SamanthaJoy
No, it's my third or fourth. I had to get a rhythm and my own technique going before I could manage
6:53 pm
shutterbug
I was going to say that I think you can use paypal to upgrade to pro.
6:53 pm

I can use paypal? Then I ain't leaving my seat!

mrpresident
Well, it is a great icon!!
6:54 pm

a clue please for the dang dh 6/ ...?
8:35 pm
hetty
Hi peri. Just dropped in to help if I can, having completeda minute ago. The fqa5 you are seeking is a real dilly of word, common in Restorqation there as an expression of disgust. Just think "u**" as an expostulation and then add it to your "fa"
8:35 pm
periwinkle
FranMag, must be dense just can't see the fa5/24
8:35 pm
tndaisy1960
dh + what you put ashes in + 1st vowel
8:35 pm
jeffer
ty tn daisy
8:35 pm
tndaisy1960
peri fa + 2 vowels together + consonat blend

I'll try again, peri, since my Restoration Drama went for a burden. Think of how to express disgust, beginning with the fiftyh vowel and then adding a 7th ad 8th word of the alphabet, and tack it onto your FA
8:37 pm

hetty, I found it already, but thanks

abe -- a common complaint -- I think we need to start a support group for the Spouses of Babblers (SOB)
10:01 pm
tndaisy1960
I guess I'll have to try that literati thing one of these days...
10:01 pm

10:01 pm
renfield

10:01 pm

Literati is fun, esp w/ a closed group of fellow Babbleholics
10:01 pm

10:01 pm

10:01 pm
tndaisy1960
yah...I'd want to play with my fellow babblonians
10:02 pm
stidmama
my Tom doesn't mind my babbling too much -- gives him time to geek out!
10:02 pm
pwinn
One hour, ouch.
10:02 pm
72 Temple Owl
and we all know it's no fun to play with someone who slows down the game
10:02 pm
stidmama
actually, pwinn, it's closer to two hours at the moment... switches at midnight central time
10:02 pm
tndaisy1960
I don't know if mine knows I babble or not...I think maybe he does. he probably just thinks it's another useless occupation...
10:03 pm
GreyWoulf
daisy -- my yahoo id is in my bio -- make me a contact and I will keep and eye out for you
10:03 pm
pwinn
Ah, good. I'm in central time, so that's easy to remember. i misunderstood the '+'

10:05 pm
tndaisy1960

72 Temple Owl
i planted notes made of flowers last year...they are lit as part of garden display
10:08 pm
pwinn
JW, think of something ostentatious, and then remove the trailing sometimes-vowel.
10:08 pm
pwinn
Also, pluralize it.
10:08 pm
stidmama
Woulf, my IM shows you as offline...
10:08 pm
stidmama
are you msn or yahoo?
10:08 pm
tndaisy1960

10:09 pm
pwinn
Also, add a consonant to the ga4/7

10:09 pm
72 Temple Owl
munner! how are you?
10:10 pm
pwinn
JW, funny thing is, I'm still trying to figure out the *other* ga5/16!
10:10 pm
stidmama
that worked... I had the whole email address and not just the login... grrrr why are things so hard?
10:10 pm
tndaisy1960
I did that too stid
10:10 pm
JeeWhiz
pwinn, looks a lot like a scary halloween creature...different vowel.
10:11 pm

I need one more ru and I cant figure it out.
10:11 pm
stidmama
there is ga 5/16: the "thin" word; that is plural the ga 4/7; the "spooky" ga; and then a couple of g a5/18s...
10:11 pm
shirin
I have the one thats part of a ladder
10:11 pm
Munner
Ok, Temple. Trouble typing as right arm is wrapped for ltymphedema treatment
10:12 pm
JeeWhiz
shirin, is it the floor covering + vowel?
10:12 pm
stidmama
do you have the ru that is an old Norse writing?
10:12 pm
GreyWoulf
technology overcomplicates things, stidmama --- remember how computers were supposed to reduce excess paper? My current job ends up generating 3 times the paper it really needs to, due to the unreliability of computer storage
10:12 pm
pwinn
Recite poetry until it comes to you, Shirin
10:12 pm
stidmama
the other ru is "smallest in the litter"
10:12 pm
JeeWhiz
Do you have the ru + body joint above the ankle?
10:12 pm
JeeWhiz
Grey Woulf, did you get your job?
10:13 pm
stidmama
yes, and sometimes I print things out because it's just easier to read...
10:13 pm
shirin
I have the floor covering
10:13 pm
GreyWoulf
Not yet -- but soon I hope -- I have started pushing at least once aday for commitment
10:13 pm
tndaisy1960
I'm just the opposite stid...I'd rather read in puter so I can adjust the font size!
10:13 pm
72 Temple Owl
that is a pain, munner...munner, did you get the gu word?
10:13 pm
shirin
no, i didnt! thats the one I needed, thank you
10:14 pm
GreyWoulf
I actually don't like reading too much on the monitor due to the angle I need to keep my head at
10:14 pm

10:17 pm
GreyWoulf
JeeWhiz -- it's actually not that bad -- if they back out at the last minute I will gained a lot from the experience and they will have lost more than they can appreciate
10:17 pm
Minski
OK. Last word. I need the first word. An AG6/24.

JeeWhiz

Hi - any anyone else having issues? I know that some of my words are counting - even though listed. And I think I am enetering valid words but they are not being accepted? anyone else?
10:20 pm
Minski
Oh....I guess I should say think about the good guys on X-Men.
10:21 pm
Minski
Nope. Never heard of Minski's pizza. For me Minski is a compound word meaning Mindy Skis.
10:21 pm
JeeWhiz
okay, minski and stidmama, I don't have a clue about your clues..i don't watch the x-men, and I seem to be going nowhere with radioactivity and genes.
10:21 pm
GreyWoulf
not really lynxx -- everything has been smooth for me tonight
10:22 pm
stidmama
lynxxx I have SO many issues! LOL and the server has been really bizarre today.
10:22 pm

JW, go camping but change the vowel, and tack that onto the end of nu.
10:22 pm
stidmama
Jee -- nu + Little Man T*** (jodie foster movie)
10:22 pm

10:23 pm

I am so glad they are gone and I hope they stay gone. It was BAD this afternoon with the little trolls.
10:23 pm
stidmama
does anyone else watch the Red Green show?
10:24 pm
stidmama
not completely out of the blue, the boys are watching an episode we taped this week...
10:24 pm
GreyWoulf
daisy -- I showed up during my break at work just as that was going on!!! Talk about a frustrating break -- when Dr G knocked them off I couldn't get back on for 10 minutes out of a 30 min break
10:24 pm
Minski
Never heard of the Red Green Show. Is it local to your area?
10:24 pm
stidmama
Hurshy apparently called the principal of their school and got them in trouble.... (grin) that's our hurshy!
10:24 pm
JeeWhiz
Glad I missed the trolls, are they the same ones that have been here the last few days?
10:25 pm
Minski
We love our Hurshy!!!!
10:25 pm

10:25 pm
stidmama

10:25 pm
GreyWoulf
stid -- down to 39 left
10:25 pm
stidmama
way to go! hard to concentrate with all the chatter...
10:25 pm
JeeWhiz
Okay, can you lead me in the direction of the nu5 now?
10:26 pm
shirin
you mean the trolls were Hurshy's students?
10:26 pm
stidmama
don't know JeeWhiz... that FredandKate was on later in the day though...
10:26 pm
Minski
plural of nu6
10:26 pm
stidmama
nu 5 plural the nu 4/6
10:26 pm
Minski
sorry nu4
10:26 pm

JW, it's a popular candy
10:26 pm
JeeWhiz
I think they have trolled before, but I missed them. They need a life.
10:26 pm
JeeWhiz
Oh I need a fish for the nu.
10:27 pm

JeeWhiz
OWWWWWWW, I needed that.
10:27 pm
Minveryork
I posted a message last week. I'm a newcomer. How do you guys know about words like nutate and other words that are not really English words?
10:28 pm
stidmama
do you want lemon, tartar sauce or malt vinegar with your order, ma'am?
10:28 pm
stidmama
we don't... we guess at them or find them in an online dictionary!
10:28 pm
Minveryork
I am glad you guys know these words because I read your clues and it helps me with my list of wods.Thanx
10:28 pm
JeeWhiz
Too many choices, too many fish to fry.
10:29 pm
pwinn
Technically, that word *is* English. But generally, playing games like this one helps to expand your vocabulary.
10:29 pm
Minski
There are a few very smart people who find all the words quickly and then give hints to those of us who are not so smart. We share the hints with everyone else.
10:29 pm
pwinn
And having spent all of a summer vacation reading a dictionary when you were in fifth grade doesn't hurt.
10:29 pm
stebla73
this is awesome
10:29 pm

some of it is just hunt/peck till you find a letter combo that works
10:29 pm

alsom Minveryork -- there is a great site called "Angelsong's Resource Page" link at the bottom in the "friends of babble" box... she has lots of great links and hints there.

The di word would be nice.
10:32 pm
Minveryork
Has anyone played Iron Sudoku that is advertised on this page? What is it like? Is it as good as Babble?
10:32 pm

I read the dictionary and the encyclopedia... and everything in the school library (except the teen magazines...)

I'm probably going to kick myself.

10:34 pm

the ha45 plus a consanant in the middle of the word
10:34 pm

lol - hk opens mouth wide
11:02 pm
helenkeller
that was quite a struggle - i resolved that if i went pro i would not use lickety's list anymore - i don't think that's going to work out so well, lol
11:03 pm
stidmama
I think that's a very ambitious goal helen! My limit is about 125 words then I start the list really early because I hate to transfer back and forth when there are over 200...
11:04 pm
nrkii
I try to get at least 2/3 of the words without the lickety list
11:04 pm
helenkeller
yep, it's alot of work, & heaven forbid you close that window
11:04 pm
nrkii
then I find it isn't fun anymore if I let myself be completely stumped, so I go to the list
11:04 pm
nrkii
helen, do you fill in the lickety list?
11:04 pm
helenkeller
i only learned the object (& value) of the grey boxes yesterday
11:05 pm
helenkeller
yes i do nrkii
11:05 pm
stidmama
I work until I stall, but like you nrkii, if it's not fun, I use the list to help. It's about fun and learning a few new words every day...
11:05 pm
LuwandaHL
I haven't gone pro yet but I keep meaning to
11:05 pm
stidmama
those grey boxes are great -- especially when you need just a few more words and there are several of the same letter in the grid.
11:05 pm
nrkii
oh, I don't know what the grey boxes are for yet
11:06 pm
stidmama
Luwanda, I think it's worth it. but, of course, most of the help I get from the clues in the list.
11:06 pm
helenkeller
yeah stid! here i was seeing them for how long now? & not realizing they corresponded exactly to the grid letters - knocks head on wall
11:06 pm
stidmama
nrkii -- they help you narrow down the startin letter... when I needed another g this morning, I could look at the list and see it HAD to come from the bottom corner... so it HAD to be either gh or ga...
11:07 pm
helenkeller
what is a fast way to see the list for icons?
11:07 pm
nrkii
wait, which grey boxes are we talking about?
11:07 pm
stidmama
what list for icons helen?
11:07 pm
helenkeller
themes
11:07 pm
stidmama
the tile stats I was talking about... the other ones work the same way...
11:08 pm
nrkii
oh, yeah, I love those!
11:08 pm
stidmama
Babbler's profile, I usually go to rankings and click her name there.
11:08 pm
nrkii
sorry, I thought we were talking about boxes on lickety's list, and I was confused
11:08 pm
helenkeller
yeah i love them too - now that i know what they are :)
11:09 pm
helenkeller
ok, thanks , it took me forever to try to import this icon & i still had to end up calling my neighbor & he walked me through it over the phone
11:09 pm
helenkeller
i told him i may be calling him tomorrow to do the same thing - he laughed
11:09 pm
stidmama
oh boxes on Lickety's list -- the check boxes I use when I already have all the words for a section before I get his list... that way I don't have to type so much.
11:09 pm
stidmama
:-) took me a while the first few times, too helen.
11:10 pm
helenkeller
it seems i have to put the thing in a file in my c drive - i can't just copy it directly
11:10 pm
nrkii
oh, I keep lickety's list open (very thin) on the left, and babble on the right, and just scroll them down together
11:10 pm
stidmama
yes, that is what I do, also. I am keeping a folder just for my babble icons now!
11:11 pm

11:13 pm
stidmama
when you want to make a folder, go to the " my computer" icon on your desktop and right click. Choose explore. Go to the directory where you want the new folder.
11:13 pm
stidmama
at the top of that window is a "file" tab, click on that, select NEW then "Folder".
