Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson go on a camping trip. After a good dinner and a bottle of wine, they retire for the night, and go to sleep.

2:53 am

Haz1558

She's currently attending to the paws. Serious business.

2:53 am

licketySplitAUS

Some hours later, Holmes wakes up and nudges his faithful friend. “Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see.”

2:53 am

licketySplitAUS

“I see millions and millions of stars, Holmes” replies Watson.

2:54 am

licketySplitAUS

“And what do you deduce from that?”

2:54 am

licketySplitAUS

Watson ponders for a minute. “Well,

The tent has blown away?

2:54 am

licketySplitAUS

Astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets.

2:54 am

licketySplitAUS

Astrologically, I observe that Saturn is in Leo.

2:54 am

licketySplitAUS

Horologically, I deduce that the time is approximately a quarter past three.

2:54 am

licketySplitAUS

Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow.

2:55 am

licketySplitAUS

Theologically, I can see that God is all powerful, and that we are a small and insignificant part of the universe.

2:55 am

licketySplitAUS

But what does it tell you, Holmes?”

2:55 am

licketySplitAUS

Holmes is silent for a moment.

2:55 am

licketySplitAUS

“Watson, you idiot!” he says. “Someone has stolen our tent!”

2:55 am

A man and a friend are playing golf one day at their local golf course. One of the guys is about to chip onto the green when he sees a long funeral procession on the road next to the course. He stops in mid-swing, takes off his golf cap, closes his eyes, and bows down in prayer.

Two guys are sitting on a bar stool. One starts to insult the other one. He screams, “I slept with your mother!” The bar gets quiet as everyone listens to see what the other weasel will do. The first again yells, “I SLEPT WITH YOUR MOTHER!”

A doctor says to his patient, “I have bad news and worse news”.

“Oh dear, what's the bad news?” asks the patient.

The doctor replies, “You only have 24 hours to live.”

“That's terrible”, said the patient. “How can the news possibly be worse?”

The doctor replies, “I've been trying to contact you since yesterday.”

3:02 am

Texan: “Where are you from?”
Harvard grad: “I come from a place where we do not end our sentences with prepositions.”

An Alsatian went to a telegram office, took out a blank form and wrote, “Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof.”

The clerk examined the paper and politely told the dog: “There are only nine words here. You could send another ‘Woof’ for the same price.”

“But,” the dog replied, “that would make no sense at all.”

Oh, she'll be pleased about that, and you too, of course.

4:48 am

grannymaxx

hope all goes well ata.

4:50 am

Atalante

it'll be nice to take her for a walk again, rather than her taking me for a walk

4:53 am

Haz1558

So, speaking of dog-walking, I'd better get ready for Spangle's walk. She's pretty good walking on the lead, except when she is within sight of home when she puts on a spurt. The worst thing is if she sees husband's car in the driveway. He's her hero!

4:54 am

Haz1558

So, I'll away and will check in later. Bye for now!

4:54 am

5:23 am

Atalante

if you can have a cr7/32, why can't you have a decr7/32?

5:25 am

lynxxx

perhaps because the cr is not the same meaning when it is with the de

5:26 am

Haz1558

The qu7/40 I clued for ends in the last letters of the hand and arm connector.

6:01 am

Atalante

where do you walk? do you have woods / fields / beaches / otehrs?

6:01 am

EspritdJean

ah, ty didn't know that was a word

6:02 am

Haz1558

Well, we're in a town, but there are fields nearby. Mind you, one of my favourite walks is through the local cemetery. You can let your imagination run riot with all the names and the sad stories.

6:03 am

Atalante

cemeteries are such wonderful places to let history seep through you. all the names and places ...

6:04 am

Haz1558

I know - one of the graves is of a young woman who died aged 29 - whose gentle character and kindly sympathy endeared her to all who knew her.'

6:04 am

Atalante

its funny, I always assumed you were in deepest, darkest countryside. no idea why!

6:05 am

Haz1558

No, it was originally a market town, still very much a shopping town but we are surrounded by countryside and on the gateway to the glens of Antrim.

6:05 am

6:09 am

Haz1558

Good morning Zen - warm again today.

6:09 am

lynxxx

Hi Zenmed

6:10 am

Haz1558

The Giants Causeway is weird, there's no two ways about it. It seems to be top of the list for visitors.

6:10 am

grannymaxx

hello carlee and zenmed :)

6:10 am

bichon

What is the Giant's Causeway and where is it?

6:11 am

grannymaxx

6:11 am

bichon

Mornin' all

6:11 am

Ragalla

http://www.giantscausewayofficialguide

6:11 am

Haz1558

The Giants Causeway is on the north coast of Antrim, basically basalt columns of hexagonal rock. Legend says it was created for the giants to cross from Ireland to Scotland. I'll find a picture.

6:11 am

Jacula

Morning all. bichon - see for yourself at...http://www.northantrim.com/giants
causeway.htm

6:12 am

Atalante

Its at the top of Northern Ireland, and its an area where the rocks have formed into a whole "stairway" of hexagonal basalt bits

6:12 am

Ogdens Nut

Hi Haz & lynxxx, weird but wonderful to be talking with 2 people from opposite sides of the globe at the same time...

6:12 am

Jacula

(Hope that link didn't expand the chatlog!)

6:12 am

grannymaxx

hello jacula :)

clue for vi5.16 (second one)??

6:13 am

Jacula

I've made the link smaller. Here it is: http://tinyurl.com/ecf7d

6:13 am

lynxxx

its great isn't it Zenmed. I just love the way I can get world news first on here rather than any other media

6:14 am

Jacula

2nd vi5/15 - same as 1st but with a consonant at the end.

6:14 am

Inge2

what a fascinating place, Jacula (and yay for tinyurl!)

6:14 am

bichon

Sure is beautiful. Do you live near there?

6:15 am

Haz1558

Okay, I've changed icons to illustrate Giants Causeway. I live about 15 or 20 miles from it.

6:15 am

Atalante

want to go to Armagh also because of the Deidre mythology

6:15 am

grannymaxx

anyone know where i can print out a world map to show where everyone is??

6:15 am

Atalante

wow. wonderful pic

6:15 am

Jacula

granny - the frappr site has that.

6:16 am

Haz1558

My mother's ancestors came from Co Armagh, but I don't know it terribly well. Armagh city is lovely, it has a cricket green right in the middle.

6:16 am

bichon

Haz, you are very luck to have such great places to walk on a day-to-day basis

6:16 am

Buttonman

morning all

6:16 am

grannymaxx

ok will try, thanks jacula

6:17 am

Inge2

we could make a babble map for Frappr

6:17 am

Jacula

granny - http://www.frappr.com/babble

6:17 am

Jacula

Inge - there already is one. See link below.

6:17 am

Buttonman

have all the q's but the first one, can someone clue me for the fist qu 8 please

6:17 am

Inge2

aha... it exists!

6:17 am

Haz1558

We're as guilty as anybody of taking the beauty of our country for granted. I came originally from near Carrickfergus where there is a 12th century castle. It was only later that I realised that it is quite something - we were so used to it that we hardly noticed it.

6:18 am

grannymaxx

that /babble was what i missed

6:18 am

Ogdens Nut

I have the questions word, the one who questions & plural; is there a 4th question word?

6:18 am

Buttonman

first QU 8 PLEASE

6:18 am

Haz1558

qu8/55 - is what the nauseous person feels when there's something to make them feel worse.

6:19 am

Atalante

we've been really trying this year to explore Kent. there is *so* much here of beauty

6:19 am

Haz1558

The last qu7 - looks like another word for one who poses questions. It uses the last four letters of the hand and arm connector.

6:20 am

Buttonman

Haz, I don't get the clue

6:20 am

grannymaxx

how about vi5.16 (second one) ?

6:21 am

Haz1558

Buttonman - think of another word for feeling slightly sick (beginning with qu, then make it more so. Or qu, plus a word meaning simpler or less difficult.

6:21 am

Atalante

v + angers

6:21 am

Haz1558

vi5/16 - the second one is an anagram of the first.

6:21 am

Ogdens Nut

Wow, that's a grey q block now; ty Haz

6:21 am

Haz1558

You're welcome Zen.

6:24 am

Haz1558

Off I toddle again, babbling doth not a clean or tidy house make. Bye for now!

6:49 am

mrpresident

6:50 am

carleekat

i knew his first wife... and the kids...

6:50 am

licketySplitAUS

I share mrp's thoughts too!

6:50 am

carleekat

there was a murder suicide here... ( my husband does not know the people involved sorry for confusion ) involving a retired PO and a woman who was rising star in a local force...

6:51 am

Anniebrook

Oh, that is awful, so sorry

6:51 am

carleekat

my next door neighbour growing up..who was like 2nd dad..and his kids my siblings ( i am only child ) was best friends and partners with him while on the P force

6:52 am

Mom

Carlee, my condolences

6:52 am

carleekat

and as I was always around I grew up knowing dave... not well...cus I wasa kid..but I remember him always around

6:52 am

kc8501

ahhhh. ok. so, I'm looking at the articles, are they suspecting that she shot him??? 's what it looks like

6:52 am

carleekat

its just horrible that it is being splashed everwhere in our news here...no escaping the horror

6:53 am

carleekat

no idea.. she was just promoted..he was divorced or going through divorce ( I lost track after moving out of town..but am still in touch with the best friend... )

6:54 am

kc8501

ahhh. well, it sucks the whole way round. Sorry it was someone you knew

6:55 am

goldies

ca5,18 please

6:55 am

carleekat

she was a "rising star" in the london force...and he was an icon ... really an amazing officer so meticulous and always involved in the worst investigations..the irony was she worked in childabuse and rape and spousal abuse areas of crimes

6:56 am

goldies

So Lickety any idea when the next Babble Experts coming out?

no, they won't hold them back. Just keep pushing them forward, but she's supposed to go into 5th grade and her reading level is only at a 3.2 grade level, her projected skills for next year only bring her to 4.5 and she didn't get very good grades.

7:15 am

melonheadjujube

hi, Mom, lived in cinci 1975/77 (grad school UC CCM) - back in Cleveland, somehow 4 hours on I-71 seems a bit much ;)

7:15 am

kc8501

dunno. I know this is whats right, but I just feel awful for having to do it. Guess I feel like I failed her somewhere

7:15 am

melonheadjujube

hi, kc, has your kid had a multi-factored eval? don't assume you've failed her.

7:16 am

Jayde287

Good Morning from the US - how many words today?

7:16 am

melonheadjujube

i aske because i have a boy with learning disabilities - getting special ed has actually pushed up to near grade level - the teachers are so devoted.

7:16 am

Jayde287

Thanks so much!:)

7:18 am

kc8501

No, shes's been in special ed for 1.5 years because of her reading issues. The real issue is that she fought learning it and has been falling further and further behind because her skills aren't moving as fast as she is grade wise

7:18 am

mrpresident

is she on social par with her peers kc?

7:18 am

Mom

Melon, I agree 4 hours on the road to do laundry is a bit of an exteme/

7:19 am

Mom

7:19 am

7:23 am

kc8501

depends on who you talk to mr P. at home all her friends are younger. It's just the whole stigma thing of repeating a grade.

7:24 am

mrpresident

hmmm, yes, I can see your problem ... my friend had to repeat her daughter in year 5, same reasons you have. She is doing very well now in year 6! has more confidence too

7:25 am

kc8501

yeah. Thats my hope. I KNOW this will be best for her, but I still feel bad over it all. *sigh* no one ever said being a parent was easy.

Babble, I'm just passing through and thought I'd say hello. I haven't been on much at the same time as you recently. Are you keeping okay?

10:15 am

BabbleRabble

Hello, Haz. I am working at it. Thanks for asking.

10:16 am

Haz1558

That's good to hear.

10:16 am

Haz1558

I'm guessing you classify this grid as being a real stroll in the park?

10:17 am

BabbleRabble

It has its challenges like all grids do. I am enjoying it.

10:17 am

hetty

"While strollling in the park one day/In the mery erry month of May/ I was taken by surprise by a pair of roguish eyes. . .

10:18 am

hetty

That's for you two, Haz and Babblerabble

10:18 am

Haz1558

I enjoyed it as well, lots of sequences and a few nuggets to mine.

10:18 am

BabbleRabble

Thanks, hetty

10:19 am

hetty

two pairs ofroguish eyes in fact

10:19 am

Haz1558

Hello hetty - now who owns the roguish eyes, I wonder?

10:19 am

Haz1558

Ah, that makes it clear!

10:21 am

hetty

You do, of coursse. My dad used to sing that song--". . .a smile is all she gave to me (whistle) I immediately raised my hat, and finally she remarked/ Oh I never shall forget that afternoon in May when I met her by the fountain in the park!"

10:22 am

Haz1558

I've just googled it, hetty, to remind myself. There used to be a programme on British Television called 'The Good Old Days' when they tried to recreate the variety theatre of old. That was one of the songs sung.

10:22 am

carleekat

h all again

10:23 am

pabtrek

ce8 clue please

10:24 am

Haz1558

The programme came from a theatre in Leeds, the audience dressed up in Victorian costume, we had Leonard Sachs as compere, and all manner of singers, jugglers, illusionists etc. It would probably be laughed off the screen now, but I used to enjoy it as a child.

10:25 am

Haz1558

Pabtrek there is a cr8/45 - add a vowel to the preceding cr7/32 to give a comparative ending.

10:25 am

jillibus

My dad, like other members of my family on both sides, loved the old music hall songs and we used to sing them at family gatherings--your Leeds memories were probably from re-enacted music hall number

10:26 am

jillibus

*numberS

10:26 am

pabtrek

oh thanks Haz, meant cr8

10:27 am

Haz1558

Yes, there were all sorts of old songs ' Daisy, Daisy', 'If you were the only girl in the world'. etc. They don't write them like that any more!

10:28 am

hetty

Oops! I've somehow got myuself on Jillibuses account! Sorry about that--judst deleted it--thye last two entires were from me, not my pal.

10:28 am

Haz1558

The compere was deliberately verbose and would never describe something simply when a longer word was available. Conjurors were introduced as 'Masters of Prestidigitation'

10:29 am

hetty

As for "Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer do--", that was my own "party piece" at family singalong parties

10:30 am

EvaNadine

she would take the palm of your hand + "walk" her 2 fingers on your hand singing:

"walking round the garden
like a teddy bear
one step, two steps
tickle you under there!"
(tickling your underarm)

10:45 am

Karys

hello everyone.....my great grandad used to sing about 'two little girls in blue , dear'....I havn't heard it anywhere else.

10:45 am

hetty

Did that with all my kids and grandkids, only I used to sing "Round and round the garden. . . Tickly under there!" must be regional variations as in many nursery rhymes

10:47 am

hetty

"They were sisters, we were brothers and learned to love those two. . . One litle girl in blue, lad, won your father's heart/ Became your mother--I married the other but now we have drifted apart"

10:47 am

Karys

oh yes Deeha.... I remember that too !!!

12:48 pm

carleekat

i LOVe them... they are great entertainment...

12:48 pm

hurshy

now, you understand, our company is called Marine Construction Management and when you walk in there are about a million pictures of boats on the walls

12:48 pm

hurshy

12:48 pm

hurshy

stupid boys.

12:48 pm

GoBraves

Atalante

12:53 pm

kristinc

My mandarin skills consist of preschool terms (do you have to go the bathroom? come here, eat your lunch etc.)

12:53 pm

Atalante

no, bichon, the ir5

12:54 pm

kristinc

If that is all you need to say you speak a language, then I probably speak 5 or 6 :)

12:54 pm

bichon

GoBraves

12:54 pm

kristinc

12:54 pm

carleekat

I remember when nixon was in china... my mum's boss was on some medical program that was in correlation to nixon being there ( I was about 5 or 6 at the time ) and so he was there and we woul dhave to at that time go to the airport to receive mail from her boss from RCMP officers there...

12:55 pm

12:56 pm

Atalante

looooove Jayne

12:56 pm

stidmama

the TV show was much more satisfying than the movie "Serenity" -- I would watch the TV show and then the movie to get things straight...

12:57 pm

Dindrane

I reject the movie ever happened. :p Wash and Book are still flying!

12:57 pm

Atalante

Serenity is weird. Cos it just *almost* fits with the TV. and poor darling Wash!

12:57 pm

Sudokuaddict

Atalante

1:01 pm

stidmama

1:01 pm

kristinc

hurshy

1:16 pm

kristinc

later hursh, have fun

1:17 pm

Dindrane

1 of my cats will be 11 next week, and another will be 11 the following week.

1:21 pm

EvaNadine

*yawn* i think i have food coma!

1:22 pm

kristinc

food comas...especially when it is warm are the worst! can't stay awake sometimes

1:22 pm

EvaNadine

had a turkey burger for lunch, so im sure the triptophan (sp?) is kicking in!

1:23 pm

Cherrypop

I knew there was a reason for eating TOO much-food coma. I love this site-I have learned SO much! lol

1:24 pm

kristinc

it is not pets cherry, it's foods...2 major topics of conversation around here

1:24 pm

Cherrypop

Works for me!

1:25 pm

EvaNadine

dont forget kids + trolls

1:26 pm

kristinc

very true...lots of trolls recently

1:26 pm

Vicuna

Hello, all. I think the troll ate my kids and my cat and fell asleep. Nice weather here, though.

1:26 pm

EvaNadine

perfect, vicuna. ;)

1:26 pm

kristinc

hi vicuna :)

1:27 pm

Cherrypop

ROTFLMAO Vicuna

1:27 pm

Vicuna

And people say not to feed the trolls. If you feed them enough to induce coma, it could just work!

1:28 pm

Vicuna

People have to be willing to sacrifice their kitties and dachshunds, of course, but I think that's a small price to pay for a little peace and quiet.

1:28 pm

EvaNadine

yes, its gotta be all or nothing!

1:28 pm

EvaNadine

shame there arent any canniaballistic trolls out there...

1:29 pm

Vicuna

Oh, I think they'd be happy to eat each other. Unfortunately when they do it makes a truly disgusting mess all over the chat log.

1:30 pm

kristinc

lol

1:31 pm

EvaNadine

but they WOULD eventually run out of a food source, thus rendering themselves unable to continue as a species...

1:31 pm

BRAGIRL

dr5,12 and 6,21 after the person without the moisture

1:31 pm

Vicuna

True... But don't they spontaneously generate from the muck and ooze of unsupervized computers?

1:32 pm

EvaNadine

alas, this IS true

1:33 pm

EvaNadine

BUT

1:33 pm

Vicuna

Yes????

1:33 pm

kristinc

I don't have a list yet bra girl but I have 3 related to the dr condition you just mentioned...2 5s and a 6/21

1:33 pm

EvaNadine

isnt is the adults who mutated from troll form who leave their troll offspring unsupervised AT said computers?
ergo, if we eliminate the trolls from mutating into said adults, there would be no more unsupoervised trolls at computers....

1:34 pm

BRAGIRL

i have them but i need the one before the car

1:34 pm

kristinc

make that 4 bragirl

1:35 pm

Vicuna

You may be onto something, EvaN. We need one of those products that works on adults, larvae, and eggs.

1:35 pm

kristinc

ah, I don't have anything after those then on my word list but I'm just getting started, no car either...sorry

1:36 pm

EvaNadine

Super-Duper, Highly-Advanced, Extra-Strength Troll-B-Gone

1:36 pm

kristinc

but I did just get the car related ones, so thanks

1:37 pm

Vicuna

Exactly. So the question is, does feeding the trolls a surfeit of pets function in this way?

1:37 pm

kristinc

you guys should go into business together

1:38 pm

Vicuna

(Don't have those, by the way, BRAGIRL, but I'm looking while I blather.)

1:39 pm

Vicuna

(But I'm kind of dubious. How many dr5/12 - 6/21's in a row should there be?)

1:40 pm

stidmama

hi again. just a few minutes to play I think --

1:40 pm

EvaNadine

i say we get them into the food coma state -- this would enable the administration of the Troll-B-Gone

1:40 pm

carleekat

have we got a troll problem again?

1:40 pm

kristinc

I have 2 sets vicuna for a total of 4, all about the same topic...might be missing some though

1:40 pm

Vicuna

Hello, stidmama. You're back in the grid yet again today.

1:40 pm

kristinc

no we're discussing ways to remedy it shall it occur again

1:41 pm

Vicuna

No, none at the moment, carlee. Just amusing ourselves.

1:41 pm

kristinc

yes, stid has been in the grid a lot recentl

1:41 pm

Vicuna

Me too, kristinc, but BRAGIRL says she's looking for another.

1:41 pm

carleekat

so far the most effective way I have seen thus far was to turn the chat into a playground...they run in horror

1:41 pm

stidmama

LOL yes, I seem to be popular with enable these days

1:41 pm

kristinc

actually some very good ideas from resident troll experts vicuna and evanadine

1:41 pm

carleekat

pretty funny actually when it happened

1:42 pm

kristinc

okay, well I'm not sure then...hollar if you find one vic

1:42 pm

BRAGIRL

second re6,21

1:42 pm

stidmama

I just ignore them. If they don't go away, I let Dr. G know and he scatters their ashes to the winds...

1:42 pm

Vicuna

I was just trying to combine Babble's four most popular topica of chat: kids, pets, food, and trolls.

1:42 pm

kristinc

no, these ideas are troll prevention!

1:43 pm

Vicuna

EvaN is ambitious enough to envision the extinction of all troll-kind.

1:43 pm

carleekat

oh shoot that reminds me..i need to find a recipe that is "native american" ( ojibwa actually ) that uses wild rice

1:43 pm

stidmama

I don't know if we can prevent trolls -- but we can sure step on them when they appear!

1:44 pm

EvaNadine

stid -- we still report them, but weve found that if we "join in" on their elementary school gossip, they realize that theyre not quite the nuisance they wish to be, so they just leave...

1:44 pm

stidmama

I don't like the DE words today. help on the de 6 after the 7/36 that is to die?

1:44 pm

riemann

Hiya Stid! How goes?

1:44 pm

carleekat

to lie and cheat is de****

1:44 pm

Vicuna

My next is de6/24 - lay down a law

1:44 pm

stidmama

hi riemann not too bad, you?

1:45 pm

Vicuna

Ooo, carlee's comes first!

1:45 pm

stidmama

thanks Vicuna.... *thinking*

1:45 pm

kristinc

my next is carlees as well

1:45 pm

riemann

Just great! Volunteered for a math demo at a brand new science center in town.

1:45 pm

stidmama

1:45 pm

carleekat

1:45 pm

stidmama

1:45 pm

Judi

Hey, all you troll bashers! TGIF!

1:46 pm

kristinc

hi reimann, hi judi

1:46 pm

EvaNadine

*steals judis mel gibson doll and holds it up really, really high so she cant reach it*

1:46 pm

riemann

They loved the ad. Now I just have to do the workshop. First date is June 29.

1:47 pm

stidmama

oh -- so you are still to do it! sounds like a good idea (math is too often left out of the cool things)... your anticipated age range?

1:48 pm

Judi

Hey, Stid... what are you doing with a Chinese flag? Did you suddenly go commie on us? *proudly displays unopened boxed set of all the Ocean's 13 action figures*

1:48 pm

Judi

Mel Gibson is so two days ago.

1:49 pm

EvaNadine

*steals george clooney, brad pitt, and matt damon and runs off*

1:49 pm

Vicuna

Oh, kids in evidence. I must go be parental. Bye, all!

1:49 pm

stidmama

okay, got the lay down the law 6/24.... need to find the lie and cheat one

1:49 pm

riemann

I'm doing a hands-on geometry workshop. ages 12+. Topics: areas of squares, rectangles, right triangles. Wrap up with the Pythagorean theorem.

1:49 pm

kristinc

bye vicuna

1:49 pm

stidmama

excellent! I'll send stidkid over!

1:49 pm

stidmama

later Vicuna!

1:50 pm

kristinc

stid, sounds similar to the paper you get when you pay for your groceries

1:51 pm

riemann

Thought of the young stidkid when designing the workshop. I'm avoiding algebra, so elder stidkid would not be harmed either.

1:51 pm

stidmama

oh! I must have been mis-typing! thanks Kristin!

1:51 pm

stidmama

yes, I am sure Tom would find it useful! *wicked grin*

1:51 pm

kristinc

yep :)

1:51 pm

riemann

Even Stidmama might understand. *duck*

1:52 pm

stidmama

I am now finito avec die DE palabras... *mangling words in five languages now*

1:52 pm

stidmama

oh riemann, you know I am so far past that... unless you present it in colors and textures you'll have me lost in no time!

1:53 pm

riemann

No budget for textures, but the workshop uses construction paper.

1:53 pm

stidmama

Done with D words!!!! a mere 49 remaining

1:54 pm

stidmama

*thinking* I might be able to handle construction paper...

1:54 pm

kristinc

go stid go!

1:54 pm

stidmama

and Eliminated the E words...

1:54 pm

Judi

Evaaaaa.... we can both play with my Ocean's 13 action figures. I'm not having much fun with my Eliot Gould doll here.

1:55 pm

Judi

And my Carl Reiner looks like a melted wax figure.

1:55 pm

stidmama

Flounced the F words

1:55 pm

EvaNadine

hey, youve got don cheadle too!

1:55 pm

stidmama

1:56 pm

stidmama

"i"liminiated the I words

1:56 pm

kristinc

6:17 pm

Jadeomoan

Nope, no one's invited me to do the babblecast.

9:33 pm

SMDNJV

One night when I was playing sudoku.....Hurshy had a conversation with herself on mosquitoes. I was still laughing when I tried to go to sleep that night!!

9:33 pm

pam

LOLOLOLOLOL

9:33 pm

pam

Yeee Haaa, Book

9:33 pm

hurshy

i don't remember that one. mosquitoes? what on earth would i have to say about mosquitoes?

9:34 pm

hurshy

oh i remember

9:34 pm

hurshy

that wasn't very long ago

9:34 pm

hurshy

it was about how i wouldn't mind if they sucked my blood if it didn't have to itch

9:35 pm

SMDNJV

Why do mosquito bites have to itch so badly. I don't mind them having a little of my blood but why does it have to itch so much......remmber that Hurshy??

9:35 pm

tttmt

I saw that in suduko too

9:35 pm

tttmt

:)

9:35 pm

tttmt

I'm new to suduko too

9:35 pm

hurshy

really the species would do better if they didn't make people itch. but they do so well as it is... really, that is evidence of God and not pure natural selection right there.

9:35 pm

SMDNJV

Now I will be laughing again when I go to bed tonight

9:35 pm

tttmt

Been a couple of weeks but some of the puzzles take me 8 minutes and some take me hours

9:35 pm

hurshy

mosquito population control.

9:36 pm

tttmt

what about bees

9:36 pm

hurshy

what about bees?

9:36 pm

tttmt

poor things if you step on them they sting you then they die

9:36 pm

tttmt

barefooted I mean

9:36 pm

hurshy

bees are the greek tragedians of the insect world

9:36 pm

bensmatrix

8mins??

9:37 pm

lbdawger

they deserve to die if they sting me!

9:37 pm

hurshy

i take that back, there are tons of greek tragedians in the insect world.

9:37 pm

bensmatrix

how many words is a reasonalbe number to get?

9:37 pm

SMDNJV

I am with you dawger on that one!!

9:37 pm

hurshy

today, 195 is a reasonable number to get

9:37 pm

tttmt

8 minutes in a sudoku puzzle

9:37 pm

bensmatrix

i said reasonable

9:37 pm

Gkmandy

how many words please?

9:37 pm

hurshy

well

9:37 pm

hurshy

my point is

9:38 pm

lbdawger

reasonable is debatable

9:38 pm

Gkmandy

bens you put a word the sa4/5

9:38 pm

hurshy

that reasonable is very POV dependent

9:38 pm

pam

I am lucky when I get half, LOL... I just don't have the sticktoitiveness.... 195 total

9:38 pm

hurshy

yes, what dawg said.

9:38 pm

SMDNJV

lol pam

9:39 pm

lbdawger

on a 400+ grid half is reasonable, but then so is walking away.

9:39 pm

tttmt

I'm proud of my 35 words tonight :)

9:39 pm

hurshy

you see it was an irony thing. giving you an answer to demonstrate that there could be no answer

9:39 pm

bensmatrix

gotcha

9:39 pm

pam

LOL, lbd

9:39 pm

SMDNJV

I love this game....but I love the chatters more!!

9:39 pm

lbdawger

35 is a good start lttmt

9:39 pm

hurshy

the answer lies within your heart (is celine dion listening, she could use this for lyrics)

9:39 pm

lbdawger

chatting is certainly the fun part of working the grid

9:39 pm

bensmatrix

it wasn't a philosophical question - just a simple one requiring an indicative answer ... but thanks.

9:40 pm

hurshy

well if you want it to be indicative it can be that too

9:41 pm

SMDNJV

FIREWORKS!!

9:41 pm

pam

Bens, some people are not "happy" unless they finish... some set a half or 2/3 goal, some have no goal... babble is what you make of it, philosophical or not...

9:41 pm

bensmatrix

cool - 'cause i think i'm about to hit the wall and apparentl there are 99 words left!!

9:42 pm

hurshy

pam, i think you are overstating the case... finishing doesn't make me happy - happy is a state i cannot hope to attain - it merely sates the addiction til tomorrow.

9:42 pm

lbdawger

whoooo hoooo smd!

9:42 pm

pam

i see, hursh...

9:42 pm

SMDNJV

LOL Bens

hurshy

the dictionary is a collection of words put in alphabetical order, accompanied by part of speech, pronunciation guide, definition, and often an example sentence and/or etymological background

9:44 pm

tttmt

just it's a telecom term used at work

9:45 pm

pam

9:45 pm

lbdawger
