MollyL

Here are some words for Babble. One of the stages of our cherry blossoms here in the DC area is "peduncle elongation"

5:28 pm

cybernan

stuck on the em 6 - help please?

5:33 pm

bookwomen

this is a bad clue. em same vowel is used three times and plural. other one change the vowel at the end. def is to vomit.

5:47 pm

bookwomen

firewords. any other clues before I leave?

5:48 pm

cybernan

ty again

5:48 pm

MetFan

Does mkg ever do a grid by herself? Seems to me she's ALWAYS asking for help.

5:53 pm

cybernan

I'm finding myself asking for help more than I ever did. I think part of it is age - harder to concentrate. It will be interesting to see how well you do in 20 years!

5:54 pm

bigbirdboss

Don't we all need help?

5:56 pm

MollyL

There is a difference between asking for a clue now and then and constantly asking for clues.

6:03 pm

bigbirdboss

If you don't like it just ignore it. I say always give help if you can.

6:04 pm

crosshair

I do not mind offering help when it is asked for. Lord knows I ask for help from time to time. It is just a word game after all. We each enjoy it in our own way.

6:14 pm

crosshair

Some, like myself, play the game to help keep our mental faculties sharp because of a medical condition. Some of us may need more help than others, others may fly through it in fifteen minutes after the flip. We all play each according to our gifts. If mkg needs a bit more help that is fine as well.

6:18 pm

crosshair

I am not feeling the grid tonight. Have a good evening, Babblers.

6:40 pm

moolingwa

7:49 pm

hokie carla

7:49 pm

penquis

7:49 pm

BzznBea

7 je and 1 ji

7:49 pm

penquis
