1:22 am

It wasn't a critical success but what do the critics know?

6:27 am

he likely decides what he wants/ needs and goes and gets it

6:28 am

how about a couple's day at the spa?

I want to buy him a jump from an airplane... thought that would scare him into slowing down!

6:28 am

i have a neighbour ( a plumber) who's wife dragged him once...now he goes for spa days on his own..LOVES it....trying tot alk all the other men in neighbourhood to go

6:29 am

bfsog, it is the big 4-OH!

6:34 am

( honestly crossy..i've never gone... pinkie swear )

6:34 am

uh huh

Bethany asks, 'what is wrong with flowers?' Carla replies.... 'well, whenever Bob gives me flowers he has certain "expectations", and I just don't feel like spending the next 3 days on my back with my legs in the air'....

6:35 am

she should buy a vase instead it might be easier;)

Bethany asks, 'don't you have a vase?'

6:35 am

snap

6:35 am

hahaha

6:36 am

9:36 am

lol Laters Annie, have a good one.

9:36 am

Be well, Annie

9:37 am

love the poem, BR *poof*

9:44 am

Hello again - flosey, if you're still here, e-mail has been sent, apologies for the delay. You should check the junk folder since I'm not on your list of contacts.

9:44 am

I think normalia should be a word...

9:45 am

Please post one of the 30 words I don't have. G' morning as, Haz

9:46 am

omg... i am so sick of this grid already... must come back later! By all!

9:46 am

lori... I only have 62 words, but I'd give you a clue if I can!

9:47 am

Good morning Lori. All the world wanted to phone me as soon as you spoke.

9:48 am

and I'm sorry, I should have said "no 6, 21 + ia"

9:48 am

If it weren't for me adding es to every word, just in case (and with surprising results) I'd need even more words. ***sigh***

9:49 am

I'm reduced to trying Fred Flintsone's wife, just in case.

9:49 am

Try a smoover approach to get in to cabana boy heaven. :D

9:50 am

I tried Mr Fudd multiple times,a nd continue to, just in case it's suddenly accepted.

9:50 am

If we had a y, you could have his pet name instead 'Elmy'

9:51 am

w was about the only letter I didn't struggle with. Gah

9:51 am

back again and thanks Haz, am sure it will arrive just fine, hubby will let me know when it comes in

9:51 am

G'd mornin' flosey

9:51 am

morning Lori

9:52 am

I've sent it as an attachment (word document) so it should be printable. Hope you enjoy making it, flosey!

gm wordminers

9:52 am

word is fine ghanks Haz

9:53 am

Hello Esprit. We wordminers are revolting.

9:53 am

We blame the grid.

9:53 am

Esprit! How goes the battle, or should I skip that question....

about the same as everyone else Lori

it sucks moose

9:53 am

I'm not revolting! Annoying maybe, but not revolting. :p

haz, I've never found you people to be revolting

9:54 am

We're up in arms, we're still charming while revolting.

I have the pu8, anyone have the other 8?

charmingly revolting

9:54 am

na8 is the other.

9:54 am

na 8/50 which is dumb

9:55 am

na8 is not a word that springs quickly to one's lips, I'll agree.

is it remotely no****?

9:55 am

Can I do a Star Wars clue?

9:55 am

a lot of made up words in this grid.

why would today be any different?

9:55 am

ha ha ha ha ha ha define normal.

to the PB miss lori

9:56 am

Ooh, shouldn't it smehow be a Star Trek clue since that's in theaters now?

9:56 am

Gah. aslind should be giggling right about now. ***sulks off to PB***

I'm not a trekkie so I might not get it

9:57 am

na, two letters of rising encouragement to Star Wars Princess, wrap it up with a consonant

9:57 am

You can't force a Star Wars character into Star Trek just because there's a new movie out. It would disturb the continuum or something.

9:57 am

heh heh heh I salute you on that one Haz.

does the word have a definition?

9:58 am

If you can't have a Camelot King today, we make use of the Star Wars princess instead.

9:58 am

Definition has something to do with crustaceans.

delicious?

10:00 am

Not a de 6/24 to be seen anywhere either.

10:00 am

It relates to a larval form of crustacean so probably not big enough to eat.

10:00 am

I know. No de6/24, no backwards deer, no nothing.

10:02 am

Not even a volcano. Ack

10:03 am

It's pitiful, I tell you, pitiful.

10:04 am

muh god. After trying to make an fu 6 work (a partly sated male, maybe?) it actually was accepted when I tried an r at the end.

10:04 am

I hate this grid and all it represents.

10:04 am

are there actually more than 70 words here? I'm beginning to think it's all a colossal joke *sob*

10:05 am

146, but that's my final offer mag. :p

10:05 am

I could do so much if the letters were just in the right places

10:06 am

Take heart, magmom. The words are there. (Lying through my teeth, I have no solid evidence that there are really 171 words)

10:06 am

ma6/33 is a partly sated male

10:06 am

I think George Clooney is ma7/32 than all those partly sated males.

10:06 am

this freakin' na8 is going to drive me insane

10:06 am

and what you found is a seabird. To replace the mysteriously absent erne.

10:06 am

Afternoon/morning all A not so nice grid I hear!

10:06 am

heh, thanks Vic! Didn't have that. G'd mornin'!

10:07 am

And greetings Vicuna.

10:07 am

i hav e solid evidence of 104

10:07 am

Hello, all! =D

10:07 am

It's a stinker, FM.

10:07 am

FM! ***whap*** Hi :p

10:08 am

Can you really make a comparative of that, Haz? I've been trying and trying...

10:08 am

sorry, ruru -- i have solid evidence that there are ONLY 86 words today. because seriously, if there were more, i would totally have them. :P

10:08 am

na, plus not down, Princess of Star Wars (or greatest boxer mixed up - 3 letters) finish off with consonant that starts Princess's name.

10:08 am

*double whammy back*

10:08 am

Oh for heavens sake - phone BRB

10:08 am

ma7/32 - bearing more male qualities than another = George.

10:08 am

oh.... that comparative...

10:09 am

FM hit me hard enough to make this grid go away....

10:09 am

Does FM not mean - oh for heaven's sake phone the Samaritans.

10:09 am

ty haz

10:09 am

I have tried what would be an ma9 about a dozen times.

10:09 am

that is definitely a made up word!

10:09 am

I refuse to believe that na is a word... it's just a bunch of letters tossed together

10:09 am

Prob'ally the dry cleaners saying her tunic is ready....

10:09 am

Absolutely, Esprit. You've hit the nail on the head.

10:10 am

We warned ya' Esprit....

10:10 am

well, then I am revolting too!

10:10 am

All words are made-up words, sillies!

10:10 am

Haz...are you in the PB? Cuz, if not you should be!

10:10 am

Hooray! We've got a revolting Esprit!

10:10 am

Well, Esprit, take a shower and maybe you won't be so revolting any more.

10:11 am

Remember how I've suggested having a ticker tape with news items etc? Maybe Dr-G should appoint a committee to decide how nasty grids are and allow us to post warnings.

10:11 am

I live alone, I can afford not to shower

10:12 am

So, not showering, living alone, no connection?

10:12 am

nope, no one here to know I don't shower

10:12 am

We know, we know!

10:12 am

Also, if one wants to be alone, not showering will eventuall drive the desired target out of the house.

10:13 am

Shouldn't a scull be pulled by oarmen? I'm sure we have been forced to accept the existence of words far less credible than "oarman."

10:13 am

unless the target is into "earthiness"

10:13 am

They accept oarsmen instead, when it's in the grid.

10:13 am

oarsmen. They refuse to pull less than one oar.

10:14 am

If you had only one you'd be more of a paddleman.

10:14 am

industrious fellows

You can however have greasy men in this grid. ones that do not shower, I suppose. (Ducks back out of chat!

10:14 am

yeah .. if I want earthiness I can drive to Berkeley...

10:14 am

Or woman, of course.

10:14 am

what about oralmen?

10:14 am

always in big demand ruru

10:15 am

Thank you, Haz. That must have been what triggered the memory. The resentment abates and is replaced by fresh enthusiasm.

10:15 am

I've tried all sorts of other Y chromosome types, but so far none of them has managed to convince Enable.

10:16 am

Oh yeah, I do have the ones that play trains.

10:16 am

No wait, that one didn't work, either.

10:16 am

Nor did the one that wrote up last testaments...

10:16 am

or the one that fibs...

10:17 am

I guess there is atrain connection in the one that's really a sleeping car...

10:17 am

I have 92, I may arbitrarily declare myself a winner

10:17 am

Yay for Esprit!

10:18 am

Congratulations then, you won!

hi

10:18 am

I'd like to thank the members of the academy

TY Haz. Well that is an unusual word indeed.

10:24 am

Zingy, just think of the most arrogant woman you know and pretend to be her as you say your Lady M lines.

10:24 am

Hi Flosey! thanks

10:24 am

ty, what a clue! And I just checked the meaning ... that would never have given me the word.

Days off are very nice LBD.

thx ibd

i mean lbd

10:25 am

You're welcome!

Merk, i just looked at the Definition, its a little fishy, but the word isnt!

10:25 am

work schedule is totally hosed, so having more days off than on...really sux for the checkbook!

i have my SAT's tests this week and they r well boring they r to get u into the high school

10:26 am

10:29 am

10:29 am

thanks Lori and Haz, would never have found that one

10:29 am

Yah, they were stoopid words lb. Like most of the words in this grid....

10:29 am

You're welcome, flosey.

10:30 am

Red, I couldn't do your job. Nursing is something that just way beyond my compassion level...see Lori's profile as to why.

i got a new guide dog 2day

it pays the bills.

10:31 am

zingy, are you interested in doing the word puzzle at all?

10:31 am

wonderful zingy

lbd could you clue the al words?

dunno

10:31 am

It's quite difficult today but there are still some words you can find. Some of us older people are complaining about strange words, but we're cranky.

i am new u c dunno how 2 do it

I have the 5, 12.

10:32 am

guess Lickety celebrated too hard this week-end. no list. *sigh*

10:32 am

Have you ever played boggle, zingy?

i have one word

10:32 am

oh you never mentioned yesterday you were getting one zingy

10:32 am

There's a Lickety's lb....

10:32 am

Now someone tells me there is no lickety!!!

i didn't know!

10:32 am

The aim is to find as many words as you can with the grid <---------. Four letters or more, the letters have to touch, you can go in all sorts of directions.

it was here when i got home from school

thx 4 the help

10:33 am

Oh thank goodness for that *hugs lori and bursts into tears*

10:33 am

***randomly lobs a weather balloon full of water at FM***

10:33 am

Try doing the grid, it's fun and you should find some words that you already know.

10:33 am

weird, i have lickety but it has all of yesterday's words in it...even refreshed it's screwy

Passes tissues to FM...aloe infused.

Oh no, Lbd is on Double secret probation and now is finding out due to no lickety for her.

10:34 am

Hang tough FM it's a good grid. ***Okay, couldn't type that with a straight face...***

i have found 4 so far

brb

10:34 am

*sniff thanks red, actually that reminds me I meant to get some today, hayfever has given me a sore nose, very becoming:(

10:35 am

I would type something about someone's pants being on fire, but I'd give away a word.

Well FM, there is probably someone who fancies that look...

10:35 am

eeew

10:36 am

As I only have as many words as the 11 year old I am diving back in.

10:37 am

are there three re5/12?...can only find 2

10:37 am

Yep, 3 re 5/12's

Hi. y'all.

11:19 am

As your mother would say Uni - today it is a very poopy grid.

la7 = membrane - builds of the la4 (limping) with two cons and a vowel

11:45 am

'it is'

11:45 am

thx elder

11:45 am

al 6/21? anyone?

11:46 am

Haz there must be some way around that :)

11:46 am

al6/21 - squeezes out a vowel from the al7/32 that follows.

11:47 am

Cross, fresh made tea for you.

11:47 am

Well, elder, we could ask for an Act of Parliament but it would probably cost us!

11:47 am

I need all of those last al'

11:47 am

if i had the al/7 trhat would be a piece of cake;)

11:47 am

sdon't have the 7 haz sorry

11:47 am

al7 - a person whose function it is to distribute funds on behalf of a hospital or charity.

11:48 am

Forget that then Haz, money tight this end. We could ask the MP's to contribute.

11:48 am

Think of an old fashioned term for 'charity' and take it from there. al** for the poor.

11:48 am

We could ask, elder, but have you any real hope of us getting any money back from them?

11:49 am

hi al 7 is what et was and either **

3:00 pm

Hello, Ms H

3:00 pm

refuse to watch anymore, after the one blew up

Come down Westford. I should have driven over, as it was a Monday afternoon launch, not so crowded.

Hi BR!

3:01 pm

are you being good to yourself, Ms H?

Cherly, it sort of flies right over my home, so I have little option there...

3:01 pm

ma6?

Getting better each day BR. Helped that it rained a bit. its been so hot.

3:02 pm

good news, friend

And how are you and the Hammock BR?

3:02 pm

ma 6 -- male and almost sated

3:02 pm

ty br for en

3:02 pm

over sixty today, too hot for the hammock

3:03 pm

how are you, cheryl?

3:03 pm

ok, 75 today so not too hot

LOL BR, hope you are well despite the heat wave.

Thats much better CHerly!

3:04 pm

course we were in 90s last week, so different here

3:05 pm

al 7 -- almost the nut and more of

its 94 right now, after therain... not too bad though a nice breeze.

3:05 pm

did the shop get the van right, cherly?

3:06 pm

ma 7 more manly

3:06 pm

nope, got to replace radiator and all

Oh no Cherly. Unpleasant.

3:06 pm

so for now I am without transportation

CHerly, that must be putting a crunch in your job search.

Maleful

3:07 pm

I would consider reporting a company that charge $900+ and do not stand behind their work

Ok so not a word.

3:07 pm

it is that, have to ride a bus if have interview

3:08 pm

believe me I am thinking about it

3:08 pm

upset because I am still making payments on car too

well, I am glad there is a bus available if you do get an interview.

3:09 pm

yes went without a vehicle once before and it came in handy

but never fun to have to wait for the bus...but you can pretend you are being "Green"....so sorry, being without vehicle is very unpleasant.

3:10 pm

also am trying to get a job can work from home while I am in school,

Like Medical transcripting?

I have thought of doing that in my spare time.

3:11 pm

yes, something like that, or callcenter work

that I could not bear Cherly! People get so rude.

3:11 pm

what I was working before the lay off course at a call center

al5,12 Remember the Al*** who knew that was a word in Enable?

3:12 pm

my at home activity entails reminding elected officials they work for the people, do not walk on water and regularly need reality orientation.

3:12 pm

they can be, but I like customer service, you rub off the bad experiences and soak in the ones where you actually helped

Cherly, you should then go to Nursing school. much better money for dealing with the same people, who just happen to feel bad.

3:13 pm

see br, by doing that you can really help people

3:13 pm

red that's a cottonwood tree

Westford, you are kidding me!!!!!

3:13 pm

how's that working for you bab?

I learned something new. that and insect wings....

3:14 pm

cherl I like your positive attitude

3:14 pm

I have health issues so cant

3:14 pm

ty west

3:14 pm

I wouldn't kid you red lol

3:14 pm

does seem a strange name for a mission though

Not that I dont love helping people, but at times I wnt to pu** hair out.

3:16 pm

I was a nurses aide for 8 yrs in nursing home, worked with hospice patients, guess thats where I learned not to sweat the small stuff

People that think Health care is McDonalds particularly irritate me. THey want Pain medicine, but dont want to provide a sample....or want assistance but refuse blood drawn. etc...

3:16 pm

I truly believe many elected officials violate their oaths of office daily and few seem to care. If direct contact with the official does not seem to work, I try to get my views in the paper. Politics is a dastardly process that benefits a select few and rarely results in the good of the people.

many times those people really highlight the really important things in life.

3:17 pm

I agree bab so much for of by and for the people

true bab, sad....

3:18 pm

instant gratification, Ms H

they should all take up running and trian for a long race, like at least a half Marathon.

3:19 pm

me included

Cherly, I think you would be a shoe in for Med transcription as you probably have all that lingo down pat.

BR, who is your painting. I keep thinking of Don Quixote, but....

3:20 pm

might look into it, my asthma has gotten worse every year and working from home would help

3:20 pm

forgot already, sorry

3:21 pm

could work even when cant be around public

3:21 pm

walking has helped my asthma

cherly that is unfortunate, because if you could work with the public, I think we'd hire you in a snap. We have a bad time getting thoughtful and compassionate aides.

BR take up running and come to FLorida in the fall for the Space Coast Marathon.

3:22 pm

I loved being an aide and was sad when had to give it up

3:23 pm

no longer am able to get enough air to jog

I think its one of the hardest jobs in Health care Cherly. The pay is not really equal to the work you do, and there are a lot of people that don't respect them. I was an aide for 4-5 years as I became a Nurse.

3:24 pm

oh well, must accentuate the positive ...

Well, BR you are welcome to come cheer, but its going to probably be Hot hot hot.

You can even have my astronaut medal if i finish.

3:25 pm

wow, redT --- good luck to you ... be good to yourself.

I have 50 words left and am not making any progress. I think I shall GO to FB for a bit and maybe do some cleaning. BBLater!!!!!

3:59 pm

3:59 pm

hello, tor

3:59 pm

hi tor

4:00 pm

I didn't think it was a secret ..

4:00 pm

My mom was a GP, my dad was a trauma surgeon, who specialized in setting up trauma centers for universities. He says he was "uniquely trained" for the job in Vietnam!

4:00 pm

Heyas all youse guys ..

I am glad there was some good that came from Vietnam. I have not found any.

4:03 pm

I actually had lunch with my dad today. You should SEE him at work in the garden, it is so funny. He separates hostas like no one else on earth - you would think he was separating cojoined twins, the precision and thought...

4:03 pm

good afternoon

4:04 pm

i come home. i sit. two seconds later, marty is on lap.

4:04 pm

I am sorry to hear that BR. Take comfort in what my dad was able to find, maybe. All those emergency surgeries there DID prepare him to help those stateside that needed it.

4:04 pm

Hello, harpjane

4:04 pm

Hi, Trif - does your father do contract work - I need my hostas divided !!!

4:04 pm

he's such a lovey little cat.

4:05 pm

LOL, JBV, I could ask! mind you, he takes forever, what with him dividing them with surgical precision. Not too mention it is the wrong time of year....didn't have the heart to tell him

4:05 pm

Oh, marty is a cat hurshy?

4:05 pm

LOL

4:05 pm

of course marty is a cat.

4:06 pm

:)

4:06 pm

4:06 pm

4:06 pm

Heya harp ..

4:06 pm

hi harp!

4:06 pm

see what a mighty hunter I am

4:06 pm

if yours went outside, might be a cool cat

4:07 pm

marty is very fierce and ferocious, but he mostly hunts fake mice.

4:07 pm

A cat's got to know his limitations ..

4:08 pm

5:08 pm

nevermind. found it.

5:08 pm

Clue?

5:08 pm

how many points have u got

5:10 pm

if you did something very masculine, it could be described as ma6/33

5:10 pm

ma6 = a guy, not empty

5:11 pm

i have 1615 so far hixie

5:12 pm

That's a made up word I swear ..

5:13 pm

it is not a made up word, it's just that since feminism, it's not really allowed anymore to say that, for instance, owning up to what you did wrong, or being brave, or whatever, is ma6.

5:13 pm

it's gone out of fashion.

5:13 pm

it's un-PC.

5:13 pm

"How much bs do you have?" "I have a ma6/33."

5:13 pm

lol!

5:14 pm

if you read older books, you'll definitely hear adults telling boys that they did things ma6ly as an encouragement.

tor, I like that, very funny.

5:17 pm

I guess I'm just not well-read enough ..

I need to get some good beach reading. SO far my choices are disappointingly bad.

wilmer

oops.

5:19 pm

Just started "The Lost City of Z" and it's GOOD

5:19 pm

Just finished "The Help" and it was very good too

5:19 pm

very very very different books! LOL

5:19 pm

how many beaches can you read in a day?

Will note down. I just read "The Last Apostle" and it was justrather bad.

Only one Bab rab.

5:21 pm

"Etta" was really good too, red -- fiction based on the story of the woman featured in Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid

Well something unfortunate just happened. My pan with lasagne just seemingly broke. So, now I need to go look at the damage, how odd. But it was on a hot surface, until a few min ago oops

5:29 pm

that doesn't sound good red

5:29 pm

oh no!

5:35 pm

the book is online here: http://virtualschool.edu/mon/Quality/P irsigZen/

West, I just got back from picking up several hundred little pieces of glass from the floor. As the mess cools, I will get to the stove, and no Its horrible. but, could be a lot worse...No one or thing got hurt except the glass pan.

5:52 pm

I'm so sorry red but you're right no shards of glass in your tummy

and I think I will not eat any more of that lasagne as it now as glass shards in it. :(

I had this happen once with Chili too in a similar bowl. One would think I'd learn. :(

5:54 pm

sounds like thermal shock

5:54 pm

cotton balls are very good for getting up the little pieces of glass you can't see

I left a burner on, which I was unaware of, and then set the pan on top of it. I noted it and turned it off but nt soon enough.

Ooooh, Will get the cotton, should it be moist?

5:55 pm

just a bit

Ok, I will try that I was using a wettish cloth kitchen towel...it sort of worked. Now I am going to be nerdy and watch star trak.

trek...

5:57 pm

If I made dinner and you were closer I'd invite you over

Well, the good news is that I had already eaten a piece when it exploded soI am not hungry, jsut sort of surprised at the mess...

5:58 pm

that's one good thing

ok dog is now restless, will remove him for a moment.

7:08 pm

ty red

7:08 pm

Is the NA 8 built off the na 5?

na 8 is bizarre. Na + a word that is not down but **, the beggining of a fibber and a consonant.

It refers to a type of shell fish, ironically as it isnt a fish at all...

7:10 pm

huh! is it possible to have fireworks without fireworks? this is strange

7:10 pm

Good grief! TY Red! On that note...to the tub!

7:10 pm

Yeah Dorens!

7:10 pm

WHooo Hooo Pam!!!!!!!

I still have 13 left.

7:11 pm

you should have all just let us think yuo were brilliant - we would have believed you LOL

7:12 pm

i think the only to find that na word is by a cclue. yay PAM!

7:12 pm

Those were for Dor. I will NEVER finish this.

and a lasagne and shattered pan to clean up.

7:12 pm

Oh, shattered? So sorry!

7:12 pm

hey red i dropped the jar of parmesan cheese tonight all over the floor - perhaps we should get together

its ok no one died, its just messy and I am annoyed.

7:13 pm

oh, thankks pam... it was weird here... first it said that my last word was word 1 and i had 170 left, then it switched over to all greys, but no fw. who needs fws? just need completion!

7:13 pm

7:13 pm

shattered trumps messy any time!

7:13 pm

Well, congrats on completion!

I liek FW.

7:14 pm

7:15 pm

hey pam were you anywhere near the T accident the other day?

Dorens you are the lady who finished on a date once I know finishing is important to yoU!

8:10 pm

i was in libby last weekend and it was almost surreal, i was there for a bike ride and we were all so happy....

8:11 pm

waterboards jm again for bringing that up

8:11 pm

now that i know the ending, i'm trying to remember about the beginning. she said two things to him in his office. the second was "you're a good doctor" - what was the first?

8:11 pm

FIRST Memo NEVER SHOULD HAVE BEEN WRITTEN...

8:11 pm

the spanish missions which were the basis of the original settlement

8:11 pm

According to CNN today, there are more Abu Ghraib pics

8:11 pm

are we talking about missions or missionary positions?

8:11 pm

*sputtering*

8:11 pm

Now I can't remember, hursh....

8:12 pm

I am widow guess I wil have to stick with missions

8:12 pm

Oh, thanks re: missions, jmc

8:12 pm

it's driving me nuts, trying to piece together the reality of what happened.

hursh i was quite lost at the end

8:12 pm

the al's are killing me

8:12 pm

*remembering missionary position and others fondly*

8:12 pm

well, ok, the thing is, they never slept together, she never came and helped him get off vicodin, he was hallucinating all of that

8:12 pm

there are a lot of al's to kill you with, harp

8:13 pm

I know, hursh, because he was hallucinating, but was he participating in the split brain guy's care?

8:13 pm

Right, and was he hallucinating his chats with Wilson?

8:13 pm

what are you talking about?

8:13 pm

yes i think everything that happened THIS episode actually happened.

8:13 pm

what vicodin?

8:13 pm

other than the lipstick actually being oxycodone.

8:13 pm

oohh House nm

8:13 pm

i think they're talking about a tv show, ru

8:13 pm

House, ruru and jmc

8:14 pm

Is Rush Limbaugh on the show?

8:14 pm

I forgot to watch it tonight

8:14 pm

guest pill popping cameo?

8:14 pm

No, lead is a pill popper, ruru!

8:14 pm

(maybe Keith RIchards?)

8:14 pm

and so, i'm just trying to reconstruct what cuddy must have been thinking when he was talking to her, and he was thinking they'd done it...

8:14 pm

I am sure it will be on again soon, jmc

8:14 pm

al7? either one?

8:15 pm

et + either **

8:15 pm

I'll go to hulu

8:15 pm

add either/** to the end of et dude

8:15 pm

does hulu put it up earlier? on fox.com you have to wait 8 days.

8:15 pm

I always forget about hulu

8:15 pm

et ruru?

8:15 pm

the other al 7 is hard to clue

8:16 pm

but, ok, the other thing is, that was the season finale, right?? we have to wait until the fall to see what happens to him???

8:16 pm

almost a more of a nut

8:16 pm

al + ***day, tuesday....+ one who does ending

8:16 pm

et phone home

8:16 pm

no it takes hulu 8 days

8:16 pm

nice clue lB

8:16 pm

lol I was looking for the t in the grid

8:17 pm

that's typical hursh

8:17 pm

off to the grocery store.

8:17 pm

what's for dindin, ru?

8:17 pm

for haddock, ruru?

8:17 pm

no, everyone being fired is one thing, house checking into a psych hospital is quite another!!

8:18 pm

Indeed, hursh! And, we have to wait a while!

8:18 pm

poo you spoiled the ending for me hursh!

8:18 pm

especially coming on top of the disappointment of finding out it was all not true!

8:18 pm

(hadn't i already?)

8:18 pm

haddock stuffe bell pepper

8:19 pm

I hadn't read it before -- no worry though

8:19 pm

stuffed

8:19 pm

the last two al6? and the 5 befroe them?

8:19 pm

you know, i was too young to watch dallas, but it really seems to me that the JR shooting thing has got nothing on this.

8:19 pm

haddock shakes

8:19 pm

al+ hawaiian dance the h***

8:19 pm

I recomend hamburger rather than haddock for stuffed peppers

8:19 pm

and haddock ice cream

8:20 pm

are you on iron chef (original japanese version)???

8:20 pm

add another vowel to the end of that one, then change the last letter to a consonant for the last 6

8:20 pm

al + h*** hoop; extend the 5 with different letters for the sixes

8:20 pm

yes

8:20 pm

it's haddock night

8:20 pm

this is stressing me out. am i going to be stressed out for months?

8:21 pm

oo oo when i it going to be aired ruru I wi4 have to watch

8:21 pm

a tv show is stressing you out?

8:21 pm

no you wi4 find something else to think about hursh

8:21 pm

estremely!

8:21 pm

so, so glad I do not watch television

8:21 pm

am4.5 to that, br

8:21 pm

What happens when you watch CNN hursh?

8:22 pm

I like tv but don't get emotionally involved

8:22 pm

I watch less than 3 hours of TV per week

8:22 pm

if something happens in the real world, you can find out the next day if there are new developments. you're not stuck in one moment for months.

8:23 pm

you think this is bad, you should have seen me whilst reading the harry potter books...

8:23 pm

I think we need to see it again, hursh!!!!

8:23 pm

What do you watch when you watch, RURU?

8:23 pm

actually in the real world you sometimes never now

8:23 pm

sometimes i would have to stop reading for a few minutes and just let my brain stew

8:23 pm

John Stewart and CNN

8:23 pm

hey all - is there somewhere to see the answers from yesterday? I never did get the big words, and thought I might look them up....

8:23 pm

*know

8:24 pm

that's true, it is frustrating when you can't find out what happened in some news that you were particularly struck by

8:24 pm

8:26 pm

8:34 pm

8:54 pm

8:54 pm

8:54 pm

troll dolls were much later

8:55 pm

i had barbies and cabbage patch kids...

8:55 pm

Troll dolls were Inaction Figures

8:55 pm

cabbage patch kids are even later

8:56 pm

9:29 pm

9:30 pm

hey lbd -- I thought it looked a bit quiet

9:30 pm

* sorry * lurking to finish...

9:31 pm

makes it hard to lurk for clues when no one is talking

9:31 pm

true - so true

9:31 pm

so, Pini, how long have you been the chief executive of the fast growing conglomerate?

9:32 pm

3.5 years

9:32 pm

you have reason to be proud. well done

9:33 pm

why thank you ;)

9:34 pm

...what do you do out there in the Dakota's?

9:37 pm

I walk my pet rock

9:38 pm

strenuous work then, eh?

9:38 pm

depends on which pet I am walking

9:39 pm

you have more than one pet rock?

9:39 pm

I used to be a lawyer and now am an advocate for a couple of causes I believe in

9:40 pm

...I used to be a legal assistant...was always pretty darned interesting. ;)

9:41 pm

the word justice in our legal system is too often a misnomer

9:41 pm

agreed

9:42 pm

As an outside observer, I concur -- I think the fact that it is referred to as the LEGAL system, instead of the JUSTICE system is a dead giveaway

9:44 pm

I used to think that, with the number of people in a courtroom, some balance might actually show itself...I was wrong...

9:45 pm

honor and integrity have given way to pragmatism and expediency

9:46 pm

so very true, BR...

9:46 pm

first al6/21?

9:46 pm

a very troubling time

9:46 pm

add a vowel

9:46 pm

troubling and sad

9:47 pm

for the second, add a consonant

9:47 pm

sorry, BR...the al before the last 7

9:48 pm

al*s for the poor and in like man^^^

9:49 pm

oooh, thank you! :)

9:49 pm

add a vowel between the middle consonants for the 7

9:51 pm

On the legal front, I'm helping a friend do research on how to appeal his divorce settlement. When all was said and done, he ended up writing the State Bar to file a formal complaint against her to which she replied she was 100% at fault. At least she admitted it and will no longer be practicing. (no offense to all of the honorable attorneys out there).

9:51 pm

her = his attorney

9:52 pm

wtg, Pini

9:53 pm

I'm not doing much except helping him go thru the lawbooks - he has no idea and I have some and can at least point him in some direction...

9:53 pm

I am fully aware of the fact that I am no attorney, nor do I purport to be; but well it doesn't take much to read and understand how to follow citations, etc., for more info.

9:54 pm

there is a time limit for filing the appeal. he must be made aware of it

9:55 pm

He recently received the extension (thankfully).

9:57 pm

The sad thing is that, while all of the attorney stuff is before the Bar, the settlement still stands, so he can't afford an attorney until he's got something to "review"; however, he is working with the bar to possibly get an attorney pro bono.

9:58 pm

stuck on the le 5-6 combo

9:58 pm

le + big boy

9:59 pm

thanks

9:59 pm

Whew, turned around and here you all are! Hi Woulfie, Pini, sammysmom, Hi again BR

9:59 pm

i was sure i tried that

9:59 pm

well, there are a lot of issues ... one is her malpractice insurance

9:59 pm

So, BR, am I helping or hindering with the research?

10:00 pm

I think you need to be very careful

10:00 pm

as I do

10:00 pm

pu7?

10:01 pm

I understand that...I'm not writing anything just reading and asking questions to make sure he talks with and asks "good" questions of the counsel he ultimately gets.

10:01 pm

and now it's time for me to say good night. Sweet dreams, and see you all tomorrow.
