Good luck Judi

1:33 pm

Hi all. Anyone got a clue for the se 8,50 please?

1:33 pm

*Hands Judi of Arc her sword and shield*

hi all, glad to see a large (relatively) grid today!!

1:37 pm

se8...s + the King r****s over his people + Jun*** High

1:37 pm

SE + ***ition + sen*** (elder one) -- ludicrous word!

1:37 pm

What the King does sounds like wet precipitation

1:38 pm

hi gwen and hydra :) back for the rest of the fishies, i hope :)

1:38 pm

that was for the 8,50

thanks, y'all, got the se8

1:41 pm

Hello...dense one here...can't figure out the se 8...

1:42 pm

The 2nd part of my clue is "ignition"

s + the number after seven is ***ht + i'm a jun***, not a sen***

1:43 pm

Got it, thanks!

1:43 pm

I would also like to know in what language that word is supposed to exist

1:43 pm

Middle English, Anglo-French

1:44 pm

Ya know, those two everyday languages.

1:44 pm

take your pick...

it's an old spelling of an old word meaning a sir or a lord

1:45 pm

In which language???

it's old english, (or middle english, i guess)

1:46 pm

mmm-hhmmm

in the middle ages the english borrowed a lot of french words. they were allies with france and chared kings with france, sort of

1:47 pm

That may very well be so, but including that word in today's puzzle makes one scratch one's head.

1:47 pm

Not to be vulgar, but there a few male organs (from the gr 5/14 area) in the grid.

1:48 pm

It was duly nopticed, Jellen

1:48 pm

and the sex parties to make use of them ;)

(in the 1400s, i looked it up in the wiki, it's under Dual Monarchy)

1:49 pm

love the blending of languages to make a word.so it is not really french,english or american:))))

1:49 pm

Oh, my! Didn't have that one.

yeah the dictionary inside this game is from the middle age, too LOL

1:49 pm

Right, Gwen!

if you learn the terminology of heraldry you will learn a lot of medieval french words that are now in english dictionaries

1:52 pm

sinister....

fesse

1:53 pm

2:01 pm

Reading back in chat. LOL at BDG's sci-fi reference.

2:01 pm

and the 8/60 for it lol

2:01 pm

I worked this morning, just finished all charts on the computer, and now get to unwind here.

2:01 pm

hi scrabs :)

2:01 pm

got that subaru broken in yet scwabby?

2:01 pm

Hi scrabbler

bowing to you, my dweebs

2:02 pm

Well, the Hi9 is a new one on me.

2:02 pm

I think I know how to use everything now. I set my favorite radio stations, including several Toronto ones, used cruise control, added petrol today...getting 30 mpg!

2:03 pm

a well-earned break scrabs

2:03 pm

<---proud nerd, dork, geek and dweeb

2:03 pm

lol, aren't most of us?

2:03 pm

* Proudly flies geek flag *

2:03 pm

i am going to love cruise control in my new my.my sciatica(sp) is an agony after just and hour on the road

2:03 pm

I should think all Babblers are!

2:04 pm

my new ride*

2:04 pm

Yikes, Crossy. I have had 4 episodes of sciatica in my life. Nerve pain is brutal!

2:05 pm

<hoists my freak flag in support of judi>

2:05 pm

the pulling up the back of the leg and around the buttocks and the feet going numb and the random nerve pain is crazy

2:05 pm

I have to get my Yakima kayak rack attached to the siderails. Next week I go to the Adirondack Mtns.

2:06 pm

yaaa,break it in with kayak hauling

2:06 pm

I have to add -ing to many words.

(jealous of subaru that gets 30, my mom's gets only 20)

2:07 pm

my new jeep will only get 20...sniff:((

2:08 pm

I just got a 2013 Crosstrek--smaller than a Forester. My 2005 Forester averaged 25 mpg. Highway fuel efficiency of 33 mpg convinced me to get the Crosstrek rather than a gently used Forester.

2:08 pm

hoping for delivery first week august;)))))

2:08 pm

Special order--certain features?

2:09 pm

no,just they are tooling up for 2014,s and what is out there is all there is,and since they always sell out it is a mad scramble to get what you want

2:09 pm

So you are getting a 2013?

2:10 pm

yup.the 2013 has a 3500 dollar rebate and the base sticker price is 7 k less,that is why i put my order in a month before the money

2:11 pm

Today's best experience in the office. 4 siblings, now in their 3rd foster home in the last year will be adopted by this family! I hugged the woman and teared up. I have seen the kids for the last 3-4 yrs.

2:11 pm

Good plan, Crossy.

2:11 pm

if i had waited another 2 months i would of had to order a 2014..at 10k more

2:12 pm

the 2012 was a total sell out and the 2013 will be in short order:))

great news about the adoption, scrabs!

2:12 pm

Crosstreks are in short supply too--very popular since debuting in 2012.

2:13 pm

they are indeed scrabby and yaaa on that adoption!!

2:13 pm

super scrabs! four kids is a lot to take on! bless her!

2:13 pm

it is nice when they can keep the kids together

2:14 pm

Gwen, I want to adopt so many kids, place them in my fantasy orphanage, and give them love, cleanliness, clothes, food and proper discipline. When I see neglected or abused kids get adopted I am just SO happy. Siblings are always kept together.

2:14 pm

Yes, she has no kids of her own but is taking these 4 and I am humbled.

2:15 pm

that was not always the case,scrabby

2:15 pm

Yes, I know, but it is the rule here at least.

2:15 pm

i have known several families where the sibling were split amongst foster homes

probably different laws or rules in different locations, regarding splitting up siblings

2:16 pm

good thing the rules have changed:)

2:16 pm

And these are Native American kids being adopted by Native parents.

2:17 pm

Fireworks!

2:17 pm

even better:)))))

2:17 pm

Cute kids, very sweet.

I count a pedicure as top shelf enjoyment.

2:19 pm

2:29 pm

I see. Too bad.

2:30 pm

must be nice to be lofty enough to not only decide which adults in love may or may not marry but also base this on one of only 2400 religions practiced on this planet

2:30 pm

slightly over 2400 active religions actually

2:31 pm

There is a chipmunk 3 feet away from my feet, eating a piece of bread I tossed out.

i love it (in a sarcastic way) when the anti-equality crowd says marriage has always been between one man and one women. they know squat about history

2:31 pm

loves chippies!

2:31 pm

cool.will give him the trotts though,a bit of fruit or some seeds are better;))

2:32 pm

There are tons of sunflower seeds beneath all of the birdfeeders.

2:32 pm

lol,he loves junk food like many of us:))

2:32 pm

I had 6 chippies out here at the same time the other day. I adore them.

ooh, just found a 9

2:33 pm

what is neat is when you get them coming up into your hand for seed

2:33 pm

Clue, please?

2:33 pm

when you look at the world from the reverse side of a telescope, you see only a fraction of what there is to see....it's unfortunate

chipmunks are cute!!!!

2:33 pm

and much easier to tame than squizzlers.... braver!

2:34 pm

lol@ squizzlers

2:34 pm

They are so sweet to watch. They make me smile. I was near tears last week when a cat caught a chippie and ran off with it in its mouth. :-(

gr8, a word meaning a way to prepare potatoes and cheese (i thing), plus a french cooking type ending, plural

oope, i meant gr9. well, there's an 8 there also

2:34 pm

naughty kitty!!!!!

2:35 pm

I have gr6 and 7. Must look for the 9.

2:35 pm

Got gr9! TY.

(chipmunks are squirrels, technically . . . )

same ending as an afternoon movie or show . . .

2:35 pm

the ma 7 and 8 words are similar... ;o)

2:35 pm

our cats are good kitties

2:36 pm

We have red and grey squirrels here and the red ones are adorable--much smaller than grey ones.

2:37 pm

mine were good too, but in old streetsville, i had to teach them that chippies were not big mice (which they always caught, but never killed) i was afraid chippies might be scared to death...

2:38 pm

ours are indoor cats.i do not wish to scrape them off the road or have them assaulting wildlife on other peoples properties

2:38 pm

scrabs - do you have any flying sqizzlers there? we have some in ridgeway here - they only live in some very small pockets i understand

2:38 pm

Well, I found 150 and that is enough.

2:38 pm

Not 150 flying squirrels, hahah

2:39 pm

i was going to say!! 150 is a lot of chippies!

you remind me of a sick joke, now trying hard not to type it . . .

2:39 pm

:D

2:39 pm

oh, go on gwen....

2:39 pm

My neighbors have seen flying squirrels behind their home. They are on the other side of the street and have a ravine in their backyard. My squirrels jump from one tree to the next but I they don't have the webbed bodies.

2:40 pm

hopefully, a few of them will decide to re-locate to "the sunny side of the street" :)

2:40 pm

Time to work on bills. :-(

(sick joke commencing) so, a guy goes up to an old lady's house, knocks on the door, when she come out, he says, i'm real sorry, ma'am, i think i just run over your cat . . .

... but she says, now, wait a minute, before you get all upset, let's make sure it was may cat. can you describe it? and he says, well, it was flat and it had a tire track on it . . .

2:41 pm

<waiting with bated breath for punchline>

(no, that's not the punchline) . . . and she says, no can you describe what it looked like before you hit it? and he says . . .

2:42 pm

ROFL LMAO !!!! luv it gwen :)

2:43 pm

.....

. . . (hands in air, like claws) MRRRRAAAOUUUR!

2:43 pm

Poor kitty.

2:43 pm

sorry,gewn,kind of fell flat:/

2:43 pm

:-O

it's a visual joke, i guess . . .

2:44 pm

did you spell tha tcata sound right????

yes, a cat screaming, the paws up in a defensive position, and eyes as side as possible . . .

*wide*

2:45 pm

Enjoy the day, folks. I shall return tomorrow.

3:00 pm

3:00 pm

think of the lawn game with mallets, balls, and wickets....drop the first letter....and gerund ending

3:00 pm

<----likes dunkin donuts...but likes country style most of all... they still make theirs in store - not shipped in frozen to be thawed and decorated...i'd say more, but i feel a rant coming on ;)

no doughnut... I'm trying to cut back...LOL ( but my choice would be an walnut crunch ! )

3:00 pm

it is a coffe shop my american friends

3:01 pm

ah, ty crossy

3:01 pm

country style is best.not that strong burnt taste

slang term for a Tim Horton's coffee.

3:01 pm

3:02 pm

i am not sure if they par-bake like timmies or not,kate

3:03 pm

par-baking was the worst thing they ever thought of

3:03 pm

I am making ice cream bread. will let you know how it turns out. only 2 ingredients, ice cream and self rising flour

3:03 pm

what the heck is par baking

3:03 pm

NO crossy - right form scratch still... have you noticed the tims are a lot "heavier" now? not to mention half the size they used to be...

Up until a few years ago they were totally cooked in the shop.... now they do bring them in par-baked I think.

3:03 pm

they par-bake it all in some big warehouse in the city,then ship them off to all the timmies then finish them on site

3:03 pm

oh, ok

half baked.... like some of us ;-)

3:04 pm

I just read about icecream bread peri. Curious when you finish...

3:04 pm

ice cream bread yummersa!

3:04 pm

:)

3:04 pm

did you ever have it, kate?

3:04 pm

I am using chocolate ice cream :)

3:04 pm

timmies baked good are a pale thing compared to what they used to be

3:04 pm

Dunkin doesn't cook doughnuts on site anymore either....no more "Time to make the donuts" ads....

3:04 pm

if it turns out ok. I will add a choclit chips next time.

3:04 pm

no, sounds delish though, waiting for report....

3:04 pm

Did someone say chocolate??

sounds interesting , peri :-)

3:05 pm

chocolate icecream... yum, my fave

3:05 pm

I saw the recipe on FB. it should be ready in about 25 minutes

hi Jellen :-)

3:05 pm

Don't buy it often as I would eat the entire carton

3:05 pm

3:05 pm

3:06 pm

3:06 pm

He's my new beau, peri!

3:06 pm

thought so :)

3:07 pm

ohh! rumbling in the distance.hope we get a good thunder storm,the louder the better:))

3:07 pm

3:32 pm

it drizzled earlier today

3:33 pm

i can always get the taste reasults tomorrw...

3:33 pm

do you have a computer at home?

3:34 pm

fireflies :) last word was the smallest fishie of all... tr 4/4!!!!

3:34 pm

have to send you plans to make a 'cantenna" ,kate.boost those local free wifi signals

3:34 pm

no peri, it was a temporary loaner, i'm back at the internet cafe.

3:35 pm

yay for tk

3:35 pm

you may have to wait til tomorrow then

3:36 pm

the neighboour upstairs has wifi, so i was able to get a ride on theirs.. if i get a computer full-time, i will just pay them a portion of their bill... the signal is "excellent" :)

3:36 pm

that is fair,pay half and piggy-back

3:36 pm

mcdonald's has wifi but not quite near enough, it doesn't show up on the list of networks to choose from.

3:37 pm

thats when the cantenna comes in;))

3:37 pm

well, probably only 1/3 as her son is in the apt. above her and probably also piggy backs...

3:38 pm

http://www.cantenna.com/ you can also make this from a old proingles container

3:38 pm

the signal at mickey d's is so weak, i couldn't get a decent signal 15 from the door, sitting outside on the table there...

3:38 pm

pringles

3:38 pm

:((

oh you mean like buster bars and taking the cap off the cable to get your neighbor's service?

3:39 pm

does anyone need stats/ hints - i have about 20 minutes to clue. i will look into it one of these days crossy. i always seem to be pressed for time on-line

3:39 pm

hope she has a big data pack for three of you

3:39 pm

no,TO,not like that

3:40 pm

i don't watch movies etc. crossy. just babble and a bit of e-mail clean-up

3:40 pm

then it will be fine:)

oh, it is a booster to use free wifi that the state prorivde?

3:41 pm

err,no,it is a booster to gather signal from businesses that already provide it free of charge

they provide it free of charge for the public, like mc donalds and dunkin donuts and starbucks?

3:41 pm

kate would use it outside of her McDonalds for example

3:42 pm

in some cities they do

3:42 pm

and mcdonalds and starbucks,hotels

3:42 pm

They do here TO

oic

3:43 pm

anywhere you already have a free signal but it is weak

i know. only source of news during hurrcane sandy

3:43 pm

the ice cream bread turned out ok. not sure I would make it again.

3:44 pm

it tastes like chocolate bread

3:44 pm

very easy to make

molly, the festival was really great but i fear it is the first and last, the promoter took a bath

3:44 pm

Our Starbucks and McDonalds free wifi signal is plenty strong. No booster needed.

3:44 pm

Those things are always a gamble, TO. Especially in the summertime.

oh, but molly, i am now in love with mem shannon. and paul cebar. :)

3:45 pm

♥♥♥

3:51 pm

Mem Shannon is great

3:52 pm

the local mcdonald's, pizza pizza, and texarcana all have free wifi, but they are a full block away - tto far. it is a moot point anyway, as long as i can use my neighbour's signal.

3:52 pm

hi TO and torgon :)

3:54 pm

what type of music do they play/sing Owl?

3:54 pm

I'm amazed that anyone still has an unprotected wifi signal.

3:54 pm

11:24 pm

I got the 'unable to handle a job' - missing something else
