good morning all
wow, ks killed.
good morning Sprite, hug
*hugs flosey* Good evening to you! Did you have a nice day today?
yes thanks Sprite, a nice quiet day
lovely. Well deserved rest after intensive bridging :D
the bridge wasn't too intense, played with a very pleasant gentleman who just enjoys the game, not necessarily out to win master points
oh that is great. I am not at all fond of playing, as they say here, with the knife on the table. Relaxed and for fun is more my style
I do love the game, even play online here, have one friend I've been playing with probably close to 10 years
I love to play mahyong, but there aren't a lot of people who even know the real game. One of my friends does, but she plays purely to win, so you can never build up a good game.
he's on the East Coast, US, we've never met in person
my grandmother use to pay that one, a cousin and I liked to play with the pieces
wow, awesome. I often think I should learn to play bridge decently. It seems such a widespread thing to do, you can probably find players anywhere.
not finding un words. hmmm
hi mkg
yes and online they do indicate the level they play

hi Anna!
hi sprite! how are you tonite?
I am fine. Will go camping for two days, with my daughter and husband. Just a few days away together.
and you, Anna? How are you and how was your day?
sounds like a nice relaxing time, Sprite
i'm okay thanks. My day was okay, should be going to be soon.
bed that is
it should be, flosey. Rob and Caya go canoeing and I will set up the tent and do nothing for the rest of the days :)
which means, painting rocks and reading
that sounds so fun...
yeah :) The good life.
nice to see Dad and Daughter enjoying time together
that too. They are close, thank God.

hi blah ty
morning fan, yw
Just curious (I'm an old babbler, but haven't been aroun lately)...where is everyone playing from?
Margaret River West Australia
nc us
I'm in Cedar Rapids Iowa
It's like sauna outside here today
acts
OOOPS!
stormy and cold and windy and rainy , mid winter here
Forgot to switch windows!
we all do it kizah:)
At least it was an easy/obvious one
hi kizah! I'm in Dallas TX, also a sauna :)
Here in Iowa, we have really good beef (steaks, etc), but I have a new friend from Dallas who said that our beef is nothing compared to what he's used to
I'm thinking a trip to Dallas may be in order
here in Nashville forecast is for heat index above 100 this week AND humidity at 6:00 this morning was 87 percent -- aaaccckk!!
Well, I think we have the usual, e.g you can buy grass-fed or Wagyu if you want to pay for it. Not sure how local it is tho
That's similar to here too. A very inside day
hork
hoint
oint
Damn
Sorry...I'm so distracted today
wrong box kizah :D
I think I'll drop the chat for a while. Sorry guys.
nope kizah that d word isn't in the grid either
120 left at the moment very slow going for me... will be back....
woohoo...only 203 to go!!! oh, and gm all
98 here today, heat index of 106. Also an inside day.
gm mool! congrats on your progress :P
:D
good morning everyone
hey nan
morning
morning nan
except its nearing midnite
details :)
sorry sandy --- never sure how many hours ahead you are -- Australia has 3 time zones?
depends
in summer it gets more complicated
But yes, three time zones, but not consistent application of daylight savings
currently 84 degrees, 98% humidity and heat index of 101. expected high of 90 degrees which will probably put us at heat index of 110-115. MS Gulf Coast.
ugh
98 % humidity would wilt me
sorry , as far as I know , yes we have three time zones and daylight savings doesnt come into that but confuses the issues even more
ruru, yup. Just walking outside is like trying to breathe through a wet towel.
I was reading about something on the internet so I was distracted ,
100 t go
I can't stand high humidity
84
my one excursion to Miami told me I couldn't take it
this is going to be a tough grid
I hate the heat. High humidity is to be found in the north of our state and it is horrible. Sooo hot
the other odd thing about australia's time zones, is that South Australia and Northern Territory are offset by 30 minutes from the Eastern Time Zone
How many zones in the States
two
4 on the mainland, then there's alaska/hawaii
we were in china a week before the monsoons hit --- that's humidity! They must dance in the streets when the rains come!
three really
china has one time zone
two other than mine
mid-states and east coast
or as we call it the wrong coast
I have no idea how they work all this out.
East, Central, Mountain and Pacific time zones
for the US
we have 4 + newfoundland time which is 1/2 hour ahead of everyone else
Some of the boundaries are interesting though....a handful of states have two time zones, like Indiana
We may go to Atlantic time in Maine if a few other New England states decide to do so....not sure I would like that....
I think I agree with you on the grid nan
hi all
79 words and I just made nbt
stats for the 8 & 9 please
the 9 would be someone who profiles people by their ethnicity...
oh, you wanted stats, sorry
seems like an easy grid to me today the last few have been tougher
not enough Es...
yesterday was pretty easy, except for the last 10 or so
the one before was slow on the last 50
I found yesterday's one of the easiest ever and I dont find many easy at all
it was only easy once i listed... ;o)
Have to agree pen, I definitely listed
Well I guess ease is a subjective thing :)
don't see anything for the 8=9 ... no b for biggot nor t for trump
think KKK....and add a vowel in there...
it starts with a K?
the f's are giving me trouble here
no Ku Klux Klan...
i dont get it. what does the 8 & 9 start with
i don't know about a combo...just have ra 9......
oh -- it's not an 8-9 combo and begins with ra --- had the ra 6, but have never seen that particular derivative before
me either...
two ra 8 s
i only have ra 9...
one ra 9
got the 9, ty
cool...
don't see any ra 8's though
ah - scott joplin pluralized
ty cyber
oh...i have that one....only 8 i have, lol....

judi will bang out this grid in ten minutes

then she'll do tomorrow's grid, without even knowing the tiles
That's the sound you hear. Me banging away.
that's a sound I'd like to hear too :D
I've never seen anyone actually use a hammer on a grid before
final 50...should be about 8 hours of work
i keep seeing eclair....i think i am hungry... :o|
ooh, I do love a nice fresh eclair
Now I want an eclair....carried over from an episode of Great British Baking Show I watched yesterday....
I want a day without 1001 things to do
Nah. Think how bored you be, Nan.
maybe you'd be okay with 987 things to do
a whole day, with no responsibilities, not having to clean or cook - to spend just however I want? I think I could handle that!
Sounds like Nan wants to run away from home.
40 to go...
yes! --- want to come along?
semilag - when you're stuck in traffic behind an 18 wheeler
Definitely!
ah, found another 8...in
Hi!. if nan wants to run away from home; I'll do it too! (I was going to say I'd join her; but when I want to run away; I'd want to do it alone for peace & quiet)
semilag (when your jet stops midway to your destination)

I don't ever try to finish, I just meander. The other day I left a 5o word grid with one left, which I guess is a victory against ocd
yes!....wish i could do that sometimes...
really, I had one left and it was a 4 letter and I just ditched it.
i couldn't do it...
But you got fireworks and I didn't
today I have 83 left and am melting onto my computer in the heat
true...only time i quit on a grid is when i start one too late or when i am out of town...
My icon by the way is my version of "drain the swamp."
67 here, so heat is not an excuse for me...
Do you still do rankings?
i don't really look at them....
Well that's healthy. I seem to recall that the rankings are really concerning for some.
i do list when i get stumped...
i don't want to look....;o)
I have been too lazy to do that. If I can meander through the day it's fine. I hate the tiny grids.
i do, too....
This got me away from the web boggle quickies, which were too addicting
ah....i do play at wordsplay....that used to be called web boggle.....
that's the one.
do you use the same name there?
un 7/44?
not a negative word but brings it all together
