Well, we are coming up on another celebration day that we can't celebrate together as families. This is getting old.
ty Bea!
Yes, but it is getting closer. NC will open up a little bit on Friday.
What is opening Bea?
It eliminates the distinction between non essessential and essential businesses.
Stores may reopen but must follow cleaning and social distancing guidelines and only at 50% capacity. Churches services are allowed with social distancing.

People are starting to get grubby looking. They are either going without hair care, or doing it themselves. Both are not good options.
Molly clued it at 7:54.
I paid way too much for Chipotle delivery last night. But it was very good.
that's the de word
No, the other one at 7:54
a few days ago we got tacos from Taco Bell:)
We don't do Taco Bell. I don't care for their food.
I love tacos!
Oh I like Tacos, just not from Taco Bell. They are like the McDonald's of Mexican food.
Of course, I ccoked our Cinco de Mayo food. We had chicken fajitas, fried tacos with ground pork and potatoes, and cilatro rice. All the trimmings, of course.
lol
We have a few stroes of the chain Taco Tico still left in KS. I love their tacos.
Ooo, I love fried tacos. It has to be just the right weather to make them though, so I can open the windows. Otherwise, it smells like fried food for days.
we had fajitas last night
hi hokie
howdy
Hello, all.
hi judi
this one doesn't appear to be as easy as yesterday
I thought it was an easier gird.
maybe I'm just not awake enough then
hokie i am not awake yet..for me it started out okay but has declined somewhat since
moving on from the top row...
i need 3 from that e
same, and not seeing the v, but the g's are going well
got the v, I am asleep
va 4/7
so am i lol
Va/4 is a tax here in the UK
Here, we just store wine in them : D
Molly or that :)
i don't like wine
Did someone say wine?
i have eg 6 that is a pl i need a clue for the other one pls?
woot! stumbled onto the 9!
* rolls va4 into room * filler up.
congrats hokie
judi do any of them have coffee in them?
Judi I will take some :)
*Fills large containers for the wino
the other is also a pl MLFAN but a Latin pl
* taps in spigot * Queue up kids. 6 feet apart. No crowding.
Put it in the PB Judi
(nerd voice) technically the eg6 I have is not a pl but a verb form
I was referring to the one that ends in a less common pl form
and that basically means poop.
easier to say it ends in a vowel
found it, so that's basically the verb form turning into a noun
was avoiding give it away phae :-)
some of us need give aways.
well. i got down to nine pretty quickly
woot! found both the 8's and almost have the 6's & 7's complete. 14 left.
I always try hoss and it never works
Fireworks!
well done judi
got the 9
it was surprisingly easy
just short a p 6
finito
I have one that's a pt for a noun turned verb
nm
well done
still 12 left here
never saw that po 6 before
yeah, it's kinda weird, but I tried it and it worked
after all the thousands of grids I've done.. i don't recall seeing that word before
see if you can guess which g I'm missing :D
ge5.14
I have one, bea, are there 2?
that'd be my guess too
there are two
ok, then that's it. will look. wanna guess my missing h?
got the g, thx!
ho5?
Is it the ho5 I always miss?
yep, thx!
snap bea you owe me a coke
I usually get that one :<
LOL!
any weird p's besides the po6? missing 2.
po 6/30, pls
po7 is oddish
po6.30 is the pt of what peas come in
po7 is an Italian magistrate
I have po7 for mail, so I'm assuming it's something else
ty Bea
oh, italian stuff, forget it
po7.36
why do italian words go right pasta you hokie?
just can't noodle my way onto them
it's all in ciao you find them i guess
ciabatta be able to clue it for me

I love cheese...especially with my Italian pasta and wine
Do you have a favorite cheese, Krysten?
I love cheese too, Krysten
I don't trust anyone who doesn't
i have two favorite cheeses
Favourite cheese...they're all good...but I love the strong ones best.
can I have the stat for the 5th col d? P&TY

bye bea. got the de5 and led to e4 I was missing.
hi carla - hope you didn't take offense at my comments the other day -- as molly said, we all have our own interpretation of the guidelines :)
I'm just thrilled that our provincial health officer has finally pronounced us "at the end of the beginning"
hi nan, it's okay. you are allowed to have your opinion on things. I have a pretty thick internet skin and don't take offense much.
whew, had to go to the list for the last 5. finally saw something that looked italian for that po7. but fireworks!
haven't found the italian one yet - a clue please?
I'm making swim trunks for all my boys this week, so back to the sewing machine!
italian magistrate
yes - saw that, but I don't know any italian
similar to a CA town that starts with Mo, different start & end letter
nm - monkeyed it
ty hoke -- don't know if I would have thought of the town without knowing the word first :)
I think there was a Who album called o4 and s4
down to 14 and grinding to a halt -- missing an e from the corner - have ea 4 and eg 5-6 - no more ideas
Wow Harry, very good. That is not a well known album.
17 here, and also missing an e from the corner :)
another ea4, like on a house
that's not a corner E is it?
missing one from the a below it as well
that's probably ae5/12
nm - found the missing a
yep
no, just saw the corner you were referring to ;). another eg6
eg5/6 is a verb, other eg6 is noun
Can anyone clue any E words and also the 8's, please? Thank you in advance.
got it! ty carla
the 8's rhyme - they are pretty easy, are you sure you want clues?
mmm -- looking for the noun
You can read over the chat for clues by clicking on the icon at the top two down from My Friends. The square one. If you hover over it it will say View Entire Chat Log
well, they don't really rhyme as much as they are the same word except for the first letter
is the eg 6 noun also a 6/24?
yes nan. very similar
hello again
hi all help with the 9 pls

Good morning.
hahaha ruru - good one!
good morning ori.. sent you a note this am.
good morning friends! Just a quick lash at nbt before first zoom of the day....
i have to head out to senior hour at shopping.. :D
have fun all
in all seriousness, how is that ruru? is it worth it?
yes.. no big crowds.. just a bunch of freaked out seniors :D
are the shelves more stocked at that hour?
plus most things are in stock yes
ty - will advise senior here
Thanks, ru!
buying for me and my ex who's too freaked out to go shopping at whole foods
hugs ori
:D
Hi Trif
hello origami dear
gotta run.. later taters
later spud
lots of fun with the goats this morning - they were extra zoomy as the sun was shining.
missing one g - grrrrrr
I love goats.
trif, I was missing the first ge5/14
not a word I've ever seen - relates to plaster of paris
It is used to cover raw canvas before it is painted on - and other surfaces also. It used to be made of rabbit skins.
Wow, the oddball stuff I learn here.
morning all, late start on this one for me...hopefully a bit more challenging than yesterday's
Hi mool
hey ori, happy wednesday
the ge 5/14 ~ yes use it in crafts a lot
hey moo! I thought it was just a smidge more challenging than yesterday, but bea thought it was easier. I think I made it to 5 left on both days pre-list.
Yeah, looks like an easier one so far...almost half way
it's possible I was more awake when I started yesterday's and therefore saw them faster
rough night?
no, and I even got up earlier yesterday, but maybe 2nd day in a row using an alarm instead of waking up naturally got me. :D
heh
Are you getting this?
I am a night owl and never adjust to DST
I really appreciate not using an alarm these days.
right column grey, whooooo
I almost always wake up before my alarm when I use them
like this morning...had to get up for a 7am call
10 to go
Just got fireworks. Not usual for me. Hope Dr. God can get back online soon. Have fun, you guys.
congrats jwr
ah, there's the 9...
5 to go
is the 9 a compound?
Does anyone know what "Hope Dr. God can get back on line soon" means?
no, it's a word you would think shouldn't be a verb
hmmmmm
ty
found it! weird one
i need to eat....
nice
was wondering the same, molly
final 2
hi all. we have had small grids for a week or more now. hmmm.
last word
yeah mool!
well, I don't think it's anything planned. he generates a bunch of puzzles at once and then they change daily. I don't think he sits around and picks and chooses.
right. i am sure this is a computer think that is automatic.
there goes my image of a medical deity sitting around handcrafting grids
any clues for the 8s? i got the 9
Ha, mool
medical deity? he is a real doctor?
"we have had crwths for a while, let's add that one in a couple of grids"
the 8s are the same word with different start letter. one is mail related and the other is crime related
no idea, just playing off his handle
fw
Yay, mool!
I was more referring to why jwr wants him back online. and has he been offline? he's always kinda been hands off here except for emergencies.
well done, moo
yeah!
last one was that political consultant who got his email hacked in 2016 :)
what are stats for the 8s? ty
tx hoke, back to back grids without a single clue
got the po 8! ty
po 7/40 ho 7/40
ho8/55 and po8/55. they are pretty easy
I'm going to go with this being the same level of difficulty as yesterday
got both. ty
sorry yes the 8's are the stats that hoke quoted...was looking at the 7s :)
I feel pretty accomplished with my 5 left on each day. I can't imagine finishing one without a clue
As you should be hoke
always an accomplishment to get 95% without lists
yes
today's was easier re: big words
i need some healp with d word fifth column d. ty
how it might sound for a New Zealander to say the maine character's name in 2001 ;)
had to get a clue for that - d + thing on a roof/house
maine=main
LOL, not getting that clue
Was imagining a New Zealander talking to a lobster fisherman
2001 a space odyssey that is
ah, that makes more sense, but I've never seen it
always wished I'd played the theme song in band but never got to
yes, libstas are pritty flash eh?
reverting to my kiwi roots here
well hopefully tomorrow's grid will be bigger
I'm sorry de5, I'm afraid I can't do that
how long have you been in US?
Molly gets it
since 1995, by way of Australia
I thought everyone knew about Hal
just wondering how strong your accent still is. can you say r's?
I'm familiar with Hal but still haven't seen the movie :D
I over pronounce my r's, except at the end of words where I kinda convert them to a's
The I'm sorry de5 line is one of Hal's most famous
I'm sure it gets stronger if you talk to someone in NZ. I've been here since 1995 but whenever I talk to anyone back home, my husband and kids think I'm speaking a different language.
You're from NZ?
Ha! No, I guess that was poorly worded. I'm from Appalachian Mts here and live in NC now but it's worlds apart
have only been to NZ in the movies :D
Ah, yes that makes sense...and yes, when I speak to Aussies, Kiwis, Brits or even South Africans my accent tends to come back
what makes it funny to me is these are both US English
There's been a couple of places in the US that I've struggled a little bit to understand what they were saying, most memorably in Bangor, Maine
They found Carla in a deserted cabin when she was young, mumbling about evil doers. Oh wait, that was Nell.
I remember asking someone for directions, got the first sentence, then the rest sounded like gibberish
yeah, I have a friend here whose parents are from ME and that is a tough one
Fireworks for me.
BTW, decided to start watching X-Files (for the umpteenth time) and am coincidentally on the S1 ep "Ghost in the Machine", which is about a computer AI taking over a building.
well done, ori
guess I will go walk the dog before the rain comes. TTFN!
i dont get the d clue......not at all. dont recall names of 2001 characters. sorry
oooooh got it now. ty
great clue actually. perfect.
hubby may need to go to hospital at nih.
still missing the E bottom row. any clues for those words? ty
oops just got one. ty anyway
i dont think the 9 is a real word. not at all.
mkg I thought your husband worked at the hospital at NIH
he does. but he has corona now. and if he needs to be hospitalized, they will admit him there...........ugh.
I can't think of anywhere better to be hospitalized. I hope he gets well soon.
2 left - eg6 - I have the poo one- and the second ed4 - any clues please
There is another ED 4
5 left. going to the list - I simply can't look at this grid anymore :)

12 left and stuck
ho
*Is sure Knight is not calling Peri a ho : D
OOOPPSSS
my apoligies
apologies
stuck with 32 left so you will be fine peri
Knight, when women used to post about their dh (meaning dear husband) I thought the dh stood for dickhead. : D I honestly don't know anyone who refers to their husband as "dear husband" or "beloved"
prefer your interpretation Molly
ost
oops sorry
yep, in all my years of internet-ing, I have never ever said dear husband or dear son. there's a disney board I used to go on years ago that is all DH, DW, DS, & DD.
my husband is my husband: no adjectives used.
speaking of which, I hope he gets well soon
FW
fw here too. congrats hoya
s
Beloved dickhead bdh?
I always think designated hitter when I see it
I guess they both involve bats
Love the DH and dickhead discussion
Oh crap, water all over the place about beloved dickhead. : D
another small one!
Said another disappointed woman : D
bahahahaha
How is your family Phan? On the mend, I hope.
we are all better! Lucky
