Any 8 would be an 8, but not all 8s are an8s - Philoophy of the Grid

Got the na88 but bemused by the an8 - need clue please
Does it come from to or bottom?
bottom "A"
Not seeing it!
Woman's name + part of your eye you put shadow on, singular and plural.
Hi all! May I have a tiny nudge on the na8? FYI, I don't have an na6...
I just found the na 6/21...made me a little sick :)
Thank you! Got them both now!
And I got the 8

hello
I would have given Matty a tiny nudge over the toilet bowl : D
What are you doing today, Molly?
ok I can't find that en6 even with morewords. Anyone got a clue?
i have an en 6.....to put grain in storage....
TY, penquis.
ewwwwwww.....
What?
Rearrange the letters a bit, and you have a word meaning "to make an island of"
duh - I was looking the wrong way on that one. Tx.
yw...
scrabs.....um.....there is a Q in my name.....
yw, rasta....
yw, rasta.....not sure why i keep typing is....
I typed a q in your name.
look at what was posted....
I see that she posted penquis?
I think you need to look at what was posted, pen - it looks alright to me
In my chat it shows your correct name.
this is weird.....what is posted on my screen is the plural of a male sexual organ....
Odd
8:25 am Scrabbler Profile United States TY, penises.
This is what I see: ScrabblerProfileUnited States TY, penquis.
Weird....just refreshed the page and now it shows penquis....
it's like my screen was doing its own spell check....
Spooky
yes!
90 left. I am done. Enjoy the day and I will see you tomorrow.
bye, scrabs....
you're seeing penises in the grid penquis?
yes, unfortunately....
Worse - seeing them in the chat
it's interesting because i also had a "tile" that said nan/13....have had those nan's before....not sure why they appear....
ru.....not in the grid, in the chat....
pen...I had that nan/18 before too
refreshing usually makes them disappear...
i could see spell check changing penquis to penis
yes, me, too.....or penguin which would have been preferable...
I've had that happen in other web sites puzzles too.
yeah penguin would be much better
penquis is the region i used to live in.....Penobscot and Piscataquis counties.....
i know... the river
didn't you say two rivers intersect there
yes, both are rivers, too.....used to live on the Piscatagquis....
it's a tributary of the Penobscot...
how's that for memory on my part ?
:D
it's one of the things that make you great, ru... ;o)
i'd feel more great if I could find my last L
i am only missing 16 Ls right now, lol....
i just have a few tiles I can't find anything from
are you saying that you have some blank tiles??....hard to believe....
no.. just missing a few words i have 7 to go
ah, ok....i have 70 to go....
just finished, any clues needed?
i'm missing 4 r's and 3 s's and i just see nothing
i am missing 3 R's.....and lots of S's.....
i don't know what i'm needing luv.. but thank you anyway
all my R's are ordinary....

same happens to me all the time. I've started just saying I'm leaving earlier than I really am ;)
good plan!
I want to go to McLoon's with Pen. I want a lobster roll.

we missed slurpee day this year.
speaking of 7-11.
they are building a 7-11 right near my house. will have to remember next year if we are ever back to normal
every time I've ever tried to get a slurpee on 7/11 all the flavors but one gross one is out. I'd rather just pay on another day.
well I am listing now - got no time later.
I believe I will too.
65 left listing shortly too
just finished going through all the tiles again and don't think I'll see many more
bbs
I go through the list backwards. So the first thing I come up against is ye6/7 - never would have gotten that w/o morewords
must be my missing 2 y's
it's a doozie
I sometimes go through backward. started at the top today. of course 2 ae6.
do you have the an7/8? not seeing it
nope - won't be there for awhile :)
was hoping you found it before the list ;)
Oh hell yes. I would eat Maine lobster for breakfast. Anytime.
:D
our trip up to acadia was one of our favorites. would love to go back to ME.
ME doesn't want us right now. So we're going to NH instead
really baffled by these ho's
that sounds like a yearbook quote.
cannot figure out the an7 and 8..any clues?
I couldn't get those either, suzee
been trying for an hour, lol
lol, harry, I hope people aren't saying that in the yearbook
I am up to the ho6/7 right now
I will probably just look them up when I get through the list
got them.
and???
like a scottish person saying the name of the austrina composer joseph
@hokie... think: obstreperous girl- and plural of same
ugh that was terrible
sailors exclamation minus first letter + bear's home
felt like I tried that. thx to you both. though, gingin, I was going to have to look up obstreperous :D

morning Liz
ty....
Morning Lyn. Morning all
Sorry that you're back in lockdown, Lyn. Guess it won't be too long before it spreads back up here again.
I hope not! It's pretty scary
Yes but also pretty inevitable that it'll spread here again now that borders are open.
Fingers crossed for you. Though so many people don't take it seriously
6 young Victorians caught trying to cross into QLD this weekend.
$24000 fines for them. Stupid!
Yeah I saw - idiots! bullet-proof youth and a sense of entitlement
Yeah.
That's me done. Enjoy your day Liz. Bye all
Congrats, Lyn. Have a good day.
may I have a clue for the DY 5 please
phan dy5. dy + little ****, character in the old curiousity shop, by charles dickens
ugh should have said most of little ****.
Thanks, Granny, not familiar with that dickens story
but you did get the answer?
oh. No...
otherwise, add a consonant to the dy4 before it
I got it now, Thanks, Granny
May I have AE 6 clues?
NM. I figured them out
ae6/21, the first. ae + a croco**** has big teeth
lol.... well done phan
Thanks, Granny. I am now thinking on the EN 6/18...
rhymes with the first ae6. en + guided mis****, weapon of destruction
Thanks!
hi all, diving in
Good luck, Gwen. There are a bunch of LI words that are boggling my mind...
*takes out towel and wipes off splash from Gwen's dive* g'day gwen...loll... come on in , the water's fine
**hands towels to grannyrose**
warm and fluffy i hope
towels not me...loll
yes, are large, and no food stuck to them lOL
well that's a plus then....
phan you need help with those li words?
there's 14 of them starting with the same three letters
sure! at a minimum, I need all the 6 and 7's...
rhyming with vera lynn....li6/21 .. li* + lion's home. then plural
for another add sometimes vowel to material made from flax
so I have 3 more from the upper L then
2...
li6/24. li* + backward positive answer
last one is the LI 5/14
and got it
Thanks for your help Granny!
well done phan
may I have a clue for the RU 6?
ru + trigonometry word, phandmd
Thanks, Dan!
se 6/21?
rhymes with first ae. just use s instead of a at the beginning
seems like there are lots of words like that...
yup
hi rose! hi phan!
Hi, TO!
la nds
NBT-4. I might get the grids done a lot faster if I didn't care about getting the same number of words from each tile.
how goes it?
rose? how are you?
I am good. How about you. Looking forward to having the day off tomorrow...
i am ok. the linger i am home, the less i want to go out. that worries me.
TO, much better thanx . and thank-you for caring te other day. i was in such a mess
SI 6/18?
rose: day by day. i've been a blubbering mess on the phone to my SO.
Understandable though, TO...
some days are difficult.
si + lois, superman's girlfriend
aww TO. it's so frustrating. it had just been announced that we had to go into another 6 week lockdown and i lost the plot. i was so looking forward to being able to see my kids and their families.
oh my, i keep seeing ads for domino's p[izza - which does not compare to good real pizza- but it makes me hungry. anyway. i will be 00 lbs before this is over!
00 pounds. I'll be 300 :D
i did not realize that was the case, rose. i would lost it, too
ori.my two is not working. i refuse to get on the scale.
Sorry, rose. Actually, I wish we were on lockdown here. It has been partially lifted.
it's just awful. i know if i phone or video chat with them, all i will do is blubber. and i have so many things i want to share with them. and they with me. *sigh*
I have lost my scale and not looked very hard for it :D
goos work!
ori
Ls are Lassoed
have you exterminated the Es?
you are fortunate. because of my heart failure i am suposed to weigh daily. well i could do that i suppose just won't open my eyes. ...loll
A friend is coming over tomorrow!!!!! We are going to visit (with masks, 6 feet away). I haven't seen her since February. I have only seen one other friend since this shit show started.
damn between this machine on its last legs and my arthritic fingers, i cannot type
nope, still missing two Es
(rarely do i exterminate these days) LOL
I have terrible arthritis in my back and hips. I feel so fortunate I do not have it in my hands (knocking on wood).
lovely ori. we aren't allowed to visit at all. only four reasons to leave the house. food, medical, work if you can't from home, and exercise. and that's it.
i have a talking dalek keychain. it is the only thing my squirrels are afraid of!
TA 5/20?
poor little squirrels LOL
i don't guess all this time on the keyboard helps.
That's where we were, rose. But, now, it's like the wild west out here. People are ignoring the governor's mask mandate.
i'll ship them to you. they make lovely pets.
Hi all. It may be late for this advice, but I've found a few things that have really helped my mental and emotional survival these last few months...
ori" you are exactly right. not sure it people really think this is over, or are sick of it and are fatalixtic.
I don't mind the squirrels nearly as much as the rats. There are a lot of them here. Eating everyone's vegetable gardens.
Pray tell, nrkii.
1. I asked several different friends to do zoom calls. I was having 3-4 calls per week in March / April. Less now.
hello nrk! want some squirrels?
2. I started writing cards to people. Sent 20 each week for several weeks. With full messages.
3. I seriously limited my news to 30 minutes per day. The rest of my free time is spent reading, walking, doing crossword puzzles. And a tiny bit of nighttime TV.
4. I am outdoors most of the day, even it means I am just rocking on my porch and doing nothing else.
you have a great network.
i just finished reading mc cullough
5. I found people who were in much worse shape than me, especially financially, and I found ways to help them. Altruism is the best mood enhancer possible. And it doesn't have to be $ support. It can just be phone calls.
s bio of john adams. it was great
i need to get back to the food bank but the longer i am home alone the less i want to go out.
TO, I get that. I finally went to visit my family last week and I missed my house (which I am now calling my bubble) so much the entire time.
please think of every four letter cuss words you can, i am muttering them. hospital has just phoned and my booked admission has been cancelled until i have had a swab done and the results are back. soooo annoyed. i asked to be swabbed a week ago, and because i am symptom free i was refused. * drummings heels , screaming madly *
Oh, gran... so sorry!!
#$!!!**###
It's too hot here now to be outside, except in the mornings. I have taken to sitting on my patio and reading in the morning. I like your idea about the cards nrk.
*futile attempt to replicate cartoon cussing*
i walk + miles in the early am then about another mile in the evening. it's beastly humid
That is so very frustrating!
make that two. the two key has given up the ghost.
origami, it's very hot here, so I admit it's a lot less pleasant to be outside now than it was a few weeks ago... but I'm making myself do it because I can't keep staring at the same walls
that sucks
If you were asking for it in preparation for a medical procedure, that makes no sense.
Today I watched a squirrel do about 50 somersaults. I have never in my life seen a squirrel do a somersault.
wow you MUST be bored
It was 104 here today. Major cooldown to 100 here tomorrow.
nrkii, maybe it has cv-19
not at all … it was pretty freaking amusing (plus I was on a phone call at the time)
humid, too, ori?
we are famous here for our humidity. No wonder the early government had to vacate to avoid yellow fever each summer.
ah well, it seems i know where i am going to be tomorrow. sitting in my car for about 4 hours, waiting to be swabbed. *sigh*
nrk - have you seen this? https://tinyurl.com/y8973xx5
No, not really humid. More like blast furnace heat :D
rose, i am sorry. bad emough to have a procedure/
origami, YES! it inspired me to start putting out a few walnuts each day
but not to build an obstacle course
is it the aquirrel maze?
yes
It's really funny, TO.
nkk: wiat until you open your door and there they are waiting to get in. they used to climb the siding at my mother's house. she would open the window to hand clothes, and there it was
The first UR 6/21
nrk: your personal custom builder could knock one out :)
I never knew why birds dive-bombed the squirrels until recently I read that the squirrels will not only steal birds' eggs, but eat the baby hatchlings if they can.
TO, right now they are busy picking all the baby pears on my pear trees and dropping them on the cars below... they do try to eat them, so there are bites taken out of every pear that drops...
TO, i am to have magnesium infusions for 3 days for the FM. usually also have ketamine but last time i reacted in a rather nasty way. magnesium i could just go to my docs clinic three days in a row but he wants me to have a break from the house,
please.
They eat my plums also. But, I have too many too high up to pick, so I just enjoy them. I also have a mini bamboo forest in my backyard. I enjoy watching them play in there.
Same here, origami. They're free labor to prune the trees!
i seem to be in the minority in the court of squirrel opinion.
Last Word TA 5/20?
I watched some blue jays come after the walnuts the other day, and their behavior was deplorable... I'll take the squirrels any day.
Well, the wildlife around here is limited to squirrels, rats and birds. So I enjoy the squirrels.
just monkied it!
phan, if you still need it. the first ur6 is the vessel into which you pee.
we have crows. they tend to start around 6:30 AM
Plural of TA* Mahal
I love blue jays.
lolll, phan
Blue jays are pretty, but they are super competitive and mean to each other
my neighbor is beset by foxes. they are bigger than her dog!
When I lived in the redwood forest, we had Stellar's jays. They were mean cusses.
TO, I'm not sure what the first ur6 21 is... the first one I have is plural of pee
oh, wait, the appliance men pee into
the first one is like mr heep
oops that is the first one. sorry
jays are so noisy. and so atre the robins. but the crows are the worst.
Now I have to cue up some of that band's music :D
they sit ont he neighbor's chimney and squawk like all get out
Maybe I like in-your-face birds, because I like crows also.
we have deer, foxes, turkeys, and a groundhog. also the occasional misguided bear.
22 to go, finally found an 8
i saw a young groundhog running towards the automatic doors of the local gym saturday afternnon. i was so surprised!
I'm jealous TO. We do actually have turkeys around here - hard to believe in a metropolitan area of 1.5 million prople.
i hear that , ori. they are in philadelphia too.
the turkeys
flocks of them cross the road, it's nuts
I like seeing them.
i do, too, but they are mean cusses.
and so big
I have even seen a few coyotes on the campus I work at smack dab in the middle of Sacramento.
i would not want to see one. also have been in the city.
Yes, turkeys are scary animals. Have you seen the PBS Nature documentary "My Life as a Turkey." It is awesome.
no, but one got between me and my car once when i was leaving the dentist. they don't like cheddar popcorn, BTW, and were pretty pissed when i threw it at them in an attempt to distract them
they were like, oh food, then ptui!
The males can be pretty aggressive during breeding season. They are all over the campus I work at and people have to walk in very wide circles around them :D The turkeys, not the coyotes, who just run away.
this turkey had lost its mate. it was not happy.
male
Check out that show if you can, TO. It is a real eye-opener about these birds.
so sorry to be so chatty. happy babbling to all. time to wind down fot the evening. ty ori, i will look for it.
See you, TO.
fw
I learned what a ho6/30 was, so there's that
Me
douglas, ho6 describes me very well....much to my mother's disgust. she wanted a little lady, and she got me.loll
Did she ever call you a ho6?
my mother called me worse things than a ho
that was ho6 I mean
glad you clarified that doren :D
Walt Whitman wrote, "The drops I distil upon you shall grow fierce and athletic girls, new artists, musicians, and singers,"
douglas, ho6 was just ONE of the names she called me.... loll
I take it that the purpose of calling you a ho6 was to shame you out of certain behaviors?
I've ran out of gas to make it to NBT-5
Yup
Ye6,7?
More than a feelin!
Ty, more words. Fw
Yay mixi6!
