Good day, msr.
Hello, Babbleland...
morning, bea!
looked out the window over my kitchen sink and there's a cicada on the screen.
We have Japanese beetles flying all over our yard.
haven't seen those yet
we don't get a lot of those here though I've seen them over the years. but they used to destroy my mom's stuff when I was a kid.
Good morning, y'all.
morning judi
man, only finding a third of the top S. must need more coffee.
Hmm. Hitting the wall with 113 left. * feeling inadequate *
but finished the C so I've got that going for me
I just started so haven't reached feelings of inadequacy yet. keep going!
hmm, I appear to be a little useless with the F...
nm
You can do it Judi (joins in the Judi ego boosting rally) : D
It took me a long time on that F...
Me too. I wish I could say it was a weird word, but no.
It's just a weird piece of furniture.
felt like it took me a while but it appears from the chat it was a minute
I guess reup is a military word that didn't make on enable. maybe it has a hyphen.
31 left...taking a break...
haven't even made halfway yet but I have grayed 5 tiles!
Scratched and clawed my way to 63. Not looking promising ...
finally made it to halfway
some weird T's
I love it when typing random things takes
hmm, have somehow found 2 of the 8s
Hello all
hello, wendrie
Oh yes - random typing or mistyping words are always nice :)
well, 1st pass through the grid - at least halfway on every tile, 57 left. this is a tough one today. going to try to get back into my workout routine today with a zoom class in a few minutes so I better get ready.
I've just finished my first pass through - 78 words and one on every tile. Off to get some lunch!
Enjoy the workout Carla
nbt and 72 to go. good morning!
Back for my last 30...
good morning
60!
that top S is a whole heap of trouble.
I thought so too. I'm still working on that S.
I found 10 and then nothing on it
the 9 is a S that's for sure
I have 13
left T as well - only 15 found
11 here
ty for the pointer Ru - found my last 8 from the top S.
still missing 4 from top S and 5 from left T...
both s's are giving me trouble
good morning monty
making some progress. now just missing 10 from left T and 12 from top S.
Hi everyone. Finally got new computer and can play again
they're not difficult words - just pretty twisty
good morning ru, Harry et al - missing 3 from bottom S
welcome back bichon
hi there bichon
hello all....and nice to see you again, bichon....
I'm good with bottom S - just missing 2.
hi pen
I finally got that one grey. Stupid words with all the vowels.
gm pen
bbl for my last 35 - still missing 3 from top S and 2 from bottom one - have a great day all and stay safe
bye mont
bye montreal....
bye Harry
bye pen ☺
don't you hate when you sit trying F words for 2 minutes, only to realize that your F tile is gray?
hah.....been there, done that for sure....
i haven't ever done that harry
I can't imagine you doing that ru. You are much too together :)
OK. I have a mug of coffee and 3 oreos and ready to tackle this grid
go harry!!
i want the oreos....
yeah - that's just not gonna happen pen.
I'm not a good sharer.
Just ask my kids.
:o(
still missing one R - but as far as I can tell, there are no re-words meaning again, which is unusual
i did stare at that F for too long a time however to figure out what came from it
somebody let it slip earlier.
well.. I was happy to put it to bed
yes - that kind of clue :)
ah! finished the Rs
there is a doozy s for sure.. maybe two i've never seen before
50!
will bbl with fresh eyes, hopefully.
and more oreo?
oreos are really, really bad for you .. super high in FAT
I got lost somewhere...
and Bad Fat at that
Ru, guess what I have growing in my yard?
zucchini?
what?
Aw, yes. But can you guess what color it is?
yello?
yellow?
No.
oh bichon is back
Purple
We planted Grey zucchini.
hot pink
never heard of grey zucchini
picyure, pls
I know. I did plant some golden zucchini as well. It hasn't started producing.
It's almost bread making time
it's almost support zucchini photo time :D
Maybe Bea's support zucchini can give out free therapeutic advise in the chat
I will try to get pics, bichon. They are really a pale green with white ish grey spots on them. The leaves are huge, dark green with grey veins.
interesting, never heard of golden zucchini. how does that differ from yellow squash?
You can also do a Google search for pictures
yeah, but I'm wondering more about ta5
I can't taste the difference between one squash and another. Maybe because I don't care for it.
I'm not sure, Carla. But there is a difference between yellow squash and zucchini.
which isn't in the grid haha
We love it. I made a Japanese squash dish earlier in the week. It was yumm.
zucchini is squash, right?
yup
A friend of mine posted a FB meme where you were to take a picture of yourself psoing like the model with what you had at your right side at that moment. I had a zuchini...LOL!
I didn't always like veggies but learned to love zucchini. now I think I like yellow squash more.
nothing like a picture of someone fondling a large zucchini
I have two ta5 homie ty
I was rubbing it against my face...=)
Auto correct bytes again
mixi, I was talking about taste, which isn't in the grid, so not sure why I said ta5
I love it, mixi.
that's hilarious bea
I saw that, but found two anyway. Thanks
glad I could help. I have no ta5, so I guess I better start looking.
well.. it's true homie.. this grid has no taste
May have to list soon.
I've got 12 left and lots to do, so I am going to list...
anyone else try taupier?
I did hokie!
i did
And taupiest...
I did, too....
Which is more taupier
there are definitely ta7 grids than this, ru
*wondering if carla eats the grids after finishing them"....
I think there are a lot of weird v's in general, are these weird today? I have 4.
only if they have food in them, pen
most of the V's I've found are fairly common in other word games
my 4 v's are 4's
Phantom : tofu
there is a va7
ok, thx
:)
The va 7 Is more
Check pluras hokie
well that's a weird one
i am missing four Vs....have the 7....
I'm still missing 2 of the v's
I thought so too, Carla.
make that 3.....love it when people ask about something in chat...makes me look harder....
treat
trying to wrap my head around that 7 - why the one vowel?
oops
hokie should look at lungs?
I've been adding that suffix to everything.
LOL ru
it works for a lot of em Bea :)
zucchiniest?
ooh, just 2 v's left
Yes! Those are the biggest ones, Ru.
1 v left
Try using the last vowel in those V's
just made up va5
*waves to Doren*
Un plural it.
That is a word isn't it...?
oh, it's a coin
According to my friend Guinness...the longest zucchini was 8 feet and the heaviest was 64 pounds. Something to aspire to, Bea.
Make it singular. There. Proper English.
Bees vanquished
v's done, thanks bea! though I did see the singular when I checked the def. surely I would have eventually tried that.
I could do it, Molly. It might not be edible...
LOL, spell check strikes again, mixi
it's more rubbable bea
I'm wondering how edible some of those "largest" vegetables are.
Does not sound appealing!
Yup
Oh man Ru, you are treading in dangerous water.
I think they're not
Yeah, we better squash this line of conversation before we all get in trouble.
we could talk about pumpkins
Finally count on the blueberry jam...I got 36 half pints. That's a lot of jammin'!
wow bea
that's a ton of work
It was, but worth it. The peaches will be next. That is more work.
great job, Bea.. hi all
howdy, aloy
i used to help my grandmother can stuff and make jams and preserves.. it's a lot of work
all google-eyed after finishing the ai's.. what a trip
name that tv sidekick that means stupid in spanish!
morning aloy
yes, I used to start at the end of Aug and finish the end of October - "putting things by" as the old Mason booklet called it.
Tonto?
ding ding ding!
aw, Tonto wasn't stupid
ta5/12 was my last...I'm out of here until tomorrow...
morning all, just 11 left, played at flip
wow.. how rude of the Lone Ranger
hagd Bea!
bye bea!
thanks bea, that finished my right T!
howdy hurshy, still 46 left here
still need 4 T's from the right
well get the two ta5/12s and one of them has a plural
I have all those
hmmm
any tu?
yes, 3, all fours
got 'em. the higher point one took a while. now just one T from right
do you have ta7 and to8
yes
do you have two ta4s that sound alike but one is a greek letter and one is a plural of an asian word for the Way
got it
i just need one more t now, from the left
I need 2 from the left
i need SANTOS
SANTO, and all the 4s and 5s are done. i shall get the list.
oh, now I get it
I still have 14 4's to work on
what do you get? my louis XIV clue from yesterday?!!?!
LOL
I didn't know if you needing SANTOS was like you needing more cowbell, but then you changed it to SANTO, so I assume those are the tiles you have left open
yes :D
when i have a small number of words left i like to try to make their first letters spell something
how'd I miss hi4? the acceptable appalachian english word
FTR, th5 is not acceptable
yeah i noticed that too
anyone have sc7?
well, I missed tu4.8 - my last word. Any clues needed before I scoot?
aloy has it, hursh :D
sc7 please :D last word!
sc7 is a weird plural for "a hard tumor": it ends in a common short greeting, not low
alloy, tu 4/8,pls
bichon, it's like the big brass instrument in a band but diff cons in the middle
wow, that may be the weirdest word ever. thanks.
tu + ** la la la la, la la la la
yup, hursh - had to look that one up
tis the season to be jolly
ty carla, Aloy
managed to get it, thx. is that similarly spelled like the liver disease or is the h in a different place?
speaking of season, phantom season
thinking sclerosis?
hurshy, you still here? what is my missing N?
that sc 7 has got to be one of the weirdest words to be seen here....ty, aloy....
There is no H in the liver disease
ok, thx
off to less fun endeavors.. Happy Babbling all!
bye, aloy!
i am off.....bbl to find my last 40....bye all...
bye pen!
missing N... hmmm... if it were TWO missing...
do you have both plurals of the sun exploding death?
yes
no6 and 7 about the rope
no6 more of a busybody
I hae no5 & 6 about the rope
well you can plural the 6
stupid, but duh. thanks
well, taking the dog to the vet today so guess I could shower and stuff :D. BBL for last 30!
hope all is well with the dog!
just due for some vaccines and need new heart worm meds
not even seeing the dr, just a tech visit
how many vaccines hokie?
with goldens it is best not to do too many vaccines at once... it's not good for their immune system.. just sayin'
morning all...getting started on this one
morning Moolingwa
hey wen, happy Wednesday
moo!
hey ru, he's only getting bordatella today
hoke, how goes?
pretty good I guess, how about you?
about the same :)
normally I would leave now and walk to the vet but they are taking dogs in without owners so too hot to wait outside
indeed
also too hot to walk LOL
got in about 150 minutes this morning
only 89, feels like 97 though right now. it's a cold spell
150 minutest of walking?
these last 23 are elusive. BBL.
yes, 150 minutes
37 left here
woot fireworks :)
any clues before I leave?
I'm good thanks wen, enjoy your day
Thanks Moo - you too.
Toodle-ooo (adding to the rhyming scheme)
good morning all
I saw a girl with a mask which said "Socially distance princess"
hey nan
wish they were in shops here -- maybe some of the young people would buy them and wear them. Now that tourist season is in full swing and the beaches and bars are open we have gone from 0 new cases per day to 20-30 per day --- not happy. Wish they would close the bars and tell the tourists that all of our hotels have bedbugs and cockroaches!
I have to say that people in Connecticut wear their masks seriously
they do here too bichon -- it is th party going tourists that don't
does anyone have a clue for that weird sc 7 please?
If you come here by plane you have to register and quarrantine. There's a 1 thousand dollar fine if you break quarrantine
I think when they are able to trace the source of an infection, that person should receive a card informing them of the number of people who are sick and have died as a result of their inconsiderate actions
If that were to help, great. There's lots of people who just don't give a damn
maybe they could be charged with public mischief and fine --- it seems that for some people, money is the only thing that talks
*fined
sc 7 please?
(Nan is going to freak when she gets this one)
well I can't scream, so I don't know about that
First three of what you cut fabric with + double consonant + short form of hello
ty - very strange and would never have found it without a clue
guess it would be unknown to anyone other than an onocologist
hey moo, 150 min of walking is great! how far does that take you? (in miles please, you know I'm an American LOL)
need to go and do some deadheadding before it gets too hot - bbl
I'm throwing in the towel for last 21.
also I'm going on record that the p4 interjection is one of the stupidest spellings I've ever seen on enable.
and yet we have had it before
must have been during my years off
also, my missing p's were like the f's I had. thought that was a hyphenated word but whatevs
did you get all the dead blooms off?
there are a lot of words today with suffixes I would never have added as being proper english
agreed
and if those are words I can certainly use stupidest
well, wrapped it up with the list. now off to do something else.
still havent figured out what I can add to the ghost to make it a 9
I ended up having to look it up. it was clued about 1am but I still couldn't get it. and I did music. definitely looks like a music term once I got it
ty carla - that gave it to me
can't even think how to clue without just giving it away
oh good
*!*~*!* Back to the deadheading -- 89F in the shade so can only stay bent over in the sun for about 10 minutes.
up to 92/feels like 102 here. think I will get in the pool. :D
yes, I am sure that in another 3 hours we will be in the 90's as well - 2-5 pm is the hottest part of our day
hagd and stay safe everyone :)
108 degrees here! Whoa
just went to walmart. did not know they only had the food entrance open and parked at the garden center, like 2 miles away ;). ice cream was very, very soft when I got home.
now I'm hitting the pool! have a nice day, anyone
Enjoy the pool, Hokie.
bring a cooler/ice chest. always in hot weather.

ah hell, now i see it...
It has been a pleasant day here today with temps around 22c / 71f
uh oh, the severe storm warnings beginning. the heat is that extreme, we need storms to break it.
91F./33C here with ungodly humidity.
ayeah it is the humidity that zaps your strength away. Hope you can keep cool.

trying. but my ac is on its last legs. i lost my shade tree last moth in a bad storm. so it's direct sun
we are knnown for our humid beastly summers here. they city would empty out in coloinial times because of yellow fever.
Sounds a bit of a harsh climate. Must admit I do like it very very hot but with high humidity I think even I would struggle.
I feel for you.
yes, the humidity makes it tough. we are down on rainfall. the seer and other ritters are everywhere , eating everything.
deer. the deer. i am waiting for them to attack my hostas.
hostas are like a salad bar for deer.
LOL
Shame I think hosta are nice plants.
i like them but i hate their flowers. the deer don't touch the flowers.
this grid has many almost words...

well th is grid finished up pretty quickly once i listed... ;o)
hello
evening all! did we have the racism discussion already about sp4/6?
I wasn't here if we had it. But I noticed recently that 'Coon" is not in the Words With Friends dictionary
I'm fine not having it, to be clear :-)
It seems we have the racism discussion every time one of these words crop up. Are they offensive? Yes. Are they in the dictionary? Yes. Which makes them playable in a word game.
I had to look it up, to make sure there was no other definition....life in a small town
Maybe it's being used as part of the phrase..."."*** n' span".
That's what I thought but it wasn't listed as a definition.
help with SC 7 pls
A Yiddish group of clouds
Clever Ru : D
did you get it Teach?
not from the clue - keppt monkeying it
** finito ** last word VO 4 - no definition
I find the word trump offensive
pius
hello friends
and I am right there with you, akazev
count for the f please?
nm - thank you for the psychic clue
This one is a bit tough for me ..
hello torgone dear! I'm barely past halfway, but might be able to help
your favorite word is in the grid, so theres THAT
One saucy word doth not a puzzle make ..
sadly, no
Actually. at 51 left I'm about where I get to this time of day, when I play ..
guitar?
Babble .. My guitar practice has fallen off a bit lately due to low motivation coupled with being not at all good ..
i so get you. I have fallen off doing a great many things that I was doing with great gusto when the shut down started
are you going in to work every day, or are you able to work remotely?
Working from home .. Found out I can do 98% of my job without going to the office ..
thats great! I admire your discipline
I have NO idea what I am doing in the fall. none
There's no way they can open open up schools any time soon ..
but they will.
I'm hoping sense will prevail, though it it has been largely absent lately ..
count for the lower corner o please?
nm - got it
Hi folks.
Hi folks.
hello origami
Truly mind-numbing work today. The tedium doubled by a slow internet connection.
Heya ori ..
Hi tor. I am also lingering in the creative doldrums these days. Just no motivation.
sorry to hear that, origami
origami, will you be on campus this fall?
No. The campus is mostly closed until January. Most staff are working from home and classes are remote.
okay. Unique challenges, but safer for all
On a positive note, I am drowning out the noisy neighbors with Cat Stevens tonight :D
nice!
Tomorrow will probably be Leonard Cohen :D
i thought my tenant was at work last week, so I positively BLASTED my favorites arias from operas for a ridiculously long time. there may have been singing along. I found out later he was home, bless his heart
I should get Tor to give me some ideas for the weekend :D
If it's noise you want ..
Well, good noise
Find a jump blues playlist ..
OK, I'll look
I just heard that a student at my university was just killed in a drive-by shooting :-(
Damn
oh no!
She was only 18 and was visiting a grave at a cemetery.
with 72 left, I am calling it a night. sleep well my friends
Nitres Trifs ..
I'm off to paint for a while. See ya.
