darn if anyone knows how to get in touch with bea, she needs to get to a doctor now - right now. Flashes in the eye can be either a migrane or the sign of a detached retina -- in the case of the latter she has 24 hours before it can no longer be repaired. REally needs to be checked out!

Hi Periwinkle! One is an anti-malarial drug
i love when the dictionary doesnt have a meaning for the word............
I know that is the alkaloid
but ty

sounds like a good excuse, ru
firewords! thanks lickety and all cluers
After a few anti-malarial drinks i don't care about mosquitos
clue for the un 8 please
just clued below nancy
thanks ru found it
trying to get grid done before i work on hurricane preps. coming right at me tomorrow.
that's me too.. i'd finish the grid before I prepare for a hurricane
babble rules
hoping the power stays on, that is my only concern.
i'm glad i don't have to deal with hurricanes .. earthquakes and fireseason here are bad enough
rather have the hurricanes where you get notice of it coming than earthquakes where there is no warning.
our earthquakes are mild, but the forest fires are terrible -- now we have someone in a town 50 miles from here going around setting fires along the forestry roads
we had one of those here too.. nan.. i wish the police would just shoot them
oh we can't have that - police brutality - but wouldn't it be justice if they got caught in their own fires?
i understand they're ill but that is about the most horrible thing you can do as a vandal
is fire-setting punishable by death?
not here -- it is punishable by a slap on the wrist
if someone were killed in the fire perhaps.
(asking for Black people who are shot to death for passing a fake $20)
we have reached a point where the western thinking is that the one causing damage or death of others is not punished enough. but on the other hand blacks do suffer at the hands of whites still today.
need to get some breakfast - bbl
each incident must be looked at individually.
Agree, mkg. And people should be given due process, without police acting as judge, jury and executioner. That's the only point I wanted to make.
i think to be a police person, one must have enormous training. they are faced with making life and death decisions in a split second and if they choose wrong they are killed or someone else is.......i say it is like sending soldiers to war and telling them not to kill......very very difficult.
what i find most upsetting is the response to police. if a cop were to approach me for ANY REASON, i would raise my hands and arms and stay still.......and from the videos i have seen, often the person they approach tries to flee or run or becomes unwilling to just stay still!!!!!!! and then if they are killed, the world is furious........but if they are fighting the police the assumption should be that they might be armed and dangerous. so what is a cop to do???? the videos from furgason were awful as the man killed did not stop and stay still.
Yes, I feel for them. And many citizens are better armed than the police. That should never have been allowed to happen.
agree pastor
it used to be that you were TAUGHT in school to just stop and stay still! and raise your hands and you would be taken to jail but at least you would not be killed. now though, with what happened to the guy whose neck was stomped on, even this is questionable.
mkg.. that's not what's happening to people of color. They are raising their arms and doing nothing and still getting beaten and killed
mkg, I've been involved lately in a mixed-race ongoing conversation locally, and it's really opened my eyes to the fact that what works when a white person is approached by police is NOT what works when a Black person is approached.
(ru beat me to it)
ruru, that was my point with the man whose neck was stomped on. exactly that.
it's a bit different when you get pulled over in your mercedes I think
and ru, if you're Black and driving a Mercedes, you're REALLY suspect!
so if you are a person of color your life is in danger every time a cop is near. that is a huge issue and the cops must be questioned about racism! no one should be on a police force who isnt in control of their own brutality
sorry but a mercedes is not an issue. it is that the cop who crushed this mans neck was a brutal person in his soul and this is the issue.
very true pastor..
Hey, I hate that I've poked the hive and now I have to leave. I only wanted to make that one point that the law officers should apprehend if at all possible and let them go through due process from there.
rabblerouser
i remember being stopped on the road for speeding and the cop was a small woman. she was screaming at me and behaving as if i was a very dangerous criminal. i just sat there and after a while said to her""why are you treating me like a hardened murderer?" she backed down a bit but only a bit. and if i were black............well who knows. she may have shot me.
(that's what pastors do) Bye now!
bye
en 8/45, pls

What?? Not as you wish? Is Hursh losing her Princess Bride attachment?
nbt, nbs, tra la la, feeling highly smugh
not losing my PB attachment, no. just went a different direction. :)
gotta keep you all on your toes
no more rhymes now, I mean it
(that's your cue, hurshy)
i know, but i'm always hesitant to do the ones that EVERYBODY knows, lol
lol - I will try to be more obtuse then, you warthog faced buffoon
wait - babboon? No, buffoon, I think
that may be the first time in my life a (wo)man has dared insult me
hahahahahahahaha
hi trif
hello TO
did you get any rain? We haven't had a DROP in over a month now
:O
my yard looks so parched
yes, and looks liek we are in for it this week beginning tomorrow night
Isiasis is cining
good thing i will be indoors at musikfest
thank goodness! We keep getting hints of it, promises of it, other towns get soaked....nothing.
that sounds dangerous COVID-wise though
I know what you mean Trif
this will be hard, i have drainage issues and am havinga whole row of shrubs removed. i picture a mudslide
oh man
at the front of the driveway
we have split up the shifts so no one will be working multiple shifts. i will be indoors at the site where cable tv will sgtage and broadcast.
the out doors is gated and socially distances - tables
oh TO I just read the recipe in your profile - wOW!!!! That looks AMAZING
the rest is virtual.
oh cool, hope it goes well
fa 6/27, pls
first weekend of the gated in person music is sold out
more likely to, bichon - think shakespearean language
bichon - its the same as the fa7.40, but remove the middle consnant
i haven't yet tried it. i am leery of working with shrimp.
sorry, next to last consonant
if you make it, let me know. it sounds like louisiana to me, but no abita beer.
Trifm don't have the 7
fa7, person who passes out
grumping for a hot second - DH did ONE kitchen cleaning chore today - now I will have to spend the day gushing over it....sigh. men!
fa 7.40 not quite as dark
ty hurshy
do you think it would work with scallops, TO?
i need to wash the floors today. i will begin soon, then can babble while they dry
mmmmmm scallops are my favorite
if your day is like mine here, it will be dry at one end before you reach the other
an 6/21 please?
Anyone on this morning who has used fluorouracil (Efudex) on their nose? My allergies started acting up and I'm sneezing. How did you deal with that?
probably
I have used something similar, ch1212, with mixed success. Seems the key is to use it before the allergies really get going, which rarely is how it happens for me
nm - monkeyed it
an6: an + band with a double name, d**** d****
i use flonase
or generic
ty hurshy -- wouldn't know the band, lol
hungry like the wolf
simon le bon
would you know the scientist from Barbarella? That is where the name comes from
oh well, i didn't have the word until you asked the clue, so it worked out well for me anyway :D
Thanks, Trifioso. I took my flonase this morning before the Efudex, hoping that would work. I think I'll start taking a stronger dose of allergy meds.
ch1212 have you tried a neti pot?
i add claritan to the flonase in those emergencies
I use flonase too, TO, works rfeally well
ta 6/21 please?
if you use a neti pot make sure you boil the water first lest you get water-borne nasties in your brain
I do use a neti pot, but it seems like that would be really painful with the topical chemo sores. Did you use one during treatment?
seriously hurshy? I have never done that and I seem to be okay
oh dear - have never had that, i am sorry
Stopped using the netti pot. Nasal fluid just came back
it's not like you'll DEFINITELY get it, it's just a risk. like how they tell you not to eat cookie dough cause you could get salmonella. most times, of course, you won't.
yes, i would opt for saline spray vs neti
all it foes it wash out pollen and soothe. adjucant to drug therapy
found it - a babblet
bye everyone - hagd and stay safe
but which babblet??? lol
oh ok i got it too
I use purified distilled water in my neti pot. Temple, I hadn't thought about saline spray. Could try that --- kind of afraid of the spray getting near the sores. The Efudex is on the outside of my nose, and attacks in areas around it too. Thank you for the suggestions!
purified distilled works too
but if you'd seen the house episode where the patient DID have the water-borne nasties in his brain... *shudder*
i did not see your post when i suggested. sorry to hear
Saw that episode. Yuck
i am sure the neti pot manufacturers were THRILLED with that eppy
It's okay -- I appreciate your comment anyway ♥
well you just have to used distilled or boil it, i mean, it's not a BIG deal
have en8, anyone have the other?
yes - un8
not yet hurshy. Still mulling over that ta6 babblet
stick to the bottom two rows for that ta6
just got an email for a new festival posotion - corws counter! no gatherings above two fifty here
ah! thank you hurshy
such a lovely chog today
ok i tried the un6 without being able to see it (didn't have te6, didn't think it was actually here) thus proving that you should always try things even if you think they are not there
i mean un8 not un6
oops, i meant crowd counter. but since we will have a storm next week, i will pass.
lovely grid. down to 17 with only those un stats
i just hit 90%
wahoo hurshy! go go go!
crap i wish i could fix my two key.
two and at. at does not work either
hurshy, isn't "naff" a word in the UK?
yes
thank you
it means sort of silly, like pretending to be better than one is, yes?
well, sort of... more like out of style
oh ok
isn't tea grand
so the un8 is un+te6?
hello all
hi lindy
triofo YES
EN8 the way in
thank you
aurei
oops ,, bad cursor again
thanks
tare
oops
I am missing one Q. I am also missing one 7.
COINCIDENCE?
uh i have four 7s so definitely cannot help sj
I have 5 Q7s. Are there six, or am I on the wrong track????
you have them all SamanthaJoy
Ahhhhh. Ok, thanks.
33 left and stepping out for a while again.
fa7?
less bright
one who passes out
oh sorry, fa 7/44
one of my missing f's then
fa + my consc***** is clear, I did nothing wrong....
not fancrete - concrete in your favorite sports team colors
wow, thanks, pen
thanks pen! had written off putting three vowels in a row
yw....
fancrete would have the potential to be pretty obnoxious, carla
yep, my team colors are orange and maroon!
inure
oops, sorry
I feel like I'm onto something here, maybe I could make millions with this idea
I already had that one moo!
still need 3 other i's
where might one put fancrete, backyard? stadium foundations?
should've been a clue for a similar one hoke...if you don't already have it
garage floors?
oh yeah that would work
hmm, not en5
nope
oh, got it. ashes related?
yeah
I just need 1 4 today.
six 4s left for me...24 over all
I'm at 26 left
limping toward the finish line with 5 left lol
nice
funcrete could have patterns painted in
that costs extra
and then when it wears out, you can refuncrete
exactly!
also consider marketing fancrate
ooh moo clever
fancrate is a subscription box
uncrete would be a cement free version
or what you do when your team switches cities
or fancrate is a sports crate for your dog
yes, comes with a furnet on that fancrate
lol i need to invest in furnet
we need a furnet here for all the dog hair tumbleweeds
what about earcuffs?
and if you can have eyeteeth, why not earteeth?
ew gross
they do have those already, little jewelry cuffs that go on your upper ear
thought it might be a tool for rabbit police
none of this brainstorming is helping me find my 26 words
lol i was just thinking that, at 4 now
what do you need?
20 now here
all kinds of stuff, 1 + 1 i, 6 qu, 2 + 2 t, 3 + 2 a, 2 + 1 f, 1 (middle) n, 5 r
A,A,E,F,H,Q,Q,R,R,R,T,T,T,T,T,T,T,U,U for me
stuck on one of the un7/44 I have the one that means noisy
I think one of the i's is in7 but not seeing one
many of the qu words start with the five prefix (6 including just the word)
more un6, mary
ty hokie
there is an ae6 moo
got 1 q, thx
and an au6
ah yes, was missing the least obvious one
oh, change the first letter on the un7 noisy for another
yes
got the au6. what is the ae6 pt total?
ae 6/21
21
duh, those always trip me up
i just have ra7 and re6 left
ra7 is alternate of ra6
re6 might be the shark
hmm, what if I don't have ra6? it' an alternate of ra7? :D
also missing re6
yep...oh and is has 6 letters
found an re6/27
that's the one I have
alternative definition, to make fabulous again?
got ra6, 7
nice
do you have bottom a grayed?
I have ar5 and ae6
duh, another ar5
the easiest of the 3 words. LOL
aha fireworks!
well done!
ok, have found 6 qu 5 prefix words. still 2 q remain
thanks! what else do you guys need?
well, moo won't answer because he likes to find them himself. I still need 16, so too many.
maybe the middle n - I have ne4
fair enough! have a good day all
you too!
someone who watches the kids
poof
well, I tried several other words with that ending and no luck. gracias and adios
going to the list for last 15.
It's like the caretaker, but spelled like the Little Orphan
well, the list not super helpful to me today, still 7 left. break time.
It's first harvest for those of us who are Pagans. Otherwise known as Lughnasa. I have some honey oat bread in the oven.
Help with the un 8 - please.
let loose, Dianne
untie
*wonders what hokie is up to*
I love bread, but honey oat bread doesn't sound like my favorite. but I hope you enjoy, Molly.
Thank you so much.
was cluing Dianne, Dorens
oh.. sorry
hello, dorens
well, I think I looked up 6 of the last 7. happy fireworks to me. :D have a good day, y'all.
bye carla
tr 6/39, pls
tr + sounds like a word that means having an uneven or irregular surface...it involves a double consonant
Or a very expensive fungus, without the L
ty Molly
Ooh, honey oat bread sounds good to me. I bet it makes super French toast. I've been too busy (aka lazy) to make bread for a couple of weeks, but once the weather cools down, I'll put honey oat bread onto my to-do list.
cgecjubg'
that was supposed to be checking
changed my icon
woohoo, barely got fireworks, yay me.
guessing 87 since it's the weekend, haha - hoping for more.
