only one 7 so far li7/28 bbl
I still don't have any 7s
and I played at the flip so know most of the stats
can anyone clue the an 8 for me? then i can get the 9. ty
Just clued them, mkg

I think I rem. there is a ca7, ce7, li7, in7, & da7, but I could be wrong
just found li7 - distance between 2 points + consumed food
You have a good memory, Carla.
well, it just depends
ty got it.
well, I am stuck with 27 left. going to the list now so I can get stuff done.
good luck.
lol, so far not good
Good morning word searchers. How goes the hunt?
only found one word on the list so far that I should have gotten on my own. some weird ones today.
Hello, Molly.
I will nominate da7 as a weird one
what, you didn't know indian or burmese mafia?
just found my missing j - ok, I should have gotten that
Thanks for that 7. It was my last 7
have found them all but in7
in + change copy with a vowel at the end.
thx, would have never gotten
omg, just found another I should have had - large body of water
LOL!
still 8 after listing. BBL
That reading backwards thing will get you every time. I had a priest for a math teacher in 8th grade who could write backwards. Freaky.
Good morning, all.
Beware of freaky priests, Molly.
Indeed Judi. However this guy was one of the good ones. Other than the freaky backward writing thing.
There are those who can write backwards and forwards at the same time (opposite hands). Now THAT is really freaky.
Interesting, but not something to put on your resume. : D
Oh, I don't know. That might make you a valuable multi-tasker.
<< Can barely write forward.
This game isn't about the words you know, it's about the words you remember.
Very true Bea. I suspect those who whip off all the big ones at the flip have photographic memories.
I'm off to get dinner in the slowcooker...Until next time...
hello all
hello
Howdy :-)
middle column y stats pls?
ye5/16
clue pls phae?
there is a ye 4 from the middle column....
to give way in traffic
ty phae
sorry...that was yi...glad you found it
np phae
phae middle column i was blank
an9 is a pl?
try ye 3....
an 9 does have a pl ending....
it's kind of a diagonal word.....top left to bottom right....
so starts with the first bet of a card/poker game?
yes...
got it
both
hit a temporary wall....(I am an optimist)....bbl to find my last 40....
wait till you hit the next wall at 17
I went to the list and still stuck at a wall with 8
i'm thinking about the list on this one
I think I went to the list at 27 and have only had 2 easy ones I missed.
just c's and d's to go.. but not seeing much
do you have co6? that is one I can't find.
yes.. to have two people overview a newspaper article
ah, thanks
couldn't go that way
missing 2 d's, both 5's
finally monkeyed one
ok.. now just d's.. still missing one 4 so that's depressing
finally saw the other one, that's a word that shouldn't have been so hard.
it's gotta be an easy one, ru
i'm going to the list.. too stuck
ok, there's another regular one that gave me trouble. now 1 T, 2 A's, and a darned Y that I've tried everything.
all 6's, my nemeses
i know which one you need ye6
Y + slippery fish +_ not out
Yeah, put on your kilt, Carla
yes
thanks, ru
oh, a scottish word? I used to hang around some scots a lot and know some of the words, but most of the enable ones I'm not even sure they know.
i need to bang my head against a wall.. i missed so many easy ones
not sure how I can't find ti6 when I know the 3rd letter and the point total doesn't leave a lot of options
Tut, tut, self abuse will not make you any better at finding words
We have that ti6 frequently. I think it is a moth
is it what a can is made out of?
well, I was trying all the sp. of the mammal tenrec just in case
those are the first 3
looked it up!
now 2 a6 left that I guess I'll just look up.
of course, if it's not scottish words it's chemisty
chemistry. I saw my spell check change it when I hit enter but I guess it didn't take.
last word - mental sloth or boredom. what this grid caused today. now to get busy again! TTFN
oops, missed hokie today
haHA not going to miss that da6/24 today after all the trouble it gave us in cluing the other day
Oh, but now it has the snazzy ending too
thanks molly
name that proper noun! capital of Egypt
Lydia?
no...
sounded good... ;o)
hi folks - immediately started singing john prine, 'lydia hid her thoughts like a cat...'
lol
with all the scottish things that count, i'm surprised we can't do "airly" for "early"
i tried it... ;o)
I am heading out again to get some lunch....bbl....bye all....
i just found the 8 and 9, wooooohoooooooooooo
Oh Lydia my Lydia, have you seen Lydia, Lydia the tattooed lady
And Cairo for the ding ding ding
ding ding ding!!!
name that fictional noun! odorless, tasteless, and among the more deadly poisons known to man
hi all. only have li7 help pls
i have ca7 (a past tense of what i only knew as a noun - rocks marking a spot) and the da7 that molly helped me get a lil bit ago, if you scroll down
ty for ca7
Morning all, just getting started on this one
hiya mool, we missed hokie :(
oh, hoke left already?
yes :(
I often miss people here to be honest, can't always get on in the morning
ah well, such is life
good morning everyone :)
morning nan, happy Thursday
good evening, :)
50 to go
ah, there's the 8 and 9
wish my memory still worked -- can't remember a da 7 from the other day
it was only a 6 the other day, today we get the 6 AND add an ending for the 7
well there was that 6 letter one that I clued for the rope ring game :0
this cluster of e and y is doing a number on my ey4! lol
oh - I remember the rope ring game thing but stll don't remember what it was -- didn't recognize the game then either
normally spelled with a qu
oh - yes -- the light bulb went off!
thank heaven
nice, all you have to remember is that it's an indian bandit ;)
and you get a bonus today, because there's a 7 off the same stem
india indian, not american indian
once in a while hurshy --- it is really hard to adjust to not being as sharp as you used to be
25 to go, and got to jump on a call...back later, time permitting
i bet - but i am legit thankful you got it :D
name that proper noun! Arwen's father
oh, actually i guess that's only a phantom proper noun, oops
phantoms: anything ending in -er
90%!
hmm, anyone have ad6?
how many points hurshy?
27
and it comes BEFORE the 4
the mine entrance?
uh, yes
had to look that up but yes :D
a + lion home and ends like what LP's are made of
ahh, thanks molly
ty molly
We have that one a lot, but my brain refuses to remember chemistry stuff
ditto
i was the top student in my chemistry class in HS, by a long way, but i still didn't feel like i really understood it! it always seemed to me that chemists had a secret store of knowledge of all the exceptions that i did not have access to. and i had doodled "i hate chemistry" in my notebook, and when my poor teacher saw it, he was so hurt. "Miss Hurshy!!!" he said in shock and horror.
my brain never knew any chem stuff in the first place
phantom: indicate
need one more s -- is there an s 7 or more than one s 6?
nm - found it
no S7, not sure about the 6 cause i too am missing one S
was missing an s 5
* you should have 3 of them
yeah i think we were missing the same one
probably
now i am stuck on a ti6/21 that is between what a fork is and very small
aha, there it is!
all done
grats hurshy - 61 left here - will list soon I think
dy 5/16 please?
a kind of fiber
add a consonant to the previous 4
but not at the end jeff?
much better clue..I'm not too good at clueing
ah - found it - ty jeff
any clues for the Ca7?
pt the pile of stones
oohhh dhooy, ty Nan!
shoot, LOL I was going the wrong way with it
*!*~*!* any other clues wanted before I leave?
congrats!!!
hagd everyone - stay safe :)
fireworks! any clues wanted?
cojito sounds like a new dish at taco bell
No, it is a mojito with 2 straws
I don't think I've ever had a mojito
denile ain't just a river in egypt
34 to go - bbl!
in7 pls
Not out + mark up copy + vowel
ty Molly
afternoon all
hi Mool
hey lyn, happy Friday to you
aww - baby kangaroos for us
Bye
the baby kangaroo took me wayyyyyy too long, and I might have had to use the list for it.
crikey
you said it
indeed
It was my last j too
I don't even know what the other j means and found it right away
oh, there are 3 today, the other jo
it's a spanish dance apparently
I just saw. which means I've been saying it wrong in my head all this time
and you switch the two vowels and you get a jet assisted take off
oh yeah, didn't know what that meant either
neither did I
but now I do :)
that would be kind of an amusing clue
oh, you're looking for something that means a jet assisted takeoff
LOL
Do you need me to spell it out for you?
LOL at me, did not even get that at first. surprised ru hasn't complained about it
heh
scuba, radar, laser...does he complain about those too?
probably (trying to bring ru out of the woodwork)
how's your word search going, moo? I will bow down to your word expert-ness if you finish today.
14 to go
the second column has 8 of my remaining, with the C holding 4 of them
I have picked up a couple of words inadvertantly from chat though
I think c & d were my toughest ones
a 6 and two 7s from chat...the 6 and 7 related
have just one d remaining
I mentioned indian mafia this morning and bea was like, oh thanks. I would never know that
yeah...it's become popular around here lately :)
I must've missed that because I don't recall it
do you have 3 dy? there was a d5 that took me forever even though it's not weird.
(not dy5, de5)
ooh, thunderstorm time
I have two de5
ok, that is all
I think I might have the one you're thinking of, which means I''m missing an even easier one
li6/24 please
do you have 2 de6>
yes
peri, a li6 of praises or a li6 of complaints
I could you a lot of excuses why I can't clue it
hmm, you must be missing an easy one, moo
ty carla
you said there were three de5 right
ty carla
there is one that goes in a circle backward that describes a time frame, like for a newspaper
no, just 2 de5
ah
three dy words?
yes
k
13 to go
it was the dy5
do you have 2 weird versions of the pile of stones?
I have one pile of stones
oh, the verb...weird
always figured it to be a noun
was just about to say they're trying to make it a verb
and an adj
ah, found another 6...11 to go
ah, now an easy 4
you have all the 7's?
missing one
there is a co6 that gave me a lot of trouble/had to get clued
to help someone with a paper?
yes
yep, have that one :)
kinda related 7 starting with another letter
was one of the prefixes I started looking at when I saw how many c's I still letter
the i one?
yes
that's the other word I saw the clue for
another 4...down to 9
nice
still have three 4s to go, probably should get those to narrow the search
wow, yeah, I think I only had 2 left when I went to list and one was the baby, so you should get them easy
there's one...
did you finish a?
still two of those left
A,A,C,C,I,L,S,T
there's one I had to look up
the ad5?
or the ae5
if you have the i7 you should get the rest, though there is an i4 I'm not sure I know but guessed it
ac6
oh the vinegar
or rather vinegar sounding :)
I was all over ad5 this time!
well, there are 2, this one means sloth, not the animal but laziness
yeah, likewise
ad5 - fool me 5 times. :D
I feel that way about ciao
I should just start every board that has a c in it with ciao
I mean I almost always find jiao and the somewhat similarly spelled word that's in this grid, but ciao eludes me for some reason
i now try the needlecase and the mountain every time I find an et - one hit today
lol, if I wasn't already done, I'd be trying ciao right now. I always miss that.
evening all!
another 4 drops off the list
well the volcano I always think of as a palindrome for the bet
so if you see the bet, type the volcano...two for one
edile/elide is another in that vein
sedile/elides too for that matter
tenon/nonet
aye
hi dan
anagrams too...if you find one of artisan, antiars or tsarina
then there's the grandaddy...antsier, nastier, stearin, nastier, retains, retsina, retinas, stainer
you get that playing scrabble tho
tsar is another one i'm blind to, so tsarina...fuggedaboutit
tsar/star/rats/arts/tars....
after a while you stop thinking of them as words
still, we all have our blind spots
in boggle like games I don't do as well with boards with multiple eses and for whatever reason, -shes gives me particular problems under time pressure
well have 10 minutes to close out some of these last 7, otherwise that'll be where it ends for me today
did you get both ac6?
oh, no...just one
in4/6?
in 4/6 yes
li5/16?
yes
se5?
I have 2 se5s
ti6 I had to look up
ah, but there are three
got ti6
there are 3 se5
tx for the se5
posturpedic :)
2 ti6?
yep
or Booth from Bones
don't watch much TV unfort
t4 tuesday?
yep
did you finish 4s?
ah, there's the other ac6
person who makes clothes?
A,C,C,I,L
If I had an O, I could have CALICO
ad6?
ah, no
ca6?
ad6 done
yep, got ca6
x3?
ah, there's the i
ah, have two c6s
is there a ca5/6 combo?
speed babble
what I normally play :)
or maybe 2 c7s
not really another ca5/6 if you have the pile of stones
ca7 you have. there is a ce7
ah
there it is
2 left...c and l...5 and 6
do you have li4/6 and alt. sp. li5/14
yeah have that
so must be l5, because we already figured I'm missing ca6
you have the L5 dance? I think I already asked that
yes
although I had to look up the definition
also li5 that rhymes with woman's name - sam & ***** from cheers. (I watch too much tv)
yeah, have that
it's the ol' woody vine
is there two l6s?
ok 40 left
oh well, I'm going to go now...already over due...thanks for the help
oh, an li5 which appears to be a portmanteau of sorts
ciao! :-)
no prob, have a good night
