Phlooey. It's time I went and felt for the way to fix the colors. Went and made black background - then flue foreground. Friends call me tech illiterate with good reason
Didn't know that, broill. Haven Haven't looked in archines in years. Maybe decades. Time to check and correct the colors and then explore the game.

I'm back. there was a bit of an incident with Winston...guys were marking utilities in the front yard and he decided to roll around in the spray paint that wasn't dry! bright red paint all over so then I had to give him a bath. but we still walked.
poor Winston!
I guess it smelled bad enough for him to roll in
and I didn't even get a picture for his Winstagram because I didn't want it to dry any
good thing you were in a position to respond quickly....
yes, the doggy shampoo was already upstairs at the shower from the last time he rolled around in poop. he would not mind an outside bath right now but I would mind giving it.
is the 9 a compound word?
not really
ok, thanks...
no
but it has a suffix found in other sciency words
down to 9
I have really hit a wall. 27 still. 7 4's I can't find at all. haven't found either 7.

found a G and a T so now just eologists hates hat
Hello all. Anyone else having a rough go of it today?
hello, this is a tougher one for sure than we've had recently
ecologists actually do like hats.
need it to protect from the harsh equatorial sun.
47. bbl!
no, these are eologists, not ecologists
I usually get to at least half way then head over to Iron Sudoku before coming back to finish. I'm only about 40% and totally stumped.

ty cosmo
Down to 5
3 s's and 2 t's
ah, there's a t
rehi. still 17.
I need 3 S's from top and 1 T from top, 2 from bottom
could it be the same 3 s's? probably not
I need one T from the second row
all the S's from the top
probably an easy T then since I have them all from there
2x5, 1x6 and 1x9
4x4, 5x5, 6x6, 7x7 (j/k, 7x2)
:)
yep, was just missing a plural
3 S's to go
need one A from each, any guesses?
you missing 3 A's?
well one is an A7 :)
that was easy
there's an a6 that isn't common off the right A
sorry, no. 2 a's, one from each 2nd row. but see, the other A is a freebie gray.
there's also an a5 that is an italian word that can be easy to miss
oh, didn't even check :)
but if you're missing the 7...then a7 off the first one, a6 off the second one
do not have an a6 or a7, so you got it
if you want clues?
just the points and 2nd letter for now, P&TY
as7.28 and au6.27
got the 6 on first guess
awesome :)
is the as7 an everyday word?
nope
ok, I will take a clue then
not even an everyweek word
or everyyear for that matter
russian princess lost a syllable
gracias
yw
what's the other 7?
that's an everyday word off the s
we definitely are missing different s's because I have the 9
well maybe an every week word...unless you're a lawyer/judge
or a criminal who is prolific
I guess lawmakers and then staff are pretty familiar users of it too
and political/legal reporters too :)
well that's annoying I didn't see that
professors and students in certain fields also :)
2 o's left - any not in words? I keep trying to make that happen
have the two 6s?
I have one 6 that was in yesterday's too
there are two...almost the same
the others are all 4/5s
gave up and listed.
still looking for my last 3
well, there's an s I can't find with the list. moving on for now.
omg, I always miss that alt sp ig
this is ridiculous. still 4 I can't find.
need any clues?
he5 and 6
not a whole lot of options which is why it's frustrating I can't figure it out
finally got it
found the g. now just one S5 left. surely I can get it.
of course. a foreign food that enable included but excludes others.
:)
oh, the meat skewers?
yes
that was my first word today
haha
still 3 to go
what lengths again?
5,6,9
well, I can guess what the 9 is :D
no...really? ;)
there is an unusual to me 5/6 combo but you probably have that
I'm off the top s....not the middle one
nm, that's from the lower S
yeah
there is another set of unusual actually from the correct S that I just monkeyed this morning and don't know it.
no def in dictionary.com
so if I have to guess, i'll guess scottish. LOL
of course
well I'm sorry if that gave it away, but I have to point out that according to m-w dictionary, I am absolutely correct
no, haven't found it yet
doing multiple things :)
well, there's your clue - a set of scottish words
your unasked for clue
This is the most frustrating grid! I love your dog hokie.
I would love stats and clues for the 9 thanks.
aw thanks, jzw. he's a stinker!
been doing calls, still looking :)
how can there be 7 more S words
they're all made up
i surmised as much
is the left all GA?
why yes, hurshy, it is
Gs Garotted!
is4, is5, should parallel with ai5, ai6. after all, in a church you have an ai5, but on a plane, it's much narrower, so we SHOULD call it an ai6
gth instead of ght is driving me a little nuts
if inly is a word why isn't outly a word?
One of those inexplicable Enable mysteries.
yep
slut
:O
OMG - sorry :D Not name calling.
lol i know
just, of all the words to type in chat by accident
Leave it to me ...
lol
had my annual checkup today. does anyone else like having a doctor who is overweight, because then you don't feel AS bad admitting that you haven't been exercising much lately?
lol! Yes, my new doctor is at least as overweight as I am. She's a regular doctor, but also trained in integrative medicine, so she's very holistic in her approach. She is gently encouraging about the exercise, and I never feel guilty.
nice
LOL, I'm glad I checked in and saw ori slut-shaming
hi hokie :)
hi!
my BP was fine tho, that was the main thing. it was high on friday when i went to the dentist to get my tooth pulled. and i was like, not only are you about to pull my tooth, you just showed me the list of everything that could go WRONG, including a fractured jaw, so what do you exPECT my BP to do?
I agree! My BP is usually on the low end, but goes up at the dentist's office.
i had to sit and meditate and think about Rilla purring on my chest to bring it down enough that they could actually do the procedure
one time mine was so high at the girl doctor they wouldn't let me leave after the appt.
I def. have white coat syndrome
but I also have high BP.
i don't always have white coat syndrome but, yeah, they really should email you the list of what could go wrong like a week before the procedure so you have time to be horrified and get over it before you go in
{{{ gentle hugs }}} totally understand. I've been known to bring a guided meditation tape and earphones to my dentist office. I also practice deep breathing.
i have a high pulse rate but BP not so bad. and i've had high cholesterol too though i don't know what it is now
but at my dentist the last time it was like 100/50. I said, I think there's something wrong with your checker. They use a wrist one, which are not accurate at all. the hygienist said "yours is always low here" and I said, yeah, because something is wrong with your checker.
lol
would anyone care to fill me in on the stats for the 9 and the 7s?
my cholesterol was high at my last checkup. tried to switch to med. diet but it's hard for me to stick to. I just need to lose the pandemic lbs and I think it will go back down.
st9/60, st7/32, as7/28
st7, as7
st 7 and 9 related?
no
got the st7
They do start with the same first 4 though
thanks, got the 9 now!
i feel like the as7 must be weird...
oHO i got it
Do you want a clue?
i remember we had that in a grid sometime within the last few months
Good for you!
i am having SO much trouble not prodding the empty spot on my gums where the tooth got pulled, and then it ends up hurting more as a result
it's like "you are an adult, why can you not manage this simple little act of self-control??"
lol! I've had teeth pulled, and I know exactly what you mean!
but at least i have the nicest kitty in the whole wide world on my chest
isn't a tuile a thing in food? like a crystallized sugar thing or something?
They are such a comfort.
yes, thin crisp cookie, google confirms
well not google, bc i use ecosia now
I believe those are spelled with 2 ls.
no, just the one
there's to5, fabric with scenes, which people always mix up with tulle, the tutu fabric, and tuile, the cookie. apparently there IS also tuille, a part of a suit of armor
Good to know :)
not to be confused with twill...something a bird might do :)
i was so good at the doctor's office. they have two check in desks and each one had a sign on its window saying, "you may check in at both desks" and i bit my tongue instead of saying "i don't want to have to check in twice, that should say 'you may check in at either desk'".
still stuck with these last three
twill is a fabric thing too, a kind of weave
maybe they want you to check in twice
i think what birds do is trill
oh yeah, my mistake :)
they DON'T, because they didn't make me check in at both desks
the point is, i really really really wanted to tell them to fix it but i controlled myself
well they said "can" so maybe it's optional
I corrected one of my colleagues for using "mute point" the other day
he was silent on the subject
ok so you think if i had gone to the other one and said i am here to check in at this desk too because it said i may check in at both desks, they would have said, ok great and re-checked me in?
hahaha
perhaps...they may want to offer a more thorough check-in service for those who are a little bit more control-minded
I DOUBT IT
that's all
At my dermatologist's office they have two check-in stations. They carefully and thoughtfully placed stick-on shoe prints to indicate six feet between patients in line. However ... the distance between the two lines is about 2 feet! lol!
oh dear
that sounds like a "you only had one job" situation
Yes. I wait until no one is in line before I check in :)
ooh, got the 9
2 to go
ah, found them...fw
congrats, moo!
well got the starting letters for the 9, and saw a clue for one of the 7s...otherwise a self-complete
have jo4 and 5 combo, what is the third J
Angelina's last name minus a vowel
ty
third column A has what besides car/cars?
au6/27

or rather obscure 6
ty, points helped with monkeying for sure!
was your last 2 the scottish ones, moo?
2 el5, 2 et4 what E am i missing?
eo
eo6
ah yes, ty
yes, last two were scottish ones
took me a long time to find those last three
well, you did, so well done
I should add I knew they were scottish :)
you're so smart
well, he knew because I told him :P
hmm, why does the fact that i just heard a siren make me want to order pizza, what an odd trigger
fw for me and I'm out. Found out this morning I qualify to get the COVID vaccine now, so I need to call my doctor's office to see where I go. Happy babbling!
nice!!
lucky! ttfn ch1212
still quite a few people ahead of me

Nope
didn't think so but had to check :D
aha that's the O done now

1 Le, 2 Li, 1 Lu, 2 Ly, the rest Lo?
oho, no, there are 3 Li

anybody around to clue the ga6?
No, I am here scratching my head over it.
light in the late 19th century....like on the street...

oh right! or what we've been these past four years politically
firewords, thanks pen and lickety and all cluers
thanks pen.
yw...
just monkeyed the 9 for fireworks.
congrats....
Is that what you get when you chisel the Babble scores in stone?
i just did, too, lol....
I'm so glad tomorrow is Inauguration Day. Perhaps we can then move on from all the "we hate Trump" comments tp something more positive.
Congrats, pen.
i hope we can put Trump aside and move on as well....
Or to something
ty, but i am not done... still have seven to find...
And seven you will find. These grids never defeat our Pen.
