PA6 = person who likes the pope (and plural)
te5 = lukewarm
ah, thanks mael
ah, thx matty
ty matty for the te word
2 pa6 for the price of 1!
Thanks for the unit of distance - I didn't have that
i am not getting the distance measurement

ooh, just finished the 7 without trying. that never happens.
17 left and each word is like pulling teeth. Happily, I have all the sevens - still missing four sixes though
29 left here, still working on first pass. 6 6's left.
ok, 24 left after 1st pass. feels crazy to finish the c's without any trouble.
Going to the list. Let's see how many no brainers I missed
good luck
And already - one no brainer plural. Sigh
Two no brainer plurals
yes, I will go through my list before using the list to check for those
Three no brainer plurals. BIG SIGH
are they s plurals? there are a bunch from the bottom S where the singular is from the upper S.
Yep. Including a four letter where I was sure I'd already entered it but hadn't
All done. Have a great day all
bye! now I'm stuck on 17
nope, 16

i started about a half hour ago or so
hey nan
ty hoie
hokie
2 left! both 5's
well the 8 is easy enough to find
ru!
hi ruru
I'm going to have to break and come back later for these last 2. just not able to see or monkey.
what are the stats hokie
?
sepeak for yourself, ru -- I never find them without a call
ah - rodney dangerfield
It is interesting who thinks of Aretha and who thinks of Rodney
<--- in the aretha camp
aretha franklin?
thought she was a singer
there is only ONE Aretha nan:D
don't know the assciation between her and the 8
re8 was her big hit
Rodney built his entire routine on it
oh -- was never a fan
*passes out*
don't like the screamers and the moaners
Screamer and moaner? Aretha Franklin? She is The Queen of Soul. Wow.
Oh.. i Like both of those :D
yes, well - I was thinking on stage, while you are obviously in a different locale
i'm not even THAT big a fan of hers, but i like and re8 her well enough that such a characterization bothers me!
i guess i mean i re7 her lol
I wasn't referring to personality, hursh, but to performance style -- and she isn't the only one
that is what i was referring to as well
i don't really know anything about her personality
i wonder if people feel similarly bothered when i say that i don't like Meryl Streep's acting
I don't like jazz for much the same reason -- it's fine when the melody is kept somewhat intact, but when it becomes just a bunch of noise and notes with everyone in the ensemble doing their own thing and obviously not listenting to each other or making any attempt to blend in to anything with any semblance of a tune --- then it is terrible to my ear
Hurshy have you seen Anne With An E on Netflix? If so, what did you think?
i liked the first episode well enough, but after that it started to veer way off from the books, so i did not continue with it
I have a problem with the girl playing Anne. Not at all the way I imagined her.
i feel like nobody ever is the way one imagines a book character :)
that's how i felt about Gilbert, particularly, from the Megan Follows version
morning all
I'm never sure why a person feels like they need to re-write a well-loved story that was a best-seller
same here. i mean i guess sometimes things get left out just because of time, but, CHANGING things, yeah
I like the actor cast in Outlander but he is not Jamie Fraser
Hi all. Clue for re7/32, please?
if something crosses something else again, i guess it re7 it?
putting pieces back together in surgery
Well he may not be Jamie Fraser, but he is very nice to look at
no, i see it just means cutting something OUT
that's why I said I like him, just not what I pictured when reading
ty :-)
down to 50 -- back after breakfast
You are correct Hursh. I don't think that word means what Carla thinks it means : D
well it didn't mean what i thought it meant either, so, guess we were in the same boat there initially
doesn't it mean to remove a piece of something?
yes. i had initially said i thought it might be to cross something again, which was incorrect
cut out (tissue or part of an organ)
the "re" in it is not acting as an "again" prefix i guess in this one
oooh, pa6/24, space word!
I asled earlier for the pa 6/24 and got the second one. Clue for the first, pls
earlier clue given pa6, person who likes the Pope and pl
ty Biltong
Actually she got the measure of distance one first
yw, bichon
i have si 5 ending in n and i need a clue for the other si 5 pls?
yes, si5! you say when you're enthused
Often followed by Bob
ty, hurshy
*Doesn't want to break it to Hurshy that people don't say that anymore
Well, not people under 60
well it works as a clue even if people don't say it anymore lol
"people" don't tend to say "shall" anymore either, but i do, cause i like it
i have no idea
ok MLF, it ends with a double vowel
I'm guess the things you say are uniquely your own, Hursh
ty
howdy again. had to take Winston out.
still 2 left!
megan follows and anne shirley are my two favorite anne's
BBL. Thanks for the clues :-)
I've probably said yes si5 bob and Im' under 60
but I'm also a dork
anyone want to guess my last D5?
hokie do you want us to respond to that?:D
water coming out of a spigot?
no need
nope
insp5?
see if I can knock off any of these last 40
And therein, Carla explains the reason someone under 60 would use that phrase'
there are 2 d5's that use the inventive pt
moo, care to guess my last D5 or P5?
yes, i have both those, thx nan
exactly, molly
still have a D left
and I have 10 P's remaining
well, you're no help
i have 9 p words to find
Inventive past tense?
she thinks it's american pt, but I think it's british english
you know, -t for -ed
missing one d also but don't know if it is a 5
Oh, that is definitely not American
I don't assign a nationality to it, carla -- just that it is not proper english
we've discussed it before, I thought nan was saying americans did it, but I guess I was misremembering
4 d words to go
almost there ML
oh forgot about the other p 's
mool nope
I feel like I have tried every possible 5 letter combo for both D and P
which p carla?
hokie is it di or dp?
left
21 to go
what do you mean, mlfan? there's a dp?
i mean dr sorry
no idea, I'm not on the list
i have two dr 5/12's
thought you had all the p's but one
I do. I need 1 D5 and 1 left P5
I have 4 dr5s so far
only one di5
same here mool
ok, I don't see a di5 so I will try that, thx
ty mool -- must be the d I am missing
oh yeah, that was what I was missing
just found it
sounds like a prefix for a medical condition
I have no idea how I still haven't typed it yet
yeah, me neither
are you talking about the all-encompassing medical condition word?
or a specific one?
found, ty again
no, it's specific to alcoholism
normally has a word for "out of control person" at the end of it
so, not sirrhosis (sp?) then
ah no
more mental than physiological
Sirrhosis is the knight of alcoholic livers
I must have been rendered brain dead at some point this morning. reached my max.
okay, ends in a preposition :)
hmm, can someone remind me what a preposition is
"a joining word"
isn't that a conjunction
oh yeah duh
lol
conjunction junction what's your function
preposition normally proceeds a noun or pronoun....had to look it up
for instance if you sat on the chair...the on is a preposition
missing 2 r's -- wonder if they are related
possibly...
I have 8 (I think) combos
missing 2 r's off the bottom to
last two r's were a combo too
I think I counted 11 related R's
11 sets
there you go, trust hoke
I missed two off the bottom, didn't scroll down far enouhg
11 to go...5 of them are Ps
which P?
the left P
8 sets of r's here, but only missing 2 words
found one
guess it depends on how you define a set
depression. still trying to think of a mental alcohlic condition that would start a di word
0h forgot the bottom r -- missing 3 there
yeah, some that I think are sets others may not
want a different clue hoke?
I should probably just look it up, but if you want to try
ends in a vowel
I am sure I have tried everything possible that ends in a vowel, but will try again
well the word is really not a word...meaning it normally wouldn't stand alone
but basically it's a slang way of referring to the whole word
perhaps that might help with the vowel
do you want a really basic clue?
I think if someone just would tell me the 3rd letter that would be great
begins with what goes with chips
ok, trying everything now
finally! I swear I tried that
thx all
now 1 P5 left
not getting anywhere - off to the list
10 left here
4 P's 4 S's an a and a T
oh, well found 2 S's
and the T
er
found my A...this is going well
yeah, I got down to 2 so you should be able to finish. I think I got 4 inadvertently from the chat
oh
well got the second letter on the di so far
the s's were a struggle at first and then they just all came at once
yeah, the words I've been missing so far weren't hard for the most part
yeah, the 4 I got from the chat were mostly regular words
ah, there's my last 7
actually 5, was forgetting a pl
4 to go
2P and 2S
2x4 a 5 and a 6
still 1 P :D
1 S down
I may have found your p
do tell
Well this is going to be a bit lateral...
but perhaps if you were to describe public reaction speak, you might call it p5
lol, not my day for that
reaction-relations
wow, did not plug my brain in this morning
I'm blaming the covid shot -- wipes out part of our brain
still trying to get an appointment here
I'm not sure moo's had one
I'm just blaming getting older for me
going by age here, mool -- the one time when old age is a plus!
I think I have the word you're saying moo, but it's part of a set, so I'm not sure if that's what you mean or not
*which, by the way, is most likely the real cause of my disolving brain
aha! got it! TADA
and I did it all by myself!
hehe - thanks to the village
wtg carla
*!*~*!* also thanks to the village and lickety
an italian plural with a very specific musical definition. now I'm singing row row row your boat.
wtg hoke!
still 2 left here
was it the pr5?
well, I'm glad my last 2 were words I didn't know but I still don't know how I didn't monkey them, knowing they were 5's
what are you missing mool?
yes, it was a pr5
a P and an S
upper S?
yes
missing a 4 and a 6
I will keep my guess to myself since I know you want to find it
ok, my guess was wrong
oh, but an S may have been my last 4, so could be that
there is a po 6 that makes no sense whatsoever
yeah, I have a guess for a P6
I think I know the one, nan. I also thought it was ridic
se 4 - branch of a clan
but that's not the one I was guessing
yeah, have that one
it's part of a combo
which, mool?
I think it's an S4 that goes backward
the s4
in fact there are two s4s that vaguely been part of a group :)
I have one po6
I predict you will find the s4
group(s) of like thinkers
I think it's a pa6
parts of minutes
no, he said he has that
yep, was pa6
oh - thought he said he had the branch of a clan
should've watched more scifi
I di have the branch of clan
how about the pattern for a tartan?
yeah, I thought that was a made-up word for star wars. that was one I got from the chat
no, it's a real term
I foretell he will see it
it's I think how much distance light travels in a second
I have that one :)
ok, then IDK
found it
are you sure it is an se 4?
which one?
oh, it was the one you clued hoke
I though you were thinking of the foreteller
aha! the scot version
yeah
that was the one I meant, I forgot the other was there
was just getting ready to type it was scottish
well that's fw
thx for the help :)
well done
you've lost me -- which se 4 were you missing? the only two scottish ones I see are the one that is the clan branch and the tartan pattern
it was the sp4
tartan fabric is not plaid
oh -- thought he was looking for an se 4
I'm not sure what the tartan fabric is
nobody said it was, bichon
not the fabric -- the pattern for the weavee
* weave
ah, a babblet I never knew the meaning of
alrighty then, gotta go. good babbling with y'all.
me too -- hagd everyone - hope you get that shot soon, mool
All right everyone. Line up quick. Nan wants us all vaccinated. I'm getting a t-shirt that says I GOT JABBED BECAUSE OF NAN!!!
I'll be first in line when they let me :)
I've had both!
that's great!
Yes!
MA opens up vaccinations to everyone over 16 on april 19
Great!
Mael, your profile pic is soooo cute!!
thank you! it's a couple years old, they are much bigger now. My daughter is almost 7 and the little dude is 5 :)
Aaawww
14 left, haven't listed, pretty stuck now though
oh, nevermind, 10 left
but can you actually get an appointment, is the question
here? it'll be the thunderdome for a bit. I might wake up at 4am and see if I get lucky
idk why they do not have waiting lists. in my state there are 4 pharmacy stores that "have" vaccines, plus state-run clinics, and when you try to get an appointment with any of these, it just says "no appointments available". so it's like, what, check back... when? like, there is zero info. idk why they wouldn't make waitlists so that things could proceed in an orderly fashion.
I know, it feels designed to maximize the difficulty for those booking appointments
I got my father in law one a month back and it involved two and a half hours of refreshing the same page every twenty seconds and a browser add on to autofill forms
I'm missing one D, one R and 3 Ps. Sigh.
2 5s and 3 6s. I was very much hoping I could finish without listing, it feels like so much more of an accomplishment haha
you finished mael?
I think it is ridiculous that there are no waiting lists for the vaccinations. This whole process is being handled very poorly. I have heard of people having to drive two hours to get their shots.
mael, I can guess your D & P, both 5s
molly, are you MD or VA? I think you are MD. I think VA has been a mess, but some parts must be doing good because they are high in the list of vaccinated people.
ra
I am in Maryland. And I wasn't commenting on my state so much as what I have been hearing from people in several states.
my mom now informs me that there is GOING to be a waiting list in our state rolling out sometime soon, maybe next week. so that's better!!
Cool!
i've thought it was rather unfair that you get free donuts for being vaccinated when like, not everyone is even able to. as if like you need a reward anyway. getting the vaccine IS a reward, why should you get free donuts on top of that when the rest of us want the vaccine too
not that my body needs donuts anyway lol
ugh, don't you hate it when you forget to enter plurals
resect
I think it's unfair I can't eat delicious doughnuts due to celiac disease.
and my county health dept. has a waiting list, I got on it before I found an appt at a pharmacy.
and my friend here got hers from a walgreens waiting list
sorry you can't have donuts hoke
PS - the free Krispy Kremes are for every day until the end of the year. So, it's only really unfair if you plan on going every single day. I think it's a nice incentive program. Oddly some people don't want the vaccine.
yeah but the people who don't want the vaccine... are they really going to be swayed by free donuts?
I don't know, but I think it's a nice gesture by a company in a horrible time, and I can't believe there was a backlash. People just want to complain about everything.
I got my free KK donut. I didn't even need to show my vax card. They just scanned me for the Bill Gates microchip.
the youngest and I went on the way home from our shots and the girl on the drive-thru speaker was like, "there's 2 of you in the car? and you both have cards?" but then she didn't really ask to see them at the window but I had them in my hand so I was like, here's the cards!
and then I had to smell how wonderful they smelled while he ate them
I have said for years if I could ever eat gluten again, KK or pizza would be the first thing.
Free doughnuts are good no matter what the reason. And I commend Kristy Kreme for motivating people to get vaccinated. Now, where is the free beer? : D
i wasn't REALLY complaining, just you know, being silly. but LOL @dauber
Does Carla have Celiac disease? Who knew?
Reading about the difficulties some of you are having in getting your shots with appointments and distribution--we have the opposite problem where the appointment process is quick, but the supply is terrible. Our distribution in town is actually set up as a two lane drive-through. The drive-through is seamless; you go the the entrance at the local legion, show your I.D, then you are told to get in lane one or two, you drive up to the kiosk, show your I.D again, hold your arm out the window, and boom, you are done. They just ask that you park for 15 minutes to get a final check before going home.
Just need more vaccine is all :(
free beer? you know I can't drink that, molly!
crossy, I think we are having trouble getting appts. because there aren't vaccines available.
FW! i had to list w 17 left, but the sheer number of stupid misses was maddening
well done!
wow fun grid - first pass and 31 left
top and bottom row greyed - 26 to go.

Hey harry :-)

Omg tonight's super moon!!!
hope you're not affect by the flooding une?
I think Une is gone, ru
guess so
I'm still here.....a little hail damage on the roof but lucked out..... recordbreaking rain and minpin lost his mind in all the thunder and lightning!
Is that the one that is heading to Augusta tomorrow and Wed.?
My furbaby does the same thing.
Glad to hear you're OK Une.
I have 4 left and I'm going to watch the news. Back at the flip.
Tx origami :-)
