Morning all! Does anyone have stats, please, for the second i (eye) in the top row? The one in the middle?

oh, peachy. Thanks!
What's morewords?
Are they all related to each other?
(Found the six)
the 6 and 7 are related
the 6 and 7 are related
Joy morewords.com is a site that helps find words if you don't know all the letters
I cannot find the first ma5. Can anyone help?
more words is a site where you can find lists of words starting with the two letters. i type in the two letters possible, then ask for the list of all words which start with them. then scroll down and you can get lists in order of the number of letters in the words.

Thx!
dmf's alternate list is not working for me. https://tinyurl.com/24yyawxy

Maybe it's not active anymore

Ding ding ding! Amelu wins a dozen roses and a box of chocolates.
but they'll be delivered in 7-11 business days
This is weird when I click on Lickety's clues it gives a different puzzle :-(
maybe clear your cache? is it yesterday's?
Today's isn't available yet.... Right?
it's yesterdays grid
Clues are in Molly's profile
Thanks Une
No prob!
I think this is todays grid

Hi all. Clue for w word please.
wy4
Ty got it
Now onto the 8s and 7we s. Stats welcome.
Clues are in Molly's profile at 8.26
Why isnt xray a word???????
because it has a hyphen
Ok
Cant get mollys profile. Darn. Oh well.
go to who's online tab and scroll down to her name
It's right here
And like Hokie said, all you have to do is go to Who's Online and scroll.
There really needs to be a HOW TO section for this place.
Especially for posting icons
Ty molly
just clicked help to see what's on there, very basic
I need more help for the io words. I have tried so many but not getting them.
Name that proper noun...Herman Melville's lesser-known novel
there are some clues at 9:14, 9:15 for io
Any help with 7s or 8s welcome.
no idea, molly
Right saw those chemical clues. But still not getting the words. Sorry
Melville.....hmmmmm
those are the only ones I have, actually trying to find words here myself.
I did a non-chemical clue at 9:15. If that doesn't help, I'm not sure how else to clue, sorry.
Ty but nothing is helping this for me. Sorry. Oh well.
Oh i got it. And got the mis word! Ty
Got the 7 and 8. Ty very much
Alas, no prize winner. I bet there would be if Hurshy was here.
yep
I was so stuck on it being iod that is didnt see the other.
Ty
I haven't read a lot of the classics or authors
thank you broll and thanks for copying the list molly.. had to reach for it today
so you're saying it wasn't easy today?
I think bea thought it was ;)
couple of tiles got the best of me hokie
still 75 to go here
got my first swim in yesterday here.. 82 degrees here with a little wind
28 left, listed to find out I still seem to miss plurals
It must be nice to have a backyard pool to enjoy. My son would love it, he loves swimming. He can't wait for the pool to open this year since it didn't last year.
we have a heated pool but haven't turned on the heat for it. keeps raining buckets.
Aloy, sounds about right :D
our neighbor is putting in solar heating for his pool .. envious. We don't heat ours in the winter, $$$
yeah, it's pretty pricey, ours is gas
lol, just typed remidies like I was on to a big word
electricity here
well, came to a screeching halt at the bottom here, 63 left. didn't even get half the H
The pool I have near my house is massive. Cannot heat it up as it is the sea haha!
haha, zooz.
when does it get warm enough for swimming, zooz?
For me never. Others will swim normally around June/July.
what's the avg temp of the water in June/July (remember I need F)
I am too fussy. For one it would never be warm enough for me. Two too many dead things in the sea for me. Including burials at sea. Yuck.
yeah, I'm not a huge fan of ocean water either
YI would say around 50/ 55°F Tops.
plus, too many live things that might brush against your legs
oh yikes, that's way too cold
brr.. no way for me
I have the io 7 but would love some hints for the others. Ty
Turning chat off so I do not see clues. Not being rude.
only other one I have - he re7 himself for the day by drinking coffee, getting dressed, etc
re7.. extend what you do with a book and you prepare to do something
no prob, later, zooz
I do the same ru
I mean zooz!
think I will check out for a bit. there's a break in the rain so I should probably walk winston.
Got re 7. Ty
Great
Clue alo
Da7?
scratch his ears for me
but I will protest no mooner or mooer on my way out. will do, aloy, he loves that.
Mooer and Mooner. A cow and his farmer who drops trou.
a pl., Une.. of the da6 before it, someone who curses something
Tx!!!
yvw ..
Gave me three words!
Well da4 Une : D
whoop !
must scoot.. Happy Babbling!
ty aloy
i need a reclue for io7 pls?
io + ** (opp of yes) + ***ry christmas plural for 8
ty, Cosmo :-)
ty cosmo
not getting aloy's clue for the re word?
re 7 - prepares something, or for something
Aloy's clue was worded weird. Extend what you do with a book, it means to prepare for something
clue for ra8, please?
agreed molly
compound wird Biltong
I thought my clue was fine ;)
He re7 himself for the day
that was my clue!
Were we talking about your clue? Hmm?

remop - I had to do some spots over the other day
So close to a PB violation
well it's not remope
aha, found it, thx
good morning everyone :)
It's a deluge here.
good afternoon, nan
still light rain for the moment here. had some deluge this morning.
oh - sorry -- didn't know you are more than 3 hours ahead of the west coast
I'm sure we'll have more again soon
stuck on 28. 15 of which are M and P.
still no idea
we ha some fast rain come down briefly but it slowed down now
no need to apologize, I was just answering in my time
oh, should we send mlfan to the PB?
So many different time zones here. When we are getting up, the Australians are going to bed.
so you are 4 hours ahead of the west coast then?
Yeah, I would say she goes to the PB for that
for what?
1pm here nan. we are in daylight saving time, are you?
Figure it out and you will get a word
cyber east and west coast are 3 hrs difference
yes we are on DST
ok, then just 3 hours
but it just turned 10:00 here
ok, that's 3 hours
I was confused because -- guess it was close enough to afternoon for you :)
1pm is after noon ;)
nm -- I'm not really awake yet
*need a shot of caffeine before I can think straight
I want to file a protest for pedaler too
as one who rides a bike?
exactly
my spellcheck didn't even disagree with it
Now who's going to the PB?
trying to find 3 more d's
I don't know?
I need one D
Have the evil spirit D ?
yes, thanks
just found it
ooh, found mine, was a 5
is that da 4/6?
4 and 6
no -- da 6/24
evil spirit, mlfan? it's da6. no 4.
guys and -al- with a d
name that proper noun - garfield's dog friend
odie
Or like a rounded roof
ding ding ding!
have those, just missing one d now
last D ends in Y
doon should be a word
alt sp of a seven dwarf?
have that
maybe a pl then. there is a 4 that is a pl
oh, here comes the downpour!
have the scrip L-Do-- ?
Oh goodie. It looks like we are going to go through ALL the D words
da x 9, de x2 and di x3 -- the rest are do
4 di
you are missing an easy 4 or a pl
ty carla
di x 4
np
oops - mis counted - I do have di x 4
will leave it for now
well, there's also only 8 da
nm, now Im' miscounting
I think you're missing do4/6 maybe
the one after gloom
astro-do--
video game Do--
have do 4/6 x3
don't know any video games
I don't think we are helping, Hokie
i have 5 do and one do5
Do you have d + multiple Mr. Gores?
that was my guess but she has all the da
yes
there are 9 do s
And she said she had 9 do words
there are 4 do4/6. pretty sure it's the one I was saying was after do4 and gloom
The dwarf?
it's an amino acid that converts to do4mine in the brain.
no -- 9 da words, do x 8
how's that? ;)
she's got those - I think its Hokie's gloom clue word
do x 9
do x 9
no - I have gloom's partner
so I am missing a do
not that one, the one after that one
did you see my 12:21 clue where I basically gave it away?
do + not ma
There. Clued with three of the 4 letters. Do I remind you of anyone?
I'm just going to enter all the Do's !
that was it carla -- had the idiot, but not the one before
not
thanks everyone
it takes a village sometimes ;D
It was clued so many times, I was sure she already had it
Especially after the do4mine clue
I had missed carla's clue at 12:21
I think posts pop in after you've read stuff and she missed it
exactly
That is why I often scroll back and re-read when the chat is moving fast
yep, happens to me quite a bit, so I'll scroll back and think, where did that come from?
This day is moving at a snail's pace. I can't believe it is only 1:30. I feel like I have been at work for 10 hours.
that's the worst
with all the adulterated words that are now acceptable, wouldn't you think that x-ray would have become xray by now?
mkg thought so earlier
I am nose tothe brick wall at 62 to go mark.
49 to go here -- sure do miss lickety
have made it down to 23
but basically stuck
nan, molly has the list in her profile
I've been looking for that last do* for too long, lol. Totally not seeing it... and I've already taken a couple of breaks, no joy.
the m's are giving me grief -- still need 12 of them -- some of them have to be 4's!
my last was do5, shaped like a cupola or such
There are people who are very used to being able to insert words into the Lickety format so profile lists don't appeal to them. I know Pen doesn't care for them.
I need 5 M's and 7 P's!
all those vowels and not one cat sound!
I do love the entering words feature of the list, but I'll use a profile list if necessary. back before lickety made that, I would enter profile lists into a spreadsheet and do it that way.
I have made spreadsheets before. It's tedious though
Lickety's bulk add feature is nice
yeah, the bulk add was a game-changer
coming back later with fresh eyes
I used to go to VolleymomDee's profile because she often had the list when Lickety was down but her list is old... Usually I just don't know who's profile to go to for list, so I trudge it out until I go word blind. (Forgot Molly had added to her profile, thanks for the reminder!)
stuck on io 7 an 8 ??
put a vowel between a charged particle and a french sea
thanks cyber.. i was getting cranky
thanks nan!
yw -- bbl
Unless I'm having a really busy day, I usually add a "made" list to my profile. I don't log out so I always show up in Who's Online.
*Sigh* I miss Dee
MOLLY, did something happen to Dee?
No, but she doesn't post here anymore.
Oh, she doesnt play either?
She plays, she doesn't chat. I don't want to speak for her and get into the whys of that.
thanks for the info
hi all.has it been a year since rubyfoo died? I miss her
I miss her too Peri. She was a force of nature, our Ruby.
And yes it has been about a year.
I am sure she died in spring before her gardens were in full bloom
I was thinking longer than that, but the last 1.5 year is a blur.
83 left. I will use the list in your profile later, Molly
gray and rainy day here
my street is flooded right now
does that happen often, carla?
every time it rains hard now. they are about to fix it in Apr. has been a problem in heavy rains since about '08. one year they got a hose stuck in the pipe when they were trying to clear it and they just cut it off and left it.
Peri, I just checked the archives. It was March 23 that Nadia posted her note here about Ruby's passing
hope it gets fixed soon
they sent a camera in last fall and discovered it is completely collapsed under my neighbor's driveway so then it was a whole lot of who has to pay for it.
thanks for checking Molly
we had to get politicians involved and everything :D
but it floods into our front yard and has created a huge trench (prob waist deep on me) in our side yard.
oh no that is awful carla
stuckwith 82 left bbl
and they will have to tear up our neighbor's driveway, so he's kinda been dragging his feet
I am super stuck at 21
I mean 23
well now 22, found a spanish word
another P, so now 21.
don't worry, I'm not just sitting here staring. back to sewing!
I am lol
LOL
just found a 7 pl that I thought I had. 20 left!
that is a plural 7, not PL7
RE7 was it?
just found 3 M's! 17
it was ho7
still need 3 7s
You telling the truth about the ho7, Hokie lol
don't believe it!
Haha!
I do just need 1 R, but I have an RE7
RA 6h24 maybe.
6/24
I do not see any ra6, so will look, thx
I reckon not a regular word since you guessed it right off the bat...
Yeah I would not use it put it that way lol
well, peeked at molly's list to see the 3rd letter. new one on me. thx.
Welcome.
found another M! now just 1 there.
FWs
nicely done!
Congrats, Dizgrannie!
Time for me to go. Goodluck with the rest of the grid, Hokie.
have a good night, zooz
hokie your streets are flooded right now?
yep, still flooded
uggh
just right in front of my house
any water coming in?
stay safe hokie
no, mr. homie has built a series of dams to divert it from our house. one at the sidewalk and the other in front of the flower bed in front of my sewing room (which is technically a living room)
ohh thats good
I guess not a dam, not sure what that would be called
i think it stopped here or maybe slowed down
a wall?lol
yes, it is either stopped or barely sprinkling, but since the drain pipe is busted it takes forever to recede
is the town coming to fix it anytime soon?
supposed to be toward end of Apr
yeah probably have to since april can be rainy
our area had a pipe near us that had to be fixed 3 times as i guess they couldnt figure out where the problem was the first two times
well, they have the job posted for contractors to bid on it until Apr. 21, and then whoever wins the bid has 30 days to fix it.
why do the bid?
I wonder if they are required to. My bro works for DOT in another state and was surprised too.
that makes no sense they should prioritize
I think we're just lucky they finally agreed to fix it.
but i admit took them a while ot get to the job that had to be done here
this has been a problem for many years here but for a while it was just 50% collapsed, and now that it's all the way, it's really a problem. but it's probably been a year since we really started pushing them to fix it.
that is beyond ridiculous that could be a safety hazard
how's the H going for you? I have 2 left and am really baffled. not a lot of options in the corner.
i have 8 left
yeah, the fire dept has come and closed the road a few times if someone calls them
nice
also 2 of 2nd col S that is a complete mystery
make that 5 left
guess I should just use the list
me too 2 left on s 2nd column
well i am going to go now i dont know if i will be back or not. A lot more to find then probably anyone poof!
bye
guess I will list for last 15
ooooof
ha at my last M, I guess the canadians got that one.
side
sepa
oh dear excuse me
it's been a day...
Molsen isn't in the gird Carla. Nice entrance Hursh.
it's okay. I don't know who's lurking but I only have 5 P's left.
well the second one isn't even a word without adding another letter anyway
and if you didn't have the first one, well, you need more help than i can give
I'm probably going to have to spreadsheet for these P's. too confusing.
so i took a long-term sub job for some weeks, and started to day. and the teaching aspect was fine but physically i was a mess. i thought there would be like 5 mins to wolf something down early in the morning, but there wasn't. so i had no breakfast, nor the meds i usually take with breakfast, and was talking a lot with a mask, and i started to get dizzy and my vision was blurring out with these like bright spots, and i thought i was going to pass out. plus my back was killing me because i've been working at home, lounging in a comfy chair, and it was not ready to be standing all day
oh no
sounds like it was a doozy
yeah, needless to say, will adjust what i do tomorrow!
i got one i from the center col, io6, what else does that one have?
wow, my last 4 was a word I used in the chat earlier thinking it wasn't here, and yet it was
io7/8
ty
wow, last 2 p's were also a phantom I thought. oh well, only 4 out of last 15 were words I should have gotten.
hi hi
60 to go here
hi harry
hallo hurshy
howdy harry
hi carla
everything is so crazy too
there's like no school supplies in the classroom, because of COVID. so if a kid doesn't have a pencil, it's suddenly a major problem. technically they aren't even supposed to borrow one from each other, either
I just started a show on smithsonian channel and the closed captions are like dutch or something. so weird.
yeah, that would be weird, hurshy
we have "silent lunch" - it is the eeriest thing
four corners grayed :)
silent lunch used to be for punishment ;)
life kind of feels like a punishment when I look at the little kids these days.
yeah, i was in a 6th grade, i can't even imagine how you keep a class full of kindergarteners apart and not taking their masks off
I bet. sad.
ERs are saying they're getting more adolescents with suicidal ideations.
what a mess
it's weird how a lot of kids have had problems, but then some, freed from bullying by distance learning, have thrived. i saw on kid post on reddit about how he doesn't want to go back, his grades are so much better now for that reason.
yes I've seen that too hurshy. so strange.
got a kid who is remote and she is not wanting to come in person.
very happy to wake up late, keep ppl at arm distance.
(a student, not a child of mine...)
well and if they are getting better grades, it's hard to argue with that
def not getting better grades.
ah, then she has no good reason :D
and it's very hard on the teacher. (me).
sorry to hear that harry :(
I have to spend time with her on zoom outside of class, make up separate assessments, etc.
high schoolers are going back Apr 13 here, but my senior is like, no way.
just waiting for next year. and hoping they don't allow kids to stay remote without good reason.
sigh
why carla?
senioritis? likes signing in remotely and going back to sleep? doesn't have to leave before 7am to get to school?
all of the above I guess.
he also says nobody is going back. he was going before thanksgiving but no one was there and decided it was a waste of time.
crazy.
yeah i saw a post the other day where they said, "studies show that teens do better with later start times and less homework, but apparently the puritan work ethic overrides all of that."
each period was having like 45 min of study hall at the end of it and at home he can do whatever in that time
each PERIOD?
not just each day?
I assume they'll go back to full class Apr. 13
they only have 4 long periods in the school day
ah
might be 30 min, I don't know. I just know for 4th period he had to stay until 2:15, whereas at home he's finished at like 1:30.
i wish my transcribing work were more sustainable so i could just keep on with that, sigh
hurshy, weren't you the one who said recently you missed the chats of old? I k0ostly lurk, but watch the chat. Rastapopolous is my daughter.
yes, i often mention that i miss the chats of old :)
always hoppin'
hopin' or hoppin'?
oh, folks, if you like detective shows, i watched one recently that's on Britbox (if you have that), called McDonald & Dodds, that was quite enjoyable. there are only two eps and idk if that's it for "season 1" or what, but they're longer, like Columbo was, like 90 min each.
"I am serious and don't call me sharly"
hoppin', hoppin', there was never a lull of hours with nobody speaking in them da4
40 to go!
i see what you mean about the P words, hokie
missing 8 Ps
10 here
gotta think about supper - have a good day!
afternoon all...231 here
If I notice an empty period I will try to say something prob not worth saying--you may not be on, though, Hurshy.. I can always stick in what I write weekly for Illinois Times--
what sorts of things do you write about??
moo, glad you made it since you're in the grid
oh yeah, look at that
I'm famous!
name that proper noun! she got eric clapton on his knees, beggin' darlin' please
layla
ding ding ding!!!
I tied with someone earlier for that :D
a great variety, that's why people like them. About every third one is political--I wrote comparing the golden calf in Exodus to the golden statue of trump in Florida. abt 15 lines.
how's you day going hoke?
yeah that was a pretty glaring comparison, hard to miss
for those of us who grew up in sunday school at least
Howdy, Roundbarn. Your books still hold a special place on my shelves. :)
pretty good, moo, how's it for you? must be busy.
yeah, end of quarter
that's right. I gotta start my April quilt tomorrow.
getting my first shot tomrrow
you make a quilt every quarter?
every month!
wow
I make one every never
that was my resolution back in Jan, to finish these quilt tops my grandmother left behind.
LOL, moo. and congrats on your shot.
I kept the book, and donated the pamphlet-sized ones to our local library so other can enjoy your stories.
tx
so, I do have a bit of a head start, hurshy
one of my college classmates was quilting, like whenever she'd be watching tv or whatever, but she was doing it like suuuuper intricate and all by hand so it was like a years-long type of project
90 to go
yeah, I do everything possible by machine, but my grandmother used to do a lot by hand.
she also did a lot of really hard classes, hard sciences/pre-med, she was a very impressive person
I took chemistry and still wonder to this day, why, so I would say that is impressive.
lol
what's the other 8 besides the io8
ra8
ty
got it
well done
and 7s, i have da, ho, io... help with others?
thanks, Crossy--did I ever report I finished Vol 4--the end of the trilogy? I'm a good writer but a bad publicist--I'm now giving aay the 1st 3 vols. for the postage, so that at my demise my kids won't have so much to tend to!
did you misapprehend what a trilogy is? lol
re7
re 7/32
i really wanted model and remodel
ar7, ha7, po7
does ar go with a 6?
cause i do need 2 from the right
yes
hurshy, the problem was, I kept shoving what there wasn't enough room for, into the next volume: then vol 3 filled up so I had to have a vol 4, but this allowed more pix, an index, other interesting things otherwise missed! you can check out my websites if you wish--jacqueline-jackson, and round bgarn stories I think they are called.
:D
got the po!
I misread that
36 to go
25 here but my head hurts and i'm so tired
i see lickety's printable list is still showing tuesday, is there a list in a profile?
name that proper noun! famous NYC neighborhood
with globetrotters :D
look at molly's
harlem
ding ding ding!!!
I lived there once
says moo to every location in US
thankee for list
feels like it
but I did live in Harlem near 142nd street
i can't get it
my mom is still in the same house as when I was born. I lived there until college, then college, then moved to this area and have been here since.
this ar pair
i know the third letter now
kinda like a spider
but my brain is not working
ok thank you that worked
like I said but you may have missed, 11 out of my last 15 were new
yeah
Before I went to college, I lived in 12 houses
was on my 13th house when I went to college
have lived in 3 houses and 1 apt. here
Well I've lived in two apartments and two townhouses (I think)
college was 2 dorm rooms and 2 apts.
Houses...hmm
military family moo?
oh 3 apartments
three townhouses
this is my 20th house
may have missed one or two in there somewhere
I guess one of the townhouses was more an apartment
does the ha7 NOT go with the ha6?
no, it doesn't
ok nvm pulled a peri anyway
no surprise, those were in my last 11
thx for the clue on the h6
*limps weakly over the finish line and goes to get more painkillers*
25 left
oh, you got this
yeah, maybe not...slow going
7x4, 10x5, 5x6 and 1x7 remainin
I think you have a lot of the hard ones already.

back.
hey HH, happy Wednesday
back atcha
tx
ayam as in "ayam what ayam"
should I get you some spinach?
shiver me timbers - I just had some yesterday!
middle column done
I'm strong to the finish coz I eats me spinach
or that pink floyd song: haha sharade you are
heh
if your friend has no food, would you go into sharemode?
If you're going to give away words, give some that I don't have
where would be the fun in that?
whoa just blacked the bottom s with some weird ones.
I have 18 left, and 5 of them are 4s....seems like I should be able to find those
yeah, the last two are odd
sounds like squiggy greeting the girls
heh
Clues for that S? I need 2 from there.
it's a 5/6 combo of a weird word champ
sh5/6
Okey dokey
still need 2 from the other bottom s though

videophone?
there was a pre facetime?

ty
oh, I see what you did there

still 34 here.
16 now
15
oh, 14
and still 5x4 to go
I only had 1 4 left and it was a regular word
well I found one 4
paleoid - I can make up half a dozen definitions for that.
yes, especially if you have some averse oids
and I keep getting visions of my favorite deceased shoestore - payless
some=sun
depomen = those helpful men at Home Depot
payless is dead?
I think so - all of them around here have closed up
well I haven't been to the mall in like a year
they still have a website
or at least someone who sells shoes under the name payless does
maybe it's just online now.
could be
yarsh - sean connery for yes
website says they are back, revamped, etc
jerry stiller's wife is in the grid
but yeah, I don't see any locations on there
RIP Anne Meara
I was an actuary for a short stint, and one of my pension plans was Stiller and Meara
at that point I had no idea who they were
(1986-7)
10 to go
pedimen: I'll leave that def'n to your imagination.
28 here.
well if impediment is something that slows or halts your progress...
then pedimen are people who help you move forward
don't forget the UK spelling, paedimen.
I think pedaler(s) should be a word.
second that carla.
yes, I may have tried that several times, even while believing it wasn't accepted
double L
DD M N PP E R
or not.
finished the first column :)
my last M was a regular word
oh found a 4
the e is a stupid one IMO
oh, three D's
tx, got the e
the R is a word new to me
DDD M N P RR
you got the E by me telling you it was stupid?
yes
changed the way I was looking at it
lol
:D
the N might be something Miss Piggy says
nooo
I think I accidentally got that because I don't even remember typing it
how can you not find the R by me saying it's new to me?
I haven't found the r yet, but you saying it's new would mean that it's nor a regular word
yes, I'm just joking that you find words with the vaguest of statements
also, I have two R's left, so you're guessing it's a combo I assume...unless you missed that I had two
also 2 Rs here
nope, I missed there were 2
and 22 others.
nice, Harry, you're almost done :D
home stretch or something :)
maybe y'all are missing 2 unrelated R's
gonna list in a couple more. 90% is good enough.
the combos aren't hard
23. listing.
ahah! no list !
well that changes things.
ah, found one of the r's
2x4 2x5 2x6 and 1x7 remaining
molly has in her profile, harry
aha! on the R
found a D
actually, found all my D's
so 4 left
got molly's list. ty
1x4, 2x5 and a 6
was it the set of dang! words
hell if I know :)
I would've never seen those if I hadn't in the chat
oh
I was looking for my remaining 4s
so PRMN?
oh, just heard the owl outside
yep
that would be funny if your P is the same 4 that was my last 4
and the M was the same 5, as those are both regular words
no, my last p was a 5
3 to go
found my last r
2 to go
I'm up to P. gonna be tough with this list.
yeah, I had to do a spreadsheet for the P, harry
just 4 missing now.
Ps. 7 total

Ps done. 3 to go
First do5/14?

LOL, I know, harry!
done
it's part of a plant
I think
ty molly for the list
going back to high school biology
like the phloem
yes, and the x one :)
it's the hypothetical substance all everything is derived from. or something.
I was sure there was something related to monera there, but no.
all everything. I speak english.
oh, well there you go...I learn something new
initial universe stuff
physics term...
phlostigon or something like that
phlogiston
those whacky scientists and their imaginary particles
sorry, theoretical
wacky?
if you're going to make up words, you may as well make them ridiiculous
well, my last 4 was a common word
m's done
whacky would mean that they smack their research assistants...oh wait...
zyzzyvas is still a fave
will be a fun day when that shows up in the grid
my last M was what the canadians love
remind me to be sick that day.
my last was a plural 3 that I thought I'd done already
I'm going out on a limb and saying that is never showing up
so n5 for the big bright sparkly things
have a good night all!
good night harry!
night HH
did you ignore my clue for that one earlier?
no...I remember the piggie
not really sure what she said tho
ah
well, this word has no def in the link, so I can't even try another clever clue
maybe you gave the correct def :)
m-w has a def
so was your def correct?
nope, it's from law, that might help
then it's either an acronym or latin I would guess
yes
okay, I've run out of time...gotta get going
tfth
ok, think french me
LOL, that sounds bad
