Good morning, all. I think we could have had better distribution of the "Os" today.
Good morning, Judi.
these damn grids just can't make Judi happy these days
True. I've been bailing out on most of them after I get about 1/2 way through. Just don't have the attention span right now.
So, how's Ruru doing? Long time no chat.
I'm doing ok.. today is a happy day for me for sure though
Because...
how have you been ?
*Gives Judi a dose of ritalin
Eh. So so.
I'm adopting a new dog today.
Congrats, Ru!!
Good for you!
Adult or puppy?

good morning everyone
Hey nan
I'd make a joke about the ma6/36 but that'd be too corny
'morning, folks
hi welki
he's five une
Hey welki :-)
Breed?
chocolate labrador
makes me happy to read about your new kid, ru
Oohhh such sweet dogs!!
thanks welki..
how many dogs now, ru?
just this one nan.. I lost my other dog a couple of months ago
oh - so sorry to hear that -- he wasn't very old was he? I seem to remember puppy pictures.
i'm sorry about dylan - i knew something had happened, didn't know what
he had a lot of medical issues nan but he outlived the vet's projections he lived to 11 and 1/2
they told me when he was diagnosed that he'd live to 7-8 max
wow - i thought he was younger, my memory is shit
Sorry to hear about the loss of your Dog, Ru. We too lost our dog of 8 years about a month ago. Cancer snuck up on her and stole her life. On the up side we adopted a new dog last Saturday. A little female border collie. She is a sweetheart.
Can't chat much. Boss is in the building. He'd freak if he saw me playing Babble. Later kids.
I thought Dylan was my last dog, but this guy really needs a good home and dropped out of the sky to me so I'm going to take good care of him
you and i should never utter those words, 'no more dogs.'
i know Welki.. i gave it the old college try, but i'm miserable without a dog
same with us. what's his name and i'd like to tell him that he's the luckiest boy :)
Buddy.. and it kind of fits him so I'm not going to change it.. although with me he'll have fifty other names B-boy, B-man, Budmeister, etc
he's really gorgeous too
i think i can speak for most of us in wishing the two of you the best and that we'd all like to see a photo or two of this soon-to-be-spoiled-to-the-moon-and-bac\nk Buddy
i'll figure out how to do it i have to take better pictures than the current caretaker.
hi all.. and congrats, ru! So happy for you and for Buddy too.
and thank you
apologies if i broke the chat with that hyphenated phrase
thanks aloy
the m's are killing me today
I'm excited for you, Ru. Buddy is just who you need.

nbt

Ru, my email is screwed up.....text please?
Or should I be singing Buddy, can you spare a dime?
i'll pm you on facebook so i can get that # and send you a few photos
does the du8 start with a word for a two person fight?
Hi all. Need clues for the E word in third column. Ty.
you mean duel mlf? no
Wait, YOU are moving slow because HE can drink?
Oops got that word. Sorry
i sent it to you, une (on FB)
stats for middle col. e please?
ey4
et6.18
yeah but not spelled that way obviously lol
i am trying to get the du8
sorry...I'm incorrect
If two groups of two fight at once is it a dual duel?
Do you have the du7.56?
i have 1 du word and its a4
a 4 du 4
ty ru
Look at the stats on the 7. It is 56 points. Must use a high point tile.
got them
nbt/nbs
du 7: state of being twinned
begin with the du 4/6 before it
lol
ty for the clue, nan.. was missing that one
i have it already
Buddy is such a handsome boy!!
:D he's supposed to be very mellow and sweet too. I'm really happy about this
Why is he being rehomed?
he's a rescue from a bad situation
He's a lucky dog.
ru, my hacking probs. are all solved on FB.. can you refriend me?
thank you bea
would like to see Buddy too
sure aloy.. send me a new request
oh, ok.. will do, ty
We are going on an adventure today.
where to?
have to scoot with 14 left: the retired teachers are getting together for their first luncheon since quarantine, yay
fun aloy.. have a great time
Mom is going to the hair salon.
oh gosh.. that will be nice for her
looking forward to it.. you have fun, too, Bea.. and I know ru will, picking up his Buddy! poof
Usually she just goes with a cane. Today we have to take her walker and and a big ass cylinder of 02...
oh that is an adventure then
I always feel like I'm driving around with a time bomb when we take those tanks.
well.. in a way you are
I know!
I thought bea's mom was in the hospital?
I'm working on getting her a portable concentrator.
She was nan. She got home on MOnday.
I think you need to find a hair dresser that will come to your home. She must feel a lot better if she feels like getting her hair done, so that is good news.
Unfortunately, it is against state law for cosmetologists to do home services.
really? there's a girl here that's been doing people's hair in their homes for years.
same here carla
it was really great during covid -- she was cutting some of her customers' hair out on their patios
Maybe she is doing it without a license.
she must have her license, because she is able to buy her supplies from the professional salon supply companies
now, maybe she doen't have a business license from the city.
Hi all. Need clues for any 8s you have. ThaNKS. I have no 8s.
It may have been against the law during covid. They wouldn't arrest you for it, but they would takeaway your license
I think once you graduate and earn you hair dressing/cosmetology license, it is permanent as long as you keep paying your association dues.
We clued the du7/8 at 8:58
Ty
oh - the du 7 I have doesn't plural
That is du 7 but it is du 7 44, and the 8 is from another du.
If anyone has any 8s to clue i would be appreciative. Ty.
the du 7 and 8 build off the du4
So you have an 8?
so does the du 7/44
I would love a clue for the du 8 only please.
It is a plural of the 7
I have an at 7-8
du7.56 and du8.75
is there more than one du 7 then?
Yes.
There are two du 7s. Only one has an 8
gooooooooood morning babbleland
correct, mkg.
Both of the 7's build off the du4.
Hs Hacked!
ty -- new word for me
uhoh, i don't like hearing that lol
sounds like a manufactured word for clone
ok got it, that's not so bad
So i am still looking for the 8s. Clues welcome because i dont know a manufactured word for clone.
If you look at the point totals of the 7/8 I gave you, you might realize they are high points.
That is a clue!
start with the du4 and then make the end into an action verb ending
I just got it. Wow. Never saw or heard that one. Weird.
She has that one, hurshy
mkg doesn't
or didn't
lol
Is there an at 8?
yeah
I got it finally. Ty all cluers. Ty
i mean sorry i have no idea if there is an at8
I still would love clue for the at 8. Ty.
i overlooked the "at" there
Hurshy thanks.
For now i am set to go to costco.
The at8 is french for artists studio
ah cool cool
Rs Ravaged!
still need one more r
my last one was a simple normal 4, lol
They are all simple normal re's
they are mostly normal words yeah, the ones that aren't normal are very frequently seen in grids, so, nothing really "out there"
interesting that you can consolidate but you can't solidate
name that proper noun! ancient king with a huge harem
found it -- one of the re conjuations
time for breakfast
top row grey!
name that proper noun! she about whom there is a video game legend
Zelda!
ZELDA
ding ding ding!!!
somebody answer my 9:44 one too :)
12:16
SOLOMON
12:24
ding ding ding!!!
ty for the at 7/8
are you saying those are the times at which people already did those NTPNs?
I tried solomon but it didn't accept it :) thought it was worth the shot! LOL
i have the same du 7 8 that has been mentioned already, but not the du8 by itself?
mark so did i!
pl mlf, unless there's another du8
same root, MLF, but with a noun ending
lol
MLF there is no DU8 by itself
i think MLF meant the du7 that doesn't pluralize
those are the times I did those NTPN. proving that we always see the same NTPN.
there is the combo plus another 7
good morn all!!
oh maybe i misread chat
hi Hokie!!
aha lol
dolly!
yes have the combo
hello all!
Stats please for the "i"?
NM...pulled a peri.
hi car
hi harry
good morning
Hello. Prayers for those in Florida <3
Harry! How the hell have you been? You have been missed
HARRY!
just awful car.
good morning Harry
hi molly and carla

what's going on in FL?

Building collapse
:(
a building collapsed right?
it looks really bad. 2 AM total collapse
so i'm missing a du7, hmmmm
wow, looks really bad
"pancake"
This is getting creepy. Yesterday a pedestrian bridge collapsed in DC, now a building in Florida.
shirl same first four letters
Okay, informal poll. We were discussing the 35 year age difference between singer/actress Katharine McPhee and her husband. Do you think that relationships with significant age differences can stand the test of time?
no
ne 6 clue pls?
Or you think age differences don't matter in relationships?
i hope they can in some cases, molly
i always root for people to be happy together
celine dion's husband was a lot older too
katherine ze4-jones and michael douglas have lasted, haven't they?
i was about to say that too hurshy
of course we're only talking about people who love each other, not cases like anna-nichole smith
wow, didn't realize michael douglas was the same age as my mom
One point that was made that with celebrity couples, there is money involved. That can be a motivator in staying together
well, anna nicole smith claimed she loved the old dude
but it was a pretty transparent claim
i have two ye4s, anyone have the other y word?
she was so drugged up at that point maybe she believed it
The only couple I know with an age difference, the age difference is 10 years. They say that has been a struggle at times.
my father married my stepmother when he was 51 and she was 41
has never been an issue, as far as I know
I know a couple with a 25 year difference or so. also hasn't been much of an issue. they've been together over 20 years
Who is older? Him or her? The majority of couples with an age difference is older guy/younger woman. I will let you guess why
yes. he is older. and there's no money involved
I wasn't thinking of money Harry : D
historically, it's about childbearing I think
my husband and i are 10 yrs apart he is the older one
I think it's more about what leads to childbearing
well it's always about that.
ne 6 clue pls
Oh ick, now I'm thinking about that creepy old man in Absolute Power who had the younger wife and put a viewing room in the bedroom so he could watch her get it on with other guys
greek myth mer people mlf
ok ty shirl..
Ls Licked!
my question got lost in the discussion earlier - i have two ye4, does anyone have the other y word?
yes it's a ye 6
ah, of course
aha thanks!
was trying to use that ending with everything
:)
ah got it. ty md
me too and it finally clicked
yw
still not getting that ne6 that was just clued

Awwww..Star Wars princess is in the grid today <3

LEIA

I have 2 oa and 2 oo

mo8
can you clue the du?
what eye drops do Nan
the du7/8 build fromthe dual4/6
what eye drops are, more specifically
yes have a 6 and a 7 that answers that clue
there you go gave away half of the words
hmm, I have a du7 with that du4
but not the drops themselves - ty
i got a di 6/7
help with lone E please
does the mo8 involve a prefix for one?
ey4
nm
ty mlf
no it doesn't Hokie
yw
thanks dolly, will move on from that
found mo6/7 but not an 8
it builds off the 5 ltr word before it
yw sweetie
the mo 5 i have iss a pl?
and the place where people stay in when on a trip
I have one that ends in a vowel but I need so many M's it's impossible to tell
did not have that one, thx
still need 8 from each M
yw
and a pl after that one
well I made it to 50 left. need to get to work here. BBL
hokie the one i jsut found ensds in a vowel
There is only 1 M8
not seseeing that mo 8 -- have tried celestial orbs and single things
it builds off the mo5/12
like slang for cash and king of the grid for the day?
add a 3 ltr ending to it
like those pesky ground rats
so it is mo 5/12 + 3 letters?
leet
oops
i have more then one mo 5/12 and am still not getting it
morning all...another sizable one I see
only mo 5/12 I have beginns with one of our players
take the pesky ground rat - the last vowel, add a man's name, then the 3 letter ending
pesky ground rat -- like a prairie dog?
shew, got it dolly.
hey moo!
smaller version Nan
hey hoke...happy Thursday I think
maybe
ah -- the king of the grid is here -- gm mool
today I'm making a rash guard, which is a swim shirt
hey nan, happy maybe Thursday to you too

hi Mool!!
for
hey dolly, happy day to you too
it doesn't, mlfan
there are several mo5/12s
hi mool happy thursday
including me :)
hokie exactly
well kind of
this one is like an adj. describing an mo4 that isn't in the grid
the burrowing rat - last vowel is only 3 letters -- add 3 to that and you have 6 letters, not 8
you missed the part where she said to add a man's name - it's a 2 letter nickname
paul simon had a song with it, there was a character on happy days who ran the restaurant, etc, etc
Mr Sharpton, -- in the morning, Mr Hitchcock
did you try oaty again hoke?
you know, I saw oaty but since I just tried it yesterday I didn't today
good to know
ok - have the mo 5/12 - new word for me
mr. roker. do they have the today show in canada?
trying dif. letter combos to add to it now
which m does it begin with?
4th column i think
if harry were still here he'd remind us it's chemistry
got it - whew -- thank you thank you
yeah, 4th col, 4th row M
yes well - didn't study chemistry
well, I took that as my freshman science in college and it was a huge mistake.

We're getting our new Prius today

ooh, nice bichon! do enjoy.
We will
apparently there is a gang here that steals catalytic converters from priuses. hope you park inside at night!
I assume it's a thing everywhere
Definitely!. Mr. B cleaning out the garage today
but damner nor condamner aren't in the grid. Hm.
it's not acceptable, so wouldn't waste too much time looking for it
duh -- just found the gas that big trucks use
baked beans
that was one of my nemesis words I was referring to earlier, nan. I actually found it today!
potato salad
ribs?
no, cole slaw
fireworks here!!
how about deviled eggs?
any clues needed?
37 to go

to be fair, I knocked a lot of em out after the flip
maybe :)
grats dolly
ty!
indeed, well done
ty!
yeah, deviled eggs
good job, dolly
47 here
I can make a pretty good 3-bean salad too
goodness, the fourth column O was easy once i tried from there.
10-8-5-2-2
temps are supposed to hit 42C here over the next few days, so boiled up a bunch of spuds and eggs this am for salads
oh wow...that's hot
oh, yum nan
I have a recipe called marinated vegetables, that my friend says is very similar to her 3 bean salad
how hot is it for those of us opposed to C?
Oh, also these grilled veg, pesto naan pizza's are pretty fun
pretty damn hot
high on Sunday will be just 22C
low houndreds F, carla
37.5C = 100F
that's ruff
so 42C= about 108 or so
right on mool -- 107.6
tx nan, did it in my head, so good to see I wasn't off
was my punning on seain's typo too subtle?
C * 1.8 + 32 = F
it's also very dry, so big fear of forest fires -- parks will probably be closed, no campfires, etc.
I autocorrected his typo in my brain
ah, yeah. What is known as a Red Flag Warning here in the US.
is it a dry heat at least, nan?
oh yes -- like arizona dry
that's good
I went to Vegas once in July and it was around 110 out. didn't bother me as much as 90s here in the soup
the entire pacific time zone in north america is bracing for broken heat records
Vegas bothers me regardless of the temperature
same here!
LOL
when I look out the window and see the heat waves rising off the pavement, I just crank up the a/c and hang tight :D
I've only been the one time
I've been I think 5 or 6 times...mostly work related
maybe more
my friend couldn't take the heat and went back to our hotel, but mr. homie and I did a little blackjack crawl
the 90's in Montreal is much worse! It's going to hit the 90's in Vancouver today and that won't be very nice either.
we're going to have nice mild weekend, high from Friday through Monday is just 77
nice, mool
Back to 90 in 10 or so days
Sigh.....mild sounds great.....
I get so cold in AC I like to go out in the garage or just go outside for a while. but don't like to be out all day in the mugginess.
we are just 75 right now
We have ceiling fans. Helps a lot
90+ for the next week.....
hokie i am cold all the time indoors
I hate it, usually wear winter clothes in the house
not enjoying these m's
2nd column i only have 9
4th column i only have 17
I need 6 + 8 M's
I have 21 off that one, and 26 off the other one...but they're tough going
now i have 18
25 to go
2.5 WPT
yeah, I have no idea what else they can be. have tried everything and made up a few
55 to go....
Babbling and rotating hoses....
hmm
8-8-5-2-2
what is rotating hoses?
also, why isn't motelier a word? too fancy? I guess since mo5 is a portmanteau maybe.
moving your hoses around your yard to water different places methinks
i honestly think i am reentering some of these words when i come and go to the grid or lickety or anywhere else but nothing unusual
14-15-12-5-1

i haven't really seen it, maybe a clip but that's it, but they did a parody of it on Square One's Mathnet back in the day, the Maltese Pigeon
was watching Stand By Me last night and a ton of lines that wouldn't be allowed today, even though it's set in the 50s
not sure you're missing much to be honest
the Maltese Pigeon is up thare with Fiddler in the Chair.
i think my favorite was the one where they had rock legend Bruce Stringbean, popularly known as "The Floss" for his promotion of dental health practices
:)
that was also the one where George Frankly held his calculator like a gun and did that police-way-of-going-around-a-corner-to\n-enter-a-room thing, saying "Mathematicians! Freeze!"

it's going to be an El Al Tell All
I still need 2 h's, know 1 is a 6 but can't find it
assassin but change i to e, perhaps
yep, never seen that before
two he6 are prepositions, and the last is about religious disagreement
I have 3 now but one is a prep, one religious, and the one you just clued
ok, got the other prep, wasn't sure if you were saying there were 4
does anyone have more than one a7 or more than one t7?
no on the A but I need 5
no on the T but I need 5
lol
or for that matter does anyone have more than 5 M7?
I have 4 M7 and need 6 + 8 M's
found one
oh well, guess i'll just list for these last 6 words
a7 : artisan shop keeper
have that one, she asked if there was more than one
and i now know there is also an au7
i didn't think to plural what i thought was an adjective 6
au 6-7 combo
don't have any t7's yet
hmm
got 'em, thx
I guess the T7 is those who lag behind, alt sp of those who make clothes
ty carla
down to 40
yw
there is one more M7, that's what else i missed
hmm
still 10 here
I have 4 times as many!
SS T AAA MM MM
my last word is a T4
sounds fun
Sx3 Sx2 Lx7 Tx5 Dx4 Ax3 Lx2 Mx5 N Mx8 - it's a sad state
tada!
congrats hursh
2-3-3-1-1
that is a t4, well done
hokie i did "Moliere" as a NTPN, did you do that one earlier too?
ha! no, not up on my french people
mk lol
ah, found two a's
found 2 s's!
actually...all my a's
1-1-3-1-1
I keep forgetting that double o word
there was a statue of Moliere in the square just outside our hotel in Paris
found another S!
now just need 1 from each
every time I see la 4/6 that hymn starts running through my head -- it was one of our minister's favourite
hmm, I think i have that already. found 4 L's but still need 3 + 2
I'm sure you do --- all glory, la 4 and honour
yeah
did you get the willy lo 5 (death of a salesman)
ah, found my last 7
I thought that was loman
been a while since I read it though
I have managed to get down to 31. 10-12-7-2
lol itis --- don't know what I was looking at!
nothing new or particularly strange in l's
keep seeing lolitis - an inflammation from smiling too much
soup spoon(s) and those who use them
not in the grid, in nan's post
have those
the annealing oven(s)
don't know how many times I've wanted to enter mailto
I could have those and not know it
well it's good in html nan :)
we always have both the german grocery stores together
*!*~*!* last word a ma 6/21 I've never seen before -- def is even stranger.
well done. 26 left here.
yes but I went to the list some 40 odd words ago
well, you're smarter than me. I'm just wasting time. will walk Winston in a minute. it's so pleasant out.
congrats nan

7-10-7-2
S S LLL TTT DD A L MX5 N MX8. not liking these M's at all today
lol, just found boys
ah, an L6/7
nice
missing N was a pl I'm sure I tried
nice
ok, would have liked to get to 20, but stuck on 21. S S L TTT DD A L Mx5 Mx6 - 6-8-6-1. I think maybe my last 7 is an M if I remember hurshy correctly. statistically, much greater odds of it being an M.
I have 3 m7s
did not find he mo8 earlier help please
actually 6
three from each m :)
I guess my last 8 is mo then
not that that tells me much...it was most likely to come from there
it is chemistry, peri. if you have du7, it ends in same last 5 letters
oh boy, yeah would not have stumbled on that...though I did have the 5
yeah, only 5 M7 here
ty carla
so 4 to go...SS T M
0-1-3
well I just said chemistry to hurhsy and she was like, oh yeah
well I guess someone has to know :)
I'm sure Harry would
the 5 was a guess for me...didn't even guess what the meaning was until you mentioned it
ok, looks like my M7 is from the bottom
yeah, I guessed on the m5 too and didn't know until I looked up the def
these m's have been tough
mabye
or maybe even
surprised there were no cancers in this board
M7 is not malitol, no matter how many times I type it
they're all regular words hoke
phantom maudlin
yes, I have been playing with that one
trying to find a 6
I have flyers the go through the post office and a milkshake additive comparative
did you plural the pirate word?
yep, you may want to think about that first one a bit more
yes...pluraled the pirates
or is it pluralized...or pluralated :)
probably pluralized
pluralatized
omg, a compound of course. PS - I have tried that ending with everything today except the actual accepted words
magnificent
5-8-6
0-1-3....but you already knew that
9/19 are M
oh duh...found 2 words
lol
so an M6 off the bottom and a T6 off the middle
nice
there's a couple of m plurals which have no singular
I have an mo6 that matches that
yeah, there's a 5 as well
would be handy to find it :)
well, I have spanish hands but it has a sing
oh yeah, duh
anagram it
I was looking at the wrong one
ah, thanks
still not sure where these 5 4's are hiding
what letters you have left?
S S L TTT DD A L and then M 4+4
you have the bean (both spellings) off the right s?
I have one ending in vowel and one plural
the last d is a 4
ooh, found the upper S, a 4
there's a d6 that could be translated as "two particles" I guess...not sure if you have that
are you saying alphabetically or the last one I'm going to find? my last d right now is du4/7
then you have the one I was thinking of
hmm, not duatom
you have the church congregation...l5?
so close :)
it's possible but no idea on the l5
ah, I know that word from true crime stories
(d6)
oh, yeah I have the L5
k
I have 7 TY, are there more?
ha, found the bottom L
I only have 7
have one t remaining tho
3-7-5
though it's a 6, and doesn't seem likely to be a ty
just found a te6
2 t's left though
yeah, I have 2 te6s
me too, so either there's still one and we have different ones or there aren't
found an M!
phantom daily
hi, babblers
last D was di6 root word that I had ALL the other forms of
hey welki!
going to walk Winston and leave the last 12 for after while
hello to whoever is still here....
Hi Penquis.....just got on
hi Sophie...
Drive-by visit, Pen. I am on babysitting duties this evening. I only have 14 words left to find, but a two-year old has a way of interfering with finding words. I AM NOT COMPLAINING. My grandson is an utter delight. A little fun-sized person has totally bewitched me. I am indeed a very lucky lady!
sounds like you are!
mulat is not a word?
umlat
guess not...
you mean the German accent?.....that is umlaut, i think....
yup
heading out...bbl to finish....
bye!
I'm sooo tired. I have two meetings tonight, one at the city council where I have to pull support for safe consumption sites for people who use drugs. I think I will collapse of exhaustion but it is what it is.
Why do you have to pull support? Please feel free to email me at the address in my profile. I'm interested -- I also sit on a city council (different state)
any weird 4 letter N words?
No specifically?
yes
i mean, not like cwms weird, but, non-everyday ones
no4 contendere is a legal term i think
i have five 4 letter no words is that right?
no there is one more
i thought so
i have the one you just mentioned
one of them is a wandering traveller without a home, minus the d
have it and its pl
one is the opposite of yeses
got that
one is where you get all up in other people's business
have it
no4 bene
and a memo is the last one
and musical no and no ending in first vowel
well that is six
have the memo
and that is all
what is a bene>
?
when people write n.b. it means no4 bene
that's what ends in the first vowel
but we have just reviewed all the no4 words, which is six of them, and there are no more
ty hurshy guess its a 5 lol
It's a Latin phrase meaning "pay attention"
(basically)
i got it!
it was a 5
phantom the ma7 falcon
not really a phantom, just that annoying "not in the dictionary" message
phantom: maudlin
hi all
shoes!
hello..can I have stats for the top N?
ne4/4 is one

Got it now

Moliere....hi god....
Hi Penquis. Very Excellent! You win a Hot Date with Bourgeoisie Gentleman!
LOL....thanks!
i am done....
Heading out....goodnight all....
argh, my last L was a 4 I definitely already entered
can't believe I missed the indian corn
carla are you still here?
hello
just wondering how you were doing
good, how are you?
good. I've been so busy at work that I haven't finished most of the grids for the last week.
just found a tiny tick on Winston's head
ugh
this one was tough for me from about 50 on
yeh, this one is hard. I decided to list after about 200 words, given the time.
well, let me know if you get stuck on any
I will; right now I'm plowing thru the list, shaking my head at all the obvious words I missed.
well, as usual in the big grids, a couple of my last 12 were easy ones that I definitely entered already
typing too fast?
no, they take but then disappear
Oh I've had that happen. If you refresh your browser they usually reappear.
OK, now I'm stuck on the MO8
hello. late start for me, oh dear!
if you have the one du7, it has the same last 5 letters
you better get busy, trif!
indeed!
the last 5 letters of the DU7? Really? Not the DU8?
there are 2 DU7, one doesn't have an 8
Doh! Looking at the wrong DU7 of course.
it's a chemistry term
yeh, seems vaguely familiar. I took a lot of chemistry about 100 years ago
yeah, I took one class in HS and college and feels about that long ago. does not seem familiar to me.
done with the M's, onto the N's.
I made it 75 words in, but still not at nbt
Hmmm, those OO words. No ideas.
just monkeyed them
just found an incredibly obvious RE4,4.
Well, it's dinnertime and I have 27 left...back later
enjoy your dinner, joy!
uggggh - the letter i is always my nemesis!
this i took me a minute but they are all related so once you find one...
bye joy!
yup. there they are - were! down they fell. funny how strange they were to find today
down backward up, always tricky
truly
anything exciting on your weekend horizon, hokie?
just going camping Sat
hi hi
harry! how lovely!
hi hi HH
hi trif long time
that sounds like fun hokie! camping is on our list for sometime this summer
hi carla
I could not babble at work this year, Harry - cut WAY down on my play time!
ouch!
I have been off for about a month
end of year craziness
lolol - i have been off for two days!
we go to this one every summer, just outside the NC part of the Smokies. can tube from the park down into the campground.
oh that sounds amazing hokie!
you have been off school or off babble for a month? I think you have been off babble for a month but read it first as out of school.
off babble for about a month I think
my "hot" score is 0.
oh yes hokie that must be it - harry was off BABBLE for a month, not school! I misread it
that's hot
ah now it makes sense trif.
yes only off school for a couple days
sorry for being a densa candidate there for a sec
I was only on a one year contract, so I have a fun summer of job searching ahead, tra la la.
ugh
200 resumes for every job, let's all cheer
OK, I'm back after a delicious Chinese takeout dinner and I'm going to make short work of the rest of the S words!
rehi, joy
go joy go!
good luck with the search, trif
thx hokie. a HUGE part of me hopes the school where I was gets a spot for me after all. LOVED it there
Hi Tri...job hunting?
yes. ugh
my condolences. one of my least favorite things to do.
thank you. agreed
anyone else watching the olympic trials right now? so excited
oooh, a nice soft rain just started here! nice to not have to water tomorrow
I have watched some, but not all of the trials, hokie.
I get way too invested - oh those poor souls who just miss out!
we are mostly watching track, which is on now
I couldnt hear it even if I was watching - hubs is SNORING, omg....
its a wonder I heard the rain....
and I wonder, still I wonder...
as my son heard it....who'll stop Lorraine?
making no progress. listing my last 66.
LOL
nice mondegreen
One of the most misheard songs of all times is also by CCR.
harry, it was very slow for me around then
bathroom on the right
lolololol
mondegreen is SUCH a good word!
agreed
I should have put it on the "word nerd" board I had this year....next ime
but enable disagrees
yes
I will happily share the favorite word nerd listing of the past year - oh it was a HIT!!! The tiny crumbs left over on a table after eating are called.....tittynopes. Truly.
I've heard that John Fogerty sometimes sings "there's a bathroom on the right" because he thinks it's funny.
tittynopes?
tittynopes.
that's a new one on me
8th graders could not say it enough
that tracks
well, I'm going to try to go to sleep tonight before 2am so I guess I better go. buenos noches.
night carla
bye carla
just got mo8 - actually a word I use regularly!
I think I will toddle off as well. precious little chance of sleeping with buzzsaw mcgraw next to me, but he is a dear in every other way, so I will try
good night all.
bye trif
night night
night tri
I'm off too...see you all at the flip, maybe
bye joy
