Clues are up

12:20 am

thanks, lickety

12:22 am

sigh. again fooled by seeing yoyo

12:26 am

what's that left Y? I've made up some really exotic words for it, but no luck so far. (it's not yooly, haha!)

12:26 am

it's like a typo of a type of "singing"

12:26 am

yo 5

12:27 am

thanks! :)

12:27 am

zo 8, excessive attention to animals

12:28 am

and that puts me at nbt, now I only need the darn big one.

12:28 am

same. I think that must be a typo, too. Maybe for an 8 :-)

12:30 am

thanks for zo 8, that also found me id 8

12:31 am

thanks indeed for that zo8.

12:32 am

needle case is there

12:32 am

hear

12:32 am

oops

12:38 am

nbt/nbs...th 8 and 9 state of bondage/slavery

12:38 am

thanks so much!

12:40 am

Huh. Thanks for those!

12:43 am

ty - took me a bit, but I found it

5:54 am

No one is here? Where is my morning buddy IG?

5:59 am

Morning, Scrabs!

5:59 am

Hi Une. Still blazing hot there?

6:00 am

Toasty and humid, yeah :-)

6:01 am

Stay hydrated.

6:01 am

Yep

6:01 am

Rain would be soooo welcome.....

6:03 am

We have had a VERY rainy summer, more than we need.

6:04 am

Feel free to send some my way :-)

6:04 am

I wish we could redirect our rain to drought areas.

6:31 am

Off to work. Bye.

7:07 am

Our missing babbler is in the grid today.

7:08 am

and it's a real word too!

bea was just trying to trick us into the penalty box

7:09 am

Just making an observation. =)

7:14 am

That Y makes things interesting today.

7:17 am

Man, the way you all are going on about "missing" his picture is going to end up on a milk carton

7:21 am

I always have to try "tuit".

7:21 am

I will get around tuit.

7:28 am

Ugh, it used to be a thing at corporate "motivational meetings" to hand our round buttons that said TUIT. Get it, a round tuit.

7:28 am

Yep.

7:29 am

Same meetings where you had to partner up with someone and fall and let them catch you. Again, ugh.

7:29 am

Is mt new icon showing?

And there is no "I" in team. Until I saw that graphic where there is an I in team, right there in the A-hole

7:30 am

So many a-holes, so few places to hide

https://www.neatorama.com/images/2012-\n06/i-in-team.jpg

7:31 am

That link will not work unless you remove the \n

how did it get in? I just copied the link

7:34 am

I think it

7:35 am

I think it's something the chat adds into long web addresses

7:35 am

\n is used as a character code for a new line

7:37 am

But in some cases it may need to be combined with \r for a "return" (a leftover from the typewriter days, I think)

tinyurl to the rescue https://tinyurl.com/5b2b45wj

7:41 am

It is a coding error that Dr. God has been made aware of but has not fixed. Tiny url is your best bet.

oh, i thought it was a feature he added to keep the chat from blowing 🤣

7:42 am

Nope. The chat still blows if too many characters get posted without a space

7:44 am

Oh lucky Florida. All that COVID and now...Fred.

is Fred a TS or hurricane?

7:44 am

It is still a tropical depression I think

(was hoping I guessed right)

7:45 am

It is supposed to be an active year for hurricanes.

7:46 am

I also read to day that pediatric wards are full of covid patients.

7:46 am

What is the hold up on vaccines for kids?

7:46 am

They are still in clinical trials i believe.

7:48 am

Bea...I heard the same about hurricanes, but not so much has happened yet. Fingers crossed!

7:48 am

It's still early.

7:49 am

Halfway!

7:49 am

Well, it seems ridiculous for kids to be going back to classroom education with pediatric COVID on the rise

7:51 am

Guess what is the best way to protect children from covid?

masks?

7:53 am

Parents have the vaccine.

oh, yes.

7:54 am

A lot of the ped cases are in those states that have low adult vaccines.

7:55 am

And I'm glad the state governments are now saying you have to pay for covid testing if you have not been vaccinated.

7:55 am

Good morning, all.

7:56 am

Hey, Judi

7:59 am

MMM...one of my favorite candies is in the grid and it is a word.

I should maybe put my glasses on. thought that said candles and was trying to figure out what that could be.

8:02 am

Second day in a row we have had caca.

I know, I wondered if babble was telling us something

8:08 am

An 8-letter Z word. That's just cruel.

8:08 am

Anyone have a clue for that Z8?

it was easy to find because someone said it led them to the id8

8:09 am

Yes...Worship of animals

8:10 am

I think this entire grid is cruel.

yeah, I'm struggling to get halfway on each tile. currently on the A

8:12 am

Ty for the Z.

8:12 am

yw

8:14 am

44 left in the bucket. Off to do some work stuff.

8:24 am

*Wonders how many people tried caca

I saw the 8/9 is TH. is that from the bottom or the top T?

8:37 am

top

hmm, so not related to temp. like long johns word.

8:38 am

No. Means to be under someone's control

oh yeah, I rem. that clue now. didn't help when I first saw it. will try again.

8:39 am

Ends with the last three letters of where a king reigns.

thanks, bea. got them

8:39 am

ty - never would have gotten that

8:39 am

We usally see the first part start with en-

8:40 am

It was a tough one...

8:40 am

I'm off for the day...Toodles.

8:40 am

bye bea

adios, beachacha

still 61 left here after 1st pass. definitely tough for this size.

8:42 am

almost done with my first pass. still missing the top Y though

it looks like a type of singing but spelled differently

I'm still missing top O

8:43 am

top O uses high pt ltr

8:44 am

ty for Y

thanks

kept trying to make it -ily

8:46 am

OK. halfway on all tiles. 60 to go

8:46 am

gotta go buy school supplies. ugh

60 now but not halfway on bottom E

you should just come look in my kitchen desk drawer

are these for your classroom or your kids?

8:47 am

for my kids.

8:47 am

its always such a hassle going through the old stuff and figuring out what is missing/broken/unusable

8:48 am

and the (*$&&$ school always wants different stuff each year

every year we had a list, bought everything from the list and then leftovers were sent home and I saved them so now I have all kinds of different stuff.

and yes, you are correct!

8:48 am

this year it's dividers with pockets. I am refusing. They will use last year's dividers, without pockets.

just make pockets - fold a piece of paper in half and tape it on last year's dividers

8:49 am

a hole punch for each kid? are you kidding me? the teacher punches holes in the papers when she copies it!

8:50 am

ok now I'm on a tear. gotta get coffee. bbl!

how many kids do you have left in school? just the one in college?

8:50 am

1 in college, 2 in high school, 2 in middle school

8:50 am

just the MS kids get lists. the big kids just want spiral notebooks and pens.

good luck in your school supply shopping

yeah, I think that's how it was here

8:51 am

thank you - have a fun day!

you too!

9:30 am

ooh, found an i8! Should have been obvious for me but here we are. :/

9:31 am

Dauber, could you clue the i8? TYVM

9:32 am

id8/55

9:32 am

I should have been able to spot it easily given that I went to Catholic school for 16 years!

9:32 am

What a great word for Babble.

9:36 am

greetings from my sister's computer

9:36 am

as mine died last night

9:42 am

There will be a wake for Hurshy's computer in the PB. Food, drink and Irish song provided.

9:43 am

thank you Molly, that's very kind :)

9:43 am

*Brushes off the lyrics to The Night Pat Murphy Died. Changes them to The Night Hurshy's Computer Died.

9:44 am

I can't remember if I cried When I read about his widowed bride But something touched me deep inside The night...Hurshy's computer...died

9:45 am

lol

9:48 am

Are you shopping for a new one?

9:48 am

already ordered, last night

9:49 am

mine was old and had been quite sluggish for a while, so i was already thinking about getting a new one, but, this sort of just forced me into actually spending the $$

9:49 am

but the actual death was quite sudden and without warning, it was very weird

9:49 am

did we ever find mool?

9:50 am

pb

9:51 am

didnt know it was a word sorry

9:51 am

:D

9:51 am

weird huh?

9:51 am

yeah

9:53 am

What did you get Hursh?

9:54 am

macbook air with M1 chip

9:54 am

Sometimes, people just stop playing the game.

9:54 am

Oh, well I hope you like it. I know nothing about Macintosh. Except they are very expensive.

Ive got the Air, Hurshy, and love it

9:55 am

idk, when i looked up other quality laptops it seemed like the prices were the same

9:55 am

yep MacBook equals not cheap

9:55 am

i had an air already, just, from some years ago

almost to the level of ID8/55. :)

9:57 am

The thing about Macs and the expense -- they're so worth it. And truthfully, a PC with the equivalent power, graphics, sound, etc., under the hood, would be just about the same.

9:57 am

that's what i seemed to be finding dauber, price-wise, yeah

9:57 am

People who have Macintosh seem very stuck on them. Same the other way around. I am all Windows. I tried using Mac once and hated it.

9:57 am

Of course, I went to Mac from...Amiga...which was ALWAYS expensive.

9:58 am

i see we have those ih words today :P

9:58 am

dauber was that a clue for the id8 about Catholic schools?

9:58 am

Yup!

9:58 am

Commodore, wow that is a blast from the past

9:59 am

Thing is...Amiga is still made and supported! It's hella expensive though.

9:59 am

i had a commodore i loved that computer

hurshy, I just got a new macbook for my birthday in Apr, and that replaced one I had for 9 years!! I would never go back to Windows

10:00 am

Hella?

10:00 am

Heh. My current MacBook replaced a 9-year-old one...and that one still worked! It was just getting long in the tooth.

10:00 am

it's the latest slang, molly, keep up :D

10:00 am

dauber can you expand on it a bit more pls?

10:00 am

my brother & I saved our money for a Commodore Vic 20 back in the day

10:00 am

Okay...I learned in Catholic school that id8/55 is a sin.

10:00 am

I try not to accommodate the slang of the teenagers. It is so unbecoming on women of a certain age.

10:01 am

um, No Doubt has a song called Hella Good from 2001, so I'd hardly say it's the latest

10:01 am

time, uh, flies

10:01 am

No Doubt? You seriously think I follow No Doubt?

10:01 am

ty dauber.. thinkng....

10:01 am

(And I'm hardly a teenager. :) )

10:01 am

BTW, the z8 is very similar to the id8

10:02 am

That is what I meant. Elders using teen slang seems so...weird

10:02 am

Oh, I totes agree.

10:02 am

dauber, just saw your post about a 9 year old mac. mine still worked too, just the keyboard started acting wonky. I wiped it and gave it to my son to mess around with and it seemed to fix the keyboard. he said it was faster than his much newer PC

10:02 am

z8, good golly

10:03 am

back from a disgusting walk in the soup outside for my last 57

10:04 am

'morning, peeps

10:04 am

I know Carla. The air is so thick you can barely breathe.

10:05 am

any clues for the tr8 ?

10:06 am

winston is panting heavily and wondering around looking for the coolest spot

10:06 am

I guess that's my last one suzee. no clue yet.

10:06 am

got the zo8 from Morewords

10:06 am

tr8...three prefix + alt spelling of Lucy Ricardo's friend

10:07 am

and the id8! ty dauber

10:07 am

ah, a twofer. thanks

10:07 am

thx molly

10:08 am

ty molly

10:08 am

I think what Carla means is she got two words from that clue.

10:08 am

dang it all, yoyo has a hyphen i guess

10:09 am

yeah i keep hoping that would work lol

10:09 am

yes, and twofer is actually allowed by enable

10:09 am

I had the last part..would've never thought of adding that prefix to it tho

10:09 am

I think yoyo not only has a hyphen but is a brand name

10:09 am

The yo-yo thing is another one that comes up every single time it is in the grid.

10:11 am

or maybe not brand name. wikipedia page uses it as common noun. but maybe it lost its brand name-ness like xerox, kleenex, etc

10:14 am

*Bets Dauber says "Yo" too : D

10:14 am

2nd column y stats pls and a clue for the 9 pls?

10:14 am

Like, yo its totes hella hot today

10:15 am

truer words...

10:15 am

I have ya4 and ye4 mlfan

10:15 am

sorry i gtg bye will be back

10:15 am

10:15 am

my clue for the 9 is it's a plural

10:17 am

... so tr8 & 9?

10:18 am

TH

10:18 am

Molly just made my brain hurt :D

10:19 am

oh right we got the tr

10:19 am

rem. the steward of gondor? he was under a TH8 you might say

10:20 am

ah thanks, didn't know that would be spelt with just one L

10:20 am

well, when you click on the def. it isn't

10:21 am

but enable loves a good alt sp

10:21 am

indeed

10:28 am

hello all...

10:28 am

hey pen

10:28 am

hi pen

10:30 am

Hi pen

10:30 am

how's loki doing, ori?

10:31 am

He's becoming a wine connesieur

10:32 am

well, he's got the nose for it :)

10:32 am

connoisseur?

10:33 am

yes i think that's right

10:33 am

glad I'm not in any spelling bees

10:33 am

Wait, are we talking about a dog?

10:33 am

yes

10:33 am

well, I'm pretty sure not Loki of Asgard

10:34 am

A dog who drinks wine?

10:34 am

well.. more like he likes to go bowling with bottles

10:35 am

Loki is still crazy. He knocked into the side table I keep bottles on and three were broken.

10:35 am

*note to self... wrap ori's bottles in bubble wrap before delivering*

10:36 am

He looks kind of crazy if that is him in your icon photo

10:36 am

that's another dog molly loki is a puppy beagle

10:36 am

This is why cheap drunks have it made. Your dog can't break the wine box.

10:37 am

but they can drag them out in the sun :D

10:38 am

Speaking of wine, what is the shelf life of an unopened bottle bought in a liquor store?

10:38 am

He just jumped up on my desk and spilled a cup of tea all over the place.

10:38 am

hey, I actually found a compound word on my own today!

10:39 am

is the trainer coming back? *lol*

10:39 am

depends on the wine molly what is it?

10:39 am

She had to cancel, welki, because she was sick. I hope she comes soon :D

10:40 am

I don't know. Someone asked me that earlier and I was like "oh yeah, like I know about wine"

10:40 am

how old is he? we found this book helpful. https://tinyurl.com/9fkz7mt9

10:41 am

Okay, I just asked and the answer I got was "I don't know. Some bottle of red the wife bought years ago".

10:42 am

have you tried one of those leashes that runners use that goes around your waist? to keep him near at all times.

10:42 am

depending on where it's been stored and the varietal it's likely ok

10:43 am

So Origami, you are paying someone to train your dog?

10:43 am

anyone have the th7 that comes right before the 8 and 9?

10:43 am

Thanks Ru

10:43 am

nope

10:43 am

yes.. she needs help.. this is a wild one

10:44 am

I am sure they are all related but i dont have them. Sorry

10:44 am

A wild beagle?

10:44 am

Wine lasts forever i believe, if unopened.

10:44 am

not true mkg

10:45 am

"wild beagle". That's a redundancy for sure!

10:45 am

Oh no it doesn't. I have had some that tasted like vinegar.

10:45 am

oho i got that 6 & 7

10:46 am

I recall a tour my hubby and i had to a wine cellar that is the #3 largest in the world. It had bottles hundreds of years old. Unopened. The collection was worth many millions of dollars supposedly. It was in a restaurant in the carribean but i dont recall which island…..

10:46 am

I think the vinegar is if somehow air gets in.not sure.

10:47 am

depends on the kind of wine, mkg....and how it's stored...

10:47 am

Any hints for the tr 7 and 8 and 9?

10:48 am

Yes, I am getting a trainer to help me. He's completely wild. The shelter said 3 years old, but I really think he's much younger than that.

10:48 am

some wines can age for over a hundred years, but not too many types

10:49 am

Ty. I am not a wine connoseiur.

10:49 am

Cant get those tr words.

10:50 am

mkg, I would really trust what ru says. Wine is his business.

10:50 am

there's only tr8, it's th that has the 6, 7, and 8, 9 combos

10:51 am

I am sure ru is correct. What do i know. Didnt know wine is his business. I am sure he is right.

10:51 am

Th?????oh it was clued way back as tr. ty for the correction.

10:52 am

Any clues for the th leading to the 9?

10:52 am

wines like Ports, Certain great bordeaux (especially sweet wines like Sauternes), Madieras, can age for 50-150 years. the others a lot less

10:52 am

first column y is ye 4?

10:52 am

How about box wine that gets hot, ru :D

10:52 am

Would never have a problem with a bottle of wine going bad in this house. If it's here, it'll be opened and consumed.

10:52 am

Ty ru. Do you know of this wine celler i was at?

10:53 am

it's gone the minute it gets hot ;D

10:53 am

mkg i think its pl?

10:53 am

yes.. i read about that place.. I think it was Aruba ?

10:54 am

i found a th 6/7

10:55 am

People who drink screw-top never worry about the age of the wine : D

10:55 am

Cant recall………but the house is now a restaurant and was built by the pirate black beard……..famous house as well. And dinner was amazing. And the owner was there and he offered my hubby port and my hsuband said it was the best port he ever had.

10:55 am

Screw top wine is usually cheap and not good right?

10:55 am

i've had wines from the 1800s some are still amazing

10:56 am

no.. not all screw tops wines are cheap.. it's considered a good enclosure of late for a lot of fine wines.

10:56 am

That is THe Hammock House in North Carolina

10:56 am

I think screw top is becoming more norm and acceptable

10:56 am

their is a wine for 15 bucks(price i have seen online) called Rock Rabbit

10:57 am

Interesting.

10:57 am

Mad Dog 20/20 is norm and acceptable. Who knew?

10:57 am

Still not seeing the th leading to the 9. Hints welcome. Is it two words?

10:58 am

It's one word.

10:58 am

Related to slavery.

10:58 am

still need stats for first column y and the o in the 2nd column that is directly above the L

10:59 am

yo 5/16...

10:59 am

oy 4/6, i think....

11:00 am

if you are under someone's spell you are en-. a king rules over a ___. smush those 2 together.

11:00 am

Tranced and country…..hgmmmmm

11:01 am

Thanks, hokie.

11:01 am

my __ for a horse!

11:01 am

I got them. Oh my gosh. Ty so much carla.

11:01 am

np

11:02 am

kingdom for a horse?

11:02 am

ty, carla....i actually understood those clues... ;o)

11:02 am

thank you so much for saying so, pen 🤣

11:02 am

MLF....the last part is at the end of the word....

11:03 am

ok

11:03 am

You lost me at the under someone's spell part. I think of that word differently.

11:03 am

interesting

11:03 am

Again, it is not a great idea to put your guesses in the chat.

11:04 am

did you like my lord of the rings clue to hurshy?

11:05 am

*Faints* Carla actually spelled out Lord of The Rings

11:05 am

you gotta read the room

11:06 am

good point...

11:06 am

heyer - one who yells hey at people

11:07 am

No, that is Jersey speak Heyer doon? (How are you doing)

11:07 am

gross

11:08 am

*Fears that all the Jersey players will now become offended and start protesting with JERSEY LIVES MATTER signs

11:09 am

True story: New Jersey 101.5 had a promo that consisted of a bunch of callers saying "Howya doin'"...and then there was a lady who said "Hi! How are you?" Then crickets.

11:11 am

Okay, people in general need to eat more fiber if they are now making toilet seats with lumbar support. Who sits on the toilet long enough to need lumbar support?

11:12 am

trump does

11:12 am

except he's not tweeting lately

11:13 am

he doesnt have a twitter account anymore does he or did they give it back because he isnt the president anymore?

11:13 am

well, I have made it to 30 left but this is the worst. have grayed 10 tiles but still have a few with a lot of words left.

11:13 am

he's been banned for a long time mlf

11:13 am

that is what i thought

11:13 am

i have 8 left but considering listing

11:14 am

I'm surprised he has any crap left in him after he finishes spewing his garbage

11:14 am

I will never understand the appeal of Twitter

11:14 am

good morning everyone :)

11:14 am

agreed cyber

11:16 am

hi nan...

11:16 am

See, I knew people would keep complaining about Trump after he left The White House

11:16 am

I hate news articles that just show tweets from people. such lazy journalism.

11:17 am

if I wanted to read tweets I would be on twitter

11:18 am

i agree Carla

11:18 am

ru, did you finish the D? I need one and it's very elusive.

11:18 am

ugh, i canNOT think of a pangram for the spelling bee today

11:18 am

and don't tell me it's a do5

11:18 am

do you have do4/12, hokie?

11:19 am

11:23 am

oh, and it was do4/12, thx

11:23 am

spelling bee is hard today

11:23 am

11:24 am

ty hurshy

11:24 am

11:25 am

finally have all tiles down to 4 or less

12:30 pm

I was just going to make a joke about zo8, and then decided on a whim to try and enter it first, and lo and behold!

12:31 pm

don't think I know any zo 8 words -- compound? having to do with a bunch of animals?

12:32 pm

you know the id8?

12:32 pm

no - only have 3x id4

12:33 pm

extend one of them so it has to do with a commandment. then that will give you zo8 as well

12:34 pm

thx hh! that greyed out 2 tiles!

12:34 pm

huh, I didn't know the zo8 was a thing

12:34 pm

me neither! heh

12:34 pm

ty harry - a 2fer :)

12:35 pm

I see we need 2 tiaras for the grid today -- zo 4 and mo 4

12:36 pm

maybe mo 4 got tired of us -- haven't seen him for ages

12:36 pm

I think he's on a long vacation

12:36 pm

but who knows - for me vacations means MORE babble, not less :)

12:39 pm

yeah, but I think he only plays at work so as to spend time with his daughter so maybe he said no to playing on vacation

12:39 pm

hopefully that's all it is

12:47 pm

40!

12:50 pm

wow, just got a phishing text pretending they were a credit card co. luckily I am too smart for them.

ty greyhound

iggy would you clue the single Y word 1st column

mis-spelled Swiss singing (?)

oh da lay DE HOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

OMG Lol

was that the word you needed?

5:49 pm

or, misspelled delicious little bad-for-you chocolate cake that was always in my lunchbox when I was a kid.

yes

dont know that one, Joy

oh i do joy! Ring dings, yo5s, Ho Hos, Devil Dogs, etc. All the yummy snack cakes.

5:50 pm

made by hostess, I think.

I think French should just entertain us with Yo---ing

yes i think Hostess

i love to sing! but why do people run away?

5:51 pm

one of the high points of my dismal culinary childhood. My mother wasn't much of a cook, but she was good at buying junk food.

dont put junk food in my head or ill just end up at 7/11

my fav meal when dining at 7-11 is Big Gulp Coke and big bag of Fritos Scoops

good god! youre an animal

5:54 pm

I know what you mean. I now have a desperate urge for a package of YO5s, which I normally don't think about.

and a pint of Ben and Jerrys

5:55 pm

but corn, that's a vegetable, and cola beans are, what, seeds?

5:55 pm

Fortunately i live in san francisco, where everything is artisanal and organic and overpriced, so I probably couldn't find them.

mab i like the way you think

note to self: never go to San Fran again

my fav veg is in the grid

5:56 pm

be careful about ben and jerrys though, a nyt editorial writer did a whole column about them and their refusal to supply the occupied territories.

5:56 pm

The food here is great, Toast, just not the junk food.

5:57 pm

not sure what he wrote as i never ever read him.

Junk food is always good at the right time

well i must take a break, i have to pack for my weekend out of town

5:57 pm

I was just in Vermont a few weeks ago and went to the Ben and Jerry's factory. They weren't giving tours, but it was still a lot of fun.

BBL

i will yo5 for you then, iggy!

Bye FT

6:03 pm
