just had to stop and provide added nerdery
And I must leave for work. Ciao.
ciao a dopo!

work cancelled here, wish they had decided that BEFORE i got up and got ready
still, nice to be cuddling with a cat instead :)
top row grey!
second row grey!
whooot go Hurshy!!
ah but now i've hit the K, lol
but in case it ever comes in handy, i just discovered through a mistype that "krooni" is a word
interesting... the first length of words i have finished is 5s
ok now 4s too
leaving 4 6s, 1 7, 1 8, and both 9s
got the 8!
with a 9!
got the 7!
alright so the other 9 is either a D or a K. hopefully D.
have never seen a babble play-by-playe before ... go hurshy!
ah, well, i do it not un-often
esp when nobody is chatting. i have to keep myself company.
how's you, bojazz?
understand...
i be good...
good, good
i think i will get the list for these 3
aha, the 9 IS a D, and it's a normal word, too!
Any clues for the D 9? Not seeing it.
With di9 you will find it
Hmmm.... I need it too
lol, nice clue molly
I had that 9, haven't found the other one yet
The other one is not so normal
Monkeyed it!
Clue please?
The ce has a robot ending
the c9 has a robot ending. Used morewords and got celluloid. That's not a word here
Starts with most of money
a penny robot
Ce works off of the small coin.
Wow, that is a barrage of clues
'morning, babblers
hi Welki!
(And no one pointing out that the use of morewords didn't work because the ce9 is a pl.)
ty Bea, mark
yw
thanks here too
Thanks
I'm not sure I understand about the use of morewords didn't work. The ce9 is in morewords. Are you saying the clue should have been penny robots?
Or maybe plural robot ending?
I'm saying that if she typed in that the word was 9 letters and ended in -oid, the word would not come up. But hey, I could be wrong; I've never actually used morewords, so that was just my understadning of how it works based on what people say.
Oh I get it. That is why one person said they got celluloid. It was the not mentioning plural.
If you type ce------- in morewords, the ce9 comes up.
ty for the ce8
9 too
Right, but I gather she typed in ce----oid and got celluloid. But in any case, everyone got it in the end and lived happily ever after.
first column e stats pls?

nbt/nbs
26 - got all my 7s! but missing one 8.
nm! got the last 8 :)
had to extend my last 7.
20 to go. bbl.
missing just one, a K6
NTPN French fashion house
ke6.36, mael
name that pelvic floor exercise
Hah! I just tried it.
I tried it too!
That ke6 is very similar
in the grid, or sitting in your chair? 😜
both
:)
same here. Figured it didn't work in the grid, but why not while I have it in my mind?
just scheduled my booster shot
How can you get it so soon?
Got mine on Sunday. Sore arm, no other effects
I thought I got a thing from NC HD that everyone could get one now if it's been 6 mos. but my HBP counts as an underlying condition.
which one did you get, dorens?
Age + COPD in this case
Moderna. I was waiting for the 50% shot and glad I did
yeah, I'm getting moderna
I'm still waiting for them to drop the age.
How are you finding the sp bee this morning Hokie? Pangram is still elusive for me
Mom and Mr. Bea are scheduled. One for pfizer and one for moderna.
haven't looked at it yet. never made it to genius last night.
I hope my aunt takes my mom to get hers soon. I think they got their 2nd ones back in Jan or Feb
Hello - which d does the 9 come from please?
left d
Thanks
IMy second was 2/27 so I was gratified to get the booster before 10/27. If they hadn't approved the Moderna, I might have done like so many others and gone fore the Pfizer even though I wasn't technically eligible
Any clues for the d?
hi dorens
Hi Owl
di8/9 careful and persistant
my 2nd was 4/22, so I'm just squeaking past the 6 mos mark
I'm excited -- Going to see Dune this afternoonl First time in a movie theater since pre-COVID days
I'm sorry that is di9
There is no 8 with it.
But from everything I've heard, it really needs to be seen on the big screen. Uh Oh. PB for me
dune was pretty good! we watched it from the comfort of our own couch
I heard it was terrible
Hokie, I had heard that 8 months was the mark for Moderna. But I couldbe wrong
really?
did you see the first one?
the original?
yeah, a long time ago. Read a couple of the books too
I'm happy I got the Pfizer.. i also got my booster.. so feeling a lot better these days
I loved the book. First one had terrible reviews so I skipped it. I've heard great things about this one. And several folks have said it isn't so good from home.
it was just fine from home, but we have a big tv
I'm find watching most movies from home. My tv seems big enough for most things.. It's 50 inches and these days that isn't considered big.
the first one had me laughing
I mean, I hate loud booming theaters anyway, I'd much rather watch from home
well I looked at walgreens, a local pharm, my grocery store pharm, and my dr office group, and the NC HD website and everything I saw said 6 mos.
I'm glad it was fine for you mael. Maybe I could have watched from home, but too late now. Tickets purchased and plans made
i loved the book as well. but there are a couple of movies i
rather see first
Laughiing why, owl?
it was so bad it was funny. especially the sand worms
Ah. I get that.
it was the 80s, even serious movies were ridiculous
I even had to enter the date of my last shot when I booked the one.
hah. true
was sting in that one
as far as I know it's six months here in MA, but only if you're over 65, have a preexisting condition, or work at a high risk place
i want to see lamb and the duel movie
I don't know if I can stomach the duel one
I'm sure that's true that it's 6 months. I think what I read was a long time ago, not the actual rules, but when they were still formulating advisory
Same here, mael. I live with high risk people. You would think I could get one due to that.
finally got that ke6!
yeah, that's what I was thinking, bea
last saturday was first house party with shared food. small but still quite the change
clue please?
me too! FW!
well done
bowler, dorens
nice, mael. I'm down to 36 but will come back later for them
honestly, bea, have you ever smoked a cigarette? Because that counts as a preexisitng condition and I would go get one
maybe the frat boy in charge of the beer, dorens?
I qualify because of my asthma, but it'll be mid november before I'm due
or bea's clue with the actual definition
thanks, hc - got it
doren is from Nj. bowlign is our state sportn ;)
lol, mael...I think it was 50 cigarettes, because one of my friends was talking about doing that back before she could get one last winter
Ah, but I was never good at it, owl
cigarettes or joints or whatever ;)
i spent a year on the team in college
gee, mael, that cigarette thing was not counted in pa , but was in jersey
and i saw you in yesterday's grid
good for you owl, I didn't even know we had a bowling team. But then again I didn't know very much about what was going on at school then.
I have a relative I don't know well who is a college bowling coach. I had no idea there were college bowling teams until I heard that.
I will see if I can schedule it with Mom's.
it was interesting. i remember traveling to penn state. b
gotta go. happy babbling
bye happy babbling . enjoy the movie
bye dorens!
bye all, I'm heading out too!
bea, I think with HIPAA they aren't allowed to ask for proof of an underlying condition, so you could just say you have one
bye mael!
(it's true, they won't ask you)
I can say I work in a nursing home...Truth.
i ade an appointment the first day and got one. are they rationing shots where you live? before this they couldn't give them away
you have my blessing to get that booster however you can, bea!
i just wanted to get i before they lowered the age
my blessing, too. someone who is a caregiver living with 2 high-risk people should get one.
I have to have a tooth extracted next week...boohoo...
ugh
I'm off to be productive...
bye bea
i am not seeing that di 9
With some di9, I am sure you will
my mind is poisoned with it being digitalis.
You should use caution and perform due di9 on your vendors.
ah
should have seen that with my recent events. the DD fee is very big in real estate here.
ah.. thank you molly.. just didn't see the third letter
It's one of those up down all around words
yeah, I wasn't seeing that 3rd letter either
i usually like those
I usually don't
finally got HOET
never mind, I missed that middle row D
HOET!
good morning everyone :) Ty for the di 9 Molly
wouldn't a locksmith be a keyist? or maybe a piano player.
hey nan
28 to go and half of them are 4's, so getting the monkeys warmed up
25 left here with 8 4's
I'm still trying to figure out how you all went from a bowler to a pelvic floor exercise. : P
I did NTPN of pelvic floor exercise and bea said the bowler was a similar word
*Imagines a group of women, standing around at a college kegger, secretly flexing.

no idea on the exercise guru, but a famous fashion designer from Normandy is there
Hello all Have been off here for 2 weeks. Have been visiting family, then friends in 2 different states. Back In Nashville until Thanksgiving. Sadly, I'm no better on this game, but I certainly enjoy the hints, and the chat!
it's Kegel, nan. no idea on the fashion designer
Dior

Yes - his house is now a museum

Wow, that Dior museum is a gorgeous piece of property

yes - unfortuneately I was so thirsty by the time I had hiked down the path to the beach, that I took some water from a drinking fountain down there --- big mistake!
oh no, stomach troubles?
what's the stat for the other 9?
in spades -- found out how wonderful french doctors in rural areas are though. We had to spend an extra day in Honfleur which would have been no hardship if I had been feeling better. Everyone from the hotel concierge, to the doctor, to one of the local restaurat owners were absolutely wonderful.
what was in the water there? giardia? something else?
ce 8-9
don't know -- got an intestinal infection from it
is the ce word something I should know?
Doubtful
ok, good to know, thx
if you are familiar with money that has artificial intelligence
Oh look, Nan sneaked in a clue even though you didn't ask for one
fine with me
once you said it was doubtful I would know it I gave up trying
got it, thx, nan

Since it's Halloween week...Rob Zombie is doing a movie version of "The Munsters"
rob zombie??
Yeah, he's a heavy metal guy. Used to be in White Zombie
ah, ok...not familiar with anything heavy metal...
rehi! what was that horror movie he redid, molly?
hi carla...
hey pen, I'm all boosted up now
nice!...
how did your tennis go?
it was fine, my friend is very beginner so we just hit some groundstrokes and practiced some serves and stuff
ah....relaxing play....
Rob Zombie did a remake of Halloween
He has done a bunch of horror movies.
it was that one? and does that count as part of the Halloween canon?
ah, not my thing either...
I love a good scary movie. but no one else around me does, so I have to watch them by myself.
I watched Carrie over the weekend to get in a Halloween frame of mind. Oooooooo.
well, just took a stab at one of my D's and it worked
haven't seen that in a while
The scariest movie ever for me was The Exorcist. I slept with the lights on for a month.
I was going to watch the original Friday the 13th on hulu but then realized it was on demand from SyFy and therefore edited.
not sure I've ever seen that
I wouldn't mind watching the original Halloween again.
Molly, me too!!!
what's crazy is a lot of these I was watching when I was like 10
The music still gives me chills!!
The Exorcist is not as scary now as it was back in the seventies
I used to say Amityville Horror was the scariest book I've ever read until I read I'll Be Gone in the Dark.
ok, we are going to hit some pickleballs. guess I'll be back later for my last 4.
have fun...
The scariest book I've read was Red Dragon. Prolly the timeframe in my life, tho, lol.
well i am heading out....bbl to finish...bye all....

Hello everyone! Can I please have a clue for the ke6/36?
I did not understand the pelvic floor exercise clue given.
Semi-phantom word for me is "kindergarten". Not sure if anybody else noticed or if that is just the teacher in me.
it's actually some kind of bowler, minver. I said it was like the frat boy in charge of the beer.
Thank you hokie carla. I am about my start my commute back home. Will continue to look for it when I get home.
Fireworks. Happy babbling everyone!
hi all help with di9 please
just popped in for a sec - but I don't have it yet, peri. Hopefully someone will clue it for you!
when purchasing a home, be sure to do your due di9/78
ty Cathy, great clue
excellent clue, cathy!
Why thank you. :-)
is your dog a shi tzu? my havanese looks amost identical, but she has a longer snout.
He was a shi tzu/lhasa apso mix. Sadly he passed years ago. I have 2 kitties now. lol
oh, sorry to hear it, Cathy. I had my yellow lab in my profile picture for years. She passed 2 years ago. But cats are certainly less work, and equally good at sitting in laps :)
Agreed...definitely less work. Sorry about your lab.
(back to work, *poof*)
Tx for di9!!
here is a funny. we've had "usnea" many times. and i just happened to find out what it is, it is a type of lichen that grows on trees. and earlier today, i was clearing branches from the yard and i was looking at this stuff on some of them and thinking how pretty it was. and then it just so happens i find out that it is usnea that very same evening!
that's cool, Hurshy!

Hi Babblers! Back here waiting for the flip. Did I just see someone say that cats are less work than dogs? As the slave of three cats and former dog owner, I stronglly disagree!
Hi Jacula. How are you these days?
