mi6 please
sorry don't have an mi6 yet
14 left bbs to finish
Hey, Mool, are you routing for the Bolts yet?
50...puttering
remarkable sweep oft he Panthers...thought they'd win that series, but to do it in 4 straight is pretty impressive
My Rangers still hanging in, though they'll really need to win again tonight, and then probably Thursday in Raleigh
And without Braden Point as well
Yes we do our best under pressure. Even if we dont win the cup I am proud of their playoff games. Super team. I suppose you saw the backward shot for a goal with 3.38 seconds left as the Panthers were looking for overtime. Never saw a shot like that in all my years. A birthday present for me as today is mine. Yes Poo
Pointer is one of my favorites but I think with all these days of rest, he will reemerge for the next round/
oh, happy birthday!
could have done without an almost 500 word grid however.
Well with some luck, the Rangers will meet the Bolts next round...not that I expect them to get past the Canes, but this Rangers team is odd, in that it finds ways to win even when it looks beaten
yeah, not really well rested enough to do this one
I would be happy for you. good luck and I will be keeping tabs on your game as well.
Game 4 tonight at MSG...hopefully can keep it going
Either way, I think Tampa would be favorites in the next round
Carolina lack finishing, though they can roll 4 lines...they do have an aggressive forecheck and a great PK, but their top offensive guys aren't playing well yet
they changed their plans of attack, blocking the lanes and it worked, keeping the panthers high scorers from so
scoring. sorry about the poor typing.
Yeah, the Rangers did pretty well against Florida this year, I think they were too one-dimensional
Amazing the panthers only managed three goals in four games. Of course we have Vasy the best goalie of all. Super human he is.
Rangers are pretty young, and they have some fundamental flaws...they're not a good puck possession team, though they can score in bunches...just not always predictable
The defensive side (despite finishing second in the league in GAA) is more because of Shesterkin than because the defensive posture of the team is good
Vast stopped 49 shots last night, a new record.
yeah, that was pretty insane
Vasy I mean
Not sure if you watched any of the Game 7 between Calgary and Dallas, but Oettinger was crazy good in that one
Shesterkin faced 83 shots in Game 1 of the first round...stopped 79
He's allowed 4 goals in three games against Carolina, and we're still trailing 2-1
maybe i mis heard the announcer last night about record goal stops. thank you for the birthday wishes.
I suspect it might be one of the following: Most stops in a series clinching game Most stops in a playoff shutout (though who knows on that one)
Will check it out.
they get very specific with records now-a-days
Hi all
FWs
mi6 please
nm
there's an MI6?
found it
would you mind cluing it joy? I don't see it
then I just found it never mind
another school shooting in Texas today. 14 elementary school children dead. I don't understand why people can't agree to some reasonable restrictions on guns. Those poor families.
And they're saying the shooter killed his grandmother before heading to the school :-(
so awful...
Heartbreaking....
Sounds like what happened in Sandy Hook 10 years ago
it's very similar to Sandy Hook, and the worst school shooting since
this grid just never ends ugh
breaking out of my lurkdom status: my daughter recently moved to Brussels with her five year old son--the US gun culture was one of the reasons. What will it take to have reasonable gun laws?
where in the U.S. was she living, emusing?
and you're right ruru, I've still got more than 100 words to go!
Joy, she was living in central PA.
Oh, yeh, rural PA is bad. When I lived in Philly the city council try to ban automatic weapons in the city, but the state legislature overturned it because it would "inconvenience hunters who might be passing through the city."
Yeah...her son (my apple of my eye) is getting a lot more culture in Brussels than he could ever get in central PA.
I'm sure, but sad that they're far away.
I wasn't thrilled she moved but I understood her reasoning and we are in almost daily touch, via email/text/video chat...we'll be seeing them this summer.
hi all, hope i'm gonna enjoy this one
It definitely doesn't go as quickly as yesterday's
gee i wonder why???? LOL
:)
halfway done, woot
nemesis (phantom)
gosh golly found a 9

Oh, the poor limper.

I hope so Mary. I did so little work today, because I've been doing this instead, but I can't do that again tomorrow.
sardine (phantom)

I have played the bee some. just at great tthough
I got the pangram first thing. the other day I couldn't find the pangram and still made genius.

weird how that works...
Hello, friends.
I think I might actually finish this beast. I am down to 6 words left!

wow, congrats, joy
Go Joy!

OMG I don't believe it fireworks!!!!!
Way to go JOY!!!!
Back for my final word, L12, after spending 8 hours pushing through nerve damage to my shoulder trying to finish off crocheting the background for my Platinum Jubilee project to be put on display this weekend. *Dives into depths of grid.*
I need a drink.
You can do it, jacula. You'll monkey it quickly.
The L12 is kind of ridiculous
Com;pletly agree!
Got it! Had to use morewords, but it's done. FIREWORKS!*~*~*~*
Still not sure if I'll finish my woolly Jubilee display background in time, but at least I've finished Babble. lol
Congrats!
Thanks. Does anyone need any clues since I'm all done now?
Done? Wow!!
Hi Une.x
congrats....wo 6/30?
Extend the 4/8
that is the 6 after the 7?
the one before
yes, but is that a clue for the wo 6 that comes after the wo 7?
penquis - wo6/30 - rather silly word really. Think of someone who came first, then substitute the vowel you think if should be for the vowel that comes after it.
I have a wo 6/30 and it's before the 7.
*it should be, I meant.
my wo 6 is after the wo 7....
penquis - I've clued for the only wo6.30.
jacula...i am not sure i understand your clue....
oh, I have that one, it is after a 4 and before a 5 on my list. but I still need 3.
no, there's another, like socks, jacula.
rhymes with one of santa's reindeer (maybe), pen
There are 2. The first one is like the person who comes in first in a race, change the first vowel.
Oh yes, hokie carla, the wrong spelling of something made of sheep fleece.
And there are actually 4 wo7
oh...ty champ...that did it...i am done...and thanks jacula and carla, too....
how is that wrong? that's the only way I've seen the sheep one
Fantastic! Great!
Good clue re the reindeer name, Holie Carla, Better than mine.
well done, pen
yes, gillie...four wo 7 and one wo 8....
only 155 to go here
yes, I haven't actually found a word since this morning, but I haven't actually looked.
i listed very early today...had to go to a school budget voting meeting and didn't get back until 8...
British spelling of the word, hokie carla. I am British.
can you just tell me the british spelling? that doesn't even show in the def.
Well done penquis!
ty...
congrats, pen
ty...
hokie carla - the British spelling has 2 'l's in it.
I understand you are british but I don't even know how you would make woolen british. yeah, I said it, put me in the penalty box. it's late in the evening.
ah, I knew it would be an extra letter somewhere but that didn't occur to me.
ok, I guess I should work on the middle row since I need 19 + 19 there.
lol, hokie carla. I do kind of know why US spelling differs from British spelling and why Canadian spelling is a bit of a mixture, but won't say for fear of offending anyone in this world that currently trys to deny historical facts. x
I listened to a podcast about it in the last year
but question, do you all really say "trys" instead of "tries"?
And there's me getting all hoity-toity re proper spelling and then I type 'trys' instead of 'tries'. Mind you, I am tired. lol
feels like it's the middle of the night for you
I typed when I realised my mistake at the same time as you were asking about it. lol
It's 2.54am here, so yes, it is night time.
well, this game does accept "drys" so who knows
Truth!
True, hokie carla. All kinds of weird spellings are accepted on here, or seem to be. But, often, when you look them up, there is a reason for them, or they don't mean what you think they do.
Why doesn't it take "spooner"? But it takes stupid variations. So dumb.
I certainly tried spooner
or they are not in the dictionary at all... ;o)
Champfit - I wondered that earlier.
well i am heading out...goodnight all....
'night pen
good night pen. have found 10 words now so only 145 left. 🤣
heh heh....bye....
Just because things aren't in on-line dictionaries, it doesn't mean that they are not real words somewhere in the world. Root dictionaries often show where words originated from. Having studied languages often helps with that.
'Night penquis. Dormez bien!
Anyone need clues now for the rest of the grid?
I'll muddle along. Down to 14. Congrats!
Okay ChampFit. Good hunting. I'll wander off to get some sleep now so I can crochet for another 8 hours later. D'you think if I emailed Buck House and asked them to give me a few more days to finish my Platinum Jubilee tribute that they would move the celebration weekend a week on? No, thought not! ROFLOL *Weeps*
You got this, my friend! Wishing you all the best!
Done, thank goodness! What a slog. Good luck to you all!
