hi de ho, Babblerinos!
Good morning!
hello everyone
xy 4, hi all
all over but the shouting, sue? Doesn't look like the queen made it to many of the events.
xy 5
It is, nan and no, she didn’t. It’s worrying when she didn’t even get to the Derby.
Clues are up
nbt, nbs
na 7
do7
not seeing them, but crashing now. Goodnight :)
ya rds
st7
FWs, last word fa 6
loads to go but I just got the fa6!
t re
Phantom "Lynx"
do4 is also a phantom in the sense that it is extinct *tee hee*
people liked it so much they ate them and their eggs, no more do44/5
do/4/5
Is the do7 a common word?
No
May I have a wee clue, please? :)
It's a fish. Spanish golden
ty bea
phantom farina
woot woot i found both x words!
Thank you!
yw
this grid is a little on the hard side
The X in the middle makes it interesting.
idk why it makes the right column disproportionately difficult
Uh, oh. Hurshy says the grid is a little on the hard side.
good morning all
Hi Nan. How are you today?
ok scrabbs, ty. Still having trouble sleeping, but don't want to take any sleeping pills if I can avoid it.
*hugs*
Do what works for you, Nan.
morning, everyone
Hi welki. Still in Saskatchewan?
some very, very strange words in this grid
Hi ruru
I'm already discouraged by the first D
Nope - we got home yesterday afternoon. We had such a good time :)
Nice, welki.
diving in with trepidation after scanning chat.. hi all
the x is used a lot more than you think in this grid
this week the boat goes on the lake and we might try float tubing (flyfishing) on a small lake
Hi carla and loy
but not sexy
*aloy
hey scrabbs, et al
(and maybe some golf. this is the first year in both of our lives that we can actually plan to have some fun)
Aloy, our Catholic school in town, St Aloyisius, is closing due to low enrollment.
astor
Not a word. Sorry.
aww, sorry to hear Scrabbs..
In a rural area it is tough to maintain a Catholic school.
well, finished the o on first look, so it was okay.
yes, the tuition ..
i'm not big on the catholic church you might have lower population growth in Buffalo now
And keeping teachers was tough.
I remember my MIL saying years ago they couldn't find any nuns in Va Beach for the schools
the times they are a changing
I work 35 miles south of Buffalo, in a poor farm town.
did the nuns fall out of the habit of teaching hokie?
Haha.
I guess you would say that
ok, ru.. add a groan
but I don't know enough nun puns to carry on, sorry
you missed a good clue pun I had last night
a groan or a wimple?
:D aloy
I passed halfway. Time to shop for my mom. See you tomorrow. FYI, my alter ego is Sister Mary Pediatrica.
lol hurshy.. good one
bye Scrabbs.. have a great Monday
bye scrabs
definitely not getting HOET today, I'm either graying tiles or only finding 1 or 2
want help?
I don't know what kind of help I need for this inability to see words. I have 2 left D's, 1 W, 7 R. did finally barely make half of other D and 2nd A
< just a's to go here
just found 3 d's, now have 5 total
did you get the gold dream city of El Do6, and plural
and the da4/6 babblet and plural
ty hurshy
too bad xray is hyphenated
no and maybe yes
thanks
ooh, ty hurshy
there are 3 ri and 11 ro
all Rs are 4s and 5s
ok, found another W for half there
I decided to work down the columns today since across the top row was so frustrating
might be listing for the last 50 today
I quit yesterday at 30 left, may be sooner today
this is a tougher grid.. but doable
what's the x stats? ain't nobody got time for this.
you would think so bc so many words are short ones.. first run half done
found one
ntpn: city in WA
lol -- except it is a phantom :)
so, I can name any city? seattle
nope -- it was astoria until I had a 2nd look
ah, the goonies town
why is it called that?
we almost have an NC town too. I better say it since no one will guess - swannanoa
do you remember the 80s movie, the goonies? your kids probably saw it. pretty sure it was set in astoria.
never heard of it, carla
swannanoa sounds like a waterfowl buffalo cross
goonies or swannanoa?
I'm going to guess swannanoa is an indian/native american word/name
never heard of a movie entitled goonies
oh, looks like there's one in new zealand too, will have to ask moo next time he's on
well, the movie has Josh Brolin and Sean Astin, both from Hollywood families and still famous actors today.
it's a movie about the republican party nan
don't listen to ruru, it's about a group of kids who identify as goonies who are about to lose their houses so they go on a treasure hunt
and never mind, it is astoria, OR, not WA
ok, swannanoa is named after the river that goes through it. swannanoa, NZ, was named by an american who settled there and named it after the river in NC.
OH is Astoria on the OR side of the river? Just remember a column commemorating something and a huge bridge over the Columbia
no idea, just no the astoria I was talking about is in OR
I have never been to WA
in OR, I have been to Bend and drove there from Crescent City, CA.
and of course I meant "know" below, geez.
The Goon Docks was definitely in Astoria.
yes, but was astoria only in OR or is there one in WA like nan remembers?
It's in Oregon
have you seen the goonies then, molly?
Many times
I mean, I would be surprised if you hadn't
I lived in Bend Oregon briefly before moving to Sisters Oregon
ruru and nan, OTOH, I would not be surprised they hadn't seen it
It was one of my kid's favorite movies.
I loved it in Bend, wouldn't mind living there.
<never saw the goonies
Ru will tell you he doesn't like Anne Hathaway movies
it has grown a lot now hokie .. it's a much bigger town
yeah, I was there in 2014 and it was "up-and-coming"
I liked Anne Hathaway in Devil Wears Prada.. she was good in that
haven't seen that
couldn't stand her in Princess Bride though
I could see why
Clue for st7 please?
rocky une
ix 5/20 please? thought I tried everything, but apparently not
a bush nan
ix + most of what monica and bill did
It is an xy Nan, not xi
it has red flowers, at least ours does
Oops, my mistake
Tx ru!!
ru, you are naughty!
:D
had to get something nan could know
lol - ty ru
*waiting for MKG to say Blow isn't in the grid*
I know what they did but having trouble
:D glad you got it nan.. it's a weird word
Oh there would be a water accident if she did
also not getting the rocky clue. yes, I know who played rocky.
Think clinically Carla
try an adverb hokie
no.. rocky like pebbles and rocks
I guess it would help to look at both s's
use the top one
shew, thanks
ok, back to the clinical sex act
clinical only because it involved a desk
I keep seeing pig latin
got one by monkey
wa6 was my monkey success today
hmm, what's the points on that one?
wa6.30 hokie
well, my monkeys went back to sleep but thanks
most of the word is negatively charged if that helps
thanks, that did help
sa 6 please?
yay ..
nan it ends with one of the to4.4 words, hard to clue without giving it away
ty aloy
aaron spelling's daughter, but I'm sure that won't help
don't feel badly about missing it when it isn't english :)
wondering if sy6 is english..
what's the points on that one?
Good Morning all ! Good to "see" you, Nan!
sa 6 18?
hey sophie
sy6.39 hokie
well, I'm guessing it has the x, but not going to bother. too many possibilities.
don't think so - probably latin
ty for looking anyway, I'm moving on too.. it must also have the x bc of the high tile count
oh, looks like I did actually make it to HOET
wtg !
thanks carla, got it
good morning all!!
hi Hokie!
got what? I didn't do anything. and if it's the SY6, please clue.
hello dolly!
hi marks
sy 6: most of a needle + high pt tile
wow, tyvm nan
yw aloy
guess I will look it up, but thanks for trying
monkeys went to work for a change
passing a banana of gratitude..
for the record, I was thinking a sewing needle
anyone else struggling, it's like a thing to inject medicines with
sorry - should have said hypodermic
no prob
still too early in the moring here
here too 😜
you took a good poke at a clue nan
now we're stuck in a pun thread
I had to take a shot at it hokie
the point is I am now done :)
just trying to infuse the chat with humor, I guess
are you needling us nan?
guess so -- now to start the day and hopefully get through the last of the paperwork :) hagd everyone
good luck, nan
good luck nan..
* after wordle of course - every bit of procrastination helps!
of course
whatever makes you feel better nan.. who cares
what 7 am I missing? have ST and DO
still 16 4's left. guess I will look for those
na7
na7.28 hokie
I always miss that, thanks. I guess since this is the only place I ever see it.
add a Spielberg alien to the previous word
oh, I saw it as soon as I knew it existed
but I am shocked you know the spielberg alien
done.. and off to get some chores done too.. Happy Babbling!
well done, have a good one
oh, the youngest just invited me to go play pickleball. 40 left for later.
I actually beat him this time
that handyman is pretty fixy
He takes things to his fixary to fix.
totally. and he's fixn to fix the things.
And when it's bigger stuff, he uses his fixyard.
alas, none of these are my missing F's
Heh. I'm still missing a bunch, so probably can't help.
I still need 6 and 6 N's. plus 4 A's from that column. definitely my biggest problem.
found 2 a's at least
I need 7 x F and have barely even looked at that N. Only just reached the final column for a first pass.
well, they are the worst ðŸ˜. even though the whole grid started bad for me with the D's.
ooh, but have just grayed the 2nd col
Hooray!
ha, just found an F with a typo
finished this morning - any F clues wanted Carla?
Good morning
have made it to 4 F's and 4 N's left in that column, plus 10 other words. am going to just try again later, but thanks, IG.
Mornin, afternoon here tho
howdy m9, after lunch time here!
Good afternoon then
West coast USA is just 10:18 am
Im on Central time here in Texas
That bottom A is keeping from 1/2 way on all tiles. And I have no 7 yet.
So the time marker in the chog is accurate for you!
Yes it is
think of a singing voice in a choir, m9
do you want the 7 stats?
Gah, how did I miss those. Thanks, now I'm over 1/2way on all.
pls
woot!
easy, to miss, they go backwards
No, that's ok. I read down and saw that it's na do and st.
bichon, pls on the 7 stats?
yes, carla
I'll just put it down to being a soprano, so it's all about me. LOL!!!
there you go, bichon, NA, DO, and ST
the ST 6/33 sounds rather Seuss-ish
haha. I am a soprano too, but love singing the other in christmas songs. for some reason that's the only time I can hear it.
Interesting. When we sing hymns at church I challenge myself to sing first verse soprano, next verse alto, and next tenor, and if there's four verses I try the bass up an octave. Sometimes raise the tenor too.
ty IG
yeah, I can usually do it if I see the music
hmm, must be my last S
Seuss.. hmmm...
yw, Bichon
got it, thaxnk
lol, not sure what happened there
have never read it or seen the movie, but I believe it's about the environment, m9
I'm assuming there's a cross in it.
the seuss character starts with L
interesting that the seuss character is about saving trees and the st6 is a tree.
I thought so too
not in the grid but just found out do4 -ism is a word. Going to have to use that one.
the belief in dumb birds?
ha. close. ludicrously outdated beliefs
yay, got all the 7s
