no, not really, it was before my time. i've seen clips of a few scenes, but that's about it

9:56 am

ah but the no is redundant in that sentence, hurshy

9:57 am

Tragic. That is classic television.

9:57 am

if you choose to see it that way, i suppose, nan. i find it reasonable.

9:57 am

I agree with Nan.

9:58 am

You would be disappointed in the re8. Not the no11

9:58 am

molly it's been how many years since the lucy shows were on tv? AT least 40 -- most people don't remember what desi sang back then. The only show I remember was when Lucy and Ethel were in the chocolate factory

9:59 am

i feel like in order to use re8, at least one person would have had to call. whereas no11 implies that nobody has.

9:59 am

But Nan, they are rerun on many classic TV stations.

10:00 am

My kids were born in the 80''s and know all the episodes of I Love Lucy.

10:00 am

we only get one classic TV station and I never watch it.

10:00 am

if you made a point of showing it to them, that makes sense

10:00 am

my dad watched star trek reruns, so, i got into that. :)

10:01 am

The current movie about Lucy and Desi would not be so popular if there were not many people familiar with The Ricardos

10:02 am

does anyone have the stats for the 4th row e please?

10:02 am

en6.18

10:02 am

See? Frequent flyer

10:03 am

I Love Lucy began in 1951. I watched reruns all the time as a kid in the 60's. My son was born in '85 and loved that show.

10:03 am

ty bea - looking

10:04 am

My kids and I would be hard to beat at I Love Lucy trivia.

10:08 am

I've never watched it, I feel like I missed out :)

10:09 am

Especially the episode when Lucy goes to Italy and stomps grapes.

10:10 am

That's a great episode.

10:12 am

It is classic. That is why its the one they chose to put in the movie. It's also one of the few that Kidman nailed.

10:12 am

i think julia roberts was watching that scene at one point in Pretty Woman

10:13 am

I haven't watched the movie because I don't like Kidman.

10:14 am

I don't like Kidman either, but I will recommend the movie. She did a passable job as Lucy. The actors who played Fred and Ethel were great.

10:14 am

wait, they got Nicole Kidman to play Lucille Ball? That's... an odd choice

10:14 am

I'll give it a shot.

10:14 am

Isn't it though. Like I said, she was better than I expected. The makeup helped.

10:15 am

I can see it in the facial features, definitely, but personality wise? Hmm

10:15 am

Not seeing the 11. I have po and pr for 8s. Which is it from? And there might be two po 8s.

10:16 am

I would never have expected much from Kidman as Virginia Woolf, yet it was one of her best movies.

10:17 am

See chat around 9:56

10:17 am

that's true

10:17 am

the 11 is no11 and is based on re8, i am not sure why you're talking about p8s, mkg

10:17 am

And remember, Lucille Ball's personality was much different than Lucy Ricardo's.

10:18 am

clue for that en 6 please?

10:18 am

Ends in not bro

10:19 am

ty molly

10:19 am

alas, no queso

10:19 am

must be some medical thing

10:19 am

quick, run to the store!

10:20 am

it's not, it's a political term from ancient greece of all things

10:20 am

well that is a very greek looking word, so, that's not that weird

10:20 am

and this is english?

10:20 am

along with its anagram, no6

10:21 am

it's in the english dictionary enable uses :)

10:22 am

the one no6 anagram isn't in there, right? the plural

10:22 am

I don't think any of the dictionaries Enable used are still in print 😊

10:22 am

ah, but the other one is!

10:22 am

if you mean sounds, then you are correct

10:22 am

which is also greek, haha

10:23 am

that's what i was saying

10:23 am

I really don't think so either, Molly

10:23 am

thanks for it, Hurshy, I always forget that one

10:24 am

it's a cool word

10:24 am

it's the plural of a babblet that I've finally seen enough to remember

10:25 am

oh wait, it isn't the plural they're just related

10:26 am

I was wondering how you thought that word was a plural

10:27 am

of nous? yeah.

10:28 am

Aren't you talking about the no6 that sounds like the en6?

10:28 am

yes, I thought the no6 was the plural of the babblet nous, which is a related term in greek

10:35 am

TH hurshy for no 11 clue!!!!!!!

10:36 am

Ty

10:36 am

Still searching but at lleast i now have the correct stat.

10:36 am

I get so lost in these chats

10:37 am

Molly i agree. I am confused by clues flying all about.

10:37 am

There was a clue for re and po 8. So i was vewry confused.

10:38 am

Is the 11 based on another word that is an 8?

10:39 am

I think it more than likely is based on some 8 letter word.

10:44 am

Well i am stumped. Went to lickety and word before it is aseven.

10:48 am

You are correct - the 8 letter word is another word for an answer

10:48 am

(and in this grid)

10:49 am

howdy folks. 68 left after first pass. no HOET. 😢

10:50 am

66 here. still missing two tiles.

10:50 am

same - 4th row N and E

10:51 am

3rd row lone N and fourth row E

10:52 am

the E & N are anagrams (I think)

10:52 am

3rd row lone o: or 4. Goes upward and plural

10:52 am

morning all...ZOET

10:53 am

moo!

10:53 am

hi Mool

10:53 am

hoke!

10:53 am

hi moo! hello all

10:53 am

happy whatever day it is

10:53 am

hey peri

10:53 am

help with right lone N please

10:53 am

N 4th row: ne 4, lights for stores are made of these tubes of color

10:53 am

hi mool

10:53 am

hi person in grid

10:53 am

peri

10:53 am

:)

10:53 am

hey HH, good to see you

10:53 am

I have that ne4, it's 3rd row N

10:54 am

There is a lone o?

10:54 am

Sorry not ne 4, but the 5 which is plural is from that N.

10:54 am

Sorry

10:54 am

The plural is not proper english.

10:54 am

hmm, thought I had that, thanks

10:55 am

what are the stats for the 3rd row lone N please

10:56 am

I believe that's no7/28

10:56 am

no6.18

10:57 am

ok I have an no6 18 but from another N. will look some more

10:57 am

or maybe it is no7 I am confused

10:57 am

yes - not the face one

10:59 am

P - if you have the en6 - it is an anagram for the no6

10:59 am

I don't see how the no7 could come from any other N

10:59 am

I have the E and I have an N but not from that N

10:59 am

It doesn't. It's the lone N. The 6/18 comes from another tile

11:00 am

I think it might be no7 but I do not see it

11:00 am

wrinkle free clothes

11:00 am

reis

11:01 am

ty carla. I think lyn was trying to confuse me and she succeeded :)

11:02 am

so I have one no6. the one en6 anagram I tried to make from it doesn't work.

11:02 am

ah! got the lone N!

11:02 am

possibly! bit hard to see which letters come from some times

11:02 am

now for the lone E.

11:03 am

The anagram no6 ends in not bro

11:04 am

ty molly :) nbt

11:05 am

hi moo

11:39 am

yeah, you need an "answer"

i need an L

11:40 am

yes, otherwise you'd be Tempe Ow

but it will come. i think i will go clean a room then return with fresh eyes

:D i am happy to be in AC today. that 5 day stretch was rough.

almost did not make it through monday. back on duty again tomorrow night.

11:41 am

indeed, when I moved into my house in Havertown many years ago, it had no AC, but did have ducting so allowed me to put a unit in

11:42 am

5 days without AC? How come Owl?

11:42 am

Hi again

we had none, could not add it to mew home that we built. no$. but later ran ducts through the closets.

11:42 am

I think she is working music fests again?

11:42 am

hey nan

because i was working outdoors at festival

11:43 am

29 to go 5-7-7-7-3

yep and and i have seen some really good acts new to me/us

11:43 am

Wow. When we moved from seattle we didnt need AC there and so bought a house in DC with no AC. I thought i would DIE the first summer!!!!!!!!!

11:43 am

We put in window units and a large wall unit but it was awful. Really awful.

11:43 am

still 47 here and need to get to work 6-9-16-11-5

well i no longer have trees- thanks mother nature! so hot

11:44 am

Where doyou live owl?

11:44 am

I grew up with no AC for a while. don't remember when my parents added it. also had no AC in high school and none in my college dorm.

we used window unit from the apartment so only had it in the bedroom. but with an E/W layout, hot at night

11:44 am

Trees are vital

11:45 am

I grew up with no AC. Connecticut then was cool. I recall needing a sweater in evenings.

time to clean something. later

carla are you near harpers ferry? great little band from there

11:46 am

yeah, I grew up without AC too...Australian summers were fun :)

11:46 am

no, have never been anywhere near there. what's the band?

we would go to woolworth's for a hot fudge sundae to sit in ac when growing up. not many homes had ac

joan and the jetts

11:46 am

Where do you live owl?

but saw boyz 2 men and gina chavez. my faves also so far

11:47 am

When i was a kid woolworths had no AC. Didnt need it.

11:47 am

we had an unfinished basement that we had a little "room" set up with a couch and tv. it was a lot cooler.

11:47 am

Nor did the two largest department stores.

11:47 am

I love boyz 2 men. they are from philly, right?

11:47 am

Carla where do you live?

11:47 am

I am older than all of you.

i think so and they can still sing

11:48 am

There was no such thing as AC when i was a kid.

we were in a city but there were trees and parks nearby

11:48 am

grew up in VA on TN border, have lived in NC since college

11:48 am

I recall when one of the department stores that was 2 stories put in an elevator!!!!!!!wow. It was amazing. Two doors of course. And an elevator operator.

i was supposed to go to ziggy marley but lost the tickets

11:49 am

Carla, so you much be younger than i am.

okay work time for real. bye

11:49 am

Or VA was as backwards as Conn was.

11:49 am

Only NY had elevators and AC.

11:50 am

just under 50, mkg

11:51 am

My kids are just under 50! Ouch.

11:51 am

I could happily go back to being CArla's age again

11:51 am

I am 74, soon 75. So it is an entire generation older that I am

11:51 am

Nan how old are you?

11:52 am

yeah, my mom is 78

11:52 am

a year older than carla's mom :)

11:53 am

So you are my generation then. We are all 1940s kids.

11:53 am

yes

11:53 am

my dad was born in 1940, same age as mr. nan

11:53 am

Ah……such memories. I grew up in a small town. It was nice.

11:54 am

Carla you are a baby

11:54 am

fo 6 please?

11:54 am

pt of a babblet

11:55 am

Bye all. See you tomorrow

11:55 am

hmm, I think I have that one

11:55 am

bye, mkg

11:55 am

sorry - have that one -- looking for the fo 6/27 -- looks like it might be part of a 6-7 combo

11:55 am

Nan, sounds like past tense of silver money

11:55 am

Oh that sounds like something toxic

11:56 am

that one rhymes with what you can use to kill someone by hiding in food

11:56 am

iam 81 and for the first time , i am having fruit loops for breakfast

11:56 am

Good for you SMom!

11:56 am

What's for lunch? Cotton candy?

11:57 am

ty carla - new one for me

11:57 am

Carla always gets the thanks, even when she clues second

11:58 am

godis gonna get us for giving this crap to our babies !!! i thnk i feel it in my knees right now.

11:59 am

I love a good froot loop

12:00 pm

some girls actually marry them.

12:00 pm

I was never much into Fruit Loops, but I loved Capn Crunch as a kid. Equally crappy for you.

12:00 pm

sorry molly -- saw the silver clue but not the other

12:01 pm

yup

12:03 pm

I always liked Froot Loops and Fruity Pebbles.

12:04 pm

I liked Farina

12:11 pm

Cream of Wheat? Ew, not me. Especially not as a kid.

12:12 pm

loved it as a kid - can't stand it now

12:12 pm

oatmeal porridge with maple syrup on top :)

12:15 pm

We eat Wheatina

12:17 pm

pe 7/32, not the marbles please?

12:23 pm

whatever it is, it's not in the word list

12:27 pm

Loved Sugar Pops....."Sugar Pops are Tops!"

12:28 pm

I have 3 but not sure what the marbles are. I also still need 12 P's

12:28 pm

sorry, I have 2, not 3

12:29 pm

comes just before our babbler in the list

12:30 pm

does not begin with stare at

12:35 pm

I love how all the cereals with "sugar" in their names now have sugar OUT of the name. Sugar Pops are just Pops.

12:37 pm

ok, I don't have that one

12:38 pm

Ends in charged particle

12:39 pm

still stuck on no-11 ??

12:40 pm

thanks, molly

12:40 pm

SMom, you get a ________ card in an invitation to fill out and send back to let them know how many will attend. Add a negative prefix

12:41 pm

ns

12:43 pm

thank you molkly

12:43 pm

molly even

12:43 pm

have the pe 7 that ends with the charged particle - there is another one in the middle

12:44 pm

oh - I"m thinking of a word from yesterdays grid

12:44 pm

*Blank stare*

12:45 pm

guess molly's clue was not for the pe 7

12:45 pm

My son is getting married next month. Instead of the cards Molly referred to - they have a dedicated email address set up for the RSVPs.

12:46 pm

There are three pe7. The one that starts with stare, the one that ends with charged particle and the very last pe word. Nothing "in the middle"

12:46 pm

molly clued the PE7 and the NO11

12:46 pm

that seems to be the modern way, soodle -- don't know what they do for invitees that have no computers.

12:49 pm

I asked that very question, Nan. Those with no computers ask a family member/friend to reply on their behalf (I was told).

12:49 pm

sp 8 and that pe 7 are my last 2 -- any clues please?

12:49 pm

The very last pe7 ends in light switch positions

12:49 pm

That is all three pe7 clued

12:50 pm

maybe french father? + charged particles

12:50 pm

particle singular

12:51 pm

I do not have any sp yet

12:51 pm

I clued the one that ends in charged particle and Nan said she had it

12:51 pm

Evita with a double cons in her surname, plural?

12:51 pm

I give up

12:52 pm

she also said she had the scottish one, and soodle just clued the 3rd, so all 3 have been clued 2x now.

12:53 pm

ty that was it -- thought the charged particle clue was for a different word

12:53 pm

ok, good. was going to recommend you reread the chat.

12:54 pm

I said I had the marbles

12:54 pm

sp 8 please?

12:55 pm

not sponsor, for a couple of reasons. but I keep seeing that.

12:56 pm

You are on the right track Carla

12:57 pm

me too, but sponsors is not there

12:57 pm

wondered about sponsee but no

12:59 pm

got it, now how to clue

1:00 pm

Don't mention a charged particle, whatever you do

well, technically it does end that way

1:00 pm

got it - ty molly

1:00 pm

Technically so did the other word I clued but that didn't make it well received.

alrighty, I gotta fold my laundry. still 41 left. TTFN

1:02 pm

4:29 pm

coincidentally?

well, you know when you make a word ending in a y plural

4:29 pm

ah

the real way, not the crap people on the internet who say things like babys

4:30 pm

yeah, those people should be extradited

4:31 pm

found my last n

4:31 pm

1-4-6-6-2 I see where this is going

4:32 pm

ooh, found two p's

Got genius the other day (think Sunday) without getting the pangram tho...first time

i am playing yesterday's and cannot see a pangram

I didn't get the pangram yesterday

4:36 pm

was fortunate to have yesterday's pop out at me

4:36 pm

no, I did get yesterday's. must've been 2 days ago.

i am at amazing with 137 points

4:37 pm

yeah, I thought it was Sunday I didn't get it, but maybe monday

4:37 pm

maybe you're not playing yesterday's then TO

4:37 pm

there wasn't that many points

4:37 pm

I don't think

the M_E_N_D_Z_O with an I

4:37 pm

that's today's

4:38 pm

I know it says yesterday on it...but seems like they're doing today's

yep, today. and there are 2 pangrams

august 10- i thought it was supposed to be yesterday's

4:38 pm

at least in my experience since it was brought to our attention

4:38 pm

yeah, seems it's the same one each day

i thought i noticed it was same day as well, but i don't know why they would do that

4:38 pm

I'm on 177 points today so far

did you get any pangrams?

I'm at 132

4:39 pm

yeah

and I have both pangrams

4:39 pm

something I do to their dictionary frequently :)

mindzone is not a word...

4:40 pm

oh, there's two you say?

i have 137 with no pangrams

yes

ah, something to puzzle over if i ever finish today's grid

4:41 pm

I'm only at 100 but have both pangrams

have not yet achieved queen bee in free bee. i think only members can get it in nyt bee

4:42 pm

do you have bingo then too hoke?

is nyt queen bee getting every word?

what's bingo?

4:42 pm

yes queen bee is getting every word

4:42 pm

at least one word from every tile

oh sorry, getting my games mixed up

4:43 pm

oh yes, I have both pangrams....duh

4:43 pm

was thikning it was something more complicated

in free bee it's getting a certain percentage of words.

you are killin gme

4:44 pm

bingo is one for ever tile

4:44 pm

queen bee is all the words

4:44 pm

have 36 words so far

I now have 32 words, 162 pts. still not close to a bingo.

i only have 33

all my words start with only 4 letters

4:45 pm

36 words, 183 points

4:45 pm

not that far off hoke...you could easily get 21 points in the four word different

found one of my missing letters

i tried once to get help with pangram but no site does the trick

4:47 pm

could always ask here TO :)

sometimes they just jump right out at you...

4:48 pm

yeah, I'd say about two thirds, I get a pangram as my first word...but I look for it first too

they have to jump out at me or I won't see it. but I don't use any aids for the bee.

once i was curious to try.

4:50 pm

I mostly just like to complain about their dictionary

TO, you can look here to get a good idea of what it starts with https://tinyurl.com/4hmzez3d

well, it is a real mind exercise, that's the point, no? like here, if everything is clued there's little point.

exactly

to me, at least, i want to exercise my mind

4:52 pm

I agree TO...and I'm okay with not finishing

but here i want to finish so will get a couple of clues when needed.

or a to z

4:53 pm

still 17 left here

I have twice as many

4:54 pm

but 7 are 7+ letters

just listed with 44 to go

but I've been working on the bee and the -ordles while chatting

4:59 pm

yes, I've been discussing hot sauces with my wife

5:00 pm

ornesis - the transition to being more irritable as you get older

down to 2 guesses on quordle with only 6 letters left and not seeing it 🤣

5:00 pm

sounds challenging

luckily I can't even come up with a guess to waste

whew, finally saw it

5:02 pm

got it on the final go :)

5:02 pm

the left bottom one I almost screwed up

mine was bottom right

5:03 pm

yeah, that was the toughest word, but had all the letters by the 5th turn

I had one green and 3 yellows 🤣

5:05 pm

I got the second letter green on the sixth turn, but had every letter previously yellow

wish I could see the words here

5:06 pm

sorry seventh

5:07 pm

bye TO

found 2 c's

5:07 pm

hello! 57 to go here

5:07 pm

hey HH, welcome back

harry!

5:08 pm

cool carla :)

5:08 pm

hi mool

5:08 pm

hi carka

5:08 pm

carla

LOL, my cousin used to call me that

5:08 pm

cheeky cousin

5:09 pm

I think my cousins just used to cal me my regular name, though I did get a lot of variations of my names from my friends and family

is your name a nickname?

5:10 pm

moolingwa? ah no...that's just a made up nothing

5:10 pm

but if you mean my name being a nickname for others, yes

no, doofus, I remember what your real name is

5:10 pm

heh

5:11 pm

50!

5:11 pm

well no, I'm actually just Toby, but my Nan used to call me Tobias

5:12 pm

Tubs, Tobemoray, Toby-one-kenobi...2by4....you get the drift

5:12 pm

Tobes too

yep

yep

5:12 pm

my dad still calls me Tubs

weird

my double post, not your dad calling you tubs

5:13 pm

My mum calls me Tobes

5:13 pm

that last syllable can be very challenging

my family has never had a problem with 2 syllables 😜

5:14 pm

regional challenges ;)

5:14 pm

NZ/OZ are fond of dropping the last syllable, or adding one if you don't have it

actually both my brothers have nicknames and when I was a kid that used to bother me that I didn't.

5:14 pm

so you'd probably come out like "carls"

my mom has a similar name and her siblings used to just call her Ca

5:16 pm

40!

5:16 pm

HH rocketing up the charts

5:18 pm

5:42 pm

I have one o left now, the lower of the two

currently looking for the upper

5:42 pm

yeah, pretty sure I know which two those are

6:16 pm

It's weird how the definition of "weird words" shifts based on what we're used to seeing in the grid.

No 11/96 word. not a word still fun

golf wise, the NO 7/28 is a fariway wood

fair

how did pr6 escape me all day?

8:12 pm

8:15 pm

i think it's en 6/18 and the no7 is permanent press material

8:17 pm

ty welki

8:19 pm

that NO7 seems like it should be hyphenated to me...

8:19 pm

ours is not to wonder why ...... :D

8:20 pm

lol welki

finally got the P to 6 left. 20 total, but still 4 4's. don't think I'm going to find them now. to the list!

8:36 pm

Deef

10:18 pm

well, the clock is ticking and I have no idea what the EN6,18 is.
