es 7 if not called
really? es?
I'm confused by that since the my E next to the s is grayed out and not by a 7. I don't think any other E is next to an S, so... hmmmm.
gn8!

qu7
oops -- sorry - no es - it was a phantom
too late for me to be doing this
ah. It was esquire, wasn't it? I've seen it about 1000 times and typed it more than once
yes
Yeah. It's obviously there
yeah, this is a grid where the qu being one square is mostly annoying.
if, allowed for line and variants.

I'm going to try and sleep now.

Great grid! Gerunds and comparatives
Yes, I am enjoying it and found five 7s by myself.
Hi, Scrabbler
I hopped right out of bed after my first alarm. Sometimes it takes me 30 minutes to get vertical.
Had major storm here last night - lost power for hours
but got first rain this Summer !
We had a wild thunderstorm yesterday afternoon but did not lose power.
109 left and still finding fun words - approaching best grid of the year
I passed halfway.
"Have an IS---, heres a TI----" movie line
Has anyone stats for the lone i (eye) in the fourth row, second column, please
Hm
No, matty.
dont have it yet
Hmmmm ;)
I think it's in6/24
Double hmmm
found it - IN plus hurry word
Aaaah - so obvious when it's pointed out!
Thanks
TY, IG
issue
Free clue!
Get a TI----
I need to get ready for work. Enjoy the day.
morning freinds

friends
my fingers are conspiring against me
morning hurshy
morning Katie
woohoo, found the 9!
Oh, the thrill of it all.
name that proper noun! famed scientist Alan for whom the famed AI test is named
Turing
ding ding ding!!!
Ws Whacked!
my patrilinieal great grandmother’s name is in the grid today. a gu6.27.
which was also the nickname of Bertie Wooster's friend Augustus Fink-Nottle!
indeed!
Is patrilineal just a five-dollar word for paternal, or does it mean something else?
in the paternal line.
so as i used, that tells you father’s father’s mother.
But paternal great grandmother means the same thing, right?
not necessarily, that’s ambiguous as to which.
Pardon? Ambiguous as to which what? Paternal means on your father's side.
but doesn’t clarify wethetr father’s or mother’s mother.
stats for the lone e in the first column please?
oooo nm
i don’t have it yet, sorry.
en4.6
oh, ty.
BBL
stats for the lone i in the 2nd column?
in6/24
thx rasta! NBT now
my favorite geologic word!
Is it the gn6? It certainly is a nice one. ;)
yes! :)
I had just found it myself.
gotta go pack up the house - 11 AM checkout!
80 to go here. have a gn6 day!
You too! =D
there's a gn 8 too
we seem to be off to a rocky start in the chat
gn8?? wow
oh yes, i have that lol
you go off and play other word games and you forget what you've found
Well Ru, at least we are not all stoned (I think)
I'm so confused. Who has a Thursday checkout on a vacation rental? Don't they go from Saturday to Saturday in the summer?
maybe they are being more flexible if fewer people are coming this summer?
Fewer people? Everyone I know is going on two or three vacations this summer to make up for the COVID years.
oh, i had heard people were driving less due to the high gas prices
Some people are. It doesn't affect the high dollar income people. They just pay the higher prices.
i'm only taking two vacations this year.. one is a short weekend thing
I am taking my usual no vacation. 😥
i thought every day here in babble was a vacation for you Molly :D
anyone have the other top E besides the sea birds?
i was just looking for that
eu6
just found it
Qs Quelled!
thanks ruru
A beatnik who travels across the pond
i don't know much about beatniks
jack kerouac was the most famous one right? i know his name and that's about it.
I lived in those times
Well, my clue seems less clever if I have to explain it's meaning
i'm reading up on the beat generation now
i feel like there is a lot with which current young people could also identify
Beatnik and hippy are two different things but they are often used interchangably
not even just young people... anyone who did the great resignation
and all the exploited poor
People who did the great resignation apparently can pay their bills without a job. I, alas, cannot.
or they are trying to be self-employed and may or may not be succeeding at it
I don't feel like the younger generation who is taking on the great resignation is really progress
nobody said it was :)
I read that many of the people who participated in the great resignation are now back to work. Seems those damn creditors want their money.
what I meant is I had to work in a lot of shitty jobs in my life hursh, until I found my profession
I think it is kind of sad that it took a pandemic for people to realize that their long commutes and less than optimal jobs were decreasing the quality of their lives.
anyone have hi7? it's not hipster so i'm a bit mystified
oh nvm pulled a peri
furry hurshy
Another result of the pandemic is that the daycare industry has been decimated.
I'm finding some long lost babblets in this grid
other than that clue i just asked i'm pretty pleased with myself. most of what i used the list for was weird.
Hi all. Any clues for the 8s welcome. I also need the 9. Ty
Oh just found them. Ty anyway. Tr 8 and 9.
good morning - still waiting for the garage doors to arrive -- hope they are still coming today
I’m hi7, like my dad was, if a long way from lupine level.

I was quite pleased with myself for seeing the gn 6/8. Good thing my son in law studied some geology
and on.. ;o)
ty m9, got it
going to lurking mode for a bit... bye for now...
And thanks for the earworm Molly!
That U next to the Qu is very misleading :)
there used to be a tu6.24 for not far from here. Today it’s a McMansion subdivision. I miss the guy sitting on the back of his truck with greens and tu6. So fresh and tasty.
it is, m9! always so when they are next to one another.
I will lurk with Pen. I like to find words on my own.
I love tu6 because of my Dad. It was his bday yesterday, and I miss him. I also eat the core of a cabbage because of him..and it tastes just like tu6 :)
<3

ty gwen

skipped the su 7, too...
same ending as the person who drills your teeth
qu 7/40 ends in the part of the body most people wear a watch minus the 1st letter
