hello everyone :)
hi, nan
I'm sad that I didn't have time today to come back and finish that monster grid. This one seems more likely....
pr7
there were a alot of questionable words
and a lot of gobbeltygook
I'm not surprised to hear that
still, I love seeing those words
pu7
ntpn - gunfight at the OK Corral man
"Wyatt" is NOT in the grid :-)

er7
pr7
I dare say, fine rasta, is that a second pr7?
oh, I think not, sorry freep - didn't scroll down
only asking so I can look. no worries.
it's a word well worth calling, I feel.
ar7
FWs
whoa. nice, dizgrannie!

oddly difficult grid for me
Agree, IG!
Hi, Champ

The TU 6 took forever - thx, Lickety
BBL...good luck!
good morning all. help with the Z and the lone A please
found the Z
Clue for er7 please?
it means learned or scholarly Une
did you get it Une?
tough grid! just got halfway.
bbl!
I am halfway too
And I'm just getting started :)
just reached halfway
phantom: putrid
Tx!!
almost gratitude
Almost Gratitude sounds like a country western song
or a country band
well, I have achieved HOET. 39 left for later.
Saying she "achieved" HOET sounds like a sexual thing.
stats for the e in the 4th column? i don't have any
er7/36 and er5/14
thx molly!
morning all
Buon giorno, mael!
hi scrab! come stai?
Bene. Mi sto preparando per l'escursione
E tu come stai?
molto meglio, my bronchitis is finally resolving!
COVID? Or other virus?
she's been fencing a lot scrabs.. you know.. lunging around
Ouch.
Hope she doesn't get her hack up against a wall
not covid, some random virus
No one will know where she's coming phlegm
who knew we could cough up so many puns about bronchitis
about 15 times worse than when I actually had covid, alas. I had gotten used to the lack of regular bugs going around :)
Phew, I am glad you didn't have COVID.
bronchitis is awful i had it a few years back
THAT'
First it was bronchitis now it's a random virus
bronchitis caused by a random virus, molly. That's how that happens :)
Parainfluenza or Human Metapneumovirus are leading contenders.
that's why I keep wearing my mask--I hate bouts of bronchitis
Yes, I have had winters with 3-5 months of coughing. Pertussis is the 100-day cough.
Colds and flu can cause bronchitis as well
i caught mine being on a plane with a jerk who was sick behind me coughing the whole f-ing flight
8 year old brought it home from camp, then 6 year old and I got it too over the span of three weeks or so. I had pertussis as a toddler and ever since then my stupid lungs are very susceptible to bronchitis
So can bacteria, smoking and pollution
Ti7?
having a title like Prince Andrew
well yeah, Molly, but I got it from a random virus
that's a clue for ti7.. and appropriate too
I've had two serious rounds with pneumonia, so lungs are weakened. then broken ribs made it worse
Since it gives you three out of seven letters 😋
Ouch for broken ribs.
It has become clear that some people are never going to stop wearing masks. Even alone in their cars.
I had NO IDEA of how bad broken ribs could be
and good for them if that's what they feel is best
some people look better with masks molly :d
yeah donna, it's absolutely terrible!
I agree Ru
Tx
Saw a guy at the park riding a bike wearing one the other day. It's super humid and gross out there...no clue how he can breathe like that.
i see bikers here in 100 degree weather wearing masks
speaking of... going to be 112 here this weekend
I just assume that the people I see wearing them in improbable situations either are immunocompromised or have loved ones that are immunocompromised
it as 51 here this morning and it was BLISS
that could be mael.. i hadn't considered that.. thanks for that
or they themselves are contagious and not wanting to spew germs on passersby
Yes, some people are considerate like that.
I thought you had to isolate if you were contagious
it was 58 here in central TN--will be suffocating by noon
technically only for 5 days, then you can leave the house if masked at all times
at least, that's how it was when I caught it in January
The rules keep changing. Which makes me very suspicious.
I've been lucky to avoid it so far.
hi folks
hey welki
me too and am afraid of it--type 1 diabetics have reason to fear
The CDC started the "Let it rip" strategy in 2021 when the mask mandate ended soon before Delta hit. We are disposable.
Welki is in the building.
hey welki
I'm looking forward to the new booster
First time I have ever heard someone say they are looking forward to a shot
I hope there aren't any side effects to the new booster.. it's kind of unknown yet isn't it?
I wish Novavax were approved here in the US. Much more effective.
I look forward to my flu shot every year too, not because I enjoy shots but because I know it's important to get one
i never look forward to a needle
I had whooping cough as a kid because the vaccine wasn't available yet in Italy and that's made me a HUGE fan of vaccinations, to be honest.
looking forward to booster and the trivalent influenza vaccine
but it helps that I have zero fear of needles, of course
I can't say I look forward to needles either. And I can't get all jazzed about a vaccine.
My mother is 91 and the only vaccine she had growing up was Smallpox. She was infected with all the childhood illnesses for which we have vaccines now.
ouch
I'm happy to have my covid vaccines believe me
looking at the list of childhood vaccinations my kids get makes me so happy
Mine is 88 and had TB. She only has one lung, and is going strong.
I also got everything as a kid ... measles etc
been type 1 since I was 10--two sisters and a nephew with type one--no one is afraid of shots in my family; I take 4 shots a day
I had mumps, chicken pox, and whooping cough. That was plenty!
Good for her, ChampFit.
ugh donna I couldn't do it
As for Novavax, I have to assume the FDA has good reasons for not approving it.
Probably Pfizer and Moderna fighting against it.
my dad had TB too, poor guy ended up with a hole in his lung that scarred to his pleura.
(nods head and agrees with Scrabs)
True.
ruru--you could. Our lives depend on injections--and the needles are just a little over skin-deep
I thought it was available in the US, no?
oh, I see that it's still only allowed as a primary vax and not as a booster
"The rules keep changing." Molly, that's the way the medical researchers work--they keep trying to improve on what we know about any infection or virus
insulin has changed and improved so much since I was a child
They don't really put out enough information about these vaccines. They say "cases of myocarditis and pericarditis have been reported from receiving the Novavax vaccine. But they don't say how many cases.
i hope the price comes down for insulin
I was talking about the isolation rules. Seems to me, those should have remained constant.
I took one injection for so mny years, but now with multiple injections, my control of the disease is so much more dynamic
not really; they learned a lot about HOW covid is spread
ok.. i'm off to start cleaning the house.
Donna, have you ever used an insulin pump? My little patients with T1DM all have pumps and glucose monitors. Connected to cell phones.
Have a great holiday weekend everyone?
off to can more tomaotes
thanks ru, enjoy the house cleaning!
I gotta do my tomatoes this afternoon too
bye donna :)
That Ru, he really knows how to party down on a holiday weekend.
my sister uses a pump--insurance coverage is spotty at best--cost is high
Oh, I thought an insulin pump was preferred.
it is
insulin pumps cost between $4,500 and $6,500 for individuals without insurance and maintenance is about 1500 a year
I passed halfway. Time for a hike. Enjoy the day.
Ouch, donna.
happy hiking!
Have a wonderfilled W/E all
FW! have a great day everyone :)
phantom: plaid
yeah this grid is definitely on the tough end of the spectrum
Hi all, diving in
Hair
hello all
fans of klingon cuisine will be dismayed that "gagh" doesn't count on the spelling bee
Why isn't raita allowed? Every Indian restaurant has cucumber raita on the menu.

Oops, playing on phone, not my usual

I hear it's a hot box out there on the Left Coast
Yes, between 103 and 111 for the next 8 days. Brutal.
Makes you wonder how people did it before central air conditioning
No way I could do it.
well they didn't really have much choice
unfortunately, misery doesn't usually kill us on its own
the heat can, but we hit the misery from the heat long before the death from it

I went to the list at 24 (yesterday I made it to 23!) and still have 9 I couldn't find, incl. the pr7.

Carla swoops in
I really hate to ask for a 5, but I don't understand how I can't get first pa5/14

i have one that ends in a vowel...
Wait you asked for a clue and then cluedit?
yes, I peri'd it and then clued it because pen said she didn't have.
but if you're dying to clue something, how about ra6/24?
and i found it and posted a clue before her second post resolved on my screen...

I will look up
oh, we've had that before - the rasping tongue on a snail. ewww
ewww....

now looking up my H6. these are ridic.

Not dying to clue, my ego isn't that big
