and good morning here and there (i think)

5:50 am

Good morning.

Hi, Scrabbler

5:59 am

What are your plans for today?

breakfast

6:00 am

Then?

no plans

6:01 am

perfect

but then I gotta figure out lunch

6:04 am

I think you can do it.

theres a lot of outdoor yard work ive been doing - im not just idling; not much

6:07 am

The timing of raking leaves is tough--too early and more fall, too late and it snows. First snow is usually early November.

I have an invasive viney plant every summer - butterflys and humming birds love it; but it takes over everything. dieing off now so gotta remove it

6:13 am

I haven't seen my hummingbirds in > 1 wk. This is when they fly south.

i have humming birds and a bald eagle

6:15 am

Are you on a lake?

yes

6:17 am

Nice.

Lake Arlingtons not a big lake, but big enough for an eagle!

6:20 am

It looks pretty big on a map.

google maps - Southeast area of the lake

6:23 am

I see you there. (Haha)

waving

6:24 am

I saw that and waved back.

theres a dead tree overhanging the lake (killed by a beaver btw) that the eagle loves to hang out on

6:26 am

A nice snag.

has anyone ever uttered that comment before? I think not

6:30 am

Oops.

6:31 am

And I must leave for work in 15 min. Bye. 55 left.

7:48 am

7:48 am

silly me

7:48 am

the army decided to en6 in the shelter of that hill

7:49 am

what's the 8?

7:49 am

ty carla, hurshy

do not have that

PA8/60 - uses a high value tile, similar to the 7 using the same tile

it's not pokemon in space. LOL

7:52 am

hmmmmmmm

7:53 am

what is HOET?

I haven't found it either

or the 7

HOET = half on every tile

7:53 am

ah gotcha

oh, I do have the 7.

7:53 am

HOET = Hokie's Odd Existential Target

7:53 am

don't think I've seen that, thanks ruru

first col gray!

8:10 am

Just saw this cute story on the news http://surl.li/dfwyg

LOL, definitely would not happen in this country

8:15 am

Sweet story.

well, stuck on 15 left. 2-5-5-3 MM P N F PPP P AA TTT S

8:17 am

stuck on the last q. I have q 5/16 x2

it is a 3rd

ends in donkey probably

8:17 am

of course

which is apparently an alt sp for a russian beer

but hey, no ramen

8:18 am

sukee - all the F are fe words

8:19 am

* hokie, oops

8:19 am

I have all the Fs

thanks, kiani

8:20 am

Got it, ty

8:28 am

Is it confirmed that Kate Middleton is pregnant yet?

8:28 am

Geez, arent 3 enough?

8:29 am

RIP Loretta Lynn

8:29 am

Yes, I'm not into country but I liked her music.

8:31 am

Kate Middleton has acute pregancy morning sickness. Again

8:31 am

did you figure out the fe hokie? I totally forgot about the lickety list until just now, so I probably wasn't that helpful... (haven't played this in a long time)

went away for a while and came back and there it was

and it was helpful so I didn't waste time looking at FO. I probably won't look at lickety list until tonight.

top row gray!

1-3-5-3 - lot of big words left

8:42 am

hm that q gets used a lot more than I thought at first

8:59 am

glad that the sp4 wasn't a collective hallucination yesterday

well, I found one P6 after my latest break. thinking these last 11 are really weird.

9:15 am

there is an interesting chronological history of the word spam here at the internet socierty.org : the history of spam

9:16 am

internetsociety.org

9:17 am

obviously self-taught typing not up to par

9:18 am

and good morning everyone!

9:19 am

Hi saanich. That was interesting.

9:23 am

name that impressionist painter in the grid

monet

9:26 am

I have never seen a group of grown people so excited about canned congealed pork product.

or junk email, since the pork is a proper noun

9:28 am

what's not to love about congealed pork products?

9:28 am

and ding sing sing hokie :)

9:29 am

we almost have Manet too

she's a full-on monet

like a painting, see. from far it's okay but up close is a big ole mess.

9:30 am

the article mentioned was about the use of spam in computer use, didn't mention Spam which is still a proper noun. Agreed Molly re your comment though. Only in Babble.

9:32 am

I'll be just as excited if and when babble finally recognizes ramen and afro, to be honest

9:32 am

but ramen is one of my favorite foods so I guess I take it personally :)

9:32 am

I am perplexed by the omission of ramen.

9:33 am

and many others too. It's not a dictionary and not a very inclusive word list either.

like I said earlier, esp with the inclusion of things like the qu5, which is an alt sp of russian beer

9:34 am

totally. But I think sp4 is also a special case because it never said it wasn't a word, just that it wasn't in the grid even when it was

like, were these guys just sitting around going, well, everyone who ever went to college knows what ramen is, but we should leave it out.

9:34 am

so there were some coding shenanigans afoot

9:34 am

and to not have a plural is silly

yes, legend has it there was an attempt years ago to add it since it wasn't on enable. dr. god must've fixed that before he added that last batch of puzzles not too long ago.

9:40 am

It used to say spam was not found in the dictionary. Then someone convinced Dr. God to add it and after that, it said it wasn't in the grid when it was.

9:41 am

And it was not the someone who took credit for it this morning.

9:43 am

if you allow ramen.. then you have to allow udon and umami and etc..

9:44 am

Those should be allowed as well.

9:45 am

that's just because you go out to Japanese restaurants Ori

9:45 am

naneo yate maska?

9:45 am

I love Japanese food :D

9:45 am

Well, as someone mentioned yesterday, now that he's making exceptions, I expect he will be inundated with requests to add and delete.

9:48 am

If it is a real word, disagreeable or not, if it is called a dictionary, the word should be included. If it is an arbitrary word list, anything goes. And we have a word list, not a dictionary.

9:49 am

And dictionaries cost a fortune to update.

9:51 am

Yes, but someone argues that Enable only includes words that are in collegiate dictionaries. I have no idea if that is true or not.

9:53 am

I don't think so. Many are too archaic or rare they are rarely seen in that level of reference. I check those out a lot. (word nerd here)

9:54 am

Well the person who says that is one of those know it all types, so I refrain from engaging.

9:55 am

But I agree with you Saan.

9:55 am

I mean, udon and umami are very common words these days

9:55 am

Thanks, good discussion. Got to go, Dr's appt bye for now

9:56 am

I think an update to the dictionary would be great, however it would require all of us "relearning" what is accepted and what isn't. I think complaining about it is probably just how it's going to be :)

9:58 am

I don't know how you people who play multiple word games remember what is accepted where.

10:02 am

It is, Molly. The Spelling Bee word list is very limited.

10:06 am

I noticed that. I have played Spelling Bee a few times.

10:09 am

eh, I just end up trying words anyway

10:10 am

I've got a general idea but it's not perfect, I don't have that much extra storage space in my noggin

10:11 am

:)

10:17 am

good morning :)

10:24 am

just read the chat - lol - I have no idea what udon and unami are. If they are an ethnic food, I would think that they are common only to those who eat it.

10:25 am

I just know that ramen is some kind of noodle -- have never eaten it or seen it after it is cooked unless it is those chinese noodles that look like worms.

10:35 am

you're right, Nan

10:35 am

udon is noodles too

10:35 am

Ramen noodles are super cheap and the staple of many college kids on a budget. :)

10:36 am

cheaper than spaghetti?

10:37 am

are they made from rice flour rather than wheat?

10:39 am

dunno..... back in the day, they were 4 or 5 pkg for 1$

10:39 am

The internet says they are made from wheat flour. Probably around the same price per serving as spaghetti.

10:41 am
