well, I challenge you both to use it in conversation tomorrow
I will craft an epic poem using it. Promise.
can't wait
Epic poetry? There once was a player named Ruby Who would give an occasional clue-bie She liked to have fun She was no nun Think of her when you light up a doobie
I miss our Ruby
I do as well, Molly.
She was one of a kind
So do I. We both went to Queens College
She sent me a picture of herself as a very young woman wearing a checkered shirt and Daisy Dukes reclining in a hay loft. 😀
That is so Ruby
She was probably saying "Come get me Cowboy"
great memories of Ruby and a poem to boot. Miss you Ruby. What an image ori!
and a Good Morning to all!
Good morning, saanich!

... lickety says no
cool
still don't have the D. rainiqui and freep got it no problem but said it's a word they've never used.
so if anyone knows the stat, please share
... di 6/27 .. turning down the lights
um, okay. thanks.
like a compound hokie
it's weird
phantom: hominid
true
scuse me
well, had to look it up or I would lose count of how many times I was typing dimmin. never seen that before.
oh i thought my compound clue would help
you would think
but I couldn't see any 3 letter word to go with it
got the 8!! woohoo!!!
phantom: origin
I have 1-4-7 left. definitely going to have to list for those 6s.
currently stuck on guess 4 of wordle, so I may as well finish here.
done with 7s!
phantom: crimson
It's a new lyric for Donna Summer. ♪♫di6 the lights sweet darlin' 'cause tonight it's all the way♫♪
calling bs on the one co6
it says it's a turtle
the other co6.
I've heard of the turtle and TITT but apparently hadn't
oh, i had taken from your statement that there WAS only one
clue the bs one then?
sorry
misspelling of blending things together
ty
yeah that is weird
phantom hominy
As Annihilated!
yeah, I tried homini just in case. there are a lot of phantoms today.
Ns Nailed!
4th row grey!
just looked up my last H, just clue blurting for y'all...alt sp of a food
never seen it before
but not homini lol
nope
and the last i in the middle means the same as the stupid c
oh thanks, i tried that as an in5 earlier but not that
what kind of a food is it? like is it a natural thing like a fruit, or a complex recipe, or...?
appetizer with crackers
or pita bread pieces
oh wow, never would have thought to spell it that way! ty
that's why I dropped it here. who would?
4-3-3
ty
phantom: mosaic
oh, british spelling strikes again on me
finally figured out the d6
you mean the ri6, hokie? :)
down to one T6
yep
all i've got is to6/18 and tu6/30
yeah, it's another tu6
but it's not turret :(
6/27, so should be easy
groot must be a proper noun
Looking for ri6, please?
my name is groot
british sp of ri5 if you have that
I love him
That was it thanks
looked up the tu6. could've sworn I tried that just a second ago.
ooh i got it too
phantom: common
oh I typed common just in case it was there
carla, did you get wordle yet?
yeah, I think in 5. had to sacrifice a guess to get letter placement. I had 3 yellows from guess 2.
the uncommon letter today tripped me a bit
I should have had it sooner but was overlooking that one too
I did get in the 200s on speed on squaredle, though I'm sure that'll change as the day goes on.
now hopefully no one gets mad about a spoiler😑
i have never looke at my speed on squardlle.
I don't really bother with the accuracy. and the bonus words is just it is what it is. I can't find anymore bonus words after finishing. I just try everything I know trying to get the words, so once I finish I can't see any more bonus ones.
I don't go for more bonus words either. when im done, im done
in6, please?
those people that get every bonus word should play here
in + the majority
freeman, similar to an in9 that could describe your feelings, etc.
Thanks got it
hi all.
clue for the di 6 please?
compound jbp. turn down the lights
thanks Bea --silly word.
yw
thanks jbp that grayed last column for me ;)
I do what I can. ;-)
and bzzn ofc
I find it amusing that uterus is masculine. grammatically /etymologically speaking
nbt, nbs, time to forage some breakfast. bbl
jbp, I remember reading about how ancient men in Europe believed that the uterus was merely an empty vessel to hold sperm, and that the woman herself contributed nothing to the creation of a child other than being a vessel. Of course, when I think about, men were the namers of everything until a microsecond ago in human time.
namaste
I'm just getting started and this grid seems more difficult today. Is it me, or is it the grid? Either answer I'll accept! lol
i think it's better than yesterday's
In that case, it's me. Some days my brain is not adequate to the task at hand. :)
it takes a bit to get in4/4, just start throwing g and u's in words
thanks for the tip.
LeslieAnn, you joined babble just 4 days after I did, in 2005. I thought your name seemed familiar!
those were the days eh?
Yes, in some ways very different than today. We were a much smaller group back then, and we didn't have the helps like Lickety.
you could usually find a list though - being the completionist i am, i wouldn't be happy sludging halfway through
now i don't mind as much
Me too! I was careful not to start one of those giant grids unless I felt I could finish it. And by necessity, the chat was far more focused on helping each other. But I do enjoy Lickety's list. And, like you just mentioned, there are days when I get to an unfinished point and think, "That's enough for today." :)
And on that cheerful note, I'm diving back in. Good to see you today!
likewise!
good morning everyone :)

I have one cr5 and can't find the other one. Here is the definition of the one I have: a small container for salt, pepper, oil, or vinegar for use at a dining table. So I need a clue for the other one please?
