Well, one left side D away from HOET. 88 left for tomorrow.
p
Watching the snow plow/shovel guys having a meeting across the parking lot from my window :) Seems one spot is particularly difficult.
well I have to know, did they get it?
guess I better get used to disappointment
... it would have depended upon how close the nearest Tim's was and how much coffee they felt like drinking ...
ðŸ˜â˜•ï¸ðŸ©
raps
sorry about that
dos, do you have the left D? I only have 2 DR and can't find anything else.
... probably have the same two that you've got ... ... dr5/12 dr4/9
yep
I have actually tried DW and DH too. and phantom drats.
... I'll take another try ... .. actually finding this one a bit slow
I played on my ipad last night, which is slow, so doing a 2nd pass now and typing everything again.
too bad you can't count the words twice
yeah, but then they'd just have the stats double 😜
... I cheated and looked at Lickety .... dw5/6/6 .... uses what may be your favourite beverage
not me, but thanks! never seen that before.
HOET!
of course not in dictionary.com
now just need 2 P's for first col
... with 368 words ya gotta expect a few of those
yep
hello...stats for the 9 pls
I have found both 8's but no 9's
... not me yet
... just found my last two from the corner P .. .. pe5/20 6/33 ... I think it's an alternate spelling for a small bird
se9/60
ty
darn, I have those but thanks
phantom sparrow

ty

well no luck with the 9. ty anyway
any clues for bottom row A words third column? two words and not seeing then.
good morning all
some how the sp9 builds off the sp4
ty phae.
i have two sp 4s.
oops three sp 4s.
now 4 sp 4s.
the second one
ruru!
there are only 3 sp4's
sorry 4 sp4's
spooky! theres a small bird in grid I had just put it in, looked up and there was one on my patio. Only second one I've seen since living here
i have four. one is sp with different vowel.
neat, deeha
great deeha.
too bad you couldn't have tweeted about it deeha
now what is ruru chirping about
hahaha
we're trying to feather some humor in the chat
its probably that beak-er of coffee he's just had
well usually I'm just winging it
there is also a se9/60
so the 9s are SP and SE?
oh, there
thats a tall tail
yes
have made it to 29 left. 2-9-10-6-0-2
sparteine

I think I can guess from here now
me too!
oops indeed. many apologies. Ill keep quiet from now on
still missing bottom row A third column if anyone has it. ty..........or a clue perhaps.
the def says something about "species of broom". I don't think that word means what I think it means.
deeha we still like you
... think poking holes into your lawn
I would have never gotten that without you, deeha. don't disappear.
me too. now for bottom row A words....all help needed.
just realized that was my last S there.
did you see dos's clue, mkg? for the A
great carla
yup. thinking.
ty dos.
... most welcome
GOT THEM! TY DOS.
Now just to get half way
PP WW SSSSSSS i N W TTT R RRRR PPPPP
at least I have grayed a few tiles. but so many left on most of the remaining ones
38 re words!
if I counted right I have 37
found my last word on the left R, an RA comparative
now just one R left!
(plus 22 other words)
well, this has reached the definition of insanity on the P and the first S. just typing the same things over and over. 21 left for later. 1-6-8-5-0-1
the p's are endless. i have six to go though
of course I'm still here. found 3 words. still have 2 + 3 P's.
i have all the p's now whew
hey, whew is in the grid
so sue me
He's th P King. he doesn't care
still have PP WW Sx7 TT R PPP 1-5-5-5-0-1
lol. you could've said shew, that's in the grid too
yeah, I can tell he's very smug about the P's
is he the P King or the PP King?
any PS words, P King?
nope
pshaw
I did try pshew earlier just in case
just the one ph?
yes
mk ty
too hot too hot se7 :D
that's so weird
you can pl wh4 but not ph4? they're basically the same word
fw
grats phae
ty...gl
phantom: etna
woohoo, Ts Toppled!
i wonder if all 7 of hokie's S were from the same S, or some from each...
Er6/21……..clue please
going to the grocery store?
thanks, ru
So sorry ru….I can’t figure out your clue.
any little outing that you must do that's not fun necessarily, like the dry cleaner, the grocery shopping, the bank...
ER6 getting groceries, then dry cleaning, then filling up with gas, then picking up the kids etc
bottom row grey!
all rows grey.. tough arduous grid today
Ty ru ….I was going right instead of left
really, i'm finding it pretty nice
but the end might turn out tedious
any pt?
well, I got some things done. back for last 17.
hi hokie :)
21 to go here
but i haven't found either 9
I have one 9 that was accidentally typed into the chat
o dear
I know what the other starts with but don't have it
1-5-5-5-0-1
ok yes i see they were called, se9 and sp9
I have PP WW Sx7 TT R(2nd) PPP
i'm GUESSING the sp9 would be from the lower sp
yes
is it weird or normal?
weird, I never would have gotten it
clue then?
kinda like part of an artificial sweetener (that's a stretch)
or a word meaning bare (like in decorating) with a weird ending
it's actually a bitter, poisonous, liquid alkaloid obtained from certain species of broom
fireworks here! tada!
and again I say, what is a broom?
well done, dolly!
well, it was enough to make me understand what the first four letters were and then i was able to MW it
it is a grass
broom
ah, I knew bea would know!
any shrubby plant belonging to the genus Genista or the genus Cytisus, of the legume family, especially C. scoparius, common in Western Europe on uncultivated ground and having long, slender branches bearing yellow flowers.
I'm guessing that's what brooms were made of back in the day
i wonder if it's any relation to forsythia
no, looks like not
forsythia is in the olive family, apparently
ok and se9 pretty much has to be weird, there's hardly potential for anything normal there
wow - a whopper - hopefully not too many weird and wonderful ones
been pretty easy so far, nan. but as usual some weird ones.
just found my last R!
se9 is another word for beach
compound word
hmm, not seashore
oh then that might not be too weird!
got it, thanks, bea
1-5-4-5
woot woot!
1-5-5-6
found an S5!
phantom wiretap
found my 4, a regular S
and almost missed the 5 that goes with it 🤣
some 7s i have that don't seem to have been called before: pe7 x 3, si, ne, and a third en
0-3-4-5
when there's 35 7's they don't always get called
from what i had and the chog i've scared up a list of 32 7s but there will be 3 that i don't know what they start with
right but as people try to complete them it's nice to start to get a full list if poss
apparently i need at least 2 more pa7!
there's one..
I think I have 10 PA7. how many are there?
yeah i only had 8. now 9
the ones i had were mostly normal, just found the one that looks a lot like ea7.
any thoughts on which one i'd still be missing?
3 related to a fun event, another right after that
3 that start like the one you mentioned
i think perhaps that i need the one "right after that" then
what some people call spouse these days
aha got it!
ok and then i know i need one more re7 also
all 3 of mine are "again" words
all are different forms of a root word
aha found the last
you need PT of re5/10 then
like a varnish
oHO then there are FIVE re7
(at least. unless there is one more.)
1-5-5-2
I have finished R, maybe I counted wrong
yes, I have 5
only 4 had been previously called :D
PP WW SSS TT PPP
and you still need some 7s also?
yes, 5!
but perhaps you can tell me if you have: more than one A7, more than 5 E7, or more than 2 N7
almost witness
I do not
mk so then the other 2 7s are P, W, S, or T
wel you saw where i said 3 pe7 right?
i don't have any W7
I might've missed that. I only have one.
just one TA7
and i have one each se7, si7, sp7, st7, sw7
the T is for sure the only T7 because i am done with T
forgot to notice that earlier
so I need 1 SE7 and 2 PE7 and 2 others
makes sense cause i'm missing 2
2 pe7s are comparative and the other is a spanish looking word, pl
se7 is a kind of chili pepper
I always miss the pepper
ok, got the other pe7 comp. could've sworn I tried that hours ago.
oh, there's my 2 top P's. I was looking at the bottom and typed the spanish one even though I couldn't see it.
:D
any thoughts on my missing A, E, or N would be welcome
so last 2 7's are still W, S, T, or P
0-3-3-2
NOT T
cause i'm done with T
WW SS TT PP
oh yeah
so my t's might be a 5/6 set (I have the babblets)
the A i need is 4th row, the E is 3rd row, then N is 2nd row
do you have the N card game?
yes, a favorite of me and my sister
6 in a row with the high pt tile
yes
my last one was UK pl
oh i forgot to pl the ni4, lol
do you still have a 4 left?
my last A on 4th row was ae4
yeah
oho, mine too!
how funny
hard to see
aha, et5!
was just typing out a guess for that
did you get ta5/6 that rhyme with the ballet thing you hold onto
yeah
two plurals for land... tr5/18...
(those are two separate guesses)
I have all 3 of those
hmmm then idk what else you would have missed
usual suspects all
it's a real mystery
will read through my list
10 ta, 13 te, 9 ti, 5 tr, 1 ts
I even got the TS today
btw you said you finished top P? i need one there
aha, 2 ti
the ringworm ones?
argh, thanks
not sure I was ever going to see those today
okay WW SS PP 0-2-2-2
feels like these are all sets
any thoughts on my one upper P?
do you need one or two?
one
and finished 4s with that ae
maybe pe5/12. most everything is in a set but that
ty!
np
do you have pa6/21, the nasty licorice flavored drink
maybe
or how about pe6/21 that's like Evita
I def. have that one
right before that but after the one you clued me is another pe5/12
but here i am guessing singles when you need 2
ok I don't have one there. also probably don't have this licorice one either.
how about the thing you get for an invention minus last letter, and pl
ok, got the 5. forgot about that word
I think I prob need that pa6
the pa6 comes right before the chicken liver spread
or duck liver
got it, thx
so now the 7's are definitely W or S
yeah
phantom sweater
and i still need one P, lower
also one R, middle column
oh oh i got the R it is a meal!
ha, was just going to tell you that was my last one
okay, I lost patience and looked at the list. we'll see how long it takes me to find the words.
tada
ok me too then
got my P
overall, it was a good one. I think I got about 95% on my own.
for those in the cheap seats, there are two si7
you mean the lurkers like bea and moo
and a wi7
i mean whoever... i like to help people who might want help
I know, I was just saying hi to bea an moo
well, guess I should eat lunch and get on with my day. it is supposedly 52 out now but it's so cold in my room that I can't believe it.

coming up for air - 239 so far, but need a break :)
keep thinking there should be some "before" words, but haven't found any yet
It's currently -26F/-32C out here, and about 59F/15C in my apartment.
And we were having such a balmy winter, too!
Where in Canada are you Gillie?
Calgary
Brrrr
I know - but it's supposed to improve quite a bit by tomorrow
Cold here, but not Calgary cold
no where else is Calgary cold, I suspect
that wind across the prairies is... unbelievable
I think Edmonton is maybe a bit colder
And it is definitely colder in much (maybe all) of the Yukon and Northwest Territories
-11 F right now and that is bitterly cold for Kelowna
oops just changed (phone just fired up) it is 9F - still colder than normal
think - 11 was the overnight low
warming trend beginning - that will be nice
