Weird oi7/8
it's an ancient Greek healing remedy -- a mixture of honey and wine, sounds wonderful
Yes, I looked it up
Don't take any wooden _____. This was a clue on Jeopardy the other day and none of the contestants knew the correct answer.
Got the oi with saanichcat's definition!
honey and wine gives you the root words :)
good morning everyone
gm!
and hello from the grid
hah
I tried it!
that oi8 is supposed to be oe8
Take it from Zorba
yeah, but that's through latin
in greek it's oi-
well you get the tiara today mael
Back in a bit for last 20.
Everything I see in Google has that word starting with oe
it's spelled both ways, as far as I know
wow.. I'm stuck.. this is a tougher grid
Oh great. If Ru thinks it's tough, the rest of us are screwed.
Tried google. Got mead and other things but no oi or oe.
Got it. Put in ancient greek first. And it was oe. But i changed it and got it.
A Google search of "greek remedy of honey and wine" brings it right up
Any clues for the 9?
the 9 is an 8/9 IN words
Ty for oi7 and oi8
Ty marksdolly. What does IN mean?
It means the words start with IN
Usually not out...
Sometimes surrounded by
Ty
Well not getting the 8/9 in words. Have the other in 8 but not that one.
Got them finally. Wow. Ty
well... thank god for that
🙄🙄🙄
LOL!
e
Intersting. I start my day with something similar to the oi7.
h'lo babblers
hidey ho
phantom: trite
phantom roommate
hmmmmm
it's all there!
no not hmmmm at you, I'M no gatekeeper of phantoms
just wondering what else i can do with the top T when it feels like i've done everything and still need 2
I didn't think so but am used to having to defend them
Which top T?
ah, haven't looked at those yet. I started going down, then realized I'd rather do 2nd row M before 2nd col M
left
My last one from there was ti 6/21, the 2nd one.
well i have two such words, are there more?
No, only 2. So it's not that...
i mean i got the te5/12 babblet and everything
oh there's one i thought i entered but guess it didn't go, so that just leaves one
Do you have the 7?
ummmmm no
that'll be it then!
trisomy isn't there... ternian didn't work...
ends in charged particle.
phantom: inertia, which is me on the sofa
You're almost there!
yay thanks!
top row grey!
yay!
I hear you shirl. Mr. B and i were just making plans for when we get over the lazies.
haha
when? if for me lol
i was so proud of myself yesterday i got several little things done from my to-do list
felt like a good start to the year
FW! last word was am7/32. Need any hints before I go?
my biggest task was deciding what / if any media I would stream -- I got myself a new TV (tariffs you know) and Samsung must have bought all this content
thanks for that one champ
did you know that there is a whole channel for Little House on the Prairie reruns? and of course movies all over the place
d'you know Weird Al's song "Cable TV"?
Hagd, all! Enjoy streaming, Shirl!
I don't remember that one hursh
i would bet you can find it on youtube
more media to stream lol
here's a couple of lines: "and now i get to watch the stock report in Korean, midget wrestling on channel 3..."
pretty much -- a channel for every taste and all FREE
geez, I leave for a few minutes and miss all this.
so easy to be a couch potato
ugh i see keep trying "intel"
I'm still trying to figure out what that in8/9 combo is
they didn't have room for a normal word like intel with all the foreign currencies
oh! well i didn't know there was such a combo so i will look
think sound
i was scrolling back in the chog and saw that nudge
thanks, bea
thanks bea
hadn't gotten to the i but surely wouldn't have seen that upside down and backwards
phantom: aorta
good morning everyone :)
hey nan
ooo, thx bea, got the in8/9 now
As are making me feel stupid, even with champ's one and two related words
roommate is a pretty decent phantom hokie..
thank you for being so gracious 🤣
gosh, that's a lot of Ms too
yep
And I can't get half way on either.
I like being a gatekeeper actually
I found 28 on the upper one before I got distracted
someone has to rein you guys in
oh i got to 33 on the upper, haven't done lower at all yet
phantom: motley
We have a feral by that name. She's a torty.
for some reason I was thinking there was a T like spanish 30. what am I thinking of?
triens perhaps?
and does she have a friend = Crew
maybe
She had several Crews before I could TNR.
that is trap, neuter, release for ruru
as opposed to GNR, which is Guns 'n Roses
But she was a horrible mother and none survived.
*sobbing*
and speaking of hair bands, NTPN in the grid!
good thing she's been N

ðŸ˜
Actually on season 6 of an Elementary rewatch
oh, I've seen recently it's on one of the streaming services. I watched it when it first aired but haven't rewatched.
it's on disney
which i think engulfed hulu?
yes, and also owns ABC, which didn't it originally air on that? or was it NBC?
i have no idea, haven't watched tv on an actual tv network in literal decades ahahahha
that show started in 2012. I know that seems like yesterday, but it's not.
we've been watching Killing Eve, have you seen that?
on the last season now
yeah, no... i mean i haven't actually had tv tv since, uhm... 1999ish?
yeah, I can't remember when we cut the cable. not quite that long ago, but a long time.
watched a couple shows at a friend's place while I was in college, before that had cable for about 2 years at my aunt's place, and before that grew up with channels 2, 4, 6, and sometimes 8 when the weather was right
I'm actually a big tv junkie ðŸ˜
between that and compulsive completism... i've watched some stuff hard all the way through, and a lot of stuff not at all.
series that I've watched multiple times: buffy, x-files, firefly
I think x-files was something I watched when I lived with my aunt, and lost it when I went away to college
have watched buffy and firefly (and the movies). Also every star trek ever made as far as I know
x-files I sometimes skip the alien episodes and just watch the monster of the week.
have seen every brady bunch many, many times as well
pretty sure I only saw the occasional episode at my gramma's house
used to watch it every day when we got home from school. my brothers & I can tell you the episode in about one minute.
heh. our "after school" shows were Yan Can Cook and Star Trek
have only seen a couple of scenes from star trek over the years
I know there are a lot of trekkies here so hopefully this isn't too shocking
okay, gonna make a push for these last 5 4's and then list
lol, have found 2 5's and a 7 but no 4's
well, there's a LOT of trek, and it aired all over the place over years and years (and is still making new episodes) so it's less common to find someone who's seen it all than someone who's seen a few.
this lower M is quite a mystery. still 5 left there.
heh. i have found 6 from it :P
oh, just made up a 6/7 from there
it's not easy
evening
mooooo
hi moolingwa :)
another non tv junkie
(if we're going to be formal) good evening jesdraggon
Yes, I watch a ton of non tv
heh. only formal because I don't know how you prefer to abbreviate and don't want to assume
are you just starting, moo?
oh, you could abbreviate me however you please :) I'll even respond to a blank space
no, 31 left
8-6-8-5-4
20 here. 4-3-9-3-1 you know, the usual
ahahaha. but a blank space could be anybody
found a 6-7 combo
exactly :)
happy new year to you both, or somesuch
back atcha
either of you finish the w?
I did
i have 5 of the 7
okay, guess my missing w
(P&TY)
w5
we4/8
either that or w4 ;)
oh, hey, there's another 5
have 3 of each
so I guess you did guess it
yep, was right
which leads to ANOTHER 5 and done with the w
thanks!
found another 6
werd to your mother
found a 4...woo
and a 7/8 combo
finally half way!
woohoo!
woot
a 6/7 combo
still 20
4OFOET

21 now.... 5-6-5-2-3
3OFOET
one o5 babblet and one strange o7/8
figured
W TTTT R RRR ii A MM N MMM TT
T D RR I A MM OO S MM TTT AA E
cross off the E
last D took me forever, but it's not unusual here
and one of the bottom A's
cross off the D ;)
just had to find the "right" letter combination :)
words just falling out the grid on ya'll's screens and passing me by
hardy har, moo (but I knew that was it)
ah sorry, first time I've really been focusing on the board
not really, jes. still 20.
16 here
so you're a hundred ahead of me, hokie :P
apparently I have maxed out
yes but I've been here several times today and played some of the small tiles at the flip last night.
another 6
gonna have to list so I can go to sleep
still 4 4's though
I'm about to play video games with my daughter
I'm about to have mr homie complain that my keyboard is too loud
buy him some ear muffs
2OFOET
I sleep with noise cancelling earbuds for his snoring
Loops earbuds are fantastic for decreasing background noise. Late christmas/merry unbirthday gift?
our anniversary is next week and his birthday is in 2ish weeks
Perfect!
yeah my wife's b'day is on the 13th
Also, they are comfortable and low-profile enough to sleep in, get some for yourself :)
I use nothing ear(a), but these loop look more comfy for sleep
okay, that w is dumb, right?
how do you pt an adj?
I've bought several sets (because I lose things). They are SOOOO helpful for dealing with being out in public and noise.
do you need w clues? That's like the one thing I actually have all of.
no, I found it with the list, which is why I was complaining
oh, the past tense 5? It means twisted, not sardonic :P
interesting. there was no def in the dictionary link.
well, my i's are still a mystery with the list. moving on.
yeah, i bet listing would help. i should do that
I can't deal with it until I get under 30
and it's not helping much.
well how did I miss the boob guy
to6? just found him a moment ago
ti6
whaaaat
that's a legal word?!?!?
depends on your definition of legal
ahahaha. okay, well, there's a to6 that's a guy's name + boob
must mean something else, right?
but I already had it, albeit found it latish
legal = enable will give you points for it
;)
thanks, didn't have that one. a bird?
down to 13 here, but it's mostly because of 4s
1-3-4-2-3
still 5 with list
T RR I A M OO S MM T A
T R R ii
and now the dog wants to be let out
pats for the pup, moo
some very weird definitions for that ti6. and yet intel is not accepted
yes, those definitions come up short
okay, found everything but the i's now
finally. tada
whoo! yay!
congrats
still 13
thanks guys
greyed the right column
nothing unusual moo, except the o set
yeah...
curious if you could even get it with the def
well given it's spot...
it's an ancient thing
I'd take definition for those o's just in case :)
well I'll just time travel back and check their dictionaries...
ftr, there is no def in this link, but I think molly said it was ancient greek wine
figured it was either greek or egyption
oi, jes. I think you all might be able to work it out with that.
if not , think of the inside of rolos
caramel?
who doesn't think about the inside of rolos
not clicking. gotta go feed the furry freeloaders and make sure spouse didn't just drop a shower door on himself. back in a bit :)
oh dear
now I have to wait and see
a lot of people hate rolos but i actually love them. they are better than they were back in the day.
well, that was a word
I had completely forgotten too look at that side
maybe if you made the rolos for pigs?
I wonder how many times in the history of this game that word has appeared
Well, I've played a lot of boggle like games, probably in the 50k range or higher...
and? how many times have you seen it?
let me count...
zero
but the first part of the word is very literal
it's all greek to me
well don't whine about it
9 to go
1-1-4-1-2
oh illy, found an 8
silly, notilly
keyboard on my laptop is dying a slow death
Mine too. Or it just needs cleaning. But I just heard a complaint about how loud mine supposedly is, even though I just heard snoring before so now on the ipad
your laptop snores? :D
back again, everyone's fed, nobody's crushed
Oh good
Well, everything else does - Winston, mr homie
well internet gives me a word to try but the end of it doesn't work.
Most of a pig sound at beginning and ends with end of rolo inside(s)
That leaves just one letter in the middle
ah, thanks!
No prob
well I'm done with this board...8 left
Well done, moo
g'night, moo!
Enjoy the video games. I could probably guess some of yours but I know you don’t want that.
heh. Elementary episode is about avian influenza
how very timely
What’s old is new. Or something.
heh. maybe someday we'll learn something from that.
