how was the baseball game a week ago or so
good morning everyone -- not sure I want to tackle this, but here goes
it's a bit of a toughie nan
I like big grids
if you think it is tough, I'll get nowhere!
it's ok until you get to the last 50
i think it's always tougher with no S
phantom aperture
oh that was one of mine too bea!
I don't need to finish large grids. It's just to see how far I can go.
phantom: rumor

so i saw this video clip posted on fb where CBS news was interviewing a man who resigned from ICE rather than perpetuate a lie. and then i looked up the full interview and found it was from 7 years ago, during the FIRST trump administration. and idk if that makes it worse or better.
worse
while they were interviewing him two agents from DHS showed up at his house unexpectedly to intimidate him
This is why social media is such a risky place to get your information.
Especially Facebook -
yes, well, i do tend to either look at reliable sources, or check things that i don't know the source, but i know most people do not
i mean it would definitely help if everything had a date stamp on it.
even when you search for something it is hard to tell which articles are fake or have no basis in fact. I've been trying to get info on whether or not there is any correlation between airpod use and glioma -- hard to tell if even the scientific looking ones are authentic.
i saw this one funny video where it was a "method" for putting on socks, and everyone was like, "this is so stupid, it's easier to just put on your sock the normal way" and i was like, i'm pretty sure that was the POINT, to mock all the other "life hack" videos
Nan, have you asked your doctor?
I haven't been talking to her about that. My granddaughter had a tumor removed last Friday and it was glioma
pretty sure the only known health risk with air pods is the same as all past headphones - too much loud listening banging away at your ears will damage your hearing
I hate these grids where just about every word can be found going in two directions
I rarely comment, but sorry about your granddaughter cybernan. I hope she gets a good outcome!
me too
ty swmbo and hurshy
I'm not sure what a glioma is but I hope she's better soon
it is a cancerous growth in the brain
oh jeezus.
that's awful.
exactly!
so sorry nan.. is she doing better now? or it's too soon to tell
I'm still half asleep to be honest
the way nan phrased it, it sounds like they didn't know it was a glioma until they got it out and tested it
oh ugh.. scary stuff
which could mean she needs more tests to see if it is present elsewhere
but i am inferring just from phrasing and could be wrong
we are waiting for a 2nd pathology report to find out what type of glioma it is, but all are life threatening. She wil have to have radiation and chemo.
ugh, that sucks. how old is she?
35
it's always hard to see someone you stand in a "protector" role towards dealing with something you couldn't protect them from :(
yes it is
some very tough times ahead for her and for you. Hugs. Cancer is a bitch
It has certainly thrown our entire family for a loop.
i bet :(
I'm sure.

i will say for this grid that it has a lot of nice 7s
almost through the first pass and no 8 or 9 and no y or bottom n
the pe9 just jumped out at me LOL
two of those are connected - bottom N is ne8 (a past tense, of a six from the upper N)
maybe the last 50 were tough for ru, but the last 100 are going to be tough for me
is that a clue swmbo?
pe9 is a device for measuring your steps
ty hurshy
ah thanks
i only have one of the Y but it is yL4
the other is ye6, had a desire for
ty again - forgot that one
ah thanks
Gotta go. Sending good vibes for your grand daughter Nan
ty swmbo -- 3 black tiles now :)
ty swmbo
do you think pe 9 is an animal that jumps or hops
an instrument that counts footsteps nan
ty ru
can you tell I don't walk for exercise or use a treadmill?
i can't believe in 204 words i've only found one -ly adverb
any up words?
i have one up6, still missing one more U
ty - still need 2 more
one of mine is ur5/14, you might need that
yes! ty
nbt/nbs - off for breakfast
I only have ur4/5
found up6
ye6 please
wanted (i think more used in scotland?)
hmmm
but it's not like really obscure
it is to me
you can't know that unless you've found it lol
rhymes with a word for wrote, before typewriters
i refer to a P word (not in grid tho)
tyty hursh
ok NOW you can say whether it's obscure
yes still obscure
i just think, compared to some of the other scots words we get...
bbl
scots words? oh drat, I'm clearly going to have to start the grid
isn't there always obscure scots words here?
just the ye6, today, which i feel is not as obscure as many of the others we sometimes get
well I saw your clue but didn't know the stat, so I got it, thanks
I guessed it but never heard it used here!
well i was only speculating that that's where it was used, and i meant, you know, HISTORICALLY, but even then, could just be wrong
I think its just olde english
i just thought maybe "ken" for know, "yen" for yearn
apparently its derived from chinese
but merriam webster says it comes from chinese
jinx
go figure
obsolete English argot yen-yen craving for opium, from Chin (Guangdong) yin-yahn, from yin opium + yahn craving
ok that's so interesting - when i tried to post that it wouldn't go through until i removed the accent marks
I guess now I need to find the other 234 words
lol
well i've just finished at last, used list for the last 30 or so
cut myself slack on account of there being no S
what's up with the U?
one up6, the rest ur
3 of which are pee-related
ok, have 2 UR. I did look at UP briefly this morning. will try again, thanks.
keep seeing upturn
upnerd = get more geekier
phantom: neptune
hi again - just found my last u --- ur 6/21
yes, upnerd crossed my mind
finally found UR6 for HOET
but still 89 left
90 here
beginning to think my vocab is sadly lacking - although half of the words these days are ones you would never use.
missing one f - any guesses?
got it - another 6
bottom row black
Well, I'm done (listed at 50-some). Definitely a lot of odd words in this one
nice. the bottom row is definitely my closest but still need L R F there.
congrats, gillie. thinking I will just leave some today.
oh, found my L
ur6 please
started out really well but stalled with 79 left
ur6 is pee tube
thank u Bea. did not think to look to the left
bl
hi again - hope I can finish this time
i am as finished as i'll get on a medium-large grid on a night i'm getting home from work after the flip...minimal nbt/nbs, 211 words left. each of the 24 tiles that start any words starts exactly one word.
11 left, all 6's and 7's and I've had enough!
wtg nan! I'm still at 43
42. just samy 2nd y. DUH
*translation: just saw my 2nd y.
still 54 here. still need 9 on the upper R and I'm tired of looking at it.
I have most of those...I have 11 ro, and 2 ru
Of course re's, just saying.
just have 7 ro and 1 ru so I'll work there, thanks
I'm really hating this grid but I have no other games to play while I'm sitting here. LOL
Agree! still picking
have 10 4s I guess I can look for
still need 21 6s. and that is the problem with this grid and me.
I need 14. still need 6- 7s
only need 4 7's so I've got that going for me
This sucker is deceptively hard.
oh, there's the misspelled cat sound
Thank you!
of course
and the L6 makeup company
You are the best! ty
and take a letter out for a 5
got it
Again..annoyed by finding words that I KNOW I typed missing.
yeah, that happens to me in the big grids
oh, just found a 2nd hat
the b?
Ugh...the up just entered my mind. It's such a stupid word to me.
The up6 I mean. bbl....taking pups to play with their buds.
I have the be hat word. what are the stats for the other please
fe6
I have that :)
yes, the b was the one I just found. found the f this morning.
I found them both earlier just tired now
bye, champ. agree the up is stupid.
66 left will not finish this one either
down to 43 here but still have 7 4s and I'm looking specifically for them.
leaving 13 after listing
good night!
grid seems to go on forever...
it's because there's no S, this is a lot of words for a non-S grid

Nardole is in the grid
so he is!
halfway done, woot
almost hoet, night all
