10:39 am

ok so you seee Elian is in the grid and i thought, what ever happened to that kid Elian Gonzalez from cuba that was in the news years ago. well Elián González grew up in Cuba, earned an engineering degree, and worked as an industrial engineer. In 2023, he was elected to the National Assembly of People's Power, representing Cárdenas, Cuba.

10:40 am

so that's nice, he's doing well

10:40 am

was he deported?

10:40 am

well it was a custody dispute between his divorced parents

10:41 am

I remember that.

10:41 am

On November 21, 1999, Elián's mother, her partner, and Elián fled Cuba by boat as part of a group of refugees attempting to reach the United States. The boat sank during the journey, and Elián's mother, along with most of the passengers, drowned. Elián was found floating on an inner tube and rescued by two fishermen, who turned him over to the U.S. Coast Guard.

10:41 am

Good to see him so successfu.

10:41 am

The Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) granted Elián temporary permission to stay in the U.S. and placed him with his great-uncle, Lázaro González, in Miami. His great-uncle wanted Elián to remain in the country, while his father, Juan Miguel González, sought his return to Cuba. This led to a high-profile and protracted custody battle involving his father, his Miami relatives, and U.S. and Cuban officials. Elián was returned to his father's custody after an INS raid on his Miami relatives' home on April 22, 2000. They returned to Cuba when the legal dispute concluded on June 28, 2000.

10:42 am

I remember that boat sinking but Elian's story didn't make the news here, or I just didn't see it

10:43 am

hi everyone - long time lurker over here. Thought I'd share that I was listening to a song by rascal flatts just now and realised the song title was a word I didn't have yet! nice little unexpected inspiration - Re6/33

10:43 am

well, i mean, it makes sense that it would be big news in the US but not canada, since canada wasn't involved

10:44 am

10:48 am

10:48 am

I'm still missing one e from there

10:49 am

10:49 am

that you haven't mentioned :D

10:49 am

oh one of them is the past tense

10:49 am

so THREE finale words

10:50 am

11:16 am

correct

11:17 am

but what is pound cake? what is its main characteristic?

11:17 am

got de 9.

11:17 am

aHA and the da9 is similar in being a verb of that sort - a verb where you make someone more of a da5 (not in grid), which is an old word for a metrosexual kind of

Okay, now I can start my day. :)
