1:34 am
Erda
You can say that again...
1:35 am
Cat9x
Not for me, I don't know alot of the obscure words, haven't been playing long enough to learn them I guess. I rarely complete them, but I do have fun finding the ones I can, might help if I use the clue pages, but I don't.
1:35 am
Atalante
oh lovely ...
1:35 am
Atalante
that's all it is though, Cat. Fun finding words. And you'll soon start to recognise some of the wierd ones
1:36 am
Erda
I am with you Cat9: fun as far as it goes, which is not very...
1:36 am
Cat9x
I agree Atalante, I have learned some words I never knew by monkey typing :) And now I do recognize them when I see them again
1:37 am
mrpresident
Hi everyone!
ok, the ro8 and the ha8 have the same ending - one that is not on time
1:37 am
Cat9x
exactly Erda, I do get discouraged though when seems I am missing more than I can find
1:38 am
Erda
or it takes you forever to find a word you never heard of and never will
1:38 am
Paige & Maddie
hey mrp we are in Miss ABS' class!!!
1:38 am
Atalante
everyone starts that way, cat. its soooo frustrating, but really most of the "improvement" is just learning babble words - which you're doing!

3:13 am
KittyVane
ro8/45 means: Arranged in little roselike clusters and it has the same ending as the ha8

Thank you Avaneko!
3:21 am
Cat9x
its 2 grids below that show how many letter tiles are used in words in the grid, as you enter words, the numbers change. For instance, the top left i, is used in 6 words, and I have 2 of them.
3:21 am
Cat9x
meaning that the words start with that letter
3:21 am
Cat9x
sorry, didnt explain too well
3:22 am
cg530
hmm, i seem to have than anyway...so maybe i would get to have the icon and profile...
3:22 am
Cat9x
I had the stats free for 2 weeks, then they went away, so I went pro
3:22 am
rosalind230
you get them on a 14day free trial
3:22 am
FMitch
The stats are only available for a trial period I believe
3:22 am
KittyVane
Same here
3:23 am
Avaneko
heh. this grid us one tile away from a big word that means carnal relations.
3:23 am
Cat9x
its worth the 14.95 to me to have the stats back
3:23 am
KittyVane
It's an evil plot to get you addicted to them and once your trial period runs out, you just have to go pro so you can have them back! ;)
3:23 am
cg530
another clue for mi6/24,mi7/36: person/people who chop garlic into teeny little pieces...

6:00 am
Atalante
if you've got that one, the other 5 is a plural
6:00 am
Dianne
Jess - when you have a bad cold and have trouble swallowing you might have a sore th****.
6:00 am
amandacath
"close" was for the six - one 5 is a plural, one is a foolish hat

76 is a good start as todays grid is a real doozie.
11:04 am

wow that is great, and yes a hard thing to buy for.
12:28 pm
musicmom
ERda - champagne would be a bad idea
12:28 pm
TheFiz
For about 5 years, she poured her heart into this amazing fish tank. Then we moved and she changed jobs and we never set it up in the new house. which gives me a great idea.
12:28 pm
Erda
oops -- SO sorry -- beating myself over the head...
12:28 pm
tndaisy1960
not "mock" champagne:) we do that...and fake beer...and wine...and we're fine:)
12:29 pm
stidmama
and in case you're wondering (just looked it up) ha 8 means "Furnished with a small hook; hook-shaped"

12:30 pm
Kaetchen
Marine or freshwater, Fiz?
12:30 pm
stidmama
(chanting) fish, fish, fish -- but NOT fish for dinner that night!
12:31 pm

Freshwater - and I better do some research, goldfish in a bowl are about my level of expertise.
12:31 pm
TheFiz
thanks, all - you're awesome.
12:31 pm
Kaetchen
Get to a good aquarium store - they can help select fish that work well together. Tetras are great for starting a tank, as are rasboras - both are hardy and look pretty in schools.
12:32 pm
stidmama
tetras are nice freshwater fish and they're pretty.
12:32 pm
Atalante
and make sure you get "other" bits too - snails, weed etc
12:32 pm
musicmom
TheFiz -- maybe a gift certificate to the fish store that she could pour her energy into since she enjoys that
12:32 pm
musicmom
brb need to take care of business

Get a nice book on fishes and a gift certificate!

thanks - when I was a kid I desperately wanted feathered bangs, and my mom wouldn't let me get them. Then I came home from seeing Top Gun and wanted the Ice Man flat top. I think my mom still thinks I wouldn't be such a big bad dyke if she'd let me get an Angels haircut.

3:50 pm
Dachef
I love all the religious furore around the book. At what point did Mr Brown say it wasnt FICTION! All that free publicity, I bet hes laughing all the way to the bank.
3:50 pm

here's another bit of movie fun: when they were making clueless, alicia silverstone was only 17. they hadn't told her to say "hate-ee-ans" instead of "hay-shens" (haitians), she just thought that was how you say it. it fit so perfectly with the character that they didn't tell her the correct pronunciation until later for fear she'd be embarrassed and want to change it.

nrkii
it's a 4/5, but you didn't mention it
7:22 pm
hetty
I see from the word list that I've mistaken the value of the word I'm missing--it must be a 4/5
7:22 pm
FranMag
hi everyone, had to get the kids fed, still stuck on to6/21 and it's plural 7/32. tried googling yeast-like fungus, but there are an awful lot of them
7:23 pm
nrkii
fran, make it sound like another word for dad (more formal)
7:23 pm
hetty
No, IDONT have the baby's bottom. Oh nkrii, if you WERE here I'd hug younto pieces. Thanks everyone. My panic for today is over.
7:24 pm
nrkii
oh but I can't make a plural out of that one fran, so maybe there's another?!
7:25 pm
hetty
franmag, the to6/21 is the sing.of the to/7--just lop off the "e"

7:27 pm
hetty
If you dont have the to7/32, then after to use the word to govern (as king) minus its "e" and add a (tra-la-)**and a second vowel
7:28 pm
hetty
I'm told the grids are quite random. Th couldn't be planned to be as frustrating as they are.
7:28 pm
FranMag

7:29 pm

7:29 pm
FranMag
ls1, it's T+not this one, the o****
7:30 pm
libarebel
I thought that the grids were made w/ a random selection of a computer
7:31 pm
libarebel
and that then the computer could calculate words, points, etc.? :]
7:31 pm
FranMag
they may be random, but it's strange that we had two yeast-like fungi on one grid, isn't it?
7:31 pm
bgood2animals
so, the grids were made automatically and word counts verified by the Enable dictionary?
7:32 pm
libarebel
hmmm...
7:33 pm
libarebel
I don't know if the Enable dictionary is the source??
7:34 pm

the first 2 du's, blegirl, are 1) an archaic term for sweet sounding--poets spoke of du****tones. Think of the maiden with the dulcimer in Kubla Kahn. The second one is Aexandre DU*** minus his last letter
