12:42 am

helenkeller

12:42 am

RocDragon

12:42 am

Erda

I know someone in San Francisco who actually has one of his paintings...

12:42 am

helenkeller

12:42 am

Uneaixoise

ohmygod, very impressive!

12:42 am

helenkeller

really erda - what does it look like?

12:43 am

stidmama

thanks for the word erda, didn't think to use it as a grid word!

12:43 am

helenkeller

(erda knows someone very, very wealthy!)

12:43 am

Erda

It's just a still life -- not one of the major items...still very nice!!

12:44 am

Erda

Once I came upon a blue Picasso madonna over someone's mantelpiece, also in San Francisco, and I almost fainted...

12:45 am

sfneil

hi everyone! Whose paintings are you talking about? (It's scrolled off the 'Chatterbox' panel and I don't know how to find it. Thanks!

12:45 am

cybernan

12:45 am

stidmama

12:45 am

mymuseisme

me to cnan, night everyone

12:45 am

helenkeller

about 15 years ago, i was tempted to buy a picasso sketch - a very, very rudimentary sketch, at a contemp. art show here, for $3000

12:45 am

Erda

One of the French Symbolists, Odilon Re***

12:45 am

helenkeller

erda runs with the big dogs!

12:45 am

Uneaixoise

only time that happened to me was when i was working in Paris and a friend had a very wealthy uncle and aunt who'd made a fortune in morel mushrooms and had SEVERAL works by "known" artists--took my breath away!

12:46 am

sfneil

Oh, thanks, Erda! I didn't even realize it was a clue!

12:46 am

jillibus

n ite, cybernan

12:46 am

helenkeller

wow une - i've only ever seen museum pieces in museums!

12:46 am

stidmama

12:47 am

jillibus

peon

12:47 am

jillibus

pone

12:47 am

helenkeller

nite stid

12:47 am

Erda

The Picasso was actually in the home of Frank Oppenheimer (Robert's brother), and when I started gushing over it, his wife said: "Yes, his father had a very good eye for up-and-coming artists..."

12:47 am

stidmama

now 145 to go, thanks Jill! ;-)

12:47 am

jillibus

uh oh - sorry!

12:47 am

jillibus

nite stid - and yw :(

12:48 am

Uneaixoise

i would have been in major gush mode in that situation too, erda!

12:48 am

helenkeller

lol - wow erda! so tell us a little more about yourself . . .

12:48 am

Erda

I always wondered where that madonna ended up...

12:49 am

Erda

I am an opera and classical music person, currently retired. Had a friend who was a nuclear physicist -- hence the Oppenheimer connection.

12:50 am

helenkeller

thought maybe you yourself were the physicist

12:50 am

melonheadjujube

did you sing, Erda? Is it Erda as in the Ring Cycle?

12:50 am

Erda

oh no -- conversation between the two men went whizz over my head...

12:51 am

Erda

Yes, melon, a major Wagner fan here...

12:52 am

Erda

NDidn't sing. Was editor of the San Francisco Opera magazine for 20 years. Accumulated a lot of knowledge there and that's why they called me Erda...

12:53 am

helenkeller

sigfried was the first opera i ever saw

12:53 am

melonheadjujube

I played opera here in Cleveland for over 20 years. We did Meistersinger in 1995, I think. It was the only Western hemisphere production that year.

12:54 am

elphaba

does anyone have the third eight? not the an or the ca?

12:54 am

Erda

Geez, that's a difficult start. It's probably my favorite Ring opera.

12:54 am

melonheadjujube

The worst thing about playing it - counting all the &*(*&% rests!

12:54 am

sfneil

I'm a fan of "What's Opera, Doc?" by Warner Brothers.. also like real opera, but have minimal exposure. Nice to meet you, Erda!

12:54 am

helenkeller

next i saw denise graves in carmen - that one kept me awake - lol

12:55 am

melonheadjujube

My favorite opera is Mozart's "Marriage of Figaro" - believe it or not, for a bassist, it's harder than wagner. The 2nd act finale is 12 pages of nonstop allegro.

12:55 am

Erda

Nice to meet you too, Neil

12:56 am

crazynotstupid

elp.. dont have the first two 8's

12:56 am

Uneaixoise

neil, if i were in SF right now, I'd be looking for Chorus Line tix!

12:56 am

Erda

The second act finale is one of the glories of western civilization

12:56 am

RocDragon

what's the 3rd 8?

12:56 am

melonheadjujube

Weirdest Opera experience - actually 2 of them: Playing Schoenberg's "Moses & Aron" @ Univ of Cincinnati. Then there was Staurt Copeland's "Holy Blood & Crescent Moon".

12:57 am

crazynotstupid

whats the first two 8's?

12:57 am

elphaba

if only i knew, roc. can clue the an/8 and ca/8 if needed.

12:57 am

melonheadjujube

back to Mozart - yes, Erda, exactly.

12:57 am

elphaba

except i'm not very good at clues!

12:57 am

Uneaixoise

elphaba, fabulous icon!

12:57 am

elphaba

thanks!

12:57 am

sfneil

Une... I saw Chorus Line at its London premiere (yes, I'm that old). I have been seriously considering buying tix for the current SF run.

12:58 am

Erda

those two are weird indeed, melon!! Tough and weird...

12:58 am

Uneaixoise

let's not talk "old"--I saw it SEVERAL times in its first incarnation! :-)

12:58 am

crazynotstupid

roc can u clue an/8 and cn/8

12:58 am

Erda

Gotta run -- I'll try this thing again tomorrow. Thanks for the chat...

12:58 am

elphaba

crazy, both are past tense of 6 letter words

12:59 am

helenkeller

bye fellow art lover!

12:59 am

chic

hello, just got the op8/50 on a guess.. it's two words...

12:59 am

melonheadjujube

1:00 am

helenkeller

ty chic :)

1:00 am

RocDragon

1:00 am

elphaba

1:00 am

RocDragon

51 to go

1:00 am

crazynotstupid

219 to go

1:01 am

elphaba

crud, i just realized that e in the upper left has nine words. drat those vowel words! always stumping me.

1:01 am

helenkeller

86 to go

1:01 am

crazynotstupid

i suck

1:02 am

RocDragon

hey there's a chinese word in here

1:02 am

melonheadjujube

got the last 8 - tx chic!

1:03 am

elphaba

those of you who use lickety's clues ... do you type things in here and then there? do you have a system for 'em? it seems like a lot of double typing, but i wonder if i'm doing it wrong.

1:03 am

melonheadjujube

oooh - & that got me to haslfway! thasitimouttahere! 'nite, laila tov, all.

1:03 am

Uneaixoise

night, melon!

1:03 am

debbinla

laila tov melon - gnight all - see you tomorrow

1:03 am

helenkeller

finally got that an8

1:03 am

helenkeller

good nite melon

1:04 am

chic

elphaba, I'm sure everybody uses the lists differently but I try to find all the words I can first and then print out the list and fill it in from there...

1:05 am

elphaba

thanks, chic. printing does seem like it would help.

1:06 am

RocDragon

i don't type in all the words but sometimes it turns out to be plenty when i need to try to narrow down my search alphabetically

1:06 am

melonheadjujube

i pull up lickey's clues on a separate window - i use the "rpintable clues" option. then i make that window really tall & skinny so it's always in view. I even use a separate browser for them - not sure why but it works.

1:06 am

helenkeller

no elph - what i do is find all the words i can by myself then go to the list & depending on how many i need, checkmark the fewest - those i have or those i need

1:06 am

melonheadjujube

i don't search the owrd list bc it bores the daylights out of me.

1:06 am

helenkeller

then erase the checks when i find the words - no need to double type

1:07 am

melonheadjujube

i can't ytpe! 'nite!

1:07 am

helenkeller

lol mel -nite

1:08 am

elphaba

thanks to all - good ideas all 'round. i've been using it letter by letter when I get fed up, but not sure how well that's working!

1:08 am

melonheadjujube

'nite hk - - & out...

I think that Dr. God should make the fireworks go boom instead of just look pretty. I like them, don't get me wrong, they are the *bestest* but, I think they should go kaboom anyway. :-) Done!

1:31 am

3:15 am

lynxxx

Hi Haz - I have made an early start today as at home nursing our Bobby who has had his (second) operation for kneee ligament repair (yes' I can't spell that cr word!). He is a very miserable dog.

3:16 am

I hope so. Anyway, have a good sleep jillibus and the British contingent - see you later.

3:28 am

All the Australians will be on soon ! 6.30 pm here. Now that is a scary thought.

3:28 am

jillibus

think of all the lovely words you'll get, Haz, without anyone to bother you - zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

3:28 am

Haz1558

Very reassuring, lynxxx!

3:29 am

Haz1558

Night jillibus (those zzzz don't fool me, you've tried that trick before) Sleep well.

3:33 am

Munner

zzzzzzo

3:34 am

Haz1558

Hello Munner - how are you?

3:34 am

Munner

I'm at 202 and it's 4:30 am here. Maybe I will finally fall asleep. My hands did that last word with no direction frome me.

3:35 am

Munner

Two days of steroids to avoid problems with the chemo treatment I had yesterday keeps me from sleeping. Two hours last night, but I think I can drop off now. See you all later for my last 33.

3:35 am

Haz1558

See you later, Munner - hope you manage to get some sleep.

3:36 am

lynxxx

Munner - wishing you at least 3 hours tonite - goodnite

3:36 am

Munner

Always enjoy chatting with you night owls. Too bad it's a big time difference.

3:37 am

Byzantine

may your recovery be expeditious and complete

3:37 am

Haz1558

It's a much slower pace at this time, the British are just waking up and the US folk are half-asleep. The Australians keep us on our toes!

3:38 am

lynxxx

Muner - just read your bio - you're doing it tough so pls keep a strong and positive mind. Been there myself and it IS amazing what they can do for you.

3:44 am

Haz1558

lynxxx - that e in the top corner is being very resistant to revealing any words to me. How are you getting on with it?

3:46 am

lynxxx

I think I've got five from there - try joining up with the co4 &5s for some

3:47 am

Haz1558

Thanks for the push!

3:47 am

lynxxx

Break time - halfway - got to carry the puppy outside!

3:48 am

Give him a cuddle from me - and I hope he gets better soon.

3:48 am

mrpresident

3:48 am

mrpresident

everyone... everyone... everyone...(practice typing)

3:48 am

Haz1558

Hello mrpresident! Are you well?

3:49 am

mrpresident

Hello Haz... well as a hole in the ground! and you??

3:49 am

scv

hellooo.

3:50 am

Haz1558

I'm fine thanks. Doing my first run through with the grid. I suppose you're nearly done?

3:50 am

Haz1558

Hello scv!

3:51 am

mrpresident

I am no where near done!! first run is not my style... I like to begin at the end... habit unfortunately... and so far the T's are a b***h!!

3:53 am

mrpresident

and what is a te6/27??? is it a tactic to get people to drink tea??

3:53 am

Haz1558

I like to get as many words as possible, then use the list to fill in the gaps - though I go from the beginning of the alphabet. There are some nice words today.

3:54 am

Haz1558

I'll have to find that one. (You've given a word away, but shhhh there's nobody going to worry)

3:54 am

mrpresident

shhhh!!! *sorry*

3:57 am

Haz1558

I've found it, thanks to more words. They're all the rage among the tw4/8 set.

3:58 am

M3

morning all, oh a biggie today. and so many C's !!!

3:59 am

Haz1558

Good morning M3. I hadn't looked properly to see how many, but you're right, lots and lots of them.

4:00 am

mrpresident

tw4/8 set?? is it something I missed in my personality??

4:00 am

FranMag

hi everyone!

4:00 am

mrpresident

hello fran and M3!

4:01 am

FranMag

hi mrp!

4:01 am

Haz1558

tw4/8 - ladies who like things to be 'nice' in a frilly, feminine sort of way. te6/27, being a table for tea, would fit right into their world.

4:02 am

mrpresident

ah!!! thank you Haz!

4:02 am

mrpresident

tits

4:03 am

Haz1558

pardon?

4:03 am

mrpresident

oh, sorry!! what a follow up!!

4:03 am

FranMag

is anyone else finding the word input very slow?

4:03 am

Haz1558

tw4/8 ladies wouldn't say that word!!!

4:03 am

FranMag

thanks for that te6/27 mrp and haz!

4:04 am

Haz1558

You're welcome FranMag.

4:04 am

mrpresident

4:05 am

FranMag

hi jen!

4:06 am

M3

I must be getting better at this i had 3 7's in a row yeah, i remember seeing 7's at one point and kringing

4:06 am

Haz1558

Do you not use tw4/8 very much? We would use it to describe a style of decorating or dressing - it's very useful!

4:08 am

FranMag

i've seen it in the grids, but didn't know what it meant until now. i've never heard it in a conversation!

4:08 am

Haz1558

Hello Jencatd - sorry to miss you there.

4:08 am

Byzantine

only time I use tw4/8 is to tell the owner what the cat went up

4:08 am

Jencatd

No worries, Haz. ^^

4:09 am

FranMag

cute byz!

4:12 am

ExWren

Morning/evening Haz, Fran, mrp and all. I think 235 are just a few too many for me. 20odd re's, millions of c's - it would become a chore (?) rather than a pleasure

4:12 am

FranMag

hi exwren!

4:12 am

mrpresident

4:14 am

ExWren

Oh yes, I will be calling on you from time to time

4:15 am

mrpresident

4:15 am

ExWren

mrpresident

scv

Haz1558

There's another ac6 that I have - ac6/21 - add plural of what Americans call ca**.

Anyone know what the 8's start with?

6:10 am

cliffopa

its been quite a while since i attempted to complete a grid this large.

6:10 am

Wolvie

I let out a big le sigh that it wasn't 300 words - those can take awhile. :-)

6:11 am

amandacath

Peri - a, c, o for the 8's

6:13 am

periwinkle

thanks amanda, clues please

6:14 am

amandacath

I an8 your question, the horse ca8 - working on the o....

6:14 am

SueMagee

The O has to do with mining.

6:15 am

periwinkle

thanks amanda, Sue will search for the O, thanks

6:15 am

amandacath

Hi Sue! Is that what it means?

6:16 am

amandacath

I have the o8, just trying to think of a clue that won't spell it out

6:16 am

SueMagee

Hi Amanda. Yes - some mining was done this way - on the surface - and other mining was down a shaft.

6:17 am

periwinkle

amanda, I will take the clue that spells out the O :-)

6:17 am

amandacath

oh, is it the same as strip-mining?

6:17 am

Wolvie

ahhh - different than most of us WV folks remember the term. Still works.

6:17 am

periwinkle

what is the second letter of the o8 pease

6:18 am

amandacath

I'm sure you would Peri, but that's no fun! Unshut Samsonite?

6:21 am

Eva

Good morning everyone. So far I'm enjoyng this one. It's feeling like fall this morning. Fastest summer I've ever experienced and I can't figure out if it's because it rained all of June or if it's part of getting older. Time does seem to move more rapidly.

6:22 am

allstar

sorry peri, I just got it myself : 0

hi eva!

hi Fran!

6:22 am

ok, I am over the N hump and onto the J's, (as I work backwards!) so will be looking for clues all too soon!

6:22 am

mrpresident

Hi eva!

6:22 am

cliffopa

you never know about new england weather eva - always keeps us guessing.

6:23 am

Eva

Hi cliff-yes I'm sure we will have plenty of hot weather still, but this morning has that hint of autumn

6:23 am

Eva

hi mrp!

6:23 am

amandacath

anbody have the first set of ep's?

6:23 am

Tiny

you can say that again eva and hi

6:23 am

mrpresident

e + pa4 and plural

6:24 am

Wolvie

boy - don't I wish we had a hint of autumn. A humid 71 here, will be mid 90's at least today.

6:24 am

Eva

I'm about to have more tomatoes than any human being could reasonably want. Why did I plant so many? Does anyone have recipes for salsa that they love?

6:24 am

Eva

hi Tiny

6:25 am

amandacath

Thanks MrP

6:25 am

mrpresident

eva, there is a great recipe place called recipezaar.com... that shall help you much so!

Eva

jits

6:26 am

Eva

sorry!

6:26 am

Wolvie

Eva - one thing I do - freeze tomatoes. I grow about 200 plants every year. Another good recipe place is cook's talk - taunton.com, from fine cooking

6:26 am

periwinkle

Wolvie, just love your icon

6:26 am

Wolvie

hungry monster - haven't seen that one. Will check it out (not eva, I know)

6:27 am

Wolvie

Peri - isn't it cute? It's title is pole dancer. ;-0

6:27 am

Eva

Oh my god wolvie-200 plants!!! You must have a huge freezer. I don't have much freezer space and what I have is already taken up by endless amounts of pesto (also went overboard on the basil)

6:27 am

periwinkle

Wolvie, just adorable

6:27 am

Wolvie

eva - there is no such thing as too much pesto. ;-)

6:28 am

mrpresident

ok, what T can I possibly be missing???

6:28 am

periwinkle

I love pesto, I am growing basil on my balcony

6:28 am

SueMagee

I've got 12 tomato plants and I'm going to be over whelmed in a week or so.

6:28 am

Wolvie

That being said - you could also can - which I do. A pressure cookier makes it less nasty work.

6:28 am

Wolvie

cooker - I wish I could type.

6:28 am

periwinkle

Didn't know you could freeze tomatoes

6:29 am

Eva

I know, I feel the same way....but I'm going to have to start giving it away because of the space problem. I haven't canned anything for about 30 years. I was always afraid of poisoning all my nearest and dearest.

6:29 am

SueMagee

I make a roasted tomato sauce and freeze that. It's marvellous with pasta and makes a good base for casserole dishes.

6:29 am

amandacath

Haven't gotten to the t's yet, MrP...

6:30 am

allstar

if you 2 are having that big a problem you can send them to me : ) I love both and planted none. just too busy this spring

6:30 am

Eva

great idea sue!

6:30 am

musicmom

i'm not babbling but passing through. can pesto be frozen?

6:30 am

Wolvie

peri - I bought a little italian press thingie - it takes out the se**s, and removes the peel - leaving just the pulp. Or you can freeze them whole - they are only good for sauces and such, but it works really well.

6:30 am

FranMag

definitely MM.

6:30 am

musicmom

Ugh even if I'm not playing i need to get that stupid liver out of my icon

6:31 am

musicmom

Thanks Fran. I have basil a friend gave me and I thought about making some.

6:31 am

periwinkle

thanks for the tip Wolvie

6:31 am

FranMag

lol musicmom, i don't mind!

6:31 am

mrpresident

what is icon today?? (too bloody lazy to look it up, sorry!)

6:31 am

Wolvie

mm - you can put bits in an ice tray, pot out what you need

6:31 am

musicmom

Disgusting!

6:31 am

periwinkle

Sue, roasted tomatoe sauce sounds yummy

6:31 am

musicmom

Wolvie - that is a great idea! Thanks.

6:31 am

FranMag

today is vacations, where you like to vacation.

6:32 am

Eva

pesto freezes beautifully and will last for years. A friend of mine deals with the space problem by making up the pesto with just the basil, oil and nuts-leaving out the cheese. She puts the mixture into ice cube trays. That way when she wants pesto she just takes out as many cubes as she needs and adds the parmesan then

6:32 am

FranMag

that's a common tip i always see too, the ice tray thing.

6:32 am

mrpresident

ah! will go hunting for vacation spots!

6:32 am

Wolvie

I have a sort or newbie question - who sets the theme for the day, and where do I find it?

6:32 am

musicmom

I love this chatbox - it is a wealth of information. thanks all. I have to hit the yoga mat. May be back later to play.

6:32 am

Wolvie

Eva - that's the best way I know.

6:32 am

Have a great day everyone.

any clues for je5/30 please?

7:13 am

Daisy Eric

je5/30 - first three letters, religious person; last two letters, make it past tense.

7:14 am

hydra

Many thanks Daisy Eric. Would never have found that!

7:14 am

Jacula

je5/30 - obsolete (offensive) term for haggling or bargaining to get the price down.

7:14 am

Daisy Eric

(psst, hydra, it's me, Babbler!) ; )

7:14 am

Daisy Eric

I'm doing my 30 min challenge. I'm only 5 mins in...

7:14 am

Jacula

Babbler - Why are you disguised today?

7:15 am

Dorens

i am surprised to see the je5 in the grid... as jac says, it is offensive.

7:15 am

Daisy Eric

not disguised, Jac, just created a new non-Pro account so I can part play a puzzle. If I did that as 'Babbler', I'd deffo slip off the rankings page asap!

7:16 am

Jacula

Good idea, Babbler! LOL

7:16 am

Daisy Eric

I put my new id in my profile over there and I've been introducing myself.

7:16 am

hydra

Good idea, babbler. I often play part of one and I'm way down the list, having started near the top! All because I got to 25 words one day and a visitor arrived!

7:16 am

Daisy Eric

wasn't my idea, I have to say, it was another player, Ache, who got me thinking.

7:17 am

Wolvie

ahhh - that is a good idea - a lot of times I can't get back to the puzzle.

7:17 am

Jacula

Oh Lord! Looks like the membership is about to double! LOL.

I can't play entire grids cos of my RSI and stuff, and I do miss it. So I'm gonna play 30 min challenges - see how many I get in 30 mins. ; )

Sorry to hear of the RSI, babbler. Have you tried arnica gel? It works on my arthritis and damaged ligament. Takes the pain away for a good 24 hours, sometimes more.

I can still see the stats as I only created this account a few days ago. I'm looking forward to no stats - then it will be like the old days!

7:20 am

Daisy Eric

hydra - I have fibromyalgia, so the RSI I have is a complicated beastie! I think I've tried arnica as a tablet, not a get. I've heard good things about it.

7:20 am

Jacula

Right, I've put all the obvious words in and that's left me with 102 to find. I'm off to do some work now. I shall look at the grid more seriously later. Babbler, sorry about your RSI. I can see why the 30 minute challenges are a good idea for you. Glad you'll still be here to play.x

7:20 am

Daisy Eric

right now, I'm cooking with a lot of turmeric (nature's pain killer). I found that makes a difference.

7:21 am

Daisy Eric

thanks Jac : ) (remember when I had pains going up to my face after a really big grid and you were helping me?)

Enjoy your afternoon and see you later : )

7:48 am

Babbler

yep, (just remembered the password for that one, lol!)

7:55 am

Jeanne

As to Je***, the dictionary doesn't make value judgements. A word is a word. Another word with a similarly objectionable root is 'gypped' but I suppose we don't think about its origin anymore.

8:02 am

Dorens

yes jeanne you're right, of course...it just surprises me to see it

8:02 am

Woohoo!

10:31 am

Jacula

Out in the West Texas town of El Paso
I fell in love with a Mexican girl.
Night-time would find me in Rosa's cantina;
Music would play and Felina would whirl.

Blacker than night were the eyes of Felina,
Wicked and evil while casting a spell.
My love was deep for this Mexican maiden;
I was in love but in vain, I could tell.

One night a wild young cowboy came in,
Wild as the West Texas wind.
Dashing and daring,
A drink he was sharing
With wicked Felina,
The girl that I loved.

3:08 pm

FranMag

hi krista!

3:08 pm

Miyavi_fan

ooh! fell behind and was just reading the post about the priest yelling...that made me smile. That's like God coming down from heaven and saying "stop taking my name in vain, Goddammit!"
heh. I had the strangest dream with God in a few nights ago.

3:08 pm

chj

we were doing 3 weeks and rented a car for the first week in tuscany...pisa, san gimi, siena, assisi, orvieto, pompeii and amalfi coast..the rest, rome, florwnce, venice and milan by train

3:09 pm

nrkii

I once went to midnight mass on Christmas Eve and the priest yelled at everyone at the end of mass to not bang down the kneelers, saying "for the sake of the Christ child..." which I thought a really poor reason to yell or to invoke the Christ child

ch1212

WOW Miyavi, what great imagery with the milk -- we could really get into the symbolism of what milk represents in terms of the feminine -- interesting...

3:13 pm

Krista

In fact, I am not Babbling today. Too late to start. Just thought I'd pop in and say hi. Needed something to lighten my mood after that Dr. Phil episode (child abuse).

nrkii

ROFL, but going to hell for it

3:16 pm

hetty

Qll the travel talk about Italia is making me homesick for it. Three times now we have lingered inits beautiful toe=wns--preferring Umbria to Tuscany, actually, and deploring what has become of San Gimignano in more recent years. On eof our graddaughters chose to get married in Siena two summers ago, and booked a couple of villa estates in the wine country for her family and guests. A totally unforgettable week of romance and delight

3:17 pm

ch1212

I know, nrkii -- it was off the top of my head in terms of symbolism. That's why I said wow, we could have a discussion around that -- half in jest!

3:17 pm

Miyavi_fan

ah see Krista, you've just unlocked the secret of my extistence.

3:17 pm

Miyavi_fan

and, you know, that symbol is milk.

3:17 pm

Krista

Not being disrespectful...I think He has a sense of humor. I dolove the symbolism, seriously.

3:17 pm

Miyavi_fan

Ch said a wooooord~ XDDD

3:18 pm

ch1212

Ooops? OOOPS I did! Sorry.

Miss Hetty, my beloved wanted us to be married on a gondola in Venice. He settled for renewing our vows on one instead :)

3:18 pm

Krista

I'm glad I could do that for you, Miyavi. :)

3:18 pm

Miyavi_fan

I think S/He must have a sense of humour: look at George Bush. However in the bible God always seems vengeful. Once again, probably to do with Bush.

3:18 pm

4:46 pm

Jacula

Hi Judi.

4:47 pm

Haz1558

If that ever happened - is it mathematically possible? - I reckon there would be a fine number of excuses as to why people weren't able to attempt it. Unprecedented numbers of weddings and hastily arranged holidays.

4:47 pm

bonkler

blamed is the new owned

4:47 pm

Haz1558

Hello Judi.

4:48 pm

chj

what about a 25 letter word

4:48 pm

sherb

hi Judi :)

4:49 pm

snowyowl

lol - other than that Haz - there would be an increase in sickies! There wouldn't be time to work!

4:49 pm

Hi there

If you play on http://weboggle.shackworks.com for long you'll see many 5X5 grids with 1-2,000 words.

4:49 pm

torgone

Hi Judi. You just missed it. Haz was wishing for a 500 word grid . . .

4:49 pm

torgone

I'm an imp . . .

4:50 pm

Jacula

Hithere - I do play on Weboggle, usually on the 4x4 grids, though. I think people use cheat programs though.:(

4:50 pm

Jacula

Snowy - that's the more likely scenario, if I know hardened Babblers.:)

4:51 pm

sherb

and a floyd fan to boot!!

4:51 pm

snowyowl

& I've have the sparkliest computer room in the country! ( It's my usual excuse for being in here so much)

4:51 pm

torgone

weboggle allows 3 letter words, too ..

4:51 pm

sherb

bookmarks yet another puzzle site...

4:52 pm

puptone

Not me - I'm still sane "she thinks"

4:54 pm

Jacula

'Sane'? Are sane people allowed in here??

4:55 pm

snowyowl

I do not have enough life left to attempt another word game -this one has taken up the tiny amount that being a grandparent & Girlguiding leave me!

4:56 pm

sherb

weboggle looks good... games are short...

4:56 pm

snowyowl

Well I'm not sure I've ever seen any Jacula -tho things are not quite as crazy here as they were before Christmas1

Hello Judi! How are you doing? Welcome to the puzzle!

4:59 pm

Minveryork

4:59 pm

Minveryork

I play Scrabble Blast.Krista got me hooked on that one

4:59 pm

WARNING
When I am an old woman I shall wear purple
With a red hat which doesn't go and doesn't suit me.
And I shall spend my pension on brandy and summer gloves
And satin sandals, and say we've no money for butter.
I shall sit down on the pavement when I'm tired
And gobble up samples in shops and press alarm bells
And run my stick along the public railings
And make up for the sobriety of my youth.
I shall go out in my slippers in the rain
And pick the flowers in other people's gardens . . .

Beautiful Woman -
Age 3: She looks at herself and sees a Queen.
Age 8: She looks at herself and sees Cinderella.
Age 15: She looks at herself and sees an Ugly Sister (Mum I can't go to school looking like this!)
Age 20: She looks at herself and sees 'too fat/too thin, too short/too tall, too straight/too curly'- but decides she's going out anyway.
Age 30: She looks at herself and sees 'too fat/too thin, too short/too tall, too straight/too curly' -- but decides she doesn't have time to fix it, so she's going out anyway.
Age 40: She looks at herself and sees 'clean' and goes out anyway.
Age 50: She looks at herself and sees 'I am' and goes wherever she wants to go.
Age 60: She looks at herself and reminds herself of all the people who can't even see themselves in the mirror anymore. Goes out and conquers the world.
Age 70: She looks at herself and sees wisdom, laughter and ability, goes out and enjoys life.
Age 80: Doesn't bother to look. Just puts on a purple hat and goes out to have fun with the world.

Maybe we should all grab that purple hat earlier.
