argh, so terrible, having to dissect animals at school... or anywhere.

12:53 am
tazpink
isnt the cloaca the outer part of reptilian sexual organs?
12:53 am
helenkeller
i can see the importance of that if you are going to specialize in medicine - human or vet, otherwise, simple plastic forms would be much better
12:54 am

a. the common cavity into which the intestinal, urinary, and generative canals open in birds, reptiles, amphibians, many fishes, and certain mammals.

taz, I can imagine. I am with helen for doctors, especially those that have to cut people later on, but otherwise, why not respect animals a little more?
12:57 am

3:29 am

Hey marso
Better grid today :)
3:30 am
Haz1558
It's like the gathering of the clans! Morning FMitch, marso, jonny etc.
3:33 am
FMitch
I was commenting earlier on the lack of any e's or s today but I am glad, otherwise it would be a huge grid rather than a mangeable one.
3:35 am
Haz1558
Yes, those mangeable ones bring me out in a rash!
3:35 am
Atalante
sounds unpleasant!
3:35 am
FMitch
How did you get on yesterday, did you finish?
3:36 am
Haz1558
Yes, it turned out to be not as bad as I feared. I did it in Lickety's and then transferred it over. It has the advantage of focusing the mind!
3:37 am
FMitch
Oh well done :)
3:37 am
Haz1558
It's what I should have done on Sunday past!
3:38 am
FMitch
lol would have saved a few grey hairs!
3:38 am
Haz1558
And things thrown at the screen!
3:39 am
Haz1558
Going to fetch an icon....
3:41 am
FMitch
Got to go for a little while, back soon.
3:45 am
Atalante
hopefully one day spaniel will be in the grid then we can keep our Spangle and Hobbit pics!
3:46 am
Haz1558
That would be fun! However, I'm changed now, for better or worse.
3:49 am
Atalante
I'm trying to decide what to change to
3:50 am
Haz1558
There are quite a few to choose from!
3:51 am
Atalante
being picky!
3:51 am
Haz1558
I know - it's getting one that isn't too obvious, but fun at the same time.
3:52 am
Haz1558
I had thought of doing Steve Cr4/6 but it would be lost on the Americans!
3:53 am
Haz1558
And would Imran Kh4/9 be equally unrecognisable?
3:54 am
Atalante
but I like the idea of Imran Kh** more!
3:55 am
Haz1558
Someting to do with skin......
3:55 am
jonny
thankz for the words Haz
3:56 am
Haz1558
jonny - you're welcome - change round Imran to get an Egyptian thing an4/9.
3:56 am
Atalante
I had to choose the singular of the word as the plural is a very well-known tennis player
3:57 am
Haz1558
Singular tennis player......
3:58 am
Atalante
co5/12 and I'm sorry but I had to change to Imran ...
3:59 am
Haz1558
Hello FranMag!
3:59 am
Atalante
hi fran!
3:59 am
FranMag
you're right haz, your first choice would have been lost on us Americans! at least lost on me! :-)
3:59 am
FranMag
hi jonny, haz and ata!
3:59 am
Atalante
today is educate Americans about Imran Kh** day LOL
3:59 am
FranMag
just got here, but wanted to get my icon up before i said hi!
4:00 am
Haz1558
I think the females will be glad to be educated about Imran!
4:00 am
FranMag
i'm still seeing your skin icon ata, but i can't wait for it to update now
4:01 am
Atalante
come on Imran!
4:02 am
FranMag
ooh, i just found fi4/11 and the perfect icon would be the king from the wizard of id comic strip.
4:04 am
Atalante
hey rolin's in the grid!
4:05 am
Atalante
and rolin is one letter away from a 5/12 fishy. proper swimming in the sea fishy
4:05 am
Haz1558
And so is Mr Powell (not Enoch)
4:08 am
FranMag
not that it matters since i started already, but how's the grid so far?
4:08 am
Haz1558
I think it's fun. There aren't many sequences going but there are some good words.
4:09 am
Atalante
slow, but ok and don't tell me ok is in the grid, Haz! *grins*
4:09 am
Haz1558
And the saving grace is that it's not a huge total.
4:09 am
Haz1558
We'll let you off this time!
4:10 am
FranMag
ata, are you typing words in the chat again? :-)
4:10 am
Haz1558
Fran - are you seeing Imran yet?
4:11 am
Atalante
only 2 letter ones!
4:11 am
FranMag
no, let me trying clearing my cache. the problem is AOL doesn't update its server caches that often. brb
4:12 am
Haz1558
You'll find him worth clearing out your cache...
4:13 am
Atalante
definitely
4:15 am
FranMag
okay, clearing the caches didn't work, but i did an image search of my own. a very good-looking man!
4:15 am
Angb
Oh ata - that icon makes me feel all ca 6/21.
4:16 am
Haz1558
I'm hoping that nobody finds an icon to illustrate ca6/21 or we'll be taken off the air.....
4:16 am
Angb
Hi fran - nice food icon - no idea what it is - custard isn't it?
4:17 am
Atalante
pretty, isn't he!
4:17 am
FranMag
yes, but it goes by it's spanish/filipino name in the grid.
4:18 am
FranMag
i wouldn't kick him out of bed for eating crackers.
4:18 am
Angb
Did anyone see the cricket match in NZ where he took his shirt off on the field. My cricketing highlight of all time!
4:19 am
Angb
I'm getting all hot and bothered just thinking about it.
4:19 am
FranMag
ah, so he's a cricket player, must be why i've never seen him before.
4:19 am
Atalante
LOL his biography was definitely the best cricketing book ever!
4:19 am
Angb
As long as it has plenty of pictures I might "read" it Ata
4:20 am
Atalante
LOTS of pics!
4:20 am
Angb
Yummy! Forget the spanish custard!
4:20 am
Angb
Better get back to the grid - getting too excited.
4:20 am
Atalante
am watching NZ cricket right at this moment, Angb
4:21 am
FranMag
angb, the spanish custard is fl4/7, that should bring you back down to earth.
4:22 am
Angb
My dad said it was on - we beat South Africa. Wierd!!!! They are playing Sri Lanka aren't they? Hate NH games - never see them during the night.
4:22 am
Atalante
Imran and custard ... that does *not* bring one back to earth!
4:22 am
Angb
And someone beat Aussie. Yippee.
4:22 am
Atalante
Sri Lanka yes. They've just started batting. NZ I mean. Lovely Stephen Fleming is out there
4:23 am
Haz1558
Back in a bit.
4:24 am
Angb
Now he's not bad ... we have got the odd good looker on our team.
4:24 am
Angb
see ya soon haz
4:24 am
Atalante
Fleming's out. pah. Adam Parore was good looking. But I do have a soft spot for Stephen Fleming for some reason!
4:26 am
Angb
For a bit of ca 6/21 viewing I like rugby. Heavily into watching scrums. Fleming's out ... typical. One good knock and he's done his dash for the season. Fleming is the archetypal cricketer. Very polite, very staid and sometimes plays well.
4:26 am
Atalante
lol yes very true! But he's cute as well, which is *not* archetypal cricketer :P
4:28 am
Angb
Ata have you a clue for the 2nd ca 6/21. Can't get past the first!
4:30 am
Atalante
just monkeyed it for you! christmas song + vowel
4:31 am
Angb
Thought I had tried all of those. You better take imran off - affecting my concentration.
4:31 am
FranMag
thanks ata! changed my icon.
4:31 am
Atalante

Geez fran just got the spanish custard. I thought that word was a fruit pie!
4:35 am
FranMag
see angb, you learn something new every day here!
4:36 am
Angb
I know ... may inspire me. Seeing that life is quieting down a bit I thought I might bake. It's a "see kids you have a mother" thing. Won't last for long though.
4:36 am
FranMag
funny ang!
4:37 am
Angb
Real though - I usually only bake in February, at the start of the work year.
4:37 am
FMitch
thanks for yr icon clue Fran, got that and added another letter to the end for a f5
4:39 am
FranMag
yw fmitch, i got confused because i just changed my icon to another f4 that can't be extended as far as i can tell.
4:40 am
FMitch
lol just realised that the f5 is Angb's icon.
4:40 am
Angb
A bit obscure isn't it!

That's the fun of the search.

5:57 am
ch1212
Andree as soon as I typed that in I realized again that everyone goes at their own pace, and some folks may have 150 in 15 minutes and some folks may have 25 in 15 minutes ... :)
5:58 am
kthdsn
ch I'm lucky to get 25 in 15 minutes lol
5:58 am
ch1212
jean, on Fridays many of us use our icons as a clue to a word in the grid. So for example, I picked my icon today to be a clue for the ac5/12.
5:59 am
Andree
I have been coming back all afternoon to get a few words in, babysitting mr 3 and miss 5 months for weekend, finding it a very hard grid
5:59 am
ch1212
And for the first several months I babbled, I strugged mightily every day. Now it's a lot easier for about the first 60-70% of the grid, then comes the struggle. People like Sprite and Haz just sail through!
6:00 am
Andree
la4/9 please
6:01 am
ch1212
Today will definitely be a day when I break out the grid early!
Andree -- uses the big scoring letter
6:01 am
jean1953
It would confuse me ch1212 it took me long enough to load the first icon rofl
6:01 am
ch1212
la4/9 - la + 2 different consonants
6:02 am

7:11 am
Jacula
I would never travel with my cats in a car. The only car journeys they do are to the vet's and they always poo themselves.
7:12 am
P.J.
The only other thing you can do is put a small litter box in with them and the litter that clumps up so you won't have a mess......LoL
7:12 am
gramma
ARB, we turn it off and on. We live in a very old house. It's nice and cool in the summer and nice and cold Sept to May

7:12 am

7:12 am
spanner
Ata, cant believe that Jemima prefers Hugh Grant LOL
7:13 am

7:14 am
Andree
Al, when my mother moved 30 years ago and could not keep her cat, she put her in my car for me to take home, cat sprayed sh** all over, attacked me while I was driving and when I opened the door took off and was never seen again
7:14 am

7:14 am

Mad and scarily thin

Avoid alliteration. Always.

Avoid trendy locutions that sound flaky.
7:45 am

Perfect icon clue for you today A***orite
7:46 am

As often as your clue comes up, An**, that should almost be your permanent icon.
7:47 am
licketySplitAUS
o needs rhetorical questions?
7:47 am
Ankhorite
Heh! I did it out of admiration for Scrabbler's icon.
7:47 am
licketySplitAUS
Who needs rhetorical questions?
7:47 am
Ankhorite
I'm glad y'all like it, thanks much, FMitch, Pida, Abe!
7:47 am
licketySplitAUS
The adverb always follows the verb.
7:48 am
licketySplitAUS
Remember to never split an infinitive.
7:48 am
Ankhorite
I tried another version, with a big capital a and a little an** in the point position, instead of the analemma.
7:48 am

Dear One's sister's daughters have double-cons in their nicknames -- Gabby, Livvy -- but she didn't double-con the full name. One of his colleagues' wives substituted "i" for "y" so her second child's name would sort of tie to the first -- Benjamyn, following Ryan.
7:58 am

Ankhorite - I am embarressed for such a horrible inunendo - and I complete apologise - I did not mean to say that - if was un called for - and I hope you accept this apology cause I really was STUPID!

autumn et al, re donating to women's shelter, they also ALWAYS need toiletries--either purchased or travel size items from hotels. I have a friend in Louisiana who picks up donated small soaps from local hotels on a regular basis. Also, here in Nashville, I've taken items like this to a halfway house for women just released from jail/prison.
