1:29 am

heck, the puzzle really IS appendage-less.
1:30 am
ARB
That word was a couple or more grids ago and of course was one of mt phantoms, so it was stuck in my mind.
1:30 am
sprite
the grid is what the fo8 is not
1:30 am
FranMag
now if only someone had the last 8, we'd all be happy campers
1:30 am

still working on the do, Fran. Any pointers, perhaps, please?
1:31 am
FranMag
brb, toothbrushing time for the kids
1:31 am
Ornith
sprite, it's pl for a "stupid" do6
1:31 am
FranMag
sprite, perhaps it's too american, do6 means dummy or nerdy one
1:32 am
ARB
Sprite, it's a slang term for a stupid person, and then pluralled go down the grid to the highest scoring letter
1:32 am
VolleymomDee
I honestly thought the do 6 was spelled with a single other vowel rather than a double one (if that makes sense)
1:32 am
VolleymomDee
maybe this is a British spelling
1:32 am
FranMag
a fo**ish or inept person is the definition
1:32 am
VolleymomDee
interesting ty Fran
1:32 am

oops just saw that sprite already found it... sorry
1:52 am

argh - I must have mistyped about 3 times. I withdraw my last remark, it has a singular and I am just being stupid.

1:55 am
sprite
LOL! Mistyping is not, but mistyping a couple of times in a row and then posting in the log that the word does not exist... is at least a tiny bit stupid.
1:55 am
ARB
careless, perhaps, but not stupid
1:56 am
dave70la
helen...that was supposed to say night...I need to go to bed too...cannot type anymore
1:56 am

1:58 am

hillary: er5/12 to eat away or eat into. Change first vowel. Then add first 2 (for the 7) or 3 (for the 8) letters of 'not more but ****'

3:10 am
iesha
can anyone please clue me the do 6
3:11 am
ARB
it's an American slang term for a foolish/stupid person. Uses the high scoring letter at the bottom
3:11 am
sprite
that was clued to me perfectly:
first part = nourishment, backwards; last part is 'you and me'
Plural for the 8.
3:12 am
sprite
awwww iesha, what a sweet dragon!
3:14 am
sprite
ARB, I thought I found another hebrew word, So5/12. But it has another def. Does the word for worry/trouble always start Ts?
3:15 am
ARB
yes -- the Hebrew letter is a ts sound -- when we were in Russia last year, we found that the cyrillic alphabet includes that letter and it has the same sound and is written the same way, much like a 3.
3:19 am
sprite
thank you :)
We have a lot of words in dutch that are derived from hebrew. So5/10 is one of them and it means troubles, worry, problems. But now I know that we lost that Ts sound at the beginning!
3:23 am
hillary
can anyone help with the second fo6/30?
3:23 am
sprite
Not sure if it is the 2nd, but I have fo + act again
3:23 am

7:43 am
Wolvie

Wolvie

7:44 am
ConXshun

7:44 am
Merk
So then what is the do 8, a plural? I am flummoxed.
7:44 am
Scrabbler
Une--I see that you donate platelets--good for you! I used to do that, then had some surgeries and then life got busy...I should do it again
7:44 am
sprite
Wolvie: Ur + long lyric poem + first 3 letters of 'not more but ****'
7:45 am
Uneaixoise
and they're relentless, scrabbler--they start calling again just a few days after each donation! LOL
7:45 am
Scrabbler
Merk---add "es"
7:45 am
sprite
flummoxed... could that be ro7?
7:45 am
Wolvie

7:45 am
Scrabbler
You can go every 2 wks, right, Une?

11:40 am

11:40 am
cybernan
I have about another year as well -- so tired of having a mouth full of hardware!
11:41 am
evanonut
wonder what kind of nutrition that supplies
11:42 am
stidmama
no doubt -- occasionally we go ahead and let stidmatt break the rules... but mostly we try to keep him to foods that are approved. Unlike my allergies, the only thing that will happen is an extra trip to the dentist
11:43 am
stidmama
Nut: lots and lots of calcium, trace minerals and a lifetime supply of glaze.
11:43 am
evanonut
glaze would be good for those titanium teefers of yours, make em nice and shiney
11:43 am

I have the plastic brackets, so have to be extra careful. At least the teeth have lined up enought that I can chew properly for the first time that I can remember -- that's a plus!

Googling produces this: Finnan Haddie. There are references to smoked fish in Scotland going back to the 16th century. James Boswell wrote about them in the 18th century, ... but Enable or Morewords doesn't want to know...yet includes all sorts of obscure Scot words, not to mention those ofother languages. Grrrr

Anniebrook
Temple, I love struffoli....there are some great bakeries in Bensonhurst and that is where I get them
9:49 pm
72 Temple Owl
and for easter pie which iis like kugel
9:49 pm
lbdawger

9:49 pm
72 Temple Owl
annie, there are none like my uncle guido's...i do know the one trick that made them so good, i asked him to write the recipoe again later but he left many things out - getting too old
9:49 pm
renfield
i love kugel
9:50 pm
72 Temple Owl
so di i althogh i have only had the sweet kind
9:51 pm
Anniebrook
I dont like easter pie but my husband loved it. his sister made it every easter for her four brothers. that is my second husband (rest his soul) he was the love of my life. I made kugel
9:52 pm
renfield
what is easter pie?
9:52 pm
72 Temple Owl
dawg, sstrufffoli - ot struel in dialect - are community cookies. they are like ptretzel nueggets shaped and are stuck tpoether in a pyramid with honey. you just take one off of the pyramid, they are decorated with colored nonpareills
9:53 pm
Anniebrook
like little honey balls
9:53 pm
renfield
hmmmmmmmmmmmm
9:53 pm
72 Temple Owl
i mean sweet easter pie, not the haam bread....easter pie is like kigel using spaghetti and ricottta
9:53 pm
72 Temple Owl
exactly, annie - they are ofetn called that
9:54 pm
renfield
i like spaghetti and ricotta
9:54 pm
Anniebrook
it is sausage and hard boiled eggs baked in a custard and put into a crust. that is the way my sister in law makes it. I think ham is in it also
9:54 pm
72 Temple Owl
i do not like the pie or bread made with tons of meat and eggs and cheese
9:55 pm
72 Temple Owl
but i have an aversion to hard boiled eggs
9:55 pm
Anniebrook
Temple, so we agree on the meat easter pie. the one you mentioned with ricotta I would probably like
9:55 pm
lbdawger
just looked both of those up. the struffoli sound good but wow, a lot of time to make them! not so sure about the easter pie tho...sounds awfully heavy.
9:56 pm
Anniebrook
dawg, it weighs a ton.
9:56 pm
72 Temple Owl

Small hospital in Pinetown - surgeon there is only one in this area doing new type
11:34 pm

11:35 pm
jillibus
ca7/32 was clued cutely earlier by someone -- "I dropped my violin ca** so my mother bopped me on the n***"
11:35 pm
helenkeller
ok, i see that's in your icon, but i wasn't sure that's where your mom was at - but it will make a world of difference & her recovery time will be really, really quick!
11:35 pm
helenkeller
thx anyone cath
11:35 pm
Cathyar
tks jlli!
11:36 pm
helenkeller
noggin?
11:36 pm
helenkeller
oops & nm
11:36 pm
helenkeller
& ty!
11:36 pm
ursh
We hope so helen - awful to see her struggling at the moment - she will be 87 in June - but a very active and healthy lady - still drives does housework - shopping etc - so fingers crossed it goes well
11:38 pm
helenkeller
ursh - the only thing (& i stress ' only') thing i would worry a little about is bruising, i had right hip replaced & after surgery, my left side was bruised - they tell you this in advance because they kinda 'jam' it in there, so they have to apply pressure, but other than that it's for sure the best way to go
11:41 pm
ursh
Thank you helen - will tell her - also right hip to be replaced - seems left hip still ok but she is now getting to the stage of saying she cant wait to get it done - pain is really bad
11:41 pm
helenkeller
that's great then - did they tell her how long to expect to stay in the hospital?
11:42 pm
ursh
about 5 days - then no driving for 5-6 weeks
11:42 pm
jillibus
lo5/16 after the spongy one?
11:43 pm
ursh
same word jilli - just plural lo4/7
11:43 pm
helenkeller
hmmm - surprising - i will still finish what i started writing & send it to you - i was out the next day, maybe cause of her age they want to keep her longer
11:43 pm
jillibus
thx, got it
11:44 pm
ursh
yes time in hospital cos of age
11:45 pm
helenkeller
ok, then good, they will start doing the pt there, if she's still so active, she'll probably surprise them!
11:45 pm
Cathyar
i can't even see the lo4/7! :(
11:45 pm
helenkeller

11:45 pm
