Buggie

Hello, I was just wondering. When people say they list, do they mean going to lickety, or actually going to the list of words (say the list of all the 6 letter words in the dictionary)

7:41 am

Trifioso

When I say it I mean Lickety, buggie

7:42 am

car.eeyore

Lickety

7:42 am

dan2bit

same as Trif for me - sometimes people say "found it on morewords" which is different

7:42 am

Buggie

okay, wasn't sure. Always thought it meant Lickety, but then it would have been great for my self confidence if everyone was using the word lists ;-)

7:44 am

Trifioso

car, does the qu tile play a role at all today?

7:44 am

car.eeyore

Only for the 3 Qu words

11:47 am

MollyL

Clues used to be for the really difficult words. The whole idea of what gets clued has changed. And how they are clued. Such is life.

11:47 am

rururocks

Some 4's I guess are worth cluing like Isba or something like that.. but not common words

8:33 pm

jesdraggon

not too bad, though I can think of better ways to wake from a nap than being called about a cat some *kind* soul left in a cage on the doorstep at work.

8:40 pm

TraderKate

well, though it's not a great wke-up call for sure... the alternative could be a lot worse.. at leaast this one has a chance.

Not that anybody needs one today, but story is in profile.

8:43 pm

TraderKate

8:45 pm

jesdraggon

yeah, and the one good thing about abandoned animals is I can treat them without having to negotiate owner permission and finances.

8:45 pm

jesdraggon

hi minver :)

8:46 pm

TraderKate

nice to have that wiggle room jes.. do you also run an unofficial adoption agency from time to time? (my old vet did)

8:47 pm

Minveryork

Hello jesdraggon!How are you doing?Welcome to the grid

8:48 pm

TraderKate

is mystery kitty pretty much okay?

8:50 pm

jesdraggon

I run a non-profit rescue on the side; patch up wildlife orphans and injured pets and adopt them out. Surprisingly the last couple of years have been completely funded by donations so I've not had a lot of out-of-pocket on it, which is not what I expected when I started it

8:50 pm

jesdraggon

Initially I got the non-profit certification because I was spending a couple thousand dollars a year of my own money doing it and wanted to be able to write that off on my taxes.

8:51 pm

TraderKate

I've read about the wildlife often enough.. but wasn't sure what happens with the domestics..

8:51 pm

jesdraggon

I just put a picture of kitty in my profile

8:53 pm

TraderKate

poor thing... was that taken after your ministrations.. or had it prhaps seen another vet, and owner couldn't affore further treatment?

8:54 pm

TraderKate

so antibiotics, deflea/mite/worm, and wound care, stitches?

8:54 pm

jesdraggon

just shaved the mat off the sore.

8:55 pm

jesdraggon

antibiotics and flea treatment today, will worry about vaccines and spay when she's had a few days of getting over it.

8:56 pm

TraderKate

yes, shouldn't traumatize her too much... looks like she's been through the wringer already

8:57 pm

TraderKate

i guess Lurker Jill has left the building... too bad. I was hoping she'd stay and introduce herself...

8:57 pm
