1:43 am

sprite

hehehe mel, spoken like a true babble addict :D

1:43 am

Lizlin

Are you working this weekend or having some "me" time?

1:44 am

sprite

lots of me time, I hope. No work planned. Just the normal domestic tasks.

1:44 am

meliae

I have mad methods to babbling, first I start in upper left corner and go tile by tile, I do my best to get at least one word per tile, then check for all stats.

1:44 am

dcseain

We have about 35cm of snow, and it's coming down heavy, and supposed to for the next roughly 18 hours. Gusty winds. It's a fluffy, wet snow. I live near Washington, DC.

1:44 am

dcseain

hey, yall! Hi, liz , mel, sprite

1:44 am

Lizlin

Yuck, DC. That sounds horrible.

1:45 am

sprite

lol, whatever brings you the most fun, mel :)

1:45 am

sprite

hi seain

1:45 am

dcseain

it was almost knee-deep when i went for a short walk about 10PM local time (9 PM Grid Time)

1:45 am

dcseain

i try for NBT first, too Mel. NBS if i can.

1:46 am

meliae

Next I count how many 0/0 tiles and subtract that amount from 25, divide that number by 2. Which tonight is an odd number so I round up. I cannot list until I have that many grey tiles lol if I dont get them I cannot list.

1:46 am

dcseain

blizzard and white-out conditions, Liz -- it's an adventure like we had in 2010.

1:47 am

dcseain

nice, mel :)

1:47 am

meliae

Wow Dc craziness

1:47 am

sprite

wow mel! Disciplined! I am always all over the board. Only when I get totally stuck, I try and go tile by tile.

1:48 am

grannyrose

{{hugs}} and good morning my dearest sprite.

1:48 am

dcseain

weirdly, our subway and buses all shut down for Saturday and Sunday. All three airports are currently closed, too.

1:48 am

Lizlin

Humidity here and thunder rumbling! No rain though. Storms often split around where we live. We could do with rain.

1:48 am

sprite

*hugs rose* Hello dear friend, a very good evening to you. How was your day?

1:48 am

grannyrose

cooee seain, mel, lizgirl

1:49 am

meliae

Well I was getting lazy and just listing which takes the fun out of finding words so I started making it harder and harder over the years lol

1:49 am

Lizlin

Hugs, Rose

1:49 am

dcseain

g'day, rose, nice to see you.

1:49 am

sprite

I hardly ever list. Guess that is hard enough for me, lol.

1:50 am

grannyrose

not too bad. have been and looked at a different for my family christmas celebration. showered, dressed. three loads of washing. now sitting quietly waiting for your arrival... lolll

1:50 am

meliae

Hello Rose ((hugs))

1:50 am

dcseain

i list at halfway or less than 50, depending on how badly i decide i want to finish a grid.

1:51 am

sprite

*grins* I feel honored. Do you try a different location every year or didn't the last one work out?

1:51 am

grannyrose

i list once i have been through the grid ti4 by ti4. i try to find at least 50% from each ti4.

1:51 am

meliae

If its a big one I cheat and list sometimes just to finish, but my goal is just to find as many as I can without it.

1:51 am

dcseain

phantom luthier

1:51 am

grannyrose

last one was again to windy.

1:52 am

dcseain

1:52 am

Lizlin

I list when I'm totally stuck and over half way.

1:52 am

dcseain

oops

1:52 am

sprite

yeah that is when I list too. With huge grids for the last few. When you feel like you have tried everything possible at least twice :)

1:52 am

Lizlin

LOL - with 58 left, I didn't have that :) Thanks.

1:53 am

grannyrose

i am pleased to say i am usually within 30-40 with big grids, and about 5 with the itty bitty on4.

1:53 am

meliae

Ho 7 was a monkey and I guess I was shocked it took lol

1:53 am

grannyrose

under 200 i usually get to about 20 to go.

1:54 am

grannyrose

i list, but only consult the 'dictionary' if i am unable to 'see' the word i am missing.

2:02 am

grannyrose

omg... i killed the chat... roflol

2:03 am

sprite

lol bad rose!

2:04 am

grannyrose

waaahhhh. i didn't mean to do so...

2:04 am

dcseain

i went to investigate noise in the kitchen. The kitten has been hopping up on counter, and destroying a roll of paper towels night. Time to use the in-cabinet hangar again. Upside, not the smaller dog as i'd thought.

2:04 am

dcseain

and i had some apple juice while i was in that room.

2:05 am

grannyrose

*giggle* seain, naughty kitty, good doggie.

2:05 am

2:32 am

hurshy

migraines are not fair.

2:32 am

grannyrose

awww hurshy. you have a migraine? yuck!!

2:33 am

hurshy

yeah, yuck

2:34 am

hurshy

i know they say not to look at screens during migraines, but, it never seems to make a difference with mine one way or the other

2:36 am

grannyrose

could you possibly wear light-tinted sunglasses when you have a migraine?

2:37 am

hurshy

sure, i could do anything - but the only thing that seems to affect them is taking my sumatriptan.

2:37 am

hurshy

i mean, i do definitely put on sunglasses in bright light, whether i have one or not, to prevent or not worsen them

2:40 am

grannyrose

okay. hubby has found an app? which he has on his computer. it is a blue filter. this also helps him to sleep easier.

2:41 am

hurshy

nice

2:42 am

hurshy, i hope your migraine disappears really soon honey. dinner ready, so i need to go. xoxox

Good morning all.

6:06 am

lbdawger

good morning, everyone!

6:06 am

sukee

Hello, there is life :)

6:07 am

lbdawger

Hiya, Sukee! i think the right coast is snowed in might not have power.

6:07 am

sukee

It missed us :)

6:08 am

lbdawger

that's good! I really haven't been keeping up with the storm, it's suppose to get up into the upper 30's F this weekend. hope not, hate the wet then the ice

6:09 am

sukee

I have an online friend in Cape Cod, they got hit hard last year and I bet they got it again.

6:09 am

MollyL

There is power here so far, but it's still snowing like a son of a bitch

6:11 am

lbdawger

stay safe and warm, Molly

6:11 am

MollyL

Thanks lbd, I see a lot of shoveling in my near future

6:14 am

lbdawger

do it in stages or hire a young person to do it for you. you don't need to risk injury or cardio pulmonary attack

6:21 am

MollyL

Well, I would consider hiring someone, but not too many kids around here are that ambitious. We do it in stages, it's too much to do all at once.

6:35 am

bichon

Out comes the snow blower today. It's been idle up to today

6:38 am

MollyL

I feel free to blame this storm on all the people who were clucking and saying "Oh, we're going to pay for this" when it was 60 degrees in December.

6:38 am

MollyL

Saying those kinds of things just invites bad juju

6:48 am

Anniebrook

hello from snowed in Brooklyn. All I see is snow blowing around and nothing else. Can't see the highway or the school across the street.

6:49 am

lbdawger

morning, annie and bichon. stay safe and warm. hope the powers that be keep the piles of snow under control.

7:05 am

lbdawger

7:05 am

Uneaixoise

you have my profound sympathy -- I had that back in December -- awful :-(

7:06 am

zoozzoom

I tried sleep but I kept coughing too much with the runny nose. So have only had about three hours on and off lol

7:06 am

zoozzoom

((Une)) thanks :-)

7:06 am

TheByzantine

a running tap is an interesting image too .. can the water keep up?

7:06 am

zoozzoom

I agree to lots of tea though, Dawg!

7:06 am

lbdawger

antihistamines to help dry up that runny nose.

7:07 am

zoozzoom

No water isas quick as my running nose, TheByantine lol

7:07 am

zoozzoom

Oh will they work with a cold, Dawg? Will try that. Many thanks!

7:08 am

lbdawger

yes, antihistamines are what is often times in cold meds.

7:08 am

zoozzoom

Oh hahaha sorry just got that,,tap running faster than the water. sorry brain not working here.

7:09 am

zoozzoom

Cool will go and take a couple.

7:09 am

lbdawger

gaufenacine (sp) is really good stuff, don't need much to stop the water works

7:09 am

MollyL

Une, how did you get man flu? Did you switch teams?

7:10 am

bichon

what is gaufenacine?

7:11 am

lbdawger

The place i work at is an open office...cube farm. the men on both sides of me are sick and they sound terrible! but they know better than to whine, no sympathy in a room filled with women!

7:11 am

lbdawger

it's an antihistamine, Allegra D and a few others main ingredient for allergy sufferers

7:12 am

lbdawger

but i've also seen it on cold remedy packages too

7:15 am

TheByzantine

Guaifenesin is used to treat coughs and congestion caused by the common cold, bronchitis, and other breathing illnesses. This product is usually not used for ongoing cough from smoking or long-term breathing problems (such as chronic bronchitis, emphysema) unless directed by your doctor. Guaifenesin is an expectorant. It works by thinning and loosening mucus in the airways, clearing congestion, and making breathing easier.

If you are self-treating with this medication, it is important to read the package instructions carefully before you start using this product to be sure it is right for you.

Depends on who you talk to. It is north somewhere: the Orkneys, Greenland, Iceland. Basically it is anything beyond known borders.

7:24 am

zoozzoom

Anywhere really cold north then lol

7:25 am

bichon

Medevil term for the furthest north

7:25 am

Kaplan the Magne

why anre you anti antihistamine?

7:25 am

Kaplan the Magne

medieval

7:30 am

zoozzoom

I suppose when you have a cold and the nose is running. It is trying to flush out the bad bacteria maybe by taking antihistamines it is stopping the body from doing its job so prolonging the cold maybe?

7:31 am

MollyL

Does this mean that Bich is prohistamine?
: D

7:32 am

zoozzoom

And I do not reccomend gargling with warm salt water and swallowing a bit by mistake. I felt sick for ages afterwards LOL

7:32 am

zoozzoom

Sorry I am in a bit of a whinging mood today. I will shut up :-)

7:33 am

bichon

No, when I have allergies in the summer. I take them, but not for a cold

7:33 am

MollyL

You can whine Zoom, you're allowed. Everyone else does here.
: D

7:34 am

MollyL

Does here? Here does? Sorry, I think my grammar is buried in a snow drift.

7:35 am

MollyL

So now I'm curious. Why don't you take them for a cold?

7:35 am

zoozzoom

To be honest, Molly. I never noticed the error. Shows you how bad I am at grammar lol

7:39 am

bichon

Colds are caused by a rhinovirus, antihistimes cannot touch that

7:40 am

MollyL

Well I don't think people are taking them to cure their cold. They are taking them to dry up runny noses.

7:42 am

bichon

You'ld have to a decongestant for that

7:49 am

MollyL

Personally, I don't take cold medication. But I know a lot of people who get relief taking antihistamines.

7:53 am

Atalante

antihistamines for colds? how very odd

8:03 am

zoozzoom

Hello, Atalante :-)

8:14 am

Anniebrook

If you can enthuse, why can't you thuse?

8:14 am

Uneaixoise

So far I have made beef burgundy, red sauce and cinnamon rolls. Now I'm working on a pan of macaroni and cheese with ham bits. We won't starve. : D

8:25 am

MLFAN17

does he8 start with the same first 4 letters as the he6/21 and the he 7/32?

8:34 am

Uneaixoise

<<<<<< the one on the right in my icon was such a sweetheart but HUGE -- 80 lbs of muscle!

8:35 am

Uneaixoise

ru, I thought they were scary until I started transporting them -- had never actually "met" one until then -- unless they're raised to be aggressive, they are very very affectionate and gentle

8:36 am

MLFAN17

I have heard that une

8:37 am

MLFAN17

they still scare me

8:38 am

MLFAN17

I call the tiny dogs ankle biting yelpers lol

8:41 am

rururocks

I like pugs and king charles spaniels as little dogs

8:41 am

rubyfoo

If dogs could snort and laugh, Rufe would have, like "What is this insect trying to do? He looks like lunch to me"

8:42 am

MLFAN17

I did have a cairn poo years ago not like the typical small dog behaviours. I wish I could find another one like it I loved that dog

8:42 am

pugs are adorable and not that tiny, ditto king charles

8:44 am

Uneaixoise

that's so sad, ru :-(

8:44 am

Chows have a bad rep, but, like with pit bulls, it dÃ©pends how they're raised

8:45 am

rubyfoo

they are big and stubborn, though

8:45 am

MollyL

One of my neighbors has some little yippy dog that looks like a rat and barks constantly. It's name is Taos. I call it Chaos.

8:45 am

rururocks

Most chows i have met are indifferent and aloof

8:45 am

Uneaixoise

agreed, ruby --people always told me how aggressive they were but the one time I "met" one in a state park, he was so sweet and followed me all over the place :-)

8:45 am

It was being property-protective

8:46 am

there are also a few that take minor key songs and change them into a major key - but weirdly enough, it seemed to me that that change did not make nearly as much of a difference - i thought those songs retained their original emotional impact.

I'm sorry for your loss MLF. My husband had colorectal cancer. He was diagnosed in July 2015 and died 4 months to the day from diagnoses. There were complications from the chemo and radiation treatments. I was not ready to let him go but could not bear watching him suffer. I miss him so much.

1:08 pm

smd that is so terrible it wasn't easy for my mom either. he stopped eating and pretty much laid around they finally decided to let him go...

I have four other great sons and they have been wonderful helping me through both losses. However, I am having a time coming to terms with losing my husband. He was never sick. I was always the one that stayed sick. It seems it should have been me rather than him. Not having a pity party, just realizing you never know what life is going to throw at you.

hi nan, hego, tu, turqazâ€¦everyone doing well today?

2:04 pm

MollyL

There is no point in digging out here until the snow stops. It will be an all day event because we do it in short stretches.

2:04 pm

hego

:)

2:04 pm

rururocks

thankfully it isn't snowing here

2:04 pm

hego

that really would br crazy weather.

2:05 pm

cybernan

nor here -- rain every day though -- wish we could send some to central CA - the price of veggies is outrageous

2:06 pm

rururocks

that's the "I live in a beautiful area" surcharge nan :D

2:06 pm

MollyL

You are lucky Ru, you live in a nice climate. Although I would miss the grass.

2:06 pm

bichon

CA has gotten lots of rain in this El Nino year

2:06 pm

rururocks

well.. we have lots of pot out here molly

2:07 pm

MollyL

The stuff in the ground that is. The other stuff is plentiful I'm sure

2:07 pm

cybernan

we pay the sunshine tax on our gas all summer -- don't expect to have to pay all winter as well

2:07 pm

rururocks

we have drought resistant yards now.. that's the norm

2:08 pm

rururocks

so all million of our golf courses can be green

2:08 pm

MollyL

There are people here who have little bitty townhouse front yards and do the wood chip instead of grass thing because they are too lazy for the upkeep.

2:09 pm

rururocks

maybe their bark is worse than their bite molly :D

2:09 pm

MollyL

Well, what would all those rich Californians do without courses to golf on.

2:09 pm

bichon

I always see in CA rocks insteady of grass

2:09 pm

rururocks

play bridge I guess :D

2:09 pm

cybernan

I thought a lot of the golf courses in CA were going to the links style

2:10 pm

rururocks

not really nan

2:10 pm

rururocks

I see hundreds of thousands of gallons of h20 pumped into green golf courses here

2:10 pm

rururocks

it kind of tees me off so to speak :D

2:11 pm

cybernan

they were talking about it at Palm Desert Greens, but we haven't been down for 3 winters now, so have no idea if they actually converted

2:12 pm

saanichcat

I find it extraordinary that there is such a waste for pleasure use. Up here in the rain forest we are on restrictions in the Spring

2:12 pm

rururocks

I do as well saanich

2:12 pm

rururocks

but then I don't golf either

2:12 pm

bichon

su 6/27, pls

2:12 pm

and also for fracking use but that's a whole nother topic...

2:13 pm

rururocks

oh.. don't get me started on that

2:13 pm

dan2bit

su6 you jest, bichon :-)

2:13 pm

rururocks

that is the stupidest thing the government is allowing here.. it's criminal

2:14 pm

cybernan

don't talk about waste to someone who has just been touring europe --- there is enough wealth in church treasures sitting in vaults or behind glass display cases to feed the starving of the world

2:14 pm

saanichcat

yes it is. (I was going to go on a rant, but you are spared)

2:15 pm

bichon

ty dan

2:15 pm

saanichcat

but you can have all that wealth but without water to grow things you might as well throw it awaay

2:16 pm

cybernan

use the wealth to dig wells, build aqueducts --- surely a life is worth more than some jewel encrusted cross

2:17 pm

rururocks

2:18 pm

rururocks

yeah, we've really screwed things up, haven't we. dogs, kids, the planet ...

2:54 pm

Scrabbler

Why do so many dogs have problems now? Additives in dog food? Antibiotics or hormones in dog food?

2:54 pm

welki

the universe has turned hypersensitive

2:55 pm

rururocks

Imagines hego eating Campbell's soup daily :D

2:55 pm

hego

No dog of mine ever complained. lol

2:55 pm

welki

no clue, scrabbler - i'd guess for the same reasons so many children are food sensitive, too

2:55 pm

Scrabbler

We see so many food allergies in kids,especially peanut allergies.

2:55 pm

rururocks

goldens are sensitive dogs

2:55 pm

hego

They gobbled the stuff right up.

2:56 pm

rururocks

I'm allergic to nuts but not peanuts

2:56 pm

origami

a lot of the purebred dogs I know have allergies ... overbreeding maybe?

2:56 pm

welki

same as one of my grand-kids, ru -- tree nuts are taboo, peanuts are fine

2:56 pm

rururocks

just genetics ori.. my other dogs never had allergies

2:56 pm

Scrabbler

Peanuts are not tree nuts, they are actually beans.

2:57 pm

welki

yummy legumes :)

2:57 pm

hego

legumes

2:57 pm

rururocks

Dylan's mom is allergic.. the breeder now says had she known she wouldn't have bred her

2:57 pm

Is Dylan a lab?

2:57 pm

welki

baxter's parents had no allergies - i'm just lucky

2:57 pm

rururocks

he's a golden retriever

2:58 pm

rururocks

wooo hooo.. we're both "lucky" welki :D

2:58 pm

welki

is it baxter and dylan who are related? or was it monty?

2:59 pm

rururocks

monty was related to your Baxter

3:00 pm

rururocks

and our other dog Lily too

3:00 pm

Scrabbler

Did you two know this before you knew each other?

3:00 pm

rururocks

no.. we found out by looking at relatives

3:00 pm

Scrabbler

Interesting.

3:00 pm

rururocks

Monty's father was a very famous dog

3:00 pm

welki

no, scrabbs - it came up in chat one evening, we were talking bloodlines and voila - turns out that ru and i are distantly related through our beautiful boys

3:01 pm

rururocks

I think grand parents wasn't it Welki?

3:01 pm

welki

yes, i believe so

3:02 pm

rururocks

I like your icon welki

3:02 pm

welki

it's not bax, but it's appropriate - the cone of shame

3:05 pm

welki

i've always had dogs, even another golden retriever, but they all came to me 'previously owned.' baxter was my first puppy, from a good breeder i still keep in touch with, but i've got to say - no more puppies, and likely, the next dog, if there ever is another, will be a mutt

3:05 pm

welki

...but i think bax and murray are my last dogs

3:06 pm

rururocks

no more pups for me either. I'm too old to survive another

3:10 pm

Scrabbler

What is the typical training period?

3:11 pm

rururocks

with goldens?

3:12 pm

rururocks

your whole life :D

3:12 pm

Scrabbler

For a puppy? To get them trained to sleep well overnight, to stay in a crate, to pee and poop outside.

3:13 pm

rururocks

oh.. just a week or so.. Dylan was pretty good about that

3:13 pm

rururocks

Monty was a dream when it came to that

3:13 pm

hego

a week?

3:13 pm

welki

they're just like kids, scrabb - every one is different. baxter was a pain in the neck.

3:13 pm

rururocks

yeah.. pretty much

3:14 pm

rururocks

monty got it right away.. just whined his first night and then all was ok

3:14 pm

hego

that's pretty quick.

3:15 pm

rururocks

we were bonded from when he was 3 weeks old

3:16 pm

welki

having dogs is like being in bondage :)

3:16 pm

rururocks

I only do bondage on the weekends :D who has the time?

3:17 pm

welki

i suppose - my hands are tied during the week

3:17 pm

3:18 pm

rururocks

(just kidding) for all the lurkers out there

3:18 pm

Scrabbler

Same with bunnies. They expect to be fed (salads morning and evening) when they want. The other night when I was getting ready for bed I looked around for Remy because he is usually right outside the bathroom. I went to my bedroom and he was sitting right next to my pillow. *squeal*

3:18 pm

3:22 pm

Scrabbler

I have to keep one bedroom door closed, and bunny-proof stuff in my room.

3:23 pm

Scrabbler

Well,I need to bunny-proof everywhere.

3:23 pm

SO many cords--alarm clocks, lamps, phone chargers...

They have had snow in Scotland,Cumbria and Derbyshire and some in London I believe but thankfully not here yet!!

3:49 pm

Over 40 inches of snow in some places. Thankfully it seems like there are no widespread power outages.

3:50 pm

therealblah

(over 100 cm for my metric friends :))

3:53 pm

it is difficult to imagine that much snow, I hope it soon melts very slowly, you do not want to be flooded.

3:54 pm

Scrabbler

Ah,now my 84 mother is on the phone telling me about her bloated belly and gas.

3:54 pm

therealblah

Unfortunately there is already much flooding in coastal areas due to high tide, wind and full moon. What a mess, glad I am far away

3:54 pm

therealblah

ah thanks scrabb ;)

3:55 pm

Scrabbler

Well, I get to listen to this everyday, and sometimes more than once a day--what she ate, what is bothering her,etc.

3:59 pm

therealblah

my mom was like that too...meanwhile don't waste breath

3:59 pm

therealblah

oops don't waste breath talking to her about her diet lol

4:01 pm

therealblah

'e.g., perhaps cake should not be the primary source of your caloric intake

4:03 pm

Scrabbler

She eats healthy food because I shop for her every Monday.

4:05 pm

Scrabbler

But I explained to her that vegetables do cause gas and being inactive (she mostly sits all day but uses a walker to get to the bathroom) contributes to gas.

4:05 pm

therealblah

oh that's good. We had to talk my mom out of eating chicken that had been in her freezer for 12 years. ("But that's such a waste of money!")

4:05 pm

therealblah

has she tried something like beano?

4:07 pm

therealblah

'yes the veggies will do that, but better than not eating them at all

4:10 pm

Scrabbler

I should buy Beano. I bought her a multistrain probiotic supplement but then she complained that that made her gassy too.

4:11 pm

72 Temple Owl

has anyone seen hego?

4:11 pm

I swear by beano.

4:12 pm

God yes. Power is essential...

5:18 pm

Nef

Good Afternoon, Everyone. How are you all today?

5:19 pm

72 Temple Owl

fine and you, nef?

5:20 pm

Nef

Just fine; kind of thinking you have our "normal" January weather again.

5:21 pm

72 Temple Owl

i certainly hope this weather is not normal for you. it is a winter hurricane.

5:21 pm

Scrabbler

Yes, 18-30 inches is just a normal snowstorm for us.

5:22 pm

Nef

:-) We've had probably more winters with nasty storms that these last 2 wimpy ones.

5:24 pm

Nef

The difference is that Minnesota has always known how to deal with them (because we're used to it)

5:24 pm

car.eeyore

Hey all

5:25 pm

Nef

Hi car.ee

Scrabbler

Hi Car

5:26 pm

car.eeyore

Just finishing up my last few.

5:26 pm

MollyL

Areas are only equipped to deal with snowfall that they are used to. Most of the areas getting hit with this storm are not equipped to deal with it. I don't know how people who get this kind of snow all the time drive in blizzard/white out conditions. Or how delivery trucks get things into the stores and gas stations.

5:26 pm

Scrabbler

Yes, we are accustomed to this weather.

5:28 pm

Nef

I know, Molly. Here in MN we are used to bad winters; but it seems we aren't used to the wimpy ones. I feel bad that you guys are having such a tough time with this weather; but at least it Sounds like people are taking it seriously.

5:28 pm

72 Temple Owl

hi car. molly, i am sure dc is at a standstill.

5:29 pm

Scrabbler

Seain posted that many of Loudon's snowplows broke down. :-(

5:30 pm

Nef

oh, No!. That's horrible having snow plows not working!

5:30 pm

MollyL

It is going to be days/a week before this area gets over a snowfall this big.

5:30 pm

72 Temple Owl

oh my. the area is so close, i forget the climate differences.

5:32 pm

72 Temple Owl

they were wrong about a lot of this one. one good error is that the snow is now light, helping the issue of wires and tree limbs. but it is going to rain and get warm mid week. it will flood.

5:32 pm

penquis

hello all....hope you are all safe and dry...

Need a clue please for SU 6/21?

5:33 pm

MollyL

It has been a HUGE blessing that the snow is light and not heavy and icy. A power outage in this kind of snow storm is very difficult to deal with.

5:33 pm

Scrabbler

Clue for the tr8 please?

5:34 pm

penquis

amen...i remember the ice storm of 1998....awful...

5:34 pm

MollyL

Trying to finish a large grid is so painful.

I prefer them a bit smaller - 29 was ridiculous though!

glad you are ok, jmc

9:57 pm

super.. I actually attacked a closet yesterday and also did some very overdue filing.. bad weather helps those put off indoor chores

9:59 pm

jmcnrick

snowy up in your parts too?

10:01 pm

Aloyisius

nope.. am in SW Fla. Today was extremely windy and cool. I worked out in the grove with my favorite fuzzy hat from up north and a vest and long sleeved shirt..

10:02 pm

jmcnrick

ah. . . had you in the midwest in my head. . . . well no insulation in fla. so that can be chilly

10:04 pm

Aloyisius

yes indeed.. the windows here that are installed when you build a house are pathetic compared to the ones up north..

10:05 pm

Aloyisius

seems to me that if you have a good window against the cold, it would also be a good window against the heat..

10:05 pm

jmcnrick

i had an apartment in Houston that the front door was glass slats. . . .you could never keep the wind out of that

10:06 pm

jmcnrick

you are right of course snuffy but many designs come from pre-a/c

10:06 pm

Aloyisius

eek, not good at all

10:12 pm

Aloyisius

ah, nice when you can remember an obscure word from a past Babble grid.. but I would not have been able to spot si6.18 without Lickety's clues, I confess

10:13 pm

jmcnrick

I have several words i learned from babble. . . cant say that si6/18 comes to mind

10:14 pm

jmcnrick

what does that mean?

10:14 pm

Aloyisius

it is like "no sound" with a vowel attached

10:15 pm

Aloyisius

.. and the last letter of the "no sound" omitted

10:15 pm

jmcnrick

ty snuffy. . . apparently a satyr/sprite

10:15 pm

are you almost done?
