Hello ((zzoozz))
4:06 am
zoozzoom
We are back to normal weather for here.
4:07 am
zoozzoom
Lots of rain but at leaat it is just about mild.
4:07 am
rubyfoo
I don't know what is "normal" any more
4:07 am
MollyL
*Puts out an Amber Alert for the missing lake
4:08 am
rubyfoo
It was unusually june-july, for longer than most years
4:08 am
zoozzoom
Hope you enjoyed le tour, Ruby.
4:09 am
rubyfoo
Sometimes, when there are clouds over the lake, it is sunny higher upwhere my friends live
4:10 am
zoozzoom
Yes very localised weather can be a strange one.
4:10 am
rubyfoo
Not so much, this year since my favorite, Valverde, crashed out the first daay
4:11 am

Hello Ironic, iconic, Molly!
4:11 am

Yes it was a very bad injury. Hope he can recover back to the standard he needs to race at such a high level again.

Hi Ruby. Sounds like mountain weather you're talking about.
4:12 am
rubyfoo
I doubt it as he's 37, fairly old for a cyclist
4:12 am
zoozzoom
This is true. But you never know.
4:16 am
zoozzoom
I am only on the second E but I am struggling to find words today.
4:23 am
zoozzoom
Not sure why but when there is a K letter I always try words that normally begin with a C lol so it is such a shame when Kave,Kare or Karp do not take.
4:24 am
rubyfoo
Mowhen I first started to playly, whenever the volcano is here, I think of you. That's one of the earliest clues I received <
4:24 am
MollyL
Well, keep trying Zoom. There is one that normally starts with a C
4:25 am
rubyfoo
That was supposed to start "Molly"
4:26 am
zoozzoom
And it is here today too, Ruby!
4:26 am
MollyL
There are a few of those. Where there is tips, there is spit. Where there is pots, there is spot. And of course, the volcano/wager one.
4:27 am
MollyL
Yeesh, I meant pots/stop
4:28 am
zoozzoom
Ha! thought I found it, Molly with Kravat haha!
4:28 am
MollyL
And tops/spot
4:28 am
zoozzoom
Oh you mean palindromes.
4:29 am
MollyL
I thought a palindrome was a word that is spelled the same forward and backward, like otto.
4:30 am
zoozzoom
well tops/spot does.
4:30 am
rubyfoo
"Madam I'm Adam"
4:31 am

"able was II ere I saw Elba"
4:31 am

Ha. Google says word pairs like that are semordilap.
Palindromes spelled backward.
4:32 am
rubyfoo
I used to make them up "in my youth"!
4:32 am
MollyL
Step on no pets. Was it a cat I saw.
4:33 am
rubyfoo
Those are new to me; did you invent them?
4:33 am
zoozzoom
so if youlook at the word semordnilap. what does it spell backwards?
4:34 am
MollyL
Sorry, semordnilap.
4:35 am
dc43
Well spotted zooz
4:36 am
MollyL
As usual, I had to look up all the K words. The only one I got on my own was the one usually spelled with a C.
4:37 am

Hello, DC :-)
4:38 am

I was so blue yesterday, that I stayed in bed and binge-watched "How to get away with murder" on Netflix

MollyL
Ack, prefix plus a word
11:23 am

wonder if there's any prefixes that are also commonly suffixes
11:25 am

Actually the pr6/24 and the pr8 mean the same thing
11:26 am

and the other pr6/24 is just a plural
12:26 pm

rururocks
It's been a really good run
6:54 pm
rururocks
I have had 7 Goldens and my first dog was a shepherd
6:55 pm
welki
fostering is hard, ru - i give you kudos. hard, because you don't know what you're going to find and hard because you probably won't want to give her back
6:55 pm
rururocks
I will train her to be a nice dog and hope that she finds a wonderful home. I will keep her as long as it takes to find the right home. I can let her go I think

jubi
I've been lurking. Following your conversation, I lost my kitty of 15 years at the beginning of the summer, and thought that I was crazy that it has affected me so deeply.
7:07 pm
jubi
Now I know I'm not crazy.
7:07 pm
rururocks
important pets are as meaningful to people as children
7:07 pm

loosing a beloved pet is gutwrenching, jubi. Sorry it happened to you too
7:08 pm
rururocks
I would give everything I have to have my last Dog back for another round
7:08 pm
cybernan
I like other people's dogs --- I figure after raising 3 kids, I don't need to train dogs. I still have a husband to work on there :D
7:09 pm

7:09 pm
Bugsaw
sadly, ruru is right
7:10 pm

after 54 years, I have no illusions, ru
7:10 pm
jubi
I have learned about the joys of a dog late. The boy brought one home, then he left me the dog. They are fine people. Glad I have one in my life.
7:10 pm
rururocks
dogs are great.. sometimes better than spouses
7:10 pm
rururocks
here's the test:
7:11 pm
jubi
Yeah, the dog doesn't talk back, not much at least.
7:11 pm
rururocks
put your spouse and your dog in the trunk of the car and leave them for 3 hours .. then open it and see which one is happy to see you :D
7:12 pm
rururocks
(that's a joke ... would never do that to a pet)
7:12 pm
Bugsaw
such a cynic ruru
7:12 pm
cybernan
somehow I don't think so -- mine treats me pretty well -- and let's face it - I'm far from perfect.
7:12 pm
rururocks
(shocked look)
7:12 pm
jubi
My spouse I could lock in the trunk, wouldn't do that to the dog.
7:12 pm
rururocks
