Good Morning.

The pe 10 is 1 of the 4 horsemen of the Apocalypse.
9:17 am
godthaab
Where are people getting the pe10 name from? It doesn't seem to be Biblical.
9:19 am
Nef
godthaab, start with pe4/5 bothersome insect
9:20 am
Nef
and I've always thought of the 4 horsemen as pe 10, war, famine and death.
9:21 am
godthaab
Oh, I have the word, I was wondering where the reference was coming from. I know them as Conquest, Famine, Death, War.
9:21 am
Judi
Good morning all. Pe10... an all around bad hair day.
9:22 am
Gillie
There are various interpretations of the horses, apparently. Pe10 seems to be a relatively recent one for the white horse, otherwise commonly interpreted as Conquest.
9:24 am
godthaab
Ok, thanks
9:24 am
Nef
oops! Not a word, don't try
9:45 am
Dorens
pe 10 words.. just say neigh
9:54 am
MLFAN17
Conquest is the name of a horse?
9:55 am

yeah.. Donald Trump's horse
9:55 am
BzznBea
Not this horse.

How's the no coffee going, ru?

I am still not understanding the pe 10 more help pls?
9:57 am
rururocks
rough.. but i have hope.. ORi turned me on to a coffee roasting company near by that has lower acid coffees with a 70% reduction of acid
9:57 am
MLFAN17
the Conquer etc are the names I found for the 4 horses
9:58 am
BzznBea
famine, plague, pe 10 starts with the bug
9:58 am
Nef
try wikipedia, MLF
9:58 am
rururocks
oh.. got the `10.. thank you bzz
9:58 am
BzznBea
Or morewords
9:58 am
MLFAN17
yes I got that part bzz
9:58 am
MLFAN17
Wikipedia for what exactly?
9:59 am
BzznBea
So have you tried the lower acid coffee?
9:59 am
Nef
MLF, Wiki lists the other name for conquestthe 4 horsemen lists
9:59 am
BzznBea
That's a big reduction in acid.
10:00 am
rururocks
i ordered some.. i' will when it arrives
10:00 am
rururocks
I'm cranky as hell too :D
10:00 am

sorry, I meant wiki gives the pe word (in place of conquest)for the 4 horsemen
10:00 am

MLFAN17
bzz are you yawning a lot?
10:02 am
Nef
Glad you got it MLF. I've always learned the pe 10 & never heard conquest used for the 4 horsemen; guess it depends on your Bible interpretation?
10:03 am
BzznBea
Why would I be yawning, mlf?
10:04 am
MLFAN17
a fatal epidemic disease, especially bubonic plague...that is the definition for the 10
10:04 am
MLFAN17
bzz lack of caffeine in the body
10:04 am
BzznBea
I didn't stop drinking coffee.

oh sorry meant ruru

I am not cranky per se I guess it causes anxiety and irritability as does not having it sometimes
10:08 am
rururocks
i think it's worse with cigarette smokers who are trying to stop. but it is a similar response
10:09 am
BzznBea
They don't make a caffeine patch.
10:09 am
MLFAN17
ruru true
10:09 am
MLFAN17
bzz even those patches are not good to use for those trying to quit smoking
10:10 am

Chantix isn't good either

I am celebrating all of the holidays I mentioned in my profile today. I am babbling with my Barbie doll next to me as I eat Crab meat with my false teeth.Started panicking that I would not find all the words,but then I got over it.I do not care if I finish. I do not think I've ever celebrated so many holidays in a single day!LOL!

8:43 pm
Minveryork
Didn't know there was a False Teeth Day,Get Over It Day or Crab Meat Day and Panic Day. It seeems like there is a day for everything,just like there's an app 4 everything.
8:43 pm
Minveryork
I have 27 words left and Im thinking about stopping soon
8:43 pm
Nef
So how does a person celebrate False Teeth Day when they have all of their natural teeth?
8:44 pm
LeslieAnn
maybe with one of those windup set of teeth
8:44 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
monkeyed the it6, new word on me
8:44 pm
Minveryork
Guess you would just appreciate the fact that you do not have to wear any false teeth yet Nef, LOL!
8:45 pm
NatashaW
My grandma had false teeth... because her husband's secretary/girlfriend wanted her to give my grandfather a divorce and when she refused, the girlfriend punched her in the mouth and knocked out all her teeth
8:45 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
nbt at last, 65 to go
8:46 pm
Nef
Natasha! What a story!!
8:46 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
Panic day? Isn't that one twice a week? LOL
8:46 pm
Minveryork
With my lack of dental care, I would not be surprised if I have to wear false teeth in my elderly years. I just went to dentist last week to get a scaling done on my teeth.
8:47 pm
LeslieAnn
i like to celebrate every day nef lol
8:47 pm

I've been writing a family memoir before all the stories vanish... I'm the last one left so when I go, they go.

8:48 pm
Minveryork
I had to pay $420 for antibiotics because my gums are so infected. Need to start brushing with electric toothbrush
8:49 pm
NatashaW
My husband also has terrible teeth... he uses that awful tasting medicated mouthwash every night
8:49 pm
Minveryork
That's the price U pay if U do not take care of your teeth
8:49 pm
NatashaW
Well I think he grew up before fluoridated water so it's not 100% his fault
8:50 pm
Minveryork
Then I guess you NEVER kiss him goodnight NatashaW.
8:50 pm
NatashaW
Some of it is just genetics... I was blessed to inherit my dad's teeth. Made of iron apparently
8:50 pm
NatashaW
LOL I do
8:51 pm
Nef
That's a very worthy thing to do, Natasha. Now that I'm a member of our family's senior generation; I want know something (such as: when all of my aunts & uncles came home; I know us kids doubled up in beds & even slept crosswise in beds; but where did the grown ups sleep (there were 8 aunts & uncles that would come home for Christmas & Easter!)
8:51 pm
NatashaW
Yes, it's horribly frustrating at times as I'm writing, I have a question and there is literally NO ONE to ask now
8:51 pm
Minveryork
I believe my brother has Halitosis.He has had bad breath ever since he was a kid.He doesn't take care of his teeth
8:53 pm
Nef
I had braces for 7 years when I was a kid (first kid in town to ever have them) so I've always been extremely vigilant about brushing & flossing my teeth & gums.
8:53 pm
Minveryork
Does the pe 6/30 word start with a writing utensil or the pe* rally? I have been stuck on that word all day long!
8:53 pm
medusa
Don't have it yet. Will help you look.
8:54 pm

Orthodontist said if I had not been any wearing braces, I would have probably lost two of my front teeth.
8:57 pm
Nef
Min, I love my electric toothbrush; and it helps me keep my gums healthy too. (Most people forget to brush their gums; gum disease will make poor teeth worse
8:58 pm
Nef
And that must have been 1 heck of a hit in the mouth Min!!
8:59 pm
Minveryork

You sound like my hubby, Min. He's never gone to the dentist for a routine checkup and not had to return for cavities, root canal, or whatever. (And he now has False teeth too!)

9:04 pm
Minveryork
Can I please have clue for the first 2 ph words? Thank U!
9:04 pm
Nef
Unfortunately, he had a bad dentist at one point as an adult and the work that he did made everything else worse! I told him to get a second opinion on his mouth and the second (& 3rd!) dentists told us we should get our money back & report that dentist to the state board!
9:05 pm
NatashaW
first word may be more familiar spelled with an f at the beginning - something you use with your drip coffee machine perhaps?
9:05 pm
Nef
ph7/36 is a strainer
9:05 pm
Minveryork
Wow! Did you follow that advise Nef?
9:05 pm
NatashaW
2nd ph word is your famous "soup lip" starts out like the previous word
9:06 pm
NatashaW
Think ____adelphia +consonant+Captain Morgan
9:07 pm
Nef
yes we did get our money back. And we talked with the dentist and told him we were going to talk to the state board ( DH called the state board, I wasn't involved in that)
9:07 pm
NatashaW
Wow Nef, I hope you did that! There are a lot of charlatans out there "drilling for dollars"
9:07 pm
Minveryork
Thank you so much for those ph word! I just found them.
9:09 pm

10:19 pm
Minveryork
Hello dcsceain! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid.
10:26 pm
MollyL
Seain, you are dating yourself. You probably remember when there were "Peoples" before there were "CVS"
10:27 pm
Minveryork
Taking a break DOES help.Just came back and found five Va words that I had been stuck on for most of the day.
10:28 pm
Minveryork
Hello MollyL! How are you doing today? Welcome to grid.
10:29 pm
Minveryork
I just googled Peoples drug stores and they still do exist.
10:30 pm
dcseain
They were Peoples for more of my life than they've been CVS. I remember Dart Drug, even worked for a Dart Group company.
10:31 pm
Minveryork
It has been CVS ever since I was born. I am sure the next generation will grow up with a different pharmacy also.
10:31 pm
dcseain
Awww, some labled the Peoples Buliding (Formerly the Peoples Drug Warehouse) as Peoples Drug Store. <3
10:33 pm
dcseain
I remember when Drug Fair merged with Gray Drugs to become Gray Drug Fair and when Rite Aid acquired them.
10:34 pm
dcseain
I hope you're well, minver. been a while since i've seen you here.
10:35 pm
Minveryork
For some reason I think Rite Aide won't last much longer.
10:35 pm
Minveryork
I am hanging in there dcseain. I am plodding through life
10:37 pm
dcseain
Our local Rite Aid has a Walgreens pharmacy in it now, and has for 6 months. Slowest conversion of an acquired store ever.
10:37 pm
dcseain
plodding through life is apt.
