8:06 am

aslindy

I don't have them yet, so no idea

8:07 am

rubyfoo

yes, teach

8:07 am

MollyL

I was fine with Renkl's article until she had to bring Trump into it.

8:08 am

rubyfoo

Did you like the bluebird divebombing the starlings?

8:08 am

MollyL

I've seen that kind of bird behavior.

8:09 am

aslindy

yes the ul 8 and 10 are related

8:09 am

Trifioso

I liked her article even after she brought trumpf into it. She's right. He is ridiculous. There is PLENTY to go around.

8:09 am

aslindy

and I don't have any ul8 motive in telling you

8:10 am

rubyfoo

In Binghamton, l had a large grey tabby who would gat divebombed by bluejays and would cower in the grass

8:11 am

Trifioso

I miss the magpies we used to see everywhere in Ireland. I suppose we do have them here in the States, but no where near where I live.

8:13 am

rubyfoo

l think l have a pair of lmagpies but they fly back and forth so fast that it's hard to be sure

8:14 am

rubyfoo

8:14 am

Trifioso

8:14 am

rubyfoo

l'll be quiet now

8:15 am

Trifioso

not a real word, so not a real infraction, methinks

8:16 am

rubyfoo

WOW, Trif, what kind of whales and where?

8:29 am

Trifioso

i suspect we will see mostly humpbacks, minkes, and maybe a right whale or two?

8:32 am

Trifioso

apparently sei whales have been hanging out as well

I saw the ul 8 clue in the chat but found the 10 all by myself without knowing they were related! yes, that made me so happy.

8:58 am

but just need help with RE 8 now - have two RE 7s but can't extend them

8:58 am

MLFAN17

HA got th ul 10

8:59 am

hokie carla

the re 7 can be a verb or a noun. I only have 2 so I don't know how many there are. the 8 easily builds on it so you must not have the 7.

9:00 am

MLFAN17

i don't have any 7s

hokie carla

well, I have kinda ground to a halt with 112 left. gotta get busy getting ready for our weekend camping trip so I probably won't finish today. happy babbling!

9:09 am

Scrabbler

Enjoy the weekend. Spray people and clothes with permethrin. The ticks are taking over the world.

9:11 am

hokie carla

ugh, I hate ticks, thanks for the reminder. btw, when we were in Canada last week in the snow and ice, I had read on the nat'l parks website that it was tick season, I was like, I doubt it. Then my husband got a tick on a hike!

9:12 am

Scrabbler

The insects will survive after humans destroy most of the planet.

9:13 am

hokie carla

the dog is on tick med, but they could still catch a ride on his fur, so I will keep an eye on that too. it's hard with a golden retriever, though. so much fur.

9:13 am

hokie carla

yeah, I don't understand the purpose of ticks or mosquitos.

9:14 am

Scrabbler

Food for other animals.

9:15 am

hokie carla

that 10 is a word. I may go shopping tomorrow. if not, i could ********** go for a long hike.

10:51 pm

danf63

I may have to squeeze that into a conversation sometime soon...

10:54 pm

mkg

actually i am not sure it is correct. that would be with an A for first letter perhaps.

10:57 pm

danf63

Dictionary said it's the adverb of the 8, so if your hike is a secret it could work...

10:58 pm

mkg

well, i am off. passed half way so time for sleep. gnight
