if you can have a footnote, why not the opposite?
1:22 am
Kamanjah
I'm turning that one around in my brain, Sprite. It would practically have to be a forethought.
1:23 am
jessmom
the opposite is in the grid
1:23 am
sprite
:D *hugs Kam* Lovely to see you.
1:23 am

jess... you are totally right. Must have mistyped it the first time, because it did not take. Thanks!

I automatically assumed it wasn't a word since you said that, Spite! See how much I trust you ;)

lol! Better not, I make mistakes by the bucketfull!
1:41 am
Kamanjah
One of our little towns that really got hit by the quake is in the grid. Hmmm.
1:42 am
sprite
was it close to you, Kam?
1:43 am
Kamanjah
We didn't feel it. I think I measured the distance at ~317 miles. People to the north of us felt it, but we're on solid rock here.
1:43 am
sprite
am glad. It was a big one.
1:44 am
Kamanjah
My daughter doesn't live too far away, but they said they didn't feel it. I'm surprised, because they live closer than LA, and LA felt it in a big way.
1:45 am
sprite
maybe also on solid ground?
1:45 am
Kamanjah
Yes, it was big - it's the longest "swarm" I've ever seen here. I lived down there when the Northridge quake hit, and it emptied out my bookcases!
1:46 am
Kamanjah
They feel small quakes at their place often. I don't know if they were home. If they were out and about, they wouldn't have been as likely to feel it.
1:46 am
sprite
wow! Must be a really scary feeling. We do not have earthquakes here, just a few minor blips when they emptied the natural gas reserves out too far.
1:48 am
Kamanjah
Once you live through one, you never forget it! It's pretty unsettling.
1:48 am
sprite
Time is up, alas. Lovely to have seen you, Kam! *hugs*
*leaves big hug in chog for rose to find*
And to you all, a blessed day and a peaceful night.

well, folks, anecdotal evidence that chocolate is healthy - I never had ankle swelling problems (except with one pregnancy) until I was in the hospital for 3+ months last year. Got home, resumed regular diet (including "choklit") and it went away. Ranout last week, ankles began to swell. Shopped and got some yesterday, this AM ankles back to normal. Hmmm...
10:05 am
hokie carla
hmmm indeed. I always knew I can't live without it.

went looking for references for the sodium in beer... now wondering if it was just a personal thing for Hubs - he used to say Bud gave him headaches and Busch didn't. Thought it was sodium or maybe preservative content, and thought I'd read that it was possible back then. Now I'm seeing smaller numbers.
10:33 am

she was up against a recent #1 player in the world, and acquitted herself very well - she did seem to lose her nerve in the second set a bit, called for a trainer at one point, and had a pretty high number of unforced errors. But she broke serve at least once, and forced deuce a lot

my clue would have been most of the word that was a major plot point in the movie series I already mentioned in the chat. and then maybe one person would have gotten it.
2:56 pm
hokie carla
I'm having a really hard time with the first co5/12, 6/21. will accept any clues. :D
2:56 pm
bichon
me too need the co 24
2:56 pm
BzznBea
I have a plural for the first co5/12
2:57 pm
BzznBea
Maybe the dove sound with extra vowels and plural?
2:57 pm
hokie carla
whoops, 2nd one
2:58 pm
hokie carla
probably that. I have been trying combos like that.
2:58 pm
bichon
need the penultimate one
2:58 pm
BzznBea
Yes, dove sound, etc...
2:58 pm
Gillie
co5/12 is something a British person might call out.
2:58 pm
hokie carla
think of space, Neil de Grasse Tyson's show
2:59 pm
Gillie
Or Australian, I guess.
3:00 pm
bichon
sorry, don't use Brit speak
3:02 pm
Gillie
The penultimate 5/12 is a mathematical term, used for a smaller "group" of something within another.
3:03 pm
BzznBea
Nine left...Monday things to do...
3:03 pm
bichon
no idea hat that is Gillie
3:04 pm
Gillie
It's just the same as the previous co5/12, except for the last consonant.
3:05 pm
bichon
don't have that either
3:07 pm
Gillie
The mathematical one looks like a mispelling of a word meaning to pamper or coddle.
3:07 pm
bichon
No idea what that is
