Yes, and en6/18 Thanks, Molly.

7:23 am

MollyL

Oh, I got one right. what do you know

7:23 am

MollyL

I'm making apple, cinnamon, walnut waffles and sausage. It smells mighty good in here. : D

7:24 am

BzznBea

I'm sure it does!

7:24 am

BzznBea

I'm going to make an apple dessert for dinner tonight.

7:26 am

7:28 am

lil*monkey

I'm an en6,27 of your breakfast Molly!

7:39 am

MollyL

I do pork sausage for breakfast. Bob Evans is our favorite.

7:39 am

MollyL

I love the smell of breakfast and coffee in the morning. It's a good, home smell. What kind of dessert are you making Bea?

7:40 am

BzznBea

We have a little local dive convience store that has a full butcher shop in the back. They make their own sausage. So good!

7:41 am

MollyL

I keep toying with the idea of getting a meat grinder and making sausage. It just seems like too much work for now. Maybe, if I ever get to retire.

7:42 am

BzznBea

I'm making an apple kuchen.

7:44 am

MollyL

Mmm, I bet that smells good when it's in the oven

8:11 am

8:38 am

hokie carla

yes, I was oddly excited when I found fr8

8:39 am

lil*monkey

Hokie, you are inland, right? Not on the coast? I see OBX is flooding badly :( right now due to very high winds

8:40 am

hokie carla

yes, Charlotte area. we are so far from OBX we don't ever go there anymore. but winds are crazy here as well.

8:40 am

lil*monkey

el5,16 is a word, do you have that?

8:41 am

BzznBea

I know they were expecting weather like that. Our winds have died down some today.

8:41 am

lil*monkey

My close friend Sue has just moved to Calabash NC, I'm excited to go visit her there.

8:41 am

hokie carla

no, I have el5/10

8:41 am

hokie carla

My friend has a beach house at Sunset, which is right next to Calabash. I like that area a lot.

8:41 am

lil*monkey

OK it's the Christmas helper

8:43 am

hokie carla

Ok!

8:43 am

lil*monkey

Have you met any Babblers in real life?

8:44 am

8:45 am

lil*monkey

8:46 am

hokie carla

8:48 am

hokie carla

I'm not that exciting in real life just so you know :D. not that I'm exciting here either.

8:48 am

lil*monkey

:D

8:48 am

lil*monkey

The exciting part is that we share Babble

8:50 am

BzznBea

Gracious there are a lot of R's...

8:50 am

lil*monkey

I just found a couple more Re words

8:51 am

9:23 am

MollyL

Just dropped a load of cash at the grocery store. It was one of those "if we use it, buy it" trips. Complete with rude, impatient customers.

9:24 am

rururocks

use it buy it? i don't understand

9:24 am

MollyL

News flash, if I have 40 items and you have one, don't get behind me in line and sigh the whole time. And no, I wasn't in an express lane. It's another way of saying we were out of everything Ru.

9:24 am

rururocks

oh

9:25 am

rururocks

i do notice that people are getting ruder in the stores.. that happens this time of year.. happy holidays and all

9:25 am

MollyL

I'm trying to keep my grocery shopping to once a week instead of twice.

9:26 am

rururocks

i might do that too if i could remember everything i need

9:26 am

MollyL

That is my problem as well. But if I need stuff mid-week, I have been ordering grocery delivery. That is a God send.

9:28 am

rururocks

the local whole foods at thanksgiving is absolutely insane

9:28 am

rururocks

nothing worse than aggressive hippy types and vegetarians on a mission :D

9:30 am

MollyL

I need to go back to shopping at 6 AM. It is always easier.

9:32 am

I didn't realize that was even possible (said the person who does this for a living :-)

10:32 am

hokie carla

I said same earlier though I don't do it for a living. ridiculous

10:32 am

Alleyn58

Not a word but thanks

10:32 am

NatashaW

Well, it could be argued that such excess attention might end up violating the author's voice or intent

10:33 am

lil*monkey

Natasha, where in MD are you? I'm in Newport News VA

10:33 am

hokie carla

that was my reading of it, but I still think it's silly

10:34 am

NatashaW

Just inside the Beltway, exit 29 :-)

10:35 am

hokie carla

I seem to have stalled out at 82 left, so I reckon I'll have to use the list.

10:36 am

lil*monkey

My mom lives near Tysons, I'm up there every couple weeks. Hate the traffic!

10:37 am

NatashaW

It can be tough sledding... but I always remind myself that it's like this because there is so much richness of culture on offer

10:37 am

MollyL

Exit 29 Wheaton/Langley Park

10:38 am

NatashaW

Yep

10:38 am

NatashaW

I'm a mile from S. Spring Metro

10:38 am

MollyL

I know my Capital Beltway exits.

10:38 am

NatashaW

And once they finish the Purple Line (if I'm still alive) I'll be 2 blocks from public transport

10:39 am

NatashaW

lite

10:39 am

lil*monkey

My mom lives near Orange line Falls Church, and silver line Tysons. Silver line is jokingly called Platinum line by McLean residents.

10:39 am

NatashaW

oops sorry

10:39 am

MollyL

I loved the subway when it was new and not used very much. Now it is horrible for me.

10:40 am

NatashaW

I love it compared to the alternative (Driving in DC)

10:40 am

lil*monkey

Me too Molly, rarely use it. I will use it on Dec 14 to ride to Arlington Cemetery for the annual wreath laying day.

10:41 am

hokie carla

I rode it there once to a football game

10:41 am

MollyL

I agree with that. Driving in DC is hideous.

10:41 am

NatashaW

It's not perfect (Just came back from Montreal which has one of the best-run metro systems on this continent), but I still vastly prefer using that over driving

10:41 am

NatashaW

Better for the environment, by far

10:42 am

NatashaW

And I still just love riding the train and gazing out the window as opposed to competing with a-holes on the Beltway who want to run me off the road because I'm going speed limit

10:42 am

hokie carla

we have one in CLT now and if I still worked downtown I would take it. a lot of people complain that it takes longer with all the stops, but I love to just sit and listen to audiobooks or podcasts and relax.

10:44 am

NatashaW

exactly!! I'm still a window-gazer. The last woman on earth without earbuds and a phone glued to my hand.

10:47 am

hokie carla

we have taken it down for sporting events - beats having to find parking IMO

10:48 am

rururocks

let's hear it for the a-holes on the freeways :D

10:49 am

NatashaW

Love the SUVs and 18 wheelers who drive up my rear end. I'm going 65 in a 55 zone and they act like I'm doing 30.

10:49 am

hokie carla

boo

10:51 am

rururocks

you guys should try driving in the bay area if you really want to see a-holes on the freeways.. they are crazy here..

10:51 am

hokie carla

I was test driving a car yesterday on a large road with a speed limit of 50. I was doing 60 and said, oh, I'm speeding, and slowed down a little. Then I noticed people were flying by at like 70.

10:51 am

hokie carla

I have driven in the bay area. I couldn't get over that motorcycles drive between the two lanes of traffic. that is insane.

10:52 am

NatashaW

Once had a boss who said, as I was driving us to a staff retreat, going 65 in a 55 zone, "Speed it up a little, will ya?" I pointed out I was 10 over the limit. Her reply: "The speed limit is just a suggestion."

10:52 am

MollyL

I see that shit every day. Commuting to work is the worst part of my week. And I don't have a long or difficult one.

10:53 am

NatashaW

Every day I say a prayer. Blessed Art Thou, O Lord My God, Who Hast Not Made Me a Commuter (I work from home)

10:53 am

rururocks

i drive a lot and am a defensive driver.. i watch the road and stay away from the crazies if i can.. sometimes it's unavoidable

10:53 am

MollyL

It has always been my dream to work from home. I tried it once, but could not make enough money.

10:53 am

hokie carla

I told my husband when we were in college that I would never move to NoVa/DC area.

10:54 am

MollyL

I don't know about California, but around here, they will give a driver's license to anyone.

10:54 am

NatashaW

I could definitely make more if I took a job outside the home but long ago decided to make do with what I can bring in writing and editing from the comfort of my Stressless chair

10:55 am

NatashaW

Molly you are so right... I befriended an Iraqi refugee couple. She wanted to get her license so I gave her some driving lessons. She was godawful. Next I hear she got her license!!

10:55 am

rururocks

here in california they give my mother a driver's license.. she couldn't drive in her thirties much less her 90's

10:56 am

NatashaW

LOL I know a 92 year old woman (mother of a friend) who just got a FIVE YEAR license renewal! The state is NUTS

10:56 am

hokie carla

omg, we almost got hit by man in SC the other weekend. He was 100 if he was a day.

10:56 am

MollyL

I am still wondering why people can bring an interpreter to take the written test. Um...don't you need to be able to read English to read traffic signs?

10:56 am

hokie carla

then about 1 minute after he almost hit us, he pulled directly out in front of someone and they had to slam on the brakes.

10:57 am

BzznBea

Word of the day: re7/40...oy vey!

10:57 am

NatashaW

And sadly older drivers are the ones often involved in pedestrian accidents and fatalities. That 13 year old girl on her bike who was struck in the crosswalk last week and is fighting for her life... the driver was 84.

10:57 am

hokie carla

my dad hit a pedestrian before he quit driving. but they just kinda bumped into him and then walked away.

10:58 am

NatashaW

The synapses just don't snap as quickly as we age. Which is why I don't speed.

10:58 am

NatashaW

phew carla, a close shave

10:59 am

hokie carla

yep. he seemed okay about quitting driving and selling his truck. he is almost 80 but has parkinson's really bad now so I guess he knew it was inevitable to stop driving.

10:59 am

hokie carla

bye, Natasha

10:59 am

MollyL

Nice of you to do that Natasha.

11:00 am

hokie carla

ok, I have missing words again today. I know I put those in already.

11:01 am

MollyL

Babble seems to be losing words for all players. It is very frustrating. I'm glad I gave up being fixed on finishing.

11:01 am

rururocks

that's the greatest gift natasha

11:01 am

cybernan

Good morning all -- reading the chat makes me doubly glad that I don't live in a large city :)

11:01 am

hokie carla

yeah, saanichat & I talked about it before and it seemed like Macs but now it seems to be everyone.

11:02 am

MollyL

It is definitely not only on Macintosh computers.

11:03 am

rururocks

<---down to 11,but stuck now

11:04 am

BzznBea

11:06 am

hokie carla

11:07 am

Uneaixoise

Clue for the no8 please?

11:08 am

hokie carla

11:10 am

saanichcat

11:11 am

saanichcat

thanks pen, sorry about that

11:11 am

penquis

no problem....just thought I would clarify....the print is hard to read....for me anyway, lol....

11:12 am

BzznBea

Finally! Any clues before I leave?

11:12 am

penquis

no thanks....too early for me...

11:13 am

cybernan

too early for me too, ty

11:14 am

saanichcat

I am glad you did clarify that; I also find the print hard to read. Can't bellieve people actually play this game on their phones!

11:14 am

rururocks

<-plays on his phone sometimes

11:14 am

saanichcat

congrats BzznBea!

11:14 am

penquis

me either.....i actually make the print bigger on my laptop to make it easier for me to read....

11:15 am

hokie carla

I don't even have my account logged in on my phone. I have played on iPad mini but don't like it.

11:15 am

penquis

of course, wearing my glasses would help, as my optician brother would tell me... ;oP

11:15 am

saanichcat

I even got special computer eyeglasses....

11:15 am

saanichcat

snap!

11:16 am

penquis

yes, my brother made me some for playing my recorder....could use those, but i don't...i would probably use them if i couldn't enlarge the screen through my laptop's mousepad thingee....(wondering if that has a real name)...

11:17 am

saanichcat

hokie do you think you would be able to play OK on the regular sized iPad? because I am getting one next week as I will be away from computer for a while

11:17 am

penquis

i play on my iPad and it's ok....have to enlarge the print, but it works...

11:18 am

saanichcat

pen your eyes sound worse than mine! have new lens implants now, what a major difference! I can even read street signs when driving...

11:18 am

penquis

mine aren't so bad....just don't want to strain....

11:19 am

saanichcat

thaks for info on iPad, so much money, don't want to waste it on something unusable

11:19 am

rururocks

would someone clue the re7/40 please

11:19 am

penquis

it's the chat and word list that i want enlarged....

11:19 am

penquis

i use a keyboard case for my ipad....works fine...

11:20 am

penquis

you can get one for about $50 I think....

11:20 am

saanichcat

re 7/40 : add cons to word previous

11:20 am

hokie carla

you can zoom in on iPad and iPhone but it's kind of annoying. I do use a keyboard with mine and I had to disable autocorrect on it.

11:21 am

penquis

yes, i had to do that, too...

11:21 am

saanichcat

$50? Start new @ $700 up here

11:21 am

penquis

i am talking about a keyboard case, not the ipad itself...

11:21 am

hokie carla

I think $50 was for the keyboard, but I think mine was cheaper

11:22 am

saanichcat

aaaha...

11:29 am

penquis

gotta go....bbl to finish, i hope.....bye for now....

11:29 am

hokie carla

11:55 am

hokie carla

down to 7 now

12:03 pm

hokie carla

I am baffled by the first re7/40 since I know the first 4 letters and should be able to figure out the points.

12:09 pm

doseffing

... I"ve only got one so far .... a person who really dislikes something

12:10 pm

hokie carla

yeah, not that one

12:10 pm

doseffing

... sorry

12:10 pm

hokie carla

down to 3, that re7 and 2 te6

12:10 pm

hokie carla

thanks for trying :D

12:12 pm

hokie carla

ooh, found a te6

12:15 pm

hokie carla

ooh, found the other. now all that's left is that pesky re7.

12:16 pm

doseffing

.... re 7l40 .... a fancy (i.e. British) way to spell "an ancient religous object" such as a piece of the cross or the thumb bone of an ancient SAINT

12:17 pm

hokie carla

oh lord, I'm not up on those. thanks.

12:18 pm

doseffing

... don't use the "v"

12:18 pm

hokie carla

okay, that will help as I kept trying to cram the v in to make the points

12:19 pm

zoozzoom

Have to say I still use the word relic.And have never used the re7/40

12:19 pm

doseffing

... yeah ... I was too ...

12:19 pm

Deeha

wow, never thought of spelling it like that. tvm

12:19 pm

doseffing

... well you're just not Norman enough

12:19 pm

hokie carla

lol, I kept looking for a c after that def thinking it was part relic

12:19 pm

zoozzoom

LOL

12:20 pm

zoozzoom

That did make me laugh, Doseffing!

12:21 pm

hokie carla

holy cow, still took me a while but now I got it. thanks! fireworks!

12:21 pm

doseffing

... I cheated ... I"m a quarter Pur Laine French Canadian ... so I use thee q in a bunch of places ... like cheque

12:21 pm

hokie carla

LOL

12:22 pm

hokie carla

I've been watching a Canadian show and have seen "cheque" twice in the closed captions.

12:22 pm

zoozzoom

Yes I use cheque to write out a paper money to somone but use check to see results of football say.

12:22 pm

hokie carla

interesting

12:23 pm

doseffing

... have you seen the John Ham commercials where he claims to be Canadian? ...

12:23 pm

hokie carla

and by football you mean soccer? ;)

12:23 pm

hokie carla

I have not seen those

12:23 pm

doseffing

... that's quite correct

12:23 pm

zoozzoom

That is correct, Hokie.

12:24 pm

doseffing

... you'll know you've been infected with CAnadianism when youy spell the word "colour" as a matter of course and pride

12:24 pm

doseffing

... GO YOU SPURS

12:24 pm

zoozzoom

I use the U a lot in words that the USA do not.

12:25 pm

doseffing

... and they all hate you for it

12:25 pm

zoozzoom

Not keen on Tottenham myself lol

12:25 pm

doseffing

... but I use it even went it's not supposed to be used

12:26 pm

doseffing

... as long as you don't cheer for Arsenal it's okay

12:26 pm

zoozzoom

yet I do not hate the good people of USA for not using it!

12:26 pm

zoozzoom

No I am not keen on that team either lol

12:28 pm

doseffing

... Brighton or Southhampton?

12:28 pm

zoozzoom

I am sad to say I only dislike those teams purely for the reason of some peeple I dd not like that support those teams. Yes sad I know.

12:29 pm

doseffing

... or Bournemouth ... only other south coast team I can think of ... unless you go to second division

12:29 pm

hokie carla

my friend does talk to text and her siri is british guy (I use the same) and it actually spelled "favourite"

12:29 pm

zoozzoom

No preference on those two teams, Doseffing lol

12:30 pm

zoozzoom

I support the team of where I was born, Doseffing but I am not an avid supporter.

12:30 pm

doseffing

... yeah ... but it's not supposed to be neighbour

12:30 pm

zoozzoom

To me that is the correct way to spell it, Hokie.

12:31 pm

doseffing

... all well ... must be off to shovel some snow ... how Canadian can you get? ... luck to all

12:31 pm

zoozzoom

I prefer the sports of F1 and cycling.

12:32 pm

zoozzoom

Have a great day and lovely evening, Doseffing!

12:32 pm

hokie carla

well, my autocorrect actually tried to change it

12:33 pm

zoozzoom

How rude of it. I hope you told it off lol

12:33 pm

zoozzoom

Sorry I was thinking of those talking devices like alexa.

12:35 pm

hokie carla

no, this was my MacBook autocorrect when I just typed it

12:36 pm

zoozzoom

Yeah sorry I realised that after a few seconds.

12:37 pm

hokie carla

haha, realized

12:39 pm

zoozzoom

Both are valid and mean the same thing.

12:40 pm

MollyL

Oh God, the very thought of shoveling snow in November makes me sick.

12:41 pm

zoozzoom

Oh dear snow already! And Winter has only just started!

12:41 pm

hokie carla

yep, I wasn't telling you to change, just pointing out another difference. you all never use z's!

12:41 pm

zoozzoom

You all?

12:42 pm

hokie carla

non-american english speakers

12:42 pm

hokie carla

you're right, I meant "y'all"

12:42 pm

MollyL

They use z's. They think zed is the last letter of the alphabet : D

12:42 pm

zoozzoom

They?

12:42 pm

hokie carla

good point

12:43 pm

hokie carla

a to zed

12:43 pm

hokie carla

that was the weirdest concept ever to me when I first learned of it. why is z called zed?

12:44 pm

MollyL

"They" = people in British dominated countries. It's the cheque, favourite, realise thing

12:45 pm

MollyL

I lived with a French Canadian for a while who used all those, plus "washroom" instead of bathroom.
